#### Effect of Votes Withheld and Abstentions
A vote withheld, in the case of the proposal regarding the election of directors, or an abstention, in the case of the other proposals to be considered at the Annual Meeting, represents a stockholder’s affirmative election to decline to vote on a proposal. If a stockholder withholds or abstains from voting shares on a proposal, these shares will be considered present and entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting on such proposal. As a result, votes withheld and abstentions will be counted for purposes of calculating whether a quorum is present at the Annual Meeting.

Because the outcome of Proposal 1 will be determined by a plurality of the votes cast by our stockholders, votes withheld will have no effect on the outcome of Proposal 1. Because the outcome of Proposals 2 and 3 will be determined by the affirmative vote of a majority of the combined voting power of the outstanding shares of our Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock present virtually or represented by proxy and entitled to vote on the proposal at the Annual Meeting, abstentions will be counted as a vote against Proposals 2 and 3. With respect to Proposal 4, because the option of every one, two or three years that receives a plurality of the votes cast by our stockholders will be deemed to be the frequency preferred by our stockholders, abstentions will have no effect on the outcome of Proposal 4.
