PART I
ITEM 1. BUSINESS.
BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT
CORPORATE BACKGROUND
We were incorporated in the state of Nevada on February 26, 2009, under the
name "Ciralight West, Inc." On March 13, 2009, we changed our name to Ciralight
Global, Inc. As a result of the acquisition described below, we are a
manufacturer and wholesaler of "advanced skylights" for use in warehouses,
schools, retail stores, airports and military installations.
Prior to our incorporation, there existed a company named "Ciralight, Inc."
(referred to herein as "Old Ciralight") that was in the advanced skylights
business. By the end of 2008, Old Ciralight was in dire financial straits and
was having difficulty retaining staff, making sales, paying for component parts
and other trade payables, paying its office and warehouse rents and servicing
its heavy debt load. In January 2009, several officers and directors resigned
from Old Ciralight and many of its employees either left the company or were
laid off.
On January 27, 2009, Old Ciralight granted Mr. George Adams, Sr., its only
secured creditor, the right to (i) manufacture the Old Ciralight product on an
exclusive basis and unconditionally and (ii) market and sell its product, and
agreed to ship all of its inventory to a facility owned or controlled by Mr.
Adams in Anaheim, California. For all intents and purposes, Old Ciralight ceased
its operations on January 27, 2009.
The only revenue recognized by Old Ciralight during the quarter ended March
31, 2009, resulted from sales orders for Suntracker products received in 2008
for inventory items that were in inventory at December 31, 2008 and shipped
during January 2009. After January 27, 2009, no meaningful or material business
activities occurred in Old Ciralight For a few weeks thereafter, the Old
Ciralight's staff was reduced to two people who were charged with sorting out
the debts and winding down the business.
Mr. Adams began working with the people who would become the management and
principals of Ciralight Global, Inc. during February 2009 and such management
incorporated Ciralight Global, Inc. on February 26, 2009. The original plan
between Mr. Adams and Ciralight Global, Inc. was for Ciralight Global, Inc. to
handle sales, manufacturing, marketing and fulfillment of Ciralight products on
behalf of Mr. Adams. So, Ciralight Global, Inc. immediately began manufacturing
the Suntracker One(TM) products, leased warehouse space, negotiated with
suppliers for component parts, agreed to repair or replace defective products
that had been previously sold by Old Ciralight and installed by Old Ciralight's
dealers and contractors.
On March 15, 2009, Mr. Adams formally foreclosed on all of the assets of
Old Ciralight. By the end of March 2009, Mr. Adams and Ciralight Global, Inc.'s
management began negotiations pursuant to which Ciralight Global, Inc. would
purchase all of the foreclosed assets from Mr. Adams.
In April 2009, we entered into an Exchange of Stock for Assets Agreement
with Mr. George Adams, Sr. ("Adams Agreement") to acquire certain assets
including, but not limited to, a United States patent, patent applications
pending in Canada, Europe, Mexico and the United States, artwork, trademarks,
equipment, furniture, databases, technical drawings, promotional materials,
4
trade names and inventory parts and marketing rights related to the Suntracker
One(TM) and Suntracker Two(TM) products previously owned and distributed by
Ciralight, Inc., a Utah corporation, such assets having been foreclosed on by
Mr. Adams, who was the secured creditor of Old Ciralight. We have no
affiliation, contractual or otherwise, with Old Ciralight.
In April 2009, we acquired all of the above described assets from Mr.
Adams, except for the United States patent and the patent applications pending
in Canada, Europe, Mexico and the United States, in exchange for 3,200,000
shares of our common stock and 1,000,000 shares of our Series A Preferred Stock.
In December 2009, we acquired the United States patent and the patent
applications pending in Canada, Europe, Mexico and the United States from Mr.
Adams in exchange for the issuance by us of an additional 400,000 shares of our
common stock and a convertible promissory note in the amount of $250,000. The
note was convertible into shares of our common stock at a conversion rate of one
share per $.25 of outstanding principal and interest. Mr. Adams has subsequently
converted the note into common stock. As a result of this transaction, Mr. Adams
is our largest shareholder.
The Adams Agreement also granted Mr. Adams a royalty fee of $20.00 for each
Suntracker One(TM) and Suntracker Two(TM) unit or any future units that are
based on the patent rights we acquired from him. The maximum royalty fees
payable under the Adams Agreement is $2,000,000 based on the sale of 100,000
units.
Since we acquired the assets from Mr. Adams, we have worked diligently to
improve our brand image and the reputation of our Company and have been very
mindful of the potential impact that the defunct Ciralight, Inc. and Mr. Adams'
foreclosed on it assets could have or has had on the Company. We have worked
very hard to improve the SunTracker One(TM) and SunTracker Two(TM) products by
making them more reliable, more functional and more acceptable to dealers,
distributors and customers. We have developed excellent relationships with our
suppliers and we reached out to the customers who bought skylights from
Ciralight, Inc. (Old Ciralight) that may have malfunctioned and have replaced
parts and components as necessary by allowing such customers to buy replacement
parts and components at our cost. This program of reaching out to those
customers has reaped rewards for the Company as we are now receiving new orders
from some of Old Ciralight's customers. We do not believe that the fact that Old
Ciralight is defunct and has had its assets acquired by its creditors has had
any material impact on us due to our proactive engagement with our suppliers,
some of whom were creditors of Old Ciralight.
WHAT IS OUR BUSINESS?
Our core business is to manufacture for sale advanced skylights known as
"Smart SkylightsTM" that provide energy saving-low carbon (co2) and high
performance daylighting to buildings. We are an American company in the green
building products industry.
Our Smart Skylights(TM) use sun-tracking GPS technology attached to mirrors
under the dome that track the sun throughout the day and bring high levels of
diffused natural light into buildings. Energy saving Smart Skylights(TM) allow
businesses, governments and schools to efficiently capture sunlight from a
perpetual and free source of light and energy - the Sun, to illuminate their
buildings through the practice known as Daylighting.
Using Sun-tracking technology allows our skylights to illuminate buildings
for longer hours than traditional skylights. Smart Skylights(TM) provide the
illumination of a 1,000 watt metal halide light fixture; however, Smart
Skylights(TM) are entirely Solar Powered so they do not require any electricity
or electrical hookup. Smart Skylights(TM) are designed with two heat traps so
they prevent the heat gain associated with traditional skylights.
The result is a bright, healthy natural light to building interiors, just
as nature intended allowing users to shut off their electrical lights during day
time hours for up to 10.5 hours a day. This results in a significant reduction
in energy use and increased cost savings.
5
WHAT IS DAYLIGHTING?
Daylighting is the practice of using natural light to illuminate building
space. Using natural light from the sun to illuminate buildings costs nothing
and the result is a compelling, efficient lighting solution that protects the
environment. By consuming less energy, daylit buildings reduce fossil fuel use
and carbon dioxide emissions associated with global warming and climate change.
In addition to the energy savings resulting from the use of daylighting,
studies show that people thrive in naturally lit environments. Studies show that
shoppers linger longer and buy more in stores that use daylighting. Sales in day
lit stores are on average six percent higher and as high as 40% more than stores
without daylighting. In addition, students learn better in daylight classrooms.
Students in classrooms with advanced daylighting performed 20% higher on test
scores than students in classrooms without daylighting. In the workplace,
business that use daylighting find that workers are more productive, with less
absenteeism, less turnover and higher moral among employees.
The U.S. Department of Energy statistics show that 29% of energy use in
commercial buildings is for lighting. This amount is 40% to 50% in schools. The
Department of Energy projects that electricity consumption between 2010 and 2030
will grow from 14.85 quadrillion BTUs to 20.30 quadrillion BTUs. And despite all
the discussion and focus on renewable energy programs, the Department of Energy
projects consumption of renewable energy will grow from .16 quadrillion BTUs to
only .17 quadrillion BTUs. Therefore, unless there is a significant change in
direction, consumption and dependence on electricity will continue to grow and
this is expected to significantly increase electrical utility costs for
consumers, schools and businesses.
The use of daylighting by consumers, schools and businesses is a way to
decrease their use of electricity and to protect them from rising electricity
costs. According to the Sustainable Building Technical Manual, chapter IV.7,
page 90, a well-designed daylit building is estimated to reduce lighting energy
use from 50% to as much as 80%.
Day lit buildings make a statement about their owners and occupants; they
are socially and fiscally responsible.
ADVANTAGES OF CIRALIGHT SMART SKYLIGHTS(TM)
1. Save Energy by shutting of electric lights during daytime hours.
2. Save on Air-Conditioning costs by reducing need to run
Air-Conditioning to offset heat generated from Electric light fixtures
or standard skylights
3. Save on maintenance costs associated with Electric lights.
4. Reduce energy usage during peak hours when rates are higher.
5. Receive certain Federal, State & Local Tax benefits & Utility
incentives as a Green Energy product.
WHAT ARE "ADVANCED SKYLIGHTS?"
Standard skylights are typically either shaped plastic skylights or flat
glass skylights that are open below and provide direct sunlight into the
building space. Standard skylights typically provide the most light when the sun
is high in the sky but ineffective when the sun is low in the sky, such as in
the morning or late afternoon hours. Standard skylights provide uneven light
that varies throughout the day depending on the sun's angle and direct sunlight
creates glare and heat for the occupants. Standard skylights provide usable
light for a limited number of hours a day and, therefore, provide only limited
energy savings.
Advanced skylights are defined as skylights incorporating technology which
enables optical redirection of sunlight into a building. Advanced skylights use
either "active" or "passive" technology. An advanced skylight with active
technology employs the use of moving parts such as rotating mirrors inside the
skylight dome, while advanced skylights with passive technology have no moving
parts and use prismatic materials incorporated into the skylight dome surface.
Active advanced skylights claim better overall daylighting performance by
increasing the number of daylight hours available by tracking and re-directing
the sunlight into buildings even at the extremes of the day when the sun is low
on the horizon. Passive advanced skylights are not able to capture the sunlight
during the extreme hours of the day when the sun is low in the sky.
6
OUR PRODUCTS AND TECHNOLOGY
Our Ciralight Smart Skylights(TM) are classified as Active Advanced
Skylights. Our products are an energy saving, cost saving lighting solution. We
are a Green Product Company.
After securing the technology of the Suntracker One(TM) and Suntracker
Two(TM) skylights, from Old Ciralight, we made significant improvements to these
Active Advanced Skylights that improve their quality, durability and
functionality. We are now marketing our advanced daylighting system under the
brand name of "Smart Skylight(TM)." Our improved design Smart skylight systems
have successfully passed life cycle test wherein they were subjected to harsh
weather conditions in an environmental chamber for a period equivalent to 30
years. The tests showed that our Smart Skylights have a 30 year life expectancy.
As an active and advanced skylight that is solar powered, our skylights
entitle users to certain tax benefits and utility company incentives that are
not available to passive skylights. This provides us with a competitive
advantage. Smart Skylights(TM) are completely solar powered and while they are
powered by only a 5 watt solar panel, they provide the illumination of a 1,000
watt metal halide light fixture.
Currently our Smart Skylights are offered in the size of 4ft x 4 ft. We
have released a 4ft x 8ft version of Smart Skylights(TM) that we believe will be
popular for retrofitting existing warehouses and commercial buildings. Property
owners are able to replace their existing traditional less efficient skylights
with our 4ft x 8ft Smart Skylight(TM) for minimal cost as a means to make their
facilities more energy efficient and reduce their energy costs. During 2011, it
is our intention to release a 2ft by 2ft version of our Smart Skylight(TM) for
use in homes. We believe these will be very popular with homeowners as an energy
saving, renewable lighting solution. These will be also suitable for school
classrooms, dorm rooms, military barracks and hospitals.
We believe our Smart Skylight(TM) product is unique in the following ways:
* GPS Controller - Each Smart SkylightTM unit includes a fully
self-contained solar powered Global Positioning System ("GPS")
controller that tracks the position of the sun and insures maximum
light throughout the daytime hours. The use of the GPS Controller and
mirrors provide up to three times more light than the light from
standard skylights and allows users to turn off their electrical
lights for up to 10 hours a day.
* Light Diffusion and Thermal Barrier - Each unit includes (i) two
state-of-the-art prismatic lens that transform the sunlight into high
levels of evenly dispersed and diffused natural light, creating a
clean, pleasant, abundant natural light that is easier on the eyes,
and (ii) a dual panel thermal barrier that prevents the typical heat
gain associated with standard skylights from entering into the lighted
space resulting in less than one-half the heat of a common fluorescent
light fixture. This provides additional savings by reducing the need
to run air-conditioning to off-set the heat caused by standard
skylights and heat generating light fixtures that with the use of
Smart Skylights are turned off during the daytime.
* Solar Powered - Each Smart Skylight(TM) is entirely solar powered.
There is no electrical hookup required. The system is designed to
store the solar energy created from the solar panel to run the Smart
Skylight(TM) even if the sun is not out.
* Mirror Array - Each unit contains either a dynamic single or triple
mirror tracking array. The mirrors continuously track the sun across
the sky even during winter's low sun angles and provide an abundant
source of free light with no flickering or humming of electricity. The
mirror array and GPS controller create a solar array that directs the
sunlight through two special diffuser lenses and through the lightwell
that directs the resulting light from the roof level into the building
space.
* Acrylic Super-Impact Skylight Dome - Each Smart Skylight(TM) features
a clear, thermally formed, high impact resistant acrylic dome that
provides superior strength and UV resistance and is easy to install.
7
In addition, our Smart Skylight(TM) products provide natural daylighting
that is a key consideration when building to United States Green Building
Council ("USGBC") standards and for receiving Leadership in Energy and
Environmental Design ("LEED") certification. Our Smart Skylights(TM) are Energy
Star Products. Smart Skylights(TM) are maintenance free, energy saving, powered
by the sun and completely self-contained.
Ciralight Smart SkylightsTM are sold with a ten year warranty.
A summary of the advantages of Smart Skylights(TM) includes the following:
* More daylight when the sun is low in the sky.
* Daylight levels that allow users to turn lights off for longer hours
of the day.
* Provides high levels of illumination, more evenly distributed than
standard skylights.
* Do not create the heat gain associated with normal skylights.
* Provides better color rendition than electric lights.
* Absence of flicker and hum associated with electric lights.
* Natural light provides a more productive work environment
* Improved student performance.
* Increased sales in retail environments.
* Reduced operating expenses.
* Solar powered, entitling users to tax and utility incentives.
* Provides a bright, abundant, quiet, healthy natural light, just as
nature intended for up to 10 hours a day.
MANUFACTURING
At the present time, we contract with manufacturers who have expertise in a
particular industry to produce the components of our Smart Skylight(TM)
products. All manufacturing is done by companies in the United States and our
products are made in the United States. We have an excellent relationship with
all our manufactures. We purchase components from our manufacturers by issuing
purchase orders. The terms of these purchase orders are typically Net 30 days,
although we have elected to pay for our purchases at the time of delivery.
Therefore, we have fully paid for our entire inventory of components at our
Corona, California warehouse. The terms of our purchase orders with our
manufacturers are F.O.B. origin. Therefore, as the purchaser of these component
parts, we are responsible for the cost of shipping our components from a
manufacturer's location to our warehouse in Corona, California where all our
components are stored. As customers purchase our products, the components are
picked and kitted at our Warehouse for shipment to the project job site. The
assembly and installation of the Smart SkylightsTM occurs at the jobsite and is
handled by our dealers or distributors and their subcontractors. We have no role
or responsibility with respect to the installation or assembly of our products.
Our manufacturers were chosen based on two critical factors: (1) the level
of quality control programs they have in place at their facilities and (2) their
ability to handle large volumes for producing our component parts. All of our
manufacturers and suppliers are standard fabrication and assembly companies
capable of meeting large volume product demands and, therefore, have excess
capacity to handle significant increases in our sales. Although we are dependent
on our manufacturers and suppliers, we have alternative firms who could provide
the same production to us on short notice.

MARKETS AND MARKETING
We are currently marketing our Smart Skylight(TM) products to Architects,
Roofing and General Contractors, Lighting Companies, Solar Companies, Retail
Chains, industrial and commercial property owners and managers. Our target
properties are warehouses, industrial buildings, retail stores, public
facilities, schools and military facilities within the United States. We are
working on establishing sales in Canada, Mexico, Europe and in other overseas
markets.
Our marketing efforts will be directed to create greater awareness of our
products in the market place as an innovative, energy saving solution for
lighting in the building industry. Our marketing will be geared toward new
construction and retrofitting existing buildings.
The market for advanced skylights is growing year over year due to
pressures on building owners, tenants, schools and government agencies to reduce
energy consumption and save on utility costs. There has been much attention
within the current President's administration on the need to focus the country's
energy policy on innovative green products that will reduce the demand for
energy, decrease the carbon footprint and create new jobs. Our Smart
Skylights(TM) are a truly break-through energy saving product that can help meet
all of these objectives - transform the United States away from fossil fuels to
renewable and job creating green businesses.
This movement toward "green" energy solutions and the pressure to reduce
the carbon footprint, as well as other environmental initiatives, will continue
to spur the growth in this market segment and the need for solutions like our
Smart Skylights(TM).
We currently sell our products through a network of dealers and
distributors. Dealers and Distributors are typically companies that are already
in the lighting, roofing or renewable energy business. Dealers buy our products
at an established dealer price and resell the product to end users at the
suggested retail price. Distributors are typically identified for foreign
countries where they are responsible for purchasing, housing and supplying our
products to a network of Dealers they are required to establish within their
appointed territories.
DEALER AGREEMENTS:
Our dealer agreements are non-exclusive as no single dealer has been
awarded the exclusive right to market and sell our products within any
geographical area. Our dealer agreements typically have an initial term of three
years with options to renew for additional one year periods, provided that the
dealers have complied with the terms and conditions of their dealer agreements.
Our dealers purchase our skylights at our Dealer Price Level and they are
encouraged to sell our skylights at our suggested retail price. However, our
dealers may sell our skylights at any price they wish. We require our dealers to
make a 50% deposit at the time they place an order with the balance of 50%
payable upon delivery F.O.B. our Corona warehouse. We may grant better payment
terms to dealers who have good payment histories with us, in which case we may
grant them Net 21 Day or Net 30 Day terms. Since we ship our skylights F.O.B.
our Corona warehouse, our dealers or customers bear the cost of shipping and
bear the risk of any loss or damage from shipping.

our domestic and international distributors are the same as our terms with our
dealers. Our international distributors are responsible for all costs associated
with clearing customs and any tariffs. We encourage our international
distributors to recruit dealers within their territories to sell our skylights.
10
Currently, we have the following distributors:
Ciralight Europe (29 European Union Countries)
RSB Construction LTD. (Turkey)
ZEEV Shimon & Sons, Ltd. (Israel)
In addition, we currently have interest from companies wishing to become
Dealers or Distributors in Australia, Brazil, Canada, Chili, Germany, Greece,
Italy, Indonesia, Japan, Poland and Romania. We are at various stages of
discussions and negotiations with these companies and we have not yet reached
any definitive terms with any one of these companies.
After securing the technology rights to the Suntracker(TM) products from
old Ciralight, we elected to undertake a process of reviewing and enhancing the
design to take it from good quality to industrial grade quality. This process
included an improved design of numerous components including the GPS Controller,
the post system, the mirror assembly and consolidating the mid-tray frame and
dome frame into one frame. At that time, we elected to remove the product from
the market until all the improvements were completed.
In December 2009, the improved design was completed and the product passed
a 30 year life cycle test under extreme environmental conditions. This
demonstrated the Smart Skylights(TM) to be robust and durable. The Smart
Skylights(TM) have since been certified to comply with the American Architecture
and Manufacturers Association Certification standards for Skylights. Since the
release of the improved design, the reliability of the product shipped has been
over 99.99%.
We intend to increase our marketing efforts in the next few months and this
includes recruiting more dealers and distributors and promoting our products
through public relations, as well as through direct advertising. Our advertising
campaign will be focused on creating consumer awareness of our products and the
benefits users of our products will realize through energy and cost savings. Our
marketing campaign will include attending industry related business conventions
and trade shows, advertising in industry related publications, and directly
contacting building industry professionals, property owners and green industry
businesses. We are members of the United States Green Building Council (USGBC)
and the Daylighting Collaborative. We are also a U.S. Department of Energy,
Energy Star Partner. We intend to be very active in "green" initiatives on both
local and national levels.
We intend to fund our marketing campaign from our working capital and the
proceeds of a private equity offering.
Our skylights have been installed at two Ace Hardware Stores, two Office
Depot stores, two IKEA stores, one in Canada and one in the United States and we
doing an installation at our fifth Whole Foods store. We recently installed our
first units at a Fresh and Easy store. We have completed five Giant Food Stores.
The Patagonia installation was at their main facility and included nearly 200
skylight stores. In December 2009, Boeing installed 26 units as a test of our
products and they have advised us that they are very pleased with the results.
Johnson & Johnson installed 66 units at their facility in Mexico. Phoenix Sky
Harbor Airport installed 12 units in their Terminal 3. We have sold four of our
skylights to Supply Core, a defense contractor, for installation on a U.S. Navy
Base in Japan.
We recently received approval from the Los Angeles Unified School District
as well as the Los Angeles Community College District to complete pilot test
projects using our Smart Skylights at their facilities. In addition, the US Navy
has indicated a strong interest in our Smart Skylights as an energy saving
lighting solution for their facilities.
We are developing ongoing relationships with major retailers, big box
stores and major corporations and governmental units.
11
COMPETITION
Our major competitors in the active skylight market are Solar Tracking
Skylights, Inc., Natural Lighting, Inc. and Sundolier. Our major competitors in
the passive skylight market are Solatube, Inc., Sun Optics and Velux Skylights.
Therefore, our markets are highly competitive and many of our passive skylight
competitors have greater financial and human resources that we have, while our
active skylight competitors are smaller companies with minor, if any,
competitive advantages. We will compete with these competitors by offering
better quality and effective products at competitive pricing. If we fail to
effectively compete with our competitors, then we may not be able to stay in
business. These competitors have already successfully marketed and
commercialized products that compete with our products.
Our competitors may succeed in developing or licensing products and
technologies that are more effective or less costly than our products and the
products that we are developing. If we are unable to compete successfully, we
will not be able to sell enough products at a price sufficient to permit us to
generate profits.
OUR INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY
Our success depends on the skills of our employees and their ability to
continue to innovate and improve our intellectual property. We rely on a
combination of copyright, trademark, patent and design laws, trade secrets,
confidentiality procedures and contractual provisions to protect our
intellectual property rights and proprietary methodologies. We enter into
confidentiality agreements with our employees and consultants and we generally
control access to and distribution of proprietary information. These agreements
generally provide that any confidential information developed by us or on our
behalf be kept confidential. Further, we require all employees to execute
written agreements assigning to us all rights in all inventions, developments,
technologies and other intellectual property created by our employees.
We currently own United States Letters Patent No. 7,430,077 for "Solar
Tracking Reflector System for Structure Lighting," which issued on September 30,
2008, and which we acquired in December 2009. This patent covers our three
mirror system that is included in our Suntracker One(TM) product and expires on
May 25, 2027. We also own United States Patent Application No. 12/323,935 for
"Solar Tracking Reflector System for Structure Lighting," which was filed on
November 26, 2008, and acquired by us in December 2009. Our U.S. patent
application covers our "one or more" mirror system and, therefore covers both
our Suntracker One(TM) product (which has three mirrors) and our Suntracker
Two(TM) product (which has one mirror). On June 14, 2010, the United States
Patent and Trademark Office allowed our U.S. Patent Application by issuing a
Notice of Allowance and Notice of Allowability. Our application has entered the
issue process and should issue in due course.
We currently have one European patent application pending before the
European Patent Office (European Patent Application No. 07797814.6). We also
have one Canadian patent application pending before the Canadian Intellectual
Property Office (Canadian Patent Application No. 2,667,258). On June 25, 2010,
our Mexican patent application before the Mexican Institute of Industrial
Property (Mexican Patent Application No. MX/a/2008/015119) was approved for our
three mirror or more design. In addition, we have Canadian, European and Mexican
patent applications covering our one or more mirror systems and, therefore,
cover both our Suntracker One(TM) and Suntracker Two(TM) products. We do not
have any products that are not covered by our US Patent or our US, Canadian,
European and Mexican patent applications.
Except for our U.S. and Mexico patents and our patent applications pending
in Canada, Europe, Mexico and the United States, we have no other patent rights.
In addition, we are in the process of registering various trademarks for
which we have common law rights. We also own certain trade secrets and formulae.

COMPETITIVE BUSINESS CONDITIONS
The Company competes with many companies in the global markets and many of
our competitors are large, well funded companies who have substantially larger
staffs and resources than we have at the present time. Unlike the many companies
that compete in the global market manufacturing building materials, we are
unique. Few companies manufacture our product or anything similar in nature. We
intend to compete based on our unique technology and business and government
contacts within China.
FOREIGN CURRENCY RISK
The Company is selling products in the foreign arena and is exposed to
foreign currency fluctuations. However, since we quote our prices in U.S.
Dollars, we do not feel the risks normally associated with foreign currencies
are material to our business.
RAW MATERIALS AND SUPPLIES
The Company has contact with and access to numerous suppliers of the raw
materials and components needed to manufacture our skylights and is not
dependent on any one supplier or limited group of suppliers. The components
contained in our Smart Skylight(TM) system are supplied by third party
manufacturers and, in most cases, there are alternative sources for each
component.
Our manufacturers include the following:
Manufacturer Component Location
------------ --------- --------
All Metals Mirror Assembly Texas
Angell & Giroux Lightwells California
Apex Plastics GPS Controller Case Texas
CanFab Roof curbs California
Empire Metal Products Lightwells/Roof curbs Arizona
KCC International Roof Curbs Kentucky
Malcolite Corporation Lenses California
Plastic Fabricating Lenses Utah
Ray's Plastics Skylight Dome California
Replex Plastics Skylight Dome Ohio
Solar Industries Dome Metal Frame Arizona
Suntron Corporation GPS Electronics and Assembly Texas
DEPENDENCE ON ONE OR A FEW MAJOR CUSTOMERS
The Company has a diverse customer base and is not dependent on any one
customer or limited group of customers. The Company's offerings of products
appeal to both the retail and industrial customer base. Through the widespread
use of the Company's products, the Company will continue to increase its
customer base.
EFFECT OF EXISTING OR PROBABLE GOVERNMENTAL REGULATIONS
The Company's common stock is registered pursuant to Section 12(g) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 ("1934 Act"). As a result of such registration,
the Company is subject to Regulation 14A of the "1934 Act," which regulates
proxy solicitations. Section 14(a) requires all companies with securities
registered pursuant to Section 12(g) thereof to comply with the rules and
regulations of the Commission regarding proxy solicitations, as outlined in
Regulation 14A. Matters submitted to stockholders of the Company at a special or
annual meeting thereof or pursuant to a written consent will require the Company
to provide its stockholders with the information outlined in Schedules 14A or
14C of Regulation 14; preliminary copies of this information must be submitted
to the Commission at least 10 days prior to the date that definitive copies of
this information are forwarded to stockholders.
13
The Company is also required to file annual reports on Form 10-K and
quarterly reports on Form 10-Q with the Commission on a regular basis, and will
be required to disclose certain events in a timely manner, (e.g. changes in
corporate control; acquisitions or dispositions of a significant amount of
assets other than in the ordinary course of business; and bankruptcy) in a
Current Report on Form 8-K.
WE ARE SUBJECT TO THE REQUIREMENTS OF SECTION 404 OF THE SARBANES-OXLEY ACT
OF 2002. IF WE ARE UNABLE TO TIMELY COMPLY WITH SECTION 404 OR IF THE COSTS
RELATED TO COMPLIANCE ARE SIGNIFICANT, OUR PROFITABILITY, STOCK PRICE AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION COULD BE MATERIALLY ADVERSELY
AFFECTED.
The Company is required to comply with the provisions of Section 404 of the
Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, which requires that we document and test our
internal controls and certify that we are responsible for maintaining an
adequate system of internal control procedures for the 2010 fiscal year. We are
currently evaluating our existing controls against the standards adopted by the
Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). During
the course of our ongoing evaluation and integration of the internal controls of
our business, we may identify areas requiring improvement, and we may have to
design enhanced processes and controls to address issues identified through this
review (see Item 9A, below for a discussion of our internal controls and
procedures).
We believe that the out-of-pocket costs, the diversion of management's
attention from running the day-to-day operations and operational changes caused
by the need to comply with the requirement of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley
Act could be significant. If the time and costs associated with such compliance
exceed our current expectations, our results of operations and the future
fillings of our Company could be materially adversely affected.
DEPENDENCE ON KEY EMPLOYEES AND NEED FOR ADDITIONAL MANAGEMENT AND PERSONNEL
The Company is heavily dependent on the ability of our President, Jeffrey
S. Brain, who has contributed essential technical and management experience to
our business. The Company will be dependent upon Mr. Brain to recruit good
management for the Company.
In the event of future growth in administration, marketing, manufacturing
and customer support functions, the Company may have to increase the depth and
experience of its management team by adding new members. The Company's success
will depend to a large degree upon the active participation of its key officers
and employees, as well as the continued service of its key management personnel
and its ability to identify, hire, and retain additional qualified personnel.
There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to recruit such
qualified personnel to enable it to conduct its proposed business successfully.
EMPLOYEES
As of March 18, 2011, we had six full time employees, and no part time
employees. We believe that our relations with our employees are good. Our
employees are not represented by a union or covered by a collective bargaining
agreement.
REPORTS TO SECURITY HOLDERS
The public may view and obtain copies of the Company's reports, as filed
with the Securities and Exchange Commission, at the SEC's Public Reference Room
at 100 F Street, NE, Room 1580, Washington, D.C. 20549. Information on the
Public Reference Room is available by calling the SEC at 1-800-SEC-0330.
Additionally, copies of the Company's reports are available and can be accessed
and downloaded via the internet on the SEC's internet site at

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS.
We are a smaller reporting company and are not required to provide the
information required by this item.
ITEM 1B. UNRESOLVED STAFF COMMENTS.
Not applicable.
ITEM 2. PROPERTIES.
The Company does not own any real estate. We are currently subleasing our
office and warehouse facility at 670 E. Parkridge, Suite 112, Corona, California
92879 for $3,000 a month. The property is owned by one of our Directors,
Frederick Feck. This is a verbal lease and runs month to month. The space
consists of approximately 3,500 square feet. We occupied this warehouse facility
from March 1, 2009, until September 30, 2009, on a rent free basis. From October
1, 2009, until March 31, 2010, we occupied this warehouse facility under a
verbal lease for $3,000 per month. Our board of directors believes this new
rental arrangement is fair to the Company. SEE "CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND
RELATED TRANSACTIONS."
We are also leasing an office at 15303 Ventura Boulevard, 9th Floor,
Sherman Oaks, California 91403 at a cost of $150 per month.
ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.
On October 15, 2009, we filed a lawsuit in the Superior Court of the State
of California for the County of Orange, Central Justice Center (Case No.
30-2009, 00314998) ("Complaint") against Jacque Stevens, Rex Miller, A-1
Daylighting, Consultech, Daylight Specialist and DOES 1-25. The Complaint
includes five causes of action by us against the defendants: Tortious
Interference with Contract, Commercial Disparagement, Conspiracy, Breach of
Contract, Unfair Business Practices and Libel. The Complaint alleges that we
entered into a nondisclosure agreement as part of an agreement to work toward
completing a joint venture/private label of our solar lighting systems with
Firestone Building Products and that defendants attempted to interfere with our
business relationship with Firestone Building Products by disparaging our
products (misrepresentations regarding prior sales, installations and quality of
service and that we provided or substituted defective or improper parts in our
products). We are seeking general, special and punitive or exemplary damages and
injunctive relief against the defendants.
While some of the defendants have answered the Complaint, none of them has
filed a counterclaim against us in this case.
We have no legal proceedings against our company.
ITEM 4. (REMOVED AND RESERVED).
Not applicable
PART II
ITEM 5. MARKET FOR REGISTRANT'S COMMON EQUITY, RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS AND
ISSUER PURCHASES OF EQUITY SECURITIES.
Our common stock is not currently traded or quoted on any national
exchange. We are in the process of having our common stock become quoted on the
Over the Counter Bulletin Board. We anticipate this will occur on or about June
1, 2011.
15
When our common stock begins trading on the Over the Counter Bulletin
Board, our common stock will likely be considered a "penny stock." The
application of the "penny stock" rules to our common stock could limit the
trading and liquidity of the common stock, adversely affect the market price of
our common stock and increase your transaction costs to sell those shares. The
Commission has adopted regulations which generally define a "penny stock" to be
any equity security that has a market price (as defined) of less than $5.00 per
share or an exercise price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain
exceptions.
HOLDERS
As of March 18, 2011, there were approximately 124 shareholders of record
of the Company's Common Stock and one shareholder of record of the Company's
Series A Preferred Stock.
DIVIDENDS
The Company has not declared any cash dividends with respect to its common
stock or preferred stock during the last two fiscal years and does not intend to
declare dividends in the foreseeable future. There are no material restrictions
limiting or that are likely to limit the Company's ability to pay dividends on
its outstanding securities.
RECENT ISSUANCES OF UNREGISTERED SECURITIES
Since our inception in February 2009, we issued the following securities
without registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, that have not
been previously included in our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q or in our Current

During the first quarter of 2011, we have issued 25,000 shares of common
stock to an individual for engineering services valued at $12,500; 25,000 shares

1,000,000 shares of our Series A Preferred Stock to George Adams, Sr. in
exchange for certain assets, including patents and patent applications, that
were owned by Mr. Adams.
In December 2009, we issued an additional 400,000 shares to Mr. Adams for
certain assets held by him. We also issued 200,000 shares of our common stock to
Frederick Feck upon conversion of a convertible note.
16
The above shares were issued in reliance on the exemption from registration
requirements of the 33 Act provided by Section 4(2) and Regulation D, Rule 506
promulgated thereunder, as the issuance of the stock did not involve a public
offering of securities based on the following:

account of any other person and not with a view to or for
distribution, assignment or resale in connection with any distribution
within the meaning of the 33 Act;

the securities have not been registered under the 33 Act and,
therefore, cannot be resold unless they are registered under the 33
Act or unless an exemption from registration is available;

securities unless they are registered under the 33 Act and any
applicable state laws, or an exemption or exemptions from such

communication published in any newspaper, magazine or similar media or
broadcast over television or radio;
* we did not conduct, hold or participate in any seminar or meeting
whose attendees had been invited by any general solicitation or
general advertising;
* we placed a legend on each certificate or other document that
evidences the securities stating that the securities have not been
registered under the 33 Act and setting forth or referring to the
restrictions on transferability and sale of the securities;
* we placed stop transfer instructions in our stock transfer records;
* we sold securities to less than 35 individuals who were not
"accredited investors" as defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D
promulgated under the 33 Act;
* no underwriter was involved in the offering and the only registered
broker-dealer involved in the offering was Marquis Financial Services
to whom we paid commissions in the amount of $6,500 (equal to 10% of

17
* we made independent determinations that such persons were
sophisticated or accredited investors and that they were capable of
analyzing the merits and risks of their investment in us, that they
understood the speculative nature of their investment in us and that
they could lose their entire investment in us.

OVERVIEW
We are a manufacturer and wholesaler of "advanced skylights" for use in
warehouses, schools, retail stores, airports, military installations and
residential buildings. We develop, market and sell the Suntracker One(TM) and
Suntracker Two(TM) units and we are currently marketing our advanced daylighting
system under the name Smart Skylight(TM).
We were incorporated in the state of Nevada on February 26, 2009, under the
name "Ciralight West, Inc." On March 13, 2009, we changed our name to "Ciralight
Global, Inc." In April 2009, we entered into an Exchange of Stock for Assets
Agreement with Mr. George Adams, Sr. to acquire certain assets including, but
not limited to, a United States patent, patent applications pending in Canada,
Europe, Mexico and the United States, artwork, trademarks, equipment, furniture,
databases, technical drawings, promotional materials, trade names and inventory
parts and marketing rights related to the Suntracker One(TM) and Suntracker
Two(TM) daylighting products previously owned and distributed by Ciralight,
Inc., a Utah corporation, such assets having been foreclosed on by Mr. Adams,
who was the secured creditor of Ciralight, Inc. We did not acquire any equity
securities, debts, liabilities or financial obligations of Ciralight, Inc., the
Prior Company. Ciralight, Inc. is a predecessor to Ciralight Global, Inc.,
although we have no affiliation, contractual or otherwise, with Ciralight, Inc.
or any of its employees, officers or directors. Ciralight, Inc. ceased
operations on January 27, 2009.
In April 2009, we acquired all of the above described assets from Mr.
Adams, except for the United States patent and the patent applications pending
in Canada, Europe, Mexico and the United States, in exchange for 3,200,000
shares of our common stock and 1,000,000 shares of our Series A Preferred Stock.
In December 2009, we acquired the United States patent and the patent
applications pending in Canada, Europe, Mexico and the United States from Mr.
Adams in exchange for the issuance by us of an additional 400,000 shares of our
common stock and a convertible promissory note in the amount of $250,000. The
promissory note we issued to Mr. Adams is convertible into shares of our common
stock at a conversion rate of one share per $.25 of outstanding principal and
interest. As a result of this transaction, Mr. Adams is our largest shareholder
and has voting control over us.
As described in the above paragraphs, Ciralight, Inc. is a predecessor to
Ciralight Global, Inc., since the major portion of the business and assets of
Ciralight, Inc. were acquired by Ciralight Global, Inc. in a series of related
successions in each of which the acquiring person or entity acquired the major
portion of the business and assets of Ciralight, Inc.
In order to raise working capital, we commenced a Private Placement
Offering in the amount of $800,000 in April 2009. Our common stock was offered
at a fixed price of $.25 per share. We raised the $800,000 by mid October 2009
and the investors purchased a 40% stake in the company for a total of 3,200,000
shares.
In October 2009, the Company elected to extend the private offering in
order to raise an additional $500,000 in working capital by offering 2,000,000
additional shares at $.25 per share. We raised the additional $500,000 by mid
January 2010, at which time the offering was closed.
19
As of the date of this 10-K filing, we continue to add between one and
three new dealers for our patented, energy-saving Smart Skylights(TM) each week.
We recently contracted with Denver-based AIA Industries, Inc., a leader in
custom manufacture of quality plastic and structural glass skylights for
residential and commercial applications, to distribute Ciralight's sun-tracking
GPS Smart Skylights(TM) in addition to their own line of standard and circular
skylights. This is significant because AIA makes their own custom line of
skylights and decided to become a dealer for Ciralight because they feel that
our Smart Skylights(TM) technology is the future of eco-friendly, energy-saving,
natural light for businesses and homes.
We are concluding a strategic dealership agreement with Progressive
Roofing, a four-state, 8-office design/build and maintenance company responsible
for such projects as the Phoenix Cardinals Stadium in Glendale, AZ, the Palo
Verde Nuclear Plant in Tonopah, NV, Hartsfield Airport, Atlanta, GA, the Westin
Casuarina Resort in Grand Cayman, Bahamas, and many more trophy buildings.
Progressive has locations in California, Nevada, New Mexico and Texas, all
sunshine states, and for which installations of our Smart Skylights(TM) make the
most sense.
We also named Mexico City-based The Global Industry Solution, SA as an
authorized Ciralight Global dealer for Mexico, joining our other international
dealerships in Spain, El Salvador, Canada, South Korea, Turkey, Europe, Israel
and Denmark. We are currently in negotiations with companies in Japan,
Indonesia, Brazil, Columbia, China, Bolivia, Chili, and Poland.
Ciralight Global will exhibit its patented product line at "Greenbuild
2010", November 17-19, in booth 778 at McCormick Place West, Chicago, the
world's largest expo hall devoted to green building. Ciralight Global and The
Energy Solution Group, one of Ciralight's local dealers, will take part in
"Rethinking Energy Modeling: Incorporating Non-Traditional Approaches in
Simulations for Daylighting," as well as demonstrating the energy-saving
features of its Smart Skylights(TM). Other exhibitors include world famous
multinational corporations such as General Electric, BASF, Johnson Controls,
Georgia Pacific, the U.S. Department of Energy and the General Services
Administration. If you are in Chicago at that time, please stop by and see our
display.
The emphasis on energy-efficient "Green" buildings, maintenance and
sustainability make our Smart Skylights(TM) a very desirable addition when
architects and builders are planning new construction.
20
We are making good progress towards introducing our Smart Skylights(TM) for
homes, which, like our commercial Smart Skylights(TM), will be eligible to
receive federal, state and local tax credits and utility incentives as an Energy
Saving Green product. Our home Smart Skylights(TM) will deliver the same energy
saving benefits as our commercial Smart Skylights(TM), such as improved lighting
and improved health due to more natural light and reduced household utility
costs. Our 4'x8' Smart Skylight(TM), the Suntracker Three(TM), will begin
shipping within weeks and we are presently receiving orders for this new popular
addition to our product line.
We recently made a presentation to supervisors in a very populous U.S.
county, which when their decision is made, and if it is in our favor, could
result in a strong entry to our bottom line. We recently completed new
installations at the Columbus Zoo in Ohio, Market of Choice in Corvallis,
Oregon, Fanshawe College and Northern College in Canada, LG facilities in
Turkey, and Sahurita High School Gym and Riverside Elementary School in Arizona.
Next week we are shipping 48 of our Smart Skylights(TM), for a new Whole Foods
Market in Austin Texas and 27 for BD Biosciences in Northern California. We
continue to progress on dialogue we have had in the last few months with such
potential customers as the U.S. Army Corp of Engineers, City of Los Angeles
Mayor's Office, City of Los Angeles Building & Safety Department, California
Institute of Technology, American Honda Motor Co., U.S. Naval Facilities
Command, Toyota Motor Sales USA, Parsons Construction Co., Turner Construction
Company, Los Angeles Community Colleges District, Los Angeles Unified School
District, NASA, University of Alabama, Los Angeles County, and others.
Ciralight's existing customer base, such as certain locations of Giant
Foods, Office Depot, Ace Hardware, Emerson, Boeing, Johnson & Johnson, Staples,
Whole Foods, Walt Disney Studios, and others, continue to evaluate the results
they have achieved in lowering their costs of energy, and are in fact, either
adding more locations, or are in process of doing so.
Ciralight Global is the only global provider of active daylighting products
capable of turning off electric lights for up to 10 hours a day. Our energy
saving Smart Skylights(TM) use sun-tracking GPS technology and mirrors to track
the sun throughout the day and drive natural light into buildings. The result is
a bright, healthy, glare-free light, just as Nature intended. Unlike traditional
skylights, our Smart Skylights(TM) do not create the heat associated with normal
Skylights. Ciralight Global's flagship products, the Smart SunTrackerOne(TM) and
SunTrackerTwo(TM) skylights, are a solar powered lighting solution for
commercial buildings, schools, factories, public facilities and retail stores
looking to save energy. In addition to significant energy and cost savings, the
benefits from Smart Skylights(TM) are many including better worker performance,
increased sales, and a reduced impact on the environment. We are proud of our
Green energy saving products and services and are committed to producing and
selling the highest quality and most cost saving skylights. Every time Ciralight
Smart Skylights(TM) are installed on a building, it is a significant move toward
a greener planet.
RISKS, UNCERTAINTIES AND TRENDS RELATING TO THE COMPANY AND INDUSTRY
The industrial lighting industry is intensely competitive. We have numerous
competitors in the United States and elsewhere. Several of these competitors
have already successfully marketed and commercialized products that compete with
our products. Our success is dependent up our ability to effectively and
21
profitably produce, market and sell our products. Our business strategy and
success is dependent on the skills and knowledge of our management team and
consultants. The marketability and profitability of our products is subject to
unknown economic conditions, which could significantly impact our business,
financial condition, the marketability of our products and our profitability. We
are vulnerable to the current economic crisis which may negatively affect our
profitability. Our success depends, in part, on the quality of our products.
Our Smart Skylight(TM) products provide natural daylighting that is a key
component in many current construction and existing structures. Smart
Skylights(TM) are maintenance free, powered by the sun and completely
self-contained. We are currently marketing our Smart Skylight(TM) products to
warehouse owners, roofing companies, shopping centers, schools and military
installations in the United States. We are working on establishing sales in
Canada, Mexico and overseas. The market for advanced skylights is growing year
over year due to pressures on building owners, tenants, schools and government
agencies to reduce energy consumption and expense. The "green" movement, carbon
footprint ideology and other environmental initiatives should provide increased
growth in our market segment.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES
Our management's discussion and analysis of our financial condition and
results of operations are based on our condensed financial statements, which
have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted
in the United States. The preparation of these financial statements requires us
to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date
of the financial statements as well as the reported net sales and expenses
during the reporting periods. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates and
assumptions. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other
factors that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances, the results of
which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and
liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may
differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
While our significant accounting policies are more fully described in Note
3 to our financial statements, we believe that the following accounting policies
are the most critical to aid the reader in fully understanding and evaluating
this discussion and analysis:
BASIS OF PRESENTATION - The accompanying financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for
financial information and have been prepared pursuant to the rules and
regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission for smaller reporting
companies. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal
recurring accruals, necessary for a fair presentation of the results of
operations of the Company for the Three and Nine Month Periods Ended September
30, 2010 (Unaudited), the Three Month Period Ended September 30, 2009
(Unaudited) and for the Period from February 26, 2009 (inception) to September
30, 2009 (Unaudited), have been reflected herein.
INVENTORIES - Inventories, consisting primarily of finished skylight units
and parts for sale, are recorded using the average cost method. Inventory
acquired from the prior company was booked at the historical cost of the prior
company.
22
REVENUE RECOGNITION - Revenue on our skylights and parts are recognized
when the units or parts ship to the customer.
EARNINGS PER SHARE - Earnings per share is computed in accordance with the
provisions of Financial Accounting Standards (FASB) Accounting Standards
Codification (ASC) Topic 260 (SFAS No. 128, "EARNINGS PER Share"). Basic net
income (loss) per share is computed using the weighted-average number of common
shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed
using the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the
period, as adjusted for the dilutive effect of the Company's outstanding
convertible preferred shares using the "if converted" method and dilutive
potential common shares. Potentially dilutive securities include warrants,
convertible preferred stock, restricted shares, and contingently issuable
shares.
STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION - The Company accounts for stock-based
compensation under the provisions of FASB ASC 718 (Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 123 (revised 2004), "SHARE-BASED PAYMENT"), which
requires the Company to measure the stock-based compensation costs of
share-based compensation arrangements based on the grant date fair value and
generally recognizes the costs in the financial statements over the employee's
requisite service period. Stock-based compensation expense for all stock-based
compensation awards granted was based on the grant date fair value estimated in
accordance with the provisions of FASB ASC 718.
SHIPPING AND HANDLING COSTS - The Company includes shipping and handling
costs that are billed to our customers in revenue and the actual costs incurred
for shipping and handling are included in cost of goods sold in accordance with
the provisions of FASB ASC 605-45-45-20. The related costs are considered
necessary to complete the revenue cycle.
WARRANTY COSTS - Commencing April 1, 2009, the Company provided a five-year
warranty covering the labor and materials associated with its installations.
Effective September 1, 2009, the Company changed the coverage to ten years in
the U.S. The Company's "advanced skylights" are warranted by the manufacturer
for 10 years, generally. The Company (at its option) will repair, replace or
give credit for the original purchase price on any of its products or parts. An
accrual for a loss contingency has been made, since warranty expenses to date
have been consistent and a reasonable estimate of future expenses can be made,
in accordance with FASB ASC 460-10-50-8 (c).
COMPREHENSIVE INCOME (LOSS) - FASB ASC Topic 220 (Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 130, "REPORTING COMPREHENSIVE INCOME") establishes
standards for reporting comprehensive income (loss) and its components in a
financial statement that is displayed with the same prominence as other
financial statements. Comprehensive income (loss), as defined, includes all
changes in equity during the period from non-owner sources, such as foreign
currency translation adjustments.
RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In April 2009, the FASB issued FASB ASC 825-10-50 and FASB ASC 270 ("FSP
107-1 AND APB 28-1 INTERIM DISCLOSURES ABOUT FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL
INSTRUMENTS"), which increases the frequency of fair value disclosures to a
quarterly basis instead of on an annual basis. The guidance relates to fair
23
value disclosures for any financial instruments that are not currently reflected
on an entity's balance sheet at fair value. FASB ASC 825-10-50 and FASB ASC 270
are effective for interim and annual periods ending after June 15, 2009. The
adoption of FASB ASC 825-10-50 and FASB ASC 270 did not have a material impact
on results of operations, cash flows, or financial position
In May 2009, the FASB issued FASB ASC 470 (Staff Position No. APB 14-1
"ACCOUNTING FOR CONVERTIBLE DEBT INSTRUMENTS THAT MAY BE SETTLED IN CASH UPON
CONVERSION (INCLUDING PARTIAL CASH SETTLEMENT)"). FASB ASC 470 clarifies that
convertible debt instruments that may be settled in cash upon conversion
(including partial cash settlement) are not addressed by FASB ASC 470-20-65-1
(paragraph 12 of APB Opinion No. 14, "ACCOUNTING FOR CONVERTIBLE DEBT AND DEBT
ISSUED WITH STOCK PURCHASE WARRANTS"). Additionally, FASB ASC 470 specifies that
issuers of such instruments should separately account for the liability and
equity components in a manner that will reflect the entity's nonconvertible debt
borrowing rate when interest cost is recognized in subsequent periods. FASB ASC
470 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning
after December 15, 2008 and interim periods within those fiscal years. The
adoption of FASB ASC 470 did not have an effect on our consolidated financial
statements.
In May 2009, the FASB issued FASB ASC 855 (SFAS No. 165, "SUBSEQUENT
EVENTS"), which establishes general standards of accounting for and disclosure
of events that occur after the balance sheet date but before financial
statements are issued or are available to be issued. In particular, FASB ASC 855
sets forth (a) the period after the balance sheet date during which management
of a reporting entity should evaluate events or transactions that may occur for
potential recognition or disclosure in the financial statements, (b) the
circumstances under which an entity should recognize events or transactions
occurring after the balance sheet date in its financial statements, and (c) the
disclosures that an entity should make about events or transactions that
occurred after the balance sheet date. FASB ASC 855 is effective for interim or
annual financial reporting periods ending after June 15, 2009. The adoption of
FASB ASC 855 did not have an impact on results of operations, cash flows, or
financial position.
In June 2009, the FASB issued FASB ASC 810 (SFAS No. 167, "AMENDMENTS TO
FASB INTERPRETATION NO. 46(R)"). FASB ASC 810 applies to FASB ASC 105 entities
and is effective for annual financial periods beginning after November 15, 2009
and for interim periods within those years. Earlier application is prohibited. A
calendar year-end company must adopt this statement as of January 1, 2010. The
Company does not anticipate the adoption of FASB ASC 810 to have a material
impact on results of operations, cash flows, or financial position.
In June 2009, the FASB issued FASB ASC 860 (SFAS No. 166, "ACCOUNTING FOR
TRANSFERS OF FINANCIAL ASSETS-AN AMENDMENT OF FASB STATEMENT NO. 140"). FASB ASC
860 applies to all entities and is effective for annual financial periods
beginning after November 15, 2009 and for interim periods within those years.
Earlier application is prohibited. A calendar year-end company must adopt this
statement as of January 1, 2010. This statement retains many of the criteria of
FASB ASC 860 (FASB 140, "ACCOUNTING FOR TRANSFERS AND SERVICING OF FINANCIAL
ASSETS AND EXTINGUISHMENTS OF LIABILITIES") to determine whether a transfer of
financial assets qualifies for sale accounting, but there are some significant
changes as discussed in the statement. Its disclosure and measurement
requirements apply to all transfers of financial assets occurring on or after
the effective date. Its disclosure requirements, however, apply to transfers
24
that occurred BOTH before and after the effective date. In addition, because
FASB ASC 860 eliminates the consolidation exemption for Qualifying Special
Purpose Entities, a company will have to analyze all existing QSPEs to determine
whether they must be consolidated under FASB ASC 810. The Company does not
anticipate the adoption of FASB ASC 860 to have a material impact on results of
operations, cash flows, or financial position.
In August 2009, the FASB issued ASU 2009-05, "MEASURING LIABILITIES AT FAIR
VALUE." ASU 2009-05 applies to all entities that measure liabilities at fair
value within the scope of FASB ASC 820, "FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS AND
DISCLOSURES." ASU 2009-05 is effective for the first reporting period (including
interim periods) beginning after issuance, October 1, 2009, for the Company. The
Company does not anticipate the adoption of ASU 2009-05 to have a material
impact on results of operations, cash flows, or financial position.
In October 2009, the FASB ratified FASB ASC 605-25 (the EITF's final
consensus on Issue 08-1, "REVENUE ARRANGEMENTS WITH MULTIPLE DELIVERABLES").
FASB ASC 605-25 is effective for fiscal years beginning on or after June 15,
2010. Earlier adoption is permitted on a prospective or retrospective basis. The
Company is currently evaluating the impact of this pronouncement on its
consolidated financial statements.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS OF THE COMPANY
COMPARISON OF THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2010 WITH THE PERIOD FROM FEBRUARY 26,
2009 (INCEPTION) TO DECEMBER 31, 2009.
NET SALES. Net sales for year ended December 31, 2010 were $774,105
compared to $640,425 for the period from February 26, 2009 (inception) to
December 31, 2009. The increase of $133,680 in net sales for 2010 represents a
21% increase over the net sales in 2009.
Sales and demand for our products have been increasing each quarter. Lower
sales in 2009 were attributable to the transition time required for our Company
to move, setup and commence the new operations, set up our sales force, as well
as address former company customer, investor and supplier issues, raise our
working capital, and a self-imposed 60 day period, during which we refrained
from making new sales while product improvements were being completed. As a
result of the efficiencies we implemented, our sales increased steadily during
2010.
COST OF SALES. Cost of sales for the year ended December 31, 2010 was
$609,796 on net revenue of $774,105, representing 79% of net sales, compared to
the period from February 26, 2009 (inception) to December 31, 2009 in which cost
of sales was $563,249 on net sales of $640,425, representing 88% of net sales.
The reduction of cost of sales as a percentage of net sales in 2010,
compared to 2009, was achieved by implementing a number of changes in the
business operations. These included stricter controls over the movement of
inventory to reduce losses, damage, and waste, making improvements to the
products in order to reduce warranty work, implementing cost effective shipping
options available through better pre-planning and scheduling, managing inventory
levels by scheduling production to match demand forecasts, changing to more
quality oriented suppliers, negotiating more favorable manufacturing agreements,
and implementing cost reducing design changes.
25
GROSS PROFIT. Gross profit for the year ended December 31, 2010 was
$164,309, providing a gross profit margin of 21% compared to gross profit for
period from February 26, 2009 (inception) to December 31, 2009 of $77,176,
providing a gross profit margin of 12%.
During 2009 and 2010, in an effort to address issues experienced by
customers that purchased product from the prior company, Ciralight, Inc., we
sold replacement parts or parts that had been purchased by customers, but never
shipped to old customers by the prior company, at our cost. Our gross profit
increased, even though we sold product at cost in order to resolve past issues
from the prior company. All of the open issues and problems reported by former
customers have been resolved. With the elimination of resolution of past issues,
continued product enhancements and refinements to our production process, we
anticipate higher gross profit margins in the future.
OPERATING EXPENSES. Our operating expenses consist of research and
development expenses, selling and marketing expenses and general and
administrative expenses. For the year ended December 31, 2010, total operating
expenses were $1,189,111, representing 154% as a percentage of net sales. For
the period from February 26, 2009 (inception) to December 31, 2009, total
operating expenses were $894,870, representing 140% as a percentage of net
sales.
Research and development expenses for the year ended December 31, 2010 were
$61,459, representing 8% of net sales, compared to the period from February 26,
2009 (inception) to December 31, 2009 in which research and development expenses
were $22,229, representing 3% of net sales. During 2010, we improved the design
and operating efficiency of our energy-saving Smart Skylights(TM)and developed
our 4'x8' Smart Skylight(TM), the Suntracker Three(TM).
Selling and marketing expenses for the year ended December 31, 2010 were
$211,151, representing 27% of net sales, compared to the period from February
26, 2009 (inception) to December 31, 2009 in which selling and marketing
expenses were $72,847, representing 11% of net sales. During 2010, our marketing
efforts have focused on exhibiting and presenting our patented product line and
the introduction of the Suntracker Three(TM). In addition to our marketing
strategy with architects and builders planning new construction with the
emphasis on energy-efficient "Green" buildings, we have progressed towards
introducing our Smart Skylights(TM) for homes.
General and administrative expenses for the year ended December 31, 2010
were $916,501, representing 118% of net sales, compared to the period from
February 26, 2009 (inception) to December 31, 2009 in which general and
administrative expenses were $799,794, representing 125% of net sales. General
and administrative expenses decreased in 2010, as a percentage of sales, as a
result of the number of changes in the manner in which our business was operated
that were initiated in 2009 and fully implemented during 2010. In 2009 our
Company operated with only four employees and outsourced required additional
services on an as needed basis. No employees from the prior company were
employed or brought over to our Company. They were not part of the rights we
acquired and this has created a culture of efficiency and accountability. We
eliminated the practice of having consultants and sales people on retainers.
Compensation is tied to work completed. We elected not to directly hire sales
personnel and instead require that they work for third party dealers and
distributors, thus reducing the overhead cost of carrying and supporting an
extended staff.
INCOME TAXES. Management has decided not to record the tax benefit for the
year ended December 31, 2010 or for the period from February 26, 2009
(inception) to December 31, 2009.
26
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
CASH FLOWS - FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2010 COMPARED WITH THE PERIOD FROM
FEBRUARY 26, 2009 (INCEPTION) TO DECEMBER 31, 2009.
Net cash used in operating activities was $615,464 and $1,085,168 for the
year ended December 31, 2010 and for the period from February 26, 2009
(inception) to December 31, 2009, respectively. The net cash of $615,464 used in
operating activities for the year ended December 31, 2010 is attributable to the
net loss of $1,034,416 for the period, offset primarily by a decrease of
$112,487 in accounts receivable and an increase in accounts payable of $156,596.
The net cash of $1,085,168 used in operating activities for the period from
February 26, 2009 (inception) to December 31, 2009 is attributable to the net
loss of $820,289 for the period, offset primarily by an increase in accounts
receivable of $270,817, an increase in prepayments and deposits of $135,391 and
an increase in other payables of $140,916.
There was no net cash used in investing activities for the year ended
December 31, 2010 and for the period from February 26, 2009 (inception) to
December 31, 2009, net cash used in investing activities was a result of the
acquisition of $3,500 of business assets.
Net cash provided by financing activities was $552,819 and $1,354,421 for
the year ended December 31, 2010 and for the period from February 26, 2009
(inception) to December 31, 2009, respectively. Net cash provided by financing
activities for both periods was attributable to sales of the Company's common
stock through a private offering of $280,000 and $1,242,000 and from the
issuance of related party notes of $275,000 and $122,295 for the year ended
December 31, 2010 and for the period from February 26, 2009 (inception) to
December 31, 2009, respectively.
CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS AND OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS
CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS
We have certain fixed contractual obligations and commitments that include
future estimated payments. Changes in our business needs, cancellation
provisions, changing interest rates, and other factors may result in actual
payments differing from the estimates. We cannot provide certainty regarding the
timing and amounts of payments. We have presented below a summary of the most
significant assumptions used in our determination of amounts presented in the
tables, in order to assist in the review of this information within the context
of our consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows.
The following table summarizes our contractual obligations as of December
31, 2010, and the effect these obligations are expected to have on our liquidity

FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE.
Not applicable.
ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Commencing with our Annual Report for the 2011 fiscal year, we will be
required to maintain "disclosure controls and procedures." The term "disclosure
controls and procedures," as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the
Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended ("Exchange Act"), means controls
and other procedures of a company that are designed to ensure that information
required to be disclosed by the company in the reports it files or submits under
the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the
time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and
forms. Disclosure controls and procedures also include, without limitation,
controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be
disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the
Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the company's management,
including its principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons
performing similar functions, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions
regarding required disclosure.
Management's Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Commencing with our Annual Report for the 2011 fiscal year, our management
will be responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control
over financial reporting as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the
Exchange Act. Our internal control over financial reporting is designed to
provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting
and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance
with generally accepted accounting principles. Our internal control over
financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that:
(1) pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail
accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of our
assets;
28
(2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as
necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance
with U.S. GAAP, and that our receipts and expenditures are being made
only in accordance with the authorization of our management and
directors; and
(3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection
of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of our assets that
could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial
reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any
evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that
controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the
degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
This Annual Report does not include a report of management's assessment
regarding internal control over financial reporting or an attestation report of
the Company's registered public accounting firm due to a transition period
established by rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission for newly public
companies.
Changes in internal control over financial reporting.
We did not change our internal control over financial reporting during our
last fiscal quarter that materially affected, or is reasonably likely to
materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting.

FREDERICK FECK, CORPORATE SECRETARY AND A DIRECTOR
Mr. Feck, age 80, is a Director of the Company and our Corporate Secretary.
Mr. Feck has been in the real estate development and construction industry from
1960 until the present time. Mr. Feck developed the first true condominium with
Fee Title to cubical air space in California. After the passage of the Medicare
bill in late 1965, Mr. Feck entered the health care field syndicating and
developing convalescent hospitals. Mr. Feck acted as a general partner in the
syndication of a 204 bed convalescent hospital known as The Rio Hondo
Convalescent Hospital in Montebello, California. In 1970, Mr. Feck co-founded

COMMITTEES OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS
We do not currently have an audit committee or a compensation committee.

COMPENSATION OF DIRECTORS
Our directors do not receive any direct cash compensation for their service
on our board of directors. However, in 2010, we granted each of our two
directors 100,000 options to purchase shares of our common stock at an exercise
price of $.425 per share. Any future director compensation will be determined by
our compensation committee, once it is chartered.
SELECTION OF DIRECTORS
We believe that our board of directors should be composed of individuals
with sophistication and experience in many substantive areas that impact our
business. We believe that experience, qualifications or skills in the following
areas are most important: (i) organizational leadership and vision; (ii)
strategic, financial and operational planning; (iii) corporate restructuring and
performance enhancement; (iv) corporate finance; and (v) experience as a board
member of other corporations. These areas are in addition to the personal
qualifications described in this section. We believe that our current board
members possess the professional and personal qualifications necessary for board
service.
DIRECTORSHIPS
During the past five years, none of our directors or persons nominated or
chosen to become directors held any other directorship in any company with a
class of securities registered pursuant to Section 12 of the 1934 Act or subject
to the requirements of Section 15(d) of such Act or any other company registered
as an investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940.
OTHER SIGNIFICANT EMPLOYEES
No other significant employees exist.
FAMILY RELATIONSHIPS
No family relationship exists between or among any of our officers and
directors. However, one of our directors, Frederick Feck, is the brother-in-law
of George Adams, Sr., our largest shareholder.
CODE OF BUSINESS CONDUCT AND ETHICS
On December 14, 2009, we adopted a Code of Business Conduct and Ethics
applicable to our officers, including our principal executive officer, principal
financial officer, principal accounting officer or controller and any other
persons performing similar functions. Our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics
was designed to deter wrongdoing and promote honest and ethical conduct, full,
fair and accurate disclosure, compliance with laws, prompt internal reporting
and accountability to adherence to our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics. Our
Code of Business Conduct and Ethics is posted on our website at
http://www.ciralightglobal.com in the "Governance" section. Ciralight also
intends to disclose any future amendments to, and any waivers from (though none
are anticipated), the Code of Business Conduct and Ethics in the "Governance"
section of our website.

SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION PLAN
On December 30, 2010, the Company's Board of Directors approved and adopted
the Company's 2010 Employee and Consultant Stock Incentive Plan ("Plan") and
reserved a total of 800,000 shares of common stock for issuance pursuant to the
Plan. The purpose of this Plan is to provide incentives to attract, retain and
motivate eligible persons whose present and potential contributions are
important to the success of the Company by offering them an opportunity to
participate in the Company's future performance through awards of Options,
Restricted Stock and Stock Bonuses.

Total 680,900 $ 0.46 119,100
Stock options exercisable into an aggregate of 680,900 shares of the Company's
common stock were outstanding on December 31, 2010, of which 580,900 were vested
on the date granted and 100,000 are scheduled to vest during 2011. No options
were exercised during the year ended December 31, 2010. The Black-Scholes
option-pricing model was used to estimate the option fair values , in accordance
with the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 148,
"Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation -- Transition and Disclosure." This
option-pricing model requires a number of assumptions, of which the most
significant are, expected stock price volatility, the expected pre-vesting
forfeiture rate and the expected option term (the amount of time from the grant
date until the options are exercised or expire). Since the Company's stock is
not yet trading nor does it have an extended history of stock prices or
volatility, expected volatility and average contractual life variables were
estimated utilizing a weighted average of comparable published volatilities and
contractual lives based on industry comparables. Our stock options expire seven
to ten years from their grant date. We estimated the expected life, which
represents our best estimate of the period of time from the grant date that we
expect the stock options to remain outstanding, of all of our stock options for
all periods presented using the simplified method specified in ASC 718. Under
this method, we estimate the expected life of our stock options as the mid-point
between their time to vest and their contractual terms. We applied the
simplified method because we do not have sufficient historical exercise data to
provide a reasonable basis upon which to estimate expected life due to the
limited period of time our equity shares have been publicly traded and the
significant variations in vesting and contractual terms of the options that we
granted. Expected pre-vesting forfeitures were estimated based on expected
employee turnover. The fair value of options granted during the year ended
December 31, 2010 was estimated as of the grant date using the Black-Scholes
34
option pricing model with the following assumptions: a dividend yield of zero
percent, an expected volatility of between 70.5% and 71.5%, a risk-free interest
rate of 0% and a remaining contractual life of between 1.0 and 5.0 years.
COMPENSATION DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
We have prepared the following Compensation Discussion and Analysis to
provide you with information that we believe is necessary to understand our
executive compensation policies and decisions as they relate to the compensation
of our named executive officers.
We have only two members on our board of directors and do not currently
have a compensation committee. However, we intend to expand our board of
directors in the near future by appointing or electing at least two new
directors who will be deemed to be independent directors. The presence of
independent directors on our board of directors will allow us to form and
constitute a compensation committee of our board of directors.
The primary objectives of the compensation committee with respect to
executive compensation will be to (i) attract and retain the best possible
executive talent available to us; (ii) motivate our executive officers to
enhance our growth and profitability and increase shareholder value; and (iii)
reward superior performance and contributions to the achievement of corporate
objectives.
The focus of our executive pay strategy will be to tie short-term and
long-term cash and equity incentives to the achievement of measurable corporate
and individual performance objectives or benchmarks and to align executive
compensation with the creation and enhancement of shareholder value. In order to
achieve these objectives, our compensation committee will be tasked with
developing and maintaining a transparent compensation plan that will tie a
substantial portion of our executives' overall compensation to our sales,
operational efficiencies and profitability.
Our board of directors has not set any performance objectives or benchmarks
for 2011, as it intends for those objectives and benchmarks to be determined by
the compensation committee once it is constituted and then approved by the
board. However, we anticipate that compensation benefits will include
competitive salaries, bonuses (cash and equity based), health insurance and
stock option plans.
Our compensation committee will meet at least quarterly to assess the cost
and effectiveness of each executive benefit and the performance of our executive
officers in light of our revenues, expenses and profits.
ITEM 12. SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT AND
RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS.
To our knowledge, the following table sets forth, as of March 18, 2011,
information regarding the ownership of our common stock by:
* Persons who own more than 5% of our common stock
* each of our directors and each of our executive officers; and
* all directors and executive officers as a group.
35
Each person has sole voting and investment power with respect to the shares
shown, except as otherwise noted.
Amount and Nature
Name and Address of Beneficial Ownership
of Beneficial Owner (1) Number (2) Percent (2)
----------------------- ---------- -----------
George Adams, Sr. (3) 4,823,224 36.14%
Jeffrey S. Brain (4) 799,623 5.99%
Frederick Feck (5) 700,000 5.25%
All officers and directors 1,499,623 11.24%
as a group (2 persons)
----------
(1) It is the Company's policy to not disclose personal addresses for our
officers, directors and shareholders. Therefore, for the purposes of the
above table, the address of the persons named above is the Company's
address of 15303 Ventura Blvd., 9th Floor, Sherman Oaks, California 91403.
(2) The numbers and percentages set forth in these columns are based on
13,345,207 shares of common stock outstanding as of March 18, 2011. The
number and percentage of shares beneficially owned is determined in
accordance with Rule 13d-3 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, and the
information is not necessarily indicative of beneficial ownership for any
other purpose. Under such rule, beneficial ownership includes any shares as
to which the selling security holder has sole or shared voting power or
investment power and also any shares, which the selling security holder has
the right to acquire within 60 days.
(3) These 4,823,224 shares of common stock together with the 1,000,000 shares
of Series A Preferred Stock owned by Mr. Adams results in Mr. Adams having
the right to cast 51% of all votes in the election of our directors and on
any acquisition or merger transaction in which we may become involved in
the future.
(4) Mr. Brain is the beneficial owner of 624,623 shares of our common stock,
which are owned of record by Bayport Holding Company, LLC, Mr. Brain's
personal holding company. Mr. Brain has sole dispositive and voting power
over these shares. Includes options to purchase 175,000 shares of common
stock that are exercisable within the next 60 days.
(5) Includes options to purchase 100,000 shares of common stock that are
exercisable within the next 60 days.
There are no arrangements or understandings among the entities and
individuals referenced above or their respective associates concerning election
of directors or other any other matters which may require shareholder approval.
CHANGES IN CONTROL
We are not aware of any arrangements that may result in a change in control
of the Company.
By virtue of his ownership of preferred stock with super-majority voting
rights over our common stock, Mr. George Adams, Sr. will continue to control the
Company after this offering and investors in our common stock will be unable to
change control of our board of directors and of our Company. Therefore, the
shares being offered for sale by the selling shareholders lack the value
normally attributable to voting rights. This could result in a reduction in the
value of the shares you own because of their ineffective voting power.
ITEM 13. CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS AND DIRECTOR
INDEPENDENCE.
Although we have not adopted formal procedures for the review, approval or
ratification of transactions with related persons, we adhere to a general policy
that such transactions should only be entered into if they are on terms that, on
the whole, are no more favorable, or no less favorable, than those available
from unaffiliated third parties and their approval is in accordance with
applicable law. Such transactions require the approval of our board of
directors.
36
Our majority shareholder, George Adams, Sr., is entitled to royalty
payments of the sale of our products. During 2010, Mr. Adams voluntarily
assigned $25,860 of royalty payments due to him to our President, Jeffrey Brain,
in recognition of the hard work Mr. Brain was doing for the Company. The amount
of this royalty assignment is included in the compensation table under Executive
Compensation as "Other Compensation" to Mr. Brain.
We lease our warehouse facility from Frederick Feck, a Director, for $3,000
per month, on a verbal month to month lease, which management believes is a fair
arrangement.
ITEM 14. PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTING FEES AND SERVICES.
INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS
The Company has renewed the engagement of HJ Associates & Consultants, LLP
to serve as the independent accounting firm responsible for auditing our
financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010.
(1) Audit Fees. During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010, the
aggregate fees billed by the Company's auditors, for services rendered for the
audit of our annual financial statements and the review of the financial
statements included in our quarterly reports on Form 10-Q and for services
provided in connection with the statutory and regulatory filings or engagements
for 2010, was $45,000. During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009, the
aggregate fees billed by the Company's auditors, for services rendered for the
audit of our annual financial statements and the review of the financial
statements included in our quarterly reports on Form 10-Q and for services
provided in connection with the statutory and regulatory filings or engagements
for 2009, was $31,592.
(2) Audit-Related Fees related to S-1 registration statement reviews during
the year ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, totaling $18,580 and $0 for
audit-related services other than as set forth in paragraph (1) above.
(3) Tax Fees. Our auditors provided tax preparation services of $1,120 and
$0 during the fiscal years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.
(4) All Other Fees. None.
(5) Audit Committee's Pre-Approval Policies and Procedures.
Effective May 6, 2003, the Securities and Exchange Commission adopted rules
that require that before Principal Accountants are engaged by us to render any
auditing or permitted non-audit related service, the engagement be:
* approved by our audit committee (which consists of our entire board of
directors); or
* entered into pursuant to pre-approval policies and procedures
established by the board of directors, provided the policies and
procedures are detailed as to the particular service, the board of
directors is informed of each service, and such policies and
procedures do not include delegation of the board of directors'
responsibilities to management.
The board of directors pre-approves all services provided by our
independent auditors. All of the above services and fees were reviewed and
approved by the board of directors either before or after the respective
services were rendered.
The board of directors has considered the nature and amount of fees billed
by our principal accountants and believes that the provision of services for
activities unrelated to the audit is compatible with maintaining our principal
accountants' independence.
During the 2009 and 2008 fiscal years, the Company used the following
pre-approval procedures related to the selection of our independent auditors and
the services they provide: unanimous consent of all directors via a board
resolution.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors of
Ciralight Global, Inc.
Irvine, California
We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Ciralight Global, Inc. as of
December 31, 2010 and 2009, and the related statements of operations,
stockholders' equity, and cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2010 and
for the period from February 26, 2009 (inception) to December 31, 2009. These
financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on
our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company
Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan
and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial
statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to
have, nor were we engaged to perform an audit of its internal control over
financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over
financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are
appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an
opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial
reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit includes examining,
on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the
financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant
estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial
statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis
for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of Ciralight Global, Inc. as of
December 31, 2010 and 2009, and the results of its operations and its cash flows
for the year ended December 31, 2010 and for the period from February 26, 2009
(inception) to December 31, 2009, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted
accounting principles.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
For the Year Ended December 31, 2010 and for the
period from February 26, 2009 (inception) to
December 31, 2010
1. Background and Basis of Presentation:
Ciralight Global, Inc. (the "Company") was incorporated in the State of Nevada
on February 26, 2009. The Company is in the business of designing, developing,
and distributing proprietary advanced day lighting systems for traditional
non-residential markets that benefit from natural lighting.
In April 2009, we entered into an Exchange of Stock for Assets Agreement with
Mr. George Adams, Sr. ("Adams Agreement") to acquire certain assets including,
but not limited to, a U.S. patent, patent applications pending in Canada,
Europe, Mexico and the United States, artwork, trademarks, equipment, furniture,
databases, technical drawings, promotional materials, trade names and inventory
parts and marketing rights related to the Suntracker One(TM) and Suntracker
Two(TM) daylighting products previously owned and distributed by Ciralight,
Inc., a Utah corporation, such assets having been foreclosed on by Mr. Adams,
who was the secured creditor of Ciralight, Inc. Ciralight, Inc. is a predecessor
to the Company, although we have no affiliation, contractual or otherwise, with
Ciralight, Inc. or any of its employees, officers or directors.
Ciralight, Inc., the company whose assets were foreclosed on by Mr. Adams, was
also in the business of designing, developing, and distributing proprietary
advanced day lighting systems for traditional non-residential markets that
benefit from natural lighting. Ciralight, Inc. ceased operations on March 14,
2009, following the foreclosure by Mr. Adams. Since the acquisition of the
assets was through a foreclosure, the former company and its officers remain
liable for the Ciralight Inc.'s debts and the Company has no financial
responsibility for those debts. None of the employees or management of Ciralight
Inc. are involved in the Company. The business operations of our Company are
located in Irvine, California and the Company operates with four employees, the
Chief Executive Officer, the Chief Financial Officer / Chief Operations Officer,
a warehouse manager and an executive assistant.
In April 2009, we acquired all of the above described assets from Mr. Adams,
except for the U.S. patent and the patent applications pending in Canada,
Europe, Mexico and the United States, in exchange for 3,200,000 shares of our
common stock and 1,000,000 shares of our Series A Preferred Stock. On December
15, 2009, we acquired the U.S. patent and patent applications pending in Canada,
Europe, Mexico and the United States from Mr. Adams in exchange for the issuance
by us of an additional 400,000 shares of our common stock and a convertible
promissory note in the amount of $250,000. The note is convertible into shares
of our common stock at a conversion rate of one share per $.25 of outstanding
principal and interest. As a result of this transaction, Mr. Adams is our
largest shareholder. Aside from our U.S. patent and our four pending patent
applications, we have no other patent rights.
In order to provide working capital, Ciralight Global, Inc. sold common stock
through a private placement that raised $1,300,000 with the sale of 5,200,000
shares at a price of $0.25 per share from April 30, 2009 and January 15, 2010.
During the third and fourth quarters of 2010, the Company sold common stock
through a private placement that raised $222,000 with the sale of 444,000 shares
at a price of $0.50 per share.
Reclassifications
Certain reclassifications have been made to prior year income statement amounts
to conform to the current year presentation.
2. Liquidity and Operations:
The Company had net losses of $1,034,416 and $820,289, for the year ended
December 31, 2010 and for the period from February 26, 2009 (inception) to
December 31, 2009, respectively,

For the Year Ended December 31, 2010 and for the
period from February 26, 2009 (inception) to
December 31, 2010
2. Liquidity and Operations: (continued)
As of December 31, 2010, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of
approximately $203,000. In addition, the Company had accounts receivable of
approximately $149,000, inventory on hand at a cost valuation of approximately
$228,000, with a market valuation of over $475,000, all fully paid for, and
accounts payable of approximately $211,000. As of March 15, 2011, with orders
for over 700 units scheduled to be shipped during the next six months, the
Company is confident that it has sufficient liquidity for the next twelve
months.
3. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies:
Concentration of Cash Risk
The Company maintains its cash accounts primarily with banks located in Utah.
The total cash balances are insured by the FDIC up to $250,000 per bank. At
times, the amount of the Company's cash and cash equivalent exceeds the balance
insured by the FDIC.
Accounts Receivable - The Company's accounts receivable are unsecured and the
Company is at risk to the extent such amounts become uncollectible. Management
continually monitors accounts receivable balances and provides for an allowance
for doubtful accounts at the time collection becomes questionable based on
payment history or age of the receivable. The Company sells products and
services generally on terms of receiving a 50% deposit prior to shipment and the
remaining 50% within 21 days of date of shipment. The Company charges nominal
financing fees on late payments. Accounts receivable are charged to the
allowance for bad debts when the Company has exhausted all reasonable means of
collection. At December 31, 2010, management deemed that all accounts receivable
were fully collectible and that no bad debt reserve was required.
Inventory - Inventory consists of finished units, parts and packaging materials
and is stated at lower of historical cost or current cost. Management will
establish a reserve for damaged and discontinued inventory when determined
necessary. At December 31, 2010 no reserve was required.
Property and Equipment - Property and equipment are stated at historical cost,
which consists of the net book value of the assets carried on the prior
company's books. Depreciation is computed over the estimated useful lives of the
assets using the straight-line method generally over a 3- to 5-year period.
Leasehold improvements will be amortized on the straight-line method over the
life of the related lease. Expenditures for ordinary maintenance and repairs are
charged to expense as incurred. Upon retirement or disposal of assets, the cost
and accumulated depreciation are eliminated from the account and any gain or
loss is reflected in the statement of operations. Depreciation expense for
property and equipment is recorded as either cost of goods sold or general and
administrative expense, depending on the use of the assets.
Stock Offering Costs - During 2009 and 2010, the Company recorded the
organizational costs associated with the private placement offering as
additional paid in capital and expensed the costs associated with taking the
company public.
Impairment of Long Lived Assets - The Company evaluates its long-lived assets
for impairment, in accordance with FASB ASC 360-10, when events or changes in
circumstances indicate that the related carrying amount may not be recoverable.
Impairment is considered to exist if the total estimated future cash flow on an
undiscounted basis is less than the carrying amount of the related assets. An
impairment loss is measured and recorded based on the discounted estimated
future cash flows. Changes in significant assumptions underlying future cash
flow estimates or fair values of assets may have a material effect on the
Company's financial position and results of operations. No such impairment was
indicated at December 31, 2010.

For the Year Ended December 31, 2010 and for the
period from February 26, 2009 (inception) to
December 31, 2010
3. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies: (continued)
Shipping and Handling Costs - The Company includes shipping and handling costs
that are billed to our customers in revenue and the actual costs incurred for
shipping and handling are included in costs of goods sold in accordance with the
provisions of FASB ASC 605-45-45-20. The related costs are considered necessary
to complete the revenue cycle.
Revenue Recognition - The Company recognizes revenue from product sales when
persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, shipment has occurred, the
seller's price to the buyer is fixed or determinable and collectability is
reasonably assured.
Warranty Costs - Commencing April 1, 2009, the Company provided a five-year
warranty covering the labor and materials associated with its installations.
Effective September 1, 2009, the Company changed the coverage to ten years in
the U.S. The Company's "advanced skylights" are warranted by the manufacturer
for 10 years, generally. The Company (at its option) will repair, replace or
give credit for the original purchase price on any of its products or parts. An
accrual for a loss contingency has been made, since warranty expenses to date
have been consistent and a reasonable estimate of future expenses can be made,
in accordance with FASB ASC 460-10-50-8 (c)).
Changes in the liability for product warranty were as follows:

3. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies: (continued)
The Adams Agreement described in Note 1 above, also granted Mr. Adams a royalty
fee of $20.00 for each Suntracker One(TM) and Suntracker Two(TM) unit or any
future units that are based on the patent rights we acquired from him. The
maximum royalty fees payable under the Adams Agreement is $2,000,000 based on
the sale of 100,000 units. At December 31, 2010, accrued royalties totaled
$18,249.
General and Administrative Expenses - General and administrative expenses are
expensed as incurred. These expenses were $916,870 and $799,794, respectively,
for the year ended December 31, 2010 and for the period from February 26, 2009
(inception) to December 31, 2009 and consisted of the following:

-------- --------
Total General & Administrative Expenses $916,501 $799,794
======== ========
Concentrations of Credit Risk - Credit risk represents the accounting loss that
would be recognized at the reporting date if counterparties failed completely to
perform as contracted. Concentrations of credit risk (whether on or off balance
sheet) that arise from financial instruments exist for groups of customers or
counterparties when they have similar economic characteristics that would cause
their ability to meet contractual obligations to be similarly affected by
changes in economic or other conditions.
Financial instruments potentially subjecting the Company to concentrations of
credit risk consist principally of accounts receivable. As of December 31, 2010,
two distributors had balances representing 22% or more of the Company's accounts
receivable.
Use of Estimates - The preparation of the financial statements in conformity
with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America
requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported
amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and
liabilities at the date of the balance sheet and the reported amounts of revenue
and expenses during the reporting period. Significant estimates include the
Company's debt discount, and share-based compensation expense. Actual results
could differ from these estimates.

For the Year Ended December 31, 2010 and for the
period from February 26, 2009 (inception) to
December 31, 2010
3. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies: (continued)
Stock-Based Compensation - The Company accounts for stock-based compensation
under the provisions of FASB ASC 718 (Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 123 (revised 2004), "SHARE-BASED PAYMENT"), which requires the
Company to measure the stock-based compensation costs of share-based
compensation arrangements based on the grant date fair value and generally
recognizes the costs in the financial statements over the employee's requisite
service period. Stock-based compensation expense for all stock-based
compensation awards granted was based on the grant date fair value estimated in
accordance with the provisions of FASB ASC 718.
The Company measures compensation expense for its non-employee stock-based
compensation under FASB ASC 505-10 and 50, "Accounting for Equity Instruments
that are Issued to Other Than Employees for Acquiring, or in Conjunction with
Selling, Goods or Services". The fair value of the option issued is used to
measure the transaction, as this is more reliable than the fair value of the
services received. The fair value is measured at the value of the Company's
common stock on the date that the commitment for performance by the counterparty
has been reached or the counterparty's performance is complete. The fair value
of the equity instrument is charged directly to compensation expense and
additional paid-in capital.
The Company recognizes stock compensation expense by recording employee
stock-based compensation using the fair value recognition provisions of
Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 718 ("ASC 718") using the
modified prospective transition method, and recording non-employee stock-based
compensation expense in accordance with ASC Topic 505.
Income Taxes - The Company accounts for its income taxes under the provisions of
FASB-ASC-10 "Accounting for Income Taxes." This statement requires the use of
the asset and liability method of accounting for deferred income taxes. Deferred
income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the
carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and
the amounts used for income tax reporting purposes, at the applicable enacted
tax rates. The Company provides a valuation allowance against its deferred tax
assets when the future realizability of the assets is no longer considered to be
more likely than not.
Convertible Notes Payable - The Company accounts for its convertible notes
payable under the provisions of FASB ASC 470 (Staff Position No. APB 14-1
"Accounting for Convertible Debt Instruments that may be Settled in Cash upon
Conversion (including partial cash settlement"). FASB ASC 470 clarifies that
convertible debt instruments that may be settled in cash upon conversion
(including partial cash settlement) are not addressed by FASB ASC 470-20-65-1
(paragraph 12 of APB Opinion No. 14, "Accounting for Convertible Debt and Debt
Issued with Stock Purchase Warrants"). Additionally, FASB ASC 470 specifies that
issuers of such instruments should separately account for the liability and
equity components in a manner that will reflect the entity's nonconvertible debt
borrowing rate when interest cost is recognized in subsequent periods.
The Company accounts for uncertain tax positions in accordance with FASB ASC
740-10, 30 and 270, "Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes." The
application of income tax law is inherently complex. As such, the Company is
required to make certain assumptions and judgments regarding its income tax
positions and the likelihood whether such tax positions would be sustained if
challenged. Interest and penalties related to uncertain tax provisions are
recorded as a component of the provision for income taxes. Interpretations and
guidance surrounding income tax laws and regulations change over time. As such,
changes in the Company's assumptions and judgments can materially affect amounts
recognized in the Company's consolidated balance sheets and statement of
operations.

On December 30, 2010, the Company's Board of Directors approved and adopted the
Company's 2010 Employee and Consultant Stock Incentive Plan ("Plan") and

motivate eligible persons whose present and potential contributions are
important to the success of the Company by offering them an opportunity to
participate in the Company's future performance through awards of Options,
Restricted Stock and Stock Bonuses.
On December 30, 2010, the Board of Directors granted a total of 605,000 options
at an exercise price of $.425 per share, exercisable over five years from the

significant are, expected stock price volatility, the expected pre-vesting
forfeiture rate and the expected option term (the amount of time from the grant
date until the options are exercised or expire). Since the Company's stock is
not yet trading nor does it have an extended history of stock prices or
volatility, expected volatility and average contractual life variables were
estimated utilizing a weighted average of comparable published volatilities and
contractual lives based on industry comparables. Expected pre-vesting

7. Commitments and Contingencies:
Operating Leases -- The Company has not entered into any long term leases. The
Company is currently leasing approximately 3,500 square feet of warehouse space
in Corona, California, on a verbal month to month basis from one of our
Directors, Frederick Feck. Commencing October 1, 2009, the Company paid $3,000
per month for the Corona, California warehouse space. For business office space,
the Company has chosen to share space with iCapital to reduce its administrative
cost by sharing costs, avoiding setup costs for phones, internet, furnishings,
etc as well as office staffing. Commencing May 1, 2009, the Company paid $3,000
per month for the office space which is located in Irvine, California on a
verbal month to month lease. Commencing April 1, 2010, we began renting an
executive suite in Corona, California for $150 a month on a month to month basis
and terminated the arrangement and rental payments for the executive offices in
Irvine, California.
In February 2010, we entered into an eighteen month services agreement with a
construction data company regarding Smart BIM; the construction and maintenance
of databases relating to customers, sales leads and marketing strategies. As a
result of the agreement, commencing April 1, 2010, we will pay $1,140 per month
for a period of eighteen months.
The Company, as of December 31, 2010 has no additional financial commitments
that would represent long term commitments on behalf of the Company.

Capital Leases - The Company has not entered into any kind of capital leases for
furnishings, equipment or for any other purposes.
Prepaid Inventory - Our agreements with several of our inventory component
suppliers generally provide that between 50% and 60% of the purchase order price

completion and shipment of the order, normally within 30 days. Purchase order
prepaid deposits are included in the balance sheet as Prepaid expenses and other
current assets. As of December 31, 2010, purchase order prepaid deposits totaled
approximately $43,000 with three of our major suppliers.
8. Related Party Transactions:
During fiscal 2009, the Company acquired assets through the Adams Agreement
described in Note 1, above. Mr. Adams is considered a related party, since he
was the largest secured creditor of Ciralight Inc., the company from which he
acquired certain assets in foreclosure and subsequently sold the assets to the
Company, and he is the largest shareholder in the Company. These assets were
valued at their predecessor values. As described in Note 4 above, the Company
borrowed money from Terry Adams, the son of Mr. George Adams, Sr., in exchange
for a Convertible Promissory Note.
As described in Note 4, above, on March 31, 2010, the Company holds a note
receivable from the President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company,
Randall Letcavage.
As described in Note 7, above, the Company leases warehouse space from one of
our directors, Frederick Feck and a portion of our CEO, Jeffrey Brain's,
residence is utilized as an office. The Company has recorded contributed capital
of $6,000 relating to the value of the use of the residence for the benefit of
the Company for the year ended December 31, 2010.
In January 2010, the Company entered into a non-exclusive distributorship
agreement with Globalight Energy Solutions LLC, which is partly owned by Smokey
Robinson, the legendary entertainer, Randall Letcavage, our Chief Executive
Officer, Jeffrey Brain, our Chief Financial Officer and Chief Operating Officer,
and some other persons not associated with the Company. Smokey Robinson is the
single largest shareholder in the distribution company and has agreed to assist
the Company in promotions and media relations to promote the company products.
Randall Letcavage and Jeff Brain have had a business relationship with Smokey
Robinson and secured his participation in the distribution company to help
promote products. The value of having an icon celebrity involved is countless
dollars in potential free media and promotions and, therefore, it was deemed a
valuable arrangement for the Company. The distribution company will be a
minority certified company that can assist in securing certain contracts. The
distribution company will be non-exclusive and operate under the same terms,
conditions and pricing as the other distribution companies and, therefore, will
not receive any beneficial or special treatment over our other dealers or
distributors.
In January 2010, we entered into a nonexclusive distributorship agreement with
Chaparral Green Energy Solutions, LLC, an entity in which our securities
attorney, David E. Wise, Esq., owns a 50% equity interest. This non-exclusive
dealer agreement with the Company is to sell products in Texas and is on the
same terms, conditions and pricing as other dealer agreements. Thus, Mr. Wise's
company will not receive any beneficial or special treatment over our other

Solutions, LLC are the same as for the other dealer and distributorship
agreements. Therefore, these two agreements do not contain preferential or more
favorable terms or conditions than agreements with our other dealers or
distributors, except for the fact that the Company did not require Globalight
Energy Solutions, LLC to pay the standard distributorship fee of $15,000. In
lieu of Globalight Energy Solutions, LLC paying the standard distributorship fee
of $15,000, Smokey Robinson agreed to use his name, contacts and likeness to
promote the Company products. Our board of directors believes that the value to
the Company of Mr. Robinson's promotion of our products is greater than the
$15,000 distributorship fee to the Company.
In January 2010, we also entered into nonexclusive dealer agreements with both
Green Tech Design-Build, Inc., an entity located in Salt lake City, Utah, and
Eco-Smart, Inc., an entity located in Sarasota, Florida. In addition, we entered
into an exclusive international distribution agreement with Zeev Shimon & Sons,
Ltd., an entity located in Petah-Tikva, Israel.
On December 30,2010, Terry Adams advanced the Company $200,000 for short term
working capital purposes, as represented by the advances payable-related party
amount of $200,000 at December 31, 2010. The Company repaid the $200,000 advance
to Terry Adams on January 5, 2011.
9. Share Based Compensation
In January 2010, 352,941 common stock shares at $.25 per share, with an
aggregate value of $88,235, were issued as compensation and for services
rendered in order to satisfy the anti-dilution rights. The Chief Executive
Officer and Chief Financial Officer of the Company were each due $30,000 in
aggregate compensation resulting from $3,000 per month accrued for each of them
from March through December 2009. In addition, the Chief Financial Officer was
due additional compensation of $29,876 for the period from February 26, 2009
(inception) to December 31, 2009. Our board of directors granted anti-dilution
rights to Jeffrey Brain, iCapital Finance, Inc. (a company owned by Randall
Letcavage, our former Chief Executive Officer, and his business partner,
Rosemary Nguyen), Randall Letcavage and David E. Wise, our securities counsel.
These anti-dilution rights entitled Jeffrey Brain, iCapital Finance, Inc.,
Randall Letcavage and David E. Wise to acquire additional shares of our common
stock at $.25 per share in order to maintain their original percentage ownership
in the our common stock. The rights entitled the holders to acquire additional
shares as a result of the private offering conducted by the Company. The
anti-dilution rights agreement entitled the holders to acquire their additional
shares prior to March 31, 2010, at the same share price of $.25 that subscribers
were purchasing stock for in the private offering. The holders, other than
iCapital Finance, exercised their rights during December 2009.
10. Income Taxes:
Deferred taxes are provided on a liability method whereby deferred tax assets
are recognized for deductible temporary differences and operating loss and tax
credit carryforwards and deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable
temporary differences. Temporary differences are the differences between the
reported amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax bases. Deferred tax
assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management,
it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets
will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the
effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment.

The income tax provision differs from the amount of income tax determined by
applying the U.S. federal income tax rate to pretax income from continuing
operations for the year ended December 31, 2010 and for the period from February

========== ==========
At December 31, 2010, the Company had net operating loss carryforwards of
approximately $1,564,100 that may be offset against future taxable income from
the year 2011 through 2030. No tax benefit has been reported in the March 31,
2010 or December 31, 2009 consolidated financial statements, since the potential
tax benefit is offset by a valuation allowance of the same amount.
Due to the change in ownership provisions of the Tax Reform Act of 1986, net
operating loss carryforwards for Federal income tax reporting purposes are
subject to annual limitations. Should a change in ownership occur, net operating
loss carryforwards may be limited as to use in future years.
The Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") has issued Financial
Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes - an
Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109 ("FIN 48"). FIN 48 clarifies the
accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise's
financial statements in accordance with FASB Statement No. 109, Accounting for
Income Taxes. FIN 48 requires a company to determine whether it is more likely
than not that a tax position will be sustained upon examination based upon the
technical merits of the position. If the more-like1y-than-not threshold is met,
a company must measure the tax position to determine the amount to recognize in
the financial statements. As a result of the implementation of FIN 48, the
Company performed a review of its material tax positions in accordance with
recognition and measurement standards established by FIN 48. At the adoption
date of April 1, 2009, the Company had no unrecognized tax benefit which would
affect the effective tax rate if recognized.

11. Legal Matters:
On October 15, 2009, we filed a lawsuit in the Superior Court of the State of
California for the County of Orange, Central Justice Center (Case No. 30-2009,
00314998) ("Complaint") against Jacque Stevens, Rex Miller, Greg Schmalz, A-1
Daylighting, Consultech, Daylight Specialist and DOES 1-25. The Complaint
includes five causes of action by us against the defendants: Tortious
Interference with Contract, Commercial Disparagement, Conspiracy, Breach of
Contract, Unfair Business Practices and Libel. The Complaint alleges that we
entered into a nondisclosure agreement as part of an agreement to work toward
completing a joint venture/private label of our solar lighting systems with
Firestone Building Products and that defendants attempted to interfere with our
business relationship with Firestone Building Products by disparaging our
products (misrepresentations regarding prior sales, installations and quality of
service and that we provided or substituted defective or improper parts in our
products). We are seeking general, special and punitive or exemplary damages and
injunctive relief against the defendants.
While some of the defendants have answered the Complaint, none of them has filed
a counterclaim against us in this case. We are in settlement negotiations with
various defendants in this case. Recently, we dismissed Defendant Greg Schmaltz
from the case as a result of a settlement agreement with Defendant Schmaltz
pursuant to which we released him from any liability to us and he, in turn,
released us from any liability to him or his company, First Team Marketing and
Communications. As a result of this settlement agreement, Defendant Schmalz
dismissed Lawsuits A and B described below. We do not believe we have any legal
exposure in this case.
On January 14, 2010, we were served with process in two lawsuits, which we
deemed to be frivolous. Both of these lawsuits were filed in the Superior Court
of the State of California for the County of Orange, Central Justice Center
(Case No. 30-2010, 00334139) ("Lawsuit A"). Lawsuit A is styled First Team
Marketing and Communications vs. Ciralight Global, Inc., Ciralight, Inc. and
DOES 1-25. Lawsuit A is a suit on an open book account in the amount of
approximately $62,000. We believe that this suit should have been brought
against Ciralight, Inc., a defunct corporation, with whom we have no affiliation
or relationship. The second of these lawsuits (Case No. 30-2010, 003344479)
("Lawsuit B") is styled Greg Schmalz Consultants LLC vs. Ciralight Global, Inc.,
Ciralight, Inc. and DOES 1-25. Lawsuit B is a suit on an open book account in
the amount of approximately $34,000. As discussed above, Lawsuits A and B have
been dismissed.
12. Change in Officers and Directors:
On March 18, 2010, Randall Letcavage resigned as Chief Executive Officer,
President and a director of the Company in order to continue and concentrate on
his other businesses. Going forward, Mr. Letcavage will be available to assist
and contribute to the Company in a less demanding role.
On March 19, 2010, a majority of Company directors resolved to accept Randall
Letcavage's resignation as of March 18, 2010, appointed Jeffrey Brain to serve
as the Company's Chief Executive Officer and President in addition to his
existing positions of Chief Operating officer and Chief Financial Officer and
appointed Terry Adams a member of the Board of Directors of the Company at such
time as the Company obtains Director and Officer liability insurance. As of
March 23, 2009, Terry Adams is not a Director, since the insurance coverage has
not been obtained
