5.     DEFERRED COMPENSATION:

Current:

The Company owes Edward Shafer, the Company’s Executive Vice Chairman, and three other key employees, aggregate deferred compensation of $194,583 as of December 31, 2012.

Non-current:

As of December 31, 2012, the Company owed Brightcap Capital Ltd. (“Brightcap”), for services provided by Mr. Bassani, deferred compensation of $754,330, including interest of $69,330, which is due and payable on January 15, 2014.  Of the $754,330, $206,250 of the deferred compensation accrues interest at 10% per annum and is convertible into the Company’s restricted common stock at $1.50 per share.  The remaining $548,080 of deferred compensation accrues interest at 8% per annum and is convertible into Units at $2.50 per Unit which consists of one share of the Company’s common stock and one warrant to purchase a share of the Company’s common stock. Conversion of this deferred compensation is at the sole discretion of Brightcap and Bassani.

As of December 31, 2012, the Company owes Mr. Smith deferred compensation of $389,250, including interest of $19,496 which is due and payable on January 15, 2014.  The deferred compensation accrues interest at 8% per annum.  The deferred compensation plus accrued interest of $548,080 and $389,250 owed to Brightcap and Mr. Smith, respectively, may be converted, at the sole election of Brightcap and Mr. Smith, into Units consisting of one share of the Company’s common stock and one warrant to purchase a share of the Company’s common stock, at a price of $2.50 per Unit until December 31, 2016.  As the conversion price of $2.50 per Unit approximated the fair value of the Units at the date of the agreements, no beneficial conversion feature exists at December 31, 2012.  In addition, the conversion price of the deferred compensation plus accrued interest will be the lower of the $2.50 per Unit price or the lowest price at which the Company sells its common stock between April 1, 2012 and January 15, 2014. As of December 31, 2012, the lowest price at which the Company has sold its common stock during the relevant period is $1.91 per share. Subsequently, the Company sold shares of its common stock at a price of $1.64 per share during January 2013 pursuant to a formula for conversion of deferred compensation in an existing compensation agreement.  Management evaluated the terms and conditions of the embedded conversion features based on the guidance of ASC 815-15-25-1 to determine if there was an embedded derivative requiring bifurcation. An embedded derivative instrument (such as a conversion option embedded in the deferred compensation) must be bifurcated from its host instruments and accounted for separately as a derivative instrument only if the “risks and rewards” of the embedded derivative instrument are not “clearly and closely related” to the risks and rewards of the host instrument in which it is embedded.  Management concluded that the embedded conversion feature of the deferred compensation was not required to be bifurcated because the conversion feature is clearly and closely related to the host instrument, and because of the Company’s limited trading volume that indicates the feature is not readily convertible to cash in accordance with ASC 815-10, “Derivatives and Hedging”.
