(the "Issuer"), the reporting person is entitled to receive additional shares of Issuer common stock, for no additional consideration, if the volume weighted average price of Issuer common stock over twenty trading days within any thirty trading day period exceeds certain thresholds (the "Earnout Rights"). Of these Earnout Rights, one half will be issued if the volume weighted average price of the Issuer common stock over twenty trading days within any thirty trading day period is greater than or equal to $12.50, and one half will be issued if the volume weighted average price of the Issuer common stock over twenty trading days within any thirty trading day period is greater than or equal to $15.00. Each of these conditions was met as of November 9, 2021.
