Effective December 13, 2010, the Company issued 2,500,000 options over shares of Common Stock to employees under the 2010 Equity Incentive Plan that has been adopted by the Directors of the Company. The options vested 1/3 on December 13, 2010, 1/3 vested on November 17, 2011 and the balance vested on November 17, 2012. The exercise price of the options is US$1.00 and the latest exercise date for the options is November 17, 2020.

The Company has accounted for all options issued based upon their fair market value using the Binomial pricing model.

An external consultant has calculated the fair value of the 2,500,000 options using the Binomial valuation method using the following inputs:

Grant date	Dec 13, 2010	Dec 13, 2010	Dec 13, 2010
Grant date share price	US$1.10	US$1.10	US$1.10
