We are the owner of record of Shares held for your account. As such, we are the only ones who can tender your Shares, and then only pursuant to your instructions. We are sending you the Letter of Transmittal for your information only; you cannot use it to tender Shares we hold for your account.
Please instruct us as to whether you wish us to tender any or all of the Shares we hold for your account on the terms and subject to the conditions of the Offer.
Please note the following:
1. You may tender your Shares at a price of $10.00 per Share, as indicated in the attached Instruction Form, less any applicable withholding taxes and without interest.

6. Tendering shareholders who are registered shareholders or who tender their Shares directly to American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, LLC, the Depositary for the Offer, will not be obligated to pay any brokerage commissions or fees to the Company, solicitation fees, or, except as set forth in the Offer to Purchase, stock transfer taxes on the Companys purchase of Shares pursuant to the Offer.
If you wish to have us tender any or all of your Shares, please so instruct us by completing, executing, detaching and returning to us the attached Instruction Form. If you authorize us to tender your Shares, we will tender all of your Shares unless you specify otherwise on the attached Instruction Form.
Your prompt action is requested. Your Instruction Form should be forwarded to us in ample time to permit us to submit a tender on your behalf before the Expiration Time of the Offer.

The Offer is being made solely under the Offer to Purchase and is being made to all record holders of Shares of the Companys Class A Common Stock. The Offer is not being made to, nor will tenders be accepted from or on behalf of, holders of Shares residing in any jurisdiction in which the making of the Offer or acceptance thereof would not be in compliance with the securities, blue sky or other laws of such jurisdiction.
The Companys Board of Directors has approved the Offer. However, none of the Company, its Board of Directors, the Information Agent or the Depositary makes any recommendation to shareholders as to whether to tender or refrain from tendering their Shares and the Company has not authorized any person to make any such recommendation. Shareholders must make their own decision regarding whether to tender their Shares and, if so, how many Shares to tender. In doing so, shareholders should read and evaluate carefully the information in the Offer to Purchase and in the related Letter of Transmittal, including the Companys reasons for making the Offer. See Section 2 of the Offer to Purchase. Shareholders should consult with their brokers and financial and tax advisors with respect to the Offer.
