Explanation of Responses:

1. Each restricted stock unit ("RSU") is equivalent to one share of common stock upon vesting.

2. This is a settlement of a non- derivative performance award. In 2018, Mr. Newlin was granted an award of PRSUs ("2018 PRSUs"), split into eight equally-weighted tranches, to be earned based on performance against predetermined Adjusted EBITDA performance goals over eight equally-weighted measurement periods within the three-year period beginning January 1, 2017 and ending December 31, 2019. Each tranche would be deemed earned, if at all, following the certification of performance goal attainment by the Compensation Committee following the applicable performance period and would vest, subject to continued employment through such date, on December 31, 2020. Due to his separation from the company as an executive Tranches 1, 2, 5 and 6 all vested. The shares were held and delivered on July 1, 2020.

3. Shares withheld by Registrant to satisfy the minimum statutory tax withholding requirements on settlement of restricted stock units. No shares were sold.

4. On February 6, 2018 the reporting person was granted 50,340 restricted stock units, vesting in three equal annual installments beginning on February 6, 2019 subject to the reporting person continuing to be employed through each such date. The shares were held and delivered on July 1, 2020.

5. On February 7, 2019 the reporting person was granted 31,020 restricted stock units, vesting in three equal annual installments beginning on February 7, 2020 subject to the reporting person continuing to be employed through each such date. The shares were held and delivered on July 1, 2020.
