This Amendment No. 1 to Schedule 13D amends the Schedule 13D initially filed on March 19, 2007 (collectively, with all amendments thereto, the “Schedule 13D”).

 

Item 3. Source And Amount Of Funds And Other Consideration

Item 3 of the Schedule 13D is amended and supplemented by the following:

The net investment cost (including commissions) for the Shares acquired by each of the Funds and the Managed Accounts since the filing of the prior Schedule 13D is set forth below:

Entity

Shares Acquired

Approximate Net Investment Cost

Noonday Fund

33,600

$1,483,753

FCP

238,600

$10,535,034

FCIP

55,600

$2,457,230

FCIP II

12,100

$534,396

FCIP III

6,300

$278,372

Tinicum

7,700

$340,051

FCOI II

324,100

The consideration for such acquisitions was obtained as follows: (i) with respect to the Noonday Fund, FCP, Tinicum and FCOI II, from working capital and/or from borrowings pursuant to margin accounts maintained in the ordinary course of business by the Noonday Fund, FCP, Tinicum and FCOI II at Goldman, Sachs & Co.; (ii) with respect to FCIP, FCIP II and FCIP III, from working capital; and (iii) with respect to the Managed Accounts, from the working capital of the Managed Accounts and/or from borrowings pursuant to margin accounts maintained in the ordinary course of business by some of the Managed Accounts at Goldman, Sachs & Co. The Noonday Fund, FCP, Tinicum, FCOI II and some of the Managed Accounts hold certain securities in their respective margin accounts at Goldman, Sachs & Co., and the accounts may from time to time have debit balances. It is not possible to determine the amount of borrowings, if any, used to acquire the Shares.
