On April 30, 2009, Milton Silva-Craig, the Companys President and Chief Executive Officer and Timothy Rogers, the
Companys Chief Financial Officer, entered into separation and release agreements (the Separation Agreements) with
the Company whereby their terminations will become effective upon completion of the wind up activities associated with
the stockholder approved Plan of Complete Liquidation and Dissolution of the Company (the Plan) and the successful
transfer to a Trustee, expected May 15, 2009, but no later than May 31, 2009. In an effort to reduce future payroll
expenses beyond April 30, 2009, Messrs. Silva-Craig and Rogers entered into the Separation Agreements whereby they will
no longer receive compensation after April 30, 2009 and in turn received onetime payments consistent with the severance
terms of their existing employment agreements. Mr. Silva-Craigs employment agreement provided termination payments of
(i) his annual base salary ($275,000), (ii) general health insurance benefits for a period of one year ($20,609) and
(iii) a one-time termination payment equal to 50% of his annual base salary ($137,500). Mr. Rogers employment
agreement provided termination payments of (i) his base salary for a period of six months ($87,500) and (ii) general
health insurance benefits for a period of six months ($2,345).
The Separation Agreements were approved by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors.
