shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock issuable on the effective date of
the Merger, the Agreement of Merger that is required to be filed with the

Board of
Directors
The
following individual was elected to serve as an additional director of the
Company as of the Effective Date of the Merger: George
Johnson. The directors elected as part of the Merger were designated
by AHS pursuant to the Merger Agreement. Committee assignments have not yet been
determined for the newly elected directors.
Executive
Officers
As of the Effective Date of the Merger,
George Johnson was elected to serve as Chief Operating Officer and President of
the Company.
Certain
biographical information related to the director elected as part of the Merger
is set forth below.
George Johnson
Mr. Johnson, age 61, is currently the
President and Chief Operating Officer of PawsPlus, Inc. (PPLS). He is
also the President and Founder of Animal Health Associates, Inc. a subsidiary of
PawsPlus. Mr. Johnson, along with his wife founded Animal Health
Associates, Inc. in May of 1997. After acquiring 30 independent
vaccination clinics in Florida, a division of AHA emerged named Animal Health
Services (AHS). Animal Health Services grew to a stronger, more
viable company within a few months with the addition of the largest pet retail
chain in Florida as its anchor account with over 70 locations. Its growth has
continued to expand throughout Florida and Georgia for a current total of 225
different clinic site locations. Premium Product Supply was also founded under
Animal Health Associates, Inc. to service e-commerce and wholesale
distribution.
Prior to AHA, Mr. Johnson was VP
Operations of Pet Vaccines Services (PVS) and Pet Prevent-a-Care (PPC) based out
of California from late 1993 through 1997. These two companies
provided affordable health care to pets throughout seven states. PVS
and PPC were the original founding companies of virtually every vaccination
company that exists today. Mr. Johnson was hired to solidify the
operational structure of the company and to assist in new sales opportunities.
In 1996 the company’s owners lost the contract with their anchor host account,
resulting in the decision to territorialize the veterinary clinic model. As a
result, several new companies were developed, including Animal Health
Associates, Inc.
Certain Relationships and
Related Transactions
As part
of the Merger, Mr. Johnson and his wife, the sole shareholders of AHS, received
780,787 shares of PawsPlus Series A Preferred Stock. Those shares represent an
aggregate of 30,006,894 voting shares (on a fully converted basis) or
approximately 33% of the total outstanding voting securities of the Company
immediately following the Merger.
