On October 15, 2020, WST purchased 166,667 shares of Common Stock in the principal amount of $1,000,002.00 in a registered direct offering, as described in the Company's Form 8-K, filed by the Company with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on October 16, 2020 (the “October 2020 Offering”).

Item 5.

Interest in Securities of the Issuer

Item 5 (a)-(d) of the Statement is amended and restated in its entirety as follows:

(a) and (b) See rows (11) and (13) of the cover pages to this Schedule 13D for the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock and percentages of the shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by each Reporting Person. See rows (7) through (10) of the cover pages to this Schedule 13D for the number of shares of Common Stock as to which each Reporting Person has the sole or shared power to vote or direct the vote and sole or shared power to dispose or to direct the disposition.

Each aggregate number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned listed above was calculated by taking the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned or held, as applicable, by each Reporting Person and increasing such number, to the extent applicable, for each Reporting Person to reflect the assumed exercise of all warrants and vested options to purchase shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by such Reporting Person. Each of the percentages listed above was determined by dividing the relevant number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned or held, as applicable, by each Reporting Person (calculated in accordance with the previous sentence) by 9,873,006, the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding following the October 2020 Offering, as reported to the Commission in the Company’s Form 424B5 filed on October 16, 2020, increased, to the extent applicable, for each Reporting Person to reflect the assumed exercise of all warrants and vested options to purchase shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by such Reporting Person.

The shares previously reported as being held by Lambda Investors LLC (“Lambda”) were distributed in kind and pro rata to Wexford Partners 11, L.P. (“WP11”), WPIC 2 LLC (“WPIC2”, and together with WST and WP11, the “Wexford Entities”) and Wexford 11 Advisors LLC (“WP Advisors”), the sole members of Lambda, on December 31, 2019.

Wexford Capital may, by reason of its status as (i) sub-advisor of WST, (ii) investment manager of WP11 and (iii) manager of WPIC2, be deemed to own beneficially the shares of Common Stock held by the Wexford Entities. Wexford GP may, by reason of its status as General Partner of Wexford Capital, be deemed to own beneficially the shares of Common Stock held by the Wexford Entities. Each of Messrs. Davidson and Jacobs may, by reason of his status as a controlling person of Wexford GP and WP Advisors, be deemed to own beneficially the shares of Common Stock held by the Wexford Entities and WP Advisors. Each of Wexford Capital, Wexford GP, Davidson and Jacobs shares the power to vote and to dispose of the shares of Common Stock held by the Wexford Entities. Each of Davidson and Jacobs shares the power to vote and to dispose of the shares of Common Stock held by WP Advisors. Each of Wexford Capital, Wexford GP and Messrs. Davidson and Jacobs disclaims beneficial ownership of the shares of Common Stock held by the Wexford Entities and/or WP Advisors, as applicable,and this report shall not be deemed as an admission that they are the beneficial owner of such securities except, in the case of Davidson and Jacobs, to the extent of their respective pecuniary interests therein.

(c) Except as set forth in Item 3 and 4 above, the Reporting Persons have not effected any transactions in the Common Stock during the 60 days preceding the date of this Amendment No. 11.

(d) No person other than the Reporting Persons, The Wexford Entities and WP Advisors is known to have the right to receive, or the power to direct the receipt of dividends from, or proceeds from the sale of, the shares of Common Stock reported herein.
