(2)  Restricted Stock Units ("RSUs") convert into shares of Class A Common Stock upon vesting on a one-for-one basis.
(3)  Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, each RSU, whether or not vested, immediately vested and was cancelled and converted into the right to receive a cash payment equal to the product of the total number of shares of Company Stock underlying such RSUs multiplied by the Merger Consideration (the "RSU Consideration"), except that RSUs granted on or after December 1, 2018 (other than RSUs required to be granted pursuant to employment agreements or offer letters) that were unvested as of the effective time of the Merger immediately vested in part on a prorated basis and were cancelled and converted into the right to receive the RSU Consideration on a prorated basis.

(5)  Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, each option that was outstanding and unexercised immediately prior to the Effective Time, whether or not vested or exercisable, was automatically canceled as of the Effective Time and converted into the right to receive a cash payment equal to the excess, if any, of the value of the Merger Consideration over the exercise price per share of such option, without any interest and subject to all applicable withholding. Each option for which, as of the Effective Time, the exercise price of such option was greater than or equal to the Merger Consideration was automatically cancelled as of the Effective Time without any consideration being paid in respect thereof.
