INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS

(a) Ratification of Accountants .

     Dale Matheson Carr-Hilton Labonte (“DMCL”) issued the report for the Company’s audited financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2006 in May 2007. The Board of Directors has approved by resolution a proposal to retain DMCL for the present fiscal year and succeeding fiscal years. The Board of Directors of the Company recommends a vote FOR the retention of DMCL and further to empower the Board of Directors, at their sole discretion, to appoint successors to DMCL if the Board of Directors wishes to do so.

     Representatives of DMCL are not expected to be present at the Annual Meeting. However, such representatives will be available by telephone to respond to appropriate questions at the meeting.

     DMCL’s aggregate fees billed for each of the last two fiscal years for professional services rendered by the principal accountant for the audit of the registrant’s annual financial statements and review of financial statements included in registrant’s 10KSB were $26,000 and $21,300 for the fiscal years 2006 and 2005 respectively. DMCL did not bill for, or perform, non-audit related services for the Company in either the 2006 or 2005 fiscal year.

INCENTIVE STOCK OPTION PLAN

Management of the Company is recommending to shareholders that they approval the Company’s proposed incentive stock option plan.

This incentive stock option plan allows for the issuance of up to five million (5,000,000) shares of the Company’s common stock to eligible employees, directors, officers and consultants. The exercise price of options, which can have a term of up to five (5) years, as well as the number of options granted to each option holder, will be at the discretion of the Board of Directors at the time of a stock option’s grant. As a general rule in the proposed plan, the exercise price of any options granted will be at or near the prevailing market price of the Company’s shares of common stock at the time of the stock option grant.

The Company’s proposed stock option plan is available from its offices by contacting the Company and will also be made available at the shareholder’s meeting for shareholders who wish to review its terms.


It is anticipated that, if approved, the proposed plan will be registered under the Securities Act of 1933 by way of S8 registration statement. Any shares issued to option holders under the proposed plan may be subject to resale restrictions including volume sale restrictions under Rule 144.

CHANGE IN FISCAL YEAR END TO NOVEMBER 30

Management of the Company is proposing to change, and recommending a change of, the Company’s fiscal year end from December 31 to November 30.

The purpose of this change is to allow the Company more flexibility in completing its financial statements and audits. The Company has found that, as regulatory governance and oversight of accounting functions has increased over the last two years, it is difficult to complete accounting filings when other public companies are also trying to complete their accounting filings.

CONSOLIDATION OF COMMON SHARES ISSUED AND OUTSTANDING

Management of the Company is proposing and recommending a consolidation of the Company’s common shares issued and outstanding on a 10 old for 1 new share basis. After the consolidation, the Company would have 6,254,842 common shares issued and outstanding. The proposed consolidation is deemed necessary by management in order to attract the venture capital required to maintain the Company as a going concern.

OTHER BUSINESS

     As of the date of this proxy statement, the Company knows of no business that will be presented for consideration at the Annual Meeting other than the items referred to above. If any other matter is properly brought before the meeting for action by the shareholders, proxies in the enclosed forms returned to the Company will be voted in accordance with the recommendation of the Board of Directors or, in the absence of such a recommendation, in accordance with the judgment of the proxy holder.
