FORM OF EMAIL REGARDING UPDATED HYPOTHETICAL EXCHANGE RATIOS

FROM:
Chris Kitchen, Executive Vice President and General Counsel
SUBJECT:
Option Exchange Offer Program Deadline Approaching
DATE:
August [13], 2018

This email is to remind you that August [16], 2018 at 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time is the final deadline to elect to participate in the option exchange offer program. If you wish to exchange your eligible options for replacement options, as described in the offering materials, you must complete and deliver your Election Form prior to that deadline if you have not done so already. No later than 5:00 p.m., Eastern Time, on August [16], 2018 we will distribute by email to all eligible participants the exact exchange ratios to be used in the exchange offer and the exchange offer will expire at 11:59 p.m., Eastern Time on August [16], 2018. This means that after you receive notification of the final exchange ratios, you will have approximately seven (7) hours before the expiration deadline to make a final decision as to whether to tender or withdraw your eligible options.

We are sending this email to you to provide in the table below updated hypothetical exchange ratios that would be used in the exchange offer assuming various closing prices of our Class A common stock on the expiration date of the exchange offer and provide you with the link to https://tsminsider.com/optionexchange/, our Intranet site, where you will find the updated hypothetical exchange ratios.

Hypothetical Exchange Ratios for Eligible Options

In the following table, we have assumed that the closing price of our Class A common stock on the expiration date will be $[•] (which is equal to the closing price of our Class A common stock today, August [13], 2018). We have also included additional closing prices that represent both 7.5% ($[•]) and 15% ($[•]) upward and 7.5% ($[•]) and 15% ($[•]) downward declines in the assumed closing price. These price ranges are based on the range of recent trading prices of our Class A common stock.

The number of shares subject to each new replacement option will be determined by dividing the number of shares subject to the eligible option by the applicable exchange ratio, adjusted, if necessary, to eliminate any fractional shares. For purposes of applying the exchange ratios, fractional shares underlying new stock options will be rounded down to the nearest whole share underlying such new stock option on a grant-by-grant basis.

For example: Assuming that the closing price of our Class A common stock on the expiration date is $[•], which is equal to the closing price of our Class A common stock on August [•], 2018, an eligible option to purchase 1,000 shares with a per share exercise price of $8.96 granted on January 26, 2016 will have an exchange ratio of [•]:1.

Exhibit (a)(1)(R)


Therefore, this eligible option will be exchangeable for a replacement option to purchase [•] shares, which is equal to the number of shares underlying the eligible option, or 1,000, divided by [•].
