PART I

ITEM 1.    BUSINESS

Anoteros Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated on September 25, 1996 under the laws of the State of Nevada, as Out of Bounds Sports Co. and initially entered the sportswear market, manufacturing and marketing tee shirts, golf shorts and hats with the “OB Golf” and “OB Sports” logo.

Thereafter, the Company turned its focus to the children’s education and entertainment arena utilizing the gorilla charter “Doolittle” depicted in various sporting activities and worked on various story lines and character treatments.  We completed the final story line and draft of Book 1 – The Story of Doolittle, an Exceptional Young Gorilla in May 2000.  The story line and preliminary draft of Book 2 – The Adventures of Dynamic Doolittle – Episode 1 “The Problem with Paulie Python” was completed in October 2000 and, the story line and preliminary draft of Book 3 - Doolittle’s Very, Very Bad Day was completed in May 2001.

On February 19, 2002, the Company formed Doolittle Edutainment Corp., a Nevada corporation (“Doolittle Edutainment”) as a wholly owned subsidiary, for the purpose of holding the intellectual property and other assets relating to the Company’s Doolittle books and product line.
 
On April 29, 2011, the Company closed an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with COA Holdings, Inc., a Nevada corporation (“COAH”), Antero Payment Solutions, Inc., a Nevada corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (“Merger Sub”), and certain Major Shareholders of COAH (the “Major Shareholders”) whereby the Company acquired COAH through the merger of COAH with and into Merger Sub (the “Merger”) with Merger Sub being the surviving corporation, and the business of COAH continuing through Merger Sub, under the name Antero Payment Solutions, Inc., as a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company.  

On September 14, 2011, the Company and George Chachas (“Mr. Chachas”) entered into an Assignment and Assumption Agreement (the “Assignment and Assumption Agreement”), whereby, Mr. Chachas exercised a previously granted option (the “Option”) to acquire Doolittle Edutainment Corp. Mr. Chachas originally acquired the Option pursuant to the terms and conditions the Merger Agreement. Mr. Chachas delivered Notice of Exercise of Assignee’s Option to the Company on September 12, 2011. Accordingly, Mr. Chachas will acquire all of the capital stock of Doolittle Edutainment as well as all assets and intellectual property owned by Doolittle Edutainment and any and all liabilities associated with Doolittle Edutainment.

Accordingly, we now operate through our wholly-owned subsidiary, Antero Payment Solutions, Inc.

Antero Payment Solutions, Inc.

Antero is a global provider of information management and electronic commerce systems for the financial services industry.  Antero has developed a wide range of e-commerce platforms to ensure secure electronic payments for checking, debit card, prepaid card and mobile payment applications, providing merchants with opportunities for lower cost structures and the potential to increase their client bases.  Antero performs the issuing and processing tasks of bank processors, while offering a complete suite of customer support services.  By owning and servicing our own branded products, we help to create additional value for clients by educating their teams in better ways to increase penetration of their markets through our online and retail networks.

We partner with banks, card associations and networks to issue debit cards, prepaid cards, virtual cards, mobile applications, mobile wallets, ACH services and provide other gateway processing.  Our products can serve all consumer markets, but are especially effective for the unbanked, under-banked and convenience type users, such as person-to-person (P2P) payments, bill pay and remote deposit capture.  We have developed strong alliances with numerous financial institutions and networks.

Over time, we have expanded our business from standard card platforms to an industry expert and specialist on customized financial transaction systems to include ACH, Mobile Wallets and Virtual Card programs.  As a financial services partner, Antero builds, enhances and/or supports our customer’s critical applications via the right products and services.

We intend to offer a suite of products such as P2P, Virtual Card programs and Mobile Wallets, and by doing so we hope Antero will create multiple points of interchange; fee based and “on us” types (Antero internal transactions, usually at a reduced fee compared with institutional transaction). This array of products not only provides consumers with an innovative new secure shopping experience, but also brings a new standard in authorization and settlement, which may significantly lower the cost of transactions for merchants.  With the benefit of lower fees and fewer chargebacks, we can offer alternative payment platforms as a valuable add-on feature for any retail or e-commerce merchant.  Our new technology allows customers to manage transactions through their favorite retailer, self-service stations or their mobile device.

Mobile payments are quickly becoming a large segment of the payment market, and the Antero network is at the forefront of this hybrid technology.  Financial institutions can provide customers with aggressive incentive-based programs such as rewards, points, and/or instant discounts while becoming mobile device aware, giving merchants many reasons to participate.

Antero has a strong commitment to working closely with multiple marketing partners and financial institutions on the development of mutually beneficial pricing models.  The goal is to support strong and aggressive growth and acceptance in the marketplace; a strategy that enhances the success of both partners with profitable market development and execution.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Effective April 29, 2011, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger with COA Holding, Inc. (“COAH”), a Nevada corporation, whereby the Company acquired COAH through the merger of its newly formed subsidiary, Antero Payment Solutions, Inc.  Antero Payment Solutions, Inc. was the surviving corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company.  As a result of the merger, COAH will continue its current line of business as a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company and will conduct its future operations under the name Antero Payment Solutions, Inc.

Upon completion of the transaction, the former COAH shareholders owned approximately 48,361,737 restricted shares of the Company’s common stock, representing 93% of the outstanding common stock of the Company.  As a result, the acquisition has been recorded as a reverse merger with COAH being treated as the accounting acquirer and the Company as the legal acquirer (accounting acquiree).  As such, the activities and results of operations for both COAH and the Company have been combined as of the acquisition date.  The comparative figures to be mentioned below include only the operations of COAH.

Year ended December 31, 2011 compared to the year ended December 31, 2010

For the year ended December 31, 2011, the Company had revenue of $46,841 compared with revenue of $419,522 for the comparable period in 2010.  The decrease in revenue is due to a cease in operations while the Company was restructured.  As the Company enters into new distribution agreements, revenue is expected to increase.

Cost of sales for the year ended December 31, 2011 was $237,918 compared to $312,891 for the comparable period in 2010.  The Company has incurred expenses in 2011 associated with resuming its operations.  As revenues resume, the Company expected margins to be comparable to historical trends.

Operating expenses for the year ended December 31, 2011 totaled $7,889,797 compared to $2,093,741 for the comparable period in 2010.  This increase resulted primarily from the Company’s concerted efforts to resume operations, which resulted in increases in both professional and general and administrative expenses incurred during the current period.

Other income and expenses for the year ended December 31, 2011 and 2010 were $(1,583,664) and $(171,882) respectively.  The Company recorded interest expense of $52,070 and $182,765 during 2011 and 2010, respectively.  The Company also realized a loss on the conversion of debt of $1,641,199 and a gain on the conversion of debts of $10,833 in 2010.

The Company incurred a net loss of $9,664,538 during the year ended December 31, 2011 compared to $2,158,992 for the comparable period in 2010.  As noted above, this increase resulted primarily from the Company’s concerted efforts to resume operations, which resulted in increases in both professional and general and administrative expenses incurred during the current period as well as large expenses associated with the non-cash expenses related to the settling of debt and issuing stock for services.  During the year-ended period in 2011, the Company issued stock and warrants valued at $7,150,558 for services rendered and realized a loss on the conversion of debt of $1,641,199.  During 2010, the Company issued stock valued at $1,428,000 for services rendered.  Absent these large non-cash expenses, net losses would have been $872,781 during the year ended December 31, 2011 and $730,992 for the comparable period in 2010.

Basic net loss per share was $(0.20) for the year ended December 31, 2011, compared to a basic net loss per share of $(0.04) from the comparable period of 2010.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of December 31, 2011, the Company had a negative working capital of $1,119,515 compared to a negative working capital of $1,869,976 at December 31, 2010.  The change in working capital resulted primarily from the receipt of $426,221 in cash via borrowings on related-party notes, and $200,000 in cash via sales of common stock, coupled with a $441,315 increase in accounts payable and accrued expenses.  These amounts were partially offset by $232,228 in repayments of notes and short-term payables and a $37,500 decrease in accounts receivable during the year ended December 31, 2011.

During the year ended December 31, 2011, the Company experienced negative cash flow of $437,640 from operating activities.  The Company met its cash requirements during this period primarily through its debt and equity financing activities, realizing a cash inflow from financing activities in the amount of $437,622.

Critical Accounting Policies

Our financial statements and accompanying notes have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles applied on a consistent basis.  The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods.

We regularly evaluate the accounting policies and estimates that we use to prepare our financial statements.  A complete summary of these policies is included in the notes to our financial statements.  In general, management's estimates are based on historical experience, on information from third party professionals, and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the facts and circumstances.  Actual results could differ from those estimates made by management.

Going Concern

We have not attained profitable operations and are dependent upon obtaining financing to pursue any extensive acquisitions and activities.  For these reasons, our auditors stated in their report on our audited financial statements that they have substantial doubt that we will be able to continue as a going concern without further financing.

Future Financings

We will continue to rely on equity sales of our common shares in order to continue to fund our business operations. Issuances of additional shares will result in dilution to existing stockholders.  There is no assurance that we will achieve any additional sales of the equity securities or arrange for debt or other financing to fund our operations and other activities.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We have no significant off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to stockholders.

Contractual Obligations
 
We are a smaller reporting company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and are not required to provide the information under this item.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In March 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2010-11 (“ASU No. 2010-11”), “Derivatives and Hedging (ASC Topic 815): Scope Exception Related to Embedded Credit Derivatives.”  The amendments in this Update are effective for each reporting entity at the beginning of its first fiscal quarter beginning after June 15, 2010.  Early adoption is permitted at the beginning of each entity’s first fiscal quarter beginning after issuance of this Update.  The Company’s adoption of provisions of ASU No. 2010-11 did not have a material effect on the financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.

In February 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-10 (“ASU No. 2010-10”), “Consolidation (Topic 810): Amendments for Certain Investment Funds.”  The amendments in this Update are effective as of the beginning of a reporting entity’s first annual period that begins after November 15, 2009 and for interim periods within that first reporting period.  Early application is not permitted.  The Company’s adoption of provisions of ASU No. 2010-10 did not have a material effect on the financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.

In February 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-09 (“ASU No. 2010-09”), “Subsequent Events (ASC Topic 855): Amendments to Certain Recognition and Disclosure Requirements.”  ASU No. 2010-09 requires an entity that is an SEC filer to evaluate subsequent events through the date that the financial statements are issued and removes the requirement for an SEC filer to disclose a date, in both issued and revised financial statements, through which the filer had evaluated subsequent events.  The Company’s adoption of provisions of ASU No. 2010-09 did not have a material effect on the financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.

In January 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-06 (“ASU No. 2010-06”), “Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements.” ASU No. 2010-06 amends FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 820 and clarifies and provides additional disclosure requirements related to recurring and non-recurring fair value measurements and employers’ disclosures about postretirement benefit plan assets.  This ASU is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2009.  The Company’s adoption of provisions of ASU No. 2010-06 did not have a material effect on the financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.

In January 2010, the FASB issued an amendment to ASC Topic 505, “Equity”, where entities that declare dividends to shareholders that may be paid in cash or shares at the election of the shareholders are considered to be a share issuance that is reflected prospectively in EPS, and is not accounted for as a stock dividend.  This standard is effective for interim and annual periods ending on or after December 15, 2009 and is to be applied on a retrospective basis.  The Company’s adoption of the amendment to ASC Topic 505 did not have a material effect on the financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.

In January 2010, the FASB issued an amendment to ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosure”, to require reporting entities to separately disclose the amounts and business rationale for significant transfers in and out of Level 1 and Level 2 fair value measurements and separately present information regarding purchase, sale, issuance, and settlement of Level 3 fair value measures on a gross basis.  This standard, for which the Company is currently assessing the impact, is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2009 with the exception of disclosures regarding the purchase, sale, issuance, and settlement of Level 3 fair value measures, which are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010.  The Company’s adoption of the amendment to ASC Topic 820 did not have a material effect on the financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.

The Company has implemented all new accounting pronouncements that are in effect.  These pronouncements did not have any material impact on the financial statements unless otherwise disclosed, and the Company does not believe that there are any other new accounting pronouncements that have been issued that might have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
 
 
 
To the Board of Directors and
 
Stockholders of Anoteros, Inc. and Subsidiaries
 
We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Anoteros, Inc. and Subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2011 and 2010 and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ equity (deficit), and cash flows for each of the years ending December 31, 2011 and 2010. The consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.
 
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
 
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Anoteros Inc. and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 2011 and 2010, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
 
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern.  The Company has a deficit book value and a negative cash flow from operations that have placed substantial doubt as to whether the Company can continue as a going concern.  The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on developing operations, increasing revenues and obtaining new capital.  Management’s plan in regard to these matters is also described in Note 2 to the financial statements.  The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Notes to the Financial Statements


 
NOTE 1 – NATURE OF OPERATIONS

COA Holdings, Inc. (“the Company”) was incorporated in the state of Nevada on June 27, 2008.  The Company began operations as Allow Card of America, Inc (“ACOA”), which is incorporated in the state of Delaware on August 19, 2003.  As ACOA grew, additional wholly owned subsidiaries were formed (“the Group”).  COA was formed to act as the parent company to the group of companies. Accordingly, the financial statements are presented as a recapitalization of the Group, with the historical financial statements of the Group presented as those of the Company.

Effective April 29, 2011, the Company, entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger with Anoteros, Inc. (“Anoteros”), a Nevada corporation, whereby Anoteros acquired the Company through the merger of its newly formed subsidiary, Antero Payment Solutions, Inc.  Antero Payment Solutions, Inc. was the surviving corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Anoteros.  Upon completion of the transaction, the former Company shareholders owned approximately 48,361,737 restricted shares of the Company’s common stock, representing 93% of the outstanding common stock of the combined entity.  As a result, the acquisition has been recorded as a reverse merger with the Company being treated as the accounting acquirer and Anoteros as the legal acquirer (accounting acquiree).  Accordingly, the historical financial statements of the Company are presented as those of the combined entity.

The Company has developed software for prepaid cards that functions between the Company, the credit card processor, and the banks. The Company provides data capture, card issuance, reporting, fraud, compliance, and consulting for the prepaid card industry.

NOTE 2 – GOING CONCERN

The Company's financial statements are prepared using generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America applicable to a going concern which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has not yet established an ongoing source of revenues sufficient to cover its operating costs and allow it to continue as a going concern.  During the year ended December 31, 2011 the Company realized a net loss of $9,664,538 and has incurred an accumulated deficit of $23,018,151.  The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on the Company obtaining adequate capital to fund operating losses until it becomes profitable. If the Company is unable to obtain adequate capital, it could be forced to cease operations.

In order to continue as a going concern, the Company will need, among other things, additional capital resources. Management's plan is to obtain such resources for the Company by obtaining capital from management and significant shareholders sufficient to meet its minimal operating expenses and seeking equity and/or debt financing. However management cannot provide any assurances that the Company will be successful in accomplishing any of its plans.

The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to successfully accomplish the plans described in the preceding paragraph and eventually secure other sources of financing and attain profitable operations. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

NOTE 3 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Use of Estimates
The preparation of these financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The Company regularly evaluates estimates and assumptions related to valuation allowances on accounts receivable, valuation and amortization policies on property and equipment, and valuation allowances on deferred income tax losses. The Company bases its estimates and assumptions on current facts, historical experience and various other factors that it believes to be reasonable

Notes to the Financial Statements



NOTE 3 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

Use of Estimates (Continued)
under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities and the accrual of costs and expenses that are not readily apparent from other sources. The actual results experienced by the Company may differ materially and adversely from the Company’s estimates. To the extent there are material differences between the estimates and the actual results, future results of operations will be affected.

Basis of Presentation
These financial statements and related notes are presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, and are expressed in U.S. dollars. The Company’s fiscal year-end is December 31.

Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid instruments with maturity of three months or less at the time of issuance to be cash equivalents. As of December 31, 2011 and 2010 the Company had $-0- and $18 of cash, respectively.  The Company had no cash equivalents.

Concentration of Credit Risk
Financial instruments, which potentially subject us to concentrations of credit risk, consist principally of cash.   Our cash balances are maintained in accounts held by major banks and financial institutions located in the United States.  The Company occasionally maintains amounts on deposit with a financial institution that are in excess of the federally insured limit of $250,000. The risk is managed by maintaining all deposits in high quality financial institutions. The Company had approximately $0 of cash balances in excess of federally insured limits at December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

Accounts Receivable
Trade accounts receivable are recorded at the invoiced amount and do not bear interest. The allowance for doubtful accounts represents the Company’s best estimate of the amount of probable credit losses in the existing accounts receivable balance. The Company determines the allowance for doubtful accounts based upon historical write-off experience and current economic conditions. The adequacy of its allowance for doubtful accounts is reviewed on a regular basis. Receivable balances past due over 120 days, which exceed a specified dollar amount, are reviewed individually for collectability. Account balances are charged off against the allowance after all means of collection have been exhausted and the potential for recovery is considered remote. The allowance for doubtful accounts totaled $-0- and $-0- as of December 31, 2011 and 2010.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments 
The Company adopted the standard issued by the FASB, which clarifies the definition of fair value, prescribes methods for measuring fair value, and establishes a fair value hierarchy to classify the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows:

Level 1-Inputs are unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities available at the measurement date.

Level 2-Inputs are unadjusted quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other then quoted prices that are observable, and inputs derived from or corroborated by observable market data.

Level 3-Inputs are unobservable inputs which reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions on what assumptions the market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability based on the best available information.

The carrying amounts reported in the balance sheets for cash, accounts receivable, loans payable, and accounts payable and accrued expenses, approximate their fair market value based on the short-term maturity of these instruments.

The standard issued by the FASB concerning the fair value option for financial assets and liabilities, became effective for the Company on January 1, 2008. The standard establishes a fair value option that permits entities to choose to measure eligible financial instruments and certain other items at fair value at specified election dates. A business entity shall report unrealized gains and losses on items for which the fair value options have been elected in earnings at each subsequent reporting date. For the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, there were no applicable items on which the fair value option was elected.

Revenue Recognition
The Company applies the provisions of ASC 605, "Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements", which provides guidance on the recognition, presentation and disclosure of revenue in financial statements filed with the SEC. ASC 605 outlines the basic criteria that must be met to recognize revenue and provides guidance for disclosure related to revenue recognition policies. In general, the Company recognizes revenue related to goods and services provided when (i) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, (ii) delivery has occurred or services have been rendered, (iii) the fee is fixed or determinable, and (iv) collectability is reasonably assured.

Stock-Based Compensation
The Company follows the provisions of ASC 718 which requires all share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, to be recognized in the income statement based on their fair values.  The Company uses the Black-Scholes pricing model for determining the fair value of stock based compensation. Equity instruments issued to non-employees for goods or services are accounted for at fair value and are marked to market until service is complete or a performance commitment date is reached, whichever is earlier.

Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse.
 
In July, 2006, the FASB issued ASC 740, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes, which clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a return. ASC 740 provides guidance on the measurement, recognition, classification and disclosure of tax positions, along with accounting for the related interest and penalties. ASC 740 became effective as of January 1, 2007 and had no impact on the Company’s financial statements. The charge for taxation is based on the results for the year as adjusted for items, which are non-assessable or disallowed. It is calculated using tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the balance sheet date.

Basic and Diluted Net income (Loss) per Share
The Company computes net income (loss) per share in accordance with ASC 260 which requires presentation of both basic and diluted earnings per share (EPS) on the face of the income statement. Basic EPS is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common shareholders (numerator) by the weighted average number of shares outstanding (denominator) during the period. Diluted EPS gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period using the treasury stock method and convertible preferred stock using the if-converted method. In computing Diluted EPS, the average stock price for the period is used in determining the number of shares assumed to be purchased from the exercise of stock options or warrants. Diluted EPS excludes all dilutive potential shares if their effect is anti-dilutive.  For the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, the Company’s 2,645,944 and 1,645,944 warrants and options, respectively, are excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share as they are anti-dilutive.

NOTE 9 – INCOME TAXES

The Company’s provision for income taxes was $0 for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010 respectively since the Company incurred net operating losses which have a full valuation allowance through December 31, 2011.

ASC 740 requires the reduction of deferred tax assets by a valuation allowance if, based on the weight of available evidence, it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. In the Company’s opinion, it is uncertain whether they will generate sufficient taxable income in the future to fully utilize the net deferred tax asset. Accordingly, a full valuation allowance equal to the deferred tax asset has been recorded. The total deferred tax asset is calculated by multiplying a 41% marginal tax rate by the cumulative Net Operating Loss (“NOL”) of $6,999,381. The total valuation allowance is equal to the total deferred tax asset.  

The tax effects of significant items comprising the Company's net deferred taxes as of December 31, 2011 and 2010 were as follows:

ITEM 9.                         CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE.
 
On July 11, 2011, Lake & Associates, CPA’s (“Lake”) was engaged as the registered independent public accountant for the Company and HJ Associates & Consultants, LLP (“HJ”) was dismissed as the registered independent public accountant for the Company.  The decisions to appoint Lake and dismiss HJ were approved by the Board of Directors of the Company on July 11, 2011.

Other than the disclosure of uncertainty regarding the ability for us to continue as a going concern, which was included in our accountant’s report on the financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, HJ’s reports on the financial statements of the Company for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009 did not contain an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion, nor were they qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principles. For the two most recent fiscal years and any subsequent interim period through HJ's termination on July 11, 2011, HJ disclosed the uncertainty regarding the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern in its accountant’s report on the financial statements.

In connection with the audit and review of the financial statements of the Company through July 11, 2011, there were no disagreements on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosures, or auditing scope or procedures, which disagreements if not resolved to their satisfaction would have caused them to make reference in connection with HJ's opinion to the subject matter of the disagreement.

In connection with the audited financial statements of the Company for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009 and interim unaudited financial statements through March 31, 2011, there have been no reportable events with the Company as set forth in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.

Prior to July 11, 2011, the Company did not consult with Lake regarding (1) the application of accounting principles to specified transactions, (2) the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Company’s financial statements, (3) written or oral advice was provided that would be an important factor considered by the Company in reaching a decision as to an accounting, auditing or financial reporting issues, or (4) any matter that was the subject of a disagreement between the Company and its predecessor auditor as described in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) or a reportable event as described in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.

The Company provided a copy of the foregoing disclosures to HJ prior to filing a Current Report on Form 8-K with the Securities & Exchange Commission  (“SEC”) on July 14, 2011 (the “Form 8-K”) and requested that HJ furnish it with a letter addressed to the SEC stating whether or not it agrees with the statements in the Form 8-K. A copy of the letter furnished in response to that request was filed as Exhibit 16.1 to the Form 8-K.

Identification of Significant Employees

We have no significant employees other than Mr. Michael Lerma, our President, Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, Treasurer, Secretary and Director.
 
Family Relationship

We currently do not have any officers or directors of our Company who are related to each other.

Audit Committee and Audit Committee Financial Expert

The Company does not have an audit committee or an audit committee financial expert (as defined in Item 407 of Regulation S-K) serving on its Board of Directors. All current members of the Board of Directors lack sufficient financial expertise for overseeing financial reporting responsibilities.  The Company has not yet employed an audit committee financial expert on its Board due to the inability to attract such a person.

The Company intends to establish an audit committee of the board of directors, which will consist of independent directors. The audit committee’s duties will be to recommend to the Company’s board of directors the engagement of an independent registered public accounting firm to audit the Company’s financial statements and to review the Company’s accounting and auditing principles. The audit committee will review the scope, timing and fees for the annual audit and the results of audit examinations performed by the internal auditors and independent registered public accounting firm, including their recommendations to improve the system of accounting and internal controls. The audit committee will at all times be composed exclusively of directors who are, in the opinion of the Company’s board of directors, free from any relationship which would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment as a committee member and who possess an understanding of financial statements and generally accepted accounting principles.

Code of Ethics

Our Board of Directors has not adopted a Code of Ethics (the “Code”) due to the fact that we presently only have two directors and we are in the development stage of our operations.  We anticipate that we will adopt a code of ethics when we increase either the number of our directors and officers or the number of our employees.

Compliance with Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act

Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 requires our directors and executive officers and persons who beneficially own more than ten percent of a registered class of our equity securities to file with the SEC initial reports of ownership and reports of change in ownership of common stock and other equity securities of the Company. Officers, directors and greater than ten percent stockholders are required by SEC regulations to furnish us with copies of all Section 16(a) forms they file. Based solely upon a review of Forms 3 and 4 and amendments thereto furnished to us under Rule 16a-3(e) during the year ended December 31, 2011, Forms 5 and any amendments thereto furnished to us with respect to the year ended December 31, 2011, and the representations made by the reporting persons to us, we believe that during the year ended December 31, 2011, our executive officers and directors and all persons who own more than ten percent of a registered class of our equity securities complied with all Section 16(a) filing requirements.

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS, AND DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCE.

Related Party Transactions

None of the directors or executive officers of the Company, nor any person who owned of record or was known to own beneficially more than 5% of the Company’s outstanding shares of its Common Stock, nor any associate or affiliate of such persons or companies, has any material interest, direct or indirect, in any transaction that has occurred during the past fiscal year, or in any proposed transaction, which has materially affected or will affect the Company.

With regard to any future related party transaction, we plan to fully disclose any and all related party transactions in the following manner: 

·  
Disclosing such transactions in reports where required;
·  
Disclosing in any and all filings with the SEC, where required;
·  
Obtaining disinterested directors consent; and,
·  
Obtaining shareholder consent where required.

Director Independence

For purposes of determining director independence, we have applied the definitions set out in NASDAQ Rule 5605(a)(2). The OTCBB on which shares of common stock are quoted does not have any director independence requirements.  The NASDAQ definition of “Independent Officer” means a person other than an Executive Officer or employee of the Company or any other individual having a relationship which, in the opinion of the Company's Board of Directors, would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director.
 
 
 
29

 

 
According to the NASDAQ definition, Michael Lerma is not an independent director because he is also an executive officer of the Company.
 
According to the NASDAQ definition, Robert H. O’Connor is an independent director.

We are a smaller reporting company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and are not required to provide the information under this item.
