As previously reported in the Original Schedule 13D, until his death on October 21, 2013, the late Kenneth Stanley Adams, Jr. reported ownership of shares of Common Stock of the Issuer held by KSAI. Following the death of Kenneth Stanley Adams, Jr., the ownership of KSAI passed to various Reporting Persons in their individual capacities and in trust and subsequently passed to other Reporting Persons in connection with estate planning activities. Currently, 100% voting control of KSAI is held by the Reporting Persons. Certain Reporting Persons also acquired direct ownership of shares of Common Stock of the Issuer in addition to indirect ownership acquired through KSAI. Certain of the Reporting Persons and their representatives have served as directors of KSAI.

Following a review of their investments, including their ownership of the Common Stock of the Issuer, the Reporting Persons have decided to work together to pursue a potential sale of the Issuers Common Stock held by the Reporting Persons. The Reporting Persons generally intend to dispose of some or all of the shares of Common Stock of the Issuer beneficially owned by them in the open market, in privately negotiated transactions, through derivative transactions, through public offerings or otherwise, subject to market conditions, legal and regulatory requirements, and any contractual limitations. The Reporting Persons make no commitment in terms of completing any dispositions or the timing of any such dispositions, which will depend on market conditions including the price of shares of Common Stock, and on such other factors considered relevant to the Reporting Persons.

In addition, the Reporting Persons and their representatives and advisers expect to communicate with the Companys board of directors (Board), members of the Issuers management and/or other stockholders of the Issuer with respect to strategic, financial, operational or governance matters or otherwise work with management and the Board. Such communications may be with respect to the types of transactions discussed above or otherwise referred to in paragraphs (a) through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D, including a potential sale of the Issuers Common Stock held by the Reporting Persons to the Issuer and/or other transactions involving the Issuer.


The Reporting Persons intend to review their investment in the Issuer continually, and as may be appropriate from time to time, each of the Reporting Persons may consider the feasibility and advisability of various alternative courses of action with respect to such investment, including, without limitation: (a) the sale, transfer or other disposition of shares of Common Stock or other securities of the Issuer or of subsidiaries of the Issuer, or instruments convertible into or exercisable for any such securities (collectively, Issuer Securities) in public or private transactions; (b) cause Issuer Securities to be distributed in kind to its investors, members, limited partners or other equityholders; (c) the purchase or other acquisition of additional Issuer Securities, in the open market, in privately negotiated transactions, or otherwise; (d) pledging, hypothecating, imposing a lien on, using as a security interest or otherwise encumbering the Issuer Securities; (e) an extraordinary corporate transaction, such as a merger, reorganization or liquidation, involving the Issuer or any of its subsidiaries; (f) a sale or transfer of a material amount of assets of the Issuer or any of its subsidiaries; (g) changes in the present board of directors or management of the Issuer; (h) a material change in the present capitalization or dividend policy of the Issuer; (i) other material changes in the Issuers business or corporate structure; (j) changes in the Issuers certificate of incorporation or bylaws or other actions that may impede the acquisition of control of the Issuer by any person; (k) causing any class of the Issuers securities to be delisted from a national securities exchange or to cease to be authorized to be quoted in an inter-dealer quotation system of a registered national securities association; (l) causing a class of equity securities of the Issuer to become eligible for termination of registration pursuant to Section 12 of the Exchange Act; or (m) any action similar to those enumerated above.
