is being furnished to the shareholders of Patriot National Bancorp, Inc., a Connecticut corporation (&#147;we,&#148; &#147;us,&#148; &#147;our,&#148; the &#147;Company&#148; or &#147;Patriot&#148;). We are the bank holding company of Patriot
National Bank (the &#147;Bank&#148;). This Information Statement relates to our resolutions to (a)&nbsp;elect six directors for the coming year, (b)&nbsp;retain KPMG LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for the 2014 fiscal year,
(c)&nbsp;approve a reverse stock split of the outstanding shares of our common stock at a ratio of one-for-ten (1:10)&nbsp;(the &#147;Reverse Stock Split&#148;), and (d)&nbsp;transact any other business which may properly come before the meeting.
These resolutions will be adopted by our Board of Directors prior to the 2014 Annual Meeting of Shareholders in accordance with statutes governing Connecticut corporations (the &#147;Connecticut Law&#148;) and will be presented to an annual meeting
of our shareholders to be held on December&nbsp;16, 2014, as outlined in the Notice of 2014 Annual Meeting of Shareholders (the &#147;Annual Meeting&#148;) that accompanies this Information Statement. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Our majority shareholder, PNBK Holdings LLC (&#147;Holdings&#148;), which owns 86% of our outstanding voting securities, has indicated that it will vote in
favor of these resolutions. Holdings is managed by PNBK Sponsor, LLC (&#147;Sponsor&#148;). Michael A. Carrazza, the Chairman of our Board, is the manager of Sponsor. No other votes are required or necessary to elect directors for the coming year,
to retain KPMG LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for the 2014 fiscal year or to approve the Reverse Stock Split. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The election of
directors, the retention of KPMG LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm and the approval of the Reverse Stock Split are outlined below. </P>

<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">As permitted by the federal securities laws, we are making this Information Statement and the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended
December&nbsp;31, 2013, as amended, available to our shareholders primarily via the Internet instead of mailing printed copies of these materials to each shareholder. On or about November [25], 2014 we intend to mail to our shareholders a Notice of
Internet Availability, or &#147;Notice,&#148; containing instructions on how to access these materials, including the Information Statement and the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December&nbsp;31, 2013, as amended. We intend to
make the Information Statement available to our shareholders on or about November [25], 2014. This Information Statement and the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December&nbsp;31, 2013, as amended, are available for viewing on

common stock, $0.01 par value per share (the &#147;Common Stock&#148;), represented in person or by proxy, shall constitute a quorum at any meeting of shareholders, unless otherwise provided by law. If less than a quorum is represented at a meeting,
a majority of the shares so represented may adjourn the meeting without further notice. At such adjourned meeting at which a quorum shall be present or represented, any business may be transacted which might have been transacted at the meeting as
originally notified. </P>

<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">If a quorum is present, action by the shareholders (i)&nbsp;on the election of directors and the retention of KPMG LLP as our independent registered public
accounting firm is approved if the number of votes cast in favor of the action exceeds the number of votes cast in opposition to the action and (ii)&nbsp;on the Reverse Stock Split is approved if a majority of the outstanding shares of Common Stock
vote in favor of the action. Each outstanding share shall be entitled to one vote on each matter submitted to a vote at a meeting of shareholders. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In the
election of directors, shareholders may cumulate their votes. Cumulative voting allows a shareholder to allocate among the director nominees, as the shareholder sees fit, the total number of votes equal to the number of director positions to be
filled multiplied by the number of shares held by the shareholder. For example, if a shareholder owns 100 shares of stock, and there are six directors to be elected at the Annual Meeting, a shareholder may allocate 600 &#147;for&#148; votes (six
multiplied by 100) among as few or as many of the six nominees to be voted on at the Annual Meeting as the shareholder chooses. Cumulative voting applies only to the election of directors. For all other matters, each share of Common Stock
outstanding as of the close of business on the Record Date (as defined below), is entitled to one vote. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In determining the number of votes cast for or
against a proposal, shares abstaining from voting on a matter (including elections) will (i)&nbsp;not be treated as a vote for or against the proposal on the election of directors and the retention of KPMG LLP as our independent registered public
accounting firm and (ii)&nbsp;be treated as a vote against the Reverse Stock Split. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B><U>Dissenters&#146; Right of Appraisal </U></B></P>

certain information about beneficial ownership of Common Stock of the Company as of the Record Date with respect to: (i)&nbsp;each person, or group of affiliated persons, who is known to the Company to own more than five percent (5%)&nbsp;of Company
Common Stock; (ii)&nbsp;each of the Company&#146;s directors; (iii)&nbsp;each of the Company&#146;s executive officers; and (iv)&nbsp;all of the Company&#146;s directors and executive officers as a group. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Except as otherwise noted, to the knowledge of the Company, all persons listed below have sole voting and dispositive power with respect to all shares of
Common Stock they beneficially own, except to the extent authority is shared by spouses under applicable law. Applicable percentage ownership is based on 39,160,627 shares of Common Stock outstanding. In computing the number of shares of Common
Stock beneficially owned by a person and applicable percentage ownership of that person, we deemed outstanding shares of Common Stock subject to options held by that person that are currently exercisable or exercisable within sixty (60)&nbsp;days of
the Record Date. We did not deem these shares outstanding, however, for the purpose of computing the percentage ownership of any other person. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Unless

<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">We are a controlled company under NASDAQ rules because more than 50% of the voting power for the election of our directors is held by one shareholder. As a
result, we are not required to maintain a majority of independent directors on our Board of Directors, nominating committee or compensation committee. The Board of Directors has determined that the following nominees for election as directors at the
Annual Meeting are independent: Edward N. Constantino, Emile Van den Bol, Michael J. Weinbaum and Raymond B. Smyth. The Board of Directors has also determined that the Audit Committee is comprised entirely of independent directors within the meaning
of applicable laws and regulations, the listing standards of the NASDAQ stock market and our corporate guidelines set forth in the Audit Committee Charter. </P>

examines the independence of the directors annually. For a director to be considered independent, the Board of Directors must determine that the director does not have any relationship with us or any of our affiliates, either directly or as a
partner, shareholder or officer of an organization that has such a relationship which, in the opinion of the Board of Directors, would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director. </P>

Board, our principal executive officer and Chairman of the Board are currently separate individuals. Our Board of Directors believes that having a separate Chairman of the Board is appropriate given our business characteristics. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The Board of Directors&#146; primary responsibility is to seek to maximize long-term shareholder value. The Board of Directors selects our management,
monitors management and Company performance, and provides advice and counsel to management. Among other things, the Board of Directors regularly reviews our business strategy and approves our budget. In fulfilling the Board of Directors&#146;

<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The functions of the Audit Committee include (i)&nbsp;reviewing and recommending policies regarding internal audit and credit review, (ii)&nbsp;establishing
and implementing policies to comply with applicable regulations, (iii)&nbsp;causing suitable audits to be made by auditors engaged by the Audit Committee on our behalf, and (iv)&nbsp;pre-approving all audit services and permitted non-audit services
provided by the auditors. The Audit Committee or its Chairman also discusses with the independent auditors the auditors&#146; review of our unaudited quarterly financial statements. The Audit Committee operates pursuant to a written charter, as
amended by the Board of Directors on October&nbsp;23, 2012. Shareholders may request a copy of the Audit Committee Charter, without charge, by contacting Christina L. Maier, Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, Patriot National
Bancorp, Inc., 900 Bedford Street, Stamford, Connecticut 06901, (203)&nbsp;251-8210. The members of the Audit Committee are Messrs.&nbsp;Constantino (chairman), Smyth and Van den Bol each of whom is an independent director as defined by SEC and
NASDAQ rules. The Board has determined that Messrs.&nbsp;Constantino and Smyth have the professional experience necessary to qualify as Audit Committee financial experts under SEC rules. During 2013, the Audit Committee met nine times. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The Compensation Committee determines executive compensation. The members of the Compensation Committee are Messrs.&nbsp;Constantino (chairman) and Van den
Bol. During 2013, the Compensation Committee met four times. In performing its duties, the Compensation Committee may engage consultants to assist it in determining the amount or form of executive and director compensation. During 2013, the
Compensation Committee did not engage any consultants. The Compensation Committee consults with our executive officers in determining executive and director compensation. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The Executive Committee exercises, if needed and when the Board of Directors is not in session, all powers of the Board of Directors that may lawfully be
delegated. The members of the Executive Committee are Messrs.&nbsp;Carrazza (chairman), Constantino, Neilson and Van den Bol. During 2013, the Executive Committee did not meet. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The principal function of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee is to consider and recommend to the full Board of Directors nominees for directors
of Patriot and the Bank. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee is also responsible for reporting and recommending from time to time to the Board of Directors matters relative to corporate governance. The members of the Nominating and
Corporate Governance Committee are Messrs.&nbsp;Van den Bol (chairman), Carrazza, Constantino and Weinbaum. During 2013, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee did not meet. </P>

<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The process of reviewing and making recommendations for nominations and appointments to the Board of Directors is the responsibility of the Nominating and
Corporate Governance Committee. Our directors have a critical role in guiding our strategic direction and in overseeing management. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee will consider candidates for the Board of Directors based upon
several criteria, including their broad-based business and professional skills and experiences, concern for the long-term interests of shareholders, personal integrity and judgment. Candidates should have reputations, both personal and professional,
consistent with our image and reputation. Directors must have time available to devote to Board activities and to enhance their knowledge of the banking industry. Accordingly, the Board of Directors seeks to attract and retain highly qualified
directors who have sufficient time to attend to their substantial duties and responsibilities for us, and who are expected to contribute to an effective Board of Directors. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee utilizes the following process for identifying and evaluating nominees to the Board of Directors. In the
case of incumbent directors, each year the Board of Directors informally reviews each director&#146;s overall service to us during the term, including the number of meetings attended, level of participation and performance. In the case of new
director candidates, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee may solicit from existing directors the names of potential candidates who meet the criteria above; the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee may discuss candidates
suggested by our shareholders; and, if deemed appropriate by the Board of Directors, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee may engage a professional search firm. To date, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee has not engaged
a professional search firm to identify or evaluate potential nominees, but it retains the right to do so in the future, if necessary. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee meets to discuss and consider these candidates&#146;
qualifications and then chooses new candidates by majority vote. Each of the nominees for director listed above was recommended by the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee in 2013. </P>

of the Board not fewer than 14&nbsp;days and not more than 50&nbsp;days before the Annual Meeting. Shareholders may obtain a copy of our certificate of incorporation and by-laws by writing to our Corporate Secretary, 900 Bedford Street, Stamford,
Connecticut 06901. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">To be considered, the shareholder&#146;s nomination must contain: (i)&nbsp;the name and address of each proposed nominee;
(ii)&nbsp;the principal occupation of each proposed nominee; (iii)&nbsp;the total number of shares of our capital stock that will be voted for each proposed nominee; (iv)&nbsp;the name and residence address of the notifying shareholder; and
(v)&nbsp;the number of our shares of capital stock owned by the notifying shareholder. In addition, the nomination should include any other information relating to the proposed nominee required to be included in a proxy statement filed pursuant to
the proxy rules of the SEC and the nominee&#146;s written consent to serve as a director if elected. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B><U>Communications with the Board </U></B></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Interested parties, including shareholders, wishing to communicate directly with the Board of Directors or any independent directors should send written
communications to Michael A. Carrazza, Chairman of the Board, Patriot National Bancorp, Inc., 900 Bedford Street, Stamford, Connecticut 06901. Each communication will be reviewed by Mr.&nbsp;Carrazza who will make appropriate recommendations to the
Board of Directors, which may include discussing the matter raised with the Board of Directors as a whole, with only the independent directors, and/or with other members of the senior management team. We believe that this procedure allows the Board
of Directors to be responsive to shareholder communications in a timely and appropriate manner. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B><U>Code of Conduct </U></B></P>

to abandon the Reverse Stock Split if it determines, in its sole discretion, that the Reverse Stock Split is no longer in our best interests and the best interests of our stockholders. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Ten shares of existing Common Stock will be combined into one share of Common Stock. The amendment to the Certificate of Incorporation to effect the Reverse

<P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B>Background and Reasons for the Reverse Stock Split; Potential Consequences of the Reverse Stock Split </B></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The primary purpose for the Reverse Stock Split is to increase the market price of our Common Stock to make our Common Stock more attractive to a broader range
of institutional and other investors. In addition to increasing the market price of our Common Stock, the Reverse Stock Split may facilitate trading as discussed below. Accordingly, for these and other reasons discussed below, we believe that
effecting the Reverse Stock Split is in our and our stockholders&#146; best interests. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">We believe that the Reverse Stock Split will enhance our ability
to maintain our listing on the NASDAQ Capital Market (&#147;NASDAQ&#148;). One of the NASDAQ listing requirements is that the bid price of our Common Stock is at a specified minimum per share. Reducing the number of outstanding shares of our Common
Stock should, absent other factors, increase the per share market price of our Common Stock, although we cannot provide any assurance that our minimum bid price would, following the Reverse Stock Split, remain over the minimum bid price requirement
of NASDAQ. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Additionally, we believe that the Reverse Stock Split will make our Common Stock more attractive to a broader range of institutional and other
investors, as we have been advised that the current market price of our Common Stock may affect its acceptability to certain institutional investors, professional investors and other members of the investing public. Many brokerage houses and
institutional investors have internal policies and practices that either prohibit them from investing in low-priced stocks or tend to discourage individual brokers from recommending low-priced stocks to their customers. In addition, some of those
policies and practices may function to make the processing of trades in low-priced stocks economically unattractive to brokers. Moreover, because brokers&#146; commissions on low-priced stocks generally represent a higher percentage of the stock
price than commissions on higher-priced stocks, the current average price per share of Common Stock can result in individual stockholders paying transaction costs representing a higher percentage of their total share value than would be the case if
the share price were substantially higher. We believe that the Reverse Stock Split will make our Common Stock a more attractive and cost-effective investment for many investors, which will enhance the liquidity of the holders of our Common Stock.
</P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Reducing the number of outstanding shares of our Common Stock through the Reverse Stock Split is intended, absent other factors, to increase the per
share market price of our Common Stock. However, other factors, such as our financial results, market conditions and the market perception of our business may adversely affect the market price of our Common Stock. As a result, there can be no
assurance that the Reverse Stock Split, if completed, will result in the intended benefits described above, that the market price of our Common Stock will increase (proportionately to the reduction in the number of shares of our Common Stock after
the Reverse Stock Split or otherwise) following the Reverse Stock Split or that the market price of our Common Stock will not decrease in the future. Accordingly, the total market capitalization of our Common Stock after the Reverse Stock Split
could be lower or higher than the total market capitalization before the Reverse Stock Split. </P>

 <P STYLE="margin-top:0pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B>Authorized Shares of Stock </B></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The Reverse Stock Split would affect all issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock and outstanding rights to acquire Common Stock. We will not change the
number of shares of Common Stock currently authorized. However, upon the effectiveness of the Reverse Stock Split, the number of authorized shares of Common Stock that are not issued or outstanding would increase due to the reduction in the number
of shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding as a result of the Reverse Stock Split. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">As of November [25], 2014, we had (i)&nbsp;100,000,000
authorized shares of Common Stock, of which 39,160,627 shares of Common Stock were issued and outstanding, 2,202,100 shares were unissued but reserved for issuance under the 2012 Plan, and the remaining 58,625,568 shares were authorized but unissued
and not reserved for issuance, and (ii)&nbsp;1,000,000 shares of authorized preferred stock, $0.01 par value per share, of which no shares are issued and outstanding and the remaining 1,000,000 shares were authorized but unissued and not reserved
for issuance. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">We will reserve for issuance any authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock that would be made available as a result of the proposed
Reverse Stock Split. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">We do not have any plans, arrangements or understandings for the remaining portion of the authorized but unissued shares that will
be available following the Reverse Stock Split. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Because the number of authorized shares of Common Stock would not be reduced proportionately, the Reverse
Stock Split would increase the ability of the Board of Directors to issue authorized and unissued shares without further stockholder action. The development of our business may require substantial additional capital, and our continued operations may
depend on our ability to raise additional funding, which could occur through fundraising transactions that involve issuance of shares of Common Stock or securities convertible into or exercisable for Common Stock; depending on several factors,
including the number of shares that are issued or issuable in any such transaction, such shares could include authorized but unissued shares that would become available as a result of the Reverse Stock Split. Authorized but unissued shares of Common
Stock are available for future issuance as may be determined by the Board of Directors without further action by our stockholders, unless stockholder approval is required by applicable law or securities exchange listing requirements in connection
with a particular transaction. These additional shares may be issued in the future for a variety of corporate purposes including, but not limited to, raising additional capital, strategic partnering arrangements, equity incentive plans, acquisitions
of assets or businesses, stockholder right plans, and stock splits or stock dividends. Except for a stock split or stock dividend, future issuances of Common Stock will dilute the voting power and ownership of our existing stockholders and,
depending on the amount of consideration received in connection with the issuance, could also reduce stockholders&#146; equity on a per share basis. If the Board of Directors authorizes the issuance of additional shares after the Reverse Stock
Split, the dilution to the ownership interest of our existing stockholders may be greater than would occur had the Reverse Stock Split not been effected. Many stock issuances do not require stockholder approval, and the Board of Directors generally
seeks approval of our stockholders in connection with a proposed issuance only if required at that time. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B>Procedure for Implementing the Reverse Stock
Split </B></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The Reverse Stock Split will become effective upon the filing (the &#147;Split Effective Time&#148;) of a certificate of amendment to the
Certificate of Incorporation with the Secretary of State of the State of Connecticut. The exact timing of the filing of the certificate of amendment that will effect the Reverse Stock Split will be determined by the Board of Directors based on its
evaluation as to when such action will be the most advantageous to us and our stockholders. In addition, the Board of Directors reserves the right to elect not to proceed with the Reverse Stock Split if, at any time prior to filing the amendment to
the Certificate of Incorporation, the Board of Directors, in its sole discretion, determines that it is no longer in our best interests and the best interests of our stockholders to proceed with the Reverse Stock Split. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B>Effect of the Reverse Stock Split on Holders of Outstanding Common Stock </B></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Ten shares of existing common stock will be combined into one new share of common stock. Based on 39,160,627 shares of common stock issued and outstanding as
of November [25], 2014, immediately following the Reverse Stock Split the Company would have approximately 3,916,062 shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding (without giving effect to the cashing out of fractional shares) </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The Reverse Stock Split will affect all holders of our Common Stock uniformly and will not affect any stockholder&#146;s percentage ownership interest in us,
except to the extent the Reverse Stock Split would result in fractional shares, as described below. In addition, the Reverse Stock Split will not affect any stockholder&#146;s proportionate voting power, except to the extent the Reverse Stock Split
would result in fractional shares, as described below. </P>

 <P STYLE="margin-top:0pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The Reverse Stock Split may result in some stockholders owning &#147;odd lots&#148; of less than 100 shares of
common stock. Odd lot shares may be more difficult to sell, and brokerage commissions and other costs of transactions in odd lots are generally somewhat higher than the costs of transactions in &#147;round lots&#148; of even multiples of 100 shares.
</P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">After the Split Effective Time, our Common Stock will have new Committee on Uniform Securities Identification Procedures (CUSIP) numbers, which are
numbers used to identify our equity securities, and stock certificates with the older CUSIP numbers will need to be exchanged for stock certificates with the new CUSIP numbers by following the procedures described below. After the Reverse Stock
Split, we will continue to be subject to the periodic reporting and other requirements of the Exchange Act. We expect that our Common Stock will continue to be quoted on NASDAQ under the symbol &#147;PNBK&#148; subject to any decision of the Board
of Directors to list our securities on a different stock exchange and approval by such exchange of the listing. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B>Payment for Fractional Shares </B></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">With respect to shares held by our common stockholders, whether shares are held in street name or directly, fractional shares will not be issued as a result of
the Reverse Stock Split. Instead, fractional shares will be cashed out. For example, if a stockholder holds 505 shares on a pre-split basis, 500 shares would be combined and converted into 50 shares on a post-split basis and the stockholder would
receive cash for five pre-split shares. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The amount of cash to be paid for fractional shares will be equal to the product obtained by multiplying: </P>

name. However, these banks, brokers, custodians or other nominees may have different procedures than registered stockholders for processing the Reverse Stock Split. Stockholders who hold shares of our common stock with a bank, broker, custodian or

or individual resident of the United States, a corporation organized in or under the laws of the United States or any state thereof or the District of Columbia or otherwise subject to U.S. federal income taxation on a net income basis in respect of
our Common Stock (a &#147;U.S. holder&#148;). A trust may also be a U.S. holder if (1)&nbsp;a U.S. court is able to exercise primary supervision over administration of such trust and one or more U.S. persons have the authority to control all
substantial decisions of the trust or (2)&nbsp;it has a valid election in place to be treated as a U.S. person. An estate whose income is subject to U.S. federal income taxation regardless of its source may also be a U.S. holder. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">This summary does not address all of the tax consequences that may be relevant to any particular stockholder, including tax considerations that arise from
rules of general application to all taxpayers or to certain classes of taxpayers or that are generally assumed to be known by stockholders. This summary also does not address the tax consequences to (i)&nbsp;persons that may be subject to special
treatment under U.S. federal income tax law, such as banks, insurance companies, thrift institutions, regulated investment companies, real estate investment trusts, tax-exempt organizations, U.S. expatriates, persons subject to the alternative
minimum tax, traders in securities that elect to mark to market and dealers in securities or currencies, (ii)&nbsp;persons that hold our Common Stock as part of a position in a &#147;straddle&#148; or as part of a &#147;hedging,&#148;
&#147;conversion&#148; or other integrated investment transaction for federal income tax purposes, or (iii)&nbsp;persons that do not hold our Common Stock as &#147;capital assets&#148; (generally, property held for investment). If a partnership (or
other entity classified as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes) is the beneficial owner of our common stock, the U.S. federal income tax treatment of a partner in the partnership will generally depend on the status of the partner and
the activities of the partnership. Partnerships that hold our Common Stock, and partners in such partnerships, should consult their own tax advisors regarding the U.S. federal income tax consequences of the Reverse Stock Split. </P>
