The Reporting Person has acquired such securities for his own account without any intention to resell or engage in a distribution thereof.

In connection with the closing of the transactions contemplated by the Stock Purchase Agreement, Reeg Medical entered into a Voting Agreement dated as of December 19, 2016 (the Voting Agreement), by and among the Company, Reeg Medical, NC 143, Christopher Pratt, D.O. (Pratt) and Robert Donehew (Donehew, and collectively with Reeg Medical, NC 143, and Pratt, the Voting Group), pursuant to which each member of the Voting Group, in their capacities as stockholders of the Issuer, agreed, among other things, to vote all securities of the Issuer owned by it, or over which such stockholder has voting control, to cause the size of the board of directors of the Issuer (the Board) to be increased to five members, and to cause three persons designated by Reeg Medical and NC 143 and two persons designated by Pratt and Donehew to be elected as directors of the Issuer. The Voting Agreement has a term ending on June 15, 2017, subject to earlier termination in certain circumstances. Thus, the Reporting Person has agreed to act in concert with NC 143 and its controlling person, Mark W. Brooks (Brooks), Pratt and Donehew with respect to the voting of the shares of Common Stock owned and controlled by the members of the Voting Group for the purposes set forth in the Voting Agreement, and the members of the Voting Group may be deemed to have formed a group within the meaning of Section 13(d)(3) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and Rule 13d-5(b)(1) thereunder. The Voting Group and each member thereof may be deemed to beneficially own the 13,089,895 shares of Common Stock covered by this Schedule 13D, as described in Item 5 below. Brooks, Pratt and Donehew have each filed a separate Schedule 13D with respect to their respective beneficial interests in the Common Stock of the Issuer. The Reporting Person disclaims beneficial ownership of all shares of Common Stock owned by the members of the Voting Group other than the 4,650,000 shares that Reeg Medical owns of record or has the right to acquire as described in Item 3.

The foregoing description of the Voting Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Voting Agreement, which is filed as Exhibit 2 hereto and attached as Exhibit 4.1 to the Issuers Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on December 23, 2016, and is incorporated herein by reference.

The foregoing description of the amendment to the Bylaws of the Issuer (the Amendment) is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Amendment, which is filed as Exhibit 3 hereto and attached as Exhibit 3.1 to the Issuers Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on December 23, 2016, and is incorporated herein by reference.

In addition, in connection with the closing of the transactions contemplated by the Stock Purchase Agreement, effective as of December 19, 2016, the Board appointed the Reporting Person as Chief Executive Officer of the Issuer and Brooks as Chairman of the Board, and the Board elected the Reporting Person, Brooks and William E. McLaughlin, III to be members of the Board. Those three persons were designated for election to the Board by Reeg Medical and NC 143 pursuant to the Voting Agreement. Effective as of that same date, Pratt resigned as Chief Executive Officer and Donehew resigned as Chief Operating Officer and Chairman of the Board of the Issuer, and Rusty Shelton and Randall L. Dei resigned as directors of the Issuer. Pratt and Donehew remain directors of the Issuer.

The Reporting Person may in the future seek to cause the Issuer to implement certain changes in the capitalization of the Issuer, which may include, for example, a reverse stock split or similar transaction. The Reporting Person does not have any definite plans regarding any such transaction as of the date of this Schedule 13D.

Except as described above, the Reporting Person does not have, as of the date of this Schedule 13D, any plans or proposals that relate to or would result in any of the actions or events specified in clauses (a) through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D.

Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer.

(a) The Reporting Person may be deemed to beneficially own an aggregate of 13,089,895 shares of Common Stock of the Issuer, consisting of (i) 4,000,000 issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock acquired under the Stock Purchase Agreement and held of record by Reeg Medical, (ii) 650,000 shares of Common Stock that Reeg Medical will have the right to acquire on January 16, 2017 upon the conversion of the Reeg Note, (iii) 5,000,000 issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock acquired under the Stock Purchase Agreement and held of record by NC 143, (iv) 1,296,917 shares of Common Stock that NC 143 will have the right to acquire on January 16, 2017 upon the conversion of that certain Amended and Restated Promissory Note, dated October 19, 2016, in the principal amount of $50,000 (NC 143 Note #1) and that certain Promissory Note, dated October 19, 2016, in the principal amount of $50,000 (together with NC 143 Note #1, the NC 143 Notes), (v) 1,175,476 issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock held directly or indirectly by Pratt, (vi) 300,000 shares of Common Stock that Pratt has the right to acquire pursuant to the exercise of outstanding stock options, (vii) 367,502 issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock held directly or indirectly by Donehew, and (viii) 300,000 shares of Common Stock that Donehew has the right to acquire pursuant to the exercise of outstanding stock options. The information regarding the number of shares of Common Stock that NC 143, Pratt and Donehew own and have the right to acquire has been provided to the Reporting Person by NC 143, Pratt and Donehew, respectively.

The Voting Group and each member thereof may be deemed to beneficially own the 13,089,895 shares of Common Stock as described in the preceding paragraph. Such shares represent approximately 71.0% of the 18,437,725 outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Issuer calculated in accordance with Rule 13d-3(d) based on the number of shares issued and outstanding on the date of this Schedule 13D and the number of shares that members of the Voting Group have the right to acquire within 60 days hereof. The number of shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding on the date hereof is based on 6,890,808 total outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Issuer as reported in the Issuers Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2016, filed with the SEC on November 14, 2016, plus 9,000,000 shares of Common Stock of the Issuer issued to Reeg Medical and NC 143 pursuant to the Stock Purchase Agreement.

(b) The Reporting Person is the sole shareholder, the sole director and the sole officer of Reeg Medical and owns 100% of the shares of the outstanding stock of Reeg Medical. As such, the Reporting Person can cause Reeg Medical to vote or direct the vote or to dispose or direct the disposition of the shares of Common Stock owned by Reeg Medical. The Reporting Person has sole voting and dispositive power with respect to the 4,650,000 shares of Common Stock that Reeg Medical owns directly or will have the right to acquire pursuant to the conversion of the Reeg Note, and shared voting power with respect to the remaining 8,439,895 shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the other members of the Voting Group. The Reporting Person does not have shared dispositive power with respect to any shares. The 4,650,000 shares with respect to which the Reporting Person has sole voting and dispositive power constitute 28.1% of the outstanding Common Stock of the Issuer, calculated in accordance with Rule 13d-3(d).

Based on information provided to the Reporting Person by the other members of the Voting Group, the Reporting Person believes that such members have the power to vote or direct the vote or to dispose or direct the disposition of the shares of Common Stock covered by this Schedule 13D as follows:

Brooks has sole voting and dispositive power with respect to the 6,296,917 shares of Common Stock that NC 143 owns directly or will have the right to acquire pursuant to the conversion of the NC 143 Notes, shared voting power with respect to the remaining 6,792,978 shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the other members of the Voting Group and no shared dispositive power with respect to any shares.

---

(c) On December 10, 2016, the Issuer granted an option to Pratt covering 300,000 shares of Common Stock and an option to Donehew covering 300,000 shares of Common Stock, in each case exercisable from and after the date of grant at an exercise price of $0.11 per share. Each of Pratt and Donehew was a director and executive officer of the Issuer at the time such options were granted. Except for such option grants and the transactions described in Item 3 and Item 4, the Reporting Person has not effected, and to the Reporting Persons knowledge no other member of the Voting Group has effected, any transactions in shares of Common Stock during the 60 days preceding the date hereof.

(d) Except as otherwise described herein, no person other than the Reporting Person and the other members of the Voting Group has the right to receive or the power to direct the receipt of dividends from, or the proceeds from the sale of, the shares of Common Stock reported on this Schedule 13D.

(e) Not applicable.

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

The responses to Items 3 and 4 of this Schedule 13D are incorporated herein by reference.

In connection with the transactions contemplated by the Stock Purchase Agreement, the Issuer entered into an Amended and Restated Registration Rights Agreement dated as of December 19, 2016 with Reeg Medical and NC 143 (the A&R Registration Rights Agreement), which superseded that certain Registration Rights Agreement, dated May 28, 2014, by and among the Issuer and certain other stockholders of the Issuer. Stockholders of the Issuer who had continuing rights under such prior Registration Rights Agreement waived and agreed to terminate those rights in connection with the closing of the transactions under the Stock Purchase Agreement. The A&R Registration Rights Agreement provides, among other things, that Reeg Medical and NC 143 may require the Issuer to register on Form S-1 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, any or all of the shares of Common Stock of the Issuer issued to Reeg Medical and NC 143 in connection with the Stock Purchase Agreement. Reeg Medical and NC 143 also have the right to require the Issuer to file an unlimited number of registration statements on Form S-3, once the Issuer becomes eligible to use such form, covering registrable shares of Common Stock owned by Reeg Medical and NC 143 and to exercise piggyback rights to include their registrable shares in registration statements filed by the Issuer for its own account or for the account of any other stockholders.

The foregoing description of the A&R Registration Rights Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the A&R Registration Rights Agreement, which is filed as Exhibit 4 hereto and attached as Exhibit 10.2 to the Issuers Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on December 23, 2016, and is incorporated herein by reference.

Other than as described in this Schedule 13D, there are no contracts, arrangements, understandings or relationships between the Reporting Person and any other person with respect to the securities of the Issuer.
