With regard to the accrued salary, the Company accrues a salary of $150,000 per year to Mr. Reed, and he had not been paid any salary for over 4 years at the time of the stock issuance. Attached hereto as Exhibit A is a list of the expenses that were satisfied with the stock grant. Most of the expenses were for miscellaneous expenses paid by Mr. Reed on behalf of the Company. In three situations, the item represents amounts that Mr. Reed deposited into the Company’s bank account to enable it to pay specific expenses that were due at the time: $6,800 on 1/31/11; $2,000 on 5/31/12; and $1,000 on 7/24/12. None of the amounts recorded as expenses were for services rendered by Mr. Reed. The Company allocated to bonus whatever was not allocated to accrued salary or expenses.
Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions.
| Very truly yours, | |
