Item 4. Purpose of Transaction

 

The securities reported in this Schedule 13D were acquired by Hillair Investments for investment purposes. By virtue of its percentage ownership of the Issuer, Hillair Investments has the ability to control matters that require shareholder approval. Hillair Investments evaluates its investments in the Shares on a continual basis and it reserves the right to act in concert with any other shareholders of the Issuer, or other persons, for a common purpose if it should determine to do so, and/or to recommend courses of action to the Issuer's management, the Issuer's board of directors, the Issuer's shareholders and others.

 

The Reporting Person is considering and evaluating strategic alternatives designed to lead to the maximization of the value of its investment in the Issuer which includes beneficial ownership of the Issuer’s Common Stock.  The Reporting Person believes that there may be opportunities to significantly improve the Issuer's strategic direction, as well as the value of its investment.  In this connection, the Reporting Person may hold discussions with management of the Issuer, other stockholders (including other holders of Preferred Stock) and with third parties that may address a number of issues, including without limitation, its respective views on:

 

the Issuer's business and prospects;

the disposition of certain of its operations or the business as a whole;

concerns over the direction and management of the Issuer generally, and in particular;

the structure of management compensation, including payment of bonuses;

composition of the board of directors;

extraordinary corporate transactions, including mergers, liquidations or reorganizations;

control of discretionary corporate expenditures; and

other opportunities to improve or realize on the value of their investment in the Issuer.

 

At this time, the Reporting Person has not made any decisions regarding its future intentions with regards to its plans and proposals with respect to the Issuer. However, the Reporting Person is discussing and seeking input from other holders of the Stock regarding possible joint strategies which could lead to a change of control of the Issuer.

 

The Reporting Person reserves the right to change its plans and intentions, including the right to increase or decrease its investment in the Issuer.  In particular, the Reporting Person may (i) purchase additional shares of Common Stock, (ii) sell or transfer shares of Common Stock or Senior Secured Convertible Debentures in public or private transactions, (iii) enter into privately negotiated derivative transactions and/or public purchases and sales of puts, calls and other derivative securities to hedge the market risk of some or all of its positions in the Common Stock and/or (iv) take any other action that might relate to or result in any of the actions set forth above.  Any such actions may be effected at any time or from time to time, subject to any applicable limitations imposed on the actions by the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or other applicable law.

  

 

 

  

Except as described herein, the Reporting Person has not formulated any plans or proposals that relate to or would result in any of the events or transactions described above.  Further, the Reporting Person expressly retains the right to independently vote and dispose of shares of Common Stock which it beneficially owns.

  

Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer

 

(a)As of the date hereof, each of the Reporting Persons may be deemed to be the beneficial owner of 971,298 shares of Common Stock, constituting 23.09% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Issuer, based on issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock as stated by the Issuer in its Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended June 30, 2017.

 

(b)Each of the Reporting Persons (i) has the sole power to vote or direct the vote of no shares of Common Stock; (ii) has the shared power to vote or direct the vote of 971,298 shares of Common Stock; (iii) has the sole power to dispose or direct the disposition of no shares of Common Stock; and (iv) has the shared power to dispose or direct the disposition of 971,298 shares of Common Stock.

 

Hillair Capital Management LLC (“Hillair Management”) is the investment advisor to Hillair Investments. By virtue of such relationship, Hillair Management may be deemed to have dispositive power over the shares owned by Hillair Investments. Hillair Management disclaims beneficial ownership of such shares.

 

As calculated in accordance with Rule 13d-3 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, Hillair Capital, Hillair Management, and McAvoy each beneficially own 971,298 shares of Common Stock of the Issuer, representing approximately 23.09% the outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Issuer. Hillair Management, and McAvoy do not directly own any shares of Common Stock, but each indirectly owns 971,298 shares of Common Stock. Hillair Management indirectly owns 971,298 shares of Common Stock because it serves as the investment manager of Hillair Investments, which directly holds 971,298 shares of Common Stock. McAvoy indirectly owns 971,298 shares of Common Stock in his capacity as manager of Hillair Management.

 

(c)On June 21, 2017, Hilliar Investments exchanged the Debentures and the Preferred Stock with a combined principal amount and stated value, respectively, of $6,282,722 in exchange for $1,500,000 in cash and 1,634,147 shares of Common Stock. On or about June 21, 2017, Hillair Investments transferred 815,000 shares of such Common Stock to non-affiliate limited partners at Hillair Investments. On June 27, 2017, Hillair Investments purchased 110,000 shares of Common Stock at a purchase price of $5.00 per share, for an aggregate purchase price of $550,000.

 

(d)Not applicable.
