NOTE 1: Concept Asset Management (“CAM”), a division of Concept Capital Markets, LLC (“CCM”) is a registered investment adviser under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940. CCM is also registered as a broker-dealer with the SEC, as an Introducing Broker with the CFTC, a member of FINRA and a member of NFA. In its role as investment adviser, CAM possesses discretionary investment authority to determine the identity and amount of securities to be bought and sold, including the securities reported in this schedule. All securities reported in this schedule are owned by various clients, who have retained sole proxy voting authority over all of the shares. In addition, the shares were acquired by CAM through a transfer from the clients after the CAM-managed accounts were opened and were not purchased for the accounts by CAM. However, CAM has sole authority to dispose of the position as appropriate. The filing of this Schedule 13G should not be construed as an admission that CAM or any of its affiliates is the beneficial owner of any securities covered by this Schedule 13G for any purpose other than filings required to be made under Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and related rules.
NOTE 2: CAM previously reported this issuer and the same total number of shares beneficially owned by CAM as discretionary investment manager in the Information Table filed by CAM as part of its 1st quarter 2012 Form 13F filing. The failure to file timely a corresponding 13G for this issuer was a wholly unintentional error.
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 []. Not Applicable.
Item 6. Ownership of more than Five Percent on Behalf of Another Person.
The securities as to which this Schedule is filed by CAM, in its capacity as investment adviser, are owned of record by individual clients. The clients have the right to receive, or the power to direct the receipt of, dividends from, or the proceeds from the sale of, such securities. To the best of CAM’s knowledge and belief, no such client is known to have such right or power with respect to more than five percent of this class of securities. The filing of this statement shall not be construed as an admission that CAM is, for the purposes of sections 13(d) or 13(g) of the Act, the beneficial owner of any securities covered by the statement..
