AMENDMENT OF THE COMPANY’S

2005 EQUITY INCENTIVE PLAN

In December of 2005, the Board adopted, and our shareholders subsequently approved, the Intersearch Group, Inc. 2005 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Equity Incentive Plan”). As of June 22, 2006, there were 744,124 shares of common stock reserved for issuance under the Equity Incentive Plan.

As of June 22, 2006, options (net of any terminated, expired or forfeited options) covering an aggregate of 655,000 shares of our common stock had been granted under the Equity Incentive Plan. Only 89,124 shares of common stock (plus any shares that might in the future be returned to the Equity Incentive Plan as a result of the termination, expiration, or forfeiture of options) remained available for future grant under the Equity Incentive Plan as of such date. Management believes that the number of shares of common stock currently available for issuance under the Equity Incentive Plan is insufficient to meet its needs to provide for awards to the plan participants for the next twelve months.

On December 16, 2005, our Board of Directors approved and adopted an amendment to our Equity Incentive Plan, subject to shareholder approval. On June 22, 2006, shareholders owning approximately 53.3% of the outstanding shares of our common stock approved the amendment to the Equity Incentive Plan by action taken by written consent without a meeting in accordance with the Florida Business Corporation Act. No further vote of our shareholders is required to approve the amendment to the Equity Incentive Plan. Such approval by our shareholders will be effective 20 calendar days after the date this Information Statement is first mailed to our shareholders.

The amendment to our Equity Incentive Plan will increase the number of shares of common stock with respect to which awards may be granted under the Equity Incentive Plan from (1) 744,124 to 1,744,124 and (2) provide that as of December 16, 2005, any shares of common stock subject to awards granted under the Company’s 2004 Equity Incentive Plan, as amended, that become available for new grants under the terms of such plan will be available for the purpose of granting awards under the Equity Incentive Plan, thereby increasing the number of shares of common stock available for issuance under the Equity Incentive Plan. The complete text of the amendment is set forth at the end of this Information Statement.

The principal provisions of the Equity Incentive Plan, as amended, are summarized below.

Purpose of the Equity Incentive Plan. The purpose of the Equity Incentive Plan is to advance the interests of the shareholders of the Company by enhancing our ability to attract, retain and motivate persons who make or are expected to make important contributions to the Company and its subsidiaries by providing such persons with equity ownership opportunities and performance-based incentives. In addition, by encouraging stock ownership by non-employee directors, the plan is intended to enable our company to seek to attract and retain directors of exceptional competence and to provide a further incentive to serve as a director.

Eligibility. The Equity Incentive Plan provides for the granting to employees of incentive stock options within the meaning of Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and for the granting to employees and consultants of nonstatutory stock options. In addition, the Equity Incentive Plan permits the granting of stock appreciation rights, or SARs, with or independently of options, as well as stock bonuses and rights to purchase restricted stock. Approximately, 24 employees (including our executive officers) are eligible to receive awards under the Equity Incentive Plan.

Option Grants to Non-Employee Directors. The 2005 Plan also provides for automatic annual option grants to our non-employee directors. Each non-employee director will receive, on the day following the annual meeting of shareholders each year, commencing with the annual shareholders’ meeting in 2007, a nonqualified stock option to purchase 45,000 shares of our common stock. When a non-employee director first joins our board, then the director will receive an initial grant of stock options to purchase 60,000 shares of our common stock.


Options granted to our non-employee directors under the Equity Incentive Plan will have an exercise price equal to the fair market value of a share of our common stock on the option grant date. Currently, four of our directors are non-employee directors.

Administration. The Equity Incentive Plan is administered by a committee appointed by our Board of Directors or by the full Board. Subject to the discretion of the Board, all members of such committee must be a non-employee director and an outside director, as defined in the Equity Incentive Plan. Currently, the Equity Incentive Plan is administered by our compensation committee. Subject to the limitations set forth in the Equity Incentive Plan, the administrator has the authority to select the persons to whom grants are to be made, to designate the number of shares to be covered by each stock award, to determine whether an option is to be an incentive stock option or a nonstatutory stock option, to establish vesting schedules, to specify the option exercise price and the type of consideration to be paid upon exercise, and, subject to some restrictions, to specify other terms of stock awards. The unanimous approval of the Board is required to alter the vesting schedule described below for option grants to non-employee directors.

Exercise Price. The administrator establishes the option exercise price, which in the case of incentive stock options, must be at least the fair market value of the common stock on the date of the grant or, with respect to optionees who own at least 10% of our outstanding common stock, 110% of fair market value. The fair market value of our common stock for purposes of the Equity Incentive Plan is determined by such methods or procedures as shall be established from time to time by the administrator.

Transfer. Options granted under the Equity Incentive Plan are generally not transferable by the optionee except by will or the laws of descent and distribution, and to certain related individuals with the consent of the administrator. Incentive stock options must be exercised within three months after the optionee’s termination of employment for any reason other than disability or death, or within 12 months after the optionee’s termination by disability or death. Options granted to non-employee directors must be exercised within 90 days of the date they cease to be a director. Other options must be exercised within the time periods prescribed in the applicable award agreement as determined by the administrator.

Vesting. Options granted under the Equity Incentive Plan vest as follows: (1) for initial grants at the rate specified in the option agreement, provided that initial option grants to non-employee directors will vest in two annual increments beginning on the grant date of the option, and (2) annual grants to non-employee directors will vest in 24 equal monthly installments beginning one month after the date of grant of the option. However, in no event may an option be exercised later than the earlier of the expiration of the term of the option or ten years from the date of the grant of the option, or when an optionee owns stock representing more than 10% of the voting power, five years from the date of the grant of the option in the case of incentive stock options.

Change in Control. In the event of a change in control, any outstanding option that is not assumed or continued, or an equivalent option or right is not substituted therefor pursuant to the change in control transaction’s governing document, shall become fully vested and exercisable immediately prior to the effective date of such change in control and shall expire upon the effective date of such change in control. The term “change in control” shall be deemed to have occurred if (1) any person is or becomes the beneficial owner, directly or indirectly, of an amount of our securities representing 50% or more of the combined voting power of our then outstanding securities; or (2) our shareholders approve a plan of complete liquidation or dissolution or there is consummated an agreement for the sale or disposition of all or substantially all of our assets, other than a sale or disposition of all or substantially all of our assets to an entity, at least 50% of the combined voting power of the voting securities of which are owned by our shareholders following the completion of such transaction in substantially the same proportions as their ownership immediately prior to such sale.


Limitation on Statutory Stock Options. Any incentive stock options granted to an optionee which, when combined with all other incentive stock options becoming exercisable for the first time in any calendar year that are held by that person, would have an aggregate fair market value in excess of $100,000, shall automatically be treated as nonstatutory stock options.

Amendment and Termination. The Equity Incentive Plan may be amended, altered, suspended or terminated by our board of directors at any time, but no such amendment, alteration, suspension or termination may adversely affect the terms of any option previously granted without the consent of the affected optionee, and any amendment will be subject to shareholder approval to the extent required by applicable law, rules or regulations. Unless terminated sooner, the Equity Incentive Plan will terminate automatically in 2015.

Stock Subject to the Equity Incentive Plan. The maximum number of shares of common stock with respect to which plan awards may be granted under the Equity Incentive Plan, as amended, is 1,744,124 plus that number of shares of common stock subject to awards granted under the Company’s 2004 Equity Incentive Plan, as amended, that become available for new grants under the terms of such plan on or after December 16, 2005. Assuming effectiveness of the above-described amendment to the Equity Incentive Plan, as of June 22, 2006, there would be 1,156,311 shares available for option grants (67,187 of which became available for grant pursuant to the terms of the Company’s 2004 Equity Incentive Plan) and there were 655,000 options outstanding, of which 145,000 options were exercisable.

Federal Income Tax Consequences

A recipient of an incentive stock option will not recognize any taxable income upon the grant of the option or at the time of exercise (although the optionee will have income for alternative minimum income tax purposes at that time as if the option were a nonqualified stock option). If the shares acquired upon exercise of the incentive stock option are sold or exchanged after the later of (a) one year from the date of exercise of the options and (b) two years from the date of grant of the option, the difference between the amount realized by the optionee on that sale or exchange and the option price will be taxed to the optionee as a long-term capital gain or loss. If the shares are disposed of before such holding period requirements are satisfied, then the optionee will have ordinary income in the year of disposition equal to the difference between the exercise price and the lower of the fair market value of the stock at the date of the option exercise or the sale of the stock and the optionee will have capital gain or loss, long-term or short-term, as the case may be, in an amount equal to the difference between (i) the amount realized by the optionee upon that disposition of the shares and (ii) the option price paid by the optionee increased by the amount of ordinary income, if any, so recognized by the optionee.

Any options granted under the Equity Incentive Plan to non-employee directors will be nonqualified stock options, which do not qualify as incentive stock options and will not qualify for any special tax benefits to the option holder. An option holder generally will not recognize any taxable income at the time of the grant of a nonqualified stock option. However, upon the option’s exercise, the option holder will recognize ordinary income for federal income tax purposes measured by the excess of the fair market value of the shares on the exercise date over the exercise price. The income realized by an option holder who is also an employee will be subject to income and other employee withholding taxes.

The option holder’s basis for determination of gain or loss upon the subsequent disposition of shares acquired upon the exercise of a nonqualified stock option will be the amount paid for such shares plus any ordinary income recognized as a result of the exercise of such option. Upon disposition of any shares acquired pursuant to the exercise of a nonqualified stock option, the difference between the sale price and the option holder’s basis in the shares will be treated as a capital gain or loss and generally will be characterized as long-term capital gain or loss if the shares have been held for more than one year at their disposition.


In general, there will be no federal income tax deduction allowed to the Company upon the grant or termination of a nonqualified stock option or a sale or disposition of the shares acquired upon the exercise of a nonqualified stock option. However, upon the exercise of a nonqualified stock option, the Company will be entitled to a deduction for federal income tax purposes equal to the amount of ordinary income that an option holder is required to recognize as a result of the exercise, provided that the deduction is not otherwise disallowed under the Internal Revenue Code (the “Code”).

Requirements Regarding “Deferred Compensation”

Certain of the awards under the Equity Incentive Plan may constitute “deferred compensation” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code, a recently enacted provision governing “nonqualified deferred compensation plans.” Failure to comply with the requirements of the provisions of the Code regarding participant elections and the timing of payment distributions could result in the affected participants being required to recognize ordinary income for tax purposes earlier than the times otherwise applicable as described in the above discussion and to pay substantial penalties.

Because the administrator of the Equity Incentive Plan has complete discretion to determine awards under the Equity Incentive Plan, except for the automatic grants to non-employee directors, it is not possible to determine the benefits or amounts, if any, that will be received or allocated to any person under the Equity Incentive Plan. The following table presents certain information with respect to options currently anticipated to be granted under the Equity Incentive Plan within twelve months following June 22, 2006 to non-employee directors.

(1) There is no active trading market for our stock. Our board of directors determined the fair market value of our common stock to be $1.60, based on the most recent sale price of our shares in our October 2005 private placement transaction.

Director Compensation

Historically, we paid no cash compensation to any Board member for serving on our Board of Directors. Beginning in our 2006 fiscal year, we began compensating our non-employee directors for serving on our Board, plus providing reimbursement of expenses incurred in attending Board meetings. No director who is an employee will receive separate compensation for services rendered as a director. Our directors are eligible to participate in our 2005 Equity Incentive Plan and are eligible to receive stock options granted under our 2005 Equity Incentive Plan. On December 16, 2005, our board of directors approved grants to each of our non-employee directors of options to purchase 60,000 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $1.60, to vest in two annual installments, beginning on the date of grant. Commencing with our annual shareholders’ meeting in 2007, each active board member will receive on the day following our annual meeting of shareholders each year an annual grant of options to purchase 45,000 shares of our common stock, which will vest in 24 equal monthly installments beginning 30 days after the grant date. Options granted to our non-employee directors will have an exercise price equal to the fair market value of a share of our common stock on the date of grant.

NO DISSENTERS’ RIGHTS

You do not have the right to dissent and obtain an appraisal of your shares under Florida law in connection with the amendments to our Equity Incentive Plan described in this Information Statement.
