*Item 4. Purpose of Transaction*

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

As previously disclosed, in December 2015 and January and February 2016, the Reporting Persons acquired the Issuer’s 7.75% senior notes due 2019 with an aggregate cost of $6,040,323 (excluding accrued interest) (the “ Notes ”). The Reporting Persons acquired the Notes for investment purposes because it believed that they represented an attractive investment opportunity and because they intended to pursue a concerned shareholder campaign in respect of the Issuer.

In addition to the Notes acquired by the Reporting Persons, Raging River Capital 2 LLC (“RC 2 LLC”), a Delaware limited liability company established solely as an investment vehicle for Notes of the Issuer, acquired in December 2015 and February 2016, the Issuer’s 7.75% senior notes due 2019 with an aggregate cost of $2,873,737 (excluding accrued interest) (the “ Additional Notes ”). RC 2 LLC does not own any securities of the Issuer other than the Additional Notes.
