The Partnerships collectively hold 1,335,170 shares of Class A Common Stock of the Issuer. Because of its control over, and investment management relationship with, the Partnerships, the Reporting Person may be deemed to have voting and dispositive power over the securities owned by the Partnerships; thus, the Reporting Person may also be deemed to be the beneficial owner of such securities.
(4) The Reporting Person and each Partnership disclaims any beneficial ownership of the reported securities owned by the Partnerships in excess of Reporting Person or such Partnership's pecuniary interest in such securities and this report shall not be deemed an admission that the Reporting Person is the beneficial owner of the securities for Section 16 or any other purpose.
