The Annual Meeting has been called for the purposes set forth in the accompanying Notice of the Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the "Notice"). This Proxy Statement, and the Annual Report of the Company for the year ended May 31, 2014, will be mailed on or about October 27, 2014, to each stockholder of record as of the close of business on October 20, 2014.</font></p> <p style="TEXT-ALIGN:justify; MARGIN:0in 0in 0pt">&nbsp;</p> <p style="TEXT-ALIGN:justify; MARGIN:0in 0in 0pt"><b><font style=FONT-SIZE:10pt face="times new roman" lang=EN-US>RECORD DATE AND OUTSTANDING SHARES</font></b></p> <p style="TEXT-ALIGN:justify; MARGIN:0in 0in 0pt">&nbsp;</p> <p style="TEXT-ALIGN:justify; MARGIN:0in 0in 0pt"><font style=FONT-SIZE:10pt face="times new roman" lang=EN-US>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; The close of business on October 20, 2014, has been set as the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to notice of and to vote at the Annual Meeting (the "Record Date"). As of September 27, 2014, there was outstanding and entitled to vote an aggregate of approximately 7,551,964 shares of the Company's common stock, $0.08 par value per share (the "Common Stock"), held of record by approximately 857 stockholders.

Usually, this would occur when brokers holding stock in "street name" have not received any instructions from clients, in which case the brokers (as holders of record) are generally permitted by the rules of the New York Stock Exchange to vote only on "discretionary" matters. Under a 2009 amendment to such rules, the uncontested election of directors is no longer a "discretionary" matter, and therefore brokers will not be permitted to vote shares for which they have not received voting instructions in favor of the proposed election of directors. Furthermore, approval of a stock incentive plan is not a &#147;discretionary&#148; matter, and brokers will therefore not be permitted to vote shares for which they have not received voting instructions in favor of the proposed approval of the 2014 Stock Incentive Plan. However, under such rules, the proposed ratification of the selection by the Audit Committee of PKF, Certified Public Accountants, a Professional Corporation as the Company's independent public accounting firm for the current fiscal year, is a "discretionary" matter, and the Company believes brokers will therefore generally be able to vote shares held in "street name" on such matters without receiving instructions from the beneficial holders of such shares. </font></p> <p style="TEXT-ALIGN:justify; MARGIN:5pt 0in"><font style=FONT-SIZE:10pt face="Times New Roman" lang=EN-US>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Directors shall be elected by a plurality of the votes cast at the meeting of stockholders.&nbsp; The affirmative vote of a majority of the votes properly cast is required (i) to approve the Company&#146;s 2014 Stock Incentive Plan and (ii) to ratify the selection of PKF, Certified Public Accountants, a Professional Corporation as the Company's independent public accounting firm for the current fiscal year.&nbsp; Abstentions on such election and the other proposal, </font><font style=FONT-SIZE:10pt face="Times New Roman" lang=EN-US>and any broker "non-votes," will be counted as present or represented for purposes of determining the presence of a quorum for the meeting, but will not be taken into account in the voting except that, for purposes of the vote on the Company&#146;s 2014 Stock Incentive Plan, any abstentions will be treated as votes cast against approval of such proposal.</font></p> <p style="TEXT-ALIGN:justify; MARGIN:0in 0in 0pt"><font style=FONT-SIZE:10pt face="times new roman" lang=EN-US>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; All votes will be tabulated by the inspector of elections appointed for the meeting, who will separately tabulate, for the proposal, affirmative and negative votes, abstentions and broker non-votes.</font></p> <p style="TEXT-ALIGN:justify; MARGIN:0in 0in 0pt">&nbsp;</p> <p style="TEXT-ALIGN:justify; MARGIN:0in 0in 0pt">&nbsp;</p><a name=_aciFooter3> <div> <p style="TEXT-ALIGN:center; MARGIN:0in 0in 0pt" align=center><font style=FONT-SIZE:10pt face="Times New Roman" lang=EN-US>-2-</font></p> <p style="MARGIN:0in 0in 0pt">&nbsp;</p></div></div> <hr width=100% size=2 noshade align=center> <div style=PAGE-BREAK-BEFORE:always>&nbsp;</div><a name=page_4> <div style="PADDING-LEFT:0%; PADDING-RIGHT:0%"><a name=_aciHeader4> <div> <p style="MARGIN:0in 0in 0pt">&nbsp;</p></div> <p style="TEXT-ALIGN:justify; MARGIN:5pt 0in"> <p style="TEXT-ALIGN:justify; MARGIN:0in 0in 0pt"><b><font style=FONT-SIZE:10pt face="times new roman" lang=EN-US>APPRAISAL RIGHTS</font></b></p> <p style="TEXT-ALIGN:justify; MARGIN:0in 0in 0pt">&nbsp;</p> <p style="TEXT-ALIGN:justify; MARGIN:0in 0in 0pt"><font style=FONT-SIZE:10pt face="times new roman" lang=EN-US>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Under Delaware law, stockholders are not entitled to any appraisal rights with respect to the approval of any of the proposals described in this Proxy Statement.</font></p> <p style="TEXT-ALIGN:justify; MARGIN:0in 0in 0pt">&nbsp;</p> <p style="TEXT-ALIGN:justify; MARGIN:0in 0in 0pt"><b><font style=FONT-SIZE:10pt face="times new roman" lang=EN-US>PERSONS MAKING THE SOLICITATION</font></b></p> <p style="TEXT-ALIGN:justify; MARGIN:0in 0in 0pt">&nbsp;</p> <p style="TEXT-ALIGN:justify; MARGIN:0in 0in 0pt"><font style=FONT-SIZE:10pt face="times new roman" lang=EN-US>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; The Proxy accompanying this Proxy Statement is solicited on behalf of the Board of Directors of the Company for use at the Annual Meeting.

The Board of Directors believes that the interests of the Company and its stockholders will be best served by approving the Plan. All shares under the Company&#146;s 2010 Stock Incentive Plan have been granted, therefore, the Company has no Stock Incentive Plan under which new shares may be granted at this time. The Board believes the Plan will enhance the Company's ability to recruit and maintain qualified management and personnel by including stock options as part of compensation packages.&nbsp; Options provide an incentive to employees to contribute to the success of the Company which would provide a benefit to employees as well as to the shareholders. In addition, it conserves cash flow by having part of an employee&#146;s compensation in the form of options. The following summary description of the Plan is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Plan, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit A.</font></p> <p style="TEXT-ALIGN:justify; MARGIN:0in 0in 0pt">&nbsp;</p> <p style="TEXT-ALIGN:justify; MARGIN:0in 0in 0pt"><font style=FONT-SIZE:10pt face="times new roman" lang=EN-US>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; PURPOSE. The Plan is intended to provide incentive to employees, officers, directors and others expected to provide significant services to the Company, to encourage proprietary interest in the Company, to encourage such employees to remain in the employ of the Company, to attract new employees with outstanding qualifications, and to afford additional incentive to others to increase their efforts in providing significant services to the Company.</font></p> <p style="TEXT-ALIGN:justify; MARGIN:0in 0in 0pt">&nbsp;</p> <p style="TEXT-ALIGN:justify; MARGIN:0in 0in 0pt">&nbsp;</p><a name=_aciFooter11> <div> <p style="TEXT-ALIGN:center; MARGIN:0in 0in 0pt" align=center><font style=FONT-SIZE:10pt face="Times New Roman" lang=EN-US>-10-</font></p> <p style="MARGIN:0in 0in 0pt">&nbsp;</p></div></div> <hr width=100% size=2 noshade align=center> <div style=PAGE-BREAK-BEFORE:always>&nbsp;</div><a name=page_12> <div style="PADDING-LEFT:0%; PADDING-RIGHT:0%"><a name=_aciHeader12> <div> <p style="MARGIN:0in 0in 0pt">&nbsp;</p></div> <p style="TEXT-ALIGN:justify; MARGIN:0in 0in 0pt"><font style=FONT-SIZE:10pt face="times new roman" lang=EN-US>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; ADMINISTRATION.

The Company's Plan provides for the grant of (i) incentive stock options ("ISOs") within the meaning of Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code") and (ii) stock options that are not intended to qualify under Section 422 of the Code ("NQSOs"; collectively with ISOs, "Options"). The Plan also authorizes the award of shares of restricted Common Stock ("Restricted Stock").</font></p> <p style="TEXT-ALIGN:justify; MARGIN:0in 0in 0pt">&nbsp;</p> <p style="TEXT-ALIGN:justify; MARGIN:0in 0in 0pt"><font style=FONT-SIZE:10pt face="times new roman" lang=EN-US>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF AWARDS. Options granted under the Plan will vest and become exercisable as determined by the Stock Option Committee or the Board of Directors. Awards will be subject to the terms and restrictions of the awards made by the Stock Option Committee or the Board of Directors. Option and award recipients shall enter into a written stock option agreement with the Company. The Stock Option Committee or the Board of Directors has discretionary authority to select participants from among eligible persons and to determine, at the time an Option or award is granted, when and in what increments shares covered by the Option or award will vest and may be purchased. In the case of an Option, the Stock Option Committee or the Board of Directors also has the discretionary authority to determine, at the time such Option is granted, whether the Option is intended to be an ISO or a NQSO, provided, however, that certain restrictions applicable to ISOs are mandatory, including a requirement that ISOs not be issued for less than 100% of the then fair market value of the Common Stock (110% in the case of a grantee who holds more than 10% of the outstanding Common Stock) and a maximum exercise period of ten (10) years (five (5) years in the case of a grantee who holds more than 10% of the outstanding</font></p> <p style="TEXT-ALIGN:justify; MARGIN:0in 0in 0pt"><font style=FONT-SIZE:10pt face="times new roman" lang=EN-US>Common Stock). Fair market value is determined by the Board of Directors or the Stock Option Committee in good faith, for which the Board or Committee may refer to the price at which the shares traded at the close of business on the date of valuation as quoted on Yahoo.Finance.com.

Officers, directors and employees of the Company and other persons expected to provide bona fide services to the Company are eligible to participate in the Plan.

Unless previously terminated by the Board of Directors, the Plan will terminate on September 23, 2024, and no options may be granted under the Plan thereafter, but existing options will remain in effect until the options are exercised or terminated by their terms.</font></p> <p style="TEXT-ALIGN:justify; MARGIN:0in 0in 0pt">&nbsp;</p> <p style="TEXT-ALIGN:justify; MARGIN:0in 0in 0pt"><font style=FONT-SIZE:10pt face="times new roman" lang=EN-US>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; TERM OF OPTIONS. Each stock option must terminate no more than ten (10) years from the date it is granted (or five (5) years in the case of ISOs granted to an employee who is deemed to own in excess of ten percent (10%) of the combined voting power of the Company's outstanding equity stock). Stock options may be granted on terms providing for exercise either in whole or in part at any time or times during their restrictive terms, or only in specified percentages at the stated time periods or intervals during the term of the stock option.</font></p> <p style="TEXT-ALIGN:justify; MARGIN:0in 0in 0pt">&nbsp;</p> <p style="TEXT-ALIGN:justify; MARGIN:0in 0in 0pt"><font style=FONT-SIZE:10pt face="times new roman" lang=EN-US>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; OPTION EXERCISE. The exercise price of any stock option granted under the Plan is payable in full in cash.

The Board of Directors may, without affecting any outstanding stock options, from time to time revise or amend the Plan, and may suspend or discontinue it at any time. However, no such revision or amendment may, without stockholder approval, increase the number of shares subject to the Plan.</font></p> <p style="TEXT-ALIGN:justify; MARGIN:0in 0in 0pt">&nbsp;</p> <p style="TEXT-ALIGN:justify; MARGIN:0in 0in 0pt"><font style=FONT-SIZE:10pt face="times new roman" lang=EN-US>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; COMMON STOCK. The Common Stock reserved for issuance under the Plan is currently traded Over-the-Counter under the symbol BMRA.OB. The closing per share market value of the Common Stock on September 23, 2014 (the date of the adoption of the Plan by the Board of Directors) was $0.83.

Following is a brief summary of the principal federal income tax consequences of awards under the Plan. This summary is not an exhaustive description and does not describe all applicable federal, state or local tax laws.</font></p> <p style="TEXT-ALIGN:justify; MARGIN:0in 0in 0pt">&nbsp;</p> <p style="TEXT-ALIGN:justify; MARGIN:0in 0in 0pt"><font style=FONT-SIZE:10pt face="times new roman" lang=EN-US>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; INCENTIVE STOCK OPTIONS. A Plan participant is not subject to federal income tax at the time of either the grant or the exercise of an ISO. In the year in which an ISO is exercised, however, the amount by which the fair market value of the shares of Common Stock received upon the exercise of an ISO exceeds the exercise price will constitute an adjustment to the option holder's income in computing alternative minimum taxable income. Such adjustment could result in the imposition of, or increase the amount of, the option holder's "alternative minimum tax" under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code").</font></p> <p style="TEXT-ALIGN:justify; MARGIN:0in 0in 0pt">&nbsp;</p> <p style="TEXT-ALIGN:justify; MARGIN:0in 0in 0pt"><font style=FONT-SIZE:10pt face="times new roman" lang=EN-US>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; If an option holder does not dispose of such shares of Common Stock within two (2) years after the ISO was granted or one (1) year after the ISO was exercised, whichever is later (any such disposition, a "disqualifying event"), then any gain or loss recognized upon such disposition generally will be treated as long-term capital gain or loss. In such event, the Company will not receive a tax deduction on either the exercise of the ISO or on the sale of the underlying Common Stock.</font></p> <p style="TEXT-ALIGN:justify; MARGIN:0in 0in 0pt">&nbsp;</p> <p style="TEXT-ALIGN:justify; MARGIN:0in 0in 0pt"><font style=FONT-SIZE:10pt face="times new roman" lang=EN-US>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; If an option holder makes a "disqualifying disposition," the option holder will realize ordinary income in an amount equal to the lesser of (i) the fair market value of the Common Stock on the date the ISO is exercised minus the exercise price, or (ii) the sales price received by the option holder on the disposition of such Common Stock minus the exercise price. In such event, the Company will be entitled to a deduction in an amount equal to the ordinary income recognized by the option holder. If a sale is a disqualifying disposition, the option holder also may realize short-term or long-term capital gain or loss, if such shares constitute capital assets in an option holder's hands. The gain or loss will be measured by the difference between the fair market value of the shares on the date of exercise of the ISO and the sales price of the shares.</font></p> <p style="TEXT-ALIGN:justify; MARGIN:0in 0in 0pt"><font style=FONT-SIZE:10pt face="times new roman" lang=EN-US>&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;</font></p> <p style="TEXT-ALIGN:justify; MARGIN:0in 0in 0pt"><font style=FONT-SIZE:10pt face="times new roman" lang=EN-US>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; NON-QUALIFIED STOCK OPTIONS. No income is realized by an option holder upon the grant of an NQSO with an exercise price equal to at least the fair market value of the underlying common stock on the date of the grant. Upon the exercise of an NQSO, however, the amount by which the fair market value of the Common Stock on the date of exercise exceeds the exercise price will be taxed as ordinary income to an option holder and the Company will be entitled to a deduction in an equal amount. Upon subsequent sales of Common Stock received upon exercise of NQSO's, an option holder may realize short-term or long-term capital gain or loss, depending upon the holding period of the shares, if such shares constitute capital assets in the option holder's hands. The gain or loss will be measured by the difference between the sales price and the tax basis of the shares sold. The tax basis for this purpose will be the sum of the exercise price and the amount of ordinary income realized by the option holder as a</font></p> <p style="TEXT-ALIGN:justify; MARGIN:0in 0in 0pt"><font style=FONT-SIZE:10pt face="times new roman" lang=EN-US>result of such exercise.</font></p> <p style="TEXT-ALIGN:justify; MARGIN:0in 0in 0pt"><font style=FONT-SIZE:10pt face="times new roman" lang=EN-US>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;</font></p> <p style="TEXT-ALIGN:justify; MARGIN:0in 0in 0pt"><font style=FONT-SIZE:10pt face="times new roman" lang=EN-US>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; RESTRICTED STOCK. Generally, a participant who has been awarded Restricted Stock will not realize taxable income at the time of the award, and the Company will not be entitled to a deduction at that time; provided, however, that the participant may elect to treat the value of the shares as income at the time of receipt (without regard to restrictions) by filing with the IRS (with a copy to the Company) an election under Section 83(b) of the Code no later than thirty (30) days after the issuance date. When the restrictions on the Restricted Stock lapse, the participant will have ordinary income and the Company will have a corresponding deduction. The measure of such income and deduction will be the fair market value of the shares at the time the restrictions lapse.</font></p> <p style="MARGIN:0in 0in 0pt">&nbsp;</p><a name=_aciFooter13> <div> <p style="TEXT-ALIGN:center; MARGIN:0in 0in 0pt" align=center><font style=FONT-SIZE:10pt face="Times New Roman" lang=EN-US>-12-</font></p> <p style="MARGIN:0in 0in 0pt">&nbsp;</p></div></div> <hr width=100% size=2 noshade align=center> <div style=PAGE-BREAK-BEFORE:always>&nbsp;</div> <p><a name=page_14></p> <div style="PADDING-LEFT:0%; PADDING-RIGHT:0%"><a name=_aciHeader14> <div> <p style="MARGIN:0in 0in 0pt">&nbsp;</p></div> <p style="TEXT-ALIGN:justify; MARGIN:0in 0in 0pt"><b><font style=FONT-SIZE:10pt face="times new roman" lang=EN-US>THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS THAT YOU VOTE FOR THE PROPOSAL TO APPROVE THE 2014 STOCK INCENTIVE PLAN.</font></b></p> <p style="TEXT-ALIGN:justify; MARGIN:0in 0in 0pt">&nbsp;</p> <p style="TEXT-ALIGN:justify; MARGIN:0in 0in 0pt">&nbsp;</p> <p style="TEXT-ALIGN:justify; MARGIN:0in 0in 0pt"><b><font style=FONT-SIZE:10pt face="times new roman" lang=EN-US>PROPOSAL NO. 3 RATIFICATION OF SELECTION OF INDEPENDENT CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM</font></b></p> <p style="TEXT-ALIGN:justify; MARGIN:0in 0in 0pt">&nbsp;</p> <p style="TEXT-ALIGN:justify; MARGIN:0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT:0.5in"><font style=FONT-SIZE:10pt face="Times New Roman" lang=EN-US>Under applicable law and the procedures adopted by the Company's Board of Directors, the Audit Committee of the Company's Board of Directors selects the Company's independent public accounting firm for each fiscal year.
