NOTE 3 — EARNINGS (LOSS) PER SHARE

Basic earnings (loss) per common share is based only on the average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the periods. Diluted earnings (loss) per common share reflect the effect of shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise of options, unless the effect on earnings is antidilutive.

Diluted earnings (loss) per common share is computed using the treasury stock method. Under this method, the aggregate number of shares of common stock outstanding reflects the assumed use of proceeds from the hypothetical exercise of any outstanding options to purchase shares of the Company’s Class A Common Stock. The average market value for the period is used as the assumed purchase price.

The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted earnings (loss) per common share:

At June 30, 2011 and 2010 and during the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, there were outstanding stock options whose exercise prices were higher than the average market values of the underlying Class A Common Stock for the period. These options are antidilutive and are excluded from the computation of earnings (loss) per share. The weighted average antidilutive stock options outstanding were as follows:
