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 as specifically set forth herein.
Item 4. | Purpose of Transaction. |
Item 4 is hereby amended to add the following:
On May 29, 2018, Blackwells Capital submitted a supplement (the “ Section 220 Letter Supplement”) to its April 13, 2018 and May 18, 2018 letters to the Issuer, pursuant to Section 220 of the Delaware General Corporation Law (“Section 220”), requesting to inspect, among other things, books and records with respect to the use of the Issuer’s private jet and related corporate policies (the “Private Jet Records”). The 220 Demand Letter Supplement was delivered to the Issuer following the Issuer’s continued assertions that Blackwells Capital did not have a proper purpose to inspect the Private Jet Records.
The Section 220 Letter Supplement includes an additional request of the Issuer, made pursuant to Section 220, to inspect books and records containing information that would allow Blackwells Capital to confirm that the Board is treating the highly qualified and independent professionals nominated by Blackwells Capital in a manner consistent with the board member selection processes undertaken by the Issuer in the past (the “Director Selection Records”). Blackwells Capital has requested the Director Selection Records because of the Board’s request to have its executive recruiting firm screen two (2) out of the six (6) director candidates nominated by Blackwells Capital before even considering whether it would meet with these candidates.
