On July 15, 2010, we entered into a written Consultant Agreement with David N. Baker in the form and substance attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1.

At present, we pay Mr. Baker the sum of $12,000 per month for consulting services.  Per the terms of our written agreement, that payment will be increased to $15,000 per month effective January 1, 2011.  Mr. Baker is also eligible for any performance bonus that our board may, in its discretion, determine to award him.  We also granted Mr. Baker options to purchase up to 200,000 shares of our common stock.  The option to purchase 100,000 shares is fully vested and is exercisable at $1.10 per share.  The option to purchase the remaining 100,000 shares vests one-third per year over each of the next three years and is exercisable at $1.00 per share.  All of the options granted to Mr. Baker will expire if not exercised within five years.
 
There are no family relationships between Mr. Baker and any of our directors or executive officers.

Mr. Baker has not had any material direct or indirect interest in any of our transactions or proposed transactions over the last two years.
