Amendment No. 1 states its own purpose: to update the fee table, the exhibit index and the exhibits, without touching the prospectus, which is not included. What the fee table shows is the offer getting bigger -- $16.9 million more of senior secured toggle notes, taking them to $791.9 million, and 875,500 extra warrants struck at $4.05 on top of the original 1,050,000 at $3.60, alongside $352.1 million of 7.75% convertible secured payment-in-kind notes due 2019 and $249.5 million of 9.5% convertible secured notes due 2020. The prices are stated after the one-for-five reverse split that took effect on 29 July 2016.
