pursue another opportunity and not due to any disagreement with the Company on
any matter relating to the Company's operations, policies or practices.

services rendered to the Company as Board members or as members of any committee
of the Board. There is no arrangement or understanding between either Mr. Pierre

director. Furthermore, there are no transactions between either Mr. Pierre and
