SCHEDULE 13D

This Amendment No. 2 (the Amendment) relates to the Statement of Beneficial Ownership on Schedule 13D filed jointly by Morris Garfinkle, (Mr. Garfinkle), the Garfinkle Revocable Trust (the Revocable Trust) and Jonathan Kahn (Mr. Kahn) (collectively, the Reporting Persons) with the SEC on February 17, 2017, as amended by Amendment No. 1 to such statement filed with the SEC on March 16, 2017 (Amendment No. 1) (as further amended by this Amendment, the Schedule 13D).

Except as set forth below, all Items of the Schedule 13D remain unchanged. All capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Schedule 13D.

 

ITEM 2. IDENTITY AND BACKGROUND

Item 2 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended to add the following information for updating:

(b) The business address of Mr. Kahn is 2550 N. Lakeview Ave., Unit S2206, Chicago, Illinois 60614. The business address of Mr. Garfinkle and the Revocable Trust is 13783 E. Gail Rd., Scottsdale, AZ 85259.

(c) Following Mr. Kahns resignation as an officer and director of the Company described below in Item 4, Mr. Kahns principal occupation is making investments.

 

ITEM 3. SOURCE AND AMOUNT OF FUNDS OR OTHER CONSIDERATION

Item 3 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended to add the following information for updating:

Mr. Kahn used $17,500 from his personal funds to fund 50% of the $35,000 Second Promissory Note described in Item 4 below.

Mr. Garfinkle used $17,500 from his personal funds to fund 50% of the $35,000 Second Promissory Note described in Item 4 below.

 

ITEM 4. PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION

Item 4 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended to add the following information for updating:

Prior to the close of business on March 31, 2017, the Company informed GKS Funding that it would be unable to make the interest payment described below. Shortly thereafter, (i) Mr. Kahn resigned as a director of the Company and from all officer positions with the Company and (ii) Mr. Garfinkle resigned as a director of the Company.

The Company failed to make the interest payment due on March 31, 2017, under the Loan Agreement and the Note. GKS Funding, as administrative agent under the Loan Agreement, delivered a default notice to the Company following the close of business on March 31, 2017, with respect to such payment failure, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit A. If such failure is not cured within the 15-day cure period, the Reporting Persons (through GKS Funding, as administrative agent under the Loan Agreement) intend to exercise all rights and remedies available to them under the Loan Agreement, the Note and applicable law, which will include foreclosing on the collateral under the Loan Agreement.


Due to the Companys ongoing liquidity needs, on March 28, 2017, the Company entered into a promissory note with Mr. Kahn and Mr. Garfinkle as the lenders in the original principal amount of $35,000 (the Second Promissory Note). The Second Promissory Note is attached hereto as Exhibit 1. The Second Promissory Note accrues interest at a rate per annum equal to 5%. Accrued and unpaid interest on the outstanding principal is payable monthly in arrears on the last business day of each month in which any amount remains outstanding under the Second Promissory Note. The principal amount, together with all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, is required to be repaid to the lenders out of the proceeds received from the accounts receivable of the Company collected after March 28, 2017, immediately upon such receipt. The loan under the Second Promissory Note is secured by all of the assets of the Company pursuant to a Security Agreement and a Patent Security Agreement. The Security Agreement is attached hereto as Exhibit 2, and the Patent Security Agreement is attached hereto as Exhibit 3.

The proceeds of the Second Promissory Note will be used by the Company to primarily fund payroll.

As a condition to the making of the loan under the Second Promissory Note, the lenders under the Loan Agreement (which included Mr. Kahn and Mr. Garfinkle through GKS Funding), which is the senior secured debt of the Company, were required to enter into a subordination agreement with the Company and Mr. Kahn and Mr. Garfinkle (the Second Subordination Agreement). The Second Subordination Agreement made the Second Promissory Note the senior secured debt of the Company. The Second Subordination Agreement is attached hereto as Exhibit 4.

The foregoing descriptions of the Second Promissory Note, the Security Agreement, the Patent Security Agreement and the Second Subordination Agreement are qualified in their entirety by reference to the Second Promissory Note, the Security Agreement, the Patent Security Agreement and the Second Subordination Agreement, which are attached hereto as Exhibits 1, 2, 3 and 4, respectively, and which are hereby incorporated herein by reference.

Each Reporting Person expects to evaluate on an ongoing basis the Companys financial condition and prospects and its interest in, and intentions with respect to, the Company and its investment in the securities of the Company (including debt securities and other debt instruments held directly and/or indirectly by the Reporting Persons (including through GKS Funding) and rights and/or remedies thereunder), which review may be based on various factors (including, without limitation, the Companys business and financial condition, results of operations and prospects, general economic and industry conditions, the price and availability of shares of the Companys capital stock, the conditions of the securities markets in general and those for the Companys securities in particular), as well as other developments and other investment opportunities. Accordingly, each Reporting Person reserves the right to change its intentions, as it deems appropriate. In particular, each Reporting Person may at any time and from time to time, in the open market, in privately negotiated transactions or otherwise, increase its investment in securities of the Company or dispose of all or a portion of the securities of the


Company that such Reporting Persons now owns or may hereafter acquires. In addition, the Reporting Persons may engage in discussions with other members of management and other members of the board of directors of the Company regarding the Company (including, but not limited to, the Companys business and financial condition, results of operations and prospects). The Reporting Persons may take positions with respect to and seek to influence the Company regarding the matters discussed above (including through the debt securities and other debt instruments held directly and/or indirectly by the Reporting Persons (including through GKS Funding) and rights and/or remedies thereunder). Such suggestions or positions may include one or more plans or proposals that relate to or would result in any of the actions required to be reported herein. The Reporting Persons also reserve the right, in each case subject to applicable law, to (i) enter into privately negotiated derivative transactions with institutional counterparties to hedge the market risk of some or all of their respective positions in the shares of Common Stock or other securities and (ii) consider participating in a business combination transaction that would result in an acquisition of all of the outstanding Common Stock.

Other than as described above in this Item 4, the Reporting Persons do not have any plans or proposals that relate to, or would result in, any actions or events specified in clauses (a) through (j) of Item 4 to Schedule 13D.
