Global Trek Xploration (our wholly-owned subsidiary we refer to as “GTX California”) offers a GPS and cellular location platform that enables subscribers to track in real time the whereabouts of people, pets or high valued assets through a miniaturized transceiver module, wireless connectivity gateway, middleware and viewing portal. On March 18, 2010, GTX California entered into a four-year agreement with Aetrex Worldwide, Inc. (“Aetrex”) pursuant to which we granted Aetrex the licensing rights to our end to end patented two way GPS platform and embed our GPS tracking device into certain footwear products manufactured and sold by Aetrex. Aetrex Worldwide, Inc. is a global leader in pedorthic footwear and foot orthotics. Aetrex has certain exclusive and non-exclusive rights under this agreement. In order to retain its exclusive rights, Aetrex must purchase 156,000 devices from us over a four-year period commencing on the date that we ship to Aetrex the first production order of devices as follows: 6,000 GPS tracking devices in the first year, 25,000 devices during the second year, 50,000 during the third year, and 75,000 devices during the fourth year. On June 30, 2010, Aetrex issued its first purchase order for 3,000 devices, which we expect to ship to Aetrex in the second quarter of 2011. The end-users of the GPS-enabled Aetrex shoe, expected to predominately consist of seniors afflicted with dementia, will be required to pay us a monthly service fee, a portion of which will be shared with Aetrex. The Aetrex shoe is scheduled to be released in the second quarter of 2011.

Our LOCiMOBILE, Inc. subsidiary has developed, and launched applications for the iPhone, iPad, Android, BlackBerry, Samsung bada and other GPS enabled handsets and tablets that permit authorized users to locate and track the holder of the handset. Our 17 Apps, that run on six different platforms (including iPhone, Blackberry and Google Android), have experienced over 900,000 downloads in 109 countries with two of our Apps in the iTunes top 25 social networking category, reaching number seven on the downloads list, number two on the highest grossing list and iTunes “What’s Hot” list. Continuing with our platform expansion, during July 2010 we signed a binding contract with Samsung Electronics to develop two GPS tracking Apps for Samsung’s new mobile operating system and platform – known as “bada.” There are currently several new Apps in development and scheduled for release in the second quarter of 2011. These include a series of applications that will be geared for the enterprise user, by offering “private label” versions of our popular consumer apps to companies looking for a more personalized and secure method of keeping track of their employees. In addition, the Company will expand into proximity marketing and begin to leverage its global user base. Our roadmap also consists of further development to run on Samsung’s new bada platform, additional applications for the iPad and other tablets and TV’s, and more applications for the iPhone, BlackBerry and Google Android operating systems, all of which are expected to further contribute to our user base community, the value of our brand, and revenue increases from App sales, monthly subscriptions and advertising. LOCiMOBILE has experienced significant growth with year over year increases of users and revenues. During the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, our Apps went from 25,000 users to 800,000 users and generated revenues of approximately $328,000 and $10,000, respectively.

Under Rule 13d-3, a beneficial owner of a security includes any person who, directly or indirectly, through any contract, arrangement, understanding, relationship, or otherwise has or shares: (i) voting power, which includes the power to vote, or to direct the voting of shares; and (ii) investment power, which includes the power to dispose or direct the disposition of shares. Certain shares may be deemed to be beneficially owned by more than one person (if, for example, persons share the power to vote or the power to dispose of the shares). In addition, shares are deemed to be beneficially owned by a person if the person has the right to acquire the shares (for example, upon exercise of an option) within 60 days of the date as of which the information is provided. In computing the percentage ownership of any person, the amount of shares outstanding is deemed to include the amount of shares beneficially owned by such person (and only such person) by reason of these acquisition rights. As a result, the percentage of outstanding shares of any person as shown in this table does not necessarily reflect the person's actual ownership or voting power with respect to the number of shares of common stock actually outstanding.
