(1) Our Board of Directors previously authorized stock repurchases of up to $1.0 billion of our Class A common
stock. On November 3, 2009, our Board of Directors extended the plan and authorized an increase in the
maximum dollar value of shares that may be repurchased under the plan, such that we are currently authorized
to repurchase up to $1.0 billion of our outstanding shares through and including December 31, 2010. This
authorization is not subject to a limitation to purchase no more than 20% of our outstanding common stock.
Purchases under our repurchase program may be made through open market purchases, privately negotiated
transactions, or Rule 10b5-1 trading plans, subject to market conditions and other factors. We may elect not
to purchase the maximum amount of shares allowable under this program and we may also enter into
additional share repurchase programs authorized by our Board of Directors.
