The Reporting Persons originally made an investment in the Issuer in August 2007 using the working capital of CCM Master Qualified Fund, Ltd.  This investment was subsequently exchanged for alternate securities on several occasions.  The Reporting Persons acquired the bulk of the Shares reported in this filing as a result of the most recent exchange transaction.  The following summarizes the exchange and related transactions entered into by the Reporting Persons and the Issuer.

Original Investment:

The Reporting Persons originally invested $5 million in the Issuer on August 3, 2007 to acquire (i) 5 million Special Warrants convertible into 4,000,000 Shares of the Issuer at a conversion rate of $1.25 per share and (ii) additional Warrants to purchase 1,000,000 Shares at an exercise price of $1.40 per share, as further described in the Issuer's Form 8-K filed on August 9, 2007.

First Exchange:

On August 29, 2008, the Reporting Persons entered into an Exchange Agreement with respect to the Special Warrants pursuant to which, among other things, the Reporting Persons exchanged the Special Warrants for a Senior Secured Note in the original principal amount equal to the original purchase price of the Special Warrant (i.e. $5,000,000).  In addition, the Reporting Persons exchanged the additional Warrants held by them for a new Warrant exercisable for the same number of Shares at an exercise price of $.25 per share.  These transactions are further described in the Issuer's Form 8-K filed on September 5, 2008.

From August 2009 through October 2009 the Reporting Persons purchased additional Senior Secured Notes (in aggregate, $4.75 million in face value) and Warrants (950,000) from other investors in private transactions.

Second Exchange:

On December 11, 2009, the Reporting Persons entered into a second Exchange Agreement with the issuer with respect to the Senior Secured Note pursuant to which, among other things, that Senior Secured Note was exchanged  for (i) a replacement Senior Secured Non-Convertible Note, (ii) a Senior Secured Convertible Note that was convertible into the Issuer's Shares at a conversion price of $.25, and (iii) a Senior Secured Convertible Note that was convertible into the Issuer's Shares at a conversion price of $.10.  The aggregate principal amount of all of the Notes issued pursuant to the second Exchange Agreement was equal to the amount of principal and accrued interest outstanding under the Senior Secured Note that was exchanged.  These transactions are further described in the Issuer's Form 8-K filed on December 16, 2009.
