AMENDMENT TO THE ARTICLES OF INCORPORATION

On August 13, 2009, the majority stockholders of the Company approved an amendment to the Company’s Articles of Incorporation, as amended, to increase the number of authorized shares of Common Stock from 1,450,000,000 to 5,000,000,000 and to increase the number of authorized shares of Preferred Stock from 10,000,000 to 50,000,000.  The Company currently has authorized capital stock of 1,450,000,000 shares and approximately 1,324,955,532 shares of Common Stock are outstanding and has authorized preferred stock of 10,000,000 and approximately 9,999,030 shares of Preferred Stock are outstanding as of August 13, 2009.  The Board believes that the increase in authorized common and preferred shares would provide the Company greater flexibility with respect to the Company’s capital structure for such purposes as additional equity financing, and stock based acquisitions.

INCREASE IN AUTHORIZED COMMON STOCK

The terms of the additional shares of Common Stock will be identical to those of the currently outstanding shares of Common Stock.  However, because holders of Common Stock have no preemptive rights to purchase or subscribe for any un-issued stock of the Company, the issuance of additional shares of Common Stock will reduce the current stockholders' percentage ownership interest in the total outstanding shares of Common Stock. This amendment and the creation of additional shares of authorized common stock will not alter the current number of issued shares.  The relative rights and limitations of the shares of Common Stock will remain unchanged under this amendment.

As of the Record Date, a total of 1,324,955,532 shares of the Company's currently authorized 1,450,000,000 shares of  Common Stock are issued and outstanding.  The increase in the number of authorized but un-issued shares of Common Stock would enable the Company, without further stockholder approval, to issue shares from time to time as may be required for proper business purposes, such as raising additional capital for ongoing operations, business and asset acquisitions, stock splits and dividends, present and future employee benefit programs and other corporate purposes.

The proposed increase in the authorized number of shares of Common Stock could have a number of effects on the Company's stockholders depending upon the exact nature and circumstances of any actual issuances of authorized but un-issued shares.  The increase could have an anti-takeover effect, in that additional shares could be issued (within the limits imposed by applicable law) in one or more transactions that could make a change in control or takeover of the Company more difficult.  For example, additional shares could be issued by the Company so as to dilute the stock ownership or voting rights of persons seeking to obtain control of the Company, even if the persons seeking to obtain control of the Company offer an above-market premium that is favored by a majority of the independent shareholders.  Similarly, the issuance of additional shares to certain persons allied with the Company's management could have the effect of making it more difficult to remove the Company's current management by diluting the stock ownership or voting rights of persons seeking to cause such removal.  The Company does not have any other provisions in its articles or incorporation, by-laws, employment agreements, credit agreements or any other documents that have material anti-takeover consequences.  Additionally, the Company has no plans or proposals to adopt other provisions or enter into other arrangements, except as disclosed below, that may have material anti-takeover consequences.  The Board of Directors is not aware of any attempt, or contemplated attempt, to acquire control of the Company, and this proposal is not being presented with the intent that it be utilized as a type of anti- takeover device.

There are currently no plans, arrangements, commitments or understandings for the issuance of the additional shares of Common Stock which are proposed to be authorized:
