|
As

“Company”) sought, and as of September 10, 2008, entered into, amendments to the

private placement.
As
a
result of the amendments: (i) the Company issued newly-issued shares of
restricted common stock, in an amount equal to 15% of the number of shares
into
which each unexercised $2.00 warrant outstanding was exercisable, and each
$2.00
warrant (other than $2.00 warrants exercised or exercisable for registered
shares) will be forfeited and cancelled; (ii) the exercise price of all $2.00
warrants registered with the SEC has been adjusted to $0.40 per share; and
(iii)
the Company issued all previous purchasers of shares of common stock at prices
over $0.40 per share additional shares of common stock so that their effective
purchase price per share will be equal to $0.40 per share.
Accordingly,
after giving effect to the foregoing amendments, the Company issued
7,523,447
shares
of
common stock and after giving effect of such issuance, the Company’s outstanding
common stock will increase to 68,374,896 shares. In addition, the Company has
warrants to purchase 4,624,200 shares at an exercise price of

reference.
Market-Standoff
The
terms
of the market standoff adopted pursuant to the amendment also provides that
the
subscribers’ agreements to refrain from sales at the request of an underwriter
or placement agent will be limited to a maximum of 9 months. The market standoff
will expire no later than 90 days following the date on which the Company enters
into an underwriting or placement agent agreement for a public offering. There
is also a condition that the Company’s officers, directors and major
shareholders will enter into equivalent market standoff agreements. In the
event
of any modification or release, all subscribers subject to the market standoff
will benefit on a pro rata basis and be treated comparably.
