PART I

ITEM 1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

Overview

VIASPACE Green Energy Inc., a British Virgin Islands (“BVI”) international business company (“we”, “us”, “VGE” or the “Company”) is the parent company of Inter Pacific Arts Corporation, a BVI international business company (“IPA BVI”) and Guangzhou Inter Pacific Arts, a Peoples Republic of China (“PRC” or “China”) company (“IPA China”). IPA China is a wholly-owned foreign enterprise headquartered in Guangdong province of China. IPA BVI owns all equity interests of IPA China. IPA BVI and IPA China specialize in the manufacturing of high quality, copyrighted, framed artwork sold in US retail chain stores. IPA China also has a sublicense to a fast-growing, high yield, low carbon, nonfood energy crop called Giant KingTM Grass (“GKG”) which can be burned in 100% biomass power plants to generate electricity; made into pellets that can be burned together with coal to reduce carbon emissions from existing power plants; generate bio methane through anaerobic digestion, and can be used as a feedstock for low carbon liquid biofuels for transportation, biochemicals and bio plastics. Cellulosic ethanol, bio butanol and other liquid biofuels, collectively called “Grassoline,” do not use corn or other food sources as feedstock. GKG can also be used as animal feed. GKG and other plants absorb and store carbon dioxide from the atmosphere as they grow. When they are burned, they release the carbon dioxide back into the atmosphere, but it is the same carbon dioxide that was removed from the atmosphere, and that the process is approximately carbon neutral. Small amounts of fossil fuel are used by the farm equipment, transportation of GKG and fertilizer, so that the overall process of growing and burning GKG probably has some net carbon dioxide emissions, but much lower emissions than burning coal or other fossil fuels directly to create the same amount of energy. GKG has been independently tested by customers and been shown to have satisfactory energy content, high bio methane production, and high potential for biofuels and biochemicals. VGE launched a new website in 2010 which can be viewed at www.VIASPACEGreenEnergy.com. Information contained on, or accessible through, our website should not be deemed as part of this annual report.

We are growing GKG on approximately 280 acres of leased land in China to serve as a nursery to provide seedlings for large bioenergy projects, a demonstration plantation for potential partners and customers to visit, to provide samples for testing by potential customers, and as a grass source for our own Green LogTM product. VGE is headquartered in California with business activities in China.

As of December 31, 2010 VIASPACE Inc. (“VIASPACE” or “Parent”) owns 75.7% of the outstanding common shares of VGE. As of December 31, 2009 VIASPACE owned 59.3% of the outstanding common shares of VGE.

Corporate History

On October 21, 2008, VIASPACE and VGE entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the "Purchase Agreement") with Sung Hsien Chang ("Chang"), and China Gate Technology Co., Ltd., a Brunei Darussalam company ("Licensor"). Under the Purchase Agreement, we agreed to acquire 100% of Inter-Pacific Arts Corp., a BVI international business company ("IPA BVI"), and the entire equity interest of Guangzhou Inter-Pacific Arts Corp., a Chinese wholly owned foreign enterprise registered in Guangdong province ("IPA China") from Chang, the sole shareholder of IPA BVI and IPA China. In exchange, VIASPACE agreed to pay $16 million in a combination of cash, and newly-issued shares of VIASPACE and our ordinary shares. In addition, VIASPACE issued shares of its common stock to Licensor and in exchange Licensor sub licensed certain grass technology to IPA China.

Initially, the transactions under the Purchase Agreement ("Acquisition") were to involve two phases. At the first closing (“First Closing”) on October 21, 2008, we issued 3,500,000 newly-issued shares to Chang and his designees. VIASPACE issued 215,384,615 shares of its common stock to Chang and 30,576,007 shares of common stock to Licensor. Chang delivered 70% of the outstanding common stock of IPA BVI to us. At that point, we controlled 70% of IPA BVI. Accordingly, we consolidated its results, assets and liabilities in our financial statements. IPA China became a wholly-owned subsidiary of IPA BVI subsequent to the First Closing on June 9, 2009.

The conditions to VIASPACE’s and VGE’s obligations to consummate the second closing (“Second Closing”) included: (1) representations and warranties of Chang and Licensor remained true at closing; (2) Chang complied with the material covenants under the agreement; (3) the issuance of the securities to Chang and Licensor were exempt from registration, including under Regulation D for which the issuance of the First Closing shares relied upon; (4) Chang executed certain compliance certificates; (5) customary permits, consents and waivers were obtained; (6) books and records were delivered to VIASPACE; (7) an officer’s certificate regarding each target’s charter documents were delivered; (8) due diligence had been satisfactorily completed; and (9) Chang shall have transferred his entire equity interest in IPA China to IPA BVI.

The conditions to Chang’s and Licensor’s obligation to consummate the second closing included: (1) representations and warranties of VIASPACE and us remained true at closing; (2) VIASPACE and we complied with the material covenants under the agreement; (3) books and records of VIASPACE were delivered or made available to Chang and his counsel; (4) any necessary third party consents shall have been obtained; and (5) VIASPACE shall deliver $4.8 million plus interest in cash to Chang. To our knowledge, all of these criteria, other than the cash payment were met. Even if the Second Closing did not occur, the remaining 30% of IPA BVI was to be transferred by Chang to VGE prior to the Second Closing deadline.

In addition, the Licensor and Chang, the seller of IPA China and IPA BVI, each represented that at least 100 hectares of arable land in Guangdong province in China will be available for grass farming by IPA China within 12 months after the First Closing Date. IPA China secured 45 hectares of arable land in the first quarter of 2009 and leased an additional 55 hectares in the third quarter of 2009. The requirement was met.

On August 21, 2009, the parties entered into a second Amendment to the Purchase Agreement whereby VIASPACE irrevocably assigned to Chang and Licensor the VIASPACE shares issued to Chang and Licensor in the First Closing of the Purchase Agreement. Licensor agreed to limit sales of VIASPACE common shares issued at the First Closing to 8,800,000 shares in any 90-day period.

As required by the Purchase Agreement, VGE filed a Registration Statement on Form S-1 with the SEC on June 3, 2009 covering the resale of a portion of VGE common stock issued pursuant to the Purchase Agreement as permitted by SEC regulations. The SEC declared the VGE Registration Statement on Form S-1 effective December 31, 2009. On January 14, 2010, VGE received approval from the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”) that its shares of common stock were approved for listing on the OTC Bulletin Board under the ticker symbol VGREF.OB. This satisfied the requirement in the Purchase Agreement that VGE stock be listed on a Trading Market.

Following various additional amendments to the Purchase Agreement, the deadline for the Second Closing in which the remaining minority interest of 30% of IPA BVI equity holdings would be transferred to us was February 15, 2010. At the Second Closing deadline, VIASPACE was to pay $4.8 million ("Cash Consideration") plus Interest (as determined below) since the First Closing, in cash to Chang. Interest on the Cash Consideration was to accrue at 6% for the first nine months after the First Closing, and then 18% until June 10, 2009, and then at 6% thereafter. We had control of the assets of IPA BVI through our majority ownership position in VGE and there was no restriction on the Company’s ability to transfer or capitalize on such assets at any time, including prior to the cash payment due Chang from VIASPACE.

The Second Closing did not occur on the February 15, 2010 deadline. As a result, VIASPACE had a contractual obligation to deliver all of the VGE shares it holds to Chang and Chang has an obligation to deliver the remaining 30% of IPA BVI equity to us. However, Chang, VIASPACE and VGE continued negotiating an alternative closing and purchase of IPA.

On April 16, 2010, VIASPACE and Chang entered into a Share Purchase Agreement ("Share Purchase Agreement") pursuant to which Chang would transfer controlling interest of VGE to VIASPACE, or 6,506,000 shares of VGE capital stock, and VIASPACE would grant Chang (i) 241,667,000 newly-issued shares of its common stock, (ii) one share of its Series A Preferred Stock which controls 50.1% of the voting power of VIASPACE equity securities, and (iii) a secured promissory note in the principal amount of $5,331,025 (the "Note").

On May 14, 2010, VIASPACE, Chang and other VGE shareholders closed the transactions contemplated by the Share Purchase Agreement (the "Closing") and in connection with the Closing, VIASPACE, VGE, IPA BVI and IPA China entered into certain agreements with Chang. In particular, each executed (i) a Guarantee with Chang pursuant to which each company guaranteed VIASPACE’s repayment of the Note and (ii) a Security Agreement with Chang in which such company granted a security interest in a significant amount of assets of each company. In addition, VIASPACE also executed stock pledge agreement pledging all of the securities it owns in VGE as collateral for repayment of the Note. VIASPACE also executed a registration rights agreement in which it granted Chang rights to register his newly issued shares of VIASPACE common stock. VGE also executed employment agreements for Carl Kukkonen, CEO; Sung Hsien Chang, President; and Stephen Muzi, Chief Financial Officer.

Our Business

Grass Business Division

Through our acquisition of IPA BVI and IPA China we obtained a worldwide sublicense to cultivate and sell GKG, a natural hybrid, non-genetically modified, fast-growing, perennial grass which we are growing as a dedicated energy crop that can be used to generate low carbon and renewable electricity by direct burning in a biomass power plant, and can be made into pellets that can replace some of the coal in existing power plants thus reducing carbon emissions. GKG may also be used to produce bio methane through anaerobic digestion and as a feedstock for non-food liquid biofuels such as bio ethanol and bio butanol. It can also be used as a feedstock for biochemicals and bio plastics. This perennial grass can grow up to 14 feet in height. It can be harvested several times a year in tropical and semitropical areas with a yield of up to 375 metric tons per hectare (freshly cut, referred to as wet yield). We believe that GKG has the highest yield of any crop. Note that one hectare (ha) is 10,000 square meters and equal to 2.47 US acres or approximately the size of two US football fields.

GKG has been independently tested by multiple potential customers. To our knowledge, the results have been very positive and consistent. GKG has excellent energy content of 18.4 megajoules (MJ) per dry kilogram. Its chemical and physical properties are very similar to corn straw, which is material left behind from the corn plant after the ear of corn has been harvested. Corn straw is used as fuel in many biomass power plants, and DP Clean Tech, a leading international biomass power provider, has declared GKG as suitable for their power plants. The bio methane production from GKG has been tested in three customer laboratories and shows the outstanding production of 91 liters of methane per kilogram of fresh grass. The methane can be used to generate clean electricity or can be burned to produce process heat. There are potentially thousands of biogas plants worldwide that may use GKG. A large European electric utility has tested GKG and examined prototype pellets. In addition to these current markets, GKG can be used as animal feed and has been tested for this purpose.

GKG can also be used as a feedstock to make cellulosic biofuels such as bio ethanol, bio butane and green gasoline, collectively called “Grassoline.” Three companies have recently tested GKG as a potential feedstock for producing biofuels, biochemicals and bio plastics through fermentation method. Laboratory results from these tests show that GKG has almost identical composition including sugar content as corn straw or wheat straw which are the agricultural waste products often targeted as a feedstock for cellulosic biofuels. The projected bio ethanol yield is approximately 80 gallons per dry ton of GKG based on these tests.

Corn straw and wheat straw are the leftovers after food production. This agricultural waste material can only be collected after the food is harvested which means that the feedstock supply is very seasonal and must be stored for a long time--up to one year-- between harvests. To support a single biofuel or power plant, agricultural waste must be collected from farms up to 50 or more miles away. Giant King Grass is a high yield dedicated nonfood energy crop that can be harvested at any time in a tropical or subtropical climate. If the biofuel or power plant is co-located with a GKG plantation, the collection radius will only be about 3 miles. The high yield and logistical advantages mean that GKG can be grown and delivered to a co-located plant at a substantially lower price than currently paid for agricultural waste. The largest operating cost of a biomass power plant or biofuels plant is the cost of the fuel or feedstock, and the low cost and high quality of GKG are of major interest to these customers.

GKG as a dedicated energy crop has generated widespread interest from the renewable energy community. VIASPACE has been invited to make presentations on GKG at international conferences in the US, China, Singapore, Indonesia, Mexico and India.

Energy pellets made from dried GKG can be used as a replacement for coal in electricity generating power plants. Reports by the U.S. Department of Energy state that 15% to 20% of coal may be replaced by burning grass in an existing power plant with only minor modifications. This process called co-firing allows utilization of the large capital investment in existing coal fired power plants while reducing their carbon dioxide emissions by 15 to 20%. GKG and other biomass have lower mercury, arsenic and sulfur emissions than coal.

There is a growing trend towards small dedicated power plants (5-30 megawatts) that are fueled exclusively by biomass such as grass and agricultural waste. For example, since its founding in 2004, Dragon Power (which is now known as DP Clean Tech) in China has built and is operating 20 power plants powered by 100% biomass. On September 2, 2009, VGE and our parent VIASPACE signed a non-binding Memorandum of Understanding (“MOU”) with DP Clean Tech Co. Ltd. of Beijing China. As part of their due diligence, DP Clean Tech commissioned an independent analysis of GKG by the China National Center for Quality Supervision and Test of Coal which confirmed that GKG has an energy content of 18.4 megajoules (MJ) per dry kilogram (4402 kilocalories (kcal) per kilogram). DP Clean Tech declared GKG suitable as a renewable feedstock for generating electric power in their power plants.

On February 9, 2011, our parent VIASPACE signed an MOU with PT Provident Agro of Jakarta Indonesia with the goal to use Giant King Grass as feedstock for a large scale pellet mill to manufacture a minimum of 300,000 metric tonnes per year of pellets for the export market, primarily in Europe. An initial 10 hectare test plot will be established by PT Provident Agro. Provident Agro owns extensive oil palm plantations and land in Sumatra, Kalimantan, and Sulawesi, Indonesia with a total land bank of 150,000 hectares (370,000 acres) producing more than 23,500 tons of crude palm oil each year. Provident Agro is owned 50% by the Saratoga Group and 50% by Provident Capital Indonesia.

On February 23, 2011, our Parent VIASPACE and General Biofuels signed a non-binding MOU that may become an exclusive agreement to develop a large Giant King Grass Plantation and a 250,000 to 400,000 tonne per year biomass pellet plant in the Dominican Republic.

Our strategy has been to build up our grass production capabilities in China where we have 113 ha (280 acres) under cultivation. This land serves as a small scale demonstration plantation and also allows us to provide samples to potential partners and customers; the harvested grass is used in our factory to produce Green Log TM fireplace and campfire logs for the US market; and it is a nursery to provide seedlings for a major expansion. We are in discussions with customers worldwide on GKG plantations co-located with power plants, pellet mills, biogas facilities and biofuel plants. Most of these discussions are covered by executed nondisclosure and non-circumvention agreements.

We are considering leasing additional land in China. We plan to expand our grass business into other areas of the world, and are in discussions with owners and developers of power plants, pellet mills and biogas facilities in Indonesia, Thailand, Malaysia, Cambodia, Singapore, Philippines, India, Africa, United States and Europe.

Having a reliable source of feedstock is critical for all energy users of biomass. Today, power plants and pellet mills use agricultural and forestry waste such as corn straw, wheat straw, rice husks and wood waste as feedstock. Increasing demand for biomass has caused the price of this agricultural and forestry waste to rise dramatically and in some places it is in short supply. Biomass supply issues have caused power plants to become unprofitable, idle or abandoned. It is now well-recognized that dedicated energy crops such as GKG are necessary for successful operation of biomass processing facilities. Agricultural waste will still be used, but the dedicated energy crop will provide a reliable and consistent base. In part because of the feedstock uncertainty issue, many proposed biomass power plant and biogas projects have been unable to obtain financing. A dedicated energy crop will help solve this obstacle.

Because of its high yield, GKG provides feedstock with the lowest use of land and we believe therefore the lowest cost. Any other energy crop with half the yield requires twice the land and other costs are nearly doubled. GKG not only allows a reliable source of feedstock supply, but offers lower cost.

Another major advantage of GKG is that it is not tied to a food crop, and it can be harvested at any time-- particularly in a tropical or subtropical area. When corn straw is used, you have to wait for the corn to mature before you have any feedstock. At the corn harvest, a lot of feedstock is available all at one time. This corn straw has to be collected, stored and used until the next corn harvest. This is a major logistics issue. If the climate permits, GKG can be planted so that it matures continuously and allows just-in-time harvesting.

Transportation applications requiring liquid fuels and biofuels have great potential. Most biofuels are made from plants which are a renewable resource, and use of some biofuels can significantly reduce carbon emissions. Growing grass or any plant matter absorbs carbon dioxide from the atmosphere during photosynthesis and stores it in the plant tissue. Subsequent burning of the grass does emit carbon dioxide into the atmosphere; however the next crop of grass 60 days later absorbs carbon dioxide. If the process of growing, fertilizing, harvesting and transporting the grass can be done with minimal use of fossil fuels, a grass-based fuel can be a carbon neutral or low carbon process. Burning coal, oil, or natural gas emits carbon dioxide without any mechanism to remove this carbon dioxide from the atmosphere.

Ethanol, which is the same alcohol in beer, wine or liquor, is the most well-known biofuel. Ethanol is blended with gasoline and burned in conventional automobile engines that have minor modifications. In the U.S. today almost all ethanol is made from corn. Government subsidies for ethanol have made ethanol price competitive with gasoline and much of the US corn crop now goes toward ethanol production. These subsidies have led to an increased demand for corn for ethanol production. According to the Money Morning Corn Price Report (quoting the US Department of Agriculture) one third of U.S. corn is devoted to ethanol production, and this is expected to increase in the future. Corn prices have risen from about $2.00 per bushel at the beginning of 2006 to a peak of $7.65 in mid-2008. Corn prices dropped during the economic recession, but have been rising rapidly, and corn is currently $6.71 per bushel. More land in the U.S. is devoted to corn production at the expense of other crops and the prices of these other crops have risen as well.

Higher food prices have led to food shortages around the globe and it has been argued that people are starving so we can make the fuel to drive our cars. This argument has resonated with many world leaders and resulted in a global effort to derive biofuels from plants that are not in the human food chain. These are called cellulosic biofuels.

Cellulosic biofuels are based on nonfood plants including grass, shrubs and trees. These plants do not have a lot of sugar and cannot be fermented directly like corn. They do, however, have a lot of cellulose in their leaves, stalks and branches which contain carbon and hydrogen which can then be converted into ethanol called cellulosic ethanol. GKG has been recently tested and shown to have potential for producing cellulosic biofuels including ethanol and for making biochemicals and bio plastics using a fermentation process.

VGE has two revenue models for GKG: 1. grass plantation integrated with a power plant or processing facility such as a pellet mill under company or joint venture control, and 2. contract plantation establishment, support and licensing for a customer that owns and operates the plantation and power plant.

In China we are pursuing the integrated plantation and processing facility model. We lease the land and employ labor and management to grow GKG and use it to produce Green LogsTM in our factory. The grass be used to supply domestic Chinese biomass energy markets, or exported in pelletized form, to energy markets globally. We will manage and control the supply chain from initial land preparation through the FOB source shipment point for the feed or energy market. We may pursue this model using only our own capital resources, or we may elect to use joint ventures with local landowners, energy equipment manufacturers, power plant owner/operators and/or capital providers. The terms of these joint ventures will be negotiated on a case-by-case basis.

Under a contract plantation establishment and licensing model, the customer would provide the land, labor and management and be responsible for growing GKG. We will provide initial seedlings, crop management services and knowledge transfer for a negotiated price. In addition, there would be an ongoing license fee based on grass production.

We are in discussions with potential joint venture partners and customers that have land and the ability to grow the grass in other countries in Asia, Africa, India and the America’s.

Management believes both models will be important contributors to our revenue streams. We believe all our revenues initially will result from the integrated plantation & end-user model. Rapid global expansion requires local joint venture partners that have land and labor, but lack the energy crop and the expertise to grow it. The contract plantation establishment and licensing model with joint venture partners will be used for most of these projects. The company may also serve as developer for integrated Giant King Grass plantations and bioenergy projects

In May 2010, the Company announced its first renewable energy/biomass product for sale: Green LogTM fireplace and campfire logs manufactured from Giant King Grass. The U.S. distributor of Green Logs is Georgia-based JJ International, Inc., since 1988 a nationwide supplier of indoor and outdoor products for the home. JJ International is a related party of the Company as it is solely owned by Sung Hsien Chang, our President. We believe Green Logs are the first manufactured fire logs to be produced solely from a dedicated renewable energy crop. Green Logs have a zero net-carbon footprint, completely avoid the use of petroleum products which also produce net carbon emissions, and burn up to 66% longer compared to conventional manufactured logs currently being sold. Since the Company is vertically integrated-- both growing Giant King Grass and manufacturing and distributing Green Logs-- we can offer Green Logs as a quality product and at a lower price than competitors. Green Logs are the Company’s first product for the renewable energy market and exemplify the Company's ability to convert Giant King Grass into beneficial, competitive biomass products. Manufactured fire logs represent a $400 million annual market in North America. With more than 100 million logs-made primarily of wood chips and sawdust-burned each year, we see an opportunity for Green Logs, which offer an environmentally friendly manufactured log. Green Logs also generate greater heat output than conventional logs, and its non-chemical, natural campfire aroma we believe makes it an even more appealing alternative.

Green Logs are manufactured at the Company's grass plantation and processing facility in China's Guangdong province. The factory was completed and manufacturing equipment was installed in April.

Framed Art Business Division

Our subsidiaries, IPA BVI and IPA China (collectively “IPA”) manufacture high quality, copyrighted, framed artwork in its factory in Guangzhou China, and sell the art to large US retailers through its sales organization in Atlanta, Georgia. IPA is a manufacturer and wholesaler of framed art.

The factory is on 1.6 hectares of land in China including two manufacturing buildings and one employee dorm and a dining facility. IPA, with its framed art business, has an established and stable production facility in China and a sales and distribution network in the United States.

The acquisition of IPA was a strategic move to acquire its revenue and profit from its current framed art business, as well as the grass business. With the profits from the framed art business, we are aggressively building the grass business without having to access external capital. We are committed to grow this business by providing top-quality product at an attractive price for our retail chain and other customers.

The Company works with buyers from retail chains and their in-house designers to choose prints and other art forms from catalogs of copyrighted and licensed work. We only purchase prints from reputable publishing companies with whom we have long-standing relationships, and such companies have guaranteed to us that there are no counterfeits and that all royalties have been paid. We then mockup the combination of art, mattes and frames for the customer. Once the customer decides on a print, matte and frame combination, we ship the prints to our factory in Guangzhou, China. The mattes, frame moldings and glass are sourced in China. A typical order is 1,400 units of a specific design and a customer usually orders several different designs which are packed in several containers and shipped directly to the customer in the US We provide prints, frames and packaging that are all of high quality. An example of quality packaging is our use of protective clear plastic covers on the corners of the frame. The covers provide protection during shipping and handling, but are transparent and do not obscure the artwork on the display shelf as conventional cardboard corner protectors do. Our customers interact closely with our quality control department in China. The customers make detailed inspections of the artwork before they authorize shipment to the US. Our framed artwork typically retails for $50-$300.

Research and Development

The Company does not spend funds on research and development expenses.

Competition

Framed Art Business

There are many framed art companies that compete with IPA. For example, ICA Home Decor, Crown Arts, Wendover Art, Midwest Art and many more in the US, China and other countries. IPA benefits from having its own factory in China and concentrates on large customers that typically order framed art work by the container load with a typical order of 1,400 copies of a single design. These customers generally have many retail stores in their chains. IPA only manufactures art after an order is placed and has virtually no inventory of framed art. IPA guarantees its customers that all art is legitimate with full royalties paid, and that it will not sell the same product to another customer. IPA sources high quality frame moldings, mattes and glass in China, and assembles the framed art in its factory in China. IPA is able to control its expenses through its relationships with suppliers and control quality by assembly at its factory in China. We believe that these processes allow IPA's products to be sold at a favorable price in a competitive environment.

Grass Business Division

Many companies, universities and research laboratories worldwide are investigating grass as a feedstock for cellulosic ethanol and other applications. Monsanto is an example of a large company focusing on grass. Ceres is an example of a startup company focusing on biomass and grass in particular. Much of the competition is looking at miscanthus or switchgrass. These grasses are suitable for temperate areas. Much of the competition also is focused on selling seeds. The VIASPACE Green Energy GKG is a natural hybrid that is not genetically modified nor generally available, and to our knowledge no one else is growing GKG, as a commercial crop. Based on publicly available data on switchgrass and miscanthus, compared to our data on GKG, we believe that GKG has higher productivity than these and other competing grasses. GKG is most suitable for tropical and subtropical areas, which are the focus of the company’s efforts. GKG is propagated by seedlings not by seeds. VIASPACE Green Energy is focusing on projects involving growing the grass and securing long-term supply contracts for biofuel production, as a replacement for coal and electricity generation, and as animal feed. With long-term supply contracts and joint ventures, we plan to capture these recurring revenue streams.

Other grasses such as alfalfa are suitable for animal feed and are also competitors of GKG.

Customers

All of our current framed artwork customers are national US retailers. For 2010 and 2009, sales to one customer, Hobby Lobby Stores, comprised 82% and 79%, respectively, of our total revenues. We believe this concentration of sales made to a small number of customers will continue in the near future. A loss of any customer by us could significantly reduce our future revenues.

Our grass business generated its first revenues in 2010 for its Green Log fireplace logs. Although the Company’s focus for revenues is using GKG as a dedicated energy crop for co-fired power plants or biomass power plants, the Company has expanded its Green Log business which will be an immediate short term source of revenues.

We have had discussions and meetings with potential grass plantation customers in the following countries: Thailand, Indonesia, Cambodia, Dominican Republic, India, Africa, Indonesia, Brazil and the Philippines.

Suppliers

We purchase raw materials such as glass panes and mattes for our picture frames from third party vendors. We do not rely on any sole source vendor. We believe we have a multiple source supplier base that allows us to utilize numerous vendors and obtain reduced prices for our supplies, components and reduce product costs while maintaining high quality.

With our 110 ha nursery, we currently have enough GKG growing in our land under cultivation to supply seedlings for customer needs.

Marketing

We deploy a targeted partner-customer approach intended to establish key relationships with the appropriate decision makers of our broad market. This approach also includes invited presentations at industry workshops and conferences and participation at trade industry events.

We send e-mails to current and prospective users and partners regularly that contain invitations to visit various pages or features on our websites. Our ongoing effort to update our customer list is also an opportunity to build and reinforce the personal contacts that are critical in servicing our customer’s needs.

Intellectual Property

Grass License

IPA China received its sublicense authority to obtain and grow GKG from China Gate Technology Co. Ltd., a Brunei Darussalam company ("Licensor"), in an agreement dated November 11, 2008. The agreement does not provide any limitation on IPA China’s ability to grow, harvest and market the grass anywhere in the world. No term length was specified in the agreement. To our knowledge, China Gate has not entered into such license agreements with any other party. The agreement between China Gate and IPA China enables us to plant our seedlings in other geographic regions outside Guangdong province and North America.

Art License

We purchase the copyrighted artwork that is placed into our picture frames from reputable publishers who pay the appropriate royalties to the artists. These are companies we have longstanding relationships with, and we believe the chances that such artwork copyrights have not been obtained is minimal.

Employees

As of December 31, 2010 we have 58 full time employees, 53 of whom are based in China and 5 in the US. We also have 26 part time employees, 25 of whom are based in China and 1 in the US. We believe that our relations with our employees are good. We have never had a work stoppage, and our employees are not subject to a collective bargaining agreement.

Regulatory Issues

None

Trademarks

The Company has made trademark applications for “GIANT KING” grass and products made from GKG, and “GREEN LOG” fireplace and campfire logs.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

Our business is subject to a number of risks. You should carefully consider the following risk factors, together with all of the other information included or incorporated by reference in this report, before you decide whether to purchase our common stock. The risks set out below are not the only risks we face. If any of the following risks occur, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be materially adversely affected. In such case, the trading price of our common stock could decline, and you may lose all or part of your investment. We wish to caution that the following important factors, among others, in some cases have affected and in the future could affect our actual results and could cause such results to differ materially from those expressed in forward-looking statements made by or on behalf of us.

Risks Related to Our Business

Risks Relating to Our Entire Business

Our limited operating history makes it difficult to evaluate our future prospects and results of operations.

We have a limited operating history. Our consolidated affiliated entities, IPA BVI and IPA China, each commenced operations in the artwork business in 2003 and although we have profit from our artwork business, we have yet to achieve profitability from our grass business. Accordingly, you should consider our future prospects in light of the risks and uncertainties experienced by early stage companies in the manufacturing and agricultural industries in China. Some of these risks and uncertainties relate to our ability to:

	●	maintain or establish a competitive position in China and compete in each of our business segments with Chinese and international companies, many of which have longer operating histories and greater financial resources than we do, and thus making it difficult to compete;

	●	continue to offer commercially successful products to attract and retain a larger base of customers of both of our artwork and grass business goods and products;

	●	retain access to the crop land we currently use for production of our products and obtain access to additional crop land for expansion;

	●	maintain effective control of our costs and expenses in the grass business due to our early start-up nature and inexperience in managing growth; and

	●	retain our management, including our Chief Executive Officer Carl Kukkonen and our President Sung Hsien Chang, and skilled technical staff and recruit additional key employees.

If we are unsuccessful in addressing any of these risks and uncertainties, our business, financial condition and results of operations may be materially and adversely affected.

Our future growth prospects may be affected if we are unable to obtain additional capital.

While we believe we have sufficient cash for the next 12 months, we may require additional cash to grow our grass business. The sale or issuance of additional equity securities could result in dilution to our shareholders. The incurrence of indebtedness would result in increased debt service obligations and could result in operating and financing covenants that would restrict our operations. We may not be able to obtain financing in amounts or on terms acceptable to us, if at all. We may also not be able to secure or repay debt incurred to fund operations. As a result, our operating results and financial condition may be materially and adversely affected.

Our anticipated and any other employee share options, restricted shares or other share incentives in the future, will adversely affect our net income.

We adopted a 2009 share incentive plan and authorized 1,400,000 share options under the plan in June 2009. We are required to account for share-based compensation in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718, Share-Based Payment, which requires a company to recognize, as an expense, the fair value of share options and other share-based compensation to employees based on the fair value of equity awards on the date of the grant (taking into account the prices payable by the award recipients), with the compensation expense recognized over the period in which the recipient is required to provide service in exchange for the equity award. On March 25, 2010, VGE granted stock options to the following: Carl Kukkonen, VGE CEO 550,000 stock options; Sung Hsien Chang, VGE President 550,000 stock options; and Stephen Muzi, VGE CFO 250,000 stock options. There remain 50,000 share options that could be issued under the Plan.

If we grant any additional options, restricted shares or other equity incentives in the future, we could incur significant compensation charges equal to the fair value of the additional options, restricted shares and other equity incentives (taking into account the prices payable by the award recipients) and our net income could be adversely affected.

We are substantially dependent upon our key personnel, particularly Dr. Carl Kukkonen, our Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Sung Hsien Chang, our President and Mr. Stephen Muzi, our Chief Financial Officer.

Our performance is substantially dependent on the performance of our executive officers and key employees. In particular, the services of:

	·	Dr. Carl Kukkonen, Chief Executive Officer.
	·	Mr. Sung Hsien Chang, President.
	·	Mr. Stephen Muzi, Chief Financial Officer.

These officers would be difficult to replace. We do not have “key person” life insurance policies on any of our employees. The loss of the services of any of our executive officers or other key employees could substantially impair our ability to successfully implement our business plan.

We rely on our management’s experience in product development, business operations, sales and marketing, and on their relationships with distributors and relevant government authorities. If one or more of our key management personnel are unable or unwilling to continue in their present positions, we may not be able to replace them easily or at all. The loss of the services of our key management personnel, in the absence of suitable replacements, could have a material adverse effect on our operations and financial condition, and we may incur additional expenses to recruit and train personnel. Each member of our management team has entered into an employment agreement with us.

An impairment in the carrying value of goodwill could negatively impact our consolidated results of operations and net worth.

Goodwill is initially recorded at fair value and is not amortized, but is reviewed for impairment at least annually or more frequently if impairment indicators are present. In assessing the carrying value of goodwill, we make estimates and assumptions about sales, operating margins, growth rates and discount rates based on budgets, business plans, economic projections, anticipated future cash flows and marketplace data. There are inherent uncertainties related to these factors and management’s judgment in applying these factors. Goodwill valuations have been calculated using an income approach based on the present value of future cash flows of each reporting unit and are believed to reflect market participant views which would exist in an exit transaction. Under the income approach, we are required to make various judgmental assumptions about appropriate discount rates. Disruptions in global credit and other financial markets and deterioration of economic conditions, could, among other things, cause us to increase the discount rate used in the goodwill valuations. We could be required to evaluate the recoverability of goodwill prior to the annual assessment if we experience disruptions to the business, unexpected significant declines in operating results, divestiture of a significant component of our business or sustained market capitalization declines. These types of events and the resulting analyses could result in goodwill impairment charges in the future, which could be substantial. As of December 31, 2010, we had $12.3 million of goodwill, which represented 70.1% of total assets.

Failure of our internal controls over financial reporting could harm our business and financial results.

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting. Internal control over financial reporting is a process to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting for external purposes in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting is not intended to provide absolute assurance that we would prevent or detect a misstatement of our financial statements or fraud. Our growth and acquisition of other agribusiness companies with procedures not identical to our own could place significant additional pressure on our system of internal control over financial reporting. Any failure to maintain an effective system of internal control over financial reporting could limit our ability to report our financial results accurately and timely or to detect and prevent fraud. A significant financial reporting failure or material weakness in internal control over financial reporting could cause a loss of investor confidence and decline in the market price of our common stock.

We have limited insurance coverage in China.

The insurance industry in China is still at an early stage of development. Insurance companies in China offer limited insurance products. Other than automobile insurance on certain vehicles and property and casualty insurance on some of our assets, we do not have insurance coverage on our other assets or inventories and do not have insurance to cover our business or interruption of our business, litigation or product liability. We determined the costs of insuring these risks and the difficulties associated with acquiring such insurance on commercially reasonable terms make it impractical for us to have such insurance. Any uninsured occurrence of loss or damage to property, litigation or business disruption may result in our incurring substantial costs and the diversion of resources, which could have an adverse effect on our operating results and financial condition.

We may not pay dividends.

We have not previously paid any cash dividends, and we do not anticipate paying any dividends on our ordinary shares. Dividend policy is subject to the discretion of our Board of Directors (“BOD”) and will depend on, among other things, our earnings, financial condition, capital requirements and other factors. Under BVI law, we may only pay dividends from profits or credit from the share premium account (the amount paid over par value), and we must be solvent before and after the dividend payment. If we determine to pay dividends on any of our ordinary shares in the future, as a holding company, we will be dependent on receipt of funds from our operating subsidiaries.

Risks Related to our Grass Business

We currently have no meaningful customers for our grass business although we are starting to make progress. If we are unable to attract any customers, our grass business will suffer.

We commenced our grass business in October 2008 and have not recorded substantial revenues yet. While we believe we will be able to attract customers and achieve revenues, we cannot assure you we will. There is no assurance that our potential customers will determine that using GKG for biomass or animal feed purposes will be commercially viable. Further such customers may find other grass or plant products superior to GKG for their needs. If we fail to attract a sufficient number of customers that purchase a sufficient amount of grass, our grass business will fail.

We could be subject to intellectual property rights claims regarding the seedlings.

We are subject to the risk that the seedlings we license infringe or will infringe upon patents, copyrights, trademarks or other intellectual property rights held by third parties. We acquired rights to grow GKG from a seller which we believe held such rights. If that party does not hold such rights, we may be subject to legal proceedings and claims relating to the intellectual property of others. If any such claim arises in the future, litigation or other dispute resolution proceedings may be necessary to retain our ability to offer our current and future products, which could result in substantial costs and diversion of our management resources and attention even if we prevail in contesting such claims. If we are found to have violated the intellectual property rights of others, we may be enjoined from using such intellectual property rights, incur additional costs to license or develop alternative products and be forced to pay fines and damages, any of which could materially and adversely affect our business and results of operations, or terminate our grass business entirely.

We have a sublicense relationship with respect to the GKG license. If the license from our sublicensor is cancelled, terminated or otherwise is adversely affected, our sublicense may be materially affected.

We sublicense our intellectual property to the GKG from China Gate which licenses the intellectual property from the original licensor. The term of this license is not specified. China Gate has informed us that they have an exclusive license to the GKG in Guangdong province and North America and have granted us an exclusive sublicense to the same region. However, because we do not have a direct relationship with the holder of the intellectual property, any material adverse effect to the GKG license held by our sublicensor would affect our rights as the sublicensee. The original licensor is aware of our sublicense and has consented to it. For instance, if our sublicensor fails to perform its obligations under its license with the original licensor, we would have no recourse against the original licensor and our rights with respect to the sublicense may be materially affected.

Natural or man-made disasters could damage our crop production, which would cause us to suffer losses of production and a material reduction of revenues.

We produce GKG in the Guangdong province of China. This grass is subject to the risks associated with growing crops, including natural disasters such as drought, pestilence, plant diseases and insect infestations, and man-made disasters such as environmental contamination. Other man-made incidents may damage our products, such as arson or other acts that may adversely affect our grass inventory in the winter storage season. Furthermore, natural or man-made disasters may cause farmers to migrate from the farmland, which would decrease the number of end users of our products. We are particularly susceptible to disasters or other incidents in the Guangdong province, where we have the greatest concentration of our operations. In the event of a widespread failure of our grass, we could likely sustain substantial loss of revenues and suffer substantial operating losses. We do not have insurance to protect against such a risk and we are not aware of the availability of any such insurance in China.

Our growth prospects may be materially and adversely affected if we are unable to develop or acquire new products or to produce our existing products in sufficient quantities.

We believe the future growth of our Company will depend on the value of our grass business for biofuel, power plant, or animal feed purposes. The ability to develop orders from customers, if at all, is uncertain due to several factors, many of which are beyond our control. These include changing customer preferences, competitive price pressures, the failure to adapt products to meet the evolving demands of customers in China, the development of higher-quality products by our competitors, and general economic conditions. If we are unable to develop or acquire additional products that meet the demands of our customers, if our competitors develop products that are favored by our customers in China, or if we are unable to produce our existing products in sufficient quantities, our growth prospects may be materially and adversely affected and our revenues and profitability may decline.

Our plans to increase production capacity in the grass business and expand into new markets may not be successful, which could adversely affect our operating results.

Our plans to develop our grass business and its production capacity has placed and will continue to place, substantial demands on our managerial, operational, technological and other resources. We are addressing three markets for GKG: feedstock for low-carbon liquid biofuels for transportation; fuel to burn in electricity generating power plants; and animal feed. We are also reviewing opportunities to grow grass in other areas of China, India, Indonesia, other areas of Southeast Asia and South America. These represent great opportunities for the company, but also represent a potential risk in losing focus and diluting management attention. If we fail to establish and manage the growth of our product offerings, operations and distribution channels effectively and efficiently in such business, we could suffer a material and adverse effect on our operations and our ability to capitalize on new business opportunities, either of which could materially and adversely affect our operating results.

We will need to develop new sales channels into the biofuel, electric power plant, and animal feed markets. Expansion into new markets may present operating and marketing challenges. If we are unable to anticipate the changing demands that expanding operations will impose on our production systems and distribution channels, or if we fail to develop our production systems and distribution channels to meet the demand, we could experience an increase in expenses and our results of operations could be adversely affected.

Our financial results are sensitive to fluctuations in market prices of the products that we offer.

The profitability of our operations is affected by the selling prices of our products. We intend to benchmark the prices of our grass against the prevailing domestic market prices of grass of similar quality and attributes, and set the prices accordingly. Historically, prices of grass and other agricultural products in China have been volatile, primarily due to fluctuations in supply and demand. If the prices for such products decline in the future, and we are unable sell more products and/or reduce our cost of sales, our revenues will decrease and our profitability will be adversely affected.

The Chinese agricultural market is highly competitive and our growth and results of operations may be adversely affected if we are unable to compete effectively.

The agricultural market in China is highly fragmented, largely regional and competitive and we expect competition to increase and intensify within the sector. We face significant competition in our grass business. Many of our competitors have greater financial, research and development and other resources than we have. Competition may also develop from consolidation or other market forces within the grass industry in China. Because our licensor has no restrictions outside of Guangdong province and North America, we have no means to restrict our licensor from selling GKG to third parties throughout the rest of the world. Although we believe we are the only business that will grow a significant amount of GKG sufficient to support biomass related power plants in China, we have no assurance this is the case. Other growers of GKG could potentially compete with us. In addition, our competitors may develop other types of grasses that are superior to GKG and more favored by our potential customers. Our business could be materially and adversely affected by such competition.

Our competitors may be better able to take advantage of industry consolidation and acquisition opportunities than we are. The reform and restructuring of state-owned equity in agricultural enterprises could likely lead to the reallocation of market share in the grass industry, and our competitors may increase their market share by participating in the restructuring of the state-owned seed companies. Such privatization would likely mean that these producers will need to develop more efficient and commercially viable business models in order to survive. In addition, the PRC government currently restricts foreign ownership of any domestic agricultural development and production business to no more than 50% unless otherwise approved by the PRC government. When and if such restrictions are lifted, multinational corporations engaged in the seed business may expand into the agricultural market in China. These companies have significantly greater financial, technological and other resources than us and may become our major competitors in China. As competition intensifies, our margins may be compressed by more competitive pricing in the short term and may continue to be compressed in the long term and we may lose our market share and experience a reduction in our revenues and profit.

If we are unable to estimate customers’ future needs accurately and to match our production to the demand of our direct customers, our business, financial condition and results of operations may be materially and adversely affected.

Due to the nature of the grass industry, we normally grow according to our production plan before we sell and deliver grass to distributors and our direct customers. The potential end users of our grass, such as biofuel providers and livestock owners, generally make purchasing decisions for our products based on market prices, economic and weather conditions and other factors that we may not be able to anticipate accurately in advance. If we fail to accurately estimate the volume and types of products sought by our customers, we may produce more grass that is in demand by our distributors resulting in aged crops. In the event we decide not to sell the crop due to our concerns about the quality, the aged inventory could eventually be sold at greatly reduced prices. Aged inventory could result in asset impairment, in which case we would suffer a loss and incur an increase in our operating expenses. On the other hand, if we underestimate demand, we may not able to satisfy our customers’ demand for grass, and thus damage our customer relations and end-user loyalty. Our failure to estimate our customers’ future needs and to match our production to the demand of our direct customers may materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Grass prices and sales volumes may decrease in any given year with a corresponding reduction in sales, margins and profitability.

There may be periods of instability during which commodity prices and sales volumes may fluctuate greatly. Commodities can be affected by general economic conditions, weather, disease outbreaks and factors affecting demand, such as availability of financing and competition. Our attempts to differentiate our products from those of other grass producers have not prevented the grass market from having the characteristics of a commodity market. As a result, the price we are able to demand for our grass is dependent on the size of the supply of our grass and the grass of other producers. Therefore, the potential exists for fluctuation in supply, and consequently in price, in our own markets, even in the absence of significant external events that might cause volatility. As a result, the amount of revenue that we receive in any given year is subject to change. As production levels are determined prior to the time that the volume and the market price for orders is known, we may have too much or too little product available, which may materially and adversely affect our revenues, margins and profitability.

Risks Related to our Framed Art Business

We are heavily dependent on one major customer for our revenues

For 2010 and 2009, sales to one customer comprised 82% and 79%, respectively, of our total revenues. We believe this concentration of sales to one customer will continue in the near future. We do not have a long-term contract with this customer. A loss of this customer or even a dramatic reduction in sales could significantly reduce our future revenues and profitability.

We may not be able to compete with existing or potential competitors in our framed art business

The visual content and art framing businesses are highly competitive. We believe competitive factors include quality of images, branding, reputation, service, breadth of content, depth of content, technology, pricing, and sales and marketing. Overall, many of our competitors are significantly larger, have far greater resources, a notably larger customer base, a far greater content provider base, significantly more technology infrastructure, and more well-recognized names in the marketplace than we do, all of which may make it difficult for us to compete effectively.

We rely on outside content providers; therefore our revenues will be materially and adversely affected without adequate supply of content

We rely on outside sources to provide us visual content for our artwork, which we aggregate and make available to our customers. Although we work with entities we believe are reputable vendors, we cannot assure you such outside content provider will have the resources or personnel to provide us with content and artwork that is attractive to potential customers. If we are not able to acquire quality content in sufficient quantities that are favored by our customers, our revenue will be materially and adversely affected.

We may be subject to intellectual property rights claims or other claims in the future which could result in substantial costs and diversion of our financial and management resources away from our business.

We are subject to the risk that the products, technology and processes we license infringe or will infringe upon patents, copyrights, trademarks or other intellectual property rights held by third parties. We purchase copyrighted artwork prints from reputable publishers that have license agreements with the copyright holders. These publishers will indemnify us in the event that an infringement action occurs. We may be subject to legal proceedings and claims relating to the intellectual property of others. If any such claim arises in the future, litigation or other dispute resolution proceedings may be necessary to retain our ability to offer our current and future products, which could result in substantial costs and diversion of our management resources and attention even if we prevail in contesting such claims. If we are found to have violated the intellectual property rights of others, we may be enjoined from using such intellectual property rights, incur additional costs to license or develop alternative products and be forced to pay fines and damages, any of which could materially and adversely affect our business and results of operations, or terminate our grass business entirely.

Our failure to protect our intellectual property rights may undermine our competitive position, and legal action to protect our intellectual property rights may be costly and divert our management resources.

We rely primarily on trademark law, and other contractual restrictions to protect our intellectual property. We also rely on Licensor and its licensor to protect our licensed intellectual properties. These afford only limited protection and the actions we take to protect our intellectual property rights may not be adequate. Third parties may infringe or misappropriate our licensed proprietary technologies or other intellectual property rights, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or operating results. Preventing unauthorized use of proprietary technology can be difficult and expensive. Also, litigation may be necessary to enforce our intellectual property rights, protect our trade secrets or determine the validity and scope of the proprietary rights of others. There is a risk the outcome of such potential litigation will not be in our favor. Such litigation may be costly and may divert management attention as well as expend other resources which could otherwise have been devoted to our business. An adverse determination in any such litigation will impair our intellectual property rights and may harm our business, prospects and reputation. In addition, we have no insurance coverage against litigation costs and would have to bear all costs arising from such litigation to the extent we are unable to recover them from other parties. The occurrence of any of the foregoing may have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Historically, implementation of PRC intellectual property-related laws has been lacking, primarily because of ambiguities in the PRC laws and difficulties in enforcement. Accordingly, intellectual property rights and confidentiality protections in China may not be as effective as in the United States or other countries, which increases the risk that we may not be able to adequately protect our intellectual property.

We may not possess all the licenses required to operate our business, or may fail to maintain the licenses we currently hold. This could subject us to fines and other penalties, which could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations.

We are required to hold a variety of permits and licenses to conduct our framed art and grass businesses in China. To our knowledge, we hold all the permits and licenses required for each of our business segments; however we cannot assure you we possess all the permits and licenses required for each of our business segments. In addition, there may be circumstances under which the approvals, permits or licenses granted by the governmental agencies are subject to change without substantial advance notice, and it is possible we could fail to obtain the approvals, permits or licenses required to expand our business as we intend. If we fail to obtain or to maintain such permits or licenses or renewals are granted with onerous conditions, we could be subject to fines and other penalties and be limited in the number or the quality of the products that we would be able to offer. As a result, our business, result of operations and financial condition could be materially and adversely affected.

We may be subject to product quality or liability claims, which may cause us to incur litigation expenses and to devote significant management time to defending such claims and, if determined adversely to us, could require us to pay significant damage awards.

Although we are not subject to any claims now, we may be subject to legal proceedings and claims from time to time relating to, among other things, our products in the future. The defense of these proceedings and claims could be costly and time-consuming and significantly divert the efforts and resources of our management personnel. An adverse determination in any such proceedings could subject us to significant liability. In addition, any such proceeding, even if ultimately determined in our favor, could damage our market reputation and prevent us from maintaining or increasing sales and market share. Protracted litigation could also result in our customers or potential customers deferring or limiting their purchase of our products.

Risks Related to Doing Business in China

PRC laws and regulations governing our businesses are uncertain. If we are found to be in violation, we could be subject to sanctions. In addition, changes in such PRC laws and regulations may materially and adversely affect our business.

The PRC government has broad discretion in dealing with violations of laws and regulations, including levying fines, revoking business and other licenses and requiring actions necessary for compliance. In particular, licenses and permits issued or granted to us by relevant governmental bodies may be revoked at a later time by higher regulatory bodies. We cannot predict the effect of the interpretation of existing or new PRC laws or regulations on our businesses. We cannot assure you our current ownership and operating structure would not be found in violation of any current or future PRC laws or regulations. As a result, we may be subject to sanctions, including fines, and could be required to restructure our operations or cease to provide certain services. Any of these or similar actions could significantly disrupt our business operations or restrict us from conducting a substantial portion of our business operations, which could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Adverse changes in political and economic policies of the PRC government could have a material adverse effect on the overall economic growth of China, which could reduce the demand for our products and materially adversely affect our competitive position.

We conduct substantially all of our operations and generate most of our revenues in China. Accordingly, our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects are affected significantly by economic, political and legal developments in China. The PRC economy differs from the economies of most developed countries in many respects, including:

the higher level of government involvement;

the early stage of development of the market-oriented sector of the economy;

the rapid growth rate;

the higher level of control over foreign exchange; and

the allocation of resources.

While the PRC economy has grown significantly since the late 1970s, the growth has been uneven, both geographically and among various sectors of the economy. The PRC government has implemented various measures to encourage economic growth and guide the allocation of resources. Some of these measures benefit the overall PRC economy, but may also have a negative effect on our business. For example, our financial condition and results of operations may be adversely affected by government control over capital investments or changes in tax regulations that are applicable to us.

The PRC economy has been transitioning from a planned to a more market-oriented economy. Although the PRC government has in recent years implemented measures emphasizing the utilization of market forces for economic reform, the PRC government continues to exercise significant control over economic growth in China through the allocation of resources, controlling payment of foreign currency-denominated obligations, setting monetary policy and imposing policies that impact particular industries or companies in different ways.

Uncertainties with respect to the PRC legal system could limit the legal protections available to you and us.

We conduct substantially all of our business through our operating subsidiary in the PRC, IPA China, which is a wholly foreign owned enterprise in China. IPA China is generally subject to laws and regulations applicable to foreign investment in China and, in particular, laws applicable to foreign-invested enterprises. The PRC legal system is based on written statutes, and prior court decisions may be cited for reference but have limited precedential value. Since 1979, a series of new PRC laws and regulations has significantly enhanced the protections afforded to various forms of foreign investments in China. However, since these laws and regulations are relatively new and the PRC legal system continues to rapidly evolve, the interpretations of many laws, regulations and rules are not always uniform and enforcement of these laws, regulations and rules involve uncertainties, which may limit legal protections available to you and us. In addition, any litigation in China may be protracted and result in substantial costs and diversion of resources and management attention.

China’s economic policies could affect our business.

A substantial portion of our assets are located in China and a significant portion of our revenue is derived from our operations in China. Accordingly, our results of operations and prospects are subject, to a significant extent, to the economic, political and legal developments in China. While China’s economy has experienced significant growth in the past twenty years, such growth has been uneven, both geographically and among various sectors of the economy. The Chinese government has implemented various measures to encourage economic growth and guide the allocation of resources. Some of these measures benefit the overall economy of the PRC, but they may also have a negative effect on us. For example, our operating results and financial condition may be adversely affected by the government control over capital investments or changes in tax regulations. The economy of the PRC has been changing from a planned economy to a more market-oriented economy. In recent years, the Chinese government has implemented measures emphasizing the utilization of market forces for economic reform and the reduction of state ownership of productive assets, and the establishment of corporate governance in business enterprises. However, a substantial portion of productive assets in the PRC are still owned by the Chinese government. In addition, the Chinese government continues to play a significant role in regulating industry development by imposing industrial policies. It also exercises significant control over the PRC’s economic growth through the allocation of resources, the control of payment of foreign currency-denominated obligations, the setting of monetary policy and the provision of preferential treatment to particular industries or companies.

Restrictions on currency exchange may limit our ability to receive and use our revenues effectively.

Most of our revenues and expenses are denominated in Renminbi. Under PRC law, the Renminbi is currently convertible under the “current account,” which includes dividends and trade and service-related foreign exchange transactions, but not under the “capital account,” which includes foreign direct investment and loans. Currently, IPA China may purchase foreign currencies for settlement of current account transactions, including payments of dividends to us, without the approval of the State Administration of Foreign Exchange (“SAFE”), by complying with certain procedural requirements. However, the relevant PRC government authorities may limit or eliminate our ability to purchase foreign currencies in the future. Since a significant amount of our future revenues will be denominated in Renminbi, any existing and future restrictions on currency exchange may limit our ability to utilize revenues generated in Renminbi to fund our business activities outside China that are denominated in foreign currencies.

Foreign exchange transactions by IPA China under the capital account continue to be subject to significant foreign exchange controls and require the approval of or need to register with PRC government authorities, including SAFE. In particular, if IPA China borrows foreign currency through loans from us or other foreign lenders, these loans must be registered with SAFE, and if we finance IPA China by means of additional capital contributions, these capital contributions must be approved by certain government authorities, including the National Development and Reform Commission, or the NDRC, the Ministry of Commerce, or MOFCOM, or their respective local counterparts. These limitations could affect IPA China’s ability to obtain foreign exchange through debt or equity financing.

Recent PRC regulations relating to the establishment of offshore special purpose vehicles by PRC residents, if applied to us, may subject the PRC resident shareholders of us or our parent company to personal liability and limit our ability to acquire PRC companies or to inject capital into our PRC subsidiary, limit our PRC subsidiaries’ ability to distribute profits to us or otherwise materially adversely affect us.

In October 2005, the SAFE issued a public notice, the Notice on Relevant Issues in the Foreign Exchange Control over Financing and Return Investment Through Special Purpose Companies by Residents Inside China, or the SAFE notice, which requires PRC residents, including both legal persons and natural persons, to register with the competent local SAFE branch before establishing or controlling any company outside of China, referred to as an “offshore special purpose company,” for the purpose of overseas equity financing involving onshore assets or equity interests held by them. In addition, any PRC resident that is the shareholder of an offshore special purpose company is required to amend its SAFE registration with the local SAFE branch with respect to that offshore special purpose company in connection with any increase or decrease of capital, transfer of shares, merger, division, equity investment or creation of any security interest over any assets located in China. Moreover, if the offshore special purpose company was established and owned the onshore assets or equity interests before the implementation date of the SAFE notice, a retroactive SAFE registration is required to have been completed before March 31, 2006. If any PRC shareholder of any offshore special purpose company fails to make the required SAFE registration and amendment, the PRC subsidiaries of that offshore special purpose company may be prohibited from distributing their profits and the proceeds from any reduction in capital, share transfer or liquidation to the offshore special purpose company. Moreover, failure to comply with the SAFE registration and amendment requirements described above could result in liability under PRC laws for evasion of applicable foreign exchange restrictions.

Due to lack of official interpretation, some of the terms and provisions in the SAFE notice remain unclear and implementation by central SAFE and local SAFE branches of the SAFE notice has been inconsistent since its adoption. Because of uncertainty over how the SAFE notice will be interpreted and implemented, we cannot predict how it will affect our business operations or future strategies. For example, our present and prospective PRC subsidiaries’ ability to conduct foreign exchange activities, such as the remittance of dividends and foreign currency-denominated borrowings, may be subject to compliance with the SAFE notice by our or our parent company’s PRC resident beneficial holders. In addition, such PRC residents may not always be able to complete the necessary registration procedures required by the SAFE notice. We also have little control over either our present or prospective direct or indirect shareholders or the outcome of such registration procedures. A failure by our PRC resident beneficial holders or future PRC resident shareholders to comply with the SAFE notice, if SAFE requires it, could subject us to fines or legal sanctions, restrict our overseas or cross-border investment activities, limit our subsidiary’s ability to make distributions or pay dividends or affect our ownership structure, which could adversely affect our business and prospects.

The Chinese government could change its policies toward private enterprise or even nationalize or expropriate private enterprises, which could result in the total loss of our investment in that country.

Our business is subject to significant political and economic uncertainties and may be adversely affected by political, economic and social developments in China. Over the past several years, the Chinese government has pursued economic reform policies including the encouragement of private economic activity and greater economic decentralization. The Chinese government may not continue to pursue these policies or may significantly alter them to our detriment from time to time with little, if any, prior notice.

Changes in policies, laws and regulations or in their interpretation or the imposition of confiscatory taxation, restrictions on currency conversion, restrictions or prohibitions on dividend payments to stockholders, devaluations of currency or the nationalization or other expropriation of private enterprises could have a material adverse effect on our business. Nationalization or expropriation could even result in the total loss of our investment in China and in the total loss of your investment in us.

Shareholder rights under British Virgin Islands law may differ materially from shareholder rights in the United States, which could adversely affect the ability of us and our shareholders to protect our and their interests.

Our corporate affairs are governed by our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association, by the Business Companies Act (No 16 of 2004) and the common law of the BVI. The rights of shareholders to take action against the directors, actions by minority shareholders, and the fiduciary responsibilities of our directors to us under BVI law are to a large extent governed by the common law of the BVI. The common law in the BVI is derived in part from comparatively limited judicial precedent in the BVI as well as from English common law, the decisions of whose courts are of persuasive authority but are not binding on a court in the BVI. The rights of our shareholders and the fiduciary responsibilities of our directors under BVI law in this area may not be as clearly established as they would be under statutes or judicial precedent in existence in some jurisdictions in the United States. In particular, the BVI has a less developed body of securities laws as compared to the United States, and some states, such as Delaware, have more fully developed and judicially interpreted bodies of corporate laws. Moreover, our company could be involved in a corporate combination in which dissenting shareholders would have no rights comparable to appraisal rights which would otherwise ordinarily be available to dissenting shareholders of United States corporations. Also, we are not aware of a significant number of reported class actions or derivative actions having been brought in BVI courts. Such actions are ordinarily available in respect of United States corporations in US courts. Finally, BVI companies may not have standing to initiate shareholder derivative action before the federal courts of the United States. As a result, our public shareholders may face different considerations in protecting their interests in actions against the management, directors or our controlling shareholders than would shareholders of a corporation incorporated in a jurisdiction in the United States, and our ability to protect our interests may be limited if we are harmed in a manner that would otherwise enable us to sue in a United States federal court.

As we are a British Virgin Islands company and most of our assets are outside the United States, it will be extremely difficult to acquire jurisdiction and enforce liabilities against us and our officers, directors and assets based in China.

We are a BVI international business company, and our corporate affairs are governed by our Memorandum and Articles of Association and by the BVI Business Companies Act (No 16 of 2004) and other applicable BVI laws. Certain of our directors and officers primarily reside outside of the United States. In addition, the Company’s assets will be located outside the United States although we do sell our products into the United States. As a result, it may be difficult or impossible to effect service of process within the United States upon our directors or officers and our subsidiaries, or enforce against any of them court judgments obtained in United States’ courts, including judgments relating to United States federal securities laws. In addition, there is uncertainty as to whether the courts of the BVI and of other offshore jurisdictions would recognize or enforce judgments of United States’ courts obtained against us predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the securities laws of the United States or any state thereof, or be competent to hear original actions brought in the BVI or other offshore jurisdictions predicated upon the securities laws of the United States or any state thereof. Furthermore, because the majority of our assets are located in China, it would also be extremely difficult to access those assets to satisfy an award entered against us in United States court.

The laws of the British Virgin Islands provide little protection for minority shareholders, so minority shareholders will have little or no recourse if the shareholders are dissatisfied with the conduct of the affairs of our company.

Under the laws of the BVI, there is some statutory law for the protection of minority shareholders under the Act. The principal protection under statutory law is that shareholders may bring an action to enforce our Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association. The Act sets forth the procedure to bring such a claim. Shareholders are entitled to have the affairs of the company conducted in accordance with the general law and the Amended and Restated Memorandum and Amended and Restated Articles of Association. Companies are not obligated to appoint an independent auditor and shareholders are not entitled to receive the audited financial statements of the company.

There are common law rights for the protection of shareholders that may be invoked (such rights have also now been given statutory footing under the Act), largely dependent on English company law, since the common law of the BVI for business companies is limited. Under the general rule pursuant to English company law known as the rule in Foss v. Harbottle, a court will generally refuse to interfere with the management of a company at the insistence of a minority of its shareholders who express dissatisfaction with the conduct of the company’s affairs by the majority of the BOD. However, every shareholder is entitled to have the affairs of the company conducted properly according to law and the constituent documents of the corporation. As such, if those who control the company have persistently disregarded the requirements of company law or the provisions of the company’s memorandum or articles of association, then the courts will grant relief. Generally, the areas in which the courts will intervene are the following: (i) an act complained of which is outside the scope of the authorized business or is illegal or not capable of ratification by the majority, (ii) acts that constitute fraud on the minority where the wrongdoers control the company, (iii) acts that infringe on the personal rights of the shareholders, such as the right to vote, and (iv) where the company has not complied with provisions requiring approval of a special or extraordinary majority of shareholders, which are more limited than the rights afforded minority shareholders under the laws of many states in the US.

Risks Related To An Investment In Our Stock

There may not be an active, liquid trading market for our ordinary shares.

We have received approval for public trading of our Company stock on the OTC Bulletin Board. The first public trading in our Company stock began November 8, 2010. There is no guarantee that there will be an active liquid market for our shares in the future.

The market price for our ordinary shares may be volatile, which could result in substantial losses to investors.

The market price for our ordinary shares is likely to be volatile and subject to wide fluctuations in response to factors including the following:

	●	actual or anticipated fluctuations in our quarterly operating results;
	●	changes in the Chinese energy and livestock industries;
	●	changes in the Chinese economy;
	●	announcements by our competitors of significant acquisitions, strategic partnerships, joint ventures or capital commitments;
	●	additions or departures of key personnel; or
	●	potential litigation.

In addition, the securities markets have from time to time experienced significant price and volume fluctuations that are not related to the operating performance of particular companies. As a result, to the extent shareholders sell our ordinary shares in negative market fluctuation, they may not receive a price per share that is based solely upon our business performance. We cannot guarantee that shareholders will not lose some of their entire investment in our ordinary shares.

Future sales of our ordinary shares may depress our share price.

The market price of our ordinary shares could decline as a result of sales of substantial amounts of our ordinary shares in the public market, or the perception that these sales could occur. In addition, these factors could make it more difficult for us to raise funds through future offerings of ordinary shares. There were 8,600,000 ordinary shares outstanding after the effectiveness of our Form S-1 registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). As of the filing for this Form 10-K Annual Report, that number is still the ordinary shares outstanding. All of the ordinary shares sold in our initial public offering were freely transferable without restriction or further registration under the Securities Act, except for any shares purchased by our “affiliates,” as defined in Rule 144 of the Securities Act. The remaining ordinary shares will be “restricted securities” as defined in Rule 144. These shares may be sold in the future without registration under the Securities Act to the extent permitted by Rule 144 or other exemptions under the Securities Act. In addition, we recently registered 1,400,000 ordinary shares underlying our stock options under a Form S-8. If the options were exercised and resold under this registration statement, they could have a further depressing effect.

If our parent company VIASPACE cannot make the cash payment due to Chang on May 14, 2011, or some other alternate arrangement is not reached, then Chang could greatly increase his ownership in our equity securities and have greater influence on shareholder actions.

On May 14, 2010, our parent company VIASPACE entered into a secured Note with Sung Hsien Chang and must pay Chang $5,331,025 over a five-year period. Interest accrues at 6%. The principal must be repaid in five equal installments of $1,066,205 on the first through fifth anniversary of the issuance date. The first payment is due May 14, 2011. Chang may elect to receive payments in cash or VIASPACE equity securities. The Note is secured by certain assets of VIASPACE, including all securities of VGE held by VIASPACE. The Note is also secured by the assets of VGE, IPA BVI and IPA China. The Note may be accelerated upon an event of default under the note which includes failure to repay any amount owed, or breach of certain representations, warranties and covenants. The Note also includes various affirmative covenants, including legal compliance and insurance maintenance; and negative covenants, including VIASPACE maintaining a net worth of $5 million on a consolidated basis. If VIASPACE is ultimately unable to make this cash payment, or some other alternate arrangement is not reached, VIASPACE would be required to transfer all of the shares of VGE it holds to Chang. This would cause Mr. Chang to have greater influence on shareholder decisions.

Our major shareholders, directors and officers will control a majority of our ordinary shares, decreasing your influence on shareholder decisions.

Our major shareholder is VIASPACE Inc. which holds 6,506,000 ordinary shares at December 31, 2010, or approximately 75.7% of our outstanding shares. Officers and directors beneficially own 400,000 ordinary shares. If VIASPACE does not make its cash payment to Chang on May 14, 2011, or some other alternate arrangement is not reached, Chang has the ability to require VIASPACE to transfer all of the shares of VGE it holds to him. We would then be controlled by Chang rather than our current parent company, VIASPACE Inc. This concentration of ownership and voting power may also discourage, delay or prevent a change in control of our company, which could deprive our shareholders of an opportunity to receive a premium for their shares as part of a sale of our company and might reduce the price of our ordinary shares. These actions may be taken even if they are opposed by our other shareholders, including those who purchase shares in the Company. See “Principal Shareholders.”

ITEM 6. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Overview

The Company’s web site is www.VIASPACEGreenEnergy.com.

Critical accounting policies and estimates

Financial Reporting Release No. 60, “Cautionary Advice Regarding Disclosure About Critical Accounting Policies” (“FRR60”) issued by the SEC, suggests companies provide additional disclosure and commentary on those accounting policies considered most critical. FRR 60 considers an accounting policy to be critical if it is important to the Company’s financial condition and results of operations, and requires significant judgment and estimates on the part of management in its application. For a summary of the Company’s significant accounting policies, including the critical accounting policies discussed below, see the accompanying notes to the consolidated financial statements.

The preparation of the Company’s financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amount of expenses during the reporting period. On an ongoing basis, the Company evaluates its estimates, which are based on historical experience and on various other assumptions believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. The result of these evaluations forms the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities and the reported amount of expenses not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions. The accounting policies discussed below require significant management judgments and estimates.

IPA BVI and IPA China have generated revenues on product shipments. In accordance with SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 104, “Revenue Recognition”, codified in FASB ASC Topic 605, IPA recognizes product revenue provided (1) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, (2) delivery to the customer has occurred, (3) the selling price is fixed or determinable and (4) collection is reasonably assured. Delivery is considered to have occurred when title and risk of loss have transferred to the customer. The price is considered fixed or determinable when it is not subject to refund or adjustments. Our standard shipping terms are free on board shipping point. Some of the Company’s products are sold in the PRC and are subject to Chinese value-added tax. This VAT may be offset by VAT paid by the Company on raw materials and other materials included in the cost of producing their finished product. Revenue is recorded net of VAT taxes.

The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities not readily apparent from other sources. There is no assurance actual results will not differ from these estimates.

See footnotes in the accompanying financial statements regarding recent financial accounting developments.

Results of Operations

Year Ended December 31, 2010 versus Year Ended December 31, 2009

Revenues

Revenues were $3,247,000 and $3,618,000 for 2010 and 2009, respectively, a decrease of $371,000 or 10%. Sales of framed artwork were down by 10% during 2010 compared with 2009 as customer filled orders were lower. During the fourth quarter of 2010, the Company recorded $7,000 in grass revenues related to the sale of its Green Log fireplace logs made from GKG. All revenues recorded during 2009 are from the Company’s framed artwork segment.

Cost of Revenues

Costs of revenues were $2,271,000 and $2,020,000 for 2010 and 2009, respectively, an increase of $251,000 or 12%. Framed artwork costs of revenues were greater than expected due to higher manufacturing costs. The Company had $6,000 in grass cost of revenues related to the sale of its Green Log fireplace logs in 2010. All of the cost of revenues recorded during 2009 are from the Company’s framed artwork segment.

Gross Profit

The resulting effect on these changes in revenues and cost of revenues from 2009 to 2010 was a decrease in gross profits from $1,598,000 in 2009 to $976,000 in 2010, a decrease of $622,000 or 39%. The decrease in gross profit was due to the decrease in artwork revenues.

Operations Expenses

Operations expenses were $152,000 and zero for 2010 and 2009, respectively. The increase in expenses is primarily due to operations expenses incurred by VGE in the production of its GKG in China. In 2010, this includes costs for salaries, equipment, maintenance, utilities and fuel. The Company expects operations expenses for VGE to increase in the future as more expenditures are incurred to grow, harvest and produce GKG.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

Selling, general and administrative expenses were $1,522,000 and $1,718,000 for 2010 and 2009, respectively, a decrease of $196,000 or 11%.

Framed Artwork Segment

Of the total amounts, the framed artwork segment had selling, general and administrative expenses of $568,000 and $839,000 for 2010 and 2009, respectively, a decrease of $271,000, or 32%, primarily due to lower commissions on framed artwork sales.

Grass Segment

Of the total amounts, the grass segment had selling, general and administrative expenses of $954,000 and $879,000 for 2010 and 2009, respectively, an increase of $75,000. Stock option compensation expense increased $334,000 in 2010 as compared with 2009 as new stock options were granted in 2010. Payroll and benefits expenses decreased $150,000 in 2010 due to reduced employees and consultants. Travel increased $23,000 in 2010 due to marketing efforts to sell and promote GKG. Legal fees decreased $59,000 in 2010 due to lower levels of legal services required. Professional accounting fees decreased $44,000 in 2010 due to the timing of audit bills submitted. Other expenses decreased $29,000 in 2010 as compared with 2009.

Loss from Operations

The resulting effect on these changes in gross profit, operations, and selling, general and administrative expenses was an increase in loss from operations of $578,000 from 2009 to 2010.

Framed Artwork Segment

Of the total amounts, the framed artwork segment had decreased income from operations of $351,000 from 2009 to 2010 due to lower artwork revenues in 2010 and higher manufacturing costs.

Grass Segment

Of the total amounts, the grass segment had an increased loss from operations of $227,000 in 2010 as compared with 2009 due to higher grass expenses in 2010 as noted above.

Other Income (Expense), Net

Other Income

Other income increased $166,000 from 2009 to 2010 primarily due to interest income being charged on the amounts owed to the Company by Sung Hsien Chang and JJ International.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Period from January 1, 2010 through December 31, 2010

The Company’s net loss for 2010 was $529,000. Non-cash expenses totaled $452,000 for the year ended December 31, 2010 and was composed of $332,000 of stock option compensation expense and $120,000 of depreciation and amortization expense. Related party receivables and payables, net, used $350,000 of cash for 2010. General working capital used $310,000 in 2010. Net cash used in operating activities was $737,000 for 2010.

Net cash used in investing activities was $152,000 for 2010. This is primarily for capital expenditures of $156,000 incurred by VGE in building a new storage facility and purchasing equipment for its GKG business. The Company also received proceeds of $17,000 from the disposal of a vehicle. In addition, VGE incurred $13,000 in costs associated with entering into a new land lease in the PRC to grow GKG.

The Company expects cash on hand as of December 31, 2010 and future operating cash flow to fund operations for a minimum of the next twelve months, and as such, the Company has no immediate need for additional outside financing. However, if revenue forecasts are not met or if future operating expenses or capital requirements increase beyond our control; the Company may need to seek additional cash resources through the sale of equity securities or debt securities.

Contractual Obligations

The Company does not have any other major outstanding contractual obligations except for the following employment agreements:

Employment Agreements

On May 14, 2010, VGE entered into two-year employment agreements with each of Carl Kukkonen, Sung Hsien Chang and Stephen Muzi. Dr. Kukkonen would serve as Chief Executive Officer of VGE, Mr. Chang as President of VGE, and Mr. Muzi as Chief Financial Officer, Treasurer and Secretary of VGE. Dr. Kukkonen and Mr. Chang would receive a salary of $240,000 per annum and Mr. Muzi would receive $180,000 per annum. For the first 12 months, Messrs. Kukkonen and Muzi would be paid by VIASPACE. The remainder of the employment term they would be paid by VGE. Each of them would be entitled to a bonus as determined by the VGE BOD, customary insurance and health benefits, 20 business days paid leave per year, and reimbursement for out-of-pocket expenses in the course of his employment.

Inflation and Seasonality

We have not experienced material inflation during the past two years. Seasonality has historically not had a material effect on our operations.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

The Company does not have any off-balance sheet arrangements as of December 31, 2010.

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

Interest Rate Risk. Our exposure to interest rate risk primarily relates to interest income generated by cash invested in liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less. Such interest-earning instruments carry a degree of interest rate risk. We have not used any derivative financial instruments to manage our interest rate exposure. We have not been exposed to material risks due to changes in interest rates. However, our future interest income may be lower than expected due to changes in market interest rates.

Foreign Exchange Risk. Although we use US dollars as our reporting currency and our artwork revenue is denominated in US dollars, our operations are carried out in RMB and we maintain RMB denominated bank accounts. We, therefore, are subject to currency risk. Although the conversion of the RMB is highly regulated in China, the value of the RMB against the value of the US dollar or any other currency nonetheless may fluctuate in value within a narrow band against a basket of certain foreign currencies. China is currently under significant international pressures to liberalize this government currency policy, and if such liberalization were to occur, the value of the RMB could appreciate or depreciate against the US dollar. Unfavorable changes in the exchange rate between the RMB and the US dollar may result in a material effect upon accumulated other comprehensive income recorded as a charge in shareholders’ equity. We do not use derivative instruments to reduce our exposure to foreign currency risk.

In addition, the RMB is not a freely convertible currency. IPA China, our Chinese subsidiary, is not permitted to pay outstanding current account obligations in foreign currency, but rather must present the proper documentation to a designated foreign exchange bank. We cannot guarantee that all future local currency can be repatriated.

Inflation. Although China has experienced an increasing inflation rate, inflation has not had a material impact on our results of operations during 2010 and 2009.

ITEM 7. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

ITEM 8. CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE

None.

ITEM 8A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Disclosure controls and procedures. Disclosure controls are controls and procedures designed to reasonably assure information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Exchange Act, such as this Annual Report, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls are also designed to reasonably assure such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Disclosure controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and implemented, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving an entity’s disclosure objectives. The likelihood of achieving such objectives is affected by limitations inherent in disclosure controls and procedures. These include the fact that human judgment in decision-making can be faulty and that breakdowns in internal control can occur because of human failures such as simple errors, mistakes or intentional circumvention of the established processes.

At the end of the period covered by this report and at the end of each fiscal quarter therein, the Company’s management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934). Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded these disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level described above as of the end of the period covered in this report.

Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting. Our management is also responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Internal control over financial reporting is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) promulgated under the Exchange Act as a process designed by, or under the supervision of, our principal executive and principal financial officers and effected by our BOD, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and 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 assets of the Company;
	●	Provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the Company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the Company; and
	●	Provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the Company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, our internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect all misstatements. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation. Projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Our management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2010. In making this assessment, management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control—Integrated Framework. Based on such assessment, we believe our internal controls over financial reporting were effective as of December 31, 2010.

This annual report on Form 10-K does not include an attestation report of the Company’s registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by the Company’s registered public accounting firm pursuant to the temporary rules of the SEC that permit the Company to provide only management’s report in this annual report on Form 10-K.

Changes in internal controls over financial reporting. Management, with the participation of the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer of the Company, has evaluated any changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting occurred during the most recent fiscal quarter. Based on that evaluation, management, the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer of the Company have concluded no change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) occurred during 2010 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

The Company is a non-accelerated filer with the SEC.

Board of Directors and Board Committees

Our BOD currently consists of three (3) members. We expect all current directors will continue to serve in their capacity. There are no family relationships between any of our executive officers and directors.

A director may vote in respect of any contract or transaction in which he is interested, provided, however the nature of the interest of any director in any such contract or transaction shall be disclosed by him at or prior to its consideration and any vote on that matter. A general notice or disclosure to the directors or otherwise contained in the minutes of a meeting or a written resolution of the directors or any committee thereof that a director is a shareholder of any specified firm or company and is to be regarded as interested in any transaction with such firm or company shall be sufficient disclosure and after such general notice it shall not be necessary to give special notice relating to any particular transaction.

Duties of Directors

Under BVI law, our directors have a fiduciary duty to the company to act in good faith in their dealings with or on behalf of our company and exercise their powers and fulfill the duties of their office honestly. This duty has four essential elements:

	●	a duty to act in good faith in the best interests of the company;
	●	a duty not to personally profit from opportunities that arise from the office of director;
	●	a duty to avoid conflicts of interest; and
	●	a duty to exercise powers for the purpose for which such powers were intended.

In general, the Companies Law imposes various duties on officers of a company with respect to certain matters of management and administration of the company. The Companies Law imposes fines on persons who fail to satisfy those requirements or the company itself. However, in many circumstances, an individual is only liable if he is knowingly guilty of the default or knowingly and willfully authorizes or permits the default.

Director Compensation

All directors hold office until the expiration of their respective terms and until their successors have been duly elected and qualified. There are no family relationships among our directors or executive officers. Officers are elected by and serve at the discretion of the BOD. Employee directors do not receive any compensation for their services. Non-employee directors may receive cash, stock or stock options for their service on the BOD. In addition, non-employee directors are entitled to receive compensation for their actual travel expenses for each BOD meeting attended. None of our directors received any director compensation for serving on the BOD in 2010. Directors who are our officers received salary and stock options which is included in the Summary Compensation Table in Item 10 of this Form 10-K

Limitation of Director and Officer Liability

No such director or officer will be liable for: (a) the acts, receipts, neglects, defaults or omissions of any other such Director or officer or agent; or (b) any loss on account of defect of title to any of our property; or (c) account of the insufficiency of any security in or upon which any of our money shall be invested; or (d) any loss incurred through any bank, broker or other similar person; or (e) any loss occasioned by any negligence, default, breach of duty, breach of trust, error of judgment or oversight on his or her part; or (f) any loss, damage or misfortune whatsoever which may happen in or arise from the execution or discharge of the duties, powers authorities, or discretions of his or her office or in relation thereto, unless the same shall happen through his or her own dishonesty.

Policy on Audit Committee Pre-Approval of Audit and Permissible Non-audit Services of Independent Auditors

The Company expects to establish an Audit Committee in 2011. Consistent with SEC policies regarding auditor independence, our Audit Committee will have the responsibility for appointing, setting compensation and overseeing the work of the independent auditor. In recognition of this responsibility, the Audit Committee will establish a policy to pre-approve all audit and permissible non-audit services provided by the independent auditor.

Prior to engagement of the independent auditor for the next year's audit, management will submit an aggregate of services expected to be rendered during that year for each of four categories of services to the Audit Committee for approval.

Audit services include audit work performed in the preparation of financial statements, as well as work generally only the independent auditor can reasonably be expected to provide, including comfort letters, statutory audits, and attest services and consultation regarding financial accounting and/or reporting standards.

Audit-Related services are for assurance and related services traditionally performed by the independent auditor, including due diligence related to mergers and acquisitions, employee benefit plan audits, and special procedures required to meet certain regulatory requirements.

Tax services include all services performed by the independent auditor's tax personnel except those services specifically related to the audit of the financial statements, and includes fees in the areas of tax compliance, tax planning, and tax advice.

Other Fees are those associated with services not captured in the other categories.

Prior to the engagement, the Audit Committee will pre-approve these services by category of service. The fees are budgeted and the Audit Committee requires the independent auditor and management to report actual fees versus the budget periodically throughout the year by category of service. During the year, circumstances may arise when it may become necessary to engage the independent auditor for additional services not contemplated in the original pre-approval. In those instances, the Audit Committee requires specific pre-approval before engaging the independent auditor.

The Audit Committee may delegate pre-approval authority to one or more of its members. The member to whom such authority is delegated must report, for informational purposes only, any pre-approval decisions to the Audit Committee at its next scheduled meeting.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

Board of Directors and Stockholders of

VIASPACE Green Energy Inc.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of VIASPACE Green Energy Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, and the related consolidated statements of operations and other comprehensive loss, stockholders' equity, and cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated 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 consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall consolidated 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 consolidated financial position of VIASPACE Green Energy Inc. and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 2010 and 2009 and the consolidated results of their operations and their consolidated cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, in conformity with US generally accepted accounting principles.

VIASPACE GREEN ENERGY INC.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

DECEMBER 31, 2010 AND 2009

Note 1 — SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Description of Business – VIASPACE Green Energy Inc., a British Virgin Islands (“BVI”) international business company (“we”, “us”, “VGE” or the “Company”) is the parent company of Inter Pacific Arts Corporation, a BVI international business company (“IPA BVI”) and Guangzhou Inter Pacific Arts, a Peoples Republic of China (“PRC”) company (“IPA China”). IPA China is a wholly-owned foreign enterprise headquartered in Guangdong province of China. IPA BVI owns all equity interests of IPA China. IPA BVI and IPA China specialize in the manufacturing of high quality, copyrighted, framed artwork sold in US retail chain stores. IPA China also has a sublicense to a fast-growing, high yield, low carbon, nonfood energy crop called Giant KingTM Grass (“GKG”) which can be burned in 100% biomass power plants to generate electricity; made into pellets that can be burned together with coal to reduce carbon emissions from existing power plants; generate bio methane through anaerobic digestion, and can be used as a feedstock for low carbon liquid biofuels for transportation, biochemicals and bio plastics. Cellulosic ethanol, bio butanol and other liquid biofuels, collectively called Grassoline, do not use corn or other food sources as feedstock. GKG can also be used as animal feed. GKG and other plants absorb and store carbon dioxide from the atmosphere as they grow. When they are burned, they release the carbon dioxide back into the atmosphere, but it is the same carbon dioxide that was removed from the atmosphere, and that the process is carbon neutral. Small amounts of fossil fuel are used by the farm equipment, transportation of GKG and fertilizer, so the overall process has some carbon dioxide emissions, but much lower than burning coal or other fossil fuels directly. GKG has been independently tested by customers and been shown to have excellent energy content, very high bio methane production, and high potential for biofuels and biochemicals.

Company History – VGE was formed on July 1, 2008. Prior to October 21, 2008, VGE was 100% owned by VIASPACE Inc. (“VIASPACE” or “Parent Company”) and had no active operations. On October 21, 2008, the majority shareholder of IPA BVI and IPA China, Sung Hsien Chang (“Chang”), entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the "Purchase Agreement") with VGE, VIASPACE and China Gate Technology Co., Ltd., a Brunei Darussalam company ("Licensor"). Under the Purchase Agreement, VGE acquired 100% of IPA BVI and the entire equity interest of IPA China from Chang. In exchange, VIASPACE agreed to pay approximately $16 million in cash and newly-issued shares of VIASPACE and VGE stock. In addition, VIASPACE issued shares of its common stock to Licensor for Licensor’s sublicense of certain grass technology to IPA China. As of December 31, 2010 and 2009, VIASPACE owns 75.7% and 59.3%, respectively, of the outstanding common shares of VGE.

Basis of Presentation - The accompanying audited consolidated financial statements of the Company were prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“US GAAP”) for financial information and with Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) instructions to Form 10-K. In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated on consolidation. Certain reclassifications were made to the December 31, 2009 consolidated financial statements to conform to the December 31, 2010 consolidated financial statement presentation.

Principles of Consolidation – VGE has a controlling interest in IPA BVI and IPA China and accounts for these subsidiaries under the consolidation method. Under this method, an affiliated company’s results of operations are reflected within the Company’s consolidated statement of operations. Transactions between consolidated affiliated companies are eliminated in consolidation. The Company adopted “Business Combinations”, codified in FASB ASC Topic 805, which requires use of the purchase method for all business combinations initiated after June 30, 2001.

Fiscal Year End - The Company’s fiscal year ends December 31.

Use of Estimates in the Preparation of the Financial Statements - The preparation of financial statements, in conformity with US GAAP, 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 revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Cash and Equivalents - The Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments, purchased with an original maturity of three months or less, to be cash equivalents.

F-7

Concentration of Credit Risk - The Company’s financial instruments exposed to concentration of credit risk consist primarily of cash equivalents, accounts receivable and related party receivable. The Company maintains all of its cash accounts with high credit quality institutions. Such balances with any one institution may exceed FDIC insured limits.

Accounts Receivable Allowance for Doubtful Accounts - The allowance for doubtful accounts relates to specifically identified receivables that are evaluated individually for collectability. We determine a receivable is uncollectible when, based on current information and events, it is probable we will be unable to collect amounts due according to the original contractual terms of the receivable agreement, without regard to any subsequent restructurings. Factors considered in assessing collectability include, but are not limited to, a customer’s extended delinquency, requests for restructuring and filings for bankruptcy. For 2010 and 2009, sales to one customer comprised 82% and 79%, respectively, of our total revenues.

Marketable Securities - The Company accounts for marketable securities in accordance with the provisions of “Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities”, codified in FASB ASC Topic 320. This Topic provides accounting and disclosure guidance for investments in equity securities that have readily determinable fair values and all debt securities. It applies to marketable equity securities and all debt securities, carried at fair value with unrealized gains and losses, net of related deferred tax effect, and requires they be reported as an item of other comprehensive income. At December 31, 2010 and 2009, the Company did not have any marketable securities.

Inventory - Inventory is stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined using the average cost method. Market is determined using net realizable value. The Company writes down its inventory for estimated obsolescence, excess quantities and other factors in evaluating net realizable value.

The following is a summary of inventory at December 31, 2010:

	Raw Materials		Finished Goods		Total
Framed-Artwork	$	460,000	$	―	$	460,000
Grass		78,000		13,000		91,000
Total	$	538,000	$	13,000	$	551,000

The following is a summary of inventory at December 31, 2009:

	Raw Materials
Framed-Artwork	$	399,000
Grass		56,000
Total	$	455,000

Property and Equipment - Property and equipment are stated at cost, net of accumulated depreciation. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred; additions, renewals and betterments are capitalized. When property and equipment are retired or otherwise disposed of, the related cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the respective accounts, and any gain or loss is included in operations. Depreciation of property and equipment is provided using the straight-line method for substantially all assets and estimated lives as follows:

Building	20 to 30 years
Machinery and equipment	10 years
Office equipment	5 years
Vehicles	5 years
Computers	3 years

F-8

Land Use Right – All land in the PRC is government owned and cannot be sold to any individual or company. IPA China acquired land use rights for the land occupied by its manufacturing facility in 2005. VGE acquired land use rights in 2010 on approximately 13 hectares, or 33 acres in Guangdong province of the PRC to grow GKG. As of December 31, 2010, VGE has land use rights of approximately 113 hectares, or 280 acres in Guangdong province of the PRC.

License – IPA China has a worldwide license for a fast-growing, high yield, low carbon, nonfood energy crop called GKG which can be burned in 100% biomass power plants to generate electricity; made into pellets that can be burned together with coal to reduce carbon emissions from existing power plants; generate bio methane through anaerobic digestion, and can be used as a feedstock for low carbon liquid biofuels for transportation. IPA China sublicensed this right from China Gate Technology Co., Ltd. which obtained the original license from the inventor. IPA China did not directly pay for the license. VIASPACE issued shares of its common stock to Licensor upon the acquisition of IPA China by VIASPACE and VGE on October 21, 2008 to pay for the license.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments - “Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments,” codified in FASB ASC Topic 85, requires the Company disclose estimated fair values of financial instruments at least annually. The recorded value of accounts receivables, related party receivables, related party payables, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximate their fair values based on their short-term nature. The recorded values of long-term debt and liabilities approximate fair value.

Income Taxes – The Company utilizes “Accounting for Income Taxes,” codified in FASB ASC Topic 740, which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events included in the financial statements or tax returns. Under this method, deferred income taxes are recognized for the tax consequences in future years of differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their financial reporting amounts at each period end based on enacted tax laws and statutory tax rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.

The statutory corporate income tax rate for foreign enterprises in the PRC was 25% for 2009 and 2010. IPA China is subject to local income tax rate of 3% for 2009 and 2010. VGE and IPA BVI are British Virgin Islands international companies and not subject to United States income taxes.

The Company does not have any deferred tax assets or liabilities recorded for the periods covered by the accompanying financial statements due to no significant book to tax basis differences existing.

Revenue Recognition – IPA BVI and IPA China have generated revenues on product shipments. In accordance with SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 104, “Revenue Recognition”, codified in FASB ASC Topic 605, IPA recognizes product revenue provided that (1) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, (2) delivery to the customer has occurred, (3) the selling price is fixed or determinable and (4) collection is reasonably assured. Delivery is considered to have occurred when title and risk of loss have transferred to the customer. The price is considered fixed or determinable when it is not subject to refund or adjustments. Our standard shipping terms are free on board shipping point. Some of the Company’s products are sold in the PRC and are subject to Chinese value-added tax. This VAT may be offset by VAT paid by the Company on raw materials and other materials included in the cost of producing their finished product. Revenue is recorded net of VAT taxes.

Cost of Revenues – Cost of revenues consists primarily of material costs, employee compensation, depreciation and related expenses, which are directly attributable to the production of products. Any write-down of inventory to lower of cost or market is also recorded in cost of revenues.

Foreign Currency Translation and Comprehensive Income (Loss) – IPA China’s functional currency is the Renminbi (“RMB”). For financial reporting purposes, RMB has been translated into United States dollars ("USD") as the reporting currency. Assets and liabilities are translated at the exchange rate in effect at the balance sheet date. Revenues and expenses are translated at the average rate of exchange prevailing during the reporting period. Translation adjustments arising from the use of different exchange rates from period to period are included as a component of stockholders' equity as "Accumulated other comprehensive income". Gains and losses resulting from foreign currency transactions are included in income. There has been no significant fluctuation in exchange rate for the conversion of RMB to USD after the balance sheet date. The sales of IPA BVI are in USD.

F-9

Segment Reporting and Geographic Information – "Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information", codified in FASB ASC Topic 280, requires use of the “management approach” model for segment reporting. The management approach model is based on the way a company's management organizes segments within the company for making operating decisions and assessing performance. Reportable segments are based on products and services, geography, legal structure, management structure, or any other manner in which management disaggregates a company. At December 31, 2010, the Company's operations are conducted in two industry segments, Consumer Products segment specializes in manufacturing and selling high-quality, copyrighted, framed artwork to retail stores and Grass segment, through its growing, harvesting and selling of its GKG. All of the Company’s revenues for 2010 are to customers in the United States. The Consumer Products segment had revenues of $3,240,000 in 2010 and the Grass segment had revenues of $7,000. In 2009, all revenues were in the Consumer Products segment. All identifiable assets at December 31, 2010 are in the Asia/Pacific region and are related to the Consumer Products segment, with the exception of inventory, which is broken down by segment in Note 1 Inventory.

Net Income (Loss) Per Share - The Company computes net loss per share in accordance with “Earnings per Share”, codified in FASB ASC Topic 260. Under the provisions of this topic, basic and diluted net loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss available to common stockholders for the period by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period.

NOTE 2 — FIXED ASSETS

Fixed assets are comprised of the following at December 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009:

	2010		2009
Building	$	772,000	$	705,000
Machinery and equipment		417,000		356,000
Office equipment		77,000		73,000

NOTE 6 — INCOME TAXES

IPA China is governed by the Income Tax Law of the PRC concerning the private-run enterprises, which are generally subject to tax at a statutory rate of 25% in 2009 on income reported in the statutory financial statements after appropriated tax adjustments. VGE and IPA BVI are British Virgin Islands international companies and not subject to United States income taxes.

NOTE 7 – STOCK INCENTIVE PLAN

On June 2, 2009, the BOD of VGE adopted the 2009 Stock Incentive Plan (the “VGE Plan”). The VGE Plan was also approved by the holders of a majority of the Company’s common stock. The VGE Plan provided for the reservation for issuance under the Plan of 1,400,000 shares of VGE common stock (16.28% of outstanding shares at December 31, 2010). The number of shares in the stock option plan will adjust annually and remain at 16.28% of outstanding shares.

The VGE Plan is designed to provide additional incentive to employees, directors and consultants of the Company through the awarding of incentive stock options, non-statutory stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock and other awards. The VGE BOD administers the VGE Plan, selects the individuals to whom options will be granted, determines the number of options to be granted, and the term and exercise price of each option. Stock options granted pursuant to the terms of the VGE Plan generally cannot be granted with an exercise price of less than 100% of the fair market value on the date of the grant. The term of the options granted under the Plan cannot be greater than 10 years. Options to employees and directors generally vest over a period determined by the VGE BOD. 50,000 shares were available for future grant at December 31, 2010. On March 25, 2010, VGE granted stock options to the following: Carl Kukkonen, VGE CEO 550,000 stock options; Sung Hsien Chang, VGE President 550,000 stock options; and Stephen Muzi, VGE CFO 250,000 stock options. There were no stock options cancelled during 2010.

The fair value of each stock option granted is estimated on the date of the grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The Black-Scholes option pricing model has assumptions for risk free interest rates, dividends, stock volatility and expected life of an option grant. The risk free interest rate is based upon market yields for United States Treasury debt securities at a maturity near the term remaining on the option. Dividend rates are based on dividend history. The stock volatility factor is based on the historical volatility of VGE’s stock price. The expected life of an option grant is based on management’s estimate as no options have been exercised in the Plan to date. The fair value of each option grant to employees, directors and consultants is calculated by the Black-Scholes method and is recognized as compensation expense on a straight-line basis over the vesting period of each stock option award.

For stock options issued in 2010, the fair value was estimated at the date of grant using the following range of assumptions:

Risk free interest rate		3.37%
Dividends		0%
Volatility factor (estimated)		100.00%
Expected life		6.67 years
Annual forfeiture rate (estimated)		0%

The following table summarizes activity for employees and directors in VGE’s Plan for 2010:

	Number of Shares		Weighted- Average Exercise Price Per Share		Weighted- Average Remaining Contractual Term In Years		Aggregate Intrinsic Value
Outstanding at December 31, 2009		—	$	—
Granted		1,350,000		0.80
Exercised		—		—
Forfeited		—		—
Outstanding at December 31, 2010		1,350,000	$	0.80		9.3	$	1,190,000
Exercisable at December 31, 2010		506,000	$	0.80		9.3	$	3,173,000

The weighted-average grant date fair value of stock options granted to employees and directors during 2010 was $0.80 per share. The Company recorded $334,000 of compensation expense under the VGE Plan for employee and director stock options for 2010. At December 31, 2010, there was $557,000 of unrecognized compensation costs related to non-vested share-based compensation arrangements under the VGE Plan that is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of approximately one year and three months. At December 31, 2010, the fair value of options vested for employees and directors was $405,000. There were no options exercised during 2010.

NOTE 8 — NET LOSS PER SHARE

The Company computes net loss per share in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 260. Under its provisions, basic loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the periods presented. Diluted earnings would customarily include, if dilutive, potential shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise of stock options and warrants. The dilutive effect of outstanding stock options and warrants is reflected in earnings per share in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 260 by application of the treasury stock method. For the periods presented, the computation of diluted loss per share equaled basic loss per share as the inclusion of any dilutive instruments would have had an antidilutive effect on the earnings per share calculation in the periods presented.

The following table sets forth common stock equivalents (potential common stock) at December 31, 2010 and 2009 that are not included in the loss per share calculation since their effect would be anti-dilutive for the periods indicated:

	2010		2009

Stock Options		1,350,000		—

The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted net loss per share for 2010 and 2009, respectively:

NOTE 9 — OTHER COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Leases

The Company currently has no long term office lease. Lease on land in the PRC is discussed in Note 1 and Note 3. Rent expense charged to operations for 2010 and 2009 was $29,000 and $40,000, respectively.

Operations in the PRC

IPA China’s operations in the PRC are subject to specific considerations and significant risks not typically associated with companies in the North America and Western Europe. These include risks associated with, among others, the political, economic and legal environments and foreign currency exchange. The Company’s results may be adversely affected by changes in governmental policies with respect to laws and regulations, anti-inflationary measures, currency conversion and remittance abroad, and rates and methods of taxation, among other things.

The Company’s sales, purchases and expenses transactions are denominated in RMB and all of the Company’s assets and liabilities are also denominated in RMB. The RMB is not freely convertible into foreign currencies under the current law. In China, foreign exchange transactions are required by law to be transacted only by authorized financial institutions. Remittances in currencies other than RMB may require certain supporting documentation in order to affect the remittance.

Litigation

The Company is not party to any material legal proceedings at the present time.

NOTE 11 — FINANCIAL ACCOUNTING DEVELOPMENTS

On February 25, 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standard Update (“ASU”) 2010-09 Subsequent Events Topic 855 “Amendments to Certain Recognition and Disclosure Requirements,” effective immediately. The amendments in the ASU remove the requirement for an SEC filer to disclose a date through which subsequent events have been evaluated in both issued and revised financial statements. Revised financial statements include financial statements revised as a result of either correction of an error or retrospective application of US GAAP. The FASB believes these amendments remove potential conflicts with the SEC’s literature. The adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

On March 5, 2010, the FASB issued ASU No. 2010-11 Derivatives and Hedging Topic 815 “Scope Exception Related to Embedded Credit Derivatives.” This ASU clarifies the guidance within the derivative literature that exempts certain credit related features from analysis as potential embedded derivatives requiring separate accounting. The ASU specifies that an embedded credit derivative feature related to the transfer of credit risk that is only in the form of subordination of one financial instrument to another is not subject to bifurcation from a host contract under ASC 815-15-25, Derivatives and Hedging — Embedded Derivatives — Recognition. All other embedded credit derivative features should be analyzed to determine whether their economic characteristics and risks are “clearly and closely related” to the economic characteristics and risks of the host contract and whether bifurcation is required. The ASU is effective for the Company on July 1, 2010. Early adoption is permitted. The adoption of this ASU will not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In April 2010, the FASB codified the consensus reached in Emerging Issues Task Force Issue No. 08-09, “Milestone Method of Revenue Recognition.” FASB ASU No. 2010-17 provides guidance on defining a milestone and determining when it may be appropriate to apply the milestone method of revenue recognition for research and development transactions. FASB ASU No. 2010-17 is effective for fiscal years beginning on or after June 15, 2010, and is effective on a prospective basis for milestones achieved after the adoption date. The Company does not expect this ASU will have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations when it adopts this update on January 1, 2011.

In July 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-20, Disclosures about the Credit Quality of Financing Receivables and the Allowance for Credit Losses. This update amends codification Topic 310 on receivables to improve the disclosures that an entity provides about the credit quality of its financing receivables and the related allowance for credit losses. As a result of these amendments, an entity is required to disaggregate by portfolio segment or class certain existing disclosures and provide certain new disclosures about its financing receivables and related allowance for credit losses. This guidance is being phased in, with the new disclosure requirements for period end balances effective as of December 31, 2010, and the new disclosure requirements for activity during the reporting period are effective March 31, 2011. The troubled debt restructuring disclosures in this ASU have been delayed by ASU 2011-01 Deferral of the Effective Date of Disclosures about Troubled Debt Restructurings in Update No. 2010-20, which was issued in January 2011.
