Amendment Description	The registrant has prepared this Amendment No. 1 ("Amendment") on Form 10-Q/A to amend its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2014 (the "Original Form 10-Q") which was originally filed on November 14, 2014. The Company is filing Amendment No. 1 to include corrections to certain components of Statement of Comprehensive Loss and the related footnote, primarily changes to foreign currency translation adjustment, increased disclosure regarding share-based compensation and Subsequent Events in the notes to financial statements, revisions for certain reclassifications and rounding errors elsewhere in the financial statements, corrective disclosure to the Operating Losses paragraph in Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and to provide updated XBRL files from our earlier presentation. Amendment No. 1 only amends and restates the information in Items 1 and 2 of Part 1 and Items 1A and 6 of Part II, as permitted by the rules and regulations of the SEC. Except as described above, the Registrant has not modified or updated disclosures presented in the Original Form 10-Q in this amendment. Accordingly, this amendment does not reflect events occurring after the filing of the Registrant's Original Form 10-Q or modify or update those disclosures, including the exhibits to the Original Form10-Q, affected by subsequent events. Accordingly, this amendment should be read in conjunction with the Original Form 10-Q. In addition, as required by Rule 12b-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), currently dated certifications by our principal executive officer and principal financial officer are filed as exhibits to this amendment under Item 6 of Part II hereof.
