(2) The annual dividend rate presented is calculated by annualizing the 2nd quarter of 2014 dividend payment of $0.875 per sh are of Class A common stock. The Company maintains a variable dividend policy and the Board of Directors, in its sole discretion, approves the payment of dividends. Actual divid end s in the future may differ materially from historical practice and from the annualized dividend rate presented. (3) The Company's dividends are eligible for the 23.8% federal income tax rate on qualified dividend income, whereas dividends p aid by REITs are generally subject to tax at ordinary income rates (currently at a maximum marginal federal rate of 43.4%). To provide the same after - tax return to a shareholder eli gible for the 23.8% rate on qualified dividend income and otherwise subject to the maximum marginal rate on ordinary income, a REIT would be required to pay dividends providing a 18% yield.
