* As more fully described in Item 6 of the original Schedule 13D
filed on August 10, 2020, the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Series E Preferred Stock and Series G Preferred
Stock are subject to an Ownership Limitation (as defined in Item 6) and the percentage set forth in row (11) gives effect to the
Ownership Limitation. However, rows (6), (8) and (9) show the number of shares of Common Stock that would be issuable upon the
conversion in full of the reported Series E Preferred Stock and Series G Preferred Stock and do not give effect to the Ownership
Limitation. Therefore, the actual number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by such Reporting Person, after giving effect
to the Ownership Limitation, is less than the number of securities reported in rows (6), (8) and (9).
CUSIP No. 21900C308 | Schedule 13D/A | Page 3 of 4 Pages |
The following constitutes Amendment No. 1 to the Schedule 13D filed by the undersigned ("Amendment No. 1"). This Amendment No. 1 amends the Schedule 13D as specifically set forth herein.
Item 3. | SOURCE AND AMOUNT OF FUNDS OR OTHER CONSIDERATION |
Item 3 is hereby amended and restated as follows: |
The aggregate purchase price of the shares of Common Stock reported herein is approximately $4,644,922.
The Reporting Person may effect purchases of the shares of Common Stock through margin accounts maintained for the Elliott Funds with prime brokers, which extend margin credit as and when required to open or carry positions in their margin accounts, subject to applicable federal margin regulations, stock exchange rules and such firms' credit policies. Positions in the shares of Common Stock may be held in margin accounts and may be pledged as collateral security for the repayment of debit balances in such accounts. Since other securities may be held in such margin accounts, it may not be possible to determine the amounts, if any, of margin used to purchase the shares of Common Stock. |
Item 4. | PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION |
Item 4 is hereby amended and supplemented by the addition of the following: |
The Reporting Person reduced the economic exposure of the Elliott Funds for portfolio management purposes. The Elliott Funds remain significant shareholders of the Issuer and own economic exposure to the Issuer equivalent to greater than 7 million shares of Common Stock through the Elliott Funds’ holdings of Common Stock and shares of Common Stock underlying the Series E Preferred Stock and Series G Preferred Stock as previously described in Item 6. The Reporting Person continues to have great confidence in the Issuer's leadership and operational trajectory. |
Item 5. | INTEREST IN SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER |
Item 5 is hereby amended and restated as follows: |
(a) See rows (11) and (13) of the cover page to this Schedule 13D for the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock and percentage of the shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Reporting Person. The aggregate percentage of Common Stock reported beneficially owned by the Reporting Person is based upon 32,132,492 shares of Common Stock outstanding as of November 4, 2020, as reported in the Issuer's Prospectus Supplement filed pursuant to Rule 424(b)(5) with the Securities and Exchange Commission on November 27, 2020. |
(b) See rows (7) through (10) of the cover page to this Schedule 13D for the number of shares of Common Stock as to which the Reporting Person has the sole or shared power to vote or direct the vote and sole or shared power to dispose or to direct the disposition. |
(c) The transactions in the shares of Common Stock effected on behalf of the Elliott Funds and/or their respective subsidiaries in the past sixty (60) days, which were all in the open market, are set forth on Schedule 1 attached hereto. |
(d) No persons other than the Elliott Funds and/or their respective subsidiaries and EIM have the right to receive or the power to direct the receipt of dividends from, or the proceeds from the sale of, the shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by EIM. |
