PART I

ITEM 1 BUSINESS

Corporate Information

Principal Solar, Inc. is the successor company to Kupper Parker Communications, Inc. (“KPCG”), having been created in March 2011 through a reverse merger undertaken pursuant to an Exchange Agreement dated as of March 15, 2011, between Principal Solar, Inc. (a Texas corporation, “Principal Solar Texas”) and KPCG. Upon completion of the transactions contemplated by the Exchange Agreement as described in more detail below, KPCG’s name was changed to “Principal Solar, Inc.”

Business

Our business plan is to acquire, build, own, and operate profitable, large-scale solar generation facilities, while also creating a website which is a focal point for solar vendors and buyers, and to create an innovative solar company. The Company is in a fast growing segment of the global energy industry and, as of December 31, 2014, had approximately $104,000 of cash on hand, and has generated only approximately $1,500,000 of total revenues since the Company’s change in business focus in connection with the Exchange Agreement, and there remain questions about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

Based on the knowledge, expertise and operational experience of our technical and management team, as well as our focus on photovoltaic ("PV") generation facilities, we believe we have a team in place that can grow our operations and to potentially become one of the most significant players in the renewable energy sector.

Our primary objective is to build a significant, innovative and valuable solar company. We are currently employing our business expertise, our Board of Directors, advisory team and employee expertise with the goal of accelerating growth in an industry that we believe is ripe for consolidation today based upon our management’s observation that the solar industry has many unrelated participants (i.e., that it is "fragmented"), our observation of the industry's rapid expansion and growing acceptance of solar generation, and the observable declining costs for solar panels and inverters. These observations have caused us to believe the solar industry is on the brink of building very large-scale projects in the next two to three years due to the number of projects currently proposed. Each of these observations is described in greater detail below under "Industry". Already underway, the Company plans to:

Aggregate the large community of fragmented solar entities in an accelerating acquisition strategy with the goal of creating a large balance sheet of solar electricity generation.

Establish thought leadership by networking with, in the view of our management, some of the best-known and highly regarded individuals in the sector, who author white papers, define standards and host webinars at www.PrincipalSolarInstitute.org.

Develop new commercial utility-scale solar projects leveraging our existing partnerships and relationships and those of our Board members and advisors, many of whom have spent decades in management roles within the traditional utility or energy industries, to make introductions to solar project developers, financiers, and utility industry executives with whom we hope to negotiate power purchase agreements ("PPA"), interconnection agreements, and other agreements.

Build an entity capable of creating innovative large-scale solar projects by hiring capable and experienced engineers and engaging developers experienced in the design and construction of large-scale solar projects, both domestically and abroad; by hiring capable executives in accounting, legal, real estate, etc., necessary to manage such an endeavor; and by obtaining financing from commercial banks, non-bank lenders (assuming such financing is available), and one or more public or private offerings of our equity securities in combination sufficient to fund the project.

To date, we have completed the acquisition of four entities (including three solar power production companies), and are in the process of acquiring additional solar projects. We have begun to create what we call the “world’s first distributed solar utility” - although there are many individual solar projects in operation throughout the world, we don’t believe that anyone has previously attempted to bring together multiple, disparate, geographically diverse solar projects under common ownership thereby building a complete utility-scale solar power generation company. Our business plan begins with a rollup strategy. We are in the process of acquiring cash flow positive solar assets from around the country with the goal of consolidating those assets into a distributed generation business. We utilize a partnership strategy that leverages creative deal making expertise and our team of energy industry personnel with significant experience in the industry.

Table Of Contents

Our strategy is to couple fifty collective years of electric utility expertise with business expertise, entrepreneurial innovation, financial know-how and solar engineering to create a new era in electricity generation. The Company hopes to become the recognized leader in solar energy delivery by consolidating a significant share of the fragmented solar market to gain significant momentum and, when grid parity (i.e., solar power being as expensive if not cheaper than traditionally generated energy) has arrived, building large scale projects with an ultimate goal of generating gigawatts (billions of watts or "GW") of cost effective, clean electricity with the goal of stabilizing electrical prices and preserving natural resources.

Acquisitions

As of the date of this Annual Report, the Company has completed the acquisition of three solar power production facilities amounting to just under 3,200 kilowatts ("KW"). Moving forward, management plans to negotiate with entities that manage and own projects in the 10 megawatt (ten million watts or "MW") range up to 100 MW. As the assets under Company management increase, the Company hopes that its resources and market momentum, as well as its access to the public markets, will enable the acquisition of larger entities.

In November 2014, the Company entered into a Membership Interest Purchase Agreement ("MIPA") with Innovative Solar Systems, LLC, a solar developer operating primarily in North Carolina, to acquire Innovative Solar 46, LLC ("IS 46"), the owner of a 78.5mw AC solar project to be built in Hope Mills, North Carolina. IS 46 holds a single and intangible asset, a 15-year PPA with Duke Energy Progress, Inc. IS 46 does not have, nor has it ever had, any other assets, any liabilities, any employees, any revenues, or any operations of any kind. As such, IS 46 is not a "business" as defined in the accounting literature, and it has no historical financial statements. PSI agreed to pay Innovative Solar Systems, LLC $6,280,000 for 100% of the membership interest of IS 46 in a series of payments of approximately $300,000 per month between execution of the MIPA and the financial close (the point at which all project financing is arranged), and a balloon payment at financial close sufficient to having cumulatively paid 70% of the $6,280,000 price. The remaining 30% of the purchase price will be paid in installments of $150,000 per month through the project's commercial operation date. A total of $1,770,000 has been paid to date, and failure by the Company to make any of the future scheduled payments may result in the loss of all payments made through such date. The Company is working with engineering and construction firms on final designs, and the total cost of the project based upon the preliminary work is expected to be approximately $173 million. The Company is in discussion with multiple parties to provide the acquisition, construction, and permanent financing for the project, however, no assurance can be given that adequate financing on terms acceptable, or even available, to the Company will be obtained. Closing of the acquisition is expected to occur no later than June 3, 2015, and construction is expected to be completed in early 2016.

On March 2, 2015, the Company entered into a MIPA with Innovative Solar Systems, LLC, a solar developer operating primarily in North Carolina, to acquire Innovative Solar 42, LLC ("IS 42"), the owner of a 72.9mw AC solar project to be built in Fayetteville, North Carolina. IS 42 holds a single and intangible asset, a 10-year power purchase agreement with Duke Energy Progress, Inc. IS 42 does not have, nor has it ever had, any other assets, any liabilities, any employees, any revenues, or any operations of any kind. As such, IS 42 is not a "business" as defined in the accounting literature, and it has no historical financial statements. PSI agreed to pay Innovative Solar Systems, LLC $5,832,000 for 100% of the membership interest of IS 42 in a series of payments of approximately $300,000 per month between execution of the MIPA and the financial close (the point at which all project financing is arranged), and a balloon payment at financial close sufficient to having cumulatively paid 70% of the $5,832,000 purchase price. The remaining 30% of the purchase price will be paid in installments of $150,000 per month through the project's commercial operation date. A total of $570,000 has been paid to date, and failure by the Company to make any of the future scheduled payments may result in the loss of all payments made through such date. The Company is working with engineering and construction firms on final designs, and the total cost of the project based upon the preliminary work is expected to be approximately $150 million. The Company is in discussion with multiple parties to provide the acquisition, construction, and permanent financing for the project, however, no assurance can be given that adequate financing on terms acceptable, or even available, to the Company will be obtained. Closing of the acquisition is expected to occur no later than August 30, 2015, and construction is expected to be completed in early 2016.

White Papers, Standards and Thought Leadership

Over the past two years, via the acquisition and expansion of the Principal Solar Institute (www.PrincipalSolarInstitute.org) (the Company’s industry website), the Company has become one of the most prolific authors in the solar industry. The Company has produced multiple white papers and dozens of articles on solar and solar-related topics. The Institute also regularly hosts industry experts to conduct valuable and relevant webinars. The long-term goal is to publish an authoritative library of papers and webinars, which will represent a single source and resource for understanding the solar industry. In the fall of 2012, the Company launched the Principal Solar Ratings System, an industry-first ratings system that allows easy, unbiased, comprehensive analysis and comparison of PV modules and solar power generation systems. The Institute built the Ratings system by bringing together a standards committee consisting in the view of our management, of some of the best-known and highly regarded individuals in the sector.

Construction of Commercial Distributed Generation ("DG") Facilities.

Contemporaneous with the on-going acquisition phase of the Company’s growth plan, the Company hopes to selectively and opportunistically build, own and operate solar PV production facilities based on management’s contacts as well as via the relationships and pipeline of partners.

The Company plans to target large commercial enterprises whose facilities can accommodate at least 1 MW of solar on their property and/or offer significant promotional impact for the Company through the target’s well-known brand in its community.

Gigawatt Scale Projects.

Solar energy does not become a serious contender in the industry until power plants can be built which compete with traditional power generation. In order to compete, electricity produced must be priced so that larger plants makes sense, and, just as important, there must be demonstrable evidence from an engineering perspective, that larger plants which can withstand the forces of mother nature for extended periods. Construction on a gigawatt scale must be an engineering project with the ultimate goal of saving critical natural resources and more importantly, dollars. The Company will promote solar energy’s inherent, long-term strategic advantage to generate electricity in a more reliable and redundant distributed mode with the goal of fundamentally mitigating electricity disruptions (brown outs, black outs) that often plague a highly centralized mode of generation (such as we have today in the US). The Company anticipates that each GW scale project will cost approximately $1.70 to $1.80 per watt to construct or approximately $1.70 to $1.80 billion per GW.

The Company has built its management team and Board around the belief that grid parity will happen within the next few years. Pursuant to a report published by GBI Research report, “Solar Photovoltaics Power Market to 2020” (October 2012), grid parity in the United States (on average) will occur between 2014 and 2017. We believe that the desert southwest will become a major resource for the supply of affordable energy to the United States. Company engineering and management has already begun working with its Board of Directors, advisors and legal team to design its very large-scale projects. The desert southwest has the highest number of days with sunshine in the U.S. It is important to note that a 10 megawatt facility (for example) would cost roughly the same amount in New York as it would in the desert southwest, but the facility in the desert would be exposed to more sunshine and would thus generate more electricity and more revenue.

Need for Future Financing

In addition to approximately $173 million in project financing to build and operate the pending acquisition of IS 46, and the $150 million to build IS 42, we need to raise approximately $5,000,000 of funding to satisfy our administrative cash requirements for the next 24 months (as described in greater detail below under “Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” – “Plan of Operations”). Because we do not develop new products, no new cash will be required for product development. Accomplishing our four-pronged strategy will require significant capital, potentially in excess of $1.5 billion. From time-to-time, the Company enters into discussions with various parties regarding non-binding letters of intent; however, each non-binding letter of intent remains subject to significant uncertainties including, among other things, completion of due diligence and arranging both debt and equity financing with third-parties and we can provide no assurances that the transactions contemplated thereby will be completed. We hope to acquire these assets with a combination of debt from lending institutions and equity from investors.

The sale of additional securities, or any future financing by the Company may result in dilution to our stockholders. We cannot assure you, however, that future financing will be available in amounts or on terms acceptable to us, or at all.

Emerging Growth Company

We are and we will remain an "emerging growth company" as defined under the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act (the “JOBS Act”), until the earliest to occur of (i) the last day of the fiscal year during which our total annual revenues equal or exceed $1 billion (subject to adjustment for inflation), (ii) the last day of the fiscal year following the fifth anniversary of our initial public offering, (iii) the date on which we have, during the previous three-year period, issued more than $1 billion in non-convertible debt securities, or (iv) the date on which we are deemed a "large accelerated filer" (with at least $700 million in public float) under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Please refer to discussions under “Risk Factors” below concerning how and when we may lose emerging growth company status and the various exemptions that are available to us.

Pursuant to Section 102 of the JOBS Act, we have provided reduced executive compensation disclosure and have omitted a compensation discussion and analysis from this Annual Report.

In addition, Section 107 of the JOBS Act provides that an “emerging growth company” can take advantage of the extended transition period provided in Section 7(a)(2)(B) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) for complying with new or revised accounting standards. In other words, an emerging growth company can delay the adoption of certain accounting standards until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies. However, we are choosing to “opt out” of such extended transition period and, as a result, we will comply with new or revised accounting standards on the relevant dates on which adoption of such standards is required for non-emerging growth companies. Section 107 of the JOBS Act provides that our decision to opt out of the extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards is irrevocable.

ITEM 2 PROPERTIES

Through our SunGen StepGuys, LLC, wholly-owned subsidiary, we own and operate a roof mounted solar electric generation facility located in Alfred, Maine. The project was designed as a 111 kilowatt DC that is operating at 120/208 volts providing approximately 124,000 kilowatt hours of electricity per year.

Through Powerhouse One, LLC, our 89% owned subsidiary, we own and operate a ground mounted solar electric generation facility consisting of four projects: Lincoln Farm I, II, III and IV (each a separate wholly-owned Tennessee limited liability company), located in Fayetteville, Tennessee. The project was designed as a 3 MW facility providing approximately 4.5 million Kilowatt hours of electricity per year. We have lease agreements in place evidencing our rights to this property which provide for us to pay 4% of the monthly net energy revenues generated by the PV facilities to the lessors, include standard mutual indemnification provisions and extend until November 1, 2031, renewable for two additional periods of five years each (provided that either party does not provide the other at least six months’ notice prior to the end of any then term of their intent to terminate), provided that we can terminate the leases at any time without penalty. See also the description of Solar Leases, below. The leases also include a right of first refusal for lessor to be provided the right to purchase the Company’s facilities in the event the Company desires to sell such systems during the term of the leases. The rights to the leases associated with this property have been pledged to Bridge Bank as collateral for the repayment of the amount owed pursuant to the Loan Agreement, described above under “Description of Business” - “Material Acquisitions” - “Powerhouse One”.

The Company maintains office space located at 211 Ervay, Suite 300 in Dallas, Texas pursuant to a verbal arrangement. Pursuant to the arrangement, we are provided the right to use office space, conference room facilities, presentation areas and kitchen facilities. We believe this lease is not material to the operations of the business.

Solar Leases

The Company's solar arrays sit on properties subject to long-term real estate leases (or similar agreements in the case of a rooftop installation as described above) with initial terms equal to the PPA and having one or more renewal options. Rental payments under the leases vary in type between a percentage of revenue or, in the case of a rooftop installation, no separate charge. The Company's current solar array installations are as follows:

Installation	Location	kWh	Date	Term	Rent
Powerhouse One, LLC	Fayetteville, TN	3,000	Aug 2011	20 yr. + 2 5-yr renewals	4% of revenue

SunGen StepGuys LLC	Alfred, ME	111	Sep 2009	25 yr. + 2 25-yr renewals	None

ITEM 3 LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

Legacy Liabilities

The $1,003,839 of liabilities arising from the reverse merger as shown in the Company’s December 31, 2014, balance sheet, represent long term real estate leases which had been abandoned, general unsecured liabilities, commercial liens, and tax liens filed with various states associated with the Company’s pre-reverse merger operations that were unknowingly assumed in the March 2011 reverse merger transaction (the "Legacy Liabilities"). The statute of limitations for most of such liabilities is five years and for most liens is ten years, subject to renewal at the lien holders’ option, depending upon the jurisdiction. The liens accrue interest at between 8% and 12%. Liabilities not associated with a lien have been accrued based upon management’s estimation of the amount to be paid. Liabilities associated with a lien have been accrued at face value. Management believes all such liabilities are subject to certain indemnification obligations by Pegasus Funds, LLC (and/or its affiliates or related parties) to which (including its assigns) the Company issued 2,138,617 shares of its common stock as part of the reverse merger transaction. As of the date of this Annual Report, and to the best knowledge of the Company, without independent confirmation, Pegasus Funds, LLC (and its related parties) beneficially owns less than 5% of our outstanding Common Stock. However, as the Company is obligor, the Company has recorded the liability. As of the date of this Annual Report, only one lien holder has approached the Company concerning payment. Such lien holder is pursuing the former management of the Company first through litigation. To the extent such lien holder recovers the liability from the former management; the lien against the Company will be reduced.

From time to time, we may become party to litigation or other legal proceedings that we consider to be a part of the ordinary course of our business. We are not currently involved in legal proceedings that could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on our business, prospects, financial condition or results of operations. We may become involved in material legal proceedings in the future.

Sales of Unregistered Securities

In June 2014, the Company issued convertible notes of $250,000 each to two of its Board members, Messrs. Heller and Marmol, to fund deposits on potential future acquisitions. Such potential acquisitions remain subject to significant uncertainties including due diligence, obtaining construction and permanent financing, and negotiating PPAs, developer agreements, and interconnection agreements. The notes bore interest at a rate of 18% per year and matured on December 5, 2014, and all principal and interest was due at maturity. Principal and interest is payable in cash or shares of Common Stock, at the option of the holder, at a conversion price of $1.00 per share. The notes were secured pursuant to a security agreement by the Company's interest in the otherwise unencumbered net cash flow, if any, from the operations of its Powerhouse One subsidiary. The Company may prepay the notes at any time, but the holders of the notes were guaranteed to receive a minimum of six months interest on the notes.

On February 27, 2015 (made effective on the original maturity date), the notes were modified to extend the maturity date to September 30, 2015, to reduce the interest rate from 18% to 12% per annum, and to eliminate all collateral securing the notes. All other aspects of the notes remained unchanged.

On December 1, 2014, Michael Gorton, the Company's Chief Executive Officer, loaned to the Company pursuant to a convertible promissory note the amount of $130,000. The note initially matured on June 30, 2015, bore interest at a rate of 12% per annum, is convertible into shares of our Common Stock at a price of $1.50 per share, and was secured by a claim on proceeds, if any, of a solar project being acquired (IS 46). The notes can be prepaid at any time prior to maturity without penalty. On February 27, 2015, the note was modified to extend the maturity date to September 30, 2015, and eliminate all collateral securing the note. All other aspects of the note remained unchanged.

2013-2015 Private Placement Offering

From May 2013 through October 2014, we sold an aggregate of 5,381,181 shares of our restricted Common Stock (including 3,049,081 already described above) to 15 "accredited investors" (individuals and trusts) at price of $1.00 per share resulting in total proceeds to the Company of $4,072,090 in aggregate. Purchasers in the offering included Guillermo Marmol, our director (200,000 shares); Jeffrey M. Heller, our director (400,000 shares); Brenda Jackson, our director (300,000 shares); Garrett Boone, our director (200,000 shares); and the wife of our CFO, David Pilotte (20,000 shares).

Beginning in November 2014, we sold an aggregate of 932,674 shares of our restricted common stock to seven of our Board members, two current investors, our former CFO, a close relative of our CEO, two business partners of an existing investor, and an investment fund. Each sale was at a price of $1.50 per share resulting in total proceeds to the Company of $1,399,001 in aggregate. Board members participating in the offering included Guillermo Marmol (66,667 shares); Jeffrey M. Heller (116,668 shares); Brenda Jackson (50,001 shares); Garrett Boone (3,334 shares); Ron Seidel (10,000 shares); Margaret Keliher (20,000 shares); and Michael Gorton (26,667 shares).

Short-term Debt

Effective March 2, 2015, we entered into a convertible loan agreement with Alpha Capital Anstalt ("Alpha") to borrow $1,250,000 (the "Loan"). The Loan is convertible into shares of Common Stock at a rate of $1.00 per share, bears interest at a rate of 8.0% per annum, all principal and interest is due on September 2, 2015, and the loan is secured by the assets of the Company and its subsidiaries (excluding Powerhouse One and all interest in its operations, its assets, and proceeds or distributions therefrom). The principal and accrued interest amounts on the Loan are convertible at any time into shares of Common Stock at a rate of $1.00 per share. In connection with the Loan, the Company also granted Alpha 937,500 warrants (the “Warrants”) exercisable at $1.50 per share, certain piggy-back registration rights, cashless exercise privileges and anti-dilution protection on both the Common Stock into which the Loan may convert and for which the Warrants may be exercised under the occurrence of certain events.

All of the above mentioned securities were issued pursuant the private placement exemption available under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

ITEM 7

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

Comparison of Operating Results

Year Ended December 31, 2014 and 2013

(all amounts rounded)

Power generation revenue was $975 thousand in 2014 compared to $487 thousand in 2013, and cost of revenues were $553 thousand (57% of revenue) and $314 thousand (64% of revenue), respectively. The increased revenues and increased cost of revenues in 2014 compared to 2013 were driven almost entirely by the acquisition of Powerhouse One in June 2013, and the fact that 2014 included a full year of its operations.

The increase in general and administrative expenses of approximately $1.0 million was comprised of increased equity compensation expense of $839 thousand resulting from option grants to executives, members of the Board of Directors, contractors, and advisors; increased consulting fees of $288 thousand resulting from the an upgrade at the CFO's role and expanded workload pursuant to an hourly contract; increased accounting fees of $62 thousand resulting from the outsourcing of accounting to meet a higher workload; increased accounting and legal fees of $102 thousand resulting from multiple amendments and a prolonged review period of a registration statement; increased investor relations/public relations expense of $41 thousand resulting from the initiation of investor relations efforts; increased due diligence expenses of $70 thousand resulting in the pending acquisition of IS 46; increased franchise taxes of $33 thousand resulting from reincorporating in Delaware; offset by a reduced acquisition costs of $266 thousand resulting primarily from the 2013 acquisition of Powerhouse One; reduced amortization expenses of $110 thousand resulting from the website becoming fully depreciated in 2013; and other increases and decreases netting to approximately $43 thousand increase.

Interest expense increased to $504 thousand in 2014 from $308 thousand in 2013, an increase of $196 thousand (64%). The increase was comprised of $151 thousand increase in expense for the acquisition note payable incurred in connection the 2013 acquisition of Powerhouse One outstanding for a full year versus 6.5 months in 2013; and $53 thousand resulting form the June and December 2014 issuances of convertible notes payable to related parties including members of the Board of Directors; offset by reductions in other interest bearing items totaling $8 thousand.

In 2013 we recorded a $102 thousand expense for the inducement for conversion of notes payable relating to the value in the decrease of the conversion price of certain outstanding convertible notes from $1.70 per share to $1.00 per share in May 2013, and an impairment charge of $114 thousand resulting from the decision to uninstall the Mill 77 project.

The Company had a net loss attributable to common stockholders of $3.4 million in 2014, compared to a loss of $2.4 million in 2013, an increase of $1.0 million or 42% from the prior period, due to the changes described above.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Sources of Liquidity and Trends In Liquidity

Other than funds acquired recently through the private placements of debt and equity securities and our repeatedly demonstrated ability to raise capital, we are not aware of any trends that are expected to result in either an increase in our liquidity. Cash flows from existing revenue sources do not cover the costs of administering our business and our monthly net cash flow, excluding the payment of $600,000 per month due to the acquisitions in progress, reflects a deficit of between $150,000 and $200,000 each month. We also expect the need for additional funds to increase as we seek additional acquisitions and become a fully-reporting public company (which will increase our quarterly operating expenses in connection with costs relating to the preparation of and filing of periodic reports, financial statements and other disclosures and filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, which we estimate in the amount of $100,000 per quarter).

As is typical in early-stage companies, our liquidity and capital resources are limited. As such, we are highly dependent upon our ability to raise money in one or more private placements of securities in order to continue our operations and pursue our business plan. Though we can provide no assurance of our ability to acquire funding in the future, management has historically demonstrated an ability to acquire funds through the private placement of our securities. If we are unable to acquire additional funding to support our ongoing funding requirements, we may be required to curtail or cease operations.

To date, we have funded our operations primarily through private placements of common stock and convertible debt securities. Since the date of the reverse merger with Principal Solar Texas, we have sold 7,985,603 shares of our common stock for aggregate proceeds of $7,953,041. These sales of our common stock reflect issuance prices ranging from $0.55 to $1.69 per share (weighted average of approximately $1.00). Although we have successfully financed our operations through the issuance of common stock to date, we cannot be assured that we will be able to continue to be successful in financing our operations in the future.

Table Of Contents

Like the most recent acquisition (Powerhouse One), future acquisitions are expected to be separately financed and self-supporting from a cash flow perspective. As such, proceeds from the recent private placements of our equity securities are used primarily to support the Company's administrative needs and due diligence efforts in furtherance of its business plan.

Long-term Debt

Effective June 17, 2013, the Company closed an acquisition agreement with Vis Solis, Inc., and AstroSol, Inc., co-sellers of Powerhouse One, LLC, whereby 89% of the outstanding membership interest of Powerhouse was exchanged for $6,200,000 in cash. Powerhouse owns and operates a ground mounted solar electric generation facility consisting of four projects: Lincoln Farm I, II, III and IV (each a separate wholly-owned Tennessee limited liability company), located in Fayetteville, Tennessee. The project was designed as a 3 MW facility providing approximately 4.5 million Kilowatt hours of electricity per year.

In connection with the acquisition, Powerhouse, and certain of its subsidiaries, entered into a Loan and Security Agreement with Bridge Bank, NA (“Bridge Bank” and the “Loan Agreement”). Pursuant to the Loan Agreement, Powerhouse borrowed $5,050,000 from Bridge Bank, which bears interest at 7.5% per annum, with monthly interest payable in arrears, and certain amortization payments due quarterly in an amount of between $55,514 to $77,574 (increasing during the term of the loan). The amount borrowed under the Loan Agreement was used to pay the purchase price of the Powerhouse acquisition. The amount borrowed under the Loan Agreement is due on the fourth anniversary of the loan date (June 17, 2017), can be prepaid at any time with thirty (30) days prior written notice, provided that an additional 7% of the principal amount of the loan is due if the loan is repaid within the first year of the loan, 6% is due if repaid within the second year of the loan, 5% is due if the loan is repaid within the third year of the loan and no additional amount is due if repaid three years from the date of the loan. The Loan Agreement required a commitment fee of 1% of the loan amount, an underwriting fee of 1.75% of the loan amount and a yearly annual portfolio management fee of 0.16% of the amount outstanding under the loan. Pursuant to the Loan Agreement and a separate Pledge and Security Agreement, all of the membership interests of Powerhouse and all of the assets of Powerhouse were pledged as security to secure the repayment of the loan. The Loan Agreement requires certain affirmative and negative covenants, including requiring Powerhouse to maintain a debt coverage ratio of not less than 1.10:1, measured quarterly following the first anniversary of the debt. The debt also restricts the payment of dividends, and it is secured by all the assets of Powerhouse, guaranteed by Principal Solar, Inc., and is further secured by a pledge by Principal Solar, Inc. of its membership interest in Powerhouse.

Effective June 17, 2013, we granted a warrant to purchase 151,050 shares of our common stock to Bridge Bank in connection with the acquisition of Powerhouse. The warrant has an exercise price of $1.00 per share, cashless exercise rights, redemption rights providing the Company the right to redeem the warrant for $604,200, anti-dilution rights associated with offerings of equity securities, a term expiring on the first to occur, of the 10 year anniversary of the grant, the closing of the Company’s initial public offering, or the liquidation of the Company (each a “Termination Event”), and the warrant is automatically exercised on a cashless basis upon a Termination Event. The Company also provided the holder registration rights in connection with the grant of the warrant.

Acquisition of IS 46, LLC (in progress)

In November 2014, the Company entered into a MIPA with Innovative Solar Systems, LLC, a solar developer operating primarily in North Carolina, to acquire IS 46, the owner of a 78.5mw AC solar project to be built in Hope Mills, North Carolina. IS 46 holds a single and intangible asset, a 15-year PPA with Duke Energy Progress, Inc. IS 46 does not have, nor has it ever had, any other assets, any liabilities, any employees, any revenues, or any operations of any kind. As such, IS 46 is not a "business" as defined in the accounting literature, and it has no historical financial statements. PSI agreed to pay Innovative Solar Systems, LLC $6,280,000 for 100% of the membership interest of IS 46 in a series of payments of approximately $300,000 per month between execution of the MIPA and the financial close (the point at which all project financing is arranged), and a balloon payment at financial close sufficient to having cumulatively paid 70% of the $6,280,000 price. The remaining 30% of the purchase price will be paid in installments of $150,000 per month through the project's commercial operation date. A total of $1,770,000 has been paid to date, and failure by the Company to make any of the future scheduled payments may result in the loss of all payments made through such date. The Company is working with engineering and construction firms on final designs, and the total cost of the project based upon the preliminary work is expected to be approximately $173 million. The Company is in discussion with multiple parties to provide the acquisition, construction, and permanent financing for the project, however, no assurance can be given that adequate financing on terms acceptable, or even available, to the Company will be obtained. Closing of the acquisition is expected to occur no later than June 3, 2015, and construction is expected to be completed in early 2016.

Acquisition of IS 42, LLC (pending)

On March 2, 2015, the Company entered into a MIPA with Innovative Solar Systems, LLC, a solar developer operating primarily in North Carolina, to acquire Innovative Solar 42, LLC ("IS 42"), the owner of a 72.9mw AC solar project to be built in Fayetteville, North Carolina. IS 42 holds a single and intangible asset, a 10-year power purchase agreement ("PPA") with Duke Energy Progress, Inc. IS 42 does not have, nor has it ever had, any other assets, any liabilities, any employees, any revenues, or any operations of any kind. As such, IS 42 is not a "business" as defined in the accounting literature, and it has no historical financial statements. PSI agreed to pay Innovative Solar Systems, LLC $5,832,000 for 100% of the membership interest of IS 42 in a series of payments of approximately $300,000 per month between execution of the MIPA and the financial close (the point at which all project financing is arranged), and a balloon payment at financial close sufficient to having cumulatively paid 70% of the $5,832,000 purchase price. The remaining 30% of the purchase price will be paid in installments of $150,000 per month through the project's commercial operation date. A total of $570,000 has been paid to date, and failure by the Company to make any of the future scheduled payments may result in the loss of all payments made through such date. The Company is working with engineering and construction firms on final designs, and the total cost of the project based upon the preliminary work is expected to be approximately $150 million.

Possible Violations of the Securities Act of 1933

The Company may have contingent liability arising out of possible violations of the Securities Act in connection with the presentation which we furnished as Exhibit 99.1 to our Current Report on Form 8-K, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 5, 2014. Specifically, the furnishing of the presentation publicly may have constituted an “offer to sell” as described in Section 5(c) of the Securities Act. Any liability would depend upon the number of shares purchased by investors who reviewed such presentation that may have constituted a violation of Section 5 of the Securities Act. If a claim were brought by any such ‘recipients’ of such presentation and a court were to conclude that the public disclosure of such presentation constituted a violation of Section 5 of the Securities Act, we could be required to repurchase the shares sold to the investors who reviewed such presentation at the original purchase price, plus statutory interest from the date of purchase, for claims brought during a period of one year from the date of their purchase of common stock. We could also incur considerable expense in contesting any such claims. As of the date of this Annual Report, no legal proceedings or claims have been made or threatened by any investors in the Company’s offering. Such payments and expenses, if required, could significantly reduce the amount of working capital we have available for our operations and business plan, delay or prevent us from completing our plan of operations, or force us to raise additional funding, which funding may not be available on favorable terms, if at all. See also the “Risk Factor” entitled “We may have contingent liability arising out of possible violations of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, in connection with the presentation which we furnished as Exhibit 99.1 to our Current Report on Form 8-K, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 5, 2014, herein.

ITEM 8 FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTARY DATA

The financial statements and schedules are listed in Part IV, Item 15 of this Form 10-K and are incorporated by reference herein.

ITEM 9A CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act") is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported, within the time period specified in the SEC's rules and forms and is accumulated and communicated to the Company's management, as appropriate, in order to allow timely decisions in connection with required disclosure.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

The Company's principal executive officer and its principal financial officer carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of December 31, 2014, pursuant to Exchange Act Rule 13a-15. Such disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company is accumulated and communicated to the appropriate management on a basis that permits timely decisions regarding disclosure. Based upon that evaluation, the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded the Company's disclosure controls and procedures as of December 31, 2014, were effective.

Management's Report On Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Management of the Company is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act. The Company's internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP"). The Company's internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that:

●

pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the Company;

Table Of Contents

●

provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP, and that receipts and expenditures of the Company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the Company; and

●

provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the Company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

In connection with the preparation of our annual financial statements, we have assessed the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2014, based on criteria established in Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission, or the COSO Framework (2013). Our assessment included an evaluation of the design of our internal control over financial reporting and testing of the operational effectiveness of those controls.

Based upon our evaluation, we have determined that, as of December 31, 2014, there were material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting. As defined by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) Auditing Standard No. 5, a material weakness is a deficiency or a combination of deficiencies, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected. The material weaknesses identified during management’s assessment were (i) a lack of segregation of duties to ensure adequate review of financial transactions, (ii) a lack of written policies and procedures surrounding the accumulation and summarization of financial transactions, and (iii) a lack of documentation evidencing the controls that do exist were operating effectively. In light of these material weaknesses, management has concluded that, as of December 31, 2014, the Company did not maintain effective internal control over financial reporting.

During 2014, our accounting staff consisted of a single individual, our Chief Financial Officer, and an outsourced accounting function. In order to improve the lack of segregation of duties in the future, we may add to our accounting staff, but only modestly. Except for purposes of building and maintaining an environment of strong internal controls over financial reporting, our business model does not require an accounting staff beyond two or three individuals; however, we retain an independent contractor with extensive financial accounting and reporting experience to assist us in the preparation of our reports filed with the SEC. As such, the Company may never achieve an effective control environment completely lacking of material control weaknesses.

Changes In Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting during the fourth quarter of the year ended December 31, 2014, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Limitations on the Effectiveness of Controls

The Company’s disclosure controls and procedures provide the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer with reasonable assurances that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures will achieve their objectives. However, the Company’s management does not expect that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures or the Company’s internal control over financial reporting can or will prevent all human error. A control system, no matter how well designed and implemented, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Furthermore, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are internal resource constraints, and the benefit of controls must be weighed relative to their corresponding costs. Because of the limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide complete assurance that all control issues and instances of error, if any, within the Company’s company are detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur due to human error or mistake. Additionally, controls, no matter how well designed, could be circumvented by the individual acts of specific persons within the organization. The design of any system of controls is also based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated objectives under all potential future conditions.

We are a smaller reporting company and are required to comply with the internal control reporting and disclosure requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act for fiscal years ending on or after July 15, 2007. Although we are working to comply with these requirements, we have limited financial personnel making compliance with Section 404 - especially with segregation of duty control requirements – very difficult, if not impossible, and cost prohibitive. While the SEC has indicated it expects to issue supplementary regulations easing the burden of Section 404 requirements for small entities like us, such regulations have not yet been issued.

Attestation Report of the Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

This report does not include an attestation report of our independent registered public accounting firm regarding our internal controls over financial reporting. Under SEC rules, such attestation is not required for smaller reporting companies.

Risk Oversight

Effective risk oversight is an important priority of the Board of Directors. Because risks are considered in virtually every business decision, the Board of Directors discusses risk throughout the year generally or in connection with specific proposed actions. The Board of Directors’ approach to risk oversight includes understanding the critical risks in the Company’s business and strategy, evaluating the Company’s risk management processes, allocating responsibilities for risk oversight among the full Board of Directors, and fostering an appropriate culture of integrity and compliance with legal responsibilities.

Election of Directors and Vacancies

The Company’s Bylaws provide that the Board of Directors has the sole authority to determine the number of members of the Board of Directors of the Company. There are no agreements with respect to the election of directors. Our Bylaws further provide that vacancies on our Board of Directors may be filled by the affirmative vote of a majority of the remaining directors even if such majority is less than a quorum, or by the plurality of votes cast at a meeting of stockholders.

Indemnification

Section 102(b)(7) of the Delaware General Corporation Law (“DGCL”) provides that a corporation may, in its original certificate of incorporation or an amendment thereto, eliminate or limit the personal liability of a director for violations of the director’s fiduciary duty, except (1) for any breach of the director’s duty of loyalty to the corporation or its stockholders, (2) for acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (3) pursuant to Section 174 of the DGCL, which provides for liability of directors for unlawful payments of dividends or unlawful stock purchases or redemptions or (4) for any transaction from which a director derived an improper personal benefit. Our certificate of incorporation provides for such limitation of liability.

Section 145 of the DGCL provides that a corporation may indemnify any person, including an officer or director, who is, or is threatened to be made, party to any threatened, pending or completed legal action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, other than an action by or in the right of such corporation, by reason of the fact that such person was an officer, director, employee or agent of such corporation or is or was serving at the request of such corporation as an officer, director, employee or agent of another corporation or enterprise. The indemnity may include expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with such action, suit or proceeding, provided such officer, director, employee or agent acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the corporation’s best interest and, for criminal proceedings, had no reasonable cause to believe that his conduct was unlawful. A Delaware corporation may indemnify any officer or director in an action by or in the right of the corporation under the same conditions, except that no indemnification is permitted without judicial approval if the officer or director is adjudged to be liable to the corporation. Where an officer or director is successful on the merits or otherwise in the defense of any action referred to above, the corporation must indemnify him against the expenses that such officer or director actually and reasonably incurred. Our certificate of incorporation provides for the indemnification of directors to the fullest extent permissible under Delaware law.

Our Bylaws provide for the indemnification of officers, directors and other agents acting on our behalf if this person is not adjudged guilty of willful nonfeasance, misfeasance or malfeasance in the performance of his duties.

Additionally, in the future, we may purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of us and any person who is or was a director or officer against any loss arising from any claim asserted against him or her and incurred by him or her in that capacity, subject to certain exclusions and limits of the amount of coverage we ultimately obtain. Neither our Bylaws nor our certificate of incorporation include any specific indemnification provisions for our officers or directors against liability under the Securities Act. Additionally, insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the Company pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Company has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.

SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT AND RELATED STOCKHOLDERS MATTERS

The following table presents certain information regarding the beneficial ownership of shares of common stock as of the date of this Annual Report by (i) each person who owns beneficially more than five percent (5%) of the outstanding shares of common stock based on 22,033,274 shares outstanding as of the date of this Annual Report, (ii) each of our directors, (iii) each named executive officer and (iv) all directors and officers as a group. Except as otherwise indicated, all shares are owned directly.

Beneficial ownership is determined in accordance with the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission and includes voting and/or investing power with respect to securities.

Additionally, shares of common stock subject to options, warrants or other convertible securities that are currently exercisable or convertible, or exercisable or convertible within 60 days of the date of this Annual Report, are deemed to be outstanding and to be beneficially owned by the person or group holding such options, warrants or other convertible securities for the purpose of computing the percentage ownership of such person or group, but are not treated as outstanding for the purpose of computing the percentage ownership of any other person or group.

The address for each of our directors and named executive officers is 2700 Fairmount, Dallas, Texas 75201.

Equity Compensation Plan Information

In January 2012, the Board approved an option pool of 2,864,359 shares (20% of the then outstanding common stock) to be awarded to officers, Directors, contractors and advisors, each contributing to the further development of the business. This pool of shares was not documented in writing.

2014 Equity Incentive Plan

In June 2014, the Company's Board of Directors approved the 2014 Equity Incentive Plan ("Plan") providing for the future issuance of options, restricted stock, performance units, share appreciation rights, and similar equity incentive-type awards for officers, Board members, employees, and advisors to the Company. All options previously issued outside of a written plan were adopted by the 2014 Equity Incentive Plan and shall be governed thereafter by the Plan. The newly formed Plan also adopted the previously approved Pool of shares.

The following table provides information as of December 31, 2014, regarding the Pool under which equity securities are authorized for issuance:

ITEM 13 CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS AND DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCE

In March 2011, the Company paid approximately $89,007 to Pegasus Funds LLC (“Pegasus”) and issued two shares of Series A Super Voting Preferred Stock (the “Series A Preferred Stock”) for finding a public shell company and for structuring the Principal Solar Exchange Agreement and as compensation for monies paid by Pegasus in connection with the renewal of the Company’s charter. The designation of the Series A Preferred Stock was never filed with the Secretary of State of New York (see also the risk factor in our Prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) on February 4, 2015, entitled “We believe that certain prior corporate actions undertaken by us pursuant to the purported authority and approval of our preferred stock holders, including our March 2011 reverse stock split, were completed without effective stockholder approval and in violation of state statutes”). The Series A Preferred Stock had the terms and conditions described above under “Description of Business” – “Organizational History” – “Exchange Agreement”.

Table Of Contents

In connection with the March 7, 2011, Exchange Agreement (described in greater detail above under “Description of Business” – “Organizational History” – “Exchange Agreement”), we issued 10,595,389 shares of our common stock to the stockholders of Principal Solar Texas in exchange for 100% of the outstanding shares of Principal Solar Texas (which was later merged with and into us in April 2011) and 2,138,617 shares of the Company’s common stock in connection with the Preferred Stock Exchange to Pegasus Funds LLC and its assigns (“Pegasus”). Included in the shareholders of Principal Solar Texas who exchanged their shares for shares of the Company were our Chief Executive Officer and Chairman, Michael Gorton (2,125,266 shares, 200,000 of which were subsequently transferred in a private transaction), Kenneth G. Allen, our Chief Operations Officer (1,468,365 shares), R. Michael Martin, our Executive Vice President of Business Development (834,183 shares), Jorge Aizcorbe, our consultant on Business Development (620,000 shares), Ronald B. Seidel, our director (133,879 shares), Carl Hefton, who at the time was a director of the Company (118,728 shares), Richard Borry, our current consultant (250,000 shares); Dan Bedell (250,000 shares) our Executive Vice President of Strategic and Corporate Development; Richard Kang, our former Chief Financial Officer (574,346 shares); Aaron Cother, our former Chief Financial Officer (100,000 shares); Shelly Gorton, the wife of our Chief Executive Officer, Michael Gorton (75,849 shares); and Margaret Keliher, our director (56,000 shares).

The 2,138,617 shares of common stock issued to Pegasus were issued in exchange for the two shares of Series A Preferred Stock held by Pegasus. We relied on an exemption from registration afforded by Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act for the conversions, as the securities were exchanged by the Company with its existing security holder exclusively in transactions where no commission or other remuneration was paid or given directly or indirectly for soliciting such exchange.

In November and December 2011, we sold an aggregate of 1,018,410 shares of restricted common stock to 19 individuals and entities in private transactions for $1.41 per share. Persons purchasing shares in the offering included Steuben, a greater than 5% stockholder of the Company (709,220 shares), the wife of Mr. Gorton, our Chief Executive Officer and Chairman (70,922 shares), Margaret Keliher, our director (21,277 shares), Ronald B. Seidel, our director (17,731 shares), the wife of Mr. Allen, our Chief Operations Officer (17,731 shares), the wife of Mr. Martin, our Executive Vice President of Business Development (17,731 shares), the wife of Mr. Bedell, our Executive Vice President of Strategic and Corporate Development (4,433 shares), the wife of Mr. Kang, our former CFO (17,731 shares), and a trust owned by Rick Borry, our current consultant (8,000 shares).

In February 2012, we sold an aggregate of 32,622 shares of our restricted common stock to 10 individuals for $1.41 per share in a private offering. Persons purchasing shares included R. Michael Martin, our Executive Vice President of Business Development (2,482 shares), Ronald B. Seidel, our director (3,546 shares), Hunter L. Hunt, our former director (7,092 shares), John R. Harris, our former director (3,546 shares), and Everett Gorton, the father of our Chief Executive Officer, Michael Gorton (1,418 shares).

In June 2012, we sold 591,716 shares of our restricted common stock to Steuben Investment Company II, L.P., a greater than 5% stockholder for an aggregate of $1,000,000 or $1.69 per share in a private transaction. The Company claims an exemption from registration afforded by Section 4(2) of and Rule 506 of the Securities Act since the foregoing issuance/grant did not involve a public offering, the recipient took the securities for investment and not resale, the Company took appropriate measures to restrict transfer, and the recipient was an “accredited investor”. No underwriters or agents were involved in the foregoing issuances and the Company paid no underwriting discounts or commissions.

During November 2012, the Company sold unsecured convertible notes in the aggregate amount $17,000 to Jorge Aizcorbe, our consultant on Business Development ($5,000), Aaron Cother, who was then serving as CFO of the Company ($2,000), and Matthew Thompson, our employee ($10,000). The convertible notes accrued interest at 12% per annum, were due in November 2013 and were convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock at maturity in the option of the holder at a conversion price of $1.70 per share.

During March 2013 the Company sold unsecured convertible notes in the aggregate amount of $21,000 to Michael Gorton, our Chief Executive Officer ($5,000), Kenneth G. Allen, our Chief Operations Officer ($5,000), R. Michael Martin, our Executive Vice President of Business Development ($2,000), and the wife of Mr. Gorton ($9,000). The convertible notes (as amended) accrued interest at 18% per annum, were due in March 2014 and were convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock at maturity in the option of the holder at a conversion price of $1.70 per share. As described below in May 2013, the conversion price of the notes was reduced to $1.00 per share and all of the notes and accrued interest of $966 were converted into shares of the Company’s restricted common stock.

Table Of Contents

In May 2013, the conversion price of all of the unsecured convertible notes sold by the Company in November 2012, January 2013 and March 2013 was reduced to $1.00 per share and all of the notes totaling $138,000 and accrued interest thereon of $7,990 were converted into 145,990 restricted shares of the Company’s common stock. Shares of our restricted common stock were issued to the following related parties in connection with the conversions: Michael Gorton, our Chief Executive Officer (5,230 shares), Kenneth G. Allen, our Chief Operations Officer (5,230 shares), R. Michael Martin, our Executive Vice President of Business Development (2,092 shares), the wife of Mr. Gorton (9,414 shares), Jorge Aizcorbe, our consultant on Business Development (5,301), Aaron Cother, who was then serving as CFO (2,120 shares) and Matthew Thompson, our employee (10,603 shares). Additionally, in January 2013, a note held by the private investor was converted into common stock as well.

From May through September 2013, we sold an aggregate of 900,000 shares of our restricted common stock to three individuals for $1.00 per share or $900,000 in aggregate. Purchasers in the offering included Brenda Jackson, our director (200,000 shares), and Jeffrey M. Heller, our director (200,000 shares).

In May and September 2013, the Company granted options to purchase up to 528,000 shares of the Company’s common stock to members of the Company’s Board of Directors and advisors to the Company. The options have an exercise price ranging from of $1.00 to $1.70 per share, various vesting schedules not exceeding two years from the date of grant and a term of ten years (subject, where applicable, to the continued service of the optionholder with the Company). Included in the grants were Hunter L. Hunt, our former director; Margaret Keliher, our director; Ronald B. Seidel, our director; and John R. Harris, our former director with each receiving options to purchase 72,000 shares including options to purchase 48,000 shares vesting immediately and the remaining 24,000 vesting over the following eight months; and Jeffrey M. Heller, our director and Brenda Jackson, our director, with each receiving options to purchase 72,000 shares vesting over the following 24 months. Each of the director's options has an exercise price of $1.00 per share.

Effective June 14, 2013, the Company entered into a Subscription Agreement with Steuben Investment Company II, L.P. Pursuant to the subscription agreement, Steuben purchased 2,909,091 shares of the Company’s common stock for an aggregate of $1,600,000 or $0.55 per share. As additional consideration in connection with the subscription, the Company granted Steuben warrants to purchase 2,181,818 shares of the Company’s common stock with an exercise price of $1.00 per share and a term of 10 years. The Company also provided Steuben registration rights. Pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, the Company was obligated to file a registration statement and to take all necessary actions to maintain the availability for Steuben to sell its securities pursuant to Rule 144 for a period ending two years from the date the registration statement became effective, February 3, 2015. If the company fails to take all necessary actions to maintain the availability to Steuben of Rule 144 for a period ending February 3, 2017, the Company may be obligated to pay to Steuben a penalty of $216,000, thus negatively impacting its cash and its results of operations.

In November 2014, all 2,181,818 warrants held by Steuben and described above were exercised by the holder in a cashless transaction as provided for in the warrant agreement. Based upon a share valuation of $1.50 per share determined by the Company's Board of Directors based upon concurrent issuances, the exercise of warrants to acquire 2,181,818 shares of Common Stock on a cashless basis resulted in a net issuance to Steuben of 727,273 shares of Common Stock. The final settlement of the liability upon exercise resulted in a gain of $32,239 recognized in 2014.

Effective June 17, 2013, we granted a warrant to purchase 151,050 shares of our common stock to Bridge Bank, National Association in connection with the acquisition of Powerhouse (as described in greater detail above under “Description of Business” – “Material Acquisitions” – “Powerhouse One”). The warrant has an exercise price of $1.00 per share, cashless exercise rights, redemption rights providing the Company the right to redeem the warrant for $604,200, anti-dilution rights associated with offerings of equity securities, a term expiring on the first to occur, of the 10 year anniversary of the grant, the closing of the Company’s initial public offering, or the liquidation of the Company (each a “Termination Event”), and the warrant is automatically exercised on a cashless basis upon a Termination Event. The Company also provided the holder registration rights in connection with the grant of the warrant.

2013-2015 Private Placement Offering -- From May 2013 through October 2014, we sold an aggregate of 5,431,181 shares of our restricted common stock to 15 "accredited investors" (individuals and trusts) at price of $1.00 per share resulting in total proceeds to the Company of $4,072,090 in aggregate. Purchasers in the offering included Guillermo Marmol, our director (200,000 shares); Jeffrey M. Heller, our director (400,000 shares); Brenda Jackson, our director (300,000 shares); Garrett Boone, our director (200,000 shares); and the wife of our CFO, David Pilotte (20,000 shares).

Beginning in November 2014, we sold an aggregate of 599,340 shares of our restricted common stock to seven of our Board members, two current investors, our former CFO, a close relative of our CEO, and two business partners of an existing investor. Each sale was at a price of $1.50 per share resulting in total proceeds to the Company of $899,000 in aggregate. Board members participating in the offering included Guillermo Marmol (66,667 shares); Jeffrey M. Heller (116,668 shares); Brenda Jackson (50,001 shares); Garrett Boone (3,334 shares); Ron Seidel (10,000 shares); Margaret Keliher (20,000 shares); and Michael Gorton (26,667 shares).

Certain members of the management team have deferred payment of their compensation for the benefit of the Company. No formal terms of payment have been established. The amounts payable as of December 31, 2014, December 31, 2013, and December 31, 2012 were $722,044, $559,998, and $305,322, respectively.

In June 2014, the Company re-priced 96,000 options granted to independent advisors between February 2012 and September 2012. The options, originally issued having exercise prices ranging from $1.41 to $1.71 per share, were re-priced to $1.00 per share. Because of the small change in inputs to the Black-Scholes model since they were initially issued (especially volatility), there was no expense recorded in connection with this action.

Pursuant to its 2014 Equity Incentive Plan, during the period June through October 2014, the Company granted to its key executives, independent contractors, new Board members, and one key advisor (our former CFO), options to acquire 1,229,026 shares of its Common Stock. The options have an exercise price of $1.00 per share and have expiration dates of 5 years for the advisor and 10 years for key executives, independent contractors, and Board members. Vesting ranges from (i) immediately upon grant for non-employee executives and independent contractors with extended expiration privileges based upon their continued services to the Company, (ii) 24 months for Board members starting when they joined the Board, and (iii) 36 months for employees. All options were valued using the Black-Scholes options pricing model and resulted in an expense of $1,044,130 recognized during 2014.

Review, Approval and Ratification of Related Party Transactions

Given our small size and limited financial resources, we have not adopted formal policies and procedures for the review, approval or ratification of transactions, such as those described above, with our executive officers, directors and significant stockholders. However, all of the transactions described above were approved and ratified by our officers and/or directors. In connection with the approval of the transactions described above, our officers and/or directors took into account various factors, including their fiduciary duty to the Company; the relationships of the related parties described above to the Company; the material facts underlying each transaction; the anticipated benefits to the Company and related costs associated with such benefits; whether comparable products or services were available; and the terms the Company could receive from an unrelated third party.

We intend to establish formal policies and procedures in the future, once we have sufficient resources and have appointed additional directors, so that such transactions will be subject to the review, approval or ratification of our Board of Directors, or an appropriate committee thereof. On a moving forward basis, our officers and directors will continue to approve any related party transaction based on the criteria set forth above.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders

Principal Solar, Inc.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Principal Solar, Inc. and subsidiaries (the “Company”), as of December 31, 2014 and 2013, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ equity (deficit), and cash flows for the years then ended. The Company’s management is responsible for these consolidated financial statements. 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 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 the Company as of December 31, 2014 and 2013, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the entity will continue as a going concern. The Company has negative cash flows from operating activities, negative working capital, and an accumulated deficit of $10.5 million as of December 31, 2014. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are described in Note 1. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. These consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1 - OVERVIEW

The Company

Principal Solar, Inc. (“PSI”, the “Company”, “our”, “us”, or “we”) was incorporated on July 8, 2010, under the laws of the State of Texas and became a New York corporation upon consummation of a reverse merger. On March 7, 2011, the Company was acquired by Kupper Parker Communications, Inc. (“KPCG”), then a public shell company, in a reverse merger transaction whereby KPCG merged with and into PSI, with KPCG remaining as the surviving corporation and PSI becoming a wholly owned subsidiary of KPCG. In connection with the merger, the Company changed its corporate name from “Kupper Parker Communications, Inc.” to “Principal Solar, Inc.” In accordance with the terms of this transaction, the shareholders of PSI exchanged all of their shares of PSI's $.01 par value common stock ("Common Stock") for shares of KPCG common stock that, immediately following the transaction, represented approximately 82 percent of the issued and outstanding Common Stock of the Company.

In October 2012, the Company was re-domiciled in Delaware. The Company is authorized to issue 300,000,000 shares of Common Stock and 100,000,000 shares of preferred stock with a par value of $0.01 per share ("Preferred Stock").

PSI is traded on the OTCPink^®market under the symbol "PSWW".

PSI is a renewable energy company with the goal of becoming a leading utility-scale solar power generating company. Power generated by the Company can be sold to the "power grid" through traditional utility companies under long-term fixed or escalating price power purchase agreements ("PPA"). In this instance, the buyer agrees to take all power produced by the Company for the period of the PPA, generally 10-20 years. Alternatively, the power can be sold to one or more industrial users ("merchants") either under a PPA or at market rates. More than 96% of power generation revenues in 2014 were generated under an index-priced PPA having a fixed premium of $0.12 per kilowatt-hour (“kWh”) over the GSA-1 scheduled rate (currently approximately $0.10 per kWh) through 2021, and a market rate based upon the then current GSA-1 scheduled rate for the remaining 10 years of the initial 20 year term ending in 2031. The remainder (3%) was generated under a single-merchant Energy Management Services Agreement at a 10% discount to the prevailing market prices in the area. Though the level of power generation is highly predictable over time, shorter-term variations do occur.

As with any long-term contract, the ability of the counterparty to perform its obligations under a PPA is of significant importance. The Company evaluates the strength, stability, and longevity of the counterparty relative to the obligation under the PPA before entering into such an agreement, and periodically reevaluates its initial assessment.

PSI intends to establish itself as a leading solar power company using a 4-pronged approach:

Acquire existing small and medium sized solar power generating companies in a roll-up strategy using a combination of cash and shares of its Common Stock. The goal of acquiring multiple generating companies is to build the world's first distributed solar generating utility.

Establish thought leadership by networking well-respected thinkers who will author technical white papers and host interactive webinars at www.principalsolarinstitute.org.

Implement, opportunistically, new commercial solar projects utilizing our new partnerships and relationships.

Build an entity capable of winning bids for gigawatt-scale projects around the world based on solid economics. This is the longer-term phase 2 of the Company's plan.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. ("GAAP") and the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of the periods presented have been reflected herein.

F-7

Table Of Contents

Going Concern

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. As of December 31, 2014, the Company has an accumulated deficit of approximately $10.5 million, and the Company has had negative cash flows from operations since inception. Its ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the ability of the Company to obtain the necessary financing, likely through the continued sale of its equity and equity-linked securities, to meet its obligations and pay its liabilities arising from normal business operations when they come due. The outcome of these matters cannot be predicted with any certainty at this time and raise substantial doubt that the Company will be able to continue as a going concern. These consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to the amounts and classification of assets and liabilities that may be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

Concentration

In 2014 and 2013, more than 96% of our consolidated power generation revenue arose from our Powerhouse One solar installation under an index-priced PPA having a fixed premium of $0.12 per kilowatt-hour over the GSA-1 scheduled rate (currently approximately $0.10 per kWh) through 2021, and a market rate based upon the then current GSA-1 scheduled rate for the remaining 10 years of the initial 20 year term ending in 2031. The buyer and counterparty of the PPA is Fayetteville Public Utility of Lincoln County Tennessee. A similar percentage of the accounts receivable also stems from this single relationship.

NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2014-09, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)," which supersedes nearly all existing revenue recognition guidance under U.S. GAAP. The core principle of ASU 2014-09 is to recognize revenues when promised goods or services are transferred to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which an entity expects to be entitled for those goods or services. ASU 2014-09 defines a five-step process to achieve this core principle and, in doing so, more judgment and estimates may be required within the revenue recognition process than are required under existing U.S. GAAP. This guidance is effective for the annual period beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim and annual periods thereafter. Early adoption is not permitted. We expect the new guidance will have no impact on the Company's current revenue recognition policy.

In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-15, "Presentation of Financial Statements-Going Concern." ASU 2014-15 is intended to define management’s responsibility to evaluate whether there is substantial doubt about an organization’s ability to continue as a going concern and to provide related footnote disclosures. This guidance is effective for annual periods ending after December 15, 2016, and interim and annual periods thereafter. We do not expect the adoption of this standard to have a material impact on our consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flow.

In February 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-02, "Consolidations (Topic 810) - Amendments to the Consolidation Analysis". ASU 2015-2 makes amendments to the current consolidation guidance, including introducing a separate consolidation analysis specific to limited partnerships and other similar entities. Under this analysis, limited partnerships and other similar entities will be considered a variable-interest entity ("VIE") unless the limited partners hold substantive kick-out rights or participating rights. The standard is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2015. We are currently evaluating the standard and the impact, if any, on our business model and intended acquisitions.

Principles of Consolidation

The Company consolidates the financial position, results of operations, and cash flows of all majority-owned subsidiaries. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company (including the dba Principal Solar Institute) and its subsidiaries SunGen Mill 77, LLC; SunGen Step Guys, LLC; and Powerhouse One, LLC. Significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Table Of Contents

Fair Value

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. We believe the carrying values of our current assets and current liabilities approximate their fair values, and the carrying value of our notes payable approximate their estimated fair value for debts with similar terms, interest rates, and remaining maturities currently available to companies with similar credit ratings.

All related party transactions are evaluated by our officers and/or Board of Directors who take into account various factors, including their fiduciary duty to the Company; the relationships of the related parties to the Company; the material facts underlying each transaction; the anticipated benefits to the Company and related costs associated with such benefits; and the terms the Company could receive from an unrelated third party. Despite this review, related party transactions may not be recorded at fair value.

We do not engage in hedging activities, but we did have a derivative instrument treated as a liability whose value was measured on a recurring basis (see "Fair Value Instruments" and "Derivative Liability on Warrants" included herein).

Fair Value Instruments

In June 2013, in connection with a sale of its par value $.01 common stock ("Common Stock"), the Company issued complex non-traded warrants with the potential for downward adjustments of the exercise price. The Company estimated the value of these warrants upon issuance using a binomial lattice-based option valuation model. The Company re-valued these warrants at the end of each reporting period since issuance and any changes were reflected as gains or losses in current period results. In November 2014, the warrants were exercised and a resulting gain of $32,239 was recognized.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of our financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires us to, on an ongoing basis, make significant estimates and judgments that affect the reported values of assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions we believe are reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for our conclusions. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. Such differences could have a material impact on our future financial position, results of operations, and cash flows.

Cash and Equivalents

We consider cash, deposits, and short-term investments with original maturities of three months or less as cash and equivalents. Our deposits are maintained primarily in two financial institutions and, at times, may exceed amounts covered by U.S. Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insurance.

Restricted Cash

As part of the June 2013 financing with Bridge Bank, National Association (see "Acquisition Note Payable" herein), the Company agreed to maintain in a restricted cash account all proceeds, less debt service and approved expenses, generated by our Powerhouse One subsidiary. Such account provides a minimum of $93,150 replacement reserve ("module reserve") on solar panels found to be defective and potentially not covered under the 25-year manufacturer's warranty. Funds in excess of the modular reserve may be accessed by the Company whenever the debt service coverage ratio is greater than or equal to 1.1:1.0.

Accounts Receivable

Accounts receivable are stated at amounts management expects to collect from outstanding balances. Management provides for probable uncollectible amounts through a charge to earnings and a credit to a valuation allowance based on its assessment of individual accounts. No allowance has been recorded in the accompanying financial statements.

F-9

Table Of Contents

Solar Arrays

Solar arrays are stated at historical cost, net of accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the remaining estimated useful lives of the assets. The estimated useful lives of solar arrays are 25 years from the date first placed in service. Accumulated depreciation was $496,894 and $207,851 at December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. During the construction period, all costs and expenses related to the development and construction of a project, excluding administrative expenses, are recorded as construction in process.

In each case where a solar array is installed on property subject to a real estate lease, the Company is obligated to remove such installation at the end of the lease terms. As the expected termination dates including renewal periods are decades off (2041-2084); there is little experience uninstalling solar arrays anywhere in the world; costs are expected to be minimal; and the scrap value of the materials is expected to exceed the cost of removal, such removal costs have not been separately accounted for.

Long-Lived Assets

The recoverability of the carrying value of long-lived assets is assessed when an indicator of impairment has been identified.

For purposes of recognition and measurement of an impairment loss, a long-lived asset or group of assets is combined with other assets and liabilities at the lowest level for which identifiable cash flows are largely independent of the cash flows of other assets and liabilities.

For long-lived assets, when impairment indicators are present, the Company compares undiscounted future cash flows, including the eventual disposition of the asset group at market value, to the asset group’s carrying value to determine if the asset group is recoverable. If undiscounted cash flows are less than carrying value, the excess of carrying value over fair value is expensed in the period in which it is estimated to have occurred. The Company recorded an impairment charge of $113,661 in 2014 as it wrote-off its investment in SunGen Mill, LLC (see "Note 7 Leases" for additional discussion). No impairment was recorded in 2013.

Power Purchase Agreement

The Company evaluated the PPA with reference to Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 805-20-25-10 entitled "Identifiable Intangible Assets" and determined that, while it is not separable from other assets, it does meet the contractual-legal criteria for separate recognition. Further evaluation with reference to ASC 840-10-15-6 entitled "Arrangements that qualify as Leases" concluded the PPA is not a lease, and reference to ASC 805-20-25-10 entitled "Identifiable Intangible Assets" concluded the PPA has no separately recordable value.

Revenue Recognition

Power generation revenue is recognized as delivered to the purchaser based upon electrical meters affixed to the solar array and measuring kilowatt-hours produced. Our current power generation operations do not generate renewable energy credits, performance-based incentives, or similar credits to the benefit of the Company.

Income Taxes

Income taxes are recorded under the asset and liability method under which deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities using the enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.

We account for uncertain income tax positions in accordance with FASB ASC 740 entitled "Income Taxes". Interest costs and penalties related to income taxes are classified as interest expense and general and administrative costs, respectively, in our consolidated financial statements. Income tax returns are subject to a three-year statute of limitations during which they are subject to audit and adjustment. We file income tax returns in the United States federal jurisdiction and certain states. The tax years that remain subject to examination by major tax jurisdictions include 2010 through 2013.

F-10

Table Of Contents

Equity Transaction Fair Values

The estimated fair value of our Common Stock issued in share-based payments is measured by the more relevant of (1) the prices received in private placement sales of our stock or, (2) its publically-quoted market price. We estimate the fair value of simple warrants and stock options when issued or, in the case of issuances to non-employees, when vested using the Black-Scholes option-pricing ("Black-Scholes") model that requires the input of subjective assumptions. When valuing more complex warrants, options, or other derivative equity instruments, we use a binomial lattice-based option pricing model or Monte Carlo option pricing model, whichever management deems more appropriate in the circumstances. Recognition in stockholders’ equity and expense of the fair value of stock options awarded to employees is on the straight-line basis over the requisite service period. Subsequent changes in fair value are not recognized.

Net Income (Loss) per Share

Basic net income or loss per share is computed by dividing the net income or loss for the period by the weighted average number of shares of Common Stock outstanding for the period. Diluted income per share reflects the potential dilution of derivative securities by including other potential issuances of Common Stock including shares to be issued upon exercise of options and warrants and upon conversion of convertible debt. Potentially dilutive shares are not included in the event of a loss as the effect of doing so would be anti-dilutive. As of December 31, 2014, options to purchase 2,864,259 shares, warrants to purchase 168,550 shares of our Common Stock, and 586,667 shares issuable upon the conversion of convertible notes payable have been excluded from the calculation of diluted loss per share, as their effect would have been anti-dilutive. As of December 31, 2013, options to purchase 1,611,333 shares and warrants to purchase 2,350,368 shares of our Common Stock have been excluded from the calculation of diluted loss per share as their effect would have been anti-dilutive.

NOTE 3 - LIABILITIES ARISING FROM REVERSE MERGER

Liabilities arising from the reverse merger represent long term real estate leases which had been abandoned, general unsecured liabilities, commercial liens, and tax liens filed with various states all associated with the Company’s pre-reverse merger operations, which were unknowingly assumed in the March 2011 reverse merger transaction. The statute of limitations for most of such liabilities is five years and for most liens is ten years, subject to renewal at the lien holders’ option, depending upon the jurisdiction. The liens accrue interest at between 8% and 12%. Liabilities not associated with a lien have been accrued based upon management’s estimation of the amount to be paid. Liabilities associated with a lien have been accrued at face value. Management believes all such liabilities have been indemnified by Pegasus Funds, LLC (and/or its affiliates or related parties) to which (including its assigns) the Company issued 2,138,617 shares of its common stock as part of the reverse merger transaction. However, as the Company is obligor, the Company has recorded the liability. To date, only one lien holder has approached the Company concerning payment. Such lien holder is pursuing the former management of the Company first through litigation. To the extent such lien holder recovers the liability from the former management, the lien against the Company will be reduced.

NOTE 4 - COMPENSATION PAYABLE

Certain members of the management team have deferred payment of their compensation for the benefit of the Company. No formal terms of payment have been established.

NOTE 5 - ACQUISITIONS

Powerhouse One

Effective June 17, 2013, PSI entered into an acquisition agreement with Vis Solis, LLC (“Vis Solis”), a Tennessee Limited Liability Company and AstroSol, Inc., a Tennessee corporation (together "Co-Sellers") of Powerhouse One, LLC (“Powerhouse”), whereby 89% of the outstanding membership interests of Powerhouse were exchanged for $6,200,000 in cash. At the time of acquisition, the four solar arrays owned by Powerhouse had a remaining estimated useful life of 23 years (being first placed in service in 2011), and power generated is sold to a utility in Lincoln County Tennessee under an index-priced PPA having a fixed premium of $0.12 per kilowatt-hour over the GSA-1 scheduled rate (currently approximately $0.10 per kWh) through 2021, and a market rate based upon the then current GSA-1 scheduled rate for the remaining 10 years of the initial 20 year term ending in 2031.

F-11

Table Of Contents

The acquisition was accounted for as a business combination under ASC 805 and was entered into in order to acquire the solar arrays. As part of the acquisition, 46,010 shares were issued to Co-Sellers in consideration for the right to acquire their remaining 11% noncontrolling interest for $766,827 within one year from the initial acquisition date. The value of the noncontrolling interest was pro-rated based upon the negotiated value of the equity interest acquired by the Company.

In June 2014, the option to acquire the remaining 11% non-controlling interest of Powerhouse One from the Co-Sellers expired. However, the parties have re-confirmed their intent to transfer the non-controlling interest to the Company over the next several months as the Company obtains sufficient financing to do so, and on the same terms contained in the option as if it were still in full force and effect. The Company does not believe there are any material risks to the Company if the acquisition is not completed. The option value was expensed upon expiration.

The Company incurred $277,287 in acquisition related fees as part of the transaction which are included in general and administrative expenses.

The operating results of Powerhouse have been included in the consolidated financial statements since the acquisition date. On a pro forma basis, had the acquisition of Powerhouse occurred on January 1, 2013, the consolidated revenues and loss of PSI for 2013 would have been:

Innovative Solar 46

In November 2014, the Company entered into a Membership Interest Purchase Agreement ("MIPA") with Innovative Solar Systems, LLC, a solar developer operating primarily in North Carolina, to acquire Innovative Solar 46, LLC ("IS 46"), the owner of a 78.5mw AC solar project to be built in Hope Mills, North Carolina. IS 46 holds a single and intangible asset, a 15-year PPA with Duke Energy Progress, Inc. IS 46 does not have, nor has it ever had, any other assets, any liabilities, any employees, any revenues, or any operations of any kind. As such, IS 46 is not a "business" as defined in the accounting literature, and it has no historical financial statements. PSI agreed to pay Innovative Solar Systems, LLC $6,280,000 for 100% of the membership interest of IS 46 in a series of payments of approximately $300,000 per month between execution of the MIPA and the financial close (the point at which all project financing is arranged), and a balloon payment at financial close sufficient to having cumulatively paid 70% of the $6,280,000 price. The remaining 30% of the purchase price will be paid in installments of $150,000 per month through the project's commercial operation date. At December 31, 2014, a total of $870,000 had been paid to date, and failure by the Company to make any of the future scheduled payments may result in the loss of all payments made through such date. The Company is working with engineering and construction firms on final designs, and the total cost of the project based upon the preliminary work is expected to be approximately $173 million. The Company is in discussion with multiple parties to provide the acquisition, construction, and permanent financing for the project, however, no assurance can be given that adequate financing on terms acceptable, or even available, to the Company will be obtained. Closing of the acquisition is expected to occur no later than June 3, 2015, and construction is expected to be completed in early 2016.

In conjunction with the acquisition note payable, warrants to purchase 151,050 shares of Common Stock were issued to Bridge Bank with an exercise price of $1.00 and a contractual life of 10 years. The value of the warrants issued in connection with this debt, as determined using the Black-Scholes model, was $81,449 and is recorded as a discount to the debt. The discount is being amortized as interest expense over the life of the note, including $20,363 and $11,030 in 2014 and 2013, respectively. The assumptions used to value the warrants were as follows:

Estimated fair value	$0.54
Expected life (years)	5.26
Risk free interest rate	1.27%
Volatility	211.91%

The Bridge Bank warrants have cashless exercise rights, redemption rights providing the Company the right to redeem the warrants for $604,200, anti-dilution rights associated with offerings of equity securities, a term expiring on the first to occur of (i) the 10 year anniversary of the grant, (ii) the closing of the Company’s initial public offering (which is being affected pursuant to Registration Statement on Form S-1), or (iii) the liquidation of the Company (each a “Termination Event”). In each case, unless exercised earlier, the warrants are automatically exercised on a cashless basis upon a Termination Event. The Company also provided the holder registration rights in connection with the grant of the warrants.

Convertible Notes Payable, Related Parties

In June 2014, the Company issued convertible notes of $250,000 each to two of its Board members, Messrs. Heller and Marmol, to fund deposits on potential future acquisitions. Such potential acquisitions remain subject to significant uncertainties including due diligence, obtaining construction and permanent financing, and negotiating PPAs, developer agreements, and interconnection agreements. The notes bear interest at a rate of 18% per year and matured on December 5, 2014, and all principal and interest was due at maturity. Principal and interest is payable in cash or shares of Common Stock, at the option of the holder, at a conversion price of $1.00 per share. The notes were secured pursuant to a security agreement by the Company's interest in the otherwise unencumbered net cash flow, if any, from the operations of its Powerhouse One subsidiary. The Company may prepay the notes at any time, but the holders of the notes were guaranteed to receive a minimum of six months interest on the notes.

On December 1, 2014, Michael Gorton, the Company's Chief Executive Officer, loaned to the Company pursuant to a convertible promissory note the amount of $130,000. The note initially matured on June 30, 2015, bears interest at a rate of 12% per annum, is convertible into shares of our Common Stock at a price of $1.50 per share, and was secured by a claim on proceeds, if any, of a solar project being acquired (IS 46). The notes can be prepaid at any time prior to maturity without penalty. On February 27, 2015, the note was modified to extend the maturity date to September 30, 2015, and eliminate all collateral securing the note. All other aspects of the note remained unchanged.

NOTE 7 - LEASES

The Company's solar arrays sit on properties subject to long-term real estate leases (or similar agreements in the case of rooftop installations) with initial terms equal to the PPA and having one or more renewal options. Rental payments under the leases vary in type between fixed price, percentage of revenue, or, in the case of rooftop installations, no separate charge. The Company's current solar array installations are as follows:

Installation	Location	kWh	Date	Term	Rent
Powerhouse One	Fayetteville, TN	3,000	Aug 2011	20 yr. + 2 5-yr renewals	4% of revenue
SunGen Step Guys	Alfred, ME	110	Sep 2009	25 yr. + 2 25-yr renewals	None
SunGen Mill 77	Amesbury, MA	63	June 2010	25 yr. + 2 25-yr renewals	None

The Company recognized expenses of $38,894 and $11,086 in rent under the Powerhouse One lease in 2014 and 2013, respectively.

SunGen Mill 77

The SunGen Mill 77 ("Mill 77") facility is a rooftop project in Amesbury, MA acquired by the Company in September 2011. The project generated less than 1% of consolidated revenues in 2014. Due to record winter storms and snowstorms in Massachusetts in the December 2014 / January 2015 timeframe, their impact on the ongoing maintenance program including seemingly insurmountable roof leaks, and resulting tension with the landlord, the Company determined the Mill 77 project was no longer economically desirable and has arranged to uninstall the project. Costs to uninstall the project total approximately $18,000, and the write-off of the asset was $113,661. The actual removal of the project from the rooftop will occur when the weather permits. The agreement with the landlord to uninstall the project resolved all claims, if any, and relieved both parties of all future obligations.

The Company maintains its headquarters in Dallas, Texas pursuant to a month-to-month lease at a cost of $500 per month.

NOTE 8 - DERIVATIVE LIABILITY ON WARRANTS

In June 2013, the Company issued warrants to purchase 2,181,818 shares of Common Stock with a 10-year contractual term to Steuben Investment Company II, L.P. in connection with the issuance of Common Stock to fund the Powerhouse One acquisition. The warrants were immediately exercisable into the Company’s Common Stock with an exercise price of $1.00 per share. However, as the warrants have “down round” protection, they are treated as a derivative liability and were historically valued using a binomial lattice-based option valuation model using holding period assumptions developed from the Company's business plan and management assumptions, and expected volatility from comparable companies including OTC Pink^®and small-cap companies.

In November 2014, all 2,181,818 warrants held by Steuben Investment Company II, L.P. and described above were exercised by the holder in a cashless transaction as provided for in the warrant agreement. Based upon a share valuation of $1.50 per share determined by the Company's Board of Directors based upon concurrent issuances, the exercise of warrants to acquire 2,181,818 shares of Common Stock on a cashless basis resulted in a net issuance to Steuben of 727,273 shares of Common Stock. The final settlement of the liability upon exercise resulted in a gain listed in the table below.

The following table sets forth a summary of changes in fair value of the warrants during the period covered by the accompanying financial statements:

Balance at issuance June 14, 2013	$	1,170,459
Change in fair value included in net loss		(47,310	)

NOTE 9 – CAPITAL STOCK

Preferred Stock

The Company has authorized 100,000,000 shares of $.01 par value Class A preferred stock but had none outstanding during the periods covered in the accompanying financial statements.

Common Stock

The Company has authorized 300,000,000 shares of $.01 par value Common Stock, and it trades on the OTC Pink^® under the symbol “PSWW.” Holders of our Common Stock are entitled to one vote per share and receive dividends or other distributions when, and if, declared by our Board of Directors. In addition to shares outstanding, we have reserved 2,864,359 shares for issuance upon exercise of equity incentive awards with options to purchase 2,864,359 shares of Common Stock granted to date.

Throughout 2013, we issued a total of 970,000 shares at a price of $1.00 per share to investors. In addition, in May 2013, the Company issued 145,990 shares of Common Stock for conversion of convertible debt of $138,000 plus accrued interest of $7,990 including induced conversion expense of $102,193. In June 2013, the Company issued 2,909,091 shares of Common Stock and 2,181,818 warrants for $1,600,000 as part of financing the acquisition of Powerhouse One, LLC (see "Steuben Investment" herein). In June 2013, the Company issued 46,010 shares of Common Stock at $1.00 for the right to purchase the remaining noncontrolling interest of Powerhouse One, LLC. The right to acquire the noncontrolling interest of Powerhouse One, LLC expired in June 2014.

Throughout 2014, we issued a total of 1,356,000 shares at a price of $1.00 per share and 146,669 shares at a price of $1.50 per share to executives, employees, members of the Board of Directors, and unrelated investors, and we issued 727,273 shares resulting from an exercise of warrants at a price of $1.00 per share (see "Steuben Investment herein"), and 100 shares resulting from an exercise of options.

Stueben Investment

Effective June 14, 2013, the Company entered into a Subscription Agreement with Steuben Investment Company II, L.P. (“Steuben”). Pursuant to the subscription agreement, Steuben purchased 2,909,091 shares of the Company’s common stock for an aggregate of $1,600,000.05 or $0.55 per share. As additional consideration in connection with the subscription, the Company granted Steuben warrants to purchase 2,181,818 shares of the Company’s common stock with an exercise price of $1.00 per share and a term of 10 years. The Company also provided Steuben registration rights whereby the Company was required to file a registration statement and take all necessary actions to maintain the availability of Rule 144 for a period of two years following its effective date. The registration statement became effective on February 3, 2015.

In the event we fail to take all necessary actions to enable Steuben to sell shares pursuant to Rule 144, we may have to pay to Steuben penalties totaling $216,000 which could have a material adverse effect on our available cash, limit our ability to raise capital, and negatively impact our results of operations. The Company has not accrued a liability for this potential penalty, as it believes the payment of any such penalty is not probable.

Stock Options

2013 Issuances

In May 2013, the Company issued to advisors options to acquire 96,000 shares of its Common Stock. The options have exercise prices ranging from $1.41 to $1.70, a contractual life of 10 years, and vest over 8 months. The options were valued using the Black-Scholes model and the resulting equity-based compensation expense included in general and administrative expenses for 2013 was $108,731, based upon the following parameters:

	2014
Estimated fair value	$1.06 - $1.31
Expected life (years)	10
Risk free interest rate	1.72 –2.17%
Volatility	73.26%

F-15

Table Of Contents

In June 2014, the Company re-priced the advisors' 96,000 options. The options, originally issued having exercise prices ranging from $1.41 to $1.70 per share, were re-priced to $1.00 per share. Because of the small change in inputs to the Black-Scholes model since they were initially issued (especially volatility), there was no expense recorded in connection with this action.

In 2013, the Company issued to its independent Directors options to acquire an aggregate of 432,000 shares of its Common Stock. The options have an exercise price of $1.00 per share and vests in periods ranging from 8 to 24 months. The options were valued using the Black-Scholes model and the resulting equity-based compensation expense for 2014 and 2013 was $70,948 and $191,249, respectively based upon the following parameters:

	2014
Estimated fair value	$0.54 - $0.99
Expected life (years)	5.26 - 5.50
Risk free interest rate	0.80 - 1.69%
Volatility	211.91%

2014 Issuances

Throughout 2014, the Company issued 1,253,026 options to executives, employees, contractors, members of the Board of Directors, and advisors having an exercise price of $1.00 and contractual lives ranging from 5 to 10 years. The options were valued using the Black-Scholes model and the resulting equity-based compensation expense for 2014 was $1,068,012 based upon the following parameters:

	2014
Estimated fair value	$1.00
Expected life (years)	5.00 - 7.25
Risk free interest rate	0.44 - 2.19%
Volatility	227.71%

As the Company does not have a significant history of post vesting exercises to estimate an expected life of the option, the simplified method was used wherein the expected life becomes the mid-point of the options vesting date and their contractual life.

A summary of option activity for 2013 and 2014 is as follows:

	Shares	Weighted Avg. Exercise Price	Weighted Avg. Grant Date Value

Stock-based compensation expense included in general and administrative expenses in 2014 was $1,138,961, and $220,372 of compensation expense related to options not yet vested remains unrecognized at December 31, 2014. Such amount is expected to be recognized during the years 2015 through 2017.

The weighted average exercise price of those options currently outstanding is $1.16 and those currently exercisable is $1.08.

NOTE 12 - TAXES

Our approximately $7.65 million of federal income tax net operating loss carryovers expire from 2030 through 2034. Our federal and state income tax returns are not under examination by any taxing authorities and no statute extensions have been granted; therefore, only our December 31, 2011 to 2014 tax returns are subject to examination.

Management has evaluated tax positions pursuant to ASC 740 and determined that no uncertain tax positions exist at this time. As a result, no amounts have been recorded related to a tax position more likely than not to be sustained. The company classifies interest and penalties related to income taxes, if any, as interest expense and general and administrative costs, respectively, in our consolidated financial statements.

Significant components of our income tax provisions were:

	2014		2013
Current provision
Federal	$	-	$	-
State		928		1,227
Total current tax provision		928		1,227

Deferred provision
Federal		-		-
State		-		-
Total deferred tax provision		-		-
Total income tax provision	$	928	$	1,227

The provision for income tax differs from the amount estimated by applying the statutory federal income tax rate to the net loss before taxes as follows at December 31:

Taxes at statutory rate (34%)	$	(1,133,554	)	$	(798,946	)
State taxes		(43,342	)		(231,920	)
Change in valuation allowance		1,175,084			1,059,316
Permanent differences		(11,350	)		(15,713	)
Change in state tax rate		(9,869	)		(69,976	)
Other (prior year adjustments)		23,959			58,466
Total income tax provision	$	928		$	1,227

Deferred tax assets (liabilities) are comprised of the following at December 31:

Accrued compensation		267,156			214,782
Other accrued expenses		157,266			55,688
Gross current deferred tax assets		424,422			270,470

Valuation allowance for deferred tax assets		(3,841,508	)		(2,666,424	)
Deferred tax assets, net of valuation allowance	$	-		$	-

The Company has established a valuation allowance to fully reserve the net deferred tax assets for the periods December 31, 2014 and 2013, due to the uncertainty of the timing and amounts of future taxable income.

NOTE 13 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

The Company may be subject to rescission rights from certain investors who purchased shares of our common stock based on their review of the presentation which we furnished as Exhibit 99.1 to our Current Report on Form 8-K, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 5, 2014, which may have constituted a communication of an “offer to sell” as described in Section 5(c) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) in violation of Section 5 of the Securities Act. If a claim were brought by any ‘recipients’ of such presentation and a court were to conclude that such presentation constituted a violation of Section 5 of the Securities Act, we could be required to repurchase the shares sold to the investors who reviewed such presentation at the original purchase price, plus statutory interest from the date of purchase, for claims brought during a period of one year from the date of their purchase of common stock. We could also incur considerable expense in contesting any such claims. The prospectus included in the Form S-1/A and dated October 20, 2014, included an additional risk factor stating:

"You should not rely on any information set forth in the presentation attached as Exhibit 99.1 to our Current Report on Form 8-K, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 5, 2014 in making an investment decision."

As of the date of these statements, no legal proceedings or claims have been made or threatened by any investors in the Company and the Company considers the likelihood that the investors will file suit to be remote. Therefore, in accordance with ASC 450-20 entitled “Loss Contingencies”, the Company has not recorded a liability for the potential rescission.

NOTE 14 - SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

Financing

On March 2, 2015, the Company entered into a convertible loan agreement with Alpha Capital Anstalt ("Alpha") to borrow $1,250,000 (the "Loan"). The Loan is convertible into shares of Common Stock at a rate of $1.00 per share, bears interest at a rate of 8.0% per annum, all principal and interest is due on September 2, 2015, and the loan is secured by the assets of the Company and its subsidiaries (excluding Powerhouse One and all interest in its operations, its assets, and proceeds or distributions therefrom). The principal and accrued interest amounts on the Loan are convertible at any time into shares of Common Stock at a rate of $1.00 per share. In connection with the Loan, the Company granted Alpha 937,500 warrants (the ‘Warrants”) exercisable at $1.50 per share, certain piggy-back registration rights, cashless exercise privileges and anti-dilution protection on both the Common Stock into which the Loan may convert and for which the Warrants may be exercised under the occurrence of certain events.

Acquisition (pending)

On March 2, 2015, the Company entered into a MIPA with Innovative Solar Systems, LLC, a solar developer operating primarily in North Carolina, to acquire Innovative Solar 42, LLC ("IS 42"), the owner of a 72.9mw AC solar project to be built in Fayetteville, North Carolina. IS 42 holds a single and intangible asset, a 10-year PPA with Duke Energy Progress, Inc. IS 42 does not have, nor has it ever had, any other assets, any liabilities, any employees, any revenues, or any operations of any kind. As such, IS 42 is not a "business" as defined in the accounting literature, and it has no historical financial statements. PSI agreed to pay Innovative Solar Systems, LLC $5,832,000 for 100% of the membership interest of IS 42 in a series of payments of approximately $300,000 per month between execution of the MIPA and the financial close (the point at which all project financing is arranged), and a balloon payment at financial close sufficient to having cumulatively paid 70% of the $5,832,000 purchase price. The remaining 30% of the purchase price will be paid in installments of $150,000 per month through the project's commercial operation date. A total of $570,000 has been paid to date, and failure by the Company to make any of the future scheduled payments may result in the loss of all payments made through such date. The Company is working with engineering and construction firms on final designs, and the total cost of the project based upon the preliminary work is expected to be approximately $150 million. The Company is in discussion with multiple parties to provide the acquisition, construction, and permanent financing for the project, however, no assurance can be given that adequate financing on terms acceptable, or even available, to the Company will be obtained. Closing of the acquisition is expected to occur no later than August 30, 2015, and construction is expected to be completed in early 2016.
