The 2nd share class was created years ago prior to the BNSF acquisition so BRK wouldn't have to spend a lot of cash buying fractional shares. Also Buffett didn't want to see the creation of single stock mutual funds, a very inefficient way for small investors to get into BRK. I've written on IHUB about that complicated saga.
