Section 5: Corporate Governance and Management

Item 5:02. Departure of Directors or Principal Officers; Election of Directors: Appointment of Principal Officers

Item 5.07: Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders

We held our annual shareholder meeting on December 3, 2010 and all but one proposal was approved.  However, as required by the terms of the transaction for which the issuance of shares did not get approved, we shall include the same proposal in all of our future proxy statements until such issuance is approved.  We shall now submit all of the approved proposals and related issuances to the NYSE Amex for their approval; after which, we shall be able to issue all of the shares, that were approved, as described in the definitive proxy statement that we filed on November 12, 2010.
 
Our only Class III director whose term expired as of the shareholder meeting did not stand for re-election.  This was a personal choice not based on any disagreement with us on relating to our operations, policies or practices.
 
One of the approved proposals was for the 2010 Performance and Equity Incentive Plan.  A copy of the plan was included in the Definitive Proxy Statement that we filed with the SEC on November 12, 2010.  The 2010 Plan provides for the grant to employees, including executive officers, of restricted common stock, as well as cash or other stock-based awards and other benefits. The purpose of the 2010 Plan is to enable us to attract and retain qualified persons as employees, officers and directors and others, whose services are required by us, and to motivate such persons by providing them with equity participation in us.
 
Once we obtain NYSE Amex approval of the shares issuable under the 2010 Plan, the Compensation Committee and Board approved issuing 2,500,000 options to our CEO, Douglas MacLellan, and 2,000,000 options to our CFO, Akio Aruira and approximately 1,090,000 options among 13 of our employees, consultants and directors.
 

 
Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure.
 
On December 6, 2010, we issued a press release announcing the results of our shareholder meeting.  A copy of the press release containing such announcement is furnished herewith as Exhibit 99.1 and incorporated herein by reference.
