| | <footnote id="F1"> Price per share is the closing price of Seneca Foods Corporation Class B common stock on the date of the gift. </footnote> |
| | <footnote id="F2"> These holdings reflect the Reporting Person's units in the Seneca Foods Corporation Stock Fund (the "Stock Fund") under the 401(k) Plan. The Stock Fund is a unitized stock fund that holds shares of Class A common stock as well as shares of Class B common stock. A cash balance is also maintained in the Stock Fund to facilitate transfers between investment fund options in the 401(k) Plan. The actual number of shares of Class A common stock and Class B common stock owned by the Reporting Person fluctuates daily based on the Stock Fund's aggregate holdings. The Reporting Person's holdings under the 401(k) Plan also include additional units acquired in connection with elective deferrals and Company matching contributions since the Reporting Person's last beneficial ownership report. Those transactions were exempt from reporting pursuant to Rule 16a-3(f)(1)(i)(B). </footnote> |
