During the last five years, none of the Reporting Persons or, to the best knowledge of the Reporting Persons, any of the other persons named in this Item 2, has been a party to any civil proceeding commenced before a judicial or administrative body of competent jurisdiction as a result of which it was or is now subject to a judgement, decree or final order enjoining future violations of, or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to, federal or state securities law or finding any violation with respect to such laws.

Item 3

Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration

On January 1, 2021, the Issuer acquired all of the issued and outstanding common shares (the “Husky Common Shares”) of Husky Energy Inc. (“Husky”) pursuant to a court-approved Plan of Arrangement in accordance with the provisions of the Business Corporations Act (Alberta) (the “Arrangement”). As a result, a portion of the Husky Common Shares held by each common shareholder of Husky was exchanged for warrants (“Warrants”) and the remaining portion of the Husky Common Shares was exchanged for Common Shares, such that, in aggregate, each common shareholder of Husky received 0.7845 of a Common Share and 0.0651 of a Warrant in respect of each Husky Common Share held. Each whole Warrant entitles the holder thereof to acquire one Common Share upon payment in full of the exercise price of C$6.54 per Common Share at any time up to 60 months following completion of the Arrangement.

Upon the effectiveness of the Arrangement, LFI, as a holder of Husky Common Shares, automatically received the Common Shares and Warrants disclosed in this Schedule 13D in exchange for its Husky Common Shares. No other consideration was used by the Reporting Persons in connection with the acquisition of the Common Shares and Warrants described in this Schedule 13D.

Purpose of Transaction.

The information set forth in or incorporated by reference in Items 3 and 6 of this Schedule 13D is incorporated by reference into this Item 4.

The Reporting Persons hold the Common Shares and Warrants as described in this Schedule 13D for investment purposes and intend to review their investment in the Issuer on a continuing basis. Subject to the terms of the Standstill Agreement (as defined below), depending on various factors, including but not limited to the Issuer’s business, prospects, financial position and strategic direction, price levels of the Common Shares and Warrants, conditions in the securities markets, and general economic and industry conditions, each Reporting Person may in the future take such actions with respect to its investment in the Issuer as it deems appropriate, including changing its current intentions, with respect to any or all matters required to be disclosed in this Schedule 13D.

Consistent with the Reporting Persons’ investment purposes, subject to the terms of the Standstill Agreement, the Reporting Persons may engage in communications with, without limitation, one or more shareholders of the Issuer, management of the Issuer or one or more members of the board of directors of the Issuer, and may make suggestions concerning the Issuer’s operations, prospects, business and financial strategies, strategic direction and transactions, assets and liabilities, business and financing alternatives and such other matters as the Reporting Persons may deem relevant to their ownership of the Common Shares and Warrants. The Reporting Persons expect that they will, from time to time, review their investment position in the Issuer and may, subject to the terms of the Standstill Agreement, make additional purchases of Common Shares (or other securities convertible or exercisable into Common Shares) in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions, or hold or dispose of all or part of their investments in the Common Shares, depending upon the Reporting Persons’ evaluation of the Issuer’s business, prospects, financial condition and strategic direction, the market for the Common Shares and Warrants, other opportunities available to the Reporting Persons, general economic conditions, stock market conditions and other factors.

CUSIP No. 15135U109

Standstill Agreement

On October 24, 2020, LFI entered into a standstill agreement (the “Standstill Agreement”) with the Issuer, with effect as of January 1, 2021. The Standstill Agreement sets forth certain restrictions and obligations in connection with LFI’s shareholdings in the Issuer.

Transfer Restrictions

Subject to certain exceptions, for a period of 18 months following January 1, 2021, LFI may not transfer any Common Shares, except: (i) pursuant to a business combination involving the Issuer (a “Combination Transaction”) that has been approved or recommended by the board of directors of the Issuer or (ii) in regard to a transfer to an affiliate of LFI, provided that such affiliate agrees to be bound by and become a party to the Standstill Agreement.

Without the prior consent of the Issuer, LFI may not transfer, either alone or in the aggregate with its affiliates, Hutchison Whampoa Europe Investments S.à r.l. (“Hutchison Europe”) (which was a shareholder of Husky and received Common Shares and Warrants as a result of the Arrangement) or its affiliates any Common Shares or Warrants to any person, that would, to the knowledge of LFI, result in such person, together with any persons acting jointly or in concert with such person, beneficially owning, or controlling or directing, 20% or more of the then-outstanding Common Shares (including those Common Shares and Warrants proposed to be transferred), subject to certain exceptions.

Voting Restrictions

Pursuant to the Standstill Agreement, LFI has covenanted and agreed that it and its affiliates shall: (a) vote or cause to be voted all Common Shares that it beneficially owns, or over which it or any of its affiliates has control or direction, in favor of; or (b) abstain from voting in respect of all Common Shares that it beneficially owns, or over which it or any of its affiliates has control or direction, in respect of, the election, as directors of the Issuer, of all nominees of the Issuer’s board or management at any annual or other meeting of the Issuer’s common shareholders at which members of the Issuer’s board are proposed to be elected.

In connection with a Combination Transaction, LFI has covenanted and agreed that it shall, and shall cause its affiliates to, vote its pro-rata share of all Excess Shares (as defined below) that it beneficially owns, or over which it or any of its affiliates has control or direction, in accordance with the recommendation of the Issuer’s board in respect to such Combination Transaction. “Excess Shares” means, at the applicable time, such number of Common Shares held by LFI and Hutchison Europe, in aggregate, which are in excess of the number that is 19.9% of the then-outstanding Common Shares.

These restrictions shall cease to apply on the earlier of: (i) the execution and delivery by the Issuer of a definitive agreement to implement a transaction or series of transactions pursuant to which a person agrees to acquire beneficial ownership of, or control or direction over, more than 50% of the outstanding voting securities of the Issuer (measured on a fully-diluted basis) or a majority of the consolidated assets of the Issuer and its subsidiaries; (ii) a person or group of related persons acting jointly or in concert acquire beneficial ownership of, or control or direction over, at least 20% of the outstanding voting securities of the Issuer; and (iii) a person or group of related persons acting jointly or in concert publicly commence a formal take-over bid for more than 20% of the outstanding voting securities of the Issuer.

Termination

The Standstill Agreement shall terminate on the date that is 60 months following January 1, 2021, unless any of the following events occur which cause earlier termination:
