(a) and (b) Calculations of the percentage of the shares of Class A Common Stock beneficially owned assumes that there were 119,799,036 shares of Class A Common Stock outstanding as of April 30, 2021, based on information set forth in the Issuer’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed by the Issuer on May 17, 2021, and takes into account any shares of Class A Common Stock underlying Common Units held by the Reporting Persons, as applicable.

The aggregate number and percentage of the Class A Common Stock beneficially owned by each Reporting Person and, for each Reporting Person, the number of shares as to which there is sole power to vote or to direct the vote, shared power to vote or to direct the vote, sole power to dispose or to direct the disposition, or shared power to dispose or to direct the disposition are set forth on rows 7 through 11 and row 13 of the cover pages of this Schedule 13D and are incorporated herein by reference.

As of the date hereof, (i) BX Buzz ML-1 Holdco L.P. directly holds 2,382,443 shares of Class A Common Stock, (ii) BX Buzz ML-2 Holdco L.P. directly holds 32,781,134 shares of Class A Common Stock, (iii) BX Buzz ML-3 Holdco L.P. directly holds 5,321,739 shares of Class A Common Stock, (iv) BX Buzz ML- 4 Holdco L.P. directly holds 14,200,609 shares of Class A Common Stock, (v) BX Buzz ML-5 Holdco L.P. directly holds 23,258 shares of Class A Common Stock, one share of Class B common stock of the Issuer (“Class B Common Stock”), and 43,054,866 Common Units, which are exchangeable for shares of Class A Common Stock on a one-for-one basis, (vi) BX Buzz ML-6 Holdco L.P. directly holds one share of Class B Common Stock and 388,538 Common Units, which are exchangeable for shares of Class A Common Stock on a one-for-one basis, and (vii) BX Buzz ML-7 Holdco L.P. directly holds one share of Class B Common Stock and 84,848 Common Units, which are exchangeable for shares of Class A Common Stock on a one-for-one basis.

In general, each share of Class A Common Stock entitles its holder to one vote on all matters on which Issuer stockholders are entitled to vote generally. Shares of Class B Common Stock have no economic rights but each share generally entitles each holder, without regard to the number of shares of Class B Common Stock held by such holder, to a number of votes that is equal to the aggregate number of Common Units held by such holder on all matters on which Issuer stockholders are entitled to vote generally. Holders of shares of Class B Common Stock vote together with holders of Class A Common Stock as a single class on all matters on which stockholders are entitled to vote generally, except as otherwise required by law. Notwithstanding the foregoing, unless they elect otherwise, each of the Blackstone Funds is entitled to outsized voting rights as follows. Until the High Vote Termination Date (as defined below), each share of Class A Common Stock held by them entitles such person to ten votes and each such Blackstone Fund that holds Class B Common Stock is entitled, without regard to the number of shares of Class B Common Stock held by such Blackstone Fund, to a number of votes equal to 10 times the aggregate number of Common Units held by such Blackstone Fund. “High Vote Termination Date” means the earlier to occur of (i) seven years from the closing of the Issuer’s initial public offering and (ii) the date the parties to the Stockholders Agreement (as defined below) cease to own in the aggregate 7.5% of the outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock, assuming exchange of all Common Units.
