If this statement is being filed to report the fact that as of the date hereof the reporting person has ceased to be the beneficial owner of more than 5 percent of the class of securities, check the following: [ X ]

 

 

 

 

1 “Percent of Class” is rounded to the nearest tenth and is based upon 14,051,149 Shares outstanding as of August 9, 2022, as reported in the Issuer’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended June 30, 2022, which was filed on August 11, 2022 (File No. 001-34761).

 

2The Reporting Person is a pooled investment vehicle formed for the benefit of a single family and certain "key employees" (as defined in Investment Advisers Act Rule 202(a)(11)(G)-1 (the "Family Office Rule")) of Kokino (as defined in Item 6). The Reporting Person is managed by its managing member, Piton Capital Management LLC ("PCM"). PCM is in turn managed by its managing member, Kokino. Additionally, Kokino is the trading manager of the Reporting Person, and in that capacity Kokino acts on behalf of the Reporting Person as an agent. Robert Averick, in his capacity as an employee of Kokino, manages the Reporting Person's investment in the shares of Common Stock reported in this Schedule 13G (the "Shares"). Mr. Averick owns an economic interest in the Reporting Person (which interest may be held directly and, from time to time, indirectly through PCM). PCM and Kokino are each a "family office" (as defined in the Family Office Rule) of the same family, and any voting power or investment power PCM, Kokino or Mr. Averick may hold over the Shares is ultimately attributed to the Reporting Person.
