This Amendment No. 1 (“Amendment No. 1”) amends and supplements the Schedule 13D filed on April 16, 2020 by the Reporting Persons (as so amended and supplemented, the “Schedule 13D”).

Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer

Item 5 is hereby amended and restated to read as follows:

Based on the information set forth in the Form 10-Q, there were 177,482,082 Paired Shares outstanding as of May 1, 2020.

Margin Loan Facility

SAR Public Holdings has entered into the Margin Loan Agreement dated as of August 6, 2020 (as amended from time to time, the “Margin Loan Agreement” and, together with each agreement or instrument delivered pursuant to the foregoing, including the security documentation delivered in connection therewith, the “Margin Loan Documentation”) with the lenders party thereto (each, a “Lender” and collectively, the “Lenders”) and Citibank, N.A., as administrative agent and as calculation agent.

Upon the occurrence of certain events that are customary for these types of margin loans, the Lenders may exercise their rights to require SAR Public Holdings to prepay the margin loan or post additional collateral, and the Lenders may exercise their rights to foreclose on, and dispose of, the Pledged Paired Shares and related collateral, in each case in accordance with the Margin Loan Documentation.

The foregoing description of the terms of the Margin Loan Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by, the full text of the Margin Loan Agreement and the exhibits thereto, which is attached hereto as Exhibit 3, and is incorporated herein by reference.
