(2) The potential realizable value portion of the foregoing table illustrates amounts that might be realized upon exercise of the options immediately prior to the expiration of their term, assuming the specified compounded rates of appreciation on the Class A Common Stock, over the scheduled life of the options. This schedule does not take into account provisions of certain options providing for termination of the option following termination of employment, nontransferability or vesting schedules. The dollar amounts under these columns are the result of calculations at the 5% and 10% rates set by the Securities and Exchange Commission and therefore are not intended to forecast possible future appreciation, if any, of the Company's stock price. The column indicating 0% appreciation is included to reflect the fact that a zero percent gain in stock price appreciation from the market price of the Class A Common Stock on the date of grant will result in zero dollars for the optionee. No gain to the optionees is possible without an increase in stock price, which will benefit all stockholders commensurately. Dollar amounts shown are not discounted to present value. ---------------------------------- The following table sets forth the number and value of unexercised options held by the named individuals as of the end of the Company's last fiscal year.
