Item 4.
|
Purpose of Transaction.
|
Item 4 is hereby amended
to add the following:
Firefly Value Partners
and certain of its affiliates (collectively, “Firefly”) have had a significant investment in the Issuer since 2013.
Firefly is not typically an activist investor and, outside of the Issuer, Firefly has never formally nominated a slate of director
candidates at a company in its portfolio. But the Issuer is different: although the Issuer has fantastic, best-in-class assets
and opportunities; shareholders have suffered at the hands of a Board that has consistently failed to adopt a coherent capital
allocation approach, focus on the Issuer’s core asset base or respond adequately to shareholder input. The Board has repeatedly
refused to substantially engage with Firefly on these and other critical matters, leaving Firefly convinced that truly changing
the direction at the Issuer will require changing the Board. Firefly believes it has been left with no choice except to nominate
independent candidates for shareholder consideration.
Accordingly, on March
2, 2020, FVP Master Fund delivered a letter to the Issuer (the “Nomination Letter”) with respect to the nomination
of Ryan Heslop and Samantha Holroyd (the “Nominees”) for election to the Board at the Issuer’s 2020 annual meeting
of shareholders (the “Annual Meeting”). On the same date, Firefly also issued an open letter to shareholders regarding
the nomination and a corresponding press release, the full text of which press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is
incorporated herein by reference.
The Reporting Persons
believe that the Nominees have the experience and shareholder perspective needed to restore confidence and drive value creation
at the Issuer, as evidenced by their biographies below.
Ryan Heslop,
age 42, is a Co-Founder and Co-Portfolio Manager at Firefly Value Partners, an investment partnership focused on fundamental primary
research and business analysis, since 2006. Mr. Heslop’s role at Firefly Value Partners includes allocating the firm’s
capital to long-term value investment opportunities across industries, and he often works with management teams to provide long-term
stockholder views and improve capital allocation decisions. Previously, Mr. Heslop worked as an analyst at Elm Ridge Capital Management
LLC, a financial services company, from 2004 to 2006, as an associate in equity research at Fidelity Investments Inc., a financial
services company, from 2000 to 2002, and as an investment associate at Putnam Investments, a privately owned investment management
firm, from 1999 to 2000. Mr. Heslop graduated magna cum laude from Harvard University with a Bachelor of Arts degree in Economics
and received a Master of Business Administration with distinction from the Kellogg School of Management at Northwestern University,
where he was presented with the Top Student in Finance Award.
Samantha Holroyd,
age 51, has worked as an independent consultant to the oil and gas industry since February 2020. Previously, Ms. Holroyd served
as a Managing Director at Lantana Energy Advisors, an energy divestiture and advisory firm, which is a division of SunTrust Robinson
Humphrey, Inc., the corporate and investment banking arm of Truist Financial Corporation (NYSE: TFC), a bank holding company, from
February 2018 to February 2020. Prior to that, she served as a Managing Director at TPG Sixth Street Partners, a global finance
and investment firm, from September 2016 to January 2018, and as Technical Director at Denham Capital Management LP, an energy
and resources-focused global private equity firm, from October 2011 to September 2016. Additionally, Ms. Holroyd served as Global
Reserves Audit Manager and Business Opportunity Manager at Royal Dutch Shell PLC (NYSE: RDS.A; OTCMKTS: RYDAF), an oil and gas
company, from January 2009 to October 2011, Vice President of EIG Global Energy Partners, a provider of institutional capital to
the global energy industry, from January 2006 to January 2009, and Vice President of Ryder Scott Company, a petroleum consulting
firm, from 1998 to 2006. Earlier in her career, Ms. Holroyd served as a Senior Reservoir Engineer with Tenneco Ventures Corporation,
which was an oil and gas exploration, production and financing company, from 1994 to 1998, and as a Reservoir Engineer with Atlantic
Richfield Company (formerly NYSE: ARC), an oil and gas company, from 1991 to 1994. Ms. Holroyd was honored as one of the “25
Influential Women in Energy” for 2020 by Oil and Gas Investor and Hart Energy. Ms. Holroyd received her Bachelor of Science
degree in Petroleum Engineering from the Colorado School of Mines and is a Registered Professional Engineer in the State of Texas.

to add the following:
On March 2, 2020,

in which, among other things, (i) the Reporting Persons agreed to jointly file a statement on Schedule 13D, and any amendments

On March 2, 2020,

Firefly has agreed to indemnify her against certain claims arising from the solicitation of proxies from the Issuer’s shareholders
