CUSIP No. 817732100

The following constitutes Amendment No. 4 ("Amendment No. 4") to the 13D filed by the undersigned on November 14, 2022 (the "Schedule 13D"). This Amendment No. 4 amends the Schedule 13D as specifically set forth herein.

Item 2. Identity and Background.

Item 2 is hereby amended to add the following:

In connection with the withdrawal of Star Equity Fund’s nominees for election at the Issuer’s 2023 annual meeting of stockholders (the “Annual Meeting”), Richard K. Coleman, Jr. and G. Mark Pomeroy are no longer members of the Section 13(d) group and shall cease to be Reporting Persons immediately upon the filing of this Amendment No. 4 to the Schedule 13D, at which time the Joint Filing and Solicitation Agreement, described in Item 6, is also terminated. The remaining Reporting Persons will continue filing statements on Schedule 13D with respect to their beneficial ownership of securities of the Issuer to the extent required by applicable law. Each of the remaining Reporting Persons is party to the Joint Filing Agreement, as further described in Item 6 below.

Item 4. Purpose of Transaction.

Item 4 is hereby amended to add the following:

On May 31, 2023, Star Equity Fund issued in a press release ("May 31st PR") where it reiterated its belief that the incumbent Board, specifically, Edward Cosgrove, Christopher Marks, and William Farrell lacks the necessary experience and expertise to change the trajectory at the Issuer. Star Equity Fund also emphasized that although the Issuer announced its intent to sell the Issuer's Consumer Products Group after pressure from Star Equity Fund's campaign, intent does not drive shareholder value, but rather execution drives value.

Star Equity Holdings further stated its belief that the long-suffering shareholders of the Issuer would be better served by the Issuer exploring strategic alternatives with strategic buyers for ALLits assets, which includes both its Consumer Products Group and Aerospace segments, in addition to real estate assets.

Star Equity Fund further emphasized their view by stating the continued directorship of Cosgrove, Marks, and Farrell is an impediment to further positive change and harmful to shareholders’ interests, given their inability to orchestrate a much-needed turnaround at the Issuer evidenced by their past poor performance.

The foregoing description of the press release is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the press release, which is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.9 and is incorporated herein by reference.

On June 1, 2023, Star Equity Fund withdrew its nomination of Messrs. Coleman and Pomeroy for election to the Board at the Annual Meeting.

CUSIP No. 817732100


Item 6.			Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships With Respect to Securities of the Issuer.

Item 6 is hereby amended to add the following:

On June 1, 2023, the Issuer acknowledged receipt of Star Equity Fund's notice of withdrawal of its slate of directors for nomination to the Board at the Annual Meeting (the “Withdrawal Notice”) notifying the Issuer that it withdrew its nomination of Richard K. Coleman, Jr. and G. Mark Pomeroy for election to the Board at the Annual Meeting.

On June 1, 2023, the Reporting Persons entered into a Joint Filing Agreement in which the Reporting Persons who will remain Reporting Persons subsequent to this Amendment No. 4 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 99.10 and is incorporated herein by reference.


Item 7.			Material to be Filed as Exhibits.

Item 7 is hereby amended to add the following:

The following items are filed as exhibits:


99.9						Press Release, dated May 31, 2023
99.1 0						Joint Filing Agreement, dated June 1, 2023
