CUSIP No. 00211Y506

The following constitutes Amendment No. 4 to the Schedule 13D filed by the undersigned (“Amendment No. 4”). This Amendment No. 4 amends the Schedule 13D as specifically set forth herein.

Item 3.Source and Amount of Funds or Other Considerations

Item 3 is hereby amended and restated to read as follows:

The Shares to which this Amendment No. 4 relates were acquired for an aggregate purchase price of $5,147,153 inclusive of brokerage commissions and net of premium received from written option contracts. Funds for the purchase were obtained from the available working capital of the Fund. Although the Fund has the ability to obtain margin loans in the ordinary course of its business, no part of the purchase price was obtained on margin or through any other borrowings.

Item 4.Purpose of Transaction

The purpose of this Amendment No. 4 is to report a greater than 1% change in ownership of the Shares by the Reporting Persons.

Item 5.Interest in Securities of the Issuer

Items 5 (a) – (c) are hereby amended and restated to read as follows:

(a)       The aggregate percentage of Common Stock reported owned by the Reporting Persons is based on 14,410,143 shares outstanding, as of April 29, 2022, which is the total number of shares outstanding as reported on the cover page of the Issuer’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 2, 2022. As of the close of business on May 11, 2022, the Fund beneficially owned 2,580,452 Shares. Cable Car, as the General Partner of the Fund, may be deemed the beneficial owner of the 2,580,452 Shares owned by the Fund. Mr. Ma-Weaver, as the Managing Member of Cable Car, may be deemed the beneficial owner of the 2,580,452 Shares owned by the Fund.

(b)       The Fund has sole voting and dispositive power over the shares reported herein.

(c)       The transactions in the Shares by the Fund since the filing of Amendment No. 3 to the Schedule 13D are set forth in Schedule A and are incorporated herein by reference. None of Cable Car or Mr. Ma-Weaver have entered into any transactions in the Shares since the filing of Amendment No. 3 the Schedule 13D. Each Reporting Person and Cable Car disclaims beneficial ownership of such Shares except to the extent of his or its pecuniary interest therein.
