AMENDMENT NO. 12 TO SCHEDULE 13D

 

Reference is hereby made to the statement on Schedule 13D filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission by the Reporting Persons with respect to the Common Stock of the Issuer on January 29, 2021, Amendment No. 1 thereto filed on December 13, 2021, Amendment No. 2 thereto filed on December 27, 2021, Amendment No. 3 thereto filed on February 9, 2022, Amendment No. 4 thereto filed on September 9, 2023, Amendment No. 5 thereto filed on December 28, 2023, Amendment No. 6 thereto filed on February 6, 2024, Amendment No. 7 thereto filed on March 7, 2024, Amendment No. 8 thereto filed on May 23, 2024, Amendment No. 9 thereto filed on July 1, 2024, Amendment No. 10 thereto filed on July 11, 2024 and Amendment No. 11 thereto filed on July 18, 2024 (as amended, the “Schedule 13D”). Terms defined in the Schedule 13D are used herein as so defined.

 

Item 4.

Purpose of Transaction

 

Item 4 is hereby amended to add the following:

On September 27, 2024, the Reporting Persons delivered a letter (the “Letter”) to the Issuer, which among other things, called upon the Issuer to promptly schedule and announce the date for the Issuer’s 2024 annual meeting of stockholders (the “2024 Annual Meeting”). In the Letter, the Reporting Persons expressed that they are deeply troubled by the Issuer’s apparent entrenchment tactic of refusing to hold the 2024 Annual Meeting on a timely basis. The Reporting Persons also conveyed their belief that the Issuer’s unwarranted delay of the 2024 Annual Meeting, for which a date has yet to be announced and where more than fourteen (14) months have passed since the 2023 annual meeting of stockholders, is a clear attempt to disenfranchise stockholders. In the Letter, the Reporting Persons advised that if the Issuer fails to schedule the 2024 Annual Meeting to be held not later than December 5, 2024, and to publicly announce the date of such meeting by the close of business on October 4, 2024, the Reporting Persons may be compelled to take action and pursue all remedies, including without limitation petitioning the Delaware Court of Chancery to compel the Issuer to hold its 2024 Annual Meeting pursuant to Section 211(c) of the Delaware General Corporation Law. 

Item 5.

Interest in Securities of the Issuer.

 

The following paragraphs of Item 5 of the Schedule 13D are hereby amended and restated as follows:

 

(a) – (b) The information requested by these paragraphs is incorporated herein by reference to the cover page to this Amendment No. 12 to Schedule 13D.

 

(c) The Reporting Persons have not effected any transactions in the shares of Common Stock during the past 60 days.

 

Item 6.

Contracts, Arrangement, Understandings or Relationships with Respect to Securities of the Issuer.

 

Item 6 is hereby amended to add the following:

 

On August 9, 2024, warrants to purchase 190,000 shares of Common Stock at $11.50 per share held by Knighted Pastures, LLC expired worthless pursuant to their terms.
