<p style="margin:0in;margin-bottom:.0001pt;margin-top:6.0pt;text-indent:.25in;"><font face="times new roman" lang=EN-US style="font-size:10.0pt;">&#160; On October 5, 2012, the Company
announced the approval of a share repurchase program, pursuant to which the
Company is authorized to repurchase up to $2 million worth of its common shares
over the next 12 months. The Company has retained a financial advisor as
manager of the share repurchase program, which will be conducted in accordance
with Rule 10b-18 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. </font></p>

<p style="margin:0in;margin-bottom:.0001pt;margin-top:6.0pt;text-indent:.25in;"><font face="times new roman" lang=EN-US style="font-size:10.0pt;">&#160; The Company expects to
implement this share repurchase program in a manner consistent with market
conditions and the interest of its shareholders. The common shares may be
repurchased on the open market, in privately negotiated transactions, in block
trades or otherwise. The timing and the extent of any purchases will depend
upon market conditions, the trading price of the common shares and other
factors, and subject to the restrictions relating to volume, price and timing
under applicable laws and regulations.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in;margin-bottom:.0001pt;margin-top:6.0pt;text-indent:.25in;"><font face="times new roman" lang=EN-US style="font-size:10.0pt;">&#160; The share repurchase program
will be funded from existing cash on hand and cash generated from operations.
As of September 30, 2012, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of
approximately $66.7 million. The Company currently has approximately 13.8
million shares outstanding. The Company is not obligated to repurchase any
particular amount of shares during any period and may choose to suspend or
discontinue the share repurchase program at any time.</font></p>
