Explanation of Responses:

1. Represents a supplemental equity award consisting of restricted stock units and performance stock units to promote retention of key executives and to incentivize share price appreciation measured against predetermined stock prices.

2. Represents the portion of the supplemental equity award granted as performance stock units, which are eligible to vest, if at all, based on the achievement of predetermined 20-trading-day average closing stock prices during a four-year performance period, subject to the reporting person's continued employment through the applicable vesting date. The performance stock units are divided into three tranches: 33% eligible to be earned upon a 20-trading-day average closing price of $24.18, 33% upon a 20-trading-day average closing price of $31.43, and 34% upon a 20-trading-day average closing price of $38.68. For each tranche, the vesting date is the later of the third anniversary of the grant date September 1, 2029, and the date the applicable stock price is attained.
