This Amendment No. 1 is being filed jointly by the Reporting Persons and amends the Schedule 13G initially filed by the Reporting Persons with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on February 12, 2013 (the “Schedule 13G”).
Except as set forth below, all Items of the Schedule 13G remain unchanged. All capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Schedule 13G.
Item 4. Ownership.
(a) and (b):
As of the close of business on December 31, 2013, each of the Reporting Persons may be deemed to have beneficial ownership of 32,532,856 shares of Common Stock, which consists of (i) 353,333 shares of Common Stock held for the account of Cranshire Capital Master Fund, (ii) 14,003,640 shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of a warrant (the “Warrant”), (iii) 5,611,238 shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of a second warrant (the “Second Warrant”) and (iv) 12,564,645 shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of a third warrant (the “Third Warrant”), in each case of clauses (ii), (iii) and (iv) above, held by Cranshire Capital Master Fund, and all such shares of Common Stock represent beneficial ownership of approximately 4.99% of the Common Stock, based on (1) 619,781,525 shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding on December 6, 2013, as reported in the Form 10-Q filed by the Issuer on December 9,2013 plus (2) 14,003,640 shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrant, (3) 5,611,238 shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Second Warrant and (4) 12,564,645 shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Third Warrant.
The foregoing excludes (I) 7,764,913 shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Third Warrant because the Third Warrant contains a blocker provision under which the holder thereof does not have the right to exercise the Third Warrant to the extent that such exercise would result in beneficial ownership by the holder thereof or any of its affiliates, of more than 4.99% of the Common Stock and (II) an aggregate of 16,971,929 shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of other warrants held by Cranshire Capital Master Fund (the “Other Warrants”) because each of such Other Warrants contains a blocker provision under which the holder thereof does not have the right to exercise such Other Warrants to the extent that such exercise would result in beneficial ownership by the holder thereof or any of its affiliates, of more than 4.99% of the Common Stock. Without such blocker provisions, each of the Reporting Persons may be deemed to have beneficial ownership of 57,269,698 shares of Common Stock.
(c) Number of shares as to which each Reporting Person has:
(i) Sole power to vote or to direct the vote: 0.
(ii) Shared power to vote or to direct the vote: 32,532,856.
(iii) Sole power to dispose or to direct the disposition of 0.
(iv) Shared power to dispose or to direct the disposition of 32,532,856.
Item 5. Ownership of Five Percent or Less of a Class
