CUSIP No. 64128B108SCHEDULE 13D/APage 12 of 19 Pages

 

Item 3. SOURCE AND AMOUNT OF FUNDS OR OTHER CONSIDERATION
   
 

Item 3 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:

 

The Reporting Persons used a total of approximately $6,439,000 (including brokerage commissions) in the aggregate to acquire the shares of Common Stock reported in this Schedule 13D. Clinton used a total of approximately $6,384,000 (including brokerage commissions) in the aggregate to acquire the shares of Common Stock reported herein as beneficially owned by Clinton. Mr. Katz used a total of approximately $12,000 (including brokerage commissions) in the aggregate to acquire the shares of Common Stock reported herein as beneficially owned by him. Mr. Mashinsky used a total of approximately $43,000 (including brokerage commissions) in the aggregate to acquire the shares of Common Stock reported herein as beneficially owned by him.

 

Funds for the purchase of the Common Stock reported herein as beneficially held by Clinton were derived from (i) available working capital of SPOT, for the shares of Common Stock held directly by it; (ii) available working capital of CMAG, for the shares of Common Stock held directly by it; (iii) available working capital of CREL, for the shares of Common Stock held directly by it; (iv) available working capital of CROP, for the shares of Common Stock held directly by it; and (v) margin borrowings described in the following sentence, for the shares of Common Stock held directly by SPOT, CMAG, CREL and CROP. Such Common Stock is held by Clinton in commingled margin accounts, which may extend margin credit to Clinton 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 Common Stock reported herein as beneficially owned by Clinton.

 

The Common Stock reported herein as beneficially held by Mr. Katz or Mr. Mashinsky was purchased solely with the personal funds of Mr. Katz or Mr. Mashinsky, respectively, and none of the proceeds used to purchase the Common Stock reported herein as beneficially owned by them were provided through borrowings of any nature.
