ITEM 1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

Overview

(A) We were incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on June 12, 2000, with the name Heritage Management Corporation. In August 2005, we entered into a share exchange agreement with Edgewater Foods International, Inc., the parent company of Island Scallops Ltd. an aquaculture company located in Vancouver Island, British Columbia. As a result of the Share Exchange, Edgewater became our wholly owned subsidiary and Edgewater’s shareholders became the owners of the majority of our voting stock. Pursuant to the terms of the Share Exchange Agreement, Edgewater’s officers and directors were appointed as our officers and directors. Additionally, we changed our name from Heritage Management, Inc. to Edgewater Foods International, Inc.

Our wholly owned subsidiary, Edgewater Foods International Inc., a Nevada Corporation, is the parent company of Island Scallops Ltd., a Vancouver Island aquaculture company. Island Scallops was established in 1989 and for over 19 years has successfully operated a scallop farming and marine hatchery business. Island Scallops is dedicated to the farming, processing and marketing of high quality, high value marine species: scallops and sablefish. Scallop farming is relatively new to North America and Island Scallops is the only producer of both live-farmed Qualicum Beach scallops and live sablefish (or blackcod). Given Island Scallops’ unique hatchery technology and extensive research and development, we believe that there is currently no significant competition for these marine species. Island Scallops is committed to rapidly expanding production and profits while continuing to finance the aggressive growth of the company and maintaining a healthy respect for the marine environment.

Edgewater acquired Island Scallops in June 2005 through a tax free share exchange. Island Scallops was established in 1989 to commercialize Canadian government research on scallop aquaculture. Island Scallops’ hatchery operations have diversified to produce other species of shellfish such as mussels, clams, geoducks and oysters. Island Scallops has also investigated the culture of halibut, spot prawn, sea urchin and abalone. Island Scallops is the first hatchery to successfully produce sablefish juveniles for commercial grow-out.

Currently, Island Scallops’ primary product is farmed Qualicum Beach scallops for sale in the west coast of North America. Island Scallops offers a variety of other products and services to the industry including aquaculture equipment, consulting, research and development, and custom processing and marketing. Internationally, Island Scallops has collaborated with both Japanese and Moroccan fisheries interests.

On August 30, 2006, we filed a Form 8-A to register our common stock pursuant to Section 12(g) of the Act and we therefore ceased being a voluntary filer.

Key Corporate Objectives

Our key business development objectives over the next 36 months are to expand scallop production using both existing and new infrastructure at our facilities in Qualicum Beach, move forward possible joint ventures with First Nations1 groups, investigate strategic acquisitions and/or business opportunities and look for possible partners or additional strategic investors to enable the company to capitalize on its existing black cod technology. In general, we plan on leveraging our existing hatchery technology and expertise via joint venture and/or acquisitions that will enable us to reach signicantly increase sales over the next three years. Specifically, we plan to expand our business and operations as follows:

Leverage our recently completed $2.0 million order with Fanny Bay Oyster Co., a division of Taylor Shellfish Farms of Shelton, Washington (an international seafood distributor and the largest shellfish company on the West Coast) to expand overall scallops and reduce selling costs. The initial order is for more than 800,000 lbs. of Edgewater’s proprietary Qualicum Beach scallops to be delivered to Fanny Bay over the next 13 months. The order includes live scallops, fresh scallop meat and frozen scallops to be farmed in Edgewater Foods’ Qualicum Beach, British Columbia, operation, and packaged and delivered in various scallop products (including live in-the-shell, frozen half-shell and fresh meat).

·	Continue to move forward with our discussions with various First Nations groups about possible partnerships or joint ventures on potential farm sites on First Nation owned lands. This will provide the company with additional growing areas for scallops and future joint venture revenues.

Investigate possible acquisitions of other aquaculture companies, equipment vendors and/or seafood distributors. We plan to initially focus on companies that we believe could significantly benefit from our hatchery technology and expertise. As part of this initiative we recently established an Acquisition/Business Opportunity Board Committee and are currently beginning initial conversions with both North American and Chinese based companies. Aside from the November 2008 acquisition of Granscal Sea Farms Ltd., a Kanish Bay Company, as of the date of this filing, no new definitive agreements have been signed.

________________________

1First Nations commonly refers to the indigenous peoples in what is now Canada. There are currently over 600 recognized First Nations governments or bands in Canada, roughly half of which are in the provinces of Ontario and British Columbia.

Look to indentify either new strategic investors and/or possible joint venture partners who could help us capitalize on existing sablefish (or blackcod) hatchery technology and expertise. One possible arrangement would be for us to license our blackcod hatchery technology and expertise to a strategic partner. As of the date of this filing, we have yet to locate either a strategic investor or a joint venture of licensing partner. If we do indentify a suitable arrangement, our goal would be to capitalize on the high demand for sablefish in foreign markets by entering into the blackcod market in the next 2 to 3 years.

We plan to expand current scallop distribution by leveraging our initial 500,000 piece frozen roe on scallop meat order with European Union seafood distributors. While our arrangement with Taylor Shellfish will focus on North America markets, we believe this order could represent an important first step towards establish a large European based demand for our scallops.

Marketing and Distribution

Our marketing and distribution strategy for Island Scallops is focused on developing and maintaining long-term relationships with distribution channel members. Island Scallops also strives to differentiate its products to achieve consistent supply and quality. Island Scallops believes the scallop market effectively functions as a commodity market and therefore, relationships with distributors are important. To develop these relationships, Island Scallops has identified key purchasing criteria for the distributors: price, quality and consistent farmed supply. In the short term, Island Scallops intends to adopt a pricing policy equal to the market wholesale prices. In other words, we do not intend to set any promotional or premium prices for either the whole or shucked product, but instead intend to sell our products at the market rate. This would mean Island Scallops’ products would compete on other factors, such as supply and consistent quality.

Over the long term, for the reasons noted below, Island Scallops wants to differentiate its products so that it can command premium prices. Freshness is an important factor for scallops since whole scallops only have a shelf life of approximately 7 days while shucked scallops remain fresh for up to 20 days. Due to this short shelf life, distributors try to offer the freshest products. Island Scallops believes it is in a favorable position to supply fresh products to United States brokers/distributors, especially those located on the west coast where demand for the product is strong. Currently, these brokers/distributors are supplied for the most part with east coast North American scallops, which have several transportation-related delivery delays that decrease freshness.

Supply is another key factor where Island Scallops has a distinct advantage. Based on our planned increase in scallop production, we believe that Island Scallops will have a large quantity of scallops for sale. Therefore, a distributor would not have to deal with numerous suppliers, which costs additional time and money. This makes Island Scallops an attractive source for scallops, since we believe that we will be able to satisfy the demand of distributors, which will save them time and money.

Island Scallops has also developed a unique live holding system for use with our distribution model. This system allows Island Scallops to deliver live product directly to seafood suppliers and individual restaurants.

Traditionally, as described above, we have sold live scallops within the Pacific Northwest market. We recently received a $2.0 million order with Fanny Bay Oyster Co., a division of Taylor Shellfish Farms of Shelton, Washington (an international seafood distributor and the largest shellfish company on the West Coast). The order includes live scallops, fresh scallop meat and frozen scallops to be farmed in Edgewater Foods’ Qualicum Beach, British Columbia, operation, and packaged and delivered in various scallop products (including live in-the-shell, frozen half-shell and fresh meat). As a result of this order, Fanny Bay will become the effective exclusive distributor of our scallops outside the European market. We believe this order will reduce cost and encourage additional wholesalers within the Taylor network to carry our scallops. In addition to the Taylor sales agreement, we also recent finalize an order to provide frozen scallop meat with roe to the European market. We believe that this strategic relationships with enable us to capitalize on the large European demand for quality seafood products.

Current Products

Island Scallops currently focuses exclusively on aquaculture products and is not involved in wild fisheries. All seafood products are produced in private hatcheries and grown on ocean farm sites. Currently, the Qualicum Beach Scallop is the only product that Island Scallops produces, grows, processes and markets, with the exception of limited quantities of sablefish grown as part of our planned expansion into this market. In the past however, Island Scallops produced a variety of other shellfish species including the Pacific oyster, European flat oyster, Manila clam, eastern blue mussel, Mediterranean mussel, rock scallop, geoduck clam and sea urchin, which we sold to third party shellfish farmers. Additionally, our hatchery has produced and is capable of producing a variety of shellfish seed (for grow-out and sale by our companies) including mussel, oysters and geoduck as well as scallop seed.

Island Scallops has been a leader in marine hatchery technology for the past 20 years. Island Scallops has developed proprietary hatchery techniques for a number of marine species, most notably the hybridizing of the Qualicum Beach Scallop and becoming the first company to produce commercial quantities of sablefish juveniles. Both of these breakthroughs have required many years of research and considerable investment. In the case of sablefish, which is a cold-water fish that spawns at depths of 800 - 2400 ft, a variety of techniques were required to successfully mature, spawn, incubate and rear the larvae. In addition, there were technical difficulties associated with egg and yolk sac incubation (as well as larvae rearing and weaning) that were resolved using proprietary technology developed at Island Scallops. We intend to begin significant further commercialization of sablefish in the next two to three years, provided we are able to finance the expansion of this product which we estimate will require at least $5.0 million of capital.

Scallop Overview

Island Scallops’ main product is the "Qualicum Beach Scallop", which is a hybrid of the imported Japanese scallop and the local weathervane scallop. Between 1993 and 1999, Island Scallops developed this new scallop using Japanese scallops that were imported under quarantine in the early 1990’s. This unique scallop is marketed as the Qualicum Beach scallop and is the largest scallop in the world, reaching sizes of 15 cm and 500 grams. The scallop species farmed by Island Scallops has a proven record of being disease resistant, with a 95% survival rate during the grow-out phase. We have the necessary farming infrastructure to produce up to 15 million scallops annually and,

with an additional capital investment of approximately $1.0 million we could increase our annual harvest capacity to 30 million scallops in the near future. We hope to fund this expansion via either increasing cash flow or additional equity or debt financings. If we are unable to locate financing or develop positive cash flow, we will not be able to continue to expand our production capabilities.

The Qualicum Beach Scallop is sold live in four sizes: medium, large, extra large and jumbo. Pricing typically ranged from a low of US$3.95 per pound to $4.20 per pound for the larger sized scallops. In the early days of our business, due to the large demand and high value for live scallops, our focus was on the sale of live scallops. However, with the recent sales agreement with Fanny Bay and new European product line, our average selling prices are expected to be between $1.00 and $1.20 per scallop. Although the average selling price per unit will be slightly lower than the per unit cost of live in-the-shell scallops (only), we believe the reduce sales and administrative costs will enable the company to significantly increase our future margins.

The basis for our recently completed and possible additional scallop farming production increase stems from a combination of our tenure expansion, our recent financing, improved grow-out techniques and our transition to a combination of “pearl nets and lantern-style” farming methods. Scallops culture utilizes two styles of small cages referred to as “pearl nets and lantern nets.” Pearl nets are shaped like a pyramid with a 50 by 50 cm square base and grow small scallops from 2-3 mm to 10mm. The 10-mm scallops are grown in cylindrical nets called lantern nets and are 60 cm in diameter and 1.2 meters deep containing 12 layers. Our Hindoo Creek and Deep Bay tenures have been approved for expansion and once expansion of our Denman tenure is approved, which we believe will occur by our next fiscal year, we will be able to increase capacity to approximately 30,000,000 animals per annum (with additional funding). Thereafter, we intend to change our management plan to include off bottom culture at our Nile Creek farm in late 2007 or 2008, which would supply us with the capacity to produce an additional 12-24 million scallops at harvest( depending on the size of nets used).

As the only hatchery/producer of cultured scallops on the west coast of North America, Island Scallops has the ability to supply fresh scallops (of a predictable quality and quantity) throughout the year. Although the supply of scallops has fluctuated in the past, consumer demand has always absorbed the available supply. A primary factor for increased consumption is the increasing health consciousness among consumers. Scallops are low in saturated fats and cholesterol and high in protein. All parts of the scallop body are edible; however, different parts tend to be consumed in different regions of the world. In North America, the adductor muscle is traditionally the only part eaten, with the rest of the body discarded. In Europe, Australia and Tasmania, the adductor muscle is usually marketed and eaten with the gonad attached. Japan utilizes the whole animal, where most of the product is cooked in the shell prior to sale. Marketed scallops generally take the following product forms:

·	Whole-live (shelf life of seven days);

·	Whole dried;

·	Eviscerated whole;

·	Shucked fresh (shelf life of about 15-20 days);

·	Shucked frozen (shelf life of about a year);

·	Frozen on the half-shell (shelf life of about a year); and

·	Value added forms (smoked, breaded, canned).

The shucked product form is the most significant form for North American markets. A whole-live product form is the most desirable from the aquaculturist’s point of view, as processing costs are minimal. Previously, Island Scallops has developed a market for whole live scallops, which exceeds 5,000 lbs. per week into Vancouver. As described above, our scallop sales efforts are currently focused on our Fanny Bay (Taylor Seafood) order and our European orders. We believe that these strategic relationships with enable us to capitalize on established selling networks and proven distributors to capitalize on demand for quality seafood products.

The most predominant scallop production in North America comes from the offshore fishery located on the Georgia Band on the east coast. Large American and Canadian fishing companies dominate the fishery. The majority of their product is shucked aboard ship then supplied, primarily frozen, to seafood processors onshore. The processors then distribute the product to various restaurants, retail outlets and seafood brokers.

Sablefish (Blackcod) Overview

Sablefish (Anoplopoma fimbria), often called blackcod although not a member of the cod family, is an elongate fish with two dorsal fins and an anal fin similar to and opposite the second dorsal fin. Adults are black or greenish gray; usually with slightly paler blotches or chainlike pattern on the upper back. At 30-61 cm in size they are often greenish with faint stripes on the back.

Sablefish inhabit shelf and slope waters in depths of greater than 1,500 meters, from Baja California to the Aleutian Islands and the Bering Sea. The larger populations of sablefish are centered in northern British Columbia and the Gulf of Alaska. Adults favor mud bottoms and feed on benthic invertebrates, squid and numerous fish species. In turn, they are prey for halibut, lingcod, hagfishes and marine mammals such as sea lions. In addition, killer whales have been known to take sablefish from long line gear as it is being retrieved.

Sablefish spawn from January to March along the continental shelf at depths of 800 to 2400 feet. Fecundity ranges from 60,000-200,000 eggs up to one million eggs for a 102-cm fish. Larval sablefish are found in surface waters over the shelf and slope in April and May. Juveniles are highly migratory with significant movement from nursery areas in northern B.C. to the Gulf of Alaska and the Bering Sea. Sablefish move to deeper waters as they mature. Growth is rapid with sizes at maturity reaching 52-61 cm for five-year-old males and 58-71 cm for five-to-seven year old females. Sablefish growth appears to be rapid for the first three-to-five years and slow asymptotically thereafter. Annual natural mortality of adults has been estimated to be about 10 percent.

Island Scallops plans to raise sablefish onshore using shallow ponds or above ground tanks. This system has been successful in Texas for the culture of catfish. Tests have shown that sablefish prove to be very hardy when grown in ponds and this has the added advantage of causing sablefish to be parasite free. Wild sablefish carry a parasite that does not allow the fish to be eaten raw. If we are able to located financing, a strategic partner or license the

technology, we believe that Island Scallops has already demonstrated the feasibility of onshore sablefish farming and plans to develop a new sablefish facility that could produce at least 500,000 sablefish within 12 months of funding. Furthermore, we believe that production could be increased by at least 500,000 annually in future years.

Over the past nine years, Island Scallops has also developed proprietary hatchery technology for the production of sablefish juveniles. We believe that sablefish will be the next species, after salmon, for successful large-scale commercial farming. Sablefish, which is a premium-quality whitefish with a delicate texture and moderate flavor, is an ideal substitute for Chilean sea bass (currently over-fished in all oceans). To date, Island Scallops has marketed a limited number of live sablefish into the Vancouver market. Initial response was excellent for a small 1-kilogram live sablefish (~$11/kg). If we are able to locate suitable funding and/or partners, Island Scallops will be able to capitalize on our breakthrough sablefish hatchery technology by constructing a new sablefish hatchery consisting of the following:

·	An expanded Brood Stock facility with larger capacity to hold the various families of selected strains of sablefish. This new facility will incorporate a new state-of-the-art water treatment system.

·	An improved incubation and larval rearing facility incorporating proprietary improvements in tank design and seawater systems.

·	An upgraded zooplankton culture facility with improved handling and enrichment techniques.

·	An expanded and improved juvenile rearing facility incorporating proprietary recirculation system designs.

As part of this expansion, we also intend to construct a new onshore tank farm consisting of large and small ponds and tanks complete with associated recirculation systems. This onshore facility will be used to augment the juvenile rearing area and will house and grow juvenile fish.

At the present time, worldwide “non-farming” sablefish catches are struggling to meet the worldwide demand according to DFOWeb, NPFMCWeb and Pacific Fishery Management Council Website. Currently, there are only two hatchery facilities: Island Scallops Ltd. and Sablefish Hatcheries Inc. that have produced sablefish juveniles. Current production is less than 400,000 juveniles per year. Based on our analysis of present market conditions, increasing worldwide hatchery production tenfold (to roughly 1 million 3 kilo sablefish) would fill less than 10% of the current world demand shortfall. If Island Scallops’ new sablefish facilities are able to reach a production of 3 million sablefish annually, this will only fill less than 30% of the current overall shortfall. The economic potential for sablefish is therefore considerable. Given these market conditions and opportunities, Island Scallops, subject to our ability to secure adequate funding, is determined to enter the market for sablefish in a significant manner within the next two to three years.

Other Products

In the past Island Scallops sold a variety of shellfish larvae and seed to both international and local customers. Sales included two species of mussels, manila clams, geoduck clams, oysters, abalone and sea urchins. Island Scallops has established suppliers of aquaculture equipment in Japan and China and supplies nets, ropes, floats, and processing equipment into the British Columbia industry. Currently, Island Scallops is focused mainly on expansion of scallop sales. However, the Company is also looking to develop increasing shellfish larvae and seed sales and equipment sales in the near future. In addition, we will continue to investigate funding sources and/or partners for the development of our sablefish operation with a goal of further commercialization of sablefish in two to three years.

General Fisheries Market Overview

The worldwide market for farmed marine species continues to grow. According to personal communications with the National Marine Fisheries Service, Fisheries Statistics Division, Silver Spring, MD, in British Columbia alone, farming production increased from US$44.56 million in 1988 to US$190.24 million in 1998. Although significant growth occurred in salmon farming and little or no growth occurred in shellfish (oyster) farming. Island Scallops can only benefit from this recent trend towards shellfish, as training farmers in correct husbandry would only add another revenue stream.

The majority of the world’s current scallop production comes from three species of scallops: the Japanese scallop, the sea scallop and the king scallop. The Chinese scallop is also selling well, but FDA inspections of China facilities found that the conditions and hygiene were issues as hatcheries were highly polluted. There has also been a fishery boom on the east coast of Canada and the United States with the Digby or sea scallop.

In the United States, consumption of scallops exceeded 64 million pounds in 2002. Various communications between Island Scallops personnel and the National Marine Fisheries Service, Fisheries Statistics Division, Silver Spring, MD and analysis of data from the Fisheries Statistics & Economics Division of the National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) website for annual landings of commercial fisheries (http://www.st.nmfs.noaa.gov/st1/commercial/index.html), tell us that this represented a per capita consumption of 0.22 pounds, with a dollar value of US$342 million. After shrimp, scallops represent one of the most popular shellfish products in the United States. In general, per capita consumption of seafood in the United States has remained steady over the last six years ranging from 15.2 to 16.2 pounds per annum. Based upon Robert Saunders’, our chairman and president, communications with the National Marine Fisheries Service, Fisheries Statistics Division of Silver Spring, MD, and personal observations, given consumers' growing preoccupation with healthier foods and the increasing availability of seafood (due to the recent successes in aqua farming and improved distribution channels), we expect per capita consumption to continue to increase.

Shifts in North American shellfish market trends from shucked to live in shell products can be seen in the oyster markets. Within the last 5 years, we have seen a significant trend away from shucked oyster meat to live in the shell product in the Pacific Northwest due to the demand for fresh high quality products. We believe that once a live in the shell product is readily available within the scallop market, a shift from frozen scallop meat to fresh in shell product will also occur.

Regulatory Environment

Effect of Government Regulation

There are a limited number of regulations that restrict the fishing, distributing or purchase of scallops in Canada and the United States. Therefore, the country of origin makes little difference for the pricing or demand of scallops.

A limitation to market supply is paralytic shellfish poisoning (PSP) or "red tide". PSP is a toxin generated by plankton (scallops' food) at particular times of the year. The toxin is passed to the scallop when plankton is digested, but the toxin does not harm the shellfish. However, the shellfish containing the toxin can be harmful to humans who consume it. Although only a limited number of human deaths caused by red-tide poisoning have been reported, the public announcement of red tide has a devastating effect on most shellfish sales. The exception is scallop meat, because the adductor muscle of the scallop does not concentrate the toxin; shucked scallops are safe to eat at any time of the year. Nevertheless, public perception could still influence demand over short periods of time. To monitor for PSP, the federal Fisheries Inspection Branch constantly monitors samples of shellfish production and wild shellfish populations. In the summer of 2008 Island Scallops experience a prolonged PSP out break and was able to continue processing fresh shucked scallop meat throughout this period with little effect on sales.

Tenure Expansion and Compliance with Environmental Laws

Our planned tenure expansions will require that we undergo an environmental screening from Transports Canada pursuant to Canadian Environmental Assessment Act, which includes a review of factors such as the environmental effects of the planned expansions, including the environmental effects of malfunctions or accidents that may occur in connection with the planned expansions and any cumulative environmental effects that are likely to result from such planned expansions; the significance of such environmental effects and any comments from the public that are received in accordance with the CEA Act and applicable regulations; and measures that are technically and economically feasible and that would mitigate any significant adverse environmental effects of the planned expansions.

Our Deep Bay and Hindo Creek tenures have received final CEA Act approval, which lasts for twenty years and which allows us to expand these 2 tenures. We also received approval to convert our Bowser tenure (now called Nile Creek Farm)to off-bottom growing, which should enable us to accommodate approximately 20million scallops. Please see our risk factor, If we are unable to expand our tenures, our projected production may be delayed.

Competition

Fisheries Industry in General

Island Scallops is in the farmed seafood business. The main concentration of marine farming in British Columbia has traditionally been in the salmon sector. The salmon farming business has developed into a mature industry

dominated by Norwegian farmers. The rest of the British Columbia marine farming sector is in the shellfish industry, mainly in oysters and Manila clams and more recently mussels. This sector is rapidly expanding and it accounted for approximately US$16 million in British Columbia in 2002, according to the British Columbia Shellfish Growers Association website. Given Island Scallops’ expertise and significant research and development experience, we believe that there is little or no direct competition in the production of farmed scallops or farmed sablefish.

Scallops

There are no significant direct competitors in the scallop farming business in British Columbia. The United States will not allow farming this species in their waters, as this species is considered "exotic". Although scallop farming is a very significant industry in Japan and China, only frozen shucked scallops are currently sold into North America from these countries. Recent examination by the United States and Canadian Food Inspection authorities of the growing waters in China resulted in reduced exporting due to high levels of pollution.

Island Scallops is the only hatchery, outside of China, that has successfully produced the Japanese scallop, and the only company that has successfully, hybridized the weathervane and the Japanese scallop. Island Scallops is uniquely positioned as the sole producer of live Pacific Scallops in North America. There currently are no other hatcheries in North America that we are aware of that are capable of producing this unique breed. Although a large commercial scallop fishery exists on the east coast of North America, the majority of the scallops are shucked at sea with only limited quantities sold live. These scallops are sold as "Digby” or “Sea” scallops. A number of companies have attempted to grow the bay scallop and the sea scallop on the east coast, but these companies have only achieved limited success.

The primary British Columbia participants in scallop farming are Island Scallops joint venture farmers or independent scallop farmers, which receive their supply of seed scallops solely from Island Scallops. These farmers are chronically underfinanced and production from these growers usually totals less than 1,000,000 scallops per year. Island Scallops is uniquely positioned to rapidly expand these farms (up to 10 farms) under an exclusive farming and marketing contract.

Due to its large size and small count per pound, the sea scallop is the prime competitor in the United States market. The fishery for this scallop is located primarily on the North American east coast, in particular Georges Bank off New England and the Maritime provinces. This is a limited opportunity fishery, with actual fishing time being dictated by sea and other environmental conditions.

Sablefish

Island Scallops is currently only one of two hatcheries to produce quantities of juvenile sablefish. These fish were sold to five commercial salmon farming facilities and the fish have been marketed successfully. Little demand for a new species has materialized. Although hatcheries have been constructed in British Columbia, neither has successfully produced large quantities of sablefish. The farming of sablefish is still in its infancy and only limited production has occurred.

This limited production is not a matter of biological barriers but rather a lack of interest by the major producers to venture into a new marine species. Alaska sablefish fishermen have expressed interest in farming sablefish and the Sablefish Association of Alaska has voted unanimously to start farming sablefish in southern Alaska. Island Scallops has been in discussion with this association and has been told that due to "anti-aquaculture" policy in Alaska, it is very unlikely that any farming will occur there in the near future.

Washington State contains two parties interested parties in sablefish farming. The first is the Makah Tribe and the second is a private company, which is trying to obtain farming permits in Port Angeles. These parties have made inquiries to Island Scallops for juvenile sablefish. However, to date, no orders have been placed.

Research and Development

Due to changes in Canadian Federal Government’s Research and Development tax credits (SRED) program, which prevents any part of the research to be combined with commercial production, no Research and Development claims were made in fiscal 2007 and 2008. Research did continue on the genetic selection of superior strains of scallops, as did developments in the culture process for both marine algae and developments in re-circulation systems. Island Scallops plans to conduct research and development under a separate company called RKS Laboratories Ltd., which has no commercial production and whose primary goal is the genetic improvement in breeds of the Qualicum Beach Scallops and other marine species. We believe that this will allow the continued support from the SRED program.

Employees

At August 31, 2008, we had 35 full time employees. We anticipate hiring between 10 and 15 temporary workers during the upcoming spring and summer growing seasons.

None of our employees are represented by a labor union and we consider our relationships with our employees to be good.

ITEM 2. DESCRIPTION OF PROPERTY

For the fiscal year ended August 31, 2008, our U.S. corporate office was located at 400 Professional Drive, Suite 310, Gaithersburg, Maryland 20878. This space was provided on a rent free basis by one of our shareholders.

Island Scallops’ main office and hatcheries are located on the east side of Vancouver Island in the town of Qualicum Bay at 5552 West Island Highway, Qualicum Beach, British Columbia, Canada V9K 2C8. The shellfish hatchery is housed in a 930 square meter building. A 300 square meter shellfish processing plant is also located at this site. Corporate scallop farms are situated along the east and west coasts of Vancouver Island. These facilities represent the largest private marine research hatchery and the first fully integrated shellfish producer in Canada.

Island Scallops has a total of five farm sites for scallops. These farm sites are located at Island Scallops held tenures (shellfish tenures are government-granted rights that allow use of offshore waters to cultivate shellfish). Three of those five scallop farms are located in Baynes Sound, 25 minutes north of the main facility. These farms sites total approximately 200 acres and can currently accommodate more than 8 million scallops. Approximately 30% of the farm area is currently being farmed. As part of our expansion plans, we are currently adding additional main lines and plan to increase our capacity at these tenures to more than 24 million scallops in the near future. An additional bottom tenure of 926 acres is located 10 minutes north of the main facility (at Bowser) and is capable of producing at least 30 million scallops annually. The final farm site on the west coast of Vancouver Island near Tofino is capable of producing at least three million scallops, although that site is currently under-developed. Baynes Sound, the marine waterway situated between eastern Vancouver Island and the western shore of Denman Island, is considered the most productive and highly utilized shellfish growing area in coastal British Columbia. The area supports extensive beach culture (manila clams and oysters) as well as deepwater culture that produces oysters, scallops and some mussels.

Common Site Name	Lands File No.	Acres	Type
Denman	1406063	38.64	Deepwater
Hindoo Creek	1406664	123.32	Deepwater
Deep Bay	1406711	43	Deepwater
Tofino	1406061	9.6	Deepwater
Nile Creek	1407517	926	Deepwater

The three Baynes Sound tenures (Denman, Hindoo Creek and Deep Bay) and the Tofino tenure offer unique features, which will add additional value to these properties. These include the split of tenures between east and west shores of Baynes Sound as well as the east and west coast of Vancouver Island, allowing continual accessibility to shellfish despite managed closures (harvest restrictions) due to incidental water quality or Paralytic Shellfish Poisoning (PSP or red tide). The seasonal closures caused by short-term bacteriological contamination related to rainfall and upland bacterial sources, are limited to the western shore of the Baynes Sound and thus to only two of the three tenures retained by Island Scallops. The result of having operating tenures on both sides of the Baynes Sound ensures that product can be continually harvested despite closures that may occur within this management area. The expanded tenures should easily accommodate our increasing scallop harvest in 2009 and beyond. At their current size and with the introduction of sufficient main lines, our tenures have the capacity to accommodate approximately 13-15 million scallops without any increase in their footprints.

Expansion of our Deep Bay and Hindo Creek has been approved and such approval does not need to be renewed for twenty years. An amended tenure agreement has been signed with the government of BC to expand the Denman Island site. In April 2008, we got approval to convert the method of farming at the Nile Creek tenure from bottom to off-bottom culture in one-third of the tenure area; once the conversion is complete, we believe we will be able to accommodate approximately 20 million scallops.

Island Scallops’ location is a distinct advantage for producing marine species. The waters off British Columbia are pristine and unspoiled by large populations or major industries. The close proximity to major western cities allows us to effectively put our products into the hands of the consumer within 24 hours.

The source of our raw material comes from our own hatchery brood stock. In the case of the Qualicum Beach Scallop, we have been selectively breeding this species for superior growth and survival for the past 20 plus years. The breeding program has produced a vigorous, rapid growing, disease resistant scallop with exceptional meat yield. In the case of sablefish we have been selecting fast growing fish for the past 5 years, these display a high degree of domestication. The spawning season has been extended for both of these species allowing for juvenile production almost year round. This ability to hold seed stock and select superior strains gives Island Scallops an advantage in the industry. It also allows Island Scallops to tailor its production to varying seasonal and market demands.

ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

In 1998 our wholly owned subsidiary, Island Scallops, entered into an Agreement with two parties, pursuant to which Island Scallops was to produce and sell geoduck seed to the two parties. Island Scallops received advance payments from each of the two parties in 2002 totaling approximately $64,140. As a result of breaches of the purchase agreements by the purchasers, it is our position that we may retain any unused portion of these advance payments.

As of August 31, 2004, one of the two purchasers had claimed that Island Scallops owed it amounts totaling $88,925. Since it is our position that the purchasers breached their agreements with Island Scallops, we have no intention of seeking a settlement of this matter at this time. We are unaware of any formal proceedings that may have been commenced by either of these two purchasers in regard to any claims that they may have.

Other than as set forth herein, we are not a party to any material legal proceeding and to our knowledge no such proceeding is currently contemplated or pending.

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

We did not submit any matters to a vote of our security holders during the fiscal year covered by this Report.

Securities Authorized for Issuance Under Equity Compensation Plans

2005 Equity Incentive Plan

Our 2005 Equity Incentive Plan is intended to further our growth and financial success by providing additional incentives to our directors, executives and selected employees and consultants so that such participants may acquire or increase their proprietary interest in us. The term "Corporation" shall include any parent corporation or subsidiary corporation of Edgewater as those terms are defined in Section 424(e) and (f) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. Stock options granted under the Plan may be either "Incentive Stock Options", as defined in Code section 422 and any regulations promulgated under that Section, or "Nonstatutory Options" at the discretion of our Board of Directors and as reflected in the respective written stock option agreements granted pursuant to this Equity Plan. Stock Appreciation Rights, Restricted Stock, Restricted Stock Unit, Performance Awards, Dividend Equivalents, or Other Stock-Based Awards may also be granted under the Equity Plan. The Board believes that the Equity Plan will maintain the flexibility that Edgewater needs to keep pace with its competitors and effectively recruit, motivate, and retain the caliber of employees, directors and consultants essential for achievement of our success.

Individuals eligible to receive awards under the Equity Plan include officers, directors, employees of and consultants to Edgewater and its affiliates. The number of shares available under the Equity Plan shall be 5,000,000 shares of our common stock, as well as the following: As of January 1 of each year, commencing with the year 2006 and ending with the year 2008, the aggregate number of Shares available for granting Awards under the Equity Plan shall automatically increase by a number of Shares equal to the lesser of (x) 5% of the total number of Shares then outstanding or (y) 1,000,000. The Board may distribute those shares in whatever form of award they so choose within the Equity Plan’s guidelines. There are no restrictions on the amount of any one type of award that may be granted under the Equity Plan.

As of August 31, 2008, our Board of Directors had granted 2,992,000 options to employees, directors and consultants under the Equity Plan. As of August 31, 2008, 400,000 of these options had been canceled and 2,592,000 were outstanding. As of August 31, 2008, there are 7 Directors, 1 executive officers, 1 consultant and approximately 26 employees other than executive officers, who are eligible to receive awards under the Equity Plan.

The Board may delegate a Committee to administer the Equity Plan. The Committee shall not consist of fewer than two members, each of whom is a member of the Board and all of whom are disinterested persons, as contemplated by Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended and each of whom is an outside director for purposes of Section 162(m) of the Code, acting in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.

Currently, we do not have any definitive plans for granting further awards under the Equity Plan and no determination has been made as to the number of awards to be granted, or the number or identity of recipients of awards.

Amending the Plan. The Board may amend, alter, suspend, discontinue, or terminate the Equity Plan, including, without limitation, any amendment, alteration, suspension, discontinuation, or termination that would impair the rights of any Participant, or any other holder or beneficiary of any Award theretofore granted, without the consent of any share owner, Participant, other holder or beneficiary of an Award, or other Person. The Board may also waive any

conditions or rights under, amend any terms of, or amend, alter, suspend, discontinue, or terminate, any Awards theretofore granted, prospectively or retroactively, without the consent of any Participant, other holder or beneficiary of an Award. Except as provided in the following sentence, the Board is authorized to make adjustments in the terms and conditions of, and the criteria included in, Awards in recognition of unusual or nonrecurring events affecting the Company, any Affiliate, or the financial statements of the Company or any Affiliate, or of changes in applicable laws, regulations, or accounting principles, whenever the Board determines that such adjustments are appropriate in order to prevent dilution or enlargement of the benefits or potential benefits to be made available under the Equity Plan. In the case of any Award that is intended to qualify as performance-based compensation for purposes of Section 162(m) of the Code, the Board will not have authority to adjust the Award in any manner that would cause the Award to fail to meet the requirements of Section 162(m).

Options and Rights. Options and Stock Appreciation Rights may be granted under the Equity Plan. The exercise price of options granted shall be determined by the Board or the Committee; provided, however, that such exercise price per Share under any Incentive Stock Option shall not be less than 100% (110% in the case of a "10-percent shareholder as such term is used in Section 422(c)(5) of the Code) of the Fair Market Value of a Share on the date of grant of such Incentive Stock Option. The Board or Committee shall fix the term of each Option, provided that no Incentive Stock Option shall have a term greater than 10 years (5 years in the case of a "10-percent shareholder” as such term is used in Section 422(c)(5) of the Code).

A Stock Appreciation Right granted under the Equity Plan shall confer on the holder thereof a right to receive, upon exercise thereof, the excess of (1) the Fair Market Value of one Share on the date of exercise or, if the Board or Committee shall so determine in the case of any such right other than one related to any Incentive Stock Option, at any time during a specified period before or after the date of exercise over (2) the grant price of the right as specified by the Board or Committee. Subject to the terms of the Plan, the grant price, term, methods of exercise, methods of settlement, and any other terms and conditions of any Stock Appreciation Right shall be as determined by the Board or the Committee. The Board and the Committee may impose such conditions or restrictions on the exercise of any Stock Appreciation Right as it may deem appropriate.

Federal Income Tax Consequences. The current federal income tax consequences of grants under the Equity Plan are generally described below. This description of tax consequences is not a complete description, and is based on the Internal Revenue Code as presently in effect, which is subject to change, and is not intended to be a complete description of the federal income tax aspects of options and stock awards under the Equity Plan. Accordingly, the discussion does not deal with all federal income tax consequences that may be relevant to a particular recipient, or any foreign, state or local tax considerations. Accordingly, potential recipients are urged to consult their own tax advisors as to the specific federal, foreign, state and local tax consequences to them as a result of receiving an Award under the Equity Plan.

Nonqualified Stock Options. A recipient will not be subject to federal income tax upon the grant of a nonqualified stock option. Upon the exercise of a nonqualified stock option, the recipient will recognize ordinary compensation

income in an amount equal to the excess, if any, of the then fair market value of the shares acquired over the exercise price. We will generally be able to take a deduction with respect to this compensation income for federal income tax purposes. The recipient’s tax basis in the shares acquired will equal the exercise price plus the amount taxable as compensation to the recipient. Upon a sale of the shares acquired upon exercise, any gain or loss is generally long-term or short-term capital gain or loss, depending on how long the shares are held. The required holding period for long-term capital gain is presently more than one year. The recipient’s holding period for shares acquired upon exercise will begin on the date of exercise.

Incentive Stock Options. A recipient who receives incentive stock options generally incurs no federal income tax liability at the time of grant or upon exercise of the options. However, the spread will be an item of tax preference, which may give rise to alternative minimum tax liability at the time of exercise. If the recipient/optionee does not dispose of the shares before the date that is two years from the date of grant and one year from the date of exercise, the difference between the exercise price and the amount realized upon disposition of the shares will constitute long-term capital gain or loss, as the case may be. Assuming both holding periods are satisfied, no deduction will be allowable to us for federal income tax purposes in connection with the option. If, within two years of the date of grant or within one year from the date of exercise, the holder of shares acquired upon exercise of an incentive stock option disposes of the shares, the recipient/optionee will generally realize ordinary compensation income at the time of the disposition equal to the difference between the exercise price and the lesser of the fair market value of the stock on the date of exercise or the amount realized on the disposition. The amount realized upon such a disposition will generally be deductible by us for federal income tax purposes.

Stock Awards. If a recipient receives an unrestricted stock award, he/she will recognize compensation income upon the grant of the stock award. If a recipient receives a restricted stock award, he/she normally will not recognize taxable income upon receipt of the stock award until the stock is transferable by the recipient or no longer subject to a substantial risk of forfeiture, whichever occurs earlier. When the stock is either transferable or no longer subject to a substantial risk of forfeiture, the recipient will recognize compensation income in an amount equal to the fair market value of the shares (less any amount paid for such shares) at that time. A recipient may, however, elect to recognize ordinary compensation income in the year the stock award is granted in an amount equal to the fair market value of the shares (less any amount paid for the shares) at that time, determined without regard to the restrictions. We will generally be entitled to a corresponding deduction at the same time, and in the same amount, as the recipient recognizes compensation income with respect to a stock award. Any gain or loss recognized by the recipient upon subsequent disposition of the shares will be capital gain or loss.

Tax Deductibility under Section 162(m). Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code disallows a public company’s deductions for employee compensation exceeding $1,000,000 per year for the chief executive officer and the four other most highly compensated executive officers. Section 162(m) contains an exception for performance-based compensation that meets specific requirements. The Equity Plan is intended to permit all options to qualify as performance-based compensation at the Board of Directors or Committee’s discretion. If an Award is to qualify as such, it shall clearly state so in the award agreement.

Withholding. We have the right to deduct any taxes required to be withheld with respect to grants under the Equity Plan. We may require that the participant pay to us the amount of any required withholding. The Compensation Committee may permit the participant to elect to have withheld from the shares issuable to him or her with respect to an option or restricted stock the number of shares with a value equal to the required tax withholding amount.

The following table provides information as of August 31, 2008 with respect to compensation plans (including individual compensation arrangements) under which our securities are authorized for issuance:

*As of January 1 of each year, commencing with the year 2006 and ending with the year 2008, the aggregate number of shares available for granting Awards under the Equity Plan shall automatically increase by a number of Shares equal to the lesser of (x) 5% of the total number of Shares then outstanding or (y) 1,000,000.

ITEM 6.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and the notes thereto which appear elsewhere in this report. The results shown herein are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected in any future periods. This discussion contains forward-looking statements based on current expectations, which involve uncertainties. Actual results and the timing of events could differ materially from the forward-looking statements as a result of a number of factors. Readers should also carefully review factors set forth in other reports or documents that we file from time to time with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Overview

During our 2008 fiscal year, we continued the harvesting, processing and sale of our 2004 and 2005 year classes of scallops, continued sorting our 2006 scallop class and transferring our 2007 year-class scallops (which were still maturing in our tenured growing sites and on-shore ponds) to larger grow-out nets on our farm sites. We also completed the spawning, grow-out in our on-shore nursery ponds and started transferring our 2008 scallop year class to our farm sites. We refer to the year-class of scallops based on when the scallops were spawned. Generally, the harvest occurs approximately 22 to 24 months after spawning of the scallops.

During our 2008 fiscal year, we also continued the new sales and marketing efforts that began in the later part of our 2007 fiscal year. Traditionally, we have sold live scallops within the Pacific Northwest market, but the seafood sale and distribution consultants that we hired in late 2007 began to introduce new product lines of fresh meat and a new unique frozen on the half-shell product that started to generate significant interest. Despite the initial success of these efforts, we recently completed a large purchase order with Fanny Bay Oyster Co., a division of Taylor Shellfish Farms of Shelton, Washington (an international seafood distributor and the largest shellfish company on the West Coast). The order includes live scallops, fresh scallop meat and frozen scallops that will be packaged and delivered in various scallop products (including live in-the-shell, frozen half-shell and fresh meat). As a result of this order, Fanny Bay will effectively become the exclusive distributor of our scallops outside the European market. We believe this order will reduce cost and encourage additional wholesalers within the Taylor network to carry our scallops, which we believe will bring greater value to our shareholders than a continued relationship with the sale and distribution consultants discussed above. In addition to the Taylor sales agreement, we recently finalized an order to provide frozen scallop meat with roe to the European market. We believe that this strategic relationship will enable us to capitalize on the large European demand for quality seafood products.

Management believes that these new sales agreements, coupled with the improved processing plant will yield increased revenues in our 2009 fiscal year and thereafter. Management believes that the combination of the Fanny Bay (Taylor) sales and marketing network and the Island Scallop processing plant and product will result in both improved sales and margins. In addition, recent experience gained from harvesting and sorting scallops on the new longline systems should allow for greater future harvesting rates. Also, as a result of the operational review that we completed in the spring of 2008, we indentified several areas where we can streamline operations while continuing to grow our revenues.

Additionally, we plan on generating additional near term revenues via the sale of scallop and other shellfish seed (including clams and oysters). We are also moving forward with our discussions with various First Nations2 groups about possible partnerships or joint ventures on potential farm sites on First Nation owned lands. Management anticipates formalizing our first joint venture with a first nations group as early as the start of the 2009 calendar year. This will provide us with additional growing areas for scallops and future joint venture revenues.

Despite the increased revenues in 2008, we were not able to achieve positive operational cash flows during the fiscal year. Although Management expects to achieve positive cash flows in 2009, we have started to investigate acquisitions of other aquaculture companies, equipment vendors and/or seafood distributors. We plan to initially focus on companies that we believe could significantly benefit from our hatchery technology and expertise. Management believes that the combination of our existing hatchery technology and knowledge, coupled with a company’s existing revenues and sales and marketing channels could result in significantly improved cash flows. As part of this initiative, we recently established an Acquisition/Business Opportunity Board Committee and are currently beginning initial conversations with both North American and Chinese based companies. As of the date of this filing, no definitive agreements have been signed.

In May 2008, we started the expansion of our Nile Creek farm (or scallop growing area). We installed 25 new “triple” lines that will have the capacity to handle up to 135,000 scallops per line. In the coming months, as funds are available, we will add an additional 58 lines and continue to outfit these new 300 meter lines with the necessary floats and netting required for scallop farming.

During the continued harvesting of our 2005 class, sorting of our 2006 scallops classes and transfer of our 2007 scallop classes, we were able to review our mortality rates and update our class size projections. Based on this review and recent sales, we expect to bring the remaining 1.9 million of our 2005 and 2006 year class scallops to market in the beginning of 2009. Originally, we believed that our 2006 spawning would yield between 5 and 10 million scallops at full maturity/harvest. However, mortality rates were at the higher end of our projections due to the handling and sorting learning curve associated with the roll-out of our new longline and anchor system. Additionally, problems associated with the timing of moving scallops to large nets (also known as “ocean timing”) and the density (i.e. number of scallops per net level) contributed to additional mortality problems. We anticipate that survival rates for the future classes, starting with the 2007 scallop class, will improve due to the addition of more lines and anchors, better spacing and sorting within each lantern net, experience gained from the sorting and farming of both the 2005 and 2006 year classes and lessons learned on ocean timing and scallop density during the handling of our 2006 scallop class. We noticed gains in animal survival rates and individual scallop size in the 2007 class as compared to the 2006 class at a similar point in its development. As of our most recent review of our scallop inventory, we currently believe that our 2007 year class should yield up to 7 million scallops at full maturity/harvest. Although this is lower than initial estimates, it will still represent our largest year class to date.

We are currently transferring the initial portion of our 2008 scallops class from our hatchery ponds and into the ocean farms. We originally expected to produce up to 24 million full-size scallops in this year class, but due to survival problems associated with our hatchery spawns and funding limitations, we now expect to produce as few as 3 million full-size scallops. Based on our initial review of the hatchery spawn, we believe the mortality problem were the result of large blooms of toxic marine algae at the critical stage prior to metamorphosis of approximately 600 million scallop larvae. These blooms corresponded to high levels of Paralytic Shellfish Poisoning in our ocean farms and although it did not harm any of our juvenile or mature scallops, it is believed that pre-metamorphic larvae are particularly susceptible. Procedures are now in place to prevent the introduction of toxic algae into the hatchery system in the coming years.

As a result of a recent review of our business plan and sales and marketing efforts to date, we currently plan to harvest and sell approximately 7 million full-size 2007 scallops over the 12 months ending December 2009. In addition, we estimate that our 2008 year class will produce at least 3 million full-size scallops. The size of our 2009 and 2010 year classes will (in some ways) be determined by our ability to generate positive cash flows and/or our ability to locate additional financing. As a result of our lower than expected sales and yields, we are still evaluating the cash available for farming and infrastructure costs related to expanding our future yields. These classes will be harvested and sold in subsequent 12 month periods following the sales our 2007 year class. Based on our current review of sales and marketing conditions, we believe our scallops will yield at least $1 of revenue per scallop. The yield per scallop could increase significantly if we are able to sell a greater percentage of live scallops. We also plan on generating additional annual revenues via the sale of scallop and other shellfish seed in the upcoming years. We anticipate formalizing a business venture with a first nations group as early as the second quarter of 2009 and believe that such a partnership will begin producing significant new revenue as early as our 2009 fiscal year.

If our mortality rates are better than our current projections, our yield and revenues from the 2005, 2006 and 2007 scallop class could be higher; conversely, if our mortality rates are worse than we anticipate our revenues for this period could be lower than we anticipate. In addition, changes in the anticipated growth rates, projected harvesting cycles and large fluctuations in the price of scallops or the US-Canadian exchange rate could impact our current projections. Furthermore, if we cannot achieve our estimated product mixture (live/fresh/frozen) than our average sales price per scallop will be lower. Alternatively, if we are able to sell a large percentage of high yield products (live or frozen on the half shells) than our average price per scallop will be higher.

In fiscal year 2008, our cost of goods continued to improve relative to our selling price, however, were still operating at a negative margin. . Part of this problem was associated with operational inefficiencies that were identified during our recently completed top-down operation review. As a result, we expect are cost of goods sold to continue to improve for our 2006 and 2007 year classes and in the coming years we expect to see continued improvements in cost of goods.

We recently completed a private placement that resulted in net proceeds of $1.46 million. Based on our current estimates of near-term sales and capital costs of expanding our farms to increase future crop yields, we will require additional financings to continue our current rate of expansion. As we have yet to raise additional capital and our sales have increased at a slower than expected pace, we have already scaled back some of our expansion plans and may have to further scale back the plans outlined herein. We originally anticipated that we would need approximately $1.0 million over the next 14 months in order to continue our originally planned expansion activities, however, we now plan to align our future expansions with our ability to generate positive cash flows from our current scallop crops and/or our ability to locate additional financing.

Liquidity and Cash Resources

At August 31, 2008, we had a cash balance of approximately $712,000. Prior to the completion of our initial Preferred Stock Financing, our initial expansion had been largely funded by a short term note with a maximum limit of approximately $1,451,000. During the year ending August 31, 2007, we completed one private equity financing and had investors exercise various warrants that resulted in net proceeds of approximately $3,075,000. During the year ending August 31, 2006, we relied on four private equity financings that resulted in net proceeds of approximately $5,140,000. These 2006 and 2007 financings formerly contained warrants, which if fully exercised, could have raised approximately an additional $49,350,000. To date, the exercise of these warrants resulted in net proceeds of roughly $1,200,000; however, our recently completed financing also resulted in a warrant exchange that eliminated most of the remaining warrants from the 2006 and 2007 financings. We have suffered operating losses since inception in our efforts to establish and execute our business strategy. After the completion of the recent Series D preferred financing, management believed that we had adequate funds to maintain our business operations into our 2009 fiscal year and/or until we become cash flow positive, but we continued to suffer operational losses in our 2008 fiscal year. Until our operations are able to demonstrate and maintain positive cash flows, we may require additional working capital to fund our ongoing operations and execute our business strategy of expanding our operations. In fact, based on our current estimates of future sales and capital costs of expanding our farms in order to increase future crop yields, we will require additional financings to continue expand our operations. Based on these factors, there is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

(b) Significant Accounting Policies

(i) Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the acquired entities since their respective dates of acquisition. All significant inter-company amounts have been eliminated.

Cash and equivalents

Cash and equivalents include cash, bank indebtedness, and highly liquid short term market investments with terms to maturity of three months or less. We consider all highly liquid investments with original maturities of 90 days or less to be cash equivalents. We maintain our cash balances primarily in on financial institution, which exceeded federally insured limits by $1,561,136 at August 31, 2008. We have not experienced any losses, in such accounts and we believe that we are not exposed to any significant credit risk on cash and cash equivalents.

Accounts receivable

Accounts receivable is presented net of allowance for doubtful accounts. The allowance for doubtful accounts reflects estimates of probable losses in accounts receivable. The allowance is determined based on balances outstanding for over 90 days at the period end date, historical experience and other current information.

Loans receivable

Loans receivable is presented net of an allowance for loan losses, as necessary. The loans are written off when collectibility becomes uncertain.

Inventory

We maintain inventories of raw materials for our aquaculture products, of biomass (inventory of live aquaculture product being actively cultivated), and of finished goods (aquaculture product ready for sale).

Inventories are reported at the lesser of cost or estimated net realizable value. Biomass and finished goods includes direct and reasonably attributable indirect production costs related to hatchery, cultivation, harvesting, and processing activities. Carrying costs per unit are determined on a weighted average basis.

Long term investments

Long term investments are recorded at cost. We review our investments periodically to assess whether there is an “other than temporary” decline in the carrying value of the investment. We consider whether there is an absence of an ability to recover the carrying value of the investment by reference to projected undiscounted future cash flows for the investment. If the projected undiscounted future cash flow is less than the carrying amount of the asset, the asset is deemed impaired. The amount of the impairment is measured as the difference between the carrying value and the fair value of the asset.

Property, plant, and equipment

Property and equipment are carried at cost, less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is calculated by using the straight-line method for financial reporting and accelerated methods for income tax purposes. The recovery classifications for these assets are listed as follows:

	Years
Headend Facility and Fiber Infrastructure	20
Manufacturing Equipment	3–7
Furniture and Fixtures	2–7
Office Equipment	5
Leasehold Improvements	Life of lease
Property and Equipment	5
Vehicles	5

Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged against income as incurred whereas major improvements are capitalized.

Impairment of long-lived assets

We monitor the recoverability of long-lived assets, including property and equipment and intangible assets, based upon estimates using factors such as expected future asset utilization, business climate, and undiscounted cash flows resulting from the use of the related assets or to be realized on sale. Our policy is to write down assets to the estimated net recoverable amount in the period in which it is determined likely that the carrying amount of the asset will not be recoverable.

Government assistance

Government assistance we receive, such as grants, subsidies, and tax credits, is recorded as a recovery of the appropriate related expenditure in the period that the assistance is received.

We have received government assistance in the form of loans, for which repayment may not be required if we fail to meet sufficient future revenue levels to repay these loans based on a percentage of gross sales for certain products over a defined period of time. If we receive any such assistance, it is initially recorded as a liability, until such time as all conditions for forgiveness are met, and is then recognized as other income in that period.

Farm license costs

We must pay annual license costs in respect to government-granted tenures that we hold, which give us the right to use certain offshore ocean waters for the purpose of aquaculture farming. Such license costs are recognized as an expense when incurred.

Research and development costs

Development costs include costs of materials, wages, and reasonably attributable indirect costs incurred by us which are directly attributable to the development of hatchery techniques for sablefish and shellfish, these costs are expensed when incurred.

Research costs are expensed when incurred.

Income taxes

We calculate our provision for income taxes in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109 (Accounting for Income Taxes) (“SPAS 109”), which requires an asset and liability approach to financial accounting for income taxes. This approach recognizes the amount of taxes payable or refundable for the current year, as well as deferred tax assets and liabilities attributable to the future tax consequences of events recognized in the financial statements and tax returns. Deferred income taxes are adjusted to reflect the effects of enacted changes in tax laws or tax rates. Deferred income tax assets are recorded in the financial statements if realization is considered more likely than not.

Revenue recognition

We recognize revenue when it is realized or realizable, and earned. We consider revenue realized or realizable and earned when there is persuasive evidence of a contract, the product has been delivered or the services have been provided to the customer, the sales price is fixed or determinable, and collectibility is reasonably assured.

Our revenue is derived principally from the sale of scallops we produce or purchase from third parties, and from the sale of seed and farm supplies to other aquaculture farms.

Cost of goods

Cost of goods sold consists primarily of farming, harvesting and processing costs associated with the growth, transfer and sales preparation of our products (principally scallops). These costs consist primarily of salaries and benefits and allocated overhead costs for consulting and support personnel engaged in the farming, harvesting and processing of our products. All costs are recognized at time of delivery.

Financial instruments

The carrying amount of our financial instruments, which includes cash, accounts receivable, loans receivable, bank indebtedness, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, short term debt and long term debt approximate fair value. It is management’s opinion that we are not exposed to significant interest, currency or credit risk arising from these financial instruments unless otherwise noted.

Derivative financial instruments

In connection with the sale of debt or equity instruments, we may sell options or warrants to purchase our common stock. In certain circumstances, these options or warrants may be classified as derivative liabilities, rather than as equity. Additionally, the debt or equity instruments may contain embedded derivative instruments, such as embedded derivative features, which in certain circumstances may be required to be bifurcated from the associated host instrument and accounted for separately as a derivative instrument liability.

We account for all derivatives financial instruments in accordance with SFAS No. 133. Derivative financial instruments are recorded as liabilities in the consolidated balance sheet, measured at fair value. When available, quoted market prices are used in determining fair value. However, if quoted market prices are not available, we estimate fair value using either quoted market prices of financial instruments with similar characteristics or other valuation techniques.

The identification of, and accounting for, derivative instruments is complex. Our derivative instrument liabilities are re-valued at the end of each reporting period, with changes in the fair value of the derivative liability recorded as charges or credits to income, in the period in which the changes occur. For options, warrants and bifurcated embedded derivative features that are accounted for as derivative instrument liabilities, we estimate fair value using either quoted market prices of financial instruments with similar characteristics or other valuation techniques. The valuation techniques require assumptions related to the remaining term of the instruments and risk-free rates of return, our current common stock price and expected dividend yield, and the expected volatility of our common stock price over the life of the option. The identification of, and accounting for, derivative instruments and the assumptions used to value them can significantly affect our financial statements.

Derivative financial instruments that are not designated as hedges or that do not meet the criteria for hedge accounting under SFAS No. 133 are recorded at fair value, with gains or losses reported currently in earnings. All derivative financial instruments held by us at August 31, 2008 were not designated as hedges.

Foreign exchange

The functional currency of our foreign subsidiaries is the local foreign currency. All assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate prevailing on the balance sheet date. Revenues, costs and expenses are translated at average rates of exchange prevailing during the period. Translation adjustments resulting from translation of the subsidiaries' accounts are accumulated as a separate component of shareholders' equity. Gains and losses resulting from foreign currency transactions are included in the consolidated statements of operations and have not been significant.

Use of estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Such estimates include providing for amortization of property, plant, and equipment, and valuation of inventory. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that is material to our investors.

Investments in Tenures as Compared to Estimated Market Value of Tenures

We currently carry our investment in Island Scallops’ tenures at $3,578. This amount represents the initial carrying costs of certain tenures acquired by Island Scallops’ subsidiary. These tenures do not expire until various dates ranging from 2021 – 2024, however, we believe that they have an indefinite useful life because renewal on expiration is anticipated. The area available for shellfish aquaculture within Baynes Sound is fully subscribed, and as a result new tenures for new companies are not available through the Canadian Provincial application and review process. The shellfish companies within the Sound are also well established and sales of tenures are quite rare, making the assessment of the market value for the Island Scallops tenures difficult. Historical sales and government auction of tenures have received as much as $300,000 (CDN) for a small beach tenure (less than 4 acres) and $65,000 CDN) for a small deepwater tenure without infrastructure. The few tenures on the market over the previous 24 months suggest that the current market value is approximately $10,000 to $25,000 (CDN) per acre. Based on listings of tenures on the coast of British Columbia, discussions with local shellfish growers and individuals from the BC Assets and Land Corporation, and an independent appraisal (commissioned by Island Scallops) that recently estimated the value of our roughly 1018 acres of tenures, the value is estimated to be approximately $8,600,000. As a result of the recently approved tenure expansions, the estimated market value of our overall tenures has increased to roughly $10,600,000. The estimated market value is based on the size, location and whether they are beach or deepwater in nature. However, given the variable nature of the shellfish tenures market, the actual value that we receive from the sale of a tenure or a partial tenure could vary significantly from these estimated values.

Although we cannot determine the exact amount we would ultimately receive from the sale of our tenure(s), based upon the information stated above we expect to receive more than the carrying cost ($3,578) from such sale. Accordingly, the carrying cost of our tenures is not indicative of their actual value. This analysis indicates our cash generating capabilities after considering investments in capital assets necessary to maintain and enhance existing operations.

Comparison of results for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2008, to the fiscal year ended August 31, 2007.

Revenues. Revenues for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2008, were approximately $1,584,000. We had revenues of approximately $657,000 for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2007. This is an increase of approximately $927,000 or 141%. The increase in our revenue was mainly the result of an increase in the sales of our own scallops. In fact, sales of our own scallops increased by more than 93% or roughly $509,000. If not for the loss of live scallop sales due to the temporary closing of our harvest areas due to Red Tide issues, our overall sales may have increased by at least an additional $100,000. Prior to 2008, our increase in sales was the result of an increase in oyster and scallop seed sales and increased joint venture sales. As was the case in 2007 and 2006, management continued its emphasis on the development and production of larger scallop crops. Management believes that our emphasis on expansion of future crops coupled with our new sales agreements will yield increased revenues starting in 2009 and beyond.

Gross profit (loss). Gross loss for the year ended August 31, 2008, was approximately $479,000, a increase of approximately $100,000 as compared to gross loss of roughly $379,000, for the year ended August 31, 2007. The increase in the amount of gross loss for 2008 (as compared to 2007) was mainly attributable to management’s continued focus on the expansion and development of larger scallop crops and larger scallop yields for future years and increased marketing efforts. Part of this increase was attributable to increased costs due to higher processing plant and trucking costs as we began to establish a larger sales effort. In the future, as we capitalize on our new sales agreements, we expect our sales to increase more rapidly that these costs and margins to quickly improve. We continued to focus resources on maintaining, developing and tending to our scallop crops and believe that we have already seen the initial benefits in increased sales of our own scallops and that we will continue to see additional benefits from our efforts in developing larger crops in the first quarter of 2008 and beyond.

General and administrative. General and administrative expenses for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2008, were approximately $3,185,000. Our general and administrative expenses were approximately $1,541,000 for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2007. This is an increase of approximately 1,644,000 or 107%. The majority of this increase was directly attributable to stock option expense of roughly $1,780,000 as compared to $486,000 for the same period in 2007. To date, we have already expensed the majority of the stock option expenses related to the 2,592,000 options that were outstanding as of August 31, 2008. As such, management believes general and administrative expenses will drop significantly in the upcoming fiscal year. Our increase in general and administrative expenses for the year ended August 31, 2008, was attributable to costs associated with establishing, building, and supporting our infrastructure and included various consulting costs, legal and accounting fees, compensation paid as result of our recent financing, overhead, realized stock compensation, stock option expenses and salaries. We anticipate that these costs may continue to slightly rise as we continue to expand our operations. However, we believe that we now have the necessary general and administrative staff in place to handle an expansion of up 30 million scallop crops and beyond.

Common stock issued for services. During the year ended August 31, 2008, we had stock compensation expense of approximately $91,000. The expense was for outside seafood sale and distribution consultants who we hired to help

develop new sales and marketing programs. During the year ended August 31, 2007, we had stock compensation expense of approximately $62,000. The expense was also for outside seafood sale and distribution consultants who we hired to help develop new sales and marketing programs. As such, we incurred a stock compensation expense of approximately $62,000 for year ended August 31, 2007.

Other income (expense), net. Interest expense for the year ended August 31, 2008 was approximately $11,000. Interest expense for the year ending August 31, 2007 was approximately $16,000. Other expense for the year ended August 31, 2008 was approximately $6,000 as opposed to other income of approximately $167,000 for the year ending August 31, 2007. The other income for the year ended August 31, 2007 was mainly the result of a one time gain of approximately $122,000 related to the forgiveness of a third-party debt in 2007. For the year ended August 31, 2007, we recognized a one-time gain of approximately $5,827,000 which was related to the change in fair value of warrants issued to 10 institutional and accredited investors in conjunction with preferred stock on April 12, May 30, June 30, July 11 and January 16, 2007. As a result of the reclassifying these warrant liabilities on February 21, 2007, no such gain or loss was recorded for the year ended August 31, 2008.

As a result, other expense for the year ended August 31, 2008, was approximately $17,000 as compared to other income of approximately $5,978,000 for the year ended August 31, 2007. As described above, the other income for the year ended August 31, 2007, was mainly a result of one-time gains associated with the forgiveness of third-party debt and change in fair-value of warrants. Without these one-time items, other expense would have been relatively unchanged at $17,000 (for 2008) as compared to $16,000 (for 2007).

Net profit (loss). As a result of the above, the net loss for the year ended August 31, 2008, was approximately $4,575,000 as compared to a net income of approximately $3,538,000 for the year ended August 31, 2007.

Risk Factors

You should carefully consider the risks described below before making an investment in us. All of these risks may impair our business operations. If any of the following risks actually occurs our business, financial condition or results of operations could be materially adversely affected. In such case, the trading price of our common stock could decline, and you may lose all or part of your investment.

Risks Relating to Aquaculture

We are subject to a number of biological and environmental risks.

Our business would be adversely affected if our scallop crop is infected by Perkinsus Quagwadi. Perkinsus affects a variety of scallops. In 1992, mortality due to Perkinsus infection was large and mortality was high, but Island Scallops was able to overcome this disease by breeding the remaining stock. Eight years of successfully breeding hardy individuals resulted in the remaining populations of scallops being Perkinsus-free. Although there is a chance that other diseases may occur, the Island Scallops hybrid scallop has proven resistant to Perkinsus disease for the last ten years.

Paralytic Shellfish Poisoning (PSP or Red Tide) could limit the amount of scallops available for sale.

Paralytic Shellfish Poisoning (PSP or red tide) is another concern when farming scallops. The adductor muscle can be processed for sale to the traditional scallop meat market even when there is a PSP closure. On the other hand, the live animal market is stopped by PSP toxicity. Sewage Contamination (faecal coliform) is also monitored by the Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) to avoid this problem. These types of contaminants do not threaten the crop, it only causes a temporary displacement to the marketing of the product. Island Scallops’ aquaculture is not without total risk; however, the development program over the last decade has reduced the risk of disease and increased the historical grow-out survival rate to 95% over the past six years. Despite these advances, however, an outbreak of PSP, even if it did not affect Island Scallops’ stock, could have a depressive effect on the shellfish market in general, which could then adversely affect our business.

As recent as this past year, we believe that the mortality rates of our scallops were affected by high levels of PSP in our ocean farms. Although it did not harm any of our juvenile or mature scallops, it is believed that pre-metamorphic larvae are particularly susceptible. Procedures are now in place to prevent the introduction of toxic algae into the hatchery system in the coming years, however there can be no assurance that such procedures will forever prevent future PSP contamination.

Aquaculture and scallop farming is subject to a variety of general disease risks.

Bacteria are almost always associated with mortalities in the larval stages of growth. Control of disease outbreaks in the hatchery consists of regular inspection, growth rates, color and larvae is checked for proper shape. Proper hygiene practices within the hatchery minimize problems with Bacteria. In general, scallops are harder to handle and transport and care needs to be taken when moving them. Scallops can develop a stress related disease that can be avoided by proper handling conditions such as temperature, moisture rates and time before getting back in the water (maximum time being 24 hours).

Boring sponges and worms can adversely impact our scallop yield.

Boring sponges and worms are organisms that make holes in the scallop’s shell, weakening it and requiring the scallop to make repairs. Secreting additional layers of shell material to mend these holes directs energy away from growth and maintenance of the scallop. In cases of severe infestation, the adductor muscle may be reduced in weight by up to 50%, and the meat may be discolored.

Our business would be adversely affected if our scallop crop is infected by flatworm.

Flatworms can be devastating, destroying all seed within 2 weeks. Island Scallops has managed to minimize this problem and keep mortalities down by keeping the seeds in the pond a little longer so it becomes larger, making the time spent in the first net culture less. We then move the seeds to a larger mesh net culture, which causes the flatworms to fall off and no longer pose a problem. This husbandry technique alleviates the problem to a large degree.

Scallops raised in the open ocean are subject to a variety of predators that could adversely impact crop yield.

Starfish are a major predator of scallops, particularly in bottom culture. If the hanging techniques are far enough from the bottom, even during extreme low tides, this is not problematic. Since starfish and crabs have a free-swimming larval stage as part of their life cycle, it is possible that these larvae can settle within the “grow-out” nets and settle there and prey on these scallops. However, with proper husbandry techniques these effects can be minimized.

Our business would be adversely affected if a majority of our scallop crop experiences fouling.

Fouling is caused by settlement and growth of several organisms such as macroalgae, bryozoans, barnacles and mussels on the nets. Heavy fouling of culture nets and scallops impedes growth of the scallops. Since most fouling occurs in shallower waters, hanging scallops at deeper depths can reduce fouling. If culture systems are managed properly, fouling is not a problem.

Aquaculture can be subject to a variety of growing conditions that can adversely affect product growth and development.

Certain growing conditions and sea conditions can affect the quality and quantity of scallops produced, decreasing the supply of our products and negatively impacting profitability. Extreme wave actions tend to make scallops seasick. In cases of extreme seasickness, scallops stop feeding and growth is reduced. This may create mortality by weakening the scallops and making them susceptible to other problems and diseases. Currently, the water leases owned by Island Scallops are located in areas where this will prove to be less problematic. Additionally, if other environmental conditions are unfavorable, growing conditions in the ocean can greatly inhibit scallop growth. Generally this risk is mitigated by year-to-year variations in growing conditions. However, we cannot guarantee that we will not be negatively affected, at least in the short term, if we experience poor growing conditions.

Increased mortality rates would adversely impact our business.

In general, increased mortality rates in juveniles are due to improper feeding and hatchery husbandry. Once scallops are introduced to the ocean, increased mortality rates are caused by the above factors as well as fluctuations in salinity and currents. Given the location of Island Scallops’ current farming areas, the salinity and currents should not be problematic. Mortality rates can also increase due to overcrowding problems. In cases of extreme overcrowding scallops actually bite each other and their shells become damaged.

If we are unable to expand our tenures, our projected production may be delayed.

To increase our production capacity, we must expand our tenures. However, expanding tenures requires government approval, which can be a timely and costly process. Two of our tenures, Hindoo Creek and Deep Bay, have been approved for expansion. We received approval to convert another one of our tenures, our Nile Creek tenure to off-bottom growing, but we need to complete that construction before we can take full advantage of the conversion. Finally, our Denman tenure must be re-zoned before expansion thereof will be approved. Although we are confident that such approval will be granted after issues raised by local residents and fisherman, such as the use of surface floats for our longlines have been addressed, there is no guarantee that it will be granted. In the future, we will seek expansion of our other tenures, which also may not be granted. If we do not receive expansion approval for our Denman tenure, it will delay our proposed expansion.

Business Risks

We will require additional capital to fund our current business plan.

Our success is dependent on future financings. The aquaculture or marine farming industry is a capital-intensive business, which requires substantial capital expenditures to develop and acquire farms and to improve or expand current production. Further, the farming of marine life and acquisition of additional farms may require substantial amounts of working capital. We project the need for significant capital spending and increased working capital requirements over the next several years. There can be no assurance that we will be able to secure such financing on terms, which are acceptable, if at all. The failure to secure future financing with favorable terms could have a material adverse effect on our business and operations.

We are dependent on certain key existing and future personnel.

Our success will depend, to a large degree, upon the efforts and abilities of our officers and key management employees such as Mr. Saunders, Mr. Bruce Evans and Mr. Brendan Fralick. The loss of the services of one or more of these or other key employees could have a material adverse effect on our operations. We currently maintain key man life insurance on Mr. Saunders for a value of $1,000,000. We also had an employment agreement with Mr. Saunders that expired in June 2008, but are currently operating as if this employment agreement is still in effect as we discuss the terms of a new agreement with him. We do not maintain key man insurance for, nor do we currently have employment agreements with, any of our other key employees. In addition, as our business plan is implemented, we will need to recruit and retain additional management and key employees in virtually all phases of our operations. Key employees will require a strong background in the marine aquaculture industry. We cannot assure that we will be able to successfully attract and retain key personnel.

The fact that our directors and officers own approximately 28% of our capital stock and 56% of our voting capital stock may decrease your influence on shareholder decisions.

Our executive officers and directors, in the aggregate, beneficially own approximately 28% of our capital stock and 56% of our voting capital stock. As a result, our officers and directors, will have the ability to influence our management and affairs and the outcome of matters submitted to shareholders for approval, including the election and removal of directors, amendments to our bylaws and any merger, consolidation or sale of all or substantially all of our assets.

Our acquisitions and potential future acquisitions involve a number of risks.

Our potential future acquisitions involve risks associated with assimilating these operations into our company; integrating, retaining and motivating key personnel; integrating and managing geographically-dispersed operations integrating the technology and infrastructures of disparate entities; and risks inherent in the husbandry and farming of marine species.

We may have difficulty competing with larger and better-financed companies in our sector.

In general, the aquaculture industry is intensely competitive and highly fragmented. Many of our competitors have greater financial, technical, marketing and public relations resources than we presently have. Our sales may be harmed to the extent we are not able to compete successfully against such seafood producers.

Contamination of our seafood would harm our business.

Because our products are designed for human consumption, our business is subject to certain hazards and liabilities related to food products, such as contamination. A discovery of contamination in any of our products, through tampering or otherwise, could result in a recall of our products. Any such recall would significantly damage our reputation for product quality, which we believe is one of our principal competitive assets, and could seriously harm our business and sales. Although we maintain insurance to protect against such risks, we may not be able to maintain such insurance on acceptable terms and such insurance may not be adequate to cover any resulting liability.

We may experience barriers to conducting business due to potential government regulations.

There are no hatchery/producer competitors in the scallop farming business in British Columbia. The United States will not allow the farming of the species farmed in their waters, without undergoing an extensive environmental review which may prove costly and difficult. If these reviews are successful and US approval obtained, then this species could be cultured in US waters, which may provide increased competition for our products in the US.

Our business may be adversely affected by price volatility.

If market prices for Island Scallops’ products decrease, we will incur a loss of profits. However, our operational costs will increase because we will have to produce the same quantity to meet the current demand, which will decrease profit margin. This form of price volatility would be detrimental for our business.

Foreign exchange rates risks, political stability risk, and/or the imposition of adverse trade regulations could harm our business.

We conduct some of our business in foreign currencies. Our profitability depends in part on revenues received in United States dollars as a result of sales into the United States. A decline in the value of the United States dollar against the Canadian dollar would adversely affect earnings from sales in the United States. As part of our plans to acquire other businesses we may expand our operations to other countries, operate those businesses in foreign currencies, and export goods from those countries. Thus far, we have not engaged in any financial hedging activities to offset the risk of exchange rate fluctuations. We may in the future, on an as-needed basis, engage in limited financial hedging activities to offset the risk of exchange rate fluctuations. There is a risk that a shift in certain foreign exchange rates or the imposition of unforeseen and adverse political instability and/or trade regulations could adversely impact the costs of these items and the liquidity of our assets, and have an adverse impact on our operating results. In addition, the imposition of unforeseen and adverse trade regulations could have an adverse effect on our exported seafood operations. We expect the volume of international transactions to increase, which may increase our exposure to future exchange rate fluctuations.

We have one major customer and any disagreement with that customer could have a material adverse affect on our business.

As a result of our recent sales agreement with Fanny Bay, Fanny Bay has effectively become the sole distributor of our scallops outside of the European market. Such a large customer will account for a significant portion of our sales and, as a result, any disagreements or problems with Fanny Bay could have a material adverse effect on our business and operations.

Our common stock may be considered a “penny stock” and may be difficult to sell.

The SEC has adopted regulations which generally define a “penny stock” to be an equity security that has a market price of less than $5.00 per share or an exercise price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to specific exemptions. The market price of our common stock is less than $5.00 per share and, therefore, it may be designated as a “penny stock” according to SEC rules. This designation requires any broker or dealer selling these securities to disclose certain information concerning the transaction, obtain a written agreement from the purchaser and determine that the purchaser is reasonably suitable to purchase the securities. These rules may restrict the ability of brokers or dealers to sell our common stock and may affect the ability of investors to sell their shares.

Our Auditors have given the Company a “Going Concern” opinion, raising substantial doubt about our ability to continuing to fund our operations.

We have suffered operating losses since inception in our efforts to establish and execute our business strategy. As of August 31, 2008, we had a cash balance of approximately $712,000. Although management believes that we have adequate funds to maintain our business operations into the next fiscal year and/or until we become cash flow positive, we continued to suffer operational losses in our 2008 fiscal year. Until our operations are able to demonstrate and maintain positive cash flows, we may require additional working capital to fund our ongoing operations and execute our business strategy of expanding our operations. Based on these factors, there is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

ITEM 7. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Board of Directors of

Edgewater Foods International, Inc.

Qualicum Beach, British Columbia, Canada

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Edgewater Foods International, Inc. (the “Company”) as of August 31, 2008 and 2007, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders' equity (deficit), and cash flows for each of the years ended August 31, 2008 and 2007. 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 audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Edgewater Foods International, Inc. as of August 31, 2008 and 2007, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years ended August 31, 2008 and 2007 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

As discussed in Note 18 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company's absence of significant revenues, recurring losses from operations, and its need for additional financing in order to fund its projected loss in 2009 raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. The 2008 consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

EDGEWATER FOODS INTERNATIONAL, INC.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 1. Basis of Presentation, Organization and Nature of Operations

Edgewater Foods International Inc., a Nevada Corporation, is the parent company of Island Scallops Ltd., a Vancouver Island aquaculture company. Island Scallops was established in 1989 and for over 19 years has operated a scallop farming and marine hatchery business. Island Scallops is dedicated to the farming, processing and marketing of high quality, high value marine species (scallops).

Note 2. Significant Accounting Policies

Principles of Consolidation

Cash and equivalents

Cash and equivalents include cash, bank indebtedness, and highly liquid short term market investments with terms to maturity of three months or less. We consider all highly liquid investments with original maturities of 90 days or less to be cash equivalents. We maintain our cash balances primarily in a financial institution, which exceeded federally insured limits by $262,298 at August 31, 2008. We have not experienced any losses, in such accounts and believe it is not exposed to any significant credit risk on cash and cash equivalents.

Accounts receivable

Accounts receivable is presented a net of allowance for doubtful accounts. The allowance for doubtful accounts reflects estimates of probable losses in accounts receivable. The allowance is determined based on balances outstanding for over 90 days at the period end date, historical experience and other current information.

Loans receivable

Loans receivable is presented a net of an allowance for loan losses, as necessary. The loans are written off when collectability becomes uncertain.

Inventory

Edgewater maintains inventories of raw materials for its aquaculture products, of biomass (inventory of live aquaculture product being actively cultivated), and of finished goods (aquaculture product ready for sale).

F-6

At August 31, 2008 and 2007, inventory consisted of the Biomass (Scallops).

Reclassifications

Certain amounts in the 2007 financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the 2008 financial statement presentation.

Long term investments

Property, plant, and equipment

Property, plant and equipment are carried at cost, less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is included with general and administrative expenses and in some cases cost of goods sold in the accompanying statement of operations and calculated by using the straight-line method for financial reporting and accelerated methods for income tax purposes. The recovery classifications for these assets are listed as follows:

	Years
Facility and operating plant	20
Manufacturing equipment	3–7
Furniture and fixtures	2–7
Office equipment	5
Leasehold improvements	Life of lease
Property and equipment	5
Vehicles	5

Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged against income as incurred whereas major improvements are capitalized.

F-7

Change in Depreciation Method

Effective September 1, 2006, as a result of management’s evaluation of long-lived depreciable assets, we adopted the straight-line method of depreciation for all property, plant and equipment. Under the new provisions of SFAS No. 154 “Accounting Changes and Error Corrections, a replacement of APB Opinion No. 20 and FASB Statement No. 3,” which becomes effective as of September 1, 2006, a change in depreciation method is treated as a change in estimate. The effect of the change in depreciation method will be reflected on a prospective basis beginning September 1, 2006, and prior period results will not be restated. As the results of management’s evaluation indicated the current estimated useful lives of our assets were appropriate, the depreciable lives of property, plant and equipment will not be changed. We believe that the change from the declining balance depreciation method to the straight-line method will better reflect the pattern of consumption of the future benefits to be derived from those assets being depreciated and will provide a better matching of costs and revenues over the assets’ estimated useful lives.

Impairment of long-lived assets

We monitor the recoverability of long-lived assets, including property, plant and equipment and intangible assets, based upon estimates using factors such as expected future asset utilization, business climate, and undiscounted cash flows resulting from the use of the related assets or to be realized on sale. Our policy is to write down assets to the estimated net recoverable amount, in the period in which it is determined likely that the carrying amount of the asset will not be recoverable. At August 31, 2008 no indication of impairment was present.

Government assistance

Government assistance we receive, such as grants, subsidies, and tax credits, is recorded as a recovery of the appropriate related expenditure in the period that the assistance is received.

We have received government assistance in the form of loans, for which repayment may not be required if we fail to meet sufficient future revenue levels to repay these loans based on a percentage of gross sales for certain products over a defined period of time. Such assistance, if received, is initially recorded as a liability, until such time as all conditions for forgiveness are met, and is then recognized as other income in that period.

Farm license costs

We must pay annual license costs in respect to government-granted tenures that it holds, which gives us the right to use certain offshore ocean waters for the purpose of aquaculture farming. Such license costs are recognized as an expense over the period of the license.

Research and development costs

Research costs are expensed when incurred.

F-8

Income taxes

We calculate our provision for income taxes in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109 (Accounting for Income Taxes) (“SFAS 109”), which requires an asset and liability approach to financial accounting for income taxes. This approach recognizes the amount of taxes payable or refundable for the current year, as well as deferred tax assets and liabilities attributable to the future tax consequences of events recognized in the financial statements and tax returns. Deferred income taxes are adjusted to reflect the effects of enacted changes in tax laws or tax rates. Deferred income tax assets are recorded in the financial statements if realization is considered more likely than not.

Revenue recognition

We recognize revenue when it is realized or realizable, and earned. We consider revenue realized or realizable and earned when it has persuasive evidence of a contract, the product has been delivered or the services have been provided to the customer, the sales price is fixed or determinable, and collectability is reasonably assured.

Our revenue is derived principally from the sale of scallops we produce or purchase from third parties, and from the sale of seed and farm supplies to other aquaculture farms.

Cost of goods

Financial instruments

The carrying amount of our financial instruments, which includes cash, accounts receivable, loans receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, short term debt, shareholder debt, and long term debt, approximate fair value based on either i) the short-term nature of the instrument or ii) the reasonableness of the interest rate as compared to market rates for the long-term instruments. It is management’s opinion that we are not exposed to significant interest, currency or credit risk arising from these financial instruments unless otherwise noted.

Derivative Financial Instruments

F-9

Derivative financial instruments that are not designated as hedges or that do not meet the criteria for hedge accounting under SFAS No. 133 are recorded at fair value, with gains or losses reported currently in earnings. All derivative financial instruments we held as of August 31, 2008, were not designated as hedges.

Foreign exchange

The functional currency of our foreign subsidiary is the local foreign currency (Canadian dollars). All assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate prevailing on the balance sheet date. Revenues, costs and expenses are translated at average rates of exchange prevailing during the period. Translation adjustments resulting from translation of the subsidiaries' accounts are accumulated as a separate component of shareholders' equity. Gains and losses resulting from foreign currency transactions are included in the consolidated statements of operations and have not been significant.

Use of estimates

Concentration of risk

We operate in the regulated aquaculture industry. Material changes in this industry or the applicable regulations could have a significant impact on our business.

F-10

The quality and quantity of the aquaculture products we cultivate, harvest and process could be impacted by biological and environmental risks such as contamination, parasites, predators, disease and pollution. These factors could severely restrict our ability to successfully market our products.

During the year ended August 31, 2008, five customers, Sea World Fisheries, Turning Point, Organic Ocean Seafood, Inc., TriStar Seafood Supply Ltd. And Port Hardy Seafood Ltd., individually accounted for 12%, 12%, 10%, 9% and 5% or our revenues respectively, and we therefore are materially dependent upon such customers. During the year ended August 31, 2007, four customers, Sea World Fisheries, TriStar Seafood Supply Ltd., Port Hardy Seafood Ltd. and Lobsterman, individually accounted for 17%, 13%, 12% and 12% or our revenues respectively, and we therefore are materially dependent upon such customers. Our ongoing operations are dependent on continued business from these customers.

Location risk

Most, if not all, of our aquaculture are concentrated in one growing region off the coast of Vancouver Island, British Columbia. As such, if there were a major environmental disaster, our ongoing operations could be materially impacted.

Stock-based compensation

We account for stock-based employee compensation arrangements using the fair value method in accordance with the provisions of the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No, 123 (revised 2004) (Share-Based Payment) (“SFAS 123R”). SFAS 123R is a revision of SFAS 123 (Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation), and supersedes Accounting Principles Beard (“APB”) Opinion No. 25 (Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees). SFAS 123R requires that the fair value of employees awards issued, modified, repurchased or cancelled after implementation, under share-based payment arrangements, be measured as of the date the award is issued, modified, repurchased or cancelled. The resulting cost is then recognized in the statement of earnings over the service period.

We periodically issue common stock for acquisitions and services rendered. Common stock issued is valued at the estimated fair market value, as determined by our management and board of directors. Management and the board of directors consider market price quotations, recent stock offering prices and other factors in determining fair market value for purposes of valuing the common stock. The fair value of each option granted is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the various weighted average assumptions, including dividend yield, expected volatility, average risk-free interest rate and expected lives.

Basic and diluted net loss per share

Basic income or loss per share includes no dilution and is computed by dividing net income or loss by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted income or loss per share includes the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock (using the treasury stock method for stock options and using the if-converted method for convertible notes), if dilutive.

F-11

The following is a reconciliation of the numerators and denominators of the basic and diluted net income per share computations:

	Year ending August 31, 2008			Year ending August 31, 2007
Numerator:
Net income (loss) applicable to common shareholders	$	(4,575,010	)	$	3,538,559

Denominator:		--			--
Denominator for basic net income per share:		23,993,935			22,228,633

Weighted average dilutive potential common shares

Series A Preferred Stock		-			7,752,699
Series B Preferred Stock		-			1,114,574
Series C Preferred Stock		-			-
Series D Preferred Stock		-			-
Options and warrants		-			1,177,982

Denominator for diluted net income per share		23,993,935			32,273,888

Basic net income (loss) per share	$	(0.19	)	$	0.16

Diluted net income (loss) per share	$	(0.19	)	$	0.11

The treasury stock effect of options and warrants to purchase shares of common stock outstanding at August 31, 2008 has not been included in the calculation of the net loss per share as such effect would have been anti-dilutive. As a result of these items, the basic and diluted loss per share for the year ending August 31, 2008 presented are identical.

Recent accounting pronouncements

In December 2007, the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) issued Staff Accounting Bulletin 110 (“SAB 110”). SAB 110 states that the staff will continue to accept, under certain circumstances, the use of the simplified method for estimating the expected term of “plain vanilla” share options in accordance with SFAS 123(R) beyond December 31, 2007. The Company believes there will be no material impact on the Company’s financial statements upon adoption of this standard.

F-12

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, “Non-controlling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements, and an amendment of ARB Statement No. 51.” SFAS No. 160 amends Accounting Research Bulletin (ARB) No. 51, “Consolidated Financial Statements,” to establish accounting and reporting standards for the non-controlling interest in a subsidiary and for the deconsolidation of a subsidiary. SFAS No. 160 clarifies that a non-controlling interest in a subsidiary, which is sometimes referred to as a minority interest, is an ownership interest in the consolidated entity that should be reported as a component of equity in the consolidated financial statements. Among other requirements, SFAS No. 160 requires consolidated net income to be reported at amounts that include the amounts attributable to both the parent and the non-controlling interest. It also requires disclosure, on the face of the consolidated income statement, of the amounts of consolidated net income attributable to the parent and the non-controlling interest. SFAS No. 160 will be effective for the Company on August 31, 2009, and is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s financial condition or results of operations.

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141(R), “Business Combinations (Revised)”, to replace SFAS No. 141, “Business Combinations. SFAS No. 141(R) requires the use of the acquisition method of accounting, defines the acquirer, establishes the acquisition date and broadens the scope to all transactions and other events in which one entity obtains control over one or more other businesses. This statement is effective for business combinations or transactions entered into for fiscal years beginning on or after December 15, 2008. The Company is evaluating the impact of SFAS No. 141 (R).

Management has evaluated other recent accounting pronouncements and does not believe that the adoption of these would have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

Note 4. Related Party Transactions

At August 31, 2008, we have five secured notes receivable from RKS Laboratories, Inc., a Vancouver research and development company that is working towards developing superior strains of scallops with beneficial traits such as higher meat yield and rapid growth. Robert Saunders, our President and CEO, owns 100% of RKS. The first non-interest bearing notes in the combined amount of $81,982 which are secured by all assets of RKS, were originally due on or before various dates between June 15, 2007 and August 31, 2008, but were recently extended to August 31, 2009. The second non-interest bearing note in the amount of $5,328, which is also secured by all assets of RKS, is due on or before November 30, 2008. The fourth non-interest bearing note in the amount of $19,486, which is also secured by all assets of RKS, is due on or before February 28, 2009. The fourth non-interest bearing note in the amount of $2,257, which is also secured by all assets of RKS, is due on or before May 31, 2009. The fifth non-interest bearing note in the amount of $5,026, which is also secured by all assets of RKS, is due on or before August 31, 2009. These amounts are included in assets as loans receivable.

F-14

Note 5. Investments in Tenures

Edgewater carries its Investment in Tenures at $3,758 and $3,770 at August 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively. This amount represents the carrying costs of certain shellfish tenures acquired by Island Scallops’ subsidiary, 377332 B.C. Ltd. Shellfish tenures are government-granted rights allowing limited use of offshore waters for the purposes of cultivation of shellfish. The granting of shellfish tenure rights are the responsibility of the Provincial (British Columbia) Government and not the Canadian Federal Government. As such, the government assistance that we receive via loan agreement with various Federal Agencies has no effect on our ability to renew and/or modify these tenure agreements. The tenure held by 377332 B.C. Ltd. has an expiration date of July 10, 2021. Other shellfish tenures held by Edgewater and our subsidiaries have expiration dates ranging from 2021 to 2024.

These tenures are considered to have an indefinite useful life because renewal on expiration is anticipated, and are not subject to amortization.

Note 6. Accounts Payable and Accrued Liabilities

Included in accounts payable and accrued liabilities are balances outstanding related to credit cards held in the name of one of our shareholders totaling $33,292 and $25,578 at August 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively. We used these credit cards as a means of short term financing and incur interest charges on such unpaid balances.

Included in accounts payable and accrued liabilities at August 31, 2008, is an amount of $131,859 in respect to an agreement to purchase geoduck seed from us (for additional information see Note 13 – Contingent Liabilities).

Included in accounts payable and accrued liabilities at August 31, 2008 and 2007, is $95,065 and $87,869 of principal due and interest accrued in respect to the loan from the National Research Council of Canada Industrial Research Assistance Program (see Note 9 – Long Term Debt for additional information).

Note 7. Short Term Debt

Included in short-term debt at August 31, 2008, are estimated royalties of $62,522 payable to a third party from whom the former sole shareholder of Island Scallops originally acquired the shares of Island Scallops. The 1992 share purchase agreement (for Island Scallops) provided that the third party was to receive 3% of revenues from Island Scallops as earned, on a quarterly basis, throughout the period from December 1, 1992 to November 30, 2002. The third party holds a first charge (or first lien) over our inventory (including broodstock) in the amount of $328,793 in support of its royalty entitlement. The third party has not taken further action to enforce payment of the arrears liability. To date, we have accrued the entire balance of $62,522 as a current liability and we plan to pay it with available funds in the near future.

Included in short-term notes payable at August 31, 2008, is an unsecured non-interest bearing demand loan payable to an individual with a face value of $47,126 and no specific terms of repayment. However, the lender had previously informally requested that the loan be repaid in full by October 6, 2008.

F-15

Note 8. Line of Credit

Included in line of credit at August 31, 2008 are two bank lines of credit. The first line is a $78,000 bank line of credit for Island Scallops. The interest rate on the line of credit is 7.5% as of August 31, 2008. At August 31, 2008, the balance due is $77,795. The second line is a $50,000 bank line of credit for Island Scallops. The interest rate on the line of credit is 6.5% as of August 31, 2008. At August 31, 2008, the balance due is $46,971. This second line of credit is subject to a personal guarantee by our Chairman and CEO, Robert Saunders.

Note 9. Long Term Debt

These consolidated financial statements include a Western Diversification Program non-interest bearing loan to Island Scallops that requires repayment equal to 12% of gross revenues from our scallop sales, payable semi-annually, with no specified due date. The repayment terms have been formally amended several times. Most recently, in June 2008, the Western Diversification Program agreed to allow Island Scallops to suspend repayment of the roughly $402,000 loan until October 2008. Starting in October 2008, Island Scallops began repaying the loan at a rate of $9,394 per month for five months. Once Island Scallops has completed these five months of loan payments are completed, the Western Diversification Program has agreed to base quarterly repayments on 3% of the gross scallop sales (as opposed to the originally agreed upon 4%) or $23,485 whichever is greater. The company is currently seeking to renegotiate this new agreement to further extend the repayment terms. At August 31, 2008, the balance due is $381,286, of which $117,426 is reflected in the current portion of long term debt and the remaining balance of $284,970 is reflected as long term debt.

These consolidated financial statements include Island Scallops’ unsecured loan from the National Research Council of Canada Industrial Research Assistance Program which requires quarterly payments commencing March 1, 2003 equal to 3% of gross revenues of Island Scallops until the earlier of full repayment or December 1, 2012. If at December 1, 2012, Island Scallops has not earned sufficient revenues to be required to repay the original loan amount, the remaining portion of the loan is to be forgiven. Amounts currently due at August 31, 2008, bear interest at a rate of 1% per month. At August 31, 2008, Island Scallops is in arrears in respect to the payment of these amounts. The National Council of Canada Industrial Research Assistance Program has requested payment of the $95,065 that they claim is owed under this loan agreement. As such, at August 31, 2008, $95,065 is included in accounts payable and accrued liabilities and the remaining full principal balance of $279,459 is reflected in the current portion of long term debt. We are seeking to renegotiate the repayment terms.

These consolidated financial statements include Island Scallop’s mortgage loan repayable at $2,677 per month (currently interest only calculated at 10.5% per annum). The loan is secured by a second charge on the real property of Island Scallops. At August 31, 2008, the principal due is $263,034.

F-16

As a result, at August 31, 2008, we had $944,889 of long-term debt less a current portion of $396,885 for a balance of $548,004. Principal payments due within each of the next five fiscal years and subsequently, in respect to long term debt are approximately as follows:

2009	$	396,885
2010		187,882
2011		93,941
2012		3,147

Note 10. Series C Preferred Stock Financing

We completed a private equity financing of $897,444 on November 5, 2007, with one accredited investor. Net proceeds from the offering are approximately $801,000. As part of this financing, the investor returned the Series J Warrant, Series D Warrant, Series E Warrant and Series F Warrant that they received as a result of our Series B financing completed on January 16, 2007. Pursuant to this financing, we issued 747,870 shares of our Series C Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share and the investor also received one of each of the following warrants: (i) Series A Warrant, (ii) Series B Warrant, (iii) Series C Warrant, (iv) Series J Warrant, (v) Series D Warrant, (vi) Series E Warrant, and (vii) Series F Warrant, each to purchase a number of shares of common stock equal to fifty percent (50%) of the number of shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the purchaser’s preferred stock, except for the Series J Warrants, which shall entitle the investor to purchase a number of shares of our Series C Preferred Stock equal to one hundred percent (100%) of the number of Series C Preferred Stock it received in the financing. Each of the Warrants has a term of 5 years, except for the Series J Warrants, which have a term of 1 year. Each share of the preferred stock is convertible into one fully paid and nonassessable share of our common stock at an initial conversion price of $1.20, subject to adjustment. We are obligated to file a registration statement on or before December 5, 2007 providing for the resale of the shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the preferred stock and the shares of common stock underlying the Warrants and underlying the preferred stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants. In connection with the financing, our management agreed not to sell any of our securities owned by them, their affiliates or anyone they have influence over until the registration statement has been effective for nine months. In connection with the financing, a deemed dividend was recorded for $163,386 based on the relative fair values of the preferred shares and warrants.

In connection with this financing, we paid cash compensation to a placement consultant in the amount of approximately $72,000 and issued him placement consultant warrants, exercisable for a period of three years from the date of issue. The placement consultant's warrants allow him to purchase up to (i) 74,787 shares of Series C Preferred Stock, and each of the following warrants, which are identical to the warrants issued to the investors of the financing: (i) Series A Warrant, (ii) Series B Warrant, (iii) Series C Warrant, (iv) Series D Warrant, (v) Series J Warrant, (vi) Series E Warrant, and (vii) Series F Warrant, each to purchase 37,393 shares of common stock, except for the Series J Warrants, which shall entitle the Consultant to purchase 74,787 shares of our Series C Preferred Stock.

The net proceeds from the financing are to be used for working capital and general corporate purposes.

Note 11. Series D Preferred Stock Financing

On May 29, 2008, we signed a Series D Convertible Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement with one accredited investor whereby such investor was committed, subject to the satisfaction of certain closing conditions, to purchase $1,500,000 of our Series D Preferred Shares. As part of this financing, we also entered into an Exchange Agreement with the investor and certain other holders of our outstanding warrants, whereby the Series J Warrant that the investor received pursuant to the financing we closed on November 5, 2007, as disclosed in the Form 8-K filed on November 7, 2007, was cancelled, and the investor and certain other holders of our outstanding warrants returned to us warrants to purchase an aggregate of 24,941,605 shares of our common stock, which the investor and such other warrant holders received pursuant to the financings we closed on: (i) April 12, 2006, as disclosed in our Form 8-K filed on April 14, 2007; (ii) May 30, 2006, as disclosed in our Form 8-K filed on May 30, 2006; and (iii) November 5, 2007, as disclosed in our Form 8-K filed on November 7, 2007, in exchange for an aggregate of 267,059 Series D Preferred Shares. The net proceeds from the financing are to be used for supplies, processing plant upgrades, working capital and general corporate purposes. All of the closing conditions were satisfied and accordingly we completed the private equity financing and received net proceeds of approximately $1.46 million on June 11, 2008. In connection with the financing, a deemed dividend was recorded for $100,360 based on the relative fair values of the preferred shares and exchanged warrants.

Pursuant to the financing, we filed a Certificate of Designation of the Relative Rights and Preferences of our Series D Convertible Preferred Stock on May 29, 2008. The Certificate of Designation designates 380,000 shares of our authorized preferred stock as Series D Convertible Preferred Stock, which ranks junior to our Series A, Series B and Series C Convertible Preferred Stock, but senior to our common stock. Except with respect to specified transactions that may affect the rights, preferences, privileges or voting power of the Series D Preferred Shares and except as otherwise required by Nevada law, the Series D Preferred Shares have no voting rights. At any time on or after the issuance date, the holder of any Series D Preferred Shares may, at the holder's option, elect to convert all or any portion of the Series D Preferred Shares held by such person into a number of fully paid and nonassessable shares of common stock equal to the quotient of (i) the stated value ($40.00 per share) of the Series D Preferred Shares being converted divided by (ii) the conversion price, which initially is $0.80 per share, subject to certain adjustments. In the event of our liquidation, dissolution or winding up, the holders shall receive a liquidation preference equal to 120% of the stated value per Series D Preferred Share.

Note 12. Preferred Stock Dividends

On December 31, 2006, we issued 138,565 shares of common stock to the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock holders.

Note 13. Contingent Liabilities

Our wholly owned subsidiary, Island Scallops, entered into an agreement in 1998 with two parties, under which Island Scallops was to produce and sell geoduck seed to the two parties. Island Scallops received advance payments from each of the two parties in 2002 of approximately $64,140 and recognized related revenue of $43,705 in respect to seed delivered in 2002. The balance of the deposits received (advance payments), net of sales, totaling $131,859, is included in accounts payable and accrued liabilities.

Management’s position is that the two parties violated the terms of the agreement and we are therefore entitled to retain the balance of the deposits. Per the terms of the original agreement, Island Scallops was entitled to make up any shortfall in the product produced in the following year. Although product was available and offered by Island Scallops in the following year, the two parties refused to honor the terms of the agreement and would not accept the product (to make up the shortfall) in the following year.

As of August 31, 2004, one of the two parties made claims that Island Scallops owed it an amount totaling $88,925. This particular party believed that the agreement required Island Scallops to deliver the product in year one and did not allow Island Scallops to make up any shortfall with product produced in the following year. The balance included in accounts payable and accrued liabilities related to this party is $35,228.

Any additional liability to us, or any reduction of the currently recognized liability, in respect to these deposits will be recorded at the time a conclusion to this matter can be determined.

F-20

Neither we nor our wholly owned subsidiary maintain insurance covering the replacement of our inventory. Consequently, we are exposed to financial losses or failure as a result of this risk.

Note 14. Income Taxes

We did not provide any current or deferred United States federal, state or foreign income tax provision or benefit for the period presented because we have experienced operation losses since inception. We have provided a full valuation allowance on the deferred tax asset, consisting primarily of unclaimed research and development expenditures, because of uncertainty regarding our ability to realize the benefit.

Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effect of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. Significant components of the net deferred taxes at August 31, 2008 and 2007 are as follows:

	August 31,			August 31,
	2008			2007
Deferred tax asset attributable to:
Net operating loss carryover	$	4,386,000		$	3,541,000
Less, valuation allowance		(4,386,000	)		(3,541,000	)
Total net deferred tax asset	$	-		$	-

We follow Statement of Financial Accounting Standards Number 109 (SFAS 109), “Accounting for Income Taxes.” SFAS No. 109 requires a valuation allowance, if any, to reduce the deferred tax assets reported if, based on the weight of the evidence, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Management has determined that a valuation allowance of approximately $4,386,000 and $3,541,000 at August 31, 2008 and 2007 is necessary to reduce the deferred tax assets to the amount that will more than likely than not be realized. The change in valuation allowance for 2008 and 2007 was approximately $845,000 and $1,117,000 respectively.

At August 31, 2008, and 2007 we had net operating loss carryforwards amounting to approximately $2,336,000 and $6,960,000 for U.S. and Canadian tax purposes, respectively, that expires in various amounts beginning in 2009 and 2009 in the U.S. and Canada, respectively.

The federal statutory tax rate reconciled to the effective tax rate for 2008 and 2007 are as follows:

	2008			2007
Tax at U.S. statutory rate		34.0	%		34	%
State tax rate, net of federal benefits		0.0			0.0
Foreign tax rate in excess of U.S. statutory rate		17.6	%		17.6	%
Change in valuation allowance		(51.6	%)		(51.6	%)
Effective tax rate		0.0	%		0.0	%

Note 15. Stock-Compensation and Option Expense

Stock Compensation

In June 2007, our wholly owned subsidiary, Island Scallops, Ltd. entered into a Consulting Agreement with Pacific Crab Co., pursuant to which ISL will issue a total of 100,000 shares of our common stock in exchange for consulting and marketing services Pacific will provide to ISL. Pursuant to the agreement, ISL issued 40,000 of such shares to Pacific when the Agreement was signed; the remaining 60,000 shares will vest ratably (5,000 shares per month) at the beginning of each month for each month during the term of the agreement, which initially is twelve months. ISL also agreed that if certain goals are met within the agreed upon timeframe, it will issue 15,000 shares to Pacific at such time as the goals are reached, in which case the remaining 45,000 shares will continue to vest as described above. The 40,000 shares issued were valued at $1.55 per share, the closing bid of our common stock on the date of issue. Therefore, total aggregate value of the transaction recognized by the company in 2007 was $62,000. Going forward the cost of these shares will be expense at current market price as they are issued.

On January 1, 2008 we issued 5,000 shares of common stock to Pacific Crab Seafood Company, Inc. as part of the 100,000 shares of our common stock that our Board of Directors previously approved for the consulting and marketing services that they will provide to us. The remaining 25,000 shares will be issued in equal monthly installments of 5,000 shares during the remaining term of the agreement. The shares were issued in accordance with the exemption from the registration provisions of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, provided by Section 4(2) of such Act for issuances not involving any public offering. The 5,000 shares issued were valued at $1.35 per share, the closing bid of our common stock on the date of issue. Therefore, total aggregate value of the transaction recognized by the company was $6,750. Going forward the cost of these shares will be expense at current market price as they are issued.

On April 1, 2008, we issued 25,000 shares of common stock to Consulting for Strategic Growth, Inc. as part of the 25,000 shares of our common stock that our Board of Directors previously approved for the consulting and investor relations services that they will provide to us. The shares were issued in accordance with the exemption from the registration provisions of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, provided by Section 4(2) of such Act for issuances not involving any public offering. The 25,000 shares issued were valued at $0.95 per share, the closing bid of our common stock on the date of issue. Therefore, total aggregate value of the transaction recognized by the company was $23,750. Going forward the cost of these shares will be expense at current market price as they are issued.

Stock Options

In August 2005, our Board of Directors approved the “Edgewater Foods International 2005 Equity Incentive Plan.” The Board of Directors reserved 5,000,000 shares of our common stock to be issued in the form of incentive and/or non-qualified stock options for employees, directors and consultants to Edgewater. As of August 31, 2008, our Board of Directors had authorized the issuance of 2,962,000 options to employees.

During the years ended August 31, 2008 and 2007, $1,780,882 and $486,118 in stock option expenses were recognized respectively. An additional, $6,789 will be recognized in the three month period ending November 30, 2009.

Corporate Offices

Employment Agreements

We entered into an employment agreement with Mr. Robert Saunders as our Chairman and President effective on June 29, 2005. Subsequently in August 2005, Mr. Saunders was appointed CEO by our Board of Directors. Mr. Saunders will serve at the pleasure of the Board of Directors. For serving as President, Mr. Saunders’ compensation will be US $60,000 per annum. Additionally, we agreed to grant Mr. Saunders a signing bonus of US $150,000 to be paid on closing of at least US $3,500,000 in third party financing and increase his compensation to $120,000 per annum if we receive at least US $5,000,000 in outside funding. After the completion of our Series A Preferred Stock Financing, Mr. Saunders was due the signing bonus of $150,000 and a monthly salary of $10,000 per month beginning in August 2006. However, Mr. Saunders agreed to reduce his monthly salary to $5,000 per month until such time that we become significantly cash flow positive for its operations.

Additionally, we are currently discussing possible restructuring/payment terms of the accrued salary of $190,000 as of August 31, 2008 until such time that we become significantly cash flow positive for its operations. As of August 31, 2008, the term of the initial employment agreement had expired and we are currently discussing finalizing a new employment agreement.

On September 8, 2008, our board of directors authorized the issuance of an aggregate of 100,000 options to purchase our common stock to one of our directors pursuant to the “Edgewater Foods International 2005 Equity Incentive Plan.” The options vest in two equal installments over the next two years (on September 8, 2009 and 2010). Each option is exercisable for a period of five years from the issuance date and has an exercise price of $0.45 respectively. Pursuant to this option, we will incur approximately an additional $43,000 through August 31, 2010. We used the Black Scholes option-pricing model with the following assumptions: an expected life equal to the contractual term of the options (five), underlying stock price of $0.45 per share, no dividends; a risk free rate of 2.96%, which equals the one, three and six-year yield on Treasury bonds at constant (or fixed) maturity and volatility of 175%. However, at the date of this Report, we have not yet issued this option.

In November 2008, our wholly owned subsidiary – Island Scallops, Ltd., entered into a Share Exchange Agreement with Granscal Sea Farms Ltd., a Kanish Bay Company and Granscal’s sole shareholder. Pursuant to the Agreement, Granscal’s sole shareholder shall assign and transfer all of his Granscal shares to Island Scallop in exchange for: (i) 400,000 restricted shares of our common stock; (ii) a sum equal to 50% of the gross revenue Island Scallops earns on account of the sale of Granscal’s 2004, 2005 and 2006 brood year inventory currently in the water – to be paid out as and when Island Scallops receives it; and (iii) an aggregate cash fee of $30,000. Pursuant to the Agreement; Island Scallops also agreed to pay the $35,000 that Granscal owes to the Bank of Montreal.

The $30,000 cash fee shall be paid in $5,000 monthly installments beginning on September 30, 2008 and continuing until the cash fee is fully paid. The cash fee is secured by a Promissory Note between Island Scallop and Granscal’s sole shareholder, who is also Granscal’s Chief Executive Officer. The Promissory Note does not contain any interest, but is immediately due and payable if Island Scallop remains in default of the Promissory Note after a10 day cure period. Pursuant to the Promissory Note, Granscal shall have a security interest in one of Island Scallops commercial vessels until the Promissory Note is fully repaid.

Note 18. Going Concern

Prior to the completion of our initial Preferred Stock Financing, working capital had been primarily financed with various forms of debt. We have suffered operating losses since inception in our efforts to establish and execute our business strategy. As of August 31, 2008, we had a cash balance of approximately $712,000. After the completion of the recent Series D preferred financing (see Note 11 – Series D Preferred Stock Financing for additional information), management believed that we had adequate funds to maintain our business operations into our 2009 fiscal year and/or until we become cash flow positive, but we continued to suffer operational losses in our 2008 fiscal year. Until our operations are able to demonstrate and maintain positive cash flows, we may require additional working capital to fund our ongoing operations and execute our business strategy of expanding our operations. In fact, based on our current estimates of future sales and capital costs of expanding our farms in order to increase future crop yields, we will require additional financings to continue expand our operations. Based on these factors, there is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

F-26

The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should we be unable to continue as a going concern. Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon our ability to generate sufficient cash flows to meet our obligations on a timely basis and ultimately to attain profitability. Our management intends to obtain working capital through operations and to seek additional funding through debt and equity offerings to help fund our operations as we expand. There is no assurance that we will be successful in our efforts to raise additional working capital or achieve profitable operations. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Note 19. Foreign Operations

Our share of net assets held outside the United States totaled approximately $6,653,000 and $5,007,000 at August 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively.

We have had no disagreements with our certified public accountants with respect to accounting practices or procedures or financial disclosure.

ITEM 8A.

CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Quarterly Evaluation of Controls

As of the end of the period covered by this annual report on Form 10-K, the Company evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of (i) their disclosure controls and procedures, and (ii) their internal control over financial reporting. The evaluators who performed this evaluation were our Chief Executive Officer, Robert Saunders and Acting Chief Accounting Officer, Michael Boswell; their conclusions, based on and as of the date of the Evaluation (i) with respect to the effectiveness of our Disclosure Controls and (ii) with respect to any change in our Internal Controls that occurred during the most recent fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect our Internal Controls are presented below.

CEO and CFO Certifications

Attached to this annual report, as Exhibits 31.1 and 31.2, are certain certifications of the CEO and Acting CAO, which are required in accordance with the Exchange Act and the Commission’s rules implementing such section (the "Rule 13a-14(a)/15d-14(a) Certifications"). This section of the annual report contains the information concerning the Evaluation referred to in the Rule 13a-14(a)/15d-14(a) Certifications. This information should be read in conjunction with the Rule 13a-14(a)/15d-14(a) Certifications for a more complete understanding of the topic presented.

Disclosure Controls and Internal Controls

Disclosure Controls are procedures designed with the objective of ensuring that information required to be disclosed in the Company's reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Exchange Act, such as this annual report, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time period specified in the Commission’s rules and forms. Disclosure Controls are also designed with the objective of ensuring that material information relating to the Company is made known to the CEO and the Acting CAO by others, particularly during the period in which the applicable report is being prepared. Internal Controls, on the other hand, are procedures which are designed with the objective of providing reasonable assurance that (i) the Company's transactions are properly authorized, (ii) the Company’s assets are safeguarded against unauthorized or improper use, and (iii) the Company's transactions are properly recorded and reported, all to permit the preparation of complete and accurate financial statements in conformity with accounting principals generally accepted in the United States.

Limitations on the Effectiveness of Controls

The Company's management does not expect that their Disclosure Controls or their Internal Controls will prevent all error and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well developed and operated, can provide only reasonable, but not absolute assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of the 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, within the Company 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 control. The design of a 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 objectives under all potential future conditions. Over time, control may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or because the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.

Scope of the Evaluation

The CEO and Acting CAO’s evaluation of the our Disclosure Controls and Internal Controls included a review of the controls’ (i) objectives, (ii) design, (iii) implementation, and (iv) the effect of the controls on the information generated for use in this annual report. In the course of the Evaluation, the CEO and Acting CAO sought to identify data errors, control problems, acts of fraud, and they sought to confirm that appropriate corrective action, including process improvements, was being undertaken. This type of evaluation is done on a quarterly basis so that the conclusions concerning the effectiveness of our controls can be reported in our quarterly reports on Form 10-K and annual reports on Form 10-K. The overall goals of these various evaluation activities are to monitor our Disclosure Controls and Internal Controls, and to make modifications if and as necessary. Our external auditors also review Internal Controls in connection with their audit and review activities. Our intent in this regard is that the Disclosure Controls and the Internal Controls will be maintained as dynamic systems that change (including improvements and corrections) as conditions warrant.

Among other matters, the Evaluation was to determine whether there were any significant deficiencies or material weaknesses in our Internal Controls, which are reasonably likely to adversely affect our ability to record, process, summarize and report financial information, or whether the Evaluators identified any acts of fraud, whether or not material, involving management or other employees who have a significant role in our Internal Controls. This information was important for both the Evaluation, generally, and because the Rule 13a-14(a)/15d-14(a) Certifications, Item 5, require that the CEO and Acting CAO disclose that information to our Board (audit committee), and our independent auditors, and to report on related matters in this section of the annual report. In the professional auditing literature, "significant deficiencies" are referred to as "reportable conditions". These are control issues that could have significant adverse affect on the ability to record, process, summarize and report financial data in the financial statements. A "material weakness" is defined in the auditing literature as a particularly serious reportable condition where the internal control does not reduce, to a relatively low level, the risk that misstatement cause by error or fraud may occur in amounts that would be material in relation to the financial statements and not be detected within a timely period by employee in the normal course of performing their assigned functions. The Evaluators also sought to deal with other controls matters in the Evaluation, and in each case, if a problem was identified, they considered what revisions, improvements and/or corrections to make in accordance with our ongoing procedures.

Conclusions

Based upon the Evaluation, our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving our objectives. Our CEO and Acting CAO concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective at that reasonable assurance level to ensure that material information relating to us is made known to management, including the CEO and Acting CFO, particularly during the period when our periodic reports are being prepared, and that our Internal Controls are effective at that assurance level to provide reasonable assurance that our financial statements are fairly presented inconformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. Additionally, there has been no change in our Internal Controls that occurred during our most recent fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to affect, our Internal Controls.

Management’s Report on Internal Controls Over Financial Reporting

Board of Directors and Edgewater Foods International, Inc:

The Management of Edgewater Foods International, Inc is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting for the Company. The Company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with U. S. generally accepted accounting principles. The Company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that: (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the Company’s assets, (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with U. S. generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the Company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the Company; (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention of timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the Company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements, and (iv) provide reasonable assurance that receipts and expenditures of the Company are being made only in accordance with authorization of management and directors of the Company.

Internal control over financial reporting includes the controls themselves, monitoring and internal auditing practices and actions taken to correct deficiencies as identified.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting, no matter how well designed, may not prevent or detect misstatements. Accordingly, even effective internal control over financial reporting can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation. Also, the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting was made as of a specific date. Projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Management conducted an assessment of the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of August 31, 2008, based on criteria for effective internal control over financial reporting described in “Internal Control—Integrated Framework” issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Management’s assessment included an evaluation of the design of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting and testing of the operational effectiveness of its internal control over financial reporting. Management reviewed the results of its assessment with the Audit Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors.

Based on this assessment, management determined that, as of August 31, 2008, Edgewater Foods International, Inc. maintained effective internal control over financial reporting.

Although currently we do not identify any material weaknesses in the process of self assessment, we have recognized significant weaknesses in internal controls. Currently we do not have sufficient in-house expertise in US GAAP reporting. Instead, we rely very much on the expertise and knowledge of external financial advisors in US GAAP conversion. External financial advisors have helped prepare and review the consolidated financial statements. Although we have not identified any material errors with our financial reporting or any material weaknesses with our internal controls, no assurances can be given that there are no such material errors or weaknesses existing. We are seeking to recruit experienced professionals to augment and upgrade our financial staff to address issues of timeliness and completeness in US GAAP financial reporting. In addition, we do not believe we have sufficient documentation with our existing financial processes, risk assessment and internal controls. We plan to work closely with external financial advisors to document the existing financial processes, risk assessment and internal controls systematically.

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 us to provide only management’s report in this annual report.

In June 2005, we entered into an employment agreement with Robert Saunders, our Chairman, CEO and President. Mr. Saunders will serve at the pleasure of the Board of Directors. Pursuant to his employment agreement, Mr. Saunders’ compensation will be $60,000 (USD) per annum for his services as our President. Additionally, we agreed to grant Mr. Saunders a signing bonus of US $150,000 to be paid on closing of at least US $3,500,000 in third party financing and increase his compensation to $120,000 per annum if we receive at least US $5,000,000 in outside funding. After the completion of our Series A Preferred Stock Financing, Mr. Saunders was due the signing bonus of $150,000 and a monthly salary of $10,000 per month beginning in August 2006. However, Mr. Saunders agreed to reduce his monthly salary to $5,000 per month until such time that we become significantly cash flow positive for its operations. This agreement expired in June 2008 and we are currently operating as if this employment agreement is still in effect as we discuss a new agreement with Mr. Saunders. As of August 31, 2008, we had paid Mr. Saunders $100,000 of the $150,000 bonus that was due under the terms of the agreement. Additionally, we are currently discussing possible restructuring/payment terms of the accrued salary of $190,000 as of August 31, 2008, until such time that we become significantly cash flow positive for its operations.

(2)

Mr. Boswell served as our President from March to June 2005, at which time Mr. Saunders replaced Mr. Boswell as President. Mr. Boswell has served as our Acting Chief Accounting Officer since August 2005. Mr. Boswell indirectly owns a minority interest in TriPoint Capital Advisors, LLC, a significant shareholder and party with which we maintain a consulting agreement. In August 2006, the Board approved the Compensation Committee’s recommendation to pay TriPoint $15,000 per month, which includes fees for Mr. Boswell’s services as our Acting Chief Accounting during 2005, however TriPoint agreed to reduce such fee to $7,000 per month until our cash flow position improves, at which time the Committee will reconvene and recommend a return to $15,000 per month. In addition, TriPoint has agreed not to accept any additional fees, other than expenses, until we are sufficiently funded to carry out our business and operations.

On September 8, 2008, our board of directors authorized the issuance of an aggregate of 100,000 options to purchase our common stock pursuant to our 2005 Equity Plan to Mr. Idrovo. The options vest in two equal installments over the next two years (on September 8, 2009 and 2010). Each option is exercisable for a period of five years from the issuance date and has an exercise price of $0.45. Based on the Black-Scholes option pricing model, we will incur approximately $43,000 through August 31, 2010 for these options. However, as of August 31, 2008, Mr. Idrovo had not yet been granted any options and therefore we have not yet incurred any stock option expense.

Our directors who are employees do not receive any compensation from us for services rendered as directors. The Board has created three classes of fees for outside directors: (1) outside directors who are “independent,” as defined in the Exchange Act will be paid $500 per meeting, whether telephonic or in person for director fee – there shall not be any fees for written consents in lieu of board meetings; (2) outside directors who are not “independent” will not receive any fees at this time, but once our cash flow position improves, the Compensation Committee will reconvene and make recommendations; (3) the Vice Chairman will receive $3,000 per month, which includes $1,500 per month for his role as Chairman of our Audit Committee. Additionally, although we do not currently have an arrangement or agreement to provide stock based compensation to our outside directors, we may, from time to time, grant outside directors incentive stock options pursuant to our 2005 Equity Incentive Plan.
