EFFECTIVE TIME


The reincorporation and other changes will be effective in the State of Nevada and the State of Florida on the last to occur of the following (the “Effective Time”):


·

the date and time specified in articles of merger meeting the requirements of Nevada Law, filed with the Secretary of State of Nevada; or

·

the first day after the 20th day after the date of mailing of this Information Statement meeting the requirements of Section 14(c) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Rule 14c-101 of the Securities Act of 1934.


QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS


This Information Statement is first being sent to stockholders on or about February 1, 2015. The following questions and answers are intended to respond to frequently asked questions concerning the matters described in this Information Statement. These questions do not, and are not intended to, address all the questions that may be important to you. You should carefully read the entire Information Statement, as well as its appendices and the documents incorporated by reference in this Information Statement.


Q:  WHAT IS THE PURPOSE OF THIS INFORMATION STATEMENT?


A:  This Information Statement is being furnished to you pursuant to Section 14 of the Exchange Act to notify our stockholders of certain corporate actions taken by a majority of our stockholders that will become effective 20 days after mailing this Information Statement.


Q:  WHY IS THE COMPANY REINCORPORATING IN NEVADA?


A:  We believe that the reincorporation in Nevada will give us more flexibility and simplicity in various corporate transactions.  Nevada has adopted a corporation law that includes by statute many concepts created by judicial rulings in Florida and other jurisdictions and provides additional rights in connection with the issuance and redemption of stock.


Q:  WHY IS THE COMPANY AUTHORIZING THE DIRECTORS TO CHANGE OUR CORPORATE NAME?


A:  We are authorizing our board of directors to change our corporate name to any name selected by the board of directors to provide flexibility in the event of a change in the principle business of the Company.  No change in our business is presently contemplated. However, in the event of any such change, our board of directors will have the authority to select a new name that reflects our principal business.


Q:  WHY ISN’T THE COMPANY HOLDING A MEETING OF STOCKHOLDERS TO APPROVE THE REINCORPORATION?


A:  The board of directors has already approved the reincorporation and has received the written consent of our stockholders who represent a majority of our outstanding voting shares. Under the Nevada Revised Statutes and our Florida Articles of Incorporation this transaction may be approved by the written consent of a majority of the shares entitled to vote, but only after the board of directors have authorized the action. Because a majority of our voting shares have approved the transaction discussed herein, a formal stockholders meeting is not necessary and represents a substantial and avoidable expense.


Q:  WHAT ARE THE PRINCIPAL FEATURES OF OUR NEVADA ARTICLES OF INCORPORATION?


A:  Our Nevada Articles of Incorporation will include the following:


·

authority of the board of directors to change our corporate name to any name selected by the board;

·

establish committees of the board of directors that will comply, when required, with the NYSE MKT listing standards and other rules of the SEC and NYSE MKT;

·

increase the number of shares of capital stock we are authorized to issue;

·

authorize indemnification agreements with directors and senior officers; and

·

adopt a serial board of directors and other measures that are intended to be anti-takeover provisions.

PRE 14C5th Page of 58TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 5th

Q:  HOW WILL THE REINCORPORATION AFFECT OUR OWNERS, OFFICERS, DIRECTORS AND EMPLOYEES?


A:  Our officers, directors and employees will not change and our business operations will continue at the same locations, with the same employees and with the same assets.


Q:  HOW WILL THE ACTIONS DESCRIBED HERE AFFECT MY SECURITIES AND PERCENTAGE OF OWNERSHIP OF THE COMPANY?


A:  The reincorporation will change the number of shares you own. However, your percentage of the total number of outstanding shares will not change.


Q:  WILL THE AUTHORIZATION OF ADDITIONAL SHARES OF COMMON STOCK DILUTE MY EQUITY PERCENTAGE, VOTING PERCENTAGE OR PRIORITY OF MY COMMON STOCK IN THE COMPANY?


A:  Your voting percentage and equity interest in the Company is not currently changed by the authorization of the company to issue additional shares of common stock.  However, the additional shares may cause a dilution of your ownership and voting interest in the future.


Q:  HOW DO I EXCHANGE FLORIDA CERTIFICATES FOR NEVADA CERTIFICATES?


A:  Enclosed with this Information Statement as Exhibit E is a letter of transmittal and instructions for surrendering certificates representing your shares. If you are a stockholder of record, you should complete the letter of transmittal and send it with certificates representing your shares to the address set forth in the letter. Upon surrender of a certificate for cancellation with a duly executed letter of transmittal, our transfer agent will issue a new certificate representing the number of shares you are entitled as soon as practical after the Effective Time of the merger. If you hold your stock in street name in a brokerage account, your broker will manage the certificate change.


Q:  WHAT HAPPENS IF I DO NOT SURRENDER MY COMPANY CERTIFICATES?


A:  You are not required to surrender your certificates representing company shares in order to receive a certificate with our new name. Until you receive your new certificates you will continue to receive notice of or vote at stockholder meetings and receive dividends or other distributions for your shares.


Q:  WHAT IF I HAVE LOST MY COMPANY CERTIFICATES?


A:  If you have lost your company certificates, you should contact our transfer agent as soon as possible to have a new certificate issued. You may be required to post a bond or other security to reimburse us for any damages or costs if the certificate is later delivered for conversion. Our transfer agent is:

15500 Roosevelt Boulevard, Suite 301

Clearwater, Florida 33760

Tel: 727-289-0010 Fax: 727-289-0069


Q:  CAN I REQUIRE THE COMPANY TO PURCHASE MY STOCK?


A:  Yes. Florida law provides for a right of appraisal or redemption in connection with the reincorporation described in this Information Statement.  See “Rights of Dissenting Shareholders.


Q:  WHO WILL PAY THE COSTS OF REINCORPORATION?


A:  We will pay all of the costs of the reincorporation in Nevada, including distributing this Information Statement. You will only be required to pay our transfer agent the cost of exchanging certificates representing shares of the company for Nevada certificates. We may also pay brokerage firms and other custodians for their reasonable expenses for forwarding information materials to the beneficial owners of our common stock. We do not anticipate contracting for other services in connection with the reincorporation.

PRE 14C6th Page of 58TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 6th

Q:  WILL I HAVE TO PAY TAXES ON THE NEW CERTIFICATES?


A:  We believe that the reincorporation is not a taxable event and that you will be entitled to the same basis in your shares of common stock when issued under the new name. EVERYONE’S TAX SITUATION IS DIFFERENT AND YOU SHOULD CONSULT WITH YOUR PERSONAL TAX ADVISOR REGARDING THE TAX EFFECT OF THE REINCORPORATION.


REASONS FOR AUTHORITY TO CHANGE OUR NAME


Our board of directors may authorize, without further shareholder approval, a change of our corporate name to any name selected by the board of directors. We have no present plans, understandings or agreements, and we are not engaged in any negotiations that will involve a name change. However, in the event of any substantial business change, our board of directors will have the authority to select a new name that reflects our principal business.

Immediately upon the grant of any award, the number of shares that may be issued or optioned under the plan will be increased such that the total number of shares issuable under the plan and reserved for issuance upon exercise of outstanding options, warrants or conversion of shares of preferred stock will equal 10% of the total number of issued and outstanding shares. Such increase in the number of shares subject to the plan shall occur without the necessity of any further corporate action of any kind or character.


Limitations on Directors’ and Officers’ Liability


Our directors and officers are indemnified as provided by the Nevada Revised Statutes, as amended and our articles of incorporation.


Employment Agreements


Currently, we have no existing written employment agreement.


REINCORPORATION IN NEVADA


The following discussion summarizes certain aspects of our reincorporation in Nevada.  This summary does not include all of the provisions of the Plan and Agreement of Merger between the Company and, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit A, or the Articles of Incorporation of the Nevada Company, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit B. Copies of the Florida bylaws and the Nevada bylaws of the Nevada Company are available for inspection at our principal office and we will send copies to stockholders upon request.


Principal Reasons for Reincorporation


We believe that the reincorporation will provide a greater measure of flexibility and simplicity in corporate governance than is available under Florida law and will increase the marketability of our securities.  Nevada has adopted a modern code governing the formation and operation of corporations.  It includes by statute many of the concepts developed judicially in Florida.  In addition, the Nevada law provides for greater flexibility in raising capital and other corporate transactions.  Nevada imposes no franchise taxes or corporate income taxes on corporations that are incorporated in Nevada.


Principal Features of the Reincorporation


The reincorporation will be effected by the merger of the Company with and into the Nevada Company.  The Nevada Company is the surviving entity.  The reincorporation will become effective on the Effective Date.


On the Effective Date, (i) each of our stockholders as of the record date will be entitled to receive one share of Nevada Company common stock for each 500 shares of our common stock they owned on the record date, with fractional shares being rounded up to the next whole share and the number of additional whole shares such that each stockholder will own at least five shares, (ii) each share of the Nevada Company common stock owned by the Company will be canceled and resume the status of authorized and unissued Nevada Company common stock, and (iii) the Company will cease its corporate existence in the State of Florida.


The Articles of Incorporation and bylaws of the Nevada Company are significantly different from the Articles of Incorporation and bylaws of the Company.  Your rights as shareholders will be substantially affected by the reincorporation by, among other things, the exchange ratio and the differences between the laws of the State of Florida, which govern the Company, and the laws of the State of Nevada, which govern the Nevada Company.  See the information under “Significant Differences between the Florida Company and the Nevada Company” for a summary of the differences between the laws of the State of Florida and the laws of the State of Nevada.


- 8 -


PRE 14C9th Page of 58TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 9th

The board of directors and officers of the Nevada Company will consist of the persons who are our directors and officers prior to the reincorporation.  Our daily business operations will continue at the principal executive offices at 3001 North Rocky Point East, Suite 200, Tampa Florida 33607.


How to Exchange Company Certificates for the Nevada Company Certificates


Enclosed are (i) a form letter of transmittal and (ii) instructions for surrender of your certificates representing our common stock in exchange for certificates representing shares of the Nevada Company common stock.  Upon surrender of a certificate representing our common stock to the Nevada Company, together with a duly executed letter of transmittal and the necessary issuance fees, the Nevada Company will issue, as soon as practicable, a certificate representing that number of shares of the Nevada Company you are entitled to receive.


If you own our shares through a nominee or in a brokerage account, you do not have a certificate to submit for exchange.  Usually, your nominee or broker will submit certificates representing our shares for exchange on your behalf.  Since we believe there have been widespread sales of our stock without actual delivery of certificates, it is possible that your nominee or broker may not have certificates representing all of the shares owned by its customers.  We recommend that you contact your nominee or broker and request that a certificate be issued to you so that you may submit it for exchange with the enclosed letter of transmittal.  This will ensure that there are actually shares of the Nevada Company in your name on the books and records of the Nevada Company.  After the exchange, you may transfer the shares of the Nevada Company back into the name of your broker or nominee.


You are not required to surrender your certificates representing our common stock for certificates representing shares of the Nevada Company. Dividends and other distributions declared by the Nevada Company after the Effective Date with respect to common stock and payable to holders of record thereof after the Effective Date will be paid to the holders of certificates representing the Nevada Company common stock and to the holders of unsurrendered certificates representing shares of the Company.  In addition, holders of unsurrendered certificates representing shares of our common stock will be entitled to notice of or to vote at any meetings of the shareholders of the Nevada Company until they surrender the certificate representing Company common stock.


Capitalization


Our authorized capital on the date of this Information Statement consisted of 100,000,000 shares of common stock, $0.0001 par value, and 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock, $0.0001 par value.  On the date of this Information Statement there were 35,980,000 shares of our common stock and 1,000,000 shares of our preferred stock outstanding.  The authorized capital of the Nevada Company consists of 500,000,000 shares of capital stock divided into 480,000,000 shares of common stock, $0.001 par value per share, and 20,000,000 shares of preferred stock, $0.001 par value per share.  The board of directors of the Nevada Company has adopted designations, rights and preferences for a series of preferred stock that duplicates the outstanding series of preferred stock of the Florida Company. As a result of the reincorporation, the Nevada Company will have outstanding approximately 71,960 shares of common stock, subject only to insignificant differences relating to the elimination of fractional shares, and 1,000,000 shares of preferred stock.  In addition, the Nevada Company will reserve 10,000,000 shares of common stock for issuance under the 2015 Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan. Accordingly, the board of directors of the Nevada Company will have available approximately 469,928,040 shares of common stock and 19,000,000 shares of preferred stock which are authorized but presently unissued and unreserved.  The reincorporation will not affect our total stockholder equity or total capitalization.


The board of directors of the Nevada Company may authorize, without further shareholder approval, the issuance of such shares of common stock or preferred stock to such persons, for such consideration, and upon such terms as the board of directors determines.  Such issuance could result in a significant dilution of the voting rights and the stockholders’ equity, of then existing shareholders.


There are no present plans, understandings or agreements, and we are not engaged in any negotiations that will involve the issuance of preferred stock except to replace the outstanding 1,000,000 shares of preferred stock of the Florida Company.  However, the board of directors believes it prudent to have shares of preferred stock available for such corporate purposes as the board of directors may from time to time deem necessary and advisable including, without limitation, acquisitions, the raising of additional capital and assurance of flexibility of action in the future.


Issuance of additional authorized common stock or preferred stock may have the effect of deterring or thwarting persons seeking to take control of the Nevada Company through a tender offer, proxy fight or otherwise or to bring about removal of incumbent management or a corporate transaction such as merger.  For example, the issuance of common stock or preferred stock could be used to deter or prevent such a change of control through dilution of stock ownership of persons seeking to take control or by rendering a transaction proposed by such persons more difficult.  See “Defenses Against Hostile Takeovers.”

Significant Differences between the Florida Company and the Nevada Company


The Company was incorporated under the laws of the State of Florida and the Nevada Company is incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada.  Those stockholders that tender their certificates representing the shares of our common stock for exchange will become shareholders of the Nevada Company.  Their rights as shareholders will be governed by the Nevada Revised Statutes and the Articles of Incorporation and bylaws of the Nevada Company rather than the General Corporation Law of Florida and the Florida Articles of Incorporation and bylaws.  The Nevada Articles of Incorporation and bylaws are significantly different from the Florida Articles of Incorporation.


The corporate statutes of Nevada and Florida have certain differences, summarized below.  This summary is not intended to be complete, and is qualified by reference to the full text of, and decisions interpreting, Florida law and Nevada law.


Classified Board of Directors.  Both Florida and Nevada law permit corporations to classify their board of directors so that less than all of the directors are elected each year to overlapping terms.  Unlike the Florida Company, the Nevada Company has classified boards consisting of three classes, elected to three-year terms.  As a result of the reincorporation, our directors will become directors of the Nevada Company and assigned to classes to make the number of directors in each class as nearly equal as possible.


Removal of Directors.  Under Florida law, members of a classified board of directors may be removed by the shareholders without or without cause.  Nevada law provides that any or all directors may be removed by the vote of two-thirds of the voting interests entitled to vote for the election of directors.  Nevada does not distinguish between removal of directors with or without cause.  The reincorporation may make it more difficult for the shareholders of the Nevada Company to remove a member of the board of directors.


Special Meetings of Stockholders.  Florida law permits special meetings of stockholders to be called by the board of directors or by any other person authorized in the Articles of Incorporation or bylaws to call a special stockholder meeting.  Nevada law does not address the manner in which special meetings of stockholders may be called but permits corporations to determine the manner in which meetings are called in their bylaws.  The Articles of Incorporation and bylaws of the Nevada Company provide that special meetings of the stockholders may be called only by the board of directors or a committee of the board of directors that is delegated the power to call special meetings by the board of directors.  The reincorporation will make it more difficult for the shareholders of the Nevada Company to call a special meeting of the stockholders.


Special Meetings Pursuant to Petition of Stockholders.  Florida law provides that a director or a stockholder of a corporation may apply to the circuit court of the county where the corporation’s principal office is located if the corporation fails to hold an annual meeting for the election of directors or there is no written consent to elect directors in lieu of an annual meeting taken, in both cases for a period of thirty (30) days after the date designated for the annual meeting or if there is no such date designated, within 13 months after the last annual meeting.  Nevada law is more restrictive.  Under Nevada law shareholders having not less than 15% of the voting interest may petition the district court to order a meeting for the election of directors if a corporation fails to call a meeting for that purpose within 18 months after the last meeting at which directors were elected.  The reincorporation may make it more difficult for the shareholders of the Nevada Company to require that an annual meeting be held without the consent of the board of directors.


Cumulative Voting.  Cumulative voting for directors entitles stockholders to cast a number of votes that is equal to the number of voting shares held multiplied by the number of directors to be elected.  Stockholders may cast all such votes either for one nominee or distribute such votes among up to as many candidates as there are positions to be filled.  Cumulative voting may enable a minority stockholder or group of stockholders to elect at least one representative to the board of directors where such stockholders would not otherwise be able to elect any directors.  Both Florida and Nevada law permit cumulative voting if provided for in the certificate or articles of incorporation and pursuant to specified procedures.  Neither the Articles of Incorporation of the Company nor the Articles of Incorporation of the Nevada Company provide for cumulative voting.  The reincorporation does not change the rights of the shareholders to cumulate their votes.


Vacancies.  Under Florida law, vacancies on the board of directors may be filled by the affirmative vote of a majority of the remaining directors then in office, even if less than a quorum.  Any director so appointed will hold office for the remainder of the full term of the class of directors in which the vacancy occurred.  Similarly, Nevada law provides that vacancies may be filled by a majority of the remaining directors, though less than a quorum, unless the articles of incorporation provide otherwise.  The bylaws of both the Company and the Nevada Company address the election of persons to fill vacancies on the board of directors in the same manner.

Indemnification of Officers and Directors and Advancement of Expenses.  Florida and Nevada have substantially similar provisions regarding indemnification by a corporation of its officers, directors, employees and agents.  Florida and Nevada law differ in their provisions for advancement of expenses incurred by an officer or director in defending a civil or criminal action, suit or proceeding.  Florida law provides that expenses incurred by an officer or director in defending any civil, criminal, administrative or investigative action, suit or proceeding may be paid by the corporation in advance of the final disposition of the action, suit or proceeding upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of the director or officer to repay the amount if it is ultimately determined that he or she is not entitled to be indemnified by the corporation.  A Florida corporation has the discretion to decide whether or not to advance expenses, unless its Articles of Incorporation or bylaws provides for mandatory advancement.  Nevada law differs in two respects: first, Nevada law applies to advance of expenses incurred by both officers and directors, and second, under Nevada law, the articles of incorporation, bylaws or an agreement made by the corporation may provide that the corporation must pay advancements of expenses in advance of the final disposition of the action, suit or proceedings upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of the director or officer to repay the amount if it is ultimately determined that he or she is not entitled to be indemnified by the corporation.  There will be a difference in stockholders’ rights with respect to this issue because the bylaws of the Nevada Company provide for the mandatory advancement of expenses of directors and officers.


Limitation on Personal Liability of Directors.  Florida law permits a corporation to adopt provisions limiting or eliminating the liability of a director to a company and its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, provided that such liability does not arise from certain proscribed conduct, including breach of the duty of loyalty, acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law or liability to the corporation based on unlawful dividends or distributions or improper personal benefit.  The Articles of Incorporation of the Company excluded director liability to the maximum extent allowed by Florida law.  Nevada law permits, and the Nevada Company has adopted, a broader exclusion of liability of directors to the corporation and its shareholders, providing for an exclusion of all monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty unless they arise from act or omissions which involve intentional misconduct, fraud or a knowing violation of law or payments of dividends or distributions in excess of the amount allowed.  The reincorporation will result in the elimination of any liability of a director for a breach of the duty of loyalty unless arising from intentional misconduct, fraud, or a knowing violation of law.


Dividends.  Florida law is more restrictive than Nevada law with respect to when dividends may be paid.  Under the Florida law, unless further restricted in the Articles of Incorporation, a corporation may declare and pay dividends, out of surplus, or if no surplus exists, out of net profits for the fiscal year in which the dividend is declared and/or the preceding fiscal year (provided that the amount of capital of the corporation is not less than the amount of the capital represented by the issued and outstanding stock of all classes having a preference upon the distribution of assets).  In addition, the Florida Law provides that a corporation may redeem or repurchase its shares only if the capital of the corporation is not impaired and such redemption or repurchase would not impair the capital of the corporation.  Nevada law provides that no distribution (including dividends on, or redemption or repurchases of, shares of capital stock) may be made if, after giving effect to such distribution, the corporation would not be able to pay its debts as they become due in the usual course of business, or, except as specifically permitted by the articles of incorporation, the corporation’s total assets would be less than the sum of its total liabilities plus the amount that would be needed at the time of a dissolution to satisfy the preferential rights of preferred stockholders.  The reincorporation makes it possible for the Nevada Company to pay dividends or other distributions that would not be payable under Florida law.


Restrictions on Business Combinations.  Both Florida and Nevada law contain provisions restricting the ability of a corporation to engage in business combinations with an interested stockholder.  Under Florida law, a corporation which is listed on a national securities exchange, included for quotation on the Nasdaq Stock Market or held of record by more than 2,000 stockholders, is not permitted to engage in a business combination with any interested stockholder for a three-year period following the time such stockholder became an interested stockholder, unless (i) the transaction resulting in a person becoming an interested stockholder, or the business combination, is approved by the board of directors of the corporation before the person becomes an interested stockholder; (ii) the interested stockholder acquires 85% or more of the outstanding voting stock of the corporation in the same transaction that makes it an interested stockholder (excluding shares owned by persons who are both officers and directors of the corporation, and shares held by certain employee stock ownership plans); or (iii) on or after the date the person becomes an interested stockholder, the business combination is approved by the corporation’s board of directors and by the holders of at least 662/3% of the corporation’s outstanding voting stock at an annual or special meeting (and not by written consent), excluding shares owned by the interested stockholder.  Florida law defines “interested stockholder” generally as a person who owns 15% or more of the outstanding shares of a corporation’s voting stock.


- 11 -


PRE 14C12th Page of 58TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 12th

Nevada law regulates business combinations more stringently.  First, an “interested stockholder” is defined as a beneficial owner (directly or indirectly) of ten percent (10%) or more of the voting power of the outstanding shares of the corporation.  Second, the three-year moratorium can be lifted only by advance approval by a corporation’s board of directors.  Finally, after the three-year period, combinations with “interested stockholders” remain prohibited unless (i) they are approved by the board of directors, the disinterested stockholders or a majority of the outstanding voting power not beneficially owned by the interested party, or (ii) the interested stockholders satisfy certain fair value requirements.  As in Florida, a Nevada corporation may opt-out of the statute with appropriate provisions in its articles of incorporation.


The Nevada Company has opted out of the applicable statutes and the more stringent requirements of Nevada law apply to mergers and combinations after the Effective Date of the reincorporation.  The Florida Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation does not opt out of stringent requirements of Florida law that apply to mergers and combinations.


Limitations on Controlling Shareholders.  Nevada law contains a provision that limits the voting rights of a person that acquires or makes an offer to acquire a controlling interest in a Nevada corporation.  Under the provisions of Nevada law, a person acquiring or making an offer to acquire more than 20% of the voting power in a corporation will have only such voting rights as are granted by a resolution of the shareholders adopted at a special or annual meeting.  The controlling person is not entitled to vote on the resolution granting voting rights to the controlling interest.  The person acquiring a controlling interest may request a meeting of the shareholders be called for this purpose and, if the board of directors fails to call the meeting or the controlling person is not accorded full voting rights, the corporation must redeem the controlling shares at the average price paid for them.  Florida does not have a similar provision and the reincorporation may make it more difficult for a person to acquire control of the Nevada Company through acquisition of a majority of the shares issued.


Amendment to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws.  Both Florida and Nevada law require the approval of the holders of a majority of all outstanding shares entitled to vote to approve proposed amendments to a corporation’s certificate or articles of incorporation.  Both Florida and Nevada law also provide that in addition to the vote of the shareholders, the vote of a majority of the outstanding shares of a class may be required to amend the Articles of Incorporation or articles of incorporation.  Neither state requires shareholder approval for the board of directors of a corporation to fix the voting powers, designation, preferences, limitations, restrictions and rights of a class of stock provided that the corporation’s organizational documents grant such power to its board of directors.  Both Florida and Nevada law permit the number of authorized shares of any such class of stock to be increased or decreased (but not below the number of shares then outstanding) by the board of directors unless otherwise provided in the articles or Articles of Incorporation or resolution adopted pursuant to the articles or Articles of Incorporation, respectively.  


Actions by Written Consent of Stockholders.  Both Florida and Nevada law provide that, unless the articles or Articles of Incorporation provides otherwise, any action required or permitted to be taken at a meeting of the shareholders may be taken without a meeting if the holders of outstanding stock having at least the minimum number of votes that would be necessary to authorize or take such action at a meeting at which all shares entitled to vote consents to the action in writing.  Florida law requires the corporation to give prompt notice of the taking of corporate action without a meeting by less than unanimous written consent to those stockholders who did not consent in writing.  Although not required by Nevada law, the Nevada Company’s bylaws require prompt notice to all shareholders of any action taken by less than unanimous written consent.


Stockholder Vote for Mergers and Other Corporation Reorganizations.  Both jurisdictions require authorization by an absolute majority of the outstanding voting rights, as well as approval by the board of directors, of the terms of a merger or a sale of substantially all of the assets of the corporation.  Neither Florida nor Nevada law require a shareholder vote of the surviving corporation in a merger (unless the corporation provides otherwise in its Articles of Incorporation) if: (a) the merger agreement does not amend the existing Articles of Incorporation of the surviving corporation; (b) each share of stock of the surviving corporation outstanding immediately before the effective date of the merger is an identical outstanding share after the merger; and (c) either no shares of common stock of the surviving corporation and no shares, securities or obligations convertible into such stock are to be issued or delivered under the plan of merger, or the authorized unissued shares or shares of common stock of the surviving corporation to be issued or delivered under the plan of merger plus those initially issuable upon conversion of any other shares, securities or obligations to be issued or delivered under such plan do not exceed twenty percent (20%) of the shares of common stock of such constituent corporation outstanding immediately prior to the effective date of the merger.

2015 OMNIBUS EQUITY INCENTIVE PLAN


The Board of Directors of the Company and the owners of a majority of the outstanding voting stock have approved the 2015 Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan. The purpose of the Plan is to maintain the ability of the Company and its subsidiaries to attract and retain highly qualified and experienced directors, officers and consultants and to give such directors, officers and consultants a continued proprietary interest in the success of the Company and its subsidiaries.  The Plan is posted on our website at http://www.onthemovesystems.com/ and is available to any stockholder by request to the Company.  A brief summary of the provisions of the 2015 Plan is set forth below and the complete text of said Sections is attached as Exhibit C.


General Provisions of the Plan


The purpose of the 2015 Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan (“Plan”) is to maintain the ability of the Nevada corporation (the “Company”) and its subsidiaries to attract and retain highly qualified and experienced directors, employees and consultants and to give such directors, employees and consultants a continued proprietary interest in the success of the Company and its subsidiaries.  In addition the Plan is intended to encourage ownership of common stock, $.001 par value (“Common Stock”), of the Company by the directors, employees and consultants of the Company and its Affiliates (as defined below) and to provide increased incentive for such persons to render services and to exert maximum effort for the success of the Company’s business.  The Plan provides eligible employees and consultants the opportunity to participate in the enhancement of shareholder value by the grants of warrants, options, restricted common or convertible preferred stock, unrestricted common or convertible preferred stock and other awards under the Plan and to have their bonuses and/or consulting fees payable in warrants, restricted common or convertible preferred stock, unrestricted common or convertible preferred stock and other awards, or any combination thereof.  In addition, the Company expects that the Plan will further strengthen the identification of the directors, employees and consultants with the stockholders.  Certain options and warrants to be granted under the Plan are intended to qualify as Incentive Stock Options (“ISOs”) pursuant to Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (“Code”), while other options and warrants and preferred stock granted under the Plan will be nonqualified options or warrants which are not intended to qualify as ISOs (“Nonqualified Options”), either or both as provided in the agreements evidencing the options or warrants described and shares of preferred stock.  Employees, consultants and directors who participate or become eligible to participate in the Plan from time to time are referred to collectively herein as “Participants”.  As used in the Plan, the term “Affiliates” means any “parent corporation” of the Company and any “subsidiary corporation” of the Company within the meaning of Code Sections 424(e) and (f), respectively.


Immediately upon the grant of any award, the number of shares that may be issued or optioned under the plan will be increased such that the total number of shares issuable under the plan and reserved for issuance upon exercise of outstanding options, warrants or conversion of shares of preferred stock will equal 10% of the total number of issued and outstanding shares. Such increase in the number of shares subject to the plan shall occur without the necessity of any further corporate action of any kind or character.


The Plan shall be administered by the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”).  When acting in such capacity the Board is herein referred to as the “Committee,” which shall also designate the Chairman of the Committee.  If the Company is governed by Rule 16b-3 promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“Commission”) pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“Exchange Act”), no director shall serve as a member of the Committee unless he or she is a “disinterested person” within the meaning of such Rule 16b-3.


Stock Options


The Committee shall have sole and absolute discretionary authority (i) to determine, authorize, and designate those persons pursuant to the Plan who are to receive warrants, options, restricted common or convertible preferred stock, or unrestricted common or convertible preferred stock under the Plan, (ii) to determine the number of shares of Common Stock to be covered by such grant or such options or warrants and the terms thereof, (iii) to determine the type of Common Stock granted: restricted common or convertible preferred stock, unrestricted common or convertible preferred stock or a combination of restricted and unrestricted common or convertible preferred stock, and (iv) to determine the type of option or warrant granted: ISO, Nonqualified Option or a combination of ISO and Nonqualified Options.  The Committee shall thereupon grant options or warrants in accordance with such determinations as evidenced by a written option or warrant agreement.  Subject to the express provisions of the Plan, the Committee shall have discretionary authority to prescribe, amend and rescind rules and regulations relating to the Plan, to interpret the Plan, to prescribe and amend the terms of the option or warrant agreements (which need not be identical) and to make all other determinations deemed necessary or advisable for the administration of the Plan.


The fair market value (determined in accordance with the Plan at the time the option or warrant is granted) of the Common Stock with respect to which ISOs may be exercisable for the first time by any Participant during any calendar year under all such plans of the Company and its Affiliates shall not exceed $1,000,000.

PRE 14C14th Page of 58TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 14th

The Committee shall promptly notify the Participant of the option or warrant grant and a written agreement shall promptly be executed and delivered by and on behalf of the Company and the Participant, provided that the option or warrant grant shall expire if a written agreement is not signed by said Participant (or his agent or attorney) and returned to the Company within 60 days from date of receipt by the Participant of such agreement.  The date of grant shall be the date the option or warrant is actually granted by the Committee, even though the written agreement may be executed and delivered by the Company and the Participant after that date.  Each option or warrant agreement shall specify the period for which the option or warrant thereunder is granted (which in no event shall exceed ten years from the date of grant) and shall provide that the option or warrant shall expire at the end of such period.  If the original term of an option or warrant is less than ten years from the date of grant, the option or warrant may be amended prior to its expiration, with the approval of the Committee and the Participant, to extend the term so that the term as amended is not more than ten years from the date of grant.  However, in the case of an ISO granted to an individual who, at the time of grant, owns stock possessing more than 10 percent of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock of the Company or its Affiliate (“Ten Percent Stockholder”), such period shall not exceed five years from the date of grant.


The purchase price of each share of Common Stock subject to each option or warrant granted pursuant to the Plan shall be determined by the Committee at the time the option or warrant is granted and, in the case of ISOs, shall not be less than 100% of the fair market value of a share of Common Stock on the date the option or warrant is granted, as determined by the Committee.  In the case of an ISO granted to a Ten Percent Stockholder, the option or warrant price shall not be less than 110% of the fair market value of a share of Common Stock on the date the option or warrant is granted.  The purchase price of each share of Common Stock subject to a Nonqualified Option or Warrant under the Plan shall be determined by the Committee prior to granting the option or warrant.  The Committee shall set the purchase price for each share subject to a Nonqualified Option or Warrant at either the fair market value of each share on the date the option or warrant is granted, or at such other price as the Committee in its sole discretion shall determine.


At the time a determination of the fair market value of a share of Common Stock is required to be made hereunder, the determination of its fair market value shall be made by the Committee in such manner as it deems appropriate.


Restricted Stock


Awards of restricted stock under the Plan shall be subject to all the applicable provisions of the Plan, including the following terms and conditions, and to such other terms and conditions not inconsistent therewith, as the Committee shall determine:


(a)  Awards of restricted stock may be in addition to or in lieu of option or warrant grants.  Awards may be conditioned on the attainment of particular performance goals based on criteria established by the Committee at the time of each award of restricted stock. During a period set forth in the agreement (the “Restriction Period”), the recipient shall not be permitted to sell, transfer, pledge, or otherwise encumber the shares of restricted stock; except that such shares may be used, if the agreement permits, to pay the option or warrant price pursuant to any option or warrant granted under the Plan, provided an equal number of shares delivered to the Participant shall carry the same restrictions as the shares so used.  Shares of restricted stock shall become free of all restrictions if during the Restriction Period, (i) the recipient dies, (ii) the recipient’s directorship, employment, or consultancy terminates by reason of permanent disability, as determined by the Committee, (iii) the recipient retires after attaining both 59 1/2 years of age and five years of continuous service with the Company and/or a division or subsidiary, or (iv) if provided in the agreement, there is a “change in control” of the Company (as defined in such agreement). The Committee may require medical evidence of permanent disability, including medical examinations by physicians selected by it.  Unless and to the extent otherwise provided in the agreement, shares of restricted stock shall be forfeited and revert to the Company upon the recipient’s termination of directorship, employment or consultancy during the Restriction Period for any reason other than death, permanent disability, as determined by the Committee, retirement after attaining both 59 1/2 years of age and five years of continuous service with the Company and/or a subsidiary or division, or, to the extent provided in the agreement, a “change in control” of the Company (as defined in such agreement), except to the extent the Committee, in its sole discretion, finds that such forfeiture might not be in the best interests of the Company and, therefore, waives all or part of the application of this provision to the restricted stock held by such recipient.  Certificates for restricted stock shall be registered in the name of the recipient but shall be imprinted with the appropriate legend and returned to the Company by the recipient, together with a stock power endorsed in blank by the recipient.  The recipient shall be entitled to vote shares of restricted stock and shall be entitled to all dividends paid thereon, except that dividends paid in Common Stock or other property shall also be subject to the same restrictions.


(b)  Restricted Stock shall become free of the foregoing restrictions upon expiration of the applicable Restriction Period and the Company shall then deliver to the recipient Common Stock certificates evidencing such stock.  Restricted stock and any Common Stock received upon the expiration of the restriction period shall be subject to such other transfer restrictions and/or legend requirements as are specified in the applicable agreement.

Bonuses and Past Salaries and Fees Payable in Unrestricted Stock


(a)  In lieu of cash bonuses otherwise payable under the Company’s or applicable division’s or subsidiary’s compensation practices to employees and consultants eligible to participate in the Plan, the Committee, in its sole discretion, may determine that such bonuses shall be payable in unrestricted Common Stock or partly in unrestricted Common Stock and partly in cash.  Such bonuses shall be in consideration of services previously performed and as an incentive toward future services and shall consist of shares of unrestricted Common Stock subject to such terms as the Committee may determine in its sole discretion.  The number of shares of unrestricted Common Stock payable in lieu of a bonus otherwise payable shall be determined by dividing such bonus amount by the fair market value of one share of Common Stock on the date the bonus is payable, with fair market value determined as of such date.


(b)  In lieu of salaries and fees otherwise payable by the Company to employees, attorneys and consultants eligible to participate in the Plan that were incurred for services rendered during, prior or after the year of 2014, the Committee, in its sole discretion, may determine that such unpaid salaries and fees shall be payable in unrestricted Common Stock or partly in unrestricted Common Stock and partly in cash.  Such awards shall be in consideration of services previously performed and as an incentive toward future services and shall consist of shares of unrestricted Common Stock subject to such terms as the Committee may determine in its sole discretion.  The number of shares of unrestricted Common Stock payable in lieu of a salaries and fees otherwise payable shall be determined by dividing each calendar month’s of unpaid salary or fee amount by the average trading value of the Common Stock for the calendar month during which the subject services were provided.


Relinquishment of Options


The Committee, in granting options or warrants hereunder, shall have discretion to determine whether or not options or warrants shall include a right of relinquishment as hereinafter provided.  The Committee shall also have discretion to determine whether an option or warrant agreement evidencing an option or warrant initially granted by the Committee without a right of relinquishment shall be amended or supplemented to include such a right of relinquishment.  Neither the Committee nor the Company shall be under any obligation or incur any liability to any person by reason of the Committee’s refusal to grant or include a right of relinquishment in any option or warrant granted hereunder or in any option or warrant agreement evidencing the same.  Subject to the Committee’s determination in any case that the grant by it of a right of relinquishment is consistent, any option or warrant granted under the Plan, and the option or warrant agreement evidencing such option or warrant, may provide.


The Committee shall have sole discretion to consent to or disapprove, and neither the Committee nor the Company shall be under any liability by reason of the Committee’s disapproval of, any election by a holder of preferred stock to relinquish such preferred stock in whole or in part as provided in Paragraph 7(a), except that no such consent to or approval of a relinquishment shall be required under the following circumstances.  Each Participant who is subject to the short-swing profits recapture provisions of Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act (“Covered Participant”) shall not be entitled to receive shares of Common Stock when options or warrants are relinquished during any window period commencing on the third business day following the Company’s release of a quarterly or annual summary statement of sales and earnings and ending on the twelfth business day following such release (“Window Period”).  A Covered Participant shall be entitled to receive shares of Common Stock upon the relinquishment of options or warrants outside a Window Period.


No right of relinquishment may be exercised after the initial award of any option or warrant containing, or the amendment or supplementation of any existing option or warrant agreement adding the right of relinquishment, unless such right of relinquishment is effective upon the Participant’s death, disability or termination of his relationship with the Company for a reason other than “for cause.”


Grant of Convertible Preferred Stock


The Committee shall have sole and absolute discretionary authority (i) to determine, authorize, and designate those persons pursuant to the Plan who are to receive restricted preferred stock, or unrestricted preferred stock under the Plan, and (ii) to determine the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued upon conversion of such shares of preferred stock and the terms thereof.  The Committee shall thereupon grant shares of preferred stock in accordance with such determinations as evidenced by a written preferred stock designation.  Subject to the express provisions of the Plan, the Committee shall have discretionary authority to prescribe, amend and rescind rules and regulations relating to the Plan, to interpret the Plan, to prescribe and amend the terms of the preferred stock designation  (which need not be identical) and to make all other determinations deemed necessary or advisable for the administration of the Plan.

Each series of preferred stock granted under the Plan shall be evidenced by a designation in the form for filing with the Secretary of State of the state of incorporation of the Company, containing such terms as approved by the Committee, which shall be subject to the following express terms and conditions and to such other terms and conditions as the Committee may deem appropriate:


(i)  The number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of each share of preferred stock granted pursuant to the Plan shall be determined by the Committee at the time the preferred stock is granted.  The conversion ration may be determined by reference to the fair market value of each share of Common Stock on the date the preferred stock is granted, or at such other price as the Committee in its sole discretion shall determine.


(ii)  The Committee may provide in the preferred stock agreement that an preferred stock may be converted in whole, immediately, or is to be convertible in increments.  In addition, the Committee may provide that the conversion of all or part of an preferred stock is subject to specified performance by the Participant.


(iii)  Shares of preferred stock shall be converted in the manner specified in the preferred stock designation.  The notice of conversion shall specify the address to which the certificates for such shares are to be mailed.  A Participant shall be deemed to be a stockholder with respect to shares covered by preferred stock on the date specified in the preferred stock agreement.  As promptly as practicable, the Company shall deliver to the Participant or other holder of the warrant, certificates for the number of shares with respect to which such preferred stock has been so converted, issued in the holder’s name or such other name as holder directs; provided, however, that such delivery shall be deemed effected for all purposes when a stock transfer agent of the Company shall have deposited such certificates with a carrier for overnight delivery, addressed to the holder at the address specified pursuant to this Section 6(d).


(iv)  Awards of restricted preferred stock under the Plan shall be subject to all the applicable provisions of the Plan, including the following terms and conditions, and to such other terms and conditions not inconsistent therewith, as the Committee shall determine:


(A)  Awards of restricted preferred stock may be in addition to or in lieu of preferred stock grants.  Awards may be conditioned on the attainment of particular performance goals based on criteria established by the Committee at the time of each award of restricted preferred stock. During a period set forth in the agreement (the “Restriction Period”), the recipient shall not be permitted to sell, transfer, pledge, or otherwise encumber the shares of restricted preferred stock.  Shares of restricted preferred stock shall become free of all restrictions if during the Restriction Period, (i) the recipient dies, (ii) the recipient’s directorship, employment, or consultancy terminates by reason of permanent disability, as determined by the Committee, (iii) the recipient retires after attaining both 59 1/2 years of age and five years of continuous service with the Company and/or a division or subsidiary, or (iv) if provided in the agreement, there is a “change in control” of the Company (as defined in such agreement). The Committee may require medical evidence of permanent disability, including medical examinations by physicians selected by it.  Unless and to the extent otherwise provided in the agreement, shares of restricted preferred stock shall be forfeited and revert to the Company upon the recipient’s termination of directorship, employment or consultancy during the Restriction Period for any reason other than death, permanent disability, as determined by the Committee, retirement after attaining both 59 1/2 years of age and five years of continuous service with the Company and/or a subsidiary or division, or, to the extent provided in the agreement, a “change in control” of the Company (as defined in such agreement), except to the extent the Committee, in its sole discretion, finds that such forfeiture might not be in the best interests of the Company and, therefore, waives all or part of the application of this provision to the restricted preferred stock held by such recipient.  Certificates for restricted preferred stock shall be registered in the name of the recipient but shall be imprinted with the appropriate legend and returned to the Company by the recipient, together with a preferred stock power endorsed in blank by the recipient.  The recipient shall be entitled to vote shares of restricted preferred stock and shall be entitled to all dividends paid thereon, except that dividends paid in Common Stock or other property shall also be subject to the same restrictions.


(B)  Restricted preferred stock shall become free of the foregoing restrictions upon expiration of the applicable Restriction Period and the Company shall then deliver to the recipient Common Stock certificates evidencing such stock.  Restricted preferred stock and any Common Stock received upon the expiration of the restriction period shall be subject to such other transfer restrictions and/or legend requirements as are specified in the applicable agreement.


(v)  No Participant shall have any rights as a stockholder with respect to shares covered by an preferred stock until the preferred stock is converted as provided in clause (b)(iii) above.

Amendments or Termination


The Board may amend, alter or discontinue the Plan, but no amendment or alteration shall be made which would impair the rights of any Participant, without his consent, under any option, warrant or preferred stock theretofore granted.

Unless the options, warrants, shares of convertible preferred stock and shares of Common Stock covered by the Plan have been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Company has determined that such registration is unnecessary, each person acquiring or exercising an option or warrant under the Plan or converting shares of preferred stock may be required by the Company to give a representation in writing that he or she is acquiring such option or warrant or such shares for his own account for investment and not with a view to, or for sale in connection with, the distribution of any part thereof.


Tax Information


(a)  The Company may make such provisions as it may deem appropriate for the withholding of any taxes which it determines is required in connection with any options, warrants or preferred stock granted under the Plan.


(b)  Notwithstanding the terms of Paragraph 11 (a), any Participant may pay all or any portion of the taxes required to be withheld by the Company or paid by him or her in connection with the exercise of a nonqualified option or warrant or conversion of preferred stock by electing to have the Company withhold shares of Common Stock, or by delivering previously owned shares of Common Stock, having a fair market value, determined in accordance with Paragraph 5(d)(ii), equal to the amount required to be withheld or paid.  A Participant must make the foregoing election on or before the date that the amount of tax to be withheld is determined (“Tax Date”).  All such elections are irrevocable and subject to disapproval by the Committee.  Elections by Covered Participants are subject to the following additional restrictions: (i) such election may not be made within six months of the grant of an option or warrant, provided that this limitation shall not apply in the event of death or disability, and (ii) such election must be made either six months or more prior to the Tax Date or in a Window Period.  Where the Tax Date in respect of an option or warrant is deferred until six months after exercise and the Covered Participant elects share withholding, the full amount of shares of Common Stock will be issued or transferred to him upon exercise of the option or warrant, but he or she shall be unconditionally obligated to tender back to the Company the number of shares necessary to discharge the Company’s withholding obligation or his estimated tax obligation on the Tax Date.


Replacement of Options, Warrants and Preferred Stock


The Committee from time to time may permit a Participant under the Plan to surrender for cancellation any unexercised outstanding option or warrant or unconverted Preferred stock and receive from the Company in exchange an option, warrant or preferred stock for such number of shares of Common Stock as may be designated by the Committee.  The Committee may, with the


- 17 -


PRE 14C18th Page of 58TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 18th

consent of the holder of any outstanding option, warrant or preferred stock, amend such option, warrant or preferred stock, including reducing the exercise price of any option or warrant to not less than the fair market value of the Common Stock at the time of the amendment, increasing the conversion ratio of any preferred stock and extending the exercise or conversion term of and warrant, option or preferred stock.


Effectiveness and Expiration of Plan


The Plan shall be effective on the date the Board adopts the Plan.  The Plan shall expire ten years after the date the Board approves the Plan and thereafter no option, warrant or preferred stock shall be granted pursuant to the Plan.


Non-Exclusivity of the Plan


Neither the adoption by the Board nor the submission of the Plan to the stockholders of the Company for approval shall be construed as creating any limitations on the power of the Board to adopt such other incentive arrangements as it may deem desirable, including without limitation, the granting of restricted stock or stock options, warrants or preferred stock otherwise than under the Plan, and such arrangements may be either generally applicable or applicable only in specific cases.


Governing Law


The Plan and any agreements hereunder shall be interpreted and construed in accordance with the laws of the state of incorporation of the Company and applicable federal law.


Cashless Exercise


The Committee also may allow cashless exercises as permitted under Federal Reserve Board’s Regulation T, subject to applicable securities law restrictions or by any other means which the Committee determines to be consistent with the Plan’s purpose and applicable law.  The proceeds from such a payment shall be added to the general funds of the Company and shall be used for general corporate purposes.


REASONS FOR THE INCREASE IN AUTHORIZED SHARES

Overview


Our board of directors may authorize, without further shareholder approval, the issuance of shares of preferred stock or common stock to such persons, for such consideration, and upon such terms as the board of directors determines. Such issuance could result in a significant dilution of the voting rights and the stockholders’ equity, of then existing shareholders.


There are no present plans, understandings or agreements, and we are not engaged in any negotiations that will involve the issuance of capital stock. However, the board of directors believes it prudent to have shares of common stock and preferred stock available for such corporate purposes as the board of directors may from time to time deem necessary and advisable including, without limitation, acquisitions, the raising of additional capital and assurance of flexibility of action in the future.


Defense against hostile takeovers


The additional shares of capital stock authorized by our Nevada articles of incorporation can be used to minimize the possibility of a sudden acquisition of control of the company which has not been negotiated with and approved by our board of directors.  (See Defenses Against Hostile Takeovers.”)


Potential dilution


If the board of directors issues an additional class of voting for less than fair value, the value of your interest in the company will be diluted.  The company has no present intention to issue any additional class of voting securities.


Change in seniority of securities


The outstanding shares of Series A preferred stock are senior to the outstanding shares of common stock and the preferred shares have priority over the common shares in liquidation.  The common stock and preferred stock vote as a single class.

COMPLIANCE WITH SECTION 16(A) OF THE EXCHANGE ACT

 

Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act, as amended, requires our executive officers, directors and persons who beneficially own more than 10% of our common stock to file reports of their beneficial ownership and changes in ownership (Forms 3, 4 and 5, and any amendment thereto) with the SEC. Executive officers, directors, and greater-than-ten percent holders are required to furnish us with copies of all Section 16(a) forms they file. Based solely on a review of the Forms 3 and 4 and amendments thereto furnished pursuant to Rule 16a-3(c) during its most recent fiscal year and Form 5 and amendments thereto furnished with respect to our most recent fiscal year, and any written representations to the effect that no Form 5 is required.

 

To the best of our knowledge, no person who, at any time during such fiscal year, was a director, officer, or beneficial owner of more than 10% of our common stock, or any other reporting person (as defined in Item 405 of Regulation S-K) (“reporting person”), failed to file on a timely basis, as disclosed in the above Forms, reports required by Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act during the most recent fiscal year or prior fiscal year: 2011.


Outstanding Equity Awards at Fiscal Year-End.


There were no outstanding equity awards at our most recent fiscal year end.


DEFENSES AGAINST HOSTILE TAKEOVERS


The following discussion summarizes the reasons for, and the operation and effects of, certain provisions in our Nevada articles of incorporation which management has identified as potentially having an anti-takeover effect.


The anti-takeover provisions of our Nevada articles of incorporation are designed to minimize the possibility of a sudden acquisition of control of the company which has not been negotiated with and approved by our board of directors. These provisions may tend to make it more difficult to remove the incumbent members of the board of directors. The provisions would not prohibit an acquisition of control of the company or a tender offer for all of our capital stock. However, to the extent these provisions successfully discourage the acquisition of control or tender offers for all or part of our capital stock without approval of the board of directors, they may have the effect of preventing an acquisition or tender offer which might be viewed by stockholders to be in their best interests.


Tender offers or other non-open market acquisitions of stock are usually made at prices above the prevailing market price. In addition, acquisitions of stock by persons attempting to acquire control through market purchases may cause the market price of the stock to reach levels which are higher than would otherwise be the case. Anti-takeover provisions may discourage such purchases, particularly those of less than all of the outstanding capital stock, and may thereby deprive stockholders of an opportunity to sell their stock at a temporarily higher price. These provisions may therefore decrease the likelihood that a tender offer will be made that adversely affects those stockholders who would desire to participate in a tender offer. These provisions may also serve to insulate incumbent management from change and to discourage not only sudden or hostile takeover attempts, but any attempts to acquire control which are not approved by the board of directors, whether or not stockholders deem such transactions to be in their best interests.


Authorized shares of capital stock


Our Nevada articles of incorporation authorize the issuance of up to 20,000,000 shares of serial preferred stock, without any action on the part of the stockholders. Shares of our serial preferred stock with voting rights could be issued and would then represent an additional class of stock required to approve any proposed acquisition. This preferred stock, together with authorized but unissued shares of common stock (the Nevada articles of incorporation authorize the issuance of up to 480,000,000 shares of common stock), could represent additional capital stock required to be purchased by an acquirer. If our board of directors determined to issue an additional class of voting preferred stock to a person opposed to a proposed acquisition, such person might be able to prevent the acquisition single-handedly.


Stockholder meetings


Nevada law provides that the annual stockholder meeting may be called by a corporation’s board of directors or by such person or persons as may be authorized by a corporation’s Nevada articles of incorporation or bylaws. Our Nevada articles of incorporation provide that annual stockholder meetings may be called only by our board of directors or a duly designated committee of the board. Although we believe that this provision will discourage stockholder attempts to disrupt our business between annual meetings, its effect may be to deter hostile takeovers by making it more difficult for a person or entity to obtain immediate control of our company


- 20 -


PRE 14C21st Page of 58TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 21st

Classified board of directors


Our Nevada articles of incorporation provide that the board of directors is to be divided into three classes which shall be as nearly equal in number as possible. The directors in each class serve for terms of three years, with the terms of one class expiring each year. Each class currently consists of approximately one-third of the number of directors. Each director will serve until his successor is elected and qualified. A classified board of directors could make it more difficult for stockholders, including those holding a majority of our outstanding stock, to force an immediate change in the composition of a majority of the board of directors. Since the terms of only one-third of the incumbent directors expire each year, it requires at least two annual elections for the stockholders to change a majority, whereas a majority of a non-classified board may be changed in one year. The provision for a staggered board of directors affects every election of directors and is not triggered by the occurrence of a particular event such as a hostile takeover. Thus a staggered board of directors makes it more difficult for stockholders to change the majority of directors even when the reason for the change would be unrelated to a takeover.


Removal of directors


Florida law requires the vote of a majority of the outstanding shares entitled to vote for the election of directors to remove directors. Nevada law provides that any or all directors may be removed only by the vote of two-thirds of the voting interests entitled to vote for the election of directors. The reincorporation may make it more difficult for the Nevada stockholders to remove a member of the board of directors because it increases the number of shares that must be voted for removal.


Restriction of maximum number of directors and filling vacancies on the board of directors


Nevada law requires that the board of directors of a corporation consist of one or more members and that the number of directors shall be set by or in the manner described in the corporation’s Nevada articles of incorporation or bylaws. Our Nevada articles of incorporation provides that the number of directors (exclusive of directors, if any, to be elected by the holders of preferred stock) shall not be less than one or more than 15, as shall be provided from time to time in accordance with the bylaws. The power to determine the number of directors within these numerical limitations is vested in the board of directors and requires the concurrence of at least two-thirds of the entire board of directors. The effect of such provisions may be to prevent a person or entity from quickly acquiring control of the company through an increase in the number of the directors and election of nominees to fill the newly created vacancies.


Advance notice requirements for nomination of directors and proposal of new business at annual stockholder meetings


Our Nevada articles of incorporation provide that any stockholder desiring to make a nomination for the election of directors or a proposal for new business at a stockholder meeting must submit written notice not less than 30 or more than 60 days in advance of the meeting. This advance notice requirement may give management time to solicit its own proxies in an attempt to defeat any dissident slate of nominations. Similarly, adequate advance notice of stockholder proposals will give management time to study such proposals and to determine whether to recommend to the stockholders that such proposals be adopted. In certain instances, such provisions could make it more difficult to oppose management’s nominees or proposals, even if the stockholders believe such nominees or proposals are in their interests. These provisions may tend to discourage persons from bringing up matters disclosed in the proxy materials furnished to the stockholders and could inhibit the ability of stockholders to bring up new business in response to recent developments.


RIGHTS OF DISSENTING SHAREHOLDERS


Any Company stockholder is entitled to be paid the fair value of its shares in accordance with Sections 607.1301-607.1333 of the Florida Business Corporation Act (“Florida Law”) if the stockholder dissents to the reincorporation or any of the actions resulting from or in connection with the reincorporation, including the exchange ratio of the Company common stock or preferred stock for Nevada common stock.  A brief summary of the provisions of Florida Law Sections 607.1301-607.1333 is set forth below and the complete text of said Sections is attached as Exhibit D.


Because the reincorporation has been approved by the required vote of the Company’s stockholders effective twenty days from the mailing of this Information Statement, each holder of shares of the Company Common Stock who asserts dissenters’ rights and who follows the procedures set forth in Sections 607.1301-607.1333 of Florida Law, will be entitled to have his or her shares of the Company Common Stock purchased by the Company for cash at their fair market value.  The fair market value of shares of the Company Common Stock will be determined as of the day before the first announcement of the terms of the reincorporation, excluding any appreciation or depreciation in consequence of the reincorporation.


- 21 -


PRE 14C22nd Page of 58TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 22nd

A holder who wishes to exercise dissenters’ rights should deliver his or her written demand to the Company’s transfer agent, Island Stock Transfer Company, Roosevelt Office Center, 15500 Roosevelt Boulevard, Suite 301, Clearwater, Florida 33760 with a copy (which shall not constitute notice) to Robert L. Sonfield, Jr., Esq., Sonfield & Sonfield, 2500 Wilcrest Drive, Suite 300, Houston, Texas 77042, on or before 20 days after the date of mailing of this Information Statement.  The demand will be sufficient if it reasonably informs the Company of the identity of the stockholder and that the stockholder intends thereby to demand the appraisal of such holder’s shares.  Any stockholder who does not follow the foregoing is not entitled to payment for his shares under Florida Law.


In accordance with the regulations promulgated under the Exchange Act, the authorization of the reincorporation will not become effective until twenty days after the Company has mailed this Information Statement to the stockholders of the Company.


Within 120 days after the effective date of the reincorporation, any stockholder who has complied with Sections 607.1301-607.1333 and who is otherwise entitled to appraisal rights, may file a petition in the Florida Court of Chancery demanding a determination of the value of the stock of all such stockholders.  At any time within 60 days after the effective date of the reincorporation, any stockholder shall have the right to withdraw such stockholder’s demand for appraisal and to accept the terms offered upon the reincorporation.  After determining the stockholders entitled to an appraisal, the Court shall appraise the shares, determining their fair value exclusive of any element of value arising from the accomplishment or expectation of the reincorporation, together with a fair rate of interest, if any, to be paid upon the amount determined to be the fair value.  The Court shall direct the payment of the fair value of the shares, together with interest, if any, by the surviving or resulting corporation to the stockholders entitled thereto. Interest may be simple or compound, as the Court may direct.  The costs of the proceeding may be determined by the Court and taxed upon the parties as the Court deems equitable in the circumstances.


The foregoing summary does not purport to provide comprehensive statements of the procedures to be followed by a dissenting stockholder who seeks payment of the fair value of his shares of the Company Common Stock.  Florida Law establishes the procedures to be followed and failure to do so may result in the loss of all dissenters’ rights.  Accordingly, each stockholder who might desire to exercise dissenters’ rights should carefully consider and comply with the provisions of these sections and consult his legal advisor.


THE COMPANY HAS RESERVED THE RIGHT TO ABANDON THE REINCORPORATION IF IT DECIDES THAT THE NUMBER OF STOCKHOLDERS EXERCISING DISSENTERS’ RIGHTS EXCEEDS AN AMOUNT IT DEEMS ACCEPTABLE IN ITS SOLE AND ABSOLUTE DISCRETION.


The discussion contained herein is qualified in its entirety by and should be read in conjunction with the form of the Agreement and Plan of Merger and the Articles of Incorporation.


COMMUNICATIONS WITH RESPECT TO DISSENTERS’ RIGHTS SHOULD BE ADDRESSED TO THE COMPANY’S TRANSFER AGENT, ISLAND STOCK TRANSFER COMPANY, ROOSEVELT OFFICE CENTER, 15500 ROOSEVELT BOULEVARD, SUITE 301, CLEARWATER, FLORIDA 33760


Upon filing a notice of election to dissent a dissenting shareholder will cease to have any of the rights of a shareholder except the right to be paid the fair value of his Company Stock pursuant to the Florida Law.  If a shareholder loses his dissenters’ rights, either by withdrawal of his demand, abandonment of the reincorporation by the Company or otherwise, he will not have the right to receive a cash payment for his Company Stock and will be reinstated to all of his rights as a shareholder as they existed at the time of the filing of his demand.


THE PROVISIONS OF FLORIDA LAW SECTIONS 607.1301-607.1333 ARE TECHNICAL AND COMPLEX.  IT IS SUGGESTED THAT ANY SHAREHOLDER WHO DESIRES TO EXERCISE RIGHTS TO DISSENT CONSULT LEGAL COUNSEL, AS FAILURE TO COMPLY STRICTLY WITH SUCH PROVISIONS MAY LEAD TO A LOSS OF DISSENTERS’ RIGHTS.

6.6 Additional Rules for Incentive Stock Options.


(a) No Incentive Stock Option shall be granted to a Participant to the extent that, as a result of such grant, the Fair Market Value (determined as of the proposed Grant Date) of the Shares with respect to which “incentive stock options” under Section 422 of the Code are exercisable for the first time in any calendar year under this Plan and any other plans of the Company would exceed the maximum amount permitted under Section 422(d) of the Code. This limitation shall be applied by taking “incentive stock options” under Section 422 of the Code into account in the order in which granted. Subject to Section 3.3, the maximum number of Shares that may be made subject to Incentive Stock Options granted to any one Participant during any one calendar year shall be 5,224,082 Shares.


(b) No Incentive Stock Option Award shall provide that such Incentive Stock Option may be exercised later than three months following termination of employment of the Participant with the Company, except to the extent permitted under special rules relating to death and disability in accordance with Section 422 of the Code.


(c) Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the terms and conditions of an Incentive Stock Option Award may contain such additional terms and conditions, not inconsistent with the terms of this Plan, as are deemed necessary or desirable by the Committee so as to cause such Incentive Stock Option to qualify as an “incentive stock option” under Section 422 of the Code; provided , however , the authorization, validity and enforceability of any Incentive Stock Option Award shall not be adversely affected due to a failure to comply with Section 422 of the Code. Such terms and conditions, together with the terms of this Plan, shall be interpreted so as to cause such Incentive Stock Option to qualify as an “incentive stock option” under Section 422 of the Code. Such terms and conditions shall include, if applicable, limitations on Incentive Stock Options granted to owners of ten percent or more of the Company. An Incentive Stock Option shall be treated as a Non-Qualified Stock Option to the extent that requirements applicable to “incentive stock options” under Section 422 of the Code shall not be satisfied, shall be nontransferable other than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution, and shall be exercisable during the lifetime of the applicable Participant only by such Participant.


(d) If Shares acquired by exercise of an Incentive Stock Option are disposed within two years following the Grant Date or one year following the delivery of such Shares to the applicable Participant upon exercise thereof, such Participant must be required to, promptly following such disposition, notify the Company in writing of the date and terms of such disposition and provide such other information regarding such disposition as the Company may request.

Upon exercise of an SAR Award in whole or in part, the Participant shall be entitled to receive such number of Shares that have a Fair Market Value equal to the excess, if any, of (i) the Fair Market Value of the Shares underlying such SAR Award or the part thereof exercised as of the date of exercise over (ii) the base price applicable to such Shares.

10.2 Designation as Qualified Performance-Based Compensation.(a) The Committee may specify which Performance Share Awards and Performance Unit Awards granted to an Employee are intended to be considered “qualified performance-based compensation” under Section 162(m), such that it would be a Section 162(m) Award. To the extent that any such Awards are intended to be a Section 162(m) Award, no such Award may be made as an alternative to another Award that is not designated as “qualified performance-based compensation” but instead must be separate and apart from all other Awards. Notwithstanding anything in this Plan to the contrary, the Committee’s obligations under Sections 10.2 through 10.4 cannot be delegated.


(b) When Performance Share Awards or Performance Unit Awards intended to be considered “qualified performance-based compensation” are granted, the Committee shall establish (i) the objective Performance Goals that must be met, (ii) the Performance Period during which performance will be measured, (iii) the maximum amounts that may be paid if the Performance Goals are met and (iv) any other conditions that the Committee deems appropriate and consistent with this Plan and the requirements of Section 162(m) for “qualified performance-based compensation.” The Committee shall establish the Performance Goals either before the beginning of the Performance Period or during a period ending no later than the earlier of (A) 90 days after the beginning of the Performance Period or (B) the date on which 25% of the Performance Period has been completed or such other date as may be required or permitted under Section 162(m). The Committee may, at any time during the first 90 days of the Performance Period (or, if shorter, the first 25% of the Performance Period, as allowed under Section 162(m)), to adjust or modify the calculation of a Performance Goal. Performance Goals must be established in a written form within the time prescribed by Section 162(m). The Performance Goals shall satisfy the requirements for “qualified performance-based compensation,” including the requirement that the achievement of the Performance Goals be substantially uncertain at the time they are established and that the Performance Goals be established in such a way that a third party with knowledge of the relevant facts could determine whether and to what extent the Performance Goals have been met. Except as provided in this Section 10.2(b), the Committee shall not have discretion to increase the amount of compensation that is payable upon achievement of Performance Goals.


(c) The Committee shall certify and announce the results for the Performance Period to all relevant Participants. The Committee shall determine the amount, if any, to be paid pursuant to each Award based on the achievement of the Performance Goals and the terms of each Award Agreement.

12.5 No Company Liability. The Corporation shall have no liability to a Participant if the Fair Market Value of Shares decreases between the date on which the Participant first attempts to exercise an Award in respect thereof and the date on which the Corporation issues or delivers such Shares.

12.6 Indemnification. Any Participant for whom the resale of Shares is included in a registration statement or statements will indemnify the Corporation, each of its directors and officers and each Person who Controls the Corporation (other than such Participant) against all claims, losses, damages, expenses and liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arising out of or based upon any untrue statement (or alleged untrue statement) of a material fact contained in any such registration statement or statements, or any omission (or alleged omission) to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and will reimburse the Corporation, each of its directors and officers and each Person Controlling the Corporation (other than such Participant) for all legal and any other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with investigating or defending any such claim, loss, damage, liability or action, in each case to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement (or alleged statement) or omission (or alleged omission) is made in such registration statement or statements in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Corporation by such Participant with respect to such Participant; provided , however , that the liability of any such Participant under this Section 12.4 shall be limited to the amount of proceeds received by such Participant in the resale giving rise to such liability.

13.1 Delivery of Shares. Except as may otherwise be determined by the Corporation:


(a) the Shares will be evidenced by (i) a physical certificate retained by the Secretary of the Corporation or such escrow agent as the Corporation may appoint until the Shares have vested and any note with respect to such Shares has been paid, as applicable, or (ii) will be delivered to the Participant in book entry form by causing the Shares to be credited to the Participant’s account at such brokerage firm as may be designated from time to time by the Corporation to assist in the administration of the Plan (the ” Broker “);


(b) when Shares are delivered in book-entry form, such delivery as well as all subsequent Transfers and other matters relating to the Shares will be subject, in addition to all other provisions hereof, to the rules and requirements imposed by the Broker and such administrative rules and requirements as may be imposed by the Corporation.


Prior to vesting and payment of any applicable loans, the Shares will be subject to stop transfer instructions given by the Corporation to the Broker and the transfer agent for the Shares. Upon vesting of any Shares, such stop transfer instructions will be terminated (except to the extent that any Shares may be subject to loans or sold to satisfy applicable withholding requirements). Upon forfeiture of any Shares, the Broker and such transfer agent will be instructed to debit such Shares from such account and return them to the Corporation. Each physical certificate and each book entry, in each case relating to Shares may include such restrictive legends in such forms as the Corporation may deem convenient, expedient, necessary or appropriate relating to the restrictions under this Plan or the applicable Award Agreement, as applicable, applicable securities, tax or other laws or applicable rules of any securities exchange or market.

In the event of a public offering of the Corporation’s securities and upon request of the Corporation or the underwriters managing any underwritten offering of the Corporation’s securities, the Participant shall agree not to sell, make any short sale of, loan, grant any option for the purchase of, or otherwise dispose of any Shares (other than those included in the registration), without the prior written consent of the Corporation or such underwriters, as the case may be, for such period of time (not to exceed one hundred eighty (180) days) from the effective date of such registration as may be requested by the Corporation or such managing underwriters.


13.5 Right of First Refusal.


(a) Subject to Section 13.9, if the Participant would like to transfer any Shares that have vested and are not subject to a note, the Participant shall give a written notice (a “Transfer Notice”) to the Corporation describing the proposed transfer, including: (i) the number of Shares to be transferred in such transfer (“Offered Shares”); (ii) the identity of the prospective transferee(s); and (iii) the consideration and other material terms and conditions upon which the proposed Transfer is to be made. The Transfer Notice shall certify that the Participant has received a bona fide offer from the prospective transferee(s) and in good faith reasonably believes a binding agreement for the transfer is obtainable on the terms set forth in the Transfer Notice. The Transfer Notice shall also include a copy of any written proposals, term sheets, letters of intent or other agreements relating to the proposed transfer.


(b) The Corporation shall have the right (but not the obligation) to purchase all or any part of the Offered Shares on the terms of the proposal described in the Transfer Notice (a “Right of First Refusal”) by delivery of a notice of exercise of the Right of First Refusal within thirty (30) days after the date on which the Transfer Notice is received by the Corporation. If the Corporation provides such notice to the Participant, then the closing of the Corporation’s purchase of the Offered Shares with respect to which it elects to exercise its Right of First Refusal shall occur no later than ninety (90) days after the Corporation’s receipt of the Transfer Notice. To the extent that the Corporation does not fully exercise its Right of First Refusal to purchase some or all of the Offered Shares within the applicable time period, the Participant may, not later than one hundred (100) days following receipt of the Transfer Notice by the Corporation, transfer the Offered Shares to the proposed transferee on the terms and conditions described in the Transfer Notice, subject to the transferee executing and delivering an agreement with the Company granting the Company a Right of First Refusal and a Call Right (as defined in this Section 13) with respect to such Shares on terms and conditions the same, in all material respects, as those set forth in this Section 13. Any proposed transfer of the Offered Shares occurring after such one hundred (100) day time period or on terms and conditions different from those described in the Transfer Notice shall again be subject to the Right of First Refusal and require compliance with the procedure described above. The Corporation may, at its option, pay the purchase price for Shares purchased in exercise of its Right of First Refusal in three (3) or fewer annual installments, the first of which shall be paid upon the closing of the purchase. Interest shall accrue on the installments at the federal short-term interest rate in effect on the first day of the month of exercise of the Right of First Refusal, to be recalculated on the first day of each month thereafter until all payments due are made.


13.6 Corporation Repurchase Right.


(a) Subject to Section 13.9 upon the termination of the Participant’s employment with the Company, the Corporation shall have the right, but not the obligation, until the first anniversary of the termination of the Participant’s employment to repurchase some or all of the Shares from the Participant, or the Participant’s successor in interest, if applicable, in one or more transactions (the “Call Right(s)”).


(b) When exercising a Call Right following a termination of the Participant’s employment by the Company or any Subsidiary for Cause or by the Participant other than due to Retirement, the Corporation shall pay, per Share purchased pursuant to the Call Right, the lesser of (i) the price paid by the Participant for such Share or (ii) the Specified Value (as defined below). When exercising a Call Right following a termination of the Participant’s death, Disability or Retirement or by the Company without Cause, the Corporation shall pay, per Share purchased pursuant to the Call Right, the Specified Value. For purposes of this Section 13, “Specified Value” shall mean [two times the trailing twelve months’ revenue of the Company determined as of the date of termination of the Participant’s employment or the date of the exercise of the Call Right, whichever is less]. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Corporation may, at its option, pay the amount, if any, that it shall be obligated to pay under this Section 13.6(b) in three (3) or fewer annual installments, the first of which shall be paid upon the closing of the purchase. Interest shall accrue on the installments at the federal short-term interest rate in effect on the first day of the month of exercise of the Call Right, to be recalculated on the first day of each month thereafter until all payments due are made.

(c) Notwithstanding Section 13.6(a) to the contrary, the Corporation shall not be obligated to repurchase any of the Shares from the Participant, or from the estate of the Participant, and may defer such repurchase, if there exists and is continuing a default or an event of default on the part of the Corporation or under any guarantee or other agreement under which the Corporation or any of its subsidiaries has borrowed money or if such repurchase would constitute a breach of, or result in a default or an event of default on the part of the Corporation or any of its Subsidiaries under, any such guarantee or agreement, or if the repurchase would not be permitted under any applicable laws. If the Corporation is unable to purchase Shares generally in accordance with the preceding sentence, the Corporation shall pay the Participant for such Shares as soon as possible, with interest at the federal short-term interest rate in effect on the first day of the month of exercise of the Call Right, to be recalculated on the first day of each month thereafter until all payments due are made.


(d) The Corporation may exercise its Call Right(s) under this Section 13.6 by giving written notice thereof to the Participant (or his successor in interest, if applicable). Upon delivery (or promptly following delivery) of such notice(s) of exercise of a Call Right, the Corporation shall deliver to the Participant (or his successor in interest, if applicable) a calculation of the purchase price therefor determined in accordance with Section 13.6(b). The consummation of the repurchase, to the extent such repurchase would require the delivery of payment to the Participant, shall take place at the principal offices of the Corporation on the tenth (10 th ) business day following the delivery of the calculation of the purchase price (or at such other time and/or place as the Corporation and the Participant (or such successor in interest) shall agree).


13.7 Assignment of Rights.


(a) The Corporation may assign its Right of First Refusal under Section 13.5 and/or its Call Right under 13.6 in whole or in part, to: (i) any affiliate; or (ii) upon written consent of the Board, any other person that the Board determines has a sufficient relationship with or interest in the Corporation. The Corporation shall give reasonable written notice to the Participant of any such assignment.


(b) The restrictions of this Section 13 apply to the Participant and any person to whom Shares are sold, pledged, assigned, bequeathed, gifted, transferred or otherwise disposed of, without regard to the number of such subsequent transferees or the manner in which they acquire the Shares. For purposes of Section 13, the term “Participant” shall include any person purchasing the Shares in accordance with Section 13.


13.8 Conflict with Agreements. The provisions of this Section 13 are intended to be in addition to, and not in conflict with the rights and restrictions in any Award Agreement and the Corporation’s Stockholder’s Agreement. To the extent there is a conflict between the terms of this Section 13 and any of the rights or restrictions in an Award Agreement, the terms of this Section 13 shall prevail, notwithstanding any other provisions of such Award Agreement.


13.9 Exchange Listed Stock. If the Common Stock becomes listed on a national stock exchange, the transfer restrictions and rights set forth in Sections 13.5 through 13.7 shall terminate as of the first date that the Common Stock is so listed.


13.10 Violation of Law. No Award may be exercised at a time when the exercise thereof or the issuance of Shares thereunder would constitute a violation of any law, rule or regulation or any rule of any securities market or exchange on which the Common Stock is then listed.


14.  Change in Control


14.1 In addition to the adjustments required or permitted under Section 3.3, the Committee may prescribe additional provisions relating to the effect of a Change in Control or a Corporate Event on an Award. Such provisions need not be in an Award Agreement, and will not require the consent of a Participant and may include: (i) acceleration of the vesting and exercisability of any Award; (ii) extension of time periods for satisfying vesting or Transferability conditions with respect to, or exercising or realizing payments, rights, benefits or gains from, any Award; (iii) elimination or modification of conditions related to vesting, Transferability or exercisability of or payments, rights, benefits or gains under, any Award; (iv) provision for the settlement of any Award with an equivalent value in other securities, cash or properties; (v) requirement that outstanding Awards that are “in-the-money” be settled in cash in an amount equal to the amount by which they are “in-the-money”, as determined by the Committee; (vi) requirement that Participants surrender their outstanding Awards that are “in-the-money” in exchange for a settlement immediately following the Change in Control, as determined by the Committee; (vii) cancellation of any or all Awards that are not “in the money” without consideration; and (viii) cancellation or forfeiture of any Awards that are not vested as of the date of the Change in Control without consideration. Such surrender, settlement and cancellation shall take place as of the date of the Change in Control or such other date as the Committee may specify. For purposes of this Section 14, an Award being “in the money” means that the excess of the Fair Market Value as of the date of the Change in Control over the Award Price is a positive value.

14.2 The Committee shall provide in an Award Agreement whether an Award that is subject to Section 409A is payable upon a Change in Control. If an Award that is subject to Section 409A provides for vesting upon a Change in Control that is not permissible payment event, then such Award Agreement shall state the event upon which such Award may be payable.


15.  Miscellaneous Award Provisions


15.1 Conflicts. In the event of a conflict between the terms of this Plan and any Award Agreement, the terms of this Plan shall prevail.


15.2 Forfeiture Events. Unless otherwise provided in an Award Agreement, a Participant’s rights, payments, gains and benefits with respect to an Award shall be subject to reduction, cancellation, forfeiture and recoupment upon the occurrence of specified events, in addition to any otherwise applicable continued employment or performance conditions as prescribed by the Committee. Such events include termination of employment for Cause, violation of material policies, breach of noncompetition, confidentiality or other restrictive covenants, engagement in Detrimental Conduct and any other events determined by the Committee that may be set forth in an Award Agreement.


15.3 Section 409A. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the terms of the Plan are intended to, and shall be interpreted and applied so as to, comply in all respects with Section 409A. The Committee may amend the terms of any Award, in order to cure any potential defects under Section 409A, in a manner deemed appropriate by the Committee, without the consent of the Participant. It is the intention of the Corporation that no Award be subject to the additional tax imposed by Section 409A(b)(5)(i) of the Code. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, it is intended that (i) all Options granted under this Plan will be exempt from Section 409A and (ii) all other Award may be granted hereunder either (a) in a manner such that the Award will not provide for a deferral of compensation subject to Section 409A or (b) in a manner such that the Award will be subject to Section 409A. If an Award is intended to be so subject to Section 409A, then the Award shall be settled and paid in a single lump sum (I) as of a specified date, (II) upon the Participant’s Separation from Service, or (III) the earlier of such dates, as specified by the Committee at the time of grant and shall otherwise be granted, administered, settled and paid in accordance with Section 409A; provided , however , that no such settlement or payment shall be made to a Specified Employee upon a Separation from Service before the date which is 6 months after the date of the Specified Employee’s Separation from Service (or, if earlier, the date of death of the Specified Employee); provided, further, that Performance Share Awards and Performance Unit Awards may be paid upon a Change in Control that is a permissible payment event under Section 409A. Nothing in this Section 15.3 shall be construed as an admission that any of the compensation and or benefits payable under this Plan constitutes “deferred compensation” subject to Section 409A.


16.  General Provisions


16.1 No Transfer of Awards; Plan Binding; Beneficiaries. Unless otherwise prescribed by the Committee, Awards shall not be Transferable, except by will or by the laws of descent and distribution, and, during the lifetime of a Participant, Awards shall be exercised only by the Participant or by his guardian or legal representative. Subject to the other provisions hereof, Awards other than Incentive Stock Options Awards may be Transferred to a Permitted Transferee, but shall not be Transferable for value. This Plan shall be binding upon the Corporation and its successors and the Participants and their permitted successors in interest. Each Participant shall have the right to designate a beneficiary or beneficiaries who shall be entitled to take any action, make any election and receive any rights, payments, benefits or gains under an applicable Award following such Participant’s death.


16.2 Deferrals of Payment. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the Committee may permit a Participant to defer the receipt of payment or delivery of cash, securities, rights or other property that would otherwise be due to such Participant by virtue of the exercise of or the satisfaction of vesting or other conditions or restrictions with respect to an Award. If any such deferral is to be permitted, the Committee shall establish the rules and procedures relating to such deferral, including the period of time in advance of payment or delivery when an election to defer is required to be made, the time period of the deferral, the events that would result in payment or delivery of the deferred amount, the interest or other earnings attributable to the deferred amount and the method of funding (if any) attributable to the deferred amount. Any deferrals made pursuant to this Section 16.2 shall be made in a manner and subject to terms and conditions so as to comply with Section 409A.


16.3 Rights as Stockholder. Except as otherwise provided in this Plan, no Participant shall have any rights (including rights with respect to voting, dividends or distributions) with respect to any securities underlying an Award until the date such securities are delivered to the Participant.


16.4 Employment or Service. Nothing in this Plan, in the grant of any Award or in any Award Agreement shall confer upon any Eligible Person or Participant the right to continue in any capacity in which he is employed by, or otherwise serves, the Company and shall not interfere in any way with any right that the Company would otherwise have to terminate his or her employment or other service at any time.

16.5 Other Compensation and Benefit Plans. The adoption of this Plan shall not affect any other stock incentive or other compensation plans of the Company and shall not preclude the Company from establishing any other forms of stock incentive or other compensation for Employees, Non-Employee Directors or other Persons. The amount of any compensation deemed to be received by a Participant pursuant to an Award shall not constitute compensation with respect to which any other benefits of such Participant are determined, including benefits under any bonus, pension, profit sharing, life insurance or salary continuation plan, except as otherwise specifically provided by the terms of such plan. The Plan shall not entitle Participants to any future compensation. The Plan is not an element of the Employees’ base salary or base compensation and shall not be considered as part of such in the event of severance, redundancy, or resignation. The Company has no obligation to offer incentive plans to Participants in the future, and the Plan shall be effective only for the time period specified in the Plan and shall not be deemed to renew year over year and there is not obligation for uniformity of treatment of Employees or Participants under the Plan. Specifically, the Company assumes no obligation to the Participant under this Plan with respect to any doctrine or principle of acquired rights or similar concept.


16.6 Tax Withholding. The Participant or successor in interest shall be responsible for payment of all taxes and other charges required by law to be withheld from an Award or securities, cash or other property paid or delivered in settlement of an Award. Payment shall be made: (i) in cash or by check; (ii) at the discretion of the Committee, in Shares, valued at the Fair Market Value of such Shares on the applicable date; (iii) by deduction from the settlement of the applicable Award; (iv) at the discretion of the Committee, by a combination of the methods described above; or (v) by such other method as may be approved by the Committee. The Company is hereby authorized to, at its election, (i) require that the Participant or successor in interest make a payment to the Company, (ii) deduct from other compensation, including wages, to be paid by the Company or (iii) withhold from any Shares or cash or other property deliverable under this Plan in settlement of an Award, in each case, the amount of any federal, state or local taxes that the Company is required to withhold with respect to such Awards.


16.7 Unfunded Plan. This Plan shall be unfunded. Neither the Company nor any other Person shall be required to establish any special or separate fund or to make any other segregation of assets to assure the settlement of any Awards. Nothing contained in this Plan and no action taken pursuant hereto shall create or be construed to create a fiduciary relationship between the Company or any other Person and any Participant (or any of his successors in interest). No Participant or other Person shall under any circumstances acquire any property interest in any specific assets of the Company or any other Person. To the extent that any Person acquires a right to receive settlement from the Corporation hereunder, such right shall be no greater than the right of any unsecured general creditor of the Corporation. Neither the adoption of this Plan nor the setting aside of securities, cash or other property by the Company with which to discharge its obligations hereunder shall be deemed to create a trust or other funded arrangement. The Company shall have the right to implement or set aside securities, cash or other property in a grantor trust, subject to the claims of the Company’s creditors, to discharge its obligations under this Plan.


16.8 Construction and Interpretation. Whenever used herein, nouns in the singular shall include the plural, and the masculine pronoun shall include the feminine gender. Whenever used herein, the word “including” shall be deemed to be followed by the phrase “without limitation.” Headings of Sections hereof are inserted for convenience of reference and constitute no part of this Plan.


16.9 Severability. If any provision of this Plan or any Award is or becomes, or is deemed by the Committee to be, invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction or as to any Person or Award, or would disqualify this Plan or any Award under any law deemed applicable by the Committee, such provision shall be construed or deemed amended to conform to the applicable laws or, if it cannot be so construed or deemed amended without, in the determination of the Committee, materially altering the intent of this Plan or such Award, such provision shall be stricken as to such jurisdiction, Person or Award and the remainder of this Plan and such Award shall remain in full force and effect.


16.10 GOVERNING LAW. THE VALIDITY AND CONSTRUCTION OF THIS PLAN AND OF THE AWARD AGREEMENTS SHALL BE GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEVADA, WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO THE CONFLICTS OF LAWS PRINCIPLES THEREOF.


16.11 Fractional Shares. No fractional Shares shall be delivered pursuant to this Plan or any Award, and the Committee shall determine whether cash or other securities shall be paid or delivered in lieu of any fractional Shares or whether any fractional Shares or rights thereto shall be canceled or otherwise eliminated.


16.12 Assignment and Successor. The obligations of the Corporation under the Plan shall be binding upon any successor corporation or organization resulting from the merger, consolidation or other reorganization of the Company, or upon any successor corporation or organization succeeding to substantially all of the assets and business of the Company. The Corporation shall take all such actions as may be necessary so the Plan and any Award Agreement entered into hereunder is binding on its successors.

16.13 Compliance with Law.


(a) Notwithstanding anything contained herein or in any Award Agreement to the contrary, the Committee may amend, supplement or cancel any Award to the extent necessary to comply with applicable law, rule or regulation.


(b) With respect to Participants subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act (“Members”) transactions under this Plan are intended to comply with all applicable conditions of Rule 16b-3 or its successors under the Exchange Act. To the extent that compliance with any Plan provision applicable solely to such Members that is included solely for purposes of complying with Rule 16b-3 is not required in order to bring a transaction by such Member in compliance with Rule 16b-3, it shall be deemed null and void as to such transaction, to the extent permitted by law and deemed advisable by the Committee. To the extent any provision in the Plan or action by the Committee involving such Members is deemed not to comply with an applicable condition of Rule 16b-3, it shall be deemed null and void as to such Members, to the extent permitted by law and deemed advisable by the Committee.


16.14 Leave. If approved by the Committee, an Employee’s absence or leave because of military or governmental service, disability or other reason shall not be considered an interruption of employment for any purpose under the Plan; provided, however, that, to the extent that an Award under this Plan is subject to Section 409A, such absence or leave shall be considered a Separation from Service to the extent so provided by Section 409A.


17.  Effective Date, Termination and Amendment


17.1 Effective Date. This Plan shall become effective on the date of approval of this Plan by the Board.


17.2 Termination. The authority to grant new Awards under this Plan shall terminate on the date immediately preceding the tenth anniversary of the Effective Date. The Board may, at any earlier date, terminate this Plan. No termination of this Plan shall adversely affect any Award theretofore granted, without the consent of the applicable Participant (or his permitted successor in interest).


17.3 Amendment. The Board may, at any time and from time to time and in any respect, amend or supplement this Plan. The Board may seek the approval of any amendment or supplement by the stockholders to the extent that it deems necessary or advisable, in its sole discretion, for purposes of compliance with the Code, the listing requirements of any securities exchange or market or any other purpose. No amendment or supplement of this Plan shall adversely affect any Award theretofore granted without the consent of the applicable Participant (or his permitted successor in interest), unless such right has been reserved in this Plan or such amendment or supplement is required to comply with applicable law, rule or regulation. The authority of the Committee to take any action (other than grant new Awards) hereunder shall continue after the authority for grant of new Awards hereunder has been exhausted or terminated (and, for these purposes, new Awards do not include actions taken under Section 3.3 or Substitute Awards).


This Plan was adopted by the Board and approved by the shareholders of the Corporation on January 2, 2015.

607.1303 Assertion of rights by nominees and beneficial owners.—


(1) A record shareholder may assert appraisal rights as to fewer than all the shares registered in the record shareholder’s name but owned by a beneficial shareholder only if the record shareholder objects with respect to all shares of the class or series owned by the beneficial shareholder and notifies the corporation in writing of the name and address of each beneficial shareholder on whose behalf appraisal rights are being asserted. The rights of a record shareholder who asserts appraisal rights for only part of the shares held of record in the record shareholder’s name under this subsection shall be determined as if the shares as to which the record shareholder objects and the record shareholder’s other shares were registered in the names of different record shareholders.


(2) A beneficial shareholder may assert appraisal rights as to shares of any class or series held on behalf of the shareholder only if such shareholder:


(a) Submits to the corporation the record shareholder’s written consent to the assertion of such rights no later than the date referred to in s. 607.1322(2)(b)2.


(b) Does so with respect to all shares of the class or series that are beneficially owned by the beneficial shareholder.

If the corporation concludes that appraisal rights are or may be available, a copy of ss. 607.1301-607.1333 must accompany the meeting notice sent to those record shareholders entitled to exercise appraisal rights.

2. A date by which the corporation must receive the form, which date may not be fewer than 40 nor more than 60 days after the date the subsection (1) appraisal notice and form are sent, and state that the shareholder shall have waived the right to demand appraisal with respect to the shares unless the form is received by the corporation by such specified date.


3. The corporation’s estimate of the fair value of the shares.


4. An offer to each shareholder who is entitled to appraisal rights to pay the corporation’s estimate of fair value set forth in subparagraph 3.

607.1324 Shareholder’s acceptance of corporation’s offer.—


(1) If the shareholder states on the form provided in s. 607.1322(1) that the shareholder accepts the offer of the corporation to pay the corporation’s estimated fair value for the shares, the corporation shall make such payment to the shareholder within 90 days after the corporation’s receipt of the form from the shareholder.


(2) Upon payment of the agreed value, the shareholder shall cease to have any interest in the shares.


607.1326 Procedure if shareholder is dissatisfied with offer.—


(1) A shareholder who is dissatisfied with the corporation’s offer as set forth pursuant to s. 607.1322(2)(b)4. must notify the corporation on the form provided pursuant to s. 607.1322(1) of that shareholder’s estimate of the fair value of the shares and demand payment of that estimate plus interest.

607.1330 Court action.—


(1) If a shareholder makes demand for payment under s. 607.1326 which remains unsettled, the corporation shall commence a proceeding within 60 days after receiving the payment demand and petition the court to determine the fair value of the shares and accrued interest. If the corporation does not commence the proceeding within the 60-day period, any shareholder who has made a demand pursuant to s. 607.1326 may commence the proceeding in the name of the corporation.


(2) The proceeding shall be commenced in the appropriate court of the county in which the corporation’s principal office, or, if none, its registered office, in this state is located. If the corporation is a foreign corporation without a registered office in this state, the proceeding shall be commenced in the county in this state in which the principal office or registered office of the domestic corporation merged with the foreign corporation was located at the time of the transaction.


(3) All shareholders, whether or not residents of this state, whose demands remain unsettled shall be made parties to the proceeding as in an action against their shares. The corporation shall serve a copy of the initial pleading in such proceeding upon each shareholder party who is a resident of this state in the manner provided by law for the service of a summons and complaint and upon each nonresident shareholder party by registered or certified mail or by publication as provided by law.


(4) The jurisdiction of the court in which the proceeding is commenced under subsection (2) is plenary and exclusive. If it so elects, the court may appoint one or more persons as appraisers to receive evidence and recommend a decision on the question of fair value. The appraisers shall have the powers described in the order appointing them or in any amendment to the order. The shareholders demanding appraisal rights are entitled to the same discovery rights as parties in other civil proceedings. There shall be no right to a jury trial.


(5) Each shareholder made a party to the proceeding is entitled to judgment for the amount of the fair value of such shareholder’s shares, plus interest, as found by the court.


(6) The corporation shall pay each such shareholder the amount found to be due within 10 days after final determination of the proceedings. Upon payment of the judgment, the shareholder shall cease to have any interest in the shares.


607.1331 Court costs and counsel fees.—


(1) The court in an appraisal proceeding shall determine all costs of the proceeding, including the reasonable compensation and expenses of appraisers appointed by the court. The court shall assess the costs against the corporation, except that the court may assess costs against all or some of the shareholders demanding appraisal, in amounts the court finds equitable, to the extent the court finds such shareholders acted arbitrarily, vexatiously, or not in good faith with respect to the rights provided by this chapter.


(2) The court in an appraisal proceeding may also assess the fees and expenses of counsel and experts for the respective parties, in amounts the court finds equitable:


D - 6


PRE 14CLast Page of 58TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 58th

(a) Against the corporation and in favor of any or all shareholders demanding appraisal if the court finds the corporation did not substantially comply with ss. 607.1320 and 607.1322; or


(b) Against either the corporation or a shareholder demanding appraisal, in favor of any other party, if the court finds that the party against whom the fees and expenses are assessed acted arbitrarily, vexatiously, or not in good faith with respect to the rights provided by this chapter.


(3) If the court in an appraisal proceeding finds that the services of counsel for any shareholder were of substantial benefit to other shareholders similarly situated, and that the fees for those services should not be assessed against the corporation, the court may award to such counsel reasonable fees to be paid out of the amounts awarded the shareholders who were benefited.


(4) To the extent the corporation fails to make a required payment pursuant to s. 607.1324, the shareholder may sue directly for the amount owed and, to the extent successful, shall be entitled to recover from the corporation all cos costs and expenses of the suit, including counsel fees.


607.1332 Disposition of acquired shares.—Shares acquired by a corporation pursuant to payment of the agreed value thereof or pursuant to payment of the judgment entered therefor, as provided in this chapter, may be held and disposed of by such corporation as authorized but unissued shares of the corporation, except that, in the case of a merger or share exchange, they may be held and disposed of as the plan of merger or share exchange otherwise provides. The shares of the surviving corporation into which the shares of such shareholders demanding appraisal rights would have been converted had they assented to the merger shall have the status of authorized but unissued shares of the surviving corporation.


607.1333 Limitation on corporate payment.—


(1) No payment shall be made to a shareholder seeking appraisal rights if, at the time of payment, the corporation is unable to meet the distribution standards of s. 607.06401. In such event, the shareholder shall, at the shareholder’s option:


(a) Withdraw his or her notice of intent to assert appraisal rights, which shall in such event be deemed withdrawn with the consent of the corporation; or


(b) Retain his or her status as a claimant against the corporation and, if it is liquidated, be subordinated to the rights of creditors of the corporation, but have rights superior to the shareholders not asserting appraisal rights, and if it is not liquidated, retain his or her right to be paid for the shares, which right the corporation shall be obliged to satisfy when the restrictions of this section do not apply.


(2) The shareholder shall exercise the option under paragraph (1)(a) or paragraph (b) by written notice filed with the corporation within 30 days after the corporation has given written notice that the payment for shares cannot be made because of the restrictions of this section. If the shareholder fails to exercise the option, the shareholder shall be deemed to have withdrawn his or her notice of intent to assert appraisal rights.
