Explanation of Responses: |
1. On February 5, 2015, The Lion Fund II, L.P. ("TLF II") entered into a prepaid forward variable agreement with an unaffiliated counterparty, pursuant to which TLF II received a cash payment of $135,095,500 in exchange for agreeing to pay the value of up to 1,250,000 shares of the issuer's common stock on future dates. A preliminary payment from TLF II to the counterparty will be due on June 9, 2017 based on the volume-weighted average share price ("VWAP") on June 6, 2017 ("Initial Payment"). If the VWAP on June 6, 2017 is less than or equal to $131.32 (the "Floor Price"), then the Initial Payment will be equal to the June 6, 2017 VWAP times 1,250,000 shares; if the June 6, 2017 VWAP is more than the Floor Price but less than or equal to $157.58 (the "Cap Price"), then the Initial Payment will be equal to the Floor Price times 1,250,000 shares; (Continued in Footnote 2) |
2. and if the June 6, 2017 VWAP is greater than the Cap Price, then the Initial Payment will be equal to (1) 1,250,000 times (2) an amount equal to the Floor Price plus the amount by which the June 6, 2017 VWAP exceeds the Cap Price. A true-up payment based on the VWAP for the valuation dates for the transaction (the "Valuation Dates"), occurring during the period beginning on June 14, 2017 and ending on September 19, 2017 ("Settlement Price") will be computed. TLF II may elect to make delivery of shares three business days after each Valuation Date in lieu of a cash payment. |
3. Biglari Capital Corp. ("BCC") is the general partner of TLF II. Mr. Biglari is the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of BCC and has investment discretion over the securities owned by TLF II. By virtue of these relationships, BCC and Mr. Biglari may be deemed to beneficially own the forward sale agreement entered into by TLF II as described in footnotes 1,2 and 3. Each of BCC and Mr. Biglari disclaims beneficial ownership of such forward sale agreement except to the extent of his or its pecuniary interest therein. |
