Item 4. | Purpose of Transaction. |
The Reporting Persons acquired their shares of Common Stock based upon their view that the stock is trading below its intrinsic value due to inappropriate management of the Issuer by its current CEO. The Reporting Persons seek to influence the board of directors of the Issuer to change the CEO and or to sell the Issuer to another company thereby achieving gains in Common Stock of the Issuer for the current shareholders of the Issuer. The actions of the Reporting Persons are based upon a detailed and complex analysis of the Issuer, its operations, financial results, competitive environment, the general economic environment in which it operates, securities markets in general and the market for the Issuer’s securities in particular as well as other factors. Accordingly, each of the Reporting Persons reserves the right to change its intentions and develop new or different proposals at any time as it deems appropriate.
Each Reporting Person may at any time and from time to time, in the open market, in privately negotiated transactions or otherwise, acquire additional securities of the Issuer, including additional shares of Common Stock, and dispose of all or a portion of the securities of the Issuer including the Common Stock that the Reporting Persons now own or may hereafter acquire. In addition, the Reporting Persons may engage in discussions with management, members of the board of directors of the Issuer, shareholders of the Issuer, and other relevant parties concerning the operations, management, composition of the Issuer’s board of directors and management (including but not limited to the retention of is its CEO), ownership capital structure, balance sheet management strategy and future plans of the Issuer including the possibility of a sale of the Issuer, business combinations, mergers, assets sales, asset purchases, or other similar transactions involving the Issuer and third parties.
