VOTING SECURITIES

Voting of Proxy

A form of proxy for use at the annual meeting and a return envelope for the proxy are enclosed. A shareholder may revoke the authority granted by his or her execution of a proxy at any time before the effective exercise of such proxy by filing with the Secretary of the Company a written notice of revocation or a duly executed proxy bearing a later date, or by voting in person at the annual meeting. The Company’s Common Shares represented by executed and unrevoked proxies will be voted in accordance with the choice or instructions specified thereon. If no specifications are given, the shares represented thereby will be voted in favor of the matters as set forth in this proxy statement and the accompanying Notice of Annual Meeting of Shareholders, and in accordance with the best judgment of the Board of Directors on any other matters which may properly come before the annual meeting.

The specific proposals to be considered and acted upon at the Meeting are summarized in the accompanying Notice of Annual Meeting of Stockholders and are described in more detail in this Proxy Statement. On March 16, 2006, the record date for determination of stockholders entitled to notice of and to vote at the Meeting, 977,175,933 shares of the Company's common stock, par value $.005 (the "Common Stock"). Each stockholder is entitled to one vote for each share of Common Stock.

The attendance, in person or by proxy, of the holders of a majority of the outstanding voting shares of Common Stock entitled to vote at the Meeting is necessary to constitute a quorum. A vote of the holders of a majority of the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock, present, in person or represented by proxy at the Meeting and entitled to vote at the Meeting, will be required for the approval of each of the amendments to the Company's certificate of incorporation (the "Certificate of Incorporation"), the election of directors, and election of the Company’s accountants.

Although the Company is a Delaware corporation, under Section 2115 of the California Corporations Code, certain provisions of the California Corporation Code apply to the Company because of the residence of the Company's stockholders and the extent of its business operations and assets in California. The provisions pertaining to certain requirements of cumulative voting apply to the Company.

Stockholders have cumulative voting rights when voting for directors. Accordingly, any stockholder may multiply the number of votes he or she is entitled to vote by the number of directors to be elected and allocate votes among the candidates in any manner. However, no voting stockholder may cumulative votes unless the name(s) of the director candidate or candidates have been placed in nomination prior to the voting and the stockholder, prior to the voting, has given notice at the Meeting of its intention to cumulate its shares. If any one stockholder has given a notice of its intention to cumulate votes then all stockholders may cumulate their votes for director candidates in nomination. Stockholders may exercise such cumulative voting rights, either in person or by proxy after providing the proper notice. The five director nominees receiving the highest number of votes will be elected.

The Board intends to vote proxies equally for the five nominees unless otherwise instructed on the Proxy Card. If you do not wish your votes to be voted for particular nominees, please identify the exceptions in the designated place on the Proxy Card. If at the time of the Meeting one or more of the nominees have become unavailable to serve, votes represented by Proxies will be voted for the remaining nominees and for any substitute nominee or nominees designated by the Board. Directors elected at the Meeting will hold office until the next Annual Meeting of Stockholders or until their successors have been elected and qualified.

All votes will be tabulated by the inspector of election appointed for the Meeting, who will separately tabulate affirmative and negative votes, abstentions and broker non-votes. Abstentions and broker non-votes are counted as present for purposes of determining the presence or absence of a quorum for the transaction of business. Abstentions will be counted towards the tabulations of votes cast on proposals presented to the stockholders and will have the same effect as negative votes except in regard to the election of directors. Broker non-votes will not be counted towards the tabulations of votes cast on proposals presented to the stockholders.

Revocability of Proxy

If the enclosed form of Proxy is properly signed and returned, the shares represented thereby will be voted at the Meeting in accordance with the instructions specified thereon.

You may revoke or change your Proxy at any time before the Meeting by filing with the Secretary of the Company at the Company's principal executive offices at 9449 Balboa Avenue, Suite 210, San Diego, California 92123, a notice of revocation or another signed Proxy with a later date.
