This Amendment No. 1 (“
Amendment No.
1
”) amends and supplements the statement on Schedule 13D (the “
Statement
”) initially filed by the
Reporting Persons on July 18, 2016. Information reported in the Statement remains in effect except to the extent that it is amended,
restated or superseded by information contained in this Amendment No. 1. Capitalized terms used and not defined in this Amendment
No. 1 shall have the meanings set forth in the Statement.
Item 4. Purpose of the Transaction.
The third paragraph of Item 4 of the Statement
is hereby amended and replaced in its entirety as follows:
“Lauro 57 acquired the Common Stock of the Issuer in the
Transaction for investment purposes. Subject to the provisions of the Lauro 57 Shareholders Agreement, the Amended Lauro 57 Shareholders
Agreement, the Registration Rights and Lock-Up Agreement (as defined below in Item 6) and the Stockholders Agreement (as defined
below in Item 6), in connection with the Reporting Persons’ ongoing evaluation of this investment and upon future developments
(including the performance of the Common Stock in the market, the attractiveness of alternative business and investment opportunities,
the ongoing evaluation of the Issuer’s business, financial condition, operating results and prospects and general stock
market and economic conditions), the Reporting Persons (directly or indirectly) (i) may from time to time dispose of all or a
portion of the Common Stock acquired pursuant to the Transaction, (ii) may or may not in the future seek to acquire, alone or
in conjunction with others, additional shares of Common Stock of the Issuer, through open market purchases, negotiated transactions,
tender offer, merger or otherwise or (iii) may or may not change such Reporting Person’s intention with respect to any or
all of the matters referred to in this Item 4. Future purchases will depend on market, business and economic conditions, availability
of capital, factors relating to the Issuer (including the market price of Common Stock) and other factors that the Reporting Persons
may consider relevant. Future sales will depend on the factors set forth above. There can be no assurance that the Reporting Persons
will (directly or indirectly) purchase any additional shares of Common Stock or dispose of any shares of Common Stock.”
Item 4 of the Statement is further hereby amended
and supplemented as follows:
“
Amended Lauro 57 Shareholders Agreement
.
The parties to the Amended Lauro 57 Shareholders Agreement agree
that, upon the Effective Date, any sale of the Issuer’s Common Stock held by Lauro 57 for consideration less than fourteen
U.S. dollars ($14.00) per share requires the approval of more than seventy percent (70%) of the shareholders holding Lauro 57’s
total capital stock. Additionally, following the expiration of the lock-up period provided in the Stockholders Agreement and the
Registration Rights and Lock-Up Agreement, the Lauro 57 shareholders agree to cause Lauro 57’s board of directors to resolve
to sell the Issuer’s Common Stock held by Lauro 57, in whole or in part, for the purpose of maximizing value, taking into
account not only the interest of Lauro 57, but also that of each of the Lauro 57 shareholders. If Lauro 57 still holds any of
the Issuer’s Common Stock on January 11, 2019, the Lauro 57 shareholders agree to cause the transfer of such Common Stock
proportionally to the Lauro 57 shareholders.
The foregoing description of the Amended Lauro 57 Shareholders
Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to such agreement. A copy of the Amended
Lauro 57 Shareholders Agreement, listed as Exhibit 7.8 hereto, is incorporated herein by reference.
To the extent that the parties to the Amended Lauro 57 Shareholders
Agreement may be deemed to constitute a “group” within the meaning of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the Reporting
Persons may be deemed to share beneficial ownership of the shares of Common Stock owned by the other shareholder parties to the
Amended Lauro 57 Shareholders Agreement, the Reporting Persons expressly disclaim beneficial ownership of any shares of Common
Stock held by such other parties.”
Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer.
Item 5(b) of the Statement is hereby amended
and supplemented as follows:
“On August 5, 2016, the shareholders of Lauro 57 entered
into a
Patto Parasociale Consolidato
(
i.e.
, a Shareholders Agreement) to amend and replace the Lauro 57 Shareholders
Agreement and implement and supersede the Memorandum of Understanding (the “
Amended Lauro 57 Shareholders Agreement
”)
upon the earlier of (i) the date of the meeting of the Lauro 57 shareholders pursuant to paragraph 2.1.7 of the Amended Lauro
57 Shareholders Agreement and (ii) September 30, 2016 (the “
Effective Date
”). Upon the Effective Date, each
of Lauro 48 and Mandarin will have the right to appoint a director to Lauro 57’s three member board of directors and each
such director must approve any action of Lauro 57’s board of directors, including any disposition of the Issuer’s
Common Stock held by Lauro 57. Upon the Effective Date, no shareholder of Lauro 57 will have any “drag along” rights
under the Amended Lauro 57 Shareholders Agreement.
The foregoing description of the Amended Lauro 57 Shareholders
Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to such agreement. A copy of the Amended
Lauro 57 Shareholders Agreement, listed as Exhibit 7.8 hereto, is incorporated herein by reference.
To the extent that the parties to the Amended Lauro 57 Shareholders
Agreement may be deemed to constitute a “group” within the meaning of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the Reporting
Persons may be deemed to share beneficial ownership of the shares of Common Stock owned by the other shareholder parties to the
Amended Lauro 57 Shareholders Agreement, the Reporting Persons expressly disclaim beneficial ownership of any shares of Common
Stock held by such other parties.”
Item 6. Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships
with Respect to Securities of the Issuer.
The first paragraph of Item 6 is hereby amended
and replaced in its entirety as follows:
“The information set forth or incorporated in Items 2, 3,
4 and 5 (including the information concerning the Share Purchase Agreement, the Lauro 57 Shareholders Agreement and the Amended
Lauro 57 Shareholders Agreement) is incorporated into this Item 6 by reference.”
