The Special Committee received an opinion from Evans & amp; Evans, Inc.

The Special Committee, after considering the price offered to shareholders, the financial condition of the Company, the limited ability for TPS shareholders to dispose of their shares, Tao's level of ownership as a shareholder of the Company, the fairness opinion, and a number of other factors, concluded that the consideration is fair to the minority shareholders. After considering these and other factors relevant to the Amalgamation, the Special Committee resolved that the Board submit the Amalgamation to a vote of the shareholders at a special meeting of shareholders and, in furtherance thereof, authorized the Company to enter into the acquisition agreement and to recommend to the shareholders to approve the special resolution in respect of the Amalgamation (the "Amalgamation Resolution").
