Corporation (the &#147;Company&#148;) intends to meet with holders of its 12% Senior Secured Notes due 2010 (the &#147;Notes&#148;) to seek consent to a new credit facility with a third party lender, which facility would replace and increase the
credit limit of its Existing Credit Facility (defined below). On November&nbsp;12, 2008 the Company executed a commitment letter with Burdale Capital Finance, Inc. (&#147;Burdale&#148;), an indirect U.S. subsidiary of the Bank of Ireland, and,
shortly thereafter, launched a consent solicitation to the holders of the Company&#146;s Senior Secured Notes Due 2010 to obtain their consent for the Trustee of the Notes to enter into a Fifth Supplemental Indenture and revised Intercreditor
Agreement to permit us to close on the new revolving credit facility. Following feedback from the bondholders, on January&nbsp;26, 2009, the Company and Burdale entered into an amended and restated commitment letter with respect to a new $17 million
secured revolving credit facility to be provided by Burdale, which the Company hopes to consummate in the next two weeks subject to Noteholder approval. No assurance can be given that such approval will be obtained<B>. </B> </FONT></P> <P

is party to a Credit Agreement with Wells Fargo Foothill, Inc. (&#147;WFF&#148;), dated December&nbsp;22, 2006, as amended (the &#147;Existing Credit Facility&#148;). Under the Waiver and Eleventh Amendment of such Credit Agreement dated
May&nbsp;19, 2008, the Company agreed to seek a commitment letter from a third party lender to provide financing to the Company in an amount sufficient to prepay obligations to WFF under the Existing Credit Facility. The Company has already paid
fees of $400,000 since August 2008 for failing to meet certain timetables to obtain such replacement financing, and may incur additional fees in the future. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT
FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The Company has $6.6 million in loans and $2.7 million in letters of credit outstanding, and no additional borrowing availability, under the Existing Credit Facility. The Company is required to have a special reserve
against available borrowing starting at $1,000,000 and rising by $25,000 each week commencing on June&nbsp;30, 2008 through November&nbsp;30, 2008, by $37,500 per week from December&nbsp;1, 2008 to February&nbsp;28, 2009, by $50,000 per week from
March&nbsp;1, 2009 to May&nbsp;31, 2009, and $62,500 per week from June&nbsp;1, 2009 to December&nbsp;31, 2009 or until the Existing Credit Facility is paid in full. In addition, Foothill increased the reserve by an additional $362,500 this week
over and above the reserve amounts specified in the Eleventh Amendment. The lack of borrowing capacity, the special reserve and fees described above place significant strain on the Company&#146;s liquidity position, and make it difficult to
withstand economic downturns and competitive pressures. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B>Replacement Financing </B></FONT></P> <P
STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The Company has received the Commitment Letter from Burdale as described above, which the Company believes to be beneficial to the Company and the holders
of the Notes (the &#147;Noteholders&#148;). The Commitment Letter is subject to numerous conditions including, without limitation, satisfaction of certain financial covenants and final documentation. The Company and Burdale have agreed to certain
financial covenants which reflect our current internal revenue forecasts as a result of the current recession as well as our projected offsetting cost savings. Projected EBITDA for calendar 2009 is $20 million based on a revenue forecast of $300
million which is driven by: (1)&nbsp;increased volume from the healthcare industry (which represents 30% of total revenue) and (2)&nbsp;growth opportunities in store replenishment for the retail industry, and (3)&nbsp;the United States Postal
Service WorkShare program including in-bound and out-bound package volumes. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">One of the material remaining conditions to the Burdale
financing as outlined in the Commitment Letter is the requirement for the Company to obtain the consent of holders of a requisite percentage of its outstanding Notes to various aspects of the financing under the Commitment Letter, including the
amount of such financing </FONT>

<FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">(currently contemplated to be a maximum of $17 million). Another condition of the Commitment Letter is that the trustee for the Noteholders enters into a new
intercreditor and subordination agreement on behalf of the Noteholders, to replace the existing Intercreditor Agreement, dated as of December&nbsp;22, 2006, with Wells Fargo Foothill, Inc. The terms of the new intercreditor and subordination
agreement are less favorable to the Noteholders in some respects than the existing terms. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">At this time, the Company is soliciting the
Noteholders for their consent to the transactions contemplated by the Commitment Letter, including a Fifth Supplemental Indenture and a new Intercreditor Agreement. No assurance can be given that the Company will obtain the Noteholders consent
required to effectuate the New Credit Facility, the Fifth Supplemental Indenture and the new Intercreditor Agreement, or that the Company will otherwise satisfy the conditions imposed by the Commitment Letter for the Burdale financing. Without
Noteholders consent, we will not be able to consummate the Burdale financing. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B>Global Alliance </B></FONT></P> <P
STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">As reported previously, the Company is working to develop a global alliance of first-tier domestic delivery companies in a number of countries, with the
Company as the anchor company in the United States. The global alliance being developed would launch a worldwide delivery service, utilize the Company&#146;s state of the art technology throughout the supply chain for customers of alliance members,
and leverage customer relationships of each alliance member to drive business to the alliance partners, thereby increasing revenues for all alliance members. The proposed terms of the global alliance call for an investment by each prospective
alliance member, structured in a manner that may help the Company reduce its financial leverage. At this time, several prospective alliance members from Europe and Asia are conducting due diligence evaluations and the Company has been in negotiation
with these and other prospective partners in various countries around the world toward the goal of achieving an alliance. While these negotiations appear to be advancing, no agreements have been reached, and no assurances can be given that any
alliance arrangements will ever be consummated or what the structure or terms of such an arrangement would be or whether the alliance would operate successfully if agreement could be reached. </FONT></P> <P
