Item 7.01  REGULATION FD DISCLOSURE
         -------------------------------------------------------------

As of October 25, 2012, we entered into a preferred stock and warrant purchase agreements (the “Purchase Agreement”) with accredited investors whereby we agreed to sell certain units to these investors. Each unit consists of one share of newly issued Access Series B convertible preferred stock, par value $0.01 per share (“Series B Convertible Preferred Stock”) and a warrants in a private placement with existing investors. The Series B Convertible Preferred Stock is convertible into common stock at $0.50 per share, and the unit provided for 100% warrant coverage with an exercise price of $0.50 per share and a term of six years. The units will be issued at a price of $0.50 per unit. The financing consisted of approximately $4.3 million of new investment and the conversion of approximately $5.3 million of outstanding dividends payable.
 
Common Stock Purchase Warrants
 
The Warrants issued upon closing will be exercisable for an aggregate of up to approximately 19.2 million shares of our Common Stock at an exercise price of $0.50 per share. Under certain circumstances, the warrants can also be exercised on a cashless basis. The warrants will expire six years from the date of issuance. The warrant exercise price is subject to adjustment, under certain circumstances, including an equitable adjustment for stock splits, dividends, combinations, reorganizations and the like.
The preceding discussion is qualified in its entirety by, and is subject to, the full text of the Purchase Agreement and the Form of Warrant.
 
Agreements will be filed separately as exhibits to a Form 8-K that will be filed by the Company.
