Explanation of Responses:

( 1 )This Form 3/A is filed jointly by Voss Value Master Fund, L.P. ("Voss Value Master Fund"), Voss Value-Oriented Special Situations Fund, L.P. ("Voss Value-Oriented Special Situations Fund"), Voss Advisors GP, LLC ("Voss GP"), Voss Capital, LLC ("Voss Capital") and Travis W. Cocke (collectively, the "Reporting Persons"). Each Reporting Person disclaims beneficial ownership of the securities reported herein except to the extent of his or its pecuniary interest therein, and this report shall not be deemed to be an admission that any Reporting Person is the beneficial owner of such securities for purposes of Section 16 or for any other purpose. Since the Securities and Exchange Commission's electronic filing system only accepts a maximum of 30 lines per Table, this report is the second in a series of two reports being filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. ( 2 )Securities owned directly by Voss Value Master Fund. Voss GP, as the general partner of Voss Value Master Fund, may be deemed to beneficially own the securities owned directly by Voss Value Master Fund. Voss Capital, as the investment manager of Voss Value Master Fund, may be deemed to beneficially own the securities owned directly by Voss Value Master Fund. Mr. Cocke, as the managing member of Voss Capital and Voss GP, may be deemed to beneficially own the securities owned directly by Voss Value Master Fund. ( 3 )Securities owned directly by Voss Value-Oriented Special Situations Fund. Voss GP, as the general partner of Voss Value-Oriented Special Situations Fund, may be deemed to beneficially own the securities owned directly by Voss Value-Oriented Special Situations Fund. Voss Capital, as the investment manager of Voss Value-Oriented Special Situations Fund, may be deemed to beneficially own the securities owned directly by Voss Value-Oriented Special Situations Fund. Mr. Cocke, as the managing member of Voss Capital and Voss GP, may be deemed to beneficially own the securities owned directly by Voss Value-Oriented Special Situations Fund. ( 4 )Securities held in certain accounts separately managed by Voss Capital (the "Voss Managed Accounts"). Voss Capital, as the investment manager of the Voss Managed Accounts, may be deemed to beneficially own the securities held in the Voss Managed Accounts. Mr. Cocke, as the managing member of Voss Capital, may be deemed to beneficially own the securities held in the Voss Managed Accounts. ( 5 )Such options are exercisable as of the date hereof and were immediately exercisable upon their acquisition.

Remarks: The two-part Form 3, filed on January 11, 2023, and subsequent Forms 4 filed on January 11, 2023 and January 24, 2023 (in two parts), were filed timely and under the correct names of Voss Value Master Fund and Voss Value-Oriented Special Situations Fund, each a Reporting Person, but were either inadvertently filed without the CIK codes for Voss Value Master Fund and Voss Value-Oriented Special Situations Fund, or using the incorrect CIK code for Voss Value Master Fund. This amendment corrects the CIK codes for Voss Value Master Fund and Voss Value-Oriented Special Situations Fund, and re-reports the Reporting Persons' holdings as of January 11, 2023. Mr. Cocke is a director of the Issuer. For purposes of Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, each of the Reporting Persons (other than Mr. Cocke) may be deemed a director by deputization by virtue of Mr. Cocke's service on the Board of Directors of the Issuer.

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