Wal-Mart, a longstanding customer will carry an increased assortment of our products, featuring their introduction of our Fuel Additive, StarTron products, in approximately 2,700 retail outlets, many of which did not previously carry any of our products. Our StarTron products are gaining national consumer recognition and we expect to aggressively promote these items during the current year in order to more fully develop their potential. We have modified our short and long term manufacturing production plans to include retail "sell-through" projections presented to us by Wal-Mart. Although the financial impact of the expanded distribution for the remaining months of the year ending December 31, 2007 cannot be ascertained at this time, we will publicly disclose our progress in this regard in prospective filings with the Commission. SIGNATURES Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the Registrant has duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned thereunto duly authorized.
