Item 1.02 Termination of a Material Definitive Agreement.

In connection with the consummation of the Merger, the Company terminated the Loan and Security Agreement, dated November 13, 2020, by and among the Company, each of the subsidiary guarantors from time to time party thereto, the financial institutions from time to time party thereto (collectively, the "Lenders"), and Acquiom Agency Services LLC, as agent for the Lenders, as amended on February 4, 2022 and April 1, 2022 by the Company and the applicable guarantor and lender parties (as amended, the "Loan and Security Agreement"), at the effective time of the Merger (the "Effective Time"), and a payment of the amount previously outstanding under the Loan and Security Agreement was made in full in cash.

Item 2.01 Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.

On July 7, 2022, the Merger was consummated and, in accordance with the Merger Agreement, each share of Company common stock (the "Common Stock" and each a "Share") issued and outstanding as of such date (other than Shares owned by the Company as treasury stock immediately prior to the Effective Time, all of which were cancelled) was automatically converted into the right to receive $6.30 in cash, without interest and subject to deduction for any required tax withholding (the "Merger Consideration"), and each former holder of such Shares ceased to have any rights with respect thereto, except the right to receive the Merger Consideration.

Each unexercised Company stock option that was outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time with an exercise price per Share less than the Merger Consideration was automatically cancelled and converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration less the exercise price for each underlying Share. Each outstanding and unexercised stock option with an exercise price per Share equal to or greater than the Merger Consideration was cancelled, without payment of any consideration payable therefor, and has no further force or effect.

Each performance-based restricted stock unit of the Company that was outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time and unvested became fully vested and was automatically cancelled and converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration for each underlying Share. Each time-based restricted stock unit of the Company ("RSU") that was outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time and would vest within 12 months following the Effective Time became fully vested and was automatically cancelled and converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration for each underlying Share. Fifty percent (50%) of the remaining time-based RSUs that were outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (i.e., those that would not vest within 12 months following the Effective Time) became fully vested and was automatically cancelled and converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration for each underlying Share, and the other 50% of the remaining time-based RSUs that were outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time were automatically cancelled and converted into the right to receive cash-based awards that pay out in accordance with the vesting schedules that applied to the time-based RSUs that they replaced.

Each Class A exchangeable share of each of 1176363 B.C. Ltd., a company incorporated under the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia) and an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, and 1176368 B.C. Ltd., a company incorporated under the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia) and an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, was effectively redeemed and exchanged for the right to receive the Merger Consideration.

Each warrant to purchase Shares that was unexercised and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time automatically ceased to represent a warrant to purchase Shares and converted into the right by the holder of such warrant upon any subsequent exercise to receive the Merger Consideration, provided that the holder of such warrant that properly exercises it by August 6, 2022 will be entitled to receive an estimated Black-Scholes-based value of $0.77 per Share covered by a private placement warrant or $0.71 per Share covered by a public . . .

Item 3.01 Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or


           Standard; Transfer of Listing.

Trading in the Common Stock was suspended prior to the open of trading on July 7, 2022. The Company also requested that Nasdaq file with the SEC an application on Form 25 to delist and deregister the Common Stock under Section 12(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"). The Company intends to file with the SEC a Form 15 requesting the deregistration of the Common Stock and public warrants under Section 12(g) of the Exchange Act and the suspension of the Company's reporting obligations under Section 13 and Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act.
