NUCLEAR SOLUTIONS, INC.
AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
SEPTEMBER 30, 2008
(Unaudited)
 
NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND NATURE OF OPERATIONS
 
Nuclear Solutions, Inc. ("the "Company") was organized February 27, 1997 under the laws of the State of Nevada, as Stock Watch Man, Inc. On September 12, 2001, the Company amended its articles of incorporation to change its name to Nuclear Solutions, Inc.
 
On September 2, 2005 the Company formed a wholly owned subsidiary, Fuel Frontiers Inc.(“FFI”), formally, Future Fuels, Inc., which has had minimal operations through June 30, 2008.
 
On July 31, 2006 the company formed a wholly owned subsidiary, Liquidyne Fuels, which has had no activity through September 30, 2008.
 
The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in the consolidated financial statement.
 
Business:

Nuclear Solutions, Inc. is engaged in the research, development, and commercialization of innovative product technologies, which are generally early-stage, theoretical or commercially unproven. We operate a highly technical business and our primary mission is to develop advanced product technologies to address emerging market opportunities in the fields of homeland security, nanotechnology, and nuclear remediation.
 
Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Regulation S-X promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission and do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles in the United States for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, these interim financial statements include all adjustments, which include only normal recurring adjustments, necessary in order to make the financial statements not misleading. The results of operations for such interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results of operations for a full year. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto of the Company and management's discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations included in the Company's Annual Report for the year ended December 31, 2007 as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on Form 10-K.

Business Concentration
 
For each of the nine months ended September 30, 2007 we earned all of our revenue from a single customer.

NOTE 2 - ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND PROCEDURES
 
Revenue Recognition

Revenues are recognized in the period that services are provided. For revenue from product sales, the Company recognizes revenue in accordance with Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 104, “Revenue Recognition” ("SAB104"), which superceded Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 101, “Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements” ("SAB101"). SAB 101 requires that four basic criteria must be met before revenue can be recognized: (1) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; (2) delivery has occurred; (3) the selling price is fixed and determinable; and (4) collectibility is reasonably assured. Determination of criteria (3) and (4) are based on management's judgments regarding the fixed nature of the selling prices of the products delivered and the collectibility of those amounts. Provisions for discounts and rebates to customers, estimated returns and allowances, and other adjustments are provided for in the same period the related sales are recorded. The Company defers any revenue for which the product has not been delivered or is subject to refund until such time that the Company and the customer jointly determine that the product has been delivered or no refund will be required. Payments received in advance are deferred.
 
SAB 104 incorporates Emerging Issues Task Force 00-21 ("EITF 00-21"), “Multiple-Deliverable Revenue Arrangements”. EITF 00-21 addresses accounting for arrangements that may involve the delivery or performance of multiple products, services and/or rights to use assets. The effect of implementing EITF 00-21 on the Company's consolidated financial position and results of operations was not significant.
 
Licensing fee income generally is being recognized ratably over the term of the license. The Company's management has determined that the collectibility and length of time to collect the remaining contracted price due from its licensee can not be reasonably assured. Accordingly, revenues will be recognized as collected.
 
Collaborative Arrangement
 
The Company, through its subsidiary FFI, has entered into a collaborative arrangement with Kentucky Fuel Associates, Inc. (“KFA”) for the development of coal-based gas-to-liquid (CTL) fuel production facilities in the State of Kentucky. KFA has agreed to provide an initial funding of $2,000,000 per site to be applied by FFI towards any and all costs and expenses incurred in the ordinary course of business for the development, construction and arranging of financing to closure including without limitation the following costs: engineering, procurement, administrative, development management, financing, legal, operations and maintenance costs for each said fuel production facility. In consideration for KFA’s initial minimum funding contribution, KFA will receive 7% of the annual net pre-tax income of each jointly developed CTL diesel fuel facility and 2.5% equity interest in the first CTL diesel fuel facility developed by FFI and KFA. Additionally, KFA will have the exclusive right to develop CTL diesel fuel facilities with FFI in the state of Kentucky and a conditional first right of refusal to develop CTL diesel fuel facilities in the remainder of the United States.

We are accounting for this agreement pursuant to EITF 07-01, “Accounting for Collaborative Arrangements”. We have expended $436,791 towards the development of the initial CTL facility and KFA has provided $625,000 in funding. We have reported $436,791 of the payment as payments received pursuant to collaborative agreements and the balance of $188,209 as a current liability as advance payments received.

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

Loss Per Share
 
Basic and diluted loss per common share for all periods presented is computed based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the year as defined by SFAS No. 128, "Earnings Per Share". The assumed exercise of common stock equivalents was not utilized since the effect would be anti-dilutive. At September 30, 2008 and 2007, the Company had 1,054,940 and 10,304,499 potentially dilutive securities, respectively.
 
Stock Based Compensation
 
The Company uses the fair value method for equity instruments granted to non-employees and uses the Black Scholes model for measuring the fair value. The stock based fair value compensation is determined as of the date of the grant or the date at which the performance of the services is completed (measurement date) and is recognized over the periods in which the related services are rendered. 

Fair Value Accounting
 
In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued FASB Statement No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements” (“FAS 157”). FAS 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. The provisions of FAS 157 were adopted January 1, 2008. In February 2008, the FASB staff issued Staff Position No. 157-2 “Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 157” (“FSP FAS 157-2”). FSP FAS 157-2 delayed the effective date of FAS 157 for nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities, except for items that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a recurring basis (at least annually). The provisions of FSP FAS 157-2 are effective for the Company’s fiscal year beginning January 1, 2009. 

FAS 157 establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy under FAS 157 are described below:
 
Level 1
Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities;
 
Level 2
Quoted prices in markets that are not active, or inputs that are observable, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability;
 
Level 3
Prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable (supported by little or no market activity).
 
The following table sets forth the Company’s financial liabilities measured at fair value by level within the fair value hierarchy. As required by FAS 157, assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The Company designates cash equivalents as Level 1. As of September 30, 2008, and December 31, 2007, the Company did not have any cash equivalents, therefore there were no assets measured at fair value.

The Company’s conversion option liability is valued using pricing models and the Company generally uses similar models to value similar instruments. Where possible, the Company verifies the values produced by its pricing models to market prices. Valuation models require a variety of inputs, including contractual terms, market prices, yield curves, credit spreads, measures of volatility, and correlations of such inputs. These financial liabilities do not trade in liquid markets, and as such, model inputs cannot generally be verified and do involve significant management judgment. Such instruments are typically classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.

In February 2007, the FASB issued FASB Statement No. 159, “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities” (“FAS 159”). FAS 159 permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value, with the objective of improving financial reporting by mitigating volatility in reported earnings caused by measuring related assets and liabilities differently without having to apply complex hedge accounting provisions. The provisions of FAS 159 were adopted January 1, 2008. The Company did not elect the Fair Value Option for any of its financial assets or liabilities, and therefore, the adoption of FAS 159 had no impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
 
New Accounting Pronouncements
 
In March 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 161, “Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities,” which changes the disclosure requirements for derivative instruments and hedging activities. SFAS No. 161 requires enhanced disclosures about (a) how and why an entity uses derivative instruments, (b) how derivative instruments and related hedged items are accounted for under SFAS No. 133, “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities” and its related interpretations, and (c) how derivative instruments and related hedged items affect an entity’s financial position, financial performance, and cash flows. This statement’s disclosure requirements are effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after November 15, 2008. The Company is currently evaluating the future impacts and disclosures of this standard.

In May 2008, the FASB issued FAS No. 162 “The Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles” (“FAS 162”). FAS 162 identifies the sources of accounting generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. FAS 162 is effective sixty days following the SEC’s approval of PCAOB amendments to AU Section 411, “The Meaning of ‘Present fairly in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles’“. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact, if any, of the adoption of FAS 162 on its consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 3 - GOING CONCERN
 
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements 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. As reflected in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, the Company has a net loss of $3,349,583 for the nine months ended September 30, 2008, and a working capital deficiency of $5,256,219 and a stockholders' deficiency of $5,192,890 at September 30, 2008. These factors raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on the Company's ability to raise additional funds and implement its business plan. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

The Company is actively pursuing additional equity financing through discussions with investment bankers and private investors. There can be no assurance the Company will be successful in its effort to secure additional equity financing.
 
If operations and cash flows continue to improve through these efforts, management believes that the Company can continue to operate. However, no assurance can be given that management's actions will result in profitable operations or the resolution of its liquidity problems.

Business Overview
 
Nuclear Solutions, Inc. (NSOL) and its subsidiary Fuel Frontiers, Inc.(FFI) are engaged in highly technical businesses consisting of research, development, and commercialization of innovative product technologies and processes, which are generally early-stage, theoretical or commercially unproven.

The primary mission of Nuclear Solutions, Inc. is to develop advanced product technologies to address emerging market opportunities in the fields of homeland security and nanotechnology power applications, with particular emphasis in the detection of shielded nuclear materials.

The primary mission of Fuel Frontiers, Inc. is to plan, design, finance, construct and operate gas-to-liquid synthetic fuel production facilities intended to transform domestic coal into ultra-clean diesel. FFI is currently concentrating its efforts on coal-to-diesel projects in the state of Kentucky.

In July 2008, The Board of Directors elected to focus the resources of the combined companies on the production of synthetic fuels through the subsidiary Fuel Frontiers Inc. The primary goal of Management at this time is to focus nuclear solutions resources towards the development of FFI as an independent operating entity.

While the establishment of fuel frontiers Inc. as an independent entity is a priority for management, nuclear solutions Inc. is still maintaining its intellectual property assets and seeking buyers or licensors for the patented and patent pending technology related to the detection of shielded nuclear materials.

Production of Ultra-Clean Synthetic Fuels through our subsidiary Fuel Frontiers, Inc.

The primary business of Fuel Frontiers, Inc. (FFI) is to plan, design, finance, construct, and operate multiple gas-to-liquid synthetic fuel synthesis facilities to transform virtually cost-free waste materials such as used tires, waste coal, solid and liquid municipal wastes, biomass, and other similar low-value societal refuse into high-value gas-to-liquid fuels such as ultra-clean diesel.

Fuel Frontiers, Inc. (FFI) is focused on the production of ultra-clean GTL Diesel fuel. Management made a decision to concentrate on the market for ultra-clean GTL Diesel fuel due to the maturity and stability of the diesel market place and the greater certainties associated with distribution, integration, production costs and profit margins.

Originally, our approach to the production of ultraclean synthetic fuel was highly focused on the utilization of virtually cost free waste materials as feedstock for our process. We believe our approach to the production of ultra-clean synthetic fuels is differentiated by our business model and technical approach. Our business model focuses on the flexibility to use virtually cost free waste materials some of which are renewable in combination with conventional feed stocks such as natural gas or petroleum coke, as opposed to other approaches which must lock in a certain type of homogeneous feedstock such as natural gas or coal by themselves. Our technical approach involves the use of a low-emission plasma processing system to convert the waste materials into synthesis gas which is then converted into a liquid fuel.

Currently, we are focusing our efforts in the state of Kentucky, Muhlenberg County for our first coal to ultraclean diesel production facility. Over the next twelve months, we anticipate raising additional capital through debt, grants or equity financing to fund our development efforts in the state of Kentucky.

We intend to build our facilities with modular expansion capability to allow for increased future production and/or gasification of additional or diverse feedstock (waste materials). As of the date of this report, we are working with Westinghouse Plasma Corporation and Shaw Group, Energy & Chemicals for design engineering, procurement, construction, and production operations for our renewable fuel projects currently in the planning stages. As a matter of policy and our business model, we intend to outsource engineering, procurement, construction as well as daily facility management and operations of any future facilities to qualified and experienced providers.

System Overview

The FFI approach for the production of ultra-clean diesel occurs in two stages. In the first stage the feedstock material is fed into a plasma processing system such as the Westinghouse Plasma Gasifier (WPG) which transforms the feedstock material into synthesis gas, which is composed of carbon, hydrogen and oxygen. The heart of Westinghouse’s Plasma Gasifier contains a plasma field that reaches temperatures up to 30,000 degrees Centigrade. The plasma breaks down feedstock materials--such as waste coal, used tires, wood wastes, raw sewage, municipal solid wastes, biomass, low-grade waste-coal, and other agricultural by-products--to their core elements in a clean and efficient manner which generates significant amounts of synthesis gas. Excess heat energy is removed from the resulting synthesis gas and recovered to generate electricity on-site which can be used to provide power to the system. The cooled synthesis gas is then refined for purity and passed to the second stage. In the second stage, the refined synthesis gas, which is composed primarily of carbon, hydrogen and oxygen, is converted into ultra-clean diesel though a modified Fischer-Tropsch gas-to-liquids synthesis process for diesel fuels. The process applies a metallic catalyst to chemically transform the synthesis gas into a liquid fuel which is then refined to fuel-grade standards. This approach is not entirely new; as early as 1936 in Germany similar technology was used with coal-produced synthesis gas to produce diesel and alcohols on a commercial scale. The FFI approach to ultra-clean synthetic fuel production differs from other approaches mainly because our system can utilize multiple feedstock materials that are normally difficult to utilize in a conventional gasifier. The ability to use waste materials is a benefit of a plasma processing system. The Westinghouse Plasma Gasifier has the proven capability to transform a wide variety of waste materials into the synthesis gas in an efficient and environmentally friendly manner.

In July 2008, the company was informed by Kentucky officials associated with Muhlenberg County that the county allocated $625,000 from its coal severance fund towards engineering and development for our proposed Coal-to-Ultra-Clean Diesel production facility in Muhlenberg County, Kentucky.

Over the next twelve months, we anticipate that FFI's development efforts will continue to focus on engineering plant designs as well as project development and financing. These elements will play critical roles in the establishment of FFI's waste-to-fuel projects. While we believe that the appropriate technologies for waste-to-synthetic fuels such as ultra-clean diesel are commercially available, there is, however, no guarantee that commercially available technologies will be appropriate in every instance for the production of fuels and any of FFI's proposed facilities. Moreover, there could be unexpected problems or delays in the funding, construction and operation of the facility. There is no guarantee that FFI will be successful in raising the capital required for this project through the underwriting of the bond authorization for which it has been approved. Over the next twelve months we anticipate that FFI will require a minimum of approximately $500,000 to sustain operations. We anticipate raising this money through debt and/or equity financing which may or may not result in substantial dilution, and/or increase the company's indebtedness.
 
Results of Operations
 
REVENUES: The Company reported revenues of $100,000 from our existing technology license agreement, for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 as compared with revenues from continuing operations of $0 for the nine months ended September 30, 2008. The decrease in revenues is attributable to our policy of recognizing revenues on a cash basis. During the third quarter of 2008, we received and recognized $0 in revenue in the three months ended September 30, 2008.

TOTAL COSTS AND EXPENSES: Total costs and expenses from continuing operations increased from $2,845,749 for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 to $2,905,380 for the nine months ended September 30, 2008. The principal reason for this increase was due to an increase in consulting fees, and an increase in executive compensation.

OPERATING EXPENSES: Operating expenses from continuing operations increased from $2,845,749 for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 to $2,905,380 for the nine months ended September 30, 2008. This increase was primarily due to an increase in consulting fees and an increase in executive compensation as stated above. Depreciation expense decreased for the first nine months of 2008 versus the first nine months of 2007, decreasing from $4,949 for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 to $2,753, for the nine months ended September 30, 2008. This slight decrease reflects no significant increase or decrease in depreciable assets for the respective periods.

INTEREST EXPENSE: Interest expense decreased from $497,425 for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 to $454,617 for the nine months ended September 30, 2008. This decrease is due primarily to payment of debt.

GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE: General & Administrative expenses increased by $166,394 during the nine months ended September 30, 2008 to a total amount of $282,573 as compared to $116,179 for the nine months ended September 30, 2007. The increase was due to increased travel and general business expenses.

NET LOSS: The Company incurred a net loss of ($3,349,583) for the nine months ended September 30, 2008, compared with a net loss of ($3,325,043) for the nine months ended September 30, 2007, which reflects a year-to-year increase in the amount of loss for the period of $24,540. The principal reason for this increase was due to incurring more operating expenses as a result of increased business development activities.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES:
 
As of September 30, 2008, we had a working capital deficit of $5,256,219 which compares to a working capital deficit of $ 4,363,822 as of September 30, 2007. As a result of our operating losses for the nine month period ended September 30, 2008, we generated a cash flow deficit of $139,829 from operating activities. Cash flows used in investing activities was $0 during the period. Cash flows provided by financing activities were $268,000 on proceeds from short-term notes payable.

Additional financing will be required in order to meet our current and projected cash flow deficits from operations and development. We are seeking financing in the form of equity capital in order to provide the necessary working capital. There is no guarantee that we will be successful in raising the funds required. We intend to use the proceeds derived from revenues or financing to pay salaries, and general and administrative expenses to maintain the core operations of the company.

If we are not successful in generating sufficient liquidity from operations or in raising sufficient capital resources, on terms acceptable to us, this could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations liquidity and financial condition.

New Accounting Pronouncements
 
In March 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 161, “Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities,” which changes the disclosure requirements for derivative instruments and hedging activities. SFAS No. 161 requires enhanced disclosures about (a) how and why an entity uses derivative instruments, (b) how derivative instruments and related hedged items are accounted for under SFAS No. 133, “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities” and its related interpretations, and (c) how derivative instruments and related hedged items affect an entity’s financial position, financial performance, and cash flows. This statement’s disclosure requirements are effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after November 15, 2008. The Company is currently evaluating the future impacts and disclosures of this standard.

In May 2008, the FASB issued FAS No. 162 “The Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles” (“FAS 162”). FAS 162 identifies the sources of accounting generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. FAS 162 is effective sixty days following the SEC’s approval of PCAOB amendments to AU Section 411, “The Meaning of ‘Present fairly in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles’“. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact, if any, of the adoption of FAS 162 on its consolidated financial statements.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Cash and Cash Equivalents

We have historically invested our cash and cash equivalents in short-term, fixed rate, highly rated and highly liquid instruments which are reinvested when they mature throughout the year. Although our existing investments are not considered at risk with respect to changes in interest rates or markets for these instruments, our rate of return on short-term investments could be affected at the time of reinvestment as a result of intervening events. As of June 30, 2008, we had cash and cash equivalents aggregated $321,152.

The Company does not issue or invest in financial instruments or their derivatives for trading or speculative purposes.  The operations of the Company are conducted primarily in the United States, and, are not subject to material foreign currency exchange risk. Although the Company has outstanding debt and related interest expense, market risk of interest rate exposure in the United States is currently not material.

Debt

The interest rate on our outstanding debt obligations are fixed and are not subject to market fluctuations. Some of our convertible debt may have its interest costs increased if the debt is converted into common stock because the conversion price is a function of the market price of our common stock.
 
Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
 
Evaluation of and Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

The Company carried out, under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and the Company’s Chief Financial Officer, an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended).  Based on their evaluation, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and its Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of September 30, 2008, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were not effective because of the material weakness identified as of such date discussed below.  Notwithstanding, the existence of the material weakness described below, management has concluded that the financial statements in this Form 10-Q fairly present, in all material respects, the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods and dates presented.

Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting of the Company. Management, with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of September 30, 2008 based on the criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on that evaluation, they concluded that, during the period covered by this report, such internal controls and procedures were not effective to detect the inappropriate application of US GAAP rules as more fully described below. This was due to deficiencies that existed in the design or operation of our internal control over financial reporting that adversely affected our internal controls and that may be considered to be material weaknesses.

The matters involving internal controls and procedures that the Company’s management considered to be material weaknesses under the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board were:

As defined by Auditing Standard No. 5, "An Audit of Internal Control Over Financial Reporting that is Integrated with an Audit of Financial Statements and Related Independence Rule and Conforming Amendments," established by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board ("PCAOB"), a material weakness is a deficiency or combination of deficiencies that results more than a remote likelihood that a material misstatement of annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected. In connection with the assessment described above, management identified the following control deficiencies that represent material weaknesses as of April 30, 2008:
 
16


(1) Lack of an independent audit committee. We do not have an independent audit committee. We have never named an audit committee financial expert. It is our intension to establish an audit committee of the board and obtain a financial expert on our audit committee when we have sufficient capital resources and working capital to attract qualified independent directors and to maintain such a committee.

(2) Inadequate staffing and supervision within our bookkeeping operations. The relatively small number of employees who are responsible for bookkeeping functions prevents us from segregating duties within our internal control system. The inadequate segregation of duties is a weakness because it could lead to the untimely identification and resolution of accounting and disclosure matters or could lead to a failure to perform timely and effective reviews. During the quarter ending September 30, 2008, we had only three persons, two of which were executive officers, that performed nearly all aspects of our financial reporting process, including, but not limited to, access to the underlying accounting records and systems, the ability to post and record journal entries and responsibility for the preparation of the financial statements. This provides for a lack of review over the financial reporting process that may result in a failure to detect errors in spreadsheets, calculations, or assumptions used to compile the financial statements and related disclosures as filed with the SEC.

(3) Insufficient number of independent directors. At the present time, our Board of Directors does not consist of a majority of independent directors, a factor that is counter to corporate governance practices as set forth by the rules of various stock exchanges.
 
Our management determined that these deficiencies described above constituted material weaknesses. Due to a lack of financial and personnel resources, we are not able to, and do not intend to, immediately take any action to remediate these material weaknesses. We will not be able to do so until, if ever, we acquire sufficient financing and staff to do so. We will implement further controls as circumstances, cash flow, and working capital permit. Notwithstanding the assessment that our ICFR was not effective and that there were material weaknesses as identified in this report, we believe that our consolidated financial statements contained in our Quarterly Report on form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ending September 30, 2008, fairly present our financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the years covered thereby in all material respects.
 
This 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.
 
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There was no change in our internal controls over financial reporting identified in connection with the requisite evaluation that occurred during our last fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Our management, including our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, does not expect that our disclosure controls or internal controls over financial reporting will prevent all errors or all instances of fraud. A control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the control system's objectives will be met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within our company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Controls can also be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the controls. The design of any system of controls is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and any design may not succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or deterioration in the degree of compliance with policies or procedures. Because of the inherent limitation of a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.
