NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JUNE 30, 2011

1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

A summary of the significant accounting policies applied in the preparation of the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements follows:

General

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Rule S-X of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and with the instructions to Form 10-Q. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements.

In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. However, the results from operations for the three months ended June 30, 2011, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending March 31, 2012. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated March 31, 2011 financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company's Form 10-K/A filed with the SEC.

The condensed consolidated financial statements as of March 31, 2011 have been derived from the audited consolidated financial statements at that date but do not include all disclosures required by the accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Business and Basis of Presentation

Global Investor Services, Inc. (the "Company") was incorporated on August 10, 2005 under the laws of the State of Nevada. On September 16, 2006, the Company changed its name to TheRetirementSolution.Com, Inc. and on October 1, 2008 to Global Investor Services, Inc. The Company currently markets directly and through its marketing partners as well as online, certain investor products and services that provide financial and educational information to its prospective customers and to its subscribers.

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries, ITT and Razor. All significant inter-company transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

Revenue Recognition

For revenue from product sales and services, the Company recognizes revenue in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification subtopic 605-10, Revenue Recognition (“ASC 605-10”) which requires that four basic criteria must be met before revenue can be recognized: (1) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; (2) delivery has occurred or services have been rendered; (3) the selling price is fixed and determinable; and (4) collectability is reasonably assured. Determination of criteria (3) and (4) are based on management's judgments regarding the fixed nature of the selling prices of the products delivered and the collectability of those amounts. Provisions for discounts and rebates to customers, estimated returns and allowances, and other adjustments are provided for in the same period the related sales are recorded. The Company defers any revenue for which the product or services has not been delivered or is subject to refund until such time that the Company and the customer jointly determine that the product has been delivered or no refund will be required.

Revenue arises from subscriptions to the websites/software, workshops, online workshops and training and coaching/counseling services where the customers are charged a monthly subscription fee  for access to the online training and courses and website/data during a given month.  As all the products and services are delivered during the month, the revenues are recognized in the month it is delivered.

Revenue Recognition (Continued)

The Company sells its products separately and in various bundles that contain multiple deliverables that include website/data subscriptions, educational workshops, online workshops and training, one-on-one coaching and counseling sessions, along with other products and services. In accordance with ASC 605-25, sales arrangements with multiple deliverables are divided into separate units of accounting if the deliverables in the arrangement meet the following criteria: (i) the product has value to the customer on a standalone basis; (ii) there is objective and reliable evidence of the fair value of undelivered items; and (iii) delivery or performances of any undelivered item is probable and substantially in our control. The fair value of each separate element is generally determined by prices charged when sold separately. In certain arrangements, we offer these products bundled together.  If there is any discount from the combined fair value of the individual elements, the discount is allocated to the portion of the revenues that is attributed to the online courses and training. As per ASC 605-25, if fair value of all undelivered elements in an arrangement exists, but fair value does not exist for a delivered element, then revenue is recognized using the residual method. Under the residual method, the fair value of undelivered elements is deferred and the remaining portion of the arrangement fee (after allocation of 100 percent of any discount to the delivered item) is recognized as revenue.  The deferral policy for each of the different types of revenues is summarized as follows:

Product
 
Recognition Policy
Live Workshops and Workshop Certificates
 
Deferred and recognized as the workshop is provided or certificate expires
     
Online training and courses
 
Deferred and recognized a.) as the services are delivered, or b.) when usage thresholds are met, or c.) on a straight-line basis over the initial product period
     
Coaching/Counseling services
 
Deferred and recognized as services are delivered, or on a straight-line basis over the life of the customer’s contract
     
Website/data fees (monthly)
 
Not Deferred, recognized in the month delivered
     
Website/data fees (pre-paid subscriptions)
 
Deferred and recognized on a straight-line basis over the subscription period
 
Cost of Sales and Service

The cost of sales and service consists of the cost of the data feeds that supply real time and stock market data to the Company’s stock analysis software based tool, external partner commissions and other costs associated with the repair or maintenance of the website.

Reclassification

Certain reclassifications have been made in prior year’s financial statements to conform to classifications used in the current year.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JUNE 30, 2011

Fair value of financial instruments

Fair value estimates discussed herein are based upon certain market assumptions and pertinent information available to management as of June 30, 2011 and 2010. The respective carrying value of certain on-balance-sheet financial instruments approximated their fair values. These financial instruments include cash and accounts payable. Fair values were assumed to approximate carrying values for cash and payables because they are short term in nature and their carrying amounts approximate fair values or they are payable on demand.

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company accounts for its stock based awards in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification subtopic 718-10, Compensation (“ASC 718-10”), which requires a fair value measurement and recognition of compensation expense for all share-based payment awards made to its employees and directors, including employee stock options and restricted stock awards. The Company estimates the fair value of stock options granted using the Black-Scholes valuation model. This model requires the Company to make estimates and assumptions including, among other things, estimates regarding the length of time an employee will retain vested stock options before exercising them, the estimated volatility of our common stock price and the number of options that will be forfeited prior to vesting. The fair value is then amortized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service periods of the awards, which is generally the vesting period. Changes in these estimates and assumptions can materially affect the determination of the fair value of stock-based compensation and consequently, the related amount recognized in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations.

For the three months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, the Company did not grant stock options to employees. The fair value of options granted in previous years vesting during the three months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 of $26,974 and $32,357, respectively was recorded as a current period charge to earnings.

Net Loss per Share

The Company has adopted Accounting Standards Codification subtopic 260-10, Earnings Per Share (“ASC 260-10”) specifying the computation, presentation and disclosure requirements of earnings per share information. Basic loss per share has been calculated based upon the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. The Company excluded 173,497,275 and 81,054,529 shares of common stock equivalents, that would be resulted from conversion of convertible debt, or exercise of stock options and warrants, from the diluted loss per share because their effect is anti-dilutive on the computation for the three months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

Reliance on Key Personnel and Consultants

The Company has only 24 full-time employees and no part-time employees.  Additionally, there are approximately 6 consultants performing various specialized services.  The Company is heavily dependent on the continued active participation of these current executive officers, employees and key consultants. The loss of any of the senior management or key consultants could significantly and negatively impact the business until adequate replacements can be identified and put in place.

Recent accounting pronouncements

There were various updates recently issued, most of which represented technical corrections to the accounting literature or application to specific industries and are not expected to a have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

2. GOING CONCERN MATTERS

The Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared using generally accepted accounting principles applicable to a going concern which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has incurred significant recurring losses which have resulted in an accumulated deficit of $69,158,575, net loss from operations of $1,428,539 and net cash used in operations of $292,783 at June 30, 2011 which raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

Continuation as a going concern is dependent upon obtaining additional capital and upon the Company’s attaining profitable operations. The Company will require a substantial amount of additional funds to complete the development of its products, to build a sales and marketing organization, and to fund additional losses which the Company expects to incur over the next few years. The management of the Company intends to seek additional funding through a Private Placement Offering which will be utilized to fund product development and continue operations. The Company recognizes that, if it is unable to raise additional capital, it may find it necessary to substantially reduce or cease operations. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of asset carrying amounts or the amount and classification of liabilities that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

3.  PREPAID EXPENSES

From time to time, the Company issues shares of its common stock for services to be performed.  The fair value of the common stock is determined at the date of the contract for services and is amortized ratably over the term of the contract.  As of June 30, 2011 and March 31, 2011, prepaid expenses were $334,924 and $512,759, respectively.  During the three months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, the Company charged an aggregate of $244,210 and $98,978, respectively, to operations.

14. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Cougar Agreement

On September 23, 2010, the Company entered into a Sales Agency Agreement (the “Sales Agreement”) with The Cougar Group, a Hong Kong corporation (“Cougar”), pursuant to which Cougar agreed, and the Company appointed, Cougar to act as the exclusive agent for the Company in South Korea and Japan (“Tier One Countries”) as well as China, Australia, Hong Kong, Singapore, Philippines, Indonesia, New Zealand and India (“Tier Two Countries”).  Cougar will act as sole exclusive agent for the Company’s products in the Tier One Countries and the Tier Two Countries.    The term of the Sales Agreement is for a period of five years.  However, the Company may terminate the Sales Agreement in the event that Cougar does not reach its sales objectives or fails to pay the Notes (as defined below) in full.  In consideration for the services under the Sales Agreement, the Company issued Cougar 120,000,000 shares of common stock (the “TCG Shares”) in consideration of the issuance of 4% promissory notes payable by Cougar to the Company in the aggregate amount of $10,000,000 (the “Notes”).  The Notes associated with the Tier One Countries, in the principal amount of $2,000,000, matured on March 31, 2011.  The Notes associated with the Tier Two Countries, in the principal amount of $8,000,000, mature on September 30, 2011.  Cougar may prepay the Notes at any time in minimum intervals of $250,000.  Further, upon achieving revenue targets as set forth in the Sales Agreement at intervals of no less than $250,000, the principal balance of the Notes shall be reduced by the amount of such sales target, resulting in compensation expense in the equal amount.

The Company, Cougar and the Law Officers of Stephen M. Fleming PLLC (the “Escrow Agent”) have entered into an Escrow Agreement pursuant to which the TCG Shares were placed in escrow with the Escrow Agent.  Upon payment of the Notes, the Company will direct the TCG Shares in the appropriate amounts.  Further, Cougar and the Company have entered into a Voting Agreement whereby Cougar has appointed Nicholas Maturo and Ryan Smith to vote the TCG Shares as they deem fit at all times while the TCG Shares are held by the Escrow Agent.  Cougar was granted the right to appoint a director to the Company’s Board of Directors.  As of June 30, 2011, Cougar has not met any sales target and no shares have been released from the escrow, therefore neither the note nor the common stock is recorded within the financial statements.

Litigation

On July 16, 2009, a petition for judgment was filed with the Civil Court of the City of New York naming the Company as a defendant relating to property leased by the Company from the defendant for recovery of past due rent payments, interest and legal costs.  In December 2010, the Company settled for $134,849 requiring monthly payments of $5,000 until paid.  As of June 30, 2011, the outstanding unpaid balance was $94,849. The Company has accrued their obligations under the lease.

The Company may be subject to legal proceedings and claims which arise in the ordinary course of its business. Although occasional adverse decisions or settlements may occur, the Company believes that the final disposition of such matters should not have a material adverse effect on its financial position, results of operations or liquidity. The Company had no pending legal proceedings or claims other than described above as of June 30, 2011.

When determining the fair value measurements for assets and liabilities required or permitted to be recorded at fair value, the Company considers the principal or most advantageous market in which it would transact and considers assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability, such as inherent risk, transfer restrictions, and risk of nonperformance. ASC 825-10 establishes a fair value hierarchy that requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. ASC 825-10 establishes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

Level 1 - Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2 - Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets with insufficient volume or infrequent transactions (less active markets); or model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs are observable or can be derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.

Level 3 - Unobservable inputs to the valuation methodology that are significant to the measurement of fair value of assets or liabilities.

To the extent that valuation is based on models or inputs that are less observable or unobservable in the market, the determination of fair value requires more judgment. In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, for disclosure purposes, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement is disclosed and is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

Upon adoption of ASC 825-10, there was no cumulative effect adjustment to beginning retained earnings and no impact on the consolidated financial statements.

Background

The Company was incorporated in the state of Nevada on August 1, 2005. On August 30, 2006, the Company entered into a Share Purchase Agreement with Voxpath Holdings, Inc. (“Voxpath”). Prior to the merger, Voxpath was an inactive corporation with no significant assets and liabilities.  On September 16, 2006, the Company changed its name to TheRetirementSolution.Com, Inc.  Effective October 1, 2008, the Company changed its name to Global Investor Services, Inc.

The Company currently markets directly and through its marketing partners as well as online, certain investor products and services that provide financial and educational information to its prospective customers and to its subscribers. During the year ended March 31, 2008, the Company transitioned from a development stage enterprise to an operating company.

 
Plan of Operations

The Company is executing its marketing strategy through direct-to-market campaigns with its marketing partners and through the internet where it delivers investor products and services. The Company’s target market is comprised of a large base of entry level investors, active investors in the on-line brokerage sector and higher-end users of financial information, services and financial news.

The Company’s marketing strategy is designed to grow the business through the delivery of superior education and investor services at the lowest possible cost. These goals will be achieved through on-line customer acquisition, product sales and customer service, and on-line education and services delivery.

Our partners have the marketing and operations capability to attract customers by way of low cost introductory courses and products which then allows for upsell opportunities to a complete on-line education curriculum and expanded investor services. Customer service is supported by a comprehensive client management system that tracks the customer throughout the purchase, education and added services cycle which also includes live data feeds, news and investment letters.

On-line education delivery is completed starting with early stage courses through a complete curriculum of learning modules, podcasts, webinars and webisodes. In addition, our customer management system follows every student at this level in the form of surveys, competency assessments, learning assignments, hotline, coaching and mentoring.

The Company has a number of different delivery formats that is focused on a structured investing methodology that focuses on searching for an investment, industry group analysis, fundamental analysis, technical analysis, and portfolio management. The objective is to provide a complete investor education experience for both beginning and experienced investors and to help them better understand the investment decision process.

The Company’s longer term goals include the expansion to other markets beyond the United States. The comprehensive investor education curriculum and related investor services will be marketed and delivered on-line in target markets principally via joint venture arrangements in other countries.

Revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2011 was $533,162 which represented a $200,268 increase from revenue of $332,894 for the three months ended June 30, 2010.  The increase in revenue was due to the initiation of  online marketing campaigns.

Our revenue model has been transformed from a single point-of-sale event to a recurring revenue stream via subscriptions. By eliminating both the high cost event based marketing model and the high logistics costs of supporting live events, our operating margins are expected to be higher.  This on-line offering reduces the up-front customer cost, produces higher buyer conversion rates, increases retention rates and further increases customer value since we give immediate full access to all our products and services.

As we have completed the conversion to full online capability, the Company began funding increased marketing expense to execute our online customer campaigns and we continue to see positive consumer response The campaigns are continuing along with new online webinar initiatives and we look forward to building on what we believe is a robust online business system.

Cost of sales and services for the three month period ended June 30, 2011 was $203,231 as compared to $177,765 for the same period last year.  The primary reason for this increase was the increase in revenue for the period.

Our selling, general and administrative expenses for the three month period ended June 30, 2011 was $1,705,753 as compared to $1,324,151 for the three months ended June 30, 2010.  The primary reason for this increase is a result of our heavy investment in marketing costs of the online business model plus added stock based compensation paid to employees and consultants.

During the third quarter of 2009, we issued convertible promissory notes and related warrants that contain certain reset provisions and during the three month period ended September 30, 2010, we issued a convertible promissory note with an embedded derivative, all requiring us to fair value both the warrants and the derivatives each reporting period and mark to market as a non cash adjustment to our current period operations.  This resulted in a gain to our current period operations of $28,190 as compared to a net loss of $1,544,679 for the same period last year.

During the three months ended June 30, 2011, the Company entered into agreements with certain of its convertible noteholders to induce conversion of notes.  Total loss in connection with the induced conversion or debt and warrants settlement amounted to $579,801 for the three months ended June 30, 2011.

Our net interest and other charges decreased from $1,095,059 to $420,077 during the three months ended June 30, 2011 primarily due to reductions in our debt compared to the prior period.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of June 30, 2011, the Company had a working capital deficit (total current liabilities in excess of total current assets) of $2,494,331. The Company generated a deficit in cash flow from operating activities of $292,783 for the three month period June 30, 2011. This deficit is primarily attributable to the Company's net loss from operations of $2,400,227 and is partially offset by the following:

 
·
a charge for the value of options issued for services of $26,974,
 
·
amortization and write-off of debt discount relating to convertible notes payable $313,695,
 
·
stock issued and subscribed for services of $687,827,
 
·
amortization and depreciation expense of $397,367,
 
·
change in fair value of warrant and derivative liabilities of $(28,190),
 
·
Accretion of interest related to marketing advances of $90,000,
 
·
loss on settlement of debt and warrants of $579,801 and
 
·
changes in the balances of operating assets and liabilities.

Deferred costs and other current assets decreased by $15,911. Accounts payable and accrued liabilities increased by $100,200, and deferred revenue decreased by $76,141.

The Company did not have any cash flow from investing activities for the three months ended June 30, 2011.

 
30

 

The Company generated a cash flow from financing activities for the three month period ended June 30, 2011 through proceeds from borrowing on convertible promissory notes of $1,425,000 and advances from related party of $50,000 net with repayment of notes payable of $159,730 and re-purchase of the Company's common stock of $6,781.

While we have raised capital to meet our working capital and financing needs in the past, additional financing is required in order to meet our current and projected cash flow deficits from operations and development. We are seeking financing, which may take the form of debt, convertible debt or equity, in order to provide the necessary working capital. There can be no assurance that future financings will be available to us on acceptable terms. If financing is not available to us on acceptable terms, we may be unable to continue our operations.

We estimate that during the next twelve months we will need approximately $1,000,000 in additional capital to fully implement our business plan. Our business plan encompasses investing in our business development strategy, our marketing campaigns and in building our business operations. As of the date of this filing, we have minimal operating capital to continue our business and marketing initiatives for the next twelve months. If we are not successful in generating sufficient cash flow from operations or in raising sufficient capital resources to finance our growth, on terms acceptable to us, this could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, liquidity and financial condition, we will have to adjust our planned operations and development on a more limited scale and, ultimately, may cease to continue our business.

Going Concern Matters

The Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared using generally accepted accounting principles applicable to a going concern which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has incurred significant losses which have resulted in an accumulated deficit of $69,158,575, a working capital deficit (total current liabilities in excess of total current assets) of $2,494,331 and a deficit in cash flow from operating activities of $292,783 for the three month period June 30, 2011 which raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

Continuation as a going concern is dependent upon obtaining additional capital and upon the Company’s attaining profitable operations. The Company will require a substantial amount of additional funds to complete the development of its products, to build a sales and marketing organization, and to fund additional losses which the Company expects to incur over the next few years. The management of the Company intends to seek additional funding through a Private Placement Offering which will be utilized to fund product development and continue operations. The Company recognizes that, if it is unable to raise additional capital, it may find it necessary to substantially reduce or cease operations. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of asset carrying amounts or the amount and classification of liabilities that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Critical Accounting Policies

The preparation of our financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect our reported assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses, and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. We base our estimates and judgments on historical experience and on various other assumptions we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Future events, however, may differ markedly from our current expectations and assumptions. While there are a number of significant accounting policies affecting our consolidated financial statements; we believe the following critical accounting policy involves the most complex, difficult and subjective estimates and judgments.

Revenue Recognition

For revenue from product sales and services, the Company recognizes revenue in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification subtopic 605-10, Revenue Recognition (“ASC 605-10”) which requires that four basic criteria must be met before revenue can be recognized: (1) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; (2) delivery has occurred or services have been rendered; (3) the selling price is fixed and determinable; and (4) collectability is reasonably assured. Determination of criteria (3) and (4) are based on management's judgments regarding the fixed nature of the selling prices of the products delivered and the collectability of those amounts. Provisions for discounts and rebates to customers, estimated returns and allowances, and other adjustments are provided for in the same period the related sales are recorded. The Company defers any revenue for which the product has not been delivered or is subject to refund until such time that the Company and the customer jointly determine that the product has been delivered or no refund will be required.

Revenue arises from subscriptions to the websites/software, workshops, online workshops and training and coaching/counseling services where the customers are charged  a monthly subscription fee  for access to the online training and courses and website/data during a given month.  As all the products and services are delivered during the month, the revenues are recognized in the month it is delivered.

We sell our products separately and in various bundles that contain multiple deliverables that include website/data subscriptions, educational workshops, online workshops and training, one-on-one coaching and counseling sessions, along with other products and services. In accordance with 605-25, sales arrangements with multiple deliverables are divided into separate units of accounting if the deliverables in the arrangement meet the following criteria: (i) the product has value to the customer on a standalone basis; (ii) there is objective and reliable evidence of the fair value of undelivered items; and (iii) delivery or performances of any undelivered item is probable and substantially in our control. The fair value of each separate element is generally determined by prices charged when sold separately. In certain arrangements, we offer these products bundled together.  If there is any discount from the combined fair value of the individual elements, the discount is allocated to the portion of the revenues that is attributed to the online courses and training. As per 605-25, if fair value of all undelivered elements in an arrangement exists, but fair value does not exist for a delivered element, then revenue is recognized using the residual method. Under the residual method, the fair value of undelivered elements is deferred and the remaining portion of the arrangement fee (after allocation of 100 percent of any discount to the delivered item) is recognized as revenue.  The deferral policy for each of the different types of revenues is summarized as follows:

Product
  
Recognition Policy
     
Live Workshops and Workshop Certificates
 
Deferred and recognized as the workshop is provided or certificate expires
     
Online training and courses
 
Deferred and recognized a.) as the services are delivered, or b.) when usage thresholds are met, or c.) on a straight-line basis over the initial product period
     
Coaching/Counseling services
 
Deferred and recognized as services are delivered, or on a straight-line basis over the term of the service contract
     
Website/data fees (monthly)
 
Not Deferred, recognized in the month delivered
 
Website/data fees (pre-paid subscriptions)
 
Deferred and recognized on a straight-line basis over the subscription period

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company has adopted Accounting Standards Codification subtopic 718-10, Compensation-Stock Compensation (“ASC 718-10”) which requires the measurement and recognition of compensation expense for all share-based payment awards made to employees, directors and key consultants including employee stock options and employee stock purchases related to an Employee Stock Purchase Plan based on the estimated fair values.

The company adopted ASC 718-10 using the modified prospective transition method, which required the application of the accounting standard as of January 1, 2006. In accordance with the modified prospective transition method, the company's Financial Statements for the prior periods have not been restated to reflect, and do not include the impact of ASC 718-10.

The Company charged $26,974 and $32,357 to current period operations for the three months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively, for vesting options previously granted.

Segment Information

The information disclosed herein materially represents all of the financial information related to the Company’s one principal operating segment.

Derivative Instruments and Fair Value of Financial Instruments

We have evaluated the application of Accounting Standards Codification 815-40, Derivatives and Hedging, Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (“ASC 815-40”) to certain freestanding warrants and convertible promissory notes that contain exercise price adjustment features known as reset provisions.  Based on the guidance in ASC 815-40, we have concluded these instruments are required to be accounted for as derivatives effective upon issuance.

We have recorded the fair value of the warrants and reset provisions of the convertible promissory notes and classified as derivative liabilities in our balance sheet at fair value with changes in the value of these derivatives reflected in the consolidated statements of operations as gain or loss on derivative liabilities.  These derivative instruments are not designated as hedging instruments under ASC 815-10.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

There were various updates recently issued, most of which represented technical corrections to the accounting literature or application to specific industries and are not expected to a have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

The Company does not have any off balance sheet arrangements that are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, revenues, results of operations, liquidity or capital expenditures.

ITEM 3 - QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

We are a smaller reporting company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and, as such, are not required to provide the information under this item.

ITEM 4 – CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Disclosure Control and Procedures

We maintain “disclosure controls and procedures,” as such term in defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act (15 U.S.C. 78a, et seq.) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Commission’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding the required disclosures.

Management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, do not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal controls over financial reporting will prevent all error and all fraud.  A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurances that the objectives of the control system are met.  Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs.  Due to the inherent limitations in all control systems, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements, and further, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurances that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the registrant have been detected.  Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act.  Our internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.  We carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation and because of the Company’s limited resources and limited number of employees, management concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were ineffective as of June 30, 2011 as a result of the reasons set forth below.

Management has identified control deficiencies regarding the lack of segregation of duties and the need for a stronger internal control environment. Management of the Company believes that these material weaknesses are due to the small size of the Company’s accounting staff and reliance on outside consultants for external reporting.  The small size of the Company’s accounting staff may prevent adequate controls in the future, such as segregation of duties, due to the cost/benefit of such remediation.

To mitigate the current limited resources and limited employees, we rely heavily on direct management oversight of transactions, along with the use of legal and accounting professionals. As we grow, we expect to increase our number of employees, which will enable us to implement adequate segregation of duties within the internal control framework.

These control deficiencies could result in a misstatement of account balances that would result in a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement to our consolidated financial statements may not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. Accordingly, we have determined that these control deficiencies as described above together constitute a material weakness.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There have been no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation required by paragraph (d) of Rule 13a-15 or 15d-15 under the Exchange Act that occurred during the quarter ended June 30, 2011 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
