Board, page 25

2.      The factors listed in Instruction 2 to Item 1014 of Regulation M-A are

34-17719 (April
        13, 1981). Please revise this section to either include the factors
described in clauses (iv),

        not considered, please explain why the Changyou Board believes the Rule
13e-3
        transaction is fair in the absence of such safeguard.
