Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer.
Item 5 is hereby amended and restated as follows:
FOE I may be deemed to beneficially own and share the power to vote and dispose of 5,513,959 Common Shares, including 172,848 Common Shares held directly by it and 5,341,111 Common Shares that may be issued to it upon its exercise of option to purchase Common Shares that are held by it and are exercisable within sixty (60) days, which represents 7.7% of the Common Shares outstanding.
Each of FIGC and Fortress may be deemed to beneficially own and share the power to vote and dispose of the 5,513,959 Common Shares beneficially owned by FOE I, by virtue of FIGC being the general partner of FOE I and by virtue of Fortress’s ownership of all the interests of FIGC, which such Common Shares represent 7.7% of the Common Shares outstanding.
All percentages of Common Shares outstanding contained herein are based on 66,734,136 Common Shares outstanding as of August 2, 2016 plus 5,341,111 options beneficially owned by the Reporting Persons that, as of October 2, 2016, were exercisable within 60 days.
As described in the Issuer’s Proxy Statement for the 2016 Annual Meeting of Stockholders as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 8, 2016 (the “2016 Proxy Statement”), certain options previously held by the Reporting Persons become exercisable as to 1/30th of the Common Shares subject to such options on the first day of each of the following 30 calendar months following the date of grant. Accordingly, on September 2, 2016 and October 2, 2016, such options became exercisable within sixty days in respect of 25,514 Common Shares and 25,514 Common Shares, respectively. This amendment is being filed to report the acquisition of beneficial ownership, as a result of the vesting of previously granted options, as described above, by the Reporting Persons of one percent or more of the Common Shares outstanding since the filing of the original Schedule 13D on May 19, 2015.
Other than previously-held options to purchase Common Shares becoming exercisable within sixty days, no Reporting Person or any person for whom disclosure is required pursuant to General Instruction C effected any transactions in the Common Shares in the past sixty days.
Item 6. Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships with Respect to Securities of the Issuer.
Item 6 is hereby amended by restating the first paragraph of the Item as follows:
As described in the Issuer’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the Fiscal Year Ended December 31, 2015 as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 10, 2016 (the “2015 10-K”), the Reporting Persons or an affiliate of them may direct awards of options to purchase Common Shares otherwise acquired by the Reporting Persons pursuant to the Advisory Agreement to employees of the Reporting Persons’ affiliates who act as officers for the Issuer or perform other services for the Issuer. Such options are referred to as “Tandem Options.” Tandem Options correspond on a one-to-one basis with options held by the Reporting Persons, such that exercise by a holder of a Tandem Option would result in the corresponding option held by the Reporting Person being cancelled. The Reporting Persons have agreed that while Tandem Options remain outstanding, the Reporting Person will not exercise any options that relate to the options outstanding under such Tandem Options. However, if any Tandem Options are forfeited, expire or are cancelled without being exercised, the related options held by the Reporting Persons will again become exercisable in accordance with their terms. As of the date of this statement, 266,657 options held by the Reporting Persons to purchase Common Shares are subject to Tandem Options. The disclosure herein concerning Tandem Options is a
summary; for further information regarding Tandem Options, see the Issuer’s related disclosure in the 2016 Proxy Statement under the caption “Proposal No. 3 Approval of the 2016 Nonqualified Option and Incentive Award Plan—Summary of the Plan Terms—Tandem Options.”
