SIBLING ENTERTAINMENT GROUP HOLDINGS, INC.
(A Development Stage Company)
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
MARCH 31, 2010
(Unaudited)
Note 1 - Nature of Operations and Basis of Presentation
(a) Organization
Sibling Entertainment Group Holdings, Inc., referenced as the “Company,” “we,” “our,” and “us” was incorporated under the laws of the State of Texas on December 28, 1988, as “Houston Produce Corporation”. The Houston Produce Corporation was formed for the purpose of importing fruit and vegetables from Latin America for sale in the United States. The Company’s plan to import fruit and vegetables was subsequently abandoned. On June 24, 1997, the Company changed its name to “Net Masters Consultants, Inc.” as part of a plan to become a global internet service provider. The internet business plans were discarded in October of 1999. On November 27, 2002, the Company changed its name to “Sona Development Corporation” in an effort to restructure the business image to attract prospective business opportunities. Our name changed on May 14, 2007 to “Sibling Entertainment Group Holdings, Inc.”, in New York City. The Company is considered a development stage company in accordance with ASC 915, “Development Stage Entities”.
Our business plan called for focusing on large group sales of tickets to New York based entertainment shows, mostly Broadway plays. We intended to create a full-featured Internet website and registered the domain name Stageseats.com on May 14, 2009. We hired an existing industry expert to head the entity and to execute the business plan. We started booking tickets in April 2009 and continued until November 27, 2009 when we closed the business due to our manager abruptly resigning and lack of funding to continue the business. In September 2009, the executives of SIBE discussed several different methods of obtaining intellectual property from which to launch the next Broadway play. In the fourth quarter of 2009, the Company continued to engage in additional capital efforts. The strategic direction of the Company significantly changed in 2010 (see Note 12 – Subsequent Events)

The Company has not generated any revenues or completed development of any commercially acceptable products or services to date, and has incurred losses of $4,816,212 since inception, and further significant losses are expected to be incurred during the Company’s development stage. The Company will depend almost exclusively on outside capital through the issuance of common shares, debentures, and other loans, and advances from related parties to finance ongoing operating losses. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on raising additional capital and ultimately on generating future profitable operations. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to raise the necessary funds when needed to finance its ongoing costs. On March 31, 2010 the Company had $2,555,000 of principal due on the Series AA debentures and approximately $818,000 of accrued interest. These factors raise substantial doubt about the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern.
The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments relative to the recoverability and classification of asset carrying amounts or the amount and classification of liabilities that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
(a) Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“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 revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
(b) Income Taxes
The Company utilizes Financial Accounting Standards Board Codification (‘ASC”), ASC 740, “Accounting for Income Taxes”, which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements or tax returns. Under this method, deferred income taxes are recognized for the estimated tax consequences in future years of differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities, and their financial reporting amounts at each period end based on enacted tax laws and statutory tax rates applicable to the period in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income.
(c) Financial Instruments
In accordance with the requirements of ASC 825, “Financial Instruments, Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments,” the Company has determined the estimated fair value of financial instruments using available market information and appropriate valuation methodologies. The carrying values of cash, accounts payable, and amounts due to related parties approximate fair values due to the short-term maturity of the instruments.
(d) Stock-Based Compensation
The Company accounts for stock-based compensation in accordance ASC 715, “Compensation - Retirement Benefits, Share-Based Payment”. Under the provisions of ASC 715, stock-based compensation cost is estimated at the grant date based on the award’s fair value as calculated by the Black-Scholes-Merton (BSM) option-pricing model and/or market price of conversion shares, and is recognized as expense over the requisite service period. The BSM model requires various highly judgmental assumptions including volatility and expected option life. If any of the assumptions used in the BSM model change significantly, stock-based compensation expense may differ materially in the future from that recorded in the current period. In addition, the Company is required to estimate the expected forfeiture rate and only recognize expense for those shares expected to vest. The Company estimates the forfeiture rate based on historical experience. Further, if the extent of the Company’s actual forfeiture rate is different from the estimate, then the stock-based compensation expense is adjusted accordingly.
The Company accounts for equity instruments issued in exchange for the receipt of goods or services from other than employees in accordance with ASC 718, “Stock Compensation” and ASC 505-50 “Equity Based Payments to Non-Employees.
Costs are measured at the estimated fair market value of the consideration received, or the estimated fair value of the equity instruments issued, whichever is more reliably measurable. The value of equity instruments issued for consideration other than employee services is determined on the earliest of a performance commitment or completion of performance by the provider of goods or services as defined by ASC 505-50.

Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
(e) Loss per Share
The Company computes loss per share in accordance with ASC 260, “Earnings Per Share”, which requires presentation of both basic and diluted earnings per share on the face of the statement of operations. Basic loss per share is computed by dividing net loss available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of outstanding common shares during the period. Diluted loss per share gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period including stock options and warrants using the treasury method, and preferred stock using the if-converted method. Dilutive loss per share excludes all potential common shares if their effect is anti-dilutive.
(f) Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures ASC 820, Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements: In January 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued accounting guidance intended to improve disclosures related to fair value measurements. This guidance requires significant transfers in and out of Level 1 and Level 2 fair value measurements to be disclosed separately along with the reasons for the transfers. Additionally, in the reconciliation for the fair value measurements using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3), information about purchases, sales, issuances and settlements must be presented separately (cannot net as one number). This guidance also provides clarification for existing disclosures on (i) level of disaggregation and (ii) inputs and valuation techniques. In addition, this guidance includes conforming amendments for employers’ disclosure of postretirement benefit plan assets. This guidance was effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2009, except for the disclosures about purchases, sales, issuances and settlements in the rollforward of activity in Level 3 fair value measurements. Those disclosures are required for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010, and for interim periods within those fiscal years. The adoption of ASC 820 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated results of operations or financial position.
In December 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2010-29, Business Combinations (Topic 805) - Disclosure of Supplementary Pro Forma Information for Business Combinations. This ASU requires a public entity to disclose pro forma information for business combinations that occurred in the current reporting period. The disclosures include pro forma revenue and earnings of the combined entity for the current reporting period as though the acquisition date for all business combinations that occurred during the year had been as of the beginning of the annual reporting period. If comparative financial statements are presented, the pro forma revenue and earnings of the combined entity for the comparable prior reporting period should be reported as though the acquisition date for all business combinations that occurred during the current year had been as of the beginning of the comparable prior annual reporting period. ASU 2010-29 affects any public entity as defined by Topic 805 that enters into business combinations that are material on an individual or aggregate basis. ASU 2010-29 is effective prospectively for business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after the beginning of the first annual reporting period beginning on or after December 15, 2010. Early adoption is permitted. The Company does not expect the provisions of ASU 2010-29 to have an effect on its financial position, results of operations or cash flows. We have determined that all other recently issued accounting standards will not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements, or do not apply to our operations.

Note 4 - Short-Term Notes Payable (continued)
As of March 31, 2010, the Company was in default on the debentures noted above. The interest rate upon default was increased to fifteen percent (15%) and the accrued balance due for interest as of March 31, 2010 was $782,366.

Note 5 - Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes under FASB ASC 740 –. Under ASC 740 deferred taxes are provided on a liability method whereby deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences and operating loss carryforwards and deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences. Temporary differences are the differences between the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax bases. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment. ASC 740 also requires that uncertain tax positions are evaluated in a two-step process, whereby (1) it is determined whether it is more likely than not that the tax positions will be sustained based on the technical merits of the position and (2) for those tax positions that meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold, the largest amount of tax benefit that is greater than fifty percent likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement with the related tax authority would be recognized.
The Company had net operating loss carryforwards available to offset future taxable income approximating $4.8 million as of March 31, 2010. The Company has determined that realization of a deferred tax asset that has resulted from the net operating losses is not likely and therefore a full valuation allowance has been recorded against this deferred income tax asset. There are no other material deferred tax positions recorded by the Company.
Note 6 - Capital Stock

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Results of Operations
For the three months ended March 31, 2010, the Company’s operations were limited to satisfying continuous public disclosure requirements, seeking our alternative business opportunities, and entering into an agreement with Sibling Entertainment Group, Inc. The Company has not generated revenues since inception and due to the nature of our search for a suitable business opportunity, cannot determine whether we will ever generate revenue from operations and may continue at a loss. Lack of material result ended with a change in strategic direction in 2010. See Subsequent Events.
Net Loss
For the period from inception to March 31, 2010, the Company recorded a net loss of $4,816,212. The Company’s net loss is primarily attributable to general and administrative expenses and the write down of promissory notes. The general and administrative expenses include incorporation costs, offering costs, accounting costs, and costs associated with the preparation of disclosure documentation in connection with registration pursuant to the Exchange Act of 1934. We expect to continue to operate at a loss through fiscal 2010 and cannot determine whether we will ever generate revenues from operations.
Capital Expenditures
The Company expended no amounts on capital expenditures for the period from December 28, 1988 (inception) to March 31, 2010.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company is in the development stage and, since inception, has experienced significant changes in liquidity, capital resources and shareholders’ equity. The Company had current and total assets of $148,945 and $3,486,312 respectively as of March 31, 2010. The working capital deficit at March 31, 2010 was $3,482,561. Net stockholders equity in the Company was $ (145,194) at March 31, 2010.
The Company borrowed an aggregate of $51,450 as of March 31, 2010 from Sibling Entertainment Group, Inc. (“SEGI”) on several convertible promissory notes. The convertible promissory notes, as amended, bore interest of 10% per annum payable upon demand.
With the abandonment of the plan for acquisition of Sibling Entertainment Group, Inc. in June, 2009, the Company was faced with the need to obtain loans from shareholders or pursue alternative private equity placements in order to

maintain its continuous disclosure requirements until such time as an alternative acquisition or merger candidate is identified. The Company took steps in the fourth quarter 2009 and throughout the first quarter fiscal 2010 to actively pursue alternative business opportunities with the assistance of outside consultants.
In the fourth quarter of 2009 and in the first quarter of 2010, the Company sold 3,930,000 shares at a price of $0.05 per share or $196,500 in the aggregate to six accredited investors. These shares were sold pursuant to our “Series BB” private placement of up to 9,000,000 shares, or for an aggregate offering price of $450,000. For every two shares purchased under the “Series BB” private placement, one warrant is to be issued for the purchase of one additional share at a price of $0.20 per share, and one warrant is to be issued for the purchase of one additional share at a price of $0.50 per share.

Critical Accounting Policies
In Note 2 to the attached interim financial statements for the periods ended March 31, 2010 and 2009 included in this Form 10-Q, we discuss those accounting policies that are considered significant in determining the results of operations and our financial position. We believe that the accounting principles utilized by us conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
a) Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with United States generally accepted accounting principles 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 revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
(b) Income Taxes
The Company follows the liability method of accounting for income taxes. Under this method, deferred income tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying values and their respective income tax basis (temporary differences). The effect on deferred income tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.
(c) Financial Instruments
In accordance with the requirements of Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 825, “Financial Instruments,” the Company has determined the estimated fair value of financial instruments using available market information and appropriate valuation methodologies. The carrying values of cash, promissory notes, accounts payable and amounts due to related parties approximate fair values due to the short-term maturity of the instruments.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)
Critical Accounting Policies (continued)
In June 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued the Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 105 (formerly issued as Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 168, The FASB Accounting Standards Codification and the Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”) — a replacement of FASB SFAS No. 162), as the single source of authoritative non-governmental U.S. GAAP launched on July 1, 2009. The ASC does not change current U.S. GAAP, but is intended to simplify user access to all authoritative U.S. GAAP by providing all the authoritative literature related to a particular topic in one place. All existing accounting standard documents will be superseded and all other accounting literature not included in the ASC will be considered non-authoritative. The ASC is effective for interim and annual periods ending after September 15, 2009. The ASC is for disclosure only and will not impact our financial condition or results of operations. The Company has adopted this pronouncement effective as of March 31, 2010. The adoption of this ASC had no impact on our financial reporting process.
On January 1, 2009, the Company adopted ASC Subtopic 815-10 (formerly SFAS No. 161, “Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities” — an amendment of FASB Statement No. 133), which provides revised guidance for enhanced disclosures about how and why an entity uses derivative instruments, how derivative instruments and the related hedged items are accounted for under ASC Topic 815, and how derivative instruments and the related hedged items affect an entity’s financial position, financial performance and cash flows. Since the Company currently does not have any derivative instruments, there are no additional disclosures required.
In April 2009, the FASB issued ASC 825, "Interim Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments." ASC 825 essentially expands the disclosure about fair value of financial instruments that were previously required only annually to also be required for interim period reporting. In addition, the ASC requires certain additional disclosures regarding the methods and significant assumptions used to estimate the fair value of financial instruments.
Effect of Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures ASC 820, Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements: In January 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued accounting guidance intended to improve disclosures related to fair value measurements. This guidance requires significant transfers in and out of Level 1 and Level 2 fair value measurements to be disclosed separately along with the reasons for the transfers. Additionally, in the reconciliation for the fair value measurements using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3), information about purchases, sales, issuances and settlements must be presented separately (cannot net as one number). This guidance also provides clarification for existing disclosures on (i) level of disaggregation and (ii) inputs and valuation techniques. In addition, this guidance includes conforming amendments for employers’ disclosure of postretirement benefit plan assets. This guidance was effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2009, except for the disclosures about purchases, sales, issuances and settlements in the rollforward of activity in Level 3 fair value measurements. Those disclosures are required for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010, and for interim periods within those fiscal years. The adoption of ASC 820 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated results of operations or financial position.
In December 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2010-29, Business Combinations (Topic 805) - Disclosure of Supplementary Pro Forma Information for Business Combinations. This ASU requires a public entity to disclose pro forma information for business combinations that occurred in the current reporting period. The disclosures include pro forma revenue and earnings of the combined entity for the current reporting period as though the acquisition date for all business combinations that occurred during the year had been as of the beginning of the annual reporting period. If comparative financial statements are presented, the pro forma revenue and earnings of the combined entity for the comparable prior reporting period should be reported as though the acquisition date for all business combinations that occurred during the current year had been as of the beginning of the comparable prior annual reporting period. ASU 2010-29 affects any public entity as defined by Topic 805 that enters into business combinations that are material on an individual or
20
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)
aggregate basis. ASU 2010-29 is effective prospectively for business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after the beginning of the first annual reporting period beginning on or after December 15, 2010. Early adoption is permitted. The Company does not expect the provisions of ASU 2010-29 to have an effect on its financial position, results of operations or cash flows. We have determined that all other recently issued accounting standards will not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements, or do not apply to our operations.
Going Concern
The Company has not generated any revenues or completed development of any commercially acceptable products or services to date, has a working capital deficiency of $3,482,561 at March 31, 2010 and has incurred losses of $4,816,212 since inception, and further significant losses are expected to be incurred in the Company’s development stage. The Company will depend almost exclusively on outside capital through the issuance of common shares, and advances from related parties to finance ongoing operating losses. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on raising additional capital and ultimately on generating future profitable operations. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to raise the necessary funds when needed to finance its ongoing costs. These factors raise substantial doubt about the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments relative to the recoverability and classification of asset carrying amounts or the amount and classification of liabilities that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
The Company is subject to certain market risks, including changes in interest rates and currency exchange rates. The Company does not undertake any specific actions to limit those exposures.
ITEM 4T. EVALUATION OF DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
a) Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures
Management of the Company is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act. The Company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external reporting purposes in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the Company; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the Company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the Company; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the Company’s assets that could have a material effect on the interim or annual 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 policies or procedures may deteriorate.
The Company’s management did not assess the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2009 in accordance with a recognized framework, due to its lack of resources. However, we have identified what we believe to be material weaknesses.
21
ITEM 4T. EVALUATION OF DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES (CONTINUED)
a) Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures (continued)
A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the Company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.
The material weaknesses identified were (i) lack of segregation of duties, (ii) lack of sufficient resources with SEC, generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) and tax accounting expertise; and (iii) inadequate security over information technology. These control deficiencies resulted in audit adjustments to the Company’s 2008 annual
financial statements. Accordingly, management has determined that these control deficiencies constitute material weaknesses.
Because of these material weaknesses, management concluded that the Company did not maintain effective internal control over financial reporting as of March 31, 2010. This report does not include an attestation report of our registered public accounting firm regarding our internal controls over financial reporting. The disclosure contained under this Item 8A was not subject to attestation by our registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the SEC that permit us to provide only the disclosure under this Item 8A in this annual report.
The auditors did not test the effectiveness of nor relied on the internal controls of the Company for the fiscal quarters ended March 31, 2010 and 2009.
The Company is in the process of correcting the internal control deficiencies through ongoing remediation efforts. However, these efforts individually and in the aggregate may not be sufficient to fully eliminate the weakness that have materially affected, or were reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
As reported in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009, based upon an evaluation of the effectiveness of disclosure controls and procedures, the Company has determined that there are material weaknesses in our disclosure controls and procedures. It should be noted that the design of any system of controls is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions, regardless of how remote.
(b) Changes in internal controls over financial reporting
During the three months ended March 31, 2010, we continued our comprehensive evaluation relating to the effectiveness of disclosure controls and procedures. As a result of such review, we have implemented several changes, among which included:
§ We have started the documentation of formal policies and procedures necessary to adequately review significant accounting transactions § We have more specifically defined existing key controls, and developed additional controls, applicable to the review of significant accounting transactions and the accounting treatment of such transactions § We have implemented a formal audit committee with a financial expert, and the Company now has the board oversight role within the financial reporting process |

(b) Changes in internal controls over financial reporting (continued) | |||
§ We have enhanced the documentation regarding conclusions reached in the implementation of generally accepted accounting principles § We have added additional levels of review by qualified personnel of the application of each key control | |||
Based on the foregoing efforts, we believe that the material weaknesses as reported will eventually be fully remediated.
During the three months ended March 31, 2010, there were no other changes in our internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS
In the first quarter of 2010, the Company sold 3,040,000 shares at a price of $0.05 per share or $152,000 in the aggregate to seven accredited investors. These shares were sold pursuant to our “Series BB” private placement of up to 9,000,000 shares, or for an aggregate offering price of $450,000. For every two shares purchased under the “Series BB” private placement, one warrant is to be issued for the purchase of one additional share at a price of $0.20 per share, and one warrant is to be issued for the purchase of one additional share at a price of $0.50 per share. Accordingly, these six investors may acquire up to an additional 3,930,000 shares. We believe that the offer and sale of the foregoing units were exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933 by virtue of Sections 4(2) and 4(6) thereof and Regulation D as promulgated hereunder. The securities were offered and sold only to persons believed by us to be, and who represented to us in writing that they are accredited investors as defined in Regulation D.
EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION
The securities issued in the private placement financing transaction were issued without registration with the Commission, pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and/or Rule 506 of Regulation D promulgated thereunder. The securities are offered and sold only to accredited investors as defined in Regulation D. This exemption applies because the Company did not make any public offer to sell any securities, but rather, the Company only offered securities to persons known to the Company to be accredited investors and only sold securities to persons who represented to the Company in writing that they are accredited investors.
ITEM 3. DEFAULTS ON SENIOR SECURITIES
During the period of May through August of 2007, the Company borrowed $2,555,000 from various individuals payable on June 1, 2008 (the “Original Maturity Date”) at an annual interest rate of 13% (the “Series AA Note(s)”). The Notes shall be extended an additional year; and bear interest at a rate of 15% per annum and payable quarterly. As of March 31, 2010, $782,366 of accrued interest is currently past due.
On June 26, 2009, the Company offered Series AA Note(s) debenture holders that in exchange for the continued deferral of all outstanding principal and current unpaid accrued interest at the rate of 15% for an additional one year until June 1, 2010. In addition, the Company would agree to the following:
1. Reduce of the purchase price of each AA-1 Warrants from $1.00 to $0.50 per share; and
2. Reduce of the purchase price of each AA-2 Warrants from $2.50 to $1.25 per share.
As of August 19, 2009, the Company has received and granted extensions in the amount of $455,000, plus accrued interest of approximately $97,897.
On August 11, 2009, the Company received a Default and Demand for Payment equal to $175,000 in principal and accrued interest of approximately $49,019.
ITEM 4. (REMOVED AND RESERVED)

ITEM 5. OTHER INFORMATION
In addition, on August 1, 2009 offered three (3) executive compensation agreements with its principal officers Mitchell Maxwell as its President and Chief Executive Officer; James Cardwell as its Chief Operating Officer and Chief Financial Officer; and Richard Bernstein as its Vice President reserving up to six million (6,000,000) shares and signing bonuses effective August 1, 2009 at an expense of $150,000 based upon a price at the time of issue of $0.025/share including the following initial estimated annual compensation and bonus share allocation:
Mitchell Maxwell – President / CEO | $250,000 annually, and 3,500,000 shares |
James Cardwell – COO / CFO | $175,000 annually, and 1,500,000 shares |
Richard Bernstein – Vice President | $125,000 annually, and 1,000,000 shares |
Shares were subsequently issued in accord with these agreements, however, no salary or cash payment was made to officers and directors under these agreements.
