Beneficial ownership is determined according to the rules of the SEC, which generally means that a person is deemed to have beneficial ownership of a security if he, she, or it possesses sole or shared voting or investment power over that security. Each director, executive officer, or 5% or more beneficial stockholder has furnished the information respecting beneficial ownership. All securities of the same class beneficially owned by a person, regardless of the form of such beneficial ownership, are aggregated in calculating the number of shares beneficially owned by such person. Shares owned by an entity are generally deemed beneficially owned by each executive officer, director, or beneficial or of record owner of 10% or more of the issued common stock of the entity. Stock held by a person in a trust or other entity organized by a person to circumvent the beneficial ownership attribution rules are deemed owned by the person creating such trust or other entity.\n\n \n\nApplicable ownership percentages are based on 301,182,983 shares of common stock. In computing the number of shares of common stock beneficially owned and the percentage ownership of a person, we deemed the holder of options to beneficially own the common stock purchasable on exercise of the options, without respect to when the granted options may vest. We considered shares issuable under options held by a particular person or group as outstanding for the calculation of percentages of ownership of that particular person or group. However, we did not deem these shares outstanding for the purpose of computing the percentage ownership of any other person.\n\n \n\n**Changes in Control**\n\n \n\nTo the best of our knowledge there are no present arrangements or pledges of our securities that may result in a change in control."}
