Item 4.

Purpose of Transaction.

Item 4 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented as follows:

The Proposed Transaction

On July 18, 2023, CSP EAF II GP Limited, as general partner of CSP Fund II LP (CSP EAF), an entity affiliated with the Reporting Persons, submitted an offer letter (the Proposal) to the Issuers board of directors (the Board of Directors) to acquire all of the outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Issuer not already beneficially owned by the Reporting Persons at a price per share of $3.80 in cash (the Proposed Transaction).

CSP EAF intends to finance the Proposed Transaction with fully committed equity capital, which will be provided by one or more investment funds affiliated with CSP EAF (such affiliated investment funds, together with CSP EAF, CSP II). The Proposed Transaction would result in a de-listing and de-registration of the Common Stock.

Jointly, the Reporting Persons and CSP II may, at the same time or subsequently, also explore other strategic alternatives, including but not limited to: different kinds of corporate transactions involving the Issuer and its securities, such as sales or acquisitions of shares, assets or businesses by the Issuer, including sales to or acquisitions from affiliates of the Reporting Persons; engaging with third parties to pursue other strategic transactions, including, but not limited to, a transaction that leads to a de-listing and de-registration of the Common Stock or other business combination transactions such as a merger, reorganization, or other material transaction. The Reporting Persons and CSP II can provide no assurances that they will successfully consummate the Proposed Transaction or any other strategic alternative.

Individuals affiliated with the Reporting Persons and CSP II, including the Reporting Persons designees to the Board of Directors, intend to: engage in communications, discussions and negotiations with stockholders of the Issuer, members of management, members of the Board of Directors, and the legal, financial, accounting and other advisors to management and the Board of Directors regarding the Proposed Transaction and various alternative transaction that may from time to time be under consideration by the Reporting Persons. To facilitate their consideration of such matters, the Reporting Persons and CSP II have recently, or intend to, retain consultants and advisors and enter into discussions with potential sources of capital and other third parties. The Reporting Persons and CSP II may exchange information with any such persons pursuant to appropriate confidentiality or similar obligations or agreements.

The foregoing description of the Proposal does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Proposal, a copy of which is attached as an exhibit to this Schedule 13D and incorporated herein by reference.

General

The Reporting Persons intend to review their investments in the Issuer on a continuing basis. Any actions the Reporting Persons undertake will be dependent upon the Reporting Persons review of numerous factors, including, but not limited to: an ongoing evaluation of the Issuers management, business, financial condition, operations and prospects; price levels of the Issuers securities; general market, industry and economic conditions; the relative attractiveness of alternative business and investment opportunities; and other future developments.

The Reporting Persons, at any time and from time to time may acquire additional securities of the Issuer or retain or sell all or a portion of the securities then held, in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions.

Other than as described above, none of the Reporting Persons currently have any plans or proposals that relate to, or would result in, any of the matters listed in Items 4(a)(j) of Schedule 13D, although, depending on the factors discussed herein, the Reporting Persons may change their purpose or formulate different plans or proposals with respect thereto at any time.
