F1: Shares issued directly to the reporting person's qualified pension plan.

F2: Price equals the fair market value of the shares on the date of authorization.

F3: Of the amount shown, 19,593 shares are held in the qualified pension plan account of the reporting person and 1,221 shares were issued pursuant to a program under the Company's Equity Incentive Plan, are not fully vested and are subject to certain repurchase rights.

F4: On July 1, 2013, Advanced Emissions Solutions, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("Issuer"), became the successor of ADA-ES, Inc., a Colorado corporation ("ADA"), pursuant to a reorganization whereby a wholly owned subsidiary of Issuer was merged with and into ADA, with ADA continuing as the surviving entity and becoming a wholly owned subsidiary of Issuer. In the merger, each outstanding share of ADA common stock, no par value, immediately prior to the merger was automatically converted into one share of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, of Issuer ("Issuer Common Stock"). All stock-based benefit plans of ADA were assumed by Issuer and, going forward, Issuer Common Stock will be issued upon the vesting of any stock-based awards or the exercise of options to reflect the substitution of the Issuer's Common Stock for ADA's common stock. The reorganization did not alter the proportionate interests of security holders.
