EXPLANATORY NOTE

This Amendment No. 15 (this “Amendment”) amends and supplements the Schedule 13D filed on June 21, 2021, as amended on June 25, 2021, July 27, 2021, August 16, 2021, October 5, 2021, November 4, 2022, July 21, 2023, July 31, 2023, August 7, 2023, November 14, 2023, February 2, 2024, February 26, 2024, June 13, 2024, October 23, 2024, and October 25, 2024 (as amended, the “Schedule 13D”), by the Reporting Persons relating to the Common Stock of the Issuer. Information reported in the Schedule 13D remains in effect except to the extent that it is amended, restated, or superseded by information contained in this Amendment. Capitalized terms used but not defined in this Amendment have the respective meanings set forth in the Schedule 13D.

Item 3.

Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.

Item 3 is amended and restated as follows:

All of the shares of Common Stock to which this Statement relates were purchased on behalf of the applicable Reporting Persons using the investment or personal capital of the Reporting Persons. Such shares of Common Stock are or may be held from time to time in margin accounts established with their respective brokers or banks, and a portion of the purchase price for the Common Stock may have been obtained through margin borrowing. Common Stock positions held in margin accounts may be pledged as collateral security for the repayment of debit balances in the margin accounts. The aggregate purchase price of the 1,886,950 shares of Common Stock acquired was approximately $8,338,986.58 (excluding commissions).

Item 4.

Purpose of Transaction.

Item 4 is amended and restated as follows:

The Reporting Persons purchased the shares of Common Stock for investment purposes, and such purchases have been made in the ordinary course of business of the Reporting Persons.

In pursuing such investment purposes, the Reporting Persons may further purchase, hold, vote, trade, dispose, or otherwise deal in the Common Stock at times, and in such manner, as they deem advisable to benefit from, among other things, (1) changes in the market prices of the shares of Common Stock; (2) changes in the Issuer’s operations, business strategy, or prospects; or (3) from the sale or merger of the Issuer. To evaluate such alternatives, the Reporting Persons will closely monitor the Issuer’s operations, prospects, business development, management, competitive and strategic matters, capital structure, and prevailing market conditions, as well as other economic, securities markets, and investment considerations. Consistent with their investment research methods and evaluation criteria, the Reporting Persons have in the past discussed, and may in the future discuss, such matters with the management or Board of Directors of the Issuer (the “Board”), other stockholders, industry analysts, existing or potential strategic partners or competitors, investment and financing professionals, sources of credit, and other investors. Such evaluations and discussions may materially affect, and result in, among other things, the Reporting Persons (1) modifying their ownership of the Common Stock; (2) exchanging information with the Issuer pursuant to appropriate confidentiality or similar agreements; (3) proposing changes in the Issuer’s operations, governance, or capitalization; (4) initiating or pursuing a transaction that would result in the Reporting Persons’ acquisition of all or a controlling interest in the Issuer; or (5) pursuing one or more of the other actions described in subsections (a) through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D.

In addition to the information disclosed in this Statement, the Reporting Persons reserve the right to (1) formulate other plans and proposals; (2) take any actions with respect to their investment in the Issuer, including any or all of the actions set forth in subsections (a) through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D; and (3) acquire additional shares of Common Stock or dispose of some or all of the shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by them, in each case in the open market, through privately negotiated transactions, or otherwise.

Page 10 of 13

The Reporting Persons believe that change is needed at the Issuer with respect to corporate governance practices and the composition of the Issuer’s board of directors. In support of this belief, the Reporting Persons previously expressed an interest to the issuer in obtaining additional governance rights commensurate with its current ownership. On October 29, 2024, the Reporting Persons held a telephonic meeting with certain directors of the Issuer, sent a letter to the Issuer’s board of directors regarding the foregoing, and requested the resignation of certain directors as well as governance rights commensurate with the Reporting Person’s beneficial ownership of Common Stock. The Reporting Persons and the Issuer have yet to reach an agreement with respect to the foregoing. The Reporting Persons may at any time reconsider and change their plans or proposals relating to the foregoing, including by nominating directors for election at the Issuer’s 2025 annual meeting of stockholders.

Item 5.

Interest in Securities of the Issuer.

Item 5 is amended and restated as follows:

(a)

and (b) The responses of the Reporting Persons to rows 7, 8, 9, 10, 11 and 13 on the cover pages of this Statement are incorporated herein by reference. As of 4:00 p.m., Eastern time, on October 31, 2024, the Reporting Persons beneficially owned 1,866,950 shares of Common Stock, representing approximately 24.84% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock. The percentage in this paragraph relating to beneficial ownership of Common Stock is based on 7,597,819 shares of Common Stock outstanding as of October 10, 2024, as reported in the Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended August 31, 2024, of the Issuer.

Each Reporting Person, as a member of a “group” with the other Reporting Persons for the purposes of Section 13(d)(3) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, may be deemed to be the beneficial owner of the shares of Common Stock directly owned by the other Reporting Persons. Each Reporting Person disclaims beneficial ownership of such shares except to the extent of his, her or its pecuniary interest therein.

(c)

Except as set forth in Schedule A, none of the Reporting Persons has effected any transactions in the Common Stock in the 60 days prior to the date of this Statement.

(d)

No other person is known to the Reporting Persons to have the right to receive or the power to direct the receipt of dividends from, or the proceeds from the sale of, the shares of Common Stock covered by this Statement.

(e)

Not applicable.
