Explanation of Responses:

1. Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units were previously reported on July 7, 2020, each of which represents a contingent right to receive one share of common stock of ATEN, with vesting subject to the achievement of specified levels of the volume weighted average closing prices of a share of ATEN common stock during any one hundred (100) day trading period between July 2, 2020 and July 2, 2024. The second achievement date occurred on March 12, 2021, as certified by the compensation committee of ATEN on March 23, 2021, resulting in 20,468 units meeting the appropriate performance-based conditions. However, these shares remain subject to time-based vesting conditions and will therefore vest as to one-third within 30 days of achievement of the milestone with an additional one-third to vest on each of the first and second anniversaries of achievement of the milestone, subject to continued employment. These shares are reflected on Table I.
