Represents shares of the Issuer's Class A Common Stock received by the Reporting Person pursuant to the Issuer's dividend reinvestment plan since the last Statement of Changes in Beneficial Ownership was filed by the Reporting Person. Such acquisitions are exempt from Section 16 reporting requirements pursuant to Rule 16a-11.
Includes 6,620 shares of the Issuer's Class A Common Stock acquired by the Reporting Person pursuant to the Deferred Fee Plan for Directors, which shares shall vest 180 days after termination of the Reporting Person's service as a member of the Issuer's board of directors.
Each 4.75% Tangible Equity Unit (TEU) includes a prepaid stock purchase contract that will automatically settle on July 15, 2017 (subject to postponement in certain limited circumstances) for between 1.0582 and 1.3228 shares of the Issuer's Class A common stock (subject to adjustment in certain circumstances), based upon the applicable market value of the Issuer's Class A common stock prior to settlement. The Reporting Person may elect to settle the purchase contracts prior to July 15, 2017 at the minimum settlement rate of 1.0582 shares of the Issuer's Common Stock, and the Issuer may elect to settle the purchase contracts prior to such date at the maximum settlement rate of 1.3228 shares of the Issuer's Class A common stock. The purchase contracts may also be settled early in connection with certain fundamental changes of the Issuer.
Represents the maximum number of shares of the Issuer's Class A common stock initially issuable upon settlement of the purchase contracts included in the TEUs based on the maximum settlement rate.
