F4 In accordance with Rule 16b-3, shares reported as disposed of were withheld by the Issuer in a transaction exempt from Section 16(b) and not issued to the reporting person in order to cover withholding taxes incidental to the vesting of restricted stock units or performance-based restricted stock units.

F9 The vesting of this performance-based restricted stock unit ("PSU") award is dependent upon (i) achievement of performance criteria measured during a three-year performance period beginning on December 15, 2023 and ending December 10, 2026 and (ii) a service-based vesting component to be satisfied upon certification of the achievement of the performance criteria. Each PSU represents a right to receive, upon vesting, one share of Class A common stock. The number of shares reported is at the target award amount. The reporting person may potentially earn from 0% to 200% of the target award amount based on achievement of annualized total shareholder return compared to the S&P Mid Cap 400 Index at the end of the three-year performance period. The actual PSU award earned shall vest upon certification by the Company's Compensation Committee of the achievement of the performance criteria, following the end of the three-year performance period.

F11 The vesting of the PSU award was dependent upon the achievement of performance criteria measured during a three-year performance period beginning on December 15, 2020 and ending December 12, 2023. The reporting person was eligible to earn from 0% to 200% of the target award amount (which was 7,136 shares) based on achievement of annualized total shareholder return compared to the S&P Mid Cap 400 Index at the end of the three-year performance period. Following the end of the three-year performance period, the Issuer's Compensation Committee certified the achievement of the performance criteria at 80.41% of the target award amount resulting in the vesting of 5,738 PSUs. The remaining 1,398 PSUs were cancelled. The service-based vesting component of the PSU award was satisfied upon certification of the achievement of the performance criteria.
