COMPENSATION PLANS
STOCK OPTIONS
In May 2000, we adopted the 2000 Stock Option Plan. The purpose of the plan is
to enable us to attract, retain and motivate key employees, directors and
consultants by providing them with stock options. Options granted under the
plan may be either incentive stock options, as defined in Section 422A of the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986, or non-qualified stock options. We have reserved
2,000,000 shares of common stock for issuance under the plan. As of the date of
April 23, 2006 no options have been granted pursuant to the plan.
The Board of Directors administers the plan. The Board has the power to
determine the terms of any options granted under the plan, including the
exercise price, the number of shares subject to the option, and the conditions
of exercise. Options granted under the plan are generally not transferable, and
each option is generally exercisable during the lifetime of the holder only by
the holder. The exercise price of all incentive stock options granted under the
plan must be at least equal to the fair market value of the shares common stock
on the date of the grant. With respect to any participant who owns stock
possessing more than 10% of the voting power of all classes of our stock, the
exercise price of any incentive stock option granted must be equal to at least
110% of the fair market value on the grant date. The Board of Directors approves
the terms of each option. These terms are reflected in a written stock option
agreement.
CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS
The company has entered into a five-year lease of the premises from which it
manufactures Arcoplate. This lease is with an entity owned by the family of Mr
Kostecki. The lease is at normal commercial conditions and fiscal rates.
COMPLIANCE WITH SECTION 16(A) OF THE EXCHANGE ACT
Under the securities laws of the United States, the Company's directors,
executive officers, and any persons holding more than ten percent of the
Company's common stock are required to report their initial ownership of the
Company's common stock and any subsequent changes in their ownership to the
Securities and Exchange Commission. Specific due dates have been established by
the Commission, and the Company is required to disclose in this Proxy Statement
any failure to file by those dates. Based upon (1) the copies of the section
16(a) reports that the Company received from such persons for their 2005 fiscal
year transactions and (2) the written representations received from one or more
of such persons that no annual Form 5 reports were required to be filed for them
for the 2005 fiscal year, the Company believes that there has been compliance
with all Section 16(a) filing requirements applicable to such officers,
directors and ten percent beneficial owners for such fiscal year.
