MIZATI LUXURY ALLOY WHEELS, INC.

Explanatory Note

This Amendment No. 1 (this “Amendment”) to the Annual Report on Form 10-K (the “Original Filing”) of Mizati Luxury Alloy Wheels, Inc. (“we, “us,” “our” or the “Company”) for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on April 15, 2010, is being filed for the purpose of correcting an administrative error in data transfer of the statement of cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2010 for the Original Filing.  Particularly, the balance of “proceeds received from notes and advance from related parties” under cash flows from financing activities should be $40,180 rather than $180 as originally reported.

Except as described above, the Original Filing has not been amended, updated, or otherwise modified.  The Original Filing, as amended by this Amendment, continues to speak as of the date of the Original Filing and does not reflect events occurring after the filing of the Original Filing or update or otherwise modify any related or other disclosures, including forward-looking statements.  Accordingly, this Amendment should be read in conjunction with our other filings made with the SEC subsequent to the filing of the Original Filing.  In addition, pursuant to the rules of the SEC, Item 15 of Part IV of the original filing has been amended to contain currently dated certifications from the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as required by Sections 302 and 906 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002.  The certifications of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer are attached to this Form 10-K/A as Exhibits 31.1 and 32.1, respectively.
 
PART I

ITEM 1.  Business

Mizati Luxury Alloy Wheels, Inc. (“Mizati”, “we”, “us”, “our”, the "Company" or the "Registrant") was incorporated in the State of California in January 2001. We are a designer, importer, and wholesaler of custom alloy wheels for cars, SUV’s and light pickups.
 
Overview

The Company operates in the wheels, tires, and suspension segment of the specialty automotive equipment market.  The Company’s mission is to become a well-known brand to provide wheels, rims, and automotive accessories in the United States within the next three to five years, while also penetrating into international markets.  Mizati used to works with four factories out of China that supply all of the raw materials as well as the finished product.  These factories are Nanjing Huashun Co. Ltd, Jiangsu Kaite Auto Parts Co. Ltd, Max Fung Trading Co., and Jiangsu Dare World Light Alloy Co. Ltd.  Starting from year 2010, the Company only worked with Max Fung Trading Co. for inventory purchase.

To achieve our mission, we have been consistently involved in discussions with several reputable wheel manufacturers in China, including one of the largest to potentially be our R&D and production affiliate starting 2010.  With the setup for stable OEM/ODM supplies, we hope to expand our network, which we do not currently have arrangements to do so, with China, the Pacific Rim and Europe in design trends as well as enhanced production capacity.  As in all business discussions, we may and we may not be able to reach any agreement with any of the wheel manufacturer.  Currently, we will not be able to solicit new business to auto manufacturers due to the following 2 main reasons.  First, auto manufacturers might not consider working with us before we are traded at the OTCBB; and secondly, we do not have the proper funding to venture into this direction.  If the above both conditions improve, we are hoping in one to two years timeframe to land an auto manufacturer business.

In order to fund these plans, we are searching new investors through various channels, and will consider private placements or public offerings.  In the past two years, management has identified potential merger and acquisition targets or joint venture partners from our customers, potential suppliers and other parties located in the United States and China in the size of total revenue between $10 and $20 million, who are willing to participate as a public company and develop more business with group efforts.  However, our current obstacle of the shortage in available capital has been deferring these plans.  In addition to items discussed in the “Liquidity and Capital Resources” section in Item 2. Management Discussion and Analysis of this filing, in order to increase our source of income and to support the Company’s capital needs before the above expansion plans could be realized, management will also consider entering into the OEM business by negotiating with global automotive manufacturers to be our new customers, and take OEM orders from them to be manufactured through the factories we are working with.  There is no guarantee that we will receive enough orders from those new customers to satisfy our capital needs in the near term.

The Specialty Equipment market is best defined by what it allows consumers to do—to customize and personalize their vehicles with custom parts and accessories.  Not to be confused with the automotive aftermarket which encompasses repair and replacement parts, automotive specialty-equipment products are purchased out of choice rather than necessity.  According to a Specialty Equipment Marketing Association (SEMA) study, the wheels, tires, and suspension segment of this market has grown at annual rate of approximately 8% over the last decade with annual sales of $11 billion in 2008.  In 2008, this segment composed 24% of the Specialty Equipment Market.  The custom wheel market is generally divided into five product categories; aluminum wheels, composite wheels, modular wheels, steel wheels and custom wheel accessories.  Information regarding the source can be found  www.sema.org.  This is available to SEMA members only on the SEMA website, www.sema.org.  As of   April 2011, SEMA has not provided further updates on market data for the year 2010.

For the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009 we generated revenues of $241,248 and $601,618, respectively, which comprises approximately 100% of wheels and wheel caps, and had a net loss of ($440,097) and ($928,668), respectively.  With the economic recession, we have seen a substantial decrease in revenues and gross profit in our most recent fiscal year.

However, our auditor has raises substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.  Historically, the Company has incurred significant losses, and has not demonstrated the ability to generate sufficient cash flows from operations to satisfy its liabilities and sustain operations.  The Company had accumulated deficit of ($3,932,386) and ($3,492,289) as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, including net losses of ($440,097) and ($928,668) for the years then ended.  In addition, current liabilities exceeded current assets by $2,780,768 and $2,335,140 at December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.  These factors indicate that the Company may not be able to continue its business in the future.  The Company finances its operations by short-term and long-term bank borrowings with more reliance on the use of short-term borrowings as the corresponding borrowing costs are lower compared to long-term borrowings.  There can be no assurance that such borrowings will be available to the company in the future.  For more details, please refer to Note 2 “Going Concern” in our financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2010 herewith.

The wheel industry was historically founded on the basis of racing and performance products and was originally driven by street racing and hot rods.  Over time, the industry has shifted away from performance attributes and instead become more of an urban style-driven market and a discrete off-road market.

The Company’s products are targeted at four discrete categories of purchaser:

 
Ø
Light trucks: The light-truck market is that part of the industry that produces and sells the parts that change the appearance, performance and/or handling of light-trucks (pickups, vans, and sport utility vehicles). This niche is the largest of all in this segment.
 
Ø
Street performance:  The street performance market is focused on high performance modern cars such as the Ford Mustang ™ and the Chevrolet Corvette ™.
 
Ø
Restyling:  The restyling market involves the aftermarket addition of products, such as wheels, to new vehicles.
 
Ø
The “off road” market which is comprised of sport utility vehicles and larger off road trucks.

Target Market
 
The urban lifestyles market is generally comprised of enthusiasts who are trend-conscious and place a heavy emphasis on style.  This market can be impulse-buy oriented and its purchase decisions are influenced by radio, television programs, and popular publications.  In addition to this particular market, we also cater to car enthusiasts.  The general demographic of this market are males ranging from ages 18-35 and is all encompassing in terms of ethnic backgrounds.  We have noted a recent shift trending towards a greater number of purchases by females.

Products

We have three lines of wheel products for cars, trucks, and sport utility vehicles.  The lines are identified as the Mizati, Hero, and Zati product lines.

 
- 4 -

 

The Zati line is comprised of six products – the Fix, Blast Furious, Drift, Piper, Strength and Galan. The Hero line is comprised of ten products which are the Rebel, Rogue, Ronin, Saint, Sage, Savant, Salient, Seer, Maestro and Amore.  The Mizati line is comprised of sixteen products which are the Ace, Apollo, Double D, Klick, Lotus, Face Off, Fusion, Manza, I Candy, Illuminati, Stix, X ta C, Toro, Grand, Grande and Carlos.

Currently, the Company’s product pipeline is composed of one-piece alloy wheels ranging from 18” to 26” in diameter of various widths.  One-piece cast wheels are manufactured using a simple and rapid production process where the rim and the center is molded as one integral unit thereby eliminating the costs associated with an outside supplier of outer rims and reduced assembly and handling costs.

The majority of our wheels are chrome, but we do carry certain styles in black or silver.  In the wheel industry, sizing tends to dictate pricing.  For example, the larger the wheel, the greater the price, and the higher the profit margin.  Our wheels range anywhere from $120 for an 18” to $425 for a 26”.  However, we do provide volume discounts for bulk shipments to our distributors.

We continually assess industry trends, the marketplace and product positioning. The Company is committed to adding selected new product lines in order to build its customer loyalty into a broader based business. Mizati currently has three different product lines: Mizati, Hero, and Zati.  By manufacturing three separate lines, Mizati has improved its ability to retain larger accounts by offering exclusivity of a particular line to selected distributors.  Currently we do not have any exclusivity agreements with distributors.

As we develop new designs for 2010, we will focus on differentiating the product lines.  Mizati will be our high end line with designs in one piece molds, as well as off-road designs.  We hope to develop a smaller line to include 17” wheels.  Hero will be all chrome, one-piece wheels whose styles reflect current trends in the industry.  Zati line will be composed mainly of painted wheels which allow consumers to color match wheels to their vehicle.  We have our first 2010 new wheel design, “Carlos” under the Mizati line, arrived in our warehouse during end of March 2010 and has been selling to customers.

Sales Cycle

Our sales tend to be seasonal in nature based on a nine month sales cycle.  Industry sales usually ramp up in February and begin to slow down in October.  This is due in large part to the annual SEMA show in November where distributors are eager to see and place orders for next year’s lines.  In addition, increment weather in late fall and winter reduces demand for aftermarket wheels.  The introduction of new products coincides with the industry wide “nine month sales cycle”.

Distribution

We distribute our products through wheel and tire distributors both nationwide and internationally.  Through our distribution network, products are available for retail purchase at wheel stores as well as some of the major tire stores including Firestone, America’s Tire, Les Schwab Tire Center and Discount Tires.  Geographically, the largest markets for our products are Southern California, Texas and Florida.  Our five largest distributors are spread over the following regions: Texas, North Carolina, California, and Mexico.  We have established distribution of our products in several regions of the United States.

We currently have  650 distributors that sell our products.   Our top five distributors based on total sales for 2009 are Rent A Wheel: $138,573, ETI: $91,847, Coast to Coast: $49,491, L.A. Tire & Chrome: $29,026, and Pacific Tire: $27,666.  As a total percentage of 2009 sales, these top five distributors composed the following, respectively: 23%, 15%, 8%, 5%, and 5%.  Our top five distributors based on total sales for 2008 are ETI: $374,720,  Rent A Wheel: $232,611, Southern Wheel Distributors: $151,612, Performance Wheel Styles, $122,558, and Mobile Entertainment: $119,892.  As a total percentage of 2008 sales, these top five distributors composed the following, respectively: 15%, 10%, 6%, 5%, and 5%.  As we hope to have an outside sales force nationwide over the next couple years, we hope to be able to penetrate into new markets.  Currently due to the uncertainties in our economy, we do not have any outside sales force in place.  To accomplish these goals, we will place an aggressive sales commission program through increased commission percentage from the conventional 1% to 3%-5%.  The commission percentage will increase progressively based on dollar amount of sales.  The higher the dollar amount of sales, the higher the commission rate will be, although, there is no guarantee that we will have sufficient funds to launch those marketing efforts in the timeframe as set forth above.  Again, we may not be able to implement an “aggressive” commission system unless our customers are willing to pay more for our products to cover the cost.

 
- 5 -

 

Our revenue base is diversified in that no distributor makes up the majority of our revenues.  It is spread relatively evenly across our total distributor base.  This revenue mix ensures that the loss of a key account would not adversely impact our total revenue.

Manufacturing

We work with four separate manufacturing facilities in China which are located in Jiang Su and the Nanjin provinces.  Our four manufacturing partners are Nanjing Huashun Co. Ltd, Jiangsu Kaite Auto Parts Co. Ltd, Max Fung Trading Co., and Jiangsu Dare World Light Alloy Co. Ltd.  This allows for redundancy in the event that one manufacturer is unable to timely manufacture our products.   Orders are generally delivered to our warehouse within 45 days of order placement.  New wheel designs can take up to 75 days for shipment due to the time it takes for mold design.

We do not face the risk of limited supply with our raw input materials, but are subject to fluctuations in the price of materials.  In the past we have been able to negotiate terms with our manufactures that allow us to lock in a set price for the year.  In order to lock in prices, we have historically made volume commitments to our manufacturing partners.  In late 2007, China signed a memorandum rescinding a raft of tax breaks and subsidies.  As a result of this, along with higher raw material prices, our manufacturing partners in China did not allow us to lock in prices for 2008.  Accordingly, our production costs are subject to market fluctuations.  These trends do not affect us exclusively, but rather the industry as a whole.  We have established strong relationships with all of our manufacturing partners and expect these partnerships to continue for the long term.

Trademark/Brand Recognition

Brand identity is the key to success in the wheel industry.  We are a young company that has worked hard to develop a strong brand name through the introduction of high quality products, a robust product pipeline, strategic marketing campaigns, and solid relationships with distributors.  As we launch new marketing initiatives in fiscal year 2010, we hope to enhance our brand awareness by building a completely new website with lot of flash images, also with wheel visual capabilities features.  We also hope to build and grow our contact and networking on facebook, free posting for our customers’ vehicles with Mizati wheels on it.  We also hope to participate in local community  auto show and little league sport games by sponsoring them with sweaters with our logo on it.  Due to the low buying capabilities from our customers from the beginning of year 2010, it does not justify to launch any marketing plan to promote brand recognition.

Competitive Landscape

The Specialty Automotive Equipment market is highly fragmented with small private companies.  Notable private competitors include Giovanna Wheels ™, Asanti Wheels ™, and Lexani Wheels ™.  Competition in this market revolves around price, quality, reliability, styling, product features, and warranty.  Pricing of competitors products tends to be slightly higher than ours.  At the dealer level, competition is based mainly on sales and marketing support programs, such as financing and cooperative advertising.  Giovanna Wheels ™, Asanti Wheels ™, and Lexani Wheels ™ possess stronger financial capabilities, deeper distribution channels, and strong brand awareness which in turn provide formidable competition for a young company the size of Mizati which does not possess similar financial resources.

Industry Regulations/Standards:

Industry guidelines and regulations are established through Congress and monitored by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) under the umbrella of the Department of Transportation (DOT).  In response to the Firestone/Ford sport utility vehicle tire recalls, Congress enacted the Transportation, Recall Enhancement, Accountability, and Documentation (TREAD) Act, on November 1, 2000.  TREAD required the NHTSA to multiple rulemaking actions in a variety of areas including tire safety standards.  The DOT develops, promotes, and implements effective educational, engineering, and enforcement programs directed toward ending preventable tragedies and reducing safety-related economic costs associated with vehicle use and highway travel.  We are in compliance with DOT regulations regarding our wheels.

Governmental Operations

Our business is affected by numerous laws and regulations.  To ensure that our operations are conducted in full and substantial regulatory compliance, as part of our current internal procedures and policies, we verify and ensure that the manufacturing process of all our suppliers in China had obtained ISO 9000/9001 certification.  They had also passed the Quality Standard TS16949-2002 and Testing Standard USA SEA J2530 or Japan JWL (VIA).  Trade and product safety are governed by the DOT.  Upon placing orders with our manufacturing suppliers, we ensure that all our products are produced based on standards as set forth by the DOT of the U.S.

Failure to comply with any laws and regulations may result in the assessment of administrative, civil and criminal penalties, the imposition of injunctive relief or both. Moreover, changes in any of these laws and regulations could have a material adverse effect on business. In view of the many uncertainties with respect to current and future laws and regulations, including their applicability to us, we cannot predict the overall effect of such laws and regulations on our future operations.

We believe that our operations comply in all material respects with applicable laws and regulations, and that the existence and enforcement of such laws and regulations have no more restrictive an effect on our operations than on other similar companies in the automotive industry. We do not anticipate any material capital expenditures to comply with federal and state environmental requirements.

Research and Development

We do not have a budget specifically allocated for research and development purposes. Our research costs are minimal.  We initiate design ideas in-house among our creative team, select what we believe are the best ones, and collaborate with our design team in China to create a final sketch.  Our design team there works closely with our manufacturing partners to create a sample product.  After we approve a physical sample design, we move forward with production.  Because our in-house design team fits the demographic profile of our customers, we feel we have been able to create innovative wheel designs that both reflect current trends and fashions while still appealing to our target consumer’s desire for individuality.

Employees

As of December 31, 2010 we had three full time employees.

ITEM 3.  Legal Proceedings

On February 2, 2009, Spanish Broadcasting System Inc. aka Spanish Broadcasting Systems, Inc. dba KXOL adba KXOL Latino 96.3 FM (the “Plaintiff”), filed a complaint in the Los Angeles County Superior Court, Beverley Hills Courthouse for reasonable value, account stated, and open book account for commercial advertisement performed by KXOL, seeking damages of $12,200, with interest thereon at the rate of ten percent (10%) per annum from October 28, 2007.  The Company disputed Plaintiff’s entitlement to amounts claimed and instructed the Company’s legal counsel to contest the action, while concurrently pursuing opportunities for reasonable settlement.  On March 17, 2009, judgment was entered against the Company.  The Company settled the judgment for the principal amount of $12,000, with the Plaintiff waiving its claims for attorney’s fees, interest, and costs.  The Company’s former legal counsel had cleared such payment for the Company.  The $12,000 was recorded as other payable on the balance sheet as of December 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009, and “Marketing expense accrued for litigation settlement” on the statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2009.

On February 20, 2009, Dare Wheel Manufacturing Co., Ltd. (the “Plaintiff”), one of the Company’s major vendors in China, filed a complaint in the Los Angeles County Superior Court, Pomona Courthouse for open book account, account stated, and goods, wares and merchandise, seeking damages of $716,900, with interest thereon at the rate of ten percent (10%) per annum from March 10, 2008.  On April 15, 2009, defendant removed the state court action to the United States District Court for the Central District of California.  On December 14, 2009, the United States District Court for the Central District of California issued a dismissal without prejudice.  The dismissal without prejudice was granted by the court to allow the Plaintiff to proceed with the action in a proper forum.  It is highly uncertain regarding whether the plaintiff would choose to pursue this claim in another forum.  As of December 31, 2010 and 2009, the $716,900 was recorded in accounts payable owed to the Plaintiff as recorded on the balance sheet, and was already recorded in inventory cost which therefore did not impact the statement of operations for the year then ended.

On February 18, 2009, Mission BP, LLC (the “Plaintiff”) filed a complaint in the Los Angeles County Superior Court, Pomona Courthouse for unlawful detainer, for base rent of $25,725.70, additional rent of $4,027.14, holdover damages of $991.76 per day, and for attorneys’ fees and costs.  The Company disputed Plaintiff’s right to unlawful detainer on the grounds that it had billed for and collected additional rent in violation of the terms of the lease.  The case went to trial on March 25, 2009, at which time the Company entered into settlement with Plaintiff as follows:

 
1.
The Company stipulated to restitution of the premises to Plaintiff on or before April 3, 2009.
 
2.
The Company agreed to waive any rights to its security deposit of $56,463.70, and Plaintiff agreed to apply such security deposit to unpaid rent and holdover damages incurred by Plaintiff in the action.  The $56,463.70 security deposit forfeited was charged through rent expense for the year ended December 31, 2009 accordingly.
 
3.
The parties agreed that the settlement was without prejudice to other claims either party may have relating to the tenancy.
 
The settlement was a favorable resolution for the Company as it allowed it to apply its security deposit to rent due, and to relocate and replace an above-market lease with a substantially more economical lease.

On June 3, 2009, Mission BP, LLC (the “Plaintiff”) filed a complaint in the Los Angeles County Superior Court, Pomona Courthouse for alleged damage for breach of lease in the amount of $41,038, and for attorney’s fees and costs according to proof.  This case is subject to a conditional settlement that calls for a dismissal of the case no later than May 15, 2012.  The total value of the settlement is $29,000.  An initial payment of $2,000 is due on February 28, 2010.  The settlement calls for the remainder to be paid in increments of no less than $1,000 due at the end of each month for twenty-three (23) consecutive months, starting on March 31, 2010 and concluding February 28, 2012.  Additionally, there is a $4,000 balloon payment due March 31, 2012 upon the conclusion of payments on February 28, 2012.  This balloon payment will be discounted if the final payment is made prior to February 28, 2011.  The discount shall be $200 for number of months between the early final payment date and the date of February 2012 and the adjusted payment shall be paid the month following the actual final payment date.  In the event of default on a payment by more than 3 days, the Company shall be liable for $41,038 less previous payments and subject to the maximum rate of interest allowed by law.  Currently we are in compliance with the payment arrangements.  Our first payment of $2,000 was made on February 16, 2010 before it was due on February 28, 2010.  We paid $1,000 each month during the year 2010.  The initial $29,000 was recorded as “Rent expense accrued for litigation settlement” on the statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2009, and other payable on the balance sheet as of December 31, 2009, with $12,000 due within one year recorded under current liabilities and $17,000 due over one year recorded under long-term liabilities.  As of December 31, 2010, $12,000 due within one year was recorded in Other Payable under current liabilities and $5,000 due over one year was recorded under long-term liabilities.

Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities; Use of Proceeds from Registered Securities

Since March 1, 2006, Hazel Chu, our Chief Executive Officer of Mizati has had an oral employment contract with the Company which provided for a salary of up to $240,000 per year. Based on the financial condition of the Company, Ms. Chu agrees to receive smaller portion of the salary; therefore, Ms. Chu was paid $500 and $9,800 in 2010 and 2009, respectively, with $230,980 and $110,200 recorded as accrued expense as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.  Ms. Chu will continue to adjust her annual salary based on the Company’s operation results without harming its cash flows.

On January 13, 2006, January 18, 2006, and January 18, 2008, Company’s President and Chief Executive Officer loaned the Company $300,000, $123,300, $60,000, respectively, in exchange for promissory notes for a period of ten (10) years, bearing interest at various floating interest rates from 0% to 10% per annum.  The Company recorded interest expense of $14,948 on these notes for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.  The total unpaid principal balance was $382,601 as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.  In 2010, the Company borrowed additional $40,180 from the Company’s President and Chief Executive Officer with no written agreement, bearing no interest, and no specific due date.  The total unpaid principal balance was $100,000 as of December 31, 2010.

In February 2009, the Company entered into a service agreement verbally with two individuals for designing twelve to sixteen sets of new wheels prior to August 2009, from which the Company will select four final sets for molding, although molding is not included in the service for this time.  Compensation for such designing service was agreed at $96,000 in total which shall be paid in the Company’s common shares upon entering into the agreement.  Those two individuals are also shareholders of the Company, each of which owned 0.00056% and 0.00053% of the Company’s common shares, respectively prior to such agreement.  On February 11, 2009, the Company issued a total of 120,000 common shares (or 4,800,000 common shares prior to the reverse stock-split on June 11, 2010), with one received 62,500 shares (or 2,500,000 shares prior to the reverse stock-split on June 11, 2010) and the other received 57,500 shares (or 2,300,000 shares prior to the reverse stock-split on June 11, 2010), at $0.80 per share (or $0.02 per share prior to the reverse stock-split on June 11, 2010), the fair market value on the date of issuance (the measurement date), or a total value of $96,000 upon entering into the agreement.  Although there were no sufficiently large disincentives for nonperformance as set forth in the agreement, the equity award granted to the two individuals performing the services was fully vested and nonforfeitable on the date the parties entered into the contract. Immediately after the share issuances, the two individuals owned 2.90% and 2.67% of the Company’s common shares, respectively.  The $96,000 was initially recorded as prepaid expense and the total amount was fully amortized during the year ended December 31, 2009 upon completion of the wheel designs.

On July 09, 2008, 621,185 shares were issued to Ms. Chu at $0.00016 per share in the period between the two stock-splits (or 2,525 shares at $0.04 per share prior to the forward stock-split on July 24, 2008 and the reverse stock-split on June 11, 2010), which was the fair market value on the date of issuance.  The total value of such shares was $99.39.  These shares were issued to compensate Ms. Chu for her services provided to the Company.

On July 30, 2009, due to an administrative error in 3,572 shares initially intended to be issued to our original thirteen shareholders for professional and administrative services previously provided to the Company, which turned into 878,761 shares (or 35,150,433 shares prior to the reverse stock-split on June 11, 2010) due to a 9840.546697 for 1 forward stock-split that mistakenly occurred earlier than scheduled (see Note 12).  Our President & CEO cancelled and returned 546,663 shares (or 21,866,527 shares prior to the reverse stock-split on June 11, 2010) to the Company on July 30, 2009 and additional 63,818 shares (or 2,552,698 shares prior to the reverse stock-split on June 11, 2010) on May 11, 2010 with no consideration being exchanged.

On February 22, 2011, the Company entered into a Debt Conversion Agreement with Ms. Hazel Chu, the Company’s President and Chief Executive Officer to convert $100,000 of the loan from Ms. Chu into 8,333,333 shares of the Company’s common stock, or $0.12 per share, the market price quoted on the date of conversion.  Such conversion was approved by the Board of Directors of the Company.  Pursuant to the debt conversion, the advances from Ms. Chu decreased to $322,781, while Ms. Chu owns 9,008,465 shares of the Company common stock, or 91.174%.

Overview

Mizati Luxury Alloy Wheels, Inc. was founded in calendar year 2001.  We are a designer, importer and wholesaler of custom luxury alloy wheels.  We operate in the wheels, tires, and suspension segment of the Specialty Automotive Equipment market.  Our products are currently sold through a national and international distribution network utilizing a variety of sales channels including the internet, automotive catalogs, and wheel and tire distributors.  We have diversified our product portfolio into three different wheel lines which allows us to offer exclusivity to certain distributors upon their request.  Currently we do not have any exclusivity agreements with distributors.

Organic sales have been the key driver of our growth.  Our organic growth strategy has been to target distributors and wheel retailers in an effort to establish a national distribution network.  Our mission is to become the premier brand and designated source for affordable luxury wheels in the United States within the next three to five years as well as to expand to the international markets.

For the purpose of better liquidity of our common shares, our Board of Directors approved an increase of its number of authorized common shares from 5,000 to 200,000,000 in February 2006 and reduced the par value per share from $80.00 to $0.0001, immediately followed by a 30,000 for 1 forward stock-split.  A certificate of amended articles of incorporation was filed with the California Secretary of State regarding the increased authorized common shares.

In June 2008, under the advice of our former securities legal counsel, given that we did not state the 30,000 for 1 forward stock-split in the aforementioned amended articles of incorporation filed with the California Secretary of State in February 2006, we should mitigate such seemingly administrative oversight by conducting a reverse stock-split to eliminate the effect of the 30,000 for 1 forward stock-split, immediately followed by a forward stock-split and corresponding corporate filings with the California Secretary of State stating these two splits, the result of which should not to affect shareholder stake or stock value.  It was believed that these two splits should complete the mitigation of the seemingly administrative oversight as stated above.

Therefore, on June 30, 2008, our Board of Directors approved a 1 for 10,000 reverse stock split for our common stocks.  As a result, stockholders of record at the close of business on June 30, 2008 received one (1) share of common stock for every ten thousand (10,000) shares held.  We issued shares in order to round up fractional shares resulting from the reverse split to the next higher whole number of shares.  Any such issuance did not constitute a sale pursuant to Section 2(3) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

On July 24, 2008, our Board of Directors approved a 9,840.546697 for 1 forward stock split for our common stocks.  As a result, stockholders of record at the close of business on July 24, 2008 received 9,840.546697 shares of common stock for every one (1) share held.

The cumulative effect of those two stock-splits was a 1 for 0.9841 reverse split for our common stocks. The purpose of these two stock-splits was intended to mitigate the seemingly administrative oversight as mentioned previously, but not to change the shareholder stake or stock value.

We were subsequently advised otherwise that stating the 30,000 for 1 forward stock-split in the amended articles of incorporation was not a requirement in the State of California, thus such omission in the corporate filing did not affect the legitimacy and effectiveness of the 30,000 for 1 stock-split executed in February 2006 given that it was appropriately approved by our Board of Directors.

On June 11, 2010, our Board of Directors approved a 1 for 40 reverse stock-split for our common stocks as deemed for the best interests of the Company.  The total number of common shares outstanding will be 1,547,162 shares after the effectiveness of the reverse split.  The FINRA had processed and effectuated the reverse split at the open of business on July 12, 2010.  The numbers of shares presented in this filing have reflected such effect.

Critical Accounting Policies

A summary of significant accounting policies is included in Note 3 to the financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2010.  Management believes that the application of these policies on a consistent basis enables us to provide useful and reliable financial information about our Company's operating results and financial condition.

Inventories

Inventories are comprised of finished goods held for sale.  We record inventories at the lower of cost or market value, with cost generally determined on a moving-average basis.  We establish inventory reserves for estimated obsolescence or unmarketable inventory in an amount equal to the difference between the cost of inventory and its estimated realizable value based upon assumptions about future demand and market conditions.  If actual demand and market conditions are less favorable than those projected by management, additional inventory reserves could be required.
 
Long Lived Assets

We account for the impairment and disposition of long-lived assets which consist primarily of intangible assets with finite lives and property and equipment in accordance with FASB Statement No. 144(ASC 360), Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets. We periodically review the recoverability of the carrying value of long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying value may not be recoverable.  Recoverability of these assets is determined by comparing the forecasted future undiscounted net cash flows from operations to which the assets relate, based on our best estimates using the appropriate assumptions and projections at the time, to the carrying amount of the assets.  If the carrying value is determined not to be recoverable from future operating cashflows, the assets are deemed impaired and an impairment loss is recognized equal to the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the estimated fair value of the assets.  Based upon management’s assessment, there was no impairment as of September 30, 2010 and 2009.

Management Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and 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.

Results of Operations for the Year Ended December 31, 2010 as compared to the Year Ended December 31, 2009:

We present the table below to show how the operating results have changed for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009.  Next to each period’s results of operations, we provide the relevant percentage of total revenues for comparing the relative change in revenues and expenses.

Comparison of the years Ended December 31, 2010 and 2009

Sales.    Sales decreased $360,370 or 60% to $241,248 in the years ended December 31, 2010, compared to $601,618 for the years ended December 31, 2009.  The decrease in sales is primarily attributable to a significant decrease in both sales volume and sales price reduction triggered by a sustained cyclical downturn in the U.S. market.  Demand for aftermarket wheels has slowed as consumers’ purchasing power has weakened.  In addition, we were undergoing huge price pressure from our competitors since 2009, which had adverse impact on our sales price.

Gross Profit.     As a percentage of revenue, gross margin increased to 29% for the year ended December 31, 2010 as compared to 7% for the year ended December 31, 2009.  The increase of gross margin was mainly derived from the sale of inventories that have been fully written down below cost at the close of the prior fiscal year due to slow-moving and obsolescence.  Cost of those inventories sold during the current year was approximately $58,971 prior to the write down.  The additional reserve in the amount of $31,120 for inventory slow-moving and obsolete items recorded for the year ended December 31, 2009 also caused its lower gross margin.  The additional inventory reserve was a result of more product types aging in our inventory for approximately a year with none or limited sales activities.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses.   Selling, general and administrative expenses ("SG&A") consist principally of professional services, rent expenses, salaries and wages, and other general corporate activities.  The amount decreased by $426,023 or 48% from $883,450 for the year 2009 to $454,427 for the year 2010.  As a percentage of sales, our SG&A increased to 190% for the year 2010 as compared to 147% for the prior year.  The increase in the balance of SG&A was primarily due to the following:
 
 
(1)
Decrease of $195,426 in professional services from $320,066 for the year 2009 to $124,640 for the year 2010, or a 61% decrease.  The higher professional service expenses incurred in 2009 were mainly due to payments for professional services related to the effectiveness of the Company’s registration statement on Form 10.  Professional accounting service expense decreased by $29,224, legal service expense decreased by $27,322, and investor relations service expense decreased by $140,879 from the year 2009 to 2010.

(2)
Decrease in salary and wages by $43,416 from $206,368 for the year 2009 to $162,952 for the year 2010, a 21% decrease.  The decrease was mainly because the base monthly salary for the Company’s CEO had been adjusted to $10,000 per month as determined during the fourth quarter of 2009, which was still within the limit of the maximum of $240,000 per year as orally agreed upon between the Company and the CEO since March 1, 2006, even though she agreed to defer the payment of salary.

 
(3)
Rent expenses decreased by $55,537 from $141,380 for the year 2009 to $85,843 for the year 2010, a 39% decrease.  In March 2009, corresponding to the Company’s cash flow management strategy and the expectation of lower demand for warehouse space, the Company terminated the prior lease contract for approximately 33,400 square feet of office and warehouse space, and moved to the current location which occupies 8,460 square feet of total space.  Monthly rent expense was reduced from $28,232 per month to approximately $6,430 per month accordingly, resulting in the decrease in rent expense.

 
(4)
Other SG&A expenses decreased by $90,644 from $174,636 for the year 2009 to $83,992 for the year 2010, a 52% decrease.  The decrease was primarily attributable to the Company’s cost reduction strategy and declining sales, resulting in decreases in temporary labor expense by $31,111 and shipping and handling charges by $17,487 from the year 2009 to the year 2010.  Bad debt expense also decreased by $11,970 due to the significant decrease in sales for the year 2010.

Loss from Operations.    Loss from operations decreased $451,655 or 54%, to ($387,481) for the year ended December 31, 2010 compared to ($839,136) for the year 2009.  As a percentage of sales, loss from operations increased to 161% for the year 2010 as compared to 139% for the year 2009.  The decrease in loss from operations was primarily due to the decrease in SG&A expenses, partially offset by the increase in gross profit as discussed above.
 
Liquidity and Capital Resources

The following summarizes the key components of the Company's cash flows for the years ended December 31,

   
2010
   
2009
 
Net cash used in operating activities
  $ (144,161 )   $ (43,772 )
Net cash used in investing activities
    (2,000 )     -  
Net cash provided by (used in) financing activities
    66,217       (12,711 )
Net decrease in cash and cash equivalents
  $ (79,944 )   $ (56,483 )

The Company’s net cash used in operating activities was adversely affected by net loss of ($440,097) in the year ended December 31, 2010 and ($928,668) in the year ended December 31, 2009.  The significant decrease in the reduction of inventory in the amount of $67,483 for the year ended December 31, 2010 as compared to $365,197 for the year 2009 signaled declines of cash inflows.  Those effects were partially offset by decrease in prepaid expense and other current assets of $35,332, and increase in accounts payable of $23,664 for the year ended December 31, 2010 as compared to increase in prepaid expense and other current assets of $56,462 and decrease in accounts payable of $19,951 for the year ended December 31, 2009, respectively.
 
In March 2006, the Company entered into an unsecured revolving credit agreement with Citibank.  The credit agreement provides for borrowings of up to $90,000.  Under the terms of the credit agreement, interest is payable monthly at annual rate of the prime rate as published in The Wall Street Journal from time to time plus 3%, which was approximately 7.00-10.00% per annum.  The line of credit was unsecured, and renews automatically on an annual basis subsequent to March 2008 with the same interest rate term which is payable on or around the 15th each month.  The Company had an unpaid principal balance of $89,538 and $90,000 at December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

In April 2007, the Company entered into a revolving credit agreement with East West Bank.  The credit agreement provides for borrowings up to $1.0 million based on a maximum of 80% of accounts receivable balance plus 25% of inventory balance as collateral, as well as maintaining an effective tangible net worth of not less than $300,000 and a current ratio of not less than 1.0 to 1.  Under the terms of the credit agreement, interest is payable monthly at 8.00% per annum until April 2008.  At the end of April 2008, the Company and East West Bank entered into a business loan agreement to mature in August 2010 to pay off the remaining balance of the previous line of credit.  The adjustable interest rate is a rate per annum equal to the Wall Street Journal Prime Rate plus 1.0 percentage point.  On February 18, 2009, the agreement was revised to agreeing that the Company will repay $1,000 of principal plus accrued unpaid interest each month for 11 consecutive months starting February 15, 2009, $2,000 of principal plus accrued unpaid interest each month for 7 consecutive months starting January 15, 2010, and $253,533 on August 31, 2010 as one principal and interest payment. On February 17, 2010, due to the tight cash flows from the plummeting sales and in order to preserve liquidity, the Company negotiated with East West Bank on revising the terms of the loan to agreeing that the Company will repay $1,500 of principal plus accrued unpaid interest each month starting March 2010 and $254,195 on August 31, 2010 as one principal and interest payment. On August 31, 2010, the term was revised to agreeing that Company will repay $1,500 of principal plus accrued unpaid interest each month for 24 consecutive months starting September 15, 2010 and $218,098 on August 31, 2012 as one principal and interest payment.  Total unpaid principal balance of the business loan and the line of credit at December 31, 2010 and 2009 was $247,519 and $266,019, respectively.

In February 2008, the Company entered into a revolving credit agreement with Bank of America.  The credit agreement provides for borrowings up to $92,500.  The adjustable interest rate is a rate per annum equal to the Wall Street Journal Prime Rate plus 4.5 percentage points.  Total unpaid principal balance at September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009 was $92,000.  This credit line is not subject to covenants that may restrict the availability of the funds.

In July 2008, the Company entered into a revolving credit agreement with Rabobank.  The credit agreement provides for borrowings up to $100,000.  The adjustable interest rate is a rate per annum equal to the Wall Street Journal Prime Rate plus 0.5 percentage points.  Total unpaid principal balance at December 31, 2010 and 2009 was $45,000 and $0, respectively.

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared under the assumption that the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business.  Historically, the Company has incurred significant losses, and has not demonstrated the ability to generate sufficient cash flows from operations to satisfy its liabilities and sustain operations.

The Company may in the future borrow additional amounts under new credit facilities or enter into new or additional borrowing arrangements.  We anticipate that any proceeds from such new or additional borrowing arrangements will be used for general corporate purposes, including launching marketing initiatives, purchase inventory, acquisitions, and for working capital.  The largest shareholder and Chief Executive Officer of the Company has orally pledged to provide financing to the company should it require additional funds.  Any necessary additional funds from the largest shareholder and Chief Executive Officer of the Company should include also the consideration of satisfying our obligations under the legal settlement discussed in Note 13.

Due to the continuous slow-down as observed in the Company’s business and as part of our cost reduction policy, the Company does not expect to incur more than $1,500 in capital expenditures for repairing or replacing aging fixed assets in the following twelve months.

The Company, taking into account the available banking facilities, internal financial resource, and its largest shareholder’s pledge, believes it has sufficient working capital to meet its present obligation for at least the next twelve months. Management is taking actions to address the company's financial condition and deteriorating liquidity position.  These steps include adjusting the company’s product portfolio to cater to what management believes is a sustained shift in consumer demand for smaller, more fuel efficient vehicles.  Specifically, the company has facilitated new designs for smaller size wheels in the 17” range to fit smaller cars.  Management believes that by expanding into this market, it can capitalize on consumer demand and drive revenue growth.  In an effort to mitigate freight charges, Mizati is speaking to distributors in markets outside of California about the possibility of shipping products directly from the manufacturers to their warehouse.  This would reduce our freight charges on long distance shipping orders and allow the company to offer more competitive pricing.  Management believes that this can be a key driver of expansion into new markets and revenues.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We have no off-balance sheet arrangements.

Material Commitments

In January 2008, we entered into a lease contract with Mission BP, LLC, under which we will lease approximately 33,400 square feet of office and warehouse space located in Pomona, California.   The lease contract provided a term of 60 months, commencing in March 2008 and ending February 2013.  Rental obligations will be payable on a monthly basis.  In March, 2009, the Company terminated the lease and entered into settlement with Mission BP, LLC.  Two litigations were filed by Mission BP, LLC after the termination as stated in Note 13 of the financial statements for December 31, 2010.

Immediately after terminating the lease with Mission BP, LLC, in March 2009, the Company assumed a three-month sublease from Zonet USA Corporation for 8,460 square feet of office and warehouse space located in Walnut, California.  The sublease contract commenced in April 2009 and ended in June 2009.  As required and in conjunction with the sublease, the Company entered into a lease agreement with Bayport Harrison Associates, LP for the same location commencing July 2009 and ending September 2012.  Such change corresponds to the Company’s cash flow management strategy, which will better preserve spending in operating expenses and increase available capital in inventory purchase, marketing, and other revenue-generating activities.

Future minimum lease payments due subsequent to December 31, 2010 under all non-cancelable operating leases for the next five years are as follows:

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act. Based on this evaluation, our management, including our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer, concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the fiscal quarter covered by this Annual Report, to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports filed or submitted by us under the Exchange Act (i) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time period specified in SEC rules and forms, and (ii) is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow appropriate decisions on a timely basis regarding required disclosure.

Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
 
Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control structure and procedures over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f)) under the Exchange Act. Our management conducted an assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2010 based on the framework similarly set forth in Internal Control — Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission.
 
Internal control over financial reporting cannot provide absolute assurance of achieving financial reporting objectives because of its inherent limitations. Internal control over financial reporting is a process that involves human diligence and compliance and is subject to lapses in judgment and breakdowns resulting from human failures. Because of such limitations, there is a risk that material misstatements may not be prevented or detected on a timely basis by internal control over financial reporting. 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.
 
Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2010 was effective.    

This annual report does not include an attestation report of the Company’s registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by the Company’s registered public accounting firm pursuant to the permanent exemption rules for smaller reporting companies, which require the company to provide only management’s report in this annual report.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
 
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during our last fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

ITEM 13.  Certain Relationships and Related Transactions, and Director Independence

Since March 1, 2006, Hazel Chu, our Chief Executive Officer of Mizati has had an oral employment contract with the Company which provided for a salary of up to $240,000 per year. Based on the financial condition of the Company, Ms. Chu agrees to receive smaller portion of the salary; therefore, Ms. Chu was paid $500 and $9,800 in 2010 and 2009, respectively, with $230,980 and $110,200 recorded as accrued expense as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.  Ms. Chu will continue to adjust her annual salary based on the Company’s operation results without harming its cash flows.

On January 13, 2006, January 18, 2006, and January 18, 2008, Company’s President and Chief Executive Officer loaned the Company $300,000, $123,300, $60,000, respectively, in exchange for promissory notes for a period of ten (10) years, bearing interest at various floating interest rates from 0% to 10% per annum.  The Company recorded interest expense of $14,948 on these notes for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.  The total unpaid principal balance was $382,601 as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.  In 2010, the Company borrowed additional $40,180 from the Company’s President and Chief Executive Officer with no written agreement, bearing no interest, and no specific due date.  The total unpaid principal balance was $100,000 as of December 31, 2010.

In February 2009, the Company entered into a service agreement verbally with two individuals for designing twelve to sixteen sets of new wheels prior to August 2009, from which the Company will select four final sets for molding, although molding is not included in the service for this time.  Compensation for such designing service was agreed at $96,000 in total which shall be paid in the Company’s common shares upon entering into the agreement.  Those two individuals are also shareholders of the Company, each of which owned 0.00056% and 0.00053% of the Company’s common shares, respectively prior to such agreement.  On February 11, 2009, the Company issued a total of 120,000 common shares (or 4,800,000 common shares prior to the reverse stock-split on June 11, 2010), with one received 62,500 shares (or 2,500,000 shares prior to the reverse stock-split on June 11, 2010) and the other received 57,500 shares (or 2,300,000 shares prior to the reverse stock-split on June 11, 2010), at $0.80 per share (or $0.02 per share prior to the reverse stock-split on June 11, 2010), the fair market value on the date of issuance (the measurement date), or a total value of $96,000 upon entering into the agreement.  Although there were no sufficiently large disincentives for nonperformance as set forth in the agreement, the equity award granted to the two individuals performing the services was fully vested and nonforfeitable on the date the parties entered into the contract. Immediately after the share issuances, the two individuals owned 2.90% and 2.67% of the Company’s common shares, respectively.  The $96,000 was initially recorded as prepaid expense and the total amount was fully amortized during the year ended December 31, 2009 upon completion of the wheel designs.

In July 2009, the promissory note with the Secretary of the Company in the amount of $6,000 was renewed in writing and extended to March 1, 2012, and was recorded as subscription receivable as of December 31, 2010 and 2009.

On July 30, 2009, due to an administrative error in 3,572 shares initially intended to be issued to our original thirteen shareholders for professional and administrative services previously provided to the Company, which turned into 878,761 shares (or 35,150,433 shares prior to the reverse stock-split on June 11, 2010) due to a 9840.546697 for 1 forward stock-split that mistakenly occurred earlier than scheduled (see Note 12).  Our President & CEO cancelled and returned 546,663 shares (or 21,866,527 shares prior to the reverse stock-split on June 11, 2010) to the Company on July 30, 2009 and additional 63,818 shares (or 2,552,698 shares prior to the reverse stock-split on June 11, 2010) on May 11, 2010 with no consideration being exchanged.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
 
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of
Mizati Luxury Alloy Wheels, Inc.:

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Mizati Luxury Alloy Wheels, Inc. (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, and the related statements of operations, changes in stockhold’rs' deficit, and cash flows for the years then ended.  These financial statements are the responsibility of the Comp’ny'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 audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement.  The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting.  Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.  Accordingly, we express no such opinion.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.  An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.  We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Mizati Luxury Alloy Wheels, Inc. as of December 31, 2010 and 2009 and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern.  As described in Note 2 of the financial statements, the Company has incurred recurring losses and has a stockholders’ deficit at December 31, 2010 and 2009.  These matters raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.  Management’s plan in regard to these matters is also described in Note 2 to the financial statements.  The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

MIZATI LUXURY ALLOY WHEELS, INC.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION AND NATURE OF OPERATIONS

Mizati Luxury Alloy Wheels, Inc (referred to herein as the Company, we, our or us) was organized under the laws of the State of California in calendar year 2001.  The Company is a designer, importer and wholesaler of custom alloy wheels for passenger cars, sport utility vehicles, and light trucks.  The Company currently markets and distributes three separate and unique brands of luxury wheels, Mizati®, Hero(TM), and Zati(TM) through a network of 307 distributors.

NOTE 2 – GOING CONCERN

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business.  Historically, the Company has incurred significant losses, and has not demonstrated the ability to generate sufficient cash flows from operations to satisfy its liabilities and sustain operations.  The Company had accumulated deficit of $(3,932,386) and $(3,492,289) as of  December 31, 2010 and 2009, including net losses of $(440,097) and $(928,668) for the years then ended.  In addition, current liabilities exceeded current assets by $2,780,768 and $2,335,140 at December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.  These factors indicate that the Company may not be able to continue its business in the future.  The Company finances its operations by short term and long term bank borrowings with more reliance on the use of short-term borrowings as the corresponding borrowing costs are lower compared to long-term borrowings.  There can be no assurance that such borrowings will be available to the company in the future.

In March 2006, the Company entered into an unsecured revolving credit agreement with Citibank.  The credit agreement provides for borrowings of up to $90,000.  Under the terms of the credit agreement, interest is payable monthly at annual rate of the prime rate as published in The Wall Street Journal from time to time plus 3%, which was approximately 7.00-10.00% per annum.  The line of credit was unsecured, and renews automatically on an annual basis subsequent to March 2008 with the same interest rate term which is payable on or around the 15th each month.  The Company had an unpaid principal balance of $89,538 and $90,000 at December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

In April 2007, the Company entered into a revolving credit agreement with East West Bank.  The credit agreement provides for borrowings up to $1.0 million based on a maximum of 80% of accounts receivable balance plus 25% of inventory balance as collateral, as well as maintaining an effective tangible net worth of not less than $300,000 and a current ratio of not less than 1.0 to 1.  Under the terms of the credit agreement, interest is payable monthly at 8.00% per annum until April 2008.  At the end of April 2008, the Company and East West Bank entered into a business loan agreement to mature in August 2010 to pay off the remaining balance of the previous line of credit.  The adjustable interest rate is a rate per annum equal to the Wall Street Journal Prime Rate plus 1.0 percentage point.  On February 18, 2009, the agreement was revised to agreeing that the Company will repay $1,000 of principal plus accrued unpaid interest each month for 11 consecutive months starting February 15, 2009, $2,000 of principal plus accrued unpaid interest each month for 7 consecutive months starting January 15, 2010, and $253,533 on August 31, 2010 as one principal and interest payment.  On February 17, 2010, due to the tight cash flows from the plummeting sales and in order to preserve liquidity, the Company negotiated with East West Bank on revising the terms of the loan to agreeing that the Company will repay $1,500 of principal plus accrued unpaid interest each month starting March 2010 and $254,195 on August 31, 2010 as one principal and interest payment.  On August 31, 2010, the term was revised to agreeing that Company will repay $1,500 of principal plus accrued unpaid interest each month for 24 consecutive months starting September 15, 2010 and $218,098 on August 31, 2012 as one principal and interest payment. Total unpaid principal balance of the business loan and the line of credit at December 31, 2010 and 2009 was $247,519 and $266,019, respectively.

In February 2008, the Company entered into a revolving credit agreement with Bank of America.  The credit agreement provides for borrowings up to $92,500.  The adjustable interest rate is a rate per annum equal to the Wall Street Journal Prime Rate plus 4.5 percentage points.  Total unpaid principal balance at December 31, 2010 and 2009 was $92,000.  This credit line is not subject to covenants that may restrict the availability of the funds.

MIZATI LUXURY ALLOY WHEELS, INC.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

In July 2008, the Company entered into a revolving credit agreement with Rabobank.  The credit agreement provides for borrowings up to $100,000.  The adjustable interest rate is a rate per annum equal to the Wall Street Journal Prime Rate plus 0.5 percentage points.  Total unpaid principal balance at  and December 31, 2010 and 2009 was $45,000 and $0, respectively.

The Company may in the future borrow additional amounts under new credit facilities or enter into new or additional borrowing arrangements. We anticipate that any proceeds from such new or additional borrowing arrangements will be used for general corporate purposes, including launching marketing initiatives, purchase inventory, acquisitions, and for working capital.  The largest shareholder and Chief Executive Officer of the Company has orally pledged to provide financing to the company should it require additional funds.

The Company may require additional funds and may seek to raise such funds though public and private financings or from other sources.  There is no assurance that additional financing will be available at all or that, if available, such financing will be obtainable on terms favorable to the Company or that any additional financing will not be dilutive.  Any necessary additional funds from the largest shareholder and Chief Executive Officer of the Company should include also the consideration of satisfying our obligations under the legal settlement discussed on Note 13.

The Company, taking into account the available banking facilities, internal financial resource, and its largest shareholder’s pledge, believes it has sufficient working capital to meet its present obligation for at least the next twelve months.  Management is taking actions to address the company's financial condition and deteriorating liquidity position.  These steps include adjusting the company’s product portfolio to cater to what management believes is a sustained shift in consumer demand for smaller, more fuel efficient vehicles.  Specifically, the company plans to develop a smaller sized wheel in the 17” range to fit smaller cars.  Management believes that by expanding into this market, it can capitalize on consumer demand and drive revenue growth.  In an effort to mitigate freight charges, the Company is speaking to distributors in markets outside of California about the possibility of shipping products directly from the manufacturers to their warehouse.  This would reduce our freight charges on long distance shipping orders and allow the company to offer more competitive pricing.  Management believes that this can be a key driver of expansion into new markets and revenues.

NOTE 3 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include unrestricted deposits and short-term investments with an original maturity of three months or less.

Accounts Receivable

Accounts receivable and other receivable are recorded at net realizable value consisting of the carrying amount less an allowance for uncollectible accounts, as needed.  We assess the collectability of our accounts receivable based primarily upon the creditworthiness of the customer as determined by credit checks and analysis, as well as the customer’s payment history.  Management reviews the composition of accounts receivable and analyzes historical bad debts, customer concentrations, customer credit worthiness, current economic trends and changes in customer payment patterns to evaluate the adequacy of these reserves.

Inventories

Inventories are comprised of finished goods held for sale.  We record inventories at the lower of cost or market value, with cost generally determined on a moving-average basis.  We establish inventory reserves for estimated obsolescence or unmarketable inventory in an amount equal to the difference between the cost of inventory and its estimated realizable value based upon assumptions about future demand and market conditions.  If actual demand and market conditions are less favorable than those projected by management, additional inventory reserves could be required.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are recorded at cost.  Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets of three to thirty-nine years.  Leasehold improvements are amortized on a straight-line basis over the lesser of the remaining term of the lease or the estimated useful life of the asset.  Significant improvements are capitalized and expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred.

Reclassifications

Certain comparative amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period's presentation.

Revenue Recognition

We recognize product revenue when the following fundamental criteria are met: (i) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, (ii) delivery has occurred, (iii) our price to the customer is fixed or determinable and (iv) collection of the resulting accounts receivable is reasonably assured.  We recognize revenue for product sales upon transfer of title to the customer.  Customer purchase orders and/or contracts are generally used to determine the existence of an arrangement.  Shipping documents and the completion of any customer acceptance requirements, when applicable, are used to verify product delivery or that services have been rendered. We assess whether a price is fixed or determinable based upon the payment terms associated with the transaction and whether the sales price is subject to refund or adjustment. We record reductions to revenue for estimated product returns and pricing adjustments in the same period that the related revenue is recorded. These estimates are based on historical sales returns, analysis of credit memo data, and other factors known at the time. Historically these amounts have not been material.

Management Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and 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.

Financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value

Effective January 1, 2008, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 157(ASC 820) Fair Value Measurements. This Statement defines fair value for certain financial and nonfinancial assets and liabilities that are recorded at fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. This guidance applies to other accounting pronouncements that require or permit fair value measurements. On February 12, 2008, the FASB finalized FASB Staff Position (FSP) No. 157-2, Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 157(ASC 820). This Staff Position delays the effective date of SFAS No. 157(ASC 820) for nonfinancial assets and liabilities to fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008 and interim periods within those fiscal years, except for those items that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a recurring basis (at least annually). The adoption of SFAS No. 157(ASC 820) had no effect on the Company's financial position or results of operations.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Share-Based Payments

In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123(R), “Share-Based Payment”, which replaces SFAS No. 123 and supersedes APB Opinion No. 25.  SFAS No. 123(R) is now included in ASC 718 “Compensation – Stock Compensation”.  Under SFAS No. 123(R), companies are required to measure the compensation costs of share-based compensation arrangements based on the grant-date fair value and recognize the costs in the financial statements over the period during which employees or independent contractors are required to provide services.  Share-based compensation arrangements include stock options and warrants, restricted share plans, performance-based awards, share appreciation rights, and employee share purchase plans.  In March 2005, the SEC issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 107 (“SAB 107”).  SAB 107 expresses views of the staff regarding the interaction between SFAS No. 123(R) and certain SEC rules and regulations and provides the staff’s views regarding the valuation of share-based payment arrangements for public companies.  SFAS No. 123(R) permits public companies to adopt its requirements using one of two methods.  On April 14, 2005, the SEC adopted a new rule amending the compliance of retrospective application under which financial statements for prior periods are adjusted on a basis consistent with the pro forma disclosures required for those periods under SFAS 123.

Concentration of Credit Risk

The credit risk on liquid funds is limited because the majority of the counterparties are banks with high credit-ratings assigned by international credit-rating agencies and state-owned banks with good reputation.

The Company’s management monitors both vendor and customer concentration figures.  For the year ended December 31, 2010, one customer accounted for 11% while one supplier accounted for 100% of purchases.  For the year ended December 31, 2009, one customer accounted for 15% of sales while one supplier accounted for 100% of purchases.

Deferred Taxes

We utilize the liability method of accounting for income taxes.  We record a valuation allowance to reduce our deferred tax assets to the amount that we believe is more likely than not to be realized.  In assessing the need for a valuation allowance, we consider all positive and negative evidence, including scheduled reversals of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income, tax planning strategies, and recent financial performance.  As a result of our cumulative losses, we have concluded that a full valuation allowance against our net deferred tax assets is appropriate.

In July 2006 the FASB issued FIN 48(ASC 740-10), Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes — An Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109(ASC 740), which requires income tax positions to meet a more-likely-than-not recognition threshold to be recognized in the financial statements.  Under FIN 48(ASC 740-10), tax positions that previously failed to meet the more-likely-than-not threshold should be recognized in the first subsequent financial reporting period in which that threshold is met.  Previously recognized tax positions that no longer meet the more-likely-than-not threshold should be derecognized in the first subsequent financial reporting period in which that threshold is no longer met.

The application of tax laws and regulations is subject to legal and factual interpretation, judgment and uncertainty. Tax laws and regulations themselves are subject to change as a result of changes in fiscal policy, changes in legislation, the evolution of regulations and court rulings.  Therefore, the actual liability may be materially different from our estimates, which could result in the need to record additional tax liabilities or potentially reverse previously recorded tax liabilities or deferred tax asset valuation allowance.

As a result of the implementation of FIN 48 (ASC 740-10), the company made a comprehensive review of its portfolio of tax positions in accordance with recognition standards established by FIN 48 (ASC 740-10).  The Company recognized no material adjustments to liabilities or stockholders’ equity in lieu of the implementation.  The adoption of FIN 48 did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.

Income Taxes

The Company determined that due to its continuing operating losses, no income tax liabilities existed at  and December 31, 2010 and 2009.

Long Lived Assets

We account for the impairment and disposition of long-lived assets which consist primarily of intangible assets with finite lives and property and equipment in accordance with FASB Statement No. 144 (ASC 360), Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets. We periodically review the recoverability of the carrying value of long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying value may not be recoverable.  Recoverability of these assets is determined by comparing the forecasted future undiscounted net cash flows from operations to which the assets relate, based on our best estimates using the appropriate assumptions and projections at the time, to the carrying amount of the assets.  If the carrying value is determined not to be recoverable from future operating cash flows, the assets are deemed impaired and an impairment loss is recognized equal to the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the estimated fair value of the assets.  Based upon management’s assessment, there was no impairment at  December 31, 2010 and 2009.

Intangible Assets

The Company evaluates intangible assets for impairment, at least on an annual basis and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable from its estimated future cash flows.  Recoverability of intangible assets and other long-lived assets is measured by comparing their net book value to the related projected undiscounted cash flows from these assets, considering a number of factors including past operating results, budgets, economic projections, market trends and product development cycles.  If the net book value of the asset exceeds the related undiscounted cash flows, the asset is considered impaired, and a second test is performed to measure the amount of impairment loss.

Contingencies

From time to time we are involved in disputes, litigation and other legal proceedings.  We prosecute and defend these matters aggressively.  However, there are many uncertainties associated with any litigation, and we cannot assure you that these actions or other third party claims against us will be resolved without costly litigation and/or substantial settlement charges.  We record a charge equal to at least the minimum estimated liability for a loss contingency when both of the following conditions are met: (i) information available prior to issuance of the financial statements indicates that it is probable that an asset had been impaired or a liability had been incurred at the date of the financial statements and (ii) the range of loss can be reasonably estimated.  However, the actual liability in any such disputes or litigation may be materially different from our estimates, which could result in the need to record additional costs.

Advertising Costs

We expense advertising costs as incurred.  Advertising expenses were $4,499 and $3,717 for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

Net Loss per Common Share

Basic net loss per share is calculated by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period.  Diluted net loss per share reflects the potential dilution of securities by including common stock equivalents, such as stock options, stock warrants and convertible preferred stock, in the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for a period, if dilutive.  At December 31, 2010 and 2009, there were no potentially dilutive securities.
 
NOTE 4 – RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

The Company has adopted all recently issued accounting pronouncements.  The adoption of the accounting pronouncements, including those not yet effective, is not anticipated to have a material effect on the financial position or results of operations of the Company.

Shares Issued in Lieu of Promissory Notes

In March 2006, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized the Company to sell and issue common shares 3,998 common shares at $8.1298 per share (or 162,500 shares at $0.20 per share prior to the reverse stock-split on June 30, 2008 and the reverse stock-split on June 11, 2010) for an aggregate amount of $32,500.  Those shares were issued to nine of the Company’s officers and employees at that time, including 738 shares (or 30,000 shares prior to the reverse stock-split on June 30, 2008 and the reverse stock-split on June 11, 2010) to the Secretary of the Company.  The purpose of those stock issuances was primarily to motivate employees and increase their loyalty to the Company by inviting them to participate into the Company’s equity and become shareholders.  The Company obtained three-year full recourse promissory notes bearing interest at 8.0% as consideration for the common shares issued which have been reflected as a stock subscription receivable at December 31, 2008.  As of December 31, 2008, no principal payments had been received on the promissory notes.  As of March 2009, except for the Secretary of the Company, the other eight employees were no longer with the Company.  After performing collection efforts, and even though the notes state that the undersigned parties of the notes agreed to remain bound notwithstanding any extension, modification, waiver, or other indulgence or discharge or release of any obligor hereunder, due to the high uncertainty of payment collection from the eight former employees, the balance of $26,500 was written off and recorded as other expense for the year ended December 31, 2008.  In July 2009, the promissory note with the Secretary of the Company in the amount of $6,000 was renewed in writing and extended to March 1, 2012, and was recorded as subscription receivable as of December 31, 2010 and 2009.

On July 24, 2008, the Company issued 35,150,433 common shares at $0.000004 per share which occurred in the period between the two stock-splits (or 3,572 shares at $0.039 per share prior to the forward stock-split on July 24, 2008 and the reverse stock-split on June 11, 2010) to the thirteen original shareholders for professional and administrative services previously provided to the Company.

In February 2008, the Company entered into a service agreement verbally with an individual, a non-related party, for designing five to eight sets of new wheels from which the Company selected two final sets for molding.  The designs and molding should be completed prior to October 2008.  Compensation for these services was agreed at $60,000 that shall be paid in cash or the Company’s common shares upon completion of work.  On or around October 27, 2008, the new designs and molding of wheels were completed.  On October 27, 2008, the Company issued 48,000 common shares at $0.80 per share (or 1,920,000 common shares at $0.02 per share prior to the reverse stock-split on June 11, 2010), the fair market value on the date the works were completed (the measurement date), or a total value of $38,400 to compensate the vendor.  Such amount was recorded through professional expense for the year ended December 31, 2008, and the remaining $21,600 was recorded as accrued expense.  On February 5, 2009, the Company issued 27,000 common shares at $0.80 per share (or 1,080,000 common shares at $0.02 per share prior to the reverse stock-split on June 11, 2010), the same fair market value as on the date the works were completed, or a total value of $21,600 to compensate the vendor and payoff the remaining balance.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

In February 2009, the Company entered into a service agreement verbally with two individuals for designing twelve to sixteen sets of new wheels prior to August 2009, from which the Company will select four final sets for molding, although molding is not included in the service for this time.  Compensation for such designing service was agreed at $96,000 in total which shall be paid in the Company’s common shares upon entering into the agreement.  Those two individuals are also shareholders of the Company, each of which owned 0.00056% and 0.00053% of the Company’s common shares, respectively prior to such agreement.  On February 11, 2009, the Company issued a total of 120,000 common shares (or 4,800,000 common shares prior to the reverse stock-split on June 11, 2010), with one received 62,500 shares (or 2,500,000 shares prior to the reverse stock-split on June 11, 2010) and the other received 57,500 shares (or 2,300,000 shares prior to the reverse stock-split on June 11, 2010), at $0.80 per share (or $0.02 per share prior to the reverse stock-split on June 11, 2010), the fair market value on the date of issuance (the measurement date), or a total value of $96,000 upon entering into the agreement.  Although there were no sufficiently large disincentives for nonperformance as set forth in the agreement, the equity award granted to the two individuals performing the services was fully vested and nonforfeitable on the date the parties entered into the contract. Immediately after the share issuances, the two individuals owned 2.90% and 2.67% of the Company’s common shares, respectively.  The $96,000 was initially recorded as prepaid expense and the total amount was fully amortized during the year ended December 31, 2009 upon completion of the wheel designs.

In February 2009, the Company entered into a service agreement verbally with an individual, a non-related party, for searching and identifying at least five new wheel manufacturers for the Company during the period from March 2009 to December 2009.  Compensation for such service was agreed at $40,000 which shall be paid in the Company’s common shares upon entering into the agreement.  On February 11, 2009, the Company issued 50,000 common shares at $0.80 per share (or 2,000,000 common shares at $0.02 per share prior to the reverse stock-split on June 11, 2010), the fair market value on the date of issuance (the measurement date), or a total value of $40,000 upon entering into the agreement.  Although there were no sufficiently large disincentives for nonperformance as set forth in the service agreement, the equity award granted to the party performing the services was fully vested and nonforfeitable on the date the parties entered into the contract.  The $40,000 was initially recorded as prepaid expense and the total amount was fully amortized during the year ended December 31, 2009.
 
In February 2009, the President and CEO of the Company verbally assigned $100,000 of the debt owed to her by the Company, to Mr. Hsun-Ching Chuang, the major shareholder of Max Fung Trading Co., Ltd. for repaying a personal loan she was obligated to Mr. Chuang.  Mr. Chuang agreed to accept the Company’s common shares in repaying such debt.  Mr. Chuang was a non-related party prior to accepting the shares in payment of the loan.  On February 11, 2009, the Company issued 125,000 common shares at $0.80 per share (or 5,000,000 common shares at $0.02 per share prior to the reverse stock-split on June 11, 2010), the fair market value on the date of issuance (the measurement date), or a total value of $100,000 to Mr. Chuang.  The balance of loan from the President and CEO of the Company was reduced by $100,000 accordingly.

Also in February 2009, the Company entered into a written service agreement with Mr. Chuang for services of searching new investors and funding resources for the Company during the period from February 2009 to February 2012.  Compensation for such service was agreed at $100,000 which shall be paid in the Company’s common shares upon entering into the agreement.  Both parties agreed that the shares issued should be returned to the Company without recourse for nonperformance of the services.  On February 11, 2009, the Company issued 125,000 shares at $0.80 per share (or 5,000,000 shares at $0.02 per share prior to the reverse stock-split on June 11, 2010), the fair market value on the date of performance commitment, upon entering into the agreement.  As agreed, 50,000 shares (or 2,000,000 shares prior to the reverse stock-split on June 11, 2010) should be returned to the Company if the amount of new funding through such service is less than $150,000 by the end of the service period, whereas all 5,000,000 shares should be returned to the Company if less than $120,000.  Immediately after the above two share issuances, Mr. Chuang owned 11.59% of the Company’s common shares.  The $100,000 was initially recorded as prepaid expense, of which $63,888 and $30,556 was expensed during  the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, leaving the remaining $36,112 and $69,444 recorded in the prepayment as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

Stock Splits

For the purpose of better liquidity for the Company’s common shares, the Company’s Board of Directors approved an increase of its number of authorized common shares from 5,000 to 200,000,000 in February 2006 and changed the par value per share from $80.00 to $0.0001, immediately followed by a 30,000 for 1 forward stock-split.  A certificate of amended articles of incorporation was filed with the California Secretary of State stating the increased number of authorized common shares.

MIZATI LUXURY ALLOY WHEELS, INC.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

In June 2008, under the advice of the Company’s former securities legal counsel, given that the Company did not state the 30,000 for 1 forward stock-split in the aforementioned amended articles of incorporation filed with the California Secretary of State in February 2006, the Company should mitigate such seemingly administrative oversight by conducting a reverse stock-split to eliminate the effect of the 30,000 for 1 forward stock-split, immediately followed by a forward stock-split and corresponding corporate filings with the California Secretary of State stating these two splits, the result of which should not to affect shareholder stake or stock value.  It was believed that these two splits should complete the mitigation of the seemingly administrative oversight as stated above.

Therefore, on June 30, 2008, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a 1 for 10,000 reverse stock split for its common stocks.  As a result, stockholders of record at the close of business on June 30, 2008 received one (1) share of common stock for every ten thousand (10,000) shares held.  The Company issued shares in order to round up fractional shares resulting from the reverse split to the next higher whole number of shares.  Any such issuance did not constitute a sale pursuant to Section 2(3) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

On July 24, 2008, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a 9,840.546697 for 1 forward stock split for its common stocks.  As a result, stockholders of record at the close of business on July 24, 2008 received 9,840.546697 shares of common stock for every one (1) share held.

The cumulative effect of those two stock-splits was a 1 for 0.9841 reverse split for the Company’s common stocks.  The purpose of these two stock-splits was intended to mitigate the seemingly administrative oversight as mentioned previously, but not to change the shareholder stake or stock value.

Management was subsequently advised otherwise that stating the 30,000 for 1 forward stock-split in the amended articles of incorporation was not a requirement in the State of California, thus such omission in the corporate filing did not affect the legitimacy and effectiveness of the 30,000 for 1 stock-split executed in February 2006 given that it was appropriately approved by the Company’s Board of Directors.
 
On June 11, 2010, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a 1 for 40 reverse stock-split for its common stocks as deemed for the best interests of the Company.  The FINRA had processed and effectuated the reverse split at the open of business on July 12, 2010.
 
Common stocks, additional paid-in capital, number of shares and per share data for prior periods have been restated to reflect the stock splits as if they had occurred at the beginning of the earliest period presented.

Shares Cancelled

In October 2008, to ensure that the two stock-splits did not affect the shareholder stake, management conducted an analysis by comparing the numbers of shares of the original thirteen shareholders subsequent to the July 24, 2008 forward stock-split with their numbers of shares prior to the June 30, 2008 reverse stock-split, noting that an additional 842,403 shares (or 33,696,125 shares prior to the reverse stock-split on June 11, 2010) were added to the thirteen shareholders.  These additional shares were primarily resulting from the 878,761 shares issued to the thirteen shareholders at $0.00016 per share on July 24, 2008 (or 3,572 shares at $0.039 per share prior to the forward stock-split on July 24, 2008 and the reverse stock-split on June 11, 2010).  The 3,572 shares were the number of shares initially intended to be issued immediately after the forward stock-split, but were processed and issued by our transfer agent prior to the split.  As a result, the 3,572 shares issued to the thirteen shareholders were affected by the forward stocks-split turning into 878,761 shares.

NOTE 13 – CONTINGENCIES AND LITIGATION LIABILITIES

On February 2, 2009, Spanish Broadcasting System Inc. aka Spanish Broadcasting Systems, Inc. dba KXOL adba KXOL Latino 96.3 FM (the “Plaintiff”), filed a complaint in the Los Angeles County Superior Court, Beverley Hills Courthouse for reasonable value, account stated, and open book account for commercial advertisement performed by KXOL, seeking damages of $12,200, with interest thereon at the rate of ten percent (10%) per annum from October 28, 2007.  The Company disputed Plaintiff’s entitlement to amounts claimed and instructed the Company’s legal counsel to contest the action, while concurrently pursuing opportunities for reasonable settlement.  On March 17, 2009, judgment was entered against the Company.  The Company settled the judgment for the principal amount of $12,000, with the Plaintiff waiving its claims for attorney’s fees, interest and costs.  The Company’s former legal counsel had cleared such payment for the Company.  The $12,000 was recorded as other payable on the balance sheet as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, and “Marketing expense accrued for litigation settlement” on the statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2009.

On February 20, 2009, Dare Wheel Manufacturing Co., Ltd. (the “Plaintiff”), one of the Company’s major vendors in China, filed a complaint in the Los Angeles County Superior Court, Pomona Courthouse for open book account, account stated, and goods, wares and merchandise, seeking damages of $716,900, with interest thereon at the rate of ten percent (10%) per annum from March 10, 2008.  On April 15, 2009, defendant removed the state court action to the United States District Court for the Central District of California.  On December 14, 2009, the United States District Court for the Central District of California issued a dismissal without prejudice.  The dismissal without prejudice was granted by the court to allow the Plaintiff to proceed with the action in a proper forum.  It is highly uncertain regarding whether the plaintiff would choose to pursue this claim in another forum.  As of December 31 2010 and 2009, the $716,900 was equivalent to the accounts payable owed to the Plaintiff as recorded on the balance sheet, and was already recorded in inventory cost which therefore did not impact the statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2010.

On February 18, 2009, Mission BP, LLC (the “Plaintiff”) filed a complaint in the Los Angeles County Superior Court, Pomona Courthouse for unlawful detainer, for base rent of $25,725.70, additional rent of $4,027.14, holdover damages of $991.76 per day, and for attorneys’ fees and costs.  The Company disputed Plaintiff’s right to unlawful detainer on the grounds that it had billed for and collected additional rent in violation of the terms of the lease.  The case went to trial on March 25, 2009, at which time the Company entered into settlement with Plaintiff as follows:

 
1.
The Company stipulated to restitution of the premises to Plaintiff on or before April 3, 2009.
 
2.
The Company agreed to waive any rights to its security deposit of $56,463.70, and Plaintiff agreed to apply such security deposit to unpaid rent and holdover damages incurred by Plaintiff in the action.  The $56,463.70 security deposit forfeited was charged through rent expense for the year ended December 31, 2009 accordingly.
 
3.
The parties agreed that the settlement was without prejudice to other claims either party may have relating to the tenancy.

The settlement was a favorable resolution for the Company as it allowed it to apply its security deposit to rent due, and to relocate and replace an above-market lease with a substantially more economical lease.

On June 3, 2009, Mission BP, LLC (the “Plaintiff”) filed a complaint in the Los Angeles County Superior Court, Pomona Courthouse for alleged damage for breach of lease in the amount of $41,038, and for attorney’s fees and costs according to proof.  This case is subject to a conditional settlement that calls for a dismissal of the case no later than May 15, 2012.  The total value of the settlement is $29,000.  An initial payment of $2,000 is due on February 28, 2010.  The settlement calls for the remainder to be paid in increments of no less than $1,000 due at the end of each month for twenty-three (23) consecutive months, starting on March 31, 2010 and concluding February 28, 2012.  Additionally, there is a $4,000 balloon payment due March 31, 2012 upon the conclusion of payments on February 28, 2012.  This balloon payment will be discounted if the final payment is made prior to February 28, 2011.  The discount shall be $200 for number of months between the early final payment date and the date of February 2012 and the adjusted payment shall be paid the month following the actual final payment date.  In the event of default on a payment by more than 3 days, the Company shall be liable for $41,038 less previous payments and subject to the maximum rate of interest allowed by law.  The initial $29,000 was recorded as “Rent expense accrued for litigation settlement” on the statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2009, and other payable on the balance sheet as of December 31, 2009, with $12,000 due within one year recorded under current liabilities and $17,000 due over one year recorded under long-term liabilities.  As of December 31, 2010, $12,000 due within one year was recorded in Other Payable under current liabilities and $5,000 due over one year was recorded under long-term liabilities.
