We Have No Current Operations and We May Never Be Able to Acquire or Merge with an Operating Company.

As discussed herein the Company sold essentially all of its assets on May 9, 2008 and discontinued its operations, which was intended to improve the Company's balance sheet in order to make it more attractive for an acquisition of, or merger with, a more viable company. However, there can be no assurance that such an acquisition or merger will materialize.

The Company's Large Amount of Debt May Make it Difficult to Attract an Acquisition or Merger Candidate.

The Company has a considerable amount of secured and unsecured debt remaining on its balance sheet following the disposal of its assets. Such debt may make the Company unattractive to potential acquisition or merger candidates.

In Order to Facilitate an Acquisition or Merger the Company's Creditors May Have to Convert Some or All of Their Debt into Equity Thereby Substantially Diluting Current Shareholders.

Because the Company continues to carry a considerable amount of debt on its Balance sheet, and that such debt may make the Company unattractive to potential acquisition or merger candidates, it is likely that a further restructuring of the Company's balance sheet would be necessary in order to facilitate an acquisition or merger. Such a restructuring would likely include the conversion of some or all of the Company's debt into equity, which would lead to substantial dilution of existing shareholders.

Our Ability to Generate Revenues Depends on Our Ability to Acquire or Merge with an Operating Company.

If the Company is unable to acquire or merge with an operating company it will be unable to generate any revenues. Additionally, the inability to generate revenues will make it unlikely that the Company would be able to service or repay any of its debt or current liabilities.

We Depend Upon Our Key Personnel.

The Company is dependent on the efforts and abilities of certain of its senior management, particularly James Arabia, its Chief Executive Officer, to remain until an acquisition or merger has been accomplished. In light of the Company's cash position and balance sheet there can be no assurance that the Company could provide the necessary incentive for Mr. Arabia to remain.

We May Not Be Able To Continue As a Going Concern.

In their report accompanying the audit of our June 30, 2010 financial statements, our auditors expressed doubt as to our ability to continue as a going concern. Currently, the Company has no sales as a result of the disposition of its assets. Prior to the first quarter of fiscal year ending June 30, 2002, the Company was primarily engaged in research and development activities. Consequently, the Company has incurred recurring losses from previous operations. These factors, as well as the risks associated with the Company being able to consummate an acquisition of or merger with an operating business and raising capital through the issuance of equity and/or debt securities creates uncertainty as to the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.

The Company believes that capital raised, together with cash on hand, will be sufficient to fund the Company's operations, which, as a shell company, essentially consists of complying with reporting requirements as a public company. However, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to complete these efforts. To the extent that cash on hand along with proceeds from the capital raising efforts fall short or are insufficient to fund the Company's activities, we may not be able to continue as a going concern.

The Company's plan to address its going concern issues is to locate a viable operating business to acquire or merge with, however, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to consummate such a transaction, or if a transaction is completed that it would be on terms that are favorable to the then-shareholders.

An Acquisition or Merger Would Likely Require Significant Amounts of Additional Financing Which Could Result in Dilution to Investors; Additional Financing Could be Unavailable or Have Unfavorable Terms

If the Company were to enter into an acquisition or merger it is possible that a substantial amount of capital would be needed to consummate such a transaction. Such capital may be raised in a variety of ways including through equity and/or debt financings (including convertible debt). Any equity financings would likely result in substantial dilution to our then-existing stockholders. Sources of debt financing may result in higher interest expense. Any financing, if available, may be on terms unfavorable to us. If such capital raising efforts are unsuccessful, we may be unable to consummate an acquisition or merger. The Company's actual capital requirements for an acquisition or merger will depend on many factors, including, but not limited to, the financial strength of a particular acquisition or merger candidate and the need for capital to expand or grow their business.

Risk Factors Relating To Our Current Financing Arrangements:

We Are Delinquent In Payments To Our Unsecured Creditors And May Face Collection Actions As a Result.

The Company is delinquent with a number of unsecured creditors for which no payment arrangements exist or for which no agreement to forestall collection action has been agreed upon. At June 30, 2010 the Company has a litigation reserve totaling $125,102 which it maintains for legal and settlement costs associated with its restructuring efforts and for current litigation arising in the ordinary course of business. Notwithstanding the litigation reserve established, in the light of the Company's current financial condition, the Company's cash liability, if any, arising from legal proceedings, could have a material adverse affect on the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash flows. Unsecured creditors are comprised of a number of creditors owed amounts of less than $10,000. Whenever feasible the Company negotiates with these creditors to reach settlement agreements that are acceptable to the Company, however, if the Company is unable to reach acceptable settlement arrangements it may be subject to various collection actions.

We Have Secured Debt Obligations That are in Default

As of June 30, 2010, the Company was in payment default on the following secured notes; one senior secured note issued to Dutchess totaling $330,847.

The Company has no scheduled repayment arrangements in regard to any of the defaulted debt listed above. Because these creditors are secured by virtually all of the Company's assets, the Company could face action to have its assets foreclosed upon. Collection action by any secured creditor is governed by an Intercreditor Agreement, as amended, between such creditors, which requires a majority of senior creditors to approve of any collection action by any secured creditor(s) before such action is commenced (including an action to foreclose on the Company's assets). Although the Company believes that the majority of senior creditors will not agree to authorize collection action at this time, there can be no assurance that the senior creditors will not authorize certain collection actions. If collection actions are authorized and do commence, the assets of the Company could be foreclosed upon and the Company's ability to continue as a going concern would be severely limited.

The Company may need to negotiate debt for equity swaps with defaulted creditors, which could lead to the issuance of substantial amounts of common stock and substantial dilution of then-existing shareholders. There can be no assurance that any of the Company's secured creditors will accept equity in exchange for their debt. If the Company is unable to issue equity to retire much of its secured debt obligations, it may be very difficult to consummate an acquisition of or merger with an operating business or company.

Risk Factors Relating to Our Common Stock:

We Do Not Expect to Pay Dividends for Some Time, if At All.

No cash dividends have been paid on our common stock. We expect that any income received from operations will be devoted to our future operations. We do not expect to pay cash dividends in the foreseeable future. Payment of dividends would depend upon our profitability at the time, cash available for those dividends, and other factors.

The Public Market for Our Common Stock is Volatile and Limited.

Our common stock is currently quoted on the Over the Counter Bulletin Board under the ticker symbol NAWL. The market price of the Company's common stock has been, and is likely to continue to be, volatile. Factors such as announcement of an acquisition or merger, if any, announcements relating to strategic relationships, government regulatory actions, general conditions in overall market conditions and other unforeseen factors may have a significant impact on the market price of the common stock. In addition, in recent years the stock market for penny stocks in general, has experienced extreme price fluctuations. This volatility has had a substantial effect on the market prices of penny stock securities issued by many companies for reasons unrelated to the operating performance of the specific companies. These broad market fluctuations may adversely affect the market price of the Company's common stock.

- 5 -

In addition, the public float of the Company's common stock is small in comparison to total shares outstanding on a fully diluted basis, resulting in a very thin public market for the trading of the Company's shares. Limited trading volume entails a high degree of volatility in the stock price. In the 52-week period from July 1, 2009 to June 30, 2010, the closing price for the shares of the Company's stock on the OTC "Pink Sheets" ranged from $0.0001 to $0.0008 This situation of limited liquidity and volatile stock price will most likely continue for the near future.

Our Common Stock is Subject to the "Penny Stock" Rules of the SEC and the Trading Market in Our Securities is Limited, Which Makes Transactions In Our Stock Cumbersome and May Reduce the Value of an Investment in Our Stock.

The Securities and Exchange Commission has adopted Rule 15g-9 which establishes the definition of a "penny stock," for the purposes relevant to us, as any equity security that has a market price of less than $5.00 per share or with an exercise price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions. For any transaction involving a penny stock, unless exempt, the rules require:

*

that a broker or dealer approve a person's account for transactions in penny stocks; and

*

the broker or dealer receive from the investor a written agreement to the transaction, setting forth the identity and quantity of the penny stock to be purchased.

In order to approve a person's account for transactions in penny stocks, the broker or dealer must:

*

obtain financial information and investment experience objectives of the person; and

*

make a reasonable determination that the transactions in penny stocks are suitable for that person and the person has sufficient knowledge and experience in financial matters to be capable of evaluating the risks of transactions in penny stocks.

The broker or dealer must also deliver, prior to any transaction in a penny stock, a disclosure schedule prescribed by the Commission relating to the penny stock market, which, in highlight form:

*

sets forth the basis on which the broker or dealer made the suitability determination; and

*

that the broker or dealer received a signed, written agreement from the investor prior to the transaction.

Generally, brokers may be less willing to execute transactions in securities subject to the "penny stock" rules. This may make it more difficult for investors to dispose of our common stock and cause a decline in the market value of our stock.

Disclosure also has to be made about the risks of investing in penny stocks in both public offerings and in secondary trading and about the commissions payable to both the broker-dealer and the registered representative, current quotations for the securities and the rights and remedies available to an investor in cases of fraud in penny stock transactions. Finally, monthly statements have to be sent disclosing recent price information for the penny stock held in the account and information on the limited market in penny stocks.

Rule 144 Stock Sales

As of June 30, 2010, the Company had outstanding approximately 1,658,544,638 shares of common stock and 19,000,000 shares of Series A common stock as "restricted securities" which may be sold only in compliance with Rule 144 adopted under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended or other applicable exemptions from registration. The SEC recently adopted amendments to Rule 144 which became effective on February 15, 2008 and apply to securities acquired both before and after that date.  Under these amendments, a person who has beneficially owned restricted shares of our common stock for at least six months would be entitled to sell their securities provided that (i) such person is not deemed to have been one of our affiliates at the time of, or at any time during the three months preceding, a sale, (ii) we are subject to the Exchange Act reporting requirements for at least 90 days before the sale and (iii) if the sale occurs prior to satisfaction of a one-year holding period, we provide current information at the time of sale.

Persons who have beneficially owned restricted shares of our common stock or warrants for at least six months but who are our affiliates at the time of, or at any time during the three months preceding, a sale, would be subject to additional restrictions, by which such person would be entitled to sell within any three-month period only a number of securities that does not exceed the greater of:

·

1% of the total number of securities of the same class then outstanding; or

·

the average weekly trading volume of such securities during the four calendar weeks preceding the filing of a notice on Form 144 with respect to such sale.

provided, in each case, that we are subject to the Exchange Act periodic reporting requirements for at least three months before the sale.

Item 2.     PROPERTIES

Item 3.     LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

At June 30, 2010 the Company has a litigation reserve totaling $125,102 which it maintains for legal and settlement costs associated with its restructuring efforts and for litigation arising in the ordinary course of business. Notwithstanding the reserve established, in the light of the Company's current financial condition, the Company's cash liability, if any, arising from legal proceedings related to these matters, and others in which it is involved, could have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

 

Item 4.     SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS

None.

Item 7.     MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The Company intends to seek opportunities to acquire or merge with an operating company and is actively seeking such a transaction. However, there can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in locating an acquisition or merger candidate or that it will be able to consummate a transaction with a candidate over the next twelve months. The Company's ability to repay its debt and/or further restructure its balance sheet is highly dependent upon its success in identifying and transacting an acquisition or merger. Additionally, the Company believes that an acquisition or merger may require the raising of additional capital to facilitate such a transaction, however at this time the Company has no specific plans for raising additional capital as such needs, if any, are unknown at this time.

PLAN OF OPERATION

The Company has no ongoing operations and any plan of operations would be developed in conjunction with the transaction of an acquisition or merger of an operating company as yet unidentified.

EXPECTED CAPITAL REQUIREMENTS

Over the next twelve months the Company's capital requirements are unknown except in regard to monies needed to make its filings required by the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Company expects that Dutchess Advisors LLC ("Dutchess") will pay a third-party consultant fees for the preparation of such filings (which includes the expenses related to the filings) that will be adequate to cover the expenses related to continuing to report as a public company, however, there can be no assurance that Dutchess will be willing to provide such further funding.

EXPECTED RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT ACTIVITIES

None.

EXPECTED PURCHASES OR SALES OF PLANT AND SIGNIFICANT EQUIPMENT

None.

EXPECTED CHANGES IN NUMBER OF EMPLOYEES

The Company has 2 consultants/officers (a part-time CEO and part-time CFO) and does not expect to add any new employees over the next twelve months unless an acquisition or merger is completed within that time-frame.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

As discussed above, the Company did not engage in any significant business prior to April 17, 1995. During April 1995, the Company acquired Unified Technologies, Inc., a development stage business. Since that time, the Company had been developing various healthcare products until it discontinued operations in May of 2008 following the Asset Sale.

FISCAL YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, 2010 COMPARED TO THE CORRESPONDING PERIOD IN 2009.

The Company experienced net income of $102,718 for the twelve-month period ended June 30, 2010, compared with a net loss of $526,212 for the same period ended June 30, 2009. This represents an increase of $628,930 from the prior year. The increase in net income is primarily attributable to an increase in other income related to forgiveness of debt and to a decrease in interest expense.

Consulting fees totaled $9,061 for the year ended June 30, 2010, compared with $37,550 for the same period ending June 30, 2009. This represents a decrease of $28,489 from the prior year or 75.87%. General and administrative expenses incurred by the Company were $25,219 for the year ended June 30, 2010, compared with $50,240 for the same period ended June 30, 2009. This represents a decrease of $25,012 from the prior year due to reduced costs related to the Company's shell status.

- 9 -

FINANCIAL CONDITION, LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Pending an acquisition of or merger with another business or company, the Company anticipates that Dutchess will pay the necessary fees to third-party consultants in order to cover the expense of preparing the Company's required public filings, defend against creditor suits or actions and to reach settlements with creditors when advisable. There can be no assurance that Dutchess will pay such third-party fees and expenses, which, if not provided, could result in the Company being unable to continue as a going concern.

At June 30, 2010 and 2009, the Company had current assets of $0 and $79,888, respectively, including cash of $0 and $441. The report of the Company's independent auditors on the financial statements for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2010, includes an explanatory paragraph relating to the uncertainty of the Company's ability to continue as a going concern due to recurring losses and the risks associated with consummating a business acquisition or merger.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

 

To the Board of Directors of
Naturewell, Incorporated and Subsidiaries
(A Development Stage Company)

 

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Naturewell, Incorporated and subsidiaries (the "Company") as of June 30, 2010 and 2009 and the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in shareholders' equity and cash flows for the years then ended and for the period of May 13, 2008 to June 30, 2010. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Naturewell, Incorporated and subsidiaries as of June 30, 2010 and 2009, and the consolidated results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended and for the period of May 13, 2008 to June 30, 2010 in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note O to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has no operating business and has substantial amounts of debt that is in default as well as having a number of unpaid creditors. Without an operating business the Company has no revenue, cash flow or earnings available to meet its obligations. Those factors raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

NATUREWELL, INCORPORATED AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEARS ENDING JUNE 30, 2010 AND 2009

 

A.  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:

ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF CONSOLIDATION:

NatureWell, Inc., a California corporation ("NWI-CA") was originally incorporated on April 26, 1983 (through an earlier predecessor corporation). In August 1998, NWI-CA acquired the assets and technology of Amtech Scientific, Inc. ("ATS") of which the assets were contributed to a newly formed subsidiary of NWI-CA, DiagnosTech, Inc, a California corporation ("DTI"). In September 2001, NWI-CA formed a wholly owned subsidiary in Delaware, NatureWell, Incorporated. This wholly owned subsidiary was established for the sole purpose of reincorporating NWI-CA in Delaware. In October 2001, NWI-CA obtained approval from a vote of a majority of its shareholders to reincorporate in Delaware. On October 25, 2001, the merger of NWI-CA into NatureWell, Incorporated, a Delaware corporation ("NatureWell", "NWI" or the "Company") was consummated. NWI-CA has been "merged-out" and dissolved as a result of the reincorporation. The Company has two wholly owned subsidiaries, Unified Technologies, Inc., a California corporation ("UTI") and Chemical Dependency Healthcare of California, Inc., a California corporation ("CDHC"). Both UTI and CDHC are dormant and not engaged in any operating activities and there are no plans to engage in any activities in the future. The Company as of June 30, 2010 also holds a 91.9 percent (91.9%) ownership interest in Nasal Mist, Inc., a California corporation ("NMI"). NMI is also dormant and not engaged in any operating activities and there are no plans to engage in any activities in the future.

PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION:

The audited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries and present them as one economic entity. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation as of June 30, 2010 and 2009.

BASIS OF ACCOUNTING:

The Company's policy is to use the accrual method of accounting to prepare and present financial statements, which conforms to U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP').

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS:

In June 2009, the FASB issued guidance now codified as ASC 105, Generally Accepted Accounting Principles as the single source of authoritative accounting principles recognized by the FASB to be applied by nongovernmental entities in the preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP, aside from those issued by the SEC. ASC 105 does not change current U.S. GAAP, but is intended to simplify user access to all authoritative U.S. GAAP by providing all authoritative literature related to a particular topic in one place. The adoption of ASC 105 did not have a material impact on the Company's financial statements, but did eliminate all references to pre-codification standards.

The Company has implemented all new accounting pronouncements that are in effect and that may impact its financial statements and does not believe that there are any other new accounting pronouncements that have been issued that might have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations.

INCOME TAXES:

Income taxes are provided in accordance with ASC 740, Income Taxes. A deferred tax asset or liability is recorded for all temporary differences between financial and tax reporting and net operating loss carry forwards. Deferred tax expense (benefit) results from the net change during the year of deferred tax assets and liabilities.

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

USE OF ESTIMATES:

The preparation of the Company's audited financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the financial statement date and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates made by management.

- 16 -

B.  FORMATION OF SUBSIDIARIES:

NASAL MIST, INC.

The Company owns 91.9% of Nasal Mist ("NMI"), a subsidiary formed by the Company during August 1997, NMI is dormant and not engaged in any operating activities and there are no plans to engage in any activities in the future.

 

C.  INVENTORY:

As of June 30, 2010 and 2009 the Company has no inventory.

 

D.  BASIC EARNINGS (LOSS) PER SHARE:

The Company computes net income (loss) per share in accordance with ASC 260, Earnings per Share. ASC 260 specifies the computation, presentation and disclosure requirements for earnings (loss) per share for entities with publicly held common stock. Basic net earnings (loss) per share amounts are computed by dividing the net earnings (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings (loss) per share are the same as basic earnings (loss) per share due to the lack of dilutive items in the Company.

 

E.  WARRANTS, OPTIONS AND STOCK BASED COMPENSATION:

There are no warrants or options outstanding as of June 30, 2010 and 2009.

In May of 2004 the Company adopted its 2004 Incentive Stock Bonus and Option Plan (the "Plan"). The Plan is intended to advance the interests of the Company by affording to selected employees, directors and consultants, an opportunity for investment in the Company and the incentives inherent in stock ownership in the Company and to provide the Company with a means of attracting, compensating, and retaining the services of selected employees, directors and consultants. It initially allowed for the issuance of 10,000,000 shares of S-8 stock, subject to the board's authority to amend the Plan.

On December 21, 2005 the Plan was amended to allow for the issuance of up to 30,000,000 shares of S-8 stock. In addition to the shares authorized by the Plan, the Company may issue restricted shares, or securities that convert into restricted common stock (including convertible notes), to non-employees, employees, directors and consultants for services. Shares issued to non-employees, employees and directors in return for services are valued under the fair value method in accordance with SFAS 123. At June 30, 2010 18,642,742 shares were issued under the Plan.

Total compensation cost recognized in income for stock-based employee compensation was $0 and $0 (including officers) for the years ending June 30, 2010 and June 30, 2009, respectively.

 

F.  PREFERRED STOCK:

The Company has outstanding 75 shares of Series C Convertible Preferred Stock (the "Series C Preferred"). Each share of Series C Preferred has a $1,000 liquidation preference, and all 75 shares are owned by Dutchess Advisors LLC ("Dutchess"), the Company's largest senior secured creditor (see also Note H - "Loans Payable" and Note K - "Related Party Transactions"). Pursuant to the terms of the Certificate of Designation for the Series C Preferred, Dutchess is allowed to cast a vote on all matters that the Company's shareholders are permitted to vote upon, equal to 0.7% of all outstanding securities that are eligible to vote at the time of such shareholder action for each share of Series C Convertible Preferred that it owns (0.7% X 75 shares = 52.5% of total vote). Each share of Series C Preferred is convertible into 25,000 shares of the Company's common stock (1,875,000 total).

The Company has outstanding 3,115 shares of Series E Convertible Preferred Stock (the "Series E Preferred"). Each share of Series E Preferred has a $1,000 liquidation preference, and all 3,155 shares are owned by Dutchess Advisors LLC ("Dutchess"), the Company's largest senior secured creditor (see also Note H - "Loans Payable" and Note K - "Related Party Transactions"). Pursuant to the terms of the Certificate of Designation for the Series E Preferred, each share is convertible into 1,333 shares of common stock (which conversion price is not subject to adjustment due to a reverse split), provided however, in no event shall the Company permit such conversion, into that number of shares of common stock which, when added to number of shares of common stock already beneficially owned (as such term is defined under Section 13(d) and Rule 13d-3 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended), by the holder, would cause the holder's beneficial ownership of common stock to exceed 4.99% of the number of shares of common stock outstanding as of the conversion date for the shares of Series E Preferred that the holder seeks to convert. On any matter for which the shareholders of the Company are entitled to vote, each share of Series E Preferred shall be entitled to cast a number of votes equal to the number of whole shares of common stock into which such share of Series E Preferred could then be converted into.

- 17 -

G.  SERIES A COMMON STOCK

The Company has 20,000,000 authorized shares of Series A Common Stock of which 19,000,000 shares are issued and outstanding all of which are owned by Dutchess. Each share of Series A Common Stock shall entitle the holder to cast ten (10) votes for all matters presented to the shareholders for vote, and each share may be converted at the option of the holder into one share of regular Common Stock by surrendering to the Company the certificate or certificates evidencing the shares of Series A Common Stock to be converted together with a written request that the shares be so converted. Holders of regular Common Stock and Series A Common Stock shall vote together as a single class on all matters as to which holders of the class of common stock are entitled to vote, except as may be otherwise required by law.

At June 30, 2010, the 19,000,000 shares of Series A Common Stock were eligible to cast a vote equal to 7.2% of the eligible votes possessed by the common stock as a class (190,000,000 votes of an eligible 2,638,665,750 votes) and 3.41% of the eligible votes possessed by the common stock and preferred stock voting together (190,000,000 votes of an eligible 5,563,770,621).

The $300,000 note is secured by a lien on all of the Company's assets and is equal in rank with all other senior secured debt of the Company; and (ii) A senior secured note, face value $1,883,000, which accrues interest at the rate of eight percent (8%) per annum until maturity on January 1, 2011, at which time all principal and interest accrued thereon are due in full. The $1,883,000 note is secured by a lien on all of the Company's assets and is equal in rank with all other senior secured debt of the Company; and (iii) 3,115 restricted shares of the Company's Series E Convertible Preferred Stock (see also Note H - "Loans Payable" and Note J - "Notes Payable and Long Term Payables"). Two of the Company's three directors, Michael A. Novielli and Douglas H. Leighton, are also directors of Dutchess Private Equities Fund, Ltd.

The Agreement also contains a full mutual general release between the parties and each of their respective Affiliated Parties.

 

L.  COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Unsecured Creditors of the Company

The Company is in payment default on an unsecured note totaling $20,573, including interest thereon of $8,621 which accrues interest at the rate of 8% per annum. Whenever feasible, the Company negotiates with these creditors to reach settlement agreements that are acceptable to the Company, including agreements to swap equity for debt owed to these creditors. However, if the Company is unable to reach acceptable settlement arrangements it may be subject to various collection actions.

Litigation and Legal Proceedings

As of June 30, 2010, the Company maintains a litigation reserve of $125,102 for the payment of past due unsecured creditors for which it does not have a defined payment arrangement (including creditors whose debts were extinguished due to the statute of limitations expiring for such creditors to take legal action to collect their debt). Notwithstanding the litigation reserve established, in the light of the Company's current financial condition, the Company's cash liability, if any, arising from legal proceedings, could have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

M.  STOCK ISSUANCES:

For the year ended June 30, 2009 the Company issued 3,115 restricted shares of its Series E Convertible Preferred Stock to Dutchess Private Equities Fund, Ltd. (the Series E Preferred is described in Footnote F - "Preferred Stock") as part of a Settlement Agreement reached with Dutchess on January 26, 2009 (the Settlement is described in Footnote K - "Related Party Transactions").

For the year ended June 30, 2010 the Company made no stock issuances.

 

N.  INCOME TAXES:

As of June 30, 2010, the Company had net operating loss carry-forwards totaling approximately $26,629,764, before any limitations. The carry-forwards expire through 2027.

The realization of any future income tax benefits from the utilization of net operating losses may be severely limited. Federal and state tax laws contain complicated change of control provisions (generally when a more than 50 percent ownership change occurs within a three-year period), which, if triggered, could limit or eliminate the use of the Company's net operating loss carry-forwards.

 

O.  GOING CONCERN:

Currently the Company is a shell company as defined under Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act and has no operating business. The Company requires capital to comply with its reporting requirements under the Act and also has substantial amounts of debt that is in default as well as having a number of unpaid creditors. Without an operating business the Company has no revenue, cash flow or earnings available to meet its obligations. Consequently, the Company will likely need to raise additional capital to meet its reporting requirements and to defend, when necessary, against creditors that attempt to collect on their debt. These factors, as well as the risks associated with raising capital through the issuance of equity and/or debt securities creates uncertainty as to the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.

The Company's plan to address its going concern issues is to locate a viable operating business to acquire or merge with, however, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to consummate such a transaction, or that if a transaction is completed that it would be on terms that are favorable to the then-shareholders.

 

P.  OTHER INCOME/DEBT FORGIVENESS

For the period ending June 30, 2010 the Company had other income from the forgiveness of debt totaling $407,247. That amount is comprised of the elimination of four notes a follows: (i) two senior secured convertible notes totaling $184,045, including interest accrued thereon of $74,045, (ii) one senior secured note totaling $162,122, including interest accrued thereon of $87,122, and (iii) one subordinated secured note totaling $61,081, including interest accrued thereon of $22,263. Each of the four notes has been in payment default for in excess of three years and none of the holders of the four notes has ever initiated any collection action against the Company. The Company and the holders of the notes are parties to an intercreditor agreement, which governs the terms of all senior secured and subordinated secured debt (the "Intercreditor Agreement"). Pursuant to the Intercreditor Agreement: (a) the time-period that must elapse before the Company may plead any statute of limitations as a defense to any claim made by any Senior Lender or Subordinated Lender shall be two and one half (2/12) years, (b) any provision contained in any Senior Loan Document or any Subordinated Loan Document that waives or terminates the Company's right to plead any statute of limitations shall be null and void, and (c) all Senior Lenders and all Subordinated Lenders waive any right to plead or assert in any court of law that any statute of limitations is/was either waived, prevented from starting, tolled, interrupted or restarted for any reason. As such the Company has written off the notes as uncollectible due to the expiration of the statute of limitations provisions contained in the governing Intercreditor Agreement.

- 20 -

Q.  BAD DEBT EXPENSE

The Company recorded bad debt expense for the period ending June 30, 2010 in the amount of $83,470. This expense is related to notes receivable held by the Company (including interest of $8,470 accrued thereon) that consists of three notes each for $25,000, face value, issued to the Company in exchange for $75,000 in cash. All three notes are issued by Wine & Culinary Concepts, Inc. ("W&CC"). The first note is dated September 16, 2008 and accrues interest at the rate of ten percent (10%) per annum and was scheduled to mature on December 31, 2008 at which time all principal and interest accrued was due and payable. By agreement between the Company and W&CC the maturity on the first note was extended until December 31, 2009. The second note is dated December 11, 2008 and accrues interest at the rate of ten percent (10%) per annum until its scheduled maturity on December 31, 2009 at which time all principal and interest accrued thereon became due and payable. The third note is dated February 6, 2009 and accrues interest at the rate of ten percent (10%) per annum until its scheduled maturity on December 31, 2009 at which time all principal and interest accrued thereon became due and payable. None of the three notes were paid on their due date and the Company has unsuccessfully attempted to secure payment of the three notes. By letter dated February 10, 2010 the Company issued a Notice of Default to Wine & Culinary Concepts for the three notes. The Notice of Default makes demand for full and immediate payment of the three notes. The Company has not received any response from W&CC and at this time has determined that it is unlikely it will collect payment on the notes.

 

R.  SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

In accordance with ASC 855, Subsequent Events, the Company has evaluated subsequent events through October 13, 2010, the date of issuance of the June 30, 2010 audited consolidated financial statements. During this period, the Company did not have any material recognizable subsequent events.

Item 9.     CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE.

There have been no changes or disagreements with our accountants on accounting and financial disclosure.

 

Item 9A(T).     CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

(A) EVALUATION OF DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

We maintain a system of disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act")) that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our Securities and Exchange Commission reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and forms, and to ensure that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Management necessarily applied its judgment in assessing the costs and benefits of such controls and procedures, which, by their nature, can provide only reasonable assurance regarding management's control objectives.

Management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures, as of the end of the period covered by this Annual Report on Form 10-K. Based upon this evaluation, management concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the fiscal year.

(B) MANAGEMENT'S REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING

Our management with the participation of the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer evaluated the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2010. In making this assessment, our management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control-Integrated Framework. Based on this evaluation, our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, concluded that, as of June 30, 2010 we did maintain effective internal controls over financial reporting.

This annual report does not include an attestation report of our registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management's report was not subject to attestation by our registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit the Company to provide only management's report in the Annual Report.

LIMITATIONS ON THE EFFECTIVENESS OF INTERNAL CONTROLS

Management does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal control over financial reporting will necessarily prevent all fraud and material errors. Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving our objectives and our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective at that reasonable assurance level. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the internal control. The design of any system of controls also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Over time, control may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

(C) CHANGES IN INTERNAL CONTROLS OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING

There have been no significant changes in our internal controls over financial reporting during the quarter ended June 30, 2010 that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect such controls.

Item 13.     CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS

On January 26, 2009 the Company entered into a new Settlement Agreement and Mutual General Release (the "Agreement") with Dutchess Private Equities Fund Ltd. The Agreement was made effective as of January 1, 2009. Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, Dutchess agreed to exchange seventeen (17) senior secured notes issued to it by the Company (including the Promissory note issued pursuant to the June 15, 2008 Settlement Agreement described above), for which there was an aggregate remaining balance due, including all accrued and unpaid interest and/or penalties, if any, in the amount of approximately $5,298,139 as of January 1, 2009, for the following; (i) A senior secured note, face value $300,000, which matures on January 1, 2012, pays interest of six percent (6%) per annum and requires minimum monthly payments of $6,000 beginning on March 1, 2009. The $300,000 note is secured by a lien on all of the Company's assets and is equal in rank with all other senior secured debt of the Company; and (ii) A senior secured note, face value $1,883,000, which accrues interest at the rate of eight percent (8%) per annum until maturity on January 1, 2011, at which time all principal and interest accrued thereon are due in full. The $1,883,000 note is secured by a lien on all of the Company's assets and is equal in rank with all other senior secured debt of the Company; and (iii) 3,115 restricted shares of the Company's Series E Convertible Preferred Stock (the notes and preferred stock outlined in (i), (ii) and (iii) above were assigned to Dutchess Advisors LLC ("Dutchess") as of April 9, 2010).

The Agreement also contains a full mutual general release between the parties and each of their respective Affiliated Parties.

Two of the Company's directors, Douglas H. Leighton and Michael A. Novielli, are also directors of Dutchess.

PREFERRED STOCK

The Company has outstanding 75 shares, $1,000 liquidation preference, of Series C Convertible Preferred Stock. Pursuant to the terms of the Series C Convertible Preferred stock, owned by Dutchess Advisors LLC. ("Dutchess"), the Company's largest senior secured creditor (see also Financial Footnotes H - "Loans Payable" and K - "Related Party Transactions"). Dutchess is allowed to cast a vote, on all matters that the Company's shareholders are permitted to vote upon, equal to .7% of all outstanding securities that are eligible to vote at the time of such shareholder action for each share of Series C Convertible Preferred that it owns (.7% X 75 shares = 52.5% of total vote). The shares convert into 1,875,000 shares of the Company's common stock.

The Company has outstanding 3,115 shares of Series E Convertible Preferred Stock (the "Series E Preferred"). Each share of Series E Preferred has a $1,000 liquidation preference, and all 3,155 shares are owned by Dutchess, the Company's largest senior secured creditor (see also Note H - "Loans Payable" and Note K - "Related Party Transactions"). Pursuant to the terms of the Certificate of Designation for the Series E Preferred, each share is convertible into 1,333 shares of common stock (which conversion price is not subject to adjustment due to a reverse split), provided however, in no event shall the Company permit such conversion, into that number of shares of common stock which, when added to number of shares of common stock already beneficially owned (as such term is defined under Section 13(d) and Rule 13d-3 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended), by the holder, would cause the holder's beneficial ownership of common stock to exceed 4.99% of the number of shares of common stock outstanding as of the conversion date for the shares of Series E Preferred that the holder seeks to convert. On any matter for which the shareholders of the Company are entitled to vote, each share of Series E Preferred shall be entitled to cast a number of votes equal to the number of whole shares of common stock into which such share of Series E Preferred could then be converted into.
