On November 1, 2011, the Issuer entered in a letter agreement with certain of its holders (the “Holders”) of debentures in the aggregate amount of $1,194,254 (the “Debentures”) whereby the Issuer and the Holders agreed to settle and pay the Debentures (the “Settlement”). As part of the Settlement, the Holders agreed to sell and assign an aggregate amount of $594,253.64 of the Debentures to Mr. Blech. In exchange for Mr. Blech’s surrender of such assigned Debentures to the Issuer, the Issuer issued to Mr. Blech a demand convertible promissory note in the amount of $594,253.64, convertible into shares of Common Stock at the price of $0.30 per share, subject to adjustment as set forth therein (the “Lender Promissory Note”).
Also on November 1, 2011, Mr. Blech purchased indebtedness of the Issuer in the aggregate amount of $1,067,122 from certain shareholders and lenders of the Issuer (the “Founders”) which were the holders and/or makers of promissory notes, loans, advances and other indebtedness of the Issuer and/or one of its affiliates, originally issued to the Founders. Upon the sale and assignment of such indebtedness to Mr. Blech from the Founders, the Issuer issued to Mr. Blech a demand convertible promissory note in the amount of $1,067,122, convertible into shares of Common Stock at the price of $0.30 per share, subject to adjustment as set forth therein (the “Founder Promissory Note,” and together with the Lender Promissory Note, the “Notes”).

Copies of the Form of Founder Promissory Note and Form of Lender Promissory Note are filed as Exhibit 1 and Exhibit 2, respectively, to this Schedule 13D and are incorporated by reference herein.
The funds used for the acquisition of the Notes came from personal funds of the Reporting Person. No borrowed funds were used to purchase the Notes.
Item 4. | Purpose of Transaction |
The Reporting Person has acquired the Notes for investment purposes. The Reporting Person intends to review his holdings in the Issuer on a continuing basis. As discussed below, the Reporting Person is a director of Premier Alliance Group, Inc. with whom the Issuer has signed a Letter of Intent to merge with and into. Depending upon, among other things, current and anticipated future trading prices for the Issuer’s securities, the financial condition, results of operations and prospects of the Issuer and its businesses, general economic, market and industry conditions, and the Reporting Person’s overall strategic objectives and financial condition, the Reporting Person may from time to time consider a number of possible strategies intended to enhance the value of his investment in the Issuer, enhance the value of the Issuer’s assets or enhance the value of the Reporting Person’s assets through the involvement of the Issuer, or other extraordinary matters relating to the Issuer, including, among other things, proposing or effecting a transaction or matter that would constitute or result in any of the transactions, matters or effects enumerated in Item 4(a)-(j) of Schedule 13D.
