PART I


ITEM 1—BUSINESS


Our Corporate History and Background


We were incorporated as Tecton Corporation, a Nevada corporation, on January 19, 2006, as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Hemis Corporation.  On December 1, 2006, Hemis declared a dividend of Tecton shares to all shareholders as of that date and concurrently cancelled its share ownership Tecton.  The effect of this dividend declaration and share cancellation was that Tecton was spun off as an independent company.  On January 2, 2014 , we amended our Articles of Incorporation to change our name to “Endurance Exploration Group, Inc.”  As used in this report, the terms “we”, “us”, “our,” “Endurance” and “the Company” mean Endurance Exploration Group, Inc. (formerly Tecton Corporation), unless otherwise indicated.


Prior to June 2008, we were engaged in the exploration and acquisition of uranium properties that were either past producers or had been the subject of prior work programs and/or contained historic resources. On or about June 1, 2008, we ceased/discontinued operations of our uranium exploration activities; and have incurred a net operating loss of approximately $4,900,000 since that period , as we have sought to restructure and find a suitable business opportunity.   We were deemed a “shell company”, as defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, from the discontinuance of operations in 2008 . until the filing of our Form 8-K on December 31, 2013, relating to the acquisition of Endurance Exploration Group, LLC, on that date.  During our restructuring period from June 2008 until December 31, 2013 , we :


·

Elected a new slate of directors and appointed a new management team focused on finding a suitable business opportunity for us;


·

Attempted to reorganize our balance sheet through the US Bankruptcy courts by filing a Chapter 11 bankruptcy petition, but later withdrew our petition at the request of the court;


·

Brought current our filings with the State of Nevada and our financial reporting and disclosure filings with the SEC;


·

Effected a reverse 1 for 40 reverse split of our common stock;



6




·

Amended and restated our Articles of Incorporation to increase the total authorized capital stock to 110,000,000 shares, being comprised of 100,000,000 shares of common stock with a par value of $.01 per share, and 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock with a par value of $.001 , ;




7



·

Paid approximately $ 292 ,000 of outstanding debt through the issuance of 12,733,499 newly issued common shares , on December 31, 2013; and


·

Entered into a Share Exchange Agreement, on December 31, 2013, to acquire the ownership interests of Endurance Exploration Group, LLC. for 20,550,539 shares of common stock .


Our fiscal year end was changed from January 31 to December 31 in November 2013.  Our common stock is quoted on the OTCQB electronic quotation system under the symbol “EXPL”.


Endurance Explorations Group, LLC


On December 31, 2013, we completed the purchase of 100% of the membership interests of Endurance Exploration Group, LLC , (“Endurance LLC”), from its members in exchange for 20,550,539 shares of our common stock , valued at $ 0.0186 per share, based upon the net book value of the assets of Endurance LLC of $ 381,173 as of December 31, 2013.  Micah Eldred, who serves as our Chairman, Chief Executive Officer and President, and Carl Dilley who serves as one of our directors and our Vice President, were the owners of all of the interests in Endurance LLC.  Messrs. Eldred and Dilley were also the beneficial owners of a majority of our common stock at the time.  Endurance LLC is now a wholly owned subsidiary of ours, and its operations are now our primary focus.  


Endurance LLC was formed in 2009 to explore, from an operational and financial perspective, the feasibility and potential economic return of recovering historic and modern day shipwreck cargos. Based on the business started by Endurance LLC, we have developing a research methodology with three goals. The first goal is to establish a comprehensive understanding of the larger economic, technological and social trends that lead to the transport of physical wealth across oceans during different historical periods, along with creating a “High Interest” list of shipwrecks and their cargos lost across various historical periods.  Conflict, accidents and acts of nature claimed a percentage of all voyages, and many of the shipwrecked vessels are believed to have carried a valuable cargo.  The second objective is to identify, from this population of potential shipwreck losses, those shipwrecks that could be legally salvaged and recovered, and the cargos sold, with a positive return on the capital investment required for their location and recovery. The third goal is to move those projects which had the potential to generate positive investment returns into an operational phase with a high, risk-adjusted, chance of success; and, to develop a portfolio of projects in various stages of research, search, survey and recovery.


To that end, we have evaluated historical shipwreck databases holding in excess of 125,000 entries as well as undertaken contextual and keyword library and archival searches. It is important to note that even these massive repositories of data reflect just a small percentage of the 3,000,000+ shipwrecks the United Nations estimates lay on the ocean floor.


From these databases and other searches, we have developed an initial “High Interest” list of approximately 400 shipwrecks. Using criteria including (but not limited to) depth, potential search area, legal concerns, difficulty of excavation and potential value, we further culled the “High Interest” list to approximately two-dozen targets, the “Target List”.     In order for a shipwreck to qualify for our “Target List”, and to potentially move forward as an “Operational Target” (“OT”) -one that we may consider for the search and survey operation phase- the shipwreck must possess the following criteria:



8




·

Known Cargo of Value.  Based upon the historical and archival records, an OT must contain a quantifiable cargo of value.  While the historical records may not provide our researchers with an exact present day value of a potential cargo, we must be able to determine a quantifiable “range” of its estimated value based upon cargo manifests or other archival documents.


·

Known Navigational Data .  Our research must provide information that would allow us to establish a geographically definable search and sinking location and, subsequently, an economically feasible search area for any potential target.  


·

Legal Salvage and Clear Path to Title.  Admiralty law, salvage law, and various sovereign nation’s laws and regulations concerning the search and salvage of historical and modern



9



shipwrecks are complex.  Prior to pursuing an OT, we must be able to establish a clear legal path to the title of any potential recovery, and search and recovery must be made in compliance with international laws and regulations or under specific country permissions.


·

Potential Returns Exceed Risk-Adjusted Cost of Search and Recovery.   Prior to moving a shipwreck from our Target List to an Operational Target, we evaluate a large number of factors to determine the potential search and recovery costs, and the risks associated with such search and recovery.  Items considered include: a targets location and likely depth, its location from the nearest operational port, the complexity and costs of potential search and salvage, legal issues to title, and many other factors; and, we develop an initial search plan and budget for each potential project.  We recognize the high risk, yet potentially high rewards, of our business; and, we realize that we will not be successful finding or salvaging every project we undertake.  Therefore, prior to moving any project onto the “Operational Target” list, we take a risk-adjusted approach to the potential returns that a project can provide; and we determine if, on a risk-adjusted basis, the potential target is economically feasible and appropriate to add to our portfolio of “Operational Targets”.


Projects code-named “ Sailfish ” and “ Black Marlin ” have now reached operational or pre-operational status. For project “ Sailfish ” we have now surveyed over 700 square miles in the Western Atlantic Ocean in search of a sunken passenger liner carrying a substantial cargo of gold coinage. In addition to this manifest cargo, we also expect to find additional valuables among the personal stores of the ship’s passengers. Please refer to Current & Ongoing Projects for additional information.


For project “ Black Marlin ” we have secured a three-year contract with a sovereign island nation in the Indian Ocean for the survey and recovery of a Colonial-era merchant vessel carrying silver. This contract also allows for other potentially valuable “targets of opportunity” within the territorial waters of this nation. Please refer to Current & Ongoing Projects for additional information.


We believe this survey and recovery capability combined with our proprietary research will allow us to conduct approximately two deep-water surveys per yearly weather window, should we have sufficient capital to undertake such operational surveys.

Description of Key Equipment  


In 2011, Endurance LLC began purchasing key equipment for operations. Our equipment purchases have included a 100-foot survey vessel, tethered side-scan sonar units, and light work-class and inspection Remotely Operated Vehicles (ROV), “Shackleton 1” and “Squirt”.


Survey Ship


Our 100-foot survey ship has been recently refurbished to include a sonar winch and the latest in electronics and side-scan sonar survey equipment. Depending on the timeframe, circumstances and our other commitments, we may use this ship or charter another vessel of similar capability.


Sidescan Sonar


Side-scan sonar is currently the industry-standard search methodology used for oceanic operations.  An unmanned side-scan sonar unit, or “towfish,” is towed behind a manned surface vessel at a pre-set altitude above the seafloor. The sonar unit sends out a “ping” or sound-wave to acoustically map terrain, natural obstructions and man-made objects, including shipwrecks and jettison cargo.


To engage in search operations, we have purchased side-scan sonar systems. Our dual-frequency systems may be set for a range of velocities, search widths and resolutions for both area mapping and high-resolution target prosecution up to 2,000 meters in depth. Our system is compatible with third-party hardware and software systems and meets IHO & NOAA survey specifications. Beyond shipwreck surveys, the system is also capable of cable and pipeline surveys, channel conditioning, geophysical surveys, mine countermeasures and search and recovery operations.




11



Our sonar systems are a flexible platform from both a hardware and software standpoint, and may continue to be upgraded with industry-standard, off-the-shelf sensor packages.


The sonar “towfish” of one of our current survey systems was lost during the final days of our 2013 search operations. For more information on project “ Sailfish ”, please refer to Current & Ongoing Projects . We expect to replace this sonar equipment and capability before beginning 2014 search operations.


Potential shipwreck targets found by sonar will be catalogued, evaluated and eventually visually prosecuted using the Shackleton 1 or Squirt ROV systems.


ROV Shackleton 1


The Remotely-Operated Vehicle (ROV) system Shackleton 1 is a light work-class ROV. This system is comprised of underwater lighting, still and motion picture cameras and a single robotic manipulator arm. Initially designed for mid-water industrial applications, the ROV has been redesigned for shipwreck search, identification and cargo recovery operations.  Beyond shipwreck operations, the system is also capable of cable and pipeline inspection and repair, geophysical sampling and search and recovery operations.  ROV system “Shackleton 1” is currently undergoing the final stages of a complete disassembly and overhaul, and we expect to have it ready for the 2014 summer season.


Employees


As of December 31, 2013, we had three employees, all of whom serve full-time.


Other Employees and Contractors


We utilize contract personnel for vessel operation during our survey periods, and intend to continue to use contract technicians to perform marine survey and recovery operations in the future. From time to time, we have or intend to hire other contractors, subcontractors and consultants to perform specific services.  During 2013, three individuals who joined our Board of Directors in January 2014 were employed in various capacities by us as independent contracts.  See “Item 10 – EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION - Compensation Paid to Messrs. Zajonc, Saint Amour and de Montille in 2013” below.

Project Operations


Research


During the Colonial period (1500-1850), the world economy was highly dependent on the physical transportation of bullion coinage, precious metals and high-value non-ferrous metals. A small percentage of shipping during this period was lost to storm, fire, acts of war, natural disasters and other causes, both known and unknown. The administration of this economic system required state-level bureaucratic oversight and record-keeping. Many of these historic records are available in publications, libraries, archives and digitized formats in depositories across the world. Though many records have been lost to time, enough remain to create in-depth, credible project profiles for potential excavation targets.


To that end, have created a series of regional and period-specific databases from which to compare, evaluate and select potential targets for research, discovery and eventual excavation and recovery.


The graphics below are a visual representation of selected world regions containing our “High Interest” database of shipwrecks and their approximate location and time of sinking.

Before search or recovery operations may begin, we seek to understand every factor necessary to mount a recovery operation with a high probability of success.


These factors include, but are not limited to:


·

The historical context of the shipwreck, including political forces, technological developments, important contextual persons and events and the public reaction to the loss.


·

Any images of the shipwreck, including still photography, motion pictures, drawing, paintings, recreations and/or models.



17




·

A complete sinking timeline, including as much information as possible on weather patterns, departure date/time, intended course, course corrections, witness/observer statements. This includes any statement, fact or event material in any way to the sinking.  


·

A proposed search area with a high-probability of success, including an evaluation of all factors listed in the “Sinking Timeline” as well as any territorial boundaries or environmental factors.


·

An Identification Guide, enabling rapid qualification or rejection of potential targets based on sonar and visual imagery, thus limiting expensive ship time on station.


·

Cargo evaluation, evaluating the historical records on the target’s cargo and potential modern-day value.


·

Any encumbering factors, including territorial ownership of waters, insurance claims, potential cargo claims and sovereign rights. We will not begin a project without a legal path to possession.


All of the above information is gleaned from publications, libraries, archives and digitized medium. Development of further projects is a continuous, ongoing process.  



18




Search


Most operational projects begin with a sonar search phase. We have outfitted our vessel with state-of-the-art sonar systems, an industry standard for underwater search operations. Our vessel tows the sonar systems to map the seafloor and search for targets. Potential targets are then selected from the sonar imagery using a combination of computerized post-processing and expert evaluation. While some shipwreck targets may be positively identified using high-resolution sonar system, others may need visual identification using an underwater camera ROV (Remote Operated Vehicle) system or an AUV (Autonomous Underwater Vehicle).


Recovery


Once a target is positively identified, excavation and recovery operations will begin using our “Shackleton 1” light-work class ROV system, or other chartered ROV systems.  Shackleton 1 will document the site using sonar, still and motion-picture imagery. It will then be used for any necessary excavation, as well as coinage, bullion and/or other recovery operations.


Post-Recovery Conservation


Coinage, precious metals and non-ferrous metals typically require a minimum amount of post-recovery conservation. In order to preserve the value of the recovered cargo, we will have an on-site facility capable of properly storing and transporting all recovered coinage, precious metals and non-ferrous metals to definitive and final conservation and storage prior to sale.  


Sales


We intend to recover coinage and bullion precious metals, including but not limited to gold and silver. We believe that bullion metals, numismatically-graded coinage and non-graded coinage have significant value in the collector market. We intend to sell the existing independent coin dealers as well as directly to the collector and consumer market through the internet.

Current & Ongoing Projects


Project “Sailfish”- Research Summary


The “ Sailfish” was a steam-powered packet ship, part of a fast and indispensable transatlantic communication link, the perfect vessel to rapidly ferry mails and passengers between Britain and the United States. Large for her time, she was a side-wheel steamer constructed almost entirely of iron.


On her last voyage, the “ Sailfish” left Great Britain, bound for the United States. She carried several dozen first-class passengers, more than four hundred steerage passengers and a full crew of nearly 130. The “Sailfish” also disembarked with a cargo of gold coins, and the Captain assumed an uneventful voyage


According to reports, when heavy seas set in, the “Sailfish” began to roll heavily. Though the initial problem was temporarily fixed, twelve hours later the same roll started again. Making matters worse, fire broke out. Buckets and pumps were manned, but the water rose rapidly and extinguished the furnaces, rendering the ship immobile. The fire quickly spread, driving the passengers above decks.


The purser and two men attempted to rescue the gold shipment, but were driven back by the smoke and flames. A nearby ship came to the rescue, bravely maneuvering close to the “Sailfish” and running a line between the two to facilitate transfer of passenger. Per age-old protocol, the Captain was the last man off the ship.



20




Virtually nothing was saved. Nearly every trunk and stitch of clothing was lost, including all the money of the first-class passengers. Early the next morning, a passing ship fell in with the “Sailfish”, shadowing the stricken vessel through her final hours. The burning “Sailfish” exploded and sank by the stern, leaving only an overturned lifeboat, light portions of the decking and a few trunks. The passing ship spent an hour recovering debris, dutifully recorded the sinking position, and then sailed on to New York.


We believe the “ Sailfish” lies at a depth of between 200-500 meters of water.


Project “Sailfish” – Current Status


Side-scan sonar survey operations on Project “Sailfish” began in July of 2013, and continued through the summer weather window until September 2013.  Over the course of this initial survey, approximately 700 square miles were digitally mapped. This sonar imagery was then post-processed and evaluated for potential targets.


Additional analysis conducted in early 2014 of the side scan sonar data we collected in 2013, reveals a shipwreck target with a number of characteristics that are consistent with what we believe we would see in a side scan sonar image of, our targeted shipwreck, “Sailfish”.  At this point in time, we cannot confirm whether or not we have located and imaged “Sailfish” with our side scan sonar equipment.  We intend to conduct an ROV inspection in early to mid-year 2014 and verify whether or not the target we have located is, or is not, “SAILFISH”.


Project “Black Marlin”- Research Summary


In the end of the 17th century, the world economy was fueled by the Spanish silver mines of the Americas, and the European demand for Asian drugs, spices, commodities and teas. This trade was based on the exchange of precious metals for goods, and silver was the only European payment acceptable to Asian trading partners.



The “Black Marlin” was one such vessel engaged in this trade. She was an English East Indiaman, more than 700 tons, three decks high and armed with many cannon. In addition to the silver coin expected by Asian merchants, she also carried lace, golden fabric, beaver fur, tobacco, wine, cloth and iron nails.


The shipping routes of the time took the English ship to the Indian Ocean for resupply in the middle of her long voyage to the East.  According to reports, unknown to her Captain and crew, nearby European enemy ships were



21



hunting for English shipping. They discovered the “Black Marlin” was in the area and sailed to intercept. The European enemy ships approached the English ship under a false flag and prepared to attack.


The trap set and ready to attack, the Europeans demanded the surrender of the English vessel. Instead of surrendering, the English captain counterattacked, and the vessels began to exchange heavy cannon fire, beginning a pitched fight that would continue over many hours. In a last-ditch effort to escape, the English ship unfurled her sails and attempted to sail away. The Europeans quickly caught up and soon the English ship was disabled and unable to continue fighting.


Rather than surrender, the Captain of the English ship set his own vessel on fire, escaping in a small boat with a chosen group of men while allowing his own ship and abandoned sailors to burn. The fire reached the gunpowder storage, and the English ship exploded and sank, taking with her a rich cargo of silver.


We believe this shipwreck lies at a depth of between 500-3000 meters of water.



22




Project “Black Marlin” – Current Status


In November 2013, Endurance LLC entered into a contract with the sovereign government of an island nation in the Indian Ocean. The contract provides us with a three-year period in which to operate within the territorial waters of the nation with full permission to survey for and recover the “Black Marlin” and her silver cargo. Net proceeds of our recovery efforts, after payment the costs to transport, store and insure any recovered items, will be split between us (75%) and the island government (25%). We expect to begin initial survey operations on project “Black Marlin” in mid to late-2014.  


As part of a larger economic development package included within our original proposal, we will also seek to develop media and museum products featuring both the treasure of the “Black Marlin” and the natural beauty of the island nation.


Project “Black Marlin” – Targets of Opportunity “Wahoo” and “Dolphin”


As part of discussions pertaining to project “Black Marlin, ” we have learned of two shallow-water “targets of opportunity” within the same territorial waters as the “Black Marlin.” Believed to be English East Indiaman, these wrecks (code-named “Dolphin” and “Wahoo”) remain unidentified at this time. Until these wrecks are identified, it will not be possible to generate any estimate on the potential value, if any. We expect to begin operations on these wrecks in conjunction with the “Black Marlin” in mid-2014.


Patents, trademarks, licenses, franchises and concession


Currently, we neither own nor rely on any patents, trademarks, licenses or franchises.  We have been granted a concession for shipwreck search and recovery in the territorial waters of an East African island nation . by the government of that nation.  The contract provides us with a three-year period in which to operate within the territorial waters of the nation with full permission to survey for and recover the “Black Marlin” and her silver cargo.  Net proceeds of our recovery efforts, after payment the costs to transport, store and insure any recovered items, will be split between us (75%) and the island government (25%).


Competition


There are a number of competing entities engaged in aquatic research, survey, inspection and the various aspects of the shipwreck salvage business. One or more of these competing entities may locate and recover a shipwreck that we intend to locate and recover. In addition, these competing entities may be better capitalized and may have greater resources to devote to their pursuit of shipwreck salvage.




23



Governmental and Environmental Regulation


We are subject to local, state and national taxation. Additionally, our operations are subject to a variety of national, federal, state, local and international laws. In particular, the legal, political, or civil initiatives of countries, international governing bodies and/or other maritime jurisdictions may restrict our operations and prevent or cause us to suspend or abort particular searches or salvage operations .

ITEM 1A.—RISK FACTORS


Risks Related To Our Overall Business Operations


We have a limited operating history with a history of losses and expect losses to continue for the foreseeable future.


We have yet to establish any history of profitable operations. We have not generated any revenues since January 19, 2006 (inception) and do not anticipate that we will generate revenues which will be sufficient to sustain our operations in the near future.  Unless and until we are able to generate revenues we will continue to sustain losses.


There is doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern due to recurring losses from operations and insufficient cash resources to meet our business objectives, all of which means that we may not be able to continue operations.


The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business.  Our consolidated statements of operations for the eleven months ended December 31, 2013 , and for the year ended January 31, 2013 , reflect net losses of $59,113 and $9,368 respectively.  These factors raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time.  


In light of the acquisition of the membership interests of Endurance Exploration Group , LLC on December 31, 2013, we have presented in the notes to the consolidated financial statements combined proforma results of operations for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 as though this acquisition had taken place on January 1, 2012.  These combined proforma financial statements show no revenue for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 and combined net losses for those periods of $885,874 and $319,628 , respectively. We are currently evaluating acquisitions and other business opportunities. Our continuation as a going concern is dependent upon our ability to obtain clients and investment capital from future funding opportunities.  No assurance can be given that we will be successful in these efforts.


Changes in our business strategy or restructuring of our businesses may increase our costs or otherwise affect the profitability of our businesses.


As changes in our business environment occur we may need to adjust our business strategy to meet these changes or we may otherwise find it necessary to restructure our operations or assets. When these changes or events occur, we may incur costs to change our business strategy and may need to write down the value of assets. In any of these events our costs may increase, and we may have significant charges associated with the write-down of assets.


We will continue to experience losses from both pre-operational expenditures as well as planned operations.


We have experienced a net loss in every fiscal year since our inception. Even if we do generate operating income in the future, subsequent developments in our industry, customer base, business or cost structure, or an event such as litigation may cause us to experience operating losses. We may not become profitable in the future.


We are subject to macroeconomic and other factors beyond our control as well as the business, financial, operating and other risks of start-up companies, all of which may adversely affect our financial results and growth.




25




Macroeconomic and other factors beyond our control as well as the business, financial, operating and other risks of a shell company can adversely affect us . These factors include:




26



·

changes and volatility in general economic conditions, including the severity and duration of any downturn in the U.S. and financial markets;


·

war, civil unrest, terrorist activities or threats and heightened travel security measures instituted in response to these events;


·

outbreaks of pandemic or contagious diseases;


·

climate change and resource scarcity, such as water and energy scarcity;


·

natural or man-made disasters, such as earthquakes, tsunamis, tornados, hurricanes, floods, oil spills and nuclear incidents;


·

low consumer confidence, high levels of unemployment and depressed housing prices;


·

domestic and international political and geo-political conditions;


·

changes in taxes and governmental regulations that influence or set wages, prices, interest rates or construction and maintenance procedures and costs;


·

the costs and administrative burdens associated with compliance with applicable laws and regulations;


·

changes in operating costs, including, but not limited to, energy, benefits, insurance and unanticipated costs resulting from force majeure events; and


·

the lack of availability, or increase in the cost, of capital for us.


We may seek to expand through acquisitions of and investments in other businesses or through business alliances. These acquisitions and investment activities may be unsuccessful or divert our management’s attention.


We intend to consider strategic and complementary acquisitions of and investments in other businesses or other assets. Furthermore, we may pursue these opportunities in alliance with existing businesses. In many cases, we will be competing for these opportunities with third parties that may have substantially greater financial resources than we do. Acquisitions or investments in businesses, or assets, as well as these alliances, are subject to risks that could affect our business, including risks related to:


·

issuing shares of stock that could dilute the interests of our existing stockholders;


·

spending cash and incurring debt;


·

assuming contingent liabilities; and


·

creating additional expenses.



27




We cannot assure you that we will be able to identify opportunities or complete transactions on commercially reasonable terms or at all, or that we will actually realize any anticipated benefits from such acquisitions, investments or alliances. Similarly, we cannot assure you that we will be able to obtain financing for acquisitions or



28



investments on attractive terms or at all, or that the ability to obtain financing will not be restricted by the terms of a revolving credit facility or other indebtedness we may incur.


The success of any such acquisitions or investments will also depend, in part, on our ability to integrate the acquisition or investment with our existing operations. We may experience difficulty with integrating acquired businesses, or other assets, including difficulties relating to: 


·

coordinating sales, distribution and marketing functions;


·

integrating technology information systems; and


·

preserving the important licensing, distribution, marketing, customer, labor and other relationships of the acquired assets.


In addition, any such acquisitions, investments, or alliances could demand significant attention from our management that would otherwise be available for our regular business operations, which could harm our business.


We may be unsuccessful in raising the necessary capital to fund operations and capital expenditures.


Our ability to generate cash flow is dependent upon our ability to find, excavate and monetize the cargo of shipwrecks. We cannot guarantee that the sales of the recovered cargo and/or related products and other available cash sources will generate sufficient cash flow to meet our overall cash requirements. If cash flow is not sufficient to meet our business requirements, we will be required to raise additional capital through other financing activities. Success in raising necessary funds is not guaranteed.


We depend on key personnel and face competition in hiring and retaining qualified personnel.


Key management and operational personnel may be difficult to replace. We do not have any employment or noncompetition agreements with our key personnel. We may not be able to recruit or retain qualified employees in the future, which could affect our business.


Our background research and data-gathering may prove unreliable.


The success of any marine salvage project is highly dependent on background research and data. Background research and data-gathering may prove to be imprecise, misleading, incomplete and/or unreliable. This data and research is further affected by the interpretation process due to factors such as analyst misinterpretations, erroneous calculations, and/or translation errors.


Operations may be hindered by natural hazards and weather patterns.


Marine salvage operations are inherently technologically challenging and may be delayed, suspended or aborted due to weather, sea conditions or other natural hazards. Operations may be dependent on both predictable and unpredictable seasonal weather cycles. We may not be able to logistically begin, continue or complete operations during favorable weather conditions. Both predictable and unpredictable weather events, including but not limited to storms, cyclones, hurricanes, typhoons and tsunamis, may delay, suspend or cause us to abort particular salvage operations.



29




Because of the speculative nature of our operations, there is substantial risk that no commercially exploitable cargo will be found and our business will fail.


We have only just begun operations, and thus have no way to evaluate the likelihood that we will be successful in our efforts to locate and monetize lost shipwrecks. You should be aware of the difficulties normally encountered by similar companies and the high rate of failure of such enterprises. The search for shipwrecks as a business is



30



inherently risky. We may not find any commercially exploitable shipwrecks. In such a case, we may be unable to continue operations, and you could lose your entire investment.


We may discover a commercially exploitable shipwreck cargo but be unable to successfully recover the cargo.


If our search program is successful in discovering a commercially exploitable cargo, we may require additional funds in order to advance operations into commercial recovery. In such an event, we may be unable to obtain the funds, equipment and/or personnel in order to continue operations, and we may be unable to generate revenues.


We may be unable to establish or maintain rights to recovered objects.


Other public and private entities may claim title to sites and/or recovered objects. Even if we are successful in locating and recovering shipwrecks and/or cargo, we cannot guarantee we will be able to establish or maintain legal possession over recovered objects if challenged by governmental entities, prior owners, decedents of prior owners, insurance interests, and other salvors.


We may experience delays in monetizing any recovered objects.


Even after a successful marine salvage operation, we may experience significant delays in monetizing any recovered objects. At this phase in operations, we have no sales personnel, distribution channels or sales contracts. Immediate access to buyers for recovered objects cannot be guaranteed, and delays in the monetization process may adversely affect our cash flows .


Legal, political, or civil issues may interfere with our marine salvage operations.


Legal, political, or civil initiatives of countries, international governing bodies and/or other maritime jurisdictions may prevent, restrict, suspend or abort our marine salvage operations.


Objects we recover could be taken from our possession.


Any marine salvage operation comes with a risk of theft or piracy prior to, during, or post marine salvage operations. Theft may not be adequately covered by insurance.


We may be unable to secure permission to conduct marine salvage operations.


It is possible that we will not be successful in obtaining title, permits or permission to excavate certain shipwrecks due to territorial, sovereign, or military concerns. Additionally, title, permits and permission may be denied, revoked, ruled illegal or not honored by the issuing entities.




31




We may not have access to the equipment and personnel needed for operations, which could cause delays or suspension of our operations


Competitive demands for contractors and unforeseen shortages of personnel and/or equipment may result in the disruption of planned operations. Fluctuations in demand for equipment and personnel could result in suitable equipment and personnel being unavailable at the scheduled times in our operations. Fuel prices are also subject to market fluctuation. We will attempt to locate suitable equipment personnel and fuel if sufficient funds are available. If we cannot find the equipment and personnel needed for our operations, we may have to suspend some or all operations until equipment, personnel, fuel, and/or funds can be obtained.


Technological obsolescence or critical failure of our marine salvage equipment could put a strain on our capital requirements and/or operational capabilities.




32



Our search and salvage operations will require the use of highly specialized and costly equipment, including but not limited to side-scan sonar, remotely-operated vehicles, winch systems, and computer processing equipment. This equipment may or may not be insured, insurable, repairable or replaceable, and may require difficult or time-consuming to source customized and/or specialized components. While we construct, upgrade, repair and maintain our equipment on a best-efforts basis, technological advances in new equipment may provide superior efficiencies and capability than our existing equipment. Such an industry shift may require us to purchase new equipment, requiring additional needs for capital.


Our business and operational results may be harmed if we fail to manage our growth or change.


Our business may experience periods of rapid change and/or growth that could place significant demands on our personnel and financial resources. To manage possible growth and change, we must continue to try to locate equipment, skilled personnel and funds in a timely manner.


The market for gold, silver and numismatically-graded coins are highly volatile and a decrease in the price of any would have a material adverse effect on our business.


The profitability of our operations are directly related to the market price of metals and the numismatic coin market. The market prices of metals and the numismatic coin market fluctuate significantly and are affected by a number of factors beyond our control, including, but not limited to, the rate of inflation, the exchange rate of the dollar to other currencies, interest rates, global economic and political conditions, and the collector’s market. Price fluctuations in the metals and numismatic market from the conception of a potential target to the conclusion of operations can significantly affect profitability. We may begin one or more operations at a time when the price of metals or numismatic coins make operations economically feasible and subsequently incur losses due to market decreases. Adverse fluctuations in the metals or numismatic market may force us to curtail or cease our business operations.


We face significant competition from better-established competitors


We compete with other interests possessing greater financial resources and technical facilities than we do in connection with the discovery and excavation of shipwrecks.


Risks Related To the Market for Our Stock


The market price of our common stock can be volatile, leading to the possibility of its value being depressed at a time when you may want to sell your holdings.




33




The market price of our shares is volatile. Numerous factors, many of which are beyond our control, may cause the market price of our common stock to fluctuate significantly. These factors include: our earnings releases, actual or anticipated changes in our earnings, fluctuations in our operating results or our failure to meet the expectations of financial market analysts and investors; changes in financial estimates by us or by any securities analysts who might cover our stock; speculation about our business in the press or the investment community; significant developments relating to our relationships with our customers or suppliers; stock market price and volume fluctuations of other publically traded companies and, in particular, those that are in our industry; customer demand for our products; investor perceptions of our industry in general and us in particular; the operating and stock performance of comparable companies; general economic conditions and trends; announcements by us or our competitors of new products, significant acquisitions, strategic partnerships or divestitures; changes in accounting standards, policies, guidance, interpretation or principles; loss of external funding sources; sales of our common stock, including sales by our directors, officers or significant shareholders; and additions or departures of key personnel. Securities class action litigation is often instituted against companies following periods of volatility in their stock price. Should this type of litigation be instituted against us, it could result in substantial costs to us and divert our management’s attention and resources.




34



Moreover, securities markets may from time to time experience significant price and volume fluctuations for reasons unrelated to the operating performance of particular companies. These market fluctuations may adversely affect the price of our common stock at a time when you want to sell your stock.


We have never declared or paid any cash dividends on shares of our common stock and we are not likely to pay cash dividends in the foreseeable future .


We intend to retain any future earnings for use in the operation and expansion of our business. We do not expect to pay any cash dividends in the foreseeable future but will review this policy as circumstances dictate. Should we decide in the future to do so, as a holding company, our ability to pay dividends and meet other obligations depends upon the receipt of dividends or other payments from our operating subsidiaries. In addition, our operating subsidiaries, from time to time, may be subject to restrictions on their ability to make distributions to us, including restrictions on the conversion of local currency into U.S. dollars or other hard currency and other regulatory restrictions .


We may be subject to penny stock regulations and restrictions and you may have difficulty selling shares of our common stock.


The SEC has adopted regulations which generally define so-called “penny stocks” to be an equity security that has a market price less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exemptions. As our common stock is a “penny stock,” it is subject to Rule 15g-9 under the Exchange Act, the so called “Penny Stock Rule”. This rule imposes additional sales practice requirements on broker-dealers that sell such securities to persons other than established customers and “accredited investors” (generally, individuals with a net worth in excess of $1,000,000 or annual incomes exceeding $200,000, or $300,000 together with their spouses). For transactions covered by the Penny Stock Rule, a broker-dealer must make a special suitability determination for the purchaser and have received the purchaser’s written consent to the transaction prior to sale. As a result, this rule may affect the ability of broker-dealers to sell our securities and may affect the ability of purchasers to sell any of our securities in the secondary market.


For any transaction involving a penny stock, unless exempt, the rules require delivery, prior to any transaction in a penny stock, of a disclosure schedule prepared by the SEC relating to the penny stock market. Disclosure is also required to be made about sales commissions payable to both the broker-dealer and the registered representative and current quotations for the securities. Finally, monthly statements are required to be sent disclosing recent price information for the penny stock held in the account and information on the limited market in penny stock.



35




Our common stock is illiquid and subject to price volatility unrelated to our operations.


If a liquid market for our common stock does develop, its market price could fluctuate substantially due to a variety of factors, including market perception of our ability to achieve our planned growth, quarterly operating results of other companies in the same industry, trading volume in our common stock, changes in general conditions in the economy and the financial markets or other developments affecting us or our competitors. In addition, the stock market itself is subject to extreme price and volume fluctuations. This volatility has had a significant effect on the market price of securities issued by many companies for reasons unrelated to their operating performance and could have the same effect on our common stock.


A large number of shares may be eligible for future sale and may depress our stock price.


We may be required, under terms of future financing arrangements, to offer a large number of common shares to the public, or to register for sale by future private investors a large number of shares sold in private sales to them.


Sales of substantial amounts of common stock, or a perception that such sales could occur, and the existence of options or warrants to purchase shares of common stock at prices that may be below the then-current market price of our common stock, could adversely affect the market price of our common stock and could impair our ability to raise capital through the sale of our equity securities, either of which would decrease the value of any earlier investment in our common stock.

ITEM 2—PROPERTIES


We currently share, at no charge, leased office space at 15500 Roosevelt Blvd., Suite 301 , Clearwater, FL 33760 , with Island Capital Management, an affiliate controlled by Micah Eldred.  We believe that such space is sufficient for our needs.  


ITEM 3—LEGAL PROCEEDINGS


As of December 31, 2013, there are no material, pending legal proceedings (other than ordinary routine litigation incidental to our business, if any) to which we are a party or of which any of our properties is the subject. Also, our management is not aware of any legal proceedings contemplated by any governmental authority against us.

ITEM 5—MARKET FOR REGISTRANT’S COMMON EQUITY , RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS AND ISSUER PURCHASES OF EQUITY SECURITIES


Our common stock has been quoted on the OTCQB electronic quotation system under the symbol “TTNC”. As a result of changing our company name to Endurance Exploration Group, Inc., our common stock is now quoted on the OTCQB electronic quotation system under the symbol “EXPL”. These prices reflect inter-dealer prices without retail mark-up, mark-down, or commission, and may not necessarily reflect actual transactions. The following table sets forth the high and low bid prices for the common stock as reported for each quarterly period from the last two years.

We are a voluntary filer under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.  As such, we make available our annual report which includes audited financial statements, and our quarterly reports which include unaudited financial statements.


As of December 31, 2013 there were 357 shareholders of record. The Board of Directors believes that the number of beneficial owners is greater than the number of record holders because a portion of our outstanding common stock is held in broker “street names” for the benefit of individual investors.


Dividends


We have not declared any cash dividends since inception and do not anticipate paying any dividends in the near future. The payment of dividends is within the discretion of the Board of Directors and will depend on our earnings, capital requirements, financial condition, and other relevant factors. There are no restrictions that currently limit our ability to pay dividends on its common stock other than those generally imposed by applicable state law.


Warrants and Options


As of December 31, 2013, we had issued non-qualified options to purchase 5,000,000 shares of our common stock at any time prior to December 15, 2015, with an exercise price of $0. 25 per share.

Issuances of Unregistered Securities


On May 6, 2013, we entered into a Debt Conversion Agreement with Endeavour Cooperative Partners LLC, a company controlled by Micah Eldred and Carl Dilley which was our largest shareholder at the time, relating to the conversion of indebtedness to Endeavour in the amount of $272,356. This amount represents the debt payable to Endeavour as of that date.  The terms of the agreement allowed for Endeavour to convert this debt into preferred stock at $.000172 per share (pre-reverse split), which value was determined by the Board of Directors to be fair and reasonable at the time.  The Company did not have sufficient common shares available for issuance in exchange for the debt on these terms, so it was agreed that the Company would issue shares of preferred stock, and such preferred shares would be exchanged on a one-for-one basis in the future for shares of common stock.  Although the market price of the common stock was hovering around $0.0002 per share at the time, the Board determined that the market price was not reflective of the true value of the stock.  Indications of this included the following facts:


·

there was very minimal trading activity in the Company’s stock,

·

as of April 30, 2013, the Company had no assets and negative shareholders’ equity of $352,786, and

·

between December 15, 2012 and May 3, 2013, Endeavour Cooperative Partners LLC had purchased approximately 29,900,000 shares of Company stock from other shareholders at a price of $0.0001 per share.  


On May 8, 2013, Endeavour filed a notice of conversion for $3,400 of its debt, in exchange for 19,736,560 of pre-reverse split preferred shares.  These shares converted to 493,414 shares of preferred stock after the reverse split, and were converted into shares of common stock on a one-for-one basis on December 31, 2013.  


On December 31, 2013, we entered into an Addendum to the Debt Conversion Agreement, dated May 6, 2013, with Endeavour Cooperative Partners LLC, relating to the conversion of indebtedness to Endeavour in the amount of $289,390.  This amount represents the related party debt payable to Endeavour as of that date.  The terms of the agreement allowed for Endeavour to convert this debt into common stock at $0.022727 per share, which the Board believed to be based on the value of the stock prior to the closing of the acquisition of Endurance Exploration Group, LLC later that day, based on recent trading activity.  Endeavour converted all of such debt into shares on such date, as a result of which we issued 12,733,499 shares to Endeavour.  


On December 31, 2013, our Board of Directors authorized the issuance of, and we issued, 3,450,000 shares of common stock, valued at $0.0229 per share, as compensation to certain employees and consultants for services rendered.  


On December 31, 2013, we completed the purchase of 100% of the membership interests of Endurance Exploration Group, LLC (“Endurance LLC”), from its members in exchange for 20,550,539 shares of our common stock, valued at $0.0186 per share, based upon the net book value of the assets of Endurance LLC of $381,173 as of December 31, 2013.


On December 31, 2013, our Board of Directors authorized the issuance of, and we issued, options to purchase an aggregate of 5,000,000 shares of our common stock at $0.25 per share any time prior to December 15, 2015.  Options were issued to our directors (Micah Eldred, Carl Dilley and Christine Zitman), our employees and certain consultants and service providers as compensation for services rendered and as an inducement for the consultants (Guy Zajonc, Steven Saint Amour and Errol de Montille) to join our Board of Directors.  


All of the foregoing shares issuances were exempt from registration under Section 4(2)(a) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

ITEM 6—SELECTED FINANCIAL DATA


Not applicable


ITEM 7—MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


The results presented in this “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Conditions and Results of Operations” are those of Endurance Exploration Group, Inc. and its subsidiaries as reflected in the audited consolidated financial statements included herein.


Plan of Operation


We intend to continue survey operations in the summer season of 2014. Side-scan sonar survey operations on Project “Sailfish” began in July of 2013. Over the course of this initial survey, approximately 700 square miles were digitally mapped. This sonar imagery was then post-processed and evaluated for potential targets. Our current plan of operations is to return for further sonar survey, target identification and recovery work.


In November 2013, Endurance LLC entered into a contract with the sovereign government of an island nation in the Indian Ocean. The contract provides us with a three-year period in which to operate within the territorial waters of the nation with full permission to survey for and recover the “Black Marlin” and her silver cargo. Net proceeds of our recovery efforts, after payment the costs to transport, store and insure any recovered items, will be split between us (75%) and the island government (25%). We expect to begin initial survey operations on project “Black Marlin” in mid to late -2014.


Critical Accounting Estimates – Stock Based Compensation


We apply the provisions of FASB ASC 718, “Compensation – Stock Compensation,” to account for our stock-based compensation.  Stock-based compensation cost is measured at the grant date based on the calculated fair value of the award.  We measure the fair value of each stock option grant at the date of grant using a Black-Scholes option pricing model. The weighted average grant-date fair value of options granted during 2013 was $.003985. We used the following Black-Scholes assumptions in arriving at the fair value of options granted on December 31, 2013:


Expected Life In Years

1.5

Risk-free Interest Rates

.350%

Volatility

145.04%

Dividend Yield

0%


Results of Operations


The following information represents our results of operations for the eleven months ended December 31, 2013 and for the year ended January 31, 2013, exclusive of the historical operations of Endurance Exploration Group LLC. which we acquired on December 31, 2013.   Proforma combined results of operations for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 as though the acquisition had taken place on January 1, 2012, are included in the notes to the audited consolidated financial statements included in this report for comparative purposes.


Revenue


Since our inception on January 19, 2006 to December 31, 2013, we have not generated any revenues. With the acquisition of Endurance Exploration Group LLC, we hope to begin generating revenue in 2014 from aquatic research, survey, inspection and recovery projects, as well as maritime contract services and consulting.



41




Expenses


We incurred $19,925 in stock based compensation for the eleven months ended December 31, 2013 as compared to $0 for the year ended January 31, 2013, an increase of $19,925.  The stock based compensation is a result of the options issued at December 31, 2013.


We incurred general and administrative expenses of $37,813 for the eleven months ended December 31, 2013 as compared to $6,663 for the year ended January 31, 2013, an increase of $31,150.  The general and administrative costs consist primarily of legal and professional fees.  


Net Losses


For the eleven month period ended December 31, 2013, we incurred a net loss of $59,113 as compared to $9,368 for the year ended January 31, 2013.


Current Liquidity and Capital Resources


Since Endeavour Cooperative Partners, LLC, acquired control of us in January 2013, we have funded our operations primarily through the sale of equity securities in private placements and debt financing.


As of December 31, 2013, we had $2,540 in cash .  


Net cash used by operating activities was $26,608 for the eleven months ended December 31, 2013.   


Net cash provided by investing activities was $1,940 for the eleven months ended December 31, 2013, and is represented by the cash balance acquired with the purchase of Endurance Exploration Group , LLC on December 31, 2013.


Net cash provided by financing activities was $27,208 for the eleven months ended December 31, 2013.  This amount represents funds advanced from related parties to facilitate operations for the period.


Other Recent Financings


On December 31, 2013, we entered into an Addendum to the Debt Conversion Agreement, dated May 6, 2013, with Endeavour Cooperative Partners LLC, a company controlled by Micah Eldred and Carl Dilley, in the amount of $289,390.  This amount represents the related party debt payable to Endeavour as of that date.  The terms of the agreement allowed for Endeavour to convert this debt into common stock at $0.022727 per share, which Endeavour did, as a result of which we issued 12,733,496 shares to Endeavour.  




42




Future Capital Requirements


Our current available cash and cash equivalents are insufficient to satisfy our liquidity requirements.  Our capital requirements for 2014 will depend on numerous factors, including management’s evaluation of the timing of projects to pursue. Subject to our ability to generate revenues and cash flow from operations and our ability to raise additional capital (including through possible joint ventures and/or partnerships), we expect to incur substantial expenditures to carry out our business plan, as well as costs associated with our capital raising efforts and being a public company.  


Our plans to finance our operations include seeking both equity and debt financing, alliances or other partnership agreements, or other business transactions, that would generate sufficient resources to ensure continuation of our operations.  


We will require substantial funds, not only for administration and public company costs, but also to conduct full marine survey and recovery operations.  Our principal shareholder, Micah Eldred has committed to loan to us, or cause companies controlled by him to loan to us, up to $15,000 per month, if necessary, as the amount estimated for those administration and public company costs.  In addition, Mr. Eldred has also committed to loan funds during the second quarter sufficient to conduct preliminary ROV inspection of selected targets identified in the 2013 survey season.  We have based our estimates on assumptions that may prove to be wrong.  


The sale of additional equity or debt securities may result in additional dilution to our shareholders. If we raise additional funds through the issuance of debt securities or preferred stock, these securities could have rights senior to those of our common stock and could contain covenants that would restrict our operations.  Any such required additional capital may not be available on reasonable terms, if at all. If we were unable to obtain additional financing, we may be required to reduce the scope of, delay or eliminate some or all of our planned activities and limit our operations which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.


Research and Development


For the eleven months ended December 31, 2013 and the year ended January 31, 2013, we did not have any research and development expenses.


Inflation


The amounts presented in the our consolidated financial statements do not provide for the effect of inflation on our operations or financial position. The net operating losses shown would be greater than reported if the effects of inflation were reflected either by charging operations with amounts that represent replacement costs or by using other inflation adjustments.


Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements


As of December 31, 2013, we had no off balance sheet transactions.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM


The Board of Directors and Stockholders

Endurance Exploration Group, Inc. (formerly Tecton Corporation)


We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Endurance Exploration Group, Inc. as of December 31, 2013 and January 31, 2013, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for the eleven months ended December 31, 2013 and the year ended January 31, 2013.  These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management.  Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audit.  


We conducted our audit 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 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 consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Endurance Exploration Group, Inc. as of December 31, 2013 and January 31, 2013, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the eleven months ended December 31, 2013 and the year ended January 31, 2013 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.


The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern.  As shown in the accompanying consolidated financial statements, the Company has significant net losses and cash flow deficiencies.  Those conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.  Management’s plans regarding those matters are described in Note B.  The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

ENDURANCE EXPLORATION GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

DECEMBER 31, 2013


NOTE A - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES


A summary of the significant accounting policies applied in the preparation of the accompanying consolidated financial statements follows.


Description of Business


Endurance Exploration Group, Inc. (formerly Tecton Corporation) (the “Company”) was incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on January 19, 2006, as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Hemis Corporation.  On December 1, 2006 Hemis declared a dividend of Tecton shares to all shareholders as of that date and concurrently cancelled its share ownership in the Company.  The effect of this dividend declaration and share cancellation was that Tecton was spun off as an independent company.


On November 8, 2013, the Board of Directors approved a change of the Company’s fiscal year from January 31, to December 31.   Thus, our next full fiscal year will begin on January 1, 2014. These financial statements are being filed as part of a transition report on Form 10-K covering the transition period that began February 1, 2013 and ended December 31, 2013.   


On December 31, 2013 the Company acquired 100% of the membership interests of Endurance Exploration Group LLC, a Florida Limited Liability Company, in exchange for 20,550,539 shares of the Company’s Common Stock being issued to the former members.  Endurance Exploration Group LLC is now a wholly owned subsidiary with its operations being the Company’s primary focus.  


Endurance Exploration Group LLC – is engaged in the archaeologically sensitive exploration and recovery of deep-ocean shipwrecks throughout the world. We intend to recover bullion precious metals, numismatic-grade coinage, high-value non-ferrous metals and other valuable cargos from both historic and modern shipwrecks.


On January 2, 2014 the Company changed its name to Endurance Exploration Group, Inc.


Our corporate headquarters are located in Clearwater, Florida.


The company discontinued operations on or about June 1, 2008 and has incurred losses of $4,940,214 since inception through December 31, 2013.  The company was formerly an exploration stage company but is no longer reporting as such.


Principles of consolidation and basis of presentation


These consolidated financial statements include the assets and liabilities of Endurance Exploration Group, Inc. (formerly Tecton Corporation) and its subsidiaries as of December 31, 2013.  As the acquisition of the membership interests of Endurance Exploration Group LLC and its wholly owned Panamanian subsidiary formed to hold the registry of a research vessel, occurred as of the close of its business on December 31, 2013, the results of operations for this acquired company will be reported commencing with January 1, 2014.


All material intercompany transactions have been eliminated.




50




Use of Estimates


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


Subsequent Events


The Company has evaluated subsequent events through February 20, 2014 to assess the need for potential recognition or disclosure in this report. Based upon this evaluation, management determined that all subsequent events that require recognition in the financial statements have been included.


Cash and Cash Equivalents


For purposes of the Statements of Cash Flows, the Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with a maturity date of three months or less to be cash equivalents.


Fixed Assets


Fixed assets are stated at historical cost. Depreciation is provided using the straight-line method at rates based on the assets’ estimated useful lives which are normally between three and ten years. When retired or otherwise disposed, the related carrying value and accumulated depreciation are removed from the respective accounts and the net difference less any amount realized from disposition, is reflected in earnings. Leasehold improvements are amortized over their estimated useful lives or lease term, if shorter. Equipment and Major overhaul items (such as engines or generators) that enhance or extend the useful life of vessel related assets qualify to be capitalized and depreciated over the useful life or remaining life of that asset, whichever is shorter. Certain major repair items required by industry standards to ensure a vessel’s seaworthiness also qualify to be capitalized and depreciated over the period of time until the next scheduled planned major maintenance for that item. All other repairs and maintenance are accounted for under the direct-expensing method and are expensed when incurred.


Income Taxes


The Company uses the liability method to record income tax activity. Deferred taxes are determined based upon the estimated future tax effects of differences between the financial reporting and tax reporting bases of assets and liabilities given the provisions of currently enacted tax laws.


The accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise’s financial statements uses the threshold of more-likely-than-not to be sustained upon examination for inclusion or exclusion. Measurement of the tax uncertainty occurs if the recognition threshold has been met.


Net Earnings (Losses) Per Common Share


The Company computes earnings (loss) per share by dividing net earnings (loss) by the weighted average number of shares of common stock and dilutive common stock equivalents outstanding during the year. Dilutive common stock equivalents may consist of shares issuable upon conversion of convertible preferred shares and the exercise of the Company’s stock options and warrants (calculated using the treasury stock method). As of December 31, 2013, there were 5,000,000 common stock equivalents that were anti-dilutive and were not included in the calculation. Common stock issuable is considered outstanding as of the original approval date for purposes of earnings per share computations.




51




Fair Value of Financial Instruments


The fair value of financial instruments, which include cash, loans receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses and advances from related parties were estimated to approximate their carrying values due to the immediate or short-term maturity of these financial instruments. Management is of the opinion that the Company is not exposed to significant interest, currency or credit risks arising from financial instruments.


Comprehensive Income


The Company records comprehensive income as the change in equity of a business during a period from transactions and other events and circumstances from non-owner sources. It includes all changes in equity during a period except those resulting from investments by owners and distributions to owners. Other comprehensive income (loss) includes foreign currency translation adjustments and unrealized gains and losses on available-for-sale securities. As of December 31, 2013 the Company had no items that represent comprehensive loss and, therefore, has not included a schedule of comprehensive loss in the financial statements.


Stock Based Compensation


Stock based compensation costs are measured at fair value on date of grant and recognition of compensation over the service period for awards expected to vest. The Company determines the fair value of awards using the Black - Scholes valuation model.


New Accounting Pronouncements


The Company reviews new accounting standards as issued. No new standards had any material effect on these financial statements. The accounting pronouncements issued subsequent to the date of these financial statements that were considered significant by management were evaluated for the potential effect on these consolidated financial statements. Management does not believe any of the subsequent pronouncements will have a material effect on these consolidated financial statements as presented and does not anticipate the need for any future restatement of these consolidated financial statements because of the retro-active application of any accounting pronouncements issued subsequent to December 31, 2013 through the date these financial statements were issued.


NOTE B – GOING CONCERN MATTERS


The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. As shown in the accompanying financial statements for the period January 19, 2006 (date of inception) to December 31, 2013, the Company incurred losses of $4,940,214. The Company has minimal liquid assets. These factors, among others, indicate that the Company will be unable to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time.


The Company’s existence is dependent upon management’s ability to develop profitable operations and resolve its liquidity problems. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.


NOTE C – ACQUISITION OF ENDURANCE EXPLORATION GROUP LLC MEMBERSHIP INTERESTS


On December 31, 2013 the Company acquired 100% of the membership interests of Endurance Exploration Group LLC, a Florida Limited Liability Company by issuing 20,550,539 shares of its common stock.




52




The majority shareholders of Endurance Exploration Group, Inc. (formerly Tecton Corporation) also held a majority interest in Endurance Exploration Group LLC, and maintained controlling interests in both entities both before and after the transaction.  Accordingly, the acquisition has been accounted for as a corporate re-organization because of the common control.  The book value of Endurance Exploration Group LLC at the time of the acquisition was as follows:

On December 31, 2013, the Company issued 12,733,499 common shares in satisfaction of $289, 390 of related party debt, which included the $25,000 owed to Island Capital Management, LLC under the promissory note dated April 27, 2011.


On December 31, 2013, as a consequence of acquiring the membership interests of Endurance Exploration Group LLC, the Company assumed certain liabilities to related parties in the amount of $62,500.  This amount is comprised an advance from a related party in the amount of $2,500 and a demand promissory note in the amount of $60,000 with no stipulated maturity date, payable to Micah Eldred, dated June 19, 2012, bearing interest at 5%.   


Total amounts remaining due to related parties through advances and the promissory note were $62,500 and $169,150 as of December 31, 2013 and January 31, 2013 respectively.  Except for the terms stipulated in the promissory note, all other amounts advanced are unsecured, non-interest bearing and have no specific terms of repayment.


NOTE F – PREFERRED AND COMMON STOCK TRANSACTIONS AND REVERSE SPLIT


On May 6 , 2013, the Company entered into a Debt Conversion Agreement with Endeavour Cooperative Partners LLC in the amount of $272,356.  This amount represents the related party debt payable to Endeavour as of that date.  The terms of the agreement allow for Endeavour to convert this debt into preferred stock at $.000172 per share.  On May 8, 2013 Endeavour filed a notice of conversion for $3,400 of its debt, in exchange for 19,736,560 of pre-reverse split preferred shares.  These shares converted to 493,414 shares of preferred stock after the reverse split.  


On May 31 , 2013 , the Company affected a 1 share for 40 shares reverse split of its common and preferred stock.  As a result, the issued and outstanding shares at that date were decreased from 79,736,560 to 1,993,495.  The authorized shares at that date were then decreased from 100,000,000 to 2,500,000; 2,000,000 shares of common stock and 500,000 preferred shares.

NOTE H – INCOME TAXES


Potential benefits of income tax losses are not recognized in the accounts until realization is more likely than not. The Company has net operating losses of $4,940,214 since inception on January 19, 2006. The Company computes tax asset benefits for net operating losses carried forward.

The net operating loss will start to expire in the year ended January 31, 2026.  Due to discontinuing operation in June 2008 and the change in ownership, restrictions may apply.

ITEM 9 CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE


There have been no disagreements on accounting and financial disclosures from the inception of our company through the date of this Report.  Our audited consolidated financial statements have been included in this annual report in reliance upon DKM Certified Public Accountants, Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm, as an expert in accounting and auditing.


ITEM 9A — CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES


Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures


Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and the principal financial officer (our president), we have conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded as of the evaluation date that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective such that the material information required to be included in our Securities and Exchange Commission reports is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive and financial officer, recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms relating to our company, particularly during the period when this report was being prepared.


Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting


Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act.


Internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that: (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of our assets; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of its management and directors; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.


Management recognizes that there are inherent limitations in the effectiveness of any system of internal control, and accordingly, even effective internal control can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and may not prevent or detect material misstatements. In addition, effective internal control at a point in time may become ineffective in future periods because of changes in conditions or due to deterioration in the degree of compliance with our established policies and procedures.


Under the supervision and with the participation of our president, management conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting, as of December 31, 2013, based on the framework set forth in Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). Based on our evaluation under this framework, management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of the evaluation date.



57



The following material weaknesses were noted:


1.

We have no audit committee and none of our Directors were considered independent. We had not adopted a policy on fraud or code of ethics.


2.

We have no financial expert on our Board of Directors who is able to detect a material misstatement.




58



3.

We had no processes in place for someone to review and determine financial impacts of contracts and agreements.


Changes in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting


Management is in the process of establishing the necessary controls over financial reporting to address the above material weaknesses. There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the last fiscal quarter for our fiscal year ended December 31, 2013, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Term of Office


Our directors are appointed for one year terms to hold office until the next annual meeting of our shareholders or until removed from office in accordance with our bylaws. Our executive officers are appointed by our Board of Directors and hold office pursuant to employment agreements or until removed by the board.


Family Relationships


There are no family relationships between or among the directors or executive officers.




64




Director Independence


The Board had no independent Directors during 2013.  


Involvement in Certain Legal Proceedings


During the past ten years there are no events that occurred related to an involvement in legal proceedings that are material to an evaluation of the ability or integrity of any of our directors, persons nominated to become directors or executive officers.




65



Code of Ethics


We have not adopted a Code of Ethics within the meaning of Item 406(b) of Regulation S-K of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The Code of Ethics is required that applies to directors and senior officers, such as the principal executive officer, principal financial officer, controller, and persons performing similar functions. We expect to adopt a Code of Ethics in the next twelve months.


Nominations for Directors


We do not have a nominating committee. The Board of Directors, sitting as a Board, selects individuals to stand for election as members of the Board. Since the Board of Directors does not include a majority of independent directors, the decision of the Board as to director nominees is made by persons who have an interest in the outcome of the determination.   The Board will consider candidates for directors proposed by security holders, although no formal procedures for submitting candidates have been adopted. Unless otherwise determined, not less than 90 days prior to the next annual Board of Directors’ meeting at which the slate of Board nominees is adopted, the Board will accept written submissions of proposed nominees that include the name, address and telephone number of the proposed nominee; a brief statement of the nominee’s qualifications to serve as a director; and a statement as to why the shareholder submitting the proposed nominee believes that the nomination would be in the best interests of shareholders. If the proposed nominee is not the same person as the shareholder submitting the name of the nominee, a letter from the nominee agreeing to the submission of his or her name for consideration should be provided at the time of submission. The letter should be accompanied by a résumé supporting the nominee’s qualifications to serve on the Board of Directors, as well as a list of references.


The Board identifies director nominees through a combination of referrals from different people, including management, existing Board members and security holders. Once a candidate has been identified, the Board reviews the individual’s experience and background and may discuss the proposed nominee with the source of the recommendation. If the Board believes it to be appropriate, Board members may meet with the proposed nominee before making a final determination whether to include the proposed nominee as a member of management’s slate of director nominees submitted to shareholders for election to the Board.


Among the factors that the Board considers when evaluating proposed nominees are their knowledge of, and experience in business matters, finance, capital markets and mergers and acquisitions. The Board may request additional information from the candidate prior to reaching a determination. The Board is under no obligation to formally respond to all recommendations, although as a matter of practice, it will endeavor to do so.


Audit Committee


The functions of an audit committee are currently carried out by our Board of Directors. Our Board of Directors has determined that we do not have an audit committee financial expert on our Board of Directors. The Board of Directors has determined that the cost of hiring a financial expert to act as a Director and to be a member of an audit committee or otherwise perform audit committee functions outweighs the benefits of having a financial expert.



66




Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Compliance Reporting


As we do not have a class of securities registered under Section 12 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 , our directors and officers, and persons who own more than ten-percent (10%) of our common stock, are not required to file reports of ownership on Form 3 and reports of changes in ownership on Forms 4 and 5 , with the SEC .

ITEM 13 – CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS, RELATED TRANSACTIONS AND DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCE


During 2012 and 2013, Endeavour Cooperative Partners LLC, a company controlled by Micah Eldred and Carl Dilley, and Endeavour’s subsidiaries, Island Capital Management LLC and Proxy & Printing, LLC, made numerous advances to us in order to provide us with funds to carry on our operations.  None of such companies charged us interest on such advances.  In addition, during fiscal 2012 and 2013, Endeavour Cooperative Partners acquired the right to payment under certain accounts and promissory notes from a number of our creditors.  The aggregate amount due to Endeavour and its subsidiaries for these advances to us and under the accounts and notes purchased by Endeavour from our creditors was $166,650 at January 31, 2013.


On May 6, 2013, we entered into a Debt Conversion Agreement with Endeavour Cooperative Partners, which also was our largest shareholder at the time, relating to the conversion of our indebtedness to Endeavour, then in the amount of $272,356.  The terms of the agreement allowed for Endeavour to convert this debt into shares of our preferred stock at $.000172 per share (pre-reverse split), which value was determined by the Board of Directors to be fair and reasonable at the time.  We did not have sufficient common shares available for issuance in exchange for the debt on these terms, so it was agreed that we would issue shares of preferred stock, and such preferred shares would be exchanged on a one-for-one basis in the future for shares of common stock.  Although the market price of the common stock was hovering around $0.0002 per share at the time, the Board determined that the market price was not reflective of the true value of the stock.  Indications of this included the following facts:


·

there was very minimal trading activity in our stock,

·

as of April 30, 2013, we had no assets and negative shareholders’ equity of $352,786, and

·

between December 15, 2012 and May 3, 2013, Endeavour Cooperative Partners had purchased approximately 29,900,000 shares of our common stock from other shareholders at a price of $0.0001 per share.  


On May 8, 2013, Endeavour filed a notice of conversion for $3,400 of its debt, in exchange for 19,736,560 of pre-reverse split preferred shares.  These shares converted to 493,414 shares of preferred stock after the reverse split, and were converted into shares of common stock on a one-for-one basis on December 31, 2013.  


On December 31, 2013, we entered into an Addendum to the Debt Conversion Agreement, dated May 6, 2013, with Endeavour relating to the conversion of our indebtedness to Endeavour, then in the amount of $289,390.  The terms of the agreement allowed for Endeavour to convert this debt into common stock at $0.022727 per share, which the Board believed to be based on the value of the stock prior to the closing of the acquisition of Endurance Exploration Group, LLC later that day, based on recent trading activity.  Endeavour converted all of such debt into shares on such date, as a result of which we issued 12,733,499 shares of common stock to Endeavour.  


On December 31, 2013, we completed the purchase of 100% of the membership interests of Endurance Exploration Group, LLC (“Endurance LLC”), from its members, Micah Eldred and Carl Dilley, in exchange for 20,550,539 shares of our common stock, valued at $0.0186 per share, based upon the net book value of the assets of Endurance LLC, $381,173 as of December 31, 2013.


On December 31, 2013, as a consequence of acquiring the membership interests of Endurance LLC, we assumed a liability of Endurance LLC to Micah Eldred under a demand promissory note, dated June 19, 2012, in the original principal amount of $60,000, bearing interest at 5%.  The note has no stipulated maturity date, and the balance due under the note at January 31, 2013 and December 31, 2013, including accrued interest, was $61,875 and $64,625, respectively.


We have entered into a contract with Island Capital Management LLC, which is owned and controlled by Micah Eldred and Carl Dilley, to serve as our transfer agent.  It did not charge us for its services during 2012 or 2013.

We have entered into a contract with Proxy & Printing LLC, which is owned and controlled by Micah Eldred and Carl Dilley, to provide us with printing and other services relating to our filings with the SEC.  It did not charge us for its services during 2012 or 2013.




74




Other than as described above, we have not entered into any transactions with our officers, Directors , persons nominated for these positions, beneficial owners of 5% or more of our common stock, or family members of these persons since January 1, 2012, wherein the amount involved in the transaction or a series of similar transactions exceeded the lesser of $120,000 or 1% of the average of our total assets for the last two fiscal years. It is anticipated that we will continue to borrow from Endeavour Cooperative Partners and its subsidiaries in 2014 to meet our cash needs.  It is anticipated that the terms of such borrowings will be more favorable than we could obtain from independent third parties, and that we may enter into additional agreements with Endeavour to allow us to repay such indebtedness in shares of common stock.  


Review and Approval of Related Person Transactions


In order to ensure that material transactions and relationships involving a potential conflict of interest for any executive officer or director of the Company are in the best interests of the Company, all such conflicts of interest are required to be reported to the Board of Directors, and the approval of the Board of Directors must be obtained in advance for the Company to enter into any such transaction or relationship.


Any member of the Board who has a conflict of interest with respect to a transaction under review may not participate in the deliberations or vote respecting approval of the transaction, provided, however, that such director may be counted in determining the presence of a quorum.

  

Director Independence


The Board had no independent Directors during 2013.

This Agreement, when executed and delivered by the Company, shall constitute a valid and binding obligation of the Company, enforceable in accordance with its terms. The Shares, when issued in compliance with the provisions of this Agreement, will be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable.

1.

CONVERSION RIGHTS

1.1.

Conversion Right .  The Holder shall have the right from time to time to convert all or any part of the Debt into fully paid and non- assessable shares of Stock, as such Stock exists on the Date of this Debt Conversion Agreement, or any shares of capital stock or other securities of the Company into which such Stock shall hereafter be changed or reclassified at the conversion price (the “Conversion Price”) determined as provided herein (a “Conversion”).  The number of shares of Stock to be issued upon the conversion of the Debt shall be determined by multiplying the Conversion Amount (as defined below) by the Conversion Price (as defined in paragraph 1.2 below). The term “Conversion Amount” means, with respect to any conversion of this Debt, the amount the Holder elects to convert.

1.2.

Conversion Price

1.2.1.

The conversion factor (the “Conversion Factor”) shall be 5804.87 shares per dollar converted.  

1.2.2.

In the event of a change in authorized capital and a corresponding change in issued and outstanding shares, the Conversion Factor shall be increased or decreased in proportion to the increase or decrease in authorized shares.

1.3.

  Authorized Shares .  

1.3.1.

The Company covenants that during the period the conversion right exists, the Company will reserve from its authorized and unissued Stock a sufficient number of shares, free from preemptive rights, to provide for the issuance of Stock upon the full conversion of this Debt.  The Company represents that upon issuance, such shares will be duly and validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable.  In addition, if the Company shall issue any securities or make any change to its capital structure which would change the number of shares of Stock into which the Debts shall be convertible at the Conversion Price, the Company shall at the same time make proper provision so that thereafter there shall be a sufficient number of shares of Stock authorized and reserved, free from preemptive rights, for conversion of the outstanding Debts.

1.3.2.

If, at any time a Holder of this Debt submits a Notice of Conversion, and the Company does not have sufficient authorized but unissued shares of Stock available to effect such conversion in accordance with the provisions of this Article I (a “Conversion Default”), the Company shall issue to the Holder all of the shares of Stock which are then available to effect such conversion.  The portion of this Debt which the Holder included in its Conversion Notice and which exceeds the amount which is then convertible into available shares of Stock (the “Excess Amount”) shall, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, not be convertible into Stock in accordance with the terms hereof until (and at the Holder’s option at any time after) the date additional shares of Stock are authorized by the Company to permit such conversion.

1.4.

Method of Conversion

1.4.1.

Mechanics of Conversion .  Subject to Section 1.1, this Debt may be converted by the Holder in whole or in part at any time following the date of this Debt



Page 2 of 10


Agreement, by (A) submitting to the Company the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Notice of Conversion”) (by facsimile or other reasonable means of communication dispatched on the Conversion Date prior to 6:00 p.m., Clearwater, Florida time) and (B) subject to Section 1.4.2, surrendering the underlying debt purchase agreements at the principal office of the Company

1.4.2.

Surrender of Debt Purchase Agreements Upon Conversion .  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, upon conversion of the Debt in accordance with the terms hereof, the Holder shall not be required to physically surrender all the Debt Purchase Agreements to the Company unless the entire unpaid principal amount of the Debt is so converted.  The Holder and the Company shall maintain records showing the principal amount so converted and the dates of such conversions or shall use such other method, reasonably satisfactory to the Holder and the Company, so as not to require physical surrender of Debt Purchase Agreements upon each such conversion.  In the event of any dispute or discrepancy, such records of the Company shall, prima facie, be controlling and determinative in the absence of manifest error.  The Holder and any assignee, by acceptance of this Debt Conversion Agreement, acknowledge and agree that, by reason of the provisions of this paragraph, following conversion of a portion of this Debt, the unpaid and unconverted principal amount of the Debt represented by this Debt Conversion Agreement may be less than the amount stated on the face hereof.

1.4.3.

Payment of Taxes .  The Company shall not be required to pay any tax which may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issue and delivery of shares of Stock or other securities or property on conversion of this Debt in a name other than that of the Holder (or in street name), and the Company shall not be required to issue or deliver any such shares or other securities or property unless and until the person or persons (other than the Holder or the custodian in whose street name such shares are to be held for the Holder’s account) requesting the issuance thereof shall have paid to the Company the amount of any such tax or shall have established to the satisfaction of the Company that such tax has been paid

1.4.4.

Delivery of Stock Upon Conversion .  Upon receipt by the Company from the Holder of a facsimile transmission (or other reasonable means of communication) of a Notice of Conversion meeting the requirements for conversion as provided in this Section 1.4, the Company shall issue and deliver or cause to be issued and delivered to or upon the order of the Holder the Stock issuable upon such conversion within three (3) business days after such receipt in accordance with the terms hereof.

1.4.5.

Obligation of Company to Deliver Stock .  Upon receipt by the Company of a Notice of Conversion, the Holder shall be deemed to be the holder of record of the Stock issuable upon such conversion, the outstanding principal amount and the amount of accrued and unpaid interest on this Debt shall be reduced to reflect such conversion, and, unless the Company defaults on its obligations under this Article I, all rights with respect to the portion of this Debt being so converted shall forthwith terminate except the right to receive the Stock or other securities, cash or other assets, as herein provided, on such conversion.  If the Holder shall have given a Notice of Conversion as provided herein, the Company’s obligation to issue and deliver the Stock shall be absolute and unconditional, irrespective of the absence of any action by the Holder to enforce the same, any waiver or consent with respect to any provision thereof, the recovery of any judgment against any person or any action to enforce the same, any failure or delay in the enforcement of any other obligation of the Company to the holder of record, or any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, limitation or termination, or any breach or alleged breach by the Holder of any obligation to the Company, and irrespective of any other circumstance which might otherwise limit such obligation of the Company to the Holder in connection with such



Page 3 of 10


conversion.  The Conversion Date specified in the Notice of Conversion shall be the Conversion Date so long as the Notice of Conversion is received by the Company before 6:00 p.m., EST.

1.4.6.

Delivery of Stock by Electronic Transfer .  In lieu of delivering physical certificates representing the Stock issuable upon conversion, provided the Company’s transfer agent is participating in the Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) Fast Automated Securities Transfer (“FAST”) program, upon request of the Holder and its compliance with the provisions contained in Section 1.1 and in this Section 1.4, the Company shall use its best efforts to cause its transfer agent to electronically transmit the Stock issuable upon conversion to the Holder by crediting the account of Holder’s Prime Broker with DTC through its Deposit Withdrawal Agent Commission (“DWAC”) system or other electronic transfer service.

1.5.

Concerning the Shares .  

1.5.1.

The shares of Stock issuable upon conversion of this Debt may not be sold or transferred unless  (i) such shares are sold pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Act or (ii) the Company or its transfer agent shall have been furnished with an opinion of  counsel (which opinion shall be in form, substance and scope customary for opinions of counsel in comparable transactions) to the effect that the shares to be sold or transferred may be sold or transferred pursuant to an exemption from such registration or (iii) such shares are sold or transferred pursuant to Rule 144 under the Act (or a successor rule) (“Rule 144”) or (iv) such shares are transferred to an “affiliate” (as defined in Rule 144) of the Company who agrees to sell or otherwise transfer the shares only in accordance with this Section 1.5. Until such time as the shares of Stock issuable upon conversion of this Debt have been registered under the Act or otherwise may be sold pursuant to Rule 144 without any restriction as to the number of securities as of a particular date that can then be immediately sold, each certificate for shares of Stock issuable upon conversion of this Debt that has not been so included in an effective registration statement or that has not been sold pursuant to an effective registration statement or an exemption that permits removal of the legend, shall bear a legend substantially in the following form, as appropriate:

“NEITHER THE ISSUANCE AND SALE OF THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE NOR THE SECURITIES INTO WHICH THESE SECURITIES ARE EXERCISABLE HAVE BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS.  THE SECURITIES MAY NOT BE OFFERED FOR SALE, SOLD, TRANSFERRED OR ASSIGNED (I) IN THE ABSENCE OF (A) AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT FOR THE SECURITIES UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR (B) AN OPINION OF COUNSEL (WHICH COUNSEL SHALL BE SELECTED BY THE HOLDER), IN A GENERALLY ACCEPTABLE FORM, THAT REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED UNDER SAID ACT OR (II) UNLESS SOLD PURSUANT TO RULE 144 OR RULE 144A UNDER SAID ACT.  NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING, THE SECURITIES MAY BE PLEDGED IN CONNECTION WITH A BONA FIDE MARGIN ACCOUNT OR OTHER LOAN OR FINANCING ARRANGEMENT SECURED BY THE SECURITIES.”

1.5.2.

The legend set forth above shall be removed and the Company shall issue to the Holder a new certificate therefore free of any transfer legend if (i) the Company or its transfer agent shall have received an opinion of counsel, in form, substance and scope customary for opinions of counsel in comparable transactions, to the effect that a public sale or transfer of such Stock may be made without



Page 4 of 10


registration under the Act and the shares are so sold or transferred, (ii) such Holder provides the Company or its transfer agent with reasonable assurances that the Stock issuable upon conversion of this Debt can be sold pursuant to Rule 144 or (iii) in the case of the Stock issuable upon conversion of this Debt, such security is registered for sale by the Holder under an effective registration statement filed under the Act or otherwise may be sold pursuant to Rule 144 without any restriction as to the number of securities as of a particular date that can then be immediately sold.

1.6.

Effect of Certain Events

1.6.1.

Effect of Merger, Consolidation, Etc .  At the option of the Holder, the sale, conveyance or disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, the effectuation by the Company of a transaction or series of related transactions in which more than 50% of the voting power of the Company is disposed of, or the consolidation, merger or other business combination of the Company with or into any other Person (as defined below) or Persons when the Company is not the survivor shall either:  (i) be deemed to be an Event of Default (as defined in Article III) pursuant to which the Company shall be required to pay to the Holder upon the consummation of and as a condition to such transaction an amount equal to the Default Amount (as defined in Article III) or (ii) be treated pursuant to Section 1.6.2 hereof.  “Person” shall mean any individual, corporation, limited liability company, partnership, association, trust or other entity or organization.

1.6.2.

Adjustment Due to Merger, Consolidation, Etc .  If, at any time when this Debt is issued and outstanding and prior to conversion of all of the Debt, there shall be any merger, consolidation, exchange of shares, recapitalization, reorganization, or other similar event, as a result of which shares of Stock of the Company shall be changed into the same or a different number of shares of another class or classes of stock or securities of the Company or another entity, or in case of any sale or conveyance of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company other than in connection with a plan of complete liquidation of the Company, then the Holder of this Debt shall thereafter have the right to receive upon conversion of this Debt, upon the basis and upon the terms and conditions specified herein and in lieu of the shares of Stock immediately theretofore issuable upon conversion, such stock, securities or assets which the Holder would have been entitled to receive in such transaction had this Debt been converted in full immediately prior to such transaction (without regard to any limitations on conversion set forth herein), and in any such case appropriate provisions shall be made with respect to the rights and interests of the Holder of this Debt to the end that the provisions hereof (including, without limitation, provisions for adjustment of the Conversion Price and of the number of shares issuable upon conversion of the Debt) shall thereafter be applicable, as nearly as may be practicable in relation to any securities or assets thereafter deliverable upon the conversion hereof.  The Company shall not affect any transaction described in this Section 1.6.2 unless (a) it first gives, to the extent practicable, thirty (30) days prior written notice (but in any event at least fifteen (15) days prior written notice) of the record date of the special meeting of shareholders to approve, or if there is no such record date, the consummation of, such merger, consolidation, exchange of shares, recapitalization, reorganization or other similar event or sale of assets (during which time the Holder shall be entitled to convert this Debt) and (b) the resulting successor or acquiring entity (if not the Company) assumes by written instrument the obligations of this Section 1.6.2.  The above provisions shall similarly apply to successive consolidations, mergers, sales, transfers or share exchanges.

1.6.3.

Adjustment Due to Distribution .  If the Company shall declare or make any distribution of its assets (or rights to acquire its assets) to holders of Stock as a dividend, stock repurchase, by way of return of capital or otherwise (including any dividend or distribution to the Company’s shareholders in cash or shares (or rights to acquire shares) of capital stock of a subsidiary (i.e., a spin-off)) (a



Page 5 of 10


“Distribution”), then the Holder of this Debt shall be entitled, upon any conversion of this Debt after the date of record for determining shareholders entitled to such Distribution, to receive the amount of such assets which would have been payable to the Holder with respect to the shares of Stock issuable upon such conversion had such Holder been the holder of such shares of Stock on the record date for the determination of shareholders entitled to such Distribution .

1.6.4.

Purchase Rights .  If, at any time when any Debt is outstanding, the Company issues any convertible securities or rights to purchase stock, warrants, securities or other property (the “Purchase Rights”) pro rata to the record holders of any class of Stock, then the Holder of this Debt will be entitled to acquire, upon the terms applicable to such Purchase Rights, the aggregate Purchase Rights which such Holder could have acquired if such Holder had held the number of shares of Stock acquirable upon complete conversion of this Debt (without regard to any limitations on conversion contained herein) immediately before the date on which a record is taken for the grant, issuance or sale of such Purchase Rights or, if no such record is taken, the date as of which the record holders of Stock are to be determined for the grant, issue or sale of such Purchase Rights.

1.6.5.

Notice of Adjustments .  Upon the occurrence of each adjustment or readjustment of the Conversion Price as a result of the events described in this Section 1.6, the Company, at its expense, shall promptly compute such adjustment or readjustment and prepare and furnish to the Holder of a certificate setting forth such adjustment or readjustment and showing in detail the facts upon which such adjustment or readjustment is based.  The Company shall, upon the written request at any time of the Holder, furnish to such Holder a like certificate setting forth (i) such adjustment or readjustment and (ii) the number of shares of Stock and the amount, if any, of other securities or property which at the time would be received upon conversion of the Debt.

1.7.

Status as Shareholder .  Upon submission of a Notice of Conversion by a Holder, (i) the shares covered thereby (other than the shares, if any, which cannot be issued because their issuance would exceed the authorized share amount) shall be deemed converted into shares of Stock and (ii) the Holder’s rights as a Holder of such converted portion of this Debt shall cease and terminate, excepting only the right to receive certificates for such shares of Stock and to any remedies provided herein or otherwise available at law or in equity to such Holder because of a failure by the Company to comply with the terms  of this Debt.

d.

Unless otherwise provided herein, capitalized terms used in this Agreement shall have the meaning given them in the Plan.

3)

1



Stock set forth in Section 1(c) above (the " Shares ") for cash or on a cashless basis (or other consideration as is acceptable to the Board of Directors of the Company, in their sole and absolute discretion) at the price per Share set forth in Section 1(d) above (the " Exercise Price "), such price being the Fair Market Value per share of Common Stock on the Date of Grant of the Option (or other consideration as is acceptable to the Board of Directors of the Company, in their sole and absolute discretion). The Option is not intended to qualify as an “incentive stock option” under Section 422 of the Code.

4)

Term. The Option shall expire, and all rights hereunder to purchase the Shares shall terminate, two (2) years from the date hereof, subject to earlier termination as set forth in Section 7. Nothing contained herein shall confer upon Optionee the right to the continuation of his or her employment by the Company or to interfere with the right of the Company to Terminate such employment or to increase or decrease the compensation of Optionee from the rate in existence at the date hereof.

5)

Vesting of Option.   Subject to the provisions of Sections 6) hereof, this Option shall become exercisable during the term of Optionee's employment according to terms deemed acceptable to the Board of Directors of Company in their sole and absolute discretion according to the schedule set forth in Section 1(e) above (the “Vesting Schedule”)

This Option shall not be assignable or transferable, except by will or by the laws of descent and distribution, and shall be exercisable only by Optionee during his or her lifetime, except as provided in Section 7 hereof.

7)

Exercise of Option Upon Termination of Employment.

a)

Termination of Vested Option Upon Termination of Employment .

i)

Termination . Upon the Optionee's Termination of Employment, other than by reason of death or Disability, the Optionee may, within 90 days from the date of such Termination of Employment, exercise all or any part of the Option as were exercisable at the date of Termination of Employment. In no event may the Option be exercised later than the expiration date described in Section 4.

ii)

Disability . Upon the Optionee's Disability Date, the Optionee may, within one year after such Disability Date, exercise all or a part of the Option, whether or not it was



2



exercisable on such Disability Date, but only to the extent not previously exercised. In no event, however, may the Option be exercised later than the expiration date described in Section 4.

iii)

Death . In the event of the death of the Optionee while employed by the Company, the Optionee's Beneficiary shall be entitled to exercise all or any part of the Option that was vested at the date of the Optionee's death until the initial expiration date of such Option determined pursuant to Section 4. Notwithstanding the above, if the Optionee at the time of death had been an employee of the Company for a period of one (1) year, 50% of the Optionee's unvested Option will become vested and subject to exercise as stated above and, if the Optionee at the time of death had been an employee of the Company for a period of two (2) years, all of the Optionee's unvested Option will become vested and subject to exercise as stated above and shall expire on the date of expiration of the Option determined pursuant to Section 4.

b)

Termination of Unvested Option Upon Termination of Employment. Except as provided in Sections 6(a)(ii) and 6(a)(iii), to the extent all or any part of the Option was not exercisable as of the date of Termination of Employment, the unexercisable portion of the Option shall expire at the date of such Termination of Employment.

c)

Change of Control . Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 4 or this Section 7, if one of the events specified in Section 7.05(d)(i), (ii), (iii) or (iv) of the Plan occurs, the provisions of such Section 7.05(d) shall determine when the Option becomes exercisable, when it may be exercised and when it expires.

8)

No Rights as Shareholder.   Optionee shall have no rights as a shareholder with respect to the Shares covered by any installment of this Option until the effective date of issuance of the Shares following exercise of this Option, and no adjustment will be made for dividends or other rights for which the record date is prior to the date such stock certificate or certificates are issued.

9)

Plan Provisions Control Option Terms; Modifications . The Option is granted pursuant and subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan, the provisions of which are incorporated herein by reference. If any provision of this Agreement conflicts with any of the terms in the Plan as constituted on the Date of Grant, the terms of the Plan as constituted on the Date of Grant shall control. Except as provided in Sections 7.03 and 7.05 of the Plan, the Option shall not be modified after the Date of Grant except by express written agreement between the Company and the Optionee; provided, however, that any such modification (a) shall not be inconsistent with the terms of the Plan, and (b) shall be approved by the Committee. In addition, the repricing of any Option granted under this Plan shall require shareholder approval.



3



10)

Limitations on Transfer . The Option may not be assigned or transferred other than by will, by the laws of descent and distribution or pursuant to a domestic relations order.

11)

Taxes . The Company shall be entitled to withhold (or secure payment from the Optionee in lieu of withholding) the amount of any withholding or other tax required by law to be withheld or paid by the Company with respect to any shares of Common Stock issuable under this Agreement, and the Company may defer issuance of shares of Common Stock upon the exercise of the Option unless the Company is indemnified to its satisfaction against any liability for any such tax. The amount of such withholding or tax payment shall be determined by the Committee or its delegate and shall be payable by the Optionee at such time as the Committee determines. The Optionee may satisfy his or her tax withholding obligation by (a) having cash withheld from the Optionee's salary or other compensation payable by the Company, (b) the payment of cash to the Company, (c) the payment in shares of Common Stock already owned by the Optionee valued at Fair Market Value, and/or (d) the withholding from the Option, at the appropriate time, of a number of shares of Common Stock sufficient, based upon the Fair Market Value of such shares of Common Stock, to satisfy such tax withholding requirements. The Committee shall be authorized, in its sole and absolute discretion, to establish such rules and procedures relating to any such withholding methods as it deems necessary or appropriate, including, without limitation, rules and procedures relating to elections to have shares of Common Stock withheld upon exercise of the Option to meet such withholding obligations.

12)

No Exercise in Violation of Law . Notwithstanding any of the provisions of this Agreement, the Optionee hereby agrees that he or she will not exercise the Option granted hereby, and that the Company will not be obligated to issue any shares of Common Stock to the Optionee hereunder, if the exercise thereof or the issuance of such shares of Common Stock shall constitute a violation by the Optionee or the Company of any provision of any law or regulation of any governmental authority. Any determination in this connection by the Committee shall be final, binding and conclusive.

13)

Securities Law Compliance . The Optionee agrees, for the Optionee and his or her Beneficiaries, with respect to all shares of Common Stock acquired pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Plan and the Option (or any other shares of Common Stock issued pursuant to a stock dividend or stock split thereon or any securities issued in lieu thereof or in substitution or exchange therefor), that the Optionee and his or her Beneficiaries will not sell or otherwise dispose of these shares except pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”), or except in a transaction that, in the opinion of counsel for the Company, is exempt from registration under the Act. Further, the Company shall not be required to sell or issue any shares under the Option if, in the opinion of the Company, (a) the issuance of such shares would constitute a violation by the Optionee or the Company of any applicable law or regulation of any government authority or



4



(b) the consent or approval of any governmental body is necessary or desirable as condition of, or in connection with, the issuance of such shares.

14)

Piggy Back Registration Rights . Commencing 6 months from the date of this Agreement, Optionee will have piggyback registration rights, subject to certain restrictions. If at any time the Company prepares and files one or more registration statements under the Act with respect to a public offering of its equity securities, or of any of its securities held by its security holders (other than a registration statement on Forms S-4, S-8, or similar form) the Company will include in the registration statement information as is required, to permit a public offering of the Option Shares in this Agreement. However, if, in the written opinion of the managing underwriter (if any, for such offering) or the Company, the inclusion of Option Shares, when added to the securities being registered by the Company or its selling security holders, would exceed the maximum amount of securities that could be marketed without otherwise materially and adversely affecting the entire offering, then the Company may exclude shares required to be registered so that the total number of securities to be registered is within the maximum number of shares that, in the opinion of the managing underwriter or Company, may be marketed without otherwise materially and adversely affecting the entire offering. The Company will bear all fees and expenses, other than the fees and expenses of Optionee's counsel, incurred in the preparation and filing of a registration statement and related state registrations, to the extent permitted by applicable law, and the furnishing of copies of the preliminary and final prospectus. In connection with filing of a registration statement, Optionee may be required to furnish certain information and must agree to indemnify the Company against any liabilities or damages, including liabilities arising under the Act, with respect to any information provided.

15)

Investment Intent; Restrictive Legend .

a)

Optionee represents and agrees that if Optionee exercises this Option in whole or in part, Optionee will in each case acquire the Shares upon such exercise for the purpose of investment and not with a view to, or for resale in connection with, any distribution thereof; and that upon such exercise of this Option in whole or in part, Optionee (or any person or persons entitled to exercise this Option under the provisions of Section 7 hereof) shall furnish to the Company a written statement to such effect, satisfactory to the Company in form and substance. If the Shares represented by this Option are registered under the Securities Act, either before or after the exercise of this Option in whole or in part, the Optionee shall be relieved of the foregoing investment representation and agreement and shall not be required to furnish the Company with the foregoing written statement

b)

Optionee further represents that Optionee has had access to the financial statements or books and records of the Company, has had the opportunity to ask questions of the



5



Company concerning its business, operations and financial condition, and to obtain additional information reasonably necessary to verify the accuracy of such information

c)

Each certificate representing the Shares and any other securities issued in respect of the Shares upon any stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization, merger, consolidation or similar event, shall be stamped or otherwise imprinted with a legend in substantially the following form (in addition to any legend required under applicable state securities laws):

“THE SHARES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE BEEN ACQUIRED FOR INVESTMENT AND HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED. SUCH SHARES MAY NOT BE SOLD, TRANSFERRED OR PLEDGED IN THE ABSENCE OF SUCH REGISTRATION OR UNLESS THE CORPORATION RECEIVES AN OPINION OF COUNSEL REASONABLY ACCEPTABLE TO IT STATING THAT SUCH SALE OR TRANSFER IS EXEMPT FROM THE REGISTRATION AND PROSPECTUS DELIVERY REQUIREMENTS OF SAID ACT.”

“THE SHARES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE MAY BE TRANSFERRED ONLY IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE TERMS OF AGREEMENTS BETWEEN THE CORPORATION AND THE ORIGINAL STOCKHOLDER, COPIES OF WHICH ARE ON FILE WITH THE SECRETARY OF THE CORPORATION.”

The Optionee consents to the Company making a notation on its records and giving instructions to any transfer agent of the Restricted Securities in order to implement the restrictions on transfer established in this Section 15.

16)

Adjustments . The existence of the Option shall not affect in any way the right or power of the Company or its directors or shareholders to make or authorize any or all adjustments, recapitalizations, reorganizations, or other changes in the Company's capital structure or its business, or any merger or consolidation of the Company, or any issuance of bonds, debentures, preferred stock or prior preference stock ahead of or affecting the Common Stock or the rights thereof, or dissolution or liquidation of the Company, or any sale or transfer of all or any part of its assets or business, or any other corporate act or proceeding, whether of a similar character or otherwise.

17)

Notices .  Any notice required to be given pursuant to this Option or the Plan shall be in writing and shall be deemed to be delivered upon receipt or, in the case of notices by the Company, five (5) days after deposit in the U.S. mail, postage prepaid, addressed to Optionee at the address provided below:

Page 5 of 13

2014 SOP 123113




Section 6.02

TERMS OF OPTIONS. Options granted under the Plan shall be subject to the following terms and conditions and shall be in such form and contain such additional terms and conditions, not inconsistent with the terms of the Plan, as the Committee shall deem desirable:

(a)

Option Price. The option price per share of Common Stock purchasable under an Option shall be determined by the Committee at the time of grant but shall not be less than the Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock on the Date of Grant; provided, however, that, except as required by Rule 16b-3 with respect to Options granted to persons subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act, no amendment of an Option shall be deemed to be the grant of a new Option for purposes of this Section 6.02(a). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the option price per share of Common Stock of an Option shall never be less than par value per share.

(b)

Option Term. The term of each Option shall be fixed by the Committee, but no Option shall be exercisable more than ten years after the Date of Grant.

(c)

Exercisability. An Option Agreement with respect to Options may contain such performance targets, waiting periods, exercise dates and restrictions on exercise (including, but not limited to, a requirement that an Option is exercisable in periodic installments), and restrictions on transfer of the underlying shares of Common Stock, if any, as may be determined by the Committee at the time of grant. To the extent not exercised, installments shall cumulate and be exercisable, in whole or in part, at any time after becoming exercisable, subject to the limitations set forth in Sections 6.02(b), (f), (g) and (h).

(d)

Method of Exercise. Subject to whatever installment exercise and waiting period provisions that apply under Section 6.02(c) and subject to Sections 6.02(b), (f), (g) and (h), Options may be exercised in whole or in part at any time during the term of the Option, by giving written notice of exercise to the Company specifying the number of shares of Common Stock to be purchased. Such notice shall be accompanied by payment in full of the purchase price in such form as the Committee may accept.  If and to the extent the Committee determines in its sole and absolute discretion at or after grant, payment in full or in part may also be made in the form of shares of Common Stock already owned by the Participant (and for which the Participant has good title, free and clear of any liens or encumbrances) based on the Fair Market Value of the shares of Common Stock on the date the Option is exercised; provided, however, that any already owned Common Stock used for payment must have been held by the Participant for at least six months. No Common Stock shall be issued on exercise of an Option until payment, as provided herein, therefor has been made. A Participant shall generally have the right to dividends or other rights of a stockholder with respect to Common Stock subject to the Option only when certificates for shares of Common Stock are issued to the Participant.



Page 6 of 13

2014 SOP 123113




(e)

Non-Transferability of Options . No Option shall be transferable by the Participant otherwise than by will, by the laws of descent and distribution, or pursuant to a domestic relations order.

(f)

Acceleration or Extension of Exercise Time. The Committee, in its sole and absolute discretion, shall have the right (but shall not in any case be obligated) to permit purchase of Common Stock subject to any Option granted to a Participant prior to the time such Option would otherwise become exercisable under the terms of the Option Agreement. In addition, the Committee, in its sole and absolute discretion, shall have the right (but shall not in any case be obligated) to permit any Option granted to a Participant to be exercised after the day the Option would otherwise expire, subject, however, to the limitation set forth in Section 6.02(b).

(g)

Exercise of Options Upon Termination of Employment. The following provisions apply to Options granted to Employee Participants:

(i)

 Exercise of Vested Options Upon Termination of Employment.

1)

Termination . Unless the Committee, in its sole and absolute discretion, provides for a shorter or longer period of time in an Option Agreement or a longer period of time in accordance with Section 6.02(f), upon an Employee Participant's Termination of Employment other than by reason of death or Disability, the Employee Participant may, within 90 days from the date of such Termination of Employment, exercise all or any part of his or her Options as were exercisable at the date of Termination of Employment. In no event, however, may any Option be exercised later than the date determined pursuant to Section 6.02(b).

2)

Disability . Unless the Committee, in its sole and absolute discretion, provides for a shorter or longer period of time in an Option Agreement or a longer period of time in accordance with Section 6.02(f), upon an Employee Participant's Disability Date, the Employee Participant may, within one year after the Disability Date, exercise all or a part of his or her Options, whether or not such Option was exercisable on the Disability Date, but only to the extent not previously exercised. In no event, however, may any Option be exercised later than the date determined pursuant to Section 6.02(b).

3)

Death . Unless the Committee, in its sole and absolute discretion, provides for a shorter period of time in an Option Agreement, in the event of the death of an Employee Participant while employed by the Company, the Employee Participant's Beneficiary shall be entitled to exercise any Options that were vested at the date of the Employee Participant's death until the initial expiration date of such Option determined pursuant to Section 6.02(b).



Page 7 of 13

2014 SOP 123113




Notwithstanding the above, if the Employee Participant at the time of death had been an employee of the Company for a period of one (1) year, 50% of the Employee Participant's unvested Option would become vested and subject to exercise as stated above and if the Employee Participant at the time of death had been an employee of the Company for a period of two (2) years, all of the Employee Participant's unvested Options would become vested and subject to exercise as stated above and shall expire on the date of expiration of the Option determined pursuant to Section 6.02(b).

(ii)

Expiration of Unvested Options Upon Termination of Employment. Subject to Sections 6.02(f) and 6.02(g)(i)(2) and (3), to the extent all or any part of an Option granted to an Employee Participant was not exercisable as of the date of Termination of  Employment, such right shall expire at the date of such Termination of Employment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Committee, in its sole and absolute discretion and under such terms as it deems appropriate, may permit an Employee Participant to continue to accrue service with respect to the right to exercise his or her Options.

(h)

Exercise of Options Upon Termination of Service. Unless the Committee, in its sole and absolute discretion, provides for a shorter or longer period of time in an Option Agreement or a longer period of time in accordance with Section 6.02(f), if a Non-Employee Director's service with the Company terminates for any reason or if such person ceases to be a Non-Employee Director, such Option may be exercised to the extent it was exercisable on the date of such termination of service until the expiration of the stated term of the Option, but only to the extent it was not previously exercised.

Article VII.

TERMS APPLICABLE TO ALL OPTIONS GRANTED UNDER THE PLAN

Section 7.01

PLAN PROVISIONS CONTROL OPTION TERMS. The terms of the Plan shall govern all Options granted under the Plan, and in no event shall the Committee have the power to grant to a Participant any Option under the Plan that is contrary to any provisions of the Plan. If any provision of any Option granted under the Plan conflicts with any of the terms in the Plan as constituted on the Date of Grant of such Option, the terms in the Plan as constituted on the Date of Grant of such Option shall control.

Section 7.02

OPTION AGREEMENT. No person shall have any rights under any Option granted under the Plan unless and until the Company and the Participant to whom such Option shall have been granted shall have executed and delivered an Option Agreement authorized by the Committee expressly granting the Option to such person and containing provisions setting forth the terms of the Option. If there is any conflict between the provisions of an Option Agreement and the terms of the Plan, the terms of the Plan shall control.



Page 8 of 13

2014 SOP 123113




Section 7.03

MODIFICATION OF OPTION AFTER GRANT. Except as provided by the Committee, in its sole and absolute discretion, in the Option Agreement or as provided in Section 7.05, no Option granted under the Plan to a Participant may be modified (unless such modification does not materially decrease the value of the Option) after the Date of Grant except by express written agreement between the Company and the Participant, provided that any such change (a) shall not be inconsistent with the terms of the Plan, and (b) shall be approved by the Committee. In addition, the repricing of any Option granted under this Plan shall require shareholder approval.

Section 7.04

TAXES. The Company shall be entitled, if the Committee deems it necessary or desirable, to withhold (or secure payment from the Participant in lieu of withholding) the amount of any withholding or other tax required by law to be withheld or paid by the Company with respect to any Common Stock issuable under such Participant's Option, and the Company may defer issuance of Common Stock upon the grant or exercise of an Option unless indemnified to its satisfaction against any liability for any such tax. The amount of such withholding or tax payment shall be determined by the Committee or its delegate and shall be payable by the Participant at such time as the Committee determines. A Participant shall be permitted to satisfy his or her tax or withholding obligation by (a) having cash withheld from the Participant's salary or other compensation payable by the Company, (b) the payment of cash by the Participant to the Company, (c) the payment in shares of Common Stock already owned by the Participant valued at Fair Market Value, and/or (d) the withholding from the Option, at the appropriate time, of a number of shares of Common Stock sufficient, based upon the Fair Market Value of such Common Stock, to satisfy such tax or withholding requirements. The Committee shall be authorized, in its sole and absolute discretion, to establish rules and procedures relating to any such withholding methods it deems necessary or appropriate (including, without limitation, rules and procedures relating to elections by Participants who are subject to the provisions of Section 16 of the Exchange Act to have shares of Common Stock withheld from an Award to meet those withholding obligations).

Section 7.05

 ADJUSTMENTS TO REFLECT CAPITAL CHANGES; CHANGE IN CONTROL.

(a)

Recapitalization . The number and kind of shares subject to outstanding Options, the purchase price or exercise price of such Options, the limit set forth in the last sentence of Section 5.01 of the Plan, and the number and kind of shares available for Options subsequently granted under the Plan shall be appropriately adjusted to reflect any stock dividend, stock split, combination or exchange of shares, merger, consolidation or other change in capitalization with a similar substantive effect upon the Plan or the Options granted under the Plan. The Committee shall have the power and sole and absolute discretion to determine the nature and amount of the adjustment to be made in each case.

(b)

Sale or Reorganization . After any reorganization, merger, or consolidation in which the



Page 9 of 13

2014 SOP 123113




Company is the surviving entity, each Participant shall, at no additional cost, be entitled upon the exercise of an Option outstanding prior to such event to receive (subject to any required action by stockholders), in lieu of the number of shares of Common Stock receivable on exercise pursuant to such Option, the number and class of shares of stock or other securities to which such Participant would have been entitled pursuant to the terms of the reorganization, merger, or consolidation if, at the time of such reorganization, merger, or consolidation, such Participant had been the holder of record of a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the number of shares of Common Stock receivable on exercise pursuant to such Option. Comparable rights shall accrue to each Participant in the event of successive reorganizations, mergers, or consolidations of the character described above.

(c)

Options to Purchase Stock of Acquired Companies . After any reorganization, merger, or consolidation in which the Company shall be a surviving entity, the Committee may grant substituted Options under the provisions of the Plan, replacing old options granted under a plan of another party to the reorganization, merger, or consolidation whose stock subject to the old options may no longer be issued following such reorganization, merger, or consolidation. The foregoing adjustments and manner of application of the foregoing provisions shall be determined by the Committee in its sole and absolute discretion. Any such adjustments may provide for the elimination of any fractional shares of Common Stock that might otherwise become subject to any Options.

(d)

Changes in Control. (i) Upon the dissolution or liquidation of the Company, (ii) upon a reorganization, merger, or consolidation in which the Company is not the surviving corporation, (iii) upon the sale of substantially all of the property or assets of the Company to another corporation, or (iv) upon the sale of at least 50% or more of the voting stock of the Company through a tender offer or otherwise to a party or an affiliated group of parties, then the Plan and the Options issued thereunder shall terminate, unless provisions are made in connection with such transaction for the assumption of Options theretofore granted, or for the substitution for such Options of new options of the successor corporation or a parent or subsidiary thereof, with appropriate adjustment as to the number and kinds of shares and the per share exercise prices. In the event such Options shall be terminated, all outstanding Options shall be exercisable in full for at least 30 days prior to such termination date, whether or not exercisable during such period, subject, however, to the limitation set forth in Section 6.02(b). The Committee shall determine the date on which Options may become exercisable pursuant to this Section 7.05(d).

Section 7.06

SURRENDER OF OPTIONS. Any Option granted to a Participant under the Plan may be surrendered to the Company for cancellation on such terms as the Committee and holder approve.



Page 10 of 13

2014 SOP 123113




Section 7.07

NO RIGHT TO OPTION; NO RIGHT TO EMPLOYMENT. No director, employee or other person shall have any claim or right to be granted an Option. Neither the Plan nor any action taken hereunder shall be construed as giving any employee any right to be retained in the employ of the Company.

Section 7.08

OPTIONS NOT INCLUDABLE FOR BENEFIT PURPOSES. Income recognized by a Participant pursuant to the provisions of the Plan shall not be included in the determination of benefits under any employee pension benefit plan (as such term is defined in Section 3(2) of ERISA) or group insurance or other benefit plans applicable to the Participant that are maintained by the Company, except as may be provided under the terms of such plans or determined by resolution of the Board.

Section 7.09

Section 7.11

COMPLIANCE WITH RULE 16b-3 AND SECTION 162(m). It is intended that the Plan be applied and administered in compliance with Rule 16b-3 and with Section 162(m). If any provision of the Plan would be in violation of Section 162(m) if applied as written, such provision shall not have effect as written and shall be given effect so as to comply with Section 162(m) as determined by the Committee in its sole and absolute discretion. The Board is authorized to amend the Plan and the Committee is authorized to make any such modifications to Option Agreements to comply with Rule 16b-3 and Section 162(m), as they may be amended from time to time, and to make any other such amendments or modifications deemed necessary or appropriate to better accomplish the purposes of the Plan in light of any amendments made to Rule 16b-3 and Section 162(m). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Board may amend the Plan so that it (or certain of its provisions) no longer comply with either or both of Rule 16b-3 or Section 162(m) if the Board specifically determines that such compliance is no longer desired and the Committee may grant Options that do not comply with Rule 16b-3 and/or Section 162(m) if the Committee determines, in its sole and absolute discretion, that it is in the interest of the Company to do so.
