Reference is hereby made to the statement on Schedule 13D filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on June 1, 2007 (the “Original Schedule 13D”), Amendment No. 1 to the Original Schedule 13D filed with the SEC on June 12, 2012, Amendment No. 2 filed with the SEC on November 15, 2012, Amendment No. 3 filed with the SEC on May 15, 2013, Amendment No. 4 filed with the SEC on July 18, 2013, and Amendment No. 5 filed with the SEC on December 17, 2013 (together with the Original Schedule 13D, Amendment No. 1, Amendment No. 2, Amendment No. 3, and Amendment No. 4, the “Schedule 13D”) with respect to the Class A common stock, par value $1.00 per share (the “Class A Common Stock”), of the Company.  This Amendment No. 6 reflects updated information regarding the beneficial ownership of the other Class A Shareholders (as defined below).  Unless otherwise indicated, all capitalized terms used herein but not defined herein shall have the same meanings as set forth in the Schedule 13D.  The Reporting Persons hereby amend and supplement the Schedule 13D as follows.
Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer.
Item 5 is hereby amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows:
(a) The Reporting Persons beneficially own an aggregate 670,577 shares or 31.2% of the Class A Common Stock of the Company.  For further information, see the cover pages hereto which are hereby incorporated by reference. All percentages of outstanding Class A Common Stock are calculated based on information included in the Form 10-Q filed by the Company for the period ended September 30, 2014, which reported that 2,148,000 shares of Class A Common Stock were outstanding as of October 31, 2014.
The Reporting Persons may be deemed to constitute a group pursuant to Rule 13d-5(b) with certain other Class A Common Stock shareholders (“Other Class A Shareholders”) as a result of entering into a Class A Shareholders Agreement with those Other Class A Shareholders as described in Item 6 below.  If the Reporting Persons are deemed to have formed a group with the Other Class A Shareholders, each of the Reporting Persons could be deemed to beneficially own the shares collectively held by the group, which would be an aggregate 1,534,100 shares or 71.4% of the Class A Common Stock of the Company; however, each of the Reporting Persons disclaims beneficial ownership of the shares held by other members of the group except as expressly set forth herein.
 (b) The Partnership beneficially owns 603,497 shares or 28.1% of the Class A Common Stock of the Company. West Wesley Associates, LLC is the general partner of the Partnership and holds shared voting and dispositive power with the Partnership with respect to the shares owned by the Partnership.
Mr. Smith beneficially owns 670,577 shares or 31.2% of the Class A Common Stock of the Company.  Mr. Smith has sole voting and dispositive power with respect to 65,130 shares of Class A Common Stock.  Mr. Smith shares voting and dispositive power with respect to 1,950 shares of Class A Common Stock with his wife, Lamar Smith. As the manager of West Wesley Associates, LLC, the Partnership’s general partner, Mr. Smith shares with the Partnership and its general partner voting and dispositive power with respect to the 603,497 shares of Class A Common Stock held by the Partnership.  Mr. Smith disclaims beneficial ownership of the shares held by the Partnership except to the extent of his pecuniary interest therein.
(c) Except as set forth on Schedule 1 hereto, no other recent transactions in Class A Common Stock were effected by the Reporting Persons, or, to the best of the knowledge of the Reporting Persons, by any of the other persons named in response to Item 2, if any.
(d) Not applicable.
(e) Not applicable.
