On February 12, 2009, 10X Fund entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement between 10X Fund and Issuer (the “Purchase Agreement”) pursuant to which 10X Fund has the right, for aggregate consideration of $6,000,000, to acquire up to 3,000,000 shares of Series B-1 or B-2 Convertible Preferred Stock of the Issuer (which are convertible into an aggregate of 12,000,000 shares of Common Stock), Class A-1 Warrants exercisable to purchase up to 6,000,000 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $0.50 per share, Class A-2 Warrants exercisable to purchase up to 6,000,000 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $0.50 per share, and Class B Warrants exercisable to purchase up to 24,000,000



shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $0.50 per share.  The securities purchasable under the Purchase Agreement may be purchased in one or more closings until June 11, 2009; provided that such date shall be automatically extended until August 10, 2009 in the event 10X Fund purchases at least $2,500,000 under the Purchase Agreement by May 13, 2009.  10X Fund completed the purchase of $2,700,000 under the Purchase Agreement by May 13, 2009, and therefore the deadline to purchase securities under the Purchase Agreement is August 10, 2009.


On February 12, 2009, 10X Fund purchased, and Issuer sold, (a) 900,000 shares of Series B-1 Preferred Stock (which are convertible into 3,600,000 shares of Common Stock), (b) a Class A-1 warrant exercisable to purchase 1,800,000 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $0.50 per share, (c) a Class A-2 warrant exercisable to purchase 1,800,000 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $0.50 per share, and (d) a Class B warrant exercisable to purchase 7,200,000 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $0.50 per share (collectively, the “Initial Closing Securities”).  The purchase price paid by 10X Fund to Issuer for the Initial Closing Securities was $1,800,000.  10X Capital, in its capacity as the general partner of 10X Fund, may be deemed to have indirect beneficial ownership of all or a portion of the securities owned by 10X Fund.


On May 13, 2009, 10X Fund purchased, and Issuer sold, (a) 450,000 shares of Series B-2 Preferred Stock (which are convertible into 1,800,000 shares of Common Stock), (b) a Class A-1 warrant exercisable to purchase 900,000 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $0.50 per share, (c) a Class A-2 warrant exercisable to purchase 900,000 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $0.50 per share, and (d) a Class B warrant exercisable to purchase 3,600,000 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $0.50 per share (collectively, the “First Subsequent Closing Securities”).  The purchase price paid by 10X Fund to Issuer for the First Subsequent Closing Securities was $900,000.  10X Capital, in its capacity as the general partner of 10X Fund, may be deemed to have indirect beneficial ownership of all or a portion of the securities owned by 10X Fund.


ITEM 4. PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION

In addition to acquiring the Initial Closing Securities and the First Subsequent Closing Securities pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, 10X Fund may also purchase, at one or more additional closings, (a) 1,650,000 shares of Series B-2 Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.01 per share, of Issuer (which are convertible into 6,600,000 shares of Common Stock), (b) Class A-1 warrants exercisable to purchase 3,300,000 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $0.50 per share, (c) Class A-2 warrants exercisable to purchase 3,300,000 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $0.50 per share, and (d) Class B warrants exercisable to purchase 13,200,000 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $0.50 per share (collectively, the “Subsequent Closing Securities”).  Under the Purchase Agreement, the additional closings to consummate the purchase of the Subsequent Closing Securities must occur on or before August 10, 2009.  The Reporting Persons may be considered to have beneficial ownership of all or a portion of the Subsequent Closing Securities based upon 10X Fund’s right to acquire the Subsequent Closing Securities.


Under the terms of the Series B-1 Preferred Stock and Series B-2 Preferred Stock, as set forth in the Certificate of Designation of Preferences, Rights and Limitations of such securities, 10X Fund is permitted to (a) vote as a separate class to elect two (2) members of the Issuer’s Board of Directors and (b) nominate two (2) additional members of the Issuer’s Board of Directors, which additional nominees shall be subject to election by all shares of voting stock entitled to vote on matters put before the holders of Common Stock.  The number of members of Issuer’s Board of Directors elected by 10X Fund voting as a separate class shall be increased to three (3) if and when 10X Fund consummates the purchase of all Subsequent Closing Securities.

Except as set forth in this Item 4 and elsewhere in this Statement, the Reporting Persons do not have any plans or proposals which related to or would result in any of the actions specified in Item 4 of Schedule 13D, but the Reporting Persons reserve the right to change their intentions with respect to any of the foregoing at any time without notice.
