UNIVERSAL BIOENERGY, INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 
NOTE 1 - DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
 
Overview of Our Company
 
Universal Bioenergy Inc., is an alternative energy company headquartered in Irvine, California. Our new strategic direction is to develop and market a diverse product line of alternative and natural energy products including, natural gas, solar, biofuels, wind, wave, tidal, and green technology products.   We plan to continue our growth by means of mergers and acquisitions of other companies in the alternative energy and related industries, and to acquire patents, and license technologies to fully exploit in the marketplace. We have adapted our business strategy to become a more vertically integrated company, to give us greater management control over our supply chain, from the producer, through marketing, distribution, and directly to the customer. We believe this will bring greater revenues for our company and more value to our shareholders.
Company History

Universal Bioenergy, Inc. (UBRG) f/k/a Palomine Mining, Inc. was incorporated on August 13, 2004 under the laws of the State of Nevada.

Universal Bioenergy North America, Inc (“UBNA”), our wholly owned subsidiary, was incorporated in the State of Nevada on January 23, 2007.

UBNA was originally organized to operate and produce biodiesel fuel using primarily soybean and other vegetable oil and grease in a refining process to yield biodiesel fuel and a marketable byproduct of glycerin. The Company’s refinery is located in Nettleton, Mississippi. UBNA and UBRG are hereafter referred to as “(the Company)”.

In October 2007, UBNA entered into a Purchase Agreement with UBRG. In October 2007, UBRG, a then shell corporation, acquired UBNA. On October 24, 2007, the Company changed its name from Palomine Mining Inc., to Universal Bioenergy, Inc. to better reflect its business plan. The purchase was consummated on December 6, 2007.

On March 7, 2008, the Board of Directors approved a change in the Company’s fiscal year end from January 31 to December 31.

NOTE 2 - GOING CONCERN ISSUES
 
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America which contemplate continuation of the Company as a going concern.  The Company has an accumulated losses  through June 30, 2010 of $15,390,667.  Further, the Company has inadequate working capital to maintain or develop its operations, and is dependent upon funds from private investors and the support of certain stockholders.  
 
These factors raise some doubt about the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern.  The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of these uncertainties.   To continue as a going concern, Management is planning to raise additional funds through debt or equity capital to fund the growth of the Company. Management has re-engineered and re-positioned the Company, through its recent mergers and acquisitions.. Management is hopeful that the Company will be successful in raising additional capital to fund the Company’s plans for growth and expansion.
 
The Company's ability to meet its obligations and continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to obtain additional financing, achievement of profitable operations and/or generating continuing additional revenue through the sale of natural gas and other alternative energy products. Although the Company plans to pursue additional debt and/or equity financing, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to secure financing when needed or to obtain such financing on terms satisfactory to the Company, if at all.
 
NOTE 3 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Interim Financial Statements
 
The accompanying interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In our opinion, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three month and six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2010. While management of the Company believes that the disclosures presented herein and adequate and not misleading, these interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and the footnotes thereto for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009 as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
 
NOTE 4 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
The Company prepares its financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.  Significant accounting policies are as follows:

7

 
Principle of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Universal Bioenergy, Inc., Universal Bioenergy North America, Inc, and NDR Energy Group.  Intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in the consolidated financial statements.

On April 12, 2010 the Company acquired a direct 49% financial interest in NDR.  Additionally, an entity owned by officers of the Company acquired an additional 2% financial interest in NDR for a total direct and indirect financial interest of 51% of NDR The operating agreement of NDR, an LLC provides for voting in proportion to ownership.  The Company has 51% voting control of NDR and has accordingly consolidated its financial position, results of operations, and cash flows into these financial statements.

Use of Estimates and Assumptions

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect (i) the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, (ii) the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities known to exist as of the date the financial statements are published, and (iii) the reported amount of net sales and expenses recognized during the periods presented. Adjustments made with respect to the use of estimates often relate to improved information not previously available. Uncertainties with respect to such estimates and assumptions are inherent in the preparation of financial statements; accordingly, actual results could differ from these estimates.
 
Revenue and Cost Recognition

Revenue includes product sales. The Company recognizes revenue from the sale of biodiesel fuel and related byproducts at the time title to the product transfers, the amount is fixed and determinable, evidence of an agreement exists and the customer bears the risk of loss, net of provision for rebates and sales allowances in accordance with ASC Topic 605 “Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements”.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. At June 30, 2010 and 2009 the Company had no cash equivalents.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment is recorded at cost and depreciated over the estimated useful lives of the assets using principally the straight-line method. When items are retired or otherwise disposed of, income is charged or credited for the difference between net book value and proceeds realized. Ordinary maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred, and replacements and betterments are capitalized.

The range of estimated useful lives used to calculated depreciation for principal items of property and equipment are as follow:
 
Asset Category
 
Depreciation/ 
Amortization Period
Building
 
40 Years
Plant Equipment
 
15 Years
Furniture and Fixture
 
3 Years
Office equipment

Leasehold improvements
 
5 Years

Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets
 
The Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 350 Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, effective July 1, 2002. In accordance with (“ASC Topic 350”) "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets," goodwill, represents the excess of the purchase price and related costs over the value assigned to net tangible and identifiable intangible assets of businesses acquired and accounted for under the purchase method, acquired in business combinations is assigned to reporting units that are expected to benefit from the synergies of the combination as of the acquisition date. Under this standard, goodwill and intangibles with indefinite useful lives are no longer amortized. The Company assesses goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment annually during the fourth quarter, or more frequently if events and circumstances indicate impairment may have occurred in accordance with ASC Topic 350. If the carrying value of a reporting unit's goodwill exceeds its implied fair value, the Company records an impairment loss equal to the difference. ASC Topic 350 also requires that the fair value of indefinite-lived purchased intangible assets be estimated and compared to the carrying value. The Company recognizes an impairment loss when the estimated fair value of the indefinite-lived purchased intangible assets is less than the carrying value.
 
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

In accordance with ASC Topic 365, long-lived assets, such as property, plant, and equipment, and purchased intangibles, are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Goodwill and other intangible assets are tested for impairment.  Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its estimated future cash flows, an impairment charge is recognized by the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the asset. There were events or changes in circumstances that necessitated an impairment of long lived assets. During 2008, the Company impaired its long lived assets based on the value of the Land, Equipment, and building facility by $1,655,972.  Due to the reduction in valuations in Mississippi of land and building and diminished economic viability of biodiesel production the total valuations of that acquisition has reduced significantly the overall value of the assets to $290,000.

Income Taxes

Deferred income taxes are provided based on the provisions of ASC Topic 740, "Accounting for Income Taxes", to reflect the tax consequences in future years of differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their financial reporting amounts based on enacted tax laws and statutory tax rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income.  Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.
 
9

 
The Company adopted the provisions of ASC Topic 740; "Accounting For Uncertainty In Income Taxes-An Interpretation Of ASC Topic 740 ("ASC Topic 740").  ASC Topic 740 contains a two-step approach to recognizing and measuring uncertain tax positions. The first step is to evaluate the tax position for recognition by determining if the weight of available evidence indicates it is more likely than not, that the position will be sustained on audit, including resolution of related appeals or litigation processes, if any. The second step is to measure the tax benefit as the largest amount, which is more than 50% likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement. The Company considers many factors when evaluating and estimating the Company's tax positions and tax benefits, which may require periodic adjustments. At June 30, 2010, the Company did not record any liabilities for uncertain tax positions.

Share-Based Compensation

The Company applies Topic 718 “Share-Based Payments” (“Topic 718”) to share-based compensation, which requires the measurement of the cost of services received in exchange for an award of an equity instrument based on the grant-date fair value of the award.  Compensation cost is recognized when the event occurs.  The Black-Scholes option-pricing model is used to estimate the fair value of options granted.

Concentration of Credit Risk

The Company maintains its operating cash balances in banks located in Irvine, California.  The Federal Depository Insurance Corporation (FDIC) insures accounts at each institution up to $250,000.
 
Earnings Per Share
 
Basic income (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the reporting period. Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if stock options, warrants, and other commitments to issue common stock were exercised or equity awards vest resulting in the issuance of common stock that could share in the earnings of the Company. Diluted loss per share is the same as basic loss per share, because the effects of the additional securities, a result of the net loss would be anti-dilutive.  

Fair Value of Financial Instruments
 
The Company's financial instruments consist primarily of cash, accounts payable and accrued expenses, and debt.  The carrying amounts of such financial instruments approximate their respective estimated fair value due to the short-term maturities and approximate market interest rates of these instruments.  The estimated fair value is not necessarily indicative of the amounts the Company would realize in a current market exchange or from future earnings or cash flows.

The Company adopted ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements (“ASC Topic 820”), which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements.  The standard provides a consistent definition of fair value which focuses on an exit price that would be received upon sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.  The standard also prioritizes, within the measurement of fair value, the use of market-based information over entity specific information and establishes a three-level hierarchy for fair value measurements based on the nature of inputs used in the valuation of an asset or liability as of the measurement date.
 
10

 
The three-level hierarchy for fair value measurements is defined as follows:

¨
Level 1 – inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets;
¨
Level 2 – inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable or the asset or liability other than quoted prices, either directly or indirectly including inputs in markets that are not considered to be active;
¨
Level 3 – inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value.

Reclassification

Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to current year presentations.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Recent accounting pronouncements that the Company has adopted or that will be required to adopt in the future are summarized below.
 
In January 2010, the FASB issued an amendment to ASC 505, Equity, where entities that declare dividends to shareholders that may be paid in cash or shares at the election of the shareholders are considered to be a share issuance that is reflected prospectively in EPS, and is not accounted for as a stock dividend. This standard is effective for interim and annual periods ending on or after December 15, 2009 and is to be applied on a retrospective basis. The adoption of this standard is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
 
On February 24, 2010, the FASB issued guidance in the “Subsequent Events” topic of the FASC to provide updates including: (1) requiring the company to evaluate subsequent events through the date in which the financial statements are issued; (2) amending the glossary of the “Subsequent Events” topic to include the definition of “SEC filer” and exclude the definition of “Public entity”; and (3) eliminating the requirement to disclose the date through which subsequent events have been evaluated. This guidance was prospectively effective upon issuance. The adoption of this guidance did not impact the Company’s results of operations of financial condition.

In January 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued guidance to amend the disclosure requirements related to recurring and nonrecurring fair value measurements. The guidance requires new disclosures on the transfers of assets and liabilities between Level 1 (quoted prices in active market for identical assets or liabilities) and Level 2 (significant other observable inputs) of the fair value measurement hierarchy, including the reasons and the timing of the transfers. Additionally, the guidance requires a roll forward of activities on purchases, sales, issuance, and settlements of the assets and liabilities measured using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3 fair value measurements). The guidance became effective for us with the reporting period beginning January 1, 2010, except for the disclosure on the roll forward activities for Level 3 fair value measurements, which will become effective for us with the reporting period beginning July 1, 2011. Other than requiring additional disclosures, adoption of this new guidance did not have a material impact on our financial statements.

In September 18, 2008 the Company converted the Notes payables of Lacroix International Holdings, Ltd. in the amount of $1,818,821 of principle and accrued interest for 82,500 preferred Series B shares.

On September 18, 2008 the Company converted the notes payables of Mortenson Financial Ltd. in the amount of $745,991 of principle and accrued interest for 34,000 of preferred Series B shares and converted another note in the amount of $300,000 to 15,850 of preferred Series B Shares.
 
On September 18, 2008 Mortenson Financial Ltd. converted 1,000,000 common shares to 100,000 of preferred Series B Shares.

The Preferred Series B shares are non-voting.

100,000 shares of Preferred Series A shares were also issued to then management for compensation.  The Preferred Series A shares are voting at the ratio of 300 common shares per one share of preferred. On April 26, 2010, Richard D. Craven surrendered the 100,000 shares of Preferred Series A shares to the Company, after his resignation from his position with the Company and the preferred stock is now recorded as treasury stock until the company cancels the shares.

The Preferred Series B shares are convertible to common shares at a rate to be mutually agreed upon by the Company, Lacroix, and Mortensen.   However, documents provided by former management to the SEC establish that management of Lacroix and Mortensen had tentatively agreed to convert the preferred shares received from the note conversions into common shares at the rate of ten shares of common to one share of preferred.  Additionally, common shares were converted to preferred shares by Mortensen at a 10:1 ratio.  Conversion at the 10:1 rate would result in the issuance of 2,320,800 shares of common stock or 5.4% dilution as of June 30, 2010.  Conversion at an implied market rate ($.05 per share) would result in the issuance of approximately 4,641,600 shares of common stock or 10.3% dilution as of June 30 2010.

On July 9, 2009 the Company sold 25,000 units in a private placement for $25,000 at $1.00 per unit.  The Units are similar to a debenture and act as a debt to the company. The term is for three years, and the Units receive a return of a 30% annual stock dividend and no payments are paid for the reduction of this debt.  After the six month holding period the purchaser has the option to convert part or all of the Units into common stock at an exercise price of 5 cents per share, based on the principal invested.   The note is secured by the general assets of the company including the property at 128 Biodiesel Drive, Nettleton, MS.

For the above convertible notes, pursuant to ASC Topic 470, the Company first reviewed and determined that no beneficial conversion feature existed. The Company then evaluated the convertible notes to determine if there was an embedded conversion option requiring bifurcation under ASC Topic 815 and ASC Topic 815.40 and determined that bifurcation was not required.

NOTE 9 - INCOME TAXES

The Company adopted ASC Topic 740 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 are insignificant.

For income tax reporting purposes, the Company’s aggregate unused net operating losses approximate $14,950,332 which expire in various years through 2028, subject to limitations of Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code, as amended. The Company has provided a valuation reserve against the full amount of the net operating loss benefit, because in the opinion of management based upon the earning history of the Company, it is more likely than not that the benefits will not be realized.
 
Under the Tax Reform Act of 1986, the benefits from net operating losses carried forward may be impaired or limited on certain circumstances. Events which may cause limitations in the amount of net operating losses that the Company may utilize in any one year include, but are not limited to, a cumulative ownership change of more than 50% over a three-year period. The impact of any limitations that may be imposed for future issuances of equity securities, including issuances with respect to acquisitions have not been determined.

Management has recently become aware that cash and other assets invested in the Company prior to December 31, 2008 may have been received as a result of illegal activities by persons affiliated with certain current and former shareholders, Lacroix International Holdings Ltd. (Lacroix) and Mortensen Financial Ltd. (Mortensen).  See SEC vs. Abellan, et al, (Case 3:08-CV-05502).   Management has also recently become aware that the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has subsequently obtained an order of disgorgement pertaining to the assets held by Lacroix and Mortensen which currently include shares of preferred and common stock of the Company.
 
The risk of disgorgement

The approximate $1 million in cash invested in the Company by Mortensen has been depleted.  Additionally, the approximate $1.6 million value of the dormant biodiesel plant invested by Lacroix, with its unknown but implicit environmental liability, has been impaired to a net value of $290,000.  At the advice of counsel, management believes, lacking definitive proof, it is not likely that the SEC would move to disgorge ownership of the biodiesel plant from the Company.

According to the court filings in SEC vs. Abellan et al, the SEC was not able to obtain the Andorran banking records of Lacroix and Mortensen, and accordingly cannot currently definitively link the funds invested in the Company to the illegal activities of Abellan.  At the advice of counsel, management believes, while it is possible, it is unlikely, that even if the SEC is able to obtain those records, and is able to definitively link those funds to the assets invested in the Company that the SEC would move to disgorge ownership of the biodiesel plant from the Company.  In an attempt to obtain clarification of this, and to provide full and fair disclosure, management requested clarification from SEC staff, who declined to provide clarification or comment.

The risk of rescission

Management has also recently become aware that the stated September 17, 2008 restructuring of debt to preferred shares was transacted subsequent to a September 11, 2008 injunction obtained by the SEC freezing the assets of Lacroix and Mortensen.  The restructuring accordingly may constitute an illegal act.  Current and former management both assert that they did not receive notice of the freeze and were not aware of the freeze at the time of the conversion.

Current management has also recently become aware that former management was contacted by SEC enforcement pertaining to the above related to an informal investigation of another company.  It should be noted that the Company and its then management were not the focus of the informal investigation.  Documents provided by former management to the SEC establish that the discussions between former management, Lacroix and Mortensen began at least two months in advance of the freeze order.

As creditor note holders, Lacroix and Mortensen had preference over equity holders in the event of liquidation.   Additionally, even though the Lacroix note was “secured” by the biodiesel plant, no real or personal property liens were ever filed to perfect the liens.  At the time of the conversion the Company lacked liquidity to pay the principal and interest due on these notes.  The conversion to preferred shares abated the further accrual of interest on the notes.

As preferred shareholders, Lacroix and Mortensen still have preference over common shareholders in the event of liquidation, after satisfaction of the creditors.  While the conversion of these shares to common would eliminate this preference, it could also result in improving the liquidity of these shares, once the restrictive legends are removed, and enable distribution of the shares as discussed below.

At the advice of counsel, management believes it is possible, but unlikely that the SEC would move to rescind the note to preferred conversion transaction which would improve their standing in the event of liquidation, but would dilute the potential of liquidity through the market.  In an attempt to obtain clarification of this, and to provide full and fair disclosure, management requested clarification from SEC staff, who declined to provide clarification or comment.
 
The risk of dilution

As stated elsewhere, the preferred shares are convertible to common shares at a rate to be mutually agreed upon by the Company, Lacroix, and Mortensen.   However, documents provided by former management to the SEC establish that management of Lacroix and Mortensen had tentatively agreed to convert the preferred shares received from the note conversions into common shares at the rate of ten shares of common to one share of preferred with the final conversion rate to mutually agreed upon by both parties.  Additionally, common shares were converted to preferred shares by Mortensen at a 10:1 ratio.  Conversion at the 10:1 rate would result in the issuance of 2,320,800 shares of common stock or 5.4% dilution as of June 30, 2010.  Conversion at an implied market rate ($.05 per share) would result in the issuance of approximately 4,641,600 shares of common stock or 10.3% dilution as of June 30, 2010.

Current management has advised the stock transfer agent to freeze the preferred and common shares of Lacroix and Mortensen held in name or in street name, preventing their further conversion to cash.  The Board of Directors of the Company has also frozen the option to convert the preferred shares to common.  Counsel has advised management that such conversion of preferred shares to common could constitute a further violation of the asset freeze.  In an attempt to obtain clarification of this, and to provide full and fair disclosure, management requested clarification from SEC staff, who declined to provide clarification or comment.

In consideration of the above, management asserts that they will not convert the preferred shares to common without the explicit consent of the SEC.  Additionally, management is contemplating, under the authority of the SEC disgorgement order, seeking permission of the SEC to convert the preferred shares to common in the least dilutive fashion discussed above (10:1) and distribute those shares and other common shares owned by Lacroix and Mortensen to the shareholders harmed by Abellan.

The docket currently shows the status of the Abellan case as “terminated”, leaving Company counsel to believe that further action by the SEC against the Company is possible but unlikely.

Management will elect additional changes to revenue recognition to comply with the most conservative SEC recognition on a forward going accrual basis as the model is replicated with other similar markets (i.e. SBDC). The Company’s actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of certain factors, including those set forth therein.

Forward-looking statements involve risks, uncertainties and other factors, which may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Factors and risks that could affect our results and achievements and cause them to materially differ from those contained in the forward-looking statements include those identified in the section titled “Risk Factors” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009, as well as other factors that we are currently unable to identify or quantify, but that may exist in the future.
 
In addition, the foregoing factors may affect generally our business, results of operations and financial position. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date the statement was made. We do not undertake and specifically decline any obligation to update any forward-looking statements.
 
Overview of Our Company

We are an alternative energy company headquartered in Irvine, California. Our new strategic direction is to develop and market a diverse product line of alternative energy products including, natural gas, solar, biofuels, wind, wave, tidal, and green technology products.   We also intend to provide energy and facilities services to government and commercial customers for facilities retrofits, modifications, lighting systems, building control systems and related energy saving technologies.
 
23

 
We plan to continue our growth by means of mergers and acquisitions of other companies in the alternative energy and related industries, and to acquire patents and license technologies to fully exploit in the marketplace. We are adapting our business strategy to become a more vertically integrated company, to give us greater management control over our supply chain, from the producer, through marketing, distribution, and directly to the customer. We believe this will bring greater revenues for our company and more value to our shareholders.

We are currently targeting natural gas producers, to obtain natural gas and other fuels directly from the wellhead. We are also pursuing  solar energy companies for polymer based thin film solar cells that will produce greater energy conversion efficiencies, with less cost than silicon based photovoltaic cells.

Recent Developments

NDR Energy Group LLC.  As part plans for growth, on April 12, 2010, we acquired a 49% stake in NDR Energy Group LLC, located in Charlotte, North Carolina.
 
NDR markets energy and fuel commodities such as natural gas, and transportation of petroleum fuels. Natural gas is one of the cleanest burning fuels available, and is a very important segment of the U.S. economy. Based  on Management’s review of NDR’s financial records, NDR generated revenues  of  $25,182,463 in energy and fuel sales for the period of January 1, 2010 through June 30, 2010. These revenues have  been reviewed, however they have not yet been audited by the Company’s Auditors. The Company anticipates the formal audit of these financial records, to be completed soon, and the information will be reported and filed with the SEC.
 
The Company intends to expand the product offerings of NDR Energy Group to include biofuels, solar, alternative fuels, and commercial energy efficiency conversion projects, and retrofits.

NDR Energy currently has firm contracts signed with 22 major utility companies nationwide. Some of the customers it  has agreements with include, Southern California Gas Company, Pacific Gas & Electric, Baltimore Gas & Electric, Memphis Light Gas & Water, Duke (Ohio & Kentucky), Southern Company, Michigan Consolidated, Entergy (Texas and Gulf States),  and the National Grid, the largest power producer in New York State. Some of the suppliers it has contracts with are Chevron Texaco, Chesapeake Energy Marketing, Conoco Phillips, Total and Anadarko.

Our plans in coordination with NDR Energy Group are to maximize the sales value of our utility contracts. As part of our new business model, we believe, this acquisition should provide us  with distribution channels for marketing natural gas, biofuels, alternative fuels, solar, and green energy products to these and potential new customers.
 
Roblex Aviation, Inc. On January 6, 2010, we executed a Letter of Intent (“LOI”) with Roblex Aviation, Inc. (“Roblex”) of Carolina, Puerto Rico, upon which UBE would acquire all of Roblex. The terms and conditions of the acquisition are still being negotiated, and will be determined in the definitive agreement. No assurances can be provided that a definitive agreement will be executed. To date, the definitive agreement remains in negotiation stages.
 
Based  on our due diligence,  Roblex is a 13 year old air cargo company that has grown to be a noted leader in air cargo in the Puerto Rican and Caribbean Islands. It has principal routes to the Dominican Republic and US and British Virgin Islands with significant potential for growth and expansion. Roblex has over 40 employees and flies principally out of two locations, San Juan and Aguadilla, Puerto Rico. Roblex’s major clients include the United States Postal Service, Amerijet, and others as well as on-demand cargo services.
 
24

 
As indicated in our Form 8K filed on 1/25/2010, based on industry standards of valuation utilizing current average P/E ratios, as noted by Standard & Poor’s at a multiple of 15 - 17 times earnings, a valuation for the air cargo company of $17.25 million to $19.55 million dollars is a practical estimate of additional market value to Universal Bioenergy.

ICapital Finance Inc. On June 21, 2010, the Company signed an agreement to retain the services of iCapital Finance Inc., based in Irvine, California  iCapital is a financial services company, specializing in the Micro and Small Cap Public Companies and Middle Market Private Companies offering a wide range of financial advisory services, including; Mergers & Acquisitions, equity and debt financing, strategic advice, and financial consulting.  Its primary focus is in the  Technology,  Healthcare,  Media & Telecommunications and  Financial Services industries. iCapital has cultivated and maintains strong affiliations with top-tier firms including; GMAC, J.P Morgan, Greenwich Capital, and Prudential Securities.
 
iCapital will be providing their advisory services to Universal for  financial and strategic business consulting, asset  and technology purchases, and  assisting   the Company in its growth plans for  mergers and acquisition.  They will also  assist us in our  efforts to position the Company to qualify, and apply for listing on other  stock exchanges, which list similarly situated alternative energy technology companies.
 
Norcor Technologies Corporation.  On July 28, 2010,  we executed a Letter of Intent (“LOI”) with Norcor Technologies Corporation (“Norcor”), of Charlotte, North Carolina, upon which we will acquire a major stake in Norcor. The terms and conditions of the acquisition are being negotiated, and will be determined in the definitive agreement. No assurances can be provided that a definitive agreement will be executed.

 According to our Management,  Norcor  Technologies, provides a  broad range of products and services which are primarily for use in the Health Care industry, Military Facilities, and the U.S. Department of Transportation. Norcor’s primary focus is  selling  transportation fuels, biodiesel,  energy services, and facility energy efficiency retrofits. Norcor’s management  states that they are in discussions with the U.S. Military for a contract to provide several of their bases with approximately $49,000,000 in biodiesel and transportation fuels, over the next one to three years.  Management has been informed, they are also evaluating  the building of a new biodiesel fuel blending facility, a solar energy plant in the U.S. and have an interest in  natural gas wells in Oklahoma.

We intend to work with Norcor to further its business model and expansion plans in the fuel and energy services industry. Our management believes that Norcor will  us allow us to market biofuels, transportation fuels and energy services, to Norcor’s  customer base  and  marketing channels, as part of our new business focus. This major shift in strategy means that, by obtaining supplies of natural gas directly from the wellhead, Universal would become a supplier and would make significant more revenues and profits from higher margins.  The natural gas would  be marketed  by NDR Energy Group, to its customers. Based solely on our  initial due diligence, we believe that if the acquisition is completed, the  potential  profit  to be generated from this acquisition  is in the multi-million dollar range annually.

Gas Purchase Agreement with CenterPoint Energy Resources Corp. On August 11, 2010, NDR Energy Group, signed a Gas Purchase Agreement with  CenterPoint Energy Resources Corp., a wholly owned subsidiary of CenterPoint Energy Inc., based in Houston, Texas. CenterPoint Energy Inc., reported total  revenues of $8.2 Billion, including  $3.7 Billion for their National Gas Distributions operations, for the year ended December 31, 2009.
 
Under the terms of the agreement, NDR Energy Group will sell natural gas directly  to  CenterPoint Energy Resources Corp.  CenterPoint Energy Inc., (NYSE: CNP), based on their filings with the SEC,  is the nation’s third largest publicly traded  gas distribution company, with 3.2 million natural gas customers in six states, including Arkansas, Louisiana, Minnesota, Mississippi, Oklahoma, and Texas.
 
With the signing of the agreement, our company and NDR Energy will assist CenterPoint Energy Resources Corp., in providing clean and reliable natural gas to its 3.2 million residential, commercial and industrial customers. Management  believes, although we cannot guarantee, this transaction with CenterPoint Energy Resources Corp., should generate millions of dollars in additional  revenues, for the Company. Management also believes the transaction should have a significant impact on Universal’s market value and assets.

OTC Bulletin Board. On August 18, 2010, our common stock  was approved to   began  trading on the OTC Bulletin Board again. The OTC Bulletin Board® (OTCBB) is a regulated quotation service that displays real-time quotes, last-sale prices, and volume information in over-the-counter (OTC) equity securities.

The Company’s Future Plans and Outlook
 
Universal Gas Supply Division. As part of our plans for growth and expansion, we are proposing to  establish a new division, whereby we will be a “direct supplier” of   natural gas to our 22 current major utility  customers and our future customers. We will then be able to purchase the gas at  wholesale, or at “wellhead pricing”. Management believes that the major benefits to  our company are, greater revenues, significantly higher profit margins, lower product costs, increased assets, and increased competitiveness. This will also allow us to implement our business strategy to become a more  vertically integrated company, giving  us greater control over the  supply chain, directly from the producer, (with our company as the supplier), through marketing, distribution, and selling directly to the customer.  Our management is currently in discussions with several gas/oil production companies, to obtain agreements to purchase natural gas and other fuels directly from the wellhead,  to market directly to our customers. The gas would then be marketed and sold to our customers, through our subsidiary, NDR Energy Group.
 
According to the U.S. Energy Information Administration, (EIA) energy from natural gas accounts for 24 percent of total energy consumed in the United States, making it a vital component of the nation's energy supply. Additionally, the U.S. Energy Information Administration, in its Annual Energy Outlook 2009 Report, estimates that natural gas demand in the United States could be 24.36 Tcf, (Trillion Cubic Feet), by the year 2030. The EIA, Natural Gas Year-In Review 2009, Report stated,  Over the past several years, natural gas use for electric power has increased, with gas making up an increasing percentage share of total generation relative to coal. In 2009, natural gas made up almost 24 percent of net power generation with 931,000 Megawatt-hours (MWH) of electric power generated from natural gas. By comparison, in 1996, natural gas made up only 14 percent of power generation. Therefore, we feel this increase in future demand for natural gas should prove to be very favorable for our plans to sell gas to our customers as a “direct supplier”.
 
26

 
Universal Energy Services Division. As part of our plans for growth and expansion, we are proposing to  establish a new division, we provide energy and facilities services to our existing and growing customer base. The plan  would include marketing and implementing facilities  services, building modernization, energy system retrofits capital improvement projects, facilities systems, energy  supplies, energy management consulting  services, and / cost reduction strategies.  Potential customers would encompass Federal and State Departments and Agencies,  Cities, Municipalities, and  large commercial and industrial corporate clients.
 
Mergers & Acquistions. Management is planning for more aggressive growth and expansion, by additional  mergers and acquisitions, to generate  significant revenues and profits,  and by shifting our focus to invest in far  more profitable  alternative energy technologies. We anticipate, but can provide no assurances,   acquiring 5 to 10 additional new companies in the next   2 years. Some of the companies being targeted are, natural gas producers,  to obtain natural gas and other fuels directly from the wellhead, and solar energy companies for polymer based thin film solar cells, and other companies to build tidal energy facilities, acquisition of energy technology patents and licenses.
 
National Stock Exchange Listing. With its planned growth by mergers, acquisitions, and future revenues, Management is evaluating and  positioning the Company to potentially qualify, and apply to be listed on a major national stock exchange, which stock exchanges list similarly situated alternative energy technology companies, such as NASDAQ,  NYSE Amex Equities, or others.
 
Management has fully reviewed the qualifications for the relative national stock exchanges to determine which one we can best position the Company to qualify for, and apply to be listed. Therefore, on June 18, 2010 the Company approved amending the Articles of Incorporation to increase the amount of authorized shares of common stock from 200,000,000 to 1,000,000,000 shares with a par value of $.001. One of the qualifications requirements to be listed on most stock exchanges is a minimum bid price for  a company’s shares of stock. The minimum share bid price to  qualify for NASDAQ, is $4.00 per share, and for NYSE Amex, the minimum share price is $2.00 to $3.00 per share, depending on which initial listing standard a company may qualify for. For the Company to qualify for either of those to stock exchanges, our share price would have to increase to the $2.00 to $4.00 range. Management believes that, if we can  successfully position the Company to qualify to meet the listing requirements for one of the stock exchanges, it would greatly increase the market value of  the Company, and should  make it  attractive to more retail and institutional investors. We also feel this would be of great benefit to our shareholders.

Financial Analysis Summary and Projected Revenues and Earnings.

New Business Model. At our Strategic Business Summit in Las Vegas, in December 2009, we  announced  we were charting a bold new course to grow by mergers and acquisitions, and by shifting our  focus to invest in far  more profitable  alternative energy technologies. This will allow  us to drive our business forward this year to build solid revenue and profits.  We plan to continue our growth by means of mergers and acquisitions of other companies in the alternative energy and related industries, and to acquire patents and license technologies to fully exploit in the marketplace. We have adapted our business strategy to become a more vertically integrated company, to give us greater management control over our supply chain, from the producer, through marketing, distribution, and directly to the customer. We believe this will bring even greater revenues for our company and more value to our shareholders.
 
27

 
Market Expansion. Management believes that there are currently there  are 3240 utilities in the United States. Through NDR, we have firm contracts signed with 22 of these major utilities, and are in discussions with another 14 utility companies to obtain contracts from them also. Our plans are to develop an aggressive sales force, to obtain agreements with  a total of 100 utilities, and other customers including, Federal and State Departments and Agencies,  Cities, Municipalities, and  large commercial and industrial corporate clients, in the next 12 to 24 months. This will give us a much greater market share, more customers for our gas supply division, thereby further increasing our revenues and profits.

Analysis of Current Results of Operations. With the aggressive pursuit of producing revenues, current management has created significant value and generated  revenues  of $13,966,895, since the acquisition of NDR Energy on April 12, 2010, when previously there were no revenue generated in the prior 2 to 3 years. The high proportionate cost of sales relative to the gross revenues, reflected in this period, is due to purchasing the gas from some of the suppliers at  near retail cost, and additional high financing and factoring costs added to the gas by the suppliers. This has resulted in a reduced gross profit margin for this period, as reflected in the financial information section of this report. Management plans are  to reduce the purchasing cost of  the gas, and the financing cost, by obtaining our own  credit facility, and lines of credit. This will allow us to purchase the gas in larger quantities, with greater economies of scale, on better terms, at lower costs and reduce the high financing costs, thereby significantly   increasing our the gross profit. We have already submitted our documentation to several financial institutions and funding companies to obtain the credit facilities.

To provide us with even greater revenues and profit, our management is in discussions with several gas/oil production companies, to purchase natural gas and other fuels directly from the wellhead, at wholesale or “wellhead prices”  to market directly to our customers. Then our management believes, but cannot guarantee, we will be a supplier, thereby generating  greater revenues, significantly higher profit margins, lower product costs, increased assets, and increased competitiveness.

To collect on our accounts receivables, typically, after the gas is delivered from our supplier to our customer, an invoice is submitted to the customer between the  10th and 15th of the month. The  customer then, in accordance with our “Sale and Purchase Agreement”,  sends us full payment via wired funds by the 25th of the month,  or 10 –15 days after receipt of the invoice.

Our current “total assets” have increased by 976%, to $2,888,971 for the period ending  June 30, 2010, from $295,919 for the year ending  December 31 of 2009. Our current estimated book value per share based on our company’s stockholders equity of $2,888,871 is $0.064 per share.   We have also  reduced the net “losses from operations”, by 65%, to a net loss $219,402 for the period ending June 30, 2010, from $627,966 in the period ending June 30, 2009, a total  reduction of $408,564.  Based on our plans for growth and expansion, and increasing revenues through sales of natural and other products, we believe we will continue the trend to reduce our net losses down to zero, and then move our company toward solid profitability.
 
28

 
Analysis of Projected Revenue, Earnings and Market Value. The management of  our company has already acted in accordance with their new business strategy. As part of the execution of the plan, on April 12, 2010, we completed the  acquisition of NDR Energy Group, a marketer of natural gas and energy.  Based  on Management’s review of NDR’s financial records, NDR generated revenues  of  $25,182,463 in energy and fuel sales for the period of January 1, 2010 through June 30, 2010. Due to the acquisition, we has generated revenues of $13,966,895, from the close of the transaction through the end of June 30, 2010 although our cost of sales reduced our profit from these revenues to just over $15,000.  We anticipate the formal audit of these financial records, will be completed soon, and the information will be reported and filed with the SEC.

Management believes,  but cannot guarantee, that it can sell approximately1,136,000 MMBtus or  $5.21 million, in  natural gas  to each of its 22 customers on a monthly basis. This is based on the NYMEX Henry Hub July 2010 MTD, (month-to-date) average price, of $4.59 per MMBtu’s. This would result in a projected 25,000,000 MMBtus monthly or $114.8 million in monthly revenues from sales of gas to all of our 22 customers. The  objective would be to sell 300,000,000 MMBtus annually, resulting in a  projected $1.377 billion in revenues annually from the sales of natural gas alone. This would result in a conservatively projected net profit to the Company of $21 million or more annually, based on purchasing the gas from our current suppliers. Although no assurances of performance can be provided, we believe that when our company establishes it own gas supply division, then the estimated net earnings could  be in the range of $75 million annually or significantly higher.  Additionally, with the acquisition of another proposed 100 customers, this will result in even higher revenues and profits in the future.
 
Future Capital Funding. To ensure our ability to  develop a long term profitable  business,  Management is planning to raise additional funds  in   debt or equity capital to fund the growth of our company. We anticipate using the proceeds to purchase  some of the  companies we have targeted for future acquisitions, and some for working capital.  Management believes, although we cannot guarantee, that we should be successful in raising additional capital to fund the Company’s plans for growth and expansion.

On June 18, 2010 the Company approved amending the Articles of Incorporation to increase the amount of authorized shares of common stock from 200,000,000 to 1,000,000,000 shares with a par value of $.001.  The purpose of increasing the number of shares of common stock is to use them for business and financial purposes, including raising capital, for mergers and acquisitions, acquiring products or services in exchange for stock, attracting and retaining employees, increasing our shareholder base, and being able to respond rapidly to opportunities that arise in the marketplace.
 
29


 
The raising of  additional capital through the sale of equity may result in  a dilution of the current shareholders interests. However, management anticipates that the shareholders  would likely receive greater potential financial rewards by means of a significant increase  in the price of the stock, greater market value of the Company, and more liquidity.   Since Management has re-engineered the Company by creating more value to it, through its recent acquisitions, and is positioning it to qualify/apply to be listed on another stock exchange, we believe this should  make it  attractive to more retail and institutional investors. We feel this would be of great benefit to our shareholders.
 
History of Universal Bioenergy North America

Our subsidiary, Universal Bioenergy North America, Inc. is a Nevada corporation formed on January 23, 2007 which was acquired by our company in December 2007, for the purpose of operating a biodiesel plant in Nettleton, Mississippi to produce biodiesel fuel and a marketable byproduct of glycerin. The biodiesel plant was acquired by Universal Bioenergy North America out of a bankruptcy action. . As of the date of this report, we have not manufactured any biodiesel fuel but are negotiating with potential M&A candidates. Presently, UBNA’s plant is non-operational and the company is seeking new acquisitions in the alternative energy industry.
 
The economic viability of most biodiesel producers, including us, is dependent on the biodiesel fuel tax credit.  The tax credit was allowed to expire on December 31, 2009, causing widespread layoffs in the biodiesel industry since the credit is needed by most producers to remain economically viable.  The Senate voted on March 10, 2010 to restore the credit.  Restoration of the credit required reconciliation and signature of President Obama which did not occur before the August summer recess.
 
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

For the Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2010 compared to June 30, 2009
 
Universal Bioenergy Inc.

Analysis of Current Operations. Management has created significant value and generated  revenues  of $13,966,895, since the acquisition of NDR Energy on April 12, 2010, when previously there was none generated in the prior 2 to 3 years. The high proportionate cost of sales relative to the gross revenues, reflected in this period, is due to purchasing the gas from some of the suppliers at  near retail cost, and additional high financing and factoring costs added to the gas by the suppliers. This has resulted in a reduced gross profit margin for this period. Management plans are  to reduce the purchasing cost of  the gas, and the financing cost, by obtaining our own  credit facility, and lines of credit. This will allow us to purchase the gas in larger quantities, with greater economies of scale, on better terms, at lower costs and reduce the high financing costs, thereby significantly   increasing our the gross profit. We have already submitted our documentation to several financial institutions and funding companies to obtain the credit facilities.
 
Our general and administrative expenses increase to $470,568 and $474,486 for the three months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively as compared to $639,195 and $627,966 for the six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively. The primary reason for the increase in general and administrative expenses is that the company issued $395,569 in our common stock as compensation for services for the six months ended June 30, 2010.

We incurred losses of approximately $460,213 and $474,486 for the three months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009 as compared to $634,018 and $627,966 for the six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009. Our accumulated losses through June 30, 2010 amount to $15,390,667.
 
To provide us with even greater revenues and profit, the Company is in discussions with several gas/oil production companies, to purchase natural gas and other fuels directly from the wellhead, at wholesale or “wellhead prices”  to market directly to our customers. Then  the Company will be a supplier, thereby generating  greater revenues, significantly higher profit margins, lower product costs, increased assets, and increased competitiveness.

To collect on our accounts receivables, typically, after the gas is delivered from our supplier to our customer, an invoice is submitted to the customer between the  10th and 15th of the month. The  customer then, in accordance with our “Sale and Purchase Agreement”,  sends us full payment via wired funds by the 25th of the month,  or 10 –15 days after receipt of the invoice.

The Company’s current “total assets” have increased by 976%, to $2,888,971 for the period ending  June 30, 2010, from $295,919 for the year ending  December 31 of 2009. The Company’s current estimated book value per share based on the Company’s stockholders equity of $2,888,871 is $0.064 per share.   We have also  reduced the net “losses from operations”, by 65%, to a net loss $219,402 for the period ending June 30, 2010, from $627,966 in the period ending June 30, 2009, by a total  $408,564.  Based on our plans for growth and expansion, and increasing revenues through sales of natural and other products, we believe we will continue the trend to reduce the Company’s net losses down to zero, and then move the Company toward solid profitability.

Universal Bioenergy North America, Inc. (UBNA)

Universal Bioenergy North America, Inc., (UBNA) is a  operating subsidiary of the Company. The Company has generated no revenues  from the subsidiary, Universal Bioenergy North America, Inc., as the refinery was not in production as of June 30, 2010. UBNA  will continue to accrue some minimal operating losses until the refinery is operating, and at  a point where sufficient production levels can be reached to meet its relative  liabilities.

The cost of modifying our refinery is cost intensive as is merging or acquiring other business entities, so it is critical for us to raise appropriate capital to implement our business plan. We incurred losses of approximately $613,207 and $627,966 for the six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009. Our losses since our inception through June 30, 2010 amount to $15,390,667.

Part of these losses and need for impairment as determined by management is due in part to a decrease in value of assets related to the economic downturn in the local area and in the commercial real estate marketplace. Management believes that there has been a 30% or greater reduction in the value of real property at the Nettleton, MS plant site due to these conditions. There is no guarantee that such asset reduction will be recouped as economic conditions improve.
 
Liquidity and Capital Resources

As reflected in the accompanying financial statements and footnotes,  we are operating with limited resources, used cash in operations of $171,351 and $24,975 for the six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively. The ability of our company to continue as a going concern is dependent on the Company’s ability to raise additional capital and implement its business plan. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if we are unable to continue as a going concern.
 
Our cash provided by financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2010 was $173,903 as compared to $24,975 for the six months ended June 30, 2009. The primary increase in financing activities is related to the increase in advances from shareholders.

Debt

Convertible Debt

On July 9, 2009, we sold 25,000 units in a private placement for $25,000 at $1.00 per unit.  The Units are similar to a debenture and act as a debt to the company. The term is for three years, and the Units receive a return of a 30% annual stock dividend and no payments are paid for the reduction of this debt.  After the six month holding period the purchaser has the option to convert part or all of the Units into common stock at an exercise price of 5 cents per share, based on the principal invested.  The note is secured by the general assets of the company including the property at 128 Biodiesel Drive, Nettleton, MS.

We do not hold any derivative instruments that engage in any hedging activities. Most of our activity is in the resale of natural gas..

ITEM 4.  CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
 
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report were effective such that the information required to be disclosed by us in reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms and (ii) accumulated and communicated to the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding disclosure. A controls system cannot provide absolute assurance, however, that the objectives of the controls system are met, and no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within a company have been detected.
 
32


Our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act). Our internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their control objectives. Furthermore, smaller reporting companies face additional limitations. Smaller reporting companies employ fewer individuals and find it difficult to properly segregate duties. Often, one or two individuals control every aspect of the Company's operation and are in a position to override any system of internal control. Additionally, smaller reporting companies tend to utilize general accounting software packages that lack a rigorous set of software controls.

Our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer evaluated the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2010. In making this assessment, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control — Integrated Framework. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, concluded that, as of June 30, 2010, our internal control over financial reporting was effective.

b) Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting.

During the Quarter ended June 30, 2010, there was no change in our internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

The Company’s concern was the filing of our 2007 Form 10K/A on September 9, 2009 by James Michael Ator the former CFO, without Board of Directors approval and without approval from our independent auditors. The other area of concern was the proper internal signature by the Board of Directors for all filings that are issued. The Company’s former management further did not properly record the acquisition of UBNA as the purchase method of accounting and recorded it as a reverse merger and recapitalization. The acquisition was less than 51% and should have been recorded as the purchase method of accounting.

The Company’s Richard Craven the former CEO was also involved with the Mortenson and LaCroix transactions as described in Note 12 to the financial statements. Although former management asserts they had no knowledge of the Abellan scheme or the freeze order, in the best interest of the Company they resigned, surrendered the preferred A shares, and have no further affiliation with the Company.  Due to the size of our Company and the costs associated to remediate these issues, we still consider these concerns to be extremely relevant.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION
 
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

There is no action, suit, proceeding, inquiry or investigation before or by any court, public board, government agency, self-regulatory organization or body pending or, to the knowledge of the executive officers of our company or any of our subsidiaries, threatened against or affecting our company, our common stock, any of our subsidiaries or of our companies or our subsidiaries' officers or directors in their capacities as such, in which an adverse decision could have a material adverse effect.

ITEM 1A - Risk Factors

Risk Factors
 
You should carefully consider the following risk factors together with the other information contained in this Interim Report on Form 10-Q, and in prior reports pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended and the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.  If any of the risks factors actually occur, our business, financial condition or results of operations could be materially adversely affected. In such cases, the trading price of our common stock could decline. We believe there are no changes that constitute material changes from the risk factors previously disclosed in the prior reports pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended and the Securities Act of 1933 and include or reiterate the following risk factors:
 
Risk Factors Related to Our Business

We May Not Have Access To Sufficient Capital To Pursue Our Business And Therefore Would Be Unable To Achieve Our Planned Future Growth.
 
We intend to pursue a growth strategy that includes development of the Company business and technology.  Currently we have limited capital which is insufficient to pursue our plans for development and growth.  Our ability to implement our growth plans will depend primarily on our ability to obtain additional private or public equity or debt financing.  We are currently seeking additional capital.  Such financing may not be available at all, or we may be unable to locate and secure additional capital on terms and conditions that are acceptable to us.  Our failure to obtain additional capital will have a material adverse effect on our business.
 
34


We may be adversely affected by environmental, health and safety laws, regulations and liabilities.

 As we pursue our business plan, we will become subject to various federal, state and local environmental laws and regulations, including those relating to the discharge of materials into the air, water and ground, the generation, storage, handling, use, transportation and disposal of hazardous materials, and the health and safety of our employees. In addition, some of these laws and regulations require our suppliers and our contemplated distribution facilities to operate under permits that are subject to renewal or modification. These laws, regulations and permits can often require expensive pollution control equipment or operational changes to limit actual or potential impacts to the environment. A violation of these laws and regulations or permit conditions can have a material adverse effect on our business.

Risk Factors Related to Our Stock

Because We Are Quoted On The OTCBB “Pink Sheets” Instead Of An Exchange Or National Quotation System, Our Investors May Have A Tougher Time Selling Their Stock Or Experience Negative Volatility On The Market Price Of Our Stock.
 
Our common stock is traded on the OTCBB “Pink Sheets”. The OTCBB “Pink Sheets” is often highly illiquid, in part because it does not have a national quotation system by which potential investors can follow the market price of shares except through information received and generated by a limited number of broker-dealers that make markets in particular stocks. There is a greater chance of volatility for securities that trade on the OTCBB “Pink Sheetsas compared to a national exchange or quotation system. This volatility may be caused by a variety of factors, including the lack of readily available price quotations, the absence of consistent administrative supervision of bid and ask quotations, lower trading volume, and market conditions. Investors in our common stock may experience high fluctuations in the market price and volume of the trading market for our securities. These fluctuations, when they occur, have a negative effect on the market price for our securities. Accordingly, our stockholders may not be able to realize a fair price from their shares when they determine to sell them or may have to hold them for a substantial period of time until the market for our common stock improves.

Our Common Stock Is Subject To Penny Stock Regulation

Our shares are subject to the provisions of Section 15(g) and Rule 15g-9 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), commonly referred to as the "penny stock" rule. Section 15(g) sets forth certain requirements for transactions in penny stocks and Rule 15g-9(d)(1) incorporates the definition of penny stock as that used in Rule 3a51-1 of the Exchange Act. The Commission generally defines penny stock to be any equity security that has a market price less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions. Rule 3a51-1 provides that any equity security is considered to be penny stock unless that security is: registered and traded on a national securities exchange meeting specified criteria set by the Commission; authorized for quotation on the NASDAQ Stock Market; issued by a registered investment company; excluded from the definition on the basis of price (at least $5.00 per share) or the registrant's net tangible assets; or exempted from the definition by the Commission. Since our shares are deemed to be "penny stock", trading in the shares will be subject to additional sales practice requirements on broker/dealers who sell penny stock to persons other than established customers and accredited investors.
 
35


FINRA Sales Practice Requirements May Also Limit A Stockholder's Ability To Buy And Sell Our Stock.
In addition to the “penny stock” rules described above, the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA) has adopted rules that require that in recommending an investment to a customer, a broker-dealer must have reasonable grounds for believing that the investment is suitable for that customer. Prior to recommending speculative low priced securities to their non-institutional customers, broker-dealers must make reasonable efforts to obtain information about the customer's financial status, tax status, investment objectives and other information. Under interpretations of these rules, FINRA believes that there is a high probability that speculative low priced securities will not be suitable for at least some customers. FINRA requirements make it more difficult for broker-dealers to recommend that their customers buy our common stock, which may limit your ability to buy and sell our stock and have an adverse effect on the market for our shares.

We May Not Have Access To Sufficient Capital To Pursue Our Business And Therefore Would Be Unable To Achieve Our Planned Future Growth.
 
We intend to pursue a growth strategy that includes development of the Company business and technology.  Currently we have limited capital which is insufficient to pursue our plans for development and growth.  Our ability to implement our growth plans will depend primarily on our ability to obtain additional private or public equity or debt financing.  We are currently seeking additional capital.  Such financing may not be available at all, or we may be unable to locate and secure additional capital on terms and conditions that are acceptable to us.  Our failure to obtain additional capital will have a material adverse effect on our business.

Nevada  Law And Our Articles Of Incorporation Protect Our Directors From Certain Types Of Lawsuits, Which Could Make It Difficult For Us To Recover Damages From Them In The Event Of A Lawsuit.
 
Nevada law provides that our directors will not be liable to our company or to our stockholders for monetary damages for all but certain types of conduct as directors. Our Articles of Incorporation require us to indemnify our directors and officers against all damages incurred in connection with our business to the fullest extent provided or allowed by law. The exculpation provisions may have the effect of preventing stockholders from recovering damages against our directors caused by their negligence, poor judgment or other circumstances. The indemnification provisions may require our company to use our assets to defend our directors and officers against claims, including claims arising out of their negligence, poor judgment, or other circumstances.
 
The Notes to Our Financial Statements Contain Explanatory Language That Some Doubt Exists About Our Ability To Continue As A Going Concern

Our financial statements contain explanatory language that some doubt exists about our ability to continue as a going concern. The notes discloses that we are in the development stage with limited resources, used cash in operations of $872,570 from inception, and have an accumulated deficit of $15,647,224. This raises substantial doubt about our 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 its business plan. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if we are unable to continue as a going concern.
 
36

 
The failure to raise additional capital and implement its business plan could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations. If we are unable to obtain sufficient financing in the near term or achieve profitability, then we would, in all likelihood, experience severe liquidity problems and may have to curtail our operations. If we curtail our operations, we may be placed into bankruptcy or undergo liquidation, the result of which will adversely affect the value of our common shares.
 
We Do Not Intend To Pay Dividends
 
We do not anticipate paying cash dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future. We may not have sufficient funds to legally pay dividends. Even if funds are legally available to pay dividends, we may nevertheless decide in our sole discretion not to pay dividends. The declaration, payment and amount of any future dividends will be made at the discretion of the board of directors, and will depend upon, among other things, the results of our operations, cash flows and financial condition, operating and capital requirements, and other factors our board of directors may consider relevant. There is no assurance that we will pay any dividends in the future, and, if dividends are rapid, there is no assurance with respect to the amount of any such dividend.

Compliance with changing regulation of corporate governance and public disclosure will result in additional expenses and pose challenges for our management team.
 
Changing laws, regulations and standards relating to corporate governance and public disclosure, including the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and SEC regulations, have created uncertainty for public companies and significantly increased the costs and risks associated with accessing the U.S. public markets. Our management team will need to devote significant time and financial resources to comply with both existing and evolving standards for public companies, which will lead to increased general and administrative expenses and a diversion of management time and attention from revenue generating activities to compliance activities.

SHOULD ONE OR MORE OF THE FOREGOING RISKS OR UNCERTAINTIES MATERIALIZE, OR SHOULD THE UNDERLYING ASSUMPTIONS PROVE INCORRECT, ACTUAL RESULTS MAY DIFFER SIGNIFICANTLY FROM THOSE ANTICIPATED, BELIEVED, ESTIMATED, EXPECTED, INTENDED OR PLANNED.

ITEM 2.  UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS

There were no sales of unregistered upon senior securities during the period ended June 30, 2010. Except for the Company issued 5,000,000 shares of common stock for the NDR acquisition, 750,000 shares of common stock to its prior CFO for extinguishment of his employment contract and Company issued 300,000 shares of common stock to a consultant and expensed $18,000.  The offer and sale of such shares of our common stock were effected in reliance on the exemptions for sales of securities not involving a public offering, as set forth in Rule 506 promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933 (the “Securities Act”) and in Section 4(2) of the Securities Act, based on the following: (a) the investors confirmed to us that they were “accredited investors,” as defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act and had such background, education and experience in financial and business matters as to be able to evaluate the merits and risks of an investment in the securities; (b) there was no public offering or general solicitation with respect to the offering; (c) the investors were provided with certain disclosure materials and all other information requested with respect to our company; (d) the investors acknowledged that all securities being purchased were “restricted securities” for purposes of the Securities Act, and agreed to transfer such securities only in a transaction registered under the Securities Act or exempt from registration under the Securities Act; and (e) a legend was placed on the certificates representing each such security stating that it was restricted and could only be transferred if subsequent registered under the Securities Act or transferred in a transaction exempt from registration under the Securities Act.
