Unless otherwise defined, all capitalized terms used herein shall have the respective meanings given to such terms in the Schedule 13D. 

 

Item 2.Identity and Background.

 

Item 2 is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:

 

(a)- (c) and (f).

 

The persons filing this Schedule 13D are 325 Capital Master Fund LP, a Cayman Islands exempted limited partnership (“325 Master Fund”), 325 Capital GP, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company registered as a foreign partnership in the Cayman Islands (“325 Capital GP”), 325 Capital LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“325”), Michael Braner, a United States citizen, Daniel Friedberg, a United States citizen, and Anil Shrivastava, a United States citizen (collectively, the “Reporting Persons”).

The principal business of 325 is serving as the investment manager to 325 Master Fund and to certain affiliated funds and separately managed accounts (collectively, the “SMAs”). Messrs. Braner, Friedberg, and Shrivastava are Managing Members of 325.

 

For each of the Reporting Persons, except for 325 Master Fund, the principal business address, which also serves as the principal office, is 200 Park Avenue, 17th Floor, New York, NY 10016. The principal business address for 325 Master Fund is 190 Elgin Avenue, George Town, Grand Cayman KY1-9008, Cayman Islands.

(d) – (e).

 

During the last five years, none of the Reporting Persons, nor any of their respective directors or executive officers have been convicted in a criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations or similar misdemeanors), or have been a party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative body of competent jurisdiction and, as a result of such proceeding was, or is, subject to a judgement, decree or final order enjoining future violations of, or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to, United States federal or state securities laws or finding any violation with respect to such laws.

Item 5.Interest in Securities of the Issuer.

Item 5 is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:

 

8

CUSIP No. 892918103

(a)As of the close of business on February 3, 2022, the Reporting Persons beneficially owned an aggregate of 1,011,789 Shares, which represented 10.3% of the outstanding Shares, based upon 9,835,379 Shares outstanding as of October 31, 2021 as reported in the Issuer’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on November 12, 2021.

The aggregate beneficial ownership reflected in the remainder of this Item 5, and in the cover pages, reflect beneficial ownership as of the close of business on February 3, 2022.

(b)Sole power to vote or direct the vote: 0

Shared power to vote or direct the vote: 1,011,789

Sole power to dispose or to direct the disposition: 0

Shared power to dispose or direct the disposition: 1,011,789

 

The power to vote or to direct the vote or to dispose or direct the disposition of the Shares reported herein is shared among the Reporting Persons, including the 786,461 Shares held in the SMAs.

Because of the arrangements in the Group Agreement, the Reporting Persons, Harbert Fund and certain affiliates of Harbert Fund that beneficially own Shares (the “Harbert Reporting Persons”) may be deemed to have formed a “group” for purposes of Section 13(d)(3) of the Act. Based on information and belief, collectively, the “group” may be deemed to beneficially own an aggregate of 1,651,957 Shares, which represents approximately 16.8% of the outstanding Common Stock. The Harbert Reporting Persons separately report their beneficial ownership of the Shares on a Schedule 13D with the Securities and Exchange Commission and reference is hereby made to those filings for the beneficial ownership of each Harbert Reporting Person and any changes made thereto. Neither the filing of this Schedule 13D nor any of its contents, however, shall be deemed to constitute an admission by any Reporting Person that it is the beneficial owner of any Shares beneficially owned by Harbert Fund or any of its affiliates for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Act or for any other purpose, and such beneficial ownership is expressly disclaimed.

(c)The Reporting Persons have not entered into any transactions in the securities of the Issuer since the filing of Amendment No. 2.
(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 the proceeds from the sale of, the Shares.
(e)Not applicable.
Item 6.Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships with Respect to Securities of the Issuer.

Item 6 is hereby amended to add the following:

 

On February 1, 2022, 325 and the Harbert Fund entered into the Group Agreement which sets forth certain agreements among the parties with respect to their intention to jointly coordinate their activities with respect to the Issuer as set forth in the Group Agreement. The foregoing description is not complete and is qualified in its entirely by reference to the full text of the Group Agreement which is attached hereto as Exhibit 1 and is incorporated by reference herein.

On February 3, 2022, the Reporting Persons entered into a Joint Filing Agreement in which the Reporting Persons agreed to the joint filing on behalf of each of them of statements on Schedule 13D with respect to the securities of the Issuer to the extent required by applicable law. The Joint Filing Agreement is attached hereto as Exhibit 2 and is incorporated herein by reference.

  Item 7 is hereby amended to add the following:
   
  Exhibit 1 Group Agreement, dated February 1, 2022
     
  Exhibit 2 Joint Filing Agreement, dated February 3, 2022
