(2) On 07/26/2011, in connection with the Issuer's initial public offering, each share of the Issuer's Class L common stock was mandatorily converted, in accordance with the terms of the Issuer's certificate of incorporation, into approximately 0.2189 of a share of common stock plus an additional number of shares of common stock determined by dividing the per share Class L preference amount of $38.8274, by $17.53, which is equal to the initial public offering price of a share of common stock net of the underwriting discount and a pro rata portion, based on the number of shares being sold in the offering, of the estimated offering expenses incurred by the Issuer. With respect to the reporting person, the conversion of the Class L common stock is exempt from Section 16(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, pursuant to Rule 16b-3 thereunder.

Lee Partners, L.P. (collectively, the "Sponsors")) criteria. As a result of the sale of shares by the Sponsors in the Issuer's initial public offering, the performance criteria was met with respect to 6,049 shares of common stock subject to this option award, which are eligible to vest in five equal annual installments beginning on 03/09/2012.
