(1)	Represents less than 0.1 million shares.


(2)	During the three months ended June 30, 2020, the Company granted less than 0.1 million cash-settled share-appreciation rights ("CSARs"). The CSARs are revalued each reporting period until settlement using a closed-form option pricing model (Black Scholes).

Exchange Program

On January 10, 2020, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized, and on April 2, 2020, the Company’s shareholders approved, a stock option and share appreciation rights exchange program (the “Exchange Program”) that permitted certain current employees to exchange certain outstanding stock options and share appreciation rights with exercise prices substantially above the current market price of the Company’s Class A voting shares and the Company’s Class B non-voting shares for a lesser number of stock options and share appreciation rights that have a fair value that is lower than the fair value of the “out of the money” stock options and share appreciation rights. The program began on April 9, 2020 and was completed on May 7, 2020. As a result of this program 1.1 million outstanding eligible stock options and share appreciation rights of Class A voting shares were exchanged for 0.1 million new stock options and share appreciation rights at an exercise price of $7.70 per share and 4.3 million outstanding eligible stock options and share appreciation rights of Class B non-voting shares were exchanged for 0.8 million new stock options and share appreciation rights at an exercise price of $7.13.

During the three months ended June 30, 2020, the Company repurchased 0.2 million of its Class A voting shares for an aggregate cost of $1.0 million, with an average repurchase price per share of $5.75. During the three months ended June 30, 2019 the Company did not repurchase any common shares. To date, approximately $288.1 million common shares have been repurchased, leaving approximately $179.9 million of authorized potential purchases.
