Item 4. Purpose of Transaction
     Item 4 is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following:
     On October 11, 2008, the Issuer entered into a Series A Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with each of the Gamma Trust, Vector Group Ltd., I.L.A.R. S.p.A., Halpryn Group IV, LLC, Lafferty Limited, Jacqueline Simkin Trust As Amended and Restated 12/16/2003, Hsu Gamma Investment, L.P., MZ Trading LLC and Richard J. Lampen (collectively, the “Purchasers” and collectively, without the Gamma Trust, the “Other Purchasers”), providing for the issuance and sale of $15,000,000 (the “Purchase Price”) of the Series A Preferred Stock, an aggregate of 1,200,000 shares, at a purchase price of $12.50 per share (which is, in effect upon conversion, $0.35 per Common Share). Each share of Series A Preferred Stock will, as described below, be automatically converted into Common Shares at a rate of 35.7143 Common Shares for each share of Series A Preferred Stock, subject to adjustment as set forth in the Certificate of Designation of the Series A Preferred Stock (the “Certificate of Designation”). The closing of the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement (the “Closing”) occurred on Monday, October 20, 2008. The issuance of the shares of Series A Preferred Stock was made pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
Board Composition. In connection with and as required by the Purchase Agreement, upon execution of the Purchase Agreement, four of the Issuer’s nine directors, Keith Bellinger, Colm Leen, Kevin Tighe and Robert Flanagan, resigned and the remaining five members of the Board of Directors of the Issuer (the “Board”) appointed four directors designated by the Purchasers, Dr. Frost, Glenn Halpryn, Richard J. Lampen and Micaela Pallini, to serve on the Board to fill such vacancies.
Management. In connection with the transaction, effective October 11, 2008, the Board appointed new management to replace Donald L. Marsh, who had acted as the Issuer’s President and Chief Operating Officer. Mr. Lampen was appointed to serve as the Issuer’s interim President and Chief Executive Officer, and John Glover, the Issuer’s Senior Vice President — Marketing, was promoted to the position of Chief Operating Officer of US Operations.
Stockholder Meeting. As provided by the Purchase Agreement, the Issuer’s stockholders will be asked to vote on the following at a special meeting that will be held on a date to be announced by the Issuer:
    amendments to the Issuer’s charter to increase the authorized shares of the Issuer to 250,000,000 shares, 225,000,000 shares of which will be designated as Common Shares and 25,000,000 shares of which will be designated as preferred stock, and to permit stockholders to act by written consent and
 
    the election of a to be determined number of directors designated by the Purchasers who purchased a majority of the shares under the Purchase Agreement as the sole directors comprising the Board.
Conversion of Series A Preferred Stock. As part of each Purchaser’s agreement with the Issuer, each Purchaser will vote in favor of the foregoing proposals. After the amendment to the Issuer’s charter to increase its authorized shares is approved by stockholders, each outstanding share of Series A Preferred Stock will be automatically converted into 35.7143 Common Shares.

Conversion and/or Amendment of Notes. Concurrently with the Closing, (a) all of the Issuer’s 6% convertible notes, in the principal amount of $9 million, due March 1, 2010, plus accrued interest, were converted into shares of Series A Preferred Stock at a per share price of $23.21 (which is, in effect upon conversion, $0.65 per Common Share) and (b) substantially all of the outstanding principal of the Issuer’s 9% senior secured notes, in the principal amount of $10 million, due May 31, 2009, plus accrued interest, were converted into shares of Series A Preferred Stock at a per share price of $12.50 (which is, in effect upon conversion, $0.35 per Common Share), and the remaining unconverted notes (in the principal amount of $300,000) were amended so that, among other things, (i) the maturity date was extended to May 31, 2014, (ii) the interest rate was reduced to 3%, payable at maturity, and (iii) the security interest in the collateral of the Issuer will be terminated. Following the Closing, holders of Series A Preferred Stock (comprised of the Purchasers and the converting note holders, many of which were stockholders of the Issuer prior to the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement) own, excluding their prior ownership, approximately 85% of the Common Shares on an as-converted basis.
Representations and Warranties; Covenants. The Purchase Agreement contains customary representations and warranties by the Issuer and each of the Purchasers. The Purchase Agreement also contains customary covenants and agreements, including with respect to the operation of the business of the Issuer and its subsidiaries between signing and the conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock, governmental filings and approvals, public disclosures and similar matters. Until the conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock into Common Shares, the Issuer must conduct its business in the ordinary course and use its best efforts to preserve its business organization and significant business relationships. In addition, the Issuer cannot (except in certain cases in the ordinary course and consistent with past practice) take a number of specified actions that are customarily prohibited pending a closing.
Indemnification. The Issuer must indemnify each Purchaser against losses relating to (i) any breach of the Issuer’s representations or covenants or (ii) any claim brought against the Purchasers by a third party, arising out of or resulting from the execution, delivery, performance or enforcement of the transaction documents or the status of the Purchasers as holders of the Issuer’s shares. No Purchaser will be entitled to indemnification unless the amount of loss exceeds $50,000, and the Issuer’s maximum liability will not exceed the Purchase Price.
Fees and Expenses. The Issuer must pay the Purchasers’ expenses incurred in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement.
Termination of Credit Agreement. In connection with the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement, the Credit Agreement, dated October 22, 2007, by and between the Issuer and the Nevada Trust (the “Frost Credit Agreement”), was terminated. The terms of the Frost Credit Agreement enabled the Issuer to borrow up to $5.0 million. As of the execution of the Purchase Agreement, no amounts were outstanding under the Frost Credit Agreement. The Frost Credit Agreement was terminated in partial consideration of the Purchasers’ execution and delivery of the Purchase Agreement and the performance of the transactions contemplated thereby.
Certificate of Designation. The Certificate of Designation, which was filed with and accepted by the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware on October 9, 2008, establishes the rights, designations, preferences, qualifications, privileges, limitations and restrictions of the Series A Preferred Stock.
Dividends. Dividends may be paid on the Common Shares only if dividends are paid on the Series A Preferred Stock in an amount for each such share of Series A Preferred Stock equal to or greater than the aggregate amount of such dividends for all shares of the Common Shares into which each such share of Series A Preferred Stock could then be converted.

Preference on Liquidation. In the event of any liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Issuer, the assets of the Issuer available for distribution to stockholders will be distributed as follows:
    First, the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock will be entitled to receive, before any payment is made to holders of the Common Shares or any other junior securities, $0.01 per share of Series A Preferred Stock.
 
    If the foregoing is insufficient to permit the payment to such holders of the full preferential amounts described above, then all of the Issuer’s assets will be distributed ratably among the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock in proportion to the amount of such Series A Preferred Stock owned by each such holder.
 
    After paying in full the preferential amounts due the holders of Series A Preferred Stock, the remaining assets of the Issuer, if any, will be distributed among the holders of the shares of Series A Preferred Stock and Common Shares, pro rata based on the number of shares held by each such holder, on an as-converted basis.
Voting. Holders of shares of Series A Preferred Stock are entitled to vote on all matters submitted to a vote of the Issuer’s stockholders on an as-converted basis. Except as otherwise required by law, the holders of shares of Series A Preferred Stock and Common Shares will vote together as a single class, and not as separate classes.
Automatic Conversion. Each share of Series A Preferred Stock will automatically be converted into Common Shares, at the then effective conversion rate, upon the filing of an amendment to the Issuer’s charter, which, once effective, makes available a sufficient number of authorized but unissued and unreserved Common Shares to permit all then outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock to be converted. The conversion rate is 35.7143 Common Shares for each share of Series A Preferred Stock, and is subject to customary adjustment for dilutive issuances.
The number of shares of Series A Preferred Stock purchased by each Purchaser and the Purchase Price paid by such Purchaser are set forth in the table below.
