Explanation of Responses:

1. In connection with the vesting and settlement of restricted stock units through the issuance of Issuer's common stock, par value $0.01 per share ("Common Stock") pursuant to the Issuer's 2020 Long Term Incentive Plan, the Issuer withheld Common Stock that would otherwise have been issued to the Reporting Person to satisfy her tax withholding obligations. The number of shares of Common Stock withheld was determined based on the closing price per share of Common stock on January 21, 2026.

2. The Reporting Person was granted 8,642 Restricted Stock Units by the Issuer as part of her ordinary course annual compensation package pursuant to the Issuer's LTIP. Each Restricted Stock Unit represents a contingent right to receive one share Common Stock.

3. The Reporting Person was granted 2,700 target Performance Share Units ("Target Performance Units") by the Issuer as part of her ordinary course annual compensation package pursuant to the LTIP. Each Performance Share Unit represents a contingent right to receive a number of shares of Common Stock, ranging from zero to 200% of Target Performance Units ("Earned Performance Units"), depending on the Company's total shareholder return ("TSR") over a three-year measurement period beginning January 1, 2026. However, if the number of Earned Performance Units exceeds the number of Target Performance Units, then such excess will be settled in cash rather than Common Stock.

4. The Reporting Person was granted 2,160 target Market Stock Units ("Target MSUs") by the Issuer as part of her ordinary course annual compensation package pursuant to the LTIP. Each Market Stock Unit represents a contingent right to receive a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the Target MSUs multiplied by a factor reflecting the cumulative TSR over a three-year period beginning January 1, 2026, which factor is based on the Company's ending stock price plus cumulative dividends paid for such period divided by the Company's beginning stock price for such period. The number of Market Stock Units earned by Reporting person shall not exceed 200% of the Target MSUs.
