Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On December 29, 2017, the Company entered into Amendment No. 1 to the Sales Agreement (the “Amendment”) with Cantor Fitzgerald & Co. (“Cantor”).

The Amendment amends the Sales Agreement entered into by the Company and Cantor on December 23, 2016, as further described in the Company’s Form 8-K filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission on December 23, 2016.

Pursuant to the Sales Agreement, as amended by the Amendment (the “Amended Sales Agreement”), the Company may sell from time to time, at its option, the Company’s common shares, through Cantor, as sales agent. Pursuant to the Amended Sales Agreement, sales of the common shares, if any, will be made under the Company’s previously filed and effective Registration Statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-210782), by any method that is deemed to be an “at the market offering” as defined in Rule 415(a)(4) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”).

The Amendment is attached to this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibit 1.1 and is incorporated herein by reference. The foregoing description of the material terms of the Amendment does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the exhibit attached hereto.

This Current Report on Form 8-K shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy the common shares discussed herein, nor shall there be any offer, solicitation, or sale of the common shares in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such jurisdiction.

Item 8.01. Other Events.

In connection with entering into the Amendment, the Company filed a prospectus supplement to its effective U.S. registration statement on Form S-3 in order to renew its ‘at-the-market’ program (“ATM”). Pursuant to the prospectus supplement, the Company may, at its discretion from time to time, sell up to $30 million of common shares. The Company has raised approximately $14.2 million during 2017 under its current $20 million ATM with another $5.8 million left until completion.
