(U.S.A.), Inc. (“Mitsui”), the other stockholder party to the Stockholders Agreement. Mr. Penske expressly disclaims beneficial ownership of any shares of Voting Common Stock held by Mitsui. In Amendment 6 to Schedule 13D filed on February 5, 2010 by Mitsui, Mitsui reported beneficial ownership of 15,559,217 shares. Including the shares reported by Mitsui, Mr. Penske would beneficially own 47,281,655 shares, representing 51.6% of the Voting Common Stock outstanding.
