Capital Stock
 
Each share of the Company's convertible preferred stock is convertible into one share of the Company's common stock.  Convertible preferred stockholders will be entitled to a dividend, based upon a formula, when and if any dividends are declared on the Company's common stock.  The convertible preferred stock is redeemable, at the option of the Company, at $7.50 per share.  The shares contain a liquidation preference provision entitling the holder to receive payments equaling $5.00 per share.
 
The voting rights of the common stockholders and preferred stockholders are based upon the number of shares of convertible preferred stock outstanding.  The Company's Restated Certificate of Incorporation provides that the Board of Directors is to consist of one class of Directors if there are less than 600,000 shares Convertible Preferred Stock outstanding.  As of December 31, 2011, the number of preferred shares outstanding was 293,057; accordingly, the Board of Directors to be elected at the 2012 annual shareholders' meeting will consist of one class of Directors elected by the holders of common stock and convertible preferred stock voting together as one class on a share for share basis.
 
At December 31, 2011, there were 434,723 shares of common stock reserved for conversion of preferred stock and for the exercise of vested stock options and convertible notes.
 
In March 2011, the Company privately placed 4,500,000 shares of common stock at $0.50 per share for total proceeds of $2,250,000.
