Explanation of Responses:

Id Content
F1 These shares of Class A common stock reflect the settlement, on December 3, 2023, of restricted stock units ("RSUs") granted to the Reporting Person pursuant to the 2021 Equity Incentive Plan, each of which was converted into a share of Issuer's Class A common stock on a 1-for-1 basis.
F2 Held of record by A Series Investments, LLC. Ms. Acharia is the Founder and Chief Executive Officer of A Series Investments, LLC and therefore may be deemed to beneficially own all of the shares held of record thereby; however, Ms. Acharia disclaims beneficial ownership except to the extent of her pecuniary interest therein, and this report shall not be deemed an admission that she is the beneficial owner of the securities for purposes of Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or for any other purpose.
F3 Each RSU represents a contingent right to receive one share of the Issuer's Class A common stock, subject to the Reporting Person's continued status as a service provider to the Issuer.
F4 The remaining 29,034 RSUs vested on the transaction date.
F5 These RSUs do not expire; they either vest or are cancelled prior to the vesting date.
