        <footnote id="F1">The Issuer awarded the Reporting Person 52,301 time-based Restricted Stock Units (&quot;RSUs&quot;), each of which represents a contingent right to receive one share of the Issuer's Class E Common Stock, and will vest in equal, 25% installments on each of December 31, 2019, 2020, 2021 and 2022, provided that the Reporting Person remains continuously employed by the Issuer on each such date, subject to certain accelerated vesting provisions as provided in the award agreement for the RSUs.  The shares of Class E Common Stock underlying the RSUs will not be delivered upon vesting, but instead will be deferred for delivery on May 1, 2023, or, if sooner, upon the Reporting Person's termination of employment.</footnote>
