Capitalized terms used but not defined in this Amendment No. 1 shall have the meanings set forth in the Schedule 13D.
The Reporting Persons (as defined below) beneficially own an aggregate of 1,501,002 Shares (the “Subject Shares”). The Subject Shares represent approximately 5.8% of the issued and outstanding Shares based on 25,932,593 Shares outstanding as reported in the Issuer’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed on February 26, 2021.
ITEM 4. PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION

Item 4 is hereby amended and supplemented by adding the following information:

The information set forth in Item 6 is incorporated herein by reference.
ITEM 6. CONTRACTS, ARRANGEMENTS, UNDERSTANDINGS OR RELATIONSHIPS WITH RESPECT TO SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER
Item 6 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented by adding the following information:
On March 10, 2021, Hudson Executive Capital LP (“Hudson Executive”), on behalf of itself, its affiliates and its affiliated funds  entered into a Cooperation Agreement (the “Cooperation Agreement”) with the Issuer.

Pursuant to the Cooperation Agreement:

John Hass has been appointed to the Board of Directors of the Issuer (the “Board”) as a Class I director with a term expiring at the 2022 annual meeting of shareholders (the “2022 Annual Meeting”) and as a member of the Strategy Committee of the Board, and Hudson Executive and the Issuer will cooperate in good faith to agree, no later the 45 days from the date of the Cooperation Agreement, on an additional director (the “Second Director”) to be appointed to the Board as a Class III director with a term expiring at the 2021 annual meeting of shareholders (the “2021 Annual Meeting”) and as a member of at least one committee of the Board;

the Issuer will include the Second Director on the slate of nominees recommended by the Board in the Issuer’s proxy statement and proxy card relating to the 2021 Annual Meeting and support the election of the Second Director in a manner no less rigorous and favorable than the manner in which the Issuer supports any other nominees;

at any annual or special meeting of shareholders of the Issuer prior to the Expiration Date (as defined in the Cooperation Agreement), Hudson Executive has agreed to appear in person or by proxy at such meeting and to vote all shares of Common Stock over which Hudson Executive, its affiliates or associates has voting power (A) in favor of all directors nominated by the Board for election at any such meeting, (B) in accordance with the Board’s recommendations with respect to any proposal submitted to the shareholders of the Issuer; provided, that Hudson will be permitted to vote in its discretion on any extraordinary transaction; and

Hudson has agreed to refrain from taking certain actions with respect to the Issuer until the earlier of (i) December 31, 2021 and (ii) the date that is thirty (30) days prior to the deadline under the Bylaws for director nominations and shareholder proposals for the 2022 Annual Meeting.
The foregoing summary of the Cooperation Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the actual language of that agreement, a copy of which is filed herewith as Exhibit 3 and is incorporated herein by reference.
