NOTE 3              EVENTS DURING THE REPORTED PERIOD
 
During August and September of 2014, the Company received approximately $5.6 million in gross proceeds from the issuance of 5,577.6 Series B Units (See Note 1B). After giving effect to the payment of commissions to the placement agent for the offering and the payment of certain offering expenses, the Company received net proceeds from the offering of approximately $4.8 million.

Pursuant to a placement agent agreement (the “Placement Agent Agreement”) with the placement agent for the Offering (the “Placement Agent”), at the closing of the sale of the Units the Company paid the Placement Agent, as a commission, an amount equal to 7% of the aggregate sales price of the Units, plus 3% of the aggregate sales price as a management fee plus a non-accountable expense allowance equal to 3% of the aggregate sales price of the Units. In addition, pursuant to the Placement Agent Agreement, the Company is required to issue to the Placement Agent:(a) 5 year warrants to purchase up to 192,336 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $5.80 per share and (b) 5 year warrants to purchase up to 96,168 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $10.00 per share. The terms of the Placement Agent warrants will be substantially similar to the terms of the Series B Warrants (described below) except that the Placement Agent warrants may also be exercisable on a cashless basis at all times.

Holders of Series B Preferred Stock are entitled to receive cumulative dividends at a rate of 5.5% per annum, based on the stated value per share of Series B Preferred Stock. Dividends on the Series B Preferred Stock are payable quarterly on March 31, June 30, September 30 and December 31 of each year, beginning on September 30, 2014, and on each conversion date (with respect to the shares of Series B Preferred Stock being converted). For so long as required under the terms of the Certificate of Designations for the Company's outstanding Series A Preferred Stock, dividends will be payable only in shares of Common Stock. Thereafter, dividends on the Series B Preferred Stock will be payable, at the option of the Company, in cash and/or, if certain conditions are satisfied, shares of Common Stock or a combination of both. Shares of Common Stock issued as payment of dividends will be valued at the lower of (a) the then current conversion price of the Series B Preferred Stock or (b) the average of the volume weighted average price for the Common Stock on the principal trading market therefor for the 10 trading days immediately prior to the applicable dividend payment date. The Company will incur a late fee of 9% per annum, payable in cash, on dividends that are not paid within three trading days of the applicable dividend payment date.

Subject to certain ownership limitations described below, the Series B Preferred Stock is convertible at the option of the holder at any time and from time to time into shares of Common Stock at a conversion price of $5.80 per share (calculated by dividing the stated value per share of Series B Preferred Stock, which is initially $1,000, by the conversion price per share). The conversion price of the Series B Preferred Stock is subject to adjustment for certain issuances of Common Stock or other securities of the Company at an effective price per share that is lower than the conversion price then in effect, as well as for stock splits, stock dividends, combinations of shares, similar recapitalization transactions and certain pro-rata distributions to common stockholders. In addition, the holders of Series B Preferred Stock will be entitled to receive any securities or rights to acquire securities or property granted or issued by the Company pro rata to the holders of Common Stock to the same extent as if such holders of Series B Preferred Stock had converted all of their shares of Series B Preferred Stock prior to such distribution. In the event of a fundamental transaction, such as a merger, consolidation, sale of substantially all assets and similar reorganizations or recapitalizations of the Company, the holders of Series B Preferred Stock will be entitled to receive, upon conversion of their shares of Series B Preferred Stock, any securities or other consideration received by the holders of the Common Stock pursuant to the fundamental transaction.

Subject to certain conditions contained in the Certificate of Designations, Preferences and Rights relating to the Series B Preferred Stock, the Company will have the option to force the conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock (in whole or in part) if (a) the volume weighted average price for the Common Stock on its principal trading market exceeds $10.00 for each of any 20 trading days during any 30 consecutive Trading Day period and the average daily dollar trading value for the Common Stock during such 30 day period exceeds $50,000 or (b) the Company receives approval to list the Common Stock on a national securities exchange.
  
Subject to any limitations under the terms of the Certificate of Designations for the Company's outstanding Series A Preferred Stock, the Company may become obligated to redeem the Series B Preferred Stock in cash upon the occurrence of certain triggering events, including, among others, a material breach by the Company of certain contractual obligations to the holders of the Series B Preferred Stock, the occurrence of a change in control of the Company, the occurrence of certain insolvency events relating to the Company, or the failure of the Common Stock to continue to be listed or quoted for trading on one or more specified United States securities exchanges or a regulated quotation service. In addition, upon the occurrence of certain triggering events, each holder of Series B Preferred Stock will have the option to require the Company to redeem such holder's shares of Series B Preferred Stock for a redemption price payable in shares of Common Stock or receive an increased dividend rate of 9% on all of such holder's outstanding Series B Preferred Stock.
 
Subject to the beneficial ownership limitation described below, holders of Series B Preferred Stock will vote together with the holders of Common Stock and Series A Preferred Stock on an as-converted basis. Holders will not be permitted to convert their Series B Preferred Stock if such conversion would cause such holder to beneficially own more than 4.99% of the outstanding Common Stock (subject to increase to 9.99%, at the option of the holder, upon no less than 61 days prior written notice to the Company) (the “Beneficial Ownership Limitation”). In addition, no holder may vote any shares of Series B Preferred Stock (on an as converted to Common Stock basis) in excess of the Beneficial Ownership Limitation.
 
Subject to certain limitations, so long as any Purchaser holds any shares of Series B Preferred Stock, if (a) the Company sells any shares of Common Stock or other securities convertible into, or rights to acquire, Common Stock and (b) a Purchaser then holding Series B Preferred Stock, Series B Warrants, Conversion Shares or Warrant Shares (defined below) reasonably believes that any of the terms and conditions appurtenant to such issuance or sale are more favorable to the purchaser in such subsequent sale of securities than are the terms and conditions granted to such Purchaser, then the Purchaser will be permitted to require the Company to amend the terms of this transaction (only with respect to such Purchaser) so as to match the terms of the subsequent issuance (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any terms and provisions that are or may be less favorable to such Purchaser).
 
Pursuant to Section 4.15 of the Securities Purchase Agreement, dated March 13, 2013, relating to the issuance by the Company of Units (the “Series A Units”) consisting of shares of Series A Preferred Stock and Series A Warrants, the Company was required to and did notify the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock of the closing of the sale of the Series B Units, and following receipt thereof such holders of Series A Preferred Stock were entitled to elect to amend the terms of their purchase of Series A Units to match the terms of the Series B Units. To the extent any holder entitled to do so makes such election, the Company will be obligated to amend the terms of such holder's Series A Units to match the terms of the Series B Units.

The Series B Warrants have a five-year term commencing on the closing dates, as applicable. Until the end of the term, the Series B Warrants will be exercisable at any time and from time to time at an exercise price of $5.80 per share (with respect to the Series B-1 Warrants) or $10.00 per share (with respect to the Series B-2 Warrants). The Series B Warrants contain adjustment provisions substantially similar to those of the Series B Preferred Stock as described above, except that the Series B Warrants shall not include dilution protection for issuances of securities at an effective price per share lower than the conversion price of such Series B Warrants. No holder may exercise its Series B Warrants in excess of the Beneficial Ownership Limitation.
