The Company is offering and selling 3,201,526 Units to Ocean Fund, LLC, Primary Colors, LLC and R. Thomas Bailey (the "Lenders"), each of whom have advanced funds to the Company pursuant to that certain Unsecured Line of Credit Agreement and Promissory Note dated as of January 27, 2009, as amended on July 22, 2009 (the "Line of Credit"). The Company intends to use the proceeds from the offering to satisfy all or substantially all of the Company's obligations to the Lenders under the Line of Credit. The Company is not offering Units to the one lender under the Line of Credit that is controlled by the Company's Chairman, Kraig Higginson, due to certain regulatory restrictions relating to the sale of Units to an officer of the Company. The Company intends to explore an alternative means of satisfying its obligations to this lender under the Line of Credit at a later date. The principal and accrued interest outstanding to Mr. Higginson currently totals approximately $5.3 million.

The sale of the Units to the Lenders is being made pursuant to Subscription Agreements dated October 19, 2009 (the "Subscription Agreements") with each of the Lenders. Pursuant to the Subscription Agreements, the Lenders have agreed to purchase the Units for a negotiated price of $1.68 per Unit, resulting in gross proceeds to the Company of approximately $5.4 million, before deducting estimated offering expenses of approximately $75,000. The per share exercise price for the Warrants is $1.61. The Warrants are exercisable at any time on or after the date of issuance and expire on the date that is ten years from the date of issuance. The closing of the sale and issuance of the Units to the Lenders is expected to take place on October 19, 2009, subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions.

In addition to the sale of the Units to the Lenders, the Company is also offering an aggregate of 1,120,526 additional Units to certain stockholders and former stockholders of the Company (the "Participation Rights Holders") pursuant to agreements dated June 30, 2009 between the Company and the Participation Rights Holders. Each of the Participation Rights Holders is entitled to purchase a number of Units equal to at least its pro rata portion of 35% of the Units offered on the same terms and conditions as the Lenders. The Company expects that the Participation Rights Holders will receive formal notice of the offering to the Lenders on October 20, 2009 and will be required to notify the Company of any election to participate in the offering before the close of business on October 22, 2009. The sale of Units to any Participation Rights Holders who elect to participate in the offering will be made pursuant to subscription agreements in substantially the same form as the Subscription Agreements executed by the Lenders, and the closing of any sale of Units to Participation Rights Holders who elect to participate in the offering is expected to take place on or about October 23, 2009, subject to satisfaction of customary closing conditions.
