No funds of any of the reporting persons were used in connection with the issuer’s repurchases of its shares of Class A common stock, as described in Item 4 below and incorporated by reference herein, or as otherwise publicly disclosed by the issuer.

Item 4. Purpose of Transaction.

Item 4 is amended and restated to read as follows:

In December 2015, Stephen F. Butterfield and his spouse Shelby J. Butterfield contributed a total of 1,200,000 shares of Class B common stock to twelve separate grantor retained annuity trusts (“GRATs”) established by Mr. Butterfield and Ms. Butterfield on December 18, 2015 (the “Butterfield GRATs”). On January 3, 2017, Mr. Butterfield contributed 70,286 shares of Class B common stock to a charitable lead annuity trust (“CLAT”). Such transactions were conducted for tax and estate planning purposes. Whitetail Rock Capital Management, LLC (“WRCM”) was selected by Mr. Butterfield and Ms. Butterfield to serve as investment adviser for the Butterfield GRATs and the CLAT due in part to Mr. Butterfield’s familiarity, as Vice Chairman of the Board of Directors of the issuer, with WRCM, a majority owned subsidiary of the issuer and registered as an investment adviser under Section 203 of the Investment Advisers Act of 1940. Mr. Butterfield passed away on April 16, 2018. Under the Butterfield GRATs and the CLAT, annuity payments are made to Ms. Butterfield and Mr. Butterfield’s estate, and a charitable organization, respectively, and such annuity payments may be in the form of shares of Class B common stock. The number of shares of Class B common stock to be distributed as an annuity payment is based in part on the market price of the Class A common stock on the distribution date and therefore cannot be calculated until the date of the distribution. In addition to shares of Class B common stock, annuity payments (and their associated timing) may be based upon, and include, amounts generated from the holdings of the Butterfield GRATs and the CLAT, including, among other things, dividends paid or payable with respect to the shares of Class B common stock held in the Butterfield GRATs and the CLAT. In addition, the Butterfield GRATs and the CLAT may in the future determine to otherwise acquire or dispose of securities of the issuer, but as of the date hereof there are no such plans or proposals.

On November 7, 2017, the issuer reported in its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended September 30, 2017 that during the nine months ended September 30, 2017 the issuer repurchased a total of 1,363,571 shares of its Class A common stock under its publicly disclosed stock repurchase program. As a result of such issuer stock repurchases and the corresponding reduction in the number of shares of Class A common stock outstanding, the percentage of securities beneficially owned by Mr. Dunlap increased from approximately 42.5% as reported in Amendment No. 1 to approximately 43.8%, and the percentage of securities beneficially owned by UFS increased from below 5% to approximately 5.1%.

Effective as of March 14, 2019, the estate of Stephen F. Butterfield transferred 778,089 shares of Class B common stock to the Butterfield Family Trust, an estate planning trust for Mr. Butterfield’s family and for which WRCM serves as investment adviser with respect to shares of the issuer’s stock held therein. In addition, also effective as of March 14, 2019, the Stephen F. Butterfield Revocable Living Trust transferred 135,332 shares of Class B common stock to the restated Stephen F. Butterfield Revocable Living Trust, for which restated trust WRCM serves as investment adviser with respect to shares of the issuer’s stock held therein. Such transfers were made for estate planning purposes. WRCM was selected by the Butterfield Family Trust and the restated Stephen F. Butterfield Revocable Living Trust to serve as

investment adviser for such trusts due in part to the familiarity with WRCM as investment adviser for other Butterfield-related trusts, as indicated above.

On April 5, 2019, the estate of Stephen F. Butterfield transferred, effective as of March 14, 2019, its 50% of the outstanding capital stock of UFS, which holds 1,586,691 shares of Class B common stock, to the Butterfield Family Trust, for which trust WRCM serves as investment adviser with respect to shares of the issuer’s stock held therein, including shares of the issuer’s stock held by such trust indirectly through UFS. Such transfer was made for estate planning purposes. Mr. Dunlap is chairman, president, and treasurer of UFS and owns the remaining 50% of the outstanding capital stock of UFS, and Ms. Butterfield is the other director of UFS.

On September 5, 2019, Mr. Dunlap and his spouse contributed 1,100,000 shares and 500,000 shares, respectively, of Class B common stock to Dunlap Holdings, LLC, a family limited liability company which is controlled by Mr. Dunlap and his family. On September 6, 2019, Mr. Dunlap and his spouse each contributed 100 shares of Class B common stock to the respective separate dynasty trusts established in 2019 by Mr. Dunlap and his spouse (each a “2019 Dynasty Trust” and collectively the “2019 Dynasty Trusts”). The initial beneficiaries of each 2019 Dynasty Trust are the three adult sons of Mr. Dunlap and his spouse. On September 6, 2019, Mr. Dunlap and his spouse made gifts of, in the aggregate, a 15.78% interest, subject to possible future adjustment based on the final valuation of the interest, in Dunlap Holdings, LLC to the 2019 Dynasty Trusts. Such transactions were conducted for tax and estate planning purposes.

On May 12, 2020, Mr. Dunlap and his spouse sold, in the aggregate, an 84.2% interest in Dunlap Holdings, LLC to the 2019 Dynasty Trusts in exchange for promissory notes in the aggregate principal amount equal to a valuation of the transferred interests. In addition, also on May 12, 2020, Mr. Dunlap and his spouse contributed a total of 165,000 shares of Class B common stock and 240,000 shares of Class B common stock, respectively, to six separate GRATs established by each of Mr. Dunlap and his spouse, respectively, on May 12, 2020 (with the total of twelve separate GRATs collectively referred to as the “Dunlap 2020 GRATs”). Such transactions were conducted for tax and estate planning purposes. Under the Dunlap 2020 GRATs, annuity payments are made to Mr. Dunlap and Ms. Dunlap, and such annuity payments may be in the form of shares of Class B common stock. The number of shares of Class B common stock to be distributed as an annuity payment is based in part on the market price of the Class A common stock on the distribution date and therefore cannot be calculated until the date of the distribution. In addition to shares of Class B common stock, annuity payments (and their associated timing) may be based upon, and include, amounts generated from the holdings of the Dunlap 2020 GRATs, including, among other things, dividends paid or payable with respect to the shares of Class B common stock held in the Dunlap 2020 GRATs. In addition, the Dunlap 2020 GRATs may in the future determine to otherwise acquire or dispose of securities of the issuer, but as of the date hereof there are no such plans or proposals.

On May 20, 2020, the Butterfield Family Trust transferred, pursuant to the terms thereof, (i) its 50% of the outstanding capital stock of UFS, which holds 1,586,691 shares of Class B common stock, to the Butterfield GST Non-Exempt Marital Trust, for which trust WRCM serves as investment adviser with respect to shares of the issuer’s stock held therein, including shares of the issuer’s stock held by such trust indirectly through UFS; (ii) 180,719 shares of Class B common stock to the Stephen F. Butterfield GST Exempt Marital Trust (the “Butterfield GST Exempt Marital Trust”), for which trust WRCM serves as investment adviser with respect to shares of the issuer’s stock held therein; and (iii) 507,370 shares of Class B common stock to the Butterfield GST Non-Exempt Marital Trust. In addition, also on May 20, 2020, the estate of Stephen F. Butterfield made testamentary dispositions of 29,328 shares of Class B common stock to the Butterfield GST Exempt Marital Trust and 510 shares of Class A common stock to the Butterfield GST Non-Exempt Marital Trust. Such transfers were made for estate planning purposes. Mr. Dunlap is chairman, president, and treasurer of UFS and owns the remaining 50% of the outstanding capital stock of UFS, and Ms. Butterfield is the other director of UFS.

As indicated in Item 2(c) above, Mr. Dunlap serves as the issuer’s Executive Chairman of the Board of Directors, and is also a significant shareholder of the issuer with substantial voting power and control with respect to the issuer, and as a result, in the ordinary course of business or otherwise, Mr. Dunlap regularly considers and explores potential actions and transactions that Mr. Dunlap believes may be advantageous to the issuer and intends to continue to discuss with the issuer, consider, encourage, and potentially approve such matters and take such actions as Mr. Dunlap considers to be in the best interests of the issuer, including to influence or make changes with respect to the issuer’s board of directors (including the composition, number, or terms of directors), management, business, charter or bylaws, and other general affairs, which matters and actions could potentially relate to or result in one or more of the transactions or changes enumerated in the penultimate sentence of this paragraph. As indicated above and in Item 5(d) below, (i) Mr. Dunlap is

Other than as set forth herein (including the material filed as exhibits to this statement), or as publicly disclosed by the issuer (including in connection with its publicly disclosed stock repurchase program), none of Mr. Dunlap, UFS, or Dunlap Holdings, LLC has any present plans or proposals which relate to or would result in: the acquisition by any person of additional securities of the issuer, or the disposition of securities of the issuer; an extraordinary corporate transaction, such as a merger, reorganization or liquidation involving the issuer or any of its significant subsidiaries; a sale or transfer of a material amount of assets of the issuer or any of its subsidiaries; any change in the present board of directors or management of the issuer, including any plans or proposals to change the number or term of directors or to fill any existing vacancies on the board; any material change in the present capitalization or dividend policy of the issuer; any other material change in the issuer’s business or corporate structure; changes in the issuer’s charter or bylaws or other actions which may impede the acquisition of control of the issuer by any person; causing a class of securities of the issuer to be delisted from a national securities exchange or to cease to be authorized to be quoted in an inter-dealer quotation system of a registered national securities association; a class of equity securities of the issuer becoming eligible for termination of registration pursuant to Section 12(g)(4) of the Act; or any action similar to any of those enumerated above. However, Mr. Dunlap, UFS, and Dunlap Holdings, LLC reserve the right to develop any such plans or proposals, and in doing so may take into consideration various factors, such as the issuer’s businesses and prospects, other developments concerning the issuer, and general economic, industry, and stock market conditions.
