Business Organizations Code (&#147;TBOC&#148;), effective January&nbsp;1, 2010, states
that the Company must conform its Articles of Incorporation to the TBOC when it
files an amendment to its Articles of Incorporation.&#160; The Company&#146;s Articles of Incorporation were
drafted in accordance with a predecessor statute, the Texas Business
Corporation Act, and contain citations to such statute which must be removed
upon filing an amendment.&#160; Additionally,
certain vocabulary in the Company&#146;s Articles of Incorporation must be amended
to conform to the TBOC, including a change in the name of the &#147;Articles of
Incorporation&#148; to the &#147;Certificate of Formation.&#148;</font></p>

the Company must file an amendment to its Articles of Incorporation in order to
incorporate recently amended Certificates of Designation, Preferences, Rights
and Limitations (the &#147;Certificates of Designation&#148;) of the Series&nbsp;III Class&nbsp;B
Convertible Preferred Stock (&#147;Series&nbsp;III Class&nbsp;B&#148;) and Series&nbsp;IV
Class&nbsp;B Convertible Preferred Stock (&#147;Series&nbsp;IV Class&nbsp;B&#148;).&#160; Prior to the date the TBOC became applicable
to the Company, the Company also incorporated an amended Certificate of
Designation of Series&nbsp;V Class&nbsp;B Convertible Preferred Stock into its
Articles of Incorporation.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Therefore, in order to comply with Section&nbsp;402.005(a)(3)&nbsp;of
the TBOC, the Company must make non-substantive amendments to its Articles of
Incorporation to conform certain citations and vocabulary to the TBOC when it
amends its Articles of Incorporation to add the amended Certificates of
Designation.&#160; Other minor amendments are
also proposed to clarify certain language and to reflect that the document, as
restated, is not being filed concurrently with the formation of the
corporation.&#160; Additionally, the Series&nbsp;A
Convertible Preferred Stock Certificate of Designation is deleted because there
are no shares of such stock currently outstanding and none will be issued in
the future.&#160; None of the amendments will
substantively affect the governance of the Company.&#160; Proposed</font></p>

last fiscal year, the Board of Directors met six times.&#160; No director attended fewer than 75% of the
aggregate of meetings of the Board of Directors and the Committees on which he
or she served in 2009.&#160; The Board of
Directors has established standing Audit, Compensation and Benefits, and
Nominating Committees.&#160; Each Committee
has a written charter, which is available on our website, <u>www.vanishpoint.com</u>.&#160; An executive committee which had never met
was dissolved on March&nbsp;24, 2009.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">We have a policy encouraging Board members&#146;

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:4.5pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The Company&#146;s leadership structure combines the
roles of the Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer (&#147;CEO&#148;).&#160; We believe it is in the shareholders&#146; best
interests for Thomas J. Shaw to serve in this dual role as CEO and
Chairman.&#160; This structure fosters an
important unity of leadership between the Board and the Company and enables the
Board to organize its functions and conduct its business in the most efficient
and effective manner.&#160; As founder of the Company
and primary inventor of our products, Thomas J. Shaw has a unique understanding
of our operations and the monopolistic environment in which we operate, which
understanding is necessary to perform the dual role of CEO and Chairman.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-align:justify;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">We have no lead independent director due to the
relatively small size of the Board and due to the fact that the independent
directors currently carry out their responsibilities effectively.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-align:justify;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The primary responsibility for the identification,
assessment, and management of the various risks that we face belongs with
Management.&#160; The Board oversees these
risks.&#160; For instance, at every meeting,
the Board reviews the principal factors influencing our operating results,
including the competitive environment and ongoing litigation, and discusses
with our executive officers the major events, activities, and changes affecting
the Company.&#160; The oversight of risks also
occurs at the committee level.&#160; For
instance, pursuant to its charter, the Audit Committee is charged with
reviewing and discussing financial risk exposures with Management and the
measures Management has taken to monitor and control such exposures.&#160; Our Chairman, because of his dual role as
CEO, is able to ensure that risks facing the Company are appropriately brought
to the Board and/or its committees for their review.</font></p>

Committee established in accordance with Section&nbsp;3(a)(58)(A)&nbsp;of the
Exchange Act.&#160; The Audit Committee
represents and assists the Board of Directors in discharging its
responsibilities relating to the accounting, reporting, and financial practices
and legal compliance of the Company.&#160; The
Audit Committee has general responsibility for oversight of the accounting and
financial processes of the Company, including oversight of: (1)&nbsp;the
integrity of the Company&#146;s financial statements and its financial reporting and
disclosure practices, (2)&nbsp;the Company&#146;s compliance with legal and
regulatory requirements, and (3)&nbsp;the qualification and independence of the
Company&#146;s auditors and the performance of the annual audit and interim reviews
of the Company&#146;s financial statements by the independent auditors.&#160; The Audit Committee also provides an open
avenue of communication among the independent auditors, financial and senior
management, and the Board of Directors.&#160;
The Audit Committee met a total of eight times in 2009.<b>&#160; </b>The members of the
Audit Committee are independent as defined by the listing standards of the NYSE
Amex.&#160; The Audit Committee consists of
Marco Laterza, Marwan Saker, and Clarence Zierhut.&#160; Marco Laterza currently serves as its

The Audit Committee has discussed with the independent auditors, CF&nbsp;&amp;
Co., L.L.P. (&#147;CF&nbsp;&amp; Co.&#148;), the matters required to be discussed by the
Statement on Auditing Standards No.&nbsp;61, as amended (AICPA, <i>Professional Standards</i>, Vol. 1, AU section 380), as adopted
by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board in Rule&nbsp;3200T.&#160; The Audit Committee has received the written
disclosures and the letter from CF&nbsp;&amp; Co. required by applicable
requirements of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board regarding the
independent accountant&#146;s communications with the audit committee concerning
independence, and has discussed with the independent accountant the independent
accountant&#146;s independence.&#160; Based on the
review and discussions with CF&nbsp;&amp; Co., the Audit Committee recommended
to the Board of Directors that the audited financial statements be included in
the Company&#146;s annual report on Form&nbsp;10-K for the year ended 2009 for
filing with the Commission.</font></p>

selection criterion that identifies desirable skills and experience for
prospective Board members, including those properly nominated by shareholders,
and addresses the issues of diversity and background.&#160; The Nominating Committee has no formal policy
with regard to the consideration of diversity in identifying nominees for
director.&#160; The Nominating Committee and
Board broadly define diversity to include diversity of professional experience
and viewpoint, as well as diversity of race, gender, nationality, and
ethnicity.&#160; The Board, with the
assistance of the Nominating Committee, selects potential new Board members
using the criteria and priorities established from time to time based upon the

participants in their field(s)&nbsp;of specialty, familiar at the time of their
appointment with our business, willing to devote the time and attention
necessary to deepen and refine their understanding of the Company and the issues
facing it, and must have an understanding of the demands and responsibilities
of service on a public company board of directors.&#160; The Nominating Committee will also consider
such qualities as independence from the Company.&#160; Each nominee will be considered both on his
or her individual merits and in relation to existing or other potential members
of the Board, with a view to establishing a well-rounded, diverse,
knowledgeable, and experienced Board.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">We choose to pay a significant component of our
compensation in base salary due to the fact that our financial performance is
constrained by the monopolistic activities of Becton Dickinson and Company (&#147;BD&#148;).&#160; We have been blocked from access to the
market by exclusive marketing practices engaged in by BD who dominates the
market.&#160; We believe that its monopolistic
business practices continue despite: (i)&nbsp;its paying $100 million to settle
a prior lawsuit with us in 2004 for anticompetitive practices, business
disparagement, and tortious interference and (ii)&nbsp;the fact that a final
judgment was entered in May&nbsp;2010 finding that all three patents asserted
by us against BD are valid and infringed by BD.&#160;
Until such time as we believe that we have access to the market, we
believe that it is appropriate to weigh our Compensation Program heavily in
favor of base salaries rather than in incentive compensation.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Executive compensation remains the same until there
is a review of such compensation by the Compensation and Benefits
Committee.&#160; Compensation, other than that
of the Chief Executive Officer, has generally not been reviewed annually.&#160; Under the terms of Mr.&nbsp;Shaw&#146;s employment
agreement, his compensation is reviewed annually.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The base salary for each of our executive officers
is subjectively determined primarily on the basis of the following factors:
experience, individual performance, contribution to our performance, level of
responsibility, duties and functions, salary levels in effect for comparable
positions within and without our industry, and internal base salary
comparability considerations.&#160; However,
salaries can also be affected by our long-term needs.</font></p>

may be adjusted based upon the factors discussed in the previous sentence, as
well as upon individual performance during the previous fiscal year, changes in
the duties, responsibilities and functions of the executive officer, and
general changes in the compensation peer group in which we compete for
executive talent.&#160; The relative weight
given to each of these factors in the Compensation and Benefits Committee&#146;s
recommendation differs from individual to individual, as the Compensation and
Benefits Committee deems appropriate.</font></p>

certain salary level had their salaries reduced by 10%.&#160; This included all executive officers.&#160; However, Mr.&nbsp;Shaw&#146;s Employment Agreement
provides his salary is automatically increased by the percentage increase in
the consumer price index (&#147;CPI&#148;) from the previous year.&#160; The Compensation and Benefits Committee
decided to increase Mr.&nbsp;Shaw&#146;s salary (which had also been previously cut
by 10%) by $11,254.04 for 2010.</font></p>

time to time and may do so in the future.&#160;
We did not issue any stock options in 2007.&#160; We issued new options under the 2008 Stock
Option Plan to purchase an aggregate of 962,683 shares of Common Stock in
exchange for the cancellation of tendered options pursuant to an Exchange Offer
in 2008.&#160; We issued incentive stock
options (&#147;ISOs&#148;) for the purchase of 269,956 shares of Common Stock and Non
Qualified Stock Options (&#147;NQSOs&#148;) for the purchase of 229,494 shares of Common
Stock to executive officers and Directors under the 2008 Stock Option Plan in July&nbsp;2009.&#160; Options are generally granted to regular
full-time employees and officers except to our CEO.</font></p>

granted the first option to Thomas J. Shaw, our CEO, which option grant was
approved by the shareholders later that year.&#160;
The option was granted outside of any plan and was for the purchase of
3,000,000 shares of Common Stock.&#160; The
committee took into consideration, among other things, the following benefits
received and to be received by the Company in consideration for the grant of
the option:</font></p>

is crucial for the success of the Company in breaking into the market through
its several ongoing lawsuits.&#160; Mr.&nbsp;Shaw&#146;s

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Once the dollar amount of options to be granted is
approved by the Compensation and Benefits Committee, Management begins
determining the aggregate number of shares underlying options that can be
granted under such approval (based on the fair value of an option for the
purchase of one underlying share).&#160;
Factors included in the determination of the value of an option grant
for the purchase of one share include current market price of the Company&#146;s
stock, the proposed exercise price, the proposed expiration date, the
volatility of the Company&#146;s stock, and the risk free rate.&#160; We may retain an independent outside
consultant to determine such value.&#160; In
the past we have utilized the Black-Scholes model as well as the binomial
model, but we may use other methods in the future as more appropriate methods
are developed.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Management provides the Compensation and Benefits
Committee with a proposal regarding option grants to executive officers.&#160; If the recommendation is acceptable, the
committee grants the options.&#160; If the
committee feels changes are merited, it grants options on its own terms.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-align:justify;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">With regard to many past grants, after the aggregate
number of shares underlying the options to be granted was determined, we
allocated the options to our various departments using a factor based on their
annual compensation times their performance rating.&#160; The individual employee&#146;s allocation factor
was the numerator of a fraction.&#160; The
denominator was the department&#146;s sum of all factors (annual compensation times
performance ratings of all the eligible employees).&#160; The resulting fraction was multiplied by the
stock options to be awarded to determine the employee&#146;s individual portion of
the aggregate approved options.&#160; Future
grants may be based on the value of contributions to the Company and not
necessarily pursuant to any formula.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-align:justify;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The allocation was, from time to time, further
reviewed by each department&#146;s management if they believed certain employees
were not awarded an appropriate number of options, which Management would
consider.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-align:justify;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Each stock option grant to employees allows the
employee to acquire shares of Common Stock at a fixed price per share (never
less than the closing stock price of the Common Stock on the date of grant) for
a fixed period (usually ten years).&#160; With
regard to grants prior to 2009, each option generally became exercisable after
three years, contingent upon the employee&#146;s continued employment with us.&#160; The exceptions include options issued to
Officers and Directors pursuant to the Exchange Offer, which vested immediately
for non-employee Directors and after one year for employees (including employee
Directors) and options granted in 2009 which vested in one year for executive
officers and immediately for non-employee Directors.&#160; Accordingly, generally stock option grants
will provide a return to the employee only if the employee remains employed by
us during the vesting period, and then only if the market price of the
underlying Common Stock appreciates.&#160;
Future grants may vest over a shorter or longer period.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Our Compensation Program is intended to accomplish
the following objectives: 1) attract and retain highly talented and productive
executive officers; 2) provide incentives and rewards for superior performance
by the executive officers; and 3) align the interests of executive officers
with the interests of our stockholders.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-align:justify;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">We ensure, through
periodic retention of compensation consulting experts to provide a benchmark
analysis of industry compensation, that overall compensation is sufficient to
attract and retain highly talented and productive executive officers.&#160; We pay the bulk of our compensation in the
form of cash compensation due to the fact that competing in an anti-competitive
environment means that results will not always be commensurate with
performance.&#160; We believe that the
performance of our executives has been outstanding.&#160; We believe this is especially true given the
anti-competitive environment in which we operate.&#160; Bonuses are granted from time to time (the
last time in 2003) to recognize extraordinary performance and/or extraordinary
job requirements.&#160; We believe this
approach and weighting of compensation elements is necessary to retain our executive
talent due to the environment in which we operate.</font></p>

executive officers for long-term performance and to align the interests of our
employees with that of the shareholders.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">All of our long-term compensation consists of
non-cash compensation in the form of stock options.&#160; We believe that the granting of stock options
incentivizes executives to maximize our long-term strengths as well as our
stock price.&#160; However, because we are
operating in a monopolistic environment and our stock price has little
relationship with our performance, the most significant component of compensation
is base salary and not stock options.&#160;
Management is incented to maximize shareholder value and will be
rewarded if they do so.&#160; However, a
significant base salary enables us to retain this competent Management despite
the current inability to provide valuable equity incentives.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Generally, option awards to executive officers are
granted by the Compensation and Benefits Committee and for others are granted
at the discretion of the Board after recommendation of the Compensation and
Benefits Committee or on the committee&#146;s own initiative.&#160; No awards are granted if the Compensation and
Benefits Committee does not support a recommendation.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Unfortunately, our stock price does not always react
as expected to our achievements.&#160;
Accordingly, at times options have been granted to aid in retaining
competent and experienced executives without regard to the then current stock
price.&#160; However, such options always have
exercise prices that are at or above fair market value on the date of grant.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-align:justify;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">In addition, there is no relationship between the
date of grant of options and our possession of material non-public information
(i.e. we grant options without regard to whether or not we are in possession of
material non-public information as we usually are in possession of such
information).&#160; Furthermore, it is our
policy with regard to options that (although the options could be exercised)
the underlying shares could not be sold into the market while the executive was
in possession of material non-public information under our insider trading
policy.&#160; Accordingly, we believe that
there is minimal risk of the executive profiting from such material non-public
information.</font></p>

are taken into account when considering the advisability of increasing base
salaries or granting cash bonuses.&#160; However,
no specific items of corporate performance are taken into account in setting
executive compensation due to the fact that we compete in a monopolistic
environment and, therefore, significant achievement or performance is not
always correlated with corporate results.&#160;
At such times that any of these factors make it inadvisable to increase
salaries or grant bonuses as advisable, then consideration is given to
increasing option awards taking into account the value of prior option awards.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Executive compensation is

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">We implemented an employee savings and retirement
plan (the &#147;401(k)&nbsp;Plan&#148;) in 2005 that is intended to be a tax-qualified
plan covering substantially all employees.&#160;
Under the terms of the 401(k)&nbsp;Plan, employees may elect to
contribute up to 88% of their compensation, or the statutory prescribed limit,
if less.&#160; We may, at our discretion,
match employee contributions.&#160; We made
matching contributions of approximately $76,643 and $122,000 in 2009 and 2008,
respectively.&#160; $16,930 and $21,095 of
these matching contributions were to executive officers in 2009 and 2008,
respectively.&#160; We suspended matching
contributions beginning August&nbsp;1, 2009 until further notice.</font></p>

our compensation expense is a reasonable percentage of revenues overall.&#160; We have not set specific performance criteria
for the award of bonuses.&#160; Salaries are
awarded based on skill, experience, and our overall revenues.&#160; Non-cash awards to employees are made
periodically in the form of stock options, which we believe align the employees&#146;
interests with those of stockholders.&#160; We
review our compensation policies and practices as they relate to risk
management objectives if compensation amounts are materially amended or if our
risk profile changes.&#160; No changes to our
compensation policies and practices have been implemented as a result of
changes to our risk profile.</font></p>

to the sale or issuance of Common Stock Equivalents which are convertible into
or exchangeable for Common Stock without further consider, the per share
consideration will be determined by dividing the maximum number of shares of
Common Stock issuable with respect to such Common Stock Equivalents (as set
forth in the instrument relating thereto without regard to any provisions
contained therein for subsequent adjustment of such number) into the aggregate
consideration receivable by the Corporation upon the sale or issuance of such
Common Stock Equivalents. With respect to the issuance of other Common Stock
Equivalents, the per share consideration will be determined by dividing the
maximum number of shares of Common Stock issuable with respect to such Common
Stock Equivalents into the total aggregate consideration received by the
Corporation upon the sale or issuance of such Common Stock Equivalents plus the
minimum aggregate amount of additional consideration received by the
Corporation upon the conversion or exercise of such Common Stock Equivalents.
In connection with the sale or issuance of Common Stock and/or Common Stock
Equivalents for non-cash consideration, the amount of consideration will be the
fair market value of such consideration as determined in good faith by the
Board of Directors of the Corporation.</font></strike></p>

securities (whether debt or equity securities) or rights issued by the
Corporation convertible into or entitling the holder thereof to receive shares
of, or securities convertible into, Common Stock. The number of shares of &#147;Common

earnings or earned surplus and dividends payable in shares of Common Stock or
in securities convertible into or exchangeable for shares of Common Stock or
rights or warrants to purchase Common Stock or securities convertible into or
exchangeable for shares of Common Stock or any other securities issued by the
Corporation), the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the record
date for such dividend or distribution shall be proportionately adjusted so
that the Holder shall be entitled to receive the number of shares of Common
Stock into which such shares of Common Stock or Preferred Stock was convertible
immediately prior to such record date multiplied by a fraction, the numerator
of which is the fair market value of a share of Common Stock on such record
date and the denominator of which is such per share fair market value of a
share of Common Stock on such record date less the fair market value on such
record date of the securities or other property which are distributed as a
dividend or other distribution. The term &#147;fair market value&#148; of a share of
Common Stock or of any other security or other type of property on any date
means (A)&nbsp;in the case of Common Stock or any other security (I)&nbsp;if
the principal trading market for such Common Stock of other security is an
exchange or the NASDAQ national market on such date, the closing price on such
exchange or the NASDAQ national market on such date, provided, if trading of
such Common Stock or other security is listed on any consolidated tape, the
fair market value shall be the closing price set forth on such consolidated
tape on such date, or (II)&nbsp;if the principal market for such Common Stock
or other security is the over-the-counter market (other than the NASDAQ
national market) the mean between the closing bid and asked prices on such date
as set forth by NASDAQ or (B)&nbsp;in the case of Common Stock or any other
security for which the fair market value cannot be determined pursuant to
clause (A)&nbsp;above or of any other security or type of property, fair market

pursuant to which all outstanding shares of the Class&nbsp;B Preferred Stock
are simultaneously redeemed (or offered to be so redeemed) or pursuant to which
the outstanding shares of the Class&nbsp;B Preferred Stock are redeemed on a
pro rata basis (or offered to be so redeemed), or (B)&nbsp;by conversion of

any other stock that ranks junior to the Class&nbsp;B Preferred Stock in
respect of distributions upon the Liquidation of the Corporation, the holder of

shares of Class&nbsp;B Preferred Stock the full amounts (including all
dividends accrued and unpaid) to which they shall be entitled by reason of such
Liquidation of the Corporation, then there shall be paid ratably to the holders

fifth calendar day before the date fixed for such redemption; or (ii)&nbsp;the
date fixed for such exchange, provided that the Corporation has set aside funds

a price equal to one share of Common Stock for each $5.00 of Class&nbsp;B
Preferred Stock or, in case an adjustment of such rate has taken place pursuant

Conversion Rate as last adjusted (such rate or adjusted rate, shall be
expressed as the number of shares of Common Stock to be acquired upon
conversion of one share of Class&nbsp;B Preferred Stock, and shall be referred

such shares of Class&nbsp;B Preferred Stock were so surrendered or to such
Holder&#146;s nominee or nominees, certificates for the number of shares of Common
Stock to which the Holder shall be entitled. The certificates of Common Stock
of the Corporation issued upon conversion shall bear such legends as may be
required by state or federal laws. Such conversion shall be deemed to have been
effective immediately prior to the close of business on the date on which the
Corporation shall have received both such written notice and the properly
surrendered certificates for shares of Class&nbsp;B Preferred Stock to be
converted (the &#147;Conversion Date&#148;), and at such time the rights of the Holder
shall cease and the person or persons entitled to receive the shares of Common
Stock issuable upon the conversion of such shares of Class&nbsp;B Preferred
Stock shall be deemed to be, and shall be treated for all purposes as, the
record Holder or Holders of such Common Stock on the Conversion Date. The
Corporation shall not be required to convert, and no surrender of shares of Class&nbsp;B
Preferred Stock or written notice of conversion with respect thereto shall be
effected for that purpose, while the stock transfer books of the Corporation
are closed for any reasonable business purpose for any reasonable period of
time, but shall be required to convert upon the proper surrender of shares of Class&nbsp;B
Preferred Stock for conversion immediately upon the reopening of such books.
During the period in which the stock transfer books of the Corporation are
closed, the Corporation may neither declare a dividend, declare a record date

shall at all times during which shares of Class&nbsp;B Preferred Stock may be
converted into Common Stock as provided in this paragraph (e), reserve and keep
available, out of any Common Stock held as treasury stock or out of its
authorized and unissued Common Stock, or both, solely for the purpose of
delivery upon conversion of the shares of Class&nbsp;B Preferred Stock as
herein provided, such number of shares of Common Stock as shall then be
sufficient to effect the conversion of all shares of Class&nbsp;B Preferred
Stock from time to time outstanding, and shall take such action as may from

Conversion Rate provided in subdivision (a)&nbsp;of this paragraph (6), in
respect of Class&nbsp;B Preferred Stock, shall be subject to adjustments from
time to time as follows:</font></p>

Class&nbsp;B Preferred Stock shall be outstanding, in case the Corporation
shall subdivide the outstanding shares of Common Stock into a greater number of
shares of Common Stock or combine the outstanding shares of Common Stock into a
smaller number of shares of Common Stock, or issue, by reclassification of its
shares of Common Stock, any shares of the Corporation, the Conversion Rate in
effect immediately prior thereto shall be adjusted so that the Holder shall be
entitled to receive the number of shares which it would have owned or been
entitled to receive after the happening of any of the events described above,
had such shares of Class&nbsp;B Preferred Stock been converted immediately
prior to the happening of such event, such adjustment to become effective
immediately after the opening of business on the day following the day upon
which such subdivision or combination or reclassification, as the case may be,
becomes effective.</font></p>

Corporation shall be consolidated with, or merge into, any other corporation,
and the Corporation does not survive, proper provisions shall be made as a part
of the terms of such consolidation or merger, whereby the Holder shall
thereafter be entitled, upon exercise of such Holder&#146;s conversion rights, to
receive the kind and amount of shares of stock or other securities of the
Corporation resulting from such consolidation or merger, or such other
property, as the Holder would have received if such conversion rights were
exercised immediately prior to the effectiveness of such merger or

shares of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents (as defined herein) which
does not provide for the payment of any consideration upon the issuance,
conversion or exercise thereof, without a corresponding dividend or other
distribution to the Holder, based upon the number of shares of Common Stock
into which the Class&nbsp;B Preferred Stock is convertible, then and in each
such event the Conversion Rate then in effect will be increased as of the time
of such issuance or, in the event such a record date shall have been fixed, as
of the close of business on such record date, by multiplying such Conversion
Rate by a fraction:</font></p>

which will be the total number of shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding
immediately prior to the time of such issuance or the close of business on such
record date plus the number of shares of Common Stock issuable in payment of

shall mean the maximum number of shares of Common Stock issuable with respect
thereto, as set forth in the instrument relative thereto without regard to any
provision for subsequent adjustment); and</font></p>

Corporation sells or issues any Common Stock, or sells or issues Common Stock
Equivalents which can be converted into Common Stock at a per share
consideration (as defined below in this subparagraph (v)) less than the
Stipulated Price then in effect, then the Holder shall be entitled to purchase
from the Corporation in cash (for the same per share consideration at which
such Common Stock was issued or the per share price at which a share of Common
Stock is acquirable upon exercise or conversion of Common Stock Equivalents)
that additional number of shares of Common Stock which, when added to the
number of shares of Common Stock acquirable by the Holder upon conversion of
any shares of Class&nbsp;B Preferred Stock outstanding and held by such Holder
immediately before such issue or sale (the &#147;Acquirable Shares&#148;), will equal a
percentage of the number of shares of Common Stock Deemed Outstanding (as
defined herein) immediately after such sale or issuance that is the same as the
percentage of the number of shares of Common Stock Deemed Outstanding immediately

with respect to the sale or issuance of Common Stock will be the price per
share received by the Corporation, prior to the payment of any expenses,
commissions, discounts and other applicable costs. With respect to the sale or

issuable with respect to such Common Stock Equivalents (as set forth in the
instrument relating thereto without regard to any provisions contained therein

receivable by the Corporation upon the sale or issuance of such Common Stock

the per share consideration will be determined by dividing the maximum number
of shares of Common Stock issuable with respect to such Common Stock
Equivalents into the total aggregate consideration received by the Corporation
upon the sale or issuance of such Common Stock Equivalents plus the minimum
aggregate amount of additional consideration received by the Corporation upon
the conversion or exercise of such Common Stock Equivalents. In connection with
the sale or issuance of Common Stock and/or Common Stock Equivalents for
non-cash consideration, the amount of consideration will be the fair market
value of such consideration as determined in good faith by the Board of

consideration received by the Corporation upon the conversion or exercise of

Corporation, for a period ending six months after the last share of Series&nbsp;IV
Class&nbsp;B Preferred Stock is redeemed, retired, converted or otherwise no
longer outstanding, will give written notice to the Holder not less than 20
days in advance of the initial filing of any registration statement under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended (other than a registration statement
pertaining to securities issuable pursuant to employee stock option, stock
purchase, or similar plans or a registration statement pertaining to securities
issuable in connection with the acquisition of a business, whether through
merger, consolidation, acquisition of assets, or exchange of securities),
covering any Common Stock or other securities of the Corporation, and will
afford the Holder the opportunity to have included in such registration all or
such part of the shares of Common Stock acquired upon conversion of Series&nbsp;IV
Class&nbsp;B Preferred Stock, as may be designated by written notice to the
Corporation not later than 10 days following receipt of such notice from the
Corporation. The Corporation shall be entitled to exclude the shares of Common
Stock held by the Holder from any one, but not more than one, such registration
if the Corporation in its sole discretion decides that the inclusion of such
shares will materially interfere with the orderly sale and distribution of the
securities being offered under such registration statement by the Corporation.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Corporation shall not be entitled to exclude
the shares of Common Stock held by the Holder if shares of other shareholders
are being included in any such registration statement and, in such
circumstances, the Holder shall be entitled to include the shares of Common
Stock held by them on a pro rata basis in the proportion that the number of
shares of Common Stock held by the Holder bears to the shares of Common Stock
held by all other shareholders, including shares in such registration
statement. The Holder shall not be entitled to include shares in more than two
registration statements pursuant to the provisions of this subdivision (a)&nbsp;of
paragraph 7, and all rights of the Holder under this subdivision (a)&nbsp;of
paragraph 7 shall terminate after the Holder has included shares of Common
Stock in two registration statements pursuant to this subdivision (a)&nbsp;of
paragraph 7.</font></p>

Stock held by them on a pro-rata basis in the proportion that the number of
shares of Common Stock held by the Holder bears to the shares of Common Stock
held by all other shareholders, including shares in such registration
statement. The Holder shall not be entitled to include shares in more than two

attention necessary to deepen and refine their understanding of the Company and
the issues facing it, and must have an understanding of the demands and
responsibilities of service on a public company board of directors. The
Committee will also consider such qualities as independence from the Company,
as the definition of &#147;independence&#148; may be revised from time to time. Each
