PART I


ITEM 1.

DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS.


(a)

General Business development.


We were originally organized under the laws of the State of Nevada in 1996 as Zacman Enterprises, Inc. and subsequently changed our name to eNutrition, Inc. eNutrition was a direct mail marketing company engaged in the development and marketing of nutritional supplements.  Operation commenced in June 2000 by securing the exclusive rights to market the nutritional supplement, HI-Q.  In September 2001, eNutrition entered into a License Agreement with HI-Q Nutrition, Inc., a Nevada corporation, granting them the exclusive right to engage in the business of marketing and distributing nutritional products under the trade name HI-Q.


On April 30, 2002, we entered into an agreement with HI-Q Nutrition, Inc. for the sale of all of our assets relating to our HI-Q brand of nutritional supplements, including the brand name, trademark, product formulations, customer base and marketing ideas, which comprised all of the assets and business of our company.  The agreement closed and became effective on May 20, 2002, immediately prior to our acquisition of the Torpedo business described below. We received cash consideration of $10,000, plus forgiveness of any uncollected royalties owed to HI-Q Nutrition, Inc.  In addition, HI-Q Nutrition, Inc. assumed all liabilities relating to the HI-Q brand products.  At a special shareholders' meeting held on May 17, 2002, our stockholders approved the sale of all of eNutrition's assets, and the assumption of all liabilities, to HI-Q Nutrition, Inc. Our stockholders also approved a one share for 1.8870314 share reverse stock split and the purchase and retirement of 4,478,430 post-reverse-split shares.


On May 17, 2002, our stockholders also approved our acquisition of all of the issued and outstanding securities of Torpedo Delaware in exchange for 8,000,000 shares of our common stock issued to the Torpedo USA stockholders.  On May 20, 2002 we changed our name to Torpedo Sports USA, Inc.  Torpedo USA, through its wholly-owned subsidiary Torpedo Canada, was a manufacturer and distributor of outdoor recreational products for children, such as, toboggans, baby sleds, snowboards, tricycles, scooters and skateboards. The transaction was recorded as a reverse acquisition based on factors demonstrating that Torpedo USA constituted the accounting acquirer.


In January 2004, Torpedo Canada filed in Canada, a notice of its intention to make a proposal to its creditors for the restructuring of its debts.  The proposal procedure allowed Torpedo Canada to continue to operate its business subject to protection of the secured interests of its lenders and suspended efforts by creditors to collect their debts while Torpedo Canada reviewed and analyzed its financial condition.  On May 6, 2004, Torpedo Canada filed for protection under the Bankruptcy and Insolvency Act of Canada with the intention to liquidate its assets.  Torpedo Canada ceased its operating activities in May 2004.  In June 2007, we executed a Stock Purchase Agreement by and between the Company and CLB Investment Corp. (“CLB”), pursuant to which CLB acquired all of the capital stock of Torpedo Canada in exchange for $10.00. As a result of this transaction, approximately $2.3 million in liabilities of Torpedo were eliminated from the consolidated balance sheet and therefore no longer reflected on our financial statements.

On February 1, 2005, we acquired all of the issued and outstanding common stock of Interactive Games, Inc. (“Interactive”).  Pursuant to terms of the merger agreement, in exchange for all of the issued and outstanding common shares of Interactive we issued 27,037,282 shares of our common stock to the former Interactive shareholders in order for them to own 51% of our outstanding common stock on the closing date of the merger, on a fully diluted basis.  We agreed to issue additional shares if certain agreed upon criteria, to be determined, were met in order to allow the former Interactive security holders to hold 54% of our outstanding common stock (based on the shares outstanding at the time of closing).  As of October 30, 2007, we did not issue any of these additional shares.  In connection with the merger agreement, the former Interactive shareholders agreed to use their best efforts post-closing to cause our company to raise sufficient funds to pay-off or otherwise dispose of up to $250,000 of our liabilities.  As of October 31, 2007, $100,000 has been paid.  Finally, if Torpedo USA did not dispose of all of assets and liabilities within three months following the acquisition closing date, we were required to issue an additional 500,000 shares to the former Interactive shareholders.  The Company has determined that it will issue such shares once Torpedo USA has raised sufficient shares to satisfy up to $250,000 of its liabilities.


In conjunction with the merger agreement, we changed our name to Interactive Games, Inc. and approved an increase in our authorized common stock from 50,000,000 shares to 100,000,000 shares.


The acquisition of Interactive by us was accounted for as a reverse merger because on a post-merger basis, the former Interactive shareholders held a majority of the outstanding common stock of our company on a voting and fully diluted basis.  As a result, Interactive was deemed to be the acquirer for accounting purposes.


In June 2007, our stockholders, through a written consent executed by stockholders holding a majority of the outstanding shares of our common stock entitled to vote, adopted and approved Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation and ratified the Amended and Restated Bylaws of the Company, which were adopted by our board of directors on June 26, 2007.  


The Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation increased the authorized capital stock of the Company from 105,000,000 shares to 500,000,000 shares, of which 25,000,000 shares now may be preferred stock having the voting powers, designations, preferences, limitations, restrictions and relative rights as determined by the board of directors from time to time.  The Company’s stockholders also authorized our chief executive officer to change our name to China Nuvo Solar Energy, Inc. at such time as the chief executive officer deemed appropriate in his sole discretion.  


Generally, the Amended and Restated Bylaws of the Company updated our former bylaws to reflect changes to applicable law.  For example, under the Amended and Restated Bylaws stockholders may now take action by written action signed by stockholders holding a majority of the shares entitled to vote on the given action.


Pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Reorganization dated as of April 23, 2007, as amended on July 25, 2007 (the “Share Exchange Agreement”), by and between the Company and Nuvo Solar Energy, Inc., a Colorado corporation (“Nuvo”), we and Nuvo entered into a share exchange whereby all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Nuvo, on a fully-diluted basis, was exchanged for like securities of the Company, and whereby Nuvo became our wholly owned subsidiary (the “Share Exchange”).  The Share Exchange was effective as of July 25, 2007, upon the completed filing of Articles of Exchange with the Nevada Secretary of State and a Statement of Share Exchange with the Colorado Secretary of State.  Contemporaneously with the Share Exchange, we changed our name to “China Nuvo Solar Energy, Inc.”  


Immediately prior to the effective time of the Share Exchange, Nuvo had outstanding 5,500,000 shares of its common stock (“Nuvo Common Stock”) and no shares of preferred stock.  In accordance with the Share Exchange Agreement, each share of Nuvo Common Stock was acquired by us in exchange for approximately 24.24 shares of our common stock for a total of 133,333,255 shares issued.  Accordingly, after giving effect to the Share Exchange, the Company had approximately 189,915,355 shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately following the transaction.  


As a result of the Share Exchange, the former Nuvo shareholders together held approximately 66.6% of the Company’s outstanding common stock immediately following the transaction, on a fully-diluted basis.  Accordingly, the Share Exchange constituted a change of control of the Company.  As a result of the Share Exchange, Nuvo constituted the accounting acquirer in the Share Exchange; however, we elected to have a July 31 fiscal year end, which is the same fiscal year end that Interactive Games, Inc. had prior to the Share Exchange.  


On June 9, 2006, Nuvo signed a license agreement with Photovoltaics.com, Inc. (“PV”), which is based in Hutchinson Island, Florida. Nuvo acquired exclusive worldwide rights to PV's solar cell technology relating to a multiple stacked solar cell using wave guide transfers. This license agreement includes all patents issued pursuant to certain patents applications or amendments that have been filed and the rights to use all applicable copyrights, trademarks and related intellectual property obtained on or in connection with the process and products. As consideration for this license, Nuvo agreed to pay a total aggregate license fee of $250,000, of which $150,000 was paid on June 9, 2006 and $100,000 was paid on August 11, 2006.  The term of the license was for 10 years and automatically renewable for successive ten-year terms under the same terms and conditions as provided for in the license agreement.

On January 23, 2008, we purchased from PV the patents related to our solar technology in exchange for 2,000,000 restricted shares of our common stock.  We now own all rights, title and interest in the patents, including all issued patents or other intellectual property arising from the patents worldwide.  


On November 27, 2007, we executed a Collaboration and Development Agreement (the “Collaboration Agreement”) with Pioneer Materials, Inc. (“PMI”) of Torrance, California.  PMI is a manufacturer and supplier of materials for the semiconductor, hard drive media, optical media and photonic industries.  PMI is developing for the solar energy industry advanced materials for thin film photovoltaics (solar cell) processing.  Under the terms of the Agreement, PMI was to help us build, equip, operate and manage, for our benefit, a product development, testing and prototype manufacturing facility in PMI’s Chengdu, Sichuan, China facility located in Chengdu’s West High Tech development zone.  The agreement with PMI had the objective to develop, test and manufacture prototypes of solar energy products using our licensed technology based on an invention titled “Photovoltaic cell with integral light transmitting waveguide in a ceramic sleeve”.  Additionally, PMI was to provide technical, engineering development, testing and manufacturing employees and support staff.  The term of the Agreement was for one year, with automatic six-month renewal periods unless terminated by the parties.  Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, the Company was to pay PMI $2,500 per month and PMI was eligible to receive up to 4,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock upon the satisfactory completion of certain milestone accomplishments in the Agreement, of which 500,000 shares of common stock were issued upon the execution of the Agreement.  In May of 2008, the Chengdu region of China experienced a catastrophic earthquake.  As a result of this earthquake and the after effects including significant problems with the delivery of electricity, PMI suspended their development work for a significant period of time and has not performed under the agreement.  


On December 10, 2008 we executed a Patent and Trademark Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with Photovoltaics, Inc..  Through this agreement we acquired certain patent rights and trademarks in exchange for $39,900 paid in installments from December 2008 through July 2009.

Financial information about segments.


Through July 31, 2009, we operated in only one industry segment.


(c)

Narrative description of business.


We are a development-stage company that is working to develop and design, with a view toward manufacturing, solar photovoltaic (PV) cell technology products. We own certain patent applications and patent rights and other photovoltaic intellectual property.  Our primary technology involves a unique patent pending solar cell technology based on photovoltaic cells with integral light-transmitting wave guides in a ceramic sleeve.  The advantage of this technology is that less exposed surface area is required to generate electricity. The light-transmitting particles act as wave guides and allow the sun-exposed conversion area of the solar cell to be shifted readily from horizontal to vertical to capture more sunlight. The ceramic sleeve eliminates the need for expensive vacuum chambers, thereby allowing less expensive materials to be used in solar cell production.  


We are working to develop, with plans to eventually manufacture and market in conjunction with strategic partners, innovative solar cells and solar power products for a wide range of applications based on our technology that increases light-trapping while enabling a variety of materials to be used.  Our primary technology employs multiple stacked solar cells in a ceramic sleeve that uses nano-particles and crystal wave guides to carry light from the opening down to the last junction in the solar cell.  Competitors’ processes that use vacuum chambers (instead of a ceramic sleeve) generally don’t allow for material substitution because of contamination issues. We believe our primary technology also will allow manufacturers to quickly and economically shift to new materials if a shortage of any one type of material occurs. We believe our technology will offer a flexible, cost-effective solution for increased light-trapping and therefore increased efficiency.


Our business plan is focused on developing cost-effective, highly-efficient, environmentally-friendly solar energy products.  We plan to enter into strategic partnerships with companies that can help advance our technology and may also acquire technologies and businesses that will help us implement our business strategy in certain circumstances.  In order to do so, we must develop working prototypes that can be readily adapted to larger scale production and manufacturing.


In an attempt to minimize the start-up costs of solar cell manufacturing, we signed an agreement with PMI to establish a pilot production line by building out and modifying PMI’s existing manufacturing facility located in the Chengdu West High Tech Development Zone in Chengdu, Sichuan, China.  Following a serious earthquake in the Chengdu, China region, Pioneer ceased performing under the contract.  While continuing discussions with PMI as part of the Collaboration Agreement, we are also seeking other partners to assist us with the development of our technology with a view toward commercialization.

Currently, the Company has begun searching for a U.S.-based technology advisor or chief technology officer to assist the Company with the development of its photovoltaic intellectual property.  The Company believes that if the technology can be proven effective utilizing a production ready prototype, it will be able to attract a strategic partner to assist in the development of production and manufacturing activities.  


We have identified the solar energy category as extremely promising because of its worldwide commercialization efforts to date. Solar power is a distributed energy technology that uses solar cells to convert the sun's energy to electricity. The major advantage of solar is its abundance for all purposes.  Today, the cost of solar power substantially exceeds the cost of power furnished by the electric utility grid. As a result, federal, state and local governmental bodies in many countries, most notably the United States, Japan and Germany, have provided subsidies in the form of cost reductions, tax write-offs and other incentives to end users, distributors, systems integrators and manufacturers of solar power products to promote the use of solar energy in on-grid applications and to reduce dependency on other forms of energy. Nuvo intends to locate and utilize such incentives in the development of its technology, if and when available.  


Our Technology


The science used in our primary solar cell technology is based on an invention entitled, “Photovoltaic cell with integral light transmitting waveguide in a ceramic sleeve”, and utilizes Cadmium/Tellurium Cadmium/Sulfide powders layered in a ceramic sleeve with a copper back contact.  The solar cell can utilize a variety of materials in powdered form layered in a ceramic sleeve with a conductive metal back contact.  The ceramic sleeve eliminates the need for vacuum chambers or a vat with a molten material.  A removable lens is clamped on to the cell.  By having a removable lens, we are able to repair or add materials to the cell if necessary unlike existing technology.  The cell utilizes a wave guide to carry light through the cell.  In addition, the wave guide can photo generate an electrical potential in the cell.  The material and amount of layers determines voltage while amperage is dependent in part upon particle size.  In essence, a multiple stacked solar cell using a wave guide transfers the square conversion area of the solar cell exposed to the sun from the horizontal to the vertical.


Our patent pending technology incorporates a process that is conducive to manufacturing using a batch process.  This is possible because the solar cell cylinder itself replaces the necessity to use expensive vacuum chambers during production.  We believe this approach is the most expeditious and cost-effective alternative to development of manufacturing capability.  


Our technology uses a ceramic sleeve as a receptacle for the various materials used for a solar cell.  The ceramic sleeve replaces typical equipment such as expensive vacuum chambers thereby permitting the interchangeability of materials.  Production processes using a vacuum chamber in many cases cannot interchange materials because of contamination issues. We believe that by utilizing the technology, if a shortage of one type of material occurs, a shift can be made quickly and economically to a more cost effective but complementary material.  The materials that can be used in these cells goes from soft materials like Cadmium/Tellurium to hard materials like Silicon.


A recently published independent report by the Joannopoulos Research Group at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (“MIT”) determined that light trapping by wave guides they put into photovoltaic cells was increased by 37%.  This was accomplished by placing clear crystal particles as waveguides within the solar cell’s layered or stacked semiconductor materials.  We believe our technology offers a number of significant advantages in light trapping efficiencies and certain production economies compared to current technologies.  We believe our technology can increase light trapping even further than the MIT method by inter-dispersing these clear crystal particles in a random manner.  In addition, these wave guides allow even more layers of photovoltaic materials to be put down.   The wave guides bring the light down even further than the few microns it can now travel in most materials.  We believe these ceramic sleeve solar cells with wave guides lend themselves to ideal cells for use in a concentrator system and other specialty applications.


How it works


Our photovoltaic cells consist of:


·

An initial semiconductor layer, comprised of N type semiconductor1 material having a top surface and a bottom surface. Light-transmitting particles are interspersed within the N type semiconductor material; and

·

A second semiconductor layer, consisting of P type semiconductor material having a top surface and a bottom surface. Light-transmitting particles are interspersed within the P type semiconductor material. The top surface of the second layer is in direct physical and electrical contact with the bottom surface of the first layer to form an N-P junction2.

The generation of electrical current from the lower N-P junctions of a stacked multi-layer photovoltaic cell results from the transmission of light through each semiconductor layer to the lower semiconductor layers. As a result, photovoltaic cells are produced which exhibit greater current-generating capacity for a given surface area of sunlight exposure.


The technology utilizes light-transmitting materials reduced to a powder form, typically through grinding the material to a size of 5 micrometers to 150 micrometers, followed by a further reduction in the particle size to 400 to 800 nanometers.


A wave guide carries light through the cell. This is achieved by exciting metallic structures that cause the conduction electrons to oscillate. Conduction electrons improve the absorption and emission of light from thin planar semiconductor layers by coupling the light with the wave guide modes of the semiconductor layer. Enhancing absorption through the use of conduction electrons also avoids the increase in surface recombination that occurs with conventional light-trapping methods.


The wave guide mode concentrates electrical potential in the cell. The material and amount of layers determines voltage while amperage is determined by particle size. The multiple stacked solar cell and wave guide mode enables sunlight- exposed conversion areas to be maximized by shifting the orientation from horizontal to vertical.


In addition, the technology enables PV cells to be packaged in any desired physical shape and with a reduced overall surface area such as cubes or elongated tubular structures designed to fit within specific size and shape constraints. This design flexibility greatly reduces the difficulty and costs of shipping, storing, deploying, and securing large solar module arrays.


During the fiscal year 2009, we acquired additional patents and provisional patents that we believe may further increase the efficiency and lower the cost of our primary wave guide photovoltaic technology as well as currently available technology.  


Industry Information


Energy demand


Electricity consumption is strongly influenced by economic and population growth in the world’s developing economies. Demand for electrical power is projected to increase significantly over the next several decades. Demand increases may be most dramatic in developing countries where some two billion people still lack access to electricity, and addressing that issue is a high public priority.


With the world population growing at a rate currently estimated at 1.8% annually from an estimated 6.7 billion currently to 8.9 billion by 2050, energy demand will also increase substantially. Population growth and rising standards of living in developing countries should drive an increase in energy demand over the next few decades.  The US Department of Energy predicts world energy consumption will grow roughly 70% by 2030.


The US Energy Information Administration is predicting that US solar thermal and solar photovoltaic installed net summer generating capacity will increase to nearly 400 megawatts by the year 2030.


Solar energy industry trends


Solar energy offers a clean, safe alternative to energy produced from coal, oil or natural gas. Electricity is produced at low variable costs and solar energy plants don’t emit carbon dioxide. Despite these advantages, solar energy currently accounts for only a small fraction of the world's energy usage. Solar photovoltaic installations worldwide reached a record high of 3,800 megawatts in 2007.  According to published reports, in 2007 grid-connected photovoltaic electricity was the fastest growing energy source, with installations of all photovoltaics increasing by 83% in 2009 to bring the total installed capacity to 15 GW.  


With government support in more than 40 markets, end-user demand for solar power significantly exceeds production capacity.  Germany, Japan and the US are the largest photovoltaic markets.  Solar cell production increased by 50% in 2007, to 3,800 megawatts, and has been doubling every two years. Nearly half of the increase was in Germany, now the world's largest consumer of photovoltaic electricity (followed by Japan).

Silicon Supplies


Silicon is the basic material used in the production of solar cells based on crystalline technology, which account for a vast majority of the world market. During the mid 2000's silicon usage increased from 14,000 tons in 2004 to 19,000 tons in 2006 and silicon prices rose with demand.  While prices have fallen and silicon supplies have increased, future silicon shortages and rising prices would compress the margins of solar cell manufacturers who rely on poly-silicon semiconductor materials, despite strong demand for solar photovoltaics. Because CNUV’s solar cell technology can use a variety of materials, the Company would not be impacted by potential silicon shortages and might actually benefit from market share gains made at the expense of higher- cost solar cell manufacturers if it were to reach production.


High oil prices


Rising oil prices make solar energy an increasingly attractive and affordable power alternative. After surging nearly 58% in 2007 (the biggest annual gain in a decade), crude oil prices reached a high of over $140 per barrel in 2008.  While prices have since fallen to below $50 at times during 2009, prices have increased to more than $80 in the fourth quarter of 2009.   


Competition


Companies pursuing similar technologies including different but related fields represent substantial competition. Many of these organizations are some of the largest companies in the world and have substantially greater capital resources, research and development staffs and facilities, as well as greater manufacturing and marketing capabilities than we do.   These organizations also compete with Nuvo to attract qualified personnel, parties for acquisitions, joint ventures or other collaborations.  As a result, there is no assurance that our technology will prove viable or that it will be able to compete with these larger organizations to produce any product or service.  


Government Regulation


The market for electricity generation products is heavily influenced by foreign, federal, state and local government regulations and policies concerning the electric utility industry, as well as internal policies and regulations promulgated by electric utilities. These regulations and policies often relate to electricity pricing and technical interconnection of customer-owned electricity generation. In the United States and in a number of other countries, these regulations and policies are being modified and may continue to be modified. We will also be required to comply with all foreign, federal, state and local regulations regarding protection of the environment.


Compliance with Environmental Laws


We are required to comply with all foreign, federal, state and local regulations regarding protection of the environment. If more stringent regulations are adopted in the future, the costs of compliance with these new regulations could be substantial. We may need to procure certain governmental and other permits to conduct our business. If we fail to comply with present or future environmental regulations, however, we may be required to pay substantial fines, suspend future production or cease operations. The manufacture of our potential products may use, generate and discharge toxic, volatile and otherwise hazardous chemicals and wastes. Any failure by us to control the use of, or to restrict adequately the discharge of, hazardous substances could subject us to potentially significant monetary damages and fines or suspensions in our business operations. In addition, under some foreign, federal and state statutes and regulations, a governmental agency may seek recovery and response costs from operators of property where releases of hazardous substances have occurred or are ongoing, even if the operator was not responsible for such release or otherwise at fault.


Employees


The Company currently does not have any full or part-time employees other than its officers.  


ITEM 1A.

RISK FACTORS


In General.  The purchase of shares of our common stock is very speculative and involves a very high degree of risk.  An investment in us is suitable only for the persons who can afford the loss of their entire investment.  Accordingly, investors should carefully consider the following risk factors, as well as other information set forth herein, in making an investment decision with respect to securities of the Company.



7




The market price of our common stock may fluctuate significantly.


The market price of our common shares may fluctuate significantly in response to factors, some of which are beyond our control, such as:


·

the announcement of new products or product enhancements by us or our competitors;

·

developments concerning intellectual property rights and regulatory approvals;

·

quarterly variations in our and our competitors’ product development activities or results of operations;

·

changes in earnings estimates or recommendations by securities analysts;

·

developments in our industry; and

·

general market conditions and other factors, including factors unrelated to our own operating performance.


Further, the stock market in general has recently experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations.  Continued market fluctuations could result in extreme volatility in the price of our common shares, which could cause a decline in the value of our common shares.  You should also be aware that price volatility might be worse if the trading volume of our common shares is low.


Because we gained access to the public markets through a share exchange, we may not be able to attract the attention of major brokerage firms.


Additional risks may exist since we gained access to the public markets through a share exchange.  Security analysts of major brokerage firms may not cover us since there is no incentive to brokerage firms to recommend the purchase of our common stock.  No assurance can be given that brokerage firms will want to conduct any secondary offerings on our behalf in the future.


Trading of our common stock is limited.


Trading of our common stock is conducted on the National Association of Securities Dealers’ Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board, or “OTC Bulletin Board.” This has adversely effected the liquidity of our securities, not only in terms of the number of securities that can be bought and sold at a given price, but also through delays in the timing of transactions and reduction in security analysts' and the media's coverage of us. This may result in lower prices for our common stock than might otherwise be obtained and could also result in a larger spread between the bid and asked prices for our common stock.


Because it is a “penny stock,” it will be more difficult for you to sell shares of our common stock.


Our common stock is a “penny stock.” Broker-dealers who sell penny stocks must provide purchasers of these stocks with a standardized risk-disclosure document prepared by the SEC. This document provides information about penny stocks and the nature and level of risks involved in investing in the penny-stock market. A broker must also give a purchaser, orally or in writing, bid and offer quotations and information regarding broker and salesperson compensation, make a written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser, and obtain the purchaser’s written agreement to the purchase. The penny stock rules may make it difficult for you to sell your shares of our stock. Because of the rules, there is less trading in penny stocks. Also, many brokers choose not to participate in penny-stock transactions.  Accordingly, you may not always be able to resell shares of our common stock publicly at times and prices that you feel are appropriate.  


Risks Related to Our Business


We currently have no product revenues and will need to raise additional capital to operate our business.


To date, we have generated minimal product revenues.  Until we are able to prove that our proprietary solar technology will work on a large commercial scale and can set up adequate manufacturing facilities ourselves or find a strategic partner to do so for us, we will not have product revenues. Therefore, for the foreseeable future, we will have to fund all of our operations and capital expenditures from additional financing, which may not be available on favorable terms, if at all.  If we are unable to raise additional funds on acceptable terms, or at all, we may be unable to complete the development of our solar technology and set up adequate manufacturing facilities to produce a commercially viable product.  In addition, we could be forced to discontinue product development at any time.  Any additional sources of financing will likely involve the sale of our equity securities or issuance of debt instruments that may be convertible into our common stock, which could have a substantial dilutive effect on our stockholders.

We are not currently profitable and may never become profitable.


We have a history of losses and expect to incur substantial losses and negative operating cash flow for the foreseeable future, and we may never achieve or maintain profitability. Even if we succeed in developing and commercializing one or more products, we expect to incur substantial losses for the foreseeable future and may never become profitable.  We also expect to continue to incur significant operating and capital expenditures and anticipate that our expenses will increase substantially in the foreseeable future as we continue to undertake research and development of potential alternative energy sources.


We also expect to experience negative cash flow for the foreseeable future as we fund our operating losses and capital expenditures. As a result, we will need to generate significant revenues in order to achieve and maintain profitability. We may not be able to generate these revenues or achieve profitability in the future. Our failure to achieve or maintain profitability could negatively impact the value of our stock.


We have a lack of operating history in which to base an investment decision.


We are a relatively new company that has a very limited operating history.  Our acquisition of solar cell technology provides us with an opportunity for new business development, which carries continued unique risks inherent with any new business opportunity.  As a relatively new company, Nuvo is subject to unforeseen costs, expenses, problems and difficulties inherent in new business ventures.


Our operations to date have been limited to organizing the company, acquiring and securing the proprietary technology, and limited product development. These operations provide a limited basis for you to assess our ability to commercialize any product and the advisability of investing in our securities.


No assurance of success or profitability.


We have no current business operations and expect to incur significant losses and negative operating cash flow for the foreseeable future, and we may never achieve or maintain profitability. Even if we succeed in developing and commercializing one or more products, we expect to incur losses for the foreseeable future and may never become profitable.  


We currently have outstanding debt that is convertible into shares of our common stock at prices that may be significantly below the market price at any given time and therefore significant dilution could occur to our current stockholders.


At July 31, 2009, we had a total of $624,000 in debt that is convertible into shares of our common stock at a discount of up to 25% of the market price for our common stock at any given time.  The conversion of any or all of this debt could result in significant dilution to our stockholders at the time such debt is converted.


We currently have stock options and common stock purchase warrants outstanding that may be exercisable at prices below the market price for our common stock at any given time that could result in significant dilution to our stockholders.


At July 31, 2009, we had a total of 11,537,107 stock options and common stock purchase warrants outstanding exercisable at a weighted average exercise price of $0.09 at that date.  The conversion of any or all of these options and warrants could occur at prices below the market price of our common stock at a given time and could cause substantial dilution to our stockholders.  In addition, as we seek to raise additional capital to fund our future business operations, we could issue additional stock options and warrants at prices below market that cause additional dilution to our stockholders.


We may fail to successfully bring to market products based on our technology, which may prevent us from achieving product sales and market share.


We expect to derive a substantial portion of our revenues from sales of new solar power products that are under development and not yet commercially available. If we fail to successfully develop our new solar power products or technologies, we will likely be unable to recover the losses we may incur to develop these products and technologies and may be unable to establish our sales and market share and become profitable. Many of our proposed product and manufacturing technologies are novel and represent a departure from conventional solar power technologies, and it is difficult to predict whether we will be successful in completing their development.

Evaluating our business and future prospects may be difficult due to the rapidly changing market landscape.


The market we are attempting to enter is rapidly evolving and is experiencing technological advances and new market entrants. Our future success will require us to commercialize our technology and we have limited experience upon which to predict whether it will be successful. As a result, you should consider our business and prospects in light of the risks, expenses and challenges that we will face as an early-stage company seeking to develop and manufacture new products in a growing and rapidly evolving market.


Any future solar power products may not gain market acceptance, which would prevent us from achieving increased sales and market share.


The development of a successful market for solar power products may be adversely affected by a number of factors, many of which are beyond our control, including:


·

our failure to produce solar power products that compete favorably against other solar power products on the basis of cost, quality and performance;

·

whether or not customers will accept our new technology and any products based on that technology; and

·

our failure to develop and maintain successful relationships with distributors, systems integrators and other resellers, as well as strategic partners.


If our proposed solar power products fail to gain market acceptance, we would be unable to establish sales and market share and to achieve and sustain profitability.


Technological changes in the solar power industry could render any future solar power products uncompetitive or obsolete, which could reduce our market share and cause our sales to decline.


Our failure to develop our technology and introduce new solar power products could cause our technology to become uncompetitive or obsolete, which could reduce our ability to sell products or gain market share and cause potential sales to decline. The solar power industry is rapidly evolving and competitive. We will need to invest significant financial resources in future research and development to keep pace with technological advances in the solar power industry and to effectively compete in the future. Our development efforts may be rendered obsolete by the technological advances of others and other technologies may prove more advantageous for the commercialization of solar power products.


Our success in the future may depend on our ability to establish and maintain strategic alliances, and any failure on our part to establish and maintain such relationships would adversely affect our market penetration and revenue growth.


We may be required to establish strategic relationships with third parties in the solar power industry, including in international markets.  Our ability to establish strategic relationships will depend on a number of factors, many of which are outside our control, such as the competitive position of our technology and our products relative to our competitors. We can provide no assurance that we will be able to establish other strategic relationships in the future.


In addition, any strategic alliances that we establish, will subject us to a number of risks, including risks associated with sharing proprietary information, loss of control of operations that are material to developed business and profit-sharing arrangements. Moreover, strategic alliances may be expensive to implement and subject us to the risk that the third party will not perform its obligations under the relationship, which may subject us to losses over which we have no control or expensive termination arrangements. As a result, even if our strategic alliances with third parties are successful, our business may be adversely affected by a number of factors that are outside of our control.


Our management team may not be able to successfully implement our business strategies.


Our management team has limited experience in the alternative energy sector.  If our management team is unable to execute on its business strategies, then our product development, the establishment of manufacturing operations and distribution network and our sales and marketing activities would be materially and adversely affected. In addition, we may encounter difficulties in effectively managing the budgeting, forecasting and other process control issues presented by any future growth. We may seek to augment or replace members of our management team or we may lose key members of our management team, and we may not be able to attract new management talent with sufficient skill and experience.



10




We will compete with organizations of all sizes from multinational manufacturing and energy companies to similar sized startup companies as well as research and educational institutions.   Developments by competitors may render our technologies or potential products obsolete or non-competitive.


Companies pursuing similar technologies including different but related fields represent substantial competition. Many of these organizations are some of the largest companies in the world and have substantially greater capital resources, research and development staffs and facilities, as well as greater manufacturing and marketing capabilities than we do.   These organizations also compete with us to attract qualified personnel, parties for acquisitions, joint ventures or other collaborations.  As a result, there is no assurance that our technology will prove viable or that we will be able to compete with these larger organizations to produce any product or service.  


Existing regulations and changes to such regulations may present technical, regulatory and economic barriers to the purchase and use of solar power products, which may significantly reduce demand for our products.


The market for electricity generation products is heavily influenced by foreign, federal, state and local government regulations and policies concerning the electric utility industry, as well as internal policies and regulations promulgated by electric utilities. These regulations and policies often relate to electricity pricing and technical interconnection of customer-owned electricity generation. In the United States and in a number of other countries, these regulations and policies are being modified and may continue to be modified. Customer purchases of, or further investment in the research and development of, alternative energy sources, including solar power technology, could be deterred by these regulations and policies, which could result in a significant reduction in the potential demand for our solar power products. For example, utility companies commonly charge fees to larger, industrial customers for disconnecting from the electric grid or for having the capacity to use power from the electric grid for back-up purposes. These fees could increase the cost to our customers of using our solar power products and make them less desirable, thereby harming our business, prospects, results of operations and financial condition. We anticipate that our solar power products and their installation will be subject to oversight and regulation in accordance with national and local ordinances relating to building codes, safety, environmental protection, utility interconnection and metering and related matters. There is also a burden in having to track the requirements of individual states and design equipment to comply with the varying standards. Any new government regulations or utility policies pertaining to our solar power products may result in significant additional expenses to us and our resellers and their customers and, as a result, could cause a significant reduction in demand for our solar power products.


Compliance with environmental regulations can be expensive, and noncompliance with these regulations may result in adverse publicity and potentially significant monetary damages and fines.


We are required to comply with all foreign, federal, state and local regulations regarding protection of the environment. If more stringent regulations are adopted in the future, the costs of compliance with these new regulations could be substantial. We may need to procure certain governmental and other permits to conduct our business. If we fail to comply with present or future environmental regulations, however, we may be required to pay substantial fines, suspend future production or cease operations. The manufacture of our potential products may use, generate and discharge toxic, volatile and otherwise hazardous chemicals and wastes. Any failure by us to control the use of, or to restrict adequately the discharge of, hazardous substances could subject us to potentially significant monetary damages and fines or suspensions in our business operations. In addition, under some foreign, federal and state statutes and regulations, a governmental agency may seek recovery and response costs from operators of property where releases of hazardous substances have occurred or are ongoing, even if the operator was not responsible for such release or otherwise at fault.


Product liability claims against us could result in adverse publicity and potentially significant monetary damages.


Like other retailers, distributors and manufacturers of products that are used by consumers, we may face an inherent risk of exposure to product liability claims in the event that the use of the solar power products we intend to sell results in injury. Since our intended products are electricity producing devices, it is possible that consumers could be injured or killed by potential products, whether by product malfunctions, defects, improper installation or other causes. In addition, we cannot predict whether product liability claims will be brought against us in the future or the effect of any resulting adverse publicity on our business. Moreover, we may not have adequate resources in the event of a successful claim against us. We will need to evaluate the potential risks we face and procure appropriate levels of insurance for product liability claims.  There is no assurance we will be able to afford such coverage to adequately protect the Company and its stockholders.  The successful assertion of any future product liability claims against us could result in potentially significant monetary damages and if any insurance protection is inadequate to cover these claims, they could require us to make significant payments.



11




If we fail to adequately protect or enforce our intellectual property rights or secure rights to patents of others, the value of our intellectual property rights would diminish.


Our success, competitive position and future revenues will depend in part on our ability, and the abilities of any licensors we may engage, to obtain and maintain patent protection for our products, methods, processes and other technologies, to preserve our trade secrets, to prevent third parties from infringing on our proprietary rights and to operate without infringing the proprietary rights of third parties.  


We cannot predict:


·

the degree and range of protection any patents will afford us against competitors, including whether third parties will find ways to invalidate or otherwise circumvent our licensed patents;

·

if and when patents will issue;

·

whether or not others will obtain patents claiming aspects similar to those covered by our licensed patents and patent applications; or

·

whether we will need to initiate litigation or administrative proceedings which may be costly whether we win or lose.


Our success also depends upon the skills, knowledge and experience of our scientific and technical personnel, our consultants and advisors as well as any licensors and contractors.  To help protect our proprietary know-how and our inventions for which patents may be unobtainable or difficult to obtain, we will rely on trade secret protection and confidentiality agreements.  To this end and to the extent possible, we intend to require all of our employees and consultants to enter into agreements which prohibit the disclosure of confidential information and, where applicable, require disclosure and assignment to us of the ideas, developments, discoveries and inventions important to our business. These agreements may not provide adequate protection for our trade secrets, know-how or other proprietary information in the event of any unauthorized use or disclosure or the lawful development by others of such information.  If any of our trade secrets, know-how or other proprietary information is disclosed, the value of our trade secrets, know-how and other proprietary rights would be significantly impaired and our business and competitive position would suffer.


If we infringe the rights of third parties we could be prevented from selling products, forced to pay damages, and defend against litigation.


If our products, methods, processes and other technologies infringe the proprietary rights of other parties, we could incur substantial costs and we may have to:


·

obtain licenses, which may not be available on commercially reasonable terms, if at all;

·

redesign our products or processes to avoid infringement;

·

stop using the subject matter claimed in the patents held by others, which could cause us to lose the use of one or more of our product candidates;

·

pay damages; or

·

defend litigation or administrative proceedings which may be costly whether we win or lose, and which could result in a substantial diversion of our valuable management resources.  


We rely on key executive officers and scientific advisors, and their knowledge of our business and technical expertise would be difficult to replace.


We currently do not have a key scientific advisor or chief technical officer with knowledge of our technology.  As such, we have been unable to significantly advance the development of our intellectual property during the past fiscal year.  We also do not have “key person” life insurance policies for any of our officers.  The loss of the technical knowledge and management and industry expertise of any of our current or future key personnel could result in delays in product development, loss of customers and sales and diversion of management resources, which could adversely affect our operating results.


If we are unable to hire additional qualified personnel, our ability to grow our business may be harmed.


We will need to hire additional qualified personnel with expertise in solar cell technology, government regulation, development and manufacturing, and sales and marketing. We may face significant competition for qualified individuals, and we cannot be certain that our search for such personnel will be successful. Attracting and retaining qualified personnel will be critical to our success.

Risks Related to Doing Business in China


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


We have intentions to conduct certain business operations in China and a portion of our potential sales could be made in China in the future. Accordingly, our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects are affected significantly by economic, political and legal developments in China. The Chinese economy differs from the economies of most developed countries in many respects, including:


·

the amount of government involvement;

·

the level of development;

·

the growth rate;

·

the control of foreign exchange; and

·

the allocation of resources.


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


The Chinese economy has been transitioning from a planned economy to a more market-oriented economy. Although in recent years the PRC government has implemented measures emphasizing the utilization of market forces for economic reform, the reduction of state ownership of productive assets and the establishment of sound corporate governance in business enterprises, a substantial portion of the productive assets in China is still owned by the PRC government. The continued control of these assets and other aspects of the national economy by the PRC government could materially and adversely affect our business. The PRC government also exercises significant control over Chinese economic growth through the allocation of resources, controlling payment of foreign currency-denominated obligations, setting monetary policy and providing preferential treatment to particular industries or companies. Efforts by the PRC government to slow the pace of growth of the Chinese economy could result in decreased capital expenditure by solar energy users, which in turn could reduce demand for our anticipated products.


Any adverse change in the economic conditions or government policies in China could have a material adverse effect on the overall economic growth and the level of renewable energy investments and expenditures in China, which in turn could lead to a reduction in demand for our anticipated products and consequently have a material adverse effect on our businesses.


Uncertainties with respect to the Chinese legal system could have a material adverse effect on us.


We could conduct a substantial portion of our business through an agreement with third parties that conducts a majority of their business in China. These arrangements may be subject to laws and regulations applicable to foreign investment in China and, in particular, laws applicable to foreign-owned enterprises. The PRC legal system is based on written statutes. Prior court decisions may be cited for reference but have limited precedential value. Since 1979, PRC legislation and regulations have significantly enhanced the protections afforded to various forms of foreign investments in China. However, since these laws and regulations are relatively new and the PRC legal system continues to rapidly evolve, the interpretations of many laws, regulations and rules are not always uniform and enforcement of these laws, regulations and rules involve uncertainties, which may limit legal protections available to us. In addition, any litigation in China may be protracted and result in substantial costs and diversion of resources and management attention.


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


Foreign exchange transactions by companies under China’s capital account continue to be subject to significant foreign exchange controls and require the approval of PRC governmental authorities.

ITEM 7.

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


General:


The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the years ended July 31, 2009 and 2008.


The independent auditors’ report on our financial statements for the years ended July 31, 2009 and 2008 includes a “going concern” explanatory paragraph that describes substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.  Management’s plans in regard to the factors prompting the explanatory paragraph are discussed below and also in Note 1 to the audited consolidated financial statements.


While our independent auditor has presented our financial statements on the basis that we are a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business over a reasonable length of time, they have raised a substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.


(a)

Liquidity and Capital Resources.


For the year ended July 31, 2009, net cash used in operating activities was $133,082 compared to $553,302 for the year ended July 31, 2008.  Net loss was $787,050 for the year ended July 31, 2009 compared to $1,310,229 for the year ended July 31, 2008. The net loss in the current period includes net non-cash expenses of $388,352, of which $157,708 are costs associated with the issuance of common stock and warrants and $304,950 of depreciation and amortization.  These non cash expenses were offset by a change in the minority interest of $74,402.  The net loss in the year ago period includes net non-cash expenses of $555,731 of which $572,010 are costs associated with the issuance of common stock and warrants and $323,424 of depreciation and amortization expense.  These expenses were offset by a decrease of $278,417 in the derivative liabilities of the Company related to the unsecured convertible debentures, and $61,286 for minority interest.


Net cash used in investing activities for the years ended July 31, 2009 and 2008 was $39,900 and $3,501 respectively. The 2009 amount was a result of payments made to acquire intellectual property rights.  


Net cash provided by financing activities for the year ended July 31, 200 was $172,344 compared to $524,721 for the year ended July 31, 2008. For the year ended July 31, 2009, the Company received net proceeds of $157,405, offset by the repayment of $4,409 of notes payable.  Additionally the Company received payments of $19,858 from collections on notes and interest receivables.  For the year ended July 31, 2008, the Company received net proceeds of $718,285 on the issuance of notes payable and convertible debentures and $50,000 from the sale of subsidiary common stock.  The Company also repaid $144,605 of notes payable, $76,650 paid for placement fees related to convertible debentures and $23,300 paid in exchange for a note receivable from a related party.  


For the year ended July 31, 2009, cash and cash equivalents increase by $638 compared to a decrease of $32,082 for the year ended July 31, 2008.  Ending cash and cash equivalents at July 31, 2009 was $304 compared to $942 at July 31, 2008.


We have limited cash and cash equivalents on hand and need to raise funds to continue to be able to support our operating expenses and to meet our other obligations as they become due.  Sources available to us that we may utilize include the sale of unsecured convertible debentures, as well as the exercise of outstanding options and warrants, all of which may cause dilution to our stockholders.

Market risk is the potential loss arising from adverse changes in market rates and prices, such as interest rates and a decline in the stock market. We do not enter into derivatives or other financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes. We have limited exposure to market risks related to changes in interest rates.

ITEM 9A(T).

CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.


Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures


A review and evaluation was performed by the Company's management, including the Company's Chief Executive Officer (the "CEO") and Chief Financial Officer (the “CFO”), of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this annual report. Based on that review and evaluation, the CEO and CFO have concluded that as of July 31, 2009 disclosure controls and procedures, were not effective at ensuring that the material information required to be disclosed in our Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported as required in the application of SEC rules and forms.


Management’s Report on Internal Controls over Financial Reporting


Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act. Internal control over financial reporting is a set of processes designed by, or under the supervision of, a company’s principal executive and principal financial officers, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with GAAP and includes those policies and procedures that:


·

Pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect our transactions and dispositions of our assets;

·

Provide reasonable assurance our transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of our financial statements in accordance with GAAP, and that receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of our management and directors; and

·

Provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on the financial statement.


Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. It should be noted that any system of internal control, however well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, and not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the system will be met. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.


Our CEO and CFO have evaluated the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as described in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) as of the end of the period covered by this report based upon criteria established in “Internal Control-Integrated Framework” issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). As a result of this evaluation, we concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of July 31, 2009 as described below.  


We assessed the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of evaluation date and identified the following material weaknesses:


Insufficient Resources: We have an inadequate number of personnel with requisite expertise in the key functional areas of finance and accounting.


Inadequate Segregation of Duties : We have an inadequate number of personnel to properly implement control procedures.


Lack of Audit Committee: We do not have a functioning audit committee, resulting in lack of independent oversight in the establishment and monitoring of required internal controls and procedures.


We are committed to improving the internal controls and will (1) consider to use third party specialists to address shortfalls in staffing and to assist us with accounting and finance responsibilities, (2) increase the frequency of independent reconciliations of significant accounts which will mitigate the lack of segregation of duties until there are sufficient personnel and (3) may consider appointing additional outside directors and audit committee members in the future.



18




We have discussed the material weakness noted above with our independent registered public accounting firm. Due to the nature of this material weakness, there is a more than remote likelihood that misstatements which could be material to the annual or interim financial statements could occur that would not be prevented or detected.

 

This Annual Report does not include an attestation report of our independent registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting.  Management’s report was not subject to attestation by our independent registered public accounting firm pursuant to the rules of the SEC that permit us to provide only management’s report in this annual report.


Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting


There have been no changes in the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting.

Code of Ethics


In 2003 we adopted a Code of Ethics for Senior Financial Management to promote honest and ethical conduct and to deter wrongdoing.  This Code applies to our Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, controller, principal accounting officer and other employees performing similar functions.  The obligations of the Code of Ethics supplement, but do not replace, any other code of conduct or ethics policy applicable to our employees generally.


Under the Code of Ethics, all members of the senior financial management shall:


·

Act honestly and ethically in the performance of their duties at our company,

·

Avoid actual or apparent conflicts of interest between personal and professional relationships,

·

Provide full, fair, accurate, timely and understandable disclosure in reports and documents that we file with, or submits to, the SEC and in other public communications by our company,

We will provide a copy of the Code of to any person without charge, upon request.  Requests can be sent to China Nuvo Solar Energy, Inc., 319 Clematis Street, Suite 703, West Palm Beach, Florida 33401.


Corporate Governance


There have been no material changes to procedures by which security holders may recommend nominees to our board of directors.


We currently have no standing audit or nominating committees of our board of directors.  Our entire board of directors currently performs these functions.  While we currently have no standing audit or nominating committee, we have determined that Mr. Dahl would be considered an audit committee financial expert.


Director Independence


Our board of directors has four directors and has no standing sub-committees at this time due to the associated expenses and the small size of our board.  We are not currently listed on a national securities exchange that has requirements that a majority of the board of directors be independent, however, the board has determined that Stephen D. King, Richard W. Perkins, and Christopher T. Dahl are each “independent” under the definition set forth in the listing standards of the NASDAQ Stock Market, Inc., which is the definition that our board has chosen to use for the purposes of the determining independence.  

 

In performing the functions of the audit committee, our board oversees our accounting and financial reporting process.  In this function, our board performs several functions.  Our board, among other duties, evaluates and assesses the qualifications of the Company’s independent auditors; determines whether to retain or terminate the existing independent auditors; meets with the independent auditors and financial management of the Company to review the scope of the proposed audit and audit procedures on an annual basis; reviews and approves the retention of independent auditors for any non-audit services; reviews the independence of the independent auditors; reviews with the independent auditors and with the Company’s financial accounting personnel the adequacy and effectiveness of accounting and financial controls and considers recommendations for improvement of such controls; reviews the financial statements to be included in our annual and quarterly reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission; and discusses with the Company’s management and the independent auditors the results of the annual audit and the results of our quarterly financial statements. While we do not currently have a standing compensation committee, our non-employee director considers executive officer compensation, and our entire board participates in the consideration of director compensation.  Our non-employee board members oversee our compensation policies, plans and programs.  Our non-employee board members further review and approve corporate performance goals and objectives relevant to the compensation of our executive officers; review the compensation and other terms of employment of our Chief Executive Officer and our other executive officers; and administer our equity incentive and stock option plans.  Each of our directors participates in the consideration of director nominees.  In addition to nominees recommended by directors, our board will consider nominees recommended by shareholders if submitted in writing to our secretary.  Our board believes that any candidate for director, whether recommended by shareholders or by the board, should be considered on the basis of all factors relevant to our needs and the credentials of the candidate at the time the candidate is proposed.  Such factors include relevant business and industry experience and demonstrated character and judgment.

Board of Directors

China Nuvo Solar Energy, Inc. and subsidiary

West Palm Beach, Florida


Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm


We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of China Nuvo Solar Energy, Inc. as of July 31, 2009 and 2008, and the related statements of operations, stockholders’ deficit, and cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended July 31, 2009 and from April 16, 2006 (date of inception) through July 31, 2009. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.


We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States).  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides reasonable basis for our opinion.


In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of China Nuvo Solar Energy, Inc. as of July 31, 2009 and 2008, and the results of its operations, and its cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended July 31, 2009, and from April 16, 2006 (date of inception) through July 31, 2009 in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.


The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern.  As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, the Company has incurred net losses since inception, which raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern.  The financial statements do not include any adjustment that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


THE YEARS ENDED JULY 31, 2009 AND 2008

Organization, basis of presentation and summary of significant accounting policies:


Organization


China Nuvo Solar Energy, Inc. (the “Company”), was formerly known as Interactive Games, Inc., a Nevada Corporation ("Interactive").


In June 2007, our stockholders, through a written consent executed by stockholders holding a majority of the outstanding shares of our common stock entitled to vote, adopted and approved Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation and ratified the Amended and Restated Bylaws of the Company, which were adopted by our board of directors on June 26, 2007.


The Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation increased the authorized capital stock of the Company from 105,000,000 shares to 500,000,000 shares, of which 25,000,000 shares now may be preferred stock having the voting powers, designations, preferences, limitations, restrictions and relative rights as determined by the board of directors from time to time.  The Company’s stockholders also authorized our chief executive officer to change our name to China Nuvo Solar Energy, Inc. at such time as the chief executive officer deemed appropriate in his sole discretion.


Generally, the Amended and Restated Bylaws of the Company updated our former bylaws to reflect changes to applicable law.  For example, under the Amended and Restated Bylaws stockholders may now take action by written action signed by stockholders holding a majority of the shares entitled to vote on the given action.


Pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Reorganization dated as of April 23, 2007, as amended on July 25, 2007 (the “Share Exchange”), by and between the Company and Nuvo Solar Energy, Inc., a Colorado corporation (“Nuvo”) incorporated on April 13, 2006, we and Nuvo entered into a share exchange whereby all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Nuvo, on a fully-diluted basis, was exchanged for like securities of the Company, and whereby Nuvo became our wholly owned subsidiary (the “Share Exchange”).  The Share Exchange was effective as of July 25, 2007, upon the completed filing of Articles of Exchange with the Nevada Secretary of State and a Statement of Share Exchange with the Colorado Secretary of State.  Contemporaneously with the Share Exchange, we changed our name to “China Nuvo Solar Energy, Inc.”


Immediately prior to the effective time of the Share Exchange, Nuvo had outstanding 5,500,000 shares of its common stock (“Nuvo Common Stock”) and no shares of preferred stock.  In accordance with the Share Exchange Agreement, each share of Nuvo Common Stock was acquired by us in exchange for approximately 24.24 shares of our common stock for a total of 133,333,255 shares issued.  Accordingly, after giving effect to the Share Exchange, the Company had approximately 189,915,355 shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately following the transaction.  The shares issued were valued at approximately $8 million or $.06 per share (the market price of the common stock on the date of issuance).  The Company allocated the value of the shares to goodwill as the fair value of the liabilities assumed exceeded the fair value of the assets acquired. Management has determined that as of July 31, 2007 the goodwill amount of $8 million was impaired and recorded the write down of goodwill for the year ending July 31, 2007.


As a result of the Share Exchange, the former Nuvo shareholders together held approximately 66.6% of the Company’s outstanding common stock immediately following the transaction, on a fully-diluted basis.  Accordingly, the Share Exchange constituted a change of control of the Company.  As a result of the Share Exchange, Nuvo constituted the accounting acquirer in the Share Exchange; however, we elected to have a July 31 fiscal year end, which is the same fiscal year end that Interactive Games, Inc. had prior to the Share Exchange.


Nuvo was formed on April 13, 2006 for the purpose of seeking a business opportunity in the alternate energy or “next-generation energy" sector. This industry sector encompasses non-hydro carbon based energy production and renewable energy technologies that are “net-zero" or emissions free.


On June 9, 2006 Nuvo signed a license agreement with Photovoltaics.com, Inc. (“PV”), Hutchinson Island, Florida.  Nuvo acquired exclusive worldwide rights to PV's solar cell technology relating to a multiple stacked solar cell using wave guide transfers. This license agreement includes all patents issued pursuant to certain patent applications or amendments that have been filed and the rights to use all applicable copyrights, trademarks and related intellectual property obtained on or in connection with the process and products. As consideration for this license, Nuvo paid a total aggregate license fee of $250,000.   The term of the license is for 10 years, automatically renewable for successive ten year terms under the same terms and conditions as provided for in this agreement.  Nuvo also agreed to pay PV a fee of $180,000 over the first three years of the agreement to act as a consultant.

Organization (continued)


On November 27, 2007, we executed a Collaboration and Development Agreement (the “Collaboration Agreement”) with Pioneer Materials, Inc. (“PMI”) of Torrance, California.


Under the terms of the Agreement, PMI will build, equip, operate and manage, for our benefit, a product development, testing and prototype manufacturing facility in PMI’s Chengdu, Sichuan, China facility located in Chengdu’s West High Tech development zone.  The agreement with PMI has the objective to develop, test and manufacture prototypes of solar energy products using our licensed technology based on an invention titled “Photovoltaic cell with integral light transmitting waveguide in a ceramic sleeve”.  Additionally, PMI will provide technical, engineering development, testing and manufacturing employees and support staff.  The term of the Agreement is for one year, with automatic six-month renewal periods unless terminated by the parties.


Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, the Company will pay PMI $2,500 per month and PMI is eligible to receive up to 4,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock upon the satisfactory completion of certain milestone accomplishments in the Agreement, of which 500,000 shares of common stock were issued upon the execution of the Agreement.  The Company valued the shares at $0.07 per share (the market price of the common stock on the date the parties agreed to the number of shares to be issued) and recorded $35,000 as stock compensation for the year ended July 31, 2008. PMI is a manufacturer and supplier of materials for the semiconductor, hard drive media, optical media and photonic industries.  PMI is developing for the solar energy industry advanced materials for thin film photovoltaics (solar cell) processing. In May of 2008, the Chengdu region of China experienced a catastrophic earthquake.  As a result of this earthquake and the after effects including significant problems with the delivery of electricity, PMI originally suspended and has now discontinued their development work on our behalf. There has been no significant progress on product development and we continue to explore alternative avenues for development of our technology. We have suspended paying the $2,500 monthly fee.


The future milestones and potential shares that may be issued if we decide to continue the project with PMI are as follows:


Hiring of staff and readying of equipment

 

500,000

Demonstration of working single-junction solar cell with efficiency greater than 4%

 

500,000

Demonstration of working single-junction or multiple junction cell with efficiency greater than 10%

 

2,500,000


None of the above have been met as November 11, 2009.


On November 27, 2007, the Registrant appointed Mr. Richard W. Perkins and Mr. Christopher T. Dahl to its Board of Directors. Additionally, the Company granted 5,000,000 options from its 2007 Stock Option Plan (See Note 5) to its officers and directors. Each option has an exercise price of $0.07 per share and expires on November 27, 2012.


On January 23, 2008, the Company purchased from PV the patents related to the solar technology in exchange for 2,000,000 restricted shares of common stock of the Company. The Company now owns all rights, title and interest in the patents, including all issued patents or other intellectual property arising from the patents worldwide. The Company valued the common stock at $0.075 per share (the market price of the common stock on November 16, 2007, the date the parties agreed to the number of shares to be issued) and accordingly, increased its intellectual property asset by $150,000 on the balance sheet included herein.

Organization, basis of presentation and summary of significant accounting policies (continued):


Going concern and management’s plans


The Company had a working capital deficit of approximately $1,991,000 at July 31, 2009. Additionally, the Company to date has generated minimal revenues. Accordingly, the Company has no ready source of working capital. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. While management believes the Company may be able to raise funds through the issuance of debt or equity instruments, there is no assurance the Company will be able to raise sufficient funds to operate in the future. The debt financing may include loans from our officers and directors.  Although our balance sheet includes current liabilities of approximately $2,028,000, a portion of this amount are in the form of a derivative liability of $572,334 and convertible notes of $300,000 (of which $125,000 is a related party).  These amounts, plus other related party loans of approximately $120,000 and accrued and unpaid interest may be converted to common stock, thereby reducing considerably our debt service obligations.  Nevertheless, we will be required to raise funds in order to fund our operations and costs associated with being a public company.


As part of our initial planned operations, our main focus was to be the development of a viable manufacturing process for our technology.  As discussed above we initially planned that our arrangement with PMI would provide us with the facilities and expertise in China necessary to develop a pilot manufacturing process and eventually, a full manufacturing facility assuming the pilot process is successful.  Since this has not been successful we are continuing to develop our business plan. We do not intend to enter into any additional direct development of our technology.   Rather, we plan to become an incubator of the solar technology we currently own and technology that we may acquire in the future. We currently do not have any agreements to acquire any additional technology.  In order to acquire additional technology we would either have to raise additional money through equity or debt financing or in the alternative issue shares of our common stock. We intend to study the feasibility of sub-licensing or entering into other types of agreements with third parties, whereby the third party will compensate us by paying a license fee and subsequent royalties.  The compensation may be in the form of cash or in the licensee’s common stock.  Through our established relationships we plan to focus on the identification, acquisition and potential license or resale of renewable and alternative energy technologies.


We will require additional capital to fund any additional acquisitions of any technology as   well as for general corporate working capital to fund our day-to-day operations and costs associated with being a publicly-traded company.  This amount does not include any amounts which may be necessary to pay off existing debt or accrued expenses.  We presently believe the source of funds will primarily consist of debt financing, which may include debt instruments that may include loans from our officers or directors, or the sale of our equity securities in private placements or other equity offerings or instruments.


Basis of presentation


The consolidated financial statements for the year ending July 31, 2009 and 2008 include the accounts of the Company and our majority owned subsidiary Interactive Entertainment Group, Inc, (f/k/a/ Interactive Games, Inc.) a Florida Corporation (“IGAM”) and and our wholly owned subsidiary Nuvo.  All of the intercompany accounts have been eliminated in consolidation.  Certain reclassifications to amounts reported in the July 31, 2008 consolidated financial statements have been made to conform to the July 31, 2009 presentation.


Significant accounting policies:


Use of estimates


The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts and disclosures. Accordingly, actual results will differ from those estimates.

Organization, basis of presentation and summary of significant accounting policies (continued):


Significant accounting policies


The Company records intangible assets in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (SFAS) Number 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets.” Goodwill and other intangible assets deemed to have indefinite lives are not subject to annual amortization. Intangible assets which have finite lives are amortized on a straight line basis over their remaining useful life; they are also subject to annual impairment reviews.


Revenue recognition


The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 104, “Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements”.  This statement established that revenue can be recognized when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, the services have been delivered, all significant contractual obligations have been satisfied, the fee is fixed or determinable and collection is reasonably assured.


Cash and cash equivalents


The Company considers all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents.


Concentration on credit risks


The Company is subject to concentrations of credit risk primarily from cash and assets from discontinued operations.


The Company minimizes its credit risks associated with cash, including cash classified as assets from discontinued operations, by periodically evaluating the credit quality of its primary financial institutions.


Stock-based compensation


Effective January 1, 2006, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 (revised 2004), Share Based Payment (“SFAS No, 123R”).  SFAS No. 123R establishes the financial accounting and reporting standards for stock-based compensation plans.  As required by SFAS No. 123R, the Company will recognize the cost resulting from al stock-based payment transactions including shares issued under its stock option plans in the financial statements.


Prior to January 1, 2006, the Company accounted for stock-based employee compensation plans (including shares issued under its stock option plans) in accordance with APB Opinion No. 25 and followed the pro forma net income, pro forma income per share, and stock-based compensation plan disclosure requirements set forth in the Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation (“SFAS No. 123”).  The Company did not issue any stock options during the years ended July 31, 2007.  On November 27, 2007, the Company granted options to purchase 6,500,000 shares of common stock of which 5,000,000 options to purchase shares of common stock were to directors and officers.  The options have an exercise price of $0.07 per share and expire in November 2017.  There are 13,037,107 stock options and warrants outstanding at July 31, 2009.


Fair value of financial instruments


The carrying value of cash, assets of discontinued operations, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximate their fair value due to their short-term maturities. The carrying amount of the note payable and due to related parties approximate their fair value based on the Company's incremental borrowing rate.

Significant accounting policies (continued):


Income taxes


Income taxes are accounted for in accordance with SFAS No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes. SFAS No. 109 requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities to reflect the future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in the Company's financial statements or tax returns. Measurement of the deferred items is based on enacted tax laws. In the event the future consequences of differences between financial reporting bases and tax bases of the Company's assets and liabilities result in a deferred tax asset, SFAS No. 109 requires an evaluation of the probability of being able to realize the future benefits indicated by such assets. A valuation allowance related to a deferred tax asset is recorded when it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax asset will not be realized.


Loss per common share


Loss per share of common stock is computed based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period.  Stock options, warrants and common stock underlying convertible promissory  notes at July 31, 2009 and 2008 were 197,272,401 and 83,247,891 , respectively, are not considered in the calculation as the impact of the potential common shares would be to decrease loss per share and therefore no diluted loss per share figures are presented.


Accounting for obligations and instruments potentially settled in the Company’s common stock


In connection with any obligations and instruments potentially to be settled in the Company's stock, the Company accounts for the instruments in accordance with EITF Issue No. 00-19, Accounting for Derivative Financial Instruments Indexed to, and Potentially Settled in a Company’s Own Stock.  This issue addresses the initial balance sheet classification and measurement of contracts that are indexed to, and potentially settled in, the Company's stock.


Under EITF 00-19, contracts are initially classified as equity or as either assets or liabilities, depending on the situation. All contracts are initially measured at fair value and subsequently accounted for based on the then current classification. Contracts initially classified as equity do not recognize subsequent changes in fair value as long as the contracts continue to be classified as equity. For contracts classified as assets or liabilities, the Company reports changes in fair value in earnings and discloses these changes in the financial statements as long as the contracts remain classified as assets or liabilities. If contracts classified as assets or liabilities are ultimately settled in shares, any previously reported gains or losses on those contracts continue to be included in earnings. The classification of a contract is reassessed at each balance sheet date.


Derivative instruments


In connection with the issuances of equity instruments or debt, the Company may issue options or warrants to purchase common stock. In certain circumstances, these options or warrants may be classified as liabilities, rather than as equity. In addition, the equity instrument or debt may contain embedded derivative instruments, such as conversion options or listing requirements, which in certain circumstances may be required to be bifurcated from the associated host instrument and accounted for separately as a derivative liability instrument. The Company accounts for derivative instruments under the provisions of SFAS No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities.


Recent accounting pronouncements


In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, “Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities”, which permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value that are not currently required to be measured at fair value and establishes presentation and disclosure requirements designed to facilitate comparisons between entities that choose different measurement attributes for similar types of assets and liabilities. SFAS No. 159 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. The Company did not adopt SFAS No. 159 on any individual instrument as of January 1, 2008.

Recent accounting pronouncements (continued)


In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141 (revised 2007), “Business Combinations” (“SFAS No. 141R”). SFAS No. 141R is a revision to SFAS No. 141 and includes substantial changes to the acquisition method used to account for business combinations (formerly the “purchase accounting” method), including broadening the definition of a business, as well as revisions to accounting methods for contingent consideration and other contingencies related to the acquired business, accounting for transaction costs, and accounting for adjustments to provisional amounts recorded in connection with acquisitions. SFAS No.141R retains the fundamental requirement of SFAS No. 141 that the acquisition method of accounting be used for all business combinations and for an acquirer to be identified for each business combination. SFAS No. 141R is effective for periods beginning on or after December 15, 2008, and will apply to all business combinations occurring after the effective date. The Company is currently evaluating the requirements of SFAS No. 141R.


The FASB also issued SFAS No. 160, “Non-controlling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements – an amendment of Accounting Research Bulletin No. 51, Consolidated Financial Statements” in December 2007.   This statement amends ARB No. 51 to establish new standards that will govern the (1) accounting for and reporting of non-controlling interests in partially owned consolidated subsidiaries and (2) the loss of control of subsidiaries.  Non-controlling interest will be reported as part of equity in the consolidated financial statements.  Losses will be allocated to the non-controlling interest, and, if control is maintained, changes in ownership interests will be treated as equity transactions.  Upon a loss of control, any gain or loss on the interest sold will be recognized in earnings.  SFAS No. 160 is effective for periods beginning after December 15, 2008.  The Company is currently evaluating the requirements of SFAS No. 160.


The FASB also issued SFAS No. 161 “Disclosures about Derivatives Instruments and Hedging Activities” in March 2008.  This statement requires enhanced disclosures about an entity’s derivative and hedging activities and thereby improves the transparency of financial reporting.  This statement is effective for financial statements for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after November 15, 2008, with earlier application encouraged.  The Company is currently evaluating the requirements of SFAS No. 161.


The Company does not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards will have a material will have an effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flow.

Convertible debentures payable:


In April 2006, the Company executed a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with various accredited investors (the “Holder” or “Holders”) for the issuance and sale of up to $700,000 of 6% unsecured convertible debentures in private transactions.  As of July 31, 2006, the Company completed the sale of the aggregate $385,000 in Debentures under the Purchase Agreement.  We received $324,950 from these transactions net of $60,050 of debt issuance costs paid to our placement agents, Divine Capital Markets, LLC (included in the accompanying balance sheet), which will be amortized as debt issuance costs over the three year term of the convertible notes.  For the year ended July 31, 2008, debt issuance costs were $50,859. The Debentures cannot be converted until nine (9) months after the issuance date of each Debenture.  During the year ended July 31, 2008, the Holders converted$299,125 of the 2006 Debentures to 6,079,573 shares of common stock at an average conversion price of approximately $0.049 per share.  At July 31, 2009 and 2008 the remaining face amount of the 2006 Debentures is $0.

Convertible debentures payable (continued):


On October 21, 2007 the Board of Director of the Company authorized the sale of up to $700,000 of 6% unsecured convertible debentures (the “2007 Debentures”).  During the year ended July 31, 2008, the Company executed a Securities Purchase Agreement with various accredited investors, whereby the Company sold in the aggregate $505,000 of the 2007 Debentures.  We received net proceeds of $429,350 after $75,650 of debt issuance costs (included in the accompanying balance sheet), paid to Divine, who acted as our placement agent.  The debt issuance costs will be amortized as debt issuance costs over the three year term of the 2007 Debentures.  The terms and conditions of the 2007 Debentures are the same as the 2006 Debentures.  Accordingly, fair value of these derivative instruments have been recorded as a liability on the consolidated balance sheet with the corresponding amount recorded as a discount to the 2007 Debentures.  The change in the fair value of the liability will be credited or (charged) to other income or (expense) in the consolidated statement of operations.  The beneficial conversion feature included in the 2007 Debentures resulted in an initial debt discount of $505,000 and an initial loss on the valuation of derivative liabilities of $219,878.  Based on the revaluation of the 2007 Debentures at July 31, 2009, the Company recorded a credit to expense of $96 and decreased the derivative liability on the balance sheet by $96.


The Debentures are due three years from the final Closing Date under the Purchase Agreement (the “Maturity Date”), unless prepayment of the Debentures is required in certain events, as described below.  The Debentures are convertible at a conversion price (the “Conversion Price”) for each share of common stock equal to 75% of the lowest closing bid price per share (as reported by Bloomberg, LP) of the Corporation’s common stock for the twenty (20) trading days immediately preceding the date of conversion.  In addition, the Debentures provide for adjustments for dividends payable other than in shares of common stock, for reclassification, exchange or substitution of the common stock for another security or securities of the Corporation or pursuant to a reorganization, merger, consolidation, or sale of assets, where there is a change in control of the Corporation.


The outstanding principal balance of each Debenture bears interest, in arrears, at six percent (6%) per annum, payable (i) upon conversion, or (ii) on the Maturity Date, in shares of our common stock at the Conversion Price.  Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default (as defined in the Purchase Agreement), then the Corporation is required to pay interest to the Holder of each outstanding Debenture, at the option of the Holders (i) at the rate of lesser of eighteen percent (18%) per annum and the maximum interest rate allowance under applicable law, and (ii) the Holders may at their option declare the Debentures, together with all accrued and unpaid interest (the “Acceleration Amount”), to be immediately due and payable.


The Corporation may at its option call for redemption all or part of the Debentures prior to the Maturity Date, as follows:


The Debentures called for redemption shall be redeemable for an amount (the “Redemption Price”) equal to (x) if called for redemption prior to the date which is nine months from the date of issuance (the “Issuance Date”), 115%, if called for redemption on or after the date that is nine months after the Issuance Date but prior to the first anniversary of the Issuance Date, 131%, in either case of the principal amount called for redemption, plus (y) interest accrued through the day immediately preceding the date of redemption.


(i)

If fewer than all outstanding Debentures are to be redeemed, then all Debentures shall be partially redeemed on a pro rata basis.


In connection with the Purchase Agreement, the Company entered into a Registration Rights Agreement, dated as of April 24, 2006 (“Registration Rights Agreement”), with the Holders of the Debentures to provide certain registration rights under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and the rules and regulations thereunder.  Pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, the Company contemplates making an offering of common stock (or other equity securities convertible into or exchangeable for common stock) registered for sale under the Securities Act or proposes to file a Registration Statement covering any of its securities other than (i) a registration of Form S-8 or S-4, or any successor or similar forms; and (ii) a shelf registration under Rule 415 for the sole purpose of registering shares to be issued in connection with the acquisition of assets, the Company will at each such time give prompt written notice to the Holders’ representative and the Holders of its intention to do so.  Upon the written request of any Holder made within thirty (30) days after the receipt of any such notice, the Company has agreed to use its best efforts to effect the registration of all such registrable securities which the Company has been so requested to register by the Holders, to the extent requisite to permit the disposition by the requesting Holders of their registrable securities pursuant to the Registration Statement.

5.

Convertible debentures payable (continued):


The Company determined that the conversion feature of the convertible Debentures represents an embedded derivative since the Debentures are convertible into a variable number of shares upon conversion. Accordingly, the convertible Debentures are not considered to be conventional debt under EITF 00-19 and the embedded conversion feature must be bifurcated from the debt host and accounted for as a derivative liability. The Company believes that the aforementioned embedded derivatives and freestanding warrants meet the criteria of SFAS 133 and EITF 00-19, and should be accounted separately as derivatives with a corresponding value recorded as a liability. Accordingly, the fair value of these derivative instruments have been recorded as a liability on the consolidated balance sheet with the corresponding amount recorded as a discount to the 2006 Debentures. Such discount will be accreted from the date of issuance to the maturity date of the 2006 Debentures. The change in the fair value of the liability for derivative contracts will be credited to other income (expense) in the consolidated statements of operations. The $385,000 face amount of the 2006 Debentures were stripped of their conversion feature due to the accounting for the conversion feature as a derivative, which was recorded using the residual proceeds to the conversion option would be attributed to the debt. The beneficial conversion feature (an embedded derivative) included in the 2006 Debenture resulted in an initial debt discount of $385,000 and an initial loss on the valuation of derivative liabilities of $75,874.


The Company issued 1,500,000 shares of its common stock to Divine Capital Markets, LLC and/or its designees as consideration for its services as the placement agent in connection with the financing transaction described above.

The Company may have had a change of ownership as defined by the Internal Revenue Code Section 382. As a result, a substantial annual limitation may be imposed upon the future utilization of its net operating loss carryforwards. At this point, the Company has not completed a change in ownership study and the exact impact of such limitations is unknown. The company has no accrued tax liability, as the income was derived from the sale of a subsidiary and the liabilities were alleviated through formal bankruptcy proceedings.
