On December 31, 2016 Anson Funds Management LP (d/b/a Anson Group), a Texas limited partnership, Anson Management GP LLC, a Texas limited liability company, Mr. Bruce R. Winson, the principal of Anson Funds Management LP and Anson Management GP LLC, Anson Advisors Inc. (d/b/a Anson Funds), an Ontario, Canada corporation, Mr. Adam Spears, a director of Anson Advisors Inc., and Mr. Moez Kassam, a director of Anson Advisors Inc. (collectively, the “Initial Reporting Persons”), jointly filed a Statement of Beneficial Ownership on a Form 13G pursuant to Rule 240.13d-1(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Act”) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). On August 4, 2017, the Initial Reporting Persons, as well as Anson Investments Master Fund LP, a Cayman Islands limited partnership, who was originally eligible to file with the Initial Reporting Persons on the Original 13G (the Anson Investments Master Fund together with the Initial Reporting Persons are hereafter collectively referred to as the “Reporting Persons”), jointly filed a Statement of Beneficial Ownership on Schedule 13D (the “Original Schedule 13D”) pursuant to Rule 240.13d-1(e) of the Act to reflect an intention by the Initial Reporting Persons to hold the securities with a purpose or effect of changing or influencing control of the issuer. The Original Schedule 13D was amended by Amendment No. 1 to the Original Schedule 13D filed with the SEC on November 16, 2017 by the Reporting Persons, to reflect a change in the percentage of ownership of shares by the Reporting Persons.

 

Whereas, pursuant to § 240.13d-1(h) of the Act, the Reporting Persons qualify to file a Statement of Beneficial Ownership on a Form 13G under Rule 240.13d-1(b) of the Act which, among other things, requires that the Reporting Persons “acquired such securities in the ordinary course of business and not with the purpose nor with the effect of changing or influencing the control of the issuer, nor in connection with or as a participant in any transaction having such purpose or effect” This Amendment No. 2 to the Original Schedule 13D (this “Amendment No. 2”) constitutes the final amendment to the Reporting Persons’ Schedule 13D and an exit filing for the Reporting Persons,

 

Item 4. Purpose of Transaction.

 

Item 4 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented by adding the following information:

 

The purpose of the holding of the securities of the Issuer by the Reporting Persons is solely for investment purposes, and, pursuant to Section 240.13d-1(b) is in the “ordinary course of the business” of the Reporting Persons and “not with the purpose nor with the effect of changing or influencing the control of the issuer, nor in connection with or as a participant in any transaction having such purpose or effect, including any transaction subject to § 240.13d-1(b) and § 240.13d-1(c) of the Act, other than activities solely in connection with a nomination under § 240.14a-11 of the Act.”
