        <footnote id="F1">Represents restricted stock units (&quot;RSUs&quot;), each of which represents a contingent right to receive a share of Class A Common Stock of the Issuer following the vesting date. The RSUs will vest in equal annual installments on each of March 10, 2027, 2028 and 2029, generally subject to the reporting person's continued service.</footnote>
        <footnote id="F2">Represents a grant of performance RSUs (&quot;PSUs&quot;) at the minimum number of shares that can be earned. The PSUs will cliff vest on March 10, 2029 following determination of actual performance at the end of a three-year performance period ending December 31, 2028, generally subject to the reporting person's continued service. The amount of the PSUs that ultimately vests may be greater than the amount reported herein, based on such actual performance.</footnote>
