This Amendment No. 1 to Form 8-A is being filed to amend the description of the rights (the “Rights”) to purchase shares of Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock, par value $0.0001, of the Company set forth under the heading “Preferred Share Purchase Rights” under Item 1 of the Original Form 8-A.

Item 1. Description of Registrant’s Securities to be Registered.

On September 5, 2024, the Company entered into Amendment No. 1 to Rights Agreement (the “Amendment”) with Equiniti Trust Company, LLC (f/k/a American Stock Transfer and Trust Company), as rights agent (the “Rights Agent”). The Amendment amends the Rights Agreement (the “Rights Agreement”), dated as of February 12, 2008, by and between the Company and the Rights Agent, to, among other things: (i) clarify the definitions of “Acquiring Person”, “Beneficial Owner”, “Beneficially Own”, “Beneficial Ownership” and “Exempt Person”, in Section 1 of the Rights Agreement; (ii) revise Section 33 of the Rights Agreement, entitled “Determination and Actions by the Board”; and (iii) add a new Section 35 of the Rights Agreement, entitled “Process to Seek Exemption”, setting forth express provisions by which a person may seek an exemption from the Rights Agreement with respect to a potential acquisition of shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, by such person.

The Rights and the Rights Agreement are described in the Original Form 8-A and such descriptions, as amended hereby, are incorporated by reference herein.  In addition, the Rights are in all respects subject to and governed by the provisions of the Rights Agreement, the Amendment, and the Certificate of Designation of Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock (the “Certificate of Designation”). Copies of the Rights Agreement, the Amendment, and the Certificate of Designation are filed as Exhibits 4.1, 4.2, and 3.1, respectively, and incorporated herein by reference.
