This Amendment No. 1 (Amendment) amends and restates the original Statement on Schedule
13D filed jointly on March 10, 2006 (the Original Schedule 13D) by (A)(i) Lion Fund, L.P., a
Delaware limited partnership, (the Lion Fund), (ii) Biglari Capital Corp., a Texas corporation

United States citizen (Mr. Greene; collectively with the Biglari Affiliates, Mr. Sedaghat and Mr.

beneficial ownership of any shares other than 34,500 shares held in street name on behalf of Mr.
Dash and the Client Shares. The filing of this statement shall not be deemed to be an admission
that the Reporting Person is, for the purposes of Section 13(d) or 13(g) of the Exchange Act, the

(d) and (e)
During the last five years, none of the Reporting Persons has been convicted in a criminal
proceeding (excluding traffic violations or similar misdemeanors) or been a party to a civil
proceeding of a judicial or administrative body of competent jurisdiction and as a result of such
proceeding was or is subject to a judgment, decree or final order enjoining future violations of,
or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to, federal or state securities laws or finding any
violation with respect to such laws.
Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.
Biglari Affiliates. The total cost for the Common Stock that the Lion Fund, BCC and Mr.
Biglari may be deemed to beneficially own is $1,599,372. The funds for the purchase of the Common
Stock beneficially owned by the Lion Fund, BCC and Mr. Biglari with respect to which they share
voting power came from the working capital of the Lion Fund. The Common Stock beneficially owned
solely by Mr. Biglari was acquired as a result of options being issued by the Issuer. No
consideration was exchanged for such options. No borrowed funds were used to purchase the Common
Stock, other than any borrowed funds used for working capital purposes (including certain leverage
arrangements) in the ordinary course of business.
Page 9 of 15 Pages
Mr. Sedaghat. Mr. Sedaghat has invested $1,379,385.70 in the Common Stock of the Issuer using
his personal funds.
Mr. Dash. Mr. Dash has invested $33,960 in 34,500 shares of the Common Stock using his
personal funds. Mr. Dash has acquired 540,003 shares of Common Stock on behalf of his clients
using funds maintained in the accounts of his respective clients.
Mr. Greene. Mr. Greene has invested $946,500 in 946,500 shares of the Common Stock using his
personal funds and funds of the Titus Greene & Co. Ltd. Partnership. No consideration was
exchanged for shares acquired as a result of options being issued by the Issuer.
Item 4. Purpose of Transaction.
Individually, each Reporting Person acquired and accumulated his shares over time as an
investment or, in the case of the client accounts advised by Mr. Dash, an investment on behalf of
such client accounts. The Reporting Persons do not have any current intention to acquire
additional shares of Common Stock or dispose of shares currently owned. However, the Reporting
Persons, or any of them, reserve the right to purchase additional shares of Common Stock from time
to time, either in the open market, in privately negotiated transactions or from the Issuer. Any
decision of the Reporting Persons to increase their holdings in Common Stock will depend, however,
on numerous factors, including, without limitation, the price of shares of Common Stock, the terms
and conditions related to their purchase and sale, the prospects and profitability of the Issuer,
other business and investment alternatives of the Reporting Persons and general economic and market
conditions. At any time, the Reporting Persons, or any of them, may determine to dispose of some
or all of their holdings of Common Stock depending on these and other considerations.
The Reporting Persons intend to nominate a slate of directors (the New Directors) to be
elected to the Board of Directors of the Issuer. The Reporting Persons also intend to reduce the
size of the Board of Directors as legally permitted. The Reporting Persons by a vote of
majority-in-interest among them, based on ownership of Common Stock, will decide the slate of New
Directors to be proposed for election and the proposed size of the Board of Directors. The
Reporting Persons may take any other action legally permitted in furtherance of these goals. To
accomplish these goals, the Reporting Persons intend to seek the proxy or written consent of a
legally sufficient number of shares of Common Stock to take the proposed corporate actions.
In the event that the Reporting Persons are successful in electing the New Directors, they
intend to seek reimbursement from the Issuer of their costs, including legal fees and related
expenses.
The consummation of any transaction could result in a change in control of the Issuer.
Except as set forth above, none of the Reporting Persons has any plans or proposals that
