The following summary highlights selected information contained in this prospectus. This summary does not contain all the information you should consider before investing in the securities. Before making an investment decision, you should read the entire prospectus carefully, including the “risk factors” section, the financial statements, the footnotes to financial statements and specifically the footnote describing the convertible debentures.

THE PAWS PET COMPANY, INC.

 

Business Summary

 

Our mission is to connect the world through pets. From inception until January 2012, the Company through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Pet Airways, Inc. operated an airline designed specifically for the comfortable and safe transportation of pets by traveling in the main cabin of the aircraft. Pet owners booked their pets on flights online at the Company’s website or booked with its agents by phone. On the day of the scheduled flight, pet owners dropped off their pets at one of the Company’s facilities located at the departure airport. The Company placed the pet passengers into a pet-friendly carrier and then aboard the carrier into the main cabin of the aircraft. The Company ran a scheduled coast to coast service. In January 2012, the Company suspended flight operations due to low bookings and insufficient capital and in April of 2012 decided to cease airline operations.

 

In February of 2012, the Company acquired Impact Social Networks, Inc. (“ISN”) a Georgia corporation. ISN owns a number of technology assets that had not reached technical feasibility at the time of the acquisition. With the exception of these technology assets ISN had no other assets or liabilities at the time of the acquisition. Following the acquisition, the Company commenced a new strategy of developing technologies for pet owners and pet caregivers.

 

On March 16, 2012 the Company launched a beta version of a social media application called “Pawdoodle”. This is an application that can be used in conjunction with social media platforms such as Facebook, Twitter and Google Plus. We believe Pawdoodle is the first social networking application that has been developed specifically for pet owners and pet caregivers that works across a number of social media platforms. By using Pawdoodle, pet owners can build web pages for their pets within social media platforms, post and view pictures of their pets, follow pet breeds and pet adoptions. Pawdoodle also allows pet owners to store pet microchip data. We plan to add additional features to Pawdoodle such as host pages on celebrity pets, include information on veterinary offices and pet care organizations over the coming months.

 

We are not currently generating revenues from Pawdoodle. Our focus over the coming months is to build the user base of this application with the expectation that we will be able to generate revenues in the future from selling advertising space on our social network application to pet related businesses. We expect we will need to have at least 1.5 million users before we will be able to generate revenues by charging for advertising space within the application. We also expect to be able to generate revenues from data mining our database.

 

Organizational History

 

We were incorporated in the State of Illinois on June 6, 2005 as American Antiquities, Inc. (“AAI”). Historically, we purchased antiques and collectible items for resale, accepted items on consignment, and sold items through various auctions and third party Internet websites.

 

On August 13, 2010, we completed a reverse acquisition transaction through a share exchange with Pet Airways, which was a successor entity to Panther Air Cargo, LLC (the “Acquisition”), whereby AAI acquired 100% of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Pet Airways in exchange for 25,000,000 shares of our common stock, which constituted approximately 73% of our issued and outstanding capital stock immediately after the consummation of the Acquisition.

Panther Air Cargo, LLC was formed as a limited liability company in the State of Florida in February 2005. From 2005 through 2009, Panther Air Cargo d/b/a Pet Airways evaluated the market for pet air travel, including reservation systems and processes. It also considered whether it should own its own planes or contract with third parties. It also evaluated the optimal ways to configure the aircraft for safe pet travel and the initial markets to commence flight operations in. Pet Airways began to operate weekly flight operations in July 2009 until March 2010. In March 2010 Pet Airways suspended flight operations to upgrade its online reservation system and to raise additional capital. In June 2010 Pet Airways resumed flight operation after it implemented the new reservation system and raised additional capital by issuing a series of convertible debentures, shares of common stock and warrants. Immediately prior to the Acquisition, Panther Air Cargo, LLC was converted to Pet Airways.

 

As a result of the Acquisition, Pet Airways became a wholly-owned subsidiary of ours and the controlling stockholders of Pet Airways, Inc. (Florida) became our controlling stockholders. Also, upon completion of the Acquisition, we changed our name from American Antiquities, Inc. to Pet Airways, Inc. and commenced trading under the symbol “PAWS” on the OTC QB.T he OTC QB market tier of the OTC market helps investors identify companies that are current in their reporting obligations with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). OTC QB securities are quoted on OTC Markets Group's quotation and trading system. On July 27, 2011, we filed Articles of Amendment to amend our Articles of Incorporation to change our name to The PAWS Pet Company, Inc.

 

The share exchange transaction was treated as a reverse acquisition, with Pet Airways, Inc. (Florida) as the acquirer and The PAWS Pet Company, Inc. as the acquired entity. Unless the context suggests otherwise, when we refer in this report to business and financial information for periods prior to the consummation of the reverse acquisition, we are referring to the business and financial information of Pet Airways, Inc. and its predecessors. For accounting purposes, the acquisition of Pet Airways, Inc. has been treated as a recapitalization with no adjustment to the historical book and tax basis of the companies’ assets and liabilities.

 

Upon the closing of the Acquisition on August 13, 2010, Joseph A. Merkel, our former Chief Executive Officer, President and director and Kevin T. Quinlan, our former Chief Financial Officer, Controller and director, resigned. On the same day, our board of directors approved an increase in the size of our board to three board members and appointed Dan Wiesel, Alysa Binder and Andrew Warner to our board of directors at the effective time of the resignation of Messrs. Merkel and Quinlan, to fill the vacancies created by their resignation. In addition, our board of directors appointed Mr. Wiesel as our Chief Executive Officer and Ms. Binder as our Executive Vice President effective immediately at the closing of the Acquisition.

 

On June 3, 2011, we entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Socius Agreement”) with Socius CG II, Ltd. (“Socius”) pursuant to which we secured $500,000 of funding through the issuance and sale to Socius of 2,253,470 shares of our common stock. In connection with the Socius Agreement, we also entered into a Registration Rights Agreement (the “Rights Agreement”), pursuant to which we agreed to file and maintain the effectiveness of one or more registration statements. We filed the initial registration statement on June 20, 2011, which was declared effective on January 12, 2012. In addition, we may be subject to additional penalties if we fail to maintain the effectiveness of the registration statement.

 

In January 2012, the Company suspended flight operations.

 

On February 23, 2012, the Company acquired 100% of the issued and outstanding capital of Impact Social Networks, Inc., a Georgia corporation in exchange for 7,394,056 shares of the Company's common stock, no par value per share. Under the terms of the Agreement, the Company may issue additional shares of its Common Stock to the Sellers based upon the attainment by the Company of certain milestones.

 

Description of Market

 

The Company believes that there is a large market for its social media networking technologies that allow pet owners and pet caregivers to interact using existing social networking tools such as Facebook, Twitter and Google plus. The Company believes it is the first to market with a social media application designed specifically for connecting pet owners and pet caregivers that works within existing social networking platforms. The Company does however face competition from the existing social networking platforms such as Facebook who could decide to develop their own pet-centric applications. Potential competitors may have substantially more users and financial resources. Potential users of our applications may find the small size and limited resources of the Company to be negative.

 

7
 

  

The Company’s primary strategic objective is to increase the number of users of its applications, so it can charge potential advertisers for space within the application and eventually sell pet related data mining services. We intend to employ a number of marketing techniques to increase user growth including hosting pages for celebrity pets, working with pet shelters and pet rescue organizations on pet adoptions and working with the Emergency Pet Location Foundation with Internet based searches for missing pets. The Company also intends to add additional features to its social networking application that will attract new users and encourage existing users to interact on a regular basis. The Company’s prospects must be considered in light of the risks, expenses and difficulties encountered by companies at an early stage of development, particularly given that it operates in a niche market, that it has limited financial resources, and continues to face an uncertain economic environment. Accordingly, the Company may not be successful in addressing such risks and difficulties.

RISK FACTORS

 

Risks Related to Our Business

 

We have experienced a history of losses and have yet to begin generating positive cash flows from operations and, as a result, our auditors have raised substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

 

We do not currently have sufficient cash on hand to meet our financing needs. We currently do not generate sufficient cash from our operations to cover our monthly operating costs. As at December 31, 2011, we had approximately $38,000 of cash on hand after having raised $56,000 through the sale of our common stock. Based upon our current monthly cash burn rate, the cash on hand will last us approximately one month. We have experienced net losses all but one calendar quarter since our inception and as of December 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, had accumulated deficits of $(13,578,570) and $(6,065,008), respectively. We incurred net losses to common stockholders of $(7,513,562) and $(4,055,905) during the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. The report issued by our Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm in connection with the audit of our consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2011 contained a qualification raising a substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our quarterly and annual consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that may result from the outcome of this uncertainty. If we cannot continue as a viable entity, our stockholders may lose all of their investment in us.

 

We are an early stage company, have limited operating history and anticipate losses and negative cash flow.

 

We are an early stage company, and have limited operating history upon which prospective investors may base an evaluation as to our likely performance. Historically we have been offering pet transportation services for a limited period of time and all of our revenue has occurred within the past two years. We recently ceased airline operations and embarked on a new strategy by creating a social media network for pet owners and pet care-givers. No assurances can be given that our business will be successful or that we will ever become profitable. In addition, if we ever do become profitable there can be no assurance that we will remain profitable. Before purchasing our common stock, investors should consider an investment in our common stock in light of the risks, uncertainties and difficulties frequently encountered by early-stage companies in new and rapidly evolving markets such as ours, including those described herein. We may not be able to successfully address any or all of these risks. Failure to adequately address such risks could cause our business to fail which may result in our liquidation.

 

We may have difficulty managing our growth.

 

We anticipate that we will continue to grow in the near future. However, there is no guarantee that we will continue to grow in the near future. Our ability to manage growth effectively will depend on our ability to improve and expand our operations, including our financial and management information systems, and to recruit, train and manage additional marketing, operations and administrative personnel. Our management may not be able to manage growth effectively, or may be unable to recruit and retain personnel needed to meet our needs. If we are unable to manage growth or hire necessary personnel, our business could be materially harmed.

 

We are not currently generating revenues.

 

In April 2012, we announced our social media application called Pawdoodle. We are not currently generating revenues from this application and expect we will need to have between 1 and 1.5 million users before we can start to generate revenues. There can be no assurance that we will be able to generate revenues. If we do generate revenues there can be no assurance that the revenues will be sufficient to cover our costs.

 

We rely on Facebook as a platform for our technology.

 

Facebook is currently the primary distribution and marketing platform for our application. We are subject to Facebook’s standard terms and conditions for application developers, which govern the promotion, distribution and operation of our current and future applications on the Facebook platform. Our business would be harmed if:

 

Facebook discontinues or limits access to its platform by us;

 

9
 

  

Facebook modifies its terms of service or other policies that put restrictions on us, or other application developers, or Facebook change show the personal information of its users is made available to application developers on the Facebook platform or shared by users.

 

Facebook develops its own competitive offerings.

 

We expect to continue to benefit from Facebook’s strong brand recognition and large user base. If Facebook loses its market position or otherwise falls out of favor with Internet users, we would need to identify alternative channels for marketing and promoting our applications, which would consume substantial resources and may not be effective. In addition, Facebook has broad discretion to change its terms of service and other policies with respect to us and other developers, and those changes may be unfavorable to us.

 

We operate in a new and rapidly changing industry, which makes it difficult to evaluate our business and prospects.

 

Social networking applications are a new and rapidly evolving industry. The growth of the social networking industry and the level of demand and market acceptance of our applications are subject to a high degree of uncertainty. Our future operating results will depend on numerous factors affecting the social networking industry, many of which are beyond our control, including but not limited to the following:

 

continued worldwide growth in the adoption and use of Facebook and other social networks;

 

changes in consumer demographics and public tastes and preferences;

 

the growth of personal computer, broadband Internet and mobile device users, and the rate of any such growth; and

 

general economic conditions, particularly economic conditions adversely affecting discretionary consumer spending.

 

We have a new business model and no operating history, which makes it difficult to evaluate our prospects and future financial results and may increase the risk that we will not be successful.

 

Historically we have generated our revenues from our Pet Airways subsidiary. In April 2012, we launched our social media platform Pawdoodle; given that we have very recently adopted this new business model, it is difficult to assess our future prospects. Our business model is based on our ability to continue to attract new users of our application and the ability to generate revenues.

 

We have not generated any revenues from our applications.

 

Since we launched Pawdoodle we have not generated any revenues from these applications. We expect that we will be able to generate revenues from advertising, product placement and other sources in the future; however, there can be assurance that we will be able to generate revenues from these sources or future applications.

 

Any failure or significant interruption in our network could impact our operations and harm our business.

 

Our technology infrastructure is critical to the performance of our applications and to customer satisfaction. Our applications run on a complex distributed system, or what is commonly known as cloud computing. We own, operate and maintain the primary elements of this system, but some elements of this system are operated by third parties that we do not control and which would require significant time to replace. We expect this dependence on third parties to continue. To the extent that our disaster recovery systems are not adequate, or we do not effectively address capacity constraints, upgrade our systems as needed and continually develop our technology and network architecture to accommodate increasing traffic, our business and operating results may suffer. We do not maintain insurance policies covering losses relating to our systems and we do not have business interruption insurance.

 

10
 

  

Security breaches, computer viruses and computer hacking attacks could harm our business and results of operations.

 

Security breaches, computer malware and computer hacking attacks have become more prevalent in our industry. Any security breach caused by hacking, which involves efforts to gain unauthorized access to information or systems, or to cause intentional malfunctions or loss or corruption of data, software, hardware or other computer equipment, and the inadvertent transmission of computer viruses could harm our business, financial condition and operating results.

 

Our growth prospects will suffer if we are unable to continue to develop applications for mobile platforms.

 

Developing applications for mobile platforms is an important component of our strategy. To date we have not completed development of mobile applications so this strategy has a number of uncertainties, including but not limited to:

 

we have limited experience working with wireless carriers, mobile platform providers and other partners whose cooperation we may need in order to be successful;

 

we may encounter difficulty in integrating features for mobile platforms; and

 

we will need to move beyond payment methods provided by social networks and successfully allow for a variety of payment methods and systems based on the mobile platform, geographies and other factors.

 

These and other uncertainties make it difficult to know whether we will succeed in continuing to develop commercially applications for the mobile network. If we do not succeed in doing so, our growth prospects may suffer.

 

An increasing number of individuals are utilizing devices other than personal computers to access the Internet, and versions of our applications developed for these devices might not gain widespread adoption, or may not function as intended.

 

The number of individuals who access the Internet through devices other than a personal computer, such as smart phones, tablets, televisions and set-top box devices, has increased dramatically, and we believe this trend is likely to continue. To expand our business, we will need to support a number of alternative devices and technologies.

 

Failure to protect or enforce our intellectual property rights or the costs involved in such enforcement could harm our business and operating results.

 

We regard the protection of our trade secrets, copyrights, trademarks, trade dress, domain names and other product rights as critical to our success. We strive to protect our intellectual property rights by relying on federal, state and common law rights, as well as contractual restrictions. We enter in to confidentiality and invention assignment agreements with our employees and contractors and confidentiality agreements with parties with whom we conduct business in order to limit access to, and disclosure and use of, our proprietary information. However, these contractual arrangements and the other steps we have taken to protect our intellectual property may not prevent the misappropriation of our proprietary information or deter independent development of similar technologies by others. Litigation may be necessary to enforce our intellectual property rights, protect our trade secrets or determine the validity and scope of proprietary rights claimed by others. Any litigation of this nature, regardless of outcome or merit, could result in substantial costs, adverse publicity or diversion of management and technical resources, any of which could adversely affect our business and operating results. If we fail to maintain, protect and enhance our intellectual property rights, our business and operating results may be harmed.

 

11
 

 

Programming errors or flaws in our applications could harm our reputation or prevent or delay market acceptance of our applications, which would harm our operating results.

 

Our applications may contain errors, bugs, flaws or corrupted data, and these defects may only become apparent after their launch, particularly as we launch new applications and rapidly release new features to existing applications under tight time constraints. We believe that if our customers have a negative experience with our applications, they may be less inclined to continue or resume playing our applications or recommend our applications to other potential customers. Undetected programming errors, game defects and data corruption can disrupt our operations, adversely affect the experience of our customers, any of which could result in legal liability to us or harm our operating results.

 

We process, store and use personal information and other data, which subjects us to governmental regulation and other legal obligations related to privacy, and our actual or perceived failure to comply with such obligations could harm our business.

 

We receive, store and process personal information and other users data, and we enable our customers to share their personal information with each other and with third parties, including on the Internet and mobile platforms. There are numerous federal, state and local laws around the world regarding privacy and the storing, sharing, use, processing, disclosure and protection of personal information and other user data on the Internet and mobile platforms, the scope of which are changing, subject to differing interpretations, and may be inconsistent between countries or conflict with other rules. Any failure or perceived failure by us to comply with our privacy policies, our privacy-related obligations to customers or other third parties, or our privacy-related legal obligations, or any compromise of security that results in the unauthorized release or transfer of personally identifiable information or other data, may result in governmental enforcement actions, litigation or public statements against us by consumer advocacy groups or other sand could cause our customers to lose trust in us, which could have an adverse effect on our business. Additionally, if third parties we work with, such as customers, vendors or developers, violate applicable laws or our policies, such violations may also put our customers’ information at risk and could in turn have an adverse effect on our business.

 

In the area of information security and data protection, many states have passed laws requiring notification to customers when there is a security breach for personal data, such as the 2002 amendment to California’s Information Practices Act, or requiring the adoption of minimum information security standards that are often vaguely defined and difficult to practically implement. The costs of compliance with these laws may increase in the future as a result of changes in interpretation. Furthermore, any failure on our part to comply with these laws may subject us to significant liabilities.

 

Reliance on key personnel.

 

We are dependent on the expertise, experience and continued services of Daniel Weisel, our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, Andrew C. Warner, our President and Chief Financial Officer and Alysa Binder, our Executive Vice-President and Chief Development Officer. The loss of Mr. Weisel, Mr. Warner or Ms. Binder could harm our competitive position and financial performance. Our future success depends, to a significant extent, on the continued services of Mr. Weisel, Mr. Warner and Ms. Binder. Competition for personnel throughout the airline and transportation industry is intense and we may be unable to retain our current management and staff or attract, integrate or retain other highly qualified personnel in the future. If we do not succeed in retaining our current management and our staff or in attracting and motivating new personnel, our business could be materially adversely affected.

In order to grow at the pace expected by management, we will require additional capital to support our long-term growth strategies. If we are unable to obtain additional capital in future years, we may be unable to proceed with our plans.

 

We do not currently have sufficient cash on hand to meet our financing needs. We currently do not generate cash from our operations and can therefore not cover our operating costs. Based upon our current monthly cash burn rate, the cash on hand will last us approximately one month. We will require approximately $2,000,000 of additional working capital to continue our operations during the next 12 months and to support our long-term growth strategy.

 

On June 3, 2011, we completed a private placement transaction pursuant to which we issued and sold 2,253,470 shares of our common stock and a warrant to purchase 20,476,707 shares of our common stock for gross proceeds of $500,000. We also agreed to issue an additional 1,126,735 shares of our common stock as a commitment fee to the investor on August 17, 2011; provided to the extent the issuance of such shares would result in the investor and its affiliates owning or being deemed the beneficial owner of more than 9.99% of the then issued and outstanding common stock (the “Investor Ownership Limit”), then such shares will be held in abeyance (and the investor shall not have the right to, or be deemed to have, beneficial ownership of such shares) until such time, and to the extent, as the investor’s beneficial ownership of such shares would not result in the investor exceeding the Investor Ownership Limit, at which time such shares (and certificates therefor) shall be issued and delivered to the investor and the investor shall then be deemed to have beneficial ownership thereof. The terms of the private placement transaction also enable us to receive up to $5 million in additional funding from the investor through the issuance of our newly created perpetual and non-convertible Series A Preferred Stock at a price per share of $10,000 in one or more tranches commencing on August 17, 2011 at the earliest and continuing until June 3, 2013 (unless sooner terminated) provided that certain conditions are met, including but not limited to, our continued listing or quotation on a trading market, and the continued accuracy and completeness of our representations and warranties contained in the securities purchase agreement. The maximum amount which we may receive in any tranche is equal to the lesser of (i) 20% of the cumulative dollar trading volume of our common stock for the 10 trading-day period immediately prior to the tranche notice date and (ii) $5,000,000 less the aggregate amount of any previously noticed and funded tranches. We can provide no assurance of what additional funding, if any, that we will ultimately receive under the terms of our June 3, 2011 private placement transaction. We will require additional working capital to continue our operations during the next 12 months and to support our long-term growth strategy, so as to enhance our service offerings and benefit from economies of scale. We expect our working capital requirements and the cash flow provided by future operating activities, if any, to vary greatly from quarter to quarter, depending on the volume of business and competition in the markets we serve. We may seek additional funding through one or more credit facilities, if available, or through the sale of debt or additional equity securities. However, the terms of our June 3, 2011 private placement transaction place restrictions on our ability to consummate any such additional financing without the consent of the investor. There is no assurance that the investor would consent to such a transaction or if funding of any type would be available to us, or that it would be available at rates and on terms and conditions that would be financially acceptable and viable to us in the long term. If we are unable to raise any necessary additional financing when needed, under the terms of our June 3, 2011 private placement or otherwise, we may be required to suspend operations, sell assets or enter into a merger or other combination with a third party, any of which could adversely affect the value of our common stock, or render it worthless. If we issue additional debt or equity securities, such securities may enjoy rights, privileges and priorities (including but not limited to coupon rates, conversion rights, rights to fixed or preferential dividends, anti-dilution rights or preference as to the distribution of assets upon a liquidation) superior to those enjoyed by holders of our common stock, thereby diluting the value of our common stock.

 

On December 29, 2011, we completed a private placement with three investors where we issued and sold a total of 280,000 shares of our common stock and a warrant to purchase 280,000 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $0.20, for gross proceeds of $56,000.

On March 2, 2012 the Company issued an 8% convertible debenture, with a principal balance of $47,500, and a maturity date of November 29, 2012.

 

On April 25, 2012 the Company issued an 8% convertible debenture, with a principal balance of $27,500, and a maturity date of January 18, 2013.

 

We are dependent on developing applications and if our technology fails or we are unable to continue to invest in new applications our business may be adversely affected.

 

We are dependent on technology initiatives to enhance customer service and increase the number of users of our applications in order to compete. The performance and reliability of the technology are critical to our ability to attract and retain users and our ability to compete effectively. These initiatives will continue to require significant capital investments in our technology infrastructure. If we are unable to make these investments, our business and operations could be negatively affected.

 

In addition, any internal technology error or failure or large scale external interruption in technology infrastructure we depend on, such as power, telecommunications, or the Internet, may disrupt our technology network. Any individual, sustained or repeated failure of technology could impact our customer service and result in increased costs. Our technology systems and related data may be vulnerable to a variety of sources of interruption due to events beyond our control, including natural disasters, terrorist attacks, telecommunications failures, computer viruses, hackers and other security issues. While we have in place, and continue to invest in, technology security initiatives and disaster recovery plans, these measures may not be adequate or implemented properly to prevent a business disruption and its adverse financial consequences to our business.

 

We do not carry business interruption or other insurance, so we have to bear losses ourselves.

 

We are subject to risk inherent to our business, including equipment failure, theft, natural disasters, industrial accidents, labor disturbances, business interruptions, property damage, product liability, personal injury and death. We do not carry any business interruption insurance or third-party liability insurance or other insurance to cover risks associated with our business. As a result, if we suffer losses, damages or liabilities, including those caused by natural disasters or other events beyond our control and we are unable to make a claim again a third party, we will be required to bear all such losses from our own funds, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

 

Our quarterly operating results are likely to fluctuate, which may affect our stock price.

 

Our quarterly revenues, expenses, operating results and gross profit margins will vary from quarter to quarter, and may vary significantly. As a result, our operating results may fall below the expectations of third parties including securities analysts and investors, in some quarters, which could result in a decrease in the market price of our common shares. The reasons our quarterly results may fluctuate include:

 

changes in the general competitive and economic conditions; and

 

the introduction of new services by us.

 

Period-to-period comparisons of our operating results should not be relied on as indications of future performance.

 

Risk Related to Financing Our Operations

 

Without obtaining adequate capital funding, we may not be able to continue as a going concern.

 

The reports of our independent registered public accounting firms for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010 contained an explanatory paragraph to reflect its significant doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern as a result of our history of losses and our liquidity position. If we are unable to obtain adequate capital funding in the future, we may not be able to continue as a going concern, which would have an adverse effect on our business and operations, and the value of your investment in us may materially decline. Our financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, which contemplate that we will continue to operate as a going concern. Our financial statements do not contain any adjustments that might result if we are unable to continue as a going concern. Substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern may have created, or may create, negative reactions to the price of the common shares of our stock and we may have a more difficult time obtaining financing.

 

14
 

  

We have historically incurred losses and we expect these losses will continue in the future.

 

For the fiscal years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, we sustained net losses before income taxes of $(7,511,862) and $(4,055,905), respectively, and our accumulated deficits as of December 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, were $(13,578,570) and $(6,065,008), respectively. Future losses are likely to occur. Accordingly, we may experience significant liquidity and cash flow problems and additional operating losses if we are not able to raise additional capital as needed and on acceptable terms and, in such event, our operations may be reduced or curtailed.

 

If we are unable to raise additional capital to finance operations, our business operations will be curtailed.

 

Our operations have relied almost entirely on funding from a combination of borrowings from and sales of common and warrants to third parties. We will need to raise additional capital to fund our anticipated operating expenses and future expansion. Among other things, financing will be required to cover our operating and capital costs. The sale of our stock to raise capital may cause dilution to our existing stockholders. Our inability to obtain adequate financing, whether from current investors or from other third parties, would likely result in the need to reduce or curtail business operations. Any of these events would be materially harmful to our business and may result in a loss of your investment.

 

The issuance of shares upon conversion of convertible debentures, exercise of outstanding warrants and in lieu of payments of interest on convertible debentures may cause immediate and substantial dilution to our existing stockholders.

 

If the price per share of our common stock at the time of conversion of our debentures, exercise of any warrants or issuance of shares in lieu of payments of interest on our convertible debentures is in excess of the conversion or exercise prices of these securities, the conversion or exercise of these securities would have a dilutive effect on our common stock. As of the date of this prospectus, an aggregate of 29,778,809 shares of our common stock are issuable upon conversion and/or exercise of outstanding convertible debentures and warrants consisting of: (i) outstanding 8% convertible debentures which are convertible into an aggregate of 950,000 shares of our common stock, (ii) outstanding 14% convertible debentures which are convertible into an aggregate of 875,000 shares of common stock, (iii) warrants to purchase an aggregate of 1,000,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $1.00 per share expiring August 13, 2015, (iv) warrants to purchase an aggregate of 875,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $0.5 per share expiring August 14, 2015 (v) 104,940 shares of common stock issuable in lieu of interest on 8% convertible debentures, (vi) 169,483 shares of common stock issuable in lieu of interest on 14% convertible debentures, (vii) warrants to purchase an aggregate of 20,476,707 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $1.02 per share expiring on June 3, 2016, (viii) warrants to purchase an aggregate of 458,678 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $0.20 per share expiring on June 3, 2016,(ix) warrants to purchase an aggregate of 280,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $0.20 per share expiring on December 29, 2016, (x) warrants to purchase an aggregate of 252,499 shares of common stock at en exercise price of $0.14 per share expiring February 23, 2017 and (xi) warrants to purchase an aggregate of 4,336,503 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $0.14 per share expiring March 2, 2017.

 

Following the conversion of our outstanding convertible debentures and exercise of outstanding warrants, our issued and outstanding common stock would increase to 91,431,851 shares, which represents an increase of approximately 48% over our 61,653,041 shares issued and outstanding shares as of the date of this prospectus.

 

15
 

  

We are not permitted to include any securities in any registration statement other than those issued or issuable to Socius until such time as all of the securities issued or issuable to Socius are covered by one or more effective registration statements. This may significantly limit our ability to raise capital through future equity offerings.

 

The Rights Agreement prohibits us from including any securities other than those issued or issuable to Socius on any registration statement without the prior written consent of Socius until such time as all of the securities issued or issuable to Socius are covered by one or more effective registration statements. The filing of this registration statement constitutes a breach of the Rights Agreement.

 

Risks Related to the Market for Our Stock Generally

 

Our common stock is quoted on the OTC QB, which may have an unfavorable impact on our stock price and liquidity.

 

Our common stock is currently quoted on the OTC QB. The OTC QB market tier helps investors identify companies that are current in their reporting obligations with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). OTC QB securities are quoted on OTC Markets Group's quotation and trading system. The OTC QB is a significantly more limited market than established trading markets such as the New York Stock Exchange or NASDAQ. The quotation of our shares on the OTC QB may result in a less liquid market available for existing and potential stockholders to trade shares of our common stock, could depress the trading price of our common stock and could have a long-term adverse impact on our ability to raise capital in the future. We plan to list our common stock with NASDAQ or New York Stock Exchange or other exchanges as soon as practicable. However, we cannot assure you that we will be able to meet the initial listing standards of any stock exchange, or that we will be able to maintain any such listing.

 

We are subject to penny stock regulations and restrictions and you may have difficulty selling shares of our common stock.

 

The SEC has adopted regulations which generally define so-called “penny stocks” to be an equity security that has a market price less than $5.00 per share or an exercise price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exemptions. Our common stock is considered to be a “penny stock” and is subject to Rule 15g-9 under the Exchange Act, or the Penny Stock Rule. This rule imposes additional sales practice requirements on broker-dealers that sell such securities to persons other than established customers and “accredited investors”, as such term is defined in the Securities Act. For transactions covered by Penny Stock Rule, a broker-dealer must make a special suitability determination for the purchaser and have received the purchaser's written consent to the transaction prior to sale. As a result, this rule may affect the ability of broker-dealers to sell our securities and may affect the ability of purchasers to sell any of our securities in the secondary market, thus possibly making it more difficult for us to raise additional capital.

 

For any transaction involving a penny stock, unless exempt, the rules require delivery, prior to any transaction in penny stock, of a disclosure schedule required by the SEC relating to the penny stock market. Disclosure is also required to be made about sales commissions payable to both the broker-dealer and the registered representative and current quotations for the securities. Finally, monthly statements are required to be sent disclosing recent price information for the penny stock held in the account and information on the limited market in penny stock.

 

There can be no assurance that our common stock will qualify for exemption from the Penny Stock Rule within the foreseeable future, if ever. In any event, even if our common stock were exempt from the Penny Stock Rule, we would remain subject to Section 15(b)(6) of the Exchange Act, which gives the SEC the authority to restrict any person from participating in a distribution of penny stock, if the SEC finds that such a restriction would be in the public interest.

 

Our Series A Preferred Stock has a liquidation preference of $10,000 per share of Series A Preferred Stock, plus any accrued but unpaid dividends with respect to such shares of Series A Preferred Stock.

 

Upon any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of our Company after payment or provision for payment of our debts and other liabilities and any liquidation preferences of senior securities, before any distribution or payment may be made to the holders of any junior securities, including our common stock, the holders of our Series A Preferred Stock shall be entitled to a liquidation preference in the amount of $10,000 per share of Series A Preferred Stock plus any accrued but unpaid dividends. Dividends on our Series A Preferred Stock accrue at a rate of 10% per annum from the date of issuance and are payable upon redemption of the Series A Preferred Stock. If we were liquidated, the ability of our common stockholders to receive any distribution of payment would be significantly limited if there were then a significant amount of shares of Series A Preferred Stock outstanding.

 

16
 

  

We have never paid dividends on our common stock and we do not anticipate paying dividends in the foreseeable future.

 

We have never paid cash dividends on our common stock. So long as any shares of our Series A Preferred Stock are outstanding, no dividends or other distributions may be paid, declared or set apart with respect to any junior securities, including our common stock, other than dividends or other distributions payable on our common stock solely in the form of additional shares of common stock. Accordingly, investors must be prepared to rely on sales of their common stock after price appreciation to earn an investment return, which may never occur. Investors seeking cash dividends should not purchase our common stock.

 

Our controlling stockholders hold a significant percentage of our outstanding voting securities, which could hinder our ability to engage in significant corporate transactions without their approval.

 

Mr. Dan Wiesel and Ms. Alysa Binder are the beneficial owners of approximately 28.7% of our outstanding voting securities as of the date of this prospectus. As a result, they possess significant influence, giving them the ability, among other things, to elect members of our board of directors and to authorize or prevent proposed significant corporate transactions. Their ownership and control may also have the effect of delaying or preventing a future change in control, impeding a merger, consolidation, takeover or other business combination or discourage a potential acquirer from making a tender offer. The interests of these two stockholders may not always coincide with the interests of other stockholders, and they may act in a manner that advances their best interests and not necessarily those of other stockholders, which may affect the market price for our securities.

 

CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS AND OTHER INFORMATION CONTAINED IN THIS PROSPECTUS

 

This prospectus contains some forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements give our current expectations or forecasts of future events.

The Selling Stockholders named in this prospectus are offering up to 6,170,950 shares through this prospectus that the Selling Stockholders have acquired pursuant to the Plan.

 

If, subsequent to the date of this reoffer prospectus, we grant any further awards to any eligible participants who are affiliates of our company (as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act), Instruction C of Form S-8 requires that we supplement this reoffer prospectus with the names of such affiliates and the amounts of securities to be reoffered by them as Selling Stockholders.

 

The following table provides, as of the date of this prospectus, information regarding the beneficial ownership of our common shares held by each of the Selling Stockholders, including:

 

1.the number of common shares owned by each selling stockholder prior to this offering;

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

 

Timing of Sales

 

Under our 2012 Stock Incentive Plan, we are authorized to issue up to 10,000,000 shares of our common stock.

 

Subject to the foregoing, the Selling Stockholders may offer and sell the shares covered by this prospectus at various times. The Selling Stockholders will act independently of our company in making decisions with respect to the timing, manner and size of each sale.

 

No Known Agreements to Resell the Shares

 

To our knowledge, no selling stockholder has any agreement or understanding, directly or indirectly, with any person to resell the common shares covered by this prospectus.

 

Offering Price

 

The sales price offered by the Selling Stockholders to the public may be:

 

1.the market price prevailing at the time of sale;
2.a price related to such prevailing market price; or
3.such other price as the Selling Stockholders determine from time to time.

 

19
 

  

Manner of Sale

 

The Common Stock may be sold by means of one or more of the following methods:

 

1.a block trade in which the broker-dealer so engaged will attempt to sell the common shares as agent, but may position and resell a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction;
2.Purchases by a broker-dealer as principal and resale by that broker-dealer for its account pursuant to this prospectus;
3.ordinary brokerage transactions in which the broker solicits purchasers;
4.through options, swaps or derivatives;
5.in transactions to cover short sales;
6.privately negotiated transactions; or
7.in a combination of any of the above methods.

 

The Selling Stockholders may sell their common shares directly to purchasers or may use brokers, dealers, underwriters or agents to sell their common shares. Brokers or dealers engaged by the Selling Stockholders may arrange for other brokers or dealers to participate. Brokers or dealers may receive commissions, discounts or concessions from the Selling Stockholders, or, if any such broker-dealer acts as agent for the purchaser of common shares, from the purchaser in amounts to be negotiated immediately prior to the sale. The compensation received by brokers or dealers may, but is not expected to, exceed that which is customary for the types of transactions involved.

 

Broker-dealers may agree with a selling stockholder to sell a specified number of common shares at a stipulated price per common share, and, to the extent the broker-dealer is unable to do so acting as agent for a selling stockholder, to purchase as principal any unsold common shares at the price required to fulfill the broker-dealer commitment to the selling stockholder.

 

Broker-dealers who acquire common shares as principal may thereafter resell the common shares from time to time in transactions, which may involve block transactions and sales to and through other broker-dealers, including transactions of the nature described above, in the over-the-counter market or otherwise at prices and on terms then prevailing at the time of sale, at prices then related to the then-current market price or in negotiated transactions. In connection with resales of the common shares, broker-dealers may pay to or receive from the purchasers of shares commissions as described above.

 

If our Selling Stockholders enter into arrangements with brokers or dealers, as described above, we are obligated to file a post-effective amendment to this registration statement disclosing such arrangements, including the names of any broker-dealers acting as underwriters.

 

The Selling Stockholders and any broker-dealers or agents that participate with the Selling Stockholders in the sale of the common shares may be deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of the Securities Act. In that event, any commissions received by broker-dealers or agents and any profit on the resale of the common shares purchased by them may be deemed to be underwriting commissions or discounts under the Securities Act.

 

Sales Pursuant to Rule 144

 

Any Common Stock covered by this prospectus which qualify for sale pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act may be sold under Rule 144 rather than pursuant to this prospectus.

 

Accordingly, during such times as a selling stockholder may be deemed to be engaged in a distribution of the Common Stock, and therefore be considered to be an underwriter, the selling stockholder must comply with applicable law and, among other things:

 

1.may not engage in any stabilization activities in connection with our Common Stock;
2.may not cover short sales by purchasing shares while the distribution is taking place; and
3.may not bid for or purchase any of our securities or attempt to induce any person to purchase any of our securities other than as permitted under the Exchange Act.

 

In addition, we will make copies of this prospectus available to the Selling Stockholders for the purpose of satisfying the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act.

 

20
 

  

State Securities Laws

 

Under the securities laws of some states, the common shares may be sold in such states only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers. In addition, in some states the common shares may not be sold unless the shares have been registered or qualified for sale in the state or an exemption from registration or qualification is available and is complied with.

 

Expenses of Registration

 

We are bearing all costs relating to the registration of the common stock. These expenses are estimated to include, but not limited to, legal, accounting, printing and mailing fees. The Selling Stockholders, however, will pay any commissions or other fees payable to brokers or dealers in connection with any sale of the common stock.

 

LEGAL MATTERS

DISCLOSURE OF COMMISSION POSITION ON INDEMNIFICATION

FOR SECURITIES ACT LIABILITIES

 

Our Articles of Incorporation, as amended, provide to the fullest extent permitted by Illinois law, our directors or officers shall not be personally liable to us or our shareholders for damages for breach of such director’s or officer’s fiduciary duty. The effect of this provision of our Articles of Incorporation, as amended, is to eliminate our rights and our shareholders (through shareholders’ derivative suits on behalf of our company) to recover damages against a director or officer for breach of the fiduciary duty of care as a director or officer (including breaches resulting from negligent or grossly negligent behavior), except under certain situations defined by statute. We believe that the indemnification provisions in our Articles of Incorporation, as amended, are necessary to attract and retain qualified persons as directors and officers.

 

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to our directors, officers or person controlling us, we have been informed that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the act and is therefore unenforceable.

Item 9. Undertakings.

 

(a)      The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:

 

(1)      To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement:

 

(i)to include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933;

 

(ii)to reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the Registration Statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the Registration Statement;

 

(iii)to include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the Registration Statement or any material change to such information in the Registration Statement.

 

Provided, however, that paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) do not apply if this Registration Statement is on Form S-8, and the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the Registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act of 1934 that are incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement.

 

(2)      That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

 

(3)      To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.

 

25
 

  

(b)        The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the Registrant’s annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan’s annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that is incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

 

(c)        Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933, and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question of whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

3.Eligibility.

 

(a)General: The persons who shall be eligible to receive Grants shall be directors, officers, employees or consultants to the Company. The term consultant shall mean any person, other than an employee, who is engaged by the Company to render services and is compensated for such services. An Optionee may hold more than one Option. Any issuance of a Grant to an officer or director of the Company subsequent to the first registration of any of the securities of the Company under the Exchange Act shall comply with the requirements of Rule 16b-3.

 

(b)Incentive Stock Options: Incentive Stock Options may only be issued to employees of the Company. Incentive Stock Options may be granted to officers or directors, provided they are also employees of the Company. Payment of a director's fee shall not be sufficient to constitute employment by the Company.
   
  The Company shall not grant an Incentive Stock Option under the Plan to any employee if such Grant would result in such employee holding the right to exercise for the first time in any one calendar year, under all Incentive Stock Options granted under the Plan or any other plan maintained by the Company, with respect to shares of Stock having an aggregate fair market value, determined as of the date the Option is granted, in excess of $100,000. Should it be determined that an Incentive Stock Option granted under the Plan exceeds such maximum for any reason other than a failure in good faith to value the Stock subject to such option, the excess portion of such option shall be considered a Nonstatutory Option. To the extent the employee holds two (2) or more such Options which become exercisable for the first time in the same calendar year, the foregoing limitation on the exercisability of such Option as Incentive Stock Options under the Federal tax laws shall be applied on the basis of the order in which such Options are granted. If, for any reason, an entire Option does not qualify as an Incentive Stock Option by reason of exceeding such maximum, such Option shall be considered a Nonstatutory Option. 

 

(c)Nonstatutory Option: The provisions of the foregoing Section 3(b) shall not apply to any Option designated as a “Nonstatutory Option” or which sets forth the intention of the parties that the Option be a Nonstatutory Option.

 

(d)Stock Awards and Restricted Stock Purchase Offers: The provisions of this Section 3 shall not apply to any Stock Award or Restricted Stock Purchase Offer under the Plan.

 

4.Stock.

 

(a)Authorized Stock: Stock subject to Grants may be either unissued or reacquired Stock.

 

(b)Number of Shares: Subject to adjustment as provided in Section 5(i) of the Plan, the total number of shares of Stock which may be purchased or granted directly by Options, Stock Awards or Restricted Stock Purchase Offers, or purchased indirectly through exercise of Options granted under the Plan shall not exceed ten million (10,000,000). If any Grant shall for any reason terminate or expire, any shares allocated thereto but remaining unpurchased upon such expiration or termination shall again be available for Grants with respect thereto under the Plan as though no Grant had previously occurred with respect to such shares. Any shares of Stock issued pursuant to a Grant and repurchased pursuant to the terms thereof shall be available for future Grants as though not previously covered by a Grant.

 

- 3 -
 

  

(c)Reservation of Shares: The Company shall reserve and keep available at all times during the term of the Plan such number of shares as shall be sufficient to satisfy the requirements of the Plan. If, after reasonable efforts, which efforts shall not include the registration of the Plan or Grants under the Securities Act, the Company is unable to obtain authority from any applicable regulatory body, which authorization is deemed necessary by legal counsel for the Company for the lawful issuance of shares hereunder, the Company shall be relieved of any liability with respect to its failure to issue and sell the shares for which such requisite authority was so deemed necessary unless and until such authority is obtained.

 

(d)Application of Funds: The proceeds received by the Company from the sale of Stock pursuant to the exercise of Options or rights will be used for general corporate purposes.

 

(e)No Obligation to Exercise: The issuance of a Grant shall impose no obligation upon the Participant to exercise any rights under such Grant.

 

5.Terms and Conditions of Options.
   
  Options granted hereunder shall be evidenced by agreements between the Company and the respective Optionees, in such form and substance as the Board or Committee shall from time to time approve. Option agreements need not be identical, and in each case may include such provisions as the Board or Committee may determine, but all such agreements shall be subject to and limited by the following terms and conditions: 

 

(a)Number of Shares: Each Option shall state the number of shares to which it pertains.

 

(b)Exercise Price: Each Incentive Stock Option shall state the exercise price, which shall be determined as follows:

 

(i)Any Incentive Stock Option granted to a person who at the time the Option is granted owns (or is deemed to own pursuant to Section 424(d) of the Code) stock possessing more than ten percent (10%) of the total combined voting power or value of all classes of stock of the Company (“Ten Percent Holder”) shall have an exercise price of no less than 110% of the Fair Market Value of the Stock as of the date of grant; and

 

(ii)Incentive Stock Options granted to a person who at the time the Option is granted is not a Ten Percent Holder shall have an exercise price of no less than 100% of the Fair Market Value of the Stock as of the date of grant.
   
  For the purposes of this Section 5(b), the Fair Market Value shall be as determined by the Board in good faith, which determination shall be conclusive and binding; provided however, that if there is a public market for such Stock, the Fair Market Value per share shall be the average of the bid and asked prices (or the closing price if such stock is listed on the NASDAQ Global Market or NASDAQ Capital Market) on the date of grant of the Option, or if listed on a stock exchange, the closing price on such exchange on such date of grant. 
   
 The exercise price of each Nonstatutory Stock Option shall be determined at the discretion of the Board of Directors of the Corporation. 

 

(c)Medium and Time of Payment: The exercise price shall become immediately due upon exercise of the Option and shall be paid in cash or check made payable to the Company. Should the Company's outstanding Stock be registered under Section 12(g) of the Exchange Act at the time the Option is exercised, then the exercise price may also be paid as follows:

 

(i)in shares of Stock held by the Optionee for the requisite period necessary to avoid a charge to the Company's earnings for financial reporting purposes and valued at Fair Market Value on the exercise date, or

 

- 4 -
 

 

 

(ii)through a special sale and remittance procedure pursuant to which the Optionee shall concurrently provide irrevocable written instructions (a) to a Company designated brokerage firm to effect the immediate sale of the purchased shares and remit to the Company, out of the sale proceeds available on the settlement date, sufficient funds to cover the aggregate exercise price payable for the purchased shares plus all applicable Federal, state and local income and employment taxes required to be withheld by the Company by reason of such purchase and (b) to the Company to deliver the certificates for the purchased shares directly to such brokerage firm in order to complete the sale transaction.

 

At the discretion of the Board, exercisable either at the time of Option grant or of Option exercise, the exercise price may also be paid (i) by Optionee's delivery of a promissory note in form and substance satisfactory to the Company and permissible under applicable securities rules and bearing interest at a rate determined by the Board in its sole discretion, but in no event less than the minimum rate of interest required to avoid the imputation of compensation income to the Optionee under the Federal tax laws, or (ii) in such other form of consideration permitted by the Illinois Business Corporation Act of 1983 as may be acceptable to the Board.

 

(d)Term and Exercise of Options: Any Option granted to an employee of the Company shall become exercisable over a period of no longer than ten (10) years. In no event shall any Option be exercisable after the expiration of ten (10) years from the date it is granted, and no Incentive Stock Option granted to a Ten Percent Holder shall, by its terms, be exercisable after the expiration of ten (10) years from the date of the Option. Unless otherwise specified by the Board or the Committee in the resolution authorizing such Option, the date of grant of an Option shall be deemed to be the date upon which the Board or the Committee authorizes the granting of such Option.
   
  Each Option shall be exercisable to the nearest whole share, in installments or otherwise, as the respective Option agreements may provide. During the lifetime of an Optionee, the Option shall be exercisable only by the Optionee and shall not be assignable or transferable by the Optionee, and no other person shall acquire any rights therein. To the extent not exercised, installments (if more than one) shall accumulate, but shall be exercisable, in whole or in part, only during the period for exercise as stated in the Option agreement, whether or not other installments are then exercisable. 

  

(e)Termination of Status as Employee, Consultant or Director: If Optionee's status as an employee shall terminate for any reason other than Optionee's disability or death, then Optionee (or if the Optionee shall die after such termination, but prior to exercise, Optionee's personal representative or the person entitled to succeed to the Option) shall have the right to exercise the portions of any of Optionee's Incentive Stock Options which were exercisable as of the date of such termination, in whole or in part, within 90 days after such termination (or, in the event of “termination for good cause” as that term is defined in Illinois case law related thereto, or by the terms of the Plan or the Option Agreement or an employment agreement, the Option shall automatically terminate as of the termination of employment as to all shares covered by the Option).

 

With respect to Nonstatutory Options granted to employees, directors or consultants, the Board may specify such period for exercise, not less than 90 days (except that in the case of “termination for cause” or removal of a director), the Option shall automatically terminate as of the termination of employment or services as to shares covered by the Option, following termination of employment or services as the Board deems reasonable and appropriate. The Option may be exercised only with respect to installments that the Optionee could have exercised at the date of termination of employment or services. Nothing contained herein or in any Option granted pursuant hereto shall be construed to affect or restrict in any way the right of the Company to terminate the employment or services of an Optionee with or without cause.

 

(f)Disability of Optionee: If an Optionee is disabled (within the meaning of Section 22(e)(3) of the Code) at the time of termination, the ninety(90) day period set forth in Section 5(e) shall be a period, as determined by the Board and set forth in the Option, of not less than six months nor more than one year after such termination.

(g)Death of Optionee: If an Optionee dies while employed by, engaged as a consultant to, or serving as a Director of the Company, the portion of such Optionee's Option which was exercisable at the date of death may be exercised, in whole or in part, by the estate of the decedent or by a person succeeding to the right to exercise such Option at any time within (i) a period, as determined by the Board and set forth in the Option, of not less than six (6) months nor more than one (1) year after Optionee's death, which period shall not be more, in the case of a Nonstatutory Option, than the period for exercise following termination of employment or services, or (ii) during the remaining term of the Option, whichever is the lesser. The Option may be so exercised only with respect to installments exercisable at the time of Optionee's death and not previously exercised by the Optionee.

 

(h)Nontransferability of Option: No Option shall be transferable by the Optionee, except by will or by the laws of descent and distribution.

 

(i)Recapitalization: Subject to any required action of shareholders, the number of shares of Stock covered by each outstanding Option, and the exercise price per share thereof set forth in each such Option, shall be proportionately adjusted for any increase or decrease in the number of issued shares of Stock of the Company resulting from a stock split, stock dividend, combination, subdivision or reclassification of shares, or the payment of a stock dividend, or any other increase or decrease in the number of such shares affected without receipt of consideration by the Company; provided, however, the conversion of any convertible securities of the Company shall not be deemed to have been “effected without receipt of consideration” by the Company.
   
  In the event of a proposed dissolution or liquidation of the Company, a merger or consolidation in which the Company is not the surviving entity, or a sale of all or substantially all of the assets or capital stock of the Company (collectively, a “Reorganization”), unless otherwise provided by the Board, this Option shall terminate immediately prior to such date as is determined by the Board, which date shall be no later than the consummation of such Reorganization. In such event, if the entity which shall be the surviving entity does not tender to Optionee an offer, for which it has no obligation to do so, to substitute for any unexercised Option a stock option or capital stock of such surviving entity, as applicable, which on an equitable basis shall provide the Optionee with substantially the same economic benefit as such unexercised Option, then the Board may grant to such Optionee, in its sole and absolute discretion and without obligation, the right for a period commencing thirty (30) days prior to and ending immediately prior to the date determined by the Board pursuant hereto for termination of the Option or during the remaining term of the Option, whichever is the lesser, to exercise any unexpired Option or Options without regard to the installment provisions of Paragraph 6(d) of the Plan; provided, that any such right granted shall be granted to all Optionees not receiving an offer to receive substitute options on a consistent basis, and provided further, that any such exercise shall be subject to the consummation of such Reorganization. 

  

Subject to any required action of shareholders, if the Company shall be the surviving entity in any merger or consolidation, each outstanding Option thereafter shall pertain to and apply to the securities to which a holder of shares of Stock equal to the shares subject to the Option would have been entitled by reason of such merger or consolidation.

 

In the event of a change in the Stock of the Company as presently constituted, which is limited to a change of all of its authorized shares without par value into the same number of shares with a par value, the shares resulting from any such change shall be deemed to be the Stock within the meaning of the Plan.

 

To the extent that the foregoing adjustments relate to stock or securities of the Company, such adjustments shall be made by the Board, whose determination in that respect shall be final, binding and conclusive. Except as expressly provided in this Section 5(i), the Optionee shall have no rights by reason of any subdivision or consolidation of shares of stock of any class or the payment of any stock dividend or any other increase or decrease in the number of shares of stock of any class, and the number or price of shares of Stock subject to any Option shall not be affected by, and no adjustment shall be made by reason of, any dissolution, liquidation, merger, consolidation or sale of assets or capital stock, or any issue by the Company of shares of stock of any class or securities convertible into shares of stock of any class.

 

- 6 -
 

  

The Grant of an Option pursuant to the Plan shall not affect in any way the right or power of the Company to make any adjustments, reclassifications, reorganizations or changes in its capital or business structure or to merge, consolidate, dissolve, or liquidate or to sell or transfer all or any part of its business or assets.

 

(j)Rights as a Shareholder: An Optionee shall have no rights as a shareholder with respect to any shares covered by an Option until the effective date of the issuance of the shares following exercise of such Option by Optionee. No adjustment shall be made for dividends (ordinary or extraordinary, whether in cash, securities or other property) or distributions or other rights for which the record date is prior to the date such stock certificate is issued, except as expressly provided in Section 5(i) hereof.

 

(k)Modification, Acceleration, Extension, and Renewal of Options: Subject to the terms and conditions and within the limitations of the Plan, the Board may modify an Option, or, once an Option is exercisable, accelerate the rate at which it may be exercised, and may extend or renew outstanding Options granted under the Plan or accept the surrender of outstanding Options (to the extent not theretofore exercised) and authorize the granting of new Options in substitution for such Options, provided such action is permissible under Section 422 of the Code and applicable state securities laws. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 5(k), however, no modification of an Option shall, without the consent of the Optionee, alter to the Optionee's detriment or impair any rights or obligations under any Option theretofore granted under the Plan.

 

(l)Exercise Before Exercise Date: At the discretion of the Board, the Option may, but need not, include a provision whereby the Optionee may elect to exercise all or any portion of the Option prior to the stated exercise date of the Option or any installment thereof. Any shares so purchased prior to the stated exercise date shall be subject to repurchase by the Company upon termination of Optionee's employment as contemplated by Section 5(n) hereof prior to the exercise date stated in the Option and such other restrictions and conditions as the Board or Committee may deem advisable.

 

(m)Other Provisions: The Option agreements authorized under the Plan shall contain such other provisions, including, without limitation, restrictions upon the exercise of the Options, as the Board or the Committee shall deem advisable. Shares shall not be issued pursuant to the exercise of an Option, if the exercise of such Option or the issuance of shares thereunder would violate, in the opinion of legal counsel for the Company, the provisions of any applicable law or the rules or regulations of any applicable governmental or administrative agency or body, such as the Code, the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, applicable state securities laws, the corporate law of the state of Illinois, and the rules promulgated under the foregoing or the rules and regulations of any exchange upon which the shares of the Company are listed. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the exercise of each Option shall be subject to the condition that if at any time the Company shall determine that (i) the satisfaction of withholding tax or other similar liabilities, or (ii) the listing, registration or qualification of any shares covered by such exercise upon any securities exchange or under any state or federal law, or (iii) the consent or approval of any regulatory body, or (iv) the perfection of any exemption from any such withholding, listing, registration, qualification, consent or approval is necessary or desirable in connection with such exercise or the issuance of shares thereunder, then in any such event, such exercise shall not be effective unless such withholding, listing registration, qualification, consent, approval or exemption shall have been effected, obtained or perfected free of any conditions not acceptable to the Company.

 

(n)Repurchase Agreement: The Board may, in its discretion, require as a condition to the Grant of an Option hereunder, that an Optionee execute an agreement with the Company, in form and substance satisfactory to the Board in its discretion (“Repurchase Agreement”), (i) restricting the Optionee's right to transfer shares purchased under such Option without first offering such shares to the Company or another shareholder of the Company upon the same terms and conditions as provided therein; and (ii) providing that upon termination of Optionee's employment with the Company, for any reason, the Company (or another shareholder of the Company, as provided in the Repurchase Agreement) shall have the right at its discretion (or the discretion of such other shareholders) to purchase and/or redeem all such shares owned by the Optionee on the date of termination of his or her employment at a price equal to: (A) the fair value of such shares as of such date of termination; or (B) if such repurchase right lapses at 20% of the number of shares per year, the original purchase price of such shares, and upon terms of payment permissible under the applicable state securities laws; provided that in the case of Options or Stock Awards granted to officers, directors, consultants or affiliates of the Company, such repurchase provisions may be subject to additional or greater restrictions as determined by the Board or Committee.

6.Stock Awards and Restricted Stock Purchase Offers.

 

(a)Types of Grants.

 

(i)Stock Award. All or part of any Stock Award under the Plan may be subject to conditions established by the Board or the Committee, and set forth in the Stock Award Agreement, which may include, but are not limited to, continuous service with the Company, achievement of specific business objectives, increases in specified indices, attaining growth rates and other comparable measurements of Company performance. Such Awards may be based on Fair Market Value or other specified valuation.

 

(ii)Restricted Stock Purchase Offer. A Grant of a Restricted Stock Purchase Offer under the Plan shall be subject to such (i) vesting contingencies related to the Participant's continued association with the Company for a specified time and (ii) other specified conditions as the Board or Committee shall determine, in their sole discretion, consistent with the provisions of the Plan.

 

(b)Conditions and Restrictions. Shares of Stock which Participants may receive as a Stock Award under a Stock Award Agreement or Restricted Stock Purchase Offer under a Restricted Stock Purchase Offer may include such restrictions as the Board or Committee, as applicable, shall determine, including restrictions on transfer, repurchase rights, right of first refusal, and forfeiture provisions. When transfer of Stock is so restricted or subject to forfeiture provisions it is referred to as “Restricted Stock.” Further, with Board or Committee approval, Stock Awards or Restricted Stock Purchase Offers may be deferred, either in the form of installments or a future lump sum distribution. The Board or Committee may permit selected Participants to elect to defer distributions of Stock Awards or Restricted Stock Purchase Offers in accordance with procedures established by the Board or Committee to assure that such deferrals comply with applicable requirements of the Code including, at the choice of Participants, the capability to make further deferrals for distribution after retirement. Any deferred distribution, whether elected by the Participant or specified by the Stock Award Agreement, Restricted Stock Purchase Offers or by the Board or Committee, may require the payment be forfeited in accordance with the provisions of Section 6(c). Dividends or dividend equivalent rights may be extended to and made part of any Stock Award or Restricted Stock Purchase Offers denominated in Stock or units of Stock, subject to such terms, conditions and restrictions as the Board or Committee may establish.

 

(c)Cancellation and Rescission of Grants. Unless the Stock Award Agreement or Restricted Stock Purchase Offer specifies otherwise, the Board or Committee, as applicable, may cancel any unexpired, unpaid, or deferred Grants at any time if the Participant is not in compliance with all other applicable provisions of the Stock Award Agreement or Restricted Stock Purchase Offer, the Plan and with the following conditions:

 

- 8 -
 

  

(i)A Participant shall not render services for any organization or engage directly or indirectly in any business which, in the judgment of the chief executive officer of the Company or other senior officer designated by the Board or Committee, is or becomes competitive with the Company, or which organization or business, or the rendering of services to such organization or business, is or becomes otherwise prejudicial to or in conflict with the interests of the Company. For Participants whose employment has terminated, the judgment of the chief executive officer shall be based on the Participant's position and responsibilities while employed by the Company, the Participant's post-employment responsibilities and position with the other organization or business, the extent of past, current and potential competition or conflict between the Company and the other organization or business, the effect on the Company's customers, suppliers and competitors and such other considerations as are deemed relevant given the applicable facts and circumstances. A Participant who has retired shall be free, however, to purchase as an investment or otherwise, stock or other securities of such organization or business so long as they are listed upon a recognized securities exchange or traded over-the-counter, and such investment does not represent a substantial investment to the Participant or a greater than ten percent (10%) equity interest in the organization or business.

 

(ii)A Participant shall not, without prior written authorization from the Company, disclose to anyone outside the Company, or use in other than the Company's business, any confidential information or material, as defined in the Company's Proprietary Information and Invention Agreement or similar agreement regarding confidential information and intellectual property, relating to the business of the Company, acquired by the Participant either during or after employment with the Company.

 

(iii)A Participant shall disclose promptly and assign to the Company all right, title and interest in any invention or idea, patentable or not, made or conceived by the Participant during employment by the Company, relating in any manner to the actual or anticipated business, research or development work of the Company and shall do anything reasonably necessary to enable the Company to secure a patent where appropriate in the United States and in foreign countries.

 

(iv)Upon exercise, payment or delivery pursuant to a Grant, the Participant shall certify on a form acceptable to the Committee that he or she is in compliance with the terms and conditions of the Plan. Failure to comply with all of the provisions of this Section 6(c) prior to, or during the six months after, any exercise, payment or delivery pursuant to a Grant shall cause such exercise, payment or delivery to be rescinded. The Company shall notify the Participant in writing of any such rescission within two years after such exercise, payment or delivery. Within ten days after receiving such a notice from the Company, the Participant shall pay to the Company the amount of any gain realized or payment received as a result of the rescinded exercise, payment or delivery pursuant to a Grant. Such payment shall be made either in cash or by returning to the Company the number of shares of Stock that the Participant received in connection with the rescinded exercise, payment or delivery.

 

(d)Nonassignability.

 

(i)Except pursuant to Section 6(e)(iii) and except as set forth in Section 6(d)(ii), no Grant or any other benefit under the Plan shall be assignable or transferable, or payable to or exercisable by, anyone other than the Participant to whom it was granted.

 

(ii)Where a Participant terminates employment and retains a Grant pursuant to Section 6(e)(ii) in order to assume a position with a governmental, charitable or educational institution, the Board or Committee, in its discretion and to the extent permitted by law, may authorize a third party (including but not limited to the trustee of a “blind” trust), acceptable to the applicable governmental or institutional authorities, the Participant and the Board or Committee, to act on behalf of the Participant with regard to such Awards.

 

- 9 -
 

  

(e)Termination of Employment. If the employment or service to the Company of a Participant terminates, other than pursuant to any of the following provisions under this Section 6(e), all unexercised, deferred and unpaid Stock Awards or Restricted Stock Purchase Offers shall be cancelled immediately, unless the Stock Award Agreement or Restricted Stock Purchase Offer provides otherwise:

 

(i)Retirement Under a Company Retirement Plan. When a Participant's employment terminates as a result of retirement in accordance with the terms of a Company retirement plan, the Board or Committee may permit Stock Awards or Restricted Stock Purchase Offers to continue in effect beyond the date of retirement in accordance with the applicable Grant Agreement and the exercisability and vesting of any such Grants may be accelerated.

 

(ii)Rights in the Best Interests of the Company. When a Participant resigns from the Company and, in the judgment of the Board or Committee, the acceleration and/or continuation of outstanding Stock Awards or Restricted Stock Purchase Offers would be in the best interests of the Company, the Board or Committee may (i) authorize, where appropriate, the acceleration and/or continuation of all or any part of Grants issued prior to such termination and (ii) permit the exercise, vesting and payment of such Grants for such period as may be set forth in the applicable Grant Agreement, subject to earlier cancellation pursuant to Section 9 or at such time as the Board or Committee shall deem the continuation of all or any part of the Participant's Grants are not in the Company's best interest.

 

(iii)Death or Disability of a Participant.

 

(1)In the event of a Participant's death, the Participant's estate or beneficiaries shall have a period up to the expiration date specified in the Grant Agreement within which to receive or exercise any outstanding Grant held by the Participant under such terms as may be specified in the applicable Grant Agreement. Rights to any such outstanding Grants shall pass by will or the laws of descent and distribution in the following order: (a) to beneficiaries so designated by the Participant; if none, then (b) to a legal representative of the Participant; if none, then (c) to the persons entitled thereto as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction. Grants so passing shall be made at such times and in such manner as if the Participant were living.

 

(2)In the event a Participant is deemed by the Board or Committee to be unable to perform his or her usual duties by reason of mental disorder or medical condition which does not result from facts which would be grounds for termination for cause, Grants and rights to any such Grants may be paid to or exercised by the Participant, if legally competent, or a committee or other legally designated guardian or representative if the Participant is legally incompetent by virtue of such disability.

 

(3)After the death or disability of a Participant, the Board or Committee may in its sole discretion at any time (1) terminate restrictions in Grant Agreements; (2) accelerate any or all installments and rights; and (3) instruct the Company to pay the total of any accelerated payments in a lump sum to the Participant, the Participant's estate, beneficiaries or representative; notwithstanding that, in the absence of such termination of restrictions or acceleration of payments, any or all of the payments due under the Grant might ultimately have become payable to other beneficiaries.

 

(4)In the event of uncertainty as to interpretation of or controversies concerning this Section 6, the determinations of the Board or Committee, as applicable, shall be binding and conclusive.

 

7.Change in Control.Unless otherwise provided in the applicable Grant Agreement, in the event of a Change in Control, 50% of the vesting restrictions applicable to each Participant’s Grant(s) shall terminate fully and the Participant shall immediately have the right to the delivery of share certificates or exercise of Options, i.e. to the extent that a Participant’s Option(s) are unvested, 50% of such unvested portion shall vest.

 

- 10 -
 

  

8.Investment Intent. All Grants under the Plan are intended to be exempt from registration under the Securities Act provided by Rule 701 thereunder. Unless and until the granting of Options or sale and issuance of Stock subject to the Plan are registered under the Securities Act or shall be exempt pursuant to the rules promulgated thereunder, each Grant under the Plan shall provide that the purchases or other acquisitions of Stock thereunder shall be for investment purposes and not with a view to, or for resale in connection with, any distribution thereof. Further, unless the issuance and sale of the Stock have been registered under the Securities Act, each Grant shall provide that no shares shall be purchased upon the exercise of the rights under such Grant unless and until (i) all then applicable requirements of state and federal laws and regulatory agencies shall have been fully complied with to the satisfaction of the Company and its counsel, and (ii) if requested to do so by the Company, the person exercising the rights under the Grant shall (A) give written assurances as to knowledge and experience of such person (or a representative employed by such person) in financial and business matters and the ability of such person (or representative) to evaluate the merits and risks of exercising the Option, and (B) execute and deliver to the Company a letter of investment intent and/or such other form related to applicable exemptions from registration, all in such form and substance as the Company may require. If shares are issued upon exercise of any rights under a Grant without registration under the Securities Act, subsequent registration of such shares shall relieve the purchaser thereof of any investment restrictions or representations made upon the exercise of such rights.

 

9.Amendment, Modification, Suspension or Discontinuance of the Plan. The Board may, insofar as permitted by law, from time to time, with respect to any shares at the time not subject to outstanding Grants, suspend or terminate the Plan or revise or amend it in any respect whatsoever, except that without the approval of the shareholders of the Company, no such revision or amendment shall (i) increase the number of shares subject to the Plan, (ii) decrease the price at which Grants may be granted, (iii) materially increase the benefits to Participants, or (iv) change the class of persons eligible to receive Grants under the Plan; provided, however, no such action shall alter or impair the rights and obligations under any Option, or Stock Award, or Restricted Stock Purchase Offer outstanding as of the date thereof without the written consent of the Participant thereunder. No Grant may be issued while the Plan is suspended or after it is terminated, but the rights and obligations under any Grant issued while the Plan is in effect shall not be impaired by suspension or termination of the Plan.
   
  In the event of any change in the outstanding Stock by reason of a stock split, stock dividend, combination or reclassification of shares, recapitalization, merger, or similar event, the Board or the Committee may adjust proportionally (a) the number of shares of Stock (i) reserved under the Plan, (ii) available for Incentive Stock Options and Nonstatutory Options and (iii) covered by outstanding Stock Awards or Restricted Stock Purchase Offers; (b) the Stock prices related to outstanding Grants; and (c) the appropriate Fair Market Value and other price determinations for such Grants. In the event of any other change affecting the Stock or any distribution (other than normal cash dividends) to holders of Stock, such adjustments as may be deemed equitable by the Board or the Committee, including adjustments to avoid fractional shares, shall be made to give proper effect to such event. In the event of a corporate merger, consolidation, acquisition of property or stock, separation, reorganization or liquidation, the Board or the Committee shall be authorized to issue or assume stock options, whether or not in a transaction to which Section 424(a) of the Code applies, and other Grants by means of substitution of new Grant Agreements for previously issued Grants or an assumption of previously issued Grants. 

  

10.Tax Withholding. The Company shall have the right to deduct applicable taxes from any Grant payment and withhold, at the time of delivery or exercise of Options, Stock Awards or Restricted Stock Purchase Offers or vesting of shares under such Grants, an appropriate number of shares for payment of taxes required by law or to take such other action as may be necessary in the opinion of the Company to satisfy all obligations for withholding of such taxes. If Stock is used to satisfy tax withholding, such stock shall be valued based on the Fair Market Value when the tax withholding is required to be made.
11.Availability of Information. During the term of the Plan and any additional period during which a Grant granted pursuant to the Plan shall be exercisable, the Company shall make available, not later than one hundred and twenty (120) days following the close of each of its fiscal years, such financial and other information regarding the Company as is required by the bylaws of the Company and applicable law to be furnished in an annual report to the shareholders of the Company.

 

- 11 -
 

  

12.Notice. Any written notice to the Company required by any of the provisions of the Plan shall be addressed to the chief personnel officer or to the chief executive officer of the Company, and shall become effective when it is received by the office of the chief personnel officer or the chief executive officer.

 

13.Indemnification of Board. In addition to such other rights or indemnifications as they may have as directors or otherwise, and to the extent allowed by applicable law, the members of the Board and the Committee shall be indemnified by the Company against the reasonable expenses, including attorneys' fees, actually and necessarily incurred in connection with the defense of any claim, action, suit or proceeding, or in connection with any appeal thereof, to which they or any of them may be a party by reason of any action taken, or failure to act, under or in connection with the Plan or any Grant granted thereunder, and against all amounts paid by them in settlement thereof (provided such settlement is approved by independent legal counsel selected by the Company) or paid by them in satisfaction of a judgment in any such claim, action, suit or proceeding, except in any case in relation to matters as to which it shall be adjudged in such claim, action, suit or proceeding that such Board or Committee member is liable for negligence or misconduct in the performance of his or her duties; provided that within sixty (60) days after institution of any such action, suit or Board proceeding the member involved shall offer the Company, in writing, the opportunity, at its own expense, to handle and defend the same.
14.Governing Law. The Plan and all determinations made and actions taken pursuant hereto, to the extent not otherwise governed by the Code or the securities laws of the United States, shall be governed by the law of the State of New York and construed accordingly.

 

15.Termination Dates. The Plan shall terminate ten years later, subject to earlier termination by the Board pursuant to Section 9.

 

The foregoing 2012 Stock Incentive Plan (consisting of 12 pages, including this page) was duly adopted and approved by the Board of Directors on February 9, 2012.
