The following constitutes Amendment No. 5 to the Schedule 13D filed by the undersigned (“Amendment No. 5”). This Amendment No. 5 amends the Schedule 13D as specifically set forth herein.

 

Item 3.Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.

Item 3 is hereby amended and restated to read as follows:

 

The Shares and Series A and Common Stock Warrants purchased by Iroquois Master Fund and ICIG were purchased with working capital (which may, at any given time, include margin loans made by brokerage firms in the ordinary course of business) in open market purchases, except as otherwise noted. The aggregate purchase price of the 178,654 Shares and Series A and Common Stock Warrants to acquire 196,000 Shares beneficially owned by Iroquois Master Fund and Iroquois Capital was approximately $531,016.22, including brokerage commissions.

 

The aggregate purchase price of the 10,696 Shares and Series A and Common Stock Warrants to acquire 84,000 Shares beneficially owned by ICIG was approximately $30,851.54, including brokerage commissions.

 

As further described in Item 6 of this Schedule 13D, pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, at the Closing Date: (i) Iroquois Master Fund purchased 6,800 Preferred Shares convertible into 1,700,000 Shares and 1,700,000 Private Placement Warrants to purchase up to 1,700,000 Shares for approximately $6,800,000 and (ii) Iroquois Capital purchased 1,200 Preferred Shares convertible into 300,000 Shares and 300,000 Private Placement Warrants to purchase up to 300,000 Shares for $1,200,000.

 

Pursuant to the terms of the Warrants, the Reporting Persons cannot exercise any of the Warrants or convert any of the Preferred Shares if the Reporting Persons would beneficially own, after any such exercise, more than 4.99% of the outstanding Shares (the “Blocker”), and the percentage set forth in Row 13 of the cover page for each Reporting Person gives effect to the applicable Blocker.

 

Item 5.Interest in Securities of the Issuer.

CUSIP No. 717512X203

Item 6.Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships with Respect to Securities of the Issuer.

Item 6 is hereby amended to add the following:

Pursuant to a cash self-tender offer (the “Tender Offer”) conducted by the Issuer to purchase up to 7,750,000 Shares in accordance with the Offer to Purchase, dated May 11, 2023, by and among the Issuer and the stockholders of the Issuer, including the Reporting Persons, the Reporting Persons tendered, in exchange for cash consideration of $3.25 per share, all of the Shares beneficially owned by them. Because the Tender Offer was oversubscribed, the Company purchased only a prorated portion (approximately 83%) of the Shares properly tendered by stockholders. Therefore, 1,047,365 Shares tendered by the Reporting Persons were accepted by the Issuer on June 9, 2023.
