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 October 18, 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 2,084,843 shares of Common Stock, which consists of 2,084,843 shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise or exchange of a warrant held by Crede CG III (the “ Warrant ”), and all such shares of Common Stock represent beneficial ownership of approximately 9.9% of the Common Stock, based on (1) 18,974,185 shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding on December 20, 2013, as reported in the Form 424(b)(3) prospectus filed by the Issuer on December 30, 2013, plus (2) 2,084,843 shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise or exchange of the Warrant.

 

The foregoing excludes (I) 415,157 shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise or exchange of the Warrant because the Warrant contains a blocker provision under which the holder thereof does not have the right to exercise the Warrant to the extent (but only to the extent) that such exercise would result in beneficial ownership by the holder thereof or any of its affiliates of more than 9.9% of the Common Stock and (II) 5,000,000 shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise or exchange of a second warrant held by Crede CG III (the “ Second Warrant ”) because the Second Warrant contains a blocker provision under which the holder thereof does not have the right to exercise the Second Warrant to the extent (but only to the extent) that such exercise would result in beneficial ownership by the holder thereof or any of its affiliates of more than 9.9% of the Common Stock. Without such blocker provisions, each of the Reporting Persons may be deemed to have beneficial ownership of 7,500,000 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: 2,084,843 .

 

(iii) Sole power to dispose or to direct the disposition of 0 .

 

(iv) Shared power to dispose or to direct the disposition of 2,084,843 .
