Consistent with their investment research methods and evaluation criteria, the Filers may discuss such matters with the Issuer's management or directors, other shareholders, industry analysts, existing or potential strategi c partners or competitors, investment and financing professionals, sources of credit and other investors.

The Filers may formulate other plans and/or make other proposals, and take such actions with respect to the Shares, including any or all of the actions described in sections (a) through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, certain of the Filers sent a letter (a) on December 5, 2007, to the Issuer's board of directors (the "Board") urging it to consider a high dividend payment model or selling the Issuer, (b) on October 9, 2007, to the independent members of the Boar d asking them to consider certain questions in connection with maximizing the value of the Issuer for all shareholders and (c) on July 9, 2007, to the Board recommending that the Issuer, among other things, make changes to its capital allocation strategy.
