Board believes that without the proposed amendment, there is an increasing danger that the Company will not be able to obtain a quorum

Due to the size and how dispersed the Company&rsquo;s stockholder base is, it has become increasingly more difficult to obtain the current
quorum as contained in the Bylaws at stockholder meetings, and as a result the Company&rsquo;s ability to conduct business has become
impaired. Without stockholder consent, the Company may not be able to, among other things, alter or amend its stock option plans, conduct
certain types of mergers and acquisitions, or raise capital in certain types of transactions. The Board believes that the proposed
amendment will increase the likelihood that the Company will be able to obtain a quorum.</FONT></P>
