In connection with the filing of the 2021 Prospectus Supplement, the Company made a contemporaneous fee payment to the SEC in the amount of $81,825. All such shares remained unsold and were carried forward to the Company's Registration Statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-273784), filed with the SEC on August 8, 2023 (the "2023 Registration Statement") pursuant to Rule 415(a)(6).

In connection with the filing of the 2025 Prospectus Supplement, the Company made a contemporaneous fee payment in the amount of $34,525, reflecting the fee due with respect to shares of common stock to be offered and sold pursuant to the 2025 Prospectus Supplement that were not unsold securities registered pursuant to the 2021 Prospectus Supplement and the 2021 Registration Statement. Pursuant to Rule 415(a)(6) under the Securities Act, securities with an aggregate offering price of $1,000,000,000 (collectively, the "Carry Forward Securities") are unsold securities previously registered on the 2023 Registration Statement, for which filing fees of $116,350, in the aggregate, were previously paid to the Securities and Exchange Commission on the dates described above and will continue to be applied to such Carry Forward Securities. Pursuant to Rule 415(a)(6), the offering of the Carry Forward Securities under the 2023 Registration Statement was deemed terminated as of the immediate effectiveness of this registration statement.</ffd:OfferingNote>
