As of December 31, 2021, each of the Reporting Persons may be deemed to be the beneficial owner of the shares of Class A Common Stock listed on such Reporting Person’s cover page. The shares consist of 3,525,731 shares of the Class B common shares, par value $0.000 per share (the “Class B Common Stock” and together with the Class A Common Stock, the “common stock”), of the Issuer held by Data Center Holdings II LLC; 3,529,933 shares of Class B Common Stock held by IT Brazil Group II LLC; 3,529,557 Class B Common Stock held by RCP II Brazil Holdings LLC and 2,769,825 shares of Class B Common Stock held by RCP II (Parallel B) Brazil Holdings LLC (together the “Riverwood-Managed Entities”), which are wholly owned by Data Center Holdings II AIV L.P., IT Brazil Group II AIV L.P., RCP II Brazil Holdings AIV L.P., and Riverwood Capital Partners II (Parallel-B) L.P., respectively (together, the “Riverwood-Managed Funds”), which management is controlled by Riverwood Capital II L.P., the general partner of each of the Riverwood-Managed Funds. Riverwood Capital GP II Ltd. is the general partner of Riverwood Capital II L.P. The Riverwood-Managed Funds, Riverwood Capital II L.P. and Riverwood Capital GP II Ltd. may be deemed to have voting and dispositive power over shares directly held by the Riverwood-Managed Entities (provided that the powers attributed to Riverwood Capital II L.P. and Riverwood Capital GP II Ltd. are vested to them in their fiduciary capacity). All investment decisions over the shares held by the Riverwood-Managed Entities are made by a majority vote of an investment committee comprised of several members. All voting decisions over the shares held by the Riverwood-Managed Entities are made by a majority vote of Riverwood Capital GP II Ltd.’s multiple shareholders. No natural person controls investment or voting decisions with respect to the common stock beneficially owned by the Reporting Persons. The shareholders and investment committee members of Riverwood Capital GP II Ltd. disclaim beneficial ownership of all shares beneficially owned by the Reporting Persons for the purposes of Sections 13(d) and 13(g) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Act”).

Each share of Class A Common Stock is entitled to one (1) vote. Each Class B common share is entitled to ten (10) votes and is convertible into one share of Class A Common Stock, at the option of the holder and automatically upon transfer, subject to certain exceptions. The common stock held by the Reporting Persons represents approximately 7.0% of the total common stock of the Issuer outstanding, assuming 74,239,544 shares of Class A Common Stock and 115,869,036 shares of Class B Common Stock outstanding immediately after the IPO dated July 22, 2021, as reflected in the Issuer’s Prospectus filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on July 22, 2021.
