        <footnote id="F1">The reporting person invested $75,000 and was issued a Senior Secured Convertible Promissory Note by the Issuer, which note bears interest at 10% per annum (which increases to 12% per annum commencing one year following the issuance date), matures on March 31, 2009, and is convertible into common stock at a conversion rate of $0.50 per share.  Interest is payable quarterly, which may be paid by the Issuer with additional senior secured convertible promissory notes. In connection with the reporting person's investment, the Issuer issued the reporting person a Series A-2 warrant to acquire 50% of the shares that would be issuable upon conversion of the reporting person's Senior Secured Convertible Promissory Note.  No fee, commission or other compensation of any kind was paid by the Issuer to the reporting person in connection with the reporting person's investment in the Senior Secured Convertible Promissory Note and the Series A-2 Warrant.</footnote>
