An account managed by HFA has entered into notional principal amount derivative agreements (the "Derivative Agreements") in the form of cash settled swaps with respect to 68,052 Class A Shares. The Derivative Agreements provide such holder with economic results that are comparable to the economic results of ownership but do not provide it with the power to vote or direct the voting or dispose of or direct the disposition of the Class A Shares that are the subject of the Derivative Agreements (such shares, the "Subject Shares"). The Reporting Persons disclaim beneficial ownership in the Subject Shares. The counterparties to the Derivative Agreements are unaffiliated third party financial institutions. | ||
