In April 2007, the Reporting Persons purchased 289,786 Ordinary Shares from

ITEM 4. PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION
The Reporting Persons have acquired the securities for investment purposes
in the ordinary course of their business of investing in securities for their
own accounts or for one or more accounts over which the Reporting Persons have
investment or voting power, respectively.
Each of the Reporting Persons may further purchase, trade, lend, vote,
dispose or otherwise deal in the securities at times and in such manner,
including in the market or in private transactions, as they deem advisable in
pursuit of such investment purposes to benefit from temporary changes in the
market price of such securities, including changes resulting from actual or
perceived developments in the Issuer's operations, business strategy or
prospects, management, or from the sale or merger of the Issuer, or its
subsidiaries. To evaluate such alternatives, the Reporting Persons will perform
ongoing analysis of the Issuer's operations, prospects, business development,
management, competitive and strategic position, capital structure, and
prevailing market conditions, as well as alternative investment opportunities,
and may periodically discuss such matters with the Issuer's management or
directors, other shareholders, industry analysts, investment and financing
professionals, existing or potential strategic partners, acquirors or
competitors, sources of credit or investment banking firms. Such factors,
analysis and discussions may result in the Reporting Persons' modifying their
ownership of the securities, exchanging information with the Issuer or other
persons pursuant to appropriate confidentiality or similar agreements and in
compliance with applicable law, or holding discussions with third parties or
with management in which the Reporting Persons may suggest or take a position
with respect to potential changes in the Issuer's operations, management, board
of directors, charter or by-laws, governance or capital structure as a means of
enhancing shareholder value. Such matters may relate to one or more of the
actions described in this Item 4, including, without limitation, the acquisition
of other businesses by the Issuer, disposing of certain assets of the Issuer,
election of one or more new directors, merger or sale of the Issuer, or adopting

proposals, and take such actions with respect to their investment in the Issuer,
including subject to applicable law, to (i) hold its securities as a passive
investor or as an active investor (whether or not as a member of a "group" with
other beneficial owners of securities or otherwise), (ii) acquire beneficial
ownership of additional securities in the open market, in privately negotiated
transactions or otherwise, (iii) dispose of all or part of its holdings of
securities, (iv) take other actions which could involve one or more of the types
of transactions or have one or more of the results described in Item 4 of this
Schedule 13D, or (v) change its intention with respect to any or all of the
matters referred to in this Item 4.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, except as discussed above, none of the
Reporting Persons have any plans or proposals to effect an extraordinary
corporate transaction, such as a merger, reorganization or liquidation involving
the Issuer or any of its subsidiaries, cause a sale or transfer of a material
amount of the assets of the Issuer or any of its subsidiaries, cause any
material change in the present capitalization or dividend policy of the Issuer,
cause any other material change in the Issuer's business or corporate structure,
cause any changes in the Issuer's charter or bylaws or other actions that may

securities of the Issuer to be delisted from a national securities exchange or
to cease to be authorized to be quoted on an inter-dealer quotation system of a
registered national securities association, cause a class of equity securities
of the Issuer to become eligible for termination of registration pursuant to
