Item 4. Ownership

 

All ownership information reported in this Item 4 is as of the close of business on December 31, 2015. As of December 31, 2015, the parent company of BPOF, BRCM and BRC had delegated to Mr. Riley the authority to vote and dispose of all securities owned by BPOF, BRCM and BRC. Accordingly, as of December 31, 2015, Mr. Riley was deemed to beneficially own the shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by BPOF, BRCM and BRC and such beneficial ownership is reflected in this Item 4 and elsewhere in this Schedule 13G. Effective February 9, 2016, such delegation of authority was revoked. Accordingly, Mr. Riley is no longer deemed to beneficially own the shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by BPOF, BRCM and BRC.

As of the close of business on December 31, 2015, Mr. Riley held 80,000 shares of Common Stock in his 401(k) plan. In addition, Mr. Riley may be deemed to beneficially own 80,000 shares of Common Stock held in his children’s custodial accounts of which he is the Custodian.

 

Accordingly, as of December 31, 2015, Mr. Riley was deemed to beneficially own an aggregate of 1,431,581 shares of Common Stock.

 

The foregoing should not be construed as an admission by any Reporting Person as to beneficial ownership of any shares of Common Stock owned by another Reporting Person. Each of the Reporting Persons disclaims beneficial ownership of the shares of Common Stock that are not directly owned by such Reporting Person.

 

(b) Percent of class:

 

The aggregate percentage of Shares reported owned by each Reporting Person is based upon 25,281,648 shares of Common Stock outstanding as of November 12, 2015, as reported in the Issuer’s Form 10-Q filed with the SEC on November 13, 2015.

As of the close of business on December 31, 2015, BPOF directly owned approximately 3.0% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock. BRCM, as the investment advisor and general partner of BPOF, may be deemed to beneficially own the approximately 3.0% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock directly owned by BPOF. Mr. Riley was deemed, as of December 31, 2015, to beneficially own the approximately 3.0% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by BRCM by virtue of his power to vote and dispose of such shares.

As of the close of business on December 31, 2015, the Robert Antin Children Trust directly owned less than 1% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock.
