MEETINGS OF STOCKHOLDERS
2.1 Place of Meetings.
Meetings of stockholders shall be held at any place, within or outside the State of Nevada, designated by the board of directors. The board of directors may, in its sole discretion, determine that a meeting of stockholders shall not be held at any place, but may instead be held solely by means of remote communication as authorized by the Nevada Revised Statutes. In the absence of any such designation or determination, stockholders’ meetings shall be held at the corporation’s principal executive office.
2.2 Annual Meeting.
The annual meeting of stockholders shall be held on such date, at such time, and at such place (if any) within or without the State of Nevada as shall be designated from time to time by the board of directors and stated in the corporation’s notice of the meeting. At the annual meeting, directors shall be elected and any other proper business may be transacted.
2.3 Special Meeting.
(a) A special meeting of the stockholders, other than those required by statute, may be called at any time only by: (i) the board of directors, (ii) the chief executive officer, or (iii) the president (in the absence of a chief executive officer). A special meeting of the stockholders may not be called by any other person or persons. The board of directors may cancel, postpone or reschedule any previously scheduled special meeting at any time, before or after the notice for such meeting has been sent to the stockholders.
(b) The notice of a special meeting shall include the purpose for which the meeting is called. Only such business shall be conducted at a special meeting of stockholders as shall have been brought before the meeting by or at the direction of the board of directors, the chairperson of the board of directors, the chief executive officer or the president (in the absence of a chief executive officer). Nothing contained in this Section 2.3(b) shall be construed as limiting, fixing or affecting the time when a meeting of stockholders called by action of the board of directors may be held.
2.4 Advance Notice Procedures.
(a) Advance Notice of Stockholder Business. At an annual meeting of the stockholders, only such business shall be conducted as shall have been properly brought before the meeting. To be properly brought before an annual meeting, business must be brought: (i) pursuant to the corporation’s proxy materials with respect to such meeting, (ii) by or at the direction of the board of directors, or (iii) by a stockholder of the corporation who: (A) is a stockholder of record at the time of the giving of the notice required by this Section 2.4(a) and on the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to vote at the annual meeting, and (B) has timely complied in proper written form with the notice procedures set forth in this Section 2.4(a). In addition, for business to be properly brought before an annual meeting by a stockholder, such business must be a proper matter for stockholder action pursuant to these bylaws and applicable law. Except for proposals properly made in accordance with Rule 14a-8 under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or any successor thereto (the “Exchange Act”), and included in the notice of meeting given by or at the direction of the board of directors, for the avoidance of doubt, clause (iii) above shall be the exclusive means for a stockholder to bring business before an annual meeting of stockholders.
(1) To comply with clause (iii) of Section 2.4(a) above, a stockholder’s notice must set forth all information required under this Section 2.4(a) and must be timely received by the secretary of the corporation. To be timely, a stockholder’s notice must be received by the secretary at the principal executive offices of the corporation not later than the close of business on the 90th day nor earlier than the 120th day before the one-year anniversary of the date on which the corporation first mailed its proxy materials or a notice of availability of proxy materials (whichever is earlier) for the preceding year’s annual meeting; provided, however, that in the event that no annual meeting was held in the previous year or if the date of the annual meeting is more than 30 days before or more than 60 days after the one-year anniversary of the date of the previous year’s annual meeting, then, for notice by the stockholder to be timely, it must be so received by the secretary not earlier than the close of business on the 120th day prior to such annual meeting and not later than the close of business on the later of: (i) the 90th day prior to such annual meeting, or (ii) the tenth (10th) day following the day on which Public Announcement (as defined below) of the date of such annual meeting is first made. In no event shall any adjournment or postponement of an annual meeting or the announcement thereof commence a new time period for the giving of a stockholder’s notice as described in this Section 2.4(a)(1). “Public Announcement” shall mean disclosure in a press release reported by the Dow Jones News Service, Associated Press or a comparable national news service or in a document publicly filed by the corporation with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to Section 13, 14 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act.
(2) To be in proper written form, a stockholder’s notice to the secretary must set forth as to each matter of business the stockholder intends to bring before the annual meeting: (i) a brief description of the business intended to be brought before the annual meeting and the reasons for conducting such business at the annual meeting, (ii) the name and address, as they appear on the corporation’s books, of the stockholder proposing such business and any Stockholder Associated Person (as defined below), (iii) a representation that the stockholder is a holder of record of stock of the corporation entitled to vote at such meeting and intends to appear in person or by proxy at the meeting to introduce the business specified in the notice, (iv) the class and number of shares of the corporation that are held of record or are beneficially owned by the stockholder or any Stockholder Associated Person and any derivative positions held or beneficially held by the stockholder or any Stockholder Associated Person, (v) whether and the extent to which any hedging or other transaction or series of transactions has been entered into by or on behalf of such stockholder or any Stockholder Associated Person with respect to any securities of the corporation, and a description of any other agreement, arrangement or understanding (including any short position or any borrowing or lending of shares), the effect or intent of which is to mitigate loss to, or to manage the risk or benefit from share price changes for, or to increase or decrease the voting power of, such stockholder or any Stockholder Associated Person with respect to any securities of the corporation, (vi) any material interest of the stockholder or a Stockholder Associated Person in such business, (vii) a description of any agreement, arrangement or understanding with respect to the business between or among the stockholder or Stockholder Associated Person and any other person, including without limitation any agreements that would be required to be disclosed pursuant to Items 5 or 6 of Schedule 13D under the Exchange Act (regardless of whether the requirement to file a Schedule 13D is applicable to the stockholder or beneficial owner), and (viii) a statement whether the stockholder or any Stockholder Associated Person will deliver a proxy statement and form of proxy to holders of at least the percentage of the corporation’s voting shares required under applicable law to carry the proposal (such information provided and statements made as required by clauses (i) through (viii), a “Business Solicitation Statement”). In addition, to be in proper written form, a stockholder’s notice to the secretary must be supplemented not later than ten days following the record date for notice of the meeting to disclose the information contained in clauses (iv) and (v) above as of the record date for notice of the meeting. For purposes of this Section 2.4, a “Stockholder Associated Person” of any stockholder shall mean: (i) any person controlling, directly or indirectly, or acting in concert with, such stockholder, (ii) any beneficial owner of shares of stock of the corporation owned of record or beneficially by such stockholder and on whose behalf the proposal or nomination, as the case may be, is being made, or (iii) any person controlling, controlled by or under common control with such person referred to in the preceding clauses (i) and (ii).
(3) Without exception, no business shall be conducted at any annual meeting except in accordance with the provisions set forth in this Section 2.4(a) and, if applicable, Section 2.4(b). In addition, business proposed to be brought by a stockholder may not be brought before the annual meeting if such stockholder or a Stockholder Associated Person, as applicable, takes action contrary to the representations made in the Business Solicitation Statement applicable to such business or if the Business Solicitation Statement applicable to such business contains an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact necessary to make the statements therein not misleading. The chairperson of the annual meeting shall, if the facts warrant, determine and declare at the annual meeting that business was not properly brought before the annual meeting and in accordance with the provisions of this Section 2.4(a), and, if the chairperson should so determine, he or she shall so declare at the annual meeting that any such business not properly brought before the annual meeting shall not be conducted.
(b) Advance Notice of Director Nominations at Annual Meetings. Notwithstanding anything in these bylaws to the contrary, only persons who are nominated in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Section 2.4(b) shall be eligible for election or re-election as directors at an annual meeting of stockholders, except as may be otherwise provided in the articles of incorporation with respect to the right of holders of preferred stock of the corporation to nominate and elect a specified number of directors, if any. Nominations of persons for election or re-election to the board of directors of the corporation shall be made at an annual meeting of stockholders only: (i) by or at the direction of the board of directors, or (ii) by a stockholder of the corporation who: (A) was a stockholder of record at the time of the giving of the notice required by this Section 2.4(b) and on the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to vote at the annual meeting, and (B) has complied with the notice procedures set forth in this Section 2.4(b). In addition to any other applicable requirements, for a nomination to be made by a stockholder, the stockholder must have given timely notice thereof in proper written form to the secretary of the corporation.
(1) To comply with clause (ii) of Section 2.4(b) above, a nomination to be made by a stockholder must set forth all information required under this Section 2.4(b) and must be received by the secretary of the corporation at the principal executive offices of the corporation at the time set forth in, and in accordance with, Section 2.4(a)(1) above.

(i) as to each person (a “nominee”) whom the stockholder proposes to nominate for election or re-election as a director: (A) the name, age, business address and residence address of the nominee, (B) the principal occupation or employment of the nominee, (C) the class or series and number of shares of the corporation that are held of record or are beneficially owned by the nominee and any derivative positions held or beneficially held by the nominee, (D) whether and the extent to which any hedging or other transaction or series of transactions has been entered into by or on behalf of the nominee with respect to any securities of the corporation, and a description of any other agreement, arrangement or understanding (including any short position or any borrowing or lending of shares), the effect or intent of which is to mitigate loss to, or to manage the risk or benefit of share price changes for, or to increase or decrease the voting power of, the nominee, (E) a description of all arrangements or understandings between the stockholder and each nominee and any other person or persons (naming such person or persons) pursuant to which the nominations are to be made by the stockholder, (F) a written statement executed by the nominee acknowledging that as a director of the corporation, the nominee will owe a fiduciary duty under the Nevada Revised Statutes with respect to the corporation and its stockholders, and (G) any other information relating to the nominee that would be required to be disclosed about such nominee if proxies were being solicited for the election or re-election of the nominee as a director, or that is otherwise required, in each case pursuant to Regulation 14A under the Exchange Act (including without limitation the nominee’s written consent to being named in the proxy statement, if any, as a nominee and to serving as a director if elected or re-elected, as the case may be); and
(ii) as to such stockholder giving notice: (A) the information required to be provided pursuant to clauses (ii) through (vii) of Section 2.4(a)(2) above, and the supplement referenced in the second sentence of Section 2.4(a)(2) above (except that the references to “business” in such clauses shall instead refer to nominations of directors for purposes of this paragraph), and (B) a statement whether either such stockholder or Stockholder Associated Person will deliver a proxy statement and form of proxy to holders of a number of the corporation’s voting shares reasonably believed by such stockholder or Stockholder Associated Person to be necessary to elect or re-elect such nominee(s) (such information provided and statements made as required by clauses (A) and (B) above, a “Nominee Solicitation Statement”).
(3) At the request of the board of directors, any person nominated by a stockholder for election or re-election as a director must furnish to the secretary of the corporation: (i) that information required to be set forth in the stockholder’s notice of nomination of such person as a director as of a date subsequent to the date on which the notice of such person’s nomination was given, (ii) such information as may reasonably be required by the corporation to determine the eligibility of such proposed nominee to serve as an independent director or audit committee financial expert of the corporation under applicable law, securities exchange rule or regulation, or any publicly-disclosed corporate governance guideline or committee charter of the corporation, and (iii) such other information that could be deemed material to a reasonable stockholder’s understanding of the independence, or lack thereof, of such nominee. The nominee must furnish such information to the secretary of the corporation within ten (10) days of his or her receipt of the corporation’s written request for such information. In the event such nominee fails to furnish such information within ten (10) days of such nominee’s receipt of the corporation’s request for such information, such stockholder’s nomination of such person shall not be considered in proper form pursuant to this Section 2.4(b).
(4) Without exception, no person shall be eligible for election or re-election as a director of the corporation at an annual meeting of stockholders unless nominated in accordance with the provisions set forth in this Section 2.4(b). In addition, a nominee shall not be eligible for election or re-election if a stockholder or Stockholder Associated Person, as applicable, takes action contrary to the representations made in the Nominee Solicitation Statement applicable to such nominee or if the Nominee Solicitation Statement applicable to such nominee contains an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact necessary to make the statements therein not misleading. The chairperson of the annual meeting shall, if the facts warrant, determine and declare at the annual meeting that a nomination was not made in accordance with the provisions prescribed by these bylaws, and if the chairperson should so determine, he or she shall so declare at the annual meeting, and the defective nomination shall be disregarded.
(c) Advance Notice of Director Nominations at Special Meetings.
(1) For a special meeting of stockholders at which directors are to be elected or re-elected, nominations of persons for election or re-election to the board of directors shall be made only: (i) by or at the direction of the board of directors, or (ii) by any stockholder of the corporation who: (A) is a stockholder of record at the time of the giving of the notice required by this Section 2.4(c) and on the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to vote at the special meeting, and (B) delivers a timely written notice of the nomination to the secretary of the corporation that includes the information set forth in Sections 2.4(b)(ii) and (iii) above. To be timely, such notice must be received by the secretary at the principal executive offices of the corporation not earlier than the ninetieth (90th) day prior to the special meeting nor later than the close of business on the later of: (i) the ninetieth (90th) day prior to such special meeting, or (ii) or the tenth (10th) day following the day on which Public Announcement is first made of the date of the special meeting and of the nominees proposed by the board of directors to be elected or re-elected at such meeting; provided, however, that in no event shall the Public Announcement of an adjournment or postponement of a special meeting commence a new time period (or extend any time period) for the giving of a stockholder’s notice as described above. A person shall not be eligible for election or re-election as a director at a special meeting unless the person is nominated: (i) by or at the direction of the board of directors, or (ii) by a stockholder in accordance with the notice procedures set forth in this Section 2.4(c). In addition, a nominee shall not be eligible for election or re-election if a stockholder or Stockholder Associated Person, as applicable, takes action contrary to the representations made in the Nominee Solicitation Statement applicable to such nominee or if the Nominee Solicitation Statement applicable to such nominee contains an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact necessary to make the statements therein not misleading.
(2) The chairperson of the special meeting shall, if the facts warrant, determine and declare at the meeting that a nomination or business was not made in accordance with the procedures prescribed by these bylaws, and if the chairperson should so determine, he or she shall so declare at the meeting, and the defective nomination or business shall be disregarded.
(d) Other Requirements and Rights. In addition to the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.4, a stockholder must also comply with all applicable requirements of state law and of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations thereunder with respect to the matters set forth in this Section 2.4. Nothing in this Section 2.4 shall be deemed to affect any rights of:
(1) a stockholder to request inclusion of proposals in the corporation’s proxy statement pursuant to Rule 14a-8 (or any successor provision) under the Exchange Act; or
(2) the corporation to omit a proposal from the corporation’s proxy statement pursuant to Rule 14a-8 (or any successor provision) under the Exchange Act.
2.5 Notice of Meetings.
All notices of meetings of stockholders will be sent or otherwise given in accordance with Article VI of these bylaws not less than ten (10) nor more than sixty (60) days before the date of the meeting. The notice will specify the place (if any), date, and hour of the meeting and the means of remote communications, if any, by which stockholders and proxyholders may be deemed to be present in person and vote at the meeting and: (i) in the case of a special meeting, the general nature of the business to be transacted (no business other than that specified in the notice may be transacted), or (ii) in the case of the annual meeting, those matters which the board of directors, at the time of giving the notice, intends to present for action by the stockholders (but any matter properly may be presented at the meeting for such action). The notice of any meeting at which directors are to be elected will include the name of any nominee or nominees who, at the time of the notice, the board of directors intends to present for election. Any previously scheduled meeting of the stockholders may be postponed, and, except for meetings of stockholders called by the board of directors pursuant to paragraph (c) of Section 2.4 of these bylaws (which meetings may be cancelled only on the terms provided in paragraph (c) of Section 2.4 of these bylaws) or if the articles of incorporation otherwise provide, any meeting of the stockholders may be cancelled, by resolution of the board of directors upon public notice given prior to the date previously scheduled for such meeting of stockholders.
2.6 Quorum.
(a) The holders of a majority of the voting power of the class or series, or classes or series, issued and outstanding and entitled to vote, present in person or represented by proxy, regardless of whether the proxy has authority to vote on all matters, shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business at all meetings of the stockholders. Except as otherwise provided in the articles of incorporation, these bylaws or the Nevada Revised Statutes, where a separate vote by a class or series, or classes or series, is required, a majority of the voting power of such class or series, or classes or series, present in person or represented by proxy, regardless of whether the proxy has authority to vote on all matters, shall constitute a quorum entitled to take action with respect to that vote on that matter.
(b) If a quorum is not present or represented at any meeting of the stockholders, then either: (i) the chairperson of the meeting, or (ii) the stockholders entitled to vote at the meeting, present in person or represented by proxy, shall have power to adjourn the meeting from time to time in accordance with Section 2.7, without notice other than announcement at the meeting, until a quorum is present or represented. At such adjourned meeting at which a quorum is present or represented, any business may be transacted that might have been transacted at the meeting as originally noticed.
2.7 Adjournments.
If a quorum is not present or represented at any meeting of stockholders, a majority of the stockholders present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote, though less than a quorum, or the chairperson of such meeting, shall be entitled to adjourn such meeting from time to time, without notice other than announcement at the meeting, until a quorum shall be present or represented. When a meeting is adjourned to another place, date or time, notice need not be given of the adjourned meeting if the date, time and place, if any, thereof and the means of remote communication, if any, by which stockholders and proxyholders may be deemed to be present in person and vote at such adjourned meeting are announced at the meeting at which the adjournment is taken; provided, however, that if the date of any adjourned meeting is more than thirty (30) days after the date for which the meeting was originally noticed, or if a new record date is fixed for the adjourned meeting, written notice of the place, if any, date, time and means of remote communications, if any, of the adjourned meeting shall be given in conformity with the provisions of these bylaws. At any adjourned meeting, any business may be transacted that might have been transacted at the original meeting.
2.8 Organization and Conduct of Business.
(a) Meetings of stockholders shall be presided over by the chairman of the board of directors, if any, or in his or her absence by a person designated by the board of directors, or, in the absence of a person so designated by the board of directors, by the chief executive officer, or in his or her absence by the chief financial officer, or in his or her absence by the secretary, if any, or in his or her absence by a chairman chosen at the meeting by the vote of a majority in interest of the stockholders present in person or represented by proxy and entitled to vote thereat. The secretary, or in his or her absence, an assistant secretary, or, in the absence of the secretary and all assistant secretaries, a person whom the chairman of the meeting will appoint, will act as secretary of the meeting and keep a record of the proceedings thereof.
(b) The board of directors will be entitled to make such rules or regulations for the conduct of meetings of stockholders as it will deem necessary, appropriate or convenient. Subject to such rules and regulations of the board of directors, if any, the chairman of the meeting will have the right and authority to prescribe such rules, regulations and procedures and to do all such acts as, in the judgment of such chairman, are necessary, appropriate or convenient for the proper conduct of the meeting, including, without limitation, establishing an agenda or order of business for the meeting, rules and procedures for maintaining order at the meeting and the safety of those present, limitations on participation in such meeting to stockholders of record of the corporation and their duly authorized and constituted proxies, and such other persons as the chairman will permit, restrictions on entry to the meeting after the time fixed for the commencement thereof, limitations on the time allotted to questions or comments by participants and regulation of the opening and closing of the polls for balloting and matters which are to be voted on by ballot. Unless and to the extent determined by the board of directors or the chairman of the meeting, meetings of stockholders will not be required to be held in accordance with rules of parliamentary procedure.
2.9 Voting.
(a) Except as otherwise provided in the articles of incorporation, these bylaws or the Nevada Revised Statutes, each stockholder will be entitled to one vote for each share of capital stock registered in such stockholder’s name on the books of the corporation on the record date fixed for determination of stockholders entitled to vote at such meeting. Any stockholder entitled to vote on any matter may vote part of such stockholder’s shares in favor of the proposal and refrain from voting part or all of such stockholder’s remaining shares or, except when the matter is the election of directors and plurality voting applies, may vote part or all of them against the proposal. If the stockholder fails to specify the number of shares which the stockholder is voting affirmatively, it will be conclusively presumed that the stockholder’s vote is with respect to all shares which the stockholder is entitled to vote. Voting at meetings of stockholders, on matters other than the election of directors, need not be by written ballot unless the holders of a majority of the voting power of the outstanding shares of stock entitled to vote at the meeting present in person or by proxy at such meeting shall so determine.
(b) Except as otherwise required by the articles of incorporation, these bylaws or the Nevada Revised Statutes, in all matters other than the election of directors, an action shall be approved by, and shall be the act of, the stockholders if the number of votes cast in favor of the action exceeds the number of votes cast in opposition to the action. Except as otherwise required by the articles of incorporation, these bylaws or the Nevada Revised Statutes, directors shall be elected at the annual meeting of stockholders by a plurality of the votes cast by stockholders present in person or represented by proxy, regardless of whether the proxy has authority to vote on all matters, at the meeting and entitled to vote on the election of directors. Except as otherwise required by the articles of incorporation, these bylaws or the Nevada Revised Statutes, where a separate vote by a class or series or classes or series is required, in all matters other than the election of directors, an act by the stockholders of each class or series, or classes or series, present in person or represented by proxy, regardless of whether the proxy has authority to vote on all matters, at the meeting, shall be the act of such class or series, or classes or series, if a majority of the voting power of a quorum of each class or series, or classes or series, votes for the action.
2.10 Stockholder Action by Written Consent.
Subject to the rights of the holders of the shares of any series of preferred stock or any other class of stock or series thereof having a preference over the common stock as to dividends or upon liquidation, any action required or permitted to be taken by the stockholders of the corporation must be effected at a duly called annual or special meeting of the stockholders of the corporation and may not be effected by any consent in writing by any such stockholders.
2.11 Record Dates.
(a) For purposes of determining the stockholders entitled to notice of any meeting or to vote thereat, the board of directors may fix a record date which will not precede the date upon which the resolution fixing the record date is adopted by the board of directors and will not be more than sixty (60) days nor less than ten (10) days before the date of any such meeting, and in such event only stockholders of record on the date so fixed are entitled to notice and to vote, notwithstanding any transfer of any shares on the books of the corporation after the record date, except as otherwise provided in the articles of incorporation, these bylaws, any agreement or the Nevada Revised Statutes. If the board of directors does not so fix a record date, the record date for determining stockholders entitled to notice of or to vote at a meeting of stockholders will be at the close of business on the day next preceding the day on which notice is given, or, if notice is waived, at the close of business on the day next preceding the day on which the meeting is held. A determination of stockholders of record entitled to notice of or to vote at a meeting of stockholders will apply to any adjournment of the meeting unless the board of directors fixes a new record date for the adjourned meeting, but the board of directors will fix a new record date if the meeting is adjourned for more than thirty (30) days from the date set for the original meeting.
(b) For purposes of determining the stockholders entitled to receive payment of any dividend or other distribution or allotment of any rights or the stockholders entitled to exercise any rights in respect of any other lawful action, the board of directors may fix a record date, which will not be more than sixty (60) days before any such action, and which record date will not precede the date upon which the resolution fixing the record date is adopted. In that case, only stockholders of record at the close of business on the date so fixed are entitled to receive the dividend, distribution or allotment of rights, or to exercise such rights, as the case may be, notwithstanding any transfer of any shares on the books of the corporation after the record date so fixed, except as otherwise provided in the articles of incorporation, these bylaws, any agreement or the Nevada Revised Statutes. If the board of directors does not so fix a record date, then the record date for determining stockholders for any such purpose will be at the close of business on the day on which the board of directors adopts the applicable resolution
2.12 Proxies.
Except as otherwise provided in these bylaws, very person entitled to vote for directors, or on any other matter, shall have the right to do so either in person or by one or more agents authorized by a written proxy, which may be in the form of a facsimile or other means of electronic transmission, signed by the person and submitted to the secretary of the corporation or the corporation’s proxy solicitor, but no such proxy will be voted or acted upon after six (6) months from its date of creation, unless the proxy provides for a longer period; provided however that in no event shall such period exceed seven (7) years. A proxy will be deemed signed if the stockholder’s name is placed on the proxy (whether by manual signature, typewriting, facsimile signature or otherwise) by the stockholder or the stockholder’s attorney-in-fact or, in the case of an electronically transmitted proxy, the submission has been properly authorized. A duly executed proxy will be irrevocable if it states that it is irrevocable and if, and only as long as, it is coupled with an interest sufficient in law to support an irrevocable power. A stockholder may revoke any proxy which is not irrevocable by attending the meeting and voting in person or by filing an instrument in writing revoking the proxy or by submitting another duly executed proxy bearing a later date with the secretary. A proxy is not revoked by the death or incapacity of the maker unless, before the vote is counted, written notice of such death or incapacity is received by the corporation.
2.13 Stockholder Lists.
The officer who has charge of the stock ledger of the corporation shall prepare and make, at least ten (10) days before every meeting of stockholders, a complete list of the stockholders entitled to vote at the meeting; provided, however, if the record date for determining the stockholders entitled to vote is less than ten (10) days before the meeting date, the list shall reflect the stockholders entitled to vote as of the tenth day before the meeting date. The stockholder list shall be arranged in alphabetical order and show the address of each stockholder and the number of shares registered in the name of each stockholder. The corporation shall not be required to include electronic mail addresses or other electronic contact information on such list. Such list shall be open to the examination of any stockholder for any purpose germane to the meeting for a period of at least ten (10) days prior to the meeting: (i) on a reasonably accessible electronic network, provided that the information required to gain access to such list is provided with the notice of the meeting, or (ii) during ordinary business hours, at the corporation’s principal place of business. In the event that the corporation determines to make the list available on an electronic network, the corporation may take reasonable steps to ensure that such information is available only to stockholders of the corporation. If the meeting is to be held at a place, then the list shall be produced and kept at the time and place of the meeting during the whole time thereof, and may be examined by any stockholder who is present. If the meeting is to be held solely by means of remote communication, then the list shall also be open to the examination of any stockholder during the whole time of the meeting on a reasonably accessible electronic network, and the information required to access such list shall be provided with the notice of the meeting. Such list shall presumptively determine the identity of the stockholders entitled to vote at the meeting and the number of shares held by each of them.
2.14 Inspectors of Elections.
Before any meeting of stockholders, the board of directors will appoint an inspector or inspectors of election to act at the meeting or its adjournment. The number of inspectors will be either one (1) or three (3). If any person appointed as inspector fails to appear or fails or refuses to act, then the chairman of the meeting may, and upon the request of any stockholder or a stockholder’s proxy will, appoint a person to fill that vacancy. Such inspectors will: (i) determine the number of shares outstanding and the voting power of each, the number of shares represented at the meeting, the existence of a quorum, and the validity of proxies; (ii) receive votes and ballots; (iii) hear and determine all challenges and questions in any way arising in connection with the votes and ballots submitted that may be resolved by an inspector of elections during a review and challenge process; and (iv) count and tabulate all votes and ballots. The inspectors of election will perform their duties impartially, in good faith, to the best of their ability and as expeditiously as is practical. If there are three (3) inspectors of election, the decision, act or certificate of a majority is effective in all respects as the decision, act or certificate of all. Any report or certificate made by the inspectors of election is prima facie evidence of the facts stated therein.
ARTICLE III
DIRECTORS
3.1 Powers.
The business and affairs of the corporation shall be managed and exercised by or under the direction of the board of directors, except as may be otherwise provided in the Nevada Revised Statutes, the articles of incorporation or these bylaws to the extent these bylaws relate to action required to be approved by the stockholders.
3.2 Number, Election, Term and Qualifications.
The board of directors shall consist of no less than one member and no more than nine members, each of whom shall be a natural person; provided, however, that, unless the articles of incorporation, these bylaws or the Nevada Revised Statutes provide otherwise, the board of directors may change the authorized number of directors to a number outside the range specified in this Section 3.2. Within such range, the number of directors that shall constitute the entire board of directors shall be fixed from time to time by resolution adopted by a majority of the directors of the corporation then in office. No decrease in the number of authorized directors shall have the effect of removing any director before that director’s term of office expires. Except as otherwise provided in Section 3.3, directors shall be elected at each annual meeting of the stockholders and shall hold office until such director’s successor is duly elected and qualified or until such director’s earlier resignation, removal, death or incapacity.

A resignation is effective when the resignation is delivered unless the resignation specifies a later effective date or an effective date determined upon the happening of an event or events. Acceptance of such resignation shall not be necessary to make it effective. Any director may be removed from the board of directors by the affirmative vote of the holders of two-thirds (2/3) of the voting power of the capital stock issued and outstanding then entitled to vote at an election of directors.

Such committee or committees shall have such name or names as may be determined from time to time by resolution adopted by the board of directors. Each committee shall keep regular minutes of its meetings and make such reports to the board of directors as the board of directors may request or the charter of such committee may then require.

A majority of the directors present, whether or not constituting a quorum, may adjourn any meeting to another time and place.

Unless otherwise restricted by the articles of incorporation or these bylaws, and except as otherwise provided in the Nevada Revised Statutes, any action required or permitted to be taken at any meeting of the board of directors, or of any committee thereof, may be taken without a meeting if, before or after the action, all members of the board of directors or committee, as the case may be, consent thereto in writing or by electronic transmission to that action; provided however, that, if such consent is effected by electronic transmission, such electronic transmission was authorized by the director.

STOCK
5.1 Stock Certificates, Partly-Paid Shares.
(a) The shares of the corporation shall be represented by certificates, provided that the board of directors may provide by resolution or resolutions that some or all of any or all classes or series of its stock shall be uncertificated shares. Any such resolution shall not apply to shares represented by a certificate until such certificate is surrendered to the corporation. Every holder of stock represented by certificates, and upon request every holder of uncertificated shares, shall be entitled to have a certificate representing the number of shares registered in certificate form signed by or in the name of the corporation by: (i) the chairperson of the board of directors or vice-chairperson of the board of directors, (ii) the chief executive officer, president or a vice-president, (iii) the chief executive officer or an assistant treasurer, or (iv) the secretary or an assistant secretary of the corporation. Any or all of the signatures on the certificate may be a facsimile. In case any officer, transfer agent or registrar who has signed or whose facsimile signature has been placed upon a certificate has ceased to be such officer, transfer agent or registrar before such certificate is issued, it may be issued by the corporation with the same effect as if such person were such officer, transfer agent or registrar at the date of issue. The corporation shall not have power to issue a certificate in bearer form.
(b) The corporation may issue the whole or any part of its shares as partly paid and subject to call for the remainder of the consideration to be paid therefor. Upon the face or back of each stock certificate issued to represent any such partly-paid shares, or upon the books and records of the corporation in the case of uncertificated partly-paid shares, the total amount of the consideration to be paid therefor and the amount paid thereon shall be stated. Upon the declaration of any dividend on fully-paid shares, the corporation shall declare a dividend upon partly-paid shares of the same class, but only upon the basis of the percentage of the consideration actually paid thereon.
5.2 Special Designation on Certificates.
If the corporation is authorized to issue more than one class of stock or more than one series of any class, then the powers, designations, preferences, rights and privileges of each class of stock or series thereof, and the qualifications, limitations or restrictions of such class of stock or series thereof, shall be set forth in full or summarized on the face or back of the certificate that the corporation shall issue to represent such class or series of stock; provided, however, that, except as otherwise provided in the Nevada Revised Statutes, in lieu of the foregoing requirements, there may be set forth, on the face or back of the certificate representing such class or series of stock, a statement that the corporation will furnish without charge to each stockholder who so requests, the powers, designations, preferences, rights and privileges of each class of stock or series thereof and the qualifications, limitations or restrictions of such class of stock or series thereof. Within a reasonable time after the issuance or transfer of uncertificated stock, the corporation shall send to the registered owner thereof a written notice containing (i) the information required to be set forth or stated on certificates pursuant to this Section 5.2 and the Nevada Revised Statutes, and (ii) a statement that the corporation will furnish without charge to each stockholder who so requests the powers, designations, preferences, rights and privileges of each class of stock or series thereof and the qualifications, limitations or restrictions of such class of stock or series thereof.

The corporation, directly or through its transfer or exchange agent, may issue a new share certificate or new certificate for any other security in the place of any certificate theretofore issued by it, alleged to have been lost, stolen or destroyed, and the corporation, directly or through its transfer or exchange agent, may require the owner of the lost, stolen or destroyed certificate or the owner’s legal representative to give the corporation a bond (or other adequate security) sufficient to indemnify it against any claim that may be made against it (including any expense or liability) on account of the alleged loss, theft or destruction of any such certificate or the issuance of such new certificate. The board of directors may adopt such other provisions and restrictions with reference to lost certificates, not inconsistent with applicable law, as appropriate.

The board of directors may set apart out of any of the funds of the corporation available for dividends a reserve or reserves for any proper purpose and may abolish any such reserve.
5.5 Transfers of Stock.
Transfers of record of shares of stock of the corporation shall be made upon the corporation’s books by the holders thereof, in person or by an attorney duly authorized, and, if such stock is certificated, upon the surrender of a certificate or certificates for a like number of shares, properly endorsed or accompanied by proper evidence of succession, assignation or authority to transfer; provided, however, that such succession, assignment or authority to transfer is not prohibited by the articles of incorporation, these bylaws, any contract or applicable law.

ARTICLE VI
MANNER OF GIVING NOTICE AND WAIVER
6.1 Notice to Directors and Stockholders.
Whenever, under the articles of incorporation, these bylaws or the Nevada Revised Statutes, written notice is required to be given to any director or stockholder, written notice, if mailed, is given when deposited in the United States mail, postage prepaid, directed to the director or stockholder at such director’s or stockholder’s address as it appears on the corporation’s records. An affidavit of the secretary or an assistant secretary of the corporation or of the transfer agent or other agent of the corporation that the notice has been given shall, in the absence of fraud, be prima facie evidence of the facts stated therein.
6.2 Notice by Electronic Transmission.
Without limiting the manner by which notice otherwise may be given effectively to directors and stockholders pursuant to the articles of incorporation, these bylaws or the Nevada Revised Statutes, any notice to stockholders given by the corporation under any provision of the articles of incorporation, these bylaws or the Nevada Revised Statutes shall be effective if given by a form of electronic transmission consented to by the director or stockholder to whom the notice is given. Any such consent shall be revocable by the director or stockholder by written notice to the corporation. Any such consent shall be deemed revoked if:
(i) the corporation is unable to deliver by electronic transmission two consecutive notices given by the corporation in accordance with such consent; and
(ii) such inability becomes known to the secretary or an assistant secretary of the corporation or to the transfer agent, or other person responsible for the giving of notice.
However, the inadvertent failure to treat such inability as a revocation shall not invalidate any meeting or other action.
Any notice given pursuant to the preceding paragraph shall be deemed given:
(i) if by facsimile telecommunication, when directed to a number at which the director or stockholder has consented to receive notice;
(ii) if by electronic mail, when directed to an electronic mail address at which the director or stockholder has consented to receive notice;
(iii) if by a posting on an electronic network together with separate notice to the director or stockholder of such specific posting, upon the later of: (a) such posting, and (b) the giving of such separate notice; and
(iv) if by any other form of electronic transmission, when directed to the director or stockholder.
An affidavit of the secretary or an assistant secretary of the corporation, or of the transfer agent or other agent of the corporation, that the notice has been given by a form of electronic transmission shall, in the absence of fraud, be prima facie evidence of the facts stated therein.
An “electronic transmission” means any form of communication, not directly involving the physical transmission of paper, that creates a record that may be retained, retrieved, and reviewed by a recipient thereof, and that may be directly reproduced in paper form by such a recipient through an automated process.
6.3 Notice to Stockholders Sharing and Address.
Except as otherwise prohibited by the Nevada Revised Statutes, without limiting the manner by which notice otherwise may be given effectively to stockholders, any notice to stockholders given by the corporation under the provisions of the articles of incorporation, these bylaws or the Nevada Revised Statutes shall be effective if given by a single written notice to stockholders who share an address if consented to by the stockholders at the address to whom such notice is given. Any such consent shall be revocable by the stockholder by written notice to the corporation. Any stockholder who fails to object in writing to the corporation, within sixty (60) days of having been given written notice by the corporation of its intention to send the single notice, shall be deemed to have consented to receiving such single written notice.
6.4 Notice to Person With Whom Communication is Unlawful.
Whenever notice is required to be given, under the articles of incorporation, these bylaws or the Nevada Revised Statutes, to any person with whom communication is unlawful, the giving of such notice to such person shall not be required and there shall be no duty to apply to any governmental authority or agency for a license or permit to give such notice to such person. Any action or meeting which shall be taken or held without notice to any such person with whom communication is unlawful shall have the same force and effect as if such notice had been duly given. In the event that the action taken by the corporation is such as to require the filing of a certificate under the Nevada Revised Statutes, the certificate shall state, if such is the fact and if notice is required, that notice was given to all persons entitled to receive notice except such persons with whom communication is unlawful.
6.5 Waiver of Notice.
Whenever notice is required to be given to stockholders, directors or other persons under the articles of incorporation, these bylaws or the Nevada Revised Statutes, a written waiver, signed by the person entitled to notice, or a waiver by electronic transmission by the person entitled to notice, whether before or after the time of the event for which notice is to be given, shall be deemed equivalent to notice. Attendance of a person at a meeting shall constitute a waiver of notice of such meeting, except when the person attends a meeting solely for the express purpose of objecting, at the beginning of the meeting, to the transaction of any business because the meeting is not lawfully called or convened. Neither the business to be transacted at, nor the purpose of, any regular or special meeting of the stockholders or the board of directors, as the case may be, need be specified in any written waiver of notice or any waiver by electronic transmission unless so required by the articles of incorporation or these bylaws.

POWER3 MEDICAL PRODUCTS, INC.
2011 STOCK INCENTIVE PLAN
1. Purpose.
The purpose of the 2011 Stock Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) of Power3 Medical Products, Inc., a New York corporation (the “Company”), is to promote and closely align the interests of officers, directors and employees of, and consultants to, the Company and its shareholders by providing such individuals with stock-based compensation and other performance-based compensation. The Plan is intended to strengthen the Company’s ability to reward officer, director, employee and consultant performance that enhances long-term shareholder value, increase officer, director, employee and consultant stock ownership through performance-based compensation plans, and strengthen the Company’s ability to attract and retain outstanding officers, directors, employees and consultants.
Except where the context otherwise requires or as specifically provided herein, the term “Company” shall include any of the Company’s present or future parent or subsidiary corporations as defined in Section 424 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and any regulations promulgated thereunder (the “Code”), and any other business venture or affiliate in which the Company has a controlling interest.
2. Administration.
(a) Administration by Board. The Plan will be administered by the board of directors of the Company (the “Board”). The Board will have full and final authority to operate, manage and administer the Plan on behalf of the Company. To the extent required for transactions under the Plan to qualify for the exemptions available under Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), all actions relating to Awards (as defined below) to persons subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act may be taken by the Board or a Committee (as defined below) composed of two or more members, each of whom is a “non-employee director” within the meaning of Rule 16b-3 under the Exchange Act. To the extent required for compensation realized from Awards under the Plan to be deductible by the Company pursuant to Section 162(m) of the Code (“Section 162(m)”), such Awards may be granted by the Board or a Committee composed of two or more members, each of whom is an “outside director” within the meaning of Section 162(m).
(b) Authority of Board. Except as provided in the Plan, the Board shall be authorized and empowered to take all actions necessary or desirable, in its sole discretion, in connection with the administration of the Plan, including, without limitation, the following:
(1) to prescribe, amend and rescind rules and regulations relating to the Plan and any Awards and to define terms not otherwise defined herein;
(2) to determine which persons are Participants (as defined below), to which of such Participants, if any, Awards shall be granted hereunder, and the timing of any such Awards;
(3) to grant Awards to Participants and determine the terms and conditions thereof, including the number of shares of Common Stock subject to Awards and the circumstances under which Awards become exercisable or vested or are forfeited or expire;
(4) to establish, verify the extent of satisfaction of, adjust, reduce or waive any performance goals or other conditions applicable to the grant, issuance, exercisability, vesting and/or ability to retain any Award;
(5) to prescribe and amend the terms and conditions of the agreements or other documents evidencing Awards made under this Plan, which terms and conditions may differ among individual Awards and Participants;
(6) to interpret and construe this Plan, any rules and regulations under this Plan, and the terms and conditions of any Award granted hereunder, and to make exceptions to any such provisions in good faith and for the benefit of the Company; and
(7) to make all other determinations deemed necessary or advisable for the administration of the Plan.
All decisions and interpretations by the Board shall be made in the Board’s sole discretion and shall be final, binding and conclusive on all persons having or claiming any interest in the Plan or in any Award. No member or former member of the Board acting pursuant to the authority delegated by the Board shall be liable for any action or determination made in good faith with respect to the Plan.
(c) Appointment of Committees. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Board may delegate any or all of its powers under the Plan to one or more committees or subcommittees of the Board (a “Committee”). Action of a Committee may be taken by the vote of a majority of its members or by the written consent of a majority of its members. All decisions by a Committee shall be made in the Committee’s sole discretion and shall be final, binding and conclusive on all persons having or claiming any interest in the Plan or in any Award. A Committee may allocate among its members and delegate to any director of the Company who is not a member of the Committee any of its administrative responsibilities. All references in the Plan to the “Board” shall mean the Board or one or more Committees to the extent the Board has delegated any of its powers or authority under the Plan to such Committee.
3. Individuals Eligible for Awards.
Awards under the Plan may be made to the following individuals: (i) employees, officers or directors of the Company, and (ii) consultants or advisors to the Company. Each individual who is eligible to participate in the Plan or has been granted an Award under the Plan shall be deemed a “Participant.”
4. Awards Available Under the Plan.
Awards may be made under the Plan in the form of: (i) options, (ii) warrants, (iii) stock appreciation rights, (iv) restricted stock, (v) restricted stock units, (vi) unrestricted stock, and (vii) other equity-based or equity-related awards that the Board determines to be consistent with the purpose of the Plan and the interests of the Company (each award together with the written agreement containing the terms and conditions of the award, an “Award”).
5. Stock Available for Awards.
(a) Number of Shares. Awards may be made under the Plan for up to 50,000,000 shares of common stock, $.001 par value per share, of the Company (the “Common Stock”). If: (i) any Award expires or is terminated, surrendered or canceled without having been fully exercised or is forfeited in whole or in part (including as the result of shares of Common Stock subject to such Award being repurchased by the Company at the original issuance price pursuant to a contractual repurchase right), (ii) any Award results in any Common Stock not being issued (including, without limitation, when an Award is settled for cash), (iii) shares of Common Stock are surrendered or withheld from any Award to satisfy a Participant’s income tax or other withholding obligation, or (iv) shares of Common Stock owned by a Participant are tendered to pay the exercise price of any Award granted under the Plan, then in each such case the shares of Common Stock covered by such expired, terminated, canceled or forfeited Award or that are equal to the number of shares surrendered, withheld or tendered shall again become available for issuance pursuant to Awards granted or to be granted under the Plan, subject, however, in the case of Incentive Stock Options (as hereinafter defined), to any limitations under the Code. Shares issued under the Plan may consist in whole or in part of authorized but unissued shares or treasury shares.
(b) Limitations on Awards. Except as provided under the Plan and under the terms of any Award: (i) there shall be no limit on the number or the value of shares of Common Stock that may be subject to Awards to any individual under the Plan, and (ii) there shall be no limit on the amount of cash, securities (other than shares of Common Stock as provided herein) or other property that may be delivered pursuant to any Award. The limitations on Awards described in this Section 5(b) shall be construed and applied consistently with Section 162(m) of the Code (“Section 162(m)”) to the extent any Awards are intended to qualify as “performance-based compensation” under Section 162(m).
(c) Substitute Awards. The Board may grant Awards in tandem with or in substitution for any other Award granted under this Plan or any award granted under any other plan of the Company. The Board may grant Awards under the Plan in substitution for stock and stock-based awards held by employees of another corporation who concurrently become employees of the Company as a result of a merger or consolidation of the employing corporation with the Company or the acquisition by the Company of property or stock of the employing corporation. The Board may direct that the substitute Awards be granted on such terms and conditions as the Board considers appropriate in the circumstances.
6. Options.
(a) General. The Board may grant options to purchase Common Stock (each, an “Option”) and determine the number of shares of Common Stock to be covered by each Option, the exercise price of each Option, and the conditions and limitations applicable to the exercise of each Option, including conditions relating to applicable federal or state securities laws, as it considers necessary or advisable. An Option that is not intended to be an Incentive Stock Option (as defined below) or that is intended to be an Incentive Stock Option but fails to so qualify, whether at the time of grant or thereafter, shall be designated a “Nonstatutory Stock Option”.
(b) Incentive Stock Options. An Option that the Board intends to be an “incentive stock option” as defined in Section 422 of the Code (an “Incentive Stock Option”) shall only be granted to employees of the Company, any of the Company’s present or future parent or subsidiary corporations as defined in Sections 424(e) or (f) of the Code and any other entities the employees of which are eligible to receive Incentive Stock Options under the Code, and shall be subject to and shall be construed consistently with the requirements of Section 422 of the Code. To the extent required for “incentive stock option” treatment under Section 422 of the Code, the aggregate fair market value as determined by, or in a manner approved by, the Board in good faith (“Fair Market Value”), determined as of the time of grant, of the shares of Common Stock with respect to which Incentive Stock Options granted under the Plan and any other plan of the Company become exercisable for the first time by a Participant during any calendar year shall not exceed $100,000. The Company shall have no liability to a Participant, or any other party, if an Option, or any part thereof, that is intended to be an Incentive Stock Option is not an Incentive Stock Option.
(c) Exercise Price. The Board shall establish the exercise price of an Option at the time each Option is granted and specify it in the applicable Award; provided, however, that if the Option granted is an Incentive Stock Option, the exercise price shall be not less than 100% of the fair market value of the Common Stock, as determined by the Board, at the time the Incentive Stock Option is granted. If an employee owns or is deemed to own, by reason of the attribution rules applicable under Section 424(d) of the Code, more than ten percent (10%) of the combined voting power of all classes of stock of the Company and an Incentive Stock Option is granted to such employee, the exercise price shall be no less than 110% of the fair market value of the Common Stock, as determined by the Board, at the time the Option is granted.
(d) Duration. Each Option shall be exercisable at such times and subject to such terms and conditions as the Board may specify in the applicable Award; provided, however, that no Option will be granted for a term in excess of 10 years. If an employee owns or is deemed to own, by reason of the attribution rules applicable under Section 424(d) of the Code, more than ten percent (10%) of the combined voting power of all classes of stock of the Company and an Incentive Stock Option is granted to such employee, the term of such Option shall be no more than five years from the date of grant.
(e) Exercisability; Rights of Stockholder. Options shall become vested and exercisable at such time or times, whether or not in installments, as shall be determined by the Board. In the alternative, the Board may specify that an Option shall become vested and exercisable upon the achievement of such performance goals, objectives and other conditions as it may establish at the time of grant. A Participant shall have the rights of a stockholder only as to shares of Common Stock acquired upon the exercise of an Option and not as to shares of Common Stock underlying unexercised Options.
(f) Restrictions. The Board shall determine, with respect to each Option to be granted, the nature and extent of the restrictions, if any, to be imposed on the shares of Common Stock that may be purchased thereunder. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Board may impose conditions restricting absolutely or conditionally the transferability of shares of Common Stock acquired through the exercise of Options for such periods, and subject to such conditions, including continued employment of the Participant by the Company, as the Board may determine.
(g) Method of Exercise. Options may be exercised in whole or in part by delivering written notice of exercise to the Company specifying the number of shares to be purchased and signed by the proper person, or by any other form of notice, including electronic notice, approved by the Board, together with payment in full of the aggregate exercise price for the number of shares for which the Option is exercised.
(h) Methods of Payment. Common Stock purchased upon the exercise of an Option granted under the Plan shall be paid for as specified in the applicable Award; provided, however, that if no such method of payment is specified in the Award, the Common Stock purchased upon the exercise of the Option may be paid for as follows:
(1) in cash or by check, payable to the order of the Company;
(2) if the shares of Common Stock underlying the Option are registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), except as the Board may, in its sole discretion, otherwise provide in an Award, by: (i) delivery of an irrevocable and unconditional undertaking by a creditworthy broker to deliver promptly to the Company sufficient funds to pay the exercise price and any required tax withholding, or (ii) delivery by the Participant to the Company of a copy of irrevocable and unconditional instructions to a creditworthy broker to deliver promptly to the Company the exercise price and any required tax withholding;
(3) if the shares of Common Stock underlying the Option are registered under the Securities Act, by delivery of such shares of Common Stock owned by the Participant valued at their Fair Market Value, provided: (i) such method of payment is then permitted under applicable law, (ii) such shares of Common Stock were owned by the Participant at least six months prior to such delivery, and (iii) such shares of Common Stock are not subject to any repurchase, forfeiture, unfulfilled vesting or other similar requirements or restrictions (any such shares satisfying all of the requirements set forth in subsections (i), (ii) and (iii), “Mature Shares”);
(4) by reducing the number of shares of Common Stock otherwise issuable under the Option to the Participant upon the exercise of the Option by a number of shares of Common Stock having a Fair Market Value equal to such aggregated exercise price; provided, however, that such method of payment is then permitted under applicable law;
(5) to the extent permitted by applicable law and by the Board, in its sole discretion, by: (i) delivery of a promissory note of the Participant to the Company on terms determined by the Board, or (ii) payment of such other lawful consideration as the Board may determine; or
(6) by any combination of the above permitted forms of payment.
The delivery of certificates representing the shares of Common Stock to be purchased pursuant to the exercise of an Option will be contingent upon receipt from the Participant (or a purchaser acting in his stead in accordance with the provisions of the Option) by the Company of the full purchase price for the shares and the fulfillment of any other requirements contained in the Option or imposed by applicable law.
7. Warrants.
(a) General. The Board may grant warrants to purchase Common Stock (each, a “Warrant”) and determine the number of shares of Common Stock to be covered by each Warrant, the exercise price of each Warrant, and the conditions and limitations applicable to the exercise of each Warrant, including conditions relating to applicable federal or state securities laws, as it considers necessary or advisable.
(b) Exercise Price. The Board shall establish the exercise price of a Warrant at the time each Warrant is granted and specify it in the applicable Award.
(c) Exercisability; Rights of Stockholder. Warrants shall become vested and exercisable at such time or times, whether or not in installments, as shall be determined by the Board. In the alternative, the Board may specify that a Warrant shall become vested and exercisable upon the achievement of such performance goals, objectives and other conditions as it may establish at the time of grant. A Participant shall have the rights of a stockholder only as to shares of Common Stock acquired upon the exercise of a Warrant and not as to shares of Common Stock underlying unexercised Warrants.
(d) Restrictions. The Board shall determine, with respect to each Warrant to be granted, the nature and extent of the restrictions, if any, to be imposed on the shares of Common Stock that may be purchased thereunder. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Board may impose conditions restricting absolutely or conditionally the transferability of shares of Common Stock acquired through the exercise of Warrants for such periods, and subject to such conditions, including continued employment of the Participant by the Company, as the Board may determine.
(e) Method of Exercise. Warrants may be exercised in whole or in part by delivering written notice of exercise to the Company specifying the number of shares to be purchased and signed by the proper person, or by any other form of notice, including electronic notice, approved by the Board, together with payment in full of the aggregate exercise price for the number of shares for which the Warrant is exercised.
(f) Methods of Payment. Common Stock purchased upon the exercise of a Warrant granted under the Plan shall be paid for as specified in the applicable Award; provided, however, that if no such method of payment is specified in the Award, the Common Stock purchased upon the exercise of the Warrant may be paid for as follows:
(1) in cash or by check, payable to the order of the Company;
(2) if the shares of Common Stock underlying the Warrant are registered under the Securities Act, except as the Board may, in its sole discretion, otherwise provide in an Award, by: (i) delivery of an irrevocable and unconditional undertaking by a creditworthy broker to deliver promptly to the Company sufficient funds to pay the exercise price and any required tax withholding, or (ii) delivery by the Participant to the Company of a copy of irrevocable and unconditional instructions to a creditworthy broker to deliver promptly to the Company the exercise price and any required tax withholding;
(3) if the shares of Common Stock underlying the Warrant are registered under the Securities Act, by delivery of such shares of Common Stock owned by the Participant valued at their Fair Market Value, provided: (i) such method of payment is then permitted under applicable law, (ii) such shares of Common Stock were owned by the Participant at least six months prior to such delivery, and (iii) such shares of Common Stock are not subject to any repurchase, forfeiture, unfulfilled vesting or other similar requirements or restrictions (any such shares satisfying all of the requirements set forth in subsections (i), (ii) and (iii), “Mature Shares”);
(4) by reducing the number of shares of Common Stock otherwise issuable under the Warrant to the Participant upon the exercise of the Warrant by a number of shares of Common Stock having a Fair Market Value equal to such aggregated exercise price; provided, however, that such method of payment is then permitted under applicable law;
(5) to the extent permitted by applicable law and by the Board, in its sole discretion, by: (i) delivery of a promissory note of the Participant to the Company on terms determined by the Board, or (ii) payment of such other lawful consideration as the Board may determine; or
(6) by any combination of the above permitted forms of payment.
The delivery of certificates representing the shares of Common Stock to be purchased pursuant to the exercise of a Warrant will be contingent upon receipt from the Participant (or a purchaser acting in his stead in accordance with the provisions of the Warrant) by the Company of the full purchase price for the shares and the fulfillment of any other requirements contained in the Warrant or imposed by applicable law.
8. Stock Appreciation Rights.
(a) General. The Board may grant Awards entitling the holder on exercise thereof to acquire: (i) a number of shares of Common Stock, (ii) an equivalent amount of cash, or (iii) a combination of Common Stock and cash, as determined by the Board in its sole discretion, determined in whole or in part by reference to the appreciation, from and after the date of grant, in the Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock (each, a “SAR”), with such rights and subject to such restrictions and conditions as the Board may determine at the time of grant.
(b) Exercise Price. The Board shall establish the exercise price at the time each SAR is granted and specify it in the applicable Award.
(c) Calculation of Appreciation. Upon exercise, the Participant shall receive a number of shares of Common Stock, an amount of cash, or a combination of Common Stock and cash, having an aggregate Fair Market Value equal to the product of: (i) the sum of: (x) the Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock on the date of the Participant’s request, less (y) the exercise price per share of Common Stock specified in such SAR, multiplied by (ii) the number of shares of Common Stock for which such SAR shall be exercised.
(d) Exercisability; Rights of Stockholder. SARs shall become vested and exercisable at such time or times, whether or not in installments, as shall be determined by the Board. In the alternative, the Board may specify that a SAR shall become vested and exercisable upon the achievement of such performance goals, objectives and other conditions as it may establish at the time of grant. A Participant shall have the rights of a stockholder only as to shares of Common Stock acquired upon the exercise of a SAR and not as to shares of Common Stock underlying unexercised SARs.
(e) Restrictions. The Board shall determine, with respect to each SAR to be granted, the nature and extent of the restrictions, if any, to be imposed on any shares of Common Stock that may be purchased thereunder. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Board may impose conditions restricting absolutely or conditionally the transferability of shares of Common Stock acquired through the exercise of SARs for such periods, and subject to such conditions, including continued employment of the Participant by the Company, as the Board may determine.
(f) Method of Exercise. SARs may be exercised in whole or in part by delivering written notice of exercise to the Company specifying the number of shares to be purchased and signed by the proper person, or by any other form of notice, including electronic notice, approved by the Board.
9. Restricted Stock.
(a) General. The Board may grant Awards entitling recipients to acquire, for such purchase price, if any, as may be determined by the Board, shares of Common Stock (“Restricted Stock”) with such rights and subject to such restrictions and conditions as the Board may determine at the time of grant.
(b) Acceptance of Award. A Participant who is granted Restricted Stock shall have no rights with respect to such Award unless the Participant shall have accepted the Award within 90 days (or such longer or shorter period of time as the Board may specify in the Award) following the date of the Award by making payment to the Company of the specified purchase price, if any, of the shares covered by the Award and by executing and delivering to the Company a written instrument in such form as the Board shall determine that sets forth the terms and conditions applicable to the Restricted Stock.
(c) Vesting of Restricted Stock. Shares of Restricted Stock shall become vested and exercisable at such time or times, whether or not in installments, as shall be determined by the Board. In the alternative, the Board may specify that the shares of Restricted Stock shall become vested and exercisable upon the achievement of such performance goals, objectives and other conditions as it may establish at the time of grant. Subsequent to such date or dates and/or the attainment of such pre-established performance goals, objectives and other conditions, the shares on which all restrictions have lapsed shall no longer be Restricted Stock and shall be deemed “vested.”
(d) Rights as a Stockholder. Upon complying with the provisions of this Section 9, a Participant shall have all the rights of a stockholder with respect to the Restricted Stock, including voting and dividend rights, subject to non-transferability restrictions and Company repurchase or forfeiture rights described in the Plan and subject to such other conditions contained in the Award. Unless the Board shall otherwise determine, certificates evidencing shares of Restricted Stock shall remain in the possession of the Company until such shares are vested as provided in Section 9(c) above.
(e) Waiver, Deferral and Reinvestment of Dividends. The written instrument evidencing the Award may require or permit the immediate payment, waiver, deferral or investment of dividends paid on the Restricted Stock.
10. Restricted Units.
(a) General. The Board may grant Awards entitling recipients to acquire in the future: (i) shares of Common Stock, (ii) an equivalent amount of cash, or (iii) a combination of shares of Common Stock and cash, as determined by the Board in its sole discretion, with such rights and subject to such restrictions and conditions as the Board may determine at the time of grant, (each, a “Restricted Unit”; together with Restricted Stock, a “Restricted Award”).
(b) Vesting of Restricted Units. Restricted Units shall become vested and exercisable at such time or times, whether or not in installments, as shall be determined by the Board. In the alternative, the Board may specify that a Restricted Unit shall become vested and exercisable upon the achievement of such performance goals, objectives and other conditions as it may establish at the time of grant.
(c) No Rights as Stockholder. A Participant holding Restricted Units shall not have the rights of a stockholder with respect to the shares of Common Stock, if any, issuable under such Restricted Units, unless and until such shares are issued to the Participant pursuant to the provisions of the Restricted Units and this Plan.
11. Unrestricted Stock.
The Board may grant Awards entitling recipients to acquire, for such purchase price, if any, as may be determined by the Board, shares of Common Stock free of any vesting restrictions or conditions under the Plan (“Unrestricted Stock”). Shares of Unrestricted Stock may be granted or sold in respect of past services or other valid consideration.
12. Other Stock-Based Awards.
The Board may grant other types of equity-based or equity-related Awards in such amounts and subject to such terms and conditions as the Board may determine. Such Awards may entail the transfer of actual shares of Common Stock to Participants or payment in cash or otherwise of amounts based on the value of shares of Common Stock, and may include, without limitation, Awards designed to comply with or take advantage of the applicable local laws of jurisdictions other than the United States.
13. Adjustments for Changes in Common Stock and Certain Other Events.
Awards shall be adjusted by the Company to address changes in capitalization, liquidation or dissolution events, reorganization and change in control events, and other similar events in the manner specified in the applicable Award; provided, however, that if no such methods of adjustment are provided in the Award, the Award shall be adjusted as follows:
(a) Changes in Capitalization. In the event of any stock split, reverse stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization, combination of shares, reclassification of shares, spin-off or other similar change in capitalization or event, or any distribution to holders of shares of Common Stock other than an ordinary cash dividend: (i) the number and class of securities available under this Plan, (ii) the limitations on Awards set forth in Section 5(b), (iii) the number and class of securities and exercise price per share subject to each Option, Warrant and SAR then outstanding, (iv) the repurchase price per share of Common Stock subject to each Restricted Award then outstanding, and (v) the terms of each other stock-based Award then outstanding, shall be adjusted appropriately by the Company, or substituted Awards may be made, if applicable, to the extent the Board shall determine, in good faith, that such an adjustment or substitution is necessary or appropriate. Any adjustment under this Section 13(a) shall become effective at the close of business on the date the subdivision or combination becomes effective, or as of the record date of such dividend, or in the event that no record date is fixed, upon the making of such dividend. If this Section 13(a) applies and Section 13(c) also applies to any event, Section 13(c) shall be applicable to such event, and this Section 13(a) shall not be applicable.
(b) Liquidation or Dissolution. In the event the shareholders of the Company approve a plan of complete liquidation or dissolution of the Company or an agreement for the sale or disposition by the Company of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets, the Board shall provide that: (i) except to the extent specifically provided to the contrary in any Award, all then unexercised Options, Warrants and SARs outstanding will: (A) become exercisable in full as of a specified time at least 10 business days prior to the effective date of such liquidation, dissolution, sale or disposition, and (B) terminate effective upon such liquidation, dissolution, sale or disposition, except to the extent exercised before such effective date, and (ii) except to the extent specifically provided in any Restricted Award, all restrictions and conditions on all Restricted Awards then outstanding shall automatically be deemed terminated or satisfied.
(c) Reorganization and Change in Control Events.
(1) Definitions.
(a) A “Reorganization Event” shall mean:
(i) any merger or consolidation of the Company with or into another entity as a result of which all of the outstanding shares of Common Stock are converted into or exchanged for the right to receive cash, securities or other property; or
(ii) any exchange of all of the outstanding shares of Common Stock for cash, securities or other property pursuant to a share exchange transaction.
(b) A “Change in Control Event” shall mean:
(i) the acquisition by an individual, entity or group within the meaning of Section 13(d)(3) or 14(d)(2) of the Exchange Act (each, a “Person”) of beneficial ownership of any capital stock of the Company if, after such acquisition, such Person beneficially owns (within the meaning of Rule 13d-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act) 30% or more of either (x) the then-outstanding shares of common stock of the Company (the “Outstanding Common Stock”) or (y) the combined voting power of the then-outstanding securities of the Company entitled to vote generally in the election of directors (the “Outstanding Voting Securities”); provided, however, that for purposes of this subsection (i), the following acquisitions shall not constitute a Change in Control Event: (A) any acquisition directly from the Company (excluding an acquisition pursuant to the exercise, conversion or exchange of any security exercisable for, convertible into or exchangeable for common stock or voting securities of the Company, unless the Person exercising, converting or exchanging such security acquired such security directly from the Company or an underwriter or agent of the Company), (B) any acquisition by any employee benefit plan or related trust sponsored or maintained by the Company or any corporation controlled by the Company, or (C) any acquisition by any corporation pursuant to a Business Combination (as defined in Section 13(c)(1)(b)(iii) below) that complies with clauses (x) and (y) of subsection (iii) of this definition;
(ii) an event that results in the Continuing Directors (as defined below) not constituting a majority of the Board (or, if applicable, the board of directors of a successor corporation to the Company). “Continuing Director” means, at any date, a member of the Board: (x) who was a member of the Board on the date of the initial adoption of this Plan by the Board, or (y) who was nominated or elected subsequent to such date by at least a majority of the directors who were Continuing Directors at the time of such nomination or election or whose election to the Board was recommended or endorsed by at least a majority of the directors who were Continuing Directors at the time of such nomination or election; provided, however, that there shall be excluded from this clause (y) any individual whose initial assumption of office occurred as a result of an actual or threatened election contest with respect to the election or removal of directors or other actual or threatened solicitation of proxies or consents, by or on behalf of a person other than the Board; or
(iii) the consummation of a merger, consolidation, reorganization, recapitalization or share exchange involving the Company or a sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company (a “Business Combination”), unless, immediately following such Business Combination, each of the following two conditions is satisfied: (x) all or substantially all of the individuals and entities who were the beneficial owners of the Outstanding Common Stock and Outstanding Voting Securities immediately prior to such Business Combination beneficially own, directly or indirectly, more than 50% of the then-outstanding shares of common stock and the combined voting power of the then-outstanding securities entitled to vote generally in the election of directors, respectively, of the resulting or acquiring corporation in such Business Combination, which shall include, without limitation, a corporation that as a result of such transaction owns the Company or all or substantially all of the Company’s assets either directly or through one or more subsidiaries (such resulting or acquiring corporation is referred to herein as the “Acquiring Corporation”) in substantially the same proportions as their ownership of the Outstanding Common Stock and Outstanding Voting Securities, respectively, immediately prior to such Business Combination, and (y) no Person (excluding the Acquiring Corporation or any employee benefit plan or related trust maintained or sponsored by the Company or by the Acquiring Corporation) beneficially owns, directly or indirectly, 30% or more of the then-outstanding shares of common stock of the Acquiring Corporation, or of the combined voting power of the then-outstanding securities of such corporation entitled to vote generally in the election of directors (except to the extent that such ownership existed prior to the Business Combination).
(2) Effect on Options, Warrants and SARs.
(a) Reorganization Event. Upon the occurrence of a Reorganization Event (regardless of whether such event also constitutes a Change in Control Event), or the execution by the Company of any agreement with respect to a Reorganization Event (regardless of whether such event will result in a Change in Control Event), the Board shall provide that all outstanding Options, Warrants and SARs shall be assumed, or equivalent options, warrants and stock appreciation rights shall be substituted, by the acquiring or succeeding corporation (or an affiliate thereof); provided, however, that if such Reorganization Event also constitutes a Change in Control Event, except to the extent specifically provided to the contrary in the instrument evidencing any Option, Warrant or SAR or any other agreement between a Participant and the Company, such assumed or substituted options, warrants and stock appreciation rights shall be immediately exercisable in full upon the occurrence of such Reorganization Event. For purposes hereof, an Option, Warrant or SAR shall be considered to be assumed if, following consummation of the Reorganization Event, the Option, Warrant or SAR confers the right to purchase, for each share of Common Stock subject to the Option, Warrant or SAR immediately prior to the consummation of the Reorganization Event, the consideration (whether cash, securities or other property) received as a result of the Reorganization Event by holders of Common Stock for each share of Common Stock held immediately prior to the consummation of the Reorganization Event (and if holders were offered a choice of consideration, the type of consideration chosen by the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of Common Stock); provided, however, that if the consideration received as a result of the Reorganization Event is not solely common stock of the acquiring or succeeding corporation (or an affiliate thereof), the Company may, with the consent of the acquiring or succeeding corporation (or an affiliate thereof), provide for the consideration to be received upon the exercise of Options, Warrants and SARs to consist solely of common stock of the acquiring or succeeding corporation (or an affiliate thereof) equivalent in fair market value to the per share consideration received by holders of outstanding shares of Common Stock as a result of the Reorganization Event.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the acquiring or succeeding corporation (or an affiliate thereof) does not agree to assume, or substitute for, such Options, Warrants and SARs, then the Board shall, upon written notice to the Participants, provide that all then unexercised Options, Warrants and SARs will become exercisable in full as of a specified time at least 10 business days prior to the effective date of the Reorganization Event and will terminate immediately prior to the consummation of such Reorganization Event, except to the extent exercised by the Participants before the consummation of such Reorganization Event; provided, however, that in the event of a Reorganization Event under the terms of which holders of Common Stock will receive upon consummation thereof a cash payment for each share of Common Stock surrendered pursuant to such Reorganization Event (the “Acquisition Price”), then the Board may instead provide that all outstanding Options, Warrants and SARs shall terminate upon consummation of such Reorganization Event and that each Participant shall receive, in exchange therefor, a cash payment equal to the amount (if any) by which: (A) the Acquisition Price multiplied by the number of shares of Common Stock subject to such outstanding Options, Warrants and SARs (whether or not then exercisable), exceeds (B) the aggregate exercise price of such Options, Warrants and SARs. To the extent all or any portion of an Option, Warrant or SAR becomes exercisable solely as a result of the first sentence of this paragraph, upon exercise of such Option, Warrant or SAR the Participant shall receive shares subject to a right of repurchase by the Company or its successor at the exercise price of the Option, Warrant or SAR. Such repurchase right: (X) shall lapse at the same rate as the Option, Warrant or SAR would have become exercisable under its terms, and (Y) shall not apply to any shares subject to the Option, Warrant or SAR that was exercisable under its terms without regard to the first sentence of this paragraph.
(b) Change in Control Event that is not a Reorganization Event. Upon the occurrence of a Change in Control Event that does not also constitute a Reorganization Event, except to the extent specifically provided to the contrary in any Option, Warrant or SAR Award, all Options, Warrants and SARs then outstanding shall automatically become immediately exercisable in full.
(3) Effect on Restricted Awards and Awards of Unrestricted Stock.
(a) Reorganization Event that is not a Change in Control Event. Upon the occurrence of a Reorganization Event that is not a Change in Control Event, the repurchase and other rights of the Company under each outstanding Restricted Award shall inure to the benefit of the Company’s successor and shall apply to the cash, securities or other property that the Common Stock was converted into or exchanged for pursuant to such Reorganization Event in the same manner and to the same extent as they applied to the Common Stock subject to such Restricted Award.
(b) Change in Control Event. Upon the occurrence of a Change in Control Event (regardless of whether such event also constitutes a Reorganization Event), all restrictions and conditions on all Restricted Awards then outstanding shall automatically be deemed terminated or satisfied.
(d) Notice of Adjustment. When any adjustment is required to be made under this Section 13, the Company shall promptly notify the Participant of such event and of the number of shares of Common Stock or other securities or property thereafter owned or that may be acquired under an Award.
(e) No Impairment. The Company and the Participant will not, by any voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms to be observed or performed hereunder by the Company or the Participant, respectively, but will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all the provisions of this Section 13 and in the taking of all such action as may be necessary or appropriate in order to protect the rights or the Company and the Participant against impairment.
14. Termination of Awards.
Awards shall terminate in the manner specified in the applicable Award; provided, however, that if no such methods of termination are specified in the Award, the Award shall terminate as follows:
(a) Termination by Death. If any Participant’s employment by, or other relationship with, the Company terminates by reason of death: (i) any Options, Warrants or SARs then owned by such Participant may thereafter be exercised, to the extent exercisable at the date of death by the legal representative or legatee of the Participant, until the earlier of the date that is 90 days (or such longer period as the Board shall specify at any time) after the date of death or the date of expiration of the stated term of the Options, Warrants or SARs, and (ii) the legal representative or legatee of the Participant shall have the right to acquire any shares of Common Stock underlying any Restricted Awards then owned by the Participant, to the extent the restrictions and conditions on such Restricted Awards have been terminated or satisfied at the date of death, until the earlier of the date that is 90 days (or such longer period as the Board shall specify at any time) after the date of death or the date of expiration of the stated term of the Restricted Award.
(b) Termination by Reason of Disability or Retirement.
(1) If a Participant’s employment by, or other relationship with, the Company terminates by reason of disability as set forth in Section 22(e)(3) of the Code (“Disability”): (i) any Options, Warrants or SARs then owned by such Participant may thereafter be exercised, to the extent they were exercisable at the time of such termination of employment, until the earlier of the date that is 90 days (or such longer period as the Board shall specify at any time) after the date of such termination of employment or the date of expiration of the stated term of the Options, Warrants or SARs, and (ii) the legal representative or guardian of the Participant shall have the right to acquire any shares of Common Stock underlying any Restricted Awards then owned by the Participant, to the extent the restrictions and conditions on such Restricted Awards have been terminated or satisfied at the date of such termination of employment, until the earlier of the date that is 90 days (or such longer period as the Board shall specify at any time) after the date of such termination of employment or the date of expiration of the stated term of the Restricted Award.
(2) If a Participant retires in good standing from active employment or service with the Company in accordance with the retirement policies of the Company then in effect (“Retirement”), (i) any Options, Warrants and SARs then held by the Participant may thereafter be exercised, to the extent they were exercisable at the time of such termination, until the earlier of the date that is 90 days (or such longer period as the Board shall specify at any time) after the date of such Retirement or the date of expiration of the stated term of the Options, Warrants or SARs, and (ii) the Participant shall have the right to acquire any shares of Common Stock underlying any Restricted Awards then owned by the Participant, to the extent the restrictions and conditions on such Restricted Awards have been terminated or satisfied at the date of such Retirement, until the earlier of the date that is 90 days (or such longer period as the Board shall specify at any time) after the date of such Retirement or the date of expiration of the stated term of the Restricted Award.
(3) The Board shall have sole authority and discretion to determine whether a Participant’s employment or services has been terminated by reason of Disability or Retirement.
(c) Termination for Cause. If a Participant’s employment by, or other relationship with, the Company terminates for “Cause,” any Options, Warrants, SARs and Restricted Awards held by such Participant shall immediately terminate and be of no further force and effect; provided, however, that the Board may, in its sole discretion, provide that any such Options, Warrants, SARs and Restricted Awards may be exercised until the earlier of the date that is 90 days after the date of such termination of employment or the date of expiration of the stated term of the Options, Warrants, SARs or Restricted Awards.
“Cause” shall have the meaning ascribed to such term in any employment, consulting, advisory or other agreement between the applicable Participant and the Company; provided, however, that if no such agreement exists or, if such agreement exists but no such term is provided or defined therein, “Cause” shall mean a determination by the Company (including the Board) that the Participant’s employment or other relationship with the Company should be terminated as a result of: (i) a material breach by the Participant of any agreement to which the Participant and the Company are parties, (ii) any act or omission to act, other than death, Disability or Retirement, by the Participant that may have a material and adverse effect on the business of the Company or on the Participant’s ability to perform services for the Company, including, without limitation, the proven or admitted commission of a felony, or (iii) any material misconduct or material neglect of duties by the Participant in connection with the business or affairs of the Company.
(d) Other Termination. Unless otherwise determined by the Board, if a Participant’s employment by, or other relationship with, the Company terminates for any reason other than death, Disability, Retirement or for Cause: (i) any Options, Warrants and SARs held by such Participant may thereafter be exercised, to the extent they are exercisable on the date of termination of employment, until the earlier of the date that is 90 days (or such longer period as the Board shall specify at any time) after the date of such termination of employment or the date of expiration of the stated term of the Options, Warrants and SARs, and (ii) the Participant shall have the right to acquire any shares of Common Stock underlying any Restricted Awards then owned by the Participant, to the extent the restrictions and conditions on such Restricted Awards have been terminated or satisfied at the date of such termination of employment, until the earlier of the date that is 90 days (or such longer period as the Board shall specify at any time) after the date of such termination of employment or the date of expiration of the stated term of the Restricted Award.
(e) Transfer and Leave of Absence. For purposes of this Plan, the following events shall not be deemed a termination of employment: (i) a transfer of employment between any of the Company, a parent, a subsidiary or any other affiliate of the Company, and (ii) an approved leave of absence for military service or sickness, or for any other purpose approved by the Board, if the employee’s right to re-employment is guaranteed by a statute, by contract or under the policy pursuant to which the leave of absence was granted, or if the Board otherwise so provides in writing.
15. Withholding.
(a) Payment by Participant. Each Participant shall pay to the Company, or make arrangements satisfactory to the Board regarding payment of, any federal, state, local and/or payroll taxes of any kind required by law to be withheld with respect to such income. The Company may, to the extent permitted by law, deduct any such taxes from any payment of any kind otherwise due to a Participant whether or not pursuant to the Plan.
(b) Payment in Shares. A Participant may elect, with the consent of the Board, to have such tax withholding obligation satisfied, in whole or in part, by: (i) authorizing the Company to withhold from shares of Common Stock to be issued pursuant to an Award a number of shares of Common Stock having an aggregate Fair Market Value that would satisfy the minimum withholding amount due with respect to such Award, or (ii) delivering to the Company a number of Mature Shares with an aggregate Fair Market Value that would satisfy the minimum withholding amount due. The Company may require that any fractional share amount be settled in cash. For the purposes of this Section 15(b), Fair Market Value shall be determined as of the date on which the amount of tax to be withheld is determined.
(c) Notice of Disqualifying Disposition. If any Participant shall make any disposition of shares of Common Stock delivered pursuant to the exercise of an Incentive Stock Option under the circumstances described in Section 421(b) of the Code (relating to certain disqualifying dispositions), such Participant shall notify the Company of such disposition within 10 days thereof.
16. Status of Participant. With respect to the portion of any Award that has not been exercised and any payments in cash, shares of Common Stock or other consideration not received by a Participant, a Participant shall have no rights greater than those of a general unsecured creditor of the Company unless the Board shall otherwise expressly determine in connection with an Award. The Board may, in its sole discretion, authorize the creation of trusts or other arrangements to meet the Company’s obligations to deliver shares of Common Stock or make payments with respect to Awards hereunder, provided that the existence of such trusts or other arrangements is consistent with the provision of the preceding sentence.
17. General Provisions Applicable to Awards.
(a) Transferability of Awards. Except as the Board may otherwise determine or provide in an Award or as otherwise provided in the Plan, no Award or any right or obligation thereunder may be sold, exchanged, transferred, assigned, pledged, hypothecated or otherwise encumbered or disposed of, whether voluntarily or involuntarily, by the person to whom they are granted, except by will or the laws of descent and distribution. Awards shall be exercisable only by the Participant or the Participant’s legal representative. References to a Participant, to the extent relevant in the context, shall include references to authorized transferees. Notwithstanding the immediately proceeding three sentences, the Board may permit a Participant to transfer any Award to any person or entity that the Board so determines under such terms and conditions that it deems appropriate in its sole discretion. Any assignment in violation of the provisions of this Section 17(a) shall be void. All of the terms and conditions of this Plan and any Awards shall be binding upon any such permitted successors and assigns of the Participant.
(b) Agreements Evidencing Awards. Each Award granted under the Plan shall be evidenced by a written document that shall contain such provisions and conditions as the Board deems appropriate. By accepting an Award, a Participant thereby agrees that the Award shall be subject to all of the terms and provisions of the Plan and the applicable Award.
(c) Non-Uniform Determinations. Except as otherwise provided by the Plan, each Award may be made alone or in addition to or in relation to any other Award. The terms of each Award need not be identical, and the Board need not treat Participants uniformly, regardless of whether such persons are similarly situated. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Board shall be entitled, among other things, to make non-uniform and selective determinations when issuing Awards, and to grant non-uniform and selective Awards as to: (i) the persons to receive Awards, (ii) the terms and provisions of Awards, and (iii) whether a Participant’s employment has been terminated for purposes of the Plan.
(d) Acceleration. The Board may at any time provide that any Award shall become immediately exercisable in full or in part, free of some or all restrictions or conditions, or otherwise realizable in full or in part, as the case may be.
(e) Delivery of Shares. The Company will not be obligated to deliver any shares of Common Stock pursuant to the Plan or to remove restrictions from shares previously delivered under the Plan until: (i) all conditions of the Award have been met or removed to the satisfaction of the Company, (ii) in the opinion of the Company’s counsel, all other legal matters in connection with the issuance and delivery of such shares have been satisfied, including any applicable securities laws and any applicable stock exchange or stock market rules and regulations, and (iii) the Participant has executed and delivered to the Company such representations or agreements as the Company may consider appropriate to satisfy the requirements of any applicable laws, rules or regulations.
(f) Stock Certificates. Any stock certificates issued in respect of a Restricted Stock Award shall be registered in the name of the Participant and, unless otherwise determined by the Board, deposited by the Participant, together with a stock power endorsed in blank, with the Company or the Company’s designee. At the expiration of the applicable restriction periods, the Company or such designee shall deliver the certificates no longer subject to such restrictions to the Participant or if the Participant has died, to the Participant’s legal representative or legatee. Delivery of stock certificates to Participants under this Plan shall be deemed effected for all purposes when the Company or a stock transfer agent of the Company shall have delivered such certificates in the United States mail, addressed to the Participant, at the Participant’s last known address on file with the Company.
18. Miscellaneous
(a) No Right To Employment or Other Status. No person shall have any claim or right to be granted an Award. The adoption of the Plan and grant of an Award shall not be construed as giving a Participant the right to continued employment or any other relationship with the Company. The Company expressly reserves the right at any time to dismiss or otherwise terminate its relationship with a Participant free from any liability or claim under the Plan or any Award.
(b) Nature of Payments. Any and all grants of Awards and deliveries of shares of Common Stock, cash, securities or other property under the Plan shall be in consideration of services performed or to be performed for the Company by the Participant. Awards under the Plan may, in the discretion of the Board, be made in substitution in whole or in part for cash or other compensation otherwise payable to a Participant. All such grants and deliveries shall constitute a special discretionary incentive payment to the Participant and shall not be required to be taken into account in computing the amount of salary or compensation of the Participant for the purpose of determining any contributions to or any benefits under any pension, retirement, profit-sharing, bonus, life insurance, severance or other benefit plan of the Company or under any agreement with the Participant, unless the Company specifically provides otherwise.
(c) No Rights As Stockholder. Subject to the provisions of the applicable Award, no Participant or designated beneficiary shall have any rights as a stockholder with respect to any shares of Common Stock to be distributed with respect to an Award until delivery of the shares to the Participant or the Participant’s legal representative or legatee. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event the Company effects a split of the Common Stock by means of a stock dividend and the exercise price of, and the number of shares subject to, an Option, Warrant or SAR are adjusted as of the date of the distribution of the dividend (rather than as of the record date for such dividend), a Participant who exercises such Option, Warrant or SAR between the record date and the distribution date for such stock dividend shall be entitled to receive, on the distribution date, the stock dividend with respect to the shares of Common Stock acquired upon such Option, Warrant or SAR exercise, notwithstanding the fact that such shares were not outstanding as of the close of business on the record date for such stock dividend.
(d) Effective Date of Plan. The Plan shall become effective on the date on which it is adopted by the Board; provided, however, that: (i) no Award granted to a Participant shall become effective until any shareholder approval of the Company to issue the underlying securities necessary under applicable legal, regulatory or listing requirements is obtained, and (ii) no Award granted to a Participant that is intended to comply with Section 162(m) shall become exercisable, vested or realizable, as applicable to such Award, unless and until the Plan has been approved by the Company’s stockholders to the extent stockholder approval is required by Section 162(m) in the manner required under Section 162(m).
(e) Entire Agreement. This Plan and any Award contain the entire agreement between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede all prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof. No party shall be liable or bound to any other party in any manner by any warranties, representations, guarantees or covenants except as specifically set forth in the Plan and any Award. Nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to confer upon any party other than the parties hereto or their respective successors and assigns any rights, remedies, obligations or liabilities under or by reason of this Agreement, except as expressly provided in this Agreement.
(f) Amendment of Plan or Award. The Board may not amend or terminate a previously issued and outstanding award without the written consent of the recipient thereof. Unless otherwise determined by the Board, shareholder approval of any suspension, discontinuance, revision or amendment shall be obtained only to the extent necessary to comply with any applicable law, rule or regulation. To the extent required by Section 162(m), no Award granted to a Participant that is intended to comply with Section 162(m) after the date of such amendment shall become exercisable, realizable or vested, as applicable to such Award, unless and until such amendment shall have been approved by the Company’s stockholders if required by Section 162(m) (including the vote required under Section 162(m)). No Award shall be made that is conditioned upon stockholder approval of any amendment to the Plan.
(g) Severability. If any provision of the Plan or any Award or the application thereof to any person or circumstance is held to be invalid or unenforceable to any extent, the remainder of the Plan or any Award shall remain in full force and effect and shall be reformed to render the Agreement valid and enforceable while reflecting to the greatest extent permissible the intent of the parties.
(h) Successors and Assigns. The terms and conditions of the Plan and any Award shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Company and its successors and assigns.
(i) Termination of Plan. The Plan shall terminate upon the tenth anniversary of its effective date. The Board may terminate the Plan at any time prior to such date. No Award may be granted under the Plan after the Plan has been terminated. No Award granted while this Plan is in effect shall be altered or impaired by termination of the Plan, except upon the written consent of the holder of such Award. The power of the Board to construe and interpret this Plan and the Awards granted prior to the termination of the Plan shall continue after such termination.
(j) Other Compensatory Arrangements. Neither the adoption of the Plan by the Board nor the submission of the Plan to the shareholders 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, and such arrangements may be either generally applicable or applicable only in specific cases.
(k) Consents and Legal Requirements. If the Board shall at any time determine that any Consent (as defined below) is necessary or desirable as a condition of, or in connection with, the granting of any Award, the delivery of shares of Common Stock, or the delivery of any cash, securities or other property under the Plan, or the taking of any other action thereunder (each such action being hereinafter referred to as a “Plan Action”), then such Plan Action shall not be taken, in whole or in part, unless and until such Consent shall have been effected or obtained to the full satisfaction of the Board. The Board may require each person acquiring shares of Common Stock pursuant to an Award to represent to and agree with the Company in writing that such person is acquiring the shares for investment purposes only and without a view to distribution thereof. The Board may also direct that any certificate evidencing shares delivered pursuant to the Plan shall bear a legend setting forth such restrictions on transferability as the Board may determine to be necessary or desirable, and may advise the transfer agent to place a stop order against any legended shares.
“Consent” as used herein with respect to any Plan Action includes: (i) any and all listings, registrations or qualifications in respect thereof upon any securities exchange or under any federal, state or local law, or law, rule or regulation of a jurisdiction outside the United States, (ii) any and all written agreements and representations by the Participant with respect to the disposition of shares, or with respect to any other matter, which the Committee may deem necessary or desirable to comply with the terms of any such listing, registration or qualification, or to obtain an exemption from the requirement that any such listing, registration or qualification be made, (iii) any and all other consents, clearances and approvals in respect of a plan action by any governmental or other regulatory body or any stock exchange or self-regulatory agency, and (iv) any and all consents or authorizations required to comply with, or required to be obtained under, applicable local law or otherwise required by the Board. Nothing herein shall require the Company to list, register or qualify the shares of Common Stock on any securities exchange.
(l) Section 83(b) Election. No election under Section 83(b) of the Code (relating to the inclusion of gross income in the year of transfer the amounts specified in such Code section) or under a similar provision of the law of a jurisdiction outside the United States may be made unless expressly permitted by the terms of the Award or by action of the Board in writing prior to the making of such election. If a Participant, in connection with the acquisition of shares of Common Stock under the Plan or otherwise, is expressly permitted under the terms of the Award or by such Board action to make any such election and the Participant makes the election, the Participant shall notify the Board of such election within 10 days of filing notice of the election with the Internal Revenue Service or other governmental authority, in addition to any filing or notification required pursuant to the regulations issued under Section 83(b) of the Code or other applicable provision.
(m) Absence of Third-Party Beneficiary Rights. Unless expressly provided in the Plan or any Award, no provision of the Plan or any Award is intended, nor will be interpreted, to provide or create any third-party beneficiary rights or any other rights of any kind in any client, customer, affiliate, officer, director, shareholder, employee, partner of any party hereto or any other person or entity, and, except as so provided, all provisions hereof and thereof will be solely between the parties to the Plan and any Award.
(n) Provisions for Foreign Participants. The Board may modify the terms and conditions of Awards granted to Participants who are foreign nationals or employed outside the United States, establish sub-plans under the Plan, or adopt such modifications or procedures as the Board may determine to be necessary or advisable, to recognize differences in laws, rules, regulations or customs of such foreign jurisdictions with respect to tax, securities, currency, employee benefit, accounting or other matters.
(o) Liability of the Company. The Company and any affiliate that is in existence or hereafter comes into existence shall not be liable to a Participant or other persons as to: (i) the non-issuance or sale of shares of Common Stock as to which the Company has been unable to obtain approval from any regulatory body having jurisdiction deemed by the Company’s counsel to be necessary to the lawful issuance and sale of any shares of Common Stock hereunder, and (ii) any tax consequence expected, but not realized, by any Participant or other person due to the receipt, exercise or settlement of any Option, Warrant, SAR or other Award granted hereunder.
(p) Governing Law. This Plan and any Award shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, without regard to the laws that might otherwise govern under applicable principles of conflicts of laws thereof.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors
Power3 Medical Products, Inc.
(A Development Stage Entity)
The Woodlands, Texas
We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Power3 Medical Products, Inc. (A Development Stage Entity) (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2009 and 2008 and the related statements of operations, stockholders’ deficit and cash flows for the years then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.
We conducted our audit in accordance with standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Power3 Medical Products, Inc. as of December 31, 2009 and 2008 and the results of its operations and cash flows for the period described above in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company has suffered recurring losses from operations and maintains a working capital deficit. These matters raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. These financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of asset carrying amounts or the amount and classification of liabilities that may result should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. See note 3 to the financial statements for further information regarding this uncertainty.

Notes to Financial Statements
December 31, 2009 and 2008
Note 1. Description of Business
Power3 Medical Products, Inc. (“we”, “us”, “our”, “Power3”, or the “Company”) was incorporated in the State of Florida on May 15, 1992 and merged into a New York Corporation in 1994, under the name Sheffield Acres, Inc. On September 12, 2003, Surgical Safety Products, Inc. amended its Certificate of Incorporation to change its name to Power3 Medical Products, Inc. The Company transitioned to being a development stage company on May 18, 2004, when it completed the acquisition of certain intellectual property assets from Advanced Bio/Chem, Inc. and began focusing on research and development relating to those assets. The Company currently focuses on the development of its intellectual properties by focusing on disease diagnosis, protein and biomarker identification and early detection indicators in the areas of cancers, neurodegenerative and neuromuscular diseases, as well as other scientific areas of interest associated with protein biomarkers.
The Company has developed a portfolio of products including BC-SeraPro™, a proteomic blood serum test for the early detection of breast cancer, and NuroPro®, a serum test for the detection of neurodegenerative diseases including Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s and ALS diseases. These products are designed to analyze proteins and their mutations to assess an individual’s risk for developing disease later in life or a patient’s likelihood of responding to a particular drug, assess a patient’s risk of disease progression and disease recurrence, and measure a patient’s exposure to drug therapy to ensure optimal dosing and reduced drug toxicity. Future products and services are expected to originate from the Company’s internal research and development programs, collaborative efforts and alliances with third parties, and acquisitions of complementary technologies and businesses. The Company intends to continue entering into collaboration and licensing agreements with other biotechnology companies, academic and research institutions, and other organizations that have the ability to market and sell the Company’s products in return for licensing fees, royalties and milestone payments.
Note 2. Significant Accounting Policies
This summary of significant accounting policies is provided to assist the reader in understanding the Company’s financial statements. The financial statements and notes thereto are representations of the Company’s management. The Company’s management is responsible for their integrity and objectivity. These accounting policies conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and have been consistently applied in the preparation of the financial statements.

Notes to Financial Statements
December 31, 2009 and 2008
Going Concern
The Company’s financial statements have been prepared using accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America applicable to a going concern which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has historically incurred significant losses, which raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of asset carrying amounts or the amount and classification of liabilities that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
Reclassifications
Certain amounts in the 2008 financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the 2009 presentation. These reclassifications did not result in any change to the previously reported total assets, net loss or stockholders’ deficit.
Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Revenue Recognition and Concentration
The Company’s revenue consists of licensing fees and sample fees that it receives under licensing agreements that the Company has with third parties. The Company recognizes the fees as revenue when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery or performance has occurred, the sales price is fixed and determinable, and collectibility is reasonably assured in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 605 (“ASC 605”).
During the year ended December 31, 2009, the Company generated revenue of $115,000. All of this revenue was generated through the Collaboration and Exclusive License Agreement between the Company and Transgenomic.
Financial Instruments
The company accounts for its financial instruments in accordance with ASC Topic 825, which requires the disclosure of fair value information about financial instruments when it is practicable to estimate that value. The carrying amounts of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents, accounts payable, accrued liabilities and other short-term liabilities in the consolidated balance sheet approximate their fair value due to the short-tem maturity of these instruments and obligations. The fair value of related party transactions is not determinable due to their related party nature.

Fair Value Measurements
In accordance with the authoritative guidance on fair value measurements and disclosure under GAAP, the Company determines fair value using a fair value hierarchy that distinguishes between market participant assumptions developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity, and the reporting entity’s own assumptions about market participant assumptions developed based on the best information available in the circumstances and expands disclosure about fair value measurements.
Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in our principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date, essentially the exit price.
The levels of fair value hierarchy are:
Level 1: Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities at the measurement date.
Level 2: Observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1, such as quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.
Level 3: Unobservable inputs for which there is little or no market data available. These inputs reflect management’s assumptions of what market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.
Level 1 investments are valued based on quoted market prices in active markets and include the Company’s cash equivalent investments. Level 2 investments, which include investments that are valued based on quoted prices in markets that are not active, broker or dealer quotations, or alternative pricing sources with reasonable levels of price transparency, include the Company’s certificates of deposit, corporate bonds and notes, municipal bonds and notes and U.S. government securities.
A financial instrument’s level within the fair value hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement. However, the determination of what constitutes “observable” requires significant judgment by the Company. The Company considers observable data to be market data which is readily available, regularly distributed or updated, reliable and verifiable, not proprietary, and provided by independent sources that are actively involved in the relevant market.

Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization are calculated using the straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the related assets. The cost of major improvements to the Company’s property and equipment are capitalized. The cost of maintenance and repairs that do not improve or extend the life of the applicable assets are expensed as incurred. When assets are retired or otherwise disposed of, the cost and accumulated depreciation and amortization are removed from the accounts and any resulting gain or loss is reported in the period realized.
The Company reviews property and equipment for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of assets may not be recoverable. Recoverability is measured by comparison of the carrying amount of the assets to the future undiscounted net cash flows that the assets are expected to generate. If the assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of these assets exceeds the fair value of the assets.
Debt Discounts and Deferred Finance Costs
Debt discounts and deferred finance costs are amortized through periodic charges to interest expense over the maximum term of the related financial instrument using the effective interest method. Total amortization of debt discounts and deferred financing costs amounted to $258,384 and $1,198,688 during the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively.
Long-Lived Assets
The Company reviews long-lived assets for impairment at least annually or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of assets may not be recoverable in accordance with ASC Topic 360. Recoverability is measured by comparison of the carrying amount of the assets to the future undiscounted net cash flows that the assets are expected to generate. If the assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of these assets exceeds the fair value of the assets.

Derivative Financial Instruments
ASC Topic 815 (“ASC 815”) requires that all derivative financial instruments be recorded on the balance sheet at fair value. Fair values for exchange traded securities and derivatives are based on quoted market prices. Where market prices are not readily available, fair values are determined using market based pricing models incorporating readily observable market data and requiring judgment and estimates.
The Company has issued several convertible promissory notes and stock warrants and has evaluated the terms and conditions of the conversion features contained in the notes and warrants to determine whether they represent embedded or freestanding derivative instruments under the provisions of ASC Topic 815 (“ASC 815”). The Company determined that the conversion features contained in the notes and warrants represent freestanding derivative instruments that meet the requirements for liability classification under ASC 815. As a result, the fair value of the derivative financial instruments in the notes and warrants is reflected in the Company’s balance sheet as a liability. The fair value of the derivative financial instruments of the convertible promissory notes and warrants was measured at the inception date of the notes and warrants and each subsequent balance sheet date. Any changes in the fair value of the derivative financial instruments are recorded as non-operating, non-cash income or expense at each balance sheet date.
Power3 valued the conversion features in its convertible notes using a binomial lattice valuation model. The lattice model values the embedded derivatives based on a probability-weighted discounted cash flow model. This model is based on future projections of the five primary alternatives possible for settlement of the features included within the embedded derivatives, which are: (i) payments are made in cash, (ii) payments are made in stock, (iii) the holder exercises its right to convert the debentures, (iv) Power3 exercises its right to convert the debentures, and (v) Power3 defaults on the debentures. Power3 uses the model to analyze the underlying economic factors that influence which of these events will occur, when they are likely to occur, and the price of its common stock and specific terms of the debentures, such as interest rate and conversion price, that will be in effect when they occur. Based on the analysis of these factors, Power3 uses the model to develop a set of potential scenarios. Probabilities of each scenario occurring during the remaining term of the debentures are determined based on management’s projections. These probabilities are used to create a cash flow projection over the term of the debentures and determine the probability that the projected cash flow will be achieved. A discounted weighted average cash flow for each scenario is then calculated and compared to the discounted cash flow of the debentures without the compound embedded derivative in order to determine a value for the compound embedded derivative.

The Company uses the Black-Scholes pricing model to determine the fair value of its warrants. This model takes into consideration such factors as the estimated term of the warrants, the volatility of the price of the Company’s common stock, interest rates, and the probability that the warrants will be exercised to determine the fair value of the warrants. The selection of these criteria requires management’s judgment and may impact the Company’s net income or loss.
Net Loss Per Share
Basic loss per share is based on the weighted average number of shares of the Company’s common stock outstanding during the applicable year, and is calculated by dividing the reported net loss for the applicable year by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the applicable year. The Company calculates diluted loss per share by dividing the reported net loss for the applicable year by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the applicable year as adjusted to give effect to the exercise of all potentially dilutive options and warrants outstanding at the end of the year. A total of 117,037,446 and 119,646,610 shares of common stock underlying options and warrants that were outstanding on December 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively, have been excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share because they are anti-dilutive. As a result, basic loss per share was equal to diluted loss per share for each year.
Stock-Based Compensation
The Company accounts for employee stock-based compensation in accordance with the fair value recognition provisions of ASC Topic 718 (“ASC 718”) using the modified prospective transition method. Under this method, compensation expense includes: (a) compensation expense for all stock-based payments granted, but not yet vested, as of January 1, 2006 based on the grant-date fair value, and (b) compensation expense for all stock-based payments granted subsequent to January 1, 2006, based on the grant-date fair value. Such amounts have been reduced by the Company’s estimate of forfeitures of all unvested awards.
The Company accounts for non-employee stock-based compensation in accordance with ASC 718 and ASC Topic 505 (“ASC 505”). ASC 718 and ASC 505 require that the Company recognize compensation expense based on the estimated fair value of stock-based compensation granted to non-employees over the vesting period, which is generally the period during which services are rendered by the non-employees.
The Company uses the Black-Scholes pricing model to determine the fair value of the stock-based compensation that it grants to employees and non-employees. The Company is required to make certain assumptions in connection with this determination, the most important of which involves the calculation of volatility with respect to the price of its common stock. The computation of volatility is intended to produce a volatility value that is representative of the Company’s expectations about the future volatility of the price of its common stock over an expected term.

The Company used its share price history to determine volatility and cannot predict how the price of its shares of common stock will react on the open market in the future since its common stock has only been trading on the OTC Bulletin Board since March 30, 2006. As a result, the volatility value that the Company calculated may differ from the future volatility of the price of its shares of common stock.
Income Taxes
The Company uses the liability method of accounting for income taxes under which deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized as part of the provision for income taxes in the period that includes the enactment date. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized in the future.
Net deferred tax assets consisted of the following components at December 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively:
| | December 31, | |
| | 2009 | | | 2008 | |
Deferred tax assets: | | | | | | |

The Company had net operating loss carry-forwards of approximately $21,210,509 and $19,839,201 at December 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively, that may be offset against future taxable income from the years 2019 through 2029. No tax benefit has been reported in the December 31, 2009 financial statements since the potential tax benefit is offset by a valuation allowance of the same amount. The Company had no uncertain tax positions at December 31, 2009 or 2008.

Utilization of net operating loss carryforwards may be subject to a substantial annual limitation due to ownership change limitations provided by the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as well as similar state and foreign provisions. These ownership changes may limit the amount of net operating loss carryforwards that can be utilized annually to offset future taxable income and tax, respectively. Subsequent ownership changes could further affect the limitation in future years. These annual limitation provisions may result in the expiration of certain net operating losses and credits before utilization.
Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of 90 days or less on the date of purchase to be cash equivalents. There were no cash equivalents as of December 31, 2009 or 2008.
Recently Accounting Pronouncements
In May 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued guidance now codified as ASC Topic 855 (“ASC 855”) which establishes general standards of accounting for, and disclosures of, events that occur after the balance sheet date but before financial statements are issued or are available to be issued. ASC 855 requires the disclosure of the date through which an entity has evaluated subsequent events and the basis for selecting that date (i.e., whether that date represents the date the financial statements were issued or were available to be issued). These new provisions are effective for interim or fiscal periods ending after June 15, 2009. The adoption of these provisions did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial condition and results of operations.
In June 2009, the FASB issued guidance now codified as ASC Topic 105 (“ASC 105”) as the single source of authoritative nongovernmental U.S. GAAP. ASC 105 does not change current U.S. GAAP, but is intended to simplify user access to all authoritative U.S. GAAP by providing all authoritative literature related to a particular topic in one place. All existing accounting standard documents have been superseded and all other accounting literature not included in the FASB ASC is considered non-authoritative. These new provisions are effective for interim and annual periods ending after September 15, 2009 and, accordingly, are effective for the Company for the current fiscal reporting period. The adoption of these provisions did not have an impact on the Company’s financial condition and results of operations.

Note 8. Stock Options and Warrants
The Company did not issue any stock options during the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, and no stock options were outstanding at December 31, 2009 and 2008. Warrants exercisable into a total of 117,037,446 and 119,646,610 shares of the Company’s common stock were outstanding on December 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively. The weighted average exercise price of the warrants outstanding on December 31, 2009 and 2008 was $0.05, respectively. The Company estimates the fair value of its warrants on the date of grant by using the Black-Scholes pricing model in accordance with the provisions of ASC 718. Under the Black-Scholes pricing model, the Company used the following weighted-average assumptions to determine the fair value of the warrants issued: a dividend yield of zero percent, an expected volatility of 241%, a risk-free interest rate of 1.14% and a remaining contractual life of 3.5 years.
During the year ended December 31, 2009, we issued a total of 11,789,509 shares of common stock to warrant holders upon the exercise of outstanding warrants. Of this number, 11,656,917 shares were issued for total cash proceeds of $278,832. The remaining 132,592 shares of common stock were issued to warrant holders in accordance with cashless exercise provisions contained in their warrants. The exercise prices of the warrants exercised for cash ranged between $0.01 and $0.053 per share.
We revised the exercise price of several outstanding warrants during the years ended December 31, 2008 and 2009. We accounted for the revisions to the exercise price in accordance with ASC 718. Pursuant to the provisions of ASC 718, we revalued the warrants by comparing the terms of the original warrants with the terms of the revised warrants and recorded the difference in value between the two warrants as a deemed dividend in accordance with ASC Topic 470. We used the Black-Scholes pricing model to calculate the amount of the dividend to be recorded. Variables that were used in the calculation of the amount of the dividend were the price of our common stock on the measurement date, the exercise price of the options, the term of the options, the discount rate and the computed volatility.
In March 2009, we revised the terms of an outstanding warrant to acquire 300,000 shares of common stock held by the warrant holder. The exercise price of the warrant was reduced from $0.98 per share to $0.01 per share upon the condition that the holder immediately exercise the warrant at the reduced exercise price. We received $3,000 upon the exercise of the warrant and recorded the reduction of the exercise price of the warrant as a dividend in the amount of $3,895.

Note 1. Description of Business
Power3 Medical Products, Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated in the State of Florida as “Sheffield Acres, Inc.” on May 15, 1992, and merged into a New York corporation named “Surgical Safety Products, Inc.” in 1994. On September 12, 2003, Surgical Safety Products, Inc. amended its Certificate of Incorporation to change its name to “Power3 Medical Products, Inc.” The Company became a development stage company on May 18, 2004, when it completed the acquisition of certain intellectual property assets from Advanced Bio/Chem, Inc. and began focusing on research and development relating to those assets. The Company currently focuses on the development of its intellectual properties by focusing on disease diagnosis, protein and biomarker identification and early detection indicators in the areas of cancers, neurodegenerative and neuromuscular diseases, as well as other scientific areas of interest associated with protein biomarkers.
The Company has developed a portfolio of products including BC-SeraPro™, a proteomic blood serum test for the early detection of breast cancer, and NuroPro®, a serum test for the detection of neurodegenerative diseases including Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s and ALS diseases. These products are designed to analyze proteins and their mutations to assess an individual’s risk for developing disease later in life or a patient’s likelihood of responding to a particular drug, assess a patient’s risk of disease progression and disease recurrence, and measure a patient’s exposure to drug therapy to ensure optimal dosing and reduced drug toxicity. Future products and services are expected to originate from the Company’s internal research and development programs, collaborative efforts and alliances with third parties, and acquisitions of complementary technologies and businesses. The Company intends to continue entering into collaboration and licensing agreements with biotechnology companies, academic and research institutions, and other organizations that have the ability to market and sell the Company’s products in return for licensing fees, royalties and milestone payments.
Note 2. Basis of Presentation and Going Concern

Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements.

Note 2. Basis of Presentation and Going Concern (Continued)
The unaudited financial statements included in this document have been prepared on the same basis as the annual financial statements and in management’s opinion, reflect all adjustments, including normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods presented. The unaudited financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and the notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2009 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K. The results of operations for the three- and nine- month periods ended September 30, 2010 are not necessarily indicative of the results that the Company will have for any subsequent quarter or full fiscal year.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Certain amounts in the financial statements for 2009 have been reclassified to conform to the 2010 presentation. These reclassifications did not result in any change to the previously reported total assets, net loss or stockholders’ deficit.
As of September 30, 2010, the Company’s significant accounting policies and estimates, and applicable recent accounting policies, which are detailed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009, have not changed materially.
Going Concern
The Company’s financial statements have been prepared using accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America applicable to a going concern which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has historically incurred significant losses, which raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of asset carrying amounts or the amount and classification of liabilities that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Note 3. Net Income (Loss) Per Share
Basic income (loss) per share is based on the weighted average number of shares of the Company’s common stock outstanding during the applicable period, and is calculated by dividing the reported net income (loss) for the applicable period by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the applicable period. The Company calculates diluted income (loss) per share by dividing the reported net income (loss) for the applicable period by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the applicable period as adjusted to give effect to the exercise of all potentially dilutive warrants outstanding at the end of the period.
A total of 70,947,707 and 37,323,899 shares of common stock underlying warrants that were outstanding on September 30, 2010 have been excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share for the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2010 because the exercise price was greater than the average market price of the Company’s common stock during these periods. A total of 2,000,000 and 35,623,808 shares of common stock underlying warrants that were outstanding on September 30, 2010 have been included in the computation of diluted earnings per share for the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2010 because the exercise price was less than the average market price of the Company’s common stock during these periods. Application of the treasury stock method resulted in dilution of 2,000,000 and 35,623,808 shares of common stock for the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2010, but had no effect on net income per share.
All of the 122,827,446 shares of common stock underlying warrants that were outstanding on September 30, 2009, have been excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share for the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2009 because they are anti-dilutive. As a result, basic loss per share was equal to diluted loss per share for the three- and nine- month periods ended September 30, 2009.

Note 6. Derivative Liabilities
The Company’s derivative liabilities were $2,457,358 and $14,456,424 at September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively. The Company recognized gains of $1,418,710 and $11,999,065 for derivative liabilities for the three- and nine- month periods ended September 30, 2010, respectively, compared to losses of $9,211,930 and $9,368,581 for derivative liabilities for the three- and nine- month periods ended September 30, 2009, respectively. The derivative gains recognized during the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2010 were due primarily to a decrease of the Company’s stock price during 2010.
The components of derivative financial instruments on the Company’s balance sheet at September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009 are as follows:
| | September 30, 2010 | | | December 31, 2009 | |
| | | | | | |
Common stock warrants | | $ | 1,484,232 | | | $ | 10,267,167 | |
Embedded conversion features – convertible promissory notes and debentures | | | 973,126 | | | | 4,189,257 | |
Total | | $ | 2,457,358 | | | $ | 14,456,424 | |
During the three months ended June 30, 2010, the Company changed the method by which it valued the conversion features in its convertible notes by switching from the binomial lattice valuation model to the Black-Scholes pricing model. As a result, the conversion features in the Company’s convertible notes were valued under the binomial lattice valuation model at December 31, 2009, and were valued under the Black-Scholes pricing model at September 30, 2010. This change has been deemed by the Company to be a change in accounting estimate.
