Item 5.

Ownership of Five Percent or Less of a Class:

If this statement is being filed to report the fact that as of the date hereof the reporting person has ceased to be the beneficial owner of more than five percent of the class of securities, check the following [ ].

Item 6.

Ownership of more than five percent on Behalf of Another Person.

YA Global Investments, L.P. (“YA Global”) does not own any shares of Common Stock. As the Investment Manager of YA Global, Yorkville Advisors, LLC (“Yorkville”) may be deemed to beneficially own the same amount of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by YA Global. As the General Partner to YA Global, Yorkville Advisors GP, LLC (“Yorkville GP”) may be deemed to beneficially own the same amount of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by YA Global. As the president of Yorkville and Yorkville GP and as the portfolio manager to YA Global, Mark Angelo (“Angelo”) may be deemed to beneficially own the same amount of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by YA Global and YA Global GP.

YA Global is the owner of derivative securities which have a cap that prevents each derivative security from being converted and/or exercised if such conversion and/or exercise would cause the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by YA Global and its affiliates to exceed 9.99% of the outstanding shares of the Common Stock following such conversion and/or exercise of the derivative security. In addition, the cap pertaining to the derivative securities limits YA Global’s entitlement to 9.9% of the Common Stock Deemed Outstanding of the Company for purposes of any corporate vote.

Angelo is the direct owner of 375 shares of the Issuer’s Series C 8% Convertible Preferred Stock (“Preferred Shares”), par value $.01 per share, dated February 17, 2006. Angelo obtained the Preferred Shares as of December 31, 2010, in which Angelo submitted a withdraw request from YA Global Investments (U.S.), LP (“YA Global U.S.”), a hedge fund, for funds previously invested by Angelo. On January 3, 2011, Angelo received a letter from YA Global U.S. informing him that the withdraw request would be satisfied through an in-kind distribution of securities held by YA Global (the “In-Kind Distribution”). Securities received by the Reporting Person pursuant to the In-Kind Distribution were valued by YA Global U.S. as of the close of business on December 31, 2010 at $375,000. Angelo received 375 shares of the Preferred Shares of the Issuer valued by YA Global U.S. at $375,000. As a result of the In-Kind Distribution, Angelo may be deemed to have acquired beneficial ownership of 375 shares of Preferred Shares.

The Certificate of Designation of the Preferred Shares provides that each share of the Preferred Shares is convertible into Common Stock of the Issuer equal to the quotient of the liquidation amount divided by the conversion price. The liquidation amount is equal to $1,000 per share of a Preferred Share. The conversion price is equal to, at the option of the holder of the Preferred Share, the lesser of (i) $.50 or (ii) 97% of the lowest closing bid price of the Common Stock for the 125 trading days immediately preceding the date of conversion, as quoted by Bloomberg LP.

The Certificate of Designation further provides that no holder of the Preferred Shares shall be entitled to convert the Preferred Shares to the extent that such conversion would cause the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by such holder to exceed 9.99% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock following such conversion (which provision may be waived by such holder by written notice from such holder to the Issuer, which notice shall be affective 61 days after the date of such notice).

Page 5

Assuming a conversion price of $0.0582, if Angelo converted as of the date hereof, the Reporting Person would own 6,443,299 shares of Common Stock of the Issuer which would represent approximately 15.3% of the total shares of Common Stock outstanding at such time, based on 35,660,877 shares of Common Stock outstanding as informed by the Issuer on January 17, 2011. However, as noted above, the Certificate of Designation prohibits the Reporting Person from converting the Preferred Shares to the extent such conversion would result in the Reporting Person, beneficially owning (as determined in accordance with section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended and the rules promulgated thereunder) in excess of 9.9% of the then and outstanding shares of Common Stock.

YA Global may be deemed to beneficially own the 375 Preferred Shares beneficially owned by Angelo, as he is the president of Yorkville and the investment manager to YA Global and the portfolio manager to YA Global. Yorkville Advisors may be deemed to beneficially own the 375 Preferred Shares owned by Angelo, as he is the president of Yorkville.
