By their respective signatures on this Schedule, each of the Reporting Persons agrees that this Schedule is filed on behalf of such Reporting Person.

The Reporting Persons may be deemed to constitute a “group” for purposes of Section 13(d)(3) of the Act. The Reporting Persons expressly disclaim that they have agreed to act as a group other than as described in this Schedule.

The Reporting Persons beneficially own Class A Common Stock as well as LP Units of LCFH (the “LP Units”) and Class B Common Stock of the Issuer (the “Class B Common Stock”) that together are exchangeable into Class A Common Stock of the Issuer.  Prior to the initial public offering of the Issuer’s shares of Class A Common Stock (the “IPO”), which occurred on February 11, 2014, the Reporting Persons held interests in LCFH.  In connection with the reorganization that occurred immediately prior to the IPO (the “Reorganization”), (i) AIV II received 6,027,333 shares of Class A Common Stock of the Issuer and (ii) TI Holdings received 9,944,612 LP Units and 9,944,612 shares of Class B Common Stock of the Issuer.  Pursuant to the Amended and Restated Limited Liability Limited Partnership Agreement of LCFH (the “LLLP Agreement”), entered into in connection with the closing of the IPO, from and after the date 180 days after the date of the closing of the IPO, holders of the LP Units and Class B Common Stock (which includes TI Holdings), may, from time to time, exchange LP Units paired with an equal number of shares of Class B Common Stock for shares of Class A Common Stock on a one-for-one basis, subject to customary conversion rate adjustments for stock splits, stock dividends, and reclassifications. This exchange right has no expiration date.

11

The information set forth under Items 3 and 6 is hereby incorporated by reference.

All of the Class A Common Stock and securities convertible into Class A Common Stock were acquired for investment purposes.  TI Holdings acquired the LP Units and Class B Common Stock as part of the Reorganization and AIV II acquired the shares of Class A Common Stock as part of the Reorganization. The Reporting Persons review on a continuing basis the investment in the Issuer. Based on such review, the Reporting Persons may acquire, or cause to be disposed, such securities at any time or formulate other purposes, plans or proposals regarding the Issuer or any of its securities, to the extent deemed advisable in light of general investment and trading policies of the Reporting Persons, the Issuer’s business, financial condition and operating results, general market and industry conditions or other factors.

Except as otherwise described in this Schedule, none of the Reporting Persons nor, to the best knowledge of the Reporting Persons, currently has any plans or proposals that relate to or would result in: (a) the acquisition by any person of additional securities of the Issuer, or the disposition of securities of the Issuer; (b) an extraordinary corporate transaction, such as a merger, reorganization or liquidation, involving the Issuer or any of its subsidiaries; (c) a sale or transfer of a material amount of assets of the Issuer or any of its subsidiaries; (d) any change in the present Board of Directors or management of the Issuer, including any plans or proposals to change the number or term of directors or to fill any existing vacancies on the Board; (e) any material change in the present capitalization or dividend policy of the Issuer; (f) any other material change in the Issuer’s business or corporate structure; (g) any changes in the Issuer’s charter or by-laws or other actions which may impede the acquisition or control of the Issuer by any person; (h) causing a class of securities of the Issuer to be delisted from a national securities exchange or cease to be authorized to be quoted in an interdealer quotation system of a registered national securities association; (i) causing a class of equity securities of the Issuer to become eligible for termination of registration pursuant to Section 12(g)(4) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934; or (j) any action similar to those enumerated above.

However, as part of the ongoing evaluation of this investment and investment alternatives, the Reporting Persons may consider such matters and, subject to applicable law, may formulate a plan with respect to such matters, and, from time to time, may hold discussions with or make formal proposals to management or the board of directors of the Issuer, other stockholders of the Issuer or other third parties regarding such matters.

AIV is controlled by its general partner, Fund II GP, and Fund II GP is controlled by its general partner, TowerBrook. As a result, AIV II, Fund II GP and TowerBrook may be deemed to beneficially own the 6,027,333 shares of Class A Common Stock owned by AIV II.  As directors and joint controlling shareholders of TowerBrook, Neal Moszkowski and Ramez Sousou may be deemed to beneficially own the 6,027,333 shares of Class A Common Stock owned by AIV II.
