Item 4. Purpose of Transaction

The information set forth in Item 6 of this Statement is hereby incorporated herein by reference.

The Reporting Persons hold the Class A common stock for investment purposes, but they may review and evaluate strategic alternatives, opportunities to increase shareholder value, Issuer operations, governance and control, and other matters related to the Issuer. Depending on market conditions and other factors (including evaluation of the Issuer’s businesses and prospects, availability of funds, alternative uses of funds and general economic conditions), the Reporting Persons may from time to time acquire additional securities of the Issuer or dispose of all or a portion of their investment in the Issuer.

Except as set forth in the preceding paragraph and in Item 6 of this Statement, as of the date hereof, the Reporting Persons do not have any plan or proposal that relates to or would result in any of the transactions enumerated in sub items (a) through (j) of the instructions to Item 4 of this Statement.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Reporting Persons reserve the right to effect any such actions as any of them may deem necessary or appropriate in the future.

Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer

(a)—(b) The information relating to the beneficial ownership of the Class A common stock, by each of the Reporting Persons set forth in Rows 7 through 13 of the cover pages hereto is incorporated by reference herein and is as of the date hereof.

By virtue of their relationship, each Reporting Person may be deemed to share the power to vote or direct the vote and to share the power to dispose of or direct the disposition of the shares of Class A common stock as set forth in rows 7 through 13 of the cover pages of this Statement. The filing of this Statement shall not be construed as an admission that any such person or individual described herein is, for the purpose of Section 13(d) or 13(g) of the Exchange Act, the beneficial owner of any securities covered by this Statement.

(c) Except as otherwise set forth in this Statement, none of the Reporting Persons has effected any transactions in the Class A common stock during the past 60 days.

(d) Except as stated within this Item 5, only the Reporting Persons have the right to receive or the power to direct the receipt of dividends from, or proceeds from the sale of, the Class A common stock of the Issuer reported by this Statement.

(e) Inapplicable.
