Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration

 

Item 6 is hereby amended and supplemented by adding the following at the end thereof:

 

On April 7, 2021, the Issuer issued the Reporting Person 20,910 shares of common stock valued at $6.14 per share, in consideration for compensation due as a member of the Board of Directors of the Issuer. The shares were issued pursuant to the Issuer’s 2020 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “Plan”).

 

On September 30, 2021, the Issuer entered into a Debt Conversion Agreement with the Reporting Person, pursuant to which the parties agreed to convert an aggregate of $819,818 owed by the Issuer to the Reporting Person, for advances previously made to the Issuer’s subsidiaries, into an aggregate of 136,636 shares of common stock of the Issuer. The agreed upon conversion price of the conversion of the debt described above was the greater of the closing consolidated bid price or the market price on the date the conversion agreement was entered into, and $6.00 per share, provided that because $6.00 was above the closing consolidated bid price and the market price, the conversion price was fixed at $6.00 per share.

 

On December 8, 2021, the Board of Directors of the Issuer granted the Reporting Person non-qualified stock options to purchase 25,000 shares of common stock each, vesting immediately on the date of grant, granted pursuant to the Plan, with a term of 10 years, and an exercise price equal to $3.95 per share, the closing sales price of the Issuer’s common stock on the date of grant.

 

Also on December 8, 2021, the Issuer agreed to issue the Reporting Person an aggregate of 5,536 shares of common stock in consideration for a net of $21,870 of compensation owed to the Reporting Person after deducting for taxes for services rendered to the Issuer as a member of the Board of Directors. Such shares were issued pursuant to the Plan and valued at $3.95 per share, the closing sales price on the date of grant.

 

On December 9, 2021, the Reporting Person purchased 50,000 shares of common stock in open market purchases, between $4.05 and $4.10 per share, and with a weighted average price of $4.07 per share.

 

Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer

 

(a) As of the close of business on December 10, 2021, the Reporting Person beneficially owned in aggregate 2,834,930 shares of Common Stock (including shares underlying the Options) representing 8.4% of the 34,021,992 (reflecting the issuance of 5,536 shares which have not been issued yet) shares of the Company’s issued and outstanding Common Stock on such date as confirmed by the Issuer’s transfer agent.

 

(b) Sir Feldmann has the sole power to vote and to dispose of the 2,834,930 shares of Common Stock which he beneficially owns (including the 25,000 shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the Options).

 

(c) See Item 3, above.

 

(d) No other person has the right to receive or the power to direct the receipt of dividends from or the proceeds from the sale of the securities beneficially owned by the Reporting Person.
