| Item 4. | Ownership |
Provide the following information regarding the aggregate number and percentage of the class of securities of the issuer identified in Item 1.
The information required by Items 4(a) - (c) is set forth in Rows (5)-(11) of the cover page for each Reporting Person hereto and is incorporated herein by reference for each such Reporting Person.
The shares of Common Stock owned by the Reporting Persons include (a) 153,846 shares of Common Stock owned directly by Erich Spangenberg, (b) 150,000 shares of Common Stock held directly by TT IP, LLC (“TT IP”), of which Erich Spangenberg is the beneficial owner; (c) 48,077 shares of Common Stock held directly by IPNav Capital, LLC (“IPNav Capital”), of which Erich Spangenberg is the beneficial owner; (d) 461,539 shares directly owned by TechDev Holdings, LLC (“TechDev”), of which Audrey Spangenberg is the beneficial owner, (e) 195,500 shares of Common Stock issuable (subject to the blocker) upon conversion of shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock held directly by TechDev, of which Audrey Spangenberg is the beneficial owner, (f) 195,500 shares of Common Stock issuable (subject to the blocker) upon conversion of shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock held directly by Granicus IP, LLC (“Granicus”), of which Erich Spangenberg is the beneficial owner, and (g) 24,039 shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of a Warrant held by IPNav Capital, of which Erich Spangenberg is the beneficial owner.
Erich Spangenberg is the sole member of TT IP. Accordingly, Erich Spangenberg may be deemed to beneficially own all of the shares that are owned by TT IP.
IP Navigation Group, LLC is the sole member of IPNav Capital. Erich Spangenberg is the managing member and owner of 90% of the membership interests in IP Navigation Group, LLC. Accordingly, Erich Spangenberg may be deemed to beneficially own all of the shares that are owned by IPNav Capital.
Acclaim Financial Group, LLC (“AFG”) is the sole member of TechDev. Accordingly, AFG may be deemed to beneficially own all of the shares of Common Stock that are owned by TechDev. Audrey Spangenberg is the sole managing member of AFG, and accordingly may be deemed to beneficially own all of the shares that are owned by TechDev.
Erich Spangenberg owns 99% of the membership interests of Granicus. Accordingly, Erich Spangenberg may be deemed to beneficially own all of the shares that are owned by Granicus.

Erich Spangenberg, the spouse of Audrey Spangenberg, may be deemed to beneficially own all of the shares of Common Stock that are owned by Audrey Spangenberg and Audrey Spangenberg may be deemed to beneficially own all of the shares of Common Stock that are owned by Erich Spangenberg
The Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 31, 2014, indicates that the total number of outstanding shares of Common Stock as of March 28, 2014 was 5,489,593. The percentages set forth on Row (11) of the cover page for each Reporting Person is based on the Company’s outstanding shares of Common Stock and assumes the conversion of the reported convertible preferred stock (the “Reported Convertible Preferred Stock”) subject to the 9.99% Blocker (as defined below).
Pursuant to the terms of the Reported Convertible Preferred Stock, the Reporting Persons cannot convert any of the Reported Convertible Preferred Stock if the Reporting Persons would beneficially own, after any such conversion more than 9.99% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock (the “9.99% Blocker”) and the percentage set forth in Row (11) of the cover page for each Reporting Person gives effect to the 9.99% Blocker. Consequently, at this time, the Reporting Persons are not able to convert any of the Reported Convertible Preferred Stock due to the 9.99% Blocker.
| Item 5. | Ownership of Five Percent or Less of a Class |
If this statement is being filed to report the fact that as of the date hereof the reporting person has ceased to be the beneficial owner of more than five percent of the class of securities, check the following [ ].
