(1) Under "VI. Liabilities," I have added information concerning partial limited guarantees that I have executed in past years with respect to three commercial loans. The first was a loan in 2001 for the construction of a commercial building. The second was for the second building on the same site in 2003, and the third was for the third building on the same site in I had not realized that guarantees needed to be listed as liabilities, but was informed by your office that I need to do so. Because this was not listed on prior Disclosure Reports, please consider this as amending those Reports for the years to which they apply. (2) The asset reported in Part VII, page 5, line 8, from my 2005 Financial Disclosure Report should have been marked as follows: Column D(l) Sell, D(2) 11117, D(3) J. The partnership was sold at a loss. Please let me know if there are any questions you or the Committee may have.
