Trends and Uncertainties. We are no longer conducting any material
operations since the sale of our wholly owned subsidiary on October 2,
2006. We have not yet determined what operations, if any, we intend to
pursue.
Investing Activities. For the year ended December 31, 2010 and 2009,
Proguard Acquisition did not pursue any financing activities.
Financing Activities. For the year ended December 31, 2010, Proguard
Acquisition borrowed $13,037 from related parties and Proguard
Acquisition received $5,000 from a related party to repay funds
previously advanced. As a result, Proguard Acquisition had net cash
provided by financing activities of $18,037.
For the year ended December 31, 2009, Proguard Acquisition received
funds from the issuance of common stock of $7,500. As a result,
Proguard Acquisition had net cash provided by financing activities of
$7,500.
Results of Operations. For the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009,
we did not receive any revenues from continuing operations. We earned
interest income of $185 for the year ended December 31, 2010 compared
to $5,350 for the year ended December 31, 2009.
For the year ended December 31, 2010, we had a loss from continuing
operations of $(72,862) compared to $(225,168) for the year ended
December 31, 2009.
General and administrative expenses for the year ended December 31,
2010 were $73,047 compared to $230,518 for the prior year. These
expenses principally consisted of professional and consulting fees, and
office expense. The increase in general and administrative expenses
was largely due to a bad debt.
As a result, we incurred a net loss of $(72,862) for the year ended
December 31, 2010 compared to net loss of $(225,168) for the year ended
December 31, 2009.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Board of Directors and Shareholders
Proguard Acquisition Corp.
Ft. Lauderdale, Florida
We have audited the balance sheets of Proguard Acquisition Corp. as of
December 31, 2010 and 2009, and the accompanying related statements of
operations, changes in stockholders' equity and cash flows for the
years ended December 31, 2010 and 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. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An
audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and
significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the
overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits
provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present
fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Proguard
Acquisition Corp. as of December 31, 2010 and 2009 and the results of
its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended, in
conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United
States of America.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that
the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1
to the financial statements, the Company has an accumulated deficit as
of December 31, 2010 and no source of revenue, which raises substantial
doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management's
plans concerning these matters are also described in Note 1. The
financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result
from the outcome of this uncertainty.

PROGUARD ACQUISITION CORP.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2010 AND 2009
NOTE 1. ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Organization and Nature of Operations.
The accompanying financial statements present the accounts of Proguard
Acquisition Corp. (the Company), formed in Florida in June 2004.
Cash and Cash Equivalents.
The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original
maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
Net Income (Loss) Per Common Share.
Basic earnings per share are calculated by dividing income available to
stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares
outstanding during each period. Diluted earnings per share are
computed using the weighted average number of common and dilutive
common share equivalents outstanding during the period. Dilutive
common share equivalents consist of shares issuable upon conversion of
preferred shares, exercise of stock options and warrants (calculated
using the reverse treasury stock method). The dilutive common shares
equivalents, including convertible notes, preferred stock and warrants,
are not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share,
because the inclusion would be anti-dilutive.
Income Taxes.
Income taxes are accounted for using an asset and liability approach
that requires the recognition of deferred tax asset and liabilities for
the expected future tax consequences of events that have been
recognized in the Company's financial statements or tax returns. In
estimating future tax consequences, the Company generally considers all
expected future events other than changes in the tax law or rates. A
valuation allowance is recorded when it is deemed more likely than not
that a deferred tax asset will be not realized.
Concentrations.
The Company maintains cash in financial institutions insured by the
Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC") up to $250,000.
14
Use of Estimates.
The preparation of 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 amounts
reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual
results could differ from those estimates.
Share-Based Payments.
Effective January 1, 2006, the Company has fully adopted the provisions
of ASC Topic 718 "Compensation - Stock Compensation" and related
interpretations. As such, compensation amounts, if any, are amortized
over the respective vesting periods of the option grant.
Going Concern.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that
the Company will continue as a going concern which contemplates the
realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal
course of business. The amounts of assets and liabilities in the
financial statements do not purport to represent realizable or
settlement values. However, the Company has incurred an operating
loss. Such loss may impair its ability to obtain additional financing.
This factor raises substantial doubt about the Company's ability to
continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include
any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
The Company has met its historical working capital requirements from
sale of capital shares. However, there can be no assurance that such
financial support shall be ongoing or available on terms or conditions
acceptable to the Company.
15
Recent Accounting Pronouncements.
In May 2009, the FASB issued an accounting standard update, which
establishes the accounting for and disclosures of subsequent events. The
Company adopted this accounting standard update during the three months
ended June 30, 2009. The adoption of this accounting standard update did
not have material impact on the Company's consolidated financial
statements.
In June 2009, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2009-01
("ASU 2009-01"), which establishes the FASB Accounting Standards
CodificationTM as the source of authoritative U.S. GAAP recognized by the
FASB to be applied by nongovernmental entities. The Company adopted ASU
2009-01 during the three months ended September 30, 2009 and its adoption
did not have any impact on the Company's consolidated financial
statements.
Accounting Standards Codification
In June 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued
Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 1-5, FASB Accounting Standards
Codification ("ASC 105"). The statement confirmed that the FASB
Accounting Standards Codification (the "Codification") is the single
official source of authoritative GAAP (other than guidance issued by the
SEC), superseding existing FASB, American Institute of Certified Public
Accountants, Emerging Issues Task Force, and related literature. The
Codification does not change GAAP. Instead, it introduces a new
structure that is organized in an easily accessible, user-friendly online
research.
In May 2009, the FASB issued ASC 855, Subsequent Events ("ASC 855"),
which established the principles and requirements for the recognition and
disclosure of events or transactions occurring after the balance sheet
date in the financial statements. In particular, ASC 855: (i) identifies
the period after the balance sheet date during which management of the
Company should evaluate events or transactions that may occur for
potential recognition or disclosure in the financial statements, (ii)
identifies the circumstances under which the Company should recognize
events or transactions occurring after the balance sheet date in its
financial statements and (iii) requires certain expanded disclosures in
the financial statements about events or transactions that occurred after
the balance sheet date. ASC 855 is effective for the Company's financial
statements for the period beginning on April 1, 2009. The adoption of
ASC 855 had no effect on the Company's financial condition or results of
operations.
In August 2009, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No.
2009-05, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (Topic 820) - Measuring
Liabilities at Fair Value. This update provides clarification for the
fair value measurement of liabilities in circumstances in which a quoted
price in an active market for an identical liability is not available.
This update is effect for interim periods beginning after August 28,
2009. The Company does not expect the adoption of this standard to have
a material effect on its financial position or results of operations.
16
In January 2010, the FASB issued accounting standard update ("ASU") No.
2010-06, "Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements" an
amendment to ASC Topic 820, "Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures".
This amendment requires an entity to: (i) disclose separately the
amounts of significant transfers in and out of Level 1 and Level 2 fair
value measurements and describe the reasons for the transfers and (ii)
present separate information for Level 3 activity pertaining to gross
purchases, sales, issuances and settlements. ASU No. 2010-06 is
effective for the Company for interim and annual reporting beginning
after December 15, 2009, with one new disclosure effective after December
15, 2010. The adoption of ASU No. 2010-06 did not have a material impact
on the results of operations and financial condition.
In February 2010, the FASB issued an amendment to the accounting
standards relating to the accounting for, and disclosure of, subsequent
events in an entity's consolidated financial statements. This standard
amends the authoritative guidance for subsequent events that were
previously issued and among other things exempt Securities and Exchange
Commission registrants from the requirement to disclose the date through
which it has evaluated subsequent events for either original or restated
financial statements. This standard does not apply to subsequent events
or transactions that are within the scope of other applicable GAAP that
provides different guidance on the accounting treatment for subsequent
events or transactions. The adoption of this standard did not have a
material impact on the Company's financial statements.
NOTE 2. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
During the year ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, the Company paid an
affiliated entity $10,050 and $29,800, respectively, in rent,
administration and taxes.
The Company borrowed funds during the year from a company with common
shareholders.
NOTE 3. DUE TO, FROM AFFILIATES
As of December 31, 2009, due from affiliates consists of $6,189 due
from affiliates, including accrued interest of $1,189. The note is
payable on demand and bears interest at 8% per annum. The note was
repaid during the current year.
During the year, the Company borrowed money from certain affiliates.
The loans are due on demand and do not bear any interest.
NOTE 4. INCOME TAXES
The Company accounts for income taxes under ASC 740, which requires use
of the liability method. ASC 740 provides that deferred tax assets and
liabilities are recorded based on the differences between the tax bases
of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts for financial
reporting purposes, referred to as temporary differences.
17
Deferred tax assets and liabilities at the end of each period are
determined using the currently enacted tax rates applied to taxable
income in the periods in which the deferred tax assets and liabilities
are expected to be settled or realized.
The income tax expense (benefit) differs from the amount computed by
applying the U.S. federal income tax rate to net income (loss) before
income taxes for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, as shown:
2010 2009
------ ------
Tax expense (benefit) at the federal
statutory rate $(25,500) $(78,750)
State taxes, net of federal benefit (2,550) (8,325)
Increase (decrease) in valuation allowance 28,050 87,075
-------- -------
Tax expense (benefit) $ - $ -
======== =======
The components of the deferred tax asset and deferred tax liability at
December 31, 2010 and 2009 are as follows:
2010 2009
------ ------
Deferred tax asset:
Net operating loss
carry forwards $ 293,000 $ 265,000
Valuation allowance (293,000) (265,000)
--------- ---------
$ - $ -
========= =========
As of December 31, 2010, the Company has a net operating loss
carryforward of approximately $761,000. This loss will be available to
offset future taxable income. If not used, this carryforward will
expire through 2030 subject to IRS Code Section 382 limits.
NOTE 6. COMMON STOCK
In April 2005, the Company filed a Form SB-2 registration statement
offering 800,000 units at $1.00 per unit. Each unit consists of one
common share and one warrant to purchase one common share at $1.75 per
share. The warrants are exercisable for 36 months and may be called at
$.01 per warrant after 24 months from the date of the prospectus. As of
December 31, 2006, the Company has sold 360,400 units for a total of
$360,400. Warrants to purchase 60,000 common shares for a total
consideration of $105,000 were exercised during the year ended December
31, 2006.
During the quarter ended March 31, 2007, 11,150 warrants were exercised
at a price of $1.75 per warrant and converted into 11,150 shares of
common stock for a total price of $19,513.
18
No warrants were exercised during the years ended December 31, 2010 and
December 31, 2009. There are no warrants outstanding as of this date.
Stock based Compensation Expenses 2009: In conjunction with the stock
purchases during the year ended December 31, 2009, pursuant to
accounting rules and principles applicable to stock sales in related
party transactions, the Company recorded a $19,000 non-cash increase in
its "additional paid in capital" account and recorded non-cash
transaction expense for the same amount. The accounting rules require
that in related party transactions, a non-cash expense be recorded for
the difference between "fair value" (as defined in the rules) and the

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures:
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules
13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act that are designed to
insure that information required to be disclosed in the reports we file
or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and
reported within the periods specified in the Securities and Exchange
Commission's rules and forms and that such information is accumulated
and communicated to our management, including our CEO and CFO, or the
persons performing similar functions, to allow timely decisions
regarding required disclosure.
Under the supervision and with the participation of our CEO and CFO, or
the persons performing similar functions, our management has evaluated
the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the
end of the period covered by this annual report. Based on that
evaluation, our CEO and CFO, or the persons performing similar
functions, concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were
effective as of December 31, 2010.
Management's Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial
Reporting:
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate
internal control over financial reporting. Our internal control over
financial reporting is the process designed by and under the
supervision of our CEO and CFO, or the persons performing similar
functions, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of
our financial reporting and the preparation of our financial statements
for external reporting in accordance with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America. Management has
evaluated the effectiveness of our internal control over financial
reporting using the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring
Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control
over Financial Reporting - Guidance for Smaller Public Companies.
Under the supervision and with the participation of our CEO and CFO, or
the persons performing similar functions, our management has assessed
the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as
of December 31, 2010, and concluded that it is effective.
This annual report does not include an attestation report of the
registrant's registered public accounting firm regarding internal
control over financial reporting. Management's report was not subject
to attestation by the registrant's registered public accounting firm
20
pursuant to temporary rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission
that permit the registrant to provide only management's report in this
annual report.
Evaluation of Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting:
Under the supervision and with the participation of our CEO and CFO, or
those persons performing similar functions, our management has
evaluated changes in our internal controls over financial reporting
that occurred during the fourth quarter of 2010. Based on that
evaluation, our CEO and CFO, or those persons performing similar
functions, did not identify any change in our internal control over
financial reporting that has materially affected, or is reasonably
likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial
reporting.
Important Considerations:
The effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures and our
internal control over financial reporting is subject to various
inherent limitations, including cost limitations, judgments used in
decision making, assumptions about the likelihood of future events, the
soundness of our systems, the possibility of human error, and the risk
of fraud. Moreover, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to
future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become
inadequate because of changes in conditions and the risk that the
degree of compliance with policies or procedures may deteriorate over
time. Because of these limitations, there can be no assurance that any
system of disclosure controls and procedures or internal control over
financial reporting will be successful in preventing all errors or
fraud or in making all material information known in a timely manner to
the appropriate levels of management.

Tax Fees. We did not incur any aggregate tax fees and expenses from
Sherb & Co., LLP for the 2010 and 2009 fiscal years for professional

All Other Fees. We incurred non-audit related fees of $0 and $0 from
