(the "Issuer").  Unless otherwise indicated, all defined terms used herein shall have the same meanings as those set forth in the Schedule 13D.
      
ITEM 4.  PURPOSE OF THE TRANSACTION.

Item 4 is amended by adding at the end thereof the following:

As required by the Issuer's advance-notice bylaw, the Reporting Person (on behalf of R2) is notifying the Issuer of its intention to nominate two candidates for election to the board of directors.

As the Reporting Person has previously disclosed, it believes that the time has come to sell the Issuer. In that connection, the Reporting Person continues to support the Issuer's Strategic Review Committee in its efforts to achieve this goal. The Reporting Person believes that the Issuer has valuable assets and attributes, and would make an ideal acquisition for many firms.

The Reporting Person will be disappointed, however, if a transaction cannot be executed at an acceptable price by the Strategic Review Committee's announced target date of January 31, 2008. In that event, the Reporting Person will hold responsible the board that has led the Issuer for the past four years. If a sale cannot be executed by this board-imposed deadline, the Reporting Person consequently believes that it will be in the best interests of the Issuer and its shareholders for a new group of directors to oversee the Issuer's growth and continued operation as a stand-alone company.

According to the Issuer's public filings, its advance-notice bylaw precludes direct shareholder nominations of directors after December 29, 2007. Given the urgent need for a new board in the event of an unsuccessful sale process, the Reporting Person is therefore delivering the required notice to the Issuer of its intention to nominate at the 2008 annual meeting of stockholders two candidates for election to the board of directors. The nominees are J. Coley Clark and Richard L. Hunter. A biographical summary for each nominee is provided below.

The nominees selected are proven business leaders with a successful track record of delivering shareholder value.  These qualified independent directors will bring not only their experience as nationally recognized experts in supply chain management and software business leadership, but will bring the new energy to the board required to meet fresh challenges and position the Issuer for future opportunities.

The Reporting Person is submitting its slate of two nominees reluctantly and only because it has not received assurance from the Issuer that Messrs. Clark and Hunter will be included in the Issuer's slate of directors. The Reporting Person intends that its nominees would replace Michael McGrath and Harvey Cash.

Biographical information for these nominees follows:
