Routine tax-withholding entries with no open-market trading.

Executive Vice President Edward H. Sim reported two Form 4 transactions coded “F,” indicating shares were delivered to cover tax liabilities on equity compensation. A total of 1,297 Class B shares were used for this purpose across the two dates.

These dispositions are not open-market sales or purchases and therefore carry limited informational value about the executive’s view of the stock. After these entries, Sim’s direct holdings stand at 18,386 Class B shares, suggesting the transactions are small relative to his remaining position.
