The number of shares reported by each filing person (other than Eastern Capital Group LLC and The Troesh Family Foundation) represents, in whole or in part, as specified below, a right to acquire shares of Class A Common Stock upon redemption or exchange of common membership interests (“Common Units”) of Switch, Ltd., a subsidiary of Switch, Inc. Holders of Common Units are entitled to have their Common Units redeemed for shares of Class A Common Stock of Switch, Inc. (the “Class A Common Stock”), on a one-for-one basis or, at the election of Switch, Inc., cash equal to a volume weighted average market price of a share of Class A Common Stock. Switch, Inc., has the right to elect a direct exchange of Class A Common Stock or the cash payment for the filing person’s Common Units. Upon the redemption or exchange of Common Units, an equal number of shares of Class B Common Stock (which have voting rights only) owned by the reporting person will be forfeited and cancelled.

The percentage of outstanding Class A Common Stock reported by each filing person (other than Eastern Capital Group LLC and The Troesh Family Foundation) assumes that the Common Units held by such filing person were redeemed or exchanged for an equal number of shares of Class A Common Stock. The percentages were calculated assuming 118,983,644 shares of Class A Common Stock outstanding (as reported by Switch, Inc., on its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed on November 9, 2020, as being outstanding as of November 5, 2020), plus the number of shares each filing person may acquire upon the redemption of its Common Units.

On November 5, 2020, Eastern Capital Group LLC was issued 201,204 shares of Class A Common Stock of Switch, Inc., upon the redemption of 201,204 Common Units of Switch, Ltd., held by Eastern Capital Group LLC. In connection with such redemption, 201,204 shares of Class B Common Stock of Switch, Inc. (which had voting rights only), were forfeited by Eastern Capital Group LLC and cancelled. No additional consideration was paid by Eastern Capital Group LLC for the shares of Class A Common Stock of Switch, Inc., issued to it.
