(f) All of the individuals who are members of the PL Capital Group are citizens of the United States.
Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration
In aggregate, the PL Capital Group owns 1,188,729 shares of Common Stock of the Company acquired at an aggregate cost of $19,014,899.
From time to time, members of the PL Capital Group may purchase Common Stock on margin provided by BNP Paribas Prime Brokerage Inc. (“BNP Paribas”) on such firms’ usual terms and conditions. All or part of the shares of Common Stock owned by members of the PL Capital Group may from time to time be pledged with one or more banking institutions or brokerage firms as collateral for loans made by such entities to members of the PL Capital Group. Such loans, if any, generally bear interest at a rate based upon the federal funds rate plus a margin. Such indebtedness, if any, may be refinanced with other banks or broker-dealers. As of the date of this filing, no members of the PL Capital Group have margin from BNP Paribas or other loans outstanding secured by Common Stock.

Item 4. Purpose of Transaction
This is the PL Capital Group’s third amendment to its initial Schedule 13D filing. In the aggregate, the PL Capital Group owns 8.4% of the Company’s Common Stock, based upon the Company’s aggregate outstanding shares as of April 30, 2014. The PL Capital Group acquired the Common Stock because it believes the Common Stock is undervalued. The PL Capital Group’s intent is to monitor the performance of the Company and the actions of the Company’s management and board of directors, and where needed, to assert the PL Capital Group’s stockholder rights.
Richard Lashley, a principal of the PL Capital Group, sent a letter dated June 18, 2014 to Mr. Gary Nalbandian, Chairman, President & CEO of the Company. A copy of the letter is attached as Exhibit 2 to this Schedule 13D.
Unless otherwise noted in this Schedule 13D, no member of the PL Capital Group has any plans or proposals, which relate to, or would result in, any of the matters referred to in paragraphs (b) through (j), inclusive of Item (4) of Schedule 13D. Such individuals may, at any time and from time to time, review or reconsider their positions and formulate plans or proposals with respect thereto. Members of the PL Capital Group may make further purchases of shares of Common Stock, although the PL Capital Group has no present intention of increasing the PL Capital Group’s aggregate holdings above 9.99% of the Company’s outstanding Common Stock. Members of the PL Capital Group may dispose of any or all the shares of Common Stock held by them.
Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Company
The percentages used in this amended Schedule 13D are calculated based upon the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock, 14,179,223, reported as the number of outstanding shares as of April 30, 2014, in the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed on May 9, 2014.
