The aggregate cash payment is equal to the product of the price of $0.22 per pre-split share and 26,000 pre-split shares, the estimated aggregate number of shares held by such holders.

Pursuant to Rule 0-11(b)(1) and Fee Rate Advisory dated December 27, 2010, the transaction valuation equals the value of the securities proposed to be acquired and the filing fee equals $116.10 per million of the transaction value, in each case based on the cash out prices proposed to be paid for the estimated numbers of shares of Common Stock proposed to be acquired in the Rule 13e-3 Transaction.
