About all I can say about the trading in JBII today is WOW.

In my years of trading, I heard about stock manipulation
that goes on in stocks, but play the big boards.
So today I set a monitor on JBII and was like SHOCKED
of what went on today. If this did not catch the
eye of some people today. Then JBII could very well
be a big winner. Because I have not witnessed a stock
with such a balance of more negative to positive
then this one and to have it increasing like it did is
BAZAAR to me.

"There is no employment agreement between Dr. Smith and the Company."

That was from the 8K filed when Jacobs was hired. Yesterday's 10K is the first time we've been told Smith was issued those 100,000 shares by the company as a "Share Based Award" (coincidentally on the same day he was appointed COO "with no employment agreement"). They appear in his ownership filings and past JBII financials but we're left to guess how he got them. I always assumed they were $.80 PIPE shares because of the timing.

This stock issuance now valued by the company at $555,000 made Smith the highest-paid JBII employee in 2010 by far - on paper. Those 100k shares were worth about $80k on Dec 31 so he theoretically now owes more in 2010 income taxes than the stock is worth.

"100,000 shares were issued to Jacob Smith on January 11, 2010. The closing share price on January 11, 2010 was $5.55."
