General
Forex International Trading Corp and its subsidiary (“Forex”, “FXIT”, or the “Company”), a Nevada corporation, had been principally engaged in offering consulting for foreign currency market trading to non-US resident clients, professionals and retail clients. At December 31, 2012, the Company was focused on consulting in the trading of foreign currency, as well as reviewing and facilitating acquisitions of companies with promising business models. In some cases, those acquisitions may be outside the foreign exchange industry. 

The Company’s common stock trade on the Over the Counter Bulletin Board (OTCQB & OTCBB: FXIT). The Company’s headquarters is located at 2506 Campbell Place, Kensington MD 20895-3131. The CUSIP number for the Company is 34631J104 and the ISIA number for FXIT is US34631J1043.

Overview and Material Events
The Company was incorporated on July 22, 2009 under the laws of the State of Nevada. On September 9, 2009, the Company filed Form S-1 Registration Statement for registration of securities under the Securities Act of 1933 with the SEC, which became effective on March 5, 2010.

On April 19, 2010, the Company entered into a Software Licensing Agreement with Triple 8 Limited (“Triple 8”) which is a currency trading platform organized under the laws of Cyprus. The agreement dated April 12, 2010, whereby the Company licensed Triple 8’s proprietary trading software (the “Software”) for the purpose of developing a Forex Trading Platform and introducing prospective clients (“End Users"). Triple 8 created a website for the Company under the domain www.4xint.com which is blocked for US and Canadian clients. The Company maintains a corporate website under the domain www.forex-international-trading.com.

On November 17, 2010, the Company entered into a Share Exchange Agreement (the “APH Agreement”) with a third party foreign company, A.P. Holdings Limited (“APH”), pursuant to which the Company agreed to acquire 17,924 ordinary shares of Triple 8 (“Triple 8” or “Asset” or “Operation Unit”).  The securities acquired from APH represented approximately 45% of the issued and outstanding securities of the Triple 8.   Pursuant to the APH Agreement, in consideration for the securities of Triple 8 the Company agreed to issue 36,000,000 shares of common stock of the Company as well as a 6% Convertible Note in the principal amount of $1,200,000 due February 15, 2011 (the “APH Note”).  On December 30, 2010, the Company and APH entered into an amendment to the APH Agreement whereby the number of shares to be delivered by the Company was reduced from 36,000,000 to 25,000,000.  Furthermore, on December 30, 2010, in order to expedite the transaction and avoid further dilution of the existing shareholders, Medirad Inc. and Rasel Ltd., both shareholders of the Company, have agreed to return an aggregate of 70,000,000 shares of common stock to the Company for cancellation upon closing of the APH Agreement. The above transaction closed on December 30, 2010.

On April 5, 2011, the Company entered into a Share Exchange Agreement with a third party foreign company H.A.M. Group Limited (“HAM”) pursuant to which it acquired 1,996 ordinary shares of Triple 8  from HAM representing approximately 5% of the issued and outstanding ordinary shares of Triple 8.  After taking into account the effect of this Agreement with HAM, the Company owned approximately 49.9% of Triple 8.  In consideration of the shares, the Company issued HAM 12,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock (“HAM Stocks”) and a 6% Convertible Debenture due June 30, 2011 for the amount of $600,000 (the “HAM Note”).  The Series A Preferred Stock has a stated value of $100 per share and is convertible into our common stock at a conversion price of $0.30 per share representing 4,000,000 shares of common stock.  Furthermore, the Series A Preferred Stock votes on an as-converted basis multiplied by three and carries standard anti-dilution rights.  The Series A Preferred Stock does not carry preferential liquidation rights. 

On April 5, 2011, the Company and APH, which owned 33,000,000 shares of common stock and a 6% Convertible Debenture in the amount of $1,000,000, entered into an agreement whereby APH agreed to extend the maturity date of the APH Note from February 15, 2011 to June 30, 2011.  The Company agreed to return the 33,000,000 shares of common stock held by APH to treasury and issue APH 100,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock.  The Series A Preferred Stock has a stated value of $100 per share and is convertible into our common stock at a conversion price of $0.30 per share representing 33,333,333 shares of common stock.  Furthermore, the Series A Preferred Stock votes on an as-converted basis multiplied by three and carries standard anti-dilution rights.  The Series A Preferred Stock does not carry preferential liquidation rights (“APH Stocks”).
 
 
As previously disclosed in the Company’s Quarterly Report for the quarters ended September 30, 2011 and June 30, 2011, the HAM Note and the APH Note were in default and the parties were negotiating a further extension of the maturity date of the HAM Note and the APH Note.  The APH Note was assigned to a third party. On September 29, 2011, the Company received a formal notice of default from the holders of the HAM Note and the APH Note demanding payment of the notes and advising that they intend to take immediate legal action against the Company.  As a result of the default, the holder of the APH Note was entitled to demand the delivery of shares of Triple 8 held by the Company as consideration for the cancellation of the APH Note and the return of shares of common and preferred shares, which the Company used to pay for the acquisition. In order to avoid costly litigation and the potential detrimental impact of a judgment to the Company as a result of two defaults, the Company agreed to enter into that certain Annulment of Share Purchase Agreement with Triple 8, APH, HAM and 888 Markets (Jersey) Limited dated December 6, 2011 (the "Annulment") whereby, as a result of the parties agreement to unwind the ownership interest in Triple 8, Triple 8 agreed to pay the Company $2,001,000 over time with the initial payment of $732,000 within three days of the Annulment, $68,214 in January 2012, $73,214 per month from February 2012 through October 2012 and final payment of $541,860 in November 2012 (the "Triple Payments"). If Triple 8 fails to make any of the Triple Payments for a period of 60 days and Triple 8 will transfer 17,924 ordinary shares of Triple 8 (representing approximately 44.9% of Triple) to the Company and Triple 8 will not be entitled to have the previous Triple 8 Payments returned. On December 7, 2011, the Annulment closed and the Company received from Triple cash in the amount of $670,000 and additional amount of approximately $62,000 from Paragonex Limited. As such, the effective date of closing was December 7, 2011.
 
Since the unwinding of the Triple 8 transaction at the end of 2011, the Company decided to exit the trading business because of the unsuccessful integration of Triple 8 into the Company’s activities, and the highly regulated and competitive nature of that business. The Company was also blocked from doing business in the US, which is one of the world’s largest markets for those services. At December 31, 2012, the Company was focused on consulting in the trading of foreign currency, as well as reviewing and facilitating acquisitions of companies with promising business models. In some cases, those acquisitions may be outside the foreign exchange industry. 

On December 28, 2011, the Company formed Direct JV Investments Inc., a Nevada corporation, which is a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (“DirectJV”). For the period December 28, 2011 to December 31, 2011, Direct JV was inactive. In 2012, DirectJV’s business activities were to review acquisitions of companies with promising business models into the Company.

On February 13, 2012, DirectJV entered into a Joint Venture Agreement (the "JV Agreement") with Vulcan Oil & Gas Inc. ("Vulcan"), whereby the Company would from time to time provide financing to certain Vulcan alternative, green and solar energy projects (the "Projects") with the goal of sharing in any rebates awarded by the government on any of the Projects. Pursuant to the JV Agreement, JV provided Vulcan with $68,000 in cash (the “Funding") and credit for inventory valued at $31,327.93 for a total investment value of $99,327.93 (the "Investment").
 
On January 7, 2013, effective December 31, 2012, the Company, DirectJV and Vulcan entered an agreement (the "Agreement") pursuant to which the DirectJV Agreement was terminated, the Company issued to Vulcan a 4% convertible promissory note in the principal amount of $500,000 (the "Forex Note") and Vulcan issued to the Company a 10% Secured Promissory Note in the principal amount of $400,000 (the "Vulcan Note" and collectively with the Forex Note, the "Notes") in consideration of the Forex Note. On December 31, 2012, the Investment of $99,327.93 was written off.
 
The Forex Note maturity date is December 31, 2013, which can be extended by the Company for an additional one year at which point the 4% interest rate will increase to 10% per annum. The Forex Note may be prepaid without penalty. The Forex Note conversion price is the Variable Conversion Price, which is defined as 50% multiplied by the average of the lowest three trading prices of the Company's common stock on the OTCBB during the 10 day trading period ending on the latest complete day of trading on the OTCBB prior to the date of conversion. The Variable Conversion Price cannot be less than $0.002. At no time will Vulcan convert any amount of the Forex Note into common stock that would result in Vulcan owning more than 4.99% of the common stock outstanding of the Company.
 
The Vulcan Note has a 10% one-time interest charge on the principal sum. The interest rate will be increased by an additional 4% per annum (e.g. 14% per annum) in the event the principal is not paid by the December 31, 2013 maturity date. The collateral or security of the Vulcan Note is 50,000 watts of solar modules. The Vulcan Note may be prepaid without penalty.
 
After closing the Notes and recording of the difference as a debt discount, there are no further balances between the parties and the JV Agreement is null and void. The Company has received Vulcan's consent (subject to a fee to be negotiated upon the Company entering an agreement, with a minimum fee in the amount of the Funding) to begin negotiations with private groups to purchase certain knowledge and assets for the production of proprietary solar modules, directly or via third party. While management is of the opinion that these discussions may successfully produce agreements, there can be no guarantee of this.

As a Smaller Reporting Company, the Company is not required to include the disclosure under this Item 1A. Risk Factors.  Despite the fact that we are not required to provide risk factors, we consider the following factors to be risks to our continued growth and development:

We will be required to raise additional capital in order to implement any growth plans.
 
We plan to raise working capital that will allow us to conduct our business for the next twelve months. There is no guarantee regarding our ability to raise that capital. If adequate funds are not available, we may not be able to fund our expansion, take advantage of acquisition opportunities, develop or enhance products or services, respond to competitive pressures or maintain our public filings. Such inability could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.
 
We may need and be unable to obtain additional funding on satisfactory terms, which could dilute our shareholders or impose burdensome financial restrictions on our business.
 
Unforeseeable circumstances may occur which could compel us to seek additional funds. Furthermore, future events, including the problems, delays, expenses and other difficulties frequently encountered by start-up companies may lead to cost increases that could make the net proceeds of this offering insufficient to fund our proposed business plan. Thus, the proceeds of the offering may be insufficient to accomplish our objectives and we may have to borrow or otherwise raise additional funds to accomplish such objectives. We may seek additional sources of capital, including an additional offering of our equity securities, an offering of debt securities or obtaining financing through a bank or other entity. This may not be available on a timely basis, in sufficient amounts or on terms acceptable to us. Our inability to raise additional equity capital or borrow funds required to affect our business plan, may have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and future prospects. Additionally, to the extent that further funding ultimately proves to be available, both debt and equity financing involve risks. Debt financing may require us to pay significant amounts of interest and principal payments, reducing the resources available to us to expand our existing businesses. Some types of equity financing may be highly dilative to our stockholders' interest in our assets and earnings. Any debt financing or other financing of securities senior to common stock will likely include financial and other covenants that will restrict our flexibility.
 
We will have inadequate capital to pay significant additional expenses we expect to incur as a public company and, as a result, we will be required to raise additional capital further diluting investors that participated in prior offerings.
 
We are a reporting company subject to the requirements of the Exchange Act.  In order to comply with such reporting requirements, we will incur additional administrative expenses including substantial legal and accounting expenses.  We expect such fees to be approximately $50,000 per year.  As a result, we will be required to raise additional debt or equity financing, of which there is no guarantee that such financing will be available or available on acceptable terms.  If we are required to raise additional funds or do not deploy our capital in the appropriate manner and if we raise such proceeds in the form of equity, our shareholders will be further diluted.
 
 
Our success will be dependent on attracting key and other personnel, particularly in the areas of management, technical services and customer support.
 
We believe that our success will depend on the continued efforts of management for the development of our platform and to pursue financial transactions to earn a return on capital. Such experience will be important to the establishment of our business. Our success also depends on having highly trained technical and customer support personnel.
 
We may have difficulty attracting and employing members to our senior management team and sufficient technical and customer support personnel to keep up with our growth needs. This shortage could limit our ability to increase sales and to sell services. Competition for personnel is intense. If we cannot hire suitable personnel to meet our growth needs, our business and operations will be negatively affected.

We may not be able to make future acquisitions and new strategic alliances, and, even if we do, such acquisitions and alliances may disrupt or otherwise negatively affect our business.
 
Our business plan contemplates that we may make acquisitions.  Future acquisitions are subject to the following risks:
 
·
we may not be able to agree on the terms of the acquisition or alliance, such as the amount or price of our acquired interest;
 
·
acquisitions and alliances may make it difficult to implement or maintain our systems, controls and procedures;
 
·
we may acquire companies or make strategic alliances in markets in which we have little experience;
 
·
we may not be able successfully to integrate the services, products and personnel of any acquisition or new alliance into our operations;
 
·
we may be required to incur debt or issue equity securities to pay for acquisitions, which may result in significant dilution to existing shareholders, or we may not be able to finance the acquisitions at all; and
 
·
our acquisitions and strategic alliances may not be successful, and we may lose our entire investment.

In addition, we will face competition from other parties, including large public and private companies, venture capital firms, and other companies, in our search for suitable acquisitions and alliances. Many of the companies we will compete with for acquisitions have substantially greater name recognition and financial resources than we have, which may limit our opportunity to acquire interests in new companies, technologies and assets or create strategic alliances. Even if we are able to find suitable acquisition candidates or develop acceptable strategic alliances, doing so may require more time and expense than we expect because of intense competition.
Anti-takeover provisions and our right to issue preferred stock could make a third party acquisition of us difficult.
 
The Company is a Nevada corporation. Anti-takeover provisions of Nevada law tend to make it difficult for a third party to acquire control of us, even if a change in control would be beneficial to our shareholders. In addition, our board of directors may issue preferred stock with voting or conversion rights that may have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a change of control. Preventing a change of control could adversely affect the market price of Forex common stock and the voting and other rights of holders of Forex common stock.
 
Our common stock price is highly volatile.
 
The market price of our common stock is highly volatile, as the stock market in general, and the market for Internet-related and technology companies in particular, has been highly volatile. Our shareholders may not be able to resell their shares of our common stock following periods of volatility because of the market's adverse reaction to this volatility.  Factors that could cause this volatility may include, among other things:
 
 
•           announcements of technological innovations and the creation and failure of B2B marketplaces;
 
•           actual or anticipated variations in quarterly operating results;
   
•           new sales formats or new products or services;
 
•           changes in financial estimates by securities analysts;
 
•           conditions or trends in the Internet, B2B and other industries;
 
•           changes in the market valuations of other Internet companies;
 
•           announcements by us or our competitors of significant acquisitions, strategic partnerships or joint ventures;
 
•           changes in capital commitments;
 
•           additions or departures of key personnel;
 
•           sales of our common stock; and
 
•           general market conditions.
 
Many of these factors are beyond our control.

 
As a Smaller Reporting Company, the Company is not required to include the disclosure under this Item 1B. Unresolved Staff Comments. At this time, there are no unresolved staff comments.
 

The Company’s headquarters are located at 2506 Campbell Place, Kensington MD 20895-3131. The Company is paying no rent for the use of this location, which is owned by the Company’s CEO, President and Treasurer Robert Morris Price.  
 
From time to time, the Company may be involved in various litigation matters, which arise in the ordinary course of business.  There is currently no litigation that management believes will have a material impact on the financial position of the Company. On June 13, 2011, Forex International Trading Corp. (the “Company”) commenced a civil action (the “San Diego Action”) against George A. Sharp in the San Diego County Superior Court bearing Case No. 37-2011-00092840 CU-DF-CTL.   David Harter represented Mr. Sharp in the San Diego Action.  Mr. Sharp filed a motion to dismiss (the “Motion to Dismiss”) the San Diego Action. The Company voluntarily dismissed the San Diego Action without prejudice. Thereafter, Mr. Sharp made a motion for the recovery of his fees and costs in connection with the Motion to Dismiss.  On September 27, 2012, the court entered judgment (the “San Diego Judgment”) in favor of Mr. Sharp and against the Company in the San Diego Action for fees and costs in connection with the Motion to Dismiss.  Mr. Harter claimed he has an attorney’s lien on the San Diego Judgment.

In addition, the Company became the assignee of that certain judgment (the “Los Angeles Judgment”) for costs and attorney fees entered in favor of Yasheng Eco-Trade Corporation and against Mr. Sharp, entered in Los Angeles County Superior Court bearing Case No. 10K15452 on July 28, 2011.

On December 4, 2012, the Company entered into a Settlement Agreement and Mutual General Release Agreement with third parties t pursuant to which (i) the Company agreed to pay the third parties $10,000; (ii) the Company delivered to the third parties an Acknowledgment of Satisfaction of Judgment regarding the Los Angeles Judgment; (iii) The third parties shall deliver to the Company an Acknowledgment of Satisfaction of Judgment regarding the San Diego Judgment; and (iv) the parties agreed to settle all claims, demands, and/or causes of action which may exist between them, whether known, unknown or suspected in connection with the San Diego Action, the Motion to Dismiss, the San Diego Judgment and the Los Angeles Judgment.
 
 
Other than the above, we are currently unaware of any such additional legal proceedings or claims that we believe will have, individually or in the aggregate, a material adverse affect on our business, financial condition or operating results.
 

Not applicable.

Triple 8 Acquisition and Divestiture
 
On November 17, 2010, the Company entered into a Share Exchange Agreement (the transaction was effectively closed on December 30, 2010) to acquire 17,924 common shares, representing 44.9% of the issued and outstanding shares of Triple 8 Limited (“Triple 8”) from A.P. Holdings Limited (“APH”) (the “APH Agreement”).  In consideration for its purchase, Forex issued 25,000,000 shares of common stock and a Note Payable (the “APH Note”) in the principal amount of $1,200,000, bearing interest at an annual rate of 6% and was convertible into 6 million shares of common stock.  The APH Note was originally due on February 15, 2011.  Concurrently, certain shareholders of Forex agreed to surrender 70,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock for cancellation to avoid diluting the ownership of other existing shareholders.
 
Following the purchase of Triple 8 shares from APH, we entered into another Share Exchange Agreement to acquire 1,996 common shares, or 5% of the issued and outstanding common shares of Triple 8, from the H.A.M. Group Limited (“HAM”).  As a result, our ownership of Triple 8 increased to 49.9% of the issued and outstanding common shares.  As consideration for its purchase, Forex issued HAM 12,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock and a 6% Convertible Debenture for $600,000, due September 30, 2011 (the “HAM Note”).  The Series A Preferred Stock has a stated value of $100 per share and is convertible into our common stock at a conversion price of $0.30 per share, thus representing 4,000,000 shares of common stock of the Company.
 
The Company defaulted on its note payable to APH and on its obligation under the HAM Note.  In order to avoid costly litigation and the potential detrimental impact of a judgment against the Company, as a result of two defaults, entered into an agreement to annul its purchases of its ownership interest in Triple 8.  As a part of the Annulment:
 
·  
Triple 8 agreed to pay Forex $2,001,000 (the “Triple Payments”) through November 2012.
 
·  
Forex issued a new $1,000,000 promissory note (the "CDOO Note") to an assignee of HAM and APH as consideration for the termination of the APH Note and the HAM Note, which were both in default.    The CDOO note bore s interest at an annual rate of ten percent (10%) and was due and payable in full on November 30, 2012.
 
·  
APH and HAM agreed to return all of their stock holdings to the Company for cancellation.
 
 
The Annulment closed on December 7, 2011, and the Company received its initial Triple Payment of $732,000 in cash at that time.   During 2012 the Company received the remaining Triple 8 Payments of $1,269,000 for the aggregate amount of $2,001,000 and the Company paid off the CDOO note during 2012.
 
Joint Venture Agreement with Vulcan Oil & Gas Inc.
 
On February 13, 2012, DirectJV entered into a Joint Venture Agreement (the "JV Agreement") with Vulcan Oil & Gas Inc. ("Vulcan"), whereby the Company would from time to time provide financing to certain Vulcan alternative, green and solar energy projects (the "Projects") with the goal of sharing in any rebates awarded by the government on any of the Projects. Pursuant to the JV Agreement, Direct JV provided Vulcan with $68,000 in cash (the Funding") and credit for inventory valued at $31,327.93 for a total investment value of $99,327.93 (the "Investment").
 
 
On January 7, 2013, effective December 31, 2012, the Company, DirectJV and Vulcan entered an agreement (the "Agreement") pursuant to which the JV Agreement was terminated, the Company issued to Vulcan a 4% convertible promissory note in the principal amount of $500,000 (the "Forex Note") and Vulcan issued to the Company a 10% Secured Promissory Note in the principal amount of $400,000 (the "Vulcan Note" and collectively with the Forex Note, the "Notes") in consideration of the Forex Note. On December 31, 2012, the Investment of $99,327.93 was written off.
 
 
The Forex Note maturity date is December 31, 2013, which can be extended by the Company for an additional one year at which point the 4% interest rate will increase to 10% per annum. The Forex Note may be prepaid without penalty. The Forex Note conversion price is the Variable Conversion Price, which is defined as 50% multiplied by the average of the lowest three trading prices of the Company's common stock on the OTCBB during the 10 day trading period ending on the latest complete day of trading on the OTCBB prior to the date of conversion. The Variable Conversion Price cannot be less than $0.002. At no time will Vulcan convert any amount of the Forex Note into common stock that would result in Vulcan owning more than 4.9% of the common stock outstanding of the Company.
 
 
The Vulcan Note has a 10% one-time interest charge on the principal sum. The interest rate will be increased by an additional 4% per annum (e.g. 14% per annum) in the event the principal is not paid by the December 31, 2013 maturity date. The collateral or security of the Vulcan Note is 50,000 watts of solar modules. The Vulcan Note may be prepaid without penalty.
 
 
After closing the Notes and recording of the difference as a debt discount, there are no further balances between the parties and the JV Agreement is null and void. The Company has received Vulcan's consent (subject to a fee to be negotiated upon the Company entering an agreement, with a minimum fee in the amount of the Funding) to begin negotiations with private groups to purchase certain knowledge and assets for the production of proprietary solar modules, directly or via third party. While management is of the opinion that these discussions may successfully produce agreements, there can be no guarantee of this.

Critical Accounting Policies and Use of Estimates

Our Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations is based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). The preparation of our consolidated financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP requires us to make certain estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements, the reported amounts and classification of revenues and expenses during the periods presented, and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. We evaluate our estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis and material changes in these estimates or assumptions could occur in the future. Changes in estimates are recorded on the period in which they become known. We base our estimates on historical experience and various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances and at that time, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ materially from these estimates if past experience or other assumptions doe not turn out to be substantially accurate.

We believe that the accounting policies described below are critical to understanding our business, results of operations, and financial condition because they involve significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements. An accounting is deemed to be critical if it requires a judgment or accounting estimate to be made based on assumptions about matters that are highly uncertain , and if different estimates that could have been used, or if changes in the accounting estimates that are reasonably likely to occur periodically , could materially impact our consolidated financial statements. Other significant accounting policies, primarily those with lower levels of uncertainty than those discussed below, are also critical to understanding our consolidated financial statements. The notes to our consolidated financial statements contain additional information related to our accounting policies and should be read in conjunction with this discussion.

Use of Estimates
 
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 disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Significant estimates include v, the useful lives of tangible and intangible assets, depreciation and amortization, allowances for doubtful account and credit losses, valuation of common and preferred stock issuances, and the valuation allowance on deferred tax assets. , Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Going Concern

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. There is substantial doubt regarding the Company’s abilities to finance its operations over the next 12 months.  The future of the Company is dependent upon its ability to raise funds, generate revenues and upon future profitable operations from the development of its new business opportunities.   The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of liabilities that might be necessary in the event the Company cannot continue in existence.

Notes and Short-Term Receivable

The notes and short-term receivable are carried at cost, which approximates fair value.  The Company measures the impairment of loans based on its historical loan collection experience and existing economic conditions.  Impairment of the loan is recognized when management believes it is probable that payments will not be received on some portion of the loan, which is determined on an individual loan basis. When management determines that a loan is impaired it is placed on non-accrual status, and an allowance for loan losses is established to recognize the estimated amount of impairment.  Payments received on non-accrual loans are generally applied to the outstanding principal balance.  Loans are removed from non-accrual status when management believes that the borrower will resume making the payments required by the loan agreement.
 
Impairment of long lived assets

As required by U.S. GAAP for long-lived assets, the Company evaluates the fair value of long-lived assets on an annual basis or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that its carrying amounts may not be recoverable. Accordingly, any impairment of value is recognized when the carrying amount of a long-lived asset exceeds its fair value. No impairment losses have been recognized at December 31, 2012 and 2011.
 
 
Revenue Recognition

Income from foreign currency operations is earned by referring potential customers to foreign exchange trading companies.  The Company’s websites identify potential customers with a short-term foreign exchange trading need.  Foreign exchange trading companies remit a percentage of their revenues to the Company in exchange for customer leads, which the Company recognizes when the exchange trading occurs.
 
The Company recognizes consulting fees when services have been rendered.
 
Share-Based Compensation
 
The Company calculates stock-based compensation expense including compensation expense for all share-based payment awards made to employees and directors including employee stock options, stock appreciation rights and restricted stock awards based on their estimated grant date fair values.  The value of the portion of the award that is ultimately expected to vest is recognized as an expense on a straight-line basis over any required service period.  No such expenses were recognized during the years ended December 31, 2012 or 2011.
 
 
New Accounting Pronouncements
The Company does not expect the adoption of recently issued accounting pronouncements to have a significant impact on the Company’s results of operations, financial position or cash flows.
 
 
The Company has implemented all new accounting pronouncements that are in effect that are applicable.   These pronouncements did not have any material impact on the consolidated financial statements unless otherwise disclosed, and the Company does not believe that there are any other new accounting pronouncements that have been issued that might have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations.


As a Smaller Reporting Company, the Company is not required to include the disclosure under this Item.
 

 The information required by Item 8 appears at Page F-1, which appears after the signature page to this report.
 
 
None.


Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As of the end of the year covered by this report, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.  Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of the end of the applicable period to ensure that the information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act (i) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms, and (ii) is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.
 
 
As a smaller reporting company, without a viable business and revenues, the Company does not have the resources to install a dedicated staff with deep expertise in all facets of SEC disclosure and GAAP compliance. As is the case with many smaller reporting companies, the Company will continue to consult with its external auditors and attorneys as it relates to new accounting principles and changes to SEC disclosure requirements. The Company has found that this approach worked well in the past and believes it to be the most cost effective solution available for the foreseeable future.  The Company will conduct a review of existing sign-off and review procedures as well as document control protocols for critical accounting spreadsheets. The Company will also increase management's review of key financial documents and records.

As a small business, the Company does not have the resources to fund sufficient staff to ensure a complete segregation of responsibilities within the accounting function. However, Company management does review, and will increase the review of, financial statements on a monthly basis, and the Company's external auditor conducts reviews on a quarterly basis. These actions, in addition to the improvements identified above, will minimize any risk of a potential material misstatement occurring.
 
Managements Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Our internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and includes those policies and procedures that:

 
·
Pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and disposition of our assets;
 
 
·
Provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, and that our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of our management and directors; and
 
 
·
Provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. All internal control systems, no matter how well designed, have inherent limitations and provide only reasonable assurance, not absolute assurance, with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation. The design of an internal control system reflects resource constraints and the benefits must be considered relative to the costs of implementing and maintaining the system.

Management assessed the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2012. This assessment was based on criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). Based on our assessment, other than the control weakness mentioned above, we believe that as of December 31, 2012 the Company’s internal control over financial reporting was not effective based on those criteria. There is a division of duties problem, caused by the fact that we are thinly staffed. The reason for this thin staffing level is that fact that we do not currently have a viable business with revenues and cash flow to support higher levels of staff.

This annual report does not include an attestation report of our 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 Securities and Exchange Commission that permit us to provide only management’s report in this annual report.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting during the fourth quarter of 2011 that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

On November 15, 2011, Liat Franco was appointed by the Company to serve as the Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, Secretary, Treasurer and a director of the Company. Mrs. Franco resigned as CEO on April 23, 2012, and as a Director from the Company on May 23, 2012. For her services during the Term as Secretary, the Company issued Ms. Franco 554,520 restricted shares of common stock of the Company.

On or around December 31, 2012, the Company issued common shares to former directors William Glass, Stewart Reich, and Liat Franco to settle their Director fees. To Messrs. Glass and Reich, we issued 2,042,740 restricted shares each valued at $15,321. To Mrs. Franco, formerly a Director and the CEO of the Company, the Company issued 554,520 restricted shares valued at $4,159.
 
Effective January 2, 2012, Erik Klinger was appointed by the Company to serve as the Chief Financial Officer and a Director of the Company.  Mr. Klinger’s principal objectives will be to assist in the deployment of the Corporation’s assets, management and oversight of the Corporation’s financial statements and filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission and to perform due diligence on proposed acquisition targets, if any.

On April 23, 2012, Robert Morris Price was appointed by the Company to serve as the President, Chief Executive Officer, and Treasurer as well as Chairman of the Company.  Mr. Price has been involved in the private practice of law for the last 50 years and was admitted to the District of Columbia Bar in 1963, to the U.S. Supreme Court in 1967, and to Maryland and U.S. Court of Appeals, Fourth Circuit in 1976.

Procedures for Approval of Related Party Transactions

Our Board of Directors is charged with reviewing and approving all potential related party transactions.  All such related party transactions must then be reported under applicable SEC rules. We have not adopted other procedures for review, or standards for approval, of such transactions, but instead review them on a case-by-case basis.

Director Independence

In 2012 Board of Directors has determined that Mr. Price and Mr. Klinger are each independent directors as of December 31, 2012, based on the definition of independence in the listing standards of the NASDAQ Corporate Governance Rules.  Mr. Klinger was appointed as the Chief Financial Officer of the Company as of January 2, 2012 and, as a result, Mr. Klinger is no longer considered independent as of the date of this filing.  The Board of Directors is currently evaluating committee charters with the goal of establishing a Compensation Committee, Governance and Nominating Committee and an Audit Committee.


We engaged Eugene M. Egeberg, CPA as our auditor for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010 (and 2009).
 
On December 30, 2011 (the "Dismissal Date"), we dismissed Eugene M. Egeberg, CPA (the "Former Auditor") as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm. The decision to dismiss the Former Auditor as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm was approved by the Company's Board of Directors on December 30, 2011. The reports of the Former Auditor on the Company's consolidated financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2010 and July 31, 2010 did not contain an adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, and such reports were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principle. During 2011 and until Dismissal Date we incurred $9,000 in fees for professional services rendered for the reviews of the financial statements included in our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q.
 
 
 
On December 28, 2011 (the "Engagement Date"), the Company engaged Rosen, Seymour, Shapss, Martin & Company LLP ("New Auditor") as its independent registered public accounting firm for the Company's fiscal year ended December 31, 2011. The decision to engage the New Auditor as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm was approved by the Company's Board of Directors.
 
The aggregate fees accrued for  professional services rendered for the audit of our annual financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011 and for the reviews of the financial statements included in our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q during these fiscal years were $14,585 for 2011 for the Former Auditor. In fiscal 2012, we paid $94,585 to the New Auditors for the audit of 2011 and reviews of the quarterly filings. These fees were higher than anticipated, due to additional work related to the restatement of prior year’s financials.
 
We incurred $15,000 fees to an accountant for tax advice and tax compliance services during the fiscal years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011.

The Company’s board has considered whether the provision of non-audit services is compatible with maintaining the principal accountant’s independence.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Forex International Trading Corp. and Subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2012 and 2011, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ (deficiency) equity and cash flows for the years then ended.  These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management.  Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.
 
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States).  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement.  The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting.  Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.  Accordingly, we express no such opinion.  An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.  We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
 
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Forex International Trading Corp. as of December 31, 2012 and 2011, and the consolidated results of its operations and its cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
 
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 3 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company generated no revenues in 2012, has had recurring losses from operations since inception, and has a negative working capital and stockholder’s deficiency as of December 31, 2012. The future of the Company is dependent upon its ability to raise equity and debt financing, generate revenues, and upon future profitable operations from the development of new business opportunities. These circumstances create substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s intentions with respect to this matter are described in Note 3. The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of these uncertainties.

FOREX INTERNATIONAL TRADING CORP.
YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2012 AND 2011
 
1.      Organization and Nature of Business
 
Forex International Trading Corp. (the “Company”) was incorporated on July 22, 2009 under the laws of the State of Nevada and is headquartered in Kensington, Maryland.  On September 9, 2009 the Company filed Form S-1 Registration Statement to provide for the registration of securities under the Securities Act of 1933. The Company’s principal business activities have been to engage in foreign currency market trading for non-US resident professionals and retail clients over its web-based trading systems. While these trading operations have been closed, the Company continues to operate in the consulting segment of the foreign currency market, leveraging its contacts and knowledge. In addition, the Company is analyzing investments in joint ventures and is selectively pursuing acquisitions.
 
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
 
Presentation and Basis of Financial Statements
 
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). These consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Forex International Trading Corp. and its wholly-owned subsidiary – Direct JV Investments Inc (“Directjv”) (together “Forex” or the “Company”).
 
All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
 
Use of Estimates
 
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Significant estimates include the useful lives of tangible and intangible assets, depreciation and amortization, allowances for doubtful accounts and loan losses, valuation of common and preferred stock issuances, and the valuation allowance on deferred tax assets. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
 
Cash and Cash Equivalents
 
The Company considers all highly liquid financial instruments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
 
Notes and Short-Term Receivable
 
The notes and short-term receivable are carried at cost, which approximates fair value. The Company measures the impairment of loans based on its historical loan collection experience and existing economic conditions. Impairment is recognized when management believes it is probable that payments will not be received on some portion of the loan, which is determined on an individual loan basis. The Company evaluates loans for impairment on an annual basis or when there are indications that the loan may not be collected. When management determines that a loan is impaired it is placed on non-accrual status, and an allowance for loan losses is established to recognize the estimated amount of impairment.  Payments received on non-accrual loans are generally applied to the outstanding principal balance. Loans are removed from non-accrual status when management believes that the borrower will resume making the payments required by the loan agreement.
 
Property and Equipment
 
Property and equipment are stated at cost and the related depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the respective assets.  Expenditures for repairs and maintenance are charged to operations as incurred.  Renewals and betterments are capitalized.  Upon the sale or retirement of an asset, the related costs and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any gain or loss is recognized in the results of operations.
 
Leasehold improvements are amortized over the lesser of the estimated life of the asset or the lease term.
 
As required by U.S. GAAP for long-lived assets, the Company evaluates the fair value of its property and equipment on an annual basis or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amounts may not be recoverable.  Any impairment of value is recognized when the carrying amount of the asset exceeds its fair value.  There were no impairment losses for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011.

YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2012 AND 2011
Fair value measurements
 
Financial instruments and certain non-financial assets and liabilities are measured at their fair value as determined based on the assets highest and best use.  GAAP has established a framework for measuring fair value that is based on a hierarchy which requires that the valuation technique used be based on the most objective inputs available for measuring a particular asset or liability.  There are three broad levels in the fair value hierarchy which describe the degree of objectivity of the inputs used to determine fair value.  The fair value hierarchy is set forth below:
 
 
Level 1 — inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.
 
 
Level 2 — inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument.
 
 
Level 3 — inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement. They are based on best information available in the absence of level 1 and 2 inputs.
 
The carrying value of financial instruments, which include cash and cash equivalents, notes receivable, notes payable, and accrued expenses, approximate their fair values due to the short-term nature of these financial instruments.
 
Treasury Stock
 
Treasury stock is recorded at cost.  The re-issuance of treasury shares is accounted for on a first in, first-out basis and any difference between the cost of treasury shares and the re-issuance proceeds are charged or credited to additional paid-in capital. During 2011, the Company bought back 38,000 of its own shares.
 
Income Taxes
 
The Company accounts for income taxes using the liability method, which provides for an asset and liability approach to accounting for income taxes.  Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recorded for future tax effects of temporary differences between the financial reporting and tax basis of assets and liabilities, and measured using the current tax rates and laws that are expected to be in effect when the underlying assets or liabilities are anticipated to be recovered or settled.  Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount of tax benefits expected to be realized.
 
U.S. GAAP requires that, in applying the liability method, the financial statement effects of an uncertain tax position be recognized based on the outcome that is more likely than not to occur.  Under this criterion the most likely resolution of an uncertain tax position should be analyzed based on technical merits and on the outcome that would likely be sustained under examination.  The Company had no uncertain tax positions as of December 31, 2012, and is current in its tax filings.
 
Revenue Recognition
 
Income from foreign currency operations is earned by referring potential customers to foreign exchange trading companies.  Foreign exchange trading companies remit a percentage of their revenues to the Company in exchange for customer leads, which the Company recognizes when the exchange trading occurs.
 
The Company recognizes consulting fees when services have been rendered.
 
Share-Based Compensation
 
The Company calculates stock-based compensation expense including compensation expense for all share-based payment awards made to employees and directors including employee stock options, stock appreciation rights and restricted stock awards based on their estimated grant date fair values.  The value of the portion of the award that is ultimately expected to vest is recognized as an expense on a straight-line basis over any required service period.  No such expenses were recognized for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011.  
 
Earnings (Loss) Per Share
 
Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period.  Diluted earnings (loss) per share considers the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or could otherwise cause the issuance of common stock, such as options, convertible notes and convertible preferred stock, were exercised or converted into common stock or could otherwise cause the issuance of common stock that then shared in earnings (loss). Such potential additional common shares are included in the computation of diluted earnings per share.  Diluted loss per share has not been computed for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011 because any potential additional common shares would reduce the reported loss per share and therefore have an antidilutive effect.

YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2012 AND 2011
 
3.  Liquidity and Going Concern
 
The Company generated no revenues in 2012, has had recurring losses from operations since inception, and has a negative working capital and stockholder’s deficiency as of December 31, 2012. These factors create substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The 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 plans to raise working capital that will allow Forex to conduct their business for the next twelve months. There is no guarantee regarding the Company’s ability to raise that capital. The Company expects to use the proceeds to fund its short-term capital requirements including paying administrative expenses associated with maintaining public company’s filings for the next 12 months.    In order for the Company to implement their business plan and pay various administrative expenses on a minimal basis for 12 months, the Company expects that it will need cash of approximately $25, 000 per month at a minimum.   The Company expects to be able to remain in operations for a period of 12 months with cash on hand and/or cash from collecting receivables and/or other debts.  The Company expects that its operating results will fluctuate significantly from quarter to quarter in the future and will depend on a number of factors including the state of the worldwide economy and financial markets, which are outside the Company's control.
 
4.      Investments and Acquisitions and Divestiture
 
Investment in Private Company—Triple 8
 
On November 17, 2010, the Company entered into a Share Exchange Agreement, which closed on December 30, 2010, to acquire 17,924 common shares, representing 44.9% of the issued and outstanding shares of Triple 8 Limited (“Triple 8”) from A.P. Holdings Limited (“APH”) (the “APH Agreement”).  In consideration for its purchase the Company issued 25,000,000 shares of common stock and a Note Payable (the “APH Note”) in the principal amount of $1,200,000, bearing interest at an annual rate of 6% and convertible into 6 million shares of common stock.  The APH Note was originally due on February 15, 2011.  Concurrently, certain shareholders agreed to surrender 70,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock for cancellation to avoid diluting the ownership of the other existing shareholders. Following the purchase of Triple 8 shares from APH, the Company entered into another Share Exchange Agreement to acquire 1,996 common shares, or 5% of the issued and outstanding common shares of Triple 8, from the H.A.M. Group Limited (“HAM”).  As a result, the Company’s ownership of Triple 8 increased to 49.9% of the issued and outstanding common shares.  As consideration for its purchase, the Company issued HAM 12,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock and a 6% Convertible Debenture for $600,000, due September 30, 2011 (the “HAM Note”).  The Series A Preferred Stock has a stated value of $100 per share and is convertible into common stock at a conversion price of $0.30 per share, thus representing 4,000,000 shares of common stock of the Company.
 
The Company defaulted on its note payable to APH and on its obligation under the HAM Note.  In order to avoid costly litigation and the potential detrimental impact of a judgment against the Company, as a result of two defaults, the Company entered into an agreement on December 7, 2011 to annul its purchases of its ownership interest in Triple 8.  As a part of the Annulment:
 
·  
Triple 8 agreed to pay the Company $2,001,000 (the “Triple Payments”) through November 2012.
 
·  
The Company issued a new $1,000,000 promissory note (the "CDOO Note") to an assignee of HAM and APH as consideration for the termination of the APH Note and the HAM Note, which were both in default.  The CDOO note had an annual interest rate of ten percent (10%) and was payable in full on November 30, 2012.
 
·  
APH and HAM agreed to return all of their stock holdings to the Company for cancellation.
 
The Company has received Triple 8 Payments in the aggregate amount of $2,001,000 and had paid the CDOO note in the aggregate amount of $1 million as per the terms of the agreements during the year ended December 31, 2012.

Investment in Joint Venture – Vulcan Oil & Gas Inc.
 
On February 13, 2012, Direct JV Investments Inc. ("JV"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company entered into a Joint Venture Agreement (the "JV Agreement") with Vulcan Oil & Gas Inc. ("Vulcan"), whereby the Company would from time to time provide financing to certain Vulcan alternative, green and solar energy projects (the "Projects") with the goal of sharing in any rebates awarded by the government on any of the Projects. Pursuant to the JV Agreement, JV provided Vulcan with $68,000 in cash (the Funding") and credit for inventory valued at $31,328 for a total investment value of $99,328 (the "Investment").
 
On January 7, 2013, effective December 31, 2012, the Company, JV and Vulcan entered an agreement (the "Agreement") pursuant to which the JV Agreement was terminated, the Company issued to Vulcan a 4% convertible promissory note in the principal amount of $500,000 (the "Forex Note") and Vulcan issued to the Company a 10% Secured and Collateralized Promissory Note in the principal amount of $400,000 (the "Vulcan Note" and collectively with the Forex Note, the "Notes") in consideration of the Forex Note. The Investment of $99,328 was written off as of December 31, 2012 (as discussed in Note 8c).
 
The Forex Note maturity date is December 31, 2013, which can be extended by the Company for an additional one year at which point the 4% interest rate will increase to 10% per annum. The Forex Note may be prepaid without penalty. The Forex Note conversion price is the Variable Conversion Price, which is defined as 50% multiplied by the average of the lowest three trading prices of the Company's common stock on the OTCBB during the 10 day trading period ending on the latest complete day of trading on the OTCBB prior to the date of conversion. The Variable Conversion Price cannot be less than $0.002. At no time will Vulcan convert any amount of the Forex Note into common stock that would result in Vulcan owning more than 4.9% of the common stock outstanding of the Company.
 
The Vulcan Note has a 10% one-time interest charge on the principal sum. The interest rate will be increased by an additional 4% per annum (e.g. 14% per annum) in the event the principal is not paid by the December 31, 2013 maturity date. The collateral or security of the Vulcan Note is 50,000 watts of solar modules. The Vulcan Note may be prepaid without penalty.
 
After closing the Notes and recording of the difference as a debt discount, there are no further balances due between the parties and the JV Agreement is null and void. The Company has received Vulcan's consent (subject to a fee to be negotiated upon the Company entering an agreement, with a minimum fee in the amount of the Funding) to begin negotiations with private groups to purchase certain knowledge and assets for the production of proprietary solar modules, directly or via third party. While management is of the opinion that these discussions may successfully produce agreements, there can be no guarantee of this.

On October 6, 2009 the Company signed a note payable for $25,000 to Rasel due on October 6, 2010 bearing interest at 4% per annum. The proceeds were used to pay for half of existing accounts payable for legal fees incurred at the Company’s inception. On October 20, 2009 the Company signed a note payable for $50,000 payable to Rasel due on October 20, 2010 bearing interest at 4% per annum.

The Company recognized a debt discount in the amount of $100,000 for the difference in the face value of the note issued and the note received from the same party. The face value of the note payable is shown net of the debt discount .This debt discount will be amortized over the one year life of the note. The note has a maturity date of December 31, 2013, and can be extended by the Company for an additional one year at which point the 4% interest rate will increase to 10% per annum. The Forex Note may be prepaid without penalty. The Forex Note conversion price is the Variable Conversion Price, which is defined as 50% multiplied by the average of the lowest three trading prices of the Company's common stock on the OTCBB during the 10 day trading period ending on the latest complete day of trading on the OTCBB prior to the date of conversion. The Variable Conversion Price cannot be less than $0.002. At no time will Vulcan convert any amount of the Forex Note into common stock that would result in Vulcan owning more than 4.99% of the common stock outstanding of the Company.

9.      Income Taxes

The Company has accumulated net operating losses, which can be used to offset future earnings.  Accordingly, no provision for income taxes is recorded in the consolidated financial statements. A deferred tax asset for the future benefits of net operating losses and other differences is offset by a 100% valuation allowance due to the uncertainty of the Company’s ability to utilize the losses. These net operating losses will expire in the years 2029 through 2032.
 
The Company had net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $1,600,000 at December 31, 2012. These net operating loss carryforwards may be limited in accordance with Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, based on certain changes in ownership that have occurred and that could occur in the future.

13.      Per Share Information
 
Loss per share
 
Basic loss per share of common stock is computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding.  Diluted loss per share of common stock (“Diluted EPS”) is computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock and dilutive common stock equivalents and convertible securities then outstanding.  As of December 31, 2012 and 2011, there were 171,763,778 and 15,217,578, respectively, of potentially dilutive common stock equivalents outstanding.  The potentially dilutive common stock equivalents at December 31, 2012 arise from (i) the issuance on December 7, 2011 of 45,000 Series B Preferred Shares which are convertible into 15 million shares, (ii) the issuance of the Rasel note which is convertible into 234,630 shares, (iii) the issuance of 10,000 Series C Preferred Shares having a stated value of $100 per share which are convertible into 22,000,000 common shares, given recent market prices, and notwithstanding a restriction against owning more than 4.99% of the Company’s stock, and (iv) the issuance of a $500,000 convertible note payable to Vulcan, which is convertible into 134,529,148 shares, given recent market prices, and notwithstanding a restriction against owning more than 4.99% of the Company’s stock.  The 15,217,578 potentially dilutive common stock equivalents at December 31, 2011 arise from the issuance on December 7, 2011 of 45,000 Series B Preferred Shares convertible into 15 million shares and the issuance of the Rasel note convertible into 217,578 shares. The computation of Diluted EPS does not assume exercise or conversion of securities that would have an anti-dilutive effect on the net loss per common share.
