PART I
ITEM 1. BUSINESS GENERAL
Golden Spirit Enterprises Ltd., formerly Golden Spirit Gaming Ltd., formerly Golden Spirit Mining Ltd., formerly Golden Spirit Minerals Ltd., formerly 2UOnline.com, Inc., formerly Power Direct, Inc., was incorporated in the State of Delaware on September 13, 1993, and we maintain our principal executive offices at 1288 Alberni Street, Suite 806, Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada V6E 4N5. Our offices in the United States are located at 177 Telegraph Road, Suite 541, Bellingham, Washington 98226.
We changed our name from Power Direct, Inc., to 2UOnline.com, Inc. by filing a Certificate of Amendment to our Certificate of Incorporation on January 31, 2000. We also changed our trading symbol from "PWDR" to "TWOU" in order to reflect our decision to shift our focus from oil and gas production to Internet- related activities. Our symbol was then changed to "TWOUE". On or about April 18, 2000, we were removed from the Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board ("OTCBB") for failure to comply with NASD Rule 6530, which requires any company listed on the OTCBB to be current in its public reporting obligations pursuant to the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934. The Company was re-instated on the OTCBB on October 7, 2002 under the symbol "TWOU". The Company filed a certificate of amendment to its Articles of Incorporation with the State of Delaware on October 1, 2003 to change its name to Golden Spirit Minerals Ltd. The name change reflects management's decision to shift the Company's focus from internet-based business development to mineral exploration. On October 8, 2003, the trading symbol for the Company became "GSPM". On October 19, 2004, the Company changed its name to Golden Spirit Mining Ltd. and the trading symbol was "GSML". On July 18, 2005 the Company changed its name to Golden Spirit Gaming Ltd. and the trading symbol was GSGL. On June 30, 2006, the Company changed its name to Golden Spirit Enterprises Ltd. and the trading symbol is currently GSPT.
On August 17, 2005, the Company incorporated Golden Spirit Poker Company Limited, a British Virgin Islands Corporation. Golden Spirit Gaming Ltd. was issued 10 shares of this Company for consideration of $10.00, representing 100% of the issued capital of Golden Spirit Poker Company Limited.
We were originally incorporated to engage in any lawful act or activity for which corporations may be organized under the General Corporation Law of Delaware. We were inactive from September 13, 1993, through November 1998, when we began the process of identifying potential business interests, including, but not necessarily limited to, interests in oil and natural gas producing properties. The Company will be involved in the development, production, financing and packaging of innovative film and television programming. In addition, the Company has signed an agreement with Eneco Industries to participate in a series of Municipal Solid Waste (garbage) fueled Recycling and Resource Recovery Plants.

OUR BUSINESS
Our initial focus was on the development of oil and natural gas properties. In this regard, we purchased interests in two properties; one in the United States and one in Canada. In or around December 1999, we decided to review the focus of our business, primarily the direction we would take with our various oil and gas projects. We decided that maintaining interests in oil and gas producing properties should no longer be our focus. Due to the growth of the Internet, we decided to pursue Internet-related activities. We determined that Internet-related activities would provide a positive revenue stream sooner than oil and gas producing activities. Due to the lack of success with our internet activities we decided to abandon this business and commencing in 2003 instead pursue opportunities in mineral exploration and development
We had limited success with both our internet activities and our mineral exploration and development activities. In mid 2005, management of the Company decided to focus on online gaming and in June 2006. On June 30, 2006, the Company changed its name and focus from gaming to reflect the Companys plan to expand its operations to include the marketing of other products and venues. The Company will be involved in the development, production, financing and packaging of innovative film and television programming. On September 30, 2006, Congress passed the Unlawful Internet Gambling Enforcement Act of 2006. The new proposed legislation prohibits banks, credit card companies, money transmitting businesses, and other third-party payment providers from knowingly processing online gaming transactions. Due to this ruling and the negative impact it would have on the Golden Spirit poker website, management decided to discontinue its online gaming operations in 2006.
The Company will be involved in the development, production, financing and packaging of innovative film and television programming. In addition, the Company has signed an agreement with Eneco Industries to participate in a series of Municipal Solid Waste (garbage) fueled Recycling and Resource Recovery Plants. The Agreement calls for a joint venture utilizing EnEco's expertise and technology to develop a municipal solid waste (garbage) recycling and biomass derived renewable energy facility. Golden Spirit and EnEco will build and operate a series of solid waste recycling and biomass derived renewable energy facility with greenhouse and algae subsystems that will utilize our Thermal Oxidation Process System (TOPS) technology to generate electricity for sale to the local power grid. Further details on the new Golden Spirit - Eneco project can be viewed on our website www.goldenspirit.ws.

TALES OF RAIN AND MAGIC is currently in post-production
Synopsis:
Misty lives with her opera singer grandmother and her orphaned cousin Rain in a charming small town along the banks of a river. Sent by her parents at an early age to study Sichuanese opera with her grandmother, Misty enjoys an idyllic and carefree childhood. At the age of four, she learns that her mother died while taking photographs of a mountain known as Goddess Peak, which begins Mistys fascination with the legend of the same name. She and her cousin Rain spend many happy hours exploring a nearby cave and hoping for a glimpse of the goddess said to inhabit it. Several years later, Misty is distraught to learn of her fathers remarriage. She returns to the cave but instead of finding the goddess, she runs into her great-uncle, who happens to be in the cave taking photographs. Great-uncle begins teaching Misty the art of photography, just as he taught her mother many years before. Photography brings Misty closer to the memory of her mother, and she soon develops a passion for taking photos.
Grandmothers favorite student is a lovely young girl named Spring. Spring is an aspiring opera singer and an admirer of Mistys older cousin Rain. As Misty reaches adolescence and begins experiencing physical and emotional changes, she also becomes aware of the blossoming romance between Rain and Spring. This presents a problem, for Misty is also secretly in love with her cousin Rain. Her jealously leads her to snap a photo of Spring and Rain in a very compromising position and post it for everyone in the village to see. This act leads to a series of unforeseen consequences that will change Mistys life forever...With its stories of wind and water, rain and magic, love and loss, the film unfolds like a charming fairytale.

Film Productions in Progress
THE CABIN is currently in pre-production.
The Company will act as Distributor for this high energy horror film about five beautiful university students who decide to spend a girls only weekend at a remote picturesque rustic cabin only to learn that there is an evil entity lurking in the Cabin that wants them to stay forever and does not intend for them to leave alive.
Synopsis:
The ad simply read; The perfect place. Rustic 19th century log cabin with luxurious 21st century amenities. Historic location. Details upon request. Josie knew right away that this was, as the ad read, the perfect place for the Delta Phi Sister annual study week retreat. A bit unsettling that the ad had mysteriously popped up in the Craigs List Vacation wanted section at the very moment Josie was ready to close the already thoroughly perused daily listings.
The friends decide to make it a girls only getaway, and after some not so gentle persuading of their somewhat promiscuous friend Heather, they all agree and catch a ferry to New Haven Island off the coast of Maine. Unbeknownst to the group, Heather secretly informs her boyfriend and his Omega friends of the location of the remote cabin. On the ferry ride over, the girls meet a mysterious and slightly creepy old man who gives them a token of protection against what he eerily refers to as The Haunting. He informs the girls that nearly two hundred years ago, an evil coven of witches were burned at the stake by the priests of the Christian church. Their bones were ferried over to New Haven Island and entrusted to a Keeper who built a sanctified burial ground for the bones of the burnt witches and swore an oath of eternal secrecy and protection of the bones to the church. The cabin has, over the centuries, been believed to be the eternal battleground for a mutual and unholy vendetta between the witches and the Christian priests. Undaunted and skeptical, the girls decide to press on, determined that the old guy was more than just a little insane and that the idea of some clash of the spirits is just a little too far fetched. The girls only weekend is shortly crashed by the arrival of the Alpha Omega boys. Amidst the steam of the hot tub truth or dare sessions, strip shooter games and secret midnight girl swapping, the group discovers a Ouija board amongst the board games left in the cabin and enter themselves into a dangerous game of black magic, revenge and blood sacrifice.

Synopsis:
When Sabella Phoenix Zahra, the only daughter of infamous, international arms dealer Asim-Abdul Zahra is kidnapped by an ultra-radical terrorist group known as Black Fist, he realizes he has only two choices; give the terrorists the secret plans for a biological weapon of mass destruction that they plan to unleash on the United States and Britain or try and enlist the help of CIA agent Arlen Atkinson, the very man whos been trying to bring him to justice for a decade.
Arlen is woken in the middle of the night by a phone call from Asim, who informs him of the situation, suggesting the two work together in an effort to rescue his daughter while at the same time, eliminating a very real threat to the safety of the United States. Arlen is torn between his desire to bring down this dangerous arms dealer and his sworn duty to faithfully protect the sovereignty of his country from a potentially catastrophic biological attack. Choosing the lesser of two evils, Arlen contacts longtime friend, Captain Cole Herrick, commander of the ultra-secret anti-terrorism group known as The Nine.
Captain Herrick begins assembling his group of nine operatives from their various assignments around the world and begins the planning and training operations for a covert mission into the heavily fortified Indonesian jungle where Black Fist makes its headquarters. Having mixed feelings about his team being used to help an arms dealer whos long been supplying the very weapons responsible for killing thousands world wide, including some of his own operatives, he informs his team that after the rescue of the girl and the disposal of Black Fist, they will bring Asim to justice.
The team penetrates the heavily guarded jungle fortress with very little resistance and is able to successfully retrieve Sabella quite easily maybe a little too easily. On the way out, however, the team seems to be getting ambushed at every turn and it begins to become more and more apparent that there is a mole among The Nine working for Black Fist. While deep inside enemy territory and Black Fist aware of their every move, Captain Herrick and The Nine must use every ounce of their training and instinct to get themselves and Sabella out alive. Rick and The Nine must use every ounce of their training and instinct to get themselves and Sabella out alive.

The Companys initial response to the staff was that it may rely on the exemption from the definition of investment company provided in Section 3(b)(1) of the Act because the current operations of the Company are in the film production and distribution industry, as well as the municipal solid waste (garbage) recycling industry. The staff is citing that we have not provided sufficient information or analysis for a proper evaluation whether we can rely on Section 3(b)(1) of the Act.
The Company has forwarded the staff comment letter to its legal counsel, who are currently researching the Investment Act of 1940 to provide a sufficient analysis for the Divcision of Investment Management. This response is expected to be filed in April, 2009.

ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
On May 2, 2003, the Company issued 25,000 post reverse-split common shares valued at $9,000 to a consultant pursuant to a stock option incentive plan. The consultant failed to meet the terms of the stock option agreement by not paying the exercise price and as a result, the Company requested the return of the 25,000 post reverse-split shares. The consultant refused to return the shares; therefore, the Company issued a stop transfer and commenced legal proceedings to recover the shares. The consultant subsequently filed a Statement of Claim against the Company for damages of $53,000 Cdn. On April 29, 2005, the Supreme Court of British Columbia issued a judgment awarding the plaintiff $15,000 Cdn in damages and $7,180 Cdn in costs; however, the 25,000 post reverse-split shares were to be returned to the Company (not yet received). In September 2005, the Company and the plaintiff agreed to payment terms to settle this damage award by a payment of $6,080 Cdn (paid) and a payment schedule of $1,000 Cdn per month for the remaining balance of the judgment commencing December 1, 2005. The $6,080 Cdn payment was made as the result of a bailiffs executed court order on September 28, 2005, which seized the Companys bank account. No further payments have been made towards the settlement agreement due to the Plaintiffs refusal to sign the order.
On September 28, 2005, the Company received notice of a lawsuit from Thomas L. Franklin, a professional poker player formerly under contract with 4KE, for an alleged breach of contract for services rendered based on the original contract between the Company and 4KE dated July 18, 2005. The Company, 4KE, and certain individuals, are being sued for $967,500, plus interest at the rate of 8% per annum from August 22, 2005, and all costs pertaining to this legal matter. An attorney in Mississippi has been retained to defend this action and to apply for a dismissal of the case, based on Mississippi being the wrong jurisdiction for this suit and to defend the Company from the claims made by the plaintiff. The court case was dismissed in favour of the Company in the second quarter of 2008.

Liquidity and Capital Resources.
For the year ended December 31, 2008, we had total assets of $1,015,455, compared to total assets in 2007 of $740,556. This includes a cash balance of $1,655, compared to $6,282 in 2007. We have available for sale securities with a fair value of $982,468 as at December 31, 2008, Film production & Development Costs of $1 and Furniture and Equipment of $Nil.
At December 31, 2008, we had current liabilities of $324,635, which was represented by accounts payable and accrued liabilities of $43,155, due to Organa Gardens International Inc. of 32,747, and $248,733 due to related parties. At December 31, 2007 we had current liabilities of $349,054. The decrease in liabilities was essentially due to an decrease in amounts payable to Organa Gardens Internationanl Inc.. At December 31, 2008, we had a working capital deficiency of $(322,980) (2007 - $(342,772)).
Results of Operations
We realized revenue in 2008 of $Nil (2007- $ 43) and other income ot $28,645 (2007 - $34,424) as the result of a gain on the sale of securities of a related party. In prior years, our revenues from prior businesses totaled $167,406. During the year ended December 31, 2008 our loss was $245,550 (2006 - $422,958). This decrease in loss was due to a decrease in consulting fees, and stock based compensation expenses.
From inception to December 31, 2008, we have incurred cumulative net losses of $16,752,561 resulting primarily from a write-down and equity loss in Organa Gardens International Inc. (a related party) of $1,707,581, a $600,000 property option loss as a recorded value of certain restricted shares issued to Legacy Wine & Spirits International Ltd. (a related party see our Investment in Available for sale securities (b) Legacy Wine & Spirits International Ltd. above) and general and administrative expenses of $15,392,784, the majority of which is made up of consulting fees and stock based compensation expense totaling $7,385,085.
The cash and equivalents constitute our present internal sources of liquidity. Because we are not generating any significant revenues, our only external source of liquidity is the sale of our capital stock and any advances from officers, directors or shareholders.
To address the going concern problem discussed in our financial statements, we will require additional working capital. We will also require additional funds to implement our business strategies, including funds for:
-payment of increased operating expenses, and further implementation of film industry business strategies.
-payment of undetermined expenses relating to the Eneco venture
No assurance can be given, however, that we will have access to the capital markets in the future, or that financing will be available on acceptable terms to satisfy our cash requirements needed to implement our business strategies. Our inability to access the capital markets or obtain acceptable financing could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition and could severely threaten our ability to operate as a going concern. Our forecast of the period of time through which our financial resources will be adequate to support our operations is a forward-looking statement that involves risks and uncertainties, and actual results could vary as a result of a number of factors.
Our Plan of Operation for the Next 12 Months. We anticipate that we will need to raise additional capital within the next 12 months in order to continue as a going concern. Anticipated revenues for the first quarter of 2008 are not expected to be significant. Therefore, additional capital may be raised through additional public or private financings, as well as borrowings and other resources. To the extent that additional capital is raised through the sale of equity or equity-related securities, the issuance of such securities could result in dilution of our stockholders. There can be no assurance that additional funding will be available on favorable terms, if at all. If adequate funds are not available within the next 12 months, we may be required to curtail our operations significantly or to obtain funds through entering into arrangements with collaborative partners or others that may require us to relinquish rights to certain of our assets that we would not otherwise relinquish.
We do anticipate certain expenditures within the next 12 months for our film production and distribution. We do not anticipate any significant research and development within the next 12 months, nor do we anticipate that we will lease or purchase any significant equipment within the next 12 months. We do not anticipate a significant change in the number of our employees within the next 12 months. We are not aware of any material commitment or condition that may affect our liquidity within the next 12 months.

ITEM 8. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTARY DATA
REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders
Golden Spirit Enterprises Ltd.
Quebec, Canada
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Golden Spirit Enterprises Ltd. (a development stage company) as of December 31, 2008 and 2007, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders equity (deficit), and cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2008 and 2007 and for the cumulative period from September 13, 1998 (inception) to December 31, 2008. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Companys management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. 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 Companys internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Golden Spirit Enterprises Ltd. as of December 31, 2008 and 2007, and the results of its activities and cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2008 and 2007and for the cumulative period from September 13, 1993 (inception) to December 31, 2008 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, the Companys current liabilities exceed current assets, has incurred significant losses since inception, all of which raise substantial doubt about the Companys ability to continue as a going concern. Managements plans in regards to these matters are also described in Note 1. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

GOLDEN SPIRIT ENTERPRISES LTD.
(A development stage company)
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 2008 AND 2007 |
NOTE 1 NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The Company was incorporated on September 13, 1993 in the State of Delaware as Power Direct, Inc. On January 31, 2000 the Company changed its name to 2U Online.com Inc. to reflect managements decision to shift the Companys focus from oil and gas exploration and development to internet-based business development. On October 8, 2003, the Company changed its name to Golden Spirit Minerals Ltd. to reflect managements decision to shift the Companys focus from internet-based business development to mineral exploration. On October 19, 2004, the Company changed its name to Golden Spirit Mining Ltd. On July 18, 2005, the Company changed its name to Golden Spirit Gaming Ltd. to reflect managements decision to develop an online gaming business. The launch of the updated goldenspiritpoker.com website featuring real cash games, in addition to play money games, occurred in January 2006. By agreement dated July 18, 2005 as amended September 20, 2005 (the Amended Agreement), the Company agreed to acquire 100% of the issued and outstanding common shares of 4 Of A Kind Enterprises (4KE) doing business as EverythingAboutPoker.com for consideration of 1,388,889 post-reverse split restricted shares of the Companys common stock which were placed in trust pending finalization of the agreement. The parties have agreed to complete this acquisition, subject to satisfactory completion of due diligence (See Note 5), effective March 31, 2006. Effective June 30, 2006, the Company completed a 1 for 18 reverse stock split (refer Note 7) and changed its name to Golden Spirit Enterprises Ltd. to reflect the Companys plan to expand its operations to include the marketing of other products and venues not related to gaming. The Company will be involved in the development, production, financing and packaging of innovative film and television programming. In addition, the Company has signed an agreement with Eneco Industries to participate in a series of Municipal Solid Waste (garbage) fueled Recycling and Resource Recovery Plants.
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the basis of a going concern which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has incurred losses since inception of $17,574,507 and at December 31, 2008 had a working capital deficiency of $322,980. The Company and its subsidiaries are in the development stage and further significant losses are expected to be incurred in developing its business. The recoverability of the carrying value of assets and the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on raising additional capital and ultimately on generating future profitable operations. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to raise the necessary funds when needed to finance its ongoing costs. Given the Companys limited operating history, lack of sales, and its operating losses, there can be no assurance that it will be able to achieve or maintain profitability. The Company intends to fund the marketing of its business with both equity financing and joint venture opportunities, although there are no assurances these opportunities will be successful. Accordingly, these factors raise substantial doubt regarding the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern.
NOTE 2 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Principles of Consolidation
The financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries, a 100% interest in PD Oil & Gas, Inc. (inactive), and a 100% interest in Cardstakes.com Enterprises Ltd. (inactive).
Furniture and Equipment
Furniture and equipment is carried at acquisition cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is provided over the estimated useful lives of the assets on a 30% declining balance basis per annum.
Use of Estimates and Assumptions
Preparation of the Companys financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United Stares requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts and disclosures. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates. The significant areas requiring managements estimates and assumptions relate to determining the fair value of stock-based compensation, fair value of shares issued for services and the acquisitions and useful lives of long-lived assets.
.

NOTE 2 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The Companys financial instruments include cash, receivables, available-for-sale securities, amounts due from Legacy Wine & Spirits International Ltd., accounts payable and accrued liabilities, amounts due to Organa Gardens International Inc., and due to related parties. Management believes the fair values of these financial instruments approximate their carrying values due to their short-term nature.
The Company adopted SFAS No. 157 for all financial assets and liabilities and nonfinancial assets and liabilities that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a recurring basis (at least annually). SFAS No. 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements.SFAS No. 157 defines fair value as the price that would be received upon sale of an asset or paid upon transfer of a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date and in the principal or most advantageous market for that asset or liability. The fair value should be calculated based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, not on assumptions specific to the entity. In addition, the fair value of liabilities should include consideration of non-performance risk including our own credit risk.
In addition to defining fair value, SFAS No. 157 expands the disclosure requirements around fair value and establishes a fair value hierarchy for valuation inputs. The hierarchy prioritizes the inputs into three levels based on the extent to which inputs used in measuring fair value are observable in the market. Each fair value measurement is reported in one of the three levels which is determined by the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. These levels are:
- Level 1 – inputs are based upon unadjusted quoted prices for identical instruments traded in active markets.
- Level 2 – inputs are based upon quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active, and model-based valuation techniques for which all significant assumptions are observable in the market or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.
- Level 3 – inputs are generally unobservable and typically reflect management’s estimates of assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. The fair values are therefore determined using model-based techniques that include option pricing models, discounted cash flow models, and similar techniques
In general, and where applicable, we use quoted prices in an active market for identical derivative assets and liabilities that are traded on exchanges. These derivative assets and liabilities are included in Level 1.
Foreign Currency Translation
The financial statements are presented in United States dollars. In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 52, Foreign Currency Translation, foreign denominated monetary assets and liabilities are translated to their United States dollar equivalents using foreign exchange rates that prevailed at the balance sheet date. Non-monetary assets and liabilities are translated at exchange rates prevailing at the transaction date. Revenue and expenses are translated at average rates of exchange during the year. Related translation adjustments are reported as a separate component of stockholders equity, whereas gains or losses resulting from foreign currency transactions are included in results of operations.
Available For Sale Securities Related Party
The Company holds marketable equity securities which are available-for-sale and as such, their carrying value is adjusted to market at the end of each reporting period. As required by SFAS 130, unrealized gains and losses on these investments are recorded as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) and are recorded as a component of net income (loss) when realized. However, if there is a permanent decline in the market value of available-for-sale securities, this permanent market value adjustment is taken into income in the period.
NOTE 2 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue from its online gaming business in accordance with Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) Staff Accounting Bulletin (SAB) No. 104, Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements. Revenue will be recognized only when the price is fixed or determinable, persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, the product is delivered or service is made, and collectibility is reasonably assured. Revenues are earned based on rake splits established in contracts and can vary depending on the agreement with the licensor. When a player joins a game, they are immediately charged a non-refundable rake fee. Accordingly, the Company recognizes rake revenue at the time a player joins a game. In addition, the Company recognizes revenues and costs from its Online Casino once a player loses or gains the wager. Allowances for non-collection of revenues will be made when collectibility becomes uncertain.
Income Taxes
The Company follows the liability method of accounting for income taxes as set forth in SFAS No. 109 Accounting for Income Taxes. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax balances. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted or substantially enacted tax rates expected to apply to the taxable income in the years in which those differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the date of enactment or substantive enactment. A valuation allowance is provided for deferred tax assets if it is more likely than not that the Company will not realize the future benefit, or if the future deductibility is uncertain.On January 1, 2007, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued FASB Interpretation No. 48 (FIN No. 48), Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxesan interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109 (SFAS No. 109). This interpretation introduces a new approach that changes how enterprises recognize and measure tax benefits associated with tax positions and how enterprises disclose uncertainties related to income tax positions in their financial statements. The company does not currently expect that adoption of FIN 48 will not have a material impact on the companys consolidated results of operations and financial position.
Loss per Common Share
The Company computes loss per share in accordance with SFAS No. 128, Earnings per Share which requires presentation of both basic and diluted earnings per share on the face of the statement of operations. Basic loss per share is computed by dividing net loss available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of outstanding common shares during the period. Diluted loss per share gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period including stock options, using the treasury method. Dilutive loss per share excludes all potential common shares if their effect is anti-dilutive.
Stock-Based Compensation
On January 1, 2006, the Company adopted the fair value recognition provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Statement No. 123(R), Share-Based Payment, (SFAS 123R). Prior to January 1, 2006, the Company accounted for share-based payments under the recognition and measurement provisions of APB Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees (APB 25), and related Interpretations, as permitted by FASB Statement No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation (SFAS 123). In accordance with APB 25, no compensation cost was required to be recognized for options granted to employees that had an exercise price equal to the market value of the underlying common stock on the date of grant.
The Company adopted SFAS 123R using the modified-prospective-transition method. Under this method, compensation cost recognized for the year ended December 31, 2007 includes: a) compensation cost for all share-based payments granted prior to, but not yet vested as of December 31, 2006, based on the grant-date fair value estimated in accordance with the original provisions of SFAS 123, and b) compensation cost for all share-based payments granted subsequent to December 31, 2005, based on the grant-date fair value estimated in accordance with the provisions of SFAS 123R. In addition, deferred stock compensation related to non-vested options is required to be eliminated against additional paid-in capital upon adoption of SFAS 123R. The results for the prior periods have not been restated.
23
NOTE 2 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
The Companys results of operations for the year ended December 31, 2007 were no different than if the Company had not adopted SFAS 123R because (i) all previously granted stock options had fully vested as at December 31, 2005, (ii) all stock options granted during the year ended December 31, 2007 were granted to consultants with the related fair value accounting consistent under SFAS 123 and SFAS 123R, and (iii) the Company did not modify any previously existing stock options. As a result, no pro forma disclosure of the impact of adopting SFAS 123R has been provided for the year ended December 31, 2007.
The Company accounts for equity instruments issued in exchange for the receipt of goods or services from other than employees in accordance with SFAS No. 123 and the conclusions reached by the Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) in Issue No. 96-18. Costs are measured at the estimated fair market value of the consideration received or the estimated fair value of the equity instruments issued, whichever is more reliably measurable. The value of equity instruments issued for consideration other than employee services is determined on the earliest of a performance commitment or completion of performance by the provider of goods or services as defined by EITF 96-18.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In February 2007, FASB issued SFAS No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities Including an Amendment of FASB Statement No. 115. The fair value option permits entities to choose to measure eligible financial instruments at fair value at specified election dates. The entity will report unrealized gains and losses on the items on which it has elected the fair value option in earnings. SFAS 159 is effective beginning in fiscal year 2008. The Company is currently evaluating the effect of adopting SFAS 159, but does not expect it to have a material impact on its results of operations or financial condition.
In December 2007, the SEC issued Staff Accounting Bulletin (SAB) 110 Share-Based Payment. SAB 110 amends and replaces Question 6 of Section D.2 of Topic 14, Share-Based Payment, of the Staff Accounting Bulletin series. Question 6 of Section D.2 of Topic 14 expresses the views of the staff regarding the use of the simplified method in developing an estimate of the expected term of plain vanilla share options and allows usage of the simplified method for share option grants prior to December 31, 2007. SAB 110 allows public companies which do not have historically sufficient experience to provide a reasonable estimate to continue use of the simplified method for estimating the expected term of plain vanilla share option grants after December 31, 2007. SAB 110 is effective January 1, 2008. The Company currently uses the simplified method to estimate the expected term for share option grants as it does not have enough historical experience to provide a reasonable estimate. The Company will continue to use the simplified method until it has enough historical experience to provide a reasonable estimate of expected term in accordance with SAB 110. The Company does not expect SAB 110 will have a material impact on its balance sheets, statements of operations and cash flows.
In December 2007, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement No. 141R, Business Combinations, and Statement No. 160, Non-controlling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements, an amendment of ARB No. 51. Statement No. 141R modifies the accounting and disclosure requirements for business combinations and broadens the scope of the previous standard to apply to all transactions in which one entity obtains control over another business. Statement No. 160 establishes new accounting and reporting standards for non-controlling interests in subsidiaries. The Company will be required, if applicable, to apply the provisions of the new standards in the first quarter of 2009. Early adoption is not permitted for these new standards.
In March 2008, the Financial Accounting Standards Board, or FASB, issued SFAS No. 161, Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activitiesan amendment of FASB Statement No. 133. This standard requires companies to provide enhanced disclosures about (a) how and why an entity uses derivative instruments, (b) how derivative instruments and related hedged items are accounted for under Statement 133 and its related interpretations, and (c) how derivative instruments and related hedged items affect an entitys financial position, financial performance, and cash flows. This Statement is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after November 15, 2008, with early application encouraged.

NOTE 9 COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
On May 2, 2003, the Company issued 25,000 post reverse-split common shares valued at $9,000 to a consultant pursuant to a stock option incentive plan. The consultant failed to meet the terms of the stock option agreement by not paying the exercise price and as a result, the Company requested the return of the 25,000 post reverse-split shares. The consultant refused to return the shares; therefore, the Company issued a stop transfer and commenced legal proceedings to recover the shares. The consultant subsequently filed a Statement of Claim against the Company for damages of $53,000 Cdn. On April 29, 2005, the Supreme Court of British Columbia issued a judgment awarding the plaintiff $15,000 Cdn in damages and $7,180 Cdn in costs; however, the 25,000 post reverse-split shares were to be returned to the Company (not yet received). In September 2005, the Company and the plaintiff agreed to payment terms to settle this damage award by a payment of $6,080 Cdn (paid) and a payment schedule of $1,000 Cdn per month for the remaining balance of the judgment commencing December 1, 2005. The $6,080 Cdn payment was made as the result of a bailiffs executed court order on September 28, 2005, which seized the Companys bank account. No further payments have been made towards the settlement agreement due to the Plaintiffs refusal to sign the order.
On September 28, 2005, the Company received notice of a lawsuit from Thomas L. Franklin, a professional poker player formerly under contract with 4KE, for an alleged breach of contract for services rendered based on the original contract between the Company and 4KE dated July 18, 2005. The Company, 4KE, and certain individuals, are being sued for $967,500, plus interest at the rate of 8% per annum from August 22, 2005, and all costs pertaining to this legal matter. An attorney in Mississippi has been retained to defend this action and to apply for a dismissal of the case, based on Mississippi being the wrong jurisdiction for this suit and to defend the Company from the claims made by the plaintiff. The court case was dismissed in favour of the Company in the second quarter of 2008.
As of August 1, 2002, Golden Spirit Enterprises Ltd. has leased 1250 sq. ft of office space from Holm Investments Ltd. at $1,000 per month for a period of 3 years and has been renewed for an additional 3 years at $2,050 per month.
