The following constitutes Amendment No. 3 to the Schedule 13D filed by the undersigned (“Amendment No. 3”). This Amendment No. 3 amends the Schedule 13D as specifically set forth herein.

 

Item 3.

SOURCE AND AMOUNT OF FUNDS OR OTHER CONSIDERATION.

 

Item 3 of the Schedule 13D is hereby and amended and restated in its entirety as follows:

 

The 1,551,521 Shares reported herein as beneficially owned by the Reporting Person were acquired at an aggregate purchase price of approximately $137 million.  Such Shares were acquired with investment funds in accounts managed by JANA and margin borrowings described in the following sentence. Such Shares are held by the investment funds managed by JANA in commingled margin accounts, which may extend margin credit to JANA from time to time, subject to applicable federal margin regulations, stock exchange rules and credit policies. In such instances, the positions held in the margin accounts are pledged as collateral security for the repayment of debit balances in the account. The margin accounts bear interest at a rate based upon the broker’s call rate from time to time in effect. Because other securities are held in the margin accounts, it is not possible to determine the amounts, if any, of margin used to purchase the Shares reported herein.

 

Item 4.

PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION.

 

Item 4 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented as follows:

 

On January 4, 2019, the Issuer and JANA entered into an amendment to the Cooperation Agreement (the “Cooperation Agreement Amendment”) pursuant to which the deadline to appoint the New Independent Directors was extended to March 15, 2019.  The foregoing summary of the Cooperation Agreement Amendment is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Cooperation Agreement Amendment, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit D to this Amendment No. 3 by reference to Exhibit 10.1 of the Issuer's Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on January 4, 2019 (the “January 4, 2019 Form 8-K”).

 

Item 5.

INTEREST IN SECURITIES OF THE COMPANY.

 

Items 5(a)-(c) of the Schedule 13D are hereby and amended and restated in their entirety as follows:

 

(a) The aggregate percentage of Shares reported to be beneficially owned by the Reporting Person is based upon 25,742,587 Shares outstanding as of November 16, 2018, as reported in the Issuer’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2018 filed with the SEC on November 21, 2018.

 

As of the close of business on January 3, 2019, JANA may be deemed to beneficially own 1,551,521 Shares, representing approximately 6.0% of the Shares outstanding.

 

(b) JANA has sole voting and dispositive power over 1,551,521 Shares, which power is exercised by the Principal.

 

(c) Information concerning transactions in the Shares effected by the Reporting Person during the past sixty days is set forth in Exhibit E hereto and is incorporated herein by reference.  All of the transactions in the Shares listed therein were effected in the open market through various brokerage entities.
