Item 3. | SOURCE AND AMOUNT OF FUNDS OR OTHER CONSIDERATION |
The shares of Common Stock reported herein were delivered to CO, DKP, DKIP (Cayman) II and DKIL (the "DK Funds") by the Issuer on June 2, 2022 in satisfaction of the June 1, 2022 interest payment on the Issuer's 6.00% Convertible Senior Secured Notes due 2024 (the "Notes") held by the DK Funds. | |
The terms of the Notes are governed by an Indenture, dated as of December 23, 2019, among the Issuer, the guarantors party thereto (the "Guarantors"), and Wilmington Trust, National Association, as trustee and collateral agent (the "Indenture"). Pursuant to the terms of the Indenture, the value per share of Common Stock issued in satisfaction of interest payable on the Notes was calculated pursuant to the Indenture to be 95% of the simple average of the daily volume weighted average prices for the ten trading days ending on, and including, May 31, 2022, or $0.4788 per share. |
Item 4. | PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION |
As disclosed in Item 3 above, the shares of Common Stock reported herein were delivered to the DK Funds by the Issuer on June 2, 2022 in satisfaction of the June 1, 2022 interest payment on the Notes.

The topics of these conversations may cover a range of issues, including those relating to the operations and business of the Issuer, management, board composition, investor communications, operations, capital allocation, dividend policy, financial condition, mergers and acquisitions strategy and strategic transactions including potential restructuring transactions relating to the Notes, overall business strategy, executive compensation and corporate governance.

Item 5. | INTEREST IN SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER |
(a) | See rows (11) and (13) of the cover pages to this Schedule 13D for the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock and percentages of the Common Stock beneficially owned by each of the Reporting Persons. The percentages used in this Schedule 13D are calculated based upon an aggregate of 24,277,753 shares of Common Stock outstanding, which is the sum of the (i) 13,285,552 shares of Common Stock outstanding as of May 30, 2022, as provided by the Issuer to the Reporting Persons and (ii) 10,992,201 shares of Common Stock issued by the Issuer on June 2, 2022, as reported in the Issuer's Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on June 2, 2022. |

All of the transactions in the Common Stock listed therein were effected in the open market through various brokerage entities. |

(e) | Not applicable. |
CUSIP No. 00484M601 | SCHEDULE 13D | Page 12 of 18 Pages |
Item 6. | CONTRACTS, ARRANGEMENTS, UNDERSTANDINGS OR RELATIONSHIPS WITH RESPECT TO SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER |
The Reporting Person's response to Item 4 is incorporated by reference into this Item 6. | |
As of the date of this Schedule 13D, the Reporting Persons beneficially own $52,324,000 aggregate principal amount, or 25.3%, of the Notes outstanding. The Notes are senior obligations of the Issuer and the Guarantors, secured by a first priority security interest in substantially all of the assets of the Issuer and the Guarantors, subject to certain exceptions described in the Security Agreement, dated as of December 23, 2019, between the guarantors party thereto and Wilmington Trust, National Association, as collateral agent, which Security Agreement is attached as Exhibit 10.3 to the Issuer’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on December 26, 2019 and the terms of which are incorporated herein by reference. |
The Notes will mature on December 1, 2024 unless earlier converted in accordance with their terms prior to such date. Interest on the Notes is payable semi-annually in arrears at a rate of 6.00% per annum on each June 1 and December 1. The Issuer may elect to pay interest in cash or shares of common stock, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions and limitations. If the Issuer elects to pay interest in shares of common stock, such common stock will have a per share value equal to 95% of the simple average of the daily volume weighted average prices for the ten trading days ending on, and including, the trading day immediately preceding the relevant interest payment date | |
Holders of the Notes may convert all or any portion of their Notes at their option at any time prior to the close of business on the second scheduled trading day immediately preceding December 1, 2024, the maturity date. The conversion rate is currently 47.6190 shares of Common Stock per $1,000 principal amount of the Notes (equivalent to a conversion price of approximately $21.00 per share of Common Stock) and is subject to adjustment as described in the Indenture. Upon conversion of the Notes, the Issuer may satisfy its conversion obligation by paying or delivering, as the case may be, cash, shares of Common Stock or a combination of cash and shares of Common Stock, at the Issuer’s election. Accordingly, the Reporting Persons do not beneficially own any shares of Common Stock that may be issued upon conversion of the Notes at this time. | |
The forgoing description of the terms of the Notes does not purport to be complete and is qualified by the full terms of the Indenture and the Notes which are incorporated herein by reference to Exhibit 4.1 to the Issuer’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on December 26, 2019. | |
Other than as described in this Schedule 13D and the Joint Filing Agreement attached as Exhibit 1 hereto, there are no contracts, arrangements, understandings or similar relationships with respect to the securities of the Issuer between any of the Reporting Persons or Instruction C Persons and any other person or entity. |
