DHI is a Delaware corporation primarily engaged in providing investment banking services to companies located in the northwestern United States. DHI’s principal executive offices are located at 701 Fifth Avenue, Suite 3800, Seattle, Washington 98104. See Exhibit 7.1 for a schedule of DHI’s directors and officers.

Colin M. Hutchinson is a Principal with DHI and is a citizen of the United States of America. Colin M. Hutchinson disclaims beneficial ownership of all shares other than those owned directly by himself except to the extent of his pecuniary interest in DHI.

Together the aforesaid reporting persons are deemed to be the beneficial owners of an aggregate of 237,683 shares of the Common Stock of the Issuer (the “Shares”).

The Joint Filing Agreement attached to the Original Filing under Exhibit 7.2 has been terminated.

During the last five years, neither any person filing this report nor any member of any such person, as the case may be, has (a) been convicted in a criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations or similar misdemeanors) or (b) been a party to a judicial or administrative proceeding (except for matters that were dismissed without sanction or settlement) that resulted in a

judgment, decree or final order enjoining future violations of, prohibiting or mandating activities subject to, federal or state securities laws or finding any violations of any such laws.

Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.

The information contained in Item 3 of the First Amendment is hereby amended and restated as follows:

Funds for the purchase of the Shares were derived from available capital of the Holders. A total of $1,548,111.82 was paid to acquire 237,683 shares of the Issuer.

Item 4. Purpose of Transaction.

The information contained in Item 4 of the First Amendment is hereby amended and restated as follows:

The securities covered by this Amendment No. 3 were acquired by each of the Holders for investment purposes.

The Holders have entered into an agreement with the Company in which the Holders and the Company agreed to the following:

	1.		The Company will nominate John D. Delafield as a Class II director for election at the 2007 annual meeting, with a term expiring at the 2008 annual meeting, and will use its officers and directors to solicit proxies and vote such proxies for Mr. Delafield.

	2.		The Company will submit a resolution to the shareholders at the 2007 annual meeting to amend its articles of incorporation to remove the requirement that a business combination be approved by at least 2/3 of outstanding common stock unless such transaction has been approved by a majority of continuing directors.

	3.		Until December 31, 2007, Holders will support and vote their shares for the slate of directors nominated by the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”), and will not (i) propose any candidates for election to the Board or propose any other business at an annual meeting, (ii) present any proposals for inclusion in a Company proxy statement or conduct any proxy solicitations, or (iii) take any action with respect to the Company that involves making a public announcement or that could require the Company to make a public announcement regarding such action.

	4.		As soon as practicable following the execution of this agreement, the Company will issue a press release describing the terms of this agreement and the Holders will file an amendment to its Schedule 13D reporting the entry into this agreement and amending applicable items to conform to its obligations under this agreement.

	5.		The Holders covenant not to sue and fully release and discharge the Company and its directors and officers from any claims arising in respect of or in connection with the nomination and election of directors at the 2007 annual meeting and the other proposals contained in the notice related to the 2007 annual meeting.

The holders represent and warrant that the execution, delivery and performance of the agreement by each member of Holders has been duly and validly authorized and constitutes a valid and binding obligation and agreement of each such Holder.

The Holders or any one of them, from time to time intend to review their investment in the Issuer on the basis of various factors, including the Issuer’s business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects, general economic and industry conditions, the securities markets in general and those for the Issuer’s stock in particular, as well as other developments and other investment opportunities. Based upon such review, the Holders will take such actions in the future as the Holders, or any one of them, may deem appropriate in light of the circumstances existing from time to time. If any such Holder believes that further investment in the Issuer is attractive, whether because of the market price of the Issuer’s stock or otherwise, such Holder may acquire shares of Common Stock or other securities of the Issuer either in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions. Similarly, depending on market and other factors, a Holder may determine to dispose of some or all of the shares of Common Stock currently owned by such Holder or otherwise acquired by such Holders either in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions.

Except as otherwise disclosed in this Item 4, none of the Holders are a party to any agreements, beneficially or otherwise, that would be related to or would result in any of the matters described in Items 4(a)-(j) of Schedule 13D; however, as part of the ongoing evaluation of this investment and investment alternatives, including in connection with the possible acquisition of the Issuer or shares of the Issuer, the Holders, or any one of the them, may consider such matters and, subject to applicable law, may formulate a plan with respect to such matters, and, from time to time, may hold discussions with or make formal proposals to management or the board of directors of the Issuer, or other third parties regarding such matters.

The Holders, or any one of them, reserve the right to determine in the future whether to change the purpose or purposes described above or whether to adopt plans or proposals of the type specified above.

Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer.

The information contained in Item 5 of the First Amendment is hereby amended and restated as follows:

(a) The aggregate number of shares of Common Stock to which this Schedule 13D relates is 237,683 shares, representing 5.91% of the 4,023,530 shares outstanding as reported in the Company’s most recent Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended October 1, 2006.
