SUBSEQUENT EVENTS SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
Events occurring after March 31, 2020, and through the date that these consolidated financial statements were issued, were evaluated to ensure that any subsequent events that met the criteria for recognition have been included and are as follows:
Rights Agreement
On April 20, 2020, the Company entered into a Rights Agreement between the Company and American Stock Transfer & Trust company, LLC, as Rights Agent (as amended from time to time, the "Rights Agreement"), which was previously approved by the Board of Directors of the Company (the "Board of Directors").
In connection with the Rights Agreement, a dividend was declared of one preferred stock purchase right (each, a "Class A Right") for each share of the Company's Class A common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the "Class A Common Stock"), and one preferred stock purchase right (each, a "Class B Right" and, together with the Class A Rights, the "Rights") for each share of the Company's Class B common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the "Class B Common Stock" and, together with the Class A Common Stock, the "Common Stock"), outstanding at the close of business on May 5, 2020 (the "Record Date").
Once the Rights become exercisable, each Right will entitle the holder of each Class A Right to purchase one one-thousandth of a share of the Company's Series A Junior Participating Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.01 per share (the "Series A Preferred"), and, with respect to each Class B Right, one one-thousandth of a share of the Company's Series B Junior Participating Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.01 per share (the "Series B Preferred"), at a price of $6.06 per one one-thousandth of a share of Series A Preferred or Series B Preferred, as applicable (in each case, the "Purchase Price"). At the election of the Board of Directors, shares of Series A Preferred and Series B Preferred are convertible into shares of Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock, respectively.
The Rights will expire on April 20, 2021, subject to the Company's right to extend such date, unless earlier redeemed or exchanged by the Company or terminated.
In the event that a person becomes an Acquiring Person (as defined in the Rights Agreement, an "Acquiring Person") or if the Company were the surviving corporation in a merger with an Acquiring Person or any affiliate or associate of, or any person acting in concert with, an Acquiring Person and shares of Common Stock were not changed or exchanged in such merger, each holder of a Right, other than Rights that are or were acquired or beneficially owned by the Acquiring Person (which Rights will thereafter be void), will thereafter have the right to receive upon exercise that number of one-thousandths of a share of Series A Preferred or Series B Preferred, as applicable, equal to the number of shares of Class A Common Stock having a market value of two times the then current Purchase Price of one Right. In the event that, after a person has become an Acquiring Person, the Company were acquired in a merger or other business combination transaction or more than 50% of its assets or earning power were sold, proper provision shall be made so that each holder of a Right shall thereafter have the right to receive, upon exercise at the then current Purchase Price of the Right, that number of shares of common stock of the acquiring company which at the time of such transaction would have a market value of two times the then current Purchase Price of one Right.

At any time after a person becomes an Acquiring Person and prior to the earlier of one of the events described in the last sentence of the previous paragraph or the acquisition by such Acquiring Person acquiring 50% or more of the then outstanding Class A Common Stock, the Board of Directors may cause the Company to exchange the Rights (other than Rights owned by an Acquiring Person which have become void), in whole or in part, for shares of Series A Preferred or Series B Preferred, as applicable, at an exchange rate of one one-thousandth of a share of Series A Preferred per Class A Right and one one-thousandth of a share of Series B Preferred per Class B Right.
In the event that the Company receives a Qualifying Offer (as defined in the Rights Agreement), the holders of record of at least 10% or more of the shares of Common Stock then outstanding may submit to the Board of Directors a written demand requesting that the Board of Directors call a special meeting of the Company's shareholders for the purpose of voting on whether or not to exempt such Qualifying Offer from the terms of the Rights agreement. Upon the effective date of the exemption of the Rights, the right to exercise the Rights with respect to the Qualifying Offer will terminate.
The Rights are designed to assure that all of the Company's shareholders receive fair and equal treatment in the event of any proposed takeover of the Company. The Rights will cause substantial dilution to a person or group that acquires 10% (15% in the case of a passive institutional investor) or more of the Class A Common Stock on terms not approved by the Board of Directors.

The assets were classified within assets held for sale as of March 31, 2020, and December 31, 2019.
