Item 1. Security and Issuer

This Amended Statement of Beneficial Ownership on Schedule 13D (Amendment 1) amends and supplements the Statement of Beneficial Ownership on Schedule 13D filed by Fengate Trident LP, Fengate Trident GP Inc., and Fengate Capital Management Ltd. (collectively, the Reporting Persons) on May 8, 2017 (the Initial Schedule 13D) in connection with the parties and matters referenced therein and herein, with respect to the Common Stock, $.001 par value (the Common Stock) of Trident Brands, Inc. (the Issuer). This Schedule 13D is being filed as a result of the events described in Item 4 below. Any capitalized terms used and not defined in this Amendment 1 shall have the meanings set forth in the Initial Schedule 13D to which this Amendment 1 relates. Only those items that are hereby reported are amended; all other items, including previously filed exhibits, remain unchanged and are incorporated by reference herein.

Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration

Funds for the purchase of the Common Stock and Convertible Notes reported in this Schedule 13D were derived from invested assets of the Labourers Pension Fund of Central and Eastern Canada. A total of $10,900,000 was paid to acquire the Common Stock and Convertible Notes. None of the shares of Common Stock or Convertible Notes were acquired on margin, or otherwise using borrowed funds or pursuant to any loan or credit arrangement.

Item 4. Purpose of Transaction

This report on Schedule 13D is being filed to report holdings which, as a result of administrative error, were not identified as requiring a filing on Schedule 13D at the time such reports were due. Upon discovering this oversight, the reporting person promptly took steps to file this Schedule 13D, which reflects information that should have been reported at May 9, 2017.

The Common Stock and Convertible Notes have been acquired for investment purposes in the ordinary course of the Reporting Persons investment activities, and have not been acquired with any purpose of, or with the effect of, changing or influencing the control of the Issuer, or in connection with or as a participant in any transaction having such purpose or effect. From time to time the Reporting Persons may acquire additional securities of the Issuer, or sell securities of the Issuer.

On May 9, 2017, pursuant to the terms of the securities purchase agreement (SPA) and the convertible note included as an annex thereto (the Convertible Note), described in detail in Item 4 of the Initial Schedule 13D, the Reporting Persons provided a second tranche of funding in the amount of $4,400,000 with an interest rate of 8% per annum and convertible into Common Stock at a conversion price of $.60 per share. A copy of the SPA, which included as an annex the form of Convertible Note, was attached as Exhibit 10.1 to the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by the Issuer on October 4, 2016, and was incorporated by reference in the Initial Schedule 13D and as Exhibit 99.2 thereto, and is incorporated by reference in this Amendment 1 and as Exhibit 99.2 hereto. A form of the Convertible Note, as amended and restated on May 8, 2017, is attached as Exhibit 99.3 to this Amendment 1 and is incorporated by reference herein.

As of the date of this Amendment 1, the Reporting Persons have no plans or proposals which relate to or would result in (i) an extraordinary corporate transaction, such as a merger, reorganization or liquidation, involving the issuer or any of its subsidiaries; (ii) a sale or transfer of a material amount of assets of the issuer or any of its subsidiaries; (iii) any change in the present board of directors or management of the issuer, including any plans or proposals to change the number or term of directors or to fill any existing vacancies on the board; (iv) any material change in the present capitalization or dividend policy of the issuer; (v) any other material change in the issuers business or corporate structure; (vi) changes in the issuers charter, bylaws or instruments corresponding thereto or other actions which may impede the acquisition of control of the issuer by any person; (vii) causing a class of securities of the issuer to be delisted from a national securities exchange or to cease to be authorized to be quoted in an inter-dealer quotation system of a registered national securities association; (viii) a class of equity securities of the issuer becoming eligible for termination of registration pursuant to section 12(g)(4) of the Act; or (ix) any action similar to any of those enumerated above.

Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer

 

(a)-(b) Incorporated by reference to Items (7)(11) and (13) of the cover page relating to each Reporting Person.

 

(c) Other than as reported herein, the Reporting Persons have engaged in no other transactions in the Issuers Common Stock since the filing of the Initial 13D.

 

(d) Except as set forth herein, no other person is known to have the right to receive or the power to direct the receipt of dividends from, or the proceeds from the sale of, the securities of the Issuer reported on in this Amendment 1.

 

(e) Not applicable.

CUSIP No. 89616C201    

 

Item 6. Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships with Respect to Securities of the Issuer

Except for the matters discussed in this Amendment 1, the Initial Schedule 13D, and any exhibits thereto or hereto, there are no contracts, arrangements or understandings among the Reporting Persons or with any other persons with respect to any securities of the issuer.

Item 7. Material to be Filed as Exhibits

 

Exhibit 99.1  

  Joint Filing Agreement dated May 8, 2017, by and among the Reporting Persons (incorporated by reference to Exhibit 99.1 to the Initial Schedule 13D filed by the Reporting Persons on May 8, 2017).
