The following constitutes Amendment No. 1 to the Schedule 13D filed by the undersigned (“Amendment No. 1”).  This Amendment No. 1 amends the Schedule 13D as specifically set forth herein.
 
Item 3.
Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.
 
Item 3 is hereby amended and restated to read as follows:
 
The Shares purchased by Bandera Partners were purchased with working capital (which may, at any given time, include margin loans made by brokerage firms in the ordinary course of business) in open market purchases, except as otherwise noted, as set forth in Schedule A, which is incorporated by reference herein.  The aggregate purchase price of the 383,860 Shares owned directly by Bandera Partners is approximately $4,461,180, excluding brokerage commissions.  The aggregate purchase price of the 15,716 Shares owned directly by Mr. Gramm is approximately $221,717.  Mr. Gramm acquired these Shares with personal funds.
 
Item 5.
Interest in Securities of the Issuer.
 
Items 5(a) - 5(c) are hereby amended and restated to read as follows:
 
(a)           The aggregate percentage of Shares reported owned by each person named herein is based upon 10,472,839 Shares outstanding as of August 1, 2012, which is the total number of Shares outstanding as reported in the Issuer’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on August 3, 2012.
 
As of the close of business on August 14, 2012, Bandera Partners beneficially owned 383,860 Shares constituting approximately 3.7% of the Shares outstanding.  Mr. Gramm directly owned 15,716 Shares, which, together with the Shares beneficially owned by Bandera Partners, constitutes approximately 3.8% of the Shares outstanding.  By virtue of their respective relationships with Bandera Master Fund discussed in further detail in Item 2, each of Bandera Partners, Mr. Bylinsky, Mr. Gramm and Mr. Shpiz may be deemed to beneficially own the Shares owned by Bandera Master Fund.
 
(b)           Bandera Partners may be deemed to have the sole power to dispose of, direct the disposition of, vote or direct the vote of 383,860 Shares directly owned by Bandera Master Fund.  As Managing Partners, Managing Directors and Portfolio Managers of Bandera Partners, each of Mr. Bylinsky, Mr. Gramm and Mr. Shpiz may be deemed to have the shared power to dispose of, direct the disposition of, vote or direct the vote of 383,860 Shares directly owned by Bandera Master Fund. Mr. Gramm may be deemed to have the sole power to dispose of, direct the disposition of, vote or direct the vote of the 15,716 Shares owned directly by him.
 
(c)           Schedule A annexed hereto lists all transactions in securities of the Issuer during the past sixty days by the Reporting Persons.  All of such transactions were effected in the open market.
 
Item 5(e) is hereby amended and restated to read as follows:
 
(e)           The Reporting Persons ceased to be the beneficial owners of more than 5% of the Shares on August 10, 2012.
