, and Class C common stock vote together as a single class. Except as
otherwise expressly provided by our certificate of incorporation or required by applicable law, (i) each holder of Class A common stock, as such, is entitled to one vote for each share of Class A common stock held of record by such holder on all
matters on which stockholders generally are entitled to vote, (ii) each holder of Class B common stock, as such, is entitled to 5 votes for each share of Class B common stock held of record by such holder on all matters on which stockholders
generally are entitled to vote; provided, however, that if the aggregate voting power of all outstanding shares of Class B common stock entitled to vote on a matter on which stockholders are generally entitled to vote exceeds 30% of
the aggregate voting power of our capital stock outstanding and entitled to vote on such matter, then the number of votes on such matter to which each outstanding share of Class B common stock is entitled will be automatically and proportionally
reduced so that the aggregate voting power of all outstanding shares of Class B common stock entitled to vote on such matter equals 30% of the aggregate voting power of the capital stock outstanding and entitled to vote on such matter; and (iii)
each holder of Class C common stock, as such, is not entitled to vote on and does not have any voting power with respect to shares of Class C common stock held of record by such holder on any matter on which stockholders generally are entitled to
vote (including, for the avoidance of doubt, the election and removal of directors) other than to the extent set forth in our certificate of incorporation or otherwise required by applicable law.

Dividend rights.Whenever a dividend is paid to the holders of Class A common stock, Class B common stock, or Class C common stock then outstanding, we will
also pay to the holders of each other series of common stock then outstanding an equal dividend per share on an equal priority, pari passu basis, unless different treatment of the shares of each such series is or has been approved by the
affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the voting power of the then-outstanding shares of Class A common stock entitled to vote thereon, by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the voting power of the then-outstanding
shares of Class B common stock entitled to vote thereon and, if and only if such different treatment would significantly and adversely affect the rights or preferences of the holders of
