CUSIP No. 23258P105

The following constitutes Amendment No. 2 to the Schedule 13D filed by the undersigned (“Amendment No. 2”). This Amendment No. 2 amends the Schedule 13D as specifically set forth herein.

Item 2.Identity and Background.

Item 2 is hereby amended and restated to read as follows:

(a)       This statement is filed by:

(i)Horton Capital Partners Fund, LP, a Delaware limited partnership (“HCPF”), with respect to the Shares directly owned by it;
(ii)Horton Capital Partners LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“HCP”), as the general partner of HCPF;
(iii)Horton Capital Management, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“HCM”), as the investment manager of HCPF; and
(iv)Joseph M. Manko, Jr. (“Mr. Manko”), as the Managing Member of each of HCP and HCM.

Each of the foregoing is referred to as a “Reporting Person” and collectively as the “Reporting Persons.” Each of the Reporting Persons is party to that certain Joint Filing Agreement, as described in Item 6 of the Schedule 13D.

(b)       The address of the principal office of each of the Reporting Persons is 1717 Arch Street, Suite 3920, Philadelphia, PA 19103.

(c)       The principal business of HCPF is purchasing, holding and selling securities for investment purposes. The principal business of HCP is serving as the general partner of HCPF.

CUSIP No. 23258P105

Item 3.Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.

Item 3 is hereby amended and restated to read as follows:

The Shares purchased by HCPF were purchased with working capital (which may, at any given time, include margin loans made by brokerage firms in the ordinary course of business) in open market purchases, except as otherwise noted.

The aggregate purchase price of the 650,416 Shares directly owned by HCPF is approximately $2,206,597, including brokerage commissions, 55,824 Shares of which were purchased by HCPF pursuant to the February 7 Letter Agreement (as defined in the Schedule 13D).

On April 3, 2020, HCM entered into the Securities Purchase Agreement (as defined and described in Item 4 of Amendment No. 1 to the Schedule 13D) with the Issuer. In consideration for its obligations under the Securities Purchase Agreement, HCM received a warrant (the “Initial Warrant”), with a 10-year term, to purchase up to 500,000 Shares (the “Warrant Shares”), for an exercise price of $2.50 per share, subject to certain anti-dilution adjustments and limitations, as set forth in the Initial Warrant, including a conversion cap which precludes the Holder (as defined in the Securities Purchase Agreement) from exercising all or a portion of the Initial Warrant if, after such exercise, such Holder would beneficially own, as determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, more than 9.99% of the Shares outstanding immediately after giving effect to such exercise (the “9.99% Beneficial Ownership Limitation”). On April 7, 2020, HCM transferred the Initial Warrant to HCPF.

Item 4.Purpose of Transaction.

Item 4 is hereby amended to add the following:

On August 18, 2020, the client of the Horton Managed Account terminated that certain investment advisory agreement with HCM. As a result, HCM no longer retains voting or dispositive power with respect to the 303,872 Shares held in the Horton Managed Account (the “Managed Account Termination”), representing 100% of the client’s interest in the Issuer.

Item 5.Interest in Securities of the Issuer.

Items 5(a) – (c) are hereby amended and restated to read as follows:

The aggregate percentage of Shares reported owned by each person named herein is based upon a denominator that is the sum of: (i) 10,597,024 Shares outstanding, as of August 12, 2020, which is the total number of Shares outstanding as reported in the Issuer’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on August 13, 2020, and (ii) certain of the 500,000 Shares underlying the Initial Warrant. As of the close of business on August 19, 2020, the 9.99% Beneficial Ownership Limitation limits the exercise of the Initial Warrant to 454,148 of the 500,000 Shares underlying the Initial Warrant.
