Explanation of responses
- F1These shares were issued on June 1, 2017, in connection with a July 24, 2014 award of Class A common performance-based restricted stock. The award, initially determined as a cash value, was subject to a three-year performance period, which ended April 30, 2017. The number of shares issued was determined by multiplying the cash value of the award by a three-year performance adjustment factor, dividing the amount by $45.125, which is the closing price of the issuer's Class A common stock on the date of the grant, and then adjusting upwards to account for dividends paid during the performance period.
- F2Number of shares acquired through the issuer's dividend reinvestment plan as of June 5, 2017.
