the eleven stockholders of Dalton Kent an aggregate of 1.45 million common
shares having a fair market value at the time of issuance of $14.00 per share or
an aggregate value of $20.3 million. The consideration was the product of arms
length negotiations and was based on the prior operating history of Dalton Kent
and its prospects when integrated into the operating and business model of the
Company. The transaction is subject to National Association of Securities
Dealers ("NASD") approval as a change in control.
