Unless otherwise defined herein, capitalized terms used in this Amendment No. 2 shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Statement. Unless amended or supplemented below, the information in the Statement remains unchanged. | ||
| Item 3. | Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration | |

On July 16, 2026, Fund II purchased a total of (i) 853,450 Ordinary Shares and (ii) Pre-Funded Warrants to purchase up to 525,897 Ordinary Shares for an aggregate purchase price of $20,000,005.60 in an underwritten public offering (the "Offering"). The securities were purchased with working capital. | ||
| Item 4. | Purpose of Transaction | |

Fund II purchased the Ordinary Shares and Pre-funded Warrants referenced in Item 3 for investment purposes.
Lock-Up Agreement
In connection with the Company's underwritten public offering of Ordinary Shares and Pre-Funded Warrants that closed on July 16, 2026, the Reporting Persons entered into a customary lock-up letter agreement (the "Lock-Up Agreement") with Jefferies LLC and TD Securities (USA) LLC acting as the Representatives (collectively, the "Representatives") of the underwiters party to to an underwriting agreement with the Company. Pursuant to the Lock-Up Agreement, the Reporting Persons agreed to refrain from selling shares of the Company's securities without the consent of the Representatives, and other customary lock-up conditions, for a period of 60 days following the date of the final prospectus supplement for the offering.
The foregoing description of the Lock-Up Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Form of Lock-Up Agreement, which is filed as Exhibit 99.2 to this Schedule 13D and incorporated herein by reference.
Pre-Funded Warrants
The Pre-Funded Warrants purchased by Fund II in the offering have an exercise price of $0.001, are immediately exercisable at any time after the date of issuance and will not expire. A holder of Pre-Funded Warrants may not exercise the warrant if the holder, together with its affiliates, would beneficially own more than 9.99%, as applicable, of the number of Ordinary Shares outstanding immediately after giving effect to such exercise. A holder of Pre-Funded Warrants may increase or decrease this percentage to a percentage not in excess of 19.99% by providing notice to the Company. Any increase in the percentage will not be effective until the 61st day after such notice is delivered.
The foregoing description of the Pre-Funded Warrants does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the form of Pre-Funded Warrant, which is filed as Exhibit 99.3 hereto. | ||
| Item 5. | Interest in Securities of the Issuer | |
| (a) | The information in rows 11 and 13 of each of the cover pages (including the explanatory note in the "Comments") of this Amendment No. 2 is incorporated by reference herein.
In aggregate, the Reporting Persons' securities include (a) 3,601,316 Ordinary Shares, (b) 9,023 shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of options held by the Reporting Persons that are currently exercisable or will be exercisable within 60 days of the date of this filing, (c) 2,890,000 Ordinary Shares issuable upon conversion of 2,890 shares of Series A Preferred Shares, and (d) 102,069 Ordinary Shares issuable upon exercise of Pre-Funded Warrants. The securities exclude 2,191,968 Ordinary Shares issuable upon exercise of Pre-Funded Warrants directly held by Fund II due to application of the beneficial ownership limitation. The exercise of the Pre-Funded Warrants is subject to a beneficial ownership limitation of 9.99% of the outstanding Ordinary Shares and the conversion of the Series A Preferred Shares is subject to a beneficial ownership limitation of 19.99%. At such time as Fairmount and its affiliates beneficially own 9.0% or less of the Ordinary Shares, the beneficial ownership limitation with respect to the Series A Preferred Shares will automatically reduce to 9.99%. | |
