The aggregate percentage of Class A ordinary shares reported as beneficially owned by each Reporting Person is determined in accordance with SEC rules and is based upon a total of 235,253,658 shares, comprising 67,016,286 Class A ordinary shares and 168,237,372 Class B ordinary shares outstanding as of August 10, 2023, which is the total number of shares outstanding as reported in the Issuer’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, filed with the SEC on August 10, 2023, as adjusted for the conversion set forth in 5(c) below and the conversion of 137,000 Common Units and an equal number of Class B ordinary shares by an unaffiliated officer on August 25, 2023 as reported on his Form 4. The Reporting Persons have the right to exchange their Common Units and an equal number of Class B ordinary shares on a one-for-one basis for Class A ordinary shares.

On the Transaction Date, Tolerantia exchanged 5,289,055 of the 10,517,431 Paired Interests attributable to the interests of the Unaffiliated Investors in Tolerantia for 5,289,055 Class A ordinary shares, which it subsequently distributed in-kind pro rata for no consideration to the Unaffiliated Investors.
(d) To the best knowledge of each Reporting Person, no one other than the Reporting Persons identified herein has the right to receive or the power to direct the receipt of dividends from, or the proceeds from the sale of, the Class A ordinary shares reported herein as beneficially owned by any Reporting Person.
(e) Not applicable.
