The Authorized Shares Amendment does not affect the number of shares or rights of preferred stock authorized.

#### Effectiveness of the Amendment
If this Proposal 3 is approved by the Company’s stockholders, the Authorized Shares Amendment will become effective upon the filing of a Certificate of Amendment to the Certificate of Incorporation with the Delaware Secretary of State, which the Company intends to do promptly following the Special Meeting. If this Proposal 3 is not approved by the Company’s stockholders, the Authorized Shares Amendment will not be implemented, and the Company’s capitalization will remain as it is currently.

The Authorized Shares Amendment contemplated by this Proposal 3 is not conditioned upon the approval of any of other Proposal.

Required Vote and Recommendation of Board of Directors

Approval of Proposal 3 requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the outstanding shares of our Common Stock. Abstentions will count as a vote against this Proposal 3. Because Proposal 3 is considered a “routine” proposal, we do not expect any broker non-votes.
