The principal business of Oaktree is providing investment advice and management services to institutional and individual investors.  The OCM Funds and Accounts generally invest in a diversified portfolio of convertible bond securities.  The investment decisions for each of the OCM Funds and Accounts are made on an individual basis based on the respective guidelines of each of the OCM Funds and Accounts.  The OCM Funds and Accounts collectively own $3,000,000 aggregate principal amount of 5.5% Senior Convertible Notes due 2010 which are currently convertible into 2,000,000 shares of the Issuer’s common stock.  Each of the OCM Funds and Accounts beneficially owns on an individual, as converted, basis less than 3.48 percent of the outstanding shares of the Issuer’s Common Stock.  Based on Oaktree’s relationship with the OCM Funds and Accounts, Oaktree may be deemed to beneficially own the shares of Common Stock into which the 5.5% Senior Convertible Notes due 2010 held by each of the OCM Funds and Accounts are convertible, although Oaktree has no material pecuniary interest in any of such bonds.  The last purchase of the bonds reported on this Schedule 13G were acquired in May 2006.
