    <remarks>This amended filing correctly reflects the number of Class B Common shares that are beneficially owned following the reported transaction on Table 1, column 5.  The original filing did not include 350 restricted shares that were acquired on May 1, 2006, which acquisition was reported on the Form 4 filed on May 3, 2006.</remarks>
