Item 3.
Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration

On July 12, 2002, the issuer granted to Richard Horowitz incentive stock options to purchase 66,664 shares of Class A Common Stock under the issuer’s 2002 Stock Incentive Plan. 16,666 of such options were to become exercisable on January 1, 2004 (the “Initial Exercise Date”), and an additional 16,666 of such options were to become exercisable on each of the next three anniversaries of the Initial Exercise Date. All of such options terminate on the fifth anniversary of the grant. The exercise price for each of such options is $6.60 per share. No consideration was paid for such options.

On July 12, 2002, the issuer granted to Richard Horowitz non-qualified stock options to purchase 83,336 shares of Class A Common Stock under the issuer’s 2002 Stock Incentive Plan.
