This Amendment reports the rescission on October 29, 2020 of (a) the purchase of the 82.5 shares of Series H Stock on August 19, 2020 by Strome Alpha Fund, L.P. (the "Alpha Fund") and (b) the purchase of the 412.5 shares of Series H Stock on August 20, 2020 by Strome Mezzanine Fund, LP (collectively with the Alpha Fund, the "Funds"), each of which was reported in the original Form 4. The purchases of the reported Series H Stock (the "Rescinded Stock") were rescinded by the mutual agreement of the issuer and the Funds for the purpose of resolving certain disputes that had arisen between the issuer and the Reporting Persons (as defined below) in connection with the original transactions. Pursuant to the rescission agreement among the parties, the purchases of the Rescinded Stock have been deemed null and void ab initio by the issuer as if the original transaction documents were never entered into by the Funds and the purchases of the Rescinded Stock had never occurred. (Continued from Footnote 2) In connection with the rescission and voiding of these purchases, each Fund was refunded its original purchase price for the Rescinded Stock and surrendered the Rescinded Stock to the issuer for cancellation, as a result of which the issuer and each Reporting Person have been placed in the position it was in with respect to the ownership of the Rescinded Stock immediately prior to such transactions. The reported securities are owned directly by the Alpha Fund. The reported securities are owned directly by the Mezzanine Fund. Strome Investment Management, L.P. ("SIM") is the general partner of the Funds. Strome Group Inc. ("SG") is the general partner of SIM, and Mark E. Strome is the President and CEO of SG. Each of SIM, SG and Mr. Strome may be deemed to beneficially own the reported securities held by the Funds under Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act"), and hereby disclaims beneficial ownership of the reported securities for purposes of Section 16 of the Exchange Act, except the extent of its or his respective pecuniary interest in the reported securities. The Funds, SIM, SG and Mr. Strome are hereby referred to as the "Reporting Persons". Subject to the conversion limitation (described in note 8), the reported securities are convertible into common stock of the issuer at any time, and has no expiration date, but are subject to mandatory conversion on the fifth anniversary of the original issuance date. The reported securities are subject to a conversion limitation that prohibits the issuer from effecting a conversion of the reported securities into common stock if giving effect to the conversion would cause the holder to beneficially own (together with its affiliates or any "group" members) in excess of 4.99% of the common stock (or, upon notice by the holder, in excess of 9.99% of the common stock). As beneficial owners of more than 10% of the common stock, the Reporting Persons are effectively barred from converting the reported securities into additional shares of common stock. Absent this conversion limitation, the reported securities held by the Funds would be convertible into 1,500,000 shares of the issuer's common stock at the election of the Funds. /s/Mark E.
