Explanation of Responses:

( 1 )5,103 common units of Digimarc LLC, of which issuer is the Managing Member and majority owner, were purchased by Mr. McCormack. Common units are generally redeemable after May 18, 2027 for an equal number of shares of the issuer's common stock or at the election of the issuer as Managing Member, cash equal to the fair market value of such shares. ( 2 )1,050,000 LTIP units of Digimarc LLC, of which issuer is the Managing Member and majority owner, were granted to Mr. McCormack. LTIP units are convertible after certain appreciation and vesting into common units of Digimarc LLC which are redeemable as described in footnote (1). 61,250 of the LTIP units were vested upon grant and 30,625 LTIP units time vest on June 30, 2026 and each subsequent calendar quarter end through September 30, 2028 based on continued service through the vesting date. The remaining 682,500 LTIP units vest based on achievement of specified stock price hurdles. Acceleration of vesting can occur upon certain events such as termination of employment.

Remarks: On May 15, 2026, Digimarc Parent, Inc. (which subsequently changed its name to Digimarc Corporation) ("New Digimarc") became the successor of Digimarc Corporation (which became a wholly-owned subsidiary of New Digimarc and was converted to an Oregon limited liability company) ("Old Digimarc") pursuant to an agreement and plan of reorganization, including an agreement and plan of merger attached thereto. The merger and reorganization resulted in New Digimarc's becoming a parent holding company of Old Digimarc, but did not alter the proportionate interests of security holders.

Reminder: Report on a separate line for each class of securities beneficially owned directly or indirectly.
