The following constitutes Amendment No. 46 to the Schedule 13D filed by the undersigned (“Amendment No. 46”). This Amendment No. 46 amends the Schedule 13D as specifically set forth herein.

Item 2.

Identity and Background.

Item 2 is hereby amended to add the following:

In connection with the transfer of Shares from the Lion Fund II to the Lion Fund, as set forth in Schedule A attached hereto, the Lion Fund II no longer beneficially owns any Shares and shall cease to be a Reporting Person immediately upon the filing of this Amendment No. 46 to the Schedule 13D. The remaining Reporting Persons will continue filing statements on Schedule 13D with respect to their beneficial ownership of securities of the Issuer to the extent required by applicable law. Each of the remaining Reporting Persons is a party to the Joint Filing Agreement, as further described in Item 6.

Item 3.

Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.

Item 3 is hereby amended and supplemented as follows:

Subsequent to filing Amendment No. 45 to the Schedule 13D, the Lion Fund II acquired an aggregate of 1,889 Shares for an aggregate cost of $1,584,786. The Shares purchased by the Lion Fund II were purchased with its working capital in open market purchases. On June 8, 2022, the Lion Fund II transferred the 83,465 Shares beneficially owned by it to the Lion Fund, as set forth on Schedule A.

Item 5.

Interest in Securities of the Issuer.

Items 5(a)-(c) are hereby amended and restated to read as follows:

The aggregate percentage of Shares reported owned by the Reporting Persons is based upon 206,864 Shares outstanding, which is the total number of Shares outstanding as of May 3, 2022, as reported in the Issuer’s quarterly report on Form 10-Q filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 6, 2022.

As of the close of business on June 13, 2022, (i) the Lion Fund owned directly 120,036.7 Shares, constituting approximately 58.0% of the Shares outstanding; (ii) the Lion Fund II owned directly 0 Shares, constituting 0.0% of the Shares outstanding; (iii) BCC owned directly 25,663.1 Shares, and by virtue of its relationship with the Lion Fund, BCC may be deemed to beneficially own the 120,036.7 Shares owned directly by the Lion Fund, constituting approximately 70.4% of the Shares outstanding; and (iv) Mr. Biglari owned directly 0.1 Share, and by virtue of his relationship with the other Reporting Persons, Mr. Biglari may be deemed to beneficially own, and have the sole power to vote and dispose of, the 120,036.7 Shares owned directly by the Lion Fund and the 25,663.1 Shares owned directly by BCC, constituting approximately 70.4% of the Shares outstanding.

Schedule A annexed hereto lists all transactions in securities of the Issuer by the Reporting Persons during the past sixty days.

The filing of this Schedule 13D shall not be deemed an admission that any of the Reporting Persons is, for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, the beneficial owner of any Shares he or it does not directly own. Each of the Reporting Persons specifically disclaims beneficial ownership of the Shares reported herein that he or it does not directly own.
