| Stockholders’ Equity | Stockholders’ Equity Common Stock Holders of Class A Common Stock are entitled to one vote for each share.

The Company’s ability to pay dividends to stockholders is limited as a practical matter by restrictions in the agreements governing the Company's indebtedness. The authorized and unissued shares of Class A Common Stock are available for future issuance upon stock option exercises and vesting of restricted stock units without additional stockholder approval.

The share repurchase program may be suspended, modified or discontinued at any time at the Company’s discretion without prior notice.
