Cautionary Statement Concerning Forward-Looking Statements

Our representatives and we may from time to time make written or oral statements that are "forward-looking," including statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, reports to our stockholders and news releases. All statements that express expectations, estimates, forecasts or projections are forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Act. In addition, other written or oral statements which constitute forward-looking statements may be made by us or on our behalf. Words such as "expects," "anticipates," "intends," "plans," "believes," "seeks," "estimates," "projects," "forecasts," "may," "should," variations of such words and similar expressions are intended to identify such forward-looking statements. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions which are difficult to predict. These risks may relate to, without limitation:

we have a significant working capital shortage; as of the filing date of this report, we are currently in default in payment of $1,000,000 of indebtedness which became due in March 2009 and $268,000 of indebtedness (plus redemption penalties and accrued interest) which became due in June 2009, and may face litigation or even bankruptcy if we are unable to meet or restructure our obligations;

·	we need to raise additional capital which may not be available on acceptable terms or at all;

·	we have a history of substantial losses, may incur additional losses in 2010 and beyond, and may never achieve or maintain profitability;

·	our revenues and operating results are likely to fluctuate significantly;

·	we have only generated limited revenues and may never achieve profitability;

·	our equipment business is small and projected revenues may not materialize;

·	we are required to raise additional capital to support our Kraft Elektronkai Zrt operating subsidiary and complete our acquisition of BudaSolar Technologies Co., Ltd.;

our sole customer has advised that they are withholding their final payment to us due to certain maintenance and repair complaints with respect to our amorphous silicon equipment line, even though we are seeking to resolve the dispute with this customer and expect to be able to collect the payment in full;

·	our inability to perform under significant contracts would have a material adverse effect on our consolidated business and prospects;

·	we may not be able to complete our proposed acquisition of BudaSolar Technologies Co., Ltd.;

·	we may be unable to acquire a significant equity interest in Algatec Solar AG;

·	our equipment business is dependent on one customer and loss of this customer will have a negative impact on our operations;

·	evaluating our business and future prospects may be difficult due to the rapidly changing market landscape;

·	our “turnkey” manufacturing facility may not gain market acceptance, which would prevent us from achieving increased sales and market share;

·	technological changes in the solar power industry could render our turnkey manufacturing facilities uncompetitive or obsolete, which could reduce our market share and cause our sales to decline;

·	we face risks associated with the marketing, development and sale of our turnkey facilities internationally, and if we are unable to effectively manage these risks, it could impair our ability to expand our business abroad;

·	we may not be able to successfully develop and commercialize our turnkey PV manufacturing facilities which would result in continued losses and may require us to curtail or cease;

·	our fixed-price contracts could subject us to losses in the event that we have cost overruns;

·	we have a few proprietary rights, the lack of which may make it easier for our competitors to compete against us;

·	we depend on the services of key executives and technical and other personnel, the loss of whom could materially harm our business or reduce our operational effectiveness;

·	we do not maintain theft or casualty insurance and only maintain modest liability and property insurance coverage and therefore we could incur losses as a result of an uninsured loss;

·	our research and development activities may not yield any commercially viable technologies; and

·	governmental regulation may have a negative impact on our business.

Therefore, actual outcomes and results may differ materially from what is expressed or forecasted in or suggested by such forward-looking statements. We undertake no obligation to publicly revise these forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances that arise after the date hereof. Readers should carefully review the factors described herein and in other documents we file from time to time with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, Annual Reports on Form 10-K, and any Current Reports on Form 8-K filed by us.

NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

A summary of the significant accounting policies applied in the presentation of the accompanying financial statements are as follows:

General

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Solar Thin Film, Inc., (“Solar” or the “Company”), have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements.

In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Accordingly, the results from operations for the three-month period ended March 31, 2010, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2010. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated December 31, 2009 financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company's Form 10-K filed with the SEC on April 15, 2010.

The consolidated financial statements as December 31, 2009 have been derived from the audited consolidated financial statements at that date but do not include all disclosures required by the accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Business and Basis of Presentation

The Company is incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware, and is in the business of designing, manufacturing and marketing “turnkey” systems and equipment for the manufacture of low cost thin film solar modules and building integrated photovoltaic tags on a world-wide basis.

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Superior Ventures Corp. and Kraft Elektronikai Zrt. (“Kraft”) and majority owned subsidiary, Solar Thin Power, Inc. (“Solar Thin Power”). All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

The Company consummated an Agreement and Plan of Merger dated June 30, 2009 (the “Agreement”) with Solar Thin Power and its shareholders, pursuant to which Solar Thin Power was merged with and into the Company (the “Merger”). Following the Merger, effective on June 30 2009, Solar Thin Power is operated as a division of the Company.

NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

Revenue Recognition

For revenue from Equipment sales, which include equipment and sometimes installation, the Company recognizes revenue in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification subtopic 605-10, Revenue Recognition (“ASC 605-10”). ASC 605-10 requires that four basic criteria must be met before revenue can be recognized: (1) Persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; (2) delivery has occurred; (3) the selling price is fixed and determinable; and (4) collectibility is reasonably assured.

Determination of criteria (3) and (4) are based on management’s judgments regarding the fixed nature of the selling prices of the products delivered and the collectibility of those amounts. Provisions for discounts and rebates to customers, estimated returns and allowances, and other adjustments are provided for in the same period the related sales are recorded. The Company defers any revenue for which the product has not been delivered or is subject to refund until such time that the Company and the customer jointly determine that the product has been delivered or no refund will be required. Deferred revenues as of March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009 amounted to $2,253,826 and $2,373,067, respectively. The change represents foreign currency translation only. ASC 605-10 incorporates Accounting Standards Codification subtopic 605-25, Multiple-Element Arraignments (“ASC 605-25”). ASC 605-25 addresses accounting for arrangements that may involve the delivery or performance of multiple products, services and/or rights to use assets.

The Company recognizes revenue when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, the price to the customer is fixed, collectibility is reasonable assured and title and risk of ownership is passed to the customer, which is usually upon shipment. However, certain customers traditionally have requested to take title and risk of ownership prior to shipment. Revenue for these transactions is recognized only when:

Title and risk of ownership have passed to the customer;

The Company has obtained a written fixed purchase commitment;

The customer has requested the transaction be on a bill and hold basis;

	4.	The customer has provided a delivery schedule;

	5.	All performance obligations related to the sale have been completed;

	6.	The product has been processed to the customer’s specifications, accepted by the customer and made ready for shipment; and

	7.	The product is segregated and is not available to fill other orders.

The remittance terms for these “bill and hold” transactions are consistent with all other sale by the Company. There were no bill and hold transactions at March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009.

NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

Revenue Recognition (Continued)

For Complete Factory sales, which include sale of equipment, installation, and commissioning, the Company recognizes revenues from the product portion (pieces of equipment) on shipment and services portion (installation and commissioning process) upon completion of the installation and commissioning process. The commissioning includes a range of consulting services necessary to successfully complete a performance test, such as training of management, engineering and production personnel, debugging and resolving problems, initial oversight or support for vendor relations and purchasing, documentation and transfer of process knowledge and potential co-management of the production line during performance testing or completion of the training process.

The Company has accounted for its Equipment Sales and Factory Sales arrangements as separate units of accounting as a) the shipped equipment (both Equipment Sales and Factory Sales) has value to the customer on a standalone basis, b) there is an objective and reliable evidence of the fair value of the service portion of the revenue (installation and commissioning) approximated by the fair value that a third party would charge the Company’s customer for the installation and commissioning fees if the customer so desired not to use the Company’s services (or the customer could complete the process using the information in the owner’s manual, although it would probably take significantly longer than it would take the Company’s technicians and or a third party to perform the installation and commissioning process), and c) there is no right of return for the shipped equipment and all equipments are inspected and approved by the customer before shipment.

Segment information

Accounting Standards Codification subtopic Segment Reporting 280-10 (“ASC 280-10”) which establishes standards for reporting information regarding operating segments in annual financial statements and requires selected information for those segments to be presented in interim financial reports issued to stockholders. ASC 280-10 also establishes standards for related disclosures about products and services and geographic areas. Operating segments are identified as components of an enterprise about which separate discrete financial information is available for evaluation by the chief operating decision maker, or decision-making group, in making decisions how to allocate resources and assess performance. The Company applies the management approach to the identification of our reportable operating segment as provided in accordance with ASC 280-10. The information disclosed herein materially represents all of the financial information related to the Company’s principal operating segment

Reclassification

Certain reclassifications have been made to prior periods’ data to conform with the current year’s presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on reported income or losses.

Stock Based Compensation

Effective for the year beginning January 1, 2006, the Company has adopted Accounting Standards Codification subtopic 718-10, Compensation (“ASC 718-10”). The Company made no employee stock-based compensation grants before December 31, 2005 and therefore has no unrecognized stock compensation related liabilities or expense unvested or vested prior to 2006. Stock-based compensation expense in connection with stock options granted, vested and re-priced in the aggregate amount of $24,822 and $329,836 was charged to operating for the three month period ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. There was no grant of stock based compensations during the quarter ended March 31, 2010.

Net income (loss) per share

The Company accounts for net (loss) income per share in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification subtopic 260-10, Earnings Per Share (“ASC 260-10”), which requires presentation of basic and diluted earnings per share (“EPS”) on the face of the statement of operations for all entities with complex capital structures and requires a reconciliation of the numerator and denominator of the basic EPS computation to the numerator and denominator of the diluted EPS.

Basic net (loss) income per share is computed by dividing net (loss) income by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during each period. It excludes the dilutive effects of potentially issuable common shares such as those related to our convertible notes, warrants and stock options. Diluted net (loss) income per share is calculated by including potentially dilutive share issuances in the denominator. However, diluted net (loss) per share for the three month periods ended March 31, 2010 and 2009 do not reflect the effects of 306,702 shares potentially issuable upon conversion of our convertible preferred shares as of March 31, 2010 and 2009; 253,600 and 484,600 shares potentially issuable upon the conversion of convertible debt as of March 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively; and -0- shares potentially issuable upon the exercise of the Company's stock options and warrants (calculated using the treasury stock method) as of March 31, 2010 and 2009. These potentially issuable shares would have an anti-dilutive effect on our net (loss) per share.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In March 2010, the FASB issued new accounting guidance, under ASC Topic 605 on Revenue Recognition. This standard provides that the milestone method is a valid application of the proportional performance model for revenue recognition if the milestones are substantive and there is substantive uncertainty about whether the milestones will be achieved. Determining whether a milestone is substantive requires judgment that should be made at the inception of the arrangement. To meet the definition of a substantive milestone, the consideration earned by achieving the milestone (1) would have to be commensurate with either the level of effort required to achieve the milestone or the enhancement in the value of the item delivered, (2) would have to relate solely to past performance, and (3) should be reasonable relative to all deliverables and payment terms in the arrangement. No bifurcation of an individual milestone is allowed and there can be more than one milestone in an arrangement. The standard is effective for interim and annual periods beginning on or after June 15, 2010. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of this guidance will have on its condensed consolidated financial statements.

In February 2010, the FASB issued ASU No. 2010-09, which updates the guidance in ASC 855, Subsequent Events, such that companies that file with the SEC will no longer be required to indicate the date through which they have analyzed subsequent events. This updated guidance became effective immediately upon issuance and was adopted as of the first quarter of 2010.

NOTE 2 - GOING CONCERN MATTERS

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. As shown in the accompanying consolidated financial statements, the Company incurred a loss of $858,391 and $544,482 for the three month periods ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. Additionally, the Company has current liabilities in excess of current assets in the amount of $4,580,954 as of March 31, 2010. The Company is currently in default in the payment of certain notes payable. These factors among others raised substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

The Company has undertaken further steps as part of a plan to improve operations with the goal of sustaining our operations for the next twelve months and beyond to address its lack of liquidity by raising additional funds, either in the form of debt or equity or some combination thereof. However, there can be no assurance that the Company can successfully accomplish these steps and or business plans, and it is uncertain that the Company will achieve a profitable level of operations and be able to obtain additional financing.

The Company’s continued existence is dependent upon management’s ability to develop profitable operations and resolve its liquidity problems. The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of asset carrying amounts or the amount and classification of liabilities that might result should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

There can be no assurance that any additional financings will be available to the Company on satisfactory terms and conditions, if at all. In the event that the Company is unable to continue as a going concern, it may elect or be required to seek protection from its creditors by filing a voluntary petition in bankruptcy or may be subject to an involuntary petition in bankruptcy. To date, management has not considered this alternative, nor does management view it as a likely occurrence.

The Company did not repay the note at its maturity in June 2009. As a result of the default, the Investors may seek a redemption premium equal to 125% of the outstanding principal amount. At March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009, the Company had accrued redemption penalty in an aggregate amount of $67,000, which represents the redemption premium in excess of the outstanding notes principal of $268,000 that was included in the Company’s current liabilities.

However, there can be no assurance that the Company will enter into definitive settlement agreements to retire or reconstitute the remaining outstanding 2006 convertible notes. If the Company is unable to enter into settlement or other agreements with the Investors, or is unable to obtain financing on terms acceptable to the Company in order to repay the outstanding debt owed to the Investors, the Investors may elect to exercise their first priority security interest in all of the assets of the Company, as well as sell, transfer or assign the Pledged Shares. In such event, the Company may be required to cease operations and /or seek protection from its creditors under the Federal Bankruptcy Act.

On February 1, 2010, the Company issued a forbearance agreement of $400,000 whereby the Company agreed to issue 75,000 shares of common stock, accrue interest at 18% per annum from March 4, 2009 through February 4, 2010, 8% per annum thereafter with the note due January 31, 2011.

Lease agreement

In November 2005, the Company entered into a three year fixed term lease agreement for our corporate offices and facilities in Budapest, Hungary at a rate ranging from $4,543 to $15,433 per month as the lease has provisions for additional space for the period calendar year of 2006 and beyond. The lease agreement provides for moderate increases in rent after the first year in accordance with the inflationary index published by the Central Statistical Office. In November 2007, the terms of the lease agreement were modified effectively increasing the monthly rent to $20,800 per month starting on January 1, 2008 for the next three years through December 31, 2010. The Company also has other month to month leases for its offices and facilities. The minimum future cash flow for the leases at March 31, 2010 is as follows:

		Amount:
Year ending December 31, 2010		$	187,200

During the year ended December 31, 2009, the Company abandoned their facilities in Budapest, Hungary. As such the Company accrued $250,000 for potential lease cancellation penalties at December 31, 2009. Settlement is currently under negotiations.

Litigation

Grace Brothers Ltd. vs. Solar Thin Films, Inc. (Supreme Court, New York State, New York County). On March 4, 2009, Grace Brothers Ltd. brought an action against the Company in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of New York, seeking damages of approximately $255,000 in alleged registration delay penalties. On July 16, 2009, the Company filed its answer to the complaint denying all of Grace’s allegations. The Company is attempting to resolve the matter amicably. However, in the event litigation proceeds, it will be aggressively defended. Management believes that the plaintiff’s suit is without merit, and further believes the ultimate outcome of this matter will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or liquidity.

From time to time, the Company is a party to litigation or other legal proceedings that the Company considers to be a part of the ordinary course of its business. The Company is not involved currently in legal proceedings that could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on its business, prospects, consolidated financial condition or results of operations. The Company may become involved in material legal proceedings in the future.

Contingent Obligation

The Company remains contingently liable for certain capital lease obligations assumed by EGLOBE, Inc. ("EGLOBE") as part of the Connectsoft Communications Corp. asset sale which was consummated in June 1999. The lessor filed for bankruptcy in 2000 and the leases were acquired by another leasing organization which subsequently also filed for bankruptcy in 2001. In addition, EGLOBE filed for bankruptcy in 2001. The Company has been unable to obtain any further information about the parties but believes that in the normal course of the proceedings that another company most likely acquired the assets and related leases and that a mutually acceptable financial arrangement was reached to accomplish such a transfer.

Contingent Obligation (continued)

To date, the Company has not been contacted and has not been notified of any delinquency in payments due under these leases. The original leases were entered into during early to mid 1997 each of which was for a five-year term. Extensions of an additional 20 months were negotiated with the original lessor in 1998 and 1999 moving the ending date to approximately mid 2004. The balance due under the leases in June 1999 upon transfer and sale to EGLOBE was approximately $2,800,000 including accrued interest and the monthly payments were approximately $55,000. The balance that is currently due under the leases is unknown and there would most likely have been negotiated reductions of amounts due during the bankruptcy proceedings.

Product Warranty Obligation

The Company provides for estimated costs to fulfill customer warranty obligations upon recognition of the related revenue in accordance with ASC 460-10. The range for the warranty coverage for the Company’s products is up to 18 to 24 months. The Company estimates the anticipated future costs of repairs under such warranties based on historical experience and any known specific product information. These estimates are reevaluated periodically by management and based on current information, are adjusted accordingly. The Company’s determination of the warranty obligation is based on estimates and as such, actual product failure rates may differ significantly from previous expectations. Accrued provision for product warranty was approximately $202,000 and $212,687 as of March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively. The change represents foreign currency translation fluctuation.

Employment and Consulting Agreements

The Company has consulting agreements with its key officers. In addition to compensation and benefit provisions, the agreements include non-disclosure and confidentiality provisions for the protection of the Company's proprietary information.

The Company entered into a one year investor relations agreement beginning January 2010 for an overall obligation of $110,000 including 50,000 shares of the Company Common Stock and $88,000 of cash payments, of which, $44,000 was paid during the current quarter.

Rubin pursuant to which each would receive annual compensation of $160,000 per annum and major medical benefits in consideration for services performed on behalf of the Company. Each of these agreements had a term of three years. The agreement with Mr. Kiss was terminated as part of the agreement with Mr. Kiss as further described below. Mr. Rubin’s agreement was modified upon his appointment as the Company’s Chief Financial Officer in August 2007.

The Company has consulting agreements with outside contractors to provide marketing and financial advisory services.

Share Exchange Agreement

On April 3, 2009, the Company and Kraft entered into a restated share exchange agreement with BudaSolar and its shareholders. Under the terms of the agreement, the BudaSolar shareholders were to have acquired a 49% equity interest in Kraft, in exchange for transferring 100% of the BudaSolar equity to Kraft. Such agreement was subject to the satisfaction of certain closing conditions, including the Company’s repayment of all outstanding June 2006 convertible notes in order to secure the release of the shares of Kraft pledged as security to the June 2006 note holders. Although only $268,000 of such notes remain outstanding, the Kraft shares still remain subject to the pledge agreement.

On May 17, 2010, the Company entered into a new share exchange agreement with BudaSolar and the BudaSolar shareholders. The revised transaction contemplates that the Company will directly acquire 100% of the share capital of BudaSolar in exchange for 70,000 shares of the Company’s Series B-5 convertible voting preferred stock (the “B-5 Preferred Stock”). The B-5 Preferred Stock has a liquidation value of $7.0 million and is convertible at any time by the holders into a minimum of 7.0 million and a maximum of 49.0 million shares of the Company’s common stock, $0.01 par value per share (the “Common Stock”). The aggregate number of shares of Company Common Stock into which all if the B-5 Preferred Stock would be convertible (the “Conversion Shares”) will depend upon the audited combined pre-tax income of the Company’s Kraft and BudaSolar subsidiary corporations (the “Corporations Pre-Tax Income”) at the end of each of the five consecutive fiscal years ending December 31, 2010 through December 31, 2014 (the “Measuring Period”). The target Corporations Pre-Tax Income and the corresponding number of Conversion Shares that can be exercised at the end of any one or more fiscal years during the Measuring Period is based on a “grid” of such Pre-Tax Income and Conversion Shares. For example if the Corporations Pre-Tax Profits at the end of any of the five fiscal years in the Measuring Period is $0 to $3.0 million, the number of Conversion Shares would be 7.0 million; if such Pre-Tax Income is $10.0 million, then the number of Conversion Shares would be 21.0 million; and if such Pre-Tax Income is $55.0 million or more, the Conversion Shares would be 49.0 million. On March 31, 2015, any B-5 Preferred Stock not converted into Common Stock would automatically convert based upon the Corporations Pre-Tax Income for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2014.

Upon the execution of the BudaSolar share exchange agreement, the Company provided $75,000 to BudaSolar as a working capital advance, and is obligated to provide additional working capital thereafter. In addition, we shall assume the obligations of repayment of all outstanding loans made by the BudaSolar shareholders or their affiliates to BudaSolar prior to the date of the agreement, so that, as of the closing date, BudaSolar will have either positive stockholders equity or capital of not less than US $1,000. Such loans will be evidenced by a 5 year subordinated note of the Company, which shall (i) bear interest at an annual rate equal to LIBOR plus a margin of 3%; and (ii) be subject to full or partial repayment to the BudaSolar shareholders on the earlier to occur of (a) receipt of €30.0 million down payment by BudaSolar under its thin film silicon photovoltaic solar module process line sale and purchase agreement with China City Investments Limited; provided that, sufficient funds remain from such down payment to permit BudaSolar to meet all of its obligations under the China City agreement; (b) receipt of net proceeds, if any, in excess of $3.5 million received by the Company in a financing transaction; or (c) out of excess cash flow of BudaSolar and Kraft. In addition, the Company has agreed to cause BudaSolar and Kraft to repay to Istvan Krafcsik by July 31, 2010 approximately $65,000 as repayment for a loan recently made by Mr. Krafcsik to BudaSolar.

Share Exchange Agreement (continued)

Under the terms of a separate agreement with BudaSolar, Kraft has contracted to purchase from BudaSolar (1) equipment assembly services on some of its equipment based on a fixed fee per equipment, and (2) installation related technical services based on hourly rates. In connection with these services, Kraft has paid $1,370,000 in advances to BudaSolar during the second quarter of 2009 and an additional $144,930 during the first quarter of 2010. BudaSolar has provided $747,891 worth of services in 2009 and $-0- worth of services for the three months ended March 31, 2010 to Kraft, which left a credit balance of advances wired to BudaSolar of $767,039 as of March 31, 2010. During 2008, BudaSolar received $750,000 pursuant to the Stock Exchange Agreement from the Company, which was fully repaid in the second quarter of 2009.

In the event that the Company consummates the BudaSolar acquisition, each of Messrs. Robert M. Rubin, Gary Maitland and Dr. Boris Goldstein (the current board members of the Company) and Istvan Krafcsik and Attila Horvath, the principal stockholders and executive officers of BudaSolar, have agreed to vote their shares of voting capital stock of the Company to elect to the board of directors of the Company and its Kraft and BudaSolar subsidiaries five persons, two of whom shall be Istvan Krafcsik and Attila Horvath, two of which would be designated by the Company and a fifth independent director acceptable to Messrs. Krafcsik and Horvath. In addition, such parties and the Company agreed that during the five year Measuring Period, so long as the Corporations Pre-Tax Income equaled or exceeded $5.0 million, the members of the Company’s board of directors will include Messrs. Krafscik and Horvath and other persons reasonably acceptable to them.

Agreement with Mr. Kiss and other Stockholders

On August 12, 2008, the Company entered into a stock purchase agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with Zoltan Kiss (“Z. Kiss”), Gregory Joseph Kiss (“G. Kiss”), Maria Gabriella Kiss (“M. Kiss”), and Steven H. Gifis (“Gifis”). Under the terms of the Purchase Agreement, the Company has agreed to arrange for the sale, and each of Z. Kiss, G. Kiss and M. Kiss (the “Selling Stockholders”) have agreed to sell, an aggregate of 3.6 million shares of common stock of the Company owned by the Selling Stockholders. The purchase price for the 3.6 million shares is $2.07 per share, or a total of $7,450,200 for all of the shares. At August 12, 2008, the closing price of the Company’s common stock, as traded on the OTC Bulletin Board, was $4.0 per share.

Z. Kiss, a former director and executive officer of the Company, is selling 2.0 million of the 3.6 million shares, representing his entire share holdings in the Company. In addition, Mr. Kiss has agreed to apply up to $831,863 of the proceeds from the sale of his 2.0 million shares to pay a portion of the $1,331,863 of indebtedness owed by his affiliate Renewable Energy Solutions Inc. (“RESI”), to the Company. G. Kiss and M. Kiss, the children of Z. Kiss, are each selling 800,000 shares in the transaction, and, after the sale, such persons will retain 10,000 and 200,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, respectively. Mr. Gifis is acting as agent for each of the Selling Stockholders (the “Sellers’ Agent”).

The Company intends to finance the purchase price for the 3.6 million shares being sold by the Selling Stockholders by arranging for a sale of the shares, either through a registered public offering for the account of the Selling Stockholders, or a private purchase.

The closing of the transactions under the Purchase Agreement was to occur on or about November 30, 2008, subject to extension to January 31, 2009, by mutual agreement of the Company and Mr. Gifis; provided, that if such Sellers’ Agent shall receive reasonable assurances from the investment banking firm underwriting securities on behalf of the Company and the Selling Stockholders that the financing to pay the purchase price for the shares being sold, will, in their judgment, be consummated, the Sellers’ Agent shall extend the closing date to January 31, 2009.

On December 22, 2008, the Company and Kraft entered into an Amendment to the Master Settlement Agreement and Stock Purchase Agreement (the “Amendment”) with Amelio, RESI and the Selling Stockholders under which, among other things, the Outside Closing Date as defined in the Settlement Agreement was revised to May 31, 2009. In addition, the definition of “RESI Debt” owed to the Company as defined in the Settlement Agreement was revised to the net amount of indebtedness, net of fees payable under the existing agreements to the closing date, and not to exceed $831,863 owed by RESI to the Company or its affiliates as of the closing date; provided , that if the Transferred CG Solar Equity (as defined below) is not delivered to the Company by December 31, 2008, the RESI Debt shall be an amount not to exceed $1,331,863.

Kiss shall cause RESI to transfer to the Company an aggregate of shares of CG Solar, formerly known as Weihai Blue Star Terra Photovoltaic Company (“CG Solar”), representing 5% of the issued and outstanding capital shares of CG Solar, and having an agreed upon value of $500,000 (the “Transferred CG Solar Equity”) – In July 2009, the parties negotiated the sale back of the 5% interest in CG Solar for $450,000. In September 2009, the Company collected the $450,000 and charged the remaining uncollectible amount of $50,000 to current period operations.

the $831,863 balance of the RESI Debt (the “RESI Debt Balance”) shall be paid on or following the closing date as follows:

Kiss shall pay to the Company a total of up to $434,315 of the RESI Debt Balance, such amount to be appropriately pro-rated based upon $0.22 to be paid for each such 2,000,000 subject shares sold; and

unless a portion of the RESI Debt Balance has been paid by Z. Kiss in accordance with the above, the entire RESI Debt Balance(or any unpaid portion thereof) will be paid to the Company by Amelio on the earlier to occur of (i) receipt of net proceeds of a financing by Amelio (the “Amelio Financing”) of not less than $2,000,000, or (ii) receipt of payment by RESI or Amelio from CG Solar, the customer from whom the a-Si equipment giving rise to the RESI Debt was shipped. To the extent that the RESI Debt Balance is paid in whole or in part by Z. Kiss, then Amelio shall issue to Z. Kiss a promissory note due and payable to the earlier to occur of the consummation of the Amelio Financing or one year from the closing date.

Amelio agreed to guaranty payment of the RESI Debt Balance to the Company.

Kiss, will be deemed fully paid and satisfied, and Mr. Rubin and the Trust agree to relinquish all capital stock or stock certificates in Nanergy. To the extent that Mr. Rubin and/or the Trust received notes or stock certificates of Nanergy, the same will be returned to Nanergy on or before December 31, 2008.

The Company shall have the right, within 30 days from receipt of the Notice, to purchase that number of subject shares proposed to be purchases in the Offer at the same price per share and payment terms as set forth in the Offer.

On December 4, 2009, the Company and Kraft Elektronikai Zrt, the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, entered into a Second Amendment (the “Second Amendment”) to the Master Settlement Agreement (the “Settlement Agreement”) with Zoltan Kiss, Amelio Solar, Inc. (“Amelio Solar”) and Renewable Energy Solutions, Inc. (“RESI”), and a Second Amendment to the Stock Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with Zoltan Kiss, Maria Gabriella Kiss and Gregory Joseph Kiss (collectively, the “Sellers”).

Under the Second Amendment, the outside closing date of the transactions contemplated pursuant to the Settlement Agreement was extended to December 4, 2010 (the “Closing Date”). In addition, the definition of “RESI Debt” was amended to include the net amount of indebtedness, not to exceed $831,863, owed by RESI to the Company or its affiliates as of the Closing Date together with accrued interest thereon.

Section 2.4 of the Settlement Agreement, entitled “RESI Debt Settlement Payment and Deliverables”, was amended so that the RESI Debt will be fully and finally satisfied as follows:

Kiss (810,000 shares) until December 4, 2010. For a period of nine months following the execution of the Second Amendment, the Option will be fixed at a price of $0.30 per share and any shares not purchased by the Company or its designees during such nine-month period may be purchased at the higher of (i) $0.30 per share, or (ii) 75% of the trading price of the Company’s common stock on the trading day prior to the Company’s payment of the exercise price; and

(c) any unexercised rights, options and/or warrants to purchase Company common stock owned by the Sellers as of the Closing Date, whether vested, unvested, exercisable or otherwise, are cancelled and rendered null and void.

The definition of “RESI Debt Settlement Deliverables” was also revised to mean the documents specified in Section 2.4 of the Settlement Agreement to be delivered by Amelio Solar and the Sellers to the Company on or prior to December 31, 2009.

Proposed Acquisition of Algatec

On October 20, 2008, Robert M. Rubin, Chairman, Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer of Solar Thin Films, formed Algatec Equity Partners, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (the “Partnership”), for the purpose of acquiring up to 49% of the share capital of Algatec. Effective as October 30, 2008, Algatec and members of Algatec senior management consisting of Messrs. Rainer Ruschke, Ullrich Jank, Dr. Stefan Malik and Andre Freud (collectively, the “Algatec Management Stockholders”), and Anderkonto R. Richter, Esq., as trustee for Mr. Ruschke and another Algatec stockholder (the “Trustee”), entered into a share purchase agreement (the “Algatec Share Purchase Agreement”). Under the terms of the Algatec Share Purchase Agreement, on November 3, 2008 (the “First Closing”) the Partnership invested an aggregate of $3,513,000, of which approximately €2,476,000 was represented by a contribution to the equity of Algatec to enable it to acquire all of the assets and equity of Trend Capital, the predecessor to Algatec. The Partnership also purchased for €1.00 per share a total of 13,750 Algatec shares, representing 27.5% of the outstanding share capital of Algatec.

The general partner of the Partnership is Algatec Management LLP, a Delaware limited liability company owned by The Rubin Family Irrevocable Marital Trust and other persons. Mr. Rubin and Barry Pomerantz, a business associate of Mr. Rubin, are the managers of the general partner. Under the terms of the limited partnership agreement, the general partner agreed to invest a total of $165,000 in the Partnership in consideration for 5.0% of the assets, profits and losses of the Partnership. The limited partners, who invested an aggregate of $3,200,000 at the First Closing and additional persons the Partnership will seek to admit as limited partners by the Second Closing, will own 95.0% of the Partnership assets, profits and losses. As part of the First Closing, The Rubin Family Irrevocable Marital Trust invested an additional $1,500,000, as a limited partner, on the same terms as other limited partners of the Partnership.

Proposed Acquisition of Algatec (continued)

In addition to its equity investment, the Partnership has agreed under the terms of a loan agreement entered into at the same time as the Algatec Share Purchase Agreement, to lend to Algatec on or about November 30, 2008 (the “Second Closing”), an additional $2,600,000 or approximately €2,000,000. The proceeds of the loan were to be used to assist Algatec in paying the balance of the purchase price for all of the assets and equity of the Trend Capital limited partnership. Upon funding of the loan, the Partnership would purchase for €9,250 an additional 9,250 shares, representing 21.5% of the outstanding share capital of Algatec, thereby increasing its ownership to an aggregate of up to 49% of the outstanding share capital of Algatec. The loan, together with interest at the rate of 6% per annum, is repayable on the earlier of December 31, 2012 or the completion of a financing providing Algatec with up to $50.0 million of proceeds for expansion (the “Algatec Financing”). Upon the Partnership funding the entire €2,000,000 loan at the Second Closing, the Management Group would own the remaining 51% of the share capital of Algatec. If the Partnership funds less than the full €2,000,000 loan, the additional 21.5% equity to be issued to the Partnership at the Second Closing was to have been appropriately pro-rated. On December 29, 2008, the Partnership consummated the Second Closing with Algatec and funded a loan of €2,000,000 ($2.6 million). Ultimately, the Partnership provided total funding of approximately $5.75 million to Algatec which, after allowing for unfavorable currency conversion rates, left the Partnership with a total equity ownership in Algatec of approximately 47% of the total number of outstanding Algatec shares.

Effective as of October 30, 2008, the Trustee, the Management Group and the Partnership (collectively, the “Algatec Stockholders”) and Algatec entered into a stock exchange agreement. Under the terms of the stock exchange agreement the Algatec stockholders agreed, subject to certain conditions, to exchange 100% of the share capital of Algatec for shares of shares of Company capital stock. Consummation of the Algatec acquisition is subject to certain conditions, including Algatec obtaining up to $50.0 million financing for Algatec to enable it to construct the addition to its existing manufacturing facility and purchase the necessary equipment to expand its business. On April 10, 2009, the parties agreed to extend the anticipated closing date of the transactions contemplated by the Stock Exchange Agreement to July 15, 2009. The requisite financing for Algatec was not obtained and the agreement expired on July 15, 2009.

In April 2010, the Company issued 146,900 shares of its common stock in exchange for $65,000 convertible note and related accrued interest of $8,450.

In April 2010, the Company issued 145,000 shares of its common stock, at a conversion price of $0.50 per share, upon conversion of a March 2006 note in the amount of $65,000 plus accrued interest.

On May 17, 2010, the Company entered into a new share exchange agreement with BudaSolar and the BudaSolar shareholders. The revised transaction contemplates that the Company will directly acquire 100% of the share capital of BudaSolar in exchange for 70,000 shares of the Company’s newly designated Series B-5 convertible voting preferred stock (the “B-5 Preferred Stock”). The B-5 Preferred Stock has a liquidation value of $7.0 million and is convertible at any time by the holders into a minimum of 7.0 million and a maximum of 49.0 million shares of the Company’s common stock, $0.01 par value per share (the “Common Stock”). The aggregate number of shares of Company Common Stock into which all if the B-5 Preferred Stock would be convertible (the “Conversion Shares”) will depend upon the audited combined pre-tax income of the Company’s Kraft and BudaSolar subsidiary corporations (the “Corporations Pre-Tax Income”) at the end of each of the five consecutive fiscal years ending December 31, 2010 through December 31, 2014 (the “Measuring Period”).

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

WE URGE YOU TO READ THE FOLLOWING DISCUSSION IN CONJUNCTION WITH OUR CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND THE NOTES THERETO BEGINNING ON PAGE F-1. THIS DISCUSSION MAY CONTAIN FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS THAT INVOLVE SUBSTANTIAL RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES. OUR ACTUAL RESULTS, PERFORMANCE OR ACHIEVEMENTS COULD DIFFER MATERIALLY FROM THOSE EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED BY THE FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS AS A RESULT OF A NUMBER OF FACTORS, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO THE RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES DISCUSSED UNDER THE HEADING “RISK FACTORS” IN OUR FORM 10-K FILED WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION ON APRIL 15, 2010 AND IN OUR OTHER FILINGS WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION. IN ADDITION, SEE “CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS” SET FORTH IN THIS REPORT.

Overview

Solar Thin Films, Inc. (the “Company”) is a business focused on the solar energy industry. We engage in the design, manufacture and installation of thin-film amorphous silicon (“a-Si”) photovoltaic manufacturing equipment. The equipment is used in plants that produce photovoltaic thin-film a-Si solar panels or modules. The Company operates through its wholly owned subsidiary, Kraft Elektronikai Zrt (“Kraft”). The Company expects the primary use of such photovoltaic thin film modules will be the construction of solar power plants by corporations and governments throughout the world.

On April 3, 2009, the Company and Kraft entered into a share exchange agreement with BudaSolar Technologies Co. Ltd. (“BudaSolar”) and its shareholders. The agreement restated a prior agreement entered into in 2008. Under the terms of the restated agreement, the BudaSolar shareholders were to have acquired a 49% equity interest in Kraft, in exchange for transferring 100% of the BudaSolar equity to Kraft. Such agreement was subject to the satisfaction of certain closing conditions, including the Company’s repayment of all outstanding June 2006 convertible notes in order to secure the release of the shares of Kraft pledged as security to the June 2006 note holders. Although only $268,000 of such notes are still outstanding, the Kraft shares still remain subject to the pledge agreement. On May 17, 2010, the Company entered into a new stock exchange agreement with BudaSolar and the BudaSolar shareholders, the terms of which are described below.

For more than the past 18 months, BudaSolar has been providing technical support to our Kraft subsidiary under a separate agreement. In connection with these services, Kraft has paid $1,370,000 in advances to BudaSolar during the second quarter of 2009 and an additional $144,930 during the first quarter of 2010. BudaSolar has provided $747,891 worth of services in 2009 and $-0- worth of services for the three months ended March 31, 2010 to Kraft, which left a credit balance of advances wired to BudaSolar of $767,039 as of March 31, 2010. In addition, during 2008, BudaSolar received $750,000 in advances from the Company, which was fully repaid in the second quarter of 2009.

The Company’s Kraft subsidiary is highly dependent upon the ongoing technical expertise of the BudaSolar personnel in completing and making operational the Kraft line of a-Si solar module equipment. In such connection, Kraft recently completed the installation of equipment for its sole customer, Grupo Unisolar SA in Spain. The customer has resisted payment of the final €968,265 installment due under the April 8, 2008 contract allegedly due to certain maintenance and repair complaints with respect to our amorphous silicon equipment line. We are actively engaged in good faith and productive discussions to resolve this, to establish joint research and product development efforts, to achieve international product certifications for Grupo’s a-Si modules, and to develop strategic alliances possibly including cross-ownership. The Company is confident that the full balance due from Grupo Unisolar will be collected. If the Company is unable to satisfy its only existing customer, its a-Si module equipment business could be materially and adversely affected.

Effective as of October 30, 2008, the Company entered into a stock exchange agreement with Algatec Solar AG and its shareholders, which expired on July 15, 2009. Algatec produces, sells and distributes metallurgical and other types of crystalline silicon solar panels or modules. As of the date of this report, the Company intends to acquire Algatec Equity Partners LP, a Delaware limited partnership (the “Algatec Partnership”), which, in turn, owns a 47% equity interest in the capital stock of Algatec Solar AG. As previously disclosed, a trust established by Robert M. Rubin, the President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company, owns approximately 25% of the equity of the Algatec Partnership and is an affiliate of the general partner of the Algatec Partnership. It is anticipated that the equity stake in Algatec will be obtained from the Algatec Partnership in exchange for approximately 43.0 million shares of the Company’s Common Stock. However, such number of shares of Common Stock are subject to adjustment based on an independent fairness opinion to be obtained by the Company. The acquisition of the partnership and its equity in Algatec is subject to (i) execution of definitive exchange agreements, (ii) obtaining the requisite approvals and consents of the partners of the partnership, (iii) the delivery of audited financial statements of Algatec for the two fiscal years ended December 31, 2009, and (iv) receipt of the fairness opinion. The Company anticipates that the acquisition of the partnership and its 47% equity interest in Algatec will be completed within the next 90 days. The Company is also continuing negotiations with the other shareholders of Algatec to acquire the remaining 53% interest in the capital stock of Algatec. There can be no assurance that the conditions to complete the acquisition of the 47% equity interest in Algatec owned by the Algatec Partnership will be satisfied to enable the Company to acquire such equity, or that the Company will be able to acquire any additional equity interests in Algatec.

In the event that the Company is unable to acquire BudaSolar or any of the equity of Algatec, absent an alternative strategic acquisition or a significant increase in the current business of its Kraft subsidiary, it is unlikely that the Company will be able to achieve its expansion plans in the solar business, and may be required to cease doing business altogether.

Consummation of either or both of the BudaSolar and Algatec acquisitions, as well as all other expansion plans of the Company, are subject to its ability to solve its significant working capital shortages; make payment or other arrangements for the resolution of approximately $1.3 million of indebtedness currently in default as of the filing date of this report ($1,000,000 of which became in default in March 2009 and $268,000 of indebtedness which became in default in June 2009 (plus redemption penalties and accrued interest)) and other accrued accounts payable, all of which are overdue. In the event that the Company is unable to resolve these matters within the next 90 days, it may be unable to continue in business and/or may be required to seek protection from its creditors under the Federal Bankruptcy Act.

Subject to consummation of either or both of the BudaSolar or Algatec transactions, the Company will seek to further vertically integrate itself within this industry through activities in, but not limited to, investing in and/or operating the module manufacturing plants, selling thin film photovoltaic modules, and installing and/or managing solar power plants. The Company also intends, directly and through joint ventures or strategic alliances with other companies or through governmental incentive programs, to sell equipment for and participate financially in solar power facilities using thin film a-Si solar modules or metallurgical and other crystalline solar modules as the power source to provide electricity to municipalities, businesses and consumers.

Kraft and BudaSolar are each Hungarian corporations and their headquarters are located in Budapest, Hungary. Algatec is a German corporation and its headquarters are located in Proesen, Germany. Solar Thin Films is a Delaware corporation and its headquarters are located at 116 John Street, Suite 1120, New York, New York 10038. Solar Thin Films website is located at www.solarthinfilms.com.

Company History

Solar Thin Films History

The Company was initially organized as a New York corporation on June 22, 1988 under the name Alrom Corp. ("Alrom"), and completed an initial public offering of securities in August 1990. Alrom effected a statutory merger in December 1991, pursuant to which Alrom was reincorporated in the State of Delaware under the name American United Global, Inc. Prior to the acquisition of Kraft, the Company intended to focus its business strategy on acquisitions of operating businesses in various sectors. On June 14, 2006, in connection with its business strategy, the Company closed on the acquisition of 95.5% of the outstanding securities of Kraft. In addition, the Company acquired the remaining 4.5% minority interest in August 2007 and, as a result, now conducts its operations via Kraft, its wholly-owned subsidiary.

Kraft History

Kraft was founded in 1993, shortly after the breakup of the communist economy in Hungary. Its founding members were associated with the Hungarian Central Research Institute for Physics. In 1996, Kraft was contracted to develop thin-film photovoltaic deposition equipment for production of amorphous silicon based thin-film modules, as well as complete turnkey facilities. Photovoltaics (PV) is the physical phenomenon, which allows certain semiconductor materials to directly convert sunlight into electricity.

In the subsequent years, Kraft has manufactured equipment for production facilities in New Jersey, Germany, Hungary, China, Taiwan, Greece and Portugal. In producing equipment for these facilities, Kraft developed substantial equipment manufacturing expertise. More recently as a supplier for a solar project in Weihai, China, Kraft developed additional process expertise required to allow it to become a manufacturer of “turnkey” plants, including the delivery of both equipment and services that produce photovoltaics modules utilizing thin-film technology. Kraft has delivered its first "turnkey" plant in Spain which is now in final acceptance testing.

BudaSolar Technologies Co. Ltd.

On May 17, 2010, the Company entered into a new share exchange agreement with BudaSolar and the BudaSolar shareholders. The revised transaction contemplates that the Company will directly acquire 100% of the share capital of BudaSolar in exchange for 70,000 shares of the Company’s Series B-5 convertible voting preferred stock (the “B-5 Preferred Stock”). The B-5 Preferred Stock has a liquidation value of $7.0 million and is convertible at any time by the holders into a minimum of 7.0 million and a maximum of 49.0 million shares of the Company’s common stock, $0.01 par value per share (the “Common Stock”). The aggregate number of shares of Company Common Stock into which all if the B-5 Preferred Stock would be convertible (the “Conversion Shares”) will depend upon the audited combined pre-tax income of the Company’s Kraft and BudaSolar subsidiary corporations (the “Corporations Pre-Tax Income”) at the end of each of the five consecutive fiscal years ending December 31, 2010 through December 31, 2014 (the “Measuring Period”). The target Corporations Pre-Tax Income and the corresponding number of Conversion Shares that can be exercised at the end of any one or more fiscal years during the Measuring Period is based on a “grid” of such Pre-Tax Income and Conversion Shares. For example if the Corporations Pre-Tax Profits at the end of any of the five fiscal years in the Measuring Period is 0 to $3.0 million, the number of Conversion Shares would be 7.0 million; if such Pre-Tax Income is $10.0 million, then the number of Conversion Shares would be 21.0 million; and if such Pre-Tax Income is $55.0 million or more, the Conversion Shares would be 49.0 million. On March 31, 2015, any B-5 Preferred Stock not converted into Common Stock would automatically convert based upon the Corporations Pre-Tax Income for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2014.

The ongoing operations of Kraft and BudaSolar will require approximately $3.2 million of working capital to sustain and expand their operations during 2010. In addition, if the Company were to acquire Algatec, it is anticipated that a condition of such acquisition would be that the Company provide expansion financing of not less than $5.0 million for that corporation. Accordingly, the Company’s ability to achieve it acquisition plans and expand its business will require the Company to source additional debt or equity financing from third party. Absent receipt of the final €968,265 installment due under the April 8, 2008 contract with Group Solar AG, the Company’s operating subsidiaries may be unable to pay its obligations as they come due.

Agreements with Algatec Solar AG

Solar Thin Power

In 2007, the Company formed Solar Thin Power, Inc. under the laws of the State of Delaware. Solar Thin Power was to engage in power projects. It owned a 15% interest in CG Solar Company Limited, the Company’s joint venture in China (and agreed to purchase another 5%), and was in preliminary discussions with other prospective joint venture partners with respect to marketing and financing of various power projects.

In 2007 and 2008, Solar Thin Power received an aggregate of $3,498,396 of financing from ten unaffiliated investors who purchased common stock of Solar Thin Power at $0.50 per share. Approximately $1,500,000 of the proceeds of such financing used by Solar Thin Power to acquire a 20% minority interest in CG Solar and the balance of such proceeds were loaned to Solar Thin Films for working capital. Under the terms of the transaction, if Solar Thin Power was not a publicly traded corporation by June 2009, the investors in Solar Thin Power had the right to require Solar Thin Films to repurchase half of their portion of their minority equity in Solar Thin Power for $1,767,500. This obligation was eliminated with the merger of Solar Thin Power into Solar Thin Films effective June 30, 2009.

At the time of the merger, an aggregate of 64,403,333 shares of Solar Thin Power were issued and outstanding, of which Solar Thin Films owned 43,000,000 shares or 66.77% of Solar Thin Power common stock, and stockholders of Solar Thin Power, other than Solar Thin Films, owned an aggregate of 21,403,333 shares of the 64,403,333 outstanding shares of Solar Thin Power common stock. The Company consummated an Agreement and Plan of Merger dated effective June 30, 2009 pursuant to which Solar Thin Power was merged with and into the Company (the “Merger”). Following the consummation of the Merger, effective June 30, 2009, Solar Thin Power is operated as a division of the Company and will seek to facilitate power projects and joint ventures designed to provide solar electricity using thin film a-Si solar modules.

Under the terms of the Merger:

·	the shareholders of Solar Thin Power, other than the Company, received an aggregate of 6,421,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, or one and one-half shares of the Company’s common stock for each share of Solar Thin Power common stock owned by them;

each full share of Solar Thin Power common stock that is issuable upon exercise of any Solar Thin Power warrants as at the effective time of the Merger will be converted into and exchanged for the right to purchase or receive one full share of the Company’s common stock upon exercise of such Solar Thin Power warrants; and

·	all of the 43,000,000 shares of Solar Thin Power common stock owned by the Company were cancelled.

Critical Accounting Policies

The Company's discussion and analysis of its consolidated financial condition and results of operations are based upon its consolidated financial statements that have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America ("US GAAP"). This preparation requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. US GAAP provides the framework from which to make these estimates, assumption and disclosures. The Company chooses accounting policies within US GAAP that management believes are appropriate to accurately and fairly report the Company's consolidated operating results and financial position in a consistent manner. Management regularly assesses these policies in light of current and forecasted economic conditions. While there are a number of significant accounting policies affecting our consolidated financial statements, we believe the following critical accounting policies involve the most complex, difficult and subjective estimates and judgments:

·	Revenue Recognition;

·	Cost of Sales;

·	Allowance for Doubtful Accounts;

·	Research and Development;

·	Product Warranty Reserve;

·	Stock Based Compensation; and

·	Use of Estimates.

Revenue Recognition

Determination of criteria (3) and (4) are based on management’s judgments regarding the fixed nature of the selling prices of the products delivered and the collectibility of those amounts. Provisions for discounts and rebates to customers, estimated returns and allowances, and other adjustments are provided for in the same period the related sales are recorded. The Company defers any revenue for which the product has not been delivered or is subject to refund until such time that the Company and the customer jointly determine that the product has been delivered or no refund will be required. Deferred revenues as of March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009 amounted to $2,253,826 and $2,373,067, respectively. ASC 605-10 incorporates Accounting Standards Codification subtopic 605-25, Multiple-Element Arraignments (“ASC 605-25”). ASC 605-25 addresses accounting for arrangements that may involve the delivery or performance of multiple products, services and/or rights to use assets.

·	Title and risk of ownership have passed to the customer;

·	The Company has obtained a written fixed purchase commitment;

·	The customer has requested the transaction be on a bill and hold basis;

·	The customer has provided a delivery schedule;

·	All performance obligations related to the sale have been completed;

·	The product has been processed to the customer’s specifications, accepted by the customer and made ready for shipment; and

·	The product is segregated and is not available to fill other orders.

The remittance terms for these “bill and hold” transactions are consistent with all other sale by the Company. There were no bill and hold transactions at March 31, 2010 and March 31, 2009.

For Complete Factory sales, which include sale of equipment, installation and commissioning, the Company recognizes revenues from the product portion (pieces of equipment) on shipment and services portion (installation and commissioning process) upon completion of the installation and commissioning process. The commissioning includes a range of consulting services necessary to successfully complete a performance test, such as training of management, engineering and production personnel, debugging and resolving problems, initial oversight or support for vendor relations and purchasing, documentation and transfer of process knowledge and potential co-management of the production line during performance testing or completion of the training process. The Company has started its shipment of the factory sales, product portion (pieces of equipment) in December 2008, and the service portion (installation and commissioning) is expected to be completed during the fiscal year 2010.

The Company has accounted for its Equipment Sales and Factory Sales arrangements as separate units of accounting as a) the shipped equipment (both Equipment Sales and Factory Sales) has value to the customer on a standalone basis, b) there is an objective and reliable evidence of the fair value of the service portion of the revenue (installation and commissioning) as such approximate the fair value that a third party would charge the Company’s customer for the installation and commissioning fees if the customer so desire not to use the Company’s services, or the customer could complete the process using the information in the owner’s manual, although it would probably take significantly longer than it would take the Company’s technicians and or a third party to perform the installation and commissioning process, and c) there is no right of return for the shipped equipment and all equipments are inspected and approved by the customer before shipment.

Cost of Sales

Cost of sales includes cost of raw materials, labor, production depreciation and amortization, subcontractor work, inbound freight charges, purchasing and receiving costs, inspection costs, internal transfer costs and absorbed indirect manufacturing cost, as well as installation related travel costs and warranty costs.

Allowance For Doubtful Accounts

We are required to estimate the collectibility of our trade receivables. A considerable amount of judgment is required in assessing the realization of these receivables including the current creditworthiness of each customer and related aging of the past due balances. In order to assess the collectibility of these receivables, we perform ongoing credit evaluations of our customers' financial condition. Through these evaluations we may become aware of a situation where a customer may not be able to meet its financial obligations due to deterioration of its financial viability, credit ratings or bankruptcy. The reserve requirements are based on the best facts available to us and are reevaluated and adjusted as additional information is received. Our reserves are also based on amounts determined by using percentages applied to certain aged receivable categories. These percentages are determined by a variety of factors including, but are not limited to, current economic trends, historical payment and bad debt write-off experience. We are not able to predict changes in the financial condition of our customers and if circumstances related to our customers deteriorate, our estimates of the recoverability of our receivables could be materially affected and we may be required to record additional allowances. Alternatively, if we provided more allowances than are ultimately required, we may reverse a portion of such provisions in future periods based on our actual collection experience.

Research and development

Solar Thin Films accounts for research and development costs in accordance with the Accounting Standards Codification subtopic 730-10, Research and Development (“ASC 730-10”). ASC 730-10, all research and development cost must be charged to expense as incurred. Accordingly, internal research and development cost are expensed as incurred. Third-party research and developments costs are expensed when the contracted work has been performed or as milestone results have been achieved. Company-sponsored research and development costs related to both present and future products are expensed in the period incurred.

Product Warranty Reserves

The Company provides for estimated costs to fulfill customer warranty obligations upon recognition of the related revenue in accordance with the Accounting Standards Codification subtopic Guarantees 460-10 (“ASC 460-10”) as a charge in the current period cost of goods sold. The range for the warranty coverage for the Company’s products is up to 18 to 24 months. The Company estimates the anticipated future costs of repairs under such warranties based on historical experience and any known specific product information. These estimates are reevaluated periodically by management and based on current information, are adjusted accordingly. The Company’s determination of the warranty obligation is based on estimates and as such, actual product failure rates may differ significantly from previous expectations.

During the three month period ended March 31, 2009, the Company accrued an additional $26,000 in warranty costs as a result of shipments to Grupo Unisolar, and did not incur any product warranty costs. During the three months ended the Company did not accrue or incur product liability costs. The balance as of March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009 was $202,000 and $212,687, respectively. The change represents foreign currency translation.

Stock Based Compensation

Effective for the year beginning January 1, 2006, the Company has adopted Accounting Standards Codification subtopic 718-10, Compensation (“ASC 718-10”). The Company made no employee stock-based compensation grants before December 31, 2005 and therefore had no unrecognized stock compensation related liabilities or expense unvested or vested prior to 2006. Stock-based compensation in connection with stock options granted, vested and repriced for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009 was $24,822 and $329,836, respectively.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of these financial statements requires the Company to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses, and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, if any, at the date of the financial statements. The Company analyzes its estimates, including those related to future contingencies and litigation. The Company bases its estimates on assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

Commitments and Contingencies

The Company’s subsidiaries have entered into non-cancelable operational agreements for office premises.

In connection with the acquisition of Kraft, the Company entered into consulting agreements with Robert Rubin and Zoltan Kiss pursuant to which each consultant would receive an annual salary of $160,000 per annum, reimbursement for up to $5,000 in expenses associated with company activities and major medical benefits in consideration for services performed on behalf of the company. Each of these agreements was for a term of three years and has been supplanted by subsequent events. Mr. Rubin’s salary was increased to $225,000 per annum when he assumed the duties of Chief Financial Officer. In December 2007, Mr. Kiss resigned as director of the Company and subsequently agreed to waive his rights to such payments pursuant to a pending settlement agreement with the Company as described elsewhere in this report.

On April 7, 2009, the Company entered into an amendment to the employment agreement of Peter Lewis under which Mr. Lewis agreed to resign as the President, Chief Executive Officer and as a member of the board of directors of the Company, effective as of March 31, 2009. There was no disagreement or dispute between Mr. Lewis and the Company which led to his resignation. Effective as of April 1, 2009, Mr. Lewis was appointed as Group Vice President and General Manager of the Thin Film Group of the Company through June 1, 2010. The Thin Film Group shall consist of the manufacture and sale of PV Equipment. In this capacity, Mr. Lewis will be primarily responsible for generating orders and sales of PV Equipment and he will provide general oversight of the manufacturing operations of the Kraft and BudaSolar subsidiaries of the Company, and together with Messrs. Krafcsik and Horvath, will be responsible for generating profits for the Thin Film Equipment Group.

For the period commencing April 1, 2009 and ending September 30, 2009, Mr. Lewis’ base salary was fixed at the rate of $225,000, payable in monthly installments of $18,750 each. For the period commencing October 1, 2009, Mr. Lewis’ salary shall be reduced to the rate of $180,000 per annum, payable in monthly installments of $15,000 each. On the earlier of June 30, 2009 or completion of an equity financing for the Company in excess of $3.0 million, the Company was obligated pay to Mr. Lewis in one payment all accrued and unpaid salary that is owed under the original employment agreement for all periods through and including the date of payment of such accrued and unpaid salary. In addition, Mr. Lewis shall be entitled to receive a sales commission on all PV Equipment that is sold or on which firm orders are received by the Company during the term of employment in an amount equal to: (i) a percentage to be determined by mutual agreement on or before April 30, 2009, of the “net sales price” (defined as gross selling price, less returns, discounts and allowances) of such PV Equipment, as and when paid in cash by the customer to the Company less (ii) the amount of all other finders fees, commissions and other payments made or payable by the Company to any other person, firm or corporation who participates in or assists Mr. Lewis in the sale of such PV Equipment; or such other bonus arrangement as may be made with Kraft management.

All 2,000,000 shares of common stock of ST Power owned by Mr. Lewis immediately and irrevocably vested. Moreover, with respect to the stock options entitling Mr. Lewis to purchase up to 720,000 shares of Company common stock (the “Option Shares”), the parties agreed as follows (i) options for 600,000 Options Shares shall be deemed to have fully vested as of March 31, 2009 and the remaining 120,000 Option Shares that have not vested will be forfeited as of March 31, 2009; (ii) the exercise price of all stock options were reduced from $2.665 per share to $0.90 per share, representing 100% of the closing price of Company common stock as at March 27, 2009, the effective date of the amendment to the employment agreement; (iii) all stock options for vested Option Shares may be exercised on a “cashless exercise” basis; and (iv) Mr. Lewis agreed to waive any rights to receive the 37,523 shares of Company common stock previously granted to him annually under the original employment agreement.

In June 2009, the amended employment agreement with Peter Lewis was terminated by the parties. Effective as of October 1, 2009, Mr. Lewis was engaged as a non-exclusive sales and marketing consultant and representative of the Company through May 31, 2010; specifically with respect to the manufacture and sale of amorphous silicon thin film solar module manufacturing equipment and/or equipment lines (the “PV Equipment”). As a marketing representative, Mr. Lewis will be primarily responsible for generating orders and sales of the PV Equipment. In full settlement of Mr. Lewis’ claims to accrued salary, stock options, future earnings and other benefits, he will be paid $112,500 for the period ending September 30, 2009. For the period from October 1, 2009 through June 30, 2010, Mr. Lewis will be paid a monthly stipend of $15,000. In addition, Mr. Lewis will be entitled to receive sales commissions pursuant to his agreement with Kraft.

In November 2005, the Company entered into a three year fixed term lease agreement for our corporate offices and facilities in Budapest, Hungary at a rate ranging from $4,543 to $15,433 per month as the lease has provisions for additional space for the period calendar year of 2006 and beyond. The lease agreement provides for moderate increases in rent after the first year in accordance with the inflationary index published by the Central Statistical Office. In November 2007, the Company signed the modification of lease agreement resulted a charge of $20,800 per months from January 1, 2008 for three years period of time through December 31, 2010. In July 2009 and January 2010, Kraft terminated its lease agreements covering its corporate offices and facilities in Budapest and Körmend Hungary. In addition, in December 2009 and January 2010, Kraft entered into new lease agreements for its corporate offices and facilities in Budapest, Hungary. The minimum future cash flow for the leases at March 31, 2010 is as follows:

	Amount:
Year ending December 31, 2010	$	187,200
Total	$	187,200

Disclose the abandon and accrual in 2009.

Results of Operations

Three months ended March 31, 2010 as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2009

Revenues

The following table summarizes our revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009:

Three months ended March 31,		2010				2009
Total Revenues		$	-0-			$	1,658,740

For the three months ended March 31, 2010, revenues decreased by 100% or $1,658,740 as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2009. The Company did not deliver any Equipment or Factory sales for the period ended March 31, 2010.

During 2007 and 2008, the Company began to shift its marketing focus from Equipment Sales to Factory Sales (delivered on a “turnkey” basis, which by definition include a full set of equipment plus installation and training services or commissioning process). The Company signed its first deal in June of 2008 (and received the balance of its deposit in September 2008), for which it completed its first minor equipment portion of the Factory Sales delivery in December of 2008 valued at $147,262. The Company began shipping the balance of the equipment in March 2009 and expects to deliver substantially all of the equipment for this 7.9 million euro order during fiscal year 2010. During 2010, the Company also expects that a majority of its revenue will come from Factory Sales rather than Equipment Sales, and does not expect to derive any substantial revenue from related parties. No revenue was reported in the first quarter 2010 under the Company's only contract with Grupo Unisolar. Commencing in 2008, the Company has decided to further break out its revenue into Equipment Sales and Factory Sales and to continue to do so in the future in both annual and quarterly filings.

While the Company is pursuing additional business opportunities - both Factory Sales and Equipment Sales, given the limited amount of historical business volume we cannot provide assurance regarding future sales. As the Company shifts primarily from Equipment Sales secured by purchase orders to Factory Sales secured by contracts, management expects that it may become easier to forecast future volume based upon long-term contracts and then established trends. In either case, the Company produces individual pieces of equipment (standard not generally custom) based on individual customer orders. Comparison of different financial reporting periods will show significant fluctuations, primarily due to the value of outstanding and completed contracts or orders during the period. Therefore, historical figures (whether on a comparative period over period percentage analysis in a linear fashion or otherwise) may not have much meaning with respect to future changes in revenue and should not be used to make predictions about future revenue performance. For example, revenue could increase 400% period over period if the Company booked and invoiced one or more complete factory orders or it could decrease 100% or more if the Company failed to successfully deliver on a Factory Sale order or only managed to book and invoice orders for production of selected equipment, i.e. an Equipment Sale. Therefore, management is not in the position to predict future revenue flow or make conclusions based on actual historical figures. However, we can not provide absolute assurance that signed contracts, Grupo Unisolar or other, will be completed as expected or predicted. One complete factory may exceed $12 million in value but with unexpected financial or technical problems, production may slow down the completion of the contract. In conclusion, revenue prediction by management is difficult as of the date of this report.

Cost of sales

The following table summarizes our cost of sales for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009:

Three months ended March 31,		2010				2009
Total cost of sales		$	-0-			$	828,676

For the three months ended March 31, 2010, our cost of sales was $-0- as compared to $828,676, or 50% of our revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2009. During the three month period ended March 31, 2010, the Company did not deliver any Equipment or Factory Sales.

Our cost of revenue predominantly consists of the cost of labor, raw materials, depreciation and absorbed indirect manufacturing cost.

Selling, General and Administration Expenses

The following table summarizes our selling, general and administration expense for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009:

Three months ended March 31,		2010				2009
Total selling, general and administration expense		$	702,796			$	1,169,787

For the three months ended March 31, 2010, selling, general and administrative expenses were $702,796 as compared to $1,169,787 for the three months ended March 31 2009. The decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses is attributable to reduction in staff costs, consultants, legal and audit related incurred in 2010 as compared with 2009.

Depreciation and amortization

The following table summarizes our depreciation (excluding depreciation allocated to cost of sales) and amortization for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009:

Three months ended March 31,		2010				2009
Depreciation and amortization		$	16,571			$	24,050

Depreciation and amortization has decreased by $7,479 in the three months ended March 31 2010 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2009. The decrease is mainly due to the aging of equipment purchased in previous years.

Interest expense, net

The following table summarizes our interest expense, net for the three months ended March 31 2010 and 2009:

Three months ended March 31,		2010				2009
Interest expense, net		$	130,565			$	268,214

Interest expense, net has decreased by $137,649 in the three months ended March 31, 2010 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2009. The decrease is mainly due to the debt discount of convertible debentures being fully amortized by the second quarter of 2009, and there was no such amortization in 2010.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of March 31, 2010, we had working capital deficit of $4,580,954. We generated a deficit in cash flow from operations of $524,200 for the three months ended March 31 2010. This deficit is primary attributable to our net loss of $858,391, net with depreciation and amortization and deferred compensation of $26,188 as well as $97,084 stock based compensation and stock issued in exchange for operating expenses paid by shareholders, loss on deposit and sale of equipment, $7,117 and the changes in the balances of assets and liabilities. Operating assets increased $177,726, net with an increase in operating liabilities of $381,528.

Cash flow generated by investing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2010 was $18,417 resulted from sale of property and equipment.

Cash generated by financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2010 was $23,551 from proceeds from related party advances.

Exploitation of potential revenue sources will be financed primarily through the sale of securities and convertible debt, issuance of notes payable and other debt or a combination thereof, depending upon the transaction size, market conditions and other factors.

While we have raised capital to meet our working capital and financing needs in the past, additional financing is required within the next 3 months in order to meet our current and projected cash flow deficits from operations and development. There can be no assurance that financing will be available in amounts or on terms acceptable to us, if at all.

By adjusting our operations and development to the level of capitalization, we believe we have sufficient capital resources to meet projected cash flow deficits. However, if during that period or thereafter, we are not successful in generating sufficient liquidity from operations or in raising sufficient capital resources, on terms acceptable to us, this could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations liquidity and financial condition.

As at March 31 2010, the Company’s consolidated current liabilities exceeded its consolidated current assets by $4,580,954. As of the filing date of this report, the Company is currently in default in the payment of certain notes payable aggregating $1,000,000 and $268,000 (plus redemption penalties and accrued interest) which became due in March and June 2009, respectively, and accounts payable and accrued liabilities of approximately $2.9 million are also due. Unless the Company is able to obtain additional capital or other financing within the next 60 to 90 days, or sooner, its creditors may sue to collect on their notes and accounts. In such event, the Company may be required to seek protection from its creditors under the Federal Bankruptcy Act. Although the Company is actively pursuing such financing, there is no assurance that it will be obtained on commercially reasonable terms, if at all. Even if such financing is obtainable, it may be expected that the terms thereof will significantly dilute the equity interests of existing stockholders of the Company.

During the year ended December 31, 2009, the Company repaid $640,000 to certain June 2006 investors and other noteholders.

On October 14, 2009, one of the Company’s June 2006 convertible note holders settled for a payment of $315,830 from the Company, representing $250,000 in note principal settlement with the remainder as redemption penalty and related interest.

On October 26, 2009, one of the Company’s June 2006 convertible note holders settled for a payment of $62,500 from the Company, representing $50,000 in note principal settlement with the remainder as redemption penalty and related interest.

On October 29, 2009, one of the Company’s June 2006 convertible note holders settled for a payment of $115,000 for unpaid note balance of $130,000 and accrued unpaid interest.

On December 7, 2009, two of the Company’s March 2006 convertible note holders settled for an aggregate of 200,000 shares of the Company’s common stock and demand notes of $169,167. The Company intends to issue such shares during the second quarter of 2010.

On December 27, 2009, one of the Company’s June 2006 convertible note holders settled for 940,625 shares of its Common Stock as settlement of convertible debentures of $350,000 and unpaid accrued interest.

On April 26, 2010, one of the Company’s March 2006 convertible note holders settled for 146,900 shares of the Company’s Common Stock as settlement of convertible debenture of $65,000 and unpaid accrued interest.

As of the date of this report, an aggregate of $268,000 of the Company’s June 2006 convertible notes held by 2 noteholders remain unpaid and in default, and a former holder of convertible notes is suing the Company for $255,000 of alleged fees and penalties it claims is owed under the June 2006 agreements. See Note 8, “Litigation.” The Company is in the process of negotiating settlements with such note holders.

There can be no assurance that the Company will enter into definitive settlement agreements to retire or reconstitute the remaining outstanding 2006 convertible notes. If the Company is unable to enter into settlement or other agreements with the Investors, or is unable to obtain financing on terms acceptable to the Company in order to repay the outstanding debt owed to the Investors, the Investors may elect to exercise their first priority security interest in all of the assets of the Company, as well as sell, transfer or assign the Pledged Shares. In such event, the Company may be required to cease operations and/or seek protection from its creditors under the Federal Bankruptcy Act.

Trends, Risks and Uncertainties

We have sought to identify what we believe to be the most significant risks to our business, but we cannot predict whether, or to what extent, any of such risks may be realized nor can we guarantee that we have identified all possible risks that might arise. Investors should carefully consider all of such risk factors before making an investment decision with respect to our common stock.

Inflation and Foreign Currency

We maintain our books in local currency: US Dollars for the parent holding Company in the United States of America and Hungarian Forint for Kraft in Hungary.

We operate primarily outside of the United States through our wholly owned subsidiary. As a result, fluctuations in currency exchange rates may significantly affect our sales, profitability and financial position when the foreign currencies, primarily the Hungarian Forint, of its international operations are translated into U.S. dollars for financial reporting. In additional, we are also subject to currency fluctuation risk with respect to certain foreign currency denominated receivables and payables. Although we cannot predict the extent to which currency fluctuations may or will affect our business and financial position, there is a risk that such fluctuations will have an adverse impact on the sales, profits and financial position. Because differing portions of our revenues and costs are denominated in foreign currency, movements could impact our margins by, for example, decreasing our foreign revenues when the dollar strengthens and not correspondingly decreasing our expenses. The Company does not currently hedge its currency exposure. In the future, we may engage in hedging transactions to mitigate foreign exchange risk.

The translation of the Company’s subsidiaries forint denominated balance sheets into U.S. dollars, as of March 31 2010, has been affected by the U.S. dollar against the Hungarian forint due to recent strengthening of the U.S. dollar. The currency has changed from 233.00 as of March 31 2009 to 198.02 as of March 31 2010, approximate 18% depreciation in value. The average Hungarian forint/U.S. dollar exchange rates used for the translation of the subsidiaries forint denominated statements of operations into U.S. dollars for the three months ended March 31 2010 and 2009 were 226.43 and 194.7025, respectively, an approximate 16% depreciation in value.

New Accounting Pronouncements

With the exception of those stated below, there have been no recent accounting pronouncements or changes in accounting pronouncements during the three months ended March 31 2010, as compared to the recent accounting pronouncements described in the 2009 Annual Report that are of material significance, or have potential material significance, to the Company.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We do not have any off balance sheet arrangements that are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, revenues, results of operations, liquidity or capital expenditures.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.

Not applicable.

ITEM 4T. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that material information required to be disclosed in our periodic reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or 1934 Act, is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and to ensure that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer (principal financial officer) as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. During the quarter ended March 31 2010 we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including the principal executive officer and the principal financial officer (principal financial officer), of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rule 13(a)-15(e) under the 1934 Act. Based on this evaluation, because of the Company’s limited resources and limited number of employees, management concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were ineffective as of March 31 2010.

Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls and Procedures

Our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer (principal financial officer), does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal controls will prevent all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. These inherent limitations include, but are not limited to, the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the control. The design of any system of controls also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.

Internal Controls over Financial Reporting

During the fiscal quarter ended March 31 2010, there have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal controls over financial reporting.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.

Grace Brothers Ltd. vs. Solar Thin Films, Inc. (Supreme Court, New York State, New York County). On March 4, 2009, Grace Brothers Ltd. brought an action against the Company in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of New York, seeking damages of approximately $255,000 in alleged registration delay penalties. On July 16, 2009, the Company filed its answer to the complaint denying all of Grace’s allegations. We are attempting to resolve the matter amicably. However, in the event litigation proceeds, it will be aggressively defended. Management believes that the plaintiff’s suit is without merit, and further believes the ultimate outcome of this matter will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or liquidity.

From time to time, we are a party to litigation or other legal proceedings that we consider to be a part of the ordinary course of our business. We are not involved currently in legal proceedings that could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on our business, prospects, financial condition or results of operations. We may become involved in material legal proceedings in the future.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS.

There have been no material changes to the risks to our business described in our Annual Report on Form-10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 15, 2010.

ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS.

During the three months ended March 31, 2010, the Company issued an aggregate of 142,381 shares for services rendered.

We believe that all of the above offerings and sales were deemed to be exempt under Rule 506 of Regulation D and Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. No advertising or general solicitation was employed in offering the securities. The offerings and sales were made to a limited number of persons, all of whom were accredited investors, business associates of the Company or executive officers of the Company, and transfer was restricted by the Company in accordance with the requirements of the Securities Act of 1933. In addition to representations by the above-referenced persons, we have made independent determinations that all of the above-referenced persons were accredited or sophisticated investors, and that they were capable of analyzing the merits and risks of their investment, and that they understood the speculative nature of their investment. Furthermore, all of the above-referenced persons were provided with access to our Securities and Exchange Commission filings.

ITEM 3. DEFAULTS UPON SENIOR SECURITIES.

As of the filing date of this report, the Company is currently in default in the payment of certain notes payable aggregating $1,000,000 and $268,000 (plus redemption penalties and accrued interest) which became due in March and June 2009, respectively, and accounts payable and accrued liabilities of approximately $2.9 million are also due. Unless the Company is able to obtain additional capital or other financing within the next 60 to 90 days, or sooner, its creditors may sue to collect on their notes and accounts. In such event, the Company may be required to seek protection from its creditors under the Federal Bankruptcy Act. Although the Company is actively pursuing such financing, there is no assurance that it will be obtained on commercially reasonable terms, if at all. Even if such financing is obtainable, it may be expected that the terms thereof will significantly dilute the equity interests of existing stockholders of the Company.
