The SEC allows us to “incorporate by reference” the information we file with them, which means that we can disclose important information to you by referring you to those documents.

Item 4. Description of Securities.

Inapplicable.
 
Item 5. Interests of Named Experts and Counsel.
 
Spectrum Law Group, LLP and certain affiliates of Spectrum Law Group, LLP may be issued shares of our common stock pursuant to this offering.
 
Item 6. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 (the "Act") may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the small business issuer pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the small business issuer has been advised 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. The Company's Certificate of Incorporation provides that no director of the Company shall be personally liable to the Company or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director except as limited by Delaware law. The Company's Bylaws provide that the Company shall indemnify to the full extent authorized by law each of its directors and officers against expenses incurred in connection with any proceeding arising by reason of the fact that such person is or was an agent of the corporation.

Delaware law

Section 145 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware empowers a Delaware corporation to indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending, or completed action, suit, or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative, or investigative (other than an action by or in the right of the corporation) by reason of the fact that such person is or was a director, officer, employee, or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee, or agent of another corporation,  partnership, joint  venture,  trust,  or  other  enterprise,  against  expenses  (including attorneys' fees), judgments,  fines, and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably  incurred by such person in  connection  with such action, suit, or proceeding  if such  person  acted in good  faith  and in a manner such person reasonably  believed  to be in or not  opposed  to  the  best  interests  of the corporation,  and with  respect to any  criminal  action or  proceeding,  had no reasonable  cause to  believe  that such  person's  conduct  was  unlawful.  The termination of any action, suit, or proceeding by judgment, order, settlement, conviction, or upon plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, does not, of itself, create a presumption that such person did not act in good faith and in a manner that such person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had reasonable cause to believe that such person's conduct was unlawful.
                        
In the case of an action by or in the right of the corporation, Section 145 empowers a corporation to indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending, or completed action in any of the capacities set forth above against expenses  (including attorneys' fees) actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with the defense or settlement of such action or suit if such person acted in good faith and in a manner that such person reasonably believed to be in and not opposed to the best  interests  of the  corporation,  except  that  indemnification  is not permitted in respect of any claim,  issue,  or matter as to which such person is adjudged to be liable to the corporation  unless and only to the extent that the Court of Chancery or the  court  in  which  such  action  or suit was  brought determines upon application  that,  despite the adjudication of liability but in view of all the  circumstances of the case, such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses that the Court of Chancery or such other court deems proper.

Section 145 further provides:

 
·
that a Delaware  corporation is required to indemnify a director, officer,  employee,  or agent  against  expenses  (including attorneys' fees) actually and reasonably  incurred by such person in connection with any action,  suit, or proceeding or in defense of any claim,  issue,  or matter  therein as to which such person has been successful on the merits or otherwise;

 
·
that  indemnification  provided  for by Section  145 shall not be deemed  exclusive  of any other  rights to which the  indemnified party may be entitled;

 
·
that  indemnification  provided for by Section 145 shall, unless otherwise provided when authorized or ratified,  continue as to a person who has ceased to be a  director,  officer,  employee,  or agent and shall  inure to the  benefit  of such  person's  heirs, executors, and administrators; and
 
-3-

 
 
·
that a Delaware  corporation may purchase and maintain  insurance on behalf of its directors or officers against any such liability asserted  against them as directors or officers or arising out of their  status  as  directors  or  officers  whether  or  not  the corporation  would  have the  power  to  indemnify them against liability under Section 145.
 
A Delaware corporation may provide indemnification only as authorized in the specific case upon a determination that indemnification of the director, officer, employee or agent is proper in the circumstances because he has met the applicable standard of conduct. Such determination is to be made:

 
·
by  the  board  of  directors  by a  majority  vote  of a  quorum consisting of directors who were not party to such action,  suit, or proceeding;

 
·
if such a quorum is not  obtainable,  or, even if  obtainable,  a quorum of  disinterested  directors  so directs,  by  independent legal counsel in a written opinion; or

 
·
by the stockholders.

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities may be invoked to disclaim liability for damages arising under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Act of 1934, (collectively, the "Acts") as amended, it is the position of the Securities and Exchange Commission that such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Acts and are therefore, unenforceable.

Item 9. Undertakings.

A. The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes to file during any period in which offers or sales of the securities are being made, a post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement to include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed or any material change to such information set forth in the Registration Statement.
 
B. The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes 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.
 
-4-

 
C. The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes 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.
 
D. 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.
 
E. 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 Act 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 whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
