CUSIP No. 399473206

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 is hereby amended and restated to read as follows:

The shares of Common Stock purchased by MIG Master Fund and held in a certain account managed by MIG Capital (the “MIG Account”) were purchased with working capital (which may, at any given time, include margin loans made by brokerage firms in the ordinary course of business). The aggregate purchase price of the 1,318,855 shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by MIG Master Fund is approximately $65,893,417, including brokerage commissions. The aggregate purchase price of the 39,317 shares of Common Stock held in the MIG Account is approximately $922,437, including brokerage commissions.

Item 5.Interest in Securities of the Issuer.

Item 5 is hereby amended and restated to read as follows:

(a)       The aggregate percentage of shares of Common Stock reported owned by each person named herein is based upon 28,988,465 shares of Common Stock outstanding as of February 22, 2021, which is the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding as reported in the Issuer’s annual report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 25, 2021.

As of the date hereof, MIG Master Fund directly beneficially owned 1,318,855 shares of Common Stock, constituting approximately 4.5% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock. MIG Advisors, as the general partner of MIG Master Fund, may be deemed to beneficially own the 1,318,855 shares of Common Stock owned by MIG Master Fund, constituting approximately 4.5% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock.

As of the date hereof, 39,317 shares of Common Stock were held in the MIG Account, constituting less than 1% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock.

MIG Capital, as the investment manager of MIG Master Fund and the MIG Account, may be deemed to beneficially own the 1,358,172 shares of Common Stock owned in the aggregate by MIG Master Fund and held in the MIG Account, constituting approximately 4.7% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock. Mr. Merage, as the Chief Executive Officer and Manager of each of MIG Advisors and MIG Capital, may be deemed to beneficially own the 1,358,172 shares of Common Stock owned in the aggregate by MIG Master Fund and held in the MIG Account, constituting approximately 4.7% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock.

The filing of this Schedule 13D shall not be deemed an admission that the Reporting Persons are, for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, the beneficial owners of any securities of the Issuer he or it does not directly own. Each of the Reporting Persons specifically disclaims beneficial ownership of the securities reported herein that he or it does not directly own.

(b)       By virtue of their respective relationships to MIG Master Fund, each of MIG Master Fund, MIG Advisors, MIG Capital and Mr. Merage may be deemed to share the power to vote and dispose of the shares of Common Stock directly owned by MIG Master Fund.

(c)       The transactions in the securities of the Issuer by the Reporting Persons during the past 60 days are set forth in Schedule A annexed hereto and are incorporated herein by reference. All of such transactions were effected in the open market unless otherwise noted.

(d)       No person other than the Reporting Persons is known to have the right to receive, or the power to direct the receipt of dividends from, or proceeds from the sale of, the shares of Common Stock.

(e)       As of March 9, 2021, the Reporting Persons ceased to be the beneficial owners of more than 5% of the shares of Common Stock of the Issuer.
