Such notice, which need not be sent in advance of the occurrence of the applicable Conversion Time, shall state, as appropriate and together with such other information as the Corporation may deem appropriate to include in such notice: (i) the effective date of the conversion; and (ii) the number and series of shares of Class A Common Stock or Class B Common Stock, as the case may be, that were or are to be automatically converted and the number and class and series of shares, as applicable, into which the converted (or to be converted) shares were (or are to be) converted.

(b)In the event of an Automatic Conversion of any shares of Class A Common Stock or any shares of Class B Common Stock, the certificates formerly representing each such share of Class A Common Stock or Class B Common Stock shall thereupon and thereafter be deemed to represent such number and series (if applicable) of shares of Class A Common Stock or Common

Stock, as applicable, into which such shares of Class A Common Stock or Class B Common Stock were converted pursuant to such Automatic Conversion unless and until such certificate or certificates are exchanged in accordance with the following paragraph.

(c)From and after the Conversion Time applicable to shares of Class A Common Stock or Class B Common Stock converted pursuant to an Automatic Conversion any holder of such shares of former Class A Common Stock or former Class B Common Stock may surrender such holder’s certificate or certificates for such shares (or, if such registered holder alleges that such certificate has been lost, stolen or destroyed, such holder shall provide the Corporation with a lost certificate affidavit and agreement reasonably acceptable to the Corporation to indemnify the Corporation and the transfer agent (if the Corporation does not serve as its own transfer agent) at the office of the transfer agent for the Class A Common Stock (or at the principal office of the Corporation if the Corporation serves as its own transfer agent) and if requested by the Corporation or the transfer agent (if applicable), the posting of a surety bond in customary amount and upon customary terms, against any claim that may be made against the Corporation and/or the transfer agent on account of the alleged loss, theft or destruction of such certificate), at the office of the transfer agent for the Class A Common Stock and/or Class B Common Stock (or at the principal office of the Corporation if the Corporation serves as its own transfer agent), together with written notice that such holder would like one or more new certificates (if any) representing the shares of Class A Common Stock or Common Stock, as applicable, into which such shares of Class A Common Stock and/or Class B Common Stock were converted pursuant to the Automatic Conversion. Such notice shall state such holder’s name or, where shares were converted into shares of Common Stock, the names of the nominees in which such holder wishes the certificate or certificates (if any) for such shares to be issued. If required by the Corporation, certificates surrendered for conversion shall be endorsed or accompanied by a written instrument or instruments of transfer, in form satisfactory to the Corporation, duly executed by the registered holder or his, her or its attorney duly authorized in writing. The Corporation shall, as soon as practicable after any such surrender following the Conversion Time applicable to any such shares, issue and deliver to such holder, or where shares were converted into shares of Common Stock, to his, her or its nominees, a certificate or certificates (if any) for the number of shares of Class A Common Stock or Common Stock into which such shares of Class A Common Stock and/or Class B Common Stock were converted pursuant to the Automatic Conversion.

(3)Effect of Conversion. Each share of Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock converted as herein provided shall no longer be deemed to be outstanding and all rights with respect to such share shall immediately cease and terminate at the Conversion Time applicable to such share, except only the right of the holder thereof to receive shares of Class A Common Stock or Common Stock, as the case may be, in exchange therefor and to receive payment of any dividends declared but unpaid on

the share so converted for which the record date has already occurred. Any shares of any series of Class A Common Stock or Class B Common Stock so converted shall be retired and cancelled and may not be reissued as shares of such series, and the Corporation may thereafter take such appropriate action (without the need for stockholder action) as may be necessary to reduce the authorized number of shares of the applicable series of Class A Common Stock or Class B Common Stock accordingly.

However, if any such shares are to be issued in a name other than that of the holder of the share or shares of Class A Common Stock and/or Class B Common Stock converted, the person or persons requesting the issuance thereof shall pay to the Corporation the amount of any tax which may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in such issuance or shall establish to the satisfaction of the Corporation that such tax has been paid or is not required to be paid.
