GLOSSARY OF TERMS

The following is a glossary of terms unique to our industry:

Low Sulfur Diesel #2 (LSD #2) - #2 grade diesel fuel processed to reduce Sulfur emissions. This is a carbon based fuel, made from crude oil, and is the current standard of diesel fuel used to power trucks, trains, and ships.

Ultra Low Sulfur Diesel #2 (ULSD #2) - #2 grade diesel fuel processed to remove a greater level of sulfur than the LSD #2 above. ULSD #2 is to replace LSD #2 as the government standard sulfur level of diesel fuel used for trucking, rail, and marine transportation. This product is currently being produced, but its use is currently not a requirement. This fuel will be more expensive than LSD #2 and requires additives to increase lubricity lost in the Sulfur reduction process.

Traditional #2 Diesel Fuel- either LSD #2 or ULSD #2.

Bio-fuel – fuel derived from bio based sources. This category of fuel includes biodiesel, ethanol and G2 Diesel.

biodiesel – a form of Bio-fuel produced by combining a form of feedstock oil (Soybean, Palm, etc) and ethanol/methanol alcohol and catalyst. This fuel can power diesel engines in the same manner as traditional #2 grade diesel fuel.

G2 Diesel - a form of Bio-fuel produced by combining soybean oil, ethanol alcohol and a catalyst. This method of bio-fuel manufacturing is based on the company’s proprietary manufacturing process as described herein.

Blended biodiesel – a blend of biodiesel (which depending upon the context may refer to our G2 Diesel or other competitors’ biodiesel) and traditional #2 grade diesel fuel.

B5 – a blend of fuel with 5% G2 Diesel or biodiesel and 95% traditional #2 grade diesel fuel.

B20 – a blend of fuel with 20% G2 Diesel or biodiesel and 80% traditional #2 diesel fuel.

B100 – 100% G2 Diesel or biodiesel.

Ethanol – alcohol type generally derived from bio-based sources such as corn.

Methanol – Toxic Alcohol type generally derived from petroleum sources.

Catalyst – proprietary blend of materials used in the manufacturing process.

Gel Point (Pour Point) - temperature where fuel ceases to flow properly in fuel systems.

EU-27 – represents a group of 27 industrial countries in the European Union.

PROSPECTUS SUMMARY

          This summary highlights information contained elsewhere in this prospectus. This summary is not complete and does not contain all of the information you should consider before investing in the common stock. You should read the entire prospectus carefully, including the “Risk Factors” section and the financial statements and related notes.

Overview

          11 Good Energy, Inc. (the “Company”) is a Delaware corporation formed on May 23, 2007 for the purposes of developing, testing, manufacturing and distributing bio-fuel with energy related plans and pursuits relying on the commercialization of our proprietary fuel product, G2 Diesel, as discussed below.

          We have developed many contacts and contracts in our business, created an experienced Management team and have cash and cash equivalents of $4.9 million. As of December 31, 2009, we have finalized the principal development of our proprietary process and have designed, built and currently operate a fuel manufacturing facility.

          In October of 2007, our company completed the purchase of an existing biodiesel manufacturer, 11 Good’s Energy, LTD (“11 Good’s”), a limited liability company (becoming our wholly owned subsidiary), formed in the State of Ohio in February 2006. Historically, our subsidiary has been a development stage company, which has primarily engaged in research activities to develop a proprietary manufacturing process to produce bio-fuel for diesel applications.

Principal Products

          G2 Diesel, our primary product, is a form of Bio-fuel produced by combining soybean oil, ethanol alcohol and a catalyst. This method of bio-fuel manufacturing is based on our proprietary manufacturing process as described herein. Our manufacturing process also produces a crude glycerin by-product. Our goal is to market and distribute, and improve as we may be able, our G2 Diesel product first nationally and later internationally. Energy is one of our nation’s primary concerns due to a combination of health, commercial and even national security considerations, and the concern includes development of cleaner, cost effective, and safer fuels.

Marketing and Distribution

          As of December 31, 2009, we have contracts with vendors, advisors and professionals nationally assisting us in our business, but have no firm contracts or backlog of orders from customers to purchase our G2 Diesel fuel or our crude glycerin by-product described herein. Through our past and current testing programs, we are building relationships with trucking fleets, marine diesel and rail companies requiring locomotive diesel fuel. The company’s sales and marketing focus consists of building lasting relationships with major transportation companies to provide large quantities of G2 Diesel. We expect order flow to occur once these companies complete their testing programs, which has proven to be part of the process to reach a contract. We can provide no assurances that Management’s plans will be realized, that there will be sufficient order flow of G2 Diesel fuel to support our intended operations or that we will be able to operate profitably and/or on a positive cash flow basis in the future.

          We will attempt to sell our crude glycerin by-products to manufacturers of cosmetics, toiletries, pharmaceuticals and food products, since we do not have the capability of refining the glycerin. Our ability to sell this by-product will be limited to those manufacturers who require crude glycerin and have the capability to refine it. We can provide no assurances that we will be successful in selling our crude glycerin by-product; among other reasons, our major focus will be the sale of our G2 Diesel. See Risk Factors.”

Competitive Advantages

          Though we may face competition from larger more established providers with greater resources and penetration, Management believes competitive advantages of the company’s G2 Diesel are multi-faceted. Our proprietary manufacturing process produces a clean natural fuel that testing has shown, reduces harmful emissions produced by diesel engines. The company’s production process is cost efficient, it produces no waste water and it does not require natural gas. (Natural gas is a costly component used by others in manufacturing biodiesel duel.)

Risk Factors

          We are subject to a variety of risks which may be adverse to our company, our business, and aspects of the ownership, and sale of our securities. There is no assurance we will succeed in our plans. See Risk Factors starting on page 8.

Facilities and Production Capacity

          We maintain our corporate office at 4450 Belden Village St., Suite 800, NW, Canton, OH 44718, and our telephone number is 330-492-FUEL. In November 2009, we completed construction of our bio-fuel manufacturing facility or plant in Magnolia, Ohio. The facility is currently configured to produce between 4.6 million and 6.4 million gallons of G2 Diesel per year with an ability to expand capacity as the market for G2 Diesel fuel grows. From November 1, 2009 to April 1, 2010, we produced an approximate total of 150,000 gallons of G2 Diesel at our plant.

          This year we plan efforts to increase sales and also locate a site to purchase or lease land to build a second production facility. The costs of the new production facility could exceed our cash reserves, with the actual cost of this new facility depending upon many factors, including, without limitation, the location and cost of the land, demolition costs of existing facilities (if any) on the site, environmental concerns (if any) and the size of the new plant. Further, as a development stage corporation with limited sales to date, we will need our existing cash resources to support our intended sales efforts from our existing plant in Magnolia, Ohio as well as other working capital needs. While Management anticipates generating operating cash flow over the next 12 months, which could be substantial, we cannot provide any assurances that this will occur. Accordingly, we will likely require additional financing to support the purchase and construction of a second facility and to supplement our operations. We cannot assure are plans, including establishment of the additional plant, will succeed. See “Risk Factors.”

Recent Financings

          Over a period of approximately two years, we borrowed principal of $7,930,000, which became due and payable on June 30, 2009, subject to each note holder’s right to convert the principal and accrued interest thereon into common stock and warrants of the company at a 15% discount to the per share offering price of the next established equity raise. Of the $7,930,000, $6,498,708 of principal and accrued interest thereon were converted into 2,548,513 shares of common stock and warrants to purchase 3,228,523 shares of common stock, each exercisable at $2.55 per share and we redeemed a total of $1,967,916 in principal debt for cash plus accrued interest therein. This prospectus includes the resale of a portion of these conversion shares.

          From August 2009 through March 2010, the company completed an equity financing of $12,052,000 from the sale of 4,017,333 shares of common stock and Class A warrants to purchase 2,008,667 shares of common stock, exercisable at $4.50 per share. We also issued agency warrants to purchase 686,239 shares, exercisable at prices ranging from $2.55 to $4.50 per share. This prospectus covers the resale of the shares issuable upon exercise of the agency warrants as well as a portion of the shares sold in the equity financing. The shares issued by us are the subject of this prospectus.

          This list is not comprehensive. Similar terms, variations of those terms, and the negative of those terms may also identify forward-looking statements.

          The risk factors discussed in this prospectus are cautionary statements. They identify some of the factors that could cause actual results to be significantly different from those predicted in the forward-looking statements. The forward-looking statements were compiled by us based upon assumptions it considered reasonable. These assumptions are subject to significant business, economic, and competitive uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are beyond our control. Therefore, forecasted and actual results will likely vary, and these variations may be material.

          There can be no assurance that the statements, estimates, and projections contained in this prospectus will be achieved. Thus, we make no representation or warranty as to their accuracy or completeness. In addition, we cannot guarantee that any forecast in this prospectus will be achieved.

          These forward-looking statements were compiled as of the date of this prospectus. We do not intend to update these statements, except as required by law. Therefore, you should evaluate them by considering any changes that may have occurred after the date these forward-looking statements appear.

          We cannot guarantee the assumptions relating to the forward-looking statements will prove to be accurate. Therefore, while these forward-looking statements contain our best good faith estimates as of the date of this prospectus, we urge you and your advisors to review these forward-looking statements, to consider the assumptions upon which they are based, and to ascertain their reasonableness.

RISK FACTORS

          An investment in our common stock involves major risks. Before you invest in our common stock, you should be aware that there are various risks, including those described below. You should carefully consider these risk factors together with all of the other information included in this prospectus before you decide to purchase shares of our common stock. You should carefully consider the following risk factors, in addition to the other information presented in this prospectus, in evaluating us and our business. Any of the following risks, as well as other risks and uncertainties, could harm our business and financial results and cause the value of our securities to decline, which in turn could cause you to lose all or part of your investment.

We have a limited operating history, and our business may not be as successful as we envision.

          We are currently in an early stage of our current business plan. We have limited operating history with respect to the construction and operation of biodiesel refineries for our own use. Our limited operating history makes it difficult for potential investors to evaluate our business. Therefore, our proposed operations are subject to all of the risks inherent in the initial expenses, challenges, complications and delays frequently encountered in connection with the formation of any new business, as well as those risks that are specific to the biodiesel industry in general. Investors should evaluate an investment in our company in light of the problems and uncertainties frequently encountered by companies attempting to develop markets for new products, services and technologies. Despite best efforts, we may never overcome these obstacles to achieve financial success.

          Our business is speculative and dependent upon the implementation of our business plan, as well as our ability to enter into agreements with third parties for necessary financing, the provision of necessary feedstock sources, engineering, procurement and construction services and the sale and distribution of our biodiesel fuel on terms that will be commercially viable for us. There can be no assurance that our efforts will be successful or result in revenue or profit. There is no assurance that we will earn significant revenues or that our investors will not lose their entire investment.

          Possible need for substantial additional financing.

          This year we plan to locate a site to purchase or lease land to build a second production facility. While we have cash and cash equivalents of approximately $4,900,000 at December 31, 2009, the costs of a new production facility could exceed this amount, with the actual cost of this new facility depending upon many factors, including, without limitation, the location and cost of the land, demolition costs of existing facilities (if any) on the site, environmental concerns (if any) and the size of the new plant. Further, as a development stage corporation with limited sales to date, the company will need its existing cash resources to support our intended sales efforts from our existing plant in Magnolia, Ohio. Accordingly, we will likely require substantial additional financing to support the purchase and construction of a second facility and to support operations. We can provide no assurances the company will be able to obtain adequate financing on terms satisfactory to us, if at all.

We have yet to attain profitable operations and because we will need additional financing to fund our activities, there is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

          Our ability to continue to operate as a going concern is fully dependent upon our ability to obtain sufficient financing to continue our development and operational activities. The ability to achieve profitable operations is in direct correlation to our ability to raise sufficient financing. It is important to note that even if the appropriate financing is received, there is no guarantee that we will ever be able to operate profitably or derive any significant revenues from our operation. We will be required to raise additional financing to fully implement our entire business plan.

          There is no guarantee that we will ever operate profitably or even receive positive cash flows from full operations.

          Our products may not be accepted by the biodiesel industry.

          The company’s proprietary process is new to the biodiesel industry and management believes that it will change the biodiesel production process; all while using 95 to 99% renewable agricultural sources. However, we can provide no assurances that our G2 Diesel products will be accepted by the biodiesel industry or be blended in with other diesel fuel products.

          We have no firm contracts to purchase our G2 Diesel or crude glycerin by-product and we can provide no assurances that we will be able to sell our products at or near its stated capacity, if at all.

          As of December 31, 2009, we have no firm contracts or backlog of orders to purchase our G2 Diesel fuel or our crude glycerin by-product. We are currently building relationships with trucking fleets, marine diesel and rail companies requiring locomotive diesel fuel. We can provide no assurances that there will be sufficient order flow of G2 Diesel fuel or glycerin by-product to support our intended operations or that we will be able to operate profitably and/or on a positive cash flow basis in the future.

Our lack of diversification beyond the renewable bio-energy industry may increase our risk.

          We expect our primary source of revenue will come from renewable energy assets that generate cash flow from the sale of biodiesel, bio-ethanol and by products from the bio-fuels production process. Any diminution in the value of our assets or decrease in operating revenues could negatively affect our ability to become profitable. Further, the illiquid nature of the assets we own and intend to purchase could jeopardize our ability to satisfy our working capital needs or impair our ability to meet any debt obligations that may become due.

          Our G2 Diesel has been tested by Stark Area Regional Transit Authority (SARTA) and Wheeling Lake Erie Railroad and it may be tested by other entities. We can provide no assurances that our customers will be satisfied with test results.

          The Stark Area Regional Transit Authority in Northeastern Ohio has tested our G2 Diesel fuel. The Wheeling Lake Erie Railroad company, a short line rail with track located in Ohio and West Virginia has also tested our G2 Diesel fuel. While management believes that the foregoing entities are satisfied with their initial

8


testing results of our G2 Diesel, we can provide no assurances that additional testing by SARTA, Wheeling Lake Erie Railroad and other entities will lead to satisfactory results from the prospective of our clients.

          Our business is not diversified and we are dependent upon the operation of our plant in Magnolia, Ohio to produce biodiesel and glycerin for sale.

          Our success depends largely on our ability to profitably operate our biodiesel plant. We do not have any other lines of business or other sources of revenue if we are unable to operate our biodiesel plant and manufacture biodiesel and its by-product, crude glycerin. If we are forced to continue to operate at significantly less than capacity or cease operations at our biodiesel plant for any reason, our ability to produce sales revenue would be adversely affected. In such an event, our stockholders could lose some or all of their investment.

          Volatility in pricing, supply and demand could harm our ability to generate sales and profits.

          Our revenues will be greatly affected by the price at which we can sell our biodiesel and crude glycerin by-product. These prices can be volatile as a result of a number of factors over which we have no control. These factors include overall supply and demand, level of government support, and the availability and price of competing products, such as diesel fuel. Increased production of biodiesel may lead to lower prices. Any lowering of biodiesel prices may negatively impact our ability to generate profits. Over supply of our crude glycerin by product could result in us being forced to pay third parties to accept our crude glycerin by-product.

          Technological advances could cause our plant to become uncompetitive or obsolete.

          It is possible that technological advances in the processes and procedures for processing biodiesel could make the processes and procedures that we utilize at our plant less efficient or obsolete. Our Magnolia, Ohio plant is a single-purpose facility and has no use other than the production of biodiesel and crude glycerin. Much of the cost of the plant is attributable to the cost of production technology which may be impractical or impossible to update. If we are unable to adopt or incorporate technological advances, our biodiesel production methods could be in the future less efficient than those of our competitors. If our competitors develop, obtain or license technology that is superior to ours or that makes our technology obsolete, we may be required to incur significant costs to enhance or acquire new technology so that our biodiesel production remains competitive. Alternatively, we may be required to seek third-party licenses, which may be unavailable and/or could result in significant expenditures. These costs could negatively impact our financial performance by increasing our operating costs and reducing our net income.

          Intense competition in the biodiesel industry may affect our ability to sell biodiesel at profitable prices.

          We operate in a very competitive environment. We face competition for capital, labor, management, feedstock (such as soy oil) and other resources. Some of our competitors may be substantially larger than us and may have significantly greater name recognition and financial, sales and marketing, technical, and other resources. These competitors may also have more established distribution channels and may be able to respond more rapidly to new or emerging technologies and changes in customer requirements or devote greater resources to biodiesel development, promotion and sale of their products. In 2009, approximately 500 million gallons of biodiesel were produced in the United States. We expect that additional biodiesel producers will enter the market if the demand for biodiesel increases. We may not be able to compete successfully or such competition may reduce our ability to generate the profits necessary to operate our plant.

          Competition from other sources of fuel and diesel fuel lubricity additives may decrease the demand for our biodiesel.

          The EPA has issued regulations to reduce the amount of sulfur in diesel fuel in order to improve air quality. The removal of sulfur from diesel fuel reduces its lubricity which must be corrected with fuel additives, such as biodiesel which has inherent lubricating properties. Our biodiesel plant is expected to compete with producers of other diesel additives having similar lubricity values as biodiesel, such as petroleum-based lubricity

9


additives. Many major oil companies produce these petroleum-based lubricity additives and strongly favor their use because they may be used in lower concentrations than biodiesel. In addition, much of the infrastructure in place is for petroleum-based additives. As a result, petroleum-based additives may be more cost-effective than biodiesel. Due to such competition, it may be difficult to market our biodiesel, which could adversely affect our ability to generate revenues.

          Because our activities may involve the use of hazardous materials, we may be subject to claims relating to improper handling, storage or disposal of these materials that could be time consuming and costly.

          If we use biological and hazardous materials in a manner that causes injury, we may be liable for damages. Our research and development activities may involve the controlled use of potentially harmful biological materials as well as hazardous materials or chemicals. We cannot completely eliminate the risk of accidental contamination or injury from the use, storage, handling or disposal of these materials. In the event of contamination or injury, we could be held liable for damages that result, and any liability could exceed our resources. We are subject to federal, state and local laws and regulations governing the use, storage, handling and disposal of these materials and specified waste products. The cost of compliance with these laws and regulations could be significant. Our proven practices when handling these materials has shown to mitigate these risks.

          Cold weather may cause biodiesel to gel, which could have an adverse impact on our ability to successfully market our biodiesel.

          In colder temperatures, lower biodiesel blends are recommended to avoid fuel system plugging. This may cause the demand for our biodiesel in northern markets to diminish during the colder months. The tendency of biodiesel to gel in colder weather may also result in long-term storage problems. At low temperatures, fuel may need to be stored in a heated building or heated storage tanks. This may result in a decrease in demand for our product in colder climates due to increased storage costs.

          Excess production of glycerin may cause the price of glycerin to decline, thereby adversely affecting our ability to generate revenue from the sale of glycerin.

          As biodiesel production has increased, the glycerin market has become increasingly saturated, resulting in significant declines in the price of glycerin. Any further excess glycerin production capacity may limit our ability to market our glycerin by-product, and even result in us paying for the disposal of glycerin, which would negatively impact our revenues.

          There may not be an adequate supply of feedstock to supply the demands of the biodiesel industry, which could threaten the viability of our plant.

          There may not be an adequate supply of feedstock to supply the demand of the food products and biodiesel industries. Consequently, the price of feedstock may rise to the point where it threatens the viability of our pricing model. If we experience a sustained period of high feedstock costs, such pricing may significantly limit our ability to market our product.

          Increased insurance risk could negatively affect our business

          Insurance and surety companies may take actions that could negatively affect our business, including increasing insurance premiums, requiring higher self-insured retentions and deductibles, requiring additional collateral or covenants on surety bonds, reducing limits, restricting coverages, imposing exclusions, and refusing to underwrite certain risks and classes of business. Any of these would adversely affect our ability to obtain appropriate insurance coverage at reasonable costs which would have a material adverse effect on our proposed business.

10


The loss of key management personnel could harm the company’s business and prospects.

          The company’s success may be dependent upon its ability to retain the services of its key executives and founder, in particular, the services of Frederick C. Berndt, Chief Executive Officer, Gary R. Smith, the company’s Chief Operations Officer, and Daniel T. Lapp, the company’s Chief Financial Officer. The ability of the company to pursue its business strategy effectively will also depend upon, among other factors, the successful recruitment and retention of additional highly skilled and experienced managerial, marketing, engineering and technical personnel. There can be no assurance that the company will be able to retain or recruit such personnel.

                    Loss of or ineligibility for favorable tax benefits for biodiesel production could hinder our ability to operate at a profit and reduce the value of our units.

          The biodiesel industry and our business are assisted by various federal biodiesel incentives such as the subsidy for small agri-biodiesel producers. These tax incentives for the biodiesel industry may not continue, or, if they continue, the incentives may not be at the same level. The elimination or reduction of tax incentives to the biodiesel industry could reduce the market for biodiesel, which could reduce profits by making it more costly or difficult to produce and sell biodiesel.

          Our operating subsidiary is subject to a court order preventing the use of our products from being sold as a specific purpose additive.

          Our operating subsidiary, a consultant to the company and an employee are subject to a court order dated May 22, 2006 and are enjoined as follows:

 

 

Defendants shall not directly or indirectly for five years from the date of this (court ordered) entry blend or manufacture bio-based or petroleum based lubricants, greases, fuel conditioners, additives, and cleaners (fuels and glycerin and glycerol are excluded);

Defendant 11 Good’s shall not blend or manufacture lubricants, greases, fuel conditioners, additives, and cleaners using glycerin and glycerol for a period of 2 years from the date of this (court ordered) entry;

Defendant Harnar shall never for his lifetime disclose Plaintiff’s (i.e. Renewable Lubricants, Inc.) formulas and processes for bio-based or petroleum based lubricants, greases, fuel conditioners, fuel and additives, and fuel cleaners to any of the other Defendants or any entity or person; and

Defendants shall not sell bio-based lubricants, greases, fuel conditions, fuel additives, and fuel cleaners for two years from the date of this (court ordered) entry unless such products are purchased from Plaintiff.

          We can provide no assurances that the sale of products, as fuel and which is taxed as fuel; will not be determined by a court of law to be an additive or otherwise in violation of the Court Order. Any such violation of the Court Order as determined by a court of law could materially and adversely affect our operations.

          Business expansion poses numerous risks that could limit the company’s growth and financial prospects.

          The company’s management intends to aggressively expand the company’s business as capital resources permit. The company may not be successful in managing any future growth or raising additional capital. In order to manage this expansion and to grow in the future, the company will need to expand or enhance management, manufacturing, research and development and sales and marketing capabilities. The company may not be able to hire the management, staff or other personnel required to do so. As the company grows it may not be able to install adequate control systems in an efficient and timely manner, and current or planned operational systems, procedures and controls may not be adequate to support future operations or new acquisitions. Difficulties in installing and implementing new systems, procedures and controls may significantly burden management and internal resources.

Our operations are subject to various regulatory schemes, including environmental regulations, and failure to comply with such regulations could harm our business, results of operations and financial condition.

11


          All phases of designing, constructing and operating biodiesel production facilities present environmental risks and hazards. We are subject to environmental regulation implemented or imposed by a variety of federal, state and municipal laws and regulations as well as international conventions. Among other things, environmental legislation provides for restrictions and prohibitions on spills and discharges, as well as emissions of various substances produced in association with biodiesel fuel operations. Legislation also requires that facility sites be operated, maintained, abandoned and reclaimed in such a way that would satisfy applicable regulatory authorities. Compliance with such legislation can require significant expenditures and a breach may result in the imposition of fines and penalties, some of which may be material. Environmental legislation is evolving in a manner we expect may result in stricter standards and enforcement, larger fines, penalties and liability, as well as potentially increased capital expenditures and operating costs. The discharge of pollutants into the air, soil or water may give rise to liabilities to governments and third parties, and may require us to incur costs to remedy such discharge.

          Failure to comply with government regulations could subject us to civil and criminal penalties require us to forfeit property rights and may affect the value of our assets or our ability to conduct our business. We may also be required to take corrective actions, including, but not limited to, installing additional equipment, which could require us to make substantial capital expenditures. We could also be required to indemnify our directors, officers and employees in connection with any expenses or liabilities that they may incur individually in connection with regulatory action against them. These could result in a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

12


          Future terrorist attacks or related disasters may impact the company’s profitability and ability to operate.

          The terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001, have had an adverse impact on various regions of the US and on a wide range of industries. The terrorist attacks, the allied military response and subsequent developments may impact the US and global economies and may adversely affect our future results of operations. We are unable to determine at this time the extent of the impact and whether these events will negatively affect the operations or profitability of the company. In the future, civil unrest, fears of economic recession, war and additional acts of terrorism may continue to impact the US and global economies and financial markets and could adversely affect the business of the company.

          The obstacles to procurement and enforcement of our intellectual property that we have or may develop and proprietary rights could harm our competitive position by allowing competitors access to our proprietary technology that we may develop and to introduce competing products. Costly litigation may be necessary to protect our intellectual property rights. We may be subject to claims alleging the violation of the intellectual property rights of others.

          Our products and related intellectual property rely primarily on a combination of trademark, copyright, patent and trade secret laws and other methods to protect our proprietary rights. As of the date of this Prospectus, we have pending international (PCT) and Canadian patent applications, and we are considering additional filings in the future including, but not necessarily limited to, national stage entry applications based on the international application. We place considerable importance on obtaining patent and trade secret protection for our technologies, products and/or processes. Our success will depend at least in part on our ability, and the ability of any of our licensors, to obtain and keep proprietary rights in our products and processes, which permit us to exclude others from taking commercial advantage of what we consider to be our inventions, and prevent others from using our trade secrets; if we fail to secure patents and other intellectual property rights that cover our products and technologies, we may be unable to derive as much financial return on commercialization of our products as we would if such rights were obtained. The standards which the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) utilizes in deciding whether to grant patents can change, which may result in us being unable to determine the type and extent of any future patent claims that will be issued to us or to our licensors in the future, if any patent claims are issued at all, and the fees associated with filing and prosecuting patent applications may increase significantly, which might result in us incurring higher expenses and adversely affect our intellectual property strategy.

          The commercial success of our products might also be affected by the intellectual property rights of others. We intend to operate in a way that does not result in willful infringement of patent, trade secret or other intellectual property rights of other parties. Nevertheless, there can be no assurance that a claim of infringement will not be asserted against us or that any such assertion will not result in a judgment or order requiring us to obtain a license in order to make, use, or sell our products. There can be no assurance that third parties will not assert infringement claims against us in the future with respect to any products. Any such claims or litigation, with or without merit, could be costly and a diversion of management’s attention, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results and financial condition. Adverse determinations in such claims or litigation could harm our business, operating results and financial condition.

          A third party may claim that we are using inventions in which it has patent rights and may go to court to stop us from engaging in our normal operations and activities, such as research, development and the sale of any future products. Such lawsuits are expensive and would consume time and other resources. There is a risk that the court will decide that we are infringing the third party’s patents and order us to stop the infringing activities. In addition, there is a risk that a court will order us to pay the other party damages for having infringed their patents. Moreover, there is no guarantee that the prevailing patent owner would offer us a license so that we could continue to engage in activities claimed by the patent, or that such a license, if made available to us, could be acquired on commercially acceptable terms. In addition, third parties may, in the future, assert other intellectual property infringement claims against us with respect to our products, technologies or other matters.

13


          International patent protection is particularly uncertain, and if we are involved in opposition proceedings in foreign countries, we may have to expend substantial sums and management resources.

          Patent law outside the United States is even more uncertain than in the United States and is currently undergoing review and revision in many countries. Further, the laws of some foreign countries may not protect our intellectual property rights to the same extent as United States laws. We may participate in opposition proceedings to determine the validity of our foreign patents or our competitors’ foreign patents, which could result in substantial costs and diversion of our efforts.

          We are subject to government regulations creating burdensome costs.

          Various aspects of our operations are or may become subject to federal, state or local laws, rules and regulations, any of which may change from time to time. Costs arising out of any regulatory developments could be time-consuming, expensive and could divert management resources and attention and, consequently, could adversely affect our business operations and financial performance.

          We may suffer losses from product liability claims if our products cause harm.

          Any of our products that we may sell and develop in the future could cause adverse events and could lead to product liability lawsuits. If product liability lawsuits are successfully brought against us, we may incur substantial liabilities and may be required to limit commercialization of our products. Our business exposes us to potential product liability risks, which are inherent in the testing, manufacturing, marketing and sale of bio-fuel products. We may not be able to avoid product liability claims. A successful product liability claim brought against us may cause us to incur substantial liabilities and, as a result, our business plan may fail.

          Our securities have no public market.

          Our common stock are “restricted securities” and may not be sold and/or transferred except pursuant to an effective registration statement or an exemption under the 1933 Act and applicable state or “blue sky” laws. There is currently no market for any of our common stock. We are utilizing our “best efforts” to have a broker-dealer file a 15c2-11 application with the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”) for the purpose of listing our common stock on the OTC Electronic Bulletin Board. We can provide no assurances that our common stock will become available for quotation and trading on the OTC Electronic Bulletin Board or that an established pubic market will even develop for our common stock. In the event that no public market develops for our common stock, then investors may have to hold on to their investment in our securities for an indefinite period of time. There are no current or future plans to attempt to establish a public market for the company’s outstanding warrants.

          We have never declared or paid dividends on our capital stock and we do not anticipate paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future.

          We have never declared or paid cash dividends on our capital stock and we do not anticipate paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future. We currently intend to retain future earnings, if any, to fund the development and growth of our business. Any future determination to pay cash dividends will be at the discretion of our board of directors and will be dependent upon the our financial condition, operating results, capital requirements, applicable contractual restrictions and other such factors as our board of directors may deem relevant.

If an established trading market for our common stock does develop, trading prices may be volatile.

          In the event that an established trading market develops in the future, of which there can be no assurances given, the market price of our shares of common stock may be based on factors that may not be indicative of future market performance. Consequently, the market price of our common stock may vary greatly. If a market for

14


our common stock develops, there is a significant risk that our stock price may fluctuate dramatically in the future in response to any of the following factors, some of which are beyond our control:

 

 

 

 

variations in our quarterly operating results;

 

announcements that our revenue or income/loss levels are below analysts’ expectations;

 

general economic slowdowns;

 

changes in market valuations of similar companies;

 

announcements by us or our competitors of significant contracts; and/or

 

strategic partnerships, joint ventures or capital commitments.

          Our common stock may be considered to be a “penny stock” and, as such, the market for our common stock may be further limited by certain Commission rules applicable to penny stocks.

          To the extent the price of our common stock may in the future have a public market price below $5.00 per share or we have a net tangible assets of $5,000,000 or less, our common shares will be subject to certain “penny stock” rules promulgated by the Commission. Those rules impose certain sales practice requirements on brokers who sell penny stock to persons other than established customers and accredited investors (generally institutions with assets in excess of $5,000,000 or individuals with net worth in excess of $1,000,000). For transactions covered by the penny stock rules, the broker must make a special suitability determination for the purchaser and receive the purchaser’s written consent to the transaction prior to the sale. Furthermore, the penny stock rules generally require, among other things, that brokers engaged in secondary trading of penny stocks provide customers with written disclosure documents, monthly statements of the market value of penny stocks, disclosure of the bid and asked prices and disclosure of the compensation to the brokerage firm and disclosure of the sales person working for the brokerage firm. These rules and regulations adversely affect the ability of brokers to sell our common shares in the public market should one develop and they limit the liquidity of our shares of common stock.

          The perception of future sales of registered securities by selling security holders could lead to a decline in the price, if any, of our common stock.

          Future sales of substantial amounts of our currently outstanding common stock in the public market, or the perception that such sales could occur, particularly due to the 3,969,175 shares requested for resale by selling security holders, could adversely affect prevailing trading prices of our common stock and could impair our ability to raise capital through future offerings of equity or equity-related securities. We cannot predict what effect, if any, future sales of our common stock, or the availability of shares for future sales, will have on the market price of our stock.

          The price of common stock may fluctuate significantly, which could result in substantial losses for our stockholders and subject us to litigation.

          The market price, if any, of our common stock also may be adversely impacted by broad market and industry fluctuations regardless of our operating performance, including general economic and technology trends. The various stock markets in general have, from time to time, experienced extreme price and trading volume fluctuations, and the market prices of technology companies such as ours have been extremely volatile. In addition, some companies that have experienced volatility in the market price of their stock have been the subject of securities class action litigation. We may be involved in securities class action litigation in the future. This litigation often results in substantial costs and a diversion of management’s attention and resources.

15


          The requirements of being a public company may strain our resources and distract our management.

          As a public company, we will be subject to the reporting requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act, and the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, or the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. These requirements may place a strain on our systems and resources. The Exchange Act requires that we file annual, quarterly and current reports with respect to our business and financial condition. The Sarbanes-Oxley Act requires that we maintain effective disclosure controls and procedures and internal controls for financial reporting. We will be required to document and test our internal control procedures in order to satisfy the requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, which requires regular management assessments of the effectiveness of our internal controls over financial reporting and eventually, a report by our independent registered public accountants addressing these assessments. During the course of our testing, we may identify deficiencies which we may not be able to remediate in time to meet the deadline imposed by the Sarbanes-Oxley Act for compliance with the requirements of Section 404. In addition, if we fail to achieve and maintain the adequacy of our internal controls, as such standards are modified, supplemented or amended from time to time, we may not be able to ensure that we can conclude on an ongoing basis that we have effective internal controls over financial reporting in accordance with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act.

In order to maintain and improve the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting, significant resources and management oversight will be required. This may divert management’s attention from other business concerns, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. In addition, we may need to hire additional accounting and financial staff with appropriate public company experience and technical accounting knowledge, and we cannot assure you that we will be able to do so in a timely fashion. Our estimated costs associated with going public could exceed $200,000 per year.

16


USE OF PROCEEDS

          We will not receive any proceeds from the sale of the shares of common stock by the selling stockholder, except for funds received from the exercise of warrants held by certain of the selling stockholder, if and when exercised. We plan to use the net proceeds received from the exercise of any warrants, if any, for working capital and general corporate purposes. The actual allocation of proceeds realized from the exercise of these securities will depend upon the amount and timing of such exercises, our operating revenues and cash position at such time and our working capital requirements. There can be no assurances that any of the outstanding warrants will be exercised.

MARKETING INFORMATION

Holders

          As of April 16, 2010, there were approximately 327 holders of our common stock.

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

          The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and the notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this Prospectus. All statements contained herein that are not historical facts, including, but not limited to, statements regarding anticipated future capital requirements, our future plan of operations, our ability to obtain debt, equity or other financing, and our ability to generate cash from operations, are based on current expectations. These statements are forward-looking in nature and involve a number of risks and uncertainties that may cause our actual results in future periods to differ materially from forecasted results.

Overview

          11 Good Energy, Inc. is a Delaware corporation formed on May 23, 2007 for the purposes of developing, testing, manufacturing and distributing bio-fuel with energy related plans and pursuits relying on the commercialization of our proprietary fuel product, G2 Diesel, as discussed below.

          We have developed many contacts and contracts in our business, created an experienced Management team, and have cash and cash equivalents of $4.9 million. As of December 31, 2009, we have finalized the principal development of our proprietary process, and have designed, built and currently operate a fuel facility.

          On October 23, 2007, we completed the purchase of an existing biodiesel manufacturer, 11 Good’s Energy, LTD, a limited liability company (becoming our subsidiary), formed in the State of Ohio in February 2006. Historically, our subsidiary has been a development stage company, which has primarily engaged in research activities to develop a proprietary manufacturing process to produce bio-fuel for diesel applications.

          In early 2008, we began construction on a new manufacturing facility at the location of our operating subsidiary in Magnolia Ohio (Magnolia Plant). In June 2008, we began placing tanks and constructing the infrastructure of the Magnolia Plant. Unfortunately, the industry experienced changes in fire suppression regulations due to an explosion at a competitor’s Bio-diesel manufacturing facility in Ohio. The new regulations required us to invest over $1,500,000 in additional infrastructure not anticipated in the original capital expenditure budget. We had to cease operations from November 2008 to October 2009 in order to secure the financing and make the necessary changes to the fire suppression system and design of the Plant.

Acquisition of 11 Good’s Energy, LTD

          On October 23, 2007, we completed the purchase of 11 Good’s Energy, LTD. As a result of this transaction, all of the assets, liabilities and proprietary technology of 11 Good’s were transferred to us by the former partners of 11 Good’s in exchange for $500,000 in cash, $223,390 in assumed liabilities and 4,285,714 shares of common stock of the company. The assets and liabilities of 11 Good’s were recorded at fair market value at the time of acquisition. 11 Good’s is our sole subsidiary and operations and the management of 11 Good’s and us are the same. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of us and our wholly-owned subsidiary and all intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.

          We performed a valuation analysis of the technology and the consideration given for the acquired proprietary technology as of the purchase date and recorded $2,942,555 in the form of non-compete agreements, core developed technology and in-process research and development.

Critical Accounting Policies

          Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of financial statements requires management to make estimates and disclosures on the date of the financial statements. On an on-going basis, we evaluate our estimates including, but not limited to, those related to revenue recognition. We use authoritative pronouncements, historical experience and other assumptions as the basis for making judgments. Actual results could differ from those estimates. We believe that the following critical accounting policies affect our more significant judgments and estimates in the preparation of our financial statements.

          Revenue Recognition. We are required to make judgments based on historical experience and future expectations, as to the expectations of goods billed to our customers. These judgments are required to assess the propriety of the recognition of revenue based on Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 605-10, “Revenue Recognition,” and related guidance. We make such assessments based on the following factors: (a) customer-specific information, and (b) historical experience for issues not yet identified.

          Inventory Valuation. We are required to make judgments based on historical experience and future expectations, as to the realizability of our inventory. We make these assessments based on the following factors: (a) existing orders and usage, (b) age of the inventory, and (c) historical experience.

          Property and Equipment. We are required to make judgments based on historical experience and future expectations, as to the realizability of our property and equipment. We made these assessments based on the following factors: (a) the estimated useful lives of such assets, (b) technological changes in our industry, and (c) the changing needs of our customers.

          Fair Value of Intangible Assets. We have adopted Statement of Accounting Standards Codification subtopic 805-10 (“ASC 805-10”). ASC 805-10 requires that long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangibles held and used by the Company be reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Events relating to recoverability may include significant unfavorable changes in business conditions, recurring losses, or a forecasted inability to achieve break-even operating results over an extended period.

          We evaluate the recoverability of long-lived assets based upon forecasted undiscounted cash flows. Should impairment in value be indicated, the carrying value of intangible assets will be adjusted, based on estimates of future discounted cash flows resulting from the use and ultimate disposition of the asset. ASC 805-10 also requires assets to be disposed of be reported at the lower of the carrying amount or the fair value less costs to sell.

          Stock-Based Compensation

          We account for its stock based compensation under ASC 718 “Compensation – Stock Compensation” using the fair value based method. Under this method, compensation cost is measured at the grant date based on the value of the award and is recognized over the service period, which is usually the vesting period. This guidance establishes standards for the accounting for transactions in which an entity exchanges it equity instruments for goods or services. It also addresses transactions in which an entity incurs liabilities in exchange for goods or services that are based on the fair value of the entity’s equity instruments or that may be settled by the issuance of those equity instruments.

          There were no employee stock options and employee stock purchases granted to employees and directors during the period from May 23, 2007 (date of inception) through December 31, 2008. On July 22, 2009, the company granted 500,000 stock options to outside directors at an exercise price of $3.00 per share. We recorded the fair value of $200,205 as current period compensation expense as a result of this transaction. These options

20


are for a period of three years and are fully vested. There were no unvested options outstanding as of the date of adoption of FASB ASC Topic 718.

          We use the fair value method for equity instruments granted to non-employees (if any) and will use the Black-Scholes model for measuring the fair value of options, if issued. The stock based fair value compensation is determined as of the date of the grant or the date at which the performance of the services is completed (measurement date) and is recognized over the vesting periods.

Results of Operations

          By virtue of the our purchase of 11 Good’s, which became its sole operations, the company is considered to be in the development stage in accordance with the FASB ASC Topic 915 – Development Stage Enterprises. Since its inception, the company has devoted substantially all of its time to raising capital, obtaining financing, and research and development activities. Furthermore, the company has had a total of $177,934 of revenues and has had recurring losses since its inception.

Year Ended December 31, 2009 Compared to the Year Ended December 31, 2008

          The company generated revenues of $84,218 in 2009 compared to $76,730 in 2008. The increase in revenues in 2009 of $7,488, or 9.8% is consistent with the testing platform continued by the company in 2009.

          Cost of goods sold was $75,252 and $73,904 for 2009 and 2008, respectively, or 89% of revenues for the year ended 2009 and 96% of revenues for the year ended 2008. Costs of goods sold primarily consist of the procurement and transportation of soybean oil, ethanol and other raw materials used in the manufacture of G2 Diesel; including payroll costs associated with labor, depreciation of manufacturing equipment, manufacturing facilities expense, insurance costs and other operating costs directly related to production. The overall increase in cost of goods sold of $1,348 or 1.8% for 2009 is due to the company’s increase in sales volume. We expect margins to improve once we have sales contracts in place after the testing programs are complete.

          Gross profit was $8,966 in 2009 as compared to $2,826 in 2008. Gross profit as a percentage of revenues was 10.7% and 3.7% for the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively. Over the past two years and throughout the company’s testing phase with potential customers, gross margins have continued to be a small percentage of total revenues. In addition; gross margin percentages will vary from period to period depending upon the extent of fuel testing with potential customers and the pricing offered by the company. The gross margin for 2009 and 2008 is not necessarily indicative of the margins that may be realized in future periods.

          Research and development costs increased $238,208 in 2009 as a result of the testing and product development programs initiated in 2009 compared to $30,373 in 2008. We have increased efforts to develop new feedstock alternatives and improve fuel manufacturing techniques. Depreciation and amortization increased by $22,143 or 6.1%. The increase is primarily due to the capitalization of $2.5 million to Leasehold Improvements and Manufacturing Equipment, which began depreciating in November 2009.

22


          Selling, general, and administrative expenses of $3,580,934, exceeded revenues by $3,496,716. Such costs include, among others, payroll and related expenses, insurance costs and occupancy costs. The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses of $2,449,801 in 2009 is primarily related to an increase in the number of employees in the administrative offices, increases in sales management and other payroll related expenses and an increase in the number of consultants and advisors

 

 

More specifically, our payroll and related costs increased by $771,149 due to hiring a new Chief Operating Officer, Plant manager, Accounting Controller, and administrative staff.

Payments to consultants and Board of Directors common stock from the Company’s CEO treated for accounting purposes as donated capital of $531,000

Additional consulting and service provider fees such as advisory, legal and accounting of $846,339

          Research and development expenses of $238,208 included pilot processes and costs associated with product development in 2009 compared to $30,373 in 2008.

          Depreciation and amortization of $384,402 in 2009 compared to $362,259 in 2008. The increase represents additional property, plant and equipment placed in service in 2009 of approximately 2 million.

          Interest expense, net was $2,789,029 in 2009 as compared to $868,568 in 2008 or a net increase of $1,920,461. The increase is primarily attributable to the increase in the amortized debt discount and interest relating to our convertible notes payable. In 2009, we issued additional convertible notes payable in the amount of $4,830,000, for a total for the convertible notes to $7,930,000.

          Net loss was $(6,874,558) in 2009 compared to $(2,389,507) in 2008. Basic and fully diluted net loss per share for 2009 and 2008 was $(.48) and $(.17), respectively. Basic and fully diluted weighted average shares outstanding for 2009 and 2008 were 14,361,659 and 14,285,714, respectively.

          As of December 31, 2009, we have contracts with vendors, advisors and professionals nationally assisting us in our business, but have no firm contracts or backlog of orders from customers to purchase our G2 Diesel fuel or our crude glycerin by-product described herein. Through our past and current testing programs, we are building relationships with trucking fleets, marine diesel and rail companies requiring locomotive diesel fuel. The company’s sales and marketing focus consists of building lasting relationships with major transportation companies to provide large quantities of G2 Diesel. We expect order flow to occur once these companies complete their testing programs, which has proven to be part of the process to reach a contract. We can provide no assurances that Management’s plans will be realized, that there will be sufficient order flow of G2 Diesel fuel to support our intended operations or that we will be able to operate profitably and/or on a positive cash flow basis in the future.

          We will attempt to sell our crude glycerin by-products to manufacturers of cosmetics, toiletries, pharmaceuticals and food products, since we do not have the capability of refining the glycerin. Our ability to sell this by-product will be limited to those manufacturers who require crude glycerin and have the capability to refine it. We can provide no assurances that we will be successful in selling our crude glycerin by-product; among other reasons, our major focus will be the sale of our G2 Diesel. See Risk Factors.”

Liquidity and Capital Resources

          Since May 23, 2007 (date of inception) through December 31, 2009, the company has raised $7,930,000 by issuing notes payable convertible into Common Stock, bearing 8% interest per annum. These Notes (including principal and accrued interest thereon) became convertible at a price of $2.55 per share (the “Conversion Price”) based upon a 15% discount to the company’s equity raise which was completed at an offering price of $3.00 per share between August 2009 and March 2010. In addition to the number of conversion shares to be delivered to

23


each Holder of this Note, upon conversion of the Principal Amount and accrued interest thereon, the company also delivered Unclassified Warrants expiring June 30, 2012 to purchase a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the number of Conversion Shares. As of December 31, 2009 and 2008, the company had outstanding $35,000 and $2,667,721 respectively, of these convertible notes.

          The company had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $4.9 million at December 31, 2009. Cash used in operations for the year ended December 31, 2009 was $4,242,950; this would primarly used to fund the aforementioned losses of the company of $6,874,558 as compared to a loss of $2,389,507 in 2008. Cash used in investing activities was $3,241,868, which included the purchase of property and equipment for 1,971,697, the purchase of treasury stock for $450,000, the purchase of securities held for sale for $1,028,123, also included are proceeds from the sale of securities available for sale of $204,752. Cash provided by financing activities was $12,354,567 and consisted of proceeds of $4,855,000 from the private placement of Convertible Debentures and $9,473,023 in proceeds from common stock subscription, net of repayments of convertible notes of $1,695,000 and loans to related party of $278,456.

          The company had cash and cash equivalents of $0 at December 31, 2008. Cash used in operations for the year ended December 31, 2008 was $486,382. Cash used in investing activities was $781,848, which consisted entirely of the purchase of property and equipment. Cash provided by financing activities was $1,158,703 and consisted of net proceeds of $1,540,678 from the private placement of Convertible Debentures, loans to related party of $297,654 and $25,000 of a commercial note payable. In addition, the company made a payment of $84,321 to retire the commercial note payables assumed as a result of the company’s acquisition of 11 Good’s Energy, LTD.

          As of March 15, 2010, the company converted $6,498,708 of Convertible notes payable to Common Stock at a price of $2.55 per share, or 2,548,513 shares and warrants to purchase 3,228,523 shares of Common Stock and the entire remaining balance of convertible notes was redeemed, with principal and accrued interest paid to each redeeming note holder.

          As of March 15, 2010, the company had raised $12,052,000 through the sale of its Common Stock at a price of $3.00 per share, for a total of 4,017,333 shares, resulting in net proceeds to us of $10,847,000.

          We anticipate that our future liquidity requirements will arise from the need to finance our accounts receivable and inventories, and from the need to fund our current obligations and capital expenditures. The primary sources of funding for such requirements will be current cash, cash generated from operations, and raising additional capital either from the sale of equity, other securities or debt. In 2010, the company plans to locate a site to purchase or lease land to build a second production facility. We estimate this facility to cost approximately $6,000,000. While we have cash and cash equivalents of approximately $4,900,000 at December 31, 2009, the costs of a new production facility exceeds this amount, with the actual cost of this new facility depending upon many factors, including, without limitation, the location and cost of the land, demolition costs of existing facilities (if any) on the site, environmental concerns (if any) and the size of the new plant. Further, as a development stage corporation with limited sales to date, the company will need its existing cash resources to support our intended sales efforts from our existing plant in Magnolia, Ohio. Accordingly, we will likely require additional financing to support the purchase and construction of a second facility and to supplement our operations. We can provide no assurances that the company will be able to obtain adequate financing on terms satisfactory to us, if at all.

Recent Accounting Developments

          In June 2009, The Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued guidance now codified under Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 105-10, which establishes the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (the “Codification”) as the source of authoritative accounting principles recognized by the FASB to be applied in the preparation of financial statements in conformity of GAAP. ASC Topic 105-10 explicitly recognizes rules and interpretive releases of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) under federal securities law and authoritative GAAP for SEC registrants. Upon adoption of this guidance under ASC Topic 105-10 supersedes all then existing non-SEC accounting and reporting standards. All other non-grandfathered non

24


SEC accounting literature not included in the Codification became non-authoritative. The guidance under ASC Topic 105-10 became effective for the company as of July 1, 2009. References made to authoritative FASB guidance throughout this document have been updated to the applicable codification section.

In accordance with Release No. 8760 of the Securities Act of 1933, commencing with the company’s fiscal year ending December 31, 2008, the company will become subject to the requirement to include in its annual report management’s assessment of internal controls over financial reporting. This assessment will require the company to document and test its internal control procedures in accordance with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. The company’s independent registered public accountants will be required to attest to the company’s assessment of internal controls for its fiscal year ending December 31, 2008.

Effective November 1, 2007, the company adopted the provisions of FASB ASC 740-10-25, as required. As of a result of implementing ASC 740-10-25, there has been no adjustment made to the company’s consolidated financial statements and the adoption of ASC 740-10-25 did not have a material impact on the company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In September 2006, the FASB issued FASB ASC Topic 820 – Fair Value Measurements and Disclosure. The objective of ASC 820 is to increase consistency and comparability in fair value measurements and to expand disclosures about fair value measurements. ASC 820 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. ASC 820 applies under other accounting pronouncements that require or permit fair value measurements and does not require any new fair value measurements. The provisions of ASC 820 are effective for fair value measurements made in fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. The adoption of ASC 820-10-55 did not have a material impact on the company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In February 2008, the FASB issued FASB ASC Topic 820-10-55, which delayed the effective date of ASC 820 for all non-financial assets and liabilities, except those that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a recurring basis, until the fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008. The adoption of ASC 820-10-55 did not have a material impact on the company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In December 2006, the FASB issued FASB ASC Topic 825-10-15 which addresses accounting for registration payment arrangements. ASC 825-20-15 specifies that the contingent obligation to make future payments or otherwise transfer consideration under a registration payment arrangement, whether issued as a separate agreement or included as a provision of a financial instrument or other agreement, should be separately recognized and measured in accordance with ASC 450-10, Contingencies. ASC 825-20-15 further clarifies that a financial instrument subject to a registration payment arrangement should be accounted for in accordance with other applicable generally accepted accounting principles without regard to the contingent obligation to transfer consideration pursuant to the registration payment arrangement. For registration payment arrangements and financial instruments subject to those arrangements that were entered into prior to the issuance of ASC 825-20-15, this guidance shall be effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006 and interim periods within those fiscal years. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In February 2007, the FASB issued FASB ASC Topic 825-10 which permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value. The objective is to improve financial reporting by providing entities with the opportunity to mitigate volatility in reported earnings caused by measuring related assets and liabilities differently without having to apply complex hedge accounting provisions. ASC 825-10 is expected to expand the use of fair value measurement, which is consistent with the Board’s long-term measurement objectives for accounting for financial instruments. ASC 825-10 is effective as of the beginning of an entity’s first fiscal year that begins after November 15, 2007, although earlier adoption is permitted. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

25


In December 2007, the FASB issued FASB ASC Topic 805 – Business Combinations which establishes principles and requirements for how an acquirer recognizes and measures in its financial statements the identifiable assets acquired, the liabilities assumed, and any non-controlling interest in an acquiree, including the recognition and measurement of goodwill acquired in a business combination. ASC 805 is effective as of the beginning of the first fiscal year beginning on or after December 15, 2008. Earlier adoption is prohibited. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In June 2007, the FASB issued FASB ASC Topic 730 – Research and Development which requires that nonrefundable advance payments for goods or services that will be used or rendered for future research and development (R&D) activities be deferred and amortized over the period that the goods are delivered or the related services are performed, subject to an assessment of recoverability. ASC 730 will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2007. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In December 2007, the FASB issued FASB ASC Topic 810 – Consolidations which will change the accounting and reporting for minority interests, which will be re-characterized as noncontrolling interests and classified as a component of equity within the consolidated balance sheet. ASC 810 is effective as of the beginning of the first fiscal year beginning on or after December 15, 2008. Earlier adoption is prohibited. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In December 2007, the FASB issued FASB ASC Topic 808 – Collaborative Arrangements which defines collaborative arrangements and requires collaborators to present the result of activities for which they act as the principal on a gross basis and report any payments received from (made to) the other collaborators based on other applicable authoritative accounting literature, and in the absence of other applicable authoritative literature, on a reasonable, rational and consistent accounting policy is to be elected. ASC 808 also provides for disclosures regarding the nature and purpose of the arrangement, the entity’s rights and obligations, the accounting policy for the arrangement and the income statement classification and amounts arising from the agreement. ASC 808 will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008, and will be applied as a change in accounting principle retrospectively for all collaborative arrangements existing as of the effective date. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In March 2008, the FASB issued FASB ASC Topic 815 - Derivatives and Hedging. ASC 815 is intended to improve financial standards for derivative instruments and hedging activities by requiring enhanced disclosures to enable investors to better understand their effects on an entity’s financial position, financial performance, and cash flows. Entities are required to provide enhanced disclosures about: (a) how and why an entity uses derivative instruments; (b) how derivative instruments and related hedged items are accounted for under ASC 815 and its related interpretations; and (c) how derivative instruments and related hedged items affect an entity’s financial position, financial performance, and cash flows. It is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008, with early adoption encouraged. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In April 2008, the FASB issued FASB ASC Topic 350 which amends the factors that should be considered in developing renewal or extension assumptions used to determine the useful life of a recognized intangible asset. We are required to adopt ASC 350 on November 1, 2009 and early adoption is prohibited. The guidance in ASC 350 for determining the useful life of a recognized intangible asset shall be applied prospectively to intangible assets acquired after adoption, and the disclosure requirements shall be applied prospectively to all intangible assets recognized as of, and subsequent to, adoption. We are currently evaluating the impact of ASC 350 on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In May 2008, the FASB issued FASB ASC Topic 470-20-15 which requires the issuer of certain convertible debt instruments that may be settled in cash (or other assets) on conversion to separately account for the liability (debt)

26


and equity (conversion option) components of the instrument in a manner that reflects the issuer’s non-convertible debt borrowing rate. ASC 470 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008 on a retroactive basis. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In 2008, the FASB issued FASB ASC 815-40 which provides guidance on determining what types of instruments or embedded features in an instrument held by a reporting entity can be considered indexed to its own stock for the purpose of evaluating the first criteria of the scope exception in FASB ASC 810-10-15 (Prior authoritative literature: paragraph 11(a) of SFAS 133). The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In May 2009, the FASB issued FASB ASC 855-10 which establishes general standards for accounting and disclosure of events that occur after the balance sheet date but before the financial statements are available to be issued (“subsequent events”). More specifically, FASB ASC 855-10 sets forth the period after the balance sheet date during which management of a reporting entity should evaluate events or transactions that may occur for potential recognition in the financial statements, identifies the circumstances under which an entity should recognize events or transactions occurring after the balance sheet date in its financial statements and the disclosures that should be made about events or transactions that occur after the balance sheet date. FASB ASC 855-10 provides largely the same guidance on subsequent events which previously existed only in auditing literature. The guidance under ASC Topic 855-10 became effective for the company as of June 30, 2009.

Forward-Looking Statements

          The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 (the Act) provides a safe harbor for forward-looking statements made by or on behalf of our company. Our company and its representatives may from time to time make written or verbal forward-looking statements, including statements contained in this report and other company filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission and in our reports to stockholders. Statements that relate to other than strictly historical facts, such as statements about the company’s plans and strategies and expectations for future financial performance are forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Act. Generally, the words “believe,” “expect,” “intend,” “estimate,” “anticipate,” “will” and other similar expressions identify forward-looking statements. The forward-looking statements are and will be based on management’s then current views and assumptions regarding future events and operating performance, and speak only as of their dates. The company undertakes no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. See “Risk Factors” for a discussion of events and circumstances that could affect our financial performance or cause actual results to differ materially from estimates contained in or underlying our forward-looking statements.

DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

Business Development

11 Good Energy, Inc. is a Delaware corporation formed on May 23, 2007 for the purposes of manufacturing and distributing bio-fuel. In October of 2007, we completed the purchase of an existing bio-fuel, 11 Good’s Energy, LTD, a Limited Liability company, formed in the state of Ohio in February 2006. Historically, our subsidiary has been a development stage company, which has primarily engaged in research activities to develop a proprietary manufacturing process to produce bio-fuel for diesel applications. We have developed many contacts in our business but have achieved limited sales to date.

Description of the Traditional Biodiesel Industry and Markets

The biodiesel industry is relatively new and unknown. In 2009, the biodiesel industry reported that it produced an estimated 500 million gallons of biodiesel, constituting only a fraction of the 60 billion gallon per year U.S. diesel fuel market. Due to the recent economic downturn and other factors, some plants are currently closed and many do not currently operate at full capacity.

Biodiesel, in general, is a high-lubricity, clean-burning alternative fuel produced from domestic, renewable resources and is primarily used in compression ignition (diesel) engines. Biodiesel is comprised of mono-alkyl esters of long chain fatty acids derived from vegetable oils or animal fats. A chemical process called transesterification removes the free fatty acids from the base oil and creates the desired esters. Transesterification is the reaction of vegetable oil or animal fat with an alcohol, such as methanol or ethanol, in the presence of a catalyst. Biodiesel can be used in neat (pure) form or blended with petroleum-based diesel. Biodiesel that is in neat form is typically designated in the marketplace as B100. The “100” indicates that the fuel is 100% biodiesel. Biodiesel is frequently blended with petroleum-based diesel. When biodiesel is blended, it is typically identified in the marketplace according to the percentage of biodiesel in the blend. For example, “B20” indicates that 20% of the fuel is biodiesel and 80% is petroleum-based diesel. These characteristics are true for the company’s G2 Diesel as well.

Principal Products and Facilities

The principal products we produce at our plant located in Magnolia, Ohio are bio-fuel (G2 Diesel) and crude glycerin. In 2010, we plan to locate a site to purchase or lease land to build a second production facility. The costs of a second production facility could be in excess of our cash reserves, with the actual cost of this new facility depending upon many factors, including, without limitation, the location and cost of the land, demolition costs of existing facilities (if any) on the site, environmental concerns (if any) and the size of the new plant. Further, as a development stage corporation with limited sales to date, we will likely need our existing cash resources to support our intended sales efforts from our existing plant in Magnolia, Ohio. Accordingly, we will likely require financing to support the purchase and construction of a second facility and to supplement our operations. See “Risk Factors.”

Our Magnolia plant primarily requires propane and electricity to operate. We expect that electricity and propane will be our prime energy cost. In our opinion, our plant configuration and processes have a minimal environmental impact on the surrounding region.

G2 Diesel compared to Traditional Biodiesel

Proprietary Manufacturing Process

Our proprietary manufacturing process uses soybean oil, ethanol alcohol and a catalyst. Our processing method differs from the traditional forms of producing biodiesel. Other producers also use a form of animal or vegetable based oil; however, they also use the toxic petroleum derived methanol during processing, which is used in the traditional method of producing biodiesel. Our proprietary process is new to the biodiesel industry. Our manufacturing process reduces toxic emissions and eliminates wastewater production associated with conventional or traditional biodiesel production. We use no water to wash the fuel in their manufacturing process.

Pricing of G2 Diesel

Management believes that our G2 Diesel commands a pricing premium when compared to other biodiesel products. The selling price per gallon is determined by the cost of soybean oil, ethanol and catalyst. We build our pricing model based primarily on these raw material commodity prices. We have developed our pricing model to trend with the feedstock prices. When our feedstock prices rise or fall, the pricing model adjusts to preserve the desired margins. Soybean Oil has historically trended with petroleum oil. So our selling price would increase or decrease in the same manner as #2 diesel fuel. We can provide no assurances that we will be able to maintain our profit margins and increase the sales price of our G2 Diesel at times of rising feedstock costs. See “Risk Factors.”

Blending of G2 Diesel with traditional 2 diesel fuel

G2 Diesel blends especially well with traditional #2 diesel fuel. The viscosity of the two fuels are very similar and allow the two fuels to splash blend, which means the fuel blends with no induced agitation. This is an important attribute of our fuel that differentiates the G2 Diesel product from the rest of the Biodiesel industry. Many of our competitor’s products do not have a viscosity similar to diesel and therefore does not blend well with diesel.

We intend to sell our product as a 99 – 100% bio-fuel and do not plan to blend our product with any traditional #2 diesel fuel at the company’s facilities. We are prohibited by court order from selling our G2 Diesel as an additive. See “Risk Factors.” We expect that customers may on their own accord choose between a 2% – 20% blend with traditional #2 diesel fuel, with a limit of 5% G2 Diesel blend for on road use. The customer will be responsible for blending their traditional #2 diesel fuel with the G2 Diesel purchased from us and pumping the blended fuel to their vehicle or vessel. This can be done by the end user and/or their current fuel distributor. Our G2 Diesel fuel will be sold as fuel in this regard and will be subject to applicable fuel taxes.

Consistency of feedstock

We currently use soybean oil as our feedstock. We believe that the quality control procedure for our feedstock is essential to the production of a quality fuel. Other producers in the industry will use multiple feedstock of differing quality, mainly to minimize their material costs. This can lead to an inconsistent finished fuel product which performs differently with each change of materials. The control and consistency of feedstock quality is a key attribute to making a high quality fuel.

The effect of cold flow on biodiesel markets.

Biodiesel produced from traditional means using various feed stocks have different cold flow properties, depending on the type of feedstock used in its manufacture. “Cold flow” refers to a fuel’s ability to flow easily at colder temperatures and is an important consideration in producing and blending biodiesel for use in colder climates. The pour point for a fuel is the temperature at which the flow of the fuel stops. Therefore, a lower pour point temperature means the fuel flows better in colder temperatures. The pour point of 100% traditional soy oil based biodiesel is approximately 27°F to 30°F. Based on recent independent testing conducted by a third party

29


laboratory, the pour point of 100% G2 Diesel is -9F. G2 Diesel’s pour point provides a great advantage in cold climate markets.

Current Production and Markets

In November 2009, we completed construction of our bio-fuel manufacturing facility in Magnolia, Ohio. The facility is currently configured to produce between 4.6 million and 6.4 million gallons of G2 Diesel with an ability to expand capacity as the market grows for the company’s proprietary fuel. From November 1, 2009 to April 1, 2010, we produced an approximate total of 150,000 gallons of G2 Diesel at our plant.

Testing and performance of product

Our G2 Diesel has been tested by the Stark Area Regional Transit Authority (SARTA) in North Eastern (Canton) Ohio. SARTA tested the fuel in their buses and transport vehicles at a 10 to 15% blend of our G2 Diesel with traditional #2 diesel fuel and recorded their results. SARTA’s report shows an increase of 1 to 3 miles per gallon; which depending on the vehicle type translates to a 15 to 25% increase in fuel efficiency. The most significant change that drivers noticed was that a bus equipped with an automatic transmission using a blend of G2 Diesel had more power going up hills and would up-shift while ascending a hill. SARTA’s same buses using regular diesel fuel do not up-shift, in some circumstances there was a difference of two gears, third gear as opposed to first gear, on the same hill. The drivers also experienced less engine noise and a more pleasant smell in the cab of the bus.

Over the past year, we also conducted an independent customer trial with Wheeling Lake Erie Railroad, testing our G2 Diesel in their locomotives. The test uses a 20% blend of G2 Diesel with traditional #2 diesel fuel. The test shows that the locomotives have experienced a reduction in overall fuel consumption. This trial will conclude in the spring of 2010, when Wheeling and Lake Erie railroad will conduct a component tear down and inspection of the diesel engines of the locomotives tested.

The Timken company, a manufacturer of roller bearings and specialty steels, has agreed to trial G2 Diesel starting in mid-March 2010. G2 Diesel will be tested for performance efficiency and wear reduction capabilities.

It is important to note that testing arrangements, discussions and meetings, as noted above, do not represent we have, with such third parties, entered into agreements for the sale of our product and no assurance can be given that such efforts will either bear good testing results nor achieve contracts for sales.

Biodiesel Markets

Bio-fuel is primarily used as fuel for diesel engines. It is produced using renewable resources and provides environmental advantages over petroleum-based diesel fuel. Bio-fuel is frequently used as fuel in transport trucks, ships, trains, in farming activities and in many government vehicles. Government legislation that seeks to encourage the use of renewable fuels could lead to an expansion of the market for bio-fuel in the future. Additional markets may become available as a result of growing environmental concerns by American consumers as well as an increased awareness of energy security and the United States’ ability to supply its own fuel needs.

30


Wholesale Market / Biodiesel Marketers. The wholesale market involves selling biodiesel directly to fuel blenders or through biodiesel marketers. Fuel blenders purchase B100 from biodiesel production plants, mix it with petroleum diesel fuel according to specifications, and deliver a final product to retailers. There are few wholesale biodiesel marketers in the United States.

Retail Market. The retail market consists of biodiesel distribution primarily through fueling stations to transport trucks and “jobbers,” which buy products from manufacturers and sell them to retailers for the purpose of supplying farmers, maritime customers and home heating oil users. Retail level distributors include oil companies, independent station owners, marinas and railroad operators. The biodiesel retail market is still in its very early stages as compared to other types of fuel. The present marketing and transportation network must expand significantly in order for us to effectively market our biodiesel to retail users. Areas requiring expansion include, but are not limited to:

 

 

 

 

additional rail capacity;

 

additional storage facilities for biodiesel;

 

increases in truck fleets capable of transporting biodiesel within localized markets;

 

expansion in refining and blending facilities to handle biodiesel; and

 

growth in service stations equipped to handle biodiesel fuels.

Substantial investments required for these infrastructure changes and expansions may not be made or they may not occur on a timely basis. Any delay or failure in making the changes to or expansion of infrastructure could hurt the demand or prices for biodiesel, impede delivery of biodiesel, impose additional costs on or otherwise negatively affect our proposed results of operations or financial position.

Government/Public Sector. The government has increased its use of biodiesel since the implementation of the Energy Policy Act of 1992, amended in 1998, which authorized federal, state and public agencies to use biodiesel to meet the alternative fuel vehicle requirements of the Energy Policy Act.

We anticipate that the Renewable Fuel Standard may increase demand for biodiesel, as it sets a minimum usage requirement for biodiesel and other types of biomass-based diesel. However, there can be no assurance that the Renewable Fuel Standard will increase demand for biodiesel.

Competitive Advantages & Infrastructure

The energy industries are highly competitive. There are significantly larger companies that have larger market penetration than our own. We believe, however, we have certain advantages that could be considered to contrast us from our competition, though sales do not currently reflect the advantages.

Competition from Other Fuel Sources and Additives

The biodiesel industry is in competition with the traditional # 2 diesel fuel segment of the petroleum industry. The price of diesel reached record high prices in July 2008 of approximately $4.70 per gallon for No. 2 ultra low sulfur diesel, and thereafter declined sharply to approximately $2.04 as of March 23, 2009. In addition, other more cost-efficient domestic alternative fuels may be developed and displace biodiesel as an environmentally-friendly alternative. If a new fuel is developed to compete with biodiesel; it may be difficult to market our biodiesel, which could result in the loss of some or all of our ability to operate profitably.

Renewable diesel is another form of diesel with which we may be required to compete. Renewable diesel has characteristics similar to that of petroleum-based diesel fuel and can be co-processed at traditional petroleum refineries from vegetable oils or animal fats mixed with crude oil through a thermal de-polymerization process. According to a February 2009 report from the DOE’s Alternative Fuels & Advanced Vehicles Data Center, renewable diesel is close to full commercialization as manufacturers continue to modify and expand research and development.

31


We also expect to compete with producers of other diesel additives made from raw materials other than soybean oil having similar lubricity values as biodiesel, such as petroleum-based lubricity additives. Some major oil companies produce these petroleum-based lubricity additives and strongly favor their use because they may be used in lower concentrations than biodiesel. In addition, much of the infrastructure in place is for petroleum-based additives. As a result, petroleum-based additives may be more cost-effective than biodiesel. Therefore, it may be difficult to market our biodiesel as a lubricity additive.

Competition with Other Biodiesel Producers

We face competition for market share, capital, labor, management, feedstock (such as soy oil) and other resources. In 2009, approximately 500 million gallons of biodiesel was reported to be produced in the United States. Biodiesel plants are currently operating throughout the United States. We expect that additional biodiesel producers will enter the market if the demand for biodiesel increases.

We must compete with other biodiesel producers not just in the sale of our bio-fuel, but also in the acquisition of soybean oil and other raw materials. A majority of plants, and many of the largest producers, utilize soybean oil. This may change over time as high soybean oil prices are encouraging biodiesel producers to find ways to utilize alternative and less costly types of feedstock. For example, research within the bio-fuel industry is currently underway to develop technology to produce biodiesel from alternative feedstocks such as algae.

Some of our competitors have soy-crushing facilities and are thus not reliant upon third parties for their feedstock supply. As a result, we face a competitive challenge from biodiesel plants owned and operated by the companies that supply our feedstock. Such vertical integration provides certain competitors with greater control over their feedstock supplies, thereby providing them with a competitive advantage over plants like ours that do not have soy-crushing capabilities, especially as prices and competition for soybean oil and other feedstocks have increased.

Currently, there are other active biodiesel plants in Ohio. Because of recent adverse economic conditions and other factors affecting the biodiesel industry, a few plants in Ohio and many across the country have either curtailed production or stopped production completely. Nevertheless, Management believes that with an increase in the public’s desire to use bio-fuels, the current environment allows a new product like G2 Diesel to obtain a market share in a struggling industry.

Primary Co-product — Glycerin

Glycerin is the primary co-product of the biodiesel production process and equals approximately 10% of the quantity of biodiesel produced. It is highly stable under typical storage conditions, compatible with a wide variety of other chemicals and comparatively non-toxic. Glycerin possesses a unique combination of physical and chemical properties that are used in a large variety of products. It is an ingredient or processing aid in cosmetics, toiletries, personal care products, pharmaceuticals and food products. In addition, new uses for glycerin are frequently being discovered and developed due to its versatility. Many of these uses, however, require refined glycerin. Our plant only produces crude glycerin and does not have the capability to refine glycerin.

Glycerin Demand and Markets

We are not capable of refining the crude glycerin produced at our plant. Prices for refined glycerin are typically higher than prices for crude glycerin. In early February 2009, the Jacobsen Biodiesel Bulletin reported average refined glycerin prices of 27 to 35 cents per pound compared with an average of 4 to 7 cents per pound for crude glycerin. Relatively higher refined glycerin prices have prompted some of our competitors to expand their glycerin refining capacities. These biodiesel producers have a competitive advantage over plants like ours that do not have glycerin refining capabilities.

32


Glycerin Competition

It is estimated that every million gallons of biodiesel produced adds approximately another one hundred thousand gallons of crude glycerin into the market. Over the past few years, as biodiesel production has increased, the glycerin market has become increasingly saturated. Excess glycerin production capacity may limit our ability to market our glycerin co-product, and we may even be forced to pay to dispose of our glycerin if prices. Low glycerin prices may also limit our ability to generate revenues through the sale of our by-product. This may negatively affect the profitability of our business.

Sources and Availability of Raw Materials

Soybean Oil Costs and Supply

The cost of feedstock is the largest single component of the cost of biodiesel production. We expect that soybean oil will continue to be our primary feedstock unless we are able to successfully procure and process alternative feedstock and achieve the desired performance of the fuel. As a result, our pricing per gallon has been, and will likely continue to be, particularly susceptible to changes in the price of soybean oil. The twenty-year average price for soybean oil is approximately $0.23 per pound. However, in June 2008, soybean oil reached a new high of $0.62 per pound. Soybean oil prices have since fallen, but remain volatile. The March 2009 Oil Crops Outlook report prepared by the USDA states that the February 2009 average soybean oil price was $0.29 cents per pound. The charts below show U.S. soybean oil prices over the past ten years and for each month in the 2007-2008 marketing year:

(1) Preliminary Price. Data provided by USDA, Oil Crops Outlook Report, March 12, 2009.

We believe that continued increases in the price of soybean oil will result in us increasing the selling price of G2 Diesel. G2 Diesel pricing has historically trended with petroleum oil pricing. If crude oil should increase by 10%, our pricing model will generate a very similar percentage increase in G2 Diesel price, as the result of a similar percentage increase in soybean oil. Management believes that the incremental cost increase to the customer of a 5% blend of G2 Diesel with traditional #2 diesel fuel does not exceed the benefits in fuel efficiency and maintenance costs. We have explored the possibility of acquiring technology for or otherwise obtaining other feedstocks for our G2 Diesel production process. However, our research thus far has determined that the performance characteristics are best achieved through the use of soybean oil. We expect to purchase our soybean requirements from multiple available sources in the United States.

33


Ethanol and Catalyst Costs and Supply

The production of biodiesel at our plant requires ethanol and a catalyst. We have experienced no difficulties in obtaining adequate supplies of ethanol or our catalysts used to produce finished products. As we have in the past, we expect to purchase our ethanol and a catalyst from multiple qualified sources.

Patents, Trademarks and Licenses

Our proprietary products and processes are protected primarily by a combination of trademark, patent and trade secret rights.

As of the date of this Prospectus, we have pending international (PCT) and Canadian patent applications, and we are considering additional filings in the future including, but not necessarily limited to, national stage entry applications based on the international application. We place considerable importance on obtaining patent and trade secret protection for our technologies, products and/or processes. Our success will depend at least in part on our ability, and the ability of any of our licensors, to obtain and keep property rights in our products and processes, which permit us to exclude others from taking commercial advantage of what we consider to be our inventions, and prevent others from using our trade secrets; if we fail to secure patents and other intellectual property rights that cover our products and technologies, we may be unable to derive as much financial return on commercialization of our products as we would if such rights were obtained. The standards which the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) utilizes in deciding whether to grant patents can change, which may result in us being unable to determine the type and extent of any future patent claims that will be issued to us or to our licensors in the future, if any patent claims are issued at all, and the fees associated with filing and prosecuting patent applications may increase significantly, which might result in us incurring higher expenses and adversely affect our intellectual property strategy.

The commercial success of our products might also be affected by the intellectual property rights of others. We intend to operate in a way that does not result in willful infringement of the patent, trade secret or other intellectual property rights of other parties. Nevertheless, there can be no assurance that a claim of infringement will not be asserted against us or that any such assertion will not result in a judgment or order requiring us to obtain a license in order to make, use, or sell our products. There can be no assurance that third parties will not assert infringement claims against us in the future with respect to any products. Any such claims or litigation, with or without merit, could be costly and a diversion of management’s attention, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results and financial condition. Adverse determinations in such claims or litigation could harm our business, operating results and financial condition.

A third party may claim that we are using inventions in which it has patent rights and may go to court to stop us from engaging in our normal operations and activities, such as research, development and the sale of any future products. Such lawsuits are expensive and would consume time and other resources. There is a risk that the court will decide that we are infringing the third party’s patents and order us to stop the infringing activities. In addition, there is a risk that a court will order us to pay the other party damages for having infringed their patents. Moreover, there is no guarantee that the prevailing patent owner would offer us a license so that we could continue to engage in activities claimed by the patent, or that such a license, if made available to us, could be acquired on commercially acceptable terms. In addition, third parties may, in the future, assert other intellectual property infringement claims against us with respect to our products, technologies or other matters. See “Risk Factors.”

Should third parties file patent applications, or be issued patents, claiming technology also claimed by us in pending applications or in issued patents, we may be required to participate in interference proceedings in the USPTO to determine priority of invention. An adverse outcome in an interference proceeding could require us to cease using the technology, to license rights from prevailing third parties, and/or to lose exclusive rights in our products or processes. There is no guarantee that any prevailing party would offer us a license or that such a license, if made available to us, could be acquired on commercially acceptable terms.

34


We maintain confidentiality agreements with our employees, consultants, affiliates, customers and business partners. Any confidentiality agreements required of our employees and that we enter into with other parties may not provide adequate protection for our future trade secrets, know-how or other confidential information or prevent any unauthorized use or disclosure or the unlawful development by others. If any of our confidential intellectual property is disclosed, our business may suffer. In addition, certain of our present and future scientific and management personnel may have been previously employed by other companies where they conducted research in areas similar to those that we now pursue. As a result, we could be subject to allegations of trade-secret violations and other claims relating to the intellectual property rights of these companies.

Government Regulations

Renewable Fuel Standard

The Energy Policy Act of 2005 created the Renewable Fuel Standard (“RFS”) which required refiners to use 7.5 billion gallons of renewable fuels by 2012. The Energy Independence and Security Act (“EISA”) expanded the existing Renewable Fuel Standard to require the use of 9 billion gallons of renewable fuel in 2008, increasing to 36 billion gallons of renewable fuel by 2022. The EISA requires that 600 million gallons of renewable fuel used in 2009 must come from advanced biofuels other than corn-based ethanol, such as ethanol derived from cellulose, sugar or crop residue and biomass-based diesel (which includes biodiesel and renewable diesel), increasing to 21 billion gallons in 2022. The EISA further includes a requirement that 500 million gallons of biodiesel and biomass-based diesel fuel be blended into the national diesel pool in 2009, gradually increasing to one billion gallons by 2012. However, in November 2008, the Environmental Protection Agency (“EPA”) announced that the RFS program in 2009 will continue to be applicable to producers and importers of gasoline only. This means that the 500 million gallons of biomass-based diesel required by the RFS, as amended by the EISA, does not have to be blended into U.S. fuel supplies in 2009. This is due to the fact that the regulatory structure of the original RFS program does not provide a mechanism for implementing the EISA requirement for the use of 500 million gallons of biomass-based diesel. The EPA intends to propose options and develop mechanisms for implementing the EISA biomass-diesel requirements.

We anticipate that the Renewable Fuel Standard may increase demand for biodiesel in the long-term, as it sets a minimum usage requirement for biodiesel and other types of biomass-based diesel. However, there can be no assurances that demand for biodiesel will be increased by the RFS. Accordingly, there is no assurance that additional production of biodiesel and biomass-based diesel will not continually outstrip any additional demand for biodiesel that might be created by this new law. Furthermore, any additional delays in the EPA’s implementation of the EISA biomass-based diesel requirements could hinder the stimulation of additional biodiesel demand. We also anticipate that the expanded RFS will be primarily satisfied by ethanol, including both corn-based and other types of ethanol. The amount of corn-based ethanol that may be used to satisfy the RFS requirements is capped at 15 million gallons starting in 2015 and, accordingly, other types of ethanol, including cellulose-based ethanol, will likely be used to satisfy any requirements over and above the 15 million gallon corn-based ethanol cap.

The Renewable Fuel Standard system will be enforced through a system of registration, recordkeeping and reporting requirements for obligated parties, renewable producers (RIN generators), as well as any party that procures or trades Renewable Identification Numbers (RINs), either as part of their renewable purchases or separately. Any person who violates any prohibition or requirement of the RFS program may be subject to civil penalties for each day of each violation. For example, under the final rule, a failure to acquire sufficient RINs to meet a party’s renewable fuels obligation would constitute a separate day of violation for each day the violation occurred during the annual averaging period. The enforcement provisions are necessary to ensure the RFS program goals are not compromised by illegal conduct in the creation and transfer of RINs. The Environmental Protection Agency has assigned “equivalence values” to each type of renewable energy fuel in order to determine compliance with the RFS. The equivalence values used ethanol as the base-line measurement (such that one gallon of ethanol is equivalent to one credit towards RFS compliance) and assigned biodiesel an equivalence

35


value of 1.5 (so that for each gallon of biodiesel used, the obligated party will receive one and one-half gallons credit towards its RFS compliance).

Biodiesel Tax Credits

The Volumetric Ethanol Excise Tax Credit (VEETC) provides a tax credit of $1.00 per gallon for agri-biodiesel, which is biodiesel derived solely from virgin vegetable oils and animal fats that are blended with petroleum biodiesel. This includes esters derived from crude vegetable oils from corn, soybeans, sunflower seeds, cottonseeds, canola, crambo, rapeseeds, safflowers, flaxseeds, rice bran, and mustard seeds. The VEETC also provides a tax credit of $0.50 per gallon for non agri-biodiesel blended with petroleum diesel, which is biodiesel made from non-virgin or recycled vegetable oil and animal fats. The exercise tax credit may be claimed in both taxable and nontaxable markets, including exempt fleet fuel programs and off-road diesel markets. The desired effect of the excise tax credit is to streamline the use of biodiesel and encourage petroleum blenders to blend biodiesel as far upstream as possible, which will allow more biodiesel to be used in the marketplace. The excise tax credit expired on December 31, 2009; we believe there will be new legislation in 2010 to extend the expiration date. There is no assurance that additional legislation further extending the excise tax credit will be adopted. See “Risk Factors.”

State Legislation

Several states are currently researching and considering legislation to increase the amount of biodiesel used and produced in their states. However, Minnesota is the first and only state to mandate biodiesel use. The legislation, which became effective in September 2005, requires that all traditional #2 diesel fuel sold in the state contain a minimum of 2% biodiesel. The G2 Diesel blend has nearly the same cold flow properties as No. 2 petroleum diesel, which allows it to be used in Minnesota’s colder climate much the same as petroleum diesel throughout the year.

Other states have enacted legislation to encourage (but not require) biodiesel production and use. Several states provide tax incentives and grants for biodiesel-related studies and biodiesel production, blending and use. In addition, several governors have issued executive orders directing state agencies to use biodiesel blends to fuel their fleets.

Effect of Government Regulation

Environmental laws aimed at lowering fuel emissions may also promote biodiesel consumption. The Clean Air Act Amendments of 1990 required the EPA to regulate air emissions from a variety of sources. In a 2001 rule, the EPA provided for the decrease of emissions from vehicles using on-road diesel by requiring the reduction in the sulfur content of diesel fuel from 500 parts per million (ppm) to a significantly lower 15 ppm commencing in June 2006, and 10 ppm by 2011. Reducing the sulfur content of petroleum-based diesel leads to a decrease in lubricity of the fuel, which may adversely impact diesel engines. However, biodiesel is able to supply lubricity, which makes biodiesel an attractive blending stock to satisfy the requirements.

Furthermore, environmental regulations that may affect our company change frequently. It is possible that the government could adopt more stringent federal or state environmental rules or regulations which could increase our operating costs and expenses, or might eliminate provisions such as the Clean Air Act Amendments that may promote the use of biodiesel. The government could also adopt federal or state environmental rules or regulations that may have an adverse effect on the use of biodiesel. Furthermore, the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (“OSHA”) governs our plant operations. OSHA regulations may change such that the costs of the operation of the plant may increase. Any of these regulatory factors may result in higher costs or other materially adverse conditions affecting our operations, cash flows and financial performance.

36


Costs and Effects of Compliance with Environmental Laws

The government’s regulation of the environment changes constantly. It is possible that more stringent federal or state environmental rules or regulations could be adopted, which would increase our operating costs and expenses. It also is possible that federal or state environmental rules or regulations could be adopted that could have an adverse effect on the use of biodiesel. There is always a risk that the Environmental Protection Agency may enforce certain rules and regulations differently than Ohio’s environmental administrators. Ohio or EPA rules are subject to change, and any such changes could result in greater regulatory burdens on plant operations. Any of these regulatory factors may result in higher costs or other materially adverse conditions affecting our operations, cash flows and financial performance.

Employees

As of April 14, 2010, we have 12 full-time employees.

Facilities

Our principal executive offices are located at 4450 Belden Village Street, N.W., Suite 800, Canton, Ohio 44718. These facilities are leased for a period of 2 years through September, 1 2011 from a non-affiliated party at annual rate of $54,000 (plus tax and other escalation charges.). Our Magnolia manufacturing plant is located at 3691 Hope Road, N.W., Magnolia, OH.

Since April 1, 2008, we have occupied warehouse space provided by one of our founders. We agreed to pay a total of $1 per month for the space. We record this fee as rent expense when incurred. From April 2008 to November 1, 2009, we constructed a leasehold improvement to the leased warehouse space for the purpose of locating our bio-fuel manufacturing facility.

We intend to file all required reports due under the Exchange Act with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Such reports include annual reports on Form 10-K, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, Form 8-K and other information we are required to file pursuant to securities laws. You may read and copy materials we file with the SEC at the SEC’s Public Reference Room at 100 F Street, N.E., Washington, DC 20549. You may obtain information on the operation of the Public Reference Room by calling the SEC at 1-800-SEC-0330. The SEC maintains an Internet site that contains reports, proxy and information statements, and other information regarding issuers that file electronically with the SEC which is http://www.sec.gov. Our estimated costs associated with going public could exceed $200,000 per year.

No public market for our common stock

          Our shares of common stock are “restricted securities” and may not be sold and/or transferred except pursuant to an effective registration statement or an exemption under the 1933 Act and applicable state or “blue sky” laws. There is currently no market for any of the company’s common stock. The company is utilizing its “best efforts” to have a broker-dealer file a 15c2-11 application with the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”) for the purpose of listing our common stock on the OTC Electronic Bulletin Board. We can provide no assurances that our common stock will become available for quotation and trading on the OTC Electronic Bulletin Board or that an established pubic market will even develop for our common stock.

Mr. Nash has served as a director of the company since July 8, 2009.

Committees

          We do not have a standing audit, nominating, compensation committee, or committees performing similar functions. Our board of directors believes that it is not necessary to have standing audit, nominating or compensation committees at this time because the functions of such committees are adequately performed by our board of directors. The Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, as amended, requires the company to have an audit committee consisting solely of independent directors.

          John D. Lane and Dennis A Nash may be considered “independent directors”, but none of them are “financial experts” as those terms are defined herein. Under the National Association of Securities Dealers Automated Quotations (“NASDAQ”) definition, an independent director means a person other than an officer or employee of the company or its subsidiaries or any other individuals having a relationship that, in the opinion of the company’ board of directors, would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of the director. The board’s discretion in determining director independence is not completely unfettered. Further, under the NASDAQ definition, an independent director is a person who (1) is not currently (or whose immediate family members are not currently), and has not been over the past three years (or whose immediate family members have not been over the past three years), employed by the company; (2) has not (or whose immediate family members have not) been paid more than $60,000 during the current or past three fiscal

41


years; (3) has not (or whose immediately family has not) been a partner in or controlling shareholder or executive officer of an organization which the company made, or from which the company received, payments in excess of the greater of $200,000 or 5% of that organizations consolidated gross revenues, in any of the most recent three fiscal years; (4) has not (or whose immediate family members have not), over the past three years been employed as an executive officer of a company in which an executive officer of our company has served on that company’s compensation committee; or (5) is not currently (or whose immediate family members are not currently), and has not been over the past three years (or whose immediate family members have not been over the past three years) a partner of our company’s outside auditor. The term “Financial Expert” is defined as a person who has the following attributes: an understanding of generally accepted accounting principles and financial statements; has the ability to assess the general application of such principals in connection with the accounting for estimates, accruals and reserves; experience preparing, auditing, analyzing or evaluating financial statements that present a breadth and level of complexity of accounting issues that are generally comparable to the breadth and complexity of issues that can reasonably be expected to be raised by the company’s financial statements, or experience actively supervising one or more persons engaged in such activities; an understanding of internal controls and procedures for financial reporting; and an understanding of audit committee functions.

          In the future, we intend to have an audit committee, compensation committee, management committee, nominating committee and such other committees as determined by the Board of Directors to be in the best interest of the company and to be in compliance with all applicable securities and state laws and listing requirements of any applicable exchanges or NASDAQ that the company’s securities may become listed on in the future, of which we can provide no assurances that this will occur. In the event we form an audit committee, we intend to have a “financial expert” as an independent board member serving on the Audit Committee, although no assurances can be given in this regard.

Corporate Governance

          Our business, property and affairs are managed by, or under the direction of, our Board, in accordance with the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware and our By-Laws. Members of the Board are kept informed of our business through discussions with the Chief Executive Officer and other key members of management, by reviewing materials provided to them by management.

          In the past, there have been no arrangements or understandings pursuant to which a director or executive officer was selected to be a director or executive officer other than employment contracts with each of our executive officers. We have had no nominating committee of the Board. Executive officers serve at the pleasure of the Board, subject to their rights under any employment contracts.

          We continue to review our corporate governance policies and practices by comparing our policies and practices with those suggested by various groups or authorities active in evaluating or setting best practices for corporate governance of public companies. Based on this review, we have adopted, and will continue to adopt, changes that the Board believes are the appropriate corporate governance policies and practices for our Company. We intend to comply with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and subsequent rule changes made by the SEC and any applicable securities exchange.

Director Qualifications and Diversity

The board seeks independent directors who represent a diversity of backgrounds and experiences that will enhance the quality of the board’s deliberations and decisions. Candidates shall have substantial experience with one or more publicly traded companies or shall have achieved a high level of distinction in their chosen fields. The board is particularly interested in maintaining a mix that includes individuals who are active or retired executive officers and senior executives, particularly those with experience in the natural resources, finance and capital market industries.

In evaluating nominations to the Board of Directors, our Board also looks for certain personal attributes, such as integrity, ability and willingness to apply sound and independent business judgment, comprehensive understanding of a director’s role in corporate governance, availability for meetings and consultation on Company matters, and the willingness to assume and carry out fiduciary responsibilities. Qualified candidates for membership on the Board will be considered without regard to race, color, religion, sex, ancestry, national origin or disability.

Risk Oversight

Enterprise risks are identified and prioritized by management and each prioritized risk is assigned to the full board for oversight as follows:

Risks and exposures associated with corporate governance, and management and director succession planning, strategic, financial and execution risks and other current matters that may present material risk to our operations, plans, prospects or reputation.

Risks and exposures associated with financial matters, particularly financial reporting, tax, accounting, disclosure, internal control over financial reporting, financial policies, investment guidelines and credit and liquidity matters.

Risks and exposures associated with leadership assessment, and compensation programs and arrangements, including incentive plans.

Board Leadership Structure

The Chairman of the Board presides at all meetings of the Board. The Chairman is appointed on an annual basis by at least a majority vote of the remaining directors. Currently, the offices of Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer are not separated. The company has no fixed policy with respect to the separation of the offices of the Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer. The Board believes that the separation of the offices of the Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer could become part of the succession planning process and that it is in the best interests of the company to make this determination from time to time.

SECURITIES OWNERSHIP OF PRINCIPAL STOCKHOLDERS AND MANAGEMENT

          The following table sets forth information regarding the beneficial ownership of company common stock prior to and after the Offering:

 

 

 

 

each of our stockholders who is known by us to beneficially own more than 5% of our common stock;

 

each of the company’s executive officers; and

 

each of the company’s directors.

42


          Beneficial ownership is determined based on the rules and regulations of the Commission. A person has beneficial ownership of shares if the individual has the power to vote and/or dispose of shares. This power can be sole or shared, and direct or indirect. In computing the number of shares beneficially owned by a person and the percentage ownership of that person, shares of common stock subject to options or warrants held by that person are counted as outstanding. These shares, however, are not counted as outstanding for the purposes of computing the percentage ownership of any other person. Except as indicated in the footnotes to this table and pursuant to applicable community property laws, each stockholder named in the table has sole voting and dispositive power with respect to the shares set forth opposite that stockholder’s name.

ASC 718 requires the company to determine the overall value of the options as of the date of grant based upon the Black-Scholes method of valuation, and to then expense that value over the service period over which the options become exercisable (vest). As a general rule, for time-in-service-based options, the company will immediately expense any option or portion thereof which is vested upon grant, while expensing the balance on a pro rata basis over the remaining vesting term of the option. For a description ASC 718 and the assumptions used in determining the value of the options under the Black-Scholes model of valuation, see the notes to the financial statements included with this Memorandum.

 

 

(2)

Includes all other compensation not reported in the preceding columns, including (i) perquisites and other personal benefits, or property, unless the aggregate amount of such compensation is less than $10,000; (ii) any “gross-ups” or other amounts reimbursed during the fiscal year for the payment of taxes; (iii) discounts from market price with respect to securities purchased from the company except to the extent available generally to all security holders or to all salaried employees; (iv) any amounts paid or accrued in connection with any termination (including without limitation through retirement, resignation, severance or constructive termination, including change of responsibilities) or change in control; (v) contributions to vested and unvested defined contribution plans; (vi) any insurance premiums paid by, or on behalf of, the company relating to life insurance for the benefit of the named executive officer; and (vii) any dividends or other earnings paid on stock or option awards that are not factored into the grant date fair value required to be reported in a preceding column.

 

 

(3)

Includes compensation for service as a director described under Director Compensation, below.

          For a description of the material terms of each named executive officers’ employment agreement, including the terms of the terms of any common share purchase option grants, see that section of this Prospectus captioned “Employment Agreements.”

          We have reviewed our compensation policies and practices for all employees and concluded that any risks arising from our policies and practices are not reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company.

44


          Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code (Section 162(m)) imposes a $1 million limit on the amount that a public company may deduct for compensation paid to the company’s chief executive officer or any of the company’s four other most highly compensated executive officers who are employed as of the end of the year. This limitation does not apply to compensation that meets the requirements under Section 162(m) for “qualifying performance-based” compensation (i.e., compensation paid only if the individual’s performance meets preestablished objective goals based on performance criteria approved by the stockholders). Prior to this offering, we were not subject to Section 162(m). Going forward, we will seek to maximize the compensation deduction of our executive officers and to structure the performance-based portion of the compensation of our executive officers in a manner that complies with Section 162(m). However, because we will compensate our executive officers in a manner designed to promote our varying corporate objectives, our compensation committee may not adopt a policy requiring all compensation to be deductible. For 2009, cash compensation paid to our executive officers did not exceed the $1 million limit for any covered officer.

          No outstanding common share purchase option or other equity-based award granted to or held by any named executive officer in 2009 were repriced or otherwise materially modified, including extension of exercise periods, the change of vesting or forfeiture conditions, the change or elimination of applicable performance criteria, or the change of the bases upon which returns are determined, nor was there any waiver or modification of any specified performance target, goal or condition to payout.

          For a description of the material terms of any contract, agreement, plan or other arrangement that provides for any payment to a named executive officer in connection with his or her resignation, retirement or other termination, or a change in control of the company see “Employment Agreements”.

Executive Officer Outstanding Equity Awards At Fiscal Year-End

ASC 718 requires the company to determine the overall value of the options as of the date of grant based upon the Black-Scholes method of valuation, and to then expense that value over the service period over which the options become exercisable (vest).

47



 

 

 

 

The table above reflects the full value of the options granted for the year of grant. As a general rule, for time-in-service-based options, the company will immediately expense any option or portion thereof which is vested upon grant, while expensing the balance on a pro rata basis over the remaining vesting term of the option. For a description ASC 718 and the assumptions used in determining the value of the options under the Black-Scholes model of valuation, see the notes to the financial statements included with this Memorandum.

          In October 2007, the company completed its acquisition of 11 Good’s Energy Ltd., its operating subsidiary, and in connection therewith, the company issued an aggregate of 4,285,714 shares to the founders of 11 Good Energy Ltd., including 2,782,000 to Clayton Livengood, 1,218,000 shares to his wife, Susan K.

          In October of 2009, we agreed to purchase 450,000 shares of the company’s outstanding common stock held by Surge Global Energy, Inc, an investor in 11 Good Energy, Inc. The purchase price was $450,000 ($1 per share). The company has recorded the transaction at cost to Treasury Stock.

Note Offering

          Between 2007 and 2009, the company raised approximately $7,930,000 in gross proceeds from the sale of its convertible promissory notes which became due and payable on June 30, 2009. The company paid commissions (finders fees) totaling $643,700 in connection with this offering. The notes provided for each noteholder to have the option to convert their notes into common stock based upon a 15% discount to the company’s first equity raise which later occurred between August and December 2009 at $3.00 per share. Therefore, the conversion price of the notes became $2.55 per share. Upon repayment of each note or the conversion thereof, each noteholder received one warrant for each share of common stock that was issued upon conversion of the notes (including accrued interest thereon) or, in the case the notes were retired through the payment of cash, one warrant for each share of common stock that would have been issued upon the conversion of these notes had the noteholder converted the principal only into common stock. These unclassified warrants, which total 3,228,523, have an expiration date of June 30, 2012. The exercise price of the warrants which is equal to the conversion price of the notes is fixed at $2.55 per share. Upon completion of the equity offering described below, the noteholders had 30 days to elect to convert their notes as described above or to receive its return of their principal and accrued interest thereon. As of December 31, 2009, the company repaid $1,967,916 in principal plus accrued interest thereon to note holders and as of March 1, 2010, converted the remaining $6,498,708 in principal plus accrued interest thereon to 2,548,513 shares of common stock.

Equity Offering

          In August 2009, the company commenced an equity offering which had several closings between August 2009 and March 2010. The company raised gross proceeds of $12,052,000 from the sale of 4,017,333 shares of common stock and Class A warrants to purchase 2,008,667 shares of the company’s common stock at an exercise price of $4.50 per share through the close of business on June 30, 2012. The company paid commissions totaling $1,205,200 in connection with this offering. In March 2010, the company also granted 686,239 warrants to the placement agent in connection with the equity offering.

Transactions with Affiliates

          Since April 1, 2008, the company has occupied warehouse space provided by one of the company’s founders. The company agreed to pay a total of $1 per month for the space. The company records this fee as rent expense when incurred. During this time period, the company constructed a leasehold improvement to the leased warehouse space for the purpose of locating our bio- fuel manufacturing facility.

The company incurred $750,996 and $289,190 in fees to these individuals for the year ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively, in a consulting role.

This Selling Security Holder owns Agency Warrants, with the underlying shares registered for resale.

          We are registering shares for resale by the selling security holders in accordance with the registration rights granted to the selling security holders. We will pay the registration and filing fees, printing expenses, listing fees, blue sky fees, if any, and fees and disbursements of our counsel in connection with this offering, but the selling security holders will pay any underwriting discounts, selling commissions and similar expenses relating to the sale of the shares, as well as the fees and expenses of their counsel. In addition, we have agreed to indemnify the selling security holders and certain affiliated parties, against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act, in connection with the offering. Certain selling security holders have agreed to indemnify us against certain losses. Insofar as indemnification for liabilities under the Securities Act may be permitted to our directors or officers, or persons controlling our company, we have been informed that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is therefore unenforceable.

          We will file a prospectus supplement to name any successors to any named selling security holder who are able to use the prospectus to resell the securities. All of the shares being registered for resale by the selling security holders were acquired from us in a private placement transaction, which is summarized under “Certain Transaction.”

56


PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

          Each Selling Stockholder (the “Selling Stockholders”) of the common stock and any of their pledgees, assignees and successors-in-interest may, from time to time, sell any or all of their shares of common stock on the OTC Bulletin Board or any other stock exchange, market or trading facility on which the shares are traded or in private transactions. These sales may be at fixed or negotiated prices. A Selling Stockholder may use any one or more of the following methods when selling shares:

 

 

 

 

ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker-dealer solicits purchasers;

 

 

 

 

block trades in which the broker-dealer will attempt to sell the shares as agent but may position and resell a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction;

 

 

 

 

purchases by a broker-dealer as principal and resale by the broker-dealer for its account;

 

 

 

 

an exchange distribution in accordance with the rules of the applicable exchange;

 

 

 

 

privately negotiated transactions;

 

 

 

 

settlement of short sales entered into after the effective date of the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part;

 

 

 

 

broker-dealers may agree with the Selling Stockholders to sell a specified number of such shares at a stipulated price per share;

 

 

 

 

through the writing or settlement of options or other hedging transactions, whether through an options exchange or otherwise;

 

 

 

 

a combination of any such methods of sale; or

 

 

 

 

any other method permitted pursuant to applicable law.

          The Selling Stockholders may also sell shares under Rule 144 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, if available, rather than under this prospectus.

          Broker-dealers engaged by the Selling Stockholders may arrange for other brokers-dealers to participate in sales. Broker-dealers may receive commissions or discounts from the Selling Stockholders (or, if any broker-dealer acts as agent for the purchaser of shares, from the purchaser) in amounts to be negotiated, but, except as set forth in a supplement to this Prospectus, in the case of an agency transaction not in excess of a customary brokerage commission in compliance with FINRA Rule 2440; and in the case of a principal transaction a markup or markdown in compliance with FINRA IM-2440.

          In connection with the sale of the common stock or interests therein, the Selling Stockholders may enter into hedging transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions, which may in turn engage in short sales of the common stock in the course of hedging the positions they assume. The Selling Stockholders may also sell shares of the common stock short and deliver these securities to close out their short positions, or loan or pledge the common stock to broker-dealers that in turn may sell these securities. The Selling Stockholders may also enter into option or other transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions or the creation of one or more derivative securities which require the delivery to such broker-dealer or other financial institution of shares offered by this prospectus, which shares such broker-dealer or other financial institution may resell pursuant to this prospectus (as supplemented or amended to reflect such transaction).

          The Selling Stockholders and any broker-dealers or agents that are involved in selling the shares may be deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of the Securities Act in connection with such sales. In such

57


event, any commissions received by such broker-dealers or agents and any profit on the resale of the shares purchased by them may be deemed to be underwriting commissions or discounts under the Securities Act. Each Selling Stockholder has informed the company that it does not have any written or oral agreement or understanding, directly or indirectly, with any person to distribute the Common stock. In no event shall any broker-dealer receive fees, commissions and markups which, in the aggregate, would exceed eight percent (8%).

          The company is required to pay certain fees and expenses incurred by the company incident to the registration of the shares. The company has agreed to indemnify the Selling Stockholders against certain losses, claims, damages and liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act.

          None of the Selling Security Holders is an affiliate of us, and none of them has had a material relationship with us during the past three years, except John D. Lane and Dennis A. Nash are directors of the company and Jesup & Lamont Security Corp. acted as our Placement Agent in connection with an equity offering of $12,052,000, and Susan Bertash, Bill Corbett, Ryan Mitchell, Greg Ricker and John D. Lane are together with Jesup members of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority or persons associated or affiliated with a FINRA member.

          Because Selling Stockholders may be deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of the Securities Act, they will be subject to the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act including Rule 172 thereunder. In addition, any securities covered by this prospectus which qualify for sale pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act may be sold under Rule 144 rather than under this prospectus. There is no underwriter or coordinating broker acting in connection with the proposed sale of the resale shares by the Selling Stockholders.

          We agreed to keep this prospectus effective until the earlier of (i) the date on which the shares may be resold by the Selling Stockholders without registration and without regard to any volume or manner-of-sale limitations by reason of Rule 144, without the requirement for the company to be in compliance with the current public information under Rule 144 under the Securities Act or any other rule of similar effect or (ii) all of the shares have been sold pursuant to this prospectus or Rule 144 under the Securities Act or any other rule of similar effect. The resale shares will be sold only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers if required under applicable state securities laws. In addition, in certain states, the resale shares may not be sold unless they have been registered or qualified for sale in the applicable state or an exemption from the registration or qualification requirement is available and is complied with.

          Under applicable rules and regulations under the Exchange Act, any person engaged in the distribution of the resale shares may not simultaneously engage in market making activities with respect to the common stock for the applicable restricted period, as defined in Regulation M, prior to the commencement of the distribution. In addition, the Selling Stockholders will be subject to applicable provisions of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations thereunder, including Regulation M, which may limit the timing of purchases and sales of shares of the common stock by the Selling Stockholders or any other person. We will make copies of this prospectus available to the Selling Stockholders and have informed them of the need to deliver a copy of this prospectus to each purchaser at or prior to the time of the sale (including by compliance with Rule 172 under the Securities Act).

DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES

company Capital Stock

          At formation of the company in May 2007, the company was authorized to issue:

 

 

 

 

38,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”);

 

 

 

 

11,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Preferred Stock”).

58


          In March 2010, the Board approved and the stockholders ratified an increase in the number of authorized common shares to 65,000,000. To reflect this change, a certificate of amendment to the company’s certificate of incorporation was filed with the Secretary of state of the state of Delaware on March 22, 2010. The company currently has 19,976,560 shares of company Common Stock issued and outstanding. Of the 19,976,560 shares outstanding, 4,475,000 common shares are owned and controlled by Frederick C. Berndt, the company’s Chief Executive Officer. In addition, Mr. Berndt owns and controls Series A Preferred Stock (11,000,000 shares) which have the voting rights of 11,000,000 common shares but no other conversion, dividend, liquidation or other preferential rights over Common Stock. See “Security Ownership of Principal Stockholders and Management”

Class A Warrants

          The company has outstanding Class A Warrants to purchase 2,008,667 shares as of April 1, 2010. Each Class A Warrant is exercisable at a price of $4.50 per share through June 30, 2012. The Class A Warrants have anti-dilution protection against stock splits, combinations, stock dividends, recapitalizations, mergers, consolidations and the like.

Unclassified Warrants

          The company has outstanding unclassified warrants to purchase 3,228,523 shares of Common Stock through June 30, 2012 at an exercise price of $2.55 per share. These Unclassified Warrants also have anti-dilution protection against stock splits, combinations, stock dividends, recapitalizations, mergers, consolidations and the like.

Ageny Warrants

          In March 2010, the company granted to the Placement Agent of its equity offering 5-year Warrants to purchase 686,239 shares of common stock, exercisable at $3.00 per share. These Warrants have anti-dilution protection the same as our other Warrants. The shares of common stock underlying these warrants are registered for resale by certain Selling Security Holders.

INDEMNIFICATION

          Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of our company under Delaware law or otherwise, we have been advised the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission is that such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than payment by us for expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of our company in successful defense of any action, suit, or proceeding) is asserted by a director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, we will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction, the question of whether such indemnification by it is against public policy in the Securities Act of 1933 and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

          As far as exculpation or indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted for directors and officers and controlling persons, we have been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such exculpation or indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of 11 Good Energy, Inc.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of 11 Good Energy, Inc. and Subsidiary (the “Company”), a development stage company as of December 31, 2009 and 2008 and the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in stockholders’ equity and cash flows for each of the two-year period ended December 31, 2009 and for the period from May 23, 2007 (date of inception) to December 31, 2009. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.

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

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to the above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of 11 Good Energy, Inc. and Subsidiary as of December 31, 2009 and 2008, and the consolidated results of operations, stockholders’ equity and cash flows for each of the years in the two–year period ended December 31, 2009 and for the period from May 23, 2007 (date of inception) to December 31, 2009 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 to the accompanying consolidated financial statements, the Company has suffered recurring losses from operations and does not have sufficient cash or working capital to meet anticipated commitments through 2010. This raises 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 1. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

11 GOOD ENERGY, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY
(a development stage company)
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 2009 AND 2008

NOTE 1 – SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

A summary of the significant accounting policies applied in the presentation of the accompanying financial statements follows:

Basis and business presentation

11 Good Energy, Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware on May 23, 2007. The Company is in the development stage, as defined by Accounting Standards Codification subtopic 915-10, Development Stage Entities (“ASC 915-10”) and is developing alternative fuel sources, particularly the manufacture and distribution of Bio-fuel products for diesel engine applications. To date, the Company has generated minimal sales revenues, has incurred expenses and has sustained losses. Consequently, its operations are subject to all the risks inherent in the establishment of a new business enterprise. For the period from inception through December 31, 2009, the Company has accumulated a deficit through its development stage of $10,011,074.

On October 23, 2007, the Company acquired 11 Good’s Energy, LTD, a limited liability corporation organized in February 2006.

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, and its wholly-owned subsidiary 11 Good’s Energy, LTD (“11 Good’s”). All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Acquisition of 11 Good’s Energy, LTD

On October 23, 2007 the Company acquired all outstanding membership interests of 11 Good’s for a purchase price totally $2,953,295. The Company acquired all the assets and assumed all liabilities of 11 Good’s. There were no contingent payments, options or commitments associated with the acquisition. A summary of consideration is as follows:

The Company believes that the estimated tangible assets represent fair value at the date of acquisition. The fair value of an asset is defined as the amount for which an asset or liability could be bought or sold in a current transaction between knowledgeable, unrelated willing parties when neither party is acting under compulsion.

The Company valued the developed core technologies and in process research and development using a form of the income approach known as the multi-period excess earnings method. This method measures the present value of the future earnings to be generated during the remaining lives of the assets. Expected costs, including income taxes, are deducted from revenues attributed to the asset to arrive at after-tax cash flows. From these cash flows, contributory asset charges are deducted. These charges represent costs of the use of contributory assets (which includes: working capital, fixed assets, workforce and other intangible assets) employed to support the technology-based asset and help in the generation of revenue. The remaining cash flows are discounted to present value and then summed. Then, the value of the amortization tax benefit is added to the sum of the present values to arrive at the fair value of the intangible asset. Based on this methodology the Company assigned the value of developed core technologies at $809,015 and in process research and development at $1,589,197. The Company will amortize these amounts over the estimated useful life of twelve years and ten years, respectively.

11 GOOD ENERGY, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY
(a development stage company)
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 2009 AND 2008

NOTE 1 – SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

The Company valued the non-compete agreements using the with and without method of the income approach. This methodology determines the impact on discounted net cash flow should the restricted parties decide to compete directly against the Company. This method requires the use of certain estimates, including projected cash flows, discount rates and probability factors related to the likelihood of future competition. Based on this methodology the Company assigned the value of non-compete agreements at $544,343. The Company will amortize this amount over the estimated useful life of five years.

The estimated fair value of the assets acquired was based upon management’s and independent appraiser’s estimates.

Unaudited proforma information for the acquisition of 11 Good’s has not been presented as the acquisition is not significant to the results of operations for the period from May 23, 2007 (date of inception) through December 30, 2009.

Estimates

The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts and disclosure. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates. Such estimates include management’s assessments of useful lives of assets and related depreciation and amortization methods applied.

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification subtopic 605-10, Revenue Recognition (“ASC 605-10”) which requires that four basic criteria must be met before revenue can be recognized: (1) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; (2) delivery has occurred; (3) the selling price is fixed and determinable; and (4) collectability is reasonably assured. Determination of criteria (3) and (4) are based on management’s judgments regarding the fixed nature of the selling prices of the products delivered and the collectability of those amounts. Provisions for discounts and rebates to customers, estimated returns and allowances, and other adjustments are provided for in the same period the related sales are recorded.

ASC 605-10 incorporates Accounting Standards Codification subtopic 605-25, Multiple-Element Arrangements (“ASC 605-25”). ASC 605-25 addresses accounting for arrangements that may involve the delivery or performance of multiple products, services and/or rights to use assets. The effect of implementing 605-25 on the Company’s financial position and results of operations was not significant.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

For purposes of the Statements of Cash Flows, the Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with a maturity date of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

Fair Values

In the first quarter of fiscal year 2008, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Codification subtopic 820-10, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (“ASC 820-10”). ASC 820-10 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and enhances fair value measurement disclosure. ASC 820-10 delays, until the first quarter of fiscal year 2009, the effective date for ASC 820-10 for all non-financial assets and non-financial liabilities, except those that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a recurring basis (at least annually). The adoption of ASC 820-10 did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial position or operations. Refer to Footnote 13 for further discussion regarding fair valuation.

Accounts Receivable

The Company assesses the realization of its receivables by performing ongoing credit evaluations of its customers’ financial condition. Through these evaluations, the Company may become aware of a situation where a customer may not be able to meet its financial obligations due to deterioration of its financial viability, credit ratings or bankruptcy. The Company’s reserve requirements are based on the best facts available to the Company and are reevaluated and adjusted as additional information is received. The Company’s reserves are also based on amounts determined by using percentages applied to certain aged receivable categories. These percentages are determined by a variety of factors including, but not limited to, current economic trends, historical payment and bad debt write-off experience. Allowance for doubtful accounts for accounts receivable was $-0- as of December 31, 2009.

Available for Sale Securities

Available-for-sale securities are recorded at fair value with the net unrealized gains and losses (that are deemed to be temporary) reported, net of tax, as a component of other comprehensive income. Realized gains and losses and charges for other-than-temporary impairments are included in determining net income, with related purchase costs based on the first-in, first-out method.

Segment information

Accounting Standards Codification subtopic Segment Reporting 280-10 (“ASC 280-10”) which establishes standards for reporting information regarding operating segments in annual financial statements and requires selected information for those segments to be presented in interim financial reports issued to stockholders. ASC 280-10 also establishes standards for related disclosures about products and services and geographic areas. Operating segments are identified as components of an enterprise about which separate discrete financial information is available for evaluation by the chief operating decision maker, or decision-making group, in making decisions how to allocate resources and assess performance. The Company applies the management approach to the identification of our one reportable operating segment as provided in accordance with ASC 280-10. The information disclosed herein materially represents all of the financial information related to the Company’s principal operating segment.

Research and Development

The Company accounts for research and development costs in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification subtopic 730-10, Research and Development (“ASC 730-10”). Under ASC 730-10, all research and development cost must be charged to expense as incurred. Accordingly, internal research and developments cost is expensed as incurred.

The Company incurred expenditures of $238,208, $30,373 and $268,581 on research and product development for the years ended December 31, 2009, 2008 and from May 23, 2007 (date of inception) through December 31, 2009, respectively.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are stated at cost. When retired or otherwise disposed, the related carrying value and accumulated depreciation are removed from the respective accounts and the net difference less any amount realized from disposition, is reflected in earnings. For financial statement purposes, property and equipment are recorded at cost and depreciated using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives of 3 to 10 years.

Long-Lived Assets

The Company has adopted Accounting Standards Codification subtopic 360-10, Property, Plant and Equipment (“ASC 360-10”). ASC 360-10 requires that long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangibles held and used by the Company be reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Events relating to recoverability may include significant unfavorable changes in business conditions, recurring losses, or a forecasted inability to achieve break-even operating results over an extended period. The Company evaluates the recoverability of long-lived assets based upon forecasted undiscounted cash flows. Should impairment in value be indicated, the carrying value of intangible assets will be adjusted, based on estimates of future discounted cash flows resulting from the use and ultimate disposition of the asset. ASC 360-10 also requires assets to be disposed of be reported at the lower of the carrying amount or the fair value less costs to sell.

Income Taxes

The Company has adopted Accounting Standards Codification subtopic 740-10, Income Taxes (“ASC 740-10”) which requires the recognition of deferred tax liabilities and assets for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statement or tax returns. Under this method, deferred tax liabilities and assets are determined based on the difference between financial statements and tax basis of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. Temporary differences between taxable income reported for financial reporting purposes and income tax purposes include, but not limited to, accounting for intangibles, debt discounts associated with convertible debt, equity based compensation and depreciation and amortization. The adoption of ASC 740-10 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated results of operations or financial condition.

Comprehensive Income

The Company adopted Accounting Standards Codification subtopic 220-10, Comprehensive Income (“ASC 220-10”) which establishes standards for the reporting and displaying of comprehensive income and its components. Comprehensive income is defined as the change in equity of a business during a period from transactions and other events and circumstances from non-owners sources. It includes all changes in equity during a period except those resulting from investments by owners and distributions to owners. ASC 220-10 requires other comprehensive income (loss) to include foreign currency translation adjustments and unrealized gains and losses on available for sale securities.

Loss per Share

The Company has adopted Accounting Standards Codification subtopic 260-10, Earnings Per Share (“ASC 260-10”) specifying the computation, presentation and disclosure requirements of earnings (loss) per share information. Basic loss per share has been calculated based upon the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. As of December 31, 2009 and 2008, common equivalent shares are excluded from the computation of the diluted loss per share as their effect would be anti-dilutive.

Intangible Assets

The Company accounts for acquisitions in accordance with the provisions of ASC 805-10. The Company assigns to all identifiable assets acquired (including intangible assets), and to all identifiable liabilities assumed, a portion of the cost of the acquired company equal to the estimated fair value of such assets and liabilities at the date of acquisition. The Company records the excess of the cost of the acquired company over the sum of the amounts assigned to identifiable assets acquired less liabilities assumed, if any, as goodwill.

As a result of the acquisition 11 Good’s on October 23, 2007, the Company acquired intangible assets in the aggregate amount of $2,942,555.

The Company allocated $544,343, $809,015 and $1,589,197 to identifiable intangible assets including non compete agreement, developed core technology and in process research and development, respectively.

 The Company amortized its identifiable intangible assets using the straight-line method over their estimated period of benefit. The estimated useful lives of the non compete agreement is five years, the developed core technology is ten years and in process research and development is twelve years. The Company periodically evaluates the recoverability of intangible assets and takes into account events or circumstances that warrant revised estimates of useful lives or indicate that impairment exists.

Total identifiable intangible assets acquired in the acquisition of 11 Good’s and their carrying values at December 31, 2009 are:

 Concentrations of Credit Risk

Financial instruments and related items, which potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk, consist primarily of cash, cash equivalents and trade receivables. The Company places its cash and temporary cash investments with high credit quality institutions. At times, such investments may be in excess of the FDIC insurance limit.

Dependency on key management

 The future success or failure of the Company is dependent primarily upon the continued services of its key executives and founder, in particular, the services of efforts Frederick C. Berndt, Chief Executive Officer, Gary R. Smith, the company’s Chief Operations Officer, and Daniel T. Lapp, the company’s Chief Financial Officer. The ability of the company to pursue its business strategy effectively will also depend upon, among other factors, the successful recruitment and retention of additional highly skilled and experienced managerial, marketing, engineering and technical personnel. There can be no assurance that the company will be able to retain or recruit such personnel.

Stock based compensation

The Company has adopted Accounting Standards Codification subtopic 718-10, Compensation (“ASC 718-10”) which requires all share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, to be recognized in the income statement based on their fair values. Pro-forma disclosure is no longer an alternative. This statement does not change the accounting guidance for share based payment transactions with parties other than employees provided in ASC 505-50. On July 22, 2009, the Company granted 500,000 fully vested options to directors to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock at $3.00 per share over three years. The fair value of $200,205 was charged to current period operations.

 Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In February 2010 the FASB issued Update No. 2010-09 “Subsequent Events (Topic 855)” (“2010-09”). 2010-09 clarifies the interaction of Accounting Standards Codification 855 “Subsequent Events” (“Topic 855”) with guidance issued by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) as well as the intended breadth of the reissuance disclosure provision related to subsequent events found in paragraph 855-10-50-4 in Topic 855. This update is effective for annual or interim periods ending after June 15, 2010. Management is currently evaluating whether these changes will have any material impact on its financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In February 2010 the FASB issued Update No. 2010-08 “Technical Corrections to Various Topics” (“2010-08”). 2010-08 represents technical corrections to SEC paragraphs within various sections of the Codification.

NOTE 2 – GOING CONCERN MATTERS

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. As shown in the accompanying consolidated financial statements, from May 23, 2007 (date of inception) through December 31, 2009 the Company incurred net losses attributable to common shareholders of $10,011,074 and used $5,406,854 in cash for operating activities. In addition, the Company anticipates its cash balance to be insufficient to support its operations and capital expenditure commitments for the next 12 months. These factors among others may indicate that the Company will be unable to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time. The accompanying statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

The Company’s existence is dependent upon management’s ability to develop profitable operations and acquiring other sources of financing. Management is devoting substantially all of its efforts to developing its products and services and acquiring these additional financing sources, there can be no assurance that the Company’s efforts will be successful. The planned principal operations have not commenced and no assurance can be given that management’s actions will result in profitable operations or the resolution of its liquidity problems.

NOTE 7 – NOTE PAYABLE, RELATED PARTY

Note payable, related party is due to shareholder and officer and is comprised of a non interest bearing demand note. The note was issued in exchange for acquisition of treasury shares.

NOTE 8 – CONVERTIBLE NOTES PAYABLE

Since inception, the Company issued an aggregate of $7,930,000 unsecured convertible notes payable due June 30, 2009 bearing interest at 8% per annum.

The convertible notes payable (which include principal and accrued interest thereon) are convertible at a price (the “Conversion Price”) based upon a 15% discount to the next established equity offering price per share (the “Conversion Shares”).

In accordance with Accounting Standards Codification subtopic 470-20, Debt-Debt With Conversion and Other Options (“ASC 470-20”), the Company recognized an embedded beneficial conversion feature present in the notes. The Company allocated a portion of the proceeds equal to the intrinsic value of that feature to additional paid-in capital. The Company recognized and measured an aggregate of $2,353,595 of the proceeds, which is equal to the intrinsic value of the embedded beneficial conversion feature, to additional paid-in capital and a discount against the notes. The debt discount attributed to the beneficial conversion feature is amortized over the notes’ maturity period (till June 30, 2009) as interest expense.

In connection with the issuance of the notes, the Company issued a commitment to issue detachable warrants granting the holders the right to acquire an aggregate of 3,206,956 shares of the Company’s common stock at $2.55 per share. The warrants expire on June 30, 2012. In accordance with ASC 470-20, the Company recognized the value attributable to the warrants in the amount of $954,184 to additional paid in capital and a discount against the notes. The Company valued the warrant commitment in accordance with ASC 470-20 using the Black-Scholes pricing model and the following assumptions: contractual terms of 3 to 5 years, an average risk free interest rate of 1.30% to 4.22%, a dividend yield of 0%, and volatility of 110.19% to 162.99%. The debt discount attributed to the value of the warrant commitment issued is amortized over the notes’ maturity period (till June 30, 2009) as interest expense.

Amortization of $2,512,085 and $688,329 was recorded for the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively.

NOTE 11 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Employment and consulting contracts

The Company entered into employment agreements with certain officers and employees of the Company each for a term ranging from 12 to 36 months. Total annual base salaries under these agreements are $551,000.

In the event certain employment agreements are terminated other than for cause, the company shall pay a lump sum on the date of termination, severance compensation to the executive in an amount equal to the sum of executive’s salary and bonus paid in the prior fiscal year. In the event the employment contract expires and the executive is not rehired in the same position under the terms and conditions of a new executive employment agreement mutually acceptable to the parties or in the event executive dies or becomes disabled, the company shall pay in lump sum on the date of termination severance compensation in an amount equal to the sum of executive’s salary and bonus paid in the prior fiscal year. In addition, executive (except in the case of his death) shall be entitled to continue health benefits for a period of 18 months or until the executive is employed full time with another employer.

The Company has entered into consulting agreements with individuals responsible for creating political liaisons, government agency and investor relations. The agreements are generally for a term of one year or less from inception and renewable unless either the Company or the consultant terminates such agreement by written notice. The Company incurred $750,996 and $289,190 in fees to these individuals for the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively, in a consulting role.

The Company has two commitments for business consulting services. One contract is from October 1, 2009 through September 30, 2010 at a rate of $20,000 per month. The other is from March 31, 2009 through March 31, 2010 at a rate of $30,000 per month, generating a total commitment of $270,000 for 2010.

Lease contracts

The Company leases its office space and warehouse facility for $4,501 per month through August 31, 2011. The Company has determined not to record deferred rent in order to recognize rent expense over the term of the lease on a straight line basis, as the amount has been determined to be immaterial to the overall consolidated financial statements. Rent expense for the twelve months ended December 31, 2009 and 2008 was $35,376 and $26,552, respectively. The renegotiated lease payments are reflected in the table below.

Future minimum lease payments are as follows for the year ending December 31:

Litigation

From time to time, we may become involved in various lawsuits and legal proceedings which arise in the ordinary course of business. However, litigation is subject to inherent uncertainties, and an adverse result in these or other matters may arise from time to time that may harm our business. Except as described below, we are currently not aware of any such legal proceedings that we believe will have, individually or in the aggregate, a material adverse affect on our business, financial condition or operating results.

NOTE 12 – RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

Due from related party

Pursuant to his employment agreement, Frederick C. Berndt entered into a revolving note agreement with the Company beginning on November 11, 2007. The Company initiated the note arrangement to allow Mr. Berndt to assist the Company, primarily in the early stages of development, personally with operating capital as required. In addition, the Company initiated the note to allow the Company to assist Mr. Berndt with cash advances used for costs incurred during the process of improving the Company’s marketing, political and regulatory exposure. The cash advances exceeded the amounts of reimbursable costs resulting in amounts Mr. Berndt owed back to the Company. Mr. Berndt has agreed to reimburse the Company for the excess costs of these promotions. These costs consisted primarily of travel and sponsorship costs. The Company charges 5% interest per annum calculated on the last day of the year based on a average of the quarterly balance of the note. The balance of the note including interest of $27,915 becomes due on December 31, 2009, with a term of 30 days to settle the note payable.

On December 15, 2009, the Company accepted 425,000 shares of the Company’s common stock held by Mr. Berndt in full settlement of the outstanding note receivable and related accrued interest for $787,144 and recorded an obligation to Mr. Berndt for $62,856. The fair value of the shares issued was determined based on the recent sale of the Company’s common stock.

Consistent with ASC 505-10-45 (“Equity-Other Presentation”), the amount recorded on the balance sheet is presented as a deduction from stockholders’ equity (deficit). This is also consistent with Rule 5-02.30 of Regulation S-X of the Code of Federal Regulations.

Facilities

Since April 1, 2008, the Company has occupied warehouse space provided by one of the Company’s founders. The Company agreed to pay a total of $1 per month for the space. The Company records this fee as rent expense when incurred. During this time period, the Company constructed a leasehold improvement to the leased warehouse space for the purpose of locating our bio- fuel manufacturing facility.

Donated Capital

During the year ended December 31, 2009; the Company’s Chief Executive Officer transferred 100,000 personally owned shares of the Company’s common stock for services rendered to the Company by an outside consultant and 900,000 shares to members of the board of directors. The fair value of $531,000 was charged to operations with an offset to additional paid in capital.

NOTE 13 – FAIR VALUE

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

F-21


11 GOOD ENERGY, INC. AND SUBSIDARY
(a development stage company)
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 2009 AND 2008

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

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

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

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

Items recorded or measured at fair value on a recurring basis in the accompanying consolidated financial statements consisted of the following items as of December 31, 2009:

The Company adopted the provisions of ASC 825-10 prospectively effective as of the beginning of Fiscal 2008. For financial assets and liabilities included within the scope of ASC 825-10, the Company will be required to adopt the provisions of ASC 825-10 prospectively as of the beginning of Fiscal 2009. The adoption of ASC 825-10 did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial position or results of operations.

The fair value of the assets, securities available for sale, at December 31, 2009 was grouped as Level 1 valuation as the market price was readily available.

NOTE 14 – INCOME TAXES

The Company has adopted Accounting Standards Codification subtopic 740-10, Income Taxes (“ASC 740-10”) which requires the recognition of deferred tax liabilities and assets for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statement or tax returns. Under this method, deferred tax liabilities and assets are determined based on the difference between financial statements and tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. Temporary differences between taxable income reported for financial reporting purposes and income tax purposes include, but not limited to, accounting for intangibles, debt discounts associated with convertible debt, equity based compensation and depreciation and amortization.

At December 31, 2009, the Company has available for federal income tax purposes a net operating loss carryforward of approximately $8,203,572, expiring in the year 2029, that may be used to offset future taxable income. The Company has provided a valuation reserve against the full amount of the net operating loss benefit, since in the opinion of management based upon the earnings history of the Company; it is more likely than not that the benefits will not be realized. Based upon the change in ownership rules under section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, if in the future the Company issues common stock or additional equity instruments convertible in common shares which result in an ownership change exceeding the 50% limitation threshold imposed by that section, all of the Company's net operating losses carryforwards may be significantly limited as to the amount of use in a particular years. Components of deferred tax assets as of December 31, 2009 are as follows. All or portion of the remaining valuation allowance may be reduced in future years based on an assessment of earnings sufficient to fully utilize these potential tax benefits.

At December 31, 2009, the significant components of the deferred tax assets (liabilities) are summarized below:

Item 14. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.

Section 102 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware permits a corporation to eliminate the personal liability of directors of a corporation to the corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages for a breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except where the director breached his duty of loyalty, failed to act in good faith, engaged in intentional misconduct or knowingly violated a law, authorized the payment of a dividend or approved a stock repurchase in violation of Delaware corporate law or obtained an improper personal benefit. The Company’s Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, provides that a director of the Company shall not be personally liable to it or its stockholders for monetary damages for any breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except to the extent that such exemption from liability or limitation thereof is not permitted under the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware as currently in effect or as the same may hereafter be amended.

Section 145 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware provides that a corporation has the power to indemnify a director, officer, employee, or agent of the corporation and other persons serving at the request of the corporation in related capacities against expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlements actually and reasonably incurred by the person in connection with an action, suit or proceeding to which he is or is threatened to be made a party by reason of such position, if such person acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and, in any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful, except that, in the case of actions brought by or in the right of the corporation, no indemnification shall be made with respect to any claim, issue or matter as to which such person shall have been adjudged to be liable to the corporation unless and only to the extent that the Court of Chancery or other adjudicating court determines that, despite the adjudication of liability but in view of all of the circumstances of the case, such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnify for such expenses which the Court of Chancery or such other court shall deem proper.

The Company’s Certificate of Incorporation provides that the Corporation shall, to the fullest extent permitted by Section 145 of the General Corporation Law of Delaware, as amended from time to time, indemnify each person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, by reason of the fact that he or she is or was, or has agreed to become, a director or officer of the Corporation, or is or was serving, or has agreed to serve, at the request of the Corporation, as a director, officer, partner, employee or trustee of, or in a similar capacity with, another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise (including any employee benefit plan) (all such persons being referred to hereafter as an “Indemnitee”), or by reason of any action alleged to have been taken or omitted in such capacity, against all expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by or on behalf of an Indemnitee in connection with such action, suit or proceeding and any appeal therefrom.

 

II-1

 

 



 

As a condition precedent to an Indemnitee’s right to be indemnified, the Indemnitee must notify the Corporation in writing as soon as practicable of any action, suit, proceeding or investigation involving such Indemnitee for which indemnity will or could be sought. With respect to any action, suit, proceeding or investigation of which the Corporation is so notified, the Corporation will be entitled to participate therein at its own expense and/or to assume the defense thereof at its own expense, with legal counsel reasonably acceptable to the Indemnitee.

In the event that the Corporation does not assume the defense of any action, suit, proceeding or investigation of which the Corporation receives notice under this Article, the Corporation shall pay in advance of the final disposition of such matter any expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred by an Indemnitee in defending a civil or criminal action, suit, proceeding or investigation or any appeal therefrom; provided, however, that the payment of such expenses incurred by an Indemnitee in advance of the final disposition of such matter shall be made only upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of the Indemnitee to repay all amounts so advanced in the event that it shall ultimately be determined that the Indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified by the Corporation as authorized in this Article, which undertaking shall be accepted without reference to the financial ability of the Indemnitee to make such repayment; and further provided that no such advancement of expenses shall be made under this Article if it is determined that (i) the Indemnitee did not act in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the Corporation, or (ii) with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, the Indemnitee had reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful.

The Corporation shall not indemnify an Indemnitee pursuant to this Article in connection with a proceeding (or part thereof) initiated by such Indemnitee unless the initiation thereof was approved by the Board of Directors of the Corporation. In addition, the Corporation shall not indemnify an Indemnitee to the extent such Indemnitee is reimbursed from the proceeds of insurance, and in the event the Corporation makes any indemnification payments to an Indemnitee and such Indemnitee is subsequently reimbursed from the proceeds of insurance, such Indemnitee shall promptly refund such indemnification payments to the Corporation to the extent of such insurance reimbursement.

All determinations hereunder as to the entitlement of an Indemnitee to indemnification or advancement of expenses shall be made in each instance (a) by a majority vote of the directors of the Corporation consisting of persons who are not at that time parties to the action, suit or proceeding in question (“disinterested directors”), whether or not a quorum, (b) by a committee of disinterested directors designated by majority vote of disinterested directors, whether or not a quorum, (c) if there are no disinterested directors, or if the disinterested directors so direct, by independent legal counsel (who may, to the extent permitted by law, be regular legal counsel to the Corporation) in a written opinion, or (d) by the stockholders of the Corporation.

The rights provided in this Article (i) shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which an Indemnitee may be entitled under any law, agreement or vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise, and (ii) shall inure to the benefit of the heirs, executors and administrators of the Indemnitees. The Corporation may, to the extent authorized from time to time by its Board of Directors, grant indemnification rights to other employees or agents of the Corporation or other persons serving the Corporation and such rights may be equivalent to, or greater or less than, those set forth in this Article.

The company’s By-laws provide for indemnification to the full extent permitted by Delaware law.

 Item 17. Undertakings.

(a)

The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:

 

 

(1)

 

To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement:

 

(i)

 

To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended;

 

(ii)

 

To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of this registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the SEC pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20 percent change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective registration statement;

 

(iii)

 

To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement;

 

 

(2)

 

That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

 

 

(3)

 

To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.

 

         (4)     That, for the purpose of determining liability under the Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser, each prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) as part of a registration statement relating to an offering, other than registration statements relying on Rule 430B or other than prospectuses filed in reliance on Rule 430A, shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of the date it is first used after effectiveness. Provided, however, that no statement made in a registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement or made in a document incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference into the registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement will, as to a purchaser with a time of contract of sale prior to such first use, supersede or modify any statement that was made in the registration statement or prospectus that was part of the registration statement or made in any such document immediately prior to such date of first use.
       
(b)     Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933, may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that, in the opinion of the SEC, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by them is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
