Explanation of Responses:
1. On October 29, 2013, the Issuer and the holders of Issuer's 2012 8% Senior Convertible Debentures ("Holders"), which included the Reporting Person, entered into a Conversion Agreement ("Conversion Agreement") pursuant to which all Holders agreed to convert all outstanding principal and accrued interest under such debentures at a per share price of $2.40. Shares reflected represent shares issued to Reporting Person upon conversion of $1,333,056 of principal and accrued interest.
2. The Reporting Person disclaims beneficial ownership of these securities except to the extent of his pecuniary interest therein, and this report shall not be deemed an admission that the reporting person is the beneficial owner of such securities for purposes of Section 16 or for any other purpose.
3. The reported securities are included within 687,500 Issuer units purchased by the Reporting Person for $2.40 per unit. Each unit consists of one share of common stock, a 2013 Series D Warrant to purchase one share of common stock, and a 2013 Series E Warrant to purchase one share of common stock.
4. Pursuant to Conversion Agreement, Issuer also paid to each Holder additional 12 mos. interest for converting the debentures, which amount was satisfied by the issuance of common stock at a price of $2.40 per share. Shares reflected represented issuance in satisfaction of additional interest of $100,000.
5. Vesting in three equal annual installments commencing 11/5/11.
6. As a result of the Issuer's 10/29/13 private placement of common stock at $2.40/share, the exercise price subject to the 2010 Class B Warrants was automatically adjusted to the exercise price reflected, pursuant to anti-dilution adjustment provisions.
7. As a result of the Issuer's 10/29/13 private placement of common stock at $2.40/share, the exercise price and number of shares subject to the 2012 Series A Warrants were automatically adjusted to the exercise price and shares reflected, pursuant to anti-dilution adjustment provisions.
8. The two reported transactions involved an amendment of an outstanding warrant extending the expiration date from 5/26/14 to 10/31/14, resulting in the deemed cancellation of the "old" warrant and the issuance of a replacement warrant. The "old" warrant was originally granted on 11/26/12.
Remarks:
ON 10/29/13, THE COMPANY COMPLETED A ONE-FOR-EIGHT REVERSE STOCK SPLIT. ALL COMMON STOCK, WARRANT AND DEBENTURE AMOUNTS AND EXERCISE PRICES IN THE FILING RELATING TO SECURITIES ACQUIRED PRIOR TO 10/29/13 HAVE BEEN ADJUSTED TO REFLECT THE ONE-FOR-EIGHT REVERSE STOCK SPLIT.
