Compensation Table, page 21

12.  
The compensation tabled referred only to shares of founders stock which was previously disclosed. We have reconciled all disclosures with notes to the financial statements. Supplementally, please be advised that all stock issued is deemed to be founders shares and no further stock awards have been made therefore, FASB ASC Topic 718 is not applicable. In addition, no compensation was paid to officers and directors until 2010 essentially because the Company has no funds to allocate for that purpose.

13.  
Disclosure clearly indicating that the directors received no payment for services other than for expenses reimbursement has been provided.

Employment Agreements, page 22

14.  
Please be advised that, yes there was a contractual obligation to pay the two officers however, based upon potential adverse tax consequences, all claims to such compensation have been accrued.

15.
