Note 1 - ORGANIZATION

Biostar Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (“Biostar” or the “Company”) was incorporated in the State of Maryland on March 27, 2007. On June 15, 2007, Biostar formed Shaanxi Biostar Biotech Ltd. (“Shaanxi Biostar”). Shaanxi Biostar is a wholly owned subsidiary of Biostar and a limited liability company organized under the laws of the People's Republic of China (the “PRC”).

On November 1, 2007, Shaanxi Biostar entered into a series of agreements including a Management Entrustment Agreement, a Shareholders’ Voting Proxy Agreement, an Exclusive Option Agreement and a Share Pledge Agreement (collectively the “Agreements”) with Shaanxi Aoxing Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. (“Aoxing Pharmaceutical”) and its owners (the “Transaction”). Aoxing Pharmaceutical is a corporation formed under the laws of the PRC. According to these Agreements, Shaanxi Biostar acquired management control of Aoxing Pharmaceutical whereby Shaanxi Biostar is entitled to all of the net profits of Aoxing Pharmaceutical as a management fee and is obligated to fund Aoxing Pharmaceutical’s operations and pay all of the debts. In exchange for entering into the Agreements, on November 1, 2007, the Company issued 19,832,311 shares of its common stock to Aoxing Pharmaceutical’s owners, representing approximately 90% of the Company’s common stock outstanding immediately after the Transaction. Therefore, the Transaction is accounted for as a reverse acquisition, and Aoxing Pharmaceutical is deemed to be the accounting acquirer in the reverse acquisition.

On July 9, 2010, following the change in registered owners of Aoxing Pharmaceutical, a set of new Agreements had been entered into with all the existing registered owners of Aoxing Pharmaceutical on the same day.

The Agreements dated July 9, 2010 are merely replacement of the Agreements dated November 1, 2007 and therefore, there is no significant change in the contractual terms between the Agreements dated July 9, 2010 and November 1, 2007. The existing registered owners of Aoxing Pharmaceutical, Shaanxi Biostar and Biostar had mutually agreed that no consideration would be paid / payable upon the execution of the Agreements on July 9, 2010. The interest of Biostar in Aoxing Pharmaceutical was not and would not be affected by the replacement of the Agreements.

The Agreements provide that Shaanxi Biostar has controlling interest in Aoxing Pharmaceutical as defined by Financial Accounting Standard Board (“FASB”) Interpretation No. 46R “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities” (“FIN 46R”), included in the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (”Codification”) as Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 810, Consolidation, an Interpretation of Accounting Research Bulletin (“ARB”) No. 51, included in the Codification as ASC 810, Consolidation, which requires Shaanxi Biostar to consolidate the financial statements of Aoxing Pharmaceutical and ultimately consolidate with its parent company, Biostar (see Note 2 “Principles of Consolidation”).

The Company, through its subsidiary and the Agreements with Aoxing Pharmaceutical, is engaged in the business of developing, manufacturing and marketing over-the-counter (“OTC”) and prescription pharmaceutical products in the PRC.
