The principal business of NCG is acting as general partner of NCM.  The principal business of NCMS is providing management and advisory services and investing in securities. The principal occupation of John P. Murray is serving as Chief Financial Officer of NCM.  The principal occupation of James Dvorak is serving as a Managing Director and investment professional of NCM.

The principal occupation of Dieter Esch is principal in the real estate brokerage business.  The principal occupation of Peter Marty is serving as the sole officer and director of Lorex.  The principal business of Lorex is investing in securities.  The principal place of business for Lorex is c/o Treuhand – u. Revisionsgesellschaft Mattig-Suter and Postner AG, Industriestrasse 22, Zug, CH-6302, Switzerland.  The principal place of business for Peter Marty is c/o Mattig-Suter und Partner, Bahnhofstrasse 28, Schwyz, CH-6431, Switzerland.  The principal place of business of Dieter Esch is Carretera Transpeninsular Km. 27.5, San Jose del Cabo, B.C.S.

(f)            Messrs. Schwarz, Murray, Stone, Coleman and Dvorak are citizens of the United States of America. Mr. Esch is a citizen of Germany.  Mr. Marty is a citizen of Switzerland.
 
Item 3.          Source and Amount of Funds and Other Consideration

Item 3 is hereby amended to add the following last paragraph:

All shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by Lorex were issued to Lorex by the Issuer in connection with the closing of the Issuer’s acquisition of Wilhelmina International, Ltd. on February 17, 2009.  As of June 19, 2013, Mr. Esch had invested $70,265 (inclusive of brokerage commissions) in 500,000 shares of Common Stock of the Issuer.  The source of these funds was the personal funds of Mr. Esch.

Item 5.          Interest in Securities of the Issuer.
 
Item 5(a)-(b) is hereby amended and restated to read as follows:
 
(a)           The aggregate percentage of shares of Common Stock reported to be owned by the Reporting Persons is based upon 117,406,051 shares outstanding as reported in the Company’s Form 10-Q as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 15, 2014.

Item 6.          Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships With Respect to Securities of the Issuer.

Item 6 is hereby amended to add the following last paragraphs:

As previously disclosed in this Statement (including Amendment No. 3 filed on August 27, 2008 and Amendment No. 6 filed October 21, 2010), NP, Lorex and Esch are parties to a Mutual Support Agreement dated August 25, 2008, as amended on October 18, 2010 (the “Mutual Support Agreement”).  The rights and obligations thereunder of Brad Krassner and Krassner Family Investments L.P., who were also original signatories, terminated as a result of their disposition of Common Stock in September 2012. Pursuant to the Mutual Support Agreement, the parties agreed to, among other things, cause their representatives serving on the Issuer’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) to vote to nominate and recommend the election of individuals designated by such parties (three designees of NP and one designee of Esch at this time) and to vote their shares of Common Stock to elect such designees at any meeting of the Issuer’s shareholders or pursuant to any action by written consent in lieu of a meeting pursuant to which directors are to be elected to the Board.  In addition, each of NP, on the one hand, and Lorex and Esch, on the other hand, are obligated to cause their representatives serving on the Board to vote to nominate and recommend the election of, and to vote their respect shares in favor of, two additional independent director nominees selected from a list of individuals pre-approved by each of Esch and NP, respectively, subject to certain terms and conditions.  The parties also agreed to maintain the size of the Board at seven (7) directors.  As a result of the existence of the Mutual Support Agreement and their combined beneficial ownership of Common Stock (approximately 66.3% combined), NP, Schwarz (by virtue of his control of NP), Lorex and Esch (by virtue of his control of Lorex) together control the designation of six (6) of the seven (7) seats on the Board as a practical matter. The parties expect to continue to maintain such control for the foreseeable future.
