CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

GENERAL INFORMATION ABOUT THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS

The Board of Directors oversees the management of the Company on your behalf. The Board reviews the Company's long-term strategic plans and exercises direct decision-making authority in key areas such as choosing the Chief Executive Officer, setting the scope of his authority to manage the Company's business day to day, and evaluating his performance. The Board has established a Board consisting of five directors for the upcoming fiscal year.

The Company’s Common Stock is not traded on a national securities exchange or an inter-dealer quotation system that has requirements related to director independence or composition of certain board committees. Currently, the Company’s Common Stock is traded on the over-the-counter bulletin board (OTCBB).

The Board held four meetings during the fiscal year ended May 31, 2008. Each director attended 100% of the Board meetings held during the fiscal year ended May 31, 2008. In addition, each director of the Company attended the Company’s previous annual meeting of shareholders held on January 7, 2008. The Company expects each of its directors to attend each future annual meeting of shareholders absent a significant personal or business conflict.

Director Independence

Four of the Company’s directors would be considered "independent" as defined by federal securities laws and NASDAQ listing standards. Although the Company does not have a definite plan, the Company may expand its Board of Directors in the future to include additional independent directors.

2

Board Committees

The Board has commissioned at meetings convened since the fiscal year ended May 31, 2008, though not populated, as yet, separate audit, nominating, governance and compensation committees.

Code of Ethics

The Company has not yet adopted a Code of Ethics, but expects to adopt a code of ethics during the upcoming fiscal year.

Nomination Process

Directors are elected each year by shareholders at the annual meeting. Currently, the Board of Directors leads the search for individuals qualified to become members of the Board and selects director nominees to be presented for approval at the annual meeting of shareholders.

The Board selects nominees who have personal and professional integrity, who have demonstrated business ability and judgment and who are effective, in conjunction with the other nominees and members of the Board, in collectively serving the interests of shareholders.

Shareholders may propose nominees for election as directors. The Board will evaluate director nominee candidates based on the same criteria regardless of whether they are recommended by Committee members or by a shareholder. Shareholders should submit the following information ("Nomination Information") in writing to the Company at 1535 Memphis Junction Road, Bowling Green, Kentucky 42101: (a) the shareholder's name and address; (b) number of shares of the Company's stock held by the shareholder; and (c) the following Nomination Information with respect to the nominee: (i) name, age, business address and residence address; (ii) principal occupation or employment; (iii) number of shares of the Company's stock held by the nominee; and (iv) the reason the shareholder believes the nominee is qualified to serve as a director. Upon request, the shareholder must submit additional information reasonably requested by the Board, including information that would be required to be disclosed about a director nominee pursuant to federal proxy disclosure requirements. If a shareholder wishes to submit a name for consideration by the Board for director nomination at the next annual meeting of shareholders, the Nomination Information must be received by the Company no later than August 11, 2009.

Equity Compensation Plan

The Company’s only equity compensation plan is the 2006 Stock Ownership Incentive Plan (“Plan”). The Plan was approved by shareholders at the Company’s most recent Annual Meeting of Shareholders. The purpose of the Plan is to enhance the ability of the Company to secure and retain the services of qualified employees and non-employee directors and to provide incentives for such employees and non-employee directors to exert maximum efforts for the success of the Company.

Authorized Shares. The number of shares of Common Stock authorized for issuance under the Plan is 950,000 shares. Shares as to which options or other awards under the Plan lapse, expire, terminate, are forfeited or are canceled will again be available for awards under the Plan.

In the event of any change in the corporate structure of the Company affecting the Common Stock, such as a merger, reorganization, consolidation, recapitalization, reclassification, stock split or similar transaction, the Board of Directors or any administering committee appointed by the Board (“Committee”) will substitute or adjust the total number and class of securities which may be issued under the Plan and the number, class and price of shares subject to outstanding awards as it, in its discretion, determines to be appropriate and equitable to prevent dilution or enlargement of the rights of participants and to preserve the value of outstanding awards.

Eligible Participants. Full-time employees of the Company and its subsidiaries and non-employee directors of the Company are eligible to receive awards under the Plan. Participants will be selected by the Board (or the Committee). As of May 31, 2008, the Company had approximately 15 full-time employees.

Administration of the Plan. The Plan is administered by the Board of Directors or a Committee appointed by the Board to administer the Plan. The Board or the Committee will determine, subject to the terms of Plan, the persons to receive awards, the size, type and frequency of awards, the terms and conditions of each award, and whether any performance goals have been met. The Board of Directors or the Committee will also have the power to accelerate the exercisability of awards, waive restrictions and conditions applicable to awards, and interpret the provisions of the Plan.

Limitations on Awards. The Plan provides for the grant of stock options and restricted stock. No more than 450,000 shares of restricted stock may be awarded under the Plan. In addition, no person may be granted more than 100,000 shares of restricted stock or options for more than 200,000 shares during any calendar year. In the event of any change in the corporate structure of the Company affecting the Common Stock, such as a merger, reorganization, consolidation, recapitalization, reclassification, stock split or similar transaction, the Board of Directors or the Committee will make appropriate and equitable adjustments to the award limitations under the Plan.

No Repricing. Without shareholder approval, neither the Board of Directors nor the Committee will have any authority, with or without the consent of the holders of awards, to “reprice” any awards after the date of initial grant with a lower exercise price in substitution for the original exercise price.

Change in Control. Upon a Change in Control, as defined in the Plan, all outstanding options will become fully vested and immediately exercisable. In addition, any restrictions and other conditions pertaining to restricted stock held by participants will lapse and such shares will become immediately transferable and nonforfeitable, subject to applicable securities law requirements.

8

Termination of the Plan. The Plan will terminate on the earliest of (a) the 10^th anniversary of its effective date; (b) the date when all shares available for issuance under the Plan have been acquired and payment of all benefits in connection with awards under the Plan has been made; or (c) such other date as the Board of Directors may determine.

Employment Agreements

On October 9, 2006 the Company entered into Employment Agreements with Vincent C. Buckman and Samuel J. Stone with regard to their service as President and Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, respectively.

Each of the Employment Agreements has a two-year term and is automatically extended for one additional year at the end of the initial term and each extension period, unless one party gives the other party at least 60 days notice prior to the end of the applicable term. Mr. Buckman’s annual base salary is $120,000 and Mr. Stone’s annual base salary is $102,000. Mr. Buckman and Mr. Stone will be considered for bonuses annually by the Board of Directors based on their performance during the preceding year. Bonuses may be paid in cash, stock or a combination thereof, in the discretion of the Board.

Mr. Buckman’s Employment Agreement provided that the Company would grant him options to purchase an aggregate of 545,455 shares of Common Stock at the fair market value on the date of grant as follows: (a) an option to purchase 300,000 shares within 30 days of the date on which his employment commenced in October 2006; (b) an option to purchase 122,728 shares on the first anniversary date of the Employment Agreement (October 2007); and (c) an option to purchase 122,727 shares on the second anniversary date of the Employment Agreement (October 2008).

Mr. Stone’s Employment Agreement provided that the Company would grant him options to purchase an aggregate of 454,545 shares of Common Stock at the fair market value on the date of grant as follows: (a) an option to purchase 250,000 shares within 30 days of the date on which his employment commenced (October 2006); (b) an option to purchase 102,273 shares on the first anniversary date of the Employment Agreement (October 2007); and (c) an option to purchase 102,272 shares on the second anniversary date of the Employment Agreement (October 2008).

All options granted pursuant to the Employment Agreements will have a term of five years and will vest in three equal annual installments, commencing on the first anniversary of the date of grant.

The Employment Agreements may be terminated by the Company on the death or disability of the executive officer, or in the event that such executive officer engages in any act constituting “misconduct” as defined in the Employment Agreement. The Executive Officers may terminate their Employment Agreements if the Company materially breaches any material provision of the Employment Agreement or following a Change in Control (as defined in the Employment Agreement). If the Executive Officer terminates the Employment Agreement for “cause”, the Executive Officer will be entitled to a monthly salary equal to the base salary set forth in the Employment Agreement for a period of 12 months following termination of employment.

9

Both Employment Agreements provide for reimbursement for reasonable business and travel expenses and reimbursement of $500 per month for housing expenses during the first year. The Executive Officers will be entitled to participate in any other individual or group life insurance, health insurance, qualified pension or profit sharing plan or any other fringe benefit program which the Company may from time to time make available to its executive employees. The Company has also agreed to indemnify the Executive Officers to the full extent permitted by law and to the extent that the Company obtains or maintains directors and officers liability insurance covering any executive officers of the Company, to provide such insurance to the Executive Officers. The Employment Agreements contain provisions relating to non-disclosure of proprietary information and a covenant not to compete with the Compan y for one year following termination of employment in certain geographic areas. The Employment Agreements also provide that the Executive Officers will not, while employed by the Company and for a period of one year following termination, directly or indirectly solicit or induce any employee of the Company to leave the Company or hire any individual employed by the Company. As of January 27, 2008, Mr. Stone resigned and as of July 1, 2008, Mr. Buckman resigned.

On February 1, 1998, the Company entered into an employment agreement with Paul D. Clark, pursuant to which the Company employed Mr. Clark for successive three-year terms. The agreement provided for an initial base salary of $78,500 per year and the provision of family health insurance, and a $100,000 whole life insurance policy. As of January 1, 2007, this employment agreement was modified to provide for a $12,000 per year base salary. As of May 14, 2008, Mr. Clark resigned.

Related Party Transactions

We have entered into two operating leases with Paul D. Clark, Chairman of the Board. The leases relate to a total of 32,000 square feet of office and warehouse space located in Bowling Green, Kentucky. The leases provide for a monthly rent of $7,920 in the aggregate plus payment of maintenance expenses. One of the leases expires in August 2008 and the other lease expires in September 2008. The Company believes that the terms of these leases are at least as favorable as those which could have been obtained from an unrelated third party.

During the last fiscal year, as well as in prior years, a portion of Mr. Clark’s salary was deferred. In addition, from time to time, Mr. Clark has advanced amounts on behalf of the Company for which the Company has issued Mr. Clark a promissory note. As of May 31, 2008, the Company owed Mr. Clark $142,519 for cash advanced for inventory and $263,100 in deferred compensation. During the year ended May 31, 2008, Mr. Clark was paid $47,106 principal and $14,733 accrued interest as repayment for cash advanced.

Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance

Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 requires the Company's executive officers, directors and persons who own more than 10% of a registered class of the Company's equity securities to file reports of ownership and changes in ownership. Based on a review of such forms, the Company believes that during the last fiscal year, all of its executive officers, directors and ten percent shareholders complied with the Section 16 reporting requirements.

Report of the Audit Committee

As of the date of this Proxy Statement, the Company has commissioned though not populated an audit committee. Therefore, the functions of an audit committee are being performed by the Board of Directors of the Company.

In the future, the Company will populate the audit committee. When populated, the audit committee's primary function would be to provide advice with respect to the Company's financial matters and to assist the Board of Directors in fulfilling its oversight responsibilities regarding finance, accounting, tax and legal compliance.

The Board of Directors oversees the Company's financial reporting process. Management has the primary responsibility for the financial statements and the reporting process including the systems of internal controls. In fulfilling its oversight responsibilities, the Board of Directors reviews the interim financial statements filed quarterly and the audited financial statements in the Annual Report with management including a discussion of the quality, not just the acceptability, of the accounting principles, the reasonableness of significant judgments, and the clarity of disclosures in the financial statements. During the fiscal year ended May 31, 2008, due to the size of the Company’s Board, the Board of Directors did not have a financial expert

The Board of Directors reviewed with the independent auditors, who are responsible for expressing an opinion on the conformity of those audited financial statements with generally accepted accounting principles, their judgments as to the quality, not just the acceptability, of the Company's accounting principles and such other matters as are required to be discussed with the Committee under standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board. In addition, the Board of Directors has discussed with the independent auditors the auditors' independence from management and the Company including the matters in the written disclosures required by the Independence Standards Board and considered the compatibility of non-audit services (comprised of tax preparation services) with the auditors' independence.

The Board of Directors discussed with the Company's independent auditors the overall scope and plans for their respective audits. The Board of Directors met with the independent auditors, with management present, to discuss the results of their examinations, their evaluations of the Company's internal controls, and the overall quality of the Company's financial reporting. The independent auditors afforded the Board, which they declined, an opportunity to meet without management present. In reliance on the reviews and discussions referred to above, the Board of Directors approved the audited financial statements included in the Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended May 31, 2008 for filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Board of Directors also approved the selection of the Company's independent auditors.

PROPOSAL 2: RATIFICATION OF THE APPOINTMENT OF MARMANN &
ASSOCIATES PC, AS THE COMPANY’S INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS
FOR THE FISCAL YEAR ENDING MAY 31, 2009

The Board is seeking shareholder ratification of its appointment of Marmann & Associates PC, as independent public accountants for the fiscal year ending May 31, 2009. Although action by the shareholders in this matter is not required, the Board believes that it is appropriate to seek shareholder ratification of this appointment in light of the critical role played by independent auditors in maintaining the integrity of the Company's financial reporting. Even if shareholders vote on an advisory basis in favor of the appointment, the Board may, in its discretion, direct the appointment of different auditors at any time during the year if it determines that such a change would be in the best interest of the Company and its shareholders. An affirmative vote of a majority of votes cast at the meeting is required for ratification. Representatives of Marmann & ssociates PC are expected to be present at the An nual Meeting and will be given an opportunity to comment, if they so desire, and to respond to appropriate questions that may be asked by shareholders.

Audit Fees and Expenses for the Fiscal Year Ended May 31, 2008

During the fiscal year ended May 31, 2008, the Company was billed and paid Marmann & Associates PC for the audit of our annual financial statements and review of our quarterly financial statements the amount of $57,308.
