The reporting person is an employee benefit plan subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended, with individual accounts for the benefit of participating employees and their beneficiaries. The reporting person’s assets are held in trust by the Plan. The number of shares listed as beneficially owned represents the entire number of shares of Common Stock held by the Plan as of December 31, 2017. As of December 31, 2017, 259,320 shares of Common Stock were allocated to individual accounts established for participating employees and their beneficiaries and 383,856 unallocated shares were held and were available for allocation in future years. In general, participating employees and their beneficiaries have the power and authority to direct the voting of shares of Common Stock allocated to their individual accounts through the Plan trustee, who has shared voting power over the allocated Common Stock. Any unallocated Common Stock is generally required to be voted by the Plan trustee in the same manner that the majority of the shares of Company Stock which have been allocated to the accounts of individual participants and beneficiaries are actually voted thereby, subject in each case to the fiduciary duties of the Plan trustee and applicable law. The Plan trustee directs the Plan’s custodian, Delaware Charter Guarantee & Trust Company d/b/a Principal Trust Company, how to vote the shares of Common Stock held in the Plan.
| Item 5. | Ownership of Five Percent or Less of a Class. |
