Schedule 13D

 

EXPLANATORY NOTE

 

This Schedule 13D is being filed by Lancaster Brazil Fund LP (the “Reporting Person”) due to multiple material changes.

 

The Reporting Person previously filed a Statement on Schedule 13G pursuant to Rule 13d-1(c) on February 2, 2018. However, as the Reporting Person is an entity controlled by Marc Fogassa, the Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Issuer (as defined below), the Reporting Person was not eligible to file a Statement on Schedule 13D at that time. In addition, the Reporting Person effected a transaction on March 11, 2020 which represented a decrease in the Reporting Person’s ownership of Common Stock (as defined below) of more than 1% of the total number of Common Stock outstanding, which would have required disclosure on Schedule 13D. However, the Reporting Person inadvertently failed to file a Schedule 13D at that time. As such, this Schedule13D includes disclosures as of October 26, 2017 (the date the Reporting Person’s filing obligations under Schedule 13D first began) and also includes disclosure of all transactions involving the Issuer’s Common Stock which were effected by the Reporting Persons during such period beginning on October 26, 2017 and ending on June 29, 2022.
