price of the Common Stock for the five (5) trading days immediately preceding

Conversion. In addition, the Registrant agreed to deem the 10,000 shares of
Common Stock issued to the Subscriber as additional consideration for purchasing
the Note, as shares issued pursuant to Regulation S, as of the date of the
Subscription Agreement. No commission was paid to a third-party with respect to
the parties execution of the Subscription Agreement.
