Red Oak Partners beneficially owns 217,107 shares of Common Stock, representing 2.89% of all the outstanding shares of Common Stock.  The Funds are each controlled by Red Oak Partners.  Therefore, Red Oak Partners may be deemed to beneficially own (i) the 129,961 shares of Common Stock held by Red Oak Fund, and (ii) the 87,146 shares of Common Stock held by Pinnacle Fund.


Mr. Sandberg beneficially owns 217,107 shares of Common Stock, representing 2.89% of all the outstanding shares of Common Stock.  Mr. Sandberg, as the managing member of Red Oak Partners may be deemed to beneficially own the 217,107 shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by Red Oak Partners through the Funds.


Red Oak Fund may be deemed to beneficially own 129,961 shares of Common Stock, representing 1.73% of all the outstanding shares of Common Stock.  Pinnacle Fund may be deemed to beneficially own 87,146 shares of Common Stock, representing 1.16% of all the outstanding shares of Common Stock.


(b)

Each of Red Oak Partners and Mr. Sandberg may be deemed to have shared voting and dispositive power with respect to (i) the 129,961 shares of Common Stock held by Red Oak Fund, and (ii) the 87,146 shares of Common Stock held by Pinnacle Fund.  No Fund shares with any other Fund voting or dispositive power with respect to the shares such Fund beneficially owns.
