Each Restricted Stock Unit ("RSU") represents a contingent right to receive one share of Issuer Class A Common Stock, which will be issued to the reporting person immediately upon vesting. The RSUs vest in three equal annual installments, commencing January 1, 2022. Received in exchange for restricted stock units representing a contingent right to receive DISH Class A Common Stock in connection with the Merger.
