Page 2 of 2

*EXPLANATION OF NON-GAAP RESULTS

In addition to disclosing financial results in accordance with United States (U.S.) generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), this earnings release contains non-GAAP financial measures that we believe are helpful in understanding and comparing our past financial performance and our future results. These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP, and the financial results calculated in accordance with GAAP and reconciliations from these results should be carefully evaluated. Management believes the non-GAAP financial measures are appropriate for period to period comparisons in our budget, planning and evaluation processes, and to show the reader how our performance compares to other periods. Our non-GAAP financial measures reflect adjustments based on the following items, as well as the related income tax effects: Non-GAAP net income and losses, and related per share amounts as reported for Q1 2012 exclude the effects of all option related expenses, stock award expense, Convertible Note interest expense, effects caused by amortization of discounts, on Convertible Notes, and the change of the fair value of financial derivatives.
