ITEM 5.02

Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangement of Certain Officers

A. Effective December 31, 2009, the Board of Directors acted, in each case with the conflicted director abstaining, to compensate key Executive Officers of registrant for past services completed, by the issuance of stock options to acquire registrant’s common stock..

These options granted are vested immediately, have a ten year term, or through December 31, 2019, and are exercisable at an exercise price of $0.0114 per share, which was the closing stock bid price for the registrant’s common stock on December 31, 2009.

These Options were granted for past services to the following key Executive Officers as bonus compensation for the periods indicated on December 31, 2009

Joseph Vicente

 

2009

 

60,732,250

The value of the options so issued cannot be calculated as of this date, since they have been issued at the closing bid price of the registrant’s common stock on the date of grant, December 31, 2009.

The Options provide for cashless exercise, permitting the recipient to surrender any Options whose exercise price are below the market price for the Company’s stock, and received a credit for the difference between each surrendered option’s exercise price and the market price for the Company’s common stock on the date of Option surrender. Such credit is then applied against payment of the exercise price for other Options turned in for exercise.

 The number of shares of common stock which may be purchased upon exercise of these Options, and the exercise price, is subject to adjustment in the event of stock splits, stock dividends, merger, reorganization or recapitalization.


B. Effective December 31, 2009, the Board of Directors acted, in each case with the conflicted director abstaining, to provide incentive compensation to the registrant’s key Executive Officers for 2010, by the issuance of unvested stock options to acquire registrant’s common stock which vest on December 31, 2010, provided the key employee is then employed by the Company.


 These incentive options were issued to the following key Executive Officers:

Joseph Vicente

 

December 31, 2010

 

60,732,250


The value of the options so issued cannot be calculated as of this date, since they have been issued at the closing bid price of the registrant’s common stock on the date of grant, December 31, 2009, and will not vest until December 31, 2010.

The Options provide for cashless exercise, permitting the recipient to surrender any Options, once vested, whose exercise price are below the market price for the Company’s stock, and received a credit for the difference between each surrendered option’s exercise price and the market price for the Company’s common stock on the date of Option surrender. Such credit is then applied against payment of the exercise price for other Options turned in for exercise.

The number of shares of common stock which may be purchased upon exercise of these Options, and the exercise price, is subject to adjustment in the event of stock splits, stock dividends, merger, reorganization or recapitalization.
