Upon vesting, each Restricted Stock Unit settled for one share of Class A Common Stock of the Issuer.

Footnote F2

Represents shares surrendered to the Issuer in connection with the vesting of restricted stock units to satisfy the income tax withholding and remittance obligations of the Reporting Person at a net settlement price equal to the closing price of Class A Common Stock on the New York Stock Exchange on the vesting date and does not represent a sale by the Reporting Person.

Footnote F3

Represents shares of Class A common stock acquired upon the partial vesting of a performance restricted stock unit grant originally eligible to vest based on the achievement of multiple independent performance criteria. The Company achieved 100% of the target for the performance criteria related to ESG ratings improvement, which accounted for 10% of the total vesting weighting. Because the remaining performance criteria were not achieved, the corresponding 90% of the total target award opportunity was unearned and cancelled without any share issuance.
