#### Preferred Stock
In general. Our preferred stock may be issued from time to time by our Board as shares of one or more classes or series. Except as otherwise provided herein or required by law, the Board is vested with the authority to provide, out of the

unissued shares of preferred stock, for one or more additional classes or series of preferred stock and, with respect to each such class or series, to prescribe the classes, series and the number of each class or series of preferred stock and the voting powers, designations, preferences, limitations, restrictions and relative rights of each class or series of preferred stock.

The issuance of shares of preferred stock, or the issuance of rights to purchase shares of preferred stock, could be used to discourage an unsolicited acquisition proposal. For instance, the issuance of a series of preferred stock might impede a business combination by including class voting rights that would enable the holders to block such a transaction; or the issuance might facilitate a business combination by including voting rights that would provide a required percentage vote of the stockholders. In addition, under some circumstances, the issuance of preferred stock could adversely affect the voting power of the holders of the common stock. Although our Board is required to make any determination to issue preferred stock based on its judgment as to the best interests of our stockholders, the Board could act in a manner that would discourage an acquisition attempt or other transaction that some or a majority of the stockholders might believe to be in their best interests or in which stockholders might receive a premium for their stock over the then market price of the stock. The Board does not currently intend to seek stockholder approval prior to any issuance of currently authorized stock, unless otherwise required by law or the rules of any market on which our securities are traded.

#### Limitations of Liability and Indemnification
The articles of incorporation and the bylaws contain provisions that limit the liability of our directors for monetary damages to the fullest extent permitted by Nevada law. Consequently, our directors generally are not personally liable to the Company or its stockholders for monetary damages for any breach of fiduciary duties as directors, except liability for any act or omission not in good faith or that involves intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law.

The articles of incorporation and bylaws provide that the Company will indemnify, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any person who is or was a party or is threatened to be made
