Item 8.01 Other Events.
On March 10, 2017, the Board of Directors (the "Board") of the Company approved and recommended that the Company’s shareholders approve a 1-for-100 reverse stock split (the "Reverse Split") of the Company’s shares of Class A Stock and Class B common stock, with an effective date of June 30, 2017. On March 28, 2017, the Board determined that the effective date of the Reverse Split should be deferred to no earlier than the fourth quarter of 2017.
On March 28, 2017, in recognition of the deferral of the Reverse Stock Split, the Board opted to forego implementation of the share repurchase plan that was originally approved by the Board on March 10, 2017, and announced by the Company on Form 8-K on March 14, 2017.
