NOTE 12                               DEFERRED COMPENSATION/NQDC

The Company has adopted an unfunded Non-Qualified Deferred Compensation (NQDC) plan to compensate our Chief Executive Officer.  Under this plan, the Company is not required to reserve funds for compensation, and is only obligated to pay compensation when and if funds are available.  Any amounts due but unpaid automatically accrue to deferred compensation. The plan has the option to be renewed annually at the discretion of the Company. While unfunded and non-recourse, for compliance with GAAP this is disclosed as an accrued expense on the balance sheet.  On April 28, 2011, the Company issued two million (2,000,000) shares of common stock to our Chief Executive Officer  to reduce the aggregate amount of deferred compensation owed to him by $180,000.  The shares were valued at the closing market price of our common stock on the date of issuance.  As of June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the outstanding balance of the NQDC plan is $712,474 and $838,474, respectively.

In 2007, 2008, and 2009, our Chief Executive Officer was awarded restricted stock bonuses for deferring accrued salary. The value of common shares were based on the market closing price on the day of issuance, and the value of preferred shares were valued via a valuation model generated by an independent valuation expert, as follows:
