<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Since October&nbsp;16, 2007, the members of the Compensation Committee
have been Messrs.&nbsp;McInnes, Gardner, <u>and</u> Flynn, and Ms.&nbsp;Hurtt.&nbsp;
Prior to the formation of the <u>Compensation</u> Committee, the Company&#146;s
compensation policy and annual compensation applicable to the Company&#146;s executive
officers was performed by the Board of Directors.&nbsp; The Compensation
Committee has the responsibility for establishing and implementing the Company&#146;s
overall executive compensation philosophy.&nbsp; Throughout this proxy
statement, the individuals who served as the Company&#146;s Chief Executive Officer <u>and</u>
Vice President and Chief Financial Officer during 2007, included in the Summary
Compensation Table, are referred to as the &#147;named executive officers.&#148;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="font-size:10.0pt;margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><u><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The primary objectives of our compensation policy are to build
shareholder value and recognize the contributions each executive makes to the
Company&#146;s success.&#160; In setting
compensation levels</font></u>,
the Compensation Committee has established the following compensation philosophy
and objectives for the Company&#146;s officers:</p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="font-size:10.0pt;margin:0in 0in .0001pt .5in;text-indent:-.25in;"><font size="2" face="Symbol" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&#183;</font><font size="1" style="font-size:3.0pt;">&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160; </font><b>Align
the interests of executives, including the Company&#146;s executive officers, with
those of the shareholders.&#160; </b>The Compensation Committee believes it is
appropriate to tie a portion of executive compensation to the value of the
Common Stock in order to more closely align the interests of executive officers
with the interests of shareholders.&#160; The
Compensation Committee also believes that executives should have a meaningful
ownership interest in the Company and has established and regularly reviews
executive stock ownership.</p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt .5in;text-indent:-.25in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman">&nbsp;</font></p>

a significant portion of pay that is performance-based.&#160; </b>The Company expects superior performance.&#160; The Company&#146;s executive compensation programs
are designed to reward executives based on performance.&#160; The Compensation Committee believes that
compensation paid to executives should closely align <u>their performance with</u><i>  </i>the performance of the Company on both a short-term and
long-term basis.</p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt .5in;text-indent:-.25in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman">&nbsp;</font></p>

are designed to attract, retain and motivate highly qualified executives
critical to achieving the Company&#146;s strategic objectives and building
shareholder value.</p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt .5in;text-indent:-.25in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The
Compensation Committee reviews the Company&#146;s compensation philosophy and
objectives each year to determine if revisions are necessary in light of market
conditions, the Company&#146;s strategic goals, or other relevant factors. The
Company&#146;s Chief Executive Officer, who is also a member of the Board, does not
serve as a member of the <u>Compensation</u> Committee<u>, but does</u>
participate in setting executive compensation other than his own.&nbsp; The
Compensation Committee reviews the individual performance of each executive
officer and the financial performance of the Company.&nbsp; The Compensation
Committee also takes into account salary levels, bonus plans, stock incentive
plans, and other compensation packages made available to executive officers of
companies of similar size and nature.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The
Compensation Committee uses a variety of compensation elements to reach its
compensation objectives, including current salary, bonus opportunity and long
term equity-based incentives, all of which are discussed in detail below.&nbsp;
Specifically, the Compensation Committee believes that executive compensation
should include the following three components:</font></p>

Company utilizes stock related plans including options and stock grants as
long-term equity-based incentives to foster a long-term view of what is in the
best interests of the Company and its shareholders by better aligning the
interests of the executives with those of the shareholders.</p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The
Compensation Committee reviews and approves annual compensation for senior
executive officers, consisting of base salary and bonus (discussed below), on
an annual basis.&nbsp; The Compensation Committee may request additional
information and analysis and ultimately determines in its discretion whether to
approve any recommended changes in compensation.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The
Company pays its executive officers a base salary to remain competitive in the
market.&nbsp; The base salaries are less performance-based than the annual cash
bonuses and long-term equity-based incentives.&nbsp; During 2007, the salaries
of certain named executive officers were increased as follows: $31,539 in Mr.&nbsp;Whitener&#146;s
salary to $206,539; $39,793 in Mr.&nbsp;Winn&#146;s salary to $153,314 and $31,845
in Mr.&nbsp;Uselton&#146;s salary to $110,451.&nbsp; These salary increases were
largely reflective of the <u>Compensation</u> Committee&#146;s perception of
individual performance, competitiveness of salary in the marketplace and
inflation adjustments.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">In
order to provide incentives for future annual performance, the Company believes
that a meaningful portion of certain executive officers&#146; and other key employees&#146;
compensation should be in the form of a cash incentive bonus.&nbsp; Cash
incentive bonus payments are discretionary and are based primarily on the
executive officer&#146;s contribution to the Company&#146;s profitability over the
applicable performance measurement periods. The Company believes that
profitability is the most useful measure of management&#146;s effectiveness in
creating value for the shareholders of the Company. The Company&#146;s policy is to
set aside in a bonus pool a portion of its pre-tax profit as determined by the
Company&#146;s Chief Executive Officer and approved by the Board.&nbsp; No specific
formula is used in making such bonus determinations to the individuals eligible
to participate in the bonus pool, but senior management<b>  </b><u>recommends
to the Compensation Committee the allocation of the bonus pool based on each
individual&#146;s contribution to the Company&#146;s profitability during the year.&#160; In measuring each employee&#146;s contribution to
the Company&#146;s profitability, the Compensation Committee relies on personal
qualitative factors (such as effective leadership and communication) rather
than quantitative performance goals of the Company (such as specific revenue or
earnings targets).</u></font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Messrs.&nbsp;Winn
and Uselton are the two named executive officers who are eligible for annual
cash bonuses under the Company&#146;s bonus plan.&nbsp; In December&nbsp;of 2007, Messrs.&nbsp;Winn
and Uselton received cash bonuses of $30,000 and $18,000, respectively.&nbsp;
These bonuses were paid out of the bonus pool based on the Company&#146;s 2007
performance.&nbsp; In December&nbsp;2006, Messrs.&nbsp;Winn and Uselton, were
paid cash bonuses of $30,000 and $18,000, respectively.&nbsp; These bonuses
were paid out of the bonus pool based on the Company&#146;s 2006 performance. <b>&nbsp;</b>The bonuses received by Mr.&nbsp;Whitener
are covered by his employment agreement.&nbsp; See &#147;Executive Compensation &#151;
