the issuance of your common stock upon the exercise of outstanding, privately placed

private placement purchasers as these shares appear to have been offered privately.

upon the exercise of outstanding, privately placed warrants would be exclusively to
third parties which did not purchase the privately placed warrants from you in prior
private placements. For guidance, refer to Securities Act Sections Compliance and
Disclosure Interpretations 134.02.
