| Explanation of Responses: |
| 1. The Reporting Person's beneficial ownership of 1,451,714 shares of Common Stock represents approximately 10.99% of the 13,210,145 shares of Common Stock outstanding as reported in the Issuer's Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on June 29, 2026 (Accession No. 0001213900-26-073352). The Reporting Person's percentage ownership increased above 10% solely as a result of the reduction in the Issuer's outstanding shares effected through the Issuer's ongoing share repurchase program, and not as a result of any acquisition of additional shares by the Reporting Person. The Reporting Person's most recent purchase of the Issuer's Common Stock was completed on April 17, 2026, at which time the Reporting Person's percentage ownership was less than 10% |
| 2. The 665,000 shares reported as held indirectly in a joint account with the Reporting Person's spouse are held in a joint account with rights of survivorship (JTWROS). The Reporting Person and the Reporting Person's spouse share voting and dispositive power over the shares held in the JTWROS account. |
| 3. The Reporting Person's spouse holds 84,166 additional shares of the Issuer's Common Stock in an individual retirement account titled solely in the spouse's name. Those shares are not included in the beneficial ownership reported in this Form 3. The Reporting Person and the Reporting Person's spouse have been legally separated since 2024, proceedings for the dissolution of the marriage were filed in 2024 and remain pending, and the Reporting Person and the Reporting Person's spouse have maintained separate residences continuously since the date of separation. The Reporting Person has neither the power to vote or direct the voting of, nor the power to dispose or direct the disposition of, the 84,166 shares held in the spouse's individual retirement account, and has no direct or indirect pecuniary interest therein. The Rule 16a-1(a)(2)(ii)(A) presumption of household attribution is rebutted by these facts. |
| 4. The Reporting Person holds the Common Stock reported herein for investment purposes only and not with the purpose or effect of changing or influencing control of the Issuer. |
