Item 5.    Interest in Securities of the Issuer.

Item 5 is hereby amended by replacing the paragraph contained in Item 5(a) with the following paraagraphs:

As of January 25, 2018, the Reporting Person owned 423,791 shares of Common Stock, or approximately 9.4% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock. The 423,791 shares include 35,905 shares subject to Presently Exercisable Warrants and 16,000 shares subject to Presently Exercisable Options. Does not include (i) the potential issuance of up to an aggregate of 497,528 shares of common stock upon the conversion of 2,104.54 shares of the Company’s Series A Preferred Stock, which were issued for cash consideration to Mr. Burish on May 30, 2017, June 8, 2017, August 23, 2017 and November 9, 2017 and (ii) the potential issuance of up to an aggregate of 491,872 shares of common stock upon the conversion of two $500,000 Notes, plus accrued interest, into 2,080.62 shares of Series A Preferred Stock, which Notes were issued for cash consideration to Mr. Burish by the Company on January 19, 2018.

On November 17, 2017 (the “Agreement Date”), the Company entered into an Agreement Not to Convert (the “Agreement Not to Convert”) with Mark D. Burish, pursuant to which Burish agreed that, until the stockholders of the Company approve the issuance by the Company of all of Burish’s currently owned and to be acquired shares of Series A Preferred Stock, Burish would waive his right to convert into Common Stock all or any of the Series A Preferred Stock currently owned or to be acquired by him. The agreement of Burish to waive his right to convert all or any of his shares of Series A Preferred Stock into Common Stock will no longer be effective at such time as the stockholders of the Company approve the issuance of all of Burish’s currently owned and to be acquired shares of Series A Preferred Stock.
