The net proceeds from the offering are to be used for research and development and corporate overhead purposes. Star has agreed to pay finder’s fees in the amount of ten (10%) percent of gross proceeds in cash, Units or in a combination of cash and Units. Any units payable as finder’s fees will be valued at $0.05 per unit.

The proceeds from the private placement will be used by Star for working capital (6 months – $882,000 – payroll, leases, insurance, G&A), payables ($411,000), and short term debt repayment ($125,000), for a total of $1,481,000. There will be no related party payments.

Offsetting these expenses will be minimum estimated revenues amounting to over $420,000 in the next 6 months. This estimate is based upon orders already booked and customer order patterns.

CEO Viraf S. Kapadia, noted:

“The past 15 months saw our revenues grow to over $1.1 million, compared with less than $100,000 per year previously. Based on current orders booked and customer order patterns, we expect sales for the next 12 months to reach $1.5 million.”
