(f) Mr. Petit is a citizen of the United States.



ITEM 3.	SOURCE AND AMOUNT OF FUNDS OR OTHER CONSIDERATION

The source and amount of funds or other consideration for previous acquisitions of shares, convertible debt, warrants and options were reported in the Schedule 13D as filed on March 6, 2009, and the Prior Amendments.

The options and restricted stock held by Mr. Petit were granted by the Issuer's Board of Directors as compensation for Mr. Petit's services as Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer. Mr. Petit has acquired Common Stock through the exercise of options (by payment of the applicable exercise price to the Company) and through the vesting of restricted stock. Mr. Petit purchased 131,925 shares in the open market on November 10, 2015.



ITEM 4	PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION

The information set forth in Item 3 is hereby incorporated herein by reference.

As previously reported in the Prior Amendments, Mr. Petit acquired Common Stock for investment purposes through the Issuer’s various private placements of stock, warrants and convertible debt in 2009, 2010 and 2011, and the exercise of such warrants and the conversion of such convertible debt. Additionally, the Issuer has granted options and restricted stock to Mr. Petit as compensation for his services as Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer. The options and restricted stock vest in accordance with the terms of such grants. Mr. Petit has acquired Common Stock through the exercise of options (by payment of the applicable exercise price) and through the vesting of restricted stock. Further, Mr. Petit purchased 131,925 shares in the open market on November 10, 2015.

Mr. Petit previously reported beneficial ownership of an aggregate of 1,350,000 shares held by six Grantor Retained Annuity Trusts (GRATs) over which Mr. Petit served as Trustee and possessed sole voting and investment control. On November 17, 2015, Mr. Petit resigned as Trustee of each of the GRATs, and, as such, ceased to have beneficial ownership of the shares as of that date.

It is expected that Mr. Petit’s outstanding options and restricted stock will continue to vest in accordance with the terms of the applicable grants and that he may exercise his options once vested. In addition, it is currently expected that consistent with past practice, there may be future issuances of options and/or restricted stock to Mr. Petit. It is also currently expected that other employees, consultants and directors of the Issuer may in the future be issued options and/or restricted stock by the Issuer (as well as continue to vest in existing options and restricted stock grants), and as Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Petit will evaluate any such issuances.

Mr. Petit intends to participate in and influence the affairs of the Issuer through the exercise of voting rights with respect to shares of Common Stock. In addition, Mr. Petit will influence the affairs of the Issuer in his capacity as the Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer of the Issuer. From time to time, Mr. Petit intends to review the performance of his investments and consider or explore a variety of alternatives, including, without limitation: (a) the acquisition of additional securities of the Issuer or the disposition of securities of the Issuer; (b) an extraordinary corporate transaction, such as a merger, reorganization, or liquidation, involving the Issuer or any of its subsidiaries; (c) a sale or transfer of a material amount of assets of the Issuer or any of its subsidiaries; (d) a change in the present Board of Directors or management of the Issuer; (e) a material change in the present capitalization or dividend policy of the Issuer; (f) any other material change in the Issuer’s business or corporate structure; (g) changes in the Issuer’s charter, bylaws, or instruments corresponding thereto, or other actions that may impede the acquisition of control of the Issuer by any person; (h) causing a class of securities of the Issuer to cease to be authorized to be quoted in an inter-dealer quotation system of a registered national securities association; (i) causing a class of equity securities of the Issuer to become eligible for termination of registration pursuant to Section 12(g)(4) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended; or (j) any action similar to any of those enumerated above. Any alternatives that Mr. Petit may pursue will depend upon a variety of factors, including, without limitation, current and anticipated future trading prices for the Common Stock; the financial condition, results of operations, and prospects of the Issuer; general economic, financial market, and industry conditions; and the investment objectives of Mr. Petit. Except as set forth above, Mr. Petit has no present plans or proposals with respect to any of the matters set forth in paragraphs (a) through (j) of Item 4 of the Schedule 13D.



ITEM 5	INTEREST IN SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER

(a) The aggregate number of shares of the Issuer’s Common Stock beneficially owned by Mr. Petit is 7,558,144. Of these, 4,515,881 shares are owned directly by Mr. Petit; (ii) 39,240 shares are owned by the Foundation as to which shares Mr. Petit disclaims beneficial ownership; (iii) 2,783,783 shares are shares subject to options exercisable within 60 days; and (iv) 219,240 are shares of restricted stock which vest in accordance with the terms of the grant.
