The fully subscribed offering resulted in the issuance of 538,676 additional shares of common stock and gross proceeds to the Company of approximately $3.9 million, before deducting fees and expenses.</FONT></P>

<P style="MARGIN-TOP: 0pt; MARGIN-BOTTOM: 12pt; TEXT-ALIGN: left"><FONT size=2>Based on preliminary calculations, 426,259 shares (of which 118,886 are guaranteed delivery) were subscribed for in the basic subscription rights portion of the rights offering, representing approximately 79% of the total available subscription. The demand for shares in the oversubscription portion of the rights offering was approximately 225,952 shares (of which 104,915 are guaranteed delivery), exceeding the approximately 112,417 shares remaining available for oversubscription. Thus, the number of shares each oversubscribing rightsholder will receive is subject to proration in accordance with the rights offering materials.</FONT></P>

<P style="MARGIN-TOP: 0pt; MARGIN-BOTTOM: 12pt; TEXT-ALIGN: left"><FONT size=2>The Company will deliver to subscribing rightsholders certificates representing the shares of Company common stock purchased in the rights offering as soon as practicable after all pro rata allocations and adjustments have been completed. However, the Company will not be able to begin calculations for any oversubscription pro rata allocations and adjustments until three days after the expiration time of the rights offering, which is the latest date for rightsholders to deliver the rights exercise notice according to the guaranteed delivery procedures.</FONT></P>

<P style="MARGIN-TOP: 0pt; MARGIN-BOTTOM: 12pt; TEXT-ALIGN: left"><FONT size=2>Rightsholders who exercised their oversubscription rights and are allocated less than all of the shares for which they wished to subscribe will receive their excess payment by mail, without interest or deduction, as soon as practicable after all pro rata allocations and adjustments have been completed.</FONT></P>

<P style="MARGIN-TOP: 0pt; MARGIN-BOTTOM: 12pt; TEXT-ALIGN: left"><FONT size=2>Following consummation of the rights offering, the Company will have 2,154,702 shares of common stock outstanding.</FONT></P>
