Item 4. Ownership.
Reference is hereby made to Items 5-9 and 11 of pages 2, 3, 4
and 5 of this Schedule, which Items are incorporated by reference
herein.
The securities to which this Schedule relates (the
"Securities") are owned by certain investment limited partnerships,
including Navigator, and other client accounts, for which Steelhead
serves as general partner and/or investment manager. Steelhead, as
Navigator's and those other investment limited partnerships' and other
client accounts' general partner and/or investment manager, and
J. Michael Johnston and Brian K. Klein, as the member-managers and
owners of Steelhead, may therefore be deemed to beneficially own
Securities owned by Navigator and such other investment limited
partnerships and client accounts for the purposes of Rule 13d-3 of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Act") insofar as they
may be deemed to have the power to direct the voting or disposition
of those Securities.
Neither the filing of this Schedule nor any of its contents
shall be deemed to constitute an admission that Steelhead, Mr. Johnston
or Mr. Klein is, for any other purpose, the beneficial owner of any of
the Securities, and each of Steelhead, Mr. Johnston and Mr. Klein
disclaims beneficial ownership as to the Securities, except to the
extent of his or its pecuniary interests therein.
Under the definition of "beneficial ownership" in Rule 13d-3
under the Act, it is also possible that the individual general partners,
executive officers, and members of the foregoing entities might be
deemed the "beneficial owners" of some or all of the Securities insofar
as they may be deemed to share the power to direct the voting or
disposition of the Securities. Neither the filing of this Schedule nor
any of its contents shall be deemed to constitute an admission that any
of such individuals is, for any purpose, the beneficial owner of any of
the Securities, and such beneficial ownership is expressly disclaimed.
CUSIP 16117M107 SCHEDULE 13G Page 8 of 11
The calculation of percentage of beneficial ownership in
item 11 of pages 2-5 was derived from the Issuer's Quarterly Report on
Form 10-Q filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on August 2,
2007, in which the Issuer stated that the number of shares of Class A
Common Stock outstanding as of June 30, 2007 was 400,398,208.
Item 5. Ownership of Five Percent or Less of a Class.
Not applicable.
Item 6. Ownership of More Than Five Percent on Behalf of Another Person.
Steelhead serves as general partner and/or investment
manager to certain investment limited partnerships, including Navigator,
and other client accounts that have the right to receive or the power to
direct the receipt of, dividends from, or the proceeds from the sale of,
the Securities. Other than as reported in this Schedule, no investment
limited partnership's or other client accounts' holdings exceed five
percent of the Issuer's Series A Common Stock.
Item 7. Identification and Classification of the Subsidiary Which
Acquired the Security Being Reported on by the Parent
Holding Company.
Not applicable.
Item 8. Identification and Classification of Members of the Group.
Not applicable.
Item 9. Notice of Dissolution of Group.
Not applicable.
Item 10. Certifications.
