Represents shares of the Issuer's Class A Common Stock purchased for the Reporting Person's account under the Issuer's Employee Stock Purchase Plan since the last Statement of Changes in Beneficial Ownership was filed by the Reporting Person. Such acquisitions are exempt from Section 16 reporting requirements pursuant to Rule 16b-3.
On October 4, 2010, the Reporting Person received a grant of performance shares which vested or expired on October 1, 2013. The performance shares could vest at a level of 50%-150% and were previously reported as derivative securities at the 150% level. On October 1, 2013, 11,531 shares vested and are reported herein as acquired non-derivitives securities. The remaining 2,306 shares granted October 4, 2010 have expired.
The total reported reflects the correction of a clerical error originally reported when a charitable donation was made on November 8, 2011. An increase of 11,799 shares from previous reports reflects the correction of that clerical error.
Pursuant to an election made by the Reporting Person, 3,961 shares were sold by the Reporting Person to the Issuer on October 1, 2013, to satisfy tax withholding obligations related to the vesting described in footnote 2.
