Pursuant to Rule 13d-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, this Amendment No. 1 (“Amendment No. 1”) amends certain items of the Schedule 13D filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on May 2, 2022, previously filed with the SEC (the “Original Schedule 13D”) relating to the common shares, without par value (as defined in the Original Schedule 13D, the “Common Shares”), of Invacare Corporation, an Ohio corporation (as defined in the Original Schedule 13D, the “Issuer”), which are beneficially owned by Azurite Management LLC, Steven H. Rosen, Crawford United Corporation, Edward F. Crawford and Matthew V. Crawford (as defined in the Original Schedule 13D, collectively, the “Reporting Persons”). This Amendment No. 1 amends the Original Schedule 13D on behalf of the Reporting Persons to furnish the information set forth herein. Except as set forth below, all Items of the Original Schedule 13D remain unchanged. All capitalized terms contained herein but not otherwise defined shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Original Schedule 13D.

Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.

Item 3 of the Original Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented by adding the following:

Between May 9, 2022 and June 6, 2022, Azurite acquired 575,000 Common Shares in the open market with cash on hand for an aggregate purchase price of $652,432.05.

Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer.

The information contained on the cover pages of this Schedule 13D is incorporated herein by reference. Calculations of the percentage ownership of the Common Shares beneficially owned are based on a total of 35,644,565 Common Shares issued and outstanding as of May 6, 2022, as reported on the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed with the SEC by the Issuer on May 9, 2022.

The Reporting Persons comprise a group within the meaning of Section 13(d)(3) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Mr. Rosen and Azurite disclaim beneficial ownership over the 110,200 Common Shares owned by Crawford United and Messrs. Crawford, and Crawford United and Messrs. Crawford disclaim beneficial ownership over the 3,796,558 Common Shares owned by Mr. Rosen and Azurite. However, as a group, the Reporting Persons may be deemed to collectively beneficially own 3,906,758 Common Shares, which represent 11.0% of the Issuer’s outstanding Common Shares.

Azurite is the owner of record of 3,796,558 Common Shares. Mr. Rosen, in his capacity as the sole manager of Azurite, has the ability to indirectly control the decisions of Azurite regarding the vote and disposition of securities held by Azurite, and as such may be deemed to have indirect beneficial ownership of the 3,796,558 Common Shares held by Azurite.

Crawford United is the owner of record of 110,200 Common Shares. Messrs. Crawford, in their capacity as holders of a majority of the voting power of Crawford United and as two of six members of Crawford United’s board of directors (of which Mr. Rosen is also a member), share the ability to indirectly control the decisions of Crawford United regarding the vote and disposition of securities held by Crawford United, and as such may be deemed to have indirect beneficial ownership of the 110,200 Common Shares held by Crawford United. Other than Messrs. Crawford and Rosen, to the best of the knowledge of the Reporting Persons, none of the Covered Persons beneficially owns Common Shares.

For information on the Reporting Persons’ powers to vote and dispose of such shares, see rows 7 to 10 of the cover pages to this Schedule 13D.

Transactions by the Reporting Persons in the Common Shares effected during the past 60 days are set forth in Annex B below and such information is incorporated herein by reference.

To the best knowledge of the Reporting Persons, no one other than the Reporting Persons and their respective members, shareholders and affiliates has the right to receive or the power to direct the receipt of dividends from, or the proceeds from the sale of, the Common Shares reported herein as beneficially owned by the Reporting Persons.

SIGNATURES

After reasonable inquiry and to the best of my knowledge and belief, I certify that the information set forth in this statement is true, complete and correct.
