from the Company.
The Shareholder is not and has never been associated with the
Company except in his capacity as an investor. The Shareholder currently owns
218,000 shares of Common Stock of the Company.
Sales of Shares will be effected for the account of the
Shareholder though customary brokerage channels at prevailing market prices,
either through broker-dealers acting as principals, who may then resell the
Shares. The Shareholder and broker-dealers acting as principals who may resell
the Shares may be deemed "underwriters", as that term is defined in the

waiting period and other requirements of Rule 144 thereunder.
DESCRIPTION OF COMMON STOCK

the election of directors, without provisions for cumulative voting, and on all
other matters. Thus, holders of more than 50% of the shares voting for the
election of directors can elect all the directors if they choose to do so.

and director, will be in a position to elect the entire Board of Directors of
the Company which in turn appoints the Company's officers. The Common Stock is
not redeemable and has no conversion or preemptive rights. All of the Shares of
