Responses to each item of this Amendment No. 12 to Statement on Schedule 13D are incorporated by reference into the response to each other item, as applicable.

Item 3.Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration

Item 3 is hereby amended and supplemented to include the following paragraphs, which are added following the last paragraph thereof:

The Company conducted a rights offering to its existing stockholders, whereby each stockholder of record, as of the close of business on June 9, 2011, received one subscription right for each share of common stock, par value $0.001, of the Company Common Stock which entitled such stockholder to purchase 0.51494 shares of Common Stock at a subscription price of $0.12 per share (the “Rights Offering”). The subscription rights under the Rights Offering expired on June 30, 2011.  In connection with the Rights Offering, the Company entered an Investment Agreement, dated May 10, 2011 (the “Investment Agreement”), with the Reporting Persons. Pursuant to the Investment Agreement, the Reporting Persons agreed to provide a backstop commitment on the Rights Offering.  The Reporting Persons were subordinated lenders under unsecured promissory notes in the aggregate amount of $4.0 million with the Company entered into on February 17, 2011 and April 27, 2011 (the “Notes”).  The maturity date of the Notes was the earlier of: (1) the consummation of a rights offering which permitted all Reporting Persons to exchange their Notes (and the other notes paid in-kind for the payment of interest under the Notes) for shares of Common Stock at $0.12 per share and (2) July 15, 2011.

Under the Rights Offering, the Reporting Persons subscribed for 23,228,970 shares of Common Stock at a price of $0.12 per share, resulting in gross proceeds to the Company from the Reporting Persons of approximately $2.8 million, which was paid for through the exchange of principal and accrued interest on the Notes of approximately $2.8 million.  Pursuant to backstop commitment, the Reporting Persons purchased 27,714,385 shares of Common Stock at price of $0.12 per share, resulting in gross proceeds to the Company from the Reporting Persons of approximately $3.3 million, of which $2.0 million was paid in cash and $1.3 million was paid for through the exchange of the balance of principal and accrued interest due on the Notes. As a result of these transactions, the Company satisfied its obligations with respect to the Notes and the Notes were cancelled.

Further, as previously disclosed, pursuant to certain securities subscription agreements the Company entered into with Orchard on (i) March 23, 2010 for 9% convertible debentures and (ii) November 9, 2010 and December 8, 2010 for units comprised of common stock and warrants to purchase shares of common stock (“Prior Subscription Agreements”) the investors under the Prior Subscription Agreements and the Company reached an agreement on or about February 17, 2011(“Anti-dilution Agreement) whereby certain anti-dilution rights were extended through to the closing of rights offering and the consummation of the transactions under the Investment Agreement or six months from February 17, 2011 whichever occurs earlier. The closing of this rights offering on June 30, 2011 and the consummation of the transactions under the Investment Agreement resulted in the Company issuing 6,333,333 additional shares of Common Stock to Orchard to satisfy the February 17, 2011 agreement.

Item 5.  Interest in Securities of the Issuer

Item 5 is hereby amended and restated to read as follows:

(a) and (b)

The following is a description of the shares beneficially owned by each of the Reporting Persons.
