Preliminary Note. Pursuant to Rule 13d-2 promulgated under the Act, this amendment to Schedule 13D (this “Amendment No. 1”) amends the Schedule 13D filed on March 22, 2018 (the “Original Schedule 13D” and together with this Amendment No. 1, the “Schedule 13D”).

Item 3. | Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration. |
The first paragraph in the response to Item 3 of the Original Schedule 13D is hereby amended and restated to read as follows:
As of April 6, 2018, the Reporting Person had purchased an aggregate of 1,192,253 Shares over the course of various prior purchases totaling approximately $13 million.
Item 4. | Purpose of Transaction. |
Item 4 of the Original Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented by adding the following paragraphs at the end of the response to Item 4:
As disclosed in the Original Schedule 13D, the Reporting Person’s representatives (specifically, Robert Averick) intend to have discussions with the Issuer’s representatives regarding, among other things, board composition, size and expenses.
On April 4, 2018, the Reporting Person proposed to certain representatives of the Issuer that (i) the Issuer’s board of directors (the “Board”) be reduced in size; (ii) the Issuer continue to compensate directors using a combination of cash and equity-based incentive compensation, but reduce the aggregate amount paid to each director; and (iii) the Reporting Person be invited by the Issuer to nominate two yet-to-be-identified individuals to serve as directors on the Board. The Reporting Person and its representatives are willing to work constructively with management and the Board of the Issuer to explore these proposals in further detail.

1 | The Reporting Person is a pooled investment vehicle formed for the benefit of a single family and certain “key employees” (as defined in the Family Office Rule) of Kokino. The Reporting Person is managed by its managing member, PCM. PCM is in turn managed by its managing member, Kokino. Additionally, Kokino is the trading manager of the Reporting Person, and in that capacity Kokino acts on behalf of the Reporting Person as an agent. Robert Averick, in his capacity as an employee of Kokino, manages the Reporting Person’s investment in the Shares. PCM and Kokino are each a “family office” (as defined in the Family Office Rule) of the same family, and any voting power or investment power PCM, Kokino or Mr. Averick may hold over the Shares is ultimately attributed to the Reporting Person reporting on this Schedule 13D. |
