The 5,202,658 shares of Common Stock for which the Reporting Person has sole voting and dispositive power represent approximately 16.5% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company. The aggregate percentages of outstanding shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Reporting Person are based upon the aggregate of 31,623,856 outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company as reported in the Company's Quarterly Report on Form 10-QSB for the quarter ended September 30, 2005.

The Reporting Person does not have or share dispositive power with respect to the shares of Common Stock transferred to Weiss or Wunderlich. Under the definition of "beneficial ownership" as set forth in Rule 13d-3 of the Exchange Act, the Reporting Person may be deemed to be the beneficial owner of the 1,307,342 shares transferred to Weiss and Wunderlich because the Reporting Person has been granted the sole voting power with respect to such shares. The Reporting Person disclaims beneficial ownership of the 1,307,342 shares of Common Stock transferred to Weiss and Wunderlich.

Each irrevocable proxy was coupled with an interest and gives the Reporting Person the sole power to exercise all voting rights of the stockholders with respect to such shares (including, without limitation, the power to execute and deliver written consents), at every annual, special or adjourned meeting of the stockholders of the Company and in every written consent in lieu of such meeting or otherwise act with respect to such shares as fully, to the same extent and with the same effect as the stockholders might or could do under any applicable laws or regulations governing the rights and powers of stockholders of a Delaware corporation until December 31, 2006. As of January 6, 2006, the irrevocable proxies with respect to 442,658 of these shares have been terminated and leaving the Reporting Person with irrevocable proxies covering the remaining 1,307,342 shares. Except as otherwise noted, there are no contracts, arrangements, understandings or relationships (legal or otherwise) between the Reporting Person and any other person with respect to any securities of the Company, including but not limited to transfer or voting of any of the securities, finder's fees, joint ventures, loan or option arrangements, puts or calls, guarantees of profits, division of profits or loss, or the giving or withholding of proxies.
