The address of the principal executive offices of the Issuer is Unit 2B, 431 Roberts Road, Subiaco, Western Australia 6008, Australia.
ITEM 2. IDENTITY AND BACKGROUND.

ITEM 3. SOURCE AND AMOUNT OF FUNDS OR OTHER CONSIDERATION.
On August 24, 2012, the Trust purchased 63,238 of the Issuer’s A$65 face-value Series 2 Convertible Notes, which bore interest at a rate of 4.00% per annum, payable semi-annually, and had a conversion ratio of one note to four Ordinary Shares, resulting in a conversion price of A$16.50 per share (the “Series 2 Notes”), from SLW International, LLC, an entity owned by Stephen L. Way, the creator of the Trust for the benefit of his minor children. The Trust purchased such Series 2 Notes for the purchase price of $402,187.50, 10% of which was paid in cash with funds contributed to the Trust by Mr. Way and the remaining 90% of which was borrowed by the Trust from Muragai Financial, LLC, an entity also controlled by Mr. Way. Such loan was evidenced by a promissory note bearing interest at the rate of 0.25% and becoming due on August 1, 2015 and was secured by such Series 2 Notes held by the Trust.
On November 23, 2012, the Issuer and the holders of the Series 2 Notes effected an exchange of all outstanding Series 2 Notes for newly issued Series 3 Convertible Notes of the Issuer with a face value of A$65, which bear no coupon/interest payments and have a conversion ratio of one note to 433 Ordinary Shares, resulting in a conversion price of A$0.15 per share (the “Series 3 Notes”), in a transaction approved by the holders of the Issuer’s Ordinary Shares. As a result of this exchange, the Trust received 63,238 Series 3 Notes.
On December 20, 2013, the Trust, SLW International, LLC, and Westcliff Trust entered into a Note Purchase Agreement with Noble Haus Asia Ltd. (“Noble Haus”) pursuant to which the Trust agreed to dispose of all of its Series 3 Notes to Noble Haus. Such transaction was consummated on February 3, 2014.
