    <remarks>In connection with the Company's public offering of its common stock which closed on July 25, 2008, Mr. Morgan purchased 3,000 shares at $4.25 a share (the &quot;Shares&quot;). Shortly thereafter, 2,500 of the Shares were mistakenly sold by Mr. Morgan's broker. Pursuant to Section 16(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, Mr. Morgan initiated a wire transfer on August 25, 2008 to disgorge all of the profits to the Company which were inadvertently gained by the sale of the Shares. The wire transfer was completed August 27, 2008, and the Company was fully paid.</remarks>
