(1) These shares were acquired upon conversion of shares of Class B Common Stock, which were convertible on a 1-for-1 basis into shares of Class A Common Stock.
(2) Shares that are indicated as being "owned by LLC" are owned directly by Alcantara LLC (the "LLC"), and indirectly by Mr. Saylor as the sole member of the LLC. The LLC's address is the same as Mr. Saylor's address. The LLC has designated Mr. Saylor as the designated filer. Mr. Saylor is an officer, director and ten percent owner of the issuer.
(3) Separate open market sale transactions that were executed on 11/09/2006 at the same price have been reported on an aggregate basis on a single line in Table I. The order in which sale transactions are set forth in Table I is not necessarily reflective of the sequence in which the sale transactions occurred in fact.
(4) Shares of Class B Common Stock are convertible immediately upon receipt into shares of Class A Common Stock on a 1-for-1 basis and have no expiration date.
(5) See Exhibit A.
