Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined in this Amendment shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Schedule 13D. Except as otherwise provided herein, each Item of the Schedule 13D remains unchanged. | ||
| Item 4. | Purpose of Transaction | |
Item 4 is hereby supplemented as follows:
On May 13, 2025, Silver Point Capital Fund, L.P., Silver Point Capital Offshore Master Fund, L.P., Silver Point Distressed Opportunities Fund, L.P., and Silver Point Distressed Opportunity Institutional Partners, L.P. (collectively, "Silver Point") sold an aggregate of 610,000 shares of Common Stock at a price per share of $194.84.
On May 13, 2025, the Issuer agreed to purchase an aggregate of 76,986 shares of Common Stock from Silver Point at a price of $194.84 per share.
The Reporting Persons do not have any current plan or proposal that relates to or would result in any transaction, event or action enumerated in paragraphs (a) through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D, except as otherwise described herein. | ||
| Item 5. | Interest in Securities of the Issuer | |
| (a) | The responses of the Reporting Persons to rows (7) through (13) of the cover pages of this Schedule 13D are incorporated herein by reference. The Reporting Persons currently beneficially own 3,690,252 shares, consisting of (a) 1,994,323 shares plus (b) 1,695,929 shares issuable upon the exercise of 23,743 shares of Preferred Stock.
As reported in the Issuer's Form 10-Q filed with the SEC on May 7, 2025, as of April 30, 2025, there were 17,765,743 shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding, and as of March 30, 2025, there were 32,887 shares of Preferred Stock issued and outstanding (which shares of Preferred Stock vote together on an as-converted basis with the Common Stock as a single class). Additionally, the Issuer repurchased 76,986 shares of Common Stock on May 13, 2025. Percent ownership calculations in this Schedule 13D are calculated by using (a) 17,765,743 shares of Common Stock minus (b) 76,986 shares of Common Stock repurchased by the Issuer plus (c) 1,695,929 shares of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of the 23,743 shares of Preferred Stock beneficially owned by the Reporting Persons. | |
