Merger Agreement

On March 22, 2019, Starfire and Merger Sub entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the Merger Agreement) with the Issuer, pursuant to which, and subject to the conditions thereof, Merger Sub will merge with and into the Issuer, with the Issuer continuing as the surviving corporation in the merger (the Merger). High River and Koala, which are affiliates of Starfire, own approximately 52.7% of the issued and outstanding Common Stock of the Issuer as of the date hereof, and approximately 98% of the 13% Redeemable Series J Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share (the Series J Preferred), of the Issuer.

The Issuers Board of Directors, acting on the unanimous recommendation of a special committee of independent directors, approved the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, and recommended that the Issuers stockholders adopt the Merger Agreement.

Stockholders of the Issuer will be asked to vote on the adoption of the Merger Agreement and the Merger at a special stockholders meeting (Stockholders Meeting) that will be held on a date to be announced. The closing of the Merger is subject to the approval by the affirmative vote of the holders of (i) at least a majority of the issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock outstanding and entitled to vote thereon and (ii) at least a majority of the issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock, excluding any shares of Common Stock owned by Starfire, Merger Sub, Barberry, Koala, High River or any of their respective affiliates, outstanding and entitled to vote thereon at the Stockholders Meeting.

At the effective time of the Merger, (a) each share of Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the effective time (other than (i) shares of Common Stock held by High River and Koala, (ii) shares of Common Stock owned by Starfire, Merger Sub or any of their respective subsidiaries or affiliates, (iii) shares of Common Stock owned by the Issuer or any of its subsidiaries, and (iv) shares of Common Stock as to which stockholders of the Issuer have validly submitted and not validly withdrawn or otherwise lost or failed to perfect a demand for appraisal rights pursuant to Section 262 of the Delaware General Corporation Law (the DGCL)) shall be converted automatically into the right to receive an amount in cash equal to $0.86 per share of Common Stock, net to the seller in cash, without interest, and (b) each share of Series J Preferred issued and outstanding immediately prior to the effective time (other than (i) shares of Series J Preferred held by High River and Koala, (ii) shares of Series J Preferred owned by Starfire, Merger Sub or any of their respective subsidiaries or affiliates, (iii) shares of Series J Preferred owned by the Issuer or any of its subsidiaries, and (iv) shares of Series J Preferred as to which stockholders of the Issuer have validly submitted and not validly withdrawn or otherwise lost or failed to perfect a demand for appraisal rights pursuant to Section 262 of the DGCL) shall be converted automatically into the right to receive an amount in cash equal to the Redemption Price (as defined Section 11(i) of Exhibit A to the Issuers Certificate of Incorporation, including all amendments thereto) for each such share of Series J Preferred, net to the seller in cash, without interest. Starfire intends to use funds from its working capital to pay for the shares of Common Stock and to pay the Redemption Price for the shares of Series J Preferred in the Merger.

The Merger Agreement contains representations, warranties and covenants customary for this type of transaction. In addition, the Merger Agreement includes certain termination rights of Starfire and the Issuer, including that either Starfire or the Issuer may terminate the Merger Agreement if the Merger is not consummated by November 15, 2019.

Each partys obligation to consummate the Merger is also subject to certain other customary conditions, including (i) the absence of any legal restraint with respect to the Merger, (ii) the accuracy of the other parties representations and warranties contained in the Merger Agreement (subject to certain qualifiers, as applicable), and (iii) the other parties compliance with their covenants and agreements contained in the Merger Agreement in all material respects. Starfire and Merger Subs obligation to close the Merger is also conditioned on there not having occurred a Material Adverse Effect (as defined in the Merger Agreement) at the Issuer. The Merger Agreement does not contain a financing condition.

If the Merger is consummated, the Common Stock will cease to be quoted on the OTCQB Venture Market of the OTC Markets Group and will be deregistered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

The foregoing description of the Merger Agreement is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Merger Agreement, which is filed as Exhibit 1 to this Schedule 13D and incorporated herein by reference.
