(2) Reflects the estimated number of shares required to be sold by the Company (as calculated based upon the net proceeds of the initial public offering) to pay the pre-offering shareholder distributions of approximately $9,952.

Subsequent to the initial public offering, the shares were actually outstanding and are therefore included in the "average shares outstanding" calculation above. 15
