Item 4. Purpose of Transaction.

Item 4 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended by the addition of the following:
 
    Effective as of May 16, 2007, Terrier Partners has determined to withdraw from the Group and terminate the obligations of the Terrier Reporting Persons to vote their Common Shares pursuant to the terms of the voting agreement dated April 2, 2007 (the "Voting Agreement") by and among each of the members of the Group.

Other than as set forth in this Item 4, no Reporting Persons have any current plans, proposals or negotiations that relate to or would result in any of the matters referred to in paragraphs (a) through (j) of Item 4 of the Schedule 13D. The Reporting Persons intend to review their investment in the Issuer on a continuing basis, and to the extent permitted by law, and may seek to engage in discussions with other stockholders and/or with management and the Board of Directors of the Issuer concerning the business, operations or future plans of the Issuer. Depending on various factors including, without limitation, the Issuer's financial position, the price levels of the Common Shares, conditions in the securities markets and general economic and industry conditions, the Reporting Persons may, subject to any obligations set forth in the Voting Agreement,  in the future take such actions with respect to their investment in the Issuer as they deem appropriate including, without limitation, purchasing additional Common Shares, engaging in short selling of or any hedging or similar transaction with respect to the Common Shares, taking any other action with respect to the Issuer or any of its securities in any manner permitted by law or changing their intention with respect to any and all matters referred to in paragraph (a) through (j) of Item 4 of the Schedule 13D.
 
Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer.
 
    As of May 16, 2007, each of the Wynnefield Reporting Persons and the G&H Reporting Persons may be deemed to beneficially own collectively an aggregate of 2,547,409 of the Common Shares, representing 27.5% of the outstanding Common Shares (the percentage of shares owned being based upon 9,275,431 Common Shares outstanding as of February 9, 2007, as set forth in the Issuer's most recent report on Form 10-Q for the period ended December 31, 2006, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 13, 2007). The Wynnefield Reporting Persons and the G&H Reporting Persons each expressly disclaims beneficial ownership for all purposes of the Common Shares held by each of the other Reporting Persons. Each of the Wynnefield Reporting Persons and the G&H Reporting Persons disclaims any pecuniary interest in the Common Shares beneficially owned by each of the other Reporting Persons.
