Each Class B Share is convertible, at any time at the option of the holder, and under certain limited circumstances may automatically convert, into one Class A Share. Accordingly, for purposes of the Schedule 13D and this Amendment, the respective numbers of Class B Shares owned beneficially by the Reporting Persons are presented as if those Class B Shares had been converted into Class A Shares. Except with respect to voting rights, the Class B and Class A Shares are identical in all respects and, except as may be required by applicable law, the holders of the outstanding Class A Shares and Class B Shares vote together as a single class. The holders of Class B Shares are entitled to cast 10 votes per share, whereas the holders of Class A Shares are entitled to cast one vote per share, on all matters presented to a vote of the Company’s common stockholders. For ease of reference, the Class B and the Class A Shares shall sometimes be referred to in this Amendment, generically, as “Company Shares”).
