The enclosed Proxy is solicited by and on behalf of the board of directors of the Company, with the cost of solicitation borne by the Company. Directors and officers of the Company may make solicitation. Solicitation may be made by use of the mails, by telephone, facsimile and personal interview. The Company does not expect to pay any compensation for the solicitation of proxies, except to brokers, nominees and similar record holders for reasonable expenses in mailing paroxy materials to beneficial owners.

 

If the enclosed Proxy is duly executed and received in time for the Annual Meeting, it is the intention of the persons named in the Proxy to vote the shares represented by the Proxy FOR the three nominees listed in this Proxy Statement and FOR the other items listed in the Proxy, unless otherwise directed. Any proxy given by a shareholder may be revoked before its exercise by notice to the Company in writing, by a subsequently dated proxy, or at the Annual Meeting prior to the taking of the shareholder vote. The shares represented by properly executed, unrevoked proxies will be voted in accordance with the specifications in the Proxy. Stockholders have one vote for each share of Common Stock held. Stockholders are not entitled to cumulate their votes.

Mr. Thomas joined the U.K. Foreign Office in 1968 and first spent three years in London dealing with international maritime law and continental shelf delimitation of all British territories overseas.

Composition of the Compensation Committee

The Company does not have a formal compensation committee. The Company’s board of directors reviews the cash compensation, performance and overall compensation package of each executive officer, including the Named Executive Officers on an annual basis.

 

Report on Executive Compensation

The compensation policies are designed to support the Company’s strategic objectives, ensure that incentive programs are designed to motivate senior managers to achieve or exceed corporate objectives and to enhance shareholder value.

 

In determining actual compensation levels, the Committee considers the total program, rather than any single element in isolation. Total compensation levels are set to reflect both the marketplace (to ensure competitiveness) and the responsibility of each position (to ensure internal equity).

 

The Company’s executive compensation program has the following objectives:

  • to attract, retain and motivate qualified executives;
  • to be competitive and is adjusted for realities of the market;
  • to provide incentives to executives to maximize productivity and enhance enterprise value by aligning the interests of the executives with those of the stockholders;
  • to foster teamwork and entrepreneurial spirit;

 

Stock Option Plan

The stock-based compensation program provides stock options that create a direct link between executive rewards and enhanced shareholder value since the full benefit of this compensation element cannot be realized unless stock appreciation occurs over a number of years.

Briefly describe what measures the board takes to orient new directors regarding

No formal orientation program has been developed by the Board. However, new directors have the opportunity to meet with and participate in work sessions with senior management to obtain insight into the operations of the Company. It is expected that new directors will generally have been executives with extensive business or other senior level experience and have directorship responsibilities on other public and private company boards and institutions. Orientation for these individuals is provided through a review of past Board of Director materials and other private and public documents concerning the Company. Given the level of experience of those joining the Board and the relatively short history of the Company, a formal orientation and education programme has not been viewed as necessary.

Briefly describe what measures, if any, the board takes to provide continuing education for its directors. If the board does not provide continuing education, describe how the board ensures that its directors maintain the skill and knowledge necessary to meet their obligations as directors.

The Company has no formal policy of providing professional development courses to Board members, though educational sessions are occasionally presented to the Board by the Company’s outside advisors.

The Code was adopted to further strengthen the Company’s internal compliance program. The Code addresses among other things, honesty and integrity, fair dealing, conflicts of interest, compliance with laws, regulations and policies, including disclosure requirements under the federal securities laws, and administration of the code. A copy of our Code of Ethics is available upon request at no charge to any shareholder.

   
 -12- 

 

Describe how the board monitors compliance with its code, or if the board does not monitor compliance, explain whether and how the board satisfies itself regarding compliance with its code;

The Board is ultimately responsible for the implementation and administration of the Code of Business Conduct and Ethics and, given the nature and size of the Company, the Board is of the view that it can effectively monitor the day-to-day implementation and administration of the Code.

Provide a cross-reference to any material change report filed since the beginning of the issuer’s most recently completed financial year that pertains to any conduct of a director or executive officer that constitutes a departure from the code.

There are no such reports.

Describe any steps the board takes to ensure directors exercise independent judgment in considering transactions and agreements in respect of which a director or executive officer has a material interest.

A director or officer of the Company must declare the nature of any interest that he or she has in a material contract, whether made or proposed, with the Company. Following such a declaration, Board members will abstain from voting on any resolution in which they may have a potential conflict of interest.

Describe any other steps the board takes to encourage and promote a culture of ethical business conduct.

If the board has a compensation committee, describe the responsibilities, powers and operation of the compensation committee.

The mandate of the Compensation Committee is to establish and monitor the Company’s policies for attracting, retaining, developing and motivating senior employees. The compensation policies are designed to support the Company’s strategic objectives, ensure that incentive programs are designed to motivate senior managers to achieve or exceed corporate objectives and to enhance shareholder value and to ensure that there is reasonable consistency in the application of the compensation policies. The Company’s responsibilities include reviewing annually the performance of the Chief Executive Officer (or more frequently if deemed necessary by the Compensation Committee), setting the Chief Executive Officer’s compensation and, in consultation with the Chief Executive Officer, establishing his personal objectives, reviewing the performance and approving the compensation of executive officers of the Company on the recommendation of the Chief Executive Officer, establishing incentive compensation programmes and monitoring their effectiveness and developing and documenting the compensation policy and philosophy of the Company for approval by the Board of Directors.

If a compensation consultant or advisor has, at any time since the beginning of the issuer’s most recently completed financial year, been retained to assist in determining compensation for any of the issuer’s directors and officers, disclose the identity of the consultant or advisor and briefly summarize the mandate for which they have been retained.

1.If the shareholder wishes to attend the Meeting to vote on the resolutions in person, please register your attendance with the Company's scrutineers at the Meeting.

 

2.If the shareholder's securities are held by an intermediary (e.g. a broker) and the shareholder wishes to attend the Meeting to vote on the resolutions, please insert the shareholder's name in the blank space provided, do not indicate a voting choice by any resolution, sign and date and return the Proxy in accordance with the instructions provided by the intermediary. Please contact the intermediary if there are any questions. At the Meeting a vote will be taken on each of the resolutions as set out on this Proxy and the shareholder's vote will be counted at that time.

 

3.If the shareholder cannot attend the Meeting but wishes to vote on the resolutions, the shareholder can appoint another person, who need not be a shareholder of the Company, to vote according to the shareholder's instructions. To appoint someone other than the nominees named by management, please insert your appointed proxy holder’s name in the space provided, sign and date and return the Proxy. Where no choice on a resolution is specified by the shareholder, this Proxy confers discretionary authority upon the shareholder's appointed proxy holder to vote for or against or withhold vote with respect to that resolution, provided that with respect to a resolution relating to a director nominee or auditor, the proxy holder only has the discretion to vote or not vote for such nominee.

 

4.If the shareholder cannot attend the Meeting but wishes to vote on the resolutions and to appoint one of the nominees named by management as proxy holder, please leave the wording appointing a nominee as shown, sign and date and return the Proxy.

5.The securities represented by this Proxy will be voted or withheld from voting in accordance with the instructions of the shareholder on any ballot of a resolution that may be called for and, if the shareholder specifies a choice with respect to any matter to be acted upon, the securities will be voted accordingly. With respect to any amendments or variations in any of the resolutions shown on the Proxy, or matters which may properly come before the Meeting, the securities will be voted by the nominee appointed as the proxy holder, in its sole discretion, sees fit.

 

6.If the shareholder votes by completing and returning the Proxy, the shareholder may still attend the Meeting and vote in person should the shareholder later decide to do so. To vote in person at the Meeting, the shareholder must revoke the Proxy in writing as set forth in the Information Circular.

 

7.This Proxy is not valid unless it is dated and signed by the shareholder or by the shareholder's attorney duly authorized by the shareholder in writing, or, in the case of a corporation, by its duly authorized officer or attorney for the corporation. If an attorney executes the Proxy for an individual shareholder or joint shareholders or by an officer or an attorney of a corporate shareholder, the instrument so empowering the officer or the attorney, as the case may be, or a notarial copy thereof, must accompany the Proxy.

 

8.To be valid, this Proxy, duly dated and signed, must arrive at the office of the Transfer Agent of the Company, not less than 48 hours (excluding Saturdays, Sundays and holidays) before the time for holding the Meeting, or delivered to the Chairman of the Meeting prior to the commencement of the Meeting.
