The RSU shall vest as follows: 25% of the shares subject to the RSU will vest on October 18, 2019 and the remaining 75% of the shares subject to the RSU shall vest in 12 substantially equal quarterly installments thereafter, subject to the Reporting Person's Continuous Service (as defined in the Issuer's 2015 Equity Incentive Plan).
(2)  The RSU shall be subject to accelerated vesting as follows: In the event of a Change in Control or a Corporate Transaction (each, as defined in the Issuer's 2015 Equity Incentive Plan), the shares subject to the Restricted Stock Unit award will fully vest as of immediately prior to the effective time of such Change in Control or Corporate Transaction, subject to the Reporting Person's Continuous Service on the effective date of such transaction.
(3)  The shares of Class A Common Stock are to be acquired upon the vesting of a Restricted Stock Unit award granted to the Reporting Person. 100% of the shares subject to the Restricted Stock Unit award will vest in full on the day prior to the Issuer's next annual stockholder meeting, anticipated to be around June 2019, subject to the Reporting Person's Continuous Service (as defined in the Issuer's 2015 Equity Incentive Plan) on the vesting date, and provided that if the Reporting Person voluntarily resigns as a Director, then the shares subject to the Restricted Stock Unit award will vest as of the effective date of the resignation as to a pro rate number of shares subject to the award based on the Reporting Person's service between the date of grant and the effective date of the resignation.
