PROXY STATEMENT
SUMMARY TERM SHEET
     THIS SUMMARY MAY NOT CONTAIN ALL OF THE INFORMATION THAT IS IMPORTANT TO YOU. FOR A MORE COMPLETE UNDERSTANDING OF THE INFORMATION CONTAINED IN THIS PROXY STATEMENT, YOU SHOULD READ THE ENTIRE PROXY STATEMENT CAREFULLY, AS WELL AS THE ADDITIONAL DOCUMENTS TO WHICH IT REFERS.
THE ANNUAL MEETING
     
Date, Time and Place of Annual Meeting
  The Annual Meeting will be held on August 1, 2006, beginning at 10:00 a.m., PST, at 800 Silverado Street, Second Floor, La Jolla, CA 92037.
 
   
Record Date: Shareholders Entitled to Vote; Quorum
  Only holders of record of Planet common stock on June 16, 2006, are entitled to notice of and to vote at the Annual Meeting. As of the record date, there were 3,986,368 shares of Planet common stock outstanding. The presence, in person or by proxy, of the holders of a majority of our common stock will constitute a quorum.
 
   
Vote Required
  The seven persons with the most number of votes will be elected directors pursuant to Proposal 2; and assuming a quorum is present, the affirmative vote of a majority of the shares represented and voting, either present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting are required to vote in favor of Proposals 3 and 4 for such proposals to pass. The affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of the Company as of the Record Date are required to pass Proposal 1.
 
   
Recommendation of Board of Directors
  Our Board of Directors unanimously approved each of the Proposals to be considered at the Annual Meeting. The Board recommends that the stockholders vote “FOR” each proposal.
PROPOSAL 1 — CONVERSION FROM CALIFORNIA CORPORATION TO DELAWARE CORPORATION
     
Reason for Conversion
  Management believes that reincorporation in Delaware would be beneficial to the Company because Delaware corporate law is more comprehensive, widely used and extensively interpreted than other state corporate laws, including California corporate law. In addition, management believes that Delaware law is better suited than California law to protect shareholder’s interests in the event of a non-solicited takeover attempt.
 
   
Vote Required to Approve the Conversion:
  The affirmative vote of a majority of the outstanding shares of common stock (either in person or by proxy) is required to approve the Delaware Reincorporation. A properly executed proxy marked “ABSTAIN” with respect to such matter will not be voted, although it will be counted for purposes of determining whether there is a quorum. Accordingly, an abstention will have the effect of a negative vote.
PROPOSAL 2 — ELECTION OF DIRECTORS
     
Nominees
  There are seven board nominees for the seven board positions presently authorized by the Company’s current bylaws. The names of the nominees are H. M. Busby; Scott L. Glenn; Eric B. Freedus, Ellen Preston; Michael Trinkle, Michael Walsh and Edward Steube. Should the Shareholders approve Proposal 2, these seven board nominees, if elected pursuant to this proposal, would serve as directors of the Delaware Company.
 
   
Voting
  Shares represented by executed proxies will vote, if authority to do so is not withheld, for the election of the nominees. In the event that any nominee should be unavailable for election as a result of an unexpected occurrence, such shares will be voted for the election of such substitute nominee as management may propose. Each person nominated for election has agreed to serve if elected and management has no reason to believe that any nominee will be unable to serve.
PROPOSAL 3 — AMENDMENT TO THE 2000 STOCK OPTION PLAN
     
Description of the 2000 Plan, as Amended
  The Company proposes to increase the number of shares reserved for issuance under the 2000 Plan from 350,000 shares to 2,000,000 shares. The purpose of the increase is to reserve an adequate number of shares of Common Stock for awards pursuant to the 2000 Plan sufficient to accommodate the retention of the current Board of Directors and executive officers of the Company, and in the future, other key employees, officers and directors. The number of shares available for issuance will be subject to adjustment to prevent dilution in the event of stock splits, stock dividends or other changes in the capitalization of the Company.
 
   
Tax Consequences
  For Federal Income Tax purposes, the grant to an optionee of a non-incentive option generally will not constitute a taxable event to the optionee or to the Company. Similarly, for Federal Income Tax purposes, in general, neither the grant nor the exercise of an incentive option will constitute a taxable event to the optionee or to the Company, assuming the incentive option qualifies as an “Incentive Stock Option” under Internal Revenue Code Section 422.
 
   
Vote Required to Approve
  Assuming a quorum is present, the affirmative vote of a majority of the shares represented and voting, either present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting are required to vote in favor.
PROPOSAL 4 — RATIFICATION OF SELECTION OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
     
Engagement of Accountant
  We have approved retaining J.H. Cohn LLP to serve as our independent registered public accounting firm for the 2006 fiscal year and we seek stockholder ratification of that decision.
 
   
Vote Required to Approve
  Assuming a quorum is present, the affirmative vote of a majority of the shares represented and voting, either present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting are required to vote in favor.

     The enclosed proxy is solicited on behalf of the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Planet Technologies, Inc., a California corporation (the “Company” and “Old Planet”), for use at the Annual Meeting of Shareholders to be held on August 1, 2006 at 10:00 a.m. local time (the “Annual Meeting”), or at any adjournment or postponement thereof, for the purposes set forth herein and in the accompanying Notice of Annual Meeting. The Annual Meeting will be held at 800 Silverado Street, Second Floor, La Jolla, California 92037. The Company intends to mail this proxy statement and accompanying proxy card on or about July 3, 2006, to all shareholders entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting.
Solicitation
     The Company will bear the entire cost of solicitation of proxies including preparation, assembly, printing and mailing of this proxy statement, the proxy and any additional information furnished to shareholders. Copies of solicitation materials will be furnished to banks, brokerage houses, fiduciaries and custodians holding in their names shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by others to forward to such beneficial owners. The Company may reimburse persons representing beneficial owners of Common Stock for their costs of forwarding solicitation materials to such beneficial owners. Original solicitation of proxies by mail may be supplemented by telephone, telegram or personal solicitation by directors, officers or other regular employees of the Company. No additional compensation will be paid to directors, officers or other regular employees for such services.
Voting Rights and Outstanding Shares
     For purposes of the Annual Meeting, a quorum means a majority of the outstanding shares entitled to vote. Holders of record of the Company’s Common Stock at the close of business on June 16, 2006 (the “Record Date”) will be entitled to notice of and to vote at the Annual Meeting. At the close of business on June 16, 2006, the Company had outstanding and entitled to vote 3,986,368 shares of Common Stock. In determining whether a quorum exists at the Annual meeting, all shares represented in person or by proxy, including abstentions and broker non-votes, will be counted.
     Except as provided below, on all matters to be voted upon at the Annual Meeting, each holder of record of Common Stock on the Record Date will be entitled to one vote for each share held. With respect to the election of directors, shareholders may exercise cumulative voting rights, i.e., each shareholder entitled to vote for the election of directors may cast a total number of votes equal to the number of directors to be elected multiplied by the number of such shareholder shares (on an as converted basis), and may cast such total of votes for one or more candidates in such proportions as such shareholder chooses.
     All votes will be tabulated by the inspector of election appointed for the meeting, who will separately tabulate affirmative and negative votes, abstentions and broker non-votes.
How to Vote
     Please sign, date and return the enclosed proxy card promptly. If your shares are held in the name of a bank, broker, or other holder of record (that is, in “street name”) you will receive instructions from the holder of record that you must follow for your shares to be voted.

STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION

     A: If you do not submit a proxy or vote at your annual meeting, your shares will not be counted for the purpose of determining the presence of a quorum and your inaction will have no effect on the outcome of the proposals.

    voting in person by written ballot at the Company annual meeting.
     If you have instructed a broker to vote your shares, you must follow the directions from your broker on how to change that vote.

PROPOSAL 1
CONVERSION FROM A CALIFORNIA CORPORATION TO A DELAWARE CORPORATION
INTRODUCTION
     The Company is presently a California corporation with two classes of shares outstanding. The Board has unanimously approved and recommends that the holders of the Company’s outstanding shares approve the merger of the Company with and into Allergy Control Products, Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. The Delaware corporation will be the surviving corporation in the merger under the name Planet Technologies, Inc. The sole purpose of the merger is to change the Company’s jurisdiction of incorporation from California to Delaware. Throughout this Proposal Two, the term the “Company” refers to Planet Technologies, Inc., the existing California corporation, and the term “New Planet” refers to the new Delaware corporation that is the proposed successor to the Company. The principal executive offices of both the Company and New Planet are located at 96 Danbury Road, Ridgefield, Connecticut 06877, and the telephone numbers of both the Company and New Planet is (800) 255-3749.
     Earlier this year, we considered reincorporating to Delaware and undertook a review of the advantages and disadvantages of changing our state of incorporation from California to Delaware. As discussed in “Principal Reasons for the Proposed Reincorporation,” management believes that reincorporation in Delaware would be beneficial to the Company because Delaware corporate law is more comprehensive, widely used and extensively interpreted than other state corporate laws, including California corporate law.
     In addition, management believes that Delaware law is better suited than California law to protect shareholder’s interests in the event of a non-solicited takeover attempt. We are not, however, aware that any person is currently attempting to acquire control of the Company, to obtain representation on our Board of Directors or to take any action that would materially affect the governance of the Company. In this regard, we are not proposing any material changes to our organizational documents to adopt any anti-takeover strategies in connection with the reincorporation.
     On June 9, 2006, our board met with management and its advisors to discuss the advantages and disadvantages of reincorporating in Delaware, the mechanics of reincorporating and possible changes to our organizational document associated with a reincorporation. The Board unanimously determined that the reincorporation was in the best interest of the Company and approved a resolution to move forward with the reincorporation process. On June 9, 2006, our Board unanimously approved the Agreement and the Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”).

8


Table of Contents

     Because New Planet will be governed by the Delaware General Corporation Law (“DGCL”) and will have new organizational documents, if the reincorporation proposal is approved, the proposed reincorporation will result in certain changes in your rights as a shareholder. These differences are summarized under the sections entitled “Comparison of the Charters and Bylaws of the Company and New Planet” and “Significant differences between the corporation laws of California and Delaware.”
     Our board has unanimously approved and, for the reasons described below, recommended that you approve the proposal to reincorporate the Company’s state of incorporation from California to Delaware. If approved by shareholders, we expect that the reincorporation merger will become effective as soon as practicable (the “Effective Date”) following our meeting of shareholders. If shareholders do not approve the reincorporation merger, we would not consummate the reincorporation merger and we would continue to operate as a California corporation.
     IN ORDER FOR THE PROPOSED REINCORPORATION TO BE EFFECTIVE, A MAJORITY OF THE OUTSTANDING SHARES OF COMMON STOCK MUST APPROVE PROPOSAL TWO. SEE “VOTE REQUIRED FOR REINCORPORATION PROPOSAL AND BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDATION” BELOW. YOU ARE URGED TO READ CAREFULLY THIS SECTION OF THE PROXY STATEMENT, INCLUDING THE RELATED APPENDICES, BEFORE VOTING ON THE REINCORPORATION MERGER.
MECHANICS
     The proposed reincorporation would be effected pursuant to the Merger Agreement in substantially the form attached as Exhibit “E”. The discussion of the reincorporation merger and the Merger Agreement set forth below is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Merger Agreement. Upon completion of the reincorporation merger, the company will cease to exist and New Planet, which would be the surviving corporation in the reincorporation merger, would continue to operate our business under the name Planet Technologies, Inc.
     Upon the Effective Date, each outstanding share of common stock of the Company will be automatically converted into one share of common stock of New Planet. Each stock certificate representing issued and outstanding shares of common stock of the Company will continue to represent the same number of shares of common stock of New Planet. If the Company and New Planet effect the Reincorporation Merger, you would not need to exchange your existing stock certificates of the company for stock certificates of New Planet. You may, however, exchange your certificates if you so choose.
     A vote in favor of the Merger serves as ratification of the Delaware Certificate attached hereto as Exhibit “C.” The Certificate provides for a total of 50,000,000 authorized shares; 45,000,000 common stock shares with a $0.01 par value, and 5,000,000 preferred stock shares with a $1.00 par value. Presently, Old Planet has a total authorized shares of 25,000,000; 20,000,000 common stock shares and 5,000,000 preferred stock shares. As such with approval of the Merger, New Planet will have an additional 25,000,000 of authorized common stock shares.
     The purpose of the increase in the number of authorized Common Shares is to assure that we have sufficient Shares available for general corporate purposes including, without limitation, equity financings, acquisitions, establishing strategic relationships with corporate partners, providing equity incentives to new and existing employees, payments of stock dividends, or effecting stock splits or other recapitalizations. We may seek additional capital from several sources, including the sale of our Common Shares. As of the date hereof, we have no plans to issue all or any significant percentage of the additional Common Shares to be authorized by the Certificate of Incorporation.
     The common stock of the Company traded on the over-the-counter market in the so-called OTC Bulletin board (“OTC Board”) and, after the Reincorporation Merger, New Planet’s common stock will continue to be traded on the OTC Board without interruption, under the same symbol “PLNT” as the shares of common stock of Old Planet are currently traded.
     Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, the Company and New Planet promise to take all actions that Delaware law and California law require for the Company and New Planet to effect the reincorporation merger.
     The reincorporation merger would only make a change in the legal domicile of the Company and certain other changes of a legal nature which are described in this proxy statement. The reincorporation merger would not result in any change in the name, business, management, fiscal year, consolidated assets or liabilities or location of the principal offices of the Company. We believe that the proposed reincorporation will not affect any of our material contracts with any third parties and that our rights and obligations under such material contractual arrangements will continue and be assumed by the surviving corporation.

Table of Contents

     If the reincorporation merger is effected, all employee benefit plans of the Company (including all stock option plans) will be assumed and continued by the surviving corporation. Approval of the reincorporation merger will also constitute approval of the assumption of these plans by New Planet.
     Each stock option issued and outstanding pursuant to such plans would be converted automatically into a stock option award with respect to the same number of shares of common stock of the surviving corporation, upon the same terms and subject to the same conditions as set forth in the applicable plan under which the award was granted and in the agreement reflecting the award.
     VOTE REQUIRED FOR REINCORPORATION PROPOSAL AND BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDATION.
     California law requires the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of common stock of the Company to approve the Merger Agreement pursuant to which the Company and New Planet would effect the reincorporation merger. Approval of the reincorporation merger Proposal would also constitute an approval of the Merger Agreement and therefore the reincorporation merger. A vote in favor of the reincorporation proposal is also effectively a vote in favor of the Delaware Certificate and the Delaware Bylaws. If the shareholders approve the Merger Agreement and the reincorporation merger becomes effective, the Delaware Certificate and the Delaware Bylaws attached hereto as Exhibits “C” and “D” would respectively become the Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws of the surviving corporation.
     THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS UNANIMOUSLY APPROVED AND RECOMMENDS THAT YOU VOTE “FOR” THE PROPOSED REINCORPORATION. THE EFFECT OF AN ABSTENTION OR A BROKER NON VOTE IS THE SAME AS THAT OF A VOTE AGAINST THE REINCORPORATION PROPOSAL.
PRINCIPAL REASONS FOR THE REINCORPORATION
     For many years, Delaware has followed a policy of encouraging corporations to incorporate in that state. More than 58% of Fortune 500 companies are incorporated in Delaware. In furtherance of Delaware’s policy to encourage corporations in that state, Delaware has been a leader in adopting, construing and implementing comprehensive and flexible corporate laws that have been responsive to the evolving legal and business needs of corporations organized under Delaware law. The Board and management believe that it is essential to be able to draw upon well established principles of corporate governance in making legal and business decisions. Management also believes that Delaware law is better suited than California law to protect shareholder’s interests in the event of an unsolicited takeover attempt. We are not aware that any person is currently attempting to acquire control of the Company, to obtain representation on our Board of Directors or take any action that would materially affect the governance of the Company.
     Additionally, our management believes that, as a Delaware corporation, the Company would be better able to continue to attract and retain qualified directors and officers than it would be able to as a California corporation in part because Delaware law provides more predictability with the issue of liability of directors and officers than California law does. The increasing frequency of claims against directors and officers that are litigated has greatly expanded the risks to directors and officers of exercising their respective duties. The amount of time and money required to respond to and litigate such claims can be substantial. Although California law and Delaware law both permit a corporation to include a provision in the corporation’s Articles or Certificate, as the case may be, that in certain circumstances reduces or limits the monetary liability of directors for breaches of their fiduciary duty of care, Delaware as stated above, provides to directors and officers more predictability than California does and, therefore, provides directors and officers of a Delaware corporation a greater comfort as to their risk of liability than the comfort afforded under California law. Our Board, therefore believes that the proposed reincorporation may be a significant factor in continuing to attract and retain such individuals, and in freeing them to make corporate decisions on their own merits and for the benefit of shareholders, rather than out of a desire to avoid personal liability. For additional discussion of this matter, see “Significant Differences Between the Corporation Laws of California and Delaware — Indemnification and Limitation of Liability.”
     Our management has considered the following benefits of Delaware’s corporate legal framework in deciding to propose reincorporating in Delaware:
    The DGCL, which is generally acknowledged to be the most advanced and flexible corporate statute in the country;
 
    The Delaware General Assembly, which each year considers and adopts statutory amendments that the corporation law section of the Delaware State Bar Association proposes in an effort to ensure that the corporate statute continues to be responsive to the changing needs of businesses;

10


Table of Contents

    The Delaware Court of Chancery, which handles complex corporate issues with the level of experience and a degree of sophistication and understanding unmatched by any other court in the country, and the Delaware Supreme Court which is highly regarded;
 
    The well-established body of case law construing Delaware law, which has developed over the last century and which provides businesses with a greater predictability than most, if not all, other jurisdictions provide; and
 
    The responsiveness and efficiency of the division of corporations of the Secretary of State of Delaware, which uses computer technology that is on the cutting edge.
     Any direct benefit that Delaware law provides to corporations indirectly benefits the shareholders, who are the owners of the corporations. For the reasons discussed in this Proxy Statement, we believe that the Company and our shareholders will benefit in the near and longer term from reincorporating in Delaware.
COMPANY
     The reincorporation will effect only a change in the legal domicile of the Company and certain other changes of a legal nature, including those described in this proxy statement. The reincorporation will NOT result in any change in the name, business, management, fiscal year, assets or liabilities, or location of the principal facilities of the Company. The current directors and officers of the Company will become the directors and officers of New Planet. All employee benefits and stock options of the Company will be assumed and continued by New Planet, and each option or right to purchase shares of the Company Common Stock will automatically be converted into an option or right to purchase the same number of shares of New Planet Common Stock at the same price per share, upon the same terms, and subject to the same conditions. Other employee benefit arrangements of the Company will also be continued by New Planet upon the terms and subject to the conditions currently in effect. As noted above, after the merger the shares of New Planet Common Stock will continue to be quoted without interruption on the OTC Board under the same symbol PLNT. The Company believes that the Reincorporation will not affect any of its material contracts with any third parties and that the Company’s rights and obligations under such material contractual arrangements will continue and be assumed by New Planet
     Although in some circumstances California law provides shareholders with the right to dissent from certain corporate reorganizations and receive cash for their shares, California does not permit dissenter’s rights in connection with the proposed reincorporation.
ANTI-TAKEOVER IMPLICATIONS
     Delaware, like many other states, permits a corporation to adopt a number of measures through the amendment of the corporate charter or bylaws which are designed to reduce a corporation’s vulnerability to unsolicited takeover attempts. It should be noted, however, the reincorporation was NOT proposed to prevent such a change in control, and the Board is not aware of any present attempt to acquire control of the Company, or to obtain representation on the Board.
     Certain differences between California and Delaware law, which would be effective upon consummation of the reincorporation merger without further action of our Board or shareholders, could have a bearing on unapproved takeover attempts. Section 203 of the DGCL, which New Planet does not intend to opt out of, restricts “certain business combinations” with “interested shareholders” for three years following the date that a person becomes an interested shareholder, unless the Board approves the business combination. For a discussion of the differences between the laws of California and Delaware that may affect the shareholders see “Significant Differences Between the Corporation Laws of California and Delaware” discussed below.
     The Board believes that unsolicited takeover attempts may be unfair or disadvantageous to the Company, to New Planet, and to the owners of their securities because, among other reasons, a non-negotiated takeover bid: (i) may be timed to take advantage of temporarily depressed share prices; (ii) may be designed to foreclose or minimize the possibility of more favorable competing bids or alternative transactions; and (iii) may involve the acquisition of only a controlling interest in the corporation’s shares, without affording all shareholders the opportunity to receive the same economic benefits.
     By contrast, in a transaction in which a potential acquiror must negotiate with an independent board of directors, the board can and should take account of the underlying and long-term values of the corporation’s business, technology, and other assets, the

11


Table of Contents

possibilities for alternative transactions on more favorable terms, possible advantages from a tax-free reorganization, anticipated favorable developments in the corporation’s business not yet reflected in the share price, and equality of treatment of all shareholders.
     Despite the belief of the Board as to the benefits to shareholders of the reincorporation merger, it may be disadvantageous to the extent that it has the effect of discouraging a future takeover attempt which is not approved by New Planet’s board of directors, but which a majority of the shareholders may deem to be in their best interests or in which shareholders may receive a substantial premium for their shares over the then current market value or over their cost bases in such shares. As a result, shareholders who might wish to participate in an unsolicited tender offer may not have an opportunity to do so. In addition, to the extent that provisions of Delaware law enable the board of directors to resist a takeover or a change in control of New Planet, such provisions could make it more difficult to change New Planet’s existing board of directors and management.
COMPARISON OF THE CHARTERS AND BYLAWS OF THE COMPANY AND NEW PLANET
     There are significant similarities between the Delaware Certificate and the Company’s current amended and restated articles of incorporation (the “California Articles”). For example neither the Delaware Certificate nor the California Articles provide for a classified Board of Directors.
     We have also provided that the Delaware Certificate and Delaware Bylaws contain certain provisions that will enable shareholders of New Planet to have rights similar to those that are automatically applicable to Old Planet but that are not required by Delaware law. Specifically, under California law holders of ten percent of the Company’s shares have the right to call special meetings of shareholders; the Delaware Bylaws would provide shareholders of New Planet the same right. In addition, under California law, shareholders have the right to take action in lieu of a meeting by unanimous written consent; shareholders of New Planet will have the same right because the Delaware Certificate does not preclude shareholders from acting by written consent.
     The following discussion is a summary of the material differences between the California Articles and bylaws (“California Bylaws”) of Old Planet and the Delaware Certificate and Delaware Bylaws. All statements herein are qualified in their entirety by reference to the respective corporation laws of California and Delaware and the full text of the California Articles and California Bylaws and the Delaware Certificate and Delaware Bylaws. Approval by our shareholders of the reincorporation merger will automatically result in the adoption of all the provisions set forth in the Delaware Certificate and the Delaware Bylaws. A copy of the Delaware Certificate is attached hereto as Appendix D and a copy of the Delaware Bylaws is attached hereto as Exhibit D. The California Articles and California Bylaws are on file with the SEC and are available from the Company upon request.
Cumulative Voting.
     Cumulative voting entitles a shareholder to cast as many votes as there are directors to be elected, multiplied by the number of shares registered in such shareholders name. The shareholder may cast all of such votes for a single nominee or may distribute them among any two or more nominees. Under California law, shareholders of the corporation have the right to cumulative voting unless the corporation has outstanding shares listed on the New York Stock Exchange or the American Stock Exchange, or has outstanding securities qualified for trading on the NASDAQ national market and the corporation opts out of cumulative voting. Shareholders of the Company currently have the right to cumulative voting.
     Under Delaware law, cumulative voting in the election of directors is not permitted unless specifically provided for in a Company’s charter or bylaws. The Delaware Certificate will not provide the cumulative voting. Therefore, shareholders would not have the right to cumulative voting if the reincorporation proposal is approved.
Filling Vacancies on the Board of Directors
     Under California law, any vacancy on the Board other than one created by removal of a director may be filled by the Board. If the number of directors is less than a quorum, a vacancy may be filled by the unanimous written consent of the directors then in office, by the affirmative vote of a majority of the directors at a meeting held pursuant to notice or waivers of notice or by a sole remaining director. A vacancy created by removal of a director may be filled by the Board only if so authorized by a corporation’s articles of incorporation or by a bylaw provision approved by the corporation’s shareholders. Neither the California Articles nor the California Bylaws permit directors to fill vacancies created by the removal of a director, except under certain limited circumstances.
     Under Delaware law, vacancies and newly created directorships may be filled by a majority of directors then in office, even if less than a quorum, or by a sole remaining director, unless otherwise provided in a corporation’s Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws (or

12


Table of Contents

unless the Certificate of Incorporation directs that a particular class of stock is to elect such director(s), in which case a majority of the directors elected by such class, or a sole remaining director so elected, shall fill such vacancy or newly created directorship). The Delaware Bylaws provide that any vacancy, including any vacancy created by the removal of a director by the shareholders of New Planet, may be filled by a majority of the directors then in office, even if less than a quorum, or by a sole remaining director.
Monetary Liability of Directors.
     The California Articles and the Delaware Certificate both provide for the elimination of personal monetary liability of directors to the fullest extent permissible under the law of the respective states. The provision eliminating monetary liability of directors set forth in the Delaware Certificate is potentially more expansive than the corresponding provision in the California Articles due to differences between California and Delaware law. For a more detailed explanation of the foregoing, see “Significant Differences Between the Corporation Laws of California and Delaware — Limitation of Liability and Indemnification,” below.
Indemnification.
     The Delaware Certificate permits New Planet to indemnify its officers and directors to the fullest extent permitted under Delaware law. The Delaware Bylaws require New Planet to indemnify and hold harmless each person who was or is a party, or threatened to be made a party, or is involved in any proceeding by reason of the fact that he or she is or was, or has agreed to become, a director, officer, employee or agent of New Planet, or is or was serving at the request of New Planet as a director, officer, or employee, or in a similar capacity with another entity, or by reason of any action alleged to have been taken or omitted in such capacity, against all expenses, (including attorney’s fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement reasonably incurred and suffered by or for him or her in connection with such proceeding or in any related appeal, provided that if the proceeding was initiated by the indemnified person, such proceeding must be authorized by the board of directors of the corporation.
     Expenses incurred by an officer or director in defending an action may be paid in advance, under Delaware law, if such director or officer undertakes to repay such amounts if it is ultimately determined that he or she is not entitled to indemnification. In addition, Delaware law authorizes a corporation to purchase indemnity insurance for the benefit of its officers, directors, employees and agents whether or not the corporation would have the power to indemnify against the liability covered by the policy.
     The California Articles authorized the Company to provide indemnification of agents for breach of duty to the Company and its shareholders and the California Bylaws require the Company to indemnify its directors to the fullest extent not prohibited under California law. In addition, the California Bylaws allow the Company to indemnify its officers, employees and agents pursuant to California law.
     For a further discussion of indemnification see the paragraph below entitled “Significant Differences Between the Corporation Laws of California and Delaware — Indemnification and Limitation of Liability.”
Bylaw Amendments.
     Under California law, the Bylaws may be amended by either the affirmative vote of the majority of the outstanding shares entitled to vote, or subject to certain limitations, by approval of the Board. The California Articles provide that the Board of Directors shall have the power to adopt, amend, alter or repeal the Bylaws, other than a Bylaw changing the maximum or minimum number of directors or changing whether the Board is fixed or variable, which may only be adopted by the affirmative vote of the holders of at least a majority of the votes entitled to be cast in any annual election of directors.
     The Delaware Certificate provides that the Bylaws may be adopted, repealed, altered or amended by either the affirmative vote of the holders of at least a majority of the votes entitled to be cast in any annual election of directors or by approval of the Board.
SIGNIFICANT DIFFERENCES BETWEEN THE CORPORATION LAWS OF CALIFORNIA AND DELAWARE
     The following provides a summary of major substantive differences between the Corporation Laws of California and Delaware. It is not an exhaustive description of all differences between the two states’ laws.

13


Table of Contents

Shareholder Approval of Certain Business Combinations
     Delaware. Under Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, a Delaware corporation is prohibited from engaging in a “business combination” with an “interested stockholder” for three years following the date that such person or entity becomes an interested stockholder. With certain exceptions, an interested stockholder is a person or entity who or which owns, individually or with or through certain other persons or entities, 15% or more of the corporation’s outstanding voting shares (including any rights to acquire shares pursuant to an option, warrant, agreement, arrangement, or understanding, or upon the exercise of conversion or exchange rights, and shares with respect to which the person or entity has voting rights only). The three-year moratorium imposed by Section 203 on business combinations does not apply if (i) prior to the date on which such stockholder becomes an interested stockholder the board of directors of the subject corporation approves either the business combination or the transaction that resulted in the person or entity becoming an interested stockholder; (ii) upon consummation of the transaction that made him or her an interested stockholder, the interested stockholder owns at least 85% of the corporation’s voting shares outstanding at the time the transaction commenced (excluding from the 85% calculation shares owned by directors who are also officers of the subject corporation and shares held by employee stock plans that do not give employee participants the right to decide confidentially whether to accept a tender or exchange offer); or (iii) on or after the date such person or entity becomes an interested stockholder, the board approves the business combination and it is also approved at a stockholders’ meeting by 66 2/3% of the outstanding voting shares not owned by the interested stockholder. Although a Delaware corporation to which Section 203 applies may elect not to be governed by Section 203, the Board intends that New Planet be, and New Planet has elected to be, governed by Section 203.
     The Company believes that Section 203 will encourage any potential acquiror to negotiate with New Planet’s board of directors. Section 203 also might have the effect of limiting the ability of a potential acquiror to make a two-tiered bid for New Planet in which all stockholders would not be treated equally. Shareholders should note, however, that the application of Section 203 to New Planet will confer upon the board of directors the power to reject a proposed business combination in certain circumstances, even though a potential acquiror may be offering a substantial premium for New Planet’s shares over the then-current market price. Section 203 would also discourage certain potential acquirors unwilling to comply with its provisions.
     California. California law provides that, in the case of a cash and certain other mergers of a California corporation with another corporation, where the latter corporation or certain of its affiliates own shares having more than 50% but less than 90% of the voting power of that first corporation, the merger must be approved by all of the first corporation’s shareholders or the California Commissioner of Corporations must determine after a hearing that the terms and conditions of the merger are fair. This provision of California law may have the effect of making a “cash-out” merger by a majority shareholder more difficult to accomplish. Although Delaware law does not parallel California law in this respect, under some circumstances Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law does provide protection to stockholders against coercive two-tiered bids for a corporation in which the stockholders are not treated equally.
Classified Board of Directors
     A classified board is one on which a certain number, but not all, of the directors are elected on a rotating basis each year.
     Delaware. Delaware law permits a corporation to establish a classified board of directors, pursuant to which the directors can be divided into as many as three classes with staggered three-year terms of office, with only one class of directors standing for election each year. New Planet’s Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws do not provide for a classified board.
     California. Under California law, certain publicly traded companies may adopt a classified board of directors by adopting amendments to their charter or bylaws, which amendments must be approved by the shareholders. Old Planet’s Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws do not currently provide for a classified board.
Removal of Directors
     Delaware. Under Delaware law, any director or the entire board of directors of a corporation that does not have a classified board of directors or cumulative voting may be removed with or without cause with the approval of at least a majority of the outstanding shares entitled to vote at an election of directors. New Planet’s Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws do not provide for a classified board, and, therefore, directors can be removed with or without cause.
     California. Under California law, any director or the entire board of directors may be removed with or without cause, with the approval of a majority of the outstanding shares entitled to vote; however, no individual director may be removed (unless the entire board is removed) if the number of votes cast against such removal, or not consenting in writing to such removal, would be sufficient to elect the director under cumulative voting.

Table of Contents

Limitation of Liability
     California law and Delaware law both permit a corporation to adopt a charter provision eliminating or limiting, with exceptions, the monetary liability of a director to the corporation or its shareholders for breach of the director’s duty.
     Delaware. New Planet’s Certificate of Incorporation eliminates the liability of directors to the corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as directors to the fullest extent permitted by Delaware law, as that law exists currently and as it may be amended in the future. Under Delaware law, such a provision may not eliminate or limit a director’s monetary liability for: (i) breaches of the director’s duty of loyalty to the corporation or its stockholders; (ii) acts or omissions not in good faith or involving intentional misconduct or knowing violations of law; (iii) the payment of unlawful dividends or stock repurchases or redemptions; or (iv) transactions in which the director received an improper personal benefit. This provision in New Planet’s Certificate of Incorporation also does not eliminate or limit a director’s liability for violations of federal law (such as the federal securities laws) and certain state laws (including state securities laws), or affect the availability of non-monetary remedies such as injunctive relief or rescission.
     California. California law permits California corporations to include, in their charters, a provision eliminating or limiting the monetary liability of the corporation’s directors to the corporation or its shareholders for breaches of their duties as directors, subject to exceptions that are similar but not identical to the exceptions specified by Delaware law. Old Planet’s Articles of Incorporation presently includes a comparable provision under California law. In some circumstances, monetary liability of directors and officers could arise under California law and Old Planet’s Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws that would be eliminated under Delaware law and New Planet’s Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws.
Indemnification
     California and Delaware each have laws, similar in some respects but not identical, regarding indemnification by a corporation of its officers, directors, employees, and agents. Old Planet has indemnification agreements with its officers and directors indemnifying them to the fullest extent not prohibited under California law, and New Planet anticipates, if the Reincorporation is approved, entering into similar agreements with its officers and directors. Although the law in this regard is not certain, shareholders who vote in favor of the Delaware Reincorporation, and thereby approve the new indemnification agreements, may be prevented from challenging the validity of the indemnification agreements in a subsequent court proceeding.
     The indemnification and limitation of liability provisions of California law, and not Delaware law, will apply to actions of the directors and officers of Old Planet made prior to the Reincorporation. Nevertheless, the Board has recognized in considering the Reincorporation that the individual directors have a personal interest in obtaining the application of Delaware law to such indemnity and limitation of liability issues affecting them and the Company. In the event liabilities arise from events occurring after Reincorporation, the application of Delaware law and the New Planet Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws would result in an additional expense to the Company to the extent that any director or officer is actually indemnified in circumstances where indemnification would not be available under California law and the Old Planet Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws. The Board believes, however, that the overall effect of the Reincorporation is to provide a corporate legal environment that enhances the Company’s ability to attract and retain high quality outside directors and thus benefits the interests of the Company and its shareholders.
     For a discussion of the indemnification provisions in California’s Articles and California Bylaws and New Planet’s Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws, see the paragraph above entitled “The Charter and Bylaws of Old Planet and New Planet — Indemnification.”
     There is no pending or, to the Company’s knowledge, threatened litigation to which any of its directors is a party in which the rights of the Company or its shareholders would be affected if the Company currently were subject to the provisions of Delaware law rather than California law and the Old Planet indemnification agreements.
     Delaware. Delaware law generally permits the indemnification of expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines, and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred in the defense or settlement of a direct, derivative, or third-party action, provided there is a determination by a majority vote of a disinterested quorum of the directors or a committee of the board, by independent legal counsel, or by the stockholders, that the person seeking indemnification acted in good faith and in a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in (or not opposed to) the best interests of the corporation and, with respect to any criminal action, had no reasonable cause to believe the conduct was unlawful. Without court approval, however, no indemnification may be made in respect of any action by the corporation, including any derivative action, in which the person was adjudged liable.

15


Table of Contents

     Delaware law requires indemnification of reasonable defense expenses incurred by a director or officer, in any such proceeding, to the extent the director or officer was successful in the defense of the proceeding. Expenses incurred by an officer or director in defending an action may be advanced before the conclusion of a proceeding, under Delaware law, if the individual undertakes to repay such amounts if it ultimately is determined that he or she is not entitled to indemnification. In addition, Delaware law authorizes a corporation to purchase insurance for the benefit of its officers and directors whether or not the corporation would have the power to indemnify against the liability covered by the policy but subject to limits imposed by insurance law.
     California. California law permits a California corporation to indemnify any director, officer, employee, or agent of the corporation for expenses, monetary damages, fines, and settlement amounts to the extent, as determined by a majority vote of a disinterested quorum of directors, independent legal counsel, disinterested shareholders, or the court in which the proceeding is pending, that the individual acted in good faith and in a manner he or she believed to be in the best interests of the corporation and, with respect to any criminal action, had no reasonable cause to believe the conduct was unlawful. California law does not permit indemnification if the person is held liable to the corporation, including in a derivative action, except to the extent that an appropriate court concludes that despite the adjudication of liability but in view of all the circumstances, the person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnification for those expenses that the court deems proper.
     California law requires indemnification of reasonable defense expenses incurred by a director, officer, employee or agent, in any such proceeding, to the extent the director, officer, employee or agent was successful in the defense of the proceeding. Expenses incurred by an officer, director, employee or agent in defending an action may be advanced before the conclusion of a proceeding, under California law, if the individual undertakes to repay such amounts if it ultimately is determined that he or she is not entitled to indemnification. In addition, California law authorizes a corporation to purchase insurance for the benefit of its officers, directors, employees, and agents whether or not the corporation would have the power to indemnify against the liability covered by the policy but subject to limits imposed by insurance law.
Inspection of Shareholder List and Books and Records
     Both California and Delaware law allow any shareholder to inspect the shareholder list for a purpose reasonably related to such person’s interest as a shareholder. California law provides, in addition, for an absolute right to inspect and copy the corporation’s shareholder list by persons holding an aggregate of 5% or more of the corporation’s voting shares, or shareholders holding an aggregate of 1% or more of such shares who have filed a Schedule 14A with the SEC. Finally, California law permits any shareholder, on written demand to the corporation, to inspect the corporation’s accounting books and records and minutes of proceedings of the shareholders and Board and committees of the Board for any purpose reasonably related to the shareholder’s interest as such. Delaware law also permits any stockholder of record, upon compliance with procedures specified in the Delaware General Corporation Law, to inspect a list of stockholders entitled to vote at a meeting and the corporation’s other books and records for any proper purpose reasonably related to such person’s interest as a stockholder. However, Delaware law contains no provision comparable to the absolute right of inspection provided by California law to certain shareholders.
Dividends and Repurchases of Shares
     California law dispenses with the concepts of par value of shares as well as statutory definitions of capital, surplus, and the like. The concepts of par value, capital, and surplus exist under Delaware law. The Company has never paid a cash dividend, and New Planet does not anticipate paying cash dividends in the immediate future.
     Delaware. Delaware law permits a corporation to declare and pay dividends out of surplus or, if there is no surplus, out of net profits for the fiscal year in which the dividend is declared and/or for the preceding fiscal year as long as the amount of capital of the corporation following the declaration and payment of the dividend is not less than the aggregate amount of the capital represented by the issued and outstanding shares of all classes having a preference upon the distribution of assets. In addition, Delaware law generally provides that a corporation may redeem or repurchase its shares only if the capital of the corporation is not impaired and such redemption or repurchase would not impair the capital of the corporation.
     California. Under California law, a corporation may not make any distribution to its shareholders unless either: (i) the corporation’s retained earnings immediately prior to the proposed distribution equal or exceed the amount of the proposed distribution, or (ii) immediately after giving effect to such distribution, the corporation’s assets (exclusive of goodwill, capitalized research and

16


Table of Contents

development expenses, and deferred charges) would be at least equal to 125% of its liabilities (not including deferred taxes, deferred income, and other deferred credits), and the corporation’s current assets would be at least equal to its current liabilities (or 125% of its current liabilities if the average pre-tax and pre-interest expense earnings for the preceding two fiscal years were less than the average interest expense for such years). Such tests are applied to California corporations on a consolidated basis.
Shareholder Voting
     Amendment of Charter Documents. Under California and Delaware law, the provisions of a corporation’s charter document may be amended by the affirmative vote of the holders of a simple majority of the outstanding shares entitled to vote on such an amendment. California law permits the board of directors to amend the corporation’s articles of incorporation after shares have been issued without a vote of shareholders in certain circumstances, including to adopt an amendment effecting a stock split where a corporation has only one class of shares. Delaware law contains no comparable provision.
     Statutory Mergers. Delaware law does not require the vote of the stockholders of a Delaware parent corporation whose subsidiary is involved in a merger with another corporation unless the parent corporation itself is a “constituent corporation” in the merger. Under California law, the vote of the shareholders of a California parent corporation is required in certain circumstances when the California corporation’s subsidiary merges with another corporation. Those circumstances include the situation in which shares of the California parent corporation are issued to the shareholders of the acquired company and the shareholders of the California parent corporation immediately prior to the merger own less than 83.3% of the California parent corporation’s shares immediately following the merger.
     Both California and Delaware law generally require that the holders of a majority of the shares of the constituent corporations in a statutory merger approve the merger. However, Delaware law does not require a vote of stockholders of the surviving corporation in a merger (unless the corporation provides otherwise in its certificate of incorporation) if (i) the merger agreement does not amend the corporation’s existing certificate of incorporation; (ii) each share of the surviving corporation outstanding immediately before the effective date of the merger is an identical outstanding share after the merger; and (iii) either no shares of common stock of the surviving corporation and no shares, securities, or obligations convertible into such stock are to be issued or delivered under the plan of merger, or the authorized unissued shares or shares of common stock of the surviving corporation to be issued or delivered under the plan of merger plus those initially issuable upon conversion of any other shares, securities, or obligations to be issued or delivered under such plan do not exceed 20% of the shares of common stock of such corporation outstanding immediately prior to the effective date of the merger. California law contains a similar exception to its voting requirements for reorganizations where shareholders or the corporation itself, or both, immediately prior to the reorganization will own immediately after the reorganization equity securities constituting more than 83.3% of the voting power of the surviving or acquiring corporation or its parent entity.
Action by Written Consent
     Delaware. Under Delaware law, and unless otherwise provided in a Delaware corporation’s certificate of incorporation, any action that may be taken at a stockholders’ meeting may be taken without a meeting if a written consent, setting forth the action so taken, is signed by the holders of outstanding stock having sufficient votes to take such action at a meeting at which all shares entitled to vote on such action were present and voting. New Planet’s Certificate of Incorporation does not contain any provision limiting the ability of stockholders to take action by written consent.
     California. Under California law, and unless otherwise provided in a California corporation’s articles of incorporation, any action that may be taken at a shareholders’ meeting may be taken without a meeting if a written consent, setting forth the action so taken, is signed by the holders of outstanding shares having sufficient votes to take such action at a meeting at which all shares entitled to vote on such action were present and voting. California’s Articles do not contain any provision limiting the ability of shareholders to take action by written consent.
Appraisal Rights
     Under both California and Delaware law, a shareholder of a corporation participating in certain major corporate transactions may, under varying circumstances, be entitled to appraisal rights, pursuant to which such shareholder may receive cash in the amount of the fair market value of his, her or its shares in lieu of the consideration he, she or it would otherwise receive in the transaction.
     Delaware. Under Delaware law, such fair market value is determined exclusive of any element of value arising from the accomplishment or expectation of the merger or consolidation, and such appraisal rights are not available: (i) with respect to the sale,

17


Table of Contents

lease, or exchange of all or substantially all of the assets of a corporation; (ii) with respect to a merger or consolidation by a corporation the shares of which are either listed on a national securities exchange or are held of record by more than 2,000 holders if such stockholders receive only shares of the surviving corporation or shares of any other corporation that are either listed on a national securities exchange or held of record by more than 2,000 holders, plus cash in lieu of fractional shares of such corporations; or (iii) to stockholders of a corporation surviving a merger if no vote of the stockholders of the surviving corporation is required to approve the merger under Delaware law.
     California. The limitations on the availability of appraisal rights under California law are different from those under Delaware law. Shareholders of a California corporation whose shares are listed on a national securities exchange generally do not have such appraisal rights unless the holders of at least 5% of the class of outstanding shares claim the right, or transfer of such shares is restricted by the corporation or any law or regulation. Appraisal rights are also unavailable if the shareholders of a corporation or the corporation itself, or both, immediately prior to the reorganization will own immediately after the reorganization equity securities constituting more than 83.3% of the voting power of the surviving or acquiring corporation or its parent entity. California law generally affords appraisal rights in sale of assets reorganizations. Under California dissenters’ law, fair market value is measured as of the day before the first announcement of the terms of a merger, excluding any appreciation or depreciation in stock value as a result of the proposed action.
Fairness Opinion Requirement
     California law provides that, except in certain circumstances, when a tender offer or a proposal for a reorganization or for a sale of assets is made by an interested party (generally a controlling or managing party of the target corporation), an affirmative opinion in writing as to the fairness of the consideration to be paid to the shareholders must be delivered to the shareholders. This fairness opinion requirement does not apply to a corporation that does not have shares held of record by at least 100 persons, or to a transaction that has been qualified under selected provisions of California state securities laws. Furthermore, if a tender of shares or vote is sought pursuant to an interested party’s proposal and a later proposal is made by another party at least ten days prior to the date of acceptance of the interested party proposal, the shareholders must be informed of the later offer and be afforded a reasonable opportunity to withdraw any vote, consent, or proxy, or to withdraw any tendered shares. Delaware law has no comparable provision.
Dissolution
     Delaware. Under Delaware law, unless the board of directors approves the proposal to dissolve, the dissolution must be unanimously approved by all the stockholders entitled to vote thereon. Only if the dissolution is initially approved by the board of directors may the dissolution be approved by a simple majority of the outstanding shares of the corporation’s stock entitled to vote. In the event of such a board-initiated dissolution, Delaware law allows a Delaware corporation to include in its certificate of incorporation a supermajority (greater than a simple majority) voting requirement in connection with dissolutions. New Planet’s Certificate of Incorporation contains no such supermajority voting requirement.
     California. Under California law, shareholders holding 50% or more of the total voting power of the corporation may elect to require a corporation’s dissolution, with or without the approval of the corporation’s board of directors, and this right may not be modified by the articles of incorporation. In any demand for voluntary dissolution by only 50% of the voting power of a California corporation, the Company or, if the Company does not elect to purchase, the shareholders not voting for dissolution of the corporation may avoid the dissolution of the corporation by purchasing for cash at fair value the shares owned by the parties initiating the dissolution proceeding. In addition, California law provides that 50% or more of the directors in office or shareholders holding 33 1/3% or more of the total outstanding shares may file a complaint in Superior Court for involuntary dissolution on any one or more of the grounds specified under California law.
Interested Director Transactions
     Under both California and Delaware law, certain contracts or transactions in which one or more of a corporation’s directors has an interest are not void or voidable simply because of such interest, provided that certain conditions are met, such as obtaining required disinterested board approval, fulfilling the requirements of good faith and full disclosure, or proving the fairness of the transaction. With minor exceptions, the conditions are similar under California and Delaware law.

Loans to Officers and Employees
     Delaware. Under Delaware law, a Delaware corporation may make loans to, guarantee the obligations of, or otherwise assist its officers or other employees and those of its subsidiaries (including directors who are also officers or employees) when such action, in the judgment of the directors, may reasonably be expected to benefit the corporation.
     California. Under California law, any loan or guaranty to or for the benefit of a director or officer of the corporation or its parent requires approval of the corporation’s shareholders unless an employee benefit plan authorizing the loan or guaranty was approved by shareholders owning a majority of the outstanding shares of the corporation. However, under California law, shareholders of any corporation with 100 or more shareholders of record may approve a bylaw authorizing the board of directors alone to approve loans or guaranties to or on behalf of officers (whether or not such officers are directors) if the board of directors determines that any such loan or guaranty may reasonably be expected to benefit the corporation. Old Planet’s Bylaws include such a provision. Old Planet’s Bylaws authorize loans to officers and directors in accordance with California law.
     Both Old Planet and New Planet (assuming the Reincorporation is consummated) are prohibited from making loans to their respective officers and directors pursuant to Section 402 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002.
Shareholder Derivative Suits
     Delaware. Under Delaware law, a stockholder may bring a derivative action on behalf of the corporation only if the stockholder was a stockholder of the corporation at the time of the transaction in question or if his, her or its stock thereafter devolved upon him, her or it by operation of law. Delaware does not have a bonding requirement.
     California. California law provides that a shareholder bringing a derivative action on behalf of a corporation need not have been a shareholder at the time of the transaction in question, provided that certain tests are met. California law also provides that the corporation or the defendant in a derivative suit may make a motion to the court for an order requiring the plaintiff shareholder to furnish a security bond.
CERTAIN UNITED STATES FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES
     The following is a discussion of certain United States federal income tax considerations that may be relevant to the Company’s shareholders who receive shares of New Planet Common Stock in exchange for their shares of the Company Common Stock as a result of the Reincorporation. The discussion addresses only the specific United States federal income tax consequences set forth below and does not address any other federal, state, local or foreign income, estate, gift, transfer, sales, use, or other tax consequences that may result from the Reincorporation or any other transaction, including any transaction undertaken in connection with the Reincorporation. The discussion does not address all of the tax consequences of the Reincorporation that may be relevant to particular shareholders of the Company, such as dealers in securities, or those shareholders who acquired their shares upon the exercise of options, nor does it address the tax consequences to holders of options or other rights to acquire shares of the Company Common Stock. IN VIEW OF THE VARYING NATURE OF SUCH TAX CONSEQUENCES, EACH SHAREHOLDER IS URGED TO CONSULT HIS, HER OR ITS OWN TAX ADVISOR AS TO THE SPECIFIC TAX CONSEQUENCES OF THE REINCORPORATION, INCLUDING THE APPLICABILITY OF FEDERAL, STATE, LOCAL, AND FOREIGN TAX LAWS.
     Subject to the limitations, qualifications, and exceptions described herein, and assuming the Reincorporation qualifies as a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code, the following tax consequences generally will result:
     (a) No gain or loss will be recognized by holders of the Company Common Stock upon receipt of New Planet Common Stock pursuant to the Reincorporation;
     (b) The aggregate tax basis of the New Planet Common Stock received by each shareholder in the Reincorporation will be equal to the aggregate tax basis of the Company Common Stock surrendered in exchange therefor; and
     (c) The holding period of the New Planet Common Stock received by each shareholder of the Company will include the period for which such shareholder held the Company Common Stock surrendered in exchange therefor, provided that the Company Common Stock was held by the shareholder as a capital asset at the time of the Reincorporation.
     The Company has not requested a ruling from the Internal Revenue Service, nor an opinion from its outside legal counsel, with respect to the federal income tax consequences of the Reincorporation under the Code. In any case, such an opinion would neither bind the IRS nor preclude it from asserting a contrary position.

19


Table of Contents

     State, local, or foreign income tax consequences to shareholders may vary from the federal tax consequences described above.
     The Company should not recognize gain or loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of the Reincorporation, and New Planet should succeed, without adjustment, to the federal income tax attributes of the Company.
SECURITIES ACT CONSEQUENCES
     The shares of the New Planet common stock to be issued in exchange for shares of the Company common stock are not being registered under the Securities Act of 1933. In that regard, New Planet is relying on Rule 145(a)(2) under the Securities Act, which provides that a merger which has “as its sole purpose” a change in the domicile of a corporation does not involve the sale of securities for purposes of the Securities Act of 1933, and on interpretations of that rule by the SEC, which indicate that the making of certain changes in the Company’s Articles of Incorporation which could otherwise be made only with the approval of the shareholders of either corporation does not render Rule 145(a)(2) inapplicable.
     After the Reincorporation, New Planet will continue to file periodic reports and other documents with the SEC and provide to its stockholders the same type of information that the Company has previously filed and provided. Stockholders holding restricted shares of the Company common stock will have shares of New Planet common stock that are subject to the same restrictions on transfer as those to which their present shares are subject, and their stock certificates, if surrendered for replacement certificates representing shares of New Planet common stock, will bear the same restrictive legend as appears on their present stock certificates. For purposes of computing compliance with the holding period requirement of Rule 144 under the Securities Act of 1933, stockholders will be deemed to have acquired their shares of New Planet common stock on the date full payment of the purchase price was made for the shares of the Company common stock. In summary, New Planet and its stockholders will be in the same respective positions under Rule 144 after the merger as were the Company and its shareholders prior to the merger.
INTEREST OF CERTAIN PERSONS IN, OR IN OPPOSITION TO, MATTERS TO BE ACTED UPON
As the Company anticipates that the officers and directors of New Planet (who are currently the officers and directors of the Company) will enter into new indemnification agreements, they may be deemed to have a personal interest in the Delaware Reincorporation. Other than as set forth in the preceding sentence, no person who has been a director or officer of the Company at any time since the beginning of the last fiscal year, nominee for election as a director of the Company, nor associate of the foregoing persons has any substantial interest, direct or indirect, in the Company’s change of state of incorporation that differs from that of other shareholders of the Company. No director of the Company opposed the Delaware Reincorporation.
THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS A VOTE IN FAVOR OF PROPOSAL ONE.
PROPOSAL 2
ELECTION OF DIRECTORS
     There are seven (7) nominees for the seven Board positions presently authorized by the Company’s current Bylaws. Each director to be elected will hold office until the next Annual Meeting of Shareholders and until his/her successor is elected and has qualified, or until such director’s earlier death, resignation or removal.
     Shares represented by executed proxies will be voted, if authority to do so is not withheld, for the election of the nominees named below. In the event that any nominee should be unavailable for election as a result of an unexpected occurrence, such shares will be voted for the election of such substitute nominee as management may propose. Each person nominated for election has agreed to serve if elected and management has no reason to believe that any nominee will be unable to serve.
     In any election of directors, the candidates receiving the highest number of affirmative votes cast at the meeting will be elected directors of the Company up to the authorized number of positions on the Board.

     The names of the nominees and certain information about each person is set forth below:

The Company’s Executive Officers are eligible for grants of options under the Company’s 2000 Stock Incentive Plan (“Plan”). As of December 31, 2005, there were no shares available for grant under the Plan, which was expanded by the Board of Directors to 500,000 in August 2005.

DESCRIPTION OF EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS
2000 Stock Incentive Plan
     Planet’s 2000 Stock Incentive Plan was approved by Planet’s shareholders at its annual meeting of shareholders on May 1, 2000. The Board of Directors reserved 500,000 shares of common stock for issuance under the 2000 Plan, together with any remaining shares of common stock eligible for issuance under the 1995 Stock Option plan which expire unexercised. A committee consisting of Planet’s Board of Directors or appointed Board members has the sole discretion to determine under which plan stock options and bonuses may be granted.
     The purpose of the 2000 Incentive Plan is similar to that of the 1995 Plan, which was to attract and retain qualified personnel, to provide additional incentives to employees, officers, directors and consultants of the Company and to promote the success of the Company’s business. As was the case under the 1995 Plan, under the 2000 Plan, Planet may grant or issue incentive stock options and non-statutory stock options to eligible participants, provided that incentive stock options may only be granted to employees of Planet. The 2000 Stock Incentive Plan also allows shares of common stock to be issued under a Stock Bonus Program through direct and immediate issuances. Similar to stock options granted under the Plan, stock bonus awards may be subjected to a vesting schedule determined by the Board of Directors. Option grants under both plans are discretionary. Options granted under both plans are subject to vesting as determined by the Board, provided that the option vests as to at least 20% of the shares subject to the option per year. The maximum term of a stock option under both plans is ten years, but if the optionee at the time of grant has voting power over more than 10% of the Company’s outstanding capital stock, the maximum term is five years under both plans. Under both plans if an optionee terminates his or her service to Planet, such optionee may exercise only those option shares vested as of the date of termination, and must affect such exercise within the period of time after termination set forth in the optionee’s option. The exercise price of incentive stock options granted under both plans must be at least equal to the fair market value of the Common Stock of the Company on the date of grant. Under both plans the exercise price of options granted to an optionee who owns stock possessing more than 10% of the voting power of Planet’s outstanding capital stock must equal at least 110% of the fair market value of the common stock on the date of grant. Payment of the exercise price may be made in cash, by delivery of other shares of the Company’s common stock or by any other form of legal consideration that may be acceptable to the Board.

401(k) Plan
     The Company provides a defined contribution 401(k) savings plan (the “401(k) Plan”) in which all full-time employees of the Company are eligible to participate. Eligible employees are permitted to contribute pre-tax salary to the 401(k) Plan subject to IRS limitations. Company contributions to the 401(k) Plan are at the discretion of the Board of Directors. There have been no Company contributions to the 401(k) Plan in 2005 or 2004.
EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENTS AND CHANGE IN CONTROL ARRANGEMENTS
     The Company has entered into an employment agreement with Scott L. Glenn as President/CEO and Chairman of the Board of the Company for a three-year period, which expires on November 29, 2007. The Company has agreed to pay Mr. Glenn a salary of $100 per month (plus healthcare and other benefits) until it is determined by the Board that the Company can afford to pay compensation comparable to CEOs of other similar companies. In exchange for foregoing a salary, the Company granted to Mr. Glenn stock options exercisable at the then fair market value at such time as may be required to main the aggregate number of stock options granted to Mr. Glenn an amount not less than five (5%) percent of the issued and outstanding stock of the Company (on a fully diluted basis) during his three year term of employment.
     During 2005, the Company entered into an employment agreement with the Subsidiary’s President and Chief Executive Officer and director for a four-year period, which expires in 2009. The contract provides for an annual salary of $200,000 (plus healthcare and other benefits) as well as a discretionary bonus for superior performance for exceeding sales, gross profits and profits plans for the year. The Company also granted stock options to acquire 120,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at $2.70 per share with 25% of the options vesting on August 10, 2006, and the balance at the rate of 1/36th of the balance per month, subject to any acceleration as provided under the Company’s 2000 Stock Option Plan.
     In January 2005, the Company agreed to employ Bret Megargel as Vice President of Marketing and Business Development, effective February 1, 2005, at an annualized salary of $96,000. In March 2005, Mr. Megargel’s annual salary was increased to $192,000 and 30,000 shares of stock options at $3.00 with accelerated vesting if certain marketing and development objectives were met by year end. These options became fully vested in December 2005. In December 2005, Mr. Megargel’s compensation was reduced to $100 per month and he was issued 18,000 additional stock options to purchase the Company’s stock at $2.70 per shares under standard vesting as provided by the Company’s 2000 Stock Option Plan.
     The Company has entered into a Consulting Agreement with Leslie White to which she retains the 30,000 options granted to her as Chief Financial Officer plus an hourly rate to be determined.
CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS
     On November 30, 2004, Planet acquired all of the assets of Allergy Free, LLC, which is the historical business described in this 10-KSB for approximately 1.65 million shares of Planet stock (after giving effect to the reverse stock split), a convertible note of $274,300, and assumption of debt. The transaction was completed pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger between Planet and Allergy Free, LLC. (“Agreement”) As a result of the acquisition, Allergy Free’s historical financial information is included in the consolidated financial results of Planet. Allergy Free, LLC, was and is controlled by Scott Glenn, who became Planet’s Chairman, President and CEO.
     Windamere III, LLC acquired 586,000 common stock shares in the Company which increased its holding in the Company to 22.2% of the outstanding shares. Fog City Fund, LLC acquired 500,000 common stock shares in the Company. With this acquisition, Fog City now owns 12.5% of the Company’s common stock.

PROPOSAL 3
AMENDMENT TO THE 2000 STOCK OPTION PLAN
Introduction
     Subject to Shareholder approval, the Company plans to amend its 2000 Stock Option Plan (the “2000 Plan”) to increase the number of shares of Common Stock issuable under the 2000 Plan from 350,000 shares to 2,000,000 shares. The purpose behind amending the plan is to allow the Company to retain the services of qualified individuals as directors, officers, employees, agents, consultants and independent contractors of the Company. An amendment to the Plan will allow the Company to retain the services of the current Board of Directors and executive officers of the Company and Edward J. Steube as President/CEO of ACP, as a subsidiary of the Company, and be able to use such shares in the future for other similar agreement with other directors and selected employees, officers, agents, consultants and independent contractors of the Company.
     The Company makes no guarantee as to the tax consequences described below with respect to the grant or exercise of an option, or sale of the stock covered by an option.
Description of the 2000 Plan, as Amended
     The number of shares of Common Stock with respect to which awards may be granted pursuant to the 2000 Plan will be sufficient to accommodate the retention of the current Board of Directors and executive officers of the Company and of Edward J. Steube as President/CEO of ACP, as a subsidiary of the Company, and possibly, in the future other key employees, officers and directors. Shares issuable under the 2000 Plan may be either treasury shares or authorized but unissued shares. The number of shares available for issuance will be subject to adjustment to prevent dilution in the event of stock splits, stock dividends or other changes in the capitalization of the Company.
     In addition, as consideration for services provided the Company, the following options have been granted by the Company, subject to approval of this Proposal 3:
New Plan Benefits

*   For services as a Vice President of the company, Mr. Megargel is no longer a Vice President. Mr. Megargel retains these options pursuant to an employment agreement with the Company.
     Subject to compliance with Rule 16b-3 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”), the 2000 Plan shall be administered by the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”) or, in the event the Board shall appoint and/or authorize a committee of two or more members of the Board to administer the 2000 Plan, by such committee (the “Plan Administrator”). Except for the terms and conditions explicitly set forth in the 2000 Plan, and subject to applicable provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) the Plan Administrator shall have the authority, in its discretion, to determine all matters relating to the options to be granted under the 2000 Plan, including, without limitation, selection of whether an option will be an incentive stock option or a nonqualified stock option, selection of the individuals to be granted options, the number of shares to be subject to each option, the exercise price per share, the timing of grants and all other terms and conditions of the options.
     Options granted under the 2000 Plan may be “incentive stock options” (“Incentive Options”) within the meaning of Section 422 of the Code or stock options which are not incentive stock options (“Non-Incentive Options” and, collectively with Incentive Options, hereinafter referred to as “Options”). Each Option may be exercised in whole or in part; provided, that only whole shares may be issued pursuant to the exercise of any Option. Subject to any other terms and conditions herein, the Plan Administrator may provide

31


Table of Contents

that an Option may not be exercised in whole or in part for a stated period or periods of time during which such Option is outstanding; provided, that the Plan Administrator may rescind, modify, or waive any such limitation (including by the acceleration of the vesting schedule upon a change in control of the Company) at any time and from time to time after the grant date thereof. During an optionee’s lifetime, any Incentive Options granted under the 2004 Plan are personal to such optionee and are exercisable solely by such optionee.
     The Plan Administrator can determine at the time the Option is granted in the case of Incentive Options, or at any time before exercise in the case of Non-Incentive Options, that additional forms of payment will be permitted. To the extent permitted by the Plan Administrator and applicable laws and regulations (including, without limitation, federal tax and securities laws and regulations and state corporate law), an Option may be exercised by:
     (a) delivery of shares of Common Stock of the Company held by an optionee having a fair market value equal to the exercise price, such fair market value to be determined in good faith by the Plan Administrator;
     (b) delivery of a properly executed notice of exercise, together with irrevocable instructions to a broker, all in accordance with the regulations of the Federal Reserve Board, to promptly deliver to the Company the amount of sale or loan proceeds to pay the exercise price and any federal, state, or local withholding tax obligations that may arise in connection with the exercise; or
     (c) delivery of a properly executed notice of exercise, together with instructions to the Company to withhold from the shares of Common Stock that would otherwise be issued upon exercise that number of shares of Common Stock having a fair market value equal to the option exercise price.
     To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Plan Administrator may also permit any participant to pay the option exercise price upon exercise of an Option by delivering a full-recourse, interest bearing promissory note payable in one or more installments and secured by the purchased shares. The terms of any such promissory note (including the interest rate and the terms of repayment) shall be established by the Plan Administrator in its sole discretion. In no event may the maximum credit available to the participant exceed the sum of (i) the aggregate option exercise price (less the par value of those shares) plus (ii) any federal, state and local income and employment tax liability incurred by the participant in connection with the option exercise.
     Upon a merger or consolidation in which securities possessing more than 25% of the total combined voting power of the Company’s outstanding securities are transferred to a person different from the person holding those securities immediately prior to such transaction, the sale, transfer or other disposition of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets in complete liquidation or dissolution of the Company the sale, transfer or other disposition of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets to an unrelated entity, or a change in the identity of more than three (3) directors over a two-year period each, a (“Corporate Transaction”), any award carrying a right to exercise that was not previously exercisable shall become fully exercisable, the restrictions, deferral limitations and forfeiture conditions applicable to any other award granted shall lapse and any performance conditions imposed with respect to awards shall be deemed to be fully achieved. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Option granted to an employee shall not become fully vested until such time as the employee experiences an involuntary termination of employment (other than on account of misconduct).
     Incentive Options granted under the 2000 Plan may not be transferred, pledged, mortgaged, hypothecated or otherwise encumbered other than by will or under the laws of descent and distribution, except that the Plan Administrator may permit transfers of awards for estate planning purposes if, and to the extent, such transfers do not cause a participant who is then subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act to lose the benefit of the exemption under Rule 16b-3 for such transactions.
     Additional rules apply under the Code to the grant of Incentive Options. For instance an Incentive Option must be exercised within 10 years after the date of grant, unless granted to an individual owning more than 10% of the Company’s stock, in which case the exercise period may not exceed five (5) years. Similarly, an Incentive Option must be granted at an exercise price that equals or exceeds 100% of the fair market value of the underlying stock at the time of grant, a threshold that is increased to 110% of such fair market value in the case of a grant to an individual owning more than 10% of the Company’s stock.
     For federal income tax purposes, the grant to an optionee of a Non-Incentive Option generally will not constitute a taxable event to the optionee or to the Company. Upon exercise of a Non-Incentive Option (or, in certain cases, a later tax recognition date), the optionee will recognize compensation income taxable as ordinary income, measured by the excess of the fair market value of the Common Stock purchased on the exercise date (or later tax recognition date) over the amount paid by the optionee for such Common Stock, and will be subject to federal income tax withholding. Upon recognition of income by the optionee, the Company may claim a deduction for the amount of such compensation. The optionee will have a tax basis in the Common Stock purchased equal to the

32


Table of Contents

amount paid plus the amount of ordinary income recognized upon exercise of the Non-Incentive Option. Upon the subsequent sale of the Common Stock received upon exercise of the Non-Incentive Option, an optionee will recognize capital gain or loss equal to the difference between the amount realized on such sale and his tax basis in the Common Stock, which may be long-term capital gain or loss if the optionee holds the Common Stock for more than one year from the exercise date.
     For federal income tax purposes, in general, neither the grant nor the exercise of an Incentive Option will constitute a taxable event to the optionee or to the Company, assuming the Incentive Option qualifies as an “incentive stock option” under Code §422. If an optionee does not dispose of the Common Stock acquired upon exercise of an Incentive Option during the statutory holding period, any gain or loss upon subsequent sale of the Common Stock will be long-term capital gain or loss, assuming the shares represent a capital asset in the optionee’s hands. The statutory holding period is the later of two years from the date the Incentive Option is granted or one year from the date the Common Stock is transferred to the optionee pursuant to the exercise of the Incentive Option. If the statutory holding period requirements are satisfied, the Company may not claim any federal income tax deduction upon either the exercise of the Incentive Option or the subsequent sale of the Common Stock received upon exercise thereof. If the statutory holding period requirement is not satisfied, the optionee will recognize compensation income taxable as ordinary income on the date the Common Stock is sold (or later tax recognition date) in an amount equal to the lesser of (i) the fair market value of the Common Stock on that date less the amount paid by the optionee for such Common Stock, or (ii) the amount realized on the disposition of the Common Stock less the amount paid by the optionee for such Common Stock; the Company may then claim a deduction for the amount of such compensation income.
     The federal income tax consequences summarized hereinabove are based upon current law and are subject to change.
     The Board may amend, alter, suspend, discontinue or terminate the 2000 Plan at any time, except that any such action shall be subject to shareholder approval at the annual meeting next following such Board action if such shareholder approval is required by federal or state law or regulation or the rules of any exchange or automated quotation system on which the Common Stock may then be listed or quoted, or if the Board of Directors otherwise determines to submit such action for shareholder approval. In addition, no amendment, alteration, suspension, discontinuation or termination to the 2000 Plan may materially impair the rights of any participant with respect to any vested Option granted before amendment without such participant’s consent. Unless terminated earlier by the Board, the 2000 Plan shall terminate upon the earliest to occur of (i) 10 years after the date on which the Board approves the 2004 Plan or (ii) the date on which all shares of Common Stock available for issuance under the 2000 Plan shall have been issued as vested shares. Upon such 2000 Plan termination, all Options and unvested stock issuances outstanding under the 2000 Plan shall continue to have full force and effect in accordance with the provisions of the agreements.
New Plan Benefits
     Previously authorized grants of options to certain executive officers and directors of the Company and its subsidiary, including Ms. Francesca DiNota, Mr. Scott Glenn, Mr. Bret Megargel, and Mr. Michael Walsh would be made effective by this proposed amendment to the Plan. In addition, the amendment to the Plan will allow the Company to retain the services of Mr. Steube as President of the Company’s ACP subsidiary. Information concerning stock option grants to the Company’s executive officers and directors is set forth under “Executive Compensation” beginning on page 26 of this Proxy Statement.

PROPOSAL 4
RATIFICATION OF SELECTION OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
     The Board of Directors has selected J. H. Cohn LLP as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2006, and has further directed that management submit the selection of independent registered public accounting firm for ratification by the shareholders at the Annual Meeting. J. H. Cohn LLP has audited the Company’s financial statements since 2001. Prior to 2001, PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP audited the Company’s financial statements since its inception in 1991. Representatives of J. H. Cohn LLP are expected to be present at the Annual Meeting, will have an opportunity to make a statement if they so desire and will be available to respond to appropriate questions.
     Shareholder ratification of the selection of J. H. Cohn LLP as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm is not required by the Company’s current Bylaws or otherwise. However, the Board is submitting the selection of J. H. Cohn LLP to the shareholders for ratification as a matter of good corporate practice. If the shareholders fail to ratify the selection, the Board will reconsider whether or not to retain that firm. Even if the selection is ratified, the Board in its discretion may direct the appointment of different independent registered public accounting firm at any time during the year if they determine that such a change would be in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders.
     The affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the shares presented in person or represented by proxy and voting at the Annual Meeting will be required to ratify the selection of J. H. Cohn LLP. For purposes of this vote, abstentions and broker non-votes will not be counted for any purpose in determining whether this matter has been approved.

     For professional services rendered by the independent registered public accounting firm for the audit of the Company’s annual financial statements and review of the unaudited financial statements included in the Company’s quarterly reports on Form 10-QSB. The aggregate fees billed by the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, J.H. Cohn LLP, for 2005 and 2004 were $175,930 and $34,300, respectively.
Audit Related Fees
     The aggregate fees billed in 2005 and 2004 by the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for assurance and related services by the independent registered public accounting firm that are reasonably related to the performance of the audit or review of the Company’s financial statements are in the amount of $8,500 and $10,660, respectively.
Tax Fees
     No fees were billed in 2005 and 2004 by the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for tax compliance, tax advice and tax planning.

This Annual Report on Form 10-KSB contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The Company intends that such statements shall be protected by the safe harbors provided for in such sections. Such statements are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause the Company’s actual results to vary materially from those projected in such forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to: our need for additional capital, fluctuations in operating results, continued new product introductions, market acceptance of our new product introductions, new product introductions by competitors, technological changes in the industry and those factors discussed in this section as well as those sections entitled “Risk Factors,” and in “Item 6 — Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.”
PART I.
Planet Technologies, Inc. (“Planet” or the “Company”) is a California Corporation incorporated on August 23, 1991.
ITEM 1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
General
On November 30, 2004, Planet acquired the business of Allergy Free, LLC, a company engaged in the business of designing, selling and distributing products for use by allergy sensitive persons, including, without limitation, air filters, room air cleaners, and related allergen avoidance products. Allergy Free acquired its business on or about November 3, 2000, when it acquired substantially all of the assets and business of Allergy Free, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership. The business strategy of Allergy Free has been primarily based upon the marketing and selling of products directly to the consumer by telemarketing to its database of customers, who have purchased Allergy Free’s electrostatic filters. Promotion has been supplemented with direct mail, radio, and Internet advertising. The Company’s proprietary air filters have been marketed under the Allergy Free® trade name.
On August 11, 2005, Planet completed a merger with Allergy Control Products, Inc. (“ACP”). ACP merged into a wholly owned subsidiary of Planet (“New ACP”). Effective August 11, 2005, Planet assigned all of the Allergy Free assets to its wholly owned subsidiary New ACP. The subsidiary was renamed and its ongoing name is “Allergy Control Products” (“the Subsidiary”). References to “us”, “we”, “Planet” and “Company” refer to the consolidated operations of Planet and its Subsidiary.
With the Merger, Planet has added to its stable of allergen control products, and has incorporated ACP’s core business strategy. This core strategy is to supply a complete range of high quality, branded products to physician’s patients who are allergy sufferers, as well as to previous customers. Promotion is executed through (a) distribution of catalogs to physicians’ offices, for subsequent re-distribution to patients, (b) distribution of catalogs directly to previous customers and (c) selective e-commerce marketing initiatives. Customer transactions are primarily handled through our in-bound call center and website. In addition to this core business strategy, we also sell selective products on a wholesale basis to domestic retailers as well as to international distributors.
The allergen avoidance product industry provides products and information that help people suffering from allergies or asthma to reduce the level of exposure to allergens in their environment. Market distribution channels within the industry include catalog direct mail to consumers and through physician offices, the Internet, and traditional retail. Catalog direct mail competitors offering a range of products include National

Products
Our proprietary products now include Allergy Control® branded bedding products and Allergy FreeÒ branded air filters. We also market a complete range of bedding products, carpet cleaning and laundry products, vacuums, air cleaners and air filters, sinus and breathing aids, respiratory products, dehumidifiers, mold prevention and house cleaning products, pet allergy products and certain allergy-related skin and hair care products.
Allergen Barrier Bedding: Microscopic dust mites, as well as pet dander produce potent allergens that thrive in places such as beds, upholstered furniture, and carpets. We provide a complete line of products that substantially reduce the allergy sufferers’ exposure to these allergens. Bedding products include:
Encasings: We offer three encasing product lines, each with distinct levels of allergen barrier effectiveness, comfort, durability and price. It’s Allergy ControlÒ, Pristine® Complete and Allergy Control Pristine® Relief encasings use micro-fiber fabrics. Allergy ControlÒ Economy encasings use laminated fabrics.
Blankets: We offer Snuggable® blankets, which are made from a top quality 300-weight Polartec® fleece, which has a high level of softness and warmth without extra weight. Allergy sufferers benefit from their use specifically because the blankets hold up exceptionally well through repeated hot water washing, which is the recommended process to eliminate allergens.
Comforters: As with it’s encasings, our comforters are manufactured with the most advanced Pristine® encasing fabric. They deliver complete dust mite and pet allergen protection, are luxuriously soft and breathable similar to fine cotton linens and also includes an anti-microbial treatment. The comforters are available in both light and heavier weights.
Pillows: We offer two Allergy Control® Pristine® Deluxe pillow styles — a contour neck style and a gusseted style. As in the case of our branded comforters, allergy sufferers who use these branded pillows do not require encasings, since the product itself is manufactured with highly effective and comfortable allergen barrier fabric.
Air Filters: Allergy FreeÒ air filters substantially reduce the amount of airborne contaminants, including allergen particles. We currently market three types of filters for forced heating and cooling systems along with vent filtration kits:
Permanent Filters: We offer the Allergy FreeÒ Aller-Pure® Gold Filter, a permanent electrostatic washable filter. The filter is highly efficient in removing airborne particles at the 1-10 micron level. The filter is pleated and offers 2.5 times the filtering surface area of a flat filter, while providing a low resistance that optimizes airflow. We sell all standard filter sizes and also provide custom filters to meet almost any customer need.
Disposable Filters: The Allergy FreeÒ Aller-Pure® MAX (micro allergen extractor) is rated at the highest level for residential filters. It is a pleated filter with actively electrostatic charged media. The disposable filter’s life is 2-3 months and is sold in packages of 4 filters. We offer this filter in all standard sizes.
Flexible filters: We offer the Allergy FreeÒ Aller-Pure® Flex filters for free-standing air conditioning units and other types of heating and cooling systems. The flex filter is comprised of 3 layers and sewn with a trim.

Table of Contents

In addition to Allergy Control® branded bedding products and Allergy FreeÒ branded air filters, we offer a comprehensive line of other third party products for allergy sufferers. The following includes some of the important brand offerings per category in our current product mix:
    Bedding: Comforel® mattress cushions, Wamsutta® sheets and pillowcases.
 
    Carpets and Laundry: Allersearch®, Capture®, DustMite®, Bissell® and De-mite®.
 
    Vacuums: A variety of Miele® vacuums, at differing price points.
 
    Air Cleaners: Austin Air®, Blueair®, Honeywell® and Whirlpool®..
 
    Respiratory (Nebulizers and Compressors): Omron® and Pari® brands.
Product Registrations
We do not directly manufacture any product requiring EPA or FDA registration. We sell products that are registered, where required, by their manufacturers.
Environmental Law
The Company primarily sells goods. The Company does not manufacture any products at this time. Therefore, environmental laws have not materially affected the Company.
Licensed Technology and Intellectual Property
Since January 1, 1997, the Company has licensed technology associated with the production of its Aller-PureÒ Gold Permanent Electrostatic Filter under Patent number 6,056,809, Permanent Air Filter and Method of Manufacture. The licensing agreement is for a term of 10 years, the life of the patent or for the period of time in which Planet actively sells the Aller-Pure Gold Permanent filter. The agreement provides a royalty of 1.65% based on net filter sales and is paid monthly. The sales of products under this licensing agreement have been declining at a rapid rate over the last several years due to competitive products being introduced into the market.
Research and Development
We are not actively developing new products, although the Company has historically worked with consultants, filter-testing labs, media manufactures and filter manufacturers to develop new enhanced filters, and various third parties to develop new bedding products and product line extensions. The Company did not spend any money on research and development for the years ended December 31, 2005 and December 31, 2004 respectively.
Government Requirements
Our outbound telemarketing sales practices are regulated at both the federal and state level. The Telephone Consumer Protection Act (the “TCPA”), which was enacted in 1991, authorized and directed the Federal Communications Commission (the “FCC”) to enact rules to regulate the telemarketing industry. In December 1992, the FCC enacted rules, which place restrictions on the methods and timing of telemarketing sales calls. On July 3, 2003, the FCC issued a Report and Order setting forth amended rules and regulations implementing the TCPA. The rules, with a few exceptions, became effective August 25, 2003. These rules included: (1) restrictions on calls made by automatic dialing and announcing devices; (2) limitations on the use of predictive dialers for outbound calls; (3) institution of a national “do-not-call”

Table of Contents

registry in conjunction with the Federal Trade Commission (the “FTC”); (4) guidelines on maintaining an internal “do-not-call” list and honoring “do-not-call” requests; and (5) requirements for transmitting caller identification information. The “do-not-call” restrictions took effect October 1, 2003. The caller identification requirements became effective January 29, 2004. The FCC also included rules restricting facsimile advertisements. These rules became effective January 1, 2005.
The Federal Telemarketing Consumer Fraud and Abuse Act of 1994 authorizes the FTC to issue regulations designed to prevent deceptive and abusive telemarketing acts and practices. The FTC issued its Telemarketing Sales Rule (the “TSR”), which went into effect in January 1996. The TSR applies to most direct teleservices telemarketing calls and certain operator teleservices telemarketing calls and generally prohibits a variety of deceptive, unfair or abusive practices in telemarketing sales.
The FTC amended the TSR in January 2003. The majority of the amendments became effective March 31, 2003. The changes that were adopted that could adversely affect us include, but are not limited to: (1) subjecting a portion of our calls to additional disclosure requirements from which such calls were previously exempt; (2) prohibiting the disclosure or receipt, for consideration, of unencrypted consumer account numbers for use in telemarketing; (3) additional disclosure statements relating to certain products and services; (4) additional authorization requirements for payment methods that do not have consumer protections comparable to those available under the Electronic Funds Transfer Act (“EFTA”) or the Truth in Lending Act; and (5) institution of a national “do-not-call” registry.
In addition to the federal legislation and regulations, there are numerous state statutes and regulations governing telemarketing activities, which do or may apply to us. For example, some states also place restrictions on the methods and timing of telemarketing calls and require that certain mandatory disclosures be made during the course of a telemarketing call. Some states also require that telemarketers register in the state before conducting telemarketing business in the state (see Risk Factors).
Customers of Planet
Our typical customer is an individual allergy sufferer. In addition, a limited number of domestic retailers purchase products for resale to the public. A limited number of international distributors also purchase certain products for resale to various parties located within their respective countries and/or market territories.
Physician offices are an important intermediary between the Company and its customers. The Company receives customer orders from patients of more than 4,000 identified physicians. The Company has no distribution agreements with its referring physicians. The Company is not dependent on any one customer.
Suppliers of Planet
We acquire our raw materials for contract manufactured finished products from a variety of manufacturers. The primary raw material suppliers include: Precision Fabrics Group (Micro-Woven Allergen Barrier Fabric) and Shawmut Mills (Laminated Allergen Barrier Fabric).
Sales and Marketing
We employ staff to perform and manage sales and marketing functions. Outside resources are hired on an as-needed basis to augment the internal effort.
Competition
The Company’s competitors include National Allergy Supply, Mission Allergy, Allergy Buyers Club, Asthma and Allergies Technology, and Allergy Solutions.

Employees
As of December 31, 2005, the Company had 36 full-time and 9 part-time employees, all of whom are located at our Connecticut facility.
Properties
By December of 2005, our office facility, consisting of approximately 5,400 square feet of leased office space in San Diego, California, subject to a sublease, was closed. All operations were moved to the Subsidiary’s facility during the fourth quarter of 2005. All costs associated with the move have been reflected in operations for 2005.
We now maintain executive offices and warehouse space located in approximately 13,317 square feet of leased space at 96 Danbury Road, Ridgefield, CT 06877, subject to a lease, which terminates September 30, 2007, at a monthly rental amount of $14,288. We lease additional warehouse space in Connecticut as needed from time to time .
Risk Factors
We have experienced losses, we expect future losses and we may not become profitable. For the years ended December 31, 2005, 2004 and 2003, we had net losses of $1,508,195, $773,558 and $574,135, respectively. As of December 31, 2005, we had an accumulated deficit of approximately $5,200,000.
Since we have historically incurred net losses, we expect this trend will continue until some indefinite date in the future. We may not be able to sustain or increase profitability on a quarterly or annual basis.
We will require additional capital, which may not be available. Our capital requirements will depend on many factors, including:
    the cost of information technology upgrades and enhancements;
 
    The cost of developing existing and new markets for our products; and
 
    regulatory and associated costs of being a public entity.
At year end 2005, current liabilities exceeded current assets by $303,717. On April 18, 2006, the Board approved borrowing $250,000 from two of our controlling shareholders.
With the borrowings, we anticipate that our existing resources combined with revenues will enable us to maintain our current and planned operations through December 31, 2006. However, changes in our plans or other events affecting our operating expenses, such as acquisition opportunities, may cause us to expend our existing resources sooner than expected.
We may seek additional funding through private placements of stock or strategic relationships. However, the uncertainty as to our future profitability may make it difficult for us to secure additional financing on acceptable terms, if we are able to secure additional financing at all. Insufficient funds may require us to delay, scale back or eliminate some or all of our activities. Our auditors have qualified their report on our financial statements citing that certain conditions raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.
The Company’s management with the participation of the Company’s chief executive officer and chief financial officer have evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures. Based on such evaluation, the Company’s chief executive officer and chief financial officer have concluded

7


Table of Contents

that, as of the end of such period, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were not effective due to a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting.
Amendments to the Telemarketing Sales Rule (the “TSR”). Telemarketing sales rules have had and may continue to have a material impact on both Planet’s revenue and profitability. The addition of a national “do-not-call” list to the growing number of states that already have “do-not-call” lists has reduced the number of households that we may call. Over 50% of the our historical customers have placed their names on the national “do-not-call” list.
In addition to the federal legislation and regulations, there are numerous state statutes and regulations governing telemarketing activities, which do or may apply to our business. For example, some states also place restrictions on the methods and timing of telemarketing calls and require that certain mandatory disclosures be made during the course of a telemarketing call. Some states also require that telemarketers register in the state before conducting telemarketing business in the state.
We are training our telemarketing representatives to handle calls in an approved manner and believe we comply in all material respects with all federal and state telemarketing regulations. There can be no assurance, however, that the Company will not be subject to regulatory challenge and or civil liability for violations of federal or state law.
We are subject to penny stock regulations. Our common stock is not listed or qualified for listing on NASDAQ or any national securities exchange but is only sporadically traded in the over-the-counter market in the so-called OTC Bulletin Board. As a result, an investor will find it difficult to dispose of, and to obtain accurate quotations as to the value of, our common stock.
Our common stock is classified as a penny stock by the Securities and Exchange Commission. The classification severely and adversely affects the market liquidity for our common stock. The Commission has adopted Rule 15g-9, which establishes the definition of a “penny stock” for the purposes relevant to us, as any equity security that has a market price of less than $5.00 per share or with an exercise price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions. For any transaction involving a penny stock, unless exempt, the rules require: (i) that a broker or dealer approve a person’s account for transactions in penny stocks; and (ii) the broker or dealer receive from the investor a written agreement to the transaction, setting forth the identity and quantity of the penny stock to be purchased. In order to approve a person’s account for transactions in penny stocks, the broker or dealer must (i) obtain financial information and investment experience objectives of the person; and (ii) make a reasonable determination that the transactions in penny stocks are suitable for that person and the person has sufficient knowledge and experience in financial matters to be capable of evaluating the risks of transactions in penny stocks. The broker or dealer must also deliver, prior to any transaction in a penny stock, a disclosure schedule prepared by the Commission relating to the penny stock market, which, in highlight form, sets forth (i) the basis on which the broker or dealer made the suitability determination and (ii) that the broker or dealer received a signed, written agreement from the investor prior to the transaction. Disclosure also has to be made about the risks of investing in penny stocks in public offerings and secondary trading and about the commissions payable to the broker-dealer and registered representative, current quotations for the securities and the rights and remedies available to an investor in case of fraud in penny stock transaction. Finally, monthly statements have to be sent disclosing recent price information for the penny stock held in the account and information on the limited market in penny stocks.
Any inability to adequately retain or protect our employees, customer relationships and proprietary brands’ competitive positioning could harm our ability to compete. Our future success and ability to compete depends in part upon our employees, customer relationships, proprietary brands and trademarks, which we attempt to protect with a combination of trademark and trade secret claims. These legal protections afford only limited protection. Further, despite our efforts, we may be unable to prevent third parties from soliciting our employees or customers or infringing upon or misappropriating our intellectual property. Our employees, customer relationships and intellectual property may not be adequate to provide

8


Table of Contents

us with a competitive advantage or to prevent competitors from entering the markets for our product and services. Additionally, our competitors could independently develop non-infringing technologies that are competitive with, and equivalent or superior to, our products. We will monitor infringement and/or misappropriation of our proprietary rights. However, even if we do detect infringement or misappropriation of our proprietary rights, litigation to enforce these rights could cause us to divert financial and other resources away from our business operations.
The departure of certain key personnel could harm the financial condition of the Company. Several of our employees are intimately involved in our business and have day-to-day relationships with critical customers. We are not able to afford additional staff to supplement these key personnel. Competition for highly skilled business, product development, marketing and other personnel is intense, and there can be no assurance that we will be successful in recruiting new personnel or in retaining our existing personnel. A failure on our part to retain the services of these key personnel could have a material adverse effect on our operating results and financial condition. We do not maintain key man life insurance on any of our employees.
We face various competitors. We have competitors with comparable characteristics and capabilities that compete for the same group of customers. Our competitors are competent and experienced and are continuously working to take market share away from us. Our competitors may have greater financial, technical, marketing and other resources than we do. Our ability to compete effectively may be adversely affected by the ability of these competitors to devote greater resources to the sales and marketing of their products and services than are available to us.
There are risks associated with our planned growth. We plan to grow our revenues and profits by adding to our existing customer base through internal growth and by the acquisition of other companies.
Management believes that Planet can grow through the acquisitions of other allergy related companies as part of a “roll-up” strategy. The acquisition of other companies is uncertain and contains a variety of business risks, including: cultural differences, the retention of key personnel, competition, protection of intellectual property, profitability, industry changes and others.
Although we do not have an agreement to acquire any specific company at this time, we intend to attempt to expand our operations through the acquisition of other companies. Acquisitions and attempted acquisitions may place a strain on our limited personnel, financial and other resources. Our ability to manage this growth, should it occur, will require expansion of our capabilities and personnel. We may not be able to find qualified personnel to fill additional positions or be able to successfully manage a larger organization.
We have very limited assets upon which to rely for adjusting to business variations and for growing new businesses. While we are likely to look for new funding to assist in the acquisition of other profitable businesses, it is uncertain whether such funds will be available. There can be no assurance that we will be successful in raising a sufficient amount of additional capital, or if we are successful, that we will be able to raise capital on reasonable terms. If we do raise additional capital, our existing shareholders may incur substantial and immediate dilution.
Future sales of our common stock by existing shareholders under Rule 144 could decrease the trading price of our common stock. As of December 31, 2005, a total of approximately 3,874,897 shares of outstanding common stock were “restricted securities” and could be sold in the public markets only in compliance with rule 144 adopted under the Securities Act of 1933 or other applicable exemptions from registration. Rule 144 provides that a person holding restricted securities for a period of one year may thereafter sell, in brokerage transactions, an amount not exceeding in any three-month period the greater of either (i) 1% of the issuer’s outstanding common stock or (ii) the average weekly trading volume in the securities during a period of four calendar weeks immediately preceding the sale. Persons who are not affiliated with the issuer and who have held their restricted securities for at least two years are not subject

Table of Contents

to the volume limitation. Possible or actual sales of our common stock by present shareholders under Rule 144 could have a depressive effect on the price of our common stock. We have filed a registration statement to register many of these shares, which may be sold without the above limitations when and if the registration statement becomes effective. Such sales could also have a depressive effect on the price of our common stock.
Our directors and executive officers beneficially own approximately 45.2% of our stock, including stock options and warrants exercisable within 60 days of January 1, 2006; their interests could conflict with yours; significant sales of stock held by them could have a negative effect on our stock price; shareholders may be unable to exercise control. As a result, our executive officers, directors and affiliate persons will have significant ability to:
    elect or defeat the election of our directors;
 
    amend or prevent amendment of our articles of incorporation or bylaws;
 
    effect or prevent a merger, sale of assets or other corporate transaction; and
 
    control the outcome of any other matter submitted to the shareholders for vote.
As a result of their ownership and positions, our directors and executive officers collectively, are able to significantly influence all matters requiring shareholder approval, including the election of directors and approval of significant corporate transactions. In addition, sales of significant amounts of shares held by our directors and executive officers, or the prospect of these sales, could adversely affect the market price of our common stock. Management’s stock ownership may discourage a potential acquirer from making a tender offer or otherwise attempting to obtain control of us, which in turn could reduce our stock price or prevent our shareholders from realizing a premium over our stock price.
Absence of Dividends. We have not paid any cash dividends on our Common Stock since our inception and do not anticipate paying cash dividends in the foreseeable future.
ITEM 2. DESCRIPTION OF PROPERTY
By December of 2005, the Planet office facility, which had been located in approximately 5,400 square feet of leased office space in San Diego, California, subject to a sublease, was closed. All operations were moved to the Subsidiary’s facility during the fourth quarter of 2005. All costs associated with the move have been reflected in the operations of 2005.
The Company maintains executive offices and warehouse space located in approximately 13,317 square feet of leased space at 96 Danbury Road, Ridgefield, CT 06877, subject to a lease, which terminates September 30, 2007, at a monthly rental amount of $14,288. The Company leases additional warehouse space in Connecticut as needed from time to time .

The market price of shares of common stock, like that of the common stock of many other emerging growth companies, has been and is likely to continue to be highly volatile.
The Company has never declared or paid a cash dividend. The Company has not paid and does not intend to pay any Common Stock dividends to Common Stock shareholders in the foreseeable future and intends to retain any future earnings to fund the Company’s operations. Any payment of dividends in the future will depend upon the Company’s earnings, capital requirements, financial condition and such other factors as the Board of Directors may deem relevant.

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and related notes. Planet evaluates its estimates and judgments on an on-going basis. Planet bases its estimates on historical experience and on assumptions that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. Planet’s experience and assumptions form the basis for its judgments about the carrying value of its assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may vary from what Planet anticipates and different assumptions or estimates about the future could change Planet’s reported results. Planet believes the following accounting policies are the most critical to Planet, in that they are important to the portrayal of its financial statements and they require Planet’s most difficult, subjective or complex judgments in the preparation of its financial statements:

Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenues in accordance with SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 101, “Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements” (“SAB No. 101”) as amended by SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 104, “Revenue Recognition, revised and updated” (“SAB No. 104”), which stipulates that revenue generally is realized or realizable and earned, once persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred or services have been rendered, the fee is fixed or determinable and collectibility is reasonably assured. The Company recognizes revenue from product sales upon shipment of goods, with a provision for estimated returns recorded at that time. In addition, a provision for potential warranty claims is provided for at the time of sale, based upon warranty terms and the Company’s prior experience.
Allowances for Doubtful Accounts
Allowances for doubtful accounts receivable are maintained based on historical payment patterns, aging of accounts receivable, and actual write-off history.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
In assessing the recoverability of its long-lived assets, Planet must make assumptions regarding estimated future cash flows and other factors to determine the fair value of the respective assets. If these estimates or their related assumptions change in the future, Planet may be required to record impairment charges for these assets.

The following tables set forth certain items in Planet’s Statements of Operations for the periods indicated.

The addition of the Subsidiary’s financial results for a portion of the twelve months ended December 31, 2005 resulted in material year over year increases in sales, cost of sales and operating expenses. These increases are not necessarily indicative of future year over year comparisons.
We expect that future gross margins could be somewhat lower than that experienced in the twelve months ended December 31, 2005, as a result of the Subsidiary’s lower margin financial results being included for only a portion of the reporting period.

The net loss for the twelve months ended December 31, 2005, was $1,508,195, compared to a net loss of $773,558 for the twelve month period ended December 31, 2004. The Company’s net sales increased by $2,743,116 from $1,180,382 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2004, to $3,923,498 for the same period in 2005. The net loss for the 2005 includes costs related to the integration of the entities after the merger as well as amortization of intangibles of $103,096.
The year over year increase in net sales is due to the addition of sales from the Subsidiary from August 12, 2005 through December 31, 2005. This factor also accounts for the year over year decrease in net loss as a percentage of net sales, as the addition of the Subsidiary’s larger and broader base of sales improves Planet’s relative cost efficiency.
Overall gross margin, as a percentage of sales, decreased from 65.5% for the twelve months ended December 31, 2004 to 43.8% for the same period in 2005. This decrease in gross margin is due to the inclusion of the Subsidiary’s sales, which are broadly based and emphasize bedding products, that have a higher cost of sales than Planet’s sales, and are more narrowly focused on higher margin filter product sales.
For the year ended December 31, 2005, total operating expenses increased by $1,784,224 over the operating expenses for the same period in 2004. This increase largely reflects the higher level of sales, as well as general and administrative expenses associated with the larger Subsidiary operation.
Other expenses decreased from $247,317 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2004, to $143,578 for the same period in 2005. The $103,739 decrease in other expenses includes a $185,177 reduction of interest expense related to former shareholder debt that was converted to stock when the Company was purchased in November 2004. This reduction was offset by increases in interest expense related to the amortization of the derivative liability of $81,606.

Planet’s net sales decreased 47.7% from $2,258,213 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2003, to $1,180,382 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2004. This decrease was due to several factors. First, sales in 2003 were impacted positively both from the effects of radio advertising in late 2002 and early 2003 and from having two active sales locations, with two active telemarketing staffs. For most of 2004, the Company’s San Diego location was the only telemarketing group in operation. Sales in 2004 were negatively impacted by the Do Not Call (“DNC”) legislation which went into effect during the fourth quarter of 2003. Due to DNC requirements, the company was unable to telemarket its products to a segment of its existing customers.

Cost of Sales decreased 44.2% from $730,801 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2003, to $407,811 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2004, due mainly to the associated decrease in sales revenue (units sold) and a small shift in product mix and higher distribution costs. Overall gross profit, as a percentage of sales, totaled 65.5% for the twelve months ended December 31, 2004, and 67.6% for the twelve months ended December 31, 2003. This change is due to a shift in product mix in the first quarter of 2004 and higher distribution and other costs resulting from the relocation to San Diego. This product mix shift was primarily due to an emphasis in the first quarter of 2004 on the sale of room air cleaners and up-selling across the Company’s product line. The Company expects its profit margin to be impacted in the future by higher distribution costs as compared to 2004 and 2003.
Operating expenses decreased by 30.7% from $1,874,398 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2003, to $1,298,812 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2004. Of the $575,586 decrease, approximately $239,000 was attributable to discontinuing the national radio advertising campaign and the remainder of the decrease was related to decreased headcount and facility expenses with only one location active for most of 2004.
The Other Income(Expense) category includes interest expense of $197,673 and other expenses of $49,644 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2004. While interest expense was up slightly ($8,211) over the prior year, other expenses increased $10,806, or 21.4% over the twelve months ended December 31, 2003. This difference was due mainly to moving costs associated with closing and moving the Company’s Houston operations to San Diego during the first quarter of 2004.

The proforma net loss for the twelve months ended December 31, 2005, was $2,311,356, compared to $1,091,491 for the twelve month period ended December 31, 2004. The Company’s net sales decreased by $223,349 from $8,895,035 to $8,671,686 due to the decrease in sales of Allergy Free related products, which decreased from $1,180,382 in 2004 to approximately $600,000 in 2005. This decrease was offset by an increase in the sales of ACP products. The proforma net loss for the 2005 includes costs related to the integration of the entities after the merger as well as amortization of intangibles of $103,096.
Overall proforma gross margin, as a percentage of sales, decreased from 43.91% for the twelve months ended December 31, 2004 to 41.27% for the same period in 2005. This decrease in gross margin is due to

Table of Contents

large increase in international sales to distributors for ACP which have lower margins than domestic sales. Also, the Allergy Free sales which have a higher gross margin decreased significantly from 2004 to 2005.
Between December 31, 2005 and December 31, 2004, total operating expenses increased $945,220, totaling $5,683,907 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2005, and $4,738,687 for the same period in 2004. This increase includes non-recurring expenses for ACP of $500,000 for termination benefits for a former officer as well as approximately $100,000 in legal and accounting fees related to the merger and the amortization of intangibles of $103, 096. Additionally, public reporting expenses for the Company increased over $150,000 as they were included for two months only in 2004 due to the reverse acquisition.
Proforma other expenses decreased from $258,233 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2004, to $206,372 for the same period in 2005. The $51,861 decrease in other expenses includes a $185,177 reduction of interest expense related to former shareholder debt that was converted to stock when the Company was purchased in November 2004. This reduction was offset by increases related to the amortization of the derivative liability of $81,606 and the loss in the disposal of assets by ACP of $110,218.

Liquidity And Capital Resources
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. This basis of accounting contemplates the recovery of the Company’s assets and the satisfaction of its liabilities in the normal course of business. Successful transition to profitable operations is dependent upon obtaining a level of sales adequate to support the Company’s cost structure. The Company has suffered recurring losses resulting in an accumulated deficit of $5,210,891 as of December 31, 2005. Management intends to continue to finance operations partially through its potential ability to generate cash flows from debt and equity offerings. On April 18, 2006, the Company received a financing commitment of $250,000 from two controlling shareholders. However, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to obtain additional financing or internally generate cash flows, which may impact the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Our independent registered public accounting firm has included an explanatory paragraph in their opinion dated April 11, 2006, that there is substantial doubt about Planet’s ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may result from the potential inability of the Company to continue as a going concern.
Cash and cash equivalents totaled $436,844 at December 31, 2005. During the period, 1,318,007 shares representing $3,295,000 were sold to investors through a private placement offering. The Company used cash totaling $1,154,015, for its operations during the twelve-month period, the Company also repaid $185,000 of advances from a related party, paid principal payments totaling $137,415 on notes payable and $1,730,855 was used in the acquisition of the Subsidiary.
Inventory levels increased $558,320 from $19,012 at December 31, 2004 to $577,332 at December 31, 2005, reflecting inventory acquired in the Merger. Accounts payable and accrued expenses increased by $924,891, from $578,283 at December 31, 2004 to $1,503,174 at December 31, 2005, reflecting liabilities assumed from the Merger. The higher levels of inventory, accounts payable and accrued expenses largely reflect the addition of the Subsidiary sales, which require higher levels of inventory in order to support the increased level of sales.
On August 11, 2005, Planet completed a merger with Allergy Control Products, Inc. (“ACP”). ACP merged into a wholly owned subsidiary of Planet (“New ACP”). Effective August 11, 2005, Planet

assigned all of the Allergy Free assets to its wholly owned subsidiary New ACP. The subsidiary was renamed and its ongoing name is “Allergy Control Products” (“the Subsidiary”). References to “us”, “we”, “Planet” and “Company” refer to the consolidated operations of Planet and its Subsidiary.
Investors are encouraged to review our report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on August 12, 2005 and our Registration Statement on Form SB-2 filed on October 12, 2005, which discuss more thoroughly the terms of the merger and which is available through EDGAR at www.sec.gov, and the Company’s Proxy Statement which also is available through EDGAR.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123R, “Share-Based Payment” (“SFAS 123R”), a revision of SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation,” requiring that the compensation cost relating to share-based payment transactions, including grants of employee stock options, be measured and recognized in the financial statements using the fair value of the compensation awards. The provisions of SFAS 123R are effective for us for the first interim or annual reporting period that begins after December 15, 2005; therefore, the Company has adopted the new requirements for the first quarter of fiscal 2006 under the modified-prospective transition method. Adoption of the expensing requirements will reduce the Company’s reported earnings.
In November 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 151, “Inventory Costs, an amendment of ARB No. 43, Chapter 4” (“SFAS 151”). SFAS 151 clarifies that abnormal inventory costs such as costs of idle facilities, excess freight and handling costs, and wasted materials (spoilage) are required to be recognized as current period charges. The provisions of SFAS 151 are effective for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2005. The adoption of SFAS 151 is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

ITEM 8. CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURES
None.
ITEM 8A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
The Company’s management with the participation of the Company’s chief executive officer and chief financial officer have evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a — 15(e) and 15d — 15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act) as of the end of the annual period covered by this report. Based on such evaluation, the Company’s chief executive officer and chief financial officer have concluded that, as of the end of such period, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were not effective due to material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting described below.
    Insufficient accounting staff with the appropriate level of knowledge and a lack of sufficient historical information regarding sales of ACP products, compounded by the integration of operations from the California location to Connecticut after the Merger with ACP.
 
    Insufficient number of staff and lack of adequate data processing support led to the Company’s not being able to file its Form 10-KSB on a timely basis.

Table of Contents

In the process of conducting their audit for the year ended December 31, 2005, J.H. Cohn LLP, our independent registered public accounting firm (“JHC”), identified that:
    The Company’s warranty reserve calculation for sales from Subsidiary sales and the calculation of deferred taxes was insufficient and
 
    The Company did not have adequate resources to meet the reporting requirements of the SEC on a timely basis.
These material weaknesses in the processes and procedures with our accounting and financial reporting function and contributed to post-closing adjustments and delays in the completion and filing of our 2005 Form 10-KSB.
As part of the communications by JHC with our audit committee with respect to JHC’s audit procedures for the year ended December 31, 2005, JHC informed the audit committee that these deficiencies: constituted a material weakness under standards established by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board, or PCAOB.
The Company has assigned a high priority to the short-term and long-term improvement of our internal control over financial reporting. Actions to address the material weaknesses described above that we will undertake, or have undertaken, include the following, among others:
    Hiring of additional accounting staff to facilitate the reporting within the time periods specified by the SEC.
 
    Implementing new accounting reporting software in the short-term to expedite the reporting function and an upgrade to the overall accounting software system in the long-term so that analysis and evaluation of information can be better processed within the time periods required by the SEC.
 
    We have completed the integration of the operations from California to Connecticut and all accounting and reporting is centralized within the Connecticut location.
 
    We have implemented a strict warranty return policy which is designed to track and monitor all warranty returns and provide the reporting information required for the warranty reserve on a timely basis.
Except as described above, there has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Description of Employee Benefit Plans:
2000 Stock Incentive Plan
In 2000, the Company established a stock option plan, the 2000 Stock Option Plan, which provided for 500,000 shares of common stock for issuance. At the time of the merger with Allergy Free in 2004, the Plan was amended increase the number of shares available to 5,000,000 shares, which were converted to 100,000 shares after the 50:1 stock split. During 2005, the Plan was again amended to increase the number of shares available under the Plan to 350,000. The 2000 Option Plan provides for the discretionary grant of options, stock appreciation rights (“SARs”), and stock bonuses to employees and directors of and consultants to the Company. Options granted under the 2000 Plan may be either “incentive stock options,” as defined in Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), or non-statutory stock options.
At December 31, 2005, options granted by the Board Of Directors exceeded Plan authorized shares by 154,113 shares in excess of the Plan limit were granted by the Board of Directors which are subject to Shareholder approval during the next annual Shareholders meeting.
The purpose of the 2000 Stock Option Plan is to attract and retain qualified personnel, to provide additional incentives to employees, officers, directors and consultants of the Company and to promote the success of the Company’s business. Under the Plan, Planet may grant or issue incentive stock options and non-statutory stock options to eligible participants, provided that incentive stock options may only be granted to employees of Planet. The 2000 Stock Option Plan also allows shares of common stock to be issued under a Stock Bonus Program through direct and immediate issuances. Similar to stock options granted under the Plan, stock bonus awards may be subjected to a vesting schedule determined by the Board of Directors. Option grants under the Plan are discretionary. Options granted are subject to vesting as determined by the Board, provided that the option vests as to at least 20% of the shares subject to the option per year. The maximum term of a stock option is ten years, but if the optionee at the time of grant has voting power over more than 10% of the Company’s outstanding capital stock, the maximum term is five years. If an optionee terminates his or her service to Planet, such optionee may exercise only those option shares vested as of the date of termination, and must affect such exercise within the period of time after termination set forth in the optionee’s option. The exercise price of incentive stock options granted must be at least equal to the fair market value of the Common Stock of the Company on the date of grant. The exercise price of options granted to an optionee who owns stock possessing more than 10% of the voting power of Planet’s outstanding capital stock must equal at least 110% of the fair market value of the common stock on the date of grant. Payment of the exercise price may be made in cash, by delivery of other shares of the Company’s common stock or by any other form of legal consideration that may be acceptable to the Board.
401(k) Plan
The Company provides a defined contribution 401(k) savings plan (the “401(k) Plan”) in which all full-time employees of the Company are eligible to participate. Eligible employees are permitted to contribute pre-tax salary to the 401(k) Plan subject to IRS limitations. Company contributions to the 401(k) Plan are at the discretion of the Board of Directors. There have been no Company contributions to the 401(k) Plan in 2005 or 2004.
Employment Agreements and Change in Control Arrangements
The Company has entered into an employment agreement with Scott L. Glenn as President/CEO and Chairman of the Board of the Company for a three-year period, which expires on November 29, 2007. The Company has agreed to pay Mr. Glenn a salary of $100 per month (plus healthcare and other benefits) until

it is determined by the Board that the Company can afford to pay compensation comparable to CEOs of other similar companies. In exchange for foregoing a salary, the Company granted to Mr. Glenn stock options exercisable at the then fair market value at such time as may be required to main the aggregate number of stock options granted to Mr. Glenn an amount not less than five (5%) percent of the issued and outstanding stock of the Company (on a fully diluted basis) during his three year term of employment.
During 2005, the Company entered into an employment agreement with the Subsidiary’s President and Chief Executive Officer and director for a four-year period, which expires in 2009. The contract provides for an annual salary of $200,000 (plus healthcare and other benefits) as well as a discretionary bonus for superior performance for exceeding sales, gross profits and profits plans for the year. The Company also granted stock options to acquire 120,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at $2.70 per share with 25% of the options vesting on August 10, 2006, and the balance at the rate of 1/36 th of the balance per month, subject to any acceleration as provided under the Company’s 2000 Stock Option Plan.
In January 2005, the Company agreed to employ Bret Megargel as Vice President of Marketing and Business Development, effective February 1, 2005, at an annualized salary of $96,000. In March 2005, Mr. Megargel’s annual salary was increased to $192,000 and 30,000 shares of stock options at $3.00 with accelerated vesting if certain marketing and development objectives were met by year end. These options became fully vested in December 2005. In December 2005, Mr. Megargel’s compensation was reduced to $100 per month and he was issued 18,000 additional stock options to purchase the Company’s stock at $2.70 per shares under standard vesting as provided by the Company’s 2000 Stock Option Plan.
The Company has entered into a Consulting Agreement with Leslie White to which she retains the 30,000 options granted to her as Chief Financial Officer plus an hourly rate to be determined.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Shareholders and Board of Directors
Planet Technologies, Inc.
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Planet Technologies, Inc. and Subsidiary as of December 31, 2005, and the related consolidated statements of operations, shareholders’ equity (deficiency) and cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004. These consolidated 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. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. An audit also includes 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 consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Planet Technologies, Inc. as of December 31, 2005, and their results of operations and cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2, the Company has experienced recurring net losses resulting in an accumulated deficit of $5,210,891 as of December 31, 2005. In addition, the Company has a working capital deficiency of $303,717 as of December 31, 2005. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans regarding these matters are also described in Note 2. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

PLANET TECHNOLOGIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Note 1 — The Company:
Planet Technologies, Inc. (“Planet” or the “Company”) formerly known as Planet Polymer Technologies, Inc. (“Planet Polymer”) was incorporated in August, 1991, in the State of California, and, since August 12, 2005, has been engaged in the business of designing, manufacturing, selling and distributing common products for use by allergy sensitive persons, including, without limitation, air filters, bedding, room air cleaners, and related allergen avoidance products. The business strategy is primarily based upon promotion of products directly to the consumer through direct mail and telemarketing to the Company’s database of customers who have purchased the Allergy Free Electrostatic Filter.
On November 30, 2004, Planet acquired the business of Allergy Free, LLC (“Allergy”) for approximately 1.65 million shares of Planet stock (after giving effect to a 50:1 reverse stock split), a convertible note of $274,300 bearing interest at 5.5% per annum and due and payable within three years, and assumption of debt. As a result, Allergy owned approximately 92.7% of the voting shares of Planet. Since the stockholders of Allergy received the majority of the voting shares of Planet, the former managing member of Allergy continued on as the president of the Company, and representatives of Allergy hold three of the five seats on the Company’s Board of Directors, the merger was accounted for as a recapitalization of Allergy, whereby Allergy was the accounting acquirer (legal acquiree) and Planet was the accounting acquiree (legal acquirer). Since, at the closing, Planet was a non-operating shell corporation no longer meeting the definition of a business as defined in EITF Consensus 98-3, “Determining Whether a Nonmonetary Transaction Involves Receipt of Productive Assets or of a Business”, the transaction was equivalent to Allergy issuing stock for the net liabilities of Planet, accompanied by a recapitalization. The accounting was identical to that resulting from a reverse acquisition, except that there were no adjustments to the historic carrying values of the assets and liabilities. Accordingly, the 2004 accompanying statements of operations and cash flows are the historical financial statements of Allergy Free.
Prior to acquiring Allergy, Planet Polymer was an advanced materials company that developed and licensed unique polymer materials. All operations related to Planet Polymer have been discontinued.
On August 11, 2005, Planet acquired Allergy Control Products, Inc. (“ACP”). ACP merged into a wholly-owned subsidiary of Planet (“New ACP”). The subsidiary will continue to use the name “Allergy Control Products”. Effective August 11, 2005, Planet assigned all of the Allergy assets to its wholly-owned subsidiary, New ACP. Pursuant to the terms of the merger transaction, the shareholder of ACP was issued 600,000 shares of Planet common stock. In addition, ACP’s debt to its shareholder in the amount of $1,500,000 was paid in full by Planet (see Note 15 herein).
Note 2 — Summary of significant accounting policies:
Basis of presentation:
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. This basis of accounting contemplates the recovery of the Company’s assets and the satisfaction of its liabilities in the normal course of business. Successful transition to profitable operations is dependent upon obtaining a level of sales adequate to support the Company’s cost structure. The Company has suffered recurring losses resulting in an accumulated deficit of $5,210,891 and a working capital deficiency of $303,717 as of December 31, 2005. Management intends to continue to finance the operations of the Company through cash flow from operations and by raising additional capital from the sale of its stock. However, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to obtain such financing or internally generate cash flows from operations, which may impact the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying consolidated balance sheet does not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may result from the potential inability of the Company to continue as a going concern.

Note 2 — Summary of significant accounting policies (continued):
Principles of Consolidation:
The consolidated financial statements include Planet Technologies, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiary, Allergy Control Products, Inc. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.
Use of estimates:
The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. The accounting estimates that require management’s most difficult and subjective judgments include provisions for bad debts, warranty reserve, depreciable/amortizable lives, impairment of long-lived assets, accounting for goodwill and intangible assets, the fair value of the Company’s common stock, the fair value of options issued for services, the allocation of proceeds from the bridge loans to equity instruments and other reserves. Because of the uncertainly in such estimates, actual results may differ from these estimates.
Reclassification:
Certain reclassifications have been made in the 2004 consolidated financial statements to conform with the 2005 presentation.
Cash and cash equivalents and concentration of credit risk:
The Company maintains its cash in bank deposit accounts at various financial institutions. Highly-liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less when purchased are considered to be cash equivalents. As of December 31, 2005, the Company had a cash balance that exceeded the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation limitation for coverage of $100,000 by approximately $296,000.
Inventory:
Inventory consists of finished products which are purchased from established vendors, and raw material which is maintained for manufacturing of its mattress encasings. Inventory is stated at the lower of cost, determined by the First-In, First-Out method, or market. Inventory is reduced by provisions for excess and slow moving items commensurate with known or estimated exposures.
Property and equipment:
Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation is provided using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets ranging from two to ten years. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of their useful lives or the term of the related lease.

Note 2 — Summary of significant accounting policies (continued):
Goodwill and Other Intangibles Assets:
Goodwill represents the excess of cost over fair value of net assets acquired through acquisition. In accordance with SFAS No. 141, “Business Combination”, (“SFAS 141”), all business combinations must be accounted for under the purchase method of accounting. SFAS No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangibles Assets”, eliminates the amortization of goodwill and certain other intangible assets and requires an evaluation of impairment by applying a fair-value based test. Application of the goodwill impairment test requires significant judgments including estimation of future cash flows, which is dependent on internal forecasts, estimation of the long-term rate of growth for the Company, the useful life over which cash flows will occur, and determination of the Company’s cost of capital. Changes in these estimates and assumptions could materially affect the determination of fair value and/or conclusions on goodwill impairment. There were no changes in the carrying amount of goodwill at December 31, 2005.
Other intangible assets include a customer list and website costs which are amortized, on a straight-line basis, over 6 and 3 years, respectively. The Company follows the impairment provisions and disclosure requires of SFAS No. 142. Accordingly, intangibles are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. There were no changes in the carrying amount of the intangibles at December 31, 2005.
Stock-based compensation:
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 (“SFAS 123”), “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation”, provides for the use of a fair value-based method of accounting for stock-based compensation. However, SFAS 123 allows an entity to continue to measure compensation cost for stock options granted to employees using the intrinsic value method of accounting prescribed by Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25 (“APB 25”), “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees”, which only requires charges to compensation expense for the excess, if any, of the fair value of the underlying stock at the date a stock option is granted (or at an appropriate subsequent measurement date) over the amount the employee must pay to acquire the stock. The Company has elected to account for employee stock options using the intrinsic value method under APB 25. By making that election, it is required by SFAS 123 and SFAS No. 148, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation — Transition and Disclosure” to provide pro forma disclosures of net loss as if a fair value-based method of accounting had been applied.
During 2005 and 2004, the Company granted options to its employees and Board of Directors at the fair value of the common stock. Options expire 10 years from the date of grant. Management expects options to be held to expiration. The weighted-average fair value of these options using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model was as follows:
                 
    2005     2004  
Volatility
    176-221 %     223-227 %
Dividend yield
           
Risk free interest rate
    4.02-4.40 %     4.27 %
Vesting period
  4 years   4 years
Expected life
  10 years   10 years
Had compensation cost for the Company’s stock-based compensation plans been determined based on the fair value method at the grant dates for awards under the Company’s plans, the Company’s net loss and net loss per share for 2005 and 2004 would have been increased to the pro forma amounts indicated below.

In accordance with the provisions of SFAS 123, all other issuances of common stock, warrants, stock options or other equity instruments to non-employees as the consideration for goods or services received by the Company are accounted for based on the fair value of the equity instruments issued (unless the fair value of the consideration received can be more reliably measured). Generally, the fair value of any options, warrants or similar equity investments will be estimated based on the Black-Scholes option-pricing model.
During 2005, the Board of Directors granted 154,113 options in excess of the shareholder authorized 2000 Stock Option Plan limit of 350,000 shares. As such, these options are subject to shareholder approval at the next shareholders’ meeting and have been excluded from the calculation above. Had these options been approved on December 31, 2005 the fair value of these additional options would have been $50,226, resulting in an additional $.02 loss per share, basic and diluted.
At December 31, 2005, compensation expense related to the unvested portion of stock options outstanding totaled $1,050,942, which will be recorded in future periods.
Net loss per share:
Net loss per share is computed using the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding and is presented for basic and diluted loss per share. Basic loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted loss per share is computed by dividing net by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period increased to include, if dilutive, the number of additional common shares what would have been outstanding if the potential common shares had been issued.
The Company has excluded all convertible preferred stock and outstanding stock options and warrants from the calculation of diluted loss per share because all such securities are considered anti-dilutive. Accordingly, diluted loss per share equals basic loss per share. The total number of potential common shares excluded from the calculation of diluted loss per share for the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004 was 343,500 and 468,494, respectively.
Advertising:
The Company expenses the cost of advertising and promotions as incurred. Advertising costs charged to operations were $26,232 and $57,139 in 2005 and 2004, respectively.

Note 2 — Summary of significant accounting policies (concluded):
Revenue recognition:
The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 101, “Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements” (“SAB No. 101”) as amended by SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 104, “Revenue Recognition”, revised and updated (“SAB No. 104”), which stipulates that revenue generally is realized or realizable and earned, once persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred or services have been rendered, the fee is fixed or determinable and collectibility is reasonably assured. The Company recognizes revenue from product sales upon shipment of goods, with a provision for estimated returns recorded at that time. In addition, a provision for potential warranty claims is provided for at the time of sale, based upon warranty terms and the Company’s prior experience.
Shipping and handling costs:
The Company expenses shipping and handling costs as incurred as part of cost of sales. Shipping and handling revenue is included in net sales.
Income taxes:
The Company accounts for income taxes using the liability method. Current income tax expense is the amount of income taxes expected to be payable for the current year. Deferred income taxes are recognized for the tax consequences in future years for differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their financial reporting amounts at each year-end (“temporary differences”) based on enacted laws and statutory rates applicable for the periods in which the temporary differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount that is considered more than likely not to be realized.
401(k) plan:
The Company provides a defined contribution 401(k) savings plan (the “401(k) Plan”) in which all full-time employees of the Company are eligible to participate. Eligible employees may contribute pre-tax amounts to the 401(k) Plan subject to the Internal Revenue Code limitations. Company contributions to the 401(k) Plan are at the discretion of the Board of Directors. There were no Company contributions in 2005 and 2004.
Valuation of long-lived assets:
The Company reviews its long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. The recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to the future net undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the asset.

Note 6 — Warranty reserve:
The Company accrues an estimate of its exposure to warranty claims based on both current and historical product sales data and warranty costs incurred. The air filters produced and sold by the Company carry a ten-year warranty. Additionally, the Company has warranties on its encasing products which vary from five years to lifetime. The warranty policies for the encasings have varied over the years and the reserve reflects coverage for sales from 1993 through the current period. The Company assesses the adequacy of its recorded warranty liability quarterly and adjusts the amount as necessary. The warranty liability is included in accrued expenses in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet. As of December 31, 2005, the warranty accrual was $290,517. The majority of the warranty accrual relates to products that were sold by ACP prior to the acquisition in August of 2005. Changes in the Company’s warranty liability were as follows:
                 
    2005     2004

Note 7 — Convertible notes payable to shareholder:
As of December 31, 2005, the Company has a subordinated convertible note payable to a shareholder. The uncollateralized note payable is due on December 1, 2007; however, the Company intends to pay down the note payable with monthly principal and interest payments of $12,085 until full satisfaction of the note payable in October 2006. Interest is due quarterly. At any time, the holder of the note may, at its sole and exclusive option, convert all or any part of the principal and accrued interest outstanding into shares of common stock at a conversion price of $2.50 per share by giving written notice to the Company specifying the amount of note principal and/or accrued interest to be converted at a price per share of common stock equal to the fair value.
The Company has determined that the embedded conversion feature of the note payable to the shareholder is subject to the provisions of SFAS No. 133 and therefore the Company accounted for the embedded conversion feature as a liability in accordance with the guidance of EITF 00-19, “Accounting for Derivative Financial Instruments Indexed to, and Potentially Settled in, a Company’s Own Stock” (EITF 00-19”). Accordingly the Company recorded the fair value of the embedded conversion portion of the note as a derivative liability. The associated derivative liability for the conversion feature of the debt has been valued at fair value using the Black-Scholes pricing model. As of January 1, 2005, the fair value of the liability was $252,757, which is being amortized over the term of the note. Through December 31, 2005, the Company recorded a charge for derivative financial instruments of $81,606 related to the change in the fair value of the embedded conversion feature.

Note 8 — Warrant Liability:
During 2005, the Company entered into an agreement with Crystal Research to prepare a Market Study. In exchange for the Study, Crystal Research received $30,000 and 25,000 warrants. As the warrants have not been issued as of December 31, 2005, the Company valued the warrants using the Black-Scholes pricing model using the following assumptions; (1) common stock fair value of $2.70 (2) expected volatility of 221%, (3) risk free interest rate of 4.40%, (4) life of 4 years, (5) no dividend, resulting in a fair value of $67,500, which was recorded as a warrant liability at December 31, 2005. Upon issuance of the warrants, the warrant liability will be reclassified to additional paid-in capital.
Note 9 — Income taxes:
The differences between income tax benefit provided at the Company’s effective rate and the federal statutory rate (34%) at December 31, 2005 and 2004 are as follows:
                 
    2005     2004  
Income tax benefit at statutory rate
  $ (513,000 )   $ (263,010 )
State taxes, net of Federal benefit

Total
  $     $  
 
           
Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effect of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. Significant components of the Company’s deferred tax assets (liabilities) at December 31, 2005 and 2004 are as follows:
                 
    2005     2004  
Net operating loss carryforwards
  $ 703,000     $ 4,636,000  
Product warranty reserve
    116,000       52,000  
Intangibles
    (577,000 )      
Tax credit carryforwards

Other reserves
    65,000       33,000

    (307,000 )     (4,863,000 )
 
           
 
               
Net deferred tax assets
  $     $  
 
           
As the ultimate realization of the potential benefits of the Company’s net operating loss carryforwards is considered unlikely by management, the Company has offset the deferred tax assets attributable to those potential benefits through a valuation allowance in 2005 and 2004 and, accordingly, the Company did not recognize any benefit from income taxes in the accompanying consolidated statement of operations.
At December 31, 2005 and 2004, the Company had federal and state net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $1,765,000 each, after application of the Section 382 “Change of Ownership” limitation. The federal tax loss will begin to expire in calendar year 2011, while the state tax loss carryforwards will expire through 2014.

Note 9 — Income taxes (concluded):
During 2004, as a result of the reorganization and acquisition of Allergy Free LLC assets and business operations, the Company experienced a change of ownership event as defined in Section 382 of the IRS Code. Accordingly, utilization of the net operating loss carryforwards and credits will be subject to substantial annual limitation due to the ownership change limitations provided by the IRS Code of 1986, as amended, and similar state provisions. The annual limitation will result in the expiration of the net operating losses and credits before utilization.
The acquisition of the Subsidiary qualified as a Section 368(a) of the IRS Code reorganization which resulted in a tax-free transaction between the parties. As assets and liabilities are recorded at fair value for financial statement purposes, non taxable business combinations generally give rise to differences between the assigned values for financial statement purposes and the tax basis of assets and liabilities, and therefore, result in the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities at the acquisition date.
Note 10 — Shareholders’ equity:
Warrants:
At December 31, 2005, warrants to purchase 1,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $208.125 per share were outstanding. The warrants expire in 2006.
All of the warrants outstanding are exercisable. All per share rights and benefits are subject to anti-dilution and other adjustments upon the occurrence of certain events.
Options:
In 2000, the Company established a stock option plan, the 2000 Stock Option Plan (“Plan”), which provided for 500,000 shares of common stock for issuance. At the time of the merger with Allergy Free in 2004, the Plan was amended to increase the number of shares available to 5,000,000 shares, which were converted to 100,000 shares after the 50:1 stock split. During 2005, the Plan was again amended to increase the number of shares available under the Plan to 350,000. The Plan provides for the discretionary grant of options, stock appreciation rights (“SARs”), and stock bonuses to employees and directors of and consultants to the Company. Options granted under the Plan may be either “incentive stock options,” as defined in Section 422 of the IRS Code of 1986, as amended, or non-statutory stock options.
Under the Plan, the terms of stock options granted are determined by the Board of Directors. Stock options may be granted for periods of up to ten years at a price per share not less than the fair market value of the Company’s common stock at the date of grant for incentive stock options and not less than 85% of the fair market value of the Company’s common stock at the date of grant for non-statutory stock options. In the case of stock options granted to employees, directors or consultants who, at the time of grant of such options, own more than 10% of the voting power of all classes of stock of the Company, the exercise price shall be no less than 110% of the fair market value of the Company’s common stock at the date of grant. Additionally, the term of stock option grants is limited to five years if the grantee owns in excess of 10% of the voting power of all classes of stock of the Company at the time of grant. The vesting provisions of individual options may vary but in each case will provide for vesting of at least 20% per year of the total number of shares subject to the option.

Note 14-— Purchases from significant vendors:
During 2005 and 2004, the Company made purchases from two significant vendors that each accounted for more that 10% of total purchases. Purchases from these vendors accounted for approximately 33% and 54% of total purchases in 2005 and 2004, respectively.
Note 15-— Acquisition:
On August 11, 2005, Planet acquired 100% of ACP. ACP has become a subsidiary of Planet and Planet issued and delivered to the sole-shareholder of ACP 600,000 shares of Planet common stock (or 300 shares of Planet common stock for each one share of ACP common stock outstanding). As a result, the sole-shareholder of ACP owns approximately 22% of the voting shares of Planet. As additional consideration, Planet paid $1,500,000 in cash to Jonathan T. Dawson in full payment of all indebtedness of ACP.
The business combination was accounted for under the purchase accounting method, with Planet as the accounting acquirer, as defined by SFAS 141. In accordance with SFAS 141, Planet allocated the purchase price to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values at the date of acquisition. In accordance with SFAS 141 and EITF Consensuses 95-19 and 99-12, the value of the shares of Planet’s common stock issued totaling $1,200,000 is based on the average market price of $2.00 for two days before and after the two companies reached agreement on the purchase price and the proposed transaction was announced. The total purchase price was $2,849,937, comprising of the $1,500,000 cash payment to Mr. Dawson, $1,200,000 of common stock issued and $149,937 in acquisition costs.

PLANET TECHNOLOGIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Planet Technologies, Inc. and subsidiary (“Planet” or the “Company”) have been prepared in accordance with the interim reporting requirements of Form 10-QSB, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. The December 31, 2005 balance sheet has been derived from audited financial statements at that date. However, the financial statements do not include all of the information and notes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for complete financial statements.
In management’s opinion, all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2006, are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2006. For additional information, refer to the Company’s financial statements and notes thereto for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2005 included in the Company’s most recent Annual Report on Form 10-KSB.
2. Going Concern
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. This basis of accounting contemplates the recovery of the Company’s assets and the satisfaction of its liabilities in the normal course of business. Successful transition to profitable operations is dependent upon attaining a level of sales adequate to support the Company’s cost structure. The Company has suffered recurring losses resulting in an accumulated deficit of $5,548,487 as of March 31, 2006. Management intends to finance operations primarily through cash flow from operations and by raising additional capital from the sale of its stock. However, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to obtain such financing or internally generate cash flows from operations, which may impact the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may result from the potential inability of the Company to continue as a going concern.
3. Acquisition
On August 11, 2005, Planet acquired Allergy Control Products, Inc. (“ACP”). ACP merged into a wholly-owned subsidiary of Planet (“New ACP”). The subsidiary continues to use the name “Allergy Control Products”. Effective August 11, 2005, Planet assigned all of the Allergy assets to its wholly-owned subsidiary, New ACP. Pursuant to the terms of the merger transaction, the shareholder of ACP was issued 600,000 shares of Planet common stock. In addition, ACP’s debt to its shareholder in the amount of $1,500,000 was paid in full by Planet.
The results of operations for the Company include the results of operations of ACP from August 11, 2005, the date of acquisition. The proforma operating results if the merger had been completed at January 1, 2005 is as follows:
         
    Three Months Ended  
    March 31, 2005  
Sales
  $ 2,379,481

4. Accounting Policies
Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 101, “Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements” (“SAB No. 101”) as amended by SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 104, “Revenue Recognition”, revised and updated (“SAB No. 104”), which stipulates that revenue generally is realized or realizable and earned, once persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred or services have been rendered, the fee is fixed or determinable and collectibility is reasonably assured. The Company recognizes revenue from product sales upon shipment of goods. In addition, a provision for potential warranty claims is provided for at the time of sale, based upon warranty terms and the Company’s prior experience.
Warranty Reserve
The Company accrues an estimate of its exposure to warranty claims based on both current and historical product sales data and warranty costs incurred. The air filters produced and sold by the Company carry a ten-year warranty. Additionally, the Company has warranties on its encasing products which vary from five years to lifetime. The warranty policies for the encasings have varied over the years and the reserve reflects coverage for sales from 1993 through the current period. The Company assesses the adequacy of its recorded warranty liability quarterly and adjusts the amount as necessary. The warranty liability is included in accrued expenses in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet. As of March 31, 2006, the warranty accrual was $290,517. The majority of the warranty accrual relates to products that were sold by ACP prior to the acquisition in August of 2005.
Inventory
Inventory as of March 31, 2006 consists of the following:
         
Raw materials
  $ 320,593  
Finished goods
    378,117  
 
     
Total
    698,710  
Less reverse for obsolescence
    77,507  
 
     
Total
  $ 621,203  
 
     
Loss Per Share
Net loss per share is computed using the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding and is presented for basic and diluted loss per share. Basic loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period.
The Company has excluded all convertible preferred stock and outstanding stock options and warrants from the calculation of diluted loss per share because all such securities are considered anti-dilutive. Accordingly, diluted loss per share equals basic loss per share. The total number of potential common shares excluded from the calculation of diluted loss per share for the three months ended March 31, 2006 was 394,434, and for the three months ended March 31, 2005 was 391,208.
5. Stock-Based Compensation
In 2000, the Company established a stock option plan, the 2000 Stock Option Plan (“Plan”), which provided for 500,000 shares of common stock for issuance. At the time of the merger with Allergy Free in 2004, the Plan was amended to increase the number of shares available to 5,000,000 shares, which were converted to 100,000 shares after the 50:1 stock split. During 2005, the Plan was again amended to increase the number of shares available under the Plan to 350,000. The Plan provides for the discretionary grant of options, stock appreciation rights (“SARs”), and stock bonuses to employees and directors of and consultants to the Company. Options

5. Stock-Based Compensation (continued)
granted under the Plan may be either “incentive stock options,” as defined in Section 422 of the IRS Code of 1986, as amended, or non-statutory stock options.
Under the Plan, the terms of stock options granted are determined by the Board of Directors. Stock options may be granted for periods of up to ten years at a price per share not less than the fair market value of the Company’s common stock at the date of grant for incentive stock options and not less than 85% of the fair market value of the Company’s common stock at the date of grant for non-statutory stock options. In the case of stock options granted to employees, directors or consultants who, at the time of grant of such options, own more than 10% of the voting power of all classes of stock of the Company, the exercise price shall be no less than 110% of the fair market value of the Company’s common stock at the date of grant. Additionally, the term of stock option grants is limited to five years if the grantee owns in excess of 10% of the voting power of all classes of stock of the Company at the time of grant. The vesting provisions of individual options may vary but in each case will provide for vesting of at least 20% per year of the total number of shares subject to the option.
Prior to January 1, 2006, the Company accounted for stock-based compensation under the disclosure only provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 123 “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation”. As permitted under this Standard, compensation cost was recognized using the intrinsic value method in accordance with the provisions of APB No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees” and related interpretations. Effective January 1, 2006, the Company has adopted SFAS No. 123R, “Share-Based Payment” using the modified-prospective transition method. Under this transition method, compensation cost recognized in the first quarter of 2006 includes (a) compensation cost for all stock options granted prior to, but not yet vested as of December 31, 2005, based on the grant date fair value estimated in accordance with the original provisions of SFAS No. 123, and (b) compensation cost for all stock options granted on or subsequent to January 1, 2006, based on the grant date fair value estimated in accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 123R. Results for prior periods have not been restated.
APB No. 25 did not require any compensation expense to be recorded in the financial statements if the exercise price of the award was not less than the market price on the date of grant. Since all options granted by the Company had exercise prices equal to or greater than the market price on the date of grant, no compensation expense was recognized for stock option grants prior to January 1, 2006. During the quarter ended March 31, 2006, the Company recognized stock-based compensation expenses of $55,044, or $.01 per share, related to outstanding stock options according to the provisions of SFAS No. 123R, using the prospective transition method.
In November 2005, the Finance and Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued FASB Staff Position No. FAS 123R-3, “Transition Election Related to Accounting for the Tax Effects of Share-Based Payment Awards [“FAS 123R-3”].” The Company has elected to adopt the alternative transition method provided in FAS 123R-3 for calculating the tax effects of share-based compensation pursuant to SFAS 123R. The alternative transition method includes a simplified method to establish the beginning balance of the additional paid-in capital pool related to the tax effects of employee share-based compensation, which is available to absorb tax deficiencies recognized subsequent to the adoption of SFAS 123R.
The following table illustrates the effect on net loss and per share information had the Company accounted for share-based compensation in accordance with SFAS No. 123R for the quarter ended March 31, 2005:

5. Stock-Based Compensation (concluded)
The above stock based compensation cost was determined under the fair value based method and was calculated using the Black-Scholes option valuation model with the following weighted average assumptions:
         
    2005
Volatility
    221 %
Dividend yield
     
Risk free interest rate
    4.22 %
Vesting period
    4 years  
Expected life
    10 years  
The Black-Scholes option valuation model was developed for use in estimating the fair value of traded options, which have no vesting restrictions, are fully transferable, and do not include a discount for large block trades. In addition, option valuation models require the input of highly subjective assumptions including the expected stock price volatility, expected life of the option and other estimates. Because the Company’s employee stock options have characteristics significantly different from those of traded options, and because changes in the subjective input assumptions can materially affect the fair value estimate, in management’s opinion, the existing models do not necessarily provide a reliable single measure of the fair value of its employee stock options. Management believes that there will be no forfeitures and expects the options to be held until their expiration date based on the fact that they are primarily held by board members. This will be evaluated on a continuing basis.
During the quarter ended March 31, 2005, the Company granted options to it’s employees and Board of Directors at the weighted-average fair value of $2.90.
The table below summarizes stock option activity pursuant to our plan for the three months ended March 31, 2006:

During 2005, the Board of Directors granted 154,113 options in excess of the shareholder authorized 2000 Stock Option Plan limit of 350,000 shares. As such, these options are subject to shareholder approval at the next shareholders’ meeting and have been excluded from the calculation above. Had these options been approved, the Company would have recorded an additional $25,113 of stock-based compensation for the period ended March 31, 2006, resulting in an additional $.01 loss per share, basic and diluted.
At March 31, 2006, unrecorded compensation expense related to the unvested portion of stock options outstanding totaled $551,812, which will be recognized over the next 3.25 years. In accordance with the provisions of SFAS 123R, all other issuances of common stock, warrants, stock options or other equity instruments to non-employees as the consideration for goods or services received by the Company are accounted for based on the fair value of the equity instruments issued (unless the fair value of the consideration received can be more reliably measured). Generally, the fair value of any options, warrants or similar equity investments will be estimated based on the Black-Scholes option-pricing model and adjusted at the end of each reporting period.

6. Convertible notes payable to shareholder
As of March 31, 2006, the Company has a subordinated convertible note payable to a shareholder. The uncollateralized note payable is due on December 1, 2007; however, the Company intends to pay down the note payable with monthly principal and interest payments of $12,085 until full satisfaction of the note payable in October 2006. Interest is due quarterly. At any time, the holder of the note may, at its sole and exclusive option, convert all or any part of the principal and accrued interest outstanding into shares of common stock at a conversion price of $2.50 per share by giving written notice to the Company specifying the amount of note principal and/or accrued interest to be converted at a price per share of common stock equal to the fair value.
The Company has determined that the embedded conversion feature of the note payable to the shareholder is subject to the provisions of SFAS No. 133 and, therefore, the Company accounted for the embedded conversion feature as a liability in accordance with the guidance of EITF 00-19, “Accounting for Derivative Financial Instruments Indexed to, and Potentially Settled in, a Company’s Own Stock” (“EITF 00-19”). Accordingly, the Company recorded the fair value of the embedded conversion portion of the note as a derivative liability. The associated derivative liability for the conversion feature of the debt has been valued at fair value using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. As of January 1, 2005, the fair value of the liability was $252,757, which is being amortized over the term of the note. For the three months ended March 31, 2006, the Company recorded a charge for derivative financial instruments of $1,888 related to the change in the fair value of the embedded conversion feature.

Item 2— Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operation
Planet Technologies, Inc. and Subsidiary
Except for the historical information contained herein, the discussion in this report contains forward-looking statements that involve certain risks and uncertainties. The Company’s actual results could differ materially from those discussed in this report. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to those discussed below and in the Company’s Form 10-KSB for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2005.
OVERVIEW
Planet Technologies, Inc. (“Planet” or the “Company”) formerly known as Planet Polymer Technologies, Inc. (“Planet Polymer”) was incorporated in August, 1991, in the State of California, and, since November 30, 2004, at which time the company acquired Allergy Free, LLC, is engaged in the business of designing, manufacturing, selling and distributing common products for use by allergy sensitive persons, including, without limitation, air filters, bedding, room air cleaners, and related allergen avoidance products. The business strategy is primarily based upon promotion of products directly to the consumer by telemarketing to the Company’s database of customers who have purchased the Allergy Free Electrostatic Filter.
On August 11, 2005, Planet completed a merger with Allergy Control Products, Inc. (“ACP”). ACP merged into a wholly-owned subsidiary of Planet (“New ACP”). Effective August 11, 2005, Planet assigned all of the Allergy Free assets to its wholly-owned subsidiary New ACP. The subsidiary was renamed and its ongoing name is “Allergy Control Products” (“the Subsidiary”). References to “us”, “we”, “Planet” and “Company” refer to the consolidated operations of Planet and its Subsidiary.
With the merger, Planet has added to its stable of allergen control products, and has incorporated ACP’s core business strategy to supply a complete range of high quality products to physician’s patients who are allergy sufferers, as well as to previous customers. Promotion is executed through (a) distribution of catalogs to physicians’ offices, for subsequent re-distribution to patients, (b) distribution of catalogs directly to previous customers and (c) selective e-commerce marketing initiatives. Customer transactions are primarily handled through ACP’s in-bound call center and its website. In addition to this core business strategy, ACP also sells selective products on a wholesale basis to domestic retailers as well as to international distributors.
Products include ACP’s own Allergy Control® branded bedding products, which are effective barriers to the transmission of dust mite allergen and pet dander. ACP also markets other bedding products, carpet cleaning and laundry products, vacuums, air cleaners and air filters, sinus and breathing aids, respiratory products, dehumidifiers, mold prevention and house cleaning products, pet allergy products and certain allergy-related skin and hair care products.
Market distribution channels (non-wholesale) for allergen avoidance products include: physician-directed sales, direct to consumer sales, the Internet and retail. In the physician-directed sales segment, ACP’s primary competitors are National Allergy Supply, Asthma and Allergies Technology, Allergy Solutions and Mission Allergy.
Planet has an accumulated deficit of $5,548,487 as of March 31, 2006.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The inclusion of ACP’s financial results for the three months ended March 31, 2006 resulted in material year over year increases in sales, cost of sales and operating expenses for each of those reporting periods. These increases are not necessarily indicative of future year over year comparisons.
Resources currently are being committed to test marketing of a) ACP’s non-filter product lines to Allergy’s customer base, b) Allergy’s filter product lines to ACP’s customer base and c) ACP’s consumer catalog to

Allergy’s customer base. Future gross margins will reflect the results of these test marketing efforts and their impact on the future blend of sales for product lines with varying gross margins.
Three months ended March 31, 2006 compared to three months ended March 31, 2005
The net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2006, was $337,596 compared to a net loss of $241,029 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2005. The Company’s sales increased by $2,096,302 from $221,526 for the three months ended March 31, 2005, to $2,317,828 for the same period in 2006. This increase was due to sales of the Subsidiary which accounted for approximately 92% of sales for the period.
Gross profit increased to $931,897 for the three months ended March 31, 2006, from $146,021 for the same period in 2005, reflecting the increase in revenues. Overall gross margin, as a percentage of sales, decreased period over period from 66% for the three months ended March 31, 2005 to 40% for the same period in 2006. This decrease in gross margin is due to the inclusion of ACP’s sales which have a lower gross profit margin.
Operating expenses increased period over period, totaling $1,264,100 for the three months ended March 31, 2006, and $380,179 for the same period in 2005. This $883,921 increase reflects the inclusion of ACP’s operating costs.
Other expenses decreased $1,478, from $6,871 for the three months ended March 31, 2005, to $5,393 for the same period in 2006. Of this decrease, approximately $3,400 is due to a reduction of interest expense related to the debt approaching maturity. This decrease was partially offset by amortization of derivative costs of $1,888.
Proforma Three months ended March 31, 2006 compared to three months ended March 31, 2005
The following tables set forth certain items in Planet’s Proforma Statements of Operations for the periods indicated, which combine the operations of Planet and ACP as if the merger had been completed on January 1, 2005.

Net Loss

The Company’s net sales decreased by $61,653 from $2,379,481 to $2,317,828 due to the decrease in sales of Allergy Free related products, which decreased from $221,526 in 2005 to approximately $132,000 in 2006. The decrease is the result of increased competition from mass merchandisers. This decrease was offset by an increase in the sales of ACP products.
Overall proforma gross margin, as a percentage of sales, decreased from 42% for the three months ended March 31, 2005 to 40% for the same period in 2006. This decrease in gross margin is due to large increase in international sales to distributors for ACP which have lower margins than domestic sales. Also, the Allergy Free sales which have a higher gross margin decreased from 2005 to 2006.
Between March 31, 2006 and March 31, 2005, total operating expenses decreased $60,994, totaling $1,264,100 for the three months ended March 31, 2006, and $1,325,094 for the same period in 2005. This decrease reflects

the reduction of costs associated with the consolidation of all operations into one location. The decrease was partially offset by stock-based compensation expense of $55,044 as well as amortization of intangibles of $66,250 and increasing public entity expenses associated with the audit of a larger operating entity.
Proforma other expenses decreased from $6,409 for the three months ended March 31, 2005, to $5,393 for the same period in 2006. The $1,016 decrease in other expenses includes a $3,400 reduction of interest expense related to the debt approaching maturity. This decrease was partially offset with the amortization of derivative costs of $1,888.
The proforma net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2006, was $337,596, compared to $323,990 for the three month period ended March 31, 2005. The proforma net loss for 2006 includes stock-based compensation of $55,044 and the amortization of intangibles of $66,250.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. This basis of accounting contemplates the recovery of the Company’s assets and the satisfaction of its liabilities in the normal course of business. Successful transition to profitable operations is dependent upon attaining a level of sales adequate to support the Company’s cost structure. The Company has suffered recurring losses resulting in an accumulated deficit of $5,548,487 as of March 31, 2006. Management intends to finance operations primarily through cash flow from operations and by raising additional capital from the sale of its stock. However, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to obtain such financing or internally generate cash flows from operations, which may impact the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may result from the potential inability of the Company to continue as a going concern.
Cash and cash equivalents totaled $307,314 at March 31, 2006. During the period, the Company used cash totaling $92,830 for its operations and the Company paid principal payments totaling $36,700 on notes payable.
Inventory levels increased $43,871 from $577,332 at December 31, 2005 to $621,203 at March 31, 2006, reflecting inventory levels required to handle increasing sales demand. Accounts payable and accrued expenses increased by $208,471, from $1,503,175 at December 31, 2005 to $1,711,646 at March 31, 2006, reflecting liabilities associated with catalog purchases which is normal for this time of year.
On August 11, 2005, Planet completed a merger with Allergy Control Products, Inc. (“ACP”). ACP merged into a wholly-owned subsidiary of Planet (“New ACP”). Effective August 11, 2005, Planet assigned all of the Allergy Free assets to its wholly-owned subsidiary New ACP. The subsidiary was renamed and its ongoing name is “Allergy Control Products” (“the Subsidiary”).
Investors are encouraged to review our report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on August 12, 2005 and our Registration Statement on Form SB-2 filed on October 12, 2005, which discuss more thoroughly the terms of the merger and which is available through EDGAR at www.sec.gov, and the Company’s Proxy Statement which also is available through EDGAR.

Item 3 — Controls and Procedures
Planet Technologies, Inc. and Subsidiary
The Company’s management with the participation of the Company’s chief executive officer and chief financial officer have evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a – 15(e) and 15d – 15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on such evaluation, the Company’s chief executive officer and chief financial officer have concluded that, as of the end of such period, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were not effective due to material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting described below.
    Insufficient accounting staff with the appropriate level of knowledge and a lack of sufficient historical information regarding sales of ACP products.
 
    Insufficient number of staff and lack of adequate data processing support.
In the process of conducting their audit for the year ended December 31, 2005, J.H. Cohn LLP, our independent registered public accounting firm (“JHC”), identified material weaknesses in the processes and procedures with our accounting and financial reporting function which were addressed as part of the communications by JHC with our audit committee. JHC informed the audit committee that these deficiencies constituted a material weakness under standards established by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board.
During the first quarter of 2006, the Company has assigned a high priority to the short-term and long-term improvement of our internal control over financial reporting. Actions to address the material weaknesses described above that we will undertake, or have undertaken, include the following, among others:
    Hiring of additional qualified accounting staff to facilitate the reporting within the time periods specified by the SEC.
 
    Implementing new accounting reporting software in the short-term to expedite the reporting function and an upgrade to the overall accounting software system in the long-term so that analysis and evaluation of information can be better processed within the time periods required by the SEC.
Except as described above, there has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

          Section 1. Indemnification of Directors and Officers. (a) The Corporation shall indemnify and hold harmless any person who was or is a witness, a party or is threatened to be made a party to or involved in any threatened, pending or completed claim, action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other than an action by or in the right of the Corporation) by reason of the fact that such person or a person of whom such person is the legal representative is or was, at any time prior to or during which this Article VI is in effect, a director, officer, employee or agent of the Corporation, or is or was, at any time prior to or during which this Article VI is in effect, serving at the request of the Corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, or other enterprise, including service with respect to an employee benefit plan, whether the basis of such claim, action, suit, or proceeding is alleged action or inaction in an official capacity as a director, officer, employee or agent, against any liability, loss or expense (including attorneys’ fees), judgment, fine, penalty, excise tax pursuant to the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, amount paid in settlement and other liabilities actually and reasonably incurred or suffered by such person in connection with such claim, action, suit or proceeding if such person acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Corporation and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe that his conduct was unlawful. The termination of any claim, action, suit or proceeding by judgment, order, settlement, conviction or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent shall not, of itself, create a presumption that such person did not act in good faith and in a manner which he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Corporation or, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, create a presumption that such person had reasonable cause to believe that his conduct was unlawful.
          (b) The Corporation shall indemnify and hold harmless any person who was or is a witness, a party or is threatened to be made a party to or involved in any threatened, pending or completed claim, action, suit or proceeding by or in the right of the Corporation to procure a judgment in its favor by reason of the fact that such person or a person of whom such person is the legal representative is or was, at any time prior to or during which this Article VI is in effect, a director, officer, employee or agent of the Corporation, or is or was, at any time prior to or during which this Article VI is in effect, serving at the request of the Corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, including service with respect to an employee benefit plan, whether the basis of such claim, action, suit or proceeding is alleged action or inaction in an official capacity as a director, officer, employee or agent, against all expenses (including attorneys’ fees) and amounts paid in settlement, actually and reasonably incurred or suffered by such person in connection with the defense or settlement of such claim, action, suit or proceeding if such person acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Corporation and, with respect

-11-

to the amounts paid in settlement, the settlement is determined to be in the best interests of the Corporation; provided that no indemnification shall be made under this subsection (b) in respect of any claim, issue or matter as to which such person shall have been adjudged to be liable for gross negligence, recklessness or willful misconduct in the performance of his duty to the Corporation unless and only to the extent that the Delaware Court of Chancery, or other court of appropriate jurisdiction, shall determine upon application that, despite the adjudication of liability but in view of all the circumstances of the case, such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity of such expenses which the Delaware Court of Chancery, or other court of appropriate jurisdiction, shall deem proper.
          (c) Any indemnification under subsections (a) and (b) (unless ordered by the Delaware Court of Chancery or other court of appropriate jurisdiction) shall be made by the Corporation only as authorized in the specific case upon a determination that indemnification of such person is proper in the circumstances because he has met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in subsections (a) and (b). Such determination shall be made (1) by the Board of Directors by a majority vote of a quorum consisting of directors not parties to such claim, action, suit or proceeding, (2) if such a quorum is not obtainable or, even if obtainable, a quorum of disinterested directors so directs, by independent legal counsel, selected by the Board of Directors or (3) by the stockholders. In the event a determination is made under this subsection (c) that the director, officer, employee or agent has met the applicable standard of conduct as to some matters but not as to others, amounts to be indemnified may be reasonably prorated.
          (d) Notwithstanding the other provisions of this Article VI, to the extent that a director, officer, employee or agent of the Corporation has been successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any claim, action, suit or proceeding referred to in subsection (a), or in defense of any issue or matter therein, such person shall be indemnified against all expenses (including attorney’s fees) actually and reasonably incurred in connection therewith.
          (e) The right of indemnification conferred in this Article VI shall be a contract right and shall include the right to be paid by the Corporation the expenses incurred in appearing at, participating in or defending any threatened, pending or completed claim, action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, and shall be paid by the Corporation at reasonable intervals in advance of the final disposition of such action, suit or proceeding as authorized by the Board of Directors in the specific case upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of the director, officer, employee or agent to repay such amount unless it shall ultimately be determined that he is entitled to be indemnified by the Corporation as authorized by this Article VI.
          (f) It is the intention of the Corporation to indemnify the persons referred to in this Article VI to the fullest extent permitted by law with respect to any claim, action, suit or proceeding arising from events which occur at any time prior to or during which this Article VI is in effect. The indemnification provided by this Article VI shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which those seeking indemnification may be or become entitled to under any law, the Certificate of Incorporation, Bylaws, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise, or under any policy or policies of insurance purchased and maintained by the Corporation on behalf of any such person, both as to action in his official capacity and as to action in another capacity while

          Where a share certificate has been lost, stolen or destroyed and the owner fails to notify the Corporation of that fact within a reasonable time after notice thereof, and the Corporation registers a transfer of the shares represented by the certificate before receiving such a notification, the owner is precluded from asserting against the Corporation any claim to a new certificate.
          If after the issue of a new certificate as a replacement for a lost, stolen or destroyed certificate, a bona fide purchaser of the original certificate presents it for registration of transfer, the Corporation must register the transfer unless registration would result in over-issue. In addition to any rights on the indemnity bond, the Corporation may recover the new certificate from the person to whom it was issued or any assignee thereof except a bona fide purchaser.
          Section 4. Transfer Agents and Registrars. The Board of Directors may appoint one or more transfer agents or transfer clerks, and one or more registrars which shall be an incorporated bank or trust company, either domestic or foreign, and which shall be appointed at such times and places as the requirements of the Corporation may necessitate and the Board of Directors may designate.
          Section 5. Fixing Date for Determination of Stockholders of Record for Certain Purposes. (a) In order that the Corporation may determine the stockholders entitled to notice of or to vote at any meeting of stockholders or any adjournment thereof, or to express consent to corporate action in writing without a meeting, or to receive payment of any dividend or other distribution or allotment of any rights, or to exercise any rights in respect of any change, conversion or exchange of capital stock or notice of or participation in any other lawful action, the Board of Directors may fix, in advance, a record date, which shall not be more than 60 days prior to the date of payment of such dividend or other distribution or allotment of such rights or the date when any such rights in respect of any change, conversion or exchange of stock may be exercised or the date of such other action. In such case, only such stockholders of record on the date so fixed shall be

-14-


Table of Contents

entitled to receive any such dividend or other distribution or allotment of rights, or to exercise such rights or for any other purpose, as the case may be, notwithstanding any transfer of any stock on the books of the Corporation after any such record date fixed as aforesaid.
          (b) If no record date is fixed, the record date for determining stockholders for any such purpose shall be at the close of business on the day on which the Board of Directors adopts the resolution relating thereto.
          Section 6. Registered Stockholders. Except as expressly provided by law or these Bylaws, the Corporation shall be entitled to treat registered stockholders as the only holders and owners in fact of the shares standing in their respective names, and the Corporation shall not be bound to recognize any equitable or other claim to or interest in such shares on the part of any other person, whether or not it shall have express or other notice thereof.
          Section 7. Transfer of Stock. Transfers of shares of the capital stock of the Corporation shall be made only on the books of the Corporation by the registered owners thereof, or by their legal representatives or their duly authorized attorneys, and upon such transfer the old certificates shall be surrendered to the Corporation by the delivery thereof to the person in charge of the stock transfer books and ledgers, by whom they shall be cancelled and new certificates shall thereupon be issued.
