Item 3.

Source and Amounts of Funds or other Consideration.

Pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement with the Issuer, dated as of August 18, 2014 (the August 2014 SPA), the Reporting Persons acquired (i) 2,250,000 shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock of the Issuer (the Series A Preferred Stock) convertible into shares of Common Stock at the initial conversion price of $0.40 per share; and (ii) warrants to purchase 2,812,500 shares of Common Stock with an initial exercise price of $0.50 per share (2014 Warrants). The initial conversion price of $0.40 per share of Series A Preferred Stock was subsequently adjusted to $0.255.

The Series A Preferred Stock entitles its holders to a 6% dividend, payable semi-annually in (i) cash; (ii) at the Issuers option, in shares of the Series A Preferred Stock through the three-year anniversary of August 18, 2014, and from and after such anniversary in shares of Common Stock; or (iii) a combination of cash and Series A Preferred Stock or shares of Common Stock.

---

The Reporting Persons were issued the following additional shares of Series A Preferred Stock as in kind payment of dividends:

 

(i)

50,214 as the dividend for the period ended December 31, 2014;

 

(ii)

67,500 as the dividend for the period ended June 30, 2015;

 

(iii)

71,034 as the dividend for the period ended December 31, 2015;

 

(iv)

24,388 as the dividend for the period ended June 30, 2016; and

 

(v)

25,120 as the dividend for the period ended December 31, 2016.

As of January 1, 2016, the Reporting Persons no longer had the beneficial ownership of: (i) 1,500,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock acquired in 2014, (ii) 125,832 shares of Series A Preferred Stock received as in kind dividends, and (iii) 2014 Warrants to purchase 1,875,000 shares of Common Stock due to HCM no longer retaining investment discretion over these securities.

Pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement with the Issuer dated as of December 28, 2015 (the December 2015 SPA), HCPF was issued (i) a Secured Convertible Promissory Note (the Note) in the principal amount of $150,000 which was initially convertible into 535,714 shares of Common Stock at an initial conversion price of $0.28 per share; and (ii) a warrant to purchase 267,857 shares of Common Stock with an initial exercise price of $0.28 per share (2015 Warrant and together with shares of Series A Preferred Stock, 2014 Warrants, the Note and shares of Common Stock, Issuer Securities).

Issuer Securities were acquired with the working capital of the Reporting Persons in negotiated transactions with the Issuer or in the open market, as described above.

 

Item 4.

Purpose of Transaction.

The Issuer Securities were acquired based on the Reporting Persons belief that the Issuer Securities, when acquired, were undervalued and represented an attractive investment opportunity. Depending upon overall market conditions, other investment opportunities available to the Reporting Persons, and the availability of Issuer Securities at prices that would make the purchase or sale of Issuer Securities desirable, the Reporting Persons may endeavor to increase or decrease their position in the Issuer through, among other things, the purchase or sale of shares of Common Stock on the open market or in private transactions or otherwise, on such terms and at such times as the Reporting Persons may deem advisable.

No Reporting Person has any present plan or proposal which would relate to or result in any of the matters set forth in subparagraphs (a) - (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D except as set forth herein or such as would occur upon or in connection with completion of, or following, any of the actions discussed herein. The Reporting Persons intend to review their investment in the Issuer Securities on a continuing basis. Depending on various factors including, without limitation, the Issuers financial position and investment strategy, the price levels of the shares of Common Stock, 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, engaging in additional communications with management and the Board of the Issuer, engaging in discussions with stockholders of the Issuer and others about the Issuer and the Reporting Persons investment, making proposals to the Issuer concerning changes to the capitalization, ownership structure, board structure (including board composition)

---

or operations of the Issuer, purchasing additional shares of Common Stock or other securities of the Issuer, selling some or all of their Issuer Securities, engaging in short selling of or any hedging or similar transaction with respect to the shares of Common Stock, or changing their intention with respect to any and all matters referred to in Item 4.

Information set forth in Item 3 above is incorporated herein by reference.

HCPF owns directly 2,950,827 shares of Common Stock. Pursuant to investment management agreements, HCM maintains investment and voting power with respect to 2,950,827 shares of Common Stock held by HCPF and other Issuer Securities held by HCPF as described below. However, despite the delegation of investment and voting power to HCM, HCP may be deemed to be the beneficial owner of such securities under Rule 13d-3 of the Act because HCP has the right to acquire investment and voting power through termination of investment management agreements with HCM. HCP is the general partner of HCPF. Mr. Manko is the managing member of both HCM and HCP.

In addition to 2,950,827 shares of Common Stock, as of the date of this Schedule 13D/A, the Reporting Persons beneficially owned: (i) 862,424 shares of Series A Preferred Stock, including 112,424 shares of Series A Preferred Stock received as dividends, that are convertible into 3,382,055 shares of Common Stock; (ii) 2014 Warrants to purchase 937,500 shares of Common Stock; and (iii) 2015 Warrant to purchase 267,857 shares of Common Stock.

However, the Series A Preferred Stock, the 2014 Warrants and 2015 Warrant contain a conversion cap that precludes the holder thereof from converting the shares of Series A Preferred Stock into shares of Common Stock and exercising the 2014 Warrants and 2015 Warrant to the extent that the holder would, after such conversion or exercise, as applicable, beneficially own (as determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Act) in excess of 4.99% (Beneficial Ownership Limitation) of the shares of Common Stock then outstanding. Upon at least 61 days prior notice to the Issuer, a holder may increase or decrease the Beneficial Ownership Limitation, provided that the Beneficial Ownership Limitation in no event exceeds 9.99% of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding upon the conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock or the exercise of the 2014 Warrants or 2015 Warrant.

Therefore, excluded from the Reporting Persons beneficial ownership are 359,867 shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the 2014 Warrants, 2015 Warrant and conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock beneficially owned by the Reporting Persons, due to the Beneficial Ownership Limitation that precludes the holder thereof from exercising the 2014 Warrants and 2015 Warrant or converting shares of Series A Preferred Stock to the extent that the holder would, after such exercise, beneficially own (as determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Act) in excess of 9.99% of the shares of Common Stock then outstanding.

(c) Schedule A attached to this Schedule 13D/A and incorporated herein by reference lists all transaction in the shares of Common Stock effected by the Reporting Persons during the past sixty days.

(d) No person other than the Reporting Persons is known to have the right to receive, or the power to direct the receipt of dividends from, or proceeds from the sale of, the shares of Common Stock.

(e) Not applicable.

 

Item 6.

Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships with Respect to Securities of the Issuer.

HCPF entered into the August 2014 SPA and the December 2015 SPA described in Item 3 above. The description of the August 2014 SPA and December 2015 SPA and related Issuer Securities set forth in Items 3 and 5 is incorporated herein by this reference.
