* If the form is filed by more than one reporting person, see Instruction 4(b)(v).
** Intentional misstatements or omissions of facts constitute Federal Criminal Violations. See 18 U.S.C. 1001 and 15 U.S.C. 78ff(a).

The units are to be converted on a one-for-one basis and settled in Class A common shares upon the reporting person's termination of employment with the issuer, or earlier or later upon certain elections.
(5) Prior to recent amendments in the provisions of the EDCP I and EDCP II, ownership of these units had been reported in Table II of Forms 3, 4 and 5. Under the EDCP I and EDCP II, as amended, units can only be settled in Class A common shares of the issuer, so their ownership is now being reported in Table I.

(7) The option vests in three equal annual installments beginning on 2/15/2009.
(8) Shares owned by an adult child of the reporting person who lived with the reporting person were previously reported separately. The reporting person disclaimed beneficial ownership of those securities. The adult child no longer lives with the reporting person and reporting of those securities is being discontinued.
