Item 4.	Ownership.

 

As of the date hereof, KEENER is the beneficial owner of 5,087,718 shares of Common Stock. Such shares of Common Stock are issuable upon exercise of certain warrants held by KEENER.

 

Accordingly, for the purpose of this Statement:

 

	(a)	Amount beneficially owned by KEENER:  5,087,718 shares of Common Stock of the Issuer.
	(b)	Percent of Class: KEENER beneficially holds 6.80% of the Issuer’s issued and outstanding Common Stock (based on 69,709,075 shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding, as stated by the Issuer in its Preliminary Proxy Statement on Schedule 14A, as filed on February 1, 2017 with the Securities and Exchange Commission, plus the 5,087,718 shares of Common Stock issuable to KEENER upon exercise of certain warrants issued to KEENER on December 21, 2016 and January 25, 2017 (the “Warrants”).   The Warrants are convertible into 5,087,718 shares of Common Stock, however, the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock into which the Warrants are exercisable and which KEENER has the right to acquire beneficial ownership, is limited to the number of shares of Common Stock that, together with all other shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by KEENER, including the shares of Common Stock subject to this Schedule 13G, does not exceed 9.99% of the total outstanding shares of Common Stock.  In addition, KEENER (i) also holds a promissory note (the “Note”), which is currently not convertible and only becomes convertible into shares of Common Stock upon an event of default and would be subject to a beneficial ownership limitation of 9.99% of the total outstanding shares of Common Stock and (ii) will be issued up to $228,947.40 of shares of Common Stock of the Issuer (subject to a beneficial ownership limitation of 9.99%) within five days of the Issuer consummating a public offering ("Origination Shares"), which such public offering is anticipated to occur on or before May 30, 2017.  Since the Notes are not currently convertible and the Origination Shares are not issuable in the next 60 days, KEENER does not beneficially own any of such shares.
