Capitalized terms used and not defined in this Amendment No. 1 shall have the meanings set forth in the Schedule 13D. Except as specifically provided herein, this Amendment No. 1 does not modify any of the information previously reported in the Schedule 13D.

 

ITEM 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.

The total amount of funds used by SAVF to purchase the 359,552 Common Shares reported herein was $6,026,091 (excluding brokerage commissions). All of such funds were derived from capital contributions to SAVF.

The Shamrock Activist Value Fund acquired the 2,040,000 shares owned by it based on the Reporting Persons’ belief that the Common Shares represent an attractive investment opportunity.

The Reporting Persons (a) may determine from time to time to acquire additional securities of the Company in the open market, in private transactions or otherwise, and (b) may determine from time to time to sell some or all of the securities they now hold or hereafter acquire, in each case based on factors that such Reporting Persons may deem relevant, which may include, without limitation, (i) market and general economic conditions, (ii) the business affairs and financial conditions of the Company, (iii) the availability of securities at favorable prices, (iv) alternative investment opportunities available to the Reporting Persons, (v) new or increases or decreases in capital commitments from partners in the Shamrock Activist Value Fund, (vi) the capital requirements of the Shamrock Activist Value Fund, (vii) to honor


redemption requests from partners in SAVF, SAVF II or SAVF III, or (viii) other factors from time to time deemed to be relevant by such Reporting Persons.

Except as stated in response to this Item 4, the Reporting Persons have no current plans or proposals with respect to the Company or its securities of the types enumerated in paragraphs (a) through (j) of Item 4 to the form Schedule 13D promulgated under the Act.

 

ITEM 5. Interests in Securities of the Issuer.

(a), (b) SAVF, SAVF II and SAVF III are controlled by the General Partner. As a result, each of SAVF, SAVF II and SAVF III may be deemed members of a group and may be deemed to beneficially own for purposes of Section 13(d) the shares beneficially owned for such purposes by the others. Each of SAVF, SAVF II and SAVF III disclaims beneficial ownership of any Common Shares owned by the others.

SAVF is the owner of 1,995,664 Common Shares, which represents approximately 6.93% of the issued and outstanding Common Shares. SAVF II is the owner of 1,230 Common Shares, which represents approximately 0.004% of the issued and outstanding Common Shares. SAVF III is the owner of 43,106 Common Shares, which represents approximately 0.15% of the issued and outstanding Common Shares. Accordingly, the Shamrock Activist Value Fund owns 2,040,000 Common Shares, which represents approximately 7.08% of the issued and outstanding Common Shares.

Mr. Gold is a Managing Member of Shamrock Partners, which is the managing member of the General Partner, which in turn is the general partner of each of SAVF, SAVF II and SAVF III. As a result, Mr. Gold may be deemed to beneficially own for purposes of Section 13(d) the Common Shares that may be deemed to be beneficially owned by such entities. Mr. Gold disclaims beneficial ownership of any Common Shares that may be deemed to be beneficially owned by any of Shamrock Partners, the General Partner or the Shamrock Activist Value Fund.

Mr. Johnson is a Managing Director of SCA, a Vice President of Shamrock Partners, and the Portfolio Manager of the Shamrock Activist Value Fund, and as such has primary responsibility for portfolio investment decisions relating to the Shamrock Activist Value Fund. As a result, Mr. Johnson may be deemed to beneficially own for purposes of Section 13(d) the Common Shares that may be deemed to be beneficially owned by such entities. Mr. Johnson disclaims beneficial ownership of any Common Shares that may be deemed to be beneficially owned by any of Shamrock Partners, the General Partner or the Shamrock Activist Value Fund.

As the general partner of the Shamrock Activist Value Fund, the General Partner may be deemed to beneficially own the 2,040,000 Common Shares owned by the Shamrock Activist Value Fund, constituting approximately 7.08% of the issued and outstanding Common Shares. As the managing member of the General Partner, Shamrock Partners may be deemed to beneficially own the 2,040,000 Common Shares owned by the Shamrock Activist Value Fund, constituting approximately 7.08% of the issued and outstanding Common Shares. Shamrock Partners has sole voting and dispositive power with respect to the 2,040,000 Common Shares


owned by the Shamrock Activist Value Fund by virtue of its authority to vote and dispose of such Common Shares. Finally, each of the controlling persons of Shamrock Partners may be deemed to beneficially own the 2,040,000 Common Shares owned by the Shamrock Activist Value Fund, pursuant to Rule 13d-3 under the Act. Those controlling persons are identified in response to Item 2 of the Schedule 13D, as previously filed.

The percentages of ownership figures set forth above and in this response to Items 5(a) and 5(b) assumes that 28,800,921 Common Shares were outstanding as of November 4, 2008, as represented by the Company in its Definitive Proxy Statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on October 14, 2008.

(c) Since October 24, 2008 (the date of the Schedule 13D), SAVF, SAVF II and SAVF III acquired Common Shares on such dates, in such amounts and at such per share prices (excluding brokerage fees) as indicated on the Schedule of Transactions attached hereto as Exhibit 3 and incorporated herein by reference. All such transactions were effected in the open market on the NASDAQ Global Select Market.

Except as set forth above, none of the Reporting Persons beneficially owns any Common Shares or has effected any transactions in Common Shares since October 24, 2008 (the date of the Schedule 13D).

(d) Not applicable.
