Explanation of responses
- F1Represents the number of shares that were acquired upon conversion of Class B Common Stock to Class A Common Stock in connection with the settlement of the Restricted Stock Units ("RSUs") listed in Table II.
- F2Represents the number of shares required to be sold by the reporting person to cover tax withholding obligations in connection with the vesting of the RSUs listed in Table II. This sale is mandated by the Issuer's election under its equity incentive plans to require the satisfaction of tax withholding obligations to be funded by a "sell to cover" transaction and does not represent a discretionary trade by the reporting person.
- F3The reported price in Column 4 is a weighted average price. These shares were sold in multiple transactions at prices ranging from $89.585 to $90.00 per share, inclusive. The reporting person undertakes to provide to the issuer, any security holder of the issuer, or the staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission, upon request, full information regarding the number of shares sold at each separate price within the range set forth in this footnote (3).
- F4Each RSU represents a contingent right to receive 1 share of the issuer's Class B Common Stock upon settlement.
- F5The RSUs vested as to 1/5th of the total shares on January 15, 2012 and then an additional 1/20th of the total shares vest quarterly thereafter, subject to continued service through each vesting date.
- F6The Class B Common Stock is convertible into the issuer's Class A Common Stock on a 1-for-1 basis (a) at the holder's option or (b) upon certain transfers of such shares, and has no expiration date.
- F7The holder elected to convert the shares of Class B Common Stock into Class A Common Stock on a 1-for-1 basis.
