Item 3 is hereby amended and restated as follows:
The securities purchased by each of Starboard V&O Fund, Starboard S LLC, Starboard C LP, Starboard L Master, Starboard X Master and Starboard Value LP through the Starboard Value LP Account were purchased with working capital pursuant to the terms of the various agreements entered into with the Issuer, as further described in Item 4 below.

The aggregate purchase price of the 1,526,380 Shares beneficially owned by Starboard X Master is approximately $6,716,069, excluding brokerage commissions. The aggregate purchase price of the 3,400,000 Shares held in the Starboard Value LP Account is approximately $14,960,000, excluding brokerage commissions.
123,544 of the Shares beneficially owned directly by Mr. Sagal were awarded to him in his capacity as a director of the Issuer. 24,335 of the Shares beneficially owned directly by Mr. Sagal were purchased with personal funds in connection with Mr. Sagal’s exercise of certain subscriptions rights in connection with the Public Rights Offering defined and described in Item 4 below.

| Item 4. | Purpose of Transaction. |
Item 4 is hereby amended to add the following:
As previously disclosed, on October 30, 2022, Starboard Value LP and certain of its affiliates (collectively, “Starboard”) entered into a Recapitalization Agreement (the “Recapitalization Agreement”) with the Issuer, pursuant to which, among other things, Starboard and the Issuer agreed to enter into a series of transactions to restructure Starboard’s existing investments in the Issuer. As contemplated by the Recapitalization Agreement, among other things, Starboard received private subscription rights to purchases Shares at an exercise price of $5.25 per Share on a pro rata basis to the Issuer’s other stockholders pursuant to a private rights offering (the “Concurrent Private Rights Offering”) running concurrently to the public rights offering (the “Public Rights Offering”) commenced by the Issuer on February 15, 2023. The private subscription rights provided to Starboard in the Concurrent Private Rights Offering expired at 5:00 p.m. Eastern time on March 1, 2023 (the “Expiration Time”), and the Concurrent Private Rights Offering closed at the same time as the Public Rights Offering (the “Closing”). As a result of the Public Rights Offering and Concurrent Private Rights Offering, Starboard is the beneficial owner of 20,000,000 Shares, representing approximately 34.2% of the Issuer’s outstanding Shares, as reported herein. In addition, immediately following the Closing, an aggregate of 68,493,151 of the Issuer’s Series B Warrants (the “Series B Warrants”) held by Starboard were cancelled pursuant to the terms of the Recapitalization Agreement.

On February 14, 2023, the Issuer entered into an amended and restated registration rights agreement (the “Amended and Restated Registration Rights Agreement”) with Starboard, as contemplated by the Recapitalization Agreement. Pursuant to the Amended and Restated Registration Rights Agreement, the Issuer agreed to file a registration statement covering the resale of the Shares issuable or issued to Starboard pursuant to or in accordance with Section 1.1 of the Recapitalization Agreement, including the Shares issued to Starboard in the Concurrent Private Rights Offering, within 90 days after a written request made prior to the first anniversary of the Closing Date (as defined in the Amended and Restated Registration Rights Agreement).
