This statement is being filed on behalf of PNBK Holdings LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Holdings”), PNBK Sponsor LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Sponsor”), and Michael A. Carrazza, an individual and citizen of the United States (“Carrazza” and together with Holdings and Sponsor, the “Reporting Persons”).

None of the Reporting Persons has, during the last five years, been convicted in a criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations or similar misdemeanors), or been a party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative body of competent jurisdiction resulting in a judgment, decree or final order enjoining future violations of, or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to, Federal or state securities laws or finding any violation with respect to such laws.

Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration

On December 16, 2009, Issuer and Holdings entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement, as amended (the “SPA”), pursuant to which Issuer agreed to issue and sell to Holdings, and Holdings agreed to purchase, shares of Common Stock (the “Subject Shares”) at a purchase price of $1.50 per share. The purchase of the Subject Shares by Holdings was funded out of working capital. There were no borrowed funds used to purchase the Subject Shares.

Item 4. Purpose of Transaction

Holdings purchased the Subject Shares for the purpose of acquiring a controlling interest in Issuer. Pursuant to the terms of the SPA, at the request of Holdings, certain of the members of the Board of Directors of Issuer (the “Board”) and certain members of Issuer’s management team resigned as of the closing of the transactions contemplated by the SPA and, subsequently, Holdings appointed six (6) new directors to the Board.

Except as otherwise set forth herein, the Reporting Persons have not formulated any plans or proposals that relate to or would result in:

(a)

The acquisition by any person of additional securities of the Issuer, or the disposition of securities of the Issuer;

(j)

Any action similar to any of those listed above.

Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer

(a)

As a result of certain relationships, each of the Reporting Persons may be deemed to directly and/or indirectly beneficially own 33,600,000 shares of Common Stock, representing in the aggregate approximately 87.6% of the issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock, based upon the disclosure in Issuer’s most recent Form 10-Q (for the quarterly period ended June 30, 2010, filed on August 5, 2010) that there were 4,762,727 shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding as of July 31, 2010.

Due to their relationship with each another, the Reporting Persons may be deemed to constitute a “group” under Section 13(d)(3) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Act”), with respect to their beneficial ownership of the shares of Common Stock. The Reporting Persons, however, expressly disclaim such status and declare that the filing of this Schedule 13D is not and should not be deemed an admission that any Reporting Person, for purposes of Section 13(d)(3) of the Act or otherwise, is the beneficial owner of the shares of Common Stock held by any other Reporting Person.
