        <footnote id="F1">Pursuant to the offering reorganization completed immediately prior to completion of the initial public offering of MediaAlpha, Inc. (the &quot;Issuer&quot;) contemplated by the reorganization agreement, dated October 27, 2020, among the Issuer, QL Holdings LLC (the &quot;QLH&quot;) and other parties named therein, the limited liability company agreement of QLH was amended and restated to, among other things, convert all of the equity interests held by the members of QLH (except Guilford Holdings, Inc.) into Class B-1 units of QLH.  These members of QLH contributed a certain amount of cash to the Issuer in exchange for shares of Class B common stock, par value 0.01$ per share, of the Issuer (the &quot;Class B Stock&quot;).  Pursuant to the Issuer's Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, the shares of Class B Stock (i) confer no economic rights on the holders thereof, (ii) confer only voting rights on the holders thereof and (iii) may be issued only to holders of Class B-1 Units of QLH.</footnote>
