 thereunder, by issuing a series of material misrepresentations to the market between May 29, 2003 and January 6, 2005, thereby artificially inflating the price of Taser securities. Throughout the Class Period, as alleged in the Complaint, defendants issued numerous statements which described the Company's statements on the safety of its products. The Complaint alleges that these statements were materially false and misleading because they failed to disclose and/or misrepresented the following adverse facts, among others: (1) that the Company's Taser M26 and X26 are unsafe, (2) that defendants knew or recklessly disregarded the fact that the Company's Taser M26 and X26 have safety concerns, (3) that defendants knew or recklessly disregarded the fact that the Company's M26's and X26's severe safety concerns were likely to limit the long term marketability of the Taser M26 and X26, and (4) that the defendants failed to warn the public of the potential harm of the Company's M26 and X26, in order to preserve the Company's profits from the "stun" guns. E[acute accent]On January 6, 2005, after the market closed, the Company issued a press release entitled "Taser International, Inc. Cooperates with SEC Informal Inquiry." In the press release, the Company announced that the Securities and Exchange Commission is beginning an inquiry into claims and statements made by Taser on the safety of its stun guns. Further, as stated in the press release, the SEC is also looking into an end of year order totaling $1.5 million. E[acute accent]If you purchased, converted, exchanged, or otherwise acquired Taser common stock during the Class Period, you may request that the Court appoint you as lead plaintiff by March 10, 2005. A lead plaintiff is a representative party that acts on behalf of other class members in directing the litigation An action brought in court to enforce a particular right. The act or process of bringing a lawsuit in and of itself; a judicial contest; any dispute.

. In order to be appointed lead plaintiff, the Court must determine that the class member's claim is typical of other class members, and that the class member will adequately represent the class. Under certain circumstances, one or more class members may together serve as "lead plaintiff." Your ability to share in any recovery is not, however, affected by the decision whether or not to serve as a lead plaintiff. You may retain Lovell Stewart Halebian LLP, or other counsel of your choice, to serve as your counsel in this action.
