As previously reported, on August 18, 2014, Milfam II and Trust C entered into a Letter Agreement (filed as Exhibit 10.2 to the Issuer’s Form 8-K filed on August 19, 2014, including all exhibits thereto, the “August 19 Form 8-K”), with the Issuer whereby Milfam II (i) elected to exercise its right of participation in a financing transaction in accordance with the Loan Agreement, (ii) requested that the right of participation be transferred to Trust C, and (iii) agreed to purchase up to 521,739 shares of Common Stock (the “August Shares”) of the Issuer for a purchase price of $1.15 per share.
