(e)           The Reporting Person has not, during the last five years, been a party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative body of competent jurisdiction as a result of which he was or is subject to a judgment, decree or final order enjoining future violations of, or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to, federal or state securities laws or a finding of any violation with respect to such laws.
 
(f)           The Reporting Person is a United States citizen.
 
Item 3.  Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration
 
The Reporting Person used personal funds to acquire the shares of common stock subject to this Schedule 13D.
 
Item 4.  Purpose of Transaction
 
The Reporting Person is presently the Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer of the Issuer.  The Reporting Person intends to continue to participate in the management and operations of the Issuer as the Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer of the Issuer.  In addition to the use of personal funds to purchase of shares of common stock, the Reporting Person has acquired shares of common stock pursuant to the Issuer’s stock benefit plans.  The Reporting Person believes that the shares of common stock are an attractive investment and acquired the shares of common stock for investment purposes and not for the purpose of influencing the management of the Issuer or exercising control.  The Reporting Person does not intend to obtain control of the Issuer.  On January 29, 2013, Mr. Herndon’s beneficial ownership of the common stock increased to more than 5% of the outstanding shares of common stock as a result of repurchases of common stock by the Issuer that reduced the amount of common stock outstanding.
