or through its affiliates, does not engage in commercial banking or significant proprietary trading activities. We were founded on the belief that there is an opportunity within the investment banking industry for a firm free of the potential
conflicts of interest created within large, multi-product capital intensive financial institutions. We believe that maintaining standards of excellence and integrity in our core businesses demands a spirit of cooperation and <FONT

result from changes to the overall business structure or reporting. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Our Investment Banking&nbsp;&amp; Equities segment includes our

&#147;FATCA&#148;), a 30% United States federal withholding tax may apply to any dividends paid on our Class&nbsp;A common stock to (i)&nbsp;a &#147;foreign financial institution&#148; (as specifically defined in the Code and whether such foreign
financial institution is the beneficial owner or an intermediary) which does not provide sufficient documentation, typically on IRS Form <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap"><FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">W-8BEN-E,</FONT></FONT> evidencing either
(x)&nbsp;an exemption from FATCA, or (y)&nbsp;its compliance (or deemed compliance) with FATCA (which may alternatively be in the form of compliance with an intergovernmental agreement with the United States) in a manner which avoids withholding, or
(ii)&nbsp;a <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">&#147;non-financial</FONT> foreign entity&#148; (as specifically defined in the Code and whether such <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">non-financial</FONT> foreign entity is the beneficial owner or an
intermediary) which does not provide sufficient documentation, typically on IRS Form <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap"><FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">W-8BEN-E,</FONT></FONT> evidencing either (x)&nbsp;an exemption from FATCA, or (y)&nbsp;adequate
information regarding certain substantial United States beneficial owners of such entity (if any). If a dividend payment is both subject to withholding under FATCA and subject to the withholding tax discussed above under &#147;&#151;Dividends,&#148;
an applicable withholding agent may credit the withholding under FATCA against, and therefore reduce, such other withholding tax. While withholding under FATCA would also have applied to payments of gross proceeds from the sale or other taxable
disposition of our Class&nbsp;A common stock, proposed United States Treasury regulations (upon which taxpayers may rely until final regulations are issued) eliminate FATCA withholding on payments of gross proceeds entirely. You should consult your
own tax advisors regarding these requirements and whether they may be relevant to your ownership and disposition of our Class&nbsp;A common stock. </P>
