Explanation of Responses:

1. Represents shares of Class A Common Stock acquired by the reporting person upon the vesting of performance-based stock units (PSUs) granted to the reporting person on March 12, 2021, as a result of the level of achievement by the issuer of certain performance objectives during the period running from January 1, 2023 through December 31, 2023, and a multiplier based on relative total shareholder return for the period running from January 1, 2021 to December 31, 2023, as certified by the issuer's compensation and human capital committee on February 27, 2024.

2. Represents the sale of shares of Class A Common Stock pursuant to a "sell-to-cover" transaction in order to satisfy tax withholding obligations in connection with the vesting of PSUs previously granted to the reporting person on March 12, 2021. This sale was effected pursuant to an automatic sell-to-cover instruction adopted by the reporting person on August 5, 2021 and does not represent a discretionary sale by the reporting person.

3. Represents the weighted average sales price for shares sold in multiple transactions, ranging from $90.18 to $90.37. Upon request of the staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission, the issuer or a security holder of the issuer, the reporting person will provide full information regarding the number of shares sold at each separate price.
