NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED

FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(UNAUDITED)

NOTE 1. INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENT

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Network CN Inc., its subsidiaries and variable interest entities (collectively “NCN” or the “Company”) have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”) and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes necessary for a comprehensive presentation of our financial position and results of operations.

The condensed consolidated financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008 were not audited. It is management’s opinion, however, that all material adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) have been made which are necessary for a fair financial statements presentation. The results for the interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full fiscal year. The year-end condensed consolidated balance sheet data was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2008, previously filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 27, 2009.

NOTE 2. ORGANIZATION AND PRINCIPAL ACTIVITIES

NCN is principally engaged in the provision of out-of-home advertising in China. Since late 2006, the Company has been operating an advertising network of roadside LED digital video panels, mega-size LED digital video billboards and light boxes in major Chinese cities.

Network CN Inc., originally incorporated on September 10, 1993 under the name EC Capital Limited, is a Delaware company with headquarters in the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region, the PRC. The Company was operated by different management teams in the past, under different operating names, pursuing a variety of business ventures. Between 2004 and 2006, the Company operated under the name Teda Travel Group Inc., which was primarily engaged in the provision of management services to hotels and resorts in China. On August 1, 2006, the Company changed its name to “Network CN Inc.” in order to better reflect its new vision to build a nationwide information and entertainment network in China through its business in Travel Network and Media Network. In 2008, the Company disposed of its entire travel network in order to focus on Media Network. Accordingly, such travel business has been classified as discontinued operations for all periods presented (see Note 15 – Discontinued Operations for details).

Details of the Company’s principal subsidiaries and variable interest entities as of March 31, 2009 are described in Note 5 – Subsidiaries and Variable Interest Entities.

Going Concern

The Company has experienced continuous recurring net losses in recent years. The net losses of the Company for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008 were $3.8 million and $8.4 million respectively. Additionally, the Company has net cash used in operating activities of $2.2 million and $9.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008 respectively. As of March 31, 2009, the Company recorded a stockholders’ deficit of $26.6 million. These factors raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. The Company’s plans regarding those concerns are addressed in the following paragraph. The condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Table of Contents

In response to current financial conditions, the Company has undergone drastic cost-cutting exercise including reduction of the Company’s workforce, rentals, as well as selling and marketing expenses and other general and administrative expenses. Certain commercially non-viable concession right contracts were terminated and management has successfully negotiated with certain authority parties of concession rights to reduce advertising operating right fees. In addition, the Company has explored various means of obtaining additional financing. As of April 2, 2009, the Company entered into a new financing arrangement with the holders of its convertible notes and warrants and certain other investors, pursuant to which $45 million of 3% convertible promissory notes was converted into common stock and the remaining $5 million of the notes was exchanged for $5 million of 1% convertible promissory notes (see Note 17 – Subsequent Events for details). Accordingly, management believes that there are sufficient financial resources to meet the cash requirements for the next 12 months and the condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis.

NOTE 3 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

(A) Basis of Presentation and Preparation

These condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

These condensed consolidated financial statements were prepared on a going concern basis. The Company has determined that the going concern basis of preparation is appropriate based on its estimates and judgments of future performance of the Company, future events and projected cash flows. At each balance sheet date, the Company evaluates its estimates and judgments as part of its going concern assessment. Based on its assessment, the Company believes there are sufficient financial and cash resources to finance the Company as a going concern in the next twelve months. Accordingly, management has prepared the condensed consolidated financial statements on a going concern basis.

(B) Principles of Consolidation

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of Network CN Inc., its subsidiaries and variable interest entities. Variable interest entities are those entities in which the Company, through contractual arrangements, bears the risks of, and enjoys the rewards normally associated with ownership of the entities, and therefore the Company is the primary beneficiary of these entities. In accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Interpretation No. 46R “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities” (“FIN 46R”), the primary beneficiary is required to consolidate the variable interest entities for financial reporting purposes. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated upon consolidation.

In preparing condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reported period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Differences from those estimates are reported in the period they become known and are disclosed to the extent they are material to the condensed consolidated financial statements taken as a whole.

(D) Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash includes cash on hand, cash accounts, and interest bearing savings accounts placed with banks and financial institutions. For the purposes of the cash flow statements, the Company considers all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less at the time of purchase to be cash equivalents. As of March 31, 2009 and 2008, the Company had no cash equivalents.

Table of Contents

(E) Allowance for Doubtful Debts

Allowance for doubtful debts is made against receivable to the extent they are considered to be doubtful. Receivables in the condensed consolidated balance sheet are stated net of such allowance. The Company records its allowance for doubtful debts based upon its assessment of various factors. The Company considers historical experience, the age of the receivable balances, the credit quality of its customers, current economic conditions, and other factors that may affect customers’ ability to pay to determine the level of allowance required.

(F) Prepayments for Advertising Operating Rights, Net

Prepayments for advertising operating rights are measured at cost less accumulated amortization and impairment losses. Cost includes prepaid expenses directly attributable to the acquisition of advertising operating rights. Such prepaid expenses are in general charged to the condensed consolidated statements of operations on a straight-line basis over the operating period. All the costs expected to be amortized after 12 months of the balance sheet date are classified as non-current assets.

An impairment loss is recognized when the carrying amount of the prepayments for advertising operating rights exceeds the sum of the undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated from the advertising operating right’s use and eventual disposition. An impairment loss is measured as the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the fair value of the asset calculated using a discounted cash flow analysis.

(G) Equipment, Net

Equipment is stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses. Depreciation is provided using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life as follows:

Media display equipment		5 - 7 years
Office equipment		3 - 5 years
Furniture and fixtures		3 - 5 years
Leasehold improvements		Over the unexpired lease terms

Construction in progress is carried at cost less impairment losses, if any. It relates to construction of media display equipment. No provision for depreciation is made on construction in progress until the relevant assets are completed and put into use.

When equipment is retired or otherwise disposed of, the related cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the respective accounts, and any gain or loss is reflected in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. Repairs and maintenance costs on equipment are expensed as incurred.

(H) Intangible Assets, Net

Intangible assets are stated at cost less accumulated amortization and impairment losses. Intangible assets that have indefinite useful lives are not amortized. Other intangible assets with finite useful lives are amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives of 16 months to 20 years. The amortization methods and estimated useful lives of intangible assets are reviewed regularly.

(I) Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

Long-lived assets, including intangible assets with definite lives, are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstance indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be recoverable. An intangible asset that is not subject to amortization is reviewed for impairment annually or more frequently whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the asset may not be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognized when the carrying amount of a long-lived asset and intangible asset exceeds the sum of the undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated from the asset’s use and eventual disposition. An impairment loss is measured as the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the fair value of the asset calculated using a discounted cash flow analysis.

Table of Contents

(J) Deferred Charges, Net

Deferred charges are fees and expenses directly related to the issuance of convertible promissory notes, including placement agents’ fees. Deferred charges are capitalized and amortized over the life of the convertible promissory notes using the effective yield method. Amortization of deferred charges is included in interest expense on the condensed consolidated statements of operations while the unamortized balance is included in deferred charges on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

(K) Convertible Promissory Notes and Warrants

During 2007 and 2008, the Company issued a 12% convertible promissory note and warrants and 3% convertible promissory notes and warrants. As of March 31, 2009 and December 31, 2008, the warrants and embedded conversion feature were classified as equity under Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) Issue No. 00-19 “Accounting for Derivative Financial Instruments Indexed to, and Potentially Settled in, a Company’s Own Stock” and met the other criteria in paragraph 11(a) of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 133 “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities”. Such classification will be reassessed at each balance sheet date. The Company allocated the proceeds of the convertible promissory notes between convertible promissory notes and the financial instruments related to warrants associated with convertible promissory notes based on their relative fair values at the commitment date. The fair value of the financial instruments related to warrants associated with convertible promissory notes was determined utilizing the Black-Scholes option pricing model and the respective allocated proceeds to the warrants is recorded in additional paid-in capital. The embedded beneficial conversion feature associated with convertible promissory notes was recognized and measured by allocating a portion of the proceeds equal to the intrinsic value of that feature to additional paid-in capital in accordance with EITF Issue No. 98-5 “Accounting for Convertible Securities with Beneficial Conversion Features or Contingently Adjustable Conversion Ratio” and EITF Issue No. 00-27 “Application of Issue No. 98-5 to Certain Convertible Instruments”.

The portion of debt discount resulting from the allocation of proceeds to the financial instruments related to warrants associated with convertible promissory notes is being amortized to interest expense over the life of the convertible promissory notes, using the effective yield method. For the portion of debt discount resulting from the allocation of proceeds to the beneficial conversion feature, it is amortized to interest expense over the term of the notes from the respective dates of issuance using the effective yield method.

(L) Early Redemption of Convertible Promissory Notes

Should early redemption of convertible promissory notes occur, the unamortized portion of the associated deferred charges and debt discount would be fully written off and any early redemption premium will be recognized as expense upon its occurrence. All related charges, if material, would be aggregated and included in a separate line “charges on early redemption of convertible promissory notes”. Such an expense would be included in ordinary activities on the condensed consolidated statements of operations as required by SFAS No. 145 “Rescission of FASB Statements No. 4, 44, and 64, Amendment of FASB Statement No. 13, and Technical Corrections”.

Pursuant to the provisions of agreements in connection with the 3% convertible promissory notes, in the event of a default, or if the Company’s actual earnings per share (“EPS”) in any fiscal year is less than 80% of the respective EPS target, certain investors may require the Company to redeem the 3% Convertible Promissory Notes at 100% of the principal amount, plus any accrued and unpaid interest, plus an amount representing a 20% internal rate of return on the then outstanding principal amount. The Company accounts for such potential liability of 20% internal rate of return on the then outstanding principal amount in accordance with SFAS No. 5 “Accounting for Contingencies”.

(M) Revenue Recognition

For advertising services, the Company recognizes revenue in the period when advertisements are either aired or published. Revenues from advertising barter transactions are recognized in the period during which the advertisements are either aired or published. Expenses from barter transactions are recognized in the period as incurred. Barter transactions are accounted in accordance with EITF Issue No. 99-17 “Accounting for Advertising Barter Transactions”, which are recorded at the fair value of the advertising provided based on the Company’s own historical practice of receiving cash for similar advertising from buyers unrelated to the counterparty in the barter transactions. The amounts included in advertising services revenue and general and administrative for barter transactions were $nil for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008.

For hotel management services, the Company recognizes revenue in the period when the services are rendered and collection is reasonably assured.

For tour services, the Company recognizes services-based revenue when the services have been performed. Guangdong Tianma International Travel Service Co., Ltd. (“Tianma”) offers independent leisure travelers bundled packaged-tour products which include both air-ticketing and hotel reservations. Tianma’s packaged-tour products cover a variety of domestic and international destinations.

Tianma organizes inbound and outbound tour and travel packages which can incorporate, among other things, air and land transportation, hotels, restaurants and tickets to tourist destinations and other excursions. Tianma books all elements of such packages with third-party service providers such as airlines, car rental companies and hotels, or through other tour package providers and then resells such packages to its clients. A typical sale of tour services is as follows:

Tianma, in consultation with sub-agents, organizes a tour or travel package, including making reservations for blocks of tickets, rooms, etc. with third-party service providers. Tianma may be required to make deposits, pay all or part of the ultimate fees charged by such service providers or make legally binding commitments to pay such fees. For air-tickets, Tianma normally books a block of air tickets with airlines in advance and pays the full amount of the tickets to reserve seats before any tours are formed. The air tickets are usually valid for a certain period of time. If the pre-packaged tours do not materialize and are eventually not formed, Tianma will resell the air tickets to other travel agents or customers. For hotels, meals and transportation, Tianma usually pays an upfront deposit of 50-60% of the total cost. The remaining balance is then settled after completion of the tours.

2.	Tianma, through its sub-agents, advertises tour and travel packages at prices set by Tianma and sub-agents.

3.	Customers approach Tianma or its appointed sub-agents to book an advertised packaged tour.

4.	The customers pay a deposit to Tianma directly or through its appointed sub-agents.

When the minimum required number of customers (which number is different for each tour based on the elements and costs of the tour) for a particular tour is reached, Tianma will contact the customers for tour confirmation and request full payment. All payments received by the appointed sub-agents are paid to Tianma prior to the commencement of the tours.

6.	Tianma will then make or finalize corresponding bookings with outside service providers such as airlines, bus operators, hotels, restaurants, etc. and pay any unpaid fees or deposits to such providers.

Tianma is the principal in such transactions and the primary obligor to the third-party providers regardless of whether it has received full payment from its customers. In addition, Tianma is also liable to the customers for any claims relating to the tours such as accidents or tour services. Tianma has adequate insurance coverage for accidental loss arising during the tours. The Company utilizes a network of sub-agents who operate strictly in Tianma’s name and can only advertise and promote the business of Tianma with the prior approval of Tianma.

(N) Stock-based Compensation

In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123R “Share-Based Payment”, a revision to SFAS No. 123 “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation”, and superseding APB Opinion No. 25 “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees” and its related implementation guidance. Effective January 1, 2006, the Company adopted SFAS No. 123R, using a modified prospective application transition method, which establishes accounting for stock-based awards in exchange for employee services. Under this application, the Company is required to record stock-based compensation expense for all awards granted after the date of adoption and unvested awards that were outstanding as of the date of adoption. SFAS No. 123R requires that stock-based compensation cost is measured at grant date, based on the fair value of the award, and recognized in expense over the requisite services period.

Table of Contents

Common stock, stock options and warrants issued to other than employees or directors in exchange for services are recorded on the basis of their fair value, as required by SFAS No. 123R, which is measured as of the date required by EITF Issue 96-18 “Accounting for Equity Instruments That Are Issued to Other Than Employees for Acquiring, or in Conjunction with Selling, Goods or Services”. In accordance with EITF 96-18, the non-employee stock options or warrants are measured at their fair value by using the Black-Scholes option pricing model as of the earlier of the date at which a commitment for performance to earn the equity instruments is reached (“performance commitment date”) or the date at which performance is complete (“performance completion date”). The stock-based compensation expenses are recognized on a straight-line basis over the shorter of the period over which services are to be received or the vesting period. Accounting for non-employee stock options or warrants which involve only performance conditions when no performance commitment date or performance completion date has occurred as of reporting date requires measurement at the equity instruments then-current fair value. Any subsequent changes in the market value of the underlying common stock are reflected in the expense recorded in the subsequent period in which that change occurs.

(O) Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes under SFAS No. 109 “Accounting for Income Taxes”. Under SFAS No. 109, deferred tax assets and liabilities are provided for the future tax effects attributable to temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases, and for the expected future tax benefits from items including tax loss carry forwards.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or reversed. Under SFAS No. 109, the effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.

(P) Comprehensive Income (Loss)

The Company follows SFAS No. 130 “Reporting Comprehensive Income” for the reporting and display of its comprehensive income (loss) and related components in the financial statements and thereby reports a measure of all changes in equity of an enterprise that results from transactions and economic events other than transactions with the shareholders. Items of comprehensive income (loss) are reported in both the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss and the consolidated statement of stockholders’ equity.

(Q) Earnings (Loss) Per Common Share

Basic earnings (loss) per common share are computed in accordance with SFAS No. 128 “Earnings Per Share” by dividing the net income (loss) attributable to holders of common stock by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares including the dilutive effect of common share equivalents then outstanding.

The diluted net loss per share is the same as the basic net loss per share for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008 as all potential ordinary shares including stock options and warrants are anti-dilutive and are therefore excluded from the computation of diluted net loss per share.

(R) Operating Leases

Leases where substantially all the rewards and risks of ownership of assets remain with the leasing company are accounted for as operating leases. Payments made under operating leases are charged to the condensed consolidated statements of operations on a straight-line basis over the lease period.

Table of Contents

(S) Foreign Currency Translation

The assets and liabilities of the Company’s subsidiaries and variable interest entities denominated in currencies other than U.S. dollars are translated into U.S. dollars using the applicable exchange rates at the balance sheet date. For condensed consolidated statements of operations’ items, amounts denominated in currencies other than U.S. dollars were translated into U.S. dollars using the average exchange rate during the period. Equity accounts were translated at their historical exchange rates. Net gains and losses resulting from translation of foreign currency financial statements are included in the statements of stockholders’ equity as accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). Foreign currency transaction gains and losses are reflected in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

(T) Fair Value of Financial Instruments

SFAS No. 157 “Fair Value Measurements” defines fair value as the price that would be received from selling an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. 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 it considers assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability.

SFAS No. 157 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. A financial instrument’s categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. SFAS 157 establishes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

Level 1 - Level 1 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2 - Level 2 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets with insufficient volume or infrequent transactions (less active markets); or model-derived valuations in which significant inputs are observable or can be derived principally from, or corroborated by, observable market data.

Level 3 - Level 3 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are unobservable inputs to the valuation methodology that are significant to the measurement of the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

The carrying value of the Company’s financial instruments, which consist of cash, accounts receivable, prepayments for advertising operating rights, prepaid expenses and other current assets, accounts payable, accrued expenses and other payables, approximates fair value due to the short-term maturities.

The carrying value of the Company’s financial instruments related to warrants associated with convertible promissory notes is stated at a value being equal to the allocated proceeds of convertible promissory notes based on the relative fair value of notes and warrants. In the measurement of the fair value of these instruments, the Black-Scholes option pricing model is utilized, which is consistent with the Company’s historical valuation techniques. These derived fair value estimates are significantly affected by the assumptions used. The allocated value of the financial instruments related to warrants associated with convertible promissory notes is recorded as an equity, which does not require to mark-to-market as of each subsequent reporting period.

(U) Concentration of Credit Risk

The Company places its cash with various financial institutions. The Company believes that no significant credit risk exists as these cash investments are made with high-credit-quality financial institutions.

All the revenue of the Company and a significant portion of the Company’s assets are generated and located in China. The Company’s business activities and accounts receivable are mainly from advertising services. Deposits are usually collected from customers in advance and the Company performs ongoing credit evaluation of its customers. The Company believes that no significant credit risk exists as credit loss.

(V) Segmental Reporting

SFAS No. 131 “Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information” establishes standards for reporting information about operating segments on a basis consistent with the Company’s internal organization structure as well as information about geographical areas, business segments and major customers in financial statements. The Company’s operating segments are organized internally primarily by the type of services rendered. In September 2008, the Company disposed of its entire travel business and focus on developing its media business in the PRC. Accordingly, it is management’s view that the services rendered by the Company are of one operating segment: Media Network.

(W) Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157 “Fair Value Measurements”. Effective January 1, 2008, the Company adopted the measurement and disclosure other than those requirements related to nonfinancial assets and liabilities in accordance with guidance from FASB Staff Position 157-2 “Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 157”, which delayed the effective date of SFAS No. 157 for all nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities, except for items that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a recurring basis (at least annually), until the beginning of fiscal year 2009. In April 2009, the FASB issued Staff Position No. FAS 157-4 “Determining Fair Value When the Volume and Level of Activity for the Asset or Liability Have Significantly Decreased and Identifying Transactions That Are Not Orderly” (“FSP FAS No. 157-4”). FSP FAS No. 157-4 clarifies the methodology used to determine fair value when there is no active market or where the price inputs being used represent distressed sales. FSP FAS No. 157-4 also reaffirms the objective of fair value measurement, as stated in SFAS No. 157 “Fair Value Measurements”, which is to reflect how much an asset would be sold for in an orderly transaction. It also reaffirms the need to use judgment to determine if a formerly active market has become inactive, as well as to determine fair values when markets have become inactive. FSP FAS No. 157-4 will be applied prospectively and will be effective for interim and annual reporting periods ending after June 15, 2009. The Company believes the adoption of SFAS No. 157 for nonfinancial assets and liabilities will not have a significant effect on its consolidated financial position or results of operations.

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141 (Revised) “Business Combinations” (“SFAS No. 141(R)”), replacing SFAS No. 141 “Business Combinations” (“SFAS No. 141”), and SFAS No. 160 “Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements – an amendment of ARB No. 51”. SFAS No. 141(R) retains the fundamental requirements of SFAS No. 141, broadens its scope by applying the acquisition method to all transactions and other events in which one entity obtains control over one or more other businesses, and requires, among other things, that assets acquired and liabilities assumed be measured at fair value as of the acquisition date, that liabilities related to contingent consideration be recognized at the acquisition date and re-measured at fair value in each subsequent reporting period, that acquisition-related costs be expensed as incurred, and that income be recognized if the fair value of the net assets acquired exceeds the fair value of the consideration transferred. SFAS No. 160 improves the relevance, comparability, and transparency of the financial information that a reporting entity provides in its consolidated financial statements by establishing accounting and reporting standards that require; the ownership interests in subsidiaries held by parties other than the parent and the amount of consolidated net income attributable to the parent and to the noncontrolling interest be clearly identified and presented on the face of the consolidated statement of income, changes in a parent’s ownership interest while the parent retains its controlling financial interest in its subsidiary be accounted for consistently, when a subsidiary is deconsolidated, any retained noncontrolling equity investment in the former subsidiary be initially measured at fair value, entities provide sufficient disclosures that clearly identify and distinguish between the interests of the parent and the interests of the noncontrolling owners. SFAS No. 160 affects those entities that have an outstanding noncontrolling interest in one or more subsidiaries or that deconsolidate a subsidiary. SFAS No. 141(R) and SFAS No. 160 are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning on or after December 15, 2008. In April 2009, the FASB issued Staff Position No. FAS 141(R)-1 “Accounting for Assets Acquired and Liabilities Assumed in a Business Combination that Arise from Contingencies” (“FSP FAS No. 141(R)-1”). FSP FAS No. 141(R)-1 applies to all assets acquired and all liabilities assumed in a business combination that arise from contingencies. FSP FAS No. 141(R)-1 states that the acquirer will recognize such an asset or liability if the acquisition-date fair value of that asset or liability can be determined during the measurement period. If it cannot be determined during the measurement period, then the asset or liability should be recognized at the acquisition date if the following criteria, consistent with SFAS No. 5 “Accounting for Contingencies”, are met: (1) information available before the end of the measurement period indicates that it is probable that an asset existed or that a liability had been incurred at the acquisition date, and (2) the amount of the asset or liability can be reasonably estimated. FSP FAS No. 141(R)-1 will be effective for assets or liabilities arising from contingencies in business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after the beginning of the first annual reporting period beginning on or after December 15, 2008. The adoption of SFAS No. 141(R) and FSP FAS No. 141(R)-1 did not have a material impact on our financial statements. Beginning January 1, 2009, the Company has applied the provisions of SFAS No. 160 to its accounting for noncontrolling interests and its financial statement disclosures. The disclosure provisions of such standard have been applied to all periods presented in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements.

Table of Contents

In March 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 161 “Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, an amendment of FASB Statement No. 133” (“SFAS No. 161”). This statement is intended to improve transparency in financial reporting by requiring enhanced disclosures of an entity’s derivative instruments and hedging activities and their effects on the entity’s financial position, financial performance, and cash flows. SFAS No. 161 applies to all derivative instruments within the scope of SFAS 133 “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities” (“SFAS No. 133”) as well as related hedged items, bifurcated derivatives, and nonderivative instruments that are designated and qualify as hedging instruments. Entities with instruments subject to SFAS No. 161 must provide more robust qualitative disclosures and expanded quantitative disclosures. SFAS No. 161 is effective prospectively for financial statements issued for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after November 15, 2008, with early application permitted. The adoption of SFAS No. 161 did not have a material impact on our financial statements.

In May 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 162 “The Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles”. SFAS No. 162 identifies the sources of accounting principles and the framework for selecting the accounting principles to be used. Any effect of applying the provisions of this statement will be reported as a change in accounting principle in accordance with SFAS No. 154 “Accounting Changes and Error Corrections”. SFAS No. 162 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning on or after December 15, 2008. The adoption of SFAS No. 162 did not have a material impact on our financial statements.

In May 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 163 “Accounting for Financial Guarantee Insurance Contracts, an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 60”. The scope of this Statement is limited to financial guarantee insurance (and reinsurance) contracts, as described in this Statement, issued by enterprises included within the scope of Statement 60. Accordingly, this Statement does not apply to financial guarantee contracts issued by enterprises excluded from the scope of Statement 60 or to some insurance contracts that seem similar to financial guarantee insurance contracts issued by insurance enterprises (such as mortgage guaranty insurance or credit insurance on trade receivables). This Statement also does not apply to financial guarantee insurance contracts that are derivative instruments included within the scope of FASB Statement No. 133 “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities”. This Statement will not have any impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In May 2008, the FASB issued Staff Position No. APB 14-1 “Accounting for Convertible Debt Instruments that May be Settled in Cash Upon Conversion”. APB 14-1 requires that the liability and equity components of convertible debt instruments that may be settled in cash upon conversion (including partial cash settlement) be separately accounted for in a manner that reflects an issuer’s nonconvertible debt borrowing rate. The resulting debt discount is amortized over the period the convertible debt is expected to be outstanding as additional non-cash interest expense. APB 14-1 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Retrospective application to all periods presented is required except for instruments that were not outstanding during any of the periods that will be presented in the annual financial statements for the period of adoption but were outstanding during an earlier period. The adoption of APB 14-1 did not have a material impact on our financial statements.

Table of Contents

In June 2008, the FASB issued EITF Issue No. 07-5 “Determining whether an Instrument (or Embedded Feature) is indexed to an Entity’s Own Stock” (“EITF No. 07-5”). This Issue is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early application is not permitted. Paragraph 11(a) of SFAS No. 133 “Accounting for Derivatives and Hedging Activities” (“SFAS No. 133”) specifies that a contract that would otherwise meet the definition of a derivative but is both (a) indexed to the Company’s own stock and (b) classified in stockholders’ equity in the statement of financial position would not be considered a derivative financial instrument. EITF No. 07-5 provides a new two-step model to be applied in determining whether a financial instrument or an embedded feature is indexed to an issuer’s own stock and thus able to qualify for the SFAS No. 133 paragraph 11(a) scope exception. The adoption of EITF No. 07-5 did not have a material impact on our financial statements.

In June 2008, the FASB issued EITF Issue No. 08-4 “Transition Guidance for Conforming Changes to Issue No. 98-5” (“EITF No. 08-4”). The objective of EITF No. 08-4 is to provide transition guidance for conforming changes made to EITF No. 98-5 “Accounting for Convertible Securities with Beneficial Conversion Features or Contingently Adjustable Conversion Ratios”, that result from EITF No. 00-27 “Application of Issue No. 98-5 to Certain Convertible Instruments”, and SFAS No. 150 “Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and Equity”. This Issue is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2008. Early application is permitted. The adoption of EITF No. 08-04 did not have a material impact on our financial statements.

In December 2008, the FASB issued Staff Position No. FAS 132(R)-1 “Employers’ Disclosures about Postretirement Benefit Plan Assets” (“FSP FAS 132(R)-1”). FSP FAS 132(R)-1 requires more detailed disclosures about employers’ plan assets in a defined benefit pension or other postretirement plan, including employers’ investment strategies, major categories of plan assets, concentrations of risk within plan assets, and inputs and valuation techniques used to measure the fair value of plan assets. FSP FAS 132(R)-1 also requires, for fair value measurements using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3), disclosure of the effect of the measurements on changes in plan assets for the period. The disclosures about plan assets required by FSP FAS 132(R)-1 must be provided for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2009. As this pronouncement is only disclosure-related, it will not have an impact on the financial position and results of operations.

In April 2009, the FASB issued Staff Position No. FAS 107-1 and APB No. 28-1 “Interim Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments” (“FSP FAS No. 107-1 and APB Opinion No. 28-1”). FSP FAS No. 107-1 and APB Opinion No. 28-1 requires fair value disclosures for financial instruments that are not reflected in the condensed consolidated balance sheets at fair value. Prior to the issuance of FSP FAS No. 107-1 and APB Opinion No. 28-1, the fair values of those assets and liabilities were disclosed only once each year. With the issuance of FSP FAS No. 107-1 and APB Opinion No. 28-1, the Company will now be required to disclose this information on a quarterly basis, providing quantitative and qualitative information about fair value estimates for all financial instruments not measured in the condensed consolidated balance sheets at fair value. FSP FAS No. 107-1 and APB Opinion No. 28-1 will be effective for interim reporting periods that end after June 15, 2009. As this pronouncement is only disclosure-related, it will not have an impact on the financial position and results of operations.

NOTE 4. RESTATEMENT AND RECLASSIFICATION

(a) Restatement of Financial Results

On October 10, 2008, the Company filed a Current Report on Form 8-K to announce that the Company’s Board of Directors, based upon the consideration of issues addressed in the SEC review and the recommendation of the Audit Committee, determined that the Company should restate its previously issued consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2007 and unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for the interim periods ended March 31, 2008 and June 30, 2008.

The restatement adjustments corrected the accounting errors arising from its misapplication of accounting policies to the discount associated with the beneficial conversion feature attributed to the issuance of the 3% convertible promissory notes in 2007. The Company initially amortized the discount according to EITF Issue No. 98-5 “Accounting for Convertible Securities with Beneficial Conversion Features or Contingently Adjustable Conversion Ratio”, which stated that discount resulting from allocation of proceeds to the beneficial conversion feature should be recognized as interest expense over the minimum period from the date of issuance to the date of earliest conversion. As the notes are convertible at the date of issuance, the Company fully amortized such discount through interest expense at the date of issuance accordingly. However, according to Issue 6 of EITF Issue No. 00-27 “Application of Issue No. 98-5 to Certain Convertible Instruments”, EITF Issues No. 98-5 should be modified to require the discount related to the beneficial conversion feature to be accreted from the date of issuance to the stated redemption date regardless of when the earliest conversion date occurs using the effective interest method. The restatement adjustments were to reflect the retrospective application of the Issue 6 of EITF Issue No. 00-27.

Table of Contents

The restatement affected our previously reported non-cash interest expense, net loss, long-term debt and stockholders’ equity but had no effects on our cash flow. There was no change to each subtotal (operating, investing and financing activities) in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of cash flows as a result of the restatement. Certain balances related to line items within certain cash flows were corrected as part of the restatement. The restatement in the condensed consolidated financial statements as of March 31, 2008 and for the three months ended March 31, 2008 is as follows:

For the three months ended March 31, 2008	As Previously Reported			Restatement Adjustments			As Restated

Total stockholder’s equity	$	9,127,580		$	15,102,206		$	24,229,786

(b) Reclassification

To better present the results of the Company, the “by function of expense” method for the presentation of the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss has been adopted. Comparative amounts for prior periods have been reclassified in order to achieve a consistent presentation.

In addition, the Company completed the disposal of travel network during the year ended December 31, 2008. As a result of the disposal, the condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company reflect travel network operation as discontinued operations for all presented periods. Accordingly, revenues and costs and expenses of travel network have been excluded from the respective accounts in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. The net operating results of the discontinued operations have been reported, net of applicable income taxes, as “Net income from Discontinued Operations, Net of Income Taxes”. For details, please refer to Note 15 – Discontinued Operations.

The above reclassification does not have an effect on net loss and net loss per share.

Warrants and Beneficial Conversion Features

The fair values of the financial instruments associated with warrants of both 12% convertible promissory note and 3% convertible promissory notes were determined utilizing Black-Scholes option pricing model, which is consistent with the Company’s historical valuation methods. The following assumptions and estimates were used in the Black-Scholes option pricing model: (1) 12% convertible promissory note: volatility of 182%; an average risk-free interest rate of 3.52%; dividend yield of 0%; and an expected life of 2 years, (2) 3% convertible promissory notes: volatility of 47%; an average risk-free interest rate of 3.30%; dividend yield of 0%; and an expected life of 3.5 years.

Table of Contents

Both the warrants and embedded conversion features issued in connection with 12% convertible promissory note and 3% convertible promissory notes meet the criteria of EITF 00-19 “Accounting for Derivative Financial Instruments Indexed to, and Potentially Settled in, a Company's Own Stock” for equity classification and also met the other criteria in paragraph 11(a) of SFAS 133 “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities”. Accordingly, the conversion features do not require derivative accounting. The intrinsic value of beneficial conversion feature is calculated according to EITF Issue No. 98-5 “Accounting for Convertible Securities with Beneficial Conversion Features or Contingently Adjustable Conversion Ratio” and EITF Issue No. 00-27 “Application of Issue No. 98-5 to Certain Convertible Instruments”. For 3% convertible promissory note, as the effective conversion price after allocating a portion of the proceeds to the warrants was less than the Company’s market price of common stock at commitment date, it was considered to have a beneficial conversion feature while for the 12% convertible promissory note, no beneficial conversion feature existed. The value of beneficial conversion feature is recorded as a reduction in the carrying value of the convertible promissory notes against additional paid-in capital. As the 3% convertible promissory notes has stated redemption date, the respective debt discount being equal to the value of beneficial conversion feature of $15,757,575 is amortized over the term of the notes from the respective date of issuance using the effective yield method.

(“Chengtian”), pursuant to which, a certain office premises located in Beijing was leased from Chengtian to NCN Huamin for a term of three years, commencing April 1, 2008. On December 30, 2008, NCN Huamin issued a notice to Chengtian to terminate the rental agreement effective on December 31, 2008, as Chengtian had breached several provisions as stated in the rental agreement and refused to take any remedial actions. On January 14, 2009, NCN Huamin received a notice from Beijing Arbitration Commission that Chengtian, as plaintiff, had initiated a lawsuit against NCN Huamin seeking an aggregate of approximately $505,000 for unpaid rental-related expense plus accrued interest as well as compensation for unilateral termination of the rental contract. On February 25, 2009, NCN Huamin counter-claimed for breach of rental contract against Chengtian and asserted to claim an aggregate of approximately $155,000 from Chengtian for overpayment of rental expenses and compensation for Chengtian’s breach of contract.

At present, the outcome of this lawsuit cannot be reasonably predicted. The Company does not believe that the outcome of this pending litigation will have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements, or results of operations.

The allocated proceeds to these warrants were $5,810,000 in aggregate which were recorded as reduction in the carrying value of the notes against additional paid-in capital. As the effective conversion price after allocating a portion of the proceeds to the warrants was less than the Company’s market price of common stock at commitment date, it was considered to have a beneficial conversion feature with value of $11,030,303 recorded as a reduction in the carrying value of the notes against additional paid-in capital. Please refer to Note 10 – Convertible Promissory Notes and Warrants for details.

NOTE 13. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

During the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, the Company did not enter into any material transactions or series of transactions that would be considered material in which any officer, director or beneficial owner of 5% or more of any class of the Company’s capital stock, or any immediate family member of any of the preceding persons, had a direct or indirect material interest.

NOTE 14. NET INCOME (LOSS) PER COMMON SHARE

Net loss per share information for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008 was as follows:

The diluted net loss per common share is the same as the basic net loss per common share for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008 as the ordinary shares to be issued under stock options and warrants outstanding are anti-dilutive and are therefore excluded from the computation of diluted net loss per common share. The securities that could potentially dilute basic net income (loss) per common share in the future that were not included in the computation of diluted net income (loss) per common share because of anti-dilutive effect as of March 31, 2009 and 2008 were summarized as follows:

As of March 31, 2009, the number of potential common equivalent shares associated with warrants issued for services was nil, which was related to a warrant to purchase 100,000 common stock issued by the Company to a consultant in 2006 for service rendered at an exercise price of $0.70, which expired in August 2016.

NOTE 15. DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

In September 2008, the Company disposed of its entire travel network which was classified as one of the Company’s business segments in order to focus on its media business. Accordingly, the Company entered into stock purchase agreements to dispose of its entire travel network which included the sale of NCN Management Services Group (including Tianma) and NCN Landmark Group.

The Company treated the sale of entire travel network as discontinued operations. Accordingly, revenues, costs and expenses of the discontinued operations have been excluded from the respective captions in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. The net operating results of the discontinued operations have been reported, net of applicable income taxes, as “Net Income from Discontinued Operations, Net of Income Taxes”.

Summary operating results for the discontinued operations for travel network were as follows:

	For the three months ended March 31, 2009 (Unaudited)		For the three months ended March 31, 2008 (Unaudited)
Revenues	$	-	$	8,458,482

NOTE 16. BUSINESS SEGMENTS FROM CONTINUING OPERATIONS

NOTE 17. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

On April 2, 2009, the Company entered into a new financing arrangement with the holders of the 3% Convertible Promissory Notes and Warrants and certain other investors.

Table of Contents

Pursuant to a note exchange and option agreement, dated April 2, 2009, between the Company and Keywin Holdings Limited ( “Keywin”), Keywin exchanged the 3% Convertible Promissory Notes in the principal amount of $45,000,000, and all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, for 307,035,463 shares of the Company’s common stock and an option to purchase an aggregate of 122,814,185 shares of the Company’s common stock, for an aggregate purchase price of $2,000,000, exercisable for a three-month period commencing on April 2, 2009.

Pursuant to a note exchange agreement, dated April 2, 2009, among the Company and the Investors, the parties agreed to cancel the 3% Convertible Promissory Notes in the principal amount of $5,000,000 held by the Investors (including all accrued and unpaid interest thereon), and all of the Warrants, in exchange for the Company’s issuance of new 1% Unsecured Senior Convertible Promissory Notes due 2012 in the principal amount of $5,000,000 (the “New Notes”). The New Notes bear interest at 1% per annum, payable semi-annually in arrears, mature on April 1, 2012, and are convertible at any time into shares of our common stock at an initial conversion price of $0.02326 per share, subject to customary anti-dilution adjustments. In addition, in the event of a default, the holders will have the right to redeem the New Notes at 110% of the principal amount, plus any accrued and unpaid interest. The parties also agreed to terminate the security agreement and release all security interests arising out of the Purchase Agreement and the 3% Convertible Promissory Notes.

In connection with the issuance of the New Notes, the Company agreed to provide Keywin and the Investors certain registration rights in respect of the Company’s common stock issued to Keywin, issuable upon conversion of the option issued to Keywin and issuable upon conversion of the New Notes, pursuant to a Registration Rights Agreement, dated April 2, 2009, among the Company, the Investors and Keywin.

On April 2, 2009, the Company also entered into a Letter Agreement and Termination of Investor Rights Agreement with the Investors and Keywin (the “Letter Agreement”), pursuant to which the parties agreed to terminate the Investor Rights Agreement, dated November 19, 2007, entered into between the Company and the Investors in connection with the Purchase Agreement.

Pursuant to the Letter Agreement, the Company also agreed to provide certain co-sale rights to the Investors. In the event that Keywin, its affiliates and/or any of the officers or directors of the Company (collectively, the “Controlling Stockholders”) propose to transfer, sell, assign or otherwise dispose of, directly or indirectly, any of its or their securities in the Company (the “Selling Controlling Stockholder”) in a transaction which, together with previous transfers or sales, would constitute a Change in Control (as defined in the Letter Agreement), then each of the Investors (and their assigns) will have the right to sell, at their sole election, together with such Selling Controlling Stockholder, up to their entire interest in the Company (including either the New Notes or the securities issuable upon conversion of the New Notes), except that any such co-sale must be on the same terms and conditions agreed to by the Selling Controlling Stockholder.

Pursuant to the Letter Agreement, the parties also agreed to certain limitations on conversion of the New Notes. The Investors agreed that they would not convert, and the Company agreed that it would not issue any shares of its common stock upon any attempted conversion or exercise of, any portion of the New Notes, if after giving effect to such conversion, the Investors (together with their affiliates) collectively would have acquired, through the conversion of the New Notes or otherwise, beneficial ownership of a number of shares of the Company’s common stock in excess of 9.99% of the aggregate number of shares of common stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to such conversion or exercise.

On April 6, 2009, in connection with the above new financing arrangement, an aggregate of 307,035,463 shares of the Company’s common stock with par value of $0.001 each were issued to Keywin accordingly.

ITEM 2.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

Cautionary Statements

The following management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations is based upon and should be read in conjunction with the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in “Part I – Financial Information, Item 1. Financial Statement”. All amounts are expressed in U.S. dollars.

Overview

Our mission is to become a nationwide leader in providing out-of-home advertising in China, primarily serving the needs of branded corporate customers. We seek to acquire rights to install and operate roadside advertising panels and mega-size advertising panels in the major cities in China. In most cases, we will be responsible for installing advertising panels, although in some cases, advertising panels might have already been installed and we will be responsible for operating and maintaining the panels. Once the advertising panels are put into operation, we sell advertising airtime to our customers directly. Since late 2006, we have been operating an advertising network of roadside LED digital video panels, mega-size LED digital video billboards and light boxes in major Chinese cities. LED (known as “Light Emitting Diode”) technology has evolved to become a new and popular form of advertising in China, capable of delivering crisp, super-bright images both indoors and outdoors.

Our net advertising revenues were $185,149 and $584,167 for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008 respectively. Our net loss was $3,847,469 and $8,444,850 for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008. Our results of operations were negatively affected by a variety of factors, which led to less than expected revenues and cash inflows during the first quarter of 2009, including the following:

·	The rising costs to acquire advertising rights due to competition among bidders for those rights;

·	Delays in obtaining government approvals for panel installation due to the government’s focus on fighting snow storms in different provinces in the early months of 2008;

·	Slower than expected consumer acceptance of the digital form of advertising media;

·	Strong competition from other media companies; and

Slowing demand due to the worldwide financial crisis and deteriorating economic conditions in China, leading many customers to cut their advertising budget. The impact of the reduction in the pace of our advertising spending is expected to be more significant on our new digital form of media than traditional advertising platforms.

To address these unfavorable market conditions, in the latter half of 2008, we undertook drastic cost-cutting measures including reduction of our workforce, rentals, as well as reductions to our selling and marketing expenses and other general and administrative expenses. In addition, the commercial viability of each of our concession right contracts was re-assessed. Some commercially non-viable concession right contracts were terminated as a result of this re-assessment and management has also successfully negotiated some reductions in advertising operating right fees under existing contracts. The outcome of these cost reduction measures has been reflected in our financial results. We will continue to strictly control our operating costs for the foreseeable future. We will also continue to allocate more resources to those commercially viable projects as well as explore new prominent advertising related projects.

For more information relating to our business, please see the section entitled “Business” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2008 as filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission on March 27, 2009.

Recent Developments

Restructuring of Convertible Debt

On November 19, 2007, we entered into a Note and Warrant Purchase Agreement, as amended, or the Purchase Agreement, with our subsidiary Quo Advertising and affiliated investment funds of Och-Ziff Capital Management Group, or the Investors, pursuant to which we agreed to issue in three tranches, 3% Senior Secured Convertible Notes, due June 30, 2011, in the aggregate principal amount of up to $50,000,000, or the “Notes”, and warrants to acquire an aggregate amount of 34,285,715 shares of our Common Stock, or the Warrants. On November 19, 2007, we issued Notes in the aggregate principal amount of $6,000,000, Warrants to purchase shares of our common stock at $2.50 per share and Warrants to purchase shares of our common stock at $3.50 per share. On November 28, 2007, we issued Notes in the aggregate principal amount of $9,000,000, Warrants to purchase shares of our common stock at $2.50 per share and Warrants to purchase shares of our common stock at $3.50 per share.

On January 31, 2008, we amended and restated the previously issued Notes and issued to the Investors 3% Senior Secured Convertible Notes in the aggregate principal amount of $50,000,000, or the Amended and Restated Notes, Warrants to purchase shares of our common stock at $2.50 per share and Warrants to purchase shares of our common stock at $3.50 per share, or the Third Closing. In connection with the Third Closing, the parties entered into the First Amendment to the Purchase Agreement, dated as of January 31, 2008, to, among other things, establish additional funding channels between the Company and its subsidiaries in China and provide for certain other modifications in connections with the Third Closing. Concurrently with the Third Closing, we loaned substantially all the proceeds from the Amended and Restated Notes to our wholly-owned direct subsidiary, NCN Group, and such loan was evidenced by an intercompany note issued by NCN Group in favor of the Company, or the NCN Group Note. In connection with the Amended and Restated Notes, we entered into a Security Agreement, dated as of January 31, 2008, or the Security Agreement, pursuant to which we granted to the collateral agent for the benefit of the Investors, a first-priority security interest in certain of our assets, including the NCN Group Note and 66% of the equity interest of NCN Group. In addition, NCN Group and certain of our indirect wholly owned subsidiaries each granted the Company a security interest in certain of the assets of such subsidiaries to, among other things, secure the NCN Group Note and certain related obligations.

On April 2, 2009, we entered into a new financing arrangement with the Investors and certain other investors, memorialized in the following documents.

Note Exchange Agreement

On April 2, 2009, we entered into a Note Exchange Agreement with certain of the Investors, or the Note Exchange Agreement, pursuant to which the parties agreed to cancel Amended and Restated Notes in the principal amount of $5 million held by such Investors (including accrued and unpaid interest thereon), and all the Warrants, in exchange for our issuance of new 1% Unsecured Senior Convertible Notes due 2012 in the principal amount of $5 million, or the New Notes. The New Notes bear interest at 1% per annum, payable semi-annually in arrears, and mature on April 2, 2012. They are convertible at any time into shares of our common stock at an initial conversion price of $0.02326 per share, subject to customary anti-dilution adjustments. In addition, in the event of a default, the holders of the New Notes, or the Note Holders, will have the right to redeem the New Notes at 110% of the principal amount, plus any accrued and unpaid interest. The parties also agreed to terminate the Security Agreement and release all security interests arising out of the Purchase Agreement and the Amended and Restated Notes.

Notes Exchange and Option Agreement

On April 2, 2009, we also entered into a Note Exchange and Option Agreement, or the Note Exchange and Option Agreement, with Keywin Holdings Limited, a transferee of the Investors, Keywin, pursuant to which we agreed to exchange the remaining Amended and Restated Notes in the principal amount of $45 million (including all accrued and unpaid interest thereon) for (i) 307,035,463 shares of our common stock, or the Keywin Shares, and (ii) an option to purchase an aggregate of 122,814,185 shares of our common stock for an aggregate purchase price of $2,000,000, exercisable for a three-month period commencing on April 2, 2009, or the Keywin Option.

Table of Contents

Registration Rights Agreement

In connection with the Note Exchange Agreement and the Note Exchange and Option Agreement, we agreed to provide Keywin and the Note Holders, pursuant to a Registration Rights Agreement, dated April 2, 2009, or the Registration Rights Agreement, among the Company, the Note Holders and Keywin, demand and piggy-back registration rights in respect of the Keywin Shares, shares of our common stock issuable upon exercise of the Keywin Option and shares of our common stock issuable upon conversion of the New Notes.

Letter Agreement and Termination of Investor Rights Agreement

On April 2, 2009, we also entered into a Letter Agreement and Termination of Investor Rights Agreement with the Investors and Keywin, or the Letter Agreement, pursuant to which the parties agreed to terminate the Investor Rights Agreement, dated November 19, 2007, entered into between us and the Investors in connection with the Purchase Agreement.

Pursuant to the Letter Agreement, we also agreed to provide certain co-sale rights to the Investors. In the event that Keywin, its affiliates and/or any of the officers or directors of the Company (collectively, referred to as the Controlling Stockholders) propose to transfer, sell, assign or otherwise dispose of, directly or indirectly, any of its or their securities in the Company in a transaction which, together with previous transfers or sales, would constitute a Change in Control (as defined in the Letter Agreement), then each of the Investors (and their assigns) will have the right to sell, at their sole election, together with such selling Controlling Stockholder, up to their entire interest in the Company (including either the New Notes or the securities issuable upon conversion of the New Notes), except that any such co-sale must be on the same terms and conditions agreed to by the selling Controlling Stockholder.

Pursuant to the Letter Agreement, the parties also agreed to certain limitations on conversion of the New Notes. The Investors agreed that they would not convert, and we agreed that we would not issue any shares of our common stock upon any attempted conversion or exercise of, any portion of the New Notes, if after giving effect to such conversion, the Investors (together with their affiliates) collectively would have acquired, through the conversion of the New Notes or otherwise, beneficial ownership of a number of shares of our common stock in excess of 9.99% of the aggregate number of shares of common stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to such conversion or exercise.

Restatements of Consolidated Financial Statements

On October 10, 2008, we filed a Current Report on Form 8-K to announce that our Board of Directors, based upon the consideration of issues addressed in the SEC review and the recommendation of our Audit Committee, determined that we should restate our previously issued condensed consolidated financial statements for quarterly periods ended March 31, 2008 and June 30, 2008 and consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2007.

The restatement adjustments corrected the accounting errors arising from our misapplication of accounting policies to the discount associated with the beneficial conversion feature attributed to the issuance of the 3% convertible promissory notes in 2007 and 2008. We initially amortized the discount according to EITF Issue No. 98-5, “Accounting for Convertible Securities with Beneficial Conversion Features or Contingently Adjustable Conversion Ratio”, which stated that discount resulting from allocation of proceeds to the beneficial conversion feature should be recognized as interest expense over the minimum period from the date of issuance to the date of earliest conversion. As the notes are convertible at the date of issuance, we fully amortized such discount through interest expense at the date of issuance accordingly. However, according to Issue 6 of EITF Issue No. 00-27 “Application of Issue No. 98-5 to Certain Convertible Instruments”, EITF Issues No. 98-5 should be modified to require the discount related to the beneficial conversion feature to be accreted from the date of issuance to the stated redemption date regardless of when the earliest conversion date occurs using the effective interest method. The restatement adjustments were to reflect the retrospective application of the Issue 6 of EITF Issue No. 00-27.

The aggregate net effect of the restatement was to (1) increase stockholders’ equity by approximately $15.1 million as of March 31, 2008; (2) decrease both non-cash interest expense and net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2008 by approximately $10.4 million. Accordingly, the net loss per common share (basic and diluted) for the three months ended March 31, 2008 decreased from $0.26 to $0.12.

Results of Operations

Comparison of Three Months Ended March 31, 2009 and March 31, 2008

Revenues – In the three months ended March 31, 2009, our revenues were derived from sale of advertising services. Revenues from advertising services for the three months ended March 31, 2009 were $185,149 as compared to $584,167 for the corresponding prior year period, a decrease of 68%. The decrease was mainly attributed to the decrease in the advertising sales orders as a result of the worldwide financial crisis and deteriorating economic conditions in China.

Cost of Advertising Services – Cost of advertising services for the three months ended March 31, 2009 was $452,259, a decrease of 89% compared to $3,961,340 for the corresponding prior year period. This significant decrease was mainly attributable to the decrease in amortization of advertising operating rights fees. The decrease in the amortization of advertising operating rights fees resulted from the termination of commercially non-viable concession right contracts in late 2008 and early 2009 as well as the renegotiation of certain concession advertising operating right fees to a lower price.

Selling and Marketing Expenses – Selling and marketing expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2009 decreased by 74% to $165,986, compared to $640,318 for the same period last year, primarily due to a decrease in advertising services provided by the Company.

General and Administrative Expenses – General and administrative expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2009 decreased by 47% to $1,467,671, compared to $2,776,267 for the corresponding prior year period. The decrease in general and administrative expenses was mainly due to drastic cost cutting measures, including reduction of the Company’s workforce, rental, and other general and administrative expenses, since the latter half of 2008. The write-back of allowance for doubtful debts of $231,985 included in general and administrative expenses also led to the decrease in general and administrative expenses.

Interest Expense – Interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2009 increased to $1,952,346, or by 15%, compared to $1,694,909 for the same period last year. The increase was primarily due to the issuance of $35,000,000 in 3% Convertible Promissory Notes on January 31, 2008, which resulted in only two months’ interest expense during the three-month period ended March 31, 2008, as compared to three months of interest expense during the 2009 period.

Income Taxes – The Company derives all of its income in the PRC and is subject to income tax in the PRC. No income tax was recorded during the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008 as the Company and all of its subsidiaries and variable interest entities operated at a taxable loss during the respective periods.

Net loss from Continuing Operations – The Company incurred a net loss from continuing operations of $3,847,469 for the three months ended March 31, 2009, a decrease of 55% compared to a net loss of $8,479,404 for the corresponding prior year period. The decrease in net loss was driven by several factors, including the decrease in the cost of advertising services, decrease in selling and marketing expenses and decrease in workforce, rental and other general and administrative expenses as a result of our cost cutting measures, all as more particularly described above.

Discontinued Operations

In 2008, our Board of Directors determined that it was in the best interests of the Company to focus on developing its media business and to explore ways of divesting its travel business. In September 2008, we sold our entire non-media business division, which included the sale of NCN Management Services Group (including Tianma) and NCN Landmark Group.

We treated the sales of entire travel network as discontinued operations. Accordingly, revenues, costs and expenses of the discontinued operations have been excluded from the respective captions in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. Summary operating results for the discontinued operations for travel network as follows:

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of March 31, 2009, we had cash of $5,558,927, compared to $7,717,131 as of December 31, 2008, a decrease of $2,158,204. The decrease was mainly attributable to the cash utilized by operating activities.

Operating Activities

Net cash utilized by operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2009 was $2,158,479, as compared with $9,073,783 for the corresponding prior year period. The decrease in net cash used in operating activities was mainly attributable to the decrease in net loss as a result of our drastic cost-cutting measures and the decrease in the payments for prepaid expenses and other current assets.

Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2009 was $6,958, compared with $5,256,633 for the corresponding prior year period. The decrease was mainly attributable to less equipment being purchased and no acquisitions being completed during the three months ended March 31, 2009. For the three months ended March 31, 2008, the investing activities consisted primarily of the purchase of equipment related to our media business and costs associated with the acquisition of Cityhorizon BVI.

Financing Activities

Net cash provided by financing activities was $nil for the three months ended March 31, 2009, compared with $28,900,000 for the same period last year. For the three months ended March 31, 2008, the financing activities consisted of the issuance of $35,000,000 in 3% Convertible Promissory Notes, offset by $5,000,000 paid to redeem the outstanding 12% convertible promissory note due May 2008.

Capital Expenditures

During the three months ended March 31, 2009, we acquired assets of $52,488, which were financed through proceeds from the issuance of convertible promissory notes.

Due to the unexpected unfavorable market conditions described above, cash inflows from advertising revenues were less than we expected. We will have to raise additional funds in order to further expand our media network, though we should be able to satisfy our requirements during the next 12 months if we scale down our operations. Because we presently have only limited revenue from operations, we intend to continue to rely primarily on financing through the issuance of our equity and debt securities to satisfy future capital requirements to enable us to finance ongoing operations. There can be no assurance that we will be able to enter into such agreements. Current global financial conditions and unfavorable conditions in our existing notes described above make securing a financing difficult to achieve. Failure to raise additional funds would have a material adverse effect on our financial condition. Furthermore, the issuance of equity or debt securities which are or may become convertible into equity securities in connection with such financing could result in substantial additional dilution to the stockholders.

To address our cash constraints, our management will continue to strictly control our operating costs. We will also continue to allocate resources to commercially viable projects as well as explore new prominent advertising related projects.

Advertising Operating Rights Fees

Advertising operating rights fees are the major cost of our advertising revenue. To maintain the advertising operating rights, we are required to pay advertising operating rights fees in accordance with payment terms set forth in contracts we entered into with various parties. These parties generally require us to prepay advertising operating rights fees for a period of time. The details of our advertising operating rights fees as of March 31, 2009 and 2008 were as follows:

	Three Months Ended
	March 31, 2009 (Unaudited)		March 31, 2008 (Unaudited)
Payment for prepayments for advertising operating rights	$	312,622	$	7,377,894
Settlement of accrued advertising operating rights		700,000		-
Total payment	$	1,012,622	$	7,377,894

Amortization of prepayments for advertising operating rights	$	229,292	$	3,496,248
Accrued advertising operating rights fee recognized		83,568		104,401
Total advertising operating rights fee recognized	$	312,860	$	3,600,649

	As of March 31, 2009		As of December 31, 2008
Prepayments for advertising operating rights, net	$	501,442	$	418,112
Accrued advertising operating rights fees	$	116,568	$	733,000

For future advertising operating rights commitment under non-cancellable advertising operating right contracts, please refer to the table under the following Section – “Contractual Obligations and Commercial Commitments”.

We financed the above payments through the issuance of convertible promissory notes in the principal amount of $50 million. As we currently generate limited revenue from our media operation, in addition to the proceeds from the issuance of convertible promissory notes, we intend to continue to raise funds through the issuance of equity and debt securities to satisfy future payment requirements. There can be no assurance that we will be able to enter into such agreements.

In the event that advertising operating rights fees cannot be paid in accordance with the payment terms set forth in our contracts, we may not be able to continue to operate our advertising panels and our ability to generate revenue will be adversely affected. As such, failure to raise additional funds would have significant negative impact on our financial condition.

Contractual Obligations and Commercial Commitments

The following table presents certain payments due under contractual obligations with minimum firm commitments as of March 31, 2009:

	Payments due by period
	Total		Less than 1 year		1-3 years		3-5 years		More than 5 years
Long-term Debt Obligations		50,000,000		-		50,000,000		-		-
Operating Lease Obligations		391,100		210,823		180,277		-		-
Annual Advertising Operating Rights Fee Obligations		3,876,440		1,295,102		1,805,023		695,691		80,624
Purchase Obligations		18,000		18,000		-		-		-

Long-term Debt Obligations. We issued an aggregate of $50,000,000 in 3% Convertible Promissory Notes in late 2007 and early 2008 to our investors. Such 3% Convertible Promissory Notes mature on June 30, 2011. For details, please refer to the notes to financial statements.

Operating Lease Obligations. We have entered into various non-cancelable operating lease agreements for our offices and staff quarter. Such operating leases do not contain significant restrictive provisions.

Annual Advertising Operating Rights Fee Obligations. Since November 2006, the Company, through its subsidiaries, NCN Media Services Limited, Quo Advertising, Xuancaiyi, Bona and Botong, has acquired rights from third parties to operate roadside advertising panels and mega-size advertising panels whose lease terms expiring between 2009 and 2024.

Purchase Obligations. We are obligated to make payments under non-cancellable contractual arrangements with our vendors, principally for constructing our advertising panels.

Critical Accounting Policies

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires our management to make assumptions, estimates and judgments that affect the amounts reported, including the notes thereto, and related disclosures of commitments and contingencies, if any. We have identified certain accounting policies that are significant to the preparation of our financial statements. These accounting policies are important for an understanding of our financial condition and results of operation. Critical accounting policies are those that are most important to the portrayal of our financial conditions and results of operations and require management’s difficult, subjective, or complex judgment, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain and may change in subsequent periods. Certain accounting estimates are particularly sensitive because of their significance to financial statements and because of the possibility that future events affecting the estimate may differ significantly from management’s current judgments. There have been no material changes to the critical accounting policies previously disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2008.

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

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

ITEM 3.

QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.

The follow discussion about our market risk disclosures involves forward-looking statements. Actual results could differ from those projected in the forward-looking statements. We are exposed to market risk related to changes in interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates and inflation rates. We do not use derivative financial instruments for speculative or trading purposes.

Interest Rate Risk

We have no significant interest-bearing assets and our convertible promissory notes are fixed rate securities. Our exposure to market risk for changes in interest rates relates primarily to the interest income generated by our cash deposits in banks. We have not been exposed, nor do we anticipate being exposed, to material risks due to changes in interest rates. However, our future interest income may be different from our expectations due to changes in interest rates.

Foreign Currency Exchange Risk

While our reporting currency is the U.S. dollar, our consolidated revenues and consolidated costs and expenses are substantially denominated in RMB. As a result, we are exposed to foreign exchange risk as our revenues and results of operations may be affected by fluctuations in the exchange rate between U.S. dollars and RMB. If the RMB depreciates against the U.S. dollar, the value of our RMB revenues, earnings and assets as expressed in our U.S. dollar financial statements will decline. If the RMB appreciates against U.S. dollars, any new RMB-denominated investments or expenditures will be more costly to us. Assets and liabilities are translated at exchange rates at the balance sheet dates and revenue and expenses are translated at the average exchange rates and stockholders’ equity is translated at historical exchange rates. Any resulting translation adjustments are not included in determining net income but are included in determining other comprehensive income, a component of stockholders’ equity. To date, we have not entered into any hedging transactions in an effort to reduce our exposure to foreign currency exchange risk.

Table of Contents

The value of the RMB against the U.S. dollar and other currencies is affected by, among other things, changes in China’s political and economic conditions. Since July 2005, the RMB has not been pegged to the U.S. dollar. Although the People’s Bank of China regularly intervenes in the foreign exchange market to prevent significant short-term fluctuations in the exchange rate, the RMB may appreciate or depreciate significantly in value against the U.S. dollar in the medium to long term. Moreover, it is possible that in the future, PRC authorities may lift restrictions on fluctuations in the RMB exchange rate and lessen intervention in the foreign exchange market.

Inflation Risk

Inflationary factors such as increases in the costs to acquire advertising rights and overhead costs may adversely affect our operating results. Although we do not believe that inflation has had a material impact on our financial position or results of operations to date, a high rate of inflation in the future may have an adverse effect on our ability to maintain current levels of gross margin and selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenues if the selling prices of our services do not increase with these increased costs.

ITEM 4.

CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act) that are designed to ensure that information that would be required to be disclosed in Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time period specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including to our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

As required by Rule 13a-15 under the Exchange Act, our management, including Mr. Godfrey Hui, our Chief Executive Officer and Mr. Daley Mok, our Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2009. Based on that evaluation, Mr. Hui and Mr. Mok concluded that as of March 31, 2009, and as of the date that the evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures was completed, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to satisfy the objectives for which they are intended.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

We regularly review our system of internal control over financial reporting and make changes to our processes and systems to improve controls and increase efficiency, while ensuring that we maintain an effective internal control environment. Changes may include such activities as implementing new, more efficient systems, consolidating activities, and migrating processes.

During the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2009, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II

OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1.

LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.

On March 20, 2008, our wholly-owned subsidiary, NCN Huamin, entered into a rental agreement with Beijing Chengtian Zhihong TV & Film Production Co., Ltd., or Chengtian, pursuant to which a certain office premises located in Beijing was leased from Chengtian to NCN Huamin for a term of three years, commencing April 1, 2008. On December 30, 2008, NCN Huamin issued a notice to Chengtian to terminate the rental agreement effective on December 31, 2008 due to the fact that Chengtian had breached several provisions of the rental agreement and refused to take any remedial actions. On January 14, 2009, NCN Huamin received a notice from Beijing Arbitration Commission that Chengtian, as plaintiff, had initiated a lawsuit against NCN Huamin seeking an aggregate of approximately $505,000 for unpaid rental-related expenses, plus accrued interest, as well as compensation for unilateral termination of the rental contract. On February 25, 2009, NCN Huamin counter-claimed for breach of rental contract against Chengtian, seeking an aggregate of approximately $155,000 from Chengtian for overpayment of rental expenses and compensation for Chengtian’s breach of contract. At present, the outcome of this lawsuit cannot be reasonably predicted. We do not believe that the outcome of this pending litigation will have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements, or our results of operations.
