Exhibit 10.1

 
CLEARVIEW ACQUISITIONS, INC.
 
SHARE EMPLOYEE INCENTIVE STOCK OPTION PLAN

Section 1.                      Establishment and Purpose.

The name of the plan is the Clearview Acquisitions, Inc. Share Employee
Incentive Stock Option Plan (the "Plan").

The purpose of the Plan is to provide key employees, officers, directors,
consultants and agents of Clearview Acquisitions, Inc. and its subsidiaries (the
"Company") added incentive for high levels of performance and to reward unusual
efforts which increase the earnings and long-term growth of the Company. The
judgment, initiative and efforts of valued employees and other selected
individuals upon whom the financial success and growth of the Company largely
depend will be entitled to purchase proprietary interests in the Company.

Section 2.                      Stock Subject to the Plan.

The total number of shares of stock reserved and available for distribution
under the Plan shall be 13,700,000 shares of common stock of the Company.  The
number of shares reserved hereunder may consist in whole or in part of
authorized and unissued shares or treasury shares.

Upon exercise of the option in accordance with the terms of this Plan and the
Option Agreement (described in Section 5 below), the grantee shall receive such
shares of stock of the Company set forth in the Notice of Option Grant delivered
to the grantee.  A grantee to whom shares have been issued upon proper exercise
of an option granted hereunder shall be entitled all rights of a shareholder,
including, without limitation, dividends, voting and liquidation rights.

Section 3.                      Administration of the Plan.

The Plan shall be administered by a Committee (the “Committee”).  The decision
of the Committee as to all questions of interpretation and application of the
Plan shall be final, binding and conclusive on all persons.  The Committee may,
in its sole discretion, grant options for shares of the Company’s stock to such
eligible individuals as it deems appropriate and issue stock upon exercise of
such options.  The Committee shall have authority, subject to the express
provisions of the Plan, to construe the Option Agreements and the Plan, to
prescribe, amend and rescind rules and regulations relating to the Plan, to
determine the terms and provisions of the Option Agreements, which may, but need
not be identical, and to make all other determinations in the judgment of the
Committee necessary or desirable for the administration of the Plan.  The
Committee may correct any defect or supply any omission or reconcile any
inconsistency in the Plan or in any Option Agreement in the manner and to the
extent it shall deem expedient to carry the Plan into effect and shall be the
sole and final judge of such expediency.  All decisions, interpretations and
other actions of the Committee shall be final and binding.  The Committee shall
not be liable for any action or determination made in good faith. The functions
of the Committee shall be exercised by the Board of Directors of the Company, if
and to the extent that no Committee exists which has the authority to so
administer the Plan.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

Section 4.                      Eligibility.

Options may be granted to officers and employees of the Company, as well as
agents and consultants to the Company, whether or not otherwise employees of the
Company.  In determining the eligibility of an individual to be granted an
option under the Plan, as well as in determining the number of shares to be
optioned to any individual, the Committee shall take into account the position
and responsibilities of the individual being considered, the nature and value to
the Company of his or her services and accomplishments, his or her present and
potential contribution to the success of the Company, and such other factors as
the Committee may deem relevant.

Section 5.                      Option Agreement.

Each option shall be governed by Notice of Option Grant and an option agreement
(the “Option Agreement”) duly executed on behalf of the Company and by the
grantee to whom such option is granted.  The Option Agreement shall be subject
to the terms and conditions of the Plan and may be subject to any other terms
and conditions which are not inconsistent with the Plan and which the Committee
deems appropriate for inclusion in the Option Agreement.  The provisions of the
various Option Agreements entered into under the Plan need not be identical.

Section 6.                      Option Price and Exercise of Option.

The exercise price shall be determined by the Committee in its sole and absolute
discretion.  Each option shall be exercisable at such time or times and during
such period as shall be set forth in the Notice of Option Grant and/or Option
Agreement.  To the extent that an option is not exercised when it becomes
initially exercisable, it shall be carried forward and shall be exercisable, on
a cumulative basis, until the expiration of the exercise period.

Section 7.                      Term of Option; Exercisability.

(a)           Term.

(i)              Each option shall expire five (5) years from the date of the
granting thereof, except as (y) otherwise provided pursuant to the provision of
Section 7(b) hereof and (z) earlier termination as herein provided.

 
2

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

(ii)             Except as otherwise provided in this Section 7, an option
granted to any grantee who ceases to perform services for the Company shall
terminate three (3) months after the date such grantee ceases to perform
services for the Company.

(iii)            If the grantee ceases to perform services for the Company
because of dismissal for cause or because the grantee is in breach of any
agreement with the Company, such option shall terminate on the date the grantee
is dismissed, ceases to perform services for the Company or when the agreement
with the Company was breached.

(iv)            If the grantee ceases to perform services for the Company
because the grantee has become disabled (as determined in the sole discretion of
Committee), such option shall terminate on the next immediate anniversary date
of the option grant date following the date such grantee ceases to perform
services for the Company, or on the date on which the option expires by its
terms, whichever occurs first.  For example, if the option was granted on
January 1st and the grantee became disabled on July 1st, the option would
terminate on the following January 1st.

(v)             In the event of the death of a grantee, any option granted to
such grantee shall terminate on the next immediate anniversary date of the
option grant date after the date of death, or on the date on which the option
expires by its specific terms, whichever occurs first.

(vi)            If any terms of this Plan are inconsistent with any provisions
in an employment agreement existing as of the date of this Plan’s adoption, the
provisions in the employment agreement will control.

(b)           Exercisability.

(i)              Each Option Agreement shall specify the date when all or any
installment of the option is first exercisable.  The exercisability provisions
contained in any Option Agreement shall be determined by the Committee in its
sole discretion.

(ii)             Except as otherwise provided below, an option granted to any
grantee who ceases to perform services for the Company shall be exercisable only
to the extent that such option has vested and is in effect on the date such
grantee ceases to perform services for the Company.

(iii)            An option granted to a grantee who ceases to perform services
for the Company because he or she has become disabled (as defined above) may be
exercised by the grantor or his or her legal representative, but only to the
extent that such option has become exercisable on or prior to the termination
date of the option (as determined in accordance with Section 7(a)(ii)).

 
3

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

(iv)            In the event of the death of any grantee, the option granted to
such grantee may be exercised by the estate of such grantee or by any person or
persons who acquired the right to exercise such option by bequest or
inheritance, but only to the extent that such option has become exercisable on
or prior to the termination date of the option (as determined in accordance with
Section 7(a)(ii)).

(v)             Unless otherwise provided in any Option Agreement, all Options
granted pursuant to the Plan shall become fully and immediately exercisable with
respect to all shares subject thereto upon a Change of Control (as defined
below).
 
Section 8.                      Options and Shares Not Transferable.

The option, the right of any grantee to exercise any option and the shares
issuable upon exercise of the option shall not be, directly or indirectly,
disposed, assigned or transferred by such grantee other than by will or the laws
of descent and distribution, or, in the case of a grant pursuant to a qualified
statutory agreement, to a family trust of the subject employee, and any such
option shall be exercisable during the lifetime of such grantee only by the
grantee (unless disabled or by the person who acquired the right to exercise
such option by bequest or inheritance).  Any attempted disposition or other
transfer of the option and/or shares of stock granted pursuant to the exercise
of an option under the Plan, including without limitation, any gift, purported
assignment, whether voluntary or by operation of law, pledge, hypothecation or
other disposition, attachment, trustee process or similar process, whether legal
or equitable, shall be null and void and without effect.

Section 9.                      Recapitalization, Reorganization and Change of
Control.

If the outstanding shares of the common stock of the Company are increased or
decreased, or are changed into or exchanged for a different number or kind of
shares or securities or other forms of property (including cash) or rights, as a
result of one or more reorganizations, recapitalizations, spin-offs, stock
splits, reverse stock splits, stock dividends or the like, appropriate
adjustments shall be made in the number and/or kind of shares or securities or
other forms of property (including cash) or rights for which Options may
thereafter be granted under the Plan and for which Options then outstanding
under the Plan may thereafter be exercised. Any such Share adjustments shall be
made without changing the aggregate exercise price applicable to the unexercised
portions of outstanding Options. Any fractional shares resulting from such
adjustment shall be eliminated by rounding to the nearest whole number.
Appropriate amendments to the Option Agreements shall be executed by the Company
and the grantees to the extent the Committee determines that such amendments are
necessary or desirable to reflect such adjustments. If determined by the
Committee to be appropriate, in the event of any share adjustment involving the
substitution of securities of a corporation other than the Company, the
Committee shall make arrangements for the assumption by such other corporation
of any Options then or thereafter outstanding under the Plan, without any change
in the total exercise price applicable to the unexercised portion of the Options
but with an appropriate adjustment to the number of securities, kind of
securities and exercise price for each of the securities subject to the Options.
The determination by the Committee as to what adjustment, amendments or
arrangements shall be made pursuant to this Section and the extent thereof,
shall be final and conclusive.

 
4

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

In the event of the proposed dissolution or liquidation of the Company, or in
the event of a Change of Control, or any other transaction in which the
outstanding shares then subject to Options under the Plan are changed into or
exchanged for property (including cash), rights and/or securities other than, or
in addition to, shares of the Company, the holder of each Option then
exercisable shall have the right to exercise such Option for the kind and amount
of shares of stock and other securities, property, cash or any combination
thereof receivable upon such dissolution, liquidation, Change of Control or
similar corporate event, by a holder of the number of Shares for which such
Option might have been exercised immediately prior to such dissolution,
liquidation, sale, consolidation or merger or similar corporate event.  Any
agreement providing for a Change of Control shall provide, at the discretion of
the Committee, that the purchaser(s) of the Company’s assets or stock shall
deliver to the grantee the same kind of consideration that is delivered to other
stockholders of the Company as a result of such sale, conveyance or Change of
Control.  Alternatively, the Committee may cancel all outstanding options in
exchange for consideration in cash or in kind which consideration in both cases
shall be equal in value to the value the grantee would have received had the
option been exercised (to the extent so exercisable) and no disposition of the
shares acquired upon such exercise been made prior to such sale, conveyance or
Change of Control, less the exercise price therefor.  Upon receipt of such
consideration, the options shall terminate and be of no further force and
effect.  The value of the stock or other securities the grantee would have
received if the option had been exercised shall be determined in good faith by
the Committee.

A “Change of Control” shall be deemed to have occurred upon the consummation of
(i) an acquisition of any voting securities of the Company by any entity or
person, immediately after which such entity or person has beneficial ownership
of fity-one percent (51%) or more of the then outstanding shares or the combined
voting power of the Company’s then outstanding voting securities; (ii) the
individuals who, as of the effective date of this Plan, are members of the Board
(the "Incumbent Board"), cease for any reason to constitute at least two-thirds
of the members of the Board; provided, however, that if the election, or
nomination of any new director was approved by a vote of at least two-thirds of
the Incumbent Board, such new director shall, for purposes of this Plan, be
considered as a member of the Incumbent Board; (iii) a merger, consolidation or
other business combination with or into another company; or (iv) the sale or
other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company.

Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the Change in Control
resulting from the consummation of the proposed transaction among the Company,
its wholly-owned subsidiary and Helix Wind, Inc. shall result in each holder of
an option issued by Helix Wind, Inc. having the right to exercise such Option
for the kind and amount of shares of the Company.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

Section 10.                    No Special Employment Rights.

Nothing contained in the Plan, the Notice of Option Grant or the Option
Agreement or in any option granted thereunder shall confer upon any grantee any
right with respect to the continuation of his or her employment by the Company
or interfere in any way with the right of the Company, subject to the terms of
any separate employment agreement to the contrary, at any time to terminate such
employment or to increase or decrease the compensation of the grantee from the
rate in existence at the time of the grant of an option.

Section 11.                    Withholding.

The Company’s obligation to deliver shares upon the exercise of an option
granted under the Plan shall be subject to the satisfaction by the grantee, as
determined in the sole discretion of the Company, of all applicable Federal,
state and local income and employment tax withholding requirements.

Section 12.                    Purchase for Investment.

Unless the shares to be issued upon exercise of an option granted under the Plan
have been effectively registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended
(the “Securities Act”), the Company shall be under no obligation to issue any
shares of stock covered by any option unless the person who exercises such
option, in whole or in part, shall give a written representation and undertaking
to the Company which is satisfactory in form and scope to counsel to the Company
and upon which, in the opinion of such counsel, the Company may reasonably rely,
that he or she is acquiring the shares issued pursuant to such exercise of the
option for his or her own account as an investment and not with a view to, or
for sale in connection with, the distribution of any such interests, and that he
or she will make no transfer of the same except in compliance with any rules and
regulations in force at the time of such transfer under the Securities Act and
any other applicable law.

Section 13.                    Modification of Outstanding Options.

Subject to the limitations contained herein, the Committee may authorize the
amendment of any outstanding option with the consent of the grantee when and
subject to such conditions as are deemed to be in the best interests of the
Company and in accordance with the purposes of the Plan.

Section 14.                    Termination and Amendment of the Plan.

The Plan shall terminate on February 11, 2019.  The Committee may at any time
terminate the Plan or make such modification or amendment thereof as it deems
appropriate.  Termination or any modification or amendment of the Plan shall
not, without the consent of a grantee, affect his or her rights under an option
granted to him or her prior to the date of such amendment.

Section 15.                    Notices.

Any communication or notice required or permitted to be given under the Plan
shall be in writing and mailed by registered or certified mail or delivered to
the Company, to its principal place of business, attention: Committee, and, if
to the holder of an option, to the address appearing on the records of the

connection with the exercise of this Option.  If the Corporation makes such a
determination, this Option may not be exercised in whole or in part unless and
until such registration or qualification shall have been effected or obtained
free of any conditions not acceptable to the Corporation, in its reasonable

Plan, the provisions of the Plan shall control.
 
11.           Optionee Acknowledgments. By executing this Option, you
acknowledge and agree as follows:
 
11.1.               Although the Corporation has made a good faith attempt to
qualify this Option as an “Incentive Stock Option” within the meaning of Code §
422, the Corporation does not warrant that this Option granted herein
constitutes an “Incentive Stock Option” within the meaning of that section, or
that the transfer of stock acquired pursuant to this Option will be treated for
Federal Income Tax purposes as specified in Code § 421.
 
11.2.               You shall, from time to time, notify the Secretary of the
Corporation in writing of each disposition (including a sale, exchange, gift, or
a transfer of legal title) of shares of Common Stock acquired pursuant to the
exercise of this Option, within three years after acquiring those shares. Such
notification shall be in writing and shall be made within 15 days after each
such disposition is made.
 
11.3.               You understand that if, among other things, you dispose of
shares of Common Stock granted to you pursuant to this Option within two years
of the granting of this Option to you or within one year of the transfer of such
shares to you, or you exercise this Option more than three months after
termination of employment, then such shares will not qualify for the beneficial
treatment which you might otherwise receive under Code §§ 421 and 422.
 
11.4.               You further understand that upon exercise of this Option you
may be subject to alternative minimum tax as a result of such exercise.
 
11.5.               You and your transferees have no rights as a shareholder
with respect to any shares of Common Stock covered by this Option until the date
of the issuance of a stock certificate for such shares.
 
11.6.               The Corporation is not providing you with advice, warranties
or representations regarding any of the legal or tax effects to you with respect
to this grant.
 
11.7.               You acknowledge that you are familiar with the terms of the
grant made to you under this Option and the Plan, that you have been encouraged
by the Corporation to discuss the grant and the Plan with your own legal and tax
advisers, and that you agree to be bound by the terms of the grant and the Plan.

 
9

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

12.           Withholding. You acknowledge that federal and state income and
payroll tax may apply upon exercise of this Option.  If the Corporation
determines, in its sole discretion, that withholding is required, you agree that
such withholding may be accomplished with respect to the cash compensation (if
any) due to you from the Corporation.  If withholding pursuant to the foregoing
sentence is insufficient (in the sole judgment of the Corporation) to satisfy
the full withholding obligation, you agree that you will pay over to the
Corporation the amount of cash or, if acceptable to the Corporation in its sole
discretion, property with a value necessary to satisfy such remaining
withholding obligation on the date this Option is exercised or at a time
thereafter specified in writing by the Corporation.
 
13.           Entire Agreement.  This Option and the Plan constitute the entire
agreement between the parties pertaining to the subject matter contained herein
and they supersede all prior and contemporaneous agreements, representations,
and understandings of the parties.  No supplement, modification, or amendment of
this Option shall be binding unless executed in writing by all of the
parties.  No waiver of any of the provisions of this Option shall be deemed or
shall constitute a waiver of any other provisions, whether or not similar, nor
shall any waiver constitute a continuing waiver.  No waiver shall be binding
unless executed in writing by the party making the waiver.
 
14.           Governing Law.  This Option shall be construed according to the
laws of the State of California and federal law, as applicable.  Any dispute
relating to this Option shall be brought and heard only in a court of competent
jurisdiction in the State of California.
