Except as amended in this Amendment No. 2, the 13D Filing remains in full force and effect. Terms defined in the 13D Filing are used in this Amendment No. 2 as so defined, unless otherwise defined in this Amendment No. 2.

Item 2. Identity and Background

The last sentence of Item 2(a) of the 13D Filing is hereby amended and restated as follows:

The Reporting Persons have entered into a joint filing agreement, dated as of March 15, 2019, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.3.

Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer

Item 5 of the 13D Filing is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:

(a) Aggregate number and percentage of securities .

The Reporting Persons, as a result of the relationships described in Item 2, may be deemed to directly or indirectly beneficially own the shares of Common Stock held by ASSF IV, which are reported on the cover pages to this Schedule 13D for such Reporting Persons, as applicable. See also items 11 and 13 of the cover pages to, and Item 2 of, this Schedule 13D for the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock and percentage of Common Stock beneficially owned by each of the Reporting Persons. The applicable ownership percentages reported in this Schedule 13D are based on 128,155,291 shares of Common Stock outstanding as of March 7, 2019, as reported by the Issuer on its Annual Report on Form 10-K filed on March 15, 2019.

(b) Power to vote and dispose. See items 7 through 10 of the cover pages to, and Item 2 of, this Schedule 13D for the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by each of the Reporting Persons as to which there is sole or shared power to vote or to direct the vote, and sole or shared power to dispose or to direct the disposition.

(e) Date ceased to be a 5% owner. Not applicable.

Item 6. Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships with Respect to Securities of the Issuer

Item 6 of the 13D Filing is hereby amended by adding the following immediately prior to the last paragraph thereof:

On March 14, 2019, the Issuer entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “ Merger Agreement ”) with HC Group Holdings II, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“ HC Group Holdings II ”) and certain other parties. The Merger Agreement provides for, among other things, the merger of a newly-formed subsidiary of the Issuer with and into HC Group Holdings II (the “ First Merger ”), and immediately following the First Merger, the merger of HC Group Holdings II with and into another newly-formed subsidiary of the Issuer (together with the First Merger, the “ Mergers ”).

In connection with the Merger Agreement, ASSF IV and an account managed by ASSF Operating Manager IV (the “ Managed Account ”) each entered into:

· a letter agreement with the Issuer (a “ Letter Agreement ”);

· the Amended and Restated Warrant Agreement, among the Issuer, ASSF IV, the Managed Account and the other holders signatory thereto (the “ Warrant Amendment ”); and

· an amendment to the Registration Rights Agreement, among the Issuer, ASSF IV, the Managed Account and the other holders signatory thereto (the “ RRA Amendment ”).

In addition, in connection with the Mergers, Ares Management LLC, on behalf of one or more affiliated funds, investment vehicles and/or managed accounts, and one of its subsidiaries, Ares Capital Management LLC, on behalf of one or more affiliated funds, investment vehicles and/or managed accounts (collectively, the “ Ares Parties ”), entered into certain debt financing commitments (the “ Debt Commitments ” and, together with the Letter Agreements, Warrant Amendment and RRA Amendment, the “ Transaction Documents ”).

Letter Agreements and Warrant Amendment

Under the terms of their respective Letter Agreements, each of ASSF IV and the Managed Account, as holders of the Warrants, and the Issuer have agreed to enter into the Warrant Amendment, conditioned upon the consummation of the First Merger. Under their respective Letter Agreements, in consideration of their execution and delivery of the Warrant Amendment, and conditioned upon the occurrence of the First Merger Effective Time (as defined in the Merger Agreement), the Issuer agrees to issue to ASSF IV and the Managed Account 1,012,226 and 337,408 shares, respectively, of Common Stock of the Issuer (the “ Amendment Shares ”), promptly following the occurrence of the First Merger Effective Time. Each of ASSF IV and the Managed Account agrees, pursuant to the terms of their respective Letter Agreements, not to sell their Warrants or exercise their exchange right under any Warrant prior to the earlier of the First Merger Effective Time or the termination of the Merger Agreement according to its terms.

The Warrant Amendment amends and restates the Warrant Agreement, in connection with, and conditioned upon, the consummation of the First Merger in accordance with the Merger Agreement. The Warrant Agreement is amended and restated so as to fix the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants at 8,287,317 shares. The number of shares of Common Stock issuable to ASSF IV and the Managed Account upon exercise of the Warrants following the effectiveness of the Warrant Amendment is fixed at 4,520,354 and 1,506,784, respectively. The Expiration Time and Exercise Price are unchanged from the Warrant Agreement. The Warrant Amendment has customary cash and cashless exercise provisions and anti-dilution provisions customary for a fixed-share warrant, including an anti-dilution adjustment in the event that the Issuer issues shares of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents (as defined in the Warrant Amendment) at an effective price per share less than the current market price of the Common Stock or the applicable exercise price of the Warrants, subject to certain exceptions. Other terms of the Warrant Agreement remain unchanged.

RRA Amendment

The RRA Amendment amends the Registration Rights Agreement to include the Amendment Shares under the definition of “Registrable Securities”, and to specify the date after which registration rights are available with respect to the Amendment Shares. Other terms of the Registration Rights Agreement remain unchanged. The effectiveness of the RRA Amendment is conditioned upon the consummation of the First Merger.

Debt Commitments

Bank of America, N.A., Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated, Ares Capital Management LLC, on behalf of one or more affiliated funds, investment vehicles and/or managed accounts, Broad Street Loan Partners III, L.P., Broad Street Loan Partners III Offshore, L.P., Broad Street Loan Partners III Offshore-Unlevered, L.P. and Broad Street Senior Credit Partners II, L.P. (collectively, the “ Lenders ”) provided a financing commitment letter dated March 14, 2019 (the “ Commitment Letter ”) to HC Group Holdings II pursuant to which the Lenders, subject to the terms and conditions in the Commitment Letter, committed an aggregate amount of up to $1,075 million toward senior secured credit facilities, consisting of a first lien term loan facility in an aggregate principal amount of up to $925 million and an asset-based revolving credit facility in an aggregate principal amount of up to $150 million, which will be used to fund a portion of the consideration payable in connection with the Mergers, to repay certain of the Issuer’s existing indebtedness and certain of HC Group Holdings II’s existing indebtedness, working capital and general corporate purposes and to pay fees and expenses associated with closing the financing of the Mergers.

Certain funds, investors, entities and accounts that are managed, sponsored or advised by Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC or its affiliates and the Ares Parties (collectively, the “ Investors ”), provided a financing commitment letter dated March 14, 2019 (the “ Notes Commitment Letter ”) to HC Group Holdings II pursuant to which the Investors, subject to the terms and conditions in the Notes Commitment Letter, committed to purchase $400 million of senior secured PIK toggle second lien floating rate notes (the “ Notes ”), the net proceeds of which will be used to fund a portion of the consideration payable in connection with the Mergers, to repay certain of the Issuer’s existing indebtedness and certain of HC Group Holdings II’s existing indebtedness and to pay fees and expenses associated with closing the financing of the Mergers.

The foregoing descriptions of the Transaction Documents do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of the Transaction Documents, copies of which are filed as Exhibits 5.1 through 5.5 of this Schedule 13D and are incorporated by reference in this Schedule 13D.
