(iii) The Investor, acting through its Manager, BDTCP GP, has the sole power to vote or to direct the vote, and to dispose or to direct the disposition of, the shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by it. Each of the BDT Investment Funds has the sole power to vote or to direct the vote, and to dispose or to direct the disposition of, the shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by it. The BDT Investment Vehicle has the sole power to vote or to direct the vote, and to dispose or to direct the disposition of, the shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by it.
