a California corporation (the &ldquo;<B>Company</B>&rdquo;) entered into certain subscription agreements and/or exchange agreements
(the &ldquo;<B>Subscription Agreements</B>&rdquo; and &ldquo;<B>Exchange Agreements</B>&rdquo;) separately with 10 Directors of
the Company, for the private placement of 134,761 newly issued shares of the Company&rsquo;s no par common stock for total proceeds
of $382,044. The total proceeds is comprised of $295,170 in cash subscription proceeds for 104,116 newly issued shares of common
stock , and cancellation of $86,874 of principal amounts on notes payable to Directors in exchange of 30,645 newly issued common
shares. The notes payable to Directors that were exchanged for newly issued shares of common stock of the Company were one-year
notes totaling $86,874 in principal amount and accrued interest, with an annual interest rate of 6%. The proceeds from the stock
subscription will be used to fund ongoing operations of the Company.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">Pursuant to the Subscription and Exchange
Agreements, the price of the newly issued stock was based upon a price of $2.835 per share which was the average of the high and
low price of the Company&rsquo;s stock (UBFO) that traded on October 18, 2012. The following table summarizes the total number
of shares issued and the principal amounts of notes exchanged, if any related to each Director.</P>
