The following constitutes Amendment No. 6 to the Schedule 13D filed by the undersigned (“Amendment No. 6”). This Amendment No. 6 amends the Schedule 13D as specifically set forth herein.

Item 4. Purpose of Transaction .

Item 4 is hereby amended to add the following:

On November 10, 2019, Engaged Capital and certain of its affiliates (collectively, “Engaged”) and the Issuer entered into a Cooperation Agreement (the “Cooperation Agreement”). Pursuant to the Cooperation Agreement, the Issuer’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) agreed to nominate Christina M. Alvord, Frank G. Heard and Elizabeth M. Lilly (collectively, the “New Directors”) for election to the Board as Class III directors alongside incumbent director Mark A. Pompa at the Issuer’s 2019 annual meeting of shareholders (the “2019 Annual Meeting”). Subject to their election at the 2019 Annual Meeting, the Issuer agreed to appoint Ms. Alvord to the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee of the Board, Mr. Heard to the Audit Committee of the Board and (iii) Ms. Lilly to the Compensation Committee of the Board. Provided that Engaged beneficially owns at least the lesser of (a) 3.5% of the outstanding Shares and (b) 929,410 Shares, the Issuer agreed that from the conclusion of the 2019 Annual Meeting until August 1, 2020 (the “Termination Date”), the size of the Board will not exceed ten members unless at least two-thirds of the directors then serving on the Board, including two New Directors, approve such increase.

Pursuant to the Cooperation Agreement, Engaged is subject to certain customary standstill restrictions from the date of the Cooperation Agreement until the Termination Date. Until the Termination Date, Engaged also agreed to vote all of the Shares beneficially owned by it (a) in favor of the nominees for director recommended by the Board, against the election of any nominee for director not approved, recommended and nominated by the Board and against any removal of any director of the Board, and (b) in accordance with the Board’s recommendation with respect to any other matter presented to shareholders of the Issuer; provided, however, that in the event that Institutional Shareholder Services Inc. (“ISS”) recommends otherwise with respect to any proposals under clause (b), Engaged will be permitted to vote in accordance with ISS’s recommendation; provided, further, that Engaged will be permitted to vote in its sole discretion with respect to any publicly announced proposals relating to an Extraordinary Transaction (as defined in the Cooperation Agreement). Until the Termination Date, Engaged also agreed not to acquire ownership of more than 9.9% of the outstanding Shares. Engaged and the Issuer further agreed to certain mutual non-disparagement and no litigation provisions until the Termination Date, subject to certain exceptions.

The foregoing description of the Cooperation Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Cooperation Agreement, which is attached as Exhibit 99.1 hereto and is incorporated herein by reference.

Item 6. Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships With Respect to Securities of the Issuer .

Item 6 is hereby amended to add the following:

On November 10, 2019, Engaged and the Issuer entered into the Cooperation Agreement as defined and described in Item 4 above and attached as Exhibit 99.1 hereto.
