Explanation of Responses:

( 1 )The shares of Class B Common Stock of the Issuer ("Class B Common Stock") are convertible into Class A Common Stock of the Issuer ("Class A Common Stock") on a one-to-one basis at the option of the holder and have no expiration date. Class B Common Stock will convert automatically into Class A Common Stock on the date on which the number of outstanding shares of Class B Common Stock represents less than 10% of the aggregate combined number of outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock. In addition, (i) each share of Class B Common Stock will convert automatically into one share of Class A Common Stock upon any transfer, whether or not for value, except for certain "Permitted Transfers" as defined in the Issuer's amended and restated certificate of incorporation, or (ii) in the event of the death of Mr. Hawkes, shares of Class B Common Stock held by Mr. Hawkes or Mr. Hawkes' permitted estate planning entities will convert into Class A Common Stock. ( 2 )These shares of Class B Common Stock were issued to Mr. Hawkes at his election in lieu of director fees payable in cash in the amount of $31,250. The price of the derivative security is based on the closing price of the Company's shares on July 10, 2019. ( 3 )These securities are held directly by Hawkes Family LLC, which is controlled by Mr. Hawkes. Mr. Hawkes disclaims beneficial ownership of the shares held by Hawkes Family LLC except to the extent of his pecuniary interest therein and this report shall not be deemed an admission that Mr. Hawkes is the beneficial owner of the shares held by Hawkes Family LLC

Reminder: Report on a separate line for each class of securities beneficially owned directly or indirectly.
