ITEM 4. PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION.

Item 4 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented by adding the following after the last paragraph:

On December 8, 2017, Hale Fund I entered into a share purchase agreement with TALANTA Fund, L.P., (the Selling Stockholder), TALANTA Investment Group, LLC, general partner of the Selling Stockholder (the TALANTA GP), Justyn R. Putnam, investment manager and managing member of the TALANTA GP (Putnam and, collectively with the Selling Stockholder and the TALANTA GP, the Putnam Parties) and, solely with respect to Article 4 thereof, the Company (the Share Purchase Agreement), pursuant to which Hale Fund I purchased from the Selling Stockholder on December 11, 2017 (the Closing) 740,896 shares of Common Stock at a purchase price of $0.98 per share, for an aggregate purchase price of $726,078.08. Pursuant to the Share Purchase Agreement, (i) Putnam resigned from the Companys Board of Directors (the Board), effective as of Closing, and (ii) each of the Putnam Parties acknowledged that, as of Closing, by virtue of the transactions contemplated by the Share Purchase Agreement, each such party ceased to have any rights under the 2016 Agreement (as amended), including but not limited to the right to recommend a substitute director for consideration and appointment by the Board pursuant to Section 1(f) of the 2016 Agreement.

The Share Purchase Agreement contains various other terms and provisions, including a representation by the Company that a majority of the disinterested members of the Board approved the transactions contemplated by the Share Purchase Agreement in accordance with Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law.

The foregoing description of the Share Purchase Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of such agreement and all exhibits thereto, which is filed as Exhibit 99.1 to this Amendment No. 1 and incorporated herein by reference.

 

ITEM 5. INTEREST IN SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER.

(a)-(b)    The Reporting Persons beneficially own in the aggregate 2,245,151 shares of Common Stock, which represents approximately 15.0% of the Companys outstanding shares of Common Stock. Each percentage ownership of shares of Common Stock set forth in this Statement is based on 15,083,331 shares of Common Stock reported by the Company as outstanding as of November 4, 2017 in its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed with the SEC on November 13, 2017, less 163,214 shares of Common Stock subsequently withheld by the Company to satisfy tax withholding obligations, as reported pursuant to a Form 4 filed with the SEC on December 11, 2017 by R. Glenn Prillaman.

Each of the Hale Funds directly holds the number and percentage of shares of Common Stock disclosed as beneficially owned by it in the applicable table set forth on the cover page to this Statement.
