Class A Common Stock

Stock Repurchase Program. In July 2010, the Company's Board of Directors authorized a stock repurchase program pursuant to which the Company may repurchase up to an aggregate of $150.0 million of its outstanding stock. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, the Company repurchased 3.1 million shares of its outstanding Class A Common Stock for $110.8 million. During the three months ended June 30, 2011, the Company did not repurchase any of its outstanding stock. During the six months ended June 30, 2011, the Company repurchased 0.9 million shares of its outstanding Class A Common Stock for $25.0 million. As of June 30, 2011, the Company's remaining authorization under the stock repurchase program was $125.0 million.

Class B Common Stock

In March 2010, 580,730 shares of the Company's Class B common stock were converted into an equal amount of shares of the Company's Class A common stock at the request of David Geffen, a significant stockholder, who owned such shares. Mr. Geffen, in turn, donated these shares to a charitable foundation that was established by him. These transactions had no impact on the total amount of the Company's shares outstanding.
