(2)	On July 31, 2018, pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated April 25, 2018 (the "Merger Agreement"), among the Issuer, Eiger Merger Subsidiary LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Issuer ("Merger Sub"), and CYS Investments, Inc. ("CYS"), Merger Sub merged with and into CYS (the "Merger"), with CYS surviving the Merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of the Issuer.

As of the date of this report, the final merger consideration allocable to the reporting person is not available.
