NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1- | ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION |
The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The condensed consolidated financial statements and notes are presented as permitted on Form 10-QSB and do not contain information included in the Company’s annual consolidated statements and notes. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, although the Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. It is suggested that these condensed consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the December 31, 2006 audited consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes thereto. While management believes the procedures followed in preparing these condensed consolidated financial statements are reasonable, the accuracy of the amounts are in some respects dependent upon the facts that will exist, and procedures that will be accomplished by the Company later in the year.
These condensed consolidated unaudited financial statements reflect all adjustments, including normal recurring adjustments which, in the opinion of management, are necessary to present fairly the consolidated operations and cash flows for the periods presented.
United American Corporation (the “Company”) was incorporated under the laws of the State of Florida on July 17, 1992 under the name American Financial Seminars, Inc. with authorized common stock of 1,000 shares at $1.00 par value. Since its inception the Company has made several name changes and increased the authorized common stock to 50,000,000 shares with a par value of $.001. On February 5, 2004, the name was changed to United American Corporation.
The Company was first organized for the purpose of marketing a software license known as “Gnotella”, however, in late 2001 this activity was abandoned.
On July 18, 2003, the Company entered into a share exchange agreement with 3874958 Canada Inc. (a Canadian corporation and an affiliate of the Company by common officers) to transfer 26,250,000 shares of its common stock for 100 shares of American United Corporation (a Delaware corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of 3874958 Canada Inc.) which represented 100% of the outstanding shares of American United Corporation. The Company in this transaction acquired internet telecommunications equipment valued at $874,125. These assets did not go into service until 2004. The 26,250,000 shares of the Company were issued into an escrow account on October 6, 2003, the effective date of the transaction. Later, American United Corporation was dissolved. The equipment value was based on an independent valuation. The shares issued were to 3874958 Canada Inc., whose sole owner at the time, was the President and CEO of the Company. This transaction did not constitute a reverse merger even though the Company issued in excess of 50% of its then current issued and outstanding shares.

NOTE 1- | ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION (CONTINUED) |
The transaction was viewed as a reorganization of equity under common control since the beneficial owner of the majority shares in the Company was the same before and after the transaction.
In January 2004, the Company took ownership of all 100 shares issued and outstanding of 3894517 Canada, Inc. (a Canadian corporation), whose 100% owner was at the time President and CEO of the Company. At this time, 3894517 Canada, Inc. became the operating unit of the Company for the services they were providing utilizing the equipment acquired in 2003 from American United Corporation. There was no consideration paid for these 100 shares.
In 2004, the Company entered the telecommunications business by the creation of United American Telecom, a division focused on terminating call traffic in the Caribbean, and by the creation of Teliphone, a former division focused on providing Voice-over-Internet –Protocol (VoIP) calling services to residential and business customers.
Teliphone, Inc. was founded on August 27, 2004 in order to develop a VoIP network which enables users to connect an electronic device to their internet connection at the home or office which permits them to make telephone calls to any destination phone number anywhere in the world. VoIP is currently growing in scale significantly in North America. Industry experts predict the VoIP offering to be one of the fastest growing sectors from now until 2009. This innovative new approach to telecommunications has the benefit of drastically reducing the cost of making these calls as the distances are covered over the Internet instead of over dedicated lines such as traditional telephony. Teliphone has grown primarily in the Province of Quebec, Canada through the sale of its product offering in retail stores and over the internet.
Related party transactions the Company has entered into are advances to the entities consolidated within 3894517 Canada, Inc. which is a wholly-owned subsidiary, all of which have been eliminated herein. Additionally, from time to time shareholders or entities under common control will advance amounts to the Company to assist in cash flow. These are all short-term amounts and interest bearing at rates ranging between 10-20%.

NOTE 1- | ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION (CONTINUED) |
On October 23, 2006, the Company’s shareholders voted in the majority to spin-off its entire holdings of 25,737,785 shares of the common stock of Teliphone Corp. with an effective date of October 30, 2006. In accordance with APB 29, “Accounting for Nomonetary Transactions”, the Company distributed the capital stock they owned in Teliphone Corp. to their stockholders (a “spin-off”). As a result, the Company recognized the value of the assets and liabilities spun-out based on the respective recorded amounts after reduction for any impairment of value due to the fact that this was a nonreciprocal transfer to owners. (See Note 10).
Subsequently on July 1, 2007, the Company dissolved its wholly-owned subsidiary 3894517 Canada Inc. as it was no longer required for the Company to effectuate its normal day-to-day operations. (See Note 12- Subsequent Events)
Going Concern
As shown in the accompanying consolidated financial statements the Company has started to show net profits ($466,985 for the nine months ended September 30, 2007), but prior to this time, the Company had incurred significant net losses, and accumulated a deficit of $5,287,392 through September 30, 2007 and has a working capital deficiency of $670,948 as of September 30, 2007.
Despite, the prior recurring losses, the Company has been successful in establishing distribution channels in Africa and generating significant revenue growth in the past six months. There is no guarantee that the Company will be able to continue to grow at this pace, raise enough capital or generate revenues from other areas of the world to sustain its operations. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period.
Management believes that the Company’s capital requirements will depend on many factors. These factors include the increase in sales through existing channels as well as the Company’s ability to continue to expand its customer base in the international telecommunications market.
In the near term, the Company does not require additional financing to continue its operations as it has achieved a profitable level of operations. The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period is dependent upon management’s ability to continue to achieve profitable operations. There can be no assurance that management will be able to continue operations at a profitable level and hence, the Company would have to raise sufficient capital, under terms satisfactory to the Company, if at all.

Going Concern (Continued)
The condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the carrying amounts of recorded assets or the carrying amounts and classification of recorded liabilities that may be required should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
NOTE 2- | SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
Principles of Consolidation
The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and all of its wholly owned and majority owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. All minority interests are reflected in the condensed consolidated financial statements.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. On an on-going basis, the Company evaluates its estimates, including, but not limited to, those related to bad debts, income taxes, foreign currency risks, derivative liabilities and contingencies. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments and other short-term investments with an initial maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

SEPTEMBER 30, 2007 AND 2006 (UNAUDITED)
NOTE 2- | SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) | |
Comprehensive Income
The Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No, 130, “Reporting Comprehensive Income,” (SFAS No. 130). SFAS No. 130 requires the reporting of comprehensive income in addition to net income from operations.
Comprehensive income is a more inclusive financial reporting methodology that includes disclosure of information that historically has not been recognized in the calculation of net income.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments (other than Derivative Financial Instruments)
The carrying amounts reported in the condensed consolidated balance sheet for cash and cash equivalents, and accounts payable approximate fair value because of the immediate or short-term maturity of these financial instruments. For the notes payable, the carrying amount reported is based upon the incremental borrowing rates otherwise available to the Company for similar borrowings. For the convertible debentures, fair values were calculated at net present value using the Company’s weighted average borrowing rate for debt instruments without conversion features applied to total future cash flows of the instruments.
Currency Translation
For subsidiaries outside the United States that prepare financial statements in currencies other than the U.S. dollar, the Company translates income and expense amounts at average exchange rates for the year, translates assets and liabilities at year-end exchange rates and equity at historical rates. The Company’s reporting currency is that of the US dollar while its functional currency is that of the Canadian dollar for its subsidiaries. The Company records these translation adjustments as accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). Gains and losses from foreign currency transactions commenced in 2004 when the Company utilized a Canadian subsidiary to record all of the transactions. The Company recognized a loss of $20,896 and $45,692 for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively.
Revenue Recognition
In 2004, when the Company emerged from the development stage with the acquisition of American United Corporation/ 3874958 Canada Inc. and after assuming ownership of 3894517 Canada Inc. they began to recognize revenue from their VoIP services when the services were rendered and collection was reasonably assured in accordance with SAB 101.

SEPTEMBER 30, 2007 AND 2006 (UNAUDITED)
NOTE 2- | SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES(CONTINUED) | |
Revenue Recognition (Continued)
There are limited estimates required in connection with recognition of revenue because voice traffic is measured in automated switches and routers, and contractual rates for traffic are used to bill or declare revenue on a monthly basis. However, for certain voice contracts, historical traffic may be retroactively re-rated within a contract period. This traffic re-rating is calculated and recognized immediately in the month the new contractual rate is established. Although relatively infrequent, there can be material disputes with customers over volume or traffic recognized on our customers’ switches. The Company’s practice is to maintain recorded revenue based on our traffic data until the merits of a dispute are identified.
Accounts Receivable
The Company conducts business and extends credit based on an evaluation of the customers’ financial condition, generally without requiring collateral. Exposure to losses on receivables is expected to vary by customer due to the financial condition of each customer. The Company monitors exposure to credit losses and maintains allowances for anticipated losses considered necessary under the circumstances.
Accounts receivable are generally due within 30 days and collateral is not required. Unbilled accounts receivable represents amounts due from customers for which billing statements have not been generated and sent to the customers. The Company has not established an allowance for doubtful accounts as of September 30, 2007.
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes utilizing the liability method of accounting. Under the liability method, deferred taxes are determined based on differences between financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities at enacted tax rates in effect in years in which differences are expected to reverse. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to amounts that are expected to be realized.
Convertible Instruments
The Company reviews the terms of convertible debt and equity securities for indications requiring bifurcation, and separate accounting, for the embedded conversion feature. Generally, embedded conversion features where the ability to physical or net-share settle the conversion option is not within the control of the Company are bifurcated and accounted for as a derivative financial instrument. (See Derivative Financial Instruments below). Bifurcation of the embedded derivative instrument requires allocation of the proceeds first to the fair value of the embedded derivative instrument with the residual allocated to the debt instrument. The resulting discount to the face value of the debt instrument is amortized through periodic charges to interest expense using the Effective Interest Method.

NOTE 2- | SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES(CONTINUED) | |
Derivative Financial Instruments
The Company generally does not use derivative financial instruments to hedge exposures to cash-flow or market risks. However, certain other financial instruments, such as warrants or options to acquire common stock and the embedded conversion features of debt and preferred instruments that are indexed to the Company’s common stock, are classified as liabilities when either (a) the holder possesses rights to net-cash settlement or (b) physical or net share settlement is not within the control of the Company. In such instances, net-cash settlement is assumed for financial accounting and reporting, even when the terms of the underlying contracts do not provide for net-cash settlement. Such financial instruments are initially recorded at fair value and subsequently adjusted to fair value at the close of each reporting period.
Advertising Costs
The Company expenses the costs associated with advertising as incurred. Advertising expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 and 2006 are included in general and administrative expenses in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.
Concentration Risk
In the nine months ended September 30, 2007 and 2006, the Company generated 97% and 98% of their sales from one customer. A major customer is a customer that represents greater than 10% of the total sales.
In the nine months ended September 30, 2007 and 2006, the Company incurred 96% and 64% of their purchases from two vendors and one vendor, respectively. A major vendor is a vendor that represents greater than 10% of the total purchases.
Fixed assets are stated at cost. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets; automobiles – 3 years, computer and internet telecommunications equipment – 5 years, and furniture and fixtures – 5 years.
When assets are retired or otherwise disposed of, the costs and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts, and any resulting gain or loss is recognized in income for the period. The cost of maintenance and repairs is charged to income as incurred; significant renewals and betterments are capitalized. Deduction is made for retirements resulting from renewals or betterments.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
Long-lived assets, primarily fixed assets, are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets might not be recoverable. The Company does not perform a periodic assessment of assets for impairment in the absence of such information or indicators. Conditions that would necessitate an impairment assessment include a significant decline in the observable market value of an asset, a significant change in the extent or manner in which an asset is used, or a significant adverse change that would indicate that the carrying amount of an asset or group of assets is not recoverable. For long-lived assets to be held and used, the Company recognizes an impairment loss only if its carrying amount is not recoverable through its undiscounted cash flows and measures the impairment loss based on the difference between the carrying amount and estimated fair value. The Company, determined based upon an independent valuation performed on its equipment acquired from American United Corporation that there was impairment of $1,750,875 (on October 6, 2003) based upon the fair value of the stock issued for the equipment. This amount is reflected as impairment in the December 31, 2003 financial statements. There has been no further impairment since this date.
| Earnings (Loss) Per Share of Common Stock |
Basic net earnings (loss) per common share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per share (EPS) includes additional dilution from common stock equivalents, such as stock issuable pursuant to the exercise of stock options and warrants as well as from convertible debentures. Common stock equivalents were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share when the Company reported a loss because to do so would be antidilutive for the period presented.
The following is a reconciliation of the computation for basic and diluted EPS:

Stock-Based Compensation
On December 16, 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) published Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 (Revised 2004), “Share-Based Payment” (“SFAS 123R”). SFAS 123R requires that compensation cost related to share-based payment transactions be recognized in the financial statements. Share-based payment transactions within the scope of SFAS 123R include stock options, restricted stock plans, performance-based awards, stock appreciation rights, and employee share purchase plans. The provisions of SFAS 123R, as amended, are effective for small business issuers beginning as of the next fiscal year after December 15, 2005. The Company has adopted the provisions of SFAS 123R for its fiscal year ended December 31, 2006. The adoption of this principle had no effect on the Company’s operations.
On January 1, 2006, the Company adopted the provisions of FAS No. 123R “Share-Based Payment” (“FAS 123R”) which requires recognition of stock-based compensation expense for all share-based payments based on fair value. Prior to January 1, 2006, the Company measured compensation expense for all of its share-based compensation using the intrinsic value method prescribed by Accounting Principles Board (“APB”) Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees” (“APB 25”) and related interpretations. The Company has provided pro forma disclosure amounts in accordance with FAS No. 148, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation – Transition and Disclosure – an amendment of FASB Statement No. 123” (“FAS 148”), as if the fair value method defined by FAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock Based Compensation” (“FAS 123”) had been applied to its stock-based compensation.
The Company has elected to use the modified–prospective approach method. Under that transition method, the calculated expense in 2006 is equivalent to compensation expense for all awards granted prior to, but not yet vested as of January 1, 2006, based on the grant-date fair values estimated in accordance with the original provisions of FAS 123. Stock-based compensation expense for all awards granted after January 1, 2006 is based on the grant-date fair values estimated in accordance with the provisions of FAS 123R. The Company recognizes these compensation costs, net of an estimated forfeiture rate, on a pro rata basis over the requisite service period of each vesting tranche of each award. The Company considers voluntary termination behavior as well as trends of actual option forfeitures when estimating the forfeiture rate.
The Company measures compensation expense for its non-employee stock-based compensation under the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) Issue No. 96-18, “Accounting for Equity Instruments that are Issued to Other Than Employees for Acquiring, or in Conjunction with Selling, Goods or Services”. The fair value of the option issued is used to measure the transaction, as this is more reliable than the fair value of the services received. The fair value is measured at the value of the Company’s common stock on the date that the commitment for performance by the counterparty has been reached or the counterparty’s performance is complete. The fair value of the equity instrument is charged directly to compensation expense and additional paid-in capital.

Segment Information
The Company follows the provisions of SFAS No. 131, “Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information”. This standard requires that companies disclose operating segments based on the manner in which management disaggregates the Company in making internal operating decisions. Commencing with the creation of Teliphone, Inc. the Company began operating in two segments, and three geographical locations.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In May 2005, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 154, “Accounting Changes and Error Corrections” (“SFAS 154”). SFAS 154 is a replacement of APB No. 20, “Accounting Changes”, and SFAS No. 3, “Reporting Accounting Changes in Interim Financial Statements”. SFAS 154 applies to all voluntary changes in accounting principle and changes the requirements for accounting and reporting of a change in accounting principle. This statement establishes that, unless impracticable, retrospective application is the required method for reporting of a change in accounting principle in the absence of explicit transition requirements specific to the newly adopted accounting principle. It also requires the reporting of an error correction which involves adjustments to previously issued financial statements similar to those generally applicable to reporting an accounting change retrospectively. SFAS 154 is effective for accounting changes and corrections of errors made in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2005. The adoption of SFAS 154 has not had a material impact on its condensed consolidated financial statements.
In February 2006, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 155, “Accounting for Certain Hybrid Instruments” (“SFAS 155”). FASB 155 allows financial instruments that have embedded derivatives to be accounted for as a whole (eliminating the need to bifurcate the derivative from its host) if the holder elects to account for the whole instrument on a fair value basis. This statement is effective for all financial instruments acquired or issued after the beginning of an entity’s first fiscal year that begins after September 15, 2006. The adoption of SFAS 155 has not had a material impact on its condensed consolidated financial statements.
In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS 157, “Fair Value Measurements.” This standard defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles, and expands disclosure about fair value measurements. This statement is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. Early adoption is encouraged. The adoption of SFAS 157 has not had a material impact on its condensed consolidated financial statements.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements (Continued)
In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS 158, “Employers’ Accounting for Defined Benefit Pension and Other Postretirement Plans, an amendment of FASB Statements 87, 88, 106 and 132(R)” (“SFAS 158”). SFAS 158 requires an employer to recognize the over-funded or under-funded status of a defined benefit postretirement plan (other than a multiemployer plan) as an asset or liability in its statement of financial position and to recognize changes in that funded status in the year in which the changes occur through comprehensive income. SFAS 158 also requires the measurement of defined benefit plan assets and obligations as of the date of the employer’s fiscal year-end statement of financial position (with limited exceptions). The adoption of SFAS 158 has not had a material impact on its condensed consolidated financial statements.
In February 2007, the FASB issued FAS No. 159, “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities – Including an amendment of FASB Statement No. 115”, (“FAS 159”) which permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value at specified election dates. A business entity is required to report unrealized gains and losses on items for which the fair value option has been elected in earnings at each subsequent reporting date. This statement is expected to expand the use of fair value measurement. FAS 159 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The adoption of SFAS 159 has not had a material impact on its condensed consolidated financial statements.
In July 2006, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 48 (FIN No. 48), “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes.” This interpretation requires recognition and measurement of uncertain income tax positions using a “more-likely-than-not” approach. FIN No. 48 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. The adoption of FIN No. 48 has not had a material impact on its condensed consolidated financial statements.
In September 2006, the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) issued SAB 108, “Considering the Effects of Prior Year Misstatements when Quantifying Misstatements in Current Year Financial Statements.”
This SAB provides guidance on the consideration of the effects of prior year misstatements in quantifying current year misstatements for the purpose of a materiality assessment. SAB 108 establishes an approach that requires quantification of financial statement errors based on the effects of each of the company’s financial statements and the related financial statement disclosures. SAB 108 permits existing public companies to record the cumulative effect of initially applying this approach in the first year ending after November 15, 2006 by recording the necessary correcting adjustments to the carrying values of assets and liabilities as of the beginning of that year with the offsetting adjustment recorded to the opening balance of retained earnings. Additionally, the use of the cumulative effect transition method requires detailed disclosure of the nature and amount of each individual error being corrected through the cumulative adjustment and how and when it arose. The adoption of SAB 108 has not had a material impact on its condensed consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 5- | CONVERTIBLE DEBENTURES |
On October 18, 2004, the Company entered into 12% Convertible Debentures (the “Debentures”) with Strathmere Associates International Limited (“Strathmere”) in the amount of $100,000. The Debentures had a maturity date of October 18, 2006, and incurred interest at a rate of 12% per annum, payable every six months.
On November 14, 2006, the Company and Strathmere agreed to extend the maturity date to October 31, 2007, while maintaining the same interest rate of 12% per annum, payable every month.
Subsequently on October 30, 2007, the Company and Strathmere agreed to extend the maturity date to October 31, 2008, while maintaining the same interest rate of 12% per annum, payable every month.
The Debentures can either be paid to the holders on October 31, 2008 or converted at the holders’ option any time up to maturity at a conversion price equal of $0.055 per share (the original conversion rate was $.20 per share). The convertible debentures met the definition of hybrid instruments, as defined in SFAS 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities (SFAS No. 133). The hybrid instruments are comprised of a i) a debt instrument, as the host contract and ii) an option to convert the debentures into common stock of the Company, as an embedded derivative. The embedded derivative derives its value based on the underlying fair value of the Company’s common stock. The Embedded Derivative is not clearly and closely related to the underlying host debt instrument since the economic characteristics and risk associated with this derivative are based on the common stock fair value. The Company has separated the embedded derivative from the hybrid instrument based on an independent valuation.
For disclosure purposes, the fair value of the derivative is estimated on the date of issuance of the debenture (October 18, 2004), with the following weighted-average assumptions used for September 30, 2007 and 2006; no annual dividends, volatility of 125%, risk-free interest rate of 3.28%, and expected life of 1 year. For disclosure purposes as of September 30, 2007 the derivative call option was approximately $0.0132 per share.
The embedded derivative did not qualify as a fair value or cash flow hedge under SFAS No. 133.
Interest expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 and 2006 was approximately $9,000 for each period. At September 30, 2007, there was no interest accrued.
