1. (F1)Pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger entered into on February 1, 2026, by and among the Issuer, Devon Energy Corporation ("Devon") and Cubs Merger Sub, Inc. (the "Merger Agreement"), at the effective time of the transactions contemplated thereby (the "Effective Time"), certain restricted stock units granted to the Reporting Person on July 10, 2023 and payable solely in shares of the Issuer's common stock, par value $0.10 per share ("Issuer Common Stock"), accelerated and vested. The reported disposition represents shares of Issuer Common Stock withheld by the Issuer to satisfy the Reporting Person's tax obligations related to the vesting of such previously disclosed award of restricted stock units, not a sale transaction by the Reporting Person.
2. (F2)Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, at the Effective Time, certain restricted stock units granted to the Reporting Person on February 21, 2024 and payable solely in shares of Issuer Common Stock accelerated and vested. The reported disposition represents shares of Issuer Common Stock withheld by the Issuer to satisfy the Reporting Person's tax obligations related to the vesting of such previously disclosed award of restricted stock units, not a sale transaction by the Reporting Person.
3. (F3)Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, at the Effective Time, this award of performance stock units granted to the Reporting Person on February 21, 2024 (the "2024 PSU Award") was deemed earned as a result of the certification by the Compensation Committee of the Issuer to the achievement of the actual level of performance achieved under the terms of such 2024 PSU Award prior to the Effective Time. Each performance stock unit earned (up to 100% of the performance stock units awards) converted into Issuer Common Stock on a one-for-one basis and the remainder was paid to the Reporting Person in cash equal to the Fair Market Value (as defined in the 2024 PSU Award) of one share of Issuer Common Stock for vesting above 100%.
4. (F4)The reported disposition represents shares of Issuer Common Stock withheld by the Issuer to satisfy the Reporting Person's tax obligations related to the vesting of the 2024 PSU Award, not a sale transaction by the Reporting Person.
5. (F5)Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, as of the Effective Time, each share of Issuer Common Stock held by the Reporting Person as of immediately prior to the Effective Time was converted into the right to receive 0.7 shares of Devon Common Stock.
6. (F6)This amount includes 67,643 shares of Issuer Common Stock subject to awards of time-vesting restricted stock units ("Issuer RSU Awards") held by the Reporting Person that, as of the Effective Time, were converted, on the same terms and conditions, into time-based restricted stock unit awards covering a total number of shares of Devon Common Stock equal to the product of (i) the total number of shares of Issuer Common Stock subject to such Issuer RSU Awards as of immediately prior to the Effective Time, multiplied by (ii) 0.7.
7. (F7)Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, at the Effective Time, this award of performance stock units (an "Issuer PSU Award") was deemed earned at 100% of the target level as a result of the certification by the Compensation Committee of the Issuer to the actual level of performance achieved under the terms of such Issuer PSU Award prior to the Effective Time, and was converted, on the same terms and conditions (other than any continuing performance-based vesting conditions and cash settlement features), into a time-based restricted stock unit award covering a number of shares of Devon Common Stock equal to the product of (i) the target number of shares of Issuer Common Stock subject to such Issuer PSU Award as of immediately prior to the Effective Time, multiplied by (ii) 0.7.
