We currently do not intend to pay dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future. As a result, your ability to achieve a return on your investment may depend on appreciation in the market price of our common stock.

We currently intend to retain all available funds and any future earnings for use in the operation of our business and do not anticipate paying any dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future. Any determination to pay dividends in the future will be at the discretion of our board of directors. Accordingly, investors must for the foreseeable future rely on sales of their common stock after price appreciation, which may never occur, as the only way to realize any future gains on their investments.

Raising additional equity capital from public or private markets to pursue our business plan may cause our existing holders of common stock to experience substantial dilution or their shares to have a significant decline in trading price.

We may raise additional equity capital from public or private markets to pursue our business plan for acquisitions, to repay debt or for general corporate purposes. Any future significant issuances of common stock could result in dilution to our existing holders of common stock. Moreover, any significant issuances of common stock or securities convertible into, or exercisable or exchangeable for, our common stock could result in a substantial decline in the trading price of our common stock. As a result, our common stockholders would experience immediate dilution upon the purchase of any shares of our common stock sold at such a discount. In addition, the perception that new issuances of our securities could occur could adversely affect the market price of our common stock.

Anti-takeover provisions contained in our Charter and amended and restated bylaws, as well as provisions of Delaware law, could impair a takeover attempt.

Our Fifth Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (the “Charter”) and amended and restated bylaws contain, and the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the “DGCL”) contains, provisions which could have the effect of rendering more difficult, delaying, or preventing an acquisition deemed undesirable by our board of directors. These provisions provide for the following:

•

the right of JPE to designate a significant portion of our board of directors;

•

the ability of our remaining directors to fill vacancies on our board of directors;
