Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Netcapital Inc. (NCPL) filed a Schedule 14A preliminary proxy for a virtual Annual Meeting on 11 Sep 2025 (10:30 a.m. ET). Shareholders of record as of 3 Jul 2025 (3,040,380 common shares outstanding) will consider six voting items:

Election of five directors (Martin Kay, Cecilia Lenk, Steven Geary, Avi Liss, Arnold Scott) to one-year terms.
Ratification of Fruci & Associates II, PLLC as FY-2026 auditor.
Advisory “Say-on-Pay” for FY-2025 NEO compensation (CEO Martin Kay $375.8k cash + bonus; CFO Coreen Kraysler $275.8k).
First & Second amendments to the 2023 Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan.
Reincorporation from Utah to Nevada.
Authority to adjourn the meeting to solicit additional proxies.

The board unanimously recommends FOR each proposal. Quorum is >1.52 M shares (50%). Votes may be cast online (www.netcapital.vote), by email, mail, fax, or during the listen-only call (877-407-3088). No cash director fees were paid in FY-2025; non-employee directors are compensated with equity only. A copy of the FY-2025 annual report is available at SEC.gov.

Insights

TL;DR: Routine proxy; reincorporation and expanded equity plan tweak governance, limited near-term valuation effect.

The filing is largely procedural. Items 1-3 (directors, auditor, Say-on-Pay) are standard and unlikely to alter financial outlook. Reincorporation to Nevada may cut corporate-law friction and modestly reduce future tax/legal costs, but Nevada statutes can weaken minority-shareholder protections. Equity Plan amendments expand share reserves, giving management additional equity currency—positive for retention yet potentially dilutive. No new capital raises, M&A or guidance changes are disclosed; therefore, market impact should be muted.

TL;DR: Governance housekeeping; shareholders should weigh dilution risk versus flexibility from plan and domicile changes.

Reincorporating in Nevada aligns NCPL with a business-friendly regime offering strong director indemnification and flexible corporate statutes; however, Utah provides comparatively greater fiduciary standards, so the move shifts balance toward management. The 2023 Plan amendments lack share-count detail here, but any material increase could exceed ISS/Egan-Jones burn-rate guidelines given NCPL’s 3.0 M share base. Virtual-only meeting and no director cash fees signal cost discipline. Overall, proposals are customary, yet investors focused on dilution and rights should scrutinize final definitive proxy.

Q:	What is a proxy?

A:	A proxy is a person you appoint to vote on your behalf. By using any of the methods discussed above, you will be appointing as your proxy Martin Kay, our Chief Executive Officer. He may act on your behalf, and will have the authority to appoint a substitute to act as proxy. Whether or not you expect to virtually attend the Annual Meeting, we request that you please use the means available to you to vote by proxy so as to ensure that your shares of common stock may be voted.

Q:	How Will my Shares be Voted if I Give No Specific Instruction?

A:	We must vote your shares as you have instructed. If there is a matter on which a shareholder of record has given no specific instruction but has authorized us generally to vote the shares, they will be voted: Our Board unanimously recommends that you vote: “FOR” the election of our Board’s director nominees (Proposal 1); “FOR” the ratification of the appointment of Fruci as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending April 30, 2026 (Proposal 2); “FOR” the approval of the Say on Pay Proposal (Proposal 3); “FOR” the approval of the Equity Plan Amendments Proposal (Proposal 4); FOR” the approval of the Reincorporation Proposal (Proposal 5); and “FOR” the approval of the Adjournment Proposal (Proposal 6). This authorization would exist, for example, if a shareholder of record merely signs, dates and returns the proxy card but does not indicate how its shares are to be voted on one or more proposals. If other matters properly come before the Annual Meeting and you do not provide specific voting instructions, your shares will be voted at the discretion of the proxies.

Q:	What if I want to change my vote or revoke my proxy?

A:	If your shares are registered directly in your name, you may revoke your proxy and change your vote at any time before the Annual Meeting. To do so, you must do one of the following:

	1.	Vote over the Internet as instructed above. Only your latest Internet vote is counted. You may not revoke or change your vote over the Internet after 7:00 p.m. Eastern Time on September 10, 2025.

	2.	Sign a new proxy and submit it by mail to Equity Stock Transfer at 237 W 37th St. Suite 602 New York, NY 10018 ATTN: Shareholder Services, who must receive the proxy card no later than September 9, 2025. Only your latest dated proxy will be counted.

	3.	Virtually attend the Annual Meeting and vote electronically at the meeting. Virtually attending the Annual Meeting alone will not revoke your Internet vote or proxy submitted by mail, as the case may be.

	4.	Give our Corporate Secretary written notice before or at the Annual Meeting that you want to revoke your proxy.

If your shares are held in “street name,” you may submit new voting instructions with a later date by contacting your bank, brokerage firm, or other nominee. You may also vote electronically at the Annual Meeting, which will have the effect of revoking any previously submitted voting instructions, if you obtain a broker’s legal proxy as described in the answer to the question “How do I vote my shares?” above.

Q:	What is a quorum?

A:	The holders of more than 50% of the 3,040,380 shares of common stock outstanding as of the Record Date, or 1,520,191 shares, either present or represented by proxy, constitute a quorum. A quorum is necessary in order to conduct the Annual Meeting. If you choose to have your shares represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting, you will be considered part of the quorum. Broker non-votes and abstentions will be counted as present for the purpose of establishing a quorum. If a quorum is not present by attendance at the Annual Meeting or represented by proxy, the shareholders present by attendance at the meeting or by proxy may adjourn the Annual Meeting until a quorum is present.

-9-

What is a Broker Non-Vote?

If your shares are held in street name, we urge you to instruct the organization who holds your shares how to vote your shares. If you sign your proxy card but do not provide instructions on how your broker should vote on “routine” proposals, your broker may vote your shares as recommended by the Board. If you do not provide voting instructions, we expect that your shares will not be voted on any “non-routine” proposals. This vote is called a “broker non-vote.” Because broker non-votes are not considered to be entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting, we expect that broker non-votes will not be included in the tabulation of the voting results of any of the “non-routine” proposals and, therefore, will have no effect on the voting results of such proposals.

We expect that brokers, banks, fiduciaries, custodians, or other nominees holding shares in street name for beneficial owners will not use discretionary authority to vote shares on the election of directors (Proposal 1), the Say on Pay Proposal (Proposal 3), the Equity Plan Amendments Proposal (Proposal 4) or the Reincorporation Proposal (Proposal 5) if they have not received instructions from their clients. Please submit your vote instruction form so your vote is counted.

Q:	What vote is required to approve each matter and how are votes counted?

A:	The table below summarizes the proposal that will be voted on, the vote required to approve the proposal and how votes are counted:

Proposal		Vote Required
Election of each of the five (5) director nominees to our Board of Directors		Plurality of the votes cast (the five directors nominees receiving the most “FOR” votes).
Ratification of the appointment of Fruci, as our independent registered public accounting firm for our fiscal year ending December 31, 2026		The affirmative vote of the holders of a majority in voting power of the votes cast affirmatively or negatively (excluding abstentions) at the 2025 Annual Meeting by the holders entitled to vote thereon.
Approval of the Say on Pay Proposal		The affirmative vote of the holders of a majority in voting power of the votes cast affirmatively or negatively (excluding abstentions) at the 2025 Annual Meeting by the holders entitled to vote thereon.

Approval of the Adjournment Proposal		The affirmative vote of the holders of a majority in voting power of the votes cast affirmatively or negatively (excluding abstentions) at the 2025 Annual Meeting by the holders entitled to vote thereon.

Q:	Do the directors and officers of the Company have an interest in the outcome of the matters to be voted on?

A:	Members of the Board have an interest in Proposal 1. We do not believe members of the Board or executive officers of the Company have any interest in Proposal 2, Proposal 5 or Proposal 6 that are different from or greater than those of any other of our stockholders. Our named executive officers have an interest in Proposal 3 as it relates to executive compensation of our named executive officers. Members of the Board and executive officers of the Company have an interest in Proposal 4 as it relates to a compensatory plan in which our directors and executive officers participate.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

General

We believe that good corporate governance is important to ensure that our Company is managed for the long-term benefit of our shareholders. This section describes key corporate governance practices that we have adopted. We have adopted a Code of Ethics which applies to all of our officers, directors and employees and charters for our audit committee, our compensation committee and our nominating and corporate governance committee.

Information contained on the website is not incorporated by reference in, or considered part of, this proxy statement.

We will also provide copies of these documents as well as our other corporate governance documents, free of charge, to any shareholder upon written request to Netcapital Inc., One Lincoln Street, Boston, MA 02111, Attn: Corporate Secretary.

Director Independence

Our common stock is currently quoted on the Nasdaq Capital Market. Nasdaq Rule 5065(b) requires that “[a] majority of the board of directors must be comprised of Independent Directors as defined in Rule 5605(a)(2).” Pursuant to these requirements, Avi Liss, Arnold Scott, and Steven Geary are independent members of our Board.

Non-Employee Director Compensation Policy

Our current director compensation program went into effect as of February 9, 2022, and is designed to align our director compensation program with the long-term interests of our stockholders by implementing a program comprised of equity compensation. The directors do not receive cash compensation as part of the director compensation program. Prior to February 9, 2022, we had no director compensation program.

In setting director compensation, the Company considers the amount of time that directors expend in fulfilling their duties to the Company as well as the skill level and experience required by our board of directors. The Company also considers board compensation practices at similarly situated companies, while keeping in mind the compensation philosophy of the Company and the stockholders’ interests. The directors also receive reimbursement for expenses, including reasonable travel expenses to attend board and committee meetings, reasonable outside seminar expenses, and other special board related expenses.

Board of Directors and Committees

Our Board has three standing Nasdaq compliance committees: Audit, Compensation, and Nominating and Corporate Governance. Each of the committees operates pursuant to its charter, all of which are available on the Corporate Governance section of our website, which is located at www.netcapitalinc.com.

Shareholder Communications with our Board

Shareholders and other interested persons seeking to communicate with our Board must submit their written communications to our Corporate Secretary at Netcapital Inc., One Lincoln Street, Boston, MA 02111. Such communications must include the number of Company securities owned, beneficially or otherwise, by the person issuing the communication. Depending on the subject matter of the communication, our Corporate Secretary will do one of the following:

●

forward the communication to the Board or any individual member of our Board to whom any communication is specifically addressed;

●

attempt to handle the inquiry directly, for example where it is a request for information about our Company or it is a stock related matter; or

●

not forward the communication if it is primarily commercial in nature, if it relates to an improper or irrelevant topic, or if it is unduly hostile, threatening, illegal or otherwise inappropriate.

Our Board (and any individual director to whom the communication was specifically addressed) will determine what further steps are appropriate depending on the facts and circumstances outlined in the communication.

Code of Ethics

We have adopted a Code of Ethics and Business Conduct applicable to our directors, officers and employees, in accordance with Section 406 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, the rules of the SEC promulgated thereunder, and the Nasdaq listing rules. You may obtain a copy of our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics on our website at www.netcapitalinc.com. In addition, a copy of the Code of Ethics and Business Conduct will be provided without charge upon request from us.

We also intend to post any amendments to our Code of Ethics and Business Conduct, or any waivers of its requirements, on our website, www.netcapitalinc.com.

Limitation of liability and indemnification matters

Our articles of incorporation contain provisions that limit the liability of our directors for monetary damages to the fullest extent permitted by Utah law. Consequently, our directors will not be personally liable to us or our stockholders for monetary damages for any breach of fiduciary duties as directors, unless the director engaged in gross negligence, willful misconduct or intentional infliction of harm on the corporation or its shareholders, or an intentional violation of criminal law.

We have entered and expect to continue to enter into agreements to indemnify our directors, executive officers and other employees as determined by our Board. With specified exceptions, these agreements provide for indemnification for related expenses including, among other things, attorneys’ fees, judgments, fines and settlement amounts incurred by any of these individuals in any action or proceeding. We believe that these provisions in our articles of incorporation and the indemnification agreements are necessary to attract and retain qualified persons as directors and officers.

The limitation of liability and indemnification provisions included in our articles of incorporation may discourage stockholders from bringing a lawsuit against our directors and officers for breach of their fiduciary duty. They may also reduce the likelihood of derivative litigation against our directors and officers, even though an action, if successful, might benefit us and our stockholders. Further, a stockholder’s investment may be adversely affected to the extent that we pay the costs of settlement and damage.

Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance

Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act of 1934, requires our directors and executive officers, and persons who own more than ten percent of a registered class of our equity securities (“10% Shareholders”), to file with the Commission initial reports of ownership and reports of changes in ownership of our common stock and other equity securities. Officers, directors and 10% Shareholders are required by Commission regulation to furnish us with copies of all Section 16(a) forms they file.

To our knowledge, based solely upon a review of Form 3, 4, and 5 filed with the SEC during the fiscal year ended April 30, 2025, we believe that, our directors, executive officers, and greater than 10% Shareholders have complied with all applicable filing requirements for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2025.

Insider Trading Policy

We have adopted an insider trading policy applicable to our directors, officers, employees, and other covered persons, and have implemented processes for the company, that we believe are reasonably designed to promote compliance with insider trading laws, rules and regulations, and the Nasdaq Capital Market listing standards. Our insider trading policy was filed as Exhibit 19.1 to our Annual Report on Form 10-K.

PROPOSAL NO. 1: ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

Our Board currently consists of five directors, and their terms will expire at the 2025 Annual Meeting. Directors are elected at the annual meeting of shareholders each year and hold office until their resignation or removal or their successors are duly elected and qualified.

Martin Kay, Cecilia Lenk, Steven Geary, Avi Liss and Arnold Scott have each been nominated to serve as directors and have agreed to stand for election. If the nominees are elected at the 2025 Annual Meeting, then each nominee will serve for a one-year term expiring at the 2025 annual meeting of shareholders and until his or her successor is duly elected and qualified.

-15-

Directors are elected by a plurality of the votes of the shares present in person or represented by proxy and entitled to vote on the election of directors, and which did not abstain.

Shares represented by executed proxies will be voted, if authority to do so is not withheld, for the election of each of the three nominees named below.

Recommendation of our Board

Officer Compensation

We pay each of our Named Executives Officers a combination of a cash salary and equity awards for their services.

Bonus Arrangements

Pursuant to the terms of the executive employment agreements and the Company’s compensation practices, the Board, upon recommendations of the Compensation Committee, may award discretionary bonuses based on Company performance and individual contributions. The Company does not have a formal bonus formula or plan but considers factors such as financial results, strategic milestones, and individual effort.

For fiscal year 2025, the Compensation Committee approved discretionary bonuses to Martin Kay and Coreen Kraysler in recognition of their roles in completing the fiscal year-end process, executing an equity financing, and advancing the application process for a broker-dealer license for a newly formed subsidiary of the Company. These efforts were deemed by the Compensation Committee to be critical to the Company’s strategic objectives.

Equity Grant Practices

The Company grants equity awards to executives and employees to align their long-term interests with those of shareholders and to attract and retain key personnel. Stock option grants are typically made at the time of hire and may also be awarded in connection with significant milestones or annual performance reviews. The exercise price of all stock options is equal to the fair market value of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant.

2023 Equity Incentive Plan

In March 2023, the Company’s stockholders approved the 2023 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2023 Plan”), which provides for the award of incentive stock options, non-qualified stock options, restricted stock awards, restricted stock units, stock appreciation rights, and cash-based incentive awards. As of April 30, 2025, there were [●] shares subject to outstanding option awards under the 2023 Plan and [●] shares remained available for future issuance.

2021 Equity Incentive Plan

In November 2021, the Company’s stockholders approved the 2021 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2021 Plan”), which authorized the issuance of [4,286] shares of common stock in the form of stock options, restricted stock, RSUs, SARs, and other equity-based and cash-based awards. As of April 30, 2025, 2,671 options had been granted to directors under the 2021 Plan, and 1,615 shares remained available for grant.

Equity awards are granted by the Board or the Compensation Committee based on a review of market practices, individual performance, and the overall equity compensation strategy of the Company.

Other Employee Benefits

The Company provides employees, including executives, with benefits that it believes are generally comparable to those offered by other companies in its industry and size. These include:

- Health, dental, and vision insurance

- Life and disability insurance

- Paid time off and holidays

-20-

Perquisites

Perquisites are not a material component of compensation. In general, named executive officers do not receive reimbursements for meals, airlines, and travel costs, other than those costs allowed for all employees. During 2024, our named executive officer did not receive an allowance from the Company or any of the above or a reimbursement for any expense incurred for non-business purposes.

Equity Award Grant Timing

We do not have a written policy in place regarding the timing of the grant and issuance of stock options in relation to the release of material non-public information. Historically, we have granted stock option awards on an annual basis and as may otherwise be deemed appropriate by our Board or compensation committee from time to time based on the facts and circumstances, as applicable. We have not intentionally timed the grant of stock options in anticipation of the release of material nonpublic information, nor have we intentionally timed the release of material nonpublic information based on stock option grant dates. During fiscal year ended April 30, 2025, did not grant stock options (or similar awards) to any of our named executive officers.

Employment Agreements

We currently have employment agreements with Martin Kay and Coreen Kraysler which are described below.

Employment Agreement with Martin Kay

We entered into an employment agreement with Martin Kay on January 3, 2023, pursuant to which we employ Mr. Kay as our Chief Executive Officer (“Kay Employment Agreement”).

The Kraysler Employment Agreement provides for a three-year term. The Kraysler Employment Agreement provides for an annual base salary during the term of the Kraysler Employment Agreement of $96,000, which was increased to $150,000 upon completion of a public offering in July 2022, and increased to $225,000 in January 2023.

The Kraysler Employment Agreement also contains the following material provisions: eligible to participate in all employee fringe benefits and any pension and/or profit share plans; eligible to participate in any medical and health plans; entitled to sick leave, sick pay and disability benefits; entitled to reimbursement for all reasonable and necessary business expenses. Ms. Kraysler agreed to non-compete and non-solicit terms under the Kraysler Employment Agreement.

Potential Payments Upon Termination Or Change In Control

In the event that Ms. Kraysler’s employment is terminated by us for any reason other than “cause” or by Ms. Kraysler for “good reason,” then Ms. Kraysler shall retain the 286 shares of common stock and the 2,857 shares of common stock underlying the stock option grants issued to Ms. Kraysler in February 2022 and January 2023, respectively. In addition, all of the unvested portion of Ms. Kraysler’s stock options shall immediately and fully vest.

The following table sets forth quantitative information with respect to potential payments to be made to Ms. Kraysler upon termination in various circumstances. The potential payments are based on the terms of each of the employment agreements discussed above. For a more detailed description of the Kraysler Employment Agreement, see the “Employment Agreements” section above.

Pay Versus Performance

As required by Section 953(a) of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010 and Item 402(v) of Regulation S-K, we are providing the following information about the relationship between executive compensation and certain financial performance metrics. The disclosure included in this section is prescribed by SEC rules and does not necessarily align with how we or the compensation committee view the link between financial performance and the compensation actually received or realized by our named executive officers. All information provided above under the “Pay Versus Performance” heading will not be deemed to be incorporated by reference into any filing of the Company under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, whether made before or after the date hereof and irrespective of any general incorporation language in any such filing, except to the extent the Company specifically incorporates such information by reference.

The table below presents information on the compensation of CEO and other named executive officers in comparison to certain performance metrics for 2025, 2024 and 2023. Martin Kay has been our CEO since January 3, 2023 and Cecilia Lenk was CEO for all of 2022 and through January 3, 2023. These metrics are not those that the compensation committee uses when setting executive compensation. The use of the term Compensation Actually Paid (CAP) is required by the rules and regulations of the SEC, and under such rules, CAP was calculated by adjusting the Summary Compensation Table, or SCT. Total values for the applicable year as described in the footnotes to the table.

(1)

2023 Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan. In March 2023, stockholders approved the Company’s 2023 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2023 Plan”). The 2023 Plan provides for the award of stock options (incentive and non-qualified), restricted stock awards, restricted stock units, stock appreciation rights, cash incentive awards and other awards to officers, directors, employees, and consultants who provide services to the Company.

The 2023 Plan will be administered by the Board or a committee to which the Board delegates such responsibility (the “Administrator”). The Administrator may interpret the 2023 Plan and may prescribe, amend and rescind rules and make all other determinations necessary or desirable for the administration of the 2023 Plan. Unless sooner terminated, the 2023 Plan will terminate ten years after the effective date of the 2023 Plan. To the extent necessary to preserve the economic intent of an award under the 2023 Plan, following a “change in capitalization”, such other equitable substitutions or adjustments shall be made as may be determined by the Administrator, in its sole discretion.

(2) 2021 Equity Incentive Plan. In November 2021, stockholders approved the Company’s 2021 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2021 Plan”). The 2021 Plan provides for the award of stock options (incentive and nonqualified), restricted stock awards, restricted stock units, stock appreciation rights, performance share awards, stock onuses and other stock-based awards and cash-based incentive awards. An aggregate of [4,286] shares of our common stock is reserved for issuance and available for awards under the Plan, including incentive stock options granted under the 2021 Plan. The administrator of the 2021 Plan may grant awards to any employee, director, consultant or other person providing services to us or our affiliates. As of April 30, 2024, we had awarded an aggregate of 2,671 options to purchase shares of common stock to directors and there remain 1,615 shares for grant under the 2021 Plan.

The 2021 Plan is administered by our Board. The administrator of the 2021 Plan has the authority to determine, within the limits of the express provisions of the 2021 Plan, the individuals to whom awards will be granted, the nature, amount and terms of such awards and the objectives and conditions for earning such awards. Our Board may at any time amend or terminate the 2021 Plan, provided that no such action may be taken that adversely affects any rights or obligations with respect to any awards previously made under the 2021 Plan without the consent of the recipient. No awards may be made under the 2021 Plan after the tenth anniversary of its effective date.

SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT

The following table sets forth information with respect to the beneficial ownership of shares of our Common Stock as of the Record Date by:

●	each person whom we know beneficially owns more than 5% of any class of equity security;

●	each of our directors individually;

●	each of our named executive officers individually; and

●	all of our current directors and executive officers as a group.

We have determined beneficial ownership in accordance with the rules of the SEC. These rules generally attribute beneficial ownership of securities to persons who possess sole or shared voting or investment power with respect to such securities. In addition, pursuant to such rules, we deemed outstanding shares of common stock subject to options or warrants held by that person that are currently exercisable or exercisable within 60 days of the Record Date. We did not deem such shares outstanding, however, for the purpose of computing the percentage ownership of any other person. Except as indicated by the footnotes below, we believe, based on the information furnished to us, that the beneficial owners named in the table below have sole voting and investment power with respect to all shares of our common stock that they beneficially own, subject to applicable community property laws. The inclusion in the table below of any shares deemed beneficially owned does not constitute an admission of beneficial ownership of those shares.

PROPOSAL NO. 2: RATIFICATION OF
INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

Our audit committee has appointed Fruci as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending April 30, 2026 and our Board has directed that management submit the appointment of Fruci as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2026 for ratification by the shareholders at the 2025 Annual Meeting. Representatives of Fruci are expected to be virtually present at the 2025 Annual Meeting, will have an opportunity to make a statement if they so desire, and be available to respond to appropriate questions. Fruci was appointed to serve as our independent registered public accounting firm in 2017.

Shareholder ratification of the appointment of Fruci as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm is not required law. However, our Board is submitting the audit committee’s appointment of Fruci to the shareholders for ratification as a matter of good corporate practice. If the shareholders fail to ratify the appointment, the audit committee will reconsider whether to retain that firm. Even if the appointment is ratified, the audit committee, in its discretion, may direct the appointment of a different independent registered public accounting firm at any time during the year if the audit committee determines that such a change would be in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders.

All Other Fees: All other fees billed by the auditor for products and services not included in the foregoing categories.

Policy on Audit Committee Pre-Approval of Audit and Permissible Non-Audit Services of Independent Auditors

Consistent with SEC policies regarding auditor independence, our board of directors has responsibility for appointing, setting compensation and overseeing the work of the independent auditor. In recognition of this responsibility, the board of directors has established a policy to pre-approve all audit and permissible non-audit services provided by the independent auditor.

Prior to engagement of the independent auditor for the next year’s audit, management will submit an aggregate of services expected to be rendered during that year for each of four categories of services to the board of directors for approval.

1. Audit services include audit work performed in the preparation of financial statements, as well as work that generally only the independent auditor can reasonably be expected to provide, including comfort letters and reviews of our financial statements included in our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q.

2. Audit-Related services are for assurance and related services that are traditionally performed by the independent auditor, including due diligence related to mergers and acquisitions, employee benefit plan audits, and special procedures required to meet certain regulatory requirements.

3. Tax services include all services performed by the independent auditor’s tax personnel except those services specifically related to the audit of the financial statements, and includes fees in the areas of tax compliance, tax planning, and tax advice.

4. Other services are those associated with services not captured in the other categories. We generally do not request such services from the independent auditor.

PROPOSAL NO. 4: EQUITY PLAN AMENDMENTS PROPOSAL

Introduction

On January 3, 2023, our Board adopted our 2023 Plan. The 2023 Plan was approved by the stockholders at our 2023 Annual Meeting of Stockholders on March 28, 2023.

On June 6, 2025, our Board approved a proposed First Amendment to the 2023 Plan (“First Plan Amendment”) and on July 30, 2025 our Board approved a proposed Second Amendment to the 2023 Plan (the “Second Plan Amendment” and together with the First Plan Amendment, the “Plan Amendments”), in each case, subject to, and to be effective upon, the approval of this Proposal 4 by our stockholders at the Annual Meeting. The purpose of the Plan Amendments is to increase the share reserve to 3,500,000 and to modify the evergreen provision such that the number of shares of common stock reserved for issuance and the ISO limit under the 2023 Plan shall be increased on an annual basis, on the first day of each fiscal year beginning with May 1, 2026 and ending with the last May 1 during the initial ten-year term of the Plan, by the lesser of (A) ten percent (10%) of the shares of common stock outstanding (on an as-converted basis, which shall include shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise or conversion of all outstanding securities or rights convertible into or exercisable for shares of common stock, including without limitation, preferred stock, warrants and employee options to purchase any shares of common stock) on the final day of the immediately preceding calendar year; and (B) such lesser number of shares of common stock as determined by the Board, provided that the ISO limit may not be increased under the evergreen by more than 400,000 per year.

Under the 2023 Plan, no shares of our common stock are currently available for grant.

Our administrator may grant incentive stock options (“ISOs”), non-statutory stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units and other stock-based awards to participants to acquire shares of common stock under the 2023 Plan. As of August 4, 2025, subject to the stockholder approval of the option grants set forth below, there are no remaining shares of our common stock available for issuance under the 2023 Plan. If the Plan Amendments are not approved, we may be unable to continue to offer competitive equity-based compensation and would need to consider other compensation alternatives. The increase in the number of shares of common stock available under the 2023 Plan pursuant to the Plan Amendments as described below will allow us to continue to provide equity incentive awards as part of our compensation objectives to attract and retain talented employees and provide them with the right incentives to execute our strategic objectives will maximizing our stockholders’ investment in our company. Our Board believes that the 2023 Plan plays an essential role in providing long-term, performance-based incentives aligned with stockholder interests.

Based solely on the closing price of our common stock as reported on the August 1, 2025, the maximum aggregate market value of the 3,361,398 additional shares that could potentially be issued under the 2023 Plan, as amended by the Plan Amendments, is approximately $11,563,209. The shares available for issuance by us under the 2023 Plan will be authorized but unissued shares. The following table sets forth, as of the Record Date, the approximate number of each class of participants eligible to participate in the 2023 Plan and the basis of such participation.

Class and Basis of Participation		Approximate Number of Class
Employees		20
Directors⁽¹⁾		5
Independent Contractors		16

⁽¹⁾ Two (2) of the five (5) directors are employees.

The table below illustrates our equity use in each of the past three fiscal years:

		Fiscal Year 2025			Fiscal Year 2024			Fiscal Year 2023			Average
A	Total Shares Granted During Fiscal Year(1)		0			0			27,857			9,286

Background Related to Proposed Amendment to the 2023 Plan

We are asking stockholders to approve the Plan Amendments to increase the authorized share reserve by [•] and to modify the evergreen provision such that the number of shares of common stock reserved for issuance and the ISO limit under the 2023 Plan shall be increased on an annual basis, on the first day of each fiscal year beginning with May 1, 2026 and ending with the last May 1 during the initial ten-year term of the Plan, by the lesser of (A) ten percent (10%) of the shares of common stock outstanding (on an as-converted basis, which shall include shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise or conversion of all outstanding securities or rights convertible into or exercisable for shares of common stock, including without limitation, preferred stock, warrants and employee options to purchase any shares of common stock) on the final day of the immediately preceding fiscal year; (B) such lesser number of shares of common stock as determined by the Board, provided that the ISO limit may not be increased under the evergreen by more than 400,000 per year. While our Board and the compensation committee believe that equity and equity-based awards are an important component of our overall compensation program, the compensation committee prioritizes stockholder interests in evaluating awards to be granted to executives and other employees in its administration of the 2023 Plan.

Description of the 2023 Plan, As Amended

The following is a summary of the material features of the 2023 Plan. This summary is qualified in its entirety by the full text of the Plan Amendments, a copy of which is attached to this proxy statement as Appendix A.

Types of Awards. The 2023 Plan provides for the issuance of incentive stock options, non-statutory stock options, stock appreciation rights (“SARs”), restricted stock, restricted stock units (“RSUs”), and other stock-based awards.

Administration. The 2023 Plan will be administered by the Board, or if the Board does not administer the 2023 Plan, a committee or subcommittee of our Board that complies with the applicable requirements of Section 16 of the Exchange Act and any other applicable legal or stock exchange listing requirements (each of the Board or such committee or subcommittee, the “plan administrator”). The plan administrator may interpret the 2023 Plan and may prescribe, amend and rescind rules and make all other determinations necessary or desirable for the administration of the 2023 Plan.

The 2023 Plan permits the plan administrator to select the eligible recipients who will receive awards, to determine the terms and conditions of those awards, including but not limited to the exercise price or other purchase price of an award, the number of shares of common stock or cash or other property subject to an award, the term of an award and the vesting schedule applicable to an award, and to amend the terms and conditions of outstanding awards.

Shares Available; Certain Limitations. The maximum number of shares of common stock reserved and available for issuance under the 2023 Plan shall be equal to the sum of (i) 3,500,000 shares, plus (ii) an annual increase on the first day of each fiscal year beginning with May 1, 2026 and ending with the last May 1 during the initial ten-year term of the 2023 Plan, equal to the lesser of (A) ten percent (10%) of the shares of common stock outstanding (on an as-converted basis, which shall include shares issuable upon the exercise or conversion of all outstanding securities or rights convertible into or exercisable for shares of common stock, including without limitation, preferred stock, warrants and employee options to purchase any shares of common stock) on the final day of the immediately preceding fiscal year and (B) such lesser number of shares of common stock as determined by the Board; provided, that, shares of common stock issued under the 2023 Plan with respect to an exempt award shall not count against such share limit.

No more than 3,500,000 shares of common stock, and as increased on an annual basis, on the first day of each fiscal year beginning with May 1, 2026 and ending with the last May 1 during the initial ten-year term of the Plan, by the lesser of (A) ten percent (10%) of the shares of common stock outstanding (on an as-converted basis, which shall include shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise or conversion of all outstanding securities or rights convertible into or exercisable for shares of common stock, including without limitation, preferred stock, warrants and employee options to purchase any shares of common stock) on the final day of the immediately preceding fiscal year; (B) 400,000 shares of common stock, and (C) such lesser number of shares of common stock as determined by the Board, shall be issued pursuant to the exercise of ISOs.

-31-

New shares reserved for issuance under the 2023 Plan may, in whole or in part, be authorized but unissued shares or shares that shall have been or may be reacquired by the Company in the open market, in private transactions or otherwise. If an award entitles the participant to receive or purchase shares, the number of shares covered by such award or to which such award relates shall be counted on the date of grant of such award against the aggregate number of shares available for granting awards under the 2023 Plan. If any shares subject to an award are forfeited, cancelled, exchanged or surrendered or if an award otherwise terminates or expires without a distribution of shares to the participant, the shares with respect to such award shall, to the extent of any such forfeiture, cancellation, exchange, surrender, termination or expiration, again be available for granting awards under the 2023 Plan. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) any shares reacquired by the Company on the open market or otherwise using cash proceeds from the exercise of stock options; and (ii) shares surrendered or withheld as payment of either the exercise price of an award (including shares otherwise underlying a SAR that are retained by the Company to account for the exercise price of such SAR) and/or withholding taxes in respect of an award shall no longer be available for grant under the 2023 Plan. In addition, (i) to the extent an award is denominated in shares of common stock, but paid or settled in cash, the number of shares of common stock with respect to which such payment or settlement is made shall again be available for grants of awards pursuant to the 2023 Plan and (ii) shares of common stock underlying awards that can only be settled in cash shall not be counted against the aggregate number of shares of common stock available for awards under the 2023 Plan. Upon the exercise of any award granted in tandem with any other awards, such related awards shall be cancelled to the extent of the number of shares as to which the award is exercised and, notwithstanding the foregoing, such number of shares shall no longer be available for grant under the 2023 Plan.

Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock Units. Restricted stock and RSUs may be granted under the 2023 Plan. The plan administrator will determine the purchase price, vesting schedule and performance goals, if any, and any other conditions that apply to a grant of restricted stock and RSUs. If the restrictions, performance goals or other conditions determined by the plan administrator are not satisfied, the restricted stock and RSUs will be forfeited. Subject to the provisions of the 2023 Plan and the applicable award agreement, the plan administrator has the sole discretion to provide for the lapse of restrictions in installments.

Unless the applicable award agreement provides otherwise, participants with restricted stock will generally have all of the rights of a shareholder; provided that dividends will only be paid if and when the underlying restricted stock vests. RSUs will not be entitled to dividends prior to vesting, but may be entitled to receive dividend equivalents if the award agreement provides for them. The rights of participants granted restricted stock or RSUs upon the termination of employment or service to us will be set forth in the award agreement.

Options. Incentive stock options and non-statutory stock options may be granted under the 2023 Plan. An “incentive stock option” means an option intended to qualify for tax treatment applicable to incentive stock options under Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code. A “non-statutory stock option” is an option that is not subject to statutory requirements and limitations required for certain tax advantages that are allowed under specific provisions of the Internal Revenue Code. A non-statutory stock option under the 2023 Plan is referred to for federal income tax purposes as a “non-qualified” stock option. Each option granted under the Plan will be designated as a non-qualified stock option or an incentive stock option. At the discretion of the plan administrator, incentive stock options may be granted only to our employees, employees of our “parent corporation” (as such term is defined in Section 424(e) of the Code) or employees of our subsidiaries.

The exercise period of an option may not exceed ten years from the date of grant and the exercise price may not be less than 100% of the fair market value of a share of common stock on the date the option is granted (110% of fair market value in the case of incentive stock options granted to ten percent stockholders). The exercise price for shares of common stock subject to an option may be paid in cash, or as determined by the plan administrator in its sole discretion, (i) through any cashless exercise procedure approved by the plan administrator (including the withholding of shares of common stock otherwise issuable upon exercise), (ii) by tendering unrestricted shares of common stock owned by the participant, (iii) with any other form of consideration approved by the plan administrator and permitted by applicable law or (iv) by any combination of these methods. The option holder will have no rights to dividends or distributions or other rights of a shareholder with respect to the shares of common stock subject to an option until the option holder has given written notice of exercise and paid the exercise price and applicable withholding taxes.

-32-

In the event of a participant’s termination of employment or service, the participant may exercise his or her option (to the extent vested as of such date of termination) for such period of time as specified in his or her option agreement.

Stock Appreciation Rights. SARs may be granted either alone (a “Free-Standing Right”) or in conjunction with all or part of any option granted under the 2023 Plan (a “Related Right”). A Free-Standing Right will entitle its holder to receive, at the time of exercise, an amount per share up to the excess of the fair market value (at the date of exercise) of a share of common stock over the base price of the Free-Standing Right (which shall be no less than 100% of the fair market value of the related shares of common stock on the date of grant) multiplied by the number of shares in respect of which the SAR is being exercised. A Related Right will entitle its holder to receive, at the time of exercise of the SAR and surrender of the applicable portion of the related option, an amount per share up to the excess of the fair market value (at the date of exercise) of a share of common stock over the exercise price of the related option multiplied by the number of shares in respect of which the SAR is being exercised. The exercise period of a Free-Standing Right may not exceed ten years from the date of grant. The exercise period of a Related Right will also expire upon the expiration of its related option.

The holder of a SAR will have no rights to dividends or any other rights of a stockholder with respect to the shares of common stock subject to the SAR until the holder has given written notice of exercise and paid the exercise price and applicable withholding taxes.

In the event of an participant’s termination of employment or service, the holder of a SAR may exercise his or her SAR (to the extent vested as of such date of termination) for such period of time as specified in his or her SAR agreement.

Other Stock-Based Awards. The plan administrator may grant other stock-based awards under the 2023 Plan, valued in whole or in part by reference to, or otherwise based on, shares of common stock. The plan administrator will determine the terms and conditions of these awards, including the number of shares of common stock to be granted pursuant to each award, the manner in which the award will be settled, and the conditions to the vesting and payment of the award (including the achievement of performance goals). The rights of participants granted other share-based awards upon the termination of employment or service to us will be set forth in the applicable award agreement. In the event that a bonus is granted in the form of shares of common stock, the shares of common stock constituting such bonus shall, as determined by the plan administrator, be evidenced in uncertificated form or by a book entry record or a certificate issued in the name of the participant to whom such grant was made and delivered to such participant as soon as practicable after the date on which such bonus is payable. Any dividend or dividend equivalent award issued hereunder shall be subject to the same restrictions, conditions and risks of forfeiture as apply to the underlying award.

Equitable Adjustment and Treatment of Outstanding Awards Upon a Change in Control

Equitable Adjustments. In the event of a merger, consolidation, reclassification, recapitalization, spin-off, spin-out, repurchase, reorganization, special or extraordinary dividend or other extraordinary distribution (whether in the form of shares of common stock, cash or other property), combination, exchange of shares, or other change in corporate structure affecting our shares of common stock, an equitable substitution or proportionate adjustment shall be made in (i) the aggregate number and kind of securities reserved for issuance under the 2023 Plan; (ii) the kind and number of securities subject to, and the exercise price of, any outstanding options and SARs granted under the 2023 Plan; (iii) the kind, number and purchase price of shares of common stock, or the amount of cash or amount or type of property, subject to outstanding restricted stock, RSUs and other share-based awards granted under the 2023 Plan; and (iv) the terms and conditions of any outstanding awards (including any applicable performance targets); provided, however, that any fractional shares resulting from the adjustment shall be eliminated. Equitable substitutions or adjustments other than those listed above may also be made as determined by the plan administrator. In addition, the plan administrator may, subject in all events to the requirements of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code, may terminate all outstanding awards for the payment of cash or in-kind consideration having an aggregate fair market value equal to the excess of the fair market value of the shares of common stock, cash or other property covered by such awards over the aggregate exercise price, if any, of such awards, but if the exercise price of any outstanding award is equal to or greater than the fair market value of the shares of common stock, cash or other property covered by such award, the plan administrator may cancel the award without the payment of any consideration to the participant. With respect to awards subject to foreign laws, adjustments will be made in compliance with applicable requirements. Except to the extent determined by the plan administrator, adjustments to ISOs will be made only to the extent not constituting a “modification” within the meaning of Section 424(h)(3) of the Code.

-33-

Change in Control. The 2023 Plan provides that, unless otherwise determined by the plan administrator and evidenced in an award agreement, if a “change in control” (as defined below) occurs and a participant is employed by us or any of our affiliates immediately prior to the consummation of the change in control, then the plan administrator, in its sole and absolute discretion, may (i) provide that any unvested or unexercisable portion of an award carrying a right to exercise will become fully vested and exercisable; and (ii) cause the restrictions, deferral limitations, payment conditions and forfeiture conditions applicable to any award granted under the 2023 Plan to lapse, and the awards will be deemed fully vested and any performance conditions imposed with respect to such awards will be deemed to be fully achieved at target performance levels. The plan administrator shall have discretion in connection with such change in control to provide that all outstanding and unexercised options and SARs shall expire upon the consummation of such change in control.

For purposes of the 2023 Plan, a “change in control” means, in summary, the occurrence of any of the following events: (i) a person or entity becomes the beneficial owner of more than 50% of our voting power of the our then outstanding securities; (ii) the date on which individuals who constitute the Board as of the effective date of the 2023 Plan and any new director (other than a director whose initial assumption of office is in connection with an actual or threatened election contest, including, but not limited to, a consent solicitation, relating to the election of our directors) whose appointment or election by the Board or nomination for election by our stockholders was approved or recommended by a vote of at least two-thirds (2/3) of the directors then still in office who either were directors on the effective date of the 2023 Plan or whose appointment, election or nomination for election was previously so approved or recommended cease for any reason to constitute a majority of the number of directors serving on the Board; (iii) a merger or consolidation of us or any of our subsidiaries with any other corporation or entity, other than (A) a merger or consolidation that results in our voting securities continuing to represent 50% or more of the combined voting power of the surviving entity or its parent and our Board immediately prior to the merger or consolidation continuing to represent at least a majority of the board of directors of the surviving entity or its parent or (B) a merger or consolidation effected to implement a recapitalization in which no person is or becomes the beneficial owner of our voting securities representing more than 50% of our combined voting power; or (iv) shareholder approval of a plan of our complete liquidation or dissolution or the consummation of an agreement for the sale or disposition of substantially all of our assets, other than (A) a sale or disposition to an entity, more than 50% of the combined voting power of which is owned by our stockholders in substantially the same proportions as their ownership of us immediately prior to such sale; or (B) a sale or disposition to an entity controlled by the Board.

Tax Withholding

Each participant will be required to make arrangements satisfactory to the plan administrator regarding payment of up to the maximum statutory tax rates in the participant’s applicable jurisdiction with respect to any award granted under the 2023 Plan, as determined by us. We have the right, to the extent permitted by applicable law, to deduct any such taxes from any payment of any kind otherwise due to the participant. With the approval of the plan administrator, the participant may satisfy the foregoing requirement by either electing to have us withhold from delivery of shares of common stock, cash or other property, as applicable, or by delivering already owned unrestricted shares of common stock, in each case, having a value not exceeding the applicable taxes to be withheld and applied to the tax obligations. We may also use any other method of obtaining the necessary payment or proceeds, as permitted by applicable law, to satisfy our withholding obligation with respect to any award.

Amendment and Termination of the 2023 Plan

The 2023 Plan provides the Board with authority to amend, alter or terminate the 2023 Plan, but no such action may impair the rights of any participant with respect to outstanding awards without the participant’s consent. The plan administrator may amend an award, prospectively or retroactively, but no such amendment may materially impair the rights of any participant without the participant’s consent. Shareholder approval of any such action will be obtained if required to comply with applicable law. The 2023 Plan will terminate on the tenth anniversary of the effective date of the 2023 Plan (although awards granted before that time will remain outstanding in accordance with their terms).

-34-

Clawback

If we are required to prepare an accounting restatement of our financial statements due to our material noncompliance (whether one occurrence or a series of occurrences of noncompliance) with any financial reporting requirement under the securities laws, then the plan administrator may require any Section 10D-1(d) of the Exchange Act “executive officer” to repay or forfeit to us that part of the cash or equity incentive compensation received by that Section 10D-1(d) executive officer during the preceding three (3) completed fiscal years that the plan administrator determines was in excess of the amount that such Section 10D-1(d) executive officer would have received had such cash or equity incentive compensation been calculated based on the restated amounts reported in the restated financial statement. The plan administrator may take into account any factors it deems reasonable in determining whether to seek recoupment of previously paid cash or equity incentive compensation and how much of such compensation to recoup from each Section 10D-1(d) executive officer (which shall be made irrespective of any fault, misconduct or responsibility of each Section 10D-1(d) executive officer). The amount and form of the incentive compensation to be recouped shall be determined by the plan administrator in its sole and absolute discretion, and calculated on a pre-tax basis. In addition, any award which is subject to recovery under any applicable laws, government regulation or stock exchange listing requirement (or any policy adopted by the Company pursuant to any such applicable law, government regulation or stock exchange listing requirement) will be subject to such deductions and clawback as may be required to be made pursuant to such applicable law, government regulation or stock exchange listing requirement (or any policy adopted by the Company pursuant to any such applicable law, government regulation or stock exchange listing requirement).

US Federal Income Tax Consequences

The following is a summary of certain United States federal income tax consequences of awards under the 2023 Plan. It does not purport to be a complete description of all applicable rules, and those rules (including those summarized here) are subject to change.

Non-Qualified Stock Options

A participant who has been granted a non-qualified stock option will not recognize taxable income upon the grant of a non-qualified stock option. Rather, at the time of exercise of such non-qualified stock option, the participant will recognize ordinary income for income tax purposes in an amount equal to the excess of the fair market value of the shares of common stock purchased over the exercise price. We generally will be entitled to a tax deduction at such time and in the same amount that the participant recognizes ordinary income. If shares of common stock acquired upon exercise of a non-qualified stock option are later sold or exchanged, then the difference between the amount received upon such sale or exchange and the fair market value of such shares on the date of such exercise will generally be taxable as long-term or short-term capital gain or loss (if the shares are a capital asset of the participant) depending upon the length of time such shares were held by the participant.

Incentive Stock Options

In general, no taxable income is realized by a participant upon the grant of an ISO. If shares of common stock are purchased by a participant, or stock options, pursuant to the exercise of an ISO granted under the 2023 Plan and the participant does not dispose of the stock options within the two-year period after the date of grant or within one year after the receipt of such stock options by the participant, such disposition a disqualifying disposition, then, generally (1) the participant will not realize ordinary income upon exercise and (2) upon sale of such stock options, any amount realized in excess of the exercise price paid for the stock option will be taxed to such participant as capital gain (or loss). The amount by which the fair market value of the share of common stock on the exercise date of an ISO exceeds the purchase price generally will constitute an item which increases the participant’s “alternative minimum taxable income.” If stock options acquired upon the exercise of an ISO are disposed of in a disqualifying disposition, the participant generally would include in ordinary income in the year of disposition an amount equal to the excess of the fair market value of the stock option at the time of exercise (or, if less, the amount realized on the disposition of the stock option), over the exercise price paid for the stock option. Subject to certain exceptions, an option generally will not be treated as an ISO if it is exercised more than three months following termination of employment. If an ISO is exercised at a time when it no longer qualifies as an ISO, such option will be treated as a nonqualified stock option as discussed above. In general, we will receive an income tax deduction at the same time and in the same amount as the participant recognizes ordinary income.

Stock Appreciation Rights

A participant who is granted an SAR generally will not recognize ordinary income upon receipt of the SAR. Rather, at the time of exercise of such SAR, the participant will recognize ordinary income for income tax purposes in an amount equal to the value of any cash received and the fair market value on the date of exercise of any shares of common stock received. We generally will be entitled to a tax deduction at such time and in the same amount, if any, that the participant recognizes as ordinary income. The participant’s tax basis in any shares of common stock received upon exercise of an SAR will be the fair market value of the shares of common stock on the date of exercise, and if the shares are later sold or exchanged, then the difference between the amount received upon such sale or exchange and the fair market value of such shares on the date of exercise will generally be taxable as long-term or short-term capital gain or loss (if the shares are a capital asset of the participant) depending upon the length of time such shares were held by the participant.

Restricted Stock

A participant generally will not be taxed upon the grant of restricted stock, but rather will recognize ordinary income in an amount equal to the fair market value of the restricted stock at the earlier of the time the shares become transferable or are no longer subject to a substantial risk of forfeiture (within the meaning of the Code). We generally will be entitled to a deduction at the time when, and in the amount that, the participant recognizes ordinary income on account of the lapse of the restrictions. A participant’s tax basis in the shares of common stock will equal their fair market value at the time the restrictions lapse, and the participant’s holding period for capital gains purposes will begin at that time. Any cash dividends paid on the shares of common stock before the restrictions lapse will be taxable to the participant as additional compensation and not as dividend income, unless the individual has made an election under Section 83(b) of the Code. Under Section 83(b) of the Code, a participant may elect to recognize ordinary income at the time the restricted stock are awarded in an amount equal to their fair market value at that time, notwithstanding the fact that such stock is subject to restrictions or transfer and a substantial risk of forfeiture. If such an election is made, no additional taxable income will be recognized by such participant at the time the restrictions lapse, the participant will have a tax basis in the shares of common stock equal to their fair market value on the date of their award, and the participant’s holding period for capital gains purposes will begin at that time. We generally will be entitled to a tax deduction at the time when, and to the extent that, ordinary income is recognized by such participant.

Restricted Stock Units

In general, the grant of RSUs will not result in income for the participant or in a tax deduction for us. Upon the settlement of such an award in cash or shares of common stock, the participant will recognize ordinary income equal to the aggregate value of the payment received, and we generally will be entitled to a tax deduction at the same time and in the same amount.

Other Awards

With respect to other stock-based awards, generally when the participant receives payment in respect of the award, the amount of cash and/or the fair market value of any shares of common stock or other property received will be ordinary income to the participant, and we generally will be entitled to a tax deduction at the same time and in the same amount.

New Plan Benefits

Future grants under the 2023 Plan will be made at the discretion of the plan administrator and, accordingly, are not yet determinable. In addition, benefits under the 2023 Plan will depend on a number of factors, including the fair market value of our shares of common stock on future dates and the exercise decisions made by participants. Consequently, at this time, it is not possible to determine the future benefits that might be received by participants receiving discretionary grants under the 2023 Plan. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the following option awards were made, subject to the approval of the Plan Amendments. All of the below listed option awards were granted with the exercise prices of $2.68 and $3.39 as listed in the table below. All of the below listed option awards also have an expiration date of June 8, 2035, except for 160,000 options to directors which have an expiration date of July 31, 2035. In addition to the option grants listed in the table below, option grants were also made to advisory board members with a total of 863,722 shares of common stock, in the aggregate, underlying such option grants which options have an exercise price of .

PROPOSAL 5: AUTHORIZATION TO REINCORPORATE THE COMPANY IN THE STATE OF NEVADA

Our Board of Directors has approved and recommends to the stockholders a proposal to change the Company’s state of incorporation from the State of Utah to the State of Nevada (the “Reincorporation”). If our stockholders approve the proposal, we will effect the Reincorporation by converting (the “Conversion”) the corporation as provided in the Utah Revised Business Corporation statutes (the “URBC”) and the Nevada Revised Statutes (the “NRS”). For the purposes of this proposal, we sometimes refer to the Company as “Netcapital-UT” prior to the Reincorporation and “Netcapital-NV” after the Reincorporation. Reincorporation in Nevada will not result in a material change in our business, management, assets, liabilities or net worth and will allow us to take advantage of certain provisions of the corporate and tax laws of Nevada.

Reasons for the Reincorporation in Nevada

Our Board of Directors believes a reincorporation in Nevada is in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders and will provide flexibility for both our management and business. For many years, Nevada has followed a policy of encouraging incorporation in Nevada and, in furtherance of that policy, has adopted comprehensive, modern and flexible corporate laws that are periodically updated and revised to meet changing business needs. As a result, many major corporations have initially chosen Nevada for their domicile or have subsequently reincorporated in Nevada in a manner similar to what we have proposed. Because of Nevada’s significance as the state of incorporation for many major corporations, the Nevada judiciary has become particularly familiar with matters of corporate law, and a substantial body of court decisions has developed interpreting Nevada’s corporation laws. As a result, Nevada corporate law has been, and is likely to continue to be, interpreted and explained in a number of significant court decisions, a circumstance which will provide greater predictability with respect to our legal affairs.

The Reincorporation is not being effected to prevent a change in control, nor is it in response to any present attempt known to our Board to acquire control of the Company or obtain representation on our Board. Nevertheless, certain effects of the proposed reincorporation may be considered to have anti-takeover implications by virtue of being subject to Nevada law. For a discussion of differences between the laws of Utah and Nevada, including differences that may have anti-takeover implications, see “Comparative Rights of Stockholders Before and After the Reincorporation” below.

Material Terms of the Conversion

The process for reincorporating the Company from Utah to Nevada calls for the articles/statement of conversion to be filed with the Utah Secretary of State and for the Nevada articles of incorporation and articles of conversion to be filed with the Nevada Secretary of State at approximately the time desired for the Reincorporation to take effect.

The Plan of Conversion

The Reincorporation will be effected pursuant to the plan of conversion to be entered into by the Company (the “Plan of Conversion”). The plan of conversion provides that the Company will convert into a Nevada corporation, which will continue with all of the assets, rights, privileges and powers of Netcapital-UT, and all property owned by Netcapital-UT, all debts due to Netcapital-UT, as well as all other causes of action belonging to Netcapital-UT immediately prior to the conversion, remaining vested in Netcapital-NV following the conversion. Netcapital-NV will remain as the same entity following the conversion. The directors and officers of Netcapital-UT immediately prior to the conversion will be the directors and officers of Netcapital-NV. The Plan of Conversion is attached hereto as Appendix B.

Pursuant to the Reincorporation, Netcapital-NV will assume all of Netcapital-UT’s obligations related to convertible equity securities and other rights to purchase Netcapital-UT Common Stock. Netcapital-UT’s outstanding convertible and exercisable securities consist of warrants and options to purchase Netcapital-UT Common Stock. Each outstanding warrant and option to purchase shares of Netcapital-UT Common Stock will be converted into a warrant and option to purchase a number of shares of Netcapital-NV Common Stock on the same terms and conditions as in effect immediately prior to the Reincorporation.

-39-

Effect of Vote for the Reincorporation

A vote in favor of the Reincorporation proposal is a vote to approve the plan of conversion and therefore the Reincorporation. A vote in favor of the Reincorporation proposal is also effectively a vote in favor of the Nevada articles of incorporation and bylaws.

If the Reincorporation proposal fails to obtain the requisite vote for approval, the Reincorporation will not be consummated and the Company will continue to be incorporated in Utah and be subject to the Company’s existing Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws.

Effective Time

If the Reincorporation proposal is approved, the Reincorporation will become effective upon the filing of, and at the date and time specified in (as applicable), the articles/statement of conversion filed with the Secretary of State of Utah and the articles of conversion and articles of incorporation are filed with the Secretary of State of Nevada, in each case, upon acceptance thereof by the Nevada Secretary of State and the Utah Secretary of State. If the Reincorporation proposal is approved, it is anticipated that the board of directors will cause the Reincorporation to be effected as soon as reasonably practicable. However, the Reincorporation may be delayed by the board of directors or the plan of conversion may be terminated and abandoned by action of the board of directors at any time prior to the effective time of the Reincorporation, whether before or after the approval by the Company’s stockholders, if the board of directors determines for any reason that the consummation of the Reincorporation should be delayed or would be inadvisable or not in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders, as the case may be.

Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences of the Reincorporation

The following is a discussion of the material U.S. federal income tax consequences of the Reincorporation to U.S. holders (as defined below). This discussion does not purport to be a complete analysis of all the potential U.S. federal income tax consequences, and does not describe any state, local, or non-U.S. income, estate, gift, or other tax consequences, of the Reincorporation. This discussion is based upon current provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), current, temporary and proposed Treasury regulations and judicial and administrative decisions and rulings as of the date hereof, all of which are subject to change (possibly with retroactive effect) and all of which are subject to differing interpretations. This discussion is limited to U.S. holders that hold our Common Stock as a “capital asset” within the meaning of Section 1221 of the Code (generally, property held for investment). This discussion does not address all aspects of U.S. federal income taxation that may be relevant to a U.S. holder’s particular circumstances or to persons subject to special treatment under U.S. federal income tax laws, including, without limitation, banks and other financial institutions, insurance companies, mutual funds, regulated investment companies, real estate investment trusts, cooperatives, tax-exempt organizations, brokers, dealers or traders in securities, persons holding shares of our Common Stock as part of a hedge, straddle, or other risk reduction strategy or as part of a conversion transaction or other integrated investment, U.S. expatriates, U.S. holders whose functional currency is not the U.S. dollar, persons subject to the alternative minimum tax, non-U.S. persons, partnerships or other pass-through entities or arrangements for U.S. federal income tax purposes (or holders of interests in such entities or arrangements), and persons who hold or receive our Common Stock pursuant to the exercise of any employee stock option or otherwise as compensation. No ruling will be sought from the Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”) with respect to the U.S. federal income tax consequences of the Reincorporation, and no assurance can be given that the IRS will not take a contrary position to the U.S. federal income tax consequences described below or that any such contrary position will not be sustained by a court.

For purposes of this discussion, a “U.S. holder” is a beneficial owner of our Common Stock, that, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, is (1) an individual who is a citizen or resident of the United States, (2) a corporation (or other entity taxable as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes) that is created or organized under the laws of the United States, any state thereof, or the District of Columbia, (3) an estate, the income of which is subject to U.S. federal income tax regardless of its source, or (4) a trust (A) if a court within the United States is able to exercise primary supervision of the trust and one or more “United States persons” (within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code) have the authority to control all substantial decisions of the trust, or (B) that has a valid election in effect under applicable Treasury regulations to be treated as a United States person for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

-40-

If a partnership (including, for this purpose, any entity or arrangement treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes) is a beneficial owner of our Common Stock, the U.S. federal income tax consequences to a partner in the partnership generally will depend on the status of the partner and the activities of the partnership. Accordingly, a holder of our Common Stock that is a partnership, and the partners in such partnership, should consult their tax advisors regarding the U.S. federal income tax consequences of the Reincorporation.

The Reincorporation is intended to qualify as a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a)(1)(F) of the Code. Assuming that the Reincorporation qualifies as a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a)(1)(F) of the Code:

	●	U.S. holders will not recognize any gain or loss as a result of the Reincorporation;

	●	the aggregate tax basis of the shares of Netcapital-NV Common Stock deemed received in the Reincorporation by a U.S. holder will be equal to the U.S. holder’s aggregate tax basis of the shares of Netcapital-UT Common Stock converted therefor;

	●	the holding period of the shares of Netcapital-NV Common Stock deemed received in the Reincorporation by a U.S. holder will include the U.S. holder’s holding period of the shares of Netcapital-UT common stock converted therefor; and

	●	no gain or loss will be recognized by the Company as a result of the Reincorporation.

THE DISCUSSION SET FORTH ABOVE IS FOR INFORMATIONAL PURPOSES ONLY AND IS NOT INTENDED TO BE, NOT SHOULD IT BE CONSTRUED TO BE, LEGAL OR TAX ADVICE. MOREOVER, THIS DISCUSSION DOES NOT ADDRESS ANY NON-INCOME, STATE, LOCAL, OR NON-U.S. TAX CONSEQUENCES OF THE REINCORPORATION. ALL HOLDERS OF THE COMPANY COMMON STOCK SHOULD CONSULT THEIR TAX ADVISORS REGARDING THE TAX CONSEQUENCES OF THE REINCORPORATION TO THEIR PARTICULAR CIRCUMSTANCES, INCLUDING THE EFFECTS OF U.S. FEDERAL, STATE AND LOCAL, NON-U.S. AND OTHER TAX LAWS.

Securities Act Consequences

The shares of Netcapital-NV common stock to be issued in exchange for shares of our common stock are not being registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). In that respect, the Netcapital-NV is relying on Rule 145(a)(2) under the Securities Act, which provides that a conversion that has as its sole purpose a change in a corporation’s domicile does not involve the sale of securities for purposes of the Securities Act. After the Reincorporation, Netcapital-NV will be a publicly held company, and it will file with the SEC and provide to its stockholders the same type of information that we have previously filed and provided. Stockholders, whose shares of our common stock are freely tradable before the Reincorporation will continue to have freely tradable shares of Netcapital-NV common stock. Stockholders holding restricted shares of Netcapital-NV common stock will be subject to the same restrictions on transfer as those to which their present shares of our common stock are subject. In summary, Netcapital-NV and its stockholders will be in the same respective positions under the federal securities laws after the Reincorporation as the Company and our stockholders prior to the Reincorporation.

No Exchange of Stock Certificates Required

Stockholders are not required to exchange their stock certificates for new certificates representing shares of Netcapital-NV common stock. New stock certificates representing shares of Netcapital-NV common stock will not be issued to a stockholder until such stockholder submits one or more existing certificates for transfer, whether pursuant to a sale or other disposition. However, stockholders (at their option and at their expense) may exchange their stock certificates for new certificates representing shares of Netcapital-NV common stock, as the case may be, following the Effective Time of the Conversion.

No Dissenters’ Rights

Under the URBC, our stockholders are not entitled to dissenter’s rights with respect to the Reincorporation described in this Proposal 5.

-41-

Potential Disadvantages of the Reincorporation

The Reincorporation may be disadvantageous to shareholders, among other reasons, Nevada requires a higher voting threshold for removing directors than Utah, Nevada has higher requirements of shareholders for inspection of corporate records and Nevada has less extensive shareholder dissenter and appraisal rights than Utah.

Comparative Rights of Stockholders Before and After the Reincorporation

Upon consummation of the Reincorporation, the outstanding shares of our common stock will be converted into shares of Netcapital-NV’s common stock. Consequently, our common stockholders, whose rights as stockholders are currently governed by the URBC and the Company’s current Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws, will become common stockholders of Netcapital-NV (as the surviving corporation) whose rights will be governed by the NRS and the Articles of Incorporation and the Bylaws of Netcapital-NV, which are attached hereto as Appendix C and Appendix D, respectively.

Because of differences between the NRS and the URBC, as well as differences between the Company’s governing documents before and after the Reincorporation, the Reincorporation will effect certain changes in the rights of the Company’s stockholders. Summarized below are the most significant provisions of the NRS and URBC, along with the differences between the rights of the stockholders of the Company before and after the Reincorporation that will result from the differences among the NRS and the URBC and the differences between Netcapital-UT’s articles of incorporation and bylaws and Netcapital-NV’s articles of incorporation and bylaws. The summary below is not an exhaustive list of all differences or a complete description of the differences described, and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the NRS, the URBC, Netcapital-UT’s articles of incorporation and Netcapital-UT’s bylaws and Netcapital-NV’s articles of incorporation, Netcapital-NV’s bylaws.

Provisions	Netcapital-UT (Utah law)	NetCapital-NV (Nevada law)
*Action by Shareholders without a Meeting*	URBC provides that unless otherwise provided in a corporation’s articles of incorporation, any action which may be taken at any annual or special meeting of shareholders may be taken without a meeting and without prior notice, if one or more consents in writing, setting forth the action so taken, shall be signed by the holders of outstanding shares having not less than the minimum number of votes that would be necessary to authorize or take the action at a meeting at which all shares entitled to vote thereon were present and voted.Our current articles of incorporation allow for any action which may be taken at any annual or special meeting of stockholders to be taken without a meeting and without prior notice if one or more consents in writing setting forth the action so taken are signed by the holders of outstanding shares having not less than the minimum number of votes necessary to authorize or take the action at a meeting..	Consistent with the NRS, our Nevada Articles of Incorporation will provide that any action required or permitted to be taken by the shareholders must be effected at a duly called meeting of such stockholder upon prior notice in the manner provided by our Nevada Bylaws.

*Removal of Directors*	The shareholders may remove one or more directors with or without cause unless the articles of incorporation provide that directors may be removed only for cause. If cumulative voting is in effect, a director may not be removed if the number of votes sufficient to elect the director under cumulative voting is voted against removal. If cumulative voting is not in effect, a director may be removed only if the number of votes cast to remove the director exceeds the number of votes cast against removal. A director may be removed by the shareholders only at a meeting called for the purpose of removing the director and the meeting notice must state that purpose, or that one of the purposes of the meeting is removal of the director. Our current articles of incorporation do not provide any limitation on removal of directors.	Under Nevada law, any one or all of the directors of a corporation may be removed by the vote of the holders of not less than two-thirds of the voting power of a corporation’s issued and outstanding stock. Nevada does not distinguish between removal of directors with or without cause.

-42-

*Indemnification*	A corporation may indemnify directors if they acted in good faith, reasonably believed their actions were in the corporation’s best interests, and had no reasonable cause to believe their conduct was unlawful, except in cases of liability to the corporation or personal benefit. Unless limited by the articles of incorporation, directors and officers who successfully defend themselves in proceedings are entitled to mandatory indemnification for reasonable expenses. Corporations may advance expenses to directors involved in proceedings if they affirm their good faith belief in meeting conduct standards, agree to repay if those standards are not met, and a determination is made that indemnification is not precluded. Unless the articles of incorporation provide otherwise, a director or officer may apply to a court for indemnification. Additionally, a corporation may indemnify and advance expenses to officers, employees, fiduciaries, or agents to the same extent as directors, and to a greater extent if not inconsistent with public policy and if provided by the corporation’s articles of incorporation, bylaws, board actions, or contracts Our current articles of incorporation do not require the Company to indemnity our officers and directors.	Consistent with the NRS, our Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws will provide that our officers and directors are to be indemnified to the fullest extent permitted by Nevada law.

Notice of Adjournment and Other Actions	The URBC provide that notice of shareholder meeting be given not less than 10, nor more than 60 days prior to the meeting. If a shareholder meeting is adjourned for more than 30 days, notice of the adjourned meeting must be given pursuant to the URBC requirements to shareholders of record who are entitled to vote at the meeting.	The NRS provide that notice of shareholder meetings be given not less than 10, nor more than 60 days prior to the meeting. If a shareholder meeting is adjourned (a) for more than 60 days (in which case a new record date is to be fixed by the Board of the company), notice shall be given to record holders as of the new record date, or (b) for less than 60 days but to a date, time or location uncertain, then an additional notice of the date, time and location of the reconvened meeting shall be given to the original shareholders of record.

*Record Date*	The URBC provide the record date for determining shareholders entitled to notice of and to vote at an annual or special shareholders’ meeting is primarily fixed in the bylaws. If it’s not established in the bylaws, the board of directors may establish the record date. If neither the bylaws nor the board of directors establish a record date, the statutory default is the close of business on the day before the first notice is delivered to shareholders. A record date may not be more than 70 days before the meeting or action requiring determination of shareholders. A determination of shareholders entitled to notice of or to vote at a shareholders’ meeting is effective for any adjournment of the meeting unless the board of directors fixes a new record date, which it must do if the meeting is adjourned to a date more than 120 days after the date fixed for the original meeting.	The NRS permit the Board of Directors to set a record date for shareholders entitled to vote at any shareholder meeting which record date is not to be more than 60 days nor less than 10 days before the meeting. In the event action is to be taken by written consent, the Board may adopt a record date for such consent no sooner than the date on which the Board takes action or later than the date 10 days following the Board action, or if no record date is determined by the Board, the record date for the action by written consent will be the date on which Board approval of the matter was obtained, or if no Board approval was required, the first date on which an action on such matter is delivered by a shareholder.

-43-

*Amendment to the Articles of Incorporation*	In accordance with URBC, generally, amendments to the Utah Articles of Incorporation require that the board of directors must recommend the amendment to the shareholders, must give notice of the annual or special shareholders’ meeting to approve the amendment along with a copy of summary of the proposed amendment, and the shareholders entitled to vote on the amendment must approve the amendment.	In accordance with the NRS, amendments to the Nevada Articles of Incorporation generally require that the Board adopt a resolution setting forth the amendment and submitting it to a vote of the shareholders (i.e., shareholders are not entitled to enact an amendment to the Nevada Articles of Incorporation without any Board action).

*Amendment to the Bylaws*	Under URBC, a corporation’s board of directors may amend the corporation’s Bylaws at any time, except to the extent that the articles of incorporation, the bylaws, or URBC reserve this power exclusively to the shareholders, in whole or part. A corporation’s shareholders may amend the corporation’s bylaws at any time, even though the bylaws may also be amended at any time by the board of directors.	The shareholders of a Nevada company may adopt, amend or repeal its Bylaws. Our Nevada Articles of Incorporation provide that the Board also may amend, restate or repeal its Bylaws. The fact that such power has been so conferred upon the Board does not divest the shareholders of the power, nor limit the shareholders’ power to adopt, amend or repeal Bylaws.

*Dividends*	Unless the articles of incorporation provide otherwise, a dividend of shares may be issued pro rata to the shareholders of one or more classes or series of shares. Shares of one class or series may not be issued as a share dividend in respect of shares of another class or series unless the articles of incorporation so authorize, the majority of the votes entitled to be cast by the outstanding shares of the class or series to be issued approve the issue, or there are no outstanding share of the class or series to be issued. Our current articles of incorporation and bylaws do not limit the power to amend the bylaws to the stockholders, the bylaws may be amended by the board of directors without stockholder consent. A board of directors may authorize and the corporation may make distributions to its shareholders subject to any restriction in the articles of incorporation except that no distribution may be made if, after giving it effect, the corporation would not be able to pay its debts as they become due in the usual course of business or if the corporation’s total assets would be less than the sum of its total liabilities plus the amount that would be needed if the corporation were to be dissolved at the time of distribution, to satisfy the preferential rights upon dissolution of shareholders who preferential rights are superior to those receiving the distribution.	The Articles of Incorporation of a Nevada company permit the payment of dividends on its outstanding shares in all instances other than where the Corporation would be unable to pay its debts as they become due in the usual course of business.

-44-

*Corporate Records (Form of Records)*	A corporation shall keep a copy of the following records at its principal office: (a) its articles of incorporation currently in effect; (b) its bylaws currently in effect; (c) the minutes of all shareholders’ meetings, and records of all action taken by shareholders without a meeting, for the past three years; (d) all written communications within the past three years to shareholders as a group or to the holders of any class or series of shares as a group; (e) a list of the names and business addresses of its current officers and directors; (f) its most recent annual report delivered to the division under URBC; and (g) all financial statements prepared for periods ending during the last three years that a shareholder could request under URBC.	The NRS requires that certified copies of the Corporation’s Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws and a copy of its stock ledger be kept at the offices of the Corporation’s resident agent in the State of Nevada.

*Examination of Books and Records*	A shareholder or director of a corporation is entitled to inspect and copy the aforementioned records, during regular business hours at the corporation’s principal office, if they give the corporation written notice of the demand at least five business days before the date on which they wish to inspect and copy. Additionally, a shareholder or director is entitled to inspect and copy the following records during regular business hours at a reasonable location specified by the corporation, provided that the shareholder or director: (a) makes a demand in good faith and for a proper purpose; (b) describes with reasonable particularity their purpose and the records they wish to inspect; and (c) ensures the records are directly connected with their purpose: (i) minutes of any meeting, records of any action taken by the board of directors, or by a committee of the board of directors while acting on behalf of the corporation in place of the board of directors; (ii) minutes of any meeting of the shareholders; (iii) records of any action taken by the shareholders without a meeting; and (iv) waivers of notices of any meeting of the shareholders, any meeting of the board of directors, or any meeting of a committee of the board of directors. The corporation may not abolish this right of inspection.	Under the NRS, any shareholder of record for more than 6 months or person authorized by the holder(s) of at least 5% of the Corporation’s outstanding shares may, upon 5 days’ written demand, inspect the copies of the Articles of Incorporation, Bylaws or stock ledger at the offices of the resident agent, except that the Corporation may deny any such right to any person that refuses to provide an affidavit that the inspection is not desired for a purpose other than the business of the corporation and the person has not sold or offered for sale any list of stockholders of any corporation or aided another in procuring such a list for any purpose. In addition, any holder(s) of record of at least 15% of the Corporation’s outstanding shares, or person authorized by them, may, upon 5 days’ written demand, inspect and make copies of the books of account and all financial records of the Corporation, and conduct an audit of such records, except that the Corporation may deny such right to any person that refuses to provide an affidavit that such inspection, copies or audit is not desired for any purpose not related to such person’s interests as a shareholder.

Notwithstanding the above, except to the extent otherwise provided in the articles of incorporation, bylaws, or a resolution of the board of directors, and subject to certain limitations, dissenters’ rights may be limited or unavailable for certain shares, particularly those that are publicly traded or held by a large number of shareholders.	Except as specifically provided in a corporation’s articles or bylaws, the NRS provides appraisal rights only in the case of a shareholder objecting to certain mergers or consolidations.

*Reacquisition of Stock by the Corporation*	A corporation may acquire its own shares and shares so acquired constitute authorized but unissued shares unless otherwise restricted by the articles of incorporation.	A corporation may acquire its own shares and shares so acquired constitute authorized but unissued shares.

Control Share Acquisition Statute

The URBC does not contain any control share acquisition provisions, instead these are found in the Utah Control Shares Acquisitions Act

The Utah Control Shares Acquisitions Act applies to “issuing public corporations” which are Utah-organized companies with at least 100 shareholders, a principal place of business, principal office, or substantial assets within Utah, and additionally meet certain residency or ownership thresholds for Utah shareholders or shares.

Under the Act, if a person makes a “control share acquisition” by obtaining shares that would result in them controlling 1/5 or more, 1/3 or more, or a majority or more of the total voting power in an issuing public corporation, those control shares will not have voting rights unless a resolution is approved by the disinterested shareholders of the corporation.

The acquiring person may deliver a statement to the corporation proposing to have their voting rights approved at a special meeting, or the matter will be presented at the next special or annual meeting.

A corporation can include a provision in its articles of incorporation or bylaws, adopted prior to a control share acquisition, stating that this chapter does not apply to acquisitions of its shares.

If authorized by the articles or bylaws prior to an acquisition, shares are subject to redemption by the issuing public corporation if an acquiring person fails to provide a required statement or if voting rights are not approved by shareholders.

The NRS provides that under certain circumstances any person directly or indirectly acquiring a “controlling interest” in an “issuing corporation” obtains only those voting rights with respect to shares purchased within the 90-day period leading up to the attainment of “control” status as are approved by the disinterested shareholders of the corporation. A “controlling interest” is deemed to be the direct or indirect power to exercise at least 20% of the voting power of the shareholders in the election of directors. An “issuing corporation” is a Nevada corporation directly or indirectly doing business in Nevada with at least 200 stockholders, of which 100 must have Nevada addresses.

An issuing corporation may adopt a provision, on or before the date 10 days following the control share acquisition, allowing the corporation to call for the redemption of an acquiring person’s shares (at their average acquisition price) if (a) the acquiring person fails to deliver certain information to the corporation within 10 days following acquisition of the controlling interest or (b) such information is delivered but the stockholders fail to confer full voting rights to the control shares.

Unless the corporation has provided otherwise in its Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws on or before the 10th day following the control share acquisition, if (a) the control shares are conferred full voting rights by the stockholders, and (b) the acquiring person has obtained a majority or more of all voting power, any disinterested stockholder not voting in favor of conferring voting rights to the control shares may demand payment for his shares at a price not less than the average acquisition price (ambiguous as to whether this means for the control person or the redeeming person). The Board must give notice and opportunity to elect to be bought out to all stockholders not voting in favor of the grant of full voting rights.

No Appraisal Rights

No appraisal rights are available under the Utah Revised Business Corporations Act or under our Articles of Incorporation, or our Bylaws, as amended, with respect to the Proposal No. 3.

Interests of Officers and Directors in this Proposal

Our officers and directors do not have a substantial interest, direct or indirect, in this proposal.

Required Vote of Shareholders

The affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast at the Annual Meeting is required to approve Proposal No. 5.

Board Recommendation

-46-

PROPOSAL NO. 6: ADJOURNMENT PROPOSAL

At the Annual Meeting, we may ask our shareholders to vote on a proposal to adjourn the Annual Meeting if necessary or appropriate in the sole discretion of our Board, including to solicit additional proxies in the event that there are not sufficient votes at the time of the Annual Meeting or any adjournment or postponement of the Annual Meeting to approve any of the other proposals.

If at the Annual Meeting the number of shares authorized to vote present or represented by proxy and voting in favor of a proposal is insufficient to approve such proposal, then our Board may hold a vote on each proposal that has garnered sufficient votes, if any, and then move to adjourn the Annual Meeting as to the remaining proposals in order to solicit additional proxies in favor of those remaining proposals.

Alternatively, even if there are sufficient shares authorized to vote present or represented by proxy voting in favor of all of the proposals, our Board may hold a vote on the adjournment proposal if, in its sole discretion, it determines that it is necessary or appropriate for any reason to adjourn the Annual Meeting to a later date and time. In that event, the Company will ask its shareholders to vote only upon the adjournment proposal and not any other proposal.

Any adjournment may be made without notice (if the adjournment is not for more than thirty days and a new record date is not fixed for the adjourned meeting), other than by an announcement made at the Annual Meeting of the time, date and place of the adjourned meeting.

Any adjournment of the Annual Meeting will allow our shareholders who have already sent in their proxies to revoke them at any time prior to their use at the Annual Meeting as adjourned.

If we adjourn the Annual Meeting to a later date, we will transact the same business and, unless we must fix a new record date, only the shareholders who were eligible to vote at the original meeting will be permitted to vote at the adjourned meeting.

Required Vote of Stockholders

The affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast at the Annual Meeting is required to approve Proposal No. 6.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

HOUSEHOLDING

The SEC has adopted rules that permit companies and intermediaries (e.g., brokers) to satisfy the delivery requirements for proxy statements and other Annual Meeting materials with respect to two or more stockholders sharing the same address by delivering a proxy statement or other Annual Meeting materials addressed to those stockholders. This process, which is commonly referred to as householding, potentially provides extra convenience for stockholders and cost savings for companies. Stockholders who participate in householding will continue to be able to access and receive separate proxy cards.

If you share an address with another stockholder and have received multiple copies of our proxy materials, you may write or call us at the address or phone number below to request delivery of a single copy of the notice and, if applicable, other proxy materials in the future. We undertake to deliver promptly upon written or oral request a separate copy of the proxy materials, as requested, to a stockholder at a shared address to which a single copy of the proxy materials was delivered. If you hold stock as a record stockholder and prefer to receive separate copies of our proxy materials either now or in the future, please contact us at 1 Lincoln Street, Boston, MA 02111, Attn: Secretary, or by phone at (781) 925-1700.

The election of directors and any other proper business may be transacted at the Annual Meeting of stockholders.

Section 2.2 Special Meetings. Except as otherwise required by law, Special Meetings of the stockholders of the Corporation may be called only in accordance with the provisions of the Corporation’s Articles of Incorporation.

Section 2.3 Place of Meetings. The chief executive officer, the Board of Directors, or a Chairman of the Board of Directors, as the case may be, may designate the time and place, either within or without the State of Nevada, for any Annual Meeting or for any Special Meeting of the stockholders called by the chief executive officer, the Board of Directors, or the Chairman of the Board of Directors.

Section 2.4 Notice. Whenever stockholders are required or permitted to take any action at a meeting, a written notice of the meeting shall be given which shall state the place, date and hour of the meeting, the means of electronic communication, if any, by which stockholders or proxies may be deemed to be present in the meeting and vote, and, in the case of a Special Meeting, the purpose or purposes for which the meeting is called.

D-1

Section 2.6 Quorum. Unless otherwise required by applicable law or the Articles of Incorporation, the holders of one-third of the Corporation’s capital stock issued and outstanding and entitled to vote thereat, present in person or represented by proxy, shall constitute a quorum at all meetings of the stockholders for the transaction of business. A quorum, once established, shall not be broken by the withdrawal of enough votes to leave less than a quorum. If, however, a quorum shall not be present or represented at any meeting of the stockholders, the stockholders entitled to vote thereat, present in person or represented by proxy, shall have power to adjourn the meeting from time to time, in the manner provided in Section 2.5 hereof, until a quorum shall be present or represented.

Section 2.7 Voting.

(a) Unless otherwise required by law, the Articles of Incorporation or these Bylaws, any question brought before any meeting of the stockholders, other than the election of directors, shall be decided by the vote of the holders of a majority of the votes cast on a matter at the meeting at which a quorum is present. Directors shall be elected by a plurality of the votes cast at the election. Broker non-votes and abstentions are considered for purposes of establishing a quorum but not considered as votes cast for or against a proposal or director nominee.

(b) Unless otherwise provided in the Articles of Incorporation, and subject to Section 2.11(a), each stockholder represented at a meeting of the stockholders shall be entitled to cast one (1) vote for each share of the capital stock entitled to vote thereat held by such stockholder. Such votes may be cast in person or by proxy as provided in Section 2.8. The Board of Directors, in its discretion, or the officer of the Corporation presiding at a meeting of the stockholders, in such officer’s discretion, may require that any votes cast at such meeting shall be cast by written ballot.

(c) At any stockholders meeting, every stockholder entitled to vote may vote in person or by proxy. If authorized by the Board of Directors, the voting by stockholders or proxy holders at any meeting conducted by electronic communication may be effected by a ballot submitted by electronic transmission, provided that any such electronic transmission must either set forth or be submitted with information from which the Corporation can determine that the electronic transmission was authorized by the stockholder or proxy holder. The Board of Directors, in its discretion, or the chairman of the meeting of stockholders, in such person’s discretion, may require that any votes cast at such meeting shall be cast by written ballot.

Section 2.8 Proxies. Each stockholder entitled to vote at a meeting of the stockholders or to express consent or dissent to corporate action in writing without a meeting may authorize another person or persons to act for such stockholder as proxy, but no such proxy shall be voted upon after six (6) months from its date of creation, unless such proxy provides for a longer period, which may not exceed seven (7) years from the date of its creation. Without limiting the manner in which a stockholder may authorize another person or persons to act for such stockholder as proxy, the following shall constitute a valid means by which a stockholder may grant such authority:

(i) A stockholder may execute a writing authorizing another person or persons to act for such stockholder as proxy. Execution may be accomplished by the stockholder or such stockholder’s authorized officer, director, employee or agent signing such writing or causing such person’s signature to be affixed to such writing by any reasonable means, including, but not limited to, by facsimile signature.

(ii) A stockholder may authorize another person or persons to act for such stockholder as proxy by transmitting or authorizing the transmission of an electronic transmission to the person who will be the holder of the proxy or to a proxy solicitation firm, proxy support service organization or like agent duly authorized by the person who will be the holder of the proxy to receive the transmission, provided that any such electronic transmission must either set forth or be submitted with information from which it can be determined that the electronic transmission was authorized by the stockholder. If it is determined that such electronic transmission is valid, the inspectors or, if there are no inspectors, such other persons making that determination shall specify the information on which they relied.

D-2

Any copy, facsimile or other electronic telecommunication or other reliable reproduction of the writing or electronic transmission authorizing another person or persons to act as proxy for a stockholder may be substituted or used in lieu of the original writing or electronic transmission for any and all purposes for which the original writing or electronic transmission could be used; provided, however, that such copy, facsimile telecommunication or other reproduction shall be a complete reproduction of the entire original writing or electronic transmission .

Section 2.9 Consent of Stockholders in Lieu of Meeting. Any action required or permitted to be taken by the stockholders may be effected only in accordance with the provisions of the Articles of Incorporation.

Section 2.10 List of Stockholders Entitled to Vote. The officer of the Corporation who has charge of the stock ledger of the Corporation shall prepare and make, at least ten (10) days but not more than sixty (60) days, before every meeting of the stockholders, a complete list of the stockholders of record entitled to vote at the meeting, arranged in alphabetical order, and showing the address of each stockholder of record and the number of shares registered in the name of each stockholder of record. Such list shall be open to the examination of any stockholder, for any purpose germane to the meeting, during ordinary business hours, for a period of at least ten (10) days prior to the meeting (i) either (A) at a place within the city where the meeting is to be held, which place shall be specified in the notice of the meeting, or, if not so specified, at the place where the meeting is to be held or (B) on a reasonably accessible electronic network, provided that the information required to gain access to such list is provided with the notice of the meeting or (ii) during ordinary business hours, at the principal place of business of the Corporation. In the event that the Corporation determines to make the list available on an electronic network, the Corporation may take reasonable steps to ensure that such information is available only to stockholders of the Corporation. If the meeting is to be held at a place, the list shall also be produced and kept at the time and place of the meeting during the whole time thereof, and may be inspected by any stockholder who is present. Except as otherwise required by law, such list shall be the only evidence as to who are the stockholders entitled to vote at any meeting of the stockholders. If a meeting of stockholders is to be held solely by means of electronic communication as permitted by Section 9.2(a), the list shall be open to the examination of any stockholder during the whole time of the meeting on a reasonably accessible electronic network, and the information required to access such list shall be provided with the notice of meeting. In the event that more than one group of shares is entitled to vote as a separate voting group at the meeting, there shall be a separate listing of the stockholders of each group.

Section 2.11 Record Date. In order that the Corporation may determine the stockholders entitled to notice of or to vote at any meeting of the stockholders or any adjournment thereof, the Board of Directors may fix a record date, which record date shall not precede the date upon which the resolution fixing the record date is adopted by the Board of Directors, and which record date shall not be more than sixty (60) nor less than ten (10) days before the date of such meeting. If no record date is fixed by the Board of Directors, the record date for determining stockholders entitled to notice of or to vote at a meeting of the stockholders shall be at the close of business on the day before the day on which the first notice is given, or, if notice is waived, at the close of business on the day next preceding the day on which the meeting is held. A determination of stockholders of record entitled to notice of or to vote at a meeting of the stockholders shall apply to any adjournment of the meeting; provided, however, that the Board of Directors may fix a new record date for the adjourned meeting.

Section 2.12 Stock Ledger. The stock ledger of the Corporation shall be the only evidence as to who are the stockholders entitled to examine the stock ledger, the list required by Section 2.10 or the books of the Corporation, or to vote in person or by proxy at any meeting of the stockholders.

Section 2.13 Conduct of Meetings. Meetings of stockholders shall be presided over by the chairman of the Board of Directors (the “Chairman”), or, in the absence of the Chairman, by the vice chairman of the Board of Directors, if any, or if there be no vice chairman or in the absence of the vice chairman, by the chief executive officer, if any, or if there be no chief executive officer or in the absence of the chief executive officer, by the president, or, in the absence of the president, or, in the absence of any of the foregoing persons, by a chairman designated by the Board of Directors, or by a chairman chosen at the meeting by the stockholders entitled to cast a majority of the votes which all stockholders present in person or by proxy are entitled to cast. The individual acting as chairman of the meeting may delegate any or all of his or her authority and responsibilities as such to any director or officer of the Corporation present in person at the meeting. The secretary, or in the absence of the secretary an assistant secretary, shall act as secretary of the meeting, but in the absence of the secretary and any assistant secretary the chairman of the meeting may appoint any person to act as secretary of the meeting. The order of business at each such meeting shall be as determined by the chairman of the meeting. The chairman of the meeting shall have the right and authority to prescribe such rules, regulations and procedures and to do all such acts and things as are necessary or desirable for the proper conduct of the meeting, including, without limitation, (i) the establishment of procedures for the maintenance of order and safety, (ii) the establishment of an agenda or order of business for the meeting, (iii) limitation on participation in the meeting to stockholders of record of the Corporation, their duly authorized and constituted proxies and such other persons as the chairman of the meeting shall permit, (iv) limitation on the time allotted for consideration of each agenda item and for questions or comments by meeting participants, (v) restrictions on entry to such meeting after the time prescribed for the commencement thereof, and (vi) the opening and closing of the voting polls. The Board of Directors, in its discretion, or the chairman of the meeting, in his or her discretion, may require that any votes cast at such meeting shall be cast by written ballot.

Section 2.14 Inspectors of Election. In advance of any meeting of the stockholders, the Board of Directors, by resolution, the Chairman or the chief executive officer shall appoint one or more inspectors to act at the meeting and make a written report thereof. One or more other persons may be designated as alternate inspectors to replace any inspector who fails to act. If no inspector or alternate is able to act at a meeting of the stockholders, the chairman of the meeting shall appoint one or more inspectors to act at the meeting. Unless otherwise required by applicable law, inspectors may be officers, employees or agents of the Corporation. Each inspector, before entering upon the discharge of the duties of inspector, shall take and sign an oath to faithfully execute the duties of inspector with strict impartiality and according to the best of such inspector’s ability. The inspector or inspectors may (i) ascertain the number of shares outstanding and the voting power of each; (ii) determine the number of shares represented at a meeting and the validity of proxies or ballots; (iii) count all votes and ballots; (iv) determine any challenges made to any determination made by the inspector(s); and (v) certify the determination of the number of shares represented at the meeting and the count of all votes and ballots.

To be timely, a stockholder’s notice to the secretary must be delivered to or be mailed and received at the principal executive offices of the Corporation not less than ninety (90) days nor more than one-hundred and twenty (120) days prior to the anniversary date of the immediately preceding Annual Meeting of stockholders; provided, however, that in the event that the Annual Meeting is called for a date that is not within twenty-five (25) days before or after such anniversary date, notice by the stockholder in order to be timely must be so received not later than the close of business on the tenth (10th) day following the day on which such notice of the date of the Annual Meeting was mailed or such public disclosure of the date of the Annual Meeting was made, whichever first occurs. In no event shall the adjournment or postponement of an Annual Meeting, or the public announcement of such an adjournment or postponement, commence a new time period (or extend any time period) for the giving of a stockholder’s notice as described above.

D-4

To be in proper written form, a stockholder’s notice to the secretary must set forth the following information: (a) as to each matter such stockholder proposes to bring before the Annual Meeting, a brief description of the business desired to be brought before the Annual Meeting and the reasons for conducting such business at the Annual Meeting, and (b) as to the stockholder giving notice and the beneficial owner, if any, on whose behalf the proposal is being made, (i) the name and address of such person, (ii) (A) the class or series and number of all shares of stock of the Corporation which are owned beneficially or of record by such person and any affiliates or associates of such person, (B) the name of each nominee holder of shares of all stock of the Corporation owned beneficially but not of record by such person or any affiliates or associates of such person, and the number of such shares of stock of the Corporation held by each such nominee holder, (C) whether and the extent to which any derivative instrument, swap, option, warrant, short interest, hedge or profit interest or other transaction has been entered into by or on behalf of such person, or any affiliates or associates of such person, with respect to stock of the Corporation and (D) whether and the extent to which any other transaction, agreement, arrangement or understanding (including any short position or any borrowing or lending of shares of stock of the Corporation) has been made by or on behalf of such person, or any affiliates or associates of such person, the effect or intent of any of the foregoing being to mitigate loss to, or to manage risk or benefit of stock price changes for, such person, or any affiliates or associates of such person, or to increase or decrease the voting power or pecuniary or economic interest of such person, or any affiliates or associates of such person, with respect to stock of the Corporation; (iii) a description of all agreements, arrangements, or understandings (whether written or oral) between or among such person, or any affiliates or associates of such person, and any other person or persons (including their names) in connection with the proposal of such business and any material interest of such person or any affiliates or associates of such person, in such business, including any anticipated benefit therefrom to such person, or any affiliates or associates of such person, (iv) a representation that the stockholder giving notice intends to appear in person or by proxy at the Annual Meeting to bring such business before the meeting; and (v) any other information relating to such person that would be required to be disclosed in a proxy statement or other filing required to be made in connection with the solicitation of proxies by such person with respect to the proposed business to be brought by such person before the Annual Meeting pursuant to Section 14 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder.

A stockholder providing notice of business proposed to be brought before an Annual Meeting shall further update and supplement such notice, if necessary, so that the information provided or required to be provided in such notice pursuant to this Section 2.15 shall be true and correct as of the record date for determining the stockholders entitled to receive notice of the Annual Meeting and such update and supplement shall be delivered to or be mailed and received by the Secretary at the principal executive offices of the Corporation not later than five (5) business days after the record date for determining the stockholders entitled to receive notice of the Annual Meeting.

No business shall be conducted at the Annual Meeting of Stockholders except business brought before the Annual Meeting in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Section 2.15; provided, however, that, once business has been properly brought before the Annual Meeting in accordance with such procedures, nothing in this Section 2.15 shall be deemed to preclude discussion by any stockholder of any such business. If the chairman of an Annual Meeting determines that business was not properly brought before the Annual Meeting in accordance with the foregoing procedures, the chairman shall declare to the meeting that the business was not properly brought before the meeting and such business shall not be transacted.

Nothing contained in this Section 2.15 shall be deemed to affect any rights of stockholders to request inclusion of proposals in the Corporation’s proxy statement pursuant to Rule 14a-8 under the Exchange Act (or any successor provision of law).

Section 2.16 Nomination of Directors. Only natural persons of at least 18 years of age who are nominated in accordance with the following procedures shall be eligible for election as directors of the Corporation, except as may be otherwise provided in the Articles of Incorporation with respect to the right of holders of preferred stock, if any, of the Corporation to nominate and elect a specified number of directors in certain circumstances.

INDEMNIFICATION

Section 8.1 Power to Indemnify in Actions, Suits or Proceedings other than Those by or in the Right of the Corporation. Subject to Section 8.3 and to the fullest extent permitted by the NRS, the Corporation shall indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other than an action by or in the right of the Corporation), by reason of the fact that such person is or was a director or officer of the Corporation, or is or was a director or officer of the Corporation serving at the request of the Corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, against expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with such action, suit or proceeding if such person acted in good faith and in a manner such person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe such person’s conduct was unlawful. The termination of any action, suit or proceeding by judgment, order, settlement, conviction, or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, shall not, of itself, create a presumption that the person did not act in good faith and in a manner which such person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had reasonable cause to believe that such person’s conduct was unlawful.

D-13

Section 8.2 Power to Indemnify in Actions, Suits or Proceedings by or in the Right of the Corporation. Subject to Section 8.3 and to the fullest extent permitted by the NRS, the Corporation shall indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action or suit by or in the right of the Corporation to procure a judgment in its favor by reason of the fact that such person is or was a director or officer of the Corporation, or is or was a director or officer of the Corporation serving at the request of the Corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, against expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with the defense or settlement of such action or suit if such person acted in good faith and in a manner such person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Corporation; except that no indemnification shall be made in respect of any claim, issue or matter as to which such person shall have been adjudged to be liable to the Corporation unless and only to the extent that the court in which such action or suit was brought shall determine upon application that, despite the adjudication of liability but in view of all the circumstances of the case, such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses which the court in which such action or suit was brought deem proper.

Section 8.3 Authorization of Indemnification. Any indemnification under this Article VIII (unless ordered by a court) shall be made by the Corporation only as permitted by the NRS and authorized in the specific case upon a determination that indemnification of the present or former director or officer is proper in the circumstances because such person has met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in Section 8.1 or Section 8.2, as the case may be. Such determination shall be made, with respect to a person who is a director or officer at the time of such determination, (i) by a majority vote of the directors who are not parties to such action, suit or proceeding, even though less than a quorum, or (ii) by a committee of such directors designated by a majority vote of such directors, even though less than a quorum, or (iii) if there are no such directors, or if such directors so direct, by independent legal counsel in a written opinion or (iv) by the stockholders. Such determination shall be made, with respect to former directors and officers, by any person or persons having the authority to act on the matter on behalf of the Corporation. To the extent, however, that a present or former director or officer of the Corporation has been successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any action, suit or proceeding described above, or in defense of any claim, issue or matter therein, such person shall be indemnified against expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection therewith, without the necessity of authorization in the specific case.

Section 8.4 Good Faith Defined. For purposes of any determination under Section 8.3, a person shall be deemed to have acted in good faith and in a manner such person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Corporation, or, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, to have had no reasonable cause to believe such person’s conduct was unlawful, if such person’s action is based on the records or books of account of the Corporation or another enterprise, or on information supplied to such person by the officers of the Corporation or another enterprise in the course of their duties, or on the advice of legal counsel for the Corporation or another enterprise or on information or records given or reports made to the Corporation or another enterprise by an independent certified public accountant or by an appraiser or other expert selected with reasonable care by the Corporation or another enterprise. The provisions of this Section 8.4 shall not be deemed to be exclusive or to limit in any way the circumstances in which a person may be deemed to have met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in Section 8.1 or Section 8.2, as the case may be.

Section 8.5 Indemnification by a Court. Notwithstanding any contrary determination in the specific case under Section 8.3, and notwithstanding the absence of any determination thereunder, any director or officer may apply to any court of competent jurisdiction in the State of Nevada for indemnification to the extent otherwise permissible under Section 8.1 or Section 8.2. The basis of such indemnification by a court shall be a determination by such court that indemnification of the director or officer is proper in the circumstances because such person has met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in Section 8.1 or Section 8.2, as the case may be. Neither a contrary determination in the specific case under Section 8.3 nor the absence of any determination thereunder shall be a defense to such application or create a presumption that the director or officer seeking indemnification has not met any applicable standard of conduct. Notice of any application for indemnification pursuant to this Section 8.5 shall be given to the Corporation promptly upon the filing of such application. If successful, in whole or in part, the director or officer seeking indemnification shall also be entitled to be paid the expense of prosecuting such application.

D-14

Section 8.6 Expenses Payable in Advance. Expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred by a director or officer in defending any civil, criminal, administrative or investigative action, suit or proceeding shall be paid by the Corporation in advance of the final disposition of such action, suit or proceeding upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of such director or officer to repay such amount if it shall ultimately be determined that such person is not entitled to be indemnified by the Corporation as authorized in this Article VIII. Such expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred by former directors and officers or other employees and agents may be so paid upon such terms and conditions, if any, as the Corporation deems appropriate.

Section 8.7 Nonexclusivity of Indemnification and Advancement of Expenses. The indemnification and advancement of expenses provided by, or granted pursuant to, this Article VIII shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which those seeking indemnification or advancement of expenses may be entitled under the Articles of Incorporation, these Bylaws, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise, both as to action in such person’s official capacity and as to action in another capacity while holding such office, it being the policy of the Corporation that indemnification of the persons specified in Section 8.1 and Section 8.2 shall be made to the fullest extent permitted by law.
