Except as expressly amended by this Amendment No. 2, the Schedule 13D remains in full force and effect.

The purpose of this Amendment No. 2 is to report an increase in the Reporting Persons’ beneficial ownership of Common Shares as a result of the purchase of Common Shares on January 8, 2020, as described in this Amendment No. 2.

Item 1. Security and Issuer.

This Schedule 13D relates to the Common Shares of the Company, which has its principal executive offices at 100 Spy Court, Markham, Ontario, Canada L3R 5H6.

Item 2. Identity and Background.

This Schedule 13D is jointly filed by the Reporting Persons. 10379085 Canada Inc. is a wholly owned subsidiary of PCRI Inc. The principal address of the Reporting Persons is 100-6111 vie. Royalmount Ave., Montreal, Quebec, Canada, H4P 2T4.

Both 10379085 Canada Inc. and PCRI are holding corporations. Morris Goodman, David Goodman, Gregory Orleski and Sonia Girolamo are each officers and directors of PCRI Inc. and 10379085 Canada Inc. and Jean-Guy Goulet is a director of 10379085 Canada Inc. The foregoing individuals collectively make investment decisions with respect to the securities held by 10379085 Canada Inc.

During the last five years, none of the Reporting Persons have been convicted in a criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations and similar misdemeanors) or been a party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative body of competent jurisdiction and as a result of such proceeding, was or is subject to a judgment, decree or final order enjoining future violations of, or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to, federal or state securities laws or finding any violation with respect to such laws.

Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.

Item 3 is hereby supplemented as follows:

On January 6, 2020, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Securities Purchase Agreement”) with certain United States resident investors and Subscription Agreements (the “Subscription Agreements”) with certain non-U.S. investors, including 10379085 Canada Inc., providing for the issuance and sale by the Company of Common Shares in a registered direct offering (the “Offering”). In a concurrent private placement (the “Private Placement”), the Company agreed to sell to such investors (i) Class A Purchase Warrants to purchase 0.75 of a Common Share for each Common Share purchased in the Offering (the “Class A Purchase Warrants”) and (ii) Class B Purchase Warrants to purchase 0.50 of a Common Share for each Common Share purchased in the offering (the “Class B Purchase Warrants,” and together with the Class A Purchase Warrants, the “Purchase Warrants”). 10379085 Canada Inc. purchased 15,625 Common Shares in the Offering at a purchase price of $3.20 and also received 11,719 Class A Warrants and 7,813 Class B Warrants.

The Class A Purchase Warrants will be exercisable at any time on or after July 8, 2020 (the “Class A Purchase Warrant Initial Exercise Date”), at an exercise price of $4.80 per share and will expire on the third anniversary of the Class A Purchase Warrant Initial Exercise Date. The Class B Purchase Warrants will be exercisable at any time on or after July 8, 2020 (the “Class B Purchase Warrant Initial Exercise Date”), at an exercise price of $4.00 per share and will expire on the four month anniversary of the Class B Purchase Warrant Initial Exercise Date. The exercise price and number of Common Shares issuable upon the exercise of the Purchase Warrants will be subject to adjustment in the event of any share dividends and splits, reverse share split, recapitalization, reorganization or similar transaction, as described in the Purchase Warrants. None of the Common Shares underlying the Purchase Warrants are included in the Common Shares deemed to be beneficially owned by the Reporting Persons as reported in this Amendment No. 2 as such Reporting Persons do not have the right to acquire the shares within sixty days of the filing date of this Amendment No. 2.
