* Because the Class B redeemable common stock was, prior to the completion of the IPO, subject to redemption at the option of the holder from and after December 15, 2011 at a redemption price equal to the aggregate fair value of the shares being redeemed, the Class B redeemable common stock historically has been classified on our condensed consolidated balance sheet as temporary equity, rather than stockholders' equity. For further discussion on the Class B redeemable common stock, see the Company's Prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, with the SEC on July 28, 2011.
