Item 4 of the Schedule 13D is hereby supplemented as follows:
 
On February 25, 2020, the Stock Trading Plan entered into between A-A SMA and Allen & Company LLC  (“Allen & Company”), dated February 19, 2019, terminated.  On March 9, 2020, A-A SMA entered into a new 10b5-1 stock trading plan (the “2020 Stock Trading Plan”) with Allen & Company pursuant to which Allen & Company was appointed by A-A SMA to purchase on behalf of A-A SMA up to an aggregate of 721,236 shares of Common Stock, commencing from March 9, 2020 and ending on March 9, 2021 or until all of the shares of Common Stock to be purchased under the 2020 Stock Trading Plan are purchased or the 2020 Stock Trading Plan is otherwise terminated. The foregoing description of the 2020 Stock Trading Plan does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by, the full text of the 2020 Stock Trading Plan, a copy of which is attached here as Exhibit 6.
