In this prospectus, we refer to T3 Motion, Inc. and its subsidiary as “we,” “our,” or “T3,” or “the Company.” We refer to our subsidiary as “Subsidiary.”
Our Company
T3 Motion designs, manufactures and markets personal mobility vehicles powered by electric motors. Our initial product is the T3 Series, which is a three wheel, electricstand-up vehicle (“ESV”) powered by a quiet,zero-gas emission electric motor that is designed specifically for public and private security personnel. Substantially all of our revenues to date have been derived from sales and maintenance of the T3 Series ESVs and related accessories.
T3 Series ESV
The T3 Series is a three-wheel, front wheel drive,stand-up, electric personal mobility vehicle with a zero-gas emission electric motor. The T3 Series has hydraulic disk brakes on both rear wheels that 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 Series enables the operator to respond rapidly to calls with low physical exertion. The nine-inch elevated riding platform allows 360 degrees visibility, while the ergonomic riding position reduces fatigue. The T3 Series zero degree turning radius makes it highly maneuverable. The T3 Series comes standard with a lockable storage compartment for equipment and supplies.
The T3 Series has replaceable power modules that allow continuous vehicle operation without downtime required for recharging. The T3 Series also offers a variety of battery technology options in its power modules. The power modules and charger can be sold separately from the vehicle to serve as replacement parts.
T3i Series ESV
We leveraged the modularity of the T3 Series vehicle to enter the international market with the T3i Series, which is a version of the professional T3 Series designed to comply with various international compliance standards. The T3i Series features integrated LED headlights, brake lights, running lights, and emergency lights.
CT Series Micro Car
The CT Series Micro Car is a low speed four-wheel electric car. The CT Series offers a variety of battery technology options with varying range options. The CT Series has lighting, siren and PA system options and is manufactured by CT&T Co., Ltd., a Korean electric vehicle manufacturer (“CT&T”). The CT Series is considered both a low speed vehicle and a neighborhood electric vehicle. Pursuant to our distribution agreement with CT&T, dated November 24, 2008, we have the exclusive license to market and sell the CT Series Micro Car in North America for all law enforcement, government and military markets and in all of the United States for government, law enforcement and security markets. The initial term of the distribution agreement expires in November 2011, but this agreement automatically renews for additional one-year periods unless it is terminated by either party by providing written notice to the other party at least 90 days prior to the end of any term.

Table of Contents
We plan to leverage the branding of the T3 Series to market the CT Series Micro Car using our existing sales channels in the law enforcement and private security sectors.
Electric/Hybrid Vehicle
The Electric/Hybrid Vehicle is our newest product that is currently in development. The Electric/Hybrid Vehicle is a plug-in hybrid vehicle that is expected to be introduced in late 2011. The proprietary rear-wheel design features a patent-pending, single wide stance wheel with two high performance rear tires sharing the one rear wheel. Due to its three-wheel design, the Electric/Hybrid Vehicle is classified as a motorcycle.

Going Concern and Cash Requirements
The Company’s consolidated financial statements have been 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, 2010, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $(45,120,210), a working capital deficit of $(15,057,791) and cash and cash equivalents (including restricted cash) of $133,861. Additionally, the Company used cash in operations of $(5,185,067) during the year ended December 31, 2010. At March 31, 2011, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $(46,625,595), a working capital deficit of $(16,545,239) and cash and cash equivalents (including restricted cash) of $154,070. Additionally, the Company used cash in operations of $(803,136) for the three months

Table of Contents
ended March 31, 2011. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time. Management has been and plans to continue to implement its cost reduction strategy for material, production and service costs. Until management achieves its cost reduction strategy and is able to generate sales to realize the benefits of the strategy, and sufficiently increases cash flow from operations, the Company will require additional capital to meet working capital requirements, debt service, research and development, capital requirements and compliance requirements.
On May 19, 2011, the Company completed a public offering of its securities. Management has been implementing cost reduction strategies and believes that its cash from operations, together with the net proceeds of the offering, will be sufficient to allow the Company to continue as a going concern through at least December 31, 2011. As such, the consolidated financial statements included elsewhere herein do not include any adjustments that might result in the event the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.
The Company anticipates that it will pursue raising additional debt or equity financing to fund its new product development and expansion plans. The Company cannot make any assurances that management’s cost reduction strategies will be effective or that any additional financing will be completed on a timely basis, on acceptable terms or at all. Management’s inability to successfully implement its cost reduction strategies or to complete any other financing will adversely impact the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

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
We have a history of losses and we expect to continue to have additional net losses in the near future, which could cause the value of our securities to decline and may even cause our business to fail.
We have generated net losses since our inception in March 2006. Our net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2011 was approximately $(641,000). Our net losses for the years ended December 31, 2010, 2009, 2008 and 2007 were approximately $(8.3 million), $(6.7 million), $(12.3 million) and $(8.6 million), respectively. A large portion of our expenses are fixed, and accordingly, we will need to significantly increase our sales in order to achieve profitability. We anticipate that we will continue to generate losses in the near future, and the rate at which we will incur losses could continue or even increase in future periods from current levels as a result of any of the following:
• | We may be unable to increase sales sufficiently to recognize economies of scale; | |
• | We may be unable to successfully expand into other private security markets or achieve broad brand recognition for our products; | |
• | We may be unable to reduce our costs or experience unanticipated costs or expenses in connection with our current development, marketing and manufacturing plans; | |
• | We may encounter technological challenges in connection with the development, introduction or manufacturing of enhancements to our existing vehicles or in the addition of new products; and | |
• | We may be unable to obtain sufficient components or materials used in our products due to capital constraints, which could adversely effect our sales, our reputation and credibility. |
To date, we have financed our operations primarily through equity and debt financing. Because we anticipate additional net losses in the near future, we believe we will likely require additional financings subsequent to the May public offering. Our ability to arrange future financing from third parties will depend upon our perceived performance and market conditions as well as the ability to obtain the consent from at least our 67% in interest of certain major investors that acquired our Class H and Class I warrants in connection with our recent public offering. Our inability to raise additional working capital on a timely basis, on acceptable terms or at all would negatively impact our business and operations, which could cause the price of our common stock to decline. It could also lead to the reduction or suspension of our operations and ultimately force us to go out of business.
If we are unable to continue as a going concern, our securities will have little or no value.
The report of our independent registered public accounting firm that accompanies our audited consolidated financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009 contains a going concern qualification in which such firm expressed substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. In addition to our history of losses, our accumulated deficit as of March 31, 2011, December 31, 2010 and 2009 was approximately $(46.6 million), $(45.1 million) and $ (33.1 million), respectively. At March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, we had a working capital deficit of $(16.5 million) and $(15.1 million), respectively, and cash and cash equivalents (including restricted cash) of $154,070 and $133,861, respectively.
While management plans to continue to implement a cost reduction strategy and is seeking to increase our cash flow from operations, we cannot assure you that we will be successful in this regard. Since inception, we have used cash in excess of operating revenues. Until management achieves its cost reduction strategy and is able to generate significantly higher sales to realize the benefits of the strategy, and significantly increase our cash flow from operations, we may require additional capital to meet our working capital requirements, achieve our expansion

plans and fund our research and development. We plan to continue to raise additional equity or debt financing to meet our working capital requirements, including the use of $9.6 million in net proceeds generated from our recently closed public offering. If we fail as a going concern, our shares of common stock will hold little or no value.
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, who has significantly contributed to the design and manufacturing of substantially all of our products and Kelly Anderson, our Chief Financial Officer. 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.
Our future growth is dependent upon the public’s willingness to accept electric vehicles.
Our future growth is largely dependent upon the adoption by the public of, and we are subject to an elevated risk of any reduced demand for, alternative fuel vehicles in general and electric vehicles in particular. If the market for electric vehicles does not develop as we expect or develops more slowly than we expect, our business, prospects, financial condition and operating results will be harmed. The market for electric vehicles is relatively new, rapidly evolving, characterized by rapidly changing technologies, price competition, additional competitors, evolving government regulation and industry standards, frequent new vehicle announcements and changing consumer demands and behaviors. Factors that may influence the adoption of electric vehicles, include:
• | perceptions about electric vehicle quality, safety (in particular with respect to lithium-ion battery packs), design, performance and cost, especially if adverse events or accidents occur that are linked to the quality or safety of electric vehicles; | |
• | perceptions about vehicle safety in general, and in particular safety issues that may be attributed to the use of advanced technology; | |
• | the range over which electric vehicles may be driven on a single battery charge; | |
• | the decline of an electric vehicle’s range resulting from deterioration over time in the battery’s ability to hold a charge; | |
• | improvements in the fuel economy of the internal combustion engine; | |
• | volatility in the cost of oil and gasoline; | |
• | access to charging stations, standardization of electric vehicle charging systems and consumers’ perceptions about convenience and cost to charge an electric vehicle; | |
• | concerns that extreme temperatures, cold or hot, could reduce the performance of the electric vehicle or life of the batteries included in such vehicles; | |
• | the availability of tax and other governmental incentives to purchase and operate electric vehicles or future regulation requiring increased use of nonpolluting vehicles; and | |
• | macroeconomic factors. |
Additionally, we may become subject to regulations that may require us to alter the design of our vehicles, which could negatively impact the public’s interest in our vehicles or increase the cost to manufacture such vehicles. The influence of any of the factors described above may cause current or potential customers not to purchase our electric vehicles, which would materially adversely affect our business, operating results, financial condition and prospects.

Table of Contents
We may become subject to product liability claims, which could harm our financial condition and liquidity if we are not able to successfully defend or insure against such claims.
The motor vehicle industry in general has historically been subject to a large number of product liability claims in recent years due to the nature of personal injuries that can result from accidents or malfunctions. We face an inherent risk of exposure to claims in the event people fail to use our vehicles for their intended purposes or if owners fail to use or care for them properly. These accidents can also occur as a result of user error or inadequate training, through no fault of the manufacturer of the vehicle. A successful product liability claim against us could require us to pay a substantial monetary award. We maintain product liability insurance for all our vehicles with annual limits of approximately $2.0 million on a claims made basis, but we cannot assure that our insurance will be sufficient to cover all potential product liability claims. Any lawsuit seeking significant monetary damages either in excess of our coverage, or outside of our coverage, may have a material adverse effect on our business and financial condition. We may not be able to secure additional product liability insurance coverage on commercially acceptable terms or at reasonable costs when needed, particularly if we do face liability for our products and are forced to make a claim under our policy. In addition, a product liability claim could generate substantial negative publicity about our vehicles and business, and inhibit or prevent commercialization of other future vehicles, which would have a material adverse effect on our brand, business, prospects, financial condition and operating results.
While our products are tested for quality, our products nevertheless may fail to meet customer expectations fromtime-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. 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.
If our suppliers fail to consistently provide high quality parts and components or fail to comply with applicable laws and regulations, our brand image could be harmed due to negative publicity.
We rely on independent suppliers to source most of our T3 Series products and to conduct most of the manufacturing process for our products. We have to rely on our suppliers to continue to provide the highest quality electric vehicles and operate with integrity. Because we do not control the operations of our suppliers, we cannot guarantee their compliance with ethical business practices, such as environmental responsibility, fair wage practices, and compliance with child labor laws, among others. A lack of demonstrated compliance could lead us to seek alternative suppliers, which could increase our costs and result in delayed delivery of our products, product shortages or other disruptions of our operations. If our suppliers do not comply with laws or fail to control the quality of products supplied, it could result in negative publicity for us and diminish our brand.
If the purchasers of our vehicles customize our vehicles or change the charging infrastructure with aftermarket products, the vehicle may not operate properly, which could adversely impact our reputation and harm our business.
Purchasers of our vehicles may seek to modify their existing vehicles, which could adversely impact the performance of the vehicles and could compromise vehicle safety systems. Also, if customers customize their vehicles with after-market parts or change the charging infrastructure, such parts may compromise driver safety. We have not tested, nor do we endorse such changes or parts. Such unauthorized modifications could reduce the safety of our vehicles and any injuries resulting from such modifications could result in adverse publicity, which would negatively affect our brand and harm our business, prospects, financial condition and operating results.

Adverse conditions in the global economy and disruption in financial markets could impair our revenues.
As widely reported, financial markets in the United States, Europe, the Middle East, Latin America and Asia have been experiencing extreme disruption in recent months, including, among other things, extreme volatility in security prices, severely diminished liquidity and credit availability, rating downgrades of certain investments and declining valuations of others. These conditions have already impaired our ability to access credit markets and finance operations. There can be no assurance that there will not be a further deterioration in financial markets and confidence in major economies. We have been, and may continue to be, impacted by these economic developments, both domestically and globally. We believe that the current tightening of credit in financial markets has adversely affected the ability of our customers and suppliers to obtain financing for significant purchases and operations, and could result in a decrease in orders for our products and services. Similarly, the downturn has resulted in budgetary constraints and delays in government funding, which we believe has also adversely affected the ability of certain law enforcement agencies and police departments to fund additional capital equipment purchases. These economic conditions may negatively impact us as some of our customers defer purchasing decisions, thereby lengthening our sales cycles. Our customers’ ability to pay for our products and services may also be impaired, which may lead to an increase in our allowance for doubtful accounts and write-offs of accounts receivable. Our net revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2011 decreased approximately $153,000 from the comparable period in 2010. Our net revenues in fiscal year 2010 were relatively flat as compared to 2009. Net revenues in 2009 decreased $2.9 million from 2008 due in part to many of the foregoing factors, which factors may continue to affect our revenues and operating results in future periods.
Our markets are highly competitive, and if we are unable to compete effectively, or demonstrate a perceived advantage for our products over traditional means of transportation, our business will be adversely affected.
We compete with other manufacturers of electric vehicles, as well as other traditional modes of transportation, such as bicycles, cars and motorcycles. 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 or gaining broad market acceptance for our products. 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 expanded our marketing, distribution, and sales efforts to include the Middle East, Canada, Mexico, South Africa, South America and Europe. As a result, we are exposed 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; and | |
• | inability to obtain, maintain or enforce intellectual property rights. |
Our prospects for sales growth and profitability will be adversely affected if we have product replacement issues, or if we otherwise fail to maintain product quality and product performance at an acceptable cost.
We will be able to expand our net sales and to achieve, sustain and enhance profitable operations only if we succeed in maintaining the quality and performance of our products. If we should not be able to producehigh-quality products at standard manufacturing rates and yields, unit costs may be higher. In recent periods, we have occasionally had to replace components of existing products. For instance, we are voluntarily replacing external chargers due to the fact that the chargers could fail over time. This may adversely affect our reputation with potential customers. We have increased our warranty reserve accordingly. Because the establishment of reserves is an inherently uncertain process involving estimates of the number of future claims and the cost to settle claims, our ultimate losses may exceed our warranty reserve. Future increases to the warranty reserve would have an adverse effect on our profitability in the periods in which we make such increases. Additional product replacement issues could materially affect our business as it could increase cost of sales as a result of increased warranty service costs, reduce customer confidence on our products, reduce sales revenue, or increase product liability claims.
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 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 for working capital requirements, among other transactions, including advances from related parties. Our Audit Committee is responsible for reviewing our related party transactions. 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, financial condition or prospects. 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, financial condition or prospects. For instance, our revenues for the six months ended December 31, 2010 and three months ended March 31, 2011 were adversely affected by vendor supply issues, which we believe was due to reduced vendor staffing and their inability to respond to our orders coupled with our inadequate cash flow which resulted in certain vendors requiring terms to be cash in advance.
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 andsub-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 substantialperiod-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.
Our success is 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
11
Table of Contents
and hold three trademarks registered with the United States Patent and Trademark Office and have five patent applications filed. 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 stockholders.
At June 6, 2011, our directors and executive officers controlled at least 61.0% of our outstanding shares of common 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, owns 29.3% of the outstanding shares of common stock and Vision Opportunity Master Fund, Ltd. and Vision Capital Advantage Fund (collectively, “Vision”) owns 31.7%. Vision and Mr. Nam were also among the major investors that, as part of our recent public offering, were granted certain contractual rights regarding dilutive financings and certain change of control transactions, and together with their common stock holdings, could have a substantial impact on matters requiring the vote of the stockholders, 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 stockholders and us. This control could adversely affect the voting and other rights of our other stockholders and could depress the market price of our common stock.
Risks Relating Ownership of Our Securities
If a significant 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 significant public market for our common stock develops, we expect the market price of our common stock to fluctuate substantially for the foreseeable future, primarily 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; | |
• | liquidity; | |
• | actions by our stockholders; | |
• | changes in our cash flow from operations or earning estimates; | |
• | changes in market valuations of similar companies; |
12
Table of Contents
• | 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.
As of June 8, 2011, 12,880,978 shares of common stock, warrants for the purchase of 4,942,557, 4,942,557, 831,373, 198,764, 12,000 and 27,478 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $3.00, $3.50, $5.00, $7.00, $15.40 and $16.50 per share, respectively, are outstanding.
In addition, we intend to file a registration statement onForm S-8 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, to register approximately 1,017,000 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 May 31, 2011, there were 966,350 options outstanding, of which 330,808 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 150,000,000 shares of common stock and 20,000,000 shares of preferred stock. Our board of directors is entitled to issue shares of preferred stock with rights, preferences and privileges that are senior to our common stock. The power of the board of directors to issue additional securities is generally not subject to stockholder 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.
Furthermore, these financings may require the consent of a supermajority in interest of certain major purchasers of our recent Class H and Class I warrants. If we are unable to obtain such consent, we may be unable to obtain such financing and our ability to operate our business will be adversely affected.
13
Table of Contents
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 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 holding less than 25% of the outstanding voting shares from calling special meetings; and | |
• | 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. |
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.
Furthermore, certain mergers where stockholders may receive cash or non-publicly traded securities require the consent of a supermajority in interest of certain major purchasers of our recent Class H and Class I warrants. If we are unable to obtain such consent, we may be unable to obtain consummate mergers or sales of our company that may be favorable to stockholders. Such provisions could also deter potential buyers from initiating an offer.
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.
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.
We cannot predict the extent to which an active public market for our common stock will develop or be sustained. Our common stock is listed on the NYSE Amex, LLC, (“AMEX”), but, we cannot assure that you will obtain sufficient liquidity in your holdings of our common stock.
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 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.

Table of Contents
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 onquarter-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 date of this prospectus, certain of our stockholders may be eligible to sell all or some of their shares of our 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 the date of this prospectus.
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 may have a material adverse effect on the market price of our Common Stock.
There is no guarantee that our securities will remain listed on AMEX.
Our common stock is listed on AMEX. Such listing, however, is not guaranteed. If we do not meet AMEX continued listing requirements, our common stock could be delisted. Therefore, it may be difficult to sell your shares of common stock if you desire to need to sell them. Our underwriters from the recent public offering of our securities are not obligated to make a market in our securities, and even after making a market, can discontinue market making at any time without notice. Neither we nor the underwriters can provide any assurance that an active or liquid trading market in our securities will develop or, if developed, that the market will continue.
Our liquidity of our common stock and market capitalization could be adversely affected by the recent reverse stock split.
We recently consummated a1-for-10 reverse stock split on May 16, 2011. The reverse stock split may be viewed negatively by the market and, consequently, can lead to a decrease in our price per share and overall market capitalization. If the per share market price does not increase proportionately as a result of the reverse stock split, then our value as measured by our market capitalization will be reduced, perhaps significantly.

DIVIDEND POLICY
We have never declared or paid any cash dividends on our common stock. We currently intend to retain all future earnings for the operation and expansion of our business and, therefore, we do not anticipate declaring or paying cash dividends in the foreseeable future. In addition, we are subject to several covenants under our debt arrangements that place restrictions on our ability to pay dividends. Other than such restrictions, the payment of dividends will be at the discretion of our Board of Directors and will depend on our results of operations, capital requirements, financial condition, prospects, contractual arrangements, any limitations on payment of dividends present in our current and future debt agreements, and other factors that our Board of Directors may deem relevant.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION
We are required to pay certain fees and expenses that we incur incident to the registration of the securities for resale. As used in this prospectus, “selling stockholders” includes the selling stockholders named in the table above and pledgees, donees, transferees or othersuccessors-in-interest selling shares received from a named selling stockholder as a gift, partnership distribution or other non-sale-related transfer after the date of this prospectus. The selling stockholders may, from time to time, sell any or all of their securities on the AMEX or any other market on which the price of our shares of common stock are quoted 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. The selling stockholders will act independently of us in making decisions with respect to the timing, manner and size of each sale. A selling stockholder may use any one or more of the following methods when selling securities:
• | 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; | |
• | a combination of any such methods of sale; | |
• | through the writing or settlement of options or other hedging transactions, whether through an options exchange or otherwise; or | |
• | any other method permitted pursuant to applicable law. |
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 us 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 (8.0%).
21
Table of Contents
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. 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.
The 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 Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (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).
We have agreed to indemnify certain selling stockholders against certain losses, claims, damages and liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act.

BUSINESS
Overview
T3 Motion designs, manufactures and markets personal mobility vehicles powered by electric motors. Our initial product is the T3 Series, which is a three wheel, electricstand-up vehicle (“ESV”) powered by a quiet, zero-gas emission electric motor that is designed specifically for public and private security personnel. Substantially all of our revenues to date have been derived from sales of the T3 Series ESVs and related accessories.
The T3 Series has received recognition for its iconic design, including the Innovation Award for Best Vehicle at the 2007 International Association of Chiefs of Police (“IACP”) Convention and the Spark Award in the Vehicle Mobility category at the 2007 International Spark Design Awards. The T3 Series has been featured on television and print media being deployed by professionals in law enforcement and the private security industry due to its innovative design and convenient access. The elevated nine inch raised platform provides the officer with a command presence, allowing the public to be aware of the officer’s presence, while providing the officer with a better vantage point to evaluate any situation. By using a T3 Series ESV, an officer can effectively patrol a larger area than on foot or riding a bicycle, and enables the officer to safely and quickly maneuver in crowded pedestrian areas or other areas where cars and other standard modes of transportation cannot access easily, if at all. The T3 Series also improves the officer’s approachability with the public as a result of its design and open platform that allow the officer to interact with pedestrians more easily than is possible while patrolling by automobile, motorcycle or horseback.
We were incorporated in Delaware in 2006 and introduced our first T3 Series vehicles in early 2007. We currently sell our products in the U.S. directly and through distributors, and also market our T3i Series ESV (the international version of our T3 Series) in the Middle East, Mexico, Canada, Asia, South Africa, South America and Europe.
Market and Industry Overview
Personal transportation vehicles in the United States have become a necessity with law enforcement and government agencies, university campuses, airports, shopping malls, events/promotions, military/government, and industrial areas. Personal transportation vehicles provide officers improved response times to areas that were previously unavailable to automated transportation. The security market has experienced a growing need for rapid response along with the need to control costs. Similar needs exist in the international market.
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 Series is positioned to take advantage of this trend.
In the U.S., the increase in homeland security spending since 9/11 has been substantial. The Department of Homeland Security Grant Program has awarded $1.7 billion to municipalities for equipment acquisition and emergency preparedness in 2009. We have an opportunity to capture a portion of this market created by police department purchases of police cars, associated upgrades, bicycles and other security equipment purchased with funds from the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS).
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 search for cost-effective patrol solutions, T3 Motion will continue to provide solutions to this market. According to the U.S. Bureau of Justice, as of 2007, there were 1,017,984 full-time state and local law enforcement personnel. This is a decrease of 5.5% from 2004.
College and University Campuses. According to the U.S. Department of Education2007-2008, there were more than 4,200 higher education institutions in the United States.
High Schools. According to the National Center for Educational Statistics, in 2008, there are over 20,620 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 the Department of Defense, there were approximately 5,300 military basesand/or military warehouses globally in 2007, which includes Army, Navy, Air Force, USMC and WHS institutions. The Department of Defense also managed over 577,000 physical plants worldwide located on over 32 million acres in the U.S. and 39 foreign countries as of 2007. At least 1,000 are believed to be bases and or military installations, of which 823 are located worldwide that the U.S. operates or controls. With total military personnel deployed in the U.S. and U.S. overseas territories estimated to be over 1.4 million as of 2007, the need to provide security and other activities, including the need to move people within large areas is significant. The T3 Series is currently patrolling high-profile government facilities and military bases such as Andrews Air Force Base and the Smithsonian Institution.
Airports. According to the U.S. Department of Transportation, in 2008 there were 19,930 airports in the U.S. Of these, there were 5,202 public use airports, 14,451 private use airports and 550 certified airports (Certified airports serve air-carriers operations with aircraft seating more than 30 passengers).
Port Security. In the post-9/11 era, according to DHS, February 2006 press release, funding for port security has increased more than 700%. DHS spent over $1.6 billion in 2005 for port security. Additionally, in 2009, an additional $150 million of funding was approved by the DHS.
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 NASCO, makes private security companies a top funding priority for the federal government.
Manufacturing and Industrial Firms. According to the 2007 U.S. Census Bureau report there are 293,919 manufacturing establishments in the U.S. that have more than 13.3 million employees.
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.
We believe we have the opportunity to provide a unique security solution for these markets. The T3 Series and the T3i Series meet the patrol needs of officers with the added benefit of reducing costs of operation. The T3 Series and T3i Series cost less than 10 cents a day to charge and allow the officer to patrol a larger area than if they were walking.
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, Building A is a leased 34,000 square foot facility that is home to the executive staff and sales staff and is our main operational and manufacturing location.

Growth Strategies
Our mission is to become the leader in clean energy, personal, professional mobility electricstand-up vehicles, and to continue providing products that are economical, functional, safe, dependable and meet the needs of the professional end user. We plan to pursue the following growth strategies in pursuit of our mission:
• | Capitalize on broader private security opportunities. Our initial focus on the law enforcement market has increased the demand for the T3 Series and T3i Series ESV from other security markets, which may hold equal, if not greater, potential for our products. We plan to focus our marketing efforts to pursue the sale of our products into private security markets, which could include corporate campuses, manufacturing facilities, government facilities, military bases, shopping malls, airports and events/promotions. | |
• | Increase our branding in law enforcement. We intend to continue to build on our reputation within the law enforcement community and plan to pursue additional branding activities in this regard. We believe that maintaining a strong brand within the law enforcement community will facilitate our expansion into other private security markets. | |
• | Pursue international expansion. We believe the international markets represent a significant opportunity to expand our current sales. We plan to continue to expand our presence in our existing international markets, and to pursue adding new distributors to increase our sales in Asia and Europe. | |
• | Expand the T3 Series product line to address broader markets. We believe the modularity of oursub-systems may be used to configure additional vehicles that address the personal transportation and personal mobility requirements in existing and new markets. We plan to evaluate the expansion of our product line to leverage our technologies for additional commercial markets such as for delivery services, property management, utility and maintenance providers, in addition to any other private venue requiring security. | |
• | Leverage our brand into the consumer market. As we gain additional brand name recognition, we plan to leverage our brand to enter the consumer market for personal transportation. We are currently working on the development of the Electric/Hybrid Vehicle to address the consumer markets and plan to evaluate the expansion of our product line for other consumer applications. |
Marketing and Distribution
We market and sell our products through our direct sales force located at our headquarters in Costa Mesa, California. We have agreements with numerous domestic and international distributors and manufacturer’s representatives, adding substantially to our direct sales force. We plan to continue to expand our international sales by engaging additional distributors in new and existing markets, particularly in Asia and Europe. Our standard distribution agreements provide for the right to distribute our vehicle and accessories within defined geographic locations and defined markets. Our distribution agreements allow the distributor to purchase our products at set prices, however, generally there is no requirement that the distributors meet a minimum order quantity. Our distribution agreements usually can be cancelled by either party upon 30 days prior written notice.
We value our customer input as we are a customer-driven company. We generally follow a fundamental approach using the following core customer interests:
• | We evaluate the available budget from the customer, building the value of the product rather than price. | |
• | Return on Investment (ROI). Our products have demonstrated significant operational savings over gas powered vehicles and allow the end user greater mobility and work efficiencies. | |
• | We strive to maintain a manufacturing process that generally holds lead times to approximately a 4 to 6 week timeframe. | |
• | We have 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. |

• | Our vehicle has demonstrated that the iconic look and command presence has a crime deterrent ability. | |
• | The T3 Series and T3i Series ESVs allow the user greater mobility to maneuver through crowds and tight areas than other vehicles such as motorcycles, effectively increasing the patrol area and granting the user job efficiencies. |
Sources and Availability of Raw Materials; Principal Suppliers
Currently, over 70% of our T3 Series suppliers are local suppliers who provide products and services to low volume early stage development companies. As the vehicle design has become stable and sales volumes have increased, we have begun our transition to incorporate a global supply chain. We have made significant progress in establishing relationships with suppliers who service volume production stage companies. In addition, we plan to invest in production tooling that will yield consistent high quality and lower cost parts designed to our specifications. We plan to implement our multi-source supply chain strategy in working directly with established factories within the automotive and motorcycle industry. The supply chain could 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, California for final assembly, test, inspection, and shipments to our customers. We plan to continue to expand this multiple source supplier base to allow us to utilize both current U.S. based suppliers and newly acquired global suppliers to reduce the risks of our existing single sourced components and reduce product costs.
We do not manufacture the CT Micro Car. Fully-built versions are delivered to us from the developer and manufacturer, CT&T, a Korean electric car manufacturer. We outfit the CT Micro Car with our power management and battery technologies.
Operating and Manufacturing Strategy
Our management and engineering teams have experience working with off-shore manufacturers and believe there are advantages of partnering with reputable off-shore suppliers to access reliable manufacturing practices at lower labor cost. Our staff continuously seeks out new qualified suppliers and we evaluate suppliers for the maximum benefit that can be realized. We generally seek suppliers and manufacturers with a well established history of supplying quality products within their respective industries, a trained and experienced technical work force, state of the art facilities and knowledge of all aspects of supply chain management, operational execution, global logistics and reverse logistics.
Competition
We currently compete with other providers of personal mobility vehicle including, without limitation, Segway, California Motors-Ride Vehicles and Gorilla Vehicles, but also compete with other forms of transportation such as bicycles, horses and standard police cars.
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 ourselves 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, private security, and government.

Preproduction Plastics, Inc. v. T3 Motion., Inc. Ki Nam and Jason Kim(Orange County Superior Court CaseNo. 30.2009-00125358): On June 30, 2009, Preproduction Plastics, Inc. (“Plaintiff”) filed suit in Orange County Superior Court, alleging causes of actions against T3 Motion, Inc., Ki Nam, the Company’s CEO, and Jason Kim, the Company’s former COO (collectively the “Defendants”) for breach of contract, conspiracy, fraud and common counts, arising out of a purchase order allegedly executed between Plaintiff and the Company. On August 24, 2009, Defendants filed a Demurrer to the Complaint. Prior to the hearing on the Demurrer, Plaintiff filed a First Amended Complaint against Defendants for breach of contract, fraud and common counts, seeking compensatory damages of $470,599, attorney’s fees, punitive damages, interest and costs. On October 27, 2009, Defendants filed a Demurrer, challenging various causes of action in the First Amended Complaint. The Court denied the Demurrer on December 4, 2009. On December 21, 2009, Defendants filed an answer to the First Amended Complaint, and trial was set for July 30, 2010. On or about July 29, 2010, the case was settled in its entirety. The Company agreed to pay compensatory damages, attorneys’ fees and costs totaling $493,468, through monthly payments of $50,000, with 6% interest accruing from the date of the settlement. Periodic payments are expected to be made through May 2011. The first payment of $50,000 was made on August 3, 2010 and subsequent principal payments totaling $200,000 were made by the Company through December 31, 2010. The Company recorded the entire settlement amount of $493,468 as a note payable, $470,599 as a deposit on fixed assets and the remaining $22,869 as a charge to legal expense. At December 31, 2010, the remaining settlement amount of $243,468 is recorded as a note payable in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet. The Company has recorded accrued interest of $4,126 at December 31, 2010.
Commencing January 1, 2011, the Company has failed to make the scheduled payments required by the July 29, 2010 settlement agreement and stipulation for entry of judgment. The Plaintiff then filed a motion for entry of judgment pursuant to the terms of the July 29, 2010 settlement agreement, and stipulation for entry of judgment, which if granted, would cause the acceleration of all amounts owed under the settlement agreement. While the motion has been pending, the Company has made principal payments totaling $150,000. This motion is now scheduled to be heard on June 16, 2011.

Mr. Nam has elected to defer payment of this amount until the next round of funding is received by the Company.
Intangible Assets
On March 31, 2008, the Company entered into a purchase agreement with Immersive, one of the Company’s stockholders, for a GeoImmersive License Agreement, pursuant to which Immersive granted the Company the right to resell data in the Immersive mapping database. The Company paid Immersive $1,000,000 for the license.
On March 16, 2009, the Company revised the terms of the agreement to revise the start of the two year license to begin upon the completion and approval of the post-production data. The revision includes automatic one-year renewals unless either party cancels within 60 days of the end of the contract. Upon the execution of the revision, the Company ceased amortizing the license and tested annually for impairment until the post-production of the data is complete. At December 31, 2009, management performed its annual review to assess potential impairment and deemed the intangible asset to be fully impaired, as management decided to allocate the resources required to map the data elsewhere. As a result, the remaining value of $625,000 was fully amortized as of December 31, 2009.
Notes Payable
Immersive Note
On December 31, 2007, the Company issued a 12% secured promissory note in the principal amount of $2,000,000 to Immersive. On March 31, 2008, the Company repaid $1,000,000 of the principal amount. The note was originally due December 31, 2008 and was subsequently amended so that it is secured by all of the Company’s assets.
In connection with the issuance of the promissory note, the Company issued a warrant to Immersive for the purchase of 69,764 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $10.80 per share. The warrants are immediately exercisable. The Company recorded a debt discount of $485,897 related to the fair value of the warrants, which was calculated using the Black-Scholes Merton option pricing model. The debt discount was amortized to interest expense over the original term of the promissory note.

First Amendment to Immersive Note
On December 19, 2008, the Company amended the terms of the promissory note with Immersive to, among other things, extend the maturity date of the outstanding balance of $1,000,000 from December 31, 2008 to March 31, 2010 and give Immersive the option to convert the promissory note during the pendency and prior to the closing of an equity offering into units of the Company’s securities at an original conversion price of $16.50 per unit. Each unit consists of one share of the Company’s common stock and a warrant to purchase a share of the Company’s common stock at $20.00 per share. In the event the Company issues common stock or common stock equivalents for cash consideration in a subsequent financing at an effective price per share less than the original conversion price, the conversion price will reset. The amended terms of the note resulted in terms that were substantially different from the terms of the original note. As a result, the modification was treated as an extinguishment of debt during the year ended December 31, 2008. There was no gain or loss recognized in connection with the extinguishment. At the date of the amendment, the Company did not record the value of the conversion feature as the conversion option is contingent on a future event.
In December 2009, the Company issued 2,000,000 shares of its Series A convertible preferred stock (“Preferred Stock”) in connection with an equity offering. As a result of the December 2009 equity offering, the Company recorded the estimated fair value of the conversion feature of $1,802 as a debt discount and amortized such amount to interest expense through the maturity of the note on March 31, 2010. The Company recorded the corresponding amount as a derivative liability and any change in fair value of the conversion feature was recorded through earnings.
As consideration for extending the terms of the promissory note in December 2008, the Company agreed to issue warrants to Immersive for the purchase of up to 25,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $20.00 per share, subject to adjustment. For every three months that the promissory note is outstanding, the Company issued Immersive a warrant to purchase 5,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. During the year ended December 31, 2009, the Company issued warrants to Immersive to purchase 20,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. The Company recorded a debt discount of $139,778 based on the estimated fair value of the warrants issued during the year ended December 31, 2009. As a result of the December 2009 equity offering, the exercise price of the warrants was adjusted to $5.00 per share. During the year ended December 31, 2010, the Company issued the remaining 5,000 warrants under the note. The Company recorded an additional debt discount of $15,274 based on the estimated fair value of the 5,000 warrants issued during the year ended December 31, 2010.
During the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, the Company amortized $56,539 and $99,043, respectively, of the debt discounts to interest expense. As of March 31, 2010, prior to the second amendment to the Immersive note (see below), the debt discounts were fully amortized to interest expense.
Second Amendment to Immersive Note
On March 31, 2010, Immersive agreed to extend the note to April 30, 2010. As consideration for extending the note, the Company agreed to exchange Immersive’s Class A warrants to purchase up to 69,764 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $10.80 per share and its Class D warrants to purchase up to 25,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at an adjusted exercise price of $7.00 per share, for Class G warrants to purchase up to 69,764 shares and 25,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, respectively, each with an exercise price of $7.00 per share. The Company recorded a debt discount and derivative liability of $1,898 based on the incremental increase in the estimated fair value of the re-pricing of the 25,000 warrants. The Company recorded an additional debt discount and derivative liability in the amount of $216,811 based on the estimated fair value of the 69,764 warrants issued. The total debt discount was amortized in April 2010. The amended terms did not result in terms that were substantially different from the terms of the original note. Therefore, there was no extinguishment of debt as a result of the second amendment.
The note and accrued interest were not repaid in full by April 30, 2010. As a result, per the agreement, the maturity date was extended to March 31, 2011 and the Company issued Class G warrants to purchase up to 104,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $7.00 per share. The interest rate which compounds annually, was also amended to 15.0%. The Company recorded interest expense of $140,000 and $120,000, related to the stated rate of interest during the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively, and
43
Table of Contents
had accrued interest of $110,000 and $0 at December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. The terms of the Class G warrants issued to Immersive are substantially similar to prior Class G warrants issued by the Company. The Company recorded a debt discount of $329,120 related to the fair value of the warrants issued. Amortization of this debt discount was $220,241 for the year ended December 31, 2010, resulting in an unamortized debt discount balance of $108,879 at December 31, 2010.
Third Amendment to Immersive Note
On March 31, 2011, Immersive agreed to extend the note to April 30, 2011. As consideration for extending the note, the Company agreed to increase the interest rate to 19% per annum compounded annually commencing on April 1, 2011.
Fourth Amendment to Immersive Note
On May 4, 2011, Immersive agreed to extend the note to May 20, 2011. All terms of the note remain the same.
On May 19, 2011, the Company paid the note in its entirety including all accrued interest.

As noted below, these 10% Debentures were cancelled in connection with the December 30, 2009 financing with Vision.

Vision is obligated to elect the Exchange on a $0.90 per $1.00 basis (not a $1.00 for $1.00 basis) if certain conditions regarding the Subsequent Financing and other matters are met.
Also pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, Vision received Class G common stock purchase warrants (the “Class G Warrants”).

On December 31, 2010, the Company and The Vision Parties amended the Debenture to extend the maturity date from December 31, 2010 to March 31, 2011. All other provisions of the Debenture remained unchanged. The amended terms of the Debenture did not result in terms that were substantially different from the terms of the original Debenture, therefore there was no extinguishment of debt.
December 31, 2010 — Exchange Agreement
On December 31, 2010, the Company entered into a securities exchange agreement with Vision pursuant to which the Company exchanged 350,000 Class G Warrants into 210,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. On the date of the exchange, the warrants were classified as derivative liabilities and had an estimated fair value of $1,208,478 and the shares of the Company’s common stock were valued at the fair market price of $4.00 per share for a total value of $840,000, resulting in a gain on the transaction of $368,478, which was recorded in other income.
Debt Discounts and Amortization
The debt discount recorded on the December 30, 2009 Debentures was allocated between the warrants and conversion feature in the amount of $1,077,652 and $1,549,481, respectively. In addition, the Company recorded an additional debt discount during the year ended December 31, 2010 of $275,676 (see above).

Debenture Amendment and Conversion Agreement
On March 31, 2011, the Company entered into a Debenture Amendment and Conversion Agreement (the “Debenture Agreement”) with Vision to further amend the 10% Senior Secured Convertible Debenture issued to Vision in a private placement (“Debenture”) on December 30, 2009. The Agreement was the second amendment to the Debenture, following the first amendment on December 31, 2010 to extend the maturity date from December 31, 2010 to March 31, 2011.
Under the Debenture Agreement, the maturity date of the Debenture was further extended from March 31, 2011 to June 30, 2011. In addition, the conversion provisions of the Debenture were deleted in their entirety and restated. According to the amended conversion provisions, at the closing of the offering pursuant to this prospectus the Company will issue to Vision, units, each comprised of one share of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share, one warrant substantially identical to the Class H Warrants and one warrant substantially identical to the Class I Warrants, in consideration for the cancellation of $3,500,000 principal amount of the Debenture and accrued interest thereon. The number of units will equal the total amount of principal and interest accrued through the date of the closing divided by the conversion price; provided, however, that the Company will pay cash in lieu of any factional units that would otherwise be issuable upon the conversion.
The conversion is conditioned on, among other things, the execution of a registration rights agreement between the parties in which the Company would agree to register Vision’s units and securities underlying the Units and that the public offering contemplated by this prospectus shall have been declared effective and that such Units shall be trading on the NYSE Amex, LLC.
On May 2, 2011 the parties amended and restated the Debenture Agreement to provide an additional condition to the conversion, that Vision will be entitled to the registered contractual rights offered under this prospectus by entering into a contractual arrangement with the Company regarding dilutive financings and certain change of control transactions as a $500,000 Investor. On May 9, 2011 the parties again restated the Debenture Agreement to provide that the deletion of the current conversion provisions of the Debenture would not take effect until the closing of the offering. On May 19, 2011, Vision converted its note plus accrued interest into 1,138,885 shares of common stock and 1,138,885 Class H warrants and 1,138,885 Class I warrants.

The note is due on March 31, 2012 and allows for an automatic one year extension. During the year ended December 31, 2010, Mr. Nam advanced $1,511,000 to the Company to be used for operating requirements. During October 2010, the Company repaid $390,000 of the advances, leaving a balance of $1,121,000 outstanding as of December 31, 2010. The Company recorded interest expense of $23,756 for the year ended December 31, 2010 and had accrued interest of $23,756 as of December 31, 2010.

The number of units will equal the total amount of principal and interest accrued through May 19, 2011 divided by $3.50; provided, however, that the Company will pay cash in lieu of any fractional units that would otherwise be issuable upon the conversion.

Table of Contents

2009 Note
On March 30, 2009, the Company entered into a loan agreement with Ki Nam, its chairman and CEO, whereby, Mr. Nam agreed to advance the Company up to $1,000,000, including $498,528 that had already been advanced by Mr. Nam for operating capital requirements through December 31, 2008. The line of credit was to remain open until the Company raised $10.0 million in equity. The note bore interest at 10% per annum. In the event the Company received (i) $10,000,000 or more in private placement financing or (ii) $15,000,000 or more in equity financing at any time after the date of the loan, the note was to become immediately due and payable.
In connection with the loan agreement, the Company agreed to issue warrants to Mr. Nam for the purchase of up to 30,303 shares of the Company’s common stock, $0.001 par value per share, at an exercise price of $20.00 per share, subject to adjustment. The total number of warrants to be issued was dependent on the final amount of the loan. During the year ended December 31, 2009, the Company was advanced $414,963, including accrued interest, under the loan agreement. During the year ended December 31, 2009, 27,477 warrants were issued to Mr. Nam pursuant to the terms of the loan agreement. The Company recorded a debt discount of $246,228 related to the estimated fair value of warrants, which was to be amortized as interest expense over the term of the loan agreement. The loan was convertible during the pendency of any current open equity financing round at $16.50 per share, subject to adjustment. Upon conversion, Mr. Nam was to receive additional warrants for the purchase of up to 60,606 shares of the Company’s common stock at $20.00 per share.
In December 2009, the Company issued 2,000,000 shares of its Preferred Stock in connection with an equity offering. As a result of the December 2009 equity offering, the Company recorded the estimated fair value of the conversion feature of $443 as a debt discount, which was to be amortized to interest expense over the remaining term of the loan agreement. The Company recorded the corresponding amount as a derivative liability and any change in fair value of the conversion feature was to be recorded through earnings at each reporting date. The change in fair value of the conversion feature was not significant for the period ended December 31, 2009.
On December 30, 2009, the Company entered into a Securities Exchange Agreement (the “Exchange Agreement”) with Mr. Nam. Under the Exchange Agreement, Mr. Nam agreed to convert the balance of the promissory note, including accrued interest, of $976,865 into 976,865 shares of the Company’s Preferred Stock and warrants to purchase up to 195,373 shares of the Company’s common stock, exercisable at $7.00 per share, subject to adjustment. The ability for Mr. Nam to receive additional warrants for up to 60,606 shares of common stock was cancelled.
In connection with the Exchange Agreement, the Company agreed to convert Mr. Nam’s outstanding debt balance of $976,865 at $5.00 per share, which was below the adjusted conversion price pursuant to the terms of the loan agreement. Pursuant to the conversion terms of the loan agreement, Mr. Nam would have received only 31,310 shares of stock. As a result, the Company issued Mr. Nam 663,767 additional shares of the Company’s Preferred Stock in connection with his debt conversion.
As a result of the Exchange Agreement, the entire debt discount amounting to $246,671 was amortized to interest expense. In addition, as the Company issued shares to Mr. Nam in excess of the number of shares pursuant to the terms of the loan agreement, the Company recorded the fair value of the 663,767 additional shares of Preferred Stock issued as a loss on debt extinguishment. The amount recorded of $663,767 was included in other expense in the accompanying consolidated statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2009.
Lock-Up Agreement
In connection with the Vision financing, Ki Nam, our Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the board of directors of the Company, agreed not to transfer, sell, assign, pledge, hypothecate, give, create a security interest in or lien on, place in trust (voting trust or otherwise), or in any other way encumber or dispose of, directly or indirectly

Debt and Preferred Stock Conversion; Registration Rights;
On May 19, 2001, Mr. Nam converted the 2010 Note plus accrued interest into shares of common stock and Class H and Class I warrants. The terms of the conversion were substantially similar to the terms of Vision’s convertible debentures. Mr. Nam also converted all his (or his affiliated trust’s) preferred stock into common stock. The Company entered into a registration rights agreement with Mr. Nam to register the shares underlying the convertible notes plus shares underlying the Class H and I warrants.

Overview
T3 Motion, Inc. (the “Company”, “we” or “us”) was organized on March 16, 2006, under the laws of the state of Delaware. We develop and manufacture the T3 Series which are electric three-wheelstand-up vehicles that are directly targeted to the public safety and private security markets. T3 Series 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. We continue to design and introduce products based on modularity of the sub systems we have created. In September 2009, we launched our second product, the CT Micro Car . The Micro Car is another product line to sell to our potential and existing customers. In June 2010, we introduced the GT3, a plug-in hybrid consumer vehicle.
Going Concern
The Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared using the accrual method of accounting in accordance with 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 incurred significant operating losses and has used substantial amounts of working capital in its operations since its inception (March 16, 2006). Further, at March 31, 2011, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $(46,625,595), a working capital deficit of $(16,545,239) and cash and cash equivalents (including restricted cash) of $154,070. Additionally, the Company used cash in operations of $(803,136) for the three months ended March 31, 2011. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time.
On May 19, 2011, the Company completed a public offering of its securities generating $11.1 million in gross proceeds (see below). In addition to this financing, management has been implementing cost reduction strategies for material, production and service costs and believes that its cash from operations, together with the net proceeds of the offering, will be sufficient to allow the Company to continue as a going concern through at least December 31, 2011.
Public Offering of the Company’s Equity Securities
On May 16, 2011, the Company announced that it had raised $11.1 million in a public offering of its securities. The offering closed on May 19, 2011, and the Company received net proceeds of $9,678,903 after deducting commissions and offering expenses.
The transaction resulted in the issuance of 3,171,429 units of the Company’s securities. Each unit consists of one share of the Company’s common stock, one Class H warrant and one Class I warrant. Each warrant grants the holder the right to purchase one share of the Company’s common stock. In connection with the offering, the Company effected aone-for-10 reverse stock split of its common stock, which allowed it to meet the minimum share price requirement of the AMEX. The Company has offered contractual rights to investors that either purchase $500,000 or more of our units in the offering or are converting at least $500,000 of existing securities into substantially identical units. We entered into agreements with such investors that grant them approval rights to certain change of control transactions. Such agreements also granted them approval rights, subject to certain exceptions, to financings at a per share purchase price below the exercise price of their warrants.
Debt and Preferred Stock Conversion into Common Stock and Common Stock Equivalent Securities.
In connection with the AMEX listing and the public offering, Vision Opportunity Master Fund, Ltd. and Vision Capital Advantage Fund (collectively “Vision”); and Ki Nam, our Chief Executive Officer, converted their $3.5 million and $2.1 million debentures plus accrued interest, respectively, into 1,138,885 and 632,243 unregistered units. As with the publicly offered units, each unregistered unit consisted of one share of common stock, one Class H warrant and one Class I warrant. The shares, warrants and warrant shares underlying these units are included in this registration statement.

Table of Contents
In connection with the AMEX listing, the Company’s preferred stockholders converted all outstanding Series A Convertible Preferred Stock into 2,872,578 shares of the Company’s common stock. Included in the conversion of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock are shares held by Vision and Mr. Nam of 9,370,698 and 976,865, respectively, which are convertible into 2,340,176 and 243,956 shares of common stock, respectively. These shares of common stock are included in this registration statement.
1-for-10 Reverse Stock Split
The Company effected aone-for-10 reverse stock split of its common stock after the effectiveness of the registration statement and prior to the closing of the May public offering. All information included in this registration statement has been retroactively adjusted to reflect the effect of the reverse stock split.
Lock Up Agreement
On May 16, 2011, Vision and Ki Nam entered intolock-up agreements pursuant to which such parties have agreed not to sell any shares of our common stock for 12 months, subject to exceptions.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Our management’s discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based on our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). 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.
A summary of these policies can be found in the Management’s Discussion and Analysis section of the Company’s Annual Report onForm 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010. The following is an update to the critical accounting policies and estimates.
Concentrations of Credit Risk
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company maintains its non-interest bearing transactional cash accounts at financial institutions for which the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) provides unlimited insurance coverage through December 31, 2012. For interest bearing cash accounts, from time to time, 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 March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the Company did not have cash deposits in excess of the FDIC limit.
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. The Company invests its cash in short-term money market accounts.
Restricted Cash
Under a credit card processing agreement with a financial institution, the Company is required to maintain a security deposit as collateral. The amount of the deposit is at the discretion of the financial institution and as of March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, was $10,000.

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 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 its allowance for doubtful accounts. At March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010 and 2009, the Company had an allowance for doubtful accounts of $47,626, $50,000 and $37,000, respectively. Although the Company expects to collect amounts due, actual collections may differ from the estimated amounts.
As of March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010 and 2009, one, two and two customers accounted for approximately 39%, 51% and 36% of total accounts receivable, respectively. Two customers accounted for approximately 29% and one customer accounted for approximately 12% of net revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. One customer and no single customer accounted for more than 10% of net revenues for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.
Accounts Payable
As of March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010 and 2009, three, one and no vendors accounted for approximately 31%, 10% and more that 10% of total accounts payable, respectively. Two vendors accounted for approximately 51% and 22% of purchases for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. Two vendors and no single vendor each accounted for more than 10% of purchases for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable, related party receivables, accounts payable, accrued expenses, related party payables, note payable, related party notes payable and derivative liabilities. The carrying value for all such instruments except related party notes payable and derivative liabilities approximates fair value due to the short-term nature of the instruments. The Company cannot determine the fair value of its related party notes payable due to the related party nature and because instruments similar to the notes payable could not be found. The Company’s derivative liabilities are recorded at fair value.
The Company determines the fair value of its financial instruments based on a three-level hierarchy for fair value measurements under which these assets and liabilities must be grouped, based on significant levels of observable or unobservable inputs. Observable inputs reflect market data obtained from independent sources, while
unobservable inputs reflect the Company’s market assumptions. This hierarchy requires the use of observable market data when available. These two types of inputs have created the following fair-value hierarchy:
Level 1 — Valuations based on unadjusted quoted market prices in active markets for identical securities. Currently, the Company does not have any items classified as Level 1.
Level 2 — Valuations based on observable inputs (other than Level 1 prices), such as quoted prices for similar assets at the measurement date; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable, either directly or indirectly. Currently the Company does not have any items classified as Level 2.
Level 3 — Valuations based on inputs that are unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement, and involve management judgment. The Company used the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model to determine the fair value of the financial instruments.
If the inputs used to measure fair value fall in different levels of the fair value hierarchy, a financial security’s hierarchy level is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

Revenue Recognition
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 collectibility 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 to customers. The Company ships with either FOB Shipping Point or Destination terms. Shipping documents are used to verify delivery and customer acceptance. For FOB Destination, the Company records revenue when proof of delivery is confirmed by the shipping company. 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 collectibility 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 revenues, while all costs incurred by the Company for shipping and handling are classified as cost of revenues.
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 by 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 Series packages (one T3 Series, 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.
Business Segments
The Company currently only has one reportable business segment due to the fact that the Company derives its revenue primarily from one product. The CT Micro Car is not included in a separate business segment due to nominal net revenues during the three months ended March 31, 2011. The revenue from domestic sales and, international sales are shown below:

Derivative Liabilities
The Company recognizes the accounting standard that provides guidance for determining whether an equity-linked financial instrument, or embedded feature, is indexed to an entity’s own stock. The standard applies to any freestanding financial instruments or embedded features that have the characteristics of a derivative, and to any freestanding financial instruments that are potentially settled in an entity’s own common stock.
During the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, the Company recorded additional debt discount and derivative liabilities of $0 and $15,274, respectively, related to related party notes payable.
During 2010 and 2009, the Company issued 231,000 and 595,373, respectively, of warrants related to the issuance of preferred stock. The Company estimated the fair value of the warrants of $716,236 and $1,740,578 at the
53
Table of Contents
dates of issuance and recorded a derivative liability. The change in fair value of the derivative is recorded through earnings at each reporting date.
During 2010 and 2009, the Company recorded a discount on the issuance of preferred stock and derivative liability of $685,124 and $7,314,273, respectively, related to the anti-dilution provision of the preferred stock issued. The discount is recorded as a deemed dividend with a reduction to retained earnings during the24-month period that the anti-dilution provision is outstanding. The change in fair value of the derivative is recorded through earnings at each reporting date. For the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010 and the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, the amortization of the discounts related to the Preferred Stock anti-dilution provision and warrants issued was $864,800, $1,672,882,$3,730,150 and $6,116, respectively, which was recorded as a deemed dividend.
On March 22, 2010, one of the Company’s preferred shareholders exercised their option to convert their 2,000,000 preferred shares into 400,000 shares of common stock. As a result of the conversion, the Company reclassified the balance of the derivative liability of $1,121,965 to additional paid-in capital and the balance of the discount of $1,099,742, as a deemed dividend.
As of March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the unamortized discount related to the conversion feature of the Preferred Stock was $3,398,268 and $4,263,068, respectively.
Loss Per Share
Basic loss per share is computed by dividing loss applicable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares assumed to be outstanding during the period of computation. Diluted loss per share is computed similar to basic loss 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, warrants and shares associated with the conversion of debt and preferred stock to purchase approximately 5.8 million, 4.9 million, 5.8 million and 5.1 million shares of common stock were outstanding at March 31, 2011 and 2010 and December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively, but were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share due to the net losses for the periods.

Commitments and Contingencies
Preproduction Plastics, Inc. v. T3 Motion., Inc. Ki Nam and Jason Kim(Orange County Superior Court CaseNo. 30.2009-00125358): On June 30, 2009, Preproduction Plastics, Inc. (“Plaintiff”) filed suit in Orange County Superior Court, alleging causes of actions against T3 Motion, Inc., Ki Nam, the Company’s CEO, and Jason Kim, the Company’s former COO (collectively the “Defendants”) for breach of contract, conspiracy, fraud and common counts, arising out of a purchase order allegedly executed between Plaintiff and the Company. On August 24, 2009, Defendants filed a Demurrer to the Complaint. Prior to the hearing on the Demurrer, Plaintiff filed a First Amended Complaint against Defendants for breach of contract, fraud and common counts, seeking compensatory damages of $470,599, attorney’s fees, punitive damages, interest and costs. On October 27, 2009, Defendants filed a Demurrer,
54
Table of Contents
challenging various causes of action in the First Amended Complaint. The Court denied the Demurrer on December 4, 2009. On December 21, 2009, Defendants filed an answer to the First Amended Complaint, and trial was set for July 30, 2010. On or about July 29, 2010, the case was settled in its entirety. The Company agreed to pay compensatory damages, attorneys’ fees and costs totaling $493,468, through monthly payments of $50,000, with 6% interest accruing from the date of the settlement. Periodic payments are expected to be made through May 2011. The first payment of $50,000 was made on August 3, 2010 and subsequent principal payments totaling $200,000 were made by the Company through December 31, 2010. Company recorded the entire settlement amount of $493,468 as a note payable, $470,599 as a deposit on fixed assets and the remaining $22,869 as a charge to legal expense. At December 31, 2010, the remaining settlement amount of $243,468 is recorded as a note payable in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet. The Company has recorded accrued interest of $8,040 and $4,126 at March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively.
Commencing January 1, 2011, the Company has failed to make the scheduled payments required by the July 29, 2010 settlement agreement and stipulation for entry of judgment. The Plaintiff then filed a motion for entry of judgment pursuant to the terms of the July 29, 2010 settlement agreement and stipulation for entry of judgment, which if granted, would cause the acceleration of all amounts owed under the settlement agreement. While the motion has been pending, the Company has made principal payments totaling $150,000. This motion is now scheduled to be heard on June 16, 2011.
In the ordinary course of business, the Company may face various claims brought by third parties in addition to the claim described above and may from time to time, make claims or take legal actions to assert the Company’s rights, including intellectual property rights as well as claims relating to employment and the safety or efficacy of the Company’s products. Any of these claims could subject us to costly litigation and, while the Company generally believes that it has adequate insurance to cover many different types of liabilities, the insurance carriers may deny coverage or the policy limits may be inadequate to fully satisfy any damage awards or settlements. If this were to happen, the payment of such awards could have a material adverse effect on the consolidated operations, cash flows and financial position. Additionally, any such claims, whether or not successful, could damage the Company’s reputation and business. Management believes the outcome of currently pending claims and lawsuits will not likely have a material effect on the consolidated operations or financial position.

Net revenues. Net revenues are primarily from sales of the T3 Series, T3i Series, power modules, chargers, related accessories and service. Net revenues decreased ($152,864), or (13.3%), to $996,562 for the three months ended March 31, 2011 compared to the same period of the prior year. The decrease was primarily due to certain of our customers deferring purchasing decisions, thereby lengthening our sales cycles, as well as vendor supply issues resulting in orders placed by customers not being shipped during the quarter coupled with our short supply of cash to adequately purchase parts in a timely and cost-effective manner to meet our orders. The delays in our parts due to our increased vendor lead times along with our inadequate cash position, has resulted in an increased backlog. To date, we have not received any cancelled orders. The decreases were offset in part by expansion into new markets, increase in orders placed due to the slight economic recovery, achieving a higher average selling price per unit and an increase in service and parts revenue. We anticipate that the net proceeds from our offering will reduce our delays and also allow us to place orders with our vendors in accordance with their current lead times. This should return our
57
Table of Contents
lead times back to our standard of approximately 4-6 weeks. Our backlog at March 31, 2011 was approximately $2.9 million.
Cost of net revenues. Cost of net revenues consisted of materials, labor to produce vehicles and accessories, warranty and service costs and applicable overhead allocations. Cost of net revenues decreased ($170,517), or (15.1%), to $956,932 for the three months ended March 31, 2011 compared to the same period of the prior year. This decrease in cost of net revenues is primarily attributable to management’s cost reduction strategy. The decrease was offset in part by increased shipping costs due to our cash position and the inability to purchase product at the appropriate lead times to prevent overnight or air freight charges, thereby increasing our costs.
Gross profit. Management has continued to source lower product costs, increase production efficiencies and experienced lower warranty costs, offset in part by cash constraints resulting in increased shipping costs, and vendor supply issues, resulting in gross profit of $39,630 for the three months ended March 31, 2011, compared to a gross profit of $21,977 for the same period of the prior year and. Management has and will continue to evaluate the processes and materials to reduce the costs of net revenues over the next periods. Gross profit margin was 4.0% and 1.9% for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively.
Sales and marketing. Sales and marketing decreased by ($115,904), or (27.1%), to $311,750 for the three months ended March 31, 2011, compared to the same period of the prior year. The decrease in sales and marketing expense was attributable to a reduction in salaries and commissions due to restructuring of commission plans and decreases in trade show and travel expenses.
Research and development. Research and development costs include development expenses such as salaries, consultant fees, cost of supplies and materials for samples and prototypes, as well as outside services costs. Research and development expense decreased by ($86,594), or (27.0%), to $233,912 for the three months ended March 31, 2011 compared to the same period of the prior year. The decrease was largely in part due to a reduction in salaries and employee costs as well as a reduction in material costs due to the completion of the electric/hybrid vehicle prototype during 2011.
General and administrative. General and administrative expenses decreased by ($207,868), or (20.2%), to $821,545, for the three months ended March 31, 2011 compared to the same period of the prior year. The decrease was due to a decrease in stock compensation expenses and a decrease in compliance expenses.
Other income (expense), net. Other income, net increased by $613,135, or 821.3%, to $687,792 for the three months ended March 31, 2011 compared to the prior year. The increase was primarily due to the change in the fair value of the derivative liabilities and a decrease in amortization of debt discounts when compared to the same period of the prior year.
Deemed dividend. Deemed dividend decreased by ($808,082), or (48.3%), to $864,800 for the three months ended March 31, 2011 compared to the same period of the prior year. The deemed dividend is the result of the amortization of the discount on the Series A convertible preferred stock. The decrease was primarily attributable to the conversion of 2,000,000 preferred shares into 400,000 shares of common stock resulting in additional deemed dividend of $1,099,742 during the three months ended March 31, 2010.
Net loss attributable to common stockholders. Net loss attributable to common stockholders for the three months ended March 31, 2011, was ($1,505,385), or ($0.30) per basic and diluted share compared to a loss of ($3,354,621), or ($0.74) per basic and diluted share, for the same period of the prior year.

Net Revenues. Net revenues are primarily from sales of the T3 Series, T3i Series, power modules, chargers, related accessories and service. Net revenues increased $38,886, or 0.8%, to $4,682,908 for the year ended December 31, 2010, compared to the same period of the prior year. The increase was primarily due the expansion into new markets, increase in orders placed due to the slight economic recovery, achieving a higher average selling price per unit and an increase in service and parts revenue. These increases were offset in part by certain of our customers deferring purchasing decisions, thereby lengthening our sales cycles, as well as vendor supply issues resulting in orders placed by customers not being shipped during the last half of the year coupled with our short supply of cash to adequately purchase parts in a timely and cost-effective manner to meet our orders. The delays in our parts due to our increased vendor lead times along with our inadequate cash position, has resulted in an increased backlog. To date, we have not experienced cancelled orders. We anticipate that the proceeds from the offering will reduce our delays and also allow us to place orders with our vendors in accordance with their current lead times, therefore should return our lead times back to our standard of approximately 4-6 weeks. Our backlog at December 31, 2010 was approximately $2.2 million.

Cost of net revenues. Cost of net revenues primarily consisted of materials, labor to produce vehicles and accessories, warranty and service costs and applicable overhead allocations. Cost of net revenues decreased $(475,621), or (9.5%), to $4,512,497 for the year ended December 31, 2010, compared to the prior year. This decrease in cost of revenues is attributable to management’s cost reduction strategy and lower warranty cost experience due to increase in product reliability. The decrease was offset in part by increased shipping costs due to our cash position and the inability to purchase product at the appropriate lead times to prevent overnight or air freight charges, thereby increasing our costs. The decrease in cost of revenues was also offset by the addition of $65,000 to inventory reserve for the year ended December 31, 2010.
Gross profit (loss). During 2010, management has continued to source lower product costs, increase production efficiencies and experienced lower warranty costs, offset in part by cash constraints resulting in increased shipping costs, inventory reserve and vendor supply issues, resulting in gross profit of $170,411, compared to a gross loss of $(344,096) for the prior year. Management has and will continue to evaluate the processes and materials to reduce the costs of revenue over the next year. Gross profit (loss) margin was 3.6% and (7.4%), respectively, for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009.
Sales and marketing. Sales and marketing decreased by $(101,088), or (5.2%), to $1,826,736 for the year ended December 31, 2010, compared to the prior year. The decrease in sales and marketing expense is attributable to a reduction in salaries and commissions due to restructuring of commission plans and decreases in trade show and travel expenses.
Research and development. Research and development costs generally consist of development expenses such as salaries, consultant fees, cost of supplies and materials for samples and prototypes, as well as outside services costs. Research and development expense increased by $207,652, or 14.9%, to $1,602,961 for the year ended December 31, 2010, compared to the prior year. The increase was primarily attributable to the costs associated to build the electric/hybrid vehicle prototype.
General and administrative. General and administrative expenses decreased $(1,546,984), or (30.2%), to $3,579,817, for the year ended December 31, 2010 compared to the prior year. The decrease was primarily due to decreases in salaries, legal expenses, stock compensation expenses and accounting compliance costs.
Other income (expense), net. Other income (expense ), net decreased $(3,583,921) to ($1,487,984) for the year ended December 31, 2010 primarily due to the change in the fair value of the derivative liabilities and the amortization of debt discount when compared to the prior year.
Deemed dividend. During 2010, as a result of the issuance of Series A convertible preferred stock, we recorded a deemed dividend related to the amortization of discounts on the preferred stock of $3,730,149 for the year ended December 31, 2010 compared to $6,116 for the prior year.
Net loss attributable to common stockholders. Net loss attributable to common stockholders for the year ended December 31, 2010, was $(12,058,036), or $(2.53) per basic and diluted share compared to $(6,705,009), or $(1.51) per basic and diluted share, for the prior year.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Our principal capital requirements are to fund our working capital requirements, invest in research and development and capital equipment, to make debt service payments and the continued costs of public company filing requirements. We have historically funded our operations through debt and equity financings, raising $1,000,000 and $1,155,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. We will continue to raise equityand/or secure additional debt to meet our working capital requirements. For the year ended December 31, 2010, our independent registered public accounting firm noted in its report that we have incurred losses from operations and have an accumulated deficit and working capital deficit of approximately $(45.1) million and $(15.1) million, respectively, as of December 31, 2010, which raises substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.
Management believes that cash from operations, together with the net proceeds of the recent public offering of approximately $9.6 million, should be sufficient to allow the Company to continue as a going concern through at least December 31, 2011; however, the Company cannot assure you of this and may require additional debt or equity

financing in the future to maintain operations. The Company also anticipates that it will pursue raising additional debt or equity financing to fund its new product development and expansion plans. We cannot assure you that such financing will be available on a timely basis, or acceptable terms or at all.
During 2011, the Company has received proceeds from related-party loans of approximately $1.0 million, repaid the outstanding balance of the $1.0 million related to the note to Immersive Media Corp. (“Immersive”) and converted the outstanding balance of the $3.5 million related to the note with Vision into equity securities. In light of these plans, management is confident in the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. These condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
Until management achieves our cost reduction strategy and is able to generate sales to realize the benefits of the strategy and sufficiently increases cash flow from operations, we will require additional capital to meet our working capital requirements, debt service, research and development, capital requirements and compliance requirements. We will continue to raise additional equityand/or financing to meet our working capital requirements.
Our principal sources of liquidity are cash and receivables. As of March 31, 2011, cash and cash equivalents were $154,070 or 4.2% of total assets compared to $133,861, or 3.7% of total assets as of December 31, 2010.

DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES
Equity Securities
On November 11, 2009, the Company filed an amendment to its certificate of incorporation that increased its authorized number of shares of capital stock to 170,000,000, including 150,000,000 shares of common stock and 20,000,000 shares of preferred stock.
Preferred Stock
On August 25, 2009, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized 20,000,000 shares of preferred stock. On November 11, 2009, the Company filed a Certificate of Designation of its Series A convertible preferred stock (“Series A Preferred”). Except as otherwise provided in the Series A Certificate or by law, each holder of shares of
63
Table of Contents
Series A Preferred shall have no voting rights. As long as any shares of Series A Preferred are outstanding, however, the Company shall not, without the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the then outstanding shares of the Series A Preferred, (a) alter or change adversely the powers, preferences, or rights given to the Series A Preferred or alter or amend the Series A Certificate, (b) authorize or create any class of stock ranking as to dividends, redemption or distribution of assets upon a liquidation senior to or otherwise pari passu with the Series A Preferred, (c) amend its certificate of incorporation or other charter documents in any manner that adversely affects any rights of the holders of Series A Preferred, (d) increase the number of authorized shares of Series A Preferred, or (e) enter into any agreement with respect to any of the foregoing.
Each share of Series A Preferred is convertible at any time and from time to time after the issue date at the holder’s option into shares of the Company’s common stock (subject to beneficial ownership limitations as set forth in Section 6(d) of the Series A Certificate; provided however these limitations will be deleted immediately prior to the closing of this offering) determined by dividing the Stated Value of such share of Series A Preferred by the Conversion Price (each as defined below).
Each share of Series A Preferred shall have a “Stated Value” equal to $0.50. The “Conversion Price” for the Series A Preferred shall equal $5.00, subject to adjustment as provided in the Series A Certificate.
Holders of our Series A Preferred are restricted from converting their shares of Series A Preferred to common stock if the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued pursuant to such conversion would cause the number of shares of common stock beneficially owned by such holder, together with its affiliates, at such time to exceed 9.99% of the then issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock; provided, however, that such holder may waive this limitation upon 61 days’ notice to the Company. The Company has not received any such notice. However, the Company expects to remove this provision from the Certificate of Incorporation prior to the closing of this offering. There are no redemption rights.
The Conversion Price shall be proportionately reduced for a stock dividend, stock split, subdivision, combination or similar arrangements. The Conversion Price will also be reduced for any sale of common stock (or options, warrants or convertible debt or other derivative securities) at a purchase price per share less than the Conversion Price, subject to certain excepted issuances. The Conversion Price will be reduced to such purchase price if such issuance occurs within the first 12 months of the original issuance date. The Conversion Price will be reduced to a price derived using a weighted-average formula if the issuance occurs after the first 12 months but before the 24 month anniversary of the original issuance date.
If, at any time while the Series A Preferred is outstanding, (A) the Company effects any merger or consolidation of the Company with or into another person, (B) the Company effects any sale of all or substantially all of its assets in one transaction or a series of related transactions, (C) any tender offer or exchange offer (whether by the Company or another person) is completed pursuant to which holders of common stock are permitted to tender or exchange their shares for other securities, cash or property, or (D) the Company effects any reclassification of the common stock or any compulsory share exchange pursuant to which the common stock is effectively converted into or exchanged for other securities, cash or property (in any such case, a “Fundamental Transaction”), then, upon any subsequent conversion of Series A Preferred, the holders shall have the right to receive, for each Conversion Share (as defined in Section 1 of the Series A Certificate) that would have been issuable upon such conversion immediately prior to the occurrence of such Fundamental Transaction, the same kind and amount of securities, cash or property as it would have been entitled to receive upon the occurrence of such Fundamental Transaction if it had been, immediately prior to such Fundamental Transaction, the holder of one share of common stock
As of June 8, 2011, all shares of Series A preferred stock have been converted into shares of common stock.
Our board of directors is authorized by our Certificate of Incorporation to establish classes or series of preferred stock and fix the designation, powers, preferences and rights of the shares of each such class or series and the qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof without any further vote or action by our stockholders. Any shares of preferred stock so issued would have priority over our common stock with respect to dividend or liquidation rights. Any future issuance of preferred stock may have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a change in our control without further action by our stockholders and may adversely affect the voting and other rights
64
Table of Contents
of the holders of our common stock. At present, we have no plans to issue any additional shares of preferred stock or to adopt any new series, preferences or other classification of preferred stock.
The issuance of shares of preferred stock, or the issuance of rights to purchase such shares, could be used to discourage an unsolicited acquisition proposal. For instance, the issuance of a series of preferred stock might impede a business combination by including class voting rights that would enable a holder to block such a transaction. In addition, under certain circumstances, the issuance of preferred stock could adversely affect the voting power of holders of our common stock. Although our board of directors is required to make any determination to issue preferred stock based on its judgment as to the best interests of our stockholders, our board could act in a manner that would discourage an acquisition attempt or other transaction that some, or a majority, of our stockholders might believe to be in their best interests or in which such stockholders might receive a premium for their stock over the then market price of such stock. Our board presently does not intend to seek stockholder approval prior to the issuance of currently authorized stock, unless otherwise required by law or applicable stock exchange rules.
Common Stock
As of June 2, 2011, there were issued and outstanding, 12,880,978 shares of common stock. The holders of common stock are entitled to one vote per share on all matters to be voted upon by the stockholders. The holders of common stock are entitled to receive any dividends that may be declared from time to time by the Board of Directors out of funds legally available for that purpose. The declaration of any future cash dividend will be at the discretion of the Company’s Board of Directors and will depend upon the Company’s earnings, if any, capital requirements and financial position, general economic conditions, and other pertinent conditions. In the event of our liquidation, dissolution or winding up, the holders of common stock are entitled to share in all assets remaining after payment of liabilities.
The holders of common stock do not have cumulative voting rights, which mean that the holders of more than fifty percent of the shares of common stock voting for election of directors may elect all the directors if they choose to do so. In this event, the holders of the remaining shares aggregating less than fifty percent will not be able to elect directors. The common stock has no preemptive or conversion rights or other subscription rights.
Warrants
Class H Warrants
Each Class H warrant entitles the holder to purchase one share of our common stock at a price of $3.00 per share, subject to adjustment as discussed below, at any time. The Class H warrants will expire on May 13, 2013 at 5:00 p.m., New York City time. The Class H warrants are redeemable. The Class H warrants can not be exercised until three months after issuance.
The Class H warrants were issued in registered form under a warrant agreement between Securities Transfer Corporation, as warrant agent, and us. You should review a copy of the warrant agreement, which has been filed as an exhibit to the registration statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-171163), for a complete description of the terms and conditions applicable to the Class H warrants.
The exercise price and number of shares of common stock issuable on exercise of the Class H warrants may be adjusted in certain circumstances including in the event of a stock dividend, or our recapitalization, reorganization, merger or consolidation. However, the Class H warrants will not be adjusted for issuances of common stock, preferred stock or other securities at a price below their respective exercise prices.
The Class H warrants may be exercised upon surrender of the warrant certificate on or prior to the expiration date at the offices of the warrant agent, with the exercise form on the reverse side of the warrant certificate completed and executed as indicated, accompanied by full payment of the exercise price, by certified check payable to us, for the number of Class H warrants being exercised. The Class H warrantholders do not have the rights or privileges of holders of common stock and any voting rights until they exercise their Class H warrants and receive shares of common stock. After the issuance of shares of common stock upon exercise of the Class H warrants, each holder will be entitled to one vote for each share held of record on all matters to be voted on by stockholders.
65
Table of Contents
If at the time of exercise of a Class H warrant, no prospectus relating to the common stock issuable upon exercise of the Class H warrants is current and the common stock has not been registered or qualified or deemed to be exempt under the securities laws of the state of residence of the holder of the Class H warrants, the Class H Warrants will instead only be exercisable on a “net” or “cashless” basis. We will use our reasonable efforts to maintain a current prospectus relating to common stock issuable upon exercise of the Class H warrants until the expiration of the Class H warrants. However, we cannot assure you that we will be able to do so.
We may redeem the outstanding Class H warrants: (a) in whole or not in part, (b) at a price of $0.01 at any time after the warrants become exercisable, (c) upon a minimum 30 days’ prior written notice of redemption, and (d) if and only if, the reported last sale price of our common stock equals or exceeds $6.00 per share for any 20 consecutive trading days within a 30 trading day period ending on the third business day prior to the30-day notice of redemption to warrant holders.
No fractional shares will be issued upon exercise of the Class H warrants. However, we will pay to the Class H warrantholder, in lieu of the issuance of any fractional share that is otherwise issuable to the Class H warrantholder, an amount in cash based on the market value of the common stock on the last trading day prior to the exercise date.
Class I Warrants
Each Class I warrant entitles the holder to purchase one share of our common stock at a price of $3.50 per share, subject to adjustment as discussed below. The Class I warrants can not be exercised until three months after issuance. The Class I warrants will expire on May 13, 2016 at 5:00 p.m., New York City time.
The Class I warrants were issued in registered form under a warrant agreement between Securities Transfer Corporation, as warrant agent, and us. You should review a copy of the warrant agreement, which has been filed as an exhibit to the registration statement onForm S-1 (File No. 333-171163), for a complete description of the terms and conditions applicable to the Class I warrants.
The exercise price and number of shares of common stock issuable on exercise of the Class I warrants may be adjusted in certain circumstances including in the event of a stock dividend, or our recapitalization, reorganization, merger or consolidation. However, the Class I warrants will not be adjusted for issuances of common stock, preferred stock or other securities at a price below their respective exercise prices.
The Class I warrants may be exercised upon surrender of the warrant certificate on or prior to the expiration date at the offices of the warrant agent, with the exercise form on the reverse side of the warrant certificate completed and executed as indicated, accompanied by full payment of the exercise price, by certified check payable to us, for the number of Class I warrants being exercised. The Class I warrantholders do not have the rights or privileges of holders of common stock and any voting rights until they exercise their Class I warrants and receive shares of common stock. After the issuance of shares of common stock upon exercise of the Class I warrants, each holder will be entitled to one vote for each share held of record on all matters to be voted on by stockholders.
If at the time of exercise of a Class I warrant, no registration statement relating to the common stock issuable upon exercise of the Class I warrants is effective and the common stock has not been registered or qualified or deemed to be exempt under the securities laws of the state of residence of the holder of the Class I warrants, the Class I Warrants will instead only be exercisable on a “net” or “cashless” basis. We will use our reasonable efforts to maintain an effective registration statement relating to common stock issuable upon exercise of the Class I warrants until the expiration of the Class I warrants. However, we cannot assure you that we will be able to do so.
No fractional shares will be issued upon exercise of the Class I warrants. However, we will pay to the Class I warrantholder, in lieu of the issuance of any fractional share that is otherwise issuable to the Class I warrantholder, an amount in cash based on the market value of the common stock on the last trading day prior to the exercise date.

In connection with our recent public offering, we entered into contractual rights agreements with certain investors who purchased at least $500,000 of units as well as certain insiders who converted their debt into units in a simultaneous private placement (collectively, $500,000 Investors”), pursuant to which and subject to certain exceptions, we may not sell or issue any common stock or common stock equivalents at a per share price lower than the exercise price of the Class H or Class I warrants unless we obtain prior written consent from such $500,000 Investors (and permitted assigns) that hold at least 67% of all Class H and Class I warrants originally acquired by the $500,000 Investors (“67% Eligible Warrant Interest Investors”).
These agreements also restrict us from engaging in certain types of change of control transactions in which our common stock is exchanged for all cash or non-publicly traded securities unless we obtain prior written consent from at least 67% Eligible Warrant Interest Investors.
The $500,000 Investors may assign their rights under these agreements in whole, but not in part, to a purchaser of their Class H or Class I warrants.
An agreement terminates with respect to any $500,000 Investor upon the earlier of the date that Class H and Class I warrants are no longer outstanding or at such time that such investor no longer holds Class H or Class I warrants.

DISCLOSURE OF COMMISSION POSITION ON
INDEMNIFICATION FOR SECURITIES ACT LIABILITIES
INDEMNIFICATION FOR SECURITIES ACT LIABILITIES
We have adopted provisions in our certificate 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 subsidiary (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, and the related consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss, stockholders’ equity (deficit) and cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2010. 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 of 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 also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and 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 consolidated financial position of T3 Motion, Inc. and subsidiary as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2010, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
As discussed in Note 9 to the consolidated financial statements, effective January 1, 2009, the Company changed the manner in which it accounts for certain financial instruments that are indexed to its own stock due to the adoption of a new accounting standard.
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 and has used substantial amounts of working capital in its operations since inception, and at December 31, 2010, has a working capital deficit of $15,057,791 and an accumulated deficit of $45,120,210. 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. was incorporated on March 16, 2006, under the laws of the state of Delaware. T3 Motion and its wholly-owned subsidiary, T3 Motion, Ltd. (collectively, the “Company”), develop and manufacture personal mobility vehicles powered by electric motors. The Company’s initial product, the T3 Series, is an electric, three-wheelstand-up vehicle (“ESV”) that is directly targeted to the law enforcement and private security markets. Substantially all of the Company’s revenues to date have been derived from sales of the T3 Series ESVs and related accessories.
The Company has entered into a distribution agreement with CT&T pursuant to which the Company has the exclusive right to market and sell the CT Series Micro Car, which is a low speed, four-wheel electric car, in the U.S. to the government, law enforcement and security markets. The Company is also currently developing the Electric/Hybrid Vehicle, which is a plug-in hybrid vehicle that features a single, wide-stance wheel with two high-performance tires sharing one rear wheel. The Company anticipates introducing the Electric/Hybrid Vehicle in late 2011.
Going Concern
The Company’s consolidated financial statements have been 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 incurred significant operating losses and has used substantial amounts of working capital in its operations since its inception (March 16, 2006). Further, at December 31, 2010, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $(45,120,210), a working capital deficit of $(15,057,791) and cash and cash equivalents (including restricted cash) of $133,861. Additionally, the Company used cash in operations of $(5,185,067) during the year ended December 31, 2010. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time. Management has been and plans to continue to implement its cost reduction strategy for material, production and service costs. Until management achieves its cost reduction strategy and is able to generate sales to realize the benefits of the strategy, and sufficiently increases cash flow from operations, the Company will require additional capital to meet working capital requirements, debt service, research and development, capital requirements and compliance requirements.
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 April 30, 2011. The Company has filed a registration statement in connection with a proposed public offering of its securities. Management has been implementing cost reduction strategies and believes that its cash from operations, together with the net proceeds of that offering, will be sufficient to allow the Company to continue as a going concern through at least December 31, 2011. As such, these consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
The Company anticipates that it will pursue raising additional debt or equity financing to fund its new product development and expansion plans. The Company cannot make any assurances that that management’s cost reduction strategies will be effective or that the public offering or any additional financing will be completed on a timely basis, on acceptable terms or at all. Management’s inability to successfully implement its cost reduction strategies or to complete its public offering or any other financing will adversely impact the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

NOTE 2 — | SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of T3 Motion, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiary, T3 Motion Ltd. (UK) (the “subsidiary”). All significant inter-company accounts and transactions are eliminated in consolidation.
Reverse Stock Split
On May 16, 2011, the Company effected aone-for-10 reverse stock split of its common stock. The reverse stock split did not affect the Company’s Series A convertible preferred stock. The accompanying consolidated financial statements and footnotes have been retroactively adjusted to reflect the effects of the reverse stock split. The reverse stock split did not affect the amount of the Company’s equity or its market capitalization.
Reclassifications
Certain amounts in the 2009 consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform with the current year presentation.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of consolidated 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 revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Significant estimates include, but are not limited to: collectibility of receivables, recoverability of long-lived assets, realizability of inventories, warranty accruals, valuation of share-based transactions, valuation of derivative liabilities and realizability of 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.
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 as a separate component in stockholders’ equity (deficit). Gains and losses from foreign currency translations are included in other comprehensive income (loss). Translation gains (losses) of $344 and $(632) were recognized during the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.
Concentrations of Credit Risk
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company maintains its non-interest bearing transactional cash accounts at financial institutions for which the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) provides unlimited insurance coverage. For interest bearing cash accounts, from time to time, 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, 2010, the Company did not have cash deposits in excess of the FDIC limit.
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. The Company invests its cash in short-term money market accounts.

T3 MOTION, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)
Restricted Cash
Under a credit card processing agreement with a financial institution, the Company is required to maintain a security deposit as collateral. The amount of the deposit is at the discretion of the financial institution and as of December 31, 2010 was $10,000.
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 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 its allowance for doubtful accounts. At December 31, 2010 and 2009, the Company had an allowance for doubtful accounts of $50,000 and $37,000, respectively. Although the Company expects to collect amounts due, actual collections may differ from the estimated amounts.
As of December 31, 2010 and 2009, two customers accounted for approximately 51% and 36% of total accounts receivable, respectively. One customer and no single customer accounted for more than 10% of net revenues for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.
Accounts Payable
As of December 31, 2010 and 2009, no single vendor and one vendor accounted for more than 10% of total accounts payable, respectively. Two vendors and no single vendor each accounted for more than 10% of purchases for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.
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.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are stated at cost, and are 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 statements of operations.
Deposits
Deposits primarily consist of amounts incurred or paid in advance of the receipt of fixed assets (see Note 12).
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
The Company accounts for its long-lived assets in accordance with the accounting standards which require 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
F-10
Table of Contents
T3 MOTION, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)
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, 2009, the Company performed an annual review of its identified intangible asset related to the GeoImmersive license agreement to assess potential impairment. At December 31, 2009, management deemed the intangible asset to be fully impaired, as management has decided to allocate the resources required to map the data elsewhere. As a result, the remaining value of $625,000 was fully amortized as of December 31, 2009. As of December 31, 2010 and 2009, the Company does not believe there has been any other 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 and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable, related party receivables, accounts payable, accrued expenses, related party payables, note payable, related party notes payable and derivative liabilities. The carrying value for all such instruments except related party notes payable and derivative liabilities approximates fair value due to the short-term nature of the instruments. The Company cannot determine the fair value of its related party notes payable due to the related party nature of such instruments and because instruments similar to the notes payable could not be found. The Company’s derivative liabilities are recorded at fair value (see Note 9).
The Company determines the fair value of its financial instruments based on a three-level hierarchy for fair value measurements under which these assets and liabilities must be grouped, based on significant levels of observable or unobservable inputs. Observable inputs reflect market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect the Company’s market assumptions. This hierarchy requires the use of observable market data when available. These two types of inputs have created the following fair-value hierarchy:
Level 1 — Valuations based on unadjusted quoted market prices in active markets for identical securities. Currently the Company does not have any items classified as Level 1.
Level 2 — Valuations based on observable inputs (other than Level 1 prices), such as quoted prices for similar assets at the measurement date; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable, either directly or indirectly. Currently the Company does not have any items classified as Level 2.
Level 3 — Valuations based on inputs that are unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement, and involve management judgment. The Company used the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model to determine the fair value of the financial instruments.
If the inputs used to measure fair value fall in different levels of the fair value hierarchy, a financial security’s hierarchy level is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.
Beneficial Conversion Features and Debt Discounts
The convertible features of convertible debentures provide for a rate of conversion that is below market value. Such feature is normally characterized as a “beneficial conversion feature” (“BCF”). The relative fair values of the BCF were recorded as discounts from the face amount of the respective debt instrument. The Company amortized the discount using the effective interest method through maturity of such instruments.
Revenue Recognition
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. The Company ships with either FOB Shipping Point or Destination terms. Shipping documents are used to verify delivery and customer
F-11
Table of Contents
T3 MOTION, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)
acceptance. For FOB Destination, the Company records revenue when proof of delivery is confirmed by the shipping company. 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 12), and has no other post-shipment obligations. The Company assesses collectibility 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 revenues, while all costs incurred by the Company for shipping and handling are classified as cost of net revenues.
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 by 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 Series packages (one T3 Series, 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.
Share-Based Compensation
The Company maintains a stock option plan (see Note 11) and records expenses attributable to the stock option plan. The Company amortizes share-based compensation from the date of grant on a straight-line basis over the requisite service (vesting) period for the entire award using the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model.
The Company accounts for equity instruments issued to consultants and vendors in exchange for goods and services in accordance with the accounting standards. The measurement date for the fair value of the equity instruments issued is determined at the earlier of (i) the date at which a commitment for performance by the consultant or vendor is reached or (ii) the date at which the consultant’s or vendor’s performance is complete. In the case of equity instruments issued to consultants, the fair value of the equity instrument is recognized over the term of the consulting agreement.
In accordance with the accounting standards, an asset acquired in exchange for the issuance of fully vested, non-forfeitable equity instruments should not be presented or classified as an offset to equity on the grantor’s balance sheet once the equity instrument is granted for accounting purposes. Accordingly, the Company records the fair value of the fully vested, non-forfeitable common stock issued for future consulting services as prepaid expense in its consolidated balance sheets.
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes under the provisions of the accounting standards. Under the accounting standards, 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 net loss attributable 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 loss per share except that the denominator is increased to include the number
F-12
Table of Contents
T3 MOTION, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)
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, warrants and shares associated with the conversion of debt and preferred stock to purchase approximately 5.47 million and 5.05 million shares of common stock were outstanding at December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively, but were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share due to the anti-dilutive effect on net loss per share.

of assets between Level 1 and 2 of the three -tier fair value hierarchy established under its fair value measurement guidance. This guidance also requires separate disclosure for purchases, sales, issuances and settlements in the reconciliation for fair value measurements using significant unobservable inputs using Level 3 methodologies. Except for the detailed disclosure in the Level 3 reconciliation, which is effective for the fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010, we adopted the relevant provisions of this guidance effective January 1, 2010, which did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)
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 be realized. As of December 31, 2010, the Company has available net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $32.8 million for federal purposes and $33.0 million for state purposes and $0.4 million for foreign purposes, which will start to expire beginning in 2026 for federal purposes and 2018 for California purposes and carried forward 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. The Company also has federal and state research and experimentation tax credits of approximately $0.2 million and $0.2 million, respectively, that begin to expire in 2027 for federal purposes and have an indefinite carryforward for state purposes.
The Company accounts for income taxes under the asset and liability method, which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the differences between the financial statements and tax basis of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. The effect of a change in tax rates on deferred tax assets and liabilities is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.
The Company records net deferred tax assets to the extent it believes these assets will more likely than not be realized. In making such determination, the Company considered all available positive and negative evidence, including scheduled reversals of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income, tax planning strategies and recent financial operations. In the event the Company was to determine that it would be able to realize deferred income tax assets in the future in excess of net recorded amount, the Company would make an adjustment to the valuation allowance which would reduce the provision for income taxes. The valuation allowance increased by $2.7 million and $1.5 million in 2010 and 2009, respectively.
The accounting guidance for uncertainty in income taxes provides that a tax benefit from an uncertain tax position may be recognized when it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination, including resolutions of any related appeals or litigation processes, based on the technical merits. Income tax positions must meet a more-likely-than-not recognition threshold at the effective date to be recognized upon the adoption of the accounting standard and in subsequent periods. This interpretation also provides guidance on measurement, derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition.
The adoption of the accounting standard for uncertainty in income taxes on January 1, 2008, did not require an adjustment to the consolidated financial statements. There were no adjustments required for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009.
The Company expects resolution of unrecognized tax benefits, if created, would occur while the full valuation allowance of deferred tax assets is maintained, therefore, the Company does not expect to have any unrecognized tax benefit, that if recognized, would affect the effective tax rate.
The Company will recognize interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits and penalties as income tax expense. As of December 31, 2010, the Company has not recognized liabilities for interest and penalties as the Company does not have liability for unrecognized tax benefits.
The Company is subject to taxation in the U.S. and various states and foreign jurisdiction. The Company’s tax years for 2006 through 2009 are subject to examination by the taxing authorities. With few exceptions, the Company is no longer subject to U.S., state, local, and foreign examination by taxing authorities for years before 2006.

Company repaid $1,000,000 of the principal amount. The note was originally due December 31, 2008 and is secured by all of the Company’s assets (see amendments below).
In connection with the issuance of the promissory note, the Company issued a warrant to Immersive for the purchase of 69,764 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $10.80 per share. The warrants are immediately exercisable. The Company recorded a debt discount of $485,897 related to the fair value of the warrants, which was calculated using the Black-Scholes Merton option pricing model. The debt discount was amortized to interest expense over the original term of the promissory note.

On December 19, 2008, the Company amended the terms of the promissory note with Immersive to, among other things, extend the maturity date of the outstanding balance of $1,000,000 from December 31, 2008 to March 31, 2010 and give Immersive the option to convert the promissory note during the pendency and prior to the closing of an equity offering into units of the Company’s securities at an original conversion price of $16.50 per unit. Each unit consists of one share of the Company’s common stock and a warrant to purchase a share of the Company’s common stock at $20.00 per share. In the event the Company issues common stock or common stock equivalents for cash consideration in a subsequent financing at an effective price per share less than the original conversion price, the conversion price will reset. The amended terms of the note resulted in terms that were substantially different from the terms of the original note. As a result, the modification was treated as an extinguishment of debt during the year ended December 31, 2008. There was no gain or loss recognized in connection with the extinguishment. At the date of the amendment, the Company did not record the value of the conversion feature as the conversion option is contingent on a future event.
In December 2009, the Company issued 2,000,000 shares of its Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (“Preferred Stock”) in connection with an equity offering (see Note 10). As a result of the December 2009 equity offering, the Company recorded the estimated fair value of the conversion feature of $1,802 as a debt discount and amortized such amount to interest expense through the maturity of the note on March 31, 2010. The Company recorded the corresponding amount as a derivative liability and any change in fair value of the conversion feature was recorded through earnings.
As consideration for extending the terms of the promissory note in December 2008, the Company agreed to issue warrants to Immersive for the purchase of up to 25,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $20.00 per share, subject to adjustment. For every three months that the promissory note is outstanding, the Company issued Immersive a warrant to purchase 5,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. During the year ended December 31, 2009, the Company issued warrants to Immersive to purchase 20,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. The Company recorded a debt discount of $139,778 based on the estimated fair value of the warrants issued during the year ended December 31, 2009. As a result of the December 2009 equity offering, the exercise price of the warrants was adjusted to $5.00 per share (see Note 9 for a discussion on derivative liabilities). During the year ended December 31, 2010, the Company issued the remaining 5,000 warrants under the note. The Company recorded an additional debt discount of $15,274 based on the estimated fair value of the 5,000 warrants issued during the year ended December 31, 2010.
During the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, the Company amortized $56,539 and $99,043, respectively, of the debt discounts to interest expense. As of March 31, 2010, prior to the second amendment to the Immersive note (see below), the debt discounts were fully amortized to interest expense.
Second Amendment to Immersive Note
On March 31, 2010, Immersive agreed to extend the note to April 30, 2010. As consideration for extending the note, the Company agreed to exchange Immersive’s Class A warrants to purchase up to 69,764 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $10.80 per share and its Class D warrants to purchase up to

25,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at an adjusted exercise price of $7.00 per share, for Class G warrants to purchase up to 69,764 shares and 25,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, respectively, each with an exercise price of $7.00 per share. The Company recorded a debt discount and derivative liability of $1,898 based on the incremental increase in the estimated fair value of the re-pricing of the 25,000 warrants. The Company recorded an additional debt discount and derivative liability in the amount of $216,811 based on the estimated fair value of the 69,764 warrants issued. The total debt discount was amortized in April 2010. The amended terms did not result in terms that were substantially different from the terms of the original note. Therefore, there was no extinguishment of debt as a result of the second amendment.
The note and accrued interest were not repaid in full by April 30, 2010. As a result, per the agreement, the maturity date was extended to March 31, 2011 and the Company issued Class G warrants to purchase up to 104,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $7.00 per share. The interest rate, which compounds annually, was also amended to 15.0%. The Company recorded interest expense of $140,000 and $120,000, related to the stated rate of interest during the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively, and had accrued interest of $110,000 and $0 at December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. The terms of the Class G warrants issued to Immersive are substantially similar to prior Class G warrants issued by the Company. The Company recorded a debt discount of $329,120 related to the fair value of the warrants issued. Amortization of this debt discount was $220,241 for the year ended December 31, 2010, resulting in an unamortized debt discount balance of $108,879 at December 31, 2010.

The Debentures accrue interest on the unpaid principal balance at a rate equal to 10% per annum. The maturity date of the Debentures was December 30, 2010 (see below). At any time after the 240th calendar day following the issue date, the Debentures are convertible into “units” of Company securities at a conversion price of $1.00 per unit, subject to adjustment. Each “unit” consists of one share of the Company’s Preferred Stock and a warrant to purchase one share of the common stock. As a result of the 240th day passing, the Company recorded an additional debt discount and corresponding derivative liability in the amount of $275,676 during the year ended December 31, 2010 (see Note 9).

NOTE 9 — | DERIVATIVE LIABILITIES |
Effective January 1, 2009, the Company adopted the accounting standard that provides guidance for determining whether an equity-linked financial instrument, or embedded feature, is indexed to an entity’s own stock. The standard applies to any freestanding financial instruments or embedded features that have the characteristics of a derivative, and to any freestanding financial instruments that are potentially settled in an entity’s own common stock.
As a result of the adoption of the accounting standard, 456,277 of the Company’s issued and outstanding common stock purchase warrants and embedded conversion features previously treated as equity pursuant to the derivative treatment exemption were no longer afforded equity treatment. These warrants had exercise prices ranging from $10.80 to $20.00 and expire between December 2012 and December 2014. Effective January 1, 2009, the Company reclassified the fair value of these common stock purchase warrants and embedded conversion features, all of which have exercise price reset features and price protection clauses, from equity to liability status as if these warrants and conversion features were treated as derivative liabilities since their date of original issuance ranging from March 2008 through December 2008.
On January 1, 2009, the Company reclassified from additional paid-in capital, as a cumulative effect adjustment, approximately $4.0 million to a derivative liability to recognize the fair value of such warrants and
F-23

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)
embedded conversion features, at the original issuance date and reclassified from retained earnings, as a cumulative effect adjustment, approximately $2.0 million to recognize the change in the fair value from original issuance through December 31, 2008, and recorded additional debt discounts of approximately $0.9 million related to the fair value of warrants issued with related party notes outstanding at December 31, 2008.
During 2010 and 2009, the Company issued 104,000 and 992,850 of additional warrants , respectively, related to convertible debt and during 2009 recorded liabilities related to conversion options (see Note 8). During 2010, the Company exchanged 69,764 of Class A warrants and 25,000 of Class B warrants for 94,764 Class G warrants (see Note 8). The Company also recorded an additional derivative liability of $275,676 related to the Vision Debentures during the year ended December 31, 2010 (see Note 8). The Company estimated the fair value of the warrants and conversion options at the dates of issuance and recorded a debt discount and corresponding derivative liability of $838,779 and $3,510,751 during 2010 and 2009, respectively. The debt discount will be amortized over the remaining life of the related debt. The change in fair value of the derivative liability will be recorded through earnings at each reporting date.
During 2010 and 2009, the Company issued additional warrants of 231,000 and 595,373, respectively, related to Preferred Stock (see Note 10). The Company estimated the fair value of the warrants of $716,236 and $1,740,578, respectively, at the dates of issuance and recorded a discount on the issuance of the equity and a corresponding derivative liability. The discount will be recorded as a deemed dividend with a reduction to retained earnings. The change in fair value of the derivative will be recorded through earnings at each reporting date.
During 2010 and 2009, the Company recorded a discount on the issuance of Preferred Stock and a corresponding derivative liability of $685,124 and $7,314,273, respectively, related to the anti-dilution provision of the Preferred Stock issued. The discount will be recorded as a deemed dividend with a reduction to retained earnings during the24-month period that the anti-dilution provision is outstanding. The change in fair value of the derivative liabilities will be recorded through earnings at each reporting date.
During 2010 and 2009, the amortization of the discounts related to the Preferred Stock anti-dilution provision and warrants issued was $3,730,150 and $6,116, respectively, which was recorded as a deemed dividend.
During the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, the Company exchanged 350,000 warrants for 210,000 shares of common stock and 1,097,277 warrants to 2,263,750 shares of Preferred Stock, respectively, pursuant to the Exchange Agreement (see Note 10). As a result of these exchanges, the Company exchanged warrants with a fair value of $1,208,478 and $1,201,225 during 2010 and 2009, respectively, for shares of common stock valued at $840,000 and Preferred Stock valued at $1,155,390, resulting in gains on the exchanges of $368,478 and $45,835 during the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.
During 2009, in connection with the conversion of the Vision Parties’ and Mr. Nam’s notes payable (see Note 8), the Company reclassified the fair value of the derivative liability related to the conversion feature of $208,857 to additional paid-in capital.
On March 22, 2010, one of the Company’s preferred shareholders exercised their option to convert their 2,000,000 preferred shares into 400,000 shares of common stock (see Note 10). As a result of the conversion, the Company reclassified the balance of the derivative liability of $1,121,965 to additional paid-in capital and the balance of the discount of $1,099,742 as a deemed dividend.
As of December 31, 2010, the unamortized discount related to the conversion feature of the Preferred Stock was $4,263,068.
The common stock purchase warrants were not issued with the intent of effectively hedging any future cash flow, fair value of any asset, liability or any net investment in a foreign operation. The warrants do not qualify for hedge accounting, and as such, all future changes in the fair value of these warrants will be recognized currently in earnings until such time as the warrants are exercised or expire. These common stock purchase warrants do not trade in an active securities market, and as such, the Company estimates the fair value of these warrants and embedded

The Company believes this method produces an estimate that is representative of its expectations of future volatility over the expected term of these warrants.
The Company currently has no reason to believe future volatility over the expected remaining life of these warrants is likely to differ materially from historical volatility. The expected life is based on the remaining term of the warrants. The risk-free interest rate is based on one-year to five-year U.S. Treasury securities.
During the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, the Company recorded other income of $2,101,067 and $6,184,151, respectively, related to the change in fair value of the warrants and embedded conversion options and is included in other income, net in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.

Series A Convertible Preferred Stock
The Company’s board of directors has authorized 20,000,000 shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (“Preferred Stock”). Except as otherwise provided in the Certificate of Designation which created the Series A Preferred Stock (the “Series A Certificate”) or by law, each holder of shares of Preferred Stock shall have no voting rights. As long as any shares of Preferred Stock are outstanding, however, the Company shall not, without the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the then outstanding shares of the Preferred Stock, (a) alter or change adversely the powers, preferences, or rights given to the Preferred Stock or alter or amend the Series A Certificate, (b) authorize or create any class of stock ranking as to dividends, redemption or distribution of assets upon a liquidation senior to or otherwise pari passu with the Preferred Stock, (c) amend its certificate of incorporation or other charter documents in any manner that adversely affects any rights of the holders of Preferred Stock, (d) increase the number of authorized shares of the Preferred Stock, or (e) enter into any agreement with respect to any of the foregoing.
Each share of Preferred Stock is convertible at any time and from time to time after the issue date at the holder’s option into two shares of the Company’s common stock (subject to beneficial ownership limitations (as defined below).
Holders of our Preferred Stock are restricted from converting their shares of Preferred Stock to common stock if the number of shares of common stock to be issued pursuant to such conversion would cause the number of shares of common stock beneficially owned by such holder, together with its affiliates, at such time to exceed 4.99% of the then issued and outstanding shares of common stock; provided, however, that such holder may waive this limitation upon 61 days’ notice to the Company. The Company has not received any such notice. There are no redemption rights.
The Conversion Price shall be proportionately reduced for a stock dividend, stock split, subdivision, combination or similar arrangements. The Conversion Price will also be reduced for any sale of common stock (or options, warrants or convertible debt or other derivative securities) at a purchase price per share less than the Conversion Price, subject to certain excepted issuances. The Conversion Price will be reduced to such purchase price if such issuance occurs within the first 12 months of the original issuance date. The Conversion Price will be reduced to a price derived using a weighted-average formula if the issuance occurs after the first 12 months but before the 24 month anniversary of the original issuance date.
If, at any time while the Preferred Stock is outstanding, (A) the Company effects any merger or consolidation of the Company with or into another person, (B) the Company effects any sale of all or substantially all of its assets in one transaction or a series of related transactions, (C) any tender offer or exchange offer (whether by the Company or another person) is completed pursuant to which holders of common stock are permitted to tender or exchange their shares for other securities, cash or property, or (D) the Company effects any reclassification of the common stock or any compulsory share exchange pursuant to which the common stock is effectively converted into or exchanged for other securities, cash or property (each of the foregoing, a “Fundamental Transaction”), then, upon any subsequent conversion of Preferred Stock, the holders shall have the right to receive, for each Conversion Share (as defined in Section 1 of the Series A Certificate) that would have been issuable upon such conversion immediately prior to the occurrence of such Fundamental Transaction, the same kind and amount of securities, cash or property as it would have been entitled to receive upon the occurrence of such Fundamental Transaction if it had been, immediately prior to such Fundamental Transaction, the holder of one share of common stock.
In September 2009, the Company offered up to 15,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock, at a purchase price of $1.00 per share, or up to an aggregate purchase price of $15,000,000, on a “best efforts” basis to selected qualified investors (the “Offering”). The minimum offering was $6,000,000. The proceeds of this Offering were delivered to the Company at multiple closings. During the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, the Company raised $1,155,000 and $1,978,942 (net of issuance costs), respectively, and issued 1,155,000 shares and 2,000,000 shares

NOTE 11 — STOCK OPTIONS AND WARRANTS
Stock Option/Stock Issuance Plans
On August 15, 2007 the Company adopted the 2007 Stock Option/Stock Issuance Plan (the “2007 Plan”), under which stock awards or options to acquire shares of the Company’s common stock may be granted to employees, nonemployee members of the Company’s board of directors, consultants or other independent advisors who provide services to the Company. The 2007 Plan is administered by the board of directors. The 2007 Plan permits the issuance of up to 745,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. Options granted under the 2007 Plan generally vest 25% per year over four years and expire 10 years from the date of grant. The 2007 Plan was terminated with respect to the issuance of new options or awards upon the adoption of the 2010 Plan (see below); no further options or awards may be granted under the 2007 Plan.
During 2010, the Company adopted the 2010 Stock Option/Stock Issuance Plan (the “2010 Plan”), under which stock awards or options to acquire shares of the Company’s common stock may be granted to employees, nonemployee members of the Company’s board of directors, consultants or other independent advisors who provide services to the Company. The 2010 Plan is administered by the Company’s board of directors. The 2010 Plan permits the issuance of up to 650,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. Options granted under the 2010 Plan generally vest 25% per year over four years and expire 10 years from the date of grant.
In July 2010, the exercise prices of certain outstanding employee stock options previously granted under the 2007 Plan were amended by the Company’s board of directors to have an exercise price of $5.00 per share. The amendments did not change the vesting schedules or any of the other terms of the respective stock options. As a result of the repricing of the options affected by the amendments, the Company will recognize a non-cash charge of $68,578 for the incremental change in fair value of the repriced options. Of the $68,578, the Company recorded $37,087 as share-based compensation for the year ended December 31, 2010 for the previously vested options. The remainder of the balance, $31,491, related to the unvested options will be amortized over the remaining vesting period of the related options. This repricing affected 24 employees who held 85,900 stock options in July 2010.
The following table sets forth the share-based compensation expense:

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. The Company has only granted service 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:
Years Ended December 31, | ||||
2010 | 2009 | |||

Expected dividends | — | — | ||
Forfeiture rate | 2.8% | 2.8% | ||
Weighted-average grant date fair value per share | $3.80 | $10.30 |
Upon the exercise of common stock options, the Company issues new shares from its authorized shares.
At December 31, 2010, the amount of unearned stock-based compensation currently estimated to be expensed from fiscal years 2011 through 2014 related to unvested common stock options is approximately $1.3 million. The weighted-average period over which the unearned stock-based compensation is expected to be recognized is approximately 3.0 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.
Warrants
From time to time, the Company issues warrants to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock to investors, noteholders and to non-employees for services rendered or to be rendered in the future (See Notes 8 and 10). Such warrants are issued outside of any equity incentive plans of the Company including the 2007 Plan and 2010 Plan.

Operating Leases
The Company leases two facilities in Costa Mesa, California under non-cancelable operating lease agreements that expired in 2010 but were extended on amonth-to-month basis and will expire in 2012. These leases require monthly lease payments of approximately $9,000 and $25,000 per month.
Lease expense for the facilities was approximately $384,000 and $448,000 for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

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 leases, the Company has indemnified its lessors for certain claims arising from the use of the facilities. 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 sheets.
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.
On June 25, 2008, the Company elected to upgrade or replace approximately 500 external chargers (revision D or older) 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 notified customers informing them of the need for an upgrade and began sending out newand/or upgraded chargers (revision E) in July 2008 to replace all existing revision D or older chargers that are in the field. The total costs of upgrading or replacing these chargers was approximately $68,000. All returned chargers will be upgraded to revision E and resold as refurbished units. The Company has completed the charger replacements as of December 31, 2010.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)
County Superior Court, alleging causes of actions against T3 Motion, Inc., Ki Nam, the Company’s CEO, and Jason Kim, the Company’s former COO (collectively the “Defendants”) for breach of contract, conspiracy, fraud and common counts, arising out of a purchase order allegedly executed between Plaintiff and the Company. On August 24, 2009, Defendants filed a Demurrer to the Complaint. Prior to the hearing on the Demurrer, Plaintiff filed a First Amended Complaint against Defendants for breach of contract, fraud and common counts, seeking compensatory damages of $470,599, attorney’s fees, punitive damages, interest and costs. On October 27, 2009, Defendants filed a Demurrer, challenging various causes of action in the First Amended Complaint. The Court denied the Demurrer on December 4, 2009. On December 21, 2009, Defendants filed an answer to the First Amended Complaint, and trial was set for July 30, 2010. On or about July 29, 2010, the case was settled in its entirety. The Company agreed to pay compensatory damages, attorneys’ fees and costs totaling $493,468, through monthly payments of $50,000, with 6% interest accruing from the date of the settlement. Periodic payments are expected to be made through May 2011. The first payment of $50,000 was made on August 3, 2010 and subsequent principal payments totaling $200,000 were made by the Company through December 31, 2010. Company recorded the entire settlement amount of $493,468 as a note payable, $470,599 as a deposit on fixed assets and the remaining $22,869 as a charge to legal expense. At December 31, 2010, the remaining settlement amount of $243,468 is recorded as a note payable in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet. The Company has recorded accrued interest of $4,126 at December 31, 2010.
Commencing January 1, 2011, the Company has failed to make the scheduled payments required by the July 29, 2010 settlement agreement and stipulation for entry of judgment. The Plaintiff has filed a motion for entry of judgment pursuant to the terms of the July 29, 2010 settlement agreement and stipulation for entry of judgment, which if granted, would cause the acceleration of all amounts owed under the settlement agreement. The parties have requested that this motion be heard on April 21, 2011.
In the ordinary course of business, the Company may face various claims brought by third parties in addition to the claim described above and may, from time to time, make claims or take legal actions to assert the Company’s rights, including intellectual property rights as well as claims relating to employment and the safety or efficacy of the Company’s products. Any of these claims could subject us to costly litigation and, while the Company generally believes that it has adequate insurance to cover many different types of liabilities, the insurance carriers may deny coverage or the policy limits may be inadequate to fully satisfy any damage awards or settlements. If this were to happen, the payment of such awards could have a material adverse effect on the consolidated operations, cash flows and financial position. Additionally, any such claims, whether or not successful, could damage the Company’s reputation and business. Management believes the outcome of currently pending claims and lawsuits will not likely have a material effect on the consolidated operations or financial position.

On December 20, 2010, the Company purchased a vehicle from Mr. Nam for cash to be used for sales and service. The purchase price was $7,000 and was determined to be the estimated fair value of the vehicle at the time of the purchase.
Related Party Payables

Accrued Salary
As of December 31, 2010, the Company owed Mr. Nam $40,000 of salary pursuant to his employment agreement which is included in accrued expenses. Mr. Nam has elected to defer payment of this amount until the next round of funding is received by the Company.
Intangible Assets
On March 31, 2008, the Company entered into a purchase agreement with Immersive, one of the Company’s stockholders, for a GeoImmersive License Agreement, pursuant to which Immersive granted the Company the right to resell data in the Immersive mapping database. The Company paid Immersive $1,000,000 for the license.
On March 16, 2009, the Company revised the terms of the agreement to revise the start of the two year license to begin upon the completion and approval of the post-production data. The revision includes automatic one-year renewals unless either party cancels within 60 days of the end of the contract. Upon the execution of the revision, the Company ceased amortizing the license and tested annually for impairment until the post-production of the data is complete. At December 31, 2009, management performed its annual review to assess potential impairment and deemed the intangible asset to be fully impaired, as management decided to allocate the resources required to map the data elsewhere. As a result, the remaining value of $625,000 was fully amortized as of December 31, 2009.

NOTE 1 — | DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
Organization
T3 Motion, Inc. was incorporated on March 16, 2006, under the laws of the state of Delaware. T3 Motion and its wholly-owned subsidiary, T3 Motion, Ltd. (collectively, the “Company”), develop and manufacture personal mobility vehicles powered by electric motors. The Company’s initial product, the T3 Series, is an electric, three-wheelstand-up vehicle (“ESV”) that is directly targeted to the law enforcement and private security markets. Substantially all of the Company’s revenues to date have been derived from sales of the T3 Series ESVs and related accessories.
The Company has entered into a distribution agreement with CT&T pursuant to which the Company has the exclusive right to market and sell the CT Series Micro Car, which is a low speed, four-wheel electric car, in the U.S. to the government, law enforcement and security markets. The Company is also currently developing the Electric/Hybrid Vehicle, which is a plug-in hybrid vehicle that features a single, wide-stance wheel with two high-performance tires sharing one rear wheel. The Company anticipates introducing the Electric/Hybrid Vehicle in late 2011.
Interim Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“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 accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for complete financial statements. Therefore, these financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report onForm 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010. 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 presentation of the consolidated results for the interim periods. The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2011 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the entire fiscal year.
The Company has evaluated subsequent events through the filing date of this quarterly report onForm 10-Q, and determined that no subsequent events have occurred that would require recognition in the condensed consolidated financial statements or disclosure in the notes thereto other than as disclosed in the accompanying notes.
Going Concern
The Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared using the accrual method of accounting in accordance with 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 incurred significant operating losses and has used substantial amounts of working capital in its operations since its inception (March 16, 2006). Further, at March 31, 2011, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $(46,625,595), a working capital deficit of $(16,545,239) and cash and cash equivalents (including restricted cash) of $154,070. Additionally, the Company used cash in operations of $(803,136) for the three months ended March 31, 2011. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time. These condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
On May 19, 2011, the Company completed a public offering of its securities generating $11.1 million in gross proceeds (see below). In addition to this financing, management has been implementing cost reduction strategies for material, production and service costs and believes that its cash from operations, together with the net proceeds of
F-39
Table of Contents
T3 MOTION, INC.
NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) — (Continued)
the offering, will be sufficient to allow the Company to continue as a going concern through at least December 31, 2011.
The Company anticipates that it will pursue raising additional debt or equity financing to fund its new product development and expansion plans. The Company cannot make any assurances that management’s cost reduction strategies will be effective or that any additional financing will be completed on a timely basis, on acceptable terms or at all. Management’s inability to successfully implement its cost reduction strategies or to complete any other financing will adversely impact the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
Public Offering of the Company’s Equity Securities
On May 16, 2011, the Company announced that it had raised $11.1 million in a public offering of its securities. The offering closed on May 19, 2011, and the Company received net proceeds of $9,678,903 after deducting commissions and offering expenses.
The transaction resulted in the issuance of 3,171,429 units of the Company’s securities. Each unit consists of one share of the Company’s common stock, one Class H warrant and one Class I warrant. Each warrant grants the holder the right to purchase one share of the Company’s common stock. In connection with the offering, the Company effected aone-for-10 reverse stock split of its common stock, which allowed it to meet the minimum share price requirement of the NYSE Amex, LLC, (the “AMEX”). The Company has offered contractual rights to investors that either purchase $500,000 or more of our units in the offering or are converting at least $500,000 of existing securities into substantially identical units. We entered into agreements with such investors that grant them approval rights to certain change of control transactions. Such agreements also granted them approval rights, subject to certain exceptions, to financings at a per share purchase price below the exercise price of their warrants.
Debt and Preferred Stock Conversion into Common Stock and Common Stock Equivalent Securities.
In connection with the AMEX listing and the May public offering, Vision Opportunity Master Fund, Ltd. and Vision Capital Advantage Fund (collectively “Vision”); and Ki Nam, our Chief Executive Officer, will convert their $3.5 million and $2.1 million debentures plus accrued interest, respectively, into 1,138,885 and 632,243 unregistered units. As with the publicly offered units, each unregistered unit consisted of one share of common stock, one Class H warrant and one Class I warrant. Because the units, shares, warrants and warrant shares underlying these units are not registered, we intend to file a registration statement registering such securities within seven days of the closing of the May public offering.
In connection with the AMEX listing, the Company’s preferred stockholders have agreed to convert all outstanding Series A Convertible Preferred Stock into 2,872,574 shares of the Company’s common stock. Included in the conversion of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock are shares held by Vision and Mr. Nam of 9,370,698 and 976,865, respectively, which are convertible into 2,340,176 and 243,956 shares of common stock, respectively. These shares of common stock will also be registered.
1-for-10 Reverse Stock Split
The Company effected aone-for-10 reverse stock split of its common stock after the effectiveness of the registration statement and prior to the closing of the May public offering. All information included in this quarterly filing has been adjusted to reflect the effect of the reverse stock split.
Lock Up Agreement
Upon closing of the offering, Vision and Ki Nam have entered intolock-up agreements pursuant to which such parties have agreed not to sell any shares of our common stock for 12 months, subject to exceptions.

Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of T3 Motion, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiary, T3 Motion Ltd. (UK) (the “subsidiary”). All significant inter-company accounts and transactions are eliminated in consolidation.
Reclassifications
Certain amounts in the 2010 financial statements have been reclassified to conform with the current period presentation.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of condensed consolidated 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 condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Significant estimates include, but are not limited to; collectibility of receivables, recoverability of long-lived assets, realizability of inventories, warranty accruals, valuation of share-based transactions, valuation of derivative liabilities and realizability of 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.
Concentrations of Credit Risk
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company maintains its non-interest bearing transactional cash accounts at financial institutions for which the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) provides unlimited insurance coverage through December 31, 2012. For interest bearing cash accounts, from time to time, 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 March 31, 2011, the Company did not have cash deposits in excess of the FDIC limit.
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. The Company invests its cash in short-term money market accounts.
Restricted Cash
Under a credit card processing agreement with a financial institution, the Company is required to maintain a security deposit as collateral. The amount of the deposit is at the discretion of the financial institution and as of March 31, 2011 was $10,000.
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 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 its allowance for doubtful accounts. At March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the Company had an allowance for doubtful accounts of $47,626 and $50,000, respectively. Although the Company expects to collect amounts due, actual collections may differ from the estimated amounts.
F-41
Table of Contents
T3 MOTION, INC.
NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) — (Continued)
As of March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, one and two customers accounted for approximately 39% and 51% of total accounts receivable, respectively. Two customers accounted for approximately 29% and one customer accounted for approximately 12% of net revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively.
Accounts Payable
As of March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, three and one vendors accounted for approximately 31% and 10% of total accounts payable, respectively. Two vendors accounted for approximately 51% and 22% of purchases for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable, related party receivables, accounts payable, accrued expenses, related party payables, note payable, related party notes payable and derivative liabilities. The carrying value for all such instruments except related party notes payable and derivative liabilities approximates fair value due to the short-term nature of the instruments. The Company cannot determine the fair value of its related party notes payable due to the related party nature and instruments similar to the notes payable could not be found. The Company’s derivative liabilities are recorded at fair value (see Note 6).
The Company determines the fair value of its financial instruments based on a three-level hierarchy for fair value measurements under which these assets and liabilities must be grouped, based on significant levels of observable or unobservable inputs. Observable inputs reflect market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect the Company’s market assumptions. This hierarchy requires the use of observable market data when available. These two types of inputs have created the following fair-value hierarchy:
Level 1 — Valuations based on unadjusted quoted market prices in active markets for identical securities. Currently the Company does not have any items classified as Level 1.
Level 2 — Valuations based on observable inputs (other than Level 1 prices), such as quoted prices for similar assets at the measurement date; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable, either directly or indirectly. Currently the Company does not have any items classified as Level 2.
Level 3 — Valuations based on inputs that are unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement, and involve management judgment. The Company used the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model to determine the fair value of the instruments.
If the inputs used to measure fair value fall in different levels of the fair value hierarchy, a financial security’s hierarchy level is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.
Revenue Recognition
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. The Company ships with either FOB Shipping Point or Destination terms. Shipping documents are used to verify delivery and customer acceptance. For FOB Destination, the Company records revenue when proof of delivery is confirmed by the shipping company. 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 9), and has no other post-shipment obligations. The Company assesses
F-42
Table of Contents
T3 MOTION, INC.
NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) — (Continued)
collectibility 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 revenues, while all costs incurred by the Company for shipping and handling are classified as cost of net revenues.
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 by 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 Series packages (one T3 Series, 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.
Share-Based Compensation
The Company maintains a stock option plan (see Note 8) and records expenses attributable to the stock option plan. The Company amortizes stock-based compensation from the date of grant on a straight-line basis over the requisite service (vesting) period for the entire award using the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model.
The Company accounts for equity instruments issued to consultants and vendors in exchange for goods and services in accordance with the accounting standards. The measurement date for the fair value of the equity instruments issued is determined at the earlier of (i) the date at which a commitment for performance by the consultant or vendor is reached or (ii) the date at which the consultant or vendor’s performance is complete. In the case of equity instruments issued to consultants, the fair value of the equity instrument is recognized over the term of the consulting agreement.
In accordance with the accounting standards, an asset acquired in exchange for the issuance of fully vested, non-forfeitable equity instruments should not be presented or classified as an offset to equity on the grantor’s balance sheet once the equity instrument is granted for accounting purposes. Accordingly, the Company records the fair value of the fully vested, non-forfeitable common stock issued for future consulting services as prepaid expense in its consolidated balance sheets.
Upon the exercise of common stock options, the Company issues new shares from its authorized shares.
Loss Per Share
Basic loss per share is computed by dividing loss applicable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares assumed to be outstanding during the period of computation. Diluted loss per share is computed similar to basic loss per share except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if potential shares underlying derivative securities such as options, warrants and convertible notes had been issued and if the additional common shares were dilutive. Options, warrants and shares associated with the conversion of debt and preferred stock to purchase approximately 5.8 million and 4.9 million shares of common stock were outstanding at March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively, but were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share due to the net losses for the periods.

Immersive Note
On December 31, 2007, the Company issued a 12% secured promissory note in the principal amount of $2,000,000 to Immersive, one of the Company’s shareholders. On March 31, 2008, the Company repaid $1,000,000 of the principal amount. The note was originally due December 31, 2008 and is secured by all of the Company’s assets (see subsequent amendments to the note below).
In connection with the issuance of the promissory note, the Company issued a warrant to Immersive for the purchase of 69,764 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $10.80 per share. The warrants are immediately exercisable. The Company recorded a debt discount of $485,897 related to the fair value of the warrants, which was calculated using the Black-Scholes Merton option pricing model. The debt discount was amortized to interest expense over the original term of the promissory note.
First Amendment to Immersive Note
On December 19, 2008, the Company amended the terms of the promissory note with Immersive to, among other things, extend the maturity date of the outstanding balance of $1,000,000 from December 31, 2008 to March 31, 2010 and give Immersive the option to convert the promissory note during the pendency and prior to the closing of an equity offering into units of the Company’s securities at an original conversion price of $16.50 per unit. Each unit consists of one share of the Company’s common stock and a warrant to purchase a share of the Company’s common stock at $20.00 per share. In the event the Company issues common stock or common stock equivalents for cash consideration in a subsequent financing at an effective price per share less than the original conversion price, the conversion price will reset. The amended terms of the note resulted in terms that were substantially different from the terms of the original note. As a result, the modification was treated as an extinguishment of debt during the year ended December 31, 2008. There was no gain or loss recognized in connection with the extinguishment. At the date of the amendment, the Company did not record the value of the conversion feature as the conversion option was contingent on a future event.
In December 2009, the Company issued 2,000,000 shares of its Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (“Preferred Stock”) in connection with an equity offering. As a result of the December 2009 equity offering, the Company recorded the estimated fair value of the conversion feature of $1,802 as a debt discount and amortized such amount to interest expense through the maturity of the note on March 31, 2010. The Company recorded the
F-46
Table of Contents
T3 MOTION, INC.
NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) — (Continued)
corresponding amount as a derivative liability and any change in fair value of the conversion feature was recorded through earnings.
As consideration for extending the terms of the promissory note in December 2008, the Company agreed to issue warrants to Immersive for the purchase of up to 25,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $20.00 per share, subject to adjustment. For every three months that the promissory note is outstanding, the Company issued Immersive a warrant to purchase 5,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. During the year ended December 31, 2009, the Company issued warrants to Immersive to purchase 20,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. The Company recorded a debt discount of $139,778 based on the estimated fair value of the warrants issued during the year ended December 31, 2009. As a result of the December 2009 equity offering, the exercise price of the warrants was adjusted to $5.00 per share (see Note 6 for a discussion on derivative liabilities). During the year ended December 31, 2010, the Company issued the remaining 5,000 warrants under the note. The Company recorded an additional debt discount of $15,274 based on the estimated fair value of the 5,000 warrants issued during the year ended December 31, 2010.
During the three months ended March 31, 2010, the Company amortized $56,539 of the debt discounts to interest expense. As of March 31, 2010, prior to the second amendment to the Immersive note (see below), the debt discounts were fully amortized to interest expense.
Second Amendment to Immersive Note
On March 31, 2010, Immersive agreed to extend the note to April 30, 2010. As consideration for extending the note, the Company agreed to exchange Immersive’s Class A warrants to purchase up to 69,764 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $10.80 per share and its Class D warrants to purchase up to 25,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at an adjusted exercise price of $7.00 per share, for Class G warrants to purchase up to 69,764 shares and 25,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, respectively, each with an exercise price of $7.00 per share. The Company recorded a debt discount and derivative liability of $1,898 based on the incremental increase in the estimated fair value of the re-pricing of the 25,000 warrants. The Company recorded an additional debt discount and derivative liability in the amount of $216,811 based on the estimated fair value of the 69,764 warrants issued. The total debt discount was amortized in April 2010. The amended terms did not result in terms that were substantially different from the terms of the original note. Therefore, there was no extinguishment of debt as a result of the second amendment.
The note and accrued interest were not repaid in full by April 30, 2010. As a result, per the agreement, the maturity date was extended to March 31, 2011 and the Company issued Class G warrants to purchase up to 104,,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $7.00 per share. The interest rate, which compounds annually, was also amended to 15.0%. The Company recorded interest expense of $37,500 and $30,000, related to the stated rate of interest during the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively, and had accrued interest of $147,500 and $110,000 at March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively. The terms of the Class G warrants issued to Immersive are substantially similar to prior Class G warrants issued by the Company. The Company recorded a debt discount of $329,120 related to the fair value of the warrants issued. Amortization of this debt discount was $108,879 and $0 for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively, resulting in an unamortized debt discount balance of $0 at March 31, 2011.
Third Amendment to Immersive Note
On March 30, 2011, Immersive agreed to extend the note to April 30, 2011. As consideration for extending the note, the Company agreed to increase the interest rate to 19% per annum compounded annually commencing on April 1, 2011. The amended terms of the note did not result in terms that were substantially different from the terms of the original note, therefore there was no extinguishment of debt.

December 30, 2009 — 10% Convertible Debenture
On December 30, 2009, the Company sold $3,500,000 in debentures and warrants to Vision through a private placement pursuant to a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”). The Company issued to Vision, 10% secured convertible debentures (“Debentures”), with an aggregate principal value of $3,500,000.
The Debentures accrue interest on the unpaid principal balance at a rate equal to 10% per annum. The maturity date of the Debentures was December 30, 2010 (see below). At any time after the 240th calendar day following the issue date, the Debentures are convertible into “units” of Company securities at a conversion price of $1.00 per unit, subject to adjustment. Each “unit” consists of one share of the Company’s Preferred Stock and a warrant to purchase one share of our common stock. As a result of the 240th day passing, the Company recorded an additional debt discount and corresponding derivative liability in the amount of $275,676 during the year ended December 31, 2010 (see Note 6). The Company may redeem the Debentures in whole or part at any time after June 30, 2010 for cash in an amount equal to 120% of the principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest and certain other amounts due in respect of the Debenture. Interest on the Debentures is payable in cash on the maturity date or, if sooner, upon conversion or redemption of the Debentures. In the event of default under the terms of the Debentures, the interest rate increases to 15% per annum. The Company recorded interest expense of $87,500 and $88,232, related to the stated rate of interest, for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively, and had accrued interest of $439,444 and $350,959 as of March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively.

The Purchase Agreement also provides that from December 30, 2009 to the date that the Debentures are no longer outstanding, if the Company effects a Subsequent Financing, Vision may elect, in its sole discretion, to exchange some or all of the Debentures then held by Vision for any securities issued in a Subsequent Financing on a “$1.00 for $1.00” basis (the “Exchange”); provided, however, that the securities issued in a Subsequent Financing will be irrevocably convertible, exercisable, exchangeable, or resettable (or any other similar feature) based on the price equal to the lesser of (i) the conversion price, exercise price, exchange price, or reset price (or such similar price) in such Subsequent Financing and (ii) $1.00 per share of common stock. Vision is obligated to elect the Exchange on a $0.90 per $1.00 basis (not a $1.00 for $1.00 basis) if certain conditions regarding the Subsequent Financing and other matters are met.
Also pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, Vision received Class G common stock purchase warrants (the “Class G Warrants”). Pursuant to the terms of the Class G Warrants, Vision is entitled to purchase up to an aggregate of 350,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $7.00 per share, subject to adjustment. The Class G Warrants have a term of five years after the issue date of December 30, 2009.

NOTE 6 — | DERIVATIVE LIABILITIES |
The Company recognizes the accounting standard that provides guidance for determining whether an equity-linked financial instrument, or embedded feature, is indexed to an entity’s own stock. The standard applies to any freestanding financial instruments or embedded features that have the characteristics of a derivative, and to any freestanding financial instruments that are potentially settled in an entity’s own common stock.
During 2010, the Company issued 104,000 warrants, respectively, related to convertible debt (see Note 5). During 2010, the Company exchanged 69,764 of Class A warrants and 25,000 of Class B warrants for 94,764 Class G warrants (see Note 5). The Company also recorded an additional derivative liability of $275,676 related to the Vision Debentures during the year ended December 31, 2010 (see Note 5). The Company estimated the fair

value of the warrants and conversion options at the dates of issuance and recorded a debt discount and corresponding derivative liability of $838,779 during 2010. The debt discount was amortized over the remaining life of the related debt. The change in fair value of the derivative liability is recorded through earnings at each reporting date.
During 2010, the Company issued additional warrants of 231,000, related to Preferred Stock (see Note 7). The Company estimated the fair value of the warrants of $716,236 at the date of issuance and recorded a discount on the issuance of the equity and a corresponding derivative liability. The discount is recorded as a deemed dividend with a reduction to retained earnings. The change in fair value of the derivative is recorded through earnings at each reporting date.
During 2010, the Company recorded a discount on the issuance of Preferred Stock and a corresponding derivative liability of $685,124, related to the anti-dilution provision of the Preferred Stock issued. The discount is recorded as a deemed dividend with a reduction to retained earnings during the24-month period that the anti-dilution provision is outstanding. The change in fair value of the derivative liabilities is recorded through earnings at each reporting date.
During the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, the amortization of the discounts related to the Preferred Stock anti-dilution provision and warrants issued was $864,800 and $1,672,882, respectively, which was recorded as a deemed dividend.
On March 22, 2010, one of the Company’s preferred shareholders exercised their option to convert their 2,000,000 preferred shares into 400,000 shares of common stock (see Note 7). As a result of the conversion, the Company reclassified the balance of the derivative liability of $1,121,965 to additional paid-in capital and the balance of the discount of $1,099,742 as a deemed dividend.
As of March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the unamortized discount related to the conversion feature of the Preferred Stock was $3,398,268 and $4,263,068, respectively.
During the three months ended March 31, 2010, the Company recorded additional debt discount and derivative liabilities of $15,274, related to related party notes payable (see Note 5).
The common stock purchase warrants were not issued with the intent of effectively hedging any future cash flow, fair value of any asset, liability or any net investment in a foreign operation. The warrants do not qualify for hedge accounting, and as such, all future changes in the fair value of these warrants will be recognized currently in earnings until such time as the warrants are exercised or expire. These common stock purchase warrants do not trade in an active securities market, and as such, the Company estimates the fair value of these warrants and embedded conversion features using the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model using the following assumptions:

(Unaudited) | ||
Annual dividend yield | — | |
Expected life (years) | 0.25-4.08 | |
Risk-free interest rate | 0.30%-2.24% | |
Expected volatility | 155%-156% |
Expected volatility is based primarily on historical volatility of the Company, using weekly pricing observations, and the Company’s peer group, using daily pricing observations. Historical volatility was computed for recent periods that correspond to the expected term. The Company believes this method produces an estimate that is representative of its expectations of future volatility over the expected term of these warrants.
The Company currently has no reason to believe future volatility over the expected remaining life of these warrants is likely to differ materially from historical volatility. The expected life is based on the remaining term of

the warrants. The risk-free interest rate is based on one-year to five-year U.S. Treasury securities consistent with the remaining term of the instrument.
During the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, the Company recorded other income of $989,737 and $753,727, respectively, related to the change in fair value of the warrants and embedded conversion options and is included in other income, net in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations.

NOTE 7 — | EQUITY |
Series A Convertible Preferred Stock
The Company’s Board of Directors has authorized 20,000,000 shares of Series A preferred stock (“Preferred”). Except as otherwise provided in the Series A Certificate or by law, each holder of shares of Preferred shall have no voting rights. As long as any shares of Preferred are outstanding, however, the Company shall not, without the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the then outstanding shares of the Preferred, (a) alter or change adversely the powers, preferences, or rights given to the Preferred or alter or amend the Series A Certificate, (b) authorize or create any class of stock ranking as to dividends, redemption or distribution of assets upon a liquidation senior to or otherwise pari passu with the Preferred, (c) amend its certificate of incorporation or other charter documents in any manner that adversely affects any rights of the holders of Preferred, (d) increase the number of authorized shares of the Preferred, or (e) enter into any agreement with respect to any of the foregoing.
Each share of Preferred is convertible at any time and from time to time after the issue date at the holder’s option into two shares of the Company’s common stock (subject to beneficial ownership limitations (each as defined below)).
Holders of our Preferred are restricted from converting their shares of Preferred to common stock if the number of shares of common stock to be issued pursuant to such conversion would cause the number of shares of common stock beneficially owned by such holder, together with its affiliates, at such time to exceed 4.99% of the then issued

and outstanding shares of common stock; provided, however, that such holder may waive this limitation upon 61 days’ notice to the Company. The Company has not received any such notice. There are no redemption rights.
The Conversion Price shall be proportionately reduced for a stock dividend, stock split, subdivision, combination or similar arrangements. The Conversion Price will also be reduced for any sale of common stock (or options, warrants or convertible debt or other derivative securities) at a purchase price per share less than the Conversion Price, subject to certain excepted issuances. The Conversion Price will be reduced to such purchase price if such issuance occurs within the first 12 months of the original issuance date. The Conversion Price will be reduced to a price derived using a weighted-average formula if the issuance occurs after the first 12 months but before the 24 month anniversary of the original issuance date.
If, at any time while the Preferred is outstanding, (A) the Company effects any merger or consolidation of the Company with or into another person, (B) the Company effects any sale of all or substantially all of its assets in one transaction or a series of related transactions, (C) any tender offer or exchange offer (whether by the Company or another person) is completed pursuant to which holders of common stock are permitted to tender or exchange their shares for other securities, cash or property, or (D) the Company effects any reclassification of the common stock or any compulsory share exchange pursuant to which the common stock is effectively converted into or exchanged for other securities, cash or property (in any such case, a “Fundamental Transaction”), then, upon any subsequent conversion of Preferred, the holders shall have the right to receive, for each Conversion Share (as defined in Section 1 of the Series A Certificate) that would have been issuable upon such conversion immediately prior to the occurrence of such Fundamental Transaction, the same kind and amount of securities, cash or property as it would have been entitled to receive upon the occurrence of such Fundamental Transaction if it had been, immediately prior to such Fundamental Transaction, the holder of one share of common stock.
On March 22, 2010, one of the Company’s preferred shareholders exercised their option to convert their 2,000,000 preferred shares into 400,000 shares of common stock.
During the three months ended March 31, 2010, the Company issued and sold 1,155,000 shares of preferred stock through an equity financing transaction. In connection with the financing, the Company issued warrants to purchase 231,000 shares of common stock, exercisable at $7.00 per share. The warrants are exercisable for five years (See Note 6 for additional discussion).
Per the terms of the May public offering, all shares of Series A convertible preferred stock will be converted into 2,872,574 shares of our common stock.
Common Stock
In September 2008, the Company sold to Piedmont Select Equity Fund (“Piedmont”) 12,500 shares of its common stock at $20.00 per share for an aggregate price of $250,000. In December 2008, the Company entered into a rescission agreement with Piedmont in which it agreed to rescind the Piedmont’s stock purchase so long as affiliates of Piedmont were to purchase at least $250,000 of Company equity securities. In March 2010, two investors affiliated with Piedmont purchased an aggregate of 250,000 shares of the Company’s Series A Preferred Stock at $1.00 per share and warrants to purchase 50,000 shares of Company common stock for a purchase price of $250,000. Concurrent with the closing of such offering, the Company rescinded the purchase of the 12,500 shares of common stock. Piedmont delivered the stock certificate for 12,500 shares to the Company and the Company returned the original purchase price of $250,000 to Piedmont.

employees, nonemployee members of the Company’s board of directors, consultants or other independent advisors who provide services to the Company. The 2007 Plan is administered by the board of directors. The 2007 Plan permits the issuance of up to 745,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. Options granted under the 2007 Plan generally vest 25% per year over four years and expire 10 years from the date of grant. The 2007 Plan was terminated with respect to the issuance of new options or awards upon the adoption of the 2010 Stock Option/Stock Issuance Plan (the “2010 Plan”); no further options or awards may be granted under the 2007 Plan.
During 2010, the Company adopted the 2010 Plan, under which stock awards or options to acquire shares of the Company’s common stock may be granted to employees, nonemployee members of the Company’s board of directors, consultants or other independent advisors who provide services to the Company. The 2010 Plan is administered by the Company’s board of directors. The 2010 Plan permits the issuance of up to 650,000 shares of the Company’s common stock.

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. The Company has only granted service 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 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 granted by the Company, along with certain other pertinent information:

Expected volatility | 205 | % | ||
Risk-free interest rate | 2.6 | % | ||
Expected dividends | — | |||
Forefeiture rate | 2.8 | % |
Upon the exercise of common stock options, the Company issues new shares from its authorized shares.
At March 31, 2011, the amount of unearned stock-based compensation currently estimated to be expensed from fiscal 2011 through 2015 related to unvested common stock options is approximately $2.4 million. The weighted-average period over which the unearned stock-based compensation is expected to be recognized is approximately 3.3 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.

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.

(“Plaintiff”) filed suit in Orange County Superior Court, alleging causes of actions against T3 Motion, Inc., Ki Nam, the Company’s CEO, and Jason Kim, the Company’s former COO (collectively the “Defendants”) for breach of contract, conspiracy, fraud and common counts, arising out of a purchase order allegedly executed between Plaintiff and the Company. On August 24, 2009,

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) — (Continued)
Defendants filed a Demurrer to the Complaint. Prior to the hearing on the Demurrer, Plaintiff filed a First Amended Complaint against Defendants for breach of contract, fraud and common counts, seeking compensatory damages of $470,599, attorney’s fees, punitive damages, interest and costs. On October 27, 2009, Defendants filed a Demurrer, challenging various causes of action in the First Amended Complaint. The Court denied the Demurrer on December 4, 2009. On December 21, 2009, Defendants filed an answer to the First Amended Complaint, and trial was set for July 30, 2010. On or about July 29, 2010, the case was settled in its entirety. The Company agreed to pay compensatory damages, attorneys’ fees and costs totaling $493,468, through monthly payments of $50,000, with 6% interest accruing from the date of the settlement. Periodic payments are expected to be made through May 2011. The first payment of $50,000 was made on August 3, 2010 and subsequent principal payments totaling $200,000 were made by the Company through December 31, 2010. Company recorded the entire settlement amount of $493,468 as a note payable, $470,599 as a deposit on fixed assets and the remaining $22,869 as a charge to legal expense. At December 31, 2010, the remaining settlement amount of $243,468 was recorded as a note payable in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet. The Company has recorded accrued interest of $8,040 and $4,126 at March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively.
Commencing January 1, 2011, the Company has failed to make the scheduled payments required by the July 29, 2010 settlement agreement and stipulation for entry of judgment. As a result, the Plaintiff filed a motion for entry of judgment pursuant to the terms of the July 29, 2010 settlement agreement and stipulation for entry of judgment, which if granted, would cause the acceleration of all amounts owed under the settlement agreement. While the motion has been pending, the Company has made principal payments totaling $150,000. This motion is now scheduled to be heard on June 16, 2011.
In the ordinary course of business, the Company may face various claims brought by third parties in addition to the claim described above and may, from time to time, make claims or take legal actions to assert the Company’s rights, including intellectual property rights as well as claims relating to employment and the safety or efficacy of the Company’s products. Any of these claims could subject us to costly litigation and, while the Company generally believes that it has adequate insurance to cover many different types of liabilities, the insurance carriers may deny coverage or the policy limits may be inadequate to fully satisfy any damage awards or settlements. If this were to happen, the payment of such awards could have a material adverse effect on the consolidated operations, cash flows and financial position. Additionally, any such claims, whether or not successful, could damage the Company’s reputation and business. Management believes the outcome of currently pending claims and lawsuits will not likely have a material effect on the consolidated operations or financial position.
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 leases, the Company has indemnified its lessors for certain claims arising from the use of the facilities. 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 condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Public Offering of the Company’s Equity Securities
On May 16, 2011, the Company announced that it had raised $11.1 million in a public offering of its securities. The offering closed on May 19, 2011, and the Company received net proceeds of $9,678,903 after deducting commissions and offering expenses.
The transaction resulted in the issuance of 3,171,429 units of the Company’s securities. Each unit consists of one share of the Company’s common stock, one Class H warrant and one Class I warrant. Each warrant grants the holder the right to purchase one share of the Company’s common stock. In connection with the offering, the Company effected aone-for-10 reverse stock split of its common stock, which allowed it to meet the minimum share price requirement of the NYSE Amex, LLC, (the “AMEX”). The Company has offered contractual rights to investors that either purchase $500,000 or more of our units in the offering or are converting at least $500,000 of existing securities into substantially identical units. We entered into agreements with such investors that grant them approval rights to certain change of control transactions. Such agreements also granted them approval rights, subject to certain exceptions, to financings at a per share purchase price below the exercise price of their warrants.
Debt and Preferred Stock Conversion into Common Stock and Common Stock Equivalent Securities.
In connection with the AMEX listing and the May public offering, Vision Opportunity Master Fund, Ltd. and Vision Capital Advantage Fund (collectively “Vision”); and Ki Nam, our Chief Executive Officer, will convert their $3.5 million and $2.1 million debentures plus accrued interest, respectively, into 1,138,885 and 632,243 unregistered units. As with the publicly offered units, each unregistered unit consisted of one share of common stock, one Class H warrant and one Class I warrant. Because the units, shares, warrants and warrant shares underlying these units are not registered, we intend to file a registration statement registering such securities within seven days of the closing of the May public offering.
In connection with the AMEX listing, the Company’s preferred stockholders have agreed to convert all outstanding Series A Convertible Preferred Stock into 2,872,574 shares of the Company’s common stock. Included in the conversion of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock are shares held by Vision and Mr. Nam of 9,370,698 and 976,865, respectively, which are convertible into 2,340,176 and 243,956 shares of common stock, respectively. These shares of common stock will also be registered.
1-for-10 Reverse Stock Split
The Company effected aone-for-10 reverse stock split of its common stock after the effectiveness of the registration statement and prior to the closing of the May public offering. All information included in this quarterly filing has been adjusted to reflect the effect of the reverse stock split.
Lock Up Agreement
Upon closing of the offering, Vision and Ki Nam have entered intolock-up agreements pursuant to which such parties have agreed not to sell any shares of our common stock for 12 months, subject to exceptions.
Immersive Note Repayment
On May 20, 2011, the Company paid Immersive the balance of $1,121,861, including all accrued interest due under the note.
Amendment to Certain Class G Warrants
During May 2011, the Company entered into agreements with certain Class G warrant holders to waive the price-based, anti-dilution protection provisions and fix the exercise price per share of the Common Stock under the Warrant to $5.00.

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 certificate 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. |
All common share and per common share information assumes aone-for-10 reverse stock split of our common stock. In December 2007, we completed an offering of our common stock to Immersive Media Corp. We issued 185,185 shares of our common stock for cash at $16.20 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 69,764 shares at $10.81 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 (“Securities Act”), as amended.
In March 2008, we completed an offering of our common stock to one shareholder. We issued 389,610 shares of our common stock and warrants to purchase 129,870, 129,870, and 129,870 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $10.80, $17.70 and $20.00 per share, respectively, for cash at an aggregate price of $3,000,000. 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.
In May 2008, we completed an offering of an aggregate of 39,964 shares of our common stock at $16.50 per share to 41 accredited investors (the “Offering”) pursuant to subscription agreements for an aggregate price of $644,554.

On December 30, 2008, we sold $2.2 million in debentures and warrants through a private placement. We issued to certain purchasers, 10% Secured Convertible Debentures (“December 2008 Debentures”) with an aggregate principal value of $2,200,000. The December 2008 Debentures are currently convertible into shares of $15.40 per share. The conversion price was subject to further adjustment upon certain events. Such purchasers also received Series D Common Stock Purchase Warrants (the “Warrants”). Pursuant to the terms of Warrants, these purchasers are entitled to purchase up to an aggregate 66,667 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $20.00 per share. The Warrants have a term of five years after the issue date of December 30, 2008. Each of these purchasers represented that they were “accredited” investors as defined under Rule 144 of the Securities Act. We relied upon the exemption from registration as set forth in Section 4 (2) of the Securities Act for the issuance of these securities.
On May 28, 2009, we issued debentures that are convertible into approximately 60,000 shares of common stock and warrants to purchase 30,000 shares of common stock to certain investors.

In addition, we issued to another investor, an aggregate of 9,370,698 shares of Preferred Stock. 3,055,000 shares of Preferred Stock were issued in exchange for the delivery and cancellation of 10% Secured Convertible Debentures we previously issued to such investor in the principal amount of $2,200,000 and $600,000 plus accrued interest of $255,000; 2,263,750 shares of Preferred Stock were issued in exchange for the delivery and cancellation of Series A, B, C, D, E and F warrants we previously issued to such investor; and 4,051,948 shares of Preferred Stock were issued to satisfy our obligation to issue equity to such investor pursuant to a Securities Purchase Agreement dated on March 24, 2008, as amended on May 28, 2009.

Table of Contents
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) and 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;
(iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement;
Provided, however, that paragraphs 1(i) and 1(ii) of this section do not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in periodic reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the registrant pursuant to section 13 or section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are incorporated by reference in the registration statement; and
Paragraphs 1(i), 1(ii) and 1(iii) of this section do not apply if information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the registrant pursuant to section 13 or section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are incorporated by reference in the registration statement, or is contained in a form of prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) that is part of the registration statement.
(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed 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) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.
(4) That, for the purpose of determining liability under the Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser:
(a) Each prospectus filed by the registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(3)shall be deemed to be part of the registration statement as of the date the filed prospectus was deemed part of and included in the registration statement; and
(b) Each prospectus required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424(b)(2), (b)(5), or (b)(7) as part of a registration statement in reliance on Rule 430B relating to an offering made pursuant to Rule 415(a)(1)(i), (vii), or (x) for the purpose of providing the information required by section 10(a) of the Securities Act of 1933 shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of the earlier of the date such form of prospectus is first used after effectiveness or the date of the first contract of sale of securities in the offering described in the prospectus. As provided in Rule 430B, for liability purposes of the issuer and any person that is at that date an underwriter, such date shall be deemed to be a new effective date of the registration statement relating to the securities in the registration statement to which that prospectus relates, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
Provided, however, that no statement made in a registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement or made in a document incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference into the registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement will, as to a purchaser with a time of contract of sale prior to such effective date, supersede or modify any statement that was made in the registration statement or prospectus that was part of the registration statement or made in any such document immediately prior to such effective date;
(5) That, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the registrant’s annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan’s annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that is incorporated by reference in this registration statement 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) That,
(a) For purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, the information omitted from the form of prospectus filed as part of this registration statement in reliance upon Rule 430A and contained in a form of prospectus filed by the registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(1) or (4) or 497(h) under the Securities Act shall be deemed to be part of this registration statement as of the time it was declared effective.

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the provisions described under Item 15 above, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities, other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant 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, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
