The Class V Common Stock (together with an equal number of corresponding RSI Units) are convertible into an equivalent number of shares of Class A Common Stock, and, prior to such exchange, the Class V Common Stock votes together with the Class A Common Stock on all matters and accordingly provides as-converted voting rights to holders of RSI Units. In accordance with the SEC’s rules for calculating “beneficial ownership,” which requires the Reporting Person to assume conversion of all of such person’s shares of Class V Common Stock and RSI Units (and disregard Class V Common Stock held by other persons, notwithstanding their current voting rights), the Reporting Person would be deemed to beneficially own approximately 37.40% of the outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock, provided that, 16.18% would nevertheless represent the Reporting Person’s actual economic and voting interest in the Issuer.

EXPLANATORY NOTE

 

The Reporting Persons are hereby filing this Amendment No. 1 (this “Amendment”) to the Schedule 13D filed by the Reporting Persons on January 8, 2021 (the “Original Schedule 13D” and, as amended and supplemented by this Amendment, the “Schedule 13D”) to report the resignation of Gregory A.

Item 5(a),(b) and (c) of the Original 13D are each hereby amended and restated in their entirety as follows:

Class A Common Stock and Class V Common Stock vote together on the election of directors to the Issuer’s board as a single class.

 

The aggregate number of shares of Class V Common Stock beneficially owned by each Reporting Person and, for each Reporting Person, the number of shares as to which there is sole power to vote or to direct the vote, shared power to vote or to direct the vote, sole power to dispose or to direct the disposition, or shared power to dispose or to direct the disposition are set forth on rows 7 through 11 and row 13 of the cover pages of this Statement and are incorporated herein by reference.
