Subject to the terms of the Merger Agreement, (a) OpCo Merger Sub will merge with and into OpCo, with OpCo surviving the merger, collectively owned, directly or indirectly, by OpCo Parent, Manager and certain Rollover Holders (as defined below) (the "OpCo Merger"), (b) immediately following the OpCo Merger, Manager Merger Sub will merge with and into Manager, with Manager surviving the merger, wholly owned by the Company (the "Manager Merger") and (c) immediately following the Manager Merger, Company Merger Sub will merge with and into the Company, with the Company surviving the merger, collectively owned, directly or indirectly, by Holdco Parent and certain Rollover Holders (the "Company Merger" and, together with the Manager Merger and the OpCo Merger, the "Mergers" and, together with the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, collectively, the "Transactions"). In connection with the Merger Agreement, Silver Lake Partners VI, L.P. and Silver Lake Partners VII, L.P. have entered into a limited guarantee (the "Limited Guarantee") with OpCo with respect to the payment of a termination fee that may be payable by the Parent Entities to OpCo under the Merger Agreement, as well as certain reimbursement obligations that may be owed by the Parent Entities pursuant to the Merger Agreement, in each case, subject to the terms of the Merger Agreement and the Limited Guarantee.

Concurrently with the execution and delivery of the Merger Agreement on April 2, 2024, and as a condition and inducement to the Parent Entities' willingness to enter into the Merger Agreement, the following directors

1

and/or officers of the Company (and certain of their respective affiliates) - Ariel Emanuel, Patrick Whitesell and Mark Shapiro (each, a "Rollover Holder") - entered into a rollover agreement (each, a "Rollover Agreement") with the Parent Entities, in connection with the Transactions. Pursuant to the Rollover Agreements, each Rollover Holder agreed, among other things and on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Rollover Agreements, to designate as "Rollover Units" or "Rollover Shares" (as applicable) the following equity interests in OpCo and/or in the Company held by such Rollover Holder and their permitted transferees, with such Rollover Units and Rollover Shares to be treated in accordance with the terms of the Merger Agreement:

•

in the case of Mr. Emanuel, a number of equity interests in OpCo and/or in the Company held by him and his permitted transferees that are shares of Company Common Stock, OpCo Membership Interests or OpCo Profits Units (each as defined below) that collectively, using the Merger Consideration (as defined below) applicable to such interests, have a value equal to (i) the aggregate value of all such interests (calculated using the Merger Consideration applicable to such interests) minus (ii) $200,000,000, rounded to the nearest Company Common Stock, OpCo Membership Interest or OpCo Profits Unit, as applicable;

•

in the case of Mr. Whitesell, a number of equity interests in OpCo and/or in the Company held by him and his permitted transferees that are shares of Company Common Stock, OpCo Membership Interests or OpCo Profits Units that collectively, using the Merger Consideration applicable to such interests, have a value equal to (i) the aggregate value of all such interests (calculated using the Merger Consideration applicable to such interests) minus (ii) $150,000,000, rounded to the nearest Company Common Stock, OpCo Membership Interest or OpCo Profits Unit, as applicable; and

•

in the case of Mr. Shapiro, a number of equity interests in OpCo and/or in the Company held by him and his permitted transferees that are outstanding and vested shares of Company Common Stock without any restrictions on such Company Common Stock or Units of OpCo (as defined in the OpCo Operating Agreement) with a value equal to $37,187,970 (based on the applicable Merger Consideration).

In addition, pursuant to the Rollover Agreements, each Rollover Holder agreed, among other things, unless consented to in writing by the Parent Entities, not to sell, dispose of, assign, pledge, collateralize, encumber or otherwise transfer any of the Rollover Shares or Rollover Units (or, prior to the final designation of equity interests of the Company and/or OpCo held by such Rollover Holder as such, any such equity interests in the Company or OpCo, subject to certain exceptions); however, the Rollover Holders are permitted to transfer the Rollover Shares and/or Rollover Units prior to the closing of the Transactions (the "Closing") to certain permitted transferees subject to execution of a joinder to the applicable Rollover Agreement by such permitted transferee.

At the effective time of the OpCo Merger (the "OpCo Merger Effective Time"), as a result of the OpCo Merger, (a) each common unit of OpCo outstanding immediately prior to the OpCo Merger Effective Time (each, an "OpCo Membership Interest" and, collectively, the "OpCo Membership Interests") (subject to certain exceptions, including (i) each OpCo Membership Interest owned by the Company, Manager, OpCo, or any direct or indirect wholly owned subsidiary of OpCo, the Parent Entities or any direct or indirect wholly owned subsidiary of the Parent Entities or, solely to the extent designated in writing by the Parent Entities to the Company at least two business days prior to the Effective Time (as defined below), any affiliate of the Parent Entities so designated, immediately prior to the OpCo Merger Effective Time (collectively, the "Excluded OpCo Membership Interests") and (ii) the Rollover Units in OpCo held by the Rollover Holders that remain outstanding in the OpCo Merger pursuant to the respective Rollover Holders' Rollover Agreement) will automatically be cancelled and converted into the right to receive $27.50 in cash minus any amounts that are distributed in respect of an OpCo Membership Interest in respect of the distributions contemplated by the restructuring transactions to be undertaken by the Company Entities prior to Closing pursuant to the Merger Agreement and in accordance with the restructuring steps plan set forth on the Company's confidential disclosure letter delivered concurrently with the execution of the Merger Agreement (the "Restructuring Steps", and such amounts, the "OpCo

2

Membership Interest Distribution Amount"), without interest (the "OpCo Merger Consideration") and subject to applicable withholding taxes, certain deferred payments under certain terms of the existing OpCo Membership Interests and certain rights of the holders of OpCo Membership Interests to elect to cause their OpCo Membership Interests to remain outstanding through the OpCo Merger and cause the Company to acquire such OpCo Membership Interests following the OpCo Merger for an amount in cash equal to the OpCo Merger Consideration that would have otherwise been paid in respect of such OpCo Membership Interests and (b) each profits unit of OpCo outstanding immediately prior to the OpCo Merger Effective Time ("OpCo Profits Unit") (other than any Rollover Units) will automatically be cancelled and converted into the right to receive the OpCo Merger Consideration less the "strike price" of such OpCo Profits Unit in cash, without interest (the "OpCo Profits Units Merger Consideration"), and subject to applicable withholding taxes, certain deferred payments under certain terms of the existing OpCo Profits Units and certain rights of the holders of OpCo Profits Units to elect to cause their OpCo Profits Units to remain outstanding through the OpCo Merger and cause the Company to acquire such OpCo Profits Units following the OpCo Merger for an amount in cash equal to the OpCo Profits Units Merger Consideration that would have otherwise been paid in respect of such OpCo Profits Units.

At the effective time of the Manager Merger (which will occur immediately after the OpCo Merger Effective Time) (the "Manager Merger Effective Time"), as a result of the Manager Merger, each common unit of Manager outstanding immediately prior to the Manager Merger Effective Time (each, a "Manager Membership Interest") (subject to certain exceptions, including each Manager Membership Interest owned by the Company or the Manager immediately prior to the Manager Merger Effective Time) will automatically be cancelled and converted into the right to receive $27.50 in cash without interest (the "Manager Merger Consideration"), and subject to applicable withholding taxes and certain deferrals to take into account certain terms of the existing Manager Membership Interests.

At the effective time of the Company Merger (which will occur immediately after the Manager Merger Effective Time) (the "Company Merger Effective Time" or the "Effective Time"), as a result of the Company Merger, each share of Company Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Company Merger Effective Time (subject to certain exceptions, including (i) (a) shares of Company Common Stock owned by the Company, Manager or OpCo or any of OpCo's direct or indirect wholly owned subsidiaries, (b) shares of Company Common Stock owned by the Merger Subs or the Parent Entities or any of Parent Entities' direct or indirect wholly owned subsidiaries, or, any affiliate of the Parent Entities designated in writing by the Parent Entities to the Company at least two business days prior to the Company Merger Effective Time and (c) shares of Class X Common Stock and Class Y Common Stock (each as defined herein) issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Company Merger Effective Time (collectively, the "Excluded Shares"), (ii) each Rollover Share that is owned by a Rollover Holder and will remain outstanding in the Company Merger in accordance with such Rollover Holder's Rollover Agreement and (iii) shares of Company Common Stock owned by stockholders of the Company who have validly demanded and not withdrawn appraisal rights in accordance with Section 262 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the "DGCL")) will automatically be cancelled and converted into the right to receive $27.50 in cash, without interest (the "Company Merger Consideration" and, together with the OpCo Merger Consideration, the OpCo Profits Units Merger Consideration and the Manager Merger Consideration, with respect to such applicable equity securities, the "Merger Consideration"), and subject to applicable withholding taxes.

The Company is required to, in each calendar quarter prior to the Effective Time, declare and pay a dividend in respect of each issued and outstanding share of Class A Common Stock at a price equal to $0.06 per share (the "Per Share Dividend Amount" and each dividend, a "Quarterly Dividend"). If, on the date that all other conditions to Closing are satisfied, at least four Quarterly Dividends have not been paid, the Company will be required to pay, within three business days (and in any case prior to the Effective Time), a dividend in respect of each issued and outstanding share of Class A Common Stock of the Company in an amount equal to the product of (i) the Per Share Dividend Amount and (ii) four minus the number of quarters in which a Quarterly Dividend has been declared and paid (or will be paid prior to the Effective Time).

3

Following completion of the Mergers, the shares of Company Common Stock will cease to be listed on the New York Stock Exchange and registration of the Company Common Stock under the Exchange Act will be terminated.

The Merger Agreement and the Transactions were unanimously approved by the Executive Committee of the Company (the "Executive Committee") upon the unanimous recommendation of a special committee of the board of directors of the Company (the "Special Committee" and, such recommendation, the "Special Committee Recommendation")-a committee comprised solely of independent and disinterested directors that was established by the Executive Committee to review, evaluate and negotiate the Merger Agreement, make a determination as to whether the Transactions are fair to, and in the best interests of, the Company, its stockholders, and the equityholders of Manager and OpCo and make a recommendation to the Executive Committee with respect to the Transactions.
