Explanation of Responses:
1. Award of performance Class A Common Stock which vests on November 18, 2019 if the performance metrics described in the applicable Stock Incentive Agreement are achieved. The performance metrics set forth in the Stock Incentive Agreement are (1) achievement of a three year (fiscal 2017-2019) cumulative EBIT target and (2) a favorable comparison of the relative total shareholder return of the Issuer's Class A Common Stock compared to a predetermined peer group of publicly traded companies over a three year (fiscal 2017-2019) period. Subject to the achievement of the performance metrics, the performance shares could vest at a level of 50%-200% and are reported as derivative securities at the 200% level. If neither of the performance metrics are achieved, the award expires.
2. The number of shares was mistakenly reported at the 100% level, but the footnote indicated it was being reported at the 200% level. It is reported here at the 200% level.
