Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.

The aggregate purchase price of the 2,848,189 Shares owned by DSC MF is $17,864,641 including brokerage commissions. The Shares owned by DSC MF were acquired with DSC MF’s available funds.

Item 4. Purpose of Transaction.

The Reporting Persons purchased the Shares based on the Reporting Persons’ belief that the Shares, when purchased, were undervalued and represented an attractive investment opportunity. Depending upon various factors, including overall market conditions, other investment opportunities available to the Reporting Persons, and the availability of Shares at prices that would make the purchase of additional Shares desirable, the Reporting Persons may or may not endeavor to increase their position in the Issuer through, among other things, the purchase of Shares on the open market or in private transactions or otherwise, on such terms and at such times as the Reporting Persons may deem advisable. The Reporting Persons, if they so elect, may from time to time engage in transactions for the purpose of hedging some or all of their positions in the Shares.

The Reporting Persons intend to review their investments in the Issuer on a continuing basis and depending on various factors the Reporting Persons may deem relevant to their investment decision, including, without limitation, the Issuer’s financial position and strategic direction, the price levels of the Shares, conditions in the securities markets and general economic and industry conditions, the Reporting Persons may decide to sell some or all of their Shares, or to continue to hold their existing position in the Shares for investment.

Mr. Bluhm and other individuals associated with the Reporting Persons and the Associated Persons (as defined below) have had direct communications with the Issuer’s chief executive officer and with its chairman of the Board of Directors and in connection therewith, they have expressed their interest in the Issuer effecting a change in its Board of Directors and conveyed their intention to recommend candidates for the Board to nominate for election as director at the 2015 annual meeting shareholders. In addition, depending upon the factors mentioned above and other factors the Reporting Persons may deem relevant, the Reporting Persons may in the future take such other actions with respect to their investment in the Issuer as they deem appropriate including, without limitation, engaging in discussions with management and/or the Board of Directors of the Issuer concerning the business, operations and strategic direction of the Issuer, communicating with other shareholders of the Issuer, or changing their intention with respect to any and all matters referred to in this Item 4.

Except as set forth herein or such as would occur upon completion of any of the actions discussed above, no Reporting Person has any present plan or proposal which would relate to or result in any of the matters set forth in subparagraphs (a) through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D.

As a result of their association with each other and the circumstances relating to their respective investment in the Issuer under which they have coordinated their purchases of Shares and developed their investment strategy with respect to such investment, the Reporting Persons and Cloud Gate Capital Master Fund LP and certain persons affiliated or associated with it (the “Associated Persons”) may be deemed to constitute a group within the meaning of section 13(d)(3) of the Act. The Associated Persons have concurrently filed a Schedule 13D reporting aggregate beneficial ownership of 1,339,993 shares of Common Stock, representing 2.0% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock. The Reporting Persons and the Associated Persons as a group beneficially own 4,188,182 shares of Common Stock, which represent approximately 6.1% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock (calculated in accordance with Rule 13d-3). Neither the filing of this Schedule 13D nor any of its contents shall be deemed to constitute an admission that any of the Reporting Persons is, for any other purpose, the beneficial owner of any of the shares of Common Stock and each of the Reporting Persons disclaims beneficial ownership as to the shares of Common Stock reported herein or held by any other person for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Act, except to the extent of his or its pecuniary interests therein.
