On August 2, 2016, in connection with the Issuer’s entry into that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated July 24, 2016 (the “Merger Agreement”), with Aspen Parent, Inc. and the other parties thereto, Engaged Capital and certain of its affiliates (“Engaged Capital”) and the Issuer entered into an amendment (the “Amendment”) to that certain Cooperation Agreement, dated April 11, 2016 (the “Cooperation Agreement”).
