These transactions relate to the issuance of shares of common stock to Spouse under the 2009 Plan. Of the shares issued on February 25, 2021, 78 shares were unrestricted shares issued upon settlement of performance-based share units. On August 5, 2021, Spouse subsequently sold 21 of these unrestricted shares, which caused the issuance of such 21 shares to be matchable under Section 16(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), against a sale by the reporting person on August 6, 2021, at a greater price per share of $229.52, which sale was previously reported. The reporting person has voluntarily disgorged to the issuer the full amount of the resulting statutory profit calculated pursuant to Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act. The remaining 279 shares sold by Spouse on August 5, 2021, were acquired from the Company under the 2009 Plan or the ESPP and were held for more than six months and the acquisition was therefore exempt under Rule 16b-3(d)(3).
