Calculations of the percentage of subordinate voting shares of the Issuer beneficially owned assume 331,591,109 subordinate voting shares outstanding as of September 30, 2022, as reported in the Form 6-K filed by the Issuer with the Securities and Exchange Commission on November 3, 2022, and take into account any options held directly or indirectly by the Reporting Person and the conversion of any multiple voting shares held directly or indirectly by the Reporting Person as converted on a one-for-one basis, as applicable. The Reporting Person may be deemed to be the beneficial owner of the subordinated voting shares listed on his cover page.

The Reporting Person directly holds options currently exercisable within 60 days into 3,613,148 subordinate voting shares, Sejosa Holdings Inc., an entity controlled by the Reporting Person, directly holds 2 subordinate voting shares and 11,785,722 multiple voting shares, which are convertible into subordinate voting shares on a one-for-one basis, and Sejosa II Holdings Inc., an entity controlled by the Reporting Person, directly holds 27,242 multiple voting shares, which are convertible into subordinate voting shares on a one-for-one basis.

For U.S. securities law purposes, by virtue of a certain Investor Rights Agreement, dated as of March 5, 2020 (the "Investor Rights Agreement"), entered into by and among the Reporting Person and certain of his affiliates (the "Dovigi Group"), the Issuer and solely for certain limited purposes, BC Partners Advisors, L.P. ("BC Partners"), the Dovigi Group and BC Partners and certain of its affiliates may be deemed to be part of a "group" for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act. However, neither the filing of this Schedule 13G nor any of its contents shall be deemed to constitute an admission that such persons are members of any such group. Each of the Reporting Person and BC Partners and its respective affiliates are separately making a Schedule 13G filing reporting the subordinate voting shares they may be deemed to beneficially own. The Reporting Person disclaims beneficial ownership of any subordinate voting shares that may be deemed to be beneficially owned by BC Partners and its affiliates.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**(c) Number of Shares as to which the Reporting Person has:**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) Sole power to vote or to direct the vote:

 of:

See each cover page hereof.
