See the section titled “The Merger — Structure of the Merger” for more information on the structure of the merger.
SG Blocks is a provider of code engineered cargo shipping containers that it modifies and delivers to meet the growing demand for safe and green construction.

Upon consummation of the merger, the holders of common stock of SG Blocks will receive an aggregate of 36,050,741 shares of the Company’s common stock. Additionally, Ladenburg Thalmann & Co. Inc. (“Ladenburg”) will receive in the merger 408,750 shares of the Company’s common stock pursuant to contractual obligations between SG Blocks and Ladenburg.

See the section titled “The Merger — Structure of the Merger” for more information on the merger consideration and the ownership of the Company’s common stock following the merger.
All of the officers and directors of SG Blocks and each stockholder of SG Blocks currently owning in excess of 20% of the SG Blocks common stock have agreed not to sell their shares until the 12-month anniversary of the consummation of the merger, subject to certain exceptions.
Upon consummation of the merger, (i) Robert Lundgren and Glenn Halpryn will resign from their Board positions with the Company and (ii) Paul M. Galvin, SG Blocks’ Chief Executive Officer, Joseph Tacopina, a director of SG Blocks, Stevan Armstrong, SG Blocks’ President and Chief Operating Officer, J. Scott Magrane and Christopher Melton will be appointed to the Company’s Board.

Bryant Kirkland III will resign from their positions as officers of the Company and (ii) Paul Galvin will become the Chief Executive Officer of the Company, Brian Wasserman will become the Chief Financial Officer of the Company, Stevan Armstrong will become the President and Chief Operating Officer of the Company and Jennifer Strumingher will become the Chief Administrative Officer of the Company. These four individuals currently hold these positions at SG Blocks and will continue to do so after the merger. See the section titled “Executive Officers, Directors and Key Employees” for more information on the management of the Company following the merger.
As a result of the foregoing, the Change of Control will occur with respect to the Company’s stock ownership and management upon consummation of the merger with SG Blocks.
To provide a fund for payment to the Company with respect to its post-closing rights to indemnification under the Merger Agreement, there will be placed in escrow (with an independent escrow agent) 817,500 shares of the Company’s common stock to be received by the holders of SG Blocks common stock. This escrow fund will be the sole remedy for the Company for its rights to indemnification under the Merger Agreement.

The audit committee has also met on three occasions and acted by unanimous written consent on one occasion thus far in 2011. Upon consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement and the Change of Control, the audit committee will consist of J. Bryant Kirkland III, J. Scott Magrane and Christopher Melton each of whom is an independent director. Mr. Kirkland will be an “audit committee financial expert.”

Since the Company is not a “listed company” under SEC rules, the Company is not required to have a compensation committee. Furthermore, the Company does not believe it is necessary for the Board to appoint such committee, or have a separately designated lead director, because the volume of matters that came before the Board for consideration permits all directors to give sufficient time and attention to such matters to be involved in all decision making.

The Board is responsible for overseeing risk management, and receives reports from management periodically.

Nominating Committee and Shareholder-Director Communications

The Company’s board does not have a nominating committee because the board does not believe that a defined policy with regard to the consideration of candidates recommended by stockholders is necessary at this time. Given the limited scope of the Company’s operations, the board believes a specific nominating policy would be premature and of little assistance until the Company’s business operations are at a more advanced level.

Currently, the entire board decides on nominees, on the recommendation of any member of the board, followed by the board’s review of the candidates’ resumes and interviews of candidates. There has not been any defined policy or procedural requirements for stockholders to submit recommendations or nomination for directors. However, the board will consider suggestions from individual stockholders, subject to evaluation of the person’s merits. Stockholders should communicate nominee suggestions directly to any of the board members, accompanied by biographical details and a statement of support for the nominees. The suggested nominee must also provide a statement of consent to being considered for nomination. Although there are no formal criteria for nominees, the Board believes that persons should be actively engaged in business endeavors, have a financial background, be familiar with acquisition strategies and money management and be able to promote a diversity of views based on the person’s education, experience and professional employment. Based on the information gathered, the board then makes a decision on whether to recommend the candidates as nominees for director. The Company does not pay any fee to any third party or parties to identify or evaluate or assist in identifying or evaluating potential nominees.

Family Relationships

There are no family relationships among the Company’s existing or incoming directors or officers.

The board does not have a formal policy of attendance of directors at the annual meeting. It does encourage such attendance. The Company did not have an annual meeting of stockholders in 2009 or 2010.

Compliance with Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act

Each director and executive officer of the Company and each beneficial owner of 10% or more of the Company’s common stock is required to report his or her transactions in shares of the Company’s common stock to the SEC within a specified period following a transaction. Based on the Company’s review of filings with the SEC and written representations furnished to the Company during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010, the directors, executive officers, and 10% beneficial owners filed all such reports within the specified time period.

EXECUTIVE AND DIRECTOR COMPENSATION

The Company is not party to any employment agreements or other compensation plans.

Directors’ Compensation

The Company pays each director an annual retainer of $5,000, payable quarterly, and reimburses the directors for reasonable travel expenses incurred in connection with their activities on the Company’s behalf.

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS

General

Certain accounting and related finance functions are performed on behalf of the Company by employees of Vector, the Company’s principal stockholder. Expenses incurred relating to these functions are allocated to the Company and paid as incurred to Vector based on management’s best estimate of the cost involved. The amounts allocated were immaterial for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2009 and 2010.

On March 26, 2009, the Company entered into a $50,000 Revolving Credit Promissory Note (the “Revolver”) with Vector due December 31, 2012. The loan bears interest at 11% per annum. There was a balance $37,500 outstanding under the Revolver at December 31, 2010. On January 26, 2011, the Company and Vector entered into an amendment to the Revolver increasing the amount that we may borrow thereunder from $50,000 to $100,000. The Revolver had a balance of $53,500 at March 31, 2011. Accrued interest on the Revolver was $6,640 as of March 31, 2011. On April 11, 2011, the Company borrowed an additional $5,000 under the Revolver.

Transaction Relationships

Vector, the Company’s principal stockholder, is also a stockholder of SG Blocks and as such, will receive 2,018,518 additional shares of common stock of the Company upon consummation of the merger. Messrs. Lampen and Kirkland are each executive officers of Vector.

In October and December 2010, Ladenburg acted as placement agent for SG Blocks in a private placement and raised aggregate gross proceeds of $2,875,000. Ladenburg was paid an aggregate cash fee of $201,250 for its services in the private placement and was also issued warrants to purchase shares of common stock of SG Blocks, which will represent the right to purchase an aggregate of 1,044,583 shares of the Company’s common stock upon consummation of the merger. SG Blocks also agreed that if Ladenburg introduced it to an existing publicly traded company with which to consummate a merger, it would cause Ladenburg to be issued shares of common stock of the combined merger entity equal to 1% of the outstanding shares of such entity on a fully diluted basis. Ladenburg introduced the Company to SG Blocks and accordingly, will be issued an aggregate of 408,750 shares of the Company’s common stock (representing 1% of the Company’s stock on a fully diluted basis) upon consummation of the merger. Vector invested $500,000 in SG Blocks as part of the private placement.

Mr. Lampen is the president and chief executive officer of Ladenburg’s parent company. Additionally, Vector, through a wholly-owned subsidiary, owns approximately 8% of the outstanding common stock of Ladenburg.

From March 2011 to July 2011, William Walters, a senior advisor to, and a registered representative at, Ladenburg, received consulting fees from SG Blocks in the total amount of $100,000 and in the future may receive additional consideration based on business generated by him, if any. Any potential fees will be determined on a case by case basis and will be dependent on the margins of the project. Additionally, Mr. Walters’ wife is a consultant to SG Blocks and in the future may receive consideration of between 5% and 7% of gross sales on business generated by her, if any.

DESCRIPTION OF STOCKHOLDER MATTERS

On July 27, 2011, the Company obtained the written consent of a majority of its outstanding common stock approving (i) the Change of Control, (ii) an increase in the number of authorized shares of the Company’s common stock from 25,000,000 shares to 100,000,000 shares, (iii) the change of the name of the Company to “SG Blocks, Inc.” and (iii) the adoption of a 2011 Incentive Stock Plan to be effective upon consummation of the merger. The foregoing eliminated the need for a special stockholder meeting to approve such items. The Company’s board of directors had previously approved each of the foregoing items.

Each of the Change of Control, Charter Amendments and the Stock Plan will be effective upon consummation of the merger with SG Blocks, which is anticipated to take place in September 2011 after the satisfaction by the Company and SG Blocks of certain closing conditions; provided, however, that in no event will such actions be effective earlier than at least 20 days after the mailing of this information to the Company’s stockholders.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

The following is a description of the actions taken by majority written consent:

Change of Control

On July 27, 2011, the Company entered into the Merger Agreement with Merger Sub, SG Blocks and certain stockholders of SG Blocks. A copy of the Merger Agreement is attached to this information statement as Annex A. Upon the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, Merger Sub will be merged with and into SG Blocks, with SG Blocks surviving the merger and becoming a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company.

Upon consummation of the merger, the holders of common stock of SG Blocks will receive an aggregate of 36,050,741 shares of the Company’s common stock. Additionally, Ladenburg will receive in the merger 408,750 shares of the Company’s common stock pursuant to contractual obligations between SG Blocks and Ladenburg. Upon consummation of the merger, all outstanding SG Blocks warrants shall be cancelled and substituted with warrants of similar tenor to purchase an aggregate of 1,145,509 shares of the Company’s common stock. As a result of the foregoing, the current holders of common stock of the Company will own an aggregate of 8% of the common stock of the Company on a fully diluted basis, the stockholders and warrantholders of SG Blocks will beneficially own an aggregate of 91% of the common stock of the Company on a fully diluted basis and Ladenburg will own an aggregate of 1% of the common stock of the Company on a fully diluted basis (not including warrants to purchase shares of the Company’s stock it will receive in the merger as a result of it currently holding warrants to purchase shares of SG Blocks common stock).

Upon consummation of the merger, (i) Robert Lundgren and Glenn Halpryn will resign from their Board positions with the Company and (ii) Paul M. Galvin, SG Blocks’ Chief Executive Officer, Joseph Tacopina, a director of SG Blocks, Stevan Armstrong, SG Blocks’ President and Chief Operating Officer, J. Scott Magrane and Christopher Melton will be appointed to the Company’s Board.

Additionally, upon consummation of the merger, (i) each of Richard J. Lampen and J. Bryant Kirkland III will resign from their positions as officers of the Company and (ii) Paul Galvin will become the Chief Executive Officer of the Company, Brian Wasserman will become the Chief Financial Officer of the Company, Stevan Armstrong will become the President and Chief Operating Officer of the Company and Jennifer Strumingher will become the Chief Administrative Officer of the Company.

As a result of the foregoing, the Change of Control will occur with respect to the Company’s stock ownership and management upon consummation of the merger with SG Blocks.

The merger and the Merger Agreement are described in more detail below in the section titled “The Merger.”

Charter Amendments

In connection with the Merger Agreement, the Company will change its name to “SG Blocks, Inc.” and increase its authorized shares of common stock from 25,000,000 shares to 100,000,000 shares. Since the Company’s business operations will be conducted through SG Blocks upon consummation of the merger, the Company believes that the name “SG Blocks, Inc.” better describes its business model.

The increase in the authorized number of shares of common stock is necessary for the Company to have sufficient stock to issue to the holders of common stock of SG Blocks to complete the merger and have additional authorized shares of common stock for financing its business, for acquiring other businesses, for forming strategic partnerships and alliances and for stock dividends and stock splits. The Company currently has no such plans, proposals, or arrangements, written or otherwise, to issue any of the additional authorized shares of common stock for such purposes. Notwithstanding the foregoing, authorized but unissued shares of common stock may enable the Company’s board of directors to render it more difficult or to discourage an attempt to obtain control of the Company and thereby protect continuity of or entrench its management, which may adversely affect the market price of the Company’s common stock. If in the due exercise of its fiduciary obligations, for example, the Company’s board of directors were to determine that a takeover proposal were not in the best interests of the Company, such shares could be issued by the board of directors without stockholder approval in one or more private placements or other transactions that might prevent or render more difficult or make more costly the completion of any attempted takeover transaction by diluting voting or

12


 
 

TABLE OF CONTENTS

other rights of the proposed acquirer or insurgent stockholder group, by creating a substantial voting block in institutional or other hands that might support the position of the incumbent board of directors, by effect effecting an acquisition that might complicate or preclude the takeover, or otherwise.

To effect the foregoing changes, the Company will file an amended and restated certificate of incorporation with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware. Concurrently with the filing of the amended and restated certificate of incorporation, the Company plans to notify the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority of the proposed name change and to work with FINRA to obtain a new trading symbol for its common stock.

It is not mandatory for the Company’s stockholders to surrender their stock certificates as a result of the Charter Amendments. The Company’s transfer agent will adjust the record books of the Company to reflect the name change. New certificates will not be mailed to stockholders; however, new certificates will be issued during the ordinary course of business.

Stock Plan

In connection with the Merger Agreement, the Company adopted the 2011 Incentive Stock Plan. A copy of the Stock Plan is attached to this information statement as Annex B. The Stock Plan is designed to enable the Company to offer its employees, officers, directors, consultants and advisors whose services are considered valuable, to encourage a sense of proprietorship in the Company and to stimulate the active interest of such persons in the development and financial success of the Company and its subsidiaries. The various types of incentive awards that may be provided under the Stock Plan are intended to enable the Company to respond to changes in compensation practices, tax laws, accounting regulations and the size and diversity of its business.

All of the Company’s officers, directors, employees, consultants and advisors, as well as those of its subsidiaries, are eligible to be granted awards under the Stock Plan. An incentive stock option may be granted under the Stock Plan only to a person who, at the time of the grant, is an employee of the Company or its subsidiaries. No awards have been granted under the Stock Plan as of the date of this information statement. All awards will be subject to and approval by the board of directors.

Administration

The Stock Plan is administered by the Company’s board of directors. Subject to the provisions of the Stock Plan, the board of directors determines, among other things, the persons to whom from time to time awards may be granted, the specific type of awards to be granted, the number of shares subject to each award, share prices, any restrictions or limitations on the awards, and any vesting, exchange, deferral, surrender, cancellation, acceleration, termination, exercise or forfeiture provisions related to the awards.

Stock Subject to the Stock Plan

The Stock Plan reserves 8,000,000 shares of common stock for issuance in accordance with the Stock Plan’s terms. Shares of stock subject to other awards that are forfeited or terminated will no longer be available for future award grants under the Stock Plan. If a holder pays the exercise price of a stock option by surrendering any previously owned shares of common stock or arranges to have the appropriate number of shares otherwise issuable upon exercise withheld to cover the withholding tax liability associated with the stock option exercise, then, such shares shall no longer be available for future award grants under the Stock Plan.

Under the Stock Plan, in the event of any merger, reorganization, consolidation, recapitalization, stock dividend or similar type of corporate restructuring affecting the Company’s stock, the board shall make an appropriate and equitable adjustment in the number and kind of shares reserved for issuance under the Stock Plan and in the terms of outstanding awards under the Stock Plan.

Types of Awards

Options.  The Stock Plan provides both for “incentive” stock options as defined in Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (“Code”), and for options not qualifying as incentive options, both of which may be granted with any other stock based award under the Stock Plan. The board determines

13


 
 

TABLE OF CONTENTS

the exercise price per share of common stock purchasable under an incentive or non-qualified stock option, which may not be less than 100% of the fair market value on the day of the grant or, if greater, the par value of a share of common stock. However, the exercise price of an incentive stock option granted to a person possessing more than 10% of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock may not be less than 110% of the fair market value on the date of grant. The aggregate fair market value of all shares of common stock with respect to which incentive stock options are exercisable by a participant for the first time during any calendar year, measured at the date of the grant, may not exceed $100,000 or such other amount as may be subsequently specified under the Code or the regulations thereunder. An incentive stock option may only be granted within a ten-year period commencing on July 25, 2011 and may only be exercised within ten years from the date of the grant, or within five years in the case of an incentive stock option granted to a person who, at the time of the grant, owns common stock possessing more than 10% of the total combined voting power of all classes of the Company’s stock. Subject to any limitations or conditions the board may impose, stock options may be exercised, in whole or in part, at any time during the term of the stock option by giving written notice of exercise to us specifying the number of shares of common stock to be purchased. The notice must be accompanied by payment in full of the purchase price, either in cash or, if provided in the agreement, in the Company’s securities or in combination of the two.

Generally, stock options granted under the Stock Plan may not be transferred other than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution and all stock options are exercisable during the holder’ s lifetime, or in the event of legal incapacity or incompetency, the holder’s guardian or legal representative. However, a holder, with the approval of the board, may transfer a non-qualified stock option to (i) a trust for the benefit of the optionee or (ii) a member of the optionee’s immediate family (or a trust for his or her benefit).

Generally, if the holder is an employee, no stock options granted under the Stock Plan may be exercised by the holder unless he or she is employed by the Company or a subsidiary at the time of the exercise and has been so employed continuously from the time the stock options were granted. However, in the event the holder’s employment is terminated due to disability, the holder may still exercise his or her vested stock options for a period of 60 days from the date of termination or until the expiration of the stated term of the stock option, whichever period is shorter. Similarly, should a holder die while employed by the Company or a subsidiary, his or her legal representative or legatee under his or her will may exercise the decedent holder’s vested stock options for a period of 12 months from the date of his or her death or until the expiration of the stated term of the stock option, whichever period is shorter. If the holder’s employment is terminated due to normal retirement, the holder may still exercise his or her vested stock options for a period of 60 days from the date of termination or until the expiration of the stated term of the stock option, whichever period is shorter. If the holder’s employment is terminated for any reason other than death, disability or normal retirement, the stock option will automatically terminate, except that if the holder’s employment is terminated without cause or for good reason by the employee, then the portion of any stock option that is vested on the date of termination may be exercised for the lesser of 30 days after termination of employment or the balance of the stock option’s term.

Stock Appreciation Rights.  A stock appreciation right entitles the holder to receive a number of shares of common stock having a fair market value equal to the excess fair market value of one share of common stock over the exercise price of the stock appreciation right on the date of grant, multiplied by the number of shares subject to the stock appreciation rights.

Restricted Stock.  Under the Stock Plan, shares of restricted stock may be awarded either alone or in addition to other awards granted under the Stock Plan. The board determines the persons to whom grants of restricted stock are made, the number of shares to be awarded, the price if any to be paid for the restricted stock by the person receiving the stock from the Company, the time or times within which awards of restricted stock may be subject to forfeiture, the vesting schedule and rights to acceleration thereof, and all other terms and conditions of the restricted stock awards.

Restricted stock awarded under the Stock Plan may not be sold, exchanged, assigned, transferred, pledged, encumbered or otherwise disposed of, other than to the Company, during the applicable restriction period. In order to enforce these restrictions, the Stock Plan requires that all shares of restricted stock awarded to the holder remain in the Company’s physical custody until the restrictions have terminated and all vesting

14


 
 

TABLE OF CONTENTS

requirements with respect to the restricted stock have been fulfilled. A breach of any restriction regarding the restricted stock will cause a forfeiture of the restricted stock and any retained distributions. Except for the foregoing restrictions, the holder will, even during the restriction period, have all of the rights of a stockholder, including the right to receive and retain all regular cash dividends and other cash equivalent distributions as we may designate, pay or distribute on the restricted stock and the right to vote the shares.

Other Equity Incentives and Stock-Based Awards.  Under the Stock Plan, the board may grant equity incentives and other stock-based awards, subject to limitations under applicable law, that are denominated or payable in, valued in whole or in part by reference to, or otherwise based on, or related to, shares of common stock, as deemed consistent with the purposes of the Stock Plan. These other stock-based awards may entail the transfer of actual shares of common stock or payment in cash or otherwise of amounts based on the value of shares of common stock. These other stock-based awards may be awarded either alone, in addition to, or in tandem with any other awards under the Stock Plan.

Accelerated Vesting and Exercisability.  If a change of control of the Company occurs (defined under the Stock Plan as (i) a tender offer for more than 50% or more of the outstanding voting securities of the Company unless the Company’s stockholders continue to own more than 50% of the outstanding voting securities of the surviving or resulting company, (ii) a merger or consolidation of the Company unless the Company’s stockholders continue to own more than 50% of the outstanding voting securities of the surviving or resulting company, (iii) a sale of substantially all of the Company’s assets unless the Company’s stockholders continue to own more than 50% of the assets or (iv) the acquisition by any one person, or more than one person acting as a group, acquires the ownership of stock of the Company that, together with the stock held by such person or group, constitutes more than 50% of the outstanding voting securities of the Company), and the Company’s board of directors does not authorize or otherwise approve such acquisition, then each outstanding option shall terminate within a specified number of days after notice to the optionee thereunder, and each optionee shall receive, with respect to each share of common stock subject to such option, an amount equal to the excess of the fair market value of such shares immediately prior to such change of control over the exercise price per share of such option.

Notwithstanding any provisions of the Stock Plan or any award granted thereunder to the contrary, no acceleration shall occur with respect to any award to the extent such acceleration would cause the Stock Plan or an award granted thereunder to fail to comply with Section 409A of the Code.

Award Limitation.  The maximum number of shares of stock that may be subject to options and stock appreciation rights granted under the Stock Plan to any individual in any calendar year shall not exceed 2,000,000.

Other Limitations.  The board may not modify or amend any outstanding option or stock appreciation right to reduce the exercise price of such option or stock appreciation right, as applicable, below the exercise price as of the date of grant of such option or stock appreciation right. In addition, no option or stock appreciation right may be granted in exchange for, or in connection with, the cancellation or surrender of an option or stock appreciation right or other award having a higher exercise price.

Federal Income Tax Consequences

The United States federal income tax discussion set forth below is intended for general information only and does not purport to be a complete analysis of all of the potential tax effects of the Stock Plan. It is based upon laws, regulations, rulings and decisions now in effect, all of which are subject to change. State, local and United States income tax consequences that may have applied in prior years are not discussed, and may vary from locality to locality.

Incentive stock options

There will be no federal income tax consequences to the optionee or to the Company upon the grant of an incentive stock option. If the optionee holds the option shares for the required holding period of at least two years after the date the option was granted and one year after exercise, the difference between the exercise price and the amount realized upon sale or disposition of the option shares will be long-term capital gain or loss, and the Company will not be entitled to a federal income tax deduction. If the optionee disposes of the option shares in a sale, exchange or other disqualifying disposition before the required holding period

15


 
 

TABLE OF CONTENTS

ends, he or she will recognize taxable ordinary income in an amount equal to the excess of the fair market value of the option shares at the time of exercise over the exercise price, and the Company will be allowed a federal income tax deduction equal to such amount. While the exercise of an incentive stock option does not result in current taxable income, the excess of the fair market value of the option shares at the time of exercise over the exercise price will be an item of adjustment for purposes of determining the optionee’s alternative minimum taxable income.

Non-incentive Stock Options

There will be no federal income tax consequences to the optionee or to the Company upon the grant of a non-incentive stock option under the Stock Plan. When the optionee exercises a non-incentive stock option, however, he or she will recognize ordinary income in an amount equal to the excess of the fair market value of the stock received upon exercise of the option at the time of exercise over the exercise price, and the Company will be allowed a corresponding federal income tax deduction. Any gain that the optionee realizes when he or she later sells or disposes of the option shares will be short-term or long-term capital gain, depending on how long the shares were held.

Stock Appreciation Rights

A participant receiving a stock appreciation right under the Stock Plan will not recognize income, and the Company will not be allowed a tax deduction, at the time the award is granted. When the participant exercises the stock appreciation right, the amount of cash and the fair market value of any shares of stock received will be ordinary income to the participant and the Company will be allowed a corresponding federal income tax deduction at that time.

Restricted Stock

Unless a participant makes an election to accelerate recognition of the income to the date of grant described below, a participant will not recognize income, and the Company will not be allowed a tax deduction, at the time a restricted stock award is granted, provided that the award is nontransferable and is subject to a substantial risk of forfeiture. When the restrictions lapse, the participant will recognize ordinary income equal to the fair market value of the stock as of that date (less any amount he or she paid for the stock), and the Company will be allowed a corresponding federal income tax deduction at that time, subject to any applicable limitations under Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code. If the participant files an election under Section 83(b) of the Internal Revenue Code within 30 days after the date of grant of the restricted stock, he or she will recognize ordinary income as of the date of grant equal to the fair market value of the stock as of that date (less any amount paid for the stock), and the Company will be allowed a corresponding federal income tax deduction at that time, subject to any applicable limitations under Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code. Any future appreciation in the stock will be taxable to the participant at capital gains rates. However, if the stock is later forfeited, the participant will not be able to recover the tax previously paid pursuant to the Section 83(b) election.

Other Stock-Based Awards

The federal income tax treatment of other stock-based awards will depend on the nature of and restrictions applicable to, the award.

Code Section 409A

The Stock Plan permits the grant of various types of incentive awards, which may or may not be exempt from Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code. If an award is subject to Section 409A, and if the requirements of Section 409A are not met, the taxable events as described above could apply earlier than described, and could result in the imposition of additional taxes and penalties. Restricted stock awards, stock options and stock appreciation rights that comply with the terms of the Stock Plan are designed to be exempt from the application of Section 409A. It is the Company’s intention that any award agreement governing awards subject to Section 409A will comply with these rules.

16


 
 

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Tax Withholding

The Company has the right to make such provisions as it may deem appropriate, consistent with applicable law, in connection with any stock option, stock appreciation right, restricted stock or equity incentive award granted under the Stock Plan with respect to the withholding of any taxes (including income or employment taxes) or any other tax matters.

New Plan Benefits

The selection of employees to receive awards under the Stock Plan will be determined by the board in its discretion. Therefore, the actual value of benefits under the Stock Plan that will be received by any individual or group is not determinable.

The Merger Agreement provides for the merger of Merger Sub with and into SG Blocks, with SG Blocks surviving the merger and becoming a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. Thereafter, the Company will operate under the name “SG Blocks, Inc.”

Upon consummation of the merger, the holders of common stock of SG Blocks will receive an aggregate of 36,050,741 shares of the Company’s common stock. Additionally, Ladenburg will receive in the merger 408,750 shares of the Company’s common stock pursuant to contractual obligations between SG Blocks and Ladenburg. Upon consummation of the merger, all outstanding SG Blocks warrants shall be cancelled and substituted with warrants of similar tenor to purchase an aggregate of 1,145,509 shares of the Company’s common stock.

As a result of the foregoing, the current holders of common stock of the Company will own an aggregate of 8% of the common stock of the Company on a fully diluted basis, the stockholders and warrantholders of SG Blocks will beneficially own an aggregate of 91% of the common stock of the Company on a fully diluted basis and Ladenburg will own an aggregate of 1% of the common stock of the Company on a fully diluted basis (not including warrants to purchase shares of the Company’s stock it will receive in the merger as a result of it currently holding warrants to purchase shares of SG Blocks common stock).

Indemnification

To provide a fund for payment to the Company with respect to its post-closing rights to indemnification under the Merger Agreement, there will be placed in escrow (with an independent escrow agent) 817,500 shares of the Company’s common stock to be received by the holders of SG Blocks common stock. This escrow fund will be the sole remedy for the Company for its rights to indemnification under the Merger Agreement. Claims for indemnification may be asserted against the escrow fund by the Company once its damages exceed a $500,000 deductible and will be reimbursable to the full extent of the damages in excess of such amount up to a maximum of the escrow fund. Claims for indemnification may be asserted until the 5th business day after the Company has filed with the SEC its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2011.

Lock-up Agreements

All of the officers and directors of SG Blocks and each stockholder of SG Blocks currently owning in excess of 20% of the SG Blocks common stock have agreed not to sell their shares for the 12-month period commencing on the consummation of the merger, subject to certain exceptions.

Background of the Merger

The terms of the Merger Agreement are the result of arms’-length negotiations between representatives of the Company and SG Blocks. The following is a brief discussion of the background of these negotiations, the Merger Agreement and related transactions.

In October and December 2010, Ladenburg acted as placement agent for SG Blocks in a private placement and raised aggregate gross proceeds of $2,875,000. In connection with the private placement, SG Blocks agreed that if Ladenburg introduced it to an existing publicly traded company with which to consummate a merger, it would cause Ladenburg to be issued shares of common stock of the combined merger entity equal to 1% of the outstanding shares of such entity on a fully diluted basis. Ladenburg thereafter introduced the Company to SG Blocks.

From December 2010 to February 2011, representatives of the Company and SG Blocks discussed the terms of a potential transaction between the two entities. On February 25, 2011, Graubard Miller, counsel for the Company, sent a draft of a non-binding letter of intent setting forth the proposed terms of the potential transaction to representatives of SG Blocks and its counsel. Between February 25, 2011 and March 21, 2011, the parties negotiated various aspects of the letter of intent. On March 21, 2011, Olshan Grundman Frome Rosenzweig & Wolosky LLP, counsel for SG Blocks, sent a revised draft of the non-binding letter of intent to representatives of the Company.

On March 22, 2011, a meeting of the Company’s board of directors was held. All directors attended, as did, by invitation, Jeffrey M. Gallant of Graubard Miller. Prior to the meeting, a draft of the non-binding letter of intent was delivered to the directors. The board discussed the specific terms of the non-binding letter of intent and the proposed transaction with SG Blocks. The board then determined to move forward with the proposed transaction with SG Blocks and authorized management to execute the non-binding letter of intent. Accordingly, later in the day on March 22, 2011, the parties executed the non-binding letter of intent. The parties then commenced work on the Merger Agreement and related transaction agreements.

On April 4, 2011, counsel for the Company circulated a draft of the Merger Agreement to SG Blocks and its counsel. From April 4, 2011 and proceeding through July 27, 2011, the Company and SG Blocks and their respective counsel negotiated various terms of the transaction and the Merger Agreement.

On July 27, 2011, a meeting of the Company’s board of directors was held to consider approval of the transactions. All directors attended, as did, by invitation, Jeffrey M. Gallant of Graubard Miller. Prior to the meeting, information summarizing the terms and structure of the merger and the Merger Agreement were delivered to the directors, along with the latest draft of the Merger Agreement and other related materials, as well as a draft of the Stock Plan. After considerable review and discussion between the directors, the Merger Agreement and related transactions, including the increase in the number of authorized shares of the Company’s common stock from 25,000,000 shares to 100,000,000 shares, the change of the name of the Company to “SG Blocks, Inc.” and the adoption of the Stock Plan, were unanimously approved by the board.

The Merger Agreement was signed on July 27, 2011. The terms of the Merger Agreement did not differ materially from the terms of the executed non-binding letter of intent. After the close of the markets on July 28, 2011, the Company issued a press release and subsequently filed a Current Report on Form 8-K on August 2, 2011 announcing the execution of the Merger Agreement and discussing the terms of the merger.

On September 8, 2011, the parties amended the Merger Agreement to extend the date on which either party may terminate the agreement if the merger is not consummated by November 30, 2011.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Reasons for the Merger

The Company’s board of directors concluded that the Merger Agreement with SG Blocks was in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders. The following are material factors that were considered by the Company’s board of directors:

SG Blocks’ potential for future growth;
Experience and skills of SG Blocks’ management and availability of additional personnel;
SG Blocks’ competitive position and barriers to entry; and
Costs associated with effecting the transaction.

Appraisal Rights

Under Delaware law, the Company’s stockholders do not have appraisal rights in connection with the merger or the Change of Control.

Anticipated Accounting Treatment

The merger will be accounted for as a “reverse merger” and recapitalization since immediately following the completion of the transaction, the stockholders of SG Blocks immediately prior to the merger will have effective control of the Company through its 91% fully diluted stockholder interest in the combined entity. In addition, through SG Blocks’ 91% fully diluted stockholder interest, SG Blocks will maintain effective control of the combined entity through control of a substantial proportion of the board of directors by maintaining four of the seven board seats. Additionally, all of SG Blocks’ senior executive positions will continue on as management of the combined entity after consummation of the merger. For accounting purposes, SG Blocks will be deemed to be the accounting acquirer in the transaction and, consequently, the transaction will be treated as a recapitalization of SG Blocks. Accordingly, SG Blocks’ assets, liabilities and results of operations will become the historical financial statements of the Company, and the Company’s assets, liabilities and results of operations will be consolidated with SG Blocks effective as of the merger date. No step-up in basis or intangible assets or goodwill will be recorded in this transaction.

Regulatory Matters

The merger and the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement are not subject to any additional federal or state regulatory requirement or approval except for filings with the State of Delaware necessary to effectuate the merger.

Required Vote

Under Delaware law, the Company’s stockholders were not required to vote to approve the Merger Agreement. However, on July 27, 2011, the Company obtained the written consent of a majority of its outstanding common stock approving (i) the Change of Control, (ii) an increase in the number of authorized shares of the Company’s common stock from 25,000,000 shares to 100,000,000 shares, (iii) the change of the name of the Company to “SG Blocks, Inc.” and (iii) the adoption of a 2011 Incentive Stock Plan to be effective upon consummation of the merger. The foregoing eliminated the need for a special stockholder meeting to approve such items.

PRO FORMA INFORMATION

The following unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements give effect to the proposed merger between the Company and SG Blocks and certain other transactions between the Company and SG Blocks as provided for in the Merger Agreement.

On July 27, 2011, the Company and SG Blocks signed the Merger Agreement whereby at the closing 100% of the shares of SG Blocks will be canceled and extinguished and converted into 36,050,741 shares of the Company’s common stock. As a result of the transaction, the former owners of SG Blocks will become the controlling stockholders of the Company. Accordingly, the merger of the Company and SG Blocks is a reverse merger that will be accounted for as a recapitalization of SG Blocks. Upon completion of the merger, the Company will change its name to SG Blocks, Inc. The unaudited pro forma information is presented for illustration purposes only in accordance with the assumptions set forth below and in the notes to the pro forma condensed combined financial statements.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of June 30, 2011 combines the balance sheets of the Company and SG Blocks and gives pro forma effect to: (i) the reverse merger between the Company and SG Blocks in which SG Blocks is deemed to be the acquiring entity for accounting purposes, (ii) 408,750 shares of the Company’s common stock issued to Ladenburg and (iii) certain other transactions completed at the time of the merger as if the Company and SG Blocks completed such transactions as of June 30, 2011. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations for the year ended December 31, 2010 and six months ended June 30, 2011 combine the statement of operations of the Company and SG Blocks for each of those periods and give pro forma effect to these transactions as if they were completed on January 1, 2010 and January 1, 2011, respectively.

The unaudited pro forma balance sheet and statements of operations should be read in conjunction with the separate historical financial statements of the Company and SG Blocks appearing elsewhere herein. These pro forma condensed combined financial statements may not be indicative of what would have occurred if the reverse acquisition had actually occurred on the indicated dates and they should not be relied upon as an indication of future results of operations.

Substance of the transaction

At the closing of the merger:

The Company will issue 36,050,741 shares of common stock with a par value of $0.01 to the shareholders of SG Blocks in exchange for all outstanding shares of SG Blocks common stock.
The Company will issue 408,750 shares of common stock to Ladenburg for merger related consulting fees. The value of these shares was based on valuation models developed by the Company.
All outstanding SG Blocks warrants will be cancelled and substituted with warrants of similar tenor to purchase an aggregate 1,145,509 shares of the Company’s common stock.
The current holders of the Company’s common stock will own an aggregate of 8% of the Company’s common stock on a fully diluted basis, the stockholders and warrant holders of SG Blocks will beneficially own an aggregate of 91% of the common stock of the Company on a fully diluted bases and Ladenburg will own an aggregate of 1% of the common stock of the Company on a fully diluted basis (not including warrants to purchase shares of SG Blocks stock it will receive in the merger as a result of it currently holding warrants to purchase shares of SG Blocks common stock).

OTHER INFORMATION ABOUT THE COMPANY

Business of the Company

The Company is a shell company as defined in Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act and holds limited amounts of cash.

The Company was incorporated in Delaware in December 1993 under the name PC411, Inc. In January 1999, the Company changed its name to CDSI Holdings Inc. to reflect the change in its principal business.

The Company was originally formed to develop an on-line service that transmits name, address, telephone number and other related information digitally to users of personal computers. In November 1998, the Company transferred substantially all of the non-cash assets and certain liabilities used in its on-line data distribution business to ThinkDirectMarketing Inc. (“TDMI”) in exchange for an initial 42.5% interest in that company. The other investors of TDMI included Acxiom Corporation, Cater Barnard plc and TDMI’s management and employees. In January 2002, Dialog Group Inc. (“Dialog”) acquired all the stock of TDMI that it did not already own. In April 2007, the Company sold its remaining 2,800 shares of Dialog Common Stock for $204.

In May 1998, the Company acquired Controlled Distribution Systems, Inc. (“CDS”), which was primarily engaged in marketing and leasing a prepaid, wireless, remote-operated retail inventory control and dispensing system for tobacco products called the Coinexx Star 10. In December 1998, CDS acquired substantially all of the assets of TD Rowe Corporation’s New York cigarette vending route. In February 2000, the Company terminated all operations relating to marketing and leasing the Coinexx Star 10 system. In October 2000, CDS sold the assets of its cigarette vending route, including vending machines and a van.

In November 2003, the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary CDS merged with CDSI Holdings Inc. as the surviving corporation. Since such date, the Company has been seeking new business opportunites.

Facilities

The Company’s corporate offices are located in the executive offices of Vector at 100 S.E. Second Street, Miami, Florida 33131. The Company believes that its current facilities are adequate for the foreseeable future.

Legal Proceedings

There are no legal proceedings pending against the Company.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the Company’s financial statements and related notes thereto included elsewhere in this information statement.

Results of Operations

Revenues

The Company did not generate revenues from operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

Expenses

Expenses associated with corporate activities were $41,210 and $52,042 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, as compared to $9,352 and $17,270 for the same periods in the prior year. The expenses in 2011 consisted of legal expenses associated with the merger with SG Blocks, and other expenses associated with costs necessary to maintain a public company, which consist primarily of directors’ fees, accounting fees, and stock transfer fees. The expenses in 2010 were primarily associated with costs necessary to maintain a public company, which consist primarily of directors’ fees, accounting fees, and stock transfer fees.

Other income (expenses)

Interest expense was $1,613 and $4,323 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, compared to interest expense of $624 and $1,245 for the same periods in the prior year. Included in the increase in interest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2011 was the impact of an error identified by the Company, which resulted in an out-of-period adjustment of approximately $1,390. The error was a mathematical error made in the fourth quarter of 2010. The Company assessed the materiality of this error on the 2010 financial statements in accordance with ASC 250-10-S99-1 and concluded that the error was immaterial to such financial statements. The Company does not believe the impact of correcting the error in the current year will be material to the Company’s 2011 financial statements. This adjustment was recognized within interest expense in the condensed statement of operations. In addition, interest expense increased due to additional borrowings from the Company’s revolving credit promissory note entered into in March 2009.

The recovery of unclaimed property relates to refunds receivable for unclaimed property in a state where the Company previously conducted business. In December 2009, the Company filed for refunds of approximately $2,800 and in July 2010 was notified that the refund claims had been approved for payment.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

At June 30, 2011, the Company had an accumulated deficit of approximately $8.4 million. The Company has reported an operating loss in each of its fiscal quarters since inception and the Company expects to continue to incur operating losses in the immediate future. The Company has reduced operating expenses and has been seeking acquisition and investment opportunities. No assurance can be given that the Company will not continue to incur operating losses.

The Company has limited available cash, limited cash flow, and limited liquid assets. The Company has not been able to generate sufficient cash from operations and, as a consequence, financing has been required to fund ongoing operations. Since completion of the Company’s initial public offering of its common stock (the “IPO”) in May 1997, the Company has primarily financed its operations with the net proceeds of the IPO. The funds were used to complete the introduction of the PC411 Service over the Internet, to expand marketing, sales and advertising, to develop or acquire new services or databases, to acquire CDS and for general corporate purposes.

Cash used for operations for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 was $23,156 and $21,194, respectively. The increase is associated with the timing of payments of accounts payable and accrued liabilities. The Company evaluates its accruals on a quarterly basis and makes adjustments when appropriate.

Cash provided from financing activities was $31,000 and $30,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. In the first six months of 2011, cash provided from financing activities was from borrowings under the revolving credit agreement of $31,000. In the first six months of 2010, cash provided from financing activities was from the proceeds from the sale of common stock of $15,000 and borrowings under the revolving credit agreement of $15,000.

The Company does not expect significant capital expenditures during the year ended December 31, 2011.

At June 30, 2011, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $13,430.

Inflation and changing prices had no material impact on revenues or the results of operations for the periods ended June 30, 2011 and 2010.

In March 2009, the Company entered into a revolving credit promissory note where its principal stockholder, Vector, agreed to lend the Company $50,000 to meet its liquidity requirements over the next twelve months. The facility bears interest at 11% per annum and is due on December 31, 2012. On January 26, 2011, the Company and Vector entered into an amendment to the revolving credit promissory note increasing the amount that the Company may borrow thereunder from $50,000 to $100,000. The facility had a balance of $68,500 at June 30, 2011. Accrued interest on the revolving credit promissory note was $8,253 as of June 30, 2011. Interest expense on the facility was $1,613 and $4,323 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, compared to interest expense of $624 and $1,245 for the same periods in the prior year.

BUSINESS OF SG BLOCKS

Overview

On October 25, 2010, SG LLC, a Missouri limited liability company, merged with and into SG Blocks, which now continues the business of SG LLC (the “Conversion Merger”). SG LLC was formed on January 23, 2007 and SG Blocks was formed on August 16, 2010. SG Blocks was not engaged in any business prior to the Conversion Merger.

The principal business of SG Blocks is to provide code engineered cargo shipping containers. SG Blocks modifies and delivers containers to meet the growing demand for safe and green construction. Rather than consuming new steel and lumber, SG Blocks capitalizes on the structural engineering and design parameters a shipping container must meet and repurposes them for use in building. Offering a product that typically exceeds building code requirements, SG Blocks seeks to enable developers, architects, builders and owners to achieve greener construction, faster execution and stronger buildings of higher value. Since its inception in 2007, SG Blocks has developed and implemented the technology to break away from standardized container-construction while maintaining reduced costs. Committed to providing a construction methodology that will lessen the global carbon footprint, SG Blocks does not simply recycle (which requires additional energy consumption to break down material and then reform it for another purposes) — it utilizes existing steel material and repurposes it into modules that can be put to a higher and better use with significantly less energy input. In addition to providing code engineered cargo shipping containers for construction use, SG Blocks also continues to advance a patent pending structural steel framing system and the use thereof.

SG Blocks’ products have been featured in reports by several leading media outlets including USA Today, CNN, Washington Post, ABC World News, NBC Nightly News and Bob Vila. In addition, Popular Mechanics selected one of SG Blocks’ buildings as a “best green design” in its April 2009 edition.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Description of Business

SG Blocks first selects shipping containers appropriate for the project, often that have reached the end of their useful life. These durable steel containers are then designed, proprietarily engineered and manufactured into a modified structure which is referred to in this “Description of Business” section as “SG BlocksTM”. A combination of engineering and architecture are used to make the containers adaptable for a wide variety of uses including housing, office buildings, barracks, hotels, schools, dormitories, hospitals, clinics and institutional facilities.

From a design perspective, SG BlocksTM can be used to build virtually any style of construction, from traditional to modern. SG BlocksTM can be delivered with a highly durable surface finish or ready to be clad with any type of standard or green technology friendly building skin.

SG BlocksTM have a particular application in meeting safe and sustainable housing needs in the United States and globally. The building system is designed to meet the needs of builders, developers, government officials, urban planners, architects, and engineers looking for fast and affordable alternatives that meet safe housing needs and standards, particularly in hurricane and earthquake prone areas. Criteria and testing processes have been developed to evaluate each container. Conversion and assembly is subjected to quality control, making the containers “code-ready.” Conformance with International Code Council requirements is an ongoing objective as this standard is used by a vast majority of governmental jurisdictions in the United States.

SG Blocks is a hands-off supplier. Partners, affiliates and customers carry the responsibility for container storage, modification, transportation and welding, leaving SG Blocks to manage the logistical task of coordinating the efforts of its strategic partners. These alliances help SG Blocks maintain a steady supply of containers available around the world. SG Blocks is actively exploring international opportunities, including in Brazil where it has formed a subsidiary.

Green Building

There is a worldwide movement toward green and carbon neutrality. Sustainable or “green” building is the practice of designing, constructing, operating, maintaining and removing buildings in ways that conserve natural resources and reduce their impact on climate change. Builders are increasingly incorporating “green” components in all projects as they adopt the LEED system, a third-party certification program and the nationally accepted benchmark for the design, construction and operation of high performance green buildings. SG Blocks believes its structural system contributes significantly towards LEED certification, and help minimize the wasteful practices of traditional construction methods.

Description of the Product

SG Blocks’ structural building system represents a change from the way buildings have typically been built in the past. It also represents a contribution to the greening of the building industry with the advancement of new technology. Of great importance to the technology is the recycling of standard shipping containers. Intermodal containers generally come in either 40 foot or 20 foot long units that are either 8’6” (standard cube) or 9’6” (high cube).

The payload rating in a shipping configuration for a 40 foot container is roughly 60,000 pounds. The payload rating normally associated with residential or commercial structures is in most cases half of that amount. These units are designed for 9-high stacking aboard ships. The structures in this condition need to be able to withstand 15 long tons of load transversely and 7.5 long tons longitudinally. This far exceeds any gravity or lateral loads a normal residential or commercial building will ever experience.

This strong structure is the beginning of the SG Blocks building system. Various combinations as desired of siding, brick, and stucco can be added and the interior finished as any conventional structure would be. Upon completion, structures look and feel as if they were erected using traditional construction methods. However, the SG Blocks product is generally stronger, more durable, environmentally sensitive, and finished in less time than traditional construction methods.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

The Process of the SG Blocks Conversion

Containers are selected, tested and evaluated against SG Blocks’ engineering, environmental, and utilization criteria and standards. The used containers are then certified as SG Blocks, ready for the manufacturing and fabrication processes. SG Blocks then provides specific and detailed engineering and fabrication details and modifies the containers in various configurations which often require structural changes, wall reconfigurations, the creation of window and door openings, and ceiling alterations to allow sheetrock hanging. The exterior walls and roof structure are then insulated with a high tech waterproof ceramic insulation. The SG Blocks are then shipped directly to the building site or are run through a modular factory and then delivered to the site. The builder places them into position on their foundation and connects them together by welding. The builder may then add roof trusses or other roof systems, and quickly the builder has an insulated structure under roof. The potential for savings in building time can be significant, particularly if interior pre-finish modularization is introduced at this step.

Historical Use of Shipping Containers in Construction

Although shipping containers have been reused as building structures since their introduction in the 1950s, such applications have been limited. Typically, shipping containers have been reused to provide temporary shelter or storage. However, the idea of fabricating containers in large quantities for the building sector market is a relatively novel idea.

Over the past few years, several companies and individuals have been touting the use of shipping containers for construction purposes. Very few, however, have actually designed and built structures to meet building code requirements. In contrast, SG Blocks has already completed projects for the US Military, municipalities and Fortune 500 companies. As a result, SG Blocks believes it is positioned as the leader in this new technology industry.

SG Blocks believes it has debunked the architectural notion that structures built with containers look as if they were built with containers. Through concentrated education and promotion, SG Blocks believes that it has already begun to position its concept into the vocabulary of the architecture and building industries.

Competition

The building industry is highly competitive. SG Blocks competes against numerous local, regional, national and international builders and others in the real estate business around the world. Going forward SG Blocks is committed to further educating the building community on the benefits of its technology to illustrate SG Blocks is more of a complement to than competition for builders. SG Blocks may compete for investment opportunities, financing, available land, raw materials and skilled labor with entities that possess greater financial, marketing and other resources than it does. Competition may increase if there is future consolidation in the land development and building industry or from new building technologies that could arise. Additionally, many of those working with containers focus on the architecture and design element. As they are not fabricators, SG Blocks can provide the final product.

SG Blocks believes that it can distinguish itself from its competitors on the basis of cost and construction time. SG Blocks’ construction method is typically 10% to 20% less expensive than traditional construction methods, particularly in urban locations and multi-story projects. Construction time is typically reduced by 30 – 40% using SG Blocks’ construction method, reducing construction and soft costs substantially. The SG Blocks are designed to be hurricane, tornado and blast resistant, able to withstand harsh climate conditions and their flexibility of construction allows architects, developers, and owners to design the product to meet their needs.

Having already worked with regulatory agencies and obtained jurisdictional approvals from building departments, SG Blocks has gained practical experience needed to complement its engineering, architectural and technological knowledge. Standard permit approvals at the municipal level is the principal compliance and approval requirement for SG Blocks.

Intellectual Property

The creation of a proprietary, patentable intellectual property platform, driven by technological innovation, is a central strategy and a key differentiator for SG Blocks. This use of advanced technology is positioning SG Blocks as a primary resource for container based structure information and support. Such advanced application of technology creates a valuable marketing and closing tool for leads, a barrier to competitive entry, and is a cornerstone in the strategic development of SG Blocks’ global, scalable business platform. SG Blocks is now routinely called upon to provide the product for innovative architects who design container based systems. SG Blocks relies primarily on trade secrets to protect its intellectual property and proprietary technology at this time.

The SGB Network

Two of SG Blocks’ most important affiliates are also shareholders:

ConGlobal Industries, Inc. (“ConGlobal”), one of the largest depot operators in the United States, operates 17 container repair and storage depots in 14 U.S. cities, Costa Rica and Mexico, catering to major shipping, leasing and freight movement companies around the world. With a national capacity of over 600 acres, the ConGlobal network of maintenance depots currently handles over 6,500 containers per week and can accommodate at least 170,000 TEU’s (twenty-foot equivalent unit). SG Blocks’ currently has an exclusive 10 year contract with ConGlobal. Each depot is equipped with the resources to modify used shipping containers into SG Blocks’ green building material.
Lawrence Group is a architectural, interior design and planning firm. It has over 200 employees in six states and China, with over 100 designers, 39 interior designers and 28 LEED accredited professionals. Lawrence Group acts as an in-house architectural resource for SG Blocks.

SG Blocks has nine employees, not including Brian Wasserman who is serving as the Chief Financial Officer of SG Blocks pursuant to a consulting agreement. SG Blocks also hires independent contractors on an as-needed basis.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Interest Expense

Interest expense for the year ended December 31, 2010 was $ 396,155 compared to $81,083 for the year ended December 31, 2009. This increase results from the beneficial conversion feature embedded in the convertible notes and related debt discount and contractual interest on increased borrowings.

Other income (expense)

During 2010 there was other income recognized from a cancellation of trade liabilities and accrued interest of $73,057 while there were no such debt cancellations during 2009. Additionally in 2010 there was other income of $9,275 recognized due to a change in fair value of derivative conversion option liabilities.

Income Tax Benefit

A 100% valuation allowance was provided against the deferred tax asset consisting of available net operating loss carry forwards and accordingly no income tax benefit was provided.

Revenue

Revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2011 was $2,592,683 compared to $1,256,042 for the six months ended June 30, 2010. This increase of $1,336,641 results from an increase of $1,805,004 in block “green steel” sales reduced by $468,363 of lower sales in engineering and project management jobs.

Cost of Revenue and Gross Profit

Cost of revenue increased by $1,365,504 to $2,217,313 for the six months ended June 30, 2011 from $851,809 for the six months ended June 20, 2010. The increase in cost of revenue results from an increase in sales offset by a decrease in the gross profit percentage. Gross profit decreased to $375,370 for the six months ended June 20, 2011 from a gross profit of $404,233 for the six months ended June 30, 2010. The gross profit percentage was 14.5% for the six months ended June 30, 2011 as compared to a gross profit percentage of 32.2% for the six months ended June 30, 2010. This decrease in gross profit percentage results from a decrease in the gross profit percent in block “green steel” sales (from 32.5% during the period in 2010 compared to 13.7% during the period in 2011) offset by an increase in gross profit percent in project management (from 28.8% during the period in 2010 to 41.6% during the period in 2011) and engineering (from 50.6% during the period in 2010 to 83.0% during the period in 2011).

Compensation

Compensation expense was relatively unchanged for the six months ended June 30, 2011 ($468,597) compared to compensation expense for the six months ended June 30, 2010 ($465,648).

Other Operating Expenses

Other operating expense for the six months ended June 30, 2011 was $522,302 compared to $213,764 for the six months ended June 30, 2010. The increase of $308,538 results from an increase of approximately (i) $58,000 in consulting and professional fees, (ii) $78,000 in marketing costs, (iii) $44,000 in travel and entertainment expenses, and (iv) $130,000 of general and administrative expenses.

Interest Expense

Interest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2011 was $2,034 compared to $94,905 for the six months ended June 30, 2010. This decrease results from the maturity and payment or conversion of outstanding interest bearing debts.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Other income (expense)

During the six months ended June 30, 2011 and June 30, 2010 there was other income recognized from (1) cancellation of trade liabilities and unpaid interest of $30,498 and $41,982, respectively and (2) a change in the fair value of the warrant liability of $1,929 and $0, respectively.

Income Tax Benefit

A 100% valuation allowance was provided against the deferred tax asset consisting of available net operating loss carry forwards and accordingly no income tax benefit was provided.

Impact of Inflation

The impact of inflation upon SG Blocks’ revenue and income/(loss) from continuing operations during each of the past two fiscal years has not been material to its financial position or results of operations for those years because SG Blocks does not maintain any inventories whose costs are affected by inflation.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Since SG Blocks’ inception in 2008, SG Blocks has generated losses from operations and it anticipates that it will continue to generate losses from operations for the foreseeable future. As of December 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009, SG Blocks’ stockholders’ equity/(deficit) was approximately $440,200 and ($1,191,200), respectively. SG Blocks’ net loss from operations for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009 was $ 933,858 and $218,137, respectively. Net cash used in operating activities was $804,405 and $745,906 for the years ended December 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively. Operations since inception have been funded with the proceeds from equity and debt financings and sales activity. As of December 31, 2010, SG Blocks had cash, cash equivalents of $1,038,661. SG Blocks anticipates that its existing capital resources will enable it to continue operations through at least July 1, 2012.

SG Blocks incurred a net loss of $1,247,644 for the year ended December 31, 2010. SG Blocks’ cash balance as of December 31, 2010 was $1,038,661 and SG Blocks had working capital as of that date of $435,793. Cash used in SG Blocks’ operating activities amounted to $804,405 for the year ended December 31, 2010.

SG Blocks has funded its working capital needs primarily by the issuance of debt and common stock. During 2009, SG Blocks generated net cash proceeds of $1,027,858 from the issuance of notes payable and capital contributions. During 2009, SG Blocks paid off $124,834 of outstanding notes payable. During 2010, SG Blocks generated net cash proceeds of $2,739,797 from the issuance of notes payable and issuance of common stock. During 2010, SG Blocks paid off $999,224 of outstanding notes payable. Also, from January 1, 2011 to June 14, 2011 SG Blocks generated net cash proceeds of $1,200,000 from the issuance of common stock.

Based on the recent progress SG Blocks made in the execution of its business plan, SG Blocks believes that its currently available cash, which includes funds it expects to generate from operations, will enable it to operate its business through at least July 1, 2012. However, SG Blocks will require additional capital in order to execute the longer term aspects of its business plan. If SG Blocks is unable to raise additional capital or encounter unforeseen circumstances that place constraints on its capital resources, SG Blocks will be required to take various measures to conserve liquidity, which could include, but not necessarily be limited to, curtailing its business development activities or suspending the pursuit of its business plan. SG Blocks cannot provide any assurance that it will raise additional capital. SG Blocks has not secured any commitments for new financing at this time, nor can it provide any assurance that new financing will be available to it on acceptable terms, if at all.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

As of December, 2010 and June 30, 2011, SG Blocks had no material off-balance sheet arrangements other than operating leases.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

In the ordinary course of business, SG Blocks enters into agreements with third parties that include indemnification provisions which, in its judgment, are normal and customary for companies in its industry sector. These agreements are typically with consultants and certain vendors. Pursuant to these agreements, SG Blocks generally agrees to indemnify, hold harmless, and reimburse indemnified parties for losses suffered or incurred by the indemnified parties with respect to actions taken or omitted by SG Blocks. The maximum potential amount of future payments SG Blocks could be required to make under these indemnification provisions is unlimited. SG Blocks has not incurred material costs to defend lawsuits or settle claims related to these indemnification provisions. As a result, the estimated fair value of liabilities relating to these provisions is minimal. Accordingly, SG Blocks has no liabilities recorded for these provisions as of December 31, 2010.

Critical Accounting Estimates and New Accounting Pronouncements

Critical Accounting Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principals generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts and related disclosures in the financial statements. Management considers an accounting estimate to be critical if it requires assumptions to be made that were uncertain at the time the estimate was made, and changes in the estimate or different estimates that could have been selected could have a material impact on our consolidated results of operations or financial condition.

Share-Based Payments.  SG Blocks adopted authoritative accounting guidance which establishes standards for share-based transactions in which it receives employee's services in exchange for equity instruments, such as common stock. These authoritative accounting standards require that SG Blocks expense the fair value of stock options and similar awards, as measured on the awards' grant date.

SG Blocks estimates the value of stock awards using valuation models developed by it. The determination of the fair value of share-based payment awards on the date of grant is affected by SG Blocks’ stock price as determined by the valuation model and the assumptions used regarding a number of complex and subjective variables.

If factors change and SG Blocks employs different assumptions in the application of the relevant accounting guidance in future periods, the compensation expense that it records may differ significantly from what it has recorded in the current period. There is a high degree of subjectivity involved when using determining the fair value of our stock to estimate share-based compensation. Consequently, there is a risk that SG Blocks’ estimates of the fair values of its share-based compensation awards on the grant dates may bear little resemblance to the actual values realized upon the exercise, expiration, early termination or forfeiture of those share-based payments. Employee stock grants may be forfeited as worthless or otherwise result in zero value as compared to the fair values originally estimated on the grant date and reported in SG Blocks’ financial statements. Alternatively, value may be realized from these instruments that are significantly in excess of the fair values originally estimated on the grant date and reported in SG Blocks’ financial statements.

Derivative Instruments.  Since inception, SG Blocks has issued warrants to purchase its common stock and convertible notes. In accordance with current accounting guidelines, SG Blocks has treated these derivative financial instruments as liabilities on its balance sheet, measured at fair value at issuance date, and re-measured at fair value on each reporting date. SG Blocks records changes in the fair value of these derivative liabilities in income or loss on each balance sheet date. SG Blocks uses both a Black-Scholes option and lattice pricing model, which uses the underlying price of its common stock as one of the inputs to determine the fair value at issuance date and at each subsequent reporting period. As a result, the fair value of the derivative instruments is impacted by changes in the market price of its common stock. The market price of its common stock can be volatile and is subject to factors beyond SG Blocks’ control. These factors include, but are not limited to, trends in the industry in which SG Blocks operates, the market of OTC Bulletin Board quoted stocks in general and sales of SG Blocks’ common stock. As a result, the value of its common stock may change from measurement date to measurement date, thereby resulting in f1uctuations in the fair value of the derivative instruments, which can materially impact its operating results.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Revenue Recognition.  SG Blocks accounts for its long-term contracts associated with the design, engineering, manufacture and project management of building projects and related services, using the percentage-of-completion accounting method. Under this method, revenue is recognized based on the extent of progress towards completion of the long-term contract.

Contract costs include all direct material and labor costs and those indirect costs related to contract performance. General and administrative costs, marketing and business development expenses and pre-project expenses are charged to expense as incurred. Provisions for estimated losses on uncompleted contracts are made in the period in which such losses are determined. Changes in job performance, job conditions and estimated profitability, including those arising from contract penalty provisions, and final contract settlements may result in revisions to costs and income and are recognized in the period in which the revisions are determined. An amount equal to contract costs attributable to claims is included in revenue when realization is probable and the amount can be reliably estimated.

The asset, “Costs and estimated earnings in excess of billing on uncompleted contracts,” represents revenue recognized in excess of amounts billed. The liability, “Billings in excess of costs and estimated earnings on uncompleted contracts,” represents billing in excess of revenue recognized.

SG Blocks offers a one-year warranty on completed contracts. SG Blocks has not incurred any losses to date and nor does it anticipate incurring any losses for warranties that are currently outstanding. Accordingly no warranty reserve is considered necessary for any of the periods presented.

SG Blocks also supplies repurposed containers to its customers. In these cases, SG Blocks serves as a supplier to its customers for standard and made to order products that it sells at fixed prices. Revenue from these contracts is generally recognized when the products have been delivered to the customer, accepted by the customer and collection is reasonably assured. Revenue is recognized upon completion of the following: an order for product is received from a customer; written approval for the payment schedule is received from the customer and the corresponding required deposit or payments are received; a common carrier signs documentation accepting responsibility for the unit as agent for the customer; and the unit is delivered to the customer’s shipping point.

Amounts billed to customers in a sales transaction for shipping and handling are classified as revenue. Products sold are generally paid for based on schedules provided for in each individual customer contract including upfront deposits and progress payments as products are being manufactured.

Funds received in advance of meeting the criteria for revenue recognition are deferred and are recorded as revenue when they are earned.

New Accounting Pronouncements

In January 2010, FASB issued ASU No. 2010-06 — Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements. This update provides amendments to Subtopic 820-10 that requires new disclosure as follows: 1) Transfers in and out of Levels 1 and 2 fair value measurements. A reporting entity should disclose separately the amounts of significant transfers in and out of Level 1 and Level 2 fair value measurements and describe the reasons for the transfers. 2) Activity in Level 3 fair value measurements. In the reconciliation for fair value measurements using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3), a reporting entity should present separately information about purchases, sales, issuances, and settlements (that is, on a gross basis rather than as one net number). This update provides amendments to Subtopic 820-10 that clarifies existing disclosures as follows: 1) Level of disaggregation. A reporting entity should provide fair value measurement disclosures for each class of assets and liabilities. A class is often a subset of assets or liabilities within a line item in the statement of financial position. A reporting entity needs to use judgment in determining the appropriate classes of assets and liabilities. 2) Disclosures about inputs and valuation techniques. A reporting entity should provide disclosures about the valuation techniques and inputs used to measure fair value for both recurring and nonrecurring fair value measurements. Those disclosures are required for fair value measurements that fall in either Level 2 or Level 3. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on SG Blocks’ consolidated financial statements.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

In February 2010, FASB issued ASU No. 2010-9 — Amendments to Certain Recognition and Disclosure Requirements. This update addresses certain implementation issues related to an entity’s requirement to perform and disclose subsequent-events procedures and removes the requirement that public companies disclose the date of their financial statements in both issued and revised financial statements. According to the FASB, the revised statements include those that have been changed to correct an error or conform to a retrospective application of U.S. GAAP. The adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact on SG Blocks’ consolidated financial statements.

In March 2010, FASB issued ASU No. 2010-11 — Scope Exception Related to Embedded Credit Derivatives. Embedded credit-derivative features related only to the transfer of credit risk in the form of subordination of one financial instrument to another are not subject to potential bifurcation and separate accounting as clarified by recently issued FASB guidance. Other embedded credit-derivative features are required to be analyzed to determine whether they must be accounted for separately. This update provides guidance on whether embedded credit-derivative features in financial instruments issued by structures such as collateralized debt obligations (CDOs) and synthetic CDOs are subject to bifurcation and separate accounting. The guidance is effective at the beginning of a company’s first fiscal quarter beginning after June 15, 2010. SG Blocks does not expect the adoption of this ASU to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In April 2010, the FASB issued ASU No. 2010-13, Compensation — Stock Compensation: Effect of Denominating the Exercise Price of a Share-Based Payment Award in the Currency of the Market in Which the Underlying Equity Security Trades. ASU 2010-13 clarifies that a share-based payment award with an exercise price denominated in the currency of a market in which a substantial portion of the entity’s equity securities trades should not be considered to contain a condition that is not a market, performance, or service condition. Therefore, such an award should not be classified as a liability if it otherwise qualifies as equity. ASU 2010-13 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning on or after December 15, 2010, with early adoption permitted. SG Blocks is currently evaluating the potential impact of this standard.

In May 2011, FASB issued ASU No. 2011.04, “Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820) — Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRSs.” This ASU addresses fair value measurement and disclosure requirements within Accounting Standards Codification Topic 820 for the purpose of providing consistency and common meaning between U.S. GAAP and IFRSs. Generally, this ASU is not intended to change the application of the requirements in Topic 820. Rather, this ASU primarily changes the wording to describe many of the requirements in U.S. GAAP for measuring fair value or for disclosing information about fair value measurements. This ASU is effective for periods beginning after December 15, 2011. It is not expected to have any material impact on SG Blocks’ consolidated financial statements or disclosures.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Stockholders and Board of Directors of
CDSI Holdings Inc.:

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of CDSI Holdings Inc. (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, and the related statements of operations, stockholders’ equity (deficiency), and cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended December 31, 2010. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the CDSI Holdings, Inc. as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended December 31, 2010 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United State of America.

Notes to Financial Statements

(1) Business and Organization

CDSI Holdings Inc. (the “Company” or “CDSI”) was incorporated in Delaware on December 29, 1993 and is a shell company as defined in Rule 12b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. On January 12, 1999, the Company’s stockholders voted to change the corporate name of the Company from PC411, Inc. to CDSI Holdings Inc. Prior to May 1998, the Company’s principal business was an on-line electronic delivery information service that transmits name, address, telephone number and other related information digitally to users of personal computers (the “PC411 Service”). In May 1998, the Company acquired Controlled Distribution Systems, Inc. (“CDS”), a company engaged in the marketing and leasing of an inventory control system for tobacco products. In February 2000, CDSI announced CDS will no longer actively engage in the business of marketing and leasing the inventory control system. In November 2003, the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary CDS merged with the Company as the surviving corporation.

At December 31, 2010, the Company had an accumulated deficit of approximately $8,301,064. The Company has reported an operating loss in each of its fiscal quarters since inception and it expects to continue to incur operating losses in the immediate future. The Company has reduced operating expenses and is seeking acquisition and investment opportunities. There is a risk the Company will continue to incur operating losses.

CDSI intends to seek new business opportunities. As CDSI has only limited cash resources, CDSI’s ability to complete any acquisition or investment opportunities it may identify will depend on its ability to raise additional financing, as to which there can be no assurance. There can be no assurance that the Company will successfully identify, complete or integrate any future acquisition or investment, or that acquisitions or investments, if completed, will contribute favorably to its operations and future financial condition.

(2) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include money market funds with a maturity of three months or less.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The fair values of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents and accrued expenses approximate their carrying values due to the relatively short maturities of these instruments. The carrying value of the Revolving Credit Promissory Note is estimated to approximate fair value as the stated note approximates its fair value.

Income Taxes

The Company utilizes the liability method of accounting for deferred income taxes. Under the liability method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the difference between the financial statement and tax basis of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse.

Computation of Basic and Diluted Net Loss per Share

Basic net loss per share of common stock has been computed by dividing the net loss applicable to common shareholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the year. Diluted loss per share is computed by dividing net loss applicable to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding, increased by the assumed conversion of other potentially dilutive securities during the period.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Basis of Presentation

Certain reclassifications have been made to the 2009 financial information to conform to the 2010 presentation.

Concentrations of Risks

Financial instruments which potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash held in overnight money market accounts. The Company has no formal policy requiring collateral to support the financial instruments subject to credit risk.

Subsequent Events

On March 26, 2009, the Company and Vector entered into a $50,000 Revolving Credit Promissory Note (the “Revolver”) due December 31, 2012. The loan bears interest at 11% per annum and is due on December 31, 2012. On January 26, 2011, The Company and Vector entered into an amendment to the Revolver increasing the amount that we may borrow thereunder from $50,000 to $100,000.

The Company has evaluated subsequent events through January 31, 2011, the date which the financial statements were available to be issued.

(3) Investments and Fair Value Measurements

The Company utilizes a three-tier framework for assets and liabilities required to be measured at fair value. In addition, the Company uses valuation techniques, such as the market approach (comparable market prices), the income approach (present value of future income or cash flow), and the cost approach (cost to replace the service capacity of an asset or replacement cost) to value these assets and liabilities as appropriate. The Company uses an exit price when determining the fair value. The exit price represents amounts that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants.

The Company utilizes a three-tier fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three broad levels. The following is a brief description of those three levels:

 
Level 1   Observable inputs such as quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2   Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the assets or liability, either directly or indirectly. These include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets and quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active.
Level 3   Unobservable inputs in which there is little market data, which requires the reporting entity to develop their own assumptions

This hierarchy requires the use of observable market data, when available, and to minimize the use of unobservable inputs when determining fair value.

The Company’s population of recurring financial assets and liabilities subject to fair value measurements and the necessary disclosures consists of approximately $0 and $7,096 of cash invested in a money market fund as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

(3) Investments and Fair Value Measurements – (continued)

The fair value determination of the money market fund is a Level 1 asset under the fair value hierarchy. The money market fund is invested in Treasury Funds with quoted prices in active markets.

(4) Related Party Transactions

Certain accounting and related finance functions are performed on behalf of the Company by employees of the Company’s principal stockholder, Vector Group Ltd. (“Vector”). Expenses incurred relating to these functions are allocated to the Company and paid as incurred to Vector based on management’s best estimate of the cost involved. The amounts allocated were immaterial for all periods presented herein.

On March 26, 2009, the Company and Vector entered into a $50,000 Revolving Credit Promissory Note (the “Revolver”) due December 31, 2012. The loan bears interest at 11% per annum and is due on December 31, 2012. There was a balance $37,500 outstanding under the Revolver at December 31, 2010. Interest expense on the Revolver was $2,510 and $1,422 for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. On January 26, 2011, The Company and Vector entered into an amendment to the Revolver increasing the amount that we may borrow thereunder from $50,000 to $100,000.

(5) Issuance of Common Stock

On April 23, 2010, the Company entered into a stock purchase agreement pursuant to which the Company sold 150,000 shares of the Company’s common stock (the “Shares”) for an aggregate purchase price of $15,000, or $0.10 per Share. The Shares are restricted securities and no registration rights have been granted. The issuance of the Shares was exempt from the registration requirements under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, pursuant to Section 4(2) thereof, because the transaction did not involve a public offering.

(6) Stock Options

The Company granted equity compensation under its 1997 Stock Option Plan (the “1997 Plan”), which expired on January 29, 2007 and provided for the grant of options to purchase the Company’s stock to the employees and directors of the Company. The term of the options granted under the 1997 Plan was limited to 10 years from the date of grant.

The Company accounts for stock options by estimating at the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model.

The final outstanding 9,000 options granted under the 1997 Plan to acquire shares of common stock expired during 2009.

A summary of the Company’s stock option activity is as follows:

(7) Preferred Stock

The Company has the authority to issue 5,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock, which may be issued from time to time in one or more series.

(8) Income Taxes

During the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, the Company had no income and therefore made no provision for Federal and state income taxes.

At December 31, 2010 and 2009, the Company had approximately $7,093,000 and $7,060,000, respectively, of net operating loss carryforwards for federal and state tax reporting purposes available to offset future taxable income, if any; such carryforwards expire between 2011 and 2030 (federal) and 2011 and 2030 (state). Deferred tax assets and liabilities principally relate to net operating loss carryforwards and aggregate approximately $2,500,000 before valuation allowance. In assessing the realizability of the net deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. As of December 31, 2010, the Company has provided a full valuation allowance against net deferred tax assets due to the Company’s uncertainty of future taxable income against which the deferred tax asset may be utilized. Accordingly, no deferred tax asset has been recorded on the accompanying balance sheet.

(1) Business and Organization

CDSI Holdings Inc. (the “Company” or “CDSI”) was incorporated in Delaware on December 29, 1993 and is a shell company as defined in Rule 12b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. On January 12, 1999, the Company’s stockholders voted to change the corporate name of the Company from PC411, Inc. to CDSI Holdings Inc. Prior to May 1998, the Company’s principal business was an on-line electronic delivery information service that transmitted name, address, telephone number and other related information digitally to users of personal computers (the “PC411 Service”). In May 1998, the Company acquired Controlled Distribution Systems, Inc. (“CDS”), a company engaged in the marketing and leasing of an inventory control system for tobacco products. In February 2000, CDSI announced CDS would no longer actively engage in the business of marketing and leasing the inventory control system. In November 2003, the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary CDS merged with the Company as the surviving corporation.

At June 30, 2011, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $8,357,429. The Company has reported an operating loss in each of its fiscal quarters since inception and it expects to continue to incur operating losses in the immediate future. There is a risk the Company will continue to incur operating losses.

Through June 30, 2011, CDSI was seeking acquisition and investment opportunities. On July 27, 2011, CDSI entered into a Merger Agreement and Plan of Reorganization (the “Merger Agreement”) by and among CDSI, CDSI Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of CDSI (“Merger Sub”), SG Blocks, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“SG Blocks”), and certain stockholders of SG Blocks (“Signing Stockholders”). See Note 6. Upon the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, Merger Sub will be merged with and into SG Blocks, with SG Blocks surviving the merger and becoming a wholly-owned subsidiary of CDSI. As CDSI has only limited cash resources, CDSI’s ability to complete the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement or any other acquisition or investment opportunities it may identify will depend on its ability to raise additional financing, as to which there can be no assurance. There can be no assurance that the Company will successfully complete or integrate any acquisition or investment, or that acquisitions or investments, if completed, will contribute favorably to its operations and future financial condition.

(2) Principles of Reporting

The condensed financial statements of the Company as of June 30, 2011 presented herein have been prepared by the Company and are unaudited. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position as of June 30, 2011 and the results of operations and cash flows for all periods presented, have been made. Results for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results for the entire year.

These unaudited condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2010 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (Commission File No. 000-22563).

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the unaudited condensed financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the unaudited condensed financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

(3) Other Income

The Company recorded other income of $2,825 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010 due to the recovery of unclaimed property.

(4) Comprehensive Loss

The Company's comprehensive loss was $42,823 and $56,365 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively. The Company's comprehensive loss was $7,151 and $15,690 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, respectively.

(5) Related Party Transactions

There was a balance of $68,500 and $37,500 outstanding under the 11% Revolving Credit Promissory Note (the “Revolver”) due 2012 at June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively. Accrued interest on the Revolver was $8,253 as of June 30, 2011. Interest expense on the Revolver was $1,613 and $624 for the three months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. Interest on the Revolver was $4,323 and $1,245 for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. Included in the increase in interest expense in the 2011 six-month period was the impact of an error identified by the Company, which resulted in an out-of-period adjustment of approximately $1,390. The error was a mathematical error made in the fourth quarter of 2010. The Company assessed the materiality of this error on the 2010 financial statements in accordance with ASC 250-10-S99-1 and concluded that the error was immaterial to such financial statements. The impact of correcting this error in the current year will not be material to the Company’s 2011 financial statements. This adjustment was recognized within interest expense in the condensed statement of operations.

On January 26, 2011, the Company and Vector entered into an amendment to the Revolver increasing the amount that the Company may borrow thereunder from $50,000 to $100,000.

(6) Subsequent Event

On July 27, 2011, CDSI entered into the Merger Agreement with Merger Sub, SG Blocks and the Signing Stockholders. Upon the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, Merger Sub will be merged with and into SG Blocks, with SG Blocks surviving the merger and becoming a wholly-owned subsidiary of CDSI (the “Merger”).

Upon consummation of the Merger, the holders of common stock of SG Blocks will receive an aggregate of 36,050,741 shares of CDSI common stock. Additionally, Ladenburg Thalmann & Co. Inc. (“Ladenburg”) will receive in the Merger 408,750 shares of CDSI common stock pursuant to contractual obligations between SG Blocks and Ladenburg.

Upon consummation of the Merger, all outstanding SG Blocks warrants shall be cancelled and substituted with warrants of similar tenor to purchase an aggregate of 1,145,509 shares of CDSI common stock.

As a result of the foregoing transactions, the current holders of common stock of CDSI will own an aggregate of 8% of the common stock of CDSI on a fully diluted basis, the stockholders and warrant holders of SG Blocks will beneficially own an aggregate of 91% of the common stock of CDSI on a fully diluted basis and Ladenburg will own an aggregate of 1% of the common stock of CDSI on a fully diluted basis (not including the warrants to purchase shares of CDSI common stock it will receive in the Merger as a result of it currently holding warrants to purchase shares of SG Blocks common stock).

If approved, the Merger is expected to be consummated in September 2011, after the required approval by the stockholders of SG Blocks and the fulfillment of certain other conditions, as described in the Merger Agreement.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT

To the Stockholders of
SG Blocks, Inc.

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of SG Blocks, Inc. (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, and the related statements of operations, stockholders’ equity (deficit) and cash flows for the years then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards established by the Auditing Standards Board (United States) and in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of SG Blocks, Inc., as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

1. Description of Business

SG Blocks, LLC (a Missouri Limited Liability Company formed on January 23, 2007) began operations in 2007. On October 25, 2010, SG Blocks, LLC completed a common control merger with SG Blocks, Inc. (a Delaware corporation incorporated on August 16, 2010), with SG Blocks, Inc. being the surviving Corporation (the “Company”). In connection with the merger, all of the outstanding membership units were retroactively restated to shares of common stock. The Company is a provider of code engineered cargo shipping containers modified for use in “green” construction. The Company also provides engineering and project management services related to the use of modified containers in construction.

2. Liquidity and Financial Condition

Since inception, the Company has generated losses from operations and the Company anticipates it will continue to generate losses from operations for the foreseeable future. As of December 31, 2010 and 2009, the Company’s stockholders’ equity (deficit) was approximately $440,200 and ($1,191,200), respectively. Net cash used in operating activities was $804,405 and $745,906 for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. Operations since inception have been funded with the proceeds from equity and debt financings and sales activity. As of December 31, 2010, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $1,038,661. It is anticipated that existing capital resources will enable the Company to continue operations through at least July 1, 2012.

3. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Accounting estimates — The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Significant areas which require the Company to make estimates include revenue recognition, stock-based compensation, derivatives and allowance for doubtful accounts. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Operating cycle — The length of the Company’s contracts varies, but is typically between one to two years. Assets and liabilities relating to long-term contracts are included in current assets and current liabilities in the accompanying balance sheets as they will be liquidated in the normal course of contract completion, which at times could exceed one year.

Revenue recognition — The Company accounts for its long-term contracts associated with the design, engineering, manufacture and project management of building projects and related services, using the percentage-of-completion accounting method. Under this method, revenue is recognized based on the extent of progress towards completion of the long-term contract.

Contract costs include all direct material and labor costs and those indirect costs related to contract performance. General and administrative costs, marketing and business development expenses and pre-project expenses are charged to expense as incurred. Provisions for estimated losses on uncompleted contracts are made in the period in which such losses are determined. Changes in job performance, job conditions and estimated profitability, including those arising from contract penalty provisions, and final contract settlements may result in revisions to costs and income and are recognized in the period in which the revisions are determined. An amount equal to contract costs attributable to claims is included in revenue when realization is probable and the amount can be reliably estimated.

The asset, “Costs and estimated earnings in excess of billing on uncompleted contracts,” represents revenue recognized in excess of amounts billed. The liability, “Billings in excess of costs and estimated earnings on uncompleted contracts,” represents billing in excess of revenue recognized.

3. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies  – (continued)

The Company offers a one-year warranty on completed contracts. The Company has not incurred any losses to date and nor does it anticipate incurring any losses for warranties that are currently outstanding. Accordingly no warranty reserve is considered necessary for any of the periods presented.

The Company also supplies repurposed containers to its customers. In these cases, the Company serves as a supplier to its customers for standard and made to order products that it sells at fixed prices. Revenue from these contracts is generally recognized when the products have been delivered to the customer, accepted by the customer and collection is reasonably assured. Revenue is recognized upon completion of the following: an order for product is received from a customer; written approval for the payment schedule is received from the customer and the corresponding required deposit or payments are received; a common carrier signs documentation accepting responsibility for the unit as agent for the customer; and the unit is delivered to the customer’s shipping point.

Amounts billed to customers in a sales transaction for shipping and handling are classified as revenue. Products sold are generally paid for based on schedules provided for in each individual customer contract including upfront deposits and progress payments as products are being manufactured.

Funds received in advance of meeting the criteria for revenue recognition are deferred and are recorded as revenue when they are earned.

Marketing expenses — Marketing expenses are expensed as incurred.

Cash and cash equivalents — The Company considers cash and cash equivalents to include all short-term, highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and have original maturities of three months or less.

Accounts receivable  — Accounts receivable are receivables generated from sales to customers and progress billings on performance type contracts. Amounts included in accounts receivable are deemed to be collectible within the Company’s operating cycle. Management provides an allowance for doubtful accounts based on the Company’s historical losses, specific customer circumstances, and general economic conditions. Periodically, management reviews accounts receivable and adjusts the allowance based on current circumstances and charges off uncollectible receivables when all attempts to collect have been exhausted and the prospects for recovery are remote.

The Company has a factoring agreement in place as of December 31, 2010 and 2009 and June 30, 2011. The agreement provides for the Company to receive an advance of 75% of any accounts receivable of which it factors. The factoring agreement also provides for discount fees ranging from 2.5% to 7.5% of the face value of any accounts receivable factored. The factoring agreement is with recourse except in an instance where the customer is insolvent. For years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009 and for the six months ended June 30, 2011, there has been no activity with regard to this agreement.

Inventory — Raw construction materials (primarily shipping containers) are valued at the lower of costs (first-in, first-out method) or market. Finished goods and work-in-process inventories are valued at the lower of costs or market, using the specific identification method.

Equipment — Equipment is stated at cost. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated lives of each asset. Estimated useful lives for significant classes of assets are as follows: computer and software 3 to 5 years and equipment 5 years. Repairs and maintenance are charged to expense when incurred.

Convertible instruments — The Company accounts for hybrid contracts such as convertible notes that feature conversion options in accordance with applicable generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 815 “Derivatives and Hedging Activities,” (“ASC 815”)

3. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies  – (continued)

requires companies to bifurcate conversion options from their host instruments and account for them as free standing derivative financial instruments according to certain criteria. The criteria includes circumstances in which (a) the economic characteristics and risks of the embedded derivative instrument are not clearly and closely related to the economic characteristics and risks of the host contract, (b) the hybrid instrument that embodies both the embedded derivative instrument and the host contract is not re-measured at fair value under otherwise applicable generally accepted accounting principles with changes in fair value reported in earnings as they occur and (c) a separate instrument with the same terms as the embedded derivative instrument would be considered a derivative instrument.

Conversion options that contain variable settlement features such as provisions to adjust the conversion price upon subsequent issuances of equity or equity linked securities at exercise prices more favorable than that featured in the hybrid contract generally result in their bifurcation from the host instrument.

The Company accounts for convertible instruments, when the Company has determined that the embedded conversion options should not be bifurcated from their host instruments, in accordance with ASC 470-20 “Debt with Conversion and Other Options” (“ASC 470-20”). Under ASC 470-20 the Company records, when necessary, discounts to convertible notes for the intrinsic value of conversion options embedded in debt instruments based upon the differences between the fair value of the underlying common stock at the commitment date of the note transaction and the effective conversion price embedded in the note. The Company accounts for convertible instruments (when the Company has determined that the embedded conversion options should be bifurcated from their host instruments) in accordance with ASC 815. Under ASC 815, a portion of the proceeds received upon the issuance of the hybrid contract are allocated to the fair value of the derivative. The derivative is subsequently marked to market at each reporting date based on current fair value, with the changes in fair value reporting in results of operations.

Common stock purchase warrants and other derivative financial instruments — The Company classifies as equity any contracts that (i) require physical settlement or net-share settlement or (ii) provides a choice of net-cash settlement or settlement in the Company’s own shares (physical settlement or net-share settlement) providing that such contracts are indexed to the Company's own stock as defined in ASC 815-40 “Contracts in Entity's Own Equity”. The Company classifies as assets or liabilities any contracts that (i) require net-cash settlement (including a requirement to net cash settle the contract if an event occurs and if that event is outside the Company’s control) or (ii) gives the counterparty a choice of net-cash settlement or settlement in shares (physical settlement or net-share settlement). The Company assesses classification of common stock purchase warrants and other free standing derivatives at each reporting date to determine whether a change in classification between assets and liabilities or equity is required.

The Company’s free standing derivatives consist of warrants to purchase common stock that were issued to a placement agent involved with the private offering memorandum as described in Note 14. The Company reevaluated the common stock purchase warrants to assess their proper classification in the balance sheet as of December 31, 2010 and determined that the common stock purchase warrants feature a characteristic permitting cash settlement at the option of the holder. Accordingly, these instruments have been classified as derivative liabilities in the accompanying balance sheet as of December 31, 2010 and June 30, 2011.

Fair value measurements — Financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities are carried at cost, which the Company believes approximates fair value due to the short-term nature of these instruments.

The Company measures the fair value of financial assets and liabilities based on the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the

measurement date. The Company maximized the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The Company uses three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

Level 1 Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities
Level 2 Quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets or inputs that are observable.
Level 3 Inputs that are observable (for example, cash flow modeling inputs based on assumptions).

3. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies  – (continued)

In accordance with the provisions of ASC 815, the Company presented the conversion option liability and warrant liabilities at fair value on its balance sheet, with the corresponding changes in fair value recorded in the Company’s statement of operations for the applicable reporting periods. As disclosed in Note 8 and 14, the Company computed the fair value of the derivative liability at the date of issuance and the reporting dates of December 31, 2009 and 2010 using both the Black-Scholes option pricing and lattice pricing methods. The value calculated using the lattice pricing method is within 1% of the value determined under the Black-Scholes method.

The Company developed the assumptions that were used as follows: The fair value of the Company’s common stock was obtained from valuation models developed by the Company. The results of the valuation were accessed for reasonableness by comparing such amount to sales of other equity and equity linked securities to unrelated parties for cash and intervening events affected in the price of the Company’s stock. The term represents the remaining contractual term of the derivative; the volatility rate was developed based on analysis of the Company’s historical stock price volatility and the historical volatility rates of several other similarly situated companies (using a number of observations that was at least equal to or exceeded the number of observations in the life of the derivative financial instrument at issue); the risk free interest rates were obtained from publicly available US Treasury yield curve rates; the dividend yield is zero because the Company has not paid dividends and does not expect to pay dividends in the foreseeable future.

Share-based payments — The Company accounts for share based payments in accordance with ASC 718 “Compensation — Stock Compensation” which results in the recognition of expense under applicable GAAP and requires measurement of compensation cost for all share based payment awards at fair value on the date of grant and recognition of compensation expense over the service period for awards expected to vest. The fair value of restricted stock is determined based on the number of shares granted and the fair value of our common stock on date of grant. The recognized expense is net of expected forfeitures.

Income taxes — The Company accounts for income taxes pursuant to ASC 740, “Income Taxes”, and provides for income taxes utilizing the asset and liability approach. Under this approach, deferred taxes represent the future tax consequences expected to occur when the reported amounts of assets and liabilities are recovered or paid. The provision for income taxes generally represents income taxes paid or payable for the current year plus the change in deferred taxes during the year. Deferred taxes result from the differences between the financial and tax bases of the Company’s assets and liabilities and are adjusted for changes in tax rates and tax laws when changes are enacted.

The calculation of tax liabilities involves dealing with uncertainties in the application of complex tax regulations. The Company recognizes liabilities for anticipated tax audit issues based on the Company’s estimate of whether, and the extent to which, additional taxes will be due. If payment of these amounts ultimately proves to be unnecessary, the reversal of the liabilities would result in tax benefits being recognized in the period when the liabilities are no longer determined to be necessary. If the estimate of tax liabilities proves to be less than the ultimate assessment, a further charge to expense would result.

As a result of the merger, described in Note 1, beginning on October 25, 2010, the Company’s results of operations are taxed as a C Corporation. Prior to the merger, the Company’s operations were organized as a limited liability company, whereby the Company elected to be taxed as a partnership and the income or loss was required to be reported by each respective member on their separate income tax returns. Therefore, no provision for income taxes has been provided in the accompanying financial statements for periods prior to October 25, 2010.

This change in tax status to a taxable entity resulted in the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities based on the expected tax consequences of temporary differences between the book and tax basis of the Company’s assets and liabilities as of December 31, 2010.

3. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies  – (continued)

The Company recognizes deferred tax liabilities and assets for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements or tax returns. Deferred tax liabilities and assets are determined based on the difference between the financial statement basis and tax basis of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. The Company estimates the degree to which tax assets and credit carryforwards will result in a benefit based on expected profitability by tax jurisdiction. A valuation allowance for such tax assets and loss carryforwards is provided when it is determined to be more likely than not that the benefit of such deferred tax asset will not be realized in future periods. If it becomes more likely than not that a tax asset will be used, the related valuation allowance on such assets would be reduced.

Concentrations of credit risk — Financial instruments, which potentially subject the Company to concentration of credit risk, consist principally of cash and cash equivalents. The Company places its cash with high credit quality institutions. At times, such amounts may be in excess of the FDIC insurance limits. The Company has not experienced any losses in such account and believes that it is not exposed to any significant credit risk on the account.

With respect to receivables, concentrations of credit risk are limited to a few customers in the construction industry. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers’ financial condition and, generally, requires no collateral from its customers other than normal lien rights. At December 31, 2010 and 2009, 54% and 67%, respectively, of the Company’s accounts receivable were due from one customer. That customer’s balance has subsequently been received in full. At June 30, 2011, 52% of the Company’s accounts receivables were due from one customer.

Revenues relating to three, two and one customers, respectively, represented approximately 96%, 68% and 78% of the Company’s total revenues for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, and for the six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively.

Costs of revenue relating to one vendor represented approximately 60%, 77% and 84% of the Company’s total cost of revenue for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009 and for the six months ended June 30, 2011. The Company believes it would be able to use other vendors at reasonable comparable terms if needed.

4. Accounts Receivable

At December 31, 2010 and 2009 and June 30, 2011, the Company’s accounts receivable consisted of the following:

     
  2010   2009   2011
SG block sales   $ 120,318     $ 193,248     $ 106,313  
Engineering services     33,317       17,512       33,317

    (1,800 )      (84,078 )       
     $ (1,800 )    $ (70,042 )    $  

Although management believes it has established adequate procedures for estimating costs to complete on open contracts, it is at least reasonably possible that additional significant costs could occur on contracts prior to completion. The Company periodically evaluates and revises its estimates and makes adjustments when they are considered necessary.

6. Inventory

     $ 4,412     $ 3,790     $ 8,084  

Depreciation expense for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009 and for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 amounted to $1,412, $923, $1,048 and $574, respectively.

Total convertible promissory notes   $     $ 569,011     $  

(A) On November 25, 2009, the Company issued a convertible promissory note to Plaza Construction Corporation (“Plaza”) in exchange for $500,000. The note and all accrued and unpaid interest was due on November 25, 2010, bore interest at an annual rate of 5% per annum, compounded monthly and was guaranteed by a stockholder of the Company. Plaza had the right to convert any unpaid principal and interest on this note, at any time, into a fixed percentage of the then outstanding shares of common stock. The conversion price was subject to an adjustment in the event that the Company subsequently issues equity securities or equity linked securities at a price more favorable than the exercise price of the conversion option embedded in the note. The Company bifurcated the derivative from its debt host in accordance with ASC 815. The issuance date fair value of the derivative amounted to $99,261. Consequently, the Company recorded a discount of $99,261 on the note, which was amortized over the term of the note, using the effective interest method. During the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, $90,989 and $8,272, respectively, of the discount has been charged to interest expense. Amortization of the discount for the six months ended June 30, 2010 amounted to $49,632.

The significant assumptions which the Company used to measure the fair value at November 29, 2009 (issuance date) and December 31, 2009 of conversion option liability was as follows:

 
Stock price   $4.73
Term    1 year
Volatility    50%
Risk-free interest rate    2.01%
Current equity value   $4,000,000
Dividend yield    0.00
Return    0.47%
Up Ratio    1.144
Down Ratio    0.857
Up Transition Probability    0.5001

8. Convertible Promissory Notes  – (continued)

The difference in fair value at the issuance date of November 25, 2009 and December 31, 2009 was insignificant. The Company estimated the fair value of this derivative using the lattice valuation model. The fair value of this conversion liability at the settlement date (October 29, 2010) was $89,986 and at December 31, 2009 was $99,261. The fair value of this conversion liability at the settlement date was calculated based on the potential converted value over principal and interest that Plaza received upon settlement of the note. The conversion option liability was reclassified into equity upon settlement of the convertible note.

On October 29, 2010, Plaza received $523,014 for both principal and interest as part of the proceeds from the private offering. As a result of the Company retiring the note prior to maturity, Plaza also received 2% of all outstanding shares of the Company. At such time there were 966,000 shares of common stock outstanding, and therefore, Plaza received 19,320 shares of common stock with a fair value of $96,600. In addition, the Company owes Plaza a cash obligation fee of $50,000 which is included in interest expense for the year ended December 31, 2010 and consequently is included in accounts payable and accrued expenses as of December 31, 2010 and June 30, 2011.

(B) As part of a maximum loan facility of $310,000, during May and June of 2009, the Company issued three convertible notes; two notes were issued to The Stahmer Family Trust (“Stahmer Trust”) in the amounts of $60,000 and $50,000, and one note was issued to William LeBahn (“LeBahn”) in the amount of $50,000. The notes had original maturity dates ranging from May 28 to June 19, 2010, bore interest at an annual rate of 24% per annum, and were convertible into a fixed percentage of the then outstanding shares of common stock of the Company. The fair value of this conversion option liability was de minims. In the event of a default, as outlined in the underlying agreements, the entire unpaid balances of the notes were convertible into common stock of the Company. The entire principal amounts outstanding on all three notes, were repaid during 2010.

As a result of settlement agreements with Stahmer Trust and LeBahn, during 2010, unpaid interest totaling $13,749 was forgiven, and is included as other income on the accompanying statements of operations for the year ended December 31, 2010. Also, unpaid interest totaling $41,247 on the notes, were included into new notes payable agreements, as disclosed in Note 9.

(C) In August 2010, the Company issued three convertible promissory notes to certain partners and associates of Olshan Grundman Frome Rosenzqeig & Wolosky, LLP (“OGFRW, LLP”) in the aggregate principal amount of $65,000 and also issued one convertible promissory note to Christopher Melton in the principal amount of $30,000. The OGFRW, LLP notes had an original maturity date of February 5, 2011 and the note to Christopher Melton had an original maturity date of August 3, 2011. All of these notes bore interest at an annual rate of 1% per annum, and were convertible into a fixed percentage of the then outstanding shares of common stock of the Company. The fair value of these conversion option liabilities were determined to be $72,795 utilizing the Black-Scholes method. For the year ended December 31, 2010, $72,795 for the amount of the discount on the notes is included as a component of interest expense in the accompanying statements of operations. In 2010 in conjunction with the private offering memorandum, these notes were converted into 33,559 shares of the Company’s common stock based upon the contractual terms of the conversion option. The conversion option liability was reclassified into equity upon settlement of the convertible notes.

9. Short-Term Notes Payable  – (continued)

(E) On August 18, 2008, the Company entered into an agreement with Labadie and Martha Labadie (“Martha”), in which the Company received $150,000 for the purpose of constructing a 1,600 square foot shipping container home (“Harbinger House”) as a demonstration unit to be used for display at conventions. Per the terms of the agreement, the Company had the option, if exercised by February 28, 2009, to repay the $150,000 of principal and 12.5% interest, or to sell the property to a third party and repay the $150,000 of principal and 30% of any net profits received from the sale. If neither event occurred, the Company had the obligation to repurchase the property at $150,000 plus $25,000 to settle the note. The Company repaid the $150,000 plus $25,000 during 2010.

The Harbinger House was damaged during transport during 2008 and was written down to an impaired value of $35,000 as of December 31, 2009 and included as part of inventory. The Harbinger House was scrapped in 2011, and therefore the book value has been written off as of December 31, 2010.

(F) During March 2009, the Company received an advance from James Southard in the amount of $10,000. The note is non-interest bearing and is due on demand.

11. Income Taxes

Prior to the merger on October 25, 2010, the Company’s results of operations were taxed as a limited liability company, whereby the Company elected to be taxed as a partnership and the income or loss was required to be reported by each respective member on their separate income tax returns. Therefore, no provision for income taxes has been provided in the accompanying consolidated financial statements for periods prior to October 25, 2010. As a result of the Acquisition, beginning on October 25, 2010, the

11. Income Taxes  – (continued)

Company’s results of operations are taxed as a C Corporation. The Company’s benefit for income taxes consists of the following for the year ended December 31, 2010:

 
Current:
        
Federal   $ (125,487 ) 
State     (32,094 ) 
Total current provision     (157,581 ) 
Deferred:
        
Federal     (34,993 ) 
State     (8,950 ) 
Total deferred     (43,943 ) 
Total benefit for income taxes     (201,524 ) 
Less: valuation reserve     201,524  
Income Tax provision   $  

The change in tax status to a taxable entity resulted in a net deferred tax benefit of $0 being recognized and included in the tax benefit for the year ended December 31, 2010. The tax benefit for the year ended December 31, 2010 also includes a tax benefit of $0 which was determined using an effective tax rate of 0.00% for the period from October 26, 2010 (the date on which the tax status changed to a C Corporation) to December 31, 2010.

A reconciliation of the federal statutory rate of 0% for 2010 to the effective rate for income from operations before income taxes is as follows:

 
Benefit for income taxes at federal statutory rate     34.00 % 
State income taxes, net of federal benefit     5.28  
Effect of change in tax status to C corporation     (22.94 ) 
Other     0.16  
Less valuation allowance     (16.50 ) 
Effective income tax rate     0.00 % 

The temporary differences between recognition of expenses on the financial statements and tax return relate primarily to differences in depreciation methods and change in allowance for doubtful accounts.

The tax effects of these temporary differences along with the net operating losses, net of an allowance for credits, have been recognized as deferred tax assets at December 31, 2010 as follows:

 
Net operating loss carryforward   $ 157,581  
Bad debt reserve     11,141  
Employee stock compensation     32,802  
Less valuation reserve     (201,524 ) 
Net deferred tax asset   $  

The Company establishes a valuation allowance if based on the weight of available evidence, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred assets will be realized. The valuation allowance increased $201,524 during 2010, offsetting the increase in the deferred tax asset attributable to the net operating loss and reserves.

As of December 31, 2010, the Company has a net operating loss carry forward of approximately $402,000 for Federal tax purposes. The net operating loss expires through 2030.

14. Warrants

In conjunction with the PPM in October 2010, the Company issued warrants to Ladenburg Thalmann & Co. Inc. (“Ladenburg”), the placement agent for the PPM.

The warrants are exercisable, at the option of the holder, at any time prior to their expiration. The fair value of warrants issued to placement agents were calculated utilizing the probability weighted binomial method. The warrants issued to the placement agent contain provisions that make them redeemable for cash by the holder of the warrant under certain circumstances that are not within the control of the Company. Accordingly, the fair market value of the warrants as of the date of issuance has been classified as liabilities. The value of the warrants at December 31, 2010 was approximately $112,349.

Return    2.01%
Delta    1/12
Up ratio    1.145
Down ratio    0.858
Up transition probability    0.5001

At June 30, 2011 the value of the warrants were adjusted to their fair value which was approximately $110,420. The difference in fair value of $1,929 is included in the accompanying statement of operations.

Promptly after the Effective Time, and in no event more than three (3) business days thereafter, CDSI shall cause the Exchange Agent to mail to each holder of record (as of the Effective Time) of SG Blocks Certificates: (i) a letter of transmittal in customary form (which shall specify that delivery shall be effected, and risk of loss and title to the SG Blocks Certificates shall pass, only upon delivery of the SG Blocks Certificates to the Exchange Agent and shall contain such other customary provisions as CDSI may reasonably specify), and (ii) instructions for use in effecting the surrender of the SG Blocks Certificates in exchange for the shares of CDSI Common Stock to which the holder of such SG Blocks Certificates is entitled as a result of the Merger (and any dividends or other distributions pursuant to Section 1.5(b)).

(d)  Transfers of Ownership.  If certificates representing the shares of CDSI Common Stock are to be issued in a name other than that in which the SG Blocks Certificates surrendered in exchange therefor are registered, it will be a condition of the issuance thereof that the SG Blocks Certificates so surrendered will be properly endorsed and otherwise in proper form for transfer and that the persons requesting such exchange will have paid to CDSI or any agent designated by it any transfer or other taxes required by reason of the issuance of certificates representing the shares of CDSI Common Stock in any name other than that of the registered holder of the SG Blocks Certificates surrendered, or established to the satisfaction of CDSI or any agent designated by it that such tax has been paid or is not payable.

(e)  Termination of Exchange Agent Obligations.  Shares of CDSI Common Stock held by the Exchange Agent that have not been delivered to holders of SG Blocks Certificates within six months after the Effective Time shall promptly be delivered to CDSI, and thereafter holders of SG Blocks Certificates who have not theretofore complied with the exchange procedures outlined in and contemplated by this Section 1.6 shall thereafter look only to CDSI (subject to abandoned property, escheat and similar laws) for their claim for shares of CDSI Common Stock and any dividends or distributions pursuant to Section 1.5(b) with respect to shares of CDSI Common Stock to which they are entitled.

Any Escrow Shares due to be released on the Escrow Release Date that continue to be held with respect to any unresolved Escrow Claim shall be delivered to the stockholders of SG Blocks in the same proportions as originally deposited into escrow, promptly upon such resolution, subject to reduction, if any, for the indemnification obligation associated with such resolved Escrow Claim.

(a)  CDSI Committee.  Prior to the Closing, the Board of Directors of CDSI shall appoint a committee consisting of one or more of its then members to act on behalf of CDSI to take all necessary actions and make all decisions pursuant to the Escrow Agreement.

Such committee is intended to be the “Committee” referred to in Article VII hereof and the Escrow Agreement.

(b)  Representative.  SG Blocks and the Signing Stockholders hereby designate Paul Galvin to represent the interests of the Persons entitled to receive CDSI Common Stock as a result of the Merger for purposes of the Escrow Agreement. If such Person ceases to serve in such capacity, for any reason, such Person shall designate his or her successor. Failing such designation within ten (10) business days after the Representative has ceased to serve, those members of the Board of Directors of CDSI who were directors of SG Blocks prior to the Closing shall appoint as successor a Person who was a former stockholder of SG Blocks or such other Person as such members shall designate. Such Persons or their successors are intended to be the “Representative” referred to in Article VII hereof and the Escrow Agreement.

No information or knowledge obtained by CDSI in any investigation pursuant to this Section 5.8 will affect or be deemed to modify any representation or warranty contained herein or the conditions to the obligations of the parties to consummate the Merger.

Solely for the purpose of determining the amount of any Losses (and not for determining any breach) for which the CDSI Indemnitees may be entitled to indemnification pursuant to Article VII, any representation or warranty contained in this

A-29


 
 

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Agreement that is qualified by a term or terms such as “material,” “materially,” or “Material Adverse Effect” shall be deemed made or given without such qualification and without giving effect to such words.

7.2  Indemnification of Third Party Claims.  The indemnification obligations and liabilities under this Article VII with respect to actions, proceedings, lawsuits, investigations, demands or other claims brought against a CDSI Indemnitee by a Person other than SG Blocks or a Signing Stockholder (a “Third Party Claim”) shall be subject to the following terms and conditions:

(a)  Notice of Claim.  CDSI, acting through the Committee, will give the Representative prompt written notice after receiving written notice of any Third Party Claim or discovering the liability, obligation or facts giving rise to such Third Party Claim (a “Notice of Claim”) which Notice of Third Party Claim shall set forth (i) a brief description of the nature of the Third Party Claim, (ii) the total amount of the actual out-of-pocket Loss or the anticipated potential Loss (including any costs or expenses which have been or may be reasonably incurred in connection therewith), and (iii) whether such Loss may be covered (in whole or in part) under any insurance and the estimated amount of such Loss which may be covered under such insurance, and the Representative shall be entitled to participate in the defense of Third Party Claim at its expense.

(b)  Defense.  The Representative shall have the right, at its option (subject to the limitations set forth in subsection 7.2(c) below) and at the Company’s expense, by written notice to CDSI, to assume the entire control of, subject to the right of CDSI to participate (at its expense and with counsel of its choice) in, the defense, compromise or settlement of the Third Party Claim as to which such Notice of Claim has been given, and shall be entitled to appoint a recognized and reputable counsel reasonably acceptable to CDSI to be the lead counsel in connection with such defense. If the Representative is permitted and elects to assume the defense of a Third Party Claim:

(i)  the Representative shall diligently and in good faith defend such Third Party Claim and shall keep the Committee reasonably informed of the status of such defense; provided, however, that the Committee shall have the right to approve any settlement, which approval will not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned except to the extent the settlement relates solely to monetary damages that are indemnified fully under Section 7.1; and

(ii)  CDSI and the Committee shall cooperate fully in all respects with the Representative in any such defense, compromise or settlement thereof, including, without limitation, the selection of counsel, and CDSI and the Committee shall make available to the Representative all pertinent information and documents under its control.

(c)  Limitations of Right to Assume Defense.  The Representative shall not be entitled to assume control of such defense and, subject to the limitations of Section 7.4, shall pay the reasonable fees and expenses of one counsel retained by CDSI or the Committee if (i) the Third Party Claim relates to or arises in connection with any criminal proceeding, action, indictment, allegation or investigation; (ii) the Third Party Claim seeks an injunction or equitable relief against a CDSI Indemnitee; or (iii) there is a reasonable probability that a Third Party Claim may materially and adversely affect CDSI or its subsidiaries other than as a result of money damages or other money payments.

(d)  Other Limitations.  Failure to give prompt Notice of Claim or to provide copies of relevant available documents or to furnish relevant available data shall not constitute a defense (in whole or in part) to any Third Party Claim by a CDSI Indemnitee against the Representative and shall not affect the Representative’s duty or obligations under this Article VII, except to the extent (and only to the extent that) such failure shall have adversely affected the ability of the Representative to defend against or reduce its liability or caused or increased such liability or otherwise caused the damages for which the Representative is obligated to be greater than such damages would have been had the Committee given the Representative prompt notice hereunder. So long as the Representative is defending any such action actively and in good faith, CDSI shall not settle such action. CDSI shall make available to the Representative all relevant records and other relevant materials required by them and in the possession or

A-30


 
 

TABLE OF CONTENTS

under the control of CDSI, for the use of the Representative and its representatives in defending any such action, and shall in other respects give reasonable cooperation in such defense.

(e)  Failure to Defend.  If the Representative, promptly after receiving a Notice of Claim, fails to defend such Third Party Claim actively and in good faith, CDSI or the Committee, subject to the limitations of Section 7.4, will (upon further written notice) have the right to undertake the defense, compromise or settlement of such Third Party Claim as it may determine in its reasonable discretion, provided that the Representative shall have the right to approve any settlement, which approval will not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned.

(f)  CDSI Indemnitee Rights.  Anything in this Section 7.2 to the contrary notwithstanding, the Representative shall not, without the written consent of the Committee, settle or compromise any action or consent to the entry of any judgment which does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or the plaintiff to each of the CDSI Indemnitees of a full and unconditional release from all liability and obligation in respect of such action without any payment by any CDSI Indemnitee.

(g)  Representative Consent.  Unless the Representative has consented to a settlement of a Third Party Claim, the amount of the settlement shall not be a binding determination of the amount of the Loss and such amount shall be determined in accordance with the provisions of the Escrow Agreement.

7.3  Insurance and Tax Effect.

(a)  To the extent that any Losses that are subject to indemnification pursuant to this Article VII are covered by insurance, CDSI shall use reasonable best efforts to obtain the maximum recovery under such insurance; provided that CDSI Indemnitees shall nevertheless be entitled to bring a claim for indemnification under this Article VII in respect of such Losses and the time limitations set forth in Section 7.4 hereof for bringing a claim of indemnification under this Agreement shall be tolled during the pendency of such insurance claim. The existence of a claim by CDSI for monies from an insurer or against a third party in respect of any Loss shall not, however, delay any payment pursuant to the indemnification provisions contained herein and otherwise determined to be due and owing by the Representative. If CDSI has received the payment required by this Agreement from the Representative in respect of any Loss and later receives proceeds from insurance or other amounts in respect of such Loss, then it shall hold such proceeds or other amounts in trust for the benefit of the Representative and shall pay to the Representative, as promptly as practicable after receipt, a sum equal to the amount of such proceeds or other amount received, up to the aggregate amount of any payments received from the Representative pursuant to this Agreement in respect of such Loss. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, it is the intention of the parties that no insurer or any other third party shall be (i) entitled to a benefit it would not be entitled to receive in the absence of the foregoing indemnification provisions, or (ii) relieved of the responsibility to pay any claims for which it is obligated.

(b)  To the extent that any Losses that are subject to indemnification pursuant to this Article VII are deductible for income tax purposes by CDSI, SG Blocks or the Merger Sub, as the case may be, the amount of any Loss shall be reduced by the income tax savings to such party as a result of the payment of such Loss.

7.4  Limitations on Indemnification.

(a)  Survival; Time Limitation.  The representations, warranties, covenants and agreements in this Agreement or in any writing delivered by SG Blocks or the Signing Stockholders to CDSI in connection with this Agreement (including the certificate required to be delivered by SG Blocks pursuant to Section 6.3(a)) shall survive the Closing until the Escrow Release Date (the “Survival Period”).

(b)  Any indemnification claim made by CDSI or Merger Sub in writing prior to the termination of the Survival Period shall be preserved despite the subsequent termination of the Survival Period and any claim set forth in a Notice of Claim sent prior to the expiration of such Survival Period shall survive until final resolution thereof. Except as set forth in the immediately preceding sentence, (i) no claim for

A-31


 
 

TABLE OF CONTENTS

indemnification under this Article VII shall be brought after the end of the Survival Period, and (ii) the indemnification rights of CDSI Indemnitees under this Article VII shall terminate and be of no further force or effect.

(c)  Deductible.  No amount shall be payable under Article VII unless and until the aggregate amount of all indemnifiable Losses otherwise payable exceeds $500,000 (the “Deductible”), in which event the amount payable shall be only the amount in excess of the Deductible.

(d)  Aggregate Amount Limitation.  The aggregate liability for Losses pursuant to Section 7.1 shall not in any event exceed the Escrow Shares and no CDSI Indemnitee shall have any claim against SG Blocks’ stockholders other than the Escrow Shares during the Escrow Period.

(e)  No Special or Consequential Damages.  In no event shall Losses be deemed to include any special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages.

7.5  Exclusive Remedy.  CDSI on behalf of itself and the other CDSI Indemnitees, hereby acknowledges and agrees that, from and after the Closing, the sole remedy of the CDSI Indemnitees with respect to any and all claims for money damages arising out of or relating to this Agreement shall be pursuant and subject to the requirements of the indemnification provisions set forth in this Article VII. Notwithstanding any of the foregoing, nothing contained in this Article VII shall in any way impair, modify or otherwise limit a CDSI Indemnitees’ right to bring any claim, demand or suit against the other party based upon such other party’s actual fraud.

7.6  Adjustment to Purchase Price.  Amounts paid for indemnification under Article VII shall be deemed to be an adjustment to the “purchase price” paid to the stockholders of SG Blocks in connection with business combination between SG Blocks and CDSI, except as otherwise required by Law.

7.7  Representative Capacities; Application of Escrow Shares.  The parties acknowledge that the Representative’s obligations under this Article VII are solely as a representative of the stockholders of SG Blocks in the manner set forth in the Escrow Agreement with respect to the obligations to indemnify the CDSI Indemnitees under this Article VII and that the Representative shall have no personal responsibility for any expenses incurred by him in such capacity and that all payments to the CDSI Indemnitees as a result of such indemnification obligations shall be made solely from, and to the extent of, the Escrow Shares. Out-of-pocket expenses of the Representative for attorneys’ fees and other costs shall be borne in the first instance by CDSI, which may make a claim for reimbursement thereof against the Escrow Shares upon the claim with respect to which such expenses are incurred becoming an Established Claim (as defined in the Escrow Agreement). The parties further acknowledge that all actions to be taken by the CDSI Indemnitees pursuant to this Article VII shall be taken on their behalf by the Committee in accordance with the provisions of the Escrow Agreement. The Escrow Agent, pursuant to the Escrow Agreement after the Closing, may apply all or a portion of the Escrow Shares to satisfy any claim for indemnification pursuant to this Article VII. The Escrow Agent will hold the remaining portion of the Escrow Shares until final resolution of all claims for indemnification or disputes relating thereto. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, all Escrow Shares remaining in escrow following the Final Escrow Release Date in excess of the Escrow Shares necessary to satisfy any timely filed claim for indemnification shall be released and delivered to the Persons entitled to them on such date. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Representative shall have no liability to SG Blocks or any Stockholder or any party hereto for any action taken or omitted to be taken hereunder, unless such liability is determined by a judgment or a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from the gross negligence, or willful misconduct of the Representative. CDSI shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless the Representative for all losses, damages, costs and expenses (including reasonable attorney’s fees and costs of investigation) arising out of or in connection with, the performance by the Representative of its duties and obligations under this Agreement, unless such liability is determined by a judgment or a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from the gross negligence, or willful misconduct of the Representative.

CDSI HOLDINGS INC.
  
2011 INCENTIVE STOCK PLAN

1. Purpose of the Plan.

This 2011 Incentive Stock Plan (the “Plan”) is intended as an incentive, to retain in the employ of and as directors, officers, consultants, advisors and employees to CDSI Holdings Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”) and any Subsidiary of the Company, within the meaning of Section 424(f) of the United States Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), persons of training, experience and ability, to attract new directors, officers, consultants, advisors and employees whose services are considered valuable, to encourage the sense of proprietorship and to stimulate the active interest of such persons in the development and financial success of the Company and its Subsidiaries.

Certain options granted pursuant to the Plan may constitute incentive stock options within the meaning of Section 422 of the Code (the “Incentive Options”) while certain other options granted pursuant to the Plan may be nonqualified stock options (the “Nonqualified Options”). Incentive Options and Nonqualified Options are hereinafter referred to collectively as “Options.”

The Company intends that the Plan meet the requirements of Rule 16b-3 (“Rule 16b-3”) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) and that transactions of the type specified in subparagraphs (c) to (f) inclusive of Rule 16b-3 by officers and directors of the Company pursuant to the Plan will be exempt from the operation of Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act. Further, the Plan may satisfy the performance-based compensation exception to the limitation on the Company’s tax deductions imposed by Section 162(m) of the Code with respect to those Options for which qualification for such exception is intended. In all cases, the terms, provisions, conditions and limitations of the Plan shall be construed and interpreted consistent with the Company’s intent as stated in this Section 1.

2. Administration of the Plan.

The Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”) shall act as the administrator of the Plan. The Board, subject to Sections 3, 4 and 5 hereof, shall have full power and authority to designate recipients of Options, stock appreciation rights (“Stock Appreciation Rights”), restricted stock (“Restricted Stock”) and other equity incentives or stock or stock based awards (“Equity Incentives”) and to determine the terms and conditions of respective Option, Stock Appreciation Rights, Restricted Stock and Equity Incentives agreements (which need not be identical) and to interpret the provisions and supervise the administration of the Plan. The Board shall have the authority, without limitation, to designate which Options granted under the Plan shall be Incentive Options and which shall be Nonqualified Options. To the extent any Option does not qualify as an Incentive Option, it shall constitute a separate Nonqualified Option.

Subject to the provisions of the Plan, the Board shall interpret the Plan and all Options, Stock Appreciation Rights, Restricted Stock and Equity Incentives granted under the Plan, shall make such rules as it deems necessary for the proper administration of the Plan, shall make all other determinations necessary or advisable for the administration of the Plan and shall correct any defects or supply any omission or reconcile any inconsistency in the Plan or in any Options, Stock Appreciation Rights, Restricted Stock or Equity Incentives granted under the Plan in the manner and to the extent that the Board deems desirable to carry into effect the Plan or any Options, Stock Appreciation Rights, Restricted Stock or Equity Incentives. The act or determination of a majority of the Board shall be the act or determination of the Board and any decision reduced to writing and signed by all of the members of the Board shall be fully effective as if it had been made by a majority at a meeting duly held. Subject to the provisions of the Plan, any action taken or determination made by the Board pursuant to this and the other Sections of the Plan shall be conclusive on all parties.

3. Designation of Optionees and Grantees.

The persons eligible for participation in the Plan as recipients of Options (the “Optionees”), Stock Appreciation Rights, Restricted Stock or Equity Incentives (respectively, the “Grantees”) shall include directors, officers and employees of, and consultants and advisors to, the Company or any Subsidiary; provided that Incentive Options may only be granted to employees of the Company and the Subsidiaries. In selecting Optionees and Grantees, and in determining the number of shares to be covered by each Option, Stock Appreciation Right, Restricted Stock or Equity Incentive granted to Optionees or Grantees, the Board may consider any factors it deems relevant, including without limitation, the office or position held by the Optionee or Grantee or the Optionee or Grantee’s relationship to the Company, the Optionee or Grantee’s degree of responsibility for and contribution to the growth and success of the Company or any Subsidiary, the Optionee or Grantee’s length of service, promotions and potential. An Optionee or Grantee who has been granted an Option, Stock Appreciation Right, Restricted Stock or Equity Incentive hereunder may be granted an additional Option or Options, Stock Appreciation Right(s), Restricted Stock or Equity Incentive(s) if the Board shall so determine.

4. Stock Reserved for the Plan.

Subject to adjustment as provided in Section 10 hereof, a total of 8,000,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock, $0.01 par value per share (the “Stock”), shall be subject to the Plan. The maximum number of shares of Stock that may be subject to Options and Stock Appreciation Rights granted under the Plan to any individual in any calendar year shall not exceed 2,000,000 and the method of counting such shares shall conform to any requirements applicable to performance-based compensation under Section 162(m) of the Code, if qualification as performance-based compensation under Section 162(m) of the Code is intended. The shares of Stock subject to the Plan shall consist of unissued shares, treasury shares or previously issued shares held by any Subsidiary of the Company, and such amount of shares of Stock shall be and is hereby reserved for such purpose. Any of such shares of Stock that may remain unsold and that are not subject to outstanding Options at the termination of the Plan shall cease to be reserved for the purposes of the Plan, but until termination of the Plan the Company shall at all times reserve a sufficient number of shares of Stock to meet the requirements of the Plan. Should any Option, Stock Appreciation Right, Restricted Stock, or Equity Incentives expire or be canceled prior to its exercise or vesting in full or should the number of shares of Stock to be delivered upon the exercise or vesting in full of an Option, Stock Appreciation Right, Restricted Stock, or Equity Incentives be reduced for any reason, the shares of Stock theretofore subject to such Option, Stock Appreciation Right, Restricted Stock, or Equity Incentives shall no longer be subject to future awards under the Plan.

5. Terms and Conditions of Options.

Options granted under the Plan shall be subject to the following conditions and shall contain such additional terms and conditions, not inconsistent with the terms of the Plan, as the Board shall deem desirable:

(a)  Option Price.  The purchase price of each share of Stock purchasable under an Option shall be determined by the Board at the time of grant, but shall not be less than 100% of the Fair Market Value (as defined below) of such share of Stock on the date the Option is granted; provided, however, that with respect to an Optionee who, at the time an Incentive Option is granted, owns (within the meaning of Section 424(d) of the Code) more than 10% of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock of the Company or of any Subsidiary, the purchase price per share of Stock under an Incentive Option shall be at least 110% of the Fair Market Value per share of Stock on the date of grant. The exercise price for each Option shall be subject to adjustment as provided in Section 10 below. “Fair Market Value” means the closing price of publicly traded shares of Stock on the business day immediately prior to the grant on the principal securities exchange on which shares of Stock are listed (if the shares of Stock are so listed), or on the NASDAQ Stock Market (if the shares of Stock are regularly quoted on the NASDAQ Stock Market), or, if not so listed or regularly quoted, the mean between the closing bid and asked prices of publicly traded shares of Stock in the over-the-counter market, or, if such bid and asked prices shall not be available, as reported by any nationally recognized quotation service selected by the Company, or as determined by the Board in a manner consistent with the provisions of the Code. Anything in this Section 5(a) to the contrary notwithstanding, in no event shall the purchase price of a share of Stock be less than the minimum price permitted under the rules and policies of any national securities exchange on which the shares of Stock are listed.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

(b)  Option Term.  The term of each Option shall be fixed by the Board, but no Option shall be exercisable more than ten years after the date such Option is granted and in the case of an Incentive Option granted to an Optionee who, at the time such Incentive Option is granted, owns (within the meaning of Section 424(d) of the Code) more than 10% of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock of the Company or of any Subsidiary, no such Incentive Option shall be exercisable more than five years after the date such Incentive Option is granted.

(c)  Exercisability.  Subject to Section 5(e) hereof, Options shall be exercisable at such time or times and subject to such terms and conditions as shall be determined by the Board.

Upon the occurrence of a “Change in Control” (as hereinafter defined), the Board may accelerate the vesting and exercisability of outstanding Options, in whole or in part, as determined by the Board in its sole discretion. In its sole discretion, the Board may also determine that, upon the occurrence of a Change in Control, each outstanding Option shall terminate within a specified number of days after notice to the Optionee thereunder, and each such Optionee shall receive, with respect to each share of Company Stock subject to such Option, an amount equal to the excess of the Fair Market Value of such shares immediately prior to such Change in Control over the exercise price per share of such Option; such amount shall be payable in cash, in one or more kinds of property (including the property, if any, payable in the transaction) or a combination thereof, as the Board shall determine in its sole discretion.

For purposes of the Plan, a Change in Control shall be deemed to have occurred if:

(i)  a tender offer (or series of related offers) shall be made and consummated for the ownership of 50% or more of the outstanding voting securities of the Company, unless as a result of such tender offer more than 50% of the outstanding voting securities of the surviving or resulting corporation shall be owned in the aggregate by the stockholders of the Company (as of the time immediately prior to the commencement of such offer), any employee benefit plan of the Company or its Subsidiaries, and their affiliates;

(ii)  the Company shall be merged or consolidated with another corporation, unless as a result of such merger or consolidation more than 50% of the outstanding voting securities of the surviving or resulting corporation shall be owned in the aggregate by the stockholders of the Company (as of the time immediately prior to such transaction), any employee benefit plan of the Company or its Subsidiaries, and their affiliates;

(iii)  the Company shall sell substantially all of its assets to another corporation that is not wholly owned by the Company, unless as a result of such sale more than 50% of such assets shall be owned in the aggregate by the stockholders of the Company (as of the time immediately prior to such transaction), any employee benefit plan of the Company or its Subsidiaries and their affiliates; or

(iv)  a Person (as defined below) shall acquire 50% or more of the outstanding voting securities of the Company (whether directly, indirectly, beneficially or of record), unless as a result of such acquisition more than 50% of the outstanding voting securities of the surviving or resulting corporation shall be owned in the aggregate by the stockholders of the Company (as of the time immediately prior to the first acquisition of such securities by such Person), any employee benefit plan of the Company or its Subsidiaries, and their affiliates.

For purposes of this Section 5(c), ownership of voting securities shall take into account and shall include ownership as determined by applying the provisions of Rule 13d-3(d)(I)(i) (as in effect on the date hereof) under the Exchange Act. In addition, for such purposes, “Person” shall have the meaning given in Section 3(a)(9) of the Exchange Act, as modified and used in Sections 13(d) and 14(d) thereof; however, a Person shall not include (A) the Company or any of its Subsidiaries; (B) a trustee or other fiduciary holding securities under an employee benefit plan of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries; (C) an underwriter temporarily holding securities pursuant to an offering of such securities; or (D) a corporation owned, directly or indirectly, by the stockholders of the Company in substantially the same proportion as their ownership of stock of the Company.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

(d)  Method of Exercise.  Options to the extent then exercisable may be exercised in whole or in part at any time during the option period, by giving written notice to the Company specifying the number of shares of Stock to be purchased, accompanied by payment in full of the purchase price, in cash, or by check or such other instrument as may be acceptable to the Board. As determined by the Board, in its sole discretion, at or after grant, payment in full or in part may be made at the election of the Optionee (i) in the form of Stock owned by the Optionee (based on the Fair Market Value of the Stock on the trading day before the Option is exercised) which is not the subject of any pledge or security interest, (ii) in the form of shares of Stock withheld by the Company from the shares of Stock otherwise to be received with such withheld shares of Stock having a Fair Market Value on the date of exercise equal to the exercise price of the Option, or (iii) by a combination of the foregoing, provided that the combined value of all cash and cash equivalents and the Fair Market Value of any shares surrendered to the Company is at least equal to such exercise price and except with respect to (ii) above, such method of payment will not cause a disqualifying disposition of all or a portion of the Stock received upon exercise of an Incentive Option. An Optionee shall have the right to dividends and other rights of a stockholder with respect to shares of Stock purchased upon exercise of an Option at such time as the Optionee (i) has given written notice of exercise and has paid in full for such shares and (ii) has satisfied such conditions that may be imposed by the Company with respect to the withholding of taxes.

(e)  Limit on Value of Incentive Option.  The aggregate Fair Market Value, determined as of the date the Incentive Option is granted, of Stock for which Incentive Options are exercisable for the first time by any Optionee during any calendar year under the Plan (and/or any other stock option plans of the Company or any Subsidiary) shall not exceed $100,000.

(f)  Incentive Option Shares.  A grant of an Incentive Option under this Plan shall provide that (i) the Optionee shall be required as a condition of the exercise to furnish to the Company any payroll (employment) tax required to be withheld, and (ii) if the Optionee makes a disposition, within the meaning of Section 424(c) of the Code and regulations promulgated thereunder, of any share or shares of Stock issued to him upon exercise of an Incentive Option granted under the Plan within the two-year period commencing on the day after the date of the grant of such Incentive Option or within a one-year period commencing on the day after the date of transfer of the share or shares to him pursuant to the exercise of such Incentive Option, he shall, within 10 days after such disposition, notify the Company thereof and immediately deliver to the Company any amount of United States federal, state and local income tax withholding required by law.

6. Terms and Conditions of Stock Appreciation Rights.

Stock Appreciation Rights shall granted with an exercise price that is not less than 100% of the Fair Market Value (as defined in Section 5(a) herein) of a share of Common Stock on the date the Stock Appreciation Right is granted and shall be exercisable at such time or times and subject to such other terms and conditions as shall be determined by the Board. Unless otherwise provided, Stock Appreciation Rights shall become immediately exercisable and shall remain exercisable until expiration, cancellation or termination of the award. Such rights may be exercised in whole or in part by giving written notice to the Company. Stock Appreciation Rights to the extent then exercisable may be exercised for payment in cash, shares of Common Stock or a combination of both, as the Board shall deem desirable, equal to: (i) the excess of the Fair Market Value as defined in Section 5(a) herein of a share of Common Stock on the date of exercise over (ii) the exercise price of such Stock Appreciation Right.

7. Terms and Conditions of Restricted Stock.

Restricted Stock may be granted under this Plan aside from, or in association with, any other award and shall be subject to the following conditions and shall contain such additional terms and conditions (including provisions relating to the acceleration of vesting of Restricted Stock upon a Change of Control), not inconsistent with the terms of the Plan, as the Board shall deem desirable:

(a)  Grantee rights.  A Grantee shall have no rights to an award of Restricted Stock unless and until Grantee accepts the award within the period prescribed by the Board and, if the Board shall deem desirable, makes payment to the Company in cash, or by check or such other instrument as may be acceptable to the Board. After acceptance and issuance of a certificate or certificates, as provided for

TABLE OF CONTENTS

below, the Grantee shall have the rights of a stockholder with respect to Restricted Stock subject to the non-transferability and forfeiture restrictions described in section 7(d) below.

(b)  Issuance of certificates.  The Company shall issue in the Grantee’s name a certificate or certificates for the shares of Common Stock associated with the award promptly after the Grantee accepts such award.

(c)  Delivery of certificates.  Unless otherwise provided, any certificate or certificates issued evidencing shares of Restricted Stock shall not be delivered to the Grantee until such shares are free of any restrictions specified by the Board at the time of grant.

(d)  Forfeitability, Non-transferability of Restricted Stock.  Shares of Restricted Stock are forfeitable until the terms of the Restricted Stock grant have been satisfied. Shares of Restricted Stock are not transferable until the date on which the Board has specified such restrictions has lapsed. Unless otherwise provided, distributions of additional shares or property in the form of dividends or otherwise in respect of shares of Restricted Stock shall be subject to the same restrictions as such shares of Restricted Stock.

(e)  Change of Control.  Upon the occurrence of a Change in Control, the Board may accelerate the vesting of outstanding Restricted Stock, in whole or in part, as determined by the Board in its sole discretion.

8. Other Equity Incentives or Stock Based Awards.

The Board may grant Equity Incentives (including the grant of unrestricted shares) to such key persons, in such amounts and subject to such terms and conditions, as the Board shall in its discretion determine, subject to the provisions of the Plan. Such awards may entail the transfer of actual shares of Common Stock to Plan participants, or payment in cash or otherwise of amounts based on the value of shares of Common Stock.

9. Term of Plan.

No Option, Stock Appreciation Rights, Restricted Stock or Equity Incentives shall be granted pursuant to the Plan on the date which is ten years from the effective date of the Plan, but Options, Stock Appreciation Rights or Equity Incentives theretofore granted may extend beyond that date.

10. Capital Change of the Company.

In the event of any merger, reorganization, consolidation, recapitalization, stock dividend, or similar type of corporate restructuring affecting the Stock, the Board shall make an appropriate and equitable adjustment in the number and kind of shares reserved for issuance under the Plan and in the number and option price of shares subject to outstanding Options granted under the Plan, to the end that after such event each Optionee’s proportionate interest shall be maintained as immediately before the occurrence of such event. The Board shall, to the extent feasible, make such other adjustments as may be required under the tax laws so that any Incentive Options previously granted shall not be deemed modified within the meaning of Section 424(h) of the Code. Appropriate adjustments shall also be made in the case of outstanding Stock Appreciation Rights and Restricted Stock granted under the Plan.

11. Purchase for Investment.

Unless the Options and shares covered by the Plan have been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), or the Company has determined that such registration is unnecessary, each person exercising or receiving Options, Stock Appreciation Rights, Restricted Stock or Equity Incentives under the Plan may be required by the Company to give a representation in writing that he is acquiring the securities (if issued) for his own account for investment and not with a view to, or for sale in connection with, the distribution of any part thereof.

12. Taxes.

(a)  The Company may make such provisions as it may deem appropriate, consistent with applicable law, in connection with any Options, Stock Appreciation Rights, Restricted Stock or Equity Incentives granted under the Plan with respect to the withholding of any taxes (including income or employment taxes) or any other tax matters.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

(b)  If any Grantee, in connection with the acquisition of Restricted Stock, makes the election permitted under section 83(b) of the Code (that is, an election to include in gross income in the year of transfer the amounts specified in section 83(b)), such Grantee shall notify the Company of the election with the Internal Revenue Service pursuant to regulations issued under the authority of Code section 83(b).

(c)  If any Grantee shall make any disposition of shares of Stock issued pursuant to the exercise of an Incentive Option under the circumstances described in section 421(b) of the Code (relating to certain disqualifying dispositions), such Grantee shall notify the Company of such disposition within 10 days hereof.

13. Effective Date of Plan.

The Plan shall be effective on July 27, 2011; provided, however, that if, and only if, certain options are intended to qualify as Incentive Stock Options, the Plan must subsequently be approved by majority vote of the Company’s stockholders no later than July 27, 2012, and further, that in the event certain Option grants hereunder are intended to qualify as performance-based compensation within the meaning of Section 162(m) of the Code, the requirements as to shareholder approval set forth in Section 162(m) of the Code are satisfied.

14. Amendment and Termination, Section 409A of the Code.

The Board may amend, suspend, or terminate the Plan, except that no amendment shall be made that would impair the rights of any Optionee or Grantee under any Option, Stock Appreciation Right, Restricted Stock or Equity Incentive theretofore granted without the Optionee or Grantee’s consent, and except that no amendment shall be made which, without the approval of the stockholders of the Company would:

(a)  materially increase the number of shares that may be issued under the Plan, except as is provided in Section 10;

(b)  materially increase the benefits accruing to the Optionees or Grantees under the Plan;

(c)  materially modify the requirements as to eligibility for participation in the Plan;

(d)  decrease the exercise price of an Incentive Option to less than 100% of the Fair Market Value per share of Stock on the date of grant thereof or the exercise price of a Nonqualified Option to less than 100% of the Fair Market Value per share of Stock on the date of grant thereof; or

(e)  extend the term of any Option beyond that provided for in Section 5(b).

The Board may amend the terms of any Option, Stock Appreciation Right, Restricted Stock or Equity Incentive theretofore granted, prospectively or retroactively, but no such amendment shall impair the rights of any Optionee or Grantee without the Optionee or Grantee’s consent. The Board may also substitute new Options, Stock Appreciation Rights or Restricted Stock for previously granted Options, Stock Appreciation Rights or Restricted Stock including options granted under other plans applicable to the participant and previously granted Options having higher option prices, upon such terms as the Board may deem appropriate. However, the Board may not modify or amend any outstanding Option or Stock Appreciation Right to reduce the exercise price of such Option or Stock Appreciation Right, as applicable, below the exercise price as of the date of grant of such Option or Stock Appreciation Right. In addition, no Option or Stock Appreciation Right may be granted in exchange for, or in connection with, the cancellation or surrender of an Option or Stock Appreciation Right or other award having a higher exercise price.

It is the intention of the Board that the Plan comply strictly with the provisions of Section 409A of the Code and Treasury Regulations and other Internal Revenue Service guidance promulgated thereunder (the “Section 409A Rules) and the Board shall exercise its discretion in granting Options, Stock Appreciation Rights or Restricted Stock hereunder (and the terms of such grants), accordingly. The Plan and any grant of an Option, Stock Appreciation right or Restricted Stock hereunder may be amended from time to time (without, in the case of an Award, the consent of the Participant) as may be necessary or appropriate to comply with the Section 409A Rules.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

15. Government Regulations.

The Plan, and the grant and exercise of Options, Stock Appreciation Rights, Restricted Stock and Equity Incentives hereunder, and the obligation of the Company to sell and deliver shares under such Options, Stock Appreciation Rights, Restricted Stock and Equity Incentives shall be subject to all applicable laws, rules and regulations, and to such approvals by any governmental agencies, national securities exchanges and interdealer quotation systems as may be required.

16. General Provisions.

(a)  Certificates.  All certificates for shares of Stock delivered under the Plan shall be subject to such stop transfer orders and other restrictions as the Board may deem advisable under the rules, regulations and other requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission, or other securities commission having jurisdiction, any applicable Federal or state securities law, any stock exchange or interdealer quotation system upon which the Stock is then listed or traded and the Board may cause a legend or legends to be placed on any such certificates to make appropriate reference to such restrictions.

(b)  Employment Matters.  The adoption of the Plan shall not confer upon any Optionee or Grantee of the Company or any Subsidiary any right to continued employment or, in the case of an Optionee or Grantee who is a director, continued service as a director, with the Company or a Subsidiary, as the case may be, nor shall it interfere in any way with the right of the Company or any Subsidiary to terminate the employment of any of its employees, the service of any of its directors or the retention of any of its consultants or advisors at any time.

(c)  Limitation of Liability.  No member of the Board, or any officer or employee of the Company acting on behalf of the Board, shall be personally liable for any action, determination or interpretation taken or made in good faith with respect to the Plan, and all members of the Board or the Board and each and any officer or employee of the Company acting on their behalf shall, to the extent permitted by law, be fully indemnified and protected by the Company in respect of any such action, determination or interpretation.

(d)  Registration of Stock.  Notwithstanding any other provision in the Plan, no Option may be exercised unless and until the Stock to be issued upon the exercise thereof has been registered under the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws, or are, in the opinion of counsel to the Company, exempt from such registration in the United States. The Company shall not be under any obligation to register under applicable federal or state securities laws any Stock to be issued upon the exercise of an Option granted hereunder in order to permit the exercise of an Option and the issuance and sale of the Stock subject to such Option, although the Company may in its sole discretion register such Stock at such time as the Company shall determine. If the Company chooses to comply with such an exemption from registration, the Stock issued under the Plan may, at the direction of the Board, bear an appropriate restrictive legend restricting the transfer or pledge of the Stock represented thereby, and the Board may also give appropriate stop transfer instructions with respect to such Stock to the Company’s transfer agent.

(e)  Non-transferability.  Options and Stock Appreciation Rights granted hereunder are not transferable and may be exercised solely by the Optionee or Grantee during his lifetime or after his death by the person or persons entitled thereto under his will or the laws of descent and distribution. The Board, in its sole discretion, may permit a transfer of a Nonqualified Option to (i) a trust for the benefit of the Optionee or (ii) a member of the Optionee’s immediate family (or a trust for his or her benefit). Any attempt to transfer, assign, pledge or otherwise dispose of, or to subject to execution, attachment or similar process, any Option or Stock Appreciation Right contrary to the provisions hereof shall be void and ineffective and shall give no right to the purported transferee.

(f)  No rights as a Stockholder.  No Optionee or Grantee (or other person having the right to exercise such award) shall have any of the rights of a stockholder of the Company with respect to shares subject to such award until the issuance of a stock certificate to such person for such shares. Except as otherwise provided herein, no adjustment shall be made for dividends, distributions or other rights (whether ordinary or extraordinary, and whether in cash, securities or other property) for which the record date is prior to the date such stock certificate is issued.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

(g)  Termination by Death.  Unless otherwise determined by the Board, if any Optionee or Grantee’s employment with or service to the Company or any Subsidiary terminates by reason of death, the Option or Stock Appreciation Right may thereafter be exercised, to the extent then exercisable (or on such accelerated basis as the Board shall determine at or after grant), by the legal representative of the estate or by the legatee of the Optionee or Grantee under the will of the Optionee or Grantee, for a period of one year after the date of such death or until the expiration of the stated term of such Option or Stock Appreciation Right as provided under the Plan, whichever period is shorter.

(h)  Termination by Reason of Disability.  Unless otherwise determined by the Board, if any Optionee or Grantee’s employment with or service to the Company or any Subsidiary terminates by reason of total and permanent disability, any Option or Stock Appreciation Right held by such Optionee or Grantee may thereafter be exercised, to the extent it was exercisable at the time of termination due to Disability (or on such accelerated basis as the Board shall determine at or after grant), but may not be exercised after 60 days after the date of such termination of employment or service or the expiration of the stated term of such Option or Stock Appreciation Right, whichever period is shorter; provided, however, that, if the Optionee or Grantee dies within such 60-day period, any unexercised Option or Stock Appreciation Right held by such Optionee or Grantee shall thereafter be exercisable to the extent to which it was exercisable at the time of death for a period of one year after the date of such death or for the stated term of such Option or Stock Appreciation Right, whichever period is shorter.

(i)  Termination by Reason of Retirement.  Unless otherwise determined by the Board, if any Optionee or Grantee’s employment with or service to the Company or any Subsidiary terminates by reason of Normal or Early Retirement (as such terms are defined below), any Option or Stock Appreciation Right held by such Optionee or Grantee may thereafter be exercised to the extent it was exercisable at the time of such Retirement (or on such accelerated basis as the Board shall determine at or after grant), but may not be exercised after 60 days after the date of such termination of employment or service or the expiration of the stated term of such Option or Stock Appreciation Right, whichever period is shorter; provided, however, that, if the Optionee or Grantee dies within such 60-day period, any unexercised Option or Stock Appreciation Right held by such Optionee or Grantee shall thereafter be exercisable, to the extent to which it was exercisable at the time of death, for a period of one year after the date of such death or for the stated term of such Option or Stock Appreciation Right, whichever period is shorter. For purposes of this paragraph (i), “Normal Retirement” shall mean retirement from active employment with the Company or any Subsidiary on or after the normal retirement date specified in the applicable Company or Subsidiary pension plan or if no such pension plan, age 65, and “Early Retirement” shall mean retirement from active employment with the Company or any Subsidiary pursuant to the early retirement provisions of the applicable Company or Subsidiary pension plan or if no such pension plan, age 55.

(j)  Other Termination.  Unless otherwise determined by the Board, if any Optionee or Grantee’s employment with or service to the Company or any Subsidiary terminates for any reason other than death, Disability or Normal or Early Retirement, the Option or Stock Appreciation Right shall thereupon terminate, except that the portion of any Option or Stock Appreciation Right that was exercisable on the date of such termination of employment or service may be exercised for the lesser of 30 days after the date of termination or the balance of such Option or Stock Appreciation Right’s term if the Optionee or Grantee’s employment or service with the Company or any Subsidiary is terminated by the Company or such Subsidiary without cause or for good reason by the Optionee or Grantee (the determination as to whether termination was for cause or for good reason to be made by the Board). The transfer of an Optionee or Grantee from the employ of or service to the Company to the employ of or service to a Subsidiary, or vice versa, or from one Subsidiary to another, shall not be deemed to constitute a termination of employment or service for purposes of the Plan.
