proxy statement (the "Proxy Statement") discussing the proposals which will be
presented for your consideration at the Annual Meeting.
Since the mailing of the Proxy Statement, the Company has entered into an
agreement with Strategic Stock Surveillance, LLC to assist the Company in the
solicitation of proxies for the Annual Meeting. Under the agreement, the Company

Your vote is important, regardless of the number of shares you own. We encourage
