        <footnote id="F1">These Class M-4 Prime common shares are exchangeable into Class A common shares, on a one-to-one basis, once vested and upon payment of the conversion price (which can be paid in cash or shares).</footnote>
        <footnote id="F2">This reported transaction represents shares withheld to satisfy tax withholding obligations in connection with the vesting of Class M-4 Prime common shares.  The price of derivative security represents the per share value of the Class M-4 Prime common shares used to calculate the number of shares withheld.</footnote>
        <footnote id="F3">One-third of these Class M-4 Prime common shares vest based on time, with such shares vesting ratably on each of the first five anniversaries of the May 15, 2016 vesting start date; one-third vest upon the trading price of the Class A common shares attaining a per-share volume weighted average closing trading price of $50 or more during any 120-day period (or upon a sale or change in control in which Class A common shares are valued at $50 or more); and one-third vest upon the trading price of the Class A common shares attaining a per-share volume weighted average closing trading price of $70 or more during any 120-day period (or upon a sale or change in control in which Class A common shares are valued at $70 or more). Once vested, these Class M-4 Prime common shares have no expiration date and can be converted at the holder's election into Class A common shares at any time. Any remaining unvested Class M-4 Prime common shares expire May 15, 2026.</footnote>
