Identity and Background The D3 Funds, which are identified in response to Item 4, are Washington State limited partnerships (except for the DIII Offshore Fund, L.P., which is a Bahamian limited partnership). The D3 Funds are filing this Amendment, together with: Nierenberg Investment Management Company, Inc., a Washington State corporation, which is the general partner of all of the D3 Funds except the DIII Offshore Fund, L.P.; and Nierenberg Investment Management Offshore, Inc., a Bahamian corporation, which is the general partner of the DIII Offshore Fund, L.P., and is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Nierenberg Investment Management Company, Inc. Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration Reference is made to Item 4 of this Amendment, which is incorporated by reference in response to this Item. Item 4. Purpose of Transaction Effective June 30, 2006, four of the D3 Funds, namely (i) the D3 Family Fund, L.P., (ii) the D3 Bulldog Fund, L.P., (iii) the D3 Children's Fund, L.P., and (iv) the D3 Family Retirement Fund, L.P., (collectively the "Participating Funds") effected a consolidation of their respective assets and operations (the "Consolidation"). The Consolidation was implemented through a series of simultaneous transactions approved by the constituent partners of each of the Participating Funds, including the following: (i) approximately 80% of the fair market value of the assets of D3 Family Fund were transferred and contributed to D3 Bulldog Fund; (ii) all of the assets of D3 Children's Fund were transferred and contributed in separate parts to each of D3 Bulldog Fund and D3 Family Fund; and (iii) all of the assets of D3 Retirement Fund were transferred and contributed in separate parts to each of D3 Bulldog Fund and D3 Family Fund. To the extent the transferred and contributed assets of the Participating Funds consisted of any shares of the class previously reported on the Schedule 13D as being beneficially owned by any such Participating Fund (the "Shares"), for all purposes and transactions involved in the Consolidation the Shares were valued at fair market value as represented by the (closing price) as at June 30, 2006 and treated as having been re-allocated internally amongst the Participating Funds at the fair market value. As a result of the Consolidation, each of D3 Children's Fund and D3 Retirement Fund no longer beneficially owns any Shares, and correspondingly, the number of Shares owned beneficially by each of D3 Family Fund and D3 Bulldog Fund has increased. After giving effect to the Consolidation, the aggregate beneficial ownership of Shares by the Participating Funds and their respective general partners has not changed. Further, the Consolidation did not include or involve the fifth fund, DIII Offshore Fund, L.P. Accordingly, after giving effect to the Consolidation, the aggregate beneficial ownership of Shares on the part of all filing persons as a group has not changed. 9 Also see Item 5 of this Amendment. Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer. (a, b) The Reporting Persons, in the aggregate, beneficially own 3,508,914 common shares, constituting approximately 18.9% of the outstanding Shares. (c) As a result of the Consolidation, including any internal re-allocation of Shares amongst the Participating Funds as described in Item 4 of this Amendment (which is incorporated by reference in response to this Item 5), the following transfers of Shares among the D3 Family Funds may be deemed to have occurred, the transaction date of all such transfers being June 30, 2006. D3 Children's Fund: transferred 132,161 Shares, constituting all of its Shares D3 Retirement Fund: transferred 551,940 Shares, constituting all of its Shares D3 Family Fund: number of Shares decreased from 1,686,422 to 689,571 representing approximately 3.7% of the outstanding Shares D3 Bulldog Fund: number of Shares increased from 312,233 to 1,993,185 representing approximately 10.7% of the outstanding Shares (d) On June 30, 2006, D3 Children's Fund and D3 Retirement Fund ceased to be the direct beneficial owners of any Shares and ceased to be members of a filing group with the other three Funds. Item 6. Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships with the Issuer Exhibit 1 to this Amendment is hereby incorporated by reference in response to this item. Also see Item 4 of this Amendment. Item 7. Material to be filed as Exhibits Exhibit 1 to this Amendment is the form of document used to effect the transfer of (among other assets) Shares pursuant to the consolidation. Exhibit 2 to this Amendment is the joint filing agreement pursuant to which all of the filing persons have authorized the filing of this Amendment as a group. 10 SIGNATURE After reasonable inquiry and to the best of my knowledge and belief, each of the undersigned certifies that the information set forth in the Statement is true, complete and correct.
