    This Amendment No. 8 to Schedule 13D (this “Amendment”) amends and supplements the Schedule 13D initially filed on August 29, 2014, as amended and supplemented by Amendment No. 1 thereto filed on June 23, 2015, Amendment No. 2 thereto filed on -----August 2, 2017, Amendment No. 3 thereto filed on June 26, 2019, Amendment No. 4 thereto filed on February 6, 2020, Amendment No. 5 thereto filed on February 13, 2020, Amendment No. 6 thereto filed on August 31, 2020 and Amendment No. 7 thereto filed on February 5, 2021 (as so amended and supplemented, the “Prior Schedule 13D” and, as amended and supplemented by this Amendment, this “Schedule 13D”).  Capitalized terms used without definition in this Amendment have the meanings ascribed thereto in the Prior Schedule 13D.

    Preliminary Note

    Capitalized terms used in this Preliminary Note without definition have the meanings ascribed to them elsewhere in this Schedule 13D.

    Previously Reported and Current Beneficial Ownership Percentages

    Amendment No. 7 to the Prior Schedule 13D reported that as of February 5, 2021, the Reporting Persons beneficially owned an aggregate 1,735,443 Shares; such amount represented 31.9% of the Shares outstanding as of such date.  Subsequently, certain of the Reporting Persons engaged in sales of Shares and a purchase of Shares such that, as of the date hereof, the Reporting Persons beneficially own an aggregate 1,395,339 Shares, representing 21.7% of the Shares outstanding.

    Inadvertent Failure to Report Certain One-Percent Aggregate Dispositions

    Rule 13d-2(a) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), provides that if any material change occurs in the facts set forth in a reporting person’s Schedule 13D, including any material increase or decrease in the percentage of the class beneficially owned, such reporting person promptly shall file an amendment to such Schedule 13D.  Rule 13d-2(a) further provides that an acquisition or disposition of securities in an amount equal to one percent or more of the class of securities shall be deemed “material” for purposes of the foregoing amendment requirement.  Due to inadvertent administrative error, the Reporting Persons failed to file four such amendments to the Prior Schedule 13D to report aggregate dispositions of Shares representing one percent or more of the Shares then outstanding.  This Amendment has the purpose, among other things, of reporting each such one-percent aggregate disposition of Shares attributable to such sales.  See Schedules A-D hereto and their accompanying Explanatory Note. 

    Securities Holdings Resulting in Current Beneficial Ownership of Shares

    As of the date hereof: (i) the Trust holds 962,956 Shares; (ii) the Foundation holds 33,999 Shares; (iii) the Trust holds 160,392 Common Stock Warrants (the “2017 Warrants”), issued on July 7, 2017 and expiring on January 7, 2024, each of which is currently exercisable to purchase 1/40th of a Share, for a total of up to 4,009 Shares; and (iv) the Trust holds 3,155 Series B Warrants (the “2019 Series B Warrants”), issued on November 19, 2019 and expiring on May 19, 2027, each of which is currently exercisable to purchase 125 Shares, for a total of up to 394,375 Shares.

    The 2017 Warrants and the 2019 Series B Warrants (together, the “Exercisable Warrants”) are exercisable within 60 days of the date hereof.  Accordingly, pursuant to Rule 13d-3(d) under the Exchange Act, the Trust currently is deemed to have beneficial ownership of the aggregate 398,384 Shares acquirable upon exercise of the Exercisable Warrants held by the Trust.

    Securities Holdings Not Resulting in Current Beneficial Ownership of Shares

    In addition, the Trust holds 335,570 Common Stock Warrants (the “2023 Warrants”), issued on May 5, 2023 and expiring on November 6, 2028, each of which becomes exercisable on November 6, 2023 to purchase one Share.  Because the 2023 Warrants are not exercisable within 60 days of the date hereof, the Trust is not currently deemed to have beneficial ownership of the aggregate 335,570 Shares acquirable upon exercise of the 2023 Warrants held by the Trust.

    Explanatory Note to Schedules A-D

    As stated in the Preliminary Note, due to inadvertent administrative error, prior to this Amendment the Reporting Persons failed to file four amendments to Schedule 13D, each of which was required, pursuant to Rule 13d-2(a), to report aggregate dispositions of Shares by the Reporting Persons representing one percent or more of the Shares then outstanding (each such one-percent aggregate disposition, a “One-Percent Disposition”).

    The first such One-Percent Disposition occurred due to sales of Shares by the Trust culminating with a sale on October 18, 2022.  The second such One-Percent Disposition occurred due to sales of Shares by the Trust culminating with a sale on October 28, 2022.  The third such One-Percent Disposition occurred due to sales of Shares by the Trust culminating with a sale on December 2, 2022.  The fourth such One-Percent Disposition occurred due to sales of Shares by the Trust culminating with a sale on December 14, 2022.

    Schedules A-D beginning on the next page provide, with respect to each of the four amendments to Schedule 13D that were not filed with respect to a One-Percent Disposition, the sixty-day pre-amendment trading history required by Item 5(c) of Schedule 13D.
