Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer

 

Item 5 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:

 

(a) The Reporting Person beneficially owns 3,174,200 Shares and has an indirect economic interest in 8,697,248 Shares, representing in aggregate a 29.57% economic interest in the Shares. The indirect economic interest is held through the CFDs with ETX Capital listed in paragraph (c) of this Item 5.

(b) Once the August 21, 2017 sale referred to in paragraph (c) of this Item 5 completes, the Reporting Person will have the power to vote or direct the vote and the power to dispose or direct the disposition of the 3,174,200 Shares it beneficially holds, representing 7.91% of the Shares. Pursuant to the CFDs, the Reporting Person does not have the power to vote or direct the vote, or power to dispose or direct the disposition, of the Shares represented by CFDs and, accordingly, beneficial ownership for such Shares is disclaimed pursuant to Rules 13d-4 and 16a-1(a)(4) for Section13(d) and Section 16(a) purposes.

(c) The following table lists each of the CFD purchases and sales by the Reporting Person of CFDs in respect of the Shares during the past 60 days. Each of these CFDs were entered into with ETX Capital and provide that the parties will exchange the difference in the value of the Shares at the time at which the contract is agreed and the time at which it is closed. As disclosed in the table below, on August 21, 2017, CFDs representing an aggregate of 3,174,200 Shares were closed down and the underlying Shares transferred to the Reporting Person at a price of $11.00 per Share.
