As used herein, the term Working Capital includes income from the business operations of the
entity and funds committed to the entity plus sums borrowed from banks and brokerage firm margin
accounts to operate such business in general. None of the funds reported herein were borrowed or
otherwise obtained for the specific purpose of acquiring, handling, trading or voting the Shares.
Item 4. Purpose of Transaction.
The Reporting Persons have acquired the Shares reported herein for investment purposes.
Consistent with such purposes, the Reporting Persons have had, and may have in the future,
discussions with management of the Issuer and may make suggestions concerning the Issuers
operations, prospects, business and financial strategies, assets and liabilities, business and
financing alternatives and such other matters as the Reporting Persons may deem relevant to their
investments in the Shares. The Reporting Persons expect that they will, from time to time, review
their investment positions in the Issuer and may, depending on market and other conditions,
increase or decrease their investment positions.
Page 6 of 13
Whether the Reporting Persons purchase any additional Shares or dispose of any Shares, and the
amount and timing of any such transactions, will depend upon the Reporting Persons individual
continuing assessments of pertinent factors, including the availability of Shares for purchase at
particular price levels, the Issuers and the Reporting Persons businesses and prospects, other
business investment opportunities available to the Reporting Persons, economic conditions, stock
market conditions, money market conditions, the attitudes and actions of the Board of Directors and
management of the Issuer, the availability and nature of opportunities to dispose of the Reporting
Persons interests in the Issuer and other plans and requirements of the Reporting Persons.
Depending upon their individual assessments of these factors from time to time, the Reporting
Persons may change their present intentions as stated above, including determining to acquire
additional Shares (by means of open market or privately negotiated purchases) or to dispose of some
or all of the Shares held by them or under their control.
Except as stated above, none of the Reporting Persons has any plans or proposals of the types
referred to in clauses (a) through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D, as promulgated by the Securities
and Exchange Commission.
Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer.
(a) Percentage interest calculations for each of the Reporting Persons are based on the Issuer
having 56,627,930 shares of Common Stock outstanding as of February 19, 2008, as reported in the
Issuers Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 26, 2008.
(b) East Peak. The aggregate number of Shares that East Peak owns beneficially
pursuant to Rule 13d-3 of the Act, is 3,100,000 Shares, which constitutes approximately 5.2% of the
outstanding shares of Common Stock. East Peak, JGE and Mr. Edwards share the power to vote or to
direct the vote and to dispose or to direct the disposition of such Shares.
JGE Capital. Because of its position as the sole general partner of East Peak, JGE
Capital may, pursuant to Rule 13d-3 of the Act, be deemed to be beneficial owner of the 3,100,000
Shares beneficially held by East Peak; therefore, JGE Capital may be deemed to be the beneficial
owner of 5.2% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock.
Edwards. Because of his position as the control person of JGE Capital, Mr. Edwards
may, pursuant to Rule 13d-3 of the Act, be deemed to be beneficial owner of the 3,100,000 Shares
beneficially owned by JGE Capital; therefore, Mr. Edwards may be deemed to be the beneficial owner
of 5.2% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock.
(c) During the period beginning sixty (60) days prior to March 6, 2008 and ending on the date
of this filing, East Peak has purchased in open market transactions on the New York Stock Exchange
shares of Common Stock as set forth in Schedule I attached hereto.
Except as set forth in this paragraph (c), to the best of the knowledge of each of the
Reporting Persons, none of the persons named in response to this Item 5 has effected any
transaction in shares of the Common Stock during the period beginning sixty (60) days prior to
March 6, 2008 and ending on the date hereof.
(d) Each of the Reporting Persons affirms that no person other than such Reporting Person has
the right to receive or the power to direct the receipt of dividends from, or the proceeds from the
Page 7 of 13
sale of,
the shares owned by such Reporting Person.
(e) It is inapplicable for the purposes herein to state the date in which the Reporting
Persons ceased to be the owners of more than five percent (5%) of the outstanding shares of Common
Stock.
Item 6. Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships with respect to Securities of the
Issuer.
Except as set forth herein or in the Exhibits filed herewith, there are no other contracts,
arrangements, understandings or relationships of the type required to be disclosed in response to
Item 6 of Schedule 13D of the Act with respect to the Shares owned by the Reporting Persons.
