NOTE-1 | BASIS OF PRESENTATION |
The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements have been prepared by management in accordance with both accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”).

On September 1, 2008, the Company incorporated Eatware Assets Management Limited in Hong Kong to establish the manufacturing management service.
Substantially all of its operations are conducted by its subsidiaries in Hong Kong and the People's Republic of China ("PRC").
Extra Ease and its subsidiaries are hereinafter collectively referred to as (the “Company”).
NOTE-3 | GOING CONCERN UNCERTAINTIES |
These consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the discharge of liabilities in the normal course of business for the foreseeable future.
As of December 31, 2008, the Company incurred a net loss of $736,884 with an accumulated deficit of $2,410,395 and suffered from a negative operating cash flow of $936,798. The continuation of the Company is dependent upon the continuing financial support of its stockholder and obtaining short-term and long-term financing, generating significant revenue and achieving profitability. The actions involve certain cost-saving initiatives and growing strategies. As a result, the consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may result from the outcome of the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
NOTE-4 | SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
In preparing these condensed consolidated financial statements, management makes estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities in the balance sheets and revenues and expenses during the periods reported. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
The condensed consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of Extra Ease and its subsidiaries.
All significant inter-company balances and transactions within the Company have been eliminated upon consolidation.

l | Cash and cash equivalents |
Cash and cash equivalents are carried at cost and represent cash on hand, demand deposits placed with banks or other financial institutions and all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less as of the purchase date of such investments.
Accounts receivable are recorded at the invoiced amount and do not bear interest. The Company extends unsecured credit to its customers in the ordinary course of business but mitigates the associated risks by performing credit checks and actively pursuing past due accounts. An allowance for doubtful accounts is established and determined based on managements’ assessment of known requirements, aging of receivables, payment history, the customers’ current credit worthiness and the economic environment. As of December 31, 2008, no allowance for doubtful accounts was required.
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market (net realizable value), cost being determined on a weighted average method. Costs include material, labor and manufacturing overhead costs. The Company quarterly reviews historical sales activity to determine excess, slow moving items and potentially obsolete items and also evaluates the impact of any anticipated changes in future demand. The Company provides inventory allowances based on excess and obsolete inventories determined principally by customer demand. As of December 31, 2008, no allowance for obsolete inventories was required.
Plant and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses, if any. Depreciation is calculated on the straight-line basis over the following expected useful lives from the date on which they become fully operational:
| | Depreciable life |
Leasehold improvement | | Term of the lease (2 years) |
Furniture, fixtures and office equipment | | 4 to 5 years |
Expenditure for repairs and maintenance is expensed as incurred. When assets have retired or sold, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any resulting gain or loss is recognized in the results of operations.
Depreciation expense for the nines months ended December 31, 2008 and 2007 were $1,316 and $1,104, respectively.
l | Impairment of long-life assets |
Long-lived assets primarily include plant and equipment. In accordance with the Statement of Financial Accounting Standard ("SFAS") No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets”, the Company reviews its long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be fully recoverable. If the total of the expected undiscounted future net cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the asset, a loss is recognized for the difference between the fair value and carrying amount of the asset. There has been no impairment as of December 31, 2008.

In accordance with the SEC’s Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 104, “Revenue Recognition”, the Company recognizes revenue when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred, the sales price is fixed or determinable, and collectibility is reasonably assured.
Revenue is recognized when products are delivered to customers. Provisions for discounts and rebates to customers, estimated returns and allowances, and other adjustments are provided for in the same period the related sales are recorded. In instances where products are configured to customer requirements, revenue is recorded upon the successful completion of the Company’s final test procedures and the customer’s acceptance.
The Company is subject to valued-added tax (“VAT”) under the PRC tax law which is levied on the majority of the products at the rate of 17% on the invoiced value of sales. Output VAT is borne by customers in addition to the invoiced value of sales and input VAT is borne by the subsidiaries in addition to the invoiced value of purchases to the extent not refunded for export sales.
Interest income is recognized on a time apportionment basis, taking into account the principal amounts outstanding and the interest rates applicable.
SFAS No. 130, “Reporting Comprehensive Income”, establishes standards for reporting and display of comprehensive income, its components and accumulated balances. Comprehensive income as defined includes all changes in equity during a period from non-owner sources. Accumulated comprehensive income, as presented in the accompanying consolidated statements of stockholders’ equity consists of changes in unrealized gains and losses on foreign currency translation. This comprehensive income is not included in the computation of income tax expense or benefit.
The Company accounts for income tax using SFAS No. 109 “Accounting for Income Taxes”, which requires the asset and liability approach for financial accounting and reporting for income taxes. Under this approach, deferred income taxes are provided for the estimated future tax effects attributable to temporary differences between financial statement carrying amounts of assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases, and for the expected future tax benefits from loss carry-forwards and provisions, if any. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using the enacted tax rates expected in the years of recovery or reversal and the effect from a change in tax rates is recognized in the statements of operations and comprehensive income in the period of enactment. A valuation allowance is provided to reduce the amount of deferred tax assets if it is considered more likely than not that some portion of, or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.

The Company also adopts the provisions of the Financial Accounting Standards Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes” (“FIN 48”). FIN 48 prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement process for recording in the financial statements uncertain tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. FIN 48 also provides guidance on de-recognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosures and transitions. The adoption of FIN 48 did not have a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
In connection with the adoption of FIN 48, the Company analyzed the filing positions in all of the federal, state and foreign jurisdictions where the Company and its subsidiaries are required to file income tax returns, as well as all open tax years in these jurisdictions. The Company adopted the policy of recognizing interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax positions as income tax expense. The Company did not have any unrecognized tax positions or benefits and there was no effect on the financial condition or results of operations for the nine months ended December 31, 2008 and 2007.
The Company conducts major businesses in the PRC and Hong Kong and is subject to taxes in these jurisdictions. As a result of its business activities, the Company files tax returns that are subject to examination by the local and foreign tax authorities.
l | Foreign currencies translation |
Transactions denominated in currencies other than the functional currency are translated into the functional currency at the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the functional currency are translated into the functional currency using the applicable exchange rates at the balance sheet dates. The resulting exchange differences are recorded in the statement of operations.
The reporting currency of the Company is the United States dollar ("US$"). The Company’s subsidiaries operating in Hong Kong maintained their books and records in its local currency, Hong Kong Dollars ("HK$") while a subsidiary operating in the PRC maintained its books and records in its local currency, Renminbi Yuan ("RMB"), which are functional currencies as being the primary currency of the economic environment in which these entities operate.
In general, assets and liabilities are translated into US$, in accordance with SFAS No. 52, “Foreign Currency Translation”, using the exchange rate on the balance sheet date. Revenues and expenses are translated at average rates prevailing during the year. The gains and losses resulting from translation of financial statements of foreign subsidiaries are recorded as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive income within the statement of stockholders’ equity.
Translation of amounts from RMB and HK$ into US$1 has been made at the following exchange rates for the respective periods:
| | 2008 | | | 2007 | |
Period end RMB:US$1 exchange rate | | | 6.8555 | | | | 7.3171 | |
Average rates RMB:US$1 exchange rate | | | 6.8927 | | | | 7.5678 | |
Period end HK$:US$1 exchange rate | | | 7.7507 | | | | 7.8049 | |
Average rates HK$:US$1 exchange rate | | | 7.7847 | | | | 7.8006 | |

Parties, which can be a corporation or individual, are considered to be related if the Company has the ability, directly or indirectly, to control the other party or exercise significant influence over the other party in making financial and operating decisions. Companies are also considered to be related if they are subject to common control or common significant influence.
SFAS No. 131 “Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information” establishes standards for reporting information about operating segments on a basis consistent with the Company’s internal organization structure as well as information about geographical areas, business segments and major customers in the financial statements. During 2008 and 2007, the Company operates two reportable segments in Hong Kong and the PRC.
l | Fair value of financial instruments |
The Company values its financial instruments as required by Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (SFAS) No. 107, “Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments”. The estimated fair value amounts have been determined by the Company, using available market information and appropriate valuation methodologies. The estimates presented herein are not necessarily indicative of amounts that the Company could realize in a current market exchange.
The Company’s financial instruments primarily consist of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, prepayments and other receivables, accounts payable, other payables and accrued liabilities.
As of the balance sheet dates, the estimated fair values of the financial instruments were not materially different from their carrying values as presented due to the short term maturities of these instruments and that the interest rates on the borrowings approximate those that would have been available for loans of similar remaining maturity and risk profile at respective year ends.
l | Recent accounting pronouncements |
The Company has reviewed all recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting pronouncements and do not believe the future adoption of any such pronouncements may be expected to cause a material impact on its financial condition or the results of its operations.
In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements” (“SFAS No. 157”). SFAS No. 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. This statement applies under other accounting pronouncements that require or permit fair value measurement where the FASB has previously determined that under those pronouncements fair value is the appropriate measurement. This statement does not require any new fair value measurements but may require companies to change current practice. This statement is effective for those fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007 and to the interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company believes that SFAS No. 157 should not have a material impact on the consolidated financial position or results of operations

In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159,
“The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities” (“SFAS No. 159”). SFAS No. 159 permits entities to choose to measure, on an item-by-item basis, specified financial instruments and certain other items at fair value. Unrealized gains and losses on items for which the fair value option has been elected are required to be reported in earnings at each reporting date. SFAS No. 159 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, the provisions of which are required to be applied prospectively. The Company believes that SFAS No. 159 should not have a material impact on the consolidated financial position or results of operations.
In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141 (Revised 2007), “Business Combinations” (“SFAS No. 141R”). SFAS No. 141R will change the accounting for business combinations. Under SFAS No. 141R, an acquiring entity will be required to recognize all the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a transaction at the acquisition-date fair value with limited exceptions. SFAS No. 141R will change the accounting treatment and disclosure for certain specific items in a business combination. SFAS No. 141R applies prospectively to 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, 2008. Accordingly, any business combinations the Company engages in will be recorded and disclosed following existing GAAP until January 1, 2009. The Company expects SFAS No. 141R will have an impact on accounting for business combinations once adopted but the effect is dependent upon acquisitions at that time. The Company believes that SFAS No. 141R should not have a material impact on the consolidated financial position or results of operations.
In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, “Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements--An Amendment of ARB No. 51, or SFAS No. 160” (“SFAS No. 160”). SFAS No. 160 establishes new accounting and reporting standards for the noncontrolling interest in a subsidiary and for the deconsolidation of a subsidiary. SFAS No. 160 is effective for fiscal years beginning on or after December 15, 2008. The Company believes that SFAS No. 160 should not have a material impact on the consolidated financial position or results of operations.
In March 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 161, “Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities” (“SFAS No. 161”). SFAS No. 161 requires companies with derivative instruments to disclose information that should enable financial-statement users to understand how and why a company uses derivative instruments, how derivative instruments and related hedged items are accounted for under FASB Statement No. 133 “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities” and how derivative instruments and related hedged items affect a company��s financial position, financial performance and cash flows. SFAS No. 161 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after November 15, 2008. The adoption of this statement is not expected to have a material effect on the Company's future financial position or results of operations.
In May 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 162, “The Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles” (“SFAS No. 162”). This statement identifies the sources of accounting principles and the framework for selecting the principles to be used in the preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) in the United States. This statement is effective 60 days following the SEC’s approval of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board amendments to AU Section 411, “The Meaning of Present Fairly in Conformity With Generally Accepted Accounting Principles”. The Company does not expect the adoption of SFAS No. 162 to have a material effect on the financial condition or results of operations of the Company.

Also in May 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 163, "Accounting for Financial Guarantee Insurance Contracts--an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 60" ("SFAS No. 163"). SFAS No. 163 interprets Statement 60 and amends existing accounting pronouncements to clarify their application to the financial guarantee insurance contracts included within the scope of that Statement. SFAS No. 163 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008, and all interim periods within those fiscal years. As such, the Company is required to adopt these provisions at the beginning of the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009. The Company believes that SFAS No. 163 should not have a material impact on the consolidated financial position or results of operations.
In May 2008, the FASB issued FSP APB 14-1, "Accounting for Convertible Debt Instruments that may be Settled in Cash upon Conversion (Including Partial Cash Settlement)" ("FSP APB 14-1"). FSP APB 14-1 applies to convertible debt securities that, upon conversion, may be settled by the issuer fully or partially in cash. FSP APB 14-1 specifies that issuers of such instruments should separately account for the liability and equity components in a manner that will reflect the entity's nonconvertible debt borrowing rate when interest cost is recognized in subsequent periods. FSP APB 14-1 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years after December 15, 2008, and must be applied on a retrospective basis. Early adoption is not permitted. The Company believes that this FSP should not have a material impact on the consolidated financial position or results of operations.
In June 2008, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position ("FSP") EITF 03-6-1, "Determining Whether Instruments Granted in Share-Based Payment Transactions Are Participating Securities" ("FSP EITF 03-6-1"). FSP EITF 03-6-1 addresses whether instruments granted in share-based payment transactions are participating securities prior to vesting, and therefore need to be included in the earnings allocation in computing earnings per share under the two-class method as described in SFAS No. 128, Earnings per Share. Under the guidance of FSP EITF 03-6-1, unvested share-based payment awards that contain nonforfeitable rights to dividends or dividend equivalents (whether paid or unpaid) are participating securities and shall be included in the computation of earnings-per-share pursuant to the two-class method. FSP EITF 03-6-1 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008 and all prior-period earnings per share data presented shall be adjusted retrospectively. Early application is not permitted. The Company believes that this FSP should not have a material impact on the consolidated financial position or results of operations.
In June 2008, the FASB ratified EITF No. 07-5, "Determining Whether an Instrument (or an Embedded Feature) is Indexed to an Entity's Own Stock" ("EITF 07-5"). EITF 07-5 provides that an entity should use a two-step approach to evaluate whether an equity-linked financial instrument (or embedded feature) is indexed to its own stock, including evaluating the instrument's contingent exercise and settlement provisions. EITF 07-5 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008. Early application is not permitted. The Company believes that this EITF 07-5 should not have a material impact on the consolidated financial position or results of operations.
In September 2008, the FASB issued FSP 133-1 and FIN 45-4, “Disclosures about Credit Derivatives and Certain Guarantees: An Amendment of FASB Statement No. 133 and FASB Interpretation No. 45; and Clarification of the Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 161” (“FSP FAS 133-1” and “FIN 45-4”). SP 133-1 and FIN 45-4 amends disclosure requirements for sellers of credit derivatives and financial guarantees. It also clarifies the disclosure requirements of SFAS No. 161 and is effective for quarterly periods beginning after November 15, 2008, and fiscal years that include those periods. The adoption of FSP 133-1 and FIN 45-4 did not have a material impact on the Company’s current financial position, results of operation or cash flows.

It illustrated how the fair value of a financial asset is determined when the market for that financial asset is inactive. FSP FAS 157-3 was effective upon issuance, including prior periods for which financial statements had not been issued. The adoption of FSP FAS 157-3 did not have a material impact on the Company’s current financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Under the current laws of the BVI, the Company, EGC and EIL are not subject to income tax.
Hong Kong
EFEL is subject to Hong Kong Profits Tax at the statutory rate of 16.5% (2007: 17.5%) on the assessable income for the years reported. For the nine months ended December 31, 2008 and 2007, its operating subsidiary in Hong Kong incurred an operating loss of $713,487 and $812,571 for income tax purposes and was exempted from Hong Kong Profits Tax.
The PRC
The Company’s subsidiary, RBNT operating in the PRC is subject to the Corporate Income Tax governed by the Income Tax Law of the People’s Republic of China, at a statutory rate of 33%, which is comprised of a 30% national income tax and 3% local income tax. RBNT was exempted from the PRC Income Tax due to the cumulative tax losses for the nine months ended December 31, 2008 and 2007.
On March 16, 2007, the National People’s Congress approved the Corporate Income Tax Law of the PRC (the “New CIT Law”). The New CIT Law, among other things, imposes a unified income tax rate of 25% for both domestic and foreign invested enterprises with effect from January 1, 2008. However, RBNT is considered a foreign invested enterprise and their ultimate applicable effective tax rate in 2008 and beyond will depend on many factors, including but not limited to whether certain of its legal entity will be subject to a transitional policy under the New CIT Law, whether RBNT can continue to enjoy the unexpired tax holidays.
For the nine months ended December 31, 2008 and 2007, the Company incurred net operating losses and, accordingly, no provision for income taxes has been recognized. In addition, no benefit for income taxes has been recorded due to the uncertainty of the realization of any tax assets. As of December 31, 2008, the Company had approximately $1,849,414 of the cumulative tax losses which can be carried forward indefinitely to offset future taxable income, which a full valuation allowance has been provided for, as the management believes it is more likely than not that these assets will not be realized in the future.

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to significant concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash and trade accounts receivable. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers' financial condition, but does not require collateral to support such receivables.
The Company cannot guarantee that the current exchange rate will remain steady; therefore there is a possibility that the Company could post the same amount of net income for two comparable periods and because of the fluctuating exchange rate actually post higher or lower profit depending on exchange rate of HK$ converted to US$ on that date. The exchange rate could fluctuate depending on changes in political and economic environments without notice.
As the Company has no significant interest-bearing assets, the Company’s income and operating cash flows are substantially independent of changes in market interest rates.
The Company’s interest-rate risk arises from bank borrowings. Borrowings issued at variable rates expose the Company to cash flow interest-rate risk. Borrowings issued at fixed rates expose the Company to fair value interest-rate risk. Company policy is to maintain approximately all of its borrowings in fixed rate instruments. At the period-end, all of borrowings were at fixed rates.
NOTE-14 | COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES |
(a) | Operating lease commitments |
The Company was committed under various non-cancelable operating leases with fixed monthly rentals, due through September 2009. Costs incurred under these operating leases are recorded as rent expense and totaled approximately $28,696 and $27,384 for the nine months ended December 31, 2008 and 2007. Future minimum rental payments due under non-cancelable operating leases are amounted to $99,260 for the year ending December 31, 2009.

On March [31], 2009, the Company entered into a Share Exchange Agreement (the “Agreements”) with China Shoe Holdings, Inc., a company organized under the laws of the State of Neveda and is a reporting issuer in the United States and has its shares listed on the NASD Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board under the symbol “CHSH”. Pursuant to the Agreements, the shareholders of the Company transferred 100% of its issued and outstanding common stock to CHSH in exchange for an aggregate of 121,313,946 shares of common stock of CHSH, thus causing the Company to become a direct wholly-owned subsidiary of CHSH.
The share exchange is treated as a reverse acquisition and recapitalization of CHSH whereby the Company is deemed to be the accounting acquirer (legal acquiree) and CHSH to be the accounting acquiree (legal acquirer). Accordingly, the consolidated entity is considered to be a continuation of CHSH with the net assets of the Company deemed to have been acquired and recorded at its fair value.
