This Amendment No. 2 to Schedule 13D amends and supplements the Schedule 13D originally filed by the Reporting Persons identified on the cover pages hereto with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “
SEC
”) on March 16, 2011 (the “
Original Schedule 13D
”), as amended by the first amendment as filed with the SEC on October 12, 2011 (as amended, the “

|
|
Item 4.

|
|
|
|
|
Item 4 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented by adding the following at the end thereof:
On January 13, 2012, the transactions under the Merger Agreement were consummated. Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, at the effective time of the Merger (the “
Effective Time
”), among other things, all of the Shares, including those beneficially owned by the Reporting Persons, were cancelled. Pursuant to the Equity Rollover Letter, immediately prior to the Effective Time, certain of the Reporting Persons transferred an aggregate of 4,545,451 Shares to Parent in exchange for Parent common stock.

Item 5 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows:
(a) Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, at the Effective Time, among other things, all of the outstanding Shares, including those beneficially owned by the Reporting Persons, were cancelled. As of January 13, 2012 (the “

”), none of the Reporting Persons owns any shares of any class of equity security of the Issuer registered pursuant to Section 12 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “
Exchange Act
”).
(b) To the knowledge of the Reporting Persons, none of the persons disclosed in Item 2 beneficially owns any shares of any class of equity security of the Issuer registered pursuant to Section 12 of the Exchange Act.

(d) Not applicable.
(e) As a result of the transactions described in Item 4, as of January 13, 2012, the Reporting Persons ceased to be the beneficial owners of more than five percent of any class of equity security of the Issuer registered pursuant to Section 12 of the Exchange Act.
