(1) The option was granted on December 17, 2014, subject to shareholder approval at the Company's 2015 Annual Meeting of Shareholders of an amendment to increase the number of shares of common stock available for issuance under the Company's 2013 Equity Incentive Plan. Such shareholder approval was received on June 24, 2015.

(3) Amended to reflect correct transaction date.
(4) The option was granted on December 17, 2014 and vests 30% upon satisfaction of certain performance conditions, and then monthly thereafter in equal proportions over a three-year period beginning on the date the performance conditions are satisfied. On July 25, 2015 the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of the Issuer determined that the performance criteria were met, resulting in vesting of 30% of the option and the beginning of the three-year monthly vesting period.
