Other Events and Regulation FD Disclosure. ------------------------------------------ On December 7, 2000, Ralph Drewitt resigned as a director of AlphaTrade.com, a Nevada corporation (the "Company"), due solely to health reasons. On December 8, 2000, the Board of Directors of the Company voted to reduce the exercise price on the Company's 2000 Stock Incentive Plan. This reduction will bring the exercise price more in line with the present trading price of the Company's shares. The Company is concerned that current employees and consultants would not view our current pricing as incentive to stay with the Company. The Board of Directors felt that a reduction in strike price would ensure a long term commitment to the Company. The Plan initially granted 590,000 shares and 1,130,000 shares in option to the employees and consultants of the Company at an exercise price of $1.00 per share, vesting as to 20% per year over a 5 year period. The amendment to the plan will reduce the price of the 590,000 shares from $1.00 to $0.20 per share and will reduce the exercise price on the stock options as follows: 327,000 shares at an exercise price of $0.20 per share; and 803,000 shares at an exercise price of $0.50 per share. The Board of Directors also resolved to: allow optionees to offset presently or next due compensation as payment for the exercise price for all or any portion of such options; and authorize the President, in her sole discretion, to lend the optionees sufficient funds to exercise their options, at an interest rate of 6% per annum, to be repaid concurrent with the next compensation due to such optionee. See the Exhibit Index, Item 7 of this Report. Item 6. Resignations of Directors and Executive Officers. ------------------------------------------------- None; not applicable.
