NOTE F - STOCK OPTIONS AND WARRANTS

On March 1, 2007, our stockholders approved the 2007 Omnibus Equity Compensation Plan (the “2007 Plan”) which combined shares that were issued and outstanding under the Company’s 2004 Stock Option Plan with shares to be made available for issuance under the 2007 Plan. At each of the Company’s Annual Meetings held on May 8, 2008, June 17, 2010, and May 25, 2011, the Company’s stockholders voted to amend the 2007 Plan by increasing the number of authorized shares available for issuance by 1,000,000 shares, 9,790,150 shares and 7,000,000 shares, respectively, thus providing a total of 20,800,000 shares for issuance under the 2007 Plan.  As of June 30, 2011, we had approximately 19,331,408 total options outstanding under the 2007 Plan, consisting of 19,231,408 options issued to employees and non-employee directors and 100,000 options issued to a consultant and 1,468,592 shares available for future option grants. Such outstanding options vest over various periods up to three years and expire on various dates through 2021.

The fair value of each option grant is estimated at the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option valuation model with the following weighted average assumptions for the 1st Half 2011 and 1st Half 2010:

   
1st Half 2011

Expected stock price volatility
    295 %     168 %  
Risk free interest rate
    2.24 %     2.70 %  
Dividend yield
    0 %     0 %  

Stock options totaling 6,850,000 were granted by the Board in January 2011 which was approved by the stockholders at the Annual Meeting held on May 25, 2011. Expected stock price volatility is determined using historical volatility of the Company's stock.  The average expected life was estimated based on historical employee exercise behavior.
