Item 4. Purpose of Transaction.

 

The following paragraph in Item 4 is hereby amended and restated as follows:

 

Pursuant to the terms of an Investor Rights Agreement dated as of June 28, 2013 between the Company and the Lender (the “Investor Rights Agreement”), the Lender is entitled to designate one person (the “Board Representative”) for election to the Board, for so long as the Lender and/or any of its affiliates own (beneficially or of record) (i)(A) Stockholder Securities (as defined below) that represent (for these purposes, all Stockholder Securities convertible into, or exchangeable or exercisable for, other securities of the Company shall be deemed to have been so converted, exchanged or exercised in full) in the aggregate at least 6% of the outstanding Common Stock and (B) any loans, notes or other indebtedness under the Subordinated Loan Agreement or other Transaction Documents (as defined below) in an aggregate principal amount of at least $2,000,000 or (ii) shares of Common Stock (for these purposes, excluding securities of the Company that are convertible, exchangeable or exercisable for shares of Common Stock) that represent in the aggregate at least 5% of the outstanding Common Stock. As of September 29, 2014 (the “Filing Date”), the Lender has not exercised the right to designate a Board Representative.

 

Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer.

 

Item 5 is hereby amended and supplemented as follows:

 

As of the Filing Date, the Lender, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Fund, holds (i) a Warrant to purchase up to 311,015 shares of Common Stock of the Company (subject to adjustment) and (ii) 24,170 shares of Common Stock as a result of the exercise by the Lender of a portion of the Warrant on behalf of the Fund. The General Partner serves as the sole general partner of the Fund. Adam Kauffman, Steven Graham and Rajinder Singh directly or indirectly manage or advise the General Partner. Mr. Singh also manages Arenal Capital GP LLC, a Delaware limited liability company that serves as the sole general partner of the General Partner. The Fund and the General Partner (together, the Reporting Persons) share the power to vote and the power to direct the disposition of all securities of the Company owned by the Lender, including the Warrant. Thus, for the purposes of Rule 13d-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”), the Reporting Persons are deemed to beneficially own 5.7% of the Common Stock of the Company issued and outstanding as of the Filing Date. This calculation is based on 5,926,696 shares of Common Stock outstanding as of the close of business on September 29, 2014, which includes (i) 5,360,681 shares of Common Stock outstanding as of September 10, 2014 as reported in the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter that ended July 31, 2014; (ii) the Warrant to purchase 311,015 shares of Common Stock; and (iii) 255,000 shares of Common Stock outstanding as a result of the exercise by the Lender of a portion of the Warrant on behalf of the Fund. Thus, for the purposes of Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act, the Reporting Persons are deemed to beneficially own 5.7% of the Common Stock issued and outstanding as of the Filing Date.

 

The following table details the transactions by the Reporting Persons, on behalf of the Fund, in Common Stock during the period commencing sixty (60) days prior to the Filing Date. Each sale by the Reporting Persons was preceded by the exercise of the Warrant by the Lender for the number of shares of Common Stock being sold:
