Item 5 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and restated to read as follows:

On the date of this Schedule 13D (Amendment No. 2), the Filing Persons are the beneficial owners of a total of 12,774,300 shares of Common Stock, representing approximately 15.7% of the Issuer’s outstanding Common Stock. Such beneficial ownership percentage has been calculated as a percentage of 81,279,831 shares outstanding, consisting of 71,279,831 shares outstanding as of June 20, 2012, as disclosed by the Issuer in its prospectus dated June 22, 2012 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on June 22, 2012, plus 10,000,000 shares issued in the public offering made pursuant to said prospectus.
