**	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 31, 2019, 857,115 performance-vesting restricted stock units held by the reporting person vested. Pursuant to the terms of his restricted stock unit award agreement, the Company withheld 451,272 of the shares otherwise deliverable to him in order to satisfy the resulting tax withholding obligation. As a result, the reporting person received 405,843 shares of the Company's common stock after the satisfaction of the tax withholding obligation. As the performance conditions underlying this restricted stock unit award were not achieved at the maximum level, 656,202 previously reported restricted stock units did not vest.
(2)	Following the transactions reported on this Form 4, the reporting person directly held (a) 2,312,760 shares of the Company's common stock and (b) 986,576 performance-vesting restricted stock units, each representing the right to receive one share of the Company's common stock.
(3)	The reporting person and Brian G. Kelly are the managers of ASAC II LLC. The reporting person disclaims beneficial ownership of the Company's common stock held by ASAC II LLC except to the extent of his pecuniary interest therein.
(4)	The reporting person disclaims beneficial ownership of the Company's common stock held by these UTMAs except to the extent of his pecuniary interest therein.
(5)	These shares are held by grantor retained annuity trusts for the benefit of the reporting person's children, of which the reporting person is the trustee.
