Item 4.
Ownership
 
Provide the following information regarding the aggregate number and percentage of the class of securities of the issuer identified in Item 1.
 

As of the date hereof, the SPV beneficially owned 80,632,105 shares of Common Stock.  Of this amount, 80,603,105 consist of shares underlying convertible notes and 29,000 consist of shares of Common Stock.  The SPV acquired beneficial ownership of 80,000,000 shares underlying $800,000 face value of these convertible notes on July 19, 2010, as the notes may first be converted on September 17, 2010.

 
 

 
The SPV also holds convertible notes that are convertible into 70,628 shares of Common Stock.  These notes cannot be converted until January 4, 2011.  Accordingly, the Reporting Persons do not currently have beneficial ownership of the shares underlying these convertible notes.  The SPV also holds warrants to purchase 1,916,250 shares, which are subject  to a contractual limitation prohibiting their exercise to the extent that the SPV and its affiliates would beneficially own in excess of 4.999% of the Common Stock of the Issuer.  Accordingly, the warrants are not exercisable, and the Reporting Persons do not currently have beneficial ownership of the Common Stock underlying the warrants.

The percentages herein are calculated based upon 825,593,346 shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding as of July 19, 2010, as communicated by the Issuer to the Investment Manager, plus shares issuable upon the conversion or exercise of the 80,603,105 convertible notes referenced above.

This statement relates to Common Stock held by the SPV over which the Investment Manager has discretionary trading authority.  AMIP LLC and its affiliates have entered into an agreement in principle to combine their business with the Investment Manager and its affiliates (the “Business Combination”). This Business Combination has not yet closed.  However AMIP LLC, BAM Management, and their affiliates began sharing office space on May 17, 2010.  While there is no agreement or understanding whereby AMIP LLC, Adam Stern, or Mark Friedman, or their affiliates have authority to manage the investment positions held by the SPV, it is possible that AMIP LLC and its affiliates may from time to time coordinate investment decisionmaking with the Investment Manager and its affiliates.  Accordingly, the reporting persons have reflected this potentia l for shared investment discretion before the closing of the Business Combination in this filing.

The managing members of the Investment Manager are Ross Berman and Hal Mintz, and the managing members of AMIP LLC are Adam Stern and Mark Friedman.  The SPV, AMIP LLC, the Investment Manager, Mr. Mintz, Mr. Berman, Mr. Stern and Mr. Friedman are hereinafter sometimes collectively referred to as the "Reporting Persons."

Each of the Reporting Persons disclaims beneficial ownership of all shares of Common Stock reported hereby, except to the extent of such Reporting Person’s pecuniary interest therein.
 
 
 

 
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
 
The SPV is a pooled investment vehicle.  As the manager of the SPV, the Investment Manager has the power to vote and dispose of the Common Stock owned by the SPV and, accordingly, may be deemed the "beneficial owner" of such Common Stock.

Messrs. Mintz and Berman share investment management duties.
