No vote or other action by our stockholders is requested or required in response to this Information Statement. Proxies are not being solicited. References throughout this Information Statement to “we”, “us” and “our” are to the Company.
This Amendment No. 1 on Schedule 14F-1/A (this “First Amendment”) amends the Schedule 14F-1 originally filed by PureRay Corporation, a Washington corporation (formerly North American Natural Gas, Inc.) (the “Company”), with the Securities and Exchange Commission on July 31, 2008 (the “Original Schedule 14F-1”) to make certain corrections regarding the compensation of the Company’s directors and executive officers and certain related party transactions on pages 9 and 10 of the Original Schedule 14F-1. This First Amendment does not amend or modify any other information set forth in the Original Schedule 14F-1, which has been restated in its entirety in this First Amendment.
INTRODUCTION
As previously reported in the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on July 31, 2008 (the “PureRay Acquisition Form 8-K”), on July 24, 2008, the Company, PureRay Acquisition Inc., a corporation formed under the laws of Canada (“PureRay Acquisition Inc.”) and a wholly-owned subsidiary of PureRay Holdings ULC, an unlimited liability corporation formed under the laws of the Province of Alberta and a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (“PureRay Holdings”), PureRay Corporation, a corporation formed under the laws of Canada (“PureRay”), and Mickael Joasil, Derek Blackburn, F.W.F Robinson, Frank O’Dea, Kairos Partners, LLC (“Kairos”), Thomas J. Broeski, Raj Kurichh, Megs Padiachy, Ramlia Padiachy, Patrick Pierre and Matthew Sicoli (together, the “ PureRay Shareholders”), entered into a Share Purchase Agreement (the “Share Purchase Agreement”), whereby PureRay Acquisition acquired (the “Acquisition”) all of the outstanding shares of PureRay (the “PureRay Shares) from the PureRay Shareholders. The Acquisition was completed on July 24, 2008.
Pursuant to the terms of the Share Purchase Agreement, PureRay Acquisition acquired the PureRay Shares for an amount equal to US$35,855,000 , which the parties agreed to be the fair market value of the PureRay Shares. The purchase price was paid by the issuance of one exchangeable share, without par value, of PureRay Acquisition (each, an “Exchangeable Share”) for each PureRay Share acquired, for a total of 35,855,000 Exchangeable Shares. For information about the Exchangeable Shares, see Item 1.01 of the PureRay Acquisition Form 8-K, which information is incorporated herein by reference.
In connection with the Share Purchase Agreement, on July 24, 2008, the Company, PureRay Holdings, PureRay Acquisition and Derek Blackburn, as trustee (the “Trustee”), entered into a Voting and Exchange Trust Agreement (the “Exchange Agreement”). Pursuant to the Exchange Agreement, the Company issued shares of preferred stock of the Company, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Special Voting Stock”), in a ratio of a quarter (1/4) share of Special Voting Stock for each Exchangeable Share issued in connection with the Acquisition (for a total of 8,963,750 shares of Special Voting Stock) to the Trustee to be held for and on behalf of the registered holders of the Exchangeable Shares. The Special Voting Stock was issued in connection with the Acquisition to provide holders of the Exchangeable Shares with the right to vote at meetings of the shareholders of the Company or in connection with a consent of the shareholders of the Company.
Each share of Special Voting Stock issued entitles the holder of record to four votes, equal to four shares of the Company’s Common Stock, and each quarter (1/4) share of Special Voting Stock entitles the holder of record to one vote, equal to one share of the Company’s Common Stock, at a meeting or in connection with a consent of the shareholders of the Company (the “Voting Rights”). Each holder of Exchangeable Shares is entitled to instruct the Trustee to cast and exercise one of the votes comprising the Voting Rights for each Exchangeable Share held as of the applicable record date. To the extent that no instructions are received from a holder of Exchangeable Shares, the Trustee may not exercise the Voting Rights with respect to such Exchangeable Shares. For information about the Exchange Agreement and Special Voting Stock, see Item 1.01 of the PureRay Acquisition Form 8-K, which information is incorporated herein by reference.

 


 

In connection with the Acquisition, Derek Blackburn, Mickael Joasil, Frank O’Dea and Jefrey M. Wallace were appointed to the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”), effective upon the expiration of the 10-day period beginning on the date of the filing of this Information Statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to Rule 14f-1 of the 34 Act and the mailing of this Information Statement to the Company’s stockholders (the “Effective Date”). Also effective upon the Effective Date, Jim Glavas, the Company’s current sole director, will resign and the composition of the Company’s Board will change such that Messrs. O’Dea, Wallace, Joasil and Blackburn will be the Company’s directors.
Effective upon the completion of the Acquisition, Mr. Glavas resigned as the President, Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, Secretary, Treasurer and Principal Accounting Officer of the Company. Prior to his resignation, Mr. Glavas appointed Jefrey M. Wallace as the Company’s new Chief Executive Officer, President and Secretary and Derek Blackburn as the Company’s new Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer.
Please read this Information Statement carefully. It contains certain biographical and other information concerning the executive officers and directors that will be in place on the Effective Date. You are not, however, being asked to or required to take any action in connection with this Information Statement.

(1)   In determining beneficial ownership of our Common Stock as of a given date, the number of shares shown includes shares of Common Stock which may be acquired on exercise of warrants within 60 days of that date as well as shares of Common Stock which may be acquired pursuant to the exchange of the Exchangeable Shares. In determining the percent of Common Stock owned by a person or entity on July 28, 2008, (a) the numerator is the number of shares of the class beneficially owned by such person or entity, including shares of Common Stock which may be acquired on exercise of warrants within 60 days of that date as well as shares of Common Stock which may be acquired pursuant to the exchange of the Exchangeable Shares, and (b) the denominator is the sum of (i) the total shares of Common Stock outstanding on July 28, 2008, and (ii) the total number of shares that the beneficial owner may acquire on exercise of warrants within 60 days of that date as well as pursuant to the exchange of the Exchangeable Shares. The Special Voting Stock was issued to provide holders of the Exchangeable Shares (which have no right to vote with our Common Stock) the right to one vote per share of our Common Stock into which such holder’s Exchangeable Shares may be exchanged, and as such the Special Voting Stock is not included in the determination of the percent of Common Stock owned by such holder. As of July 28, 2008, 15,500,000 shares of our Common Stock and 8,963,750 shares of Special Voting Stock were issued and outstanding. Unless otherwise stated, each beneficial owner has sole power to vote and dispose of its shares. For information about the Exchangeable Shares and Special Voting Stock, please see Item 1.01 of the PureRay Acquisition Form 8-K, which is incorporated herein by reference.
 
(2)   8,963,750 shares of our Special Voting Stock were issued on July 24, 2008, pursuant to the Share Purchase Agreement and the Exchange Agreement.
 
(3)   One warrant was issued for each share of our Common Stock subscribed for in connection with the Private Placement, with a total of 2,000,000 warrants issued.
 
(4)   Jefrey M. Wallace, a director nominee and our Chief Executive Officer, President and Secretary, may be deemed to have beneficial ownership of the Exchangeable Shares, Special Voting Stock and shares of our Common Stock beneficially owned by Kairos pursuant to his 28% membership interest in Kairos. Mr. Wallace is also a managing member of Kairos.
 
(5)   Pursuant to an Escrow and Share Purchase Agreement dated July 24, 2008 (the “Escrow Agreement”) entered into between Kairos, PureRay Acquisition and Wildeboer Dellelce LLP in connection with the Acquisition, 4,355,000 of the Exchangeable Shares held by Kairos have been placed into escrow and will be incrementally released upon the occurrence of certain performance-based milestone events with respect to PureRay. Kairos has appointed the secretary of PureRay Acquisition to exercise the limited voting rights attaching to the Exchangeable Shares and Voting Rights of the Special Voting Stock issued with respect to the Exchangeable Shares held in escrow until such shares are released to Kairos. Kairos has no right to dividends or other distributions or payments made on the Exchangeable Shares held in escrow until such shares are released to Kairos. For information about the Escrow Agreement, Exchangeable Shares and Special Voting Stock, please see Item 1.01 of the PureRay Acquisition Form 8-K, which is incorporated herein by reference.
 
(6)   Shares of Common Stock beneficially owned reflect the number of shares of Common Stock for which the holder’s Exchangeable Shares may be exchanged.
 
(7)   The address of each of our directors and executive officers is 3490 Piedmont Road, Suite 1120, Atlanta, GA, 30305.

COMPENSATION OF DIRECTORS AND EXECUTIVE OFFICERS
Compensation Discussion and Analysis
Philosophy and Objectives of Our Compensation Program
Our approach to executive compensation is influenced by our belief in attracting and retaining qualified executive officers. We believe that the ability to attract and retain qualified executive officers and other key employees is essential to our long term success as we work towards production of our proprietary multiplexing light bulbs and light bulb charging stations (the “PureRay Technology”).
Our plan to attract and retain highly skilled employees is to provide market competitive salaries. Our compensation program does not currently include any stock, option or other equity or non-equity incentive award plan. As we further develop the PureRay Technology, we may in the future modify our plan to better link individual employee objectives with overall company strategies and results, and to reward executive officers and significant employees for their individual contributions to those strategies and results.
As of the date of this Information Statement, our named executive officers are Jefrey M. Wallace, our Chief Executive Officer, President and Secretary; Derek Blackburn, our Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer; and Jim Glavas, our former President, Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, Secretary, Treasurer and Principal Accounting Officer.
Administration of Our Compensation Program
We currently do not have a standing compensation committee, and our Board in its entirety has responsibility for establishing, monitoring and implementing our compensation program. Our Board reviews the compensation of our named executive officers at least on an annual basis to ensure that compensation levels and benefits are reasonable in light of our corporate performance and continue to achieve the philosophy and objectives of our compensation program described above.
The primary element of our executive compensation program is base salary, although we may in the future provide other types of incentive compensation, including bonuses and equity awards. In general, base salaries for our named executive officers are determined by evaluating the responsibilities of the executive’s position, the executive’s experience and the competitive marketplace. As appropriate, base salary adjustments will be considered and would take into account changes in the executive’s responsibilities, the executive’s performance and changes in the competitive marketplace.
The base salaries for Jefrey M. Wallace, our Chief Executive Officer, President and Secretary, and Derek Blackburn, our Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer, were established based upon recommendations from our Chief Executive Officer, which recommendations were ratified and confirmed by our entire Board. We believe that the base salaries of our named executive officers are appropriate within the context of the compensation elements provided to such executives and because they are at a level which remains competitive in the marketplace.
The following sets forth information with respect to compensation paid by us to our directors, our former chief executive officer and our two most highly compensated executive officers other than our former chief executive officer, who we refer to as our named executive officers, during the two most recent fiscal years.
Executive Compensation
We have not paid any salaries to our named executive officers during the fiscal years ended April 30, 2006, April 30, 2007 or April 30, 2008. We have no employment agreements with any of our named executive officers.
Effective June 1, 2008, the Company agreed to reimburse (the “Administrative Services Arrangement”) Kairos for the Company’s allocable cost of office facilities, equal to $1,500 per month, and other overhead and expenses. Pursuant to the Administrative Services Arrangement, the Company also agreed to reimburse Kairos for the allocable portion of Jefrey M. Wallace’s salary for his services as Chief Executive Officer, President and Secretary of the Company and Chief Executive Officer of PureRay. Mr. Wallace currently receives a salary of $20,000 per month plus an automobile allowance of $1,500 per month for his services on behalf of the Company and PureRay, which amounts are reimbursed by the Company to Kairos in accordance with the Administrative Services Arrangement. Mr. Wallace receives no compensation for his services as a director of the Company.
Effective May 1, 2008, the Company agreed to pay (the “Blackburn Arrangement”) Derek Blackburn, the Chief Financial Officer, Treasurer and a director of the Company, $12,500 per month for his services as Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer of the Company, and as an employee of the Company and PureRay, in which capacity Mr. Blackburn is primarily responsible for leading the marketing and sales efforts for the PureRay Technology. Pursuant to the Blackburn Arrangement, Mr. Blackburn is also reimbursed for certain travel and other expenses. Mr. Blackburn will receive no compensation for his services as a director of the Company. Under the Blackburn Arrangement, $12,500 of Mr. Blackburn’s compensation was paid directly by PureRay using funds advanced by the Company to PureRay prior to the Acquisition.
On September 15, 2008, the Company’s Board ratified and confirmed each of the Administrative Services Arrangement and the Blackburn Arrangement. As the Administrative Services Arrangement and the Blackburn Arrangement do not represent written agreements, each of these arrangements is terminable by either party without notice. The Company expects to negotiate and enter into final written agreements memorializing the Administrative Services Arrangement and the Blackburn Arrangement during the current fiscal year.
The Exchangeable Shares held by our named executive officers increase in value as the shares of our Common Stock increase in value. As such, our named executive officers will benefit from the increase in value of our Common Stock.
Compensation of Directors
No compensation was paid to our directors during the fiscal year ended April 30, 2008. There are no standard arrangements pursuant to which our directors are compensated for services provided as director.
Effective May 1, 2008, the Company agreed to pay (the “Joasil Arrangement”) Mickael Joasil, a director of the Company, $12,500 per month for his services as an employee of the Company and PureRay, in which capacity Mr. Joasil is primarily responsible for continued research and development of the PureRay Technology and continued product innovation. Pursuant to the Joasil Arrangement, Mr. Joasil is also reimbursed for certain travel and other expenses. Mr. Joasil will receive no compensation for his services as a director of the Company. Under the Joasil Arrangement, $12,500 of Mr. Joasil’s compensation was paid directly by PureRay using funds advanced by the Company to PureRay prior to the Acquisition.
On September 15, 2008, the Company’s Board ratified and confirmed the Joasil Arrangement. As the above arrangement does not represent a written agreement, the foregoing arrangement is terminable by either party without notice. The Company expects to negotiate and enter into a final written agreement memorializing the Joasil Arrangement during the current fiscal year.
The Exchangeable Shares held by our directors increase in value as the shares of our Common Stock increase in value. As such, our directors will benefit from the increase in value of our Common Stock.
Indemnification
Pursuant to our Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws, we may indemnify an officer or director who is made a party to any proceeding, including a law suit, because of his position, if he acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in our best interest. In certain cases, we may advance expenses incurred in defending any such proceeding. To the extent that the officer or director is successful on the merits in any such proceeding as to which such person is to be indemnified, we must indemnify him against all expenses incurred, including attorney’s fees. With respect to a derivative action, indemnity may be made only for expenses actually and reasonably incurred in defending the proceeding, and if the officer or director is judged liable, only by a court order. The indemnification is intended to be to the fullest extent permitted by the laws of the State of Washington.
Regarding indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), which may be permitted to directors or officers pursuant to the foregoing provisions, we are informed that, in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission, such indemnification is against public policy, as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.

 


 

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS
Messrs. O’Dea (as trustee of the O’Dea Family Trust), Joasil and Blackburn and Kairos were parties to the Share Purchase Agreement in their capacities as PureRay Shareholders. Pursuant to the Share Purchase Agreement, Messrs. O’Dea (as trustee of the O’Dea Family Trust), Joasil and Blackburn and Kairos acquired a beneficial interest in 1,000,000, 12,835,000, 12,835,000 and 5,355,000 Exchangeable Shares, respectively, and 250,000, 3,208,750, 3,208,750 and 1,338,750 shares of our Special Voting Stock, respectively. Jefrey M. Wallace, a director nominee and our Chief Executive Officer, President and Secretary, may be deemed to have beneficial ownership of the Exchangeable Shares, Special Voting Stock and shares of our Common Stock beneficially owned by Kairos pursuant to his 28% membership interest in Kairos. Mr. Wallace is also a managing member of Kairos. For information about the Share Purchase Agreement, the Exchangeable Shares and the Special Voting Stock, please see the information set forth above under Item 1.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K, which information is incorporated herein by reference.
Kairos was a party to the Escrow Agreement, whereby 4,355,000 of the Exchangeable Shares held by Kairos have been placed into escrow and will be incrementally released upon the occurrence of certain performance benchmarks achieved by PureRay. Kairos has appointed the Secretary of PureRay Acquisition to exercise the limited voting rights attaching to the Exchangeable Shares and Voting Rights of the Special Voting Stock issued with respect to the Exchangeable Shares held in escrow until such shares are released. Kairos has no right to dividends or other distributions or payments made on the Exchangeable Shares held in escrow until such shares are released. Jefrey M. Wallace, a director nominee and our Chief Executive Officer, President and Secretary, may be deemed to have beneficial ownership of the Exchangeable Shares, Special Voting Stock and shares of our Common Stock beneficially owned by Kairos pursuant to his 28% membership interest in Kairos. Mr. Wallace is also a managing member of Kairos. For information about the Escrow Agreement, please see the information set forth above in Item 1.01, which is incorporated herein by reference.
Effective January 2008, the Company agreed to pay Kairos certain fees and reimburse Kairos for certain expenses it incurred in connection with the Acquisition (the “Kairos Pre-Acquisition Arrangement”). The Company paid $79,314 to Kairos pursuant to the Kairos Pre-Acquisition Arrangement, which amount was paid directly by PureRay using funds advanced by the Company to PureRay prior to the Acquisition. Jefrey M. Wallace, a director and the Chief Executive Officer of the Company, holds an approximate 28% membership interest in and is a managing member of Kairos.
On September 15, 2008, the Company’s Board ratified and confirmed the Kairos Pre-Acquisition Arrangement.
Our former President advanced a total of $49,500 to the Company for general working capital (the “Loan”). For the fiscal 2007 and 2008, the largest aggregate amount of principal outstanding under the Loan was $29,500 and $49,500, respectively. The Loan is non-interest bearing, unsecured and due on demand. To date, the Company has not paid any amounts of principal under the Loan.
Other than as set forth above, none of our directors, executive officers or nominees for election as a director, and no owner of five percent or more of our outstanding shares of Common Stock or any member of their immediate family have entered into or proposed any transaction in which the amount involved exceeds $120,000 or one percent of the average of our total assets at our year end for the last two completed fiscal years.

 


 

BOARD COMPOSITION AND COMMITTEES
Our board of directors is currently composed of one member, Jim Glavas. In connection with the Acquisition, on July 24, 2008, Mr. Glavas submitted his resignation from the board of directors. Also in connection with the Acquisition, on July 24, 2008, prior to his resignation, Jim Glavas appointed Derek Blackburn, Mickael Joasil, Frank O’ Dea and Jefrey M. Wallace as director nominees. The resignation of Mr. Glavas as a director and the appointment of our director nominees are effective on the 10th day after the mailing of this Information Statement to our stockholders, after which our board of directors will be composed of Mr. Blackburn, Mr. Joasil, Mr. O’Dea and Mr. Wallace. The director nominees will serve until the close of our 2008 annual meeting of shareholders or the earlier of their respective resignations or until their respective successors are elected or appointed and qualified. The Company held no meetings of the Board during fiscal year 2008.
We currently do not have standing audit, nominating or compensation committees as the Board believes that it is premature at this stage of the Company’s business development to form an audit, compensation or nominating committee. Currently, our entire Board is responsible for the functions that would otherwise be handled by these committees. We intend, however, to establish an audit committee, a nominating committee and a compensation committee of the board of directors.
The Board does not have any defined policy or procedural requirements for shareholders to submit recommendations or nominations for directors. The Board does not believe that a defined policy with regard to the consideration of candidates recommended by stockholders is necessary at this time because, given the early stages of the Company’s development, a specific nominating policy would be premature and of little assistance to the Company’s business operations.
The Board has determined that it does not have an audit committee financial expert as defined in Item 407(d)(5) of Regulation S-K. We do not have an audit committee financial expert because we believe the cost related to retaining a financial expert at this time is prohibitive. Further, because of our limited operations, we believe the services of a financial expert are not warranted at this time.
The Board does not currently provide a process for shareholders to send communications to the Board because the Board believes that at this point it is premature to develop such processes given the limited liquidity of the Company’s Common Stock. However, the new Board of the Company may in the future establish a process for shareholder communications.
COMPLIANCE WITH SECTION 16(A) OF THE EXCHANGE ACT
Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 requires the Company’s directors and executive officers and persons who own more than ten percent of a registered class of the Company’s equity securities to file with the Securities and Exchange Commission initial reports of ownership and reports of changes in ownership of Common Stock and other equity securities of the Company. Officers, directors and greater than ten percent stockholders are required by Securities and Exchange Commission regulations to furnish the Company with copies of all Section 16(a) forms they file. To the Company’s knowledge, none of the officers, directors or stockholders of the Company was delinquent in any necessary filings under Section 16(a).
