Item 3.
Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.
 
The Shares owned by Nokomis Master 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 4,008,736 Shares owned by Nokomis Master is approximately $25,785,767, including brokerage commissions.
 
Item 4.
Purpose of Transaction.
 
The Reporting Persons purchased the Shares based on the Reporting Persons’ belief that the Shares, when purchased, were undervalued and represented an attractive investment opportunity.  Depending upon overall market conditions, other investment opportunities available to the Reporting Persons, and the availability of Shares at prices that would make the purchase or sale of Shares desirable, the Reporting Persons may endeavor to increase or decrease their position in the Issuer through, among other things, the purchase or sale of Shares on the open market or in private transactions or otherwise, on such terms and at such times as the Reporting Persons may deem advisable.
 
The Reporting Persons have engaged, and intend to continue to engage, in discussions with the Issuer’s management and board of directors (the “Board”) regarding the composition of the Board and means to enhance stockholder value including expense and capital allocation. Last year, the Reporting Persons entered into an agreement with the Issuer with respect to certain matters related to the 2015 annual meeting of stockholders. The standstill provisions of such agreement expired at 11:59 p.m., Pacific Time, on August 9, 2016.
 
No Reporting Person has any present plan or proposal which would relate to or result in any of the matters set forth in subparagraphs (a) - (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D except as set forth herein or such as would occur upon or in connection with completion of, or following, any of the actions discussed herein.  The Reporting Persons intend to review their investment in the Issuer on a continuing basis.  Depending on various factors including, without limitation, the Issuer’s financial position and investment strategy, the price levels of the Shares, conditions in the securities markets and general economic and industry conditions, the Reporting Persons may in the future take such actions with respect to their investment in the Issuer as they deem appropriate including, without limitation, engaging in communications with management and the Board of the Issuer, engaging in discussions with stockholders of the Issuer and others about the Issuer and the Reporting Persons’ investment, making proposals to the Issuer concerning changes to the capitalization, ownership structure, board structure (including board composition) or operations of the Issuer, purchasing additional Shares, selling some or all of their Shares, engaging in short selling of or any hedging or similar transaction with respect to the Shares, or changing their intention with respect to any and all matters referred to in Item 4.

Item 5.
Interest in Securities of the Issuer.
 
(a)           The aggregate percentage of Shares reported owned by each person named herein is based upon 42,551,408 Shares outstanding as of March 31, 2016, 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 May 9, 2016.
 
As of the close of business on August 11, 2016, Nokomis Master beneficially owned 4,008,736 Shares, constituting approximately 9.4% of the Shares outstanding.  Each of Nokomis Partners and Nokomis Offshore, as feeder funds of Nokomis Master, may be deemed to beneficially own the 4,008,736 Shares owned by Nokomis Master, constituting approximately 9.4% of the Shares outstanding. Nokomis Advisors, as the general partner of Nokomis Master, may be deemed to beneficially own the 4,008,736 Shares owned by Nokomis Master, constituting approximately 9.4% of the Shares outstanding. Nokomis Capital, as the investment manager of Nokomis Master, may be deemed to beneficially own the 4,008,736 Shares owned by Nokomis Master, constituting approximately 9.4% of the Shares outstanding.  Mr. Hendrickson, as the manager of Nokomis Capital, may be deemed to beneficially own the 4,008,736 Shares owned by Nokomis Master, constituting approximately 9.4% 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.
 
Each of the Funds and Nokomis Advisors disclaim beneficial ownership of the securities that they hold due to the fact that they have fully delegated investment and voting discretion to Nokomis Capital and cannot rescind such delegation within the timeframe contemplated by Rule 13(d)-3. 
 
(b)           By virtue of their respective positions with Nokomis Master, each of Nokomis Partners, Nokomis Offshore, Nokomis Advisors, Nokomis Capital and Mr. Hendrickson may be deemed to have shared power to vote and dispose of the Shares reported owned by Nokomis Master.
 
(c)           There have been no transactions in the securities of the Issuer during the past sixty days by the Reporting Persons.
 
(d)           No person other than the Reporting Persons is known to have the right to receive, or the power to direct the receipt of dividends from, or proceeds from the sale of, the Shares.
 
(e)           Not applicable.
 
Item 6.
Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships With Respect to Securities of the Issuer.
 
On August 11, 2016, the Reporting Persons entered into a Joint Filing Agreement in which the Reporting Persons agreed to the joint filing on behalf of each of them of statements on Schedule 13D with respect to the securities of the Issuer to the extent required by applicable law.  The Joint Filing Agreement is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
 
Other than as described herein, there are no contracts, arrangements, understandings or relationships among the Reporting Persons, or between the Reporting Persons and any other person, with respect to the securities of the Issuer.
