ITEM 1.   DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS


We were organized under the laws of the State of Oregon on July 27, 1992 as Sky Technologies, Inc.  On August 1, 1994, our name was officially changed by a vote of a majority of our shareholders to REGI U.S., Inc.  Rand Energy Group Inc., a privately held British Columbia corporation ("Rand Energy") holds approximately 5% of the common shares of REGI. Rand Energy is controlled 51% by Reg Technologies Inc., a publicly held British Columbia corporation ("Reg Tech").  Reg Tech holds approximately 12% of the common shares of REGI.

We are a development stage company engaged in the business of developing and building an improved axial vane-type rotary engine known as the RadMax® rotary technology (the "Technology" or the “RadMax® Engine”), used in the design of lightweight and high efficiency engines, compressors and pumps. The Company has a project cost sharing agreement, whereby it will fund 50% of the further development of the RadMax® Engine and Reg Tech will fund 50%.

Our principal offices are located at 240-11780 Hammersmith Way, Richmond, British Columbia V7A 5E9, Canada. Our telephone number is (604) 278-5996 and our telefacsimile number is (604) 278-3409.  Our website is www.regtech.com.

We will likely need to raise additional capital in the future beyond any amount currently on hand and which may become available as a result of the exercise of warrants and options which are currently outstanding, in order to fully implement our intended plan of operations.

BUSINESS OF THE COMPANY AND PRODUCTS

Overview and History

We are engaged in the business of developing and building an improved axial vane-type rotary engine used in the design of lightweight and high efficiency engines, compressors and pumps. The worldwide intellectual and marketing rights to the RadMax® Engine, exclusive of the United States, are held by Reg Tech. The Company owns the U.S. marketing and intellectual rights and has a project cost sharing agreement, whereby it will fund 50% of the further development of the RadMax® Engine and Reg Tech will fund 50%.

The RadMax® Engine is a variation of the Original Engine (originally referred to as the RadMax® Engine), an axial vane rotary engine.

Pursuant to an agreement dated October 20, 1986 between Reg Tech, Rand Cam-Engine Corp. and James McCann, Reg Tech agreed to acquire a 40% voting interest in a new corporation to be incorporated to acquire the rights to the Original Engine. The new corporation was Rand Energy Group Inc. (“Rand Energy”). Pursuant to an agreement made as of April 27, 1993 among Reg Tech, Rand Cam-Engine Corp., Rand Energy and James McCann, Reg Tech acquired an additional 330,000 shares (11%) of Rand Energy from Rand Cam-Engine Corp. to increase its investment to 51%.

Based upon testing work performed by independent organizations on prototype models, we believe that the RadMax® Engine holds significant potential in a number of other applications ranging from small stationary equipment to automobiles and aircraft. In additional to its potential use as an internal combustion engine, the RadMax® Engine design is being employed in the development of several types of compressors, pumps, expanders and other applications.

To date, several prototypes of the RadMax® Engine have been tested and additional development and testing work is continuing. We believe that such development and testing will continue until a commercially feasible design is perfected. There is no assurance at this time, however, that such a commercially feasible design will ever be perfected, or if it is, that it will become profitable. If a commercially feasible design is perfected, we do, however, expect to derive revenues from licensing the Technology relating to the RadMax® Engine regardless of whether actual commercial production is ever achieved. There is no assurance at this time, however, that revenues will ever be received from licensing the Technology even if it does prove to be commercially feasible.

We believe that a large market would exist for a practical rotary engine which could be produced at a competitive price and which could provide a good combination of fuel efficiency, power density and exhaust emissions.

Based on the market potential, we believe the RadMax® Engine is well suited for application to internal combustion engines, pumps, compressors and expansion engines. The mechanism can be scaled to match virtually any size requirement. This flexibility opens the door to large markets being developed.

We have tested the RadMax® Engine technology for interested customers.  To date we have granted an option for a license for certain applications for a Fortune 1000 company who are evaluating the RadMax® Engine design and are currently assisting in the development and testing at no cost to the Company.

PRODUCTS AND PROJECTS

Rand Cam Technology

Gasoline and Diesel Engine

Two prototype engines were built in 1993 and 1994 by the WVURC to run on gasoline. Testing on these prototypes suggested that the concept was fundamentally sound and that with a program of engine review, design, testing and development, a technically successful range of engines could be developed. The prototype design for the diesel engine was designed by a consortium made up of Alliant Techsystems (formerly Hercules Aerospace Company) ("Alliant"), WVURC and us. Alliant was involved in the design and development including drawings for the RandCam™ diesel engine. In addition Alliant performed extensive analysis on the diesel engine including bearings, cooling, leakage, rotor, vanes, housing, vane tip heating, geometry and combustion. This engine was designed as a general purpose power plant for military and commercial applications. A further prototype of the diesel engine was assembled and tested.

In January 2006 several continuous successful combustion tests were completed at 245 RPM on the new Rand Cam™ engine prototype. Spin tests were conducted initially up to 800 RPM on the new modified version of the Rand Cam™ engine. There was an insignificant amount of wear on the engine over several months.

Reg Technologies, Inc., together with REGI U.S., Inc., has tested Rand Cam™ diesel engine for a generator application for hybrid electric cars.  Additionally, our licensee for the 42 H.P. production model diesel Rand Cam™ tested the engine for unmanned aerial applications for the U.S. military.

Rand Cam™ Generator and Fuel Cell Technology

In April, 2005 the Rand Cam™ engine was tested for generator and hybrid car applications.  We utilized a unique vane design that does not require vane tip seals.  Eliminating the need for vane tip seals will reduce the manufacturing and maintenance costs significantly, therefore, resulting in a breakthrough with the technology.   We entered into a distributors agreement in June, 2005, to acquire rights to distribute fuel cell technology for Canada and Europe, which was ultimately assigned to our affiliate, Reg Tech.

Production and building of the fuel cell components commenced, and delivery to Reg Tech was scheduled to begin upon successful training and export approvals. Due to financial problems with the distributor, the agreement was cancelled.

RadMax®  Technology

In February, 2004 we completed testing of the prototype 42 H.P. diesel engine at Adiabatics in Columbus, IN and at the U.S. Navy's test facility at Patuxent River, MD. The initial test results demonstrated that the first generation prototype engine generated pressure and temperature.
In February 2006 we received the 125 H.P. RadMax® diesel engine from Radian Milparts, tested by the Company’s rotary engine specialist. The 125 H.P. RadMax® diesel engine is the improved version of the 42 H.P. RadMax® diesel engine, which focused on eliminating leak paths and was designed for maintainability.

During 2006, final modifications were successfully implemented on the 42 H.P RadMax®, for the 125 H.P. version of the RadMax® engine completed by Ebco Industries. Testing consisted of endurance tests which determined wear and tear, and maintenance factors /hydrocarbons /calculations and fuel efficiency using a state-of-the-art computerized fuel injection system. Biodiesel and ethanol blended fuels were utilized.  Testing lead to several important modifications which eliminated oil leaks from entering the combustion chamber, and reduced compression losses.

In January 2007, the RadMax® 125 hp diesel engine design was evaluated through computer modeling to determine mechanical, rotational and thermal stress; analysis contact forces; and engine resonant frequencies.  The 42 horsepower RadMax® diesel engine and compressor prototypes were designed and concept tested.
 
On May 14, 2008 we entered into an agreement with a Fortune 1000 company (“evaluation company”) to evaluate the RadMax® Engine technology.  The agreement covers the evaluation of RadMax® Engine technology by the evaluation company to determine if the RadMax® technology meets the evaluation company’s requirements for certain aerospace commercial and military market applications.
 
 
We granted the evaluation company an option for a period of 90 days after the completion of the evaluation period to execute a letter of intent to exclusively license our RadMax® intellectual property for certain commercial and military markets. We also granted the evaluation company the option, for a period of 12 months after the completion of the evaluation period, to execute a letter of intent to non-exclusively license our RadMax® Engine IP for certain aerospace, commercial and military markets.
 
In October 2008 the Company hired Paul Porter, an engineer with exclusive sealing and mechanical engineering background.  In January 2009 the Company hired Allen Macknight a Thermal Engineer, who is recently retired from Honeywell, to consult on the development of the RadMax® Engine design.

REGI engineering commenced and completed the detailed design modeling for the RadMax® diesel engine using COSMOS, a design and analysis tool, verifying and improving the design with respect to stress (finite element analysis), temperature (thermal analysis), and material properties (metallurgy).  The analysis provided by COSMOS will be applied against all RadMax® design components including the rotor, cam, stator, vanes, and seals.

Following the successful completion of the COSMOS analysis, and review /approval by the evaluation company’s engineers and executives, our plans are to commence building the prototype diesel engine.  Testing the prototype will be a joint effort with the evaluation company.

The process of bringing a working prototype through a successful test program is a challenging effort. We originally estimated the time for completion of the prototype at approximately April 2009.  However, the scope and depth of technical reviews and analysis by the evaluation company’s engineers, while leading towards a significantly more robust design, delayed release of manufacturing drawings for competitive procurement.

The Company extended the term of the evaluation agreement with the evaluation company until December 31, 2009.  All other terms of the evaluation agreement remain the same.  The Company believes the additional time spent, by both engineering teams, preparing and running computer simulations and analyzing models of the RadMax® Engine design, prior to fabrication of a prototype, will shorten the total development time, and will increase the probability of success of a working model prototype for the diesel engine.
 
On May 22, 2009 drawings were released to start fabrication of a RadMax® Engine test rig.  The test rig is designed to test multiple versions of the RadMax® vane actuation systems. A cam device, driven by a variable speed motor, will propel the vane through its full range of axial motion prior to the implementation of a full scale RadMax® prototype.  The purpose of the test rig is to verify the vane actuation system design and make any modifications indicated by the tests prior to the implementation of a full scale prototype.  Flexibility in design will allow testing of an alternate vane actuation system, currently under development with the evaluation company.
 
7
 

 
 
When testing commences, the test rig shall provide validation of vane motion, measurement position tracking, induced vibration, required forces, and other parameters. Potential future capabilities under consideration include adding high speed video to “capture” instantaneous changes in motion, balance and vibration, harmonics, and thermal cycling to measure changes as a result of temperature extremes.
 
We estimated that the test rig design could be completed in 4 to 6 weeks, and then commence the fabrication of the diesel engine application for the evaluation company.  We believe the testing of these important aspects of the evaluation company’s diesel engine application will determine the final design and fabrication will be the next important milestone.
 
Following completion of reviews by the evaluation company, and the COSMOS analysis, a Request for Proposals (RFP) was issued to three pre-qualified bidders to provide a fixed-price quotation versus a formal Statement of Work (SOW). The RFP was released 12 June 2009. We offered a 30-day period for review of drawings, and responses to questions. After the review period, bidders will have 10 days to submit a quotation and schedule for each line item. The closing date of the open discussion period was 10 July 2009. The closing date for receipt of the proposals is 28 July 2009. When proposals are received, and a comparative analysis performed, we will have fixed-price quotations for expected cost and schedule. We will require 2-3 weeks to perform a comparative analysis of proposal, and then plan to make an award to the most responsible and compliant bidder.
 
With this approved design, the RadMax® Diesel Engine test program will start shortly after receipt of the RadMax® parts and assemblies. The tests will initially validate seal performance, vane actuation, pressurization, and lubrication. A series of tests will verify other technology areas, already proven by extensive analysis.

The phase 1 tests will validate the mechanical, sealing, and friction aspects of the engine design to quantify inherent parameters and validate the results of analysis, as follows:

·  
Verify Weight and Dimensions of Each Component
·  
Trial Assembly
·  
Final Assembly
·  
Trial Fitment of Engine Accessories
·  
Test Stand Preparation and Engine Installation on Test Stand
·  
Cold Performance Motoring Tests
·  
Increased RPM Performance Motoring Test. Increase RPM
·  
High Speed Performance Testing
·  
Repeat Steps 1 to 8 With Alternate Seal Configurations

All tests steps must result in success. Failure of any test step requires retest of that step, which might include redesign or rework of parts and assemblies. The ultimate success of the phase 1 tests is to measure pressure and temperature increase in the RadMax® Diesel Engine sufficient to sustain continuous combustion.

The phase 1 test schedule is estimated at 3 months following receipt of the delivered RadMax® Diesel Engine parts and assemblies. The test location will be determined by competitive bid.

Following successful completion of the phase 1 tests, the phase 2 tests will validate thermodynamics and cooling aspects of the technology. Some RadMax® Diesel Engine parts and assemblies could require modification. We anticipate that such modifications, if any, will be minor.
 
8

 
 

 


The phase 2 tests require the integration of engine accessories and sensors as follows:

·  
Cooling management (radiator, hoses, fan, water pump, etc.)
·  
Lubrication oil management (sump, pump, hoses, filter, etc.),
·  
Fuel management (common rail injection system, fuel lines, fuel injectors, fuel tank, etc.)
·  
Ignition management (control unit, sensors, wiring, etc.)
·  
Starting management (starter, battery, cables, etc.)
·  
Air management (plenum, hoses, filter, muffler, etc.)

The phase 2 tests are summarized by the following:

·  
Hot Performance Starting Tests, with fuel
·  
Hot Performance One-Minute Test, with fuel
·  
Hot Performance Multiple-Minutes Test, with fuel
·  
Hot Performance Starting Tests, with fuel
·  
Hot Performance One-Minute Test, with fuel
·  
Hot Performance Multi-Minute Test, with fuel
·  
Post Engine Test, Teardown and Inspection
·  
Performance Measurement (one-hour run-in)
·  
Endurance Measurement (three-hour run-in)
·  
Develop Horsepower vs. Torque Curves
·  
24 X 7 Test

The phase 2 test schedule is estimated at 3 months following receipt successful completion of the phase 1 tests. The test location will be determined by competitive bid. The successful bidder must have the requisite facilities, equipment, and personnel to perform the tests, which characterize the RadMax® Diesel Engine. The characterization consists of performance curves for power, torque, and fuel consumption.

The objective of the new improved diesel engine design is to make significant improvement over all existing engine designs in use today.  The RadMax® engine reduces weight, number of parts, and complexity, and will use less fuel, and, therefore, reduce hydrocarbons.

The design incorporates changes recommended to date by us and the evaluation company. Engineers have analyzed the stress deflections of the vane actuator forces and these are now acceptable for the new diesel engine implementation.

RadMax® ™ Compressor and Pump

We designed and built a prototype 3.2 SCFM [define] air compressor for a large fuel cell customer.   Testing displayed encouraging results of up to 25 P.S.I. with only 800 R.P.M., and exceeded our expectations.  A license agreement for compressor applications was not finalized.

In January 2007, we completed a statement of work agreement with an engineering, prototyping, and manufacturing services company to complete a working model RadMax® pump.

In March 2007, the RadMax®125 hp prototype pump fabrication was completed and prototype radial shaft seals were integrated to eliminate leakage between rotors and cams.  In July 2007 further pump testing was completed.  The following is a summary of the product development to date:
 
 
9
 
 

 

Performance measurements of prototype of RadMax® pump completed.
 
·  
Axial Vane Positive Displacement Pump efficiency validated greater than 80%.
 
 
·  
Proprietary RadMax® radial shaft seals were qualified for all low temperature applications (pumps, compressors).
 
 
·  
Validated ability to run dry, self-prime, and re-acquire prime.
 
 
·  
Measured suction to exceed 20 feet, lift (head) more than 80 feet.
 
 
·  
RadMax® 10-inch diameter prototype compressor fabrication was underway.
 
 
·  
Proprietary material to coat internal surfaces to facilitate safe run-dry operation.
 
·  
The RadMax® Compressor includes many components common to RadMax® Pump, which reduces production unit cost, and is designed for any gaseous use (air, refrigerant, carbon dioxide, etc.)

In October 2007, the prototype, proof-of-concept pump was completed. This pump was suitable for supporting demonstration to potential customers displaying performance that the RadMax® Pump is a positive displacement device, capable of processing approximately twice its internal volume every revolution. We felt this could indicate that a production unit could have identical performance with half the size and weight of any competitive unit. Reduction of weight is a significant performance parameter for all equipment, directly translating into reduction of energy requirements.

Working with a customer's specifications, a production pump would include definition of performance goals, which translate into size, weight, materials, and fluid to be pumped. A production pump would require the design and development of production tooling for lower cost castings (aluminum, steel, other), or injection molded polymer devices.

Our completed efforts for the prototype RadMax® Pump included the following metrics and results:

Size: 10-inch diameter
Weight: 140 pounds (estimated)
Material: All steel
Fluid: Any oil or water
Priming: Self-priming
Metrics: Volume per revolution, lift, head
Pressure: 500 psi (maximum)
Op Range: 0° C (32° F) to 100° C (212° F)
Speed: Up to 5000 RPM


The worldwide intellectual and marketing rights to the RadMax® Engine, exclusive of the United States, are held by Reg Tech. The Company owns the U.S. marketing and intellectual rights.

A United States patent was issued for the Rand Cam™ Engine (originally referred to as the RC/DC Engine) on July 4, 1995, and assigned to us. Since no marketable product has yet been developed, we have not received any revenues from operations.
 
10

 
 

 

The RadMax® Engine is based upon the Original Engine patented in 1983. Brian Cherry, an officer of the Company, has done additional development work on the Original Engine which resulted in significant changes and improvements for which the U.S. patent has been issued and assigned to us. We believe the RadMax® Engine offers important simplification from the basic Original Engine, which will make it easier to manufacture and will also allow it to operate more efficiently.

We intend to pursue the development of the RadMax® technologies by entering into licensing and/or joint venture arrangements with other larger companies, which have the financial resources to maximize the potential of the technology.

We expect revenue from license agreements with the potential end users based on the success of the design from the compressor, pump, and diesel engine prototypes. Based on successful license or joint venture agreements, we expect to receive royalties. However, there is no assurance that the tests will be successful or that we will ever receive any such royalties.


We currently face and will continue to face competition in the future from established companies engaged in the business of developing, manufacturing and marketing engines and other products. While not a highly competitive business in terms of numbers of competitors, the business of developing engines of a new design and attempting to either license or produce them is nonetheless difficult because most existing engine producers are large, well financed companies which are very concerned about maintaining their market position. Such competitors are already well established in the market and have substantially greater resources than us. Internal combustion engines are produced by automobile manufacturers, marine engine manufacturers, heavy equipment manufacturers and specialty aircraft and industrial engine manufacturers. We expect that our engine would be used mainly in industrial and marine applications.

Except for the Wankel rotary engine built by Mazda of Japan, no competitor, that we are aware of, presently produces in a commercial quantity any rotary engine similar to the engines we are developing. The Wankel rotary engine is similar only in that it is a rotary engine rather than a reciprocating piston engine. Without substantially greater financial resources than is currently available to us, however, it is very possible that it may not be able to adequately compete in the engine business. One competitor, Rotary Power International, is presently producing the first production SCORE rotary (Wankel type) engines. Our RadMax® Engine is calculated to be smaller, quieter and cost less to produce and maintain.

We believe that if and when our engine is completely developed, in order to be successful in meeting or overcoming competition which currently exists or may develop in the future, our engine will need to offer superior performance and/or cost advantages over existing engines used in various applications.

RAW MATERIALS AND PRINCIPAL SUPPLIERS

Since we are not in production and there are no plans at this time for us to enter the actual engine manufacturing business, raw materials are not of present concern. At this time, however, there does not appear to be any foreseeable problem with obtaining any materials or components, which may be required in the testing or manufacture of its potential products.

PATENTS, TRADEMARKS, LICENCES, FRANCHISES, CONCESSIONS, ROYALTY AGREEMENTS, LABOR CONTRACTS, INCLUDING DURATION

Patents

On August 20, 1992, we entered in an agreement with Rand Energy and Brian Cherry (the "August 1992 Agreement") under which we issued 5,700,000 shares of our common stock at a deemed value of $0.01 per share to Rand Energy in exchange for certain valuable rights, technology, information, and other tangible and intangible assets, including improvements, relating to the United States rights to the Original Engine.  Rand Energy's sole director is REGI’s president.

We entered into an agreement dated April 13, 1993 with Rand Energy, Reg Tech and Brian Cherry (the "April 1993 Agreement") and made as an amendment to a previous Amendment Agreement dated November 23, 1992 between Rand Energy, Reg Tech and Brian Cherry and an original agreement dated July 30, 1992 between Rand Energy, Reg Tech and Brian Cherry, Cherry agreed to: (a) sell, transfer and assign to Rand Energy worldwide rights, except for the United States, to all of his right, title and interest in and to the technology related to the RadMax® Engine (the "Technology"), including all pending and future patent applications in respect of the Technology, together with any improvements, changes or other variations to the Technology; (b) sell, transfer and assign to the Company United States of America rights to all of his right, title and interest in and to the Technology, including all pending and future patent applications in respect of the Technology, together with any improvements, changes or other variations to the Technology. On November 9, 1993, in consideration for this transfer of the Technology, Brian Cherry was issued 100,000 shares of Reg Tech with a deemed value of $200,000.

A final provision of the April 1993 Agreement assigned and transferred ownership of any patents, inventions, copyrights, know-how, technical data, and related types of intellectual property conceived, developed or created by Rand Energy or its associated companies either to us which results or derives from the direct or indirect use of the Original Engine and/or RadMax® Engine technologies by Rand Energy.

We entered into a letter of understanding dated December 13, 1993, with Rand Energy and Reg Tech, as grantors, and West Virginia University Research Corporation ("WVURC"), the grantors agreed that WVURC shall own 5% of all patented technology relating to the Original Engine and the RadMax® Engine. WVURC performed extensive analysis and testing on the RadMax® engine. WVURC provided support and development of the RadMax® Engine including research, development, testing evaluation and creation of intellectual property. In addition, WVURC introduced us to potential customers and licensees.   Rand Energy and Reg Tech are entitled to all intellectual property developed by WVURC relating to the RadMax® Engine.

U.S. patent No. 5,429,084 was granted on July 4, 1995, to the inventor, Brian Cherry, Patrick Badgley and four other individuals for various improvements incorporated in the RadMax® Engine. The patent has been assigned to us. U.S. Patent 4,401,070 for the Original Engine was issued on August 30, 1983, to James McCann and Rand Energy holds the marketing rights.

The RadMax® Engine is composed basically of a disk shaped rotor with drive shaft, which turns, and the housing or stator, which remains stationary. The rotor has two or more vanes that are mounted perpendicular to the direction of rotation and slide back and forth through it. As the rotor turns, the ends of the vanes ride along the insides of the stator housing which have wave-like depressions, causing the vanes to slide back and forth. In the process of turning and sliding,
 
12

 
 

 

combustion chambers are formed between the rotor, stator walls and vanes where the fuel/air mixture is injected, compressed, burned and exhausted.

Two additional patents have been issued for improvements to the engine including: U.S. Patents 5,509,793 “Rotary Device with Slidable Vane Supports) issued April 24, 1996 and 5,551,853 “Axial Vane Rotary Device and Sealing System Therefor) issued September 3, 1996.

A Canadian Patent was issued for the Rand Cam™ Rotary Engine effective October 5, 2004.  The term of the patent is twenty years from the date of the filing on December 11, 1992.

On November 29, 2004 a world wide license agreement, excluding the rights for the United States of America that are held by REGI U.S., Inc. for the Rand Cam™ technology was completed with Rand Energy.   Reg Tech agreed to pay a 5% net profit interest and make annual payments of $50,000.  Reg Tech is responsible for 50% of the costs for development and production of the Rand Cam™ technology.

In December 2005, we completed an agreement to obtain the rights to the RadMax technology preliminary patent application, the RadMax trademark, including study notes, drawings and parts list from Radian Inc.

In exchange for these property rights, we will provide an unconditional release to Radian for all obligations under the UAV license agreement dated April 24, 2002 and modified May 14, 2004.  Completing this agreement will allow us to own 100% interest in the rights to the new RadMax rotary design. Radian agrees to provide all the work completed to date, including preliminary patent applications and all hardware.

The world wide patents cover Canada and several countries in Europe, namely, Germany, France, Great Britain, and Italy.  Reg Tech, together with REGI U.S., Inc., is in the process of testing a RadMax® Engine for a generator application for hybrid electric cars.  Additionally, our licensee for the 42 H.P. production model diesel RadMax® is currently completing the engine for unmanned aerial applications for the U.S. military.

Royalty Payments

The August 1992 Agreement calls for us to pay Rand Energy semi-annually a royalty of 5% of any net profits to be derived by us from revenues received as a result of its license of the Original Engine. The August 1992 Agreement also calls for us to pay Brian Cherry a royalty of 1% semi-annually any net profits derived by us from revenue received as a result of our licensing the Original Engine.

Other provisions of the April 1993 Agreement call for is (a) to pay to Rand Energy a continuing royalty of 5% of the net profits derived from the Technology by us and (b) to pay to Brian Cherry a continuing royalty of 1% of the net profits derived by us from the Technology.

Pursuant to the letter of understanding dated December 13, 1993, among us, Rand Energy, Reg Tech and WVURC, WVURC will receive 5% of all net profits from sales, licenses, royalties or income derived from the patented technology relating to the Original Engine and the RadMax® Engine.

No royalties are to be paid to Alliant or Adiabatics, Inc.

RISK FACTORS

You should carefully consider the following risks and the other information in this Report and our other filings with the SEC before you decide to invest in us or to maintain or increase your investment.

The risks and uncertainties described below are not the only ones facing us. Additional risks and uncertainties may also adversely impact and impair our business. If any of the following risks actually occur, our business, results of operations, or financial condition would likely suffer. In such case, the trading price of our common stock could decline, and you may lose all or part of your investment.

Developmental Stage Company.  We were incorporated on July 27, 1992.  We are a development stage company.  In a development stage company, management devotes most of its activities to establishing a new business. Planned principal activities have not yet produced significant revenues and we have suffered recurring operating losses as is normal in development stage companies. These factors raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our ability to emerge from the development stage with respect to our planned principal business activity is dependent upon our successful efforts to raise additional equity financing, receive funding from affiliates and controlling shareholders, and develop a market for our products.

Ability to develop product.  We have no assurance at this time that a commercially feasible design will ever be perfected, or if it is, that it will become profitable. Our profitability and survival will depend upon our ability to develop a technically and commercially feasible product which will be accepted by end users. The RadMax® Engine which we are developing must be technologically superior or at least equal to other engines that competitors offer and must have a competitive price/performance ratio to adequately penetrate its potential markets. If we are not able to achieve this condition or if we do not remain technologically competitive, we may be unprofitable and our investors could lose their entire investment. There can be no assurance that we or potential licensees will be able to achieve and maintain end user acceptance of our engine.

Negative Shareholders' Equity.  We have a negative shareholders equity as of the date of this 10-K.  Our ability to continue as a going business will be dependent upon our ability to raise additional capital and/or generate revenues from operations.

Need for Additional Capital.  We rely on our ability to raise capital through the sale of our securities.  Our the ultimate success will depend upon our ability to raise additional capital or to have other par­ties bear a portion of the required costs to further develop or exploit the potential market for our products.  Reg Tech and REGI have agreed to provide the necessary funds for the development of the RadMax® Engine prototypes and our other operations until joint venture or license agreements can be completed.

Dependence on Consultants and Outside Manufacturing Facilities.  Since our present plans do not provide for a significant technical staff or the establishment of manufacturing facilities, we will be primarily dependent on others to perform these functions and to pro­vide the requisite expertise and quality control.  There is no assurance that such persons or institutions will be available when needed at af­fordable prices.  It will likely cost more to have independent companies do research and manufacturing than for us to handle these re­sources.

Product/Market Acceptance.  Our profitability and survival will depend upon our ability to develop a technically and commercially feasible product which will be accepted by end users.  The RadMax® Engine which we are developing must be technologically superior or at least equal to other engines which our competitors offer and must have a competitive price/performance ratio
 
14

 
 

 

to adequately penetrate our potential markets. A number of rotary engines have been designed over the past 70 years but only one, the Wankel, has been able to achieve mechanical practicality and any significant market acceptance.  If we are not able to achieve this condition or if we do not remain technologically competitive, we may be unprofitable and our investors could lose their entire investment.  There can be no assurance that we or our potential licensees will be able to achieve and maintain end user acceptance of our engine.

No Formal Market Survey.  We have not conducted a formal market survey but statistics available on the aircraft, marine and industrial markets alone indicate an annual market potential of more than one hundred million dollars.

Competition.  While not a highly competitive business in terms of numbers of competitors, the business of developing engines of a new design and attempting to either license or produce them is nonetheless difficult be­cause most existing engine producers are large, well financed companies which are very concerned about maintaining their market position.  There is no assurance that we will be successful in meeting or over­coming our current or future competition.

Protection of Intellectual Property.  Our business depends on the protection of our intellectual property and may suffer if we are unable to adequately protect our intellectual property. The success of our business depends on our ability to patent our engine. Currently, we have been granted several U.S. Patents. We cannot provide assurance that our patents will not be invalidated, circumvented or challenged, that the rights granted under the patents will give us competitive advantages or that our patent applications will be granted.

History of Losses. We have a history of operating losses, and an accumulated deficit, as of April 30, 2009, of $11,423,153.  Our ability to generate revenues and profits is subject to the risks and uncertainties encountered by development stage companies.

Our future revenues and profitability are unpredictable. We currently have no signed contracts that will produce revenue and we do not have an estimate as to when we will be entering into such contracts.  Furthermore, we cannot provide assurance that management will be successful in negotiating such contracts.

Rapid Technological Changes could Adversely Affect Our Business.  The market for our engines is characterized by rapidly changing technology, evolving industry standards and changing customer demands.  Accordingly, if we are unable to adapt to rapidly changing technologies and to adapt our product to evolving industry standards, our business will be adversely affected.

Management and Conflicts of Interest.  Our present officers and directors have other unrelated full-time positions or part-time employment.  Some officers and directors will be available to participate in management decisions on a part-time or as-needed basis only.  Our management may devote time to other companies or projects which may compete directly or indirectly with us.

Need for Additional Key Personnel.  At the present, we employ no full time employees.  Our success will depend, in part, upon the ability to attract and retain qualified employees.  We believe that we will be able to attract competent employees, but no assurance can be given that we will be successful in this regard.  If we are unable to engage and retain the necessary personnel, our business would be materially and adversely affected.

Indemnification of Officers and Directors for Securities Liabilities.  Our Bylaws provide that we may indemnify any Director, Officer, agent and/or employee as to those liabilities and on those terms and conditions as are specified in the Oregon Business Corporation Act.  Further, we may purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any such persons whether or not we would have the
 
15

 
 

 

power to indemnify such person against the liability insured against.  This could result in substantial expenditures by us and prevent any recovery from such Officers, Directors, agents and employees for losses incurred by us as a result of their actions.  Further, we have been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission, indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the 1933 Act and is therefore, unenforceable.

General Factors.  Our areas of business may be affected from time to time by such matters as changes in general economic conditions, changes in laws and regulations, taxes, tax laws, prices and costs, and other factors of a general nature which may have an adverse effect on our business.

Limited Public Market for the common stock.  At present, only a limited public market exists for the common stock on the over-the-counter bulletin board maintained by the National Association of Securities Dealers and there is no assurance that a more active trading market will develop, or, if developed, that it will be sustained.

Estimates and Financial Statements.  The information in this Form 10-K consists of and relies upon evaluation and estimates made by management.  Even though management believes in good faith that such estimates are reasonable, based upon market studies and data provided by sources knowledgeable in the field, there can be no assurance that such estimates will ultimately be found to be accurate or even based upon accurate evaluations.

No Foreseeable Dividends.  We have not paid dividends on our common stock and do not anticipate paying dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future.

Possible Volatility of Securities Prices.  The market price for our common stock traded on the over-the-counter bulletin board has been highly volatile since it began trading and will likely to continue to behave in this manner in the future.  Factors such as our operating results and other announcements regarding our development work and business operations may have a significant impact on the market price of our securities.  Additionally, market prices for securities of many smaller companies have experienced wide fluctuations not necessarily related to the operating performance of the companies themselves.

GOVERNMENT REGULATIONS

Our engine products including the spark ignited engine, Diesel engine and Cold Turbine engine will be subject to various exhaust emissions standards depending upon the application and the country in which it is produced and/or sold.  As each product becomes ready for sale, it will be necessary to have the engine certified according to the standards in effort at that time.

DEPENDENCE ON CERTAIN CUSTOMERS

Although we have no key customers at the present time, we expect that if our development work is successful, we will likely become dependent, at least initially, upon one or very few key customers. Such dependence could prove to be risky in the event that one or more such potential customers were to be lost and not replaced.

RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT

The basic research and development work on the RadMax® Engine and other products is being coordinated and funded by Reg Tech and REGI U.S., Inc. and funded as to 50% each.
 
16

 
 

 

We plan to contract with outside individuals, institutions and companies to perform most of the additional research and development work which we may require to benefit from our rights to the RadMax® Engine and other products.

During the last two fiscal years, we have incurred a total of $293,134 in research and development expenses.  During the past year, development costs have been assumed by a third party who is evaluating the RadMax® Engine design.

COSTS AND EFFECTS OF COMPLIANCE WITH ENVIRONMENTAL LAWS

At the present time there is no direct financial or competitive effect upon our business as a result of any need to comply with any federal, state or local provisions which have been enacted or adopted regulating the discharge of materials into the environment, or otherwise relating to the protection of the environment.

NUMBER OF TOTAL EMPLOYEES AND NUMBER OF FULL-TIME EMPLOYEES

We currently have three consultants directly involved in technical development work on the RadMax® Engine.  We expect to hire additional employees for those positions which we deem necessary to fill, as needs arise. Most additional employees are expected to be in technical and licensing/marketing positions.

ITEM 2.   DESCRIPTION OF PROPERTY

We own no properties.  We currently utilize office space in a commercial business park building located in Richmond, British Columbia, Canada, a suburb of Vancouver, shared by several companies related by common officers and directors.  We do not pay rent for this office space.  The present facilities are believed to be adequate for meeting our needs for the immediate future.  However we expect that we will likely acquire separate space when the level of business activity requires us to do so.  We do not anticipate that we will have any difficulty in obtaining such additional space at favorable rates.  In addition, we have access to a facility for research and development leased by Reg Tech.  This facility is also in Richmond, British Columbia, Canada.

On November 13, 2006, the Company entered into a rental agreement for office space in Washington State for a term of one year at a cost of approximately $300 per month.  This agreement was not renewed and during 2009 no rent was paid for a Spokane office.

There are no current plans to purchase or lease any properties in the near future.

ITEM 3.   LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

We are not a party to any legal proceedings or litigation, nor are we aware that any litigation is presently being threatened or contemplated against us or any officer, director or affiliate.

ITEM 4.   SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS

There was no matter submitted to a vote by our security holders during the fourth quarter of our fiscal year ended April 30, 2009, through the solicitation of proxies or otherwise.

ITEM 6:   MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATIONS

This report contains forward-looking statements. The words, "anticipate", "believe", expect", "plan", "intend", "estimate", "project", "could", "may", "foresee", and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with our Financial Statements and other financial information included elsewhere in this report which contains, in addition to historical information, forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results could differ materially from the results discussed in the forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include those discussed below, as well as those discussed elsewhere in this report.

PLAN OF OPERATIONS

We were organized under the laws of the State of Oregon on July 27, 1992.  Our principal business operations are conducted in British Columbia, Canada.

We are a development stage company engaged in the business of developing and commercially exploiting an improved axial vane type rotary engine known as the RadMax® Engine.

As a development stage company, we devote most of our activities to establishing our business. Planned principal activities have not yet produced significant revenues and we have a working capital deficit.  We have undergone mounting losses to date totaling $11,423,153 and further losses are expected until we complete a licensing agreement with a manufacturer and reseller.  At April 30, 2009, we had working capital deficiency of $754,665. Our only assets are related party receivables totaling $260,136 and prepaid expenses, totaling $4,500. These factors raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.  Our ability to emerge from the development stage with respect to our planned principal business activity is dependent upon our
 
20

 
 

 

successful efforts to raise additional equity financing, receive funding from affiliates and controlling shareholders, and develop a market for our products.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Results of operations for the year ended April 30, 2009 ("2009”) compared to the year ended April 30, 2008 ("2008")

There were no revenues from product licensing during 2009 and 2008.

The Company had a net loss of $994,466 in 2009, compared to a net loss of $1,236,583 in 2008 resulting in a decrease of $242,117.  This decrease in 2009 was mainly due to a focused effort to reduce costs while completing testing and design of the RadMax® engine.  Investor relations decreased from $177,610 in 2008 to $92,351 in 2009 for a difference of $85,259 as the Company did not renew consulting contracts and focused on publications.  Wages and benefits decreased from $165,752 in 2008 to $97,501 in 2009 resulting in a variance of $68,251 with the release of an employee.  Travel declined from $96,776 in 2008 to $34,568 in 2009 providing a decrease of $62,208 as the Company focused less on promotion during the economic downturn in the investment market.  Our advertising expenses decreased by $39,558 to $1,200 in 2009 as compared to $40,758 in 2008 as contracts were not renewed.  Offsetting these decreases was an increase in stock-based compensation of $69,435 to $291,857 in 2009 and an increase in research and development of $23,240 to $158,187 in 2009, as the Company hired specialized consultants to complete testing and design of RadMax® engine.  The majority of prototype construction and testing costs continue to be borne by potential licensees and manufacturers.

During the year ended April 30, 2009, the Company extended the term on 75,000 options for a further three years.  The fair value of the original options was deducted from the fair value of the modified options for a difference of $5,912.

During the fiscal year ended April 30, 2009, the Company granted 250,000 common stock warrants with a fair value of $52,042 in accordance with the terms of the Option Agreement as described in Note 4 of the financial statements.

As of April 30, 2009, the Company owed related companies controlled or significantly influenced by the President of the Company $863,194 (April 30, 2008 - $546,397) comprised of advances and/or expenses paid on behalf of the Company.  The amounts are non-interest bearing, unsecured and without specific terms of repayment. The Company had amounts due from related parties totaling $260,136 at April 30, 2009 (April 30, 2008 - $394,963).

We had a basic and diluted loss of $0.04 per share in 2009 compared to a basic and diluted net loss per share of $0.04 for 2008.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

During 2009, with the downturn in the financial market, we financed our operations mainly through proceeds of $451,624 from related parties.

During 2008, we financed our operations mainly through proceeds of $98,791 from the exercise of stock options and share purchase warrants, as well as net proceeds of $537,753 from a private placement offering.

During 2008, we raised $571,250 pursuant to a private placement of 833,950 units. The Units were issued at a purchase price of US$1 per Unit for cash proceeds of $537,753, net of issuance
 
21

 
 

 

costs of $33,497. Each Unit consisted of one share common stock of the Company and one warrant. Each warrant may be exercised to enable the investor to purchase one additional share of Common Stock at US$1.50 within five years of the date of issuance to the purchaser. Also during 2008, we raised $12,125 from the exercise of 38,500 stock options, and $86,666 from the exercise of 99,166 share purchase warrants. These funds raised do not provide enough working capital to fund ongoing operations for the next twelve months. We may also raise additional funds through the exercise of warrants and stock options.

We received funding in 2009 from our affiliated companies (common officers and directors) and our 17% shareholder, Rand Energy and Reg Tech, the controlling shareholder of Rand Energy. The total amount owing to related parties is $863,194 or 85% of total liabilities as of April 30, 2009.  This funding was necessary with a downturn in the financial market to complete the RadMax engine and place the Company in a position to attain profit.  The balances owing to related parties are non-interest bearing, unsecured and repayable on demand.  Our affiliated companies have indicated that they will not be demanding repayment of these funds during the next fiscal year and will advance, or pay expenses on behalf of the Company if further funds are needed.

As of April 30, 2009, we had a working capital deficiency of $754,665.  We receive interim support from our ultimate parent company and will raise additional funds from equity financing which was negotiated.  We also plan to raise funds through loans from a major shareholder (Rand Energy).  Rand Energy owns 2,503,141 shares and plans to sell shares as needed to meet our ongoing funding requirements if traditional equity sources of financing prove to be insufficient.

The audited financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going-concern.  As discussed in Note 2 to the financial statements, the Company has no revenues and limited capital, which together raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going-concern. Management plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 2.  The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

The Company plans to raise funds through loans from Rand Energy. Further, Rand Energy owns approximately 9% of the shares of the Company, and may sell shares as needed to meet ongoing funding requirements if traditional equity sources of financing prove to be insufficient.  The Company also receives interim support from affiliated companies and plans to raise additional capital through debt and/or equity financings.  The Company has an equity line of credit whereby the investor agreed to purchase up to $10,000,000 of the Company’s common stock. (See Note 4 to our financial statements).  The Company may also raise additional funds through the exercise of warrants and stock options, if exercised.

We have been successful in the past in acquiring capital through the issuance of shares of our Common Stock, and through advances from related parties.

We anticipate that our cash requirements for the fiscal year ending April 30, 2010 will remain consistent with those for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2009.  These costs are identified as master design integrator, prototype fabrication, and labour expense, estimated approximately as US$200,000 each, with planned expenditure over the next 6 months.

ITEM 8A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

Disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act"), are controls and other procedures of the Company that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Act is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.  As required by Rule 13a-15 under the Exchange Act, the Company carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of its disclosure controls and procedures as of April 30, 2009, being the date of the Company’s most recently completed fiscal year end. This evaluation was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including Mr. John Robertson, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, and Mr. James Vandeberg, the Company’s Chief Financial Officer.

As of April 30, 2009, management conducted an evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Based upon that evaluation, management has concluded that our current disclosure controls and procedures are not effective as of April 30, 2009.
 
The conclusion that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective was due to the presence of material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting as identified below.  Management anticipates that such disclosure controls and procedures will not be effective until the material weaknesses are remediated. Our Company intends to remediate the material weaknesses as set out below.

The Company’s board of directors and audit committee are responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting.  The Company’s internal control system was designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation and fair presentation of its consolidated financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.

The Company’s Chief Executive Officer, Mr. John Robertson, and the Company’s Chief Financial Officer, Mr. James Vandeberg, assessed the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and Rule 15d-(f) promulgated under the Exchange Act) as of April 30, 2009.

Based on management’s evaluation, we concluded our internal control over financial reporting was not effective as at April 30, 2009 due to inadequate segregation of duties and effective risk assessment.
 
23
 

 
 

 

We plan to take steps to enhance and improve the design of our internal controls over financial reporting. During the period covered by this annual report, we have not been able to remediate the material weaknesses identified above. To remediate such weaknesses, we plan to appoint additional qualified personnel to address inadequate segregation of duties and ineffective risk management, and adopt sufficient written policies and procedures for accounting and financial reporting. These remediation efforts are largely dependent upon securing additional financing to cover the costs of implementing the changes required. If we are unsuccessful in securing such funds, remediation efforts may be adversely affected.
 
Notwithstanding the foregoing, all internal control systems, no matter how well designed, have inherent limitations. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective may not prevent or detect misstatements and can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

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

Audit Committee

Our Audit Committee consists of three Directors of the Company – John Robertson, James Vandeberg and Jennifer Lorette.

We do not currently have a financial expert in our audit committee due to our relatively small size.  In 2009, we relied upon the services of a chartered accounting firm in Vancouver, BC, Canada, to prepare our interim unaudited quarterly consolidated financial statements.

Moreover, the audit committee is comprised of seasoned business professionals, whereby two members each have over 30 years of experience in the investment business, are board members of several corporations and one of the members is an attorney whose practice focuses on the corporate finance area, with an emphasis on securities and acquisitions.

Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance

Based solely upon a review of Forms 3, 4 and 5 furnished to us, other than Messrs. Vandeberg, Cherry, Petersen and Grisar who furnished us with no forms during the year, none of our officers, directors or beneficial owners of more than ten percent of the common stock failed to file on a timely basis reports required to be filed by Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act during the most recent fiscal year.

Code of Ethics
 
26
 
 

 

The Board of Directors does not have any committees.  Our Board of Directors has not adopted a code of ethics that applies to our principal executive officer, principal financial officer.  We believe that due to the small size of the Company and existing systems we have in place that there is no real benefit to having a formal code of ethics.

Directors are subject to the laws of the State of Oregon, whereby they are required to act honestly, in good faith and in the best interests of the Company.

ITEM 10.  EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

STATEMENT OF EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

The Company is required, under applicable securities legislation in Canada, to disclose to its Shareholders details of compensation paid to its directors and officers.  The following fairly reflects all material information regarding compensation paid by the Company to its directors and officers, which information has been disclosed to the Company's Shareholders in accordance with applicable Canadian law.

Executive Compensation

Compensation Discussion and Analysis

The Company’s executive officers make recommendations to the board of directors regarding compensation policies and the compensation of senior officers.  The Company does not have a Compensation Committee.  The compensation of the senior executives comprises two components; namely, a base salary or consulting fees and the grant of stock options pursuant to the Company’s stock option plan which is more particularly outlined below under the Option-based Awards section.   These forms of compensation are chosen to attract, retain and motivate the performance of selected directors, officers, employees or consultants of the Company of high caliber and potential.  Each senior executive is employed for his or her skills to perform specific tasks and the base salary and number of options is fixed accordingly.

Option-based Awards

The grant of option-based awards to the senior executives is determined by the recommendation of executive officers to the board of directors pursuant to the terms of the stock option plan referred to below. Previous grants of option-based awards are taken into account when considering new grants.

The options are always granted at market price. The valuation of the fair value of the options at the time of the grant is based on the Black Scholes model and includes the following assumptions: weighted average risk free rate, weighted average expected life, expected volatility and dividend yield.

During the year ended April 30, 2009, no option-based awards for executives were granted.  However, the Company extended the term on 75,000 options for a further three years to an executive.  The fair value of the original options was deducted from the fair value of the modified options for a difference of $5,912.

ITEM 12.  CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS, AND DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCE

Pursuant to the August 1992 Agreement we issued 5,700,000 shares of our common stock at a deemed value of $0.01 per share to Rand Energy Group Inc., a privately held British Columbia corporation in exchange for certain valuable rights, technology, information, and other tangible and intangible assets relating to the United States rights to the Original Engine. Rand Energy is owned 51% by Reg Technologies Inc., a British Columbia corporation listed on the TSX Venture Exchange ("Reg Tech"), and 49% by Rand Cam-Engine Corp. Reg Tech's President is also our President and its Vice President is also Vice President of the Company.

We also agreed to pay semi-annually to Rand Energy a royalty of 5% of any net profits to be derived by us from revenues received as a result of its license of the Original Engine.

In the April 1993 Agreement, an amendment to a previous Amendment Agreement dated November 23, 1992, between Rand Energy, Reg Tech and Brian Cherry (a former officer and director) and an original agreement dated July 30, 1992, between Rand Energy, Reg Tech and Brian Cherry, Cherry agreed to: (a) sell, transfer and assign to Rand Energy all his right, title and interest in and to the technology related to the RadMax® Engine, including all pending and future patent applications in respect of the Technology for all countries except the United States of America, together with any improvements, changes or other variations to the Technology; (b) sell, transfer and assign to us (then called Sky Technologies Inc.), all his right, title and interest in and to the Technology, including all pending and future patent applications in respect of the Technology for the United States of America, together with any improvements, changes or other variations to the Technology.

Other provisions of the April 1993 Agreement call for us (a) to pay to Rand Energy a continuing royalty of 5% of the net profits derived from the Technology by us and (b) to pay to Brian Cherry a continuing royalty of 1% of the net profits derived from the Technology by us.

A final provision of the April 1993 Agreement assigns and transfers ownership to us of any patents, inventions, copyrights, know-how, technical data, and related types of intellectual property conceived, developed or created by Rand Energy or its associated companies either prior to or subsequent to the date of the agreement, which results or derives from the direct or indirect use of the Original Engine and/or RadMax® Engine technologies by Rand Energy.

The terms of the agreements referenced above were negotiated by the parties in non-arm's-length transactions but were deemed by the parties involved to be fair and equitable under the circumstances existing at the time.

Rand Energy Group Inc., a privately held British Columbia corporation which, is controlled 51% by Reg Technologies Inc., a publicly held British Columbia corporation ("Reg Tech") and 49% by Rand Cam-Engine Corp.  SMR Investments Ltd., a British Columbia corporation, holds a controlling interest in Reg Technologies Inc.  Since May 1977, Mr. Robertson has been President and a member of the Board of Directors of SMR Investments Ltd.  Susanne M. Robertson, Mr. Robertson's wife, owns SMR Investment Ltd. Rand Cam-Engine Corp. is a privately held company whose stock is reportedly majority-owned and controlled by James McCann and the balance by several other shareholders.
 
In April, 2007 a wholly-owned US subsidiary, RadMax Technologies, Inc, a Washington corporation, was formed with the initial focus on winning U.S. military contracts for custom versions of RadMax® products, as well as research and development funding to tailor RadMax® products to meet specific requirements defined by the U.S. military services. RadMax® products include RadMax® internal and external combustion diesel engines, RadMax® pumps, and RadMax® compressors.  James Vandeberg, a director and Chief Financial Officer of the Company is the president and sole director of RadMax Technologies, Inc.  The headquarters for the corporation is located at 601 Union Street, Suite 4500, Seattle, WA 98101.

Our Audit Committee consists of the entire Board of Directors of the Company and is comprised of seasoned business professionals, whereby two members each have over 30 years of experience in the investment business, are board members of several corporations and one of the members is an attorney whose practice focuses on the corporate finance area, with an emphasis on securities and acquisitions. On this basis, we believe that the audit committee has adequate resources available to it when financial expertise and advice are necessary.
 
Despite being comprised of our entire Board of Directors, our Audit Committee assists the Board in fulfilling its responsibilities relating to the Company’s corporate accounting and reporting practices.  The Audit Committee is responsible for ensuring that management has established appropriate processes for monitoring the Company’s systems and procedures for financial reporting and controls, reviewing all financial information in disclosure documents; monitoring the performance and fees and expenses of the Company’s external auditors and recommending external auditors for appointment by shareholders.  The Audit Committee is also responsible for reviewing the Company’s annual financial statements prior to approval by the Board and release to the public.  Currently the members are John Robertson, James Vandeberg and Jennifer Lorette.
 
 
Upon recommendation of our Audit Committee, on September 25, 2008, our board of directors terminated Smythe Ratcliffe LLP, Chartered Accountants as our principal accountant, who audited our consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2008, and appointed James Stafford, Inc., Chartered Accountants as the Company’s new principal accountant.  On July 8, 2009, James Stafford, Inc., Chartered Accountants, resigned as the Company’s principal accountants.  Upon recommendation of our Audit Committee, on July 15, 2009, our board of directors appointed Malone & Bailey PC, Certified Public Accountants, as the Company’s new independent principal accountant (see the Company’s Form 8-K dated October 1, 2008, 8-K/A dated October 6, 2008, 8-K/A dated October 20, 2008, Form 8-K dated July 14, 2009 and the 8-K dated July 17, 2009, filed on EDGAR).
 
 
In the table above, and the disclosure below, “audit fees” are fees billed by the Company’s external auditor for services provided in auditing the Company’s annual financial statements for the subject year. “Audit-related fees” are fees not included in audit fees that are billed by the auditor for assurance and related services that are reasonably related to the performance of the audit or review of the Company’s financial statements. “Tax fees” are fees billed by the auditor for professional services rendered for tax compliance, tax advice and tax planning. “All other fees” are fees billed by the auditor for products and services not included in the foregoing categories.
 
Audit Fees
The aggregate fees billed by Smythe Ratcliffe LLP, Chartered Accountants, James Stafford, Inc., Chartered Accountants, and Malone & Bailey PC, Certified Public Accountants for professional services rendered for the audit of our annual financial statements and review of financial statements included in our Form 10-Qs or services that are normally provided by the accountant in connection with statutory and regulatory filings or engagements for the fiscal years ended April 30, 2009 and 2008 were $12,000 and $40,443, respectively.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

TO THE DIRECTORS AND STOCKHOLDERS OF REGI U.S., INC.
 (A Development Stage Company)

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of REGI U.S., Inc. (A Development Stage Company) as at April 30, 2008 and 2007 and the consolidated statements of operations, stockholders' equity (deficit) and cash flows for the years ended April 30, 2008 and 2007, and the period from July 27, 1992 (date of inception) to April 30, 2008. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. The statements of operations, stockholders’ equity (deficit) and cash flows from July 27, 1992 (date of inception) to April 30, 2005 were audited by other auditors whose report dated August 9, 2005 expressed an unqualified opinion, with an explanatory paragraph discussing the Company’s ability to continue as a going-concern. Our opinion on the statements of operations, stockholders’ equity (deficit) and cash flows from inception to April 30, 2008, insofar as it relates to amounts for prior periods through April 30, 2005, is solely based on the reports of other auditors.

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

In our opinion, based on our audits and the reports of other auditors, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as at April 30, 2008 and 2007 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years ended April 30, 2008 and 2007, and the period from July 27, 1992 (date of inception) to April 30, 2008 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going-concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, the Company has no revenues and limited capital, which together raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going-concern. Management plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 1. These financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors of REGI U.S., Inc.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of REGI U.S., Inc., (A Development Stage Company) as of April 30, 2009 and the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in stockholders’ equity (deficit) and cash flows for the year then ended. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audit. The statements of operations, stockholders’ equity (deficit) and cash flows from July 27, 1992 (date of inception) to April 30, 2005 were audited by other auditors whose report dated August 9, 2005 expressed an unqualified opinion, with an explanatory paragraph discussing the Company’s ability to continue as a going-concern. In addition, the statements of operations, stockholders’ equity (deficit) and cash flows from inception to April 30, 2008 were audited by other auditors whose report dated July 18, 2008 expressed an unqualified opinion, with an explanatory paragraph discussing the Company’s ability to continue as a going-concern. Our opinion on the statements of operations, stockholders’ equity (deficit) and cash flows from inception to April 30, 2009, insofar as it relates to amounts for prior periods through April 30, 2008, is solely based on the reports of other auditors.

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

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of the Company as of April 30, 2009 and the consolidated results of its operations and its cash flows for the year then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has negative working capital and suffered recurring losses from operations, which raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans regarding those matters are described in Note 2. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

REGI U.S., Inc.
(A Development Stage Company)
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

NOTE 1.                                   ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Nature of Business

REGI U.S., Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated in the State of Oregon, U.S.A., on July 27, 1992.

The Company is a development stage enterprise, as defined in Statements of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 7, “Accounting and Reporting by Development Stage Enterprises”.  The Company is engaged in the business of developing and commercially exploiting an improved axial vane type rotary engine known as the Rand Cam/Direct Charge Engine (the “RC/DC Engine”) in the U.S. The worldwide marketing and intellectual rights, other than in the U.S., are held by Reg Technologies, Inc. (“Reg”), a major shareholder, which owns 12% of the Company’s issued, and outstanding, stock and formerly controlled the Company by way of a voting trust arrangement, which was cancelled on April 30, 2008. The Company owns the U.S. marketing and intellectual rights and has a project cost sharing agreement, whereby it will fund 50% of the further development of the RC/DC Engine and Reg will fund 50%.  No revenue has been derived during the organization period and the Company’s planned principle operations have not commenced.

The Company formed a wholly-owned subsidiary, Rad Max Technologies, Inc. (“Rad Max”) on April 10, 2007 in the State of Washington.
 
    Significant Accounting Policies

The following is a summary of significant accounting policies used in the preparation of these consolidated financial statements.
Principles of consolidation

These consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, and its wholly owned subsidiary, Rad Max, since its date of incorporation on April 10, 2007. All inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated on consolidation.

Fiscal period

The Company’s fiscal year ends on April 30.

Reclassifications
 
50
 

 
 

 

Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation.

Risks and uncertainties

The Company operates in an emerging industry that is subject to market acceptance and technological change. The Company’s operations are subject to significant risks and uncertainties, including financial, operational, technological and other risks associated with operating an emerging business, including the potential risk of business failure.

Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less.

Financial instruments

Fair Value

The carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, amounts due to related parties, bank indebtedness, accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate their fair values because of the short-term maturity of these financial instruments.

Interest Rate Risk

The Company is not exposed to significant interest rate risk due to the short-term maturity of its monetary assets and liabilities.

Credit Risk

The Company’s financial asset that is exposed to credit risk consists primarily of cash.  To manage the risk, cash is placed with major financial institutions.

Currency Risk

The Company’s functional and reporting currency is the U.S. dollar. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated using the exchange rate prevailing at the balance sheet date. Gains and losses arising on translation or settlement of foreign currency denominated transactions or balances are included in the determination of income. Foreign currency transactions are primarily undertaken in Canadian dollars. The Company has not, to the date of these consolidated financial statements, entered into derivative instruments to offset the impact of foreign currency fluctuations.

Income taxes

Deferred income taxes are reported for timing differences between items of income or expense reported in the financial statements and those reported for income tax purposes in accordance with SFAS No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes”, which requires the use of the asset/liability method of accounting for income taxes. Deferred income taxes and tax benefits are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their
 
51

 
 

 

respective tax bases, and for tax losses and credit carry-forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The Company provides for deferred taxes for the estimated future tax effects attributable to temporary differences and carry-forwards when realization is more likely than not.

Basic and diluted net loss per share

The Company computes net income (loss) per share in accordance with SFAS No. 128, “Earnings per Share”. SFAS No. 128 requires presentation of both basic and diluted earnings per share (“EPS”) on the face of the income statement. Basic EPS is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common shareholders (numerator) by the weighted average number of shares outstanding (denominator) during the period. Diluted EPS gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period using the treasury stock method and convertible preferred stock using the if-converted method. In computing diluted EPS, the average stock price for the period is used in determining the number of shares assumed to be purchased from the exercise of stock options or warrants. Diluted EPS excludes all dilutive potential shares if their effect is anti-dilutive.

Stock-based compensation

Effective January 1, 2006, the Company adopted the provisions of SFAS No. 123 (R), “Share-Based Payment (as amended),” which establishes the accounting treatment for transactions in which an entity exchanges its equity instruments for goods or services. Under the provisions of SFAS No. 123 (R), share-based payment compensation is measured at the grant date, based on the fair value of the award, and is recognized as an expense over the requisite service period (generally the vesting period).The Company accounts for share-based payments to non-employees in accordance with guidance provided by Emerging Issues Task Force Issue No. 96-18, “Accounting for Equity Instruments That Are Issued to Other Than Employees for Acquiring, or in Conjunction with Selling, Goods or Services.”

Research and development

Research and development costs are expensed as incurred.

Use of estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenditures during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates.  The Company regularly evaluates estimates and assumptions related to useful life and recoverability of long-lived assets, stock-based compensation and deferred income tax asset valuation allowances. The Company bases its estimates and assumptions on current facts, historical experience and various other factors that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities, and the accrual of costs and expenses that are not readily apparent from other sources. The actual results experienced by the Company may differ materially and adversely from the Company’s estimates. To the

extent there are material differences between the estimates and the actual results, future results of operations will be affected.

Recent accounting pronouncements

In June 2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 167, Amendments to FASB Interpretation No. 46(R) (“SFAS 167”).  SFAS No. 167 is intended to establish general standards of financial reporting for companies with variable interest entities.  It requires timely and useful disclosure of information related to the Company’s involvement with variable interest entities.  This disclosure should alert all users to the effects on specific provisions of FASB Interpretation No. 46 (revised December 2003), Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities, related to the changes to the special-purpose entity proposal in FASB Statement No. 166, Accounting for Transfers of Financial Assets, and the treatment of specific provisions of Interpretation 46(R).  SFAS No. 167 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after November 15, 2009.  The Company has determined that the adoption of SFAS No. 167 will have no impact will have on its consolidated financial statements.

In June 2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 166, Accounting for Transfers of Financial Assets—an amendment of FASB Statement (“SFAS 166”).  SFAS No. 166 is intended to establish standards of financial reporting for the transfer of assets and transferred assets to improve the relevance, representational faithfulness, and comparability.  SFAS 166 was established to clarify derecognition of assets under FASB Statement No. 140, Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities.  SFAS No. 166 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after November 15, 2009.  The Company has determined that the adoption of SFAS No. 166 will have no impact will have on its consolidated financial statements.

In May 2009, the FSAB issued SFAS No. 165, Subsequent Events (“SFAS No. 165”). SFAS No. 165 is intended to establish general standards of accounting for and disclosure of events that occur after the balance sheet date, but before financial statements are issued or are available to be issued.  It requires the disclosure of the date through which an entity has evaluated subsequent events and the basis for that date–that is, whether that date represents the date the financial statements were issued or were available to be issued. This disclosure should alert all users of financial statements that an entity has not evaluated subsequent events after that date in the set of financial statements being presented.  SFAS No. 165 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years and interim periods ending after June 15, 2009. The Company is evaluating the impact that the adoption of SFAS No. 165 will have on its consolidated financial statements.

In May 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 162, “The Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles” (“SFAS 162”).  SFAS No. 162 is intended to improve financial reporting by identifying a consistent framework, or hierarchy, for selecting accounting principles to be used in preparing financial statements that are presented in conformity with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”) for nongovernmental entities.  Prior to the issuance of SFAS 162, GAAP hierarchy was defined in the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (“AICPA”) Statement on Auditing Standards No. 69, “The Meaning of Present Fairly in Conformity with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles” (“SAS 69”).  SAS 69 has been criticized because it is directed to the auditor rather than the entity.  SFAS 162 addresses these issues by establishing that the GAAP hierarchy should be directed to entities because it is the entity, not its auditor, that is responsible for selecting
 
53

 
 

 

accounting principles for financial statements that are presented in conformity with GAAP.  SFAS 162 is effective 60 days following the SEC’s approval of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board Auditing amendments to AU Section 411, “The Meaning of Present Fairly in Conformity with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles”.  The Company does not expect SFAS 162 to have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements.

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, “Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements – an amendment of Accounting Research Bulletin No. 51” (“SFAS 160”).  SFAS 160 establishes accounting and reporting standards for ownership interests in subsidiaries held by parties other than the parent, the amount of consolidated net income attributable and to the noncontrolling interest, changes in a parent’s ownership interest, and the valuation of retained noncontrolling equity investments when a subsidiary is deconsolidated.  SFAS 160 also establishes disclosure requirements that clearly identify and distinguish between the interests of the parent and the interests of the noncontrolling owners.  SFAS 160 is effective for fiscal years beginning after 15 December 2008.  The adoption of SFAS 160 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141 (revised 2007), “Business Combinations” (“SFAS No. 141(R)”). SFAS No. 141(R) establishes principles and requirements for how an acquirer recognizes and measures in its financial statements the identifiable assets acquired, the liabilities assumed, any noncontrolling interest in the acquiree and the goodwill acquired. SFAS No. 141(R) also establishes disclosure requirements to enable the evaluation of the nature and financial effects of the business combination. SFAS No. 141(R) is effective for fiscal years beginning after 15 December 2008.  The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact, if any, of the adoption of SFAS No. 141(R) on its consolidated results of operation and financial condition.

In June 2008, FASB ratified EITF No. 07-05, Determining Whether an Instrument (or an Embedded Feature) Is Indexed to an Entity’s Own Stock (“EITF 07-05”). EITF 07-05 provides that an entity should use a two-step approach to evaluate whether an equity-linked financial instrument (or embedded feature) is indexed to its own stock, including evaluating the instrument’s contingent exercise and settlement provisions. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact, if any, of the adoption of EITF No. 07-05 on its consolidated results of operation and financial condition.

In May 2008, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position APB No. 14-1, “Accounting for Convertible Debt Instruments That May Be Settled in Cash upon Conversion (Including Partial Cash Settlement)” (“APB 14-1”), which applies to convertible debt that includes a cash conversion feature. Under APB 14-1, the liability and equity components of convertible debt instruments within the scope of this pronouncement shall be separately accounted for in a manner that will reflect the entity’s nonconvertible debt borrowing rate when interest cost is recognized in subsequent periods. APB 14-1 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008. We examined our convertible debt instruments and preferred stock for applicability under this FSP. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact, if any, of the adoption of FASB Staff Position No. 14-1 on its consolidated results of operation and financial condition.

In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS 157, Fair Value Measurements (SFAS 157), which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands
 
54

 
 

 

disclosures about fair value measurements. This pronouncement applies to other standards that require or permit fair value measurements. Accordingly, this statement does not require any new fair value measurement. The provisions of SFAS 157 are effective for the Company on January 1, 2008. We have partially adopted FAS 157 as of January 1, 2008 except for those non-recurring measurements for non-financial assets and non-financial liabilities subject to the partial deferral in FASB Statement of Position No. 157-2,  Partial Deferral of the Effective Date of Statement 157,”  (“FSP 157-2”).  The adoption of FAS 157 did not have an impact on our consolidated financial position or operating results.   FSP 157-2 delays the effective date of FAS 157 from fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007 to fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008 for all nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities, except those that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a recurring basis (at least annually).  

Recent accounting pronouncements adopted

In May 2008, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued SFAS No. 163, “Accounting for Financial Guarantee Insurance Contracts – an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 60” (“SFAS 163”).  SFAS No. 163 provides enhanced guidance on the recognition and measurement to be used to account for premium revenue and claim liabilities and related disclosures and is limited to financial guarantee insurance (and reinsurance) contracts, issued by enterprises included within the scope of FASB Statement No. 60, Accounting and Reporting by Insurance Enterprises.  SFAS 163 also requires that an insurance enterprise recognize a claim liability prior to an event of default when there is evidence that credit deterioration has occurred in an insured financial obligation.  SFAS 163 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after 15 December 2008, with early application not permitted.  The Company adopted SFAS 163 on February 1, 2009 and has determined that SFAS 163 did not have an impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In March 2008, the FASB issued SFAS 161, “Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, an amendment of FASB Statement No. 133”, which amends and expands the disclosure requirements of SFAS 133 to provide an enhanced understanding of an entity’s use of derivative instruments, how they are accounted for under SFAS 133 and their effect on the entity’s financial position, financial performance and cash flows.  The provisions of SFAS 161 are effective for periods beginning after 15 November 2008.  The Company adopted SFAS 163 on February 1, 2009 has determined that SFAS 161 did not have an impact on its consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 2.                                   GOING CONCERN

The Company has a net loss of $994,466 during the year ended April 30, 2009 and has working capital deficit of $754,665 and an accumulated deficit of $11,423,153 at April 30, 2009. These factors raise substantial doubt about the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern.  The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. As a result, the Company’s consolidated financial statements as of April 30, 2009 and for the year ended have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the settlement of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business.

The Company plans to raise funds through loans from Rand Energy Group Inc. (“Rand”), a private company with officers and directors in common with the Company.  Further, Rand
 
 
55

 
 

 

owns approximately 9% of the shares of the Company, and may sell shares as needed to meet ongoing funding requirements if traditional equity sources of financing prove to be insufficient. The Company also receives interim support from affiliated companies and plans to raise additional capital through debt and/or equity financings. The Company has an equity line of credit whereby the investor agreed to purchase up to $10,000,000 of the Company’s common stock. There continues to be insufficient funds to provide enough working capital to fund ongoing operations for the next twelve months. The Company may also raise additional funds through the exercise of warrants and stock options, if exercised. There is no assurance that any of these activities will be successful.

The fair value of each option and warrant granted was determined using the Black-Scholes option pricing model and the following assumptions:

   
April 30,
 
   
2009
   
2008
 
             
Risk free interest rate
    1.26% - 2.12%       3.49%  
Expected life

2.5 years
 
Annualized volatility
    88% - 113%       110%  
Expected dividends
    -       -  

Option pricing models require the input of highly subjective assumptions including the expected price volatility.  The subjective input assumptions can materially affect the fair value estimate.
 
On May 10, 2007, the Company extended the term on 75,000 options for an additional two years.  The incremental fair value of the modification of the stock options was estimated to be $0.05 per share.  The fair value of the extended options was estimated at the date of grant or modification using the Black-Scholes option pricing model using the following weighted average assumptions: risk free interest rate of 4.53%, expected volatility of 118%, an expected option life of 2.1 years and no expected dividends.

On November 7, 2007, the Company granted 25,000 stock options from the 2007 Stock Option Plan to an employee exercisable at $1.30 per share, up to November 7, 2012. The fair value of options was estimated at the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model using the following weighted average assumptions: risk free interest rate of 3.49%, expected volatility of 110%, an expected option life of 2.5 years and no expected dividends.
 
On October 1, 2008, the Company granted 100,000 common stock warrants from the 2000 Stock Option Plan to a consultant exercisable at $0.60 per share, up to October 1, 2011.  The fair value of warrants was estimated at the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model using the following weighted average assumptions: risk free interest rate of 2.12%, expected volatility of 110%, an expected option life of 3 years and no expected dividends.

On January 13, 2009, the Company granted 100,000 common stock warrants from the 2000 Stock Option Plan to a consultant exercisable at $0.50 per share, up to January 13, 2013.  The fair value of warrants was estimated at the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model using the following weighted average assumptions: risk free interest rate of 1.26%, expected volatility of 88%, an expected option life of 4 years and no expected dividends.

On April 27, 2007, the Company further amended the Plan so that the term of the Plan is extended to the twentieth anniversary of the effective date.

c)      Non-Cash Consideration

Shares issued for non-cash consideration to third parties were valued based on the fair market value of the services provided.

During the year ended April 30, 2007, the Company entered into a Financial Advisory Agreement valued at $120,000 for services to be rendered over a one-year period. Part of this agreement stated that $60,000 was to be paid by issuance of the Company’s shares of common stock. At the date of this obligation, 29,000 shares were issued when the value of the Company’s stock was $2.07 per share. During the fiscal year ended April 30, 2008, the Company charged $12,500 to operations for the pro-rata portion of stock-based compensation related to the services performed.

During the year ended April 30, 2009, a consultant exercised 36,000 common stock warrants with a fair value of $46,800 for services rendered; 50% was charged to research and development and the other 50% charged to a related party as per the agreement.

During the year ended April 30, 2009, a consultant exercised 35,000 common stock warrants with a fair value of $21,000 for services rendered and was charged to research and development.

d)   Equity Line of Credit

On November 17, 2006, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (“equity line of credit”), whereby an investor agreed to purchase up to $10,000,000 of the Company’s common stock over a term of 36 months at the Company’s discretion. Each purchase will be for a minimum of $150,000 and up to a maximum of the lesser of $750,000, or 200% of the average weighted volume for the Company’s common stock for the 20 trading days prior to the date of purchase. Each purchase will be at a 15% discount to the market price of the Company’s common stock over the 10 trading days prior to the purchase.

In connection with the equity line of credit, the Company issued to the investor a warrant (“Investor warrant”) to purchase 1,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at $1.30 per share (the “Exercise Price”) for five years, and to an agent a warrant (”Placement warrant”) to purchase 640,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at $1.30 per share for five years. If the Company fails to register the shares issuable upon the exercise of the Investor or Placement warrant, the holder is entitled to exercise the warrant and receive, for no consideration, a certificate equal to the number of shares obtained by subtracting the Exercise Price of the warrant for the volume weighted average price on the trading day immediately preceding the date of such election and multiplying that amount by the number of shares issuable upon the exercise of the warrant.
 
60

 
 

 

The Company filed an SB-2 Registration Statement with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission that was declared effective February 9, 2007, to register shares of common stock potentially issuable under this equity line of credit (6,160,000 shares) and the related warrants (1,640,000 shares).

Pursuant to the agreement, if the Company issues any common stock, or rights to acquire common stock at a price less than the Exercise Price, the Exercise Price will be adjusted to the lower price. In addition, the number of shares issuable will be increased such that the aggregate exercise price after adjustment is equal to the aggregate exercise price prior to adjustment.

Subsequent to the issuance of the warrants, the Company completed an equity financing at $1 per share. The issuance of the Company’s common shares lowered the Exercise Price of the Investor warrants to $1 and increased the number of shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants to 2,132,000 shares, of which 73,000 have been exercised.

The Company has determined that, in accordance with SFAS 133, “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Fair Value Hedges”, the warrants are not derivative instruments and, accordingly, guidance in EITF 00- 19, “Accounting for Derivative Financial Instruments Indexed to, and Potentially Settled in, a Company's Own Stock”, relating to net cash settlement versus net share settlement should be followed. The contract permits the Company to settle in unregistered shares, the Company has a sufficient number of unissued authorized shares available to settle the contract, and there is an explicit limit on the number of shares to be delivered in a share settlement. As the issuance of shares and, thus, the modification of the exercise price is wholly under the control of the Company and the Company has the ability to control net-settlement, these warrants have been classified as equity.

NOTE 6.                                   INCOME TAXES

We account for income taxes in accordance with Statement of Financial Standards No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes,” which uses the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes. Deferred income taxes are recognized for the tax consequences of “temporary differences” by applying enacted statutory tax rate applicable to future years to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts and the tax basis of existing assets and liabilities and result primarily form differences in methods used to amortize intangible assets. A valuation allowance is provided when management cannot determine whether it is more likely than not that the deferred tax asset will be realized. The effect on deferred income taxes of the change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.  
 
The Company has losses carried forward for income tax purposes to April 30, 2009, however, the related deferred tax asset has been fully reserved due to management’s determination that the realization of the deferred tax assets is less than likely. The difference between the statutory tax rate and the effective tax rate is the valuation allowance.
