#### Proposal1
<div align='center'>**TO APPROVE THE AMENDMENT OF OUR CHARTER TO EFFECT THE 1:4 REVERSE STOCK SPLIT**</div>

### Overview
At the Special Meeting, our stockholders will be asked to approve an amendment to our Charter to effect the 1:4 Reverse Stock Split. The 1:4 Reverse Stock Split is a consolidation of the Common Stock by a ratio of 1:4.

our ability to have our Common Stock remain listed on Nasdaq, including the maintenance of the required number of shares of Common Stock registered with Nasdaq;

•

the anticipated impact of the 1:4 Reverse Stock Split on our ability to raise additional financing;

•

the potential for downward pressure on the bid price of the Common Stock caused by redemptions of Preferred Stock; and
