Item 2. Identity and Background This statement is being filed by each of the following, who are collectively referred to herein as the "Reporting Persons": 1. MMI Investments, L.L.C., a Delaware limited liability company ("MMI"); 2. Millbrook Capital Management Inc., a New York corporation ("Millbrook"); and 3. Clay B. Lifflander, a Director and President of Millbrook. The principal business address for each of the Reporting Persons is RR1, Box 167D, Wing Road, Millbrook, New York 12545. MMI is a limited liability company organized under the Delaware Limited Liability Company Act. MMI is primarily engaged in the business of investing in securities. Millbrook's principal business is to manage investments in publicly traded securities as well as in private companies. Millbrook is the Manager of MMI, and as such, it has the sole power to vote and dispose of investment securities held by MMI. Millbrook's officers are Clay B. Lifflander, President; Jeffrey C. Gerstel, Chief Financial officer; and David H. Bova, Vice President (Messrs. Lifflander, Gerstel and Bova are referred to collectively herein as the "Millbrook Principals"). The Millbrook Principals are the directors of Millbrook. Each of the Millbrook Principals and Millbrook are also members of MMI. John S. Dyson, the sole stockholder of Millbrook has executed an irrevocable proxy giving Mr. Lifflander the power to vote the shares of capital stock of Millbrook that he owns. The principal occupation of each of the Millbrook Principals is in his capacity with Millbrook listed above. The principal business address for each of the Millbrook Principals is RR1, Box 167D, Wing Road, Millbrook, New York 12545, and each of them is a United States citizen.

Purpose of Transaction MMI acquired Shares because MMI believes that trading prices of the Shares do not adequately reflect the potential value of the Company's underlying business and assets. MMI intends to review its investment in the Company on a continuing basis and, depending upon any discussions with management of the Company, the price and availability of the Shares, subsequent developments affecting the Company, the Company's business and prospects, other investment and business opportunities available to MMI, general stock market and economic conditions, tax considerations and other factors considered relevant, may decide at any time to increase, or to decrease, the size of its or its affiliates' investments in the Company through open market or privately negotiated transactions.

The acquisition by any person of additional securities of the issuer, or the disposition of securities of the issuer; b. An extraordinary corporate transaction, such as a merger, reorganization or liquidation, involving the issuer or any of its subsidiaries; c. A sale or transfer of a material amount of assets of the issuer or any of its subsidiaries; d.

Any material change in the present capitalization or dividend policy of the issuer; f. Any other material change in the issuer's business or corporate structure; g. Changes in the issuer's charter, bylaws or instruments corresponding thereto or other actions which may impede the acquisition of control of the issuer by any person; h.

A class of equity securities of the issuer becoming eligible for termination of registration pursuant to Section 12(g)(4) of the Act; or j. Any action similar to any of those enumerated above.
