Explanation of Responses:
1. Each share of Series B Preferred Stock and Series C Preferred Stock will automatically convert into one share of the Issuer's Class B common stock (the "Class B Stock") immediately prior to the closing of the Issuer's initial public offering ("IPO"). The Series B Preferred Stock and Series C Preferred Stock have no expiration date.
2. Each share of Class B Stock is convertible into one share of the Issuer's Class A common stock at any time and will convert automatically upon certain transfers and upon the earlier of (i) ten years from the date of the IPO, (ii) the death or disability of Sytse Sijbrandij, (iii) the first date following the completion of the IPO on which the number of shares of outstanding Class B Stock (including shares of Class B Stock subject to outstanding stock options) is less than 5% of the aggregate number of shares of the Issuer's common stock then outstanding and (iv) the date specified by a vote of the holders of two-thirds of the then outstanding shares of Class B Stock.
3. These securities are held directly by August Capital VII, L.P. as nominee for itself and August Capital Strategic Partners VII, L.P. (the "August Capital Funds"). August Capital Management VII, L.L.C. is the general partner of the August Capital Funds and may be deemed to have sole voting power and sole investment power over the shares held by the August Capital Funds.
