Explanation of Responses:
(1)  As reported in Forms 4 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") on November 30, 2017, January 4, 2018 April 3, 2018, and July 3, 2018, the reporting person, for no consideration, previously transferred to Ayers Asset Management, Inc. ("AAM") 8,169 shares of Common Stock that the Company paid him as compensation for services rendered to the Company. AAM issued 8,169 Restricted Stock Units ("RSUs") to certain AAM employees (each, a "Grantee" and, collectively, the "Grantees") as additional compensation for services rendered and to be rendered by such Grantees to AAM. The 8,169 RSUs that were awarded to Grantees are convertible on a one-for-one basis into a corresponding number of shares of Common Stock.
(2)  On July 2, 2019, as a result of a Grantee's termination from employment with AAM, the Grantee forfeited 100 unvested RSUs, which were (i) vested in their entirety, (ii) converted on a one-for-one basis into shares of Common Stock, and (iii) gifted to the Middle Tennessee Council, Inc., Boy Scouts of America.
