    <footnotes>
        <footnote id="F1">On February 14, 2005, a Form 5 was filed inadvertently reporting the transfer of 1,650 shares of Class B Common Stock from the Greenberg Family Trust to a custodial account for Chloe J. Greenberg UTMA/CA on December 30, 2004, which transfer did not in fact occur until January 14, 2005.  As of December 30, 2004, the reporting person owned 11,976,190 shares of Class B Common Stock, and the transfer on January 14, 2005 is voluntarily reported early on a Form 4 filed on August 22, 2005, rather than on a Form 5 for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2005.</footnote>
