F2 The Reporting Person was granted RSUs, which represent a contingent right to receive on share of Class A Common Stock for each RSU. The RSUs are fully vested.
F3 The sales reported on this Form 4 represent shares required to be sold by the Reporting Person to cover tax withholding obligations in connection with the vesting and settlement of RSUs. These sales are mandated by the Issuer's election under its equity incentive plans to require the satisfaction of tax withholding obligations to be funded by a "sell to cover" transaction and do not represent discretionary trades by the Reporting Person.

The Reporting Person undertakes to provide to the Issuer, any security holder of the Issuer, or the Securities and Exchange Commission, upon request, full information regarding the number of shares sold at each separate price within the ranges set forth herein.
