Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Considerations ------------------------------------------------------------ There have been no changes to Item 3 since the Schedule 13D Amendment filed on December 19, 2007. Item 4. Purpose of Transaction -------------------------------- Item 4 is hereby amended and restated in its entirety, as follows: The Reporting Persons acquired the Common Stock for investment purposes in the ordinary course of business. The Reporting Persons intend to review their investment in the Issuer continuously. Depending on their review and evaluation of the business and prospects of the Issuer, and subject to the terms of the various advisory agreements and applicable securities laws, the price level of the Common Stock, or such other factors as they may deem relevant, the Reporting Persons may acquire additional Common Stock on the open market, in privately negotiated transactions or otherwise; may sell or dispose of all or any part of their Common Stock pursuant to Rule 144, in privately negotiated transactions, in sales registered or exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933 or otherwise; may distribute shares to various of their partners, members, employees or business associates; or may engage in any combination of the foregoing. Subject to applicable law, the Reporting Persons may enter into derivative transactions, hedging transactions or alternative structures with respect to the Common Stock. Any acquisitions, sales, dispositions, distributions or other transactions may be announced or consummated at any time without additional prior notice and prior to any further amendment to this Statement. Any alternative that the Reporting Persons may pursue will depend upon a variety of factors, including without limitation, current and anticipated future trading prices of the Common Stock, the financial condition, results of operations and prospects of the Issuer and general economic, financial market and industry conditions, other investment and business opportunities available to, or liquidity requirements of, the Reporting Persons, general stock market and economic conditions, tax considerations and other factors. * * * * * CUSIP NO. 141665109 SCHEDULE 13D Page 15 of 17 Also, in connection with the Reporting Persons' investment in the Issuer, the Reporting Persons intend to engage in communications with, directly or through intermediaries, one or more existing or prospective shareholders of the Issuer, one or more officers of the Issuer, one or more members of the board of directors of the Issuer, and other representatives of the Issuer. In connection with these activities, the Reporting Persons may engage in communications with sources of credit and/or other financing sources, industry participants, applicable governmental agencies, and/or other interested parties regarding the Issuer, with respect to the Issuer's operations and strategic, financial, governance and other matters. The Reporting Persons may discuss ideas that, if effected, may result in any of the following: the acquisition by persons of additional Common Stock of the Issuer, an extraordinary corporate transaction involving the Issuer, and/or changes in the board of directors or management of the Issuer. The Reporting Persons may also propose changes in the Issuer's operations, governance or capitalization; exchange information with the Issuer pursuant to confidentiality or similar agreements; or take or propose to take, alone or in conjunction with other parties, other actions intended to increase or decrease the Reporting Persons' investment in the Issuer or increase the value of their investment in the Issuer, which could include or result in one or more of the matters referred to in paragraphs (a) through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D. Except to the extent the foregoing may be deemed a plan or proposal, none of the Reporting Persons has any current plans or proposals which relate to, or could result in, any of the matters referred to in paragraphs (a) through (j), inclusive, of the instructions to Item 4 of Schedule 13D; provided that the Reporting Persons may, at any time and from time to time, review or reconsider their position and/or change their purpose and/or formulate plans or proposals with respect thereto. Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer --------------------------------------------- (a), (b) According to the Issuer's Form 10K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 27, 2012, there were 67,542,629 shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding as of January 31, 2012. 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) 2,156,794 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 3.2% 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 9.8% of the outstanding shares of the Common Stock; and (iii) 6,666,593 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 9.9% of the outstanding shares of the Common Stock. * * * * * CUSIP NO. 141665109 SCHEDULE 13D Page 16 of 17 Voting and investment power concerning the above shares are held solely by Blum LP, Blum GP III and Blum GP IV. 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 15,427,483 shares of the Common Stock, which is 22.8% 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 and Blum GP IV LP, 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 and Blum GP IV. (c) This filing is being made to update the ownership percentage of the Reporting Persons due to a change in the number of shares outstanding of the Issuer. On December 30, 2011, the Reporting Persons distributed, on a pro rata basis, 2,804 shares of Common Stock to a limited partner in one of the limited partnerships for which Blum LP serves as the general partner and 520,312 shares of Common Stock to several limited partners in a liquidating distribution in one of the limited partnerships for which Blum LP serves as the general partner. (d) Not applicable. (e) Not applicable. Item 6. Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships with Respect to Securities of the Issuer ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- There have been no changes to Item 6 since the Schedule 13D Amendment filed on November 19, 2008.
