The following constitutes
Amendment No. 2 to the Schedule 13D filed by the undersigned (“Amendment No. 2”). This Amendment No. 2 amends the Schedule
13D as specifically set forth herein.
Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.
Item

The shares of Common
Stock purchased by MIG Master 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). The aggregate purchase price of the 32,550,307 shares of Common Stock beneficially
owned by MIG Master Fund is approximately $100,648,069, including brokerage commissions.
Item 4. Purpose of Transaction.
Item 4 is hereby amended to add the following:
MIG Capital is encouraged
by recent developments at the Issuer, including the leadership and strategy changes and the cost optimization efforts that are
underway. Given these positive developments, MIG Capital has determined not to extend Richard P. Merage’s status as an advisor
to the Board of Directors beyond April 30, 2020 in accordance with the terms of the Agreement (as defined and described in Amendment
No. 1 to the Schedule 13D).
Item 5. Interest in Securities of
the Issuer.
Items
5(a) – (c) are hereby amended and restated to read as follows:
(a) The
aggregate percentage of shares of Common Stock reported owned by each person named herein is based upon 567,890,340 shares of Common
Stock outstanding as of April 15, 2020, which is the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding as reported in the Issuer’s
preliminary proxy statement on Schedule 14A filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 17, 2020.
As
of the date hereof, MIG Master Fund directly beneficially owned 32,550,307 shares of Common Stock, constituting approximately 5.7%
of the outstanding shares of Common Stock. MIG Advisors, as the general partner of MIG Master Fund, may be deemed to beneficially
own the 32,550,307 shares of Common Stock owned by MIG Master Fund, constituting approximately 5.7% of the outstanding shares of
Common Stock. MIG Capital, as the investment manager of MIG Master Fund, may be deemed to beneficially own the 32,550,307 shares
of Common Stock owned by MIG Master Fund, constituting approximately 5.7% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock. Mr. Merage,
as the Chief Executive Officer and Manager of each of MIG Advisors and MIG Capital, may be deemed to beneficially own the 32,550,307
shares of Common Stock owned by MIG Master Fund, constituting approximately 5.7% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock.
The
filing of this Schedule 13D shall not be deemed an admission that the Reporting Persons are, for purposes of Section 13(d) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, the beneficial owners of any securities of the Issuer he or it does not directly own.
Each of the Reporting Persons specifically disclaims beneficial ownership of the securities reported herein that he or it does
not directly own.
(b) By
virtue of their respective relationships to MIG Master Fund, each of MIG Master Fund, MIG Advisors, MIG Capital and Mr. Merage
may be deemed to share the power to vote and dispose of the shares of Common Stock directly owned by MIG Master Fund.
(c) The
transactions in the securities of the Issuer by the Reporting Persons during the past 60 days are set forth in Schedule A annexed
hereto and are incorporated herein by reference. All of such transactions were effected in the open market.
