This Amendment is being filed by Jeremy P. Hitchcock, Elizabeth Cash Hitchcock, Orbit Group LLC (“Orbit”), Hitchcock Capital Partners, LLC (“HCP”), Zulu Holdings LLC (“Zulu”), and a stockholders group pursuant to Section 13(d)(3) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.  The stockholders group (the “Group”) is comprised of Jeremy P. Hitchcock, Elizabeth Cash Hitchcock, Orbit, HCP and Zulu.
 
This Amendment further amends (i) the Schedule 13D filed on May 3, 2019 by Jeremy P. Hitchcock, Elizabeth Cash Hitchcock, Orbit, HCP, Zulu, and the Group and (ii) the Amendment No. 1 to Schedule 13D filed on October 21, 2019 by Jeremy P. Hitchcock, Elizabeth Cash Hitchcock, Orbit, HCP, Zulu, and the Group (collectively, the “Schedule 13D”).
 
Item 3.
Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration

Item 4.
Purpose of Transaction
 
Item 4 of the Schedule 13D is amended and supplemented by the addition of the following to the antepenultimate paragraph of Item 4:
 
Due to his continued concern and the lack of any significant progress resulting from the previous Special Meeting of the Board held on October 28, 2019, Jeremy P. Hitchcock has had continued discussions with senior management of the Issuer, and also has had continued discussions with other members of the Board, regarding certain corporate governance matters, which included changes to the composition of the senior management team.  As a result, on January 15, 2020, a special meeting of the Board was called by Mr. Hitchcock and three other directors to be held on January 16, 2020 to discuss and to seek to resolve these matters.

As of the date hereof, Jeremy P. Hitchcock beneficially owns, in aggregate, 3,772,453 shares of Common Stock, representing approximately 18.1% of the Issuer's outstanding shares, which includes 37,500 shares of Common Stock that may be acquired within 60 days of the date hereof pursuant to the exercise of stock options.
 
The aggregate percentage of Common Stock reported owned by each Reporting Person named herein is based upon 20,880,136 shares of Common Stock outstanding, which is the total number of Common Stock outstanding as reported in the Issuer’s Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended September 30, 3019 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on November 14, 2019.
