The following constitutes Amendment No. 3 to the Schedule 13D filed by the undersigned (the “Amendment No. 3”). This Amendment No. 3 amends the Schedule 13D as specifically set forth herein.
Item 3.
Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.
Item 3 is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:

The Shares purchased by Bandera Master Fund were purchased with working capital (which may, at any given time, include margin loans made by brokerage firms in the ordinary course of business) in open market purchases, except as otherwise noted. The aggregate purchase price of the 2,619,721 Shares owned directly by Bandera Master Fund is approximately $7,354,322.59, including brokerage commissions.

The Shares purchased by Mr. Gramm were purchased using personal funds.  The aggregate purchase price of the 10,000 Shares owned directly by Mr. Gramm is approximately $44,660.40, including brokerage commissions.

Item 4. Purpose of the Transaction
Item 4 is hereby amended to add the following:
On November 27, 2018, the Reporting Persons delivered a letter to the Issuer (the “Board Letter”) identifying Bandera’s concerns with respect to actions taken by the Issuer with respect to its investments and real estate holdings, and further describing Bandera’s Nominees. The foregoing summary of the Board Letter is not intended to be read as a complete reflection of the entire Board Letter and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Board Letter, a copy which is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.2 and incorporated in its entirety, by reference, in this Item 4.
Item 5.  Interest in Securities of the Issuer.
Items 5(a)-5(c) are hereby amended and restated in their entirety as follows:
(a) The aggregate percentage of Shares reported owned by each person named herein is based upon 29,550,002 shares of Common Stock outstanding, which is the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding as of November 7, 2018 as reported in the Issuer’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on November 16, 2018.
As of the date hereof, Bandera Master Fund beneficially owned 2,619,721 Shares, constituting approximately 8.9% of the Shares outstanding. By virtue of their respective relationships with Bandera Master Fund discussed in further detail in Item 2, each of Bandera Partners, Mr. Bylinsky and Mr. Gramm may be deemed to beneficially own the Shares owned directly by the Master Fund.
As of the date hereof, Mr. Gramm beneficially and directly owned 10,000 Shares, constituting less than 1% of the Shares outstanding.
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 the beneficial owner of the Shares directly owned by the other Reporting Persons. Each Reporting Person disclaims beneficial ownership of such Shares except to the extent of his or its pecuniary interest therein.
(b) Bandera Partners may be deemed to have the sole power to vote and dispose of the 2,619,721 Shares directly owned by Bandera Master Fund. As Managing Partners, Managing Directors and Portfolio Managers of Bandera Partners, each of Messrs Bylinsky and Gramm may be deemed to have the shared power to vote and dispose of the Shares directly owned by Bandera Master Fund.
Mr. Gramm has the sole power to vote and dispose of the 10,000 Shares owned directly by him.
(c) Except as set forth on Schedule 1 hereto, none of the Reporting Persons have entered into any transactions in the Shares during the past sixty days.

Item 7.  Material to be Filed as Exhibits
 
Item 7 of the Schedule 13D is amended by adding the following:


Exhibit 99.2 –
