NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 

 
Note 1 — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, Nature of Operations and Use of Estimates
 
           Interim Reporting. While the information presented in the accompanying interim consolidated financial statements is unaudited, it includes all normal recurring adjustments, which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.  These interim consolidated financial statements follow the same accounting policies and methods of their application as the September 30, 2008 audited annual consolidated financial statements of Ecology Coatings, Inc. (“we”, “us”, the “Company” or “Ecology”).  It is suggested that these interim consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with our September 30, 2008 annual consolidated financial statements included in the Form 10-KSB we filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on December 23, 2008.
 
Our operating results for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2009 are not necessarily indicative of the results that can be expected for the year ending September 30, 2009 or for any other period.
 
      Going Concern. In connection with their audit report on our consolidated financial statements as of September 30, 2008, the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm expressed substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.  Continuance of our operations is dependent upon our ability to raise sufficient capital.  The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should we be unable to continue as a going concern.
 
Description of the Company.  We were originally incorporated on March 12, 1990 in California (“Ecology-CA”).  Our current entity was incorporated in Nevada on February 6, 2002 as OCIS Corp. (“OCIS”).  OCIS completed a merger with Ecology-CA on July 26, 2007 (the “Merger”). In the Merger, OCIS changed its name from OCIS Corporation to Ecology Coatings, Inc.  We develop nanotechnology-enabled, ultra-violet curable coatings that are designed to drive efficiencies and clean processes in manufacturing.  We create proprietary coatings with unique performance and environmental attributes by leveraging our platform of integrated nano-material technologies that reduce overall energy consumption and offer a marked decrease in drying time. Ecology’s markets consist of electronics, automotive and trucking, paper products and original equipment manufacturers (“OEMs”).
 
Principles of Consolidation.  The consolidated financial statements include all of our accounts and the accounts of our wholly owned subsidiary Ecology-CA.  All significant intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
 
Use of Estimates.  The preparation of 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 amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
 
Cash and Cash Equivalents.  We consider all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash and cash equivalents.
 
Revenue Recognition.  Revenues from licensing contracts are recorded ratably over the life of the contract.  Contingency earnings such as royalty fees are recorded when the amount can reasonably be determined and collection is likely.
 
Loss Per Share.  Basic loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period.  Diluted loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock and potentially dilutive securities outstanding during the period.  Potentially dilutive shares consist of the incremental common shares issuable upon the exercise of stock options and warrants and the conversion of convertible debt and convertible preferred stock. Potentially dilutive shares are excluded from the weighted average number of shares if their effect is anti-dilutive.  We had a net loss for all periods presented herein; therefore, none of the stock options and/or warrants outstanding or stock associated with the convertible debt or with the convertible preferred shares during each of the periods presented were included in the computation of diluted loss per share as they were anti-dilutive.  As of June 30, 2009 and 2008, there were 19,109,588 and 5,333,441 potentially dilutive shares outstanding.
 
Income Taxes and Deferred Income Taxes.  We use the asset and liability approach for financial accounting and reporting for income taxes.  Deferred income taxes are provided for temporary differences in the bases of assets and liabilities as reported for financial statement purposes and income tax purposes and for the future use of net operating losses.  We have recorded a valuation allowance against the net deferred income tax asset.  The valuation allowance reduces deferred income tax assets to an amount that represents management’s best estimate of the amount of such deferred income tax assets that more likely than not will be realized.  We cannot be assured of future income to realize the net deferred income tax asset; therefore, no deferred income tax asset has been recorded in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.
 
Effective January 1, 2007, we adopted the provisions of FASB Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes” (“FIN 48”). FIN 48 was issued to clarify the requirements of SFAS109 relating to the recognition of income tax benefits. As of June 30, 3009, we had no unrecognized tax benefits due to uncertain tax positions.
 
Property and Equipment.  Property and equipment is stated at cost less accumulated depreciation.  Depreciation is recorded using the straight-line method over the following useful lives:
         
Computer equipment
  
3-10 years
Furniture and fixtures
  
3-7 years
Test equipment
  
5-7 years
Software Computer
  
3 years
Marketing and Promotional Video
  
3 years
 
Repairs and maintenance costs are charged to operations as incurred. Betterments or renewals are capitalized as incurred.
 
We review long lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable.  Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to the future net cash flows expected to be generated by the asset.  If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets.
 
Patents.  It is our policy to capitalize costs associated with securing a patent.  Costs consist of legal and filing fees.  Once a patent is issued, it will be amortized on a straight-line basis over its estimated useful life.  Seven patents were issued as of June 30, 2009 and are being amortized over 8 years.
 
Stock-Based Compensation.  Our stock option plans are subject to the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 123(R), Share-Based Payment. Under the provisions of SFAS No. 123(R), employee and director stock-based compensation expense is measured utilizing the fair-value method.
 
We account for stock options granted to non-employees under SFAS No. 123(R) using EITF 96-18, requiring the measurement and recognition of stock-based compensation to consultants under the fair-value method with stock-based compensation expense being charged to earnings on the earlier of the date services are performed or a performance commitment exists.
 
Expense Categories.  Salaries and Fringe Benefits of $301,700 and $444,920 for the three months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively, and $1,105,546 and $1,519,705 for the nine months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively, include wages paid to and insurance benefits for our officers and employees as well as stock based compensation expense for those individuals.  Professional fees of $322,032 and $758,691 for the three months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, and $2,806,104 and $2,245,674 for the nine months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively, include amounts paid to attorneys, accountants, and consultants, as well as the stock based compensation expense for those services.
 
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
 
In June 2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 166, Accounting for Transfers of Financial Assets, as amendment to SFAS No. 140 (SFAS166). SFAS 166 eliminates the concept of a “qualifying special-purpose entity,” changes the requirements for derecognizing financial assets, and requires additional disclosures in order to enhance information reported to users of financial statements by providing greater transparency about transfers of financial assets, including securitization transactions, and an entity’s continuing involvement in and exposure to the risks related to transferred financial assets. SFAS 166 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2009. We will adopt SFAS 166 in fiscal 2010 as applicable. It would not have had any impact on any of the financial statements that we’ve issued to date.

In June 2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 167, “Amendments to FASB Interpretation No. 46(R),” (SFAS 167). SFAS 167 amends FASB Interpretation No. 46 (Revised December 2003), “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities—an interpretation of ARB No. 51,” (FIN 46(R)) to require an enterprise to perform an analysis to determine whether the enterprise’s variable interest or interests give it a controlling financial interest in a variable interest entity; to require ongoing reassessments of whether an enterprise is the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity; to eliminate the quantitative approach previously required for determining the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity; to add an additional reconsideration event for determining whether an entity is a variable interest entity when any changes in facts and circumstances occur such that holders of the equity investment at risk, as a group, lose the power from voting rights or similar rights of those investments to direct the activities of the entity that most significantly impact the entity’s economic performance; and to require enhanced disclosures that will provide users of financial statements with more transparent information about an enterprise’s involvement in a variable interest entity. SFAS 167 becomes effective on January 1, 2010. We do not anticipate SFAS 167 will have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements upon adoption.

FASB Statement No. 168, The FASB Accounting Standards Codification TM and the Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles—a replacement of FASB Statement No. 162 (“SFAS 168”).  The FASB Accounting Standards CodificationTM (“Codification”) will become the source of authoritative U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) recognized by the FASB to be applied by nongovernmental entities. Rules and interpretive releases of the SEC under authority of federal securities laws are also sources of authoritative GAAP for SEC registrants. On the effective date of SFAS 168, the Codification will supersede all then-existing non-SEC accounting and reporting standards. All other non-grandfathered non-SEC accounting literature not included in the Codification will become non-authoritative.  SFAS 168 becomes effective for us for the period ending after September 15, 2009.  We have determined that the adoption of SFAS 168 will not have an impact on our financial statements.
 
Note 2 — Concentrations
 
For the three months and nine months ended June 30, 2009, we had no revenues. For the three months and nine months ended June 30, 2008, we had one customer representing 100% of revenues.  As of June 30, 2009 and 2008, there were no amounts due from this customer.
 
We occasionally maintain bank account balances in excess of the federally insurable amount of $250,000.  The Company had cash deposits in excess of this limit on June 30, 2009 and September 30, 2008 of $0 and $724,276, respectively.

George Resta Note:  Convertible subordinated note payable, 25% per annum, unsecured, principal and interest was due June 30, 2008; the Company extended the maturity for 30 days, to July 30, 2008 in exchange for warrants to purchase 15,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at $1.75 per share. Additionally, the Company granted the note holder warrants to purchase 12,500 shares of the Company’s common stock at $1.75 per share. All outstanding principal and interest is convertible, at the note holder’s option, into the Company’s common shares at the lower of the closing price of the shares on the last trading date prior to conversion or at the average share price at which the Company sells its debt or equity securities in its next public offering or other private offering made pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. Demand for repayment was made on September 8, 2008. On November 14, 2008, we agreed to pay the note holder $10,000 per month until the principal and accrued interest is paid off. We made such payments in October and November of 2008, but did not make payments thereafter. Accrued interest of $6,388 and $7,329 was outstanding as of June 30, 2009 and September 30, 2008, respectively.

Reverse Merger.  A reverse merger with OCIS Corporation was consummated on July 26, 2007.  The shareholders of Ecology-CA acquired 95% of the voting stock of OCIS.

On August 28, 2008, we entered into an agreement with Equity 11 to issue up to $5,000,000 in convertible preferred securities.  The securities accrue cumulative dividends at 5% per annum and the entire amount then outstanding is convertible at the option of the investor into shares of our common stock at $.50 per share.  The preferred securities carry “as converted” voting rights.  As of June 30, 2009, we had issued 2,436 of these convertible preferred shares.  As we sell additional convertible preferred securities under this agreement, we will issue attached warrants (500 warrants for each $1,000 convertible preferred share sold).  The warrants will be immediately exercisable, expire in five years, and entitle the investor to purchase one share of our common stock at $.75 per share for each warrant issued.  The table above identifies warrants issued in conjunction with Equity 11’s additional purchases of our 5% convertible preferred stock through June 30, 2009.
 
On May 15, 2009, we entered into an agreement with Equity 11 to issue convertible preferred securities at $1,000 per share. The securities accrue cumulative dividends at 5% per annum and the entire amount then outstanding is convertible at the option of the investor into shares of our common stock at a price equal to 20% of the average closing price of our common shares for the five trading days immediately preceding the date of issuance. The preferred securities carry “as converted” voting rights.  As of June 30, 2009, we have issued 364 of these convertible preferred securities. These shares are convertible into 4,427,778 of our common shares at the sole discretion of Equity 11.
 
In the event of a voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up, Equity 11 will be entitled to be paid a liquidation preference equal to the stated value of the convertible preferred shares, plus accrued and unpaid dividends and any other payments that may be due on such shares, before any distribution of assets may be made to holders of capital stock ranking junior to the preferred shares.
 
Note 7 — Stock Options
 
Stock Option Plan.  On May 9, 2007, we adopted a stock option plan and reserved 4,500,000 shares for the issuance of stock options or for awards of restricted stock.

2,408,119 of the options were exercisable as of June 30, 2009.  The options are subject to various vesting periods between June 26, 2007 and January 1, 2012.   The options expire on various dates between June 1, 2016 and January 1, 2022. Additionally, the options had no intrinsic value as of June 30, 2009.  Intrinsic value arises when the exercise price is lower than the trading price on the date of grant.
 
Our stock option plans are subject to the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) Number 123(R), Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation.  Under the provisions of SFAS Number 123(R), employee and director stock-based compensation expense is measured utilizing the fair-value method.
 
We account for stock options granted to non-employees under SFAS Number 123(R) using EITF 96-18 requiring the measurement and recognition of stock-based compensation to consultants under the fair-value method with stock-based compensation expense being charged to earnings on the earlier of the date services are performed or a performance commitment exists.
 
In calculating the compensation related to employee/consultants and directors stock option grants, the fair value of each option is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model and the following weighted average assumptions:
   
Dividend
None
Expected volatility

The expected volatility was derived utilizing the price history of another publicly traded nanotechnology company.  This company was selected due to the fact that it is widely traded and is in the same equity sector as our Company.
 
The risk free interest rate figures shown above contain the range of such figures used in the Black-Scholes calculation.  The specific rate used was dependent upon the date of the option grant.
 
Based upon the above assumptions and the weighted average $1.26 exercise price, the options outstanding at June 30, 2009 had a total unrecognized compensation cost of $579,542 which will be recognized over the remaining weighted average vesting period of .5 years. Options cost of $2,866,915 was recorded as an expense for the nine months ended June 30, 2009 of which $561,555 was recorded as compensation expense and $2,305,360 was recorded as consulting expense.

 
Note 8 — Going Concern
 
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business.  For the nine months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, we incurred net losses of ($4,373,576) and ($5,552,432), respectively.  As of June 30, 2009 and September 30, 2008, we had stockholders’ deficits of ($1,975,856) and ($1,239,810), respectively.
 
Our continuation as a going concern is dependent upon our ability to generate sufficient cash flow to meet our obligations on a timely basis, to obtain additional financing or refinancing as may be required, to develop commercially viable products and processes, and ultimately to establish profitable operations.  We have financed operations primarily through the issuance of equity securities and debt and through some limited operating revenues.  Until we are able to generate positive operating cash flows, additional funds will be required to support our operations.  We will need to acquire additional immediate funding in September 2009 to continue our operations.  The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should we be unable to continue as a going concern.
 
Note 9 — Subsequent Events

 The Company evaluated subsequent events for potential recognition and/or disclosure through August 19, 2009, the date the consolidated financial statements were issued.

On July 1, 2009, we issued a note to JB Smith LC, an entity controlled by J.B. Smith, a director of the company. This note is in the amount of $7,716, bears interest at 5% and is convertible under certain conditions.

On July 21, 2009, we entered into a Settlement and Release Agreement with DMG Advisors, LLC, Kirk Blosch and Jeff Holmes which terminated the parties’ July 26, 2007 Consulting Agreement (“Former Consulting Agreement”).  We agreed to issue 500,000 shares of our common stock as payment for services owed under the Former Consulting Agreement.

Only July 21, 2009, we entered into a new Consulting Agreement with DMG Advisors.  DMG Advisors will provide investor, business and financial services to us under the New Consulting Agreement and will be paid $5,000 per month for services by the issuance of 25,000 shares of the our common stock per month.  The Agreement has a term of six months and terminates on January 15, 2010.

On July 24, 2009, Equity 11 purchased an additional 75 shares of 5% Convertible Preferred Shares, Series B at a purchase price of $1,000 per share pursuant to Convertible Preferred Securities Purchase Agreement entered into between  the Company and Equity 11on May 15, 2009.  The Convertible Preferred Shares will pay cumulative cash distributions initially at a rate of 5% per annum, subject to declaration by the Board.

We develop nano-enabled, ultra-violet curable coatings that are designed to drive efficiencies and clean processes in manufacturing.  We create proprietary coatings with unique performance attributes by leveraging our platform of integrated nano-material technologies.  Our goal is to collaborate with industry leaders to develop high-value, high-performance coatings for applications in the specialty paper, automotive, general industrial, electronic and medical areas.  Our target markets include the electronics, steel, construction, automotive and trucking, paper products and OEMs.  We plan to use direct sales teams in certain target markets, such as OEMs, and third party distributors in broad product markets, such as paper products, to develop our product sales.
 
Operating Results
 
Nine months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008
 
Revenues.  Our revenues for the nine months ended June 30, 2008 were $24,884 and derived from our licensing agreement with Red Spot.  These revenues stem from the amortization of the initial payment of $125,000 by Red Spot to us in May 2005 and not from any subsequent transactions.  We generated no revenues for the nine months ended June 30, 2009.
 
Salaries and Fringe Benefits.  The decrease of approximately $414,000 in such expenses for the nine months ended June 30, 2009 compared to the nine months ended June 30, 2008 is the result of the elimination of two salaried employees prior to October 1, 2008, the elimination of a third employee in March 2009, the reduction of the salary of one employee effective October 1, 2008, and the reduction of  the salaries of three employees in December 2008.  These reductions were partially offset by the expense associated with options issued to two employees in September 2008 and December 2008 as well as the addition of a new employee in September 2008.
 
Professional Fees.  The increase of approximately $560,000 in these expenses for the nine months ended June 30, 2009 compared to the nine months ended June 30, 2008 is the result of the issuance of 2,000,000 options to Trimax in November 2008.  These options vested upon issuance, so the entire charge of $1,368,000 was recognized in that month. This expense was offset by a reduction of approximately $808,000 in fees and options paid or awarded to consultants for a variety of services. Three such consultants are no longer under agreement with us and two others have reduced their ongoing fees to us.
 
Other General and Administrative.  The decrease of approximately $317,000 in these expenses for the nine months ended June 30, 2009 compared to the nine months ended June 30, 2008 reflects reductions in legal fees relating to SEC filings, in-sourcing the work of preparing SEC filings, the elimination of debt extension fees, and the reduction of travel and travel-related expenses.
 
Operating Losses.  The increased loss between the reporting periods is explained by the increases in the expense categories discussed above and the decrease in revenue over the periods.
 
Interest Expense. The decrease of approximately $1,039,000 for the nine months ended June 30, 2009 compared to the nine months ended June 30, 2008 is the result of the expensing of the value of detachable warrants issued with bridge notes in the earlier period partially offset by the revaluing of previously issued detachable warrants and an increase of approximately $700,000 in average outstanding debt for the 2008 period.
 
Income Tax Provision.  No provision for income tax benefit from net operating losses has been made for the nine months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008 as we have fully reserved the asset until realization is more reasonably assured.
 
Net Loss.  The decrease in the Net Loss of approximately $1,179,000 for the nine months ended June 30, 2009 compared to the nine months ended June 30, 2008, while more fully explained in the foregoing discussions of the various expense categories, is due primarily to reductions of approximately $1,039,000 in Interest Expense, $808,000 in certain professional fees, $317,000 in Other General and Administrative expenses, and $414,000 in Salaries and Fringe Benefits, partially offset by the expensing of a grant of 2,000,000 options awarded to a consultant in November 2008 and the fact that we recognized no revenue in the 2009 period.
 
Basic and Diluted Loss per Share. The change in basic and diluted net loss per share for the nine months ended June 30, 2009 compared with the nine months ended June 30, 2008 reflects the decreased Net Loss discussed above.
 
Three Months Ended June 30, 2009 and 2008
 
Revenues.  For the three months ended June 30, 2008, revenues were $4,050 and derived from our licensing agreement with Red Spot.  These revenues stem from the amortization of the initial payment of $125,000 by Red Spot to us in May 2005 and not from any subsequent transactions.  We generated no revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2009.
 
Salaries and Fringe Benefits.  The decrease of approximately $143,000 in salaries and fringe benefits  for the three months ended June 30, 2009 compared to the three months ended June, 2008 is the result of a net reduction of two employees as well as salary reductions for remaining employees.
 
Professional Fees.  The decrease of approximately $437,000 in for the three months ended June 30, 2009 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2008 is the result of the reduction in the use of consultants in the 2009 period.
 
Other General and Administrative.  The decrease of approximately $48,000 in these expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2009 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2008 reflects reductions in legal fees relating to SEC filings, in-sourcing the work of preparing SEC filings, the elimination of debt extension fees, and the reduction of travel and travel-related expenses.
 
Operating Losses.  The approximately $623,000 decrease in operating loss between the reporting periods is explained by decreases in the expense categories discussed above.
 
Interest Expense. The decrease of approximately $917,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2009 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2008 is the result of the expensing of the value of detachable warrants issued with bridge notes in the earlier period partially offset by the revaluing of previously issued detachable warrants and an increase of approximately $700,000 in average outstanding debt for the 2008 period.
 
Income Tax Provision.  No provision for income tax benefit from net operating losses has been made for the three months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008 as we have fully reserved the asset until realization is more reasonably assured.
 
Net Loss.  The decrease in the Net Loss of approximately $1,490,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2009 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2008, is explained in the foregoing discussions of the various expense categories.
 
Basic and Diluted Loss per Share. The change in basic and diluted net loss per share for the three months ended June 30, 2009 compared with the same period ending June 30, 2008 reflects the decreased Net Loss discussed above.
 
Liquidity and Capital Resources
 
Cash and cash equivalents as of June 30, 2009 and September 30, 2008 totaled $4,257 and $974,276, respectively.  The decrease reflects cash used in operations of $1,321,329, cash used to purchase fixed and intangible assets of $47,889, and cash used to pay down debt of $372,801.  This decrease was partially offset by borrowings of $61,000 and the issuance of $711,000 in convertible preferred stock.
 
We are a company that has failed to generate significant revenues as yet and have incurred an accumulated deficit of ($21,043,440).  We have incurred losses primarily as a result of general and administrative expenses, salaries and benefits, professional fees, and interest expense.  Since our inception, we have generated very little revenue.  We have received a report from our independent auditors that includes an explanatory paragraph describing their substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.
 
We expect to continue using substantial amounts of cash to: (i) develop and protect our intellectual property; (ii) further develop and commercialize our products; (iii) fund ongoing salaries, professional fees, and general administrative expenses.  Our cash requirements may vary materially from those now planned depending on numerous factors, including the status of our marketing efforts, our business development activities, the results of future research and development, competition and our ability to generate revenue .
 
Historically, we have financed operations primarily through the issuance of debt and the sale of equity securities.  In the near future, as additional capital is needed, we expect to rely primarily on the sale of convertible preferred securities.
 
As of June 30, 2009, we had notes payable to three separate parties on which we owed approximately $695,648 in principal and accrued interest.  These notes do not contain any restrictive covenants with respect to the issuance of additional debt or equity securities by the Company.  Notes and the accrued interest totaling $695,648 owing to three note holders were due prior to September 30, 2008 and their holders demanded payment.  We have paid $320,000 in principal and accrued interest against the remaining principal and interest balance on two of these notes.  We have not made any payment to the third note holder to whom we owed approximately $313,000 in principal and accrued interest as of June 30, 2009.  Additionally, we have notes owing to shareholders totaling approximately $272,500 including accrued interest as of June 30, 2009.  These notes are due and payable on December 31, 2009. None of the debt is subject to restrictive covenants.  All of the debt is unsecured.
 
On six separate occasions beginning April 14, 2009 and concluding June 26, 2009, Equity 11 purchased a total of 194 convertible preferred shares at $1,000 per share.  On May 15, 2009, we issued 225 convertible preferred shares to Equity 11 and various related entities in settlement of amounts then owing to the parties involved. On June 1, we issued 55 convertible preferred shares to Equity 11 in lieu of dividends owed. This brought their total holdings of such shares to 2,800.  We will need to raise immediate additional funds in September 2009 to continue our operations. At present, we do not have any binding commitments for additional financing.  If we are unable to obtain additional financing, we would seek to negotiate with other parties for debt or equity financing, pursue additional bridge financing, and negotiate with creditors for a reduction and/or extension of debt and other obligations through the issuance of stock.  At this point, we cannot assess the likelihood of achieving these objectives.  If we are unable to achieve these objectives, we would be forced to cease our business, sell all or part of our assets, and/or seek protection under applicable bankruptcy laws.
 
On June 30, 2009, we had 32,233,600 common shares issued and outstanding and 2,800 in convertible preferred shares issued and outstanding.  These preferred shares and accumulated and unpaid dividends can be converted into a total of 9,299,778 shares of our common stock.  As of June 30, 2009, options and warrants to purchase up to 8,800,619 shares of common stock had been granted.  Additionally, approximately $695,648 of our notes and accrued interest could be converted into a total of 1,003,191 shares of common stock under if we undertake a private or public new stock offering which results in the proceeds of at least $1,000,000.           
 
 
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
 
See Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements in this Form 10-Q beginning on page 1. The details of such arrangements are found in Note 5 – Commitments and Contingencies and Note 9 – Subsequent Events.
 
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
 
Our financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles. Preparation of the statements in accordance with these principles requires that we make estimates, using available data and our judgment, for such things as valuing assets, accruing liabilities and estimating expenses.  The following is a discussion of what we feel are the most critical estimates that we must make when preparing our financial statements.
 
Revenue Recognition.  Revenues from licensing contracts are recorded ratably over the life of the contract. Contingency earnings such as royalty fees are recorded when the amount can reasonably be determined and collection is likely.
 
Income Taxes and Deferred Income Taxes.  We use the asset and liability approach for financial accounting and reporting for income taxes.  Deferred income taxes are provided for temporary differences in the bases of assets and liabilities as reported for financial statement purposes and income tax purposes and for the future use of net operating losses.  We have recorded a valuation allowance against our net deferred income tax asset.  The valuation allowance reduces deferred income tax assets to an amount that represents management’s best estimate of the amount of such deferred income tax assets that more likely than not will be realized.
 
Property and Equipment.  Property and equipment is stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is recorded using the straight-line method over the following useful lives:
 
Computer equipment
3-10 years
Furniture and fixtures
3-7 years
Test equipment
5-7 years
Software
3 years
 
Repairs and maintenance costs are charged to operations as incurred.  Betterments or renewals are capitalized as incurred.
 
We review long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable.  Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset with future net cash flows expected to be generated by the asset.  If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets.
 
Patents.  It is our policy to capitalize costs associated with securing a patent. Costs consist of legal and filing fees.  Once a patent is issued, it is amortized on a straight-line basis over its estimated useful life.  For purposes of the preparation of the unaudited, consolidated financial statements found elsewhere in this Form 10-Q, we have recorded amortization expense associated with the patents based on an eight year useful life.
 
Stock-Based Compensation.  We have a stock incentive plan that provides for the issuance of stock options, restricted stock and other awards to employees and service providers.  We calculate compensation expense under SFAS 123(R) using a Black-Scholes option pricing model.  In so doing, we estimate certain key assumptions used in the model.  We believe the estimates we use, which are presented in Note 7 of Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements, are appropriate and reasonable.
 
Recent Accounting Pronouncements

See Note 1 to our Financial Statements for the discussion about recent accounting pronouncements.

Item 3.  Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

We do not currently hold any financial instruments to which this requirement applies.

Item 4.  Controls and Procedures
 
Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we have evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our  “disclosure controls and procedures,” as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15e promulgated under the Exchange Act.  Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by this Form 10-Q.
 
Management is aware that there is a lack of segregation of certain duties at the Company due to the small number of employees with responsibility for general administrative and financial matters.  This constitutes a deficiency in financial reporting.  Because of this, we made changes to certain of our internal controls, specifically those pertaining to the control of cash, credit card expenditures and the calculation of options expenses.  These changes have been in effect since December 31, 2008.  Our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer are satisfied that these changes have satisfactorily addressed areas of risk identified in our assessment of our internal and disclosure controls for the three months ended June 30, 2009.
 
We have previously noted errors in calculating expense associated with stock options.  Those errors were found in the calculations for the Black-Scholes option-pricing model for the quarter ended March 31, 2009.  In a post-closing adjustment, we recognized an additional $74,243 in stock options expense.  We have taken steps to ensure in the future that the multiple calculations involving the Black-Scholes option-pricing model are reviewed several times for accuracy and completeness.

Our financial data in our accounting software (QuickBooks) became corrupted and unusable in late July 2009. The backup system for our network computer system failed to backup the data.  An outside IT technical vendor was also unable to restore the file to working order.  Since the file could not be restored, we manually recreated our financial data back to the date of our most recent backup data file (November 20, 2008).  Due to the significant efforts incurred in recreating the data, we filed a Form 12b-25 with the SEC to extend the filing date for this Form 10-Q for five calendar days.  As a result of this failure, we have modified the backup procedures for our financial data.  Our CFO is manually backing up the financial data to CD disks on a weekly basis.  We have also undertaken tests to ensure the network backup system is working and have scheduled periodic testing to ensure continued network backup functionality.

During the three months ended June 30, 2009, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation required by paragraph (d) of Exchange Act Rules 13a-15 or 15d-15 that was conducted during the last fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
 
PART II – OTHER INFORMATION
 
 
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

On September 11, 2008, the Company filed a lawsuit against MDL Consulting Group, LLC and Andy Zweig in Oakland County Circuit Court, Pontiac, Michigan. The suit alleges breach of contract, fraud, tortious interference, and unjust enrichment in connection with the Company’s efforts to secure financing and seeks recovery of damages in excess of $25,000.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

 
Prospective and existing investors should carefully consider the following risk factors in evaluating our business.  The factors listed below represent certain important factors that we believe could cause our business results to differ from our forward looking statements.  These factors are not intended to represent a complete list of the general or specific risks that may affect us. It should be recognized that other risks may be significant, presently or in the future, and the risks set forth below may affect us to a greater extent than indicated.
 
Risks Related to the Company
 
We have generated minimal revenue and have a history of significant operating losses
 
We are a company that has failed to generate significant revenue as yet and we have an accumulated deficit of ($21,043,440) as of  June 30, 2009.  We have a limited operating history upon which investors may rely to evaluate our prospects.  Such prospects must be considered in light of the problems, expenses, delays and complications associated with a business that seeks to generate more significant revenue.  Our operating losses have resulted principally from costs incurred in connection with our capital raising efforts and becoming a public company through a merger, promotion of our products, and from salaries and general and administrative costs.  We have maintained minimal cash reserves since October 2008 and have relied solely on additional periodic investment from Equity 11.  Equity 11 is not committed to make any additional investments in us.  We will need to raise additional capital from Equity 11 or other investors in September 2009 in order to continue to fund our operations.
 
We have entered the emerging business of nanotechnology, which carries significant developmental
 
and commercial risk
 
We have expended in excess of $1,000,000 to develop our nanotechnology-enabled  and other products.  We expect to continue expending significant sums in pursuit of further development of our technology. Such research and development involves a high degree of risk with significant uncertainty as to whether a commercially viable product will result.

We expect to continue to generate operating losses and experience negative cash flow and it is uncertain whether we will achieve future profitability
 
We expect to continue to incur operating losses.  Our ability to commence revenue generating operations and achieve profitability will depend on our products functioning as intended, the market acceptance of our liquid nano-technology™ products and our capacity to develop, introduce and bring additional products to market.  We cannot be certain that we will ever generate significant sales or achieve profitability.  The extent of future losses and the time required to achieve profitability, if ever, cannot be predicted at this point.
 
Our auditors have expressed a going concern opinion
 
We have incurred losses, primarily as a result of our inception stage, general and administrative, and pre-production expenses and our limited amount of revenue.  Accordingly, we have received a report from our independent auditors that includes an explanatory paragraph describing their substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.
 
We will need additional financing in September 2009
 
Our cash requirements may vary materially from those now planned depending on numerous factors, including the status of our marketing efforts, our business development activities, and the results of future research and development and competition.  Our past capital raising activities have not been sufficient to fund our working and other capital requirements and we will need to raise additional funds through private or public financings in September 2009. Such financing could include equity financing, which may be dilutive to stockholders, or debt financing, which would likely restrict our ability to make acquisitions and borrow from other sources.  In addition, such securities may contain rights, preferences or privileges senior to those of the rights of our current shareholders.  During our last fiscal year ended September 30, 2008, we relied on short term debt financing, most of which carried a 25% interest rate, to fund our operations.  As of June 30, 2009, we were in default on approximately $695,648 in short term debt, including accrued interest, and raised only $825,000 from the issuance of a convertible note and the sale of convertible preferred shares during the nine months ended June 30, 2009.  Although on May 15, 2009, we entered into a Convertible Preferred Securities Agreement with Equity 11 under which Equity 11 may purchase additional shares of our preferred stock, we do not have any commitments for additional financing from Equity 11.  We have maintained minimal cash reserves since October 2008 and have relied solely on additional periodic investment from Equity 11.  Equity 11 is not committed to make any additional investments in us.  We will need to raise additional capital from Equity 11 or other investors in September 2009 in order to continue to fund our operations.  We cannot be certain that additional funds will be available on terms attractive to us or at all.  If adequate funds are not available, we may be required to curtail our pre-production, sales and research and development activities and/or otherwise materially reduce our operations.  Our inability to raise adequate funds will have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition and may force us to seek protection under the bankruptcy laws.
 
We are dependent on key personnel
 
Our success will be largely dependent upon the efforts of our executive officers.  The loss of the services of our executive officers could have a material adverse effect on our business and prospects.  We cannot be certain that we will be able to retain the services of such individuals in the future.  Our research and development efforts are dependent upon a single executive, Sally Ramsey, with whom we have entered into an employment agreement which expires on December 31, 2012.  Our success will be dependent upon our ability to hire and retain qualified technical, research, management, sales, marketing, operations, and financial personnel.  We will compete with other companies with greater financial and other resources for such personnel.  Although we have not to date experienced difficulty in attracting qualified personnel, we cannot be certain that we will be able to retain our present personnel or acquire additional qualified personnel as and when needed.  We do not have employment agreements with our Chief Executive Officer, Chief Operating Officer, General Counsel or CFO.
We Rely on Computer Systems for Financial Reporting and other Operations and any Disruptions in Our Systems Would Adversely Affect Us.  We rely on computer systems to support our financial reporting capabilities and other operations. As with any computer systems, unforeseen issues may arise that could affect our ability to receive adequate, accurate and timely financial information, which in turn could inhibit effective and timely decisions. Furthermore, it is possible that our information systems could experience a complete or partial shutdown. If such a shutdown occurred, it could impact our ability to report our financial results in a timely manner or to otherwise operate our business.  In this regard, our financial data in our accounting software (QuickBooks) became corrupted and unusable in late July 2009 and the backup system for our computer systems failed to backup the data. This resulted in a delay in our ability to complete our financial statements for the June 30, 2009 quarter and to file our Form 10-Q with the SEC for such period. 
 
Risks Related to our Business
 
We are operating in both mature and developing markets, and there is uncertainty as to acceptance of our technology and products in these markets
 
We researched the markets for our products using our own personnel rather than third parties.  We have conducted limited test marketing and, thus, have relatively little information on which to estimate our levels of sales, the amount of revenue our planned operations will generate and our operating and other expenses.  We cannot be certain that we will be successful in our efforts to market our products or to develop our markets in the manner we contemplate.
 
Certain markets, such as electronics and specialty packaging, are developing and rapidly evolving and are characterized by an increasing number of market entrants who have developed or are developing a wide variety of products and technologies, a number of which offer certain of the features that our products offer.  Because of these factors, demand and market acceptance for new products are subject to a high level of uncertainty.  In mature markets, such as automotive or general industrial, we may encounter resistance by our potential customers in changing to our technology because of the capital investments they have made in their present production or manufacturing facilities.  Thus, we cannot be certain that our technology and products will become widely accepted. We do not know our future growth rate, if any, and size of these markets. If a substantial market fails to develop, develops more slowly than expected, becomes saturated with competitors or if our products do not achieve market acceptance, our business, operating results and financial condition will be materially adversely affected.
 
Our technology is also intended to be marketed and licensed to component or device manufacturers for inclusion in the products they market and sell as an embedded solution.  As with other new products and technologies designed to enhance or replace existing products or technologies or change product designs, these potential partners may be reluctant to adopt our coating solution into their production or manufacturing facilities unless our technology and products are proven to be both reliable and available at a competitive price and the cost-benefit analysis is favorable to the particular industry.  Even assuming acceptance of our technology, our potential customers may be required to redesign their production or manufacturing facilities to effectively use our Liquid Nanotechnology™ coatings.  The time and costs necessary for such redesign could delay or prevent market acceptance of our technology and products.  A lack of, or delay in, market acceptance of our Liquid Nanotechnology™ products would adversely affect our operations.  We do not know if we will be able to market our technology and products successfully or that any of our technology or products will be accepted in the marketplace.
 
We expect that our products will have a long sales cycle
 
One of our target markets is the OEM market. OEMs traditionally have substantial capital investments in their plant and equipment, including the coating portion of the production process.  In this market, the sale of our coating technology will be subject to budget constraints and resistance to change with respect to long-established production techniques and processes, which could result in a significant reduction or delay in our anticipated revenues.  We cannot assure investors that such customers will have the necessary funds to purchase our technology and products even though they may want to do so.  Further, even if such customers have the necessary funds, we may experience delays and relatively long sales cycles due to their internal-decision making policies and procedures and reticence to change.
 
Our target markets are characterized by new products and rapid technological change
 
The target markets for our products are characterized by rapidly changing technology and frequent new product introductions.  Our success will depend on our ability to enhance our planned technologies and products and to introduce new products and technologies to meet changing customer requirements.  We intend to devote significant resources toward the development of our Liquid Nanotechnology™ solutions.  We are not certain that we will successfully complete the development of these technologies and related products in a timely fashion or that our current or future products will satisfy the needs of the coatings market.   We do not know if technologies developed by others will adversely affect our competitive position or render our products or technologies non-competitive or obsolete.
 
There is a significant amount of competition in our market
 
The industrial coatings market is extremely competitive.  Competitive factors our products face include ease of use, quality, portability, versatility, reliability, accuracy, cost, switching costs and other factors.  Our primary competitors include companies with substantially greater financial, technological, marketing, personnel and research and development resources than we currently have.  There are direct competitors who have competitive technology and products for many of our products.  New companies will likely enter our markets in the future.  Although we believe that our products are distinguishable from those of our competitors on the basis of their technological features and functionality at an attractive value proposition, we may not be able to penetrate any of our anticipated competitors’ portions of the market.  Many of our anticipated competitors have existing relationships with manufacturers that may impede our ability to market our technology to potential customers and build market share.  We do not know that we will be able to compete successfully against currently anticipated or future competitors or that competitive pressures will not have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results and financial condition.
 
We have limited marketing capability
 
We have limited marketing capabilities and resources.  In order to achieve market penetration, we will have to undertake significant efforts and expenditures to create awareness of, and demand for, our technology and products.  Our ability to penetrate the market and build our customer base will be substantially dependent on our marketing efforts, including our ability to establish strategic marketing arrangements with OEMs and suppliers.  We cannot be certain that we will be able to enter into any such arrangements or if entered into that they will be successful.  Our failure to successfully develop our marketing capabilities, both internally and through third-party alliances, would have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results and financial condition.  Even if developed, such marketing capabilities may not lead to sales of our technologies and products.
 
We have limited manufacturing capacity
 
We have limited manufacturing capacity for our products.  In order to execute our contemplated direct sales strategy, we will need to either: (i) acquire existing manufacturing capacity; (ii) develop a manufacturing capacity “in-house” or (iii) identify suitable third parties with whom we can contract for the manufacture of our products.  To either acquire existing manufacturing capacity or to develop such capacity, significant capital or outsourcing will be required.   We may not be able to  raise the necessary capital to acquire existing manufacturing capacity or to develop such capacity.  Moreover, we have not identified potential third parties with whom we could contract for the manufacture of our coatings.  We cannot be certain that such arrangements, if consummated, would be suitable to meet our needs.
 
We are dependent on manufacturers and suppliers
 
We purchase, and intend to continue to purchase, all of the raw materials for our products from a limited number of manufacturers and suppliers.  The table below identifies raw materials suppliers we currently use:
 
Supplier
Raw Material
Nanoresins AG
Nano dispersion material
Cytec Industries, Inc.
Monomers & Oligomers
Sartomer Company, Inc.
Monomers & Oligomers
Rahn USA Corp.
Photoinitiators
Rockwood Specialties Group, Inc.
Pigments
 

 
We do not intend to directly manufacture any of the chemicals or other raw materials used in our products.  Our reliance on outside manufacturers and suppliers is expected to continue and involves several risks, including limited control over the availability of raw materials, delivery schedules, pricing and product quality.  We may experience delays, additional expenses and lost sales if we are required to locate and qualify alternative manufacturers and suppliers.
 
A few of the raw materials for our products are produced by a very small number of specialized manufacturers.  While we believe that there are alternative sources of supply, if, for any reason, we are precluded from obtaining such materials from such manufacturers, we may experience long delays in product delivery due to the difficulty and complexity involved in producing the required materials and we may also be required to pay higher costs for our materials.
 
We are uncertain of our ability to protect our technology through patents
 
Our ability to compete effectively will depend on our success in protecting our proprietary Liquid Nanotechnology™, both in the United States and abroad.  We have filed for patent protection in the United States and certain other countries to cover a number of aspects of our Liquid Nanotechnology™.  The U.S. Patent Office (“USPTO”) has issued seven patents to us.  We have five applications still pending before the USPTO and twenty-two patent applications pending in other countries, plus three pending ICT international patent applications.
 
We do not know if  any additional patents relating to our existing technology will be issued from the United States or any foreign patent offices, that we will receive any additional patents in the future based on our continued development of our technology, or that our patent protection within and/or outside of the United States will be sufficient to deter others, legally or otherwise, from developing or marketing competitive products utilizing our technologies.
 
We do not know if any of our current or future patents will be enforceable to prevent others from developing and marketing competitive products or methods.  If we bring an infringement action relating to any of our patents, it may require the diversion of substantial funds from our operations and may require management to expend efforts that might otherwise be devoted to our operations.  Furthermore, we may not be successful in enforcing our patent rights.
 
Further, patent infringement claims in the United States or in other countries will likely be asserted against us by competitors or others, and if asserted, that we may not be successful in defending against such claims.  If one of our products is adjudged to infringe patents of others with the likely consequence of a damage award, we may be enjoined from using and selling such product or be required to obtain a royalty-bearing license, if available on acceptable terms.  Alternatively, in the event a license is not offered, we might be required, if possible, to redesign those aspects of the product held to infringe so as to avoid infringement liability.  Any redesign efforts undertaken by us might be expensive, could delay the introduction or the re-introduction of our products into certain markets, or may be so significant as to be impractical.
 
We are uncertain of our ability to protect our proprietary technology and information
 
In addition to seeking patent protection, we rely on trade secrets, know-how and continuing technological advancement in special formulations to achieve and thereafter maintain a competitive advantage.  Although we have entered into confidentiality and employment agreements with some of our employees, consultants, certain potential customers and advisors, we cannot be certain that such agreements will be honored or that we will be able to effectively protect our rights to our unpatented trade secrets and know-how.  Moreover, others may independently develop substantially equivalent proprietary information and techniques or otherwise gain access to our trade secrets and know-how.
 
Risks related to our license arrangements
 
We have licensing agreements with DuPont and Red Spot Paint & Varnish regarding their use of our technology for specific formulations for designated applications.  The DuPont license provides multiple formulas for use on metal parts in the North American automotive market.  To date, this license has not generated any ongoing royalty payments.  We also have a licensing agreement with Red Spot that provides formulations for specific tank coatings. Such licenses are renewable provided the parties are in compliance with the agreements.  Although these licenses provide for royalties based upon net sales of our UV-cured coating formulations, it is unlikely that Red Spot or DuPont will aggressively market products with our coatings and thus entitle us to receive royalties at any level.
 
We have not completed our trademark registrations
 
We have received approval of “EZ Recoat™”, “Liquid Nanotechnology™”, “Ecology Coatings™” as trademarks in connection with our proposed business and marketing activities.  Although we intend to pursue the registration of our marks in the United States and other countries, prior registrations and/or uses of one or more of such marks, or a confusingly similar mark, may exist in one or more of such countries, in which case we might be precluded from registering and/or using such mark in certain countries.
 
There are economic and general risks relating to our business
 
The success of our activities is subject to risks inherent in business generally, including demand for products and services; general economic conditions; changes in taxes and tax laws; and changes in governmental regulations and policies.  For example, difficulties in obtaining credit and financing and the recent slowdown in the U.S. automotive industry have made it more difficult to market our technology to that industry.
 
Risks Related to our Common Stock
 
Our stock price has been volatile and the future market price for our common stock is likely to continue to be volatile. Further, the limited market for our shares may make it difficult for our investors to sell our common stock for a positive return on investment.
 
The public market for our common stock has historically been very volatile. During fiscal year 2008, our low and high market prices of our stock were $.51 per share (August 18, 2008) and $3.65 per share (January 7, 2008).  Any future market prices for our shares are likely to continue to be very volatile. This price volatility may make it more difficult for our shareholder to sell our shares when desired.  We do not know of any one particular factor that has caused volatility in our stock price.  However, the stock market in general has experienced price and volume fluctuations that have often been unrelated or disproportionate to the operating performance of listed companies.  Broad market factors and the investing public’s negative perception of our business may reduce our stock price, regardless of our operating performance. Further, the volume of our traded shares and the market for our common stock is very limited.  During the past fiscal year, there have been several days where no shares of our stock have traded.  A larger market for our shares may never develop or be maintained. Market fluctuations and volatility, as well as general economic, market and political conditions, could reduce our market price.  As a result, this may make it very difficult for our shareholder to sell our common stock.
 
Control by key stockholders
 
As of June 30, 2009, Richard D. Stromback, Douglas Stromback, Deanna Stromback, who are the brother and sister of Richard D. Stromback, respectively, Sally J.W. Ramsey, and Equity 11 held shares representing approximately 62.5% of the voting power of our outstanding capital stock. In addition, pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement we entered into with Equity 11 in August 2008, Equity 11 has the right to effectively control our Board of Directors with the right to appoint three of the five members of our Board of Directors.  Additionally, Equity 11 has the right to appoint our Chief Executive Officer.  The stock ownership and governance rights of such parties constitute effective voting control over all matters requiring stockholder approval.  These voting and other control rights mean that our other stockholders will have only limited rights to participate in our management.  The rights of our controlling stockholders may also have the effect of delaying or preventing a change in our control and may otherwise decrease the value of the shares and voting securities owned by other stockholders.

Our common stock is considered a “penny stock,” any investment in our shares is considered to be a high-risk investment and is subject to restrictions on marketability
 
Our common stock is considered a “penny stock” because it is traded on the OTC Bulletin Board and it trades for less than $5.00 per share. The Bulletin Board is generally regarded as a less efficient trading market than the NASDAQ Markets or the New York Stock Exchange.
 
The SEC has adopted rules that regulate broker-dealer practices in connection with transactions in “penny stocks.”  The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from those rules, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document prepared by the SEC, which specifies information about penny stocks and the nature and significance of risks of the penny stock market.  The broker-dealer also must provide the customer with bid and offer quotations for the penny stock, the compensation of the broker-dealer and any salesperson in the transaction, and monthly account statements indicating the market value of each penny stock held in the customer’s account.  In addition, the penny stock rules require that, prior to effecting a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from those rules, the broker-dealer must make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser’s written agreement to the transaction.  These disclosure requirements may have the effect of reducing the trading activity in the secondary market for our common stock.
 
Since our common stock will be subject to the regulations applicable to penny stocks, the market liquidity for our common stock could be adversely affected because the regulations on penny stocks could limit the ability of broker-dealers to sell our common stock and thus the ability of our shareholder to sell our common stock in the secondary market in the future.
 
We have never paid dividends and have no plans to do so in the future
 
To date, we have paid no cash dividends on our shares of common stock and we do not expect to pay cash dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future.  We intend to retain future earnings, if any, to provide funds for the operation of our business.  Our Securities Purchase Agreement with Equity 11 prevents the payment of any dividends to our common stockholders without the prior approval of Equity 11.
 
The issuance and exercise of additional options, warrants, and convertible securities may dilute the ownership interest of our stockholders
 
As of June 30, 2009, we had granted options to purchase 4,282,119 shares of our common stock under our 2007 Stock Option and Restricted Stock Plan (the “2007 Plan).  Under the Securities Purchase Agreement, Equity 11 purchased $2,357,000 in convertible preferred shares, potentially convertible into 4,714,000 shares of our common stock.  On December 1, 2008, we issued a dividend in lieu of cash to Equity 11 of 24 convertible preferred shares which are convertible into 48,000 shares of common stock.  On June 1, 2009, we issued a dividend in lieu of cash to Equity 11 of 55 convertible preferred shares which are convertible into 110,000 shares of our common stock.  The total potential number of common shares to be issued under the Securities Purchase Agreement assuming issuance and conversion of all of the convertible preferred shares issued under the Securities Purchase Agreement is 4,872,000.  As of June 30, 2009, we had issued warrants to purchase 4,518,500 shares of our common stock.  On May 15, 2009, we entered into a new Convertible Preferred Securities Agreement with Equity 11.  Shares purchased under this Agreement are convertible into our common shares at a price equal to twenty percent (20%) of the average closing price of our common stock for the five trading days immediately prior to purchase.  As of June 30, 2009, 364 of these preferred shares had been issued under this Agreement which are convertible into 4,427,778 of our common shares.  As of June 30, 2009, there was $695,648 outstanding in principal and accrued interest on notes held by Investment Hunter, LLC, George Resta and Mitchell Shaheen that can be converted into an estimated 1,009,191 shares of common stock under certain circumstances.  To the extent that our outstanding stock options and warrants are exercised and Convertible Preferred Shares are converted to common stock, dilution to the ownership interests of our stockholders will occur.
 
We have additional securities available for issuance, which, if issued, could adversely affect the rights of the holders of our common stock
 
Our Articles of Incorporation authorize the issuance of 90,000,000 shares of common stock and 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock.  The common stock and preferred stock can be issued by our Board of Directors without stockholder approval.  Any future issuances of our common stock or preferred stock could further dilute the percentage ownership of our existing stockholders.
 
Indemnification of officers and directors
 
Our Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws contain broad indemnification and liability limiting provisions regarding our officers, directors and employees, including the limitation of liability for certain violations of fiduciary duties.  In addition, we maintain Directors and Officers liability insurance.  Our shareholders will have only limited recourse against such directors and officers.
 

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of our company under Nevada law or otherwise, we have been advised that the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission is that such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and may, therefore, be unenforceable.

Sales of our stock by Equity 11 may drive the price of our stock down

Our common stock is “thinly” traded and has very low daily trading volume.  On some trading days, no shares of our stock are sold.  We have filed a registration statement on Form S-1 with the SEC that will allow Equity 11 to sell a portion of the shares of our common stock that it currently owns.  In addition, we may file additional registration statements for shares held by Equity 11 as SEC rules may permit.  Once registered, these shares may be sold on the OTC Bulletin Board.  Future sales of a substantial number of shares by Equity 11 will likely put a downward pressure on the price of our stock.

Short Selling may drive the price of our stock down

Short selling is the practice of selling securities that have been borrowed from a third party with the intention of buying identical securities back at a later date to return to the lender. The short seller hopes to profit from a decline in the value of the securities between the sale and the repurchase, as the seller will pay less to buy the assets than the seller received on selling them. Conversely, the short seller will make a loss if the price of the security rises.  The ability of Equity 11 to sell a substantial number of shares and the downward pressure on the price of our common stock that may result may encourage short selling of our common stock by third parties.  Such short selling will cause additional downward pressure on the price of our stock.
