(OTCQB: PFGB), the innovative manufacturer and commercial provider of advanced prescription lenses, finished eyewear and vision technologies, today announced it has taken strategic operational steps focused on achieving cash flow break even through a targeted reduction in operating costs.

The initiative, led by a streamlining of its management organization, involves the elimination of certain positions by December 31, 2015. Positions include Executive Vice President of Engineering, Chief Financial Officer, Executive Vice President of Operations and Executive Vice President of Information Technology. The Company also eliminated certain engineering and marketing positions to reduce its operating costs. 

The Company also announced that it sold an aggregate of $252,000 in principal amount of an 8% original issue discount senior secured convertible debenture to Hillair Capital Investments L.P. for an aggregate purchase price of $225,000 on November 13, 2015. The Company also issued to Hillair a five year warrant to purchase an aggregate of 126,000 shares of its common stock.
