Corporate information

Business Development Solutions, Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated under the laws of the State of Colorado on January 28, 1987. On November 28, 2002, the Company effected its re-incorporation as a Delaware corporation by merging with the then wholly-owned subsidiary.

Before the share exchange transaction as detailed below, the Company engaged in no business operations other than the acquisition of capital for general and administrative expenses.

On March 30, 2009, the Company entered into and closed a share exchange agreement (the “Share Exchange Agreement”) with TripMart Holding Limited (“TripMart”), a British Virgin Islands company, and its shareholders, including the Company’s chairman and chief executive officer, Mr. Shu Keung Chui, pursuant to which the Company acquired 100% of the issued and outstanding capital stock of TripMart in exchange for 14,200,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.00001 per share, which constituted 88.14% of the Company’s issued and outstanding capital stock on a fully-diluted basis as of and immediately after the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Share Exchange Agreement.

The acquisition of TripMart was accounted for as a recapitalization effected by a share exchange, wherein TripMart is considered the acquirer for accounting and financial reporting purposes (the “RTO”). These financial statements, issued under the name of the Company, represent the continuation of the financial statements of TripMart.

As a result of the RTO, the Company now owns all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of TripMart, which in turn owns 100% of the outstanding capital stock of TripMart Corporation Limited (“TripMart HK”), a company incorporated in the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region, which in turn owns 100% of the equity interest in Suzhou EZTripMart Business Services Co., Ltd. (“Suzhou TripMart”), a wholly foreign-owned enterprise established in the People’s Republic of China (the “PRC”). The Company becomes a provider of B2B e-commerce travel services and technology in China, specializing in developing products and services, marketing strategies and business solutions for small and medium sized travel agents.

Current PRC laws and regulations impose substantial restrictions on foreign ownership of the air-ticketing, travel agency, advertising and value-added telecommunications businesses in the PRC. Therefore, the Company conducts part of its operations through a series of contractual arrangements between Suzhou TripMart and Shanghai EZTripMart Travel Agency Co., Ltd (“Shanghai TripMart”), the variable interest entity of the Company, or VIE, which holds the licenses and approvals for conducting the travel products and services and value-added telecommunications businesses in China. Shanghai TripMart was incorporated in Shanghai, China on February 12, 1999 as a travel agency offering comprehensive travel products and services. Details of the VIE arrangement are set forth in Note 2 to the condensed consolidated financial statements.

Summary of significant accounting policies

Basis of preparation

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”).

The interim results of operations are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2009. The Company’s consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2008 has been taken from the audited consolidated balance sheet of TripMart as of that date. All other financial statements contained herein are unaudited and, in the opinion of management, contain all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP 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.

Basis of consolidation

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of the Company, its subsidiaries and a VIE. All significant inter-company balances and transactions between the Company, its subsidiaries and VIE have been eliminated upon consolidation.

The Company adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Interpretation No. 46 “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities, an interpretation of ARB No. 51”, as amended (“FIN 46R”) and considers Suzhou TripMart be the primary beneficiary of Shanghai TripMart by virtue of several contractual agreements entered into among Suzhou TripMart, Shanghai TripMart and the sole shareholder of Shanghai TripMart, Shanghai Junli Air Services Co., Ltd. (“Shanghai Junli”) on March 27, 2009. Accordingly, the financial statements of Shanghai TripMart were consolidated into the Company’s financial statements since March 27, 2009.

Variable interest entities

Suzhou TripMart entered into a Technical and Management Consulting Services Agreement, an Equity Pledge Agreement, an Intellectual Property Assignment and License Agreement and an Option Agreement with Shanghai TripMart and Shanghai Junli (collectively referred to herein as the "Commercial Agreements"), through which Suzhou TripMart conducts part of its businesses and has the exclusive right to acquire all the equity of Shanghai TripMart if and when permitted by PRC regulations.

Suzhou TripMart has also entered into a Proxy Agreement with Shanghai TripMart and Shanghai Junli. Through this control arrangement, the Company has Shanghai Junli’s proxy to vote on matters on which Shanghai Junli is entitled to vote, including election of directors.

Summary of significant accounting policies (continued)

Variable interest entities (continued)

The Company believes that the terms of these agreements are no less favorable than the terms that the Company could obtain from disinterested third parties and the Company’s conduct of business through the Commercial Agreements complies with existing PRC laws, rules and regulations.

The principal terms of these contractual arrangements are described below.

Technical and Management Consulting Services Agreement

Pursuant to a technical and management consulting services agreement dated March 27, 2009 (the “Services Agreement”) between Suzhou TripMart, Shanghai TripMart and Shanghai Junli, Shanghai TripMart has agreed to engage Suzhou TripMart as Shanghai TripMart’s exclusive provider of certain technical, management consulting and related services.

In consideration for the services, Shanghai TripMart agreed to pay Suzhou TripMart a service fee each calendar quarter, equal to 50% of Shanghai TripMart’s net profit (as defined in the Services Agreement) for the quarter; provided however, that no such service fee is payable until and unless the net profit is first applied to reduce any operating losses of Shanghai TripMart carried over from previous quarters.

Equity Pledge Agreement

Pursuant to an equity pledge agreement dated March 27, 2009 (the “Pledge Agreement”) between Suzhou TripMart, Shanghai TripMart and Shanghai Junli, Shanghai Junli pledged its equity interests in Shanghai TripMart as a guarantee for Shanghai TripMart’s payment to Suzhou TripMart of services fees due and payable under the Services Agreement, the fulfillment of Shanghai TripMart’s obligations under the IP Assignment and License Agreement and the Option Agreement described below.

Intellectual Property Assignment and License Agreement

Pursuant to an intellectual property assignment and license agreement dated March 27, 2009 (the “IP Assignment and License Agreement”) between Suzhou TripMart and Shanghai TripMart, Suzhou TripMart has assigned to Shanghai TripMart without a grant fee, certain trademarks and domain names relating to the operation of the Company’s websites, as required for Shanghai TripMart to maintain its license to operate as a value-added telecommunications service provider, and have granted Shanghai TripMart a license to use Suzhou TripMart’s intellectual property, including the proprietary software supporting the Company’s websites, in exchange for a monthly royalty of the greater of (i) 5% of revenue of Shanghai TripMart or (ii) RMB10,000. Under the IP Assignment and License Agreement, Shanghai TripMart granted back to Suzhou TripMart an exclusive (except as to Shanghai TripMart), royalty-free, transferrable, irrevocable, worldwide license to use the assigned marks in Suzhou TripMart’s business, with the right to sublicense, to the extent not contrary to applicable PRC laws, Shanghai TripMart’s ownership of the assigned marks during the term of the agreement.

Variable interest entities (continued)

Option Agreement

Pursuant to an option agreement dated March 27, 2009 (the “Option Agreement”) between Suzhou TripMart, Shanghai TripMart and Shanghai Junli, Shanghai Junli or Shanghai TripMart (as the case may be) granted Suzhou TripMart an exclusive, irrevocable option to purchase all or part of its equity interests in, or all or part of the assets of, Shanghai TripMart, or the Interests, to the extent permitted by the then-effective PRC laws and regulations. The option may be exercised by Suzhou TripMart and/or any other person Suzhou TripMart designates. The Company intends to exercise such option at such time that applicable PRC laws and regulations removes restrictions on foreign ownership of air-ticketing, travel agencies, and value-added telecommunications businesses in China. The Option Agreement will terminate after all the Interests have been effectively transferred to Suzhou TripMart, or by Suzhou TripMart’s election with or without cause upon 30 days’ prior written notice to the other parties.

Proxy Agreement

The Company’s control arrangement with Shanghai TripMart and Shanghai Junli is pursuant to a proxy agreement dated March 27, 2009 (the “Proxy Agreement”) between Suzhou TripMart, Shanghai TripMart and Shanghai Junli, Shanghai Junli has irrevocably appointed a PRC individual designated by the Company as Shanghai Junli’s proxy and attorney-in-fact, to vote on Shanghai Junli’s behalf on all matters it is entitled to vote on at every stockholders’ meeting, and to exercise Shanghai Junli’s shareholder rights. The proxy is also entitled to elect a majority of Shanghai TripMart’s directors. The term of the Proxy Agreement continues until terminated pursuant to the parties’ mutual agreement or the expiration of the term of commercial arrangement with Shanghai TripMart.

As a result of these contractual arrangements, which enable the Company to substantially control Shanghai TripMart, the Company has consolidated Shanghai TripMart’s historical financial results in these financial statements commencing from the effective dates of the Commercial Agreements as a variable interest entity pursuant to U.S. GAAP. The Company did not recognize any gain or loss on the initial consolidation of Shanghai TripMart. Creditors of Shanghai TripMart do not have recourse to the Company’s general credit.

The following is a summary of certain financial data of Shanghai TripMart :-

Noncontrolling interest in variable interest entity

Noncontrolling interest in variable interest entity in the consolidated balance sheet represents the total net asset value of the VIE, Shanghai TripMart, as of March 27, 2009.

Revenue recognition

The Company's revenues for the six-month period ended June 30, 2009 are derived from the travel agency businesses and include (i) revenue reported at the difference between the selling price and the cost of the hotel rooms and tour packages of US$10,256; and (ii) commission from booking air and train tickets of US$112,153; and (iii) transaction fee (net of third-party payment transaction charges) for air tickets sold on the Company’s online travel agency marketplace of US$27,341.

Rental expenses are recognized from the date of initial possession of the leased property on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. Lease renewal periods are considered on a lease-by-lease basis and are generally not included in the initial lease term.

Recently issued accounting pronouncements

In December 2007, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standard, or SFAS, No. 141 (Revised) “Business Combinations.” SFAS No. 141 (Revised) establishes principles and requirements for how the acquirer of a business recognizes and measures in its financial statements the identifiable assets acquired, the liabilities assumed, and any noncontrolling interest in the acquiree. The statement also provides guidance for recognizing and measuring the goodwill acquired in the business combination and determines what information to disclose to enable users of the financial statements to evaluate the nature and financial effects of the business combination. The guidance becomes effective for the fiscal year beginning after December 15, 2008. The adoption of this statement has no material effect on the Company’s financial statements.

Recently issued accounting pronouncements (continued)

In April 2009, the FASB issued an FASB Staff Position, or FSP, No. 141R-1 “Accounting for Assets Acquired and Liabilities Assumed in a Business Combination That Arise from Contingencies,” or FSP No. 141R-1. FSP 141R-1 amends the provisions in FASB Statement 141R for the initial recognition and measurement, subsequent measurement and accounting, and disclosures for assets and liabilities arising from contingencies in business combinations. FSP 141R-1 eliminates the distinction between contractual and non-contractual contingencies, including the initial recognition and measurement criteria in Statement 141R and instead carries forward most of the provisions in SFAS 141 for acquired contingencies. FSP 141R-1 is effective for contingent assets and contingent liabilities acquired in evaluating the impact of SFAS 141(R). The management is in the process of evaluating the impact of the adoption of this FSP on the Company’s financial statements.

In April 2009, the FASB issued three FSPs to provide additional application guidance and enhance disclosures regarding fair value measurements and impairments of securities. FSP FAS 157-4 “Determining Fair Value When the Volume and Level of Activity for the Asset or Liability Have Significantly Decreased and Identifying Transactions That Are Not Orderly” provides guidelines for making fair value measurements more consistent with the principles presented in SFAS 157. FSP FAS 107-1 and APB 28-1 “Interim Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments” enhances consistency in financial reporting by increasing the frequency of fair value disclosures. FSP FAS 115-2 and FAS 124-2 “Recognition and Presentation of Other-Than-Temporary Impairments” provides additional guidance designed to create greater clarity and consistency in accounting for and presenting impairment losses on securities. These three FSPs are effective for interim and annual periods ending after June 15, 2009, with early adoption permitted for periods ending after March 15, 2009. The adoption of these FSP has no material effect on the Company’s financial statements.

In May 2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 165 “Subsequent Events”. This Statement establishes general standards of accounting for and disclosures 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. This Statement is effective for interim and annual periods ending after June 15, 2009. The adoption of this statement has no material effect on the Company's financial statements.

In June 2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 166 “Accounting for Transfers of Financial Assets” or SFAS No. 166. SFAS No. 166 removes the concept of a qualifying special-purpose entity from SFAS 140 “Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishment of Liabilities” and removes the exception from applying FASB Interpretation No. 46 “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities” (revised December 2003), or FIN No. 46(R). This statement also clarifies the requirements for isolation and limitations on portions of financial assets that are eligible for sale accounting. This statement is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2009, for interim periods within that first annual reporting period, and for interim and annual reporting periods thereafter. Earlier application is prohibited. The management is in the process of evaluating the impact of adopting this standard on the Company’s financial statements.

In June 2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 167 “Amendments to FASB Interpretation No. 46(R),” or SFAS No. 167, which amends FIN No. 46(R) to address the elimination of the concept of a qualifying special purpose entity. SFAS No. 167 also replaces the quantitative-based risks and rewards calculation for determining which enterprise has a controlling financial interest in a variable interest entity with an approach focused on identifying which enterprise has the power to direct the activities of a variable interest entity and the obligation to absorb losses of the entity or the right to receive benefits from the entity. Additionally, SFAS No. 167 provides more timely and useful information about an enterprise’s involvement with a variable interest entity. SFAS No. 167 shall be effective as of the beginning of each reporting entity’s first annual reporting period that begins after November 15, 2009, for interim periods within that first annual reporting period, and for interim and annual reporting periods thereafter. Earlier application is prohibited. The management is in the process of evaluating the impact of adopting this standard on the Company’s financial statements.

Summary of significant accounting policies (continued)

Recently issued accounting pronouncements (continued)

In June 2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 168 “The FASB Accounting Standards Codification™ and the Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, a replacement of FASB Statement No. 162,” or SFAS No. 168, which establishes the FASB Accounting Standards Codification as the source of authoritative accounting principles recognized by the FASB to be applied in the preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. SFAS No. 168 explicitly recognizes rules and interpretive releases of the Securities and Exchange Commission under federal securities laws as authoritative GAAP for Securities and Exchange Commission registrants. SFAS No. 168 will become effective for financial statements issued for interim and annual periods ending after September 15, 2009. The management expects the adoption of this standard to have no material impact on the Company’s financial statements.

Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Information
For the Six Months Ended June 30, 2009
(Unaudited)

The following pro forma condensed combined financial information is presented to illustrate the estimated effects of the acquisition (the “Exchange Transaction”) of TripMart Holding Limited (“TripMart”) by Business Development Solutions, Inc. (the “Company”) on the Company’s results of operations and cash flows.

The pro forma condensed combined financial information also include the estimated effect of the series of agreements (collectively, the “Commercial Agreements”) entered into by a wholly-owned subsidiary of TripMart with Shanghai EZTripMart Travel Agency Co., Ltd. (“Shanghai TripMart”) and its sole shareholder, through which the subsidiary conducts part of its businesses and has the exclusive right to acquire all the equity of Shanghai TripMart if and when permitted by PRC regulations (the “VIE Arrangement”). As a result of the Commercial Agreements, Shanghai TripMart is considered as the variable interest entity of TripMart.

The pro forma condensed combined statements of operations and comprehensive loss and cash flows assume the Exchange Transaction and the VIE Arrangement were consummated on January 1, 2008.

We have derived our historical financial data for the six months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008 from our unaudited financial statements and quarterly report previously filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission respectively. We have derived the historical financial data of TripMart and Shanghai TripMart for each of the six months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008 from their respective unaudited financial statements.

The information presented in the pro forma combined statements does not purport to represent what the Company’s results of operations and cash flows would have been had the Exchange Transaction and the VIE Arrangement occurred as of the date indicated, nor is it indicative of our future results of operations and cash flows for any period. You should not rely on this information as being indicative of the forecast and historical results that would have been achieved had the companies always been combined or the future results that the combined companies will experience after the Exchange Transaction and the VIE Arrangement.

These pro forma condensed combined financial statements are unaudited and should be read in conjunction with the historical financial statements and related notes of the Company, TripMart and Shanghai TripMart.

Overview of Our Business

We are a holding company that operates through our indirect wholly owned subsidiary, Suzhou TripMart, a leading B2B e-commerce travel services company in China, specializing in developing products and services, marketing strategies and business solutions and for small and medium sized, or SME, travel agents. We also provide travel management services and products to corporate clients throughout China, as well as premium travel products and services to high-net-worth individuals with discerned travel needs.

Currently PRC law imposes substantial restrictions on foreign ownership of the air-ticketing, travel agency, and value-added telecommunications business in the PRC. Therefore, we conduct part of our operations through a series of contractual arrangements between Suzhou TripMart and Shanghai TripMart, our VIE that holds the licenses and approval for conducting travel products and services and value-added telecommunications business in China. For further information regarding the agreements and arrangements among us, Suzhou TripMart, Shanghai TripMart and Shanghai TripMart’s parent company, Shanghai Junli Air Service Co., Ltd., or Shanghai Junli, see our Current Report on Form 8-K filed on March 30, 2009.

We conduct our business primarily through our websites www.zuwin.cn and www.eztripmart.com. Our travel agency marketplace at www.zuwin.cn provides for a neutral medium for air-ticketing agencies across China to post their air ticket inventory and price information online and conduct ticketing on a real-time basis. Travel agencies can browse through real-time listings of available air ticket inventory across China, which enables them to obtain favorable prices for their customers which would not be otherwise available, and maximize their efficiency and profitability. Since the launch of the trial run of the domestic air ticket marketplace in October 2008, we have experienced significant growth in our user base. We officially rolled out our air ticket marketplace for both domestic and international ticketing in March 2009 and expect to become a dominant player in the B2B e-commerce platform for air ticket sales in China in terms of ticketing volume and revenue.

2


Through our user-friendly bilingual website www.eztripmart.com, we provide organizations in China corporate travel services travel planning, hotel reservations, air-ticketing, rental car bookings and conference services. We also assist companies in planning, executing and streamlining their travel budgets through web-based functionalities tailored to our corporate customers. We also design and sell premium travel services and products that suit the needs of a growing number of high-net-worth individuals who have discriminating travel needs and demand more personalized services. We offer our services to users and clients through an advanced transaction and service platform consisting of centralized toll-free, 24-hour customer service center and websites.

Recent Developments

We officially launched our international air ticket marketplace in March 2009, significantly expanding the functionality of our online B2B travel agency marketplace which enables users to browse both domestic and international real-time air ticket inventory and commission schedules based on multi-segment routing. Since the launch of the international air ticket marketplace, our user base has steadily grown at an average monthly rate of 20%. We also entered into a commercial arrangement with Alipay.com Co., Ltd., or AliPay, China’s leading online payment service by both number of users and total transaction volume, to provide users of our B2B travel agency marketplace an additional trusted platform for transaction settlement.

Leveraging our technological strengths and advantages, we continue to strengthen our cooperative relationship with top air ticketing agencies in major Chinese gateway cities, including Shanghai Junli, a prominent air ticketing agency in Shanghai and China nationwide in terms of air ticketing volume and the sole shareholder of Shanghai TripMart.

As part of such cooperative relationships, Shanghai Junli has agreed to outsource its key IT functionalities to us. In connection with this business arrangement, as of August 1, 2009, we completed the transfer of certain key IT personnel from Shanghai Junli and an acquisition of certain software of Shanghai Junli supporting the website operated for Shanghai Junli’s business and the related hardware equipment based on fair value of the acquired assets appraised by a qualified third party appraiser. On August 1, 2009, we entered into a management consulting services agreement and a technical services agreement with Shanghai Junli. Under these agreements, Suzhou TripMart and Shanghai TripMart will provide certain management consulting and technical services, respectively, to Shanghai Junli, in the case of Suzhou TripMart, for a fixed monthly fee based on the agreement between Suzhou TripMart and Shanghai Junli and, in the case of Shanghai TripMart, for a services fee based on Shanghai Junli’s air ticketing volume, which fees are expected to significantly contribute to our revenues in the near-term. On the same day, we also entered into an amended and restated intellectual property assignment and license agreement with TripMart to include the software, trademarks, and domain names owned by Suzhou TripMart that will be used by TripMart to provide services to Shanghai Junli.

As of August 1, 2009, among the boards of directors of Suzhou TripMart, Shanghai TripMart and Junli, all of which comprise three directors, one director of Suzhou TripMart also serves on the board of director of Shanghai TripMart, and two directors of Shanghai TripMart also serve on the board of director of Junli. We believe that the terms of these agreements are no less or more favorable than the terms that we could obtain from disinterested third parties.

For a description of these agreements, see our Current Report on Form 8-K filed on August 4, 2009.

Second Quarter Financial Performance Highlights

We continued to experience strong demand for our products and services during the second quarter of 2009, which resulted in continued growth in our revenues. Following are some financial highlights for the second quarter of 2009.

3


  • Net Revenues: Our revenues were approximately $145,475 and $149,750 for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2009, respectively, an increase from $0 and $0 from the same periods in 2008, respectively.
     

  • Net Loss: Net loss was approximately $482,091 and $658,081 for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2009, respectively, as compared to net loss of $17,484 and $17,525 from the same periods in 2008, respectively.
     

  • Fully diluted net loss per share: Fully diluted net loss per share was $0.03 and $0.04 for three months and six months ended June 30, 2009, respectively, as compared to $0.00 and $0.00 for the same periods in 2008, respectively.

Principal Factors Affecting our Financial Performance

Global and Chinese Economic Environment and Demand for Travel Services

We expect that our financial results will continue to be affected by the overall growth rate of the economy and demand for travel services in China and the rest of the world. According to a 2007 report published by the National Bureau of Statistics of China, the gross domestic product, or GDP, of China grew from RMB11.7 trillion (approximately US$1.4 trillion) in 2003 to RMB30 trillion (approximately US$4.4 trillion) in 2008, representing a compound annual growth rate of approximately 10%. This growth led to a significant increase in the demand for travel services, and according to an estimate published by the National Bureau of Statistics of China, China National Tourism Administration, or CNTA, domestic tourism spending grew from RMB344.2 billion (US$41.6 billion) in 2003 to RMB1.14 trillion (US$167 billion) in 2007, representing a compound annual growth of 27%.

However, while we expect the overall demand for travel services in China to continue to increase in the foreseeable future as the economy in China continues to grow, the current global financial crisis and economic slow-down could have a material and adverse effect on the travel industry in China, which in turn would cause a negative effect on our business. The recent global credit crunch has begun to affect China. According to data published by CNTA, the number of inbound tourists in China decreased by approximately 6.8% in 2008 as compared to 2007, while domestic and outbound tourism remained reasonably strong due to the strength of the Chinese economy and its currency. The domestic and global economic uncertainties have led companies to increasingly rely on professional business travel management solutions to reduce travel spending, and consumers increasingly rely on the efficiency and transparency of the internet to find value when booking travel services and products and demand a higher quality of services. We expect that in the current economic environment, our operating results will increasingly depend on how well we capitalize on the efficiency of our online platforms and the quality of our services.

Seasonality in the Travel Service Industry

The travel service industry is characterized by seasonal fluctuations and accordingly our revenues may vary from quarter to quarter. To date, the revenues generated during the summer season of each year generally are higher than those generated during the winter season, mainly because the summer season coincides with the peak business and leisure travel season, while the winter season of each year includes the Chinese New Year holiday, during which our customers reduce their business activities. These seasonality trends are difficult to discern in our historical results because our revenues have grown substantially since inception. However, our future results may be affected by seasonal fluctuations in the use of our services by our customers.

Disruptions in the Travel Industry

Travelers tend to modify their travel plans based on the occurrence of events such as:

  • the outbreak of avian or swine influenza, severe acute respiratory syndrome, or SARS, or any other serious contagious diseases;
     

  • increased prices in the hotel, airline or other travel-related industries;
     

  • increased occurrence of travel-related accidents;
     

  • natural disasters or poor weather conditions;

4


  • terrorist attacks or threats of terrorist attacks or war; or
     

  • general economic downturns.

During the period from March 2003 through June 2003, the economies of several countries in Asia, including China, were severely affected by the outbreak of SARS. The travel services industry during that period was also adversely affected. From time to time, there have been reports on the occurrences of avian flu in various parts of China, including a few confirmed human cases and deaths. If there is a recurrence of an outbreak of SARS or any similar outbreak of other contagious diseases such as avian flu or swine flu, it may adversely affect the travel industry and have a material and adverse effect on our business and operating results.

Product Offering and Pricing

Currently, our revenues are generated predominantly through our travel related services and, to a much lesser extent, our travel agency marketplace. As we do not pre-purchase the products and services being sold, we do not carry an inventory risk and our risk of loss due to obligations for cancelled hotel and airline ticket reservations is minimal.

Since the launch of our domestic air ticket marketplace in October 2008, our user base is growing at a rate of over 50% per month. In March 2009, we officially launched our travel agency marketplace with both domestic and international ticketing capabilities and expect to become a dominant player in B2B e-commerce platform for air ticket sales in China in terms of ticketing volume and revenue. As our user base and transaction volume on our marketplace continue to grow, revenues generated from our travel agency marketplace are expected to surpass those from our travel related services. Currently, we allow our users to search, find, communicate and conduct business with air ticket suppliers in our marketplace free of charge. When an air ticket is issued, we then charge a fee that is a fixed rate based on the amount of that transaction. We are monitoring the growth of our user base, transaction volume and overall market acceptability of our travel agency marketplace, and will review and evaluate our pricing structure and may make adjustments as appropriate to maximize our profitability.

Taxation

United States, British Virgin Islands and Hong Kong

We are subject to United States tax at a tax rate of 34%. No provision for income taxes in the United States has been made as we have no income taxable in the United States. TripMart was incorporated in the BVI and under the current laws of the BVI, is not subject to income taxes. TripMart HK was incorporated in Hong Kong and under the current laws of Hong Kong, is subject to a Profits Tax of 16.5%. No provision for Hong Kong Profits Tax has been made as TripMart HK has no taxable income.

China

Before the implementation of the New Enterprise Income Tax Law, or New EIT Law, described below, Foreign Invested Enterprises, or FIEs, established in the PRC were generally subject to an enterprise income tax, or EIT, rate of 33.0%, which includes a 30.0% state income tax and a 3.0% local income tax. On March 16, 2007, the National People’s Congress of China passed a new Enterprise Income Tax Law, or the New EIT Law, and on December 6, 2007, the State Council of China passed the Implementing Rules for the New EIT Law, or the Implementing Rules, which took effect on January 1, 2008. The New EIT Law and Implementing Rules impose a unified EIT rate of 25.0% on all domestic-invested enterprises and FIEs, unless they qualify under certain limited exceptions. Therefore, nearly all FIEs are subject to the new tax rate alongside other domestic businesses rather than benefiting from the old FIE tax laws, and its associated preferential tax treatments, beginning January 1, 2008.

Under the New EIT Law, companies designated as High- and New-Technology Enterprises may enjoy a reduced national enterprise income tax of 15%. We plan to apply for High- and New-Technology Enterprise designation for Suzhou TripMart. However, there can be no assurance that Suzhou TripMart will qualify as a High- and New-Technology Enterprise.

In addition to the new unified EIT rate, the New EIT Law and its Implementing Rules generally provide that a 10% withholding tax applies to China-sourced income derived by non-resident enterprises for PRC enterprise income tax purposes unless the jurisdiction of incorporation of such enterprises’ shareholder has a tax treaty with China that provides for a different withholding arrangement. Suzhou TripMart is considered an FIE and is directly held by our subsidiary in Hong Kong. According to a 2006 tax treaty between the Mainland and Hong Kong, dividends payable by an FIE in China to a company in Hong Kong who directly holds at least 25% of the equity interests in the FIE will be subject to a no more than 5% withholding tax. We expect that such 5% withholding tax will apply to dividends paid to TripMart by Suzhou TripMart, but this treatment will depend on our status as a non-resident enterprise.

5


Substantially all of our income may be derived from consulting and other fees paid to us by Shanghai TripMart, our VIE, and from dividends distributed to us by Suzhou TripMart, our PRC subsidiary. The consulting and other fees paid to us by Shanghai TripMart are subject to business tax and related surcharges at the applicable rate of 5.5%.

In addition to the changes to the current tax structure, under the New EIT Law, an enterprise established outside of China with “de facto management bodies” within China is considered a resident enterprise and will normally be subject to an EIT of 25% on its global income. The Implementing Rules define the term “de facto management bodies” as “substantial and overall management and control over the production and operations, personnel, accounting, and properties” of the enterprise.

On April 22, 2009, the State Administration of Taxation issued the Notice Concerning Relevant Issues Regarding Cognizance of Chinese Investment Controlled Enterprises Incorporated Offshore as Resident Enterprises pursuant to Criteria of de facto Management Bodies, or the Notice, further interpreting the application of the New EIT Law and its implementation with respect to non-Chinese enterprise or group controlled offshore entities. Pursuant to the Notice, an enterprise incorporated in an offshore jurisdiction and controlled by a Chinese enterprise or group will be classified as a “non-domestically incorporated resident enterprise” if (i) its senior management in charge of daily operation reside or perform their duties mainly in China; (ii) its financial or personnel decisions are made or approved by bodies or persons in China; (iii) its substantial properties, accounting books, corporate chops, board and shareholder minutes are kept in China; and (iv) ½ of directors with voting rights or senior management often reside in China. Such resident enterprise would be subject to an EIT rate of 25% on its worldwide income and must pay a withholding tax at a rate of 10% when paying dividends to its non-PRC shareholders. However, detailed measures on imposition of tax on non-domestically incorporated resident enterprises are not yet available. Therefore, it is unclear how tax authorities will determine tax residency based on the facts of each case.

Although we are a non-Chinese group controlled offshore entity, we may be deemed to be a resident enterprise by Chinese tax authorities. If the PRC tax authorities determine that we are a “resident enterprise” for PRC enterprise income tax purposes, a number of unfavorable PRC tax consequences could follow. First, we may be subject to the enterprise income tax at a rate of 25% on our worldwide taxable income as well as PRC enterprise income tax reporting obligations. In our case, this would mean that income such as interest on financing proceeds and non-China source income would be subject to PRC enterprise income tax at a rate of 25%. Second, although under the New EIT Law and its Implementing Rules dividends paid to us from our PRC subsidiaries would qualify as “tax-exempt income,” we cannot guarantee that such dividends will not be subject to a 10% withholding tax (under the Arrangement between the PRC and the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region on the Avoidance of Double Taxation and Prevention of Fiscal Evasion, dividends from our PRC subsidiary paid to us through our Hong Kong subsidiary will be subject to a withholding tax at a rate of 5%), as the PRC foreign exchange control authorities, which enforce the withholding tax, have not yet issued guidance with respect to the processing of outbound remittances to entities that are treated as resident enterprises for PRC enterprise income tax purposes. Finally, it is possible that future guidance issued with respect to the new “resident enterprise” classification could result in a situation in which a 5% withholding tax is imposed on dividends we pay to our non-PRC stockholders and with respect to gains derived by our non-PRC stockholders from transferring our shares. We are actively monitoring the possibility of “resident enterprise” treatment and are evaluating appropriate organizational changes to avoid this treatment, to the extent possible.

Our future effective income tax rate depends on various factors, such as tax legislation, the geographic composition of our pre-tax income and non-tax deductible expenses incurred. Our management carefully monitors these legal developments and will timely adjust our effective income tax rate when necessary.

Net Revenues. The increase in net revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2009 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2008, and for the six months ended June 30, 2009 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2008, is primarily due to our VIE arrangement with Shanghai TripMart on March 27, 2009, before which we were a shell company and had no operations. We earned revenues substantially through a series of contractual arrangements between Suzhou TripMart and Shanghai TripMart, our VIE, from the business travel management, travel products and services and online travel agency marketplace business conducted by Shanghai TripMart. We will earn additional consulting revenues in the future quarters of 2009 from the management consulting services agreement and the technical services agreement we entered into on August 1, 2009 with Shanghai Junli. With the official launch of our e-commerce travel agency marketplace in March 2009, we expect to continue to grow our business and offer more new products and services.

Selling Expenses. The increase in our selling expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2009 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2008, and for the six months ended June 30, 2009 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2008, is primarily due to our VIE arrangement with Shanghai TripMart on March 27, 2009, before which we were a shell company and had no operations. Our selling expenses consist mainly of advertising, marketing and promotional expenses.

General and Administrative Expenses. The increase in our general and administrative expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2009 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2008, and for the six months ended June 30, 2009 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2008, is primarily due to our VIE arrangement with Shanghai TripMart on March 27, 2009, before which we were a shell company and had no operations. We expect our general and administrative expenses to increase in future periods due to the expansion of our business, the hiring of new officers, employees and consultants to help further develop and support our operations and the increased legal and professional fees.

Financial Expenses. The increase in our financial expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2009 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2008, and for the six months ended June 30, 2009 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2008, is primarily due to our VIE arrangement with Shanghai TripMart on March 27, 2009, before which we were a shell company and had no operations. Our financial expenses consist mainly of interest on short-term working capital loans and a promissory note to a shareholder.

Other Income (Net). The increase in our other income for the three months ended June 30, 2009 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2008, and for the six months ended June 30, 2009 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2008, is primarily due to our VIE arrangement with Shanghai TripMart on March 27, 2009, before which we were a shell company and had no operations. Other income consists primarily of interest income earned on our bank cash balances.

Loss Before Income Taxes. The increase in loss before income taxes for the three months ended June 30, 2009 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2008, and for the six months ended June 30, 2009 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2008, is primarily due to the significant increase in our operating expenses discussed above as a result of our VIE arrangement with Shanghai TripMart on March 27, 2009, before which we were a shell company and had no operations. In light of the weakened economic conditions and the expanded operations scale, we have implemented cost effective measures to maximize our benefits from general and administrative expenses that we incur.

Income Taxes. We incurred no income tax expenses in the three months and six months ended June 30, 2009 as a result of our operating losses due to the significant increase in operating expenses discussed above, representing no change in the same period of last year.

Net Loss. The increase in net loss for the three months ended June 30, 2009 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2008, and for the six months ended June 30, 2009 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2008, is primarily due to the significant increase in our operating expenses as discussed above as a result of our VIE arrangement with Shanghai TripMart on March 27, 2009, before which we were a shell company and had no operations.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of June 30, 2009, we had cash and cash equivalents of $348,399. The following table provides detailed information about our net cash flow for all financial statements periods presented in this report.

Cash Flow
(All amounts in U.S. dollars)

    Six Months Ended June 30,  
    2009     2008  
Net cash used in operating activities $  (271,668 ) $  (17,525 )
Net cash used in investing activities   (170,022 )   (1,985,958 )
Net cash provided by financing activities   762,636     2,017,649  
Effect of foreign currency translation in cash and cash equivalents   (262 )   8,885  
Net cash inflows $  320,684   $  23,051  

Operating Activities

Net cash used in operating activities was $271,668 in the six months ended June 30, 2009, compared to $17,525 in the same period of last year. The increase is primarily a result of our VIE arrangement with Shanghai TripMart on March 27, 2009, before which we were a shell company and had no operations.

Investing Activities

Our net cash used in investing activities in the six months ended June 30, 2009 was $170,022, compared to $1,985,958 in the same period of last year. This decrease was primarily due to the significant capital expenditure needs during the six months ended June 30, 2008 which we did not experience in the six months ended June 30, 2009. Our cash used in investing activities primarily consisted of payments related to the development of our key IT technology, the acquisition of office furniture and equipment and intangible assets in connection with our expansion into additional office space, and other operational needs.

Financing Activities

Net cash flow provided by financing activities was $762,636 in the six months ended June 30, 2009, a decrease of $1,255,013 from $2,017,649 in the same period of last year. This decrease was primarily due to the additional funds required from a stockholder to meet the significant capital expenditure needs during the six months ended June 30, 2008 which we did not experience in the six months ended June 30, 2009. Of our cash provided by financial activities, $733,150 was provided by a short-term unsecured loan from a financial institution, which was fully repaid on July 8, 2009.

Prior to November 2004, Bestway Coach Express, Inc., or Bestway, was the Company’s then controlling stockholder. On November 19, 2004, Mr. Shu Keung Chui, our controlling stockholder and Chief Executive Officer, acquired all of the Company’s then outstanding capital stock held by Bestway. In connection with that acquisition transaction, Mr. Chui took assignment of all of Bestway’s right, title and interest under a promissory note in the principal amount of $101,500 dated April 23, 2002 made by the Company in favor of Bestway. The principal amount under the note bears simple interest at the rate of 8% per year. From November 19, 2004, the effective date of the acquisition transaction, no principal payments had been made under the note. During the six-month period ended June 30, 2009, we accrued interest of US$2,030 to Mr. Chui. As of June 30, 2009, the outstanding balance of the note payable to Mr. Chui, including accrued interest, was $159,908.

Capital Expenditures

Our capital expenditures were $488,282 and $1,985,958 for the six months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively. Our capital expenditures were mainly used to develop key IT technology and acquire office equipment and furniture and intangible assets in connection with our expansion of operations.

Mr. Chui from time to time paid legal and other expenses on behalf of the Company and provided funds to the Company for capital contribution to and acquisition of equity of Suzhou TripMart in 2008, which amounts are unsecured, non-interest bearing and repayable on demand. As of June 30, 2009, total expenses paid on behalf of the Company and funds advanced to the Company by Mr. Chui were $2,033,625 and are repayable to Mr. Chui as an unsecured and non-interest bearing demand loan.

We believe that our cash on hand and cash flow from operations will meet part of our present cash needs and we will require additional cash resources, including loans, to meet our expected capital expenditure and working capital for the next 12 months. We may, however, in the future, require additional cash resources due to changed business conditions, implementation of our strategy to expand our e-commerce platforms or other investments or acquisitions we may decide to pursue. If our own financial resources are insufficient to satisfy our capital requirements, we may seek to sell additional equity or debt securities or obtain additional credit facilities. The sale of additional equity securities could result in dilution to our stockholders. The incurrence of indebtedness would result in increased debt service obligations and could require us to agree to operating and financial covenants that would restrict our operations. Financing may not be available in amounts or on terms acceptable to us, if at all, especially in view of the tight credit market resulted from the current global economic crisis. Any failure by us to raise additional funds on terms favorable to us, or at all, could limit our ability to expand our business operations and could harm our overall business prospects.

Obligations Under Material Contracts

Our only purchase obligation relates to the utilization of a third-party technology as part of our software. Pursuant to our co-development agreement with Beijing Yulian Century Technology Development Co., Ltd., we pay a license fee at a rate of RMB30,000 (approximately, $4,392) per month until July, 2011.

We lease office premises under two non-cancelable operating lease agreements that will expire in 2017. The minimum future lease payments under these operating lease agreements as of June 30, 2009 were $3,432,863. Rental expenses under these operating leases were $134,592 for the six months ended June 30, 2009.

Seasonality

The travel industry is generally characterized by seasonal fluctuations with higher traffic during holiday seasons. However, as we are still in the high growth phase, the rate of our revenue growth is expected to offset any impact caused by the seasonal nature of the travel industry. See “Principal Factors Affecting our Financial Performance – Seasonality in the Travel Service Industry” above.

Inflation

Inflation and changing prices have not had a material effect on our business and we do not expect that inflation or changing prices will materially affect our business in the foreseeable future. However, our management will closely monitor the price change in travel industry and continually maintain effective cost control in operations.

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

We do not have any off balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity or capital expenditures or capital resources that is material to an investor in our securities.

Critical Accounting Policies

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires our management to make assumptions, estimates and judgments that affect the amounts reported, including the notes thereto, and related disclosures of commitments and contingencies, if any. We have identified certain accounting policies that are significant to the preparation of our financial statements. These accounting policies are important for an understanding of our financial condition and results of operation. Critical accounting policies are those that are most important to the portrayal of our financial conditions and results of operations and require management’s difficult, subjective, or complex judgment, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain and may change in subsequent periods. Certain accounting estimates are particularly sensitive because of their significance to financial statements and because of the possibility that future events affecting the estimate may differ significantly from management’s current judgments. We believe the following critical accounting policies involve the most significant estimates and judgments used in the preparation of our financial statements:

  • Use of estimates. The preparation of the financial statements requires our management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
     

  • Trade accounts receivables. In the normal course of business, we extend credit to customers. Trade accounts receivables, less allowance for doubtful accounts, reflect the net realizable value of receivables, and approximate fair value. On a regular basis, we evaluate our trade accounts receivable and establish an allowance for doubtful accounts based on a combination of specific customer circumstances, credit conditions, and payment history. A receivable is considered past due if payments have not been received within the agreed upon invoice terms. Trade accounts receivables are charged off against the allowance after management determines the potential for recovery is remote.
     

  • Impairment of long-lived assets. Long-lived assets, except goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets are reviewed for impairment when circumstances indicate the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of the assets to future net cash flows estimated by our management to be generated by such assets. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets. Assets to be disposed of by sale are recorded as held for sale at the lower of carrying value or estimated net realizable value.
     

  • Property and equipment, net. Property and equipment are recorded at cost and are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred. The principal depreciation rates are: office and computer equipment – 20% to 33%; motor vehicles –25%; leasehold improvements – over the term of the lease.
     

  • Revenue recognition. Our revenues are derived from the travel agency businesses and include (i) revenue reported at the difference between the selling price and the cost of the hotel rooms and tour packages; (ii) commission from booking air and train tickets; and (iii) transaction fee (net of third-party payment transaction charges) for air tickets sold on our online travel agency marketplace. We recognize such revenues if and when the customer’s non-refundable offer is fulfilled or air-ticketing is transacted on our online ticketing platform.

10


  • Intangible assets. Intangible assets are stated in the balance sheet at cost less accumulated amortization. The costs of the intangible assets are amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives at the annual rate of 20%, except as to development projects in progress.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2007, the Financial Accounting Standards Board, or FASB, issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standard, or SFAS, No. 141 (Revised) “Business Combinations.” SFAS No. 141 (Revised) establishes principles and requirements for how the acquirer of a business recognizes and measures in its financial statements the identifiable assets acquired, the liabilities assumed, and any noncontrolling interest in the acquiree. The statement also provides guidance for recognizing and measuring the goodwill acquired in the business combination and determines what information to disclose to enable users of the financial statements to evaluate the nature and financial effects of the business combination. The guidance becomes effective for the fiscal year beginning after December 15, 2008. The adoption of this statement has no material effect on our financial statements.

In April 2009, the FASB issued an FASB Staff Position, or FSP, No. 141R-1 “Accounting for Assets Acquired and Liabilities Assumed in a Business Combination That Arise from Contingencies” or FSP No. 141R-1. FSP 141R-1 amends the provisions in FASB Statement 141R for the initial recognition and measurement, subsequent measurement and accounting, and disclosures for assets and liabilities arising from contingencies in business combinations. FSP 141R-1 eliminates the distinction between contractual and non-contractual contingencies, including the initial recognition and measurement criteria in Statement 141R and instead carries forward most of the provisions in SFAS No. 141 for acquired contingencies. FSP 141R-1 is effective for contingent assets and contingent liabilities acquired in evaluating the impact of SFAS 141(R). The management is in the process of evaluating the impact of the adoption of this FSP on the Company’s financial statements.

In April 2009, the FASB issued three FSPs to provide additional application guidance and enhance disclosures regarding fair value measurements and impairments of securities. FSP FAS 157-4 “Determining Fair Value When the Volume and Level of Activity for the Asset or Liability Have Significantly Decreased and Identifying Transactions That Are Not Orderly” provides guidelines for making fair value measurements more consistent with the principles presented in SFAS 157. FSP FAS 107-1 and APB 28-1 “Interim Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments” enhances consistency in financial reporting by increasing the frequency of fair value disclosures. FSP FAS 115-2 and FAS 124-2 “Recognition and Presentation of Other-Than-Temporary Impairments” provides additional guidance designed to create greater clarity and consistency in accounting for and presenting impairment losses on securities. These three FSPs are effective for interim and annual periods ending after June 15, 2009, with early adoption permitted for periods ending after March 15, 2009. The adoption of these FSP has no material effect on the Company’s financial statements.

In May 2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 165 “Subsequent Events”. This Statement establishes general standards of accounting for and disclosures 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. This Statement is effective for interim and annual periods ending after June 15, 2009. The adoption of this statement has no material effect on the Company's financial statements.

In June 2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 166 “Accounting for Transfers of Financial Assets” or SFAS No. 166. SFAS No. 166 removes the concept of a qualifying special-purpose entity from SFAS 140 “Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishment of Liabilities” and removes the exception from applying FASB Interpretation No. 46 “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities” (revised December 2003), or FIN No. 46(R). This statement also clarifies the requirements for isolation and limitations on portions of financial assets that are eligible for sale accounting. This statement is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2009, for interim periods within that first annual reporting period, and for interim and annual reporting periods thereafter. Earlier application is prohibited. The management is in the process of evaluating the impact of adopting this standard on the Company’s financial statements.

In June 2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 167 “Amendments to FASB Interpretation No. 46(R)” or SFAS No. 167, which amends FIN No. 46(R) to address the elimination of the concept of a qualifying special purpose entity. SFAS No. 167 also replaces the quantitative-based risks and rewards calculation for determining which enterprise has a controlling financial interest in a variable interest entity with an approach focused on identifying which enterprise has the power to direct the activities of a variable interest entity and the obligation to absorb losses of the entity or the right to receive benefits from the entity. Additionally, SFAS No. 167 provides more timely and useful information about an enterprise’s involvement with a variable interest entity. SFAS No. 167 shall be effective as of the beginning of each reporting entity’s first annual reporting period that begins after November 15, 2009, for interim periods within that first annual reporting period, and for interim and annual reporting periods thereafter. Earlier application is prohibited. The management is in the process of evaluating the impact of adopting this standard on the Company’s financial statements.

11


In June 2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 168 “The FASB Accounting Standards Codification™ and the Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, a replacement of FASB Statement No. 162” or SFAS No. 168, which establishes the FASB Accounting Standards Codification as the source of authoritative accounting principles recognized by the FASB to be applied in the preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. SFAS No. 168 explicitly recognizes rules and interpretive releases of the SEC under federal securities laws as authoritative GAAP for SEC registrants. SFAS No. 168 will become effective for financial statements issued for interim and annual periods ending after September 15, 2009. The management expects the adoption of this standard to have no material impact on the Company’s financial statements.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures.

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act) that are designed to ensure that information that would be required to be disclosed in Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time period specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including to our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

As required by Rule 13a-15 under the Exchange Act, our management, including Mr. Shu Keung Chui, our Chief Executive Officer and Mr. Sam Yuen Yee Lau, our Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2009. Based on that evaluation, Mr. Chui and Mr. Lau concluded that as of June 30, 2009, and as of the date that the evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures was completed, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to satisfy the objectives for which they are intended.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting.

During the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2009, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Our board of directors has terminated the Company’s 2002 Stock Plan and 2002 Employee Stock Compensation Plan, effective as of August 14, 2009, and adopted the 2009 Equity Incentive Plan, or the 2009 Plan. The purposes of the 2009 Plan are:

  • To promote the long-term growth and profitability of the Company and its affiliates;
     

  • To attract and retain talented employees;
     

  • To further align employee and stockholder interests;
     

  • To continue to closely link employee compensation with Company performance, and
     

  • To maintain a culture of ownership.

The 2009 Plan is effective as of August 14, 2009, subject to approval by the Company’s stockholders at any time before August 14, 2010.

We have reserved an aggregate of 4,000,000 shares of our common stock for issuance under the 2009 Plan. No award has been granted.

The following is a brief description of the material terms of the 2009 Plan:

  • The term of the 2009 Plan is August 14, 2009 to August 14, 2019.
     

  • The 2009 Plan permits grant of awards to employees, directors and consultants of the Company or of any of our related entities, which include our subsidiaries or any entities which are not subsidiaries but any entity in which we have a direct or indirect significant interest.
     

  • The 2009 Plan is administered by our board of directors or any of its committees, or the administrator, which may delegate to an executive officer or officers the authority to grant awards under the 2009 Plan to employees who are not officers or directors, and to consultants or advisors, in accordance with such guidelines as the administrator shall set forth at any time or from time to time.
     

  • The 2009 Plan permits the grant of non-qualified and incentive stock options, restricted stock, restricted stock units, stock appreciation rights, performance units, performance shares and stock grants to all employees, officers, directors and consultants of the Company and its subsidiaries or affiliates.
     

  • The 2009 Plan prohibits the granting of stock option or stock appreciation rights at a price below fair market value on the date of grant.

13


  • The 2009 Plan provides that the administrator will determine the type of the award, the fair market value of our stock pertaining to the award, and the terms and conditions of an award, including the contingency upon continued employment with the Company, the passage of time, or such performance or vesting criteria as it deems appropriate.
     

  • The outstanding options will terminate and accelerate upon occurrence of a change of control corporate transaction where the successor entity does not assume or substitute our outstanding options under the plan. In such event, each outstanding option will become fully vested and immediately exercisable, and the transfer restrictions on the awards will be released and forfeiture rights will terminate immediately before the date of the change of control transaction, provided that the grantee’s continuous service with us has not been terminated before that date.
     

  • The 2009 Plan prohibits the repricing of the exercise price of a stock option or stock appreciation right without stockholder approval, or canceling and regranting such option or stock appreciation right with an exercise price that is less than the original exercise price of such option or stock appreciation right without stockholder approval.
