PART I

ITEM 1. BUSINESS

GENERAL

LecTec Corporation (the “Company” or “LecTec”) is an intellectual property (“IP”) licensing and holding company with $9,036,400 in cash, including FDIC insured investments, as of December 31, 2010. LecTec is pursuing a merger and acquisition strategy which is intended to leverage its cash asset and improve shareholder value and liquidity. LecTec holds multiple domestic and international patents based on its original hydrogel patch technology and has filed patent applications on a hand sanitizer patch. LecTec also has a licensing agreement (“Novartis Agreement”) with Novartis Consumer Health, Inc., under which LecTec receives royalties from time to time based upon a percentage of Novartis’ net sales of licensed products. LecTec takes legal action as necessary to protect its intellectual property and is currently involved in one patent infringement action against Prince of Peace Enterprises which is scheduled for trial in April 2011, with court ordered mediation to occur on March 30, 2011. LecTec in March, 2011 settled its patent infringement lawsuit against Chattem, Inc. for a one-time payment of $3,600,000. Such settlement proceeds are before paying contingent legal fees and prior to any tax effect. The LecTec hydrogel patch technology allows for a number of potential applications, while its anti-microbial hand sanitizer patch is intended to be dry, thereby rendering the patch harmless in the event that it is licked, chewed, or exposed to the eye. An initial prototype of the hand sanitizer patch has been developed and LecTec is exploring the engagement of a strategic partner to complete its hand sanitizer patch development. An effort to monetize products from LecTec’s intellectual property is also ongoing.

The Company was organized in 1977 as a Minnesota corporation and went public in December 1986. The Company’s principal executive office is located at 1407 South Kings Highway, Texarkana, Texas 75501, its telephone number is (903) 832-0993, its corporate internet Website is www.lectec.com, and the Company’s stock trades on the Over the Counter (“OTC”) Bulletin Board under the symbol LECT.OB.

NOVARTIS SUPPLY AND LICENSE AGREEMENT

In 2004, the Company entered into a supply and licensing agreement with Novartis. Under the Agreement, the Company granted Novartis an exclusive license (the “License”) to all of the intellectual property of the Company to the extent that it is used or is useful in the production of the vapor patches that Novartis is selling under the Agreement. The License will continue in effect for the duration of the patents’ life permitted under applicable law. Upon the expiration of the patents included in the licensed intellectual property, Novartis will have a non-revocable, perpetual, fully paid-up license to the intellectual property used or useful in the production of vapor patches for the pediatric and the adult cough/cold market. Novartis is required by the Agreement to pay royalties to the Company at an agreed upon percentage based on net sales of vapor patches by Novartis for each year the License is in effect.

During the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, the Company recorded revenue of $91,273 and $111,376, respectively, for royalties covered under the Agreement it has with Novartis. Year over year such royalties have declined and we anticipate that this trend will continue.

PATENT INFRINGEMENT LITIGATION

For the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, the Company recorded $0 and $24,800,000, respectively, in revenue related to the settlement of litigation against five defendants for patent infringement. The Company settled with three defendants during 2009, one defendant in March 2011, and will be going to trial against the remaining defendant in April 2011. See PART I, ITEM 3 of this Form 10-K for additional information.

STRATEGY AND BUSINESS PLAN

The Company’s strategy is focused on four major areas: (1) pursue merger/acquisition opportunities; (2) support our current litigation strategy; (3) engage a strategic partner to complete development of the hand sanitizer patch and pursue manufacturing and marketing/co-marketing arrangements; and (4) further monetization, if possible, of our IP portfolio, excluding our hand sanitizer patch, through licensing, selling or engaging strategic partners for all or a portion of our hydrogel IP. It is currently management’s intent to fund operations with royalty income from licensing agreements or from other income derived from protection of rights pertaining to the Company’s intellectual property in conjunction with reducing operational costs.

PATENTS AND TRADEMARKS

The Company’s policy is to protect its proprietary position by securing U.S. and foreign patents that cover the technology, inventions and improvements related to its business. The Company has 3 pending and 13 granted U.S. patents, multiple international pending and granted patents and a foreign application through the Patent Cooperation Treaty (“PCT”) related to its patch technologies. The Company’s issued U.S. patents have a remaining legal duration ranging from one to 11 years. Issued patents can later be held invalid by the patent office issuing the patent or by a court. The Company cannot be certain that its patents will not be challenged, invalidated or circumvented or that the rights granted under the Company’s patents will provide a competitive advantage.

The Company uses both patents and trade secrets to protect its proprietary property and information, but there can be no assurance that other parties will not independently develop the same or similar information to our detriment.

On July 25, 2008, the Company filed a complaint for patent infringement against five companies, alleging that those companies have infringed upon two of the Company’s patents relating to its medicated patch technology. The Company has subsequently settled with four of the parties for the Patents-In-Suit, as defined in Item 3 hereof. See PART I, ITEM 3 of this Form 10-K for additional information.

EMPLOYEES AND CONSULTANTS

At December 31, 2010, the Company had two full time employees and a five-member Board of Directors. On January 1, 2010, Mr. Judd Berlin, who was the Company’s former CEO and CFO, and Dr. Daniel Sigg, who was serving in the capacity as CSO, became full time employees of the Company. The Company also has a full time controller. Effective June 1, 2010 the Company entered into an Advisory Services Agreement with Mr. Berlin at which point he ceased to be an employee of the Company. Concurrently on June 1, 2010, Mr. Greg Freitag was employed by the Company to serve in the positions of Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer of the Company. Effective October 1, 2010 the Company entered into a Consulting Agreement with Dr. Sigg at which point he ceased to be an employee of the Company. Both Mr. Berlin and Dr. Sigg continue to serve the Company in a consulting capacity, however, Mr. Berlin has been provided notice of termination of his Advisor contract.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

Patent litigation is expensive and requires substantial amounts of management attention.

The eventual outcome of patent litigation is uncertain and involves substantial risks. We are expending significant amounts of time, money and management resources on intellectual property litigation, which could negatively affect our results of operations. Litigation against the last defendant is scheduled for April 2011, with court ordered mediation to occur on March 30, 2011. We cannot give any assurance to the outcome of our litigation efforts as there are many variables related to a jury trial. The anticipated monetary rewards and damages, if any, are uncertain.

The pursuit of merger and acquisition transactions is competitive and completion of such transaction may not have the desired outcome.

We are pursuing a merger and acquisition strategy which is intended to leverage our cash asset and improve shareholder value and liquidity. Competition for companies to merge with or acquire is extensive and include, but are not limited to, private equity firms, hedge funds, and operating entities. There can be no assurance that we will be able to complete such a transaction or be positioned to negotiate the most advantageous terms. Completion of a transaction will not assure that a liquid market for the Company’s stock will develop or the company will perform as anticipated to provide increased value to Company shareholders.

Our business plan may be dilutive to our existing shareholders.

We are considering business opportunities that, if completed, although intended to increase aggregate shareholder value, would result in existing shareholders experiencing dilution in their ownership interest. Also, additional dilution could result if funds are raised pursuant to such activity, or otherwise in the future, by the issuance of convertible debt or equity securities. If additional funds are raised by the issuance of debt or certain equity instruments, such as preferred stock, we may become subject to certain operational limitations, and such securities may have rights senior to those of existing holders of common stock. There can be no assurance that we will be successful in completing any transaction or in obtaining additional financing if necessary.

Patents and other proprietary rights provide uncertain protection of our proprietary information and our inability to protect a patent or other proprietary rights may adversely affect our business.

The patent and other proprietary rights position of companies such as ours is uncertain and involves complex legal and factual questions. Issued patents can later be held invalid by the patent office issuing the patent or by a court. We cannot assure you that our patents will not be challenged, invalidated or circumvented, or that the rights granted thereunder will provide us value. Many other organizations, with substantially greater resources than ours, are engaged in research and development of technologies and products.

Such organizations may currently have, or may obtain in the future, legally blocking proprietary rights, including patent rights, in one or more technologies, products or methods which we currently consider proprietary to us. The Company has taken steps and incurred expenses to protect and evaluate its patent portfolio in an effort to verify and determine the validity of the Company’s patent rights. The outcome of this evaluation is uncertain and could be challenged. Moreover, we can provide no assurance that confidentiality agreements, trade secrecy agreements or similar agreements intended to protect unpatented technology will provide the intended protection. Intellectual property litigation is extremely expensive and time-consuming, and it is often difficult, if not impossible, to predict the outcome of such litigation. Adverse outcomes regarding our intellectual property, including claimed infringement of the rights of others, could have a materially adverse effect on our business.

Expiration of our patents.

Our patents have a limited life and finite expiration period. Although we have new patents pending approval, including for the hand sanitizer patch, our Patents—In—Suit, as defined in Item 3 hereof, will expire in 2014.

We have limited staffing.

Our success is dependent upon the efforts of our Board of Directors and full time employees of the Company. As of December 31, 2010, the Company had two full-time employees’ whose efforts are focused on our external reporting requirements, maintaining our day-to-day operations, reducing costs, monitoring litigation activity and pursuing merger and acquisition opportunities. We are considered a small business issuer as defined under the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Current legislation related to the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (“SOX”) and the Company’s efforts to become compliant thereunder, have been and are expected to be costly to the Company despite the internal controls the Company has in place. If our full-time employees’ or members of our Board of Directors decide to depart from the Company, we could be adversely affected if suitable replacement personnel or directors are not quickly retained. The current financial condition and associated risks of the Company may make it difficult to retain and attract, if necessary, qualified personnel. We currently have a key man life insurance policy on our CEO, Greg Freitag in the amount of $2,000,000.

The price of our common stock could be highly volatile due to a number of factors.

The trading price of our common stock may fluctuate widely as a result of a number of factors, including:

	•		trading of our common stock on the OTC Bulletin Board;

	•		limited daily trading volume resulting in the lack of a liquid market;

	•		fluctuations in price and volume due to investor speculation, internet message postings, and other factors that may not be tied to the financial performance by the Company;

	•		outcomes related to the Company’s efforts to protect its patent portfolio;

	•		performance by the Company in the execution of its business plan;

	•		regulatory developments in both the United States and foreign countries;

	•		performance of products sold and advertised by licensees in the marketplace;

	•		economic and other external factors; and

	•		period-to-period fluctuations in financial results.

We do not meet the criteria to list our securities on an exchange such as The NASDAQ Stock Market and our common stock is illiquid and may be difficult to sell.

Trading of our common stock is conducted on the Over-The-Counter Bulletin Board (“OTCBB”). Generally, securities that are quoted on the OTCBB lack liquidity and analyst coverage. This may result in lower prices for our common stock than might otherwise be obtained if we met the criteria to list our securities on a larger or more established exchange, such as The NASDAQ Capital Market and could also result in a larger spread between the bid and asked prices for our common stock.

In addition, there has been only limited trading activity in our common stock. The relatively small trading volume will likely make it difficult for our shareholders to sell their common stock as, and when, they choose. As a result, investors may not always be able to resell shares of our common stock publicly at the time and prices that they feel are fair or appropriate.

The Company has one licensing agreement that provides an ongoing royalty stream.

The Company currently receives royalty income pursuant to a licensing Agreement it has with Novartis related to the sales of an adult vapor patch. Royalties resulting from such license provides very limited funds to continuing operations and are uncertain because of the acceptance of the product in the market place, severity of the cough, cold and flu seasons, marketing efforts by Novartis and other factors that the Company is unable to control. Year over year the Novartis royalties have declined and we anticipate that this trend will continue. Currently, the Company has no other licensing arrangements in place.

If licensees of our patents do not comply with regulatory requirements when marketing products which rely on our patents, our royalties could be negatively affected.

The research, development, manufacture, labeling, distribution, marketing and advertising of products that are sold by licensees in reliance on our patents are subject to extensive regulation by governmental regulatory authorities in the United States and other countries. Failure by such licensees to comply with regulatory requirements for marketing their products could subject them to regulatory or judicial enforcement actions, including, but not limited to, product recalls or seizures, injunctions, civil penalties, criminal prosecution, refusals to approve new products and suspensions and withdrawals of existing approvals. This in turn could decrease the revenues generated by such patent licensees and thereby decrease our royalty income.

If products relying on our patents are no longer regulated as over-the-counter products, our royalties could be negatively affected.

Currently, many of the therapeutic consumer products that are or could be sold in reliance on our patents are regulated as over-the-counter products. We cannot assure you that the FDA will continue to regulate these products as over-the-counter products. If the FDA changed its approach to regulating such therapeutic consumer products, the licensees would be faced with significant additional costs and may be unable to sell some or all of the products. Any such change could have a negative affect on the licensee’s revenues, which in turn could decrease our royalty income.

The issuance of new accounting pronouncements may have an impact on financial results.

The issuance of accounting pronouncements may affect the Company’s results from time to time depending on specific issues relevant to our Company, adoption dates, and alternatives the Company may choose with respect to the particular pronouncement.

ITEM 1B. UNRESOLVED STAFF COMMENTS

Not applicable.

ITEM 2. PROPERTIES

The Company currently has one leased facility in Texas and two record storage locations in Minnesota as of December 31, 2010.

In July 2008, the Company moved its corporate headquarter facilities (principal executive office) from Edina, Minnesota to Texarkana, Texas. In connection with this relocation, the Company entered into a Lease Agreement with Lockaway Storage, Inc. on July 23, 2008 (the “Texas Lease”), pursuant to which the Company agreed to lease approximately 1,200 square feet of space located at 1407 South Kings Highway, Texarkana, Texas 75501. In February 2010, the Company renewed the Texas Lease until March 1, 2011 at a monthly lease rate of $750 per month and has subsequently renewed the Texas lease until March 1, 2012 at a monthly lease rate of $750 per month. The Texas Lease contains customary representations, warranties, and covenants on the part of the Company and the landlord. In addition to the Texas Lease, the Company currently maintains two storage locations in Minnesota for record retention purposes at a cost of approximately $4,153 per year.

In January 2009, the Company entered into a lease amendment (the “Lease Amendment”) amending its lease dated May 23, 2003, between the Company and SMD Lincoln Investments (the “Minnesota Lease”), regarding the Company’s previous headquarters located at 5610 Lincoln Drive, Edina, Minnesota (the “Leased Premises”). The Lease Amendment renewed for successive one-month periods until the Minnesota Lease was terminated by the Company giving 30 days’ written notice to the landlord of its intention to vacate the Leased Premises by December 31, 2010. The Company used the space for liquidating saleable assets and managing an orderly wind down of operations at the Leased Premises. The Company maintained approximately 3,300 square feet of space at the Leased Premises. The Company has vacated the Leased Premises and terminated its obligations under the Lease Amendment effective December 31, 2010.

In July 2008, the Company opened an office in India, which was located at Level 2, Connaught Place, Bund Garden Road, Pune, India 411001, to explore research, development and manufacturing opportunities for its advanced skin interface technologies and products. The Company has terminated this lease and had no future obligations as of December 31, 2010.

ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

On July 25, 2008, we filed a complaint for patent infringement (the “Complaint”) against five companies, including Chattem, Inc. (Ticker: CHTT), Endo Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (Ticker: ENDP), Johnson & Johnson Consumer Company, Inc. (Ticker: JNJ), The Mentholatum Company, Inc. (Division of Rohto Pharmaceuticals, Ticker RPHCF.PK), and Prince of Peace Enterprises, Inc. (Private Company) (collectively, the “Defendants”) in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Texas. The Complaint alleges, among other things, that the Defendants infringed upon two of our patents (the “Patents—In—Suit”), which relate to our medicated patch technology. We sought to enjoin the Defendants from infringing the Patents—In—Suit and to recover monetary damages related to such infringement, as well as interest and litigation costs.

In October 2008, all five of the Defendants filed answers (the “Answers”) in response to the Complaint denying our claims therein, and asserting certain affirmative defenses and counterclaims against us, including assertions that the Patents—In—Suit are invalid and unenforceable, and claims for attorneys’ fees and costs. On October 20, 2008, we filed our replies to the Answers, denying such counterclaims and affirmative defenses, including the claims that the Patents—In—Suit are invalid and unenforceable.

On December 3, 2008, our counsel in the litigation, Rader, Fishman & Grauer PLLC (the “Counsel”), participated in a scheduling conference in this case. As a result of that conference, the Court scheduled a Markman hearing for May 6, 2010 and a final pretrial conference for January 3, 2011 to address any final matters before the start of trial on January 4, 2011.

In February 2009, Counsel filed with the Court a motion to preliminarily enjoin the five defendants from infringing the Patents-In Suit pending the trial.

On May 29, 2009, we entered into a Settlement Agreement and Mutual Release (the “Mentholatum Settlement Agreement”) with The Mentholatum Company (“Mentholatum”) to settle our claims against Mentholatum that Mentholatum infringed the Patents—In—Suit. Pursuant to the Mentholatum Settlement Agreement, Mentholatum paid us an aggregate of $600,000 in $100,000 monthly installments from May through October 2009. In addition, under the Mentholatum Settlement Agreement (a) we agreed to dismiss the litigation against Mentholatum with prejudice, (b) the parties agreed to mutual general releases of all claims other than their prospective obligations under the Mentholatum Settlement Agreement and claims arising after the date of the Mentholatum Settlement Agreement, (c) we agreed not to sue Mentholatum or Rohto Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd., the parent company of Mentholatum, for any infringement of the Patents—In—Suit, any patent that claims priority, directly or indirectly, from the Patents—In—Suit, or any foreign counterparts of the Patents—In—Suit, and (d) we agreed not to transfer any such patents unless the transferee agrees to be bound by the covenant not to sue. Mentholatum and Rohto agreed not to challenge the validity or enforceability of such patents. The proceeds received from this settlement were reduced by the amounts due to the Rader firm per our contingent fee arrangement, out of pocket expenses, and other costs incurred related to depositions of parties in the infringement lawsuits, travel expenses, and other related costs. We received approximately $350,000 in net cash proceeds from the Mentholatum settlement.

On November 11, 2009, we entered into a Settlement and License Agreement (the “Endo Settlement Agreement”) with Endo Pharmaceuticals Inc. (“Endo”). Pursuant to the Endo Settlement Agreement, Endo agreed to pay us a one—time license fee of $23,000,000 and we granted to Endo an exclusive license to the Patents—In—Suit for use in the field of prescription pain medicines and treatment. In addition, under the Endo Settlement Agreement: (a) the parties agreed to the dismissal of the litigation with prejudice and without costs; (b) we agreed to release all claims against Endo that were asserted by or could have been asserted by us against Endo in the litigation or that relate to, arise from or are in any manner connected to the Patents—In—Suit; (c) Endo agreed to release all claims against us that were asserted by or could have been asserted by Endo against us in the litigation; (d) we agreed not to sue Endo for any infringement of any U.S. or foreign patents or patent applications owned or controlled by us as of November 11, 2009, any continuation, continuation—in—part or divisional of any such patent, any U.S. patent resulting from the reissue or reexamination of any such patents and any U.S. or foreign patent or patent application claiming common priority with any of such patents; and (e) we agreed not to transfer either of the Patents—In—Suit or any other such patent unless the transferee agrees in writing to the terms and conditions of the Endo Settlement Agreement. We received approximately $16,000,000 in net cash proceeds from this settlement in December 2009. From these proceeds, we replenished the trust fund we have with the Rader Firm with $1,000,000 dollars to fund ongoing patent litigation. The trust fund balance at December 31, 2010 was $432,344 compared to a balance of $931,954 at December 31, 2009. If funds are not completely expended, then the remaining cash balance in the trust fund will revert to us.

On December 18, 2009, we entered into a Settlement Agreement and Mutual Release (the “JJCC Settlement Agreement”) with Johnson & Johnson Consumer Companies, Inc. (“JJCC”) to settle our claims against JJCC that JJCC infringed our Patents—In—Suit. Pursuant to the JJCC Settlement Agreement, JJCC paid us a one—time sum of $1,200,000 and we granted to JJCC a fully paid—up, world—wide, non—exclusive and irrevocable license to (a) the Patents—In—Suit, (b) any patent that claims priority, directly or indirectly, from the Patents—In—Suit (the “Family Patents”), including, without limitation, U.S. Patent Nos. 6,096,333, 6,096,334 and 6,361,790, (c) any foreign counterparts of the Patents—In—Suit or any of the Family Patents to make, have made, sell, offer for sale, use, import, export or otherwise dispose of any apparatus, method, product, component, service, product by process or any device associated with JJCC or its subsidiaries, affiliates or other controlled entities, for the past, present and future until the expiration of the last patent described above and (d) any patents that we own or currently have an interest in to make, have made, sell, offer for sale, use, import, export or otherwise dispose of any non—prescription, non—occlusive medicated hydrogel patch products that are used to alleviate pain associated with JJCC (collectively, the License Grant”); provided, however, that the License Grant under clauses (a), (b) and (c) above excludes over—the—counter vapor patches which emit vapors that provide cough and cold relief when inhaled, and prescription, non—occlusive, medicated hydrogel patch products that are used to alleviate pain. The proceeds received from this settlement were reduced by the amounts due to the Rader firm per our contingent fee arrangement, out of pocket expenses, and other costs incurred related to depositions of parties in the infringement lawsuits, travel expenses, and other related costs. After these expenses we received net cash proceeds of approximately $720,000.

On May 6, 2010 a Markman hearing occurred in Texarkana, Texas and the US District Court for the Eastern District of Texas issued Orders concerning it on May 20, 2010. The first Order was based on our motion to strike an exhibit from Chattem, Inc.’s Opposition Brief, and our motion to strike was granted by the Court. The second Order issued by the court denied Defendant’s motion request for leave to file for summary judgment as to non-infringement, but granted the request for leave to file for summary judgment as to invalidity of patents. The Court also issued its Markman ruling interpreting the terms “cured” and “non-occlusive” contained in our patents.

We engaged in voluntary mediation with Chattem, Inc. in July 2010. A Report of Mediation by the Hon. Harlan A. Martin was filed stating that the parties were unable to reach settlement. On September 28, 2010 the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Texas issued an Order regarding Prince of Peace’s and Chattem’s (“Defendants”) requests to file motions for summary judgment: (1) of invalidity due to the on-sale bar of 35 U.S.C. § 102(b); and (2) regarding Defendants’ defenses of equitable estoppels and laches and our motions: (3) on, and to preclude testimony related to, Defendants’ 35 U.S.C. § 102(b) defense based on the Aqua-Patch; and (4) on infringement by Defendants. The Order granted Defendants’ the right to file a summary judgment motion regarding on-sale bar, but denied them the opportunity regarding the equitable defenses of estoppel and laches. With regard to the equitable issues, the Court stated that the custom in patent cases is to hold a separate bench proceeding after the jury trial on such issues. The Order granted us the right to file summary judgment motions on infringement and to preclude Defendants Aqua-Patch defense. The court denied all summary judgments motions.

On March 23, 2011, the Company entered into a Confidential Settlement Agreement and Mutual Release (the “Chattem Settlement Agreement”) with Chattem to settle the Company’s claims against Chattem that Chattem infringed the Patents-In-Suit. Pursuant to the Settlement Agreement, Chattem will pay the Company a one—time sum of $3,600,000 and the Company will grant to Chattem a fully paid—up, world—wide, non—exclusive and irrevocable license to (a) the Patents—In—Suit, (b) any patent that claims priority, directly or indirectly, from the Patents—In—Suit (the “Family Patents”) and (c) any foreign counterparts of the Family Patents, for use in connection with any product or process sold or used by Chattem, other than products covered by exclusive licenses previously granted to other companies. Such settlement proceeds are before paying contingent legal fees and prior to any tax effect. In addition, under the Settlement Agreement the Company and Chattem entered into mutual releases of all claims.

We are diligent in pursuing our patent infringement lawsuit against the remaining defendant Prince of Peace Enterprises, Inc. and we are preparing for trial which is scheduled for April 2011, with court ordered mediation to occur on March 30, 2011. We are unable to determine, based on current information available, whether we will be successful in our legal pursuits against the remaining defendant. We give no assurance as to the outcome of the ongoing lawsuit or whether our Patents—In—Suit and claims asserted in the related patents could be deemed invalid by a court of law.

As of March 30, 2011, the Company had 4,305,026 shares of common stock outstanding, and approximately 229 common shareholders of record, based upon information received from our stock transfer agent. However, this number does not include beneficial owners whose shares were held of record by nominees or broker dealers. The Company estimates that there are approximately less than 850 individual owners.

At a Board of Directors meeting held on December 21, 2009, the Board declared a cash dividend of $1.00 per share to shareholders of record at January 29, 2010 that was payable on February 12, 2010. The Company distributed $4,298,350 on February 12, 2010 to its shareholders. The Company may pay future dividends based upon excess cash the Company may have from litigation income or royalty and licensing income that exceeds operating expenses that the Company is likely to incur. However, there can be no assurance that the Company will pay any future dividends. The Company did not declare or make any dividend distributions in 2010.

We did not repurchase any of our securities during the fourth quarter of 2010. We had no sales of unregistered securities during 2010 that have not been previously disclosed in a Current Report on Form 8-K or Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q.

See Item 12 of Part III of this annual report on Form 10-K for disclosure regarding our compensation plans under which our equity securities are authorized for issuance.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

OVERVIEW

Our business plan is focused on four major areas: (1) pursue merger/acquisition opportunities; (2) support our current litigation strategy; (3) engage a strategic partner to complete development of the hand sanitizer patch and pursue manufacturing and marketing/co-marketing arrangements; and (4) further monetization, if possible, of our IP portfolio, excluding our hand sanitizer patch, through licensing, selling or engaging strategic partners for all or a portion of our hydrogel IP. It is currently management’s intent to fund operations with royalty income from licensing agreements or from other income derived from protection of rights pertaining to the Company’s intellectual property in conjunction with reducing operational costs.

Merger/Acquisition Opportunities. We believe that our cash balance and public company status provide the potential for merger/acquisition opportunities. In evaluating any such opportunities, primary consideration will be given to companies generating revenue and addressing sizable markets which we believe may attract significant investment interest. Any transaction under consideration should also be expected to provide increased liquidity for our shareholders. Our current intention is not to seek multiple investments, but to focus our efforts on identifying a single transaction in which to apply our cash balance and public company status. Although opportunities related to our current business areas will be of greatest interest, we will evaluate situations in other areas in which we have the capability to make an appropriate and informed review.

Litigation. In April 2007, we were granted a re-examination certificate related to a patent that we hold. During 2008, we retained a legal firm on a contingency fee basis to assist us in enforcing our rights related to potential patent infringement claims by the Company. As a result, we sued five parties and, during 2009, we settled our claims with three of such parties and in March, 2011 settled with a fourth. We remain diligent in pursuing our patent infringement claims against the remaining party, with trial set for April 2011. See PART I, ITEM 3 of this Form 10-K for additional information.

Hand Sanitizer Patch. Due to the growing worldwide concern regarding the spread of germs through hand contact, we filed patents for, and screened, identified and tested technologies suitable for, an anti-microbial hand sanitizer patch. This activity has lead to the development of a prototype that is ready to begin efficacy and other testing to determine its market viability. We will seek to engage a strategic partner to complete the development of our hand sanitizer patch and pursue manufacturing and marketing/co-marketing arrangements. Because the hand sanitizer patch is a consumer product, we believe that engaging an established strategic partner is the best go-to-market strategy because we will be able to leverage any such partner’s competencies regarding the development and manufacturing of products, customer requirements and marketing and distribution strategies. We expect that Asian entities will provide the greatest opportunities because the Asian topical patch market represents the most significant portion of the worldwide market. If we are not able to engage an acceptable strategic partner, we will evaluate how, or if, to proceed with our hand sanitizer patch in light of progress made in our other strategic initiatives.

IP Portfolio, Excluding Hand Sanitizer Patch. We completed an evaluation of our IP portfolio, which included conducting both a current analysis of our portfolio and referring to our 2007 extensive market research and intellectual property report. Based on this evaluation, we believe that the best strategy to derive further value, if any, from our IP portfolio, other than our hand sanitizer patch, is to pursue licensing of this IP, and to engage strategic partners to help us further develop, if necessary, manufacture and/or market this IP, or sell all or a portion of this IP. At this time, we do not intend to conduct any further research and development with respect to our hydrogel IP. We will begin to identify those parties that we believe may have interest in this IP and approach them. If we are not able to identify suitable alternatives regarding the licensing, sale or strategic partnering of our hydrogel IP, we will reevaluate our position with respect to the foregoing in light of progress made in our other strategic initiatives.

Our strategy described above will remain fluid as we pursue each area of it. Although we believe that our strategy will result in increased value for our shareholders, there can be no assurance that our strategy, or any component thereof, will be successful.

COMPARISON OF THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2010 AND 2009

Results of Operations

The Company recorded revenue of $91,273 and $24,911,376 for the year ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. The decrease in revenue for the year ended December 31, 2010 from 2009 was primarily due to the lack of infringement revenue of $24.8 million as a result of no litigation being settled or concluded during 2010. Royalty income also decreased $20,103 for the year ended December 31, 2010, from the comparable period in 2009. The decrease in royalty income for 2010 from the comparable period in 2009 was due to a declining trend of sales by Novartis of its patch products using our licensed IP. The royalty income recorded during the year ended December 31, 2010 and 2009 was based on information provided by Novartis.

Our operating expenses decreased $7,015,797 to $1,939,798 for the year ended December 31, 2010, from operating expenses of $8,955,595 for the comparable period in 2009. The decrease in operating expenses for 2010 resulted primarily from a decrease in legal expenses of approximately $7.3 million due to the lack of infringement income and related contingent settlement fees for 2010, partially offset with increases in salaries, management and director transition costs, consulting, litigation expenses and travel expenses. Actions to reduce our operating expenses beginning in the second half of the year are being realized in a number of areas including compensation, rent, consulting fees, and professional services. However, operating expenses relating to litigation, IP and M&A activity will continue to fluctuate based upon activity going forward.

The Company recorded a net loss of $(1.32) million, or $(0.31) per basic and diluted share for the year ended December 31, 2010, compared to net income of $15.0 million, or $3.51 and $3.49 per basic and diluted share, respectively, for the same period in 2009.

Income Taxes

The Company recorded an income tax benefit of $509,047 for the year ended December 31, 2010, compared to income tax expense for the year ended December 31, 2009 of $1.04 million. For 2009, the provision was principally the result of the income derived from infringement revenue. In 2009, the Company also reversed its valuation allowance on the net operating loss carry forwards as they were significantly utilized in 2009.

Effect of Inflation

Inflation has not had a significant impact on the Company’s operations or cash flows.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Cash and cash equivalents decreased $8,689,280 for the year ended December 31, 2010, to $7,076,827, from cash and cash equivalents of $15,766,107 at December 31, 2009. In addition to cash and cash equivalents, the Company had investments in certificates of deposits that were insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) of 1,959,573 with maturities of less than six months at December 31, 2010. The decrease in cash and cash equivalents resulted primarily from a cash dividend payment of $4,298,350 and from our current operating expenses. Our litigation escrow account and other prepaid expenses decreased $499,610 for the twelve month period ended December 31, 2010 to $432,344 as a result of expenses for preparation of our April 2011 trial.

The Company had no material commitments for capital expenditures at December 31, 2010 or 2009.

The Company had working capital of $9,972,819 and a current ratio of 88.21 at December 31, 2010 compared to working capital of $11,025,789 and a current ratio of 2.92 at December 31, 2009. The decrease in working capital and increase in the current ratio at December 31, 2010, compared to December 31, 2009, was primarily due to our payment of a cash dividend of $4,298,350, our payment of income taxes of approximately $1.1 million, coupled with our net loss of $1,316,299.

Shareholders’ equity decreased $1,032,041 to $10,029,128 at December 31, 2010 from $11,061,169 at December 31, 2009, due to the net loss we incurred during the year ended December 31, 2010, offset with stock options exercised and compensation expense related to the grant of a stock options during 2010.

The Company entered into a contingency fee agreement with Rader, Fishman & Grauer PLLC, who is our legal counsel in the pending patent infringement litigation. See Part I, Item 3 of this Form 10-K for additional information concerning this litigation. Under this agreement, the Rader firm will receive a percentage of any recovery in the litigation or other proceeds resulting from a settlement of the litigation as its primary compensation for representing the Company in this matter. The Company is also obligated (i) to reimburse the Rader firm for its out-of-pocket expenses in connection with the litigation through an up front advance of $50,000 and monthly advances of $10,000, and (ii) to engage and pay for expert services needed in the litigation, provided that the Company’s obligation to advance such funds and pay such expert expenses will be suspended if the Company’s cash levels fall below certain thresholds. Thereafter, if the Company’s cash levels exceed such thresholds, or there is a recovery in or other proceeds from the litigation, then the Rader firm will be reimbursed for any expenses it has covered while such advances and payments were suspended. To date the Company has expended approximately $8.5 million (in aggregate) under the agreement for advances to the Rader firm and payments for expert services.

Interest income of $16,239 (0.20% average annual interest) for the year ended December 31, 2010, compared to interest income for the year ended December 31, 2009 of $1,954 (1.0% average annual interest), was higher due to greater cash assets being available in fiscal 2010. Interest rates continue to be at historical lows and we continue to weigh risks against returns, taking a conservative approach to our cash investment strategy. Certain action has been, and will continue to be, taken to try to increase interest returns, however, we do not believe there will be a significant positive change in our interest returns for the foreseeable future. However, we have been able to receive slighter higher rates on part of our cash assets in accounts that are FDIC insured.

The Company currently estimates that it will receive less than $75,000 per year in royalty income based upon historical royalty income and cash receipt activity from Novartis, coupled with the downward trending of this income. Royalty income is uncertain because it is subject to factors that the Company cannot control. There can be no assurance that the anticipated revenue stream or anticipated expenses will be as planned, or that the Company will be successful in negotiating new licensing opportunities with Novartis or other companies, or having success in our business plan, due to the uncertainties and risks described in “Risk Factors” in Item 1A. of this Form 10-K.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Management believes that the Company has not adopted any critical accounting policies, which, if changed, would result in a material change in financial estimates, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009. Critical accounting policies are as follows:

Revenue Recognition

Royalty and licensing fees are recognized when earned under the terms of the Novartis Agreement, based upon sales information of licensed products provided by Novartis, and when collection is reasonably assured. Infringement income is recognized when settlement agreements have been signed and collection is reasonably assured.

Patent Costs

The carrying value of patent costs is reviewed periodically or when factors indicating impairment are present. The amount of impairment loss is measured as the amount by which the carrying value of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets. The Company believes that no impairment existed at December 31, 2010 or 2009.

Royalty Receivable

The Company grants credit to its only customer, Novartis, in the normal course of business and under the terms contained in the Agreement. Pursuant to the Agreement, Novartis pays royalty income within the terms defined in the Agreement and management believes, based upon past payment experience, that any and all amounts outstanding are fully collectible. At December 31, 2010, the Company had a royalty receivable due to the Company of $42,117 which was collected in January 2011. At December 31, 2009, the Company had a royalty receivable due to the Company of $31,525, which was collected in January 2010.

Use of Estimates

In preparing financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Share-Based Compensation

The Company accounts for share-based compensation in accordance with ASC Topic 718, Compensation-Stock Compensation, which requires that compensation cost relating to share-based payment transactions (including the cost of all employee stock options) be recognized in the financial statements. That cost is measured based on the estimated fair value of the equity or liability instruments issued. The Company recorded share-based compensation expense of $245,258 during the year ended December 31, 2010. The Company did not record any share-based compensation expense during the year ended December 31, 2009.

OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

The Company does not have any “off-balance sheet arrangements” (as such term is defined in Item 303 of Regulation S-K) that are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, operating results, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Shareholders and
Board of Directors of
LecTec Corporation

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of LecTec Corporation as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, and the related statements of operations, shareholders’ equity, and cash flows for the years then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, 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. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of LecTec Corporation as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

LecTec Corporation
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 31, 2010 and 2009

NOTE A — SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

LecTec is an intellectual property (“IP”) licensing and holding company with approximately $9 million in cash, cash equivalents, and Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) insured certificates of deposit at December 31, 2010. LecTec is pursuing a merger and acquisition strategy which is intended to leverage its cash asset and improve shareholder value and liquidity. LecTec holds multiple domestic and international patents based on its original hydrogel patch technology and has filed patent applications on a hand sanitizer patch. LecTec also has a licensing agreement (“Novartis Agreement”) with Novartis Consumer Health, Inc., under which LecTec receives royalties from time to time based upon a percentage of Novartis’ net sales of licensed products. LecTec takes legal action as necessary to protect its intellectual property and is currently involved in one patent infringement action. The LecTec hydrogel patch technology allows for a number of potential applications, while its anti-microbial hand sanitizer patch is intended to be dry, thereby rendering the patch harmless in the event that it is licked, chewed, or exposed to the eye. An initial prototype of the hand sanitizer patch has been developed and LecTec is exploring the engagement of a strategic partner to complete its hand sanitizer patch development. An effort to monetize products from LecTec’s intellectual property is also ongoing. A summary of the Company’s significant accounting policies consistently applied in the preparation of the accompanying financial statements follows:

Use of Estimates

Credit Risk

A significant amount of cash was deposited in one financial institution. Certain amounts of the Company’s cash exceed federally insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses and does not believe it is exposed to any significant credit risk on cash and cash equivalents.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid temporary investments purchased with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents includes cash on hand of $52,532 and a money market account with a balance of $7,024,295 at December 31, 2010, which is not insured by the FDIC.

Certificates of Deposit

During 2010, the Company purchased certificates of deposit which matured in January and February 2011. The certificates earned interest at 0.15% to 0.25% primarily because of their short term maturities of six months or less. These certificates of deposit were recorded at fair market value at December 31, 2010. All the certificates of deposit were fully insured by the FDIC.

Royalty Receivable

The Company grants credit to its only customer, Novartis, in the normal course of business and under the terms contained in the Novartis Agreement. Pursuant to the Novartis Agreement, Novartis pays the royalty income within the terms defined in the Novartis Agreement.

Patent Costs

Patent costs consist primarily of the cost of applying for patents and are amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of the asset, which is generally five years. Patent maintenance costs are expensed as incurred.

The carrying value of patent costs is reviewed periodically or when factors indicating impairment are present. The impairment loss is measured as the amount by which the carrying value of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets. The Company believes that no impairment existed at December 31, 2010 and 2009.

Revenue Recognition

Royalty and licensing fees are recognized when earned under the terms of the Novartis Agreement based upon sales information of licensed products provided by Novartis, and when collection is reasonably assured. Infringement income is recognized when settlement agreements have been signed and collection is reasonably assured.

Income Taxes

Deferred income taxes are provided for temporary differences between the financial reporting and tax basis of assets and liabilities. Deferred taxes are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of the enactment.

In evaluating the ultimate realization of deferred income tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that the deferred income tax assets will be realized. Management establishes a valuation allowance if it is more likely than not that all or a portion of the deferred income tax assets will not be utilized. The ultimate realization of deferred income tax assets is dependent on the generation of future taxable income, which must occur prior to the expiration of the net operating loss carryforwards.

Income (Loss) Per Common Share

Basic income (loss) per common share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted income (loss) per common share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding and common share equivalents related to stock options and warrants when dilutive.

Common stock options to purchase 454,000 shares of common stock with a weighted average exercise price of $3.79 were outstanding at December 31, 2010. As the Company had a loss from operations in 2010, those shares were excluded from the loss per common share computations because they were antidilutive.

Diluted net loss per common share for the year ended December 31, 2009 was computed as follows:


Net income for per share computation	$	15,046,332


Weighted-average common shares outstanding		4,290,026
Incremental shares from assumed exercise of dilutive instruments:
Options and warrants		19,232


Shares outstanding — diluted		4,309,258

Share-Based Compensation

The Company accounts for share-based compensation in accordance with ASC Topic 718, Compensation-Stock Compensation, which requires that compensation cost relating to share-based payment transactions (including the cost of all employee stock options) be recognized in the financial statements. That cost is measured based on the estimated fair value of the equity or liability instruments issued. Share-based payment accounting covers a wide range of share-based compensation arrangements including share options, restricted share plans, performance-based awards, share appreciation rights, and employee share purchase plans.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The carrying value of current financial assets and liabilities approximates their fair values due to their short-term nature.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2010-29 “Business Combinations (Topic 805) — Disclosure of Supplementary Pro Forma Information for Business Combinations.” If a public entity presents comparative financial statements, the entity should disclose revenue and earnings of the combined entity as though the business combination that occurred during the current year had occurred as of the beginning of the comparable prior annual reporting period only. ASU 2010-29 also expands the supplementary pro forma disclosures. ASU 2010-29 is effective prospectively for business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after the beginning of the first annual reporting period beginning on or after December 15, 2010. ASU 2010-29 will only affect the Company if there are future business combinations.

In October 2009, FASB issued an update to the accounting and reporting guidance for multiple-deliverable revenue arrangements. The new accounting guidance removes the separation criterion that objective and reliable evidence of the fair value of the undelivered item must exist for the delivered items to be considered a separate unit or separate units of accounting. This FASB-issued update requires an entity to determine the selling price of qualifying deliverables based on a hierarchy of evidence. In considering the hierarchy of evidence, the entity must first determine the selling prices by using vendor-specific objective evidence (“VSOE”), if it exists; otherwise, third-party evidence (“TPE”) of selling price must be used. If neither VSOE nor TPE of selling price exists for a deliverable, an entity must use its best estimate of the selling price for that deliverable in allocating consideration among deliverables in an arrangement. This update is effective for arrangements entered into in the fiscal years beginning on or after June 15, 2010, unless the vendor elects early application. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on our financial position and results of operations.

In January 2010, FASB issued an update to the existing disclosure requirements related to fair value measurements which requires entities to make new disclosures about recurring or nonrecurring fair value measurements including significant transfers into and out of Level 1 and Level 2 fair value measurements and information on purchases, sales, issuances, and settlements on a gross basis in the reconciliation of Level 3 fair value measurements. This update is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2009, except for Level 3 reconciliation disclosures which are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2010. The adoption of the required portion of this standard did not have a material impact on our financial position or results of operations.

In April 2010, FASB issued new accounting guidance to provide clarification on the classification of a share-based payment award as either equity or a liability. Under ASC 718, Compensation-Stock Compensation, a share-based payment award that contains a condition that is not a market, performance, or service condition is required to be classified as a liability. The amendments clarify that a share-based payment award with an exercise price denominated in the currency of a market in which a substantial portion of the entity’s equity securities trades should not be considered to contain a condition that is not a market, performance, or service condition. Therefore, such an award should not be classified as a liability if it otherwise qualifies as equity. The amendments are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning on or after December 15, 2010. Earlier application is permitted. Adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on our financial position or results of operations.

In May 2010, FASB issued new guidance on the use of the milestone method of recognizing revenue for research and development arrangements under which consideration to be received by the vendor is contingent upon the achievement of certain milestones. The update provides guidance on the criteria that should be met for determining whether the milestone method of revenue recognition is appropriate. A vendor can recognize consideration in its entirety as revenue in the period in which the milestone is achieved only if the milestone meets all criteria to be considered substantive. Additional disclosures describing the consideration arrangement and the entity’s accounting policy for recognition of such milestone payments are also required. The new guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within such fiscal years, beginning on or after June 15, 2010, with early adoption permitted.

NOTE B — INFRINGEMENT INCOME

On May 29, 2009, the Company entered into a Settlement Agreement and Mutual Release (the “Mentholatum Settlement Agreement”) with the Mentholatum Company (“Mentholatum”) to settle the Company’s claims against Mentholatum that Mentholatum infringed two of the Company’s patents (“Patents—In—Suit”) related to the Company’s medicated patch technology (the “Litigation”). Pursuant to the Mentholatum Settlement Agreement, Mentholatum paid the Company an aggregate of $600,000 in $100,000 monthly installments from May through October 2009. In addition, under the Mentholatum Settlement Agreement (a) the Company agreed to dismiss the Litigation against Mentholatum with prejudice, (b) the parties agreed to mutual general releases of all claims other than their prospective obligations under the Mentholatum Settlement Agreement and claims arising after the date of the Mentholatum Settlement Agreement, (c) the Company agreed not to sue Mentholatum or Rohto Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd., the parent company of Mentholatum, for any infringement of the Patents—In—Suit, any patent that claims priority, directly or indirectly, from the Patents—In—Suit, or any foreign counterparts of the Patents—In—Suit, (d) the Company agreed not to transfer any such patents unless the transferee agrees to be bound by the covenant not to sue described above in clause (c), and (e). Mentholatum and Rohto agreed not to challenge the validity or enforceability of such patents.

As of December 31, 2009, Mentholatum had paid the Company $600,000 pursuant to the terms of the Mentholatum Settlement Agreement. The proceeds received from this settlement were reduced by the amounts due to the Rader firm per the Company’s contingent fee arrangement, out of pocket expenses, and other costs incurred related to depositions of parties in the infringement lawsuits, travel expenses, and other related costs. After these expenses the Company received net cash proceeds of approximately $350,000.

On November 6, 2009, the Company and Endo Pharmaceuticals Inc. (“Endo”) executed a Term Sheet that set forth the terms of a settlement and license agreement pursuant to which the parties would settle the Company’s claims against Endo that Endo infringed the Patents—In—Suit. On November 11, 2009, the Company entered into such Settlement and License Agreement (the “Endo Settlement Agreement”) with Endo and issued a press release announcing its entry into the Endo Settlement Agreement. On November 12, 2009 the Company filed a Form 8-K with the Securities and Exchange Commission disclosing this event. Pursuant to the Endo Settlement Agreement, Endo agreed to pay the Company a one—time license fee of $23,000,000 and the Company agreed to grant to Endo an exclusive license to the Patents—In—Suit for use in the field of prescription pain medicines and treatment. In addition, under the Endo Settlement Agreement: (a) the parties agreed to the dismissal of the Litigation with prejudice and without costs; (b) the Company agreed to release all claims against Endo that were asserted by or could have been asserted by the Company against Endo in the Litigation or that relate to, arise from or are in any manner connected to the Patents—In—Suit; (c) Endo agreed to release all claims against the Company that were asserted by or could have been asserted by Endo against the Company in the Litigation; (d) the Company agreed not to sue Endo for any infringement of any U.S. or foreign patents or patent applications owned or controlled by the Company as of November 11, 2009, any continuation, continuation—in—part or divisional of any such patent, any U.S. patent resulting from the reissue or reexamination of any such patents and any U.S. or foreign patent or patent application claiming common priority with any of such patents; and (e) the Company agreed not to transfer either of the Patents—In—Suit or any other such patent unless the transferee agrees in writing to the terms and conditions of the Endo Settlement Agreement. The Company received approximately $16,000,000 in net cash proceeds from this settlement in December 2009. From these proceeds, the Company replenished the trust fund it has with the Rader Firm with $1,000,000 to fund ongoing patent litigation. The Trust fund balance at December 31, 2010 was $432,344 compared to a balance of $931,954 at December 31, 2009. If funds are not completely expended, then the remaining cash balance in the trust fund will revert to the Company.

On December 18, 2009, the Company entered into a Settlement Agreement and Mutual Release (the “JJCC Settlement Agreement”) with Johnson & Johnson Consumer Companies, Inc. (“JJCC”) to settle the Company’s claims against JJCC that JJCC infringed the Patents—In—Suit. Pursuant to the JJCC Settlement Agreement, JJCC paid the Company a one—time sum of $1,200,000 and the Company granted to JJCC a fully paid—up, world—wide, non—exclusive and irrevocable license to (a) the Patents—In—Suit, (b) any patent that claims priority, directly or indirectly, from the Patents—In—Suit (the “Family Patents”), including, without limitation, U.S. Patent Nos. 6,096,333, 6,096,334 and 6,361,790, (c) any foreign counterparts of the Patents—In—Suit or any of the Family Patents to make, have made, sell, offer for sale, use, import, export or otherwise dispose of any apparatus, method, product, component, service, product by process or any device associated with JJCC or its subsidiaries, affiliates or other

controlled entities, for the past, present and future until the expiration of the last patent described above and (d) any patents that the Company owns or currently has an interest in to make, have made, sell, offer for sale, use, import, export or otherwise dispose of any non—prescription, non—occlusive medicated hydrogel patch products that are used to alleviate pain (a “Patch Product”) associated with JJCC (collectively, the License Grant”); provided, however, that the License Grant under clauses (a), (b) and (c) above excludes over—the—counter vapor patches which emit vapors that provide cough and cold relief when inhaled, and prescription, non—occlusive, medicated hydrogel patch products that are used to alleviate pain. As of December 31, 2009, JJCC had paid the Company $1,200,000 pursuant to the terms of the Settlement Agreement. The proceeds received from this settlement were reduced by the amounts due to the Rader firm per the Company’s contingent fee arrangement, out of pocket expenses, and other costs incurred related to depositions of parties in the infringement lawsuits, travel expenses, and other related costs. After these expenses the Company received net cash proceeds of approximately $720,000.

In addition, under the JJCC Settlement Agreement: (w) the Company agreed to release, acquit and discharge JJCC and its direct and indirect customers and distributors from all claims, duties, obligations and causes of action relating to any matters of any kind, including those related to JJCC’s making, using, importing, selling or offering to sell Patch Products and the matters alleged in the Litigation; (x) JJCC agreed to release, acquit and discharge the Company and its direct and indirect customers and distributors from all claims, duties, obligations and causes of action relating to any matters of any kind, including any matters connected in any way with Patch Products sold by JJCC and the matters alleged in the Litigation; (y) the Company agreed not to assign or otherwise transfer the patents described above in the License Grant until the transferee agrees in writing to be bound by such licenses; and (z) JJCC agreed not to challenge or assist in any way in challenging the validity or enforceability of the Patents—In—Suit, any Family Patent or any foreign counterparts of the Patents—In—Suit or any of the Family Patents.

On March 23, 2011, the Company entered into a Confidential Settlement Agreement and Mutual Release (the “Chattem Settlement Agreement”) with Chattem to settle the Company’s claims against Chattem that Chattem infringed two of the Company’s patents related to the Company’s medicated patch technology. Pursuant to the Chattem Settlement Agreement, Chattem will pay the Company a one—time sum of $3,600,000 and the Company will grant to Chattem a fully paid—up, world—wide, non—exclusive and irrevocable license to (a) the Patents—In—Suit, (b) the Family Patents and (c) any foreign counterparts of the Family Patents, for use in connection with any product or process sold or used by Chattem, other than products covered by exclusive licenses previously granted to other companies. In addition, under the Chattem Settlement Agreement the Company and Chattem entered into mutual releases of all claims. The proceeds received from this settlement will be reduced by the amounts due to the Rader firm per the Company’s contingent fee arrangement.

NOTE C — NOVARTIS SUPPLY AND LICENSE AGREEMENT

In 2004, the Company entered into a supply and licensing agreement with Novartis (the Novartis Agreement). By December 31, 2004, the supply portion of the Novartis Agreement was completed and the Company no longer manufactured any product. Under the Novartis Agreement, the Company granted Novartis an exclusive license (the “License”) to all of the intellectual property of the Company to the extent that it is used or useful in the production of the vapor patches that Novartis is selling under the Novartis Agreement. The License will continue in effect for the duration of the patents lives permitted under applicable law. Upon the expiration of the patents included in the licensed intellectual property Novartis will have a non-revocable, perpetual, fully paid-up license to the intellectual property used or useful in the production of vapor patches for the pediatric and the adult cough/cold market. Novartis is required by the Novartis Agreement to pay royalties, at an agreed upon percentage, to the Company based on net semi-annual sales of vapor patches by Novartis for each year the License is in effect.

In June 2006, Novartis issued a nationwide recall of all of its Triaminic® vapor patch products. In a press release issued by Novartis pertaining to the recall, Novartis explained that the recall was “due to the serious adverse health effects that could result if the product is ingested by a child removing the patch and chewing on it.” At the same time that Novartis announced this voluntary recall, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) issued a release warning consumers “not to use the Triaminic Vapor Patch due to reports of serious adverse events associated with accidental ingestion by children.” According to news reports, the recall resulted from an adverse event experienced by a child who suffered a seizure after chewing on a Triaminic Vapor Patch. Novartis confirmed to the Company that the patch involved in this incident was not manufactured by the Company. As a result of this recall, the Company was proactive in assisting Novartis to resolve the FDA issues surrounding the product recall and used its resources to move the Company forward to revive its royalty income stream. The Company has met with Novartis representatives to discuss how to prevent an incident where a child or pet chews or ingests a patch.

In July 2007, Novartis began shipping a new adult vapor patch product in the United States for the cough and cold season. Novartis has not announced whether it will re-introduce a vapor patch for the pediatric market.

During the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, the Company recorded revenue of $91,273 and $111,376, respectively, for royalties covered under the Novartis Agreement. The Company does not know the marketing intent of Novartis for the vapor patch product. Year to year royalties paid to LecTec have declined and the Company expects this per annum downward trend to continue.

NOTE D — PATENT COSTS

Patent costs consisted of the following:


	December 31, 2010				December 31, 2009
	Gross carrying		Accumulated		Gross carrying		Accumulated
	amount		amortization		amount		amortization

Patents costs	$	361,366	$	308,705	$	321,927	$	292,116

Amortization expense is expected to be as follows:


Years ending December 31,

2012			13,889
2013			10,360
2014			8,224
2015			5,142

In April 2007, the Company was informed that the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (the USPTO) had completed a re-examination of a patent pertinent to the Novartis Agreement and the Company was issued a re-examination certificate. The patent is entitled “Non-Occlusive Adhesive Patch for Applying Medication to the Skin” and covers the design for adhesive patches, which contain a reservoir of medication to be delivered through the inhalation of vapors.

NOTE E — DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

The Company ceased manufacturing operations of topical patches in 2004 and reported these activities as discontinued operations. There was not any cost for assets of discontinued operations at December 31, 2010 or 2009. However, the Company has fully depreciated assets on hand that may be sold from time to time. Liabilities of discontinued operations of $130,000 consisted of a reserve for sales returns and credits for sales prior to the discontinuance of operations. At December 31, 2009 the Company determined that the reserve for sales returns was no longer a liability since the Company ceased its manufacturing operations in 2004. As a result, the Company recorded a reversal of this reserve of $130,000 in 2009.

NOTE F — COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Corporate Office and Lease Obligations

The Company relocated its principal executive office to a facility in Texarkana, Texas in August 2008 where it leases approximately 1,200 square feet of warehouse and office space. The lease expired in February 2010 and had been renewed for $750 per month through March 1, 2011, and has been subsequently renewed until March 1, 2012. The Company is also obligated to pay pro rata share of the costs and expenses incurred by the Lessor to operate the common areas of the office and warehouse complex. The Texas Lease contains customary representations, warranties and covenants on the part of the Company and the landlord.

The Company previously secured a small office in Pune, India in July 2008 to explore research, development and manufacturing opportunities for advanced skin interface technologies and products. Having completed an evaluation of the Company’s IP portfolio, this lease was terminated effective July 31, 2010.

At December 31, 2010, the Company had vacated its Edina, Minnesota facility. The Company used the space for liquidating saleable assets, storage of current accounting records, and managing an orderly wind down of operations at that facility. The Company maintained approximately 3,300 square feet of space at that facility. Notice was given by the Company to the landlord of its intention to vacate this facility by December 31, 2010.

Rent expense was $34,650 and $38,606 for 2010 and 2009, respectively.

The Company currently pays approximately $346 per month to provide storage and record retention services at two facilities located in Minnesota.

Employee Benefit Plan

The Company has a contributory 401(k) profit sharing benefit plan covering its employees. The Plan allows for discretionary contributions by the Company. No discretionary contributions were made for 2010 or 2009.

Contingency Fee Arrangement

The Company has entered into a contingency fee agreement with Rader, Fishman & Grauer PLLC, its legal counsel in the pending patent infringement litigation. Under this agreement, the Rader firm will receive a percentage of any recovery in the litigation or other proceeds resulting from a settlement of the litigation as its primary compensation for representing the Company in this matter. The Company is also obligated (i) to reimburse the Rader firm for its out-of-pocket expenses in connection with the litigation through an up front advance of $50,000 and monthly advances of $10,000, and (ii) to engage and pay for expert services needed in the litigation, provided that the Company’s obligation to advance such funds and pay such expert expenses will be suspended if the Company’s cash levels fall below certain thresholds. Thereafter, if the Company’s cash levels exceed such thresholds, or there is a recovery in or other proceeds from the litigation, then the Rader firm will be reimbursed for any expenses it has covered while such advances and payments were suspended. At December 31, 2010 the Company has expended approximately $8,500,000 (in aggregate) under the agreement for advances to the Rader firm and payments for expert services.

Legal Proceedings

On July 25, 2008, the Company filed a complaint for patent infringement (the “Complaint”) against five companies, including Chattem, Inc. (Ticker: CHTT), Endo Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (Ticker: ENDP), Johnson & Johnson Consumer Company, Inc. (Ticker: JNJ), The Mentholatum Company, Inc (Division of Rohto Pharmaceuticals, Ticker RPHCF.PK), and Prince of Peace Enterprises, Inc. (Private Company) (collectively, the “Defendants”) in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Texas. The Complaint alleged, among other things, that the Defendants infringed two of the Company’s patents (the “Patents—In—Suit”), which relate to the Company’s medicated patch technology. The Company sought to enjoin the Defendants from infringing the Patents—In—Suit and to recover monetary damages related to such infringement, as well as interest and litigation costs.

In October 2008, all five of the Defendants filed answers (the “Answers”) in response to the Complaint denying the Company’s claims therein, and asserting certain affirmative defenses and counterclaims against the Company, including assertions that the Patents—In—Suit are invalid and unenforceable, and claims for attorneys’ fees and costs. On October 20, 2008, the Company filed its replies to the Answers, denying such counterclaims and affirmative defenses, including the claims that the Patents—In—Suit are invalid and unenforceable.

On December 3, 2008, the Company’s counsel in the litigation, Rader, Fishman & Grauer PLLC (the “Counsel”), participated in a scheduling conference in this case. As a result of that conference, the Court scheduled a Markman hearing for May 6, 2010 and a final pretrial conference for January 3, 2011. On May 6, 2010 a Markman hearing occurred in Texarkana, Texas and the US District Court for the Eastern District of Texas issued Orders concerning it on May 20, 2010. The first Order was based on the Company’s motion to strike an exhibit from Chattem, Inc.’s Opposition Brief, and the Company’s motion to strike was granted by the Court. The second Order issued by the court denied Defendant’s motion request for leave to file for summary judgment as to non-infringement, but granted the request for leave to file for summary judgment as to invalidity of patents. The Court also issued its Markman ruling interpreting the terms “cured” and “non-occlusive” contained in the Company’s patents.

The Company engaged in voluntary mediation with Chattem, Inc. in July 2010. A Report of Mediation by the Hon. Harlan A. Martin was filed stating that the parties were unable to reach settlement. On September 28, 2010 the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Texas issued an Order regarding Prince of Peace’s and Chattem’s requests to file motions for summary judgment: (1) of invalidity due to the on-sale bar of 35 U.S.C. § 102(b); and (2) regarding such parties defenses of equitable estoppels and laches and the Company’s motions: (3) on, and to preclude testimony related to, Defendants’ 35 U.S.C. § 102(b) defense based on the Aqua-Patch; and (4) on infringement by Chattem and Prince of Peace. The Order granted Chattem and Prince of Peace the right to file a summary judgment motion regarding on-sale bar, but denied them the opportunity regarding the equitable defenses of estoppels and laches. With regard to the equitable issues, the Court stated that the custom in patent cases is to hold a separate bench proceeding after the jury trial on such issues. The Order granted the right to file summary judgment motions on infringement and to preclude Chattem’s and Prince of Peace’s Aqua-Patch defense. The court denied all summary judgment motions.

The Company reached settlements with Mentholatum, Endo and JJCC during 2009 (Note B). Prior to trial beginning with respect to Chattem and Prince of Peace in January 2011, the trial date was postponed until April 11, 2011. In March 2011 the Company reached settlement with Chattem (Note B).

The Company is diligent in pursuing its patent infringement lawsuit against the remaining defendant Prince of Peace and the Company’s legal counsel is preparing for trial.

The Company is unable to determine based on current information available whether it will be successful in its legal pursuits against the remaining defendant. The Company gives no assurance as to the outcome of the ongoing lawsuit or whether the Company’s Patents-In-Suit and claims asserted in the related patents could be deemed invalid by a court of law.

NOTE G — INCOME TAXES

The components of income tax expense (benefit) are as follows:


	Years ended December 31,

Net deferred income tax liability	$	538,000		$	(48,000	)

In 2010, the Company incurred a federal net operating loss in the amount of $1,678,000. As of December 31, 2010, the Company had Federal and Minnesota net operating loss carryforwards of $1,678,000 and $4,537,000, respectively. A valuation allowance has been recorded for the State net operating loss carryforward. The Company has moved its operations to the state of Texas in 2009 and therefore management believes the Minnesota net operating losses will not be utilized.

During 2009 the Company utilized all of its federal loss carryforwards to reduce income tax payable.

The Company continually reviews the adequacy of the valuation allowance and recognizes those benefits only as the Company’s assessment indicates that it is more likely than not that future tax benefits will be realized. The valuation allowance increased (decreased) by approximately $86,000 and ($4,505,700) for 2010 and 2009, respectively.

It is the Company’s practice to recognize penalties and/or interest related to income tax matters in interest and penalties expense. As of December 31, 2010, the amount of accrued interest and penalties is not material.

The Company is subject to income taxes in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and various states and local jurisdictions. Tax regulations within each jurisdiction are subject to the interpretation of the related tax laws and regulations and require significant judgment to apply. With few exceptions, the Company is no longer subject to U.S. federal, state, or local income tax examinations by tax authorities for the years before 2007. The Company is not currently under examination by any taxing jurisdiction.

NOTE H — EQUITY TRANSACTIONS

Stock Options

In September 2010, LecTec shareholders approved the LecTec Corporation 2010 Stock Incentive Plan (the “Stock Incentive Plan”). The Stock Incentive Plan replaced the existing LecTec Corporation 2001 Stock Incentive Plan (the “2001 Stock Incentive Plan”), which is scheduled to expire by its terms on July 1, 2011. The Stock Incentive Plan and 2001 Stock Incentive Plan (collectively the “Plans”) are for the benefit of officers, employees, and directors of the Company. Although there were 659,279 shares as of December 31, 2010 available for grant under the 2001 Stock Incentive Plan, no additional options can be granted under it because it was replaced by the Stock Incentive Plan. A total of 370,000 shares of common stock are available for grants under the Plans at December 31, 2010. An option not granted under the Plans to the Company’s CEO for 125,000 shares, subject to certain vesting requirements, were available for grant, at December 31, 2010. Options under the Company’s Plans are granted at fair market value on the date of grant and generally expire ten years from the grant date. Options given to directors,

officers, and employees are exercisable at such times as set forth in their individual option agreements. All options that have been granted and outstanding are fully vested and exercisable as of December 31, 2010, except for options for 125,000 shares granted to LecTec’s CEO for which 50,000 shares had vested and options for an aggregate of 80,000 shares granted to directors for which 20,000 shares, had vested as of December 31, 2010. Subsequent to December 31, 2010, one director retired and was replaced by a new Board member but had 10,000 vested shares of a previously issued option as of December 31, 2010, and 10,000 unvested shares that will continue to vest until the options expiration date of November 1, 2017.

Stock option activity during 2010 is summarized below:

As of December 31, 2010, there was $395,121 of total unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested share-based compensation arrangements granted under the Company’s 2010 Stock Incentive Plan. This unrecognized compensation cost will be recognized through August, 2011.

There were no options granted or exercised during fiscal 2009. Options granted during fiscal 2010 had a weighted-average fair value of $3.12 per option. One option was partially exercised for 15,000 shares at $2.60 per share during 2010.

On May 26, 2010, the Board of Directors of the Company approved the grant as of June 1, 2010 of a Non-Qualified Stock Option, outside of the Plans or any plan approved by LecTec shareholders, to Gregory Freitag pursuant to his becoming CEO of the Company. The option to Mr. Freitag was for the purchase of 125,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at $3.50 per share, vests as to 20% of the shares every 90 days from the grant date and will expire on June 1, 2020. On November 1, 2010, the Board of Directors of the Company granted to each of the four non-employee members of the Board of Directors of the Company, non-incentive stock options pursuant to the Stock Incentive Plan. Messrs. Tim Heaney, Robert Rudelius, Sanford Brink and Kevin Lynch each received an option to purchase 20,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at $3.50 per share. All of the options vested as to 5,000 shares immediately and then vest as to an additional 5,000 shares every 90 days until fully vested and will expire on November 1, 2017. The exercise price for all options issued was at a price equal to, or greater than, the fair market value of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant. All such options provide that termination of service as a Director or employee of the Company in the event of a change in control will result in all shares being immediately vested and will not cause a change in the terms of the option or cause the option to terminate. All options do have provisions that alter the terms of the option in the event there is termination of service as a Director or employee other than as a result of a change in control of the Company.

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

EVALUATION OF DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

The Company maintains “disclosure controls and procedures” as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, (the “Exchange Act”), that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, and Board of Directors, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating our disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that disclosure controls and procedures, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired objectives, and we necessarily are required to apply our judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible disclosure controls and procedures.

Our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of December 31, 2010 and concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of December 31, 2010.

MANAGEMENT’S ANNUAL REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act. The Company’s internal control system is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes, in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Because of inherent limitations, a system of internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate due to change in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting using the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control-Integrated Framework.

LecTec Corporation 2001 Stock Option Plan

The LecTec Corporation 2001 Stock Option Plan (the “2001 Stock Incentive Plan”) was designed (i) to aid in maintaining and developing personnel capable of assuring the future success of the Company and to offer such personnel additional incentives to put forth maximum efforts for the success of the business, and (ii) to afford such personnel an opportunity to acquire a proprietary interest in the Company through stock options. An aggregate of 750,000 shares are authorized for issuance under the 2001 Stock Incentive Plan pursuant to the grant of stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units or other stock grants (“Awards”). The 2001 Stock Incentive Plan became effective on July 1, 2001 and terminates on July 1, 2011. No additional options are to be granted under the 2001 Stock Incentive Plan.

The 2001 Stock Incentive Plan authorizes the grant of Awards to any employee, consultant, or independent contractor providing services to the Company or any affiliate of the Company, except that officers and directors of the Company or the Company’s affiliates are not eligible to participate in the 2001 Stock Incentive Plan. A committee of directors designated by the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Committee”) is responsible for administering the 2001 Stock Incentive Plan.

The exercise price, option term, and time and method of exercise of the stock options granted under the 2001 Stock Incentive Plan are determined by the Committee. Subject to the terms of the 2001 Stock Incentive Plan and any applicable agreement, the grant price, term, method of exercise, date of exercise, method of settlement and any other term and condition of any stock appreciation rights are determined by the Committee. The Committee may impose such conditions or restrictions on the exercise of any stock appreciation right as it may deem appropriate. Shares of restricted stock and restricted stock units are subject to such restrictions as the Committee may impose (including, without limitation, a waiver by participants of the right to vote or to receive any dividend or other right or property with respect thereto), which restrictions may lapse separately or in combination at such time or times, in such installments or otherwise as the Committee may deem appropriate. Any restricted stock granted under the 2001 Stock Incentive Plan is evidenced by issuance of a stock certificate or certificates, which certificate or certificates are held by the Company. Except as otherwise determined by the Committee, upon a participant’s termination of employment during the applicable restriction period, all shares of restricted stock and all restricted stock units held by the participant at such time are forfeited and reacquired by the Company. The Committee may, when it finds that a waiver would be in the best interest of the Company, waive in whole or in part any or all-remaining restrictions with respect to shares of restricted stock or restricted stock units. Finally, the Committee is authorized, subject to the terms of the 2001 Stock Incentive Plan and any applicable award agreement, to grant to eligible persons shares of common stock without restrictions thereon as are deemed by the Committee to be consistent with the purpose of the 2001 Stock Incentive Plan.

LecTec Corporation 2010 Stock Incentive Plan

In September 2010 LecTec’s shareholders approved, the LecTec Corporation 2010 Stock Incentive Plan (the “Stock Incentive Plan”). The purpose of the Stock Incentive Plan is to promote the interests of LecTec and its shareholders by aiding LecTec in attracting and retaining employees, officers, consultants, advisors and non—employee directors who the Company expects will contribute to its success and to enable these individuals to participate in the Company’s long—term success and growth by giving them a proprietary interest in LecTec. The aggregate number of shares of LecTec common stock that may be issued under all stock—based awards made under the Stock Incentive Plan is 450,000. The Stock Incentive Plan replaced the 2001 Stock Incentive Plan, which is scheduled to expire by its terms on July 1, 2011.

The Compensation Committee of our Board of Directors (the “Compensation Committee”) will administer the Stock Incentive Plan and will have full power and authority, along with the Board, to determine when and to whom awards will be granted, and the type, amount, form of payment and other terms and conditions of each award, consistent with the provisions of the Stock Incentive Plan. In addition, the Compensation Committee can specify whether, and under what circumstances, awards to be received under the Stock Incentive Plan or amounts payable under such awards may be deferred automatically or at the election of either the holder of the award or the Compensation Committee. Subject to the provisions of the Stock Incentive Plan, the Compensation Committee may amend or waive the terms and conditions, or accelerate the exercisability, of an outstanding award. The Compensation Committee has authority to interpret the Stock Incentive Plan and establish rules and regulations for the administration of the Stock Incentive Plan.

Any employee, officer, consultant, advisor or non—employee director providing services to LecTec or any of its affiliates, who is selected by the Compensation Committee, is eligible to receive an award under the Stock Incentive Plan, provided that, in the case of consultants and advisors, such services are not in connection with the offer or sale of securities in a capital—raising transaction and do not directly or indirectly promote or maintain a market for our securities.

The Stock Incentive Plan permits grants of:

	•		stock options (including both incentive and non—qualified stock options);

	•		stock appreciation rights (“SARs”);

	•		restricted stock and restricted stock units;

	•		dividend equivalents;

	•		performance awards of cash, stock or property;

	•		stock awards; and

	•		other stock—based awards.

Awards may be granted alone, in addition to, in combination with or in substitution for, any other award granted under the Stock Incentive Plan or any other compensation plan. Awards can be granted for no cash consideration or for any cash or other consideration as may be determined by the Compensation Committee or as required by applicable law. Awards may provide that upon the grant or exercise thereof, the holder will receive cash, shares of LecTec common stock, other securities or property or any combination of these in a single payment, installments or on a deferred basis. The exercise price per share under any stock option and the grant price of any SAR may not be less than the fair market value of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant of such option or SAR except to satisfy legal requirements of foreign jurisdictions or if the award is in substitution for an award previously granted by an entity acquired by us. Determinations of fair market value under the Stock Incentive Plan will be made in accordance with methods and procedures established by the Compensation Committee. The term of awards may not be longer than ten years from the date of grant. Awards will be adjusted by the Compensation Committee in the case of a stock dividend or other distribution, recapitalization, stock split, reverse stock split, reorganization, merger, consolidation, split—up, spin—off, combination, repurchase or exchange of shares, issuance of warrants or other rights or other similar corporate transaction or event that affects shares of our common stock in order to prevent dilution or enlargement of the benefits or potential benefits intended to be provided under the Stock Incentive Plan.

If an award entitles the holder to receive or purchase shares of Company common stock, the shares covered by such award or to which the award relates will be counted against the aggregate number of shares available for awards under the Stock Incentive Plan. For SARs settled in shares upon exercise, the aggregate number of shares with respect to which the SAR is exercised, rather than the number of shares actually issued upon exercise, will be counted against the number of shares available for awards under the Stock Incentive Plan. Awards that do not entitle the holder to receive or purchase shares and awards that are settled in cash will not be counted against the aggregate number of shares available for awards under the Stock Incentive Plan.

The Stock Incentive Plan provides that shares covered by an award made under the Stock Incentive Plan (or to which such an award relates) that are not purchased, that are forfeited or are reacquired by LecTec (including shares of restricted stock, whether or not dividends have been paid on such shares), or that are subject to an award that otherwise terminates or is cancelled without delivery of such shares, shall be available for award again under the Stock Incentive Plan to the extent of any such forfeiture, reacquisition, termination or cancellation. Shares that are withheld in full or partial payment of the purchase or exercise price of any award or in connection with the satisfaction of tax obligations relating to an award will not be available again for grant awards under the Stock Incentive Plan.

Unless terminated by the Board of Directors, the Stock Incentive Plan will expire on August 15, 2020. No awards may be made after that date. However, unless otherwise expressly provided in an applicable award agreement, any award granted under the Stock Incentive Plan prior to expiration may extend beyond the expiration of the Stock Incentive Plan through the award’s normal expiration date. The Board of Directors may amend, alter, suspend, discontinue or terminate the Stock Incentive Plan at any time, although shareholder approval must be obtained for any amendment to the Stock Incentive Plan that would: (1) increase the number of shares of our common stock available under the Stock Incentive Plan, (2) increase the award limits under the Stock Incentive Plan, (3) permit awards of options or SARs at a price less than fair market value, (4) permit repricing of options or SARs or (5) cause Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code to become unavailable with respect to the Stock Incentive Plan. Shareholder approval is also required for any action that requires shareholder approval under the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission or any other securities exchange that are applicable to us.

No option or SAR may be amended to reduce its initial exercise or grant price, and no option or SAR may be cancelled and replaced with awards having a lower exercise or grant price. However, the Compensation Committee may adjust the exercise or grant price of, and the number of shares subject to, any outstanding option or SAR in connection with a stock dividend or other distribution, recapitalization, stock split, reverse stock split, reorganization, merger, consolidation, split—up, spin—off, combination, repurchase or exchange of shares, issuance of warrants or other rights or other similar corporate transaction or event that affects shares of our common stock, in order to prevent dilution or enlargement of the benefits, or potential benefits intended to be provided under the Stock Incentive Plan.

Table of Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management

The following table sets forth certain information with respect to the beneficial ownership of our common stock as of March 30, 2011, by each person, or group of affiliated persons, who is known by us to beneficially own more than 5% of our common stock, each of our directors, each of our executive officers named in the Summary Compensation Table above and all of our directors and executive officers as a group.

Beneficial ownership is determined in accordance with the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission. In computing the number of shares beneficially owned by a person and the percentage ownership of that person, shares of common stock under options held by that person that are currently exercisable or exercisable within 60 days of, March 30, 2011 are considered outstanding. Each shareholder named in the table has sole voting and investment power for the shares shown as beneficially owned by them, and such shares are not subject to any pledge. Percentage of ownership is based on 4,305,026 shares of common stock outstanding on March 30, 2011.

ITEM 13. CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS, AND DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCE

We are not a listed issuer and so are not subject to the director independence requirements of any exchange or inter-dealer quotation system. Nevertheless, in determining whether our directors and director nominees are independent, we use the definition of independence provided in Rule 4200(a) (15) of The NASDAQ Stock Market’s Marketplace Rules. Under this definition of independence, directors Timothy Heaney, Robert Rudelius, Lowell Hellervik, Ph.D. and Dr. Elmer Salovich would be considered independent directors. Gregory Freitag, a member of our Board of Directors, would not be considered independent because he serves as our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer.

ITEM 14. PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTANT FEES AND SERVICES

Audit Fees

Fees billed or expected to be billed to us for audit services by our independent registered public accounting firm, Lurie Besikof Lapidus & Company, LLP (“Lurie Besikof”) for the audit of our annual financial statements and for reviews of our financial statements included in our quarterly reports on Form 10-Q for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009 were $60,600 and $46,500, respectively.

Audit-Related Fees

No fees were billed or are expected to be billed to us by Lurie Besikof for audit-related services provided during the fiscal years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009.

Tax Fees

Fees billed or expected to be billed to us by Lurie Besikof for tax compliance, tax advice, and tax planning for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2010 or 2009 were $12,582 and $10,350, respectively.

All Other Fees

No fees were billed or are expected to be billed to us by Lurie Besikof for other services not included above during the fiscal years ended December 31, 2010 or 2009.

Pre-Approval Policies and Procedures

Because of our size, complexity, financial condition, and prospects, the Audit Committee is apprised of and pre-approves all fees for services provided by our independent registered public accounting firm. All fees paid to our independent registered public accounting firm for 2010 and 2009 were approved by our Audit Committee. The Audit Committee has considered whether non-audit services provided by our independent registered public accounting firm during 2010 and 2009 were compatible with maintaining the accounting firm’s independence.
