The shares of Common Stock will be issued to the reporting person upon the expiration of the rights offering.

The shares were purchased upon exercise of subscription rights issued pro rata to holders of the issuer's common stock (the "Common Stock") as of the close of business on June 13, 2012 (the "Record Date"), to purchase 0.342 shares of Common Stock for each one share of Common Stock owned as of the close of business on the Record Date at a subscription price of $0.33 per full share under the basic subscription privilege of the issuer's rights offering.

Subject to certain rights and restrictions, beginning on this date, options vest in three equal annual installments. Each share of deferred common stock represents a right to receive one share of common stock. The deferred common stock becomes payable upon the reporting person's termination of service as a director of the Company. Pursuant to such plan, the reporting person elected to defer receipt of such shares and receive a cumulative total of 20,030 shares of deferred common stock which will all be accounted for under the Company's Non-Employee Director Deferred Compensation Plan. The stock appreciation right becomes payable upon the reporting person's termination of service as a director of the Company. 2,000 were issued 4/8/2009 at a conversion price of $0.90, 2,000 were issued 7/1/2009 at a conversion price of $1.05, 2,000 were issued 10/1/2009 at a conversion price of $1.18, 2,000 were issued 1/4/2010 at a conversion price of $0.84, 2,000 were issued 4/1/2010 at a conversion price of $1.85, 2,000 were issued 7/1/2010 at a conversion price of $1.10, and 2,000 were issued 10/1/2010 at a conversion price of $0.99.
