ABOUT THIS PROSPECTUS
This prospectus is part of a registration statement that we filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) utilizing a “shelf” registration process or continuous offering process. Under this shelf registration process, the selling stockholders may, from time to time, following the expiration of the lock-up period on August 9, 2014, sell the securities described in this prospectus in one or more offerings. This prospectus provides you with a description of the securities which may be offered by the selling stockholders. Each time a selling stockholder sells securities, the selling stockholder is required to provide you with this prospectus and, in certain cases, a prospectus supplement containing specific information about the selling stockholder and the terms of the securities being offered. That prospectus supplement may include additional risk factors or other special considerations applicable to those securities. Any prospectus supplement may also add, update, or change information in this prospectus. If there is any inconsistency between the information in this prospectus and any prospectus supplement, you should rely on the information in that prospectus supplement. You should read both this prospectus and any prospectus supplement together with additional information described under “Where You Can Find More Information.”

SELLING STOCKHOLDERS
On August 9, 2013, we issued 6,333,333 shares of the Company’s common stock to GP Investment Holdings, LLC (“GPI”) in exchange for the conversion of 95 shares of the Company’s Series B-1 preferred stock that GPI had purchased on the same date from Vicis Capital Master Fund in a private transaction. Pursuant to a registration rights agreement between us and GPI, we agreed to use our best efforts to file a registration statement covering 6,333,333 shares of common stock with the SEC no later than ninety (90) days after August 9, 2013. Pursuant to the registration rights agreement, GPI has agreed not to sell any shares of common stock held by it for a period of one year after August 9, 2013, subject to some customary exceptions. The registration statement containing this prospectus will satisfy our obligations pursuant to the registration rights agreement.
On March 31, 2013, we issued 100,000 shares of the Company’s common stock to Escalate Capital Partners SBIC I, L.P. (“Escalate”) in connection with the senior secured loan made by Escalate to the Company. Pursuant to the terms of a stock purchase and registration rights agreement dated March 28, 2013 between the Company and Escalate, we agreed to provide Escalate with the option to include the shares held by Escalate in any registration statement filed by the Company after the date thereof. Escalate has requested that the Company include these shares in the registration statement containing this prospectus, and accordingly, the registration statement containing this prospectus will satisfy our obligations pursuant to the stock purchase and registration rights agreement.
The following table sets forth the name of the selling stockholders, their current beneficial ownership of our securities, the number of shares offered for each selling stockholder’s account, and the amount and percentage of its beneficial ownership after this offering. The selling stockholders may from time to time offer and sell any or all of the shares pursuant to this prospectus. Because the selling stockholders are not obligated to sell the shares, we cannot estimate how many shares they will hold upon consummation of any such sales. “Beneficial ownership” here means direct or indirect voting or investment power over outstanding stock and stock which a person currently has the right to acquire or has the right to acquire within 60 days after the date of this prospectus. The information in the table is from the selling stockholders, reports furnished to us under rules of the SEC, and our stock ownership records as of the date of this prospectus.

DESCRIPTION OF COMMON STOCK
The following summary of the material features of our common stock is based on the applicable provisions of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, or DGCL, and on the provisions of our certificate of incorporation, as amended, and our bylaws, as amended, and is qualified entirely by reference to the applicable provisions of the DGCL, our certificate of incorporation, and our bylaws. For information on how to obtain copies of such documents, please refer to the heading “Where You Can Find More Information” in this prospectus.
General
The holders of our common stock are entitled to one vote per share on all matters to be voted upon by the stockholders. There are no cumulative voting rights, so the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares have the ability to elect all of the directors. Subject to preferences that may be applicable to any outstanding preferred stock, the holders of common stock are entitled to receive ratably any dividends that may be declared from time to time by our board of directors out of funds legally available for that purpose. In the event of our liquidation, dissolution, or winding up, the holders of common stock are entitled to share ratably in all assets remaining after payment of liabilities, subject to prior distribution rights of preferred stock then outstanding. The common stock has no preemptive or conversion rights or other subscription rights. There are no redemption or sinking fund provisions applicable to the common stock. All outstanding shares of common stock are fully paid and non-assessable, and shares of common stock to be issued upon the closing of this offering will be fully paid and nonassessable.
As of November 4, 2013, of the 150,000,000 shares of common stock currently authorized, there are approximately 34,949,716 shares of common stock issued and outstanding and approximately an additional 2,089,041 shares reserved for issuance in connection with (i) options outstanding to acquire approximately 1,924,067 shares of common stock, which include (but are not limited to) options issued under our 2000 Stock Incentive Plan and our 2007 Stock Incentive Plan (collectively, the “Option Plans”), (ii) warrants outstanding to acquire approximately 33,000 shares of common stock and (iii) approximately 131,974 shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of our outstanding Series A-2 Preferred Stock.
Certain Anti-takeover Matters
Provisions of our certificate of incorporation and bylaws could make the acquisition of our company through a tender offer, a proxy contest or other means more difficult and could make the removal of incumbent officers and directors more difficult. We expect these provisions to discourage coercive takeover practices and inadequate takeover bids and to encourage persons seeking to acquire control of our company to first negotiate with our board of directors. We believe that the benefits provided by our ability to negotiate with the proponent of an unfriendly or unsolicited proposal outweigh the disadvantages of discouraging these proposals. We believe the negotiation of an unfriendly or unsolicited proposal could result in an improvement of its terms.
Our certificate of incorporation authorizes the issuance of up to 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.0001 per share. Our board of directors has the authority, without the further approval of the stockholders, to issue and determine the rights and preference of any series of preferred stock. Our board of directors could issue one or more series of preferred stock with voting, conversion, dividend, liquidation, or other rights that would adversely affect the voting power and ownership interest of holders of common stock. This authority may have the effect of deterring hostile takeovers, delaying or preventing change in control, and discouraging bids for our common stock at a premium over market price.
Our bylaws establish an advance notice procedure for stockholder proposals to be brought before an annual meeting of our stockholders, including proposed nominations of persons for election to our board of directors. At an annual meeting, stockholders may only consider proposals or nominations specified in the notice of meeting or brought before the meeting by or at the direction of our board of directors. Stockholders may also consider a proposal or nomination by a person who was a stockholder of record on the record date for the meeting, who is entitled to vote at the meeting, and who has given to our corporate secretary timely written notice, in proper form, of his or her intention to bring that business before the meeting. The bylaws do not give our board of directors the power to approve or disapprove stockholder nominations of candidates or proposals regarding other business to be conducted at a special or annual meeting of the stockholders. However, our bylaws may have the effect of precluding the conduct of business at a meeting if the proper procedures are not followed. These provisions may also discourage or deter a potential acquirer from conducting a solicitation of proxies to elect the acquirer’s own slate of directors or otherwise attempting to obtain control of our company.
Under Delaware law, a special meeting of stockholders may be called by the board of directors or by any other person authorized to do so in the certificate of incorporation or the bylaws. Our bylaws authorize the chairman of our board of directors or a majority of our board of directors to call a special meeting of stockholders. However, our certificate of incorporation does

-4-


not prohibit our stockholders to act by written consent. As a result, any action to be effected by our stockholders may be effected at a duly called annual or special meeting of the stockholders.
Anti-takeover Effects of Delaware Law Provisions
Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law contains provisions that may make the acquisition of control of us by means of a tender offer, open market purchase, proxy fight, or otherwise more difficult. In general, Section 203 prohibits a publicly held Delaware corporation from engaging in a “business combination” with an “interested stockholder” for a period of three years after the date of the transaction in which the person became an interested stockholder, unless the business combination is approved in a prescribed manner. Section 203 defines a “business combination” as a merger, asset sale, or other transaction resulting in a financial benefit to the interested stockholder. Section 203 defines an “interested stockholder” as a person who, together with affiliates and associates, owns, or, in some cases, within three years prior, did own, 15% or more of the corporation’s voting stock. Under Section 203, a business combination between us and an interested stockholder is prohibited unless:
our board of directors approved either the business combination or the transaction that resulted in the stockholder becoming an interested stockholder prior to the date the person attained the status;
upon consummation of the transaction that resulted in the stockholder becoming an interested stockholder, the interested stockholder owned at least 85% of our voting stock outstanding at the time the transaction commenced, excluding, for purposes of determining the number of shares outstanding, shares owned by persons who are directors and also officers and issued employee stock plans, under which employee participants do not have the right to determine confidentially whether shares held under the plan will be tendered in a tender or exchange offer; or
the business combination is approved by our board of directors on or subsequent to the date the person became an interested stockholder and authorized at an annual or special meeting of the stockholders by the affirmative vote of the holders of at least 66⅔% of the outstanding voting stock that is not owned by the interested stockholder.
Transfer Agent and Registrar
The transfer agent and registrar for the common stock is American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, New York, New York.
Trading
Our common stock is traded on the NYSE MKT under the symbol “GLOW.”
PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION
We are registering the common stock covered by this prospectus to permit the selling stockholders to conduct public secondary trading of such common stock from time to time after the date of this prospectus. We will not receive any of the proceeds of the sale of the common stock offered by this prospectus. The aggregate proceeds to the selling stockholders from the sale of the common stock will be the purchase price of the common stock less any discounts and commissions. A selling stockholder reserves the right to accept and, together with its agents, to reject, any proposed purchases of common stock to be made directly or through agents.
The common stock offered by this prospectus may be sold or otherwise distributed from time to time:
directly by the selling stockholders and their successors, which include their donees, pledgees or transferees, or their successors-in-interest, or
through underwriters, broker-dealers, or agents, who may receive compensation in the form of discounts, commissions or agent’s commissions from the selling stockholders or the purchasers of the common stock (these discounts, concessions or commissions may be in excess of those customary in the types of transactions involved).

-5-


The selling stockholders and any underwriters, broker-dealers, or agents who participate in the sale or distribution of the common stock may be deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of the Securities Act. The selling stockholders from time to time identified as or affiliated with registered broker-dealers participating in the sale or distribution of the common stock from time to time are deemed to be underwriters with respect to securities sold by them pursuant to this prospectus. As a result, any profits on the sale of the securities by such selling stockholders and any discounts, commissions, or agent’s commissions or concessions received by any such broker-dealer or agents may be deemed to be underwriting discounts and commissions under the Securities Act. Selling stockholders who are deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of Section 2(11) of the Securities Act will be subject to prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act. Underwriters are subject to certain statutory liabilities, including, but not limited to, Sections 11, 12, and 17 of the Securities Act.
The common stock may be sold in one or more transactions at:
fixed prices;
prevailing market prices at the time of sale;
prices related to such prevailing market prices;
varying prices determined at the time of sale; or
otherwise negotiated prices or without cash consideration.
These sales may be effected in one or more transactions:
on any national securities exchange or quotation on which the common stock may be listed or quoted at the time of the sale;
in the over-the-counter market;
in transactions other than on such exchanges or services or in the over-the-counter market;
through the writing of options, whether such options are listed on an options exchange or otherwise;
ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker-dealer solicits purchasers;
block trades in which the broker-dealer will attempt to sell the shares as agent but may position and resell a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction;
sales “at the market” to or through a market maker or into an existing trading market, on an exchange or otherwise, for the shares;
purchases by a broker-dealer as principal and resale by the broker-dealer for its account;
an exchange distribution in accordance with the rules of the applicable exchange;
privately negotiated transactions;
through the settlement of short sales;
broker-dealers may agree with the selling stockholders to sell a specified number of shares at a stipulated price per share;
through dividends or other distributions made by selling stockholders to their respective partners, members, or stockholders;
through any combination of the foregoing; or
any other method permitted pursuant to applicable law.

-6-


These transactions may include block transactions or crosses. Crosses are transactions in which the same broker acts as an agent on both sides of the trade.
In connection with the sales of the common stock, the selling stockholders may enter into hedging transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions which in turn may:
engage in short sales of the common stock in the course of hedging their positions;
sell the common stock short and deliver the common stock to close out short positions;
loan or pledge the common stock to broker-dealers or other financial institutions that in turn may sell the common stock;
enter into option or other transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions that require the delivery to the broker-dealer or other financial institution of the common stock, which the broker-dealer or other financial institution may resell under the prospectus; or
enter into transactions in which a broker-dealer makes purchases as a principal for resale for its own account or through other types of transactions.
The common stock may be offered to the public either through underwriting syndicates represented by one or more managing underwriters or directly by one or more of such firms. The obligations of underwriters or dealers to purchase the common stock offered will be subject to certain conditions precedent and the terms of any agreement entered into with the underwriters. Any public offering price and any discount or concession allowed or reallowed or paid by underwriters or dealers to other dealers may be changed from time to time.
To our knowledge, there are currently no plans, arrangements, or understandings between any selling stockholders and any underwriter, broker-dealer, or agent regarding the sale of the common stock by the selling stockholders.
Our common stock is currently listed on the NYSE MKT under the symbol “GLOW.”
There can be no assurance that any selling stockholders will sell any or all of the common stock under this prospectus. Further, we cannot determine whether any such selling stockholders will transfer, devise, or gift the common stock by other means not described in this prospectus. In addition, any common stock covered by this prospectus that qualify for sale under Rule 144 of the Securities Act may be sold under Rule 144 rather than under this prospectus. The common stock covered by this prospectus may also be sold to non-U.S. persons outside the U.S. in accordance with Regulation S under the Securities Act rather than under this prospectus. The common stock may be sold in some states only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers. In addition, in some states the common stock may not be sold unless it has been registered or qualified for sale or an exemption from registration or qualification is available and complied with.

Item 15.    Indemnification of Directors and Officers
Section 102 of the DGCL permits a corporation to eliminate the personal liability of directors of a corporation to the corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages for a breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except where the director breached his duty of loyalty, failed to act in good faith, engaged in intentional misconduct, knowingly violated a law, authorized the payment of a dividend, approved a stock repurchase in violation of Delaware corporate law, or obtained an improper personal benefit.
Section 145 of the DGCL provides that a Delaware corporation may indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending, or completed action, suit, or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative, or investigative (other than an action by or in the right of the corporation) by reason of the fact that the person is or was a director, officer, employee, or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee, or agent of another corporation or enterprise. The indemnity may include expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines, and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by the person in connection with the action, suit, or proceeding, provided the person acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the corporation’s best interests and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe that his conduct was unlawful. A similar standard of care is applicable in the case of actions by or in the right of the corporation, except that no indemnification may be made in respect of any claim, issue, or matter as to which such person shall have been adjudged to be liable to the corporation unless and only to the extent that the Delaware Court of Chancery or the court in which such action was brought determines that, despite the adjudication of liability but in view of all of the circumstances of the case, the person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for expenses that the Delaware Court of Chancery or other court shall deem proper.
Our certificate of incorporation, as amended, provides that no director shall be personally liable to us or any of our stockholders for monetary damages for a breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except for liability
for any breach of the director’s duty of loyalty to us or our stockholders;
for acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law;
pursuant to Section 174 of the DGCL, which related to unlawful payments or dividends or unlawful stock repurchases or redemptions; or
for any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit.
Our bylaws, as amended, provide that officers and directors shall be indemnified if any such person is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending, or completed action, suit, or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative, or investigative (other than an action by or in the right of the corporation) by reason of the fact that the person is or was a director or officer, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee, or agent of another corporation or enterprise. The indemnity may include expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines, and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by the person in connection with the action, suit, or proceeding, provided the person acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the corporation’s best interests

II-1


and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe that his conduct was unlawful. Our bylaws also provide that we must advance expenses to our directors and officers in connection with their defense.
We maintain a directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policy to insure our directors and officers against liability for actions or omissions occurring in their capacity as a director or officer, subject to certain exclusions and limitations.
Insofar as limitation of, or indemnification for, liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers, or persons controlling us pursuant to the foregoing provisions, we have been informed that in the opinion of the SEC, such limitation or indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act, and therefore, is unenforceable.

Item 17.    Undertakings
(a) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes as follows:
(1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement:
(i) To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933;
(ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) that, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in the volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the SEC pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective registration statement; and
(iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement; provided, however, that paragraphs (a)(1)(i), (a)(1)(ii), and (a)(1)(iii) above do not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are incorporated by reference in the registration statement, or is contained in a form of prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) that is part of the registration statement.

II-3


(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
(3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered that remain unsold at the termination of the offering.
(4) That, for the purpose of determining liability of the registrant under the Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser:
(i) Each prospectus filed by the registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(3) shall be deemed to be part of the registration statement as of the date the filed prospectus was deemed part of and included in the registration statement; and
(ii) Each prospectus required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424(b)(2), (b)(5), or (b)(7) as part of a registration statement in reliance on Rule 430B relating to an offering made pursuant to Rule 415(a)(1)(i), (vii), or (x) for the purpose of providing the information required by Section 10(a) of the Securities Act of 1933 shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of the earlier of the date such form of prospectus is first used after effectiveness or the date of the first contract of sale of securities in the offering described in the prospectus. As provided in Rule 430B, for liability purposes of the issuer and any person that is at that date an underwriter, such date shall be deemed to be a new effective date of the registration statement relating to the securities in the registration statement to which that prospectus relates, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof; provided, however, that no statement made in a registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement or made in a document incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference into the registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement will, as to a purchaser with a time of contract of sale prior to such effective date, supersede or modify any statement that was made in the registration statement or prospectus that was part of the registration statement or made in any such document immediately prior to such effective date.
(5) That, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the registrant’s annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan’s annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that is incorporated by reference in the registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
(b) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers, and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer, or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit, or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer, or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Exchange Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
