COLOMBIA
CLEAN POWER & FUELS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES
TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. SUMMARY
OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ORGANIZATION
Overview
Colombia
Clean Power & Fuels, Inc. (the “Company”) is a development stage company
engaged in the business of acquiring and developing coal mining assets, and the
mining and sale of coal, coke and coal by-products using traditional and clean
coal technologies, initially in Colombia, South America. The Company
anticipates that its initial operations will include the mining of
high-grade, metallurgical coal and coal coking, and that, within the next
several years, its operations will include power generation and alternative
energy production, such as coal gasification and coal-to-liquids. The
Company adopted its new operating strategy based on the size of the Colombia
coal market, and opportunities it has identified to acquire substantial coal
resources and to build mines in Colombia.
Colombian
coal is recognized worldwide for its high-heat-value, low-ash and low-sulfur
contents. As the nation’s second largest export item after oil,
investment and development of sustainable coal mining is an important priority
for the Colombian government. In Colombia, the state owns all
hydrocarbon reserves and private companies operate coal mines under concession
contracts with the state. The Company is in the process of securing concessions
in the Santander region of Colombia. The Company has established an
initial target to control over 300 million tons of metallurgical coal through
concessions. The Santander region was selected because of its large
metallurgical coal resources, its location on the Magdalena River with river
access for shipping, and its proximity to Colombia’s main pipeline and several
other refined products pipelines. Colombia
is the world’s tenth largest producer and fourth largest exporter of coal, with
an estimated 7 billion metric tons (“MT”) of recoverable reserves and 17 billion
MT of potential reserves
The
Company’s current operations are focused on exploration and development
activities. The Company has retained leading engineering and
geological services firms in the U.S. and Colombia to conduct exploration work
in selected concessions under consideration for acquisition by the
Company. The Company’s team of executives, advisors and partners is
comprised of experienced entrepreneurs and business professionals in the U.S.,
Colombia and China that have a broad breadth of experience in coal mining and
clean coal technologies as well as substantial industry
relationships.
Through a
wholly-owned subsidiary, the Company owns 100% of Energia Andina Santander
Resources S.A.S., a Colombian company established to acquire and develop coal
concessions. Energia Andina Santander Resources S.A.S. has
established a corporate office in Bogota and is in the process of recruiting its
team of operations, technical, financial, logistics, mining and marketing
employees and consultants.

History
and Basis of Reporting
The
accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in
conjunction with the Company's audited financial statements and
accompanying notes in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the
year ended December 31, 2009 filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange
Commission (“SEC”) on February 24, 2010. The accompanying (a) balance sheet as
of December 31, 2009, which has been derived from audited financial statements,
and (b) unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant
to SEC Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Certain information and note disclosures
normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America
(“GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to those rules and regulations,
although it believes that the disclosures made are adequate to make the
information not misleading.
The
unaudited results of operations for the interim periods shown in these financial
statements are not necessarily indicative of operating results for the entire
year. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated
financial statements recognize all adjustments of a normal recurring nature
considered necessary to fairly state the Company's consolidated
financial position as of June 30, 2010, and its consolidated results of
operations and comprehensive loss, and cash flows for the three months and six
months ended June 30, 2010.
The
consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States applicable to a going
concern. Except as otherwise disclosed, these principles assume that assets will
be realized and liabilities will be discharged in the ordinary course of
business.
The
Company was incorporated in the State of Nevada on November 6, 1996 under the
name “Freedom Resources Enterprises, Inc.” to research and publish a
self-improvement book based on the insights and understandings of major world
cultures. The working title for the proposed book was Personal Freedom and
Prosperity. The Company did not publish the book, but instead
used materials gathered during our research to develop a series of eight
self-help workshops. Each self-taught workshop consisted of an
audiotape and a workbook. The workshops were sold online under a
marketing agreement with Life Discovery Institute, a related party that
maintained a website dedicated to self-improvement products and
education. As of September 30, 2005, however, the Company had
generated total revenue of only $3,560 since inception. Because the
Company had not generated the expected revenue, in October 2005 it ceased all
business operations and decided to pursue other business
opportunities.
From
October 2005 to early May 2010, the Company did not engage in any business
activities. Prior to this period, the Company’s management had been
evaluating potential business opportunities that might be available to the
Company to preserve its shareholder’s investment in its common
shares.
On May 6,
2010, the Company entered into a subscription agreement (the “Subscription
Agreement”) with LIFE Power & Fuels, LLC (“LIFE”), pursuant to which it
issued to LIFE 47,700,000 shares of its common stock, which shares represented
approximately 94.1% of its issued and outstanding shares of common stock at such
time, elected one new director to its board of directors and changed its
management team. Concurrently with the closing of the transactions
contemplated by the Subscription Agreement, the Company ceased to
be a shell company, as defined in Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act, and
adopted a new plan of operations. See Note 2. Subsequently, LIFE sold
approximately 11,700,000 shares of the Company's common stock to certain related
parties. As of June 30, 2010, LIFE owned approximately 71.1% of the outstanding
shares of the Company.
In July
2010, the Company effected a reverse stock split of two shares for
every five shares of common stock outstanding. Accordingly,
outstanding shares of common stock and stock options were adjusted to account
for the effects of the reverse stock split.
Effective
July 28, 2010, the Company changed its name from Freedom Resources Enterprises,
Inc. to “Colombia Clean Power & Fuels, Inc.”
Principles
of Consolidation
The
accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the
Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts
and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Use
of Estimates
The
preparation of the financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires
management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of
assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at
the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and
expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those
estimates.
7
Concentrations
and Risks
Substantially
all of the Company's assets are located in the USA and in Colombia.
Cash
and Cash Equivalents
The
Company considers all highly-liquid investments with maturities of three months
or less, at the date of purchase, to be cash equivalents.
Fair
Value of Financial Instruments
The
Company’s financial instruments include cash and cash equivalents and
convertible notes payable. The Company believes its financial instruments
approximate their fair values due to their short-term maturities or the nature
and terms of the notes.
Other
Current Assets
Other
current assets include direct expenses incurred as a result of the Company’s
Note financing, for which the first closing was held on June 9, 2010 (see Note
4). Placement agent fees and other direct costs incurred in this
transaction were paid immediately but are amortized over the life of the
Notes.
Property
and Equipment
Property
and equipment consist of a deposit on a mining concession in Santander,
Colombia. The Company placed a deposit on the mining concession in
June 2010, and subsequently completed the acquisition of the concession in July
2010. The deposit on the mining concession is being valued at cost.
Derivative
Instruments
The
Company does not utilize derivative or hedge instruments in its financing
activities.
Foreign
Currency Translation
The
Company and its wholly-owned British Virgin Islands Subsidiary Energia Andina
Santander Ltd., maintain accounting records using U.S. dollars. Energia Andina
Santander Resources S.A.S., the Company’s Colombian subsidiary, maintains
accounting records using the Colombian Peso.
Foreign
currency transactions during the year are translated to their functional
currencies at the approximate rates of exchange on the dates of
transactions. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign
currencies at the balance sheet date are translated at the approximate rates of
exchange at that date. Non-monetary assets and liabilities are
translated at the rates of exchange prevailing at the time the asset or
liability was acquired. Exchange gains or losses are recorded in the
statement of operations.
The
financial statements of Energia Andina Santander Resources S.A.S. (whose
functional currency is the Peso) are translated into U.S. dollars using the
closing rate method. The balance sheet items are translated into U.S.
dollars using the exchange rates at the respective balance sheet
dates. The capital account is translated at the historical exchange
rate prevailing at the time of the transactions while income and expenses items
are translated at the average exchange rate for the year. All
exchange differences are recorded as currency translation adjustment within the
“stockholder’s equity.”
8
Comprehensive
Income
The
foreign currency translation gain or loss resulting from the translation of the
financial statements expressed in Peso to U.S. dollars is reported as currency
translation adjustment in the statements of operations and comprehensive loss
and stockholders’ equity (deficit).
Earnings
(Loss) Per Share
Earnings
(loss) per share in accordance with the provisions of the Financial Accounting
Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 260,
"Earnings Per Share." ASC 260 requires presentation of basic and diluted
earnings per share in conjunction with the disclosure of the methodology used in
computing such earnings per share. Basic earnings per share excludes dilution
and is computed by dividing income available to common stockholders by the
weighted average common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings
per share takes into account the potential dilution that could occur if
securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised and converted
into common stock using the treasury method.
The
Company's potentially dilutive common shares include convertible notes, stock
options and stock warrants. As of June 30, 2010, the Company had 360,000 stock
warrants and stock options exercisable to purchase, and convertible notes
that were convertible into, an aggregate of 360,000 shares of common
stock that were considered potentially dilutive common shares, and stock
warrants and stock options exercisable to purchase, and convertible notes that
were convertible into, an aggregate of 780,000 shares of common stock that
were considered anti-dilutive. However, the basic and diluted earnings per share
are the same for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009
because the Company was in a net loss position. See Note 5.
Earnings
(loss) per share are reflective of a two-for-five reverse stock split that
occurred on July 28, 2010. Per ASC 260, “if the
number of common shares outstanding decreases as a result of a reverse
stock split, the computations of basic and diluted earnings per
share shall be adjusted retroactively for all periods presented to reflect
that change in capital structure.”
Segments
The
Company operates in one business segment.
Reclassification
Certain
balances in the prior period financial statements were reclassified to conform
to the current period presentation.
2. PRIVATE
PLACEMENT
On May 6,
2010, the Company entered into a Subscription Agreement with
LIFE. Pursuant to the Subscription Agreement, the Company sold an
aggregate of 47,700,000 shares (the “Shares”) of its common stock, to LIFE for
an aggregate purchase price of $100,000, which funds were used to eliminate the
Company’s then current liabilities. The Shares represented 94.1% of
the Company’s issued and outstanding shares of common stock immediately
following the transaction, and the transaction resulted in a change in control
of the Company.
At the
closing, Neil Christiansen resigned as the Company’s President, effective
immediately, and Edward Mooney was appointed the Company’s President and Chief
Executive Officer and as a member of the Company’s board of
directors. At the closing, Daniel Carlson was also appointed the
Company’s Chief Financial Officer, Secretary and Treasurer.
Simultaneous
with the closing of the Subscription Agreement, the following transactions
occurred to reflect the payment of $100,000 of the purchase price to reduce the
Company’s liabilities as follows: $10,664 to pay accounts payable;
$8,689 to pay expenses incurred subsequent to March 31, 2010; and $80,647 to pay
advances to related parties. Related parties forgave $38,853 of loans
due to them, which has been recorded as a capital contribution.
Also
simultaneous with the closing of the Subscription Agreement, the Company issued
200,000 shares of its common stock upon conversion of a note payable in the
amount of $5,000 and related accrued interest of $1,439.
9
Subsequent
to the above-referenced transactions, the Company had 50,700,000 shares
outstanding prior to the reverse split of July 28, 2010. As of June 30, 2010,
the adjusted shares outstanding were 20,280,000.
3. CURRENT
LIABILITIES
Accounts
Payable and Accrued Liabilities
Accounts
payable and accrued liabilities of $87,722 existed at June 30,
2010. This figure represented professional fees incurred during May
and June, 2010 related to the purchase of a controlling interest
in the Company by LIFE, as well as fees incurred by auditors and financial
professionals.
4. CONVERTIBLE
NOTES PAYABLE
Notes
Payable
On June
9, 2010, the Company issued $500,000 aggregate principal amount of 10%
convertible promissory notes (the “Notes”) to accredited investors in a private
placement transaction. The proceeds of the offering of promissory
notes are being used to fund development stage activities of the Company,
including the identification, analysis and negotiation for coal resources in
Colombia that meet the Company’s criteria for mining, processing and export
potential. The Company may seek to issue up to an additional $2
million in Notes and utilize net proceeds to expand operations and acquire
coal concessions.
This
transaction was exempt from registration pursuant to Section 4(2) of the
Securities and Exchange Act of 1933, as amended, and Regulation D promulgated
thereunder. The Notes accrue interest at an annual rate of
10%. Principal and interest are due on June 30, 2012. The
Notes can be converted at any time into common stock at a rate equal to $2.50 of
principal for each share of common stock. At the closing of the Note issuance,
the Company issued to the Note investors a total of 200,000 five-year warrants
with a strike price of $0.01 per share. The discount on Notes Payable of
$8,671 reflects the Black-Scholes Fair Market Value of these warrants,
which was also reflected as an increase in Additional Paid in
Capital. The discount on Notes Payable is amortized over the life of
the notes and appears in the Statement of Operations and Comprehensive Loss as
an interest expense.

6. STOCKHOLDERS’
EQUITY
Reverse
Stock Split
On July
28, 2010, the Company executed a reverse stock split of its common stock in
which two new shares of common stock were issued for every five shares of common
stock held as of the date of the reverse stock split. This reverse split has
been applied retrospectively in the financial statements.
Issuance
of Warrants and Options
The
Company is seeking to recruit and retain experienced professionals from the
global energy, natural resource development and mining
industries. The Company will seek to offer compensation that is
commensurate with the qualifications of future employees and advisors, including
the ability to offer equity participation with vesting provisions typical of
early-stage public companies. On May 12, 2010, the Board of Directors
adopted the 2010 Equity Incentive Plan (“Incentive Plan”), The Incentive Plan
gives the Company the ability to grant stock options, stock appreciation rights
(“SARs”), restricted stock and stock bonuses (collectively, “Awards”) to
employees or consultants of the Company or of any subsidiary of the Company
and to non-employee members of the Company’s advisory board or the board of
directors of the Company or the Company’s subsidiaries.
The Board
of Directors has authorized 3,300,000 shares of common stock for
issuance under the
Incentive Plan. In the event of any change in the number of shares of Company
common stock outstanding by reason of any stock dividend or split, reverse stock
split, recapitalization, merger, consolidation, combination or exchange of
shares or similar corporate change, the maximum number of shares of common
stock with respect to which the Board of Directors may grant awards, appropriate
adjustments will be made to the shares subject to the Incentive Plan and to any
outstanding Awards. Shares available for Awards under the Incentive Plan may be
either newly-issued shares or treasury shares. If an Award or portion thereof
shall expire or terminate for any reason without having been exercised in full,
the unexercised shares covered by such Award shall be available for future
grants of Awards under the Incentive Plan.
On May
28, 2010, the Company granted options to purchase an aggregate of
740,000 shares of common stock to an independent board member and
various consultants to the Company. The options granted have a five-year term
and a strike price of $0.125 per share, with the exception of the options
granted to CleanTech IR, which options have a strike price of $0.01 per
share.

The
aggregate grant date fair value of stock option awards granted were determined
in accordance with ASC Topic 718 (formerly SFAS123(R). The
Company uses the Black-Scholes Options Pricing Model (Black-Scholes) to estimate
fair value of its stock-based awards. Black-Scholes requires various
judgmental assumptions, including estimating stock price volatility, expected
option life and forfeiture rates. If the Company had made different assumptions,
the amount of its deferred stock-based compensation, stock-based compensation
expense, net loss and net loss per share amounts could have been significantly
different. The Company believes that it has used reasonable methodologies,
approaches and assumptions to determine the fair value of its common stock and
that deferred stock-based compensation and related amortization were recorded
properly for accounting purposes. If any of the assumptions used change
significantly, stock-based compensation expense may differ materially in the
future from that recorded in the current period.
With
the exception of the 100,000 stock options granted to Cleantech IR, 25% of the
options shall vest immediately on the grant date, 25% of the options vest on the
first anniversary of the grant date, and 25% of the options vest annually on
each of the next two (2) anniversaries of the initial vesting date. 40% of
the 100,000 options granted to CleanTech IR vest immediately; while the
remaining 60% will vest upon meeting the condition that is tie-up to the
Company's financing. All options have a five year term, and expire on May
27, 2015. The exercise price of the stock options is equal to the greater of
$0.05 per share or the closing price of the common stock on the grant date. The
closing bid price of the common stock on both May 28, 2010 and June 9, 2010 was
$0.05 per share. The aggregate intrinsic value of the outstanding options at
June 30, 2010 was $4,000. The actual value, if any, an optionee may
realize will depend on the excess of the stock price over the exercise price on
the date the option is exercised. There is no assurance the value realized by an
optionee will be at or near the value estimated by the Black-Scholes pricing
model.
On June 9, 2010, the Company
issued five-year warrants to purchase 200,000 shares of common stock at an
exercise price of $0.01 to the investors in the Note financing. The
value of these warrants has been accounted for in shareholder’s equity as an
increase in additional paid in capital.

Description
of Business
We
are a development stage company, and currently engage in the business of
acquiring and developing coal mining assets, and the mining and sale of coal,
coke and coal by-products using traditional and clean coal technologies,
initially in Colombia, South America. The Company anticipates that
its primary operations will include the mining of high-grade, metallurgical
coal, coal coking, power generation and alternative energy production, such as
coal gasification and coal-to-liquids.
We completed
a name change to Colombia Clean Power & Fuels, Inc., effective July 28,
2010. The name change reflects our proposed new operating
business, which is to acquire and develop coal mining assets, and mine and sell
coal, coke and coal by-products using traditional and clean coal techniques –
primarily in Colombia, South America.
We
were incorporated under the name Freedom Resources Enterprises, Inc. in the
State of Nevada on November 6, 1996 to research and publish a self-improvement
book based on the insights and understandings of major world cultures and
subsequently developed a series of self improvement workshops and materials
that we sold online under a marketing agreement with Life Discovery
Institute, a related party that maintained a website dedicated to
self-improvement products and education. As of September 30, 2005,
however, we had generated total revenue of only $3,560 since
inception. Because we had not generated the expected revenue, in
October 2005,management ceased all business operations and decided to pursue
other business opportunities.
On May 6,
2010, we entered into a Subscription Agreement with LIFE Power & Fuels
LLC (“LIFE”), pursuant to which we issued to LIFE 47,700,000 shares of our
common stock, which shares represented approximately 94.1% of our issued and
outstanding shares of common stock at such time, elected one new director to our
board of directors and changed our management team. Concurrently with
the Closing, we ceased to be a shell company, as defined in Rule 12b-2 of the
Exchange Act, and adopted a new plan of operations.
In July
2010, the Company effected a reverse stock split of two shares for
every five shares of common stock outstanding. Effective July
28, 2010, the Company also changed its name from Freedom Resources Enterprises,
Inc. to “Colombia Clean Power & Fuels, Inc.”

10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009.
New
Accounting Standards
Refer to
Note 8 in the notes to unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for
a discussion of new accounting standards.
Three-Month
Period Ended June 30, 2010 and 2009
Our
revenues since inception total $3,560 and we have a cumulative net loss of
$350,435 from inception through June 30, 2010. We did not have
any revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2010 or 2009. For the
three months ended June 30, 2010, our net loss was $115,983 compared to $4,902
for the same period in 2009. The increase in our net loss was due to
increased expenses, primarily outside professional services for legal and
accounting services (including options issued to outside professionals as part
of their compensation), related to our recommencing operations during the
second quarter of 2010. Expenses during the three months ended June 30, 2010,
consisted of $112,861 in general and administrative expense and $3,122 in
interest expense. Expenses during the same period in 2009 consisted of $2,282 in
interest expense and $2,620 in general and administrative expenses. We
have $500,000 in convertible notes issued to investors. The notes were
issued in June, 2010 and accrued interest on the notes totaled $1,439 at June
30, 2010. Loss per share in the three months ended June 30, 2010 was
($0.01) compared to a loss of ($0.00) in the three months ended June 30,
2009.
13
Six-Month
Period Ended June 30, 2010 and 2009
We did
not have any revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2010 or 2009.
For the six months ended June 30, 2010, our net loss was $124,828 compared to
$15,208 for the same period in 2009. The increase in our net loss was due
to increased expenses, primarily outside professional services in legal and
accounting (including options issued to outside professionals as part of their
compensation), related to our recommencing operations during the second
quarter of 2010. Expenses during the six months ended June 30, 2010,
consisted of $119,264 in general and administrative expense and $5,564 in
interest expense. Expenses during the same period in 2009 consisted
of $4,457 in interest expense, and $10,751 in general and administrative
expenses. Loss per share for the six months ended June 30, 2010 was ($0.02)
compared to a similar loss of ($0.01) in the same period of 2009.
Liquidity
and Capital Resources
At June
30, 2010, we had $459,011 in cash and approximately $403,000 in working capital.
At June 30, 2010, we also had total liabilities of $584,397. We anticipate
funding our operation expenses with additional financings of debt and/or equity
securities.
As of
June 30, 2010, our total assets were $505,171 consisting of cash, prepaid
expenses and mining concessions. The increase in assets is a result of our Note
issuance on June 9, 2010 in which we issued $500,000 of notes to investors.
Total liabilities at June 30, 2010 were $584,397 consisting of $10,357 in wages
payable, $74,488 in accounts payable, $2,877 in accrued interest, notes payable
of $491,575 (net of a $8,425 discount on Notes payable due to warrant issuance),
and $5,100 in loans from Officers and Directors. The increase in accounts
payable was a result of the Company recommencing operations in June, 2010.
The loans from Officers and Directors bear no interest, are due on demand, and
were made by the President and a large shareholder of the
Company.
Management
anticipates that we will be dependent, for the near future, on additional
capital to fund our operating expenses and anticipated growth and the report of
our independent registered public accounting firm for the year ended December
31, 2009 expresses doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our
operating losses have been funded through the issuance of equity securities and
borrowings. We will need additional funding in order to continue our
business operations. While we continually look for additional financing sources,
in the current economic environment, the procurement of outside funding is
extremely difficult and there can be no assurance that such financing will be
available, or, if available, that such financing will be at a price that will be
acceptable to us. Failure to generate sufficient revenue or raise additional
capital would have an adverse impact on our ability to achieve our longer-term
business objectives, and would adversely affect our ability to continue
operating as a going concern.
Management
Compensation
During
the second quarter of 2010, no compensation was paid to management.

Balance-Sheet Arrangements
There are
no off-balance sheet arrangements or obligations that are not disclosed in the

3. Qualitative and Quantitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Not
applicable.
Item
4. Controls and Procedures
(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls
and Procedures.
Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive
Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, carried out an evaluation of the
effectiveness of our "disclosure controls and procedures" (as defined in the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act") Rules 13a-15(e) and
15-d-15(e)) as of the end of the period covered by this report (the "Evaluation
Date"). Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and
our Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of the Evaluation Date, our
disclosure controls and procedures are not effective to ensure that information
required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the
Exchange Act (i) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the
time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms and (ii) is accumulated and
communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive
Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow
timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Our lack
of employees results in our inability to have a sufficient segregation of
duties within our accounting and financial activities. This constitutes a
material weakness in our corporate governance structure and internal
controls.
14
(b) Changes in Internal Controls.
There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that
materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal
control over financial reporting subsequent to the date we carried out our most
recent evaluation.
