ITEM 1.         DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS.
 
Corporate History
 
Aspire Japan, Inc.was incorporated on February 2, 2005 in the State of Delaware. In September 2006, we became actively engaged in raising capital in order to implement its business plan to deliver products from American sources directly to the Japanese consumer in the form of mail-order business. In August 2008, after accumulating over $2 million, we decided to abandon the mail-order business and entered into the Intellectual Property Rights Trading Business which we have been unsuccessful in to date.  However we still intend to generate revenue and profits with the Intellectual Property Rights Trading Business. We have  not had any significant operations or activities from inception; accordingly, we are to be in the development stage. Ken Osako is our Chairman of the Board and Chief Financial Officer, as well as our controlling stockholder. Our main office is located at 5757 W. Century Blvd., Suite 700, Los Angeles, CA 90045 and the telephone number is (310) 348-7255.
 
Products and Services
 
Our principal business activity will be the buying and selling of intellectual property rights. Intellectual property rights are tradable, identifiable, and legally protected assets. Common forms of intellectual property rights include patents, copyrights, trademarks, trade secrets, know-how, and franchises.
 
In the business of brokering the purchase and sale of intellectual property rights, the valuation of such rights is a challenging but important part of the process. We will rely on third party professionals to value the intellectual property rights. We do not have contracts with specific vendors or partners to conduct valuation service for the intellectual property rights.
 
To conduct our business, we are searching for intellectual property rights that are valued with the net cash flow approach with the market consideration of only one market. Some of the intellectual property rights such as the combination of patents and the business know-how only contains a net cash flow approach with only one market; however, the valuation of such an intellectual property can increase with the addition of the other markets. We are trying to capitalize on this difference of the valuation with one market vs. the valuation with several markets.
 
Revenue Streams
 
We intend to generate revenues from brokering the purchase and sale of intellectual property rights, and collecting the mark-up on such transactions.
 
Marketing
 
We plan to position ourselves as a value added bridge for sellers and buyers of intellectual property rights. We intend to create an extensive proprietary database of buyer and seller information through the use of the internet and various small business networks throughout the world. We are working to build a database and network to market our services and our business.
 
Competition
 
The Intellectual Property Rights trading businesses are highly competitive. Our competitors include, but not limited to, the some government agencies, law firms specialized in intellectual properties, and intellectual property trading companies. Most of our competitors have much greater financial, marketing, and human resources than we have.
 
Online marketing activity is rapidly evolving and intensely competitive. Many competitors in this area have greater financial, technical and marketing resources than the Company. Database management, logistics and database management technologies may increase the competitive pressures on online business marketers, including the Company.

In February 2009 the former President and Chief Executive Officer filed a law suit against us and our current President and Chief Executive Officer claiming total damages of $1,205,587.   On May 18, 2009 the former President and Chief Executive Officer obtained a default judgment in the amount of $1,049,719 which includes the money award amount, prejudgment interest of 9%, post judgment interest of 9% through January 31, 2010, attorney fees, and other costs and disbursements.

As of January 31, 2010, we had cash of $388.

We do not believe we can satisfy our cash requirements for the next twelve months from revenue and through funds raised in our private placements. We plan to raise additional capital to be used for operating capital. We intend to raise these funds through additional private placements. We have not identified any sources of capital, lines of credit or loans at this time. Completion of our plan of operation is subject to attaining adequate revenue and through funds raised from private placements. We cannot assure investors that adequate revenues will be generated. In the event we are not successful in reaching our initial revenue targets, Management believes that it will raise the funds required and we would then be able to proceed with our business plan for the development and marketing of our products and services along with the commencement of our business activities in 2010.
 
In the absence of our projected revenues and the absence of additional capital we may be unable to proceed with our plan of operations. We anticipate that depending on market conditions and our plan of operations, we would incur operating losses in the foreseeable future. We base this expectation, in part, on the fact that we may not be able to generate enough gross profit from our operations to cover our operating expenses. Consequently, there is substantial doubt about our ability to continue to operate as a going concern.
 
As reflected in the accompanying financial statements, we are in the development stage, have a working capital deficiency of $1,803,782, a stockholders’ deficiency of $1,803,307 and have a negative cash flow from operations of $1,640,289 from inception. This raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on our ability to raise additional capital and implement our business plan. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if we are unable to continue as a going concern.
 
We have completed our efforts to become a public company and by doing so we have incurred and will continue to incur additional significant expenses for legal, accounting and related services.  As a public entity, subject to the reporting requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, there are be ongoing expenses associated with the ongoing professional fees for accounting, legal and a host of other expenses for annual reports and proxy statements as well as costs for (i) increased marketing and advertising to support any growth in sales for us; (ii) potential to hire additional personnel to manage and expand our operations.
 
Results of Operations
 
We did not have any operating income from inception through January 31, 2010. For the year ended January 31, 2010, we recognized a net loss of $54,799 and for the period from inception through January 31, 2010, we recognized a net loss of $3,485,479.  Expenses for the period were comprised of costs of professional fees of $42,266, consulting fees of $10,000, compensation expense of $90,000, severance expense of ($155,868) and general and administrative expenses of $11,977. The credit for severance expense was the result of us accruing more severance than was awarded by the court, therefore the difference was recorded as an adjustment to the severance expense.

For the year ended January 31, 2009, we recognized a net loss of $1,282,167.  Expenses for the period were comprised of costs of professional fees of $66,914, consulting fees of $55,000, compensation of $90,000, severance expense of $1,005,587 and general and administrative expenses of $88,935.

Commitments

On August 13, 2008, we entered into an Intellectual Property Rights Sales Agreement (the “Eiwa Agreement”) with Eiwa Kokudo Kankyo, Inc. (“Eiwa”).  Pursuant to the Eiwa Agreement, we agreed to pay approximately $5,454,545 (equal to 600 Million YEN) to Eiwa for the Intellectual Property of the Aqua-make system.  In addition, we are entitled to sell the rights of this Intellectual Property to the third party upon signing the agreement.  Pursuant to the agreement the Company entered into an agreement with EIWA to pay the purchase price in the following manner:
 
 
 
-7-

 
 
 
1.  
August 29, 2008, 50 Million Japanese Yen (Approximately $454,545)
   
2.  
September 12, 2008, 50 Million Japanese Yen (Approximately $454,545)
   
3.  
September 30, 2008, 200 Million Japanese Yen (Approximately $1,818,182)
   
4.  
January 31, 2009, 300 Million Japanese Yen (Approximately $2,727,273)
 
On November 27, 2008, we notified Eiwa that we were unilaterally canceling the agreement. We have not made any payments and we are in default under the payment terms of the agreement.  If Eiwa does not agree to cancel the agreement, we might be required to make the payments as per the agreement.  To date, we have not been made aware of whether Eiwa is pursuing any remedies associated with the cancellation.  It is very possible that we will incur a material liability as a result of this cancelled agreement if Eiwa pursues any legal remedies.

The reason no liability has been recorded for the cancelled purchase agreement with Eiwa is because we have not recorded any amounts due under the intangible purchase agreement as no property has been received – we do not receive the IP until all payments have been made. Since no payments have been made and no property has been received, this is disclosed as a commitment only.
 
Thereafter, on August 15, 2008, we entered into an Intellectual Property Rights Sales Agreement with Global Investment Service, Inc. (“GIS”) to sell the Intellectual Property of the Aqua-make system to GIS for $14,545,455 (equal to 1.6 Billion YEN).  Pursuant to the GIS Agreement, we have the right of first refusal to buy  Intellectual Property back from GIS in the event that GIS agrees to sell the intellectual property within three years from August 15, 2008 by issuing 3.2 million shares of our common stock.  We also need to agree to purchase the Intellectual Property to exercise the buy back option. As part of such conditions, we have agreed not to split our stock for the next three years.  Pursuant to the agreement, GIS entered into a note with us to pay the purchase price in the following manner:
 
1.  
August 29, 2008, 200 Million Japanese Yen (Approximately $1,818,182)
   
2.  
September 30, 2008, 400 Million Japanese Yen (Approximately $3,636,354)
   
3.  
January 31, 2009, 1 Billion Japanese Yen (Approximately $9,090,909)
 
Pursuant to the agreement, we are required to pay a fixed royalty amount of 13,340,000 Japanese Yen (Approximately $121,273) monthly to GIS for the license to operate the business and to use our best efforts to market the product in the United States. As of April 21, 2010, we have not made any royalty payments.

As of October 31, 2008, we have received payments of approximately $84,949 and Global Investment Services, Inc. is in default under the payment terms of the agreement.  On November 30, 2008, we received notice of termination of the agreement from Global Investment Services, Inc. As of January 31, 2009, we have recorded a gain in liquidated damages of $84,949.
 
Critical Accounting Policies
 
The Company’s financial statements and related public financial information are based on the application of accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”). GAAP requires the use of estimates; assumptions, judgments and subjective interpretations of accounting principles that have an impact on the assets, liabilities, revenue and expense amounts reported. These estimates can also affect supplemental information contained in our external disclosures including information regarding contingencies, risk and financial condition. We believe our use if estimates and underlying accounting assumptions adhere to GAAP and are consistently and conservatively applied. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ materially from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. We continue to monitor significant estimates made during the preparation of our financial statements.
 
 
 
-8-

 
 
Our significant accounting policies are summarized in Note 1 of our financial statements. While all these significant accounting policies impact its financial condition and results of operations, we view certain of these policies as critical. Policies determined to be critical are those policies that have the most significant impact on our financial statements and require management to use a greater degree of judgment and estimates. Actual results may differ from those estimates. Our management believes that given current facts and circumstances, it is unlikely that applying any other reasonable judgments or estimate methodologies would cause effect on our results of operations, financial position or liquidity for the periods presented in this report.
 
Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In June 2009, the FASB issued Financial Accounting Standards Codification No. 860 – Transfers and Servicing. FASB ASC No. 860 improves the relevance, representational faithfulness, and comparability of the information that a reporting entity provides in its financial statements about a transfer of financial assets; the effects of a transfer on its financial position, financial performance, and cash flows; and a transferor’s continuing involvement, if any, in transferred financial assets. FASB ASC No. 860 is effective as of the beginning of each reporting entity’s first annual reporting period that begins after November 15, 2009, for interim periods within that first annual reporting period and for interim and annual reporting periods thereafter. The Company is evaluating the impact the adoption of FASB ASC No. 860 will have on its financial statements.
 
In June 2009, the FASB issued Financial Accounting Standards Codification No. 810 – Consolidation. FASB ASC No. 810 is effective as of the beginning of each reporting entity’s first annual reporting period that begins after November 15, 2009, for interim periods within that first annual reporting period, and for interim and annual reporting periods thereafter. The Company is evaluating the impact the adoption of FASB ASC No. 810 will have on its financial statements.
 
In June 2009, the FASB issued Financial Accounting Standards Codification No. 105-GAAP.   The FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“Codification”) will be the single source of authoritative nongovernmental U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Rules and interpretive releases of the SEC under authority of federal securities laws are also sources of authoritative GAAP for SEC registrants. FASB ASC No. 105 is effective for interim and annual periods ending after September 15, 2009. All existing accounting standards are superseded as described in FASB ASC No. 105. All other accounting literature not included in the Codification is nonauthoritative. The Adoption of FASB ASC No. 105 did not have an impact on our financial statements. 
 
In October 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued an Accounting Standard Update (“ASU”) No. 2009-13, which addresses the accounting for multiple-deliverable arrangements to enable vendors to account for products or services separately rather than as a combined unit and modifies the manner in which the transaction consideration is allocated across the separately identified deliverables. The ASU significantly expands the disclosure requirements for multiple-deliverable revenue arrangements. The ASU will be effective for the first annual reporting period beginning on or after June 15, 2010, and may be applied retrospectively for all periods presented or prospectively to arrangements entered into or materially modified after the adoption date. Early adoption is permitted, provided that the guidance is retroactively applied to the beginning of the year of adoption. The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU No. 2009-13 to have any effect on its financial statements upon its required adoption on January 1, 2011.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors of:
Aspire Japan, Inc.

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Aspire Japan, Inc. “the Company” (a development stage company) as of January 31, 2010 and 2009, and the related statements of operations, changes in stockholders’ deficit and cash flows for the two years then ended and the period February 2, 2005 (inception) to January 31, 2010. 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 audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States).  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. 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 audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly in all material respects, the financial position of Aspire Japan, Inc. (a development stage company) as of January 31, 2010 and 2009 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the two years then ended and the period February 2, 2005 (inception) to January 31, 2010 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, the Company has a net loss from inception of $3,485,479, a working capital deficiency of $1,803,782, a stockholders’ deficit of $1,803,307 and used cash in operations of $1,640,289 from inception. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.  Management's plans concerning these matters are also described in Note 1. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
As of January 31, 2010
 
 
NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ORGANIZATION

Organization

ASPIRE JAPAN, INC. (f/k/a Dream Media, Inc.) (“the Company”) was incorporated on February 2, 2005 in the State of Delaware. In September 2006, the Company became actively engaged in raising capital in order to implement its business plan to deliver products from American sources directly to the Japanese consumer in the form of mail-order business. In August 2008, after accumulating over $2 million, the Company decided to abandon the mail-order business. Then, the Company entered into the Intellectual Property Rights Trading Business. In August 2008, the Company was unsuccessful in a business transaction for the Intellectual Property Rights Trading.  The Company still intends to generate revenue and profits with the Intellectual Property Rights Trading Business at this point. The Company has not had any significant operations or activities from inception; accordingly, the Company is deemed to be in the development stage.
 
Use of Estimates:

The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities, and disclosure of contingent liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those results.
 
Revenue Recognition
 
The Company recognizes revenue on arrangements in accordance with FASB Accounting Standards Codification No. 605 - Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements. In all cases, revenue is recognized only when the price is fixed or determinable, persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, the service is performed and collectability of the resulting receivable is reasonably assured.
  
Cash and Cash Equivalents, and Credit Risk:

For purposes of reporting cash flows, the Company considers all cash accounts with maturities of 90 days or less and which are not subject to withdrawal restrictions or penalties, as cash and cash equivalents in the accompanying balance sheet.

The Company maintains a portion of its deposits in a financial institution that insures its deposits with the FDIC insurance up to $250,000 per depositor and deposits in excess of such insured amounts represent a credit risk to the Company. At January  31, 2010 and January 31, 2009 the Company had $0 in cash that was uninsured. In addition, at January 31, 2010 and 2009, the Company had total cash of $0 and $138, respectively in a Japanese bank which is uninsured.

Property and Equipment
 
Property and equipment are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Depreciation is provided using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of five years.
 
Advertising Costs

Advertising costs are expensed as incurred. Total advertising costs charged to operations for the years ended  January  31, 2010  and 2009 and the period February 2, 2005 (Inception) to January 31, 2010  amounted to $0, $0, and $156,562 respectively.
 
Reclassification of Prior Period Accounts
 
Certain amounts from prior periods have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.

Going Concern

The Company's financial statements have been presented on the basis that it is a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has a net loss of $3,485,479 from inception, a working capital deficiency of $1,803,782 and a stockholders’ deficit of $1,803,307 as of January 31, 2010 and used cash in operations of $1,640,289 from inception. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Management continues to actively seek additional sources of capital to fund current and future operations. There is no assurance that the Company will be successful in continuing to raise additional capital and establish probable or proven reserves. These financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of these uncertainties.

Stock Compensation

The Company follows FASB Accounting Standards Codification No. 718 – Compensation – Stock Compensation for share based payments to employees.  The Company follows FASB Accounting Standards Codification No. 505 for share based payments to Non-Employees.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The carrying amounts of the Company’s financial instruments including prepaid expenses, accounts payable, accrued expenses, loans and notes payable, and loans payable-related party approximate fair value due to the relatively short period to maturity for these instruments.
 
Foreign Currency Translation
 
The functional currency of the Company is the United States Dollar.  The financial statements of the Company are translated to United States dollars using year-end exchange rates as to assets and liabilities and average exchange rates as to revenues and expenses.  Capital accounts are translated at their historical exchange rates when the capital transaction occurred.  Net gains and losses resulting from foreign exchange translations are included in the statements of operations and stockholders’ equity as other comprehensive income (loss).
 
Earnings Per Share:
 
Basic earnings per share ("EPS") is computed by dividing earnings available to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period as required by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) under FASB Accounting Standards Codification No. 260 - Earnings Per Share. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution of securities that could share in the earnings. As of January 31, 2010 and 2009 there were no common share equivalents outstanding.
  
Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes under FASB Codification Topic 740-10-25 (“ASC 740-10-25”).  Under ASC 740-10-25, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases.  Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled.  Under ASC 740-10-25, the effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
 
In June 2009, the FASB issued Financial Accounting Standards Codification No. 860 – Transfers and Servicing. FASB ASC No. 860 improves the relevance, representational faithfulness, and comparability of the information that a reporting entity provides in its financial statements about a transfer of financial assets; the effects of a transfer on its financial position, financial performance, and cash flows; and a transferor’s continuing involvement, if any, in transferred financial assets. FASB ASC No. 860 is effective as of the beginning of each reporting entity’s first annual reporting period that begins after November 15, 2009, for interim periods within that first annual reporting period and for interim and annual reporting periods thereafter. The Company is evaluating the impact the adoption of FASB ASC No. 860 will have on its financial statements.

In June 2009, the FASB issued Financial Accounting Standards Codification No. 810 – Consolidation. FASB ASC No. 810 is effective as of the beginning of each reporting entity’s first annual reporting period that begins after November 15, 2009, for interim periods within that first annual reporting period, and for interim and annual reporting periods thereafter. The Company is evaluating the impact the adoption of FASB ASC No. 810 will have on its financial statements.
 
In June 2009, the FASB issued Financial Accounting Standards Codification No. 105-GAAP.   The FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“Codification”) will be the single source of authoritative nongovernmental U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Rules and interpretive releases of the SEC under authority of federal securities laws are also sources of authoritative GAAP for SEC registrants. FASB ASC No. 105 is effective for interim and annual periods ending after September 15, 2009. All existing accounting standards are superseded as described in FASB ASC No. 105. All other accounting literature not included in the Codification is nonauthoritative. The Adoption of FASB ASC No. 105 did not have an impact on our financial statements. 
 
In October 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued an Accounting Standard Update (“ASU”) No. 2009-13, which addresses the accounting for multiple-deliverable arrangements to enable vendors to account for products or services separately rather than as a combined unit and modifies the manner in which the transaction consideration is allocated across the separately identified deliverables. The ASU significantly expands the disclosure requirements for multiple-deliverable revenue arrangements. The ASU will be effective for the first annual reporting period beginning on or after June 15, 2010, and may be applied retrospectively for all periods presented or prospectively to arrangements entered into or materially modified after the adoption date. Early adoption is permitted, provided that the guidance is retroactively applied to the beginning of the year of adoption. The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU No. 2009-13 to have any effect on its financial statements upon its required adoption on January 1, 2011.

On August 13, 2008, we entered into an Intellectual Property Rights Sales Agreement (the “Eiwa Agreement”) with Eiwa Kokudo Kankyo, Inc. (“Eiwa”).  Pursuant to the Eiwa Agreement, we agreed to pay approximately $5,454,545 (equal to 600 Million YEN) to Eiwa for the Intellectual Property of the Aqua-make system.  In addition, we are entitled to sell the rights of this Intellectual Property to the third party upon signing the agreement.  Pursuant to the agreement the Company entered into an agreement with EIWA to pay the purchase price in the following manner:
 
1.  
August 29, 2008, 50 Million Japanese Yen (Approximately $454,545)
   
2.  
September 12, 2008, 50 Million Japanese Yen (Approximately $454,545)

3.  
September 30, 2008, 200 Million Japanese Yen (Approximately $1,818,182)
   
4.  
January 31, 2009, 300 Million Japanese Yen (Approximately $2,727,273)
 
On November 27, 2008, we notified Eiwa that we were unilaterally canceling the agreement. We have not made any payments and we are in default under the payment terms of the agreement.  If Eiwa does not agree to cancel the agreement, we might be required to make the payments as per the agreement.  To date, are not aware of Eiwa pursuing any remedies associated with the cancellation.  It is very possible that we will incur a material liability as a result of this cancelled agreement if Eiwa pursues legal remedies.

The reason no liability has been recorded for the cancelled purchase agreement with Eiwa is because we have not recorded any amounts due under the intangible purchase agreement as no property has been received – we do not receive the IP until all payments have been made. Since no payments have been made and no property has been received, this is disclosed as a commitment only.
 
Thereafter, on August 15, 2008, we entered into an Intellectual Property Rights Sales Agreement with Global Investment Service, Inc. (“GIS”) to sell the Intellectual Property of the Aqua-make system to GIS for $14,545,455 (equal to 1.6 Billion YEN).  Pursuant to the GIS Agreement, we have the right of first refusal to buy Intellectual Property back from GIS in the event that GIS agrees to sell the intellectual property within three years from August 15, 2008 by issuing 3.2 million shares of our common stock.  We also need to agree to purchase the Intellectual Property to exercise the buy back option. As part of such conditions, we have agreed not to split our stock for the next three years.  Pursuant to the agreement, GIS entered into a note with us to pay the purchase price in the following manner:
 
1.  
August 29, 2008, 200 Million Japanese Yen (Approximately $1,818,182)
   
2.  
September 30, 2008, 400 Million Japanese Yen (Approximately $3,636,354)

3.  
January 31, 2009, 1 Billion Japanese Yen (Approximately $9,090,909)
 
Pursuant to the agreement, we are required to pay a fixed royalty amount of 13,340,000 Japanese Yen (Approximately $121,273) monthly to GIS for the license to operate the business and to use our best efforts to market the product in the United States. As of April 21, 2010, we have not made any royalty payments.

As of October 31, 2008, we received payments of approximately $84,949 and Global Investment Services, Inc. is in default under the payment terms of the agreement.  On November 30, 2008, we received notice of termination of the agreement from Global Investment Services, Inc. As of January 31, 2009, we have recorded a gain in liquidated damages of $84,949.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
 
Pursuant to Rule 13a-15(b) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (“Exchange Act”), the Company carried out an evaluation, with the participation of the Company’s management, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”) (the Company’s principal financial and accounting officer), of the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined under Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based upon that evaluation, the Company’s CEO and CFO concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures  were not  effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that the Company files or submits under the Exchange Act, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including the Company’s CEO and CFO, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Management's Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting.

The management of the Company is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting for the Company.  Our internal control system was designed to, in general, provide reasonable assurance to the Company’s management and board regarding the preparation and fair presentation of published financial statements, but because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements.  Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Our management assessed the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of January 31, 2010.  The framework used by management in making that assessment was the criteria set forth in the document entitled “ Internal Control – Integrated Framework” issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on that assessment, our management has determined that as of January 31, 2010, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting was not effective for the purposes for which it is intended based on the following material weaknesses:
 
-        We do not have a system in place to ensure all of our consulting agreements are timely reconciled to the financial statements.
 
This annual report does not include an attestation report of the Company’s registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management's report was not subject to attestation by the Company's registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit the Company to provide only management's report in this annual report.
