The percent of class represented by the amount of Common Stock beneficially owned by each Reporting Person is based on the Issuer’s prospectus filed with the SEC on December 8, 2017, indicated that, following completion of the Issuer’s initial public offering, there would be 45,561,419 shares of Common Stock outstanding (including the over-allotment option exercised by the underwriters subsequent to the closing of the IPO).
   
 
In the aggregate, the Reporting Persons beneficially own 6,883,524 shares of Common Stock.  The Leah Faulkner Trust is the record holder of 3,441,780 shares of Common Stock.  The Chad Faulkner Trust is the record holder of 3,441,744 shares of Common Stock.  Mr. Faulkner is the advisor of the Family Trusts and as such holds the voting and dispositive power over the Common Stock held by the Family Trusts. Accordingly, the Reporting Persons share voting and dispositive power over 6,883,524 shares of Common Stock.  Such amount of securities beneficially owned by the Reporting Persons does not include unvested restricted stock units previously granted to Mr. Faulkner for service on the Issuer’s board of directors that are not exercisable within 60 days of December 31, 2017.  Other than for the purposes of Rule 13d-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, Mr. Faulkner expressly disclaims beneficial ownership of the shares of Common Stock held of record by the Family Trusts (except to the extent of his pecuniary interest therein), and nothing herein shall be deemed to be an admission by Mr. Faulkner as to the beneficial ownership of such shares.
