Certain statements contained in this Annual Report on Form 10-K constitute “forward-looking statements”. These statements, identified by words such as “plan,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “should,” “expect” and similar expressions include our expectations and objectives regarding our future financial position, operating results and business strategy. These statements reflect the current views of management with respect to future events and are subject to risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause our actual results, performance or achievements, or industry results, to be materially different from those described in the forward-looking statements. Such risks and uncertainties include those set forth under the caption “Management’s Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation” and elsewhere in this Form 10-K. We do not intend to update the forward-looking information to reflect actual results or changes in the factors affecting such forward-looking information. We advise you to carefully review the reports and documents we file from time to time with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), particularly our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and our Current Reports on Form 8-K.

As used in this Annual Report, the terms “we,” “us,” “our,” the “Company,” and “MRT” mean Modern Renewable Technologies, Inc. and its subsidiaries, unless otherwise indicated. All dollar amounts in this Annual Report are expressed in U.S. dollars unless otherwise indicated.


Overview

We were incorporated on April 5, 2002 under the laws of the State of Nevada as “Aztek Ventures Inc.” Effective November 13, 2007, we filed a Certificate of Amendment to our Articles of Incorporation to change our name from “Aztek Ventures Inc.” to “Genesis Uranium Corp.” Effective April 21, 2008, we amended our Articles of Incorporation to change our name from “Genesis Uranium Corp.” to “Vault Technology Inc.” to reflect the change in our business focus beyond solely that of uranium exploration. Effective July 10, 2009, we filed a Certificate of Amendment to our Articles of Incorporation to change our name from “Vault Technology, Inc.” to “Modern Renewable Technologies, Inc.. As a result, our OTC Bulletin Board symbol became “MRNZ” as of September 17, 2009.

Modern Renewable Technologies, Inc. is a company currently seeking opportunities in the green building products industry.

On July 10, 2009 we signed a renewed non-binding Memorandum of Understanding to enter into an exclusive licensing and distribution agreement with EcoBlu Products, Inc. to distribute their Ecoblu line of green building products in the Caribbean, Central and South American markets. While we have since decided against moving forward with EcoBlu Products, we intend to continue to pursue potential business opportunities in this growing sector. There is a steady stream of new ideas, products and technologies in the green building products industry in which Modern Renewable Technologies would like to partake in. We will continue to focus on the green building products industry.

We intend to target green building product manufactures that have innovative green building products which will be first to market. We hope to avoid the competitive green building products that are dominated by our competition.  Our positioning strategy is first to come to an agreement with an innovative product new to market which will capture an audience keen on environmentally responsible energy efficient building. In order to obtain exclusivity, we hope to obtain the sole contractual rights to distribute a line of green building products.
 
This past fiscal year we were unable to secure new opportunities in the green building products sector. We continue to be optimistic about the green building products space and will continue to focus our efforts on securing new opportunities in the sector. We have not generated any revenues to date. We are strictly a service-oriented company, with no bricks-and-mortar features other than the corporate office.

Because the Company is still developing its current strategy, the Company’s operating expenses will largely consist of professional fees. For the fiscal year 2010, we anticipate there will be no revenue generated and therefore the Company will operate at a loss. If the Company is able to become a distributor of green building products, funding will be necessary to fulfill any contractual obligations we may enter into.

Dividend Policy

Modern Renewable Technologies has neither declared nor paid any cash dividends on our capital stock and do not anticipate paying cash dividends in the foreseeable future. Our current policy is to retain any earnings, if any, in order to finance the expansion of our operations. Our board of directors will determine future declaration and payments of dividends, if any, in light of the then-current conditions they deem relevant and in accordance with applicable corporate law.

There are no restrictions in our Articles of Incorporation or in our Bylaws which prevent us from declaring dividends. The Nevada Revised Statutes, however, do prohibit us from declaring dividends where, after giving effect to the distribution of a dividend: We would not be able to pay our debts as they become due in the usual course of business; or our total assets would be less than the sum of our total liabilities plus the amount that would be needed to satisfy the preferential rights of shareholders who have preferential rights superior to those receiving the distributions.

Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Forward-Looking Statements

The following information specifies certain forward-looking statements of management of the company. Forward-looking statements are statements that estimate the happening of future events and are not based on historical fact. Forward-looking statements may be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology, such as “may”, “shall”, “could”, “expect”, “estimate”, “anticipate”, “predict”, “probable”, “possible”, “should”, “continue”, or similar terms, variations of those terms or the negative of those terms. The forward-looking statements specified in the following information have been compiled by our management on the basis of assumptions made by management and considered by management to be reasonable. Our future operating results, however, are impossible to predict and no representation, guaranty, or warranty is to be inferred from those forward-looking statements.

The assumptions used for purposes of the forward-looking statements specified in the following information represent estimates of future events and are subject to uncertainty as to possible changes in economic, legislative, industry, and other circumstances. As a result, the identification and interpretation of data and other information and their use in developing and selecting assumptions from and among reasonable alternatives require the exercise of judgment. To the extent that the assumed events do not occur, the outcome may vary substantially from anticipated or projected results, and, accordingly, no opinion is expressed on the achievability of those forward-looking statements. We cannot guaranty that any of the assumptions relating to the forward-looking statements specified in the following information are accurate, and we assume no obligation to update any such forward-looking statements.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations section discusses our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. On an on-going basis, management evaluates its estimates and judgments, including those related to revenue recognition, accrued expenses, financing operations, and contingencies and litigation. Management bases its estimates and judgments on historical experience and on various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. The most significant accounting estimates inherent in the preparation of our financial statements include estimates as to the appropriate carrying value of certain assets and liabilities which are not readily apparent from other sources.

These accounting policies are described at relevant sections in this discussion and analysis and in the notes to the financial statements included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended August 31, 2010.
 
Plan of Operations

Modern Renewable Technologies, Inc. is a company currently seeking opportunities in the green building products industry.

On July 10, 2009 we signed a renewed non-binding Memorandum of Understanding to enter into an exclusive licensing and distribution agreement with EcoBlu Products, Inc. to distribute their Ecoblu line of green building products in the Caribbean, Central and South American markets. While we have since decided against moving forward with EcoBlu Products, we intend to continue to pursue potential business opportunities in this growing sector. There is a steady stream of new ideas, products and technologies in the green building products industry in which Modern Renewable Technologies would like to partake in. We will continue to focus on the green building products industry.

We intend to target green building product manufactures that have innovative green building products which will be first to market. We hope to avoid the competitive green building products that are dominated by our competition.  Our positioning strategy is first to come to an agreement with an innovative product new to market which will capture an audience keen on environmentally responsible energy efficient building. In order to obtain exclusivity, we hope to obtain the sole contractual rights to distribute a line of green building products.

This past fiscal year we were unable to secure new opportunities in the green building products sector. We continue to be optimistic about the green building products space and will continue to focus our efforts on securing new opportunities in the sector. We have not generated any revenues to date. We are strictly a service-oriented company, with no bricks-and-mortar features other than the corporate office.

Because the Company is still developing its current strategy, the Company’s operating expenses will largely consist of professional fees. For the fiscal year 2010, we anticipate there will be no revenue generated and therefore the Company will operate at a loss. If the Company is able to become a distributor of green building products, funding will be necessary to fulfill any contractual obligations we may enter into.

As at August 31, 2010, we had cash of no on hand. As such, we currently do not have sufficient financial resources to meet the anticipated costs of pursuing our new business focus, or the anticipated administrative costs of operating our business for the next twelve months. Our forecast for the period for which our financial resources will be adequate to support our operations involves risks and uncertainties and actual results could fail as a result of a number of factors. We intend to pursue capital through public or private financing and other sources, such as our officers, director and principal shareholders. We cannot guarantee that additional funding will be available on favorable terms, if at all. If adequate funds are not available, we hope that our officers, directors and principal shareholders will contribute funds to pay for our expenses to achieve our objectives over the next twelve months. However, we cannot guarantee that our officers, directors and principal shareholders will continue to contribute funds to pay for our expenses.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We have no off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to our stockholders.

Results of Operations

For the year ended August 31, 2010, as compared to the year ended August 31, 2009.

Revenues. We have not earned any revenues to date.

Operating Expenses and Net Loss. We are reporting a net loss of $118,405 for the year ended August 31, 2010 versus a net loss of $232,867 for the year ending August 31, 2009. The net loss decreased for the year ended August 31, 2010 versus the prior year due to a decrease in business activity.

We anticipate our accounting and legal expenses will  increase as a result of our ongoing reporting requirements under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

Liquidity and Financial Condition

During the year ending August 31, 2010 the Company’s cash position was unchanged, beginning and ending with no cash. Cash used in operating activities totaled $31,865; and cash provided by financing activities for the period was $31,865: $26,758 from shareholder loans and $5,107 from other parties.

As of August 31, 2010, we had cash of no on hand. Since our inception, we have used our common stock and loans to raise money for our operations and for our property acquisitions. We have not generated any revenues to date and are dependent upon obtaining financing to pursue our plan of operation.

We have continued to experience difficulties in raising capital. We believe our inability to raise significant additional capital through equity or debt financings is due to various factors.  As a result, we have funded our operations through loans from our current President. As of August 31, 2010, we owe a total of $337,726. Most of these loans have a term of one year, bear interest of 10% and are unsecured. During the year ended August 31, 2010, we borrowed $26,758 from related parties. We anticipate spending approximately $250,000 over the next twelve months in pursuing our plan of operation. We have a working capital deficit of $562,082 and we have not earned any revenues to date and do not anticipate earning revenues until we have completed commercial development of our anticipated products. Accordingly, we will require substantial additional financing in order to fund our plan of operation. We anticipate that any additional financing will likely be in the form of equity financing as substantial debt financing will likely not be as available at this stage of our business.

During 2010, we incurred significant professional costs associated with the audit of our financial statements and our reporting requirements. We expect that the legal and accounting costs of being a public company will continue to impact our liquidity and we may need to obtain funds to pay those expenses. Other than the anticipated increases in legal and accounting costs due to the reporting requirements of being a public company, we are not aware of any other known trends, events or uncertainties, which may affect our future liquidity.

We are unable to predict the duration, extent or trends related to the current credit and capital markets. We do expect to continue to experience difficulty financing our short term cash requirements as a result of these struggling markets and the U.S. Economy in general. Also, we may not be able to get terms favorable to the company or the existing shareholders if we are able to secure additional financing.

A critical component of our operating plan impacting our continued existence is the ability to obtain additional capital through additional equity and/or debt financing. We do not anticipate enough positive internal operating cash flow until such time as we can generate substantial revenues from business activities, which may take the next few years to realize.

Our near term cash requirements are anticipated to be offset through the receipt of funds from private placement offerings and loans obtained through private sources. Since inception, we have predominantly financed cash flow requirements through the issuance of common stock for cash.

Over the next twelve months we believe that existing capital and funds from intended operations will not be sufficient to sustain operations and planned development of those intended operations. Consequently, we will be required to seek additional capital in the future to fund growth through additional equity or debt financing or credit facilities. No assurance can be made that such financing would be available, and if available it may take either the form of debt or equity. In either case, the financing could have a negative impact on our financial condition and our Stockholders.

We may continue to incur operating losses over the next twelve months. Our operating history makes predictions of future operating results difficult to ascertain. Our prospects must be considered in light of the risks, expenses and difficulties frequently encountered by companies in their early stages of development. Such risks include, but are not limited to, an evolving and unpredictable business model and the management of growth. To address these risks we must, among other things, obtain a customer base, implement and successfully execute our business and marketing strategy, continue to develop and upgrade technology and products, respond to competitive developments, and attract, retain and motivate qualified personnel. There can be no assurance that we will be successful in addressing such risks, and the failure to do so can have a material adverse effect on our business prospects, financial condition and results of operations.

Going Concern

Our continuation as a going concern is dependent upon obtaining the additional working capital necessary to sustain our operations. The future of the Company is dependent upon its ability to obtain financing and upon future profitable operations. Management plans to seek additional financing through the sale of its common stock through private placements. There is no assurance that the Company’s current operations will be profitable or the Company will raise sufficient funds to continue operating. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded assets, or the amounts of and classification of liabilities that might be necessary in the event the Company cannot continue in existence.

Certain Relationships and Related Transactions

Related Parties

As of  August 31, 2010, a total of $337,726 (2009 $332,619). All of these loans have a term of one year, bear interest of 10% and are unsecured.  As at the date of completion of these audited financial statements, all of these loans are in default.

REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of
Modern Renewable Technologies Inc.
Rockville, Maryland

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Modern Renewable Technologies Inc. as of August 31, 2010 and 2009 and the related statement of expenses, stockholders’ deficit, and cash flows for the years then ended, and for the period from April 5, 2002 (inception) to August 31, 2010.  These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management.  Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States).  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurances about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatements.  The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting.  Our audit included consideration over of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.  Accordingly, we express no such opinion.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts of disclosures in the consolidated financial statements.  An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall consolidated financial statements presentation.  We believe our audits provide a reasonable basis for my opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Modern Renewable Technologies Inc, as of August 31, 2010 and 2009 and the results of its operations and its cash flow for years then ended, and for the period from April 5, 2002 (inception) to August 31, 2010 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

The accompanying financial statements referred to above have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern.  As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, the Company’s has incurred losses since inception and has a working capital deficit. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.  Management’s plans in regard to this matter are also described in Note 1.  The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

MODERN RENEWABLE TECHNOLOGIES, INC.
(FORMERLY VAULT TECHNOLOGY, INC.)
(A Development Stage Company)
NOTES TO  CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


 
NOTE 1 -NATURE AND CONTINUANCE OF OPERATIONS

Aztek Ventures Inc. was incorporated in Nevada on April 5, 2002.  Aztek changed its name on November 13, 2007 to Genesis Uranium Corp. and Genesis changed its name to Vault Technology Inc. on April 21, 2008.  On July 31, 2009 Vault changed its name to Modern Renewable Technologies, Inc. Modern Renewable Technologies is a Development Stage Company as defined by Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 7. Modern Renewable Technologies  has been in the development stage since its formation and has not yet realized any revenues from its planned operations

Going Concern

These consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis. Modern Renewable Technologies has incurred losses since inception and has a working capital deficit, which raises substantial doubt about Modern Renewable Technologies ability to continue as a going concern. Its ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the ability of Modern Renewable Technology to generate profitable operations in the future and/or to obtain the necessary financing to meet its obligations and repay its liabilities arising from normal business operations when they come due.  Management has plans to seek additional capital through a private placement and public offering of its common stock.  The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded assets, or the amounts of and classification of liabilities that might be necessary in the event the Company cannot continue in existence.

 
NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The consolidated financial statements of Modern Renewable Technologies  have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America.  Because a precise determination of many assets and liabilities is dependent upon future events, the preparation of consolidated financial statements for a period necessarily involves the use of estimates which have been made using careful judgment.  Actual results may vary from these estimates.

The consolidated financial statements have, in management’s opinion, been properly prepared within reasonable limits of materiality and within the framework of the significant accounting policies summarized below:

Debt Forgiveness Income

On October 9, 2008 modern Renewable Technologies and its fully owned subsidiaries executed a Release and Settlement Agreement with Caelum Finance Ltd to terminate all existing relationships and settle all outstanding debts. Under the Terms of this Agreement, all rights, title and interest in the Wollaston Lake Property were agreed to be transferred to Caelum as full and complete consideration of all obligations under the loan agreement with Caelum and to include all other outstanding debts. As a result of this agreement Modern Renewable Technologies has been pursuing opportunities other than mining. The property had a carrying basis of $0 for our financial statements prior to the disposition. Upon executing the Agreement, a 3.9% shareholder of Vault, affiliated with Caelum, agreed to deliver his entire share ownership of our common stock, which consisted of 2,250,000 shares, or approximately 3.9% of our issued and outstanding common stock to Vault which has been accounted for as returned and cancelled. The former shareholder also waived any claims under any loan or note made by us and the Vault Entities. The Loan in the amount of $361,649 and associated interest in the amount of $25,526 were forgiven resulting in debt forgiveness income in the amount of $387,175 due to the assets having a carrying value of $0. During the quarter ended February 28,2009 the Company also recognized an additional debt forgiveness income of $12,175 also pursuant to the Release and Settlement Agreement which resulted to the former shareholder agreeing to waive his right to loans made to the Company.
 
Acquisition, Exploration and Evaluation Expenditures
 
Modern Renewable Technologies is a development stage  company and has not yet realized any revenue from its operations. The company is currently seeking opportunities in the green building products industry.

Use of Estimates and Assumptions

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with United States generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
 
Foreign Currency Translation
 
Modern Renewable Technology’s functional currency is the U.S. dollar and its reporting currency is the U.S. dollar. The financial statements are translated to United States dollars in accordance with ASC 830 “Foreign Currency Translation”. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated using the exchange rate prevailing at the balance sheet date. Gains and losses arising on translation or settlement of foreign currency denominated transactions or balances are included in the determination of income.
 
Financial Instruments
 
The carrying value of cash, due to shareholder and accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximates their fair value because of the short maturity of these instruments. Modern Renewable Technology’s financial risk is the risk that arises from fluctuations in foreign exchange rates and the degree of volatility of these rates.
 
Environmental Costs
 
Environmental expenditures that relate to current operations are charged to operations or capitalized as appropriate. Expenditures that relate to an existing condition caused by past operations, and which do not contribute to current or future revenue generation, are charged to operations. Liabilities are recorded when environmental assessments and/or remedial efforts are probable, and the cost can be reasonably estimated. Generally, the timing of these accruals coincides with the earlier of completion of a feasibility study or Modern Renewable Technology’s commitments to plan of action based on the then known facts.
 
Income Taxes

Modern Renewable Technology  uses the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes in accordance with ASC 740 – “Accounting for Income Taxes”.  This standard requires the use of an asset and liability approach for financial accounting and reporting on income taxes.  If it is more likely than not that some portion or all of a deferred tax asset will not be realized, a valuation allowance is recognized.
 
Basic and Diluted Net Loss per Share
 
Modern Renewable Technology reports basic loss per share in accordance with ASC 260 – “Earnings Per Share”.  Basic loss per share is computed using the weighted average number of common stock outstanding during the period.  Diluted loss per share is computed using the weighted average number of common and potentially dilutive common stock outstanding during the period.  At August 31, 2009 and 2010, Modern Renewable Technology has no common stock equivalents that were anti-dilutive and excluded in the earnings per share computation.

NOTE 3 - FINANCE CONTRACTS

On June 25, 2007, Modern Renewable Technologies borrowed $208,294 (CDN $220,000) from Caelum Finance of Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. This loan was subject to interest at 8% per annum and was repayable on December 25, 2007.  On August 22, 2008 the agreement was amended and wasfully secured by the Wollaston Lake Property.

On August 9, 2007, Modern Renewable Technologies borrowed an additional $37,857 (CDN $39,985) from Caelum Finance Ltd, also subject to interest at 8% per annum.

On March 10, 2008, Modern Renewable Technologies borrowed an additional $62,920 in Canadian Dollars from Caelum finance Ltd. also subject to interest at 8% per annum.

All of these contracts were extinguished as a result of the Settlement identified in note 2

 
16

 

NOTE 4 – OTHER LOANS

As of  August 31, 2010, a total of $337,726 (2009 $332,619). All of these loans have a term of one year, bear interest of 10% and are unsecured.  As at the date of completion of these audited financial statements, all of these loans are in default. The promissory notes indicated that  a late penalty of 18% per annum would be assessed if the loans were in default. The Company has not received any notification concerning the default on these loans and therefore did not consider it necessary to make a provision for late penalties.

NOTE 5 – SHAREHOLDER LOANS

These loans from the current President, Treasurer, Company Secretary and Principal Financial Officer are not subject to interest or any specific terms of repayment. The balance on these loans as at August 31, 2010 was $102,052 ( 2009 $75,294)

NOTE 6 - SHARE CAPITAL

During the quarter ended November 30, 2009, 321 shares were recorded as issued at $0.22 each in respect of services provided to the Company.

On August 12, 2010 the Company authorised a reverse stock split of 1 share for every 100 shares of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares. This change has been recorded retroactively, on the financial statements.

NOTE 7 - INCOME TAXES

Since inception, Modern Renewable Technology has incurred net losses and therefore has no tax liability.  The net deferred tax asset generated by the loss carry-forward has been fully reserved.  The cumulative net operating loss carry-forward is $1,168,976 , as follows:

a)
Income tax provision (U.S.)

Potential benefits of income tax losses are not recognized in the accounts until realization is more likely than not.  Pursuant to ASC 740, Genesis is required to compute tax asset benefits for net operating losses carried forward.  Potential benefit of net operating losses have not been recognized in these financial statements because Genesis cannot be assured that it is more likely than not it will utilize the net operating losses carried forward in future years.

The provision for income taxes differs from the result which would be obtained by applying the statutory income tax rate of 34% to income before income taxes. The difference results from the following items:

   
2010
   
2009
 
             
Computed expected (benefit of) income taxes
  $ (258,442 )   $ ( 218,184 )
                 
Valuation allowance
    258,442       218,184  
                 
Income tax provision
  $ -     $ -  

At August 31, 2010, MRT has net operating losses of $760,000 which may be carried forward to apply against future years’ income for tax purposes for twenty years from when incurred.

NOTE 8 – PRIOR YEAR REVISIONS

For the year ended August 31, 2010 an adjustment has been made related to the accounts payable of the prior year in  the amount of $15,000 for legal fees which should have not been accrued for as of August 31, 2009. Management has deemed this not material to the results of the prior year and has elected not to revise the prior year financial statements.

As a result of this misstatement the General and administrative expenses were overstated by $15,000 and the loss for the year and the accumulated deficit were similarly overstated. The comparative figures for the prior year have been restated to reflect this adjustment.

NOTE 9 - SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

On September 17, 2010, the Company signed a Promissory Note with JPF Securities Law, LLC (“JPF”), stating that the Company promised to pay to the order of JPF the sum of $7,500 with an interest rate of 10% per annum, payable on September 14, 2011.

Changes In and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting/Financial Disclosure

There have been no disagreements between the Company and its independent accountants on any matter of accounting principles or practices or financial statement disclosure.

Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosures and Procedures

We carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) as of August 31, 2010. This evaluation was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer. Based upon that evaluation, our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer concluded that, as of August 31, 2010, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective due to the identification of a material weakness noted below.

Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act are recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, including our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

A control system, no matter how well conceived or operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met.

Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting for our company. Our control system is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

Our internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and disposition of our assets; provide reasonable assurance that the transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles; that receipts and expenditures are being made only with proper authorizations of management and directors; and provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of company assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

All internal control systems, no matter how well designed, have inherent limitations. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation. Because of the inherent limitations of internal control, there is a risk that material misstatements may not be prevented or detected on a timely basis by internal control over financial reporting. However, these inherent limitations are known features of the financial reporting process. Therefore, it is possible to design into the process safeguards to reduce, though not eliminate, this risk. Because of inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Our President assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of August 31, 2010. In making this assessment, management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting – Guidance for Smaller Public Companies published in June of 2006 and the PCAOB preliminary staff views published October 17, 2007. Based on our assessment and those criteria, management concluded that during the period covered by this report, our internal control and procedures over financial reporting was not effective as of August 31, 2010 because there is a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of control deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the Company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

The material weakness relates to the lack of segregation of duties in financial reporting, as our financial reporting and all accounting functions are performed by an external consultant. and our company does not have an audit committee. This weakness is due to the company’s lack of working capital to hire additional staff. To remedy this material weakness, we intend to engage another accountant to assist with financial reporting as soon as our finances will allow.

Attestation Report of the Registered Public Accounting Firm

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

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

During the period covered by this report, there was no significant change in our internal controls over financial reporting or in other factors that materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.

Nick Arroyo was appointed as our President, Chief Executive Officer and as a director on August 23, 2008. Mr. Arroyo is an entrepreneurial senior executive with over 27 years experience encompassing, Audit, Finance, Accounting, Budgeting, Strategic Planning, International Operations, Contract Negotiations, Buying, Marketing and Executive Management and Leadership Positions. Mr. Arroyo started his career in the US Air Force where he was an Accounting and Finance Officer and later became an auditor for Arthur Andersen & Company. Mr. Arroyo spent the next 20 years in the telecommunications industry where he held senior management positions in business development, international services, procurement, operations, and leadership positions.

Prior to joining us, Mr. Arroyo was the President for Convergen Media Group. Inc., a provider of digital media, communications, security, home automation and control technologies. From 2005 to 2006 Mr. Arroyo was Vice President of Global Operations for VoIP Inc., a leading provider of voice over IP services. From 1987 to 1995, Mr. Arroyo worked at Verizon Communications Inc. (f/n/a GTE) where he held various positions including accounting manager, assistant controller, budget and strategic planning manager and controller.

Mr. Arroyo holds a BS in Accounting and Finance from the Inter-American University in San Juan, Puerto Rico which he earned in 1981. Mr. Arroyo is not an officer or director of any other U.S. reporting company. Mr. Arroyo is not expected to receive any compensation from the Registrant for his service as a director. On December 18, 2009, a shareholder meeting was called and Randy White was voted to succeed Nick Arroyo as President and Principal Executive Officer. 

Randy White had been our Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, President, Secretary, Treasurer and a member of our Board of Directors since December 13, 2007. On August 23, 2008, Mr. White resigned as our Chief Executive Officer and President, though he retains his other positions of Chief Financial Officer, Secretary, Treasurer, and Director. On December 18, 2009 he was voted to replace Nick Arroyo as President and Principal Executive Officer. Mr. White is also currently the President of Stratus Investments Group, a private investment enterprise he founded in 1999 and Tatra Resources Ltd., a natural resources exploration company he founded in 2009. Mr. White has successfully managed an array of business activities including real-estate investment, corporate finance and consulting for both private and public resource companies.

Terms of Office

Our directors are elected to hold office until the next annual meeting of the shareholders and until their respective successors have been elected and qualified. Our executive officers are appointed by our board of directors and hold office until removed by our board of directors or until their successors are appointed.

Committees of the Board of Directors

Our audit committee presently consists of our entire board of directors. We do not have a compensation committee, nominating committee, an executive committee of our board of directors, stock plan committee or any other committee. However, our board of directors may establish various committees during the current fiscal year.

Audit Committee Financial Expert

Our board of directors has determined that none of the audit committee members can be classified as an “audit committee financial expert” as defined in Item 401(e) of Regulation S-K. Our board of directors does not contain a member that can be classified as an “audit committee financial expert” under the referenced definition. Our board of directors believes that attracting and retaining board members that could be classified as an “audit committee financial expert” is unlikely at this time due to the high cost of such director candidates.
Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance

Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 requires the company’s directors and officers, and persons who own more than ten-percent (10%) of the company’s common stock, to file with the Securities and Exchange Commission reports of ownership on Form 3 and reports of change in ownership on Forms 4 and 5. Such officers, directors and ten-percent stockholders are also required to furnish the company with copies of all Section 16(a) reports they file. Based solely on its review of the copies of such forms received by the company and on written representations from certain reporting persons, the company believes that all Section 16(a) reports applicable to its officers, directors and ten-percent stockholders with respect to the fiscal year ended August 31, 2010 were filed.

Code of Ethics

We adopted a Code of Ethics applicable to our officers and directors which is a “code of ethics” as defined by applicable rules of the SEC. Our code of ethics is attached as an exhibit to this Annual Report. If we make any amendments to our Code of Ethics other than technical, administrative, or other non-substantive amendments, or grant any waivers, including implicit waivers, from a provision of our Code of Ethics to our President, Treasurer, or certain other finance executives, we will disclose the nature of the amendment or waiver, its effective date and to whom it applies in a current report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC.

On August 25, 2008, Nick Arroyo was appointed as our President, Chief Executive Officer and as a director. We anticipate entering into a compensation agreement with Mr. Arroyo, the terms of which will be disclosed when available, pursuant to which Mr. Arroyo is expected to receive a stock-based compensation.

During the last quarter of the fiscal year ended August 31, 2009, we borrowed funds from a company related to our former President Nick Arroyo. As of August 31, 2009, we additionally borrowed a total of $89,143 from shareholders. These loans are unsecured, not subject to interest and payable upon demand.

On October 9, 2008, we executed a Release and Settlement Agreement with Tekaz Mining Corp., a British Columbia corporation, 101117559 Saskatchewan Ltd., a Saskatchewan corporation (collectively the “MRT Entities”) and Caelum Finance Ltd., a British Columbia corporation and Curt White, an individual, (collectively the “Caelum Parties”), formerly one of our officers, one of our directors and a shareholder. The Agreement serves to terminate all existing relationships and settle all outstanding debts between the MRT Entities and the Caelum Parties. These included the loan agreement dated June 25, 2007, and an amendment which provided that the principal be secured by collateral in the form of the Wollaston East Claims MPP 1253 and MPP 1255. During last quarter of the fiscal year ended August 31, 2009, we borrowed additional funds from Caelum Finance Ltd. These loans are unsecured, not subject to interest and payable upon demand.

In exchange for entering into this settlement agreement, the MRT Entities agreed to transfer all rights, title and interest to the Wollaston East Claims MPP 1253 and MPP 1255 to Caelum Finance Ltd., as full and complete consideration of all of the obligations between the all parties and as payment in full. In return, and on behalf of the Caelum Parties, Caelum Finance Ltd. agreed to waive its claims under any loan or note made by us and the MRT Entities, and specifically agreed that properties represent payment in full for the loan as amended, in the amount of CDN$220,000. Upon executing the Agreement, Curt White agreed to deliver his entire share ownership of our common stock, which consisted of 2,250,000 shares (pre split), or approximately 3.9% of our issued and outstanding common stock. Curt White also waived any claims under any loan or note made by us and the MRT Entities.

Director Independence

Quotations for our common stock are entered on the OTC Bulletin Board inter-dealer quotation system, which does not have director independence requirements. For purposes of determining director independence, we have applied the definitions set out in NASDAQ Rule 4200(a)(15). Under NASDAQ Rule 4200(a)(15), a director is not considered to be independent if he or she is also an executive officer or employee of the corporation. Mr. Randy White acts as our executive officers and directors. As such, we do not have any independent directors.
