Amendment No. 3 to Schedule 13D

 

The following constitutes Amendment No. 3 (“Amendment No. 3”) to the Schedule 13D filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) by KORR Value, L.P. (“KORR Value”), KORR Acquisitions Group, Inc. (“KORR Acquisitions”), Kenneth Orr, David Orr and Jonathan Orr (collectively, the “Reporting Persons”) on March 31, 2021 (the “Original Schedule 13D”), as amended by Amendment No. 1 filed on June 30, 2021 (“Amendment No. 1”) and Amendment No. 2 filed on January 3, 2022 (“Amendment No. 2,” and together with Amendment No. 1 and the Original Schedule 13D, the “Schedule 13D”). This Amendment No. 3 amends and supplements the Schedule 13D as specifically set forth herein.

 

All capitalized terms contained herein but not otherwise defined shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Schedule 13D. Information given in response to each item shall be deemed incorporated by reference in all other items, as applicable.

 

ITEM 3.

SOURCE AND AMOUNT OF FUNDS OR OTHER CONSIDERATION

 

Item 3 of Schedule 13D is hereby amended and restated to read as follows:

 

The aggregate purchase price of the 1,226,100 shares of Common Stock directly held by KORR Value reported herein was approximately $5,451,241. Such shares of Common Stock directly held by KORR Value were purchased with the working capital of KORR Value.

 

The aggregate purchase price of the 82,782 shares of Common Stock and options to purchase 13,000 shares of Common Stock directly held by David Orr was approximately $457,260. Such shares of Common Stock and options to purchase shares of Common Stock were purchased with the personal funds of David Orr (including margin loans made by brokerage firms in the ordinary course of business).

 

The aggregate purchase price of the 91,102 shares of Common Stock directly held by Jonathan Orr was approximately $325,234. Such shares of Common Stock were purchased with the personal funds of Jonathan Orr.

 

All shares of Common Stock and options to purchase shares of Common Stock reported herein were purchased in open market transactions through brokers.

 

ITEM 4.

PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION

 

Item 4 of Schedule 13D is supplemented and superseded, as the case may be, as follows:

 

On January 18, 2022, KORR Value and the other Reporting Persons delivered a letter to the Issuer (the “January Books and Records Demand”) demanding, pursuant to Section 220 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, review and inspection of certain of the Issuer’s Books and Records (as defined therein) relating to, among other things, the recent charges levied against the Issuer and Andrew Murstein, the Issuer’s President and Chief Operating Officer, among others, and the complaint filed on December 29, 2021 by the Securities and Exchange Commission in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York in connection therewith.

 

The purpose of the January Books and Records Demand is to, among other thing, allow the Reporting Persons to gather information regarding potential mismanagement by the Issuer’s executives and/or members of the Board and, depending on the Reporting Persons’ review of the materials provided by the Issuer pursuant to the January Books and Records Demand, determine whether or not to commence litigation against the Issuer or certain members of the Board and/or management, and to otherwise assess the degree of change the Reporting Person’s believe is necessary at the Issuer.

 

 

ITEM 5.

INTEREST IN SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER

 

Item 5 of Schedule 13D is hereby amended and restated to read as follows:

 

(a) and (b) Items 7 through 11 and 13 of each of the cover pages of this Schedule 13D are incorporated herein by reference.

 

Such information is based on 25,078,944 shares of Common Stock of the Issuer outstanding as of November 5, 2021, as reported in the Issuer’s Form 10-Q filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on November 8, 2021.

 

As the general partner of KORR Value, KORR Acquisitions may be deemed to exercise voting and investment power over the 1,226,100 shares of Common Stock of the Issuer held directly by KORR Value and thus may be deemed to beneficially own such shares. In addition, as the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Investment Officer of KORR Acquisitions, Kenneth Orr may be deemed to exercise voting and investment power over the 1,226,100 shares of Common Stock of the Issuer held directly by KORR Value and thus may be deemed to beneficially own such shares.

 

David Orr exercises voting and investment power over the 82,782 shares of Common Stock of the Issuer and the listed American-style call options to purchase 13,000 shares of Common Stock of the Issuer directly held by him.

 

Jonathan Orr exercises voting and investment power over the 91,102 shares of Common Stock of the Issuer directly held by him.

 

(c) Transactions by the Reporting Persons effected since the filing of Amendment No. 2 are set forth in Schedule A below and such information is incorporated herein by reference.

 

(d) The limited partners of KORR Value have the right to participate in the receipt of dividends from, or proceeds from the sale of, the shares of Common Stock held for the account of KORR Value in accordance with their respective limited partnership interests.

 

(e) Not applicable.

 

ITEM 6.

CONTRACTS, ARRANGEMENTS, UNDERSTANDINGS OR RELATIONSHIPS WITH RESPECT TO SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER

 

Item 6 of Schedule 13D is supplemented and superseded, as the case may be, as follows:

 

Previously, KORR Value purchased American-style put options referencing an aggregate of 51,800 shares of Common Stock, which have an exercise price of $7.50 per share of Common Stock and expire on February 18, 2022. As set forth on Schedule A, which is incorporated herein by reference, KORR Value sold these put options and, accordingly, no longer has any exposure to such options.

 

KORR Value holds American-style put options referencing an aggregate of 243,000 shares of Common Stock, which have an exercise price of $2.50 per share of Common Stock and expire on February 18, 2022, as set forth on Schedule A, which is incorporated herein by reference.
