DTCC CHILL REMOVED!

On or about January 2012, the Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation (“DTC”) suspended post-trade settlement services (known as “Global Lock” or “Chill”) for our securities. Upon our inquiry, the compliance department at the DTC advised us that the Global Lock had been instituted due to their uncertainty about the valid issuance of shares of our company held in street name under their nominee Cede & Co. Our management subsequently provided documentation necessary to lift the Global Lock, and on August 14, 2012, the DTC advised us that they had resumed accepting deposits of the Company’s stock for depository and book-entry transfer services.
