(2)	Pursuant to the terms of the Company's equity incentive plan, represents shares withheld by the Company to satisfy the tax liability incurred upon the vesting of one-third of the time-vested RSUs granted May 10, 2017.
(3)	Each RSU represents a contingent right to receive one share of common stock.
(4)	Vesting of time-based RSUs occurs pro rata on each of the first, second and third anniversaries of the date of grant. The time-vested RSUs have no voting or dividend rights.
(5)	Each performance-based RSU represents a contingent right to receive one share of common stock. The number of reported performance-based RSUs represents the target award, with grantees having the potential to earn a number of shares up to 200% of the target award. The performance-based RSUs have no voting or dividend rights.
(6)	Vesting of the performance-based RSUs occurs on the third anniversary of the grant date (between 0 and 51,660 shares), subject to the Company's cumulative growth in "LTI Book Value" per share (as defined in the grant document). Payouts are generally subject to a one-year holding period after vesting.
