(1) Each restricted stock unit represents a contingent right to receive one share of the underlying common stock.
(2) Represents shares of common stock withheld to satisfy the reporting person's tax obligation upon the vesting of restricted stock units and the corresponding acquisition of shares of common stock by the reporting person pursuant to the Issuer's 2001 Omnibus Incentive Compensation Plan (Amended and Restated as of May 4, 2010), as amended.
(3) The grant of restricted stock units was previously reported as 16,996 restricted stock units representing a contingent right to receive 16,996 shares of common stock of the Issuer, but was adjusted to reflect a grant of 20,041 restricted stock units representing a contingent right to receive 20,041 shares of common stock of the Issuer following the completion of the previously-announced spin-off of the Issuer's publishing business on June 29, 2015.
(4) The restricted stock units underlying the grant (i) vested as to 25% of the grant on each of December 31, 2017 and December 31, 2018, and (ii) will vest as to the remaining restricted stock units in two equal annual installments on each of December 31, 2019 and December 31, 2020. The corresponding shares of the Issuer's common stock (a) were delivered to the reporting person as to the applicable vested shares on each of January 2, 2018 and January 2, 2019, and (b) following vesting and unless delivered earlier following a change in control of the Issuer, will be delivered to the reporting person in two equal annual installments beginning on January 2, 2020.
