Item 4.
Purpose of Transaction.
 
Item 4 is hereby amended to add the following:
 
All the shares of Common Stock reported herein were acquired for investment purposes. The Reporting Persons have reviewed on a continuing basis the investment in the Company. Based on such review and depending on the price and availability of the Company's securities, the Reporting Persons may acquire, or cause to be acquired, additional securities of the Company, in the open market or otherwise, dispose of, or caused to be disposed of, securities of the Company, in the open market or otherwise, at any time, or formulate other purposes, plans or proposals regarding the Company or any of its securities, to the extent deemed advisable in light of general investment objectives and policies of the Reporting Persons, the Company's business, financial condition and operating results, general market and industry conditions or other factors.
 
 
 

 
 
As part of the ongoing evaluation of this investment and investment alternatives, the Reporting Persons and their affiliates consider, among other things, the acquisition or disposition by any other persons of securities of the Company, or a proposed merger, reorganization, sale of substantially all assets or other extraordinary corporate transaction.
 
The Company has in connection with its 2015 Annual Meeting scheduled for May 29, 2015, solicited proxies for the adoption of the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of April 13, 2015, by and among the Company, Dover Saddlery Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("Buyer"), and Dover Saddlery Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Buyer (the "Merger Agreement").
 
The Reporting Persons believe that the Proxy Statement filed by the Company on May 4, 2015 (the “Proxy Statement”) provides comprehensive and sufficient disclosure of each of the matters unanimously approved by the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”) and requested to be voted in favor at the 2015 Annual Meeting, including the Merger Agreement. In particular, the Proxy Statement sets forth fulsome disclosure of the following:
 
 
·
the procedures followed by the Board to approve the merger contemplated by the Merger Agreement (the “Merger”);
 
 
·
the Support Agreement signed by certain officers and directors of the Company;
 
 
·
the cash consideration of $8.50 per share, which represents a premium of approximately 70% over the market price as of April 13, 2015, the last full trading day before the public announcement, and a premium of approximately 79% over the volume-weighted average share price of $4.75 over the six months ended April 13, 2015;
 
 
·
the appraisal rights of existing shareholders; and
 
 
·
the effect of failure to consummate the Merger, including potential termination fees under the Merger Agreement.
 
The Reporting Persons believe that consummation of the Merger is in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders and that the consideration to be paid to existing shareholders reflects fair value to existing shareholders. Accordingly, the Reporting Persons, being the second largest shareholder of the Company, support the Board’s determination to approve the Merger Agreement and the Proxy Statement and intend to vote in favor of the Merger.
