REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
TO THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS AND STOCKHOLDERS OF
GIRASOLAR B.V.
I have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of GiraSolar B.V. (Deventer, the Netherlands) as of September 30, 2005 and 2004, and the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive income, stockholders' deficit and cash flows for the year ended September 30, 2005 and the period from November 25, 2003 (date of inception) to September 30, 2004. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. My responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on my audits.
I conducted my audits in accordance with standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that I plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. I believe that my audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In my opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of GiraSolar B.V. as of September 30, 2005 and 2004, and the results of its consolidated operations and cash flows for the year ended September 30, 2005 and for the period from November 25, 2003 (date of inception) through September 30, 2004, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
SEPTEMBER 30, 2005
Note 1 – Organization and Principal Activities
Organization
Girasolar, B.V. (hereinafter referred to as “the Company”), was founded on November 25, 2003, and has its legal seat at Deventer, the Netherlands. The financial statements include the Company, and its two wholly-owned subsidiaries, GiraMundo, B.V. and DutchSolar, B.V. both with their registered office located in Deventer, the Netherlands.
The Company and its subsidiaries primary activities consist of the production of solar energy equipment; the sale of solar energy applications and equipment; and consultancy of solutions in the field of solar energy applications and equipment.
Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Principles of consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Girasolar, B.V. and its wholly owned subsidiaries, of which the Company has the ability to exercise control and direct operations. All material intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated on consolidation.
Basis of presentation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Use of estimates
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience, management expectations for future performance, and other assumptions as appropriate. Key areas affected by estimates include income taxes, contingencies and investment valuation. Actual results may vary from those estimates.
Revenue recognition
Revenue is recognized in accordance with SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 101, “Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements’. The Company recognizes revenue when the significant risks and rewards of ownership have been transferred to the customer pursuant to applicable laws and regulations, including factors such as when there has been evidence of a sales arrangement, delivery has occurred, or service have been rendered, the price to the buyer is fixed or determinable, and collectibility is reasonably assured.
Comprehensive Income (loss)
The Company has adopted SFAS No. 130, “Reporting Comprehensive Income”, which requires the disclosure of comprehensive income, which includes net income (loss), unrealized gains and losses on marketable securities classified as available-for-sale, and foreign currency translation adjustments. Total comprehensive loss for the period November 25, 2003 (date of inception) through September 30, 2004 and for the year ended September 30, 2005 consisted of the net income for the respective periods, the foreign currency translation adjustments, and the unrealized loss on available for sale securities.
GIRASOLAR, B.V.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
SEPTEMBER 30, 2005
Stock – Based Compensation
The Company may periodically issue shares of common stock for services rendered or for other costs and expenses. Such shares will be valued based on the market price of the shares on the transaction date.
The Company may periodically issue stock options to employees and stock options or warrants to non-employees in non-capital raising transactions for services and for financing costs.
The Company has adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation” (“SFAS No. 123”), which establishes a fair value method of accounting for stock-based compensation plans.
The provisions of SFAS No. 123 allow companies to either record an expense in the financial statements to reflect the estimated fair value of stock options to employees, or to continue to follow the intrinsic value method set forth in Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees”, but to disclose on an annual basis the pro forma effect on net income (loss) and net income (loss) per share had the fair value of the stock options been recorded in the financial statements. SFAS No. 123 was amended by SFAS No., 148, which now requires companies to disclose in interim financial statements the pro forma effect on net income (loss) and net income (loss) per common share of the estimated fair value of stock options issued to employees.
In accordance with SFAS No. 123, the cost of stock options and warrants issued to non-employees is measured at the grant date based on the fair value of the award. The fair value of the stock-based award is determined using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The resulting amount is charged to expenses on the straight-line basis over the period in which the Company expects to receive benefit, which is generally the vesting period.
Pro Forma Financial Disclosure – In accordance with SFAS No. 123, the Company will provide footnote disclosure with respect to stock-based employee compensation. The value of a stock-based award will be determined using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model, whereby compensation cost is the fair value of the award as determined by the pricing model at the grant date or other measurement date. The resulting amount will be charged to expense on the straight-line basis over the period in which the Company expects to receive benefit, which is generally the vesting period.
The Company did not have any stock options outstanding during the period November 25, 2003 (date of inception) through September 30, 2004 or the year ended September 30, 2005, accordingly, no pro forma financial disclosure is provided herein.
Foreign Currency Translation
The Company maintains its books and records in Euros (€), the currency of the Netherlands. The Euro is the Company’s functional currency, as the Company’s business activities are located in the Netherlands and denominated in Euros. Translation of amounts into United States dollars (US$”) have been made at the rate of $1.2058 (US $1,) at September 30, 2005, and $1.2417 (US$1) as September 30, 2004. No representation is made that the Euro amount (€) could have been, or could be, converted into US $ at that rate or at any other rate.
GIRASOLAR, B.V.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
SEPTEMBER 30, 2005
Foreign Currency Translation(continued)
The translation of the financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries whose functional currency is other than the US dollar is performed for balance sheet accounts using closing exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date and revenue and expense accounts using an average exchange rate during each reporting period. The gains or losses resulting from translation are included in stockholder’s equity separately as accumulated other comprehensive income (loss).
Earnings Per Common Share
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128, “EarningsPer Share”, requires presentation of basic earnings per share (”Basic EPS) and diluted earnings per share (“Diluted EPS). Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing earnings (loss) available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding (including shares reserved for issuance) during the period. Diluted earnings per share gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period. The Company did not have any potentially dilutive securities outstanding during the period November 25, 2003 (date of inception) through September 30, 2004, or during the year ended September 30, 2005. Accordingly, basic and diluted loss per common share is the same for the period November 25, 2003 (date of inception) through September 30, 2004, and for the year ended September 30, 2005.
Fair Value
Securities owned, are valued using quoted market or dealer prices.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
All cash and short-term investments with original maturities of three months or less are considered cash and cash equivalents, since they are readily convertible to cash. These short-term investments are stated at cost, which approximates fair value.
Concentration of Credit Risk
Financial instruments, which potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk, consist of cash and cash equivalents. The Company extends credit based on an evaluation of the customer’s financial condition, generally without collateral. Exposure to losses on receivables is principally dependent on each customer’s financial condition. The Company monitors its exposure for credit losses and maintains allowances for anticipated losses, as required. Accounts are “written-off” when deemed uncollectible.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are stated at cost. Costs of replacements and major improvements are capitalized, and maintenance and repairs are charged to operations as incurred. Depreciation expense is provided primarily by methods approximating the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, taking into consideration any residual value. The estimated lives of the assets range from three to five years.

Note 3 – Recently issued accounting pronouncements
In March 2004, the FASB approved the consensus reached on the Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) Issue No. 03-1, "The Meaning of Other-Than-Temporary Impairment and Its Application to Certain Investments." The objective of this Issue is to provide guidance for identifying impaired investments. EITF 03-1 also provides new disclosure requirements for investments that are deemed to be temporarily impaired. In September 2004, the FASB issued a FASB Staff Position (FSP) EITF 03-1-1 that delays the effective date of the measurement and recognition guidance in EITF 03-1 until after further deliberations by the FASB. The disclosure requirements are effective only for annual periods ending after June 15, 2004. The Company has evaluated the impact of the adoption of the disclosure requirements of EITF 03-1 and does not believe it will have an impact to the Company's overall combined results of operations or combined financial position. Once the FASB reaches a final decision on the measurement and recognition provisions, the Company will evaluate the impact of the adoption of EITF 03-1.
In November 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 151 "Inventory Costs, an amendment of ARB No. 43, Chapter 4”, (" SFAS No. 151"). The amendments made by SFAS 151 clarify that abnormal amounts of idle facility expense, freight, handling costs, and wasted materials (spoilage) should be recognized as current-period charges and require the allocation of fixed production overheads to inventory based on the normal capacity of the production facilities. The guidance is effective for inventory costs incurred during fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2005. Earlier application is permitted for inventory costs incurred during fiscal years beginning after November 23, 2004. The Company has evaluated the impact of the adoption of SFAS 151, and does not believe the impact will be significant to the Company's overall results of operations or financial position.
In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No.152, "Accounting for Real Estate Time-Sharing Transactions-an amendment of FASB Statements No. 66 and 67" ("SFAS 152") SFAS 152 amends SFAS No. 66, "Accounting for Sales of Real Estate", to reference the financial accounting and reporting guidance for real estate time-sharing transactions that is provided in AICPA Statement of Position (SOP) 04-2, "Accounting for Real Estate Time-Sharing Transactions". SFAS 152 also amends SFAS No. 67, "Accounting for Costs and Initial Rental Operations of Real Estate Projects", to state that the guidance for (a) incidental operations and (b) costs incurred to sell real estate projects does not apply to real estate time-sharing transactions. The accounting for those operations and costs is subject to the guidance in SOP 04-2. SFAS 152 is effective for financial statements for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2005, with earlie r application encouraged. The Company has evaluated the impact of the adoption of SFAS 152, and does not believe the impact will be significant if any, to the Company's overall results of operations or financial position since the Company does not enter into such transactions.
In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No.153, "Exchanges of Nonmonetary Assets, an amendment of APB Opinion No. 29, Accounting for Nonmonetary Transactions." The amendments made by SFAS 153 are based on the principle that exchanges of nonmonetary assets should be measured based on the fair value of the assets exchanged. Further, the amendments eliminate the narrow exception for nonmonetary exchanges of similar productive assets and replace it with a broader exception for exchanges of nonmonetary assets that do not have commercial substance. Previously, Opinion 29 required that the accounting for an exchange of a productive asset for a similar productive asset or an equivalent interest in the same or similar productive asset should be based on the recorded amount of the asset relinquished. Opinion 29 provided an exception to its basic measurement principle (fair value) for exchanges of similar productive assets. That exception required that som e nonmonetary exchanges, although commercially substantive, to be recorded on a carryover basis. By focusing the exception on

exchanges that lack commercial substance, the FASB believes SFAS No.153 produces financial reporting that more faithfully represents the economics of the transactions. SFAS No.153 is effective for nonmonetary asset exchanges occurring in fiscal periods beginning after June 15, 2005. Earlier application is permitted for nonmonetary asset exchanges occurring in fiscal periods beginning after the date of issuance. The provisions of SFAS No.153 shall be applied prospectively. The Company has evaluated the impact of the adoption of SFAS 153, and does not believe the impact will be significant to the Company's overall results of operations or financial position.
In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No.123 (revised 2004), "Share-Based Payment" ("SFAS 123(R)"). SFAS 123(R) will provide investors and other users of financial statements with more complete and neutral financial information by requiring that the compensation cost relating to share-based payment transactions be recognized in financial statements. That cost will be
measured based on the fair value of the equity or liability instruments issued. SFAS 123(R) covers a wide range of share-based compensation arrangements including share options, restricted share plans, performance-based awards, share appreciation rights, and employee share purchase plans. SFAS 123(R) replaces SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation", and supersedes APB Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees". SFAS 123, as originally issued in 1995, established as preferable a fair-value-based method of accounting for share-based payment transactions with employees. However, that statement permitted entities the option of continuing to apply the guidance in Opinion 25, as long as the footnotes to financial statements disclosed what net income would have been had the preferable fair-value-based method been used. Public entities (other than those filing as small business issuers) will be required to appl y SFAS 123(R) as of the first interim or annual reporting period that begins after June 15, 2005. This pronouncement is effective for the Company, a small business issuer, as of the first interior annual reporting period that begins after December 15, 2005. The Company has evaluated the impact of the adoption of SFAS 123(R), and does not believe the impact will be significant to the Company's overall results of operations or financial position.
