Section 1 - Registrant's Business and Operations

Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On July 8, 2006, The FrontHaul Group, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("FHAL"), entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "Merger Agreement") with Conversion Solutions, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("CVSU"). The Merger Agreement contemplates that, subject to the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement, Conversion Solutions, Inc. will be merged with and into FHAL, with FHAL continuing after the merger as the surviving corporation (the "Merger").

Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, at the effective time of the Merger, each issued and outstanding share of common stock of Conversion Solutions, Inc. will be converted into the right to receive 1 shares of FHAL common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the "Exchange Ratio"), and each issued, outstanding, unexpired and unexercised CVSU stock option will be converted into FHAL stock options using the Exchange Ratio.

The Board of Directors (the "Board") and Majority shareholders of FHAL has unanimously approved the Merger Agreement. FHAL and CVSU have made customary representations, warranties and covenants in the Merger Agreement. FHAL's covenants include, among others, that (i) CVSU will conduct its business in the ordinary course consistent with past practice during the interim period between the execution of the Merger Agreement and the effective time of the Merger, (ii) FHAL will not engage in any types of transactions during such interim period, (iii) FHAL and CVSU will not solicit proposals relating to alternative business combination transactions, and (iv) subject to certain exceptions, FHAL and CVSU will not enter into discussions concerning or provide confidential information in connection with any proposals for alternative business combination transactions.

FHAL and CVSU intend to file an S-4 registration statement / prospectus in connection with the proposed Merger for the registration of the CVSU share pursuant to the Merger agreement. Completion of the Merger is subject to customary closing conditions, including, among other things, (i) absence of any order or injunction prohibiting the consummation of the Merger; (ii) the accuracy of the representations and warranties of the each party; and (iii) compliance of each party with its covenants.

The Merger Agreement contains certain termination rights for both CVSU and FHAL, and further provides that, upon termination of the Merger Agreement under specified circumstances.

This description of the Merger Agreement is qualified in its entirety by the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement, which is filed as Exhibit 2.1 hereto, and is incorporated herein by reference.

The Voting Agreements

In connection with the execution of the Merger Agreement, FHAL's executive officers and each member of the Board, in their capacities as stockholders, entered into a Voting Agreement with CVSU (each, a "Voting Agreement"), pursuant to which, among other things, each executive officer of FHAL and member of the Board agreed and voted in favor of the Merger and agreed not to dispose of any of shares common stock held by such executive officer or member of the Board prior to the consummation of the Merger. The Voting Agreements will terminate upon the earlier of the consummation of the Merger or the termination of the Merger Agreement. This description of the Voting Agreements is qualified in its entirety by the terms and conditions of the Voting Agreements, a form of which is filed as Exhibit 2.2 hereto, and is incorporated herein by reference.


 

The Merger Agreement and the Voting Agreements provide investors with information regarding their terms. They are not intended to provide any other factual information about CVSU or FHAL. In addition, the Merger Agreement contains representations and warranties of each of the parties to the Merger Agreement and the assertions embodied in those representations and warranties are qualified by information in confidential disclosure schedules that the parties delivered in connection with the execution of the Merger Agreement. The parties reserve the right to, but are not obligated to, amend or revise the Merger Agreement or the disclosure schedules. In addition, certain representations and warranties may not be accurate or complete as of any specified date because they are subject to a contractual standard of materiality different from those generally applicable to stockholders or were used for the purpose of allocating risk between the parties rather than establishing matters as facts. Accordingly, investors should not rely on the representations and warranties as characterizations of the actual state of facts, or for any other purpose, at the time they were made or otherwise.

Additional Information about the Merger and Where to Find It

Exhibit 2.3

EXHIBIT C

FORM OF AFFILIATE LETTER

Re: Affiliate's Agreement

 

Ladies and Gentlemen:

       The undersigned is a shareholder of Conversion Solutions, Inc. (the "Company"), a Delaware corporation and will become a shareholder of Fronthaul Group Inc. ("FHAL"), a Delaware Corporation, pursuant to the transactions described in the Merger Agreement, dated as of July 8, 2006, by and between the Company and FHAL (the "Merger Agreement"), and the related Plan of Merger between the Company and FHAL. Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, the Company's outstanding common stock ("Company Stock " ) will be exchanged for shares of FHAL's common stock merger consideration ( "FHAL Stock " ). This Affiliate's Agreement represents an agreement between the undersigned and FHAL regarding certain rights and obligations of the undersigned in connection with (i) the shares of Company Stock beneficially owned by the undersigned and (ii) the shares of FHAL Stock for which such shares of Company Stock will be exchanged as a result of the merger of the Company with and into FHAL (the "Merger").

       The execution and delivery of this Agreement by the undersigned is a material inducement to FHAL to consummate the Merger (as such term is defined in the Merger Agreement). In consideration of the Merger and the mutual covenants contained herein, the undersigned and FHAL hereby agree as follows:

       1. AFFILIATE STATUS. The undersigned understands and agrees that as to the Company he, she or it may be deemed an "affiliate" as that term is used in Rule 145 of the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission ( "SEC" ) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "1933 Act" ).

       2. COVENANTS AND WARRANTIES OF UNDERSIGNED. The undersigned represents warrants and agrees that:

       (a)   FHAL has informed the undersigned that the issuance of shares of FHAL Stock will be registered under the 1933 Act on a Registration Statement on Form S-4, and that any distribution by the undersigned of FHAL Stock that has not been registered under the 1933 Act and that such shares received pursuant to the Merger can only be sold by the undersigned (1) following registration under the 1933 Act, or (2) in conformity with the volume and other applicable requirements of Rules 144 or 145(d) promulgated by the SEC as the same now exist or may hereafter be amended, or (3) to the extent some other exemption from registration under the 1933 Act might be available.

       (b)   The undersigned is aware that FHAL and the CVSU intend to treat the Merger as a tax-free reorganization under Section 368 of the Internal Revenue Code, as amended (the "Code" ), for federal income tax purposes. The undersigned agrees to treat the transaction in the same manner as FHAL and the Company for federal income tax purposes. The undersigned acknowledges that Section 1.368-1(b) of the U.S. federal income tax regulations requires "continuity of interest" in order for the Merger to be treated as a tax-free reorganization under Section 368 of the Code. Continuity of interest may not be preserved if stock of an acquired company is disposed of before an acquisition to the acquired or acquiring company or to persons related to either the acquired or acquiring companies for consideration other than stock of the acquiring company, if a shareholder of the acquired company received certain distributions from the acquired company with respect to his stock in connection with the acquisition, or if stock of the acquiring company issued in the Merger is disposed of in connection with the Merger to the acquiring company or to persons related to the acquiring company. Accordingly, the undersigned declares that in connection with the Merger (i) the undersigned has not and will not dispose of any of the stock of either the CVSU or FHAL to either the CVSU or FHAL (other than in exchange for the Merger Consideration), to a person related to the Company (within the meaning of Section 1.368-1(e)(1)(i)(sixth sentence) of the U.S. federal income tax regulations) or to a person related to FHAL (within the meaning of Section 1.368-1(e)(3) of such regulations), (ii) the undersigned has not and will not receive any dividend or other distribution with respect to the stock of the CVSU attributable directly or indirectly to funds provided by FHAL, and (iii) the undersigned will not dispose of any FHAL stock received in the Merger to FHAL or to a person related to FHAL within the meaning of Section 1.368-1(e)(3) of the U.S. federal income tax regulations.


 

       3. RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER. The undersigned understands and agrees that stop transfer instructions with respect to the shares of FHAL Stock received by the undersigned pursuant to the Merger will be given to the FHAL transfer agent and that there will be placed on the certificates for such shares, or shares issued in substitution thereof, a legend stating substantially as follows:

"The shares represented by this certificate may not be sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of except or unless (1) covered by an effective registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or an exemption there from, (2) in accordance with (i) Rule 145(d) (in the case of shares issued to an individual who is not an affiliate of the issuer) or (ii) Rule 144 (in the case of shares issued to an individual who is an affiliate of the issuer) of the Rules and Regulations of such Act, or (3) in accordance with a legal opinion satisfactory to counsel for the issuer that such sale or transfer is otherwise exempt from the registration requirements of such Act. For avoidance of doubt, it is understood that a legal opinion is neither required by law nor this legend and it shall be in the issuer's sole discretion whether or not to require that a legal opinion be delivered to it prior to any such, transfer or other disposition." Such legend will also be placed on any certificate representing FHAL securities issued subsequent to the original issuance of the FHAL Stock pursuant to the Merger as a result of any stock dividend, stock split, or other recapitalization as long as the FHAL Stock issued to the undersigned pursuant to the Merger has not been transferred in such manner to justify the removal of the legend there from. If the provisions of Rules 144 and 145 are amended to eliminate restrictions applicable to the FHAL Stock received by the undersigned pursuant to the Merger, or at the expiration of the restrictive period set forth in Rule 145(d), FHAL, upon the request of the undersigned, will cause the certificates representing the shares of FHAL Stock issued to the undersigned in connection with the Merger to be reissued free of any legend relating to the restrictions set forth in Rules 144 or 145(d) upon receipt by FHAL of an opinion of its counsel to the effect that such legend may be removed.

       4. UNDERSTANDING OF RESTRICTIONS ON DISPOSITIONS. The undersigned has carefully read the Merger Agreement and this Affiliate's Agreement and discussed their requirements and impact upon the ability to sell, transfer, or otherwise dispose of the shares of FHAL Stock received by the undersigned, to the extent he or it believes necessary, with his counsel.

       5. TRANSFER UNDER RULE 145(D). If the undersigned desires to sell or otherwise transfer the shares of FHAL Stock received by him or it in connection with the Merger at any time during the restrictive period set forth in Rule 145(d), the undersigned will provide the necessary representation letter to the transfer agent for FHAL Stock together with such additional information as the transfer agent may reasonably request.

       6. ACKNOWLEDGMENTS. The undersigned recognizes and agrees that the foregoing provisions also may apply to (i) the undersigned's spouse, if that spouse has the same home as the undersigned, (ii) any relative of the undersigned who has the same home as the undersigned, (iii) any trust or estate in which the undersigned, such spouse, and any such relative collectively own at least a 10% beneficial interest or of which any of the foregoing serves as trustee, executor, or in any similar capacity, and (iv) any corporation or other organization in which the undersigned, such spouse, and any such relative collectively own at least 10% of any class of equity securities or of the equity interest. The undersigned further recognizes that, under certain circumstances, any sale of FHAL Stock by the undersigned within a period of less than six months following the effective time of the Merger may subject the undersigned to liability pursuant to Section 16(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

       7. INJUNCTIVE RELIEF. Each of the parties acknowledge that (i) the covenants and the restrictions contained in this Agreement are necessary, fundamental, and required for the protection of FHAL and to preserve for FHAL the benefits of the Merger; (ii) such covenants relate to matters which are of a special, unique, and extraordinary character that gives each of such covenants a special, unique, and extraordinary value; and (iii) a breach of any such covenants or any other provision of this Agreement shall result in irreparable harm and damages to FHAL which cannot be adequately compensated by a monetary award. Accordingly, it is expressly agreed that in addition to all other remedies available at law or in equity, FHAL shall be entitled to the immediate remedy of a temporary restraining order, preliminary injunction, or such other form of injunctive or equitable relief as may be used by any court of competent jurisdiction to restrain or enjoin any of the parties hereto from breaching any such covenant or provision or to specifically enforce the provisions hereof.

       8. MISCELLANEOUS. This Affiliate's Agreement is the complete agreement between FHAL and the undersigned concerning the subject matter hereof. Any notice required to be sent to any party hereunder shall be sent by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, using the addresses set forth herein or such other address as shall be furnished in writing by the parties. This Affiliate's Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of Georgia, without regard to principles of conflicts of laws.

ARTICLE XI- INDEMNIFICATIONAND INSURANCE:

Section 1. (a) RIGHT TO INDEMNIFICATION. Each person who was or is made a party or is threatened to be made a party or is involved in any action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (hereinafter a "proceeding"),by reason of the fact that he or she, or a person of whom he or she is the legal representative ,is or was a director or officer, of the Corporation or is or was serving at the request of the Corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation or of a partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, including service with respect to employee benefit plans, whether the basis of such proceeding is alleged action in an official capacity as a director, officer, employee or agent or in any other capacity while serving as a director, officer, employee or agent, shall be indemnified and held harmless by the Corporation to the fullest extent authorized by the Delaware General Corporation Law, as the same exists or may hereafter be amended(but, in the case of any such amendment, only to the extent that such amendment permits the Corporation to provide broader indemnification rights than said law permitted the Corporation to provide prior to such amendment),against all expense, liability and loss (including attorneys' fees, judgments, fines, ERISA excise taxes or penalties and amounts paid or to be paid in settlement) reasonably incurred or suffered by such person in connection therewith and such indemnification shall continue as to a person who has ceased to be a director, officer, employee or agent and shall inure to the benefit of his or her heirs, executors and administrators; provided, however, that, except as provided in paragraph (b) hereof, the Corporation shall indemnify any such person seeking indemnification in connection with a proceeding(or part thereof) initiated by such person only if such proceeding (or part thereof) was authorized by the Board of Directors of the Corporation. The right to indemnification conferred in this Section shall be a contract right and shall include the right to be paid by the Corporation the expenses incurred in defending any such proceeding in advance of its final disposition: provided, however, that, if the Delaware General Corporation Law requires, the payment of such expenses incurred by a director or officer in his or her capacity as a director or officer (and not in any other capacity in which service was or is rendered by such person while a director or officer, including, without limitation, service to an employee benefit plan) in advance of the final disposition of a proceeding, shall be made only upon delivery to the corporation of an undertaking, by or on behalf of such director or officer, to repay all amounts so advanced if it shall ultimately be determined that such director or officer is not entitled to be indemnified under this Section or otherwise. The Corporation may, by action of its Board of Directors, provide indemnification to employees and agents of the Corporation with the same scope and effect as the foregoing indemnification of directors and officers. (b) RIGHT OF CLAIMANT TO BRING SUIT: If a claim under paragraph (a) of this Section is not paid in full by the Corporation within thirty days after a written claim has been received by the Corporation, the claimant may at any time thereafter bring suit against the Corporation to recover the unpaid amount of the claim and, if successful in whole or in part, the claimant shall be entitled to be paid also the expense of prosecuting such claim. It shall be a defense to any such action (other than an action brought to enforce a claim for expenses incurred in defending any proceeding in advance of its final disposition where the required undertaking, if any is required, has been tendered to the Corporation) that the claimant has not met the standards of conduct which make it permissible under the Delaware General Corporation law for the Corporation to indemnify the claimant for the amount claimed, but the burden of proving such defense shall be on the Corporation. Neither the failure of the Corporation (including its Board of Directors, independent legal counsel, or its stockholders) to have made a determination prior to the commencement of such action that indemnification of the claimant is proper in the circumstances because he or she has met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in the Delaware General Corporation Law, nor an actual determination by the Corporation (including its Board of Directors, independent legal counsel, or its stockholders) that the claimant has not met such applicable standard or conduct, shall be a defense to the action or create a presumption that the claimant has not met the applicable standard or conduct. (c) Notwithstanding any limitation to the contrary contained in sub-paragraphs (a) and 8 (b) of this section, the corporation shall, to the fullest extent permitted by Section 145 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, as the same may be amended and supplemented, indemnify any and all persons whom it shall have power to indemnify under said section from and against any and all of the expenses, liabilities or other matters referred to in or covered by said section, and the indemnification provided for herein shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which those indemnified may be entitled under any By-law, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested Directors or otherwise, both as to action in his official capacity and as to action in another capacity while holding such office, and shall continue as to a person who has ceased to be director, officer, employee or agent and shall inure to the benefit of the heirs, executors and administrators of such a person. (d) INSURANCE: The Corporation may maintain insurance, at its expense, to protect itself and any director, officer, employee or agent of the Corporation or another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise against any such expense, liability or loss, whether or not the Corporation would have the power to indemnify such person against such expense, liability or loss under the Delaware General Corporation Law.

ARTICLE XII . AMENDMENTS

Exhibit 3.3

Corporate Charters

CONVERSION SOLUTIONS, INC.
AUDIT COMMITTEE OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS

Audit and Non-Audit Services and Pre-Approval Policy

Statement of Principles

Under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (the "Act") and the corporate governance provisions of the NASDAQ Listings Requirements, the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors (the "Committee") is responsible for the appointment, compensation and oversight of the work of the independent auditor for cvsu. (The "Company"). As part of this responsibility, the Committee is required to pre-approve the audit and non-audit services performed by the independent auditor and to assure that the performance of non-audit related services by the independent auditor does not impair the auditor's independence from the Company.

To implement these provisions of the Act, and the related rules promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"), the Committee has adopted this Audit and Non-Audit Services Pre-Approval Policy (the "Policy") to set forth the procedures and the conditions pursuant to which audit and non-audit services proposed to be performed by the independent auditor are pre-approved by the Committee or its designee.

Responsibility of Audit Committee; Delegation

The Committee, or, in the event it delegates its authority to one or more of its members as stated below, its designee, shall pre-approve the provision of all audit and non-audit services provided to the Company by any independent auditing firm engaged to perform the external audit of the Company's financial statements ("Pre-Approval"). The Committee may delegate its Pre-Approval authority to one or more of its members. Any such delegation shall be in writing and shall continue in effect until the earlier of: (1) termination of such delegation in writing by the Committee; (2) resignation or removal of the member from the Committee or the Board; or (3) expiration of the term of the delegated member if such member is not re-elected to the Board and appointed to the Committee. The member(s) to whom such authority is delegated shall report any Pre-Approval decisions made to the Committee at its next scheduled meeting.

Any Pre-Approval actions may be taken at any meeting of the Committee, by Unanimous Written Consent of the Committee, or by action in writing or verbally (if verbally, followed up in writing) if Pre-Approval is provided by the Committee's designee. The Committee does not delegate its responsibilities to pre-approve services performed by the independent auditor to management.

Pre-Approval; Generally

Prior to the beginning of each fiscal year, management will submit to the Committee a request for Pre-Approval of Audit Services, Audit-Related Services, Tax Services and/or All Other Services, as described below, anticipated to be incurred during such fiscal year. Such request will include as much specificity and detail as is reasonable to enable the Committee to satisfy its responsibilities, and include a copy of the engagement letter to be executed by the Committee to document the engagement of the independent auditor and a good faith estimate or range of the fees for such services.

During the course of a fiscal year, management shall submit to the Committee or its designee a request for Pre-Approval of any additional Audit Services, Audit-Related Services, Tax Services and All Other Services, not listed in the initial request for Pre-Approval described above, or for any material changes to the scope of any service for which Pre-Approval has been obtained. Such request will include as much specificity and detail as is reasonable to enable the Committee to satisfy its responsibilities. Such request must include a detailed description of the services to be rendered and a joint statement by both the independent auditor and the Chief Financial Officer or Director of Finance as to whether, in their view, the request or application is consistent with the SEC's rules on auditor independence. The Committee and its designee may consult with whomever it chooses in connection with its Pre-Approval determinations.

Audit Services

The Committee shall pre-approve the engagement of the independent auditor to perform the annual external audit of the Company's financial statements ("Audit Services"). Audit Services includes services identified in the request that only the independent auditor reasonably can provide for the fiscal year for which such Pre-Approval is sought, which services may include some or all of the specific services listed on Appendix A attached to this Policy. Any request for Pre-Approval of Audit Services will include a good faith estimate or range of the fees for the Audit Services requested.

Audit-Related Services

"Audit-Related Services" are defined as assurance and related services that are reasonably related to the performance of the audit or review of the Company's financial statements and that are traditionally performed by the independent auditor. The Audit Committee believes that the provision of Audit-Related Services does not impair the independence of the auditor and is consistent with the SEC's rules on auditor independence. Management shall request Pre-Approval for those Audit-Related Services it reasonably believes will be required for the fiscal year for which such Pre-Approval is sought. The type of Audit-Related Services for which Pre-Approval may be sought includes, but is not limited to, the specific services identified on Appendix B attached to this Policy. Any request for Pre-Approval of Audit-Related Services will include a good faith estimate or range of the fees for the Audit-Related Services requested.


 

Tax Services

The type of "Tax Services" for which Pre-Approval may be subject includes, but is not limited to, the specific services identified on Appendix C attached to the Policy. The Committee believes that the independent auditor can provide Tax Services to the Company without impairing the auditor's independence, and the SEC has stated that the independent auditor may provide such services. Management shall request Pre-Approval for those Tax Services it reasonably believes will be required for the fiscal year for which such Pre-Approval is sought. In addition, the use of the independent auditor to provide services to any executive officer or director of the Company, in his or her individual capacity, where such services are paid for by the Company, shall be specifically pre-approved by the Committee. However, the Committee will not permit the retention of the independent auditor in connection with (1) a transaction initially recommended by the independent auditor, the sole business purpose of which may be tax avoidance and the tax treatment of which may not be supported in the Internal Revenue Code and related regulations; or (2) representing the Company before a tax court, district court or federal court of claims. Any request for Pre-Approval of Tax Services will include a good faith estimate or range of the fees for the Tax Services requested.

All Other Services

The Committee shall approve all other permissible non-audit services ("All Other Services") to be provided by the independent auditor. The Committee must believe that such services would not impair the independence of the Company's auditor and are consistent with the SEC's rules on auditor independence. Management shall request Pre-Approval for those All Other Services it reasonably believes will be required for the fiscal year for which such Pre-Approval is sought. Examples of such All Other Services for which Pre-Approval can be separately sought include: (1) risk management advisory services, e.g., assessment and testing of security infrastructure controls; and (2) treasury advisory services, e.g., review of check-clearing and float-management practices and recommendations regarding potential areas of improvement. Any request for Pre-Approval of All Other Services will a good faith estimate or range of the fees for the All Other Services requested.

De Minimums Exception to Pre-Approval Requirement

In its performance of its responsibilities under this Policy and subject to Section VI hereof, prior approval of certain All Other Services is not required by the Committee if: (1) such services involve no more than 5% of the amounts paid by the Company to the auditors during the fiscal year in which such All Other Services are provided; (2) such All Other Services were not identified by the Company to be All Other Services at the time of the engagement; and (3) such All Other Services are approved by the Committee prior to completion of the audit for such fiscal year.

Prohibited Services

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Policy, the Committee shall not approve the performance of the following prohibited services by the independent auditor to the Company:

(1)

Bookkeeping or other services related to the accounting records or financial statements of the Company;

 

(2)

Financial information systems design and implementation;

 

(3)

Appraisal or valuation services, fairness opinions, or contribution-in-kind reports;

 

(4)

Actuarial services;

 

(5)

(6)

Management functions or human resources;

 

(7)

Broker or dealer, investment adviser, or investment banking services;

 

(8)

Legal services; and

 

(9)

Expert services unrelated to the audit; provided, that, in accordance with SEC rules, the services listed in (1) through (5) above are not prohibited if the Committee concludes, in its reasonable judgment, that the results of these services will not be subject to audit procedures during an audit of the Company's financial statements. This conclusion must overcome the presumption that such prohibited services will be subject to audit procedures.

 

Considerations by the Audit Committee Regarding Non-Audit Services

For all Pre-Approval activities regarding All Other Services, the Committee or its designee will consider whether: (1) such services are consistent with the SEC's rules on auditor independence; (2) the independent auditor is best positioned to provide the most effective and efficient service, for reasons including its familiarity with the Company's business, management, culture, accounting systems, risk profile and other factors; and/or (3) the service might enhance the Company's ability to manage or control risk or improve audit quality.

Pre-Approval Procedures

All services to be provided by the independent auditor will be reviewed by the Chief Financial Officer and/or the Director of Finance. The Chief Financial Officer and/or Director of Finance will determine whether such services are included within the list of services for which Pre-Approval has been provided under this Policy. The Committee designates the Director of Finance or, if that position is vacant, the Chief Financial Officer to monitor the performance of all services provided by the independent auditor and to determine whether such services are in compliance with the Pre-Approvals given in accordance with this Policy. Such individual will report the results of such monitoring activities to the Committee on a periodic basis. The directives in the Section VII do not delegate any required duties or authority of the Committee to management or relieve the Committee from any of its responsibilities under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Reporting Procedures for
Auditing and Accounting, Internal Control Matters
And Illegal or Unethical Behavior
And No Retaliation Policy Background

The Company is committed to preparing and disclosing full and fair financial statements and to providing a workplace conducive to open discussion of its business practices. After the adoption of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and the proposal of significant changes to the listing requirements of The NADSAQ National Market, the Company has determined to formalize these commitments in the form of this policy along with a Code of Business Conduct and Ethics that is applicable to all directors, officers and employees of the Company (the "Code"). The purpose of this policy is to establish procedures for (1) the receipt, retention and treatment of reports ("Reports") received by the Company regarding accounting, internal accounting controls or auditing matters in connection with the Company, and of reports of any violations or potential violations of the Code or any laws or regulations, including without limitation, material violations of an applicable United States federal or state securities law, a material breach of fiduciary duty arising under United States federal or state law, or a similar material violation of any United States federal or state law by the Company or by any officer, director, employee or agent of the Company, and (2) the confidential, anonymous submission by Company officers and employees of concerns regarding questionable accounting or auditing matters or behavior that is questionable under the Code or the law, in each case, in connection with the Company ("Submissions").

Moreover, the purpose of this policy is to make it clear that Company policy is to comply with all applicable laws that protect employees against unlawful discrimination or retaliation by their employer as a result of their submitting any Reports or Submissions pursuant to this policy or their lawfully reporting information regarding, or their participating in, investigations involving corporate fraud or other violations by the Company or its agents of federal or state law.

The substance of any Report or Submission and the investigation and proceedings resulting there from shall be kept confidential, consistent with the need to conduct an adequate investigation and take appropriate corrective action.

 
 

3.

Any Reports or Submissions should include specific information and facts so that a proper investigation can be made.

recommend changes to any Company policies or procedures necessary or desirable to prevent further similar violations or behaviors.

 
 

6.

The evaluation process followed and/or actions taken by the Audit Committee or Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee and the Company in response to a Report or Submission shall be documented in the records of the Committee and provided to the General Counsel. The General Counsel shall retain copies or records of all Reports and Submissions and all related documentation for a period of not less than six years from the end of the fiscal year during which such Reports or Submissions were received, the first two years in an easily accessible place. In no event shall any such copies or records be destroyed without the prior approval of (i) the Chair of the Audit Committee and (ii) General Counsel, independent counsel to the Audit Committee and/or counsel to the Company, as appropriate, after considering the effect and applicability of the provisions of 18 U.S.C., Chapter 73, Sections 1512(c) and 1519, as enacted pursuant to the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002.

providing information, causing information to be provided, filing, causing to be filed, testifying, participating in a proceeding filed or about to be filed, or otherwise assisting in an investigation or proceeding regarding any conduct that the employee reasonably believes involves a violation of:

 
 
 

(i)

a federal criminal law relating to securities fraud, mail fraud, bank fraud, or wire, radio or television fraud;

 
 
 

(ii)

Any rule or regulation of the Securities and Exchange Commission; or

 
 
 

(iii)

Any provision of federal law relating to fraud against shareholders, where, with respect to investigations, such information or assistance is provided to or the investigation is being conducted by a federal regulatory agency, a member of Congress, or a person at the Company with supervisory or similar authority over the employee; or

 
 
 

filing of a Report or Submission covered by the Sarbanes-Oxley Act for violation of items 7 (i), (ii) and (iii) above, in accordance with these Procedures or pursuant to the Code.

 
 

8.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, employees who file reports, Reports or Submissions or provide evidence which they know to be false or without reasonable belief in the truth and accuracy of such information will not be protected by the above policy statement and may be subject to disciplinary action. In addition, except to the extent required by law, the Company does not intend this Policy to protect employees who violate the confidentiality obligations with regard to the Company's proprietary and trade secret information.
