Item 4. Purpose of Transaction.


The Reporting Persons acquired their shares of Common Stock for investment purposes. The Reporting Persons purchased shares of Common Stock because they believed that the shares may present significant opportunities for realization of increased stockholder value.

 

The Reporting Persons plan to continuously evaluate, among other factors, the financial condition, results of operations, business and prospects of the Corporation, the securities markets in general and the market for the Common Stock in particular, prevailing economic conditions and expected trends, all with a view to determining whether to hold, decrease or increase their investment in the Common Stock, through open market, privately negotiated or any other transactions.

 

The Reporting Persons have engaged, and intend to continue to engage, in communications with the Corporation’s management team and Board of Directors (the “ Board ”) regarding means to enhance stockholder value. The Reporting Persons may also, from time to time, engage in discussions with the Corporation’s management team and Board to request a seat on the Board of the Corporation. The Reporting Persons intend to review their investment in the Corporation on an ongoing basis and may from time to time in the future formulate plans or proposals regarding the Corporation, its assets or its securities.

Depending on the foregoing factors, the Reporting Persons may, from time to time, modify their present intention as stated in this Item 4.

 

Except as set forth herein, the Reporting Persons have no specific present plans or proposals which would result in:

 

(a) the acquisition by any person of additional securities or the disposition of securities of the Corporation;

 

(b) an extraordinary corporate transaction, such as a merger, reorganization or liquidation, involving the Corporation or any of its subsidiaries;

 

(c) a sale or transfer of a material amount of assets of the Corporation or any of its subsidiaries;

(h) causing a class of securities of the Corporation to be delisted from a national securities exchange or to cease to be authorized to be quoted in an inter-dealer quotation system of a registered national securities association;

 

(i) a class of equity securities of the Corporation becoming eligible for termination of registration pursuant to Section 12(g)(4) of the Act; or

 

(j) any action similar to any of those enumerated above.

 

Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer.

 

(a) As of the date of this filing, the Reporting Persons beneficially own 724,504 shares (the “ Shares ”), or approximately 6.0%, of the outstanding Common Stock of the Corporation (calculated based on information included in the Form 10-Q filed by the Corporation for the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2018, which reported that 12,054,350 shares of Common Stock were outstanding as of August 10, 2018).
