Remarks: In connection with the Master Reorganization Agreement, the Reporting Persons entered into a Stockholders Agreement with certain other stockholders of the Issuer, pursuant to which, among other matters, they agreed to vote in favor of each others' director nominees. As a result, certain Reporting Persons may be deemed to be members of a "group," as such term is defined in Section 13(d)(3) of the Act and Rule 13d-5 thereunder, with such other stockholders of the Issuer. Collectively, such "group" may be deemed to beneficially own in the aggregate more than 50% of the shares of the Issuer's Class A Common Stock. Accordingly, the Reporting Persons are filing this Form 4 in part by virtue of their deemed membership in such "group." Each of GEC Advisors LLC, GEC Group B Ltd., GEC Capital Group III-B LP, GEC Group Ltd., GEC Capital Group III LP, GEC Partners III-B LP, GEC Partners III LP and GEC Estis Co-Invest II LLC may be deemed to be a director by deputization by virtue of the right the GEC parties to the Stockholders Agreement and their affiliates to designate two members of the Issuer's board of directors pursuant to the Stockholders Agreement. However, each of the Reporting Persons disclaims any pecuniary interest in the shares of Class A Common Stock owned directly by such other stockholders, and such shares are not reflected in the tables herein. |
