The following constitutes Amendment No. 7 to the Schedule 13D filed by the undersigned (the “Amendment No. 7”).  This Amendment No. 7 amends the Schedule 13D as specifically set forth herein.
 
Item 4.                      Purpose of the Transaction.
 
Item 4 is hereby amended to add the following:
 
On June 12, 2013, Starboard Value and Opportunity Master Fund Ltd (“Starboard”) filed a complaint pursuant to Section 211 of the Delaware General Corporation Law (“Delaware Law”) requesting the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware (the “Court of Chancery”) to compel the Issuer to promptly hold its 2013 annual meeting of stockholders (the “Annual Meeting”) for the election of directors.  The Issuer has not held such an annual meeting of the stockholders since April 26, 2012, or for more than thirteen (13) months.  Historically, the Issuer has held its annual meeting during the latter half of April for at least the past six years.  Consistent with Delaware Law, if no date has been designated by a corporation for a period of thirteen (13) months after its last annual meeting or the last action by written consent to elect directors in lieu of an annual meeting, the Court of Chancery may summarily order a meeting to be held upon the application of any stockholder.
 
The Issuer has announced its plans to merge with OfficeMax Inc. (“OfficeMax”) and has scheduled a special meeting of the stockholders for July 10, 2013, for the sole purpose of voting on the proposed merger (the “OfficeMax Merger”).  The Issuer has stated that provided stockholder approval is obtained it only expects to complete the OfficeMax Merger by the end of calendar year 2013. The OfficeMax Merger does not provide a valid reason for the Issuer to deprive stockholders of their right to meet annually to elect directors.  Notably, OfficeMax held its annual meeting on April 29, 2013, consistent with its previous years’ annual meeting dates.
 
While Starboard continues to be in favor of the OfficeMax Merger, it still feels it is critically important to substantially improve the Board as soon as possible to ensure that the Issuer is fully prepared to succeed as a stand-alone entity should the OfficeMax Merger not close for any reason and be a stronger merger partner for the combined company should the OfficeMax Merger be consummated. Starboard has filed preliminary proxy materials in connection with a proposed consent solicitation seeking to remove certain incumbent directors and elect to the Board a number of individuals with significant retail operating experience and is continuing to pursue this course of action while it seeks to compel the Annual Meeting.
