*Includes 36,000 shares held by the Albert W. Ondis Declaration of Trust of which the reporting person is the sole trustee and 1,658 shares held in trust for a child of the reporting person for which the reporting person is trustee.
This Amendment No. 1 to Schedule 13D ("Amendment No. 1") relates to the Schedule 13D filed on April 18, 2016 (the "Original Schedule 13D") by (i) Albert W. Ondis Declaration of Trust, and (ii) Albert W. Ondis III, a citizen of the United States of America.
On May 1, 2017, the Issuer entered into a Stock Repurchase Agreement (the "Repurchase Agreement") with the trust established by the Albert W. Ondis Declaration of Trust dated December 4, 2003, as amended (the "Trust") to repurchase 826,305 of the Issuer's common stock (the "Shares") at a per share price of $13.60, for an aggregate purchase price of $11,237,748. The transaction was consummated on May 2, 2017. This Amendment No. 1 is being filed pursuant to Rule 13d-2(a) to reflect the material change in the Trust's ownership of the Issuer's common stock resulting from the sale of the Shares to the Issuer pursuant to the Repurchase Agreement.
For point of clarification, the Original Schedule 13D contained a scriveners error and incorrectly stated the amount of shares owned by the Trust as 826,305, instead of 862,305.
Capitalized terms used but not defined in this amendment shall have the meanings set forth in the Original Schedule 13D.
Except as specifically amended by this Amendment No. 1, the Original Schedule 13D is unchanged.
