PROSPECTUS SUMMARY
Our company, which is located in Shanghai, China, specializes in the
development, production, sale, and distribution of disinfectant health care
products through our Likang subsidiary. We manufacture and sell disinfectant
products in tablet, liquid, powder and aerosol form as well as disinfectant
instruments, devices, and materials such as the air disinfection machine, hot
press bag, and disinfection swabs. Our products are utilized by the medical
industry in China. Recently we have made efforts to expand our customer base and
penetrate the civil disinfection, industrial disinfection, livestock and
agricultural disinfection markets of China. While we sell our products to
approximately 5,000 active and recurring customers including hospitals, medical
suppliers and distribution companies throughout China, two affiliated companies
represent approximately 36% and approximately 40% of our net revenues for the
fiscal 2005 and fiscal 2004, respectively, and approximately 58% of our net
revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2006.
We regard Likang's operations as our primary business. We own 90% of
Likang, with the remaining 10% being owned by Shanghai Shanhai Group, an
unaffiliated third party. Shanghai Shanhai Group, which provides domestic
trading, storage and consulting services, is owned by Shanghai Shanhai Group
Employee Share-holding Committee (16.25%) and Shanghai Baoshan District Dachang
Town South Village Economic Cooperation Club (83.75%). Both of these entities
are owned by the employees of Shanghai Shanhai Group. Neither Shanghai Shanhai
Group or either of its two shareholders are involved in Likang's operations nor
do they exercise any management control.
Our principal executive offices are located at No. 476 Hutai Branch
Road, Baoshan District, Shanghai, China, and our telephone number is
(86)21-566893332. Our fiscal year end is December 31.
When used in this prospectus, the terms "Linkwell" "we," and "us"
refers to Linkwell Corporation, a Florida corporation, our wholly-owned
subsidiary Linkwell Tech Group, Inc., a Florida corporation ("Linkwell Tech")
and Linkwell Tech's 90% owned subsidiary Shanghai Likang Disinfectant High-Tech
Company, Limited ("Likang"). The information which appears on our web site at
www.linkwell.us is not part of this prospectus.

Selected Consolidated Financial Data
The following summary financial information has been derived from the
financial statements that are included elsewhere in this prospectus. In June
2004 Linkwell Tech acquired 90% of Likang through a stock exchange which was
accounted for as a reverse acquisition under the purchase method for business
combinations. The combination was recorded as a recapitalization of Likang and
Linkwell Tech was treated as the continuing entity for accounting purposes. In
May 2005, we acquired Linkwell Tech through a stock exchange. For financial
accounting purposes, the share exchange between our company and Linkwell Tech
was treated as a recapitalization of our company with the former shareholders of
our company retaining approximately 12.5% of the outstanding stock. Our
consolidated financials statements included elsewhere in this prospectus for the
periods after the date of the stock exchange between our company and Linkwell
Tech reflect the change in the capital structure of our company due to the
recapitalization. The consolidated financial statements for fiscal year ended
December 31, 2005 and the six months ended June 30, 2006 reflect the operations
of our company including Linkwell Tech and Likang for the periods presented. The
historical operating results for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2004 are
those of Likang as a result of these transactions.

RISK FACTORS
Before you invest in our securities, you should be aware that there are
various risks. You should consider carefully these risk factors, together with
all of the other information included in this prospectus before you decide to
purchase our securities. If any of the following risks and uncertainties develop
into actual events, our business, financial condition or results of operations
could be materially adversely affected and you could lose your entire investment
in our company.
Risks Related to our Company
We engage in a number of material transactions with related parties which could
result in a conflict of interest involving our management.
We are materially dependent on certain related party transactions in
the ongoing conduct of our business. Sales to our affiliates Shanghai Likang
Pharmaceuticals Technology Company, Limited and Shanghai Likang Meirui
Pharmaceutical High-Tech Co., Ltd. represented approximately 36% of our total
net revenues in fiscal 2005 and approximately 44.5% of our accounts receivable
at December 31, 2005. For the six months ended June 30, 2006, sales to these two
related parties, as well as sales to Shanghai Likang Biological High-Tech
Company, Ltd., a company owned by our executive officers, represented
approximately 58% of our total net revenues and approximately 54% of our
accounts receivable at June 30, 2006. In addition, we lease our principal
executive officers from Shanghai Shanhai Group, the minority shareholder of our
-4-
<page>
Likang subsidiary, and Shanghai Likang Meirui Pharmaceutical High-Tech Co., Ltd,
an affiliated company of this minority shareholder, both supplies us with raw
materials and acts as a contract manufacturer for certain of our products. We
have also engaged in an number of other related party transactions including
extending working capital loans to Shanghai Likang Pharmaceuticals Technology
Company, Limited and Shanghai Likang Biological High-Tech Company, Ltd.,
purchasing real property from Shanghai Likang Pharmaceuticals Technology
Company, Limited and utilizing the services of Shanghai Likang Biological
High-Tech Company, Ltd. to process certain of our products. These affiliated
transactions may from time to time result in a conflict of interest for our
management. Because these transactions are not subject to the approval of our
shareholders, investors in our company are wholly reliant upon the judgment of
our management in these related party transactions.
The management of our company is located in the PRC and we are materially
dependent upon advisory services of a U.S. company.
None of the current members of our management have any experience in U.S. public
companies and these individuals are not fluent in English. We have engaged China
Direct Investments, Inc. to provide us with various advisory and consulting
services, including U.S. business methods and compliance with SEC disclosure
requirements. We selected China Direct Investments, Inc. to provide these
services to us in part because its staff includes Chinese-speaking individuals
with experience in the operation and regulatory framework applicable to U.S.
public companies. Until such time as we are able to expand our board of
directors to include English-speaking individuals who have experience with the
operation and regulatory framework applicable to U.S. public companies, we are
materially dependent upon our relationship with China Direct Investments, Inc.
Our contract with this company expires in December 2006. If for any reason China
Direct Investments, Inc. should fail to provide the contracted services at the
anticipated levels or fails to extend its services and we have not added members
to our board of directors with the requisite experience we may be unable to
prepare and file reports as required by the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 on a
timely basis which could lead to our common stock being removed from the OTCBB.
In this event, your ability to liquidate your investment would be negatively
impacted and you could lose your entire investment in our company.
We extend relatively long payment terms for accounts receivable, including on
sales to related parties, which can negatively impact our cash flows.
As is customary in the PRC, we extend relatively long payment terms to
our customers, including on sales to related parties. Our terms of sale
generally require payment within four to six months, which is considerably
longer than customary terms offered in the United States. For fiscal 2005, the
average turn on accounts receivable from non-related third parties was 127 days
and the average turn on accounts receivable from related parties as 106 days.
For the six months ended June 30, 2006, the average turn on accounts receivable
from non-related third parties was 171 days and the average turn on accounts
receivable from related parties was 122 days. We also occasionally offer
established customers, including related parties, longer payment terms of up to
240 days on new products as an incentive to purchase these products, which has
served to further increase the average days outstanding for accounts receivable.
In addition, we maintain a relatively low reserve for doubtful accounts when
compared to a company operating in the U.S. Our payment terms can have the
effect of adversely impacting our cash flow and our ability to fund our
operations out of our operating cash flow. Our ability to continue to implement
our growth strategy could suffer if our cash flows are adversely impacted which
will have the effect of limiting our ability to increase our revenues in the
future.
-5-
<page>
Certain agreements to which we are a party and which are material to our
operations lack various legal protections which are customarily contained in
similar contracts prepared in the United States.
We are a Chinese company and all of our business and operations are
conducted in China. We are a party to certain material contracts, including an
agreement for the lease for our principal offices and manufacturing facility.
While these contracts contain the basic business terms of the agreements between
the parties, these contracts do not contain certain provisions which are
customarily contained in similar contracts prepared in the U.S., such as
representations and warranties of the parties, confidentiality and non-compete
clauses, provisions outlining events of defaults, and termination and
jurisdictional clauses. Because our material contracts omit these types of
clauses, notwithstanding the differences in Chinese and U.S. laws we may not
have the same legal protections as we would if the contracts contained these
additional provisions. We anticipate that contracts we enter into in the future
will likewise omit these types of legal protections. While we have not been
subject to any adverse consequences as a result of the omission of these types
of clauses, and we consider the contracts to which we are a party to contain all
the material terms of our business arrangements with the other party, future
events may occur which lead to a dispute under agreements which could have been
avoided if the contracts were prepared in conformity with U.S. standards.
Contractual disputes which may arise from this lack of legal protections will
divert management's time from the operation of our business and require us to
expend funds attempting in settling a possible dispute. This possible diversion
of management time will limit the time our management would otherwise devote to
the operation of our business, and the diversion of capital could limit the
funds we have available to pay our ongoing operating expenses.
Each of our product groups operate in highly competitive businesses.
Each of our product groups is subject to competition from other
manufacturers of similar products. There are approximately 1,000 manufacturers
of similar disinfectant products in China, but only approximately 30
manufacturers, including our company, operate on a continuous basis with the
remainder of the companies periodically entering the market in times of
increased demand. While we believe we are one of the leading manufacturers of
disinfectant products in the PRC, from time to time there is a sporadic
oversupply of these products which can adversely impact our market share and
competitive position in this product group. As a result, we may not be able to
effectively compete in our product segments which could have the effect of
limiting our ability to sustain our current level of operations or grow our
revenues in future periods.
Because of the specialized, technical nature of the business, we are highly
dependent on certain members of management, as well as our marketing,
engineering and technical staff.
The loss of the services of our current management and skill employees
could have a material and negative effect on our ability to effectively pursue
our business strategy. In addition to manufacturing high volumes of our products
and developing new products, we must attract, recruit and retain a sizeable
workforce of technically competent employees, including additional skilled and
experienced managerial, marketing, engineering and technical personnel. If we
are unable to do so, our ability to grow our business and increase our revenues
could be limited.
-6-
<page>
If we experience customer concentration, we may be exposed to all of the risks
faced by our remaining material customers.
For the fiscal year ended December 31, 2005 and the six months ended
June 30, 2006 revenues from one customer, Shanghai Likang Pharmaceuticals
Technology Company, Limited, an affiliate, represented approximately 36% and
approximately 58%, respectively, of our total net revenues. Unless we maintain
multiple customer relationships, it is likely that we will experience periods
during which we will be highly dependent on a limited number of customers.
Dependence on a few customers could make it difficult to negotiate attractive
prices for our products and could expose us to the risk of substantial losses if
a single dominant customer stops conducting business with us. Moreover, to the
extent that we are dependent on any single customer, we are subject to the risks
faced by that customer to the extent that such risks impede the customer's
ability to stay in business and make timely payments to us.
We depend on factories to manufacture our products, which may be insufficiently
insured against damage or loss.
We have no direct business operation, other than our ownership of our
subsidiaries located in China, and our results of operations and financial
condition are currently solely dependent on our subsidiaries' factories in
China. We do not currently maintain insurance to protect against damage and loss
to our facilities and other leasehold improvements. Therefore, any material
damage to, or the loss of, any of our facilities due to fire, severe weather,
flooding or other cause, would not be shared with an insurance company, and if
large enough, would have a material and negative effect on our financial
condition. If the damage was significant, we could be forced to stop operations
until such time as the faculties could be repaired.
Our operations are subject to government regulation. If we fail to comply with
the applicable regulations, our ability to operate in future periods could be in
jeopardy.
We are subject to various state and local environmental laws related to
our business. We are subject to local food, drug, environmental laws related to
certification of manufacturing and distributing of any disinfectant. We are also
licensed by the Shanghai City Government to manufacture and distribute
disinfectants. While we are in substantial compliance with all provisions of
those registrations, inspections and licenses and have no reason to believe that
they will not be renewed as required by the applicable rules of the Central
Government and the Shandong Province, any non-renewal of these authorities could
result in the cessation of our business activities.
We may not have sufficient protection of certain of our intellectual property.
We utilize certain technologies in the purification of raw material
used in our products which are proprietary in nature. We are not a party to any
confidentiality or similar agreements with employees and third parties including
consultants, vendors and customers and it not likely that we will enter into
these type of agreements in the future. It is possible that our employees or a
third party could, without authorization, utilize our propriety technologies
without our consent. The unauthorized use of this proprietary information by
third parties could adversely affect our business and operations as well as any
competitive advantage we may have in our market segment. We may not have
adequate remedies for the protection of our proprietary technologies and these
proprietary technologies could become known or independently developed by
competitors, in which event our ability to effectively compete could be in
jeopardy.
-7-
<page>
We have not voluntarily implemented various corporate governance measures, in
the absence of which, shareholders may have reduced protections against
interested director transactions, conflicts of interest and other matters.
We are not subject to any law, rule or regulation requiring that we
adopt any of the corporate governance measures that are required by the rules of
national securities exchanges such as independent directors and audit
committees. It is possible that if we were to adopt some or all of the corporate
governance measures, shareholders would benefit from somewhat greater assurances
that internal corporate decisions were being made by disinterested directors and
that policies had been implemented to define responsible conduct. Prospective
investors should bear consider our current lack of corporate governance measures
in formulating their investment decisions.
Risks Related to Doing Business in China
Our operations are located in the PRC and are subject to changes resulting from
the political and economic policies of the Chinese government.
Our business operations could be restricted by the political
environment in the PRC. The PRC has operated as a socialist state since 1949 and
is controlled by the Communist Party of China. In recent years, however, the
government has introduced reforms aimed at creating a "socialist market economy"
and policies have been implemented to allow business enterprises greater
autonomy in their operations. Changes in the political leadership of the PRC may
have a significant effect on laws and policies related to the current economic
reforms program, other policies affecting business and the general political,
economic and social environment in the PRC, including the introduction of
measures to control inflation, changes in the rate or method of taxation, the
imposition of additional restrictions on currency conversion and remittances
abroad, and foreign investment. Moreover, economic reforms and growth in the PRC
have been more successful in certain provinces than in others, and the
continuation or increases of such disparities could affect the political or
social stability of the PRC.
Although we believe that the economic reform and the macroeconomic
measures adopted by the Chinese government have had a positive effect on the
economic development of China, the future direction of these economic reforms is
uncertain and the uncertainty may decrease the attractiveness of our company as
an investment, which may in turn result in a decline in the trading price of our
common stock.
The Chinese government exerts substantial influence over the manner in which we
must conduct our business activities.
The PRC only recently has permitted provincial and local economic
autonomy and private economic activities. The government of the PRC has
exercised and continues to exercise substantial control over virtually every
sector of the Chinese economy through regulation and state ownership.
Accordingly, government actions in the future, including any decision not to
continue to support recent economic reforms and to return to a more centrally
planned economy or regional or local variations in the implementation of
economic policies, could have a significant effect on economic conditions in the
PRC or particular regions thereof, and could require us to divest ourselves of
any interest we then hold in Chinese properties.
-8-
<page>
Future inflation in China may inhibit economic activity in China.
In recent years, the Chinese economy has experienced periods of rapid
expansion and high rates of inflation. During the past 10 years, the rate of
inflation in China has been as high as 20.7% and as low as -2.2%. These factors
have led to the adoption by the PRC government, from time to time, of various
corrective measures designed to restrict the availability of credit or regulate
growth and contain inflation. While inflation has been more moderate since 1995,
high inflation may in the future cause the PRC government to impose controls on
credit and/or prices, or to take other action, which could inhibit economic
activity in China. Any actions by the PRC government to regulate growth and
contain inflation could have the effect of limiting our ability to grow our
revenues in future periods.
Any recurrence of severe acute respiratory syndrome, or SARS, or another
widespread public health problem, could interrupt our operations.
A renewed outbreak of SARS or another widespread public health problem
in China, where all of our revenue is derived, and in Shanghai, where our
operations are headquartered, could have a negative effect on our operations.
Our operations may be impacted by a number of health-related factors, including
the following:
o quarantines or closures of some of our offices which would severely
disrupt our operations,
o the sickness or death of our key officers and employees, or o a
general slowdown in the Chinese economy.
Any of the foregoing events or other unforeseen consequences of public
health problems could result in a loss of revenues in future periods and could
impact our ability to conduct our operations as they are presently conducted. If
we were unable to continue our operations as they are now conducted, our
revenues in future periods would decline and our ability to continue as a going
concern could be in jeopardy. If we were unable to continue as a going concern,
you could lose your entire investment in our company.
Restrictions on currency exchange may limit our ability to receive and use our
revenues effectively.
Because all of our revenues are in the form of Renminbi, any future
restrictions on currency exchanges may limit our ability to use revenue
generated in Renminbi to fund any future business activities outside China or to
make dividend or other payments in U.S. dollars. Although the Chinese government
introduced regulations in 1996 to allow greater convertibility of the Renminbi
for current account transactions, significant restrictions still remain,
including primarily the restriction that foreign-invested enterprises may only
buy, sell or remit foreign currencies, after providing valid commercial
documents, at those banks authorized to conduct foreign exchange business. In
addition, conversion of Renminbi for capital account items, including direct
investment and loans, is subject to government approval in China, and companies
are required to open and maintain separate foreign exchange accounts for capital
account items. We cannot be certain that the Chinese regulatory authorities will
not impose more stringent restrictions on the convertibility of the Renminbi,
especially with respect to foreign exchange transactions.
-9-
<page>
We may be unable to enforce our rights due to policies regarding the regulation
of foreign investments in China.
The PRC's legal system is a civil law system based on written statutes
in which decided legal cases have little value as precedents, unlike the common
law system prevalent in the United States. The PRC does not have a
well-developed, consolidated body of laws governing foreign investment
enterprises. As a result, the administration of laws and regulations by
government agencies may be subject to considerable discretion and variation, and
may be subject to influence by external forces unrelated to the legal merits of
a particular matter. China's regulations and policies with respect to foreign
investments are evolving. Definitive regulations and policies with respect to
such matters as the permissible percentage of foreign investment and permissible
rates of equity returns have not yet been published. Statements regarding these
evolving policies have been conflicting and any such policies, as administered,
are likely to be subject to broad interpretation and discretion and to be
modified, perhaps on a case-by-case basis. The uncertainties regarding such
regulations and policies present risks which may affect our ability to achieve
our business objectives. If we are unable to enforce any legal rights we may
have under our contracts or otherwise, our ability to compete with other
companies in our industry could be limited which could result in a loss of
revenue in future periods which could impact our ability to continue as a going
concern.
It may be difficult for shareholders to enforce any judgment obtained in the
United States against us, which may limit the remedies otherwise available to
our shareholders.
All of our assets are located outside the United States and all of our
current operations are conducted in China. Moreover, all of our directors and
officers are nationals or residents of China. All or a substantial portion of
the assets of these persons are located outside the United States. As a result,
it may be difficult for our shareholders to effect service of process within the
United States upon these persons. In addition, there is uncertainty as to
whether the courts of China would recognize or enforce judgments of U.S. courts
obtained against us or such officers and/or directors predicated upon the civil
liability provisions of the securities law of the United States or any state
thereof, or be competent to hear original actions brought in China against us or
such persons predicated upon the securities laws of the United States or any
state thereof.
Risks Related to this Offering
If the selling security holders all elect to sell their shares of our common
stock at the same time, the market price of our shares may decrease.
It is possible that the selling security holders will offer all of the
shares for sale. Further, because it is possible that a significant number of
shares could be sold at the same time hereunder, the sales, or the possibility
thereof, may have a depressive effect on the market price of our common stock.
Provisions of our articles of incorporation and bylaws may delay or prevent a
take-over which may not be in the best interests of our shareholders.
Provisions of our articles of incorporation and bylaws may be deemed to
have anti-takeover effects, which include when and by whom special meetings of
our shareholders may be called, and may delay, defer or prevent a takeover
attempt. In addition, certain provisions of the Nevada Revised Statutes also may
be deemed to have certain anti-takeover effects which include that control of
shares acquired in excess of certain specified thresholds will not possess any
voting rights unless these voting rights are approved by a majority of a
corporation's disinterested shareholders.
-10-
<page>
In addition, our articles of incorporation authorize the issuance of up
to 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock with such rights and preferences as may
be determined from time to time by our Board of Directors, of which no shares
are currently outstanding. Our Board of Directors may, without shareholder
approval, issue preferred stock with dividends, liquidation, conversion, voting
or other rights that could adversely affect the voting power or other rights of
the holders of our common stock.
Our stock price will fluctuate and could subject our company to litigation.
The market price of our common stock may fluctuate significantly in
response to a number of factors, some of which are beyond its control. These
factors include:
o quarterly variations in operating results;
o changes in accounting treatments or principles;
o additions or departures of key personnel;
o stock market price and volume fluctuations of publicly-traded
companies in general and Chinese-based companies in
particular; and
o general political, economic and market conditions.
Because our stock currently trades below $5.00 per share, and is quoted on the
OTC Bulletin Board, our stock is considered a "penny stock" which can adversely
affect its liquidity.
As the trading price of our common stock is less than $5.00 per share,
our common stock is considered a "penny stock," and trading in our common stock
is subject to the requirements of Rule 15g-9 under the Securities Exchange Act
of 1934. Under this rule, broker/dealers who recommend low-priced securities to
persons other than established customers and accredited investors must satisfy
special sales practice requirements. The broker/dealer must make an
individualized written suitability determination for the purchaser and receive
the purchaser's written consent prior to the transaction.
SEC regulations also require additional disclosure in connection with
any trades involving a "penny stock," including the delivery, prior to any penny
stock transaction, of a disclosure schedule explaining the penny stock market
and its associated risks. These requirements severely limit the liquidity of
securities in the secondary market because few broker or dealers are likely to
undertake these compliance activities. In addition to the applicability of the
penny stock rules, other risks associated with trading in penny stocks could
also be price fluctuations and the lack of a liquid market.
This prospectus permits selling security holders to resell their shares. If they
do so, the market price for our shares may fall and purchasers of our shares may
be unable to resell them.
This prospectus includes 55,631,011 shares being offered by existing
shareholders, including 18,885,896 shares of common stock which are presently

If this occurs the market price for our shares may decline significantly and
investors may be unable to sell their shares at a profit, or at all.

We have not voluntarily implemented various corporate governance measures, in
the absence of which, shareholders may have more limited protections against
interested director transactions, conflicts of interest and similar matters.
Recent Federal legislation, including the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002,
has resulted in the adoption of various corporate governance measures designed
to promote the integrity of the corporate management and the securities markets.
Some of these measures have been adopted in response to legal requirements.
Others have been adopted by companies in response to the requirements of
national securities exchanges, such as the NYSE or The Nasdaq Stock Market, on
which their securities are listed. Among the corporate governance measures that
are required under the rules of national securities exchanges and Nasdaq are
those that address board of directors' independence, audit committee oversight,
and the adoption of a code of ethics. Because our stock is not listed on an
exchange or quoted on Nasdaq, we are not required to adopt these corporate
governance standards. While our board of directors has adopted a Code of
Business Conduct and Ethics, our Board has not established Audit and
Compensation Committees and we have not adopted all of the corporate governance
measures which we might otherwise have been required to adopt if our securities
were listed on a national securities exchange or Nasdaq. It is possible that if
we were to adopt all of these corporate governance measures, shareholders would
benefit from somewhat greater assurances that internal corporate decisions were
being made by disinterested directors and that policies had been implemented to
define responsible conduct. Prospective investors should bear in mind our
current lack of corporate governance measures in formulating their investment
decisions.

Dividend Policy
We have never paid cash dividends on our common stock. Payment of
dividends will be within the sole discretion of our Board of Directors and will
depend, among other factors, upon our earnings, capital requirements and our
operating and financial condition. At the present time, our anticipated
financial capital requirements are such that we intend to follow a policy of
retaining earnings in order to finance the development of our business.
While we have no current intention of paying dividends on our common
stock, should we decide in the future to do so, as a holding company, our
ability to pay dividends and meet other obligations depends upon the receipt of
dividends or other payments from our operating subsidiaries. In addition, our
operating subsidiaries, from time to time, may be subject to restrictions on
their ability to make distributions to us, including as a result of restrictive
covenants in loan agreements, restrictions on the conversion of local currency
into U.S. dollars or other hard currency and other regulatory restrictions.

USE OF PROCEEDS
We will not receive any proceeds upon the sale of shares by the selling
security holders. Any proceeds that we receive from the exercise of outstanding
warrants will be used by us for general working capital. The actual allocation
of proceeds realized from the exercise of these securities will depend upon the
amount and timing of such exercises, our operating revenues and cash position at
such time and our working capital requirements. There can be no assurances that
any of the outstanding warrants will be exercised. Pending utilization of any
proceeds from the exercise of warrants, the proceeds will be deposited in
interest bearing accounts or invested in money market instruments, government
obligations, certificates of deposits or similar short-term investment grade
interest bearing investments.
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
OR PLAN OF OPERATION
Overview
In May 2005, we closed a share exchange agreement with all of the
shareholders of Linkwell Tech under which we acquired 100% of the issued and
outstanding shares of Linkwell Tech's common stock in exchange for 36,273,470
shares of our common stock, which at closing represented approximately 87.5% of
the issued and outstanding shares of our common stock. As a result of the
transaction, Linkwell Tech became our wholly owned subsidiary. In June, 2004,
prior to our share exchange with Linkwell Tech, Linkwell Tech acquired 90% of
Likang through a stock exchange with Shanghai Likang Pharmaceuticals Technology
Company, Limited, the then 90% shareholder of Likang. Shanghai Likang
Pharmaceuticals Technology Company, Limited is owned by Messrs. Xuelian Bian and
Wei Guan, our officer, directors and principal shareholders. Shanghai Shanhai
Group, an unaffiliated third party, owns the remaining 10% of Likang. The
transaction in which Linkwell Tech acquired the 90% interest in Likang resulted
in the formation of a U.S. holding company by Messrs. Bian and Guan as it did
not result in a change in the underlying ownership interests of Likang. For
financial accounting purposes, the reverse merger transaction in which we
acquired Linkwell Tech was treated as a recapitalization of our company with the
former shareholders of the company retaining approximately 12.5% of the
outstanding stock. We regard Likang's business of disinfectant products for the
commercial medical industry as the primary segment of our business. Our
consolidated financials statements included elsewhere in this prospectus for the
periods after the date of the stock exchange between our company and Linkwell
Tech reflect the change in the capital structure of our company due to the
recapitalization. The consolidated financial statements for the six months ended
June 30, 2006 and the fiscal year ended December 30, 2005 reflect the operations
of our company including Linkwell Tech and Likang for the periods presented
while the results of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2006 are those
of Likang for the period prior to May 2005 and of Linkwell Tech and Linkwell
from May 2005 to June 30, 2005.
Since 1988 we have developed, manufactured and distributed disinfectant
health care products primarily to the medical industry in China. In the last few
years China has witnessed a variety of public health crises, such as the
outbreak of SARS, which demonstrated the need for increased health standards in
China. In response, beginning in 2002 the Chinese government has undertaken
various initiatives to improve public health and living standards, including
continuing efforts to educate the public about the need for proper sanitation
procedures and the establishment of production standards for the disinfectant
industry in China. As a result of this heightened license and permit system, all
disinfectant manufacturers must comply with "qualified disinfection product
-15-
<page>
manufacturing enterprise requirements" established by the Ministry of Public
Health. The requirements include standards for both hardware; including
facilities and machinery, and software; including the technology to monitor the
facilities, as well as the knowledge and capability of both the production staff
and quality control procedures. Following the adoption of the industry standards
in 2002, we have been granted 26 hygiene licenses by the Ministry of Public
Health.
We believe that the government standards adopted in July 2002 have
increased the barriers to entry for competitors in the disinfectant industry in
China. The implementation of these improved production standards and license
requirements has effectively decreased the competitiveness of small to mid size
manufacturers since the new standards are especially difficult for companies
with limited product offerings and inferior technical content. In addition,
prior to the adoption of industry standards, disinfectant products were
generally marketed and sold based on price as opposed to quality. We believe
that as a result of the adoption of industry standards, the marketplace is
evolving to a more stringent focus on product quality which we believe will
enable us to increase our base of commercial customers thereby increasing our
revenues.
Historically our focus has been on the commercial distribution of our
products. Our customers include hospitals, medical suppliers and distribution
companies throughout China. Recently we have made efforts to expand our
distribution reach to the retail market. We have repackaged certain of our
commercial disinfectant products for sale to the consumer market and have begun
to expand our customer base to include hotels, schools, supermarkets, and
drugstores. By virtue of the Chinese government's continuing focus on educating
the Chinese population about the benefits of proper sanitation procedures, we
believe that another key to increasing our revenues is the continued expansion
of the retail distribution of our products.
The disinfectant industry in China is an emerging industry and the
industry is populated with small, regional companies. We estimate that there are
in excess of 1,000 manufacturers and distributors of disinfectant products in
China; however, most domestic competitors offer a limited line of products and
there are few domestic companies with a nationwide presence. We believe that our
national marketing and sales presence throughout all 22 provinces, as well as
four autonomous regions, and four municipalities of China gives us a competitive
advantage over many other disinfectant companies in China and will enable us to
leverage the brand awareness for products with commercial customers to the
retail marketplace.
Our present manufacturing facilities and production capacities are
sufficient for the foreseeable future, and we believe that we otherwise have the
assets and capital available to us necessary to enable us to increase our
revenues in future periods as the overall market for disinfectant products in
China continues to increase. During the balance of fiscal 2006 we will continue
to focus our efforts on developing a retail market for our products, as well as
expanding our traditional base of commercial customers. In this regard, we have
allocated approximately $300,000 from our recent private offering to be used
towards expanded marketing of our products in the PRC and approximately $400,000
for costs associated with investigating the feasibility of expanding our sales
outside the PRC to the U.S. In addition, we may also consider the possible
acquisition of independent sales networks which could be used to increase our
product distribution as well as smaller, regional companies in our industry.
While we have allocated approximately $400,000 of proceeds from our recent
private offering, we have not identified any potential acquisition targets.

Sale of Aerisys Incorporated
Prior to the transaction with Linkwell, our wholly-owned subsidiary,
Aerisys Incorporated, had represented our sole operations. Aerisys marketed and
sold the Aerisys Intelligent Community (TM), a web-based software program and
private, browser-based intranet product that allows schools to collaborate with
parents and faculty each day on classroom homework, assignments, critical dates,
team priorities and school news in a private forum, primarily to K through 12
private schools. Revenues from Aerisys Incorporated represented slightly less
than 1% of our total net revenues for the year ended December 31, 2005, and we
were not able to improve sales or business opportunities for Aerisys since May
2005. In February 2006 we sold 100% of the stock of Aerisys Incorporated to Mr.
Gary Verdier, our former CEO, in exchange for assumption of all liabilities and
obligation of Aerisys Incorporated.

Net revenues
Net revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2006 were $3,331,777 as
compared to net revenues of $2,120,027 for the six months ended June 30, 2005,
an increase of $1,211,750, or approximately 57.2%.
We believe our increase in our net revenues in the six months ended
June 30, 2006 was attributable to a recent surge in demand for disinfectant
products. Recent health scares such as SARS and the avian flu have increased the
public awareness of health standards in China. In response the Chinese
government has implemented a series of initiatives to establish minimum health
standards. As a result, public demand for disinfectant products has increased.
In addition, during fiscal 2005 we raised our prices on some of our more popular
products, including our Ai'ershi disinfectant tablets and our An'erdian skin
disinfectant, in certain of our markets. Approximately 11% of the increase in
revenues we reported for the six months ended June 30, 2006 from the comparable
period in fiscal 2005 is attributable to an increase in the volume of products
sold, which includes both new products introduced during fiscal 2005 as well as
increased sales of other products, and approximately 89% of the increase in
revenues is attributable to the increase in average selling prices. We cannot be
assured that demand will continue to increase. Additionally we introduced new
products such as Jifro 4% Chlorhexidine Gluconate, Dianerkang, 2% glutaraldehyde
disinfectant, and the revised 84' disinfectant. Initially, these products have
been received favorably by the public. There is no assurance that these products
will continue to witness increased public demand.
Of our total net revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2006,
approximately 58% were attributable to sales to related parties and
approximately 42% were attributable to sales to third parties, as compared to
approximately 38% and approximately 62%, respectively, for the six months ended
June 30, 2005. Included in our net revenues for the six months ended June 30,
2006 were revenues of $1,920,473 from sales of our products to Shanghai Likang
Pharmaceuticals Technology Company, Limited, an affiliated entity, an increase
of $1,126,906, or approximately 142%, from the six months ended June 30, 2005.
Also included in our net revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2006 were
revenues of $7,949 from sales of our products to Shanghai Likang Meirui
Pharmaceuticals High-Tech Co., Ltd., an affiliate, a decrease of $972 or
approximately 14%, from the six months ended June 30, 2005, as well as revenues
of $893 and $0 from sales of raw materials to Shanghai Likang Biological
High-Tech Company, Ltd., an affiliate, for the six months ended June 30, 2006
and 2005. While we increased sales to non-related parties approximately 6.5% for
the six months ended June 30, 2006 from the comparable period in fiscal 2005,
sales to related parties increased $1,126,827, or approximately 140%, which
accounts for our significant increase in revenues for the first six months of
fiscal 2006 from the first six months of fiscal 2005. Shanghai Likang
Pharmaceuticals Technology Company, Limited sells our products using 72
independent sales representatives in other provinces of China. We primarily
attribute this increase in related party sales to the effects of the overall
demand for disinfectant products which has increased orders from Shanghai Likang
Pharmaceuticals Technology Company, Limited's customers for our products.
Cost of sales
Cost of sales includes raw materials and manufacturing costs, which
includes labor, rent and an allocated portion of overhead expenses such as
utilities directly related to product production. For the six months ended June
30, 2006, cost of sales amounted to $1,990,040 or approximately 59.7% of net
-18-
<page>
revenues as compared to cost of sales of $1,495,659 or approximately 70.0% of
net revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2005. Historically, our costs of
sales comprised as follows; 65% to raw material costs and approximately 35% to
manufacturing costs. We purchase raw materials from six primary suppliers and we
have purchase contracts with these suppliers in an effort to ensure a steady
supply of raw materials. We also purchase raw materials and finished product
from Shanghai Likang Meirui Pharmaceutical High-Tech Co. Ltd., an affiliate.
These purchases totaled $1,453 and $366 for the six months ended June 30, 2006
and 2005, respectively. We have not historically experienced a fluctuation in
raw material prices and do not anticipate that the prices will vary much during
fiscal 2006.
The decrease in cost of sales as a percentage of net revenues for the
six months ended June 30, 2006 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2005
is attributable to the effect of price increases during the later part of fiscal
2005. Included in our overhead costs are rent on our manufacturing facilities
which included a building we leased from Shanghai Likang Pharmaceuticals
Technology Company, Limited, an affiliate, for approximately $11,500 annually,
which we purchased during the later part of fiscal 2005 which served to reduce
certain of our overhead expenses through the elimination of this rent expense;
however, during the later part of fiscal 2005 we leased additional warehouse
facilities under agreements which provide for annual rental of approximately
$37,000 which are reflected in our overhead expenses in the 2006 period. We
experienced an increase in overhead costs such as utilities and rent during the
six months ended June 30, 2006 as compared to the six months ended June 30,
2005.
Gross profit
Gross profit for the six months ended June 30, 2006 was $1,341,737 or
approximately 40.3% of net revenues, as compared to $624,368 or approximately
29.4% of revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2005. The gross profit
reflects an overall increase in our sales prices as we expand into new markets.
For example, our Ai'ershi disinfectant tablets are sold in Shanghai for
approximately $.83 per bottle. However in newer markets such as DongBei
Province, Ai'ershi disinfectant tablets are sold at approximately $1.64 per
bottle. An'erdian skin disinfectant sold for approximately $.36 per bottle in
BeiJing and Shanghai. We currently sell this product in western cities such as
ChongQing and XiAn at approximately $.49 per bottle, an increase of 36%.
Operating expenses
Total operating expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2006 were
$790,245, an increase of $363,515, or approximately 78.6%, from total operating
expenses in the six months ended June 30, 2005 of $426,730. This increase
included the following:
o For the six months ended June 30, 2006, selling expenses amounted to
$205,207 as compared to $108,519 for the six months ended June 30, 2005, an
increase of $96,688 or approximately 89%. This increase is attributable to
consulting fees paid to third parties for the promotion of our certain of our
products to end users. For the six months ended June 30, 2006, these consulting
fees amounted to $45,747 compared to $60 for the six months ended June 30, 2005
an increase of $45,687 or 761%. We anticipate that we will incur similar
consulting expenses in future periods as we develop additional products and
bring those products to market,
-19-
<page>
o For the six months ended June 30, 2006, shipping costs amounted to
$52,309 compared to $40,444 for the six months ended June 30, 2005 an increase
of $11,865 or 29%. This increase was attributable to an increase in sales,
o For the six months ended June 30, 2006, advertising costs amounted to
$15,120 compared to $2,234 for the six months ended June 30, 2005, an increase
of $12,886 or 577%, and which is attributable to our increased marketing
efforts,
o For the six months ended June 30, 2006, repair and maintenance
amounted to $22,063 as compared to $0 for the six months ended June 30, 2005 an
increase of $22,063. Repair and maintenance included machinery maintenance
costs; and
o For the six months ended June 30, 2006 we reported an overall
increase in selling expenses of approximately $4,200 from the comparable period
in fiscal 2006 which are associated with an increase in our operations.
We expect selling expenses to increase as our revenues increase and we
anticipate increased costs related to adverting and promotion of our products as
well as sales training. During fiscal 2006 we intend to expand our marketing
efforts and have set aside approximately $300,000 of the proceeds from our
recent private placement for increased marketing of our products in the PRC
during fiscal 2006.
For the six months ended June 30, 2006, general and administrative
expenses were $585,038 as compared to $318,211 for the six months ended June 30,
2005, an increase of $266,827, or approximately 83.9% and included the
following:
o We incurred consulting fees during the six months ended June 30, 2006
of $134,646 substantially related to the issuance of common stock for business
development and management services related to our administrative operations in
the United States. We did not incur such costs during the six months ended June
30, 2005. We expect these costs to increase in 2006 due to our business
development efforts in the United States,
o For the six months ended June 30, 2006, salaries and wages and
related benefits increased to $195,420 for the six months ended June 30, 2006
from $115,520 in the six months ended 2005 due to the hiring of additional
employees, an increase of approximately $79,900, and
o We incurred additional operating expenses of approximately $52,281
from the comparable period in fiscal 2005 which were associated with increased
labor-related insurance of approximately $25,000 due to an increase in
employees, and an increase in bad debt expense of approximately $29,000 due to
an increase in the allowance for doubtful accounts based on our current analysis
of accounts receivable.
Included in our general and administrative expenses is rent expense of
$34,814, $20,281 of which we paid to Shanghai Shanhai Group, an affiliate, under
lease agreements for various properties. We anticipate that general and
administrative expenses will continue to increase during fiscal 2006 as a result
of increased professional fees related to audit costs and our registration
statement. In addition, we have allocated $400,000 from the proceeds of our
recent private placement for costs, including market research, related to the
possible expansion of the market for our products into the U.S.

Income from operations
We reported income from operations of $551,492 for the six months ended
June 30, 2006 as compared to income from operations of $197,638 for the six
months ended June 30, 2005, an increase of $353,854 or approximately 179%.
Other income (expense)
For the six months ended June 30, 2006 total other expenses amounted to
$60,352 as compared to $21,015 for the six months ended June 30, 2005, an
increase of $39,337. This change is primarily attributable to:
o Interest expense - related party of $12,994 represents interest due
Shanghai Shanhai Company, Likang's minority shareholder, on a demand loan in the
principal amount of $161,533 made to Likang for working capital, together with
$4,687 of fixed return due it on its initial investment in Likang,
o Interest expense was $19,781 as compared to $21,454 for the six
months ended June 30, 2005, a decrease of $1,673 due to decreased borrowings
during the six months ended June 30, 2006,
o An increase in interest income of $1,984 to $2,423 for the six months
ended June 30, 2006 as compared to $439 for the six months ended June 30, 2005,
and,
o An increase in accruals of registration rights penalties of $30,000
incurred due to the fact that our registration statement of which this
prospectus is a part was not declared effective by May 28, 2006. We did not have
a comparable expense for the six months ended June 30, 2005.
Income before discontinued operations, income taxes and minority interest
For the six months ended June 30, 2006 our income before discontinued
operations, income taxes and minority interest is $491,140 as compared to
$176,623 for the six months ended June 30, 2005, an increase of $314,517
primarily as a result of increased net revenues.
Discontinued operations
In January 2006, we sold 100% of the capital stock of our Aerisys
subsidiary to its former CEO in exchange for an assumption of all liabilities
related to it. The gain from discontinued operations of $12,794 in the six
months ended June 30, 2006 represents the gain on disposal of this subsidiary.
For the six months ended June 30, 2005, we had a loss from discontinued
operations of $548.
Minority interest
For the six months ended June 30, 2006, we reported a minority interest
expense of $50,860 as compared to $18,129 for the six months ended June 30,
2005. The minority interest is attributable to Likang's minority shareholder,
and had the effect of reducing our net income.

Net income
We reported net income of $390,692 for the six months ended June 30,
2006 as compared to net income of $127,546 for the six months ended June 30,
2005.
Preferred stock dividends
During the six months ended June 30, 2006, we recorded a preferred
stock dividend of $53,692 which relates accrued but undeclared and unpaid
dividends on our Series B 6% Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock ($1,500,000)
and the reversal of accrued and unpaid dividends on our Series A Preferred Stock
which was converted to common stock in June 2006.
Net income (loss) attributable to common shareholders
We reported net income attributable to common shareholders of $337,000
for the six months ended June 30, 2006 as compared to net loss attributable to
common shareholders of $(172,730) for the six months ended June 30, 2005. This
translates to overall per-share income available to shareholders of $.01 for the
six months ended June 30, 2006 compared to per-share loss of $.00 for the six
months ended June 30, 2005.

Net revenues
Net revenues for fiscal 2005 were $5,465,933 as compared to net
revenues of $4,422,522 for fiscal 2004, an increase of $1,043,411 or
approximately 24%. Included in our net revenues for fiscal 2005 were revenues of
$1,933,043 from sales of our products to Shanghai Likang Pharmaceuticals
Technology Company, Limited, an affiliated entity, an increase of $234,120, or
approximately 14%, from fiscal 2004. Also included in our net revenues for
fiscal 2005 were revenues of $23,987 from sales of our products to Shanghai
Likang Meirui Pharmaceuticals High-Tech Co., Ltd., an affiliate, a decrease of
$43,469, or approximately 64%, from fiscal 2004. We believe our increase in our
net revenues in fiscal 2005 was attributable to a recent surge in demand for
disinfectant products coupled with a modest increase in the sales prices of our
products as we expand into new areas. Recent health scares such as SARS and the
avian flu have increased the public awareness of health standards in China and
in response the Chinese government implemented a series of initiatives to
establish minimum health standards. As a result, public demand for disinfectant
products has increased. We cannot be assured that demand will continue to
increase. Approximately 98% of the increase in revenues we reported from fiscal
2004 to fiscal 2005 is attributable to an increase in the volume of products
sold, which includes both new products introduced during fiscal 2005 as well as
increased sales of other products, and approximately 2% of the increase in
revenues is attributable to the increase in average selling prices. New products
introduced in fiscal 2005 which helped to increase our revenues included Jifro
4% Chlorhexidine Gluconate, Dianerkang, 2% glutaraldehyde disinfectant, and the
revised 84' disinfectant. Initially, these products have been received favorably
by the public. There is no assurance, however, that these products will continue
to witness increased public demand.
Cost of sales
Cost of sales includes raw materials and manufacturing costs, which
includes labor, rent and an allocated portion of overhead expenses such as
utilities directly related to product production. For fiscal 2005, cost of sales
amounted to $3,329,444 or approximately 61% of net revenues as compared to cost
of sales of $3,049,764 or approximately 69% of net revenues for fiscal 2004.
Historically, our costs of sales is attributable approximately 65% to raw
material costs and approximately 35% to manufacturing costs. We purchase raw
materials from six primary suppliers and we have signed purchase contracts with
these suppliers in an effort to ensure a steady supply of raw materials. We also
purchase raw materials and finished product from Shanghai Likang Meirui
Pharmaceutical High-Tech Co. Ltd., an affiliate. These purchases totaled $48,489
and $389,400 for fiscal 2005 and fiscal 2004, respectively. We have not
historically experienced a fluctuation in raw material prices and do not
anticipate that the prices will vary much during fiscal 2006. Included in our
overhead costs are rent on our manufacturing facilities which included a
building we leased from Shanghai Likang Pharmaceuticals Technology Company,
Limited, an affiliate, for approximately $11,500 annually. We experienced an
increase in overhead costs such as utilities and rent during fiscal 2005 as
compared to fiscal 2004. As a result of our purchase in fiscal 2005 of facility
we leased from an affiliate we expect rent expense to decrease, but we are
unable to anticipate if the balance of these overhead costs will continue to
increase in fiscal 2006.

<page>
Gross profit
Gross profit for fiscal 2005 was $2,136,489 or approximately 39% of net
revenues, as compared to $1,372,758 or approximately 31% of revenues for the
fiscal 2004. The increase in our gross profit margin reflects an overall
increase in sales prices of our products as we expand into new markets, coupled
with increased sales of our An'erdian Skin Disinfectants which have higher gross
profit margins and greater efficiencies of scale resulting from our overall
revenue increase which help to reduce on a per item basis the amount of our
fixed manufacturing costs included in our cost of sales. Three of our An'erdian
Skin Disinfectant products represented approximately 54% of our total revenues
for fiscal 2005, with an average gross profit margin of 55%, up from 47% of our
total revenues for fiscal 2004 with an average gross profit margin of 42%.
Operating expenses
Total operating expenses for fiscal 2005 were $1,200,813, an increase
of $516,133, or approximately 75%, from total operating expenses in fiscal 2004
of $684,680. This increase included the following:
o For fiscal 2005, selling expenses amounted to $331,258 as compared to
$258,148 for fiscal 2004, an increase of $73,110 or approximately 28%. This
increase is attributable to increased local tax costs and commissions associated
with our increased revenues. We pay local sales tax upon the sales of our
products. Additionally, in 2005, we incurred costs of approximately $14,000 in
connection with sales training conferences. Selling expenses as a percentage of
revenues remained relatively constant at approximately 6%. We expect our selling
expenses to increase as our revenues increase and expect to spend increased
funds on advertising and promotion of our products as well as sales training. We
have set aside approximately $300,000 of the proceeds from our recent private
placement for increased marketing of our products in the PRC during fiscal 2006.
o For fiscal 2005, general and administrative expenses were $869,555 as
compared to $426,532 for fiscal 2004, an increase of $443,023, or approximately
104% and included the following:
o We incurred professional fees of approximately $67,000 in connection
with the audit of our financials statements. Additionally, we experienced an
increase in professional fees related to our corporate SEC filings,
o We incurred consulting fees of approximately $153,000 in fiscal 2005
which were substantially related to the issuance of shares of our common stock
as compensation for business development and management services related to our
administrative operations in the United States. We expect these costs to
increase in fiscal 2006 as we have allocated approximately $400,000 from the
proceeds of our recent private offering for costs, including market research,
related to the possible expansion of the market for our products into the U.S.,
o In 2005, salaries and wages and related benefits increased by
approximately $48,000 to $191,935 from $144,227 in fiscal 2004 due to the hiring
of additional employees, and
o We incurred additional operating expenses including increased
telephone and communications usage, and increase travel and entertainment.
-24-
<page>
Included in our general and administrative expenses is rent expense we
paid on our principal executive offices and warehouse space which we leased from
Shanghai Shanhai Group, an affiliate, of approximately $32,000 a year. We
anticipate that general and administrative expenses will continue to increase
during fiscal 2006 in part as a result of increased professional fees related to
audit costs. In addition, we have allocated $400,000 from the proceeds of our
recent private placement for costs, including market research, related to the
possible expansion of the market for our products into the U.S.
Income from operations
We reported income from operations of $935,676 for fiscal 2005 as
compared to income from operations of $688,078 for fiscal 2004, an increase of
$247,598 or approximately 36%.
Other income (expense)
For fiscal 2005 total other expenses amounted to $101,214 as compared
to $19,782 for fiscal 2004, an increase of $81,432. This change is primarily
attributable to:
o We recognized a registration rights penalty in fiscal 2005 of $44,000
for which we did not have a comparable expense in fiscal 2004. In the terms of
our sale of shares of our Series B 6% Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock and
common stock purchase warrants in fiscal 2005 we agreed to file a registration
statement covering the shares of our common stock underlying those securities.
This non-cash expense represents the possible payment of liquidated damages if
the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part is not declared
effective by May 27, 2006,
o Interest expense, related party, was $25,657 and represents interest
due Shanghai Shanhai Company, Likang's minority shareholder, on a demand loan in
the principal amount of $161,533 made to Likang for working capital together
with the annual fixed return of $9,375 due it through December 2009 upon its
original investment in Likang. We did not have comparable expenses during the
fiscal 2004 period, and
o Interest expense was $42,720 as compared to $29,359 for fiscal 2004,
an increase of $13,361 due to increased borrowings during fiscal 2005.
Income before discontinued operations, income taxes and minority interest
Our income before discontinued operations, income taxes and minority
interest increased by $166,166 for fiscal 2005 as compared to fiscal primarily
as a result of increased net revenues.
Discontinued operations
In January 2006 we sold 100% of the capital stock of our Aerisys
subsidiary to its former CEO in exchange for an assumption of all liabilities
related to it. The loss from discontinued operations in fiscal 2005 represents
the revenues from that subsidiary less the operating and non-operating expenses
related to it.
Minority interest
For fiscal 2005, we reported a minority interest in income of $92,339
as compared to $55,856 for fiscal 2004. The minority interest is attributable to
Likang's minority shareholder, and had the effect of reducing our net income.
-25-
<page>
Net income
As a result of these factors, we reported net income of $544,129 for
fiscal 2005 as compared to net income of $502,708 for fiscal 2004.
Deemed and cumulative preferred stock dividends
During fiscal 2005, we recorded a deemed preferred stock dividend of
$1,800,276 which relates to our Series A Convertible Preferred Stock ($300,276)
and our Series B 6% Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock ($1,500,000). This
non-cash expense related to the beneficial conversion features of those
securities and is recorded with a corresponding credit to paid in capital.
Additionally, for fiscal 2005 we recorded a preferred stock dividend of $11,240
which represents accrued but undeclared and unpaid dividends on our Series A
Convertible Preferred Stock and our Series B 6% Cumulative Convertible Preferred
Stock.
Net income (loss) attributable to common shareholders
We reported a net loss attributable to common shareholders of
$(1,267,387) for fiscal 2005 as compared to net income attributable to common
shareholders of $502,078 in fiscal 2004. This translates to an overall per-share
loss available to shareholders of ($.03) for fiscal 2005 compared to per-share
income of $.02 for fiscal 2004.

At June 30, 2006, we had a cash balance of $1,212,562. As of June 30,
2006, our cash position by geographic area is as follows:
United States $ 1,091
China 1,211,471
$ 1,212,562
Our working capital position increased $252,884 to $2,665,641 at June
30, 2006 from $2,412,757 at December 31, 2005. This increase in working capital
is primarily attributable to an increase of approximately $705,000 in accounts
receivable due us from related parties as discussed below, which was offset by
decreases in cash (approximately $247,000), accounts receivable due from third
parties (approximately $17,600) and inventories (approximately $517,000). The
increase in accounts receivable - related parties and corresponding decreases in
cash and inventories reflects the effects of increased sales during six months
ended June 30, 2006 and the corresponding receivables generated by those sales.
The increase in our current assets of $14,871 at June 30, 2006 as
compared to December 31, 2005 was offset by a decrease in our current
liabilities of $238,013 at June 30, 2006 as compared to December 31, 2005. The
decrease in our current liabilities is primarily attributable to lower payable
and accrued expenses which were offset by an increase in advances from
customers.
At June 30, 2006, our inventories of raw materials, work in process and
finished goods, before a reserve for obsolete inventory totaled $575,442, a
decrease of $515,359, or approximately 47%, from December 31, 2005. At June 30,
2006 we have reserved $124,158 for possible obsolescence of inventories which
represents a minimal increase from inventory reserves at December 31, 2005. Our
management determined the reserve was appropriate based upon its internal
analysis of our sales and anticipated customer demand. We expect to maintain our
inventory at these June 30, 2006 levels in future periods.
At June 30, 2006 our accounts receivable, allowance for doubtful
accounts from third parties was $62,330 as compared to $13,343 at December 31,
2005 and reflects our best estimate of probable losses. As is customary in the
PRC, we extend relatively long payment terms to our customers. Our terms of sale
generally require payment within four to six months, which is considerably
longer than customary terms offered in the United States, however, we believe
that our terms of sale are customary amongst our competitors for our a company
our size within our industry. For fiscal 2005, the average turn on accounts
receivable from non-related third parties was 127 days and the average turn on
accounts receivable from related parties as 106 days. For the six months ended
June 30, 2006, the average turn on accounts receivable from non-related third
parties was 171 days and the average turn on accounts receivable from related
parties was 122 days. The average accounts receivable increased from non-related
third parties from $1,220,136 for the six months ended June 30, 2005 to
$1,338,336 for the six months ended June 30, 2006. This increase caused our
account receivable turnover from non-related parties to decrease from 1.10 to
1.05. Furthermore this caused the average turn on accounts receivable from
non-related third parties to increase from 164 days for the six months ended
-27-
<page>
June 30, 2005 to 171 days for the six months ended June 30, 2006. At December
31, 2005 we had $1,347,163 of accounts receivable, net due from non-related
third parties and $872,370 accounts receivable due from related parties. All of
these amounts have been collected at September 25, 2006. In addition, at June
30, 2006 we had $1,329,508 of accounts receivable, net due from non-related
third parties and $1,577,459 due from related parties. At September 25, 2006
$751,970 of the amount due from non-related third parties and $824,217 of the
amount due from related parties has been collected.
We also occasionally offer established customers, including related
parties, longer payment terms of 240 days on new products as an incentive to
purchase these products, which has served to further increase the average days
outstanding for accounts receivable. As the market for these new products is
established, we will discontinue offering this sales incentive. Generally, a
customer will prepay for an order prior to shipment. At June 30, 2006 our
balance sheet reflected advances from customers of $381,099, an increase of
$254,900, or approximately 202%, from December 31, 2005.
At June 30, 2006 we have accounts receivable due from a related party
in the amount of $1,577,459 which included:
o $1,570,670 in accounts receivable due from Shanghai Likang
Pharmaceuticals Technology Company, Limited for the purchase of products from
us,
o $4,406 accounts receivable due from Shanghai Likang Meirui
Pharmaceutical High-Tech Co. Ltd. for the purchase of products from us, and
o $2,383 accounts receivable due from Shanghai Likang Biological
High-Tech Company, Ltd. for the purchase of products from us.
As described earlier in this section, we sell products to three
affiliated entities. Our terms of sale and settlement on sales to Shanghai
Likang Meirui Pharmaceutical High-Tech Co. Ltd. are the same as we offer third
party customers. Shanghai Likang Pharmaceuticals Technology Company, Limited
purchase products from us on an as needed basis in order to fill customer orders
they have received and do not maintain an inventory of our products. They tender
payment to us upon receipt of payment from their customer. The accounts
receivable from Shanghai Likang Pharmaceuticals Technology Company, Limited are
historically paid within approximately four to six months, which is the same
receivable turn as we experience with our third party customers. We do not
reserve an allowance for doubtful accounts related to accounts receivable due
from related parties. Of the $1,577,459 accounts receivable due from related
parties at June 30, 2006, $1,570,670, or approximately 99.6%, is due from
Shanghai Likang Pharmaceuticals Technology Company, Limited which buys products
from us for resale to non-related third party customers which are primarily
hospitals, clinics and schools with which Shanghai Likang Pharmaceuticals
Technology Company, Limited has maintained long standing business relationships
and have demonstrated an excellent payment history. In addition, our officers
and directors as the owners of Shanghai Likang Pharmaceuticals Technology
Company, Limited and have orally guaranteed payment on all accounts receivable
due our company from this related party.
Sales of product to Shanghai Likang Biological High-Tech Company, Ltd.
are made on a limited basis and consist of certain raw materials used in their
manufacturing process.

Our balance sheet at June 30, 2006 also reflects a loan payable to a
related party of $163,617 which is a working capital loan made to us by Shanghai
Shanhai Group in January 2005. This loan bears interest at 10% per annum and is
due on demand.
Net cash provided by operating activities for the six months ended June
30, 2006 was $196,807 as compared to net cash used in operating activities of
$272,135 for the six months ended June 30, 2005. For the six months ended June
30, 2006, we used cash provided by operations to fund a net increase in accounts
receivable of $605,747, including an increase of $592,025 in accounts
receivables from related parties, and a decrease in accounts payable and accrued
expenses of $488,374. These increases were offset by our net income, a decrease
in inventory and an increase in advances from customers, together with an add
back of non-cash items of $262,383. For the six months ended June 30, 2005, we
used cash to fund a net increase in accounts receivable of $255,497, including
an increase in accounts receivable - related parties of $18,964, an increase in
inventory of $88,004 and a reduction in accounts payable - related parties of
$226,159 which were offset by our net income, increases in prepaid and other
current assets and accounts payable and accrued expenses together with an add
back of non-cash items of $26,966.
Net cash used in investing activities for the six months ended June 30,
2006 was $334,536 as compared to $6,411 for the six months ended June 30, 2005,
an increase of $328,125. This change is attributable to an increase in a deposit
of approximately $250,000 and the purchase of additional manufacturing equipment
during the six months ended June 30, 2006 of $84,739 as compared to an
expenditure of $8,871 on the purchase of manufacturing equipment during the six
months ended June 30, 2005. Additionally, the cash received in acquisition for
the six months ended June 30, 2006 was $0 as compared to $2,460 for the six
months ended June 30, 2005.
Net cash used in financing activities was $116,786 for the six months
ended June 30, 2006 as compared to net cash provided by financing activities of
$125,544 for the six months ended June 30, 2005, a decrease of $242,330. During
the six months ended June 30, 2006, we advanced funds to a related party of
$124,899, repaid loans payable of $24,361 and received proceeds from loans of
$32,474.
We reported a net decrease in cash for the six months ended June 30,
2006 of $247,516 as compared to a net decrease in cash of $153,002 for the six
months ended June 30, 2005.
We currently have no material commitments for capital expenditures. As
of June 30, 2006, we had approximately $637,000 in short term loans maturing
during fiscal 2007. We plan on renewing these loans when they become due at term
comparable to current terms. In addition, in connection with our agreement with
JinMeiHua to operate a job training program as described elsewhere in this
prospectus under "Our Business - Recent Development - Job Training Program,
during the three months ended June 30, 2006 we provided $249,797 towards the
venture and we anticipate that we will be required to provide additional funds
for the venture, but we are unable at this time to quantify the amount. Other
than our working capital and loans, we presently have no other alternative
source of working capital available to us.

Recent Capital Raising Transactions
On June 30, 2005, we completed a $300,000 financing consisting of
375,345 shares of our Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, and common stock
purchase warrants to purchase an additional 3,753,450 shares. We sold these
securities to 12 accredited investors in a private transaction exempt from
registration under the Securities Act in reliance on exemptions provided by
Section 4(2) of that act and Regulation D. Each share of Series A Convertible
Preferred Stock is convertible into 10 shares of common stock. Each warrant
entitles the holder to purchase one share of common stock for a period of five
years, at an exercise price of $.10 per share, subject to adjustment. The net
proceeds from the transaction of approximately $277,000 are being used for
general working capital purposes. In June 2006 the holders of the Series A
Convertible Preferred Stock converted those shares into an aggregate of
3,753,450 shares of our common stock.
On December 28, 2005, we completed a $1,500,000 financing of units of
our securities in a transaction exempt from registration under the Securities
Act in reliance on exemptions provided by Section 4(2) of that act and
Regulation D resulting in gross proceeds to us of $1,500,000. The offering
consisted of 1,500,000 shares of our Series B 6% Cumulative Convertible
Preferred Stock, Class A Common Stock Purchase Warrants to purchase 15,000,000
shares of common stock and Class B Common Stock Purchase Warrants to purchase
15,000,000 shares of common stock. The Class A Warrants are exercisable at $0.20
per share, and the Class B Warrants are exercisable at $0.30 per share, and both
warrants are for a term of five years.
The purchasers of the units were certain accredited institutional and
individual investors. Conversion of the preferred shares and exercise of the
warrants are also subject to a 4.99% cap on the beneficial ownership that each
investor may have at any point in time while the securities are outstanding. We
paid a due diligence fee of $65,000 in cash and Class B Warrants to purchase
866,665 shares of our common stock to certain of the investors and an advisor to
one of the investors. We agreed to the payment of these due diligence fees,
which are meant to offset the costs certain of the investors incur in making the
decision to invest in an offering, as a term of the transaction. The recipients
of the due diligence fee are as set forth below:
Name of Recipient Cash Fee Warrant Fee
- ----------------- Received Received
Alpha Capital Aktiengesellschaft (1) $20,000 266,666
Ellis International Ltd. (1) 5,000 66,667
Osher Capital Inc. (1) 20,000 266,666
Utica Advisors, LLC (2) 20,000 266,666
Totals $65,000 866,665
(1) Investor in the offering.
(2) Advisor to Monarch Capital Fund, Ltd., an investor in the offering.
We intend to use the net proceeds from the transaction as follows: o
approximately $300,000 will be used for marketing of our products in
the PRC,
o approximately $400,000 has been earmarked for costs, including
market research, related to the possible expansion of the
market for our products into the U.S.,
o approximately $400,000 has been allocated for expansion of our
operations in the PRC, including the possible acquisitions of
additional sales networks or other companies similar to ours,
and
o the balance will be used for general working capital.
-30-
<page>
We have not identified any potential acquisition targets and may never
close such a transaction. In that event, those funds will be used for general
working capital.
In July 2006 the holders of an aggregate of 850,000 shares of our
Series B 6% Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock converted those shares into
an aggregate of 8,500,000 shares of our common stock and on November 1, 2006 the
holders of the remaining 650,000 shares of our Series B Convertible Preferred
Stock converted those shares, which included accrued but unpaid dividends, into
7,110,766 shares of our common stock. As of the date of this prospectus no
shares of Series B 6% Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock remain outstanding.
We agreed to file a registration statement covering the shares of
common stock underlying the Series B 6% Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock
and the exercise of the warrants. This prospectus is part of that registration
statement. In the event the registration statement was not filed by February 13,
2006 or did not become effective by May 27, 2006, we are required to pay
liquidated damages in the amount of $30,000 per month until the deficiency is
cured. We filed the registration statement on February 8, 2006, however, as the
registration statement was not declared effective prior to May 27, 2006 we are
subject to payment of these liquidated damages. As of September 30, 2006 the
amount of the liquidated damages is approximately $194,000. The transaction
documents also provide for the payment of liquidated damages to the investors in
certain events, including our failure to maintain an effective registration
statement covering the resale of the common shares issuable upon conversion or
exercise of the securities.
The securities are subject to anti-dilution protections afforded to
the investors. In addition, to the extent that the investors continue to own
shares of our common stock received upon conversion or exercise of the
securities, we have agreed to issue the investors additional shares to protect
against our future issuances of common stock or derivative securities at less
than the price of the common shares underlying the securities.
Critical Accounting Policies
Our financial statements and accompanying notes are prepared in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States.
Preparing financial statements requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and
expenses. These estimates and assumptions are affected by management's
applications of accounting policies. Critical accounting policies for our
company include revenue recognition and the useful lives of property, plant and
equipment.
Revenue Recognition - We follow the guidance of the Securities and
Exchange Commission's Staff Accounting Bulletin 104 for revenue recognition. In
general, we record revenue when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists,
product delivery has occurred, the sales price to the customer is fixed or
determinable, and collectibility is reasonably assured. We assess whether the
fee associated with our revenue transactions is fixed or determinable based on
the payment terms associated with the transaction. If a significant portion of
the fee is due after our normal payment terms, we access if the fee is not fixed
or determinable. In these cases, we may recognize revenue as the fees become
due. We assess collectibility based on the credit worthiness of the customer and
past transaction history. We perform initial credit evaluations of our customers
and do not require collateral from our customers. If we determine that
collection of a fee is not reasonably assured, we defers the fee and recognize
the revenue at the time that collection becomes reasonably assured. The
following policies reflect specific criteria for our various revenues streams:
-31-
<page>
* Revenues of Aerisys are recognized at the time the services are
rendered to customers. Services are rendered when our company's representatives
receive the customers' requests and complete the customers' orders. For contacts
over a period of time, Aerisys recognizes the revenue on a straight-line basis
over the period that the services are provided.
* Our revenues from the sale of products are recorded when the goods
are shipped, title passes, and collectibility is reasonably assured.
* Revenues from the sale of products to related parties are recorded
when the goods are shipped which correlates with the shipment by the related
parties to its customers, at which time title passes and collectibility is
reasonably assured. We receive sales orders on a just-in-time basis from related
parties. Generally, the related party does not hold our inventory. If the
related party has inventory on hand at the end of a financial reporting period,
the sale is reversed and the inventory is included on our balance sheet.
We record property and equipment at cost. Depreciation on property and
equipment is calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful
lives of the assets. Expenditures for major renewals and betterments that extend
the useful lives of property and equipment are capitalized. Expenditures for
maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. We review these
long-lived assets for impairment whenever circumstances and situations change
such that there is an indication that the carrying amounts may not be
recoverable. If the undiscounted future cash flows of the long-lived assets are
less than the carrying amount, their carrying amount is reduced to fair value
and an impairment loss is recognized. To date, we have not recognized any
impairment losses.
Accounting for Stock Based Compensation - We account for stock based
compensation utilizing Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123,
"Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation" ("SFAS 123"), which encourages, but
does not require, companies to record compensation cost for stock-based employee
compensation plans at fair value. We have chosen to account for stock-based
compensation using the intrinsic value method prescribed in Accounting
Principles Board Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees", and
related interpretations. Accordingly, compensation cost for stock options is
measured as the excess, if any, of the estimated fair market value of our stock
at the date of the grant over the amount an employee must pay to acquire the
stock. We have adopted the "disclosure only" alternative described in SFAS 123
and SFAS 148 (See Recent Accounting Pronouncements), which require pro forma
disclosures of net income and earnings per share as if the fair value method of
accounting had been applied. Because of this election, we continue to account
for our employee stock-based compensation plans under Accounting Principles
Board (APB) Opinion No. 25 and the related interpretations. We are required to
comply with SFAS No. 123 (revised 2004) starting on the first day of our fiscal
year 2006. We are currently evaluating the effect that the adoption of SFAS No.
123 (revised 2004) will have on our consolidated operating results and financial
condition. No stock-based compensation cost is currently reflected in net income
for employee and director option grants as all options granted under the 2005
Incentive Stock Plan and the Non-Employee Directors Stock Plan had an exercise
price equal to the market value of the underlying common stock on the date of
grant.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In December 2004, the FASB issued FASB Statement No. 123R, "Share-Based
Payment, an Amendment of FASB Statement No. 123" ("FAS No.123R"). FAS No. 123R
requires companies to recognize in the statement of operations the grant date
fair value of stock options and other equity-based compensation issued to
employees. FAS No. 123R is effective for the first fiscal year beginning after
December 15, 2005. We believe the adoption of this pronouncement could have a
material effect on our financial position in future periods in the event we
grant stock options and other equity-based compensation to our employees.
In April 2005, the Securities and Exchange Commission's Office of the
Chief Accountant and its Division of Corporation Finance has released Staff
Accounting Bulletin (SAB) No.107 to provide guidance regarding the application
of FASB Statement No.123 (revised 2004), Share-Based Payment. Statement No.
123(R) covers a wide range of share-based compensation arrangements including
share options, restricted share plans, performance-based awards, share
appreciation rights, and employee share purchase plans. SAB 107 provides
interpretative guidance related to the interaction between Statement No. 123R
and certain SEC rules and regulations, as well as the staff's views regarding
the valuation of share-based payment arrangements for public companies.
In May 2005, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 154, "Accounting Changes and
Error Corrections-a replacement of APB Opinion No. 20 and FASB Statement No. 3"
("SFAS 154"). This Statement replaces APB Opinion No. 20, Accounting Changes,
and FASB Statement No. 3, Reporting Accounting Changes in Interim Financial
Statements, and changes the requirements for the accounting for and reporting of
a change in accounting principle. This Statement applies to all voluntary
changes in accounting principle. It also applies to changes required by an
accounting pronouncement in the unusual instance that the pronouncement does not
include specific transition provisions. When a pronouncement includes specific
transition provisions, those provisions should be followed.
APB Opinion No. 20 previously required that most voluntary changes in
accounting principle be recognized by including in net income of the period of
the change the cumulative effect of changing to the new accounting principle.
This Statement requires retrospective application to prior periods' financial
statements of changes in accounting principle, unless it is impracticable to
determine either the period-specific effects or the cumulative effect of the
change. When it is impracticable to determine the period-specific effects of an
accounting change on one or more individual prior periods presented, this
Statement requires that the new accounting principle be applied to the balances
of assets and liabilities as of the beginning of the earliest period for which
retrospective application is practicable and that a corresponding adjustment be
made to the opening balance of retained earnings (or other appropriate
components of equity or net assets in the statement of financial position) for
that period rather than being reported in an income statement. When it is
impracticable to determine the cumulative effect of applying a change in
accounting principle to all prior periods, this Statement requires that the new
accounting principle be applied as if it were adopted prospectively from the
earliest date practicable. This Statement shall be effective for accounting
changes and corrections of errors made in fiscal years beginning after December
15, 2005. We do not believe that the adoption of SFAS 154 will have a
significant effect on its financial statements.

On June 29, 2005, the Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) of FASB
ratified Issue No. 05-2, "The Meaning of `Conventional Convertible Debt
Instrument' in EITF Issue No. 00-19, `Accounting for Derivative Financial
Instruments Indexed to, and Potentially Settled in, a Company's Own Stock.'"
EITF Issue 05-2 provides guidance on determining whether a convertible debt
instrument is "conventional" for the purpose of determining when an issuer is
required to bifurcate a conversion option that is embedded in convertible debt
in accordance with SFAS 133. Issue No. 05-2 is effective for new instruments
entered into and instruments modified in reporting periods beginning after June
29, 2005. The adoption of this pronouncement did not have a material effect on
our financial statements.
In September 2005, the EITF issued EITF Issue No. 05-4, "The Effect of
a Liquidated Damages Clause on a Freestanding Financial Instrument Subject to
EITF Issue No. 00-19, `Accounting for Derivative Financial Instruments Indexed
to, and Potentially Settled in, a Company's Own Stock.'" EITF 05-4 provides
guidance to issuers as to how to account for registration rights agreements that
require an issuer to use its "best efforts" to file a registration statement for
the resale of equity instruments and have it declared effective by the end of a
specified grace period and, if applicable, maintain the effectiveness of the
registration statement for a period of time or pay a liquidated damage penalty
to the investor. We adopted View C of this pronouncement. Accordingly, we
bifurcated registration rights of our Series B 6% Cumulative Convertible
Preferred Stock from their related free standing financial instruments and
recorded them at fair value as reflected in the financial statements included
elsewhere herein.
In September 2005, the FASB ratified EITF Issue No. 05-7, "Accounting
for Modifications to Conversion Options Embedded in Debt Instruments and Related
Issues," which addresses whether a modification to a conversion option that
changes its fair value affects the recognition of interest expense for the
associated debt instrument after the modification and whether a borrower should
recognize a beneficial conversion feature, not a debt extinguishment if a debt
modification increases the intrinsic value of the debt (for example, the
modification reduces the conversion price of the debt). This issue is effective
for future modifications of debt instruments beginning in the first interim or
annual reporting period beginning after December 15, 2005. We are currently in
the process of evaluating the effect that the adoption of this pronouncement may
have on our financial statements.
In September 2005, the FASB also ratified the EITF's Issue No. 05-8,
"Income Tax Consequences of Issuing Convertible Debt with a Beneficial
Conversion Feature," which discusses whether the issuance of convertible debt
with a beneficial conversion feature results in a basis difference arising from
the intrinsic value of the beneficial conversion feature on the commitment date
(which is recorded in the shareholder's equity for book purposes, but as a
liability for income tax purposes), and, if so, whether that basis difference is
a temporary difference under FASB Statement No. 109, "Accounting for Income
Taxes." This Issue should be applied by retrospective application pursuant to
Statement 154 to all instruments with a beneficial conversion feature accounted
for under Issue 00-27 included in financial statements for reporting periods
beginning after December 15, 2005. We are currently in the process of evaluating
the effect that the adoption of this pronouncement may have on our financial
statements.
Other accounting standards that have been issued or proposed by the
FASB or other standards-setting bodies that do not require adoption until a
future date are not expected to have a material impact on the consolidated
financial statements upon adoption.

Change of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
On May 12, 2005, we dismissed Berkovits, Lago & Company, LLP as our
independent registered public accounting firm. Berkovits, Lago & Company, LLP
had been the independent registered public accounting firm for and audited the
consolidated financial statements of our company as of December 31, 2004 and
2003. The reports of Berkovits, Lago & Company, LLP on our financial statements
for the past two fiscal years contained no adverse opinion or disclaimer of
opinion, and were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or
accounting principles, except such reports were modified as to an explanatory
paragraph relating to our ability to continue as a "going concern" as a result
of its lack of existing commitments from lenders to provide necessary financing,
lack of sufficient working capital, and recurring losses from operations. The
decision to change accountants was approved unanimously by the Board of
Directors.
In connection with the audit for the two most recent fiscal years and
in connection with Berkovits, Lago & Company, LLP's review of the subsequent
interim periods preceding dismissal on May 12, 2005, there were no disagreements
between our company and Berkovits, Lago & Company, LLP on any matter of
accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing
scope or procedure, which, if not resolved to the satisfaction of Berkovits,
Lago & Company, LLP, would have caused Berkovits, Lago & Company, LLP to make
reference thereto in their report on our financial statements for these fiscal
years. During the two most recent fiscal years and prior to the date of
dismissal we had no reportable events (as defined in Item 304(a)(1) of
Regulation S-B).
On May 12, 2005 we engaged Sherb & Co., LLP as our independent
registered public accounting firm. We had not consulted with Sherb & Co., LLP
regarding the application of accounting principles to any contemplated or
completed transactions nor the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on
our financial statements, and neither written nor oral advice was provided that
would be an important factor considered by us in reaching a decision as to an
accounting, auditing or financial reporting issues.
OUR BUSINESS
Overview
We operate under a holding company structure and currently have one
operating subsidiary, Linkwell Tech. Linkwell Tech owns 90% of Likang and we
regard Likang's business of hospital disinfectant products as our primary
business.
Through our subsidiary we are involved in the development, manufacture,
sale and distribution of disinfectant health care products primarily to the
medical industry in China. Likang was founded by the Second Military Medical
University of the Chinese Army in 1988 and we believe that these ties provide us
with certain marketing advantages. Recently we have made efforts to expand our
customer base and penetrate the civil disinfection, industrial disinfection,
livestock and agricultural disinfection markets of China. Currently we offer a
variety of disinfectant products for the following applications:
-35-
<page>
|X| Skin and mucous membrane disinfection
|X| Hand disinfectants (external)
|X| Environment and surface disinfectants
|X| Medical devices and equipment disinfectants
|X| Machine disinfectants
We have been granted 26 hygiene licenses by the Ministry of Public
Health of the central government of China. We have filed two additional product
applications, and are presently developing three additional products. We also
sell products which have been developed and manufactured by third parties. These
parties manufacture disinfectant products which generate approximately 5% of our
revenue. Products which we manufacture account for approximately 95% of our
total net revenues for each of the fiscal year ended December 31, 2005 and the
six months ended June 30, 2006.
We have a national marketing and sales presence throughout all 22
provinces as well as four autonomous regions and four municipalities of China.
We currently employ 19 full-time sales and marketing people based in Shanghai.
Shanghai Likang Pharmaceuticals Technology Company, an affiliate, also sells our
products using 72 independent sales representatives in other provinces of China.
Industry Background
Likang is a member of the disinfectant industry in China. According to
a survey conducted by China Federation of Industrial Economics (CFIC), the
disinfectant market in China is approximately $6.25 billion (USD) in 2004(1).
While the disinfectant industry in China is an emerging industry, and the
industry is populated with small regional players, we estimate that there are
over 1,000 manufacturers and distributors of disinfectant products in China and
certain of our major competitors distribute products similar to ours, including
those which also prevent the spread of airborne viruses such as avian flu and
SARS. Currently we market our products to the medical industry in China and we
have recently made efforts to diversify and expand our reach to the retail
market.
Recent Health Concerns in China
China has witnessed a variety of public health crises in recent history
and which demonstrated the need for increased health standards in China. In
response, the Chinese government has taken initiatives to improve public health
and living standards, including the establishment by The Ministry of Public
Health in China for the disinfectant industry in China. The heightened public
concerns as well as these new public standards have led to a surge in interest
for disinfectant products in China with consumers maintaining stockpiles of
disinfectant products. This activity represented a surge in sales for the
industry. We believe that the stockpiles will eventually deplete which may lead
to an additional surge in demand. There is no assurance as to the timing of this
surge; however increased public awareness and heightened national standards, a
growing population, and a higher standard of living, are just a few factors
which we believe support the growth of demand for disinfectant products.

SARS - Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome
In recent years the Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS) has
threatened the public community. SARS, which is a viral respiratory illness
caused by a corona virus, called SARS-associated corona virus (SARS-CoV), was
first reported in Asia in November 2002. Over the next few months, the illness
spread to more than two dozen countries in North America, South America, Europe,
and Asia before the SARS global outbreak of 2003 was contained. In April 2004,
the Chinese Ministry of Health reported several new cases of possible SARS in
Beijing and the Anhui Province, which is located in east-central China.
According to the Center for Disease Control of the central government
of China, the common manner in which SARS seems to spread is by close
person-to-person contact. The virus that causes SARS is thought to be
transmitted most readily by respiratory droplets ("droplet spread") when an
infected person coughs or sneezes. Droplet spread occurs as germs from the cough
or sneeze of an infected person are propelled a short distance (generally up to
three feet) through the air and deposited on the mucous membranes of the mouth,
nose, or eyes of nearby persons. The virus also can spread when a person touches
a surface or object contaminated with infectious droplets and then touches his
or her mouth, nose, or eye(s). Ultimately there is much the global community
does not know about SARS, and it is possible that the SARS virus might spread
more broadly through the air (airborne spread) or by other ways that are not yet
known.
Avian Influenza
In 2005, the threat of a global pandemic as a result of the avian flu
has captured the attention of the global community. The avian flu is a type of
the A strain virus that infects birds. Typically, it is not common for humans to
-37-
<page>
be infected with the virus via contact with birds, however a few bird-to-human
outbreaks have been reported and most have been in Asia. Humans were infected
when they came into contact with sick birds or contaminated surfaces. In most
cases, infected persons reported flu-like symptoms, but some had more serious
complications, including pneumonia and acute respiratory distress. The avian flu
has led to increased concerns for improved health conditions.
China Health Standards
In July 2002, the Chinese Ministry of Public Health issued the 27th
order of Ministry of Health of the People's Republic of China establishing
national standards for the disinfection industry. The first criterion of the new
order stipulated that disinfectant manufacturers in China must obtain a license
to manufacture hygiene disinfectants. Secondly, prior to release, all
disinfectant instruments must obtain the official hygiene permit document of
both the local provincial hygiene administrative department and the Ministry of
Public Health.
The process to obtain a manufacturing license, involves three stages:
o Manufacturers file application materials to local public health
administrative department; o Local administrative department perform an
inspection of the manufacturing facilities according to "qualified
disinfection product manufacturing enterprise requirements"; and
o Upon satisfaction of "qualified disinfection product manufacturing
enterprise requirements", the manufacturer will be issued a license.
The process to obtain the official hygiene permit for individual
disinfectant or instrument, the company must follow the steps listed as below:
1. File the application;
2. Explain disinfectant ingredient or instrument layout and
function;
3. Hygiene administrative department will examine the sample,
and perform independent tests to verify industry standards
and benefits; and
4. If all the standards are met, the permit will be issued.
The table below details the 26 licenses issued to Likang by the
Ministry of Public Health of the central government of China.

Product Lines
We offer a diverse range of product offerings. We manufacture 38
disinfectant products and our product offerings come in three primary forms:
o Liquids-gel
o Tablets-powder
o Aerosol
Our disinfectant products range from air disinfection machines to hot
press bags, disinfection swabs, and disinfection indicators. We believe that
this wide product line has served as an advantage for our company in our efforts
to create a national audience for our products and services.
Approximately 95% of our sales are derived from products we have
internally developed and produced and the remaining 5% of sales are produced by
outside companies. The tables below offer a summary of our current product
offerings:
Skin and Mucous Membrane Disinfectants
Skin and mucous membrane disinfectants target both exterior and
internal applications. Prior to operations, incisions, or injections; the
products can clean the skin surface. Mucous membrane disinfectants target
internal germs located in the mouth, eye, perineum and other internal sources.
This product group accounted for approximately 50% of our 2004 sales and
approximately 57% of our 2005 sales.

Retail products
Recently we have made efforts to expand our distribution reach to the
retail market. As a result our products have gained access to hotels, schools,
supermarkets, and drugstores. We have repackaged commercial disinfectant
products for sale to the consumer market. Since October 1999, we redeveloped
four separate products for distribution to the retail market. Likang redeveloped
the following products:
- - Jin Zhongda collutory (mouth wash) October 1999
- - antibacterial lubricant October 1999
- - Likang 84 disinfectant August 2005
- - Dian'erkang aerosol disinfectant October 2005
Customers
We sell our products on a wholesale and retail basis to the medical
community in China. We have approximately 5,000 active and recurring customers
including hospitals, medical suppliers and distribution companies throughout
China. We maintain over 20 distribution contracts with wholesale dealers and
agents. We generally offer payment terms of four to six months before payment
for the products is due. For fiscal years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004 two
affiliated entities which are our customers, Shanghai Likang Pharmaceutical
Technology Company, Limited and Shanghai Likang Meirui Pharmaceuticals High-Tech
Co. Ltd., represented approximately 36% and approximately 40% of our total net
revenues. For the six months ended June 30, 2006 approximately 58% of our total
net revenues were from sales to these affiliates. See "Certain Relationships and
Related Transactions" appearing later in this prospectus. We have contracts with
all our dealer and agent customers.

Manufacturing
We operate two factory facilities in Shanghai, one located in the
Shanghai Jiading district and one located in the Shanghai Jinshan district.
Products are manufactured primarily in liquid, tablet, and powder form.
Approximately 95% of Likang revenues are derived from products manufactured in
these two factories.
The Shanghai Jiading district factory is approximately 21,500 square
feet, all of which is used for production. This factory meets the good
manufacturing practice (GMP) standards established by the central government;
however, the equipment utilized in the factory is not GMP certified for the
production of medical and chemical products. As the equipment at this factory
could not be upgraded to GMP certification, rather than purchase new equipment
as described below we have begun utilizing the contract manufacturing services
of related party which has both a GMP certified factory and GMP certified
equipment to manufacture certain of our disinfectant products. The main products
produced at the Shanghai Jiading district factory are liquid and index
disinfectant devices. The manufacturing facility has the capacity to produce
approximately 9 million liters of liquid disinfectant annually. The
manufacturing cycle for the liquids, from formulation to finish product, is one
day.
The Shanghai Jinshan district factory is approximately 4,300 square
feet and is used in the manufacture of the tablet and powder forms of
disinfectants. The manufacturing capacity is 300 metric tons of tablet and 180
metric tons of powder disinfectant annually. The average manufacturing cycle for
the tablets and powder, from formulation to finished product, is one day.
Products which represent the remaining approximate 5% of our revenues
are manufactured by third parties as set forth below:

From time to time we have utilized the services of Shanghai Likang
Biological Hi-Tech Company, Ltd., an affiliated entity, as a contract
manufacturer to process certain of our disinfectant products. During the three
months ended June 30, 2006, following an upgrade of its facilities which now
have received a GMP (good manufacturing processes) certification for both the
factory and the equipment, we began utilizing the services of Shanghai Likang
Biological High-Tech Company, Ltd. to manufacture certain of our products,
including our An'erdian and Dian'erkang lines of disinfectants. We believe that
products which can be marketed as being manufactured at a GMP certified facility
utilizing GMP certified equipment can generally be sold at a higher prices than
similar products manufactured in a non- GMP certified facility. We have yet to
determine what effective, if any, the use of this contract manufacturing
arrangement will have on our gross margins for the products processed for us by
this affiliate. While our cost for the product will increase, if we are able to
sell the products as higher prices because of the GMP certification we believe
that we will be able to maintain our margins on these products.
We package our products in various packages to meet different needs
from the market.

capacity based upon our current product demand, and we have the ability to
produce at full capacity if demand continues to increase.
We have an in-house fulfillment and distribution operation, which is
used to manage the supply chain, beginning with the placement of the order,
continuing through order processing, and then fulfilling and shipping of the
product to the customer. We maintain inventory and fill customer orders from
both Jiading factory and Jinshan factory.
Raw Materials
We purchase raw materials from six primary suppliers, including a
related party, and we have signed purchase contracts with these suppliers in an
effort to ensure a steady supply of raw materials. We have maintained stable
business relations with these suppliers for over 10 years, and we believe that
our relationships with these primary suppliers will remain stable. In the event
the relationships falter, there are many suppliers with the capability to supply
our company. We purchase raw materials on payment terms of 30 days to three
months. Some of the suppliers import from foreign countries, as listed below,
and we purchase directly from these suppliers.

Customer Service and Support
We believe that a high level of customer service and support is
critical in retaining and expanding our customer base. Customer care
representatives participate in ongoing training programs under the supervision
of our training managers. These training sessions include a variety of topics
such as product knowledge and customer service tips. Our customer care
representatives respond to customers' e-mails and calls that are related to
order status, prices and shipping. If our customer care representatives are
unable to respond to a customer's inquiry at the time of the call, we strive to
provide an answer within 24 hours. We believe our customer care representatives
are a valuable source of feedback regarding customer satisfaction. Our customer
returns and credits average approximately 1% of total sales.
New Product Development
We are committed to research and development. Likang was created as a
research and development organization by the Second Military Medical University
of the Chinese Army in 1988. We develop our products internally and own all
rights associated with these products.
We have recently developed two new disinfectant products. Our An'erdian
Type 3 Skin and Mucous Membrane Disinfectant, a skin disinfectant, was recently
honored as a 2005 National Key New Product by the Chinese Ministry of Science &
Technology. This product has numerous uses in gynecology, skin disease treatment
as well as daily hygiene. We are currently in the patent application process for
this product. We believe that another key new product will be Likang #84
Disinfectant, which was recently approved by the Chinese Public Health
Department. This product is a liquid chemical disinfectant that contains the
sodium hypochlorite and can be used in households on almost all surfaces. This
new formula carries a shelf life of two years versus the competitors' similar
products which have a limited shelf life of 90 days.
In addition, we are conducting research on additional products,
including the Lvshaxing Air Disinfectant Machine Type 1, Lvshaxing Air
Disinfectant Machine Type 2 and Likang 5% (chloride content) Disinfectant
Liquid. We are unable to predict at this time if our research will result in the
introduction of new products.
We previously announced we had begun the initial development of a new
series of disinfectants employing Hypericin, a major compound found in St. Johns
Wort, a Chinese herb. The new series of disinfectants was designed to target the
H5N1 and H9N2 strains of avian flu. In recent laboratory tests, Hypericin had
proven effective in preventing the spread of strands of the avian flu in
poultry. In the course of our development efforts we determined products
designed with Hypericin as a major component caused several side effects in
humans including nausea, irritation, rash, fatigue, restlessness and
photosensitivity. These toxic side effects have proven to be an obstacle for the
use of Hypericin as a main component in various treatments and, as a result, in
January 2006 we abandoned efforts related to the development of Hypericin based
products.
-44-
<page>
For the fiscal years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004, we spent
approximately $36,000 and approximately $76,000, respectively, on research and
development.
Marketing and Sales
We were formed in 1988 as a research and development organization by
the Second Military Medical University of the Chinese Army. Our CEO, Mr. Xue
Lian Bian, was a member of the staff of the university. We believe that these
ties provide us with certain marketing advantages. The university is a well
recognized, prestigious institution in China and many of its graduates work at
hospitals, medical suppliers and distribution companies throughout China in
senior positions which place them in the decision making process when it comes
to purchasing products such as ours. In addition, the students and faculty at
the university provide a pool of talent from which we draw, both as potential
employees or summer interns who go on to work at other companies, many of whom
are customers or potential customers for our products. In marketing our
products, we seek to leverage these relationships.
We have a national marketing and sales presence throughout all 22
provinces, as well as four autonomous regions, and four municipalities of China.
We currently employ 19 full-time sales and marketing people based in Shanghai.
Shanghai Likang Pharmaceuticals Technology Company, an affiliate, also sells our
products using 72 independent sales representatives in other provinces of China.
Approximately 30% of our sales are achieved by our proprietary sales force while
the remaining approximately 70% are outsourced to independent dealers and
agents. We compensate our proprietary salesman with a base salary and
commission. The sales representatives are located in provinces other than
Shanghai. The external sales network currently covers hospitals in 20 provinces
including: Beijing, Guangdong, Tianjin, Fujian, Yunnan, Hainan, Jiangsu,
Zhejiang, Anhui, Shandong, Henan, Hebei, Liaoning, Heilongjiang, Shanxi, Gansu,
Ningxia, Guizhou, Hunan, Sichuan, Xinjiang, Neimenggu. The independent sales
representatives sell directly to the end-users.
We also have relationships with 23 independent distribution agents who
purchase products from us in larger quantities and then resell in smaller
quantities to smaller health care facilities. In January 2005 we signed a two
year agreement with Shanghai Likang Meirui Pharmaceutical High-Tech Co., Ltd. to
market our products to the retail/consumer market. Shanghai Likang Meirui
Pharmaceutical High-Tech Co., Ltd., a company of which Shanghai Shanhai Group,
Likang's minority shareholder, owns a 68% interest, has a sales network which
covers certain sectors of the retail/consumer market in China.
During fiscal 2006 we will seek to expand our distribution capability
in the PRC through the possible purchase of independent sales networks. While we
have allocated a portion of the proceeds from our recent private offering for
such as use, we have not identified any potential targets and we may inevitably
choose not to pursue this strategy.

Recent Development - Disinfectant Educational Center
On May 25, 2006, we entered into an agreement with China Pest
Infestation Control and Sanitation Association, an association governed by the
Chinese central government, to establish and operate a disinfectant educational
center in Beijing, China . We will be responsible for the establishment and
development of the disinfectant educational center, as well as its management
and funding. The China Pest Infestation Control and Sanitation Association will
be responsible for establishing a job training base in Beijing. We believe we
were selected to participate in this program based upon our reputation and
experience in the disinfectant industry.
While the specific details and timeline related to the establishment of
the disinfectant educational center are in the early planning stages, it is
anticipated that the disinfectant educational center will offer a job training
program to educate and train professionals to work as professionals in the
disinfectant field The disinfectant educational center will be a tuition based
education program for which graduates will receive a license from the China Pest
Infestation Control and Sanitation Association. After completion of the program,
it is envisioned that a personnel exchange service center of the Chinese central
government's Health Department will function much like a placement office and
assist the center's graduates in securing positions with companies seeking to
fill positions in the PRC. From time to time we may also recruit graduates from
the disinfectant educational center to join our company.
In June 2006, we entered into an oral arrangement with Beijing
JinMeiHua Sterilizing Technology Development Company, Limited ("JinMeiHua"),an
unrelated party, to act as our agent to operate the disinfectant educational
center and to be responsible for the job training program specifics. While
JinMeiHua does not have any specific expertise in this area, we believe that
JinMeiHua's reputation and government contacts will benefit the establishment
and operation of the enterprise. Generally, JinMeiHua will be responsible for
operating the disinfectant educational center and we will be responsible for
providing the funding necessary therefore.
It is expected that the China Pest Infestation Control and Sanitation
Association, JinMeiHua and Likang will share in profits of the disinfectant
educational center; however the precise revenue share has not been determined.
It is also expected that the China Pest Infestation Control and Sanitation
Association will receive at a maximum 50% of the profits from the disinfectant
educational center. JinMeiHua will also receive a to-be-determined percentage of
the profits for operating the disinfectant educational center. We have advanced
JinMeiHua $249,797 to begin the development of the disinfectant educational
center. We are presently developing the operational details of the arrangement
with JinMeiHua, and anticipate that we will enter into a definitive agreement
with JinMeiHua during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2006 regarding this venture.
Based upon our early discussions with JinMeiHua we anticipate that we will be
required to provide additional funds for the venture, but we are unable at this
time to quantify the amount.
Intellectual Property
We have received six patents and have four pending patent applications
with National Property Right Administration of the PRC. The patent approval
process can take up to 36 months. The following is a list of Likang's patents

We have four registered trademarks with the China State Administration
for industry and commerce trademark office for An'erdian, Jifro, Dian'erkang and
Lvshaxing.
We are not a party to any confidentiality or similar agreement with any
of our employees or any third parties regarding our intellectual property. It is
possible that a third party could, without authorization, utilize our propriety
technologies without our consent. We can give no assurance that our proprietary
technologies will not otherwise become known or independently developed by
competitors.
Competition
We operate in a highly fragmented, competitive national market for
healthcare disinfectant products. According to a survey conducted in 2004 by the
China Federation of Industrial Economics (CFIC), the disinfectant market in the
PRC was approximately $6.25 billion (U.S.) While the disinfectant industry in
China is an emerging industry, and the industry is populated with small regional
players, we estimate that there are over 1,000 manufacturers and distributors of
disinfectant products in China and certain of our major competitors distribute
products similar to ours, including those which also prevent the spread of
airborne viruses such as avian flu and SARS. We compete with foreign companies,
including 3M, who are distributing a full line of disinfectant products in
China, as well as smaller, domestic manufacturers. Most of these domestic
competitors, however, offer a limited line of products and there are few
domestic companies with a nationwide presence. We believe that our national
marketing and sales presence throughout all 22 provinces, as well as four
autonomous regions, and four municipalities of China gives us a competitive
advantage over many other disinfectant companies in China. In addition, prior to
the adoption of industry standards in July 2002 by the central government of
China, disinfectant products were generally marketed and sold based on pricing
factors. We believe the recent standards implemented by the government will
shift the customer demand from price to quality.
-47-
<page>
Furthermore we estimate the new government standards adopted in July
2002 have increased the barriers to entry and increased the bar for competitors
in the disinfectant industry. We believe that the new standards may lead to
fewer competitors as companies falter in their efforts to adhere to the new
standards. The implementation of these improved production standards and
licenses has effectively decreased the competitiveness of small to mid size
manufacturers. The new standards are especially difficult for companies with
limited product offerings and inferior technical content. As a result of this
heightened license and permit system, all disinfectant manufacturers must comply
with "qualified disinfection product manufacturing enterprise requirements"
established by the Ministry of Public Health. The requirements include standards
for both hardware and software. Hardware would include facilities and machinery.
Software would include the technology to monitor the facilities. Furthermore the
requirements will encompass the knowledge and capability of both the production
staff and quality control procedures.
We believe that the following are the principal competitive strengths
that differentiate our company from the majority of our competition:
o Product selection and availability. A number of our
competitors are smaller, regional companies with a limited
number of product offerings. We offer our customers a wide
variety of disinfectant products and ability to ship products
to our customers on a timely basis throughout the PRC.
o Research and development. Our efforts to respond to market
demand for new products have resulted in the issuance to us of
26 hygiene licenses by the Ministry of Public Health of the
central government of China. Based upon our knowledge of our
competitors, we do not believe the majority of our competitors
have received as many license since the enactment of the
licensing standards in July 2002.
o Manufacturing capacity. Our Shanghai Jiading district factory,
which is devoted to liquid and index disinfectant devices, has
the capacity to produce 9 million liters of disinfectant
annually. Our Shanghai Jinshan district factory, which is
devoted to tablet and powder form disinfectants, has the
capacity to manufacture 300 metric tons of tablet and 180
metric tons of powder annually. Both of our factories have
production cycles from formulation to finished product of one
day.
o Trained service personnel. We believe our sales personnel are
thoroughly educated in our product lines which enable them to
better meet the needs of our customers.
o Reliability and speed of delivery. We believe our products
have developed a reputation of good quality and effectiveness
and our manufacturing capabilities enable us to product and
ship products to our customers promptly thus allowing our
customers the ability to better manage their purchasing
dollars.
o Customer service . Our customer service representatives
participate in ongoing product training programs and we strive
to respond to all customer inquiries within 24 hours.
-48-
<page>
o Price. We have developed relationships with a number of raw
material suppliers which enables us to keep our costs low and
thereby offer prices to our customers which are very
competitive.
Our primary competitors in the sale of chemical disinfectants are 3M
and Ace Disinfection Factory Co., Ltd. The primary competitors for instrument
disinfectants are Chengdu Kangaking Instrument Co., Ltd. and Hangzhou Yangchi
Medicine Article Co., Ltd. and the primary competitors for chemical indicators
are 3M and Shandong Xinhua Medical Instrument Co., Ltd. Domestic competition
comes from regional companies which tend to offer products in small geographic
areas and do not distribute their product lines throughout China.
Our primary domestic competitors include:
Competitor Products
3M: Hand disinfectant, skin and mucous disinfectant
Ace: Skin and mucous disinfectant
Chengdu Kangaking: medical equipment and devices
Hangzhou Yangchi: sterilized Q-tip
Shandong Xinhua: chemical indicators
Our primary foreign competitor is 3M Company which has had a presence
in China for more than 20 years. 3M Company entered the hand disinfection market
at the end of 2004 and primarily offers products in the areas of index and
control devices and disinfectant machines. At present, 3M Company has five
products for use in operating rooms and its products are found in provincial
capital cities of China such as Shanghai, Beijing, Guangzhou, Hangzhou, Nanjin,
Chengdu and Xi'an. 3M Company's product line in China is very narrow, with few
overlapping products between 3M Company and our company.
Another foreign competitor is Johnson & Johnson, which established
operations in China in 1994. In China, Johnson & Johnson offers a variety of
skin, hand, and medical equipment disinfectants. Prior to the recent initiatives
by the government, disinfectant products were marketed based on pricing and
despite the brand awareness of Johnson & Johnson; its products did not have
widespread reception amongst the community. Furthermore, Johnson & Johnson does
not offer a wide variety of disinfectant products in China. Due to the
difficulties in attaining a critical mass Johnson & Johnson recently withdrew
from the surgical disinfectant market in China and has refocused its efforts on
the disinfection of medical devices.
Government Regulations
Our business and operations are located in the PRC. We are subject to
local food, drug, environmental laws related to certification of manufacturing
and distributing of disinfectants. We are also licensed by the Shanghai City
Government to manufacture and distribute disinfectants. We are in substantial
compliance with all provisions of those licenses and have no reason to believe
that they will not be renewed as required by the applicable rules of Shanghai.
In addition, our operations must conform to general governmental regulations and
rules for private companies conducting business in China.

Pursuant to the July 2002 Ministry of Public Health 27th Order of
Ministry of Health of the People's Republic of China, all disinfectant
manufacturers in China must obtain a license to manufacture hygiene
disinfectants. Prior to release, all disinfectant instruments must obtain the
official hygiene permit document of Ministry of Public Health and the approval
of the provincial hygiene administrative department. The implementation of these
improved production standards and licenses has effectively decreased the
competitiveness of small to mid size manufacturers with single product and
inferior technical content. Presently we meet all standards initiated by this
ordinance and we have been granted 26 hygiene licenses by the Ministry of Public
Health. We have filed applications for two additional products.
We are also subject to various other rules and regulations, including
the People's Republic of China Infectious Disease Prevention and Cure Law,
Disinfection Management Regulation, Disinfection Technique Regulation,
Disinfection Product Manufacturer Sanitation Regulation, and Endoscope Rinse and
Disinfection Technique Manipulation Regulation. We believe we are in material
compliance with all of the applicable regulations.
PRC Legal System
Since 1979, many laws and regulations addressing economic matters in
general have been promulgated in the PRC. Despite development of its legal
system, the PRC does not have a comprehensive system of laws. In addition,
enforcement of existing laws may be uncertain and sporadic, and implementation
and interpretation thereof inconsistent. The PRC judiciary is relatively
inexperienced in enforcing the laws that exist, leading to a higher than usual
degree of uncertainty as to the outcome of any litigation. Even where adequate
law exists in the PRC, it may be difficult to obtain swift and equitable
enforcement of such law, or to obtain enforcement of a judgment by a court of
another jurisdiction. The PRC's legal system is based on written statutes and,
therefore, decided legal cases are without binding legal effect, although they
are often followed by judges as guidance. The interpretation of PRC laws may be
subject to policy changes reflecting domestic political changes. As the PRC
legal system develops, the promulgation of new laws, changes to existing laws
and the preemption of local regulations by national laws may adversely affect
foreign investors. The trend of legislation over the past 20 years has, however,
significantly enhanced the protection afforded foreign investors in enterprises
in the PRC. However, there can be no assurance that changes in such legislation
or interpretation thereof will not have an adverse effect upon our business
operations or prospects.
Economic Reform Issues
Since 1979, the Chinese government has reformed its economic systems.
Many reforms are unprecedented or experimental; therefore they are expected to
be refined and improved. Other political, economic and social factors, such as
political changes, changes in the rates of economic growth, unemployment or
inflation, or in the disparities in per capita wealth between regions within
China, could lead to further readjustment of the reform measures. We cannot
predict if this refining and readjustment process may negatively affect our
operations in future periods.
-50-
<page>
Over the last few years, China's economy has registered a high growth
rate. Recently, there have been indications that rates of inflation have
increased. In response, the Chinese government recently has taken measures to
curb this excessively expansive economy. These measures have included
devaluations of the Chinese currency, the Renminbi ("RMB"), restrictions on the
availability of domestic credit, reducing the purchasing capability of certain
of its customers, and limiting re-centralization of the approval process for
purchases of some foreign products. These austerity measures alone may not
succeed in slowing down the economy's excessive expansion or control inflation,
and may result in severe dislocations in the Chinese economy. The Chinese
government may adopt additional measures to further combat inflation, including
the establishment of freezes or restraints on certain projects or markets.
To date reforms to China's economic system have not adversely impacted
our operations and are not expected to adversely impact operations in the
foreseeable future; however, there can be no assurance that the reforms to
China's economic system will continue or that we will not be adversely affected
by changes in China's political, economic, and social conditions and by changes
in policies of the Chinese government, such as changes in laws and regulations,
measures which may be introduced to control inflation, changes in the rate or
method of taxation, imposition of additional restrictions on currency conversion
and remittance abroad, and reduction in tariff protection and other import
restrictions.
China's Accession into the WTO
On November 11, 2001, China signed an agreement to become a member of
the World Trade Organization ("WTO"), the international body that sets most
trade rules, further integrating China into the global economy and significantly
reducing the barriers to international commerce. China's membership in the WTO
was effective on December 11, 2001. China has agreed, upon its accession to the
WTO, to reduce tariffs and non-tariff barriers, remove investment restrictions,
provide trading and distribution rights for foreign firms, and open various
service sectors to foreign competition. China's accession to the WTO may
favorably affect our business in that reduced market barriers and a more
transparent investment environment will facilitate increased investment
opportunities in China, while tariff rate reductions and other enhancements will
enable us to develop better investment strategies for our clients. In addition,
the WTO's dispute settlement mechanism provides a credible and effective tool to
enforce members' commercial rights.

History of our Company
We were incorporated in the state of Colorado on December 11, 1996.
From our inception through December 28, 1999, we were involved in the business
of acquiring, developing and operating oil and gas properties. On December 28,
1999, we sold 60% of our issued and outstanding common stock to HBOA.Com, Inc.,
a District of Columbia corporation ("HBOA-DC"). Pursuant to this stock sale,
there was a change in our business and management team and we began to focus on
HBOA's business, which was related to the sale of products and services to the
owners of home based businesses through its Internet web site.
On May 31, 2000, HBOA-DC was merged with and into our wholly owned
subsidiary, HBOA.Com, Inc., a Florida corporation ("HBOA-FL"). In June 2000, we
began to develop our application service provider business, in addition to
HBOA's web site. We focused on development of an Internet portal through which
home based business owners, as well as commercial private label businesses,
obtain the products, services, and information necessary to start, expand and
profitably run their businesses. On November 10, 2000, our shareholders approved
our proposal to change our name from Mizar Energy Company to HBOA Holdings, Inc.
and to change our state of incorporation from Colorado to Florida and recorded a
loss of approximately $258,000. On December 28, 2000, we formed a new
subsidiary, Aerisys, Incorporated, a Florida corporation, to handle commercial
private business. Effective as of July 18, 2003, we changed our name to Kirshner
Entertainment & Technologies, Inc.
On May 2, 2005, we closed a share exchange with all of the shareholders
of Linkwell Tech in which we acquired 100% of the issued and outstanding shares
of Linkwell Tech's common stock in exchange for 36,273,470 shares of our common
stock, which at closing represented approximately 87.5% of the issued and
outstanding shares of our common stock. As a result of the transaction, Linkwell
Tech became our wholly owned subsidiary. Linkwell Tech was founded in June 2004.
On June 30, 2004, Linkwell Tech acquired 90% of Likang through a stock exchange
with Shanghai Likang Pharmaceuticals Technology Company, Limited, the then 90%
shareholder of Likang. Shanghai Shanhai Group, an unaffiliated third party, owns
the remaining 10% of Likang. Shanghai Shanhai Group is owned by Shanghai Shanhai
Group Employee Share-holding Committee (16.25%) and Shanghai Baoshan District
Dachang Town South Village Economic Cooperation Club (83.75%). Likang's officers
and directors, Messrs. Xue Lian Bian and Wei Guan, own Shanghai Likang
Pharmaceuticals Technology Company, Limited, owning 90% and 10%, respectively,
of that company. The transaction in which Linkwell Tech acquired the 90%
interest in Likang resulted in the formation of a U.S. holding company by
Messrs. Bian and Guan as it did not result in a change in the underlying
ownership interests of Likang.
Our then officers and directors resigned at the closing of the share
exchange and Messrs. Wei Guan and Xue Lian Bian, who were the officers and
directors of Linkwell Tech, were appointed our officers and directors. In
connection with the share exchange and to satisfy all outstanding obligations
and indebtedness owed by our company to our former CEO and certain third
parties, Linkwell Tech provided us $175,000 which we provided to our former CEO
to be used by him to satisfy these obligations. We also issued our former CEO
1,400,000 shares of our common stock.
In July 2005, we changed our name to Linkwell Corporation. As described
earlier in this prospectus under "Management's Discussion and Analysis or Plan
of Operation - Sale of Aerisys Incorporated" in February 2006 we sold our
interest in that subsidiary to our former CEO in exchange for the assumption of
all liabilities related to it.
In February 2006, we sold 100% of the stock of Aerisys to Mr. Gary
Verdier, our former CEO, in exchange for the assumption of all liabilities and
obligation of Aerisys. Prior to the share exchange agreement with Linkwell Tech
in May 2005, Aerisys had represented our sole operations. Aerisys marketed and
sold the Aerisys Intelligent Community (TM), a web-based software program and
private, browser-based intranet product that allows schools to collaborate with
parents and faculty each day on classroom homework, assignments, critical dates,
team priorities and school news in a private forum, primarily to K through 12
private schools. We had not been able to improve sales or business opportunities
for Aerisys since May 2005.

Legal Proceedings
We are not a party to any material litigation presently pending nor, to
the best of our knowledge, have any such proceedings been threatened, except as
follows.
In January 2004, the SEC commenced an informal inquiry of our company.
At this time we have not received any further information on this matter and are
therefore uncertain of the status of the SEC's informal investigation.

Shangahi, 201506. We own all of the manufacturing equipment in both of our
factories. We lease our principal executive office building and warehouse space,
which consists of approximately 22,800 square feet, from Shanghai Shanhai Group,
an unaffiliated third party, under leases expiring in December 2010 for an
annual rental of approximately $32,000, increasing during the lease years
beginning in 2008 in amounts ranging from 8% to 10% annually.
Until August 2005 we leased approximately 21,500 square feet of
manufacturing space from Shanghai Likang Pharmaceutical Technology Company,
Limited, an affiliate, under a lease originally expiring December 2006 for an
annual rent of approximately $11,500. In August 2005 we purchased this building,
which includes an assignment of the land use permit, for $333,675. See "Certain
Relationships and Related Transactions" appearing later in this prospectus.
We lease approximately 4,300 square feet of manufacturing space from
Shanghai Jinshan Zhuhang Plastics Lamps Factory, an unaffiliated third party,
under a lease expiring in December 2006 for an annual rent of approximately
$3,125. We also lease an additional approximate 1,480 square feet of warehouse
space from Shanghai Henglian Industrial Co. Limited, an unaffiliated third
party, under two leases which expire between September and October 2007 for an
annual rental of approximately $37,410.

Committees of the Board of Directors
Our Board of Directors has not established any committees, including an
Audit Committee or a Nominating Committee. The functions of those committees are
being undertaken by the entire board as a whole. As we expand our board in the
future to include independent directors we will establish an Audit Committee.
Director Independence, Audit Committee Of The Board Of Directors And Audit
Committee Financial Expert
None of the members of our Board of Directors are "independent" within
the meaning of definitions established by the Securities and Exchange
Commission. Our Board of Directors are presently comprised of individuals who
were integral in Likang's operations. As a result of our limited operating
history and minimal resources, small companies such as ours generally have
difficulty in attracting independent directors. In addition, we will require
additional resources to obtain directors and officers insurance coverage which
is generally necessary to attract and retain independent directors. As we grow,
in the future our Board of Directors intends to seek additional members who are
independent, have a variety of experiences and backgrounds, who will represent
the balanced, best interests of all of our shareholders and at least one of
which who is an "audit committee financial expert" described below.
None of our directors is an "audit committee financial expert" within
the meaning of Item 401(e) of Regulation S-B. In general, an "audit committee
financial expert" is an individual member of the audit committee or Board of
Directors who:
* understands generally accepted accounting principles and financial
statements,
* is able to assess the general application of such principles in
connection with accounting for
estimates, accruals and reserves,
* has experience preparing, auditing, analyzing or evaluating
financial statements comparable to
the breadth and complexity to our financial statements,
* understands internal controls over financial reporting, and
* understands audit committee functions.
Code of Business Conduct and Ethics
In December 2005, we adopted a Code of Business Conduct and Ethics
applicable to our Chief Executive Officer, principal financial and accounting
officers and persons performing similar functions. A Code of Business Conduct
and Ethics is a written standard designed to deter wrongdoing and to promote:
-55-
<page>
o honest and ethical conduct,
o full, fair, accurate, timely and understandable disclosure in
regulatory filings and public statements,
o compliance with applicable laws, rules and regulations,
o the prompt reporting violation of the code, and
o accountability for adherence to the Code.
A copy of our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics is filed as an
exhibit to the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part, and
we will provide a copy, without charge, to any person desiring a copy of the
Code of Business Conduct and Ethics, by written request to us at our principal
offices.

Stock Option Plans
Year 2000 Equity Compensation Plan
On October 10, 2000, our Board of Directors adopted our Year 2000
Equity Compensation Plan under which a total of 540,000 shares of common stock
are made available for the granting of awards, a portion or all of which may
qualify as incentive stock options, non-incentive stock options and restricted
stock grants. The purpose of the plan, which was approved by our shareholders on
November 10, 2000, is to encourage stock ownership by our officers, directors,
key employees and consultants, and to give such persons a greater personal
interest in the success of our business and an added incentive to continue to
advance and contribute to us. If any option or restricted stock grant expires or
terminates before it has been exercised in full, the shares of common stock
allocable to the unexercised portion of such option or restricted stock grant
may again be subject to an option or restricted stock grant under the 2000
Equity Compensation Plan. The number of shares available and subject to options,
option prices and, to the extent applicable, the number of shares subject to any
restricted stock grant will be adjusted upward or downward, as the case may be,
in the event of any subdivision or consolidation of shares or other capital
readjustment, stock dividend, merger, consolidation or similar transaction
affecting the shares. At September 30, 2006 we did not had any options to
purchase shares of our common stock outstanding under the plan.
The 2000 Equity Compensation Plan is administered by our Board of
Directors who have the sole authority to determine which eligible employees of
our company receive options and restricted stock grants under the plan, the
times when options and restricted stock grants are granted, the number of shares
covered by the option and restricted stock grant, the provisions of any
agreement and when options may be exercised or when restricted stock grants
become vested. In addition, the Board has the power and authority to construe
and interpret the Plan.
-57-
<page>
Stock options may be granted by the Board at prices determined in the
discretion of the Board, provided that the option price must be at least equal
to the fair market value of the common stock on the date of the grant. The
option price is payable in cash, common stock or such other form of payment as
may be determined by the Board. The exercise price of an incentive stock option
must be at least equal to the fair market value of our common stock on the date
of grant or 110% of such value in the case of options granted to an individual
who is a 10% or greater shareholder of our company.
An optionee generally may exercise an option only while an employee of
our company. If an optionee becomes disabled or dies while in the employ of our
company, the option may be exercised within one year of the optionee's death or
termination due to disability. The expiration date of an option will be
determined by the Board at the time of the grant, but in no event will an
incentive stock option be exercisable after the expiration of 10 years from the
date of grant or five years in the case of incentive options granted to a 10% or
greater shareholder. The Board may grant to an eligible individual shares of our
common stock subject to specified restrictions on transferability and vesting as
provided in a written grant agreement or resolutions in which the restricted
stock grant is adopted and approved by the Board. Restricted stock grants may be
made in lieu or cash compensation or as additional compensation. The Board may
also make restricted stock grants contingent on pre-established performance
goals determined by the Board. Except for certain transfers that may be
permitted by the Board, no option or restricted stock grant may be transferred
by an eligible individual other than by will or the laws of descent or
distribution.
-58-
<page>
The 2000 Equity Compensation Plan terminates on October 10, 2010. The
Board of Directors may at any time amend, suspend or discontinue the plan,
except that no amendment may be made without the approval of the shareholders
which would increase the number of shares subject to the plan, materially change
the designation of the class of employees eligible to receive options, remove
the administration of the plan from the Board or a committee of the Board or
materially increase the benefits accruing to participants under the plan.
Non-Qualified Stock Option Plan
On December 21, 2000 our Board of Directors adopted our Non-Qualified
Stock Option Plan under which a total of 200,000 shares of common stock are made
available for granting of non-qualified stock options to officers, directors,
employees and key advisors or consultants. The purpose of the plan is to
encourage the participants to contribute materially to our growth. If any option
expires or terminates before it has been exercised in full, the shares of common
stock allocable to the unexercised portion of such option may again be subject
to an option under the Non Qualified Stock Option Plan. The number of shares
available and subject to options and option prices will be adjusted upward or
downward, as the case may be, in the event of any subdivision or consolidation
of shares or other capital readjustment, stock dividend, merger, consolidation
or similar transaction affecting the shares. At September 30, 2006 we did not
had any options to purchase shares of our common stock outstanding under the
plan.
The Non-Qualified Stock Option Plan is administered by our Board of
Directors who have the sole authority to determine which who is eligible to
receive grants of non-qualified options under the plan, the times when options
are granted, the number of shares covered by the option, the provisions of any
agreement and when options may be exercised. In addition, the Board has the
power and authority to construe and interpret the Plan.
Stock options may be granted by the Board at prices determined in the
discretion of the Board and the exercise price of the option may be greater
than, or less than, the fair market value of our common stock. The option price
is payable in cash, common stock or such other form of payment as may be
determined by the Board. An optionee generally may exercise an option only while
the grantee is employed by us or otherwise providing our company services. If an
optionee becomes disabled or dies while in the employ of our company or while
otherwise providing services to us, the option may be exercised within 90 days
after optionee's death or termination due to disability. The expiration date of
an option will be determined by the Board at the time of the grant, but in no
event will a stock option be exercisable after the expiration of 10 years from
the date of grant. Except for certain transfers that may be permitted by the
Board, no option may be transferred by an eligible individual other than by will
or the laws of descent or distribution.
The 2000 Equity Compensation Plan terminates on December 21, 2010. The
Board of Directors may at any time amend, suspend or discontinue the plan,
except that no amendment may be made without the approval of the shareholders
which would increase the number of shares subject to the plan, materially change
the designation of the class of employees eligible to receive options, remove
the administration of the plan from the Board or a committee of the Board or
materially increase the benefits accruing to participants under the plan.

On June 28, 2005, our Board of Directors adopted our 2005 Equity
Compensation Plan under which 5,000,000 shares of our common stock have been
reserved for issuance upon the exercise of options or stock grants under the
plan. Our officers, directors, key employees and consultants are eligible to
receive stock grants and non-qualified options under the Plan. Only our
employees are eligible to receive incentive options. The purpose of the 2005
Equity Compensation Plan is to encourage stock ownership by our officers,
directors, key employees and consultants, and to give such persons a greater
personal interest in the success of our business and an added incentive to
continue to advance and contribute to us. Shares used for stock grants and plan
options may be authorized and unissued shares or shares reacquired by us,
including shares purchased in the open market. Shares covered by plan options
which terminate unexercised will again become available for grant as additional
options, without decreasing the maximum number of shares issuable under the
plan, although such shares may also be used by us for other purposes. As of
September 30, 2006 we had no outstanding options or stock grants under the plan
and there were 3,000,000 shares available for issuance under the 2005 Equity
Compensation Plan.
Our Board of Directors, or a committee of the Board, administers the
2005 Equity Compensation Plan including, without limitation, the selection of
the persons who will be awarded stock grants and granted options, the type of
options to be granted, the number of shares subject to each option and the
exercise price. Plan options may either be options qualifying as incentive stock
options under Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or
non-qualified options. In addition, the plan allows for the inclusion of a
reload option provision, which permits an eligible person to pay the exercise
price of the option with shares of common stock owned by the eligible person and
receive a new option to purchase shares of common stock equal in number to the
tendered shares. Any incentive option granted under the Plan must provide for an
exercise price of not less than 100% of the fair market value of the underlying
shares on the date of grant, but the exercise price of any incentive option
granted to an eligible employee owning more than 10% of our outstanding common
stock must not be less than 110% of fair market value on the date of the grant.
The exercise price of non-qualified options shall be determined by the Board of
Directors, but shall not be less than the par value of our common stock on the
date the option is granted.
-59-
<page>
The term of each plan option and the manner in which it may be
exercised is determined by the Board of Directors or the committee, provided
that no option may be exercisable more than 10 years after the date of its grant
and, in the case of an incentive option granted to an eligible employee owning
more than 10% of the common stock, no more than five years after the date of the
grant. The plan provides that, with respect to incentive stock options, the
aggregate fair market value (determined as of the time the option is granted) of
the shares of common stock, with respect to which incentive stock options are
first exercisable by any option holder during any calendar year shall not exceed
$1,000,000. Unless the plan is approved by our shareholders within one year of
the effective date, no incentive stock options may be granted and all incentive
stock options that may have been previously granted shall automatically be
converted into non-qualified stock options. As of the date of this prospectus we
have not submitted the 2005 Equity Compensation Plan to our shareholders for
approval.
The plan provides that, if our outstanding shares are increased,
decreased, exchanged or otherwise adjusted due to a share dividend, forward or
reverse share split, recapitalization, reorganization, merger, consolidation,
combination or exchange of shares, an appropriate and proportionate adjustment
shall be made in the number or kind of shares subject to the plan or subject to
unexercised options and in the purchase price per share under such options. Any
adjustment, however, does not change the total purchase price payable for the
shares subject to outstanding options. In the event of our proposed dissolution
or liquidation, a proposed sale of all or substantially all of our assets, a
merger or tender offer for our shares of common stock, the Board of Directors
may declare that each option granted under the plan shall terminate as of a date
to be fixed by the Board of Directors; provided that not less than 30 days
written notice of the date so fixed shall be given to each participant holding
an option, and each such participant shall have the right, during the period of
30 days preceding such termination, to exercise the participant's option, in
whole or in part, including as to options not otherwise exercisable.
Plan options are exercisable by delivery of written notice to us
stating the number of shares with respect to which the option is being
exercised, together with full payment of the purchase price therefor. Payment is
to be in the form of cash, checks, certified or bank cashier's checks,
promissory notes secured by the shares issued through exercise of the related
options, shares of common stock or in such other form or combination of forms
which may be acceptable to the Board of Directors, provided that any loan or
guarantee by us of the purchase price may only be made upon resolution of the
Board that such loan or guarantee is reasonably expected to benefit us.
All plan options are nonassignable and nontransferable, except by will
or by the laws of descent and distribution, and during the lifetime of the
optionee, may be exercised only by such optionee. If an optionee shall die while
our employee or within three months after termination of employment by us
because of disability, or retirement or otherwise, such options may be
exercised, to the extent that the optionee shall have been entitled to do so on
the date of death or termination of employment, by the person or persons to whom
the optionee's right under the option pass by will or applicable law, or if no
such person has such right, by his executors or administrators.
In the event of termination of employment because of death while an
employee or because of disability, the optionee's options may be exercised not
later than the expiration date specified in the option or one year after the
optionee's death, whichever date is earlier, or in the event of termination of
employment because of retirement or otherwise, not later than the expiration
date specified in the option or one year after the optionee's death, whichever
date is earlier. If an optionee's employment by us terminates because of
disability and such optionee has not died within the following three months, the
options may be exercised, to the extent that the optionee shall have been
entitled to do so at the date of the termination of employment, at any time, or
from time to time, but not later than the expiration date specified in the
option or one year after termination of employment, whichever date is earlier.
-60-
<page>
If an optionee's employment terminates for any reason other than death
or disability, optionee may exercise the options to the same extent that the
options were exercisable on the date of termination, for up to three months
following such termination, or on or before the expiration date of the options,
whichever occurs first. In the event that the optionee was not entitled to
exercise the options at the date of termination or if the optionee does not
exercise such options (which were then exercisable) within the time specified
herein, the options will terminate. If an optionee's employment terminates for
any reason other than death, disability or retirement, all right to exercise the
option terminate not later than 90 days following the date of such termination
of employment.
The Board of Directors may amend, suspend or terminate the plan at any
time. Unless the plan shall have been earlier suspended or terminated by the
Board of Directors, the 2005 Equity Compensation Plan terminates on June 28,
2015.
Limitation on liability and indemnification matters
As authorized by the Florida Business Corporation Law, our articles of
incorporation provide that none of our directors shall be personally liable to
us or our shareholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a
director, except liability for:
o any breach of the director's duty of loyalty to our company or its
shareholders;
o acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional
misconduct or a knowing violation of law;
o unlawful payments of dividends or unlawful stock redemptions or
repurchases; and
o any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal
benefit.
This provision limits our rights and the rights of our shareholders to
recover monetary damages against a director for breach of the fiduciary duty of
care except in the situations described above. This provision does not limit our
rights or the rights of any shareholder to seek injunctive relief or rescission
if a director breaches his duty of care. These provisions will not alter the
liability of directors under federal securities laws. Our by-laws require us to
indemnify directors and officers against, to the fullest extent permitted by
law, liabilities which they may incur under the circumstances described above.
Our articles of incorporation further provide for the indemnification
of any and all persons who serve as our director, officer, employee or agent to
the fullest extent permitted under Florida law.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities
Act of 1933 may be permitted to our directors, officers and controlling persons
according to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, we have been advised that
in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy as
expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and is, therefore, unenforceable.

DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES
Our authorized capital stock consists of 150,000,000 shares of common
stock, $.0005 par value per share, and 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock, no
par value. As of November 1, 2006 there are 65,168,355 shares of common stock
and no shares of preferred stock issued and outstanding.
Common stock
Holders of common stock are entitled to one vote for each share on all
matters submitted to a shareholder vote. Holders of common stock do not have
cumulative voting rights. Holders of common stock are entitled to share in all
dividends that the Board of Directors, in its discretion, declares from legally
available funds. In the event of our liquidation, dissolution or winding up,
subject to the preferences of any shares of our preferred stock which may then
be outstanding, each outstanding share entitles its holder to participate in all
assets that remain after payment of liabilities and after providing for each
class of stock, if any, having preference over the common stock.
Holders of common stock have no conversion, preemptive or other
subscription rights, and there are no redemption provisions for the common
stock. The rights of the holders of common stock are subject to any rights that
may be fixed for holders of preferred stock, when and if any preferred stock is
authorized and issued. All outstanding shares of common stock are duly
authorized, validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable.
Preferred stock
Our Board of Directors, without further shareholder approval, may issue
preferred stock in one or more series from time to time and fix or alter the
designations, relative rights, priorities, preferences, qualifications,
limitations and restrictions of the shares of each series. The rights,
preferences, limitations and restrictions of different series of preferred stock
may differ with respect to dividend rates, amounts payable on liquidation,
voting rights, conversion rights, redemption provisions, sinking fund provisions
and other matters. Our Board of Directors may authorize the issuance of
preferred stock, which ranks senior to our common stock for the payment of
dividends and the distribution of assets on liquidation. In addition, our Board
of Directors can fix limitations and restrictions, if any, upon the payment of
dividends on our common stock to be effective while any shares of preferred
stock are outstanding.
-66-
<page>
The rights granted to the holders of any series of preferred stock
could adversely affect the voting power of the holders of common stock and
issuance of preferred stock may delay, defer or prevent a change in our control.
Common Stock Purchase Warrants
At November 1, 2006 we had outstanding a common stock purchase warrants
to purchase an aggregate of 36,887,115 shares of our common stock as follows:
Warrants issued in the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock transaction
In connection with the sale of shares of our Series A convertible
preferred stock in June 2005, we issued the purchasers five-year common stock
purchase warrants to purchase an aggregate of 3,753,450 shares of our common
stock with an exercise price of $0.10 per share. Other than the exercise price,
all other terms of the warrant issued to are identical to the common stock
purchase warrants issued to the purchasers in the offering.
The warrants contain a cashless exercise provision which permits the
holder, rather than paying the exercise price in cash, to surrender a number of
warrants equal to the exercise price of the warrants being exercised. The
exercise price of the warrants and the number of shares issuable upon the
exercise of the warrants is subject to adjustment in the event of stock splits,
stock dividends and reorganizations, or in the event we undertake an offering of
securities with an exercise price below the exercise price of these warrants in
which event the exercise price would be adjusted downward.
Warrants issued in the Series B 6% Cumulative Convertible Preferred
Stock transaction
In December 2005 we issued five year Class A Common Stock Purchase
Warrants to purchase 15,866,665 shares of our common stock at an exercise price
of $0.20 per share and five year Class B Common Stock Purchase Warrants to
purchase 15,000,000 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $0.30 per
share in connection with the sale of our Series B 6% Cumulative Convertible
Preferred Stock. Other than the exercise price the terms of the warrants are
identical. These warrants are not exercisable to the extent that (a) the number
of shares of our common stock beneficially owned by the holder and (b) the
number of shares of our common stock issuable upon the exercise of the warrants
would result in the beneficial ownership by holder of more than 4.99% of our
then outstanding common stock. This ownership limitation can be waived by the
holder upon 61 days notice to us.
Until such time as the registration statement of which this prospectus
is a part is declared effective by the SEC, the exercise price of the warrants
is payable only in cash. Until such time, or if we should fail to maintain the
effectiveness of the registration statement, the warrant holders can exercise
the warrants on a cashless basis which permits the holder, rather than paying
the exercise price in cash, to surrender a number of warrants equal to the
exercise price of the warrants being exercised. The exercise price of the
warrants and the number of shares issuable upon the exercise of the warrants is
subject to adjustment in the event of stock splits, stock dividends and
reorganizations. In addition, so long as the warrants are outstanding, if we
should issue shares of common stock or securities convertible or exchange for
shares of our common stock at an effective price less than the then conversion
price of the warrants the exercise price of the warrants will also be
automatically be adjusted to such other lower price.

connection with services rendered to us.

warrants would result in the beneficial ownership by holder of more than 4.99%
of our then outstanding common stock. This ownership limitation can be waived by
the holder upon 61 days notice to us.
(25) The number of shares owned and offered by the selling security holder
includes shares of our common stock which are presently outstanding.
(26) The selling security holder is an employee of our company.
(27) Mr. Guan is an executive officer and director of our company. The number of
shares owned and offered by him include shares of our common stock which are
presently outstanding.
(28) Ms. Zhang is a principal of Beijing JinMeiHua Sterilizing Technology
Development Company, Limited. As described earlier in this prospectus under "Our
Business - Recent Development - Disinfectant Educational Center" we have entered
into an oral arrangement with that company to operate a job training center.

None of the selling security holders are broker-dealers or affiliates
of broker-dealers. None of the selling security holders has, or within the past
three years has had, any position, office or other material relationship with us
or any of our predecessors or affiliates, other than as described previously in
this section. We are required to pay all fees and expenses incident to the
registration of the shares. We have agreed to indemnify the selling security
holders against certain losses, claims, damages and liabilities, including
liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933. We will not pay selling
commissions and expenses associated with any sale by the selling security
holders.
PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION
The selling security holders and any of their pledgees, assignees and
successors-in-interest may, from time to time, sell any or all of their shares
of common stock on any stock exchange, market or trading facility on which the
shares are traded or in private transactions. These sales may be at fixed or
negotiated prices. The selling security holders may use any one or more of the
following methods when selling shares:
o ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker-dealer
solicits purchasers;
o block trades in which the broker-dealer will attempt to sell the shares as
agent but may position and resell a portion of the block as principal to
facilitate the transaction;
o purchases by a broker-dealer as principal and resale by the broker-dealer for
its account;
o an exchange distribution in accordance with the rules of the
applicable exchange;
o privately negotiated transactions;
o settlement of short sales;
o broker-dealers may agree with the selling security holders to sell a specified
number of such shares at a stipulated price per share;
o a combination of any such methods of sale; or
o any other method permitted pursuant to applicable law.
The selling security holders may also sell shares under Rule 144 under
the Securities Act of 1933, if available, rather than under this prospectus.
Broker-dealers engaged by the selling security holders may arrange for
other broker-dealers to participate in sales. Broker-dealers may receive
commissions or discounts from the selling security holders (or, if any
broker-dealer acts as agent for the purchaser of shares, from the purchaser) in
amounts to be negotiated. The selling security holders do not expect these
commissions and discounts to exceed what is customary in the types of
transactions involved.
Broker-dealers may agree to sell a specified number of such shares at a
stipulated price per share, and, to the extent such broker-dealer is unable to
do so acting as agent for us or a selling shareholder, to purchase as principal
any unsold shares at the price required to fulfill the broker-dealer commitment.
Broker-dealers who acquire shares as principal may thereafter resell such shares
from time to time in transactions, which may involve block transactions and
sales to and through other broker-dealers, including transactions of the nature
described above, in the over-the-counter markets or otherwise at prices and on
terms then prevailing at the time of sale, at prices then related to the
-76-
<page>
then-current market price or in negotiated transactions. In connection with such
resales, broker-dealers may pay to or receive from the purchasers of such
shares, commissions as described above. In the event that shares are resold to
any broker-dealer, as principal, who is acting as an underwriter, we will file a
post-effective amendment to the registration statement of which this prospectus
forms a part, identifying the broker-dealer(s), providing required information
relating to the plan of distribution and filing any agreement(s) with such
broker-dealer(s) as an exhibit. The involvement of a broker-dealer as an
underwriter in the offering will require prior clearance of the terms of
underwriting compensation and arrangements from the Corporate Finance Department
of the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc.
The selling security holder and these broker-dealers and agents and any
other participating broker-dealers, or agents may be deemed to be "underwriters"
within the meaning of the Securities Act of 1933, in connection with the sales.
The selling security holders may, from time to time, pledge or grant a
security interest in some or all of the shares or common stock or warrants owned
by them and, if they default in the performance of their secured obligations,
the pledgees or secured parties may offer and sell the shares of common stock,
from time to time, under this prospectus, or under a supplement to this
prospectus under Rule 424 (b)(3) or other applicable provision of the Securities
Act of 1933 amending the list of selling security holders to include the
pledgee, transferee or other successors-in-interest as selling security holders
under this prospectus.
The selling security holders also may transfer the shares of common
stock in other circumstances, in which case the transferees, pledgees or other
successors-in-interest will be the selling beneficial owners for purposes of
this prospectus. We will supplement this prospectus to disclose the names of any
pledges, donees, transferees, or other successors-in-interest that intend to
offer common stock through this prospectus.
Special considerations related to penny stock rules
Shares of our common stock may be subject to rules adopted by the SEC
that regulate broker-dealer practices in connection with transactions in "penny
stocks". Penny stocks are generally equity securities with a price of less than
$5.00 (other than securities registered on certain national securities exchanges
or quoted on the Nasdaq Stock Market, provided that current price and volume
information with respect to transactions in those securities is provided by the
exchange or system). The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, prior to a
transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from those rules, to deliver a
standardized risk disclosure document which contains the following:
o a description of the nature and level of risk in the market for penny stocks
in both public offerings and secondary trading;
o a description of the broker's or dealer's duties to the customer and of the
rights and remedies available to the customer with respect to violation to these
duties or other requirements of securities laws;
o a brief, clear, narrative description of a dealer market, including "bid" and
"ask" prices for penny stocks and the significance of the spread between the
"bid" and "ask" price;
o a toll-free telephone number for inquiries on disciplinary actions;
-77-
<page>
o definitions of significant terms in the disclosure document or in the conduct
of trading in penny stocks; and
o other information as the SEC may require by rule or regulation.
Prior to effecting any transaction in a penny stock, the broker-dealer
also must provide the customer the following:
o the bid and offer quotations for the penny stock;
o the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson in the transaction;
o the number of shares to which such bid and ask prices apply, or other
comparable information relating to the depth and liquidity of the market for
such stock; and
o monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held
in the customer's account.
In addition, the penny stock rules require that prior to a transaction
in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from those rules, the broker-dealer must
make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable
investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser's written acknowledgment
of the receipt of a risk disclosure statement, a written agreement to
transactions involving penny stocks, and a signed and dated copy of a written
statement. These disclosure requirements may have the effect of reducing the
trading activity in the secondary market for a stock that becomes subject to the
penny stock rules. Holders of shares of our common stock may have difficulty
selling those shares because our common stock may be subject to the penny stock
rules.
SHARES ELIGIBLE FOR FUTURE SALE
As of November 1, 2006 we had 65,168,355 shares of common stock issued
and outstanding. Of the issued and outstanding shares, approximately 57,288,319
shares of our common stock are "restricted securities". We have included
18,885,896 shares, which are considered restricted securities in the
registration statement of which this prospectus is a part. These shares may be
resold by their holders as long as they are covered by a current registration
statement or under an available exemption from registration.
In general, Rule 144 permits a shareholder who has owned restricted
shares for at least one year, to sell without registration, within a three-month
period, up to one percent of our then outstanding common stock. In addition,
shareholders other than our officers, directors or 5% or greater shareholders
who have owned their shares for at least two years, may sell them without volume
limitation or the need for our reports to be current.
We cannot predict the effect, if any, that market sales of common stock
or the availability of these shares for sale will have on the market price of
the shares from time to time. Nevertheless, the possibility that substantial
amounts of common stock may be sold in the public market could adversely affect
market prices for the common stock and could damage our ability to raise capital
through the sale of our equity securities.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors
Linkwell Corporation and Subsidiaries
Shanghai, China
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Linkwell
Corporation and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 2005 and the related
consolidated statements of operations, stockholders' equity and cash flows for
the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004. These consolidated financial
statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial
statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public
Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that
we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the
financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not
required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal
control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal
control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that
are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purposes 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 amount and disclosures in the
consolidated financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the
accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well
as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our
audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to
above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of
Linkwell Corporation and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 2005, and the results
of their operations and their cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2005
and 2004, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States of America.
As discussed in Note 1, the consolidated financial statements have been
restated.

LINKWELL CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 2005
NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Organization
Linkwell Corporation (formerly Kirshner Entertainment & Technologies, Inc.) (the
"Company") was incorporated in the state of Colorado on December 11, 1996. On
May 31, 2000, the Company acquired 100% of HBOA.Com, Inc. The Company focused on
development of an Internet portal through which home based business owners, as
well as commercial private label businesses, obtain the products, services, and
information necessary to start, expand and profitably run their businesses. On
December 28, 2000, the Company formed a new subsidiary, Aerisys Incorporated
("Aerisys"), a Florida corporation, to handle commercial private business. In
June 2003, the Company formed its entertainment division and changed its name to
reflect this new division. Effective as of March 31, 2003, we decided to
discontinue our entertainment division and our technology division, except for
the Aerisys operations that continue on a limited basis.
On May 2, 2005, the Company entered into and consummated a share exchange with
all of the shareholders of Linkwell Tech Group, Inc. ("Linkwell"). Pursuant to
the share exchange, the Company acquired 100% of the issued and outstanding
shares of Linkwell's common stock, in exchange for 36,273,470 shares of our
common stock, which at closing represented approximately 87.5% of the issued and
outstanding shares of our common stock. As a result of the transaction, Linkwell
became our wholly owned subsidiary. For financial accounting purposes, the
exchange of stock was treated as a recapitalization of Kirshner with the former
shareholders of the Company retaining 7,030,669 or approximately 12.5% of the
outstanding stock. The consolidated financials statements reflect the change in
the capital structure of the Company due to the recapitalization and the
consolidated financial statements reflect the operations of the Company and its
subsidiaries for the periods presented.
Linkwell was founded on June 22, 2004, as a Florida corporation. On June 30,
2004, Linkwell acquired 90% of Shanghai Likang Disinfectant High-Tech Company,
Ltd. ("Likang") through a stock exchange. Likang is a science and technology
enterprise founded in 1988. Likang is involved in the development, production,
marketing and sale, and distribution of disinfectant health care products.
Likang's products are utilized by the hospital and medical industry in China.
Likang has developed a line of disinfectant product offerings. Likang regards
the hospital disinfecting products as the primary segment of its business.
Relying on its research and development strength, unique technology and the
competitive advantages of the numerous professional staff rooms of Second
Military Medical University, it has developed and manufactured several series
products in the field of skin mucous disinfection, hand disinfection,
surrounding articles disinfection, medical instruments disinfection and air
disinfection.
On June 30, 2005, the Company's Board of Directors approved an amendment of its
Articles of Incorporation to change the name of the Company to Linkwell
Corporation. The effective date of the name change was after close of business
on August 16, 2005.
Basis of presentation

NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
Use of estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires
management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported
amounts and disclosures. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those
estimates. Significant estimates in 2005 and 2004 include the allowance for
doubtful accounts, stock-based compensation, the useful life of property and
equipment and intangible assets, and the valuation of derivative liabilities.
Fair value of financial instruments
The carrying amounts reported in the balance sheet for cash and cash
equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses,
customer advances, loans and amounts due from related parties approximate their
fair market value based on the short-term maturity of these instruments.
Accounts receivable
The Company has a policy of reserving for uncollectible accounts based on its
best estimate of the amount of probable credit losses in its existing accounts
receivable. The Company periodically reviews its accounts receivable to
determine whether an allowance is necessary based on an analysis of past due
accounts and other factors that may indicate that the realization of an account
may be in doubt. Account balances deemed to be uncollectible are charged to the
allowance after all means of collection have been exhausted and the potential
for recovery is considered remote. At December 31, 2005, the Company has
established, based on a review of its outstanding balances, an allowance for
doubtful accounts in the amount of $13,343.
Inventories
Inventories, consisting of raw materials and finished goods related to the
Company's products are stated at the lower of cost or market utilizing the
first-in, first-out method.
Property and equipment
Property and equipment are carried at cost. The cost of repairs and maintenance
is expensed as incurred; major replacements and improvements are capitalized.
When assets are retired or disposed of, the cost and accumulated depreciation
are removed from the accounts, and any resulting gains or losses are included in
income in the year of disposition. In accordance with Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal
of Long-Lived Assets", the Company examines the possibility of decreases in the
value of fixed assets when events or changes in circumstances reflect the fact
that their recorded value may not be recoverable.
Advances from customers
Advances from customers at December 31, 2005 of $126,199 consist of prepayments
from third party customers to the Company for merchandise that had not yet
shipped. The Company will recognize the deposits as revenue as customers take
delivery of the goods, in compliance with its revenue recognition policy.

(continued)
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," The Company
periodically reviews its long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or
changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not
be fully recoverable. The Company recognizes an impairment loss when the sum of
expected undiscounted future cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the
asset. The amount of impairment is measured as the difference between the
asset's estimated fair value and its book value. The Company did not consider it
necessary to record any impairment charges during the year ended December 31,
2005.
Income taxes
The Company files federal and state income tax returns in the United States for
its domestic operations, and files separate foreign tax returns for the
Company's Chinese subsidiaries. Income taxes are accounted for under Statement
of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes," which
is an asset and liability approach that requires the recognition of deferred tax
assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that
have been recognized in the Company's financial statements or tax returns.
Income (loss) per common share
The Company presents net income (loss) per share ("EPS") in accordance with SFAS
No. 128, "Earnings per Share." Accordingly, basic income (loss) per share is
computed by dividing income (loss) available to common shareholders by the
weighted average number of shares outstanding. The Company has made an
accounting policy election to use the if-converted method for convertible
securities that are eligible to participate in common stock dividends, if
declared; however, the two-class method must be used if the effect is more
dilutive. Since the two-class method was not more dilutive, the Company used the
if-converted method. Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential dilution
that could occur based on the exercise of stock options or warrants, unless such
exercise would be anti-dilutive, with an exercise price of less than the average
market price of the Company's common stock. The Company's common stock
equivalents at December 31, 2005 include the following:
Convertible preferred stock 18,753,450
Warrants and options 35,009,865
------------------
53,763,315
==================
Revenue recognition
The Company follows the guidance of the Securities and Exchange Commission's
Staff Accounting Bulletin 104 for revenue recognition. In general, the Company
records revenue when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, services have
been rendered or product delivery has occurred, the sales price to the customer
is fixed or determinable, and collectibility is reasonably assured. The
following policies reflect specific criteria for the various revenues streams of
the Company:
The Company's revenues from the sale of products are recorded when the goods are
shipped, title passes, and collectibility is reasonably assured.
The Company's revenues from the sale of products to related parties are recorded
when the goods are shipped which correlates with the shipment by the related
parties to its customers, at which time title passes, and collectibility is
reasonably assured. The Company receives sales order on a just-in-time basis
from the related party. Generally, the related party does not hold the Company's
inventory. If the related party has inventory on hand at the end of a reporting
period, the sale is reversed and the inventory is included on the Company's
balance sheet.

Concentrations of credit risk
Financial instruments which potentially subject the Company to concentrations of
credit risk consist principally of cash and trade accounts receivable. The
Company places its cash with high credit quality financial institutions in the
US and in China. Almost all of the Company's sales are credit sales which are
primarily to customers whose ability to pay is dependent upon the industry
economics prevailing in these areas; however, concentrations of credit risk with
respect to trade accounts receivables is limited due to generally short payment
terms. The Company also performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers to
help further reduce credit risk. For the year ended December 31, 2005 and 2004,
sales to related parties accounted for 36% and 40% of net revenues,
respectively.
Comprehensive income
The Company uses Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 130 (SFAS 130)
"Reporting Comprehensive Income". Comprehensive income is comprised of net
income and all changes to the statements of stockholders' equity, except those
due to investments by stockholders', changes in paid-in capital and
distributions to stockholders.
Shipping costs
Shipping costs are included in selling and marketing expenses and totaled
$101,205 and $76,908 for the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004,
respectively.
Advertising
Advertising is expensed as incurred. Advertising expenses for the years ended
December 31, 2005 and 2004 was not material.
Stock-based compensation
Through December 31, 2005, the Company accounts for stock options issued to
employees in accordance with the provisions of Accounting Principles Board
("APB") Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees," and related
interpretations. As such, compensation cost is measured on the date of grant as
the excess of the current market price of the underlying stock over the exercise
price. Such compensation amounts are amortized over the respective vesting
periods of the option grant. The Company adopted the disclosure provisions of
SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation" and SFAS 148,
"Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation -Transition and Disclosure", which
permits entities to provide pro forma net income (loss) and pro forma earnings
(loss) per share disclosures for employee stock option grants as if the
fair-valued based method defined in SFAS No. 123 had been applied. The Company
accounts for stock options and stock issued to non-employees for goods or
services in accordance with the fair value method of SFAS 123.

Non-employee stock based compensation
The cost of stock based compensation awards issued to non-employees for services
are recorded at either the fair value of the services rendered or the
instruments issued in exchange for such services, whichever is more readily
determinable, using the measurement date guidelines enumerated in Emerging
Issues Task Force Issue ("EITF") 96-18, "Accounting for Equity Instruments That
Are Issued to Other Than Employees for Acquiring, or in Conjunction with
Selling, Goods or Services" ("EITF 96-18").
Registration rights agreements
The Company has adopted View C of EITF 05-4 "Effect of a Liquidated Damages
Clause on a Freestanding Financial Instrument Subject to EITF 00-19" ("EITF
05-4"). Accordingly, the Company classifies as liability instruments, the fair
value of registration rights agreements when such agreements (i) require it to
file, and cause to be declared effective under the Securities Act, a
registration statement with the SEC within contractually fixed time periods, and
(ii) provide for the payment of liquidating damages in the event of its failure
to comply with such agreements. Under View C of EITF 05-4, (i) registration
rights with these characteristics are accounted for as derivative financial
instruments at fair value and (ii) contracts that are (a) indexed to and
potentially settled in an issuer's own stock and (b) permit gross physical or
net share settlement with no net cash settlement alternative are classified as
equity instruments. At December 31, 2005, the Company recorded a registration
rights penalty expense of $44,000, which has been included on the accompanying
consolidated balance sheet in accounts payable and accrued expenses.The Company
has recorded a registration rights penalty which is reflected in its financial
statements, this penalty is a reflection of the liquidating rights penalty
provisions solely and does not reflect the increase in the dividend rate from 6%
to 20%.
Foreign currency translation
Transactions and balances originally denominated in U.S. dollars are presented
at their original amounts. Transactions and balances in other currencies are
converted into U.S. dollars in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards (SFAS) No. 52, "Foreign Currency Translation," and are included in
determining net income or loss.
The functional and reporting currency is the U.S. dollar. The functional
currency of the Company's Chinese subsidiary is the local currency. The
financial statements of the subsidiary are translated into United States dollars
using year-end rates of exchange for assets and liabilities, and average rates
of exchange for the period for revenues, costs, and expenses. Net gains and
losses resulting from foreign exchange transactions are included in the
consolidated statements of operations and were not material during the periods
presented because the Chinese dollar (RMB) fluctuates with the United States
dollar. Translation adjustments resulting from the process of translating the
local currency financial statements into U.S. dollars are included in
determining comprehensive income. The cumulative translation adjustment and
effect of exchange rate changes on cash at December 31, 2005 was $20,668.
Research and development
Research and development costs are expensed as incurred. These costs primarily
consist of cost of material used and salaries paid for the development of the
Company's products and fees paid to third parties. Research and development
costs for the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004 were approximately $36,000
and $76,000, respectively, and are included in cost of sales.

Recent accounting pronouncements
In December 2004, the FASB issued FASB Statement No. 123R, "Share-Based Payment,
an Amendment of FASB Statement No. 123" ("FAS No. 123R"). FAS No. 123R requires
companies to recognize in the statement of operations the grant-date fair value
of stock options and other equity-based compensation issued to employees. FAS
No. 123R is effective for the first fiscal year beginning after December 15,
2005. The Company believes the adoption of this pronouncement may have a
material effect its financials position.
In April 2005, the Securities and Exchange Commission's Office of the Chief
Accountant and its Division of Corporation Finance has released Staff Accounting
Bulletin (SAB) No.107 to provide guidance regarding the application of FASB
Statement No. 123 (revised 2004), Share-Based Payment. Statement No. 123(R)
covers a wide range of share-based compensation arrangements including share
options, restricted share plans, performance-based awards, share appreciation
rights, and employee share purchase plans. SAB 107 provides interpretative
guidance related to the interaction between Statement No. 123R and certain SEC
rules and regulations, as well as the staff's views regarding the valuation of
share-based payment arrangements for public companies.
In May 2005, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Statement
of Financial Accounting Standards No. 154, "Accounting Changes and Error
Corrections-a replacement of APB Opinion No. 20 and FASB Statement No. 3" ("SFAS
154"). This Statement replaces APB Opinion No. 20, Accounting Changes, and FASB
Statement No. 3, Reporting Accounting Changes in Interim Financial Statements,
and changes the requirements for the accounting for and reporting of a change in
accounting principle. This Statement applies to all voluntary changes in
accounting principle. It also applies to changes required by an accounting
pronouncement in the unusual instance that the pronouncement does not include
specific transition provisions. When a pronouncement includes specific
transition provisions, those provisions should be followed.
APB Opinion No. 20 previously required that most voluntary changes in accounting
principle be recognized by including in net income of the period of the change
the cumulative effect of changing to the new accounting principle. This
Statement requires retrospective application to prior periods' financial
statements of changes in accounting principle, unless it is impracticable to
determine either the period-specific effects or the cumulative effect of the
change. When it is impracticable to determine the period-specific effects of an
accounting change on one or more individual prior periods presented, this
Statement requires that the new accounting principle be applied to the balances
of assets and liabilities as of the beginning of the earliest period for which
retrospective application is practicable and that a corresponding adjustment be
made to the opening balance of retained earnings (or other appropriate
components of equity or net assets in the statement of financial position) for
that period rather than being reported in an income statement. When it is
impracticable to determine the cumulative effect of applying a change in
accounting principle to all prior periods, this Statement requires that the new
accounting principle be applied as if it were adopted prospectively from the
earliest date practicable. This Statement shall be effective for accounting
changes and corrections of errors made in fiscal years beginning after December
15, 2005. The Company does not believe that the adoption of SFAS 154 will have a
significant effect on its financial statements.

Recent accounting pronouncements (continued)
On June 29, 2005, the EITF ratified Issue No. 05-2, "The Meaning of
`Conventional Convertible Debt Instrument' in EITF Issue No. 00-19, `Accounting
for Derivative Financial Instruments Indexed to, and Potentially Settled in, a
Company's Own Stock.'" EITF Issue 05-2 provides guidance on determining whether
a convertible debt instrument is "conventional" for the purpose of determining
when an issuer is required to bifurcate a conversion option that is embedded in
convertible debt in accordance with SFAS 133. Issue No. 05-2 is effective for
new instruments entered into and instruments modified in reporting periods
beginning after June 29, 2005. The adoption of this pronouncement did not have a
material effect on the Company's financial statements.
In September 2005, the EITF issued EITF Issue No. 05-4, "The Effect of a
Liquidated Damages Clause on a Freestanding Financial Instrument Subject to EITF
Issue No. 00-19, `Accounting for Derivative Financial Instruments Indexed to,
and Potentially Settled in, a Company's Own Stock.'" EITF 05-4 provides guidance
to issuers as to how to account for registration rights agreements that require
an issuer to use its "best efforts" to file a registration statement for the
resale of equity instruments and have it declared effective by the end of a
specified grace period and, if applicable, maintain the effectiveness of the
registration statement for a period of time or pay a liquidated damage penalty
to the investor. The Company has adopted view C of this pronouncement.
Accordingly, the Company has bifurcated registration rights from their related
free standing financial instruments and recorded them at fair value.
In September 2005, the FASB ratified the Emerging Issues Task Force's ("EITF")
Issue No. 05-7, "Accounting for Modifications to Conversion Options Embedded in
Debt Instruments and Related Issues," which addresses whether a modification to
a conversion option that changes its fair value affects the recognition of
interest expense for the associated debt instrument after the modification and
whether a borrower should recognize a beneficial conversion feature, not a debt
extinguishment if a debt modification increases the intrinsic value of the debt
(for example, the modification reduces the conversion price of the debt). This
issue is effective for future modifications of debt instruments beginning in the
first interim or annual reporting period beginning after December 15, 2005. The
Company is currently in the process of evaluating the effect that the adoption
of this pronouncement may have on its financial statements.
In September 2005, the FASB also ratified the EITF's Issue No. 05-8, "Income Tax
Consequences of Issuing Convertible Debt with a Beneficial Conversion Feature,"
which discusses whether the issuance of convertible debt with a beneficial
conversion feature results in a basis difference arising from the intrinsic
value of the beneficial conversion feature on the commitment date (which is
recorded in the shareholder's equity for book purposes, but as a liability for
income tax purposes), and, if so, whether that basis difference is a temporary
difference under FASB Statement No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes." This
Issue should be applied by retrospective application pursuant to Statement 154
to all instruments with a beneficial conversion feature accounted for under
Issue 00-27 included in financial statements for reporting periods beginning
after December 15, 2005. The Company is currently in the process of evaluating
the effect that the adoption of this pronouncement may have on its financial
statements.
Other accounting standards that have been issued or proposed by the FASB or
other standards-setting bodies that do not require adoption until a future date
are not expected to have a material impact on the consolidated financial
statements upon adoption.

Restatement
As a result of a review of its financial statements, management has determined
that the Company's deposits - related party of $333,675 as previously reflected
on its consolidated balance, is not a deposit and should be part of accounts
receivable - related party. Additionally, the Company disclosed its note to
consolidated financial statements that this deposit was to be applied to the
purchase of a building from a related party in February 2006. Management has
determined that this deposit of $333,675 was applied to the purchase of a
building from related party in August 2005. The change in presentation of the
Company's deposit -related party has the effect of increasing current assets by
$333,675 and decreasing long-term assets by $333,675 as of December 31, 2005.
Additionally, this change in presentation changed the Company's cash flow
statement, increasing cash used in operations by $333,675 and reducing cash used
in investing activities by $333,675. This change in presentation of the
Company's deposit - related party did not have any impact on the Company's
consolidated statement of operations, earnings per share, and consolidated
statement of shareholders equity.
As a result of a review of its financial statements, management has determined
that the $9,375 of the Company's rent expense as previously reflected on its
consolidated Statements of Operations should be recorded as Interest Expense -
Related Party. The change in the presentation of the Interest Expense -related
party had the following effect on our consolidated Statement of Operations:
* decreasing our rent expense from $65,455 to $56,080 * reducing General and
Administrative Expenses from $878,930 to 869,555 * reducing Total Operation
Expenses from $1,210,188 to $1,200,813 * increasing Income From Operations from

to $25,657 * increasing Total Other Expenses from $91,839 to $101,214
Furthermore, as a result of a review of its financial statements, management has
determined that the $9,375 of the Company's rent expense as previously reflected
on its consolidated Statements of Cash Flows should be recorded as Interest. The

entity, and Xuelian Bian, the Company's officer and shareholder, under which the
Company purchased a previously leased building for $333,675. The funds
representing the consideration had previously been advanced to Shanghai Likang
Pharmaceuticals Technology Company, Limited.
NOTE 7 - SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY
Preferred Stock
a) Series A Convertible Preferred Stock
On May 11, 2005, the Company's Board of Directors approved the creation of
500,000 shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock having the following
rights, preferences and limitations: (a) each share has a stated value of $.80
per share and no par value; (b) each share ranks equally with any other series
of preferred stock designated by the Company and not designated as senior
securities or subordinate to the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock,; (c) each
share entitles the holder to receive a six percent (6%) per annum cumulative
dividend when, as and if, declared by the Board of Directors of the Company; (d)
these shares are convertible into shares of the company's Common Stock at a per
share value of $.08 per share,; (e) the shares have no voting rights, and (f)
the shares are not subject to redemption.
On June 30, 2005, the Company completed an approximate $277,276 (net of fees of
$23,000) financing consisting of 375,345 shares of its 6% Series A Preferred
Stock, and common stock purchase warrants to purchase an additional 3,753,450
shares. Each warrant entitles the holder to purchase one share of common stock
for a period of five years, at an exercise price of $.10 per share, subject to
adjustment. The net proceeds from the transaction will be used for general
working capital purposes.
To the extent that the investors continue to own the 6% Series A Preferred Stock
or warrants, the Company originally agreed to issue the investors additional
shares and/or warrants to protect against the Company's future issuance of
common stock or securities convertible into common stock at less than the $.08
per share conversion price of the preferred stock and/or $.10 per share exercise
price of the warrants, respectively. Prior to December 31, 2005, this provision
was waived by the investors. In addition, the Company also granted the holders
piggy-back registration rights covering the shares of its common stock
underlying the preferred stock and warrants.

Preferred Stock (continued)
As of December 31, 2005, accrued cumulative but undeclared dividends in arrears
related to the Company's Series A Convertible Preferred Stock amounted to an
aggregating of approximately $10,500 and is included on the accompanying balance
sheet.
On the date of issuance of the Series A Preferred Stock, the effective
conversion price was at a discount to the price of the common stock into which
it was convertible. In accordance with Emerging Issues Task Force ("EITF") 98-5
and EITF 00-27, the Series A Preferred Stock was considered to have an embedded
beneficial conversion feature because the conversion price was less than the
fair value of the Company's common stock. This beneficial conversion feature is
calculated after the warrants have been valued with proceeds allocated on a
relative value basis. This series A convertible Preferred was fully convertible
at the issuance date, therefore the full amount of proceeds allocated to the
Series A Preferred was determined to be the value of the beneficial conversion
feature and was recorded as a deemed dividend with a corresponding credit to
additional paid-in capital in the amount of $300,276.
b) Series B 6% Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock
On December 28, 2005, the Company closed on a private placement with a group of
accredited investors, for the sale of 1,500,000 shares of the Company's Series B
6% Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock (the "Series B Preferred Stock") along
with warrants to purchase additional shares of the Company's common stock exempt
from registration under the Securities Act in reliance on exemptions provided by
Section 4(2) of that act and Regulation D. The 6% Convertible Preferred Stock
was priced at $1.00 per share, and the Company received gross proceeds of
$1,500,000. Each share of Series B Preferred Stock, as well as the value of all
accrued by unpaid dividends, is convertible at the option of the holder into
shares of the Company's common stock at a conversion price of $0.10 per share,
provided that no holder has the right to convert his shares of Series B
Preferred Stock if by virtue of such conversion the holder would become the
beneficial owner of than 4.99% of the Company's common stock. This ownership
limitation can be waived by the holder upon 61 days notice to the Company. The
conversion price is subject to adjustment in the event of stock splits,
reclassifications or stock dividends. Thus, if all of the shares of the Series B
Preferred Stock were converted to common stock, an additional 15,000,000 shares
of common stock would be issued. The shares of Series B Preferred Stock do not
have any voting rights except as may be provided under Florida law.
In connection with the sale of 1,500,000 shares of the Company's Series B
Preferred Stock, the Company issued Class A Common Stock Purchase Warrants to
purchase 15,000,000 shares of the Company's common stock at an exercise price of
$0.20 per share and Class B Common Stock Purchase Warrants to purchase
15,866,665 (including 866,665 granted to placement agent) shares of its common
stock at an exercise price of $0.30 per share. The Class A and Class B warrant
exercise prices are subject to adjustment pursuant to anti-dilution provisions
on either a cash or cashless exercise basis. The warrants expire five years from
the date of issuance.
The Series B Preferred Stock ranks ahead of the common stock of the Company upon
liquidation of the Company. The Series B Preferred Stock also ranks ahead of the
common stock with respect to the payment of dividends. The shares pay cumulative
dividends of 6% per annum beginning on October 31, 2006, which increases to 20%
per annum if an "event of default", as defined in the agreement, has occurred.
The dividends are payable in cash or at the Company's option shares of
registered common stock. If the Company elects to pay dividends in the form of
shares of its common stock, for purposes of the calculation the shares are
valued at the average closing price of our common stock for the 10 trading days
preceding the date of the dividend. In connection with the transaction, the
Company filed a certificate of designation for the Series B Preferred Stock with
the Florida Department of Corporations on December 8, 2005. This filing
constituted an amendment to the Company's certificate of incorporation,
designating the terms, rights and preferences of a new series of preferred stock
of the Company.
As of December 31, 2005, accrued cumulative but undeclared dividends in arrears
related to the Company's Series B Preferred Stock amounted to an aggregate of
approximately $740 and is included on the accompanying balance sheet.

Preferred Stock (continued)
The Company paid a due diligence fee of $65,000 in cash and Class B Warrants to
purchase 866,665 shares of its common stock to certain of the investors who
purchased securities in this offering. The net proceeds from the transaction
will be used for working capital purposes.
The Company agreed to file a registration statement covering the shares of
common stock underlying the securities issued. In the event the registration
statement is not filed by February 13, 2006 or does not become effective by June
28, 2006, the Company is required to pay liquidated damages in the amount of
$30,000 per month until the deficiency is cured. The transaction documents also
provide for the payment of liquidated damages to the investors in certain
events, including the Company's failure to maintain an effective registration
statement covering the resale of the common shares issuable upon conversion or
exercise of the securities.
In accordance with Emerging Issues Task Force ("EITF") 98-5 and EITF 00-27, the
Series B Preferred was considered to have an embedded beneficial conversion
feature because the conversion price was less than the fair value of the
Company's common stock. This beneficial conversion feature is calculated after
the warrants have been valued with proceeds allocated on a relative value basis.
This Series B Convertible Preferred was fully convertible at the issuance date,
therefore the full amount of proceeds allocated to the Series B Preferred was
determined to be the value of the beneficial conversion feature and was recorded
as a deemed dividend with a corresponding credit to additional paid-in capital
in the amount of $1,500,000.
The Company computes the fair value of the warrants using the Black-Scholes
valuation model. The Black-Scholes model was developed for use in estimating the
fair value of traded options that have no vesting restrictions and are fully
transferable. In addition, option valuation models require the input of highly
subjective assumptions, including the expected stock price volatility. The
assumptions used in this model to estimate fair value of the warrants granted
are as follows:
Warrants
Exercise/Conversion Price $ 0.20 to $0.30
Fair Value of the Company's Common Stock $ 0.153
Expected life in years 5.0
Expected volatility 330%
Expected dividend yield 0.0%
Risk free rate 3.93%
Calculated fair value per share $ 0.153
Common Stock
On May 2, 2005, the Company issued 36,273,470 shares of its common stock to two
individuals under the terms of a Share Exchange Agreement dated May 2, 2005.
This transaction, which resulted in Linkwell becoming a wholly owned subsidiary
of the Company, was exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933,
as amended in reliance on an exemption provided by Section 4(2) of that Act. The
participants were either accredited investors or non-accredited investors who
had such knowledge and experience in financial, investment and business matters
that they were capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the prospective
investment in our securities.

Common Stock (continued)
On August 24, 2005 and effective September 1, 2005, the Company entered into a
one-year agreement with China Direct Investments, Inc. to provide business
development and management services. In connection with this agreement, the
Company issued 2,000,000 shares of the Company's common stock. The Company
valued these services using the fair value of common shares on grant date at
$.08 per share and recorded deferred consulting expense of $160,000 to be
amortized over the service period. For the year ended December 31, 2005,
amortization of deferred consulting expense amounted to $53,333.
Stock Options
Effective June 28, 2005, the Company's Board of Directors authorized, approved
and adopted its 2005 Equity Compensation Plan. The purpose of the plan is to
encourage stock ownership by our officers, directors, key employees and
consultants, and to give these persons a greater personal interest in the
success of our business and an added incentive to continue to advance and
contribute to us. The Company has currently reserved 5,000,000 of its authorized
but unissued shares of common stock for issuance under the plan, and a maximum
of 5,000,000 shares may be issued, unless the plan is subsequently amended
(subject to adjustment in the event of certain changes in our capitalization),
without further action by its Board of Directors and stockholders, as required.
Subject to the limitation on the aggregate number of shares issuable under the
plan, there is no maximum or minimum number of shares as to which a stock grant
or plan option may be granted to any person. Shares used for stock grants and
plan options may be authorized and unissued shares or shares reacquired by the
Company, including shares purchased in the open market. Shares covered by plan
options which terminate unexercised will again become available for grant as
additional options, without decreasing the maximum number of shares issuable
under the plan, although such shares may also be used by the Company for other
purposes.
The plan is administered by the Company's Board of Directors or an underlying
committee. The Board of Directors or the committee determines from time to time
those officers, directors, key employees and consultants to whom stock grants or
plan options are to be granted, the terms and provisions of the respective
option agreements, the time or times at which such options shall be granted, the
type of options to be granted, the dates such plan options become exercisable,
the number of shares subject to each option, the purchase price of such shares
and the form of payment of such purchase price. All other questions relating to
the administration of the plan, and the interpretation of the provisions thereof
and of the related option agreements are resolved by the Board or committee.
Plan options may either be options qualifying as incentive stock options under
Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or non-qualified
options. The Company's officers, directors, key employees and consultants are
eligible to receive stock grants and non-qualified options under the plan; only
the Company's employees are eligible to receive incentive options. In addition,
the plan allows for the inclusion of a reload option provision which permits an
eligible person to pay the exercise price of the option with shares of common
stock owned by the eligible person and receive a new option to purchase shares
of common stock equal in number to the tendered shares. Furthermore,
compensatory stock grants may also be issued.

Stock Options (continued)
Any incentive option granted under the plan must provide for an exercise price
of not less than 100% of the fair market value of the underlying shares on the
date of grant, but the exercise price of any incentive option granted to an
eligible employee owning more than 10% of our outstanding common stock must not
be less than 110% of fair market value on the date of the grant. The term of
each plan option and the manner in which it may be exercised is determined by
the Board of Directors or the committee, provided that no option may be
exercisable more than ten years after the date of its grant and, in the case of
an incentive option granted to an eligible employee owning more than 10% of the
common stock, no more than five years after the date of the grant. The exercise
price of non-qualified options shall be determined by the Board of Directors or
the Committee, but shall not be less than the par value on the date the option
is granted. The per share purchase price of shares issuable upon exercise of a
Plan option may be adjusted in the event of certain changes in our
capitalization, but no such adjustment shall change the total purchase price
payable upon the exercise in full of options granted under the Plan.
Unless the plan has been previously suspended or terminated by the Board of
Directors, the plan, as it relates to grants of incentive stock options,
terminates on June 28, 2015.
Common Stock Warrants
In June 2005, in connection with the preferred stock Series A Preferred Stock

NOTE 8 - INCOME TAXES
The Company accounts for income taxes under Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes" "SFAS 109". SFAS 109 requires
the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for both the expected
impact of differences between the financial statements and the tax basis of
assets and liabilities, and for the expected future tax benefit to be derived
from tax losses and tax credit carryforwards. SFAS 109 additionally requires the
establishment of a valuation allowance to reflect the likelihood of realization
of deferred tax assets. The Company's subsidiaries in China are governed by the
Income Tax Law of the People's Republic of China concerning Foreign Investment
Enterprises and Foreign Enterprises and local income tax laws (the "PRC Income
Tax Law").
Internal Revenue Code Section 382 places a limitation on the amount of taxable
income that can be offset by carryforwards after a change in control (generally
greater than a 50% change in ownership).

Litigation
The Company is not a party to any pending legal proceeding. No federal, state or
local governmental agency is presently contemplating any proceeding against the
Company. No director, executive officer or affiliate of the Company or owner of
record or beneficially of more than five percent of the Company's common stock
is a party adverse to the company or has a material interest adverse to the
Company in any proceeding.
NOTE 10 - OPERATING RISK
(a) Country risk
Currently, the Company's revenues are primarily derived from the sale of line of
disinfectant product offerings to customers in the Peoples Republic of China
(PRC). The Company hopes to expand its operations to countries outside the PRC,
however, such expansion has not been commenced and there are no assurances that
the Company will be able to achieve such an expansion successfully. Therefore, a
downturn or stagnation in the economic environment of the PRC could have a
material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition.
(b) Products risk
In addition to competing with other manufacturers of disinfectant product
offerings, the Company competes with larger US companies who have greater funds
available for expansion, marketing, research and development and the ability to
attract more qualified personnel. These US companies may be able to offer
products at a lower price. There can be no assurance that the Company will
remain competitive should this occur.
F-23

LINKWELL CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 2005
NOTE 10 - OPERATING RISK
(c) Exchange risk
The Company can not guarantee that the current exchange rate will remain steady,
therefore there is a possibility that the Company could post the same amount of
profit for two comparable periods and because of a fluctuating exchange rate
actually post higher or lower profit depending on exchange rate of Renminbi
converted to US dollars on that date. The exchange rate could fluctuate
depending on changes in the political and economic environments without notice.
(d) Political risk
Currently, PRC is in a period of growth and is openly promoting business
development in order to bring more business into PRC. Additionally PRC allows a
Chinese corporation to be owned by a United States corporation. If the laws or
regulations are changed by the PRC government, the Company's ability to operate
the PRC subsidiaries could be affected.
NOTE 11 - FOREIGN OPERATIONS
For the year ended December 31, 2005 and 2004, the Company derived all of its
revenue from its subsidiaries located in the People's Republic of China.
Identifiable assets by geographic areas as of December 31, 2005 are as follows:

NOTE 12 - SUBSEQUENT EVENT
In January 2006, the Company sold 100% of the stock of its subsidiary, Aerisys
Incorporated to Mr. Gary Verdier, the Company's former CEO, in exchange for
assumption of all liabilities and obligation of Aerisys Incorporated. The sale
of the Company's Aerisys subsidiary did not have a material effect on the
Company's results of operations or financial position.
In January 2006, the Company issued China Direct Investments, Inc. three year
common stock purchase warrants to purchase 2,125,000 shares of our common stock
at an exercise price of $0.20 per share as additional compensation.

LINKWELL CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
June 30, 2006
NOTE 1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT
ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Organization
Linkwell Corporation (formerly Kirshner Entertainment & Technologies, Inc.) was
incorporated in the state of Colorado on December 11, 1996. On May 31, 2000, the
Company acquired 100% of HBOA.Com, Inc. The Company focused on development of a
Internet portal through which home based business owners, as well as commercial
private label businesses, obtain the products, services, and information
necessary to start, expand and profitably run their businesses. On December 28,
2000, the Company formed a new subsidiary, Aerisys Incorporated, a Florida
corporation, to handle commercial private business. In June 2003, the Company
formed its entertainment division and changed its name to reflect this new
division.
On May 2, 2005, the Company entered into and consummated a share exchange with
all of the shareholders of Linkwell Tech Group, Inc. ("Linkwell"). Pursuant to
the share exchange, the Company acquired 100% of the issued and outstanding
shares of Linkwell's common stock, in exchange for 36,273,470 shares of our
common stock, which at closing represented approximately 87.5% of the issued and
outstanding shares of our common stock. As a result of the transaction, Linkwell
became our wholly owned subsidiary. For financial accounting purposes, the
exchange of stock was treated as a recapitalization of Kirshner with the former
shareholders of the Company retaining 7,030,669 or approximately 12.5% of the
outstanding stock. The consolidated financial statements reflect the change in
the capital structure of the Company due to the recapitalization and the
consolidated financial statements reflect the operations of the Company and its
subsidiaries for the periods presented.
Linkwell was founded on June 22, 2004, as a Florida corporation. On June 30,
2004, Linkwell acquired 90% of Shanghai Likang Disinfectant Co., Ltd. ("Likang")
through a stock exchange. The transaction on which Linkwell acquired its 90%
interest in Likang resulted in the formation of a U.S. holding company by the
shareholders of Likang as it did not result in a change in the underlying
ownership interest of Likang. Likang is a science and technology enterprise
founded in 1988. Likang is involved in the development, production, marketing
and sale, and distribution of disinfectant health care products.
Likang's products are utilized by the hospital and medical industry in China.
Likang has developed a line of disinfectant product offerings. Likang regards
the hospital disinfecting products as the primary segment of its business.
Likang has developed and manufactured several series products in the field of
skin mucous disinfection, hand disinfection, surrounding articles disinfection,
medical instruments disinfection and air disinfection.
On June 30, 2005, the Company's Board of Directors approved an amendment of its
Articles of Incorporation to change the name of the Company to Linkwell
Corporation. The effective date of the name change was after close of business
on August 16, 2005.

NOTE 1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT
ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
Basis of presentation
The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared in accordance
with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information
and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange
Commission ("SEC"). The accompanying financial statements for the interim
periods are unaudited and reflect all adjustments (consisting only of normal
recurring adjustments) which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a
fair presentation of the financial position and operating results for the
periods presented. These consolidated financial statements should be read in
conjunction with the financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2005
and notes thereto contained on Form 10-KSB/A of the Company as filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission. The results of operations for the six months
ended June30, 2006 are not necessarily indicative of the results for the full
fiscal year ending December 31, 2006.
The consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles in the United States of America ("US GAAP"). The
consolidated financials statements of the Company include the accounts of its
wholly-owned subsidiary, Linkwell Tech Group, Inc., and its 90% owned
subsidiary, Likang. All significant inter-company balances and transactions have
been eliminated.
Use of estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires
management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported
amounts and disclosures. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those
estimates. Significant estimates in 2006 and 2005 include the allowance for
doubtful accounts, stock-based compensation, and the useful life of property and
equipment and intangible assets.
Fair value of financial instruments
The carrying amounts reported in the balance sheet for cash and cash
equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses,
customer advances, loans and amounts due from related parties approximate their
fair market value based on the short-term maturity of these instruments.
Cash and cash equivalents
For purposes of the consolidated statements of cash flows, the Company considers
all highly liquid instruments purchased with a maturity of three months or less
and money market accounts to be cash equivalents.

NOTE 1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT
ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
Accounts receivable
The Company has a policy of reserving for uncollectible accounts based on its
best estimate of the amount of probable credit losses in its existing accounts
receivable. The Company periodically reviews its accounts receivable to
determine whether an allowance is necessary based on an analysis of past due
accounts and other factors that may indicate that the realization of an account
may be in doubt. Account balances deemed to be uncollectible are charged to the
allowance after all means of collection have been exhausted and the potential
for recovery is considered remote. At June 30, 2006, the Company has
established, based on a review of its outstanding balances, an allowance for
doubtful accounts in the amount of $62,330.
Inventories
Inventories, consisting of raw materials and finished goods related to the
Company's products are stated at the lower of cost or market utilizing the
weighted average method
Property and equipment
Property and equipment are carried at cost. The cost of repairs and maintenance
is expensed as incurred; major replacements and improvements are capitalized.
When assets are retired or disposed of, the cost and accumulated depreciation
are removed from the accounts, and any resulting gains or losses are included in
income in the year of disposition. In accordance with Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal
of Long-Lived Assets", the Company examines the possibility of decreases in the
value of fixed assets when events or changes in circumstances reflect the fact
that their recorded value may not be recoverable.
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," The Company
periodically reviews its long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or
changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not
be fully recoverable. The Company recognizes an impairment loss when the sum of
expected undiscounted future cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the
asset. The amount of impairment is measured as the difference between the
asset's estimated fair value and its book value. The Company did not consider it
necessary to record any impairment charges during the six months ended June 30,
2006.

ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
Advances from customers
Advances from customers at June 30, 2006 of $381,099 consist of prepayments from
third party customers to the Company for merchandise that had not yet shipped.
The Company will recognize the deposits as revenue as customers take delivery of
the goods, in compliance with its revenue recognition policy.
Income taxes
The Company files federal and state income tax returns in the United States for
its domestic operations, and files separate foreign tax returns for the
Company's Chinese subsidiaries. Income taxes are accounted for under Statement
of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes," which
is an asset and liability approach that requires the recognition of deferred tax
assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that
have been recognized in the Company's financial statements or tax returns.
Income (loss) per common share
The Company presents net income (loss) per share ("EPS") in accordance with SFAS
No. 128, "Earnings per Share." Accordingly, basic income (loss) per share is
computed by dividing income (loss) available to common shareholders by the
weighted average number of shares outstanding. The Company has made an
accounting policy election to use the if-converted method for convertible
securities that are eligible to participate in common stock dividends, if
declared; however, the two-class method must be used if the effect is more
dilutive. Since the two-class method was not more dilutive, the Company used the
if-converted method. Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential dilution
that could occur based on the exercise of stock options or warrants, unless such
exercise would be anti-dilutive, with an exercise price of less than the average
market price of the Company's common stock. The Company's common stock
equivalents at June 30, 2006 include the following:
Convertible preferred stock 15,000,000
Warrants and options 37,134,865
------------------
52,134,865
==================
Revenue recognition
The Company follows the guidance of the Securities and Exchange Commission's
Staff Accounting Bulletin 104 for revenue recognition. In general, the Company
records revenue when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, services have
been rendered or product delivery has occurred, the sales price to the customer
is fixed or determinable, and collectibility is reasonably assured. The
following policies reflect specific criteria for the various revenues streams of
the Company:

Revenue recognition (Continued)
The Company's revenues from the sale of products are recorded when the goods are
shipped, title passes, and collectibility is reasonably assured.
The Company's revenues from the sale of products to related parties are recorded
when the goods are shipped which correlates with the shipment by the related
parties to its customers, at which time title passes, and collectibility is
reasonably assured. The Company receives sales order on a just-in-time basis
from the related party. Generally, the related party does not hold the Company's
inventory. If the related party has inventory on hand at the end of a reporting
period, the sale is reversed and the inventory is included on the Company's
balance sheet.
Concentrations of credit risk
Financial instruments which potentially subject the Company to concentrations of
credit risk consist principally of cash and trade accounts receivable. The
Company places its cash with high credit quality financial institutions in the
US and in China. Almost all of the Company's sales are credit sales which are
primarily to customers whose ability to pay is dependent upon the industry
economics prevailing in these areas; however, concentrations of credit risk with
respect to trade accounts receivables is limited due to generally short payment
terms. The Company also performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers to
help further reduce credit risk. For the six months ended June 30, 2006 and
2005, sales to related parties accounted for 58% and 37% of net revenues,
respectively.
Comprehensive income
The Company uses Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 130 (SFAS 130)
"Reporting Comprehensive Income". Comprehensive income is comprised of net
income and all changes to the statements of stockholders' equity, except those
due to investments by stockholders', changes in paid-in capital and
distributions to stockholders.
Shipping costs
Shipping costs are included in selling and marketing expenses and totaled
$52,309 and $40,444 for the six months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005,
respectively.
Advertising
Advertising is expensed as incurred. For the six months ended June 30, 2006 and
2005, advertising expense amounted to $15,121 and $2,234, respectively.

Stock-based compensation
Effective October 1, 2005, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No.123 (revised 2004), Share Based Payment ("SFAS No. 123R). SFAS
No.123R establishes the financial accounting and reporting standards for
stock-based compensation plans. As required by SFAS No. 123R, the Company
recognized the cost resulting from all stock-based payment transactions
including shares issued under its stock option plans in the financial
statements.
Prior to October 1, 2005, the Company accounted for stock-based employee
compensation plans (including shares issued under its stock option plans) in
accordance with the provisions of Accounting Principles Board ("APB") Opinion
No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees," and followed the pro forma
net income (loss) and pro forma earnings (loss) per share, and stock-based
compensation plan disclosure requirements set forth in the Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No.123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation
(SFAS No. 123).
Non-employee stock based compensation
The cost of stock based compensation awards issued to non-employees for services
are recorded at either the fair value of the services rendered or the
instruments issued in exchange for such services, whichever is more readily
determinable, using the measurement date guidelines enumerated in Emerging
Issues Task Force Issue ("EITF") 96-18, "Accounting for Equity Instruments That
Are Issued to Other Than Employees for Acquiring, or in Conjunction with
Selling, Goods or Services" ("EITF 96-18").
Registration rights agreements
The Company has adopted View C of EITF 05-4 "Effect of a Liquidated Damages
Clause on a Freestanding Financial Instrument Subject to EITF 00-19" ("EITF
05-4"). Accordingly, the Company classifies as liability instruments, the fair
value of registration rights agreements when such agreements (i) require it to
file, and cause to be declared effective under the Securities Act, a
registration statement with the SEC within contractually fixed time periods, and
(ii) provide for the payment of liquidating damages in the event of its failure
to comply with such agreements. Under View C of EITF 05-4, (i) registration
rights with these characteristics are accounted for as derivative financial
instruments at fair value and (ii) contracts that are (a) indexed to and
potentially settled in an issuer's own stock and (b) permit gross physical or
net share settlement with no net cash settlement alternative are classified as
equity instruments. At June 30, 2006, the Company has accrued a registration
rights penalty payable of $74,000, which has been included on the accompanying
consolidated balance sheet in accounts payable and accrued expenses.The Company
has recorded a registration rights penalty which is reflected in its financial
statements, this penalty is a reflection of the liquidating rights penalty
provisions solely and does not reflect the increase in the dividend rate from 6%
to 20%.

Foreign currency translation
Transactions and balances originally denominated in U.S. dollars are
presented at their original amounts. Transactions and balances in other
currencies are converted into U.S. dollars in accordance with Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 52, "Foreign Currency Translation,"
and are included in determining net income or loss.
The functional and reporting currency is the U.S. dollar. The functional
currency of the Company's Chinese subsidiary is the local currency. The
financial statements of the subsidiary are translated into United States dollars
using year-end rates of exchange for assets and liabilities, and average rates
of exchange for the period for revenues, costs, and expenses. Net gains and
losses resulting from foreign exchange transactions are included in the
consolidated statements of operations and were not material during the periods
presented because the Chinese dollar (RMB) fluctuates with the United States
dollar. Translation adjustments resulting from the process of translating the
local currency financial statements into U.S. dollars are included in
determining comprehensive income. The cumulative translation adjustment and
effect of exchange rate changes on cash at June 30, 2006 was $6,999.
Research and development
Research and development costs are expensed as incurred. These costs primarily
consist of cost of material used and salaries paid for the development of the
Company's products and fees paid to third parties. Research and development
costs for the six months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005 were approximately $9,594
and $30,784, respectively, and are included in cost of sales.
Recent accounting pronouncements
In September 2005, the FASB ratified the Emerging Issues Task Force's ("EITF")
Issue No. 05-7, "Accounting for Modifications to Conversion Options Embedded in
Debt Instruments and Related Issues," which addresses whether a modification to
a conversion option that changes its fair value affects the recognition of
interest expense for the associated debt instrument after the modification and
whether a borrower should recognize a beneficial conversion feature, not a debt
extinguishment if a debt modification increases the intrinsic value of the debt
(for example, the modification reduces the conversion price of the debt). This
issue is effective for future modifications of debt instruments beginning in the
first interim or annual reporting period beginning after December 15, 2005. The
adoption of this pronouncement did not have any effect on the Company's
financial position or results of operations.

Recent accounting pronouncements (continued)
In September 2005, the FASB also ratified the EITF's Issue No. 05-8, "Income Tax
Consequences of Issuing Convertible Debt with a Beneficial Conversion Feature,"
which discusses whether the issuance of convertible debt with a beneficial
conversion feature results in a basis difference arising from the intrinsic
value of the beneficial conversion feature on the commitment date (which is
recorded in the shareholder's equity for book purposes, but as a liability for
income tax purposes), and, if so, whether that basis difference is a temporary
difference under FASB Statement No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes." This
Issue should be applied by retrospective application pursuant to Statement 154
to all instruments with a beneficial conversion feature accounted for under
Issue 00-27 included in financial statements for reporting periods beginning
after December 15, 2005. The adoption of this pronouncement did not have any
effect on the Company's financial position or results of operations.
Other accounting standards that have been issued or proposed by the FASB or
other standards-setting bodies that do not require adoption until a future date
are not expected to have a material impact on the consolidated financial
statements upon adoption.

to develop job training programs services and related products. Likang will be
responsible for managing and funding the job training center to be located in
Beijing, China. The Association and Likang will share in profits of the joint
venture equally. During the quarter ended June 30, 2006, Likang entered into an
oral arrangement with Beijing JinMeiHua Sterilizing Technology Development
Company, Limited ("JinMeiHua"), an unrelated third party, to act as an agent for
LiKang to host the job training program and to be responsible for the job
training program specifics. As a good faith deposit towards this arrangement,
Likang advanced JinMeiHua $249,797 to begin the development of the job training
programs and is reflected on the accompanying balance sheet as other asset. The
job training program is expected to begin in late 2006. A formal agreement
between Likang and JinMeiHua is expected to be finalized in the near future.

NOTE 8 - STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY
Preferred Stock
a) Series A Convertible Preferred Stock
On May 11, 2005, the Company's Board of Directors approved the creation of
500,000 shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock having the following
rights, preferences and limitations: (a) each share has a stated value of $.80
per share and no par value; (b) each share ranks equally with any other series
of preferred stock designated by the Company and not designated as senior
securities or subordinate to the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock,; (c) each
share entitles the holder to receive a six percent (6%) per annum cumulative
dividend when, as and if, declared by the Board of Directors of the Company; (d)
these shares are convertible into 10 shares of the company's Common Stock, or at
a per share value of $.08 per share,; (e) the shares have no voting rights, and
(f) the shares are not subject to redemption.
On June 30, 2005, the Company completed an approximate $277,276 (net of fees of
$23,000) financing consisting of 375,345 shares of its 6% Series A Preferred
Stock, and common stock purchase warrants to purchase an additional 3,753,450
shares. Each warrant entitles the holder to purchase one share of common stock
for a period of five years, at an exercise price of $.10 per share, subject to
adjustment. The net proceeds from the transaction were used for general working
capital purposes.
The Company granted the holders piggy-back registration rights covering the
shares of its common stock underlying the preferred stock and warrants.
On the date of issuance of the Series A Preferred Stock, the effective
conversion price was at a discount to the price of the common stock into which
it was convertible. In accordance with Emerging Issues Task Force ("EITF") 98-5
and EITF 00-27, the Series A Preferred Stock was considered to have an embedded
beneficial conversion feature because the conversion price was less than the
fair value of the Company's common stock. This beneficial conversion feature is
calculated after the warrants have been valued with proceeds allocated on a
relative value basis. This series A convertible Preferred was fully convertible
at the issuance date, therefore the full amount of proceeds allocated to the
Series A Preferred was determined to be the value of the beneficial conversion
feature and was recorded as a deemed dividend with a corresponding credit to
additional paid-in capital in the amount of $300,276 in fiscal 2005.
On June 15, 2006, the holders of the Company's outstanding Series A convertible
preferred stock, no par value per share, converted 375,345 shares of the
Company's preferred stock into 3,753,450 shares of common stock. Following the
conversions on June 15, 2006, there are no shares of Series A Preferred Stock
remaining outstanding. As of date of conversion, the Company's borad of
directors had not declared a dividend on its Series A Preferrerd Stock.
Accordingly, all previously accrued and upaid Series A preferred dividends were
reversed As of June 30, 2006, there is no accrued cumulative but undeclared
dividends in arrears related to the Company's Series A Preferred Stock.

b) Series B 6% Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock
On December 28, 2005, the Company closed on a private placement with a group of
accredited investors, for the sale of 1,500,000 shares of the Company's Series B
6% Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock (the "Series B Preferred Stock") along
with warrants to purchase additional shares of the Company's common stock exempt
from registration under the Securities Act in reliance on exemptions provided by
Section 4(2) of that act and Regulation D. The 6% Convertible Preferred Stock
was priced at $1.00 per share, and the Company received gross proceeds of
$1,500,000. Each share of Series B Preferred Stock, as well as the value of all
accrued by unpaid dividends, is convertible at the option of the holder into
shares of the Company's common stock at a conversion price of $0.10 per share,
provided that no holder has the right to convert his shares of Series B
Preferred Stock if by virtue of such conversion the holder would become the
beneficial owner of than 4.99% of the Company's common stock. This ownership
limitation can be waived by the holder upon 61 days notice to the Company.
The conversion price is subject to adjustment in the event of stock splits,
reclassifications or stock dividends. Thus, at June 30,2006, if all of the
shares of the Series B Preferred Stock were converted to common stock, an
additional 15,000,000 shares of common stock would be issued. The shares of
Series B Preferred Stock do not have any voting rights except as may be provided
under Florida law.
In connection with the sale of 1,500,000 shares of the Company's Series B
Preferred Stock, the Company issued Class A Common Stock Purchase Warrants to
purchase 15,000,000 shares of the Company's common stock at an exercise price of
$0.20 per share and Class B Common Stock Purchase Warrants to purchase
15,866,665 (including 866,665 granted to as a due diligence fee) shares of its
common stock at an exercise price of $0.30 per share. The Class A and Class B
warrant exercise prices are subject to adjustment pursuant to anti-dilution
provisions on either a cash or cashless exercise basis. The warrants expire five
years from the date of issuance.
The Series B Preferred Stock ranks ahead of the common stock of the Company upon
liquidation of the Company. The Series B Preferred Stock also ranks ahead of the
common stock with respect to the payment of dividends. The shares pay cumulative
dividends of 6% per annum beginning on October 31, 2006, which increases to 20%
per annum if an "event of default", as defined in the agreement, has occurred.
The dividends are payable in cash or at the Company's option shares of
registered common stock. If the Company elects to pay dividends in the form of
shares of its common stock, for purposes of the calculation the shares are
valued at the average closing price of our common stock for the 10 trading days
preceding the date of the dividend. In connection with the transaction, the
Company filed a certificate of designation for the Series B Preferred Stock with
the Florida Department of Corporations on December 8, 2005. This filing
constituted an amendment to the Company's certificate of incorporation,
designating the terms, rights and preferences of a new series of preferred stock
of the Company.
As of June 30, 2006, accrued cumulative but undeclared dividends in arrears
related to the Company's Series B Preferred Stock amounted to approximately
$.030 per share aggregating approximately $64,932 and is included on the
accompanying balance sheet. $36,987 of the accrual reflects the dividend of 6%
from April 1, 2006 thorugh May 27, 2006, while $27,945 reflects a dividend of
20% from May 28, 2006 through June 30, 2006.

b) Series B 6% Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock (Continued)
The Company paid a due diligence fee of $65,000 in cash and Class B Warrants to
purchase 866,665 shares of its common stock to certain of the investors who
purchased securities in this offering. The net proceeds from the transaction
will be used for working capital purposes.
In accordance with Emerging Issues Task Force ("EITF") 98-5 and EITF 00-27, the
Series B Preferred was considered to have an embedded beneficial conversion
feature because the conversion price was less than the fair value of the
Company's common stock. This beneficial conversion feature is calculated after
the warrants have been valued with proceeds allocated on a relative value basis.
This Series B Convertible Preferred was fully convertible at the issuance date,
therefore the full amount of proceeds allocated to the Series B Preferred was
determined to be the value of the beneficial conversion feature and was recorded
as a deemed dividend with a corresponding credit to additional paid-in capital
in the amount of $1,500,000 in fiscal 2005.
In 2005,the Company computed the fair value of the warrants using the
Black-Scholes valuation model. The Black-Scholes model was developed for use in
estimating the fair value of traded options that have no vesting restrictions
and are fully transferable. In addition, option valuation models require the
input of highly subjective assumptions, including the expected stock price
volatility. The assumptions used in this model to estimate fair value of the
warrants granted are as follows:
Warrants
Exercise/Conversion Price $ 0.20 to $0.30
Fair Value of the Company's Common Stock $ 0.153
Expected life in years 5.0
Expected volatility 330%
Expected dividend yield 0.0%
Risk free rate 3.93%
Calculated fair value per share $ 0.153
Common Stock
For the six months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005, amortization of stock based

Year 2000 Equity Compensation Plan
On October 10, 2000, the Company's Board of Directors adopted its Year 2000
Equity Compensation Plan under which a total of 540,000 shares of common stock
are made available for the granting of awards, a portion or all of which may
qualify as incentive stock options, non-incentive stock options and restricted
stock grants. The purpose of the plan, which was approved by the Company's
shareholders on November 10, 2000, is to encourage stock ownership by its
officers, directors, key employees and consultants, and to give such persons a
greater personal interest in the success of its business and an added incentive
to continue to advance and contribute to us. If any option or restricted stock
grant expires or terminates before it has been exercised in full, the shares of
common stock allocable to the unexercised portion of such option or restricted
stock grant may again be subject to an option or restricted stock grant under
the 2000 Equity Compensation Plan. The number of shares available and subject to
options, option prices and, to the extent applicable, the number of shares
subject to any restricted stock grant will be adjusted upward or downward, as
the case may be, in the event of any subdivision or consolidation of shares or
other capital readjustment, stock dividend, merger, consolidation or similar
transaction affecting the shares. At June 30, 2006, the Company did not have any
options to purchase shares of its common stock outstanding under the plan.
The 2000 Equity Compensation Plan is administered by the Company's Board of
Directors who have the sole authority to determine which eligible employees of
the company receive options and restricted stock grants under the plan, the
times when options and restricted stock grants are granted, the number of shares
covered by the option and restricted stock grant, the provisions of any
agreement and when options may be exercised or when restricted stock grants
become vested. In addition, the Board has the power and authority to construe
and interpret the Plan.
Stock options may be granted by the Board at prices determined in the discretion
of the Board, provided that the option price must be at least equal to the fair
market value of the common stock on the date of the grant. The option price is
payable in cash, common stock or such other form of payment as may be determined
by the Board. The exercise price of an incentive stock option must be at least
equal to the fair market value of the Company's common stock on the date of
grant or 110% of such value in the case of options granted to an individual who
is a 10% or greater shareholder of the company.

of 5,000,000 shares may be issued, unless the plan is subsequently amended
(subject to adjustment in the event of certain changes in our capitalization),
without further action by its Board of Directors and stockholders, as required.
Subject to the limitation on the aggregate number of shares issuable under the
plan, there is no maximum or minimum number of shares as to which a stock grant
or plan option may be granted to any person. Shares used for stock grants and
plan options may be authorized and unissued shares or shares reacquired by the
Company, including shares purchased in the open market. Shares covered by plan
options which terminate unexercised will again become available for grant as
additional options, without decreasing the maximum number of shares issuable
under the plan, although such shares may also be used by the Comapany for other
purposes.

The plan is administered by the Company's Board of Directors or an underlying
committee. The Board of Directors or the committee determines from time to time
those officers, directors, key employees and consultants to whom stock grants or
plan options are to be granted, the terms and provisions of the respective
option agreements, the time or times at which such options shall be granted, the
type of options to be granted, the dates such plan options become exercisable,
the number of shares subject to each option, the purchase price of such shares
and the form of payment of such purchase price. All other questions relating to
the administration of the plan, and the interpretation of the provisions thereof
and of the related option agreements, are resolved by the Board or committee.
Plan options may either be options qualifying as incentive stock options under
Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or non-qualified
options. The Company's officers, directors, key employees and consultants are
eligible to receive stock grants and non-qualified options under the plan; only
the Company's employees are eligible to receive incentive options. In addition,
the plan allows for the inclusion of a reload option provision which permits an
eligible person to pay the exercise price of the option with shares of common
stock owned by the eligible person and receive a new option to purchase shares
of common stock equal in number to the tendered shares. Furthermore,
compensatory stock grants may also be issued.
Any incentive option granted under the plan must provide for an exercise price
of not less than 100% of the fair market value of the underlying shares on the
date of grant, but the exercise price of any incentive option granted to an
eligible employee owning more than 10% of our outstanding common stock must not
be less than 110% of fair market value on the date of the grant. The term of
each plan option and the manner in which it may be exercised is determined by
the Board of Directors or the committee, provided that no option may be
exercisable more than ten years after the date of its grant and, in the case of
an incentive option granted to an eligible employee owning more than 10% of the
common stock, no more than five years after the date of the grant. The exercise
price of non-qualified options shall be determined by the Board of Directors or
the Committee, but shall not be less than the par value on the date the option
is granted. The per share purchase price of shares issuable upon exercise of a
Plan option may be adjusted in the event of certain changes in our
capitalization, but no such adjustment shall change the total purchase price
payable upon the exercise in full of options granted under the Plan. Unless the
plan has been previously suspended or terminated by the Board of Directors, the
plan, as it relates to grants of incentive stock options, terminates on June 28,
2015.
During the six months ended June 30, 2006, the Company did not grant any stock
options.
As of June 30, 2006, there are no unrecognized compensation costs since all
options granted under the stock option plans are completely vested.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
June 30, 2006
NOTE 9 - OPERATING RISK (continued)
(b) Products risk
In addition to competing with other manufacturers of disinfectant product
offerings, the Company competes with larger US companies who have greater funds
available for expansion, marketing, research and development and the ability to
attract more qualified personnel. These US companies may be able to offer
products at a lower price. There can be no assurance that the Company will
remain competitive should this occur.
(c) Exchange risk
The Company can not guarantee that the current exchange rate will remain steady,
therefore there is a possibility that the Company could post the same amount of
profit for two comparable periods and because of a fluctuating exchange rate
actually post higher or lower profit depending on exchange rate of Remnibi
converted to US dollars on that date. The exchange rate could fluctuate
depending on changes in the political and economic environments without notice.
(d) Political risk
Currently, PRC is in a period of growth and is openly promoting business
development in order to bring more business into PRC. Additionally PRC allows a
Chinese corporation to be owned by a United States corporation. If the laws or
regulations are changed by the PRC government, the Company's ability to operate
the PRC subsidiaries could be affected.
