  Item 1.01
  Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement
  On November 23, 2015, the Company entered into an agreement with its senior lenders, including majority lender MSD Credit Opportunity Master Fund, L.P., ("Senior Lenders"), which grants the Company the right to extend the maturity date of a $40 million first tranche of its mortgage debt ("First Mortgage") from March 2016 to June 2017.  Under the agreement with its Senior Lenders, if the Company elects to extend the First Mortgage, it must make a $9 million payment prior to March 5, 2016. This $9 million payment will reduce the Company's outstanding mortgage balance.
  The Company paid its Senior Lenders an amendment fee of $2.25 million in additional debt for the right to extend the maturity date of the First Mortgage to June 2017, which is concurrent with the existing due date of the $12 million second tranche of the Company's mortgage debt.  Should the Company opt to extend the First Mortgage maturity date, then it will incur an additional fee of $2.25 million payable in either additional term loans or shares of the Company's common stock, $0.01 par value per share, at the Senior Lenders' option.  The offering and issuance of the shares pursuant to this option are being made pursuant to an effective Registration Statement on Form S-3, Registration No. 333-190288.  If the First Mortgage is extended, interest will continue to accrue at 8%.
  Also on November 23, 2015, the Company entered into agreements with a majority of its convertible note holders to exchange their outstanding convertible notes presently due in March 2018 for substantially similar convertible notes due in March 2020 ("Convertible Notes" or "Notes"), at a ratio of $1.00 in principal amount of new Convertible Notes for each $1.00 of accreted principal amount of existing convertible notes exchanged.  As of the date of this Current Report on Form 8-K, holders of $49,025,000 million in aggregate original principal amount of the Company's existing convertible notes have agree to exchange them for new Convertible notes pursuant to such agreements.  In exchange for this maturity extension, the conversion rate on the new convertible notes will be reduced from $8.05 to $6.75 of accreted principal amount per share.  Interest will continue to accrue at 7% with no payment due until maturity.  The Convertible Note exchange will become effective upon satisfaction of customary conditions, at which time, the covenants restricting indebtedness and asset sales under the indenture for the existing convertible notes will no longer apply.  The indenture governing the new Convertible Notes will contain substantially similar covenants restricting indebtedness and asset sales as are currently contained in the indenture for the existing convertible notes.
