On September 30, 2015, the Company filed an amendment to its previously filed prospectus supplement extending the offering period for its ongoing offering of stock and warrants from September 30, 2015 to October 30, 2015. As previously reported, the offering is being made to accredited investors pursuant to a prospectus supplement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on September 17, 2015, and an accompanying prospectus dated November 1, 2013, pursuant to the Company’s shelf registration statement on Form S-3 that was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on October 11, 2013 and became effective on November 1, 2013 (File No. 333-191704).
A copy of the amended form of securities purchase agreement is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1. The foregoing description of the securities purchase agreement is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to Exhibit 10.1.

Effective on October 1, 2015, the Company appointed Joseph L. Sanders as a member of the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”), to fill one of the Board’s available vacancies. Mr. Sanders serves as Vice-President of Investments and Banking at Newport Coast Securities in Huntington Beach, California.
