The Reporting Person also holds an irrevocable proxy, pursuant to such voting agreements, over certain shares of Class A Common Stock held by such stockholders. Such stockholders have not furnished the Reporting Person with ownership information with respect to such shares of Class A Common Stock in connection with the preparation of this Schedule 13G, and the Reporting Person is not affiliated with such stockholders and does not have access to such ownership information, so for reporting purposes no such shares of Class A Common Stock are included in this Schedule 13G.
