The reporting person has provided to the Issuer, and hereby undertakes to provide the SEC staff or a security holder of the Issuer, upon request, information regarding the number of shares sold at each respective price within the range set forth in this footnote.

4. RSUs granted to the reporting person on July 9, 2022, vest in sixteen (16) equal quarterly installments over a four (4) year period beginning October 9, 2022, and each quarter thereafter until fully-vested, subject to the reporting person's continuous service to the Issuer on such vesting dates.
