STOCK OPTIONS
In November 2002,  the Company  enacted a stock option plan (the "2002 Plan") to
provide additional incentives to selected employees,  directors and consultants.
Two million shares were  authorized for grant.  The purchase price of the common
stock  subject to each  Incentive  Stock  Option shall not be less than the fair
market  value  or in the  case of a grant  of an  incentive  stock  option  to a
principal  shareholder,  not less  than  110% of the fair  market  value of such
common  stock at the time each option is granted.  The 2002 Plan  terminates  in
November 2012. The options are fully-vested when granted and are exercisable for
a period of ten years  from the date of grant and are  subject  to  cancellation
upon  termination  of  employment.  The Company has granted  options to purchase
1,010,000  shares and 300,000  shares with  exercise  prices of $0.50 and $0.25,
respectively.  The market price at the date of grant was $0.12. At September 30,
2011 and 2010, 450,000 stock options are available for grant.
 
On January 6, 2005,  the Company  enacted the 2005 Stock  Option/Stock  Issuance
Plan  (the  "2005  Plan").  The 2005 Plan  provides  for the  issuance  of up to
10,000,000  shares of common stock to our  directors,  officers,  employees  and
consultants  in the form of stock options and shares of common  stock.  The 2005
Plan has two  separate  components:  the  option  grant  program  and the  stock
issuance program.
 
Grants under the option grant program may be structured as  installment  options
which become exercisable for vested shares over the optionee's period of service
or as immediately  exercisable options for unvested shares which will be subject
to repurchase by the Company,  at the option exercise price paid per share, upon
the  optionee's  termination  of service prior to vesting in those  shares.  All
option grants must have an exercise  price not less than 100% of the fair market
value of the option shares on the grant date.
 
The stock issuance  program allows eligible persons to purchase shares of common
stock at fair market  value or at a discount of up to 15% of fair market  value.
The  shares  may be  fully  vested  when  issued  or may vest  over  time as the
recipient provides services or as specified performance objectives are attained.
In addition, shares of common stock may be issued as bonus awards in recognition
of services rendered, without any cash outlay required of the recipient.
 
Upon stock option exercise, the Company issues new shares of common stock.
 
The  following  table  summarizes  stock option  activity  under the above stock
option plans:

The fair value of stock  options  awarded  were  estimated  at the date of grant
using the  Black-Scholes  option-pricing  model.  The  expected  option term was
estimated based upon the contractual  term of the underlying  stock option.  The
expected  volatility of the Company's  stock price was based upon the historical
daily changes in the price of the Company's common stock. The risk-free interest
rate was based upon the current yield on U.S. Treasury  securities having a term
similar to the expected option term. Dividend yield is estimated at zero because
the Company does not  anticipate  paying  dividends in the  foreseeable  future.
There were no options issued during the years ended  September 30, 2011 and 2010
that required valuation.

At September 30, 2011,  all stock options are vested,  and there is no remaining
unrecognized compensation expense. The intrinsic value of options is zero as all
options had an exercise  price above the closing price of the stock at September
30, 2011.
 
Stock based  compensation  expense was $35,744 and  $163,744 for the years ended
September  30,  2011 and 2010,  respectively,  which is  included in general and
administrative expenses in the accompanying statements of operations.
