(2) On November 18, 2019 the Reporting Person received a grant of performance shares which vested or expired on November 18, 2022 subject to the achievement of performance criteria in the applicable Stock Incentive Agreement.

The performance shares could vest at a level of 50%-200% per performance criteria and were previously reported in the aggregate as derivative securities at the 200% level. On November 18, 2022, 478.657 shares vested and are reported herein as acquired non-derivative securities and the remainder of the award expired.
(3) 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 2.

(7) A portion of these performance shares vested as described in footnote 2. The remainder of the award expired.
(8) Award of performance Class A Common Stock which vests on November 18, 2025 if the performance metrics described in the applicable Stock Incentive Agreement (the "SIA") are achieved. The performance metrics set forth in the SIAs are: (1) achievement of a three year (fiscal 2023-2025) cumulative operating income 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 2023-2025) period; and (3) achievement of a three year (fiscal 2023-2025) average return on invested capital target. Subject to the achievement of the performance metrics, the performance shares could vest at a level of 50 to 200 percent and are reported as derivative securities at the 200 percent level. If none of the performance metrics are achieved, the award expires.
(9) These options vest in equal annual increments on each of the first, second and third anniversary dates of the grant and become fully vested after three years.
