that it continues to evaluate strategic opportunities across a broad array of industries for the purpose of facilitating an acquisition by the Company of one or more operating businesses. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">During the three months ended September&nbsp;30, 2015, the Company identified a potential acquisition opportunity and participated in a
competitive sale process with respect to an operating division of a public company. However, we were not able to reach a definitive agreement for the transaction and discussions ceased on October&nbsp;13, 2015. The Company expended time and
resources to explore this potential acquisition, including the incurrence of reasonable fees and expenses for financial advisory, legal and consulting services. We expect that the majority of these fees and expenses will be recorded in the
Company&#146;s financial statements for the period ended September&nbsp;30, 2015 and will be reflected in the Company&#146;s upcoming Form 10-Q to be filed in November. </P>
