NOTE 6 - STOCK OPTIONS AND WARRANTS

General Option Information

On July 6, 2011, the Board of Directors cancelled the “2004 Non-Employee Directors’ Stock Incentive Plan” and approved the “Directors’ 2011 Stock Option and Award Plan”.  The Company also maintains the 2005 Stock Option and Award Plan, which was previously approved by shareholders, for the purpose of granting option awards to its employees and consultants.   Under the 2011 Plan, a total of 3,300,000 shares are authorized for issuance.  Each non-executive director was granted options to purchase 300,000 shares at that day’s closing price, $0.17.  The options vest over three years as follows: 100,000 on June 30, 2012, 100,000 on June 30, 2013 and 100,000 on June 30, 2014.  These options expire two years after vesting.  The Director who serves as Audit Chair during the fiscal year will receive an additional 50,000 options per year under the same terms.  CEO Timothy L. Ryan was granted 200,000 options per year under the same terms, under the 2005 Stock Option and Award Plan.

At the August 1, 2012 Board of Directors’ meeting, Brian W. Hesje assumed the role of Audit Committee Chairman. For his service as the Audit Committee Chairman, the Board of Directors approved a grant of 300,000 stock options based on the closing market price on the issuance date of $0.26 per share. Under the Directors’ 2011 Stock Option and Award Plan, 150,000 of the options will vest on June 30, 2013 and 150,000 will vest on June 30, 2014.

We estimated the fair value of the stock options at the grant date based on the following range of weighted average assumptions:

Risk free interest rate
    0.41 %
to
  0.75 %
Expected life
    3.0  
to
  5.0 years
Expected volatility
    72.93 %
to
  84.38 %
Dividend yield
    0.00 %
