PART I
ITEM 1. BUSINESS
As used herein the terms Company, we, our, and us refer to Montana Mining Corp., its subsidiary, and its predecessor, unless context indicates otherwise.
Corporate History
Montana Mining Corp. was incorporated in Nevada on December 7, 1999, as Aswan Investments, Inc. to engage in any legal undertaking. On July 17, 2002, the corporations name was changed to Montana Mining Corp. to reflect the decision of management to enter into mineral exploration activities. After completing the first stages of an exploration program on an optioned property in the state of Montana, we were unable to indicate conclusively the existence of any economically recoverable mineralization. We therefore abandoned the purchase option and all exploration efforts in January of 2005. We have since been in the process of seeking out other business opportunities and have engaged in certain agreements, most notably our agreement to acquire Produced Water Solutions, Inc. (PWS) that did not materialize due primarily to our inability to attract sufficient funding.
On August 26, 2009, we assigned our interest in the share exchange agreement with PWS to Dobhai Ventures, Inc. (Dobhai) in exchange for a two and one half percent (2½%) royalty on all net revenue realized by Dobhai from PWS reverse osmosis and ultra-filtration technology through March 31, 2013 up to $1,000,000 and a cash payment of $135,000 payable within ten days of Dobhais acquisition of PWS. The transaction closed on June 30, 2010 and the cash component of the consideration was paid to us shortly thereafter.
On August 20, 2010, we entered into an agreement, as amended, with Park Capital Management, Inc. (Park) to acquire JBP S.R.L (JBP) as a wholly-owned subsidiary, in order to design, construct and operate a premiere destination resort to be known as ParkVida in the Dominican Republic. The agreement requires that we issue fifteen million two hundred and eighty-two thousand one hundred and twenty (15,282,120) shares of common stock and six million eight hundred and twenty-four thousand and three hundred (6,824,300) share purchase warrants to be exercised within ten years of the date of grant at an exercise price of $0.005 a share to the shareholders of Park. The agreement further requires that we pay a finders fee of one million five hundred and twenty-eight thousand two hundred and twelve (1,528,212) shares and six hundred and eighty-two thousand four hundred and thirty (682,430) share purchase warrants to be exercised within three years of the date of grant at an exercise price of $0.06 a share. The transaction is conditioned on the realization of certain milestones on or before closing the transaction, including our ability to fund no less than $717,619 at $0.05 per share. We have since completed a private placement of $767,019 and are now in the process of completing our due diligence inquiry. Proceeds of the private placement are being used primarily for the development of the project through a series of secured loans to JBP in anticipation of closing.
We have not closed the transaction with JBP though we do anticipate closing during the second quarter of 2011.
Our office is located at 1403 East 900 South, Salt Lake City, Utah, 84105, and our telephone number is (801) 582-9609. Our registered agent is the UPS Store #1650, 3395 S. Jones Boulevard, Las Vegas, Nevada, 89146.
The Company currently trades on the Over the Counter Bulletin Board under the symbol MMGC.

The Company
Our plan of operation over the next twelve to twenty four months is to design, construct and operate a premiere destination resort to be known as ParkVida that will be focused on mountain biking of all disciplines (i.e. downhill, cross-country, free ride, dirt jump, trials/street, and cyclocross) in addition to a host of other exciting activities.
ParkVida is located at the top of the Cordillera Central mountain range in the Dominican Republic. The 700 acre, former coffee plantation site, which sits next to a national park, is intended to offer 200 hotel rooms, some near the peak of the mountains, some as tree houses, some on the edge of the river that meanders through the site and some nestled into the natural landscape. The main adventure activities will be focused on downhill and cross-country mountain biking with a dedicated chairlift for the uphill return. Other intended activities will be zip lining, adventure rope courses, water slides, hiking, fishing, spa, mule riding, quad biking, cultural classes, eco tours and coffee growing experiences.
The target audience for ParkVida will be relatively varied given the variety of attractions and leisure components to be available. We anticipate a large element of crossovers from one target audience to another, each with their own particular buying and spending patterns. The core target audience is expected to be the mountain biking fraternity, which includes downhillers and free riders, enthusiasts, sport riders, trail riders, leisure/family riders and specialist groups. ParkVida will also offer facilities and services to an audience seeking value for money, as well as an eco adventure. The market for our audience is anticipated to range from international to local. Predominantly, we expect the international traveler to be from North America but it is also expected that, as the ParkVida experience is recognized, that there will be no limitations as to where the mountain biker will travel from, as it will be designed as a destination for bikers to learn and play in a warm climate year round. Our target audience is also expected to be wide reaching and will not necessarily include those who want to mountain bike, or even know how to mountain bike.
ParkVida intends to cater to the needs and requirements of the local Dominican market as well, so day visits or longer stays are likely from nearby cities, especially during the weekends. Activities planned for ParkVida will be sensitive to the environment during the planning, construction and operation phases in order to bring to life a vision guided by the principles of simple, regenerative, exciting design. ParkVida intends to be rooted in natures principles, integrated with the local community, the local economy and the natural environment itself through access to the mountains, the forest, the tranquility and the passion involved in adventure sports. From a marketing perspective, the overall objective is to identify and strategize the manner in which we convey the opening and ongoing operations of ParkVida. The message of adventure, lifestyle and destination will be included whilst educating our target audience about the overall products available. The tagline of Unplug, Recharge, Experience & Explore will be the key link to all things associated with ParkVida.
Our plan of operation anticipates the opening of ParkVida in the fourth quarter of 2012. Should we not complete the anticipated transaction with Park then our plan of operation will be to reengage in the process of considering business opportunities for merger or acquisition. Further, should we complete the acquisition of JBP we are not currently in a position to fund the development of ParkVida to completion and would have to rely on debt or equity financing to reach this objective. We can offer no assurance at this time that the requisite financing for ParkVida is available to us.

Selection of a Business
We would not restrict our consideration to any particular business or industry segment, and might consider, among others, finance, brokerage, insurance, transportation, communications, research and development, biotechnology, service, natural resources, manufacturing or high-technology. Management recognizes that the Companys inadequate financial resources limit the scope and number of suitable business venture candidates that might otherwise be available.
The decision to participate in a specific business opportunity would be made upon managements analysis of the quality of the other firms management and personnel, the anticipated acceptability of new products or marketing concepts, the merit of technological changes and numerous other factors which are difficult, if not impossible, to analyze through the application of any objective criteria. In many instances, it is anticipated that the historical operations of a specific venture may not necessarily be indicative of the potential for the future because of the necessity to substantially shift a marketing approach, expand operations, change product emphasis, change or substantially augment management, or make other changes. We would be dependent upon the management of a business opportunity to identify such problems and to implement, or be primarily responsible for the implementation of, required changes.
We would not acquire or merge with any company for which audited financial statements could not be obtained. Nonetheless, it may be anticipated that any opportunity in which we determine to participate would present certain risks to our shareholders. Risks might include the track record of managements effectiveness, failures to establish a consistent market for products or services, development stage, or to realize profits. Many more of these risks may not be adequately identified prior to the selection of a specific opportunity, and our shareholders must, therefore, depend on the ability of management to identify and evaluate such risks as such become evident.
Acquisition of Business
We intend to become a party to a merger, consolidation, reorganization, joint venture, franchise or licensing agreement with another corporation or entity. The Company may also purchase stock or assets of an existing business. On the consummation of a transaction, it is possible that our present management and shareholders would not be in control of the Company. In addition, our sole officer and director may, as part of the terms of any transaction, resign and be replaced by new officers and directors without a vote of the Companys shareholders.
The Company anticipates that any securities issued in any reorganization would be issued in reliance on exemptions from registration under applicable federal and state securities laws. In some circumstances, however, as a negotiated element of any transaction, the Company might agree to register securities either at the time the transaction is consummated, under certain conditions, or at a specified time thereafter. The issuance of substantial additional securities and their potential sale into any trading market would likely have a depressive effect on our stock price.
While the actual terms of a transaction to which the Company may be a party cannot be predicted, it may be expected that the parties to the business transaction would find it desirable to avoid the creation of a taxable event and thereby structure the acquisition in a so called tax-free reorganization under Section 368(a)(1) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the Code). In order to obtain tax-free treatment under the Code, it may be necessary for the owners of the acquired business to own 80% or more of the voting stock of the surviving entity. In such event, the shareholders of the Company would retain less than 20% of the issued and outstanding shares of the surviving entity, which could result in significant dilution in the equity of such shareholders.
5
In the event a merger or acquisition were to occur, our shareholders would in all likelihood hold a lesser percentage ownership interest in the Company following any merger or acquisition. The percentage ownership might be subject to significant reduction in the event we acquire a target company with substantial assets. Any merger or acquisition effected by the Company can be expected to have a significant substantial dilutive effect on the percentage of shares held by the Companys then shareholders.
Operation of Business after Acquisition
The Company's operation following a merger with or acquisition of a business would be dependent on the nature of the business and the interest acquired. We are unable to determine at this time whether the Company would be in control of the business or whether present management would be in control of the Company following the acquisition. We could expect that any future business would present various challenges that cannot be predicted at the present time.
Competition
The concept behind ParkVida is unique and therefore there are no direct competitors in the Dominican Republic or elsewhere to the essence of the project. However, there are a number of hotels and resorts both in the Dominican Republic and globally which serve as good benchmarks for particular aspects of the ParkVida concept. Our closing of the anticipated transaction with ParkVida will be predicated on an evaluation of these benchmarks in relation to our intended project. When our evaluation is complete we will be better able to determine our competitiveness locally and internationally for the audience we hope to attract to ParkVida.
Our evaluation to date of the competitiveness of the Park Vida project is based on a site visit, interviews with local professionals and detailed research. We have determined that the site itself holds a tremendous level of natural beauty and benefits from close proximity to a national park with a favorable
topographical aspect. The property has a good deal of elevation available and will be complemented by a lake at the base of the valley on completion of a nearby dam. The climate of the Dominican Republic is excellent for most of the year and the country is very accessible internationally.
Domestically, the Dominican Republic is politically and economically stable and has a growing, young middle class with major brand aspirations and links abroad. Domestic road access to the site though rugged is acceptable and likely to improve over time. We identified an existing latent demand for quality mountain biking facilities in the Dominican market. The existing mountain bike tour supplier leads the industry in part due to a complete lack of competition. A very small percentage (less than 3%) of the existing 70,000 hotel beds in the Dominican Republic are categorized as five-star. Existing eco-lodge style accommodation in the Caribbean currently does not demonstrate a five-star level of service to guests. Existing adventure tour operators could be better developed, particularly regarding the mountain bike product available. There are only three zip line experiences available in the country, all of which are limited in some respect by either
marketing or safety problems associated with operation.
The Park Vida project is characterized with the following strengths:
· ParkVida is a unique concept that is not easily copied given the requirement of suitable land ownership which should serve as a barrier to entry for competitors.
· Location, natural beauty, favorable topography, agreeable climate.
· Local tax incentives.
· Local community and political support.
· Established demand.
6
The Park Vida project is characterized with the following weaknesses:
· Existing road access to the site is merely acceptable and will require development.
· Poor quality of existing tourism products in the immediately surrounding area.
· General association of the Dominican Republic with three star all-inclusive beach holidays only.
The Park Vida project is characterized as offering the following opportunities which may offer an advantage over existing competitors:
· Provide a high level of service in a country where currently only a small percentage of five-star level facilities exist.
· Provide a range of different activities on the same site.
o Downhill mountain biking
o Cross country mountain biking
o Zip lining
o Hiking
o Spa services
o Fishing
o Coffee tours
· The concept could be expanded in the future to include additional sites.
Otherwise, whatever business opportunity we do pursue, we are almost certain to be involved in intense competition with other business entities, many of which will have a competitive edge over us by virtue of their stronger financial resources and prior business experience.
Employees
The Company is a development stage company and currently has no employees. Ruairidh Campbell, our sole officer and director, manages the Company. The Company looks to Mr. Campbell for his entrepreneurial skills and talents. Management uses consultants, attorneys and accountants as necessary and does not plan to engage any full-time employees in the near future.
Patents, Trademarks, Licenses, Franchises, Concessions, Royalty Agreements and Labor Contracts
The Company currently operates under and holds no patents, trademarks, licenses, franchises, concessions, or royalty agreements. We are not subject to any labor contracts. The Company does own various domain names associated with the ParkVida brand in North America, Europe and the Dominican Republic.
Governmental and Environmental Regulation
General
The Company cannot at this time anticipate the government regulations, if any, to which the Company may be subject following a merger or acquisition. However, we can be certain that the conduct of any business subjects us to environmental, public health and safety, land use, trade, or other governmental regulations and state or local taxation. In selecting a business in which to acquire an interest, management would endeavor to ascertain the effects of such government regulation on a prospective business opportunity. In certain circumstances, however, such as the acquisition of an interest in a new or start-up business activity, it may not be possible to predict with any degree of accuracy the impact of government regulation.
7
The Company believes that it is currently in compliance in all material respects with all laws, rules, regulations and requirements that affect its business. Further, we believe that compliance with such applicable laws, rules, regulations and requirements does not impose a material impediment on our ability to conduct business.
Climate Change Legislation and Greenhouse Gas Regulation
Many studies over the past couple decades have indicated that emissions of certain gases contribute to warming of the Earths atmosphere. In response to these studies, many nations have agreed to limit emissions of greenhouse gases or GHGs pursuant to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change, and the Kyoto Protocol. The Dominican Republic is a signatory to the Kyoto Protocol.
Although the United States is not participating in the Kyoto Protocol, several states have adopted legislation and regulations to reduce emissions of greenhouse gases. Additionally, the United States Supreme Court has ruled, in Massachusetts, et al. v. EPA, that the EPA abused its discretion under the Clean Air Act by refusing to regulate carbon dioxide emissions from mobile sources. As a result of the Supreme Court decision the EPA issued a finding that serves as the foundation under the Clean Air Act to issue other rules that would result in federal greenhouse gas regulations and emissions limits under the Clean Air Act, even without Congressional action. Finally, acts of Congress, particularly those such as the American Clean Energy and Security Act of 2009 approved by the United States House of Representatives, as well as the decisions of lower courts, large numbers of states, and foreign governments could widely affect climate change regulation. Greenhouse gas legislation and regulation could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations.
Research and Development
During the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, the Company spent no amounts on research and development activities.
Reports to Security Holders
The Companys annual report contains audited financial statements. We are not required to deliver an annual report to security holders and will not automatically deliver a copy of the annual report to our security holders unless a request is made for such delivery. We file all of our required reports and other information with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the Commission). The public may read and copy any materials that are filed by the Company with the Commission at the Commissions Public Reference Room at 100 F Street, N.E., Washington, D.C. 20549. The public may obtain information on the operation of the Public Reference Room by calling the Commission at 1-800-SEC-0330. The statements and forms filed by us with the Commission have also been filed electronically and are available for viewing or copy on the Commission maintained Internet site that contains reports, proxy and information statements, and other information regarding issuers that file electronically with the Commission. The Internet address for this site can be found at ww.sec.gov.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
The Companys operations and securities are subject to a number of risks. Below we have identified and discussed the material risks that we are likely to face. Should any of the following risks occur, they will adversely affect our operations, business, financial condition and/or operating results as well as the future trading price and/or the value of our securities.
Risks Related to the Companys Business
We have a history of significant operating losses and such losses may continue in the future.
Since our inception in 1999, our expenses have substantially exceeded our income, resulting in continuing losses and an accumulated deficit of $382,055 at December 31, 2010. The Company has never realized revenue from operations. Our only expectation of future profitability is dependent on the successful development of ParkVida as a resort, or in the event that our transaction with ParkVida does not close, some other revenue producing business opportunity.
The Companys limited financial resources cast severe doubt on our ability to pursue our business plan or to acquire a profitable business opportunity.
The Companys future operation is dependent upon the successful development of ParkVida as a resort or the acquisition of a profitable business opportunity. We found it impossible to realize the financing needed for our share exchange agreement with PWS and may encounter the same difficulty in realizing the requisite funding to see the development of ParkVida through to completion. The Companys inability to finance its operations sufficiently may prevent it from developing ParkVida or any business and may act as a deterrent in any future negotiations with potential acquisition candidates. Should the Company be unable to acquire or develop a profitable business opportunity, it will, in all likelihood, be forced to cease operations.
We are dependent upon a key person, who would be difficult to replace.
Our continued operation will be largely dependent upon the efforts of Ruairidh Campbell, our sole officer and director. We do not maintain key-person insurance on Mr. Campbell. Our future success also will depend in large part upon the Companys ability to identify, attract and retain other highly qualified managerial, technical and sales and marketing personnel. Competition for these individuals is intense. The loss of the services of Mr. Campbell, the inability to identify, attract or retain qualified personnel in the future or delays in hiring qualified personnel could make it more difficult for us to maintain our operations and meet key objectives such as the acquisition of a suitable business opportunity.
Risks Related to the Companys Stock
The market for our stock is limited and our stock price may be volatile.
The market for our common stock has been limited due to low trading volume and the small number of brokerage firms acting as market makers. Because of the limitations of our market and volatility of the market price of our stock, investors may face difficulties in selling shares at attractive prices when they want to. The average daily trading volume for our stock has varied significantly from week to week and from month to month, and the trading volume often varies widely from day to day.
9
We incur significant expenses as a result of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, which expenses may continue to negatively impact our financial performance.
We incur significant legal, accounting and other expenses as a result of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, as well as related rules implemented by the Commission, which control the corporate governance practices of public companies. Compliance with these laws, rules and regulations, including compliance with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, as discussed in the following risk factor, has substantially increased our expenses, including legal and accounting costs, and made some activities more time-consuming and costly.
Our internal controls over financial reporting may not be considered effective in the future, which could result in a loss of investor confidence in our financial reports and in turn have an adverse effect on our stock price.
Pursuant to Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 we are required to furnish a report by our management on our internal controls over financial reporting. Such report must contain, among other matters, an assessment of the effectiveness of our internal controls over financial reporting as of the end of the year, including a statement as to whether or not our internal controls over financial reporting are effective. This assessment must include disclosure of any material weaknesses in our internal controls over financial reporting identified by management. If we are unable to continue to assert that our internal controls are effective, our investors could lose confidence in the accuracy and completeness of our financial reports, which in turn could cause our stock price to decline.
The Company will require capital to meet operational requirements which it may not be able to satisfy.
The Company will require financing through equity offerings or debt placements to meet the working capital requirements of its plan of operation. Despite the projected need for financing, the Company has no commitment to raise any of the additional capital requisite to complete the ParkVida resort or necessarily the funding required for any other plan of operation. Should additional capital not become available it will not be able to meet the financial obligations attendant to its current plan of operation or any future plan.
If the market price of our common stock declines as the selling security holders sell their stock, selling security holders or others may be encouraged to engage in short selling, depressing the market price.
The significant downward pressure on the price of the common stock as the selling security holders sell material amounts of common stock could encourage short sales by the selling security holders or others. Short selling is the selling of a security that the seller does not own, or any sale that is completed by the delivery of a security borrowed by the seller. Short sellers assume that they will be able to buy the stock at a lower amount than the price at which they sold it short. Significant short selling of a companys stock creates an incentive for market participants to reduce the value of that companys common stock. If a significant market for short selling our common stock develops, the market price of our common stock could be significantly depressed.
The Companys shareholders may face significant restrictions on their stock.
The Companys stock differs from many stocks in that it is a penny stock. The Commission has adopted a number of rules to regulate penny stocks including, but not limited to, those rules from the Securities Act as follows:
10
3a51-1 which defines penny stock as, generally speaking, those securities which are not listed on either NASDAQ or a national securities exchange and are priced under $5, excluding securities of issuers that have net tangible assets greater than $2 million if they have been in operation at least three years, greater than $5 million if in operation less than three years, or average revenue of at least $6 million for the last three years;
15g-1 which outlines transactions by broker/dealers which are exempt from 15g-2 through 15g-6 as those whose commissions from traders are lower than 5% total commissions;
15g-2 which details that brokers must disclose risks of penny stock on Schedule 15G;
15g-3 which details that broker/dealers must disclose quotes and other information relating to the penny stock market;
15g-4 which explains that compensation of broker/dealers must be disclosed;
15g-5 which explains that compensation of persons associated in connection with penny stock sales must be disclosed;
15g-6 which outlines that broker/dealers must send out monthly account statements; and
15g-9 which defines sales practice requirements.
Since the Companys securities constitute a penny stock within the meaning of the rules, the rules would apply to us and our securities. Because these rules provide regulatory burdens upon broker-dealers, they may affect the ability of shareholders to sell their securities in any market that may develop; the rules themselves may limit the market for penny stocks. Additionally, the market among dealers may not be active. Investors in penny stock often are unable to sell stock back to the dealer that sold them the stock. The mark-ups or commissions charged by the broker-dealers may be greater than any profit a seller may make. Because of large dealer spreads, investors may be unable to sell the stock immediately back to the dealer at the same price the dealer sold the stock to the investor. In some cases, the stock may fall quickly in value. Investors may be unable to reap any profit from any sale of the stock, if they can sell it at all. Shareholders should be aware that, according to Commission Release No. 34-29093 dated April 17, 1991, the market for penny stocks has suffered from patterns of fraud and abuse. These patterns include:
- control of the market for the security by one or a few broker-dealers that are often related to the promoter or issuer;
- manipulation of prices through prearranged matching of purchases and sales and false and misleading press releases;
- boiler room practices involving high pressure sales tactics and unrealistic price projections;
- excessive and undisclosed bid-ask differentials and markups by selling broker-dealers; and
- the wholesale dumping of the same securities by promoters and broker-dealers after prices have been manipulated to a desired level, along with the inevitable collapse of those prices with consequent investor losses.

Capital Stock
The following is a summary of the material terms of the Companys capital stock. This summary is subject to and qualified by our articles of incorporation and bylaws.
Common Stock
As of March 29, 2011 there were 90 shareholders of record holding a total of 23,676,843 shares of fully paid and non-assessable common stock of the 500,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.001, authorized. The board of directors believes that the number of beneficial owners is substantially greater than the number of record holders because a portion of our outstanding common stock is held in broker street names for the benefit of individual investors. The holders of the common stock are entitled to one vote for each share held of record on all matters submitted to a vote of stockholders. Holders of the common stock have no preemptive rights and no right to convert their common stock into any other securities.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
This Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and other parts of this annual report contain forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Forward-looking statements can also be identified by words such as anticipates, expects, believes, plans, predicts, and similar terms. Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and our actual results may differ significantly from the results discussed in the forward-looking statements. Factors that might cause such differences include but are not limited to those discussed in the subsection entitled Forward-Looking Statements and Factors That May Affect Future Results and Financial Condition below. The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and notes thereto included in this report. Our fiscal year end is December 31.
Plan of Operation
Our plan of operation over the next twelve to twenty four months is to design, construct and operate a premiere destination resort to be known as ParkVida that will be focused on mountain biking of all disciplines (i.e. downhill, cross-country, free ride, dirt jump, trials/street, and cyclocross) in addition to a host of other exciting activities.
We have not closed the transaction in connection with the acquisition of ParkVida though we do anticipate closing during the second quarter of 2011. Should we not complete the anticipated acquisition then our plan of operation will be to reengage in the process of considering business opportunities for merger or acquisition.
Should we close the acquisition of ParkVida, as anticipated, the Company will require a minimum of $10 million dollars in additional debt or equity funding in 2011. Such financing is not currently committed and there can be no assurance that such financing will be available within the next twelve months. In the event we do not close our anticipated transaction to acquire ParkVida, the Company will have sufficient funding over the next 12 months to maintain current operations and seek out an alternative business opportunity.
Results of Operations
During the year ended December 31, 2010, the Company (i) satisfied continuous public disclosure requirements, (ii) closed the assignment of the share exchange agreement with PWS to Dobhai;
(iii) performed due diligence with respect to ParkVida, (iv) procured requisite equity financing in connection with the prospective acquisition of ParkVida.
Net Loss
For the period from December 7, 1999, to December 31, 2010, the Company recorded a net loss of $382,055. Net losses for the twelve month period ended December 31, 2010 were $69,085 as compared to $66,837 for the twelve month period ended December 31, 2009. The decrease in the Companys net losses over the comparative twelve month periods can be attributed to a gain on the sale of its rights associated with the PWS shareholders agreement offset by an increase in general and administrative expenses. The Companys cumulative operating loss is mostly due to costs associated with a forfeited option agreement, the impaired LA Boxing franchise fee, interest expenses and general and administrative expenses. General and administrative costs include accounting costs, consulting fees, mining exploration expenses, due diligence costs and the preparation of disclosure documentation.
We did not generate revenue during this period and expect to continue to incur losses.
14
Capital Expenditures
The Company expended no amounts on capital expenditures for the period from December 7, 1999, to December 31, 2010.
Income Tax Expense (Benefit)
The Company has a prospective income tax benefit resulting from a net operating loss carry-forward and start up costs that will offset any future operating profit.
Impact of Inflation
The Company believes that inflation has had a negligible effect on operations over the past three years.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company is in the development stage and, since inception, has experienced significant changes in liquidity, capital resources, and stockholders deficit. The Company had current and total assets of $718,425 as of December 31, 2010, consisting of cash of $334,592, a note receivable of $378,963 from JBP and interest thereon of $4,870 due from JBP. Net stockholders' equity in the Company was $716,595 at December 31, 2010.
Cash flow used in operating activities was $253,220 for the period from December 7, 1999, to December 31, 2010. Cash flow used in operating activities for the twelve month period ended December 31, 2010 was $70,209 as compared to $73 for the twelve month period ended December 31, 2009. The cash flows used in operating activities over the current period can be attributed to the payment of current period general and administrative costs and decreases in accounts payable and related party interest payable. Our cumulative cash flow used in operating activities was used on accounting, administration, consulting, exploration expenses and a franchise fee. We expect to continue to use cash flow in operating activities over the next twelve months in developing ParkVida.
Cash flow provided from financing activities was $954,736 for the period from December 7, 1999, to December 31, 2010. Cash flow provided by financing activities for the twelve months ended December 31, 2010 increased to $664,549 as compared to $100 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2009. The increase in cash flow provided from financing activities over the comparative twelve month periods can be attributed to related party loans and equity sales in the current period associated with the funding commitment required to acquire JBP from Park offset by payment on a note payable. The Companys cumulative financing activities have consisted of sales of the Companys common stock as well as related and non-related party loans. We expect to continue to use cash flow provided by financing activities to raise addition funds to follow our plan of operation.
Cash flow used in investing activities was $366,924 for the period from December 7, 1999, to December 31, 2010. Cash flow used in investing activities for the twelve months ended December 31, 2010 increased to $259,849 as compared to $0 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2009. The increase in cash flows used in investing activities over the comparative twelve month periods can be attributed to a series of secured loans made to JBP offset by cash flow provided by investing activities with the repayment of the PWS loan and our gain on the assignment of our PWS rights to Dobhai. Cash flow used in investing activities over the cumulative period can be partially attributed to those amounts loaned to JBP, the franchise fee paid to LA Boxing and the loan to PWS. We do expect to use cash flow in investing activities in connection with the development or ParkVida or alternatively in the acquisition of an alternative business opportunity.
15
The Companys current assets are insufficient to conduct its plan of operation over the next twelve (12) months. We will have to seek at least $10,000,000 in debt or equity financing over the next twelve months to fund our anticipated development of ParkVida. The Company has no current commitments or arrangements with respect to, or immediate sources of this funding. Further, no assurances can be given that funding is available. The Companys shareholders are the most likely source of new funding in the form of loans or equity placements though none have made any commitment for future investment and the Company has no agreement formal or otherwise. The Companys inability to obtain sufficient funding for ParkVida will have a material adverse affect on its ability to fulfill its current plan of operation or to search for alternative business opportunities.
The Company does not intend to pay cash dividends in the foreseeable future.
The Company had no lines of credit or other bank financing arrangements as of December 31, 2010.
The Company had no commitments for future capital expenditures that were material at December 31, 2010.
The Company has no defined benefit plan or contractual commitment with any of its officers or directors.
The Company has no current plans for the purchase or sale of any plant or equipment.
The Company has no current plans to make any changes in the number of employees.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
As of December 31, 2010, we have no significant off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures, or capital resources that are material to stockholders.
Critical Accounting Policies
In Note 1 to the audited financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, included in our Form 10-K, the Company discusses those accounting policies that are considered to be significant in determining the results of operations and its financial position. The Company believes that the accounting principles utilized by it conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.
The preparation of financial statements requires Company management to make significant estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. By their nature, these judgments are subject to an inherent degree of uncertainty. On an on-going basis, the Company evaluates estimates. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and other facts and circumstances that are believed to be reasonable, and the results form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities. The actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
16
Going Concern
The Companys auditors have expressed an opinion as to the Companys ability to continue as a going concern as a result of an accumulated deficit of $382,055 as of December 31, 2010. The Companys ability to continue as a going concern is subject to the ability of the Company to realize a profit and /or obtain funding from outside sources. Managements plan to address the Companys ability to continue as a going concern includes: (i) obtaining funding from the private placement of debt or equity; (ii) realizing revenues from its prospective development of JBP or alternative business opportunities; and (iii) obtaining loans and grants from financial or government institutions. Management believes that it will be able to obtain funding to allow the Company to remain a going concern through the methods discussed above, though there can be no assurances that such methods will prove successful.
Forward-Looking Statements and Factors That May Affect Future Results and Financial Condition
The statements contained in the section titled Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and elsewhere in this current report, with the exception of historical facts, are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements reflect our current expectations and beliefs regarding our future results of operations, performance, and achievements. These statements are subject to risks and uncertainties and are based upon assumptions and beliefs that may or may not materialize. These statements include, but are not limited to, statements concerning:
· our anticipated financial performance and business plan;
· the sufficiency of existing capital resources;
· our ability to raise additional capital to fund cash requirements for future operations;
· uncertainties related to the Companys future business prospects;
· our ability to generate revenues from future operations;
· the volatility of the stock market and;
· general economic conditions.
We wish to caution readers that our operating results are subject to various risks and uncertainties that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those discussed or anticipated including the factors set forth in the section entitled Risk Factors included elsewhere in this report. We also wish to advise readers not to place any undue reliance on the forward-looking statements contained in this report, which reflect our beliefs and expectations only as of the date of this report. We assume no obligation to update or revise these forward-looking statements to reflect new events or circumstances or any changes in our beliefs or expectations, other than as required by law.
Stock-Based Compensation
We have adopted Accounting Standards Codification Topic (ASC) 718, Share-Based Payment, which addresses the accounting for stock-based payment transactions in which an enterprise receives employee services in exchange for (a) equity instruments of the enterprise or (b) liabilities that are based on the fair value of the enterprises equity instruments or that may be settled by the issuance of such equity instruments.
We account for equity instruments issued in exchange for the receipt of goods or services from other than employees in accordance with ASC 505. Costs are measured at the estimated fair market value of the consideration received or the estimated fair value of the equity instruments issued, whichever is more reliably measurable. The value of equity instruments issued for consideration other than employee services is determined on the earliest of a performance commitment or completion of performance by the provider of goods or services.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
Board of Directors
Montana Mining Corp.
Salt Lake City, Utah
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Montana Mining Corp. [a development stage company] as of December 31, 2010 and 2009 and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders' equity (deficit) and cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended December 31, 2010 and for the period from inception on December 7, 1999 through December 31, 2010. Montana Mining Corp.s management is responsible for these financial statements. 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 audit 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 Companys 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 consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Montana Mining Corp. as of December 31, 2010 and 2009 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended December 31, 2010 and for the period from inception on December 7, 1999 through December 31, 2010, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming Montana Mining Corp. will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements, Montana Mining Corp. has incurred losses since its inception and has not yet established profitable operations. These factors raise substantial doubt about the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern. Managements plans in regards to these matters are also described in Note 2. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of these uncertainties.

MONTANA MINING CORP.
(A Development Stage Company)
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 31, 2010 and 2009
Note 1 Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Organization
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Montana Mining Corp. (Montana), which was organized under the laws of the State of Nevada on December 7, 1999 (date of inception), and Fitness USA, Inc. (Fitness USA), a wholly-owned subsidiary (collectively the Company). The Company has identified a suitable business opportunity for acquisition but has not as yet closed on the transaction.
Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles 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 financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Montana and Fitness USA. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
For purposes of the statement of cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
Income Taxes
Deferred income taxes arise from temporary differences resulting from income and expense items reported for financial accounting and tax purposes in different periods. Deferred taxes are classified as current or noncurrent, depending on the classification of the assets and liabilities to which they relate. Deferred taxes arising from temporary differences that are not related to an asset or liability are classified as current or noncurrent depending on the periods in which the temporary differences are expected to reverse.
If the Company has uncertain tax positions, they are evaluated by management and a loss contingency is recognized when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. The amount recognized is subject to estimate and management judgment and the amount ultimately sustained for an uncertain tax position could differ from the amount recognized. As of December 31, 2010, management did not identify any uncertain tax positions. The tax years previous to 2008 are closed to examination by the Internal Revenue Service.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 31, 2010 and 2009
Note 1 Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
Earnings Per Share
The computation of basic earnings per common share is based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the year.
The computation of diluted earnings per common share is based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the year plus the common stock equivalents which would arise from the exercise of stock options and warrants outstanding using the treasury stock method and the average market price per share during the period. Common stock equivalents are not included in the diluted earnings per share calculation when their effect is anti-dilutive. The Company does not have any stock options or warrants outstanding at December 31, 2010 and 2009.
Concentration of Credit Risk
The Company maintains its cash in bank deposit accounts, which, at times, may exceed federally insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts and believes it is not exposed to any significant credit risk on cash and cash equivalents.
Note 2 Going Concern
As of December 31, 2010, the Companys revenue generating activities are not in place, and the Company has incurred losses since inception. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Companys ability to continue as a going concern. The Company intends to seek additional equity or debt financing in the event it completes the acquisition of JBP, S.R.L. (JBP) (see Note 10). There can be no assurance that such funds will be available to the Company or that it will complete its acquisition of JBP.
Note 3 Notes Receivable
During 2010, the Company advanced $378,963 to JBP (see Note 10) under a secured note receivable. The note is secured by all assets of JBP, bears interest at 6%, and is due December 31, 2012.
During 2010, the Company received payment in full on its note receivable from Produced Water Solutions, Inc. / Dobhai Ventures, Inc. (see Note 9).

Note 6 Income Taxes (continued)
Deferred tax assets are as follows at December 31:
The Company has federal income tax net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $13,000, which begin to expire in 2020. The amount of net operating loss carryforwards that can be used in any one year will be limited by significant changes in the ownership of the Company and by the applicable tax laws which are in effect at the time such carryforwards can be utilized.
Note 7 Supplemental Cash Flow Information
During 2010 and 2009, actual amounts paid for interest were $19,874 and $0, respectively. No amounts were paid for income taxes in the same periods.
During the year ended December 31, 2010 the Company issued 1,178,140 shares of common stock in exchange for a reduction of related party accounts payable of $58,907.
Note 8 Fair Value of Financial Instruments
None of the Companys financial instruments, which are current assets and liabilities that could be readily traded, are held for trading purposes. The Company estimates that the fair value of all financial instruments at December 31, 2010 does not differ materially from the aggregate carrying value of its financial instruments recorded in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet.

Note 9 Share Exchange Agreement and Assignment Agreement
On November 20, 2008, the Company signed a Share Exchange Agreement (the Agreement) with Produced Water Solutions, Inc. (PWS) and the shareholders of PWS to acquire PWS as a wholly-owned subsidiary on or before July 17, 2009. Pursuant to the Agreement the Company was to acquire all of the issued and outstanding shares of PWS in exchange for 8,000,000 shares of common stock of the Company to be distributed pro rata to the shareholders of PWS. At the inception of the agreement and as an inducement to enter into the Agreement, the Company loaned PWS $100,000 Canadian dollars, in the form of a promissory note.
On August 26, 2009, the Company entered into an Assignment Agreement (the Assignment) with Dobhai Ventures, Inc., (Dobhai), PWS, and the shareholders of PWS in order to assign the Companys interest in the share exchange agreement with PWS to Dobhai for $1.00. The Assignment also provides that, if Dobhai acquires PWS, the Company will receive a two and one half percent (2½%) royalty on all net revenue realized by Dobhai or PWS from services that utilize PWS reverse osmosis and ultra-filtration technology for thirty six (36) months from the date of the transaction up to a maximum royalty payment of $1,000,000 and a cash payment of $135,000 payable by Dobhai to the Company within ten days of Dobhais acquisition of PWS.
During 2010, the Company received $135,000 as collection of the note receivable, related interest receivable, and a gain on the sale of the rights to acquire PWS.
Note 10 Purchase Agreement
On August 20, 2010, the Company entered into a Purchase Agreement (the Agreement) with Park to acquire JBP as a wholly-owned subsidiary. Pursuant to the Agreement, the Company will acquire all of the issued and outstanding shares of JBP from Park in exchange for fifteen million two hundred and eighty-two thousand one hundred and twenty (15,282,120) shares of common stock and six million eight hundred and twenty-four thousand and three hundred (6,824,300) share purchase warrants to be exercised within ten years of the grant date at an exercise price of $0.005 a share.
The Agreement further requires that the Company pay a finders fee comprised of one million five hundred and twenty-eight thousand two hundred and twelve (1,528,212) shares of common stock and six hundred and eighty-two thousand four hundred and thirty (682,430) share purchase warrants to be exercised within three years of the grant date at an exercise price of $0.06 a share.
The Company has satisfied the financing precondition and is now in the process of working with JBP to conclude its due diligence inquiry into JBP, its assets, business, and prospects.
Note 11 Subsequent Events
The Company evaluated its December 31, 2010 financial statements for subsequent events through the date the financial statements were issued. The Company is not aware of any subsequent events which would require recognition or disclosure in the financial statements.

Note 12 Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In October 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2009-13, Multiple-Deliverable Revenue Arrangements, or ASU 2009-13. ASU 2009-13 establishes the accounting and reporting guidance for arrangements that include multiple revenue-generating activities, and provides amendments to the criteria for separating deliverables, and measuring and allocating arrangement consideration to one or more units of accounting. The amendments in ASU 2009-13 also establish a hierarchy for determining the selling price of a deliverable. Enhanced disclosures are also required to provide information about a vendors multiple-deliverable revenue arrangements, including information about the nature and terms of the arrangement, significant deliverables, and the vendors performance within arrangements. The amendments also require providing information about the significant judgments made and changes to those judgments and about how the application of the relative selling-price method affects the timing or amount of revenue recognition. The amendments in ASU 2009-13 are effective prospectively for revenue arrangements entered into or materially modified in fiscal years beginning on or after June 15, 2010, or January 1, 2011 for us. Early application is permitted. The adoption of ASU 2009-13 will not have a material impact on our financial position or results of operations.
In July 2010, FASB issued ASU No. 2010-20 Disclosures about the credit quality of financing receivables and the allowance for credit losses, which requires expanded disclosures about the credit quality of an entitys financing receivables and its allowance for credit loss on a disaggregated basis. This ASU is effective for annual reporting periods ending on or after December 15, 2011. The Company does not expect the adoption of this ASU will have a material impact on the Companys consolidated financial statements.
In April 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2010-13, Effect of Denominating the Exercise Price of a Share-Based Payment Award in the Currency of the Market in Which the Underlying Equity Security Trades (ASU 2010-13). ASU 2010-13 addresses the classification of a share-based payment award with an exercise price denominated in the currency of a market in which the underlying equity security trades. FASB Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 718 was amended to clarify that a share-based payment award with an exercise price denominated in the currency of a market in which a substantial portion of the entitys equity securities trade shall not be considered to contain a market, performance, or service condition. Therefore, such an award is not to be classified as a liability if it otherwise qualifies for equity classification. The amendments in ASU 2010-13 are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning on or after December 15, 2010, with early application permitted. We do not anticipate that the adoption of this guidance will have a material impact on our financial position and results of operations.
Other new pronouncements issued but not effective until after January 1, 2011 are not expected to have a significant effect on our financial position or results of operations.

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES (ITEM 9A (T))
Management's Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
In connection with the preparation of this annual report, an evaluation was carried out by the Companys management, with the participation of the chief executive officer and chief financial officer, of the effectiveness of the Companys disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (Exchange Act)) as of December 31, 2010. Disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the Commissions rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including the chief executive officer and chief financial officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.
Based on that evaluation, the Companys management concluded, as of the end of the period covered by this report, that the Companys disclosure controls and procedures were effective in recording, processing, summarizing, and reporting information required to be disclosed, within the time periods specified in the Commissions rules and forms, and such information was accumulated and communicated to management, including the chief executive officer and the chief financial officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.
Managements Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
The management of the Company is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. The Companys internal control over financial reporting is a process, under the supervision of the chief executive officer and the chief financial officer, designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of the Companys financial statements for external purposes in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). Internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that:
- Pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the Companys assets;
- Provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of the financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and the board of directors; and
- Provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the Companys 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.
19
The Companys management conducted an assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2010, based on criteria established in Internal Control Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission, which assessment did not identify any material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting. A material weakness is a control deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies in internal control over financial reporting that creates a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement in annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. Since the assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting did not identify any material weaknesses, management considers its internal control over financial reporting to be effective.
This annual report does not include an attestation report of our independent registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. We were not required to have, nor have we, engaged our independent registered public accounting firm to perform an audit of internal control over financial reporting pursuant to the rules of the Commission that permit us to provide only managements report in this annual report.
Changes in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting
During the period ended December 31, 2010, there has been no change in internal control over financial reporting that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.

Ruairidh Campbell |
47 |
chief executive officer, chief financial officer and director |
Ruairidh Campbell was appointed as officer and director of the Company on December 10, 1999. He estimates that he spends approximately 10 percent of his time, approximately 5 hours per week, on the Companys business. He also has significant responsibilities with other companies, as detailed in the following paragraph. He will serve until an annual meeting of the Companys shareholders and his successor is elected and qualified. Thereafter, directors will be elected for one-year terms at the annual shareholders meeting. Officers hold their positions at the pleasure of the board of directors, absent any employment agreement.
20
Mr. Campbell graduated from the University of Texas at Austin with a Bachelor of Arts in History and then from the University of Utah College of Law with a Juris Doctorate.
Over the past five years he has been an officer and director of two other public companies: Allied Resources Inc., an oil and gas production company from June 1998 to present (chief executive officer, chief financial officer, director) and Star Energy Corporation, an oil and gas production company from December 1999 to October 2006 (chief financial officer and director).
Term of Office
The Companys directors are appointed for a one (1) year term to hold office until the next annual shareholders meeting or until removed from office in accordance with the Companys bylaws. The Companys executive officers are appointed by the board of directors and hold office until removed by the board.
Involvement in Certain Legal Proceedings
To the best of our knowledge, during the past five years, none of the following occurred with respect to our director and executive officer: (1) any bankruptcy petition filed by or against any business of which such person was a general partner or executive officer either at the time of the bankruptcy or within two years prior to that time; (2) any conviction in a criminal proceeding or being subject to a pending criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations and other minor offences); (3) being subject to any order, judgment or decree, not subsequently reversed, suspended or vacated, of any court of competent jurisdiction, permanently or temporarily enjoining, barring, suspending or otherwise limiting his or her involvement in any type of business, securities or banking activities; and (4) being found by a court of competent jurisdiction (in a civil action), the Commission or the Commodities Futures Trading Commission to have violated a federal or state securities or commodities law, and the judgment has not been reversed, suspended or vacated.
Compliance with Section 16(A) of the Exchange Act
Based solely upon a review of Forms 3, 4 and 5 furnished to the Company, the Company is not aware of any person who, during the period ended December 31, 2010, failed to file, on a timely basis, reports required by Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.
Code of Ethics
The Company has adopted a Code of Ethics within the meaning of Item 406(b) of Regulation S-K of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The Code of Ethics applies to directors and senior officers, such as the principal executive officer, principal financial officer, controller, and persons performing similar functions. A copy of the Companys Code of Ethics is incorporated as Exhibit 14 to this Form 10-K. Further, the Companys Code of Ethics is available in print, at no charge, to any security holder who requests such information.
21
Board of Directors Committees
The board of directors has not yet established an audit committee. An audit committee typically reviews, acts on and reports to the board of directors with respect to various auditing and accounting matters, including the recommendations and performance of independent auditors, the scope of the annual audits, fees to be paid to the independent auditors, and internal accounting and financial control policies and procedures. Certain stock exchanges currently require companies to adopt a formal written charter that establishes an audit committee that specifies the scope of an audit committees responsibilities and the means by which it carries out those responsibilities. In order to be listed on any of these exchanges, the Company would be required to establish an audit committee.
The board of directors has not established a compensation committee.
Director Compensation
Our director receives no compensation for his service as director. We do not anticipate adopting a provision for compensating directors in the foreseeable future.
ITEM 11. EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION
Compensation Discussion and Analysis
The objective of the Companys compensation program is to incentivize our chief executive officer for services rendered. The compensation program includes a consulting fee. We utilize this form of compensation because we feel that this compensatory element is adequate to retain and motivate our executive officer. The amounts we have deemed appropriate to compensate our executive officer were determined in accordance with compensatory packages for other development stage companies though we have no specific formula to determine compensation. While we have deemed that our current compensatory program is appropriately suited for accomplishing our current objectives, in the future we may expand our compensation program to include additional benefits as the Company realizes those objectives.
Executive compensation for the periods ended December 31, 2010, and December 31, 2009 to our chief executive officer were $34,238 and $26,491 respectively. Compensation disclosure includes a consulting fee of $12,000 per annum and amounts paid or accrued to a related company for services rendered totaling $22,238 and $14,491 for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. The increase in executive compensation for services rendered in the current annual period over the prior annual period can be attributed to an increase in those amounts accrued to the related company over the current period in connection with the prospective acquisition of JBP. Additional compensation in the current period of $55,907 was paid to our chief executive and his consulting company in shares of common stock valued at $0.05 a share in settlement of amounts due over the current and prior periods that were accrued and unpaid.
Executive compensation is expected to expand in future periods to include salaries, stock awards and stock options in the event the Company proceeds with a business opportunity.
Table
The following table provides summary information for 2010 and 2009 concerning cash and non-cash compensation paid or accrued by the Company to or on behalf of (i) the chief executive officer and the chief financial officer and (ii) any other employee to receive compensation in excess of $100,000.

ITEM 13. CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS, AND DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCE
Certain Relationships and Related Transactions
None of our directors or executive officers, nor any proposed nominee for election as a director, nor any person who beneficially owns, directly or indirectly, shares carrying more than 5% of the voting rights attached to all of our outstanding shares, nor any members of the immediate family (including spouse, parents, children, siblings, and in−laws) of any of the foregoing persons has any material interest, direct or indirect, in any transaction since the beginning of our last fiscal year or in any presently proposed transaction which, in either case, has or will materially affect us except the following consulting agreement, rendition of consulting services:
· Ruairidh Campbell, sole executive officer and director has entered into a consulting arrangement on a month to month basis that provides for a monthly fee of $1,000.
- Ruairidh Campbell, sole executive officer and director has caused the Company to enter into a consulting arrangement with a related company for services rendered in connection with the preparation of documentation that is invoiced as completed.

Director Independence
Our common stock is listed on the OTC Bulletin Board inter-dealer quotation system, which does not have director independence requirements. For purposes of determining director independence, we have applied the definitions set out in NASDAQ Rule 4200(a)(15). Under NASDAQ Rule 4200(a)(15), a director is not considered to be independent if he or she is also an executive officer or employee of the corporation. Accordingly, our sole director is not independent.

(Pritchett) provided audit services to the Company in connection with its annual report and review of quarterly filings during the fiscal years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009.
