PROXY STATEMENT


Dated November 21, 2011 (unless otherwise noted)


GENERAL INFORMATION


This Proxy Statement is being sent to you in connection with the solicitation of proxies for the 2011 annual and special meeting of shareholders (the “Meeting”) by the management of USA Video Interactive Corp. (“USA Video”) to be held at the offices of USA Video, #507, 837 West Hastings Street, Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, V6C 3N6, at 8:00 a.m., Pacific Time, on December 30, 2011, and at any adjournments thereof.  This proxy statement and the accompanying Notice of 2011 Annual and Special Meeting of Shareholders and Form of Proxy were first mailed to stockholders on or about December 5, 2011.  Shareholders are encouraged to review the information provided in this Proxy Statement in conjunction with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009 and our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010.


Who may vote


Only our shareholders as recorded in our stock register at the close of business on November 21, 2011 (the “Record Date”) may vote at the Meeting.  At the close of business on the Record Date, we had 191,596,371 common shares outstanding and entitled to vote, held by approximately 1,210 stockholders of record.  Each common share is entitled to one vote on each matter properly brought before the Meeting.  


How to vote


You may vote in person at the meeting or by proxy.  We recommend that you vote by proxy even if you plan to attend the Meeting.  You can always change your vote at the Meeting.


Voting Electronically via the Internet


If your shares are registered in the name of a bank or brokerage you may be eligible to vote your shares electronically over the Internet or by telephone. A large number of banks and brokerage firms are participating in the Broadridge Financial Solutions, Inc. ("Broadridge") online program, which provides eligible shareholders who receive a paper copy of the Proxy Statement with the opportunity to vote via the Internet or by telephone. If your bank or brokerage firm is participating in Broadridge’s program, your voting form from the bank or brokerage firm will provide instructions. If your voting form does not reference Internet or telephone information, please complete and return the paper proxy card in the enclosed envelope.


How Proxies work


Giving us your proxy means you authorize us to vote your shares at the Meeting in the manner you direct.  You may vote for or not vote for the nominees for director named in this Proxy Statement.  You may also vote for or abstain from voting on the proposal to ratify and approve the appointment of Killman, Murrell & Company P.C., as our independent auditors and authorizing the directors to fix their remuneration, or you may vote for or vote against the 2011 Stock Option Plan, the proposal to consolidate our issued common stock and subsequent in increase in authorized share capital and the proposed change of name.  


If you sign and return the enclosed proxy but do not specify how to vote, we will vote your shares in favor of the nominees for director named in this Proxy Statement and in favor of the other proposals described in this Proxy Statement.  In the discretion of the proxy holders, the proxies will also be voted for or against such other matters as may properly come before the Meeting.  At the date this Proxy Statement went to press we did not know of any other matters to be raised at the Meeting.




2



The persons named in the enclosed proxy are our directors and officers and you may strike out the names of the persons whom you do not wish to act on your behalf.  A shareholder has the right to appoint any person to attend and act for him or her at the Meeting.  A Shareholder desiring to appoint a person to represent him at the Meeting may do so either by inserting such person’s name in the blank space provided and striking out the printed names in the Form of Proxy or by completing another proxy.  In either case, the proxy must be delivered to the offices of our registrar and transfer agent, Computershare Trust Company Inc., 350 Indiana Street, Suite 800, Golden, Colorado, 80401, Fax: (303) 262-0631 at least 48 hours prior to the scheduled commencement of the Meeting.


You may receive more than one proxy depending on how you hold your shares.  Shares registered in your name are covered by one proxy.  If you hold shares through someone else, such as a bank or broker (that is, in street name) please refer to your proxy card or the information forwarded by your bank, broker or other holder of record for voting instructions.  If you want to vote in person at the Meeting, and you hold your shares in street name, you must obtain a proxy from your bank or broker and bring the proxy to the Meeting.


This Proxy Statement and the accompanying Form of Proxy are first being mailed to shareholders on or about December 5, 2011.


These securityholder materials are being sent to both registered and non-registered owners of the securities.  If you are a non-registered owner, and we or our agent have sent these materials directly to you, your name and address and information about your holdings of securities, have been obtained in accordance with applicable securities regulatory requirements from the intermediary holding on your behalf.


By choosing to send these materials to you directly, we (and not the intermediary holding on your behalf) have assumed responsibility for (i) delivering these materials to you, and (ii) executing your proper voting instructions.  Please return your voting instructions as specified in the request for voting instructions.


Revoking a Proxy


You may revoke your proxy before it is voted by submitting a new proxy with a later date, by voting in person at the Meeting, or by notifying our Corporate Secretary in writing at #507, 837 West Hastings Street, Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, V6C 3N6.


In addition to revocation in any other manner permitted by law, a shareholder may revoke a proxy either by (a) signing a Form of Proxy bearing a later date and depositing it at the place and within the time aforesaid, or (b) signing and dating a written notice of revocation (in the same manner as the Form of Proxy is required to be executed as set out in the notes to the form of proxy) and either depositing it at the place and within the time aforesaid or with the Chairman of the Meeting on the day of the Meeting or on the day of any adjournment thereof, or (c) registering with the Scrutineer at the Meeting as a shareholder present in person, whereupon such proxy shall be deemed to have been revoked.


Only registered shareholders have the right to revoke a proxy. Non-Registered Holders who wish to change their vote must, at least seven days before the Meeting, arrange for their respective Intermediaries to revoke the proxy on their behalf.


Please note, however, that if your shares are held of record by a broker, bank or other nominee and you wish to vote at the Meeting, you must bring to the Meeting a letter from the broker, bank or other nominee confirming your beneficial ownership of the shares and that such broker, bank or other nominee is not voting your shares.


The Form of Proxy must be dated and be signed by the shareholder or by his attorney in writing, or, if the shareholder is a corporation, it must either be under its common seal or signed by a duly authorized officer.


Quorum


To conduct the business of the meeting, we must have a quorum.  This means at least 25% of the outstanding shares entitled to vote must be represented at the Meeting, either by proxy or in person.  






3



Votes needed


The five nominees for director receiving a plurality of the votes cast in person or by proxy at the Meeting shall be elected.  Approval to ratify and approve the appointment of Killman, Murrell & Company P.C. as auditor and authorizing the directors to fix their remuneration, to approve the consolidation of the issued common stock, increase the authorized share capital and change our name requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast in person or by proxy at the Meeting.  If the Meeting is adjourned, your shares may be voted by the proxy holder on the new meeting date unless you have revoked your proxy.


Only votes cast “for” or “against” a proposal are counted.  Abstentions and broker non-votes (or votes withheld in the election of directors) will not be counted, except for purposes of determining a quorum.  Broker non-votes occur when a broker returns a proxy but does not have authority to vote on a particular proposal.


Attending in person


Only shareholders, their proxy holders, and USA Video’s guests may attend the Meeting.


If you hold your shares through someone else, such as a bank or a broker, send proof of your ownership to the Secretary at the address listed above, or you may bring proof of ownership with you in order to be admitted to the Meeting.  Acceptable proof could include an account statement showing that you owned USA Video shares on November 21, 2011.


We will pay the expenses of soliciting proxies.  Proxies may be solicited on our behalf by directors, officers or employees in person or by telephone, email or fax.  We will also reimburse banks, brokers and other persons holding shares in their names or in the names of their nominees for their reasonable out-of-pocket expenses in forwarding proxies and proxy material to the beneficial owners of such shares.


Non-Registered Shareholders


Only registered shareholders or duly appointed proxyholders are permitted to vote at the Meeting.  Most shareholders of our company are “non-registered” shareholders because the shares they own are not registered in their names but are instead registered in the name of the brokerage firm, bank or trust company through which they purchased the shares.  More particularly, a person is a non-registered shareholder in respect of shares which are held on behalf of that person (the “Non-Registered Holder”) but which are registered either (a) in the name of an intermediary (the “Intermediary”) that the Non-Registered Holder deals with in respect of the shares (Intermediaries include, among others, banks, trust companies, securities dealers or brokers and trustees or administrators of self-administered RRSP’s, RRIF’s, RESP’s and similar plans); or (b) in the name of a clearing agency (such as The Canadian Depository for Securities Limited (“CDS”)) of which the Intermediary is a participant.  In accordance with the requirements of National Instrument 54-101 – Communication with Beneficial Owners of Securities of a Reporting Issuer of the Canadian Securities Administrators, we have distributed copies of the Notice of Meeting, Proxy Statement and Form of Proxy (collectively referred to as the “Meeting Material”) to the clearing agencies and Intermediaries for onward distribution to Non-Registered Holders.


Intermediaries are required to forward the Meeting Material to Non-Registered Holders unless a Non-Registered Holder has waived the right to receive them.  Very often, Intermediaries will use service companies to forward the Meeting Material to Non-Registered Holders.  Generally, Non-Registered Holders who have not waived the right to receive the Meeting Material will either:


(a)

be given a Form of Proxy which has already been signed by the Intermediary (typically by a facsimile, stamped signature) which is restricted to the number of shares beneficially owned by the Non-Registered Holder, but which is otherwise not complete.  Because the Intermediary has already signed the Form of Proxy, this Form of Proxy is not required to be signed by the Non-Registered Holder when submitting the proxy.  In this case, the Non-Registered Holder who wishes to submit a proxy should otherwise properly complete the Form of Proxy and deposit it with our registrar and transfer agent, Computershare Trust Company Inc., as provided above; or


(b)

more typically, be given a voting instruction form which is not signed by the Intermediary, and which, when properly completed and signed by the Non-Registered Holder and returned to the Intermediary or its





4



service company, will constitute voting instructions (often called a “proxy” or “authorization form”) which the Intermediary must follow.  Typically, the proxy authorization form will consist of a one page pre-printed form.  Sometimes, instead of the one page printed form, the proxy authorization form will consist of a regular printed proxy form accompanied by a page of instructions that contains a removable label containing a bar-code and other information.  In order for the form of proxy to validly constitute a proxy authorization form, the Non-Registered Holder must remove the label from the instructions and affix it to the form of proxy, properly complete and sign the form of proxy and return it to the Intermediary or its service company in accordance with the instructions of the Intermediary or its service company.


In either case, the purpose of this procedure is to permit Non-Registered Holders to direct the voting of the shares that they beneficially own.  Should a Non-Registered Holder who receives one of the above forms wish to vote at the Meeting in person, the Non-Registered Holder should strike out the names of the management designated proxy holders named in the form and insert the Non-Registered Holder’s name in the blank space provided (executed by the broker).  In either case, Non-Registered Holders should carefully follow the instructions of their Intermediary, including when and where the proxy or proxy authorization form is to be delivered.


A revocation of a Proxy does not affect any matter on which a vote has been taken prior to the revocation.


FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


Our audited financial statements included in the Form 10-K Annual Report for the year ended December 31, 2009, and in the Form 10-K Annual Report for the year ended December 31, 2010, will be presented to the shareholders at the Meeting.


INTEREST OF CERTAIN PERSONS OR COMPANIES IN MATTERS TO BE ACTED UPON


Except as disclosed elsewhere in this Proxy Statement, no director or executive officer who was a director or executive officer since the beginning of our last financial year, each proposed nominee for election as a director, or any associate or affiliates of any such directors, executive officers or nominees, has any material interest, direct or indirect, by way of beneficial ownership of securities or otherwise, in any matter to be acted upon at the Meeting other than the election of directors.


VOTING SECURITIES AND PRINCIPAL HOLDERS OF VOTING SECURITIES


We are authorized to issue 500,000,000 shares of common stock.  As of the Record Date, determined by the Board to be the close of business on November 21, 2011, a total of 191,596,371 common shares were issued and outstanding. Each share carries the right to one vote at the Meeting.  


Only registered shareholders as of the Record Date are entitled to receive notice of, and to attend and vote at, the Meeting or any adjournment or postponement of the Meeting.


To the knowledge of our directors and executive officers, no person or company beneficially owns, directly or indirectly, or exercises control or direction over, common shares carrying more than 10% of the voting rights attached to our outstanding common shares.


ITEM 1:

NUMBER OF DIRECTORS


The board of directors has nominated and recommends FOR election of three current directors and two nominee directors for election at the Meeting.  We are proposing that the number of directors be determined at five for the ensuing year, subject to such increases as may be permitted by our ByLaws.  We currently have four directors.


The enclosed proxy will be voted FOR setting the number of directors at five unless otherwise indicated.  






5



ITEM 2:

ELECTION OF DIRECTORS


The enclosed proxy will be voted FOR the persons nominated unless otherwise indicated.  


If any of the nominees should be unable to serve or should decline to do so, the discretionary authority provided in the proxy will be exercised by the proxy holders to vote for a substitute or substitutes to be designated by the Board of Directors.  The Board of Directors has no reason to believe that any substitute nominee or nominees will be required.


Each nominee elected as a director will hold office until the next annual meeting of shareholders and until his successor is elected and qualified, or until his earlier death, resignation or retirement.  Set forth below for each nominee is his age and his position, if any, in our company.


The information set forth below as to each nominee for director has been furnished to us by the respective nominee.

Audit Committee


The Audit Committee of the Board of Directors consists of Maurice Loverso, Anton J. Drescher and Rowland Perkins.  Rowland Perkins serves as Chairman.  The Board of Directors had determined that each Audit Committee member has sufficient knowledge in financial and accounting matters to serve on the Committee and that Anton J. Drescher is an “audit committee financial expert” as defined by SEC rules.


The Audit Committee meets with our independent auditors at least quarterly to discuss the results of the annual audit or interim periodic reviews and to review the financial statements; appoints the independent auditors to be retained; oversees the independence of the independent accountants; evaluates the independent auditors’ performance; approves fees paid to independent auditors and receives and considers the independent auditors’ comments as to controls, adequacy of staff and management performance and procedures in connection with audit and financial controls. The Audit Committee met informally by telephone conference four times and signed four consent resolutions during fiscal 2009 and 2010.


The Audit Committee is primarily concerned with the effectiveness of our audits by our internal audit staff and by our independent auditors.  Its duties include: (1) recommending the selection of independent auditors; (2) reviewing the scope of the audit to be conducted by them, as well as the results of their audit; (3) reviewing the organization and scope of our internal system of audit and financial controls; (4) appraising our financial reporting activities (including our Proxy Statement and Annual Report) and the accounting standards and principles followed; and (5) examining other reviews relating to compliance by employees with important policies and applicable laws.  The Audit Committee operates under a written Charter adopted by the Board of Directors, a copy of which is attached to this Proxy Statement as Schedule “A”.


Other Committees


The Board of Directors currently has no other committees.


Code of Ethics


We have adopted a Code of Ethics and Corporate Disclosure Policy that applies to our directors, officers and employees and Corporate Governance Guidelines that applies to our directors and officers.  A copy of the Code of Ethics, Corporate Disclosure Policy and Corporate Governance Guidelines are posted on our website at http://www.usvo.com.  These documents are also available in print to any shareholder who requests a copy by sending a written request to our Corporate Secretary at #507, 837 West Hastings Street, Vancouver, British Columbia, V6C 3N6.  


Relationship with Our Independent Auditors


The firm of Killman, Murrell & Company P.C. were appointed as our independent auditor on February 15, 2011.  Previously, John A. Braden, P.C. (the “Former Auditors”) served as our independent auditor for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009 through February 15, 2011.  The Former Auditors were dismissed by the audit committee as our independent registered public accountant firm on February 15, 2011.  The audit report of the Former Auditors for fiscal 2009 did not contain an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion, or was qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principles.  There were no disagreements with the Former Auditors on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure.  The decision to change accountants was recommended by the Audit Committee and approved by the Board of Directors.


The Board of Directors recommended Killman, Murrell & Company P.C. to serve as our independent auditors for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2010.


Services performed by John A. Braden & Company, P.C. for fiscal 2009 consisted of the annual audited financial statements.

AUDIT COMMITTEE REPORT


The material in this report is not "soliciting material," is not deemed "filed" with the SEC, and is not to be incorporated by reference in any of our filings under the Securities Act of 1933 or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”), whether made before or after the date of this proxy statement and irrespective of any general incorporation language therein.


The Audit Committee of the Board assists the Board in carrying out its oversight responsibilities for our financial reporting process, audit process and internal controls.


The Audit Committee has reviewed and discussed our audited financial statements with management, which has primary responsibility for the financial statements. John A. Braden & Company, P.C., our former independent auditors for our 2009 audit, were responsible for expressing an opinion on the conformity of our audited financial statements with generally accepted accounting principles.  Killman, Murrell & Company P.C, our current independent auditors for our 2010 audit, were responsible for expressing an opinion on the conformity of our audited financial statements with generally accepted accounting principles.


In fulfilling its oversight responsibilities, the Audit Committee has reviewed and discussed in detail the audited fiscal year 2010 financial statements with our management and with Killman, Murrell & Company P.C., our independent auditors. In addition, the Audit Committee has discussed with Killman, Murrell & Company P.C. the matters required to be discussed by Statement on Auditing Standards Number 61, Communication with Audit Committees, as modified or supplemented. The Audit Committee has received the written disclosures and the letter from Killman, Murrell & Company P.C. required by Independence Standards Board Standard Number 1, Independence Discussions with Audit Committees, as modified or supplemented, and has discussed with the independent auditors their independence from our company and our management. The Audit Committee has also considered whether Killman, Murrell & Company P.C.’s provision of non-audit services to us is compatible with the independence of such firm.


Members of the Audit Committee rely on the information provided to them and on the representations made to the Committee by management and our independent accountants without conducting independent verification of the accuracy of such information and representations. Accordingly, the Audit Committee's oversight does not ensure that management has maintained appropriate accounting and financial reporting principles or appropriate internal controls and procedures designed to assure compliance with accounting standards and applicable laws and regulations. Furthermore, the Audit Committee's considerations and discussions referred to above do not ensure that any audit of our financial statements conducted by our internal and independent accountants has been carried out in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, or that the financial statements are presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.


Based on these reviews and discussions, the Audit Committee recommended to the Board, and the Board approved, that the audited financial statements be included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010, for filing with the Commission.


Based on the Audit Committee's and management's assessment of the performance of Killman, Murrell & Company P.C. during the audit of our financial statements for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2010, the Audit Committee recommended to the Board that Killman, Murrell & Company P.C. be engaged as our independent auditors for fiscal year 2011.

SECTION 16(A) BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP REPORTING COMPLIANCE


Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires our directors and executive officers, and persons who own more than ten percent of a registered class of our equity securities, to file with the SEC initial reports of ownership and reports of changes in ownership of common stock and other equity securities of our company. Officers, directors and greater than ten percent stockholders are required by SEC regulation to furnish us with copies of all Section 16(a) forms they file.


To our knowledge, based solely on a review of copies of Forms 3, 4 and 5 furnished to us and written representations that no other reports were required, during the fiscal years ended December 31, 2009 and December 31 2010, our officers, directors and 10% shareholders complied with all Section 16(a) filing requirements applicable to them except for Edwin Molina, who did not file a timely Form 4 on several occasions.


DIRECTOR AND EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION AND

OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH MANAGEMENT


Compensation Discussion and Analysis


Overview of Compensation Program


We do not have a compensation committee.  Our Board of Directors (the “Board”) is responsible for establishing, implementing and monitoring adherence with our compensation policy. The Board ensures that the total compensation paid to our directors, officers and employees is fair, reasonable and competitive.


During the financial years ended December 31, 2009 and 2010, we had two Named Executive Officers (“NEO”) being Edwin Molina, our Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and President and Anton J. Drescher, our Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”) and Corporate Secretary.


Named Executive Officer” or “NEO” means: (a) each CEO, (b) each CFO, (c) each of the three most highly compensated executive officers, or the three most highly compensated individuals acting in a similar capacity, other than the CEO and CFO, at the end of the most recently completed financial year whose total compensation was, individually, more than $150,000; and (d) each individual who would be a NEO under (c) above but for the fact that





10



the individual was neither an executive officer of the company, nor acting in a similar capacity, at the end of that financial year.


Employments Contracts


We do not have an employment contract with Mr. Molina and Mr. Drescher.  We have no obligation to provide any compensation to Mr. Molina or Mr. Drescher in the event of his resignation, retirement or termination, or a change in control of our company, or a change in any NEO’s responsibilities following a change in control.


We may in the future create retirement, pension, profit sharing and medical reimbursement plans covering our NEOs and directors.


Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation


Decisions concerning the compensation of our NEOs are made by the Board.  All members of the Board during fiscal 2009 and 2010 (Edwin Molina, Anton J. Drescher, Maurice Loverso and Rowland Perkins) participated in the Board’s deliberations concerning NEO compensation during the fiscal years ended December 31, 2009 and December 31, 2010.


Board of Directors Report on Executive Compensation


The Board determines the compensation of our NEOs.  


We intend to establish a compensation committee at such time as we are able to attract a sufficient number of outside directors to the Board.  We are unable to state when we will be able to establish a formal compensation committee.  Pending establishment of the committee, the entire Board will continue to be responsible for our executive compensation policy.  


Compensation Philosophy


We must compete for, attract, develop, motivate and retain high quality executive management personnel.  In order to do so, we offer a package including a competitive salary and, on a discretionary basis, additional compensation in the form of stock options.


Cash Compensation


Our executive salary levels are intended to be consistent with competitive salary levels and job responsibilities and experience level of each executive, as well as our overall salary structure and financial condition.  Salary changes reflect competitive and economic trends, our overall financial performance and the performance of the individual executive.  Salaries are reviewed annually by the Board.


Stock Options


Stock options are designed to attract and retain executives who can make significant contributions to our success, reward executives for such contributions, give executives a long-term incentive to increase shareholder value, and align the interests of our executive officers with those of our shareholders.


The Board has made, and expects to continue to make, grants of stock options to executive officers.  Recipients of option grants, and the size of the grants, are determined based on several factors, including the responsibilities of the individual officers, their past and anticipated contributions to our success, our overall performance, and prior option grants.  






11



Compensation of the CEO


In setting the compensation payable for 2009 and 2010 to Edwin Molina, our CEO, the Board generally considered the same factors described above.  Additionally, the Board intends that Mr. Molina’s compensation be competitive with compensation paid to chief executive officers of similar sized companies in our industry and to reward Mr. Molina for directing our efforts in initiating and expanding our streaming media business.


Benefits and Perquisites


Our NEOs do not receive any benefits or perquisites other than as disclosed herein.


IRS Limits on Deductibility of Compensation


We are subject to Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, which limits the deductibility of certain compensation payments to our executive officers in excess of $1.0 million.  The cash compensation in 2009 and 2010 paid to the CEO or any other executive officer was well below $1.0 million.  Section 162(m) also provides for certain exemptions to the limitations on deductibility, including compensation that is “performance-based” within the meaning of Section 162(m).  Because we do not currently have a compensation committee comprised solely of outside directors, we currently cannot avail ourselves of the “performance-based” compensation exemption under Section 162(m).


The Board during fiscal 2009 and 2010 consisted of:


Edwin Molina

Anton J. Drescher

Maurice Loverso

Rowland Perkins

The Amended Plan will be administered by the Board of Directors.  The Board of Directors may appoint a committee of the Board of Directors (the “Committee”) comprised of two or more of directors, each of whom will be a “Non-Employee Director” within the meaning of Rule 16b-3 under the Exchange Act, and an “Outside Director” within the meaning of Section 162(m) of the Code, to administer the Amended Plan.  Subject to the terms of the Amended Plan, the Board of Directors or the Committee may determine and designate those employees, directors and consultants to whom options should be granted and the nature and terms of the options to be granted.


Eligibility


All of our employees, including our executive officers and directors who are also employees, are eligible to participate in the Amended Plan.  Additionally, directors who are not employees, as well as our consultants and advisers, are eligible to receive options under the Amended Plan, except that such persons may only receive non-qualified options.


Exercise of Stock Options


The exercise price per share for each option granted under the Amended Plan shall be determined by the Board of Directors or the Committee, subject to the policies of the TSX Venture Exchange (the “TSX.V”).  The price is payable in cash.

15




The options will either be fully exercisable on the date of grant or shall be exercisable thereafter in such installments as the Board of Directors or Committee may specify.  Upon termination of employment or other service of an option holder, an option may only be exercised for a period of three months or, in the case of termination due to disability or death, a period of 12 months.


Transferability


Options granted under the Amended Plan may not be transferred except by will or the laws of the descent and distribution and, during his or her lifetime, options may be exercised only by the optionee.

The Board of Directors unanimously recommends a vote FOR the ratification and approval of Killman, Murrell & Company, P.C. as our independent auditors for the current fiscal year and authorizing the directors to fix their remuneration.


AUDIT COMMITTEE


We are required to have an audit committee comprised of not less than three directors, a majority of whom are not officers, control persons or employees of our company or an affiliate of our company.  Our current audit committee consists of Anton J. Drescher, Maurice Loverso and Rowland Perkins.


Audit Committee Charter


The text of our Audit Committee Charter is attached as Schedule “A” to this Circular.


Composition of the Audit Committee and Independence


National Instrument 52-110 Audit Committees, (“NI 52-110”) provides that a member of an audit committee is “independent” if the member has no direct or indirect material relationship with a company, which could, in the view of the company’s Board, reasonably interfere with the exercise of the member’s independent judgment.


All of the members of our audit committee are independent, as that term is defined in NI 52-110, except for Anton J. Drescher, who is the Corporate Secretary and Chief Financial Officer.


Relevant Education and Experience


NI 52-110 provides that an individual is “financially literate” if he has the ability to read and understand a set of financial statements that present a breadth and level of complexity of accounting issues that are generally comparable to the breadth and complexity of the issues that can reasonably be expected to be raised by a company’s financial statements.  While Maurice Loverso does not meet the criteria of “financially literate”, both Rowland Perkins and Anton J. Drescher are considered financially literate.  Collectively, they have many years of practical business experience, have served as a director of public companies and have experience reviewing financial statements of public companies.  The following sets out the education and experience of Rowland Perkins and Anton J. Drescher that is relevant to the performance of their responsibilities as audit committee members.


Anton J. Drescher provides administrative and consulting services in his capacity as President and a director of Harbour Pacific Capital Corp. since 1998 and Westpoint Management Consultants Ltd. of Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada since 1978.  Mr. Drescher also currently serves as a director and/or officer of the following TSX listed companies: International Tower Hill Mines Ltd. since October 1991, Trevali Resources Corp. since 2008 and Corvus Gold, Inc. since August 2010.  He also serves as a director of Ravencrest Resources Inc., a CNSX listed company, since April 2007 and as a director of Dorato Resources Inc., a TSX.V listed company, since December 1998.  Mr. Drescher obtained a Diploma in Financial Management from the British Columbia Institute of Technology in June 1974.  He also obtained his Certified Management Accountant's designation in October 1981.


Rowland Perkins has been President and a director of eBackup Inc., of Calgary, Alberta, since 2001.  He was previously Alberta Regional Manager of Securitinet Storage Solutions from 1999 to 2001.  Mr. Perkins has served as a director of Corvus Gold Inc., a TSX listed company, since August 2010.






18



Audit Committee Oversight


Since the commencement of our most recently completed fiscal year, our Audit Committee has not made any recommendations to nominate or compensate an external auditor which were not adopted by our Board.


Reliance on Certain Exemptions


Since the commencement of our most recently completed financial year and the effective date of NI 52-110, we have not relied on the exemptions contained in sections 2.4 or 8 of NI 52-110. Section 2.4 provides an exemption from the requirement that the audit committee must pre-approve all non-audit services to be provided by the auditors, where the total amount of fees related to the non-audit services are not expected to exceed 5% of the total amount of fees payable to the auditor in the fiscal year in which the non-audit services were provided.  Section 8 permits a company to apply to a securities regulatory authority for an exemption from the requirements of NI 52-110, in whole or in part.


Pre-Approval Policies and Procedures


Our audit committee has adopted specific policies and procedures for the engagement of non-audit services which is set out in the Audit Committee Charter attached to this Circular as Schedule “A” in the section entitled “Independent Auditor”.


Exemption


We are relying on the exemption provided by Part 6.1 of NI 52-110 for Venture Issuers which allows for an exemption from Part 3 (Composition of the Audit Committee) and Part 5 (Reporting Obligations) of NI 52-110 and allows for the short form of disclosure of audit committee procedures set out in Form 52-110F2 and disclosed in this Circular.


PARTICULARS OF MATTERS TO BE ACTED UPON


ITEM 4:

ADOPTION OF 2011 STOCK OPTION PLAN


Introduction


At the Meeting there will be presented to Shareholders a proposal to approve the adoption of our 2011 Stock Option (the "2011 Plan").  The 2011 Plan was originally adopted by the Board of Directors on November 21, 2011.  The 2011 Plan authorizes the issuance of up to 1,250,000 of our common shares on a post-consolidated basis, subject to adjustment under certain circumstances, pursuant to exercise of options to be granted under the 2011 Plan.  The stock subject to options under the 2011 Plan will be authorized but unissued common shares, including shares issuable under options that terminate without being exercised in whole or in part.  The 2011 Plan provides for the issuance of both incentive stock options and non-qualified options as those terms are defined in the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code").  Under the Code, for stock options to qualify as incentive stock options, the plan under which the options are issued must be approved by our shareholders within twelve months of the adoption of the 2011 Plan by the Board of Directors.  If the 2011 Plan is not approved by the shareholders, the 2011 Plan will continue to be in effect; however, only non-qualified options may be issued under it.


The 2011 Plan is intended to promote the interests of our company and our shareholders by providing incentives to employees, directors and consultants, on whose judgment, initiative, and efforts the successful conduct of our business depends.  These persons are responsible for the management, growth, and protection of our business, and the 2011 Plan provides these individuals with appropriate incentives and rewards to encourage them to maximize their performance and efforts for our company.


Adoption of the 2011 Plan is also subject to approval by the TSX.V.  We will be submitting the 2011 Plan to the TSX.V and anticipate it will be approved.  If the TSX.V should require any amendment to the 2011 Plan, the Board of Directors will make such amendment without shareholder approval to the extent it may do so under the 2011 Plan.  If shareholder approval is required for any such amendment, the Board of Directors will either submit the





19



2011 Plan, as amended, for a vote of the shareholders as soon as reasonably practicable, or will discontinue the 2011 Plan.


On November 21, 2011, the closing bid price for the common shares on the OTC Bulletin Board was $0.01 per share.


The full text of the 2011 Plan appears as Schedule “C” to this Proxy Statement. The principal features of the 2011 Plan are summarized below, but the summary is qualified in its entirety by the full text of the 2011 Plan.

The 2011 Plan will be administered by the Board of Directors.  The Board of Directors may appoint a committee of the Board of Directors (the "Committee") comprised of two or more of directors, each of whom will be a "Non-Employee Director" within the meaning of Rule 16b-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and an "Outside Director" within the meaning of Section 162(m) of the Code, to administer the 2011 Plan.  Subject to the terms of the 2011 Plan, the Board of Directors or the Committee may determine and designate those employees, directors and consultants to whom options should be granted and the nature and terms of the options to be granted.


Eligibility


All employees, including its executive officers and directors who are also employees, are eligible to participate in the 2011 Plan.  Additionally, directors who are not employees, as well as consultants and advisers, are eligible to receive options under the 2011 Plan, except that such persons may only receive non-qualified options.


Exercise of Stock Options


The exercise price per share for each option granted under the 2011 Plan shall be determined by the Board of Directors or the Committee.  However, the exercise price per share of each incentive stock option granted under the 2011 Plan shall not be less than the fair market value of the common shares on the date of the grant for incentive stock options; and 110% of the fair market value of the common shares for each incentive stock option granted to an individual owning more than 10% of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock ("10% Shareholders"). In addition, because our shares are traded on the TSX.V, the exercise price of options granted under the 2011 Plan may not be less than the minimum price permitted under TSX.V policies, which is generally the market price at the close of trading on the day immediately preceding the day the options are granted, subject to certain allowable discounts. The price is payable in cash.


Subject to earlier termination upon termination of employment and the incentive stock option limitations as provided in the 2011 Plan, each option shall expire on the date specified by the Board of Directors or the Committee, which shall be no later than five years from the date of grant for grants to 10% Shareholders and ten years for all other options.  


The options will either be fully exercisable on the date of grant or shall be exercisable thereafter in such installments as the Board of Directors or Committee may specify.  Upon termination of employment or other service of an option holder, an option may only be exercised for a period of three months or, in the case of termination due to disability or death, a period of 12 months.


Change in Control


If we were to be consolidated with or acquired by another entity in a merger, or there is to be a sale of all or substantially all of our assets or stock, the Board of Directors may either by agreement or by action taken before the triggering transaction (i) provide in any agreement with the surviving, new or acquiring company to grant options to the optionees to replace options granted under the 2011 Plan, (ii) make unvested options immediately exercisable, or (iii) take such other action as it determines may be reasonable under the circumstances in order to permit optionees to realize the value of the rights granted to them under the 2011 Plan.






20



Transferability


Options granted under the 2011 Plan may not be transferred except by will or the laws of the descent and distribution and, during his or her lifetime, options may be exercised only by the optionee.


Certain Adjustments


In the event of any change in the number or kind of our outstanding common shares by reason of a stock dividend, stock split, recapitalization, combination, subdivision, rights issuance or other similar corporate change, the Board of the Committee shall make such adjustment in the number of common shares that may be issued under the 2011 Plan, and the number of common shares subject to, and the exercise price of, each then-outstanding option, as it, in its sole discretion, deems appropriate.


Amendment or Discontinuance


The Board may amend or discontinue the 2011 Plan, provided that no amendment may, without an optionee's consent, materially and adversely effect any rights under any option previously granted to the optionee under the 2011 Plan.  Additionally, the approval of our shareholders is required for any amendment that would:


·

increase or decrease the number of common shares that may be issued under the 2011 Plan; or


·

materially modify the requirements as to eligibility for participation  in the 2011 Plan.


Tax Treatment of Options


Incentive stock options granted under the 2011 Plan are intended to be qualified incentive stock options under the provisions of Section 422 of the Code.  All other options granted under the 2011 Plan are non-qualified options not entitled to special tax treatment under Section 422 of the Code.  Generally, the grant of an incentive stock option will not result in taxable income for income tax purposes to the optionee at the time of the grant, and we will not be entitled to an income tax deduction at such time.  Generally, the grant of non-qualified options will not result in taxable income to the optionee at the time of the grant and we will not be entitled to an income tax deduction at such time.


When incentive stock options granted under the 2011 Plan are exercised, the optionee will not be treated as receiving any taxable income, and we will not be entitled to an income tax deduction. However, the excess of the fair market value of the shares acquired over the option exercise price is an item of adjustment in computing the alternative minimum tax of the optionee.  Upon the exercise of a non-qualified option, an optionee will recognize ordinary income in an amount equal to the excess of the fair market value of the underlying shares of our common stock at the time of exercise over the exercise price.  Thus, the optionee will have to pay taxes at the time a non-qualified option is exercised even though the shares received upon exercise might not be sold until a later taxable year.  For employees (including officers and directors who are considered employees for purposes of the withholding provisions of the Code), the income recognized on the exercise of a non-qualified option is subject to withholding of income tax under Section 3402(a) of the Code.


We will receive an income tax deduction for the amount of ordinary income recognized by the optionee at the time and in the amount that the optionee recognizes such income to the extent permitted by Section 162(m) of the Code and provided that (i) such income constitutes reasonable compensation and is otherwise deductible under the Code and (ii) our U.S. federal income tax withholding obligations with respect to such income are satisfied.


An optionee's tax basis in the shares received upon exercise of an incentive stock option will be equal to the exercise price paid by the optionee for such shares.  An optionee's tax basis in the shares received upon the exercise of a non-qualified option will be equal to the sum of (i) the exercise price paid by the optionee for such shares and (ii) the amount that the optionee is required to include in gross income upon exercising the non-qualified option.  Upon the later disposition of the shares received upon exercise of an option, any differences between the tax basis of the shares and the amount realized on the disposition is generally treated as long-term or short-term capital gain or loss, depending on the holding period of the common shares. Nevertheless, if the shares subject to an incentive stock option are disposed of before the expiration of two years from the date of grant and one year from the date of





21



exercise, the optionee will realize ordinary income on an amount equal to the excess, if any, of the fair market value of the shares, upon exercise of the option over the option price (or, if less, the excess of the amount realized upon disposition over the option price) and we will receive a corresponding income tax deduction.


In order for an optionee to receive the favorable tax treatment for incentive stock options, certain requirements set forth in Section 422 of the Code must be met.  For example, the optionee must be an officer or employee at all times within the period beginning on the date of grant of the option and ending on a date within three months before the date of exercise.  In addition, the aggregate fair market value (determined at the time of grant) of the shares for which incentive stock options are exercisable for the first time by the optionee in any calendar year under all relevant plans of our company (and certain affiliates) cannot exceed $100,000.


The description above is intended to summarize the general principles of current federal income tax law applicable to options that may be granted under the 2011 Plan.  The tax consequences of awards made under the 2011 Plan are complex, subject to change, and may vary depending on the taxpayer's particular circumstances. Additionally, the grant and exercise of options under the 2011 Plan to persons outside the United States may be taxed on a different basis.


Required Vote


The affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast on this Item at the Meeting is required for the adoption of the 2011 Plan.


The Board of Directors unanimously recommends a vote FOR the adoption of the 2011 Stock Option Plan.


ITEM 5:

CONSOLIDATION OF ISSUED SHARE CAPITAL


Our shareholders will be asked to approve an alteration of our share capital by way of a reverse stock split by consolidating all of our currently authorized share capital of 500,000,000 common shares without par value, of which 191,596,371 common shares are issued and outstanding, on a one new for fifteen old basis, resulting in an authorized share capital of 33,333,333 common shares without par value, of which 12,773,091 common shares will be issued and outstanding.


If the reverse stock split is completed, our Board of Directors has determined that no fractional shares will be issued and any fractional shares that may have been issuable as a result of the reverse stock split will be deemed cancelled.  Accordingly, if the reverse split is completed, shareholders with an odd number of shares will lose any fractional share they might otherwise have been entitled to.  


The purpose of the reverse stock split is to allow flexibility in our capital structure and financing plans in the future as a decreased number of issued shares will make our company more attractive to prospective investors.  There is no guarantee that we will be successful in raising the financing by the issuance of equity shares.  If we are successful in raising additional equity funding then any shares that may be issued will result in an increased dilution of your shareholdings on a percentage basis.  


The proposed reverse stock split is not the first step in a “going private” transaction, nor are there any plans to go private.  The proposed reverse stock split of our issued share capital could have the effect of delaying or preventing a change of control of our company.  It is not currently our intention to propose other anti-takeover measures in future proxy solicitations.  Management is not aware of any effort to accumulate our securities or to obtain control by means of a merger, tender offer, solicitation in opposition to current management or otherwise.


The proposed reverse stock split is subject to regulatory approval.  


The affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast on this Item at the Meeting is required for the alteration of our share capital by consolidating all of our common shares on a ten old for one new basis.  





22



Notwithstanding approval, the board of directors may determine not to proceed with the share consolidation at any time prior to its effective date.


The Board of Directors unanimously recommends a vote FOR a consolidation of our issued share capital, and the persons named in the enclosed form of proxy intend to vote for the approval of the resolution at the Meeting unless otherwise directed by the shareholders appointing them.


The proposed consolidation will not alter or change in any way any shareholder’s proportion of votes to total votes, however, the total votes capable of being cast by shareholders at a general meeting in the future will be reduced if the resolution is passed.  Any resulting fractional share will be dealt with by taking the number of shares issuable on the exchange to the nearest lower whole share.


For greater certainty, the maximum number of common shares that we are authorized to issue will remain at a maximum of 500,000,000 shares of common stock, subject to approval of the increase in authorized share capital post-consolidation.


ITEM 6

INCREASE IN AUTHORIZED SHARE CAPITAL



Subject to approval of the reverse stock split referred to in Item 5 above, our shareholders will be asked to approve a subsequent alteration of our share capital by increasing our authorized capital from 33,333,333 common shares without par value to 500,000,000 common shares without par value, of which 12,773,091 common shares will be issued and outstanding.


The purpose of the increase in authorized share capital is to increase the number of authorized shares to our current authorized of 500,000,000 share capital, as the reverse stock split will result in a decreased number of authorized share capital of 33,333,333 common shares. We would like to maintain the authorized share capital at 500,000,000 common shares in order to allow us more flexibility in the future in developing our business, purchasing new assets and future financings, as any of these events would likely result in the issuance of additional shares.  The increase in the authorized share capital is not being carried out in connection with any acquisition or proposed acquisition of our company.


The proposed increase in the authorized share capital is subject to regulatory approval.


The affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast on this Item 6 at the Meeting is required for the subsequent increase in the authorized share capital to 500,000,000 common shares.


The Board of Directors unanimously recommends a vote FOR the subsequent increase in our authorized share capital to 500,000,000 common shares.


ITEM 7

CHANGE OF NAME


Our shareholders will be asked to approve a change of our name from “USA Video Interactive Corp.” to “Oculus VisionTech Inc.”, or such other name as determined by the Board of Directors and is acceptable to the regulatory authorities.


The proposed name change is related to our plan to consolidate our share capital by way of a reverse stock split on a ten old shares for one new share basis.  The name change is necessary in order to provide a distinct new name for the consolidated shares.


The proposed name change is subject to regulatory approval.  


The affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast on this Item at the Meeting is required for the approval of our change of name to "Oculus VisionTech Inc.".






23



The Board of Directors unanimously recommends a vote FOR our change of name to "Oculus VisionTech Inc.".

SCHEDULE “B”


DISCLOSURE OF CORPORATE GOVERNANCE DISCLOSURE


National Instrument 58-101, Disclosure of Corporate Governance Practices, requires all reporting issuers to provide certain annual disclosure of their corporate governance practices with respect to the corporate governance guidelines (the “Guidelines”) adopted in National Policy 58-201. These Guidelines are not prescriptive, but have been used by us in adopting our corporate governance practices.  Our approach to corporate governance is set out below.


Mandate and Responsibility of the Board


Our Board is responsible for supervising management in carrying on the business and affairs of our company.  Directors are required to act and exercise their powers with reasonable prudence in our best interests.  The Board agrees with and confirms its responsibility for overseeing management's performance in the following particular areas: our strategic planning process; identification and management of the principal risks associated with our business; planning for succession of management; our policies regarding communications with our shareholders and others; and the integrity of our internal controls and management information systems.


In carrying out its mandate, the Board relies primarily on management to provide it with regular detailed reports on our operations and our financial position.  The Board reviews and assesses these reports and other information provided to it at meetings of the full Board and of its committees.  Our CEO is a member of the Board, giving the Board direct access to information on all areas of responsibility.  


The independent directors do not hold separate meetings at which members of management are absent.  


Composition of the Board


The Board facilitates its exercise of independent supervision over our management through frequent communication with the Board.


The Board is comprised of four directors, of whom Maurice Loverso and Rowland Perkins are independent.  Edwin Molina is not independent since he serves as President and Anton J. Drescher is not independent as he serves as Corporate Secretary and Chief Financial Officer.


Directorships


Certain of the directors are also directors of other reporting issuers, as follows:

Rowland Perkins

Dorato Resources Inc.

Strikepoint Gold Inc.


Meetings Attended Out of Meetings Held


We did not hold any Board Meetings during fiscal 2010.  All matters were approved by way of consent resolutions signed by all directors.




2



Orientation and Continuing Education


The Board does not have any formal policies with respect to the orientation of new directors nor does it take any measures to provide continuing education for the directors.  At this stage of our development the Board does not feel it necessary to have such policies or programs in place.  New directors are provided with access to our recent, publicly filed documents and our internal financial information, are provided with access to management and technical experts and consultants and a summary of significant corporate and securities responsibilities.


Members of the Board are encouraged to communicate with management, auditors and technical consultants, to keep themselves current with industry trends and developments and changes in legislation with management’s assistance and to attend related industry seminars and visit our offices.  Board members have full access to our records.


Ethical Business Conduct


Our Board currently has a written code of ethics and views good corporate governance as an integral component to our success.  In addition, our Board monitors on an ongoing basis the activities of management to ensure that the highest standard of ethical conduct is maintained.  The Board views good corporate governance as an integral component to its success and to meet its responsibilities to shareholders. As we do not have a large number of officers and consultants, the Board is able to monitor on an ongoing basis the activities of management and to ensure that the highest standard of ethical conduct is maintained.  


Board Approvals and Review


No formal description has yet been established of the types of decisions by us which will require prior Board approval.  To date, all substantive decisions involving acquisitions, major financings, major asset sales, budgets and major business initiatives have been referred to the Board.  As and when our activities evolve beyond the early stages of exploration and development for mineral interests, review and approval criteria will be further considered and specific dollar capital amounts established.


Nomination of Directors


The Board considers its size each year when it considers the number of directors to recommend to the shareholders for election at the annual meeting of shareholders, taking into account the number required to carry out the Board’s duties effectively and to maintain a diversity of view and experience.


The Board does not have a nominating committee, and these functions are currently performed by the Board as a whole.  However, if there is a change in the number of directors required by us, this policy will be reviewed.


Position Descriptions


The Board has not developed written position descriptions for the Chairman, the Chairman of Board Committees, or the Chief Executive Officer.  The Board is of the view that given our size, the relatively frequent discussions between Board members and the CEO, and the experience of the individual members of the Board, the responsibilities of such individuals are known and understood without position descriptions being reduced to writing. The Board will evaluate this position from time to time and if written position descriptions appear to be justified, they will be prepared.


Compensation


Our independent directors, Maurice Loverso and Rowland Perkins, have the responsibility for determining compensation for the directors and senior management and the quantity and quality of the Board compensation is reviewed on an annual basis.  To determine compensation payable, the independent directors review compensation paid to directors, CEOs and CFOs of companies of similar size and at a similar stage of development in our industry and determine an appropriate compensation reflecting the need to provide incentive and compensation for the time and effort expended by the directors and senior management while taking into account our financial and other resources.  In setting the compensation, the independent directors annually review the performance of the CEO and





3



CFO in light of our objectives and consider other factors that may have impacted our success in achieving our objectives.


At present, we are not paying any compensation to the directors and senior management. We may in the future grant incentive stock options.  The number of options to be granted is determined by the Board as a whole, which allows the independent directors to have input into compensation decisions.  At this time, we do not believe our size and limited scope of operations requires a formal compensation committee.


Description of Board Committees


At the present time, our only standing committee is the Audit Committee.  As our directors are actively involved in our operations, and the size of our operations does not warrant a larger Board, the Board has determined that additional committees are not necessary at this stage of our development.


The written charter of the Audit Committee, as required by NI 52-110, is contained in Schedule “A” to this Proxy Statement.  As we grow, and our operations and management structure become more complex, the Board expects it will constitute formal standing committees, such as a Corporate Governance Committee, a Compensation Committee and a Nominating Committee, and will ensure that such committees are governed by written charters and are composed of at least a majority of independent directors.


Assessments


Our Board does not consider that formal assessments would be useful at this stage of our development.  The Board conducts informal annual assessments of the Board’s effectiveness, the individual directors and of our Audit Committee. To assist in its review, the Board conducts informal surveys of its directors about assessment of the functioning of the Board.  As part of the assessments, the Board or the individual committee may review its mandate and conduct reviews of applicable corporate policies.
