capital of such entities and accounts. The aggregate amount of funds used in
making the purchases reported on this Schedule 13D was $140,921,848.40.
Item 4. Purpose of Transaction.
----------------------
The Reporting Person acquired, on behalf of AJR, Cambrian Fund and the
Managed Accounts, and continues to hold, the Shares reported in this Schedule
13D for investment purposes. The Reporting Person intends to evaluate the
performance of the Shares as an investment in the ordinary course of business.
The Reporting Person pursues an investment objective that seeks capital
appreciation. In pursuing this investment objective, the Reporting Person
analyzes the operations, capital structure and markets of companies in which the
Reporting Person's clients invest, including the Issuer, on a continuous basis
through analysis of documentation and discussions with knowledgeable industry
and market observers and with representatives of such companies.
The Reporting Person will continuously assess the Issuer's business,
financial condition, results of operations and prospects, general economic
conditions, the securities markets in general and those for the Shares in
particular, other developments and other investment opportunities. Depending on
such assessments, the Reporting Person may acquire additional Shares or may
determine to sell or otherwise dispose of all or some of the Shares presently
held by AJR, Cambrian Fund, and the Managed Accounts in the open market or in
private transactions. Such actions will depend upon a variety of factors,
including, without limitation, current and anticipated future trading prices for
the Shares, the financial condition, results of operations and prospects of the
Issuer, alternative investment opportunities, general economic, financial market
and industry conditions and other factors that the Reporting Person may deem
material to its investment decision.
The Reporting Person will continue its active discussions with the
Issuer's management with respect to actions which might be taken by the
management of the Issuer to maximize shareholder value of the Issuer. In
addition, the Reporting Person may hold discussions with other parties who might
engage in shareholder value enhancing activities for the benefit of all of the
Issuer's shareholders. There can be no assurance that the Reporting Person will
take any of the actions described in the previous sentence.
<PAGE>
Except as set forth above, the Reporting Person has no present plans
or proposals which relate to or would result in any of the transactions required
to be described in Item 4 of Schedule 13D.
Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer.

14,000,000 Shares held by a wholly owned subsidiary) as of March 31, 2008.
(b) The Reporting Person does not directly own any Shares. The
Reporting Person has entered into an investment advisory agreement with each of
AJR, Cambrian Fund, and the Managed Accounts pursuant to which the Reporting
Person has investment authority with respect to the securities held by such
entities or in such accounts. Such power includes the power to dispose of and
the power to vote the Shares. By reason of the provisions of Rule 13d-3 of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, the Reporting Person is deemed to
be the beneficial owner of the Shares held by such entities and accounts.
Accordingly, the Reporting Person is deemed the beneficial owner of 6,500,000
