Notes to Interim Consolidated Financial Statements
December 31, 2009
 (Unaudited)

Note 1. Basis of Presentation and Accounting Policies
     
Unaudited Interim Financial Information. The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for the presentation of interim financial information, but do not include all the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The balance sheet as of June 30, 2009 has been derived from the audited consolidated financial statements of Chartwell International, Inc. at that date. Unless stated otherwise, references in this Form 10-Q to “we,” “us,” or “our” refer to Chartwell International, Inc.
     
In the opinion of our management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three and six month periods ended December 31, 2009 and the operating results from inception on March 3, 2005 through December 31, 2009 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ended June 30, 2010. Further, we have had limited operations in all reporting periods through March 31, 2009. We have had no active operations since April 1, 2009. For further information, refer to the financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed on October 15, 2009.
     
In accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification™ (“ASC”) Topic 855, Subsequent Events, or ASC 855, we evaluated all events or transactions that occurred after December 31, 2009 through the date of this report, which represents the date the consolidated financial statements were issued. During this period we are disclosing material recognizable subsequent events as discussed in Note 7.

Principles of Consolidation
     
The consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2009 and for the three and six months ended December 31, 2009 include the accounts of Chartwell International, Inc., and the operations of our wholly-owned subsidiary, Belville Mining Company, Inc. (“Belville”).  The consolidated financial statements for the three and six months ended December 31, 2008 include the accounts of Chartwell International, Inc. and the operations of our wholly-owned subsidiaries Belville, Greater Ohio Resources, Inc. (“Greater Ohio”), Greater Hudson Resources, Inc. (“Greater Hudson”), and Middletown and New Jersey Railway Company, Inc. (“MNJ”).  Inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated. The corporate charters of Greater Hudson and Greater Ohio were surrendered on May 12, 2009 and May 19, 2009 respectively. MNJ ceased operations on March 31, 2009. On June 15, 2009 we assigned all the remaining assets and liabilities of MNJ to Chartwell International, Inc. We surrendered the corporate charter of MNJ on October 5, 2009.

Use of Estimates
     
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reported periods. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates. Areas where significant estimation is involved include, but are not limited to evaluations of long-term assets and the valuation of stock-based compensation.

Revenue Recognition
     
We generated limited revenue from rail transportation until March 31, 2009 and we recognized revenue on the completion of transportation across our short line railroad. Our credit terms were generally 15 to 30 days. We did not maintain a reserve for rail transportation revenue as we had one customer and we had not incurred any losses since we began generating revenue in February 2006.
     
Impairment of Long-Term Assets
     
We assess the recoverability of long-lived assets at least annually or whenever adverse events or changes in circumstances indicate that impairment may have occurred in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 360-10, Property, Plant, and Equipment, Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets, or ASC 360-10. In the event that facts and circumstances indicate that the carrying value of long-term assets may be impaired, an evaluation of recoverability would be performed. If an evaluation is required, the estimated future undiscounted cash flows associated with the asset would be compared to the asset’s carrying amount to determine if a write-down to market value or discounted cash flow value is required. The write-down, if any, would be charged to operations in the period that impairment was identified. During the quarters ended December 31, 2007, March 31, 2008, December 31, 2008, June 30,

Note 1. Basis of Presentation and Accounting Policies (continued)
  
Impairment of Long-Term Assets (continued)

2009, September 30, 2009 and December 31, 2009 our management identified certain railroad equipment assets, and, land, mineral rights and related infrastructure associated with our MNJ and Belville subsidiaries were not being used in current operations and evaluated the market value of these assets. We determined the value of these assets had been impaired in comparison to prices for similar assets and we recorded write-downs totaling $7,597,000 ($894,000 at December 31, 2007, $1,361,000 at March 31, 2008, $470,000 at December 31, 2008, $302,000 at June 30, 2009, $123,000 at September 30, 2009 and $4,447,000 at December 31, 2009) based on our estimates of their market value. These write-downs were included in general and administrative expenses on the Consolidated Statement of Operations.

Stock Based Compensation
     
FASB ASC Topic 718 Compensation — Stock Compensation, or ASC 718, requires companies to estimate the fair value of share-based payment awards on the date of grant using an option-pricing model. On February 8, 2006 our shareholders approved a stock based compensation plan (the “2006 Plan”) for the benefit of our employees, directors and other eligible parties. The 2006 Plan permits the granting of restricted stock and options of up to 9% of our outstanding common stock including common stock that is convertible from other securities.
          
Newly Adopted Accounting Standards

In July 2009, the FASB issued ASC Topic 105, Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, or ASC 105, (formerly FASB Statement No. 168 FASB Accounting Standards Codification and the Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles). ASC 105 establishes the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (Codification) as the single source of authoritative U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (U.S. GAAP) recognized by the FASB to be applied by nongovernmental entities. Rules and interpretive releases of the SEC under authority of federal securities laws are also sources of authoritative U.S. GAAP for SEC registrants. ASC 105 and the Codification were effective for financial statements issued for interim and annual periods ending after September 15, 2009. As ASC 105 is not intended to change or alter existing GAAP, the adoption on July 1, 2009, did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. The Company adjusted historical GAAP references in this first quarter 2010 Form 10-Q to reflect accounting guidance references included in the Codification.

Note 2. Description of Business
     
We are a multi-industry holding company that was formed as a Nevada corporation in 1984. We, through our wholly-owned subsidiary, are owners of land and mineral rights. Our primarily focus until January 24, 2008 was on the transportation and disposal of non-hazardous solid waste as well as the transportation of other commodities. Subsequent to January 24, 2008 and until March 31, 2009 we were providing limited rail-based transportation of commodities through our MNJ subsidiary. We had, until January 24, 2008, been pursuing a growth strategy through acquisitions of assets, properties and access rights that can be combined and strategic relationships with those companies that focus on waste by rail services, rail transportation logistics, and disposal options, including landfill management. We are currently re-evaluating our strategy and we are focusing on evaluating the best business approach to monetizing some land, mineral and mineral rights assets that we acquired to generate liquidity to fund future business activity.

We are considering all available options to best address our immediate needs, including less desirable options like the sale of certain assets at discounted values, bankruptcy proceedings or voluntary dissolution.
     
Until early 2005 our principal activity consisted of the oversight of investments, principally in College Partnership, Inc. On January 31, 2005, we transferred all assets and liabilities to our then wholly owned subsidiary, Kingsley Capital, Inc. and subsequently transferred all of our Kingsley stock to our then existing shareholders as a dividend effective March 3, 2005 effecting a spin-off of Kingsley Capital. On March 23, 2005, in two separate but concurrent transactions, we issued 25,838,433 pre-split shares of our common stock to one of our directors in a private transaction for $200,000, which proceeds were used to pay off the promissory note issued previously to Kingsley Capital, and we issued an additional 19,161,567 pre-split shares of our common stock to the same director in a private transaction for $250,000.
     
Since March 3, 2005 and following the discontinuation of our former operations and business, we changed our focus and strategic direction and pursued operations as a development stage company in the rail-based transportation and solid waste management industries. Most of our activities during the period from March 3, 2005 to December 31, 2009 were dedicated to seeking acquisition targets with viable on-going operations, or acquisition of assets, properties and access rights that could be most synergistically combined and allow us to begin operations.
     
On September 8, 2005, we acquired E-Rail, a development stage company with assets and minimal operations in the solid waste transportation and disposal industry. Because E-Rail was not deemed a business, the acquisition was treated as an acquisition of assets. The acquisition included E-Rail’s wholly-owned subsidiary, Belville, based in Ohio, which has significant interests and rights to over 9,600 acres of land and minerals in South-Central Ohio, a portion of which land we intended to permit for solid waste landfill and other industrial uses. The property principally contains coal, clay and limestone. We are only beginning the permitting process, and cannot estimate at this time when operational use of the property will begin. In addition to permits, the site will require significant infrastructure improvements, which we are evaluating. Subsequent to the acquisition, E-Rail assigned the Belville shares to Chartwell so that it is functioning as one of our direct subsidiaries.
     
On April 1, 2006, in an effort to better streamline operations, E-Rail assigned all of its assets and liabilities to Hudson. We surrendered the corporate charter of E-Rail on August 2, 2006.
     
On April 26, 2006, we completed the acquisition of Cranberry Creek, including its wholly-owned subsidiary, MNJ that owns and operates a regional short-line railroad in Middletown, New York. MNJ owned and operated a regional short-line railroad headquartered and based in Middletown, New York. MNJ’s operations were limited and we had begun capital improvements and were considering operational infrastructure alternatives to both increase the volume of activity on the railroad as well as integrating the railroad with our other developing operations.
     
On May 12, 2006, in an effort to further simplify our corporate structure, we assigned all the assets and liabilities of Cranberry Creek to MNJ. We surrendered the corporate charter of Cranberry Creek on November 15, 2006.

Note 2. Description of Business (continued)

                On August 29, 2006, our wholly-owned subsidiaries, Hudson and HLL completed the acquisition of certain agreements from Steel Wheels Transport, LLC and Team G Loading, LLC that they respectively held with New York and Greenwood Lake Railway Company, Inc. (“Greenwood”). One agreement was a Facility Capacity Agreement, which granted Hudson the right to utilize a guaranteed amount of capacity at Greenwood’s railroad at Dundee Yard in Passaic, New Jersey. The other agreement was a Railroad Car Loading Agreement, which granted HLL the exclusive right to perform loading of bulk materials primarily consisting of construction and demolition debris to railcars at Greenwood’s railroad at Dundee Yard. As consideration for the assignment and assumption of these agreements Hudson and HLL paid an aggregate of $1,475,000 and agreed to either payoff or assume certain equipment loans and leases. We acquired the Facility Capacity Agreement and Railroad Car Loading agreements as part of our strategy to offer rail-based solid waste transportation and disposal services. Our initial plans for this location were to operate as a transload facility to attract truckers hauling construction and demolition debris to our site, where we loaded the debris onto railway cars and ship the debris to landfill sites in Ohio owned and operated by third party providers. We began transload activities on this site on September 11, 2006.
     
On January 24, 2008, our wholly-owned subsidiaries Hudson and HLL entered into an Amended and Restated Purchase Agreement with Perry New Jersey, LLC for the sale of substantially all of their assets to Perry New Jersey I, LLC for cash consideration of $1,700,000, subject to a $803,594 holdback, and assumption by Perry of certain debts and leases of Hudson and HLL. This transaction closed on January 24, 2008. As a result of the asset sale we no longer had rail-based solid waste transportation operations. We assigned remaining assets and liabilities of Hudson and HLL to Chartwell International, Inc. and surrendered the corporate charters of HLL and Hudson on May 30, 2008 and September 19, 2008, respectively.

On March 31, 2009 we and our wholly-owned subsidiary, MNJ, entered into a definitive Agreement for Sale and Purchase of Business Assets with Middletown & New Jersey Railroad, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Buyer”).  Under the terms of the agreement, we agreed to sell substantially all of MNJ’s assets used in connection with operating our railroad freight transportation business serving central Orange County in Middletown, New York. The purchase price was $386,900 and the assumption by Buyer of certain liabilities.  On April 6, 2009, we and MNJ consummated the sale.  The purchase price was deposited into an escrow account subject to the following release conditions: (a) $356,900 to be released to us upon our providing Buyer with a title report and title insurance, and (b) $30,000 to be released to us upon resolution of certain real property matters. Between March 31, 2009 and April 6, 2009 we did not have any operations in MNJ. Based on this transaction we no longer had any active operations in rail transportation. We in the process of selling off the remaining MNJ land holdings that were not connected with MNJ’s rail transportation business. We anticipate that substantially all of our MNJ land holdings will be sold within the next 6 to 12 months.

Effective April 1, 2009, in our efforts to reduce operating costs, the limited operations of our subsidiaries Greater Hudson Resources, Inc. and Greater Ohio Resources, Inc. were terminated, all the assets and liabilities of both entities were assigned to Chartwell International, Inc., and their corporate charters were surrendered on May 12, 2009 and May 19, 2009, respectively.

On June 15, 2009 we assigned all the remaining assets and liabilities of MNJ to Chartwell International, Inc. We surrendered the corporate charter of MNJ on October 5, 2009.
     
Our executive offices are based in Falls Church, Virginia.

Note 3. Notes Payable
     
On September 8, 2005, in connection with our acquisition of E-Rail, we assumed five promissory notes with a face value of $1,823,000 bearing interest at rates between 0% to 6.5% per annum secured by land owned by our Belville subsidiary and payable over two to five years in monthly installments of principal and interest. The promissory notes were recorded with a value of $1,638,000 which our management believes fairly represents the present value of minimum payments required to be paid under the notes with an interest rate of 11% per annum based on our then current accessible borrowing rate based on proposals for debt financing on comparable assets. On June 8, 2006, we negotiated an early payoff of one of the notes that resulted in gain on the settlement of the note of $39,000. During the year ended June 30, 2007 we either paid off or renegotiated the repayment terms of the notes and have determined that the remaining face value fairly represents the present value of minimum future payments based on the borrowing rates that we recently received from new debt assumed. We suspended making payments against the remaining notes in February 2008 and attempting to renegotiate the repayment terms.  On November 6 and 12, 2009 we received notices of default on the notes. We have been unable to cure the defaults. We continue to accrue interest based on the existing interest rates. As of December 31, 2009 the outstanding balances including accrued interest were $1,063,000 of which $583,000 are due in one year or less.

The conversion rights have expired. With the written consent of the note holder, we did not pay off the note payable on its due date. To date, we have attempted and continue to negotiate with the note holder to extend and restructure the note payable beyond its original due date. However, we are in default of the note and the note holder filed a lawsuit against us in Orange County, New York on August 20, 2009.   We have continued to accrue interest on the note payable at the original note interest rate. At December 31, 2009, the balance of the note payable plus accrued interest was $576,000 and reported in current liabilities in the consolidated balance sheet.

Common Stock Transactions (continued)

On September 2 and 3, 2008, our principal shareholder, Orchestra, involuntary sold 29,500 common shares as result of a broker margin call. On September 23, 2008, Orchestra remitted $4,000 to us which represented the profit on the short swing sale or our common stock.

On January 1, 2009 we issued 750,000 shares of common stock to an officer and an employee in exchange for services valued at $0.10 per share or $75,000, and we issued 600,000 shares of common stock to an accredited foreign private investor valued at $0.10 per share or $60,000 as a financing fee for agreeing to defer accrued and outstanding interest payments on a promissory note due to the investor. Our management valued the shares of common stock at the closing stock market price on the date of the transaction.

On February 19, 2009 our shareholders approved a one-for-two reverse stock split of our common stock that became effective on April 8, 2009. The effect of the reverse split has been reflected in our financial statements retroactively.

On August 7 and 21, 2009 we issued a total of 2,500,000 shares of common stock to accredited private investors for cash at $0.015 per share or $38,000.

Stock Options
     
Our 2006 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2006 Plan”) was approved by shareholders on February 8, 2006, and permits the granting of up to 9% of our outstanding shares of common stock and the number of common shares issuable from convertible securities or 1,130,433 shares to employees and directors. Stock option awards are granted with an exercise price that is generally equal to or greater than the market price of our common stock on the date of the grant or the most recent direct issuance of our common stock for cash closest to the date of the option grant. The options vest generally over a range of two to four years and expire five years after the grant date. Stock options under the 2006 Plan provide for accelerated vesting if there is a change in control (as defined by the 2006 Plan).
     
The fair value of each stock option granted is estimated on the date of the grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model and factors in an estimated forfeiture based on management assessment of historical employee termination experience as well as estimates of future terminations where historical information is limited. The Black-Scholes option-pricing model has assumptions for risk free interest rates, dividends, stock volatility and expected life of an option grant. The risk free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury Bill rate with a maturity based on the expected life of the options and on the closest day to an individual stock option grant. Dividend rates are based on our dividend history. The stock volatility factor is based on up to the past three years of market prices of our common stock. The expected life of an option grant is based on its vesting period. The fair value of each option grant is recognized as compensation expense over the requisite service period on a straight line basis.
     
During the six-month periods ended December 31, 2009 and 2008 we did not grant any stock options to our employees or directors.

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included elsewhere in this quarterly report. Forward-looking statements are statements not based on historical information and which relate to future operations, strategies, financial results or other developments. Forward-looking statements are based upon estimates, forecasts, and assumptions that are inherently subject to significant business, economic and competitive uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are beyond our control and many of which, with respect to future business decisions, are subject to change. These uncertainties and contingencies can affect actual results and could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in any forward-looking statements made by us, or on our behalf. We disclaim any obligation to update forward-looking statements
     
Overview
     
We are a multi-industry holding company that is currently in the development stage. We, through our wholly-owned subsidiary, are owners of land and mineral rights. Our primarily focus until January 24, 2008 was on the transportation and disposal of non-hazardous solid waste as well as the transportation of other commodities. Subsequent to January 24, 2008 and until March 31, 2009 we were providing limited rail-based transportation of commodities through our MNJ subsidiary. We had, until January 24, 2008, been pursuing a growth strategy through acquisitions of assets, properties and access rights that can be combined and strategic relationships with those companies that focus on waste by rail services, rail transportation logistics, and disposal options, including landfill management. We are currently re-evaluating our strategy and we are focusing on evaluating the best business approach to monetizing some land, mineral and mineral rights assets that we acquired to generate liquidity to fund future business activity.
  
Background and Corporate History
     
Until early 2005 our principal activity consisted of the oversight of investments, principally in College Partnership, Inc. On January 31, 2005, we transferred all assets and liabilities to our then wholly-owned subsidiary, Kingsley Capital, Inc. (“Kingsley”), and subsequently transferred all of our Kingsley stock to our then existing shareholders as a dividend effective March 3, 2005 effecting a spin-off of Kingsley Capital. On March 23, 2005, in two separate but concurrent transactions, we sold 25,838,433 pre-split shares of our common stock to one of our Directors in a private transaction for $200,000, which proceeds were used to pay off the promissory note issued previously to Kingsley Capital, and our controlling affiliates sold an additional 19,161,567 pre-split shares of our common stock to one of our Directors in a private transaction for $250,000.
     
Since March 3, 2005 and following the discontinuation of our former operations and business, we changed our focus and strategic direction and pursued operations as a development stage company in the rail-based transportation and solid waste management industries. Most of our activities during the period from March 3, 2005 to December 31, 2009 were dedicated to seeking acquisition targets with viable on-going operations, or acquisition of assets, properties and access rights that could be most synergistically combined and allow us to begin operations.
     
On September 8, 2005, we acquired E-Rail Logistics, Inc. (“E-Rail”), a development stage company with assets and minimal operations in the solid waste transportation and disposal industry. Because E-Rail was not deemed a business, the acquisition was treated as an acquisition of assets. The acquisition included E-Rail’s wholly-owned subsidiary, Belville, based in Ohio which has significant interests and rights to over 9,600 acres of land and minerals in South-Central Ohio, a portion of which land we intended to permit for solid waste landfill and other industrial uses. The property principally contains coal, clay and limestone. We were only beginning the permitting process, and could not estimate when operational use of the property would begin. In addition to permits, the site will require significant infrastructure improvements, which we were evaluating. Subsequent to the acquisition, E-Rail assigned the Belville shares to Chartwell so that Belville is functioning as one of our direct subsidiaries.
     
On April 1, 2006, in an effort to better streamline operations, E-Rail assigned all of its assets and liabilities to Hudson Logistics, Inc. (“Hudson”). We surrendered the corporate charter of E-Rail on August 2, 2006.
     
On April 26, 2006, we completed the acquisition of Cranberry Creek Railroad, Inc. (“Cranberry Creek”), a New Jersey corporation including its wholly-owned subsidiary, Middletown and New Jersey Railway Company, Inc. (“MNJ”) that owns and operates a regional short-line railroad in Middletown, New York. MNJ owned and operates a regional short-line railroad headquartered and based in Middletown, New York. MNJ’s operations were limited and we had begun capital improvements and were considering operational infrastructure alternatives to both increase the volume of activity on the railroad as well as integrating the railroad with our other developing operations.
     
On May 12, 2006, in an effort to further simplify our corporate structure, we assigned all the assets and liabilities of Cranberry Creek to MNJ. We surrendered the corporate charter of Cranberry Creek on November 15, 2006.

On August 29, 2006, our wholly-owned subsidiaries, Hudson and Hudson Logistics Loading, Inc. (“HLL”) completed the acquisition of certain agreements from Steel Wheels Transport, LLC and Team G Loading, LLC that they respectively held with New York and Greenwood Lake Railway Company, Inc. (“Greenwood”). One agreement was a Facility Capacity Agreement, which granted Hudson the right to utilize a guaranteed amount of capacity at Greenwood’s railroad at Dundee Yard in Passaic, New Jersey. The other agreement was a Railroad Car Loading Agreement, which granted HLL the exclusive right to perform loading of bulk materials primarily consisting of construction and demolition debris to railcars at Greenwood’s railroad at Dundee Yard. As consideration for the assignment and assumption of these agreements Hudson and HLL paid an aggregate of $1,475,000. Additionally, we incurred approximately $34,000 in legal fees bringing our capitalized cost of these agreements to $1,509,000. We further agreed to either pay off or assume certain equipment loans and leases.
     
We acquired the Capacity and Loading agreements as part of our strategy to offer rail-based solid waste transportation and disposal services. Our initial plans for this location were to operate as a transload facility to attract truckers hauling construction and demolition debris to our site, where we then load the debris onto railway cars and ship the debris to landfill sites in Ohio owned and operated by third party providers. We began transload activities on this site on September 11, 2006.
     
On January 24, 2008, our wholly-owned subsidiaries Hudson and HLL entered into an Amended and Restated Purchase Agreement with Perry New Jersey, LLC for the sale of substantially all of their assets to Perry New Jersey I, LLC for cash consideration of $1,700,000, subject to a $803,594 holdback, and assumption by Perry of certain debts and leases of Hudson and HLL. This transaction closed on January 24, 2008. As a result of the asset sale we no longer had rail-based solid waste transportations operations. We assigned remaining assets and liabilities of Hudson and HLL to Chartwell International, Inc. and surrendered the corporate charters of HLL and Hudson on May 30, 2008 and September 19, 2008, respectively.

On March 31, 2009 we and our wholly-owned subsidiary, MNJ, entered into a definitive Agreement for Sale and Purchase of Business Assets with Middletown & New Jersey Railroad, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Buyer”).  Under the terms of the agreement, we agreed to sell substantially all of MNJ’s assets used in connection with operating our railroad freight transportation business serving central Orange County in Middletown, New York. The purchase price was $386,900 and the assumption by Buyer of certain liabilities.  On April 6, 2009, we and MNJ consummated the sale.  The purchase price was deposited into an escrow account subject to the following release conditions: (a) $356,900 to be released to us upon our providing Buyer with a title report and title insurance, and (b) $30,000 to be released to us upon resolution of certain real property matters. Between March 31, 2009 and April 6, 2009 we did not have any operations in MNJ. Based on this transaction we no longer had any active operations in rail transportation. We in the process of selling off the remaining MNJ land holdings that were not connected with MNJ’s rail transportation business. We anticipate that substantially all of our MNJ land holdings will be sold within the next 6 - 12 months.

Effective April 1, 2009, in our efforts to reduce operating costs, the limited operations of our subsidiaries Greater Hudson Resources, Inc. and Greater Ohio Resources, Inc. were terminated, all the assets and liabilities of both entities were assigned to Chartwell International, Inc., and their corporate charters were surrendered on May 12, 2009 and May 19, 2009, respectively.

On June 15, 2009 we assigned all the remaining assets and liabilities of MNJ to Chartwell International, Inc. We surrendered the corporate charter of MNJ on October 5, 2009.

On November 13, 2009 we signed a letter of intent with Energy Resources Holdings, LLC (“ERH”) whereby we would acquire ERH in exchange for an issuance of our common shares that would represent between 85% and 90% of the our common stock on a fully diluted basis in a reverse merger transaction. The letter of intent includes a provision to spin-off of any remaining assets of BMC and MNJ as well as the assumption or elimination of any remaining liabilities. Although we are currently negotiating the terms of definitive agreements which include an agreement and plan of merger, there are no assurances that we can successfully complete the reverse merger and other related transactions.

We are considering all available options to best address our immediate needs, including less desirable options like the sale of certain assets at discounted values, bankruptcy proceedings or voluntary dissolution.
     
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
     
Our Financial Statements are based on the selection and application of significant accounting policies, which require our management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the Balance Sheets and the Statements of Operations. We believe that the following are the most critical areas that may affect our financial condition and results of operations.
     
Revenue Recognition. We generated limited revenue from rail transportation until March 31, 2009 and we recognized revenue on the completion of transportation across our short line railroad. Our credit terms were generally 15 to 30 days. We did not maintain a reserve for rail transportation revenue as we had one customer and we had not incurred any losses since we began generating revenue in February 2006.

Stock Based Compensation. FASB ASC Topic 718 Compensation — Stock Compensation, or ASC 718, requires companies to estimate the fair value of share-based payment awards on the date of grant using an option-pricing model. Our 2006 Equity Incentive Plan (“2006 Plan”) was approved by our shareholders on February 8, 2006 and permits the granting of up to 9% of our outstanding shares of common stock and the number of shares of common stock issuable from convertible securities, or 1,130,433 shares to employees and directors. Stock option awards are granted with an exercise price that is generally equal to or greater than the market price of our common stock on the date of the grant. The options vest generally over a range of two to four years and expire five years after the grant date. Stock options under the 2006 Plan provide for accelerated vesting if there is a change in control (as defined by the 2006 Plan).
     
The fair value of each stock option granted is estimated on the date of the grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model and factors in an estimated forfeiture based on management assessment of historical employee termination experience as well as estimates of future terminations where historical information is limited. The Black-Scholes option pricing model has assumptions for risk free interest rates, dividends, stock volatility and expected life of an option grant. The risk free interest rate is based the U.S. Treasury Bill rate with a maturity based on the expected life of the options and on the closest day to an individual stock option grant. Dividend rates are based on our dividend history. The stock volatility factor is based on up to the past three years of market prices of our common stock. The expected life of an option grant is based on its vesting period. The fair value of each option grant is recognized as compensation expense over the requisite service life on a straight line basis.
     
Impairment of Long-Term Assets. We assess the recoverability of long-lived assets at least annually or whenever adverse events or changes in circumstances indicate that impairment may have occurred in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 360-10, Property, Plant, and Equipment, Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets, or ASC 360-10. In the event that facts and circumstances indicate that the carrying value of long-term assets may be impaired, an evaluation of recoverability would be performed. If an evaluation is required, the estimated future undiscounted cash flows associated with the asset would be compared to the asset’s carrying amount to determine if a write-down to market value or discounted cash flow value is required. The write-down, if any, would be charged to operations in the period that impairment was identified. During the quarters ended December 31, 2007, March 31, 2008, December 31, 2008, June 30, 2009, September 30, 2009 and December 31, 2009 our management identified certain railroad equipment assets, and, land, mineral rights and related infrastructure associated with our MNJ and Belville subsidiaries that were not being used in current operations and evaluated the market value of these assets. We determined the value of these assets had been impaired in comparison to prices for similar assets and we recorded write-downs totaling $7,597,000 ($894,000 at December 31, 2007, $1,361,000 at March 31, 2008, $470,000 at December 31, 2008, $302,000 at June 30, 2009, $123,000 at September 30, 2009 and $4,447,000 at December 31, 2009) based on our estimates of their market value. These write-downs were included in general and administrative expenses on the Consolidated Statement of Operations.

Results of Operations

Comparison of the Three Months Ended December 31, 2009 and December 31, 2008
     
We reported a net loss for the three months ended December 31, 2009 of $4,628,000 or $0.39 per share on a basic and diluted basis as compared to a loss of $745,000 or $0.09 per share on a basic and diluted basis for the three months ended December 31, 2008. The increase in the loss was primarily due to the impairment in the value of our mineral rights of $4,447,000 and partially offset by the cessation of operations at our MNJ unit and a reduction in corporate overhead.
     
Revenues
     
We had no revenues for the three months ended December 31, 2009 as we had no active operations. We recorded revenue of $36,000 consisting primarily of rail transportation income from MNJ during the three-month period ended December 31, 2008. The decline in our revenue during the current period was the result of the sale of the railroad assets of MNJ on April 6, 2009.
     
Cost of Revenues
     
We had no cost of revenues for the three months ended December 31, 2009 as we had no active operations.  We had no cost of revenue for the three months ended December 31, 2008 as there was no cost of revenue associated with our rail transportation income.

Gross Profit (Loss)

We incurred no gross profit for the three months ended December 31, 2009 as we had no active operations. We had a gross profit of $36,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2008 from our rail transportation operations for which there were no cost of revenue.
    
General and Administrative Expenses
     
General and administrative expenses increased by $3,881,000 to $4,552,000 for the three-month period ended December 31, 2009 from $671,000 for the three-month period ended December 31, 2008. This increase was primarily due to the impairment in the value of mineral reserves and was partially offset by the cessation of MNJ operations in April 2009 and other corporate overhead reductions. The recent impairment of mineral rights was caused by a combination of factors that in combination occurred in the past quarter including the continual decline of demand for coal, increased difficulty in obtaining mining permits in Ohio and the default on notes payable secured by the mineral rights that has significantly increased the possibility of foreclosure, litigation and involuntary liquidation of the mineral rights. General and administrative expenses during the current period excluding the impairment in the value of mineral rights of 4,447,000 consisted primarily of the following:

 
salaries and employee expenses of $13,000

 
rents, utilities, telephone and office related expenses of $1,000

 
professional fees of $28,000

 
investment and management consulting fees of $30,000

 
travel expenses of $19,000
     
General and administrative expenses during the three-month period ended December 31, 2008 excluding the impairment in the value of assets of $470,000 consisted primarily of the following:

 
salaries and employee expenses of $57,000

 
engineering and other consulting services of $3,000

 
rents, utilities, telephone and office related expenses of $10,000

 
professional fees of $39,000

 
investment and management consulting fees of $30,000

 
travel expenses of $10,000

 
Depreciation and amortization expense of $8,000.
     
Loss from operations for the three-month period ended December 31, 2008 also includes financing fees of $216,000 for services provided in connection with equity, debt, acquisition and divestiture transactions.
    
Other Income and Expenses
     
Other expenses consisting primarily of net interest expenses decreased by $34,000 to $76,000 for the three-month period ended December 31, 2009 from $110,000 for the three-month period ended December 31, 2008. Net interest expenses declined due to reduction in notes payable that occurred during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2009.
     
Income Tax Provision
     
We have incurred operating losses for the reporting periods. Full reserves are provided for the related deferred tax asset.  
    
Comparison of the Six Months Ended December 31, 2009 and December 31, 2008
     
We reported a net loss for the six months ended December 31, 2009 of $4,923,000 or $0.43 per share on a basic and diluted basis as compared to a loss of $1,303,000 or $0.17 per share on a basic and diluted basis for the six months ended December 31, 2008. The increase in the loss was primarily due asset impairment charges totaling $4,570,000 and partially offset by savings from the cessation of operations at our MNJ unit and a reduction in corporate overhead.

Revenues
     
We had no revenues for the six months ended December 31, 2009 as we had no active operations. We recorded revenue of $94,000 consisting primarily of rail transportation income from MNJ during the six-month period ended December 31, 2008. The decline in our revenue during the current period was the result of the sale of the railroad assets of MNJ on April 6, 2009.
     
Cost of Revenues
     
We had no cost of revenues for the six months ended December 31, 2009 as we had no active operations.  We had no cost of revenue for the six months ended December 31, 2008 as there was no cost of revenue associated with our rail transportation income.
     
Gross Profit (Loss)
     
We incurred no gross profit for the six months ended December 31, 2009 as we had no active operations. We had a gross profit of $94,000 for the six months ended December 31, 2008 from our rail transportation operations for which there were no cost of revenue.
     
General and Administrative Expenses
     
General and administrative expenses increased by $3,815,000 to $4,772,000 for the three-month period ended December 31, 2009 from $957,000 for the six-month period ended December 31, 2008. This increase was primarily due asset impairment charges and was partially offset by the cessation of MNJ operations in April 2009 and other corporate overhead reductions. General and administrative expenses during the current period other than the impairments of a minority investment in a land development company of $123,000 and mineral rights of 4,447,000 consisted primarily of the following:

 
salaries and employee expenses of $32,000

 
rents, utilities, telephone and office related expenses of $6,000

 
professional fees of $51,000

 
investment and management consulting fees of $60,000

 
travel expenses of $28,000

salaries and employee expenses of $143,000

 
engineering and other consulting services of $7,000

 
rents, utilities, telephone and office related expenses of $19,000

 
professional fees of $95,000

Depreciation and amortization expense of $16,000.
     
Loss from operations for the six-month period ended December 31, 2008 also included financing fees of $216,000 for services provided in connection with equity, debt, acquisition and divestiture transactions.
     
Other Income and Expenses
     
Other expenses consisting primarily of net interest expenses decreased by $73,000 to $151,000 for the six-month period ended December 31, 2009 from $224,000 for the six-month period ended December 31, 2008. Net interest expenses declined due to reduction in notes payable that occurred during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2009.
     
Income Tax Provision
     
We have incurred operating losses for the reporting periods. Full reserves are provided for the related deferred tax asset.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
     
At December 31, 2009, we had working capital deficiency of $4,165,000. We recorded a loss for the six-month period ended December 31, 2009 of $4,923,000 and we have accumulated losses from inception on March 3, 2005 of $20,484,000. Given our December 31, 2009 cash balance of $0 and our projected operating cash requirements, we anticipate that our existing capital resources will not be adequate to satisfy our cash flow requirements through March 31, 2010 and we will be required to raise capital through debt or equity financings or sell, dispose or liquidate certain of our assets to generate cash and reduce our short term debt obligations. There are no assurances that any of these financing alternatives will be available to us, or if available, on terms satisfactory to us. If we are unable to raise additional capital or through the sale of assets, our financial position will be seriously and adversely affected. We are currently in default on loans totaling $3,733,000 and we may be forced into bankruptcy proceedings or involuntary receivership.
     
The following is a summary discussion of our cash flow:
     
Cash decreased by $19,000 for the six months ended December 31, 2009 from $19,000 at June 30, 2009 to $0.
     
We reported cash flow used in operations of $65,000 consisting primarily of our loss of $4,923,000, and partially offset by increases in accounts payable and accrued liabilities and amounts due to related parties of $283,000 and an asset impairment charge of $4,570,000.
     
Cash provided by in investing activities consisted of a reduction in long-term deposits of $9,000
    
 Cash provided by financing activities consisted of proceeds from the sale of common stock of $37,000.
     
Our long-term debt includes approximately $3,733,000 of principal payments and accrued interest expenses that are due within the next year. We are currently in default on all these amounts. We cannot be sure that our future working capital or cash flows will be sufficient to meet our debt obligations and commitments. Any insufficiency and failure by us to renegotiate such existing debt obligations and commitments would have a negative impact on our business and financial condition, and may result in legal claims by our creditors. Our ability to generate cash flow from operations sufficient to make scheduled payments on our debt as they become due will depend on our future performance and our ability to implement our business strategy successfully. Failure to pay our interest expense or make our principal payments would result in a default. A default, if not waived, could result in acceleration of our indebtedness, in which case the debt would become immediately due and payable. If this occurs, we may be forced to sell or liquidate assets, obtain additional equity capital or refinance or restructure all or a portion of our outstanding debt on terms that may be less favorable to us.  In the event that we are unable to do so, we may be left without sufficient liquidity and we may not be able to repay our debt and the lenders may be able to foreclose on our assets or force us into bankruptcy proceedings or involuntary receivership.
    
Off-Balance Sheet Transactions
     
There are no off-balance sheet items, and all transactions are in U.S. dollars, and we are not subject to currency fluctuations or similar market risks.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

Not Applicable.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

Our management with the participation and under the supervision of our Principal Executive and Financial Officer reviewed and evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined by Rule 240.13a-15(e) or 15d-15(e)) of the Exchange Act Rule 13a-15 as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based upon his evaluation, our Principal Executive and Financial Officer concluded that, as of the end of such period, our disclosure controls and procedures are not effective as of the end of the second quarter of fiscal 2010 and that material weaknesses exist in our internal control structure, due in particular to the lack of appropriate resources dedicated to external financial reporting.
     
There were no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting that occurred during the three months ended December 31, 2009 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1.  Legal Proceedings.

On August 20, 2009, Lucy Rasmussen filed a lawsuit against us in the Orange County Superior Court of the State of New York, Case No. 2009-10054, for non-payment of a $500,000 note payable that became due on February 15, 2008. The note payable is in default. We have been and will continue to attempt to negotiate a reasonable settlement, including an extension to this note.  This note included accrued interest is included in Notes payable reported as a current liability on our accompanying balance sheet.

In the normal course of operations, we may have disagreements or disputes with employees, vendors or customers. These disputes are seen by our management as a normal part of business, and except as set forth above, there are no pending actions currently or no threatened actions that management believes would have a significant material impact on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Item 1A. Risk Factors.
 
The risks described below are the ones we believe are the most important for you to consider, these risks are not the only ones that we face. If events anticipated by any of the following risks actually occur, our business, operating results or financial condition could suffer and the trading price of our common stock could decline.

We may be unable to afford ongoing administrative and reporting.  Our ability to continue administrative functions and preparation of SEC reports, including payment of our auditors and advisors, will be limited if we do not generate sufficient working capital through financing activities or the sale of assets.  If we are unable to pay the expenses associated with such reporting activities, we will be at risk of losing our OTCBB listing, and will be delinquent in our filings with the SEC.  Either or both of the forgoing adverse outcomes will have an impact on the market for our shares, and potentially on our long term survival.

                We may be unable to execute our acquisition growth strategy. Our ability to execute our growth strategy depends in part on our ability to identify and acquire desirable acquisition candidates. The consolidation of our operations with the operations of acquired companies, including the consolidation of systems, procedures, personnel and facilities, the relocation of staff, and the achievement of anticipated cost savings, economies of scale and other business efficiencies, may present significant challenges to our management, particularly if several acquisitions occur at the same time. In short, we cannot be assured that: desirable acquisition candidates exist or will be identified, we will be able to acquire any of the candidates identified, we will effectively consolidate companies which are acquired and fully or timely realize the expected cost savings, economies of scale or business efficiencies, or any acquisitions will be profitable or accretive to our earnings.
 
                We face challenges in attracting and retaining a qualified and experienced management team. Our success will depend largely on our ability to hire and retain qualified individuals to operate our business including, our directors, senior management and other key personnel as wells as board of director members. The loss of the services of any of these key personnel could have a material adverse effect on our business and financial results. Our failure to attract and retain qualified personnel could have a material adverse effect on our business and financial condition.
 
                Integration of proposed acquisitions poses certain risks, and we do not currently have historical experience upon which to base an evaluation of the future prospects of success.  We have only a limited operating history upon which to base an evaluation of our business and our prospects. There can be no assurance that our senior management team will be able to manage the business successfully and implement our operating and growth strategies effectively. Our effective integration of acquired businesses into our organization and operations is and will continue to be important to our growth and future financial performance. A part of our strategy is to achieve economies of scale and operating efficiencies by increasing our size through acquisitions. These goals may not be achieved even if we effectively combine the operations of acquired businesses with our existing operations due to factors beyond our control, such as market position or customer base. Because of our limited operating history, there can be no assurance that our senior management team will succeed in integrating our future acquisitions. Any difficulties we encounter in the integration process could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
 
                Additional factors may negatively impact our acquisition growth strategy. Our acquisition strategy may require spending significant amounts of capital. If we are unable to obtain needed financing on acceptable terms, we may need to reduce the scope of our acquisition growth strategy, which could have a material adverse effect on our growth prospects. The intense competition among our potential competitors pursuing the same acquisition candidates may increase purchase prices for acquisitions and increase our capital requirements and/or prevent us from acquiring certain acquisition candidates. If any of the aforementioned factors force us to alter our growth strategy, our financial condition, results of operations and growth prospects could be adversely affected.

 
22

 
 
                We may not be able to attract the required capital, through either debt or equity financings, in order to complete strategic acquisitions or make required purchases of capital equipment needed to conduct our operations efficiently, either of which could adversely effect our financial condition and ability to execute on our business plan.  We anticipate that any future business acquisitions will be financed through cash from potential operations, borrowings, the issuance of shares of our common stock and/or seller financing. If acquisition candidates are unwilling to accept, or we are unwilling to issue, shares of our common stock as part of the consideration for such acquisitions, we may be required to use more of our available cash resources or debt, to the extent it is available, to fund such acquisitions. To the extent that cash from potential operations and debt are insufficient to fund acquisitions, we will require additional equity and/or debt financing, the terms of which may be unfavorable or unavailable. There can be no assurance that we will have sufficient existing capital resources or be able to raise sufficient additional capital resources on terms satisfactory to us to meet any or all of the foregoing capital requirements.
 
                There may be undisclosed liabilities in the businesses that we acquire which we fail or are unable to discover which could have a material adverse effect on our operations and business conditions.  As a successor owner to entities we acquire, we often assume prior liabilities incurred and there can be no assurances that these liabilities are properly disclosed to us. Even if we obtain legally enforceable representations, warranties, covenants and indemnities from the sellers of such businesses, we may not be successful in fully covering the liabilities. Certain environmental liabilities, even if we do not expressly assume them, may be imposed upon us under various regulatory schemes and legal theories, and as such may materially affect our ability to operate and grow our business.
 
                Larger competitors may compete with us for acquisition targets, making it more difficult for us to acquire businesses that fit within our business strategy, or increasing the cost of making such acquisitions, either of which could negatively affect our performance.  We compete for acquisition candidates with other entities, some of which have greater financial resources than us. Increased competition for acquisition candidates may result in fewer acquisition opportunities being available to us, as well as less attractive acquisition terms, including increased purchase prices. These circumstances may increase acquisition costs to levels that are beyond our financial capability or pricing parameters or that may have an adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition. The ability to utilize our securities as consideration for potential acquisitions may depend in large part on the relative market price and capital appreciation prospects of the common stock compared to the equity securities of our competitors. If the market price of our common stock were to decline materially over a prolonged period of time, our acquisition program could be materially adversely affected.
 
                     Our planned mining operations are inherently subject to conditions that could affect levels of production and production costs at particular mines for varying lengths of time and could reduce our profitability.  Although we have no currently planned coal mining operations, planning those operations are subject to conditions or events beyond our control that could disrupt operations, affect production and increase the cost of mining for varying lengths of time and negatively affect our profitability. These conditions or events include, (i) unplanned equipment failures, which could interrupt production and require us to expend significant sums to repair our capital equipment that we would use to remove the soil that overlies coal deposits; (ii) geological conditions, such as variations in the quality of the coal produced from a particular seam, variations in the thickness of coal seams and variations in the amounts of rock and other natural materials that overlie the coal that we are mining; (iii) unexpected delays and difficulties in acquiring, maintaining or renewing necessary permits or mining or surface rights; (iv) unavailability of mining equipment and supplies and increases in the price of mining equipment and supplies; (v) shortage of qualified labor and a significant rise in labor costs; (vi) fluctuations in the cost of industrial supplies, including steel-based supplies, natural gas, diesel fuel and oil; (vii) unexpected or accidental surface subsidence from underground mining; (viii) accidental mine water discharges, fires, explosions or similar mining accidents; (ix) regulatory issues involving the plugging of and mining through oil and gas wells that penetrate the coal seams we mine; and (x) adverse weather conditions and natural disasters, such as heavy rains and flooding. If any of these conditions or events occur in the future at any of our mining complexes, our cost of mining and any delay or halt of production either permanently or for varying lengths of time could adversely affect our operating results.
 
                We have reclamation obligations and if we are required to honor reclamation obligations that have been assumed by previous mine operators, we could be required to expend greater amounts than we currently anticipate, which could affect our profitability in future periods.  We are responsible under federal and state regulations for the ultimate reclamation of the mines we operate. In some cases, the previous mine operators have assumed these liabilities by contract and have posted bonds or have funded escrows to secure their obligations. We estimate our future liabilities for reclamation and other mine-closing costs from time to time based on a variety of assumptions. If our assumptions are incorrect, we could be required in future periods to spend more on reclamation and mine-closing activities than we currently estimate, which could harm our profitability. Likewise, if previous mine operators default on the unfunded portion of their contractual obligations to pay for reclamation, we could be forced to make these expenditures ourselves and the cost of reclamation could exceed any amount we might recover in litigation, which would also increase our costs and reduce our profitability.
 
                Defects in title or loss of any leasehold interests in our properties could limit our ability to mine these properties or result in significant unanticipated costs.  We conduct some of our mining operations on properties that we lease. A title defect or the loss of any lease could adversely affect our ability to mine the associated reserves. Because title to most of our leased properties and mineral rights is not usually verified until we make a commitment to develop a property, which may not occur until after we have obtained necessary permits and completed exploration of the property, our right to mine some of our reserves may, in the future, be adversely affected if defects in title or boundaries exist. In order to obtain leases or mining contracts to conduct our mining operations on property where these defects exist, we may in the future have to incur unanticipated costs. In addition, we may not be able to successfully negotiate new leases or mining contracts for properties containing additional reserves or maintain our leasehold interests in properties where we have not commenced mining operations during the term of the lease.

 
23

 

                Estimates of proven and probable reserves are subject to considerable uncertainty. Such estimates are, to a large extent, based on interpretations of geologic data obtained from drill holes and other sampling techniques. We use feasibility studies to derive estimates of capital and operating costs based upon anticipated tonnage and grades of minerals to be mined and processed, the costs of comparable facilities, the costs of operating and processing equipment and other factors. Actual operating costs and economic returns on projects may differ significantly from original estimates. Further, it may take many years from the initial phase of exploration before production is possible and, during that time, the economic feasibility of exploiting a discovery may change.
 
                We may not be able to raise sufficient capital or generate sufficient cash flow to meet our debt service requirements. As of December 31, 2009, we had indebtedness of $5,097,000 of which $3,733,000 is due in less than one year. We cannot be assured that our future working capital or cash flows will be sufficient to meet our debt obligations and commitments. Any insufficiency would have a negative impact on our business. Our ability to generate cash flow from operations sufficient to make scheduled payments on our debt as they become due will depend on our future performance and our ability to implement our business strategy successfully. Failure to pay our interest expense or make our principal payments would result in a default. A default, if not waived, could result in acceleration of our indebtedness, in which case the debt would become immediately due and payable. If this occurs, we may be forced to reduce or delay capital expenditures and implementation of our business strategy, sell assets, obtain additional equity capital or refinance or restructure all or a portion of our outstanding debt on terms that may be less favorable to us. In the event that we are unable to do so, we may be left without sufficient liquidity and we may not be able to repay our debt and the lenders will be able to foreclose on our assets.
 
Risks Related to our Industry
 
                Strategic growth through acquisitions is dependent on our ability to internally grow our logistics infrastructure, and there is no historical perspective to validate our belief that we can attain certain gross margins competitively, the failure of which would adversely affect our financial condition.  Our growth strategy includes (i) expanding through acquisitions and (ii) generating internal growth of its infrastructure and logistics capabilities. Our ability to execute our growth strategy will depend on a number of factors, including the success of existing and emerging competition, the availability of acquisition targets, the ability to maintain profit margins in the face of competitive pressures, the ability to continue to recruit, train and retain qualified employees, the strength of demand for our services and the availability of capital to support our growth.
 
                Rapid growth could create risks of over leverage or undercapitalization to meet our obligations which could materially impact our financial condition and strategy.  If we are able to execute our growth strategy, we may experience periods of rapid growth. Such growth, if it occurs, could place a significant strain on our management, operational, financial and other resources. Our ability to maintain and manage our growth effectively will require us to expand our management information systems capabilities and our operational and financial systems and controls. Moreover, we will need to attract, train, motivate, retain and manage additional senior managers, technical professionals and other employees, as well as integrate accounting and reporting for disclosure controls and compliance with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. Any failure to expand our operational and financial systems and controls or to recruit and integrate appropriate personnel at a pace consistent with our revenue growth could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
 
Increased consolidation and competition within the coal industry may adversely affect our ability to sell coal, and excess production capacity in the industry could put downward pressure on coal prices.  During the last several years, the U.S. coal industry has experienced increased consolidation, which has contributed to the industry becoming more competitive. According to the NMA, the top ten coal producers in 1994 accounted for approximately 45% of total domestic coal production. By 2004, however, the top ten coal producers’ share had increased to approximately 69% of total domestic coal production. Consequently, some of our competitors in the domestic coal industry are major coal producers who have greater financial resources than we do. The intense competition among coal producers may impact our ability to retain or attract customers and may, therefore, adversely affect our future revenue and profitability. Recent increases in coal prices could encourage the development of expanded coal producing capacity in the United States. Any resulting overcapacity from existing or new competitors could reduce coal prices and, therefore, our revenue.
 
                We may be unable to obtain and renew permits necessary for our operations, which would reduce our production, cash flow and profitability.  Mining companies must obtain numerous permits that strictly regulate environmental and health and safety matters in connection with mining, including permits issued by various federal and state agencies and regulatory bodies. We believe that we are in the process of obtaining the necessary permits to mine our developed reserves at our mining complexes. However, as we commence mining our undeveloped reserves, we will need to apply for and obtain the required permits. The permitting rules are complex and change frequently, making our ability to comply with the applicable requirements more difficult or even impossible, thereby precluding continuing or future mining operations. Private individuals and the public at large have certain rights to comment on and otherwise engage in the permitting process, including through intervention in the courts. Accordingly, the permits we need for our mining operations may not be issued, or, if issued, may not be issued in a timely fashion, or may involve requirements that may be changed or interpreted in a manner which restricts our ability to conduct our mining operations or to do so profitably. An inability to conduct our mining operations pursuant to applicable permits would reduce our production, cash flow and profitability.
