*These numbers include: 102,225 Class A shares and 258,689 Class B shares held by the Peter Martin Wege Trust F/B/O Christopher Wege; 461,939 Class A shares and 800,050 Class B shares held by the Peter Martin Wege Trust F/B/O Diana Wege; 2,167,189 Class A shares held by the Peter Martin Wege Trust F/B/O Johanna Osman; 382,239 Class A shares held by the Peter Martin Wege Trust F/B/O Jonathan Wege; 2,807,189 Class B shares held by the Peter Martin Wege Trust F/B/O Mary Goodwille Nelson; 75,000 Class A shares and 344,569 Class B shares held by the Peter Martin Wege Trust F/B/O Peter M. Wege, II; and 693,661 Class A shares and 369,569 Class B shares held by the Peter Martin Wege Trust F/B/O Susan Carter. The reporting person disclaims beneficial ownership of these shares. Under these trusts, the reporting person has no ability to vote or direct the disposition of the shares; however, the reporting person can prevent any disposition of these shares by the independent trustees.

The number of shares reported above includes 4,580,066 shares of Class B Common Stock of the Issuer which are immediately convertible into an equal number of shares of Class A Common Stock at the option of the holder. In addition, if shares of Class B Common Stock are transferred to any persons other than a "Permitted Transferee" (as defined in the Issuer's Second Restated Articles of Incorporation), such shares are automatically converted on share-for-share basis into shares of Class A Common Stock. Shares of Class B Common Stock of the Issuer have the same attributes as shares of Class A Common Stock of the Issuer except that each share of Class B Common Stock entitles the holder thereof to ten votes on all matters upon which shareholders have a right to vote and each share of Class A Common Stock entitles the holder thereof to one vote on such matters.

If all the outstanding shares of Class B Common Stock of the Issuer were converted into shares of Class A Common Stock, Mr. Wege may be deemed to beneficially own approximately 7.7% of the outstanding Class A Common Stock.

Item 5.

Ownership of Five Percent or Less of a Class.
