EXPLANATORY NOTE

 

Upon its effectiveness, the Registrant’s Registration Statement on Form S-8 (File No. 333-19727), originally filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) on January 14, 1997 (the “January Registration Statement”), covered certain shares of Common Stock of the Registrant related to the Registrant’s 1996 Stock Option and Incentive Plan, as Amended and Restated, and Employee Stock Option Program (the “Employee Stock Option Program”).

 

On April 25, 2003, all then outstanding stock options exercisable for shares of Common Stock of the Registrant were amended to entitle the holders thereof to acquire shares of Class B Common Stock of the Registrant instead of Common Stock. As a result, a total of 156,260 shares of Common Stock covered by the January Registration Statement are no longer issuable pursuant to the Employee Stock Option Program.

 

Accordingly, by this Post-Effective Amendment No. 1, the Registrant hereby deregisters 156,260 shares of Common Stock covered by the January Registration Statement. These deregistered shares have been registered by the Registrant on a Registration Statement on Form S-8 as shares of Class B Common Stock.
