As of April 20, 2026, the record date, there were issued and outstanding 22,445,316 shares of Class A common stock (including 1,124,565 shares of treasury stock), $2.00 par value, and 3,587,237 shares of Class C common stock (including 104,604 shares of treasury stock), $2.00 par value, for a total of 26,032,553 shares of the Company’s common stock outstanding. A majority of the outstanding shares of Class A and Class C common stock (or 12,401,693 shares) constituted a quorum for the transaction of business at the Annual Meeting. The Annual Meeting met the quorum requirements. A total of 22,031,400 shares were represented in person or by proxy and voted at the Annual Meeting—18,578,647 shares of Class A common stock and 3,452,753 shares of Class C common stock—constituting in excess of majorities of each of those classes.
