ITEM 3. SOURCE AND AMOUNT OF FUNDS OR OTHER CONSIDERATION.

The aggregate cost of the 6,399,361 shares of Common Stock initially acquired by ESW is approximately $2,405,598 , inclusive of any applicable brokerage commissions. In addition, pursuant to a subscription agreement and related customary documentation, on October 10, 2018, ESW acquired 9,990,506 units from the Issuer for an aggregate purchase price of $3,707,104 ($0.37106265 per unit) as part of a financing by the Issuer (the “Financing Transaction”), consisting of (i) $0.10 in senior secured debt (the “Secured Debt”), secured by all of the assets of the Issuer and guaranteed by each of its domestic subsidiaries, having an interest rate of prime plus $0.75% and a maturity date of June 30, 2021 (as set forth in the Amended and Restated Term Loan Credit Agreement, dated as of February 23, 2018, between the Company, HCP-FVA, LLC and certain other loan parties named therein, (ii) warrants to purchase 12.233 shares of Common Stock with an exercise price of $0.001 per share (the “Financing Warrants”), and (iii) 0.0225 shares of the Issuer’s Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $.001 per share (the “Series A Preferred Stock”), at a per unit purchase price of $0.271063 (subject to adjustment to take into account accretion of dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock). Accordingly, pursuant to the Financing Transaction, ESW acquired $999,051 in Secured Debt, Financing Warrants exercisable for an aggregate of 122,214,132 shares of Common Stock, and 224,786 shares of Series A Preferred Stock, which, subject to the 9.99% Blocker described below, are currently convertible into 2,708,053 shares of Common Stock.

The terms of the Financing Transaction, including the material documentation relating thereto, are further described in the Issuer’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on October 11, 2018.
