For the years ended February 29, 2012, February 28, 2011, and February 28, 2010, stock-based
awards, primarily stock options, which could result in the issuance of 8.9 million shares, 20.7 million shares and 30.4 million shares, respectively, of Class A Common Stock were outstanding, but were not included in the
computation of earnings per common share – diluted for Class A Common Stock because the effect of including such awards would have been antidilutive.
