Stock Quotes
The recent increase in trading volume in ITKG stock has spurred numerous inquiries about large spreads and apparent poor fills. Given the ITKG trading volume this week, we feel it is worth revisiting a topic we covered a few months ago in the Company Corner.
Over the last several months, several market makers, most notably Knight, have chosen not to publish their bid and ask on the OTCBB quotation system. Instead they are posting on the Pink Sheet OTC Market combo system. As a result, depending on who you get your quotes from, you may not be getting an accurate bid/ask. For example, Yahoo quotes only include the OTCBB quote system, which does not include Knight and several other market makers. So, if you use Yahoo for quotes, you are not receiving accurate information. I only mentioned Yahoo because it is widely used, but most quote systems are not currently reporting an accurate bid/ask. By the way, this applies to all OTCBB stocks, not just ITKG.
Until your quote system makes the appropriate changes to include both systems you can use www.otcmarkets.com which currently provides live bid/ask from both systems. The last trade on this system is delayed and the level 2 only includes the market makers from the Pink OTC Market.
It is important to note that most, but not all, trading desks operate using a consolidated system which takes in to account the best bid/ask from the two systems combined. It is possible though that a trading desk is not operating under a consolidated system which makes it possible for a market order to fill at a price other than the best bid/ask. To avoid this problem, it is best to use limit orders and avoid market orders.

Clarification of Recent Press Release
The 28 September 2010 press release, Integral Announces 6th License on ElectriPlast™, contained a typographical error in paragraph three. The last sentence in that paragraph should have read, "Integral has begun to manufacture the blends and anticipates that the pellets will be shipped by the end of September 2010."

The Progress of Mo
In the brief 13 months since Mo Zeidan and his team of electrical engineers and materials experts joined Integral, we have experienced steady and significant progress toward our goal of commercializing our proprietary ElectriPlast™ technology. During that time, Mo worked very closely with the independent laboratories that tested ElectriPlast™ and he subsequently published the 8 data sheets that have generated enthusiastic responses from many industries. Moreover, he established the Integral laboratory, which was instrumental in expediting the initial testing of numerous materials. As a result of the expertise Mo and his team brought to Integral, we have signed 3 additional licensing agreements in the last year. Also, Mo and his team have worked in concert with a licensee to perfect and advance our ElectriPlast™ wire technology.
Mo's vision and plan for the commercialization of ElectriPlast™ has enabled the company to develop strategies and focus on those markets which we can penetrate quickly. In this regard, Mo and his team of engineers and materials experts have provided expert guidance and solved many intricate problems, while serving as the end users' full-service support team at Integral as they began the switch to ElectriPlast™.
Mo's reputation within the industry has enabled us to develop significant relationships that would ordinarily take years to establish. Moreover, his past experience, sterling reputation and industry-wide relationships are proving to be invaluable to Integral. We look forward to more great things from Mo Zeidan and his dedicated team of experts in the coming year.

OTC Bulletin Board Quotes
We have been getting alot of questions lately in regards to large spreads at times on our stock and we feel this is worth spending a little time to explain.
What has happened over the last few months is that several market makers, most notably Knight, have chosen not to publish their bid and ask on the OTCBB quotation system. Instead they are posting on the Pink Sheet/OTCBB combo system. As a result, depending on who you get your quotes from, you may not be getting the actual bid/ask. For example, Yahoo quotes only include the OTCBB quote system, which does not include Knight and several other market makers. So, if you are using Yahoo for quotes, you are not receiving accurate information. I only mentioned Yahoo because it is widely used, but most quote systems are not currently reporting an accurate bid/ask. By the way, this applies to all OTCBB stocks, not just ITKG.
Until your the quote system makes the appropriate changes to include both systems you can use www.otcmarkets.com which currently includes the bid/ask from both systems. It is delayed but it is a free system.

Bright Lights Conference
As many of you know we presented at the MDB Bright Lights Conference, May 10-13 in San Francisco. We were very impressed with MDB's organization of the conference and the quality of the speakers. The conference revolved around Intellectual Property(IP). The speakers were experts in various aspects of IP such as: patent protection, patent infringement, commercializing IP, valuing IP, licensing your patents, strategic partnerships.
In attendance at the conference were hedge fund managers, mutual fund managers, individual investors, and investment bankers. I do not have an exact number but there were around 300 registered attendees. Each of the Bright Lights companies was assigned a 30 minute time slot to present, each company was also assigned a room, where after the presentation a more thorough conversation could take place. The company presentations were held throughout the day on Tuesday and Wednesday. I attended 4 of the presentations and there was on average about 10 people in attendance at the presentations. Also, during each day, companies had the opportunity to meet 1 on 1 with various people.
In the course of the 3 days, we met 1 0n 1 with 3 hedge funds managers, 2 mutual fund managers and 4 high net worth investors. We also had the opportunity to meet with another 6 companies that provided us insight into marketing, IP protection, patent infringement, IP expansion and patent valuation. As I stated earlier, we could not have been more pleased about quality of the people we were able to meet with.
Wednesday at 11:00 was our presentation, this was fortunate because no one followed us and we were able to stay in our room for the break out session. Bill Robinson gave the presentation. The presentation was an overview of ElectriPlast and some if it's applications. We did not get into anything very technical, the intention was to simply tell our story, if there were technical questions, we would have plenty of time to address those after the presentation. I would guess there were around 20 people in attendance, there were a few more that came in towards the end, so I am unsure of an exact number. At the beginning of the presentation each person was handed a small bag containing ElectriPlast pellets. The presentation lasted approximately 20 minutes. At the conclusion, Bill opened it up for questions. The Q&A lasted approximately 45 minutes. We were pleased that there was this much interest in the product. We also had sample parts and test plaques available for everyone to see. It was exciting for us to see people "light up" when they were able to actually see the material work. We brought along a multi-tester so those in attendance could test the conductivity of the material. We also had a light made out of ElectriPlast with the bulbs embedded in the material. The light drew quite a bit of attention as well. It is safe to say, everyone left the presentation intrigued with the possibilities of ElectriPlast.
The conference was a huge success for Integral. We were able to establish relationships that we believe will be valuable to the company now and into the future. Although this was not a stock promotion event, this will ultimately be a positive for our stock. We were well received by the investors and money managers we met with. Of course, there is a fair amount of due diligence these institutional type investors will conduct before making a substantial stock purchase. We are grateful that we had the opportunity to attend and tell our story and obtain valuable information from some of the greatest minds in the IP world. I want to be sure and thank MDB Capital and all of the sponsors for putting together such an informative event.
