* Ms. Bertsch served on our Board of Directors prior to the Spin-off and has been a director since 2013. Our Board of Directors has determined that Mses. Bertsch, Niland and Piasecki and Messrs. Burbach, Jaska, Krieg, Melvin and Richardson are independent. Mr. Nardelli, who has served on our Board of Directors since 2014, is not standing for re-election as part of the Board's succession process. Director nominees must receive a majority of the votes cast at the Annual Meeting in order to be elected to the Board of Directors. In a contested election, director nominees are elected by a plurality of the votes cast by the shares of our common stock entitled to vote in the election of directors.

| Our Board recommends that you vote "FOR" each of the director nominees. |
