On March 16, 2010, the Issuer issued to Mr. Zilkha a convertible promissory note in the principal amount of $283,500 (the “Note”).  The terms of the Note provide that it may be converted into shares of the Issuer’s common stock at any time following the first anniversary of its issuance at a conversion price of $0.03 per share. The Note has not been converted at this time, but as of March 16, 2011, the Note is convertible at Mr. Zilkha’s option into 9,45,000 shares of the Issuer’s common stock based on a conversion price of $0.03.
 
Accordingly, as of March 16, 2011, Mr. Zilkha was the beneficial owner of (i) 23,890,000 shares of the Issuer’s Common Stock; (ii) 945,000 shares of the Issuer’s Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants; and (iii) 9,450,000 shares of the Issuer’s Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Note.
 
As of the same date, the Issuer had an aggregate of 270,464,478 shares of its Common Stock outstanding.  As a result, as of such date, Mr. Zilkha owned approximately 12.21% of the Issuer’s Common Stock outstanding, inclusive of the shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants and conversion of the Note.
