(1) Received in exchange for 5,379 shares of Almost Family, Inc. ("Almost Family") common stock in connection with the merger of Almost Family with and into the Issuer (the "Merger"). In the Merger, each share of Almost common stock was converted into the right to receive 0.9150 shares of Issuer common stock.
(2) Restricted shares received in connection with the reporting person's commencement of employment with the issuer. The restricted stock will vest as to twenty percent (20%) of the shares on each of the first five anniversaries of the first day of the first full month following the effective date of the Merger (April 1, 2018).
