CUSIP No. 98419J 206

The following constitutes Amendment No. 9 to the Schedule 13D filed by the undersigned (the “Amendment No. 9”). This Amendment No. 9 amends the Schedule 13D as specifically set forth herein.

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

The first paragraph of Item 3 is hereby amended and restated to read as follows:

The Shares purchased by BVF, BVF2 and Trading Fund OS 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 1,760,384 Shares owned directly by BVF is approximately $19,632,951, including brokerage commissions. The aggregate purchase price of the 1,544,897 Shares owned directly by BVF2 is approximately $18,219,052, including brokerage commissions. The aggregate purchase price of the 75,287 Shares owned directly by Trading Fund OS is approximately $303,407, including brokerage commissions. The aggregate purchase price of the 149,975 Shares held in the Partners Managed Accounts is approximately $641,166, including brokerage commissions.

Item 5.Interest in Securities of the Issuer.

 

Item 5(a)-(c) is hereby amended and restated as follows:

(a)       The aggregate percentage of Shares reported owned by each person named herein is based on a denominator that is the sum of: (i) 11,253,256 Shares outstanding as of March 26, 2021, which is the total number of Shares outstanding as reported in the Issuer’s preliminary proxy statement on Form PRE14A filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 26, 2021 and (ii) with respect to Mr. Perry, 34,593 Shares issuable on the exercise of certain options.

As of the date hereof, the Reporting Persons hold 5,003 shares of Series X Preferred Stock, convertible into an aggregate of 5,003,000 Shares. Each share of Series X Preferred Stock is convertible into 1,000 Shares. The Series X Preferred Stock may not be converted if, after such conversion, the Reporting Persons would beneficially own, as determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), more than 19.99% of the Shares outstanding immediately after giving effect to such conversion (the “Series X Beneficial Ownership Limitation”). As of the date hereof, the Series X Beneficial Ownership Limitation, limits the aggregate conversion of the Series X Preferred Stock by the Reporting Persons to zero out of the 5,003,000 Shares underlying the Series X Preferred Stock.

As of the date hereof, (i) BVF beneficially owned 1,760,384 Shares, excluding 2,313,000 Shares issuable upon the conversion of certain Series X Preferred Stock, representing percentage ownership of approximately 15.6% of the Shares outstanding, (ii) BVF2 beneficially owned 1,544,897 Shares, excluding 1,506,000 Shares issuable upon the conversion of certain Series X Preferred Stock, representing percentage ownership of approximately 13.7% of the Shares outstanding, (iii) Trading Fund OS beneficially owned 75,287 Shares, excluding 412,000 Shares issuable upon the conversion of certain Series X Preferred Stock, representing percentage ownership of less than 1% of the Shares outstanding, and (iv) 149,975 Shares were held in the Partners Managed Accounts, excluding 772,000 Shares issuable upon the conversion of certain Series X Preferred Stock, representing percentage ownership of approximately 1.3% of the Shares outstanding.

BVF GP, as the general partner of BVF, may be deemed to beneficially own the 1,760,384 Shares beneficially owned by BVF, representing percentage ownership of approximately 15.6% of the Shares outstanding.

13

CUSIP No. 98419J 206

BVF2 GP, as the general partner of BVF2, may be deemed to beneficially own the 1,544,897 Shares beneficially owned by BVF2, representing percentage ownership of approximately 13.7% of the Shares outstanding.

Partners OS, as the general partner of Trading Fund OS, may be deemed to beneficially own the 75,287 Shares beneficially owned by Trading Fund OS, representing percentage ownership of less than 1% of the Shares outstanding.
