common stock is listed on The Nasdaq Capital Market. However, under current New York Stock Exchange (&ldquo;NYSE&rdquo;) rules and interpretations
that govern broker non-votes, if you are a beneficial owner and do not instruct your broker, bank, or other agent how to vote your shares,
the question of whether your broker or nominee will still be able to vote your shares depends on whether the NYSE deems the particular
proposal to be a &ldquo;routine&rdquo; matter. Brokers and nominees can use their discretion to vote &ldquo;uninstructed&rdquo; shares
with respect to matters that are considered to be &ldquo;routine&rdquo;, but not with respect to &ldquo;non-routine&rdquo; matters. Under
the rules and interpretations of the NYSE, &ldquo;non-routine&rdquo; matters are matters that may substantially affect the rights or
privileges of stockholders, such as mergers, stockholder proposals, elections of directors (even if not contested), executive compensation
(including any advisory stockholder votes on executive compensation), and certain corporate governance proposals, even if management-supported.
Accordingly, your broker or nominee may not vote your shares on Proposals 1 and 3 without your instructions, but may vote your shares
on Proposal 2 even in the absence of your instructions. Because NYSE rules apply to all brokers that are members of the NYSE, the foregoing
rules apply to the Annual Meeting even though our common stock is listed on The Nasdaq Capital Market.</FONT></P>

carry on business at the Annual Meeting, we must have a quorum. A quorum is present when 33-1/3% of the shares entitled to vote, as of
the Record Date, are represented in person or by proxy. Virtual attendance at the Annual Meeting constitutes presence in person for purposes
of a quorum at the meeting. Thus, holders representing at least 749,764 shares must be represented in person or by proxy to have a quorum.
Your shares will be counted towards the quorum only if you submit a valid proxy (or one is submitted on your behalf by your broker, bank
or other nominee) or if you vote at the Annual Meeting. Abstentions and broker non-votes will be counted towards the quorum requirement.
Shares owned by us are not considered outstanding or considered to be present at the Annual Meeting. If there is not a quorum at the
Annual Meeting, our stockholders may adjourn the meeting.</FONT></P>

in identifying nominees for director. However, the Board does consider the knowledge, experience, integrity and judgment of potential
candidates for nominations to the Board. The Board will consider persons recommended by stockholders for nomination for election as directors.
The Board will consider and evaluate a director candidate recommended by a stockholder in the same manner as a Board-recommended nominee.
Stockholders wishing to recommend director candidates must follow the prior notice requirements as described herein.</FONT></P>

of Directors as requested. The Audit Committee discusses risk management with the Company&rsquo;s management and independent public accountants
as set forth in the Audit Committee&rsquo;s charter. The Compensation Committee reviews the compensation programs of the Company to make
sure economic incentives are tied to the long-term interests of the stockholders. The Company believes that innovation and the building
of long-term stockholder value are impossible without taking risks. The Company recognizes that imprudent acceptance of risk and the
failure to identify risks could be detrimental to stockholder value. The executive officers of the Company are responsible for assessing
these risks on a day-to-day basis and for how to best identify, manage and mitigate significant risks that the Company may face.</FONT></P>

have adopted a related person transaction policy that sets forth our procedures for the identification, review, consideration and approval

or relationship, or any series of similar transactions, arrangements or relationships, in which we and any related person are, were or
will be participants in which the amount involved exceeds $120,000. Transactions involving compensation for services provided to us as
an employee or director are not covered by this policy. A related person is any executive officer, director or beneficial owner of more

such persons.</FONT></P>

the policy, if a transaction has been identified as a related person transaction, including any transaction that was not a related person

consummation, our management must present information regarding the related person transaction to our audit committee, or, if audit committee
approval would be inappropriate, to another independent body of our Board of Directors, for review, consideration and approval or ratification.
The presentation must include a description of, among other things, the material facts, the interests, direct and indirect, of the related
persons, the benefits to us of the transaction and whether the transaction is on terms that are comparable to the terms available to
or from, as the case may be, an unrelated third party or to or from employees generally. Under the policy, we will collect information
that we deem reasonably necessary from each director, executive officer and, to the extent feasible, significant stockholder to enable
us to identify any existing or potential related-person transactions and to effectuate the terms of the policy. In addition, under our
code of business conduct and ethics, our employees and directors will have an affirmative responsibility to disclose any transaction
or relationship that reasonably could be expected to give rise to a conflict of interest. In considering related person transactions,
our audit committee, or other independent body of our Board of Directors, will take into account the relevant available facts and circumstances
