(1) On June 17, 2024, the Issuer appointed a new third-party administrator for its Employee Stock Purchase Plan. In connection with this appointment, the holding of Reporting Person's shares of Class A Common stock was changed from indirect to direct ownership. This transaction is exempt from Section 16 concurrent reporting requirements pursuant to Rule 16a-13.
(2) Includes 1,605.166 shares of the Issuer's Class A Common Stock purchased for the Reporting Person's account under the Issuer's Employee Stock Purchase Plan since the last Statement of Changes in Beneficial Ownership was filed by the Reporting Person. Such acquisitions are exempt from Section 16 concurrent reporting requirements pursuant to Rule 16b-3.
(3) Includes 872.513 shares of the Issuer's Class A Common Stock received by the Reporting Person pursuant to the Issuer's dividend reinvestment plan since the last Statement of Changes in Beneficial Ownership was filed by the Reporting Person. Such acquisitions are exempt from Section 16 concurrent reporting requirements pursuant to Rule 16a-11.
(4) On November 17, 2024, 3,846.942 shares vested and are reported herein as acquired non-derivative securities.

The performance metric was a cumulative operating income target of $1.161 billion for the 2024 fiscal year. The performance shares could vest at a level of 25 percent - 100 percent per performance criteria and were previously reported in the aggregate as derivative securities at the 100 percent level. The remainder of the award will continue to be held until the final vesting date of November 17, 2025.
(5) Pursuant to the terms of the award agreement, these shares were withheld by the Issuer to satisfy tax withholding obligations related to the vesting described in footnote 4.
(6) On November 17, 2024, 4,869.701 shares of restricted Class A Common Stock vested. The restricted shares were previously reported as beneficially owned by the Reporting Person.
