Explanation of Responses:

*	If the form is filed by more than one reporting person, see Instruction 4(b)(v).
**	Intentional misstatements or omissions of facts constitute Federal Criminal Violations. See 18 U.S.C. 1001 and 15 U.S.C. 78ff(a).
(1)	Represents restricted stock units issued to the Reporting Person as consideration for his service on the Issuer's Board of Directors. The awards will automatically vest in full on July 1, 2018, subject to earlier vesting if certain conditions are met.
(2)	The Reporting Person is filing this amendment to the Form 4, first filed on July 18, 2017, to reflect the transfer of 36,500 shares of the Issuer's common stock from PL Capital Plus Find, LP to Financial Edge Fund, LP. As noted below, PL Capital, LLC is the General Partner of Financial Edge Fund, LP. The transfer of shares from PL Capital Plus Find, LP to Financial Edge Fund, LP is an exempt transaction under Rule 16a-13 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, as the Reporting Person continues to maintain indirect ownership over such shares.
(3)	PL Capital, LLC is a Delaware limited liability company and the sole General Partner of Financial Edge Fund, L.P., Financial Edge-Strategic Fund, L.P. and PL Capital/Focused Fund, L.P., each a Delaware limited partnership. The Reporting Person is the holder of a 50% equity interest in, and one of two Managing Members of, PL Capital, LLC. He reports all shares held by the limited partnerships as it is impractical to determine his proportionate interest in such limited partnerships, which may include interests he holds as a direct or indirect limited partner. The Reporting Person disclaims beneficial ownership of the reported securities except to the extent of his pecuniary interest therein.
(4)	Goodbody/PL Capital, LLC is a Delaware limited liability company and the sole General Partner of Goodbody/PL Capital, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership. The Reporting Person is the holder of a 50% equity interest in, and one of two Managing Members of, Goodbody/PL Capital, LLC. He reports all shares held by the limited partnership as it is impractical to determine his proportionate interest in such limited partnerships, which may include interests he holds as a direct or indirect limited partner. The Reporting Person disclaims beneficial ownership of the reported securities except to the extent of his pecuniary interest therein.
