Item 4. Purpose of Transaction
 
         The response set forth in Item 4 of the undersigned's 6th amendment to Schedule 13D is hereby amended by adding to the end of such response the following:

Since the time that members of the Bancroft family and trustees of trusts holding shares of the Issuer for the benefit of members of the Bancroft family were first advised of the possibility of a proposal by News Corporation to acquire the Issuer, various members of the family and trustees have been discussing whether they would be interested in the transaction proposed by News Corporation. To aid the family members and trustees in their decision-making process, on April 24, 2007, Merrill Lynch made a presentation to members of the family and trustees. Various discussions and communications among family members and trustees continued to ensue as to whether they would be interested in the proposed transaction. On May 1, 2007, it became apparent that family members and trustees holding a majority of the voting power of the Issuer were not interested in the News Corporation proposal and would vote the shares of the Issuer over which they have voting control against any transaction reflecting the terms of the proposal. The Issuer and its board of directors were so advised, and the Issuer made an announcement to that effect on May 1, 2007.

As a result of the matters described above, the undersigned may be deemed to constitute a "group" (within the meaning of Section 13(d)(3) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) with other members of the Bancroft family and Bancroft trustees who were not interested in the News Corporation proposal. The undersigned hereby (i) disclaims any membership in any such group, (ii) does not affirm the existence of such a group, and (iii) except as otherwise may be expressly indicated in this Schedule 13D, disclaims any beneficial ownership of any shares of the Issuer that may be or are beneficially owned by, among others, other members of the family or trustees.
