(the “Company”) entered into a stipulated settlement with Delta Networks, Inc. (“Delta”) in July 2006, with respect to a lawsuit initiated in June 2004 by Delta, which alleged various breaches of written contract claims arising out of alleged purchase orders.  Delta was a supplier to Mariner Networks, Inc., a former subsidiary of the Company that was discontinued in the fiscal year ended March 31, 2002.  In order to fully set forth the terms and commitments between the parties with respect to the settlement, the Company and Delta have entered into a Settlement Agreement effective as of August 15, 2006.  In full and final settlement of the lawsuit, the Company agreed to pay Delta $125,000 on or before October 20, 2006, pay an additional $350,000 thereafter in equal monthly installments over three years, and issue to Delta the number of shares of the Company’s common stock which comprise a value of $212,500 based on the closing sales price of the Company’s common stock on the day of issuance of the shares.  The Company also agreed to file a registration statement with the SEC with respect to the shares issued pursuant to the Settlement Agreement.  The foregoing description of the terms of the Settlement Agreement does not purport to be a complete explanation of the parties’ rights and obligations under the Settlement Agreement.  Such description is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Settlement Agreement, a copy of which is attached as an exhibit hereto.
