*Subject to the Ownership Limitation (defined below), TWF may be deemed to beneficially own a total of 4,352,073 shares of Common Stock (the TWF Shares), including (i) 1,268,740 shares of Common Stock held by TWF, (ii) 1,060,606 shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of $1,750,000 in liquidation preference of the issuers Series A 7% Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock (Preferred Stock) issued to TWF, (iii) 303,030 shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of warrants issued to TWF on June 29, 2007, (iv) 303,030 shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of warrants issued to TWF on October 29, 2007 (together with the warrants issued on June 29, 2007, the Warrants), and (v) 1,416,667 shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of $4,250,000 in principal amount of the issuers Convertible Notes due July 31, 2011 issued to TWF on July 23, 2008 (the TWF Notes).
Subject to the Ownership Limitation, TWAM may be deemed to beneficially own a total of 4,685,406 shares of Common Stock (the TWAM Shares), including (i) the TWF Shares, which it may be deemed to beneficially own in its capacity as the investment manager for TWF, and (ii) 333,333 shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of $1,000,000 in principal amount of the issuers Convertible Notes due July 31, 2011 issued to TWAM on July 23, 2008 (together with the TWF Notes, the Notes).
In accordance with Rule 13d-4 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, because the number of shares of Common Stock into which the Reporting Persons Notes, Preferred Stock and Warrants are convertible and exercisable is limited, pursuant to the terms of such instruments, to that number of shares of Common Stock which would result in the Reporting Persons having beneficial ownership of 9.9% of the total issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock (the "Ownership Limitation"), the Reporting Persons disclaim beneficial ownership of any and all shares of Common Stock that would cause any Reporting Person's beneficial ownership to exceed the Ownership Limitation.
Therefore, in accordance with the Ownership Limitation, based upon 26,285,761 shares of common stock outstanding as of July 23, 2008, each of the Reporting Persons beneficially owns 2,748,818 shares of Common Stock, TWF disclaims beneficial ownership of 1,603,255 and TWAM disclaims beneficial ownership of 1,936,588 shares of Common Stock.
In addition, as permitted by Rule 13d-4, the filing of this statement shall not be construed as an admission that TWAM, in its capacity as investment manager for TWF, is the beneficial owner of the TWF Shares or that David Crook, in his capacity as CEO and controlling shareholder of TWAM, is the beneficial owner of the TWAM Shares. TWAM expressly disclaims any equitable or beneficial ownership of the TWF Shares, and David Crook expressly disclaims any equitable or beneficial ownership of the TWAM Shares.
