Item 14.  Indemnification of Directors and Officers.
 
Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, or the DGCL, provides that a corporation may indemnify any person made a party to an action (other than an action by or in the right of the corporation) by reason of the fact that he or she was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation or was serving at the request of the corporation against expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines, and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by him or her in connection with such action if he or she acted in good faith and in a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the corporation and, with respect to any criminal action (other than an action by or in the right of the corporation), has no reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful.
 
Item 15.  Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities.
 
On March 12, 2008, we entered into subscription agreements with 24 investors pursuant to which we agreed to sell an aggregate of 60,686,732 shares of common stock to the investors at a purchase price of $0.15 per share for potential gross proceeds to us of approximately $9,103,010. We refer to this financing as the March 2008 Financing. One of the original investors entered into a side agreement to offer a portion of its subscription to an additional investor prior to closing, resulting in 25 total investors for the March 2008 Financing. The closing of the March 2008 Financing was expected to occur on a rolling basis through June 15, 2008.
 
One investor in the March 2008 Financing initially subscribed to purchase 26,666,667 shares of common stock at $0.15 per share for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $4,000,000. Such investor had previously advanced $700,000 to us as part of the outstanding balance for its subscribed shares. We informed such investor that the deadline for payment of the remaining balance of $3,300,000 would be June 13, 2008. On June 13, 2008, such investor informed us that it would be unable to tender payment of the remaining balance on that date. On June 17, 2008, we and the investor amended such investor’s subscription agreement to reduce the number of subscribed shares from 26,666,667 to 4,666,667 for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $700,000. We accepted such investor’s amended subscription for the reduced number of shares and agreed to reduce the total size of the March 2008 Financing from 60,686,732 offered shares to 38,686,732 offered shares for total gross proceeds to us of approximately $5,803,010. We closed the March 2008 Financing on June 17, 2008.
 
On June 10, 2007, we entered into subscription agreements with 3 investors pursuant to which we agreed to sell an aggregate of 937,500 shares of common stock to the investors at a purchase price of $0.80 per share, resulting in net proceeds to us of approximately $750,000. We refer to this financing as the June 2007 Financing. We also agreed to issue the investors warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 937,500 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $1.428 per share. The closing of the June 2007 Financing occurred on June 10, 2007.
 
Subsequent to the closing of the June 2007 Financing, a dispute arose between us and the investors as a result of administrative non-conformance relating to the subscription agreements. On June 17, 2008, our board of directors agreed to resolve the dispute by restructuring the terms of the June 2007 Financing and entering into an amended and restated subscription agreement with the investors. We entered into the amended and restated subscription agreement with the investors on June 27, 2008. Pursuant to the restructuring, we reduced the purchase price for the shares of common stock issued in the June 2007 Financing to $0.15 per share and issued an aggregate of 4,062,500 additional shares of common stock to the investors, resulting in the sale and issuance of an aggregate total of 5,000,000 shares of common stock to the investors. In addition, we and the investors agreed to cancel and terminate the warrants, which were not previously issued by us to the investors. The restructuring did not change the gross proceeds received by us from the June 2007 Financing, which remain approximately $750,000.
 
Simultaneously with closing the transactions contemplated by the reorganization agreement with Thatcher, dated as of February 9, 2007, we accepted subscriptions for a total of 17,615,000 shares of our common stock, at a purchase price of $0.20 per share, from a group of accredited investors. We received gross proceeds of $3,523,000 from the offering, and net cash proceeds of $3,455,000, after deducting a finder’s fee of $68,000 which was payable in cash.
 
In addition, we issued shares of our common stock as compensation for services rendered in connection with such offerings, including, but not limited to, finder’s fees.
 
The shares of common stock sold in the private placement offerings were offered and sold in reliance upon exemptions from registration pursuant to Regulation S promulgated under the Securities Act. The shares of our common stock were offered and sold in “offshore transactions,” as defined in Regulation S, and no “directed selling efforts,” as defined in Regulation S, were made in the United States by us, a distributor of our shares of common stock, any of their or our respective affiliates, or any person acting on behalf of any of the foregoing. In addition, the subscription agreements for these private placement offerings contain representations to support our reasonable belief that the investors in such offerings were non-“U.S. persons,” as defined by Regulation S.

II-1


Pursuant to the reorganization agreement with Thatcher, we issued 32,000,000 shares of our common stock, which we refer to as the Reorganization Shares, to the shareholders of Thatcher in exchange for 100% of the common shares of Thatcher. The issuance of the Reorganization Shares to the shareholders of Thatcher pursuant to the reorganization agreement was exempt from registration under the Securities Act pursuant to Section 4(2) thereof. 
 
Item 16. Exhibits and Financial Statement Schedules.
 
(a) The exhibits set forth commencing on page II-4 are included herein or incorporated by reference.
 
(b) Financial Statement Schedules.
 
The financial statement schedules have been omitted because they are not applicable, not required, or the information is included in the consolidated financial statements or notes thereto.
 
Item 17.  Undertakings.
 
(a) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:
 
(1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement:
 
(i) To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act;
 
(ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective registration statement;
 
(iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement.
 
(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
 
(3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.
 
(4) That, for the purpose of determining liability under the Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser, each prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) as part of a registration statement relating to an offering, other than registration statements relying on Rule 430B or other than prospectuses filed in reliance on Rule 430A, shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of the date it is first used after effectiveness. Provided, however, that no statement made in a registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement or made in a document incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference into the registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement will, as to a purchaser with a time of contract of sale prior to such first use, supersede or modify any statement that was made in the registration statement or prospectus that was part of the registration statement or made in any such document immediately prior to such date of first use.
 
(5) That, for the purpose of determining liability of the registrant under the Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser in the initial distribution of the securities: The undersigned registrant undertakes that in a primary offering of securities of the undersigned registrant pursuant to this registration statement, regardless of the underwriting method used to sell the securities to the purchaser, if the securities are offered or sold to such purchaser by means of any of the following communications, the undersigned registrant will be a seller to the purchaser and will be considered to offer or sell such securities to such purchaser:
 
(i) Any preliminary prospectus or prospectus of the undersigned registrant relating to the offering required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424;
 
(ii) Any free writing prospectus relating to the offering prepared by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant or used or referred to by the undersigned registrant;
 
(iii) The portion of any other free writing prospectus relating to the offering containing material information about the undersigned registrant or its securities provided by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant; and
 
(iv) Any other communication that is an offer in the offering made by the undersigned registrant to the purchaser.
 
(b) Insofar as indemnification by the registrant for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act, and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer, or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
