Item 4. Purpose of Transaction

Item 4 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended by adding the following at the end of Item 4 of the Schedule 13D:

“ On May 30, 2013, the Issuer, Old Town and the other selling stockholders named therein (the “ Selling Stockholders ” ) entered into an underwriting agreement (the “ May Underwriting Agreement ” ) with Merrill, Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated and Citigroup Global Markets Inc. (the “ May Underwriters ” ), with respect to an offering of Issuer Common Stock at a price to the public of $7.73 per share of Issuer Common Stock.

The foregoing description of the May Underwriting Agreement and the May Lock-up Agreement do not purport to be a complete description of the terms thereof and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of the May Underwriting Agreement (filed as Exhibit 2 hereto) and the May Lock-up Agreement (Exhibit B-2 of the Underwriting Agreement filed as Exhibit 2 hereto).

CUSIP No. 388689 101 SCHEDULE 13D Page 5 of 10

On August 7, 2013, the Issuer, Old Town and the other selling stockholders listed as party thereto (together with Old Town, the “Selling Stockholders”) entered into an underwriting agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) with Citigroup Global Markets Inc. and Deutsche Bank Securities Inc., with respect to an offering of Issuer Common Stock by the Selling Stockholders, at a price to the public of $8.45 per share of Issuer Common Stock. Pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement, on August 13, 2013, Old Town sold 3,750,000 shares of Issuer Common Stock. Reference is made to the registration statement on Form S-3 filed by the Issuer with the Securities and Exchange Commission (Registration No. 333-176606).

Concurrently with the execution of the Underwriting Agreement, the Selling Stockholders agreed to a lock-up agreement with the Underwriters (the “Lock-up Agreement”). Pursuant to the Lock-up Agreement, each Selling Stockholder agreed that, for a period of 45 days from the date of the Underwriting Agreement, and subject to certain exceptions specified therein, it would not, directly or indirectly, (1) offer pledge, sell, contract to sell, sell any option or contract to purchase, purchase any option or contract to sell, grant any option, right or warrant for the sale of, or otherwise dispose of or transfer any shares of Issuer Common Stock or any securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for shares of Issuer Common Stock, whether now owned or hereafter acquired by such Selling Stockholder or with respect to which such Selling Stockholder has or hereafter acquires the power of disposition, or exercise any right with respect to the registration of any shares of Issuer Common Stock, under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or (2) enter into any swap or other agreement or any transaction that transfers, in whole or in part, directly or indirectly, the economic consequence of ownership of the shares of Issuer Common Stock, whether any such swap or transaction is to be settled by delivery of shares of Issuer Common Stock or other securities, in cash or otherwise.

The foregoing description of the Underwriting Agreement, Lock-up Agreement and Share Repurchase Agreement do not purport to be a complete description of the terms thereof and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of the Underwriting Agreement (filed as Exhibit 2 hereto), Lock-up Agreement (Exhibit B-2 of the Underwriting Agreement filed as Exhibit 2 hereto) and Share Repurchase Agreement (filed as Exhibit 3 hereto).”
