direct the vote and disposition of 3,480,740 shares of Common Stock. Schottenfeld GP, Schottenfeld Holdings, and Koyote Group, each as the beneficial owner of shares held by Koyote Trading, may each indirectly control the vote and disposition of
543,200 shares of Common Stock. Koyote Trading holds 543,200 shares of Common Stock and may direct the vote and disposition of those shares. Winchester, as the general partner of Schottenfeld Associates, indirectly controls 2,806,140 shares of
Common Stock held by Schottenfeld Associates. Schottenfeld Associates holds 2,806,140 shares of Common Stock and may direct the vote and disposition of those shares. 143,200 of the shares of Common Stock held by Koyote Trading (the

) are controlled by other traders within Koyote Trading, but are subject to Mr. Schottenfelds veto.
ITEM 3.
Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.

The aggregate purchase price (excluding commissions) of the 3,480,740 shares of Common Stock held directly and indirectly by Mr. Schottenfeld reported
herein was approximately $5,398,628. Such shares of Common Stock were purchased with the working capital of Koyote Trading and Schottenfeld Associates in open market transactions through brokers, with the personal funds of Mr. Schottenfeld
