* | If the form is filed by more than one reporting person, see Instruction 4(b)(v). |
** | Intentional misstatements or omissions of facts constitute Federal Criminal Violations. See 18 U.S.C. 1001 and 15 U.S.C. 78ff(a). |
(1) | On March 2, 2021, the Reporting Person was granted a performance-based stock option award to purchase up to 1,000,000 shares of common stock (the "Award") if and to the extent the five equal tranches of the Award are earned based on the achievement of certain absolute revenue and stock price goals. On September 8, 2022, achievement of the revenue goal for the second tranche of 200,000 shares under the Award was certified, which resulted in the creation of the derivative security reported in this filing. This second tranche will be earned and exercisable only if and when the applicable $60 stock price goal achievement is certified. |
