The following constitutes Amendment No. 1 to the Schedule 13D filed by the undersigned (“Amendment No. 1”). This Amendment No. 1 amends the Schedule 13D (the “Initial 13D”) as specifically set forth herein.
Item 3. | Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration. |
Item 3 is hereby amended and restated to read as follows:
The Shares purchased by AOF Fund were purchased with working capital (which may, at any given time, include margin loans made by brokerage firms in the ordinary course of business) in open market purchases, except as otherwise noted, as set forth in Schedule A, which is incorporated by reference herein. The aggregate purchase price of the 3,469,739 Shares beneficially owned by AOF Fund is approximately $4,285,375.76, excluding brokerage commissions.
Item 4. | Purpose of Transaction. |
| Item 4 is hereby amended to add the following: |
On October 5, 2015, AOF Fund and the Issuer entered into the Transfer Agreement (the “Transfer Agreement”), pursuant to which AOF Fund agreed to divest itself of any and all of its beneficially owned Shares in excess of the number of Shares permitted by Section 4.4.3 (“Section 4.4.3”) of the Issuer’s Fourth Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (the “Charter”) to be owned by any shareholder of the Issuer. In connection with such divestment, AOF Fund delivered 6,465 Shares to the Issuer for which, in return, AOF will receive from the Issuer an amount equal to the lesser of (i) AOF Fund’s cost per share multiplied by 6,465 or (ii) the actual sale price of the 6,465 Shares realized in the open market, in each case after deducting commissions that cannot exceed $100 (USD).
The purpose of Section 4.4.3 is to preserve the Issuer’s ability to utilize its net operating loss carryforwards under Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. As a result of AOF Fund’s divestments, and consistent with the Transfer Agreement, the Reporting Persons own less than 5% of the Shares.
