Item 3.           Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration

Item 3 of the Prior Filing is hereby supplemented with the following paragraphs:

Effective December 23, 2009, the Company executed a First Amendment to Business Loan Agreement and Convertible Secured Promissory Note (the "Note Amendment") amending the Note and its related Business Loan Agreement, both dated February 26, 2009.  Among other things, the Note Amendment:  (a) reduced the rate of interest on the Note to 25% per annum, (b) extended the maturity date of the Note to February 24, 2012, and (c) made the entire outstanding principal amount of, and all accrued but unpaid interest due under, the Note convertible into common shares of the Company.  The Note and Note Amendment are attached to this Amendment as exhibits (Exhibit 99.10 and 99.11, respectively).

Item 4.
Purpose of the transaction
 
Item 4 of the Prior Filing is hereby amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows:
 
On September 8, 2010, ACF converted all but a nominal amount of the outstanding principal amount of, and accrued but unpaid interest due under, the Note into Shares of the Company.  The aggregate outstanding principal amount and accrued but unpaid interest due under the Note as of September 8, 2010 was approximately $3,307,279.26.  The conversion rate was $0.0906 per share.  As a result of the conversion, the Company will issue to ACF approximately 36,504,180 Shares (the "Conversion Shares").  The Conversion Shares represent approximately 27.5% of the Company's outstanding Shares, based on 96,458,028 Shares outstanding as of August 6, 2010.  The nominal amount remaining due under the Note after the conversion described in this paragraph will continue to accrue interest pursuant to the terms of the Note.  The aggregate amount of principal and interest due under the Note that ACF converted into the Conversion Shares is considered paid in full and may be re-borrowed by the Company.  Any amounts re-borrowed by the Company under the Note would be subject to conversion by ACF into additional Shares.

The Reporting Persons intend to continue having conversations with the Company's management to discuss the business and operations of the Company, strategic alternatives and the maximization of shareholder value. Also, consistent with their investment intent, the Reporting Persons may engage in communications with one or more shareholders of the Company, one or more officers of the Company and/or one or more members of the board of directors of the Company regarding the Company, including but not limited to its operations.

The Reporting Persons may, from time to time and at any time, acquire additional Shares and/or other equity, debt, notes, instruments or other securities of the Company (collectively, "Securities") in the open market or otherwise. The Reporting Persons reserve the right to dispose of any or all of their Securities in the open market or otherwise, at any time and from time to time, and to engage in any hedging or similar transactions with respect to the Securities.  No Reporting Person has made a determination regarding a maximum or minimum number of Securities which it may hold at any point in time.

The Reporting Persons, or any of them, may, at any time and from time to time, review or reconsider their position and/or change their purpose and/or formulate plans or proposals with respect thereto.

Item 5.            Interest in Securities of the Issuer

Paragraphs (a), (b) and (c) of Item 5 of the Prior Filing are amended and restated in their entirety to read as follows:

 
9

 

(a), (b)
The information set forth in Rows 7 through 13 of the cover page hereto for each Reporting Person is incorporated by reference.  The percentage amount set forth in Row 13 for all cover pages is calculated based upon 96,458,028 Shares outstanding as of August 6, 2010 as reported by the Company in its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended July 3, 2010 and filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on August 10, 2010.
 
Each of AML and Holdings may, by virtue of their relationship to ACM (as disclosed in Item 2), be deemed indirectly to own beneficially (as that term is defined in Rule 13d-3 of the Act) the Shares that ACM, ACF and CLC directly own.  ACM may, by virtue of its relationship to ACF and CLC (as disclosed in Item 2), be deemed indirectly to own beneficially the Shares that ACF and CLC directly own.  ACF may, by virtue of its relationship to CLC (as disclosed in Item 2), be deemed indirectly to own beneficially the Shares that CLC directly owns.

Pursuant to Rule 13d-4 of the Act, the Reporting Persons expressly declare that the filing of this statement will not be construed as an admission that any they are, for the purposes of Section 13(d) and/or Section 13(g) of the Act or otherwise, the beneficial owner of any Shares that are held by any other Reporting Person.
