This Amendment No. 5 to Schedule 13D is filed to report the following changes to the information previously disclosed in Amendment No. 4 to Schedule 13D filed February 10, 2012.

Item 1. Security and Issuer.

No material change.

Item 2. Identity and Background.

No material change.

Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.

The Reporting Person’s deemed disposition reflected in this Amendment No. 5 to Schedule 13D results from the expiration on December 6, 2012, of employee stock options to acquire a total of 40,000 shares of the Issuer’s Series B Common Stock. No funds were expended in connection with the foregoing deemed disposition.

Item 4. Purpose of Transaction.

The Reporting Person intends to review his investment in the Issuer on a continuing basis and may, at any time, consistent with the Reporting Person’s obligations under the federal securities laws, determine to increase or decrease his ownership of shares of the Issuer’s Series A and B Common Stock through purchases or sales in the open market or in privately-negotiated transactions. The Reporting Person’s review of his investment in the Issuer will depend on various factors, including the Issuer’s business prospects, other developments concerning the Issuer, general economic conditions, financial and stock market conditions, the Reporting Person’s personal financial situation, need for, and availability of capital, and any other facts and circumstances which may become known to the Reporting Person regarding his investment in the Issuer. At the time of filing this Amendment No. 5 to Schedule 13D, the Reporting Person has no plans to purchase additional shares of common stock in the open market in the immediate future. However, the Reporting Person may engage in privately-negotiated transactions in the future, may from time-to-time acquire additional shares of common stock under various benefit and compensation arrangements of the Issuer, and reserves his right to reevaluate his investment in the Issuer and to purchase additional shares in the open market or otherwise.


CUSIP No. 001282 20 1   13D/A   Page 6 of 8

Except as may occur in the ordinary course of business of the Issuer, the Reporting Person has no present plans or proposals that relate to or would result in (i) an extraordinary corporate transaction, such as a merger, reorganization, or liquidation, involving the Issuer or any of its subsidiaries, (ii) a sale or transfer of a material amount of assets of the Issuer or any of its subsidiaries, (iii) any change in the board of directors or executive management of the Issuer or any of its subsidiaries, (iv) any material change in the present capitalization or dividend policy of the Issuer, (v) any other material change in the Issuer’s business or corporate structure, (vi) changes in the Issuer’s Certificate of Incorporation or bylaws or other actions that may impede the acquisition of control of the Issuer by any person, (vii) a series of securities of the Issuer being delisted from a national securities exchange or no longer being quoted in an inter-dealer quotation system of a registered national securities association, (viii) a series of equity securities of the Issuer becoming eligible for termination of registration pursuant to Section 12(g)(4) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, or (ix) any action similar to any of those described above. However, the Reporting Person, in his capacity as Chairman of the Board, President and Chief Executive Officer may, from time to time, become aware of, initiate, and/or be involved in discussions that relate to the transactions described in this Item 4 and thus retains his right to modify his plans with respect to the transactions described in this Item 4 to acquire or dispose of securities of the Issuer and to formulate plans and proposals that could result in the occurrence of any such events, subject to applicable laws and regulations.

Such number of shares includes 4,631 Series B shares owned by the Reporting Person and his wife, as to which the Reporting Person shares voting and dispositive power, and 133,864 Series B shares subject to presently exercisable options or options exercisable within 60 days of the date of the filing of this Amendment No. 5 to Schedule 13D. Such number does not include 240 Series B shares held by the Reporting Person’s wife, as to all of which shares the Reporting Person disclaims beneficial ownership.

(b) As of the date of filing of this Amendment No. 5 to Schedule 13D, the Reporting Person has sole voting power and sole dispositive power over 1,588,489 shares of the Issuer’s Series B Common Stock, which represents approximately 62.4% of the shares of the Issuer’s Series B Common Stock treated as being outstanding as of October 25, 2012. As of the date of filing of this Amendment No. 5 to Schedule 13D, the Reporting Person has shared voting power and shared dispositive power over 4,631 shares of the Issuer’s Series B Common Stock, which represents approximately 0.2% of the shares of the Series B Common Stock of the Issuer treated as being outstanding as of October 25, 2012.
