Items 5(a) and 5(b) of this Schedule 13D are hereby amended and restated as follows:

 

  (a)-(b) RMP beneficially owns, in the aggregate, 1,843,281 shares of Common Stock, which represent approximately 9.5% of the outstanding Common Stock.(1) RMP has the sole power to vote or direct the vote of, and the sole power to dispose or direct the disposition of, all such 1,843,281 shares of Common Stock.

Because each of RMCP GP, RMCP LLC, RMCM and Mr. Mesdag may be deemed to control RMP, each of RMCP GP, RMCP LLC, RMCM and Mr. Mesdag may be deemed to beneficially own, and to have the power to vote or direct the vote of, or dispose or direct the disposition of, all of the Common Stock beneficially owned by RMP.

Other than shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by RMP, none of the Reporting Persons, Mr. Teets or Mr. Watkinson may be deemed to beneficially own any shares of Common Stock.

Each of RMCP LLC, RMP and RMCP GP affirms membership in a group with each other but disclaims membership in a group with RMCM or Mr. Mesdag. Each of RMCM and Mr. Mesdag disclaims membership in a group with any person.

The filing of this Schedule 13D shall not be construed as an admission that any Reporting Person is the beneficial owner of any of the shares of Common Stock that such Reporting Person may be deemed to beneficially own. Without limiting the foregoing sentence, each of RMCM and Mr. Mesdag disclaims beneficial ownership of all shares of Common Stock reported in this Schedule 13D. In addition, the filing of this Schedule 13D shall not be construed as an admission that any partner, member, director, officer or affiliate of any Reporting Person is the beneficial owner of any of the shares of Common Stock that such partner, member, director, officer or affiliate may be deemed to beneficially own. Without limiting the foregoing sentence, each of Mr. Teets and Mr. Watkinson disclaims beneficial ownership of all shares of Common Stock reported in this Schedule 13D.

Item 5(c) of this Schedule 13D is hereby amended to include the following information:

 

  (c) The information set forth above in Item 3 is hereby incorporated by reference in response to this Item 5(c).

 

 

(1) All calculations of percentage ownership in this Schedule 13D are based on 19,466,247 shares of Common Stock outstanding as of November 6, 2013, as reported in the Form 10-Q which was filed by BBRG with the Securities and Exchange Commission on November 7, 2013.
