We were incorporated in the state of California on October 11, 2007. Our principal executive offices are located at 18653 Ventura Blvd., Suite 640, Tarzana, California 91356. Our telephone number is 310-597-2910.

You should carefully consider the following risk factors, in addition to the other information in this prospectus, before deciding to invest in our common stock.
We have just commenced operations and need the proceeds from this offering to prepare out initial product for sale. Accordingly, we have no revenues from operations to pay our operating expenses. In addition, we expect to accelerate our losses as we begin to generate expenses by labeling and rolling out our initial product. If we are not successful in generating sales our business may fail.
If we do not obtain additional funding as needed, we may be unable to fund our business operations and to adequately pursue our business plan.
Our business plan requires significant ongoing expenditures for the marketing of our products. It is possible that we will need additional outside funding sources in the future to continue the development and the promotion of our business. If we are not successful in obtaining additional funding for operations if and when needed, we may have to discontinue some or all of our business activities and our stockholders might lose all of their investment.
If we fail to convince the market place that we have superior products, we will not be commercially successful.
Even if we are successful in offering sports and nutrition drinks superior to those of our competitors, it will be necessary for us to educate and convince the market place of that superiority. If we are unable to do so, we will not be able to achieve the market penetration necessary to become commercially successful and our investors may lose their investments.
If we cannot retain or hire qualified personnel, our programs could be delayed.
We are dependent on our president who has contacts in the sports industry. The loss of his services could disrupt our business activities. We believe that our future success will depend in large part upon our ability to attract and retain persons well connected in the sports and nutrition drink industries. We face intense competition for these kinds of personnel from other companies and organizations. We might not be successful in hiring or retaining the personnel needed for success.
We are dependent upon a third party vendor to produce our initial product.
Our initial product is licensed from a third party vendor. Accordingly, we are dependent upon this vendor to provide the product for us to sell. If this vendor is either unable or unwilling to provide us with the necessary products to sell, it is likely we will be unable to develop our business plan and our business may fail.
Investors will be unable to sell their securities if no market develops for those securities.
No market exists at the present time for our common shares. Investors in the offering will purchase securities that cannot be resold by those investors since no market exists. Even though we intend to create a public market for our common shares, there can be no assurance when the market will develop or if the market will ever develop. If we are not successful in developing a market for our common shares, investors will not be able to sell their securities.
At the present time we are in an economic downturn and persons may not use their discretionary income to purchase expensive sports drinks.
Sports drinks are a way to hydrate the body during physical activity. Expensive sports drinks rather than plain water is typically considered a luxury rather than a necessity. In an economic downturn, many persons that would otherwise purchase sports drinks may of necessity use their limited resources for other products and services. In this event, it will be more difficult for us to promote our sports and nutrition drink products and accordingly more difficult for us to achieve financial viability as a business. Under this set of circumstances, it will be less likely our stockholders will receive a return on their investments.
The net proceeds we will receive from the sale of the shares of common stock offered by us will be approximately $972,500, if the maximum numbers of shares are sold, after deducting offering expenses. The principal purpose of this offering is to increase our working capital in order for us to proceed with the execution of our business plan. As of the date of this prospectus, we have not made any specific expenditure plans with respect to the proceeds of this offering. Accordingly, our management will have significant flexibility in applying the net proceeds of the offering.
The actual expenditures of the proceeds of this offering will be determined by our board of directors in the best interests of advancing our business. The actual expenditures will also vary from the estimated use of proceeds if less than all of the shares offered are sold.
We expect to use the net proceeds from this offering as follows:
| Assuming all shares are sold | Assuming 50% of the shares are sold | Assuming 25% of the shares are sold | Assuming 10% of the shares are sold |
Gross Proceeds | $1,000,000 | $500,000 | $250,000 | $100,000 |
Offering Expenses | 27,500 | 27,500 | 27,500 | 27,500 |
Net Proceeds | 972,500 | 472,500 | 222,500 | 72,500 |
Payment of Debt | 100,000 | 100,000 | 50,000 | 25,000 |
Purchase of Inventory | 100,000 | 50,000 | 25,000 | 5,000 |
Marketing Expense | 400,000 | 150,000 | 75,000 | 10,000 |
Working Capital | 372,500 | 172,500 | 72,500 | 32,500 |
Total | $1,000,000 | $500,000 | $250,000 | $100,000 |
Inventory purchases will be the sports drink labeled “Science Water”. Marketing expenses will include the advertising promotion of the Science Water drink through different forms of media as to be determined by management. Working capital will be used to support our business operations including salaries, rent, utilities and supplies. If we expand our operations at the rate we hope to, working capital will be necessary to pay the expenses of new employees.
DETERMINATION OF OFFERING PRICE
The $0.10 per share offering price of our common stock was arbitrarily determined based on our current perceived financing needs. There is no relationship whatsoever between this price and our assets, book value or any other objective criteria of value.
DILUTION
The following table illustrates the percentages of investment capital paid by current shareholders of Science Water compared to investment capital to be paid by investors in the Science Water offering and the percentages held by each in Science Water following the offering.

DISCLOSURE OF COMMISSION POSITION OF INDEMNIFICATION
FOR SECURITIES ACT LIABILITIES
Our directors and officers are indemnified as provided by the laws of the state of California and our Bylaws. We have been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act, and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities is asserted by one of our directors, officers, or controlling persons in connection with the securities being registered, we will, unless in the opinion of our legal counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit the question of whether such indemnification is against public policy to a court of appropriate jurisdiction. We will then be governed by the court's decision.
MARKET FOR OUR COMMON STOCK AND
RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS
There is no public market for our common stock.
OPTION, WARRANTS AND REGISTRATION RIGHTS
We have no outstanding options or warrants to purchase, or securities convertible into, common equity of Science Water. There are no shares Science Water has agreed to register under the Securities Act for sale by
security holders.
RULE 144 SHARES
No shares of our common stock are available for resale to the public in accordance with the volume and trading limitations of Rule 144 of the Act.
In general, under Rule 144 as currently in effect, a person who has beneficially owned shares of a company's common stock for at least six months is entitled to sell the shares under certain circumstances. Sales under Rule 144 are subject to manner of sale provisions and notice requirements and to the availability of current public information about the company.
Also under Rule 144, a person who is not one of the company's affiliates at any time during the three months preceding a sale, and who has beneficially owned the shares proposed to be sold for at least one year, is entitled to sell shares even if there is no current public information about the company as long as the company has never been a shell corporation. Until recently, Science Water has been a shell corporation. Therefore, no shares of the common stock of Science Water may be sold pursuant to Rule 144 until this registration statement becomes effective and applicable time periods lapse.
PENNY STOCK RULES
The Securities Exchange Commission has also adopted rules that regulate broker-dealer practices in connection with transactions in penny stocks. Penny stocks are generally equity securities with a price of less than $5.00 (other than securities registered on certain national securities exchanges or quoted on the Nasdaq system, provided that current price and volume information with respect to transactions in such securities is provided by the exchange or system).
The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from those rules, deliver a standardized risk disclosure document prepared by the Commission, which:
· | contains a description of the nature and level of risk in the market for penny stocks in both public offerings and secondary trading; |
· | contains a description of the broker's or dealer's duties to the customer and of the rights and remedies available to the customer with respect to a violation to such duties or other requirements of Securities' laws; |
· | contains a brief, clear, narrative description of a dealer market, including "bid" and "ask" prices for penny stocks and significance of the spread between the "bid" and "ask" price; |
· | contains a toll-free telephone number for inquiries on disciplinary actions; |
· | defines significant terms in the disclosure document or in the conduct of trading in penny stocks; and |
· | contains such other information and is in such form (including language, type, size and format), as the Commission shall require by rule or regulation. |
The broker-dealer also must provide, prior to effecting any transaction in a penny stock, the customer:
· | with bid and offer quotations for the penny stock; |
· | the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson in the transaction; |
· | the number of shares to which such bid and ask prices apply, or other comparable information relating to the depth and liquidity of the market for such stock; and |
· | monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer's account. |
In addition, the penny stock rules require that prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from those rules; the broker-dealer must make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser's written acknowledgment of the receipt of a risk disclosure statement, a written agreement to transactions involving penny stocks, and a signed and dated copy of a written suitability statement. These disclosure requirements will have the effect of reducing the trading activity in the secondary market for our stock because it will be subject to these penny stock rules and because many broker-dealers refuse to enter into penny stock transactions rather than comply with the rules. Therefore, stockholders may have difficulty selling those securities.
HOLDERS OF OUR COMMON STOCK
As of the date of this registration statement, we have one shareholder.
DIVIDENDS
There are no restrictions in our Articles of Incorporation or bylaws that restrict us from declaring dividends. The corporate laws of the state of California, however, do prohibit us from declaring dividends where, after giving effect to the distribution of the dividend:
1. We would not be able to pay our debts as they become due in the usual course of business; or
2. Our total assets would be less than the sum of our total liabilities, plus the amount that would be needed to satisfy the rights of shareholders who have preferential rights superior to those receiving the distribution.
We have not declared any dividends. We do not plan to declare any dividends in the foreseeable future.
BUSINESS
Introduction
In 1984, L. H. Lorenzen began scientific research for the purpose of developing a form of water that would be more effective in hydrating the body than regular water. His research led to the issuance of two patents, the first in 1998 and the second in 2000, and the development of a water product that is more effective in hydrating the body and delivering nutrients to the cells of the body that regular water. This new water has been styled Clustered Water and has been marketed under the name VIVO Water by Cluster Solutions, Inc. since the year 2000. VIVO Water has been marketed through a limited number of chain stores including Mothers’ Markets, Albertson’s, Sav-On, and Jewel-Osco. Cluster Solutions, Inc. has also marketed VIVO Water directly to the consumer via the Internet. Gross sales of VIVO Water are now approximately $3.5 million annually. However, these sales figures should not be considered an estimation of the sales Science Water may or may not achieve.
VIVO Water has been marketed to the general public as an all purpose water product that is effective in hydrating the body. Science Water has obtained the right to promote VIVO Water under the brand name Science Water and an exclusive license to market VIVO Water, under the name Science Water, to the sports drink and the nutrition drink markets. Our president, Joe Wallace, has been a professional athlete and has contacts within the sports industry. We believe that as a result Mr. Wallace’s contracts and through obtaining the endorsements of prominent athletes, we can be successful in marketing Science Water to the sports drink and nutrition drink industries. We need proceeds from the sale of this offering to begin labeling the product under our name and to begin the promotion and marketing of this product.
The Water
Clustered Water as developed by Lorenzen is structured like the bio-water within our bodies. It is made up of six regular water molecules held together by shared hydrogen atoms. This ring, called a cluster, has a hexagonal shape and when it is found in association with other clusters, it forms a crystalline matrix which is helpful to various biological functions within the body. These small clusters are also able to move more freely through the pores in cellular membranes, carrying nutrients to the cells and expelling waste products from the cells with greater ease and speed than ordinary water.
Lorenzen, L.H., Process for preparing microclustered water, United States Patent 5,711,950 was issued in 1998. Lorenzen, L.H., Microclustered water, United States Patent 6,033,678 was issued in 2000. These patents can be printed from the uspto.gov website. The patents protect not only the concept of clustered water and its manufacturing, they also protect applications in food, pharmaceutical, agricultural, and other industries.
Competition
Science Water will compete with other traditional hydrating beverages such as water, milk, citrus and non-citrus fruit drinks and non-carbonated soft drinks. Competitors in the soft drink industry include other bottlers and distributors of nationally and regionally advertised and marketed products, as well as chain store brands and other private label water, soft drinks and beverages.
The water, soft drink and alternative beverage markets are highly competitive. Historically, soft drink bottlers were independently-owned entities that purchased concentrates from franchisors and competed against other bottlers in their territory for market share. Over the past decade, the bottling industry has witnessed significant horizontal and vertical consolidation. Continued consolidation is likely because consolidation typically increases cost efficiencies in purchasing, manufacturing and distribution.
The principal methods of competition among soft drink bottlers and distributors are brand recognition, price promotion, retail space management, service to the trade, new product introductions, packaging changes, availability and advertising. Competition among bottlers is also affected by promotional incentives and franchisor subsidies. During the past several years, net retail prices of soft drinks have, in general, marginally decreased due to increased price promotional allowances and competitive factors in the industry.
The Company's principal competitors are Coca-Cola Enterprises, Inc. ("CCE") and the company-owned bottling operations of the Pepsi-Cola Company ("COBO"), both of which are affiliated with their respective syrup franchisors. Both Coca-Cola and Pepsi-Cola have sports drink hydration type products as well as vitamin type water products and management believes these two company’s products account for over 60% of the water and soft drinks sold in the territories where Science Water will try to compete. Price competition between CCE and COBO has resulted in a market-wide erosion of per case margins in this industry. Both CCE and COBO and other bottlers have significantly greater financial resources than Science Water. We will face the challenge of branding Science Water sufficiently to compete to some extent with these bottling giants. Science Water believes that long-term profitability is will be tied to obtaining a market share in this market and, therefore, will seek to maintain a constant competitive pricing posture in the market. This requires efficient execution of marketing programs.
We believe that the endorsement of nationally recognized sports figures will allow us to compete with the water and soft drink market giants at a level that will allow us to become commercially viable.
Plan of Operations
At the present time we have no capital for the development of our business plan. We cannot commence to develop our business plan until we have a minimum of $100,000 to be used to obtain product and for marketing expense. To generate $100,000 in net offering proceeds, we will have to raise approximately $127,500. This will allow for payment of $27,500 in offering expenses and leave $100,000 to begin our marketing and to obtain product. Upon receipt of funding, we expect to immediately begin labeling product and start promotional media efforts.
We hope to jump start our marketing and business operations according to the following schedule:
Milestone | Time Frame |
Obtain initial funding sufficient to begin marketing | April 2009 |
Commence labeling product | June 2009 |
Commence marketing | July 2009 |
Obtain significant endorsement contract from major sports figure and obtain initial distribution contract from a retail chain. | September 2009 |
Obtain an additional endorsement contract from a major sports figure and two additional distribution contracts from retail chains. | January 2010 |
Once we obtain our initial sports figure endorsement contract and out initial distribution contract from a retail chain, we believe we will have the platform necessary to vigorously pursue additional contracts and marketing relationships. We believe that success in our business will stimulate additional success on an ongoing basis. If we are successful in obtaining more funding than the minimum amount necessary to commence labeling and marketing, our management will be able to allocate more of his time to our business operations and grow our business at a faster rate. In addition, we may also be able to justify the addition of other personnel that would allow even faster business expansion.
Government Regulation
The Company's business could be significantly affected if legislation requiring mandatory container deposits in the Company's distribution areas were to be adopted. The Company is not aware of any state legislative proposals which would require such deposits in its anticipated areas of operations.
Properties
We do not lease or own any real property. We maintain our corporate office at 18653 Ventura Blvd., Suite 640, Tarzana, California 91356. This office space is being provided free of charge by our president, Mr. Joe Wallace. This arrangement provides us with the office space necessary to take care of necessary paper work and telephone, fax and mailing facilities. As our business operations increase, it may be necessary for us to seek appropriate individual office space. The company will seek such space only if revenues make the extra expense manageable. Management believes suitable office space will be available when it is needed. Suitable office space will include 800 square feet of space with necessary telephone and Internet hook-ups.
Legal Proceedings
Science Water is not engaged in any legal proceedings.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
The Board of Science Water, Inc.:
We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of Science Water, Inc. as of August 31, 2008 and the related statements of operations ,stockholders equity and cash flows for the period then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform our audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the 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 audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that
are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit includes examining on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present
fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as at August 31, 2008 and the results of its’ operations and its’ stockholders equity and cash flows for the period then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in the notes to the financial statements, the Company has a negative equity and no real business operations. .These items among others, raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern.. These financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty

SCIENCE WATER, INC.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Note 1 – Organization and Significant Accounting Policies
Organization and Line of Business
Science Water, Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated in the state of California on October 11, 2007.
Basis of Presentation/Going Concern
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, which contemplate continuation of the Company as a going concern. The Company had no material assets and a negative retained deficit. These conditions raise substantial doubt as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. These financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. These financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts, or amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on the accrual basis of accounting in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.
Stock Based Compensation
SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation,” establishes and encourages the use of the fair value based method of accounting for stock-based compensation arrangements under which compensation cost is determined using the fair value of stock-based compensation determined as of the date of grant and is recognized over the periods in which the related services are rendered. For stock based compensation the Company recognizes an expense in accordance with SFAS No. 123 and values the equity securities based on the fair value of the security on the date of grant. For stock-based awards the value is based on the market value for the stock on the date of grant. Stock option awards are valued using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
For certain of the Company’s financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, other current assets, accounts payable, accrued interest and due to related party, the carrying amounts approximate fair value due to their short maturities.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
For purposes of the statements of cash flows, the Company defines cash equivalents as all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with a maturity of three months or less, plus all certificates of deposit.
Concentration of Credit Risk
Financial instruments, which potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk, consist of cash and cash equivalents and accounts receivables. The Company places its cash with high quality financial institutions and at times may exceed the FDIC $100,000 insurance limit. The Company extends credit based on an evaluation of the customer’s financial condition, generally without collateral. Exposure to losses on receivables is principally dependent on each customer’s financial condition. The Company monitors its exposure for credit losses and maintains allowances for anticipated losses, as required.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
SFAS No. 144 requires that long-lived assets to be disposed of by sale, including those of discontinued operations, be measured at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell, whether reported in continuing operations or in discontinued operations. SFAS No. 144 broadens the reporting of discontinued operations to include all components of an entity with operations that can be distinguished from the rest of the entity and that will be eliminated from the ongoing operations of the entity in a disposal transaction. SFAS No. 144 also establishes a “primary-asset” approach to determine the cash flow estimation period for a group of assets and liabilities that represents the unit of accounting for a long-lived asset to be held and used.
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with SFAS No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes.” Deferred taxes are provided on the liability method whereby deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences, and deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences. Temporary differences are the differences between the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax bases. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment.
Earnings (Loss) Per Share
The Company reports earnings (loss) per share in accordance with SFAS No. 128, “Earnings per Share.” Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing income (loss) available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares available. Diluted earnings (loss) per share is computed similar to basic earnings (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 common shares had been issued and if the additional common shares were dilutive. Diluted earnings (loss) per share has not been presented since the effect of the assumed conversion of options and warrants to purchase common shares would have an anti-dilutive effect.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141(R), Business Combinations (FAS 141(R)). This Statement provides greater consistency in the accounting and financial reporting of business combinations. It requires the acquiring entity in a business combination to recognize all assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the transaction, establishes the acquisition-date fair value as the measurement objective for all assets acquired and liabilities assumed, and requires the acquirer to disclose the nature and financial effect of the business combination. FAS 141(R) is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008. We will adopt FAS 141(R) no later than the first quarter of fiscal 2010 and are currently assessing the impact the adoption will have on our financial position and results of operations.
In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160. Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements (FAS 160). This Statement amends Accounting Research Bulletin No. 51, Consolidated Financial Statements, to establish accounting and reporting standards for the noncontrolling interest in a subsidiary and for the deconsolidation of a subsidiary. FAS 160 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008. We will adopt FAS 160 no later than the first quarter of fiscal 2010 and are currently assessing the impact the adoption will have on our financial position and results of operations.
In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities, which permits entities to choose to measure at fair value eligible financial instruments and certain other items that are not currently required to be measured at fair value. The standard requires that unrealized gains and losses on items for which the fair value option has been elected be reported in earnings at each subsequent reporting date. SFAS No. 159 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. We will adopt SFAS No. 159 no later than the first quarter of fiscal 2009. We are currently assessing the impact the adoption of SFAS No. 159 will have on our financial position and results of operations.
In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 158, Employers’ Accounting for Defined Benefit Pension and Other Postretirement Plans, an amendment of FASB Statements No. 87, 88, 106, and 132(R). SFAS No. 158 requires company plan sponsors to display the net over- or under-funded position of a defined benefit postretirement plan as an asset or liability, with any unrecognized prior service costs, transition obligations or actuarial gains/losses reported as a component of other comprehensive income in shareholders’ equity. SFAS No. 158 is effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2006. We adopted the recognition provisions of SFAS No. 158 as of the end of fiscal 2007. The adoption of SFAS No. 158 did not have an effect on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.
In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements. SFAS No. 157 establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles, clarifies the definition of fair value and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS No. 157 does not require any new fair value measurements. However, the application of SFAS No. 157 may change current practice for some entities. SFAS No. 157 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, and interim periods within those fiscal years. We will adopt SFAS No. 157 in the first quarter of fiscal 2009. We are currently assessing the impact that the adoption of SFAS No. 157 will have on our financial position and results of operations.
In July 2006, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes — an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109 (FIN 48). This interpretation clarifies the application of SFAS No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes, by defining a criterion that an individual tax position must meet for any part of the benefit of that position to be recognized in an enterprise’s financial statements and also provides guidance on measurement, derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition. FIN 48 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006, but earlier adoption is permitted. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of the application of the Interpretation to its financial statements
Note 2– Income taxes
Income taxes are accounted for in accordance with SFAS 109, Accounting for Income Taxes, using the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the year in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.
The Company has a net loss carryforward equal to approximately $20,253. The deferred tax asset related to this carryforward has been reserved in full due to the fact that it is more likely than not that the Company will realize this asset.
INFORMATION NOT REQUIRED IN PROSPECTUS
Item 24. Indemnification of Directors and Officers
Our officers and directors are indemnified as provided by the California business laws (“CBL”) and our bylaws.
Under the CBL, director immunity from liability to a company or its shareholders for monetary liabilities applies automatically unless it is specifically limited by a company's Articles of Incorporation. This is not the case with our Articles of Incorporation. Excepted from that immunity are: (a) a willful failure to deal fairly with the company or its shareholders in connection with a matter in which the director has a material conflict of interest; (b) a violation of criminal law unless the director had reasonable cause to believe that his or her conduct was lawful or no reasonable cause to believe that his or her conduct was unlawful; (c) a transaction from which the director derived an improper personal profit; and (d) willful misconduct.
Our bylaws provide that we will indemnify our directors and officers to the fullest extent not prohibited by Nevada law; provided, however, that we may modify the extent of such indemnification by individual contracts with our directors and officers; and, provided, further, that we shall not be required to indemnify any director or officer in connection with any proceeding, or part thereof, initiated by such person unless such indemnification: (a) is expressly required to be made by law, (b) the proceeding was authorized by our Board of Directors, (c) is provided by us, in our sole discretion, pursuant to the powers vested us under Nevada law or (d) is required to be made pursuant to the bylaws.
Our bylaws provide that we will advance to any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, by reason of the fact that he is or was a director or officer, of our company, or is or was serving at the request of our company as a director or executive officer of another company, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, prior to the final disposition of the proceeding, promptly following request therefor, all expenses incurred by any director or officer in connection with such proceeding upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of such person to repay said amounts if it should be determined ultimately that such person is not entitled to be indemnified under our bylaws or otherwise.
Our bylaws provide that no advance shall be made by us to an officer of our company in any action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, if a determination is reasonably and promptly made (a) by the Board of Directors by a majority vote of a quorum consisting of directors who were not parties to the proceeding, or (b) if such quorum is not obtainable, or, even if obtainable, a quorum of disinterested directors so directs, by independent legal counsel in a written opinion, that the facts known to the decision-making party at the time such determination is made demonstrate clearly and convincingly that such person acted in bad faith or in a manner that such person did not believe to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Science Water. An exception to this prohibition against advances applies when the officer is or was a director of our company.

The valuation of the consideration received by the Company was the par value of the stock, $0.001 per share, for total consideration of $30,100.
