o
Critical additional working capital
o
Funding to support the company’s business plans
o
Funding to commercialize the company’s technology
o
Debt reduction

 

 

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

 

 

Stockholders are encouraged to vote and submit proxies in advance of the Special Meeting by mail, Internet or telephone as early as possible to avoid processing delays and ensure their votes are counted. Simply follow the instructions found on the accompanying proxy voting instruction form.

 

Our board of directors has determined that the matters to be considered at the Special Meeting are in the best interests of the company and its stockholders. For the reasons set forth in the proxy statement, our board unanimously recommends a vote “FOR” each matter to be considered.

 

You will also find a link to an electronic copy of our Proxy Statement and Annual Report, which we suggest you read when making your voting decisions. A copy of each has already been delivered to you.

Sincerely,
