Item 5 of the Schedule 13D is hereby further amended by deleting the information (including the table provided as part of such information) set forth in Item 5 of Schedule 13D (Amendment No. 7) regarding beneficial ownership of the Issuer’s Common Shares by each of the Filing Persons, and replacing the deleted information with the following information:

On the date of this Schedule 13D (Amendment No. 8), the Filing Persons are the beneficial owners of, in the aggregate, 6,327,257 Common Shares, representing 13.1% of the Issuer’s outstanding Common Shares. The Filing Persons’ percentage beneficial ownership has been computed as a percentage of 48,386,376 Common Shares outstanding on August 15, 2014, as reported by the Issuer to the Filing Persons in response to an inquiry by them. The number of Common Shares and the percentage of the Issuer’s Common Shares beneficially owned by each Filing Person are as follows:

 

Name

  Shares Directly
Owned
   Percentage
Directly Owned
   Shares Owned
Beneficially
  

Percentage Owned

PABTL   5,449,732    11.3%   5,449,732    11.3%
FCMI   555,000    1.1%   6,004,7321   12.4%
Buckingham   250,000    0.5%   250,0002   0.5%2
Nancy Friedberg   50,825    0.1%   300,8253   0.6%3
Albert Friedberg   21,700    0.04%   6,298,1324   13.04
 
1Includes 5,449,732 shares owned directly by PABTL.
2Voting and dispositive power over the Common Shares held by Buckingham is exercisable by any of its trustees, acting individually. In practice, such authority is exercised solely by Mr. Friedberg and by Ms. Friedberg.
3Includes 21,700 shares held in a retirement account for the benefit of Ms. Friedberg, 29,125 shares owned directly by Ms. Friedberg, and 250,000 shares owned directly by Buckingham (see note 2).
4Includes 5,449,732 shares owned directly by PABTL, 555,000 shares owned directly by FCMI, 43,400 shares held in a retirement account (21,700 shares for the benefit of each of Mr. Friedberg and Ms. Friedberg), and 250,000 shares owned directly by Buckingham (see note 2). Excludes 29,125 shares owned directly by Ms. Friedberg, the wife of Mr. Friedberg, with respect to which Mr. Friedberg disclaims beneficial ownership.

All shares reported as beneficially owned by FCMI, PABTL, Nancy Friedberg, Albert D. Friedberg and Buckingham are presently outstanding. Mr. Friedberg, directly and through his control over FCMI shares held by members of his family and trusts for the benefit of members of his family, may be considered the sole beneficial owner of all of the Common Stock beneficially owned by FCMI. By virtue of his control of FCMI, Mr. Friedberg also may be deemed to possess voting and dispositive power over the shares owned directly by its wholly-owned subsidiary, PABTL. As trustees of Buckingham, each of Mr. Friedberg and Ms. Friedberg possesses voting and dispositive power over the Common Shares owned by Buckingham and may be deemed to share beneficial ownership of such Common Shares. Except for such beneficial ownership by Albert D. Friedberg and by Ms. Friedberg, none of the directors or officers of FCMI or PABTL, and none of the trustees of Buckingham, beneficially own any Common Shares.

Except as described in this Item 5, none of the Filing Persons, and none of their respective directors, officers or trustees has effected any transactions in the Issuer’s Common Shares in the 60 days preceding the filing of this Schedule 13D (Amendment No. 8).
