The Company's authorized capital stock consists of 25 million shares of preferred stock, par value $.001 per share, 500 million shares of Class A common stock, par value $.001 per share, and 100 million shares of Class B common stock, par value $.001 per share.  The shares of Class A common stock and Class B common stock are identical in all respects, except for voting rights and certain conversion rights and transfer restrictions, as follows: (1) each share of Class A common stock entitles the holder to one vote on matters submitted to a vote of the Company's stockholders and each share of Class B common stock entitles the holder to ten votes on each such matter; (2) stock dividends of Class A common stock may be paid only to holders of Class A common stock and stock dividends of Class B common stock may be paid only to holders of Class B common stock; (3) if a holder of Class B common stock transfers such shares to a person other than a permitted transferee, as defined in the Company's Certificate of Incorporation, such shares will be converted automatically into shares of Class A common stock; and (4) Class A common stock has no conversion rights; however, each share of Class B common stock is convertible into one share of Class A common stock, in whole or in part, at any time at the option of the holder.  All outstanding Class B shares have been converted to Class A shares.  As of December 31, 2012 and 2013, there were no preferred or Class B common shares outstanding.

Repurchases of common stock

The board of directors has approved a stock repurchase program authorizing the Company to repurchase the Company's outstanding shares of Class A common stock on the open market or in private transactions. The repurchases are used primarily to offset dilution from the Company's equity incentive plans and for strategic initiatives. During the years ended December 31, 2011, 2012 and 2013, the Company repurchased approximately 1.9 million, 4.6 million and 1.7 million shares of Class A common stock for an aggregate price of approximately $67.1 million, $201.5 million and $140.9 million, respectively. In May 2012 and July 2013, the Company's board of directors authorized an increase of $250.0 million and $400.0 million, respectively, in the amount available under the Company's ongoing stock repurchase program. At December 31, 2013, $394.5 million was available for repurchases under the stock repurchase program.
