ITEM 6. CONTRACTS, ARRANGEMENTS, UNDERSTANDINGS OR RELATIONSHIPS WITH RESPECT TO SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER.

On August 31, 2017 (the “Effective Date”), the Company was reorganized pursuant to an Amended Prepackaged Joint Plan of Reorganization (the “Plan”). Under the terms of the Plan, on that date, all of the Company’s previously issued and outstanding common stock was automatically cancelled and extinguished, including the common stock beneficially owned by the Reporting Persons.

Pursuant to the Plan, the Reporting Persons entered into a Stockholders Agreement, dated August 31, 2017, by and among the Company, the Reporting Persons and certain other holders of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Common Stock”) (the “Stockholders Agreement”). The Stockholders Agreement provides, among other things, for the election of directors to the reorganized Company’s board, for preemptive rights for certain stockholders, and for certain provisions relating to the sale or transfer of Common Stock by the parties to the Stockholders Agreement. The Reporting Persons may be deemed as part of a group consisting of the stockholder parties to the Stockholders Agreement. Each Reporting Person disclaims beneficial ownership of any shares of New Common Stock held by any other party to the Stockholders Agreement, except to the extent of any pecuniary interest such Reporting Person may have.

Pursuant to the Plan, the Reporting Persons entered into a Registration Rights Agreement, dated August 31, 2017, by and among the Company, the Reporting Persons and certain other investors (the “Registration Rights Agreement”). The Registration Rights Agreement provides, among other things, grants the investors customary shelf registration rights and additional registration rights.

The Reporting Persons are all associated with an extended family group and various trusts, estates and estate planning vehicles established by certain deceased and surviving family members. Mr. Mellin acts in various capacities with respect to the family interests and has been deputized by certain family members, trusts, estates and estate planning vehicles (the “Deputizing Persons”), including the Reporting Persons, to serve on the board of directors of the reorganized Issuer. The Reporting Persons (together with certain of the other Deputizing Persons)


CUSIP No. 148411 309		SCHEDULE 13D/A		Page 9 of 12

may be deemed to constitute a group pursuant to Rule 13d-5(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Each Reporting Person disclaims beneficial ownership of any shares of New Common Stock held by any other Reporting Person or Deputizing Person, except to the extent of any pecuniary interest such Reporting Person may have.

On February 26, 2020, SGF entered into a support agreement with the Company pursuant to which SGF agreed to tender its 5.00%/7.00% Convertible Senior PIK Toggle Notes due 2022 (“2022 Notes”) to the Company in connection with the Company’s offer to holders of the 2022 Notes to exchange such notes (the “Exchange Offer”) for shares of the Company’s Common Stock and for 3.00%/5.00% Convertible Senior PIK Toggle Notes due 2024 (“2024 Notes”). In the support agreement, SGF also agreed to consent to certain amendments of the indenture governing the 2022 Notes.

On March 27, 2020, in connection with the completed Exchange Offer, SGF tendered its outstanding 2022 Notes and was issued 10,815,730 shares of Common Stock and 2024 Notes having an aggregate principal amount of $14,644,793. The 2024 Notes are initially convertible into 2.1939631 shares of Common Stock per $1.00 principal amount at the option of the holders. However, the mode of payment may be changed at any time at the sole discretion of the Company. Accordingly, any right to receive shares is subject to a material contingency outside the control of SGF, and SGF does not beneficially own any shares of Common Stock which might be acquired.
