Item 8.01. Other Events



On January 31, 2023, the Board of Directors of the Company (the "Board") received a proposal (the "Proposal") from the Company's controlling shareholders, the Jacobson/Gershwind family, to exchange their Class B common stock for shares of Class A common stock, reclassify the Company's Class B common stock and Class A common stock into a single class of common stock and eliminate the current dual-class share structure. The Board has formed a Special Committee composed entirely of independent directors to evaluate the Proposal, which will be advised by independent financial and legal advisors. Under the terms of the Proposal, any definitive agreement would first require approval by the Special Committee and the Board, as well as the holders of a majority of the Class A common stock that do not also hold Class B common stock.
