Deferred stock units are the economic equivalent of one share of Class A common stock. Each award under the plan is fully vested when made, except that a director will forfeit his or her Account if the director's service on the Board is terminated, voluntarily or involuntarily, for any "Reason" as defined in the Company's Outside Directors' Deferred Stock Unit Plan (generally breach of policies, failure to perform duties, conviction of various crimes, embezzlement or materially injuring the Company). The deferred stock units will be paid out of the Director's Account in cash, within 30 days after the earlier of a Comapny Change in Control (as defined in the plan) or the date he or she ceases to be a non-employee director for any reason. Beginning at the 2011 Annual Meeting of Shareholders, these deferred stock units are being awarded after the election of directors at the Annual Meeting of Shareholders, and for 2011 only, a pro rated award of deferred stock units was made on January 1, 2011 for the short transition plan year period from January 1, 2011 through the 2011 Annual Meeting of Shareholders.
