Any decision of Mr. Loewenbaum either to purchase additional securities or to dispose of any securities will take into account various factors.
ITEM 5. INTEREST IN SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER.
     (a), (b) As of the date of the filing of this statement, Mr. Loewenbaum beneficially owns 1,443,586 shares of Common Stock, which is approximately 6.5% of the shares of Common Stock outstanding at July 31, 2007.
