Item 3. | Source and Amount of Funds or Other Considerations |
As discussed in Item 4, the Reporting Persons intend to use working capital to invest approximately $8.3 million in newly issued common shares of the Issuer through participation in Issuer’s subscription rights offering.
Item 4. | Purpose of Transaction |
On December 15, 2021 Issuer filed Amendment No. 3 to Form F-1 Registration Statement (the “F-1”) and subsequently filed its prospectus on January 14, 2022 (the “Prospectus”) setting forth the terms and conditions of its subscription rights offering to holders of record of its Common Shares as of January 7, 2022 (the “Rights Offering”). Under the provisions of the Rights Offering, each holder of record receives at no charge from the Issuer one non-transferable subscription right for each Common Share owned, which subscription right entitles the holder to invest $0.60 towards the purchase of Common Shares at a price per share equal to the subscription price. Subscription right holders who fully exercise their basic subscription rights are entitled to subscribe for additional Common Shares that remain unsubscribed as a result of any unexercised basic subscription rights, referred to as the over-subscription right.
The subscription period, during which holders may exercise their subscription rights, both basic and over-subscription, commences on January 14, 2022 at 9:00 a.m. Eastern Time, and expires at 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time on January 31, 2022, unless Issuer decides to terminate the rights offering earlier or to extend the expiration date.
Page 7 |
The Reporting Persons expect to receive a collective total of 10,430,739 basic subscription rights. The Reporting Persons have expressed an intention to participate in the Rights Offering by means of a cash investment of at least approximately $6.3 million to fully exercise their basic subscription rights and an additional investment of approximately $2.0 million for over-subscription rights.
As disclosed in the Prospectus, (i) the subscription price will be equal to 90% of the lower of (1) the volume weighted average price per Common Share on the Nasdaq Capital Market over the five consecutive trading days through and including the expiration date of the Rights Offering and (2) the closing price per Common Share on the Nasdaq Capital Market on the expiration date of the Rights Offering, and (ii) the number of Common Shares an investor would be issued is determined by the total amount they invest pursuant to the exercise of their basic subscription rights divided by the subscription price, with additional Common Shares issued to those who exercised their over-subscription rights. Accordingly, neither the subscription price nor the number of Common Shares issuable to the Reporting Persons are known at this time and will not be determined until after the Rights Offering expiration date.
Item 5. | Interest in Securities of the Issuer |
(a) | Pacific Electric is the beneficial owner of 10,430,769 shares of the Common Shares of the Company, representing 75.5% of the outstanding Common Shares as of January 14, 2022, the date of the most recently available filing by the Issuer. Pacific Electric beneficially owns 1,410,739 shares directly (10.21% of the outstanding Common Shares) and the remaining shares indirectly, as a result of (i) Pacific Electric's control of its wholly-owned subsidiary Moon View, which owns of record 7,661,235 Common Shares (55.44% of the outstanding Common Shares) and (ii) Pacific Electric's control of its wholly-owned subsidiary Pacific Holdings, which owns of record 1,358,795 Common Shares (9.83% of the outstanding Common Shares). |
(b) | Pacific Electric has the sole power to vote or direct the voting of, and sole power to dispose or direct the disposition of, 10,430,769 of the Common Shares. |
(c) | None of the Reporting Persons have effected any transactions with respect to the Common Shares during the past sixty days, aside from receiving at no cost the subscription rights reported in Item 4, which is the subject of this Amendment No. 4 to Schedule 13D. |
(d) | To the knowledge of the Reporting Persons, no other person is known to have the right to receive or the power to direct the receipt of dividends from or the proceeds from the sale of such shares of the Common Shares. |
