Explanation of Responses:
1. As a result of the distribution of shares, which were previously reported as indirectly beneficially owned by the reporting person, as the proceeds of an in-kind annuity payment from Hilrod Holdings XXV, L.P. to the reporting person, the total amount of shares directly owned has increased.
2. On December 1, 2022, the reporting person's voting and dispositive power terminated and was transferred to Sterling Trustees LLC. Such shares are not deemed beneficially owned by the reporting person.
3. Reporting person (i) is one of the general partners of each of Brandon Limited Partnership No. 1, Brandon Limited Partnership No. 2, Hilrod Holdings IV, L.P., Hilrod Holdings V, L.P., Hilrod Holdings VI, L.P., Hilrod Holdings VII, L.P., Hilrod Holdings VIII, L.P., Hilrod Holdings IX, L.P., Hilrod Holdings X, L.P., Hilrod Holdings XI, L.P., Hilrod Holdings XII, L.P., Hilrod Holdings XIII, L.P., Hilrod Holdings XIV, L.P., Hilrod Holdings XV, L.P., Hilrod Holdings XVI, L.P., Hilrod Holdings XVIII, L.P., Hilrod Holdings XIX, L.P., Hilrod Holdings XX, L.P., Hilrod Holdings XXI, L.P., Hilrod Holdings XXII, L.P., Hilrod Holdings XXIII, L.P., Hilrod Holdings XXIV, L.P., Hilrod Holdings XXV, L.P. and Hilrod Holdings XXVI, L.P. and (ii) disclaims beneficial ownership of these securities except to the extent of his pecuniary interest therein.
4.

5. On December 1, 2022, the reporting person resigned as a trustee of RCS Direct 2010 GRAT, RCS Direct 2010 GRAT #2, RCS 2010 GRAT #3, and RCS Direct 2011 GRAT and Sterling Trustees LLC was appointed as his successor. Accordingly, the reporting person no longer has voting or dispositive power over, and therefore is not deemed to beneficially own, any of the shares held by RCS Direct 2010 GRAT, RCS Direct 2010 GRAT #2, RCS 2010 GRAT #3, and RCS Direct 2011 GRAT. The shares held by RCS Direct 2010 GRAT, RCS Direct 2010 GRAT #2, RCS 2010 GRAT #3, and RCS Direct 2011 GRAT are held for the benefit of certain family members of Mr. Sacks.
