The warrant is exercisable at any time at the option of the holder after the Company increases the number of its authorized common shares, which is expected to occur during the second calendar quarter of 2009.  Each share of Series D Preferred Stock is convertible in whole or in part, at the option of the holder at any time after the date of issuance and without the payment of any additional consideration, into 100,000 shares of fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock.</footnote>
