Explanation of Responses:
1. Each common stock equivalent is the economic equivalent of one share of common stock.
2. Represents restricted stock units acquired by the reports person under the 2019 Long-Term Incentive Plan and deferred under the DDCP on the grant date. Each restricted stock unit is the contingent right to receive one share of Issuer common stock. Restricted stock units will fully vest on March 31, 2021 and vested shares will be delivered to the reporting person based on the terms of the DDCP and the reporting persons distribution elections thereunder.
3. Represents common share equivalents acquired by the reporting person in the DDCP pursuant to the reinvestment of dividends received during the quarter on common share equivalents held in the DDCP by the reporting person at the time such dividend was paid on the underlying shares, based upon closing price of the underlying shares on the last day of the quarter. Common share equivalents received for dividend reinvestments fully vested on the transaction date listed above and become payable upon termination of service as a director.
4. This amount reflects an adjustment to the amount included on the reporting persons last Form 4. That Form 4 included 634.5769 shares which were incorrectly reported as acquired in connection with the 3/31/2020 Directors Deferred Compensation Plan (DDCP) quarterly payment which were paid in cash and not share equivalents as previously reported.
