The amount reported reflects additional restricted stock of the Issuer issued to the reporting person as a result of the adjustment of certain unvested restricted stock held by the reporting person in connection with the Spin-Off. Such adjustment was made based upon on the relative volume weighted average per share prices (trading "regular way") of Occidental common stock on four-day trading periods ending November 28, 2014 and December 4, 2014, respectively.
