(d) With the exception of certain discretionary trusts for which there are one or more trustees other than the Reporting Person, no other person is known to have the right to receive or the power to direct the receipt of dividends from, or any proceeds from the sale of, securities beneficially owned by the Reporting Persons.

(e) The Reporting Persons have ceased to be the beneficial ownership of more than five percent (5%) of the Issuer’s Common Stock, effective as of October 31, 2022. The filing of this Amendment constitutes an exit filing for the Reporting Persons.
