PROSPECTUS SUMMARY

You should read the following summary together with the more detailed information contained elsewhere in this prospectus, including the section titled “Risk Factors,” regarding us and the common stock being sold in this offering. Unless the context otherwise requires, when we refer to “our company,” “we,” “us” or “our,” we are referring to Vu1 Corporation, the issuer of this prospectus.

Overview

We design, develop and manufacture mercury-free light bulbs using our proprietary Electron Stimulated Luminescence™, or ESL, lighting technology. Our ESL light bulbs use cathode-ray tube technology in which accelerated electrons stimulate phosphor to create light, making the surface of our bulbs glow in a highly energy-efficient manner and with a warm white natural light. In December 2010, we released our first commercial product, the R30 reflector light bulb (a direct replacement for the 65-watt incandescent flood bulb), which we believe will capture a growing share of the general illumination market in 2011 and over the next several years. We believe that this is because our current and planned ESL light bulbs offer potential advantages over competing lighting technologies on account of increased energy efficiency, longer product lifetime, environmentally safer and toxic-free, superior light quality and lower purchase price as a percentage of the bulb’s extended lifetime. We also believe that our ESL light bulbs have the potential to replace traditional incandescent light bulbs, compact fluorescent light bulbs (CFLs) and solid-state light emitting diodes (LEDs) in the future because of these competitive advantages. Our technology, intellectual property position and manufacturing capability should enable us to share in the revenues from the worldwide general lighting products market as our current and planned ESL light bulbs enter mainstream consumer and other markets.

Our primary growth strategy is to accelerate the introduction of our light bulbs into the commercial and residential general illumination market with the goal of obtaining widespread marketplace adoption within the next two years. In support of this objective, we are pursuing a multi-channel sales, marketing and distribution strategy, which includes efforts to establish business relationships with “big box” retailers, electrical and lighting distributors and municipal utilities, some of whom are currently evaluating our light bulbs for resale to their customers. We have also recently made our light bulbs directly available to the general public through an online order facility at our company’s corporate website.

In addition to our R30 reflector light bulb, which received UL certification last October, we are currently developing our version of the standard Edisonian A19 screw-in light bulb (and its European equivalent, the A60 bulb) for anticipated release in the second half of 2011. We are also developing an R40 flood light bulb for the United States commercial market and a smaller R25 light bulb for the European market to be used in recessed lighting fixtures. According to Strategies Unlimited, an independent research firm, the worldwide lighting market currently accounts for approximately $90 billion in annual sales.

We believe a significant contributing factor to our prospects are government regulations mandating the use of energy-efficient lighting, including the elimination of the production of all incandescent light bulbs in Europe by 2012 and in the United States by 2014, and regulations restricting the use of hazardous substances such as the mercury contained in CFLs. We believe these developments disrupt the well-entrenched lighting industry of past decades and, given the energy conservation and eco-friendly characteristics of our ESL light bulbs, create significant opportunities for us to introduce our products into the market in place of incandescent bulbs, as well as CFLs and LEDs.

We conduct our ESL light bulb development and manufacturing activities at our facility in the Czech Republic, which is operated by our Sendio s.r.o. subsidiary. At this 75,000 square-foot facility, we currently have one active production line with the capacity to produce up to 6.8 million light bulbs per year, with planned future expansion capacity on the same site to add further production lines with an estimated additional 10 million bulb annual capacity per line. We are also seeking partners to manufacture our product. Through our internal development efforts in the Czech Republic, we own 11 issued and pending U.S. patents (together with numerous counterparts filed in various foreign countries), and have accumulated over the past four years a substantial amount of technical know-how relating to our ESL technology.

As of April 11, 2011, we employed a team of 38 research scientists, engineers and laboratory technicians concentrating on technology development and innovation.

Our executive officers and directors have significant experience in developing and executing a “go-to-market” business model in a competitive, high growth industry. In addition, our management team has assembled highly-skilled technical personnel in Europe and the United States to conduct ongoing research and development of new light bulbs and next-generation technologies.

RISK FACTORS

An investment in our common stock involves a high degree of risk. You should carefully consider the following material risks, together with the other information contained in this prospectus, before you decide to buy our common stock. If any of the following risks actually occur, our business, results of operations and financial condition would likely suffer. In these circumstances, the market price of our common stock could decline, and you may lose all or part of your investment.

Risks Related to Our Business

We have historically been a research and development company. We have a limited operating history with minimal revenue to date, so it may be difficult to evaluate our business and prospects. We also received a going concern qualification in our 2010 audit.

We have been primarily engaged during the last six years in the research and development of our lighting products, and have incurred significant operating losses. We have only recently commenced commercial manufacturing. We have not generated any revenues and we depend on third-party financing to fund our operations. We have a very limited operating history upon which an investor can evaluate our business and prospects, and we may never be successful or achieve profitability. Peterson Sullivan, LLP, our independent registered public accounting firm, in its opinion on our financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2010, raised substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern due to our net losses and negative cash flows from operations and other factors.

We need significant additional financing in 2011. If this offering is not successful or we cannot obtain needed financings later this year, we may have to curtail our operations.

Our cash of $750,000 as of April 8, 2011 is not sufficient to support our operations through 2011, and we expect to need additional financing by the third quarter of this year. During 2010, we continued to incur operating losses as we continued development expenditures on our light bulb technology, pursued product production and sought to establish marketing and sales and distribution capabilities. Our ability to implement our business plan in 2011 and our future operations will be significantly impaired or delayed if we are unable to secure financing in the amounts and at the times needed to fund our working capital. We may seek to obtain funds through equity or debt financings, as well as through strategic financial partners. Such financing may not be available to us, or may only be available on financially unattractive terms or in insufficient amounts. If we are unable to obtain sufficient cash to continue to fund operations or if we are unable to locate a strategic partner, we may be forced to curtail or cease operations. Our independent registered public accounting firm added an explanatory paragraph to its opinion on our 2010 financial statements stating that there was substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

We have incurred historical losses and, as a result, may not be able to generate profits, support our operations or establish a return on invested capital, which can have a detrimental effect on the long-term capital appreciation of our stock.

We incurred losses in 2010 of $4.6 million and had an accumulated deficit of $70.5 million as of December 31, 2010. We cannot predict when or whether we will ever generate a profit or otherwise establish a return on invested capital. We may never be profitable. Our business strategies may not be successful and we may never generate significant revenues or profitability, in any future fiscal period or at all.

We have a number of technology issues to resolve before we will be able to successfully manufacture a full line of commercially viable products.

Although we have completed initial engineering and obtained Underwriters Laboratories certification of our initial R30 light bulb, further development work and third-party testing will be necessary before the technology can be deployed and we can commence production of a full line of lighting products. Specifically, we are continuing to work on our standard Edisonian A19 screw-in light bulb, including obtaining acceptable life and output specifications. If we are unable to solve current and future technology issues, we will not be able to manufacture a full line of commercially viable products. In addition, if we encounter difficulty in solving technology issues, our research and development costs could increase substantially and our development and production schedules could be significantly delayed.

We have no experience manufacturing our ESL light bulbs on a large scale, commercial basis.

Our future operating results will depend on our ability to manufacture our products. To do so, we will have to develop manufacturing processes and the manufacturing capability that will allow us to produce high volumes of products at commercially viable yields. Although we have developed manufacturing processes, we have no experience in manufacturing our products on a large scale, commercial basis. We do not know whether the processes we have developed or our manufacturing capabilities will be capable of supporting large-scale manufacturing, or whether we will be able to develop the other processes necessary for large-scale manufacturing of light bulbs that meet the requirements for cost, schedule, quality, engineering, design, production standards and volume requirements. Because we have limited experience with manufacturing our products, we may not be able to establish manufacturing capacity at a reasonable cost, maintain the quality of our products as production increases or develop the administrative and operational infrastructure necessary to support expanded operations. If we fail to develop or obtain the necessary manufacturing capabilities, or if we fail to achieve volume production of our products with competitive yields at acceptable costs, it will significantly alter our business plans and could have a material adverse effect on our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations.

We have experienced significant delays in executing our business plan, and further delays will reduce the likelihood that we will be able to manufacture products or generate sufficient revenue to stay in business.

We have previously experienced significant delays in executing our business plan. These delays are attributable to a number of factors, including:

unanticipated difficulties and increased expenses in developing our technology,

unanticipated difficulties in our manufacturing processes and

our inability to obtain funding in a timely manner.

In the future, we may experience delays caused by these and other factors. Our business must be viewed in light of the problems, expenses, complications and delays frequently encountered in connection with the development of new technologies, products, markets and operations. If we are unable to anticipate or manage challenges confronting our business in a timely manner, we may be unable to continue our operations.

We must fulfill our obligation under the real estate purchase agreement for the Sendio facility. If we cannot pay the balance of the purchase price, we may lose our manufacturing facility.

Under the purchase agreement for our Sendio manufacturing facility in the Czech Republic, Sendio is required to make significant payments totaling approximately $9.0 million by June 30, 2011. We currently do not have the funds to pay the balance of the purchase price, and we will need to obtain additional financing to fulfill our payment obligation under the purchase agreement. If we are unable to obtain the financing, we will need to negotiate with the landlord to extend the closing date of the building purchase or extend the lease beyond its current term of June 30, 2011. We have an agreement in principle with the landlord to extend the lease and defer the purchase of the building until June 30, 2012, but no formal agreement has been signed.

We must successfully develop, introduce, manufacture, market and sell lighting products and manage our operating expenses.

To be a viable business, we must successfully develop, introduce, manufacture, market and sell products and manage our operating expenses. Many of our lighting products are still in development and are subject to the risks inherent in the development of technology products, including unforeseen delays, expenses, patent challenges and complications frequently encountered in the development and commercialization of technology products, the dependence on and attempts to apply new and rapidly changing technology, and the competitive environment of the industry. Many of these events are beyond our control, such as unanticipated development requirements, delays and difficulties with obtaining third-party certification, delays in submitting documentation for and being granted patents and manufacturing problems. Our success also depends on our ability to maintain high levels of employee utilization, manage our production costs, sales and marketing costs and general and administrative expenses, and otherwise execute on our business plan. We may not be able to effectively and efficiently manage our development and growth. Any inability to do so could increase our expenses and negatively impact our results of operations.

We rely heavily on a few consultants and employees, the loss of whom could have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results and financial condition.

Our future success will depend in significant part upon the continued services of our executive officers and directors and certain key consultants, and our ability to attract, assimilate and retain highly qualified technical, managerial and sales and marketing personnel when needed. Competition for quality personnel is intense, and there can be no assurance that we can retain our existing key personnel or that we will be able to attract, assimilate and retain such employees in the future when needed. The loss of key personnel or the inability to hire, assimilate or retain qualified personnel in the future could have a material adverse effect on our business.

We rely on outside suppliers to manage certain key business processes, and any failure to perform will negatively affect our business.

We have outsourced certain of our key business processes. In September 2010, we retained Integrated Sales Solutions II, LLC to help develop our sales, marketing and distribution strategies and channels. If any of these service providers fail to perform or at a satisfactory level, our business development will be negatively affected and delayed, and our reputation may be harmed.

Our future operating results are difficult to predict; thus, the future of our business is uncertain.

Due to our limited operating history and the significant development and manufacturing objectives that we must achieve to be successful, our quarterly and annual operating results are difficult to predict and are expected to vary significantly from period to period. In addition, the amount and duration of losses will be extended if we are unable to develop and manufacture our products in a timely manner. Factors that could inhibit our product development and manufacturing and future operating results include:

failure to solve existing or future technology-related issues in a timely manner,

failure to obtain sufficient financing when needed,

failure to secure key manufacturing or other strategic partnerships and

competitive factors, including the introduction of new products, product enhancements and the introduction of new or improved technologies by our competitors, the entry of new competitors into the lighting markets and pricing pressures.

We face currency risks associated with fluctuating foreign currency valuations.

With operations in the Czech Republic through our Sendio subsidiary, Sendio’s accounts, which primarily consist of lease payments, compensation and other R&D and administrative expenses, are denominated in the Czech Koruna (CZK) and the Euro. An increase in the value of the CZK and Euro in relation to the U.S. dollar would have an adverse effect on our operating expenses. In addition, we may engage in business in other countries, particularly in the European Union, and our operating results will be subject to fluctuations in the value of those currencies against the U.S. dollar. In addition, the financial statements for our Czech subsidiary are denominated in the CZK; accordingly, on a consolidated financial statement reporting basis, these numbers are translated into U.S. dollars and are affected by currency conversion rates. To date, we have not entered into foreign currency contracts or other currency-related derivatives to mitigate the potential impact of foreign currency fluctuations.

Risks Related to Our Industry

Our ability to manufacture products will depend on the continuous supply and availability of raw materials and our business will be susceptible to shortages, unavailability and price fluctuations.

The principal raw materials that we use in manufacturing our light bulbs include glass, electronic components and other required materials. Our business will be adversely affected by any impairment in the supply of these raw materials or by price increases. Although we have identified suppliers for these materials, we do not have supply agreements in place for raw materials, and we will be subject to risk of fluctuations in supply and price. In addition, while we believe that in many instances there are alternative suppliers for these components, replacement suppliers may not be available. If we are unable to secure sufficient quantities of the materials we need to manufacture our light bulbs, if we encounter delays or contractual or other difficulties in our relationships with suppliers, or if we cannot find replacement suppliers at an acceptable cost, then the manufacture of our light bulbs may be disrupted, which would increase our costs, delay our production schedule and have a material adverse effect on our business.

Because we are smaller and have fewer financial resources than most of our competitors, we may not be able to successfully compete in the very competitive lighting industry.

The lighting industry is very competitive and we expect this competition to continue to increase. The general illumination market segment within the lighting industry is dominated by a number of well-funded multi-national companies such as General Electric Company, Phillips Electronics NV and Osram Sylvania, that have established products and are developing new products that compete with our current and planned products. We may not be able to compete effectively against these or other competitors, most of whom have substantially greater financial resources and operating experience than we do. Many of our current and future competitors may have advantages over us, including:

well established products that dominate the market,

longer operating histories,

established customer bases,

substantially greater financial resources,

well established and significantly greater technical, research and development, manufacturing, sales and marketing resources, capabilities and experience and

greater name recognition.

Our current and potential competitors have established, and may continue to establish in the future, cooperative relationships among themselves or with third parties that would increase their market dominance and negatively impact our ability to compete with them. In addition, competitors may be able to adapt more quickly than we can to new or emerging technologies and changes in customer needs, or to devote more resources to promoting and selling their products. If we fail to adapt to market demands and to compete successfully with existing and new competitors, our results of operations could be materially adversely affected. The market for lighting technology is changing rapidly and there can be no assurance that we will be able to compete, especially in light of our limited resources. There can be no assurance that any of our current or planned products can compete successfully on a cost, quality or market acceptance basis with competitors’ products and technologies.

We depend on our intellectual property. If we are unable to protect our intellectual property, we may be unable to compete and our business may fail.

Our success and ability to develop our technology and create products and become competitive depend to a significant degree on our ability to protect our proprietary technology, particularly any patentable material. We rely on a combination of trade secret and other intellectual property law, nondisclosure agreements and other protective measures to preserve our rights to our technology. In addition, any intellectual property protection we seek may not preclude competitors from developing products similar to ours. In addition, the laws of certain foreign countries do not protect intellectual property rights to the same extent as do the laws of the United States.

We do not currently have sufficient available resources to defend a lawsuit challenging our intellectual property rights or to prosecute others who may be infringing our rights. Accordingly, even if we have strong intellectual property rights and patent rights, we may not be able to afford to engage in the necessary litigation to enforce our rights.

We compete in industries where competitors pursue patent prosecution worldwide and patent litigation is customary. At any given time, there may be one or more patent applications filed or patents that are the subject of litigation, which, if granted or upheld, could impair our ability to conduct our business without first obtaining licenses or granting cross-licenses, which may not be available on commercially reasonable terms, if at all. We have several patent applications pending in the United States and internationally and we expect to file additional patent applications; however, none of these patents may ever be issued. We do not perform worldwide patent searches as a matter of custom and, at any given time, there could be patent applications pending or patents issued that may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Other parties may assert intellectual property infringement claims against us, and our products may infringe on the intellectual property rights of third parties. Intellectual property litigation is expensive and time consuming and could divert management’s attention from our business and could result in the loss of significant rights. If there is a successful claim of infringement, we may be required to develop non-infringing technology or enter into royalty or license agreements which may not be available on acceptable terms, if at all. In addition, we could be required to cease selling any of our products that infringe on the intellectual property rights of others. Successful claims of intellectual property infringement against us may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Even successful defense and prosecution of patent suits is costly and time consuming.

We rely in part on unpatented proprietary technology, and others may independently develop the same or similar technology or otherwise obtain access to our unpatented technology. To protect our trade secrets and other proprietary information, we require employees, consultants, advisors and strategic partners to enter into confidentiality agreements. These agreements may not provide meaningful protection for our trade secrets, know-how or other proprietary information in the event of any unauthorized use, misappropriation or disclosure of those trade secrets, know-how or other proprietary information. In particular, we may not be able to protect our proprietary information as we conduct discussions with potential strategic partners. If we are unable to protect the proprietary nature of our technologies, it may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Our lighting products are subject to extensive regulation, compliance with which is expensive and time consuming.

Our current and planned commercial products are and will be subject to extensive regulation, both in the United States and internationally. Compliance with these laws and regulations is expensive and requires significant management time. Failure to comply with applicable laws and regulations could have a material adverse effect on our business.

Failure to obtain and maintain industry certification for our products could cause an erosion of our current competitive strengths.

We are designing our products to be UL® or ETL compliant and intend to seek Energy Star® certification, as well as appropriate certifications in the European Union and in other countries. UL® or ETL compliance certification is a key standard in the lighting industry, and if we fail to obtain or maintain this standard we may not have any market interest for our products. We may not obtain this certification or we may be required to make changes to our light bulbs, which would delay our commercialization efforts and would negatively harm our business and our results of operations.

Rapid technological changes and evolving industry standards could result in our products becoming obsolete and no longer in demand.

The lighting industry is characterized by rapid technological change and evolving industry standards and is highly competitive with respect to timely product innovation. The introduction of products embodying new technology and the emergence of new industry standards can render existing products and technologies obsolete and unmarketable. Our success will depend in part on our ability to successfully develop commercial applications for our technology, anticipate and respond to technology developments and changes in industry standards, and obtain market acceptance on any products we introduce. We may not be successful in the development of our technology, and we may encounter technical or other serious difficulties in our development or commercialization efforts that would materially adversely affect our results of operations.

Risks Related to our Securities and this Offering

Our management and SAM Special Opportunities Fund, L.P. own a substantial amount of our stock and are capable of influencing our affairs.

As of April 11, 2011, our executive officers and directors (and their respective affiliates) beneficially owned approximately 40.4% of our outstanding common stock, with SAM Advisors, LLC, an investment advisor controlled by William B. Smith, our Chairman, beneficially owning approximately 18.8% of our outstanding common stock. As a result, these shareholders substantially influence our management and affairs and, if acting together, control most matters requiring the approval by our shareholders including the election of directors, any merger, consolidation or sale of all or substantially all of our assets and any other significant corporate transactions. The concentration of ownership may delay or prevent a change of control at a premium price.

Our common stock is thinly traded, which may impair your ability to sell your shares at a later time.

The trading volume of our common stock is thin. Therefore, there may not be a large number of potential purchasers ready to buy shares whenever a shareholder desires to sell. The public stock markets generally, and our shares specifically, are volatile and unpredictable. There can be no assurance that shareholders will be able to dispose of their shares at the time they desire to do so or at the desired selling price.

Our articles of incorporation contain authorized, unissued preferred stock which, if issued, may inhibit a takeover at a premium price that may be beneficial to you.

Our articles of incorporation allow us to issue up to 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock without further stockholder approval and upon such terms and conditions, and having such rights, preferences, privileges and restrictions as the board of directors may determine. The rights of the holders of common stock will be subject to, and may be adversely affected by, the rights of holders of any preferred stock that may be issued in the future. In addition, the issuance of preferred stock could have the effect of making it more difficult for a third party to acquire control of, or of discouraging bids for control of our company. This could limit the price that certain investors might be willing to pay in the future for shares of common stock. We have no current plans to issue any shares of preferred stock.

Shares eligible for future sale may adversely affect the market price of our common stock, as the future sale of a substantial amount of our stock in the public market may depress the price of our common stock.

From time to time, certain of our stockholders may be eligible to sell all or some of their shares of common stock by means of ordinary brokerage transactions in the open market pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act, subject to certain limitations. In general, pursuant to Rule 144, a stockholder who is not affiliated with us and has satisfied a six-month holding period may sell its shares without restriction. An affiliate of our company may also, under certain circumstances, sell within any three-month period a number of shares which does not exceed 1% of the then outstanding shares of common stock following the six-month holding period. Any substantial sale of common stock pursuant to Rule 144 or pursuant to any resale prospectus may have an adverse effect on the market price of our common stock.

Any future equity-based financings will dilute our stockholders.

We will need to raise additional financing by the fourth quarter of 2011. If we raise funds through the issuance of equity, equity-linked or debt securities, these securities may have rights, preferences or privileges senior to those of the rights of the common stock. The sale of additional equity or convertible debt securities could result in substantial dilution to stockholders in terms of their percentage ownership and voting interest in our company.

Our common stock is considered a “penny stock” and may be difficult to sell.

Our common stock is subject to certain rules and regulations relating to “penny stock.” A “penny stock” is generally defined as any equity security that has a price less than $5.00 per share and that is not quoted on a national securities exchange. Being a penny stock generally means that any broker who wants to trade in our shares (other than with established clients and certain institutional investors) must comply with certain “sales practice requirements,” including delivery to the prospective purchaser of the penny stock a risk disclosure document describing the penny stock market and the risks associated with it. These penny stock rules make it more difficult for broker-dealers to recommend our common stock and, as a result, our stockholders may have difficulty in selling their shares in the secondary trading market. This lack of liquidity may also make it more difficult for us to raise capital in the future through the sale of our equity securities.

We do not intend to pay cash dividends on our common stock, so any return on investment must come from appreciation.

We have never declared or paid any cash dividends on our common stock and do not intend to pay cash dividends in the foreseeable future. We intend to invest all future earnings, if any, to fund our growth. Therefore, any investment return in our common stock must come from increases in the trading price of our common stock.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF

FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and notes thereto appearing later in this prospectus. Except for historical information, the following discussion contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. See “Forward-Looking Statements” and “Risk Factors.”

Our independent registered public accounting firm has issued a “going concern” statement in its report on our financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2010, stating that we had a net loss and negative cash flows from operations in fiscal 2010, and that we have an accumulated deficit. Accordingly, those conditions raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from this going-concern uncertainty. See Note 3 to Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

Overview

We are focused on developing, manufacturing and selling a line of mercury-free, energy efficient light bulbs based on our proprietary light-emitting technology. For the past several years, we have primarily focused our efforts on research and product development for our Electron Stimulated Luminescence™ (ESL) technology. In 2007, we formed Sendio s.r.o. in the Czech Republic as a wholly-owned subsidiary for continued development of our light bulbs, and to design the manufacturing processes required for commercialization and manufacturing. During 2010, we continued our development work on the technology to refine the prototype with the miniaturization of the electronics and improvements to the efficiency of the bulbs and the design and implementation of the processes required to manufacture our light bulbs. During the second quarter of 2010, we submitted our initial light bulb for safety certification to Underwriters Laboratories (UL) and, in October 2010, we received UL certification. Our efforts are presently focused on our initial product, the R30 sized light bulb. We are currently supporting initial production of this bulb. The commercial viability of our ESL technology will largely depend on these results, the ability to manufacture our product at commercially feasible levels, market acceptance of the product and other factors noted in the “Risk Factors” section of this prospectus. During 2009 and 2010, we had no commercial products and no revenues.

As noted above, our independent registered public accounting firm has issued a “going concern” statement in its report on our financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2010, stating that we had a net loss and negative cash flows from operations in fiscal 2010, and that we have an accumulated deficit. Accordingly, those conditions raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from this going-concern uncertainty.

On February 9, 2011, we completed a private placement to eight institutional accredited investors of 4,911,112 shares of our common stock at a purchase price of $0.45 per share, for gross proceeds of $2,210,000. As part of the private placement, the investors were issued five-year warrants to purchase up to 4,911,112 shares of our common stock at an initial exercise price of $0.60 per share. The net proceeds from the private placement, following the payment of offering-related expenses, are being used by us for our capital expenditure requirements and for working capital and other general corporate purposes. In January 2011, we raised approximately $402,000 from a small group of investors through the private sale of our common stock and warrants.

We will need to raise additional capital through debt or equity financings by the third quarter of 2011 to support our operations. We have entered into an agreement to purchase the facility presently leased by Sendio in the Czech Republic. We are using this facility to develop our ESL technology and manufacturing processes. We will need additional funding to complete the purchase of this building.

Our anticipated expenditures related to our operations in 2011 will primarily depend on personnel costs and additional equipment needs for continued development of our line of light bulbs and the manufacturing processes. In addition, we anticipate we will incur substantial costs related to the planned large-scale production in 2011 related to purchases of raw materials and supplies, marketing, sales and distribution-related costs, and increased administrative costs. An overall estimate of our capital expenditures is primarily dependent upon the success of our development and manufacturing results for our initial bulb, and as such cannot be presently estimated. Any additional capital expenditures will be dependent upon our ability to obtain additional financing.

Our anticipated costs in 2011 for the completion of our line of light bulbs cannot be reasonably estimated due to the inherent uncertainty of the research and feasibility of the manufacturing processes. There can be no assurance that this development process will be successful or, if successful, that the technology will find a market and achieve sales that can sustain our operations without additional funding.

Our emphasis on the development of our planned products, the additional manufacturing processes required and commercial manufacturing, distribution, marketing and branding and the development of sales channels surrounding our light bulbs will command management’s primary attention during 2011. It will also comprise the primary use of our financial resources. In 2011, our success will depend on our ability to develop our planned products that meet industry standards, obtain commercial manufacturing, generate market awareness and acceptance of our planned products, protect our technology through patents and trade secrets, and obtain additional funding to finance our operations. If we are unable for technological, financial, competitive or other reasons to successfully meet these goals, our business and operations will be adversely affected.

Results of Operations for the Years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009

No Revenues

We recognized no revenues in either of fiscal 2010 or 2009.

Research and Development Expenses

For the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, we were involved in a single project to develop and commercialize our proprietary technology. In October 2010, we received certification from Underwriters Laboratories on our R30 size bulb for the United States and Canada. In addition, during the fourth quarter, we initiated the application of our technology to the A19 size bulb. Research and development expenses decreased approximately $881,000 to $2,077,000 for the year ended December 31, 2010 compared to $2,958,000 for the year ended December 31, 2009. For the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, research and development expenses consisted primarily of rent, salaries and related costs, plant utility and operating costs, technical consulting expenses and stock compensation expense. Salary and related costs decreased approximately $359,000 to $1,001,000 in fiscal 2010 compared to $1,360,000 in fiscal 2009 primarily due to reductions in the number of salaried employees during the 2010. Technical consulting expenses decreased approximately $457,000 to $33,000 in fiscal 2010 compared to $490,000 in fiscal 2009 primarily due to reduced use of consultants resulting from the shift of the development processes to the Sendio facility and staff. Rent expense increased approximately $48,000 to $407,000 in fiscal 2010 compared to $359,000 in fiscal 2009. Also included in research and development expense is a non-cash charge for compensation expense of $91,000 for fiscal 2010 and $224,000 for fiscal 2009 resulting from our issuance of common stock to a vendor and issuances of stock and options to purchase common stock under our 2007 Stock Incentive Plan.

We anticipate that our development efforts will continue in 2011 on the R30 bulb and the A19 bulb. We also intend to develop additional bulb sizes as resources allow.

General and Administrative Expenses

General and administrative expenses for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009 consisted of compensation expenses related to stock and options issuances, consulting expenses, salaries and related costs, professional and legal fees, insurance, travel, rents, general and corporate related overheads and office expenses. General and administrative expenses decreased by approximately $8,000 to $2,345,000 for the year ended December 31, 2010 compared to $2,353,000 for the year ended December 31, 2009. In fiscal 2010, non-cash stock compensation expenses increased $584,000 to $941,000 in fiscal 2010 compared to $357,000 in fiscal 2009 resulting from the issuance of common stock and options to purchase common stock. Salary and related costs decreased approximately $338,000 to $391,000 in fiscal 2010 compared to $729,000 in fiscal 2009 primarily due to reductions in the number of salaried employees during 2010. Consulting expenses decreased $47,000 to $313,000 in fiscal 2010 compared to $360,000 in fiscal 2009. The decrease is due to decreased activity and use of consultants in fiscal 2010. Other operating expenses comprised of travel, professional and legal fees, rent and general corporate overheads decreased $278,000 to $556,000 in fiscal 2010 compared to $834,000 in fiscal 2009. The decrease is primarily due to lower travel and general corporate overheads in fiscal 2010.

Marketing Expenses

Marketing expenses for the years December 31, 2010 and 2009 were comprised of salaries and related costs, sales and marketing consulting fees, market research and channel development fees, conference fees and office related expenses. Marketing expenses decreased by approximately $49,000 to $365,000 for the year ended December 31, 2010 compared to $414,000 for the year ended December 31, 2009. This decrease was due primarily to decreases in salaries and related expenses partially offset by increases in consulting fees related to public relations and channel development for the year ended December 31, 2010 when compared to the prior year.

Other Income

Other income and expense for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009 was comprised of interest income, interest expense, other income, loss on extinguishment of debt and derivative valuation gain or loss. Interest income was approximately $14 for fiscal 2010 compared to $3,000 for fiscal 2009. The decrease was due to lower average cash balances during fiscal 2010. Interest expense increased $984,000 in fiscal 2010 to $1,240,000 compared to $256,000 in fiscal 2009. Interest expense was primarily related to the interest and amortization of discount and loan costs on the convertible notes, Sendio’s loan and capital lease obligations as discussed in Notes 7, 9, 10 and 11 to Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. Included in interest expense was discount amortization of $693,000 and $114,000 and amortization of loan costs of $28,000 and $2,000 for fiscal 2010 and 2009, respectively, related to the convertible notes. Also included in interest expense is the fair value of a warrant of $19,125 issued pursuant to the short-term note payable, as discussed in Note 9 to Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

Loss on extinguishment of debt for the year ended December 31, 2010 of $216,000 pertains to the exchange of a note with a face value of $360,350 and warrants to purchase 450,438 shares of common stock in exchange for $344,134 of unpaid, accrued interest through August 1, 2010 payable to Full Spectrum, as discussed in Note 7 to Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. There is no amount for fiscal 2009.

The following table summarizes the effect on our statement of operations related to derivative financial instruments for fiscal 2010 and 2009:

	Year Ended December 31,
	2010			2009
Day one derivative losses	$	-		$	1,315,516
Fair value changes		(1,578,851	)		289,404
Total derivative valuation (gain) loss	$	(1,578,851	)	$	1,604,920

The changes in the fair value of our derivatives are significantly influenced by changes in our trading stock price and changes in interest rates in the public markets. Further, certain elements of the fair value techniques require us to make estimates about the outcome of certain events, such as defaults. We value our derivative financial instruments using a Monte Carlo Simulation Technique (“MCST”). The MCST was selected because this technique embodies all of the types of inputs that we expect market participants would consider in determining the fair value of equity link derivatives embedded in hybrid debt agreements. Those inputs include equity-related inputs, as well as credit risks, interest risks and redemption behaviors. Changes in these inputs will affect the carrying value of our derivative liabilities and therefore the amount of derivative valuation gain (loss) that we are required to record.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our cash was approximately $120,000 as of December 31, 2010. On February 9, 2011, we completed a private placement to eight institutional accredited investors of 4,911,112 shares of our common stock at a purchase price of $0.45 per share, for gross proceeds of $2,210,000. As part of the private placement, the investors were issued five-year warrants to purchase up to 4,911,112 shares of our common stock at an initial exercise price of $0.60 per share. The net proceeds from the private placement, following the payment of offering-related expenses, are being used by us for our capital expenditure requirements and for working capital and other general corporate purposes. In January 2011, we raised approximately $402,000 from a small group of investors through the private sale of our common stock and warrants, including $67,000 of accounts payable converted.

As of December 31, 2010, we had $2,000 of short-term debt, which matures in May 2011.

We anticipate that, with our cash on hand and the proceeds from the February 2011 private placement described above, we will be able to fund our operations into the third quarter of 2011.

We expect to continue to seek additional financing in 2011 to fund our operations, research and product development and manufacturing activities, through one or more debt or equity financings. Our efforts to raise sufficient capital may not be successful, and even if we are able to obtain additional financing, the terms of any such financing may be unfavorable to us and may be highly dilutive to existing stockholders.

If we are unable to obtain sufficient cash to continue to fund operations or if we are unable to locate a strategic partner, we may be forced to curtail or cease operations. Any inability to obtain additional cash as needed would have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations and our ability to continue in existence. Our independent registered public accounting firm added an explanatory paragraph to its opinion on our 2010 financial statements stating that there was substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

Contractual Obligations

The following is a summary of our contractual payment obligations for operating leases as of December 31, 2010:

Contractual Obligations		Total				Less than 1 year				1-3 years				3-5 years				More than 5 years
		$	231,508			$	231,508				—				—				—

Impact of Inflation

We expect to be able to pass inflationary increases for raw materials and other costs on to our customers through price increases, as required, and do not expect inflation to be a significant factor in our business.

Seasonality

Although our operating history is limited, we do not believe our products are seasonal.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We have no off-balance sheet arrangements.

Critical Accounting Estimates and Policies

The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these financial statements requires the use of estimates that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities and expenses. We evaluate our estimates on an ongoing basis and base our estimates on historical experience and on various assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances at that time. The discussion below is intended as a brief discussion of some of the judgments and uncertainties that can impact the application of these policies and the dollar amounts reported on our financial statements. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. We believe that the following critical accounting policy affects our more significant estimates used in the preparation of our financial statements and is important to the understanding of our results of operations. This is not a complete list of all of our accounting policies, and there may be other accounting policies that are significant your understanding of our company. For a detailed discussion on the application of these and our other accounting policies, see Note 2 to our Consolidated Financial Statements included in this report.

Share Based Payments

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

Market risk is the risk of loss to future earnings, to fair values or to future cash flows that may result from changes in the price of a financial instrument. The value of a financial instrument may change as a result of changes in interest rates, exchange rates, commodity prices, equity prices and other market changes.

The functional currency of Sendio in the Czech Republic is the Czech Koruna (CZK). However, the accompanying financial statements have been expressed in USD, which is our functional currency. The accompanying consolidated balance sheets have been translated into USD at the exchange rates prevailing at each balance sheet date. The accompanying consolidated statements of operations have been translated using the average exchange rates prevailing during the periods of each statement. The exchange rate of the CZK against the USD (or any other currency) nonetheless may fluctuate and be affected by, among other things, changes in the political and economic conditions in the Czech Republic and the European Union.

Fluctuations in exchange rates may affect our financial results reported in USD terms without giving effect to any underlying change in our business or results of operations.

Fluctuations in exchange rates may also affect our balance sheet. For example, to the extent that we need to convert USD into CZK for our operations, appreciation of the CZK against the USD would have an adverse effect on the CZK amount that we receive from the conversion. Conversely, if we decide to convert our CZK into USD, appreciation of the USD against the CZK would have a negative effect on the U.S. dollar amount available to us.

We have not used any forward contracts or currency borrowings to hedge our exposure to foreign currency exchange risk, but we may consider the use of such contracts in the future.

BUSINESS

Our Company

Products

During late 2009, we transitioned our U.S. development efforts to the Czech Republic and focused on the application of ESL technology on the requirements of our initial product, an R30 sized light bulb. The R30 size bulb is used primarily in lighting fixtures that are recessed in the ceiling of commercial and residential buildings and are commonly referred to as “recessed can fixtures.” We continued our development work on the technology to refine the prototype with the miniaturization of the electronics and improvements to the efficiency of the bulb and the design and implementation of the processes required for manufacturing the bulb. During the second quarter of 2010, we submitted the R30 bulb for safety certification to Underwriters Laboratories and, in October 2010, we received such certification. We are continuing to refine the size of the bulb, further miniaturize the electronics, and improve the manufacturing processes to enable us to produce the bulb at commercially viable levels.

During the fourth quarter of 2010, we began developing our version of the standard Edisonian A19 screw-in light bulb (and its European equivalent, the A60 bulb). This bulb size is used in ordinary household lamps and non-recessed ceiling fixtures. In December, 2010 we successfully developed a working prototype of this bulb size. We are continuing to refine the prototype with the miniaturization of the electronics and improvements to the efficiency of the bulb. No formal submissions of a final product to Underwriters Laboratories or any other safety certifying laboratory have been made. We are also developing an R40 flood light bulb for the United States commercial market and a smaller R25 light bulb for the European market to be used in recessed lighting fixtures.

The key design features of our current and planned light bulbs are that they are energy efficient, fully dimmable, illuminate immediately when switched on and have a color quality that is warm and similar to incandescent light. Our light bulbs do not contain mercury, a feature which will ease disposal.

We are continuing to refine the design of our planned products to maximize their efficiency, and we expect there will be adjustments to our current designs. We may not be able to successfully develop the full feature set for our planned light bulb, obtain the necessary certifications or commercially manufacture our planned product.

Our emphasis on the development of our planned product, the additional manufacturing processes required and commercial manufacturing, distribution, marketing and branding and the development of sales channels surrounding our light bulb will command management’s primary attention during fiscal 2011. It will also comprise the primary use of our limited financial resources. In 2011, our success will depend on our ability to obtain commercial manufacturing levels for the R30 bulb, generate market awareness and acceptance of our current and planned products, protect our technology through patents and trade secrets, develop our planned products to meet industry standards and obtain additional funding to finance our operations. If we are unable for technological, financial, competitive or other reasons to successfully meet these factors, our business and operations will be materially adversely affected.

Overview of the Lighting Market

Traditional incandescent light bulbs are inefficient because they convert only about 5% of the energy they consume into visible light, with the rest emerging as heat. CFLs use excited gases, or plasmas, to achieve a higher energy conversion efficiency of about 20%. However, the color rendering index, or CRI, of most fluorescent bulbs – in other words, how good their color is compared to an ideal light source – is inferior to that of an incandescent bulb. CFLs also pose environmental concerns because they have historically contained mercury. By avoiding the heat and plasma-producing processes of incandescent bulbs and CFLs, LEDs can have substantially higher energy conversion efficiencies. Current LEDs are very small in size (about one square millimeter) and are extremely bright. Having been developed in the 1980s, they are already employed in various specialty lighting products, such as traffic lights, billboards, replacements for neon lighting and as border or accent lighting. However, the high operating temperatures and intense brightness of LEDs may make them less desirable for general illumination and diffuse lighting applications.

The key design features of our light bulb, on the other hand, are that it is energy efficient, fully dimmable, illuminates immediately when switched on and has a color quality that is warm and similar to incandescent light. In addition, our light bulb does not contain mercury, a feature which will ease disposal. If our efforts are successful, we believe that our lighting products could begin to be used for applications currently addressed by incandescent bulbs, CFLs and LEDs.

Our Competitive Strengths

We believe our position in the lighting market is the direct result of our technological innovation. We have built an intellectual property portfolio around our ESL technology, and are working diligently to scale-up our manufacturing capabilities and to launch our lighting products into the marketplace. Our key competitive strengths include:

Proprietary Technology. Through our internal development efforts in the Czech Republic, we own 11 issued and pending U.S. patents (together with numerous counterparts filed in various foreign countries), and have accumulated over the past four years a substantial amount of technical know-how relating to our ESL technology.

Manufacturing Capability. We conduct our ESL light bulb development and manufacturing activities at our facility in the Czech Republic, which is operated by our Sendio s.r.o. subsidiary. At this 75,000 square-foot facility, we currently have one active production line with the capacity to produce up to 6.8 million light bulbs per year, with planned future expansion capacity on the same site to add further production lines with an estimated additional 10 million bulb annual capacity per line. We are also seeking partners to manufacture our product.

Experienced Management and Scientific Advisory Team. Our executive officers and directors have significant experience in developing and executing a “go-to-market” business model in a competitive, high growth industry. In addition, our management team has assembled highly-skilled technical personnel in Europe and the United States to conduct ongoing research and development of new light bulbs and next-generation technologies.

Our Growth Strategy

Target Markets and Customers

We are initially targeting the US R30/R40 reflector light bulb market. According to recent reports, the U.S. residential market is comprised of 800 million recessed can lights with over 140 million bulbs sold per year (“CFL Market Profile,” U.S. Department of Energy, March 2009 and “A Review of the Reflector Compact Fluorescent Lamps Technology Procurement Program: Conclusions and Results,” Pacific Northwest National Laboratory, May 2008).

Significant lighting market drivers are size, shape, cost, brightness, color rendering, mercury free, dimming capability and energy efficiency. We are directing our product development efforts with awareness of these features. Distribution in this market segment is primarily through distributors (typically regional) or directly from manufacturers to larger retailers.

Intellectual Property, Patents and Proprietary Rights

We are developing the necessary documentation, and we have applied for patent protection on our proprietary light-emitting technology. We have filed a total of 11 U.S. patent applications and related international patent filings, and we expect to apply for additional patent protection on our technology and our manufacturing processes both domestically and internationally in the future. We believe that our technology has unique aspects that are patentable; however, there can be no assurances that any patent will be issued or if issued that it will be defensible.

We protect our intellectual property rights through a combination of trademark, copyright, trade secret laws and other methods of restricting disclosure, and requiring our independent consultants, strategic vendors and suppliers to sign non-disclosure agreements as well as an assignment of inventions agreements when appropriate.

Raw Materials and Supplies

Development and production of our light bulbs will require certain raw materials, including glass, electronics, coatings, certain chemicals and chemical compounds, plastic and packaging. We have identified key targeted suppliers for these raw materials and we have entered into discussions with several of them regarding supply arrangements. Currently, we do not have dedicated supply agreements with all suppliers. We anticipate that most of our raw material purchases will not be pursuant to a supply agreement but will be by purchase order. In addition, we are continuing to identify alternative suppliers for our raw material needs. We believe that we will be able to obtain the supplies used in our development process from a number of vendors.

Research and Development

We have spent an aggregate of approximately $5.03 million during fiscal 2010 and 2009 in our development efforts. In addition, we have acquired manufacturing equipment for approximately $0.1 million.

Manufacturing

We conduct our ESL light bulb development and manufacturing activities at our facility in the Czech Republic, which is operated by our Sendio s.r.o. subsidiary. At this 75,000 square-foot facility, we have estimated the existing production line to have an annual capacity of up to 6.8 million bulbs once all manufacturing processes are completely developed. In addition, we have planned future expansion capacity to add further production lines with an estimated additional 10 million bulb annual capacity per line. Before we can initiate high volume manufacturing in this facility, we anticipate that we will need to obtain and install additional equipment. Before we can initiate large-scale manufacturing at this facility, we anticipate that we will need to obtain and install additional equipment. For more information about our manufacturing facility, see “Facilities” below.

Marketing, Sales and Distribution

During 2010, we continued our marketing initiatives to determine our initial marketing strategy and research and to begin branding and corporate positioning issues. Our marketing efforts have included market research to determine market size, competition, product features, consumer attitudes, pricing, certifications, government agencies, grants, target channels and retailers, branding and creation of initial marketing collateral. We have also had strategic and pre-contractual meetings with certain retailers and potential channel and distribution partners to determine levels of interest in our light bulb and the underlying technology. We believe that the results of these meetings were positive but no agreements have been entered into.

During 2010, we also initiated our efforts to sell our bulbs directly to consumers through an online order facility at our company’s corporate website. We began shipping orders through this facility in March, 2011. We intend to make further enhancements during 2011 to our website including an online secure merchant storefront for bulb orders.

In early 2011, we also selected a vendor to assist us with the specific packaging and display design requirements of big box retailers.

Twenty states have enacted Conservation Improvement Programs (“CIP”). Through a CIP, electric and natural gas utilities are required to invest a portion of their state revenues in projects designed to reduce their customers' consumption of electricity and natural gas, and to generally improve resource efficiency. One form of CIP investment is conducting “give-aways” of energy efficient lighting products. Alternatively, some states provide cash rebates to light bulb manufacturers, stores or directly to the consumer. We have met with a number of utilities and utility groups to determine interest in the promotion of ESL energy efficient bulbs. We believe that the results of these meetings were positive but no agreements have been entered into.

In September 2010, we entered into a agreement with Integrated Sales Solutions II, LLC (“ISS”) to enhance our capabilities in designing and establishing sales strategy and distribution channels with retail, electrical utilities, electrical distributors and government agencies. ISS advises and assists us in defining logistics, warehousing, finished good requirements, distribution, packaging, merchandising, and support for our ESL bulbs. We work closely with ISS to develop programs aimed at further developing these channels and potential distribution partnerships.

Our technology has been featured on the Discovery Channel website, Popular Science website, CNET website and on the New York Times website.

Government Regulation and Industry Certification

In October 2010, we obtained safety certification from Underwriters Laboratories for our R30 light bulb. This certification enables us to sell our bulbs in the United States and Canada.

Any commercial light bulb product that we develop in the future will require certifications from an independent third party testing laboratory prior to their sale. There is presently no Energy Star® certification standard for our product. However, we are in discussion with Energy Star® in relations to its new self certification system which will be available later this year. In addition, we may be subject to other certifying agencies and other regulatory approvals. The approvals and certifications required will be determined based upon the market that we enter. We are designing our light bulbs to meet the standards for certification from independent third party laboratories, and we intend to submit an application to the appropriate testing laboratory once we have completed the necessary development and manufacturing processes required to obtain certification. We cannot predict whether we will obtain certification from an independent third party testing laboratory or any other regulatory agency.

Competition

This market segment is highly competitive and traditionally dominated by several large competitors such as General Electric Company, Philips Electronics NV and Osram Sylvania. These entities possess far more substantial financial, human and other resources than we do. There also are hundreds of small manufacturers of low end products – many inexpensive and often poor performing CFL bulbs. Many companies are now developing products utilizing LED technology. Philips spent over $4 billion acquiring LED technology companies in 2008. As energy efficient technologies are adopted, it is likely that the industry will continue to be dominated by large competitors who will often outsource manufacturing to smaller companies. Research will continue on incandescent type technologies such as halogen infrared reflecting. Abandoned technologies such as induction lighting may temporarily re-emerge. Over the last four years in meetings with electric utilities, Department of Energy consultants, electrical distributors and major retailers, we have not identified any competitors with a similar technology to ESL.

Environmental Compliance

We will be subject to certain environmental requirements and laws in the Czech Republic that have been identified related to our manufacturing processes. We have obtained the necessary permits required for the current development operations of the facility in the Czech Republic. We may be subject to additional environmental requirements in the future.

Employees

As of April 11, 2011, we had 38 full-time employees in the Czech Republic through our Sendio subsidiary, plus 1 full-time employee in the United States. We have routinely used consultants in our U.S. operations and strategic vendors on a work-for-hire contract basis. None of our employees are subject to a collective bargaining agreement and we consider relations with employees to be good.

Facilities

Our corporate headquarters consisting of approximately 200 square feet, are located in New York, New York which we have leased through April 30, 2011 for total rent per month of $1,320.

Our manufacturing facility and research and development laboratories are located in Olomouc in the Czech Republic. We occupy the entire 75,000 square-foot facility. We pay approximately $38,000 per month in rent under a lease that extends through June 2011. In 2008, we entered into a purchase agreement with the landlord to acquire the building and property at which this facility is located for approximately $9.0 million. We will need to obtain additional financing to fulfill our payment obligation under the purchase agreement. We have an agreement in principle with the landlord to extend the lease and defer the purchase of the building until June 30, 2012, but no formal agreement has been signed. See Note 6 to Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for a further discussion of the lease and purchase agreements.

Legal Proceedings

We are not involved in any pending or threatened legal proceedings.

Employment Agreements

On October 4, 2010, we executed an Executive Employment Agreement with our Chief Executive Officer and director, Philip G. Styles. The agreement provides for a salary of $240,000 per year effective as of that date. In addition, we granted a ten-year option to purchase 1,000,000 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $0.51 per share vesting ratably through October 3, 2011. The grant was made from the 2007 Stock Compensation Plan and pursuant to our standard form of stock option agreement. The exercise price for the stock option grant was set at the closing market price of our common stock on the OTC Bulletin Board on October 4, 2010, the date that the board approved the contract. Mr. Styles is paid his monthly annual salary of approximately $8,000, and the remaining monthly amount of $12,000 is being converted into common stock at a price of $0.51 per share, which represents the price of our common stock on the date his employment agreement was approved by our board of directors.

The Executive Employment Agreement also calls for the payment of six months’ annual salary in the event Mr. Styles is terminated other than for cause, as defined in the Employment Agreement. The Executive Employment Agreement expires on October 3, 2011, unless terminated earlier in accordance with the agreement.

On July 9, 2010, we executed an Executive Employment Agreement with our former Chief Executive Officer and Director, R. Gale Sellers. The agreement provided for a salary of $240,000 per year effective January 1, 2010. In addition, we granted a ten-year option to purchase 1,000,000 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $0.43 per share vesting 500,000 shares upon the execution of the contract with the remaining 500,000 options vesting ratably through December 31, 2010. The grant was made from the 2007 Stock Compensation Plan and pursuant to our standard form of stock option agreement. The exercise price for the stock option grant was set at the closing market price of our common stock on the OTC Bulletin Board on July 9, 2010, the date that the board approved the contract.

The Executive Employment Agreement also called for the payment of six months’ annual salary in the event Mr. Sellers was terminated other than for cause, as defined in the Employment Agreement.

Mr. Sellers resigned as our Chief Executive Officer effective September 30, 2010 and the board of directors agreed to honor the terms of the annual salary and stock options until December 31, 2010.

The assumptions used in the valuation of the options are discussed more fully in Note 12 to Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

We do not have agreements with any of our other Named Executive Officers providing for payments, whether from resignation, retirement or other termination of employment, resulting from a change of control.

Director Compensation

Non-employee Director Compensation. Non-employee directors currently receive no cash compensation for serving on our board of directors, other than reimbursement of all reasonable expenses for attendance at board and board committee meetings. Under our 2007 Stock Compensation Plan, non-employee directors are entitled to receive stock options to purchase shares of common stock or restricted stock grants. During the year ended December 31, 2010, no options to purchase shares of stock were granted to the non-employee directors for their service on the board.

Employee Director Compensation. Directors who are employees of our company receive no compensation for services provided in that capacity, but are reimbursed for out-of-pocket expenses in connection with attendance at meetings of our board and its committees.

The table below summarizes the compensation we paid to non-employee directors for the year ended December 31, 2010:

SELLING STOCKHOLDERS

February 2011 Private Placement

On February 9, 2011, we completed a private placement to eight institutional accredited investors of 4,911,112 shares of our common stock at a purchase price of $0.45 per share for gross proceeds of $2,210,000. As part of the private placement, the investors were issued five-year warrants to purchase up to 4,911,112 shares of our common stock at an initial exercise price of $0.60 per share. For each of the warrants, the holder will be able to exercise the warrant on a so-called cashless basis at any time following the one-year anniversary of the closing of the private placement that a registration statement covering the shares of our common stock underlying such warrants is not effective. The net proceeds from the private placement, following the payment of offering-related expenses, are being used by us for our capital expenditure requirements and for working capital and other general corporate purposes.

At the closing of the private placement, we paid Rodman & Renshaw LLC, the placement agent for the private placement, cash compensation of 7% of the gross proceeds of the private placement and a five-year warrant to purchase up to 343,778 shares of our common stock at an initial exercise price of $0.60 per share. The terms of the placement agent's warrant are substantially identical to the warrants issued to investors in the private placement.

We have agreed, pursuant to the terms of a registration rights agreement with the investors, to (i) file this shelf registration statement with respect to the resale of the shares of our common stock sold to the investors and shares of our common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants with the SEC on or before April 10, 2011; (ii) use our best efforts to have this shelf registration statement declared effective by the SEC as soon as possible after the initial filing, and in any event no later than 90 days after the closing date (or 150 days in the event of a review of the shelf registration statement by the SEC), and (iii) keep this shelf registration statement effective until all registrable securities may be sold under Rule 144 under the Securities Act of 1933. If we are unable to comply with any of the above covenants, we will be required to pay liquidated damages to the investors in the amount of 1.5% of the investors’ purchase price per month during such non-compliance (capped at a maximum of 10% of the purchase price), with such liquidated damages payable in cash.

The investors agreed, pursuant to the securities purchase agreement, not to engage in any short sales (as defined in the agreement) until the earlier of the effective date of this shelf registration statement or the date when the shares of our common stock sold to the investors and shares of our common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants are eligible for sale under Rule 144 under the Securities Act of 1933. We also granted the investors the right to participate in future equity financing transactions within the 12 months following the closing of the private placement and agreed to certain restrictions on our ability to sell our equity securities until 60 days after the effective date of this shelf registration statement.

The shares of our common stock and warrants issued in the private placement were exempt from registration under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933 as a sale by an issuer not involving a public offering or under Regulation D promulgated pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933. None of the shares of common stock or warrants, or shares of our common stock underlying such warrants, were registered under the Securities Act, or the securities laws of any state, and were offered and sold in reliance on the exemption from registration afforded by Section 4(2) and Regulation D (Rule 506) under the Securities Act and corresponding provisions of state securities laws, which exempts transactions by an issuer not involving any public offering. Such securities may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from the registration requirements and certificates evidencing such shares contain a legend stating the same.

Selling Stockholder Table

The following table sets forth:

the name of the selling stockholders,

the number of shares of common stock beneficially owned by the selling stockholders as of April 11, 2011,

the amount and percentage of common stock that would be owned by the selling stockholders after completion of the offering, assuming a sale of all of the common stock that may be offered by this prospectus.

The shares issuable under these securities are treated as outstanding for computing the percentage ownership of the person holding these securities, but are not treated as outstanding for the purposes of computing the percentage ownership of any other person.

(1)

Beneficial ownership as of April 11, 2011, for all selling stockholders based upon information provided by the selling stockholders or otherwise known to us. Beneficial ownership is reported without regard to the beneficial ownership limitations (further discussed in footnote 2 below) applicable to the common stock or the warrants held by the selling stockholders.

(2)

The number of shares and the percentage in the applicable column includes shares of common stock and shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of our warrants. The agreement with respect to which these stockholders purchased our common stock and warrants contains a limitation of 9.9% (a so-called “blocker”) on the number of shares such stockholders may beneficially own at any time. The 9.9% ownership limitation, however, does not prevent a stockholder from selling some of its holdings and then receiving additional shares. In this way, a stockholder could sell more than the 9.9% ownership limitation while never holding more than this limit. The number of shares and the percentage, as the case may be, in this column does not reflect the 9.9% ownership limitation.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

Each selling stockholder of the securities and any of their pledgees, assignees and successors-in-interest may, from time to time, sell any or all of their securities covered by this prospectus on the principal trading market or any other stock exchange, market or trading facility on which the securities are traded or in private transactions. These sales may be at fixed or negotiated prices. A selling stockholder may use any one or more of the following methods when selling securities:

ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker dealer solicits purchasers;

block trades in which the broker dealer will attempt to sell the securities as agent but may position and resell a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction;

purchases by a broker dealer as principal and resale by the broker dealer for its account;

an exchange distribution in accordance with the rules of the applicable exchange;

privately negotiated transactions;

settlement of short sales entered into after the effective date of the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part;

in transactions through broker dealers that agree with the Selling Stockholders to sell a specified number of such securities at a stipulated price per security;

through the writing or settlement of options or other hedging transactions, whether through an options exchange or otherwise;

a combination of any such methods of sale; or

10.

any other method permitted pursuant to applicable law.

The selling stockholders may also sell securities under Rule 144 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, if available, rather than under this prospectus.

Broker-dealers engaged by the selling stockholders may arrange for other brokers dealers to participate in sales. Broker-dealers may receive commissions or discounts from the selling stockholders (or, if any broker dealer acts as agent for the purchaser of securities, from the purchaser) in amounts to be negotiated, but, except as set forth in a supplement to this prospectus, in the case of an agency transaction not in excess of a customary brokerage commission in compliance with FINRA Rule 2440; and in the case of a principal transaction a markup or markdown in compliance with FINRA IM-2440.

In connection with the sale of the securities or interests therein, the selling stockholders may enter into hedging transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions, which may in turn engage in short sales of the securities in the course of hedging the positions they assume. The selling stockholders may also sell securities short and deliver these securities to close out their short positions, or loan or pledge the securities to broker-dealers that in turn may sell these securities. The selling stockholders may also enter into option or other transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions or create one or more derivative securities which require the delivery to such broker-dealer or other financial institution of securities offered by this prospectus, which securities such broker-dealer or other financial institution may resell pursuant to this prospectus (as supplemented or amended to reflect such transaction).

The selling stockholders and any broker-dealers or agents that are involved in selling the securities may be deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of the Securities Act in connection with such sales. In such event, any commissions received by such broker-dealers or agents and any profit on the resale of the securities purchased by them may be deemed to be underwriting commissions or discounts under the Securities Act. Each selling stockholder has informed us that it does not have any written or oral agreement or understanding, directly or indirectly, with any person to distribute the securities. In no event shall any broker-dealer receive fees, commissions and markups which, in the aggregate, would exceed eight percent (8%).

We are required to pay all legal, accounting, registration, printing and related fees and expenses incurred by us incident to the registration of the securities. We have agreed to indemnify the selling stockholders against losses, claims, damages and liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act, in connection with any misrepresentation made by us in this prospectus.

Because selling stockholders may be deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of the Securities Act, they will be subject to the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act including Rule 172 thereunder. In addition, any securities covered by this prospectus which qualify for sale pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act may be sold under Rule 144 rather than under this prospectus. The selling stockholders have advised us that there is no underwriter or coordinating broker acting in connection with the proposed sale of the resale securities by the selling stockholders.

We agreed to keep this prospectus effective until the earlier of (i) the date on which the securities may be resold by the selling stockholders without registration and without regard to any volume or manner-of-sale limitations by reason of Rule 144, without the requirement for us to be in compliance with the current public information under Rule 144 under the Securities Act or any other rule of similar effect or (ii) all of the securities have been sold pursuant to this prospectus or Rule 144 under the Securities Act or any other rule of similar effect. The resale securities will be sold only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers if required under applicable state securities laws. In addition, in certain states, the resale securities covered hereby may not be sold unless they have been registered or qualified for sale in the applicable state or an exemption from the registration or qualification requirement is available and is complied with.

Under applicable rules and regulations under the Exchange Act, any person engaged in the distribution of the resale securities may not simultaneously engage in market making activities with respect to the common stock for the applicable restricted period, as defined in Regulation M, prior to the commencement of the distribution. In addition, the selling stockholders will be subject to applicable provisions of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations thereunder, including Regulation M, which may limit the timing of purchases and sales of securities of the common stock by the selling stockholders or any other person. We will make copies of this prospectus available to the selling stockholders and have informed them of the need to deliver a copy of this prospectus to each purchaser at or prior to the time of the sale (including by compliance with Rule 172 under the Securities Act).

DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES

Our authorized capital stock consists of 210,000,000 shares, of which 200,000,000 shares are designated as common stock and 10,000,000 shares are designated as preferred stock. As of April 11, 2011, there were issued and outstanding:

110,806,462 shares of common stock,

warrants to purchase 14,171,123 shares of common stock at a weighted average exercise price of $0.71 per share, and

stock options to purchase 7,280,015 shares of common stock at a weighted average exercise price of $0.57 per share.

The following summary of the material provisions of our common stock, warrants, articles of incorporation and by-laws is qualified by reference to the provisions of our certificate of incorporation and by-laws and the forms of warrant included or incorporated by reference as exhibits to the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part.

Common Stock

All shares of our common stock have equal voting rights and, when validly issued and outstanding, have one vote per share in all matters to be voted upon by the stockholders. Cumulative voting in the election of directors is not allowed, which means that the holders of more than 50% of the outstanding shares can elect all the directors if they choose to do so and, in such event, the holders of the remaining shares will not be able to elect any directors. The affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the shares of common stock present or represented at a stockholders meeting is required to elect directors and to take other corporate actions. Holders of our common stock are entitled to receive ratably such dividends, if any, as may be declared by our board of directors out of legally available funds. However, the current policy of our board of directors is to retain earnings, if any, for the operation and expansion of the company. Upon liquidation, dissolution or winding-up, the holders of our common stock are entitled to share ratably in all of our assets which are legally available for distribution, after payment of or provision for all liabilities and the liquidation preference of any outstanding preferred stock. The holders of our common stock have no preemptive, subscription, redemption or conversion rights. All issued and outstanding shares of common stock are, and the common stock reserved for issuance upon exercise of our stock options and warrants will be, when issued, fully-paid and non-assessable.

Preferred Stock

Our certificate of incorporation authorizes the issuance of up to 10,000,000 shares of “blank check” preferred stock with designations, rights and preferences as may be determined from time to time by our board of directors. No preferred shares are currently issued or outstanding.

Warrants

The following is a brief summary of material provisions of the warrants issued in the February 2011 private placement.

Exercise Price and Terms. Each warrant entitles the holder thereof to purchase at any time until February 9, 2016, at a price of $0.60 per share, subject to certain adjustments referred to below, shares of our common stock. The holder of any warrant may exercise such warrant by surrendering the warrant to us, with the notice of exercise properly completed and executed, together with payment of the exercise price. The warrants may also be exercised on a cashless-exercise basis by investors if a resale registration statement covering the shares underlying the warrants has not been declared effective by February 8, 2012. The warrants may be exercised at any time in whole or in part at the applicable exercise price until expiration of the warrants. No fractional shares will be issued upon the exercise of the warrants.

Adjustments. The exercise price and the number of shares of common stock purchasable upon the exercise of the warrants are subject to adjustment upon the occurrence of certain events, including stock dividends, stock splits, combinations or reclassifications of the common stock. Additionally, an adjustment would be made in the case of a reclassification or exchange of common stock, consolidation or merger of our company with or into another corporation (other than a consolidation or merger in which we are the surviving corporation) or sale of all or substantially all of our assets in order to enable holders of the warrants to acquire the kind and number of shares of stock or other securities or property receivable in such event by a holder of the number of shares of common stock that might otherwise have been purchased upon the exercise of the warrant. No adjustment to the number of shares and exercise price of the shares subject to the warrants will be made for dividends (other than stock dividends), if any, paid on our common stock. If we issue any shares of common stock, preferred stock, stock options, warrants or convertible securities at a price less than $0.60 per share (subject to certain excluded stock issuances in connection with employee stock option grants and for mergers and acquisitions), then the exercise price will be automatically reduced to such lower price, provided that the exercise price of the warrants may not be adjusted to less than $0.45 per share.

Transfer, Exchange and Exercise. The warrants may be presented to us for exchange or exercise at any time on or prior to February 8, 2016, at which time the warrants become wholly void and of no value. Prior to any transfer of the warrants the holder must notify us of the same and, if subsequently requested, provide a legal opinion regarding the transfer to us.

Warrantholder Not a Stockholder. The warrants do not confer upon holders any voting, dividend or other rights as shareholders of our company.

Trading Information

Our shares of common stock are currently quoted in the over-the-counter market on the OTC Bulletin Board. Our warrants will not be registered or listed for trading.

Transfer Agent

The transfer agent and registrar for our common stock is American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, LLC, 6201 15th Avenue, Brooklyn, New York 11219. We serve as warrant agent for the warrants.

Anti-Takeover Law, Limitations of Liability and Indemnification

Anti-Takeover Law

Provisions of the California General Corporation Law and our articles of incorporation and by-laws may delay, defer or prevent a change of control of our company and/or limit the price that certain investors may be willing to pay in the future for shares of our common stock.

California Corporations Code. Under the California General Corporation Law, most business combinations, including mergers, consolidations and sales of substantially all of the assets of a corporation, must be approved by the vote of the holders of at least a majority of the outstanding shares of common stock and any other affected class of stock of a California corporation. The articles or by-laws of a California corporation may, but are not required to, set a higher standard for approval of such transactions. The California General Corporation Law also provides certain restrictions on business combinations involving interested parties.

Advance Notice Provisions for Shareholder Nominations and Shareholder Proposals. Nominations for directors may be made by the board of directors or by any holder of record of any outstanding class of capital stock of our company entitled to vote for the election of directors. Nominations for directors, other than those approved by the board of directors, shall be made in writing and shall be delivered or mailed to the secretary of our company not less than 14 days nor more than 50 days prior to the scheduled date of the meeting; provided, that if less than 21 days’ notice of the meeting is given to the shareholders, such nominations shall be mailed or delivered to the secretary of our company not later than the close of business on the 7th day following the day on which notice of the meeting was mailed to the shareholders.

Blank Check Preferred Stock. Subject to certain limitations, our board of directors has the authority to designate the rights and preferences of, and issue one or more series of, preferred stock without shareholder approval. The issuance of shares of preferred stock, or the issuance of rights to purchase such shares, could be used to discourage an unsolicited acquisition proposal.

Limited Liability and Indemnification

Section 317 of the California General Corporation Law authorizes a court to award, or a corporation’s board of directors to grant, indemnity to directors and officers who are parties or are threatened to be made parties to any proceeding (with certain exceptions) by reason of the fact that the person is or was an agent of the corporation, against expenses, judgments, fines, settlements and other amounts actually and reasonably incurred in connection with the proceeding if that person acted in good faith and in a manner the person reasonably believed to be in the best interests of the corporation.

Our board of directors has resolved to indemnify the officers and directors of our company to the fullest extent permitted by Section 317 of the California General Corporation Law, and Article V of our articles of incorporation and Article VI of our by-laws authorize the registrant to provide for indemnification of officers and directors to the same extent. This indemnification limits the personal monetary liability of directors in performing their duties on behalf of the registrant, to the extent permitted by the California General Corporation Law, and permits the registrant to indemnify its directors and officers against certain liabilities and expenses, to the extent permitted by the California General Corporation Law. In addition, the registrant maintains a directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policy that insures its directors and officers against certain liabilities, including certain liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

Additionally, we have entered into indemnification agreements with each of our directors and senior executive officers. The indemnification agreements provide each of the indemnitees with, among other things, indemnification against liabilities relating to their service as directors and officers of our company and the advancement of expenses under certain circumstances, in each case to the fullest extent permitted by law. The indemnification agreements also require us to take commercially reasonable efforts to purchase and maintain one or more policies of directors’ and officers’ liability insurance to cover liabilities asserted against, or incurred by, the indemnitees.

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers or persons controlling us pursuant to the above provisions, we have been informed that, in the opinion of the SEC, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, we will, unless in the opinion of our counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by us is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

SHARES AVAILABLE FOR FUTURE SALE

As of April 11, 2011, we had 110,806,402 shares of common stock outstanding, not including shares issuable upon exercise of our warrants, stock options and other convertible securities. All shares sold in this offering will be freely tradeable without restriction or further registration under the Securities Act, unless they are purchased by our “affiliates,” as that term is defined in Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act.

The outstanding shares of our common stock not included in this prospectus will be available for sale in the public market as follows:

Public Float

Of our outstanding shares, 37,381,112 shares are beneficially owned by executive officers, directors and affiliates. The remaining 73,425,350 shares constitute our public float.

Rule 144

In general, under Rule 144, as currently in effect, a person who has beneficially owned shares of our common stock for at least six months, including the holding period of prior owners other than affiliates, is entitled to sell his or her shares without any volume limitations; an affiliate, however, can sell such number of shares within any three-month period as does not exceed the greater of:

1% of the number of shares of our common stock then outstanding, which equaled 1,108,064 shares as of April 11, 2011, or

the average weekly trading volume of our common stock, assuming our shares are then traded on a national securities exchange, during the four calendar weeks preceding the filing of a notice on Form 144 with respect to that sale.

Sales under Rule 144 are also subject to manner-of-sale provisions, notice requirements and the availability of current public information about us. In order to effect a Rule 144 sale of our common stock, our transfer agent will require an opinion from legal counsel. We may charge a fee to persons requesting sales under Rule 144 to obtain the necessary legal opinions.

As of April 11, 2011, 102,080,837 shares of our common stock are available for sale under Rule 144.

LEGAL MATTERS

Greenberg Traurig, LLP, New York, New York, will pass upon the validity of the shares of common stock offered by this prospectus as our legal counsel.

EXPERTS

The financial statements of Vu1 Corporation as of December 31, 2010 and 2009 and for the years then ended have been audited by Peterson Sullivan LLP, independent registered public accounting firm, to the extent and for the periods set forth in their report appearing elsewhere in this prospectus and are included in reliance upon such report given upon the authority of that firm as experts in auditing and accounting.

INTEREST OF NAMED EXPERTS AND COUNSEL

No expert or counsel named in this prospectus as having prepared or certified any part of this prospectus or having given an opinion upon the validity of the securities being registered or upon other legal matters in connection with the registration or offering of the common stock was employed on a contingency basis, or had, or is to receive, in connection with the offering, a substantial interest, direct or indirect, in the registrant or any of its parents or subsidiaries. Nor was any such person connected with the registrant or any of its parents or subsidiaries as a promoter, managing or principal underwriter, voting trustee, director, officer, or employee.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors

Vu1 Corporation

New York, New York

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Vu1 Corporation and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, and the related consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss, stockholders' equity (deficit), and cash flows for the years then ended. 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 financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company has determined that it is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the 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 financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Vu1 Corporation and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 3 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company incurred a net loss of $4,626,250, and it had negative cash flows from operations of $3,529,351 in 2010. In addition, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $70,499,569 at December 31, 2010. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans regarding those matters are also described in Note 3. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Vu1 CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1 - BUSINESS AND ORGANIZATION

All references in these consolidated financial statements to “we,” “us,” “our,” and the “Company” are to Vu1 Corporation, Sendio, s.r.o., our Czech subsidiary, and our inactive subsidiary Telisar Corporation unless otherwise noted or indicated by its context.

We are focused on developing, manufacturing and selling a line of mercury free, energy efficient light bulbs based on our proprietary light-emitting technology. For the past several years, we have primarily focused on research and development efforts for our technology and the related manufacturing processes.

In September 2007, we formed Sendio, s.r.o. (“Sendio”) in the Czech Republic as a wholly-owned subsidiary for the purpose of operating a research and development and manufacturing facility.

We have one inactive subsidiary, Telisar Corporation, a California corporation and 66.67% majority-owned subsidiary.

NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Vu1 and all of its wholly-owned and controlled subsidiaries. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

Translating Financial Statements

The functional currency of Sendio is the Czech Koruna (CZK). The accounts of Sendio contained in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2010 and 2009 have been translated into United States dollars at the exchange rate prevailing as of those dates. Translation adjustments are included in “Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss,” a separate component of stockholders’ equity. The accounts of Sendio in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009 have been translated using the average exchange rates prevailing for the respective periods. Sendio recorded an aggregate of $5,049 and $4,710 of foreign currency transaction gain as an offset to general and administrative expense in the accompanying statements of operations for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

For purposes of the statements of cash flows, we consider all investments purchased with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. At December 31, 2009, we had cash of $46,170 in excess of federally insured limits in effect as of that date.

F-7

Equipment

Equipment is comprised of equipment used in the testing and development of the manufacturing process of our light bulbs and is stated at cost. We provide for depreciation using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of three to fifteen years. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to operations as incurred while renewals and betterments are capitalized. Gains or losses on the sale of equipment are reflected in the statements of operations. Net book value of assets in the U.S. and Czech Republic were as follows:

	Year Ended December 31,
	2010		2009
United States	$	5,454	$	11,155
Czech Republic		280,589		122,389
	$	286,043	$	133,544

Construction in Process

Construction in process is comprised of assets to be used in the operations in the Czech Republic not in service as of December 31, 2010 and 2009. These assets, when placed in service will be reclassified to equipment and depreciated over their estimated useful lives.

Income Taxes

We recognize the amount of income taxes payable or refundable for the current year and recognize deferred tax assets and liabilities for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement amounts of certain assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. A valuation allowance is required when it is less likely than not that we will be able to realize all or a portion of our deferred tax assets.

FASB ASC 740-10-25 clarifies the accounting for uncertain tax positions and requires that an entity recognizes in the consolidated financial statements the impact of a tax position, if that position is more likely than not of being sustained upon examination, based on the technical merits of the position. Recognized income tax positions are measured at the largest amount that is greater than 50% likely of being realized. Changes in recognition or measurement are reflected in the period in which the change in judgment occurs. The Company has elected to classify interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits, if and when required, as part of income tax expense in the consolidated statements of operations.

Long-Lived Assets

Long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to future net cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount that the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets. Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell. Management reviewed the assets during the fourth quarter of 2010 and determined no impairment was deemed necessary.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Financial instruments consist of cash, receivables, payables and accrued liabilities, derivative financial instruments, loans payable and convertible debt. The fair value of our cash, receivables, payables and accrued liabilities and loans payable are carried at historical cost; their respective estimated fair values approximate their carrying values.

Derivative financial instruments, as defined in ASC 815 “Accounting for Derivative Financial Instruments and Hedging Activities” consist of financial instruments or other contracts that contain a notional amount and one or more underlying (e.g. interest rate, security price or other variable), require no initial net investment and permit net settlement. Derivative financial instruments may be free-standing or embedded in other financial instruments. We generally do not use derivative financial instruments to hedge exposures to cash-flow, market or foreign-currency risks. However, the conversion feature in our convertible promissory notes is not afforded equity classification because it embodies risks not clearly and closely related to the host contract. As required by ASC 815-10, these features are required to be bifurcated and carried as derivative liabilities, at fair value, in our financial statements.

F-8

We carry our long term convertible debt at historical cost. The fair value of our convertible debt in its hybrid form is determined, for disclosure purposes only, based upon its forward cash flows, at credit risk adjusted rates, plus the fair value of the conversion feature. As of December 31, 2009, the fair value of our face value $2,943,191 convertible notes amounted to approximately $5,472,000.

Fair Value Measurements

ASC 820 “Fair Value Measurements” defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. This hierarchy prioritizes the inputs into three broad levels. Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2 inputs are quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets or inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly through market corroboration, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument. Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs based on our own assumptions used to measure assets and liabilities at fair value. A financial asset or liability’s classification within the hierarchy is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Significant fair value measurements resulted from the application of ASC 815 to our convertible promissory note and warrant financing arrangements and ASC 718-10 for our share-based payment arrangements.

Non-Controlling Interest

Non-controlling interest represents the equity of the 33.3% non-controlling shareholders of Telisar Corporation. The subsidiary had no operations during 2010 and 2009.

Revenue Recognition

Revenues are recognized when (a) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, (b) delivery has occurred and no significant obligations remain, (c) the fee is fixed or determinable and (d) collection is determined to be probable. We have not recognized any revenues in the accompanying financial statements.

Research and Development Costs

For financial reporting purposes, all costs of research and development activities performed internally or on a contract basis are expensed as incurred. For the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, research and development expenses were comprised primarily of technical consulting expenses, salaries and related benefits and overheads, rent and operational costs related to the development of the production line. Also included in research and development for the year ended December 31, 2010 and 2009 were non-cash stock compensation charges of $90,585 and $223,591, respectively for the issuance of shares of common stock and options to consultants and employees.

Share-Based Payments

We account for share-based compensation expense to reflect the fair value of share-based awards measured at the grant date. This expense is recognized over the requisite service period and is adjusted each period for anticipated forfeitures. We estimate the fair value of each share-based award on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option valuation model. The Black-Scholes option valuation model incorporates assumptions as to stock price volatility, the expected life of options, a risk-free interest rate and dividend yield. On October 26, 2007 our Board of Directors approved the Vu1 Corporation 2007 Stock Incentive Plan (“Stock Incentive Plan”). A total of 10,000,000 shares of our common stock were authorized for issuance under the plan. The Plan was approved by our stockholders on May 22, 2008. See Note 12.

F-9

Comprehensive Income

Comprehensive income includes all changes in equity (net assets) during a period from non-owner sources. Other comprehensive income presented in the accompanying consolidated financial statements consists of foreign currency translation adjustments.

Loss Per Share

We calculate basic loss per share by dividing loss available to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding, excluding unvested stock. Diluted loss per share is computed similar to basic loss per share except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional shares of common stock that would have been outstanding if the potential common shares, including unvested stock, had been issued and if the additional common shares were dilutive.

The following potentially dilutive common shares are excluded from the computation of diluted net loss per share for all periods presented because the effect is anti-dilutive:

	Year Ended December 31,
	2010		2009
Warrants		8,654,483		10,541,113
Convertible debt		-		7,357,976
Stock options		6,655,015		4,796,875
Unvested stock		347,131		71,625

Total potentially dilutive securities		15,656,629		22,767,589

NOTE 3 - GOING CONCERN MATTERS

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States which contemplate our continuation as a going concern. For the year ended December 31, 2010, we had a net loss of $4,626,250 and we had negative cash flows from operations of $3,529,351. In addition, we had an accumulated deficit of $70,499,569 at December 31, 2010. These factors raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

Recovery of our assets is dependent upon future events, the outcome of which is indeterminable. Our attainment of profitable operations is dependent upon obtaining adequate financing and achieving a level of sales adequate to support our cost structure. In addition, realization of a significant portion of the assets in the accompanying balance sheet is dependent upon our ability to meet our financing requirements and the success of our plans to sell our product. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should we be unable to continue in existence.

On February 8, 2011 we raised gross proceeds of $2,210,000 in a private placement of our common stock and warrants to certain institutional investors. See Note 14.

NOTE 4 – TAX REFUND RECEIVABLE

Tax refund receivable represents the 19% value added tax receivable from the government of the Czech Republic. No allowance for doubtful accounts has been provided as we believe the amounts are fully collectible.

NOTE 6 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Sendio Facility Operating Lease and Purchase Agreement

On May 28, 2008 Sendio entered into a lease contract for certain facilities located in the city of Olomouc in the Czech Republic (the “Lease”). We intend to utilize the facilities to continue our assessment of the feasibility of manufacturing of our energy efficient, mercury free line of light bulbs. The Lease term was one year, effective from July 1, 2008 and terminated on June 30, 2009. The rent for the one year term was CZK 10,000,000, plus mandatory VAT. The rent, after the reduction for amounts paid by other tenants, was payable monthly in the amount of CZK 455,310 for each month from January through June, 2009. On May 29, 2008 Sendio paid a deposit of CZK 4,000,000 to the landlord.

F-11

Effective December 9, 2008 Sendio entered into an agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) to purchase the facilities in the Lease from the landlord. The purchase price for the Premises is CZK 179,000,000 (approximately $9.0 million USD) (the “Purchase Price”) and the scheduled closing date for ownership transfer anticipated in the Purchase Agreement was July 1, 2009. The deposit Sendio paid on May 29, 2008 under the Lease for CZK 4,000,000 was considered an advance on the Purchase Price. We have recorded this amount as a non-current asset as a deposit on building purchase in the accompanying balance sheets as of December 31, 2010 and 2009. The remaining balance of the Purchase Price was payable by means of an escrow account, with payments totaling CZK 175,000,000 originally scheduled to be made to an escrow account in installments, all of which were due June 30, 2009.

Also effective December 9, 2008, as additional inducement for the landlord to enter into the Purchase Agreement, Vu1 entered into a Deed of Guarantee with the landlord under which it guaranteed up to CZK 13,500,000 of the CZK 175,000,000 aggregate payments by Sendio under the Purchase Agreement. The guarantee expires upon full payment by Sendio of this amount.

Sendio did not make the first payment of CZK 11,000,000 due on February 28 and, on March 3, 2009 Sendio and the landlord of the building premises in the Czech Republic amended the payment terms under the Purchase Agreement (“Amendment No. 1”). Under Amendment No. 1, Sendio paid CZK 1,000,000 into the escrow account on March 10, 2009 and deferred the payment under the original payment schedule. Sendio did not make the payments under the revised payment schedule, and we entered into negotiations with the seller to revise the terms of the Purchase Agreement.

Pursuant to these negotiations, Sendio obtained month to month extensions for each month of the lease pursuant to these ongoing negotiations and Sendio agreed to pay CZK 722,556 per month for rent and CZK 645,834 per month for an escrow payment for July through November, 2009.

On December 2, 2009 Sendio executed a new lease agreement (the “New Lease Agreement”) for its existing office and manufacturing facilities in the Czech Republic. The New Lease Agreement commenced on December 1, 2009 and specifies annual rent of CZK 13,365,000 plus applicable VAT taxes (CZK 1,113,750 per month), less amounts paid by existing tenants in the building. The present rent is CZK 719,556 per month after offset of the amounts paid by existing tenants and will increase should the existing tenants vacate the premises by the amount paid by the vacating tenant. The New Lease Agreement expires on June 30, 2011. Sendio is responsible for utilities, maintenance and certain other costs as defined in the lease.

In addition on December 2, 2009 Sendio executed an amendment to the purchase agreement (“Amendment No. 2”) for the facilities. Under Amendment No. 2, Sendio agreed to payments of the remaining purchase price of CZK 170,770,830 as follows:

Payment of CZK 2,167,668 to the escrow account related to the purchase of the building. This payment was made by Sendio.

Payments totaling CZK 12,270,846 payable in 19 monthly installments beginning December 1, 2009 of CZK 645,834 through June 30, 2011 into the escrow account. If any required installment is not made timely as defined in the agreement, the seller is entitled to claim a contractual fine of 60% per year on the past-due amount.

Payment of the remaining purchase price of CZK 156,332,316 into the escrow account on or prior to June 30, 2011. If any required installment is not made timely as defined in the agreement, the seller is entitled to claim a contractual fine of 36% per year on the past-due amount.

Under the Amendment No. 2, the seller specifically waived any claims for contractual penalties, damages or other costs arising out of any defaults by Sendio under the purchase agreement occurring prior to November 30, 2009. However, in the event of future breaches or claims under the purchase agreement by Sendio, Amendment No. 2 provides that the seller may be able to claim contractual penalties of CZK 17,500,000 for defaults prior to June 30, 2009.

F-12

Amendment No. 2 also specifies that the seller has the right to withdraw from the purchase agreement and impose contractual fines in the aggregate amount of up to CZK 26,000,000 (which amount includes the CZK17,500,000 for defaults prior to June 30, 2009 described above) in the event that Sendio does not make any installment payment timely. The seller has the right to collect these from amounts deposited in escrow.

Other Operating Leases

In February, 2009 we entered into a five month lease for our office space in Seattle, Washington. Monthly rent was $1,530. Upon the conclusion of the lease term the lease became month to month on the same terms. This lease was terminated by its terms in November, 2010.

On November 1, 2010 we entered into a six month lease agreement for office space for our corporate headquarters located in New York City, New York. Monthly rental payments are $1,320 under the lease.

Total rent expense was $474,329 and $431,649 for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

The future payments under New York lease and our Sendio operating lease, net of amounts presently paid by other tenants at the Sendio facility as of December 31, 2010 are as follows:

2011			231,508
Total		$	231,508

Investment Banking Agreements

On February 18, 2010 we entered into a Financial Advisory and Investment Banking Services Agreement to assist us with our fundraising efforts. We paid $20,000 as an advisory fee at the inception of the agreement. In addition, the agreement specifies compensation for the placement of equity securities of 8% of any gross proceeds plus warrants equal to 8% of common shares issued or issuable in any financing from investors identified by the investment banker. In addition, if the investment banker moves to conduct a syndicated offering with other brokers, an additional 2% of gross proceeds for a management fee and 3% of gross proceeds will be due for a non accountable expense allowance plus warrants equal to 5% of common shares issued or issuable in such financing.

The agreement also specifies compensation of 6% of gross proceeds with 6% warrant coverage for any mezzanine debt financing and 1.5% of gross proceeds for senior debt with no warrant coverage. The agreement terminated on June 30, 2010. The obligation for payment of fees and warrants as specified above survives for one year subsequent to the termination of the agreement for any amounts raised from investors identified and contacted by the investment banker. No amounts are presently due under this agreement.

On March 10, 2010 we entered into an Investment Banking Agreement to assist us with our fundraising efforts, which expired in June, 2010. The Agreement specifies compensation of 7% of any gross proceeds plus warrants equal to 7% of the number of common shares issued or issuable upon conversion in any financing transaction from investors identified by the investment banker. In addition, the investment banker has a right of first refusal under certain circumstances for a period of 18 months following the termination of the agreement under certain circumstances as defined in the agreement. The obligation for payment of these fees and warrants survives for one year subsequent to the termination of the agreement for any amounts raised from investors identified and contacted by the investment banker. No amounts are presently due under this agreement.

In March, 2009 we signed an exclusive investment banking agreement with an investment banker to assist us with our fundraising efforts. During the term of the agreement and for one year after its termination, upon the closing of a transaction from investors introduced by the investment bank, we will pay the investment bank financing fees ranging from 5% to 7% of the value of the transaction as defined in the agreement. This agreement was terminated on December 31, 2009. As of December 31, 2010 we have no further liability under this agreement. No fees were paid to the investment banker under this agreement.

NOTE 7 – CONVERTIBLE NOTES PAYABLE

On June 8, 2009, Vu1 issued a Secured Convertible Grid Promissory Note to Full Spectrum as amended August 31, 2009 and amended and restated November 19, 2009. On November 19, 2009 we entered into a new Secured Convertible Grid Promissory Note with SAM Special Opportunity Fund, L.P. (collectively, the “Notes”). The Notes provided that Full Spectrum and SAM Special Opportunity Fund, L.P. may make one or more loans to Vu1, at such times and in such amounts as determined by Full Spectrum or SAM Special Opportunity Fund, L.P. in its sole discretion, but not to exceed $7 million. Principal amounts under the Notes were convertible at any time into shares of our common stock at a price of $0.40 per share and were secured by all of our assets. The Note also provided that in conjunction with each advance under the Notes, we would issue three-year warrants to purchase common stock at an exercise price of $0.75 per share equal to 50% of the shares into which each advance was convertible. The Notes bore interest at 18% which was payable in quarterly installments beginning February 1, 2010. We had granted to both lenders a first priority security interest in our assets as collateral security for repayment of their Notes. The Notes were due on June 30, 2011.

Full Spectrum is an LLC that is managed by R. Gale Sellers, an executive officer and director of Vu1. SAM Special Opportunity Fund, L.P. is advised by SAM Advisors, LLC. William B. Smith, the chairman of our board of directors, is President and CEO of SAM Advisors, LLC. Gregory Owens Jr., a member of our board of directors, is a Portfolio Manager at SAM Advisors, LLC and a Managing Director of SAM Special Opportunity Fund, LP.

The holders of the Notes retained out of each advance made to us an amount equal to one interest payment (three months’ accrued interest) (the “Interest Prepayment”), to be applied either to the final quarterly payment of interest due under the Notes, or as payment of accrued and unpaid interest upon an event of default or prepayment of the Notes. The amount retained as interest was treated as a component of the face value of the Notes and as prepaid interest, subject to amortization.

From June 8, 2009 to September 27, 2010 we received advances from Full Spectrum and SAM Special Opportunity Fund, L.P. under their Notes summarized as follows:

	Issuances

Total		11,036,965			12,421,031			23,457,996

The Notes contained a down round provision that enabled the Note holders to convert to our common stock at the lesser of $0.40 per share or the per share price of any future convertible debt or equity offering approved by the Board of Directors. The down round provision required bifurcation of the embedded conversion options and classification in derivative liabilities at fair value because they are no longer considered indexed to the Company’s common stock. We carried the derivative liabilities at fair value, with charges or credits to income for changes in fair value, until the Notes were settled through conversion as described below. The terms of the Notes provided for capitalization of three month’s interest which was treated as a component of the face value of the Notes and a prepaid interest, subject to amortization.

Extinguishment of obligations		(215,873	)		-
	$	3,163,223		$	2,810,747

On September 13, 2010, we exchanged a Note with a face value of $360,350 (including $16,216 of prepaid interest) and warrants to purchase 450,438 shares of common stock in exchange for $344,134 of unpaid, accrued interest through August 1, 2010 payable to Full Spectrum. This transaction was accounted for as an extinguishment of obligations wherein the fair value of the notes and warrants, amounting to $437,253 and $138,970, respectively, were exchanged for the carrying value of the obligation, and the difference of $215,873 was recorded as loss on extinguishment of debt in the accompanying consolidated statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2010.

Information and significant assumptions embodied in our valuations (including equivalent amounts across ranges of simulations resulting from the calculations) of the derivative instrument for the issuances are shown in the following table:

	Year ended December 31,
	2010	2009
Trading market price	$0.19-$0.59	$0.51-$0.91
Expected life (years)	0.85 - 1.25	1.24 - 1.73
Equivalent volatility	88.7% - 145.3%	97.0% - 122.2%
Risk adjusted yield	8.4% - 9.7%	9.7% - 12.0%
Risk adjusted interest rate	15.1%-18.0%	14.4%-18.0%

The warrants issued in conjunction with the Full Spectrum and SAM Special Opportunity Fund, L.P. Notes have strike prices of $0.75 and terms of three years from the issuance date. Warrants achieved equity classification because they met all of the requisite criteria and conditions therefore. However, the initial accounting requires allocation of proceeds among the Notes and their warrants based upon relative fair values. The estimated fair value of the warrants reflected in the table above represent the relative fair values of the warrants, derived by allocating the proceeds to the warrants and Notes based upon their respective fair values. Fair values of warrants were calculated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following assumptions:

The following table shows the cumulative advances from June 8, 2009 to September 27, 2010, (i) the net amount of cash received on advances and interest converted made by Full Spectrum and SAM Special Opportunity Fund, L.P. under their respective notes, (ii) the outstanding principal amount of each note, (iii) the total number of shares of common stock into which the notes are convertible (assuming a conversion rate of $0.40 per share) and (iv) the total number of warrants issued to Full Spectrum and SAM Special Opportunity Fund, L.P.. For each cash advance made under either note, the lender retains the Interest Prepayment, to be applied by the lender to the final quarterly payment of interest due under the note, or as payment of accrued and unpaid interest upon an event of default or prepayment of the note; accordingly, the outstanding principal amount for each note is calculated as the sum of the total amount of cash advances, plus the Interest Prepayments and retained expenses.

	Advances and Interest Converted		Total Principal		Conversion Shares		Warrants
Full Spectrum	$	3,267,829	$	3,421,810		8,554,525		4,277,264

	$	5,973,970	$	6,255,465		15,638,663		7,819,333

On September 27, 2010, Full Spectrum and SAM Special Opportunity Fund, L.P. converted their convertible grid promissory notes, along with all related accrued interest, net of prepaid interest through that date into 15,450,296 shares of our unregistered common stock. The conversion was made in accordance with the original terms and conditions of the underlying contracts, without modification or adjustment. We accounted for the conversion by initially adjusting the embedded derivatives to fair value and adjusting amortization of the original issue discount and prepaid interest to the conversion date. The carrying values associated with the notes (as reflected in the table below) was then aggregated and reclassified to stockholders’ equity.

The carrying value on the date of conversion consisted of the following components:

Convertible notes payable	(1,864,470	)
Embedded derivative liability	(2,979,334	)
Prepaid interest	242,150
Accrued interest	(146,117	)
	(4,747,771	)

Information and significant assumptions embodied in our valuation on the date of conversion (including equivalent amounts across ranges of simulations resulting from the calculations) of the derivative instrument for the issuances are shown in the following table:

	September 27, 2010
Trading market price	$	0.40
Expected life (years)		0.60 - 0.86
Equivalent volatility		158.62	%
Risk adjusted yield		7.79	%
Risk adjusted interest rate		18.00	%

NOTE 8 – DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

Derivative financial instruments represent the embedded conversion features in our Notes that required bifurcation from the host debt agreements. Derivative financial instruments are classified as liabilities and carried at fair value, with changes reflected in the statement of operations. The following table summarizes the components of changes in our derivative financial instruments during 2009 and 2010:

	Amount
Balance at June 8, 2009 (first date of issuance)	$	—

Fair value changes		(1,578,851	)		289,404
Total derivative valuation (gain) loss	$	(1,578,851	)	$	1,604,920

We value our derivative financial instruments using a Monte Carlo Simulation Technique (“MCST”) using Level 3 inputs. The MCST was selected because this technique embodies all of the types of inputs that we expect market participants would consider in determining the fair value of equity linked derivatives embedded in hybrid debt agreements. Those inputs include equity-related inputs, as well as credit risks, interest risks and redemption behaviors. The following table summarizes the significant inputs and equivalent amounts across ranges of simulations resulting from the calculations:

	Year ended December 31,
	2010	2009
Trading market price	$0.19-$0.59	$0.51-$0.91
Expected life (years)	0.85 - 1.25	1.24 - 1.73
Equivalent volatility	88.7% - 145.3%	97.0% - 122.2%
Risk adjusted yield	8.4% - 9.7%	9.7% - 12.0%
Risk adjusted interest rate	15.1%-18.0%	14.4%-18.0%

NOTE 9 – SHORT TERM LOAN PAYABLE

On November 3, 2009 we issued a 10% note payable to an investor for cash in the amount of GBP 70,000 (approximately $113,000) secured by certain assets of Sendio. On May 1, 2010, we issued three year warrants to purchase 75,000 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $0.38 per share to the investor as compensation for extending the due date of the loan. The fair value of the warrant of $19,125 was recognized as interest expense in the accompanying condensed consolidated statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2010. The fair value of the warrant was determined using the following assumptions: market price - $0.38, volatility – 111.0%, risk free interest rate – 1.51%. On June 3, 2010 the due date of the note and accrued interest was extended to August 31, 2010. On September 1, 2010, the due date of the note was further extended to November 30, 2010. On November 18, 2010 we paid the 10% note payable in cash in the amount of GBP 70,000 (approximately $113,000) and all related accrued interest.

NOTE 10 – LOAN PAYABLE

On May 15, 2008 Sendio entered into a three-year note payable for the purchase of a vehicle. The note bears interest at a rate of 24.5% and is payable in 36 equal monthly installments of principal and interest of approximately $575 plus mandatory VAT and insurance. The note is secured by the vehicle.

NOTE 11 – CAPITAL LEASE OBLIGATION

On May 30, 2008 Sendio entered into a five-year lease agreement for the purchase of certain equipment. The capital lease obligation bears interest at a rate of 7.7% and requires payments of principal and interest of approximately $630 plus mandatory VAT and insurance over the 60-month term of the lease. The assets acquired under the capital lease obligation are being depreciated over the five-year term of the lease.

Stock and Stock Options Issued Pursuant to the 2007 Stock Incentive Plan

On October 26, 2007 our Board of Directors approved our 2007 Stock Incentive Plan. A total of 10,000,000 shares of our common stock were authorized for issuance under the plan. The Stock Incentive Plan allows us to grant stock or stock option awards to our employees, directors, officers, consultants, agents, advisors and independent contractors and subsidiaries, for up to an aggregate of 10,000,000 shares of common stock. The Stock Incentive Plan is administered by our Board of Directors and Compensation Committee, who can determine the size and type of award granted, purchase price, vesting schedule and expiration date of any stock or options grant. All grants of shares and the shares underlying options are for restricted common stock and are issued at the closing market price of our common stock on the date of grant.

The aggregate intrinsic value of the stock options fluctuates in relation to the market price of our common stock as reflected on the OTC Bulletin Board.

On July 9, 2010 we issued options to purchase 1,000,000 shares of common stock to R. Gale Sellers, our then Chief Executive Officer and director pursuant to Mr. Sellers’ employment agreement entered into as of that date and effective January 1, 2009. The options vested 50% upon issuance, with the remaining 50% vesting monthly through December 31, 2010.

In addition on July 9, 2010 Mr. Sellers elected to convert his entire 2010 annual salary per the employment agreement of $240,000 into 10 year options to purchase 558,140 shares of common stock. A total of $120,000 of accrued but unpaid salary was converted into 279,070 options, which vested immediately. The remaining 279,070 options vested monthly through December 31, 2010.

Also on July 9, 2010 we issued options to purchase 600,000 shares of common stock to Philip Styles, our current President and Chief Executive Officer and director. The options vest 50% upon issuance, with the remaining 50% vesting upon the achievement of certain performance milestones through December 31, 2010. These performance goals were not met, and the option to purchase 300,000 shares of common stock expired unvested.

The options issued above have a ten-year life and an exercise price of $0.43 per share based on the closing market price as of the date of issuance. The fair value of the options issued to Mr. Sellers and Mr. Styles of $919,724 was determined using the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model.

On October 4, 2010 we granted to Mr. Styles a ten-year option to purchase 1,000,000 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $0.51 per share vesting monthly through October 3, 2011 pursuant to his employment agreement. The grant was made from our 2007 Stock Compensation Plan and pursuant to our standard form of stock option agreement. The fair value of the options issued to Mr. Styles of $497,416 was determined using the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model.

The exercise price for the stock option grant was set at the closing market price of our common stock on the OTC Bulletin Board on October 4, 2010, the date that the Board of Directors approved the Executive Employment Agreement.

On September 25, 2010 we issued 150,000 shares of common stock to a former employee pursuant to the exercise of an option to purchase common stock at an exercise price of $0.23 per share in settlement of unpaid salary in the amount of $34,500.

On November 18, 2010 we issued 300,000 shares of common stock to Duncan Troy, the Chairman of our Board of Directors pursuant to the exercise of an option to purchase common stock at an exercise price of $0.38 per share in exchange for cash in the amount of $114,000.

On December 30, 2009 we issued options to R. Gale Sellers and Richard Herring, both directors and officers in lieu of a total of $97,500 of unpaid compensation. Mr. Sellers converted $70,000 of unpaid compensation into options to purchase 107,692 shares of common stock and Mr. Herring converted $22,500 of unpaid compensation into options to purchase 42,308 shares of common stock. The options have a ten year life and an exercise price of $0.65 per share.

The range of exercise prices for options outstanding and options exercisable under the 2007 Stock Incentive Plan at December 31, 2010 are as follows:

F-23

Range of Exercise Prices	Weighted Average Remaining Contractual Life of Options Outstanding (in years)		Options Outstanding				Options Exercisable
			Number of Shares		Weighted Average Exercise Price		Number of Shares		Weighted Average Exercise Price
$0.23- $0.38		6.7		1,450,000	$	0.33		1,450,000	$	0.33
$0.43 - $0.65		9.3		3,683,140	$	0.50		2,924,236	$	0.50
$1.00		6.9		1,521,875	$	1.00		1,521,875	$	1.00

A summary of the status of our nonvested options as of December 31, 2010 and changes during the year ended December 31, 2010 is presented below.

Nonvested options	Number of Shares Underlying Options			Weighted Average Grant Date Fair Value
Nonvested at December 31, 2009		50,000		$	0.63
Granted		3,158,140			0.46
Forfeited or expired		(300,000	)		0.43
Vested		(2,149,236	)		0.46
Nonvested at December 31, 2010		758,904		$	0.51

We recognized compensation expense of $822,879 and $394,139 related to the vested portion of these options based on their estimated grant date fair value as research and development expense, general and administrative expense or marketing expense based on the specific recipient of the award for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. The estimated fair value of the options on the date of grant was calculated using the Black Scholes option pricing model and the following assumptions.

	Years ended December 31,
	2010	2009
Closing market price of common stock	$0.43 to $0.51	$0.63 to $1.10
Estimated volatility	139.0% to 162.1%	113.6% to 149.1%
Risk free interest rate	2.50% to 3.07%	0.87% to 3.80%
Expected dividend rate	-	-
Expected life	10 years	5-10 years

As of December 31, 2010 there was a total of $377,491 of unrecognized compensation expense related to the nonvested options which is expected to be recognized ratably through October, 2011.

As of December 31, 2010 the 2007 Stock Incentive Plan has 351,366 shares available for future grants of stock or options.

The utilization of U.S. net operating loss carryforwards may be limited due to the ownership change under the provisions of Internal Revenue Code Section 382. The fiscal years 2007 to 2010 remain open to examination to U.S. Federal authorities and other jurisdictions in the U.S. where we operate. Sendio has paid no income taxes since its inception and its fiscal years for 2007 to 2010 remain open to examination by Czech tax authorities.

NOTE 14 - SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

From January 12 to February 4, 2011 we sold 401,500 Units at a subscription price of $1.00 per Unit for net proceeds of $401,500 in our Unit Private Placement. Each Unit consists of two shares of common stock and a two-year warrant to purchase one share of common stock at an exercise price of $1.00 per share. A total of 803,000 shares of common stock and two-year warrants to purchase 401,500 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $1.00 were issued. Included in these amounts are 133,000 shares of our common stock and 66,500 warrants issued upon the conversion of accounts payable by R. Gale Sellers, our former Chief Executive Officer and a former member of our board of directors.

On February 8, 2011, we completed a private placement to eight institutional accredited investors of 4,911,112 shares of our common stock, at a purchase price of $0.45 per share, for gross proceeds of $2,210,000. As part of the private placement, the investors were issued five-year warrants to purchase 4,911,112 shares of our common stock, at an initial exercise price of $0.60 per share.

For each of the warrants, the holder will be able to exercise the warrant on a so-called cashless basis at any time following the one-year anniversary of the closing of the private placement that a registration statement covering the shares of our common stock underlying such warrants is not effective.

The net proceeds from the private placement, following the payment of offering-related expenses, will be used by us for our capital expenditure requirements and for working capital and other general corporate purposes. At the closing of the private placement, we paid Rodman & Renshaw LLC, the placement agent for the private placement, cash compensation of 7% of the gross proceeds of the private placement and a five-year warrant to purchase up to 343,778 shares of our common stock, at an initial exercise price of $0.60 per share.

F-26

We have agreed, pursuant to the terms of a registration rights agreement with the investors, to (i) file a shelf registration statement with respect to the resale of the shares of our common stock sold to the investors and shares of our common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants with the SEC on or before April 10, 2011; (ii) use our best efforts to have the shelf registration statement declared effective by the SEC as soon as possible after the initial filing, and in any event no later than 90 days after the closing date (or 150 days in the event of a review of the shelf registration statement by the SEC), and (iii) keep the shelf registration statement effective until all registrable securities may be sold under Rule 144 under the Securities Act of 1933. If we are unable to comply with any of the above covenants, we will be required to pay liquidated damages to the investors in the amount of 1.5% of the investors’ purchase price per month during such non-compliance (capped at a maximum of 10% of the purchase price), with such liquidated damages payable in cash.

The investors agreed, pursuant to the securities purchase agreement, not to engage in any short sales (as defined in the agreement) until the earlier of the effective date of the shelf registration statement referred to above or the date when the shares of our common stock sold to the investors and shares of our common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants are eligible for sale under Rule 144 under the Securities Act of 1933. We also granted the investors the right to participate in future equity financing transactions within the 12 months following the closing of the private placement and agreed to certain restrictions on our ability to sell our equity securities until 60 days after the effective date of the shelf registration statement.

On March 14, 2011 our Board of Directors increased the number of shares of our common stock were authorized for issuance under the 2007 Stock Incentive Plan from 10,000,000 to 20,000,000 and issued ten-year options to purchase a total of 625,000 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $0.52 per share based on the closing market price as of that date.

On March 17, 2011 we issued 100,000 shares of common stock from the 2007 Stock Compensation Plan with a fair value of $51,000 based on the closing market price as of that date of $0.51 per share pursuant to the settlement of a dispute with a former consultant and employee to the Company.

Item 15. Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities.

From January 12 to February 4, 2011, we sold 401,500 units at a subscription price of $1.00 per unit for net proceeds of $401,500 in our unit private placement. Each unit consists of two shares of common stock and a two-year warrant to purchase one share of common stock at an exercise price of $1.00 per share. A total of 803,000 shares of common stock and two-year warrants to purchase 401,500 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $1.00 were issued.

On March 14, 2011, we issued ten-year options to purchase a total of 625,000 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $0.52 per share based on the closing market price as of that date.

On March 17, 2011, we issued 100,000 shares of common stock from the 2007 Stock Compensation Plan with a fair value of $51,000 based on the closing market price as of that date of $0.51 per share pursuant to the settlement of a dispute with a former consultant and employee to our company.

The shares of our common stock and warrants issued in the February 2011 private placement and in other issuances described above were exempt from registration under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933 as a sale by an issuer not involving a public offering or under Regulation D promulgated pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933. None of the shares of common stock or warrants, or shares of our common stock underlying such warrants, were registered under the Securities Act, or the securities laws of any state, and were offered and sold in reliance on the exemption from registration afforded by Section 4(2) and Regulation D (Rule 506) under the Securities Act and corresponding provisions of state securities laws, which exempts transactions by an issuer not involving any public offering. Such securities may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from the registration requirements and certificates evidencing such shares contain a legend stating the same.

Item 17. Undertakings.

A. The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:

(1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement:

(i) To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933;

(ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than 20 percent change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective registration statement; and

(iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement.

(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

(3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.

(4) Intentionally omitted.

(5) That, for the purpose of determining liability under the Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser:

(i) Intentionally omitted.

II-4

(ii) If the registrant is subject to Rule 430C, each prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) as part of a registration statement relating to an offering, other than registration statements relying on Rule 430B or other than prospectuses filed in reliance on Rule 430A, shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of the date it is first used after effectiveness. Provided, however, that no statement made in a registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement or made in a document incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference into the registration statement or made in a document incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference into the registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement will, as to a purchaser with a time of contract of sale prior to such first use, supersede or modify any statement that was made in the registration statement or prospectus that was part of the registration statement or made in any such document immediately prior to such date of first use.

(6) That, for the purpose of determining liability of the registrant under the Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser in the initial distribution of the securities:

The undersigned registrant undertakes that in a primary offering of securities of the undersigned registrant pursuant to this registration statement, regardless of the underwriting method used to sell the securities to the purchaser, if the securities are offered or sold to such purchaser by means of any of the following communications, the undersigned registrant will be a seller to the purchaser and will be considered to offer or sell such securities to such purchaser:

(i) Any preliminary prospectus or prospectus of the undersigned registrant relating to the offering required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424.

(ii) Any free writing prospectus relating to the offering prepared by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant or used or referred to by the undersigned registrant;

(iii) The portion of any other free writing prospectus relating to the offering containing material information about the undersigned registrant or its securities provided by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant; and

(iv) Any other communication that is an offer in the offering made by the undersigned registrant to the purchaser.

B. Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
