On January 23, 2011, a representative of Q Funding III, L.P. and Q4 Funding, L.P. was quoted in the press as follows: 



We would like the new chairman to have a significant role in the process.  It serves all unitholders the best to have a truly independent chairman when selecting a new CEO.

Ultimately, the new chairman ought to be allowed to participate in the hunt for a new CEO.

We believe Dick Kinzel has done a good job of running the parks but his downfall has been his poor financial decisions.

Our focus right now is just trying to get the best corporate governance policies implemented at this company.  If we fail to accomplish that, then we can talk about the next steps.
