7 |
On the date of this Schedule 13D (Amendment No. 4), the Filing Persons are the beneficial owners of, in the aggregate, 9,178,757 Common Shares, representing 19.5% of the Issuer’s outstanding Common Shares. The Filing Persons’ percentage beneficial ownership has been computed as a percentage of 47,081,376 Common Shares outstanding on December 10, 2013, computed as the sum of (i) 45,581,376 shares outstanding on November 13, 2013, as reported by the Issuer in its Management’s Discussion and Analysis dated November 13, 2013 constituting Exhibit 99.2 to the Issuer’s Report on Form 6-K furnished to the Securities and Exchange Commission by the Issuer on November 15, 2013, plus (ii) 1,500,000 common shares issued in the Issuer’s private placement. The number of Common Shares and the percentage of the Issuer’s Common Shares beneficially owned by each Filing Person are as follows:

PABTL | 8,301,232 | 17.6 | % | 8,301,232 | 17.6 | % | ||||||||||
FCMI | 555,000 | 1.2 | % | 8,856,232 | 1 | 18.8 | %1 | |||||||||
Buckingham | 250,000 | 0.5 | % | 250,000 | 2 | 0.5 | %2 | |||||||||
Nancy Friedberg | 50,825 | 0.1 | % | 300,825 | 3 | 0.6 | %3 | |||||||||

1 | Includes 8,301,232 shares owned directly by PABTL. |
2 | Voting and dispositive power over the Common Shares held by Buckingham is exercisable by any of its trustees, acting individually. In practice, such authority is exercised solely by Mr. Friedberg and by Ms. Friedberg. |
3 | Includes 21,700 shares held in a retirement account for the benefit of Ms. Friedberg, 29,125 shares owned directly by Ms. Friedberg, and 250,000 shares owned directly by Buckingham (see note 2). |
4 | Includes 8,301,232 shares owned directly by PABTL, 555,000 shares owned directly by FCMI, 43,400 shares held in a retirement account (21,700 shares for the benefit of each of Mr. Friedberg and Ms. Friedberg), and 250,000 shares owned directly by Buckingham (see note 2). Excludes 29,125 shares owned directly by Ms. Friedberg, the wife of Mr. Friedberg, with respect to which Mr. Friedberg disclaims beneficial ownership. |
All shares reported as beneficially owned by FCMI, PABTL, Nancy Friedberg, Albert D. Friedberg and Buckingham are presently outstanding. Mr. Friedberg, directly and through his control over FCMI shares held by members of his family and trusts for the benefit of members of his family, may be considered the sole beneficial owner of all of the Common Stock beneficially owned by FCMI. By virtue of his control of FCMI, Mr. Friedberg also may be deemed to possess voting and dispositive power over the shares owned directly by its wholly-owned subsidiary, PABTL. As trustees of Buckingham, each of Mr. Friedberg and Ms. Friedberg possesses voting and dispositive power over the Common Shares owned by Buckingham and may be deemed to share beneficial ownership of such Common Shares. Except for such beneficial ownership by Albert D. Friedberg and by Ms. Friedberg, none of the directors or officers of FCMI or PABTL, and none of the trustees of Buckingham, beneficially own any Common Shares.
Except for PABTL’s purchase of 300,000 Common Shares, as reported above, none of the Filing Persons, and none of their respective directors, officers or trustees has effected any transactions in the Issuer’s Common Shares in the 60 days preceding the filing of this Schedule 13D (Amendment No. 4).

Item 6. | Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships with respect to Securities of the Issuer |
PABTL acquired the 300,000 Common Shares reported in this Schedule 13D (Amendment No. 4) pursuant to a Share Purchase Agreement dated December 10, 2013 (the “ZLC SPA”) between ZLC Foundation, a Canadian registered charity (“Seller”) and PABTL, as Buyer. PABTL has been informed that Seller acquired such Common Shares as a charitable donee of a purchaser in the Company’s private placement referred to above. In addition to the purchase price and other terms of the transaction, the ZLC SPA contains certains representations and warranties by the parties customarily included in agreements of this type, including representations and warranties by PABTL as to its non-U.S. status made to support the Seller’s offer and sale of the Common Shares to PABTL without registration under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933 Act”) in an “offshore transaction” pursuant to Regulation S under the 1933 Act. PABTL also made representations as to its status as an “accredited investor” as that term is defined in both applicable Canadian securities legislation and Rule 501 under the 1933 Act. PABTL agreed that certificates evidencing the Common Shares would bear a restrictive legend reflecting the limits on disposition of the Common Shares under Canadian law and the 1933 Act, including a prohibition on trading the Common Shares for a period of four months from the date of its acquisition of the Common Shares and an acknowledgment that delivery of a certificate with such restrictive legends would not constitute “good delivery” in settlement of trades in the Common Shares.
The foregoing description of the ZLC SPA is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of said agreement, which is filed as an exhibit to this Schedule 13D (Amendment No. 4).
