Introduction  
 
This Amendment No. 7 ("AMENDMENT NO. 7") to Schedule 13D is being filed pursuant to Rule 13d-1(f) regarding shares of the common stock, no par value per share (the "SHARES"), of MFC Industrial Ltd., a British Columbia corporation (the "COMPANY"), that may be deemed to be beneficially owned by Peter R. Kellogg ("MR. KELLOGG "), IAT Reinsurance Company Ltd., a Bermuda limited liability company ("IAT" and together with Mr. Kellogg, the "IAT GROUP"), and William C. Horn III ("MR. HORN"). IAT, Mr. Kellogg and Mr. Horn are each referred hereto as a Reporting Person, and are collectively referred to as the Reporting Persons.
 
This Amendment No. 7 amends and supplements the statement on Schedule 13D dated February 9, 2001, as amended from time to time, relating to the Shares. This Amendment No. 7 reflects transactions and developments through December 13, 2013, relating to such Reporting Persons' holdings of the Company. Only those items hereby reported in this Amendment No. 7 are amended and all other items remain unchanged. Terms used herein but not otherwise defined shall have the meanings set forth in Schedule 13D, as amended.

 

Item 4. PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION
   
Item 4 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented by the addition of the following:
 
On December 12, 2013, the IAT Group issued a press release (the "DECEMBER 12 PRESS RELEASE") urging shareholders of the Company to vote their BLUE proxy or voting instruction form in support of change at the Company in connection with the Annual General and Special Meeting of Shareholders of the Company to be held on December 27, 2013 in Hong Kong (the "MEETING"). The December 12 Press Release also indicated that if elected, the Proposed Nominees expect to, among other things, work with current management to carefully and thoughtfully plan and design the Company’s strategy and regularly revisit the strategy with an eye to its continued validity and the quality of execution, and enumerated several factors that the Proposed Nominees intended to focus on in conducting a strategic review of the Company. The foregoing summary of the December 12 Press Release is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the December 12 Press Release, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 8 to this Schedule 13D and is incorporated by reference herein.
 
On December 13, 2013, the IAT Group issued a second press release (the "DECEMBER 13 PRESS RELEASE") responding to a press release from the Company issued earlier that day.  The December 13 Press Release noted that the Company's press release belatedly offered to support the election of just two of the Proposed Nominees to the board of directors of the Company in connection with the Meeting, which the IAT Group believes is insufficient. The foregoing summary of the December 13 Press Release is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the December 13 Press Release, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 9 to this Schedule 13D and is incorporated by reference herein.

 

Item 7. EXHIBITS  
  Item 7 is hereby amended and supplemented by the addition of the following:
