    <ffd:OfferingNote contextRef="offrl_1" id="ixv-420">(a) In accordance with Rules 456(b) and 457(r) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), the registrant initially deferred payment of all of the registration fees for Registration Statement No. 333-297986 filed on August 5, 2026 (the "Registration Statement"). This "Calculation of Filing Fee" table shall be deemed to update the table filed as Exhibit 107 in accordance with Rules 456(b) and 457(r) under the Securities Act. The maximum aggregate offering price of the securities to which the prospectus relates is $400,000,000. The prospectus is a final prospectus for the related offering.
(b) Calculated pursuant to Rule 457(g) under the Securities Act, based on the $2.00 minimum subscription price per subscription right to purchase one share of Class A Common Stock, which exceeds the average of the high and low prices of the Class A Common Stock on September 23, 2026 as reported on the NYSE.</ffd:OfferingNote>
    <ffd:OfferingNote contextRef="offrl_2" id="ixv-421">See Note 1(a). The subscription rights are being issued without consideration. Pursuant to Rule 457(g) under the Securities Act, no separate registration fee is required because the subscription rights are being registered in the same registration statement as the shares of Class A Common Stock underlying the subscription rights.</ffd:OfferingNote>
