Explanation of Responses:

1. Restricted stock units ("RSU") convert into common stock on a one-for-one basis.

2. Represents the number of shares required to be sold by the Reporting Person to cover tax withholding obligations in connection with the vesting of RSUs. These sales are mandated by the Issuer's election under its equity incentive plans to require the satisfaction of a tax withholding obligation to be funded by a "sell to cover" transaction and do not represent discretionary trades by the Reporting Person.

3. Each RSU represents a contingent right to receive one share of Issuer's common stock.

4. The RSUs vested as to 33.33% of the total shares on November 30, 2021 and November 30, 2022, and thereafter vests as to 33.33% of the total RSUs on November 30, 2023, subject to the provision of services to the Company on each vesting date.
