Condensed Notes to Interim Consolidated Financial Statements
September 30, 2009
(Amounts expressed in US Dollars)
(Unaudited-Prepared by Management)
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and therefore do not include all information and footnotes necessary for a fair presentation of financial position, results of operations and cash flows in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP); however, such information reflects all adjustments (consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments), which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair statement of the results for the interim periods. The condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and Notes thereto together with management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations contained in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2009. In the opinion of management, the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments of a normal recurring nature considered necessary to fairly state the financial position of the Company at September 30, 2009 and June 30, 2009, the results of its operations for the three-months periods ended September 30, 2009 and September 30, 2008, and its cash flows for the three-months periods ended September 30, 2009 and September 30, 2008. In addition, some of the Company’s statements in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q may be considered forward-looking and involve risks and uncertainties that could significantly impact expected results. The results of operations for the three-month period ended September 30, 2009 are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the full year.
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries, Infrastructure Materials Corp US and Silver Reserve Corp. All material inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

On December 1, 2008, the Company amended its Certificate of Incorporation to change its name from “Silver Reserve Corp.” to “Infrastructure Materials Corp.”
The Company operates with the intent of exploration and extraction of limestone, silver and other metals in the States of Nevada and Idaho.
The Company is an exploration stage mining company and has not yet realized any revenue from its operations. It is primarily engaged in the acquisition and exploration of mining properties. Mineral property exploration costs are expensed as incurred. Mineral property payments are capitalized only if the Company is able to allocate any economic value beyond proven and probable reserves. When it has been determined that a mineral property can be economically developed as a result of establishing proven and probable reserves, the costs incurred to develop such property will be capitalized. For the purpose of preparing financial information, the Company is unable to allocate any economic value beyond proven and probable reserves and hence all property payments are considered to be impaired and accordingly written off to project expense. All costs associated with a property that has the potential to add to the Company’s proven and probable reserves are expensed until a final feasibility study demonstrating the existence of proven and probable reserves is completed. No costs have been capitalized in the periods covered by these financial statements. Once capitalized, such costs will be amortized using the units-of-production method over the estimated life of the probable reserve.
Mineral property acquisition costs also will be capitalized in accordance with the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force ("EITF") Issue 04-2 when management has determined that probable future benefits consisting of a contribution to future cash inflows have been identified and that adequate financial resources are available or are expected to be available as required to meet the terms of property acquisition and budgeted exploration and development expenditures. Mineral property payments are expensed as incurred if the criteria for capitalization is not met.
To date, mineral property exploration costs have been expensed as incurred. As of the date of these financial statements, the Company has incurred only property payments and exploration costs which have been expensed. To date the Company has not established any proven or probable reserves on its mineral properties.
In November of 2008, the Company expanded its business focus to include the exploration and, if warranted, development of cement grade limestone properties, also located in the States of Nevada and Idaho. The Company acquired as a wholly-owned subsidiary Infrastructure Materials Corp US (“IMC US”), a Nevada Corporation, pursuant to a Share Exchange Agreement (the “Agreement”) between the Company, IMC US and Todd D. Montgomery dated as of November 7, 2008. Mr. Montgomery was the sole shareholder of IMC US, in addition to serving as the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and as a member of its Board of Directors.

7. | Stock Based Compensation-Cont’d |
Under the 2006 Stock Option Plan, officers, directors, employees and consultants who provide services to the Company may be granted options to acquire common shares of the Company at the fair market value of the stock on the date of grant. Options may have a term of up to 10 years. The total number of shares reserved for issuance under the 2006 Stock Option Plan is 5,000,000.
Three months ended September 30, 2009
On September 14, 2009 the Board terminated the consulting services agreement with Scott Koyich effective as of October 15, 2009 and resolved to extend the expiry of his options from his termination date to October 15, 2010.
For the three month period ended September 30, 2009, the Company recognized in the financial statements, stock-based compensation costs as per the following details. The fair value of each option used for the purpose of estimating the stock compensation is based on the grant date using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following weighted average assumptions.
The expected term calculation is based upon the expected term the option is to be held, which is the full term of the option. The risk-free interest rate is based upon the U.S. Treasury yield in effect at the time of grant for an instrument with a maturity that is commensurate with the expected term of the stock options. The dividend yield of zero is based on the fact that the Company has never paid cash dividends on its common stock and has no present intention to pay cash dividends. The expected forfeiture rate of 0% is based on the vesting of stock options in a short period of time.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATION
FOR THE THREE MONTH PERIOD ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2009
PLAN OF OPERATIONS
We will require additional capital to implement development of our claim groups and to bring the mill to operation. We expect to raise this capital through a public offering, private placements of our securities or through loans or some combination of the foregoing.
Discussion of Operations and Financial Condition
Three Month Period ended September 30, 2009
The Company has no source of revenue and we continue to operate at a loss. We expect our operating losses to continue for so long as we remain in an exploration stage and perhaps thereafter. As at September 30, 2009, we had accumulated losses of $13,695,518. Our ability to emerge from the exploration stage and conduct mining operations is dependent, in large part, upon our raising additional equity financing. We are continuing our efforts to raise capital and are moving forward with development of our assets.
In November of 2008, the Company substantially changed its business focus to the exploration and development of cement grade limestone properties located in the States of Nevada and Idaho. This followed a period of research and analysis by management earlier in 2008 with respect to the growing need for repair and upgrading of basic infrastructure in North America. The Company determined that infrastructure investment would increase and with it the demand for cement. The Company projected that areas such as Nevada and California would have a significant shortfall in cement production. As a result of this research, the Company set out to acquire cement grade limestone properties in strategic locations that could supply these areas. The stimulus and infrastructure investments announced by the Obama Administration further strengthened the Company’s conclusions. Current proposals by governments to create jobs through large scale expenditures in infrastructure only enhance the Company’s opportunity.
The Company’s major endeavor over the three months ended September 30, 2009 has been its effort to pursue exploration activities on our limestone Projects as well as secure a sale of our silver properties and milling facility.
We have identified and recorded 619 claims on BLM land covering eight Projects. On private land we acquired 100% of the Mineral Rights on 1,120 acres and 50% of the Mineral Rights on 6,740 acres all of which have potential for cement grade limestone. Exploration on these limestone properties indicates that the Morgan Hill Project and the Blue Nose Project have potential for development of a substantial cement grade limestone resource. Our efforts going forward through our fiscal year 2009/2010 will be concentrated on development of these two Projects and the search for other limestone deposits in strategic locations that can service areas with a shortage of cement production.
We have completed the evaluation of all our silver/base metal projects and determined that the Pansy Lee, Medicine and Silver Queen Projects provide the best opportunity for development of resources that could go to production. Based on results obtained, we have decided to abandon the Como Project, thereby reducing the Projects to 14. Permitting of the Red Rock mill site at Mina, Nevada is progressing.
As of November 7, 2008, the Company acquired Infrastructure Materials Corp US (“IMC US”), a Nevada corporation, as a wholly-owned subsidiary pursuant to a Share Exchange Agreement (the “Agreement”) between the Company, IMC US and Todd D. Montgomery. Mr. Montgomery was the sole shareholder of IMC US in addition to serving as the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and as a member of its Board of Directors. The Agreement was approved by the disinterested members of the Company’s Board of Directors on November 6, 2008. Under the terms of the Agreement, the Company acquired all of the issued and outstanding stock of IMC US in exchange for 397,024 shares of the Company’s common stock at agreed price of $0.50 per share. The transaction was measured at the fair value, being the market value of the equity instruments delivered on the transaction date. The fair value of the Company’s 397,024 shares issued was measured at $31,762. As of the date of this report, the Company does not consider the mineral claims acquired pursuant to the Agreement to be material. Our assessment may change after exploration of the claims.
On December 1, 2008, the Company amended its Certificate of Incorporation to change its name from Silver Reserve Corp. to “Infrastructure Materials Corp.”
On December 18, 2008, the Company incorporated a second wholly owned subsidiary in the State of Delaware under its former name “Silver Reserve Corp.” (“SRC”). On March 27, 2009, the Company assigned all of its silver/base metal projects to SRC and on March 27, 2009 the Company assigned its interest in the Milling Facility at Mina, Nevada to SRC.

Revenues
No revenue was generated by the Company’s operations during the three-month periods ended September 30, 2009 and September 30, 2008.
Net Loss
The Company is an exploration stage mining company and has not yet realized any revenue from its operations. It is primarily engaged in the acquisition and exploration of mining properties. Mineral property exploration costs are expensed as incurred. Mineral property payments are capitalized only if the Company is able to allocate any economic value beyond proven and probable reserves. When it has been determined that a mineral property can be economically developed as a result of establishing proven and probable reserves, the costs incurred to develop such property will be capitalized. For the purpose of preparing financial information, the Company is unable to allocate any economic value beyond proven and probable reserves and hence all property payments are considered to be impaired and accordingly written off to project expense. All costs associated with a property that has the potential to add to the Company’s proven and probable reserves are expensed until a final feasibility study demonstrating the existence of proven and probable reserves is completed. No costs have been capitalized in the periods covered by these financial statements. Once capitalized, such costs will be amortized using the units-of-production method over the estimated life of the probable reserve.
Mineral property acquisition costs will be capitalized in accordance with the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force ("EITF") Issue 04-2 when management has determined that probable future benefits consisting of a contribution to future cash inflows have been identified and that adequate financial resources are available or are expected to be available as required to meet the terms of property acquisition and budgeted exploration and development expenditures. Mineral property payments are expensed as incurred if the criteria for capitalization is not met.
To date, mineral property exploration costs have been expensed as incurred. As of the date of these financial statements, the Company has incurred only property payments and exploration costs which have been expensed. To date the Company has not established any proven or probable reserves on its mineral properties.
The Company’s expenses are reflected in the Statements of Operation under the category of Operating Expenses.
The significant components of expense that have contributed to the total operating expense are discussed as follows:
(a) General and Administrative Expense
Included in operating expenses for the three-month period ended September 30, 2009 is general and administrative expense of $449,198, as compared with $734,360 for the three-month period ended September 30, 2008. General and administrative expense represents approximately 35% of the total operating expense for the three-month period ended September 30, 2009 and approximately 52% of the total operating expense for the three-month period ended September 30, 2008. General and administrative expense represents professional, consulting, office and general and other miscellaneous costs incurred during the three-month periods ended September 30, 2009 and September 30, 2008. General and administrative expense decreased by $285,163 in the current three month period, as compared to the similar three month period for the prior year. The decrease in this expense is mainly due to a decrease in consulting fees of $167,250, and a decrease in due diligence costs of $107,145.
(b) Project Expense
Included in operating expenses for the three-month period ended September 30, 2009 is project expense of $785,770 as compared with $631,672 for the three-month period ended September 30, 2008. Project expense is a significant expense and it represents approximately 61% of the total operating expense for the three-month period ended September 30, 2009 and approximately 45% of the total operating expense for the three-month period ended September 30, 2008.

Maintaining Claims in Good Standing
The Company is required to pay to the Department of Interior Bureau of Land Management (“BLM”) on or before August 31st of each year, a fee in the amount of $140.00 per mineral claim held by the Company. The total amount paid to August 31, 2009 was $172,620 for 1233 claims held by the Company at that date.
The Company is also required to pay annual fees to counties in which the claims are held. As of August 31, 2009, the Company paid $12,356 to nine Counties.
The Company also holds 9 patented claims and 2 leased patented claims. A patented claim is considered fee simple title to the property. Patented claims are subject to taxes assessed based on local annual assessment rates.
Cash Requirements
At September 30, 2009, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $268,475, short-term investments of $2,323,170 and prepaid expenses of $215,362 for a total of $2,807,007. The Company has projected budgeted expenditures for the balance of the fiscal period commencing October 1, 2009 as follows:
General and Administration expenses of $2,234,033 and projected Project expenses of $5,409,455 (subject to availability of funds) for a total of $7,643,485. Our ability to incur the total Project expenses is subject to permitting programs with the BLM and results of the drilling as it progresses. The Company has no firm commitment for additional financing and may not be able to incur the entire Project expense planned in the budget unless further capital is raised.
The Company hopes to be able to sell part or all of its precious and base metal projects and the Red Rock Mill or its wholly owned subsidiary, Silver Reserve Corp. that controls these assets and use the proceeds for exploration and drilling on the limestone projects.
Subsequent Events
The Company has reviewed subsequent events up to October 26, 2009. Subsequent events are as follows.
On October 6, 2009, the Company informed Lance Capital Ltd. (“Lance”), of its intention to terminate its Consulting Services Agreement with Lance with two months notice, pending acceptance of the termination by Lance.

Subsequent to the three months ended September 30, 2009, an additional 371 mineral claims in Lincoln County and 79 mineral claims in Pershing County, Nevada were recorded.
Acquisition, Exploration and Evaluation Expenditures
The Company is an exploration stage mining company and has not yet realized any revenue from its operations. It is primarily engaged in the acquisition and exploration of mining properties. Mineral property exploration costs are expensed as incurred. Mineral property payments are capitalized only if the Company is able to allocate any economic value beyond proven and probable reserves. When it has been determined that a mineral property can be economically developed as a result of establishing proven and probable reserves, the costs incurred to develop such property will be capitalized. For the purpose of preparing financial information, the Company is unable to allocate any economic value beyond proven and probable reserves and hence all property payments are considered to be impaired and accordingly written off to project expense. All costs associated with a property that has the potential to add to the Company’s proven and probable reserves are expensed until a final feasibility study demonstrating the existence of proven and probable reserves is completed. No costs have been capitalized in the periods covered by the financial statements. Once capitalized, such costs will be amortized using the units-of-production method over the estimated life of the probable reserve.
Mineral property acquisition costs also will be capitalized in accordance with the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force ("EITF") Issue 04-2 when management has determined that probable future benefits consisting of a contribution to future cash inflows have been identified and that adequate financial resources are available or are expected to be available as required to meet the terms of property acquisition and budgeted exploration and development expenditures. Mineral property payments are expensed as incurred if the criteria for capitalization is not met.
To date, mineral property exploration costs have been expensed as incurred. As of the date of these financial statements in this document, the Company has incurred only property payments and exploration costs which have been expensed. To date the Company has not established any proven or probable reserves on its mineral properties.

Item 4. | Controls and Procedures |
CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Based on an evaluation conducted by our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer conducted, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as required by Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(e) they concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of September 30, 2009, to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act are:
| 1. | recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified by the SEC's rules and forms, and |
| 2. | accumulated and communicated to management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. |
Management of Infrastructure Materials Corp. is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Internal control over financial reporting is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) or 15d-15(f) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 as a process designed by, or under the supervision of, the company's principal executive and principal financial officers and effected by the company's board of directors, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States and includes those policies and procedures that:
* Pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company;
* Provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and
* 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 financial statements.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation. Because of the inherent limitations of internal control, there is a risk that material misstatements may not be prevented or detected on a timely basis by internal control over financial reporting. However, these inherent limitations are known features of the financial reporting process. Therefore, it is possible to design into the process safeguards to reduce this risk.
In making this assessment, management, used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission in Internal Control-Integrated Framework.
Inherent in small business is the pervasive problem of segregation of duties. Given that the Company has a small accounting department, segregation of duties cannot be completely accomplished at this stage in the corporate lifecycle. Management has added many compensating controls to effectively reduce and minimize the risk of a material misstatement in the Company’s financial statements.
Based on its assessment, management has concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting is effective based on those criteria.
During the quarter ended September 30, 2009, there have been no changes to the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
PART II: OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1: LEGAL PROCEEDINGS:
The Company is not a party to any pending legal proceeding or litigation and none of the Company’s property is the subject of a pending legal proceeding.
ITEM 1A: RISK FACTORS:
1. | THE COMPANY HAS NO SOURCE OF OPERATING REVENUE AND EXPECTS TO INCUR SIGNIFICANT EXPENSES BEFORE ESTABLISHING AN OPERATING COMPANY, IF IT IS ABLE TO ESTABLISH AN OPERATING COMPANY AT ALL. |
Currently, the Company has no source of revenue, limited working capital and no commitments to obtain additional financing. The Company will require additional working capital to carry out its exploration programs. The Company has no operating history upon which an evaluation of its future success or failure can be made. The ability to achieve and maintain profitability and positive cash flow is dependent upon:
| - | further exploration of our properties and the results of that exploration. |
| - | raising the capital necessary to conduct this exploration and preserve the Company’s Properties. |
| - | raising capital to develop our properties, establish a mining operation, and operate this mine in a profitable manner if any of these activities are warranted by the results of our exploration programs and a feasibility study. |
Because the Company has no operating revenue, it expects to incur operating losses in future periods as it continues to spend funds to explore its properties. Failure to raise the necessary capital to continue exploration could cause the Company to go out of business.
2. | BECAUSE OF THE UNIQUE DIFFICULTIES AND UNCERTAINTIES INHERENT IN MINERAL EXPLORATION VENTURES AND CURRENT DETERIORATION IN EQUITY MARKETS, WE FACE A HIGH RISK OF BUSINESS FAILURE. |
Investors should be aware of the difficulties normally encountered by new mineral exploration companies and the high rate of failure of such enterprises. Our prospects are further complicated by a pronounced deterioration in equity markets and constriction in equity capital available to finance and maintain our exploration activities. Our likelihood of success must be considered in light of the problems, expenses, difficulties, complications and delays encountered in connection with the exploration of the mineral properties that we plan to undertake and the difficult economy and market volatility that we are experiencing. Moreover, most exploration projects do not result in the discovery of commercial mineable deposits.
3. | OUR BUSINESS IS AFFECTED BY CHANGES IN COMMODITY PRICES. |
Our ability to develop our properties and the future profitability of those operations is directly related to the market price of certain minerals. The Company is negatively affected by the current decline in commodity prices
4. | THE COMPANY COULD ENCOUNTER REGULATORY AND PERMITTING DELAYS. |
The Company could face delays in obtaining permits to operate on the property covered by the claims. Such delays could jeopardize financing, if any is available, which could result in having to delay or abandon work on some or all of the properties.
5. | THERE ARE PENNY STOCK SECURITIES LAW CONSIDERATIONS THAT COULD LIMIT YOUR ABILITY TO SELL YOUR SHARES. |
Our common stock is considered a "penny stock" and the sale of our stock by you will be subject to the "penny stock rules" of the Securities and Exchange Commission. The penny stock rules require broker-dealers to take steps before making any penny stock trades in customer accounts. As a result, the market for our shares could be illiquid and there could be delays in the trading of our stock which would negatively affect your ability to sell your shares and could negatively affect the trading price of your shares.
6. | CURRENT LEVELS OF MARKET VOLATILITY COULD HAVE ADVERSE IMPACTS |
The capital and credit markets have been experiencing volatility and disruption. If the current levels of market disruption and volatility continue or worsen, there can be no assurance that the Company will not experience adverse effects, which may be material. These effects may include, but are not limited to, difficulties in raising additional capital or debt and a smaller pool of investors and funding sources. There is thus no assurance the Company will have access to the equity capital markets to obtain financing when necessary or desirable.
7. | MINING OPERATIONS IN GENERAL INVOLVE A HIGH DEGREE OF RISK, WHICH WE MAY BE UNABLE, OR MAY NOT CHOOSE TO INSURE AGAINST, MAKING EXPLORATION AND/OR DEVELOPMENT ACTIVITIES WE MAY PURSUE SUBJECT TO POTENTIAL LEGAL LIABILITY FOR CERTAIN CLAIMS. |
Our operations are subject to all of the hazards and risks normally encountered in the exploration, development and production of minerals. These include unusual and unexpected geological formations, rock falls, flooding and other conditions involved in the drilling and removal of material, any of which could result in damage to, or destruction of, mines and other producing facilities, damage to life or property, environmental damage and possible legal liability. Although we plan to take adequate precautions to minimize these risks, and risks associated with equipment failure or failure of retaining dams which may result in environmental pollution, there can be no assurance that even with our precautions, damage or loss will not occur and that we will not be subject to liability which will have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operation and financial condition.
8. | BECAUSE OF THE UNIQUE DIFFICULTIES AND UNCERTAINTIES INHERENT IN MINERAL EXPLORATION VENTURES, WE FACE A HIGH RISK OF BUSINESS FAILURE. |
Stockholders should be aware of the difficulties normally encountered by new mineral exploration companies and the high rate of failure of such enterprises. The likelihood of success must be considered in light of the problems, expenses, difficulties, complications and delays encountered in connection with the exploration of the mineral properties that we plan to undertake. These potential problems include, but are not limited to, unanticipated problems relating to exploration, and additional costs and expenses that may exceed current estimates. Most exploration projects do not result in the discovery of commercially mineable deposits. Problems such as unusual or unexpected formations and other conditions are involved in mineral exploration and often result in unsuccessful exploration efforts.
9 | WE DO NOT INTEND TO PAY DIVIDENDS IN THE FORESEEABLE FUTURE. |
We have never declared or paid a dividend on our common stock. We intend to retain earnings, if any, for use in the operation and expansion of our business and, therefore, do not anticipate paying any dividends in the foreseeable future.

During the quarter ended December 31, 2007, all holders of the Company’s convertible debentures exercised their conversion rights. Under the terms of the convertible debentures, the holders converted the principal amount of their convertible debentures into “units” at $0.50 per unit, where each unit consisted of one Share and one Share purchase warrant to purchase one Share at a price of $0.75. An aggregate of 7,002,134 Shares and an aggregate of 7,002,134 Share purchase warrants were issued upon conversion of the principal amount.
The convertible debentures had a maturity of December 31, 2007 and an interest rate of 2% per annum. Pursuant to the terms of the convertible debentures, the Company had the option of paying interest in shares or in cash. The Company elected to pay interest in Shares, which were restricted upon issuance. An aggregate of 184,596 Shares were issued upon the conversion of the convertible debentures as payment of interest converted at one share for each $0.49 of interest. The Shares issued upon conversion of the convertible debentures and the Shares underlying the warrants were subject to “lock-up” agreements limiting the re-sale of the Shares following exercise.

As of December 31, 2007, all of the holders of the Company’s convertible debentures exercised their conversion rights. Under the terms of the convertible debentures, the holders converted the principal amount of their convertible debentures into “units” where each unit consisted of one Share and a warrant to purchase a Share at a purchase price of $0.75 per Share. An aggregate of 7,002,134 Shares and an aggregate of 7,002,134 Share purchase warrants were issued upon conversion of the principal amount. The re-sale of said 14,004,268 Shares may be effected pursuant to a prospectus dated May 1, 2007. The convertible debentures had a maturity date of December 31, 2007 and an interest rate of 2% per annum. Pursuant to the terms of the convertible debentures, the Company had the option of paying interest in Shares or in cash. The Company elected to pay interest in Shares, which were restricted upon issuance. An aggregate of 184,596 Shares were issued upon the conversion of the convertible debentures as payment of interest.
On August 22, 2008, the Company completed private placements of 7,040,000 “Units” at $0.50 per Unit from accredited investors, as that term is defined in Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act. Each one Unit consists of one Share and one half Share purchase warrant. Each full warrant entitled the holder to purchase one Share at $0.75 on or before September 1, 2010. The private placement was conducted entirely outside the United States pursuant to an exemption from registration under the Securities Act, provided by Regulation S. All of the investors were non-U.S. Persons and executed subscription agreements containing the representations and covenants required for the exemption under Regulation S. The Company paid a commission of $147,000 and issued 294,000 broker warrants to purchase Units at $0.50 per Unit in connection with the private placement. These Units have the same terms as those sold to investors.
