By reason of the provisions of Rule 13d-3 of the Exchange Act, Gary West may be deemed to beneficially own all of the Shares (constituting approximately 10.67% of the Issuers Common Shares outstanding).

The shares represent 4,056,130 Common Shares of the Issuer beneficially owned by the Reporting Person set forth above, plus 4,575,400 Common Shares of the issuer that the Reporting Person has the right to acquire within 60 days by way of conversion of the Series A Preferred Shares.

(5)

The 3,703,083 Common Shares of the Issuer beneficially are owned directly by WIH, plus 4,575,400 Common Shares of the Issuer that WIH has the right to acquire within 60 days by way of conversion of the Series A Preferred Shares (constituting approximately 10.23% of the Issuers Common Shares outstanding).

(6)	Based on 76,335,557 Common Shares of the Issuer outstanding as of September 30, 2020, increased by 4,575,400 Common Shares that the Reporting Person has the right to acquire by way of conversion of the Series A Preferred Shares, totaling 80,910,957 Common Shares.

Item 6.

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

Item 6 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended by the addition of the information set forth in Item 4 above, which information is incorporated into this Item 6 by reference.

The Shares are owned by various entities, trusts, funds and accounts (the Owners) managed by the Adviser, which each have the right to receive or the power to direct the receipt of dividends from, or the proceeds from the sale of, the Shares, and who could each terminate their respective investment advisory relationship with the Adviser and then subsequently manage the Shares held by such Owner. None of the Owners, except WIH, included in this filing, holds more than 5% of the outstanding Shares of the Issuer as of October 9, 2020.

The Adviser does not own any of the Shares directly, but maintains complete investment and voting power and authority with respect to all of the Shares under management arrangements entered into by and between the Adviser and the direct owners of the Shares, none of whom, besides WIH, own more than 5% of the class of the Issuers securities to which this filing pertains.
