Explanation of Responses:

Id Content
F1 Each restricted stock unit ("RSU") represents a contingent right to receive one share of the Issuer's Class A Common Stock.
F2 Represents shares sold by the Reporting Person to cover tax withholding obligations in connection with the vesting of restricted stock and/or restricted stock units. Sales to cover tax withholding obligations in connection with the vesting of such securities do not represent discretionary trades by the Reporting Person. The Issuer's equity incentive plans allow the Issuer to require that satisfaction of tax withholding obligations be funded by a "sell to cover" transaction.
F3 The RSUs vest as follows: 25% of the underlying shares vested on May 1, 2024, then 36 equal monthly installments thereafter.
F4 The RSUs vest as follows: 2/48ths of the underlying shares vested on May 1, 2024, then 46 equal monthly installments thereafter.
