Item 2. Identity and Background.
This Schedule 13D is filed jointly on behalf of Bridge Partners,

("Gildea"), pursuant to Rule 13d-1(f)(1) under the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.
Carson Street Partners is the sole general partner of Bridge
Partners and has the power to vote and dispose of the 5,639,400
shares of Common Stock (the "Common Shares") and 11,878,800
shares of Series A Convertible Redeemable

Company (the "Preferred Shares" and, together with the Common
Shares, the "Shares") held by Bridge Partners. Gildea is the
Chairman of the Board of Directors, Chief Executive Officer,
President and controlling stockholder of Carson Street Partners.
As a result, Gildea and Carson Street Partners may be deemed to
be the indirect beneficial owners of the Shares held by Bridge
Partners. Bridge Partners' principal business is to invest in
shares of capital stock of the Company [and other issuers].
Carson Street Partners' principal business is the management of

business address and the principal office address of Bridge
Partners, Carson Street Partners and Gildea is 115 East Putnam
Avenue, Greenwich, Connecticut 06830.
The name, business address, citizenship and present principal
occupation of each director and executive officer of Carson

None of Bridge Partners, Carson Street Partners, Gildea or, to
the best knowledge of such parties, any of the persons listed on
Schedule I hereto, has, during the last five years, (i) been

no determination has been made by Bridge Partners to acquire
additional shares of capital stock of the Company or to dispose

deemed to be the indirect beneficial owner of the 17,518,200
Shares. As the Chairman of the Board of Directors, Chief
Executive Officer and controlling stockholder of Carson Street

Shares represent approximately 29.9% (computed in accordance
with rule 13d-3(d)(1) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934)
of the 58,642,546 shares of Common Stock outstanding, based upon
the Company's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter

in the open market of 5,000 shares of Series A Convertible
Redeemable Preferred Stock by Mr. O'Donnell (see Schedule I) on
