Consulting Services

On July 15, 2010, the Company entered into an agreement with a third party to provide various consulting services for the Company in connection with an anticipated filing of a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission.  Under the terms of the agreement, which was amended in November 2010 to clarify certain provisions, the consultant is to receive $40,000 cash and 800,000 warrants to purchase the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $0.625 per share with a contractual term of 5 years.  The warrants are contingently issuable upon the earlier (a) twenty business days after notification by the SEC that any registration statement filed on behalf of the Company has been declared effective or (b) upon a change of control of the Company or (c) upon notification by the Company that it decided not to continue retaining the services of the consultant.  The warrants are fully vested upon issuance. 

On March 23, 2011, in relation to the agreement entered into with a third party to provide various consulting services for the Company, the Company issued 800,000 warrants to purchase common stock at an exercise price of $0.625 per share with a term of 5 years. The warrants were fully vested at the date of grant and the Company recognized an expense of $73,768 equal to the grant date fair value of the warrants using the following assumptions: volatility of 68%; risk-free interest rate of 2.07%; and expected term of 5 years.  The fair value of the warrants was determined using the Black-Scholes option valuation model.
