PART I

 

ITEM 1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

Turbine Truck Engines, Inc. was incorporated in Delaware on November 27, 2000. On February 20, 2008, the Company was re-domiciled to the State of Nevada. On December 15, 2000, we acquired the option rights for an exclusive License from Alpha Engines Corporation (“Alpha”) for manufacturing and marketing heavy duty highway truck engines utilizing Alpha’s “Detonation Cycle Gas Turbine Engine” (“DCGT”) technology embodied in U.S. Patent No. 6,000,214 and other proprietary technology and rights owned by Alpha including Marketing Survey Data in the highway trucking industry. We exercised our option and acquired the licensing rights on July 22, 2002. Alpha has completed the design and prototype of a 540 hp engine for use in highway trucks.

AbM AGREEMENT

The Company entered into a contractual agreement (the “Agreement”) dated July 1, 2008 with AbM Engineering, LLC for the purpose of the continued development and testing of the current 540 horsepower DCGT engine developed by Alpha and a 70 horsepower/50kw generator combination. AbM is currently working in a collaborative effort with AMEC’s engineers to modify and test other DCGT engine applications.

Under our Agreement with Alpha, they will continue to consult and advise with AbM Engineering on future development of the 540 horsepower DCGT highway truck engine prototype at AbM’s facilities in Daytona Beach, Florida. We receive ongoing status reports of their progress but do not participate in the design, construction and/or testing of the engine. This new energy efficient detonation cycle gas turbine can be designed and manufactured as a new or replacement engine for all heavy duty trucks that utilize engines ranging from 300 to 1,000 horsepower.

It was our initial intention to solely target 18 wheel class 8 vehicles commonly used for transporting goods throughout the United States for distribution of our engine, however, based on the opportunities presented to the Company in China, the Company now intends to expand that goal by the licensing of other applications of the DCGT engine technology as deemed necessary and appropriate to further the development and commercialization of the engine for different applications.

The Closing Date shall be set by mutual agreement of the parties. The shares will be subject to a restriction on resale for a period of three (3) years. As of the filing date, the sale has not been consummated and no closing date has been set.

PRODUCT STATUS

To date, we have no marketable product but have completed initial testing of the 5th generation prototype. The Company has started demonstrating the engine to investors, has entered into a number of Strategic Alliance Agreements to expand the utilization of the engine, and has begun demonstrating it to potential joint venture partners. The contract with Alpha has been completed and comprehensive testing and development of the 5th generation prototype is now moving forward at AbM Engineering’s facilities. We are currently finalizing plans with ABM to construct our 6th generation prototype. We expect for it to be built by late 1Q 2011 and testing to start in 2Q 2011.

The agreements with GUOHAO, TIANJIN, and BEIJING ROYAL are based on the company building, testing, and demonstrating a prototype that will meet the efficiencies required to commercialize the engine for their respective products. Once the company has demonstrated that it can produce an engine with the power output and efficiencies required, the time line set in the original agreements for the respective companies to fulfill their agreements and fund the company to bring the engine to full commercialization for that product will start at that time.

GOLDEN GATE

In June 2008, the Company issued a Convertible Debenture to Golden Gate Investors, Inc. (the “holder”) in the principal amount of $1,000,000, dated June 6, 2008, pursuant to Rule 506 promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission, for the purpose of accessing necessary funding to continue operations.

Pursuant to the terms of the Debenture, the related Securities Purchase Agreement, Secured Promissory Note and Stock Pledge Agreement, each executed in connection therewith, the Company issued $1,000,000 Convertible Debenture (the “Debenture”) for the payment by Golden Gate of $100,000 in cash and the execution and delivery by Golden Gate of a $900,000 Secured Promissory Note of even date (the “Note”), bearing interest at 8% per annum. As of December 31, 2010, the Company has $255,000 available to draw on the Convertible Debenture.

Table of Contents

The Debenture bears interest at 7.75% per annum, payable monthly, maturing June 30, 2012, and was secured by a Continuing Personal Guaranty, whereby the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and majority shareholder guaranteed the Company’s obligations for a period of eight months. Originally, the Debenture Holder was entitled to convert into common stock of the company at the conversion price equal to the lesser of (i) $0.50, or (ii) 80% of the average of the 3 lowest Volume Weighted Average Prices during the 20 Trading Days prior to Holder’s election to convert, as such terms are defined in the Debenture. Effective January 15, 2010, the agreement was amended with the Holder and the conversion price has a $0.15 fixed floor price that limits the number of common shares that can be issued upon conversion to a fixed amount. The Holder can only convert that amount of the Debenture that has actually been paid for by either cash at closing or principal pre-payments made on the Promissory Note.

Golden Gate’s secured Promissory Note is payable at the rate of 8% per annum with interest, payable monthly and provides for the prepayment of the Note in an amount not less than $200,000 upon the triggering of certain events. It matures on June 30, 2012. During 2010, the Company has drawn $250,000 in proceeds related to the note and converted $253,000 in convertible notes into 1,373,278 common shares. For financial statement purposes, the Securities Purchase Agreement and the Convertible Promissory Note have been netted, as the Company has the legal right of offset.

OUR PRODUCT

Our product is slated to be a new energy-efficient, Detonation Cycle Gas Turbine Engine (“DCGT”) for heavy-duty highway trucks as well as other potential applications. To date, we have no marketable product and will rely on AbM & AMEC and our Strategic Alliance partners to continue the development and testing of a 540 horsepower prototype that will conform to our licensed application. Since our inception, we have continued to raise capital to bring this patented technology closer to where it can be utilized in a common market. The application demanding the most change is the highway trucking market.

Detonation refers to an instant burning of a fuel-air mixture producing an explosion. Cycle refers to the explosion happening in one chamber and then in another chamber, repeating over and over again. Gas is the fuel which is in a gaseous state. Turbine is a rotating wheel or disk connected to a shaft spinning in one direction. This combined process along with the Electromagnetic Isothermal Combustion “(EIC”) process creates the high efficiency, low emission engine that we intend to bring to market.

Alpha has completed the design and prototype of a 540 hp engine for use in highway trucks. Therefore compliance with state and federal regulators will not be a factor until we have an engineered prototype in a test vehicle here in the United States. Alpha completed all research and development in 1997, which resulted in a patent being issued in 1999. Alpha has completed the design for the truck engine. We need to complete the prototype and test an engine that meets our needs using the existing proven technology; however, this takes a considerable amount of money.

Under our Agreement with Alpha, they will continue to consult and advise with AbM Engineering on future development of this 540 horsepower DCGT highway truck engine prototype at AbM’s facilities in Daytona Beach, Florida. We receive ongoing status reports of their progress but do not participate in the design, construction and/or testing of the engine. This new energy efficient detonation cycle gas turbine can be designed and manufactured as a new or replacement engine for all heavy duty trucks that utilize engines ranging from 300 to 1,000 horsepower.

It was our initial intention solely to target 18 wheel class 8 vehicles commonly used for transporting goods throughout the United States for distribution of our engine, however, based on the agreements with the Chinese company’s discussed above, the Company now intends to expand that goal by the licensing of other applications of the DCGT engine technology as deemed necessary and appropriate to further the development and commercialization of the engines.

PATENTS AND LICENSE

Patent #6000214 is a novel patent with a 20-year life from the filing date of December 16, 1997. The patent was based on research and development beginning in 1984, which included the design, construction, and testing of four (4) working prototypes. The patent attorneys were Schoemaker & Mattare Ltd. The inventor will file additional patents to protect any new developments in the engine technology. We will have access to any new patent filings on the highway truck engines as provided for in our licensing agreement.

This patent in its simplicity makes it very unique. A detonation cycle gas turbine engine includes a turbine rotor contained in a housing. The exhaust ports of respective valveless combustion chambers are located on opposite sides of the rotor directing combustion gases toward the turbine. The chambers are connected by a valveless manifold fed with fuel and oxidizer. When combustible gases are detonated by an igniter in one of the combustion chambers, the back pressure from the detonation shuts off the fuel and oxidizer flow to that chamber and redirects the fuel and oxidizer to the opposite chamber, where detonation occurs. The process repeats cyclically. Power is taken off the rotor shaft mechanically or electrically.

The invention utilizes a water wheel as the turbine wheel which has blades that are positively displaced through a blade race by the rapid expansion of gases exiting from combustion chambers via nozzles, rather than pistons or gas turbines.

Our engine has a blower, rather than a compressor, to supply less air per horsepower hour than required by existing gas turbines or piston engines, thereby producing less exhaust gases per horsepower hour.

The blower supplies low pressure air via a single manifold to two combustion chambers simultaneously thereby requiring less work to complete a detonation cycle, resulting in higher thermo mechanical efficiencies than gas turbines or piston engines.

The engine manifolds, combustion chambers, and ignition system has the capability of cyclically detonating fuel-air mixtures without using valves. The engine uses a fuel pump and vaporizers to gasify wet fuels prior to mixing with combustion air in the manifolds to produce complete combustion of all fuel-air mixtures in the detonation process. The engine uses a plasma arc ignition, a visibly constant illuminating plasma flame between two electrodes to detonate fuel-air mixtures and does not require critical ignition timing.

Low pressure air and fuel mixtures are detonated instantaneously–in less than one millisecond–producing high velocity shock waves that kinetically compress inert gases resulting in higher working pressures than the pressures produced in constant pressure heating utilized in gas turbine engines, and Otto and Diesel cycle piston engines.

The detonation cycle engine uses less working fluid and produces less exhaust gas per horsepower hour than Brayton cycle turbines and Otto or Diesel cycle piston engines.

Alpha has developed four working prototypes as described below:

 

  1. First engine was developed in 1987. The engine consisted of one 8-inch diameter, 26-pound turbine wheel, driven by two horizontally opposed combustion chambers. The engine produced 78 horsepower at 12,500 rpm.

 

  2. The second engine was developed in 1989. The engine consisted of two 5-inch diameter, 11-pound turbine wheels mounted on a single shaft, driven by four horizontally opposed combustion chambers. The engine produced 130 horsepower at 14,000 rpm.

 

  3. The third engine was developed in 1991. The engine consisted of two 7-inch diameter, 19.6 pound turbine wheels mounted on a single shaft, driven by four horizontally opposed combustion chambers. The engine produced 256 horsepower at 8,300 rpm.

 

  4. The fourth engine was developed in 1997. The engine consists of four 6-inch diameter, 12 pound turbine wheels mounted on a single shaft, driven by eight horizontally opposed combustion chambers. The engine produces 130 horsepower at 8,400 rpm. This engine is currently used for demonstration and can be seen by appointment.

 

  5. With current data derived from testing previous prototypes, Alpha has designed a 540 horsepower engine that can power a highway truck. Preliminary design concepts estimate the engine will have six 15-inch diameter, 20-pound turbine wheels mounted on a single shaft, driven by 12 horizontally opposed combustion chambers producing 540 horsepower at 3,000 rpm.

The DCGT includes an Electromagnetic Isothermal Combustion (“EIC”) process that powers the engine. The EIC process produces complete combustion of fuel-oxidizer mixtures in cyclic detonations that negate unwanted nitrogen oxide and carbon monoxide emissions. The high pressure gases produced by the detonations drive a unique turbine producing shaft horsepower.

The EIC process enables the DCGT to operate with blower air at low static pressure, negating the necessity of compressing and preheating fuel-oxidizer mixtures prior to combustion. By eliminating the compression of fuel-oxidizer mixtures, the DCGT achieves higher thermal efficiencies in a simplified mechanical structure. The DCGT has the following proprietary and competitive advantages over current diesel, gasoline and gas turbine engines:

 

   

Air cooled - less than 2 pounds per horsepower

 

   

Fewer moving parts - less maintenance

 

   

Flex-fuel and mixed fuels capability

 

   

Operates on all hydrocarbon fuels, hydrogen and syn fuels

 

   

Cold start capability with any fuels

 

   

Burns 30% less fuel “Greenhouse exhaust gases”

 

   

Less nitrogen oxides and carbon monoxide exhaust emissions

 

   

Less hydrocarbon exhaust emissions

 

   

No lube oil, filters or pumps

Alpha has completed basic research, exploratory development, and advanced development with the design, construction and testing of four experimental prototype engines.

Our new energy efficient detonation cycle gas turbine can be designed and manufactured as a new or replacement engine for all heavy duty trucks that utilize engines ranging from 300 to 1,000 horsepower. We are currently exploring additional applications.

We will not require governmental approval until such time as the engine is placed in vehicles for use. Our engine will meet the new more stringent tailpipe emission requirements set forth by the Environmental Protection Agency (“EPA”).

Research and development of our engine was completed in 1997 with patents obtained in 1999. Through testing, we hope to be able to comply with existing and future environmental laws. We intend to supply our fuel efficient, lower emission engine to a marketplace that must comply with more stringent governmental regulations. In each of the last two years, the Company has spent $208,565 (2010) and $108,958 (2009) on research and development.

We acquired our license from Alpha on July 22, 2002. The material terms of the license agreement, as amended, are as follows:

 

  1. $250,000 licensing note payable August 23, 2005 or agreement is terminated

 

  2. Eight percent (8%) of net sales royalty payment after manufacturing and sales commence

 

  3. $250,000 minimum royalty payment each year after licensing note is settled

 

  4. Additional contract fees will be paid to Alpha for design and engineering services.

During the year ended December 31, 2006, the Company issued 125,000 shares of common stock in satisfaction of the $250,000 note payable to Alpha and the accrual of minimum royalty fees began. In addition, during the year ended December 31, 2006, the Company paid $416,667 of royalty fees through the issuance of 100,000 shares of common stock. As of December 31, 2010, the Company has accrued $1,051,500 of royalty fees related to this agreement.

Other than being the licensor and a principal shareholder, we have no affiliation with Alpha.

COMPETITION

The Company has identified seven (7) major engine manufacturers, including Ford, Caterpillar, Cummins, Detroit Diesel, Mack Trucks, Navistar International and Volvo Truck that each manufacture heavy duty truck engines, both gasoline and diesel, which are likely to be the major competitors to our company once our product is ready for market. To the Company’s knowledge, at this time, none of the Company’s major competitors are working on the development of a turbine engine that would be in direct competition to the Company’s engine, and although we would be competing with them for customers, the Company believes that the technological differences between its product and those that are currently on the market, will provide the Company with a market niche that it can expand upon, even in the face of such established competitors.

EMPLOYEES

We presently have four full-time employees. Staffing levels will be determined as we progress and grow. We also plan to add several employees to our staff. The level of employees is primarily contingent on the level of success of an offering. Our board of directors will determine the compensation of all new employees based upon job description.

THIS FILING CONTAINS FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS. THE WORDS “ANTICIPATED,” “BELIEVE,” “EXPECT,” “PLAN,” “INTEND,” “SEEK,” “ESTIMATE,” “PROJECT,” “WILL,” “COULD,” “MAY,” AND SIMILAR EXPRESSIONS ARE INTENDED TO IDENTIFY FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS. THESE STATEMENTS INCLUDE, AMONG OTHERS, INFORMATION REGARDING FUTURE OPERATIONS, FUTURE CAPITAL EXPENDITURES, AND FUTURE NET CASH FLOW. SUCH STATEMENTS REFLECT THE COMPANY’S CURRENT VIEWS WITH RESPECT TO FUTURE EVENTS AND FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE AND INVOLVE RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, GENERAL ECONOMIC AND BUSINESS CONDITIONS, CHANGES IN FOREIGN, POLITICAL, SOCIAL, AND ECONOMIC CONDITIONS, REGULATORY INITIATIVES AND COMPLIANCE WITH GOVERNMENTAL REGULATIONS, THE ABILITY TO ACHIEVE FURTHER MARKET PENETRATION AND ADDITIONAL CUSTOMERS, AND VARIOUS OTHER MATTERS, MANY OF WHICH ARE BEYOND THE COMPANY’S CONTROL. SHOULD ONE OR MORE OF THESE RISKS OR UNCERTAINTIES OCCUR, OR SHOULD UNDERLYING ASSUMPTIONS PROVE TO BE INCORRECT, ACTUAL RESULTS MAY VARY MATERIALLY AND ADVERSELY FROM THOSE ANTICIPATED, BELIEVED, ESTIMATED, OR OTHERWISE INDICATED. CONSEQUENTLY, ALL OF THE FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS MADE IN THIS FILING ARE QUALIFIED BY THESE CAUTIONARY STATEMENTS AND THERE CAN BE NO ASSURANCE OF THE ACTUAL RESULTS OR DEVELOPMENTS.

The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and plan of operations should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and related notes appearing elsewhere herein. This discussion and analysis contains forward-looking statements including information about possible or assumed results of our financial conditions, operations, plans, objectives and performance that involve risk, uncertainties and assumptions. The actual results may differ materially from those anticipated in such forward-looking statements. For example, when we indicate that we expect to increase our product sales and potentially establish additional license relationships, these are forward-looking statements. The words expect, anticipate, estimate or similar expressions are also used to indicate forward-looking statements.

For the year ended December 31, 2010 compared to the year ended December 31, 2009:

Research and Development Costs – During the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, research and development costs totaled $208,565 and $108,958, respectively. The increase of $99,607 was mainly attributable to additional costs incurred for the testing of the DCGT engine in 2010.

Operating Costs – During the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, operating costs totaled $2,121,168 and $1,871,243, respectively. The increase of $249,925 was mainly attributable to a $360,340 increase in payroll expenses due to additional employees, a $197,981 increase in Professional Fees (Accounting, Legal, Public Relations, and Marketing), a $65,732 increase in Travel and Lodging fees related to the Kingtec agreement and an increase of $117,287 in stock based compensation. These increases in expenses were offset by the $482,855 decrease in consulting expenses.

Interest (Income) Expense - Net - During the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009 net interest expense totaled $239,490 and $291,716, respectively. The decrease of $52,226 was primarily due to the Company issuing less convertible debentures to Golden Gate Investors, Inc. of $250,000 in 2010 and $395,000 in 2009.

The net loss for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009 was ($2,569,223) and ($2,271,917), respectively. The increase of $297,306 was mainly attributable to the increase in research and development expenses, operating costs and interest expenses.

Liquidity and capital resources

As shown in the accompanying financial statements, for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009 and since November 27, 2000 (date of inception) through December 31, 2010, the Company has had net losses of $2,569,223, $2,271,917 and $14,133,147, respectively. As of December 31, 2010, the Company has not emerged from the

development stage. In view of these matters, the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the Company’s ability to begin operations and to achieve a level of profitability. However, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to raise capital or begin operations to achieve a level of profitability to continue as a going concern. Since inception, the Company has financed its activities principally from the sale of public equity securities. The Company intends on financing its future development activities and its working capital needs largely from the sale of public equity securities with some additional funding from other traditional financing sources, including term notes and proceeds from sub-licensing agreements until such time that funds provided by operations are sufficient to fund working capital requirements.

As previously mentioned, since inception, we have financed our operations largely from the sale of common stock. From inception through December 31, 2010 we raised cash of approximately $3,442,000 net of issuance costs, through private placements of common stock financings and $745,000 through the issuance of convertible notes payable. Additionally, we have raised net proceeds from stockholder advances of approximately $109,000.

Since our inception through December 31, 2010 we have incurred $3,735,715 of research and development costs. These expenses were principally related to the acquisition of a license agreement in July 2002 in the amount of $2,735,649, which was expensed to research and development costs for the DCGT technology and general and administrative expenses.

We have incurred significant net losses and negative cash flows from operations since our inception. As of December 31, 2010, we had an accumulated deficit of $14,133,147 and working capital deficit of $844,979.

We anticipate that cash used in product development and operations, especially in the marketing, production and sale of our products, will increase significantly in the future.

On June 6, 2008, the Company issued a 7 3/4 Convertible Debenture to Golden Gate Investors, Inc. in the principal amount of $1,000,000, pursuant to Rule 506 promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission, for the purpose of accessing necessary funding to continue operations.

Pursuant to the terms of the Debenture, the related Securities Purchase Agreement, secured Promissory Note and Stock Pledge Agreement, each executed in connection therewith, the Company issued $1,000,000 Convertible Debenture (the “Debenture”) for the payment by Golden Gate of $100,000 in cash and the execution and delivery by Golden Gate of a $900,000 Secured Promissory Note of even date (the “Note”), bearing interest at 8% per annum.

The Debenture bears interest at 7.75% per annum, payable monthly, maturing June 30, 2012, and is secured by a Continuing Personal Guaranty by Michael H. Rouse, the Company’s CEO. Originally, the Holder was entitled to convert into common stock of the company at the conversion price equal to the lesser of (i) $0.50, or (ii) 80% of the average of the 3 lowest Volume Weighted Average Prices during the 20 Trading Days prior to Holder’s election to convert, as such terms are defined in the Debenture. Effective January 15, 2010 the agreement was amended with the Holder and the conversion price having a $0.15 fixed floor price that limits the number of common shares upon conversion of a fixed amount. The Holder can only convert that amount of the Debenture that has actually been paid for by either cash at closing or principal pre-payments made on the Promissory Note.

Golden Gate’s secured Promissory Note is payable at the rate of 8% per annum, payable monthly and provides that for the prepayment of the Note in an amount not less than $200,000 monthly upon the happening of certain events. It matures on June 30, 2012. During 2010 and since inception, the Company has drawn $250,000 and $745,000, respectively, in proceeds related to the note. During 2010 and since inception, the Holder has converted $253,000 and $722,000 in convertible notes into 1,373,278 and 7,006,818 common shares, respectively.

Provided certain conditions are met, pursuant to the terms of the Securities Purchase Agreement executed between the parties, Golden Gate or its assigns has the right to enter into 4 additional Debentures with the Company upon similar terms. The Company incurred no additional expenses in this matter and the Company is utilizing the proceeds for its on-going working capital needs.

We will be dependent upon our existing cash, together with anticipated net proceeds from a public offering and future debt issuances and private placements of common stock and potential license fees, to finance our planned operations through the next 12 months. We will continue to proceed in the design and testing phase of the DCGT

engine during the next 12 months and will require additional funding to continue operations. Based on our anticipated growth, we plan to add several employees to our staff.

Additional capital may not be available when required or on favorable terms. If adequate funds are not available, we may be required to significantly reduce or refocus our operations or to obtain funds through arrangements that may require us to relinquish rights to certain or potential markets, either of which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. To the extent that additional capital is raised through the sale of equity or convertible debt securities, the issuance of such securities would result in ownership dilution to our existing stockholders.

The Company may receive proceeds in the future from the exercise of warrants and options outstanding as of December 31, 2010 in accordance with the following schedule:

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 is material to investors.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities 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.

We believe that the following critical policies affect our more significant judgments and estimates used in preparation of our financial statements.

We account for stock option grants in accordance with US GAAP. Stock-based compensation cost recognized during the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009 includes compensation cost for all share-based payments granted prior to, but not yet vested as of January 1, 2006 and compensation cost for all share-based payments granted subsequent to January 1, 2006, based on their relative grant date fair values estimated in accordance with US GAAP. The Company recognizes compensation expenses on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period.

Determination of the fair values of stock option grants at the grant date requires judgment, including estimating the expected term of the relevant grants and the expected volatility of the Company’s stock. Additionally, management must estimate the amount of stock option grants that are expected to be forfeited. The expected term of options granted represents the period of time that the options are expected outstanding and is based on historical experience of similar grants, giving consideration to the contractual terms of the grants, vesting schedules and expectations of future employee behavior. The expected volatility is based upon our historical market price at consistent points in a period equal to the expected life of the options. Expected forfeitures are based on historical experience and expectations of future employee behavior.

Furniture and equipment are recorded at cost and depreciated on a declining balance and straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives, principally two to seven years. Accelerated methods are used for tax depreciation. Maintenance and repairs are charged to operations when incurred. Betterments and renewals are capitalized. When furniture and equipment are sold or otherwise disposed of, the asset account and related accumulated depreciation account are relieved, and any gain or loss is included in operations.

The Company has incurred deferred offering costs in connection with raising additional capital through the sale of its common stock. These costs are capitalized and charged against additional paid-in capital when common stock is issued. If there is no issuance of common stock, the costs incurred are charged to operations.

Research and development costs are charged to operations when incurred and are included in operating expenses.

Turbine Truck Engines, Inc.

(A Development Stage Enterprise)

DeLand, Florida

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Turbine Truck Engines, Inc. (a development stage enterprise) (“the Company”) as of December 31, 2010 and 2009 and the related statements of operations, changes in stockholders’ deficit, and cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009 and the period from November 27, 2000 (Date of Inception) through December 31, 2010. These financial statements are the responsibility of the management of Turbine Truck Engines, Inc. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the 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 expressed no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Turbine Truck Engines, Inc. as of December 31, 2010 and 2009 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009 and the period from November 27, 2000 (Date of Inception) through December 31, 2010 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2, the Company incurred a net loss of $2,569,223 during the year ended December 31, 2010 and has an accumulated deficit of $14,133,147 since inception and has a working capital deficit of $844,979 as of December 31, 2010. These factors, among others, raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 2. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Turbine Truck Engines, Inc.

(A Development Stage Enterprise)

Notes to Financial Statements

For the Years Ended December 31, 2010 and 2009,

and the Period November 27, 2000 (Date of Inception)

through December 31, 2010

 

1. Background Information

Turbine Truck Engines, Inc. (the “Company”) is a development stage enterprise that was incorporated in the state of Delaware on November 27, 2000, and converted to a Nevada corporation in To date, the Company’s activities have been limited to raising capital, organizational matters, and the structuring of its business plan. The corporate headquarters is located in Paisley, Florida. The Company’s planned line of business will be the design, development, and testing of turbine truck engine technology licensed through Alpha Engines Corporation (“Alpha”). Alpha owns the patents to a new gas turbine engine system called Detonation Cycle Gas Turbine Engine. If the Company can successfully demonstrate a highway truck engine using the technology, the Company intends to form a joint venture with a major heavy duty highway truck manufacturer to manufacture, market, and sell turbine truck engines for use in heavy duty highway trucks throughout the United States.

 

2. Going Concern

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. For the year ended December 31, 2010 and since November 27, 2000 (date of inception) through December 31, 2010, the Company has had a net loss of $2,569,223 and $14,133,147, respectively. As of December 31, 2010, the Company has not emerged from the development stage and has a working capital deficit of $844,979. In view of these matters, the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the Company’s ability to begin operations and to achieve a level of profitability. Since inception, the Company has financed its activities principally from the sale of public equity securities. The Company intends on financing its future development activities and its working capital needs largely from the sale of public equity securities with some additional funding from other traditional financing sources, including term notes and proceeds from sub-licensing agreements until such time that funds provided by operations are sufficient to fund working capital requirements. The financial statements of the Company do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded assets, or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

 

3. Significant Accounting Policies

The significant accounting policies followed are:

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities 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.

Cash and cash equivalents are maintained at financial institutions and, at times, balances may exceed federally insured limits. We have never experienced any losses related to these balances. All of our non-interest bearing cash balances were fully insured at December 31, 2010 due to a temporary federal program in effect from December 31, 2010 through December 31, 2012. Under the program, there is no limit to the amount of insurance for eligible accounts. Beginning 2013, insurance coverage will revert to $250,000 per depositor at each financial institution, and our non-interest bearing cash balances may again exceed federally insured limits. At December 31, 2010, there were no amounts held in interest bearing accounts.

The Company’s financial instruments include cash, accounts payable, accrued liabilities and notes payable. The carrying amounts of cash, accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate their fair value, due to the short-term nature of these items. The carrying amount of notes payable approximates their fair value due to the use of market rates of interest and maturity schedules for similar issues.

Furniture and equipment are recorded at cost and depreciated on a declining balance and straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives, principally two to seven years. Accelerated methods are used for tax depreciation. Maintenance and repairs are charged to operations when incurred. Betterments and renewals are capitalized. When furniture and equipment are sold or otherwise disposed of, the asset account and related accumulated depreciation account are relieved, and any gain or loss is included in operations.

The Company evaluates the recoverability of its long-lived assets or asset groups whenever adverse events or changes in business climate indicate that the expected undiscounted future cash flows from the related assets may be less than previously anticipated. If the net book value of the related assets exceed the undiscounted future cash flows of the assets, the carrying amount would be reduced to the present value of their expected future cash flows and an impairment loss would be recognized. There have been no impairment losses in any of the periods presented.

Research and development costs are charged to operations when incurred and are included in operating expenses. The amounts charged for the year ended December 31, 2010 and 2009 and the period November 27, 2000 (date of inception) to December 31, 2010 amounted to $208,565, $108,958 and $3,735,715, respectively.

Deferred income tax assets and liabilities arise from temporary differences associated with differences between the financial statements and tax basis of assets and liabilities, as measured by the enacted tax rates, which are expected to be in effect when these differences reverse. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are classified as current or non-current, depending on the classification of the assets or liabilities to which they relate. Deferred tax assets and liabilities not related to an asset or liability are classified as current or non-current depending on the periods in which the temporary differences are expected to reverse. The principal types of temporary differences between assets and liabilities for financial statements and tax return purposes are set forth in Note 9.

The Company follows the provisions of FASB ASC 740-10 “Uncertainty in Income Taxes” (ASC 740-10), January 1, 2007. The Company has not recognized a liability as a result of the implementation of ASC 740-10. A reconciliation of the beginning and ending amount of unrecognized tax benefits has not been provided since there are no unrecognized benefits at December 31, 2010 or 2009 and since the date of adoption. The Company has not recognized interest expense or penalties as a result of the implementation of ASC 740-10. If there were an unrecognized tax benefit, the Company would recognize interest accrued related to unrecognized tax benefits in interest expense and penalties in operating expenses.

Basic earnings per share are computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the year. Diluted earnings per common share are computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding and dilutive options outstanding during the year. Common stock equivalents for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009 and the period from November 27, 2000 (Date of Inception) through December 31, 2010 were anti-dilutive due to the net losses sustained by the Company during these periods. For the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009 and the period from November 27, 2000 (Date of Inception) through December 31, 2010, potentially dilutive common stock options and warrants of 3,215,413, 2,007,413 and 3,215,413 have been excluded from dilutive earnings per share due to the Company’s losses in all periods presented.

The Company recognizes all share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, as compensation expense in the financial statements based on their fair values. That expense will be recognized over the period during which an employee is required to provide services in exchange for the award, known as the requisite service period (usually the vesting period).

The value of each grant is estimated at the grant date using the Black-Scholes option model with the following assumptions for options granted during the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009:

 

     Years Ended December 31,  
     2010      2009  

Dividend rate

     0%        0%  

Risk free interest rate

     1.49% - 2.04%        1.44% - 2.51%  

Expected term

     5 years         5 years   

Expected volatility

     168.9% - 176%        148.9% - 189.8%  

The basis for the above assumptions are as follows: the dividend rate is based upon the Company’s history of dividends; the risk-free interest rate for periods within the expected term of the option is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant; the expected term was calculated based on the Company’s historical pattern of options granted and the period of time they are expected to be outstanding; expected volatility was based on the Company’s historical market price at consistent points in a period equal to the expected life of the options. The Company estimates forfeitures both at the date of grant as well as throughout the requisite service periods based on the Company’s historical experience and future expectations.

The Company issues common stock and common stock options and warrants to consultants for various services. For these transactions, the Company follows the guidance in FASB ASC Topic 505. Costs for these transactions are measured at the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instrument issued, whichever is more reliably measureable. The value of the common stock is measured at the earlier of (i) the date at which a firm commitment for performance by the counterparty to earn the equity instrument is reached or (ii) the date at which the counterparty’s performance is complete. For the periods ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, the Company recognized $0 and $36,644, respectively, in consulting expenses and a corresponding increase to additional paid-in-capital related to common stock options issued for these services. Additionally, the Company recognized $98,058 and $571,625 in consulting expense related to prepaid consulting services paid for with common stock for the periods ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

3. Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) introduced a framework for measuring fair value and expanded required disclosure about fair value measurements of assets and liabilities. The Company adopted the standard for those financial assets and liabilities as of the beginning of the 2008 fiscal year and the impact of adoption was not significant. FASB Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 820 “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” (ASC 820) defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. ASC 820 also establishes a fair value hierarchy that distinguishes between (1) market participant assumptions developed based on market data obtained from independent sources (observable inputs) and (2) an entity’s own assumptions about market participant assumptions developed based on the best information available in the circumstances (unobservable inputs). The fair value hierarchy consists of three broad levels, which gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are described below:

 

   

Level 1 - Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities.

 

   

Level 2 - Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, including quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (e.g., interest rates); and inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means.

 

   

Level 3 - Inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable.

Fair value estimates discussed herein are based upon certain market assumptions and pertinent information available to management as of December 31, 2010. The respective carrying value of certain on-balance-sheet financial instruments approximated their fair values due to the short-term nature of these instruments. These financial instruments include accounts receivable, other current assets, accounts payable, accrued compensation and accrued expenses. The Company had no financial instruments as of December 31, 2010 that would be valued at fair value on a recurring basis.

Certain reclassifications have been made to the financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2009 to conform to the presentation as of and for the year ended December 31, 2010.

Recent accounting pronouncements

Other recent accounting pronouncements issued by the FASB (including its EITF), the AICPA, and the SEC did not or are not believed by management to have a material impact on the Company’s present or future financial statements.

4. Option to Acquire License

In July 2002, the Company exercised its option to obtain a license to commercially exploit certain turbine truck engine technology owned by Alpha. The original agreement required the Company to complete and file a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and once the public offering was filed and declared effective by the SEC, Alpha was to grant the license in exchange for 10,000,000 shares of common stock of the Company and other licensing considerations as follows:

 

 

Licensing fee – $250,000 licensing note payable on August 23, 2005 or agreement is terminated;

 

 

Minimum royalties – $250,000 due minimum royalty payment each year once licensing note is settled;

 

 

Royalties – eight percent of net sales after manufacturing and sales commence; and

 

 

Contract fees for design and engineering services.

In July 2002, Alpha modified the agreement to allow the Company to acquire the license agreement in advance of completing its registration statement and accepted a note as payment for the licensing fee and for the issuance of 5,000,000 shares of common stock in lieu of the original 10,000,000 shares. The value of these shares was based on $0.50 per share, which was the issuance price for common stock under the Company’s private placement offering. In August 2003 and 2004, the agreement was further amended to extend the term of the note and to establish that minimum royalty payments shall begin after the note is settled.

During the year ended December 31, 2005, the Company issued 125,000 shares of common stock in satisfaction of the $250,000 note and the accrual of the minimum royalty fees began. In addition, during the year ended December 31, 2006, the Company paid $416,667 of royalty fees through the issuance of 100,000 shares of common stock. As of December 31, 2010, the Company has accrued $1,051,500 of royalty fees related to this agreement.

Alpha owns the patents to a new gas turbine engine system called Detonation Cycle Gas Turbine Engine (DCGT). Alpha is in the business of licensing the use of its DCGT technology for many different applications, including the manufacture of heavy duty highway truck engines. Alpha and CNF Transportation (formerly Consolidated Freightways, Inc.) have an agreement to form and finance a potential 50/50 joint venture after the demonstration of a highway truck engine for the manufacture and marketing of heavy duty highway truck engines, both for the fleet of CNF Transportation and exclusive sales to the highway trucking industry. CNF Transportation is a large, over the road freight hauling company and manufacturer of heavy duty highway trucks. Upon the receipt of its licensing agreement with Alpha, the Company has assumed Alpha’s right to enter into this joint venture.

The Company has recognized $2,735,649 of research and development expense since inception related to the license agreement, as the license is exclusively for the development, manufacturing and sales of the DCGT and has no future economic benefit relative to other research and development projects.

6. Options and warrants

The Company’s 2006 Incentive Compensation Plan authorizes up to 2,000,000 shares of common stock to any employee or Consultant during any one calendar year for grants of both incentive stock options and non-qualified stock options to key employees, officers, directors, and consultants. Options granted under the Plan must be exercised within a term determined by the Board of Directors. The Option Price payable for the shares of Common Stock covered by any Option shall be determined by the Board of Directors, provided that such exercise price shall not be less than 100% of the Fair Market Value of a Share on the date of grant of the Option and shall not, in any event, be less than the par value of a Share on the date of grant of the Option. The Company granted 525,000 and 900,000 common stock options and warrants to consultants and directors and recognized $2,443 and $87,511 in compensation expense for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

The warrants granted in 2010 were issued to consultants and were fully vested at the grant date, however, the term of the agreement is for five years and the consultants would forfeit the warrants in the event of non-performance. Accordingly, the requisite service period is the term of the agreement.

The Company’s 2008 Incentive Compensation Plan authorizes up to 5,000,000 shares of common stock to restrictions on resale upon the purchasers of the Stock from the employees or the consultants, unless contained in the written award approved by the Board of Directors. As of December 31, 2010, no shares have been issued under this plan.

The fair value of each option under the 2006 Incentive Compensation Plan was estimated on the date of grant using the Black Scholes model that uses assumptions noted in the following table. Expected volatility is based on the Company’s historical market price at consistent points in periods equal to the expected life of the options. The expected term of options granted is based on the Company’s historical experience. The risk-free interest rate for the periods within the contractual life of the option is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant. The Company estimates forfeitures; both at the date of grant as well as throughout the requisite service period, based on the Company’s historical experience and future expectations.

The aggregate intrinsic value of options outstanding and exercisable at December 31, 2010, based on the Company’s closing stock price of $0.15 was $45,000. The aggregate intrinsic value of options outstanding and exercisable at December 31, 2009, based on the Company’s closing stock price of $0.39 was $289,500. Intrinsic value is the amount by which the fair value of the underlying stock exceeds the exercise price of the options.

During the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, the Company issued 783,000 and 747,413 warrants, respectively, in conjunction with the issuance of common stock. The warrants entitle the holder to purchase 783,000 and 747,413 shares of the Company’s common stock, respectively, at any time, at exercise prices ranging from $0.30 - $0.75 and $0.25 – $1.00 per share, respectively.

8. Income Taxes

Deferred taxes are recorded for all existing temporary differences in the Company’s assets and liabilities for income tax and financial reporting purposes. Due to the valuation allowance for deferred tax assets, as noted below, there was no net deferred tax benefit or expense for the years ended December 31, 2010 or 2009.

There is no current or deferred income tax expense or benefit allocated to continuing operations for the years ended December 31, 2010 or 2009 or the period November 27, 2000 (Date of inception) through December 31, 2010.

The provision for income taxes is different from that which would be obtained by applying the statutory federal income tax rate to income before income taxes. The items causing this difference are as follows:

 

     2010     2009  

Tax expense (benefit) at U.S. statutory rate

   $ (873,500 )   $ (772,500 )

State income tax expense (benefit), net of federal benefit

     (93,300 )     (82,500 )

Stock option expense

    

Effect of non-deductible expenses

     2,700        1,800   

Other

     (3,600 )     1,000   

Change in valuation allowance

     967,700        852,200   
                
   $ —        $ —     
                

The tax effects of temporary differences that give rise to significant portions of the deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities at December 31, 2010 and 2009 are as follows:

 

     2010     2009  

Deferred tax assets (liability), noncurrent:

    

Depreciation

   $ 6,600        7,600   

License agreement

     395,900        475,100   

Capitalized start up costs

     3,725,900        3,082,600   

Net operating loss

     412,500        138,500   

Stock compensation

     115,700        104,400   

Contribution carryover

     2,700        800   

Intangible agency fee

     21,600     

Debt issuance

     2,100     

Valuation allowance

     (4,683,000 )     (3,809,000 )
                
   $ —        $ —     
                

Since management of the Company believes that it is more likely than not that the net deferred tax assets will not provide future benefit, the Company has established a 100 percent valuation allowance on the net deferred tax assets as of December 31, 2010 and 2009.

As of December 31, 2010, the Company had federal and state net operating loss carry-forwards totaling approximately $1,096,000 which begin expiring in 2022.

9. Related Party Transactions

During the year ended December 31, 2003, the Company signed a note payable with a related party in the amount of $15,000. The balance at December 31, 2010 is $1,901. This note payable was unsecured, non-interest bearing and has no specific repayment terms, however, payment is not expected prior to December 31, 2011.

As of December 31, 2010 and 2009, accounts payable included $40,150 and $42,550, respectively, for various accounting services, due to the Company’s Chief Accounting Officer who is also a director of the Company.

As of December 31, 2010 and 2009, accounts payable included $47,557 and $22,708 due to a Company owned by the Company’s Chief Technology Officer.

The above terms and amounts are not necessarily indicative of the terms and amounts that would have been incurred had comparable transactions been entered into with independent parties.

 

10. Convertible Note Payable

In June 2008, the Company issued a Convertible Debenture to Golden Gate Investors, Inc. (the “holder”) in the principal amount of $1,000,000, dated June 6, 2008, pursuant to Rule 506 promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission, for the purpose of accessing necessary funding to continue operations.

Pursuant to the terms of the Debenture, the related Securities Purchase Agreement, Secured Promissory Note and Stock Pledge Agreement, each executed in connection therewith, the Company has issued its $1,000,000 Convertible Debenture (the “Debenture”) for the payment by Golden Gate of $100,000 in cash and the execution and delivery by Golden Gate of a $900,000 Secured Promissory Note of even date (the “Note”), bearing interest at 8% per annum. For financial statement purposes, these items have been netted, as the Company has the legal right of offset.

The Debenture bears interest at 7.75% per annum, payable monthly, maturing June 30, 2012, and was secured by a Continuing Personal Guaranty, whereby the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and majority shareholder guaranteed the Company’s obligations for a period of eight months. Originally, the Debenture Holder was entitled to convert into common stock of the company at the conversion price equal to the lesser of (i) $0.50, or (ii) 80% of the average of the 3 lowest Volume Weighted Average Prices during the 20 Trading Days prior to Holder’s election to convert, as such terms are defined in the Debenture. The Holder can only convert that amount of the Debenture that has actually been paid for by either cash at closing or principal pre-payments made on the Promissory Note.

During 2010 and since inception, the Company has drawn $250,000 and $745,000 in proceeds related to the note, respectively. During 2010 and since inception, the Holder has converted $253,000 and $722,000 in convertible notes into 1,373,278 and 7,006,818 common shares, respectively.

In December 2009, the convertible debenture agreement was amended. As a result of the amendment, effective January 15, 2010, the conversion price has a $0.15 fixed floor price that limits the number of common shares upon conversion to an amount that is substantially below the Company’s authorized common shares that can be issued. Additionally, the penalty associated with the default provision to maintain timely filings of all reports required by the Securities and Exchange Commission was removed. Lastly, the default provision related to the interest rate adjustment indexed to changes in the Company’s common stock was removed. In the event of certain defaults, the Company would pay a default fixed interest rate of 9.75% per annum.

ITEM 9A(T). CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

The Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer has evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the fiscal period ending December 31, 2010 covered by this Annual Report on Form 10-K. Based upon such evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and acting Chief Financial Officer has concluded that, as of the end of such period, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as required under Rules 13a – 15(e) and 15d – 15(e) under the Exchange Act. This conclusion by the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer does not relate to reporting periods after December 31, 2010.

Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rue 13a-15(f) and 15d – 15(f) of the Exchange Act) of the Company. Internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

The Company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the Company; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, and that receipts and expenditures of the Company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the Company; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the Company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies and procedures may deteriorate.

Management, under the supervision of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting based on the framework in Internal control – Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on this evaluation, management concluded that the Company’s internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of December 31, 2010 under the criteria set forth in the Internal Control – Integrated Framework.

A material weakness is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the Company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. Management has determined that material weaknesses exist due to a lack of formalized controls and procedures as well as a lack of segregation of duties, as well as the absence of an independent audit committee chair, resulting from the Company’s limited resources.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the fourth fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2010 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Auditor’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

This annual report does not include an attestation report of the Company’s registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by our registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the SEC that permit us to provide only management’s report on Form 10K.
