PREFERRED STOCK AND COMMON STOCK
  
Preferred Stock
 
At December 30, 2012, the Company was authorized to issue approximately 10.0 million shares of $0.001 par value preferred stock. As of December 30, 2012 and January 1, 2012, the Company had no preferred stock issued and outstanding.
 
In fiscal 2008, the Company entered into a rights agreement with Computershare Trust Company, N.A., as rights agents, which provided for the issuance of shares of Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock to holders of the Company’s former class A common stock, and the issuance of shares of Series B Junior Participating Preferred Stock to holders of its former class B common stock, in certain circumstances defined therein. On November 16, 2011, the Company amended the rights agreement as a result of the Company's reclassification of its former class A common stock and former class B common stock into a single class of common stock, as described below. Under the amended rights agreement each of the former class A and former class B Rights became a "Right" to purchase Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock of the Company.

Common Stock
 
On November 15, 2011, the Company's stockholders approved the reclassification of all outstanding former class A common stock and former class B common stock into a single class of common stock. The reclassification was effective November 16, 2011 upon which each share of the Company's outstanding former class A common stock and former class B common stock automatically reclassed as, and became one share of, a new single class of common stock having the same voting powers, rights and qualifications, limitations and restrictions as the former Class A common stock.

In connection with the reclassification, the Company entered into four new supplemental indentures on November 16, 2011, covering the Company’s 4.50%, debentures, 4.75% debentures, 1.25% debentures and 0.75% debentures (see Note 12).

Voting Rights - Common Stock

Prior to the November 16, 2011 reclassification, holders of shares of former class B common stock were entitled to cast eight votes per share on any matters subject to a stockholder vote, and holders of share of former class A common stock were entitled to cast one vote per share. As a result of the reclassifications, all common stock holders are entitled to one vote per share on all matters submitted to be voted on by the Company's stockholders, subject to the preferences applicable to any preferred stock outstanding.

Dividends - Common Stock

All common stock holders are entitled to receive equal per share dividends when and if declared by the Board of Directors, subject to the preferences applicable to any preferred stock outstanding. The Company's credit facilities place restrictions on the Company and its subsidiaries’ ability to pay cash dividends. Additionally, the 1.25% debentures and 0.75% debentures, as amended by the associated November 16, 2011 supplemental indentures, allow the holders to convert their bonds into the Company's common stock if the Company declares a dividend that on a per share basis exceeds 10% of its common stock’s market price.

As of December 30, 2012, common stock consisted of the following:
