PROSPECTUS SUMMARY
This summary highlights information contained elsewhere in this prospectus. It is not complete and does not contain all of the information that you should consider before investing in our common stock. You should read the entire prospectus carefully, including the section entitled “Risk Factors” and our financial statements and the related notes. In this prospectus, we refer to T3 Motion, Inc. as “T3 Motion,” “our company,” “we,” “us” and “our.” In addition, “T3,” and “T3 Motion” are trademarks of T3 Motion. Other service marks, trademarks and trade names referred to in this prospectus are the property of their respective owners.
Our Company
T3 Motion, Inc. (“T3 Motion”) was incorporated in the State of Delaware on March 16, 2006. T3 Motion is principally engaged in the designing, manufacturing and marketing of personal mobility vehicles powered by electric motors.
T3 Motion’s initial product is the T3 personal mobility vehicle designed specifically for public and private security personnel that is powered by a quiet zero-gas emission electric motor. After three years of development, we delivered to market the first T3 vehicles in early 2007. T3 Motion plans to introduce a series of product variants based on the initial T3 vehicle and the modularity of the sub-systems we have created.
The T3 vehicle design has been highly recognized for professional-based applications. Its iconic look has garnered international acclaim such as the Innovation Award for Best Vehicle at the 2007 International Association of Chiefs of Police (IACP) Convention in New Orleans, Louisiana. Additionally, T3 was honored at the International Spark Design Awards in Pasadena, California in 2007. The T3 vehicle has been featured on local, national and international television and print media being deployed by professionals from law enforcement and private security demonstrating the command presence coupled with the vehicle’s approachability by the public. In addition to being an effective performance-based patrol vehicle, it also aids in public relations by enabling two way conversations between the professional operator and the general public. This unique dynamic allows officers and personnel to more effectively fulfill Community-Oriented Policing (COPS) initiatives that have become prevalent since 9/11.
T3 Motion is headquartered in Costa Mesa, California and has a sales office in the United Kingdom. It also has sales distributors in many other states, South Korea and the People’s Republic of China.

Going Concern
Our independent registered public accounting firm has noted in its report concerning our consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2007 that we have incurred significant losses from operations and has accumulated deficit of approximately $12.0 million at December 31, 2007. Our accumulated deficits as of March 31, 2008 was approximately $14.8 million. These factors among other things raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time. We have incurred losses from operations of $2.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2008, $8.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2007 and $3.5 million for the period from March 16, 2006 (date of inception) to December 31, 2006.
Management believes that its current sources of funds and current liquid assets will allow us to continue as a going concern through at least the end of 2008. We started selling our vehicles in 2007, have obtained equity financing from third parties of $6,659,000 through May 12, 2008 and may raise additional debtand/or equity capital to finance future activities through 2008. As of March 31, 2008, we had approximately $2.2 million of customer purchase commitments to be fulfilled and realized during the remainder of 2008. In light of these plans, management is confident in our ability to continue as a going concern. Despite management’s confidence, our significant recurring losses to date raise substantial doubt as to our ability to continue as a going concern. We cannot assure you that we will achieve operating profits in the future. If we fail as a going concern, our shares of common stock will hold little or no value.
Cash Requirements
Until management achieves our cost reduction strategy over the next year, we will require additional capital to meet our working capital requirements, research and development and capital requirements. We will continue to raise additional equityand/or financing to meet our working capital requirements, including the use of the proceeds from this offering. Management believes that the achievement of our cost reduction strategy and increasing revenue in 2009, will allow us to meet our working capital requirements with our cash inflows from operations; however, they cannot guarantee that we will be able to meet operating cash requirements with operating cash inflows.
Our Market and Industry Overview
The personal mobility market has experienced rapid growth in the past several years. Personal transportation in the United States has become a necessity with law enforcement and government agencies, university campuses, airports, shopping malls, events/promotions, military/government and industrial areas. Similar needs exist in Europe, Asia and Latin America.
Since 9/11 the increase in homeland security spending on equipment has been substantial. The Department of Homeland Security Grant Program was scheduled to award $1.6 billion to municipalities for equipment acquisition and emergency preparedness in 2007. We have an opportunity to capture a substantial portion of this market created by police department purchases of police cars, associated upgrades, bicycles and other security equipment purchased with funds from the Homeland Security.
Adding to the substantial market for security in the post-9/11 world, increasing awareness of global warming is creating a rapidly growing market for vehicles powered by clean technologies. According to the U.S. Department of Energy, there was $2.9 billion invested in alternative energy generation in North America

in 2006. As a zero-gas emissions electric vehicle, the T3 is positioned to take advantage of this trend. With the continual rise in oil prices, many companies are looking for alternative to gas-powered vehicles such as the battery powered T3.
Our Products and Services
The T3 Vehicle
The T3 is a three-wheel, front wheel drive,stand-up, electric personal mobility vehicle with a zero-gas emission electric motor. The T3 has hydraulic disk brakes on both rear wheels, which are matched with17-inch low profile motorcycle tires for long tread wear and demanding performance. The vehicle is equipped with an LCD control panel display and utilizes high intensity LED lighting for its vertically adjustable headlights and taillights. It also features emergency lights, as well as a siren on the law enforcement model. The T3 enables the operator to respond rapidly to calls with low physical exertion. The elevated riding platform allows 360 degrees visibility while the ergonomic riding position reduces fatigue. The T3’s zero degree turning radius makes it highly maneuverable. The T3 comes standard with a lockable storage compartment for equipment and supplies.
Power Modules
The T3 has replaceable power modules that allow continuous vehicle operation without recharging downtime. T3 offers a variety of battery technology options in its power modules. The power modules and charger can be sold separately from the vehicle allowing different pricing models and leasing options.
Accessories
An optional external storage pack allows the operator to carry additional items on the vehicle. Available accessories include an external shotgun mount, a fitted vehicle cover and a multi-function trailer option. Additional accessories are currently being designed and field tested.
Camera System
We are a certified re-seller of Immersive Media’s various security camera models. These camera system offer the option of up to a 360 degree view of the areas patrolled. They also offer the option of global positioning systems (“GPS”) positioning, real-time surveillance or DVR recording options.
Data License
Through our data license agreement with Immersive Media, we can offer the ability to map with the option of GPS coordinating, any area, building or complex. This data can be used as follows:
• | EMS/Disaster Planning — The ability to provide an interactive map for emergency medical services (“EMS”) use to understand and secure the area that has been breached. |
• | Local Security — The ability to have an interactive map of all areas patrolled (including secure areas) for internal training and security. |
• | Advertising — The data can be used to provide interactive tours of any area along with the ability to place or sell advertising in the mapped areas. |
Future Products
We plan to introduce a series of product variants based on the initial T3 vehicle. While the T3 is targeted at law enforcement, security and enterprise markets, we intend to expand our base of T3 vehicle variants by utilizing the modularity of the sub-systems to configure vehicles for specific market uses such as delivery services, personnel transport and personal mobility. As with all new development and products, we cannot

guarantee that the products will make it to market and if they are released to market, whether they will be successful. The products currently in development are:
• | The T3i is our newly developed international model that is built on the existing T3 Series platform. It is intended for use in applications with extreme weather and environmental conditions such as extreme heat from sunlight, dusty or sandy environments. The T3i is currently in final stages of testing and will be released for the market in late 2008. |
• | The G3 is the newest product we are developing. The G3 is a rear-wheel drive, three-wheeled electric vehicle targeted for delivery services, personnel transport and heavy load pulling applications. The G3 is expected to be released for the market in the second half of 2009. |
We also plan to leverage the modularity of the T3 system to enter the consumer market with a scaled down version of the professional T3, T3i and the G3 model.
Our Growth Strategies
The core value of our brand and mission is to become the leader in enabling efficient, clean personal mobility and to continue providing products that are economical, functional, safe and dependable and meets the needs of the professional end user. Our management team has extensive experience in product design, development, innovation, operations, sales and marketing to execute the following growth strategies:
• | Increase our leading presence in law enforcement. | |
• | Capitalize on broader security opportunities, such as airports and universities. | |
• | Expand the T3 product line to address broader enterprise markets. | |
• | Leverage brand into the consumer market. |
Risks Related to Our Company
Investing in our company entails a high degree of risk, including those summarized below and those more fully described in the “Risk Factors” section beginning on page 11 of this prospectus. You should consider carefully such risks before deciding to invest in shares of our common stock.
• | Our limited operating history may not serve as an adequate basis to judge our future prospects and results of operations; | |
• | As a recently formed corporation, we have had very limited operations to date and expect to incur losses in the near future. We may require additional financing to sustain our operations and without it, we may not be able to continue our operations; | |
• | If we are unable to continue as a going concern, our securities will have little or no value. | |
• | Our markets are highly competitive, and if we are unable to compete effectively, we will be adversely affected; | |
• | Our failure to further refine our technology and develop and introduce new personal mobility products could render our products uncompetitive or obsolete and reduce our sales and market share; | |
• | The products we sell are inherently risky and could give rise to product liability, product warranty claims, and other loss contingencies; and | |
• | Our success is heavily dependent on protecting our intellectual property rights and successful branding of our name and product. |

Plan of Distribution
The offering of 5,000,000 shares of our common stock in the Direct Offering at an initial price of $2.00 per share, on a “best efforts” basis, is being made on a self-underwritten basis by us through our officers and directors who will not be paid any commission or other compensation and without the use of underwriters or broker-dealers. Our officers and directors will be the only persons that will conduct the direct public offering. They intend to offer and sell the shares in the primary offering through their business and personal contacts. We expect to receive $10,000,000 if we sell all of these shares, but there is no guarantee that any or all of the shares will be sold. There is a possibility that no proceeds will be raised or that if any proceeds are raised, they may not be sufficient to cover the cost of the offering.
The Selling Stockholders also may be selling up to 14,472,198 shares of common stock at a price of $2.00 per share. We will not receive any proceeds from the sale of such shares. We will, however receive proceeds of $754,148 if 697,639 warrants are exercised at the exercise price of $1.081 per warrant held by a certain selling stockholder. We will also receive proceeds of $1,402,597, $2,298,701 and $2,597,402 if 1,298,701, 1,298,701 and 1,298,701 warrants are exercised at the exercise price of $1.08, $1.77 and $2.00, respectively per warrant. These exercise prices are equal to or less than the fixed price of $2.00 at which Selling Stockholders must sell their shares until our shares are quoted on the Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board or are listed on an exchange.

RISK FACTORS
You should carefully consider the risks described below before making an investment decision. Our business could be harmed by any of these risks. The trading price of our common stock could decline due to any of these risks, and you may lose all or part of your investment. In assessing these risks, you should also refer to the other information contained in this prospectus, including our consolidated financial statements and related notes.
Risks Related to Our Company and Our Industry
Our limited operating history may not serve as an adequate basis to judge our future prospects and results of operations.
We have a limited operating history. We developed our first personal mobility product in late 2006. Our limited operating history and the unpredictability of our industry make it difficult for investors to evaluate our business and future operating results. An investor in our securities must consider the risks, uncertainties and difficulties frequently encountered by companies in new and rapidly evolving markets. The risks and difficulties we face include challenges in accurate financial planning as a result of limited historical data and the uncertainties resulting from having had a relatively limited time period in which to implement and evaluate our business strategies as compared to older companies with longer operating histories.
The likelihood of our success must be considered in light of the problems, expenses, difficulties, complications and all delays frequently encountered in connection with the formation of a new business, the commencement of operations and the competitive environment in which we intend to operate. Our ability to implement our business plan remains unproven and no assurance can be given that we will ever generate sufficient revenues to sustain our business or make a profit.
As a recently formed corporation, we have had very limited operations to date and expect to incur losses in the near future. We may require additional financing to sustain our operations and without it we may not be able to continue our operations.
We are a newly formed corporation and, as such, we have little revenue and anticipate that we will continue to incur losses and negative cash flow for the foreseeable future. Since we recently commenced operations, we may not foresee all developments and problems that may occur and the amount of time and capital required to become profitable and cash flow positive. We may need additional funds to continue our operations, and such additional funds may not be available when required, or that such funding, if available, will be obtained on terms favorable to or affordable by us.
To date, we have financed our operations through equity and debt financing. Our ability to arrange future financing from third parties will depend upon our perceived performance and market conditions. Our inability to raise additional working capital at all or to raise it in a timely manner would negatively impact our ability to fund our operations, to generate revenues and to otherwise execute our business plan, leading to the reduction or suspension of our operations and ultimately forcing us to go out of business. Should this occur, the value of our common stock could be adversely affected and investors could lose their entire investment.
We may be unable to raise sufficient financing through this registration statement.
We intend to sell 5.0 million shares of our common stock through this direct public offering. We are registering approximately 24.0 million shares (including approximately 4.6 million shares issuable upon exercise of outstanding warrants) on behalf of selling shareholders. The amount of shares of our common stock we may sell through this registration statement may be adversely affected by the competing shares being sold by the selling shareholders through this registration statement. If we are unable to sell a sufficient number of our shares through this offering, we may be required to find alternate sources of financing, including transactions that are significantly dilutive to our investors.

If we are unable to continue as a going concern, our securities will have little or no value.
Our independent registered public accounting firm has noted in its report concerning our consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2007 that we have incurred recurring losses from operations and have an accumulated deficit of approximately $12.0 million as of December 31, 2007. Our accumulated deficit as of March 31, 2008 was approximately $14.8 million. These factors among others raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. We have incurred losses from operations of $2.3 million for the three month ended March 31, 2008, $8.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2007 and $3.5 million for the period from March 16, 2006 (date of inception) to December 31, 2006.
As of June 30, 2008, we had $2.5 million in cash on hand to use for working capital, regulatory filing requirements, research and development and capital requirements. After this Registration Statement is declared effective, we will incur legal, accounting and other costs associated with being a public company. For the three months ended March 31, 2008, we used $2.2 million in cash for operating activities. We continue to use cash in excess of operating requirements; however, management has been and is continuing to implement its cost reduction strategy for material, production and service costs. Until management achieves our cost reduction strategy over the next year, we will require additional capital to meet our working capital requirements, research and development and capital requirements and compliance requirements. We will continue to raise additional equityand/or financing to meet our working capital requirements, including the use of the proceeds from this offering. Management believes that the achievement of our cost reduction strategy in 2009, will allow us to meet our working capital requirements with our cash inflows from operations. However, we cannot guarantee that we will be able to meet operating cash requirements with operating cash inflows.
Management believes that its current sources of funds and current liquid assets will allow us to continue as a going concern through at least the end of 2008. We started selling our vehicles in 2007 and we have obtained equity financing from third parties of $6,659,000 through May 12, 2008 and may raise additional debtand/or equity capital to finance future activities through 2008. As of March 31, 2008, we had approximately $2.2 million of customer purchase commitments to be fulfilled and realized during 2008. In light of these plans, management is confident in our ability to continue as a going concern. Despite management’s confidence, our significant recurring losses to date raise substantial doubt as to our ability to continue as a going concern. We cannot assure you that we will achieve operating profits in the future. If we fail as a going concern, our shares of common stock will hold little or no value.
Our markets are highly competitive, and if we are unable to compete effectively, we will be adversely affected.
The industries in which we operate include competitors who are larger, better financed and better known than we are and may compete more effectively than we can. In order to stay competitive in our industry, we must keep pace with changing technologies and customer preferences. If we are unable to differentiate our products from those of our competitors, our revenues may decline. In addition, our competitors have established relationships among themselves or with third parties to increase their ability to address customer needs. As a result, new competitors or alliances among competitors may emerge and compete more effectively than we can.
Our failure to further refine our technology and develop and introduce new personal mobility products could render our products uncompetitive or obsolete, and reduce our sales and market share.
The personal mobility industry is characterized by rapid increases in the diversity and complexity of technologies, products and services. We will need to invest significant financial resources in research and development to keep pace with technological advances in the personal mobility industry, evolving industry standards and changing customer requirements. However, research and development activities are inherently uncertain, and we might encounter practical difficulties in commercializing our research results. Our significant expenditures on research and development may not reap corresponding benefits. A variety of competing personal mobility technologies that other companies may develop could prove to be more cost-effective and have better performance than our products. Therefore, our development efforts may be rendered obsolete by the technological advances of others. Our failure to further refine our technology and develop and introduce

new personal mobility products could render our products uncompetitive or obsolete, and result in a decline in our market share and revenue.
We face risks associated with the marketing, distribution and sale of our personal mobility products internationally, and if we are unable to effectively manage these risks, they could impair our ability to expand our business abroad.
We have plans to expand our marketing, distribution, and sales efforts to the European, Asian, and Middle Eastern markets. This exposes us to a number of risks, including:
• | fluctuations in currency exchange rates; | |
• | difficulty in engaging and retaining distributors who are knowledgeable about and, can function effectively in, overseas markets; | |
• | increased costs associated with maintaining marketing efforts in various countries; | |
• | difficulty and cost relating to compliance with the different commercial and legal requirements of the overseas markets in which we offer our products; | |
• | inability to obtain, maintain or enforce intellectual property rights; and |
Our business depends substantially on the continuing efforts of our executive officers and our ability to maintain a skilled labor force, and our business may be severely disrupted if we lose their services.
Our future success depends substantially on the continued services of our executive officers, especially Ki Nam, our Chief Executive Officer and the Chairman of our Board of Directors. We do not maintain key man life insurance on any of our executive officers. If one or more of our executive officers are unable or unwilling to continue in their present positions, we may not be able to replace them readily, if at all. Therefore, our business may be severely disrupted, and we may incur additional expenses to recruit and retain new officers. In addition, if any of our executives joins a competitor or forms a competing company, we may lose some of our customers.
The products we sell are inherently risky and could give rise to product liability, product warranty claims and other loss contingencies, which could adversely affect our business and financial results.
The products that we manufacture are typically used in situations that may involve high levels of risk of personal injury. Failure to use our products for their intended purposes, failure to use or care for them properly, or their malfunction, or, in some limited circumstances, even correct use of our products, could result in serious bodily injury. Given this potential risk of injury, proper maintenance of our products is critical.
While our products are rigorously tested for quality, our products nevertheless may fail to meet customer expectations from time-to-time. Also, not all defects are immediately detectible. Failures could result from faulty design or problems in manufacturing. In either case, we could incur significant costs to repairand/or replace defective products under warranty. Customers may sue us if any of our products sold to them injure the user. Liability claims could require us to spend significant time and money in litigation and pay significant damages. As a result, any of these claims, whether or not valid or successfully prosecuted, could have a substantial, adverse effect on our business and financial results. In addition, although we currently have product liability insurance, the amount of damages awarded against us in such a lawsuit may exceed the policy limits of such insurance. Further, in some cases, product redesignsand/or rework may be required to correct a defect and such occurrences could adversely impact future business with affected customers. Our business, financial condition, results of operations and liquidity could be materially and adversely affected by any unexpected significant warranty costs.
The failure to achieve acceptable manufacturing yields could adversely affect our business.
We may have difficulty achieving acceptable yields in the manufacture of our products which could lead to higher costs, a loss of customers or delay in market acceptance of our products. Slight impurities or defects

Table of Contents
can cause significant difficulties, particularly in connection with the production of a new product, the adoption of a new manufacturing process or any expansion of our manufacturing capacity and related transitions. Yields below our target levels can negatively impact our gross profit.
From time to time we engage in related party transactions. There are no assurances that these transactions are fair to our company.
From time to time we enter into transactions with related parties which include the purchase from or sale to of products and services from related parties, and advancing these related parties significant sums as prepayments for future goods or services and working capital, among other transactions. We have in place policies and procedures which require the pre-approval of loans between these related parties. Notwithstanding these policies, we cannot assure you that in every instance the terms of the transactions with these various related parties are on terms as fair as we might receive from or extend to third parties. In addition, related party transactions in general have a higher potential for conflicts of interest than third-party transactions, could result in significant losses to our company and may impair investor confidence, which could adversely affect our business and our stock price.
We are dependent on a few single sourced third party manufacturers. Any interruption in our relationships with these parties may adversely affect our business.
Most components used in our products are purchased from outside sources. Certain components are purchased from single sourced suppliers. These single source suppliers provide components used on our products and include domestic suppliers such as American Made, Performance Composites, Imperial Electric and Santa Fe Mold. These suppliers provide the frame, fiberglass body, electric motor, and various small plastic parts, respectively. The failure of any such supplier to meet its commitment on schedule could have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results and financial condition. If a sole-source supplier were to go out of business or otherwise become unable to meet its supply commitments, the process of locating and qualifying alternate sources could require up to several months, during which time our production could be delayed. Such delays could have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results and financial condition.
Our dependence on third party suppliers for key components of our devices could delay shipment of our products and reduce our sales.
We depend on certain domestic and foreign suppliers for the delivery of components used in the assembly of our products. Our reliance on third-party suppliers creates risks related to our potential inability to obtain an adequate supply of components or subassemblies and reduced control over pricing and timing of delivery of components and sub-assemblies. Specifically, we depend on suppliers of batteries and battery components and other miscellaneous customer parts for our products. We also do not have long-term agreements with any of our suppliers and there is no guarantee that supply will not be interrupted. Any interruption of supply for any material components of our products could significantly delay the shipment of our products and have a material adverse effect on our revenues, profitability and financial condition.
Many of our customers have fluctuating budgets, which may cause substantial fluctuations in our results of operations.
Customers for our products include, and may include in the future, federal, state, municipal, foreign and military, law enforcement and other governmental agencies. Government tax revenues and budgetary constraints, which fluctuate from time to time, can affect budgetary allocations for these customers. Many domestic and foreign government agencies have in the past experienced budget deficits that have led to decreased spending in defense, law enforcement and other military and security areas. Our results of operations may be subject to substantial period-to-period fluctuations because of these and other factors affecting military, law enforcement and other governmental spending. A reduction of funding for federal, state, municipal, foreign and other governmental agencies could have a material adverse effect on sales of our products and our business, financial condition, results of operations and liquidity.

Our resources may be insufficient to manage the demands imposed by our growth.
We have rapidly expanded our operations, and this growth has placed significant demands on our management, administrative, operating and financial resources. The continued growth of our customer base and the geographic markets served can be expected to continue to place a significant strain on our resources. In addition, we cannot easily identify and hire personnel qualified both in the provision and marketing of our products. Our future performance and profitability will depend in large part on our ability to attract and retain additional management and other key personnel, and our ability to implement successful enhancements to our management, marketing and sales team and technology personnel.
Decreased demand for electric vehicles could cause our products to become obsolete or lose popularity.
The electric vehicle industry is in its infancy and has experienced substantial change in the last few years. To date, demand for and interest in electric vehicles has grown. However, continued growth in the electric vehicle industry depends on many factors, including:
• | continued development of product technology; | |
• | the environmental consciousness of customers; | |
• | the ability of electric vehicles to successfully compete with vehicles powered by internal combustion engines; | |
• | widespread electricity shortages and the resultant increase in electricity prices, especially in our primary market, California, which could derail our past and present efforts to promote electric vehicles as a practical solution to vehicles which require gasoline; and | |
• | whether future regulation and legislation requiring increased use of nonpolluting vehicles is enacted. |
We cannot assure you that growth in the electric vehicle industry will continue. Our business of providing personal mobility vehicles powered by electric motors may suffer if the electric vehicle industry does not grow or grows more slowly than it has in recent years or if we are unable to maintain the pace of industry demands.
The failure of certain key suppliers to provide us with components could have a severe and negative impact upon our business.
We rely on a small group of suppliers to provide us with our custom design components for our products; some of these are located outside of the United States. If these suppliers become unwilling or unable to provide components, delays could be caused as there are a limited number of alternative suppliers who could provide them on demand. Changes in business conditions, wars, governmental changes and other factors beyond our control or which we do not presently anticipate could affect our ability to receive components from our suppliers in a timely manner. Further, it could be difficult to find replacement components if our current suppliers of custom parts fail to provide the parts needed for these products. A failure by these suppliers to provide the components could severely restrict our ability to manufacture our products and prevent us from fulfilling customer orders in a timely fashion.
Our success is heavily dependent on protecting our intellectual property rights.
We rely on a combination of patent, copyright, trademark and trade secret protections to protect our proprietary technology. Our success will, in part, depend on our ability to obtain trademarks and patents. We license one patent and hold three trademarks registered with the United States Patent and Trademark Office. We cannot assure you that these trademarks and patents will not be challenged, invalidated, or circumvented, or that the rights granted under those registrations will provide competitive advantages to us.
We also rely on trade secrets and new technologies to maintain our competitive position, but we cannot be certain that others will not gain access to these trade secrets. Others may independently develop substantially equivalent proprietary information and techniques or otherwise gain access to our trade secrets.

We may be exposed to liability for infringing intellectual property rights of other companies.
Our success will, in part, depend on our ability to operate without infringing on the proprietary rights of others. Although we have conducted searches and are not aware of any patents and trademarks which our products or their use might infringe, we cannot be certain that infringement has not or will not occur. We could incur substantial costs, in addition to the great amount of time lost, in defending any patent or trademark infringement suits or in asserting any patent or trademark rights, in a suit with another party.
Our officers and directors own a substantial portion of our outstanding common stock, which will enable them to influence many significant corporate actions and in certain circumstances may prevent a change in control that would otherwise be beneficial to our shareholders.
Immediately after the closing of the Offering, our directors and executive officers will control at least 67% of our outstanding shares of stock that are entitled to vote on all corporate actions. In particular, our controlling stockholder, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, Ki Nam, together with his children, will own 67% of the outstanding shares. Mr. Nam could have a substantial impact on matters requiring the vote of the shareholders, including the election of our directors and most of our corporate actions. This control could delay, defer, or prevent others from initiating a potential merger, takeover, or other change in our control, even if these actions would benefit our shareholders and us. This control could adversely affect the voting and other rights of our other shareholders and could depress the market price of our common stock.
Risks Relating Ownership of Our Securities
If a public market for our common stock develops, we expect to experience volatility in the price of our common stock. This may result in substantial losses to investors if they are unable to sell their shares at or above their purchase price.
If a public market for our common stock develops, we expect the market price of our common stock to fluctuate substantially for the indefinite future due to a number of factors, including:
• | our status as a company with a limited operating history and limited revenues to date, which may make risk-averse investors more inclined to sell their shares on the market more quickly and at greater discounts than would be the case with the shares of a seasoned issuer in the event of negative news or lack of progress; | |
• | announcements of technological innovations or new products by us or our competitors; | |
• | the timing and development of our products; | |
• | general and industry-specific economic conditions; | |
• | actual or anticipated fluctuations in our operating results; | |
• | our capital commitments; and | |
• | the loss of any of our key management personnel. |
In addition, the financial markets have experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations. The market prices of the securities of technology companies, particularly companies like ours without consistent revenues and earnings, have been highly volatile and may continue to be highly volatile in the future, some of which may be unrelated to the operating performance of particular companies. The sale or attempted sale of a large amount of common stock into the market may also have a significant impact on the trading price of our common stock. Many of these factors are beyond our control and may decrease the market price of our common stock, regardless of our operating performance. In the past, securities class action litigation has often been brought against companies that experience volatility in the market price of their securities. Whether or not meritorious, litigation brought against us could result in substantial costs, divert management’s attention and resources and harm our financial condition and results of operations.

We do not anticipate paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future, which may reduce your return on an investment in our common stock.
We plan to use all of our earnings; to the extent we have earnings, to fund our operations. We do not plan to pay any cash dividends in the foreseeable future. We cannot guarantee that we will, at any time, generate sufficient surplus cash that would be available for distribution as a dividend to the holders of our common stock. Therefore, any return on your investment would derive from an increase in the price of our stock, which may or may not occur.
Substantial future sales of our common stock in the public market may depress our stock price.
There are currently outstanding as of June 30, 2008, 43,427,428 shares of common stock, and warrants for the purchase of 697,639, 1,298,701, 1,298,701, 1,298,701 and 120,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $1.081, $1.08, $1.77, $2.00 and $1.54 per share, respectively. Additional warrants for the purchase of 1,862,069 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $0.01 per share may become exercisable upon fulfillment of certain service related milestones by a selling stockholder.
In addition, we intend to file a registration statement onForm S-8 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, to register approximately 7,450,000 shares of our common stock underlying options granted or to be granted to our officers, directors, employees and consultants. These shares, if issued in accordance with these plans, will be eligible for immediate sale in the public market, subject to volume limitations. As of June 30, 2008, there were 5,621,500 options outstanding, of which 2,643,302 were vested.
If our stockholders sell substantial amounts of common stock in the public market, or the market perceives that such sales may occur, the market price of our common stock could fall. The sale of a large number of shares could impair our ability to raise needed capital by depressing the price at which we could sell our common stock.
We may raise additional capital through a securities offering that could dilute your ownership interest and voting rights.
Our certificate of incorporation currently authorizes our board of directors to issue up to 100,000,000 shares of common stock. As of June 30, 2008 after taking into consideration our outstanding common shares, our board of directors will be entitled to issue up to 37,546,761 additional shares. The power of the board of directors to issue shares of common stock or warrants or options to purchase shares of our stock is generally not subject to shareholder approval.
We require substantial working capital to fund our business. If we raise additional funds through the issuance of equity, equity-related or convertible debt securities, these securities may have rights, preferences or privileges senior to those of the holders of our common stock. The issuance of additional common stock or securities convertible into common stock by our board of directors will also have the effect of diluting the proportionate equity interest and voting power of holders of our common stock.
Our incorporation documents and Delaware law may inhibit a takeover that stockholders consider favorable and could also limit the market price of your stock, which may inhibit an attempt by our stockholders to change our direction or management.
Our certificate of incorporation and bylaws will contain provisions that could delay or prevent a change in control of our company. Some of these provisions:
• | authorize our board of directors to determine the rights, preferences, privileges and restrictions granted to, or imposed upon, the preferred stock and to fix the number of shares constituting any series and the designation of such series without further action by our stockholders; | |
• | prohibit stockholders from calling special meetings; | |
• | prohibit cumulative voting in the election of directors, which would otherwise allow less than a majority of stockholders to elect director candidates; |
12
Table of Contents
• | establish advance notice requirements for submitting nominations for election to the board of directors and for proposing matters that can be acted upon by stockholders at a meeting; and | |
• | prohibit stockholder action by written consent, requiring all stockholder actions to be taken at a meeting of our stockholders. |
In addition, we are governed by the provisions of Section 203 of Delaware General Corporate Law. These provisions may prohibit large stockholders, in particular those owning 15% or more of our outstanding voting stock, from merging or combining with us, which may prevent or frustrate any attempt by our stockholders to change our management or the direction in which we are heading. These and other provisions in our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and bylaws and under Delaware law could reduce the price that investors might be willing to pay for shares of our common stock in the future and result in the market price being lower than it would be without these provisions.
We will be subject to the Penny Stock Rules once our common stock becomes eligible for trading. These rules may adversely affect trading in our common stock.
We expect that our common stock will be a “low-priced” security under the “penny stock” rules promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. In accordance with these rules, broker-dealers participating in transactions in low-priced securities must first deliver a risk disclosure document which describes the risks associated with such stocks, the broker-dealer’s duties in selling the stock, the customer’s rights and remedies and certain market and other information. Furthermore, the broker-dealer must make a suitability determination approving the customer for low-priced stock transactions based on the customer’s financial situation, investment experience and objectives. Broker-dealers must also disclose these restrictions in writing to the customer obtain specific written consent from the customer and provide monthly account statements to the customer. The effect of these restrictions will probably decrease the willingness of broker-dealers to make a market in our common stock, decrease liquidity of our common stock and increase transaction costs for sales and purchases of our common stock as compared to other securities.
Stockholders should be aware that, according to Securities and Exchange Commission ReleaseNo. 34-29093, the market for penny stocks has suffered in recent years from patterns of fraud and abuse. Such patterns include (i) control of the market for the security by one or a few broker-dealers that are often related to the promoter or issuer; (ii) manipulation of prices through prearranged matching of purchases and sales and false and misleading press releases; (iii) boiler room practices involving high-pressure sales tactics and unrealistic price projections by inexperienced sales persons; (iv) excessive and undisclosed bid-ask differential and markups by selling broker-dealers; and (v) the wholesale dumping of the same securities by promoters and broker-dealers after prices have been manipulated to a desired level, along with the resulting inevitable collapse of those prices and with consequent investor losses. Our management is aware of the abuses that have occurred historically in the penny stock market. Although we do not expect to be in a position to dictate the behavior of the market or of broker-dealers who participate in the market, management will strive within the confines of practical limitations to prevent the described patterns from being established with respect to our securities.
We will incur increased costs and compliance risks as a result of becoming a public company.
Once we are a public company, we will incur significant legal, accounting and other expenses that T3 did not incur as a private company. We will incur costs associated with our public company reporting requirements. We also anticipate that we will incur costs associated with recently adopted corporate governance requirements, including certain requirements under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, as well as new rules implemented by the SEC and the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”). We expect these rules and regulations, in particular Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, to significantly increase our legal and financial compliance costs and to make some activities more time-consuming and costly. Like many smaller public companies, we face a significant impact from required compliance with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. Section 404 requires management of public companies to evaluate the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting and the independent registered public
13
Table of Contents
accounting firm to attest to the effectiveness of such internal controls. The SEC has adopted rules implementing Section 404 for public companies as well as disclosure requirements. The Public Company Accounting Oversight Board, or PCAOB, has adopted documentation and attestation standards that the independent registered public accounting firm must follow in conducting its attestation under Section 404. We are currently preparing for compliance with Section 404; however, there can be no assurance that we will be able to effectively meet all of the requirements of Section 404 as currently known to us in the currently mandated timeframe. Any failure to implement effectively new or improved internal controls, or to resolve difficulties encountered in their implementation, could harm our operating results, cause us to fail to meet reporting obligations or result in management being required to give a qualified assessment of our internal controls over financial reporting or our independent registered public accounting firm providing an adverse opinion regarding our controls over financial reporting. Any such result could cause investors to lose confidence in our reported financial information, which could have a material adverse effect on our stock price.
We also expect these new rules and regulations may make it more difficult and more expensive for us to obtain director and officer liability insurance and we may be required to accept reduced policy limits and coverage or incur substantially higher costs to obtain the same or similar coverage. As a result, it may be more difficult for us to attract and retain qualified individuals to serve on our Board of Directors or as executive officers. We are currently evaluating and monitoring developments with respect to these new rules, and we cannot predict or estimate the amount of additional costs we may incur or the timing of such costs.
Management will have substantial discretion over the use of the proceeds of this Offering and may not choose to use them effectively.
We plan to use the proceeds from this Offering as set forth in the section entitled “Use of Proceeds.” Our management will have significant flexibility in applying the net proceeds of this Offering and may apply the proceeds in ways in which you do not agree. The failure of our management to apply these funds effectively could materially harm our business.
Our management determined the Offering price of the Shares. There is a risk that the Shares will trade below your purchase price.
Our management determined the offering price of the Shares. The offering price of the Shares does not necessarily bear any relationship to our assets, book value, net worth or other economic or recognized criteria of value. In no event should the price of the Shares listed in this Registration Statement be regarded as an indicator of any future market price of our common stock. Hence, there are no criteria provided herein to predict the future market price of the common stock and the value of your investment. In determining the number of shares of Common Stock to be offered and the offering price, we considered our business history, capital structure, results of operations and financial condition, prospects for our business and for our company’s industry in general and the general conditions of the securities markets.
Following the effectiveness of our registration statement and listing of our securities on a stock market, our shares of common stock may be thinly traded, so you may be unable to sell at or near ask prices or at all if you need to sell your shares to raise money or otherwise desire to liquidate your shares.
There is no prior history of public trading in our stock upon which to base a determination of the trading that may occur in the stock after the Registration. Through this Registration and listing process on the OTC Bulletin Board (“Listing”), we are essentially going public without the typical initial public offering procedures which usually include a large selling group of broker-dealers who may provide market support after going public. Thus, we will be required to undertake efforts to develop market recognition for us and support for our shares of Common Stock in the public market. The price and volume for our Common Stock that will develop after the Registration and Listing cannot be assured. The numbers of persons interested in purchasing our Common Stock at or near ask prices at any given time may be relatively small or non-existent. This situation may be attributable to a number of factors, including the fact that we are a small company which is relatively unknown to stock analysts, stock brokers, institutional investors and others in the
14
Table of Contents
investment community that generate or influence sales volume, and that even if we came to the attention of such persons, they tend to be risk averse and would be reluctant to follow an unproven company such as ours or purchase or recommend the purchase of our shares until such time as we became more seasoned and viable. As a consequence, there may be periods of several days, weeks or months when trading activity in our shares is minimal or non-existent, as compared to a seasoned issuer which has a large and steady volume of trading activity that will generally support continuous sales without an adverse effect on share price. We cannot give you any assurance that a broader or more active public trading market for our Common Stock will develop or be sustained, or that current trading levels will be sustained or not diminish. We intend to cause our common stock to trade on the OTC Bulletin Board soon after the effectiveness of the Registration. Our intention is to apply for trading on either the NASDAQ market or the American Stock Exchange at such time that we meet the requirements for listing on those exchanges. There can be no assurance as to when we will qualify for any of these exchanges or that we will ever qualify for these exchanges. While we are trading on the OTC Bulletin Board, the trading volume we will develop may be limited by the fact that many major institutional investment funds, including mutual funds, as well as individual investors follow a policy of not investing in OTC Bulletin Board stocks and certain major brokerage firms restrict their brokers from recommending OTC Bulletin Board stocks because they are considered speculative, volatile and thinly traded.
The market price for our Common Stock may be particularly volatile given our status as a relatively unknown company with a small and thinly traded public float, limited operating history and lack of profits which could lead to wide fluctuations in our share price. The price at which you purchase the Shares may not be indicative of the price of the Common Stock that will prevail in the trading market. You may be unable to sell your Shares at or above your purchase price, which may result in substantial losses to you.
In addition, the market price of our Common Stock could be subject to wide fluctuations in response to:
• | quarterly variations in our revenues and operating expenses; | |
• | announcements of new products or services by us; | |
• | fluctuations in interest rates; | |
• | significant sales of our Common Stock; | |
• | the operating and stock price performance of other companies that investors may deem comparable to us; and | |
• | news reports relating to trends in our markets or general economic conditions. |
The stock markets in general and the market prices for penny stock companies in particular, have experienced volatility that often has been unrelated to the operating performance of such companies. These broad market and industry fluctuations may adversely affect the price of our stock, regardless of our operating performance.
Our operating results may fluctuate significantly, and these fluctuations may cause our Common Stock price to fall.
Our quarterly operating results may fluctuate significantly in the future due to a variety of factors that could affect our revenues or our expenses in any particular quarter. You should not rely on quarter-to-quarter comparisons of our results of operations as an indication of future performance. Factors that may affect our quarterly results include:
• | market acceptance of our products and those of our competitors; | |
• | our ability to attract and retain key personnel; | |
• | development of new designs and technologies; and | |
• | our ability to manage our anticipated growth and expansion. |

Shares eligible for future sale may adversely affect the market.
From time to time after the registration statement has been declared effective, certain of our stockholders may be eligible to sell all or some of their shares of Common Stock by means of ordinary brokerage transactions in the open market pursuant to Rule 144, promulgated under the Securities Act, subject to certain limitations. In general, pursuant to amended Rule 144, non-affiliate stockholders may sell freely after six months subject only to the current public information requirement (which disappears after one year). There are no shares of our common stock held by non-affiliates that will become 144 eligible within three months after our registration statement has been declared effective.
Affiliates may sell after six months subject to the Rule 144 volume, manner of sale (for equity securities), current public information and notice requirements. Any substantial sale of our Common Stock pursuant to Rule 144 or pursuant to any resale prospectus (including sales by investors of securities acquired in connection with this Offering) may have a material adverse effect on the market price of our Common Stock.
We are responsible for the indemnification of our officers and directors, which could result in substantial expenditures.
Our Bylaws provide for the indemnification of our directors, officers, employees, and agents, under certain circumstances, against attorney’s fees and other expenses incurred by them in any litigation to which they become a party arising from their association with or activities on behalf of our company. This indemnification policy could result in substantial expenditures, which we may be unable to recoup.
You will incur immediate and substantial dilution in the net tangible book value of the common stock you purchase, which could adversely affect the market price of our common stock.
Assuming the maximum offering, 75% of the maximum offering, or 60% of the maximum of the offering, this offering will result in an immediate increase to our net tangible book value of $0.16, $0.12, or $0.10 per share, respectively to existing stockholders and an immediate dilution in net tangible book value of $1.57, $1.60, or $1.62 per share respectively to new investors purchasing shares of our common stock in this offering. Accordingly, the investors will bear a great deal of the financial risk associated with our business, while effective control will remain with the principal stockholders. See “Dilution” on page 18.

This offering will end on the date that all of the shares of common stock offered are sold. During this offering we will be able to use funds immediately. No minimum amount of proceeds has been set by us and no legal requirement for a minimum amount is in effect. Since there is no minimum, no escrow account will be established to hold funds until a minimum amount is reached or until the offering period is terminated.
The Selling Stockholders will be able to sell their shares on a continuous basis beyond the Initial Offering Period.
SPECIAL NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This prospectus, including sections entitled “Prospectus Summary,” “Risk Factors,” “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and “Description of Business,” contains forward-looking statements.
Forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements about:
These statements relate to future events or our future financial performance, and involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause our actual results, levels of activity, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. These risks and other factors include those listed under “Risk Factors” and elsewhere in this prospectus. In some cases,

Table of Contents
you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as “may,” “will,” “expects,” “intends,” “plans,” “anticipates,” “believes,” “potential,” “continue” or the negative of these terms or other comparable terminology. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot guarantee future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements. We do not intend to update any of the forward-looking statements after the date of this prospectus or to conform these statements to actual results. Neither the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 nor Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 provides any protection for statements made in this prospectus.
USE OF PROCEEDS
We will not receive any part of the proceeds of the sale of 14,472,198 of the shares that are being offered by the selling stockholders listed in the Selling Stockholder table. We will, however, receive $754,148, $1,402,597, $2,298,701 and $2,597,402 assuming 697,639, 1,298,701, 1,298,701 and 1,298,701 warrants are exercised at the exercise price of $1.081, $1.08, $1.77 and $2.00, respectively per share. Assuming that we sell 25% to 100% of the shares offered by us, our gross proceeds would range from $2,500,000 to $10,000,000. Assuming that the net costs of the offering are $100,000, our net proceeds would range from $2,400,000 to $9,900,000.
We intend to use the net proceeds of this offering for working capital. We may also use the proceeds of this offering, to the extent available, to fund other working capital needs, including SEC compliance and related public company costs.
We have not budgeted all of our expected expenditures, and cannot estimate the amounts to be used for each purpose set forth above. Accordingly, management will have significant flexibility in applying a substantial portion of the net proceeds of this offering.
Our offering is being made on a $10.0 million maximum self-underwritten basis. The table below sets forth the use of proceeds if 100%, 75%, 50% and 25% of the offering is sold with assumed offering expenses of $100,000.

The amounts and timing of our actual expenditures will depend upon numerous factors, including the progress of our efforts. The chart represents our best estimate of our allocation of the net proceeds of this offering based upon current plans and estimates regarding anticipated expenditures. Actual expenditures may vary substantially from these estimates, and we may find it necessary or advisable to reallocate the net proceeds within the above-described uses or for other purposes.
We anticipate, based on management’s current plans and assumptions relating to our operations, that the net proceeds of this offering, if the maximum subscription is achieved, will be sufficient to satisfy our contemplated cash requirements to implement our business plan for our core business through 2008. If the proceeds of the offering are insufficient to fund the implementation of our business plan (due to a change in our plans or a material inaccuracy in our assumptions, or as a result of unanticipated expenses, or other unanticipated problems), we will be required to seek additional financing sooner than currently anticipated in order to proceed with such implementation.
THE FOREGOING REFLECTS ONLY ESTIMATES OF THE USE OF THE PROCEEDS FOR 25% TO 100% OF THE MAXIMUM SUBSCRIPTION. IF LESS THAN 25% OF THE MAXIMUM SUBSCRIPTION IS ATTAINED, THE AMOUNTS WILL BE ADJUSTED IN THE FOLLOWING ORDER OF PRIORITY BASED ON THE AMOUNT OF SUBSCRIPTIONS RECEIVED: 1. LEGAL AND ACCOUNTING COSTS; AND 2. WORKING CAPITAL. ACTUAL EXPENDITURES MAY VARY MATERIALLY FROM THESE ESTIMATES.

DETERMINATION OF OFFERING PRICE
Prior to this offering, there has been no public market for our common stock. The offering price has been arbitrarily determined and does not bear any relationship to our assets, results of operations, or book value, or to any other generally accepted criteria of valuation. The factors considered were:
• | Our relatively short operating history; | |
• | The proceeds to be raised by this offering; | |
• | Our cash requirements; and | |
• | The price that we believe a purchaser is willing to pay for our shares. |
We cannot assure you that an active or orderly trading market will develop for our common stock or that our common stock will trade in the public markets subsequent to this offering at or above the offering price.
The selling stockholders will sell our shares at $2.00 per share until our shares are quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board, and thereafter at prevailing market prices or privately negotiated prices.
DILUTION
Purchasers of our common stock in this offering will experience immediate and substantial dilution in the pro forma net tangible book value of the common stock from the initial public offering price. In our calculations, we have assumed an initial public offering price of $2.00 per share of common stock.
Pro forma net tangible book value per share of common stock is determined by dividing pro forma net tangible book value (total tangible assets less total liabilities) by the pro forma number of shares of common stock outstanding, including the effect of the exercise of all stock warrants registered herin as of June 30, 2008. As of June 30, 2008, the net tangible book value (“NTBV”) of our common stock was approximately $11,990,000, or approximately $0.25 on a per share basis.
As of June 30, 2008, after giving effect to the sale of 5,000,000 shares (maximum offering), 3,750,000 shares (75% of the maximum offering), 2,500,000 shares (50% of the maximum offering) or 1,250,000 shares (25% of the maximum offering) of common stock offered by this prospectus (after deduction of estimated offering expenses of $100,000), our adjusted NTBV would have been approximately $21,890,000, $19,390,000, $16,890,000, or $14,390,000, respectively, or $0.41, $0.37, $0.33, or $0.29 per share of common stock assuming the maximum offering price, 75% of the maximum offering price, 50% of the maximum offering price and 25% of the maximum offering price, respectively.
Assuming the maximum offering, 75% of the maximum offering, 50% of the maximum offering price or the 25% of the maximum offering, this offering will result in an immediate increase in our NTBV, of $0.16, $0.12, $0.08 or $0.04 per share, respectively to existing stockholders and an immediate dilution in NTBV of $1.57, $1.60, $1.63 or $1.63 per share to new investors purchasing shares of our common stock in this offering.
The following table illustrates the effects of this offering on our NTBV and per share dilution to the new investors:

SELLING SECURITY HOLDERS
The following table sets forth the names of the selling stockholders who may sell their shares under this prospectus from time to time. No selling stockholder has, or within the past three years has had, any position, office or other material relationship with us or any of our predecessors or affiliates other than as a result of the ownership of our securities.
The following table also provides certain information with respect to the selling stockholders’ ownership of our securities as of the date of this prospectus, the total number of securities they may sell under this prospectus from time to time, and the number of securities they will own thereafter assuming no other acquisitions or dispositions of our securities. The selling stockholders can offer all, some or none of their securities, thus we have no way of determining the number they will hold after this offering. Therefore, we have prepared the table below on the assumption that the selling stockholders will sell all shares covered by this prospectus.
Some of the selling stockholders may distribute their shares, from time to time, to their limitedand/or general partners or managers, who may sell shares pursuant to this prospectus. Each selling stockholder may also transfer shares owned by him or her by gift and upon any such transfer the done would have the same right of sale as the selling stockholder.
We may amend or supplement this prospectus from time to time to update the disclosure set forth herein. None of the selling stockholders are or were affiliated with registered broker-dealers. See our discussion entitled “Plan of Distribution” for further information regarding the selling stockholders’ method of distribution of these shares.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION
This is our initial public offering. We are registering a total of 24,065,940 shares of our common stock. Of this amount, 5,000,000 shares, referred to in this prospectus as the “Direct Offering”, are being offered by T3 Motion, and 19,065,940 shares are being offered by the selling stockholders. We will receive the proceeds from the shares offered in the Direct Offering. We will not receive the proceeds from the sale of the shares by the selling stockholders.
Direct Offering
We are registering for sale or distribution a maximum of 5,000,000 shares of common stock at the initial offering price of $2.00 per share. There is no minimum number of shares that must be sold in this offering. There will be no escrow account. All money received from this offering will be immediately used by us.
The Direct Offering shall commence upon effectiveness of this registration statement and will end whenever all of the shares have been sold or twelve months after the date of effectiveness, whichever comes first. All sales of the shares will be effected by our officers or other representatives (who fall within the requirements ofRule 3a4-1 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934), who will not receive any special compensation in connection with such sale or distribution.
Generally speaking,Rule 3a4-1 provides an exemption from the broker/dealer registration requirements of the 1934 Act for associated persons of an issuer. No one has made any commitment to purchase any or all of the shares being offered. Rather, the officers and directors will use their best efforts to find purchasers for the shares. We cannot predict how many shares, if any, will successfully be sold.
Ki Nam, our Chief Executive Officer is responsible for the sale of the securities on behalf of T3 Motion. Mr. Nam shall not be compensated in connection with his participation by the payment of commissions or other remuneration based either directly or indirectly on transactions in our securities. Neither Mr. Nam, nor any other of our officers and directors associated with offering and selling the shares are considered associated persons of any broker or dealer.
Our officers meet all of the following conditions:
• | They primarily perform, or intend to primarily perform at the end of the offering, substantial duties for or on behalf of T3 Motion otherwise than in connection with the sale and distribution of the shares; | |
• | They were not a broker or dealer, or an associated person of a broker or dealer, within the preceding twelve months; and | |
• | The officers do not participate in selling and offering of securities for any issuer more than once every twelve months other than in reliance certain exemptions provided for underRule 3a4-1(a)(4)(i) and (a)(4)(iii), except that for securities issued pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act 1933, the twelve months shall begin with the last sale of any security included within one Rule 415 registration. |
In the past, we have received unsolicited indications of interest in T3 Motion from persons familiar with us. Our officers will deliver prospectuses to these individuals and to others who they believe might have interest in purchasing all or part of this offering. We also may retain licensed broker/dealers to assist us in the offering and selling of shares, if we deem such to be in our best interest. At this time we do not have any
23
Table of Contents
commitments, agreements or understandings with any broker/dealers. The maximum underwriting discount and commission we are willing to pay to engage broker/dealers are eight percent (8%).
In the event we retain any broker/dealers to assist in the offering and selling of units we will update this prospectus accordingly.
Purchasers of shares either in this offering or in any subsequent trading market that may develop must be residents of states in which the securities are registered or exempt from registration. Some of the exemptions are self-executing, that is to say that there are no notice or filing requirements, and compliance with the conditions of the exemption render exemption applicable.
Selling Stockholders Offering
Each Selling Stockholder (the “Selling Stockholders”) of the common stock and any of their pledges, assignees andsuccessors-in-interest may, from time to time, sell any or all of their shares of common stock on the OTC Bulletin Board or any other stock exchange, market or trading facility on which the shares are traded or in private transactions. These sales may be at fixed or negotiated prices. A Selling Stockholder may use any one or more of the following methods when selling shares:
• | ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker-dealer solicits purchasers; | |
• | block trades in which the broker-dealer will attempt to sell the shares as agent but may position and resell a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction; | |
• | purchases by a broker-dealer as principal and resale by the broker-dealer for its account; | |
• | an exchange distribution in accordance with the rules of the applicable exchange; | |
• | privately negotiated transactions; | |
• | settlement of short sales entered into after the effective date of the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part; | |
• | broker-dealers may agree with the Selling Stockholders to sell a specified number of such shares at a stipulated price per share; | |
• | through the writing or settlement of options or other hedging transactions, whether through an options exchange or otherwise; | |
• | a combination of any such methods of sale; or | |
• | any other method permitted pursuant to applicable law. |
The Selling Stockholders may also sell shares under Rule 144 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), if available, rather than under this prospectus.
Broker-dealers engaged by the Selling Stockholders may arrange for other brokers-dealers to participate in sales. Broker-dealers may receive commissions or discounts from the Selling Stockholders (or, if any broker-dealer acts as agent for the purchaser of shares, from the purchaser) in amounts to be negotiated, but, except as set forth in a supplement to this Prospectus, in the case of an agency transaction not in excess of a customary brokerage commission in compliance with FINRA Rule 2440; and in the case of a principal transaction a markup or markdown in compliance with FINRA IM-2440.
In connection with the sale of the common stock or interests therein, the Selling Stockholders may enter into hedging transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions, which may in turn engage in short sales of the common stock in the course of hedging the positions they assume. The Selling Stockholders may also sell shares of the common stock short and deliver these securities to close out their short positions, or loan or pledge the common stock to broker-dealers that in turn may sell these securities. The Selling Stockholders may also enter into option or other transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions or the creation of one or more derivative securities which require the delivery to such broker-dealer or other

financial institution of shares offered by this prospectus, which shares such broker-dealer or other financial institution may resell pursuant to this prospectus (as supplemented or amended to reflect such transaction).
The Selling Stockholders and any broker-dealers or agents that are involved in selling the shares may be deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of the Securities Act in connection with such sales. In such event, any commissions received by such broker-dealers or agents and any profit on the resale of the shares purchased by them may be deemed to be underwriting commissions or discounts under the Securities Act. Each Selling Stockholder has informed the Company that it does not have any written or oral agreement or understanding, directly or indirectly, with any person to distribute the Common Stock. In no event shall any broker-dealer receive fees, commissions and markups which, in the aggregate, would exceed eight percent (8%).
The Company is required to pay certain fees and expenses incurred by the Company incident to the registration of the shares. The Company has agreed to indemnify the Selling Stockholders against certain losses, claims, damages and liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act.
Because Selling Stockholders may be deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of the Securities Act, they will be subject to the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act including Rule 172 thereunder. In addition, any securities covered by this prospectus which qualify for sale pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act may be sold under Rule 144 rather than under this prospectus. There is no underwriter or coordinating broker acting in connection with the proposed sale of the resale shares by the Selling Stockholders.
We agreed to keep this prospectus effective until the earlier of (i) the date on which the shares may be resold by the Selling Stockholders without registration and without regard to any volume or manner-of-sale limitations by reason of Rule 144, without the requirement for the Company to be in compliance with the current public information under Rule 144 under the Securities Act or any other rule of similar effect or (ii) all of the shares have been sold pursuant to this prospectus or Rule 144 under the Securities Act or any other rule of similar effect. The resale shares will be sold only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers if required under applicable state securities laws. In addition, in certain states, the resale shares may not be sold unless they have been registered or qualified for sale in the applicable state or an exemption from the registration or qualification requirement is available and is complied with.
Under applicable rules and regulations under the Exchange Act, any person engaged in the distribution of the resale shares may not simultaneously engage in market making activities with respect to the common stock for the applicable restricted period, as defined in Regulation M, prior to the commencement of the distribution. In addition, the Selling Stockholders will be subject to applicable provisions of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations thereunder, including Regulation M, which may limit the timing of purchases and sales of shares of the common stock by the Selling Stockholders or any other person. We will make copies of this prospectus available to the Selling Stockholders and have informed them of the need to deliver a copy of this prospectus to each purchaser at or prior to the time of the sale (including by compliance with Rule 172 under the Securities Act).

DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
Overview
T3 Motion, Inc. (“T3 Motion”) was incorporated in the State of Delaware on March 16, 2006. T3 Motion is principally engaged in the designing, manufacturing and marketing of personal mobility vehicles powered by electric motors.
T3 Motion’s initial product is the T3, astand-up vehicle designed specifically for public and private security personnel that is powered by a quiet zero-gas emission electric motor. After three years of development, T3 Motion delivered to market the first T3 vehicles in early 2007. T3 Motion plans to introduce a series of product variants based on the initial T3 vehicle and the modularity of the sub-systems they have created.
The T3 vehicle design has been highly recognized for professional-based applications. Its iconic look has garnered international acclaim such as the Innovation Award for Best Vehicle at the 2007 International Association of Chiefs of Police (IACP) Convention in New Orleans, Louisiana. Additionally, the T3 was honored at the International Spark Design Awards in Pasadena, California in 2007. The T3 has been featured

Table of Contents
on local, national and international television and print media being deployed by professionals from law enforcement and private security demonstrating the command presence coupled with the vehicle’s approachability by the public. In addition to being an effective performance-based patrol vehicle, it also aids in public relations by enabling two way conversations between the professional operator and the general public. This unique dynamic allows officers and personnel to more effectively fulfill Community-Oriented Policing (COPS) initiatives that have become prevalent since 9/11.
T3 Motion is headquartered in Costa Mesa, California and has a sales office in the United Kingdom. It also has sales distributors in South Korea and the People’s Republic of China.
Market and Industry Overview
The personal mobility market has experienced growth in the past several years. Personal transportation in the United States has become a necessity with law enforcement and government agencies, university campuses, airports, shopping malls, events/promotions, military/government, and industrial areas. Similar needs exist in Europe, Asia, and Latin America.
Adding to the substantial market for security in the post-9/11 world, increasing awareness of global warming is creating a rapidly growing market for clean technologies. As a zero-gas emissions electric vehicle, the T3 is positioned to take advantage of this trend.
The increase in homeland security spending since 9/11 has been substantial. The Department of Homeland Security Grant Program is scheduled to award $1.6 billion to municipalities for equipment acquisition and emergency preparedness in 2007. We have an opportunity to capture a substantial portion of this market created by police department purchases of police cars, associated upgrades, bicycles and other security equipment purchased with funds from the Homeland Security.
Below is the list of specific markets that we believe will continue to experience growth and we intend to serve.
Law Enforcement. As police and sheriff’s departments nationwide continue to deploy more law enforcement personnel, T3 Motion will continue to focus on serving this market. According to the U.S. Bureau of Justice, as of September 2004 there were 1,076,897 full-time state and local law enforcement personnel. This is an increase of 5.6% from 2000.
College and University Campuses. According to the U.S. Census Bureau, Statistics Abstract of the United States: 2002 (No. 257. Higher Education-Summary: 1970 to 1999), there were more than 4,000 higher education institutions in the United States in 1999.
High Schools. According to the National Center for Educational Statistics: 2005, there are over 18,000 public high schools in the U.S. According to the 2004 National School Resource Officers Survey, School crimes, violence and safety offenses remain significant issues affecting our education system.
Military and Government Agencies. According to Global Research, July 2007, there are 6000 military basesand/or military warehouses. At least 1000 are believed to be bases and/ or military installations of which 700 to 800 are located worldwide that the US operates or controls. With total military personnel deployed in the US and US overseas territories of about 1.4 million, the need to provide security and other activities, including the need to move people within large areas is significant. The U.S. Department of Homeland Security devotes a significant number of personnel to border and transportation security, emergency preparedness, science and technology and information analysis and management. The Department of Homeland Security uses T3s in the inspection of cargo at industrial plants and airports, including the Los Angeles International Airport and the Long Beach Port.
Airports. According to the U.S. Department of Transportation, in 2003 there were 19,581 airports in the US. Of these, there were 5,286 public use airports and 14,295 private use airports. Further, there were 628 certified airports (Certified airports serve air-carriers operations with aircraft seating more than 30 passengers). The T3 is used for security and by airport personnel both inside and outside the terminal
27
Table of Contents
buildings at airports. In addition, we anticipate the need for the T3 for ground crew, airline personnel and customer service staff.
Port Security. In the post-9/11 era, according to the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), February 2006 press release, funding for port security has increased more than 700%. The Department of Homeland Security spent over $1.6 billion in FY 2005 for port security. Additionally, In FY 2006 the DHS allocated over $168M for the Port Security Grant Program and in FY 2007 it was over $202M with an additional $110M supplemental funding.
Private Security Companies. According to the National Association of Security Companies (NASCO) 2006 Private Security Fact Sheet, private security contracting is an approximately $13 billion industry in the U.S. with 11,000 to 15,000 companies employing 1.2 million contract security officers. Contract security officers are increasingly protecting military bases and installations across the country and around the world, and are required to be first responders to any incident. The President’s National Strategy for Homeland Security estimates that these private security officers protect 85% of the country’s infrastructure, which, according to the National Association of Security Companies, makes private security companies a top funding priority for the federal government.
Manufacturing and Industrial Firms. According to the 2005 US Census Bureau report there are 333,460 manufacturing establishments in the US with 115,715 establishments that have more than 100 employees. We believe that the need for transportation of people, parts, or products within or around these establishments is an ideal application for the T3. Currently we believe that maintenance and warehousing personnel use golf carts and bicycles. Most large manufacturing and industrial facilities use utility vehicles, golf carts and bicycles for transportation, maintenance and warehousing. We expect some of these vehicles could be replaced with our products.
Shopping Malls and Parking Patrol. According to the CoStar National Research Bureau Shopping Center Database and Statistical Model 2005 there are approximately 48,000 shopping malls in the U.S. covering more than six billion square feet of space. The malls are patrolled by private security companies. In addition to malls, there are numerous parking structures throughout the U.S. that are regularly patrolled.
Our Operations
Our principal executive offices and operations facility is located in Costa Mesa, California. Our main corporate headquarters facility located at 2990 Airway Avenue, Suite A is an approximate 34,000 square foot facility that is home to the executive staff and sales staff and is our main operational and manufacturing location. The facility is equipped with multiple production lines capable of producing up to 800 T3 vehicles per month. Located directly across the street at 2975 Airway is our 14,000 square feet warehouse and R&D center that is fully equipped with all of the necessary machines and equipment needed to design and build development products.
We manufacture our T3s at our headquarters. Our raw materials are sourced from various suppliers, both national and international. Currently, our electronics and wire harness assembly manufacturing, embedded digital processing application development and electronics hardware and software development occur at our headquarters and operations center. Final assembly, testing, warehousing, quality control and shipping take place at our U.S. operations center. We are, however, developing a multi-source supply chain that we anticipate will provide a low-cost labor structure and sub-assembly infrastructure supporting final assembly in the U.S. The supply chain will include materials sourcing and subassembly operations from sources in China, South Korea and Mexico. These components will be shipped to our operations facility in Costa Mesa for final assembly, test, inspection, and shipments to our customers. We expect to establish this multiple source supplier base by the end of 2008 to will allow us to utilize both current US based suppliers and newly acquired global suppliers to reduce the risks of our existing single sourced components and reduce product costs.
Our sales and marketing is located at our headquarters and currently targets opportunities in the Western, Central and Eastern United States. The sales and marketing team is beginning to expand globally into Europe, Asia and the Middle East. We have agreements with numerous U.S. regional distributors and manufacturing

Growth Strategies and Marketing
Growth Strategies
The core value of our brand and mission is to become the leader in enabling efficient, clean personal mobility and to continue providing products that are economical, functional, safe, dependable and meet the needs of the professional end user. We have an experienced management team with extensive experience in product design, development, innovation, operations, sales and marketing to execute the following growth strategies:
• | Increase our leading presence in law enforcement. We intend to build on our reputation as the personal mobility vehicle of choice by aggressively marketing towards the law enforcement community through trade shows and direct and indirect sales. We have identified the key accounts within our core market segments of Law Enforcement, Government and Security/Private Industry that will achieve our primary sales goals and objectives, including driving key regional market penetration, product recognition and brand presence. | |
• | Capitalize on broader security opportunities. Our success in the law enforcement market has had a viral effect and led to significant inbound demand for the T3 from other security markets, which hold equal, if not greater, potential. These markets include airports, events/promotions, government/military, shopping malls and university campuses. We believe we will generate significant interest in these markets with potentially significant orders over the next 12 to 24 months. | |
• | Expand the T3 product line to address broader enterprise markets. We intend to leverage the modularity of our sub-systems to configure additional vehicles that address the needs of the broader enterprise markets. These needs include delivery services, personnel transportation and personal mobility. | |
• | Leverage brand into the consumer market. As we extend our leading position in the law enforcement and security markets and continue to develop our brand name and reputation, we intend to leverage our strong brand to enter the consumer market for personal transportation. We have a robust product roadmap of consumer-focused vehicles that will utilize the same low-cost, high-quality component sourcing and sub-assembly. |
In order to meet our growth objectives, we are taking the following measures:
• | Execute key customer trials. We have successfully completed field trials in fiscal year 2007 with more than 30 customers. As a result we have sold over 500 vehicles and shipped over 200 vehicles and have garnered interest from numerous customers for larger orders. Through our trials, we have fostered strategic relationships with influential customers across all market segments. For example, the use of the T3 Series vehicle by early adopters of the technology has led to interest from new emerging markets such as Emergency Medical Services, the Correctional Industry, Utility/Maintenance applications and high-profile/high-visibility national security accounts. By following our field trial strategy, management believes we will see continued success in both our core and emerging markets. |
• | Grow our partnering relationships with key security companies. Currently, we have built relationships with national private security providers. In order to see continued success, we have marketed the T3 Series as an integrated security solution. This internal sales strategy has positioned our T3 Series as a premier solution due to its economical and environmentally-friendly benefits. In particular, it has led to additional trials of our T3 Series products with customers of these security providers. This strategy has lead to additional market penetration within the markets for property management, entertainment/sporting venues, retail department store chains and high-profile venues. |
• | Expand our distributors and manufacturing representatives nationwide. T3 Motion has structured its distributors and manufacturing representatives’ base into six geographic regions within the United |
31
Table of Contents
States as well as Canada and Mexico. Our sales force has a comprehensive qualification process that identified the top performing representative firms. Subsequently, we have put under contract the leading representative companies. Our coverage is approximately 80% of the key North American markets. We intend to have the remaining territories set up by the second quarter of 2008. |
• | Expand our marketing and sales efforts globally. We have positioned global sales offices in four geographic locations (US, Korea, China, and Europe). Included in our global expansion plans, we are developing service solutions for each geographic region to maintain our level of customer service. |
• | Expand our products. We intend to add accessories to our T3 Series such as firearm/rifle mounts, trailer, license plate identification system, vehicle camera, helmets, clothing, first aid kits, emergency response kits, mirrors, lighting, etc. We plan to add additional vehicle lines. Using the core subsystems of our T3 Series, we plan to launch different versions of products targeting fleet usage in delivery and utility private industry markets. The G3 model is currently under development with an expected release to market in late 2009. |
• | Leveraging T3 Brand. We plan to leverage the strength of our brand and distribution channels to increase revenue opportunities to offer related products such as license plate recognition, global position tracking (commonly known as “GPS”), asset tracking, defibrillators, ballistic shields, tires, trailers and other related products. |
• | Increase our presence in high profile venues. Our product has been present in some high profile venues such as the 2008 and 2007 Super Bowl, the 2008 Daytona 500 and the 2008 NBA finals. We plan to continue to target high profile venues in order to increase our brand awareness. |
• | Increase residual income on current customer base. We will offer additional services and products to our growing customer base such as extended warranties and service contracts for T3 Series after warranty periods have expired. |
Marketing and Distribution
We market and sell our T3 product through our direct sales force located at our headquarters in Costa Mesa, California. In 2007, our marketing and sales targets were focused primarily on opportunities in the Western, Central and Eastern United States. In 2008, we will begin expanding our markets globally into Europe, Asia and the Middle East. We have agreements with numerous U.S. regional distributors and manufacturing representative companies, adding substantially to our direct sales force. We also attend and provide exhibits at two trade shows per geographic market per year and advertise quarterly in trade journals.
Early high profile and priority sales were made by initiating field trials that typically utilized one or two vehicles and lasted from one to two weeks. These field trials usually lead to initial product orders within 60 to 90 days. We benefit from sales on both regional outreach and a referral basis, which has a significant multiplicative effect on sales. Additionally, private security organizations are now placing significant orders based on the endorsement of the law enforcement community. Typical initial orders have ranged in size from a single unit to ten units and, for larger customers, have led to larger subsequent orders within three to six months. Our marketing efforts and the interest our products have generated have led to numerous media pieces on a regional, national and international scale, ranging from news articles to television spots on television networks such as ABC, CBS, Fox, NBC, CNN, the BBC, Sky News and other local television stations.
We have a procedure for establishing distribution channels for each geographic region. Among other things, distributors should have sales experience to law enforcement agencies and security providers. Each distributor must have service capability for the T3 Series.
Our Suppliers
Today over 70% of our suppliers are local suppliers who provide products and services to low volume early stage development companies. This was required in the early stage to quickly react to design changes; however, as the vehicle design has become stable and sales volumes have increased significantly, we have
32
Table of Contents
begun our transition to incorporate a global supply chain. As we move into 2008, we have made significant progress in establishing relationships with suppliers who service volume production stage companies. In addition, investments are being made in production tooling that will yield consistent high quality and lower cost parts designed to T3 Motion’s specifications. In 2008, T3 Motion plans to implement its multi-source supply chain strategy in working directly with established factories within the automotive and motorcycle industry. The supply chain will include materials sourcing and subassembly operations from sources in China, South Korea and Mexico. These components will be shipped to our operations facility in Costa Mesa for final assembly, test, inspection, and shipments to our customers. We expect to establish this multiple source supplier base by the end of 2008 to will allow us to utilize both current US based suppliers and newly acquired global suppliers to reduce the risks of our existing single sourced components and reduce product costs.
Employees
Prior to January 1, 2008, all employees were employed and all salary and bonuses were paid by My Ventures, LLC, a company wholly owned by Ki Nam, our CEO. As of January 1, 2008, Mr. Nam and T3 Motion transferred all employees from My Ventures, LLC to T3 Motion, Inc.’s payroll. Prior to January 1, 2008, we reimbursed My Ventures, LLC at cost for all payroll costs incurred. At December 31, 2007, My Ventures, LLC had 48 employees, all of which were full-time employees. None of these employees are represented by any collective bargaining agreements. We have not experienced a work stoppage. Management believes that our relations with our employees are good.

Current Customers
Our marketing focus includes locations that have large areas to patrol such as law enforcement, airports, hospitals, universities, security companies, property management companies and commercial retail companies. We have a $2.2 million customer purchase commitments for more units to be delivered during 2008.
Competition
There are over eight leading companies engaged in personal mobility vehicle design, manufacturing and marketing (such as Segway, American Chariot, California Motors-Ride Vehicles, Gorilla Vehicles and others).
Some of our competitors are larger than we are and may have significantly greater name recognition and financial, sales and marketing, technical, manufacturing and other resources. These competitors may also be able to respond rapidly to new or emerging technologies and changes in customer requirements or devote greater resources to the development, promotion and sale of their products. Our competitors may enter our existing or future markets with products that may provide additional features or that may be introduced earlier than our products.
We attempt to differentiate our company from our competitors by working to provide superior customer service and developing products with appealing functions targeted to our core markets of professional end users in law enforcement and private security. We cannot assure you that we will be able to compete successfully with our existing or new competitors. If we fail to compete successfully against current or future competitors, our business could suffer.
T3 Motion values its customer inputs as it is a customer driven company. Entering into any negotiation T3 follows a fundamental approach using one of three core customer interests.
• | T3 evaluates the available budget from its customer, building the value of the product rather than price. For example, one packaged T3 is able to fulfill the client’s needs for a multi-shift deployment related to competing products. | |
• | T3 maintains a manufacturing process that holds lead times to a 6-8 weeks timeframe. | |
• | T3 has an in-field swappable power system that enables our clients to operate vehicles without downtime for charging. The sustainable engineering and design was specifically tailored for the professional end user in law enforcement and private security. |

Involvement in Certain Legal Proceedings
To the best of the Company’s knowledge, none of the officers and directors appointed have been convicted in a criminal proceeding, excluding traffic violations or similar misdemeanors, nor have they been a party to any judicial or administrative proceeding during the past five years, except for matters that were dismissed without sanction or settlement, that resulted in a judgment, decree or final order enjoining the person from future violations of, or prohibiting activities subject to, federal or state securities laws, or a finding of any violation of federal or state securities laws.
DIRECTOR AND EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION
Overview
The following Compensation Discussion and Analysis describes the material elements of compensation for our executive officers identified under the “Executive Compensation — Summary Compensation Table” (the “Named Executive Officers”). As more fully described under “Compensation Committee” below, the Compensation Committee of the T3 Motion, Inc. Board (the “Compensation Committee”) reviews and makes all decisions for our executive compensation program, including: establishing salaries and reviewing benefit programs for the Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and each of our other Named Executive Officers (“NEOs”); reviewing, approving, recommending and administering our annual incentive compensation and stock option plans for employees and other compensation plans; and advising T3’s Board of Directors and making recommendations with respect to plans that require Board approval. Additionally, the Compensation Committee reviews and coordinates annually with the Nominating/Corporate Governance Committee of T3’s Board of Directors with respect to the compensation of our directors.
Compensation Committee
Committee Members and Independence
During 2007, the Compensation Committee of T3 consisted of all of the board of directors. As a privately held company, the T3 Board is not required to have a majority of its directors be independent nor is the Compensation Committee required to be composed of independent directors. We believe that Mr. Healy and Mr. Snowden would be deemed independent directors within the definition of independence used in the Rules of the New York Stock Exchange.
Role of the Compensation Committee in Establishing Compensation
The Compensation Committee establishes and maintains our executive compensation program through internal evaluations of performance, consultation with various executive compensation consultants and analysis of compensation practices in industries where we compete for experienced senior management. The Compensation Committee reviews our compensation programs and philosophy regularly, particularly in connection with its evaluation and approval of changes in the compensation structure for a given year. The Compensation Committee did not meet during 2007; items were approved by written consent.
Objectives of Our Compensation Program
Our executive compensation program is designed to attract, retain, incentivize and reward talented senior management who can contribute to our growth and success and thereby build value for our stockholders over the long-term. We believe that an effective executive compensation program is critical to our long-term success. By having an executive compensation program that is competitive with the marketplace and focused on driving sustained superior performance, we believe we can align the interests of our executive officers with the interests of shareholders and reward our executive officers for successfully improving shareholder returns. We have developed compensation programs with the following objectives:
• | attract and retain talented senior management to ensure our future success; and |
37
Table of Contents
• | structure a compensation program that appropriately rewards our executive officers for their skills and contributions to our company based on competitive market practice. |
The Elements of Our Executive Compensation Program
The elements of our executive compensation program are as follows:
• | Base salary; | |
• | Annual incentive compensation (discretionary bonuses); | |
• | Equity-based awards; | |
• | Perquisites; and | |
• | Other benefits. |
Base Salary. Base salaries provide a fixed form of compensation designed to reward our executive officer’s core competence in his or her role. The Compensation Committee determines base salaries by taking into consideration such factors as competitive industry salaries; the nature of the position; the contribution and experience of the officers; and the length of service. The CEO makes salary recommendations for executive officers other than him and reviews such recommendations with the Compensation Committee.
Annual Incentive Compensation. Discretionary annual incentive compensation is provided to incentivize our executive officers, in any particular year, to pursue particular objectives that the Compensation Committee believes are consistent with the overall goals and long-term strategic direction that the T3 Board has set for our company.
Equity Compensation. On May 15, 2007, the Board of Directors adopted the 2007 Stock Incentive Plan (the “2007 Plan”) effective August 15, 2007. The purpose of the 2007 Plan was to promote the interests of us and our shareholders by enabling selected key employees to participate in our long-term growth by receiving the opportunity to acquire shares of T3 common stock and to provide for additional compensation based on appreciation in T3 common stock. The 2007 Plan provides for the grant of stock options to key employees, directors and consultants, including the executive officers who provide services to T3 Motion or any of its parents or subsidiaries. Under the 2007 Plan, stock options will vest over a specified period of time (typically four years) contingent solely upon the awardees’ continued employment with us. The 2007 Plan includes certain forfeiture provisions upon an awardees’ separation from service with us. The Compensation Committee determines whether to grant options and the exercise price of the options granted. The Committee has broad discretion in determining the terms, restrictions and conditions of each award granted under the 2007 Plan and no option may be exercisable after ten years from the date of grant. All option awards granted under the 2007 Plan will have an exercise price equal to the fair market value of T3’s common stock on the date of grant. Fair market value is defined under the 2007 Plan to be the closing market price of a share of T3’s common stock on the date of grant or if no market price is available, the amount as determined by the Board of Directors subject to confirmation by an outside appraiser. The Compensation Committee retains the discretion to make awards at any time in connection with the initial hiring of a new employee, for retention purposes, or otherwise. We do not have any program, plan or practice to time annual or ad hoc grants of stock options or other equity-based awards in coordination with the release of material non-public information or otherwise. Any or all administrative functions may be delegated by the Board to a committee of the Board. The Option Plan provides that in the event of a merger of T3 Motion with or into another corporation or of a “change in control” of T3 Motion, including the sale of all or substantially all of T3 Motion’s assets, and certain other events, the Board of Directors may, in its discretion, provide for the assumption or substitution of, or adjustment to, each outstanding award and accelerate the vesting of options.
The Option Plan will terminate on the earlier of (i) May 15, 2017, (ii) the date on which all 7,450,000 shares available for issuance under the Option Plan is issued, or (iii) the termination of all outstanding options in connection with a merger with or into another corporation or a “change in control” of T3 Motion.

Table of Contents
The Board of Directors may generally amend or terminate the Option Plan as determined to be advisable. No such amendment or modification, however, may adversely affect the rights and obligations with respect to options or unvested stock issuances at the time outstanding under the Option Plan unless the optionee or the participant consents to such amendment or modification. Also, certain amendments may require shareholder approval pursuant to applicable laws and regulations.
The above-referenced stock option grants were issued without registration in reliance upon the exemption afforded by Section 4(2) and Rule 701 of the Act based on certain representations made to us by the recipients.
The 2007 Plan may be amended or terminated by the Board, at any time. However, an amendment that would impair the rights of a recipient of any outstanding award will not be valid with respect to such award without the recipient’s consent. A total of 7,450,000 shares of T3 common stock are authorized for issuance under the 2007 Plan. For the year ended December 31, 2007, there were 5,391,500 options granted under the 2007 Plan.
Perquisites. We provide perquisites to our executive officers that we believe are reasonable and consistent with the perquisites that would be available to them at companies with whom we compete for experienced senior management. Perquisites include automobile allowances.
Other Benefits. Other benefits to the executive officers include a 401(k) plan. We maintain a 401(k) plan for our employees, including our NEOs, because we wish to encourage our employees to save some percentage of their cash compensation, through voluntary deferrals, for their eventual retirement. We do not offer employer matching with our 401(k) plan.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following discussion and analysis of the results of operations and financial condition of the Company for the year ended December 31, 2007 and the period from March 16, 2006 (date of inception) through December 31, 2006 and for the three months ended March 31, 2008 and 2007 and should be read in conjunction with T3 Motion’s consolidated financial statements, and the notes to those consolidate financial statements that are included elsewhere in this Prospectus. Our discussion includes forward-looking statements based upon current expectations that involve risks and uncertainties, such as our plans, objectives, expectations and intentions. Actual results and the timing of events could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of a number of factors, including those set forth under the Risk Factors, Cautionary Notice Regarding Forward-Looking Statements and Business sections in this Prospectus. We use words such as “anticipate,” “estimate,” “plan,” “project,” “continuing,” “ongoing,” “expect,” “believe,” “intend,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “could,” and similar expressions to identify forward-looking statements.
OVERVIEW
T3 Motion, Inc. (the “Company”) was organized on March 16, 2006, under the laws of the state of Delaware. The Company develops and manufactures T3 vehicles, which are electric three-wheelstand-up vehicles that are directly targeted to the public safety and private security markets. T3 vehicles have been designed to tackle a host of daily professional functions, from community policing to patrolling of airports, military bases, campuses, malls, public event venues and other high-density areas. The Company exited its development stage in January 2007 when it began generating revenues from selling its vehicles.
Effective December 15, 2006, the Company declared a 30,000-to-1 stock split of the Company’s common stock. All share amounts have been adjusted throughout the financial statements for this stock split.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES
Our management’s discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based on our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements as well as the reported net sales and expenses during the reporting periods. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates and assumptions. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other factors that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
While our significant accounting policies are more fully described in Note 2 to our consolidated financial statements, we believe that the following accounting policies are the most critical to aid you in fully understanding and evaluating this management discussion and analysis:
Concentrations of Credit Risk
Cash
The Company maintains its cash balances at financial institutions that are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) up to $100,000. From time to time, the Company’s cash balances exceed the amount insured by the FDIC. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts and believes it is not exposed to any significant credit risk related to these deposits.
48
Table of Contents
Receivables
The Company performs periodic evaluations of its customers and maintains allowances for potential credit losses as deemed necessary. The Company generally does not require collateral to secure its accounts receivable. The Company estimates credit losses based on management’s evaluation of historical bad debts, customer concentrations, customer credit-worthiness, current economic trends and changes in customer payment patterns when evaluating the adequacy of the allowance for doubtful accounts.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers cash equivalents to be all short-term investments that have an initial maturity of 90 days or less and are not restricted. We invest our cash in short-term money market accounts.
Concentration of Risk
As of March 31, 2008, five customers accounted for approximately 58% of total accounts receivable and two customers accounted for approximately 26% of total revenues. As of March 31, 2007, one customer accounted for approximately 35% of total revenues.
As of December 31, 2007, two customers accounted for approximately 35% of total accounts receivable and no one customer accounted for more than 10% of total revenues.
Inventories
Inventories, which consist of raw materials, finished goods andwork-in-process, are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value, with cost being determined by the average-cost method, which approximates thefirst-in, first-out method. At each balance sheet date, the Company evaluates its ending inventories for excess quantities and obsolescence. This evaluation primarily includes an analysis of forecasted demand in relation to the inventory on hand, among consideration of other factors. Based upon the evaluation, provisions are made to reduce excess or obsolete inventories to their estimated net realizable values. Once established, write-downs are considered permanent adjustments to the cost basis of the excess or obsolete inventories.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are stated at cost, and are being depreciated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets, ranging from three to five years. Leasehold improvements are recorded at cost and amortized on a straight-line basis over the shorter of their estimated lives or the remaining lease term. Significant renewals and betterments are capitalized. Maintenance and repairs that do not improve or extend the lives of the respective assets are expensed. At the time property and equipment are retired or otherwise disposed of, the cost and related accumulated depreciation accounts are relieved of the applicable amounts. Gains or losses from retirements or sales are reflected in the consolidated statement of operations.
Intangible Property
The Company’s intangible asset consists of a data license agreement and is amortized on a straight-line basis over two years. All identified intangible assets are classified within other long-term assets on the consolidated balance sheets. The Company will perform an annual review of its identified intangible assets to determine if facts and circumstances exist which indicate that the useful life is shorter than originally estimated or that the carrying amount of assets may not be recoverable. If such facts and circumstances do exist, the Company assesses the recoverability of identified intangible assets b y comparing the projected undiscounted net cash flows associated with the related asset or group of assets over their remaining lives against their respective carrying amounts. Impairment, if any, is based on the excess of the carrying amount over the fair value of those assets.
49
Table of Contents
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
The Company accounts for its long-lived assets in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 144,Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets. SFAS No. 144 requires that long-lived assets be reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the historical cost carrying value of an asset may no longer be appropriate. The Company assesses recoverability of the carrying value of an asset by estimating the future net cash flows expected to result from the asset, including eventual disposition. If the future net cash flows are less than the carrying value of the asset, an impairment loss is recorded equal to the difference between the asset’s carrying value and fair value or disposable value. As of December 31, 2007 and 2006, the Company does not believe there has been any impairment of its long-lived assets. There can be no assurance, however, that market conditions will not change or demand for the Company’s products will continue, which could result in impairment of long-lived assets in the future.
Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenues in accordance with the Securities and Exchange Commission’s Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) No. 104,Revenue Recognition. Under the provisions of SAB No. 104, the Company recognizes revenues when there is persuasive evidence of an arrangement, product delivery and acceptance have occurred, the sales price is fixed or determinable and collectability of the resulting receivable is reasonably assured.
For all sales, the Company uses a binding purchase order as evidence of an arrangement. Delivery occurs when goods are shipped for customers with FOB Shipping Point terms. Shipping documents are used to verify delivery and customer acceptance. The Company assesses whether the sales price is fixed or determinable based on the payment terms associated with the transaction and whether the sales price is subject to refund. The Company offers a standard product warranty to its customers for defects in materials and workmanship for a period of one year or 2,500 miles, whichever comes first, and has no other post-shipment obligations. The Company assesses collectability based on the creditworthiness of the customer as determined by evaluations and the customer’s payment history.
All amounts billed to customers related to shipping and handling are classified as net sales, while all costs incurred by the Company for shipping and handling are classified as cost of sales.
The Company does not enter into contracts that require fixed pricing beyond the term of the purchase order. All sales via distributor agreements are accompanied with a purchase order. Further, the Company does not allow returns of unsold items.
The Company has executed various distribution agreements whereby the distributors agreed to purchase T3 vehicle packages (one T3, two power modules, and one charger per package). The terms of the agreements have monthly delivery schedules of the vehicles to be sold through the distributors in specified geographic regions. Under the terms of the agreements, the distributor takes ownership of the vehicles and the Company deems the items sold at delivery to the distributor.
Stock Based Compensation
The Company maintains a stock option plan and records expenses attributable to the Company’s stock option plan. Effective March 16, 2006 (date of inception), the Company adopted the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (“FASB”) SFAS No. 123(R) “Share-Based Payment” (“SFAS 123(R)”) using the modified prospective method, in which compensation cost was recognized beginning with the effective date (a) based on the requirements of SFAS 123(R) for all share-based payments granted after the effective date and (b) based on the requirements of SFAS 123(R) for all awards granted to employees prior to the effective date of SFAS 123(R) that remain unvested on the effective date.
With the adoption of SFAS 123(R), the Company elected to amortize stock-based compensation for awards granted on or after the adoption of SFAS 123(R) on March 16, 2006 (date of inception) on a straight-line basis over the requisite service (vesting) period for the entire award.
50
Table of Contents
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes under the provisions of SFAS No. 109,Accounting for Income Taxes. Under SFAS No. 109, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for future tax benefits or consequences attributable to temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. A valuation allowance is provided for significant deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not, that such asset will not be realized through future operations.
Loss Per Share
Basic loss per share is computed by dividing loss available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares assumed to be outstanding during the period of computation. Diluted earnings per share is computed similar to basic earnings per share except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the potential shares had been issued and if the additional common shares were dilutive. Options and warrants to purchase 6.1 and 10.1 million shares of common stock were outstanding at December 31, 2007 and March 31, 2008, respectively, but were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share due to the net losses for the period. No options or warrants were outstanding at December 31, 2006 or March 31, 2008.
Research and Development
The Company expenses research and development costs as incurred.
Advertising
Advertising expenses are charged against operations when incurred. Advertising expenses for the year ended December 31, 2007, the period from March 16, 2006 (date of inception) through December 31, 2006 and the three months ended March 31, 2008 and 2007 were $73,839, $63,109, $10,875 and $20,759 respectively, and is included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the accompanying consolidated statement of operation.
Commitments and Contingencies
On June 25, 2008, the Company elected to upgrade or replace approximately 400 external chargers (revision D or older) that were produced due to a chance that the chargers could fail over time. A failed charger could result in degrading the life of the batteries or cause the batteries to be permanently inoperable, or in extreme conditions result in thermal runaway of the batteries. The charges were placed in service between January 2007 and April 2008. The Company is notifying customers informing them of the need for an upgrade and will begin sending out newand/or upgraded chargers (revision E) in July to replace all existing revision D or older chargers that are in the field. After all the upgrades are complete, any remaining returned chargers will be upgraded to revision E and resold as refurbished units. The Company did not include any potential revenue from re-sales in the estimate. The total costs of upgrading or replacing these chargers are estimated to be approximately $73,000. The Company anticipates that all of the chargers will be upgraded or replaced by October 2008.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In March 2008, the Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued SFAS No. 161,Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities(“SFAS No. 161”). SFAS No. 161 is intended to improve financial reporting about derivative instruments and hedging activities by requiring enhanced disclosures to enable investors to better understand their effects on an entity’s financial position, financial performance, and cash flows. SFAS No. 161 achieves these improvements by requiring disclosure of the fair values of derivative instruments and their gains and losses in a tabular format. It also provides more information about an entity’s liquidity by requiring disclosure of derivative features that are credit risk-related. Finally, it requires cross-

referencing within footnotes to enable financial statement users to locate important information about derivative instruments. SFAS No. 161 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after November 15, 2008, with early application encouraged. The Company will adopt SFAS No. 161 in the first quarter of 2009 and does not believe the adoption will have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements.
In September 2006, the FASB issued Statement No. 157 (“SFAS No. 157”),Fair Value Measurements. SFAS No. 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles, and expands disclosures about fair value instruments. In February 2008, the FASB issued FASB Staff PositionNo. FAS 157-2, “Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 157” (the “FSP”). The FSP amends SFAS No. 157 to delay the effective date of SFAS No. 157 for non-financial assets and non-financial liabilities, except for items that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a recurring basis (that is, at least annually). There was no effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements as a result of the adoption of SFAS No. 157 as of January 1, 2008 as it relates to financial assets and financial liabilities. For items within its scope, the FSP defers the effective date of SFAS No. 157 to fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company will adopt SFAS No. 157 as it relates to non-financial assets and non-financial liabilities in the first quarter of 2009 and does not believe adoption will have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements.
In December 2007, the FASB issued Statement No. 160, “Non-controlling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements” which requires entities to report non-controlling (minority) interests in subsidiaries in the same way as equity in the consolidated financial statements. The statement is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 5, 2008. We will adopt this statement as of the beginning of 2009 and are currently assessing the potential impact of adoption.
In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159,The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities — Including an amendment of FASB Statement No. 115.SFAS No. 159 permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value. Unrealized gains and losses on items for which the fair value option has been elected will be recognized in earnings at each subsequent reporting date. SFAS No. 159 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. The Company is currently evaluating SFAS No. 159 to determine the impact, if any, on its consolidated financial statements.
In June 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Interpretation No. 48,Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes-an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109(“FIN 48”), which clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes. FIN 48 prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. The Interpretation requires that the Company recognize in the financial statements the impact of that tax position, if that position is more likely than not of being sustained on audit, based on the technical merits of the position. FIN 48 also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods and disclosure. The provisions of FIN 48 are effective for non public entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2007 with the cumulative effect of the change in accounting principle recorded as an adjustment to beginning retained earnings. The cumulative effect, if any, of applying the provisions of FIN No. 48 upon initial adoption, will be reported as an adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of fiscal 2008.
The Company does not believe that the adoption had a material impact on its financial condition or results of operations.
Business Segments
We currently only have one reportable business segment due to the fact that we derive our revenue from one product and currently from one geographic region.

Revenues. Our revenues are from sales of T3 personal mobility vehicles, power modules, chargers and related accessories. We exited as a development stage company in January 2007 when we began selling our vehicles and generating revenue. During the first quarter 2007, we initiated our sales strategy and began selling our product. The increase in revenue is attributable to the ramp up of our sales strategy and implementation of such strategy. Our growth quarter over quarter is directly attributable to the implementation of the sales strategy and the results of our T3 brand recognition.
Cost of revenues. Cost of revenues consisted of materials, labor to produce our vehicles and accessories, warranty and service costs and applicable overhead allocations. The increase in cost of revenues quarter over quarter is attributable to the increase in sales offset by our continued efforts to reduce our materials and production costs. The cost reduction strategy will continue as our volume increases and we are able to achieve volume discounts on our materials along with production efficiencies.
Gross loss. The gross loss was attributable to the Company having begun the initial sale of the T3 product and accessories to major customers in January 2007. As a result of the commencement of production, we incurred cost overruns and inefficiencies in our production process. During 2008, we have continued to source lower product costs as well as production efficiencies. Management has and will continue to evaluate our processes and materials to reduce the costs of revenue over the next year.

Table of Contents
Sales and marketing expense. Sales and marketing increased due to the conclusion of the prototype development of the T3 unit in fiscal year 2006 and commencement of sales of the T3 product and accessories to customers in fiscal year 2007. The costs are primarily attributable to the hiring of sales and marketing staff, travel and trade show expenses, and other sales and marketing related expenses.
Research and development. Research and development costs, which included development expenses such as salaries, consultant fees, cost of supplies and materials for samples, as well as outside services costs related to R&D increased over the prior year primarily due to continued design efforts to produce a lower cost vehicle along with continued efforts to design additional products and technology to assist with the cost reduction efforts.
General and administrative. General and administrative expenses increase is primarily attributable to increased wages from the addition of staff, increased depreciation, increased stock option expense and increased professional fees to support our public company filing requirements as well as infrastructure support to aid with our continued growth.
Total other income (expense), net. Our total other income (expenses), increased primarily due to increased interest expense from the increase in related party payables during the year and the debt discounts associated with such debt, offset in part by increased interest income from the increased cash balance.
Net Loss. Our net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2008 was $(2,689,022), or $(0.07) per basic and diluted share compared to $(1,211,858), or $(0.04) per basic and diluted share, for the same period of the prior year. The increase in net loss is attributable to strategic product sales at higher average costs per product. Significant improvements have been and will continue to be made to lower the average cost per unit. Management will continue to implement our cost reduction strategy over the next year to continue to reduce the average cost per product.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Our principal capital requirements are to fund working capital requirements, invest in research and development and capital equipment and to make our debt service payments. We will continue to raise equityand/or secure additional debt to meet our working capital requirements. For the year ended December 31, 2007, our independent registered public accounting firm noted in its report that we have incurred losses from operations and have an accumulated deficit of approximately $12.0 million as of December 31, 2007 and $14.8 million as of March 31, 2008, which raises substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Management believes that our current source of funds and current liquid assets will allow us to continue as a going concern through at least the end of 2008. We started selling our vehicles in 2007 and we have obtained equity financing through our Private Placement Memorandum, from third parties of $6,000,000 in the first quarter of 2008, $659,000 during the second quarter 2008 and may raise additional debtand/or equity capital to finance future activities through 2008. As of March 31, 2008, we had approximately $2.2 million of customer purchase commitments to be fulfilled and realized during 2008. In light of these plans, management is confident in our ability to continue as a going concern.
Until management achieves our cost reduction strategy over the next year, we will require additional capital to meet our working capital requirements, research and development and capital requirements. We will continue to raise additional equityand/or financing to meet our working capital requirements.
Our principal sources of liquidity are our cash and the net proceeds from this offering. As of March 31, 2008, our cash and cash equivalents were $5,775,028, or 56.9% of total assets. The increase in cash and cash equivalents during the three months ended March 31, 2008, was primarily attributable to equity raised of $6,000,000, offset in part by cash used in operating activities of $2,510,227.

Cash Flows
For the Three Months Ended March 31, 2008 and 2007
Net cash flow used in operating activities was $2,206,592 for the three months ended March 31, 2008 compared with $1,768,461 for the same period of the prior year. The increase of net cash flow used in operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2008 was mainly due to increase in our cost of goods and hiring of additional employees.
Net cash flow used in investing activities was $1,210,565 for the three months ended March 31, 2008 compared to $147,085 for the same period of the prior year. Uses of cash flow for investing activities included equipment and purchase of a data license. The increase of net cash flow used in investing activities during the three months ended March 31, 2008 was mainly due to the set up of our production lines and data license purchase.
Net cash flow provided by financing activities was $4,260,048 for the three months ended March 31, 2008 compared to $1,959,456 for the same period of the prior year. The increase in net cash flow was mainly due to $5,809,950 in equity financing from sale of stock and advances from related parties.

Off-balance Sheet Arrangements
We have not entered into any other financial guarantees or other commitments to guarantee the payment obligations of any third parties. We have not entered into any derivative contracts that are indexed to our shares and classified as shareholder’s equity or that are not reflected in our consolidated financial statements. Furthermore, we do not have any retained or contingent interest in assets transferred to an unconsolidated entity that serves as credit, liquidity or market risk support to such entity. We do not have any variable interest in any unconsolidated entity that provides financing, liquidity, market risk or credit support to us or engages in leasing, hedging or research and development services with us.
Related Party Transactions
For a description of our related party transactions see the section of this Prospectus entitled “Certain Relationships and Related Transactions.”
Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
We do not use derivative financial instruments in our investment portfolio and have no foreign exchange contracts. Our financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, trade accounts receivable, related-party receivables, accounts payable, accrued liabilities and related-party payables. We consider investments in highly liquid instruments purchased with a remaining maturity of 90 days or less at the date of purchase to be cash equivalents.
Interest Rates. Our exposure to market risk for changes in interest rates relates primarily to our short-term investments and short-term obligations; thus, fluctuations in interest rates would not have a material impact on the fair value of these securities. At March 31, 2008 and December 31, 2007, we had $5,775,028 and $4,932,272, respectively, in cash and cash equivalents. A hypothetical 0.5% increase or decrease in interest rates would not have a material impact on our earnings or loss, or the fair market value or cash flows of these instruments.
Comprehensive Income or Loss
For the year ended December 31, 2007, the period from March 16, 2006 (date of inception) through December 31, 2006 and for the three months ended March 31, 2008 and 2007, we had $777, $0, $135 and $0 respectively, of other comprehensive loss, which is related to foreign currency transaction loss from our wholly owned subsidiary T3 Motion Ltd. (UK).

DISCLOSURE OF COMMISSION POSITION ON
INDEMNIFICATION FOR SECURITIES ACT LIABILITIES
We have adopted provisions in our articles of incorporation that limit the liability of our directors for monetary damages for breach of their fiduciary duty as directors, except for liability that cannot be eliminated under the Delaware General Corporation Law. Delaware law provides that directors of a company will not be personally liable for monetary damages for breach of their fiduciary duty as directors, except for liabilities:
• | for any breach of their duty of loyalty to us or our stockholders; | |
• | for acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law; | |
• | for unlawful payment of dividend or unlawful stock repurchase or redemption, as provided under Section 174 of the Delaware General Corporation Law; or | |
• | for any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit. |
In addition, our bylaws provide for the indemnification of officers, directors and third parties acting on our behalf, to the fullest extent permitted by Delaware General Corporation Law, if our board of directors authorizes the proceeding for which such person is seeking indemnification (other than proceedings that are brought to enforce the indemnification provisions pursuant to the bylaws). We maintain directors’ and officers’ liability insurance.
These indemnification provisions may be sufficiently broad to permit indemnification of the registrant’s executive officers and directors for liabilities (including reimbursement of expenses incurred) arising under the Securities Act of 1933.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to our directors, officers and controlling persons pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, we have been advised that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and is, therefore, unenforceable. No pending material litigation or proceeding involving our directors, executive officers, employees or other agents as to which indemnification is being sought exists, and we are not aware of any pending or threatened material litigation that may result in claims for indemnification by any of our directors or executive officers.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
Board of Directors and Stockholders
T3 Motion, Inc.
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of T3 Motion, Inc. and subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2007 and 2006, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ equity (deficit) and cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2007 and for the period from March 16, 2006 (date of inception) through December 31, 2006. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit on its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall consolidated financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of T3 Motion, Inc. as of December 31, 2007 and 2006, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for year ended December 31, 2007 and for the period March 16, 2006 (date of inception) through December 31, 2006, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. As described in Note 1, the Company has incurred significant operating losses, had negative cash flows from operations in 2007 and 2006, and accumulated deficit of $12,078,030 at December 31, 2007. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 1. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amount and classification of liabilities that may result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

T3 MOTION, INC.
NOTE 1 — | DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS |
Organization
T3 Motion, Inc. (the “Company”) was organized on March 16, 2006, under the laws of the state of Delaware. The Company develops and manufactures T3 vehicles, which are electric three-wheelstand-up vehicles that are directly targeted to the public safety and private security markets. T3 vehicles have been designed to tackle a host of daily professional functions, from community policing to patrolling of airports, military bases, campuses, malls, public event venues and other high-density areas. The Company was in development stage until January 2007 when it began generating substantial revenues from selling its vehicles.
Effective December 15, 2006, the Company declared a 30,000-to-1 stock split of the Company’s common stock. All share amounts have been adjusted throughout the financial statements for this stock split.
Going Concern
The Company’s consolidated financial statements are prepared using the accrual method of accounting in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the settlement of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has sustained operating losses since its inception (March 16, 2006) and has used substantial amounts of working capital in its operations. Further, at December 31, 2007 accumulated deficit amounted to $12,078,030. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time.
Management believes that its current sources of funds and current liquid assets will allow the Company to continue as a going concern through at least the end of 2008. The Company started selling its vehicles in 2007 and it has obtained equity financing from third parties of $6,659,000 through May 12, 2008 (see Note 10) and may raise additional debtand/or equity capital to finance future activities through 2008. As of December 31, 2007, the Company had approximately $1.8 million of customer purchase commitments to be fulfilled and realized during 2008. In light of these plans, management is confident in the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. These consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of T3 Motion, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiary, T3 Motion Ltd. (UK). All significant inter-company accounts and transactions are eliminated in consolidation.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period. Significant estimates include, but are not limited to, collectability of accounts receivable, recoverability of long-lived assets, and realizability of inventories, warranty accruals, stock-based compensation and deferred tax assets. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)
Foreign Currency Translation
The Company measures the financial statements of its foreign subsidiary using the local currency as the functional currency. Assets and liabilities of this subsidiary are translated at the exchange rate on the balance sheet date. Revenues, costs and expenses are translated at the rates of exchange prevailing during the year. Translation adjustments resulting from this process are included in stockholders’ equity. Gains and losses from foreign currency translations are included in other comprehensive income. Translation losses of $777 and $0 were recognized during the year ended December 31, 2007 and the period from March 16, 2006 (date of inception) through December 31, 2006, respectively.
Concentrations of Credit Risk
Cash
The Company maintains its cash balances at financial institutions that are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) up to $100,000. From time to time, the Company’s cash balances exceed the amount insured by the FDIC. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts and believes it is not exposed to any significant credit risk related to these deposits. At December 31, 2007, the Company had balances in excess of the FDIC limit.
Accounts Receivable
The Company performs periodic evaluations of its customers and maintains allowances for potential credit losses as deemed necessary. The Company generally does not require collateral to secure its accounts receivable. The Company estimates credit losses based on management’s evaluation of historical bad debts, customer concentrations, customer credit-worthiness, current economic trends and changes in customer payment patterns when evaluating the adequacy of the allowance for doubtful accounts. At December 31, 2007, the Company has an allowance for doubtful accounts of $30,000. Although the Company expects to collect amounts due, actual collections may differ from the estimated amounts.
As of December 31, 2007, two customers accounted for approximately 35% of total accounts receivable.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers cash equivalents to be all short-term investments that have an initial maturity of 90 days or less and are not restricted. We invest our cash in short-term money market accounts.
Inventories
Inventories, which consist of raw materials, finished goods andwork-in-process, are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value, with cost being determined by the average-cost method, which approximates thefirst-in, first-out method. At each balance sheet date, the Company evaluates its ending inventories for excess quantities and obsolescence. This evaluation primarily includes an analysis of forecasted demand in relation to the inventory on hand, among consideration of other factors. Based upon the evaluation, provisions are made to reduce excess or obsolete inventories to their estimated net realizable values. Once established, write-downs are considered permanent adjustments to the cost basis of the respective inventories.
As of December 31, 2007, one vendor accounted for approximately 25% of total accounts payable.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are stated at cost, and are being depreciated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets, ranging from three to five years. Leasehold improvements are recorded at cost and amortized on a straight-line basis over the shorter of their estimated lives or the remaining

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)
lease term. Significant renewals and betterments are capitalized. Maintenance and repairs that do not improve or extend the lives of the respective assets are expensed. At the time property and equipment are retired or otherwise disposed of, the cost and related accumulated depreciation accounts are relieved of the applicable amounts. Gains or losses from retirements or sales are reflected in the consolidated statement of operations.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
The Company accounts for its long-lived assets in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 144,Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets. SFAS No. 144 requires that long-lived assets be reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the historical cost carrying value of an asset may no longer be appropriate. The Company assesses recoverability of the carrying value of an asset by estimating the future net cash flows expected to result from the asset, including eventual disposition. If the future net cash flows are less than the carrying value of the asset, an impairment loss is recorded equal to the difference between the asset’s carrying value and fair value or disposable value. As of December 31, 2007 and 2006, the Company does not believe there has been any impairment of its long-lived assets. There can be no assurance, however, that market conditions will not change or demand for the Company’s products will continue, which could result in impairment of long-lived assets in the future.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash, accounts receivable, related party receivable, accounts payable, accrued expense, and related party payables. The carrying value for all such instruments approximates fair value due either to the short-term nature of the instruments or the fact that prevailing interest rates are not substantially different from the Company’s borrowing rates at December 31, 2007 and 2006.
Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenues in accordance with the Securities and Exchange Commission’s Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) No. 104,Revenue Recognition. Under the provisions of SAB No. 104, the Company recognizes revenues when there is persuasive evidence of an arrangement, product delivery and acceptance have occurred, the sales price is fixed or determinable and collectability of the resulting receivable is reasonably assured.
For all sales, the Company uses a binding purchase order as evidence of an arrangement. Delivery occurs when goods are shipped for customers with FOB Shipping Point terms. Shipping documents are used to verify delivery and customer acceptance. The Company assesses whether the sales price is fixed or determinable based on the payment terms associated with the transaction and whether the sales price is subject to refund. The Company offers a standard product warranty to its customers for defects in materials and workmanship for a period of one year or 2,500 miles, whichever comes first (see Note 8), and has no other post-shipment obligations. The Company assesses collectability based on the creditworthiness of the customer as determined by evaluations and the customer’s payment history.
All amounts billed to customers related to shipping and handling are classified as net sales, while all costs incurred by the Company for shipping and handling are classified as cost of sales.
The Company does not enter into contracts that require fixed pricing beyond the term of the purchase order. All sales via distributor agreements are accompanied with a purchase order. Further, the Company does not allow returns of unsold items.
The Company has executed various distribution agreements whereby the distributors agreed to purchase T3 vehicle packages (one T3, two power modules, and one charger per package). The terms of the agreements require minimum re-order amounts for the vehicles to be sold through the distributors in specified geographic
F-8

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)
regions. Under the terms of the agreements, the distributor takes ownership of the vehicles and the Company deems the items sold at delivery to the distributor.
Stock Based Compensation
The Company maintains a stock option plan (see Note 7) and records expenses attributable to the Company’s stock option plan pursuant to SFAS No. 123(R),
Share-Based Payment,
Under SFAS No. 123(R), the Company amortizes the fair value of stock-based compensation on a straight-line basis over the requisite service (vesting) period for the entire award.
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes under the provisions of SFAS No. 109,Accounting for Income Taxes. Under SFAS No. 109, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for future tax benefits or consequences attributable to temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. A valuation allowance is provided for significant deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not, that such asset will not be realized through future operations.
Loss Per Share
Basic loss per share is computed by dividing loss available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares assumed to be outstanding during the period of computation. Diluted earnings per share is computed similar to basic earnings per share except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the potential shares had been issued and if the additional common shares were dilutive. Options and warrants to purchase approximately 6.1 million shares of common stock were outstanding at December 31, 2007, but were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share due to the net losses for the period. No options or warrants were outstanding at December 31, 2006.
Research and Development
The Company expenses research and development costs as incurred.
Advertising
Advertising expenses are charged against operations when incurred. Advertising expenses for the year ended December 31, 2007 and the period from March 16, 2006 (date of inception) through December 31, 2006 were $73,839 and $63,109, respectively, and are included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.
Segments
We currently only have one reportable business segment due to the fact that we derive our revenue from one product and currently from one geographic region
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In December 2007, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued SFAS No. 160,Non-controlling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements,which requires entities to report non-
F-9
Table of Contents

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)
controlling (minority) interests in subsidiaries in the same way as equity in the consolidated financial statements. SFAS No. 160 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 5, 2008. The Company will adopt this statement as of the beginning of 2009 and is currently assessing the potential impact of adoption.
In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159,The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities — Including an amendment of FASB Statement No. 115.SFAS No. 159 permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value. Unrealized gains and losses on items for which the fair value option has been elected will be recognized in earnings at each subsequent reporting date. SFAS No. 159 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. The Company is currently evaluating SFAS No. 159 to determine the impact, if any, on its consolidated financial statements.
In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157,Fair Value Measurements. SFAS No. 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in GAAP and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. Specifically, SFAS No. 157 sets forth a definition of fair value, and establishes a hierarchy prioritizing the inputs to valuation techniques, giving the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs. The provisions of SFAS No. 157 are generally required to be applied on a prospective basis. In February 2008, the FASB approved a FASB Staff Position (FSP) that permits companies to partially defer the effective date of SFAS 157 for one year for nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a nonrecurring basis. The FSP did not permit companies to defer recognition and disclosure requirements for financial assets and financial liabilities or for nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities that are remeasured at least annually. The Company is currently evaluating the impact, if any, the adoption of SFAS No. 157 will have on its consolidated financial position or operating results.
In June 2006, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 48,Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes-an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109(“FIN 48”), which clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes. FIN 48 prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. The Interpretation requires that the Company recognize in the financial statements the impact of that tax position, if that position is more likely than not of being sustained on audit, based on the technical merits of the position. FIN 48 also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods and disclosure. The provisions of FIN 48 are effective for non public entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2007 with the cumulative effect of the change in accounting principle recorded as an adjustment to beginning retained earnings. The cumulative effect, if any, of applying the provisions of FIN No. 48 upon initial adoption, will be reported as an adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of fiscal 2008. The Company is currently evaluating the impact, if any, that adoption of FIN 48 will have on its consolidated financial statements.

An allowance has been provided for by the Company which reduced the tax benefits accrued by the Company for its net operating losses to zero, as it cannot be determined when, or if, the tax benefits derived from these operating losses will materialize. As of December 31, 2007, the Company has available net operating loss carry forwards of approximately $9,666,000 for federal and $9,764,000 for state purposes and $102,000 for foreign purposes which start to expire through 2026 for federal and 2016 for California purposes and indefinitely for foreign purposes. The Company’s use of its net operating losses may be restricted in future years due to the limitations pursuant to IRC Section 382 on changes in ownership.
NOTE 6 — | EQUITY |
On December 31, 2007, the Company raised $5.0 million through an equity and debt financing transaction (“Financing”) with Immersive Media Corp. (“Immersive”). The Company issued and sold 1,851,852 shares of common stock at $1.62 per share to Immersive for a total purchase price of $3,000,000. The Company also issued a 12% secured promissory note in the amount of $2,000,000 due December 31, 2008 (see Note 9). In connection with the promissory note, the Company granted warrants to purchase 697,639 shares of common stock, exercisable at $1.081 per share. The warrants are exercisable for five years (see Note 7).
In addition, during 2007, the Company sold 1,059,770 shares of common stock for $598,000.
Upon the completion of the $3,000,000 equity financing, the Company agreed to pay a third-party consulting firm $210,000 as a finder’s fee. Furthermore, the Company agreed that if the consulting firm assists the Company in raising at least an additional $6.5 million from at least three or more institutional investors, assists in retaining an appropriate public relations firm after it has become a publicly traded company and other services, then the Company will issue the consulting firm a warrant to purchase 1,862,069 shares of

common stock at $0.01 per share, as payment for services rendered, and in lieu of the $210,000 finder’s fee and any remaining balance of placement agent fee owed to the consulting firm (but not any third party broker/dealers). As of December 31, 2007, the Company did not issue the warrants, as the terms of the agreement had not been fulfilled.
See Notes 7 and 9 for additional equity transactions.
NOTE 7 — | STOCK OPTIONS AND WARRANTS |
Common Stock Options
On August 15, 2007 the Company adopted the Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”), under which direct stock awards or options to acquire shares of the Company’s common stock may be granted to employees and nonemployees of the Company. The Plan was administered by the Board of Directors. The Plan permitted the issuance of up to 7,450,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. Options granted under the Plan vest 25% per year over four years and expire 10 years from the date of grant.

Summary of Assumptions and Activity
The fair value of each option award is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model for service and performance based awards, and a binomial model for market based awards. In estimating fair value, expected volatilities used by the Company were based on the historical volatility of the underlying common stock of its peer group, and other factors such as implied volatility of traded options of a comparable peer group. The expected life assumptions for all periods were derived from a review of annual historical employee exercise behavior of option grants with similar vesting periods of a comparable peer group. The risk-free rate used to calculate the fair value is based on the expected term of the option. In all cases, the risk-free rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield bond curve in effect at the time of grant.
The assumptions used to calculate the fair value of options and warrants granted are evaluated and revised, as necessary, to reflect market conditions and experience. The following table presents details of the assumptions used to calculate the weighted-average grant date fair value of common stock options and warrants granted by the Company, along with certain other pertinent information:

Fair value of options vested | $ | 1,875,149 | $ | N/A | ||||
Upon the exercise of common stock options, the Company issues new shares from its authorized shares.
At December 31, 2007, the amount of unearned stock-based compensation currently estimated to be expensed from fiscal 2008 through 2011 related to unvested common stock options is approximately $3.2 million. The weighted-average period over which the unearned stock-based compensation is expected to be recognized is approximately 2.8 years. If there are any modifications or cancellations of the underlying unvested common stock options, the Company may be required to accelerate, increase or cancel any remaining unearned stock-based compensation expense. Future stock-based compensation expense and unearned stock-based compensation will increase to the extent that the Company grants additional common stock options or other equity awards.

Operating Leases
The Company leases two facilities in Costa Mesa, California under non-cancelable operating lease agreements that expire in 2008 and 2012, respectively. These leases require monthly lease payments of approximately $8,000 and $27,000 per month, respectively. In addition, the Company has one automobile lease, which expires in December 2009.
Lease expense for the facilities and automobiles were approximately $407,000 and $168,000 for the year ended December 31, 2007 and the period from March 16, 2006 (date of inception) through December 31, 2006, respectively.
Future minimum annual payments under these non-cancelable operating leases and automobile leases as of December 31, 2007 are as follows:
Years Ending | ||||
December 31, | Total | |||
2008 | $ | 386,000 | ||

Indemnities and Guarantees
During the normal course of business, the Company has made certain indemnities and guarantees under which it may be required to make payments in relation to certain transactions. These indemnities include certain agreements with the Company’s officers under which the Company may be required to indemnify such person for liabilities arising out of their employment relationship. In connection with its facility and automobile leases, the Company has indemnified its lessors for certain claims arising from the use of the
F-15

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)
facilities and automobiles, respectively. The duration of these indemnities and guarantees varies, and in certain cases, is indefinite. The majority of these indemnities and guarantees do not provide for any limitation of the maximum potential future payments the Company would be obligated to make. Historically, the Company has not been obligated to make significant payments for these obligations and no liability has been recorded for these indemnities and guarantees in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet.
Warranties
The Company’s warranty policy generally provides coverage for components of the vehicle, power modules, and charger system that the Company produces. Typically, the coverage period is the shorter of one calendar year or 2,500 miles, from the date of sale. Provisions for estimated expenses related to product warranties are made at the time products are sold. These estimates are established using estimated information on the nature, frequency, and average cost of claims. Revision to the reserves for estimated product warranties is made when necessary, based on changes in these factors. Management actively studies trends of claims and takes action to improve vehicle quality and minimize claims.
The T3 Series vehicle is a front wheel drive all electric vehicle and as such the front fork assembly is the main vehicle drive system. In late 2007, the Company made significant improvements to this drive system by implementing into production a new belt drive system. The system offers greater efficiency and minimizes the need for routine maintenance while improving the overall quality of the vehicle. The belt drive system is standard on new 2008 models and is reverse compatible with all older year models. The Company has agreed to retro-fit existing vehicles that are in service with the new system.
The following table presents the changes in the product warranty accrual included in accrued expenses in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet as of and for the year ended December 31, 2007:

NOTE 1 — | DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS |
Interim Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Securities and Exchange Commission’s (“SEC”) regulations for interim financial information. The principles for condensed interim financial information do not require the inclusion of all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. Therefore, these financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s annual report for the year ended December 31, 2007. The condensed consolidated financial statements included herein are unaudited; however, in the opinion of management, they contain all normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair statement of consolidated results for the interim periods. The results of operations for the three-month period ended March 31, 2008 and 2007 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the entire fiscal year.
Going Concern
The Company’s consolidated financial statements are prepared using the accrual method of accounting in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the settlement of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has sustained operating losses since its inception (March 16, 2006) and has used substantial amounts of working capital in its operations. Further, at March 31, 2008 accumulated deficit amounted to $14,767,053. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time.
Management believes that its current sources of funds and current liquid assets will allow the Company to continue as a going concern through at least the end of 2008. The Company started selling its vehicles in 2007 and it has obtained equity financing in 2008 from third parties of $6,659,000 through May 12, 2008, and may raise additional debtand/or equity capital to finance future activities during 2008. As of June 30, 2008, the Company had $2.5 million in cash and cash equivalents. As of March 31, 2008, the Company had approximately $2.2 million of customer purchase commitments to be fulfilled and realized during 2008. In light of these plans, management is confident in the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period. Significant estimates include, but are not limited to, collectability of accounts receivable, recoverability of long-lived assets, and realizability of inventories, warranty accruals, stock-based compensation and deferred tax assets. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Concentration of Risk
As of March 31, 2008, five customers accounted for approximately 58 percent of total accounts receivable and two customers accounted for approximately 26% of total revenues. As of March 31, 2007, one customer accounted for approximately 35% of total revenues.
F-23
Table of Contents
T3 MOTION, INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) — (Continued)
As of December 31, 2007, two customers accounted for approximately 35% of total accounts receivable and no one customer accounted for more than 10% of total revenues.
Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenues in accordance with the Securities and Exchange Commission’s Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) No. 104,Revenue Recognition. Under the provisions of SAB No. 104, the Company recognizes revenues when there is persuasive evidence of an arrangement, product delivery and acceptance have occurred, the sales price is fixed or determinable and collectability of the resulting receivable is reasonably assured.
For all sales, the Company uses a binding purchase order as evidence of an arrangement. Delivery occurs when goods are shipped for customers with FOB Shipping Point terms. Shipping documents are used to verify delivery and customer acceptance. The Company assesses whether the sales price is fixed or determinable based on the payment terms associated with the transaction and whether the sales price is subject to refund. The Company offers a standard product warranty to its customers for defects in materials and workmanship for a period of one year or 2,500 miles, whichever comes first (see Note 8), and has no other post-shipment obligations. The Company assesses collectability based on the creditworthiness of the customer as determined by evaluations and the customer’s payment history.
All amounts billed to customers related to shipping and handling are classified as net sales, while all costs incurred by the Company for shipping and handling are classified as cost of sales.
The Company does not enter into contracts that require fixed pricing beyond the term of the purchase order. All sales via distributor agreements are accompanied with a purchase order. Further, the Company does not allow returns of unsold items.
The Company has executed various distribution agreements whereby the distributors agreed to purchase T3 vehicle packages (one T3, two power modules, and one charger per package). The terms of the agreements require minimum re-order amounts for the vehicles to be sold through the distributors in specified geographic regions. Under the terms of the agreements, the distributor takes ownership of the vehicles and the Company deems the items sold at delivery to the distributor.
Intangible Property
The Company’s intangible asset consists of a data license agreement and is amortized on a straight-line basis over two years. All identified intangible assets are classified within other long-term assets on the consolidated balance sheets. The Company will perform an annual review of its identified intangible assets to determine if facts and circumstances exist which indicate that the useful life is shorter than originally estimated or that the carrying amount of assets may not be recoverable. If such facts and circumstances do exist, the Company assesses the recoverability of identified intangible assets b y comparing the projected undiscounted net cash flows associated with the related asset or group of assets over their remaining lives against their respective carrying amounts. Impairment, if any, is based on the excess of the carrying amount over the fair value of those assets.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash, accounts receivable, related party receivable, accounts payable, accrued expense, and related party payables. The carrying value for all such instruments approximates fair value due either to the short-term nature of the instruments or the fact that prevailing interest rates are not substantially different from the Company’s borrowing rates at December 31, 2007 and March 31, 2008.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In September 2006, the FASB issued Statement No. 157 (“SFAS No. 157”),Fair Value Measurements. SFAS No. 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles, and expands disclosures about fair value instruments. In February 2008, the FASB issued FASB Staff PositionNo. FAS 157-2, “Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 157” (the “FSP”). The FSP amends SFAS No. 157 to delay the effective date of SFAS No. 157 for non-financial assets and non-financial liabilities, except for items that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a recurring basis (that is, at least annually). There was no effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements as a result of the adoption of SFAS No. 157 as of January 1, 2008 as it relates to financial assets and financial liabilities. For items within its scope, the FSP defers the effective date of SFAS No. 157 to fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company will adopt SFAS No. 157 as it relates to non-financial assets and non-financial liabilities in the first quarter of 2009 and does not believe adoption will have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 3 — | INCOME TAXES |
In preparing our consolidated financial statements, we estimate our income tax liability in each of the foreign and domestic jurisdictions in which we operate by estimating our actual current tax exposure and assessing temporary differences resulting from differing treatment of items for tax and financial statement purposes. Our judgments, assumptions and estimates relative to the current provision for income tax take into account current tax laws, our interpretation of current tax laws and possible outcomes of audits conducted by foreign and domestic tax authorities. Although we believe our judgments, assumptions and estimates are reasonable, changes in tax laws or our interpretation of tax laws and the resolution of any future tax audits could significantly impact the amounts provided for income taxes in our consolidated financial statements.
We calculate our current and deferred tax provisions based on estimates and assumptions that could differ from the actual results reflected in income tax returns filed during the subsequent year. Adjustments based on filed returns are generally recorded in the period when the tax returns are filed and the global tax implications are known and could significantly impact the amounts provided for income taxes. Tax law and rate changes are reflected in the income tax provision in the period in which such changes are enacted.
In assessing the realizability of the net deferred tax assets, we consider whether it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets depends upon either the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary

differences become deductible or the carryback of losses to recover income taxes previously paid during the carryback period.
In June 2006, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes — an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109” (“FIN 48”). The interpretation clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in a company’s financial statements in accordance with SFAS No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes.” Specifically, the pronouncement prescribes a recognition threshold and a measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. The interpretation also provides guidance on the related derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting for interim periods, disclosure and transition of uncertain tax positions. The provisions of FIN 48 are effective for non public entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2007 with the cumulative effect of the change in accounting principle recorded as an adjustment to beginning retained earnings. The Company is currently analyzing the effects of the adoption of FIN 48 but currently does not anticipate that the adoption will have a material impact on its financial condition or results of operations.
NOTE 4 — | LOSS PER SHARE |
Basic loss per share is computed by dividing loss available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares assumed to be outstanding during the period of computation. Diluted earnings per share is computed similar to basic earnings per share except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the potential shares had been issued and if the additional common shares were dilutive. Options and warrants to purchase 6.1 and 10.1 million shares of common stock were outstanding at December 31, 2007 and March 31, 2008, respectively, but were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share due to the net losses for the period. No options or warrants were outstanding at March 31, 2007 or December 31, 2006.
NOTE 5 — | EQUITY |
On March 28, 2008, the Company entered into an agreement with Vision Opportunity Master Fund (“Vision”) to sell 3,896,104 shares of the Company’s common stock for $6,000,000. The proceeds from the sale were used for working capital requirements, purchase of a data license and to pay down debt. The terms of the agreement stipulate that the Company shall use its best efforts to qualify the common stock for quotation on a trading market as soon as practicable, but in no event later than the later of (a) May 30, 2009 or (b) the 90th day after the effectiveness of the registration statement onForm S-1 registering some or all of the common stock.
In addition, Vision was granted three classes of stock purchase warrants as follows: Series A Stock Purchase Warrants , which granted Vision the right to purchase 1,298,701 shares of common stock at $1.08 per share; Series B Stock Purchase Warrant, which granted Vision the right to purchase 1,298,701 shares of common stock at $1.77 per share; and Series C Stock Purchase Warrant, which granted Vision the right to purchase 1,298,701 shares of common stock at $2.00 per share. All three classes of warrants expire after five years.
Upon the completion of the $6,000,000 equity financing, the Company incurred $190,050 of issuance costs, including $125,000 to be paid to a third-party consulting firm and issued 120,000 warrants at an exercise price of $1.54 per common share for services rendered.

At March 31, 2008, the amount of unearned stock-based compensation currently estimated to be expensed from fiscal 2008 through 2011 related to unvested common stock options is approximately $3.1 million.

Warranties
The Company’s warranty policy generally provides coverage for components of the vehicle, power modules and charger system that the Company produces. Typically, the coverage period is the shorter of one calendar year or 2,500 miles, from the date of sale. Provisions for estimated expenses related to product warranties are made at the time products are sold. These estimates are established using estimated information on the nature, frequency, and average cost of claims. Revision to the reserves for estimated product warranties is made when necessary, based on changes in these factors. Management actively studies trends of claims and takes action to improve vehicle quality and minimize claims.
The T3 Series vehicle is a front wheel drive all electric vehicle and as such the front fork assembly is the main vehicle drive system. In late 2007, the Company made significant improvements to this drive system by implementing into production a new belt drive system. The system offers greater efficiency and minimizes the need for routine maintenance while improving the overall quality of the vehicle. The belt drive system is standard on new 2008 models and is reverse compatible with all older year models. The Company has agreed to retro-fit existing vehicles that are in service with the new system.
On June 25, 2008, the Company elected to upgrade or replace approximately 400 external chargers (revision D or older) that were produced due to a chance that the chargers could fail over time. A failed charger could result in degrading the life of the batteries or cause the batteries to be permanently inoperable, or in extreme conditions result in thermal runaway of the batteries. The charges were placed in service between January 2007 and April 2008. The Company is notifying customers informing them of the need for an upgrade and will begin sending out newand/or upgraded chargers (revision E) in July to replace all existing revision D or older chargers that are in the field. After all the upgrades are complete, any remaining returned chargers will be upgraded to revision E and resold as refurbished units. The Company did not include any potential revenue from re-sales in the estimate. The total costs of upgrading or replacing these chargers are estimated to be approximately $73,000. The Company anticipates that all of the chargers will be upgraded or replaced by October 2008.

Indemnities and Guarantees
During the normal course of business, the Company has made certain indemnities and guarantees under which it may be required to make payments in relation to certain transactions. These indemnities include certain agreements with the Company’s officers under which the Company may be required to indemnify such person for liabilities arising out of their employment relationship. In connection with its facility and automobile leases, the Company has indemnified its lessors for certain claims arising from the use of the facilities and automobiles, respectively. The duration of these indemnities and guarantees varies, and in certain cases, is indefinite. The majority of these indemnities and guarantees do not provide for any limitation of the maximum potential future payments the Company would be obligated to make. Historically, the Company has not been obligated to make significant payments for these obligations and no liability has been recorded for these indemnities and guarantees in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet.

Item 14. | Indemnification of Directors and Officers. |
Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law authorizes a court to award, or a corporation’s board of directors to grant, indemnity to officers, directors and other corporate agents in terms sufficiently broad to permit such indemnification under certain circumstances and subject to certain limitations.
The registrant’s articles of incorporation includes a provision that eliminates the personal liability of its directors for monetary damages for breach of their fiduciary duty as directors.
In addition, the registrant’s bylaws provide for the indemnification of officers, directors and third parties acting on our behalf, to the fullest extent permitted by Delaware General Corporation Law, if our board of directors authorizes the proceeding for which such person is seeking indemnification (other than proceedings that are brought to enforce the indemnification provisions pursuant to the bylaws). The registrant maintains director and officer liability insurance.
These indemnification provisions may be sufficiently broad to permit indemnification of the registrant’s executive officers and directors for liabilities (including reimbursement of expenses incurred) arising under the Securities Act of 1933.
Item 15. | Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities. |
In March 2006, we issued 30,000,000 shares of our common stock to The Nam Family Trust, a trust affiliated with our founder Ki Nam, in exchange for cash in the amount of $30,000. This sale of stock did not involve any public offering, general advertising or solicitation. At the time of the issuance, Mr. Nam had fair access to and was in possession of all available material information about our company, as he is an officer and director of our company. The shares bear a restrictive transfer legend in accordance with Rule 144 under the Securities Act. On the basis of these facts, we claim that the issuance of stock to our founding shareholder qualifies for the exemption from registration contained in Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933.
Between December 2006 and January 2007, we issued 4,512,212 shares of our common stock to members of Mr. Nam’s family at $0.33 per share. This sale of stock did not involve any public offering, general advertising or solicitation. At the time of the issuance, the purchasers had fair access to and were in possession of all available material information about our company. The shares bear a restrictive transfer legend in accordance with Rule 144 under the Securities Act. On the basis of these facts, we claim that the issuance of stock qualifies for the exemption from registration contained in Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933.
In September 2007, we completed an offering of our common stock to a group of private investors. We issued 2,758,621 shares of its $0.001 par value common stock for cash at $0.87 per share to three shareholders. This September 2007 transaction (a) involved no general solicitation, and (b) involved only accredited

purchasers. Thus, we believe that the offering was exempt from registration under Regulation D, Rule 505 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
In January 2008, we completed an offering of our common stock to ImmersiveMedia. We issued 1,851,852 shares of our common stock for cash at $1.62 per share for an aggregate price of $3,000,000. We also issued 12% promissory notes in the principal amount of $2,000,000 and warrants to purchase 697,639 shares at $1.081 per share in exchange for $2,000,000. This January 2008 transaction (a) involved no general solicitation, and (b) involved only accredited purchasers. Thus, we believe that the offering was exempt from registration under Regulation D, Rule 505 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
In March 2008, we completed an offering of our common stock to one shareholder. We issued 3,896,104 shares of our common stock and warrants to purchase 1,298,701, 1,298,701, and 1,298,701 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $1.08, $1.77 and $2.00 per share, respectively, for cash at an aggregate price of $6,000,000. This March 2008 transaction (a) involved no general solicitation, and (b) involved only accredited purchasers. Thus, we believe that the offering was exempt from registration under Regulation D, Rule 505 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
In May 2008, we completed an offering of an aggregate of 390,640 shares of its common stock at $1.65 per share to 41 accredited investors (the “Offering”) pursuant to subscription agreements for an aggregate price of $644,554. The issuance of the securities describe above were exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, under Rule 4(2) and Regulation D and the rules thereunder, including Rule 506 insofar as: (1) the purchasers were each an accredited investor within the meaning of Rule 501(a); (2) the transfer of the securities were restricted by us in accordance with Rule 502(d); (3) there were no other non-accredited investors involved in the transaction within the meaning of Rule 506(b); and (4) the offer and sale of the securities was not effected through any general solicitation or general advertising within the meaning of Rule 502(c).

Item 17. | Undertakings. |
The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:
1. To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement to:
i. Include any prospectus required by section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933;
ii. Reflect in the prospectus any facts or events which, individually or together, represent a fundamental change in the information in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing,, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective registration statement; and
iii. Include any additional or changed material information on the plan of distribution.
2. For determining liability under the Securities Act of 1933, treat each post-effective amendment as a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
3. File a post-effective amendment to remove from registration any of the securities that remain unsold at the end of offering.
4. For determining liability of the Company under the Securities Act to any purchaser in the initial distribution of the securities, the Company undertakes that in a primary offering of securities of the Company pursuant to this registration statement, regardless of the underwriting method used to sell the securities to the purchaser, if the securities are offered or sold to such purchaser by means of any of the
II-3
Table of Contents
following communications, the Company will be a seller to the purchaser and will be considered to offer or sell such securities to such purchaser:
i. Any preliminary prospectus or prospectus of the Company relating to the offering required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424;
ii. Any free writing prospectus relating to the offering prepared by or on behalf of the Company or used or referred to by the Company;
iii. The portion of any other free writing prospectus relating to the offering containing material information about the Company or its securities provided by or on behalf of the Company; and
iv. Any other communication that is an offer in the offering made by the Company to the purchaser.
5. For the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each post-effective amendment that contains a form of prospectus shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
6. Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to our directors, officers and controlling persons under the foregoing provisions or otherwise, we have been advised that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. If a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than our payment of expenses incurred or paid by any of our directors, officers or controlling persons in the successful defense of any action, suit, or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, we will, unless in the opinion of our counsel the matter has been settled by a controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by us is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
