CUSIP No. 817732100

Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.

The Shares purchased by Star Equity Fund were purchased with working capital (which may, at any given time, include margin loans made by brokerage firms in the ordinary course of business) in open market purchases, except as otherwise noted, as set forth in Schedule A, which is incorporated by reference herein. The aggregate purchase price of the 128,926 Shares beneficially owned by Star Equity Fund is approximately $1,535,944, excluding brokerage commissions.

Item 4. Purpose of Transaction.

On October 20, 2022, Star Equity Holdings privately presented the Issuer’s chief executive officer and Board of Directors (“Board”) with a preliminary, non-binding indication of interest (the “IOI”) to explore a potential combination of Star Equity Holdings and the Issuer, subject to the execution of a non-disclosure agreement and further due diligence.

On November 2, 2022, after refusing to even engage in conversations with Star Equity Holdings regarding details of a proposal, the Board responded to Star Equity Holdings that a transaction is not in the best interests of the Issuer’s shareholders.

On November 14, 2022, Star Equity Fund issued a press release (the “Nov. 14, 2022 Letter”) noting the Board’s rejection of Star Equity Holdings’ proposal without genuinely engaging, and strongly questioning the incumbent directors’ commitment to Issuer's shareholders. Star Equity Fund also asserted, the Board’s actions make clear that further change to the Board’s composition needs to occur. A copy of the Nov. 14, 2022 Letter is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.2 and is incorporated herein by reference.

The Reporting Persons purchased the Shares based on the Reporting Persons’ belief that the Shares, when purchased, were undervalued and represented an attractive investment opportunity. Depending upon overall market conditions, other investment opportunities available to the Reporting Persons, and the availability of Shares at prices that would make the purchase or sale of Shares desirable, the Reporting Persons may endeavor to increase or decrease their position in the Issuer through, among other things, the purchase or sale of Shares on the open market or in private transactions or otherwise, on such terms and at such times as the Reporting Persons may deem advisable.

The Reporting Persons have engaged, and may continue to engage, in general discussions with the Board and the Issuer's management team, including with respect to the composition of the Board, the Issuer’s corporate governance and evaluating all options to maximize shareholder value, including potential business combinations or strategic alternatives involving the Issuer or certain of the Issuer’s businesses or assets, including the potential combination proposed in the IOI.

No Reporting Person has any present plan or proposal which would relate to or result in any of the matters set forth in subparagraphs (a) - (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D except as set forth herein or such as would occur upon or in connection with completion of, or following, any of the actions discussed herein. The Reporting Persons intend to review their investment in the Issuer on a continuing basis. Depending on various factors including, without limitation, the Issuer's financial position and investment strategy, the price levels of the Shares, conditions in the securities markets and general economic and industry conditions, the Reporting Persons may in the future take such actions with respect to their investment in the Issuer as they deem appropriate including, without limitation, engaging in additional communications with management and the Board of the Issuer, engaging in discussions with shareholders of the Issuer and others about the Issuer and the Reporting Persons' investment, making proposals to the Issuer concerning changes to the capitalization, ownership structure, board structure (including Board composition) or operations of the Issuer, or potential business combinations or strategic alternatives involving the Issuer or certain of the Issuer’s businesses or assets, including transactions in which the Reporting Persons may seek to participate and potentially engage in (including with other third parties), purchasing additional Shares, selling some or all of their Shares, engaging in short selling of or

CUSIP No. 817732100

any hedging or similar transaction with respect to the Shares, or changing their intention with respect to any and all matters referred to in this Item 4.
