Unless otherwise indicated, all capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the same meaning ascribed to them in the Schedule 13D.

Item 1.

Security and Issuer

There are no changes to the Item 1 information previously filed.

 

Item 2.

Identity and Background

There are no changes to the Item 2 information previously filed.

 

Item 3.

Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration

Item 3 is hereby amended and supplemented by adding the following paragraphs thereto:

On December 12, 2019, Longfellow acquired 326,000 of the Issuers Series A Preferred Shares and 7,363,053 of the Issuers common shares from Nokomis Capital Master Fund, L.P. for a total cash purchase price of $20,640,835.90. The shares were purchased by Longfellow using cash on hand, which includes cash obtained from operations, capital contributed by the owners of Longfellow and credit extended by Longfellows third-party lender, Amarillo National Bank.

In addition to the Item 3 information previously filed, Mr. Mitchell and his affiliated entities are in discussions with third parties regarding potential sources of funds to acquire the Issuers equity that are not currently owned by Mr. Mitchell and his affiliated entities. Such sources of funds could result in Mr. Mitchell and his affiliated entities partnering with one or more parties to collectively raise sufficient funds to acquire 100% of the Issuers equity. The parties may utilize a combination of debt and equity capital, including debt financing provided by loans from third party financial institutions or other third parties.

 

Item 4.

Purpose of Transaction

Item 4 is hereby amended and supplemented by adding the following language thereto:

There can be no


assurance that such acquisition will be agreed to or consummated. The Reporting Persons do not undertake to amend this Schedule 13D to reflect any discussions with the Issuer regarding the proposal made until such time, if any, as a definitive agreement is reached.

If the Reporting Persons reach an agreement with funding sources and with the Issuer, it is expected that the contemplated transaction will be subject to (i) shareholder approval, (ii) potentially the expiration or termination of the applicable waiting period under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended, and (iii) satisfaction of all consents, approvals or authorizations of, declarations or filings under applicable all applicable laws (domestic and foreign), including competition laws and investment laws.

If the proposed acquisition of 100% of the Issuers equity were to succeed, the Reporting Persons intend to delist the Issuers securities from all stock exchanges and to terminate the securities registration of all outstanding securities.

The Reporting Persons may enter into discussions with other shareholders, industry participants and third parties in connection with all or some of the matters referenced in this Item 4.
