The following constitutes Amendment No. 3 to the Schedule 13D filed by the undersigned (“Amendment No. 3”). This Amendment No. 3 amends the Schedule 13D as specifically set forth herein.

Item 3 is hereby amended and restated to read as follows:

9,375,000 of the Shares beneficially owned directly by Engaged Capital Flagship Master, the aggregate cost for which was $93,750,000, were purchased with working capital, pursuant to the Forward Purchase Agreement (as previously defined and described in Item 4 of the Schedule 13D). 1,000,000 of the Shares beneficially owned directly by Engaged Capital Flagship Master, the aggregate cost for which was $10,000,000, were purchased with working capital, pursuant to the Subscription Agreement (as previously defined and described in Item 4 of the Schedule 13D). 125,000 of the Shares beneficially owned directly by Engaged Capital Flagship Master were acquired pursuant to the Distribution (as previously defined and described in Item 2 of Amendment No. 1 to the Schedule 13D). 1,951,018 of the Shares beneficially owned directly by Engaged Capital Flagship Master were acquired pursuant to the SilverBox Distribution (as defined in Amendment No. 2 to the Schedule 13D).

Mr. Welling has also been awarded certain restricted stock units (“RSUs”) under the Issuer's 2022 Omnibus Incentive Plan in connection with his service as a director of the Issuer, of which (i) 15,000 RSUs vest ratably one third on each anniversary of the May 2, 2022 grant date (the “May 2022 Grant Date”), (ii) 3,650 RSUs vest in equal quarterly installments until the first anniversary of the May 2022 Grant Date, 1,825 of which have vested as of the close of business on December 8, 2022, and (iii) 13,485 RSUs vest on the first anniversary of the May 2022 Grant Date. Each RSU represents a contingent right to receive one Share upon settlement for no consideration, which will be delivered to Mr. Welling following vesting.

Item 5.

Interest in Securities of the Issuer.

Items 5(a) and (c) are hereby amended and restated to read as follows:

(a) The aggregate percentage of Shares reported owned by each person named herein is based upon 54,554,593 Shares outstanding as of November 4, 2022, which is the total number of Shares outstanding as reported in the Issuer’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on November 10, 2022.

The filing of this Schedule 13D shall not be deemed an admission that the Reporting Persons are, for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act, the beneficial owners of any securities of the Issuer he or it does not directly own. Each of the Reporting Persons specifically disclaims beneficial ownership of the securities reported herein that he or it does not directly own.
