This Amendment No. 2 amends the Schedule 13D (the “Original 13D”) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on October 5, 2009 and as amended on October 29, 2009. Unless otherwise stated herein, the Original 13D, as previously amended, remains in full force and effect. Terms used therein and not defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed thereto in the Original 13D.
 
ITEM 2.                      IDENTITY AND BACKGROUND.
 
Item 2(a) is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:
 
(a)  The undersigned hereby file this Schedule 13D Statement on behalf of SPO Partners II, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (“SPO”), SPO Advisory Partners, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (“SPO Advisory Partners”), San Francisco Partners, L.P., a California limited partnership (“SFP”), SF Advisory Partners, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (“SF Advisory Partners”), SPO Advisory Corp., a Delaware corporation (“SPO Advisory Corp.”), John H. Scully (“JHS”), Edward H. McDermott (“EHM”) and Phoebe Snow Foundation, Inc., a California corporation (“PSF”). SPO, SPO Advisory Partners, SFP, SF Advisory Partners, SPO Advisory Corp., JHS, EHM and PSF are sometimes hereinafter referred to as the “Reporting Persons.” The Reporting Persons are making this single, joint filing because they may be deemed to constitute a “group” within the meaning of Section 13(d)(3) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Act”), although neither the fact of this filing nor anything contained herein shall be deemed to be an admission by the Reporting Persons that a group exists.
 
The Original 13D, as amended, listed William E. Oberndorf (“WEO”) and William J. Patterson (“WJP”) as “Reporting Persons.” As of March 31, 2012, WEO was no longer a controlling person of SPO Advisory Corp. As a result, WEO is no longer a “Reporting Person” for all purposes under this Amendment and the Original 13D. WJP passed away on September 24, 2010. As a result, WJP is no longer a “Reporting Person” for all purposes under this Amendment and the Original 13D.
 
All references to WEO and WJP in Item 2(b)-(c) are hereby deleted in their entirety.
 
Item 2(b)-(c) is hereby amended and supplemented by adding the following paragraph at the end thereof:
