We are also dedicated to the development, manufacturing and commercialization of gene therapy products.

Benda owns all of the capital stock of Ever Leader Holdings Limited, a holding company incorporated under the laws of Hong Kong SAR on October 29, 2005. Ever Leader owns 95% of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Hubei Tongji Benda Ebei Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd.

(“SiBiono”), a company incorporated under the laws of the PRC.

We distribute our high value, branded medicines, through agents who sell them to hospitals that administer them to patients. We sell generics to medical wholesalers for resale to hospitals. The company sells its Over the Counter (“OTC”) medicines to wholesalers specializing in selling to retail chain drug stores. Our “Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients” (“APIs”) are typically sold to large drug manufacturers under long-term supply contracts. The bulk chemicals are purchased by other Chinese drug companies.

History and Recent Developments

We were organized as a Minnesota corporation on February 17, 1982. The technology on which our original products were based, including Spread Spectrum Technology, permit data and telemetry to be transmitted simultaneously over telephone wire without interfering with normal voice service. Our products were known as data/voice multiplexing (“DVM”) equipment and were aimed at operating telephone companies in the telecommunications market. Our lack of financial resources caused us to pursue a plan of dissolution as approved by our Board of Directors and approved by our shareholders on November 30, 1993.

During fiscal 1994, we began implementing a plan of voluntary dissolution pursuant to Minnesota law that was approved by our shareholders at a Special Shareholders’ Meeting held on November 30, 1993. Under our plan of dissolution, most of our assets were sold during 1994 with some payments deferred into 1995 and beyond. The recovery period ran through 1997. During fiscal 1995, most of the tangible asset sales were collected and only technology licenses remained to be collected. During fiscal 1996, we continued to collect license fees and payments on one equipment lease. The results of the plan of dissolution were successful and all liabilities and expenses were either paid or were covered in reserves.

On November 17, 2000, a Special Meeting of the shareholders of the Company was held at which time the plan of dissolution was revoked. Pursuant to the proposal for revocation, a liquidating dividend of approximately $212,000 was paid pro-rata to our shareholders in August 2001. We have been inactive since 1994.

On October 7, 2005, we and Applied Spectrum Technologies, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Applied - Delaware”) entered into a certain Agreement and Plan of Merger (“Plan of Merger”). Pursuant to the Plan of Merger, subject to stockholder approval, we were to merge with and into Applied - Delaware for the purposes of the redomestication from the State of Minnesota to the State of Delaware (the “Merger”). On October 24, 2005, we filed a Definitive Proxy Statement pursuant to Section 14(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, with the Securities and Exchange Commission for the purpose of voting on the Merger.

On November 14, 2005, the holders of a majority of our outstanding shares of common stock approved the Merger. The Merger was completed on November 17, 2005, and the Articles of Merger were filed with the States of Minnesota and Delaware on November 17, 2005.

On December 14, 2005, Norwood Venture Corp. (“Norwood”), a former shareholder of the Company and KI Equity Partners III, LLC (“KI Equity”) entered into a certain securities purchase agreement, as amended, under which KI Equity agreed to purchase and Norwood agreed to sell an aggregate of 2,281,302 shares of common stock of the Company, representing approximately 77.2% of the Company’s outstanding shares of common stock, to KI Equity at a price of $175,000. The closing of the transactions under the Purchase Agreement occurred on December 29, 2005.

Kevin R. Keating, our former President and sole officer and director who resigned on November 15, 2006, is the father of Timothy J. Keating, the majority member of Keating Investments, LLC. Keating Investments, LLC is the managing member of KI Equity Partners III, LLC, which is the party acquiring the controlling interest in us pursuant to the Purchase Agreement. Keating Investments, LLC is also the managing member and 90% owner of Keating Securities, LLC, a registered broker-dealer. Kevin R. Keating is not affiliated with and has no equity interest in Keating Investments, LLC, KI Equity Partners III, LLC or Keating Securities, LLC and disclaims any beneficial interest in the shares of Applied Spectrum’s common stock to be acquired by KI Equity Partners III, LLC.

We did not become engaged in the pharmaceutical business until November of 2006. Before closing our recent share exchange transaction in November 2006, we were a shell company with nominal assets and operations, whose sole business was to identify, evaluate and investigate various companies with the intent that, if such investigation warrants, a business combination be negotiated and completed pursuant to which we (formerly known as Applied Spectrum Technologies, Inc.) would acquire a target company with an operating business with the intent of continuing the acquired company's business as a publicly held entity. We entered in an Exchange Agreement dated September 7, 2006 (the “Exchange Agreement”) with KI Equity Partners II, LLC (“KI Equity”), Ever Leader, a company incorporated under the laws of Hong Kong, and the owners of 100% of the capital shares of Ever Leader. The closing of the Exchange Agreement occurred on November 15, 2006. At the closing of the Exchange Agreement, we acquired all of Ever Leader's capital shares (the “Ever Leader Shares”) from the Ever Leader Shareholders, and the Ever Leader Shareholders transferred and contributed all of their Ever Leader Shares to us. In exchange, we issued 64,942,360 shares of our Common Stock to the Ever Leader Shareholders.

As a result of the closing of the Exchange Agreement, Ever Leader became our wholly owned subsidiary and we adopted Ever Leader’s main operational business. The Exchange transaction, for accounting and financial reporting purposes, is deemed to be a reverse acquisition, where we (the legal acquirer) are considered the accounting acquiree and Ever Leader (the legal acquiree) is considered the accounting acquirer, and thus the historical financial statements of Ever Leader are the financial statements of Benda.

Recent Financing

The closing of the Exchange Agreement described above was contingent on a minimum of $10,000,000 (or such lesser amount as mutually agreed to by Ever Leader and the placement agent) being subscribed for, and funded into escrow, by certain accredited and institutional investors ("Investors") in a private placement offering for the purchase of Units, each Unit consisting of 54,087 shares of our Common Stock ("Common Stock") and 54,087 common stock purchase warrants promptly after the closing of the Exchange transaction under terms and conditions approved by our board of directors immediately following the Exchange (the “Financing”). The closing of the Financing was contingent on the closing of the Exchange transaction, and the Exchange transaction was contingent on the closing of the Financing. On November 15, 2006, we completed this private placement offering. We received gross proceeds of approximately $12 million in connection with the Financing from the Investors. Pursuant to Subscription Agreements entered into with these Investors, we sold 480 Units for a total of 25,961,760 shares of its Common Stock and warrants to purchase an additional 25,961,760 shares of our common stock to the Investors. The price per Unit in the Financing was $25,000.

Keating Securities, LLC (“Placement Agent”), an affiliate of Keating Investments, LLC, acted as placement agent in connection with the Financing. For their services, the Placement Agents received a commission equal to 7.5% of the gross proceeds from the offering and a non-accountable expense allowance equal to 1.5% of the gross proceeds. In addition, the Placement Agents received, for nominal consideration, warrants to purchase 10% of the number of shares of common stock sold in connection with the Financing, which in the aggregate totaled 2,596,176 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $0.555 per share. The warrants are fully vested and have a term of five years. The Placement Agent warrants will have registration rights similar to the registration rights afforded to the holders of Common Stock and Warrants subscribed for in the Financing. We also paid for the out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Placement Agent and all purchasers in the amount of $100,000.

In order to finance the acquisition of a majority of the shares of Shenzhen SiBiono GeneTech Co., Ltd. (“SiBiono”), on April 5, 2007, we entered into an Investment Agreement (“April Financing”) with certain accredited and institutional investors (“Investors”) who had also participated in the subscription for $12,000,000 of our common stock pursuant to certain Securities Purchase Agreements dated November 15, 2006 (“November Financing”). Pursuant to the Investment Agreement, the Investors purchased a total of 252 Units for $7,560,000 with each Unit consisting of (i) a convertible promissory note in the principal amount of Thirty Thousand Dollars ($30,000) which shall be convertible into 54,087 shares of the Company's common stock, par value $0.001 per share, and (ii) a warrant to acquire 54,087 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $0.555 per share. The Notes bear an interest rate of four percent per annum until the Buyer elects to exercise the right to convert, and matured on March 28, 2009. The Notes have reached the Maturity Date. We have not repaid the principal amounts of the Notes as of the date of this annual report.

In March 2007 the Company and the Investors entered into a Modification Agreement amending the November Financing Documents to allow for certain issuances of the Company's securities, including additional purchases of the Company's equity securities pursuant to the Investment Agreement; shares issuances required under the Equity Transfer Agreements; and issuances of options pursuant to an approved Qualified Employment Stock Option Plan. All of the investors in the November Financing had the right to participate in the purchase of additional units under the Investment Agreement and all of such investors either participated in the Investment Agreement or have waived their right to participate in such. In addition, those investors that did not participate in the Investment Agreement also waived their right to object to the changes to the Warrants, Registration Rights Agreement and Make Good Agreement which were set forth in the Modification Agreement.

On or prior to forty five (45) days from the Closing Date of the Investment Agreement, we were required to deliver to the Buyers our financial statements for the years ending December 31, 2005 and December 31, 2006, audited by Kempisty & Company Certified Public Accountants, P.C., prepared in accordance with GAAP, during each year involved and fairly presenting in all material respects our financial position as of the dates thereof and the results of our operations and cash flows for each such year then ended. Such financial statements for the years ending December 31, 2005 and December 31, 2006 were filed with our Form 10KSB for the year ending December 31, 2006 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 4, 2007. In addition, on or prior to seventy five (75) days from the Closing Date, we are also required to deliver to the Buyers audited financial statements for SiBiono for the required time periods for the Form 8-K filing required by the Securities and Exchange Commission. Such financial statements were filed with our Amendment No. 1 to Form 8K filed June 15, 2007.

Shenzhen SiBiono GeneTech Co., Ltd.

On April 5, 2007, Hubei Tongji Benda Ebei Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd., a Sino-Foreign Equity Joint Venture company incorporated under the laws of the PRC (“Benda Ebei”), of which Ever Leader Holdings Limited, a company incorporated under the laws of Hong Kong SAR ("Ever Leader") and a wholly owned subsidiary of Benda Pharmaceutical, Inc. (the “Company”), owns 95% of the outstanding common stock, has entered into Equity Transfer Agreements with certain shareholders of Shenzhen SiBiono Gene Technology Co., Ltd. (“SiBiono”), a corporation established and validly existing under the law of the PRC, to purchase a total of approximately 57.57% of the shares of SiBiono's common stock for total consideration of RMB60,000,000 due and payable on or before April 30, 2007.

In connection with the Equity Transfer Agreements, we entered into a Financial Consultancy Agreement with Super Pioneer International Limited (“Super Pioneer”) for financial consultancy services rendered by Super Pioneer. Pursuant to the Financial Consultancy Agreement, we agreed to issue 2,100,000 shares of our common stock to Super Pioneer within three months from the date of the agreement. Super Pioneer agreed to lock up the shares for a period of twelve months from the date of the issuance of the shares (the “Lock-up Period”). Within three months from the Lock-up Period, in the event that the public trading price of our shares did not reach $3.6 per share and we are not listed in the capital market of NASDAQ or AMEX, Super Pioneer shall have the option to require us to redeem 1,960,000 shares of the stock owned by Super Pioneer at a price of $3.6 per share. Such option shall expire within one month from the last date of the three month period.

On June 11, 2007, Benda Ebei entered into Equity Transfer Agreements with Yaojin Wang and Huimin Zhang, shareholders of SiBiono, for the purchase of an additional 2.56% of the shares of SiBiono's common stock for total consideration of RMB2,560,000 due and payable on or before June 30, 2007. Accordingly, Benda Ebei holds a total of 60.13% of the shares of SiBiono's common stock.

In connection with the Equity Transfer Agreements, we entered into Technical Consultancy Agreements with Yaojin Wang and Huimin Zhang for technical consultancy services rendered by Yaojin Wang and Huimin Zhang. Pursuant to the Technical Consultancy Agreements, we agreed to issue 33,585 shares of our common stock to Yaojin Wang and 55,975 shares of our common stock to Huimin Zhang within three months from the date of the agreement. Yaojin Wang and Huimin Zhang agreed to lock up their shares for a period of twelve months from the date of the issuance of the shares (the “Lock-up Period”). Within three months from the Lock-up Period, in the event that the public trading price of our shares did not reach $3.6 per share and we are not listed in the capital market of NASDAQ or AMEX, Yaojin Wang and Huimin Zhang shall have the option to require us to redeem the shares of the stock owned by Yaojin Wang and Huimin Zhang at a price of $3.6 per share. Such option shall expire within one month from the last date of the three month period. According to the signed agreements, the redemption would have been required to be performed in September 2008. However, we have obtained an oral consent from Super Pioneer, Wang and Zhang that the redemption shall be deferred to the end of 2009.

Business

Our operations are headquartered in Wuhan, Hubei Province, China. We are a mid-sized Chinese pharmaceutical company that identifies, discovers, develops and manufactures both conventional medications, Traditional Chinese Medicines (“TCMs”) for the treatment of some of the largest common ailments and diseases (e.g., common cold, diabetes, cancer), gene therapy product for the treatment of cancer and Herbal TCM Oral Liquid for the treatment of anti-respiratory tract infections.

We currently have five core operating companies:

Yidu Benda develops, manufactures and sells bulk chemicals (or pharmaceutical intermediated), which are the raw materials used to make “Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients” (“APIs”).

Jiangling Benda develops, manufactures and sells APIs, which are one of the two components of any capsules, tablets and fluids that are pharmaceutically active. An API is the substance in a drug that produces the desired medicinal effect. The “excipient” is the inert material that holds the API (such as gelatin or water).

	·	Benda Ebei develops, manufactures and sells (a) conventional finished medicines, which are non-patented, branded, proprietary small volume injection solutions (vials) used for a variety of treatments including hepatitis; and (b) Traditional Chinese Medicines (“TCMs”), which are herb-based and natural medicines used in TCM therapies (via our newly formed subsidiary Beijing Shusai). Some of the medicines we produce are of our own origination and protected from competition by certificates issued by China’s State Food and Drug Administration (“SFDA”). There are no differences between the regulatory processes for conventional medicines and Traditional Chinese Medicines. Traditional Chinese Medicines are ready-make medicines, which are produced according certain curing principles and prescriptions and can be used immediately, such as pills, medicinal granules and capsules.

	·	BJ Shusai develops, manufactures and sell herbal TCM oral liquid for the treatment of anti-respiration tract infections. However due to the fact that the SFDA experienced an overhaul in its policies and regulatory systems in an effort to fight against corruption in Chinese pharmaceutical industry, thus BJ Shusai’s operation has been adversely affected by this recent policy changes which prohibits some state-owned hospitals from forming alliances with private companies. The management could not estimate that such situation could be resolved in the coming future.

SiBiono develops, manufactures and sells gene therapy products. As a pioneer in gene therapy in China, SiBiono's mission is to develop innovative gene therapy products for the improvement of human health and life quality. The Company has developed two core technology platforms: Viral Vector Gene Delivery System and Non-Viral Vector Gene Delivery System focusing on development of gene therapy product for cancer and cardiovascular diseases. SiBiono’s flagship product, Gendicine is the commercialized gene therapy for the treatment of cancer.

The Chinese government agency, SFDA, provides approval for drugs released into the market in China. Unlike the Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) in the United States, however, the SFDA provides intellectual property and competitive protection to certain classes of approved drugs.

Each core Benda operating company has its own manufacturing facility located near Wuhan, in Hubei Province and Shenzhen, in Guangdong Province. Good Manufacturing Practices (“GMP”) certification was first issued to Benda Ebei on November 11, 2003 and renew on December 3, 2008 for the production of injection vials. On November 26, 2007, Benda Ebei received a GMP certificate for the production of tablets. Benda Ebei was designated a High and New Technology Enterprise by the Science and Technology Bureau of Hubei Province on July 6, 2005 for a period of two years. This designation represents formal recognition by the provincial government that a company has developed or acquired new technology of significance, and triggers a number of government support and incentive policies, including availability of land for expansion, research grants and discounts on bank loan interest. The designation expired on July 6, 2007; however, we have passed the re-examination and the new designation was received on August 2007. Although we have not received any support from the government to date, such a designation may be useful in obtaining incentives in the future.

Our Yidu Benda facility produces bulk chemical intermediates for raw material medicine and does not require GMP certification. Yidu Benda was temporarily closed mid January to upgrade its waste water treatment system to comply with new environmental standards enforced by PRC local government. Yidu Benda has completed its upgrading of the waste water system and passed the government’s verification and testing of equipments in October 2007. It is now permitted for the testing on actual production process. Once the actual products are produced, then the environmental government bodies will re-test the production results. The management could not estimate the exact timing for obtaining the final approval on the actual production process. Furthermore, the management is searching for new products to be produced in Yidu Benda which with higher profit margin.

Our Jiangling Benda facility was closed for renovation in July 2004 to comply with GMP standards. The Jiangling Benda plant reopened on August 10, 2007 and has been producing Ribose, the only product that does not require GMP approval. Jiangling Benda also plans to produce three other types of active pharmaceutical ingredients and they are Ribavirin, Asarin and Levofloxacin which need to have GMP Certificate. On April 9, 2008, Jiangling Benda received the approved GMP Certificate which authorizing the production of Ribavrin. The other two products, Asarin and Levolfozacin, are still under the stage of GMP certificate approving process. The management could not estimate the exact timing for obtaining those certificates.

On October 16, 2003, SiBiono successfully obtained a New Drug License from the State Food & Drug Administration of China (SFDA), and then, in April 4, 2004, SiBiono obtained “Manufacture Certificate” and “Certificate of GMP for Pharmaceutical Product”, so far being fully qualified for the market launch of Recombinant Human Ad-p53 Injection, trademarked as Gendicine ® in China. Gendicine ® is the commercialized gene therapy product approved in the PRC government agency. On May 19, 2008, SiBiono received an official notice from the PRC State of SFDA in which it mentioned that during the random inspection performed by the PRC State of SFDA on April 8 to April 10, 2008, the PRC State of SFDA discovered there were several production procedures that did not meet the requirement stated in GMP, thus it required SiBiono to perform necessary improvements in order to fulfill the GMP requirements and the PRC State of SFDA collected back the distributed GMP certificate until the necessary improvements being carried out and passed the examination that conducted by SFDA. On June 10, 2008, SiBiono received another official notice from Guangdong Province SFDA and they demanded the same requirements as stated in the official notice which issued by the PRC State of SFDA dated on May 19, 2008. On November 24, 2008, SiBiono received another official notice from Guangdong Province SFDA which mentioned that after the examination conducted by Shenzhen City SFDA, the Guangdong Province SFDA consent SiBiono to carry out production on a trial basis. It further required SiBiono strictly to follow the requirements of GMP to organize trail production and follow the procedures to apply for GMP Certificate verification. The management could not estimate the exact timing for obtaining the final approval on the GMP Certificate.

Good Manufacturing Practices (“GMP”) is an internationally-recognized standard for pharmaceutical plant design and construction. GMP has been defined as “that part of quality assurance which ensures that products are consistently produced and controlled to the quality standards appropriate for their intended use and as required by the marketing authorization” (World Health Organization). GMP covers all aspects of the manufacturing process: defined manufacturing process; validated critical manufacturing steps; suitable premises, storage, transport; qualified and trained production and quality control personnel; adequate laboratory facilities; approved written procedures and instructions; records to show all steps of defined procedures taken; full traceability of a product through batch processing records and distribution records; and systems for recall and investigation of complaints. The validity of the GMP approval lasts for five years upon the issuing date and when the expiration date is approaching, the manufacturing company needs to make an application for the renewal.

We distribute our high value, branded medicines, through agents who sell them to hospitals that administer them to patients. We sell generics to medical wholesalers for resale to hospitals. We sell our Over the Counter (“OTC”) medicines to wholesalers specializing in selling to retail chain drug stores. Our APIs are typically sold to large drug manufacturers under long-term supply contracts. Our bulk chemicals are purchased by other Chinese drug companies.

History and Corporate Organization

Ever Leader was incorporated in Hong Kong on October 29, 2005 for the purpose of functioning as an off-shore holding company to obtain ownership interests in various entities (collectively “Benda”) that were previously owned, either directly or indirectly, by Mr. Yiqing Wan (“Wan”) and his wife, Ms. Wei Xu (“Xu”).

The following paragraphs summarize the original ownership structure of various entities owned by Wan and Xu and the subsequent reorganization and transfer of ownership interests in these entities, either directly or indirectly, to Ever Leader.

Ownership Structure Prior to Reorganization

Hubei Benda Science and Technology Development Co., Ltd. (“Benda Science”) was incorporated in the Province of Hubei, PRC in October of 2002, primarily functioning as a holding company with ownership interests in various entities operated by Wan and Xu. Wan and Xu are the sole owners of Benda Science, with ownership interests of 10% and 90%, respectively.

Benda Ebei was incorporated in the Province of Hubei, PRC in April of 2001. Benda Ebei has registered capital of $2,419,404 which is fully paid up. Prior to the reorganization of Benda as further described in the paragraphs below, Benda Science, Wan, and Xu were the sole owners of Benda Ebei, with ownership interests of 60%, 20%, and 20%, respectively. Benda Ebei develops, manufactures, and sells small volume injection solutions (vials) and other conventional medicines.

Jiangling Benda was incorporated in the Province of Hubei, PRC in October of 2001. Jiangling Benda has registered capital of $967,738 which is fully paid. Prior to the reorganization of Benda, Benda Science and Wan were the sole owners of Jiangling Benda, with ownership interests of 90% and 10%, respectively. Jiangling Benda develops, manufactures and sells active pharmaceutical ingredients (“APIs”). Jiangling Benda’s primary production facility was closed for upgrades and renovations in July 2004 in order to secure a GMP certification from the Chinese SFDA. This facility is expected to reopen and resume production in August of 2007.

Yidu Benda was incorporated in the Province of Hubei, PRC in March of 2002. Yidu Benda has registered capital of $4,233,854 which is fully paid. Prior to the reorganization of Benda, Benda Science and Wan were the sole owners of Yidu Benda, with ownership interests of 90% and 10%, respectively. Yidu Benda develops, manufactures and sells bulk chemicals (or pharmaceutical intermediates) for use in the production of APIs. The organization and ownership structure of Benda prior to reorganization is as follows:

Reorganization and Revised Ownership Structure

As previously stated in the paragraphs above, Ever Leader was incorporated in Hong Kong on October 29, 2005 for the purpose of functioning as an off-shore holding company to obtain ownership interests in various Benda entities that were previously owned, either directly or indirectly, by Wan and Xu. Ms. Mo Mo Hon (“Hon”), a Hong Kong SAR resident, was the sole registered shareholder of Ever Leader, holding the single issued and outstanding share of Ever Leader in trust for Xu.

Pursuant to three separate Equity Transfer Agreements entered into in November of 2005 among Ever Leader, Benda Science, Xu, and Wan, Ever Leader obtained a 95% ownership interest in Benda Ebei in exchange for a commitment to pay $2,298,434 in aggregate consideration to Benda Science, Wan, and Xu. The $2,298,434 acquisition price represented 95% of the $2,419,404 of registered capital of Benda Ebei, but was not representative of the fair value of the assets acquired or liabilities assumed. Specifically, as transfers of ownership interests in PRC entities to offshore holding companies for zero or nominal consideration is prohibited by the Chinese Government (regardless of whether these PRC entities and offshore holding companies are directly or indirectly owned and controlled by the same individual or individuals), an amount equal to 95% of the value of the registered capital of Benda Ebei was established for purposes of the transfer of the 95% ownership interest in Benda Ebei (directly and indirectly 100% owned and controlled by Wan and Xu) to Ever Leader (beneficially 100% owned and controlled by Xu). As a result of each of these entities being 100% directly and indirectly controlled by Wan and Xu, this transaction has been accounted for as a combination of entities under common control (see additional discussion of accounting treatment in the paragraphs that follow), with Ever Leader’s commitment to pay $2,298,434 in aggregate consideration to Benda Science, Wan and Xu being reflected as a current liability at both December 31,2005 and 2004, with corresponding reductions to paid-in capital.

Pursuant to an Equity Transfer Agreement entered into on December 3, 2005 among Benda Ebei, Benda Science, and Wan, Benda Science transferred and assigned its 90% ownership interest in Jiangling Benda to Benda Ebei and Wan transferred and assigned a 5% ownership interest in Jiangling Benda to Benda Ebei (for zero consideration as Benda Ebei and Jiangling Benda were both directly and indirectly 100% owned and controlled by Wan and Xu).

Pursuant to a second Equity Transfer Agreement entered into on December 4, 2005 among Benda Ebei, Benda Science, and Wan, Benda Science transferred and assigned its 90% ownership interest in Yidu Benda to Benda Ebei and Wan transferred and assigned a 5% ownership interest in Yidu Benda to Benda Ebei (for zero consideration as Benda Ebei and Yidu Benda were both directly and indirectly 100% owned and controlled by Wan and Xu).

The organization and ownership structure of the Company subsequent to the consummation of the reorganization as summarized in the paragraphs above is as follows:

In July of 2006, Benda Ebei invested approximately $112,500 for a 75% ownership interest in Beijing Shusai, with the remaining 25% owned by an unrelated PRC individual. Beijing Shusai, a PRC limited liability company, was incorporated on June 15, 2006 and commenced primary operations in July 2006. Benda Ebei is setting up self-operated and franchised Pharyngitis Clinics in leading hospitals throughout major cities in China. It is currently operating two clinics for the Pharyngitis Killer therapy in Beijing, PRC.

On September 5, 2006, Ever Leader increased its number of authorized shares of common stock from 10,000 to 1,000,000 and effected a 100 to 1 stock split, resulting in Hon (the original sole registered shareholder of Ever Leader holding one share in trust for Xu) receiving 99 additional shares in the Company.

On September 5, 2006, Ever Leader transferred and assigned 711,202 shares of common stock to Xia Pharmaceutical, Inc. (“XIA”), an offshore holding company incorporated in the British Virgin Islands (“BVI”) that is 100% owned and controlled by Wan and Xu.

On September 5, 2006, Ever Leader issued 288,698 shares of common stock to 19 entities (some of whom are considered related parties) at par value. Additionally, Hon transferred and assigned her ownership interest in her 100 shares of Ever Leader to one of these entities.

The organization and ownership structure of the Company subsequent to the consummation of the reorganization as summarized in the paragraphs above is as follows:

The organizational chart after the acquisition of SiBiono would be stated as follows:

PRINCIPAL PRODUCTS

In 2008, our revenues were principally derived from sales of products listed in Figure 1. We have SFDA approval for all medicines and active pharmaceutical ingredients that we market. Sales of herbal TCM’s and bulk chemicals do not require SFDA approval. Our medicines have undergone pharmacological experiments in order to research the medicines’ effect and mechanism on organisms. On the other side, the experiments also research the organisms’ effect on the medicine. It includes pharmacodynamics and pharmacokinetics. Pharmacological experiments and clinical trials have similarities. Clinical trials are part of pharmacological experiments. However, pharmacological experiments mainly use animals as research subjects, while clinical trials generally utilize patients as research subjects. Pharmacological experiments are carried out by regulations of non-clinical medicine research and quality control issued by SFDA.

(1)

Jiangling Benda facility was closed for renovation in July 2004 to comply with GMP standards. The Jiangling Benda plant reopened on August 10, 2007 and has been producing Ribose, the only product that does not require GMP approval. Jiangling Benda also plans to produce three other types of active pharmaceutical ingredients and they are Ribavirin, Asarin and Levofloxacin which need to have GMP Certificate. On April 9, 2008, Jiangling Benda received the approved GMP Certificate which authorizes the production of Ribavrin. The other two products, Asarin and Levolfozacin, are still undergoing the GMP certificate approving process. The management cannot estimate the exact timing for obtaining those certificates.

SFDA Compared to the FDA

The SFDA approval process is similar to the FDA approval process. They both require three phases of clinical trials.

Phase I: Test the safety of drugs. 20-80 cases are required by FDA, while 20-30 cases are required by SFDA.

Phase II: Test the efficacy of drugs. Several hundred cases are required by FDA, while 100 cases are required by SFDA.

Phase III: Expand the sample group and further test the safety and effectiveness of drugs. Several hundreds, even thousands are required by FDA, while 300 hundred cases are required by SFDA.

Before a drug can be sold in China, the drug needs to undergo the above three phases, namely pre-clinical trial, clinical trial and finally, GMP approval. The approval of a drug by SFDA does not guarantee the approval by FDA. However, drugs approved by SFDA can be exempted from certain steps in US clinical trials before applying for FDA.

Benda Ebei Products

Of our branded medicines, the Shusai-A Nefopam Hydrochloride solution, sold in injection vials, is particularly noteworthy. According to a pharmacological experiment, Nefopam Hydrochloride has an analgesic effect 10.4 times greater than that of aspirin. Furthermore, it is not addictive and causes no known side effects.

Pharmacological experiments research the medicines’ effect and mechanism on organisms. On the other side, the experiments also research the organisms’ effect on the medicine. It includes pharmacodynamics and pharmacokinetics. Pharmacological experiments and clinical trials have similarities. Clinical trials are part of pharmacological experiments. However, pharmacological experiments mainly use animals as research subjects, while clinical trials generally utilize patients as research subjects. Pharmacological experiments are carried out by regulations of non-clinical medicine research and quality control issued by SFDA.

The chemical name of this product is Nefopam hydrochloride. It mainly contains: 5-Methyl-1-Phenyl-3,4,5,6-Tetrahydrocannabinol-1H-2,5-benzoxazocine, fenazoxine hydrochloride. It is a new type of Non-narcotic analgesics which has the function of low-grade Antipyretic and muscle relaxants. Its chemical structure belongs to O-methyl benzene ring of diphenhydramine, so it does not have the attribute of Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, nor Opioid receptor agonist. It is effective for middle-grade and heavy-grade pain. Intramuscular injecting 20mg of Nefopam hydrochloride equals to intramuscular injecting 12mg morphine. It has light effectiveness on respiration inhibition. It has no inhibition on circulatory system. It has no tolerance or dependence. It can be rapidly oral absorbed, Tmax 1-3 hours, and it has obvious effect while first pass. T1/2 4-8 hours, the binding rate of plasma protein is 71%-76%. It is metabolized by liver to lose its pharmacological activities. Most of it will be excreted through kidney. The prototype drug will be less than 5% and only a little will be excreted along with excretion. It is used for pain-killing after operation, cancer pain, and acute pain. It is also used for visceral smooth muscle cramps such as acute gastritis, in-biliary ascariasis, ureterolithiasis.

The clinical trials were conducted in 1993, instructed by Doctor Guozhong, Peng. Ebei plant paid for all clinical trial expenses. It passed the clinical trials in 6 clinical institutes including the provincial hospital of Hebei, the second and the forth hospital attached Hebei School of Medicine, Bethune international peace hospital and etc. The efficacy rate is around 80% for all 374 cases examined. There is no follow up results.

Generics are common, low-cost, medicines used by doctors in hospitals nationwide. Our generics have been marketed for more than 10 years and are generally used by low-income patients in rural and country districts. The profit margins for our generics, which constitute about 3 per cent of Benda Ebei’s current sales volume, are lower than those of our branded products. However, our generic products are an effective means for promoting our corporate name, image and brands nationwide.

Jiangling Benda Products

Jiangling Benda produces and plans to produce four types of active pharmaceutical ingredients and they are Ribavirin, Asarin, Levofloxacin and Ribose whereas the production of Ribose does not require the GMP certificate, but the production of the other three products do require the GMP certificate.

Ribavirin has been used to produce antivirus medicine to treat SARS and SARS-like illnesses. Ribavirin is also used to treat severe virus pneumonia in infants and young children and a viral liver infection known as hepatitis C. It can be used in patients who have hepatitis C or human immunodeficiency virus (“HIV”) infection. Alliance Pharm, Inc. is advising us on modifications to our production processes in our effort to achieve U.S. FDA certification. Currently, there is only one other pharmaceutical company in PRC that has received U.S. FDA certification to produce Ribavirin API. On April 9, 2008, Jiangling Benda received the approved GMP Certificate from the SFDA which authorizing the production of Ribavrin.

Asarin is used to treat infections of the upper respiratory system. Our Asarin API is synthesized chemically rather than being extracted from natural raw materials, making it a cost effective and price competitive product. Benda’s Asarin received SFDA approval as a new API on December 27, 2005. We plan to extend our reach further down the value chain and manufacture consumer-ready Asarin medicines, in injection, vial and pill form, from our Asarin API. We have already filed for SFDA approval for these three types of finished Asarin products.

·	Levofloxacin Mesylate is a synthetic broad spectrum antibacterial agent for oral and intravenous administration. Benda’s Levofloxacin received SFDA approval as new drug ingredient on March 5, 2006.

·	Ribose is a kind of active pharmaceutical ingredient and which is used to manufacture antibiotic drug and which does not the approval from SFDA.

Yidu Benda Product

Yidu plans to produce one type of bulk chemicals:

·	Triazol carboxylic acid methyl ester (“TCA”). This is our main bulk chemical product.

Due to a government order issued by the local government on January 10, 2007, our Yidu Benda plant has been shut down since the middle of January 2007 for improvement of our waste water treatment systems. The order requires us to finish the improvement and be compliant by June 30, 2007. On September 25, and October 1, 2007, Yidu Benda had passed the environmental assessment and safety assessment by the Yichang Environmental Protection Bureau and Yichang Safety Supervision Bureau These two bureaus have issued “Environmental Influence Report” and “Safety Assessment Report” in November and December of 2007, respectively. Yichang Environmental Protection Bureau issued an approval document, (Document Number: Yichang Environmental Audit [2007] No. 111) and permitted the trial production of Yidu Benda on December 28, 2007, at which time Yidu Benda resumed full production. The related government agencies through trial production physically inspect the products produced by the newly installed production facilities. The main purpose for doing so is to ensure that the quality of the products is such that there will be no harm to the environment. In addition, Yidu Benda had also passed the examinations conducted by Yichang Public Security Bureau, Yichang Lightning Protection Institute and Yichang Special Equipment Inspection and Test Institute, in terms of the fire apparatus and facilities, lightning protection and static proof facilities etc. It is now permitted for the testing on actual production process. Once the actual products are produced, then the environmental government bodies will re-test the production results. The management could not estimate the exact timing for obtaining the final approval on the actual production process. Furthermore, the management is searching for new products to be produced in Yidu Benda which with higher profit margin.

SiBiono Product

SiBiono is a gene therapy company dedicated to the development, manufacturing and commercialization of gene therapy products. As a pioneer in gene therapy in China, SiBiono's mission is to develop innovative gene therapy products for the improvement of human health and life quality. The Company has developed two core technology platforms: Viral Vector Gene Delivery System and Non-Viral Vector Gene Delivery System focusing on development of gene therapy product for cancer and cardiovascular diseases.

MARKETING AND DISTRIBUTION METHODS OF PRODUCTS AND SERVICES

Prescription Medicines

Two types of distribution channels exist in the Chinese medicine industry.

For high value branded medicines: Pharmaceutical Manufacturers à Agents à Sub Agents à Medicine Representatives à Hospitals or Pharmacies à Patients

For low value generics: Pharmaceutical Manufacturers à Wholesalers à Secondary Wholesalers à Hospitals or Pharmacies à Patients

The major difference between an agent and a wholesaler is that the agent has exclusive product sales rights from each manufacturer in each region, which is generally a province. Sometimes manufacturers have several wholesalers in a region.

The table below illustrates price markups along the distribution channel for a typical Benda Ebei branded drug, Shusai-A.

Shusai-A Price Markup Pattern

	Purchase Price per piece in RMB		Price Markup
Patients		40.00	54%
Retail/Hospitals		26.00	622%
Medicine Reps		3.60	29%
Sub-agents		2.80	56%
Agents		1.80
Benda Ebei		n/a

The highest price markup along the distribution channel is on sales by medicine reps to hospitals because such markups finance kick-backs paid by the reps to doctors. This unfortunate, but common, practice is condemned by PRC’s patients and medical industry regulators, but no effective method has been found to stamp it out. In reality, there are “kick-backs” phenomena which are paid by the reps to doctors, not by our company to doctors. However, in the normal course of business, sales commission would be incurred between our company and clients, such as agents or wholesalers etc., in order to have a sense of incentive to them. This sales commission scheme is fully disclosed in the sales contracts and is also allowed by the relevant PRC regulations.

Benda Ebei sells its products to agents or wholesalers. This method minimizes the need for a direct sales force and distances Benda Ebei from questionable kick-backs and potential legal consequences.

Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients (“APIs”)

Our APIs are purchased by other Chinese drug companies on an order-by-order basis. The domestic industry is tight-knit and API marketing still relies on word-of-mouth, reputation, and personal contacts. Although we have temporarily closed the Jiangling plant to complete renovation and obtain GMP certification, we have maintained relationships with all our former clients and expect to bring on other drug companies as new customers.

Jiangling Plant is primarily engaged in producing Ribose, a bulk chemical which does not require GMP approval and Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients (API) which need GMP approval.

Jiangling Benda was re-opened in August 2007. The products that are planned to be produced in Jiangling Benda are as follows:

a) Ribavirin API (Anti-virus)

b) Asarin API (Antibiotic)

c) Levofloxacin (Antibiotic)

d) Ribose

These four products are classified as API whereas the production of Ribavirin, Asarin and Levofloxacin need to obtain GMP approval, however the production of Ribose does not need the GMP approval. Currently, Jiangling Benda only produces Ribose and which is a kind of API.

Bulk chemicals

We market our bulk chemicals by cultivating strong, long-term relationships with loyal customers. We usually supply customers pursuant to annual renewable contracts. Customers usually start by buying small quantities and gradually increasing order sizes. We also enjoy long-standing relationships with a number of important exporters. These sales contracts are signed annually.

Beijing Shusai Pharyngitis Research Co., Ltd.

Beijing Shusai Pharyngitis Research Co., Ltd, a recently established subsidiary of Benda Ebei, handles our Pharyngitis Killer therapy operation, promotion, and distribution. Key functional departments are as follows:

·	Training. Trains doctors, doctor assistants, and medical workers.

·	Advisory. Advises each clinic on how best to apply the Pharyngitis Killer treatment.

·	Business Development. Extend the footprint of Pharyngitis clinics and implement patient outreach programs.

·	Marketing. Formulate and execute marketing plans.

·	Finance. Provide internal financial services to support business operations.

·	Logistics. Ensure no bottlenecks or shortages in product supply to the clinics.

Special Marketing Initiatives

(1)	Qiweiben Capsule Initiative. Benda Ebei intends to develop a series of products based on the Qiweiben Capsule and designed to treat diabetes. They will be sold through diabetes recovery centers and regional distributors.

(2)	Jixuening Initiative. We plan to develop a group of haemostatic medicines based on our core Jixuening brand. Benda Ebei’s Jixuening has been listed in the Catalog of Basic Medicines Covered by Social Medical Security.

(3)

Analgesic Initiative. The treatment of pain attracts more attention from PRC’s medical community and hospitals around the country that are setting up pain clinics. Our Shusai-A and Lappaconitine Hydrobromide products are uniquely powerful pain killers and are not addictive. We plan to leverage their popularity to promote our other pain killers and thereby build a series of pain killer medicines.

(4)	Asarin Initiative. We intend to form a group of medicines, based on Asarin, which will be designed to cure upper respiratory tract infection.

STATUS OF PUBLICLY ANNOUNCED NEW PRODUCTS/SERVICES

We expect that the following products in our development pipeline will generate growth in our revenues in the next few years. We expect to begin mass production for products once we receive SFDA’s approval.

The registration of a medicine must first be undertaken at the provincial level. First, you need to make an application in the provincial Food and Drug administration, then you must pass the on-the-spot examination of the provincial registration office and the initial inspection of information experts. After that, you can apply for the experts’ technological evaluation of National Medicine Analysis and Judgment center. Only after you received the technological evaluation, your registration can be transferred to SFDA to have administrative ratification. After the ratification, you will be issued new license and ratification number. In most situations, after the application and record of provincial Food and Drug administration, the company’s products will not be examined again by National Medicine Analysis and Judgment center, which is similar to the first step of technological check.

Due to the restructuring of SFDA, the process of approval new drug has been on hold since the beginning of 2007. We do not know how long it will take to resume the approval process.

The Company can only obtain the license for the new medicine and the production license after the completion of the clinical experiments. The procedures of obtaining new drug certificate with the SFDA are as follows:

1. Submit the application to the Province SFDA;

2. Then the Province SFDA will perform the physical inspection;

3. If we pass the physical inspection, the related application would be transferred to the State SFDA;

4. After ratification, the new drug license and ratification number would be issued.

New Branded Medicines

Our upcoming branded medicines include Qiweiben capsule and Yanlong anti-cancer oral liquid, which are proprietary traditional Chinese medicines, and Pharyngitis Killer Therapy, which is a combination of herb-based traditional Chinese medicine and treatments. We expect these products to have a significant positive impact on our future operational results.

(1) The first protection period will commence when the proprietary TCM protection application is approved. The second protection period can be applied for when the first protection period is expired.

(2) TCM therapies do not require SFDA approval. We chose not to apply for patent protection for this product’s formula due to our concerns about disclosures required in the patent application process.

(3) Benda owns 75% of Beijing Shusai Pharyngitis Research Co., Ltd., a company that owns all product and market exploitation rights to Pharyngitis Killer Therapy.

(4) The inventor of Yanlong Anti-cancer oral liquid, Mr. Yan Li, has reserved the right to sell the product to one hospital in Hong Kong, one hospital in Taiwan and one hospital in Shenzhen province.

(5) GMP certification is expected once the facility installation for the products below referenced products and examination by the related local government agency is completed.

(6) Due to recent restructuring within SFDA, the approval process for new medicines has been ceased since November 2006, except for the first class new medicines which are drugs that have never been sold or appeared in the market in China. The management expects that such situation would still last for an indefinite period.

(7) According to the relevant Chinese patent drug policies of SFDA, all national protective Chinese patent drugs can apply for a seven-year protective period. During the period, other pharmaceutical enterprises cannot produce imitation products. After the first seven years, the company can apply for another seven years’ protective period.

Pharyngitis Killer Therapy (Anti-Respiratory Tract Infections)

Product Description: This is an entirely natural Chinese medicine and treatment containing no hormones or antibiotics, which cures a wide range of upper respiratory tract infections, ranging from the common cough to more advanced respiratory illnesses, such as acute and chronic pharyngitis, tracheitis and bronchitis which has already been proven by clinical trails which are conducted by the company together with the co-operated hospitals.

The clinical trials were conducted by the company together with co-operated hospitals which was based on the sample size 50 chronic respiratory patients who either had the symptom pharyngoxerosis throat itch, chest distress and feeling suffocated or oppressed, throat swelling and sore or vocal cord weary and hoarseness. The medical products used as a comparison were Pharyngitis Killer Therapy (in form of herb drink) alone and chronic comprehensive therapy.

We believe the oral liquid taken alone has a success rate of up to 80% in treating chronic pharyngitis; however, if accompanied by further treatment, success rates of up to 98% can be achieved.

This medicine, in the form of herbal drink, was developed and kept secret over many generations by the Wang family of Beijing. The formula and treatment was initially invented in 682 A.D. by Wang Zhaojing, a famous doctor in Chinese medical history. We believe the oral liquid taken alone has a success rate of up to 80% in treating chronic pharyngitis; however, if accompanied by further treatment, success rates of up to 98% can be achieved.

However, the above data was only conducted by the company together with co-operated hospitals which was based on the sample size 50 chronic respiratory patients. In order words, such clinical trials were not performed by the formal requirement of SFDA.

Our Pharyngitis Killer therapy:

·	Swiftly smoothes away throat itching and coughing

·	Controls the development of disease in the mucus of the mouth

·	Rebuilds the immune function of the throat area

·	Provides a natural therapy, which is without side effects and free of antibiotics

Market Outlook: With the recent urbanization and industrialization of PRC, pollution has become a big problem. Air pollution in particular causes several diseases of the pharynx. Researchers believe that approximately 10% of the people who live in cities suffer from pharynx disease, while in some rural areas, the ratio is a lower, though still significant, 5.5%. Until now treatments for upper respiratory tract infections have relied on antibiotics to control acute pharyngitis temporarily. However, no medicine in the market has thus far been effective at treating chronic pharyngitis. Pharyngitis Killer therapy overcomes the deficiencies of other treatments and eradicates the disease.

Purchase: The operating company for the Pharyngitis Killer therapy is Beijing Shusai. The total registered capital is 1.2 million RMB. As part of the joint venture, Mr. Wang contributed the Pharyngitis Killer formula and treatment as intangible assets, valued at 300,000 RMB, in return for 25% of Benda Shusai’s equity. Benda Ebei invested 900,000 RMB in cash for 75% equity.

IP protection/ technology confidentiality: Pharyngitis Killer is a traditional Chinese medicine and as such does not require SFDA approval. Benda Ebei has chosen not to file for patent protection on the formula in order to avoid disclosing the product formula. It believes that the formula and treatment are effectively protected by: (a) the separation of auxiliary ingredients with a proprietary catalyst powder called Yao Yin; (b) a proprietary production method for the oral liquid; and (3) by proprietary treatment techniques. We plan to apply for patent protection for both the processing method used to make the oral liquid and the treatment method applied on patients.

Promotion: We plan to market Pharyngitis Killer as a stand alone oral liquid medicine that can be combined with surgery-like treatment to achieve results. In August 2006, the PRC State Administration of Traditional Chinese Medicine (“SATCM”) issued an official promotional document to provincial SATCM’s, in which Pharyngitis Killer therapy is categorized as a recommended TCM and treatment. This official promotional document was issued on August 18, 2006 based on an expert panel review of Pharyngitis Killer conducted in August 2006.

Marketing and Distribution: We are setting up self-operated and franchised Pharyngitis Clinics. Benda Ebei currently has two clinics in full operation in Beijing. Benda Ebei has prepared advertising and marketing campaigns to support the rapid expansion of the franchise, which will begin after the closing of this offering. Our self-operated clinics will be located inside hospitals. A proportion of the gross revenues will be paid to the host hospitals in lieu of rent and as compensation for any marketing efforts made on our behalf. Franchised Pharyngitis Killer clinics will be operated by franchisees, which will buy the medicine from us and pay us a franchising fee. We plan to open franchising clinics only at the beginning of the roll-out period in order to accelerate the revenue growth and minimize start-up costs. At a later stage, we plan to open self operated clinics only because we expect that they will be comparatively more profitable and easier to manage.

Status of Planned Pharyngitis Clinics

Due to the restructuring of SFDA, the related policies of SFDA have changed such that the local hospitals are not allowed to co-operate with third parties. These changes have caused us to discontinue our plans of setting of Pharyngitis Clinics. The management of the company is seeking and considering other alternatives to launch this particular drug, however up to now there is no definite plan yet.

Qiweiben Capsule (alleviates symptoms of diabetes)

Product Description: Benda Ebei has the exclusive right to produce a new, effective, herbal medicine against diabetes, which was developed in cooperation with Shandong Haiyang Biotech Co., Ltd. (“Haiyang”). Qiweiben capsule is a medicine used to reduce symptoms of patients suffering from type II diabetes and improve their sexual ability. It contains 7 active pharmaceutical ingredients (“APIs”) extracted from animals and plants; its major API is an extract from virgin male silk moths. This medicine has the following key benefits:

(1)	Reduces blood glucose.

(2)	Cures erectile dysfunction and reduces sexual dysfunction caused by diabetes. The Qiweiben capsule is unique amongst diabetic medicines in this regard.

(3)	As it is a complementary medicine based on natural ingredients, the patient reduces intake of chemical medicines.

Market Outlook: Diabetes has become a common and frequently occurring disease that threatens the health of an increasing portion of the population. According to the 5 th International Diabetes Union conference held in Beijing in 2002, there are 130 million type II diabetes patients around the world, over 40 million of which are in PRC. In the 21 st century, type II diabetes is expected to be epidemic in developing countries such as PRC and India. Such a large patient group provides a significant market opportunity for Qiweiben Capsule. Artificial insulin is currently the most widely used medicine for the treatment of diabetes. Patients using artificial insulin can become addicted to it and also suffer the discomfort of needle injections. These disadvantages can be reduced by using our Qiweiben capsule as a complement to artificial insulin. Pilot studies conducted by Haiyang in 2001 have shown that the Qiweiben capsule significantly reduces one or more symptoms of diabetes in 88% of cases.

Rights Purchase: Qiweiben is the brand name of this medicine. The registered drug name is Qiwei Xiaoke capsule. The SFDA production permit (SFDA Z200110150) was held by Shandong Leaf Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. On March 14, 2004, Benda Ebei agreed to pay Haiyang RMB 5 million ($625,000) for the technology required for the extraction of virgin male silk moth essence, the SFDA production permit (SFDA Z200110150) and the New Medicine Certificate (SFDA Z20010134). The purchase agreement provided for the immediate transfer of the production permit and the deferred payment of the RMB 5 million ($625,000) within three years after Benda Ebei begins to sell the product.

IP protection/ technology confidentiality: Benda Ebei will apply for TCM protection for Qiweiben and expects a reply from the SFDA no later than 6 months thereafter. According to new regulations, protected TCM status is granted for 7 years from the registration date, during which period no other party may produce it. Thereafter, a further 7 year protection may be granted to the right holder depending on factors such as the effectiveness, production standards, quality and safety of the product. Benda Ebei also has pending patents for the protection of technological and manufacturing processes used to produce this medicine.

Production: We have been building Qiweiben production facilities. In order to produce qiwweiben, the following table shows the production facilities or equipment which have been purchased and installed. The equipment are all located in Benda Ebei and waiting for the government agency for inspection:

No.	Equipment	Model No.	Quantity
1	Muller	300A	2
2	powder shifter	ZS-350	2
3	powder shifter	XS-650	1
4	3D mixer blender	HD-1000	1
5	Ultrasonic spray drier	FL-120	1
6	Wet mixer granulator	GHL-250	1

We intend to start manufacturing and marketing the product immediately after receiving GMP certification. However, due to recent restructuring within SFDA, the approval process for new medicines has been ceased since November 2006, except for the first class new medicines. The management expects that such situation would still last for an indefinite period.

Clinical Experiments:

Qi Wei Xiao Ke capsule is a Chinese traditional medicine capsule whose main raw material is male Sangcan moth of no copulation. Biochemistry engineering technique is used to extract its useful components, which are produced to traditional Chinese medicine capsule preparation by adding six additional kinds of traditional Chinese medicinal materials.

Experiments with animals have shown that it can lower the blood glucose of streptozotocin diabetes big mouse and ALX diabetes little mouse and can increase the big mouse’s glucose tolerance content of ALX and prolong the submerged weight swimming time of ALX diabetes little mouse.

The male Sangcan moth is rich in brain hormone, ecdysone, male hormone, etc. and contains many amino acid, vitamins and microelement that are needed by the human body. The biological extracts of the male Sangcan moth which are added with milk veteh, the extracts of root of yellow kudzuvine and sealwort, and the extracts of medlar, and then mixed with trichosanthes and rhubarb micro mist, are adequate for traditional medicine’s curing for deficiency of both yin and yang, II diabetes of Qi deficiency and blood silt. It is tested for 420 clinical researches in Beijing Guang An Men Hospital-a subordinate hospital of China Academy of Chinese Medical Sciences and Shandong traditional Chinese medicine hospital, Liaoning traditional Chinese medicine hospital, and Jiangsu traditional Chinese medicine hospital which are four clinical experiment base of new drug. The total effective rate is 88.67% regardless of whether the disease history is long or short, and it has no poisonous side effect to human body.

The medicine was conferred patent of invention by National Patent Bureau in 1996 (patent No. Z96105259·7). Qi Wei Xiao Ke capsule received the new drug license (SFDA No.: Z20010134) and production approval license (SFDA No.: Z200110150) issued by SFDA in October, 2001.

Up to date, we have already submitted the related documents and awaiting for the approval of SFDA.

Yan Long Anti-cancer Oral Liquid

Product Description: The Yan Long Anti-Cancer Oral Liquid (“Yan Long”) is a conventional Chinese patent drug effective against cancers of the digestive tract such as anal, bile duct, colon, esophageal, gallbladder, liver, pancreatic, rectal, and gastric cancers. It is especially effective in helping patients withstand chemotherapy treatment. Yan Long has successfully completed first and second phase clinical trials and Benda Ebei plans to begin the third phase.

Yanlong Anti-cancer Oral Liquid is a kind of pure mixture contains Chinese traditional medicine such as: Baiying, Morel, Salvia, Gentiana, Angelica, etc.

Starting in 1989, Yanlong anti-cancer oral liquid was given to 30 patients with primary liver cancer for the clinical trails. The number of the survivals for the year of 1990, 1991, 1992 and 1993 were 23, 17, 11 and 8 respectively. By March 2004, among the eight surviving patients, two do not have any signs of recurrence, three take care of themselves but are still physically weak, three regressed and returned to the hospital for treatment. I n this clinical research, the survival rate of the patients observed for over 14 years reached 26.67%.

Inventor: The development of Yan Long has been the life work of Dr. Yan Li, one of the nation’s most well-recognized experts in cancer studies. Dr. Li has been an oncology specialist for over 40 years and has held various prestigious positions in the cancer research field in PRC. He was born in 1931. In 1956, he went to study in Beijing College of TCM and graduated in 1962. After that, he worked in the Beijing TCM Hospital Oncology Department for 12 years. In 1970, he was promoted to physician in charge. In 1974, he transferred to the institute of oncology of Beijing Medical University. In 1984, he was appointed as vice president of Beijing Sino-Japan Friendship Hospital. He developed an anti-cancer oral liquid based on his decades of research and experience and named it Yan Long Anti-Cancer Oral Liquid.

Rights Purchase: Benda Ebei and Dr. Yan Li (“Li”) signed an agreement regarding the production, marketing, and sales of Yan Long. Benda Ebei signed agreement to buy all rights to Yan Long from Mr. Li for RMB 5 million ($625,000). Once sales of Yan Long commence a monthly payment of RMB 150,000 ($18,750) per month for the first six months and RMB 300,000 ($37,500) thereafter will be paid. Benda Ebei will cease payment when the accumulated monthly payments reach the RMB 5 million ($625,000) agreed purchase price. Li and Benda Ebei are obliged to keep the Yan Long formula secret. Li retains the right to produce and sell Yan Long in his own clinic. Benda Ebei management believes that this will not significantly impact Benda Ebei’s revenue from Yan Long.

IP protection/ technology confidentiality: Benda Ebei has applied for patent protection for Yan Long and expects to receive a 10 year patent when the registration process is completed

Production: The production facilities and equipment for Yan Long were installed and implemented in July 2007. We intend to start manufacturing and marketing the product immediately after receiving GMP certification. Due to recent restructuring within SFDA, the approval process for new medicines has been ceased since November 2006, except for the first class new medicines. The management expects that such situation would still last for an indefinite period. The process of third phase clinic trail of Yang Long, application for IP protection and the application of certificate are pending.

New Bulk Chemicals

We are in the process of developing and bringing to market 7-Phenylacetamido-3-chloromethyl cephalosporanic acid P-Metoxy Benzyl Ester (“GCLE”), which is a medicine intermediate, chemical name which is used for cephalotin antibiotics. Japan Otsuka Chemical Industry Company originally developed the process to produce GCLE and held the worldwide patent on the GCLE production process. The PRC patent protection period expired in 2005. Since then Benda’s research center and the Wuhan Institute of Chemical Technology have jointly mastered this process of GCLE production. We have completed small-scale and mid-scale trial productions, and expect to be able to produce 200 tons of GCLE in 2007 and 500 tons in 2008. Domestic demand for this product is expected to increase by 28% in 2006 to 1,200 metric tons 3. This demand is currently met by imports.

This new product will be produced in our Yidu plant. Due to a government order issued by the local government on January 10, 2007, our Yidu Benda plant has been shut down since the middle of January 2007 for improvement of our waste water treatment systems. The order requires us to finish the improvement and be compliant by June 30, 2007.

Yidu Benda has completed its upgrading of the waster water system and passed the government’s verification and testing of equipments in October 2007. It is now permitted for the testing on actual production process. Once the actual products are produced, then the environmental government bodies will re-test the production results. The management could not estimate the exact timing for obtaining the final approval on the actual production process.

INDUSTRY AND COMPETITIVE FACTORS

There is certain industry and competitive factors which we believe will be critical to achieving our growth:

·	Rapidly growing Chinese pharmaceutical market. In 2005, China was the 9th largest and fastest growing pharmaceutical market in the world. The Chinese currently spend about $12 per capita on pharmaceuticals compared to $340 per capital in the U.S. As the Chinese population ages and becomes wealthier, the already large Chinese pharmaceutical market is poised for continued explosive growth. According to IMS Health, Inc., a research firm, the Chinese pharmaceutical market grew by over 28% and 20% in 2004 and 2005, respectively. According to Boston Consulting Group, China’s pharmaceutical market will become the 5 th largest in the world by 2010. Further, a recent report by McKinsey & Co. reported that Chinese healthcare spending will grow from $21 billion in 2000 to approximately $323 billion by 2025, or at a compounded growth rate of 11.6%. (Farrell D., Gersch U., Stephenson E., (2006) The Value of China’s Emerging Middle Class, McKinsey Quarterly)

·	Benda is uniquely positioned to capture market share. Our growth potential will be largely driven by the gene therapy product which is known as Gendicine and used for the treatment of cancer. On October 16, 2003, SiBiono successfully obtained a New Drug License from the State Food & Drug Administration of China (SFDA), and then, in April 4, 2004, SiBiono obtained “Manufacture Certificate” and “Certificate of GMP for Pharmaceutical Product”, so far being fully qualified for the market launch of Recombinant Human Ad-p53 Injection, trademarked as Gendicine ® in China. Gendicine ® is the first ever commercialized gene therapy product approved in the world by a government agency. Gendicine is recognized by the world's first class journals as a major milestone in the field of gene research and biotechnology and is expect to make important contribution to mankind's endeavor for improving human health.

·	Low cost producer. Our continuing success in optimizing our manufacturing processes and minimizing our production costs provides us with a competitive advantage. For example, we have recently developed innovative processes that achieve Ribavirin (an API in common anti-viral injections) yield rates 4.5 per cent higher than the competition, while at the same time reducing Ribavirin manufacturing costs by 9 per cent.

·	Government sponsored industry consolidation presents opportunities for acquisitions. According to Business China magazine, China’s thousands of domestic companies account for 70 percent of the pharmaceutical market. Anticipating the effects of WTO entry and in an effort to compete with foreign firms, the Chinese government has decided to nurture its own large pharmaceutical companies, by encouraging the consolidation of its government-owned companies. To this end, the Chinese State Economic and Trade Commission (SETC) announced plans to consolidate the industry and support the development of 10 to 15 largest pharmaceutical firms. According to government statistics China currently has about 3,500 drug companies, down from over 5,000 in 2004. The number is expected to drop further. As the industry undergoes further consolidation, Benda will have the opportunity to grow by acquisition.

Benda’s GMP compliant manufacturing processes provide us with a strong competitive advantage in the Chinese healthcare market. The government has formulated an Action Plan for the Modernization of Chinese Medicine to boost the quality of Chinese medicine and enhance China's ability to compete in world markets. As such, all domestic producers of APIs were required to be GMP compliant by the end of 2004. Since the end of June 2004, the SFDA has been closing down manufacturers that do not meet the new GMP standards. In contrast to many of its competitors, Benda has made significant investments in refitting our manufacturing systems to comply with GMP standards. Our Benda Ebei plant received GMP certificate from SFDA on November 11, 2003 and renew on December 3, 2008 for the production of injection vials; while on November 26, 2007, Benda Ebei received a GMP for the production of tablets. Our Jiangling Benda plants received GMP certificate on April 9, 2008 which authorizing the production of Ribavrin. Our SiBiono received GMP certificate on October 16, 2003. Our Yidu Benda facilities, which produce bulk chemicals, are not subject to GMP certification requirement.

RAW MATERIALS AND PRINCIPAL SUPPLIERS

Benda Ebei Suppliers

Benda Ebei plant manufactures injection vials from APIs. Benda Ebei’s largest supplier of APIs was Hubei Fourth Ring Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. In 2007, Benda Ebei purchased approximately $4.32 million, worth of Tranexamic Acid from this supplier, equivalent to 14 per cent of Benda Ebei’s raw materials purchases by value. In 2008, Benda Ebei’s largest supplier of APIs was Nan Yang Re Gong Co. Ltd and Benda Ebei purchased approximately $2.9 MM worth of Tranexamic Acid from this supplier, equivalent to 28 per cent of Benda Ebei’s raw materials purchases by value.

Jiangling Benda Suppliers

Our Jiangling Benda plant manufactures APIs from bulk chemicals. Jiangling Benda’s largest supplier of bulk chemicals is Wuhan Zhongnan Supplying Co., Ltd. In 2004, Jiangling Benda purchased $400,000 worth of Acetic Anhydride from this supplier, equivalent to 26.2 per cent of Jiangling Benda’s raw materials purchases by value. The Jiangling Benda plant has made no further raw materials purchases since its closure for renovation.

Jiangling Benda re-opened on August 10, 2007 and started producing Ribose. In year of 2008, the largest supplier was Hubei Zhijiang Shanyau Chemical Co. Ltd., and approximately $74 K worth of raw materials was purchased from this suppliers, equivalent to 13.16% of total the raw materials purchases by value.

Yidu Benda Suppliers

Our Yidu Benda plant manufactures bulk chemicals from other bulk chemicals.

Due to an government order issued by the local government on January 10, 2007, our Yidu Benda plant has been shut down since the middle of January 2007 for improvement of our waste water treatment systems. The order requires us to finish the improvement and be compliant by June 30, 2007.

Packaging Material Suppliers

Our packaging materials are purchased from two main suppliers. In 2007, we purchased approximately $0.9 MM worth of plastic packaging material from Anlu ZhongYa Plastics Package Factory, equivalent to 11 per cent of our packaging supplies by value. In 2008, we purchased approximately $0.62 MM worth of plastic packaging material from Anlu ZhongYa Plastics Package Factory and Anlu Zhong’Ao Printing Factory, equivalent to 20 per cent of our packaging supplies by value.

The standardized purchasing contract, which is designed by the PRC government agency, is being adopted. The major terms (or components) of the purchasing contracts are stated are as follows:

1.	payment schedule which is based on the negotiation;

2.	the goods are inspected and received according to the PRC regulations for materials of producing drug;

3.	breach contract, then parties have the right to sue in the PRC local civil courts;

As there were many transaction contracts during the years, since the company formed purchasing contract with the suppliers for lots of material purchased, therefore we just listed three of those and shown as a sample for reference.

However, our company does not depend on any sole source suppliers, since the raw materials market is opened in the sense that we could have plenty of choices of the suppliers (each category of materials purchased may have three to five suppliers in the market). We only choose those suppliers who could offer better terms to us and having a long term co-operation relationship.

OUR INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY

We regard our service marks, trademarks, trade secrets, patents and similar intellectual property as critical factors to our success. We rely on patent, trademark and trade secret law, as well as confidentiality and license agreements with certain of our employees, customers and others to protect our proprietary rights.

Pursuant to the PRC TCM Protection Regulation, certain ready-made TCM products which have received SFDA approval have automatic protected intellectual property rights for a seven-year period from the date of grant of such approval. An application can subsequently be made to extend such protection for up to three consecutive seven-year periods. Once this protection period has expired, a company may apply for patent protection.

To a large extent, we rely on such protection regulation to protect our intellectual property rights with respect to such products. In addition, as of December 31, 2005, we filed four patents for manufacturing technologies, primarily relating to our medicine products and manufacturing techniques and the applications are still in the approval process

Our Patents

Two types of medicine-related patents exist in PRC: the medicine production technique patent and medicine invention formula patent. In PRC, illegal infringements of production technique patents are widespread. A tiny modification to a filed medicine production technique might be construed as a new one and argued as not violating the patent laws. Therefore, Benda Ebei has historically tried to avoid applying for this kind of patent in order to protect its technological secrets.

Invention formula patents are as easily imitated as production technique patents. However, since only one SFDA production certificate can be issued on new branded medicine based on the major pharmaceutical ingredients used, a minor modification to the formula would not warrant a new SFDA production certificate. This means that, even if another manufacturer gets to know a patented formula, it won’t be able to produce it, at least in PRC, without the proper SFDA production certificate.

The validity of the patent is 20 years since the application date.

On January 29, 2008, SiBiono entrusted Grandall Legal Group Shenzhen Law Firm to issue a legal letter to Zhaohui Peng, one of the shareholders of Sibiono and the inventor of Gendicine, demanding that he transfer all the title of patents to SiBiono, as SiBiono is the rightful owner of the patents.

On June 18, 1999, during the formation of SiBiono, Zhaohui Peng transferred the rights to the patent “A new method for manufacturing recombinant adenovirus” and related research results to SiBiono as a payment for the registered capital. In return, Zhaohui Peng was granted 32.03% of the common stock of SiBiono.

From 1999 to 2007, SiBiono successfully obtained various technology funds from various government technology agencies to support the further research and development activities of Gendicine. Due to this significant funding obtained by SiBiono, Sibiono developed five additional patents which are summarized in the above table.

As indicated in the above table, Item 1, the patent “A new method for manufacturing recombinant adenovirus” had been assigned to SiBiono; however, the other approved patents (item 2 through item 4) in PRC still have not been assigned to SiBiono. The Group believes that all the above mentioned patents should be rightfully transferred to SiBiono, a subsidiary of the Group. Accordingly, the above mentioned legal letter was issued on this ground.

On August 27, 2008, the Group through its subsidiary, SiBiono filed an application to the Guongdong Province Shenzhen City (Middle) Peoples’ Court to demand Zhaozhu Peng to transfer back all the above mentioned patents to SiBiono. The case has been accepted by the Court and is waiting for its further investigation.

Our Trademarks

Benda currently owns four trademarks: Jixuening, Benda, Suzheng-B, and Shusai-A. Benda has filed trademark applications, the approvals of which are pending, for other 13 medicine names or general trademarks and the applications are still in the approval process.

WORK SAFETY ISSUES

On November 10, 2005, there was a small explosion in the Yidu plant resulting in the deaths of two of our workers. This tragic accident resulted from the violation of our operating procedures by one of the workers killed in the explosion. We paid RMB 260,000 ($32,000) to each of the victims’ families in settlement of any compensation issues. On November 11, 2005, there was another explosion in the same factory resulting from a chemical reaction triggered by the prior explosion. Fortunately management had anticipated this incident and the plant had already been temporally sealed so nobody was killed.

Following the events of November 10 and 11, 2005 we have put in place very strict work safety procedures and revised the design of the relevant production process in order to avoid similar incidents in the future. We believe Benda is not liable for any further material liabilities arising from these explosions.

RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT ACTIVITIES DURING THE PRIOR TWO FISCAL YEARS

We spent $1,461,951 and $553,962 on direct research and development (“R&D”) efforts in 2008 and 2007, respectively. Rather than spend considerable sums internally on R&D in a market where we cannot easily protect our results of development, we prefer to leverage our management team’s extensive industrial network and knowledge in finding new drugs and treatments that may be potentially very successful but which have not yet been brought to market. We carefully evaluate each of these drugs before making a purchase decision. We believe each of our new products will enjoy considerable success in the market.

We also leverage our network of leading research institutions and universities to optimize the effectiveness of our investment in production R&D. We allocate and fund research projects to these institutions. Our in-house scientists coordinate and supervise the outsourced R&D processes. We have the rights to all results of the R&D efforts including IP rights. In order to protect our interests we usually divide each project into several sections and assign each section to a different research institution. Each research ally therefore only works on a limited part of each project. Some universities and institutes that work with us are:

·	Life Science College of Wuhan University.

·	Biochemical College of Sanxia University

·	Jilin Medical University

·	Shanghai Institute of Pharmacy of Chinese Academy of Sciences.

·	Wuhan University of Chemical Technology.

The science and technology cooperation agreement between College of Chemistry and Life Science of China Three Gorges University and Yidu Benda:

Party A: China Three Gorges University (Party A for short in the following)

Party B: Yidu Benda Chemical Co.Ltd. (Party B for short in the following)

To increase the science and technology progress of Yidu Benda Chemical Engineering, Inc. (“Yidu Benda”), to improve the quality of its products and its production efficiency, and to fully make use of scientific intelligence, technologies and experimental equipments of College of Chemistry and Life Science of China Three Gorges University (“University”), after negotiation, the two parties decided to cooperatively build a “drug raw material research and development group”. The concrete agreements are as follows:

The “drug raw material research and development group” is consist of members of both parties, including one group leader, two assistant group leaders and five science and technology workers. The group leader is assigned by University, while the two assistant leaders are assigned by the two parties, one for each party. The remaining five workers are decided by negotiation according to the demands of project research.

2.	The research and development projects are put forward by Yidu Benda, and are decided after the demonstration of the two parties.

The research funds are supported by Yidu Benda, and University shall supply all the experimental equipment and the related condition according to needs, in which including: University provide certain number of chemistry and chemical engineering apparatus and equipment for common usage and help Yidu Benda to build a basic laboratory and assist Yidu Benda to build a pilot laboratory.

4.	The expense of the research and development projects includes: drug reagent, low priced and easily worn detecting fees, the transportation fees between school and company and allowance of research workers.

5.	University can directly send relative researchers to Yidu Benda to organize and guide project task research according to needs.

6.	The property rights and interests of the project achievements will be appointed by Project Contract.

COMPLIANCE WITH ENVIRONMENTAL LAW

We comply with the Environmental Protection Law of PRC as well as applicable local regulations. In addition to statutory and regulatory compliance, we actively ensure the environmental sustainability of our operations. Penalties would be levied upon us if we fail to adhere to and maintain certain standards. Such failure has not occurred in the past, and we generally do not anticipate that it will occur in the future, but no assurance can be given in this regard.

Our Yidu Benda facility produces bulk chemical intermediates for raw material medicine and does not require GMP certification. Yidu Benda was temporarily closed since mid January to upgrade its waste water treatment system to comply with new environmental standards enforced by PRC local government.

Due to an government order issued by the local government on January 10, 2007, our Yidu Benda plant has been shut down since the mid of January 2007 for improvement of our waste water treatment systems. The order requires us to finish the improvement and be compliant by June 30, 2007. Up to date, the company had spent approximately $0.2 MM to re-design and improve the existing system. Nowadays, Yidu Benda has completed its upgrading of the waste water system and passed the government’s verification and testing of equipments in October 2007. It is now permitted for the testing on actual production process. Once the actual products are produced, then the environmental government bodies will re-test the production results. The management could not estimate the exact timing for obtaining the final approval on the actual production process. Furthermore, the management is searching for new products to be produced in Yidu Benda which with higher profit margin.

SHENZHEN SIBIONO GENE TECHNOLOGY CO., LTD.

On April 5, 2007, Hubei Tongji Benda Ebei Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd., a Sino-Foreign Equity Joint Venture company incorporated under the laws of the PRC (“Benda Ebei”), of which Ever Leader Holdings Limited, a company incorporated under the laws of Hong Kong SAR ("Ever Leader") and a wholly owned subsidiary of Benda Pharmaceutical, Inc. (the “Company”), owns 95% of the outstanding common stock, has entered into Equity Transfer Agreements with certain shareholders of Shenzhen SiBiono Gene Technology Co., Ltd. (“SiBiono”), a corporation established and validly existing under the law of the PRC, to purchase a total of approximately 57.57% of the shares of SiBiono’s common stock for total consideration of RMB60,000,000 due and payable on or before April 30, 2007.

On June 11, 2007, Benda Ebei entered into Equity Transfer Agreements with Yaojin Wang and Huimin Zhang, shareholders of SiBiono, for the purchase of an additional 2.56% of the shares of SiBiono’s common stock for total consideration of RMB2,560,000 due and payable on or before June 30, 2007. Accordingly, Benda Ebei holds a total of 60.13% of the shares of SiBiono’s common stock.

Business of SiBiono

Shenzhen SiBiono GeneTech Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as SiBiono) is a gene therapy company dedicated to the development, manufacturing and commercialization of gene therapy products. The Company was founded in early 1998 and is located in Shenzhen Hi-Tech Industrial Park, Shenzhen, China. As a pioneer in gene therapy in China, SiBiono’s mission is to develop innovative gene therapy products for the improvement of human health and life quality. The Company has developed two core technology platforms: Viral Vector Gene Delivery System and Non-Viral Vector Gene Delivery System focusing on development of gene therapy product for cancer and cardiovascular diseases.

On October 16, 2003, SiBiono successfully obtained a New Drug License from the State Food & Drug Administration of China (SFDA), and then, in April 2004, SiBiono obtained “Manufacture Certificate” and “Certificate of GMP for Pharmaceutical Product”, so far being fully qualified for the market launch of Recombinant Human Ad-p53 Injection, trademarked as Gendicine ® in China. Gendicine ® is the first ever commercialized gene therapy product approved in the world by a government agency. It is only approved and commercialized in PRC alone; however there is no other gene therapy product like Gendicine has been approved and commercialized in other countries. One of the factor causing this situation may be due to the fact that China’s lack of regulatory obstacles in conducting gene therapy trails.

SiBiono has established the validated GMP manufacturing plant for the production of gene therapy drugs. A complete set of quality-control assays and large-scale production processes were implemented in SiBiono in accordance with international regulations and standards for consistent manufacture of high quality gene therapy products. Based on SiBiono’s QC procedures and standards, the SFDA constituted and issued the national technological guideline - “Points to Consider for Human Gene Therapy and Product Quality Control” in May 2004. This document was also published in the magazine of Biopharm International for reference and peer review.

SiBiono has undertaken a number of national and provincial research and development projects, including biotechnology projects of “National 863 Plan”, projects of “National 973 Plan”, key research project of “National Tenth Five-Year-Plan”, projects funded by “National Innovation Fund”, projects of “National Key Scientific Development Plan”, National Hi-tech Industrialization Projects, Key Platform Technology Development Projects in Guangdong Province, as well as Hi-Tech Industrialization Projects of Shenzhen Municipality. By participating in those national projects, the reputation of SiBiono could be raised in China and also it allows us to apply for the funding from the local government agencies to support our gene therapy research activities.

The Company has 60.19 million RMB as its registered capital and currently has about 80 full-time employees.

Milestones of SiBiono

Since its establishment in March of 1998, SiBiono has evolved from a small start-up company to an internationally recognized gene therapy company with its successful launch of the world’s first approved gene therapy product “Gendicine”. The Company has achieved the following major milestones in the past (Table 1):

Dr. Zhaohui Peng is the founder and Chairman of SiBiono. He graduated from a medical university in China, served as director of a research institute at the South Medical University in Guangzhou and as a visiting professor at both the University of Chiba in Japan and the University of California. He also conducted research at two US biotech companies. Dr. Peng has devoted more than fifteen years to gene therapy research, development and commercialization. He led the research, development, industrialization and commercialization of Gendicine. He is also the main inventor of all patents in SiBiono.

Attribute to his great contribution to the gene therapy field by developing and launching the world's first gene medicine product - Gendicine®, Dr. Peng was honored with the “Gene Therapy Achievement Award” at the 2005 ISCGT Annual Conference in December 2005, the person of cover story on Forbes (Chinese Edition) entitled with the “Technology Pioneer in China” in October 2006, the “Certificate of Recognition” for outstanding achievement and innovative contribution to bioscience research and development by California State Assembly in November 2006, and the nominee of “CCTV 2006 People of the Year in China’s Economy” in November 2006.

On September 9, 2007, Benda achieved a great success in the national forum on "Gene Therapy for Tumors" sponsored by the Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences and the China Pharmaceutical Biotechnology Association. The forum is China’s large annual medical biotechnology conference run from September 7 - 10 in Qing Dao, Shandong Province. In conjunction with the national conference, SiBiono held a national forum discussing “Gene Therapy for Tumors”. Approximately 600 leading Chinese doctors attended SiBiono’s forum, representing 26 different provinces and over 200 Tier I Chinese hospitals (Tier I hospitals offer the best medical services in China; there are currently 775 Tier I hospitals in China).

The main purpose of the forum was to allow 15 national renowned medical experts to share their experiences in the effective application of Gendicine ® to maximize its treatment efficacy.

As of December 31, 2007, SiBiono shipped 10,652 of the 16,000 vials ordered. From January 1 to February 25, 2008, another 733 vials out of the 16,000 vials order had shipped. From February 26 to July 10, 2008, an additional 2,412 vials shipped. Accordingly, we have shipped and received payment for a total of 13,797 vials of the 16,000 vial order. The 16,000 vial order for Gendicine was ordered by various selling agents with average selling price RMB2,500 per vial.

In January 2008, our quality control department recognized that during the process of purification, one of the components of Gendicine did not fulfill the requirements of the internal quality control; therefore further purification was necessary. Gendicine is a gene therapy product which needs to undergo a series of internal quality control processes. Once the problem was located, our quality control and production department solved the issue immediately.

On May 19, 2008, SiBiono received an official notice from the PRC State of SFDA in which it mentioned that during the random inspection performed by the PRC State of SFDA on April 8 to April 10, 2008, the PRC State of SFDA discovered there were several production procedures that did not meet the requirement stated in GMP, thus it required SiBiono to perform necessary improvements in order to fulfill the GMP requirements and the PRC State of SFDA collected back the distributed GMP certificate until the necessary improvements being carried out and passed the examination that conducted by SFDA. On June 10, 2008, SiBiono received another official notice from Guangdong Province SFDA and they demanded the same requirements as stated in the official notice which issued by the PRC State of SFDA dated on May 19, 2008. On November 24, 2008, SiBiono received another official notice from Guangdong Province SFDA which mentioned that after the examination conducted by Shenzhen City SFDA, the Guangdong Province SFDA consent SiBiono to carry out production on a trial basis. It further required SiBiono to strictly follow the requirements of GMP to organize trail production and follow the procedures to apply for GMP Certificate verification. The management could not estimate the exact timing for obtaining the final approval on the GMP Certificate.

Commercial Bank Note

On August 14, 2007, Benda Ebei entered into a three year non-interest bearing commercial bank note issuable agreement with Shanghai Pudong Development Bank. The total commercial note issuable limit is Rmb 60 million; however 50% of the deposit has to be made to the bank in order to secure the issuance of the commercial bank note, thus the net available amount is Rmb 30 million. The repayment period of each commercial note payable is six months. If the net amount of each commercial bank note payable is not settled on the due date, the penalty will be the penalty rate of the PRC bank loan on a daily and compound basis.

The credit facility was originally guaranteed by SiBiono and secured by the buildings, machinery and equipment of Benda Ebei. The Sibiono guarantee may have been a violation of the terms of the convertible promissory notes entered into with certain accredited and institutional investors on April 5, 2007. However, on December 15, 2007, Benda Ebei received a consent letter from Pudong Bank that Pudong Bank agreed to cancel SiBiono’s guarantee toward this credit facility.

On January 21, 2008, Benda Ebei entered into a supplementary agreement with Shanghai Pudong Development Bank, to supplement the commercial bank note issuance agreement dated on August 14, 2007. According to this supplementary agreement, the credit facility is further secured by the buildings, machinery and equipment of Jiangling Benda.

As of December 31, 2008, Benda Ebei and Jiangling Benda deposited an amount of $4,859,346 in Shanghai Pudong Development Bank as deposit for the issuance of commercial bank notes. Such deposits will be released when the commercial bank notes are cleared. As of December 31, 2008, the balance of the commercial bank notes payable was $9,297,169. Thus the net commercial bank notes payable was $4,437,823 as of December 31, 2008.

EMPLOYEES

As of December 31, 2008, we had approximately 400 full-time employees, including 48 sales people, 19 technology and R&D staff, and 333 production staff and no part-time employees. Among our current employees are two Ph.D.s and 17 holders of master’s degrees. All executives have received master-degree level executive training and all members of our staff have undertaken GMP training.

We have a sales office in each of three cities that promote our branded medicines. As of December 31, 2008, approximately 18 people in our Central China Sales Office were located in Wuhan, and 16 people were in our Southern China Sales Office located in Shenzhen.

RISK FACTORS

An investment in our common stock involves investment risks and the possibility of the loss of an investor’s entire investment. A prospective investor should evaluate all information about us and the risk factors discussed below in relation to his financial circumstances before investing in us.

Risks Relating to Our Business

·	WE NEED TO MANAGE GROWTH IN OPERATIONS TO MAXIMIZE OUR POTENTIAL GROWTH AND ACHIEVE OUR EXPECTED REVENUES AND OUR FAILURE TO MANAGE GROWTH WILL CAUSE A DISRUPTION OF OUR OPERATIONS RESULTING IN THE FAILURE TO GENERATE REVENUE.

In order to maximize potential growth in our current and potential markets, we believe that we must expand our manufacturing and marketing operations. This expansion will place a significant strain on our management and our operational, accounting, and information systems. We expect that we will need to continue to improve our financial controls, operating procedures, and management information systems. We will also need to effectively train, motivate, and manage our employees. Our failure to manage our growth could disrupt our operations and ultimately prevent us from generating the revenues we expect.

In order to achieve the above mentioned targets, the general strategies of our company are to maintain and search for hard-working employees who have innovative initiatives; on the other hands, our company will also keep a close eye on expanding opportunities, for example, acquisition of state-owned enterprises.

·	WE CANNOT ASSURE YOU THAT OUR ORGANIC GROWTH STRATEGY WILL BE SUCCESSFUL WHICH MAY RESULT IN A NEGATIVE IMPACT ON OUR GROWTH, FINANCIAL CONDITION, RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND CASH FLOW.

One of our strategies is to grow organically through increasing the distribution and sales of our products by penetrating existing markets in PRC and entering new geographic markets in PRC as well as other parts of Asia and the United States. However, many obstacles to entering such new markets exist, including, but not limited to, international trade and tariff barriers, shipping and delivery costs, costs associated with marketing efforts abroad and maintaining attractive foreign exchange ratios. We cannot, therefore, assure you that we will be able to successfully overcome such obstacles and establish our products in any additional markets. Our inability to implement this organic growth strategy successfully may have a negative impact on our growth, future financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

·	WE CANNOT ASSURE YOU THAT OUR ACQUISITION GROWTH STRATEGY WILL BE SUCCESSFUL RESULTING IN OUR FAILURE TO MEET GROWTH AND REVENUE EXPECTATIONS.

In addition to our organic growth strategy, we also expect to grow through strategic acquisitions. We intend to pursue opportunities to acquire businesses in PRC that are complementary or related in product lines and business structure to us. We may not be able to locate suitable acquisition candidates at prices that we consider appropriate or to finance acquisitions on terms that are satisfactory to us. If we do identify an appropriate acquisition candidate, we may not be able to negotiate successfully the terms of an acquisition, or, if the acquisition occurs, integrate the acquired business into our existing business. Acquisitions of businesses or other material operations may require debt financing or additional equity financing, resulting in leverage or dilution of ownership. Integration of acquired business operations could disrupt our business by diverting management away from day-to-day operations. The difficulties of integration may be increased by the necessity of coordinating geographically dispersed organizations, integrating personnel with disparate business backgrounds and combining different corporate cultures. We also may not be able to maintain key employees or customers of an acquired business or realize cost efficiencies or synergies or other benefits we anticipated when selecting our acquisition candidates. In addition, we may need to record write-downs from future impairments of intangible assets, which could reduce our future reported earnings. At times, acquisition candidates may have liabilities or adverse operating issues that we fail to discover through due diligence prior to the acquisition. In addition to the above, acquisitions in PRC, including of state owned businesses, will be required to comply with laws of the People's Republic of China ("PRC"), to the extent applicable. There can be no assurance that any given proposed acquisition will be able to comply with PRC requirements, rules and/or regulations, or that we will successfully obtain governmental approvals which are necessary to consummate such acquisitions, to the extent required. If our acquisition strategy is unsuccessful, we will not grow our operations and revenues at the rate that we anticipate. If our acquisition strategy is not successful, our revenues and profit will be solely dependent upon our organic growth.

·	WE HAVE PREVIOUSLY HAD AN EXPLOSION AT OUR YIDU PLANT THAT RESULTED IN TWO DEATHS AND ANY SUCH OCURRENCE IN THE FUTURE CAN EXPOSE US TO LIABILITY FOR SUCH AN EVENT

On November 10, 2005, there was a small explosion in the Yidu plant resulting in the deaths of two of our workers. This tragic accident resulted from the violation of our operating procedures by one of the workers killed in the explosion. We paid RMB 260,000 (or $32,500) to each of the victims’ families in settlement of any compensation issues. On November 11, 2005, there was another explosion in the same factory resulting from a chemical reaction triggered by the prior explosion. Fortunately management had anticipated this incident and the plant had already been temporarily sealed so that no further injury occurred.

Following the events of November 10 and 11, 2005, Yidu plant was temporarily closed for approximately one month; during the one month plant shut down, we put in place very strict work safety procedures and revised the design of the relevant production process in order to avoid similar incidents in the future. We believe Benda is not liable for any further material liabilities arising from these explosions. Notwithstanding this fact, there can be a future explosion that may result in death or serious injury. If this occurs and in light of the fact that it previously occurred, may result in exposure to extensive liability to us.

Currently, we do not have any insurance policy for Yidu Benda due to the fact that it has been closed since January 2007 for improvement of our waste water treatment systems. However, once Yidu Benda resumes to its production, we will deploy appropriate insurance policy for the workers.

·	IF WE NEED ADDITIONAL CAPITAL TO FUND OUR GROWING OPERATIONS, WE MAY NOT BE ABLE TO OBTAIN SUFFICIENT CAPITAL AND MAY BE FORCED TO LIMIT THE SCOPE OF OUR OPERATIONS.

If adequate additional financing is not available on reasonable terms, we may not be able to undertake plant expansion, purchase additional machinery and purchase equipment for our operations and we would have to modify our business plans accordingly. There is no assurance that additional financing will be available to us.

In connection with our growth strategies, we may experience increased capital needs and accordingly, we may not have sufficient capital to fund our future operations without additional capital investments. Our capital needs will depend on numerous factors, including (i) our profitability; (ii) the release of competitive products by our competition; (iii) the level of our investment in research and development; and (iv) the amount of our capital expenditures, including acquisitions. We cannot assure you that we will be able to obtain capital in the future to meet our needs.

In recent years, the securities markets in the United States have experienced a high level of price and volume volatility, and the market price of securities of many companies have experienced wide fluctuations that have not necessarily been related to the operations, performances, underlying asset values or prospects of such companies. For these reasons, our shares of common stock can also be expected to be subject to volatility resulting from purely market forces over which we will have no control. If we need additional funding, the market fluctuations affect on our stock price could limit our ability to obtain equity financing.

If we cannot obtain additional funding, we may be required to: (i) limit our investments in research and development; (ii) limit our marketing efforts; and (iii) decrease or eliminate capital expenditures.

Such reductions could materially adversely affect our business and our ability to compete.

Even if we do find a source of additional capital, we may not be able to negotiate terms and conditions for receiving the additional capital that are acceptable to us. Any future capital investments could dilute or otherwise materially and adversely affect the holdings or rights of our existing shareholders. In addition, new equity or convertible debt securities issued by us to obtain financing could have rights, preferences and privileges senior to our common stock. We cannot give you any assurance that any additional financing will be available to us, or if available, will be on terms favorable to us.

·	WE MAY BE REQUIRED TO REPURCHASE SHARES OF OUR COMMON STOCK IN CONNECTION WITH THE FINANCIAL CONSULTANCY AGREEMENT AND TECHNICAL CONSULTANCY AGREEMENTS. THE REPURCHASE OF THESE SHARES MAY HAVE A NEGATIVE IMPACT ON OUR PROFITABILITY.

In connection with the Equity Transfer Agreements, we entered into a Financial Consultancy Agreement on April 5, 2007 with Super Pioneer for financial consultancy services rendered by Super Pioneer, and Technical Consultancy Agreements on June 11, 2007 with Yaojin Wang and Huimin Zhang for technical consultancy services rendered. Pursuant to these Agreements, we agreed to issue 2,100,000 shares of our common stock to Super Pioneer, 33,585 shares of our common stock to Yaojin Wang, and 55,975 shares of our common stock to Huimin Zhang within three months from the date of the agreements. The parties to the agreements agreed to lock up the shares for a period of twelve months from the date of the issuance of the shares (the “Lock-up Period”). Within three months from the Lock-up Period, in the event that the public trading price of our shares did not reach $3.60 per share and we are not listed in the capital market of NASDAQ or AMEX, Super Pioneer shall have the option to require us to redeem 1,960,000 shares of the stock owned by Super Pioneer and Yaojin Wang and Huimin Zhang shall have the option to require us to redeem the shares of the stock owned by Yaojin Wang and Huimin Zhang at a price of $3.60 per share. Such option shall expire within one month from the last date of the three month period. Therefore, as of July 5, 2008, we may be required to redeem 1,960,000 shares of common stock held by Super Pioneer at a price of $3.60 per share for a total of $7,560,000. As of September 11, 2008, we may be required to redeem the 33,585 shares of our common stock held by Yaojin Wang at $3.60 per share for a total of $120,906 and the 55,975 shares held by Huimin Zhang at $3.60 per share for a total of $201,510.. According to the signed agreements, the redemption would have been required to be performed in September 2008. However, we have obtained an oral consent from Super Pioneer, Wang and Zhang that the redemption shall be deferred to the end of 2009. As of April 14, 2009, the last closing bid price of our common stock was $.025. If we would be required to redeem the shares of our common stock a price of $3.60 per share, we will not have these funds to devote to our operations and could have a negative impact on our profitability.

JIANGLING BENDA AND YIDU BENDA CURRENTLY ARE ENTITLED TO A BENEFICIAL TAX EXEMPTION FOR A FIVE YEAR PERIOD; HOWEVER, SUCH TAX EXEMPTION MAY BE INTERPRETED TO BE NOT IN COMPLIANCE WITH PRC TAX LAWS IN THE FUTURE CAUSING US TO SET ASIDE CERTAIN CONTINGENCY FUNDS FOR DEALING WITH POTENTIAL RETROSPECTIVE TAX LIABILITIES.

Jiangling Benda and Yidu Benda are entitled to enjoy the “Two exemption Three half” tax holiday based on the local government’s policy to encourage outside investment into the locality. However, the definition of the “Two exemption Three half” policy defined by Yidu City and Jiangling County’s governments is different from the usual understanding of the term. According to PRC tax laws, “Two exemption Three half” policy means foreign investment enterprises including Benda Ebei may enjoy an exemption from corporate income tax for 2 years starting from its first profitable year, followed by 3 years at a rate that is one half of the regular rate for corporate income tax. However, in the documents issued by Yidu City and Jiangling County’s governments, the term means that an outside enterprise can enjoy the “two exemption three half” privilege treatment only with respect to the part allotted to the local government . According to our Chinese legal counsel, under current PRC tax laws, most enterprises are required to pay corporate income tax at a rate of 33% of its income before tax, of which, about 90.91% (30% of the corporate income) is paid over to the Central government, only about 9.09% (3% of the corporate incomes) is reserved for the local government. Accordingly, there is a risk that the local government may only be able to dispose of the “9.09% (3%)” reserved for the local government and Jiangling Benda and Yidu Benda actually would receive much less preferential treatment than a foreign investment enterprise could enjoy.

The beneficial tax exemption of Jiangling Benda and Yidu Benda was started in the year of 2005, and they would subject to corporate income tax rate 18% starting from the year of 2007 and they would subject to corporate income tax at 25%, full income tax rate, according to the new PRC corporate income tax with the effective date January 1, 2008.

If Jiangling Benda and Yidu Benda could not have any beneficial tax exemption, the tax contingency, at full rate 25%, would be as follows:

a)	For the year of 2008: Jiangling Benda: Nil; Yidu Benda: Nil;

b)	For the year of 2007: Jiangling Benda: Nil; Yidu Benda: Nil.

As to the tax treatment promised by local governments to purely domestic enterprises, i.e., Jiangling Benda and Yidu Benda, invested by non-local (but not foreign) investors under the so called preferential policy announced by local governments, our consultation with PRC certified public accountants and lawyers, is that the above policy is not compliant with the PRC laws. Even though such practice exists in many areas across the country, the policy faces the risk of being ruled illegal at any time for non-compliance with relevant laws. In this event, there is a risk that we might be assessed retrospective tax liabilities.

·	WE MAY HAVE DIFFICULTY DEFENDING OUR INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS FROM INFRINGEMENT RESULTING IN LAWSUITS REQUIRING US TO DEVOTE FINANCIAL AND MANAGEMENT RESOURCES THAT WOULD HAVE A NEGATIVE IMPACT ON OUR OPERATING RESULTS.

We regard our service marks, trademarks, trade secrets, patents and similar intellectual property as critical to our success. We rely on trademark, patent and trade secret law, as well as confidentiality and license agreements with certain of our employees, customers and others to protect our proprietary rights. We have received trademark and patent protection for certain of our products in the People's Republic of China. No assurance can be given that our patents and licenses will not be challenged, invalidated, infringed or circumvented, or that our intellectual property rights will provide competitive advantages to us. There can be no assurance that we will be able to obtain a license from a third-party technology that we may need to conduct our business or that such technology can be licensed at a reasonable cost.

Presently, all of our products are sold to clients in PRC. To date, no trademark or patent filings have been made other than in PRC. To the extent that we market our products in other countries, we may have to take additional action to protect our intellectual property. The measures we take to protect our proprietary rights may be inadequate and we cannot give you any assurance that our competitors will not independently develop formulations and processes that are substantially equivalent or superior to our own or copy our products.

Currently, the State Food and Drug Administration (“SFDA”) does not automatically stay drug registration approval upon initiation of an infringement lawsuit by a third party. At present, we must wait until a copycat manufacturer has received marketing approval from SFDA before we can bring an infringement lawsuit. Furthermore, Chinese courts have been hesitant to issue preliminary injunctions to suspend sales until a final judgment is issued in the lawsuit. Our sales could be lowered were a competitor to infringe our intellectual property rights by marketing one or more versions of SFDA-approved drugs proprietary to us, such as the Qiweiben capsule, until we can curtail such infringement through legal action. Pursuing infringement lawsuits would require us to devote financial and management resources that could impact the results of our operations.

·	WE DEPEND ON THE SUPPLY OF RAW MATERIALS, AND ANY ADVERSE CHANGES IN SUCH INTENSE COMPETITION FROM EXISTING AND NEW ENTITIES MAY ADVERSELY AFFECT OUR REVENUES AND PROFITABILITY.

We compete with other companies, many of whom are developing or can be expected to develop products similar to ours. Our markets are large with many competitors. The market for pharmaceutical raw materials manufacturing is particularly competitive. In this market, our competitors include a number of contract manufacturers and, from time to time, demand for particular products may be greatly exceeded by production capacity. Many of our competitors are more established than we are, and have significantly greater financial, technical, marketing and other resources than us. Some of our competitors may have greater name recognition and a larger customer base. These competitors may be able to respond more quickly to new or changing opportunities and customer requirements and may be able to undertake more extensive promotional activities, offer more attractive terms to customers, and adopt more aggressive pricing policies. We intend to create greater brand awareness for our brand name so that we can successfully compete with our competitors. We cannot assure you that we will be able to compete effectively with current or future competitors or that the competitive pressures we face will not harm our business.

Our company does not depend on any sole source suppliers, since the raw materials market is opened in the sense that we could have plenty of choices of the suppliers. We only choose those suppliers who could offer better terms to us and having a long term co-operation relationship.

·	OUR PRODUCTS AND THE PROCESSES COULD EXPOSE US TO SUBSTANTIAL PRODUCT LIABILITY CLAIMS WHICH WILL NEGATIVELY IMPACT OUR PROFITABILITY.

We face an inherent business risk of exposure to product liability claims in the event that the use of our products is alleged to have resulted in adverse side effects. Side effects or marketing or manufacturing problems pertaining to any of our products could result in product liability claims or adverse publicity. These risks will exist for those products in clinical development and with respect to those products that have received regulatory approval for commercial sale. We do not have insurance to cover any potential product liability claims. To date, we have not experienced any product liability claims. However, that does not mean that we will not have any such claims with respect to our products in the future which will negatively impact our profitability.

·	WE DEPEND ON OUR KEY MANAGEMENT PERSONNEL AND THE LOSS OF THEIR SERVICES COULD ADVERSELY AFFECT OUR BUSINESS.

We place substantial reliance upon the efforts and abilities of our executive officers, Yiqing Wan, our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, Wei Xu, our Vice President of Operations, Hui Long, our Vice President of Technology. We have entered into a five year employment contract with Mr. Wan and three year contracts with Ms. Xu. As per his contract, Mr. Wan is to receive salary of $160,000 per year, Ms. Xu is to receive $100,000, with the possibility of a discretionary bonus as determined by the Board of Directors. Each employment contract immediately terminates upon death or disability, and may be terminated by the Company either with or without cause after 30 days notice, or terminated by the officer for good reason with 60 days notice. We are not currently aware of the plans of any key employees to retire or leave the Company. However, the loss of the services of any of our executive officers could have a material adverse effect on our business, operations, revenues or prospects. We do not maintain key man life insurance on the lives of these individuals.

·	MR. YIQING WAN AND MS. WEI XU ARE HUSBAND AND WIFE. THE SEPARATION OR DIVORCE OF THE COUPLE IN THE FUTURE COULD ADVERSELY AFFECT OUR BUSINESS.

Mr. Yiqing Wan, our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, and Ms. Wei Xu, Vice President of Operations, are married. They are two of our principal executives and are a vital part of our operations. If they were to become separated or divorced and could not amicably work with each other, one of them may decide to cease his or her employment with us. Alternatively, their work performance may not be satisfactory if they become preoccupied with such negative situation. In both cases, our operations could be negatively affected by our production resulting in a decrease in revenues.

·	MANAGEMENT EXERCISES SIGNIFICANT CONTROL OVER MATTERS REQUIRING SHAREHOLDER APPROVAL WHICH MAY RESULT IN THE DELAY OR PREVENTION OF A CHANGE IN OUR CONTROL.

Mr. Yiqing Wan, our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, and Ms. Wei Xu, our Vice President of Operations, each have a 50% equity ownership in XIA Pharmaceutical Inc. Through their joint ownership in XIA Pharmaceutical, Inc., Mr. Wan and Ms. Xu currently share voting power equal to approximately 27.91% of our voting securities. When combined with the common stock ownership of our other officers and directors, management has combined voting power in our Company equal to approximately 29.45% of our voting securities. As a result, management through such stock ownership exercises significant control over all matters requiring shareholder approval, including the election of directors and approval of significant corporate transactions. This concentration of ownership in management may also have the effect of delaying or preventing a change in control of us that may be otherwise viewed as beneficial by shareholders other than management.

·	INTERNATIONAL OPERATIONS REQUIRE US TO COMPLY WITH A NUMBER OF UNITED STATES AND INTERNATIONAL REGULATIONS WHICH MAY HAVE A NEGATIVE IMPACT ON OUR GROWTH.

We are required to comply with a number of international regulations in countries outside of the United States. In addition, we must comply with the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, or FCPA, which prohibits U.S. companies or their agents and employees from providing anything of value to a foreign official for the purposes of influencing any act or decision of these individuals in their official capacity to help obtain or retain business, direct business to any person or corporate entity or obtain any unfair advantage. Any failure by us to adopt appropriate compliance procedures and ensure that our employees and agents comply with the FCPA and applicable laws and regulations in foreign jurisdictions could result in substantial penalties and/or restrictions in our ability to conduct business in certain foreign jurisdictions. We believe we are currently in compliance with such regulations. The U.S. Department of The Treasury's Office of Foreign Asset Control, or OFAC, administers and enforces economic and trade sanctions against targeted foreign countries, entities and individuals based on U.S. foreign policy and national security goals. As a result, we are restricted from entering into transactions with certain targeted foreign countries, entities and individuals except as permitted by OFAC which may reduce our future growth.

·	WE MAY INCUR SIGNIFICANT COSTS TO ENSURE COMPLIANCE WITH UNITED STATES CORPORATE GOVERNANCE AND ACCOUNTING REQUIREMENTS.

We may incur significant costs associated with our public company reporting requirements, costs associated with newly applicable corporate governance requirements, including requirements under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and other rules implemented by the Securities and Exchange Commission. We expect all of these applicable rules and regulations to significantly increase our legal and financial compliance costs and to make some activities more time consuming and costly. We also expect that these applicable rules and regulations may make it more difficult and more expensive for us to obtain director and officer liability insurance and we may be required to accept reduced policy limits and coverage or incur substantially higher costs to obtain the same or similar coverage. As a result, it may be more difficult for us to attract and retain qualified individuals to serve on our board of directors or as executive officers. We are currently evaluating and monitoring developments with respect to these newly applicable rules, and we cannot predict or estimate the amount of additional costs we may incur or the timing of such costs.

·	WE MAY NOT BE ABLE TO MEET THE ACCELERATED FILING AND INTERNAL CONTROL REPORTING REQUIREMENTS IMPOSED BY THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION RESULTING IN A POSSIBLE DECLINE IN THE PRICE OF OUR COMMON STOCK AND OUR INABILITY TO OBTAIN FUTURE FINANCING.

As directed by Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, the Securities and Exchange Commission adopted rules requiring each public company to include a report of management on the company's internal controls over financial reporting in its annual reports. In addition, the independent registered public accounting firm auditing a company's financial statements must also attest to and report on management's assessment of the effectiveness of the company's internal controls over financial reporting as well as the operating effectiveness of the company's internal controls. We will not be subject to these requirements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2007.

While we expect to expend significant resources in developing the necessary documentation and testing procedures required by Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, there is a risk that we may not be able to comply timely with all of the requirements imposed by this rule. In the event that we are unable to receive a positive attestation from our independent registered public accounting firm with respect to our internal controls, investors and others may lose confidence in the reliability of our financial statements and our stock price and ability to obtain equity or debt financing as needed could suffer.

In addition, in the event that our independent registered public accounting firm is unable to rely on our internal controls in connection with its audit of our financial statements, and in the further event that it is unable to devise alternative procedures in order to satisfy itself as to the material accuracy of our financial statements and related disclosures, it is possible that we would be unable to file our Annual Report on Form 10-K with the Securities and Exchange Commission, which could also adversely affect the market price of our common stock and our ability to secure additional financing as needed.

Risks Relating to the People's Republic of China

·	THE SALES PRICES OF SOME MEDICINES ARE CURRENTLY CONTROLLED BY THE CHINESE GOVERNMENT AND THAT MAY ADVERSELY AFFECT OUR BUSINESS.

Prices paid by end consumers for many of our medicines are regulated by PRC's State Development and Reform Commission. PRC justifies its need to control the drug prices on the basis that, at present, only workers at state or private companies have health insurance. About 900 million rural Chinese people and 35 million urban unemployed Chinese people lack insurance coverage and cannot afford expensive drugs. Our future profitability might suffer if a significant portion of our revenues were to be derived from products whose final selling prices were state-controlled and if those prices were held at levels close to or below our cost of sales.

·	SALES OF OUR PRODUCTS COULD BE HARMED BY THE WIDESPREAD PRESENCE OF COUNTERFEIT MEDICATION IN PRC NEGATIVELY IMPACTING OUR PROFITABILITY.

Chinese counterfeiting of pharmaceuticals and other products affecting public health has grown in tandem with counterfeiting and piracy of goods such as brand-name clothing, compact discs and computer software. Exact data are impossible to collect, but the FBI believes that more than half of the pharmaceuticals sold in PRC are counterfeit. Examples of the seriousness of the problem include: six months after Viagra was introduced in 2002, state media reported that some 90 percent of little blue pills sold in Shanghai were counterfeit; and 192,000 Chinese patients were reported to have died in 2001 from fake drugs. Counterfeit products shrink markets for legitimate goods. This situation affects Benda and other major domestic and foreign drug manufacturers in PRC, especially for products marketed through the OTC rather than hospital channel. However, we believe the Chinese authorities are becoming increasingly vigilant against counterfeiting because in 2001 the authorities closed 1,300 factories while investigating 480,000 cases of counterfeit drugs. Currently, active pharmaceutical ingredients are governed only by chemical regulations. We believe that a major step towards controlling the problem would be taken should the SFDA be given oversight over PRC’s bulk chemicals producers. However, our ability to increase sales as rapidly as we would like, and our profitability, could be affected if this problem persists or worsens.

·	THERE COULD BE CHANGES IN GOVERNMENT REGULATIONS TOWARDS THE PHARMACEUTICAL AND HEALTH SUPPLEMENT INDUSTRIES THAT MAY ADVERSELY AFFECT OUR GROWTH AND PROFITABILITY.

The manufacture and sale of APIs in the PRC is heavily regulated by many state, provincial and local authorities. These regulations have significantly increased the difficulty and costs involved in obtaining and maintaining regulatory approvals for marketing new and existing products. Our future growth and profitability depend to a large extent on our ability to obtain regulatory approvals.

The SFDA of PRC recently implemented new guidelines for licensing of APIs. All existing manufacturers with licenses were required to apply for GMP certifications by June 30, 2004, and to receive approvals by December 31, 2004. We have received certification for our Benda Ebei injection vial production facilities and expect to receive certifications for the remaining plant that require such certification in 2008. However, should we fail to receive or maintain the GMP certifications under the new guidelines in the future; our businesses would be materially and adversely affected.

Moreover, the laws and regulations regarding acquisitions of the pharmaceutical industry in the PRC may also change and may significantly impact our ability to grow through acquisitions.

·	CERTAIN POLITICAL AND ECONOMIC CONSIDERATIONS RELATING TO THE PRC COULD ADVERSELY AFFECT OUR COMPANY.

The PRC is transitioning from a planned economy to a market economy. While the PRC government has pursued economic reforms since its adoption of the open-door policy in 1978, a large portion of the PRC economy is still operating under five-year plans and annual state plans. Through these plans and other economic measures, such as control on foreign exchange, taxation and restrictions on foreign participation in the domestic market of various industries, the PRC government exerts considerable direct and indirect influence on the economy. Many of the economic reforms carried out by the PRC government are unprecedented or experimental, and are expected to be refined and improved. Other political, economic and social factors can also lead to further readjustment of such reforms. This refining and readjustment process may not necessarily have a positive effect on our operations or future business development. Our operating results may be adversely affected by changes in the PRC's economic and social conditions as well as by changes in the policies of the PRC government, such as changes in laws and regulations (or the official interpretation thereof), measures which may be introduced to control inflation, changes in the interest rate or method of taxation, and the imposition of additional restrictions on currency conversion.

·	THE RECENT NATURE AND UNCERTAIN APPLICATION OF MANY PRC LAWS APPLICABLE TO US CREATE AN UNCERTAIN ENVIRONMENT FOR BUSINESS OPERATIONS AND THEY COULD HAVE A NEGATIVE EFFECT ON US.

The PRC legal system is a civil law system. Unlike the common law system, the civil law system is based on written statutes in which decided legal cases have little value as precedents. In 1979, the PRC began to promulgate a comprehensive system of laws and has since introduced many laws and regulations to provide general guidance on economic and business practices in the PRC and to regulate foreign investment. Progress has been made in the promulgation of laws and regulations dealing with economic matters such as corporate organization and governance, foreign investment, commerce, taxation and trade. The promulgation of new laws, changes of existing laws and the abrogation of local regulations by national laws could have a negative impact on our business and business prospects.

Since all the Company’s operation plants are all located in China, therefore we have to comply with those relevant PRC laws and regulations. The changes of those relevant PRC laws and regulations do affect our operation, for example, due to the changes of the relevant regulations of SFDA in PRC, it may take more time to approve the application of new drug certificate so that the forecasted operation plan for such particular drug product would be delayed and thus the potential earning of revenue and net profit would be affectee. In this aspect, the new drug certificate application progresses of Qiweiben Capsule and Yan Long Anti-cancer Oral Liquid are delayed. Furthermore, due to the changes of the requirements of the Environmental PRC agencies, Yidu Benda’s operation was ceased since January 2007, therefore the company needs to re-design the production facilities so the process of re-opening is also delayed. As these laws, regulations and legal requirements are relatively recent, their interpretation and enforcement involve significant uncertainty.

THE APPROVAL OF THE CHINESE SECURITIES REGULATORY COMMISSION (“CRSC”) MAY BE REQUIRED IN CONNECTION WITH THIS OFFERING UNDER A RECENTLY ADOPTED PRC REGULATION; SINCE THIS OFFERING DID NOT COMMENCE PRIOR TO THE EFFECTIVE DATE OF THE REGULATION, WE MAY BE REQUIRED TO OBTAIN CRSC APPROVAL FOR THIS OFFERING AND WE CAN NOT CURRENTLY PREDICT THE CONSEQUENCES OF ANY FAILURE TO OBTAIN SUCH APPROVAL.

On August 8, 2006, six PRC regulatory agencies, including the Chinese Securities Regulatory Commission, or CSRC, promulgated a regulation that became effective on September 8, 2006. This regulation, among other things, purports to require offshore special purpose vehicles, or SPVs, formed for listing purposes through acquisitions of PRC domestic companies and controlled by PRC individuals, such as our company, to obtain the approval of the CSRC prior to publicly listing their securities on an overseas stock exchange. While the application of this new regulation is not yet clear, we believe, based on the advice of our PRC counsel, that CSRC approval is not required if trading of our shares of common stock commenced prior to the effective date of the regulation. Although the CSRC is expected to promulgate formal implementing rules and/or regulations and possibly other clarifications, the procedures, criteria and timing for obtaining any required CSRC approval have not been established and it is unclear when these will be established. Therefore, since this offering did not commence prior to the effective date of the regulation and our shares of common stock did not commence trading prior to the effective date of the regulation, we may be required to obtain CSRC approval for this offering and we cannot currently predict the criteria, timing or procedures for obtaining the CSRC approval or the consequences of any failure to obtain such approval.

RECENT PRC REGULATIONS RELATING TO THE ESTABLISHMENT OF OFFSHORE SPECIAL PURPOSE COMPANIES BY PRC RESIDENTS MAY SUBJECT OUR PRC RESIDENT SHAREHOLDERS TO PERSONAL LIABILITY AND LIMIT OUR ABILITY TO INJECT CAPITAL INTO OUR PRC SUBSIDIARIES, LIMIT OUR PRC SUBSIDIARIES’ ABILITY TO DISTRIBUTE PROFITS TO US, OR OTHERWISE ADVERSELY AFFECT US.

The State Administration of Foreign Exchange (“SAFE”) was one of six PRC regulatory agencies promulgating a regulation that became effective on September 8, 2006 requiring PRC residents to register with the local SAFE branch before establishing or controlling any company outside of China for the purpose of capital financing with assets or equities of PRC companies, referred to in the notice as an “offshore special purpose company.” PRC residents that are shareholders of offshore special purpose companies established before November 1, 2005 were required to register with the local SAFE branch before March 31, 2006. Our current beneficial owners who are PRC residents have registered with the local SAFE branch as required under the SAFE notice. The failure of these beneficial owners to timely amend their SAFE registrations pursuant to the SAFE notice or the failure of future beneficial owners of our company who are PRC residents to comply with the registration procedures set forth in the SAFE notice may subject such beneficial owners to fines and legal sanctions and may also limit our ability to contribute additional capital into our PRC subsidiaries, limit our PRC subsidiaries’ ability to distribute dividends to our company or otherwise adversely affect our business.

Other Risks

·	CURRENCY CONVERSION AND EXCHANGE RATE VOLATILITY COULD ADVERSELY AFFECT OUR FINANCIAL CONDITION.

The PRC government imposes control over the conversion of Renminbi into foreign currencies. Under the current unified floating exchange rate system, the People's Bank of China publishes an exchange rate, which we refer to as the PBOC exchange rate, based on the previous day's dealings in the inter-bank foreign exchange market. Financial institutions authorized to deal in foreign currency may enter into foreign exchange transactions at exchange rates within an authorized range above or below the PBOC exchange rate according to market conditions.

Pursuant to the Foreign Exchange Control Regulations of the PRC issued by the State Council which came into effect on April 1, 1996, and the Regulations on the Administration of Foreign Exchange Settlement, Sale and Payment of the PRC which came into effect on July 1, 1996, regarding foreign exchange control, conversion of Renminbi into foreign exchange by Foreign Investment Enterprises, or FIEs, for use on current account items, including the distribution of dividends and profits to foreign investors, is permissible. FIEs are permitted to convert their after-tax dividends and profits to foreign exchange and remit such foreign exchange to their foreign exchange bank accounts in the PRC. Conversion of Renminbi into foreign currencies for capital account items, including direct investment, loans, and security investment, is still under certain restrictions. On January 14, 1997, the State Council amended the Foreign Exchange Control Regulations and added, among other things, an important provision, which provides that the PRC government shall not impose restrictions on recurring international payments and transfers under current account items.

Enterprises in the PRC (including FIEs) which require foreign exchange for transactions relating to current account items, may, without approval of the State Administration of Foreign Exchange, or SAFE, effect payment from their foreign exchange account or convert and pay at the designated foreign exchange banks by providing valid receipts and proofs.

Convertibility of foreign exchange in respect of capital account items, such as direct investment and capital contribution, is still subject to certain restrictions, and prior approval from the SAFE or its relevant branches must be sought.

Furthermore, the Renminbi is not freely convertible into foreign currencies nor can freely remitted abroad. Under the PRC’s Foreign Exchange Control Regulations and the Administration of Settlement, Sales and Payment of Foreign Exchange Regulations, foreign invested enterprises are permitted either to repatriate or distribute its profits or dividends in foreign currencies out of its foreign exchange accounts, or exchange Renminbi for foreign currencies through banks authorized to conduct foreign exchange business. The conversion of Renminbi into foreign exchange by foreign invested enterprises for recurring items, including the distribution of dividends to foreign investors, is permissible. The conversion of Reminbi into foreign currencies for capital items, such as direct investment, loans and security investment, is subject, however, to more stringent controls.

Since 1994, the exchange rate for Renminbi against the United States dollar has remained relatively stable, most of the time in the region of approximately RMB8.28 to $1.00. However, in 2005, the Chinese government announced that it would begin pegging the exchange rate of the Chinese Renminbi against a number of currencies, rather than just the U.S. dollar and, the exchange rate for the Renminbi against the U.S. dollar became RMB8.02 to $1.00. As our operations are primarily in PRC, any significant revaluation or devaluation of the Chinese Renminbi may materially and adversely affect our cash flows, revenues and financial condition. We may not be able to hedge effectively against in any such case. For example, to the extent that we need to convert United States dollars into Chinese Renminbi for our operations, appreciation of this currency against the United States dollar could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Conversely, if we decide to convert Chinese Renminbi into United States dollars for other business purposes and the United States dollar appreciates against this currency, the United States dollar equivalent of the Chinese Renminbi we convert would be reduced. There can be no assurance that future movements in the exchange rate of Renminbi and other currencies will not have an adverse effect on our financial condition. Benda’s operating companies are FIEs to which the Foreign Exchange Control Regulations are applicable. There can be no assurance that we will be able to obtain sufficient foreign exchange to pay dividends or satisfy other foreign exchange requirements in the future.

·	IT MAY BE DIFFICULT TO AFFECT SERVICE OF PROCESS AND ENFORCEMENT OF LEGAL JUDGMENTS UPON OUR COMPANY AND OUR OFFICERS AND DIRECTORS BECAUSE THEY RESIDE OUTSIDE THE UNITED STATES.

As our operations are presently based in PRC and a majority of our directors and all of our officers reside in PRC, service of process on our company and such directors and officers may be difficult to effect within the United States. Also, our main assets are located in PRC and any judgment obtained in the United States against us may not be enforceable outside the United States.

·	ANY FUTURE OUTBREAK OF AVIAN INFLUENZA, OR THE ASIAN BIRD FLU, OR ANY OTHER EPIDEMIC IN PRC COULD HAVE A MATERIAL ADVERSE EFFECT ON OUR BUSINESS OPERATIONS, FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

Since mid-December 2003, a number of Asian countries have reported outbreaks of highly pathogenic avian influenza in chickens and ducks. Since all of our operations are in PRC, an outbreak of the Asian Bird Flu in PRC in the future may disrupt our business operations and have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations. For example, a new outbreak of Asian Bird Flu, or any other epidemic, may reduce the level of economic activity in affected areas, which may lead to a reduction in our revenue if our clients cancel existing contracts or defer future expenditures. In addition, health or other government regulations may require temporary closure of our offices, or the offices of our customers or partners, which will severely disrupt our business operations and have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.

·	OUR BUSINESS MAY BE AFFECTED BY UNEXPECTED CHANGES IN REGULATORY REQUIREMENTS IN THE JURISDICTIONS IN WHICH WE OPERATE.

We are subject to many general regulations governing business entities and their behavior in PRC and in other jurisdictions in which we have, or plan to have, operations and market our products. In particular, we are subject to laws and regulations covering food, dietary supplements and APIs. Such regulations typically deal with licensing, approvals and permits. Any change in product licensing may make our products more or less available on the market. Such changes may have a positive or negative impact on the sale of our products and may directly impact the associated costs in compliance and our operational and financial viability. Such regulatory environment also covers any existing or potential trade barriers in the form of import tariff and taxes that may make it difficult for us to import our products to certain countries and regions, such as Hong Kong, which would limit our international expansion.

·	WE MAY EXPERIENCE CURRENCY FLUCTUATION AND LONGER EXCHANGE RATE PAYMENT CYCLES WHICH WILL NEGATIVELY AFFECT THE COSTS OF OUR PRODUCTS SOLD AND THE VALUE OF OUR LOCAL CURRENCY PROFITS.

The local currencies in the countries in which we sell our products may fluctuate in value in relation to other currencies. Such fluctuations may affect the costs of our products sold and the value of our local currency profits. While we are not conducting any meaningful operations in countries other than PRC at the present time, we may expand to other countries and may then have an increased risk of exposure of our business to currency fluctuation.

·	SINCE MOST OF OUR ASSETS ARE LOCATED IN PRC, ANY DIVIDENDS OF PROCEEDS FROM LIQUIDATION IS SUBJECT TO THE APPROVAL OF THE RELEVANT CHINESE GOVERNMENT AGENCIES.

Our assets are predominantly located inside PRC. Under the laws governing foreign invested enterprises in PRC, dividend distribution and liquidation are allowed but subject to special procedures under the relevant laws and rules. Any dividend payment will be subject to the decision of the board of directors and subject to foreign exchange rules governing such repatriation. Any liquidation is subject to the relevant government agency's approval and supervision as well as the foreign exchange control. This may generate additional risk for our investors in case of dividend payment and liquidation.

Risks Associated with Our Shares of Common Stock

·	OUR SHARES OF COMMON STOCK ARE VERY THINLY TRADED, AND THE PRICE MAY NOT REFLECT OUR VALUE AND THERE CAN BE NO ASSURANCE THAT THERE WILL BE AN ACTIVE MARKET FOR OUR SHARES OF COMMON STOCK EITHER NOW OR IN THE FUTURE.

Our shares of common stock are very thinly traded, and the price if traded may not reflect our value. There can be no assurance that there will be an active market for our shares of common stock either now or in the future. The market liquidity will be dependent on the perception of our operating business and any steps that our management might take to bring us to the awareness of investors. There can be no assurance given that there will be any awareness generated. Consequently, investors may not be able to liquidate their investment or liquidate it at a price that reflects the value of the business. If a more active market should develop, the price may be highly volatile. Because there may be a low price for our shares of common stock, many brokerage firms may not be willing to effect transactions in the securities. Even if an investor finds a broker willing to effect a transaction in the shares of our common stock, the combination of brokerage commissions, transfer fees, taxes, if any, and any other selling costs may exceed the selling price. Further, many lending institutions will not permit the use of such shares of common stock as collateral for any loans.

Certain of our stockholders have been granted registration rights which entitle them to require us to register their shares of our common stock at the same time that the shares of our common stock are being registered. The inclusion of this additional stock in the registration may negatively affect the resale price that may be obtained for the shares of our common stock when they are registered.

·	WE ARE SUBJECT TO THE PENNY STOCK RULES WHICH WILL MAKE THE SHARES OF OUR COMMON STOCK MORE DIFFICULT TO SELL.

We are subject to the SEC’s “penny stock” rules as our shares of common stock sell below $5.00 per share. Penny stocks generally are equity securities with a price of less than $5.00. The penny stock rules require broker-dealers to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document prepared by the SEC which provides information about penny stocks and the nature and level of risks in the penny stock market. The broker-dealer must also provide the customer with current bid and offer quotations for the penny stock, the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson, and monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer's account. The bid and offer quotations, and the broker-dealer and salesperson compensation information must be given to the customer orally or in writing prior to completing the transaction and must be given to the customer in writing before or with the customer's confirmation.

In addition, the penny stock rules require that prior to a transaction, 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 agreement to the transaction. The penny stock rules are burdensome and may reduce purchases of any offerings and reduce the trading activity for shares of our common stock. As long as our shares of common stock are subject to the penny stock rules, the holders of such shares of common stock may find it more difficult to sell their securities.

·	SALES OF OUR CURRENTLY ISSUED AND OUTSTANDING STOCK MAY BECOME FREELY TRADABLE PURSUANT TO RULE 144 AND MAY DILUTE THE MARKET FOR YOUR SHARES AND HAVE A DEPRESSIVE EFFECT ON THE PRICE OF THE SHARES OF OUR COMMON STOCK.

A substantial majority of our outstanding shares of common stock are "restricted securities" within the meaning of Rule 144 under the Securities Act. As restricted shares, these shares may be resold only pursuant to an effective registration statement or under the requirements of Rule 144 or other applicable exemptions from registration under the Act and as required under applicable state securities laws. Rule 144 provides in essence that a non-affiliate person who has held restricted securities for a period of at least six months may, under certain conditions, sell, in brokerage transactions, their shares of common stock. A sale under Rule 144 or under any other exemption from the Act, if available, or pursuant to subsequent registrations of our shares of common stock, may have a depressive effect upon the price of our shares of common stock in any active market that may develop.

·	THERE CAN BE NO ASSURANCE THAT THE PRICE OF OUR SHARES OF COMMON STOCK WILL MEET OR EXCEED THE EXERCISE PRICE OF THE WARRANTS DURING THE EXERCISE PERIOD OR AT ANY TIME THEREAFTER.

Unless the price of our shares of Common Stock equals or exceeds the exercise price of the Warrants at the time of such exercise, an Investor may not be able to exercise his Warrants profitably. There can be no assurance that the price of our shares of Common Stock will meet or exceed the exercise price of the Warrants during the exercise period or at any time thereafter. Accordingly, should an Investor choose to exercise the Warrants, the value of our shares of Common Stock purchased upon such exercise may be less than the Warrant exercise price the Investor pays. The Warrant may be worthless and expire unexercised if the price of our shares of Common Stock does not exceed the Warrant exercise price. Please see “Description of Securities - Warrants” for additional information as to the terms of the Warrants.

·	MANAGEMENT EXERCISES SIGNIFICANT CONTROL OVER MATTERS REQUIRING SHAREHOLDER APPROVAL AND INVESTORS WILL HAVE CONTROL OVER COMPANY ACTIONS.

As a practical matter, our officers and directors will have control of us and will be able to assert significant influence over the election of directors and other matters presented for a vote of stockholders. Even after the Offering is complete, a majority of our shares of Common Stock will be owned by Mr. Yiqing Wan and Ms. Wei Xu, husband and wife. Through their concentration of voting power, they could delay, deter or prevent a change in our control or other business combinations that might otherwise be beneficial to the other stockholders. In deciding how to vote on such matters, Mr. Yiqing Wan and Ms. Wei Xu may be influenced by interests that conflict with other stockholders’ interests. Investors will not have a voice in management decisions and will exercise very little control. In the event that the requisite approval of stockholders is obtained, dissenting or non-participating stockholders generally would be bound by such vote. Accordingly, Offerees should not subscribe for Units in this Offering unless they are willing to entrust all aspects of operational control to our current management team. Further, Investors in the Offering will rely on our management team to use the proceeds as they determine to be in our best interest. Although management has indicated its current intended uses, those may be changed upon their decision.

In addition, our existing officers, directors, affiliates and other insiders are permitted to purchase Units in the Offering. If they do so, their interest in us after the acquisition may be even greater.

·	INVESTORS MAY EXPERIENCE IMMEDIATE AND SUBSTANTIAL DILUTION IN NET TANGIBLE BOOK VALUE PER SHARE OF OUR COMMON STOCK IF THEY ELECT TO EXERCISE THE WARRANTS.

Investors may experience immediate and substantial dilution in net tangible book value per share of our common stock if they elect to exercise the Warrants. The exercise price of the Warrants may be substantially higher than the net tangible book value per share. Accordingly, if Investors exercise the Warrants, they will likely experience immediate and substantial dilution in the net tangible book value per share and further dilution if we issue shares of our common stock in the future. As a result of this dilution, in the event of our subsequent liquidation, Investors exercising their Warrants may receive significantly less than the full exercise price that they paid for the shares of our Common Stock.

·	INVESTORS MAY EXPERIENCE IMMEDIATE AND SUBSTANTIAL DILUTION IN NET TANGIBLE BOOK VALUE PER SHARE OF OUR COMMON STOCK IN THE EVENT WE ISSUE SHARES OF OUR COMMON STOCK IN THE FUTURE.

There are additional authorized but unissued shares of our Common Stock that may be later issued by our management for any purpose without the consent or vote of the stockholders. Investors purchasing in this Offering may be further diluted in their percentage ownership on an as-converted basis in the event additional shares are issued by us in the future.

·	OUR ARTICLES OF INCORPORATION AUTHORIZE THE ISSUANCE OF SHARES OF PREFERRED STOCK WHICH, IF ISSUED, THE RIGHTS, PREFERENCES, DESIGNATIONS AND LIMITATIONS OF SUCH PREFERRED STOCK COULD OPERATE TO THE DISADVANTAGE OF THE SHARES OF OUR OUTSTANDING COMMON STOCK.

Our articles of incorporation authorize the issuance of shares of preferred stock, the rights, preferences, designations and limitations of which may be set by the board of directors. While no preferred stock is currently outstanding or subject to be issued, the articles of incorporation have authorized issuance of up to 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock (“Preferred Stock”) in the discretion of the board of directors. Such Preferred Stock may be issued upon filing of amended Articles of Incorporation and the payment of required fees; no further shareholder action is required. If issued, the rights, preferences, designations and limitations of such Preferred Stock would be set by our board of directors and could operate to the disadvantage of the shares of our outstanding Common Stock. Such terms could include, among others, preferences as to dividends and distributions on liquidation.

Finished Medicines - The Benda Ebei Plant

The Benda Ebei plant produces and packages Benda’s finished medicines. The plant employs about 200 personnel and has six world-class production lines and 11 stand-alone machinery for injection vials, with an annual aggregate production capacity of approximately 900 million units. In PRC, based on management estimate, there are about 197 factories with similar manufacturing facilities for injection vials. Benda Ebei’s capacity is sixth in PRC and first in Hubei province. In 2008 and 2007, Benda Ebei produced approximately 420 million and 418 million units of injection vials respectively, equivalent to 46% capacity. The production processes and equipment at Benda Ebei meets international quality and control standards and have been GMP certified by the SFDA since November 2003 and renew on December 3, 2008 for the production of injection vials; while on November 26, 2008, Benda Ebei received a GMP for the production of tables.

Benda Ebei’s plant will produce lozenges, capsules, granules, oral liquid and pills. Benda Ebei has invested approximately $5 million on its oral medicine production facilities. To date, we have already completed the equipment and facilities installation We expect the production of oral liquid medicines in second quarter of 2008. The Yanlong Anti-cancer Oral Liquid, Qiweiben Capsule will be produced in this section of the plant. (Please refer to the section of New Branded Medicines for the status of progress of these two new drugs.)

Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients - The Jiangling Benda Plant

We manufacture APIs at our Jiangling Benda plant. We closed the plant in July 2004 in order to renovate the buildings, equipment and processes and secure GMP certification by the SFDA. Upon completion, the new plant will be comprised of three large facilities on a total land area of 68 acres. The total expense of these renovations will be approximately $3 million. All the equipment has been ordered.

Bulk chemicals - The Yidu Benda Plant

Yidu Benda was temporarily closed since mid January 2007 to upgrade its waste water treatment system to comply with new environmental standards enforced by PRC local government.

Yidu Benda has completed its upgrading of the waste water system and passed the government’s verification and testing of equipments in October 2007. It is now permitted for the testing on actual production process. Once the actual products are produced, then the environmental government bodies will re-test the production results. The management could not estimate the exact timing for obtaining the final approval on the actual production process.

Gene therapy – SiBiono Plant

On October 16, 2003, SiBiono successfully obtained a New Drug License from SFDA, and then, in April 4, 2004, SiBiono obtained “Manufacture Certificate” and “Certificate of GMP for Pharmaceutical Product”, so far being fully qualified for the market launch of Recombinant Human Ad-p53 Injection, trademarked as Gendicine ® in China. Gendicine ® is the commercialized gene therapy product approved in the PRC government agency. On May 19, 2008, SiBiono received an official notice from the PRC State of SFDA in which it mentioned that during the random inspection performed by the PRC State of SFDA on April 8 to April 10, 2008, the PRC State of SFDA discovered there were several production procedures that did not meet the requirement stated in GMP, thus it required SiBiono to perform necessary improvements in order to fulfill the GMP requirements and the PRC State of SFDA collected back the distributed GMP certificate until the necessary improvements being carried out and passed the examination that conducted by SFDA. On June 10, 2008, SiBiono received another official notice from Guangdong Province SFDA and they demanded the same requirements as stated in the official notice which issued by the PRC State of SFDA dated on May 19, 2008. On November 24, 2008, SiBiono received another official notice from Guangdong Province SFDA which mentioned that after the examination conducted by Shenzhen City SFDA, the Guangdong Province SFDA consent SiBiono to carry out production on a trial basis. It further required SiBiono strictly to follow the requirements of GMP to organize trail production and follow the procedures to apply for GMP Certificate verification. The management could not estimate the exact timing for obtaining the final approval on the GMP Certificate.

ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.

The Company has become aware that Excalibur Limited Partnership and Excalibur Limited Partnership II (the "Plaintiffs") filed a motion for summary judgment in lieu of a complaint pursuant to CPLR § 3213 (the "Motion") with the Supreme Court of the State of New York (the "Court"), alleging that the Company has been delinquent on the payment of an aggregate sum of $600,000 and accrued interest and costs arising from the Convertible Promissory Notes that were issued to the Plaintiffs in April 2007 in connection with a $7,560,000 private placement. Pursuant to the motion, the Plaintiffs requested that the Court (1) enter summary judgment in favor of Excalibur Limited Partnership (“Excalibur Limited”) in the amount of $390,000 plus all accrued interest and costs, and, (2) enter summary judgment in favor of Excalibur Small Cap Opportunities LP (“Excalibur Small Cap”) in the amount of $210,000 and accrued interest and costs. As of the date hereof, the Company has not received service of such notice, and therefore, the Company does not have details regarding the content of the complaint made by the Plaintiffs

On March 4, 2009, the Company received a Notice and Default and Payment Demand letter (the "Default Letter") from Pope Investments LLC ("Pope") in connection with its convertible promissory note in the amount of $5,520,000 (the "Note") purchased in our April 2007 private placement offering. The Default Letter provided notice of default based on the Company's failure to make a required interest payment on the Note by February 20, 2009. The Default Letter further demanded full payment of all interest, liquidated damages and accrued interest thereon in the amount of $130,364.37 by March 14, 2009, or Pope will accelerate the maturity date of the full principal amount of the Note. On April 7, 2009, the Company received further Default Letters and Payment Demand from Pope, Excalibur Limited and Excalibur Small Cap demanding payment in full of the balance of the Notes, which matured on March 28, 2009.

On November 23, 2006, Benda Ebei entered into an Equity Transfer Agreement with Xiaozhi Zhang (“Zhang”), to purchase approximately 6.24% of SiBiono’s common stock for a total consideration of Rmb12.48 million (Rmb6.24 million in cash and shares of our common stock equal to Rmb6.24 million) (or $1.71 million) which was due and payable on or before March 31, 2007.

Due to the fact that the signed agreement on November 23, 2006 was not practically executable according to the PRC regulations, Benda Ebei asked Zhang to terminate the signed agreement and sign a new agreement that was feasible under PRC regulations with essentially the same terms.

However, Zhang refused to sign the new agreement and applied to the Shenzhen Arbitration Commission (the “Commission”) in April 2007 for enforcement of the original agreement. Zhang requested the Commission to require Benda Ebei to pay for the total consideration, penalty for late payment and the related legal and arbitration expenses.

On November 27, 2007, Shenzhen Arbitration Commission determined that:

1.	Benda Ebei should pay for the consideration of Rmb 6.24 million, equal to 50% of the total consideration set forth in the Equity Transfer Agreement. For the other 50% of the total consideration which was supposed to be settled in the form of issuing common stock, since Zhang did not make an arbitration request on how to execute the arrangement, the Arbitration Commission did not make an award on this particular part.

2.	Benda Ebei should pay for the penalty of Rmb 46,800;

3.	Benda Eebi should pay for legal and arbitration expenses of Rmb 268,971.

On May 22, 2008, Benda Ebei applied to Shenzhen People Court to terminate above mentioned arbitration. The termination is based on the ground that Xiaozhi Zhang does not own all 6.24% of SiBiono’s common stock. In fact, he only owns 3.28% of SiBiono’s stock. The application has been accepted by Shenzhen People Court and is waiting for its further investigation..

3.	SiBiono patents - on January 29, 2008, SiBiono entrusted Grandall Legal Group Shenzhen Law Firm to issue a legal letter to Zhaohui Peng, one of the shareholders of Sibiono and the inventor of Gendicine, demanding that he transfer all the title of patents to SiBiono.

ITEM 6. SELECTED FINANCIAL DATA

Not applicable to a smaller reporting company.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION.

Forward-Looking Statements

The following discussion may contain certain forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Such statements are intended to be covered by the safe harbors created by such provisions. These statements include the plans and objectives of management for future growth of the Company, including plans and objectives related to the consummation of acquisitions and future private and public issuances of the Company's equity and debt securities. The forward-looking statements included herein are based on current expectations that involve numerous risks and uncertainties. Assumptions relating to the foregoing involve judgments with respect to, among other things, future economic, competitive and market conditions and future business decisions, all of which are difficult or impossible to predict accurately and many of which are beyond the control of the Company. Although the Company believes that the assumptions underlying the forward-looking statements are reasonable, any of the assumptions could be inaccurate and, therefore, there can be no assurance that the forward-looking statements included in this Form 10-K will prove to be accurate. In light of the significant uncertainties inherent in the forward-looking statements included herein, the inclusion of such information should not be regarded as a representation by the Company or any other person that the objectives and plans of the Company will be achieved.

The words “we,” “us” and “our” refer to the Company. The words or phrases “would be,” “will allow,” “intends to,” “will likely result,” “are expected to,” “will continue,” “is anticipated,” “estimate,” “project,” or similar expressions are intended to identify “forward-looking statements.” Actual results could differ materially from those projected in the forward looking statements as a result of a number of risks and uncertainties, including but not limited to: (a) limited amount of resources devoted to achieving our business plan; (b) our failure to implement our business plan within the time period we originally planned to accomplish; (c) because we are seeking to merge with an operating business which has not yet been identified, you will be unable to determine whether we will ever become profitable; and (d) other risks that are discussed in this Form 10-K or included in our previous filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Critical Accounting Policies

Accounting policies discussed in this section are those that we consider to be most critical to an understanding of our financial statements because they inherently involve significant judgment and uncertainties. For all of these estimates, we caution that future events rarely develop exactly as forecast, and the best estimates routinely require adjustment. Also see Note 4, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies.

Revenue Recognition

Among the most important accounting policies affecting our consolidated financial statements is our policy of recognizing revenue in accordance with the SEC's Staff Accounting Bulletin ("SAB") No. 104. Under this policy, all of the following criteria must be met in order for us to recognize revenue:

1. Persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists;

2. Delivery has occurred or services have been rendered;

3. The seller's price to the buyer is fixed or determinable; and

4. Collectibility is reasonably assured.

The majority of the Company's revenue results from sales contracts with distributors and revenue is recorded upon the shipment of goods. Management conducts credit background checks for new customers as a means to reduce the subjectivity of assuring collectibility. Based on these factors, the Company believes that it can apply the provisions of SAB 104 with minimal subjectivity.

Estimates Affecting Accounts Receivable and Inventories

The preparation of our consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect our reporting of assets and liabilities (and contingent assets and liabilities). However, it is explicated that the changes in estimation were not material in the preparation of our consolidation financial statements.

As of December 31, 2008 and 2007, the Company provided a $3,786,459 and $943,647 respectively for the allowance of doubtful accounts against trade receivables, other receivables and prepaid and deposits. Management's estimate of the appropriate allowance on those accounts receivable for the reporting periods was based on the aged nature of these accounts. In making its judgment, management assessed its customers' ability to continue to pay their outstanding invoices and the collectibility of those accounts on a timely basis, and whether their financial position might deteriorate significantly in the future, which would result in their inability to pay their debts to the Company.

Inventories, which are primarily comprised of raw materials, packaging materials, and finished goods, are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Cost being determined on the basis of a moving average. The Group evaluates the need for reserves associated with obsolete, slow-moving and non-salable inventory by reviewing net realizable values on a periodic basis.

For the year ended December 31, 2008 and 2007, the Company provided for a reserve against its work-in-progress amounting to $4,941,372 and $4,422,014 respectively.

The provision of reserve was resulted from the manufacturing process of Gendicine, SiBiono’s sole product and SiBiono was acquired by the company in April 2007.

The following chart shows the manufacturing process of Gendicine (Ad-p53):

In the production process of finished goods, Gendicine, several working steps are needed: (i) large-scale culturing of adenovirus from master adenovirus bank; (ii) culturing of cell from master cell bank; (iii) purification. The whole process including step (i) to step (iii) takes approximately twenty-four days to make reagent (“original liquid”). This particular liquid can only be stored for approximately five years. It takes approximately another seven days for mixing and bottling original liquid to finished goods which is known as Gendicine.

Therefore, up to the stage of reagent, all the related production costs are treated as work-in-progress. The major components of those production costs are: (i) direct labor; (ii) direct materials; (iii) power; (iv) supplies and other materials; and (v) manufacturing overheads.

Before acquisition, as of March 31, 2007, the accumulated units of original liquid produced was 198,075 and which could be converted to approximately 226,736 vials of Gendicine. However, the accumulated vials of Gendicine sold throughout the years 2004 to three-month period ended March 31, 2007 were only approximately 18,424 vials. Thus the accumulated production costs of $4,080,644 were remained as work-in-process as of March 31, 2007.

Furthermore, due to the special feature of the original liquid which can only be stored for five years, and most of the original liquid was produced in the year of 2004, and the provision of reserves against its inventories was $3,696,083 as of March 31, 2007.

After the acquisition with the effective date April 1, 2007, the same accounting treatment was adopted for the treatment of the provision of reserve on work-in-progress. As of December 31, 2008, the provision of reserve on work-in-progress was $4,941,372.

A reserve for obsolete, slow-moving or non-salable inventory was made on raw materials, packing materials, finished goods and work-in-progress at the amount of $122,433, $7,118, $269,749 and $4,542,072 respectively as of December 31, 2008.

Management determination of this allowance was based on potential impairments to the current carrying value of the inventories due to potential obsolescence of aged inventories. In making its estimate, management considered the probable demand for our products in the future and historical trends in the turnover of our inventories. While the Company currently believes that there is little likelihood that actual results will differ materially from these current estimates.

b)	Due to the fact that there was a big natural disaster, earthquake that happened in the second quarter and the global financial crisis happened since the fourth quarter, they did affect the collection of trade receivables to certain extend; and

c)	The management realized that it did affect the cash flow situation of the company; therefore the company will put more efforts to reduce the balance of trade receivables.

For the year ended December 31, 2007, an amount approximately $11.08 million was spent in the investing activities which were mainly used in the acquisition of SiBiono and purchase of property and equipment and the payment of construction-in-progress. However, since most of the settlements were made in the year of 2007, thus the investing activities were relatively small in the year ended December 31, 2008, only about $1.54 million.

Financing cash inflow was $8.21 million for the reporting period year ended December 31, 2007. The major event of it was a net amount $7.03 million was received from the issuance of convertible promissory notes. For the reporting period year ended December 31, 2008, the financing cash inflow was $1.09 million. The major of it was a net amount $1.93 million was received from the commercial bank notes.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

Board of Directors

Benda Pharmaceutical, Inc.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Benda Pharmaceutical, Inc. and subsidiaries (the "Company") as of December 31, 2008 and 2007 and the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in stockholders’ equity and cash flows for each of the years in the two year period ended December 31, 2008. 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 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 audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required at this time, 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 Benda Pharmaceutical, Inc. and subsidiaries at December 31, 2008 and 2007 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years in the two year period ended December 31, 2008 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the in the United States of America.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

(Amounts expressed in U.S. Dollars)

1.	Organization

Benda Pharmaceutical, Inc. (“Benda”) is a corporation organized under the Florida Laws and headquartered in Hubei Province, the People’s Republic of China (“PRC”).

Ever Leader Holdings Limited (“Ever Leader”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Benda, is a company incorporated under the laws of Hong Kong SAR.

On April 5, 2007, Benda Ebei entered into an Equity Transfer Agreements with Shenzhen Yuanzheng Investment Development Co., Ltd. and Shenzhen Yuanxing Gene City Development Co., Ltd., the then shareholders of Shenzhen SiBiono GeneTech Co., Ltd (“SiBiono”), to purchase 27.57% and 30% respectively of the shares of SiBiono’s common stock for total consideration of Rmb 60 million (or $7.88 million) due and payable on or before April 30, 2007. On June 11, 2007, Benda Ebei entered into an Equity Transfer Agreements with Huimin Zhang and Yaojin Wang, the individual shareholders of SiBiono, and to purchase 1.6% and 0.96% respectively of the shares of SiBiono’s common stock for total consideration of Rmb 2.56 million (or $0.34 million) due and payable on or before June 30, 2007. Altogether, the total consideration for 60.13% shares of SiBiono’s common stock was Rmb62.56 million or $9.18 million. As of December 31, 2008, an accumulated amount, approximately Rmb52. 83million or $7.75 million was paid and leaving a balance of Rmb 9.73 million or $1.43 million (please refer to Note 10 for the details).

Benda, Ever Leader, Benda Ebei, Jingling Benda, Yidu Benda, Beijing Shusai and SiBiono shall be referred to herein collectively as the “Group”. The Group is engaged principally in the business of identifying, discovering, developing, and manufacturing conventional medicines, active pharmaceuticals, bulk chemicals (or pharmaceutical immediates), and Traditional Chinese Medicines (“TCM”) for the treatment of some of the most widespread common ailments and diseases (e.g. common cold, diabetes, and cancer).

F-6

As of December 31, 2008, the organization and ownership structure of the Group is as follows:

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As reflected in the accompanying consolidated financial statements, the Company has an accumulated deficit of $16,047,561 and a working capital deficiency of $18,857,330 at December 31, 2008, a net loss of $15,815,920 and net cash used in operations $810,116 for the year ended December 31, 2008, respectively.

While the Company is attempting to produce sufficient revenues, the Company’s cash position may not be enough to support the Company’s daily operations. Management intends to raise additional funds by way of a public or private offering. Management believes that the actions presently being taking to further implement its business plan and generate sufficient revenues provide the opportunity for the Company to continue as a going concern. While the Company believes in the viability of its strategy to increase revenues and in its ability to raise additional funds, there can be no assurance to that effect. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the Company’s ability to further implement its business plan and generate sufficient revenues. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary it the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

2.	Basis of Preparation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements of Benda and its subsidiaries have been prepared in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for consolidated financial information

These consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Benda, Ever Leader, Benda Ebei, Jiangling Benda, Yidu Benda, Beijing Shusai and Sibiono for the full year.. All significant inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

3.	Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results when ultimately realized could differ from those estimates.

F-7

4.	Significant Accounting Policies

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, cash on deposit with various financial institutions, and all highly-liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less at the time of purchase.

Estimates Affecting Trade Receivables, Other Receivables, Prepaid and Deposits and Inventories

As of December 31, 2008 and 2007, the Group provided a $3,786,459 and $943,647 respectively for the allowance of doubtful accounts against trade receivables, other receivables and prepaid and deposits (please refer to Note 5 for details). Management's estimate of the appropriate allowance on those accounts receivable for the reporting periods was based on the aged nature of these accounts. In making its judgment, management assessed its customers' ability to continue to pay their outstanding invoices and the collectibility of those accounts on a timely basis, and whether their financial position might deteriorate significantly in the future, which would result in their inability to pay their debts to the Company.

For the year ended December 31, 2008 and 2007, the Group provided a reserve against its obsolete, slow-moving or non-salable inventory amounting to $4,941,372 and $4,422,014 respectively (please refer to Note 7 for details)

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are recorded at cost and depreciated using the straight-line method, with an estimated 5% salvage value of original cost, over the estimated useful lives of the assets as follows:

Buildings	20-30years
Machinery and equipment	10-15 years
Motor Vehicles	5 years
Electronics and office equipment	5 years

Expenditures for repairs and maintenance, which do not improve or extend the expected useful lives of the assets, are expensed as incurred while major replacements and improvements are capitalized.

When property or equipment is retired or disposed of, the cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts, with any resulting gains or losses being included in net income or loss in the year of disposition.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

The Group evaluates potential impairment of long-lived assets, in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets, which requires the Group to (a) recognize an impairment loss only if the carrying amount of a long-lived asset is not recoverable from its undiscounted cash flows and (b) measure an impairment loss as the difference between the carrying amount and fair value of the asset. As of December 31, 2008 and 2007, the Group provided a reserve against its Goodwill amounting to $7,776,223 and none, respectively (please refer to Note 10 for details).

Intangible Assets

The Group’s intangible assets are stated at cost less accumulated amortization and are comprised of land-use rights, drug permits and licenses, patent and technology formulas know-how. Land-use rights are related to land the Group occupies in Hubei and Guangdong Province, PRC and are being amortized on a straight-line basis over a period of 40 years. Other intangible assets are being amortized on a straight-line basis over a period of 10 years.

Revenue Recognition

1. Persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists;

2. Delivery has occurred or services have been rendered;

3. The seller's price to the buyer is fixed or determinable; and

4. Collectibility is reasonably assured.

The majority of the Group's revenue results from sales contracts with distributors and revenue is recorded upon the shipment of goods. Management conducts credit background checks for new customers as a means to reduce the subjectivity of assuring collectibility. Based on these factors, the Group believes that it can apply the provisions of SAB 104 with minimal subjectivity.

Research and Development

Research and development costs are expensed as incurred and consist primarily of salaries and related expenses of personnel engaged in research and development activities. The Group spent $1,461,951 and $553,962 on direct research and development (“R&D”) efforts in 2008 and 2007, respectively.

Income Taxes

The Group accounts for income taxes under the liability method in accordance with SFAS No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recorded for the estimated future tax effects of temporary differences between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and amounts reported in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance if current evidence indicates that it is considered more likely than not that these benefits will not be realized.

Comprehensive Income

The Group has adopted SFAS No. 130, Reporting Comprehensive Income, which establishes standards for reporting and displaying comprehensive income, its components, and accumulated balances in a full-set of general-purpose financial statements. Accumulated other comprehensive income represents the accumulated balance of foreign currency translation adjustments.

F-9

Concentration of Credit Risk

A significant portion of the Group's cash at December 31, 2008 and 2007 is maintained at various financial institutions in the PRC which do not provide insurance for amounts on deposit.

The Group has not experienced any losses in such accounts and believes it is not exposed to significant credit risk in this area.

The Group operates principally in the PRC and grants credit to its customers in this geographic region. Although the PRC is economically stable, it is always possible that unanticipated events in foreign countries could disrupt the Group’s operations.

The following table shows the individual customer’s revenue and account receivable balance which was higher than 5% of total revenue and total account receivables for the years ended December 31, 2008 and 2007:

Basic and Diluted Earnings Per Share

The Group adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128, “Earnings Per Share” (SFAS128). SFAS 128 requires the presentation of earnings per share (EPS) as Basic and Diluted EPS. Basic earnings per share are calculated by taking net income divided by the weighted average shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is calculated by taking basic weighted average shares of common stock and increasing it for dilutive common stock equivalents such as warrants that are in the money.

Foreign Currency Translation

The functional currency of the Group is the Renminbi (“RMB”), the PRC’s currency. The Group maintains its financial statements using the functional currency. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the functional currency are translated into the functional currency at rates of exchange prevailing at the balance sheet dates. Transactions denominated in currencies other than the functional currency are translated into the functional currency at the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transaction. Exchange gains or losses arising from foreign currency transactions are included in the determination of net income (loss) for the respective periods.

F-10

For financial reporting purposes, the financial statements of the Group, which are prepared using the RMB, are translated into the Group’s reporting currency, United States Dollars. Balance sheet accounts are translated using the closing exchange rate in effect at the balance sheet date and income and expense accounts are translated using the average exchange rate prevailing during the reporting period. Adjustments resulting from the translation, if any, are included in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) in stockholder’s equity.

The exchange rates in effect at December 31, 2008 and 2007 were stated as follows: (for RMB 1.00):

	December 31,		December 31,
	2008		2007
Fixed rate	$	0.1467	$	0.1371
Average rate	$	0.1442	$	0.1317

For the year ended December 31, 2008, the foreign exchange loss was $11,347; and for the year ended December 31, 2007, the foreign exchange gain was $2,302.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Group's financial instruments include cash equivalents, accounts receivable, other receivables, accounts payable, accrued expenses, value-added taxes, short-term and long-term bank loans, and loans payable to related parties. The carrying amounts of financial instruments other than long-term obligations approximate fair value due to their short maturities. Long-term obligations approximate fair value based upon rates currently available for similar instruments.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In September 2006, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 157, "Fair Value Measurements", which establishes a framework for reporting fair value and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS No. 157 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007 and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Group is currently assessing the impact of the adoption of this standard on its financial statements.

In February 2007, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued FASB 159 "The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities" ("FASB 159"). FASB 159 permits entities to measure financial instruments and certain other items at fair value that are not currently measured at fair value. The Group is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of SFAS 159 will have, if any, on our financial statements.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

SFAS No. 123R, Share-Based Payment, an Amendment of SFAS No. 123, was issued in December 2004 and was effective as of the beginning of the Group’s 2006 fiscal year. SFAS No. 123R requires all share-based payments to qualified individuals, including grants of employee stock options, to be recognized as compensation expense in the financial statements based on their grant date fair values.

On December 4, 2007, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued SFAS No. 160, Noncontrolling interest in Consolidated Financial Statements (SFAS No. 160). SFAS No. 160 requires all entities to report noncontrolling (minority) interests in subsidiaries as equity in the consolidated financial statements. The statement establishes a single method of accounting for changes in a parent’s ownership interest in a subsidiary that do not result in deconsolidation and expands disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. SFAS No. 160 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008 and interim periods within those fiscal years. We have not yet determined the impact of the adoption of SFAS No. 160 on our consolidated financial statements and footnote disclosures.

F-11

On December 4, 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No.141R, Business Combinations (SFAS No. 141R). SFAS No. 141R requires the acquiring entity in a business combination to recognize all the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, establishes the acquisition date fair value as the measurement objective for all assets acquired and liabilities assumed, and requires the acquirer to expand disclosures about the nature and financial effect of the business combination. SFAS No. 141R is effective for business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after the beginning of the first annual reporting period beginning on or after December 15, 2008. We have not yet determined the impact of the adoption of SFAS No. 141R on our consolidated financial statements and footnote disclosures.

Reclassification

Certain amounts in the prior period financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. The reclassification had no effect on reported losses.

5.	Trade Receivables, Other Receivables, Short-term Loan Receivable and Prepaid expenses and Deposits

(1)	Allowance for doubtful debts

As mentioned in Note 4 that the company estimates of the appropriate allowance on those accounts receivable for the reporting periods was based on the aged nature of these accounts. The table below shows the allowance for doubtful debts of the Group’s trade receivables, other receivables and prepaid expenses and deposits as of December 31, 2008 and 2007:

	December 31,			December 31,
	2008			2007
Trade receivables, gross	$	13,123,374		$	10,909,921
Allowance for doubtful debts		(3,786,459	)		(437,688	)
Trade receivables, net	$	9,336,915		$	10,472,233

	December 31,			December 31,
	2008			2007
Other receivables, gross	$	504,349		$	614,971
Allowance for doubtful debts		-			(161,376	)
Other receivables, net	$	504,349		$	453,595

	December 31,			December 31,
	2008			2007
Prepaid and deposits, gross	$	918,209		$	1,277,882
Allowance for doubtful debts		-			(344,583	)
Prepaid and deposits, net	$	918,209		$	933,299

F-12

The change of the allowance for doubtful debts between the reporting periods, as of December 31, 2008 and 2007, is displayed as follows:

	2008			2007
Balance at beginning of period	$	(943,647	)	$	(467,015	)
Provision/Reversal during the period		(2,730,434	)		(287,482	)
Addition in lieu of acquisition of SiBiono		-			(121,912	)
Foreign exchange difference		(112,378	)		(67,238	)
Balance at end of period	$	(3,786,459	)	$	(943,647	)

The Group set full allowance for trade receivables aged over 120 days which is general credit term granted to the customers. After deducting those allowances from the gross trade receivable, based on the management’s past experience, there would be no collectability issue on the net amount.

For the year ended December 31, 2008, the allowance for trade receivables increased by $ 3,348,771. This was mainly affected by the global finance crisis; the customers of the Group slowed payment which caused the ageing of the receivables deteriorate significantly.

(2) Short-term loan receivable

The short-term receivable is due on June 30, 2009, has no collateral or security and bears annual interest rate of 7.2%.

6.	Refundable Purchase Price Paid

On, December 7, 2006, Benda Ebei paid $1.2 million to SECO (Shenzhen) Biotech Co., Ltd. (“SECO”) pursuant to a purchase agreement signed between SECO and Benda Ebei on December 3, 2006 to acquire a technology know-how and drug specifications / technical parameters in producing a Gastropathy drug owned by SECO. According to the signed contract:

·	The amount paid is refundable only if SECO fails to pass the examination conducted by Benda Ebei;

·	Altogether, there are three phases for the examination; however there is no specific time-table for the examination;

·	The contract is valid for 10 years upon the contract signed.

As at December 31, 2008, the deal has not been closed as the product is still under the process of development. As the date when could SECO pass the examination conducted by Benda Ebei cannot be determined, thus the amount paid is reclassified as non-current assets as of December 31, 2008.

Total inventories, net	$	2,344,562		$	1,952,348

A reserve for obsolete, slow-moving or non-salable inventory was made on raw materials, packing materials, finished goods and work-in-process at the amount of $122,433, $7,118, $269,749 and $4,542,072 respectively as of December 31, 2008. As of December 31, 2007, there was a reserve made on work-in-process at the amount of $4,422,014 only.

The provision of reserve on work-in-process was resulted from the manufacturing process of Gendicine, SiBiono’s sole product and SiBiono was acquired by the company in April 2007.

The following chart shows the manufacturing process of Gendicine (Ad-p53):

Therefore, up to the stage of reagent, all the related production costs are treated as work-in-process. The major components of those production costs are: (i) direct labor; (ii) direct materials; (iii) power; (iv) supplies and other materials and (v) manufacturing overheads.

F-14

Before acquisition, as of March 31, 2007, the accumulated units of original liquid produced was 198,075 and which could be converted to approximately 226,736 vials of Gendicine. However, the accumulated vials of Gendicine sold throughout the years 2004 to three-months period ended March 31, 2007 were only approximately 18,424 vials. The accumulated production costs of $4,080,644 were remained as work-in-process as of three-month period ended March 31, 2007.

Furthermore, due to the special feature of the original liquid which can only be stored for five years, and most of the original liquid was produced in the year of 2004, and the provision of reserve on work in process was $3,696,083 as of three-month period ended March 31, 2007.

After the acquisition with the effective date April 1, 2007, the same accounting treatment was adopted for the treatment of the provision of reserve on work-in-process. As of December 31, 2008, the provision of reserve on work in process was $4,542,072.

In May 2007, SiBiono enter into a co-operation agreement with DNAVEC, a Japanese gene therapy research institute. Under the terms of the agreement, DNAVEC will leverage SiBiono’s proven gene therapy manufacturing platform and will transfer the exclusive development and distribution rights of SeV-Gag in China to SiBiono. The total purchase cost was Rmb2 million or $ 0.28 milllion and recorded as intantigle assets. In November 2008 this project was ceased and the whole cost was recoverable. Therefore the whole cost was removed from intangible assets and related amortization was reversed. As of December 31, 2008, Rmb 1.19 million or $0.17 million was received, leaving a balance of Rmb 0.81 million or $0.11 million receivable.

10.	Goodwill and Acquisition Cost Payable

FASB 141 requires all acquisitions must be accounted for by allocating the acquisition consideration to the assets acquired based upon the fair market value of those assets. Consideration value that cannot be allocated to the acquired assets must be assigned to goodwill. In addition, it also requires eliminating the pooling treatment and eliminating the amortization of goodwill. FASB 142 requires that a company carrying goodwill on its books must revalue the assets acquired in a business combination. If there is an overall decline in the value of the acquired assets, then earlier booked goodwill is deemed “impaired” and must be written down. FASB 142 requires a two step impairment test. The fair value of a reporting unit is first compared to its carrying value, including goodwill. Then the implied fair value of the goodwill is compared to the carrying value of the goodwill. If the fair value is lower, it is considered to be impaired.

As of December 31, 2008, there was an amount approximately $7.8 million was recorded as goodwill. Meanwhile, the Group made an impairment charge at full amount on the goodwill due to the following facts (please read in conjunction with Note 13):

SiBiono has serious working capital deficit situation and has reported loss of $2.08 million for the year ended December 31, 2008;

The management has not yet located or confirmed any feasible re-financing plan and / or equity placement as of the report date. The follow up action is still under the discussion with the lender bank.

As of December 31, 2008, out of the total acquisition cost Rmb62.56 million (or $9.18 million), the following payments were made:

In the year of 2006, Benda, through its subsidiaries Everleader and Benda Ebei, paid Rmb19.52 million and Rmb13.03 million or totaling Rmb32.55 million to the selling shareholders of SiBiono and reported in the consolidated balance sheet and cash flow statement as “refundable purchase price paid”. It was recorded as refundable assets due to the fact that the deal was not concluded as of December 31, 2006. The acquisition was closed on April 5, 2007, and thus the total refundable amount of Rmb32.55 or $4.17 million was reclassified as investment cost.

In the year of 2007, an additional amount Rmb20.28 million was paid. The remaining balance was reported as “acquisition cost payable” on the balance sheet. As of December 31, 2008, the total amount paid was Rmb52.83 million (or $7.75 million) and the outstanding balance was Rmb9.73 million (or $1.43 million).

The Group has already obtained the oral consent from the selling shareholders of SiBiono that the remaining balance could be settled within the year of 2009.

11.	Restricted Cash, Bank Indebtedness and Commercial Notes Payable

The Group’s restricted cash at December 31, 2008 and December 31, 2007 was comprised as follows:

	December 31,		December 31,
	2008		2007
Deposits for issuance of commercial notes	$	4,859,346	$	2,615,254
Funds from government technolgy agencies		1,303,503		1,342,370
Total restricted cash	$	6,162,849	$	3,957,624

A)	On August 14, 2007, Benda Ebei entered into a commercial bank note issuable agreement with Shanghai Pudong Development Bank. Pursuant to this agreement, the following terms are included:

Duration of the agreement is three years;

It is non-interest bearing;

The repayment period of each commercial note payable is six months;

F-18

The total commercial note issuable limit is Rmb 60 million; however 50% of deposit should be made into the bank in order to secure the issuance of commercial bank note, thus the net available amount is Rmb 30 million;

	e)	If the net amount of each commercial bank note payable is not settled on the due date, the penalty will be the penalty rate of the PRC bank loan on daily and compound basis.

As mentioned in Note 8, this credit facility is guaranteed by SiBiono and secured by the buildings, machinery and equipment of Benda Ebei. On December 15, 2007, Benda Ebei received a consent letter from Pudong Bank that Pudong Bank agreed to cancel SiBiono’s guarantee toward this credit facility.

As of December 31, 2008, Benda Ebei and Jiangling Benda deposited an amount $4,859,346 in Shanghai Pudong Development Bank as deposit for the issuance of commercial bank notes. Such deposits will be released when the commercial bank notes are cleared. As of December 31, 2008, the balance of the commercial bank notes payable was $9,297,169. Thus the net commercial bank notes payable was $4,437,823 as of December 31, 2008.

B)	The bank indebtedness was resulted from the acquisition of SiBiono with the effective date April 1, 2007. The reasons for causing bank indebtedness were stated as follows:

Among the cash and cash equivalents balances of SiBiono were composed of two parts; (i) unrestricted cash, which were generated from either operations, or loans from bank and financial institutions, or invested capital; (ii) restricted cash, which were obtained from the various government technology agencies as long term debt payable (see note 14 for the related details).

The cash obtained from the various government technology agencies as long term debt payable could only be dedicated to the related project’s research and development activities and purchase of fixed assets and construction in progress, therefore the cash balances for that part will be classified as restricted cash.

Due to the above reasons, SiBiono relocated the balances of restricted cash from the cash and cash equivalents balances for the reporting periods.

However, since the balance of the restricted cash was larger than the balance of cash and cash equivalents balances, thus bank indebtedness were resulted for the reporting periods.

Due to the above reasons, SiBiono relocated the balances of restricted cash from the cash and cash equivalents balances with an amount $1,303,503 as of December 31, 2008. However, since the balances of the restricted cash were larger than the balance of cash and cash equivalents balances, bank indebtedness were resulted with an amount $1,288,257 as of December 31, 2008.

12.	Other assets

On November 27, 2007, Shenzhen Arbitration Commission determined that:

Benda Ebei should pay for the consideration of Rmb 6.24 million, equal to 50% of the total consideration set forth in the Equity Transfer Agreement. For the other 50% of the total consideration which was supposed to be settled in the form of issuing common stock, since Zhang did not make an arbitration request on how to execute the arrangement, the Arbitration Commission did not make an award on this particular part.

2.	Benda Ebei should pay for the penalty of Rmb 46,800;

3.	Benda Eebi should pay for legal and arbitration expenses of Rmb 268,971.

Following this arbitration decision, Benda Ebei recognized the liability as total acquisition cost payable of Rmb 12.48 million, plus the penalty and related legal and arbitration expenses, totaling approximately Rmb 12.80 million or ($1.88 million) (Note 15). Accordingly Benda Eebi recognized the right to purchase the 6.24% equity shares in SiBiono and recorded as other assets at Rmb 12.48 million or $1.83 million.

24.	Long Term Convertible Promissory Note

Our financial statements include enhanced note disclosure addressing the fair value of the convertible promissory notes and warrants and the appropriate accounting treatment for the overall transaction.

Additionally, the enhanced note disclosure includes a detailed discussion of the accounting for the debt discount resulting from the relative fair value of the warrants issued in conjunction with the convertible promissory notes (calculated in accordance with APB 14) and the debt discount resulting from the beneficial conversion feature / conversion discount associated with the convertible promissory notes (calculated in accordance with EITF 98-5 and EITF 00-27) as follows:

In March and April of 2007, the Group entered into Investment Agreements (“Agreements”) with certain accredited and institutional investors (“Investors”) pursuant to which the Investors purchased from the Group a total of 252 Units (“Units”), resulting in aggregate gross proceeds to the Group $7,560,000, with each Unit consisting of: (i) a Convertible Promissory Note (“Note”) in the principal amount of $30,000 and convertible into 54,087 shares of the Group's common stock; and (ii) a Common Stock Warrant (“Warrant”) to acquire 54,087 shares of the Group’s common stock at an exercise price of $0.555 per share and expiring on November 14, 2011. The Notes are immediately convertible at the option of each Investor, bear interest at a rate of 4% per annum, and mature on March 28, 2009.

The Group has accounted for the Warrants issued in conjunction with the Notes in accordance with the provisions of APB No. 14, “Accounting for Convertible Debt and Debt Issued with Stock Purchase Warrants” (“APB 14”). Accordingly, the Warrants were valued using a Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following assumptions: (i) a risk free interest rate of 4.63%, (ii) a contractual life of 4.6 years, (iii) an expected volatility of 25%, and (iv) a dividend yield of zero. The relative fair value of the Warrants, based on an allocation of the value of the Notes and the value of the Warrants issued in conjunction with the Notes, was recorded as a debt discount (with a corresponding increase to additional paid-in capital) in the amount of $5,174,911, and is being amortized to interest expense over the expected term of the Notes.

Additionally, the difference between the effective conversion price of the Notes into shares of the Group’s common stock, and the fair value of the Group’s common stock on the date of issuance of the Notes, resulted in a beneficial conversion feature of $2,385,089 (capped at the $7,560,000 of gross proceeds raised less the previously calculated $5,174,911 debt discount associated with Warrants issued in conjunction with the Notes) and was calculated in accordance with EITF 98-5, “Accounting for Convertible Securities with Beneficial Conversion Features or Contingently Adjustable Conversion Ratios” and EITF 00-27, “Application of Issue No. 98-5 to Certain Convertible Instruments”. This beneficial conversion feature was recorded as an additional debt discount (with a corresponding increase to additional paid-in capital) and is being amortized to interest expense over the expected term of the Notes.

On July 10, 2008, 10 units of were converted to shares of 540,870. Therefore, as of December 31, 2008, the aggregate $7,260,000 principal balance of the notes remained outstanding and for the year ended December 31, 2008, the Group recorded $695,286 of interest expense related to the Notes.

F-28

During the year ended December 31, 2008, the Group recorded $3,520,876 in interest expense related to the amortization of the debt discount associated with the Warrants and the debt discount associated with the beneficial conversion feature.

The Group also incurred $529,200 in placement agent commissions related to the issuance of the Notes and Warrants. This amount was recorded by the Group as debt issue costs and is being amortized over expected term of the Notes. For the year ended December 31, 2008, the Group recorded $264,962 in amortization expense related to debt issue costs.

The securities underlying the Notes and Warrants issued to the Investors are also subject to the terms of a Make Good Agreement entered into in connection with a financing the Group executed in November of 2006 (the “Make Good Agreement”). The Group further represented to the Investors that its target net income for fiscal year 2007 (“FY07 Net Income”) will be greater than or equal to $10.0 million (adjusted for a variety of non-cash charges) (the “Performance Threshold”). In the event the Performance Threshold is not attained, the Group is required to issue to the Investors a pro rata portion of 1,000,000 shares of the Group’s common stock for every one (1) cent by which the Group’s earnings per share, determined on a fully diluted basis, is less than $0.065. During the year ended December 31, 2008 the Group issued shares 3,810,976 shares of common stock in lieu of the non-achievement of the Performance Threshold at $0.07 per share, totaling to $266,768.

In the accounting for the Long Term Converible Promissory Note, the Group’s analysis of the Performance Threshold had no effect because of the cap of the debt discounted and beneficial conversion feature as calculated in accordance with EITF 98-5.

The Group is also required to register for resale: (i) the shares of common stock underlying the Notes; and (ii) 150% of the shares of common stock underlying the Warrants, on a registration statement to be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“Registration Statement”) and such Registration Statement is required to be declared effective by August 15, 2007 (the “Effectiveness Deadline”). If the Registration Statement does not become effective by the Effectiveness Deadline, or if the Group fails to maintain the effectiveness of the Registration Statement, for any reason, the Group is required to pay the Investors in cash an amount equal to 1% of the purchase price of each Unit held by the Investors on such Effectiveness Deadline or the first day of such failure to maintain the Registration Period, as applicable, and for every 30 day period (or part) thereafter, in each case until cured (“Registration Delay Payments”), provided that the Registration Delay Payments will not exceed 10% of the purchase price of the Units. In the event that the Registration Delay Payments are not made in a timely manner, such Registration Delay Payments will bear interest at a rate of 1.5% per month until paid in full.

The calculated fair value of the warrants (issued in conjunction with the convertible promissory notes) was recorded as a debt discount (reduction to the carrying value of the convertible promissory notes) with a corresponding increase (credit) to additional paid in capital.

In accordance with the registration rights granted to investors who purchased the convertible promissory notes and warrants, we are required to file a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“Registration Statement”) attempting to register the potentially issuable shares of common stock underlying the convertible promissory notes and warrants. There is no cash settlement requirement, in the event the Company cannot deliver Registered Shares.

F-29

Specifically, in the event the Registration Statement is not declared effective by August 15, 2007 (“Effectiveness Deadline”), we are required to pay to the investors in cash an amount equal to 1% of the purchase price paid by each investor for the convertible promissory notes and warrants (“Registration Delay Payments”). Additionally, for every 30 day period (or part) thereafter that the Registration Statement is not declared effective, we are required to continue to make Registration Delay Payments, provided that such Registration Delay Payments shall not exceed 10% of the purchase price paid by each investor for the convertible promissory notes and warrants.

In the event the Registration Statement is never declared effective, the Registration Delay Payments are capped at 10% (of the purchase price paid by each investor for the convertible promissory notes and warrants). As a result, the initial requirement for the Company to deliver registered shares upon conversion of the convertible promissory notes or exercise of the warrants is negated and paragraphs 14 – 18 of EITF 00-19 are not applicable (for purposes of classifying the fair value of the warrants issued in conjunction with the convertible promissory notes as a liability with changes in fair value recorded in earnings).

In accordance with FASB staff position No. EITF00-19-2, as of December 31, 2008 the Group recorded $1,113,405 for Registration Delay Expense or penalty to investors. According to the signed agreement, the penalty would be capped 10% of the total fund raised and such cap was reached in June 2008, thus there would be no more penalties incurred onwards. Furthermore, the Registration Statement had been effective in August 2008.

25.	Common Stock, Preferred Stock, Additional Paid-in Capital, Warrants and Options

Commencing January 2007, Rotenberg has decided to no longer undertake audits of Chinese based companies. Therefore, Schwartz Levitsky Feldman LLP, as Rotenberg's sub-contractor on the Company's audit shall be the Company's independent registered public accounting firm.

On February 8, 2007, we dismissed Schwartz Levitsky Feldman LLP (“SLF”) as our independent registered public accounting firm. SLF was previously appointed on January 9, 2007 as our independent auditors for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2006 on whose financial statements they rendered an unqualified opinion on January 11, 2007. On November 17, 2006, SLF was also engaged to audit the financial statements of Everleader for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004. Benda and SLF did not have any disagreements with regard to any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure during the year ended September 30, 2006 for which SLF issued an audit report, and the subsequent interim period through February 8, 2007. As required by applicable Securities legislation, Benda engaged SLF to audit the financial statements of Everleader for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004. During the period of the engagement with SLF, neither Benda nor Everleader had retained a qualified Chief Financial Officer. Accordingly, neither Benda nor Everleader had the technical expertise and as a result was unable to provide sufficient audit documentation and/or information to allow SLF to complete the audit of Everleader for the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004.

On March 7, 2007, we engaged Kempisty and Company Certified Public Accountants, P.C. (“Kempisty”) to be our new independent registered public accounting firm. Prior to engaging Kempisty, the Company had not consulted Kempisty regarding the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction, completed or proposed, the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Company’s financial statements or a reportable event, nor did the Company consult with Kempisty regarding any disagreements with its prior auditor on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements, if not resolved to the satisfaction of the prior auditor, would have caused it to make a reference to the subject matter of the disagreements in connection with its report.

ITEM 9A(T). CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Management of the Company is responsible for establishing and maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act. The Company’s internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance to the Company’s management and Board of Directors regarding the preparation and fair presentation of published financial statements in accordance with United State’s generally accepted accounting principles (US GAAP), including those policies and procedures that: (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company, (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with US GAAP and that receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company, and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Management conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting based on the framework in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Management’s assessment included an evaluation of the design of our internal control over financial reporting and testing of the operational effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting. Based on this assessment, Management concluded the Company maintained effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2008.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation.

This annual report does not include an attestation report of the Company’s registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by our registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit the Company to provide only management’s report in this Annual Report.

Audit Committee and Audit Committee Financial Expert

The Audit Committee assists the Board of Directors in its oversight of the quality and integrity of the accounting, auditing and reporting practices of the Company. The Audit Committee has the authority and responsibility to hire one or more independent auditors to audit the Company’s books, records and financial statements and to review the Company’s systems of accounting (including its systems of internal control), to discuss with such independent auditors the results of such audit and review, to conduct periodic independent reviews of the systems of accounting (including systems of internal control), and to make reports periodically to the Board of Directors with respect to its findings. The Board of Directors has determined that each Audit Committee member has sufficient knowledge in financial and auditing matters to serve on the Committee. The committee is also responsible for making recommendations to the Board of Directors or otherwise acting with respect to corporate governance matters, including board size and membership qualifications, new director orientation, committee structure and membership, communications with shareholders, and board and committee self-evaluations. The Audit Committee operates under a written charter adopted by our Board of Directors.

The members of the Audit Committee are independent of the Company (as defined under Rule 4200(a)(15) of the NASDAQ Marketplace Rules). We currently do not have a member of the Audit Committee that is a “financial expert” as defined under Item 407 of Regulation S-B.

Code of Ethics

A code of ethics relates to written standards that are reasonably designed to deter wrongdoing and to promote:

	·	Honest and ethical conduct, including the ethical handling of actual or apparent conflicts of interest between personal and professional relationships;

	·	Full, fair, accurate, timely and understandable disclosure in reports and documents that are filed with, or submitted to, the SEC and in other public communications made by an issuer;

	·	Compliance with applicable governmental laws, rules and regulations;

	·	The prompt internal reporting of violations of the code to an appropriate person or persons identified in the code; and

	·	Accountability for adherence to the code.

Due to the limited scope of our current operations, we have not adopted a corporate code of ethics that applies to its principal executive officer, principal accounting officer, or persons performing similar functions.

Indemnification

Under Delaware law and pursuant to our articles of incorporation and bylaws, we may indemnify our officers and directors for various expenses and damages resulting from their acting in these capacities. Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to our officers or directors pursuant to those provisions, our counsel has informed us that, in the opinion of the SEC, this indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act, and is therefore unenforceable.

Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting

Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, requires that directors, executive officers and persons who own more than 10% of the outstanding common stock of certain reporting companies file initial reports of ownership and reports of changes in ownership in such common stock with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). Officers, directors and stockholders who own more than 10% of the outstanding common stock of certain reporting companies are required by the SEC to furnish such companies with copies of all Section 16(a) reports they file. We are required to comply with Section 16(a). Accordingly, stock ownership information contained in this report is based on what is known to us.

Each employment contract immediately terminates upon death or disability, and may be terminated by the Company either with or without cause after 30 days notice, or terminated by the officer for good reason with 60 days notice.
