Source and Amount of Funds or Other Considerations - ------------------------------------------------------------ Item 3 is hereby amended and restated in its entirety with the following: The source of funds for the purchases of securities was the working capital of Blum LP's limited partnerships and investment advisory clients, the partnership for which Blum GP III LP serves as the sole general partner, the partnership for which Blum GP IV LP serves as the sole general partner, and the partnerships for which Saddlepoint GP serves as the general partner. Item 4. Purpose of Transaction - -------------------------------- There have been no changes to Item 4 since the initial Schedule 13D filed on December 21, 2006. Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer - --------------------------------------------- (a), (b) According to the Issuer's Form 10-Q filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on November 5, 2007, there were 91,072,533 shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding as of October 31, 2007. Based on such information, after taking into account the transactions described in Item 5(c) below, the Reporting Persons report beneficial ownership of the following shares of Common Stock: (i) 3,168,674 shares of Common Stock held by Blum LP and RCBA Inc. on behalf of the limited partnerships for which Blum LP serves as the general partner, which represents 3.5% of the outstanding shares of the Common Stock; (ii) 6,604,096 shares of the Common Stock held by Blum GP III which serves as general partner of Blum GP III LP which, in turn, serves as the general partner of Blum Strategic III, which represents 7.3% of the outstanding shares of the Common Stock; (iii) 1,000,000 shares of the Common Stock held by Blum GP IV which serves as general partner of Blum GP IV LP which, in turn, serves as the general partner of Blum Strategic IV, which represents 1.1% of the outstanding shares of the Common Stock; (iv) 464,900 shares of the Common Stock held by Saddlepoint GP on behalf of a partnership for which it serves as the general partner, which represents 0.5% of the outstanding shares of the Common Stock; and (v) 164,500 shares of the Common Stock that are legally owned by The Nuclear Decommissioning Trust of Dominion Nuclear Connecticut, Inc. ("Dominion Connecticut"), which represents 0.2% of the outstanding shares of the Common Stock and 164,500 shares of the Common Stock that are legally owned by Virginia Electric and Power Company Qualified Nuclear Decommissioning Trust ("Virginia Electric"), which represents 0.2% of the outstanding shares of the Common Stock (collectively, the "Investment Advisory Clients"), with respect to which Blum LP has voting and investment * * * * * CUSIP NO. 141665109 SCHEDULE 13D Page 13 of 15 power. Each Investment Advisory Client has entered into an investment management agreement with Blum LP, but neither Investment Advisory Client has any contract, arrangement or understanding with the other Investment Advisory Client, or any other Reporting Person, with respect to the acquisition, ownership, disposition or voting of any shares of the Common Stock. Each Investment Advisory Client disclaims membership in a group with any Reporting Person or with the other Investment Advisory Client, and each disclaims beneficial ownership of any shares beneficially owned by the Reporting Persons other than for their own account. Voting and investment power concerning the above shares are held solely by Blum LP, Blum GP III, Blum GP IV and Saddlepoint GP. The Reporting Persons therefore may be deemed to be members in a group, in which case the group would be deemed to have beneficial ownership of an aggregate of 11,566,670 shares of the Common Stock, which is 12.7% of the outstanding Common Stock. As the sole general partner of Blum LP, RCBA Inc. is deemed the beneficial owner of the securities over which Blum LP has voting and investment power. The filing of this Schedule shall not be construed as an admission that any of the shareholders, directors or executive officers of RCBA Inc. or the managing members and members of Blum GP III, Blum GP III LP, Blum GP IV, Blum GP IV LP and Saddlepoint GP, is, for any purpose, the beneficial owner of any of the securities that are beneficially owned by RCBA Inc., Blum GP III LP, Blum GP III, Blum GP IV LP, Blum GP IV or Saddlepoint GP. c) During the last 60 days, the Reporting Persons purchased the following shares of Common Stock in the open market: Entity Trade Date Shares Price/Share - ------- ---------- -------- ----------- Investment partnerships for 10-25-2007 86,500 33.7763 which Blum LP serves as the 11-06-2007 58,500 32.5028 general partner.
