FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS

Statements made in this Form 10-K that are not historical or current facts are "forward-looking statements" made pursuant to the safe harbor provisions of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"). These statements often can be identified by the use of terms such as "may", "will", "expect", "believe", "anticipate", "estimate", "approximate", or "continue", or the negative thereof. Catalyst Lighting Group, Inc. (“we”, “us”, “our” or the "Company") intends that such forward-looking statements be subject to the safe harbors for such statements. The Company wishes to caution readers not to place undue reliance on any such forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date made. Any forward-looking statements represent management's best judgment as to what may occur in the future. However, forward-looking statements are subject to risks, uncertainties and important factors beyond the control of the Company that could cause actual results and events to differ materially from historical results of operations and events and those presently anticipated or projected. These factors include adverse economic conditions, entry of new and stronger competitors, inadequate capital and unexpected costs. The Company disclaims any obligation subsequently to revise any forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of such statement or to reflect the occurrence of anticipated or unanticipated events.
 
 
 

 

PART I

Item 1. Description of Business

(a) Business History and Background

We were formed as a “blank check” Delaware corporation under the name Wentworth III, Inc. on March 7, 2001 to effect a merger, exchange of capital stock, asset acquisition or other similar business combination with an operating business which we believe had significant growth potential. As of February 12, 2003, we entered into a Securities Exchange Agreement with Whitco Company, L.L.P., a Texas limited liability partnership which manufactured, marketed and distributed outdoor lighting poles. On August 27, 2003, we acquired Whitco Company, LP (successor in interest as a result of the conversion of Whitco Company, L.L.P. to a limited partnership) through an exchange of all of Whitco's partnership units, and options to purchase partnership units, for 2,991,368 shares of Catalyst common stock, and options to purchase 808,632 shares of Catalyst common stock. Following our acquisition of Whitco, we changed our name to Catalyst Lighting Group, Inc., and Whitco became our wholly-owned subsidiary.

Whitco was a nationwide manufacturer, marketer and distributor of steel and aluminum outdoor lighting poles. Founded in 1969, Whitco sold poles directly to original equipment manufacturers (OEM's) and indirectly to other third parties through its own contracted sales representatives. We sought to have Whitco become the preferred manufacturer, marketer and distributor of steel and aluminum lighting pole structures and accessories.

We operated our Whitco business solely through our wholly-owned Whitco subsidiary. As such, substantially all of our assets and liabilities resided in our Whitco subsidiary. We continued to incur operating losses from our Whitco business and had insufficient working capital to fund our Whitco business operations. During late 2005, we pursued the alternative of selling or merging with another company to provide manufacturing economies of scale and the potential of additional liquidity to fund operations.
 
However, due to continuing operating losses, on March 15, 2006, Whitco voluntarily filed for protection under Chapter 11 of the U.S. bankruptcy laws. On April 25, 2006, the bankruptcy court approved a sale of Whitco’s assets (other than cash and accounts receivable) used in its area lighting pole business. The assets were sold free and clear of any liens and encumbrances to a third party purchaser pursuant to Section 363 of the U.S Bankruptcy Code. The purchaser issued a common stock purchase warrant (“Purchase Warrant”) to acquire shares of the purchaser’s common stock as consideration for the assets purchased.
 
On May 16, 2006, Whitco filed a motion to convert its bankruptcy case to a Chapter 7 liquidation proceeding. This motion was granted by the bankruptcy court on July 13, 2006. In connection with the liquidation, the Purchase Warrant and Whitco’s cash and accounts receivable were assigned and distributed to Whitco’s secured creditor, Laurus Master Fund, Ltd. (“Laurus”). As part of the Chapter 7 bankruptcy proceedings, no assets were available for distribution to unsecured creditors and, accordingly, these unsatisfied obligations were relieved as part of the liquidation of Whitco in accordance with the provisions of Chapter 7 of U.S. bankruptcy laws.
 
Since Whitco’s liquidation in bankruptcy, the Company has had nominal assets, nominal business operations and its business strategy has been to investigate and, if such investigation warrants, acquire a target company or business seeking the perceived advantages of being a publicly held corporation. In furtherance of this business strategy, on July 25, 2006, Catalyst voluntarily filed for protection under Chapter 11 of the U.S. bankruptcy laws. Catalyst subsequently determined to withdraw from bankruptcy court protection and, on motion made by the U.S. trustee, the bankruptcy court ordered the case dismissed on January 9, 2007.
 
(b) Reorganization
 
Since the dismissal of Catalyst’s bankruptcy case, the Company completed a reorganization in September 2007 and settled all of its outstanding liabilities with creditors outside the jurisdiction of the bankruptcy courts (the “Reorganization”). As part of this Reorganization, on August 22, 2007, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement (“Securities Purchase Agreement”) with KIG Investors I, LLC (“KIG Investors”), a Delaware limited liability company, pursuant to which KIG Investors purchased 1,572,770 shares of convertible preferred stock for a purchase price of $157,277, or $0.10 per share (“Preferred Stock Purchase”). A copy of the Securities Purchase Agreement is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.3.
 
1

 
On August 23, 2007, in accordance with the terms of the Securities Purchase Agreement, the existing officers and two of the Company’s directors resigned, and Kevin R. Keating, the sole remaining director, was appointed Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, President, Secretary and Treasurer of the Company.
 
Kevin R. Keating is the father of Timothy J. Keating, the principal member of Keating Investments, LLC. Keating Investments, LLC is the managing member of KIG Investors. Timothy J. Keating is the manager of KIG Investors.
 
The Preferred Stock Purchase was completed on September 12, 2007. The preferred shares were automatically convertible into the Company’s common stock at such time as the Company completed a 1-for-10 reverse stock split (“Reverse Split”). The Reverse Split was completed on September 25, 2007, and KIG Investors was issued 2,562,015 shares of common stock, on a post-reverse split basis, upon cancellation of the preferred stock. The proceeds of the Preferred Stock Purchase were used to pay outstanding liabilities of the Company.
 
KIG Investors was granted certain demand and piggyback registration rights for the shares of common stock issued to them upon conversion, pursuant to the terms and condition of a certain registration rights agreement (“KIG Registration Rights Agreement”). A copy of the KIG Registration Rights Agreement is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.4.
 
In connection with the closing of the Preferred Stock Purchase, the Company entered into agreements with a number of creditors for a cash settlement of amounts owed to them by the Company. Pursuant to these cash settlements, the Company paid an aggregate of $30,277 in complete satisfaction of $191,092 in accrued liabilities, resulting in income from the discharge of indebtedness of $160,815.
 
In connection with the closing of the Preferred Stock Purchase, the Company also entered into settlement and release agreements (collectively, the “Settlement Agreements”) with Feldman Weinstein & Smith, LLP (“FWS”), former legal counsel to the Company, and with Halliburton Investor Relations (“HIR”), the Company’s former investor relations firm, for the issuance of common stock in complete settlement of amounts owed to them for services rendered. Pursuant to these Settlement Agreements, the Company issued an aggregate of 71,086 shares of common stock, on a post-split basis, valued at $7,109 or approximately $0.10 per share, in satisfaction of accrued liabilities totaling $73,260, resulting in income from discharge of indebtedness of $66,151 being recorded. A copy of the Settlement Agreements with FWS and HIR are attached hereto as Exhibits 10.5 and 10.6, respectively. FWS and HIR were granted certain piggyback registration rights for the shares of common stock received by them in the settlement.
 
In connection with the closing of the Preferred Stock Purchase, the Company also entered into settlement and release agreement with Laurus (“Laurus Settlement Agreement”) for the issuance of common stock in complete settlement of amounts owed to it for certain loans and accrued interest. Pursuant to the Laurus Settlement Agreement, the Company issued 1,083,172 shares of common stock, on a post-split basis, valued at $108,317 or approximately $0.10 per share, in satisfaction of principal under notes of $820,024 and accrued interest of $121,095, resulting in income from discharge of indebtedness of $832,802 being recorded. A copy of the Laurus Settlement Agreement is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.8.
 
Laurus was granted certain demand and piggyback registration rights for the shares of common stock issued to them under the settlement, pursuant to the terms and condition of a certain registration rights agreement (“Laurus Registration Rights Agreement”). A copy of the Laurus Registration Rights Agreement is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.9.
 
Further, as part of the foregoing cash and equity settlements, any creditor holding warrants to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock agreed to the cancellation of such warrants. Accordingly, warrants to purchase 82,367 shares of common stock, on a post-reverse split basis, were cancelled.

 (c) Current Business of Issuer

Since completion of its Reorganization, the Company’s business strategy has been to investigate and, if such investigation warrants, acquire a target operating company or business seeking the perceived advantages of being a publicly held corporation. The Company’s principal business objective for the next 12 months and beyond such time will be to achieve long-term growth potential through a combination with an operating business rather than immediate, short-term earnings. The Company will not restrict its potential candidate target companies to any specific business, industry or geographical location and, thus, may acquire any type of business.

Under SEC Rule 12b-2 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), the Company qualifies as a “shell company,” because it has no or nominal assets (other than cash) and no or nominal operations. Management does not intend to undertake any efforts to cause a market to develop in our securities, either debt or equity, until we have successfully concluded a business combination. The Company intends to comply with the periodic reporting requirements of the Exchange Act for so long as it is subject to those requirements.

The analysis of new business opportunities will be undertaken by or under the supervision of Kevin R. Keating, the sole officer and director of the Company. As of this date, the Company has not entered into any definitive agreement with any party, nor have there been any specific discussions with any potential business combination candidate regarding business opportunities for the Company. The Company has unrestricted flexibility in seeking, analyzing and participating in potential business opportunities. In its efforts to analyze potential acquisition targets, the Company will consider the following kinds of factors:

 
(i)
Potential for growth, indicated by new technology, anticipated market expansion or new products;

 
(ii)
Competitive position as compared to other firms of similar size and experience within the industry segment as well as within the industry as a whole;

 
(iii)
Strength and diversity of management, either in place or scheduled for recruitment;

 
(iv)
Capital requirements and anticipated availability of required funds, to be provided by the Company or from operations, through the sale of additional securities, through joint ventures or similar arrangements or from other sources;

 
(v)
The cost of participation by the Company as compared to the perceived tangible and intangible values and potentials;
 
 
 
(vi)
The extent to which the business opportunity can be advanced;

 
(vii)
The accessibility of required management expertise, personnel, raw materials, services, professional assistance and other required items; and

 
(viii)
Other relevant factors.

In applying the foregoing criteria, no one of which will be controlling, management will attempt to analyze all factors and circumstances and make a determination based upon reasonable investigative measures and available data. Potentially available business opportunities may occur in many different industries, and at various stages of development, all of which will make the task of comparative investigation and analysis of such business opportunities extremely difficult and complex. Due to the Company's limited capital available for investigation, the Company may not discover or adequately evaluate adverse facts about the opportunity to be acquired.

(d) Proposed Merger
 
On June 23, 2008, the Company, a Delaware corporation, entered into a letter of intent (the “Letter of Intent”) to acquire Organic Bouquet, Inc. (“Organic Bouquet”), a California corporation, and Organic Style Limited (“Organic Style”), a private limited company organized under the laws of England and Wales (collectively, Organic Bouquet and Organic Style are referred to as “Organic”). A detailed description of the Letter of Intent and the Merger is contained in our Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on June 27, 2008. On August 18, 2008, the Company terminated the LOI since the parties had not executed definitive and final agreements by July 31, 2008.

(e) Form of Potential Business Combination

The manner in which the Company participates in an opportunity will depend upon the nature of the opportunity, the respective needs and desires of the Company and the promoters of the opportunity, and the relative negotiating strength of the Company and such promoters.

It is likely that the Company will acquire its participation in a business opportunity through the issuance of common stock or other securities of the Company. Although the terms of any such transaction cannot be predicted, it should be noted that in certain circumstances the criteria for determining whether or not an acquisition is a so-called "tax free" reorganization under Section 368(a)(1) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code") depends upon whether the owners of the acquired business own 80% or more of the voting stock of the surviving entity. If a transaction were structured to take advantage of these provisions rather than other "tax free" provisions provided under the Code, all prior stockholders of the Company would in such circumstances retain 20% or less of the total issued and outstanding shares of the surviving entity. Under other circumstances, depending upon the relative negotiating strength of the parties, prior stockholders of the Company may retain substantially less than 20% of the total issued and outstanding shares of the surviving entity. This could result in substantial additional dilution to the equity of those who were stockholders of the Company prior to a business combination with an operating entity.

The present stockholders of the Company will likely not have control of a majority of the voting securities of the Company following a reorganization transaction. As part of such a transaction, the Company's sole director may resign and one or more new directors may be appointed without any vote by stockholders.

In the case of a business combination, the transaction may be accomplished upon the sole determination of management without any vote or approval by stockholders. In the case of a statutory merger or consolidation directly involving the Company, it will likely be necessary to call a stockholders' meeting and obtain the approval of the holders of a majority of the outstanding securities. The necessity to obtain such stockholder approval may result in delay and additional expense in the consummation of any proposed transaction and will also give rise to certain appraisal rights to dissenting stockholders. Most likely, management will seek to structure any such transaction so as not to require stockholder approval.

It is anticipated that the investigation of specific business opportunities and the negotiation, drafting and execution of relevant agreements, disclosure documents and other instruments will require substantial management time and attention and substantial cost for accountants, attorneys and others. If a decision is made not to participate in a specific business opportunity, the costs theretofore incurred in the related investigation might not be recoverable. Furthermore, even if an agreement is reached for the participation in a specific business opportunity, the failure to consummate that transaction may result in the loss to the Company of the related costs incurred.
 
We presently have no employees. Our sole officer and director is engaged in outside business activities and anticipates that he will devote to our business very limited time until the acquisition of a successful business opportunity has been identified. We expect no significant changes in the number of our employees other than such changes, if any, incident to a business combination.
 
(f) Reports to Security Holders

 
(i)
The Company is not required to deliver an annual report to security holders and at this time does not anticipate the distribution of such a report.

 
(ii)
The Company will file reports with the SEC. The Company will be a reporting company and will comply with the requirements of the Exchange Act.

 
(iii)
The public may read and copy any materials the Company files with the SEC in the SEC's Public Reference Section, Room 1580, 100 F Street N.E., Washington, D.C. 20549. The public may obtain information on the operation of the Public Reference Section by calling the SEC at 1-800-SEC-0330. Additionally, the SEC maintains an Internet site that contains reports, proxy and information statements, and other information regarding issuers that file electronically with the SEC, which can be found at http://www.sec.gov.

Item 1a. Risk Factors

An investment in the Company is highly speculative in nature and involves an extremely high degree of risk. A prospective investor should consider the possibility of the loss of an investor’s entire investment and evaluate all information about us and the risk factors discussed below in relation to his financial circumstances before investing in us

There may be conflicts of interest between our management and the stockholders of the Company.

Conflicts of interest create the risk that management may have an incentive to act adversely to the interests of the stockholders of the Company.  A conflict of interest may arise between our management's personal pecuniary interest and its fiduciary duty to our stockholders. In addition, Kevin R. Keating, our sole officer and director, is currently involved with other public shell companies and conflicts in the pursuit of business combinations with such other public shell companies with which he is, and may in the future be, affiliated with may arise. If we and the other public shell companies that management is affiliated with desire to take advantage of the same opportunity, then members of management that are affiliated with both companies would abstain from voting upon the opportunity. In the event of identical officers and directors, members of management, such individuals will arbitrarily determine the company that will be entitled to proceed with the proposed transaction.

Additionally, we contemplate that at least one of the finders of business combinations for the Company will be Keating Securities. Timothy J. Keating, the manager of KIG Investors, our principal stockholder, and the son of Kevin R. Keating, our sole officer and director, is the Managing Member of, and holds approximately a 54% interest in, Keating Securities. We cannot assure you that conflicts of interest among us, Keating Securities and our stockholders will not develop.

We have no current operating business.

We currently have no relevant operating business, revenues from operations or assets. Our business plan is to seek a merger or business combination with an operating business. We may not realize any revenue unless and until we successfully combine with an operating business. We face all of the risks inherent in the investigation, acquisition, or involvement in a new business opportunity. An investor’s purchase of any of our securities must be regarded as placing funds at a high risk in a new or "start-up" venture with all of the unforeseen costs, expenses, problems, and difficulties to which such ventures are subject. We will, in all likelihood, sustain operating expenses without corresponding revenues, at least until the consummation of a business combination. This may result in our incurring a net operating loss that will increase continuously until we can consummate a business combination with a profitable business opportunity. We cannot assure you that we can identify a suitable business opportunity and consummate a business combination.

There is competition for those private companies suitable for a business combination of the type contemplated by management.

We are in a highly competitive market for a small number of business opportunities which could reduce the likelihood of consummating a successful business combination. We are and will continue to be an insignificant participant in the business of seeking business combinations with operating entities that desire to become public companies. A large number of established and well-financed entities, including small public companies and venture capital firms, are active in mergers and acquisitions of companies that may be desirable target candidates for us. Nearly all these entities have significantly greater financial resources, technical expertise and managerial capabilities than we do; consequently, we will be at a competitive disadvantage in identifying possible business opportunities and successfully completing a business combination. These competitive factors may reduce the likelihood of our identifying and consummating a successful business combination.
 
5


Our future success is highly dependent on the ability of management to locate and attract a suitable acquisition.

The nature of our operations is highly speculative, and there is a consequent risk of loss of your investment. The success of our plan of operations will depend to a great extent on the operations, financial condition and management of the identified business opportunity. While management intends to seek business combination(s) with entities having established operating histories, we cannot assure you that we will be successful in locating candidates meeting that criterion. In the event we complete a business combination, the success of our operations may be dependent upon management of the successor firm or venture partner firm and numerous other factors beyond our control. In addition, even if we complete a business combination, there is no assurance that the business we acquire will generate revenues or profits, or that the value of our common stock will increase as a result of the acquired business opportunity.

We only intend to acquire a single business opportunity and thus your investment will lack diversification.

Because of our limited financial resources, it is unlikely that we will be able to diversify our acquisitions or operations. The inability to diversify our activities into more than one area will subject our investors and stockholders to economic fluctuations within a particular business or industry and therefore increase the risks associated with the investment. We only intend to engage in a business combination with one operating entity.

We have no existing agreement for a business combination or other transaction.

We have no arrangement, agreement or understanding with respect to engaging in a business combination with an operating business. No assurances can be given that we will successfully identify and evaluate suitable business opportunities or that we will conclude a business combination. Management has not identified any particular industry or specific business within an industry for evaluation. We cannot guarantee that we will be able to negotiate a business combination on favorable terms, and there is consequently a risk that funds allocated to the purchase of our shares will not be invested in a company with active business operations. Further, management will seek to structure any such business combination so as not to require stockholder approval.

Management intends to devote only a limited amount of time to seeking a target company which may adversely impact our ability to identify a suitable acquisition candidate.
 
While seeking a business combination, management anticipates devoting very limited time to the Company's affairs. Our sole officer has not entered into a written employment agreement with us and is not expected to do so in the foreseeable future. This limited commitment may adversely impact our ability to identify and consummate a successful business combination. To supplement our search activities, we may be required to employ accountants, technical experts, appraisers, attorneys, or other consultants or advisors. Some of these outside advisors may be our affiliates or their affiliated entities. The selection of any such advisors will be made by our management without any input from stockholders, and the engagement of such persons may reduce the value of your investment.

The time and cost of preparing a private company to become a public reporting company may preclude us from entering into a merger or acquisition with the most attractive private companies.

Target companies that fail to comply with SEC reporting requirements may delay or preclude acquisition. Sections 13 and 15(d) of the Exchange Act require reporting companies to provide certain information about significant acquisitions, including certified financial statements for the company acquired, covering one, two, or three years, depending on the relative size of the acquisition. The time and additional costs that may be incurred by some target entities to prepare these statements may significantly delay or essentially preclude consummation of an acquisition. Otherwise suitable acquisition prospects that do not have or are unable to obtain the required audited statements may be inappropriate for acquisition so long as the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act are applicable. Further, the internal control management assessment and auditor attestation requirements under Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 may limit the number of suitable acquisition prospects if they cannot, or are unwilling to, comply with these requirements.

The Company may be subject to further government regulation which would adversely affect our operations.

Although we will be subject to the reporting requirements under the Exchange Act, management believes we will not be subject to regulation under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”), since we will not be engaged in the business of investing or trading in securities. If we engage in business combinations which result in our holding passive investment interests in a number of entities, we could be subject to regulation under the Investment Company Act. If so, we would be required to register as an investment company and could be expected to incur significant registration and compliance costs. We have obtained no formal determination from the SEC as to our status under the Investment Company Act and, consequently, violation of the Investment Company Act could subject us to material adverse consequences.

Any potential acquisition or merger with a foreign company may subject us to additional risks.

If we enter into a business combination with a foreign company, we will be subject to risks inherent in business operations outside of the United States. These risks include, for example, currency fluctuations, regulatory problems, punitive tariffs, unstable local tax policies, trade embargoes, risks related to shipment of raw materials and finished goods across national borders and cultural and language differences. Foreign economies may differ favorably or unfavorably from the United States economy in growth of gross national product, rate of inflation, market development, rate of savings, and capital investment, resource self-sufficiency and balance of payments positions, and in other respects.

Shares of our common stock are currently very thinly traded, and liquidity of shares of our common stock is limited.

Shares of our common stock will be very thinly traded, and the price if traded may not reflect the value of the Company. Moreover, we just completed a reverse split of the shares which may not reflect the value of the Company either. In connection with a future business combination, we may have to undertake a further reverse split of our shares. There can be no assurance that there will be an active market for our shares either now or after we complete the business combination. The market liquidity will be dependent on the perception of the operating business and any steps that its management might take to bring the company to the awareness of investors. There can be no assurance given that there will be any awareness generated. Consequently investors may not be able to liquidate their investment or liquidate it at a price that reflects the value of the business. If a more active market should develop, the price may be highly volatile. Because there may be a low price for our securities, many brokerage firms may not be willing to effect transactions in the securities. Even if an investor finds a broker willing to effect a transaction in the securities, the combination of brokerage commissions, transfer fees, taxes, if any, and any other selling costs may exceed the selling price. Further, many lending institutions will not permit the use of such securities as collateral for any loans. Our shares of common stock are currently quoted over-the-counter on the Pink Sheets quotation system. Management intends to strongly consider undertaking a business transaction with a private operating company which will allow our shares to be quoted and traded on the Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board (“OTC BB”), NASDAQ Global Market, NASDAQ Capital Market or a national exchange. However, there can be no assurance that, upon a business combination, we will qualify our shares for quotation or listing on NASDAQ or a national exchange, or be able to maintain the criteria necessary to insure continued quotation or listing.
 
We also intend to seek to have our shares of common stock quoted on the OTC BB prior to completion of the business combination; however, there can be no assurances that we will be able to obtain an OTC BB quotation prior to the business combination. In the event we are unable to obtain an OTC BB quotation prior to the business combination, the value of your investment may be reduced since certain attractive target operating businesses may only consider a combination with an OTC BB quoted company.
 
The majority of our shares currently outstanding are "restricted securities" within the meaning of Rule 144 under the Securities Act. As restricted shares, these shares may be resold only pursuant to an effective registration statement or under the requirements of Rule 144 or other applicable exemption from registration under the Securities Act and as required under applicable state securities laws. Rule 144 currently provides in essence that a person who has held restricted securities for a period of one year may, under certain conditions, sell every three months, in brokerage transactions, a number of shares that does not exceed the greater of 1.0% of a company's outstanding common stock. There is no limit on the amount of restricted securities that may be sold by a non-affiliate after the restricted securities have been held by the owner for a period of two years. Current stockholders who own 10% or more of our shares will likely be deemed an affiliate until 90 days after a business combination is completed with a target company. After such 90-day period and assuming said shares have been held for more than two years, these stockholders may be able to sell their shares without volume restrictions. A sale under Rule 144 or under any other exemption from the Securities Act, if available, or pursuant to subsequent registrations of our shares, may have a depressive effect upon the price of our shares in any market that may develop. The SEC has proposed new rules that may shortened the one year holding period under Rule 144 to six months in certain circumstances. There is no assurance that these proposed rules will ultimately be adopted by the SEC in its current form or any other form.

The availability of the exemptions from registration provided by Rule 144 under or Section 4(1) of the Securities Act may be limited in accordance with the letter from Richard K. Wulff, Chief of the Office of Small Business Policy of the Securities and Exchange Commission’s Division of Corporation Finance, to Ken Worm of NASD Regulation, dated January 21, 2000 (the “Wulff Letter”). The Wulff Letter provides that certain private transfers of the shares of common stock also may be prohibited without registration under federal securities laws. The SEC has proposed codifying certain aspects of the Wulff Letter and adjusting some of its provisions. The proposed adjustments include allowing stockholders of a company that was formerly a shell company to be able to utilize the exemption from registration under Rule 144 under certain circumstances following such time as the company is no longer a shell company and certain disclosures have been completed. There is no assurance that this proposal will ultimately be adopted by the SEC in its current form or any other form.

Compliance with the criteria for securing exemptions under federal securities laws and the securities laws of the various states is extremely complex, especially in respect of those exemptions affording flexibility and the elimination of trading restrictions in respect of securities received in exempt transactions and subsequently disposed of without registration under the Securities Act or state securities laws.

There are issues impacting liquidity of our securities with respect to the SEC’s review of a future resale registration statement.

A majority of our shares of common stock currently outstanding are “restricted securities”, the holders thereof have certain registration rights. As such, following the business combination, we will likely file a resale registration statement on Form S-1, or some other available form, to register for resale such shares of common stock. In some cases, we are obligated to file a registration statement for certain restricted shares pursuant to certain registration rights agreements. We cannot control this future registration process in all respects as some matters are outside our control. Even if we are successful in causing the effectiveness of the resale registration statement, there can be no assurances that the occurrence of subsequent events may not preclude our ability to maintain the effectiveness of the registration statement. Any of the foregoing items could have adverse effects on the liquidity of our shares of common stock. Further, a sale of our shares pursuant to an effective registration may have a depressive effect upon the price of our shares in any market that may develop.
 
In addition, the SEC has recently disclosed that it has developed internal guidelines concerning the use of a resale registration statement to register the securities issued to certain investors in private investment in public equity (PIPE) transactions, where the issuer has a market capitalization of less than $75 million and, in general, does not qualify to file a registration statement on Form S-3 to register its securities. The SEC has taken the position that these smaller issuers may not be able to rely on Rule 415 under the Securities Act (“Rule 415”), which generally permits the offer and sale of securities on a continued or delayed basis over a period of time, but instead would require that the issuer offer and sell such securities in a direct or "primary" public offering, at a fixed price, if the facts and circumstances are such that the SEC believes the investors seeking to have their shares registered are underwriters and/or affiliates of the issuer. It appears that the SEC in most cases will permit a registration for resale of up to one third of the total number of shares of common stock then currently owned by persons who are not affiliates of such issuer and, in some cases, a larger percentage depending on the facts and circumstances. Staff members also have indicated that an issuer in most cases will have to wait until the later of six months after effectiveness of the first registration or such time as substantially all securities registered in the first registration are sold before filing a subsequent registration on behalf of the same investors. Since, following a reverse merger or business combination, we may have only a limited number of tradable shares of common stock, it is unclear as to how many, if any, shares of common stock the SEC will permit us to register for resale, but SEC staff members have indicated a willingness to consider a higher percentage in connection with registrations following reverse mergers with shell companies such as the Company. The SEC may require as a condition to the declaration of effectiveness of a resale registration statement that we reduce or “cut back” the number of shares of common stock to be registered in such registration statement. The result of the foregoing is that a stockholder’s liquidity in our common stock may be adversely affected in the event the SEC requires a cut back of the securities as a condition to allow the Company to rely on Rule 415 with respect to a resale registration statement, or, if the SEC requires us to file a primary registration statement.

We have never paid dividends on our common stock.

We have never paid dividends on our common stock and do not presently intend to pay any dividends in the foreseeable future. We anticipate that any funds available for payment of dividends will be re-invested into the Company to further its business strategy.

The Company may be subject to certain tax consequences in our business, which may increase our cost of doing business.

We may not be able to structure our acquisition to result in tax-free treatment for the companies or their stockholders, which could deter third parties from entering into certain business combinations with us or result in being taxed on consideration received in a transaction. Currently, a transaction may be structured so as to result in tax-free treatment to both companies, as prescribed by various federal and state tax provisions. We intend to structure any business combination so as to minimize the federal and state tax consequences to both us and the target entity; however, we cannot guarantee that the business combination will meet the statutory requirements of a tax-free reorganization or that the parties will obtain the intended tax-free treatment upon a transfer of stock or assets. A non-qualifying reorganization could result in the imposition of both federal and state taxes that may have an adverse effect on both parties to the transaction.
 
The Company intends to issue more shares in a business combination, which will result in substantial dilution.

Our Certificate of Incorporation authorizes the issuance of a maximum of 200,000,000 shares of common stock and a maximum of 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock. Any business combination effected by us may result in the issuance of additional securities without stockholder approval and may result in substantial dilution in the percentage of our common stock held by our then existing stockholders. Moreover, the common stock issued in any such business combination transaction may be valued on an arbitrary or non-arm’s-length basis by our management, resulting in an additional reduction in the percentage of common stock held by our then existing stockholders. Our Board of Directors has the power to issue any or all of such authorized but unissued shares without stockholder approval. To the extent that additional shares of common stock or preferred stock are issued in connection with a business combination or otherwise, dilution to the interests of our stockholders will occur and the rights of the holders of common stock may be materially adversely affected.

Our principal stockholder may engage in a transaction to cause the Company to repurchase its shares of common stock.

In order to provide an interest in the Company to a third parties, our principal stockholder may choose to cause the Company to sell Company securities to one or more third parties, with the proceeds of such sale(s) being utilized by the Company to repurchase shares of common stock held by it. As a result of such transaction, our management, principal stockholder(s) and Board of Directors may change.

The Company has conducted no market research or identification of business opportunities, which may affect our ability to identify a business to merge with or acquire.

The Company has not conducted market research concerning prospective business opportunities, nor have others made the results of such market research available to the Company. Therefore, we have no assurances that market demand exists for a merger or acquisition as contemplated by us. Our management has not identified any specific business combination or other transactions for formal evaluation by us, such that it may be expected that any such target business or transaction will present such a level of risk that conventional private or public offerings of securities or conventional bank financing will not be available. There is no assurance that we will be able to acquire a business opportunity on terms favorable to us. Decisions as to which business opportunity to participate in will be unilaterally made by our management, which may act without the consent, vote or approval of our stockholders.

Because we may seek to complete a business combination through a “reverse merger”, following such a transaction we may not be able to attract the attention of major brokerage firms.
 
Additional risks may exist since we will assist a privately held business to become public through a “reverse merger.” Securities analysts of major brokerage firms may not provide coverage of our Company since there is no incentive to brokerage firms to recommend the purchase of our common stock. No assurance can be given that brokerage firms will want to conduct any secondary offerings on behalf of our post-merger company in the future.
 
We cannot assure you that following a business combination with an operating business, our common stock will be listed on NASDAQ or any other securities exchange.
 
Following a business combination, we may seek the listing of our common stock on NASDAQ or the American Stock Exchange. However, we cannot assure you that following such a transaction, we will be able to meet the initial listing standards of either of those or any other stock exchange, or that we will be able to maintain a listing of our common stock on either of those or any other stock exchange. After completing a business combination, until our common stock is listed on the NASDAQ or another stock exchange, we expect that our common stock would be eligible to trade on the OTC Bulletin Board, another over-the-counter quotation system, or on the “pink sheets,” where our stockholders may find it more difficult to dispose of shares or obtain accurate quotations as to the market value of our common stock. In addition, we would be subject to an SEC rule that, if it failed to meet the criteria set forth in such rule, imposes various practice requirements on broker-dealers who sell securities governed by the rule to persons other than established customers and accredited investors. Consequently, such rule may deter broker-dealers from recommending or selling our common stock, which may further affect its liquidity. This would also make it more difficult for us to raise additional capital following a business combination.
 
Our Certificate of Incorporation authorizes the issuance of preferred stock by our Board of Directors.

Our Certificate of Incorporation authorizes the issuance of up to 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock with designations, rights and preferences determined from time to time by our Board of Directors. Accordingly, our Board of Directors is empowered, without stockholder approval, to issue preferred stock with dividend, liquidation, conversion, voting, or other rights which could adversely affect the voting power or other rights of the holders of the common stock. In the event of issuance, the preferred stock could be utilized, under certain circumstances, as a method of discouraging, delaying or preventing a change in control of the Company. Although we have no present intention to issue any shares of its authorized preferred stock, there can be no assurance that the Company will not do so in the future.

 (b)  Common and Preferred Stock

The Company is authorized by its Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, to issue an aggregate of 210,000,000 shares of capital stock, of which 200,000,000 are shares of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the "Common Stock") and 10,000,000 are shares of preferred stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Preferred Stock”).

On August 27, 2007, the Company’s Board of Directors designated 1,600,000 shares of preferred stock as Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (“Series A Preferred Stock”). A copy of the Certificate of Designation of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock is attached hereto as Exhibit 3.2. Each share of Series A Preferred Stock was automatically convertible into 16.28982 shares of fully paid and non-assessable common stock upon the Company’s completion of a reverse stock split. The holders of Series A Preferred Stock were entitled to vote the number of shares of common stock they were entitled to upon conversion on all matters presented to a vote of the common stockholders.

On September 12, 2007, the Company completed the sale of 1,572,770 shares of Series A Preferred Stock to KIG Investors for a purchase price of $157,277. The shares of Series A Preferred Stock were automatically convertible into the Company’s common stock at such time as the Company completed a 1-for-10 reverse stock split (“Reverse Split”).

On September 25, 2007, the Company completed a 1-for-10 reverse stock split of its outstanding common stock. The Reverse Split provided for the round up of fractional shares and the special treatment of certain shareholders as follows:

 
a.
shareholders holding less than 100 shares of common stock as of the record date will not be affected by the Reverse Split and will hold the same number of shares both before and after the Reverse Split;

 
b.
shareholders holding 1,000 or fewer shares of common stock, but at least 100 shares of common stock as of the record date will hold 100 shares of common stock following the Reverse Split; and

 
c.
all fractional shares as a result of the Reverse Split will be rounded up.

As a result of the Reverse Split, the Series A Preferred Stock held by KIG Investors were automatically converted into 2,562,015 shares of common stock, on a post-reverse split basis. Upon the conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock, the 1,600,000 shares of Preferred Stock previously designated as Series A Preferred Stock were automatically returned to the status of authorized and unissued shares of preferred stock, available for future designation and issuance pursuant to the terms of the Certificate of Incorporation.

In connection with the Reverse Split, effective September 25, 2007, the Company also amended its certificate of incorporation to reduce the par value of its common stock and preferred stock from $0.01 to $0.0001 per share and to increase the number of authorized shares of common stock from 40,000,000 to 200,000,000 shares.

As of December 3, 2007, after giving effect to the Reverse Split, there were 4,331,131 shares of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, issued and outstanding. Except as otherwise noted, all references to shares of the Company’s common stock herein shall refer to the shares of common stock after giving effect to the Reverse Split and the reduction of the par value per share.
 
Common Stock

All outstanding shares of Common Stock are of the same class and have equal rights and attributes. The holders of Common Stock are entitled to one vote per share on all matters submitted to a vote of stockholders of the Company. All stockholders are entitled to share equally in dividends, if any, as may be declared from time to time by the Board of Directors out of funds legally available. In the event of liquidation, the holders of Common Stock are entitled to share ratably in all assets remaining after payment of all liabilities. The stockholders do not have cumulative or preemptive rights.

Preferred Stock

Our Certificate of Incorporation authorizes the issuance of up to 10,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock with designations, rights and preferences determined from time to time by its Board of Directors. Accordingly, our Board of Directors is empowered, without stockholder approval, to issue Preferred Stock with dividend, liquidation, conversion, voting, or other rights which could adversely affect the voting power or other rights of the holders of the Common Stock. In the event of issuance, the Preferred Stock could be utilized, under certain circumstances, as a method of discouraging, delaying or preventing a change in control of the Company. Although we have no present intention to issue any shares of our authorized Preferred Stock, there can be no assurance that the Company will not do so in the future.

The description of certain matters relating to the securities of the Company is a summary and is qualified in its entirety by the provisions of the Company's Certificate of Incorporation and By-Laws, copies of which have been filed or incorporated by reference as exhibits to this Form 10-K.

Registration Rights Granted to the Investor and Laurus

On September 12, 2007, the Company offered certain registration rights to KIG Investors in connection with the Preferred Stock Purchase, pursuant to the terms and conditions contained in that certain registration rights agreement, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.4 (the “KIG Registration Rights Agreement”). On September 14, 2007, the Company offered certain registration rights to Laurus in connection with the issuance of shares of the Company’s common stock in settlement of certain debt obligations, pursuant to the terms and conditions contained in that certain registration rights agreement, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.9 (“Laurus Registration Rights Agreement”). The terms and conditions of the KIG Registration Rights Agreement and the Laurus Registration Rights Agreement are substantially similar. The KIG Registration Rights Agreement and the Laurus Registration Rights Agreement are referred to herein as the “Registration Rights Agreements”. The number of shares subject to registration rights for each of the above holders is as follows:

Stockholder
 
Number of Shares Subject to Registration Rights (on a
post-reverse split basis)
 
KIG Investors I, LLC
    2,562,015  
Laurus Master Fund, Ltd.
    1,108,172  
 
Pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreements, commencing on the date that is thirty (30) days after the date the Company completes a business combination with a private company in a reverse merger or reverse take-over transaction (a “Reverse Merger”), the stockholders shall each have a separate one-time right to request the Company to register for resale the shares of Common Stock held by such persons. The Company is required to cause the registration statement filed as a result of such requests to be declared effective under the Securities Act as promptly as possible after the filing thereof and shall keep the demand registration statement continuously effective under the Securities Act until the earlier of (i) two years after its effective date, (ii) such time as all of the shares of Common Stock covered by such registration statement have been publicly sold by the stockholders, or (iii) such time as all of the shares of Common Stock covered by such registration statement may be sold by the stockholders pursuant to Rule 144(k). Further, if all of the shares of Common Stock to be included in the registration statement filed cannot be so included due to certain comments from the SEC, and there is not an effective registration statement otherwise covering the shares of Common Stock, then the Company is obligated to prepare and file such registration statement(s) for such number of additional registration statements as may be necessary in order to ensure that all shares of Common Stock are covered by an existing and effective registration statement.

Additionally, the Registration Rights Agreement provides the stockholders with “piggyback” registration rights such that at any time there is not an effective registration statement covering the shares of Common Stock, and the Company files a registration statement relating to an offering for its own account or the account of others under the Securities Act of any of its equity securities, other than on Form S-4 or Form S-8 (each as promulgated under the Securities Act) or their then equivalents relating to equity securities to be issued solely in connection with any acquisition of any entity or business or equity securities issuable in connection with stock option or other employee benefit plans, then the Company is required to send written notice to the stockholders of such intended filings at least twenty (20) days prior thereto and is required to automatically include in such registration statement all shares of Common Stock held by the stockholders for resale and offer on a continuous basis pursuant to Rule 415; provided, however, that (i) if, at any time after giving written notice of its intention to register any securities and prior to the effective date of the registration statement filed in connection with such registration, the Company determines for any reason not to proceed with such registration, the Company will be relieved of its obligation to register any shares of Common Stock in connection with such registration, (ii) in case of a determination by the Company to delay registration of its securities, the Company will be permitted to delay the registration of shares of Common Stock for the same period as the delay in registering such other securities, (iii) each stockholder is subject to confidentiality obligations with respect to any information gained in this process or any other material non-public information he, she or it obtains, (iv) each stockholder is subject to all applicable laws relating to insider trading or similar restrictions; and (v) if all of the shares of Common Stock of the stockholders cannot be so included due to certain comments from the SEC, then the Company may reduce the number of each stockholders’ shares of Common Stock covered by such registration statement to the maximum number which would enable the Company to conduct such offering in accordance with the provisions of Rule 415.

The stockholders shall be entitled to include all shares of Common Stock for resale in the registration statement filed by the Company in connection with a public offering of equity securities by the Company, pursuant to Rule 415, so long as (1) such shares shall not be included as part of the underwritten offering of primary shares by the Company, unless the Company and underwriter agree to allow the inclusion of such shares of Common Stock as part of the underwritten offering and, in such event, the stockholders elect to include the shares of Common Stock in the underwriting subject to an allocation among all stockholders of registration rights in the manner set forth in the Registration Rights Agreement, (2) the underwriter approves the inclusion of such shares of Common Stock in such registration statement, subject to customary underwriter cutbacks applicable to all stockholders of registration rights, (3) the stockholders shall enter into the underwriters’ form of lockup agreement as and to the extent requested by the underwriters, which may require that all of the shares of Common Stock held by the stockholders not be sold or otherwise transferred without the consent of the underwriters for a period not to exceed 180 days from the closing of the offering contemplated by the registration statement, and (4) if all of the shares of Common Stock of the stockholders cannot be so included due to certain comments from the SEC, then the Company may reduce the number of each stockholders’ shares of Common Stock covered by such registration statement to the maximum number which would enable the Company to conduct such offering in accordance with the provisions of Rule 415.
 
The Registration Rights Agreement contains a cut-back provision, whereby, in the event all of the all of the shares of Common Stock held by the stockholders cannot be included in a registration statement due to certain comments by the SEC or underwriter cutbacks, then the Company, unless otherwise prohibited by the SEC, shall cause the shares of Common Stock of the stockholders to be included in such registration statement to be reduced pro rata based on the number of shares of Common Stock held by all holders of registration rights.
 
The registration rights afforded to the stockholders shall terminate on the earliest date when all shares of Common Stock of the stockholders either: (i) have been publicly sold by the stockholders pursuant to a registration statement, (ii) have been covered by an effective registration statement which has been effective for an aggregate period of twelve (12) months (whether or not consecutive), or (iii) may be sold by the stockholders pursuant to Rule 144(k), or Rule 144 without regard to the volume limitations for sales as provided in that regulation, as determined by the counsel to the Company pursuant to a written opinion letter to such effect, addressed and acceptable to the Company's transfer agent and the affected stockholders.
 
Each stockholder shall also indemnify the Company, each of its directors, each of its officers who signs the Registration Statement and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act against damages arising out of or based upon: (i) such stockholder’s provision of any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact to be contained in any registration statement or prospectus or in connection with the qualification of the offering under the securities or other “blue sky” laws of any jurisdiction, or arising out of or relating to any such stockholder’s omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements contained in such registration statement or prospectus not misleading or (ii) such stockholder’s violation or alleged violation by the Company of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, any other law, including, without limitation, any state securities law, or any rule or regulation thereunder relating to the offer or sale of the shares of Common Stock pursuant to a registration statement or (iii) such stockholder’s violation of the Registration Rights Agreement.

The Other Registration Rights Agreements provide the stockholders with “piggyback” registration rights such that at any time there is not an effective registration statement covering the shares of Common Stock, and the Company files a registration statement relating to an offering for its own account or the account of others under the Securities Act of any of its equity securities, other than on Form S-4 or Form S-8 (each as promulgated under the Securities Act) or their then equivalents relating to equity securities to be issued solely in connection with any acquisition of any entity or business or equity securities issuable in connection with stock option or other employee benefit plans, then the Company is required to send written notice to the stockholders of such intended filings at least twenty (20) days prior thereto and is required to automatically include in such registration statement all shares of Common Stock held by the stockholders for resale and offer on a continuous basis pursuant to Rule 415; provided, however, that (i) if, at any time after giving written notice of its intention to register any securities and prior to the effective date of the registration statement filed in connection with such registration, the Company determines for any reason not to proceed with such registration, the Company will be relieved of its obligation to register any shares of Common Stock in connection with such registration, (ii) in case of a determination by the Company to delay registration of its securities, the Company will be permitted to delay the registration of shares of Common Stock for the same period as the delay in registering such other securities, (iii) each stockholder is subject to confidentiality obligations with respect to any information gained in this process or any other material non-public information he, she or it obtains, (iv) each stockholder is subject to all applicable laws relating to insider trading or similar restrictions; and (v) if all of the shares of Common Stock of the stockholders cannot be so included due to certain comments from the SEC, then the Company may reduce the number of each stockholders’ shares of Common Stock covered by such registration statement to the maximum number which would enable the Company to conduct such offering in accordance with the provisions of Rule 415. 
 
The stockholders shall be entitled to include all shares of Common Stock for resale in the registration statement filed by the Company in connection with a public offering of equity securities by the Company, pursuant to Rule 415, so long as (1) such shares shall not be included as part of the underwritten offering of primary shares by the Company, unless the Company and underwriter agree to allow the inclusion of such shares of Common Stock as part of the underwritten offering and, in such event, the stockholders elect to include the shares of Common Stock in the underwriting subject to an allocation among all stockholders of registration rights in the manner set forth in the Other Registration Rights Agreements, (2) the underwriter approves the inclusion of such shares of Common Stock in such registration statement, subject to customary underwriter cutbacks applicable to all stockholders of registration rights, (3) the stockholders shall enter into the underwriters’ form of lockup agreement as and to the extent requested by the underwriters, which may require that all of the shares of Common Stock held by the stockholders not be sold or otherwise transferred without the consent of the underwriters for a period not to exceed 180 days from the closing of the offering contemplated by the registration statement, and (4) if all of the shares of Common Stock of the stockholders cannot be so included due to certain comments from the SEC, then the Company may reduce the number of each stockholders’ shares of Common Stock covered by such registration statement to the maximum number which would enable the Company to conduct such offering in accordance with the provisions of Rule 415.
 
15

 
The Other Registration Rights Agreements contain a cut-back provision, whereby, in the event all of the all of the shares of Common Stock held by the stockholders cannot be included in a registration statement due to certain comments by the SEC or underwriter cutbacks, then the Company, unless otherwise prohibited by the SEC, shall cause the shares of Common Stock of the stockholders to be included in such registration statement to be reduced pro rata based on the number of shares of Common Stock held by all holders of registration rights.
 
The registration rights afforded to the stockholders shall terminate on the earliest date when all shares of Common Stock of the stockholders either: (i) have been publicly sold by the stockholders pursuant to a registration statement, (ii) have been covered by an effective registration statement which has been effective for an aggregate period of twelve (12) months (whether or not consecutive), or (iii) may be sold by the stockholders pursuant to Rule 144(k), or Rule 144 without regard to the volume limitations for sales as provided in that regulation, as determined by the counsel to the Company pursuant to a written opinion letter to such effect, addressed and acceptable to the Company's transfer agent and the affected stockholders.
 
Each stockholder shall also indemnify the Company, each of its directors, each of its officers who signs the Registration Statement and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act against damages arising out of or based upon: (i) such stockholder’s provision of any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact to be contained in any registration statement or prospectus or in connection with the qualification of the offering under the securities or other “blue sky” laws of any jurisdiction, or arising out of or relating to any such stockholder’s omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements contained in such registration statement or prospectus not misleading or (ii) such stockholder’s violation or alleged violation by the Company of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, any other law, including, without limitation, any state securities law, or any rule or regulation thereunder relating to the offer or sale of the shares of Common Stock pursuant to a registration statement or (iii) such stockholder’s violation of the Other Registration Rights Agreement.

As of September 30, 2008, there were 34 record holders of our common stock and approximately 23 beneficial holders who held our common stock in street name.

Our securities are subject to the SEC's “penny stock” rules. The penny stock rules may affect the ability of owners of our shares to sell them. There may be a limited market for penny stocks due to the regulatory burdens on broker-dealers. The market among dealers may not be active. Investments in penny stocks often are unable to sell stock back to the dealer that sold them the stock. The mark-ups or commissions charged by the broker-dealers might be greater than any profit an investor may make. Because of large spreads that market makers quote, investors may be unable to sell the stock immediately back to the dealer at the same price the dealer sold the stock to the investor.

Our securities are also subject to the SEC’s rule that imposes special sales practice requirements upon broker-dealers that sell such securities to other than established customers or accredited investors. For purposes of the rule, the phrase “accredited investor” means, in general terms, institutions with assets exceeding $5,000,000 or individuals having net worth in excess of $1,000,000 or having an annual income that exceeds $200,000 (or that, combined with a spouse’s income, exceeds $300,000). For transactions covered by the rule, the broker-dealer must make a special suitability determination for the purchaser and receive the purchaser’s written agreement to the transaction prior to the sale. Consequently, the rule may affect the ability of purchasers of our securities to buy or sell in any market.

(i) Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities

On September 12, 2007, the Company completed the sale of 1,572,770 shares of Series A Preferred Stock to KIG Investors for a purchase price of $157,277. The shares of Series A Preferred Stock were automatically convertible into the Company’s common stock at such time as the Company completed a 1-for-10 reverse stock split (“Reverse Split”). On September 25, 2007, the Company completed a 1-for-10 reverse stock split of its outstanding common stock. As a result of the Reverse Split, the Series A Preferred Stock held by KIG Investors were automatically converted into 2,562,015 shares of common stock, on a post-reverse split basis.

On September 14, 2007, the Company issued Feldman Weinstein & Smith, LLP (“FWS”), former legal counsel to the Company, and Halliburton Investor Relations (“HIR”), the Company’s former investor relation firm, an aggregate of 71,086 shares of common stock, on a post-reverse split basis, valued at $7,109 or approximately $0.10 per share, in satisfaction of accrued liabilities totaling $73,260, resulting in income from discharge of indebtedness of $66,151 being recorded.
 
On September 14, 2007, the Company also entered into an agreement with Laurus Master Fund, Ltd. (“Laurus”), the Company’s secured creditor, for the issuance of common stock in complete settlement of amounts owed to it for certain loans and accrued interest. Pursuant to this equity settlement, the Company issued 1,083,172 shares of common stock, on a post-reverse split basis, valued at $108,317 or approximately $0.10 per share, in satisfaction of principal under notes of $820,024 and accrued interest of $121,095, resulting in income from discharge of indebtedness of $832,802 being recorded.

In consideration of the above stock issuances, the Company granted certain registration rights to the holders thereof. See Part II, Item 5(b) for a discussion of the registration rights granted in connection with the above stock issuances.
 
In connection with the above stock issuance, we did not pay any underwriting discounts or commissions. None of the sales of securities described or referred to above was registered under the Securities Act. Each of the purchasers fell into one or more of the categories that follow: an existing shareholder, a creditor, a current or former officer or director, a service provider, or an accredited investor with whom we or an affiliate of ours had a prior business relationship. As a result, no general solicitation or advertising was used in connection with the sales. In making the sales without registration under the Securities Act, we relied upon one or more of the exemptions from registration including those contained in Sections 4(2) of the Securities Act. The purchasers represented in writing that they acquired the securities for their own accounts. A legend was placed on the stock certificates stating that the securities have not been registered under the Securities Act and cannot be sold or otherwise transferred without an effective registration or an exemption therefrom.

Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operations

(a) Forward-Looking Statements

This report contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. These statements relate to future events or our future financial performance. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology including, "could" "may", "will", "should", "expect", "plan", "anticipate", "believe", "estimate", "predict", "potential" and the negative of these terms or other comparable terminology. These statements are only predictions. Actual events or results may differ materially.

While these forward-looking statements, and any assumptions upon which they are based, are made in good faith and reflect our current judgment regarding the direction of our business, actual results will almost always vary, sometimes materially, from any estimates, predictions, projections, assumptions or other future performance suggested in this Annual Report.

(b) Results of Operations 
 
For the twelve months ended September 30, 2007 and 2008, the Company had no revenues from continuing operations.

For the twelve months ended September 30, 2008, the Company had a loss from operations of $(39,288), as compared with a loss from operations of $(118,450) for the twelve months ended September 30, 2007.

For the twelve months ended September 30, 2008, the Company incurred interest expense of $0, as compared with interest expense of $79,678 for the twelve months ended September 30, 2007. The reduction in interest expense was primarily attributed to the settlement of certain notes in the quarter ended September 30, 2007.
 
19

 
For the twelve months ended September 30, 2008, the Company had a net loss of $(39,288) as compared with net income of $861,640 for the twelve months ended September 30, 2007, primarily related to discharge income of $1,059,768 for the period.

(c) Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of September 30, 2008 and 2007, the Company had assets equal to $35,295 and $76,696, respectively, comprised exclusively of cash and cash equivalents. The Company’s current liabilities as of September 30, 2008 and 2007 were $6,250 and $8,363, respectively, comprised exclusively of accrued expenses.
 
The following is a summary of the Company’s cash flows provided by (used in) operating, investing, and financing activities for the twelve months ended September 30, 2008 and 2007:

   
Twelve months

Net effect on cash
  $ (41,401 )   $ 76,696  

 The Company currently has nominal assets, no active business operations and no sources of revenues. The Company is dependent upon the receipt of capital investment or other financing to fund its ongoing operations and to execute its business plan of seeking a combination with a private operating company. In addition, the Company is dependent upon certain related parties to provide continued funding and capital resources. If continued funding and capital resources are unavailable at reasonable terms, the Company may not be able to implement its plan of operations. Our financial statements indicate that without additional capital, there is substantial doubt as to our ability to continue as a going concern. 

(d) Going Concern 

We currently have no source of operating revenue, and have only limited working capital with which to pursue our business plan, which contemplates the completion of a business combination with an operating company. The amount of capital required to sustain operations until the successful completion of a business combination is subject to future events and uncertainties. It may be necessary for us to secure additional working capital through loans or sales of common stock, and there can be no assurance that such funding will be available in the future. These conditions raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our auditor has issued a "going concern" qualification as part of his opinion in the Audit Report for the year ended September 30, 2008.
 
(e) Critical Accounting Policies

The preparation of financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, revenues and expenses and related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities in the financial statements and accompanying notes. The SEC has defined a company’s critical accounting policies as the ones that are most important to the portrayal of the company’s financial condition and results of operations, and which require the company to make its most difficult and subjective judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates of matters that are inherently uncertain. We believe that our estimates and assumptions are reasonable under the circumstances; however, actual results may vary from these estimates and assumptions. We have identified in Note 2 - “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” to the Financial Statements contained in Item 8 of this document certain critical accounting policies that affect the more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of the financial statements.
 
20

 
(f) Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements 

We have not entered into 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 and would be considered material to investors.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
 
To the Board of Directors
Catalyst Lighting Group, Inc.

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Catalyst Lighting Group, Inc. (the “Company”) as of September 30, 2008 and 2007, and the related statement of operations, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the years then ended.  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 (U.S.).  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.  An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.  We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Catalyst Lighting Group, Inc. as of September 30, 2008 and 2007, and the result of its operations and cash flows for each of the years then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

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 Company has incurred operating losses since its inception and has a deficit in accumulated earnings.  These conditions raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern.  The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Notes to Financial Statements
September 30, 2008

 
1.
Basis of Presentation and Organization
 
Organization and Business
The Company was incorporated in the State of Delaware on March 7, 2001.  On August 27, 2003, the Company completed the reverse acquisition of Whitco Company, L.P. (“Whitco”).  Whitco was a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company and was engaged in the manufacture and sale of area lighting poles to distributors throughout the United States of America.
 
On March 15, 2006, Whitco voluntarily filed for protection under Chapter 11 of the U.S. bankruptcy laws.  On April 25, 2006, the bankruptcy court approved a sale of Whitco’s assets (other than cash and accounts receivable) used in its area lighting pole business.  The assets were sold free and clear of any liens and encumbrances to a third party purchaser pursuant to Section 363 of the U.S Bankruptcy Code.  The purchaser issued a common stock purchase warrant to acquire shares of the purchaser’s common stock as consideration for the assets purchased (“Purchase Warrant”).
 
On May 16, 2006, Whitco filed a motion to convert its bankruptcy case to a Chapter 7 liquidation proceeding.  This motion was granted by the bankruptcy court on July 13, 2006.  In connection with the liquidation, the Purchase Warrant and Whitco’s cash and accounts receivable were assigned and distributed to Whitco’s secured creditor.  As part of the Chapter 7 bankruptcy proceedings, no assets were available for distribution to unsecured creditors and, accordingly, these unsatisfied obligations were relieved as part of the liquidation in accordance with the provisions of Chapter 7 of U.S. bankruptcy laws.
 
Since Whitco’s liquidation in bankruptcy, the Company has had nominal assets and nominal business operations and its business strategy has been to investigate and, if such investigation warrants, acquire a target company or business seeking the perceived advantages of being a publicly held corporation.  In furtherance of this business strategy, on July 25, 2006, the Company voluntarily filed for protection under Chapter 11 of the U.S. bankruptcy laws.  The Company subsequently determined to withdraw from bankruptcy court protection and, on motion made by the U.S. trustee, the bankruptcy court ordered the case dismissed on January 9, 2007.  Since the dismissal of the Company’s bankruptcy case, the Company has settled its outstanding liabilities with creditors and is now in a position to actively seek a target company.   In addition, effective February 22, 2007, the Company experienced a change in control and its management changed, pursuant to a Securities Purchase Agreement by and between the Company and KIG Investors I, LLC (“Investor”) (see Note 3).
 
The Company’s principal business objective for the next 12 months and beyond such time will be to achieve long-term growth potential through a combination with a business rather than immediate, short-term earnings.  The Company will not restrict its potential candidate target companies to any specific business, industry or geographical location and, thus, may acquire any type of business.

Basis of Presentation
The accompanying financial statements include the accounts of the Company.  The operations of Whitco, prior to the disposition of Whitco’s assets, are excluded from continuing operations.

Going Concern
Since inception, the Company and its former subsidiary have a cumulative net loss of $4,122,374.  Since inception, the Company has also been dependent upon the receipt of capital investment or other financing to fund its operations.  The Company currently has no source of operating revenue, and has only limited working capital with which to pursue its business plan, which contemplates the completion of a business combination with an operating company.  The amount of capital required to sustain operations until the successful completion of a business combination is subject to future events and uncertainties.  It may be necessary for the Company to secure additional working capital through loans or sales of common stock, and there can be no assurance that such funding will be available in the future.  These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
 
The accompanying financial statements have been presented on the basis of the continuation of the Company as a going concern and do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
 
2.
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
 
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses.  Actual results could differ from these estimates.
 
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes (“SFAS No. 109”), which requires the recognition of deferred tax liabilities and assets at currently enacted tax rates for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements or tax returns. A valuation allowance is recognized to reduce the net deferred tax asset to an amount that is more likely than not to be realized.  The tax provision shown on the accompanying statement of operations is zero since the deferred tax asset generated from net operating losses is offset in its entirety by a valuation allowance.  State minimum taxes are expensed as incurred.

Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents, if any, include all highly liquid instruments with an original maturity of three months or less at the date of purchase.
 
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The Company's financial instruments are comprised of accrued expenses.  The carrying amounts of financial instruments approximate fair value due to their short maturities.
 
Net Loss Per Share
Basic loss per share (EPS) is calculated by dividing the loss available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period.  Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock.  The Company currently has no dilutive securities and as such, basic and diluted loss per share are the same for all periods presented.
 
Comprehensive Loss
Comprehensive loss is defined as all changes in stockholders’ equity (deficit), exclusive of transactions with owners, such as capital investments. Comprehensive loss includes net loss, changes in certain assets and liabilities that are reported directly in equity such as translation adjustments on investments in foreign subsidiaries and unrealized gains (losses) on available-for-sale securities. For the year ended September 30, 2008, the Company’s comprehensive loss was the same as its net loss.

Stock Compensation for Services Rendered
The Company accounts for equity instruments issued to non-employees in accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 123 and Emerging Issues Task Force ("EITF") Issue No. 96-18, "Accounting for Equity Instruments That Are Issued to Other Than Employees for Acquiring, or in Conjunction with Selling, Goods or Services." All transactions in which goods or services are the consideration received for the issuance of equity instruments are accounted for based on the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instrument issued, whichever is more reliably measurable. The measurement date of the fair value of the equity instrument issued is the earlier of the date on which the counterparty's performance is complete or the date on which it is probable that performance will occur.
 
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
In March 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 161, “Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities – an amendment of SFAS No. 133.” This Statement amends and expands the disclosure requirements by requiring qualitative disclosures about objectives and strategies for using derivatives, quantitative disclosures about fair value amounts of, and gains and losses on, derivative instruments, and disclosures about credit risk-related contingent features in derivative agreements. SFAS No. 161 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after November 15, 2008.
 
In April 2008, the FASB approved FSP FAS 142-3, “Determination of the Useful Life of Intangible Assets.” FSP FAS 142-3 amends the factors that should be considered in developing renewal or extension assumptions used to determine the useful life of a recognized intangible asset under SFAS No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets.” FSP FAS 142-3 is effective for the Company’s fiscal year beginning October 1, 2009, with early adoption prohibited.
 
In May 2008, the FASB approved FSP APB 14-1, “Accounting for Convertible Debt Instruments That May Be Settled in Cash upon Conversion (Including Partial Cash Settlement).” FSP APB 14-1 clarifies that convertible debt instruments that may be settled in cash upon conversion (including partial cash settlement) are not addressed by paragraph 12 of APB Opinion No. 14, “Accounting for Convertible Debt and Debt issued with Stock Purchase Warrants.” Additionally, FSP APB 14-1 specifies that issuers of such instruments should separately account for the liability and equity components in a manner that will reflect the entity’s nonconvertible debt borrowing rate when interest cost is recognized in subsequent periods. FSP APB 14-1 is effective for the Company’s fiscal year beginning October 1, 2009.
 
In June 2008, the FASB issued FSP EITF 03-6-1, “Determining Whether Instruments Granted in Share-Based Payment Transactions Are Participating Securities.” FSP EITF 03-6-1 addresses whether instruments granted in share-based payment transactions are participating securities prior to vesting and, therefore, need to be included in computing earnings per share under the two-class method described in SFAS No. 128, “Earnings Per Share.” FSP EITF 03-6-1 requires companies to treat unvested share-based payment awards that have non-forfeitable rights to dividend or dividend equivalents as a separate class of securities in calculating earnings per share. FSP EITF 03-6-1 will be effective for the Company’s fiscal year beginning October 1, 2009, with early adoption prohibited.
 
The adoption of these new Statements, when effective, are not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

At September 30, 2008, the Company had a net operating loss carryforward for federal and state income tax purposes of approximately $3.6 million available to offset future taxable income through 2028.
 
A valuation allowance of $1.2 million was established at September 30, 2008 to offset the benefit from the net operating loss carryforward to the extent it is more likely than not, based upon available evidence,  that the recorded value will not be realized.  Realization is dependent on the existence of sufficient taxable income within the carryforward period. In August 2007, upon the issuance of common shares in settlement of liabilities, the Company underwent a change of control pursuant to Section 382 of the internal revenue code.  Net operating losses prior to the change of control are limited in post change periods under Section 382 to approximately $12,000 per year.

(e) Audit Committee and Audit Committee Financial Expert

The Company is not a "listed company" under SEC rules and is therefore not required to have an audit committee comprised of independent directors. The Company does not currently have an audit committee, however, for certain purposes of the rules and regulations of the SEC and in accordance with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, the Company's board of directors is deemed to be its audit committee and as such functions as an audit committee and performs some of the same functions as an audit committee including: (1) selection and oversight of the Company’s independent accountant; (2) establishing procedures for the receipt, retention and treatment of complaints regarding accounting, internal controls and auditing matters; and (3) engaging outside advisors. The Company's board of directors has determined that its members do not include a person who is an "audit committee financial expert" within the meaning of the rules and regulations of the SEC. The board of directors has determined that each of its members is able to read and understand fundamental financial statements and has substantial business experience that results in that member's financial sophistication. Accordingly, the board of directors believes that each of its members have the sufficient knowledge and experience necessary to fulfill the duties and obligations that an audit committee would have.

(f) Code of Ethics

A code of ethics relates to written standards that are reasonably designed to deter wrongdoing and to promote:
 
 
o
Honest and ethical conduct, including the ethical handling of actual or apparent conflicts of interest between personal and professional relationships;
 
o
Full, fair, accurate, timely and understandable disclosure in reports and documents that are filed with, or submitted to, the SEC and in other public communications made by an issuer;
 
o
Compliance with applicable governmental laws, rules and regulations;
 
o
The prompt internal reporting of violations of the code to an appropriate person or persons identified in the code; and
 
o
Accountability for adherence to the code.
 
Due to the limited scope of the Company’s current operations, the Company has not adopted a corporate code of ethics that applies to its executive officers.

(g) Conflicts of Interest

Certain conflicts of interest exist and may continue to exist between the Company and its officers and directors due to the fact that each has other business interests to which they devote their primary attention. Each officer and director may continue to do so notwithstanding the fact that management time should be devoted to the business of the Company.

Certain conflicts of interest may exist between the Company and its management, and conflicts may develop in the future. The Company has not established policies or procedures for the resolution of current or potential conflicts of interest between the Company, its officers and directors or affiliated entities. There can be no assurance that management will resolve all conflicts of interest in favor of the Company, and conflicts of interest may arise that can be resolved only through the exercise by management their best judgment as may be consistent with their fiduciary duties. Management will try to resolve conflicts to the best advantage of all concerned.

(h) Board Meetings; Nominating and Compensation Committees

The Board of Directors took a number of actions by written consent of all of the directors during the fiscal year ended September 30, 2007. Such actions by the written consent of all directors are, according to Delaware corporate law and the Company’s by-laws, as valid and effective as if they had been passed at a meeting of the directors duly called and held. The Company's directors and officers do not receive remuneration from the Company unless approved by the Board of Directors or pursuant to an employment contract. No compensation has been paid to the Company's directors for attendance at any meetings during the last fiscal year.

The Company does not have standing nominating or compensation committees, or committees performing similar functions. The Company’s board of directors believes that it is not necessary to have a compensation committee at this time because the functions of such committee are adequately performed by the board of directors. The board of directors also is of the view that it is appropriate for the Company not to have a standing nominating committee because the board of directors has performed and will perform adequately the functions of a nominating committee. The Company is not a "listed company" under SEC rules and is therefore not required to have a compensation committee or a nominating committee.

(i) Shareholder Communications

There has not been any defined policy or procedure requirements for stockholders to submit recommendations or nomination for directors. The board of directors does not believe that a defined policy with regard to the consideration of candidates recommended by stockholders is necessary at this time because it believes that, given the limited scope of the Company’s operations, a specific nominating policy would be premature and of little assistance until the Company’s business operations are at a more advanced level. There are no specific, minimum qualifications that the board of directors believes must be met by a candidate recommended by the board of directors. Currently, the entire board of directors decides on nominees, on the recommendation of any member of the board of directors followed by the board’s review of the candidates’ resumes and interview of candidates. Based on the information gathered, the board of directors then makes a decision on whether to recommend the candidates as nominees for director. The Company does not pay any fee to any third party or parties to identify or evaluate or assist in identifying or evaluating potential nominee.
 
The Company does not have any restrictions on shareholder nominations under its certificate of incorporation or by-laws. The only restrictions are those applicable generally under Delaware corporate law and the federal proxy rules, to the extent such rules are or become applicable. The board of directors will consider suggestions from individual shareholders, subject to evaluation of the person's merits. Stockholders may communicate nominee suggestions directly to the board of directors, accompanied by biographical details and a statement of support for the nominees. The suggested nominee must also provide a statement of consent to being considered for nomination. There are no formal criteria for nominees.

Because the management and directors of the Company are the same persons, the Board of Directors has determined not to adopt a formal methodology for communications from shareholders on the belief that any communication would be brought to the board of directors’ attention by virtue of the co-extensive capacities served by Kevin R. Keating.

(j) Indemnification

Under Delaware corporate law and pursuant to our certificate of incorporation and bylaws, the Company may indemnify its officers and directors for various expenses and damages resulting from their acting in these capacities. Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to the Company’s officers or directors pursuant to the foregoing provisions, the Company has been informed that, in the opinion of the SEC, this indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act, and is therefore unenforceable.

Item 11. Executive Compensation
 
(a) Compensation Discussion and Analysis
 
The Company currently is a shell company with nominal assets, no employees and no active business operations. The Company’s business plans are to identify an operating company with which to merge or to complete a business combination in a reverse merger transaction. As such, the Company currently has no formal compensation program for its executive officers, directors or employees.
 
The Company is not a "listed company" under SEC rules and is therefore not required to have a compensation committee. Accordingly, the Company has no compensation committee.
 
Except as set forth in the summary compensation table below, during the fiscal years ended September 30, 2007 and 2008, the Company has not provided any salary, bonus, annual or long-term equity or non-equity based incentive programs, health benefits, life insurance, tax-qualified savings plans, special employee benefits or perquisites, supplemental life insurance benefits, pension or other retirement benefits or any type of nonqualified deferred compensation programs for its executive officers or employees.
 
On September 14, 2007, the Company issued Kevin R. Keating 86,653 shares of the Company’s common stock, on a post-reverse split basis, valued at $8,665 for consulting services provided by Mr. Keating. Mr. Keating will not receive any further remuneration until the consummation of a business combination. However, please see Item 7, Certain Relationships and Related Transactions, below for a full discussion of a certain agreement between the Company and Vero Management, L.L.C., a limited liability company for which Mr. Keating is the sole member and manager. Mr. Keating intends to devote very limited time to our affairs.
 
It is possible that, after the Company successfully consummates a business combination with an unaffiliated entity, that entity may desire to employ or retain Mr. Keating for the purposes of providing services to the surviving entity. However, the Company has adopted a policy whereby the offer of any post-transaction employment or services to members of management will not be a consideration in our decision whether to undertake any proposed transaction.
 
No retirement, pension, profit sharing, stock option or insurance programs or other similar programs are currently in place for the benefit of the Company’s employees.
 
As of October 1, 2005, there were issued and outstanding options to purchase 9,828 shares of the Company’s common stock, on a post-reverse split basis, and there were 140,172 options available for issuance under the 2003 Stock Option Plan. During the fiscal year ended September 30, 2006, the options to purchase 9,828 shares of common stock under the 2003 Stock Option Plan were cancelled. On September 14, 2007, following the closing of the Preferred Stock Purchase, the 2003 Stock Option Plan was terminated by the Company’s Board of Directors, and there are no stock options outstanding as of the date of this filing.
 
There are no understandings or agreements regarding compensation our management will receive after a business combination that is required to be included in this table, or otherwise.

Item 12. Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management and Related Stockholder Matters.

The following table sets forth certain information regarding the Company’s common stock beneficially owned on December 26, 2008, for (i) each shareholder the Company knows to be the beneficial owner of 5% or more of its outstanding common stock, (ii) each of the Company’s executive officers and directors, and (iii) all executive officers and directors as a group. In general, a person is deemed to be a "beneficial owner" of a security if that person has or shares the power to vote or direct the voting of such security, or the power to dispose or to direct the disposition of such security. A person is also deemed to be a beneficial owner of any securities of which the person has the right to acquire beneficial ownership within 60 days. To the best of the Company’s knowledge, all persons named have sole voting and investment power with respect to such shares, except as otherwise noted. At December 26, 2008, 4,331,131 shares of the Company’s common stock were outstanding.
