During the last five years, none of the Reporting Persons or the Schedule I Persons has (i) been convicted in a criminal proceeding (excluding minor traffic violations or similar misdemeanors), or (ii) been a party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative body of competent jurisdiction and as a result of such proceeding was or is subject to a judgment, decree or final order enjoining future violations of, or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to, federal or state securities laws or finding any violations with respect to such laws.

Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer
(a)-(b) Item 5(a)-(b) is hereby amended by adding the following at the end thereof:
Based upon information contained in Amendment No. 3 to the Company’s Form S-1 dated October 13, 2016 (as so amended, the “Form S-1”), there were 54,284,296 shares of Common Stock outstanding as of October 12, 2016. As of October 12, 2016 and prior to giving effect to any shares that may be purchased pursuant to the Rights Offering or the Backstop Agreement (each as defined in Item 6 below), the Reporting Persons may be deemed to share beneficial ownership of 13,509,722 shares of Common Stock, representing approximately 24.9% of the Common Stock deemed to be outstanding.
The Reporting Persons have shared power to vote and dispose of the shares of Common Stock that they own.
Based on documents publicly filed, Paul G. Savas, Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer of M&F, MacAndrews & Forbes, and ST Holdings One, may be deemed to beneficially own 196,840 shares of Common Stock (which includes 75,000 shares of Common Stock deemed to be beneficially owned by Mr. Savas but not outstanding).
Item 6. Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships With Respect to Securities of the Issuer
Item 6 is hereby amended by adding the following at the end thereof:
On October 13, 2016, ST Holdings One and certain other parties (together with ST Holdings One, the “Backstop Parties”) and the Company entered into an investment agreement, or “backstop agreement” (the “Backstop Agreement”), relating to the Company’s proposed rights offering with respect to up to $35,284,792 of Common Stock (the “Rights Offering”). The Rights Offering is described in the Form S-1. Under the terms of the Backstop Agreement, ST Holdings One agreed to purchase, pursuant to a separate private placement, 79.744% of any unsubscribed shares of Common Stock offered in the Rights Offering. The subscription price for such shares will be equal to the subscription price applicable to all shareholders under the Rights Offering, which is the lesser of (i) $1.50 per share of Common Stock and (ii) 85% of the volume weighted average price per share of Common Stock as reported on the OTC Pink Sheets on the expiration date of the Rights Offering. The Backstop Parties, taken together, will receive a fee of $1.76 million, or 5% of the gross proceeds of the rights offering, for providing the backstop commitment, payable, at the option of the Company, in cash or stock or, subject to the mutual agreement of the parties, other equity securities; ST Holdings One will be entitled to 79.744% of such fee.
The foregoing description of the terms of the Backstop Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Backstop Agreement, which is attached hereto as Exhibit 35, and is incorporated into this Item 6 by reference.
The amount of Common Stock to be purchased by ST Holdings One pursuant to the terms of the Backstop Agreement will vary depending on (i) the number of shares of Common Stock purchased by the Company’s shareholders through the exercise of rights in the Rights Offering and (ii) the determination of the subscription price per share in accordance with the formula described above. ST Holdings One expects to fund the purchase price for any shares that may be purchased pursuant to the Rights Offering or the Backstop Agreement from cash on hand.
On September 30, 2016, the Company and MacAndrews & Forbes each filed a Notification and Report Form with the United States Federal Trade Commission and the United States Department of Justice under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended (the “HSR Act”), in respect of the transactions contemplated by the Backstop Agreement. The parties received early termination of the HSR Act waiting period for the transactions on October 13, 2016.
The Reporting Persons may, from time to time, pledge shares of Common Stock and/or interests of intermediate holding companies between the Company and M&F to secure obligations of the Reporting Persons or their affiliates.
