CUSIP No. 21900C308Schedule 13D/APage 5 of 7 Pages

 

The following constitutes Amendment No. 9 to the Schedule 13D filed by the undersigned ("Amendment No. 9"). This Amendment No. 9 amends the Schedule 13D as specifically set forth herein.

 

Item 3. SOURCE AND AMOUNT OF FUNDS OR OTHER CONSIDERATION
   
Item 3 is hereby amended and supplemented by the addition of the following:
 
The information set forth in Item 4 below is incorporated by reference in its entirety into this Item 3.
   
Item 4. PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION
   
Item 4 is hereby amended and supplemented by the addition of the following:
   
On September 6, 2019, the Elliott Stockholders and the Issuer consummated the transactions under the Exchange Agreement disclosed in Amendment No. 8 of the Schedule 13D.
   
Item 5. INTEREST IN SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER
   
Items 5(a) and (e) are hereby amended and restated as follows:
   
(a) As of the date hereof, Elliott, Elliott International and EICA collectively may be deemed to beneficially own 1,207,512 shares of Common Stock, constituting approximately 4.99% of the shares of Common Stock outstanding calculated in accordance with the Ownership Limitation (as defined below).
 

See rows (11) and (13) of the cover pages to this Schedule 13D for the aggregate number of and percentages of the shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by each Reporting Person. The aggregate percentage of the shares of Common Stock reported owned by each person named herein is based upon 23,824,508 shares of Common Stock outstanding as of August 12, 2019 as reported in the Issuer's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended June 30, 2019, filed with the SEC on August 14, 2019.

 

Each of Elliott, Elliott International and EICA may be deemed to beneficially own shares of Common Stock underlying the Issuer's Series G Preferred Stock and Series E Preferred Stock. Such securities contain restrictions on conversion such that they may not be converted if the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued pursuant to such conversion would result in the holder beneficially owning (as determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the rules thereunder ("Section 13(d)")) in excess of 4.99% of all of the Common Stock outstanding at such time (the "Ownership Limitation"). Elliott, Elliott International and EICA each disclaims beneficial ownership of any and all shares of Common Stock issuable upon any conversion of such securities if such conversion would cause Elliott's, Elliott International's and EICA's aggregate beneficial ownership to exceed or remain above the Ownership Limitation.

 
(e) September 6, 2019.
