application to Nasdaq, the Company has established an audit committee consisting of three members of its board of directors effective
upon the listing of its common stock on Nasdaq. The audit committee consists of Messrs. Kenneth Leonard, Frederick L. White
and Marvin Shrear, each of whom is an existing director and has been determined by the board of directors to be "independent"
as defined in Rule 10A-3 under the Exchange Act and relevant Nasdaq rules.
The audit committee will at all times be
composed exclusively of "independent directors" who, as required by Nasdaq rules, have not participated in the preparation
of the Company's financial statements at any time during the past three years and are able to read and understand fundamental
financial statements, including the Company's balance sheet, income statement and cash flow statement.
A copy of the Audit Committee Charter,
which will become effective upon the listing of the Company's common stock on Nasdaq, is filed as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current
Report on Form 8-K.
In addition, as part of the listing application, the Company was required to certify to Nasdaq that the committee
has, and will continue to have, at least one member who has past employment experience in finance or accounting, requisite professional
certification in accounting, or other comparable experience or background that results in such member's financial sophistication.
The board of directors determined that Mr.
Marvin Shrear
satisfied the Nasdaq definition
of financial sophistication and also qualifies as an "audit committee financial expert," as defined under SEC rules.
A copy of the Company's press release, dated May 1, 2012, is included as Exhibit
99.2 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
