The percentage calculations
in the above cover page, and as set forth below, are based on a total outstanding number of Common Shares of
16,085,239.
Such number
represents 15,885,239 outstanding Common Shares (as disclosed by the Company as of July 31, 2018), plus the
200,000 Common Shares immediately exercisable by Mr. Lau under the Stock Option (as defined in Item 3).
Except as set forth herein,
the Prior Amendments remain unmodified.
Item 4. Purpose of Transaction
.
Mr. Lau acquired the Common
Shares described in this Schedule 13D for investment purposes. Mr. Lau intends to review his investment in the Company on a continuing
basis. Depending on the price and availability of the Company’s securities, developments affecting the Company, the business
prospects of the Company, general stock market and economic conditions, tax considerations, investment considerations and/or other
factors deemed relevant, Mr. Lau may consider increasing or decreasing his investment in the Company, through one or more open
market purchases or private transactions.
As of November 19, 2018, Mr.
Lau beneficially owns the majority of the outstanding Common Shares of the Company. This will impede the acquisition of control
by any other person, unless Mr. Lau elects to sell his Common Shares. Mr. Lau does not have any current plans or proposals that
relate to or would result in any of the actions set forth in clauses (a) through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D.
Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer
.
(a – b) As a result
of the open market purchases consummated by Mr. Lau since December 11, 2018, as of the date hereof Mr. Lau beneficially owns
8,328,980 Common Shares. Such shares consist of 8,128,980 Common Shares held of record by Mr. Lau and an immediately
exercisable option to purchase up to 200,000 Common Shares. Such holdings represent 51.8% of the Common Shares. Mr. Lau has
sole power to vote and dispose of all Common Shares held of record by Mr. Lau as of the date hereof, and upon exercise of any
portion of the Stock Option, would have sole power to vote and dispose of any Common Shares so acquired.
(c) Mr. Lau has individually
engaged in and effected the following open market purchases of Common Shares in the past sixty days:
