The parties to the Stockholders Agreement may therefore be deemed as a group to share beneficial ownership over all of the shares subject to the agreement.

 

(2) Includes 3,097,402 shares of Common Stock beneficially owned directly by Mr. Isely, 91,938 shares owned directly by the LaRock and Luke Isely Trust, with respect to which Mr. Isely shares voting and investment power with Zephyr Isely as co-trustee of the trust, and 207,490 shares held by Mr. Andueza as custodian under the Colorado Uniform Transfer to Minors Act, or UTMA, for Mr. Isely’s children Ritchie K. Isely and Raquel M. Isely, each of whom shares Mr. Isely’s permanent residence.  The balance of the shares of Common Stock reported as beneficially owned are reported as such solely because the reporting person is a party to the Stockholders Agreement.

 

(3) The percentage of Common Stock is calculated based on an aggregate of 22,401,924 shares of Common Stock outstanding following the consummation of the issuer’s initial public offering, including the underwriters’ exercise of their overallotment option, and issuances of Common Stock upon vesting of restricted stock units granted to the issuer’s Chief Financial Officer.
