Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.  
     
  The funds for the purchase of the 244,561,824 Shares beneficially owned by the Reporting Persons came from the working capital of the Master Fund, which is the direct owner of the Shares and the Warrants (as defined in Item 4 below).  The net investment costs (including commissions, if any) of the Shares beneficially owned by the Reporting Persons is approximately $5,998,000.  No borrowed funds were used to purchase the Shares or the Warrants, other than any borrowed funds used for working capital purposes (including certain leverage arrangements) in the ordinary course of business.  
     

 

Item 4. Purpose of Transaction.  
     
 

On June 13, 2019, the Issuer and the Master Fund entered into a securities purchase agreement (the “Securities Purchase Agreement”) pursuant to which the Master Fund acquired from the Issuer in a private placement (the “Private Placement”): (i) 13,000,000 Shares; (ii) 315,000,000 Series A Warrants of the Issuer (the “Series A Warrants”); (iii) 315,000,000 Series B Warrants of the Issuer (the “Series B Warrants”); and (iv) 302,000,000 Series C Prefunded Warrants of the Issuer (the “Series C Prefunded Warrants”, and collectively with the Series A Warrants and Series B Warrants, the “Warrants”). The Master Fund also agreed to vote all of its Shares, by written consent or at a meeting, as of the applicable record date in favor of the Issuer’s plan to effectuate a reverse stock split (the “Reverse Stock Split”).

 

The Warrants are currently exercisable; provided, however, that until the effectuation date of the Reverse Stock Split, the Issuer is not required to issue upon exercise of the Warrants a number of Shares that, when aggregated with any other Shares issued: (i) pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement; (ii) upon prior exercise of the Warrants issued pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement; and (iii) pursuant to any warrants issued to any registered broker-dealer as a fee in connection with the issuance of Shares pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement, would exceed 247,161,824, subject to adjustment for reverse and forward stock splits, stock dividends, stock combinations and other similar transactions of the Shares that occur after the date of the Securities Purchase Agreement.

 

The exercise prices for the Warrants are as follows: (i) $0.022 per share in respect of each Series A Warrant; (ii) $0.02 in respect of each Series B Warrant; and (iii) $0.001 in respect of each Series C Prefunded Warrants, in each case, subject to adjustment pursuant to the terms of the relevant Warrant. The terms of the Warrants are as follows: (i) the Series A Warrants have a term of five years following the effectuation of the Reverse Stock Split; (ii) the Series B Warrants have a term of one year following the effectuation of the Reverse Stock Split; and (iii) the Series C Prefunded Warrants have a perpetual term. None of the Warrants are subject to beneficial ownership blocker provisions; therefore, the Warrants may be exercised, in whole or in part, at any time after effectuation of the Reverse Stock Split.

 

In connection with the Private Placement, the Issuer and the Master Fund also entered into a registration rights agreement (the “Registration Rights Agreement”), pursuant to which the Issuer agreed to file a registration statement (“Registration Statement”) with the SEC within 60 days after the date of the Private Placement in order to register the Shares acquired by the Master Fund pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement, as well as the Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants. The Issuer also agreed to use its best efforts to cause the Registration Statement to be declared effective within 90 days after the date of the Private Placement, or, in the event of a “full review” by the SEC, within 120 days after the date of the Private Placement.

 

 

 

The foregoing was a summary of certain material terms of the: (i) Securities Purchase Agreement; (ii) Series A Warrant; (iii) Series B Warrant; (iv) Series C Prefunded Warrant; and (v) Form of Registration Rights Agreement. The foregoing descriptions are not, and do not purport to be, complete and, except as otherwise described above, are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of the forms of those documents, which have been filed as Exhibits B, C, D, E and F, respectively, and are incorporated herein by reference.

 

The Reporting Persons purchased the Shares for investment in the ordinary course of their investment activities based on the Reporting Persons’ belief that the Shares, when purchased, were undervalued and represented an attractive investment opportunity. The Reporting Persons intend to review their investment in the Issuer on a continuing basis. Depending on various factors including, without limitation, the Issuer’s financial position, the price levels of the Shares, conditions in the securities markets and general economic and industry conditions, the Reporting Persons may in the future take such actions with respect to their investment in the Issuer as they deem appropriate including, without limitation, participating on the Issuer’s board of directors (the “Board”), engaging in communications with management and/or the Board, engaging in discussions with stockholders of the Issuer and others about the Issuer and the Reporting Persons’ investment, reshaping the Issuer's corporate strategy, recommending business development transactions, proposing changes to management, operations and the structure of the Board (including the composition of the Board), purchasing additional Shares, selling some or all of their Shares, engaging in short selling of or any hedging or similar transaction with respect to the Shares, or changing their intention with respect to any and all matters referred to in subparagraphs (a) - (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D.

 

Except as otherwise set forth herein, the Reporting Persons do not have any present plans or proposals which would relate to, or result in, the matters set forth in subparagraphs (a) – (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D. However, subject to market conditions and in compliance with applicable securities laws, the Reporting Persons reserve the right, at a later date, to effect one or more of such changes or transactions in the number of Shares they may be deemed to beneficially own in open-market or privately negotiated transactions, on such terms and at such times as the Reporting Persons may deem advisable.

 
     

 

Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer.  
     
  (a) - (d)

As of the date hereof, each of the Reporting Persons may be deemed to be the beneficial owner of 244,561,824 Shares, constituting 94.9% of the Shares, based upon 257,617,057 Shares outstanding as of the date hereof, as adjusted for the Warrants beneficially owned by the Reporting Persons.
