Explanation of Responses:
(1) The amount reported represents the number of shares of Issuer common stock subject to the Issuer Restricted Stock Unit ("RSU") awards held by Ms. Chen, each of which will be accelerated, fully vested and canceled as of immediately prior to the Effective Time of the merger upon a qualifying termination in exchange for an amount in cash equal to the product obtained by multiplying (1) the aggregate number of shares of Issuer common stock subject to the Issuer RSU award by (2) the merger consideration of $22.00 per share.
(2) Represents 15,074 shares outstanding.
(3) Represents 92,053 vested RSUs.
(4) 25% of the SARs vest upon the one-year anniversary of the grant date, and an additional 6.25% of the SARS vest at the end of each calendar quarter thereafter. This SAR is being canceled as of immediately prior to the Effective Time of the Merger in exchange for an amount in cash equal to the product obtained by multiplying (1) the aggregate number of shares of Issuer common stock subject to the SAR award by (2) the difference between the base price of the SAR and the merger consideration of $22.00 per share.
