Explanation of Responses:
(1) Represents shares of Common Stock that were either tendered in the tender offer at a price of $56.00 per share in cash and less applicable tax withholding, or shares of Common Stock that, pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement and immediately prior to the effective time of the merger, were cancelled and converted into the right to receive $56.00 per share in cash and less applicable tax withholding. JANA Partners LLC is a private money management firm which beneficially owns the securities reported herein through various accounts under its management and control.
(2) Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement and Plan of Merger dated November 15, 2020 (the "Merger Agreement"), among The Home Depot, Inc. ("Parent"), Coronado Acquisition Sub Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent ("Merger Sub") and HD Supply Holdings, Inc. (the "Issuer"), on December 24, 2020, Merger Sub completed a cash tender offer for shares of common stock of the Issuer and thereafter merged with and into the Issuer (the "Merger"). Immediately prior to the effective time of the merger, each outstanding Issuer restricted stock unit and deferred stock unit, whether vested or unvested, was cancelled and converted into the right to receive $56.00 in cash less applicable tax withholding. The units were granted to Scott Ostfeld ("Mr. Ostfeld") as a director of Issuer. Mr. Ostfeld is a Partner of JANA Partners LLC ("JANA") and has assigned all rights to the units to JANA. Pursuant to the assignment, cash settlement of the award pursuant to the Merger Agreement will be made to JANA.

Remarks:
JANA may be deemed to be a director by deputization for purposes of Section 16 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 by virtue of the fact that Mr. Ostfeld served on the board of directors of the Issuer. JANA disclaims any beneficial ownership of any and all of Issuer's securities reported herein in excess of its actual pecuniary interest.
