Wood, and W. Michael Cooper, the selling shareholders of the Registrant’s wholly-owned subsidiary, RedBlack Communications, Inc. (formerly named Innovative Solutions Consulting, Inc.) (the “Sellers”) to amend the terms of the stock purchase agreement dated September 12, 2007 whereby the Registrant acquired all of the issued and outstanding shares of the common stock of RedBlack Communications, Inc . (the “Stock Purchase Agreement”).
          The material terms of the Amendment Agreement are as follows:

  o   The parties further agreed that subject to the terms and conditions contained in the Amendment Agreement, including timely payment of the final payment of $1,020,000, all rights and obligations of the parties under the Stock Purchase Agreement shall cease and be of no further force and effect except for certain of the post-closing covenants, representations and warranties and other obligations with respect to tax matters, and indemnification clauses, as specified in the Amendment Agreement.
 
  o   The terms and conditions of those certain Confidentiality, Non-Disclosure, Non-Compete, Non-Disparagement and Assignment Agreements by and between the Registrant, RedBlack Communications, Inc. and each of the Sellers, dated September 28, 2007 remain in full force and effect and nothing in the Amendment Agreement affects, limits or otherwise alters or amends the terms of such agreements.
