Pursuant to the Agreement, the Reporting Person agreed to pay the Company the sum of $1,742,149 (the "Payment") by delivering to the Company for cancellation within ten (10) days of the date of the Agreement, shares of Common Stock of the Company and/or warrants to purchase shares of Common Stock of the Company with an aggregate value equal to the Payment. Under the Agreement, the value of each share of Common Stock delivered under the Agreement is equal to the last sale price of the Company's Common Stock on the trading day immediately prior to the date on which the shares of Common Stock were delivered to the Company (the "Market Price"). The value of any warrant delivered under the Agreement is equal to the Market Price of the underlying shares less the exercise price of the warrant. The Reporting Person delivered the shares of Common Stock and warrants to the Company pursuant to the Agreement on Monday, November 17, 2003, with the value of the securities based on the Market Price on November 14, 2003 of $.94 per share of Common Stock.
