(the “Fund”), BFK Investments LLC (“BFK”), the general partner of the Fund, and Jeffrey A. Berg, the Managing Member of BFK. The Fund, BFK and Jeffrey A. Berg are collectively referred to herein as the “Reporting Persons”. Except as specifically amended by this Amendment No. 11, items in the Schedule 13D are unchanged.

 

This Amendment No. 11 reports a decrease in the Reporting Persons’ ownership of (and percentage of beneficial ownership of) the outstanding shares of Stock since the date the Reporting Persons’ last filing on Schedule 13D as a result of the Reporting Persons’ sale of 146,900 shares of Stock through June 3, 2020 as follows:

Information in this Amendment No. 11 with respect to each of the Reporting Persons is given solely by that particular Reporting Person, and none of the other Reporting Persons has any responsibility for the accuracy or completeness of information with respect to any other Reporting Person. Capitalized terms used herein that are not defined herein have the meanings ascribed to them in the Schedule 13D.

 

Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration

 

The information provided in Item 5 of this Amendment No. 11 is incorporated by reference to this Item 3.

 

Item 3 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented by adding the following at the end thereof:

 

In June 2017 and September 2017, Mr. Berg received 827 and 919 shares, respectively, of restricted stock awards reported in Item 5 of this Amendment No. 11 in lieu of a portion of the annual retainer earned by Mr. Berg in his capacity as a non-employee director of the issuer with respect to the quarters ended June 30, 2017 and September 30, 2017. The restricted stock grants were fully vested on the date of grant. The aggregate value of the shares issued was $11,248.

 

Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer

 

Paragraphs (a), (b) and (d) of Item 5 of the Schedule 13D are hereby amended by replacing them in their entirety with the following:

 

 

CUSIP No. 629410606

 

(a), (b) & (d): Each Reporting Person’s beneficial ownership of the Stock on the date of this Amendment No. 11 is reflected on that Reporting Person’s cover page of this Amendment No. 11. The percentage of shares owned by the Reporting Persons is based upon 2,936,769 shares of Stock outstanding, which is the number of shares outstanding on May 18, 2020, as reported in the Issuer’s filings with the SEC. BFK is a limited liability company and serves as the general partner of the Fund with the power to invest in, vote and dispose of the Stock on behalf the Fund. The Fund has the right to receive or the power to direct the receipt of dividends from, or the proceeds from the sale of, the Stock. Only Mr. Berg as a limited partner in the Fund individually has an interest through the Fund in more than 5% of the outstanding Stock. Mr. Berg is the Managing Member of BFK and controls the investment decisions of BFK and the Fund. The Reporting Persons are filing the Schedule 13D jointly, but not as members of a group, and each of them expressly disclaims membership in a group. Each of BFK and Mr. Berg disclaims beneficial ownership of the Stock except to the extent of that Reporting Person’s pecuniary interest therein. In addition, the filing of the Schedule 13D on behalf of the Fund should not be construed as an admission that any of the other Reporting Persons is, and each of them disclaims that it is, the beneficial owner, as defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, of any of the Stock covered by the Schedule 13D.

 

Paragraph (c) of Item 5 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended by the addition of the following:

 

(c) The following sets forth all transactions with respect to Shares effected by the Reporting Persons since their last filing on Schedule 13D: In June 2017 and September 2017, Mr. Berg received 827 and 919 shares, respectively, of restricted stock awards reported in Item 5 of this Amendment No. 11 in lieu of a portion of the annual retainer earned by Mr. Berg in his capacity as a non-employee director of the issuer with respect to the quarters ended June 30, 2017 and September 30, 2017. The restricted stock grants were fully vested on the date of grant. The aggregate value of the shares issued was $11,248.
