Item 3.  Source or Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.

The Issuer's 5.00% Senior Unsecured Convertible Notes due 2023 (the "5.00% Convertible Notes") held by the Reporting Persons were acquired in connection with the consummation of a series of transactions to effect a recapitalization of the Issuer (the "Recapitalization Transactions") including the settlement of an Offer to Exchange, dated April 18, 2017 (the "Exchange Offer"), which, subject to certain conditions, provided that for each $1,000 in principal amount of the Issuer's 8.50% Senior Unsecured Convertible Notes due 2019 (the "8.50% Convertible Notes") accepted for exchange by the Issuer in the Exchange Offer, holders of such 8.50% Convertible Notes would receive (i) $1,000 in principal amount of 5.00% Convertible Notes plus an additional amount of 5.00% Convertible Notes equal to accrued and unpaid interest through and excluding the settlement date of the Exchange Offer on the 8.50% Convertible Notes tendered and accepted by the Issuer in the Exchange Offer and (ii) the right to subscribe in a rights offering (the "Rights Offering") for 500 shares of Common Stock at a price of $0.20 per share.  The warrants to purchase Common Stock (the "Common Stock Purchase Warrants") held by the Reporting Persons were acquired in connection with the Rights Purchase Agreement (as defined below), whereby rights to purchase shares of Common Stock in the Rights Offering were sold in exchange for the right to receive Common Stock Purchase Warrants.


Item 4.  Purpose of Transaction.

The 5.00% Convertible Notes and Common Stock Purchase Warrants were acquired by the Reporting Persons in connection with the consummation of the Recapitalization Transactions.  The Reporting Persons still continue to hold $500 in aggregate principal amount of 8.50% Convertible Notes that were not accepted for exchange in the Exchange Offer.  As part of the Recapitalization Transactions, pursuant to the Designation Agreement (as defined below), Mr. Knapp was appointed to the board of directors of the Issuer (the "Board"), effective as of July 28, 2017.

Subject to Mr. Knapp's duties as a member of the Board, depending on various factors, including the Issuer's financial position and strategic direction, the price levels of the securities of the Issuer, other investment opportunities available to the Reporting Persons, the availability and cost of debt financing, the availability of potential business combination and other strategic transactions, conditions in the capital markets and general economic and industry conditions, the Reporting Persons may in the future take such actions with respect to their investments in the Issuer as they deem appropriate, including acquiring or disposing of securities of the Issuer, entering into financial instruments or other agreements which increase or decrease the Reporting Persons' economic exposure with respect to their investments in the Issuer, engaging in any hedging or similar transactions with respect to such holdings and/or otherwise changing their intention with respect to any and all matters referred to in Item 4 of Schedule 13D.



 
Item 5.  Interest in Securities of the Issuer.

a.
As of July 28, 2017, the Reporting Persons are not beneficial owners of the Issuer's Common Stock.  Notwithstanding, as of immediately after the consummation of the Recapitalization Transactions, the Reporting Persons held (a) $30,352,665 in aggregate principal amount of 5.00% Convertible Notes, (b) $500 in aggregate principal amount of 8.50% Convertible Notes and (c) Common Stock Purchase Warrants to purchase up to 2,000,000 shares of Common Stock. If fully convertible or exercisable, the Reporting Persons would own (i) 15,176,333 shares of Common Stock in respect of the conversion of the 5.00% Convertible Notes (representing 9.57% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock), (ii) 75 shares of Common Stock in respect of the conversion of the 8.50% Convertible Notes (representing less than .01% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock) and (iii) 2,000,000 shares of Common Stock in respect of the exercise of the Common Stock Purchase Warrants (representing 1.38% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock), and if all 8.50% Convertible Notes, 5.00% Convertible Notes and Common Stock Purchase Warrants held by P Fund and Master Fund were converted or exercised, the Reporting Persons would own, in the aggregate, 17,176,408 shares of Common Stock representing 10.70% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock.1  As of immediately after the consummation of the Recapitalization Transactions, P Fund held $21,447,283 in aggregate principal amount of 5.00% Convertible Notes, representing 10,723,642 shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of such 5.00% Convertible Notes and a Common Stock Purchase Warrant exercisable into 1,413,206 shares of Common Stock.  As of immediately after the consummation of the Recapitalization Transactions, Master Fund held $8,905,382 in aggregate principal amount of 5.00% Convertible Notes, representing 4,452,691 shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of such 5.00% Convertible Notes, $500 in aggregate principal amount of 8.50% Convertible Notes, representing 75 shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of such 8.50% Convertible Notes and a Common Stock Purchase Warrant exercisable into 586,794 shares of Common Stock.  By virtue of his relationship with P Fund, Master Fund and Ironsides, Mr. Knapp may have been deemed to be the beneficial owner of the 8.50% Convertible Notes held by Master Fund, the 5.00% Convertible Notes held by P Fund and Master Fund and the Common Stock Purchase Warrants held by P Fund and Master Fund.  The conversion of the 5.00% Convertible Notes and the 8.50% Convertible Notes and the exercise of the Common Stock Purchase Warrants are subject to a limitation imposed by Florida State law that voids any conversion of the 5.00% Convertible Notes and the 8.50% Convertible Notes and the exercise of the Common Stock Purchase Warrants to the extent that, after such conversion or exercise, the holder thereof would, directly or indirectly, own more than 10% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock, unless such holder has first applied for and obtained regulatory approval from the Florida Office of Insurance Regulation.  The Reporting Persons have not sought, and have no intention to seek, such approval, and as such, the Reporting Persons may convert the 5.00% Convertible Notes and/or the 8.50% Convertible Notes and exercise the Common Stock Purchase Warrants into no more than approximately 9,048,289 shares of Common Stock.



1 Based on 143,413,844 shares of Common Stock outstanding as of immediately after the consummation of the Recapitalization Transactions, as provided by the Issuer.

b.
By reason of his control of Ironsides and the General Partner of each of Master Fund and P Fund as described in Item 2, Mr. Knapp may be deemed to possess the power to vote and dispose of the securities directly owned by Master Fund and P Fund.
