On or about March 18, 2020, the Dowling Junior Entities decided to explore the possibility of independently acquiring additional shares of Class A Common Stock through private purchases or on open market transaction (“Share Acquisition”), including the potential purchase from certain individuals holding a significant percentage of the outstanding Class A Common Stock.

In this respect, on March 26, 2020, the Reporting Persons acquired an aggregate of 20,000 shares of Class B Common Stock. However, depending on market conditions and other factors that each of the Reporting Persons may deem material to their decision, there can be no assurance that any of the Reporting Persons will engage in such acquisitions.
