Item 1.  Business
 
Overview
 
     Lifeloc is a Wheat Ridge, Colorado based  developer, manufacturer and marketer of portable hand-held breathalyzers and related supplies and education.  We design, produce and sell fuel-cell based breath alcohol testing equipment.  We compete in all major segments of the portable breath alcohol testing instrument market, including law enforcement, workplace, corrections, original equipment manufacturing (“OEM”) and consumer markets. In addition, we offer a line of supplies, accessories, services, and training to support customers’ alcohol testing programs. We sell globally through distributors and sales agents, as well as directly to users.
 
     In 2001, we completed and released for sale the FC Series, designed for the law enforcement and corrections markets.  The FC Series is approved by the U.S. Department of Transportation (“DOT”) as an evidential roadside breath tester, making it suitable for sale to state law enforcement agencies for preliminary roadside breath alcohol testing. The FC Series offers users a precision instrument which is easy to use, reliable and accurate. It is readily adaptable to the specific requirements and regulations of domestic and international markets. The FC Series is currently sold worldwide.
 
     In 2005 and 2006, we introduced two new models for the workplace market: the EV30 and Phoenix 6.0. Like their predecessor, the Phoenix Classic, these instruments are also DOT approved.
 
     We also sell breath alcohol equipment components that we manufacture for other original equipment manufacturers for inclusion as subassemblies or components in their breath alcohol testing devices.
 
     In late 2009, Lifeloc released the LifeGuard Personal Breathalyzer,  a personal alcohol breath tester that incorporates the same fuel-cell technology used in our professional devices. LifeGuard is one of the first fuel-cell based personal breathalyzers available. Intended for the global consumer breathalyzer market, LifeGuard is sold direct to consumers in the U.S. and marketed through distributors worldwide.  Prior to sale in the U.S., all consumer breathalyzers, such as LifeGuard, are required by law to be tested and to receive 510(k) clearance from the Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) as Class I medical devices, which means the device is substantially equivalent in performance and safety to other currently marketed consumer breathalyzers.  LifeGuard received this FDA clearance in 2009.
 
     Lifeloc incorporated in Colorado in December 1983 and has been privately owned since that time.  Our fiscal year end is December 31.  Our principal executive offices are located at 12441 West 49th Avenue, Unit 4, Wheat Ridge, Colorado 80033-3338.  Our telephone number is (303) 431-9500.  Our websites are www.lifeloc.com and www.lifeguardbreathtester.com. Information contained on our websites does not constitute part of this registration statement.
 
Principal Products and Services and Methods of Distribution
 
     In 1989, we introduced our first breath alcohol tester, the PBA3000. Our Phoenix Classic was completed and released for sale in 1998, superseding the PBA3000. In turn, the Phoenix Classic has been superseded by our FC Series and Workplace Series of portable breath alcohol testers. Neither the PBA3000 nor the Phoenix Classic is actively sold today.
 
     In 2001, we completed and released for sale an additional product line, our new FC Series, designed specifically for the law enforcement and corrections markets. The FC Series of portable breath alcohol testers are currently being sold worldwide, having contributed to our growth since their introduction. The FC Series is designed to meet the needs of domestic and international law enforcement for roadside drink/drive testing and post-arrest parolee testing.
 
     In 2005 and 2006, we introduced two new models, the EV30 and Phoenix 6.0, which constitute our Workplace Series of testing devices.  We also sell supplies used in alcohol testing, such as mouthpieces used by our breathalyzers, as well as forms and labels used for record keeping, and calibration products for user re-calibration of our devices.  We offer optional service agreements on our equipment, re-calibration services, and spare parts, and we sell supporting instrument training and user certification training to our workplace customers.

     In 2006, we commenced selling breath alcohol equipment components that we manufacture to other original equipment manufacturers (“OEMs”) for inclusion as subassemblies or components in their breath alcohol testing devices.
 
     In 2009, we released for sale LifeGuard, a personal breath tester that incorporates the fuel-cell based technology employed in our FC series.  LifeGuard is sold direct to consumers in the U.S. via our web site (www.lifeguardbreathtester.com), and through distributors worldwide.
 
Competition and Markets
 
     We sell our products in a highly competitive market and we compete for business with both foreign and domestic manufacturers.  Most of our current competitors are larger and have substantially greater resources than we do.  In addition, there is an ongoing risk that other domestic or foreign companies who do not currently service or manufacture products for our target markets may seek to produce products or services that compete directly with ours.
 
     We believe that competition for sales of our alcohol monitoring products and services is based on product performance, product delivery, quality, service, training, price, device reliability, ease of use and speed.  We sell certain of our components to customers for incorporation into their own product lines and for resale under their own name.  We believe that, while our resources are more limited than those of our competitors, we will continue to compete successfully on the basis of product innovation, quality, reputation and continued customer service excellence.
 
     Workplace testing represented approximately 39% of our sales in 2010; we believe this sales mix will continue approximately as it has in the past.  The other large markets for us in 2010 comprised approximately 20% each:  law enforcement and corrections, international sales, and OEM.  We are unable to estimate our market penetration as there is little market size information available.
 
     One leading competitor is Intoximeters, Inc. of St. Louis, Missouri, a long-established company with strong name recognition in the field of alcohol testing.  It has well established sales channels, a large customer base, and a broad product line.  CMI of Owensboro, Kentucky, another major competitor, also has a well established name, strong position in stationary units used in police work, and international market coverage.  Draegerwerk AG & Co. KGaA (“Draeger”), based in Germany, manufactures safety and gas testing equipment.  Its breath alcohol testers are respected for their quality and performance.  
 
     In addition, other technologies for the measurement of breath alcohol exist and are employed in other market and application segments where the technology may be more suitable or developed to the specific requirements. These include:
 
•  
Infrared devices – use infrared light absorption to detect breath alcohol.  These devices generally lack portability, and are usually found in fixed locations, such as police stations, where subjects are brought for testing.  This technology has the advantage of being mandated by law in most states for evidential use in breath testing.
 
•  
Semi-conductor breath testing technology – used primarily in consumer breathalyzers.  Its primary advantage is low cost, but the technology is not widely accepted by professional users as being as accurate as fuel cell technology.
 
•  
Chemical tests – based on urine testing.  This approach to alcohol testing is more intrusive, less convenient than breath testing, and requires subsequent analysis by trained technicians for results.
 
•  
Blood alcohol tests – require blood samples.  These tests are widely believed to be the most accurate form of alcohol testing because they measure blood alcohol content directly from a sample of the subject’s blood.  However, the results are not instantaneous and the tests are more intrusive than breath alcohol testing.
 
Marketing
 
     Marketing activities associated with our business include the communication of our value proposition through direct mail, direct and indirect sales channels, trade shows and an information-rich online presence.  We sell our products to the workplace and law enforcement markets primarily through distributors and sales agents, while we sell our corrections and consumer products directly to the end user and our OEM products directly to manufacturers. Leveraging our installed base is important, as is maintaining a well trained distributor network.  In 2009, we revised our workplace distributor program to place additional emphasis on joint demand generation programs and additional volume incentives for growth.

Domestic Distribution
 
     We rely on one manufacturers’ representative agency for the law enforcement market in the western U.S., which covers Washington, Oregon, California, Nevada, Wyoming, Utah, Colorado, Arizona, New Mexico, Alaska, and Hawaii (the “Western Region”).  In 2010, these states generated approximately 25% of our total law enforcement business.  In the rest of the U.S., we sell directly to law enforcement consumers, and in 2010, modest unit sales were made in nearly every state outside of the Western Region.
 
     Sales made into the corrections market are most often made directly to customers.
 
     The majority of sales made into the workplace market are made through distributors located in various locations in the U.S.  Sales are made by these distributors pursuant to agreements that renew automatically each year unless terminated by either party with advance notice, and such agreements typically grant protected lead generation areas.
 
International Distribution
 
     Alcohol enforcement has long been a major concern, primarily in North America and northern Europe.  Reflecting a strong recent trend, however, countries around the world are instituting tougher alcohol abuse prevention laws, strengthening the enforcement of current laws, or both.  These laws set limits on the amount of alcohol an individual may have in the blood at specific times (e.g., while driving or during safety-sensitive work activities), or at any time for certain parolees and probationers.  Over 90% of our international sales for all product lines are made by local distributors, who are given territories pursuant to agreements that renew automatically each year unless terminated by either party with advance notice.  Lifeloc has sold instruments to customers in 39 countries on six continents worldwide.
 
Research and Development
 
     We believe that our future success depends to a large degree on our ability to conceive and develop new alcohol detection and measurement products and related services that (1) open new markets to Lifeloc, (2) enhance the performance of our current  products and (3) lower our costs or otherwise improve our methods of manufacture. Accordingly, we expect to continue to invest in research and development. We spent $375,683 and $256,361 during 2010 and 2009, respectively, on research and development. The amount spent in 2010 was higher than the amount spent in 2009 because we updated our core workplace and law enforcement product lines as well as customized certain of our devices to meet specific in-country language and procedural requirements.
 
Raw Materials and Principal Suppliers
 
     A basic component of our instrument product line is the fuel cell, which we obtain from only a few suppliers.  We believe that our demand for this component is small relative to the total supply, and that the materials and services required for the production of our products are currently available in sufficient production quantities and will be available for the foreseeable future.  However, there are relatively few suppliers of the high-quality fuel cell which our breathalyzers require.  Any sudden disruption to the supply of our fuel cells would pose a significant risk to our business. New sources of fuel cells are uncertain at this time and changes to our fuel cells would require approval by the DOT, which could have a material effect on our revenues in the law enforcement and workplace areas.  We purchase most of our fuel cells from Draeger; we have no master agreement with Draeger, and purchase fuel cells as needed pursuant to individual purchase orders.
 
     To address this concern, on July 1, 2010 we entered into a technology transfer agreement with Fuel-Cell Sensors (“FCS”), an unrelated third-party manufacturer with an established reputation for manufacturing fuel cells.  Pursuant to the technology transfer agreement, we acquired a perpetual-term license to technology that will allow us to manufacture our own fuel cells. We have made three equal lump-sum payments totaling $120,000 to FCS based on achievement of certain milestones in our establishment of successful production facilities. Going forward, we will pay a royalty to FCS based on the year in which the units are sold and the number sold. The agreement can be terminated by either party for cause, or by Lifeloc after three years from the effective date and upon payment of a termination fee. Pursuant to the technology transfer agreement, our goal is to be able to manufacture our own fuel cells commencing in 2011.  The agreement is included as Exhibit 10.5 of this registration statement.

Patents and Trademarks
 
     We rely, in part, upon patents, trade secrets and proprietary knowledge as well as personnel policies and employee confidentiality agreements concerning inventions and other creative efforts (collectively, “Lifeloc IP”) to develop and to maintain our competitive position. We do not believe that our business is dependent upon any patent, patent pending or license, although we believe that trade secrets and confidential know-how may be important to our commercial success.  No individuals, governmental entities or other companies share ownership or have any rights to any Lifeloc IP.
 
     We plan to file for patents, copyrights and trademarks in the United States to protect our intellectual property rights to the extent practicable.  We hold the rights to several United States patents and have one patent application pending.  These patents have expiration dates ranging from June 2020 to March 2029.  We are not aware of any infringements of our patents.  We plan to protect our patents from infringement in each instance where we determine that doing so would be economical in light of the expense involved and the level and availability of our financial resources.   While we believe that our pending application relates to a patentable device or concept, the patent may not be issued.
 
Employees
 
     As of March 31, 2011, we had 27 full-time employees and one part-time employee.  There were eleven employees in manufacturing, four in engineering/research and development, nine in sales and marketing and four in finance and administration.  We are not a party to any collective bargaining agreements.  We believe our relations with our employees are good.
 
Customers
 
     Revenues from our largest customers, as a percentage of total revenues, for fiscal years 2010 and 2009 were as follows:

   
2010
 
2009
Customer A
    16 %     10 %
Customer B
    6 %     8 %
Customer C
    4 %     4 %
All Others
    74 %     78 %
      100 %     100 %
 
No other customer accounted for more than 10% of our revenues in fiscal years 2010 and 2009.  At December 31, 2010, receivables included $106,958 (27%) from one customer, and no more than 7% from any other single customer.
 
Environmental Matters
 
     Our operations are subject to a variety of federal, state and local laws and regulations relating to the discharge of materials into the environment or otherwise relative to the protection of the environment.  Lifeloc provides cylinders of ethanol in nitrogen (UN1956, Class 2.2) to customers that are considered hazardous materials when shipped.  We provide a Material Safety Data Sheet (“MSDS”) with every tank, and all employees involved in shipping hazardous materials are required to have appropriate certification.  The DOT governs hazardous material shipments pursuant to Title 49 of the Code of Federal Regulations, and we comply with these shipping requirements as well as any other state or local laws governing the transportation of hazardous materials.  We believe that we comply with all applicable environmental laws and regulations.
 
Government Regulation of the Business
 
     All breath testers sold in the United States explicitly for personal use are regulated as Class I medical devices by the Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”). These devices require premarket clearance by the FDA under Section 510(k) of the Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act (21 U.S.C. § 301 et seq.) before a manufacturer can market them. Specifically, medical device manufacturers are required to submit a premarket notification if they intend to introduce a device into commercial distribution for the first time or reintroduce a device that will be significantly changed or modified to the extent that its safety or effectiveness could be affected. Such change or modification could relate to the design, material, chemical composition, energy source, manufacturing process, or intended use. Lifeloc currently sells one model for personal use, the LifeGuard, and we received FDA 510(k) clearance in 2009, prior to market introduction.  There have been no material changes or modifications in LifeGuard since its initial clearance. All of Lifeloc’s other products are designated for professional use and do not require FDA clearance.  The FDA provides regulations governing the manufacture and sale of our LifeGuard product, and we are subject to inspections by the FDA to determine our compliance with these regulations.  FDA inspections are conducted periodically at the discretion of the FDA.  As of December 31, 2010, we had not been inspected by the FDA; however, we believe we were in substantial compliance with all known regulations.
 
 
 

 
 
     We are also subject to regulation by the United States Department of Transportation and by various state departments of transportation so far as our other products are concerned.  The Omnibus Transportation Employee Testing Act of 1991 requires drug and alcohol testing of safety-sensitive transportation employees in aviation, trucking, railroads, mass transit, pipelines, and other transportation industries. The DOT Office of Drug & Alcohol Policy & Compliance (ODAPC) publishes, implements, and provides authoritative interpretations of these rules.  These regulations cover all transportation employers, safety-sensitive transportation employees, and service agents.  Manufacturers submit devices to the DOT for testing and approval.  Instruments are tested according to their model specifications and, if passed, included on the Conforming Products List of Evidential Devices published periodically in the Federal Register.  Law enforcement applications also require that portable breath testing instruments be included on the DOT Conforming Products List.  Lifeloc’s FC10, FC20, EV30, Phoenix and Phoenix 6.0 are included on the conforming products list.  We believe that we were in substantial compliance with all known regulations as of December 31, 2010 for our products sold into these markets and states.

International Regulations
 
     Many countries select a breath testing device for use in the law enforcement context based upon an in-country developed bid specification.  Many countries into which our products are sold recognize the United States DOT Conforming Product list in their selection criteria or have no regulations applicable to the sale of our products.   Australia follows Australian Standard 3547-1997 – Breath Alcohol Testing Devices for Personal Use for law-enforcement uses, and Europe is in the process of adopting and revising British Standard EN 15964 Breath Alcohol Testing Devices Other Than Single Use, also for use in the law enforcement context.  We are not presently certified to Australian or European standards for law-enforcement uses, but may decide at a future date to pursue such certification.

State and Local Regulations
 
     Portable fuel-cell based technology has been used to show probable cause in the following jurisdictions, based on the individual device’s DOT approval:   Alaska, Arkansas, California, Colorado, Delaware, District of Columbia, Florida, Hawaii, Iowa, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Maryland, Michigan, Minnesota, Mississippi, Missouri, Montana, Nebraska, Nevada, New Hampshire, New Mexico, New York, North Carolina, North Dakota, Pennsylvania, Puerto Rico, Rhode Island, South Dakota, Vermont, Virginia, West Virginia, and Wisconsin.  Courts in Georgia, Maine and Wyoming have also accepted preliminary breath test results from fuel-cell based breathalyzers for probable cause purposes.
 
     In California, Illinois and Idaho, results of portable fuel cell breath testers are admissible as evidence of intoxication in DUI prosecution. In other states, infra-red technology is considered the standard for evidence of intoxication, because of its ability to perform real-time analysis of the entire breath exhalation thereby giving it the ability to detect interference from mouth alcohol. In those states, portable fuel cell based breath testers are not admissible as evidence of intoxication, although they may still be used to establish probable cause.

Reports to Security Holders
 
     Upon effectiveness of this registration statement, we intend to comply with the reporting requirements of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), pursuant to Section 12(g) of the Exchange Act.  We will file annual, quarterly and other reports with the SEC and, accordingly, will furnish an annual report with audited financial statements to our stockholders.  Copies of this registration statement and all subsequent filings we make with the SEC may be inspected, without charge, at the SEC’s Public Reference Room at 100 F Street N.E., Washington, D.C. 20549, on official business days during the hours of 10 a.m. and 3 p.m.  The public may obtain information on the operation of the Public Reference Room by calling the SEC at 1-800-SEC-0330.  Copies of this material also should be available through the Internet by using the SEC’s EDGAR Archive, which is located at http://www.sec.gov .  We will also make such material available on our own website, which is located at http://www.lifeloc.com .

Item 1A.   Risk Factors
 
     The risks described below together with all of the other information included in this registration statement on Form 10 should be considered carefully.  The risks and uncertainties described below and elsewhere in this registration statement are not the only ones we face.  If any of the following risks actually occur, our business, financial condition or results of operations would likely suffer.  In that case the value of our shares could fall and a shareholder could lose all or part of his, her or its investment.
 
Risks Related to Our Business
 
The current worldwide economic downturn could have a negative impact on our business, operating results and financial condition.
 
     If the economic downturn continues, our customers may delay, reduce or cancel their purchases of our products, particularly if they or their customers have reduced capital budgets or have difficulty obtaining credit, and this would reduce our revenues.  The economic downturn could also increase competition, which could have the effect of forcing us to reduce our prices.  We could incur losses if a customer’s business fails and is unable to pay us, or pay us on a timely basis. Likewise, if our suppliers have difficulty in obtaining credit or in operating their businesses, they may not be able to provide us with the materials we use to manufacture our products.  These actions could result in reduced revenues and higher operating costs, and have an adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition.
 
We rely on customers who may not consistently purchase our products in the future and if we lose any one of these customers, our revenues may decline.
 
     Sixteen percent of our total sales in 2010 were attributable to one customer, with whom we do not have a long-term contract.  If orders from that customer were to decline or cease entirely, our revenues would be adversely affected.  Furthermore, at December 31, 2010, our accounts receivable balance included approximately 27% from one customer.
 
     In the future, a small number of customers may continue to represent a significant portion of our total revenues in any given period. These customers may not consistently purchase our products at a particular rate over any subsequent period.  A loss of any of these customers could adversely affect our revenues.
 
We rely heavily upon the talents of our Chief Executive Officer, the loss of whom could severely damage our business.
 
     Our performance depends to a large extent on a small number of key managerial personnel. In particular, we believe our success is highly dependent upon the services and reputation of our Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Barry R. Knott.  Loss of Mr. Knott’s services could severely damage our business. 
 
We must continue to be able to attract employees with the scientific and technical skills that our business requires, and if we are unable to attract and retain such individuals, our business could be severely damaged.
 
     Our ability to attract employees with a high degree of scientific and technical talent is crucial to the success of our business. There is intense competition for the services of such persons, and we cannot guarantee that we will continue to be able to attract and retain individuals possessing the necessary qualifications.  If we cannot attract such individuals, we may not be able to keep our products current, bring new innovation to market or produce our products. As a result, our business could be damaged.
 
We are subject to a high degree of regulatory oversight and, if we do not continue to receive the necessary regulatory approvals, our revenues may decline.
 
     The FDA and the Department of Transportation have cleared us to market the alcohol monitoring products we currently sell in the United States.  However, further FDA or DOT approval will be required before we can domestically market additional alcohol monitoring products that we may develop in the future.  We may also seek to sell current or future medical or drug-related products that require us to obtain FDA or DOT clearance to market such products.  We may also be required to obtain regulatory approvals or licenses from other federal, state or local agencies or comparable agencies in other countries.
 
8
 
 

 
     We may not continue to receive FDA or DOT clearance to market our current products or we may not obtain the necessary regulatory clearance, approvals or licenses for the marketing of any of our future products.  Also, we cannot predict the impact on our business of FDA or DOT regulations or determinations arising from future legislation or administrative action.  If we lose FDA or DOT permission to market our current products or we do not obtain regulatory permission to market our future products, our revenues may decline and our business may be harmed.
 
Our business in the domestic law enforcement area is susceptible to changes in state policies and DUI laws.
 
     Portable breath testers (“PBTs”) are not used to the same degree in each state. Usage is determined by a complex combination of individual state DUI laws, historical practice, and individual state directions for alcohol testing. Some states, like New Hampshire, do not accept breath alcohol testing as evidence. Other states may prefer different breath alcohol testing technology, such as infrared. Lifeloc cannot control the direction or timing of changes to individual state DUI laws, public and political sentiment toward the use of PBTs, or individual state preferences for a specific breath alcohol testing technology. These factors may threaten current state contracts and future state contracts and our revenues may decline, harming our business.
 
Our business relies on state contracts, governed by state contracting polices that are beyond our control.
 
     Many state purchases of PBTs are governed by state contracts with competitive price bids, multiple year terms and without guarantees of purchases. Other states prefer to share PBT usage across several vendors, also without guarantees of volume. These state practices limit Lifeloc’s ability to retain current business, forecast volumes and win new business. Furthermore, a significant amount of our law enforcement business is concentrated in five states (California, Michigan, Idaho, Colorado, and Nevada). Loss of this business, or delays or cancellations in purchasing by these states, could seriously impact our law enforcement business.
 
We are reliant on our sales representative group for access to the channels of distribution.
 
     Lifeloc uses sales representatives to market and sell to the law enforcement markets in an 11-state region, consisting of Washington, Oregon, California, Nevada, Wyoming, Utah, Colorado, Arizona, New Mexico, Alaska, and Hawaii. Our sales representatives also represent other companies’ law enforcement products. The cancellation of the agreement with our sales representative group, or shift in its focus to products made by companies other than Lifeloc, could negatively impact our current and future sales in these states. Currently, Lifeloc is not well known or well represented in other states outside of those in which we currently have state contracts or are represented by sales representatives. New business development in states where we have no significant installed base, sales representation or current business is uncertain.
 
Third parties may infringe on our patents, and as a result, we could incur significant expense in protecting our patents or not have sufficient resources to protect them.
 
     We hold several patents that are important to our business. Although we are not currently aware of any past or present infringements of our patents, we plan to protect these patents from infringement and obtain additional patents whenever feasible. To this end, we have obtained confidentiality agreements from our employees and consultants and others who have access to the design of our products and other proprietary information.  Protecting and obtaining patents, however, is both time consuming and expensive. We therefore may not have the resources necessary to assert all potential patent infringement claims or pursue all patents that might be available to us.  If our competitors or other third parties infringe on our patents, our business may be harmed.
 
Third parties may claim that we have infringed on their patents and as a result, we could be prohibited from using all or part of any technology used in our products.
 
     Should third parties claim a proprietary right to all or part of any technology that we use in our products, such a claim, regardless of its merit, could involve us in costly litigation.  If successful, such a claim could also result in us being unable to freely use the technology that was the subject of the claim, or sell products embodying such technology.  If we engage in litigation, our expenses may increase and our business may be harmed.  If we are prohibited from using a particular technology in our products, our revenues may decline and our business may be harmed.

We depend on the availability of certain key supplies and services that are available from only a few sources, and if we experience difficulty with a supplier, we may have difficulty finding alternative sources of supply.
 
     We require certain key supplies for our products, particularly fuel cells, that are available from only a few sources.  Based upon our ordering experience to date, we believe the materials and services required for the production of our products are currently available in sufficient quantities. However, this does not mean that we will continue to have timely access to adequate supplies of essential materials and services in the future or that supplies of these materials and services will be available on satisfactory terms when the need arises. Our business could be severely damaged if we become unable to procure essential materials and services in adequate quantities and at acceptable prices.
 
     From time to time, subcontractors may produce certain of our products for us, and our business is subject to the risk that these subcontractors fail to make timely delivery.  Our products and services are also from time to time used as components in the products of other manufacturers. We are therefore subject to the risk that manufacturers that integrate our products or services into their own products may change their source of supply to other vendors, may change their product designs in a way that eliminates our components, may choose to have their components manufactured by other means, and/or become unable to acquire essential supplies and services from third parties in a timely fashion.  If this occurs, we may not be able to deliver our products on a timely basis and our revenues may decline.
  
Our customers may claim that the products we sold them were defective, and if our insurance is not sufficient to cover a claim, we would be liable for the excess.
 
     Like any manufacturer, we are and always have been exposed to liability claims resulting from the use of our products.  We maintain product liability insurance to cover us in the event of liability claims, and as of March 31, 2011, no such claims have been asserted or threatened against us.  However, our insurance may not be sufficient to cover all possible future product liabilities.
 
We could be liable if our business operations harmed the environment, and a failure to maintain compliance with environmental laws could severely damage our business.
 
     Our operations are subject to a variety of federal, state and local laws and regulations relating to the protection of the environment.  From time to time, we use hazardous materials in our operations.  Although we believe that we are in material compliance with all applicable environmental laws and regulations, our business could be severely damaged by any failure to maintain such compliance.
 
Our quarterly financial results vary quarter to quarter, which may adversely affect our stock price. We cannot predict with any certainty our operating results in any particular fiscal quarter.
 
     Our quarterly operating results may vary significantly depending upon factors such as:

the timing of completion of significant orders;
the timing and amount of our research and development expenditures;
the costs of initial production in connection with new products;
the availability, quality and cost of key components that go into the assembly of our products;
the timing of new product introductions — both by us and by our competitors;
changes in the regulatory environment and regulations under which we operate;
the loss of a major customer;
the timing and level of market acceptance of new products or enhanced versions of our existing products;
our ability to retain existing employees, customers and our customers’ continued demand for our products and services;
our customers’ inventory levels, and levels of demand for our customers’ products and services; and
competitive pricing pressures.
 
     We may not be able to grow or sustain revenues or achieve or maintain profitability on a quarterly or annual basis, and levels of revenue and/or profitability may vary from one such period to another.
 
10
 
 

 
We have a number of large, well-financed competitors who have research and marketing capabilities that are superior to ours.
 
     The industry in which we compete is highly competitive. Many of our existing and potential competitors have greater financial resources and manufacturing capabilities, more established and larger marketing and sales organizations and larger technical staffs than we have.  Other companies, some with greater experience in the alcohol monitoring industry, produce products and services that compete with our products and services. If any of our competitors are successful in developing products that are superior to our products, or competing products that sell for lower prices, this may cause a reduction in the demand for our products and a reduction in our revenue and our profits.
 
Our products rely on technology that may become outdated or out of favor.
 
     All of Lifeloc’s products use fuel cell technology for the measurement of breath alcohol results. This technology has been developed and refined over many years by Lifeloc and our major competitors. While we expect it to remain as the dominant technology in breath testing devices, other technologies for the measurement of breath alcohol exist and are employed in other market and application segments where the technology is more suitable or developed to the specific requirements. It is possible that future development of these technologies could pose a risk to Lifeloc’s business. See “Item 1. Business – Competition and Markets” for more information about these other technologies.
 
Risks Related to Our Stock
 
Shares of our common stock lack a significant trading market.
 
     Shares of our common stock are not yet eligible for trading on any national securities exchange. Our common stock may be quoted in the over-the-counter market on the OTC Bulletin Board or in what are commonly referred to as “pink sheets.” However, these markets are highly illiquid. There is no assurance that an active trading market in our common stock will develop, or if such a market develops, that it will be sustained. In addition, there is a greater chance for market volatility for securities quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board as compared with securities traded on a national exchange. This volatility may be caused by a variety of factors, including the lack of readily available quotations, the absence of consistent administrative supervision of “bid” and “ask” quotations and generally lower trading volume. As a result, an investor may find it more difficult to dispose of, or to obtain accurate quotations as to the market value of, our common stock, or to obtain coverage for significant news events concerning us, and the common stock could become substantially less attractive for margin loans, for investment by financial institutions, as collateral for borrowing, as consideration in future capital raising transactions or for other purposes.
 
     Under Exchange Act Rule 144, a person who has beneficially owned restricted shares of our common stock for at least one year is entitled to sell their securities provided that such person is not deemed to have been one of our affiliates at the time of, or at any time during the three months preceding a sale. Persons who have beneficially owned restricted shares of our common stock for at least one year but who are our affiliates at the time of, or at any time during the three months preceding a sale, would be subject to additional restrictions, by which such person would be entitled to sell within any three-month period only a number of securities that does not exceed the greater of either of the following: 1% of the total number of securities of the same class then outstanding; or the average weekly trading volume of such securities during the four calendar weeks preceding the filing of a notice on Form 144 with respect to the sale. Such sales by affiliates must also comply with the manner of sale, current public information and notice provisions of Rule 144.  A sale under Rule 144 or under any other exemption from the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), if available, or pursuant to registration of shares of common stock of present stockholders, may have a depressive effect upon the price of the common stock in any market that may develop.
 
     Additionally, the price of our securities may be volatile as a result of a number of factors, including, but not limited to, the following:

·  
our ability to successfully conceive and to develop new products and services to enhance the performance characteristics and methods of manufacture of existing products;
·  
our ability to retain existing customers and customers’ continued demand for our products and services;
·  
the timing of our research and development expenditures and of new product introductions;
·  
the timing and level of acceptance of new products or enhanced versions of our existing products; and
·  
price and volume fluctuations in the stock market at large which do not relate to our operating performance.
 
 

 11
 
 

 
Our principal stockholder has significant voting power and may take actions that may not be in the best interests of other stockholders.
 
     Vern D. Kornelsen, Chairman of the Board of Directors, secretary, and Chief Financial Officer, beneficially owned approximately 78% of our outstanding common stock as of March 31, 2011. Through this ownership, Mr. Kornelsen is able to control the composition of our board of directors and direct our management and policies. Accordingly, Mr. Kornelsen has the direct or indirect power to:

·  
elect all of our directors and thereby control our policies and operations;
·  
amend our bylaws and some provisions of our certificate of incorporation; and
·  
prevent mergers, consolidations, sales of all or substantially all our assets or other extraordinary transactions.
 
     Mr. Kornelsen's significant ownership interest could adversely affect investors' perceptions of our corporate governance. In addition, Mr. Kornelsen may have an interest in pursuing acquisitions, divestitures and other transactions that involve risks to us and you. For example, Mr. Kornelsen could cause us to make acquisitions that increase our indebtedness or to sell revenue generating assets. Mr. Kornelsen may from time to time acquire and hold interests in businesses that compete directly or indirectly with us.

“Penny stock” rules may make buying or selling our securities difficult, which may make our stock less liquid and make it harder for investors to buy and sell our securities.
 
     Trading in our securities is subject to the SEC’s “penny stock” rules and it is anticipated that trading in our securities will continue to be subject to the penny stock rules for the foreseeable future.  The SEC has adopted regulations that generally define a penny stock to be any equity security that has a market price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions.  These rules require that any broker-dealer who recommends our securities to persons other than prior customers and accredited investors must, prior to the sale, make a special written suitability determination for the purchaser and receive the purchaser’s written agreement to execute the transaction.  Unless an exception is available, the regulations require the delivery, prior to any transaction involving a penny stock, of a disclosure schedule explaining the penny stock market and the risks associated with trading in the penny stock market.  In addition, broker-dealers must disclose commissions payable to both the broker-dealer and the registered representative and current quotations for the securities they offer.  The additional burdens imposed upon broker-dealers by these requirements may discourage broker-dealers from recommending transactions in our securities, which could severely limit the liquidity of our securities and consequently adversely affect the market price for our securities.
  
Blue Sky considerations may limit sales in certain states.
 
     The holders of our securities and persons who desire to purchase them in any trading market that might develop in the future should be aware that there may be significant state law restrictions upon the ability of investors to resell our securities. Investors should consider any secondary market for our securities to be a limited one. We intend to seek coverage and publication of information regarding the company in an accepted publication which permits a “manual exemption.” This manual exemption permits a security to be distributed in a particular state without being registered if the company issuing the security has a listing for that security in a securities manual recognized by the state. However, it is not enough for the security to be listed in a recognized manual. The listing entry must contain (1) the names of issuers, officers, and directors, (2) an issuer's balance sheet, and (3) a profit and loss statement for either the fiscal year preceding the balance sheet or for the most recent fiscal year of operations. There is no guarantee that we will be able to secure a listing containing all of this information or how long it might take to secure such a listing. Until a listing is published, trading in our securities will be subject to significant state law restrictions. Most of the accepted manuals are those published in Standard and Poor's, Moody's Investor Service, Fitch's Investment Service, and Best's Insurance Reports. While many states expressly recognize these manuals, a smaller number of states declare that they “recognize securities manuals” but do not specify the recognized manuals, making applicability of the manual exemption uncertain in those states. The following states do not have provisions expressly recognizing the manual exemption: Alabama, Georgia, Illinois, Kentucky, Louisiana, Montana, South Dakota, Tennessee, Vermont and Wisconsin. While we may, in our discretion, cause our securities to be registered under the state securities laws of these or other states, there is no guarantee that we will do so.
 
We may issue shares in the future, diluting your interest in us.
 
     An additional 44,000 shares of our common stock are reserved for issuance under our 2002 Stock Option Plan as of March 31, 2011.  Moreover, we expect to issue additional shares and options to purchase shares of our common stock to compensate employees, consultants and directors, and we may issue additional shares to raise capital.  Any such issuances will have the effect of further diluting the interest of the holders of our securities.
 

 12
 
 

 
Stockholders should not anticipate receiving cash dividends on our stock.
 
     We have never declared or paid any cash dividends or distributions on our capital stock. We currently intend to retain future earnings to support operations and to finance expansion and therefore do not anticipate paying any cash dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future.

Item 2.   Financial Information
 
Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
 
     The following is a discussion of our financial condition and results of operations, and should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and the related notes included elsewhere in this registration statement.  Certain statements contained in this section are not historical facts, including statements about our strategies and expectations about new and existing products, market demand, acceptance of new and existing products, technologies and opportunities, market and industry segment growth, and return on investments in products and markets.  These statements are forward looking statements and involve substantial risks and uncertainties that may cause actual results to differ materially from those indicated by the forward-looking statements.  All forward-looking statements in this section are based on information available to us on the date of this document, and we assume no obligation to update such forward looking statements.  Readers of this registration statement are strongly encouraged to review the section titled “Risk Factors.”
 
Overview
 
     We have been a developer and manufacturer of advanced portable breath alcohol testing  instruments since 1986.  We design and produce high-quality, high precision and fast recovery portable alcohol testers for use in the workplace, clinics, schools, law enforcement, corrections, and other applications.  We offer accessories, support, training and supplies for our instruments.  Our internet websites are www.lifeloc.com and www.lifeguardbreathtester.com .  Information contained on our websites does not constitute part of this prospectus.
 
     The areas in which we do business are highly competitive and include both foreign and domestic competitors. Most of our competitors are larger and have substantially greater resources than we do. Furthermore, other domestic or foreign companies, some with greater financial resources than we have, may seek to produce products or services that compete with ours. We routinely outsource certain sub-assemblies both domestic and offshore, to obtain cost effective production. We maintain all final assembly in the United States to ensure our products are rigorously tested and meet regulatory requirements and customer expectations.
 
     We believe that competition for sales of our products and services is based on product performance, reliability, ease of use and price.  Barriers to entry include the regulatory requirements, quality distribution, and expertise in the design, manufacture, calibration and refinement of our products.
 
     We believe that our future success depends to a large degree on our ability to continue to conceive and to develop new products and services, develop and penetrate our markets and continually lower  our manufacturing costs.  Accordingly, we expect to continue investing in research and development, to the extent funds are available.
 
Outlook
 
     Installed Base of Breathalyzers .  We believe that the installed base of our breathalyzers will increase as the inherent risks associated with drinking while driving, and while working in sensitive jobs, become more widely acknowledged and as our network of direct and independent sales representatives grows.  We expect the replacement sales of our instruments and accessories to increase as additional workplace environments, law enforcement agencies, schools, clinics, and other venues become better penetrated.  We believe that increased marketing efforts, the introduction of new products and the expansion of our distribution channels may provide the basis for increased sales and continuing profitable operations.  However, these measures, or any others that we may adopt, may not result in either increased sales or continuing profitable operations.
 
 
13
 
 

 
     Possibility of Operating Losses.   We achieved profitable operations in 2003, and have operated profitably each year since then.  Previously, we had incurred losses since our inception.  At December 31, 2010 we have an accumulated deficit of $1,821,746.  There is no assurance that we will not incur operating losses in any given quarter or year in the future.
 
     Sales Growth .  We expect to increase sales in the U.S. and internationally. We believe that improved economic conditions, our new products and increased market penetration will contribute to sales growth in  2011.  International markets are growing more quickly than  the more mature U.S. market due to increased awareness by government, consumers and business of the negative consequences and social costs of alcohol abuse on productivity, health and safety.
  
     Sales and Marketing Expenses.   We continue to focus our efforts on expanding  our domestic and international sales. Internationally we are concentrating on improving the caliber of our distributors and adding new distributors in previously unrepresented countries. We are also undertaking the process of obtaining certification for our devices from various international government certification agencies. Domestically we will continue to support our workplace distributors with new products, such as drug screening products, and greater lead generation activities. Sales and marketing expenses are expected to increase as we intensify these activities.
  
     Research and Development Expenses .  Research and development expenses are expected to increase in support of refinements to our breathalyzer product line, and to support the development of new products.
 
Results of Operations
 
     Net sales. Our sales for the year ended December 31, 2010 (“FY 10”) were $6,118,960, an increase of 43% from $4,287,597 in the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009 (“FY 09”). Our international business grew significantly from the penetration of new markets and our entry into the consumer market with the Lifeguard   personal breath alcohol tester. Domestically our OEM business, which is tied to the growth of ignition interlocks, saw rapid growth. In the workplace, growth was fueled by improvements in the economy and customers upgrading from older generation Lifeloc equipment to our latest models.
  
     Gross profit.   Gross profit in FY 10 and FY 09 remained consistent at 48%.
 
     Research and development expenses.   Research and development expenses were $375,683 in FY 10, an increase of $119,322 or 47% from $256,361 in FY 09.  The increase was primarily a result of increases in compensation and in outside services related to new product development. It was driven by updates made to our core workplace and law enforcement product lines as well as by customization of our devices to meet specific in-country language and procedural requirements.
 
     Sales and marketing expenses.   Sales and marketing expenses were $934,955 in FY 10, an increase of $149,929, or 19% from $785,026 in FY 09.  The increase resulted from an increase in staffing and an increase in compensation due to increased sales volume, and increased spending on such items as public relations, sales supplies, and rebate expense.
 
     General and administrative expenses.   General and administrative expenses were $877,288 in FY 10, an increase of $177,188, or 25%, from $700,100 in FY 09.  The increase consisted primarily of increased compensation and in professional fees as a result of registering our warrant distribution with the SEC, which was abandoned in 2010, offset in part by a reduction in regulatory compliance expense from FY 09.
 
     Loss on currency exchange.   The loss on currency exchange increased from $75,502 in FY 09 to $117,773 in FY 10, an increase of $42,271, or 56%, as a result of additional purchases of components from foreign vendors, as well as from an increase in the exchange rate.
 
     Net income.   Net income in FY 10 of $406,794 represented an increase of $229,173 compared to FY 09 net income of $177,621.  The increase of 129% is a result of an increase in sales, offset in part by an increase in the loss on currency exchange and by a higher provision for federal and state income taxes.

Trends and Uncertainties That May Affect Future Results
 
     We believe sales of our products will continue to increase as we experience sales growth  We expect our quarter-to-quarter revenue fluctuations to continue due the unpredictable timing of large orders from both new and repeat customers. Going forward, we intend to focus our development efforts on products we believe offer the best prospects to increase our intermediate and near-term revenues.
 
14
 
 

 
 
     Our property and equipment expenditures, and patents, during FY 10 were $154,791, compared to $36,600 for 2009.  We also purchased technology for $120,000 to assist us with manufacturing a component of our product. We expect to begin amortizing this cost in 2011, using the straight-line method and a three-year life.
 
     We believe that the performance of our fuel cell based breathalyzer technology provides an opportunity for continued market share growth.  We believe that the market awareness of fuel cell technology is improving and that this will benefit sales efforts in FY 11 and beyond.   Our FY 11 operating plan is focused on growing sales, increasing gross profit, with proportional increases in research and development costs while advancing profits and positive cash flows.  We cannot predict with certainty the expected sales, gross profit, net income or loss and usage of cash and cash equivalents for FY 11.  However, we believe that cash resources and borrowing capacity will be sufficient to fund our operations for at least the next twelve months under our current operating plan.  If we are unable to manage the business operations in line with our budget expectations, it could have a material adverse effect on business viability, financial position, results of operations and cash flows. Further, if we are not successful in sustaining profitability and remaining at least cash flow break-even, additional capital may be required to maintain ongoing operations.
 
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
 
     Our financial statements and accompanying notes have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles applied on a consistent basis. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with United States generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods.
 
     We regularly evaluate the accounting policies and estimates that we use to prepare our financial statements. In general, management’s estimates are based on historical experience, on information from third party professionals, and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the facts and circumstances. Actual results could differ from those estimates made by management.
 
     We believe the following critical accounting policies affect the more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our financial statements.
 
     Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.  The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, sales and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities.  On an on-going basis, we evaluate our estimates, including those related to bad debts, inventories, sales returns, warranty, contingencies and litigation.  We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources.  Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.  We believe the following critical accounting policies affect the more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our financial statements.
 
     We maintain allowances for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from the inability of our customers to make required payments.  If the financial condition of our customers were to deteriorate, resulting in an impairment of their ability to make payments, additional allowances would be required, which would increase our expenses during the periods in which any such allowances were made.  The amount recorded as a provision for bad debts in each period is based upon our assessment of the likelihood that we will be paid on our outstanding receivables, based on customer-specific as well as general considerations.  To the extent that our estimates prove to be too high, and we ultimately collect a receivable previously determined to be impaired, we may record a reversal of the provision in the period of such determination.
 
     We provide for the estimated cost of product warranties at the time sales are recognized.  While we engage in extensive product quality programs and processes, including actively monitoring and evaluating the quality of our component suppliers, we have experienced some costs related to warranty liability.  The warranty accrual is based upon historical experience and is adjusted based on current experience.  Should actual warranty experience differ from our estimates, revisions to the estimated warranty liability would be required.
 
 
15
 
 

 
     We reduce inventory for estimated obsolete or unmarketable inventory equal to the difference between the cost of inventory and the estimated market value based upon assumptions about future demand and market conditions.  If actual market conditions are less favorable than those projected by management, additional inventory write-downs may be required.  Any write-downs of inventory would reduce our reported net income during the period in which such write-downs were applied.
 
     We recognize deferred income tax assets and liabilities for the expected future income tax consequences, based on enacted tax laws, of temporary differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities.  Deferred tax assets are then reduced, if deemed necessary, by a valuation allowance for the amount of any tax benefits which, more likely than not based on current circumstances, are not expected to be realized.
 
     Property and equipment are stated at cost, with depreciation computed over the estimated useful lives of the assets, generally five years (three years for software).  We mostly use the double declining method of depreciation for property and equipment, and the straight line method for software.  Maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred and major additions, replacements and improvements are capitalized.
 
     We amortize our patent costs over their estimated useful lives, which is typically the remaining statutory life.  From time to time, we may be required to adjust these lives based on advances in technology, competitor actions, and the like.  We review the recorded amounts of patents at each period end to determine if their carrying amount is still recoverable based on our expectations regarding sales of related products.  Such an assessment, in the future, may result in a conclusion that the assets are impaired, with a corresponding charge against earnings.
 
     Stock-based compensation is presented in accordance with the guidance of Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 718, Compensation — Stock Compensation (“ASC 718”).  Under the provisions of ASC 718, companies are required to estimate the fair value of share-based payment awards made to employees and directors including employee stock options based on estimated fair values on the date of grant using an option-pricing model.  The value of the portion of the award that is ultimately expected to vest is recognized as expense over the requisite service periods in our statement of operations.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
 
     We compete in highly technical, and very competitive segments of the alcohol testing  marketplace. Products can take several years to develop and introduce to distributors and end users.  Furthermore, many of our instruments are regulated by the either the FDA, the DOT, and/or other regulatory bodies to ensure the ultimate quality and functionality of our products.  Regulatory compliance can contribute to the significant cost and time needed to maintain existing products and develop and introduce product enhancements and new product innovations.
 
     We have traditionally funded working capital needs through product sales, management of working capital components of our business, and by cash received from private offerings of our common stock, warrants to purchase shares of our common stock and notes.  In our earlier years, we incurred quarter to quarter operating losses to develop current product applications, utilizing a number of proprietary and patent-pending technologies.  Although we have been profitable during the last several years, operating losses may occur in the future.  Should that situation arise, we may not be able to obtain working capital funds necessary in the time frame needed and at satisfactory terms or at all.
 
     On May 11, 2004, we entered into a credit facility agreement with Citywide Bank, which was renewed for one year on May 11, 2010.  The terms of the credit facility include a line of credit for $150,000 for one year at an interest rate calculated at prime rate plus 1%.  Our borrowing under the credit facility is limited by our eligible receivables and inventory at the time of borrowing.  At December 31, 2010 and 2009, we had not borrowed any amounts from the credit facility.  The credit facility requires us to meet certain financial covenants.  At December 31, 2010 we were in compliance with the financial covenants.
 
     As of December 31, 2010, cash and cash equivalents were $1,461,900, accounts receivable were $393,118 and current liabilities were $792,037 resulting in a net liquid asset amount of $1,062,981.  We believe that the introduction of several new products during the last several fiscal years, along with new and on-going customer relationships, will continue to generate sufficient revenues, required to maintain profitability.  If these revenues are not achieved on a timely basis, we will be required to implement cost reduction measures.
 
16
 
 

 
     We generally provide a standard one-year warranty on materials and workmanship to our customers.  We provide for estimated warranty costs at the time product revenue is recognized.  Warranty costs are included as a component of cost of goods sold in the accompanying statements of operations.  For the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, warranty costs were not deemed significant.
 
     As of December 31, 2010, we have no material commitments for capital expenditures.
 
Off-Balance Sheet Transactions
 
     We currently have no off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future material effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.
 
Item 3.   Properties
 
     We conduct all of our operations at a leased facility at 12441 West 49 th Avenue, Unit 4, Wheat Ridge, Colorado under lease agreements that run through April 30, 2015.   Rent expense for our facility for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009 was $103,544 and $96,039, respectively.  On May 1, 2010, we amended and extended our lease, which, when added to our existing space, provides us with 11,655 square feet of office and manufacturing/warehouse space at an average monthly cost of $8,866 over the life of the lease.  We believe this facility is adequate for our current operations and adequately covered by insurance.  Significant increases in production or the addition of significant equipment additions or manufacturing capabilities in connection with the production of our line of breathalyzers and other products may, however, require the acquisition or lease of additional facilities.  We may establish production facilities domestically or overseas to produce key assemblies or components for our products.  Overseas facilities, if established, may subject us to the political and economic risks associated with overseas operations.  The loss of or inability to establish or maintain such additional domestic or overseas facilities, if acquired, could materially adversely affect our competitive position and profitability.

Narrative to Summary Compensation Table
 
Employment Contracts and Termination of Employment Arrangements
 
     We have no employment contracts in place with any Named Executive Officer, nor do we have any equity-incentive plans covering such Named Executive Officers.  We have no compensatory plan or arrangement with respect to any Named Executive Officer where such plan or arrangement will result in payments to such Named Executive Officer upon or following his resignation, or other termination of employment with the Company and its subsidiaries, or as a result of a change in control of the Company or a change in the Named Executive Officers’ responsibilities following a change in control.
 
     Our board of directors has approved the contribution of 15% of pre-bonus, pre-tax profits to a bonus pool, which has been paid out to our executive officers, excluding our Chief Financial Officer, Vern D. Kornelsen.  The allocation of such payments is made at the discretion of the President with approval by the board of directors.   In 2010, we paid bonuses equaling $109,092 to our executive officers, including $48,485 to Mr. Knott, $36,364 to Mr. Lary, and $24,243 to Ms. LaRose.

Long Term Incentive Plans; Awards in Last Fiscal Year
 
     We made no awards under any long-term incentive plan to our Named Executive Officers during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010.
 
Profit Sharing and 401(k) Plan

Participants may defer up to 100% of their gross pay up to plan limits.  Participants are immediately vested in their contributions.  We may make discretionary contributions based on corporate financial results for the fiscal year, which were 3% of the total payroll of the participating employees in 2010 and 2009.  In 2010 and 2009 we contributed $21,158 and $19,534 respectively.  Vesting in a contribution account (our contribution) is based on years of service, with a participant fully vested after six years of credited service.

Director Compensation
 
     We did not pay any compensation to our directors during the fiscal years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009.
 
  Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation
 
     During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010, all members of our board of directors served as members of our Compensation Committee. No member of our Compensation Committee at any time during the last fiscal year, or prior to the last fiscal year, was an officer or employee of the Company except Barry R. Knott and Vern D. Kornelsen.  Additionally, no member of our Compensation Committee had any relationship with us that would be required to be disclosed as a related person transaction except as set forth herein.  During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010, none of our executive officers or employees except Barry R. Knott and Vern D. Kornelsen participated in deliberations of our board of directors concerning executive officer compensation.
 
     During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010, none of our executive officers:
 
•  
served as a member of the compensation committee (or other board committee performing equivalent functions or, in the absence of any such committee, the board of directors) of another entity, one of whose executive officers served as a member of our Compensation Committee;
 
•  
as a director of another entity, one of whose executive officers served as a member of our Compensation Committee; or
 
•  
as a member of the compensation committee (or other board committee performing equivalent functions or, in the absence of any such committee, the board of directors) of another entity, one of whose executive officers served as a member of our board of directors.

Item 7.    Certain Relationships and Related Transactions, Director Independence
 
     We have not participated in any transactions since the beginning of our last two fiscal years in which a person deemed to be a related person pursuant to Item 404 of SEC Regulation S-K had or will have a direct or indirect material interest. Lifeloc is not a subsidiary of any parent company.
 
     As of March 31, 2011, Alan C. Castrodale, Robert D. Greenlee, Barry R. Knott, Vern D. Kornelsen, and Dr. Robert H. Summers serve as our directors.  Currently, Mr. Castrodale, Mr. Greenlee and Dr. Summers are independent directors, as defined under the standards of independence set forth in the NASDAQ Marketplace Rules.  Our securities have not been traded previously.
 
Item 8.    Legal Proceedings
 
     We may be involved from time to time in litigation, negotiation and settlement matters that may have a material effect on our operations or finances.  We are not aware of any pending or threatened litigation against us or our officers or directors in their capacity as such that could have a material impact on our operations or finances.
 
Item 9.    Market Price of and Dividends on the Registrant’s Equity and Related Stockholder Matters
 
Shares Eligible for Future Sale
 
     Historically, there has not been a public market for our securities, and we cannot predict what effect, if any, market sales of shares of our securities or the availability of our securities for sale will have on the market price of our securities prevailing from time to time. Nevertheless, sales of substantial amounts of our securities, including the warrants and/or shares issued upon the exercise of the warrants, in the public market, or the perception that such sales could occur, could materially and adversely affect the market price of our securities and could impair our future ability to raise capital through the sale of our equity or equity-related securities at a time and price that we deem appropriate.
 

 21
 
 

 
 
     The restricted shares held by our affiliates and non-affiliates will be available for sale in the public market at various times after we have begun filing reports under the Exchange Act pursuant to Rule 144. In general, under Rule 144 as in effect on the date of this registration statement, a person who has not been an affiliate at any time during the three months preceding a sale, and who has beneficially owned shares of our common stock for at least six months, would be entitled to sell an unlimited number of shares of our common stock provided current public information about us is available and, after owning such shares for at least one year, would be entitled to sell an unlimited number of shares of our common stock without restriction. Our affiliates who have beneficially owned shares of our common stock for at least six months are entitled to sell within any three-month period a number of shares that does not exceed the greater of:

1% of the number of shares of our common stock then outstanding; or

the average weekly trading volume of our common stock during the four calendar weeks preceding the filing of a notice on Form 144 with respect to the sale.
 
     Sales under Rule 144 by our affiliates are also subject to manner of sale provisions and notice requirements and to the availability of current public information about us.
 
Holders
 
     As of March 31, 2011, we had approximately 85 holders of record of our common stock. Holders of record include nominees who may hold shares on behalf of multiple owners.
 
Dividends
 
     We have not declared any dividends since our inception in 1983, and at present have no plans to do so.  We intend to retain our earnings, if any, to finance research and development and working capital for expansion of our business.
 
Equity Compensation Plan Information
 
     We adopted our 2002 Stock Option Plan (the “Plan”) to promote our and our stockholders’ interests by helping us to attract, retain and motivate our key employees and associates. Under the terms of the Plan, the Board of Directors may grant either “nonqualified” or “incentive” stock options, as defined by the Internal Revenue Code and related regulations. The purchase price of the shares subject to a stock option will be the fair market value of our common stock on the date the stock option is granted.  Generally, vesting of stock options occurs immediately at the time of the grant of such option and all stock options must be exercised within five years from the date granted. All outstanding key employee stock options were exercised or had lapsed as of May 5, 2010, and none are outstanding as of March 31, 2011.  The number of common shares reserved for issuance under the Plan as of March 31, 2011 is 44,000, subject to adjustment for dividends, stock splits or other relevant changes in our capitalization. Information set forth herein gives effect to the 1 for 2 reverse stock split that took place on May 3, 2010.

Item 10.   Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities

Item 11.  Description of Registrant’s Securities to be Registered
 
           
     The following description of our capital stock and provisions of our Articles of Incorporation and By-laws, each as amended, is only a summary. You should also refer to our Articles of Incorporation and our By-laws, copies of which are included as exhibits to this registration statement and are hereby incorporated by reference.  Our authorized capital stock consists of 50,000,000 shares of common stock, no par value per share.
 
     Holders of our common stock are entitled to one vote for each share held on all matters submitted to a vote of our stockholders.  Holders of our common stock have no rights under our Articles of Incorporation or our By-laws regarding dividends unless and until dividends are declared by the board of directors, nor do they have any rights under our Articles of Incorporation or our By-laws regarding preemptive rights.  The outstanding shares of common stock are fully paid and non-assessable.
 
Item 12. Indemnification of Directors and Officers
 
     We are organized under the laws of the State of Colorado.  Our officers and directors are indemnified as provided by the Colorado Business Corporation Act (“CBCA”), our Articles of Incorporation, and our By-laws. The General Laws of Colorado provide that we must indemnify a director who was wholly successful, on the merits or otherwise, in the defense of any proceeding to which he was a party because he was a director of our Company against reasonable expenses incurred by him in connection with the proceeding.
 
     In addition, we may indemnify a director against liability incurred in a proceeding if:
 
  (1)(i) he conducted himself in good faith; (ii) he reasonably believed that his conduct was in the best interests of our Company or that his conduct was at least not opposed to the best interests of our Company; and (iii) in the case of any criminal proceeding, he had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful; or
 
(2) he engaged in conduct for which he shall not be liable as provided in our Articles of Incorporation which may limit personal liability of a director as provided in the CBCA.
 
     Under the CBCA, a director’s conduct with respect to an employee benefit plan for a purpose he reasonably believed to be in the interests of the participants in, and the beneficiaries of, the plan is conduct that satisfies the requirement that his conduct was at least not opposed to the best interests of the corporation. Unless ordered by a court as provided in the statute, we may not indemnify a director if his conduct did not satisfy the standards set forth above.
 
     The termination of a proceeding by judgment, order, settlement, or conviction, or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, is not, of itself, determinative that the director did not meet the relevant standard of conduct described the CBCA.
 
     Our Articles of Incorporation, as amended, provide that our directors shall not be liable to us or our stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except to the extent that the exculpation from liabilities is not permitted under the CBCA as in effect at the time such liability is determined. Our By-laws provide that we shall indemnify our directors and officers to the full extent permitted by the laws of the State of Colorado against all liabilities and expenses except with respect to any matter as to which he or she shall have been adjudicated in any proceeding not to have acted in good faith in the reasonable belief that his or her action was in the best interest of our Company or in the best interests of the participants or beneficiaries of an employee benefit plan. In addition, we hold a Director and Officer Liability and Corporate Indemnification Policy.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
 
 


 
To the Board of Directors and
Stockholders of Lifeloc Technologies, Inc.
Wheat Ridge, Colorado

 
We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Lifeloc Technologies, Inc. as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, and the related statements of income, stockholders' equity and cash flows for the years then ended. Lifeloc Technologies, Inc's management is responsible for these financial statements. 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 audits 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 Lifeloc Technologies, 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.

LIFELOC TECHNOLOGIES, INC.
Notes to Financial Statements
December 31, 2010 and 2009
 
1.    ORGANIZATION AND NATURE OF BUSINESS

Lifeloc Technologies, Inc. (the "Company" or “Lifeloc”) was incorporated in Colorado in December 1983 and has, since 1986, developed, manufactured and sold proprietary, fuel-cell based, breath alcohol testing equipment.  In 2001, we completed and released for sale an additional product line, the FC Series, also approved by NHSTA and designed specifically for the law enforcement and corrections markets.  Since release, FC breath testers have established a reputation of innovation, highest quality and durability. They are currently being sold worldwide and have contributed to our steady growth since their introduction.  In 2005 and 2006, we introduced two new models, the EV30 and Phoenix 6.0.  These two devices are also approved by the U.S. Department of Transportation as an evidential breath tester for use in regulated transportation industries. These two new models form a family of state-of-the-art evidential workplace devices.  In addition, we sell a comprehensive line of supplies, accessories, services, and training to support customers' alcohol testing programs.  In 2006, Lifeloc also commenced the selective marketing of its proprietary designs and componentry on an OEM basis.  In 2009 we released LifeGuard, a personal breath tester that incorporates the fuel-cell based technology employed in the FC series.  Lifeloc constantly enhances and upgrades its products in order to maintain a competitive advantage in its marketplace.
 
2.   SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements.   The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions. Such estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as well as disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of sales and expense during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
 
Cash and Cash Equivalents.   For purposes of reporting cash flows, we consider all cash and highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.  There were no cash equivalents as of December 31, 2010 and 2009.
 
Fair Value of Financial Instruments.   Our financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, short-term trade receivables and payables, and notes payable.  The carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, short-term receivables and payables, and notes payable approximate their fair value due to their short term maturities.
 
Concentration of Credit Risk.   Financial instruments with significant credit risk include cash and accounts receivable.
 
The amount of cash on deposit with one financial institution exceeded the $250,000 federally insured limit at December 31, 2010 by $510,177.  However, we believe that the financial institution is financially sound and the risk of loss is minimal.
 
We have no significant off-balance sheet concentrations of credit risk such as foreign exchange contracts, options contracts or other foreign hedging arrangements. We maintain the majority of our cash balances with two financial institutions in the form of demand deposits.
 
Accounts receivable are typically unsecured and are derived from transactions with and from entities primarily located in the United States, as we require pre-payment or letters of credit for international orders.  Accordingly, we may be exposed to credit risks generally associated with the alcohol monitoring industry.  Our credit policy calls for payment in accordance with prevailing industry standards, generally 30 days.  We maintain allowances for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from the inability of our customers to make required payments.  A summary of the activity in our allowance for doubtful accounts is as follows:
 
Years Ended December 31

Balance, end of year
  $ 5,900     $ 4,100  
 
 
 
F-7
 
 

 
 
The net accounts receivable balance at December 31, 2010 of  $393,118 included an account from one customer of $106,958 (27%), and no more than 7% from any one other customer. The net accounts receivable balance at December 31, 2009 of $329,701 included no more than 15% from any one customer.
 
Inventories.   Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out basis) or market. We reduce inventory for estimated obsolete or unmarketable inventory equal to the difference between the cost of inventory and the estimated market value based upon assumptions about future demand and market conditions. If actual market conditions are less favorable than those projected by management, additional inventory write-downs may be required.  At December 31, 2010 and 2009, inventory consisted of the following:
 
   
2010
   
2009
 
Raw materials & deposits
  $ 342,101     $ 216,380

Less reserve for obsolescence
    (20,000 )     (20,298 )
Total net inventories
  $ 936,463     $ 767,048  
 
A summary of the activity in our inventory reserve for obsolescence is as follows:

Years Ended December 31
 
2010
   
2009
 
Balance, beginning of year
  $ 20,298     $ 21,747  
Provision for estimated obsolescence
    40,672       22,532  
Write-off of obsolete inventory
    (40,970 )     (23,981 )
Balance, end of year
  $ 20,000     $ 20,298  
 
Property and Equipment. Property and equipment are stated at cost, with depreciation computed over the estimated useful lives of the assets, generally three to five years. We utilize the double-declining method of depreciation for property and equipment due to the expected usage of the property and equipment over time. This method is expected to continue throughout the life of the equipment.  Maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred and major additions, replacements and improvements are capitalized. Depreciation expense for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009 was $63,574 and $63,002 respectively.
 
Long-Lived Assets.   Long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. A long-lived asset is considered impaired when estimated future cash flows related to the asset, undiscounted and without interest, are insufficient to recover the carrying amount of the asset. If deemed impaired, the long-lived asset is reduced to its estimated fair value. Long-lived assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of their carrying amount or estimated fair value less cost to sell.  No impairments were recorded for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009.
 
Technology License.   In 2010 we entered into a technology license agreement with an unrelated third-party manufacturer, pursuant to which we acquired a perpetual-term license to technology that will allow us to manufacture our own fuel cells.  We have made three equal lump-sum payments, based on achievement of milestones related to our establishment of successful production facilities.  The total, $120,000, will be amortized over three years commencing in 2011, using the straight line method.  We are required to make varying royalty payments based on the year in which the units are sold and the number sold.  The agreement may be terminated for cause and other events, including the payment by us after 3 years of an amount equal to 3 times the preceding year’s royalties.
 
Patents.   The costs of applying for patents are capitalized and amortized on a straight-line basis over the lesser of the patent’s economic or legal life (20 years in the United States, except design patents which are 14 years).  Amortization expense for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009 was $3,064 and $1,296 respectively.  Capitalized costs are expensed if patents are not granted.  We review the carrying value of our patents periodically to determine whether the patents have continuing value and such reviews could result in the conclusion that the recorded amounts have been impaired.  A summary of our patents at December 31, 2010 and 2009 is as follows:

Accrued Expenses .  We have accrued various expenses in our December 31 balance sheets, as follows:

Compensation

Lease normalization
    4,130       -  
Total accrued expenses
  $ 263,667     $ 161,216  
 
Product Warranty Reserve .  We provide for the estimated cost of product warranties at the time sales are recognized.  While we engage in extensive product quality programs and processes, including actively monitoring and evaluating the quality of our component suppliers, our warranty obligation is based upon historical experience and will be affected by product failure rates and material usage incurred in correcting a product failure. Should actual product failure rates or material usage costs differ from our estimates, revisions to the estimated warranty liability would be required.  A summary of the activity in our product warranty reserve is as follows:
 
Years Ended December 31
 
2010
   
2009
 
Balance, beginning of year
  $ 12,000     $ 12,000  
Provision for estimated warranty claims
    17,090       14,715  
Claims made
    (14,090 )     (14,715 )
Balance, end of year
  $ 15,000     $ 12,000  
 
Income Taxes.   We account for income taxes under the provisions of Accounting Standards Codification Topic 740, “Accounting for Income Taxes” (“ASC 740”). ASC 740 requires recognition of deferred income tax assets and liabilities for the expected future income tax consequences, based on enacted tax laws, of temporary differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities. ASC 740 also requires recognition of deferred tax assets for the expected future tax effects of all deductible temporary differences, loss carryforwards and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets are then reduced, if deemed necessary, by a valuation allowance for the amount of any tax benefits which, more likely than not based on current circumstances, are not expected to be realized.

We adopted the provisions of ASC 740-10 (previously Financial Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes), on January 1, 2008.  The implementation of this standard had no impact on our financial statements.  As of both the date of adoption, and as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, the unrecognized tax benefit accrual was zero.
 
Revenue Recognition.   Revenue from product sales is recorded when we ship the product and title has passed to the customer, provided that we have evidence of a customer arrangement and can conclude that collection is probable.  The prices at which we sell our products are fixed and determinable at the time we accept a customer's order, and revenue is recognized at the time the order is shipped.  We recognize revenue from sales to stocking distributors when there is no right of return, other than for normal warranty claims, and generally have no ongoing obligations related to product sales, except for normal warranty.
 
Service and extended warranty contracts are booked as sales over their life on a straight-line basis. Supplies are recognized as sales when they are shipped.  Training revenues are recognized at the time the training occurs.  On occasion we arrange for customer financing and leasing through unrelated third parties.  We recognize as revenue a fee from this arrangement at the time of the transaction.  Occasionally, we rent used breathalyzers to customers, and in those cases, we recognize the revenues as they are collected.

Our shipping policy is FOB shipping point.  We recognize revenue from sales to stocking distributors when there is no right of return, other than for normal warranty claims. We have no ongoing obligations related to product sales, except for normal warranty.
 
Deferred Revenue.   Deferred revenues only arise from service contracts and from extended warranty contracts.  Those revenues are recognized on a straight-line basis over the life of the contract, which generally are written for one year.  However, there are occasions when they are written for two and sometimes three years.  In those cases, the revenues from that portion of the contract that extend beyond one year are shown in our balance sheet as long term.
 
Distributor Agreements.   The material provisions of our standard distribution agreement are as follows: The distributor agrees to represent Lifeloc to the exclusion of directly competitive products unless Lifeloc has been notified and expressly agreed to such representation of competitive products. To effect this representation, the distributor agrees to (i) use its best efforts to professionally promote, market, and sell all Lifeloc’s evidential models; (ii) maintain mutually acceptable sales volume reasonably representative of market potential; (iii) qualify for and act as a trainer or instructor for Lifeloc products; (iv) consult with Lifeloc for technical and marketing information as necessary; (v) participate in an annual distributor training and certification renewal meeting and otherwise stay informed of Lifeloc’s products, policies, and applicable alcohol testing regulations and practices; (vi) purchase and maintain current demonstration units for sales and training purposes, which shall consist of one of each model for each sales or training individual on staff; (vii) to the maximum extent possible, ensure end-users are registered for warranty on all Portable Breath Testers sold, and, for purposes of product traceability, maintain serial number records of units sold, and provide to Lifeloc upon request; (viii) actively pursue all equipment and training leads that Lifeloc provides, and work actively and cooperatively with Lifeloc to close sales and conduct training regardless of whether the sale is initiated or consummated by the distributor or Lifeloc; (ix) take responsibility for conducting in-person equipment demonstration and on-site training within its designated service area; and (x) at all times maintain the confidentiality of the company’s proprietary information and integrity of its trademarks and abide by specific quality and use guidelines for trademarks.  Lifeloc agrees to (i) support the sales efforts of the distributor by providing timely shipments, technical advice, training, and communications regarding pricing, product, sales programs, and deliveries; (ii) maintain an active training and certification program designed by Lifeloc for its products; (iii) make available information and materials Lifeloc deems useful for the promotion of its products; (iv) provide warranty and service support for equipment sold; (v) provide timely advance notice of any price increase or product line changes; and (vi) maintain an active lead generation program.  The term of the standard distribution agreement is one year, but can be terminated by either party with or without cause, upon thirty days’ written notice.
 
Rebates.   Our rebate program is available to all distributors in good standing who are responsible for sales equaling at least $25,000 in one calendar year.  All distributors who meet the required sales threshold automatically earn a rebate, paid in January of the following year, equal to between 3 and 10 percent of that distributor’s total sales of the Company’s products.  We accrue for these rebates monthly, and they are shown in the Company’s balance sheets as accrued expenses.
 
Rent Expense .  We recognize rent expense on a straight-line basis over the reasonably assured lease term as defined in ASC Topic 840, Leases (“ASC 840”).  In addition, our building lease agreement provides for scheduled rent increases during the lease term.  We include any rent escalations in its determination of straight-line rent expense.
 
Research and Development Expenses .  We expense research and development costs for products and processes as incurred.
 
Stock-Based Compensation .  Stock-based compensation is presented in accordance with the guidance of ASC Topic 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation (“ASC 718”).  Under the provisions of ASC 718, companies are required to estimate the fair value of share-based payment awards on the date of grant using an option-pricing model.  The value of the portion of the award that is ultimately expected to vest is recognized as expense over the requisite service periods in our statement of income.

ASC 718 requires companies to estimate the fair value of share-based payment awards on the date of grant using an option-pricing model.  The value of the portion of the award that is ultimately expected to vest is recognized as expense over the requisite service periods in the accompanying statement of income.

Stock-based compensation expense recognized during the period is based on the value of the portion of share-based payment awards that is ultimately expected to vest during the period.
 
We had no stock based compensation in 2010 and 2009.
 
Segment Reporting.   We have concluded that we have one operating segment.
 

F-10
 
 

 
 
Basic and Diluted Income and Loss per Common Share.   Net income or loss per share is calculated in accordance with ASC Topic 260, Earnings Per Share.  Under the provisions of ASC Topic 260, basic net income or loss per common share is computed by dividing net income or loss for the period by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period.  Diluted net income or loss per share is computed by dividing the net income or loss for the period by the weighted average number of common and potential common shares outstanding during the period if the effect of the potential common shares is dilutive.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements.   In May 2009, the FASB issued ASC 855-10, Subsequent Events.  ASC 855-10 provides guidance on management’s assessment of subsequent events and incorporates this guidance into accounting literature.  ASC 855-10 is effective prospectively for interim and annual periods ending after June 15, 2009.  The adoption of this Statement did not have an impact on our financial position or results of operations.  Effective February 24, 2010, the FASB modified its guidance related to subsequent events and the Company has adopted the change.  This guidance continues to require entities that file or furnish financial statements with the SEC to evaluate subsequent events through the date the financial statements are issued; however, this guidance removed the requirement for these entities to disclose the date through which events have been evaluated.  The adoption of this guidance did not have an effect on the results of operations or financial position of the Company.

We have reviewed all recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting pronouncements and do not believe the future adoption of any such pronouncements may be expected to cause a material impact on our financial condition or the results of our operations.
 
3.   STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY
 
Stock Option Plan.   We adopted our 2002 Stock Option Plan (the “Plan,” as summarized below) to promote our and our stockholders’ interests by helping us to attract, retain and motivate our key employees and associates. Under the terms of the Plan, the Board of Directors may grant either “nonqualified” or “incentive” stock options, as defined by the Internal Revenue Code and related regulations. The purchase price of the shares subject to a stock option will be the fair market value of our common stock on the date the stock option is granted.  Generally, vesting of stock options occurs immediately at the time of the grant of such option and all stock options must be exercised within five years from the date granted. The number of common shares reserved for issuance under the Plan is 375,000 shares of common stock, subject to adjustment for dividend, stock split or other relevant changes in our capitalization.
 
A summary of our stock option activity and related information for each of the fiscal years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009 is as follows:

Of the 104,000 options exercisable as of December 31, 2009, 15,000 are nonqualified stock options and 89,000 are incentive stock options. The exercise price of all options granted through December 31, 2009 has been equal to or greater than the fair market value, using a composite of peer entities since there were no publicly quoted market values of our common stock on the date of the grant.  As of December 31, 2010, options for 44,000 shares of our common stock remain available for grant under the Plan.

At their annual meeting on May 3, 2010, our stockholders approved a reverse stock split of our no par value common stock.  Every two shares of common stock were combined into one share.  No fractional shares were issued as a result of the reverse stock split.  Instead, each resulting fractional share of common stock was rounded to the nearest whole share.  The reverse stock split reduced the number of shares of common stock outstanding from 4,636,832 to 2,318,416 (which does not give effect to the options exercised on May 1, 2010 as described above).  The total number of authorized shares of common stock continues to be 50,000,000, with no change in the par value per share of $0.  All shares and per share data in the accompanying financial statements reflect the effects of the 1-for-2 reverse stock split that became effective on May 3, 2010.
 
The stockholders also approved a warrant distribution consisting of 1 warrant for each then outstanding share of common stock, or a total of 2,422,416 warrants.  However, the distribution was subject to  final approval by the board of directors, based on the board's evaluation of the regulatory hurdles involved and the likelihood of successful registration of the warrants and underlying shares of common stock.  As a result of subsequent filings of a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission, the board determined that the regulatory challenges involving these warrants were excessively burdensome and  the warrant distribution was canceled.
 
4.   NOTES PAYABLE, RELATED PARTY
 
Notes payable as of December 31, 2009 consist of an unsecured demand note payable to a shareholder with a principal balance of $8,000, and interest accrued thereon at a rate of 10% per annum with a total balance due of $12,233 at December 31, 2009.  The principal balance has been outstanding since 1987 and efforts to locate heirs of the Estate have not been successful.  Based on discussions with legal counsel, the note and accrued interest were contributed as capital to the Company as of January 1, 2010.

5.   COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
 
We currently lease our facilities in Wheat Ridge, Colorado under a lease agreement containing cancellation terms of 180 days written notice on or after April 15, 2015 and upon remittance of any unamortized tenant improvements made by the landlord in excess of $16,000.  The minimum future lease payments by year are as follows:

    2014
    111,681  
    2015
     37,592  
                  Total   $ 465,175  
 
Rent expense for our facilities for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009 was $103,544 and $96,039 respectively.
 
Our obligation with respect to employee severance benefits is minimized by the “at will” nature of the employee relationships.  As of December 31, 2010 we had no obligation with respect to contingent severance benefit obligations.
 
Aside from the operating lease and credit facility commitments, we do not have any material contractual commitments requiring settlement in the future.
 
We are subject to regulation by the United States Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) so far as our LifeGuard product is concerned.  The FDA provides regulations governing the manufacture and sale of our LifeGuard product, and we are subject to inspections by the FDA to determine our compliance with these regulations.  FDA inspections are conducted periodically at the discretion of the FDA.  As of December 31, 2010, we had not been inspected by the FDA; however, we believe we are in substantial compliance with all known regulations.
 
We are also subject to regulation by the United States Department of Transportation and by various state departments of transportation so far as our other products are concerned.  We believe that we are in substantial compliance with all known regulations.

6.   LINE OF CREDIT
 
On May 11, 2004, we entered into a credit facility agreement with Citywide Bank.  The terms of the credit facility, which matures on May 11, 2011 include a line of credit for $150,000 at an interest rate calculated at the prime rate plus 1%, or 4.25% at December 31, 2010 and 2009.  Our borrowing under the credit facility is limited to the amount of eligible receivables and inventory at the time of borrowing.  At December 31, 2010 and 2009, we had not borrowed funds from the credit facility and, under our eligible receivables and inventory limit, had $150,000 available to borrow.  The credit facility requires us to meet certain financial covenants, which we met as of December 31, 2010.  The credit facility is secured by cash and deposit accounts, accounts receivable, equipment, inventory and general intangibles.
 
7 .   INCOME TAXES
 
We account for income taxes under ASC 740, which requires the use of the liability method.  ASC 740 provides that deferred tax assets and liabilities are recorded based on the differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts for financial reporting purposes, referred to as temporary differences.  Deferred tax assets and liabilities at the end of each period are determined using the currently enacted tax rates applied to taxable income in the periods in which the deferred tax assets and liabilities are expected to be settled or realized.

Our income tax provision is summarized below:

Total deferred

Total
  $ 211,396     $ 86,074  

During 2010 and 2009, we used our tax loss carryforwards as well as tax credits to reduce our taxable income.  As a result, the provisions for income taxes reflected in the accompanying statements of income for 2010 and 2009 are $211,396 and $86,074 respectively.  We do not have any remaining tax loss carryforwards or tax credits for use in future years; however, we had $3,501 of tax credit carryovers available for use in 2010.

We will recognize future accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in income tax expense if incurred.  Our income tax returns are no longer subject to Federal tax examinations by tax authorities for years before 2007 and state examinations for years before 2006.

The items accounting for the difference between income taxes computed at the federal statutory rate and the provision for income taxes consists of the following:

8.   LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
 
We are not involved in any legal proceeding as of the date of these financial statements.  We may become involved in litigation in the future in the normal course of business.
 
9.   MAJOR CUSTOMERS/SUPPLIERS
 
We depend on sales that are generated from our customers’ ongoing usage of alcohol monitoring instruments.    Except for one customer who contributed 16% ($987,635) to our total sales in 2010, no other customer contributed more than 6% ($371,446).  One customer contributed 10.4% to our total sales in 2009 ($445,617).  In making this determination, we considered the federal government, state governments, local governments, and foreign governments each as a single customer.  In 2010, we depended upon two vendors for approximately 20% of our purchases (21% in 2009).
 
10.   DEFINED CONTRIBUTION EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLAN
 
We have adopted a 401(k) Profit Sharing Plan which covers all full-time employees who have completed 3 months of full-time continuous service and are age eighteen or older. Participants may defer up to 100% of their gross pay up to Plan limits.  Participants are immediately vested in their contributions.  We may make discretionary contributions based on corporate financial results for the year, which was determined to be 3% of the total payroll of the participating employees in 2010 and 2009.  In 2010 and 2009 we contributed $21,158 and $19,534 respectively.  The participants vest in Company contributions based on years of service, with a participant fully vested after six years of credited service.
 
11.   SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
 
Except for the disclosure that follows, we evaluated subsequent events through the date the financial statements were issued.
 
On March 8, 2011, our Board of Directors approved the execution of a letter of intent which provides for a $125,000 loan to Tipping Point, Inc., a company to be formed for the purpose of selling breathalyzer tests at the retail level.

5.   Voting List : At least ten days before each meeting of shareholders, the secretary of the corporation shall make a complete list of the shareholders entitled to vote at such meeting, or any adjournment of such meeting, which list shall be arranged in alphabetical order and shall contain the address of and number of shares held by each shareholder. This list shall be kept on file at the principal office of the corporation for a period of ten days prior to such meeting, shall be produced and kept open at the meeting, and shall be subject to inspection by any shareholder during usual business hours of the corporation and during the whole time of the meeting.

ARTICLE VI. - Indemnification
 
1.      To the fullest extent permitted or provided by the Colorado Business Corporation Act, as amended from time to time, the corporation shall indemnify any person against all liability and expense incurred by reason of the fact that he is or was a director or officer of the corporation or, while serving as a director or officer of the corporation, he is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, partner, or trustee of, or in any similar managerial or fiduciary position of, or as an employee or agent of, another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, association, or other entity. In addition to the foregoing obligation of indemnification, and with a view to giving the person covered by these provisions the broadest possible indemnity, the corporation shall also indemnify persons as provided in the succeeding paragraphs of this Article VI.

2.   The corporation shall indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending, or completed action, suit, or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative, or investigative (other than an action by or in the right of the corporation), by reason of the fact that he is or was a director or officer of the corporation or, while serving as a director or officer of the corporation, he is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, partner, or trustee of, or in any similar managerial or fiduciary position of, or as an employee or agent of, another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, association, or other entity, against expenses (including attorneys' fees), judgments, fines, and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with such action, suit, or proceeding if he acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful. The termination of any action, suit, or proceeding by judgment, order, settlement, or conviction or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent shall not of itself create a presumption that the person did not act in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had reasonable cause to believe that his conduct was unlawful.
 
3.   The corporation shall indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending, or completed action or suit by or in the right of the corporation to procure a judgment in its favor by reason of the fact that he is or was a director or officer of the corporation or, while serving as a director or officer of the corporation, he is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, partner, or trustee of, or in any similar managerial or fiduciary position of, or as an employee or agent of, another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, association or other entity against expenses (including attorneys' fees) actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with the defense or settlement of such action or suit if he acted in good faith in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation; but no such indemnification shall be made in respect of any claim, issue, or matter as to which such person has been adjudged to be liable for negligence or misconduct in the performance of his duty to the corporation unless, and then only to the extent that, the court in which such action or suit was brought determines upon application that, despite the adjudication of liability, but in view of all circumstances of the case, such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnification for such expenses that such court deems proper.
 
4.   To the extent that a person entitled to indemnity under paragraph 2 or 3 of this Article VI has been successful on the merits in defense of any action, suit, or proceeding referred to in paragraph 2 or 3 of this Article VI or in defense of any claim, issue, or matter therein, he shall be indemnified against expenses (including attorneys' fees) actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection therewith.
 
5.   Any indemnification under paragraph 2 or 3 of this Article VI (unless ordered by a court) shall be made by the corporation only as authorized in the specific case upon a determination that indemnification of the person seeking indemnification is proper in the circumstances because he has met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in paragraph 2 or 3. Such determination shall be made by the board of directors by a majority vote of a quorum consisting of directors who were not parties to such action, suit, or proceeding, or, if such a quorum is not obtainable or even if obtainable a quorum of disinterested directors so directs, by independent legal counsel in a written opinion, or by the shareholders.
 
6.   Expenses (including attorneys' fees) incurred in defending a civil or criminal action, suit, or proceeding may be paid by the corporation in advance of the final disposition of such action, suit, or proceeding as authorized in paragraph 5 of this Article VI upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of the person seeking the advance to repay such amount unless it is ultimately determined that he is entitled to be indemnified by the corporation against such expenses pursuant to this Article VI.
 
7.   The indemnification provided by this Article VI shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which those indemnified may be entitled under these articles of incorporation, any bylaw, agreement, vote of shareholders or disinterested directors, or otherwise, and any procedure provided for by any of the foregoing, both as to action in his official capacity and as to action in another capacity while holding such office, and shall continue as to a person who has ceased to be in the position that entitled him to such indemnification and shall inure to the benefit of heirs, executors, and administrators of such a person. The provisions of this Article VI shall not be deemed to preclude the corporation from indemnifying other persons from similar or other expenses and liabilities as the board of directors or the shareholders may determine in a specific instance or by resolution of general application.

     8.      The corporation may purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any person who is or was a director, officer, employee, fiduciary, or agent of the corporation or who is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, partner, or trustee, or in any similar managerial or fiduciary position, or as an employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, or other entity, or any other person against any liability asserted against him and incurred by him in any such capacity or arising out of his status as such, whether or not he would be entitled to indemnification under the provisions of this Article VI.

     3.   Transfers of Stock : Transfers of shares shall be made on the books of the corporation only upon presentation of the certificate or certificates representing such shares properly endorsed by the person or persons appearing upon the face of such certificate to be the owner, or accompanied by a proper transfer or assignment separate from the certificate, except as may otherwise be expressly provided by the statutes of the State of Colorado or by order of a court of competent jurisdiction. The officers or transfer agents of the corporation may, in their discretion, require a signature guaranty before making any transfer. The corporation shall be entitled to treat the person in whose name any shares of stock are registered on its books as the owner of those shares for all purposes, and shall not be bound to recognize any equitable or other claim or interest in the shares on the part of any other person, whether or not the corporation shall have notice of such claim or interest.

LIFELOC TECHNOLOGIES, INC.
STOCK OPTION PLAN
 
 
I. 
Purpose

The LIFELOC TECHNOLOGIES, INC. Stock Option Plan (the "Plan") provides for the grant of Stock Options, Stock Appreciation Rights and Supplemental Bonuses to Employees of Lifeloc Technologies, Inc. (the "Company"), and such of its subsidiaries (as defined in Section 424(f) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code")) as the Board of Directors of the Company (the "Board") shall from time to time designate ("Participating Subsidiaries"), in order to advance the interests of the Company and its Participating Subsidiaries through the motivation, attraction and retention of their respective Employees.

II. 
Incentive Stock Options and Non-Incentive Stock Options

The Stock Options granted under the Plan may be either:

(a)  Incentive Stock Options ("ISOs") which are intended to be "Incentive Stock Options" as that term is defined in Section 422 of the Code; or

(b)  Nonstatutory Stock Options ("NSOs") which are intended to be options that do not qualify as "Incentive Stock Options" under Section 422 of the Code.

All Stock Options shall be ISOs unless the Option Agreement clearly designates the Stock Options granted thereunder, or a specified portion thereof, as NSOs.  Subject to the other provisions of the Plan, a Participant may receive ISOs and NSOs at the same time, provided that the ISOs and NSOs are clearly designated as such.

Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all of the provisions and requirements of the Plan relating to Stock Options shall apply to ISOs and NSOs.

III. 
Administration

3.1   Committee .  With respect to grants of Stock Options, Stock Appreciation Rights and Supplemental Bonuses to Employees other than officers and directors of the Company, the Plan shall be administered by a committee ("Committee") composed of at least two members of the Board of Directors.  With respect to grants of Stock Options, Stock Appreciation Rights and Supplemental Bonuses to officers and directors, the Plan shall be administered by the Board of Directors, if each director is a Disinterested Person, or by a committee of two or more directors, all of whom are Disinterested Persons.  Such committee may be the Committee if all of the members thereof are Disinterested Persons, or a special committee appointed by the Board of Directors composed of at least two Disinterested Persons.  The Committee or the Board, as the case may be, shall have full authority to administer the Plan, including authority to interpret and construe any provision of the Plan and any Stock Option, Stock Appreciation Right or Supplemental Bonus granted thereunder, and to adopt such rules and regulations for administering the Plan as it may deem necessary in order to comply with the requirements of the Code, in order that Stock Options that are intended to be ISOs will be classified as incentive stock options under the Code, or in order to conform to any regulation or to any change in any law or regulation applicable thereto.  The Committee or the Board may delegate any of its responsibilities under the Plan, other than its responsibility to grant Stock Options, to determine whether the Stock Appreciation Rights or Supplemental Bonuses, if any, payable to a Participant shall be paid in cash, in shares of Common Stock or a combination thereof, or to interpret and construe the Plan.  If the Board of Directors is composed entirely of Disinterested Persons, the Board of Directors may reserve to itself any of the authority granted to the Committee as set forth herein, and it may perform and discharge all of the functions and responsibilities of the Committee at any time that a duly constituted Committee is not appointed and serving.  All references in the Plan to the "Committee" shall be deemed to refer to the Board of Directors whenever the Board is discharging the powers and responsibilities of the Committee, and to any special committee appointed by the Board to administer particular aspects of the Plan.

3.2   Actions of the Committee .  All actions taken and all interpretations and determinations made by the Committee in good faith (including determinations of Fair Market Value) shall be final and binding upon all Participants, the Company and all other interested persons.  No member of the Committee shall be personally liable for any action, determination or interpretation made in good faith with respect to the Plan, and all members of the Committee shall, in addition to their rights as directors, be fully protected by the Company with respect to any such action, determination or interpretation.

Eligibility and Participation

Grants of Stock Options, Stock Appreciation Rights and Supplemental Bonuses may be made to Employees of the Company or any Participating Subsidiary, including directors of the Company who are also Employees, but directors who are not Employees shall not be eligible to receive Stock Options, Stock Appreciation Rights or Supplemental Bonuses under the Plan.  The Committee shall from time to time determine the Employees to whom Stock Options shall be granted, the number of shares of Common Stock subject to each Stock Option to be granted to each such Employee, the Option Price of such Stock Options and other terms and provisions of such Stock Options, all as provided in the Plan.  The Option Price of any ISO shall be not less than the Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock on the date on which the Stock Option is granted, but the Option Price of an NSO may be less than the Fair Market Value on the date the NSO is granted if the Committee so determines.  If an ISO is granted to an Employee who then owns stock possessing more than 10% of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock of the Company or any parent or subsidiary corporation of the Company, the Option Price of such ISO shall be at least 110% of the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock subject to the ISO at the time such ISO is granted, and such ISO shall not be exercisable after five years after the date on which it was granted.  Each Stock Option shall be evidenced by a written agreement ("Option Agreement") containing such terms and provisions as the Committee may determine, subject to the provisions of the Plan.

VI. 
Shares of Common Stock Subject to the Plan

6.1   Maximum Number .  The maximum aggregate number of shares of Common Stock that may be made subject to Stock Options shall be 750,000 authorized but unissued shares.  The aggregate Fair Market Value (determined as of the time the ISO is granted) of the Common Stock as to which all ISOs granted to an Employee may first become exercisable in a particular calendar year may not exceed $100,000.  If any shares of Common Stock subject to Stock Options are not purchased or otherwise paid for before such Stock Options expire, such shares may again be made subject to Stock Options.

6.2   Capital Changes .  In the event any changes are made to the shares of Common Stock (whether by reason of merger, consolidation, reorganization, recapitalization, stock dividend in excess of ten percent (10%) at any single time, stock split, combination of shares, exchange of shares, change in corporate structure or otherwise), appropriate adjustments shall be made in:  (i) the number of shares of Common Stock theretofore made subject to Stock Options, and in the purchase price of said shares; and (ii) the aggregate number of shares which may be made subject to Stock Options.  If any of the foregoing adjustments shall result in a fractional share, the fraction shall be disregarded, and the Company shall have no obligation to make any cash or other payment with respect to such a fractional share.

VII. 
Exercise of Stock Options

7.1   Time of Exercise .  Subject to the provisions of the Plan, including without limitation Section 7.5, the Committee, in its discretion, shall determine the time when a Stock Option, or a portion of a Stock Option, shall become exercisable, and the time when a Stock Option, or a portion of a Stock Option, shall expire.  Such time or times shall be set forth in the Option Agreement evidencing such Stock Option.  An ISO shall expire, to the extent not exercised, no later than the tenth anniversary of the date on which it was granted, and an NSO shall expire, to the extent not exercised, no later than ten years after the date on which it was granted.  The Committee may accelerate the vesting of any Participant's Stock Option by giving written notice to the Participant.  Upon receipt of such notice, the Participant and the Company shall amend the Option Agreement to reflect the new vesting schedule.  The acceleration of the exercise period of a Stock Option shall not affect the expiration date of that Stock Option.
 

 
 
 

 
7.2   Exchange of Outstanding Stock .  The Committee, in its sole discretion, may permit a Participant to surrender to the Company shares of Common Stock previously acquired by the Participant as part or full payment for the exercise of a Stock Option.  Such surrendered shares shall be valued at their Fair Market Value on the date of exercise.

7.3   Use of Promissory Note; Exercise Loans .  The Committee may, in its sole discretion, impose terms and conditions, including conditions relating to the manner and timing of payments, on the exercise of Stock Options.  Such terms and conditions may include, but are not limited to, permitting a Participant to deliver to the Company his promissory note as full or partial payment for the exercise of a Stock Option; provided that, with respect to any promissory note given as payment or partial payment for the exercise of an ISO, all terms of such note shall be determined at the time a Stock Option is granted and set forth in the Option Agreement.  The Committee, in its sole discretion, may authorize the Company to make a loan to a Participant in connection with the exercise of Stock Options, or authorize the Company to arrange or guarantee loans to a Participant by a third party.

7.4   Stock Restriction Agreement .  The Committee may provide that shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of a Stock Option shall, under certain conditions, be subject to restrictions whereby the Company has a right of first refusal with respect to such shares or a right or obligation to repurchase all or a portion of such shares, which restrictions may survive a Participant's term of employment with the Company.  The acceleration of time or times at which a Stock Option becomes exercisable may be conditioned upon the Participant's agreement to such restrictions.

7.5   Termination of Employment Before Exercise .  If a Participant's employment with the Company or a Participating Subsidiary shall terminate for any reason other than the Participant's disability, any Stock Option then held by the Participant, to the extent then exercisable under the applicable Option Agreement(s), shall remain exercisable after the termination of his employment for a period of 30 days (but, in the case of an ISO, in no event beyond ten years from the date of grant of the ISO).  If the Participant's employment is terminated because the Participant is disabled within the meaning of Section 22(e)(3) of the Code, any Stock Option then held by the Participant, to the extent then exercisable under the applicable Option Agreement(s), shall remain exercisable after the termination of his employment for a period of three months (but, in the case of an ISO, in no event beyond ten years from the date of grant of the ISO).  If the Stock Option is not exercised during the applicable period, it shall be deemed to have been forfeited and of no further force or effect.

7.6   Disposition of Forfeited Stock Options .  Any shares of Common Stock subject to Stock Options forfeited by a Participant shall not thereafter be eligible for purchase by the Participant but may be made subject to Stock Options granted to other Participants.

7.7   Grant of Supplemental Bonuses .  The Committee, either at the time of grant or at any time prior to exercise of any Stock Option or Stock Appreciation Right, may provide for a Supplemental Bonus from the Company or Participating Subsidiary in connection with a specified number of shares of Common Stock then purchasable, or which may become purchasable, under a Stock Option, or a specified number of Stock Appreciation Rights which may be or become exercisable.  Such Supplemental Bonus shall be payable upon the exercise of the Stock Option or Stock Appreciation Right with regard to which such Supplemental Bonus was granted.  A Supplemental Bonus shall not exceed the amount necessary to reimburse the Participant for the income tax liability incurred by him upon the exercise of the Stock Option or upon the exercise of such Stock Appreciation Right, calculated using the maximum combined federal and applicable state income tax rates then in effect and taking into account the tax liability arising from the Participant's receipt of the Supplemental Bonus.  The Committee may, in its discretion, elect to pay any part or all of the Supplemental Bonus in:  (i) cash; (ii) shares of Common Stock; or (iii) any combination of cash and shares of Common Stock.  The provisions of Section 8.3 shall apply to the giving of notice, the determination of the number of shares to be delivered, and the time for delivering shares.  In applying Section 8.3, the Supplemental Bonus shall be treated as if it were a Stock Appreciation Right that the Participant exercised on the day the Supplemental Bonus became payable.  Shares of Common Stock issued pursuant to this Section 7.7 shall not be deemed to have been issued upon the exercise of a Stock Option for purposes of the limitations imposed by Section 6.1 of the Plan.

VIII. 
Stock Appreciation Rights

8.1   Grant of Stock Appreciation Rights .  The Committee may, from time to time, grant Stock Appreciation Rights to a Participant with respect to not more than the number of shares of Common Stock which are, or may become, purchasable under any Stock Option held by the Participant.  The Committee may, in its sole discretion, specify the terms and conditions of such rights, including without limitation the time period or time periods during which such rights may be exercised and the date or dates upon which such rights shall expire and become void and unexercisable; provided, however, that in no event shall such rights expire and become void and unexercisable later than the time when the related Stock Option is exercised, expires or terminates.  Each Participant to whom Stock Appreciation Rights are granted shall be given written notice advising him of the grant of such rights and specifying the terms and conditions of the rights, which shall be subject to all the provisions of this Plan.

8.2   Exercise of Stock Appreciation Rights .  Subject to Section 8.3, and in lieu of purchasing shares of Common Stock upon the exercise of a Stock Option held by him, a Participant may elect to exercise the Stock Appreciation Rights, if any, he has been granted and receive payment of the Redemption Value of all, or any portion, of the number of shares of Common Stock subject to such Stock Option with respect to which he has been granted Stock Appreciation Rights; provided, however, that the Stock Appreciation Rights may be exercised only when the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock subject to such Stock Option exceeds the exercise price of the Stock Option.  A Participant shall exercise his Stock Appreciation Rights by delivering a written notice to the Committee specifying the number of shares with respect to which he exercises Stock Appreciation Rights and agreeing to surrender the rights to purchase an equivalent number of shares of Common Stock subject to his Stock Option.  If a Participant exercises Stock Appreciation Rights, payment of his Stock Appreciation Rights shall be made in accordance with Section 8.3 on or before the 90th day after the date of exercise of the Stock Appreciation Rights.
 
 
 

 
 
 

 
8.3   Form of Payment .  If a Participant elects to exercise Stock Appreciation Rights as provided in Section 8.2, the Committee may, in its absolute discretion, elect to pay any part or all of the Redemption Value of the shares with respect to which the Participant has exercised Stock Appreciation Rights in:  (i) cash; (ii) shares of Common Stock; or (iii) any combination of cash and shares of Common Stock.  The Committee's election pursuant to this Section 8.3 shall be made by giving written notice to the Participant within said 90-day period, which notice shall specify the portion which the Committee elects to pay in cash, shares of Common Stock or a combination thereof.  In the event any portion is to be paid in shares of Common Stock, the number of shares to be delivered shall be determined by dividing the amount which the Committee elects to pay in shares of Common Stock by the Fair Market Value of one share of Common Stock on the date of exercise of the Stock Appreciation Rights.  Any fractional share resulting from any such calculation shall be disregarded.  Said shares, together with any cash payable to the Participant, shall be delivered within said 90-day period.

IX. 
No Contract of Employment

Nothing in this Plan shall confer upon the Participant the right to continue in the employ of the Company, or any Participating Subsidiary, nor shall it interfere in any way with the right of the Company, or any such Participating Subsidiary, to discharge the Participant at any time for any reason whatsoever, with or without cause.  Nothing in this Article IX shall affect any rights or obligations of the Company or any Participant under any written contract of employment.

X. 
No Rights as a Stockholder

A Participant shall have no rights as a stockholder with respect to any shares of Common Stock subject to a Stock Option. Except as provided in Section 6.2, no adjustment shall be made in the number of shares of Common Stock issued to a Participant, or in any other rights of the Participant upon exercise of a Stock Option by reason of any dividend, distribution or other right granted to stockholders for which the record date is prior to the date of exercise of the Participant's Stock Option.

XI. 
Assignability

No Stock Option, Stock Appreciation Right or Supplemental Bonus right granted under this Plan, nor any other rights acquired by a Participant under this Plan, shall be assignable or transferable by a Participant, other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution or, in the case of an NSO, pursuant to a qualified domestic relations order as defined by the Code, Title I of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act, or the rules thereunder.  Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, the Committee may, in its sole discretion, permit the assignment or transfer of an NSO by a Participant other than an officer or director, and the exercise thereof by a person other than such Participant, on such terms and conditions as the Committee in its sole discretion may determine.  Any such terms shall be determined at the time the NSO is granted, and shall be set forth in the Option Agreement.  In the event of his death, the Stock Option or any Stock Appreciation Right or Supplemental Bonus right may be exercised by the Personal Representative of the Participant's estate or, if no Personal Representative has been appointed, by the successor or successors in interest determined under the Participant's will or under the applicable laws of descent and distribution.

If the term does not commence on the first day of a month, Base Rent shall be prorated and paid on the date of such commencement.

Section 16. 2
 
If an Event of Default occurs, then Landlord may either:
     
   (6)
Give Tenant written notice of Landlord's intention to terminate Tenant's right of possession under this Lease, in which event Landlord may proceed to recover possession of the Premises by any lawful means. The obligation of Tenant to pay and the right of Landlord to recover all Rent, including accrued rent and all future rent and other charges owed for what would have been the remaining the term of the Lease, together with the costs of collection, including attorneys' fees, shall survive termination of Tenant's right of possession.
     
   (b)
Unless required by law, without further notice, reenter and take possession of the Premises, or any part thereof, and repossess the same as landlord's former estate, and expel Tenant and those claiming through or under Tenant and remove the effects of either or both without being deemed guilty of any manner of trespass, without being deemed to have elected to terminate this Lease, and without prejudice to any remedies for arrears of Rent and preceding breaches of covenants. After reentering and repossessing the Premises without terminating this Lease, Landlord may, from time to time, without terminating this Lease, relet the Premises or any part thereof on behalf of Tenant for such term or terms and at such rent or rents, and upon such other terms and conditions as Landlord may deem advisable in its sole discretion (including concessions, free rent and payment of commissions), with the right to make alterations and repairs to the Premises.
     
In the event Landlord does not elect to terminate this Lease, but on the contrary elects to take possession, then such repossession shall not relieve tenant of its obligations and liability under this Lease, all of which shall survive such repossession. In the event of such repossession, Tenant shall pay Landlord as Rent all Rent which would be payable hereunder if such repossession had not occurred, less the net proceed, if any, of any reletting of the Premises after deducting all of Landlord's expenses in connection with reletting, including, but not limited to, all repossession costs, brokerage commissions, legal expenses, expenses of

In the event this Lease is terminated, Tenant shall in all events remain liable to Landlord for damages in an amount equal to the Rent and other sums which would have been owing by Tenant hereunder for the balance of the Term had this Lease not been terminated, plus all amounts incurred by Landlord in order to obtain possession of the Premises and relet the same, including attorney's fees, reletting expenses, alterations and repair costs, brokerage commissions, and all other like amounts. Landlord shall be entitled to collect such damages from Tenant monthly on the days on which the Rent and other amounts would have been payable hereunder if this Lease had not been terminated, and Landlord shall be entitled to receive the same from Tenant on each such day. Alternatively, at the option of Landlord, in the event this Lease is terminated, Landlord shall be entitled to recover forthwith against Tenant in addition to damages owing to Landlord for any period prior to the termination date, as damages for loss of the bargain and not as a penalty, an amount equal to the worth, at the time of award by the court having jurisdiction thereof, of the amount by which the unpaid Rend for the balance of the Term after the time of such award exceeds the amount of such Rental loss for the same period that Tenant proves could be reasonably avoided, plus all amounts incurred by Landlord in order to obtain possession of the Premises and relet the same, including attorneys' fees, reletting expenses, alterations and repair costs, brokerage commissions and all other like amounts.
 
All rights and remedies of Landlord under this Lease shall be cumulative and shall not be exclusive of any other rights and remedies provided to Landlord under applicable law.

1.0716 Environmental Requirements
Energy Efficiency Purchasing Policy - The State shall seek wherever possible to purchase energy efficient products. This may include giving preference to U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) certified 'Energy Star' products for any category of products for which EPA has established Energy Star certification. For other purchases, the State may include energy efficiency as one of the priority factors to consider when choosing among comparable bids.
 
Environmental Purchasing Policy - The State of Michigan has committed to encourage the use of products and services that impact the environment less than competing products. This can be best accomplished by including environmental considerations in purchasing decisions, while remaining fiscally responsible, to promote practices that improve worker health, conserve natural resources, and prevent pollution. Environmental components that may be considered in Best Value Purchasing evaluation include: recycled content and recyclability; energy efficiency; and the presence of undesirable materials in the products, especially those toxic chemicals which are persistent and bio-accumulative. Bidders able to supply products containing recycled and environmentally preferable materials that meet performance requirements are encouraged to offer them in bids and proposals. Information on any relevant third party certification (such as Green Seal, Energy Star, etc.) should also be provided.
 
I. Recycled Content and Recyclability
 
A. Recycled Packaging. Bidders may offer some or all of the following items listed below or provide alternative proposal as to how packaging materials can be reduced, eliminated or otherwise made more environmentally preferable. It is desirable that Bidders offer packaging which:
 
a.
is made from recycled content which meets or exceeds all federal and state recycled content guidelines
 
(currently 35% post-consumer for all corrugated cardboard)
 
b.
minimizes or eliminates the use of polystyrene or other difficult to recycle materials
 
c.
minimizes or eliminates the use packaging and containers and, in the alternative, minimizes or
 
eliminates the use of non-recyclable packaging and containers
 
d.
provides for a return program where packaging can be returned to a specific location for recycling
 
e.
contains materials which are easily recyclable in Michigan.
 
All Bidders are requested to indicate below an estimate of the percentage of recycled materials, if any, contained in each item bid. Higher percentages of recycled materials are preferred. Product performance is paramount, whether containing recycled material or not; however, preference will be given to products that perform up to specification and are environmentally preferable without compromising quality.

Data shall be submitted in accordance with Section 312 of the federal Emergency Planning and Community Right-to-Know Act, whether or not the apparently successful bidder is the actual manufacturer of these items. Failure to submit the Material Safety Data Sheet prior to award may result in the apparently successful bidder being considered non-responsive and ineligible for award.
 
B.     Mercury Content. It is the clear intent of state agencies to avoid purchasing products that contain intentionally-added mercury whenever possible. Bidders shall offer mercury-free product alternatives whenever available. Should mercury-free alternatives not exist, as presently is the case with a few select products and devices such as fluorescent lamps or where the alternative is not yet cost competitive, such as dental amalgam, bidders shall offer the lowest mercury content available for a given application. Bidders shall disclose whenever products contain added-mercury by using the following format.
 
o Product contains added-Mercury (attach an explanation that includes: the amount or concentration of mercury and justification as to why this particular product is essential).
 
In addition, the Bidder shall also ensure that all products to be purchased containing intentionally added-mercury shall be labeled as: "product contains mercury/recycle or dispose of properly." For instances where space constraints limit the amount or size of print, the chemical symbol "Hg" followed by a picture of a trash container with a diagonal line through it shall suffice for labeling requirements. BIDDERS PLEASE NOTE: Michigan Law Prohibits the sale of mercury-containing thermostats, thermometers, sphygmomanometers (blood pressure monitors) and other types of medical devices.

In addition, should the equipment, software, commodity, or service, or its operation, become or in the State's or Contractor's opinion be likely to become the subject of a claim of infringement, the Contractor must at the Contractor's sole expense (i) procure for the State the right to continue using the equipment, software, commodity or service or, if the option is not reasonably available to the Contractor, (ii) replace or modify to the State's satisfaction the same with equipment, software, commodity or service of equivalent function and performance so that it becomes non-infringing, or, if the option is not reasonably available to Contractor, (iii) accept its return by the State with appropriate credits to the State against the Contractor's charges and reimburse the State for any losses or costs incurred as a consequence of the State ceasing its use and returning it.

Within 10 days following receipt of written notice from the State relating to any claim, the Contractor must notify the State in writing whether Contractor agrees to assume control of the defense and settlement of that claim (a "Notice of Election"). After notifying Contractor of a claim and before the State receiving Contractor's Notice of Election, the State is entitled to defend against the claim, at the Contractor's expense, and the Contractor will be responsible for any reasonable costs incurred by the State in defending against the claim during that period.

(b)           If Contractor delivers a Notice of Election relating to any claim: (i) the State is entitled to participate in the defense of the claim and to employ counsel at its own expense to assist in the handling of the claim and to monitor and advise the State about the status and progress of the defense; (ii) the Contractor must, at the request of the State, demonstrate to the reasonable satisfaction of the State, the Contractor's financial ability to carry out its defense and indemnity obligations under this Contract; (iii) the Contractor must periodically advise the State about the status and progress of the defense and must

2.190   Dispute Resolution

2.191   In General
Any claim, counterclaim, or dispute between the State and Contractor arising out of or relating to the Contract or any Statement of Work must be resolved as follows. For all Contractor claims seeking an increase in the amounts payable to Contractor under the Contract, or the time for Contractor's performance, Contractor must submit a letter, together with all data supporting the claims, executed by Contractor's Contract Administrator or the Contract Administrator's designee certifying that (a) the claim is made in good faith, (b) the amount claimed accurately reflects the adjustments in the amounts payable to Contractor or the time for Contractor's performance for which Contractor believes the State is liable and covers all costs of every type to which Contractor is entitled from the occurrence of the claimed event, and (c) the claim and the supporting data are current and complete to Contractor's best knowledge and belief.

2.192   Informal Dispute Resolution
(a)    All disputes between the parties must be resolved under the Contract Management procedures in this Contract. If the parties are unable to resolve any disputes after compliance with the processes, the parties must meet with the Director of Purchasing Operations, DMB, or designee, for the purpose of attempting to resolve the dispute without the need for formal legal proceedings, as follows:
(i)    The representatives of Contractor and the State must meet as often as the parties reasonably deem necessary to gather and furnish to each other all information with respect to the matter in issue which the parties believe to be appropriate and germane in connection with its resolution. The representatives must discuss the problem and negotiate in good faith in an effort to resolve the dispute without the necessity of any formal proceeding.
(ii)   During the course of negotiations, all reasonable requests made by one party to another for non-privileged information reasonably related to the Contract will be honored in order that each of the parties may be fully advised of the other's position.
(iii)      The specific format for the discussions will be left to the discretion of the designated State and Contractor representatives, but may include the preparation of agreed upon statements of fact or written statements of position.
(iv)      Following the completion of this process within 60 calendar days, the Director of Purchasing Operations, DMB, or designee, must issue a written opinion regarding the issue(s) in dispute within 30 calendar days. The opinion regarding the dispute must be considered the State's final action and the exhaustion of administrative remedies.
(b)   This Section will not be construed to prevent either party from instituting, and a party is authorized to institute, formal proceedings earlier to avoid the expiration of any applicable limitations period, to preserve a superior position with respect to other creditors, or under Section 2,163.
(c)   The State will not mediate disputes between the Contractor and any other entity, except state agencies, concerning responsibility for performance of work under the Contract.

2.193   Injunctive Relief
The only circumstance in which disputes between the State and Contractor will not be subject to the provisions of Section 2.162 is where a party makes a good faith determination that a breach of the terms of the Contract by the other party is the that the damages to the party resulting from the breach will be so immediate, so large or severe and so incapable of adequate redress after the fact that a temporary restraining order or other immediate injunctive relief is the only adequate remedy.

2.194   Continued Performance
Each party agrees to continue performing its obligations under the Contract while a dispute is being resolved except to the extent the issue in dispute precludes performance (dispute over payment must not be deemed to preclude performance) and without limiting either party's right to terminate the Contract as provided in Section 2.150, as the case may be.

Contractor will not be in default for a delay in performance to the extent the delay is caused by the State.

2.242   Service Level Agreements (SLAs—Deleted, Not Applicable)

2.243   Liquidated Damages—Deleted, Not Applicable

2.244   Excusable Failure
Neither party will be liable for any default, damage or delay in the performance of its obligations under the Contract to the extent the default, damage or delay is caused by government regulations or requirements (executive, legislative, judicial, military or otherwise), power failure, electrical surges or current fluctuations, lightning, earthquake, war, water or other forces of nature or acts of God, delays or failures of transportation, equipment shortages, suppliers' failures, or acts or omissions of common carriers, fire; riots, civil disorders; strikes or other labor disputes, embargoes; injunctions (provided the injunction was not issued as a result of any fault or negligence of the party seeking to have its default or delay excused); or any other cause beyond the reasonable control of a party; provided the non-performing party and its Subcontractors are without fault in causing the default or delay, and the default or delay could not have been prevented by reasonable precautions and cannot reasonably be circumvented by the non-performing party through the use of alternate sources, workaround plans or other means, including disaster recovery plans.

If a party does not perform its contractual obligations for any of the reasons listed above, the non-performing party will be excused from any further performance of its affected obligation(s) for as long as the circumstances prevail. But the party must use commercially reasonable efforts to recommence performance whenever and to whatever extent possible without delay. A party must promptly notify the other party in writing immediately after the excusable failure occurs, and also when it abates or ends.

If any of the above-enumerated circumstances substantially prevent, hinder, or delay the Contractor's performance of the Services/provision of Deliverables for more than 10 Business Days, and the State determines that performance is not likely to be resumed within a period of time that is satisfactory to the State in its reasonable discretion, then at the State's option: (a) the State may procure the affected Services/Deliverables from an alternate source, and the State is not be liable for payment for the unperformed Services/ Deliverables not provided under the Contract for so long as the delay in performance continues; (b) the State may terminate any portion of the Contract so affected and the charges payable will be equitably adjusted to reflect those Services/Deliverables terminated; or (c) the State may terminate the affected Statement of Work without liability to Contractor as of a date specified by the State in a written notice of termination to the Contractor, except to the extent that the State must pay for Services/Deliverables provided through the date of termination.

The Contractor will not have the right to any additional payments from the State as a result of any Excusable Failure occurrence or to payments for Services not rendered/Deliverables not provided as a result of the Excusable Failure condition. Defaults or delays in performance by Contractor which are caused by acts or omissions of its Subcontractors will not relieve Contractor of its obligations under the Contract except to the extent that a Subcontractor is itself subject to an Excusable Failure condition described above and Contractor cannot reasonably circumvent the effect of the Subcontractor's default or delay in performance through the use of alternate sources, workaround plans or other means.

Where there is no obvious or suspected damage, all deliveries to a State Location must be opened by the State and the contents inspected for possible internal damage not visible externally within 14 days of receipt. Any damage must be reported to the Contractor within five days of inspection.

2.252   Delivery of Deliverables
Where applicable, the Statements of Work/POs contain lists of the Deliverables to be prepared and delivered by Contractor including, for each Deliverable, the scheduled delivery date and a designation of whether the Deliverable is a document ("Written Deliverable"), a good ("Physical Deliverable") or a Service. All Deliverables must be completed and delivered for State review and written approval and, where applicable, installed according to the State-approved delivery schedule and any other applicable terms and conditions of the Contract.

2.253   Testing
(a)    Before delivering any of the above-mentioned Statement of Work Physical Deliverables or Services to the State, Contractor will first perform all required quality assurance activities to verify that the Physical Deliverable or Service is complete and conforms with its specifications listed in the applicable Statement of Work or Purchase Order. Before delivering a Physical Deliverable or Service to the State, Contractor must certify to the State that (1) it has performed the quality assurance activities, (2) it has performed any applicable testing, (3) it has corrected all material deficiencies discovered during the quality assurance activities and testing, (4) the Deliverable or Service is in a suitable state of readiness for the State's review and approval, and (5) the Deliverable/Service has all Critical Security patches/updates applied.

(b)    The State's obligation to comply with any State Review Period is conditioned on the timely delivery of Deliverables/Services being reviewed.

(c)    Before commencement of its review or testing of a Deliverable/Service, the State may inspect the Deliverable/Service to confirm that all components of the Deliverable/Service have been delivered without material deficiencies. If the State determines that the Deliverable/Service has material deficiencies, the State may refuse delivery of the Deliverable/Service without performing any further inspection or testing of the Deliverable/Service. Otherwise, the review period will be deemed to have started on the day the State receives the Deliverable or the Service begins, and the State and Contractor agree that the Deliverable/Service is ready for use and, where applicable, certification by Contractor according to Section 2.223.

(d)    The State will approve in writing a Deliverable/Service after confirming that it conforms to and performs according to its specifications without material deficiency. The State may, but is not be required to, conditionally approve in writing a Deliverable/Service that contains material deficiencies if the State elects to permit Contractor to rectify them post-approval. In any case, Contractor will be responsible for working diligently to correct within a reasonable time at Contractor's expense all deficiencies in the Deliverable/Service that remain outstanding at the time of State approval.

(e)    If, after three opportunities (the original and two repeat efforts), the Contractor is unable to correct all deficiencies preventing Final Acceptance of a Deliverable/Service, the State may: (i) demand that the Contractor cure the failure and give the Contractor additional time to cure the failure at the sole expense of the Contractor; or (ii) keep the Contract in force and do, either itself or through other parties, whatever the Contractor has failed to do, and recover the difference between the cost to cure the deficiency and the contract price plus an additional sum equal to 10% of the cost to cure the deficiency to cover the State's general expenses provided the State can furnish proof of the general expenses; or (in) terminate the particular Statement of Work for default, either in whole or in part by notice to Contractor provided Contractor is unable to cure the breach. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the State cannot use, as a basis for exercising its termination rights under this Section, deficiencies discovered in a repeat State Review Period that could reasonably have been discovered during a prior State Review Period.

(f)    The State, at any time and in its reasonable discretion, may halt the testing or approval process if the process reveals deficiencies in or problems with a Deliverable/Service in a sufficient quantity or of a sufficient severity that renders continuing the process unproductive or unworkable. If that happens, the State may stop using the Service or return the applicable Deliverable to Contractor for correction and re­delivery before resuming the testing or approval process.

2.255   Process For Approval of Written Deliverables
The State Review Period for Written Deliverables will be the number of days set forth in the applicable Statement of Work following delivery of the final version of the Deliverable (and if the Statement of Work does not state the State Review Period, it is by default five Business Days for Written Deliverables of 100 pages or less and 10 Business Days for Written Deliverables of more than 100 pages). The duration of the State Review Periods will be doubled if the State has not had an opportunity to review an interim draft of the Written Deliverable before its submission to the State. The State agrees to notify Contractor in writing by the end of the State Review Period either stating that the Deliverable is approved in the form delivered by Contractor or describing any deficiencies that must be corrected before approval of the Deliverable (or at the State's election, after approval of the Deliverable). If the State notifies the Contractor about deficiencies, the Contractor will correct the described deficiencies and within 30 Business Days resubmit the Deliverable in a form that shows all revisions made to the original version delivered to the State. Contractor's correction efforts will be made at no additional charge. Upon receipt of a corrected Deliverable from Contractor, the State will have a reasonable additional period of time, not to exceed the length of the original State Review Period, to review the corrected Deliverable to confirm that the identified deficiencies have been corrected.

2.291   Environmental Provision
Energy Efficiency Purchasing Policy - The State seeks wherever possible to purchase energy efficient products. This includes giving preference to U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) certified 'Energy Star' products for any category of products for which EPA has established Energy Star certification. For other purchases, the State may include energy efficiency as one of the priority factors to consider when choosing among comparable products.

Environmental Purchasing Policy - The State of Michigan is committed to encouraging the use of products and services that impact the environment less than competing products. The State is accomplishing this by including environmental considerations in purchasing decisions, while remaining fiscally responsible, to promote practices that improve worker health, conserve natural resources, and prevent pollution. Environmental components that are to be considered include: recycled content and recyclability; energy efficiency; and the presence of undesirable materials in the products, especially those toxic chemicals which are persistent and bioaccumulative. The Contractor should be able to supply products containing recycled and environmentally preferable materials that meet performance requirements and is encouraged to offer such products throughout the duration of this Contract. Information on any relevant third party certification (such as Green Seal, Energy Star, etc.) should also be provided.

The State must proceed to have the Hazardous Material removed or rendered harmless. In the alternative, the State must terminate the affected Work for the State's convenience.

(c)    Once the Hazardous Material has been removed or rendered harmless by the State, the Contractor must resume Work as directed in writing by the State. Any determination by the Michigan Department of Community Health or the Michigan Department of Environmental Quality that the Hazardous Material has either been removed or rendered harmless is binding upon the State and Contractor for the purposes of resuming the Work. If any incident with Hazardous Material results in delay not reasonable anticipatable under the circumstances and which is attributable to the State, the applicable SLAs for the affected Work will not be counted in time as mutually agreed by the parties.

(d)    If the Hazardous Material was brought to the site by the Contractor, or results in whole or in part from any violation by the Contractor of any laws covering the use, handling, storage, disposal of, processing, transport and transfer of Hazardous Material, or from any other act or omission within the control of the Contractor, the Contractor must bear its proportionate share of the delay and costs involved in cleaning up the site and removing and rendering harmless the Hazardous Material according to Applicable Laws to the condition approved by applicable regulatory agency(ies).

assignment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a transferring or assigning party shall provide the other party with not less than ninety (90) days advance written notice of the transfer or assignment, including a Change in Control.

10.2 Right of First Refusal. In the event that FCS receives a bona fide offer for the sale or other transfer (each, a "Transfer") of any or all of the FCS Technology or FCS ownership interests (the "FCS Interests") which FCS intends to accept, FCS shall (i) give written notice to LIFELOC of such offer and of such intention, the name and address of the proposed purchaser ("Offeror"), the terms of the proposed transaction, a copy of any proposed form of letter of intent or contract for the sale, and such other information as LIFELOC may reasonably request ("Offer"), and (ii) shall offer to sell the FCS Interests to LIFELOC on the same terms and conditions as contained in such Offer. The giving of such notice shall constitute a warranty and representation by FCS to LIFELOC that FCS believes the Offer to be bona fide in all respects and that FCS intends to accept it subject to provisions of this Section.
Within ninety (90) days after such receipt of such notice, LIFELOC may elect by notice to FCS to purchase the FCS Interests (the "Election Notice") on the same terms and conditions as are contained in the Offer. In the event LIFELOC so elects to purchase the FCS Interests, on a closing date specified in a written notice given by LIFELOC to FCS, which date shall not be fewer than ten days nor more than sixty days after the date of the Election Notice, FCS shall tender to LIFELOC good and marketable title to the FCS Interests, free and clear of all liens, claims and encumbrances, to be exchanged for the consideration set forth in the Offer.
In the event LIFELOC does not accept the Offer as aforesaid, FCS shall be free to contract to sell and consummate the sale of the FCS Interests to the Offeror within the ninety (90) day period after the expiration of the ninety (90) day period in which LIFELOC could have accepted such Offer, on the same terms and conditions set forth in the Offer. In the event FCS shall not, within such ninety (90) day period, contract to sell and consummate the sale to the Offeror on the same terms and conditions contained in the Offer, then should FCS thereafter elect to sell the FCS Interests, whether on the same or on other terms and conditions, FCS shall be required to again comply with all of the terms and provisions of this Section.
 
 
 
 

 
 
FCS acknowledges and agrees that it will not take any actions, directly or indirectly, that will circumvent the intents and purposes of this Section.
