Information with respect to each of the Warburg Pincus Reporting Persons is given solely by such Warburg Pincus Reporting Person, and no Warburg Pincus Reporting Person has responsibility for the accuracy or completeness of information supplied by another Warburg Pincus Reporting Person. |
| 6. By reason of the provisions of Rule 16a-1 of the Exchange Act, the Warburg Pincus Reporting Persons may be deemed to be beneficial owners of the 2,567,207 shares of Common Stock of the Issuer held by Mustang Holdco II. The Warburg Pincus Reporting Persons disclaim beneficial ownership of such shares of Common Stock of the Issuer except to the extent of their direct pecuniary interest therein. As of the date of this filing, this Form 4 shall not be deemed an admission that any reporting person or any other person referred to herein is a beneficial owner of any securities of the Issuer for purposes of Section 16 of the Exchange Act, or for any other purpose, or that any reporting person or other person has an obligation to file this Form 4. |

The Form 3 Filing Persons had no pecuniary interest in such shares beneficially owned by the Other Holders and disclaimed beneficial ownership of such shares on the Form 3. Such shares are now directly held by the Other Holders, and neither the Form 3 Filing Persons nor Mustang Holdco II, either directly or indirectly, holds such shares as of the transaction referenced in note (1) above. |
