Item 5.

Interest in Securities of the Issuer.

 

(a)

As of the date of this statement, the reporting person beneficially owned a total of 5,319,203 Common Shares, which is 12.6% of the Issuer’s class of Common Shares, as calculated in accordance with Rule 13d-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. As of February 9, 2022, the Issuer had a total of 41,568,697 Common Shares outstanding. The Common Shares beneficially owned by the reporting person includes 4,810,869 outstanding Common Shares and 508,334 Common Shares underlying stock options that are currently exercisable or that can be exercised within the next 60 days. Rule 13d-3 provides, in part, that shares are deemed to be beneficially owned by a person if the person has the right to acquire the shares (for example, upon exercise of an option or warrant) within 60 days. In computing the percentage ownership of any person under Rule 13d-3, the a number of shares outstanding is deemed to include the number of shares beneficially owned by such person (and only such person) by reason of these acquisition rights. As a result, the percentage of outstanding shares of the person does not necessarily reflect a person’s actual ownership or voting power with respect to the number of shares actually outstanding.

Not applicable.
