Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer

Items 5(a), 5(b) and 5(c) of the Schedule 13D are amended to reflect the following:

(a) and (b). As of the date of this Amendment No. 3, each of the Reporting Persons beneficially owns shares of Common Stock in such
numbers as set forth on the cover pages of this Schedule 13D. The total number of shares each of the Reporting Persons beneficially owns represents such percentages of the Common Stock outstanding as set forth on the cover pages to this
Schedule 13D based upon the 19,703,865 shares of Common Stock outstanding as of April 28, 2017, as reported in the Issuers Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the Commission)
on May 9, 2017.

(b) By virtue of the relationships among the Reporting Persons, as described in this Schedule 13D, the Reporting
Persons may be deemed to be a group under the Federal securities laws. If the Reporting Persons were deemed to be such a group, such group would collectively beneficially own 2,466,310 shares of Common Stock or 12.52% of
Common Stock outstanding on the date of this Amendment No. 3. On June 8, 2017, such group would have collectively beneficially owned 2,621,957 shares of Common Stock or 13.31% of Common Stock outstanding, due to the Reporting Persons
having effected transactions in the Common Stock as reflected in Annex I hereto and in the Form 4s promptly filed with the Commission by the Reporting Persons in connection therewith. Each of the Reporting Persons disclaims voting and
investment power over shares of the Common Stock, except as set forth on the cover pages of this Schedule 13D.

(c) From April 8, 2017
to the date of this Amendment No. 3, the Reporting Persons effected the transactions in the Common Stock that are listed on Annex I hereto.

(e) As described above, the 1996 Childrens Trust and Ray Lindenbaum, during the period covered by the Schedule 13D and to date, did not
and do not beneficially own any shares of Common Stock and, therefore, should not have been included in the Schedule 13D as Lindenbaum Reporting Persons or Reporting Persons. The 1995 Childrens Trust has not beneficially owned shares of Common
Stock since December 18, 2015 and, therefore, ceased to be and should not have been a Lindenbaum Reporting Person or Reporting Person from and after December 18, 2015.
