Item 3.02 Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities

The disclosure in item 5.02 is responsive to this Item and is hereby incorporated by reference.

Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.

Effective January 20, 2010, the board of directors of Lexaria Corp. (the “Company”) adopted the 2010 Equity Compensation Plan (the “2010 Plan”). The purpose of the 2010 Plan is to enhance the long-term stockholder value of the Company by offering opportunities to directors, officers, employees and eligible consultants of the Company to acquire and maintain stock ownership in our company in order to give these persons the opportunity to participate in the Company's growth and success, and to encourage them to remain in the service of our company. A total of 1,800,000 shares of common stock are available for issuance under the 2010 Plan.

The 2010 Plan provides for the grant of incentive stock options, restricted stock awards, stock appreciation awards and non-qualified stock options. Incentive stock options granted under the 2010 Stock Option Plan are those intended to qualify as "incentive stock options" as defined under Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code. However, in order to qualify as "incentive stock options" under Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code, the 2010 Plan must be approved by the stockholders of our company within 12 months of its adoption. The 2010 Plan has not been approved by our stockholders.

In addition, on January 20, 2010, the Company granted 975,000 stock options to its directors and executive officers of the Company.  The exercise price of each of the stock options granted is $0.20.  All of the options vest immediately and expire on January 20, 2015.  

The following are the recipients and the options granted:
