ITEM 1. Business.

Background

Alternative Fuels Americas, Inc. (“AFAI”, “”we”, “us”, “our” or the “Company”) is a development stage company. The Company was incorporated in 1993 and has engaged in a number of businesses. Its name was changed on May 11, 2007 to NetSpace International Holdings, Inc. (a Delaware corporation) (“NetSpace”). NetSpace acquired all the capital stock of Alternative Fuels Americas, Inc. (a Florida corporation) in January 2010 and filed a Certificate of Amendment to the Certificate of Incorporation on October 13, 2010 changing the Company’s name from NetSpace International Holdings, Inc. to Alternative Fuels Americas, Inc. (a Delaware corporation).

Our executive offices are located at 2131 Hollywood Boulevard, Suite 401, Hollywood, Florida 33020 and our telephone number is 954/534-7895. Our website is www.alternativefuelsamericas.com. Information contained on our website does not constitute part of this Annual Report.

General

AFAI has been constructing a viable and sustainable “seed-to-pump” biofuels company in Latin America. Since 2005 the Company has engaged in plant trials, research and development and biofuels strategy development. With plantings of more than 40,000 Jatropha trees, nonedible so as not to compete with the food sector and having the ability to grow abundantly on marginal lands, and a comprehensive growth plan in place, we are among the few companies with both the vision and the knowledge for execution.

AFAI has developed distinctive strategic approaches that mitigate or resolve the operational challenges and financial risks that have come to be associated with large scale biodiesel enterprises. AFAI achieved these breakthroughs by applying innovative operational tactics. Moreover, by approaching biodiesel as an oil concern - and not solely as an agricultural exercise - AFAI has been able to establish vertical operational processes that enable efficiencies, lower costs, and provide operational stability. The AFAI team has been involved in the planting of Jatropha in Costa Rica and Mexico, and management has been involved in Jatropha pilot projects in Honduras, Guatemala, Mexico and Costa Rica. Today AFAI has the management team, agronomy and tree science, tree base (propagation materials), chemistry, engineering, farm management, production process, economic models, strategic models, and expert biofuels know-how necessary to establish and sustain a world class green oil company.

The Company’s business plan has 3 stages that result in AFAI and its operating entities having (1) early-stage revenues (120 days post funding), (2) ownership of feedstock supplies that include emerging oil-rich opportunities and (3) an integrated R&D program to provide proprietary intellectual property and improve operating margins for biodiesel manufacture. The three phases are:

To advance our implementation capabilities, AFAI has focused on the four critical components of biodiesel production: (1) ensuring reliable feedstock supply - through both wild feedstock and planting programs, (2) securing sources of independent crude biofuel extraction capability, (3) securing independent refining sources through identification of existing excess industry capacity while planning to develop Company-owned facilities, and (4) establishing sales and marketing directed at Costa Rican customers through off-take agreements. The Company believes that it has developed the capacity to either directly or through strategic relationships, to:

Market Overview

According to business intelligence provider, IntertechPira, the total value of clean technologies globally is expected to rise by over 250% to $525 billion in 2019. This represents average annual growth of 13.5% for the ten-year period from 2009. By 2019 the global biofuels market is expected to more than triple from estimated 2009 bases of 15 billion gallons of ethanol and 3 billion gallons of biodiesel production.

Investment in biofuels, while slightly down due to the economic climate, is still reasonably robust. In 2009 venture capital funds invested $680.2 million into biofuels companies. In addition, leading oil companies, including BP, Shell, Exxon Mobil, Chevron and Petrobras (Brazil), have all begun investing in biofuels.

Implementation

In our planting and farming program, the Company has to date:

As a result, AFAI believes that it now possesses sufficient agronomy, biology, plant science, farm management and crop development skills needed to execute its farming program. We estimate that it will take between four to seven years to fully implement our planting program with a total of up to 100,000 hectares of land.

Wild Feedstock

The Company's business plan calls for the use of wild feedstock initially, primarily Jatropha, Palm Real and Coyol to accelerate time-to-revenue. The Coyol and Palm Real trees grow wild across Costa Rica and have fruit rich in oil. Jatropha has been planted as a "living fence" in all the Company’s targeted countries and has a seed that has substantial oil content. Both plants have oil that is simple to transesterify into biodiesel.

AFAI will be purchasing wild feedstock from landowners and "gatherers" who collect wild Jatropha and Coyol. The Company has scouted the central, northern, and southern regions of Costa Rica and has determined that there is an abundant supply of feedstock. Discussions with local landowners have indicated a broad interest in working with us as we will provide a new stream of revenue to the landowners and gatherers.

Once the Company has collected or received delivery of the wild feedstock, it will be transported to a crushing/refining facility, processed, transesterified into diesel and sold. The Company estimates that there is sufficient wild feedstock to produce up to 2 million gallons of diesel annually, which would result in annual revenues of $8,000,000 with a gross margin of 54%.

Planting

AFAI will initiate planting of Jatropha fields to yield oil-rich crops that will establish "above ground oil fields". The Company has developed a number of farm models, some of which include multi-feedstock plantations. The first 5,000 hectares planted by AFAI will be plantations featuring 2,500 trees per hectare, with anticipated yields (at plant maturity) of approximately 800 gallons per hectare for an additional 4 million gallons of diesel annually, producing revenues of $14,700,000 with a gross profit of 42%.

Processing

By imposing efficiencies on every phase of the biofuels cycle, AFAI will be able to process feedstock, whether wild or planted, at low cost. The Company has established six operational units to support a vertical strategy of seed-to-pump. They are:

Execution

AFAI‘s seed-to-pump business model is designed to enable control over all components of the value chain. Execution will occur through the use of Special Purpose Vehicles/Entities (“SPV”), providing vertical integration for greater operational oversight, reduction of operational and cost redundancies, and control over the quality of the end product. Moreover, the Company has established a 3-phase plan that serves to mitigate or resolve the operational challenges and financial risks that have come to be associated with large scale biodiesel enterprises by providing for early generation of revenue, control over a stable supply of feedstock and a strong technology backbone.

The Company has identified thirteen strategic elements that form the cornerstone of AFAI's operational philosophies for each SPV. Many of these strategic concepts were developed to provide the Company with viable responses to the challenges inherent to the biodiesel sector, while others are statements of the Company's goals and business principles. The 13 guiding strategies for AFAI SPV – Costa Rica are:

1. Stage development - AFAI has established three stages of development to permit the Company to accelerate its path to revenues (using wild feedstock), establish a stable supply of feedstock (through planting its own fields), and remain on the cutting edge of feedstock development technology (algae).

2. Do-good do-well - AFAI is a do-good do-well company. We will implement, whenever business practices permit, work processes that allow for maximum social and economic benefit to our employees and the residents of the communities within which we operate. We are dedicated to bringing tangible benefits to the people who join us and will allocate resources for training, healthcare and education, as well as offer special programs for savings and childcare. These programs allow the Company to establish close ties to its employees and establish its operations as a critical element in the local economy. This not only provides a greater good to the community but also serves to create loyalty and stability for the Company.

The development of biodiesel oil fields in developing areas can lead to social benefits that go beyond and build upon the economic benefits to create meaningful and lasting improvements in the lives of local residents. These include:

3. Feedstock and process control – the Company views its vertically integrated seed-to-pump approach as critical to its success because it enables AFAI to control costs and ensure feedstock supply.

4. Position equipment in-field – wherever possible, the Company plans to integrate its oilseed crushing operations in-field so as to reduce the costs associated with transporting bulky raw feedstock.

5. Geographic diversity - AFAI will plant in different regions in each target country to minimize the risks from adverse weather patterns, acts of God, and other risks to the well-being of the crops or the enterprise.

6. Rural development – a primary motivator for most Latin American countries in supporting the establishment of a domestic biodiesel industry is the anticipated creation of new agricultural and industrial infrastructures in their rural areas. AFAI will act to serve as a model for a completely integrated rural-based biodiesel enterprise.

7. Sector consolidation – AFAI recognizes the leadership role it needs to play in demonstrating a viable biodiesel business model, as well as lead the sector (in target countries) toward consolidation.

8. Self-sustaining profitable units – AFAI treats each 1,000 – 5,000 hectare unit as standalone. By doing so, we are able to remove many of the risks typically associated with massive agricultural operations.

9. Sell domestically – AFAI will focus its efforts on meeting the domestic oil demand, which can be achieved at a significantly lower cost than exporting the oil.

10. Strategic partnerships - AFAI will establish strategic partnerships in each country in order to secure proper liaison to government, access to workforce, access to land and other local-in-nature knowledge elements essential for success.

11. Acquisitions – Our management believes that many companies (or their assets) are available for partnership or acquisition (for stock). The goal is to establish a regional enterprise and create the value generally assigned to a successful regional operation.

12. Revenue model – the Company’s profits will be generated from the sale of biodiesel fuel which will be produced at a cost lower than the price for which it will be sold. Additionally, the Company will have revenues from the sale of multiple by-products.

13. Growth model and value creation – the Company plans to continue growth through the leasing or acquisition of land on which it can plant/propagate feedstock and establish “above ground” oilfields, as well as the continued pursuit of patentable technologies through which the Company can gain dominance in one or more processes central to the production of biodiesel from plant crops and/or algae.

Marketing and Sales

On March 17, 2009 the government of Costa Rica passed Decree 35091-MAG-MINAET which established a “Plan Nacional de Desarrollo” (National Development Plan) for a national biofuels industry. To this end, the government declared an up-to-20% mandatory biodiesel blending requirement. This mandate establishes the AFAI market.

Our marketing program is designed to raise awareness of the Company and its activities and create interest in the Company and the biodiesel it sells. The marketing plan will utilize targeted advertising and direct mail, email marketing, and the sponsorship of events. The Company will quickly establish its reputation as a leader in the Latin American biodiesel sector by demonstrating expertise at industry conferences and playing a supportive role to other biofuel ventures in the region.

AFAI will be selling to a number of markets, in many cases with sales driven by regulation-mandated blending requirements or end-user environmental considerations. Among the markets to which the Company will be selling diesel fuel are:

Ultimately, AFAI plans to establish an in-house marketing and sales force

The Company will target specific buying groups and work with them to create long term, volume purchasing agreements that will ensure a steady market and a healthy profit. The Company has obtained offtake agreements for 3,761,000 gallons of biofuels from two transport companies, one Costa Rican municipality and one industrial enterprise.

Environmental Impact and Business Practices

AFAI plans to adhere, throughout the lifecycle (seed, harvest, processing, waste management) to responsible and economically sustainable business practices. In this context, sensitive issues such as protection of the ecosystem including water utilization and management (depletion and pollution), land preparation and preservation (nutrient depletion), biodiversity, crop replacement, and other related concerns, will be approached in accordance with guidelines designed to best protect the environment.

AFAI anticipates its lease sites will focus on lands that have either been identified as degraded agricultural lands with scarce localized vegetation, or have been used for short term crops. Thus, at no point does AFAI intend to engage in the replacement and conversion of forests, wetlands, woodlands, or any other ecosystem that would result in producing greenhouse gas emissions (GHG) that are greater than (exceed) the savings (emissions reductions) generated by planting the proposed feedstock. Accordingly, the Company does not anticipate incurring any material environmental compliance costs.

AFAI intends to engage all stakeholders in the biofuel value chain so as to be certain to maintain respectful and mutually beneficial operational relationships. The stakeholders with which the Company will maintain positive dialogue include:

Government Regulation

The planting, farming and harvesting of feedstock, the extraction of crude biofuel from plant matter and the refining of crude biofuel into biodiesel is not directly subject to government regulation.

In Costa Rica, the price of biodiesel is set by the government and, accordingly, the Company’s operations may be adversely impacted by a reduction of such price. In addition, the demand for biodiesel may be affected by various government initiatives to either encourage or discourage biodiesel production.

Competition

The market for biofuels is emerging but is expected to be highly competitive. In Costa Rica, as the price of biodiesel is set by the government, competition is mostly focused on customer service and being able to efficiently meet customer demand for supply on an ongoing basis. The Company will likely face significant competition from other biofuel companies, as well as from more traditional energy and fuel companies which may enter the biofuels market. Many of these competitors and potential competitors will have far greater experience, more extensive industry contacts and greater financial resources than the Company.

Employees

As of the date of this Annual Report, the Company has six employees and contract personnel. Additional employees will be hired in the future as our business expands. We anticipate employing approximately 30 persons by the time we commercially launch our planned biofuels business.

ITEM 1A. Risk Factors

Our shares of common stock are highly speculative in nature, involve a high degree of risk and should be purchased only by persons who can afford to lose the entire amount invested in the common stock. Before purchasing any of the shares of common stock, you should carefully consider the following factors relating to our business and prospects. If any of the following risks actually occurs, our business, financial condition or operating results could be materially adversely affected. In such case, you may lose all or part of your investment. You should carefully consider the risks described below and the other information in this process before investing in our common stock.

We have a limited operating history with our current business.

The Company was incorporated in 1993 and has engaged in a number of businesses as both a private and as a publicly held company, including the online sale of specialty foods, online marketing and website development.

The business of AFAI, which the Company acquired in January 2010 and on which the Company plans to focus its efforts, is in the development stage and has generated no revenues to date. It is subject to all the problems, expenses, difficulties, complications and delays encountered in establishing a new business, including the planting, harvesting and processing of high yield oil crops and the rating of biodiesel fuel. The Company does not know if it will become commercially viable and ever generate significant revenues or operate at a profit.

The Company will require additional financing to become commercially viable.

Since January 2010 the Company has raised approximately $1,964,000 through a series of private placements of debt and equity offerings and will require significant additional financing to commercially launch its planned biofuels business. The Company has a plan of operations to generate additional funds, including:

The Company incurred net losses of $1,361,285 and $523,658 for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2012, respectively. At December 31, 2012, we had a total stockholders’ deficit of $924,730, a working capital deficiency of $1,033,967, no cash and are totally dependent on our ability to raise capital. While we are seeking to raise additional financing either through government grants and incentives or additional private securities offerings, we have no commitments or firm plans to raise the additional financing, and there can be no assurance that necessary additional financing will be available to the Company, on favorable terms or otherwise. Any such additional financing may dilute the interests of existing stockholders, and its absence has delayed implementation of the Company’s business plan.

The marketing and market acceptance of biodiesel fuels may not be as rapid as AFAI expects.

The market for biodiesel fuel is rapidly evolving, and activity in the sector is expanding rapidly. Demand and market acceptance for biodiesel fuel are subject to uncertainty and risk, as changes in the price of fossil diesel fuel and possible adverse reactions by the major oil companies could influence and denigrate demand. AFAI cannot predict whether, or how fast, this market will grow or how long it can be sustained. If the market for biodiesel fuel develops more slowly than expected or becomes saturated with competitors, AFAI’s operating results could be adversely impacted.

There is no assurance that our business will be profitable or that it will succeed.

The Company has constructed what it believes to be a sound and well-conceived business model, but it cannot, with certainly, project the success of its implementation. Prospective investors should consider the risks, expenses and uncertainties that an early stage corporation like AFAI will need to overcome. These risks include the Company’s ability or inability to: (i) execute all aspects of its seed-to-pump operations; (ii) achieve commercial acceptance of the biodiesel fuel it expects to sell; (iii) expand the existing businesses beyond the current pilot project and into neighboring Latin American countries; (iv) achieve financing as set forth above to fund the next stages of the plan of operation; and (v) respond effectively to competitive pressures. If the Company is unsuccessful in these addressed risks, the business, financial condition and results of operations will be adversely affected, and the business may fail.

AFAI must effectively meet the challenges of managing expanding operations.

The Company’s business plan anticipates that operations will undergo significant expansion. This expansion will require the Company to establish operations in Latin America and manage a larger and more complex organization, including construction and operation of a refining facility when our capacity exceeds 500,000 gallons per year. This growth could place a significant strain on our managerial, operational and financial resources. To accommodate this growth, AFAI must successfully expand the agricultural, technical and human resource practices established and verified as effective. Management may not succeed with these efforts. Failure to expand in an efficient manner could cause expenses to be greater than anticipated, revenues to grow more slowly than expected and could otherwise have an adverse effect on the business, financial condition and results of operations.

The Company’s strategic relationships are new to AFAI. 

AFAI has established relationships with local consultants in the biofuels industry that are expected to significantly contribute to the Company’s depth of knowledge in agronomy and farm management practices and facilitate its introduction to landowners, processing and refining facilities and feedstock development companies. The Company is subject to certain risks associated with these new business relationships, including, among others, risks relating to business relations, managerial efficiency and effectiveness with Company business and operations.

AFAI is part of an emerging industry.

The Company is engaging in an aggressive plan of growth in an emerging industry that has yet to fully define competitive, operational, financial and other parameters for successful operations. While the biofuels industry is now global, few companies have reached large scale seed-to-pump production capacity and there are certainly errors being made as the quest for growth is pursued. Additionally, new technologies and agricultural techniques, as well as new crops, may be introduced after the Company has substantially committed to less advantageous legacy processes and feedstock sources, leaving the Company to choose between the cost of upgrading and the continued use of obsolete processes and feedstock. By aggressively pursuing growth prior to other companies demonstrating where the pressure points of the industry lay, the Company may make errors, restricting some or all of its ability to perform in accordance with its expectations.

AFAI must secure sources of feedstock and the ability to process feedstock into biodiesel.

In order to achieve any level of success, AFAI will be required to secure a commercially reasonable level of feedstock to process into biodiesel as well as the capacity to crush plant matter into crude biofuel and then refine it into commercial grade biodiesel. We have signed agreements with approximately 150 independent farmers, which will be effective upon registration with the applicable government authority. We have also identified facilities which will enable us to lease sufficient crushing and refining capacity to commence commercial operations but have not entered into any agreements with these facilities. Moreover, if and when our operations expand, we will need to secure additional crushing and refining capacity. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that the Company can achieve these goals on commercially reasonable terms, in which case its business may be substantially harmed. 

We have not undertaken any significant marketing efforts, and we have only limited marketing experience in the biodiesel fuel arena. 

We have signed offtake agreements for 3,700,000 gallons annually. However, we are in the development stage, and we have only limited marketing experience in the biodiesel fuel arena. Accordingly, there is no assurance that any marketing strategy we develop can be successfully implemented or if implemented that it will result in significant sales of our planned biodiesel fuel products. 

AFAI will be subject to the risks involved in operating in Latin America.

The Company anticipates operating throughout Latin America. Prior to entering a country, the Company will be tracking United States State Department advisories and news and analyst sources to determine if an unacceptable level of risk is evolving. Nonetheless, the region has had periods of political unrest and instability, and there is no assurance that the countries within which the Company sets up farms and operations will remain stable for the entire duration of the AFAI presence. Any changes in the political environment could result in losses to the Company.

Our business will be affected by changes in governmental regulation.

The biofuels industry is regulated by government policy, primarily as regards mandated usages, product production and product standards. There can be no assurance that we can comply with all applicable regulations. Countries in which we operate may elect not to enforce the regulations or may change the regulations in ways that adversely affect our business. 

We will be subject to the risks of foreign legal systems. 

AFAI plans to be involved in the leasing or acquisition of land, the creation of joint ventures, the production of fuel (a regulated activity), and operations in a number of different legal jurisdictions. The laws regulating these activities, the legal precautions required to protect the Company and its investors, and the compliance with local regulations will need to be conducted in conjunction with local attorneys. While the Company plans to ascertain the competency of its legal advisors in each country of operation, it can make no guarantee that the legal advice given will be accurate. Nor, can it be certain that the legal procedures followed by the Company on advice of legal counsel will indicate the best course of action.

Our business will be affected by factors influencing the market for fuel products.

Price risk reflects the variability in supply and demand, as driven by geopolitics, business cycles and other factors. The price of fossil diesel fuel strongly affects the price that can be claimed for biofuel. A sharp decline in fossil diesel fuel prices would result in a mandatory drop in biofuel prices, regardless of the fixed production costs associated with the agricultural, crushing and tranesterification components of the business.

The Company will be subject to other operating risks which may adversely affect the Company’s financial condition.

Our planned operations will be subject to risks normally incidental to manufacturing operations which may result in work stoppages and/or damage to property. This may be caused by: 

The Company will likely face significant competition.

The markets for biofuels are energy generation and transportation, which are highly competitive. The Company will likely face significant competition from other biofuel companies as well as from more traditional energy and fuel companies that may enter the biofuel market. Some of these competitors or potential competitors have greater experience, more extensive industry contacts and greater financial resources than the Company. There can be no assurance that the Company can effectively compete.

We currently rely on certain key individuals, and the loss of one of these key individuals could have an adverse effect on the Company.

Our success depends to a certain degree upon certain key members of our management. These individuals are a significant factor in our growth and success. The loss of the services of such members of management and our advisory board could have a material adverse effect on our Company. In particular, the success of our Company is highly dependent upon the efforts of our CEO and COO who have gained significant knowledge of and established important relationships in the Costa Rican biofuels market, and the loss of their services would have a material adverse effect on the success and development of our Company. Additionally, we do not anticipate having key man insurance in place to cover our directors and executive officers in the foreseeable future.

The Company’s success will be dependent in part upon its ability to attract qualified personnel and consultants.

The Company’s success will be dependent in part upon its ability to attract qualified creative marketing, sales and product development teams. The inability to do so on favorable terms may harm the Company’s proposed business.

Our internal controls may be inadequate, which could cause our financial reporting to be unreliable and lead to misinformation being disseminated to the public.

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. As defined in Securities Exchange Act of 1934 Rule 13a-15(f), internal control over financial reporting is a process designed by, or under the supervision of, the principal executive and principal financial officer and effected by the board of directors, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and includes those policies and procedures that:

We do not have a sufficient number of employees to segregate responsibilities and may be unable to afford increasing our staff or engaging outside consultants or professionals to overcome our lack of employees. During the course of our testing, we may identify other deficiencies that we may not be able to timely remediate. In addition, if we fail to achieve and maintain the adequacy of our internal controls, as such standards are modified, supplemented or amended from time to time, we may not be able to ensure that we can conclude on an ongoing basis that we have effective internal controls over financial reporting in accordance with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. Moreover, effective internal controls, particularly those related to revenue recognition, are necessary for us to produce reliable financial reports and are important to help prevent financial fraud. If we cannot provide reliable financial reports or prevent fraud, our business and operating results could be harmed, investors could lose confidence in our reported financial information, and the trading price of our common stock, if a market ever develops, could drop significantly.

The costs of being a public company could result in us being unable to continue as a going concern.

As a public company, we are required to comply with numerous financial reporting and legal requirements, including those pertaining to audits and internal control. The costs of this compliance could be significant. If our revenues do not increase and/or we cannot satisfy many of these costs through the issuance of our shares, we may be unable to satisfy these costs in the normal course of business which would result in our being unable to continue as a going concern.

Our Certificate of Incorporation and By Laws provide for indemnification of officers and directors at our expense and limit their liability that may result in a major cost to us and hurt the interests of our shareholders because corporate resources may be expended for the benefit of officers and/or directors.

Our Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws provide for the indemnification of our officers and directors. We have been advised that, in the opinion of the SEC, indemnification for liabilities arising under federal securities laws is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and is, therefore, unenforceable.

The market for our common stock is extremely limited and sporadic.

Our common stock is quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board® (OTCBB). The market for our common stock is extremely limited and sporadic. (The last trade for our common stock was on April 17, 2013 at $0.30 per share.) Trading in stock quoted on the OTCBB is often thin and characterized by wide fluctuations in trading prices, due to many factors that may have little to do with our operations or business prospects. This volatility could depress the market price of our common stock for reasons unrelated to operating performance. Moreover, the OTCBB is not a stock exchange, and trading of securities in the OTCBB is often more sporadic than the trading of securities listed on a quotation system like NASDAQ, or a stock exchange like NYSE/AMEX. Accordingly, stockholders may have difficulty reselling any of their shares.

Our common stock is a penny stock. Trading of our common stock may be restricted by the SEC’s penny stock regulations and FINRA’s sales practice requirements, which may limit a stockholder’s ability to buy and sell our common stock.

Our stock is a penny stock. The SEC has adopted Rule 15g-9 which generally defines “penny stock” to be any equity security that has a market price (as defined) less than $5.00 per share or an exercise price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions. Our securities are covered by the penny stock rules, which impose additional sales practice requirements on broker-dealers who sell to persons other than established customers and accredited investors. The term “accredited investor” refers generally to institutions with assets in excess of $5,000,000 or individuals with a net worth in excess of $1,000,000 or annual income exceeding $200,000 or $300,000 jointly with their spouse. The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from the rules, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document in a form prepared by the SEC which provides information about penny stocks and the nature and level of risks in the penny stock market. The broker-dealer also must provide the customer with current bid and offer quotations for the penny stock, the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson in the transaction and monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer’s account. The bid and offer quotations, and the broker-dealer and salesperson compensation information, must be given to the customer orally or in writing prior to effecting the transaction and must be given to the customer in writing before or with the customer’s confirmation. In addition, the penny stock rules require that prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from these rules, the broker-dealer must make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser’s written agreement to the transaction. These disclosure requirements may have the effect of reducing the level of trading activity in the secondary market for the stock that is subject to these penny stock rules. Consequently, these penny stock rules may affect the ability of broker-dealers to trade our securities. We believe that the penny stock rules discourage investor interest in, and limit the marketability of, our common stock.

In addition to the penny stock rules promulgated by the SEC, FINRA (the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority) has adopted rules that require when recommending an investment to a customer, a broker-dealer must have reasonable grounds for believing that the investment is suitable for that customer. Prior to recommending speculative low-priced securities to their noninstitutional customers, broker-dealers must make reasonable efforts to obtain information about the customer’s financial status, tax status, investment objectives and other information. Under interpretations of these rules, the FINRA believes that there is a high probability that speculative low-priced securities will not be suitable for at least some customers. FINRA’s requirements make it more difficult for broker-dealers to recommend that their customers buy our common stock, which may limit investor ability to buy and sell our stock.

The market for penny stocks has experienced numerous frauds and abuses that could adversely impact investors in our stock.

Company management believes that the market for penny stocks has suffered from patterns of fraud and abuse. Such patterns include:

Any trading market that may develop may be restricted by virtue of state securities blue sky laws that prohibit trading absent compliance with individual state laws. These restrictions may make it difficult or impossible to sell shares in those states.

There is currently no established public market for our common stock, and there can be no assurance that any established public market will develop in the foreseeable future. Transfer of our common stock may also be restricted under the securities laws and regulations promulgated by various states and foreign jurisdictions, commonly referred to as “blue sky” laws. Absent compliance with such individual state laws, our common stock may not be traded in such jurisdictions. Because the securities being registered hereunder have not been registered for resale under the blue sky laws of any state, the holders of such shares, and persons who desire to purchase them in any trading market that might develop in the future, should be aware that there may be significant state blue sky law restrictions upon the ability of investors to sell the securities and of purchasers to purchase the securities. These restrictions prohibit the secondary trading of our common stock. We currently do not intend to and may not be able to qualify securities for resale in a number of states that do not offer manual exemptions and require shares to be qualified before they can be resold by our shareholders. Accordingly, investors should consider the secondary market for our securities to be a limited one.

Our board of directors has the authority, without stockholder approval, to issue preferred stock with terms that may not be beneficial to common stockholders and with the ability to adversely affect common stockholder voting power and rights upon liquidation.

Our Certificate of Incorporation allows us to issue shares of preferred stock without any vote or further action by our stockholders. Our board of directors has the authority to fix and determine the relative rights and preferences of preferred stock. As a result, our board of directors could authorize the issuance of a series of preferred stock that would grant to holders of preferred stock the rights to our assets upon liquidation, the right to receive dividend payments before dividends are distributed to the holders of common stock and the right to the redemption of the shares, together with a premium, prior to the redemption of our common stock.

The ability of our principal stockholders, including our CEO, to control our business may limit or eliminate minority stockholders’ ability to influence corporate affairs.

The principal holder of our common stock and the holder of our Series C Convertible Preferred Stock, which votes on an as-converted basis together with shares of our common stock as a single class, have approximately 71% voting control. Because of their stock ownership, they are in a position to significantly influence membership of our board of directors as well as all other matters requiring stockholder approval. The interests of our principal stockholders may differ from the interests of other stockholders with respect to the issuance of shares, business transactions with or sales to other companies, selection of other officers and directors and other business decisions. The minority stockholders have no way of overriding decisions made by our principal stockholders. This level of control may also have an adverse impact on the market value of our shares because our principal stockholders may institute or undertake transactions, policies or programs that result in losses may not take any steps to increase our visibility in the financial community and/or may sell sufficient numbers of shares to significantly decrease our price per share.

We do not expect to pay cash dividends in the foreseeable future.

We have never paid cash dividends on our common stock. We do not expect to pay cash dividends on our common stock at any time in the foreseeable future. The future payment of dividends depends upon our future earnings, capital requirements, financial requirements and other factors that our board of directors will consider. Since we do not anticipate paying cash dividends on our common stock, return on investment, if any, will depend solely on an increase, if any, in the market value of our common stock.

The conversion of our outstanding preferred stock would result in the issuance of 23,918,205 shares. Accordingly such market overhang could adversely impact the market price of our common stock.

We have 55,120 shares of Series C Convertible Preferred Stock outstanding, 50,000 of which are held by our CEO, which can be converted into 21,696,485 shares of common stock. Such market overhang could adversely impact the market price of our common stock as a result of the dilution which would result if such securities were converted into shares of common stock.

Because we are not subject to compliance with rules requiring the adoption of certain corporate governance measures, our stockholders have limited protection against interested-director transactions, conflicts of interest and similar matters. 

The Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 as well as rule changes proposed and enacted by the SEC, the NYSE/AMEX and the NASDAQ Stock Market as a result of Sarbanes-Oxley, require the implementation of various measures relating to corporate governance. These measures are designed to enhance the integrity of corporate management and the securities markets and apply to securities that are listed on those exchanges or the NASDAQ Stock Market. Because we are not currently required to comply with many of the corporate governance provisions and because we chose to avoid incurring the substantial additional costs associated with voluntary compliance, we have not yet adopted these measures.

We do not currently have independent audit or compensation committees. As a result, directors have the ability, among other things, to determine their own level of compensation. Until we comply with such corporate governance measures, regardless of whether such compliance is required, the absence of such standards of corporate governance may leave our stockholders without protections against interested-director transactions, conflicts of interest, if any, and similar matters and investors may be reluctant to provide us with funds necessary to expand our operations as a result thereof.

We intend to comply with all corporate governance measures relating to director independence as and when required. However, we may find it very difficult or be unable to attract and retain qualified officers, directors and members of board committees required to provide for our effective management as a result of Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. The enactment of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 has resulted in a series of rules and regulations by the SEC that increase responsibilities and liabilities of directors and executive officers. The perceived increased personal risk associated with these recent changes may make it more costly or deter qualified individuals from accepting these roles.

ITEM 2. Properties.

We do not own any real property. We maintain office space at 2131 Hollywood Boulevard, Suite 401, Hollywood, Florida 33020, pursuant to the terms of a commercial office lease providing for rental payments of $1,200 per month. The term of the office lease expires on January 31, 2014. 

See “Item 1. Business” above with respect to our leases of land in Costa Rica. 

ITEM 3. Legal Proceedings.

Currently there are no legal proceedings pending or threatened against us. However, from time to time, we may become involved in various lawsuits and legal proceedings which arise in the ordinary course of business. Litigation is subject to inherent uncertainties, and an adverse result in any such matter may harm our business.

PART II

ITEM 5. Market for Registrant’s Common Equity and Related Stockholder Matters.

Extremely Limited and Sporadic Market for Common Stock.

Our common stock is currently traded on the OTCBB under the symbol “AFAI”. Such market is extremely limited and sporadic, and the last trade of our common stock was on November 30, 2012. We can provide no assurance that our shares will be traded on the OTC Bulletin Board or another exchange, or if traded, that an actual public market will ever materialize.

The following table sets forth the range of high and low bid quotations, obtained from www.finance.yahoo.com , for our common stock as reported each of the periods indicated. These quotations reflect inter-dealer prices, without retail mark-up, mark-down or commission and may not necessarily represent actual transactions.

(1) Our common stock has not traded since November 30, 2012.

OTCBB quotations reflect inter-dealer prices without retail mark-up, mark-down or commission, and may not represent actual transactions.

The SEC has adopted rules that regulate broker-dealer practices in connection with transactions in penny stocks. Penny stocks are generally equity securities with a price of less than $5.00, other than securities registered on certain national securities exchanges or quoted on the NASDAQ system, provided that current price and volume information with respect to transactions in such securities is provided by the exchange or system. The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, prior to a transaction in a penny stock, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document prepared by the SEC, that: (a) contains a description of the nature and level of risk in the market for penny stocks in both public offerings and secondary trading; (b) contains a description of the broker’s or dealer’s duties to the customer and of the rights and remedies available to the customer with respect to a violation to such duties or other requirements of securities laws; (c) contains a brief, clear, narrative description of a dealer market, including bid and ask prices for penny stocks and the significance of the spread between the bid and ask price; (d) contains a toll-free telephone number for inquiries on disciplinary actions; (e) defines significant terms in the disclosure document or in the conduct of trading in penny stocks; and (f) contains such other information and is in such form, including language, type, size and format, as the SEC shall require by rule or regulation.

The broker-dealer also must provide, prior to effecting any transaction in a penny stock, the customer with (a) bid and offer quotations for the penny stock; (b) the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson in the transaction; (c) the number of shares to which such bid and ask prices apply, or other comparable information relating to the depth and liquidity of the market for such stock; and (d) monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer’s account. 

In addition, the penny stock rules require that prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from those rules the broker-dealer must make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser’s written acknowledgment of the receipt of a risk disclosure statement, a written agreement to transactions involving penny stocks, and a signed and dated copy of a written suitability statement.

These disclosure requirements may have the effect of reducing the trading activity in the secondary market for our stock if it becomes subject to these penny stock rules. Therefore, because our common stock is subject to the penny stock rules, stockholders may have difficulty selling those securities.

Holders of Our Common Stock.

As of March 29, 2013 we have 476 holders of record of our common stock. 

Securities Authorized for Issuance under Equity Compensation Plans 

At December 31, 2012, we had 2,500,000 shares of common stock reserved for issuance under our 2011 Incentive Stock Plan. No options or awards were granted thereunder as of such date.

ITEM 6. Selected Financial Data.

Not applicable. 

ITEM 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

We had no revenue for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2012. Accordingly, management believes the most informative discussion is to present expenses and comment thereon.

Year ended December 31, 2012 compared to year ended December 31, 2011.

Total operating expenses declined approximately $456,000 in 2012 as compared to 2011. As noted elsewhere, we have been operating at extremely low levels of liquidity since April 2011. This affected both our ability to raise capital and also necessitated close attention to expenses.

Selling, general and administrative expenses

Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased approximately $415,000 in 2012 compared to 2011. The primary components of the decrease result from 2011 expenses that were incurred for our early stage business development and strategy planning efforts for raising equity capital. Many such 2011 expenses did not recur in 2012, resulting in decreases for consultants (approximately $343,000). Certain expenses were incurred in early 2012 for compliance with regulatory requirements associated with stock registration and SEC filing requirements and resulted in increases in legal and accounting fees of approximately $86,000 in 2012. Other increases in 2012 expense include farm expense associated with the Company’s Costa Rican operations of approximately $75,000.

Interest expense

The reduction in interest expense is the result of reduced debt principal and lower interest rates in 2012 compared to 2011.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Since January 2010, the Company has raised a total of $1,964,000, including $75,000 in the first quarter of 2013, in a series of private placements of debt and equity securities. Management recognizes the Company’s current financial difficulties that, at December 31, 2012, include a working capital deficiency of $1,033,967 and no cash. However, management believes that its Plan of Operations is strong. This plan recognizes the Company’s need to generate working capital to successfully develop its operations towards the goal of becoming a seed-to-pump biofuels company. Management actions already taken and future plans include:

However, we may not be successful in raising additional capital, and assuming that we raise additional funds, the Company may not achieve profitability or positive cash flow. If we are not able to timely and successfully raise additional capital and/or achieve profitability or positive cash flow, our business, financial condition, cash flows and results of operations may be materially and adversely affected.

Critical Accounting Estimates

The following are deemed to be the most significant accounting estimates affecting us and our results of operations:

Fair value of financial instruments

The Company follows the provisions of ASC 820. This Topic defines fair value, establishes a measurement framework and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. We apply these provisions to estimate the fair value of our financial instruments including cash, accounts payable and accrued expenses, and notes payable.

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with ASC 740, Accounting for Income Taxes, as clarified by ASC 740-10, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes. Our deferred income taxes are determined based on the estimated future tax effects of differences between the financial statement and tax basis of assets and liabilities given the provisions of enacted tax laws. Deferred income tax provisions and benefits are based on changes to the assets or liabilities from year to year. In providing for deferred taxes, the Company considers tax regulations of the jurisdictions in which the Company operates, estimates of future taxable income, and available tax planning strategies. If tax regulations, operating results or the ability to implement tax-planning strategies vary, adjustments to the carrying value of deferred tax assets and liabilities may be required. Valuation allowances are recorded related to deferred tax assets based on the “more likely than not” criteria of ASC 740.

ASC 740-10 requires that the Company recognize the financial statement benefit of a tax position only after determining that the relevant tax authority would more likely than not sustain the position following an audit. For tax positions meeting the “more-likely-than-not” threshold, the amount recognized in the financial statements is the largest benefit that has a greater than 50 percent likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement with the relevant tax authority.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

There are no recent accounting pronouncements issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”), the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (“AICPA”), and the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") believed by management to have a material impact on the Company’s present or future financial statements.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

There are no off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that is material to investors.

INDEX TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED

PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders

of Alternative Fuels Americas, Inc.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Alternative Fuels Americas, Inc. as of December 31, 2012 and 2011, and the related consolidated statements of operations, statement of changes in net capital deficiency, and cash flows for each the years in the two-year period ended December 31, 2012. Alternative Fuels Americas, Inc.’s management is responsible for these statements. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall consolidated financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Alternative Fuels Americas, Inc. as of December 31, 2012 and 2011, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended December 31, 2012 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has suffered recurring losses from operations and has a net capital deficiency that raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 2. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION AND NATURE OF THE BUSINESS

Organization

Alternative Fuels Americas, Inc. (“AFAI”, “Company”) is a development stage company. The Company was incorporated in 1993 and has engaged in a number of businesses. Its name was changed on May 11, 2007 to NetSpace International Holdings, Inc. (a Delaware corporation) (“NetSpace”). NetSpace acquired 100% of Alternative Fuels Americas, Inc. (a Florida corporation) in January 2010 in a stock-for-member interest transaction and issued 6,567,247 shares of common stock and 100,000 shares of Series C convertible preferred stock to existing shareholders. A Certificate of Amendment to the Certificate of Incorporation was filed in October 2010 changing the Company’s name from NetSpace International Holdings, Inc. to Alternative Fuels Americas, Inc. (a Delaware corporation).

The Company has two wholly-owned subsidiaries, Alternative Fuels Americas, Inc. (a Florida corporation) and Alternative Fuels Costa Rica AFA-CR, LTDA, located in Costa Rica.

Nature of the business

The Company intends to be a “seed–to-pump” biofuels company. Operations will be in Latin America and will include growing plants suitable for conversion into biofuels, extraction of crude oil from plant matter, refining the crude oil into international grade biodiesel, and selling the refined oil to end users in countries where the oil is produced.

Risks

The Company has been operating with extremely limited available cash and desperately needs additional sources of financing. See Note 2 and Note 10. If such financing is not obtained, the Company may have to curtail its operations.

The Company is subject to all the risks inherent in an early stage company in the biodiesel industry and has numerous competitors globally. These competitors may have more substantial resources and be able to succeed in manufacturing products faster than those that are contemplated by the Company’s plan of operations. Many of these competitors have substantially greater financial and technical resources and production and marketing capabilities than the Company, primarily in other parts of the world.

NOTE 2 - LIQUIDITY AND GOING CONCERN

The Company’s consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2012 have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the settlement of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. The Company incurred a net loss of $1,361,285 for the year ended December 31, 2011 and $523,658 for the year ended December 31, 2012. At December 31, 2012 the Company has a working capital deficiency of $1,033,967 and is totally dependent on its ability to raise capital. The Company has a plan of operations and acknowledges that its plan of operations may not result in generating positive working capital in the near future. Even though management believes that it will be able to successfully execute its business plan, which includes third-party financing and capital issuance, and meet the Company’s future liquidity needs, there can be no assurances in that regard. These matters raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this material uncertainty.

Management recognizes that the Company must generate additional funds to successfully develop its operations and activities to become a seed-to-pump biofuels company. Management plans include:

NOTE 3 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICES AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Basis of presentation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Use of estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates, and the differences could be material.

Concentration of credit risk

Financial instruments which potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash. Management believes the financial risks associated with these financial instruments are minimal. The Company places its cash with high credit quality financial institutions and makes short-term investments in high credit quality money market instruments of short-term duration. The Company maintains its cash in bank deposit accounts which, at times, may exceed federally insured limits.

Cash and cash equivalents

The Company considers all investments purchased with original maturities of three months or less to be cash and cash equivalents.

Fair value of financial instruments

The Company follows the provisions of ASC 820. This Topic defines fair value, establishes a measurement framework and expands disclosures about fair value measurements.

The carrying amount of financial instruments including cash, accounts payable and accrued expenses, and notes payable approximates fair value at December 31, 2011 and 2012.

Property and equipment

Furniture, fixtures and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, which range from three to five years. Routine maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred, and major renovations or improvements are capitalized.

Trees

Trees consist of 40,000 Jatropha trees located on leased property in Costa Rica. Because the trees are being cultivated and maintained preparatory to having their fruit harvested for crushing and processing into oil, they have not been placed in service at December 31, 2012, and no depreciation has been provided.

Long-lived assets

The Company reviews long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangibles held and used for possible impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. In evaluating the fair value and future benefits of its intangible assets, management performs an analysis of the anticipated undiscounted future net cash flow of the individual assets over the remaining amortization period. The Company recognizes an impairment loss if the carrying value of the asset exceeds the expected future cash flows. During the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2012, there were no deemed impairments of long-lived assets.

Earnings Per Share

In accordance with ASC 260, Earnings per Share, the Company calculates basic earnings per share by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share are computed if the Company has net income; otherwise it would be antidilutive, and would result from the conversion of a convertible note.

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with ASC 740, Accounting for Income Taxes, as clarified by ASC 740-10, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes.  Under this method, deferred income taxes are determined based on the estimated future tax effects of differences between the financial statement and tax basis of assets and liabilities given the provisions of enacted tax laws. Deferred income tax provisions and benefits are based on changes to the assets or liabilities from year to year. In providing for deferred taxes, the Company considers tax regulations of the jurisdictions in which the Company operates, estimates of future taxable income, and available tax planning strategies. If tax regulations, operating results or the ability to implement tax-planning strategies vary, adjustments to the carrying value of deferred tax assets and liabilities may be required. Valuation allowances are recorded related to deferred tax assets based on the “more likely than not” criteria of ASC 740.

ASC 740-10 requires that the Company recognize the financial statement benefit of a tax position only after determining that the relevant tax authority would more likely than not sustain the position following an audit. For tax positions meeting the “more-likely-than-not” threshold, the amount recognized in the financial statements is the largest benefit that has a greater than 50 percent likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement with the relevant tax authority.

Reclassifications

Certain amounts in 2011 and for the period from inception through December 31, 2012 were reclassified to conform to the 2012 presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on consolidated net loss for the periods presented.

NOTE 4 – DEBT AND INSTALLMENT AGREEMENT

At the option of the holder the convertible note may be converted into shares of the Company’s common stock at the lesser of $0.40 or 20% discount to the market price, as defined, of the Company’s common stock.

The Company has an installment agreement covering the purchase of trees. The obligation is payable at the rate of $2,500 per month in 2013 plus a payment of $30,000 in November 2013 with the balance due in November 2014.

NOTE 5 –STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY

The Company has 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock authorized with a par value of $0.001, of which 100,000 shares have been designated as Series C convertible preferred stock (“Series C” or “Series C preferred stock”). The Board has the authority to issue the shares in one or more series and to fix the designations, preferences, powers and other rights, as it deems appropriate.

Each share of Series C has 433.9297 votes on any matters submitted to a vote of the stockholders of the Company and is entitled to dividends equal to the dividends of 433.9297 shares of common stock. Each share of Series C preferred stock is convertible at any time at the option of the holder into 433.9297 shares of common stock.

The Company has 250,000,000 shares of common stock authorized with a par value of $0.001. Each share of common stock has one vote per share for the election of directors and all other items submitted to a vote of stockholders. The common stock does not have cumulative voting rights, preemptive, redemption or conversion rights.

In 2011 the Company issued 3,570,000 shares of common stock to consultants. The shares were valued at $119,000, the fair value of the stock at the time. In 2012 the Company issued 300,000 shares of common stock to its directors and 3,043,194 shares of common stock to consultants. The shares were valued at $30,000 and $604,296, respectively, the fair value of the stock at the time.

The Company used a Level 3 fair value measurement to determine fair value, which are significant unobservable inputs as defined in ASC 820, previously SFAS No. 157 “Fair Value Measurements”. The 2011 shares were issued with a twelve-month right of rescission by the Company which resulted in discounts to the then market value of the common stock of 75%. The 2012 shares were discounted 41% from the volume-weighted average price for the year to reflect marketability and minority interest discounts. The then market value of the stock was determined by using the value of shares being sold under the Company’s private placement in 2011 and with respect to trading on the OTCC BB in 2012.

NOTE 6 –LEASES

The Company is obligated under operating lease agreements for its corporate office, which expires January 2014, and for land in Costa Rica for use in its planting and farming operations, which expires in 2020. There is an option to extend the Costa Rica lease for an additional 10 years.

Minimum future lease commitments are:

Rent expense was $6,244 and $17,838 for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2012, respectively.

NOTE 7 –STOCK OPTION PLAN

In 2011 the Company’s board of directors approved the Alternative Fuels America, Inc. 2011 Incentive Stock Plan (the “Plan”), which provides for equity incentives to be granted to the Company’s employees, executive officers or directors or to key advisers or consultants. Equity incentives may be in the form of stock options with an exercise price not less than the fair market value of the underlying shares as determined pursuant to the 2011 Incentive Stock Plan, restricted stock awards, other stock based awards, or any combination of the foregoing. The 2011 Incentive Stock Plan is administered by the board of directors. 2,500,000 shares of our common stock are reserved for issuance pursuant to the exercise of awards under the 2011 Incentive Stock Plan. No awards are outstanding at December 31, 2012.

NOTE 8 –RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

The Company has agreements covering its management personnel (See Note 11). Such agreements provide for minimum compensation levels and are subject to annual adjustment.

ITEM 9. Changes in and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure.

None.

ITEM 9A. Controls and Procedures.

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer (our principal executive officer) and Chief Financial Officer (our principal financial and accounting officer) to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

As of December 31, 2012, the end of our fiscal year covered by this report, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based on the foregoing, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by this annual report.

Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Responsibility, estimates and judgments by management are required to assess the expected benefits and related costs of control procedures. The objectives of internal control include providing management with reasonable, but not absolute, assurance that assets are safeguarded against loss from unauthorized use or disposition, and that transactions are executed in accordance with management’s authorization and recorded properly to permit the preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. Our management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2012. In making this assessment, our management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”) in Internal Control-Integrated Framework. Our management has concluded that, as of December 31, 2012, our internal control over financial reporting was effective.

This annual report does not include an attestation report of our company’s registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by our Company’s registered public accounting firm pursuant to rules of the SEC that permit our Company to provide only management’s report in this annual report.

Inherent limitations on effectiveness of controls

Internal control over financial reporting has inherent limitations which include but is not limited to the use of independent professionals for advice and guidance, interpretation of existing and/or changing rules and principles, segregation of management duties, scale of organization, and personnel factors. Internal control over financial reporting is a process which involves human diligence and compliance and is subject to lapses in judgment and breakdowns resulting from human failures. Internal control over financial reporting also can be circumvented by collusion or improper management override. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements on a timely basis, however, these inherent limitations are known features of the financial reporting process and it is possible to design into the process safeguards to reduce, though not eliminate, this risk. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation. 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.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

In June 2012 we engaged Thomas J. Bohannon as our Chief Financial Officer to replace an individual serving as Acting Chief Financial Officer. We anticipate that this will strengthen our internal controls. Otherwise, there was no change in our internal controls or in other factors that could affect these controls during the year ended December 31, 2012 that have materially or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.

ITEM 9B. Other Information

None.

Terms of Office

Our directors are appointed for a one-year term to hold office until the next annual meeting of our stockholders and until a successor is appointed and qualified, or until their removal, resignation, or death. Executive officers serve at the pleasure of the board of directors.

Board Committees

Two of our three directors are independent within the scope of the rules adopted by the NASDAQ Stock Market and the SEC: Ms. Schwarz and Mr. Arimany. However, our board of directors does not currently have an audit committee, a compensation committee, or a corporate governance committee. We plan to establish such committees in the near future.

Board of Directors Role in Risk Oversight

The board of directors has periodic meetings with management and the Company’s independent auditors to perform risk oversight with respect to the Company’s internal control processes. Our board is currently comprised of a majority of independent directors. The Company believes that the board’s role in risk oversight does not materially affect the leadership structure of the Company.

Code of Ethics

We adopted a Code of Business Conduct and Ethics (“Ethics code”) on February 28, 2013 that includes provisions ranging from conflicts of interest to compliance with all applicable laws and regulations. All officers, directors and employees are bound by this Ethics code, violations of which may be reported to any independent member of the Board of Directors.

Accordingly, more than one person may be deemed to be a beneficial owner of the same security.

Review, Approval and Ratification of Related Party Transactions

Given our small size and limited financial resources, we have not adopted formal policies and procedures for the review, approval or ratification of transactions with our executive officers, directors and significant shareholders. However, all matters relating to the compensation and stock awards for such persons were approved by the Board of Directors prior to implementation.

These services may include audit, audit-related, tax and other services. Pre-approval is generally for up to one year, is detailed as to the particular service or category of services, and is generally subject to a specific budget.
