| Explanation of Responses: |
| 1. On May 28, 2025, LN Holdings 1, LLC, an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of the Reporting Person ("Counterparty"), entered into agreements establishing the terms and conditions of variable forward transactions (the "Forward Contracts") with four unaffiliated third party buyers (the "Buyers"). On May 28, 2025, the aggregate number of shares of common stock of the Issuer subject to the Forward Contracts was set at 10,488,960 (the "Number of Shares") and the initial share price was set at $137.4500, pursuant to the terms of the Forward Contracts, as further described in the Remarks section. |
| Remarks: |
| The Forward Contracts obligate Counterparty to deliver to the Buyers, in the aggregate, up to the Number of Shares over a specified period ending in the first quarter of 2027 (the "Valuation Period"). Alternatively, Counterparty may choose to deliver an equivalent amount of cash based on a measure of the average share price over the Valuation Period. In exchange for assuming this obligation, Counterparty is entitled to elect to receive prepayment amounts of up to the present value at such time or times of approximately $1.15 billion, in the aggregate. Counterparty has agreed to pledge a number of shares of common stock of the Issuer equal to the Number of Shares (the "Pledge Shares") to secure its obligations under the Forward Contracts, and will retain voting rights in the Pledge Shares during the term of the pledge. If Counterparty elects to receive prepayment amounts and elects share settlement, Counterparty will be obligated to deliver fewer than the Number of Shares if (and to the extent that) on trading days during the Valuation Period the average per share price is above $109.9600. As noted above, alternatively Counterparty may choose to deliver a cash amount in lieu of such shares. |
