PART I

ITEM 1. BUSINESS

BAB, Inc. (“the Company”) has three wholly owned subsidiaries: BAB Systems, Inc. (“Systems”), BAB Operations, Inc. (“Operations”) and BAB Investments, Inc. (“Investments”). Systems was incorporated on December 2, 1992, and was primarily established to franchise Big Apple Bagels® (“BAB”) specialty bagel retail stores. My Favorite Muffin (“MFM”) was acquired in 1997 and is included as a part of Systems. Brewster’s (“Brewster’s”) was established in 1996 and the coffee is sold in BAB and MFM locations. SweetDuet® (“SD”) frozen yogurt can be added as an additional brand in a BAB or MFM location. Operations was formed in 1995, primarily to operate Company-owned stores of which there are currently none. The assets of Jacobs Bros. Bagels (“Jacobs Bros.”) were acquired in 1999, and any branded wholesale business uses this trademark. Investments was incorporated in 2009 to be used for the purpose of acquisitions. To date there have been no acquisitions.

The Company was incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware on July 12, 2000. The Company currently franchises and licenses bagel and muffin retail units under the BAB and MFM trade names. At November 30, 2025, the Company had 60 franchise units and 3 licensed units in operation in 18 states. There are 4 units under development. The Company's revenues are derived primarily from the ongoing royalties paid to the Company by its franchisees and from receipt of initial franchise fees. Additionally, the Company derives revenue from the sale of licensed products (My Favorite Muffin mix, and Brewster's coffee) to franchisees, licensees and other approved customers.

The BAB franchised brand consists of units operating as “Big Apple Bagels®,” featuring daily baked bagels, flavored cream cheeses, premium coffees, gourmet bagel sandwiches and other related products. BAB units are primarily concentrated in the Midwest and Western United States. The MFM brand consists of units operating as “My Favorite Muffin Gourmet Muffin Bakery®” (“MFM Bakery”), featuring a large variety of freshly baked muffins and coffees and units operating as “My Favorite Muffin Your All Day Bakery Café®” (“MFM Cafe”) featuring these products as well as a variety of specialty bagel sandwiches and related products. The SweetDuet® is a branded self-serve frozen yogurt that can be added as an additional brand in a BAB or MFM location. Although the Company doesn't actively market Brewster's stand-alone franchises, Brewster's coffee products are sold in most franchised units.

The Company is leveraging on the natural synergy of distributing muffin products in existing BAB units and, alternatively, bagel products and Brewster's Coffee in existing MFM units. The Company expects to continue to realize efficiencies in servicing the combined base of BAB and MFM franchisees.

Net Income

The Company reported net income of $559,000 for fiscal year ended November 30, 2025 and net income of $525,000 for fiscal year ended November 30, 2024. November 30, 2025 net operating income was $722,000 compared to $665,000 in 2024.

Food Service Industry

Food service businesses are often affected by changes in consumer tastes; national, regional, and local economic conditions; demographic trends; traffic patterns; and the type, number and location of competing restaurants. Multi-unit food service chains, such as the Company's, can also be substantially adversely affected by publicity resulting from problems with food quality, illness, injury or other health concerns or operating issues stemming from one store or a limited number of stores. The food service business is also subject to the risk that shortages or interruptions in supply caused by adverse weather or other conditions could negatively affect the availability, quality and cost of ingredients and other food products. In addition, factors such as inflation, increased food and labor costs, regional weather conditions, availability and cost of suitable sites and the availability of experienced management and hourly employees may also adversely affect the food service industry in general and the Company's results of operations and financial condition in particular.

SUPPLIERS

The Company's current store design is approximately 1,800 square feet, with seating capacity for 20 to 30 persons, and includes approximately 750 square feet devoted to production and baking. A satellite store is typically smaller than a production store, averaging 800 to 1,200 square feet. Although franchise stores may vary in size from other franchise stores, store layout is generally consistent.

MY FAVORITE MUFFIN®--MFM franchised stores bake 20 to 25 varieties of muffins daily from over 125 recipes. They also serve gourmet coffees, beverages and, at MFM Cafe locations, a variety of bagels, bagel sandwiches and related products. A typical MFM store is in an area with a mix of both residential and commercial properties and ranges from 1,500 to 2,000 square feet. The typical MFM Café store design is approximately 1,800 square feet, with seating capacity for 20 to 30 persons. The MFM Bakery is approximately 1,500 square feet, with seating for 10 to 12 persons and typically sells only muffins and coffee. Although franchise stores may vary in size from other franchise stores, store layout is generally consistent.

SWEETDUET®-- The Company does not have any stand-alone SweetDuet franchises, but the SweetDuet concept is available as an added brand to a BAB or MFM location.

BREWSTER'S® COFFEE--Although the Company doesn't have, or actively market, Brewster's stand-alone franchises, Brewster's coffee products are sold in most of the franchised units.

FRANCHISING

The Company requires payment of an initial franchise fee per store, plus an ongoing 5% royalty on net sales. Additionally, BAB, MFM and SD franchisees are members of a marketing fund requiring an ongoing 3% contribution for general system-wide marketing. BAB currently requires a franchise fee of $25,000 on a franchisee's first full production BAB store. There is currently a $10,000 veterans discount for the franchise fee for the first location. The fee for subsequent production stores for BAB is $20,000. MFM currently requires a franchise fee of $30,000 on a franchisee's first full production MFM store. The fee for subsequent production stores for MFM is $25,000.

The Company's current Franchise Disclosure Documents (“FDD”) provides for, among other things, the opportunity for prospective franchisees to enter into a Preliminary Agreement for their first production store. This agreement enables a prospective franchisee a period of 60 days in which to locate a site. The fee for this Preliminary Agreement is $10,000. If a prospective franchisee fails to submit a site to Corporate in the designated timeframe, the preliminary agreement may be terminated and the fee is nonrefundable. If the prospective franchisee submits in writing, the request to terminate the agreement within the required timeframe, prior to submitting a site for approval Corporate will issue a refund of the preliminary fee less $3,000. If the prospective franchisee submits one site for approval that is not approved by Corporate, Corporate may, at its sole discretion either grant an extension to the above referenced 60 day period or terminate the Preliminary Agreement and refund the preliminary fee less $3,000. If a site is approved, the entire $10,000 will be applied toward the initial franchise fee. See also last paragraph under "Government Regulation" section in this 10-K. The Company's Franchise Agreement provides a franchisee with the right to develop one store at a specific location. Each Franchise Agreement is for a term of 10 years with the right to renew. Franchisees are expected to be in operation no later than 10 months following the signing of the Franchise Agreement.

The Company currently advertises its franchising opportunities in directories, and the internet. In addition, prospective franchisees contact the Company as a result of patronizing an existing store.

COMPETITION

The quick service restaurant industry is intensely competitive with respect to product quality, concept, location, service and price. There are a number of national, regional and local chains operating both owned and franchised stores which compete with the Company on a national level or solely in a specific market or region. The Company believes that because the industry is extremely fragmented, there is a significant opportunity for expansion in the bagel, muffin and coffee concept chains.

The Company believes the primary direct competitors of its bagel units are Panera Bread Company, Bruegger's Bagel Bakery and Einstein Bros. Bagels. There are several other regional bagel chains with fewer than 65 stores, as well as numerous small, independently owned bagel bakeries and national fast-food restaurants such as Dunkin’ and McDonald’s, all of which may compete with the Company. There is no major national competitor in the muffin business, but there are a number of regional and local operators. Additionally, the Company competes directly with a number of national, regional and local coffee competitors.

Other competition includes supermarket bakery sections and prepackaged, fresh and frozen bagels, muffins and yogurt. Certain of these competitors may have greater product and name recognition and larger financial, marketing and distribution capabilities than the Company. The Company believes the startup costs associated with opening a retail food establishment offering similar products on a stand-alone basis are competitive with the startup costs associated with opening its stores and, accordingly, such startup costs are not an impediment to entry into the retail bagel, muffin, frozen yogurt or coffee businesses.

The Company believes that its stores compete favorably in terms of food quality, taste, convenience, customer service and value, which the Company believes are important factors to its targeted customers. Competition in the food service industry is often affected by changes in consumer tastes, national, regional and local economic and real estate conditions, demographic trends, traffic patterns, the cost and availability of labor, consumer purchasing power, availability of product and local competitive factors. The Company attempts to manage or adapt to these factors, but not all such factors are within the Company's control. Such factors could cause the Company and some or all of its franchisees to be adversely affected.

The Company competes for qualified franchisees with a wide variety of investment opportunities in the restaurant business, as well as other industries. Investment opportunities in the bagel bakery cafe business include franchises offered by Einstein Bros. Bagels, Bruegger's Bagel Bakery and Panera Bread Company. The Company's continued success is dependent on its reputation for providing high quality and value with respect to its service, products and franchises. This reputation is affected by the performance of its franchise stores and licensed units that sell branded products over which the Company has limited control.

TRADEMARKS AND SERVICE MARKS

The trademarks, trade names and service marks used by the Company contain common descriptive English words and thus may be subject to challenge by users of these words, alone or in combination with other words, to describe other services or products. Some persons or entities may have prior rights to these names or marks in their respective localities. Accordingly, there is no assurance that such names and marks are available in all locations. Any challenge, if successful, in whole or in part, could restrict the Company's use of the names and marks in areas in which the challenger is found to have used the name or mark prior to the Company's use. Any such restriction could limit the expansion of the Company's use of the names or marks into that region, and the Company and its franchisees may be materially and adversely affected.

The trademarks and service marks "Big Apple Bagels®," "My Favorite Muffin®," “SweetDuet®”and "Brewster's® Coffee" are registered under applicable federal trademark law. The MFM brand consists of units operating as “My Favorite Muffin Gourmet Muffin Bakery®” (“MFM Bakery”), featuring a large variety of freshly baked muffins and coffees and units operating as “My Favorite Muffin Your All Day Bakery Café®” (“MFM Cafe”) featuring these products as well as a variety of specialty bagel sandwiches and related products. These marks are licensed by the Company to its franchisees pursuant to Franchise Agreements. In February 1999, the Company acquired the trademark of "Jacobs Bros. Bagels®" upon purchasing certain assets of Jacobs Bros. The "Jacobs Bros. Bagels®" mark is also registered under applicable federal trademark law.

The Company is aware of the use by other persons and entities in certain geographic areas of names and marks which are the same as, or similar to, the Company's names and marks. Some of these persons or entities may have prior rights to those names or marks in their respective localities; therefore, there is no assurance that the names and marks are available in all locations. It is the Company's policy to pursue registration of its names and marks whenever possible and to vigorously oppose any infringement of its names and marks.

GOVERNMENT REGULATION

The Company is subject to the Trade Regulation Rule of the Federal Trade Commission (the "FTC") entitled “Disclosure Requirements and Prohibitions Concerning Franchising'' (the "Amended FTC Franchise Rule") and state and local laws and regulations that govern the offer, sale and termination of franchises and the refusal to renew franchises. Continued compliance with these broad federal, state and local regulatory networks is essential and costly. The failure to comply with such regulations may have a material adverse effect on the Company and its franchisees. Violations of franchising laws and/or state laws and regulations regulating substantive aspects of doing business in a particular state could limit the Company's ability to sell franchises or subject the Company and its affiliates to rescission offers, monetary damages, penalties, imprisonment and/or injunctive proceedings. In addition, under court decisions in certain states, absolute vicarious liability may be imposed upon franchisors based upon claims made against franchisees. Even if the Company is able to obtain insurance coverage for such claims, there can be no assurance that such insurance will be sufficient to cover potential claims against the Company.

The Company and its franchisees are required to comply with federal, state and local government regulations applicable to consumer food service businesses, including those relating to the preparation and sale of food, minimum wage requirements, overtime, working and safety conditions, citizenship requirements, as well as regulations relating to zoning, construction, health and business licensing. Each store is subject to regulation by federal agencies and to licensing and regulation by state and local health, sanitation, safety, fire and other departments. Difficulties or failures in obtaining the required licenses or approvals could delay or prevent the opening of a new Company-owned or franchise store, and failure to remain in compliance with applicable regulations could cause the temporary or permanent closing of an existing store. The Company believes that it is in material compliance with these provisions. Continued compliance with these federal, state and local laws and regulations is costly but essential, and failure to comply may have an adverse effect on the Company and its franchisees.

The Company's franchising operations are subject to regulation by the FTC under the Amended FTC Franchise Rule which requires, among other things, that the Company prepare and periodically update a comprehensive disclosure document known as a Franchise Disclosure Document (“FDD”) in connection with the sale and operation of its franchises. In addition, some states require a franchisor to register its franchise with the state before it may offer a franchise to a prospective franchisee. The Company believes its FDDs, together with any applicable state versions or supplements, comply with both the FTC guidelines and all applicable state laws regulating franchising in those states in which it has offered franchises.

- 6 -

The Company is also subject to a number of state laws, as well as foreign laws (to the extent it offers franchises outside of the United States), that regulate substantive aspects of the franchisor-franchisee relationship, including, but not limited to, those concerning termination and non-renewal of a franchise.

ITEM 1C. CYBERSECURITY

The Company’s Audit Committee, composed of two independent members of Board of Directors, has oversight responsibility for the Company’s cybersecurity risk management. Day-to-day oversight of cybersecurity matters is managed by the Company’s Chief Financial Officer, (“CFO”) and the Chief Operating Officer, (“COO”).

The CFO reports to the Audit Committee prior to each quarterly and annual Form 10-Q and 10-K filing, regarding cybersecurity matters, including updates on cybersecurity risks, controls, and procedures. The CFO also provides the Audit Committee with information regarding the Company’s cybersecurity insurance coverage and obtains Audit Committee approval for any material changes to such coverage. In addition, the CFO informs the Audit Committee of any proposed changes to third-party information technology (“IT”) service providers or consultants. The Audit Committee reviews and approves any changes in IT providers and is promptly notified of any cybersecurity threats or incidents.

At BAB, Inc. we recognize the importance of safeguarding our systems, data and assets, even though the nature of our business results in a relatively low exposure to cybersecurity risk. The CFO has over 30 years of experience in risk management and working with computer systems across multiple industries, including evaluating operational risks, overseeing internal controls, and coordinating with third-party providers. The COO has several years of experience in IT operations within the company. Together, the CFO and COO are familiar with the Company’s information systems, operational environment, and internal policies and procedures related to safeguarding critical data and assets.

The Company’s cybersecurity risk management program consists of a combination of technical, administrative, and physical safeguards designed to identify, assess, and mitigate cybersecurity risks. As part of this process, the CFO regularly engages with outside IT consultants to assist in monitoring systems, assessing cybersecurity risks, and maintaining appropriate security controls.

- 7 -

The Company’s cybersecurity infrastructure includes a combination of technical, administrative and physical safeguards designed to mitigate cybersecurity risks. As part of our risk management process, the CFO also regularly engages with the outside IT consultants to review and minimize the Company’s cybersecurity risk.

The Company’s cybersecurity infrastructure includes network firewall protection with intrusion detection, virus protection, and other subscription-based security services that are regularly updated. Remote access to the Company’s network is protected through end-to-end encryption using a secure virtual private network (VPN). All Company computers, including those used by remote personnel, are protected by antivirus and endpoint security software provided and maintained by an outside IT consultant. The software continuously monitors for potential threats and updates automatically. Additional services are used to filter emails and reduce phishing and spam risks. Employees receive training designed to promote awareness of cybersecurity risks, including guidance to avoid opening suspicious emails or unexpected attachments.

Sensitive files are password-protected and accessible only to authorized personnel and are maintained on separate drives. The Company maintains regular data backups and redundancy protocols designed to minimize downtime in the event of a cybersecurity incident. The Company also maintains cybersecurity insurance coverage to help mitigate potential financial impacts associated with a cybersecurity event.

While no system is entirely immune from cybersecurity threats, and despite the Company’s relatively low risk profile, a cybersecurity incident could adversely affect the Company’s business, result in reputational harm, increase operating costs, or expose the Company to litigation. To date, the Company has not experienced any cybersecurity incidents that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, its business, operations, or financial condition. In the event of a cybersecurity incident, the CFO and/or COO will promptly report the matter to the Audit Committee, including information regarding the nature of the incident, remediation efforts, and actions taken to reduce the risk of future incidents.

On May 6, 2013, the Board authorized and declared a dividend distribution of one right for each outstanding share of the common stock of the Company to stockholders of record at the close of business on May 13, 2013. Each right entitles the registered holder to purchase from the Company one one-thousandth of a share of the Series A Participating Preferred Stock of the Company at an exercise price of $0.90 per one-thousandth of a Preferred Share, subject to adjustment. The complete terms of the Rights are set forth in a Preferred Shares Rights Agreement, dated May 6, 2013, between the Company and IST Stockholder Services, as rights agent.

- 9 -

The Board adopted the Rights Agreement to protect stockholders from coercive or otherwise unfair takeover tactics. In general terms, it works by imposing a significant penalty upon any person or group, other than exempt person, that acquires 15% (or 20% in the case of certain institutional investors who report their holdings on Schedule 13G) or more of the Common Shares without the approval of the Board. As a result, the overall effect of the Rights Agreement and the issuance of the Rights may be to render more difficult a merger, tender or exchange offer or other business combination involving the Company that is not approved by the Board. However, neither the Rights Agreement nor the Rights should interfere with any merger, tender or exchange offer or other business combination approved by the Board.

Full details about the Rights Plan are contained in a Form 8-K filed by the Company with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on May 7, 2013.

On June 18, 2014 an amendment to the Preferred Shares Rights Agreement was filed appointing American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, LLC as successor to Illinois Stock Transfer Company. All original rights and provisions remain unchanged. On August 18, 2015 an amendment was filed to the Preferred Shares Rights Agreement changing the final expiration date to mean the fifth anniversary of the date of the original agreement. All other original rights and provisions remain the same. On May 22, 2017 an amendment was filed extending the final expiration date to mean the seventh anniversary date of the original agreement. All other original rights and provisions remain the same. On February 22, 2019 an amendment was filed extending the final expiration date to mean the ninth anniversary date of the original agreement. All other original rights and provisions remain the same. On March 4, 2021 an amendment was filed extending the final expiration date to mean the eleventh anniversary date of the original agreement. All other original rights and provisions remain the same. On April 4, 2023 an amendment was filed extending the final expiration date to mean the fourteenth anniversary date of the original agreement. All other original rights and provisions remain the same. On November 19, 2025 an amendment was filed extending the final expiration date to mean the sixteenth anniversary date of the original agreement. All other original rights and provisions remain the same.

Determination of whether distributions are considered a cash distribution, cash dividend or combination of the two are not made until after December 31, 2025, as the classification or combination is dependent upon the Company’s earnings and profits for tax purposes for its fiscal year ending November 30, 2025.

The Company believes execution of its cash distribution/dividend policy will not have any material adverse effects on its ability to fund current operations or future capital investments.

GENERAL

The Company has 60 franchised and 3 licensed units with 4 units under development at the end of 2025. Units in operation and under development at the end of 2024 included 61 franchised and 4 licensed units and 4 units under development. System-wide revenues were $41.1 million in 2025 and $41.4 million in 2024.

The Company's revenues are derived primarily from the ongoing royalties paid to the Company by its franchisees and from receipt of initial franchise fees. Additionally, the Company derives revenue from the sale of licensed products (My Favorite Muffin mix, and Brewster's coffee) to franchisees, licensees and other approved customers.

YEAR 2025 COMPARED TO YEAR 2024

Total revenues from all sources decreased $106,000, or 3.0%, to $3,439,000 in 2025 from $3,545,000 in the prior year. Franchise fee revenue decreased $33,000, royalty revenue decreased $11,000, licensing fees and other revenue decreased $29,000, and Marketing Fund revenue decrease $35,000 in 2025 compared to 2024.

Royalty fee revenue of $1,984,000, for the fiscal year ended November 30, 2025, decreased $11,000, or 0.6%, from the $1,995,000 for fiscal year ended November 30, 2024.

Franchise fee revenue decreased $33,000, or 58.9%, to $23,000 in 2025 as compared to $56,000 in 2024. In 2025 there were two transfers, in addition to the normal monthly amortization. In 2024 there were two transfers, one store opened and one store closed that had not been fully amortized that resulted in an additional $23,000 in franchise fees recognized, in addition to the normal monthly amortization.

Licensing fees and other income decreased $29,000, or 9.1%, to $289,000 in 2025 compared to $318,000 in 2024. Marketing fund revenues decreased $35,000, or 3.0% to $1,142,000 in 2025 compared to $1,177,000 in 2024.

The decrease in operating expenses of $162,000, or 5.6% in 2025 was primarily due to a decrease in marketing expenses of $35,000, occupancy expense of $9,000, a $79,000 decrease in employee benefit expense due to several employees moving from the company health policy to Medicare, a decrease in professional fees $20,000, and a $16,000 decrease in other expenses. There was a $12,000 decrease in 2025 expenses because there was a loss on lease termination in 2024. This was offset by an increase of $7,000 in payroll expenses and a $2,000 increase in advertising and promotions.

Interest income decreased $8,000, or 12.1% to $58,000 in 2025 compared to $66,000 in 2024.

In 2025 there was an income tax expense of $221,000 which includes $15,000 of noncash deferred tax expense, $150,000 of federal income tax, and $56,000 of state taxes. In 2024 there was an income tax expense of $206,000 which includes $8,000 of noncash deferred tax expense, $150,000 of federal income tax, and $48,000 of state taxes. There was net income of $559,000 in 2025 versus a net income of $525,000 in 2024.

Total operating income before interest and taxes was $722,000 in 2025 or 21.0% of revenue as compared to $665,000 or 18.8% of revenue in the prior year. In 2025 earnings per share for basic and diluted outstanding shares was $0.08 compared to $0.07 in 2024.

Financing activities in fiscal 2025 and fiscal 2024 included cash used for distributions/dividend payments to common stockholders of $436,000 and $363,000, respectively.

Although there can be no assurances that the Company will be able to pay cash distributions/dividends in the future, it is the Company’s intent that future cash distributions/dividends will be considered based on profitability expectations and financing needs and will be declared at the discretion of the Board of Directors. It is the Company’s intent going forward to declare and pay cash distributions/dividends on a quarterly basis if warranted.

Determination of whether distributions are considered a cash distribution, cash dividend or combination of the two will not be made until after December 31, 2025, as the classification or combination is dependent upon the Company’s earnings and profits for tax purposes for its fiscal year ending November 30, 2025.

The Company believes execution of its cash distribution/dividend policy will not have any material adverse effects on its ability to fund current operations or future capital investments.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The Company's significant accounting policies are presented in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements (see Note 2 of the audited consolidated financial statements included herein). While all of the significant accounting policies impact the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements, some of the policies may be viewed to be more critical. The more critical policies are those that are most important to the portrayal of the Company's financial condition and results of operations and that require management's most difficult, subjective and/or complex judgments and estimates. Management bases its judgments and estimates on historical experience and various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. The results of judgments and estimates form the basis for making judgments about the Company's value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results could differ from those estimates under different assumptions or conditions. Management believes the following are its most critical accounting policies because they require more significant judgments and estimates in preparation of its consolidated financial statements.

Long-Lived Assets

Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Improvements and replacements are capitalized, while expenditures for maintenance and routine repairs that do not extend the life of the asset are charged to expense as incurred. Depreciation is calculated on the straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Property, equipment and leasehold improvements are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation. Estimated useful lives for the purpose of depreciation and amortization are 3 to 7 years for property and equipment and 10 years, or the term of the lease if less, for leasehold improvements.

Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

Accounting Standard Codification (“ASC”) 350 “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets” requires that assets with indefinite lives no longer be amortized, but instead be subject to annual impairment tests. The Company follows this guidance.

Following the guidelines contained in ASC 350, the Company tests goodwill and intangible assets that are not subject to amortization for impairment annually or more frequently if events or circumstances indicate that impairment is possible. The Company has elected to conduct its annual test during the first quarter. During the quarters ended February 28, 2025 and 2024, management qualitatively assessed goodwill to determine whether testing was necessary. Factors that management considers in this assessment include macroeconomic conditions, industry and market considerations, overall financial performance (both current and projected), changes in management and strategy, and changes in the composition and carrying amounts of net assets. If this qualitative assessment indicates that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than it’s carrying value, a quantitative assessment is then performed.

Management reviewed and updated the qualitative assessment conducted during the first quarter 2025 at year end and does not believe that any impairment exists at November 30, 2025.

Concentrations of Credit Risk

Certain financial instruments potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk. These financial instruments consist primarily of royalty and wholesale accounts receivables. The Company believes it has maintained adequate reserves for credit losses.

- 13 -

Deferred Taxes

The Company routinely reviews the future realization of tax assets based on projected future reversals of taxable temporary differences, available tax planning strategies and projected future taxable income.

Leases

The Company accounts for leases under ASC 842. Lease arrangements are determined at the inception of the contract. Operating leases are included in operating lease right-of-use (“ROU”) assets, other current liabilities and long-term operating lease liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets. Finance leases are included in property and equipment, other current liabilities, and other long-term liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets.

Operating lease ROU assets and operating lease liabilities are recognized based on the present value of the future minimum lease payments over the lease term at commencement date. As most leases do not provide an implicit rate, we use an incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at commencement date in determining the present value of future payments. The operating lease ROU asset also includes any lease payments made and excludes lease incentives and initial direct costs incurred. The lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise that option. Lease expense for minimum lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

Franchise and related revenue

The Company sells individual franchises. The franchise agreements typically require the franchisee to pay an initial, non-refundable fee prior to opening the respective location(s), and continuing royalty fees on a weekly basis based upon a percentage of franchisee net sales. The initial term of franchise agreements are typically 10 years. Subject to the Company’s approval, a franchisee may generally renew the franchise agreement upon its expiration. If approved, a franchisee may transfer a franchise agreement to a new or existing franchisee, at which point a transfer fee is typically paid by the current owner which then terminates that franchise agreement. A franchise agreement is signed with the new franchisee with no franchise fee required. If a contract is terminated prior to its term, it is a breach of contract and a penalty is assessed based on a formula reviewed and approved by management. Revenue generated from a contract breach is termed settlement income by the Company and included in licensing fees and other income.

Under the terms of our franchise agreements, the Company typically promises to provide franchise rights, pre-opening services such as blueprints, operational materials, planning and functional training courses, and ongoing services, such as management of the marketing fund. The Company considers certain pre-opening activities and the franchise rights and related ongoing services represent two separate performance obligations. The franchise fee revenue has been allocated to the two separate performance obligations using a residual approach. The Company has estimated the value of performance obligations related to certain pre-opening activities deemed to be distinct based on cost plus an applicable margin, and assigned the remaining amount of the initial franchise fee to the franchise rights and ongoing services. Revenue allocated to preopening activities is recognized when (or as) these services are performed. Revenue allocated to franchise rights and ongoing services is deferred until the store opens, and recognized on a straight-line basis over the duration of the agreement, as this ensures that revenue recognition aligns with the customer’s access to the franchise right.

Royalty fees from franchised stores represent a 5% fee on net retail and wholesale sales of franchised units. Royalty revenues are recognized on an accrual basis using actual franchise receipts. Generally, franchisees report and remit royalties on a weekly basis. The majority of month-end receipts are recorded on an accrual basis based on actual numbers from reports received from franchisees shortly after the month-end. Estimates are utilized in certain instances where actual numbers have not been received and such estimates are based on the average of the last 10 weeks’ actual reported sales.

- 14 -

Franchise and related revenue (cont’d)

Royalty income is recognized during the respective franchise agreement based on the royalties earned each period as the underlying franchise store sales occur.

There are two items involving revenue recognition of contracts that require us to make subjective judgments: the determination of which performance obligations are distinct within the context of the overall contract and the estimated stand-alone selling price of each obligation. In instances where our contract includes significant customization or modification services, the customization and modification services are generally combined and recorded as one distinct performance obligation.

Nontraditional and rebate revenue

As part of the Company’s franchise agreements, the franchisee purchases products and supplies from designated vendors. The Company may receive various fees and rebates from the vendors and distributors on product purchases by franchisees. In addition, the Company may collect various initial fees, and those fees are classified as deferred revenue in the balance sheet and straight lined over the life of the contract as deferred revenue in the balance sheet. The Company does not possess control of the products prior to their transfer to the franchisee and products are delivered to franchisees directly from the vendor or their distributors. The Company recognizes the rebates as franchisees purchase products and supplies from vendors or distributors and recognizes the initial fees over the contract life and the fees are reported as licensing fees and other income in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.

Gift card breakage revenue

The Company sells gift cards to its customers in its retail stores and through its Corporate office. The Company’s gift cards do not have an expiration date and are not redeemable for cash except where required by law. Revenue from gift cards is recognized upon redemption in exchange for product and reported within franchisee store revenue and the royalty and marketing fees are paid and shown in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. Until redemption, outstanding customer balances are recorded as a liability. An obligation is recorded at the time of sale of the gift card and it is included in accrued expenses on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Included in accounts payable and accrued expenses at November 30, 2025 and 2024 were liabilities of $170,000 and $234,000, respectively for unredeemed gift cards.

Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, “Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures” which is intended to simplify various aspects related to accounting for income taxes. ASU 2023-09 removes certain exceptions to the general principles in Topic 740 and also clarifies and amends existing guidance to improve consistent application. The amendments in ASU 2023-09 are effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, including interim periods therein. Early adoption of the standard is permitted, including adoption in interim or annual periods for which financial statements have not yet been issued. The Company will adopt ASU 2023-09 for fiscal year ending November 30, 2026.

On July 30, 2025 the FASB issued ASU 2025-05, “Measurement of Credit Losses for Accounts Receivable and Contract Assets”. The ASU relates to estimating credit losses under CECL for current accounts receivable and current contract assets arising from revenue transactions accounted for under ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, including those acquired in a transaction accounted for under ASC 805, Business Combinations. The ASU does not apply to other types of accounts receivable and loans.

For all entities, the ASU provides a practical expedient to assume that current conditions as of the balance sheet date will persist through the reasonable and supportable forecast period for eligible assets. Entities will still be required to adjust historical data used in the estimation to reflect current conditions.

The new guidance will be effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2025 and is to be adopted on a prospective basis. The Company will adopt ASU 2025-09 for fiscal year ending November 30, 2027.

Management does not believe that there are any recently issued and effective or not yet effective accounting pronouncements as of November 30, 2025 that would have or are expected to have any significant effect on the Company’s financial position, cash flows or income statement.

ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

In regard to interest, foreign currency and commodity price risk the Company does not believe that these are significant risk factors.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors and
Stockholders of BAB, Inc.

Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of BAB, Inc. (the Company) as of November 30, 2025 and 2024, and the related statements of income, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended November 30, 2025, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the financial statements). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of November 30, 2025 and 2024, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended November 30, 2025, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Basis for Opinion

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, 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.

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Critical Audit Matters

The critical audit matters communicated below are matters arising from the current period audit of the financial statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matters below, providing separate opinions on the critical audit matters or on the accounts or disclosures to which they relate.

Valuation of goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets

At November 30, 2025, the Company’s goodwill was $1,493,771 and indefinite-lived intangible assets were $461,445. As disclosed in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements, goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets are tested for impairment either qualitatively or quantitively at least annually, or more frequently if indicators of impairment require the performance of interim impairment assessment. During the year ended November 30, 2025, management qualitatively assessed goodwill to determine whether additional quantitative testing was necessary.

Auditing the accounting for goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets was highly judgmental due to the qualitative nature of the goodwill impairment evaluation, and the subjectivity in determining whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets are less than the carrying amount.

Addressing the matter involved performing procedures and evaluating audit evidence in connection with forming our overall opinion on the consolidated financial statements. These procedures included obtaining an understanding and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of controls over the Company’s process of accounting for goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets, and evaluating events and circumstances identified by management to support an assertion that it is not more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. Relevant events and circumstances evaluated included general macroeconomic conditions, industry and market conditions in which the Company operates, changes in cost factors, overall financial performance, including both actual and expected performance, entity-specific events, changes in share price, both in absolute terms and relative to peers, and any applicable quantitative analysis used to support qualitative discussions.

BAB, Inc

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

November 30, 2025 and 2024

Note 1 - Nature of Operations

BAB, Inc (“the Company”) has three wholly owned subsidiaries: BAB Systems, Inc. (“Systems”) and BAB Operations, Inc. (“Operations”) and BAB Investments, Inc. (“Investments”). Systems was incorporated on December 2, 1992, and was primarily established to franchise Big Apple Bagels® (“BAB”) specialty bagel retail stores. My Favorite Muffin (“MFM”) was acquired in 1997 and is included as a part of Systems. Brewster’s (“Brewster’s”) was established in 1996 and the coffee is sold in BAB and MFM locations. SweetDuet® (“SD”) frozen yogurt can be added as an additional brand in a BAB or MFM location. Operations was formed in 1995, primarily to operate Company-owned stores of which there are currently none. The assets of Jacobs Bros. Bagels (“Jacobs Bros.”) were acquired in 1999, and any branded wholesale business uses this trademark. Investments was incorporated in 2009 to be used for the purpose of acquisitions. To date there have been no acquisitions.

The BAB franchised brand consists of units operating as “Big Apple Bagels®,” featuring daily baked bagels, flavored cream cheeses, premium coffees, gourmet bagel sandwiches and other related products. BAB units are primarily concentrated in the Midwest and Western United States. The MFM brand consists of units operating as “My Favorite Muffin Gourmet Muffin Bakery®” (“MFM Bakery”), featuring a large variety of freshly baked muffins and coffees and units operating as “My Favorite Muffin Your All Day Bakery Café®” (“MFM Cafe”) featuring these products as well as a variety of specialty bagel sandwiches and related products. The SweetDuet® is a branded self-serve frozen yogurt that can be added as an additional brand in a BAB location. Although the Company doesn't actively market Brewster's stand-alone franchises, Brewster's coffee products are sold in most franchised units.

Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Uses of Estimates

The preparation of the financial statements and accompanying notes are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reported periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

November 30, 2025 and 2024

Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand and demand deposits with banks with original maturities of less than 90 days. The balances of bank accounts may, at times, exceed federally insured credit limits. The Company has not experienced any loss in such accounts and believes it is not subject to any significant credit risk related to cash at November 30, 2025.

Accounts and Notes Receivable

The CECL reserve methodology requires companies to measure expected credit losses on financial instruments based on the total estimated amount to be collected over the lifetime of the instrument. Under the CECL model, reserves may be established against financial asset balances even if the risk of loss is remote or has not yet manifested itself. The Company records specific reserves against account balances of franchisees deemed at-risk when a potential loss is likely or imminent as a result of prolonged payment delinquency (greater than 90 days past due) and where notable credit deterioration has become evident. For financial assets that are not currently deemed at-risk, an allowance is recorded based on expected loss rates derived pursuant to the Company's CECL methodology that assesses four components - historical losses, current conditions, reasonable and supportable forecasts, and a reversion to history, if applicable.

The Company considers its portfolio segments to be the following:

Accounts Receivable (Franchise-Related): Most of the Company’s short-term receivables due from franchisees are derived from royalty, advertising and other franchise-related fees.

Notes Receivable: Notes receivable balances primarily relate to the conversion of (1) certain past due franchisee accounts receivable or (2) early franchise termination fees, to notes receivable. These notes are usually not collateralized. A significant portion of these notes have specific reserves recorded against them amounting to $49,350 as of November 30, 2025.

Accounts Receivables (Vendor Related): Receivables due from vendors and distributors consist of royalty receivables related to the sale of certain food products to franchisees through the Company’s network of suppliers and distributors and are included as part of Accounts Receivable.

The Company's internal credit quality indicators for all portfolio segments primarily consider delinquency. Current and collateralized lease receivables have an internal risk rating of Grade I. The Company does not currently have any uncollateralized lease receivables. Past due lease receivables would be assigned an internal risk rating of Grade II-IV, depending on significance of delinquency. For uncollateralized notes receivable, the Company also considers the status of the franchisee note holder and the term of the note. Notes receivable from current franchisees are considered to have an elevated risk of credit loss based on their common origination from past due franchise accounts receivable but have some indication of collectability given ongoing operations (Internal Grade II). Notes receivable due from payers who no longer have an operating franchise are considered to have a high likelihood of credit loss (Internal Grade III). That likelihood increases if the note is outstanding for longer than one year (Internal Grade IV). At November 30, 2025, all but one note receivable which is classified current and from an active franchisee, all other notes receivable is due from former franchisees and had an original term over one year.

Changes in the allowance for credit losses during the fiscal year ended November 30, 2025 were as follows:

Property, Plant and Equipment

Property, equipment and leasehold improvements are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Estimated useful lives are 3 to 7 years for property and equipment and 10 years, or term of lease if less, for leasehold improvements. Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Expenditures that materially extend the useful lives of assets are capitalized.

Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets (continued)

Management reviewed and updated the qualitative assessment conducted during the first quarter 2025 at year end and does not believe that any impairment exists at November 30, 2025.

The net book value of goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite and definite lives are as follows:

	Goodwill		Trademarks		Definite Lived Intangibles			Total

Advertising and Promotion Costs

The Company expenses advertising and promotion costs as incurred. All advertising and promotion costs were related to the Company’s franchise operations. Advertising and promotion expense was $4,000 and $1,900 in 2025 and 2024, respectively.

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with FASB Topic 40. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are classified as noncurrent on the balance sheet. Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. The benefits from net operating losses carried forward may be impaired or limited in certain circumstances.

The Company files a consolidated U.S. income tax return and tax returns in various state jurisdictions. Review of the Company’s possible tax uncertainties as of November 30, 2025 did not result in any positions requiring disclosure. Should the Company need to record interest and/or penalties related to uncertain tax positions or other tax authority assessments, it would classify such expenses as part of the income tax provision. The Company has not changed any of its tax policies or adopted any new tax positions during the fiscal year ended November 30, 2025 and believes it has filed appropriate tax returns in all jurisdictions for which it has nexus.

The Company’s income tax returns, which are filed as a consolidated return, for the years ending November 30, 2022, 2023 and 2024 are subject to examination by the IRS and corresponding states, generally for three years after they are filed.

Earnings Per Share

The Company computes earnings per share (“EPS”) under ASC 260 “Earnings per Share.” Basic net earnings are divided by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the year to calculate basic net earnings per common share. Diluted net earnings per common share are calculated to give effect to the potential dilution that could occur if options or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised and resulted in the issuance of additional common shares. There are currently no stock options issued or outstanding.

Franchise and related revenue

Under the terms of our franchise agreements, the Company typically promises to provide franchise rights, pre-opening services such as blueprints, operational materials, planning and functional training courses, and ongoing services, such as management of the marketing fund. The Company considers certain pre-opening activities and the franchise rights and related ongoing services to represent two separate performance obligations. The franchise fee revenue has been allocated to the two separate performance obligations using a residual approach. The Company has estimated the value of performance obligations related to certain pre-opening activities deemed to be distinct based on cost plus an applicable margin, and assigned the remaining amount of the initial franchise fee to the franchise rights and ongoing services. Revenue allocated to preopening activities is recognized when (or as) these services are performed. Revenue allocated to franchise rights and ongoing services is deferred until the store opens, and recognized on a straight-line basis over the duration of the agreement, as this ensures that revenue recognition aligns with the customer’s access to the franchise right.

Royalty revenue is recognized during the respective franchise agreement based on the royalties earned each period as the underlying franchise store sales occur.

Gift card breakage revenue

The liability is reduced when the gift cards are redeemed by a franchise. Although there are no expiration dates for our gift cards, based on our analysis of historical gift card redemption patterns, we can reasonably estimate the amount of gift cards for which redemption is remote, which is referred to as “breakage.” The Company recognizes gift card breakage proportional to actual gift card redemptions on a quarterly basis and the corresponding revenue is included in licensing fees and other revenue. Significant judgments and estimates are required in determining the breakage rate and are reassessed each quarter. During the year ended November 30, 2025, the Company reevaluated its gift card breakage estimate. The reevaluated estimate resulted in $80,000 of additional breakage revenue for year ended November 30, 2025. The breakage revenue wrote off gift card liabilities related to gift cards issued prior to November 30, 2016.

Nontraditional and rebate revenue

Marketing Fund

Franchise agreements require the franchisee to pay continuing marketing fees on a weekly basis, based on a percentage of franchisee sales. Marketing fees are not paid on franchise wholesale sales. The balance sheet includes marketing fund cash, which is the restricted cash, accounts receivable and unexpended marketing fund contributions. Although the marketing fees are not separate performance obligations distinct from the underlying franchise right, the Company acts as the principal as it is primarily responsible for the fulfillment and control of the marketing services. As a result, the Company records marketing fees in revenues and related marketing fund expenditures in expenses in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Income. The Company historically presented the net activities of the marketing fund within the balance sheet in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet. While this reclassification impacts the gross amount of reported revenue and expenses the amounts will be offsetting, and there is no impact on net income.

Note 7 – Lease Commitments

The Company rents its office under an operating lease which requires it to pay base rent, real estate taxes, insurance and general repairs and maintenance. The lease effective during the quarter was signed in June of 2018, effective October 1, 2018, expiring on March 31, 2024. On February 15, 2024, a lease amendment was signed, effective April 1, 2024 for a 6-year period, expiring March 31, 2030, with an option to renew for a 5-year period. The amendment continues to require the Company to pay base rent, real estate taxes, insurance and general repairs and maintenance. The amendment includes a ten-month rent abatement over the lease term, specifically defined in the agreement, and tenant allowance in the amount of $158,940. The tenant allowance is to be applied evenly to the 62 months that were not abated. The renewal option has not been included in the measurement of the lease liability.

Monthly rent expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. Rent expenses for fiscal 2025 and 2024 were $86,839 and $90,996, respectively. At November 30, 2025 the remaining lease term was 52 months. The lease amendment is reflected in the balance of the Lease Liability on the balance sheet at the present value of the lease payments using an 8.50% discount rate.

Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Our evaluation of internal control over financial reporting includes using the COSO framework, an integrated framework for the evaluation of internal controls issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission, to identify the risks and control objectives related to the evaluation of our control environment.

Based on our evaluation under the framework described above, our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, concluded that the Company’s internal controls and procedures were effective over financial reporting as of November 30, 2025.

This annual report does not include an attestation report from the Company’s registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation requirements by the Company’s registered public accounting firm pursuant to rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permits the Company to provide only management’s report in this annual report.

Clawback Provision

As part of BAB, Inc.’s commitment to maintain high standards of corporate governance and accountability, BAB, Inc. has implemented a Clawback Policy related to executive compensation. This policy is designed to allow the Company to recover certain incentive-based compensation in the event of a material financial restatement or in instances of executive misconduct. There were no clawbacks in 2025 and no clawback policy changes.

Clawback Policy Overview

Under our Clawback Policy, the Company has the right to recover any bonus, incentive, or equity-based compensation awarded to any executive officer (including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer) if:

Restatement of Financials: The Company is required to restate its financial statements due to material noncompliance with any financial reporting requirements, and the executive’s compensation was based on the erroneous financial results.

Misconduct: The executive engages in misconduct that leads to the restatement of financial results, fraud, or other actions that harm the Company or its stockholders.

The Audit Committee will assess whether a financial restatement or misconduct warrants a clawback of compensation on a case-by-case basis, in accordance with the applicable laws and regulations, including the requirements under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act.

Conditions for Clawback

In the event of a restatement, the Company will seek to recover the excess amount of compensation paid to the executive in the period leading up to the restatement. The excess compensation is defined as the amount by which the previously awarded compensation exceeds what would have been awarded had the financial statements been correct.

For misconduct-related clawbacks, the Company may pursue recovery of compensation in situations where it is determined that an executive’s actions were directly responsible for or contributed to the financial or reputational harm to the Company.

Enforcement

The Audit Committee is responsible for overseeing the enforcement of this Clawback Policy. In the event that a clawback is pursued, the Committee will make a determination based on the facts and circumstances, with input from legal counsel and other advisors as necessary. The Company will be instructed by the Audit Committee to take appropriate actions to recover the amounts due, including legal action if required.

Impact on Incentive Compensation

The Clawback Policy applies to all incentive compensation, including but not limited to annual cash bonuses, stock options, restricted stock, and performance-based compensation.

While the Company has not had to exercise the clawback provisions to date, it remains a critical component of the Company’s overall governance framework to ensure alignment between executive compensation and long-term stockholder value.

The Company’s Clawback Policy is described in detail in Exhibit 97 of this Form 10-K. A copy shall be available on the Company’s website or by request from Investor Relations.

James Lentz	3,500	-	-	-	-	-	3,500

Indemnification of Directors and Officers

The Company's Certificate of Incorporation limits personal liability for breach of fiduciary duty by its directors to the fullest extent permitted by the Delaware General Corporation Law (the "Delaware Law"). Such Certificate eliminates the personal liability of directors to the Company and its stockholders for damages occasioned by breach of fiduciary duty, except for liability based on breach of the director's duty of loyalty to the Company, liability for acts or omissions not made in good faith, liability for acts or omissions involving intentional misconduct, liability based on payments or improper dividends, liability based on violation of state securities laws, and liability for acts occurring prior to the date such provision was added. Any amendment to or repeal of such provisions in the Company's Certificate of Incorporation shall not adversely affect any right or protection of a director of the Company for with respect to any acts or omissions of such director occurring prior to such amendment or repeal.

In addition to the Delaware Law, the Company's Bylaws provide that officers and directors of the Company have the right to indemnification from the Company for liability arising out of certain actions to the fullest extent permissible by law. Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 (the "Act") may be permitted to directors, officers or persons controlling the Company pursuant to such indemnification provisions, the Company has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is therefore unenforceable.
