The following constitutes Amendment No. 1 to the Schedule 13D filed by the undersigned (“Amendment No. 1”). This Amendment No. 1 amends the Schedule 13D as specifically set forth herein.
Item 3.	SOURCE AND AMOUNT OF FUNDS OR OTHER CONSIDERATION.
Item 3 of the Schedule 13D is hereby and amended and restated in its entirety as follows:
The 1,831,007 Shares reported herein as beneficially owned by the Reporting Person were acquired at an aggregate purchase price of approximately $163.6 million.  Such Shares were acquired with investment funds in accounts managed by JANA and margin borrowings described in the following sentence. Such Shares are held by the investment funds managed by JANA in commingled margin accounts, which may extend margin credit to JANA from time to time, subject to applicable federal margin regulations, stock exchange rules and credit policies. In such instances, the positions held in the margin accounts are pledged as collateral security for the repayment of debit balances in the account. The margin accounts bear interest at a rate based upon the broker’s call rate from time to time in effect. Because other securities are held in the margin accounts, it is not possible to determine the amounts, if any, of margin used to purchase the Shares reported herein.
Item 4.	PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION.
Item 4 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented as follows:
On October 25, 2018, JANA entered into a confidentiality and standstill letter agreement (the “Confidentiality Agreement”) with the Issuer.  Under the Confidentiality Agreement, JANA agreed to maintain the confidentiality of certain business information to be furnished by the Issuer to JANA and to abide by customary standstill obligations, subject to certain exceptions.  The confidentiality and standstill obligations under the Confidentiality Agreement expire on December 14, 2018, unless earlier terminated as described in the Agreement.  The full text of the Confidentiality Agreement is included as Exhibit A to this Amendment No. 1 by reference to Exhibit 10.1 of the Issuer’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on October 26, 2018 (the “October 26, 2018 Form 8-K”) and is incorporated by reference herein.
Item 5.	INTEREST IN SECURITIES OF THE COMPANY.
Item 5(a)-(c) of the Schedule 13D is hereby and amended and restated in their entirety as follows:
(a) The aggregate percentage of Shares reported to be beneficially owned by the Reporting Person is based upon 27,255,503 Shares outstanding as of August 3, 2018, as reported in the Issuer’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended July 8, 2018 filed with the SEC on August 9, 2018.
As of the close of business on the date hereof, JANA may be deemed to beneficially own 1,831,007 Shares, representing approximately 6.7% of the Shares outstanding.
(b) JANA has sole voting and dispositive power over 1,831,007 Shares, which power is exercised by the Principal.
(c) Information concerning transactions in the Shares effected by the Reporting Person during the past sixty days is set forth in Exhibit B hereto and is incorporated herein by reference.  All of the transactions in Shares listed hereto were effected in the open market through various brokerage entities.

 

Item 6.	CONTRACTS, ARRANGEMENTS, UNDERSTANDINGS OR RELATIONSHIPS WITH RESPECT TO SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER.
Item 6 of the Schedule 13D is hereby and amended and restated in its entirety as follows:
On October 25, 2018, the Issuer and the Reporting Person entered into the Confidentiality Agreement.  A copy of such agreement is attached as Exhibit A to this Amendment No. 1 and is incorporated by reference herein.
Except as otherwise set forth herein, the Reporting Person has no contracts, arrangements, understandings or relationships with any person with respect to the securities of the Issuer.
Item 7.	MATERIAL TO BE FILED AS EXHIBITS.
Item 7 of the Schedule 13D is hereby and amended and restated in its entirety as follows:

Exhibit B:		Transactions in the Shares of the Issuer During the Last 60 Days.
