AMENDMENT NO. 3 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 Shares on April 8, 2019, Amendment No. 1 thereto filed on June 4, 2019 and Amendment No. 2 thereto filed on November 13, 2019 (as so amended, the Schedule 13D).

Notwithstanding such bona fide intention to sell, decisions to sell will be made depending on market conditions, and so there can be no assurance that Iljin SNT will sell all of such shares within that time period. Further, Iljin SNT may file additional Forms 144 from time to time with respect to the sale of such shares if they are not completed within the time period covered by a previously-filed Form 144, or in the event that the volume restriction allows for additional shares to be sold.

Iljin SNT undertakes to provide to the staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission, upon request, full information regarding the number of shares sold at each separate price within such range.
Item 6. Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships with Respect to Securities of the Issuer
Item 6 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented to include the following:
On November 15, 2019, NH notified Mr. Huh of its intention to exercise the Put Option with respect to 3,890,000 Common Shares. Pursuant to the terms of the NH Agreement, Mr. Huh or his affiliates (or a third party designated by them) were required to enter into an agreement with NH within 30 days regarding the purchase and sale obligations of the respective parties with respect to such shares. Subsequently, however, on December 5, 2019, NH notified Mr. Huh of its intention to withdraw its exercise of the Put Option. Mr. Huh is currently conducting a review of the validity of such withdrawal and his legal options under the NH Agreement. During the pendency of this assessment and any potential proceedings against NH, these shares will be deemed not to be beneficially owned by any of the Reporting Persons.
As disclosed in Amendment No. 2 to the Schedule 13D, until October 24, 2019, Dr. Hyuek Joon Lee served on the Issuers board of directors as the Reporting Persons nominee.
