Explanation of Responses:
( 1)  There is no conversion price for the Class B Common Stock. It is convertible into shares of Class A Common Stock on a one-to-one basis.
( 2)  On April 20, 2015, Aerin Lauder Zinterhofer ("ALZ"), as sole trustee of the Aerin Lauder Zinterhofer 2008 Grantor Retained Annuity Trust ("ALZ 2008 GRAT"), caused the transfer by the ALZ 2008 GRAT of 9,751,892 shares of the Class B Common Stock to the Aerin Lauder Zinterhofer Trust U/A/D 4/24/00 ("ALZ 2000 Revocable Trust") (the "Transaction"). At the time of the Transaction, the ALZ 2000 Revocable Trust was the sole beneficiary of the ALZ 2008 GRAT by reason of having accepted, on such date, a transfer from ALZ of all of her interest in the ALZ 2008 GRAT for no consideration and already being the remainder interest holder of the ALZ 2008 GRAT.
( 3)  Shares of Class B Common Stock may be converted immediately into Class A Common Stock on a one-for-one basis by the holder and are automatically converted into Class A Common Stock on a one-for-one basis upon transfer to a person or entity that is not a "Permitted Transferee" or soon after a record date for a meeting of stockholders where the outstanding Class B Common Stock constitutes less than 10% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Issuer.
( 4)  Not applicable.
( 5)  By Aerin Lauder Zinterhofer 2008 GRAT.
( 6)  By Aerin Lauder Zinterhofer.
