The Reporting Person resigned from his roles as president and a member of the board of directors on August 31, 2023.

        <footnote id="F7">(Continued from Footnote 6) AppFolio's Class B Shares do not have an expiration date. However, all of the outstanding Class B Shares will convert automatically into Class A Shares, on a one share-for-one share basis, on the date when the number of the Company's outstanding Class B Shares represents less than 10% of the sum of AppFolio's outstanding Class A Shares and Class B Shares.</footnote>
