Equity | Note 13: Equity Common Stock In the aggregate, holders of our Class A common stock have 66 2/3% of the voting power of our common stock and holders of our Class B common stock have 331/3% of the voting power of our common stock. Our Class A Special common stock is generally nonvoting. Each share of our Class B common stock is entitled to 15 votes.

Our Class B common stock is convertible, share for share, into Class A or Class A Special common stock, subject to certain restrictions.
