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

Item 4. Purpose of Transaction.

Item 4 is hereby amended to add the following:

Raging Capital is pleased with the improved governance and operating progress of the Issuer, including significant cost cuts and improved efficiencies. Under the leadership of an almost entirely new Board, the Issuer is focused on attractive growth opportunities in mobile, gaming and automotive markets and has transitioned to a largely recurring revenue business model. Raging Capital’s recent stock sales were due to internal portfolio rebalancing needs and do not reflect any change in our optimism about the Issuer’s prospects.

Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer .

Items 5(a) - (c) are hereby amended and restated to read as follows:

(a) The aggregate percentage of Shares reported owned by each person named herein is based upon 26,894,116 Shares outstanding as of July 31, 2020, which is the total number of Shares outstanding as reported in the Issuer’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on August 7, 2020.

As of the close of business on the date hereof, each of Raging Capital and William C. Martin may be deemed to beneficially own the 4,109,817 Shares, constituting approximately 15.3% of the Shares outstanding, held by Raging Master by virtue of their relationships with Raging Master discussed in further detail in Item 2.

As of the close of business on the date hereof, William C. Martin may be deemed to beneficially own an additional 32,030 Shares of restricted stock (18,543 Shares of which are unvested), which, together with the 4,109,817 Shares held by Raging Master that he may also be deemed to beneficially own, constitute approximately 15.4% of the Shares outstanding.

(b) Raging Capital and William C. Martin may be deemed to share the power to vote and dispose of the Shares held by Raging Master. Mr. Martin has the sole power to vote and dispose the Shares of vested restricted stock held by him and the sole power to vote the Shares of unvested restricted stock held by him.

(c) Schedule B annexed hereto lists all transactions by the Reporting Persons in the Shares since the filing of Amendment No. 12. All of such transactions were effected in the open market.
