Description of Business


Overview


A worldwide problem facing society is how to deal with organic wastes such as sewage sludge. In particular, the solid, liquid and gaseous materials remaining from this organic waste stream are a significant source of pollution. Increases in animal production, especially hogs and poultry, together with the application of liquid manures and dewatered biosolids onto land, have created serious air, soil and water pollution problems. These matters have resulted in an urgent need for solutions to reduce and deal with these environmental pollutants. As a result of societal and environmental pressures, governments are now enacting strict laws and regulations to reduce pollution and to require towns, industrial operations and cities to effectively deal with organic wastes. China is at the forefront of this government initiative as almost 60% of all sewage sludge and wastewater in China is not treated and of the remaining 40% where systems exist, many have to be upgraded. China has now implemented North American and European standards.


Recognizing this need, the Company has acquired the exclusive rights to market, manufacture, distribute, sell a patented wastewater treatment technology in China.  The technology is owned by Ecofluid Systems, Inc., and is licensed to the Company pursuant to the terms and conditions of a license agreement between the China Wastewater and Ecofluid System, Inc.  The terms and conditions of the license agreement are discussed more fully below. Additionally, as discussed more fully below, the Company also holds a non-exclusive right to acquire a patent and a trademark from Ecofluid System Inc. pursuant to the terms and conditions of a non-exclusive right to purchase agreement.  




3



Ecofluid. has been in business since 1995, providing proprietary biological wastewater treatment systems to real estate developers, food processors and municipalities across North America and the Caribbean.  Ecofluid has completed  more than 136 installations in 23 jurisdictions.  


Ecofluid Systems, Inc. holds the rights to a patent which covers the Upflow Sludge Blanket Filtration process (“USBF TM””), as well as several advancements to this system   Specifically, Ecofluid Systems, Inc. owns United States Patent NO: US 7,270,750 B2, a CALRIFIER RECYCLE SYSTEM DESIGNED FOR USE IN WASTEWATER TREATMENT SYSTEM.  The patent addresseses a recycle system for use in a waste treatment facility utilizing either partially fluidized or combined fluidized bed filtration principles comprising the use of discrete passage ways to allow flow between the bottom of the clarifier and the aeration compartment, a baffle positioned between bub-blers in the aeration compartment and the clarifier openings, and a conduit positioned in the clarifier to provide flow between the clarifier and the anoxic compartment that helps prevent the formation of settled sludge pockets, allows for almost complete evacuation of the solids during “no flow” conditions, and improves on other inefficient conditions inherent in treatment systems using prior art recycle designs.


Ecofluid’s technology is not limited to the packaged treatment market. The Ecofluid technology can also be applied to Municipal Water Treatment, Industrial Wastewater Treatment and Wastewater Treatment for Water Reuse. Pursuant to its rights to the license agreement, the Company plans on establishing wastewater treatment facilities in the Peoples Republic of China utilizing Ecofluid’s technology.


Our Business


China Wastewater, Inc. is an environmental management, manufacturing and technology company focused on wastewater treatment with a focus on water recycling. The Company was founded in 2009 with the sole purpose of launching the Ecofluid Systems Wastewater Treatment technology in China pursuant to its rights under a license agreement entered into with Ecofluids System, Inc.

The current market infrastructure in China is made up primarily of wastewater treatment sites in 1st and 2nd tier cities (i.e. cities with large populations, historical and cultural significance and well developed infrastructure) while 3rd and 4th tier cities (i.e. generally less developed inland provincial capitals, comparably developed non-capital cities and prefecture cities) have little or no wastewater treatment facilities.  The preliminary stage of business development for the Company will be focused on seeking to identify potential wastewater and water management projects in 3rd and 4th tier cities within targeted regions in China, which may include (1) Packaged Systems; (2) Municipal Wastewater Treatment; (3) Industrial Wastewater Treatment; and (4) Treatment for Water Reuse.  The Company believes that identifying such projects will enable it to accelerate the consolidation of its targeted regions in China.

The second stage of business development will be to position the company as a long term income producing utility through seeking to enter into BOO (BUILD, OPERATE, OWN) and BOT (BUILD, OPERATE, TRANSFER) contracts to build wastewater treatment and water management facilities to serve commercial and municipal opportunities in 3rd and 4th tier cities where little or no wastewater treatment is currently in place. Through this process, the Company’s mission is to seek to assist in implementing cost effective and efficient wastewater treatment plants for 3rd and 4th tier municipalities in China and for commercial operations within those municipalities.  


The Company has not yet sold or installed any wastewater treatment systems in China and currently remains in the development stage. The Company is presently seeking strategic partners in China who can assist it with the preliminary stage of business development related to seeking to identify potential wastewater and water management projects in 3rd and 4th tier cities within targeted regions in



4



China.  Although there is no assurance that any organization or entity which agrees to become a strategic partner of the Company will have the ability to identify wastewater projects for the Company, or will have any influence on the sale of wastewater systems, as of the date of this Form 8-K/A, the Company has entered into two (2) strategic alliance agreements.


On September 1, 2010, the Company entered into a Strategic Alliance Agreement with Renmin University of China School of Environment and Natural Resources (“Renmin”) (the “Renmin Alliance Agreement”) pursuant to which Renmin will assist the Company with its business operations in China for a period of 36 months.  The services to be provided by Renmin include assistance with identifying plant construction, acquisition, retrofitting and water reclamation opportunities for the Company from national, provincial and municipal governments and private residential and commercial projects requiring wastewater treatment and to assist the Company in development a plant acquisition profile for the Chinese market. Under the terms of the Renmin Alliance Agreement, the consideration for Renmin’s services is to be mutually agreed to by the parties at the time the Company obtains any contract for plant construction or other type of project as a result of a referral from Renmin.  Based on this provision, the Company has advised Renmin that it intends to propose payment of a fee of between 3-5% of the face amount of any contract received by the Company as a result of a referral from Renmin, and that in each case, the Company will give Renmin the option of agreeing to receive payment either in cash or through issuance of shares of the Company’s stock based on then current market value of the Company’s shares.   The foregoing description of the Renmin Alliance Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete text of the Renmin Alliance Agreement, which is filed as Exhibit 10.4 hereto and incorporated herein by reference.  


On November 11, 2010, the Company entered into a Strategic Alliance Agreement with Shandong Provincial Urban Construction Design Institute (“Shandong Institute”) (the “Shandong Institute Alliance Agreement”) pursuant to which Shandong Institute will assist the Company with its business operations in China by seeking to identify wastewater treatment plant acquisition or retrofitting of water reclamation projects in China for the Company, identifying and acquiring wastewater treatment plants in China for potential acquisition and sale by the Company, and recommending the Company’s USBF technology to potential customers in China.  The foregoing description of the Shandong Institute Alliance Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete text of the Shandong Institute Alliance Agreement, which is filed as Exhibit 10.5 hereto and incorporated herein by reference.


License Agreement and Purchase Agreement


License Agreement


As noted above, on May 20, 2009 China Wastewater and Ecofluid System, Inc. entered into a license agreement which was subsequently updated on December 23, 2010.  The parties updated and re-executed the license agreement on December 23, 2010 (the “License Agreement”).  Pursuant to the License Agreement Ecofluid Systems, Inc., granted an exclusive license to China Wastewater to manufacture and/or assemble, distribute, sell, advertise and promote wastewater treatment systems utilizing patented technology owned by Ecofulid Systems, Inc. throughout China.  Specifically, China Wastewater obtained the license to the following intellectual property owned by Ecofluid Systems, Inc. (collectively referred to as the “Licensed Technology”:


1) USBF


USBF is a Trademark registered to ECOfluid Systems, Inc. by the Canadian Intellectual Property Office (Reg. No. TMA563,928, File No. 1035867) and the United States Patent And Trademark Office (Reg.



5



No. 2,787,937) for mechanical, chemical and biological wastewater purification and treatment units: Wastewater purification and treatment systems comprised of upflow sludge basket filtration and single sludge dentrification and rheologic thickening.  IN Class 11 (U.S. CLS 13, 21, 23, 31 and 34).


2) United States Patent   Patent NO: US 7,270,750 B2, Date of Patent: Sep. 18, 2007


(54) CALRIFIER RECYCLE SYSTEM DESIGN FOR USE IN WASTEWATER TREATMENT SYSTEM (75)


A recycle system for use in a waste treatment facility utilizing either partially fluidized or combined fluidized bed filtration principles comprising the use of discrete passage ways to allow flow between the bottom of the clarifier and the aeration compartment, a baffle positioned between bub-blers in the aeration compartment and the clarifier openings, and a conduit positioned in the clarifier provide flow between the clarifier and the anoxic compartment that helps prevent the formation of settled sludge pockets, allows for almost complete evacuation of the solids during “no flow” conditions, and improves on other inefficient conditions inherent in treatment systems using prior art recycle designs.


Pursuant to the terms of the License Agreement, China Wastewater is obligated to pay a Sales Fee to Ecofluid equal to 12.5% of the hard costs incurred by China Wastewater or its customers related to construction of any wastewater treatment system using the Licensed Technology.  Under the terms of the License Agreement, “hard costs” are defined as meaning the purchase price paid to any third party manufacturers, assemblers, vendors or suppliers for equipment and hardware components of the system, excluding items such as concrete, piping, sewage collection equipment, soft costs and costs of installation.  After December 31, 2010, China Wastewater is required to pay a minimum annual sales fee of not less than $50,000 in order to maintain its exclusive territory.   In the event the minimum China Wastewater fails to pay the minimum annual sales fees for any year, Ecofluid then has the right, in its sole discretion, to terminate the License Agreement.  


The Sales Fee related to construction of any wastewater treatment system is payable to Ecofluid pro rata in conjunction with system purchase order progress payments.  Ecofluid has the right to periodically review the books and records maintained by China Wastewater related to system purchase order payments and payment of the Sales Fee, and to require China Wastewater to reimburse it for the costs it has incurred to complete the examination in the event it discloses a deficiency of more than 2% in payment of the Sales Fee.  In the event China Wastewater fails to pay any fees due in a timely manner, the unpaid amount shall accrue interest, compounded daily, from its original due date until paid in full, at a rate equal to the greater of 10% per annum or the maximum rate allowed by law.

    
The term of the License Agreement is through September 18, 2027, the expiration of the patent protecting the Licensed Technology.   However, the License Agreement may be terminated early by either party in the event of a material breach by the other party which is not cured within thirty days of it receipt of written notice describing the terms of the material breach.  Ecofluid also has the right to terminate the License Agreement immediately in the event China Wastewater sells or distributes a wastewater system outside its exclusive territory without the consent of Ecofluid, or in the event China Wastewater breaches the confidentiality provisions of the License Agreement.


The foregoing description of the License Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete text of the License Agreement, which is filed as Exhibit 10.2 hereto and incorporated herein by reference.

Purchase Agreement


On August 5, 2010 China Wastewater and Ecofluid System, Inc. entered into a non-exclusive purchase agreement.  The parties updated and re-executed the non-exclusive purchase agreement on December 23, 2010 (the “Purchase Agreement”).  Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, China Wastewater holds the non-exclusive right to acquire the USBF Trademark and the patent owned by Ecofluid for a purchase price of two million US Dollars (US $2,000,000) until March 31, 2011. The Company’s purchase of the USBF Trademark and the Ecofluid patent pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Agreement would have the effect of making the License Agreement null and void.   In that event, the Company would no longer be obligated to pay a Sales Fee to Ecofluid.


Government Regulation


Through its business operations, the Company will be subject to regulation by both the PRC central government and local governmental agencies located in the cities where the Company conducts business operations.  Within the People’s Republic of China, Renmin University of China School of Environment and Natural Resources (the “Peoples University of China”) is responsible for reviewing wastewater technology and advising the Central Chinese government regarding applicable standards.  The Company will be required to comply with applicable regulations regarding wastewater treatment facilities in China and intends to rely on The Peoples University of China to assist it in identifying regulations which are applicable to each potential project.


In China, the national discharge criteria for municipal wastewater treatment plants are set forth in governmental regulations including Integrated Wastewater Discharge Standard GB8978-1996, which was put into effect as of January 1, 1998. The standard was formulated for the purpose of implementing the Environmental Protection Law of the People’s Republic of China, the Law of the People’s Republic of China on Prevention and Control of Water Pollution and the Marine Environmental Protection Law of the People’s Republic of China controlling water pollution, protecting surface water like rivers, lakes, canals, reservoirs, oceans and ground water.  It is intended to maintain human health, eco-balance, national economic development and urban and rural development by establishing the upper limit for discharge of many pollutants and the total allowed water discharge for some industries.  It applies to all existing water treatment facilities for discharge management, environmental impact assessment, design, approval of facilities upon completion of construction, and management after being put into operation.


In addition to the foregoing, in the ordinary course of its business, the Company will be subject to numerous environmental laws and regulations covering compliance matters or imposing liability for the costs of, and damages resulting from, cleaning up sites, past spills, disposals and other releases of hazardous substances. Changes in environmental laws and regulations may have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position and results of operations. Any failure by the Company to adequately comply with such laws and regulations could subject the Company to significant future liabilities.


The approval process for wastewater treatment plants in China first requires providing information to the Department of Science, Technology and Standards of the Ministry of Environmental Protection of the People’s Republic of China to establish that the technology to be used meets the national discharge standards set forth in applicable governmental regulations.  The process also involves establishing that the technology to be used meets any applicable discharge standards established by provincial and local governments and authorities and obtaining necessary permits and approvals from such provincial and local governments and authorities.  As described above, on September 1, 2010, the Company entered into a Strategic Alliance Agreement with Renmin University of China School of Environment and Natural Resources (“The Peoples University of China”).  Pursuant to the terms of this agreement, the Peoples University of China agreed to review the Ecofluid technology and advise the



7



Company regarding its use in the China wastewater market and also agreed to assist the Company in identifying potential plant construction, acquisition, retrofitting and water reclamation opportunities from national, provincial, and municipal governments and from private residential and commercial projects in China.  In return, China Wastewater will provide access to any plants built in China to the Peoples University of China so they may study the technology for teaching purpose and advise the Company on potential improvements.  The Peoples University of China will receive remuneration for introductions and for consulting services at a fee to be mutually agreed to by the parties at the time the Company obtains any contract for plant construction or other type of project as a result of a referral from Renmin.  The Company estimates that the agreed upon fee will be between 3-5% of the face amount of any contract received by the Company as a result of a referral from Renmin, and that Renmin will have the option of agreeing to receive payment either in cash or through issuance of shares of the Company’s stock based on then current market value of the Company’s shares.   


Environmental Considerations


Untreated wastewater and sewage sludge create serious environmental and health hazards. These organic wastes contain harmful products and by-products which can leach into soils, waterways and ground waters causing contamination of soils and underground aquifers. The Company's technology can contribute to remediating environmental pollution problems from these sources, by safely treating wastewater for reuse and recycling.


Competition


The market for wastewater treatment facilities within China is competitive and rapidly evolving.   Wastewater treatment processes currently in use in China which compete with the USBF technology the Company has licensed from Ecofluid, are comprised of various types of biological nutrient removal (BNR) processes which apply alternative aerated and unaerated environments to remove nitrogen and phosphorous through the growth and metabolism of specific bacteria.   There are many competitors in the Chinese market currently offering various types of BNR systems including Enviroquip, WES Inc., Pollution Control Systems Inc., Smith & Loveless, Bonadiman Constructors, Redfox Environmental Services, Bio-Microbics Inc., Beckart Environmental Inc., Hydroxyl Systems, AWS American Wastewater Systems, Norweco, Paques and US Filter.  All of these competitors are more well established than the Company and it is likely that they also have greater financial resources and expertise than we do in research and development, manufacturing, testing, obtaining regulatory approvals and marketing approved products and technologies.


The Company intends to seek to compete in the wastewater management industry in China on the basis that it believes wastewater treatment facilities using its USBF technology have a competitive advantage over plants using the currently available BNR technology in relation to cost of installation, footprint, and operating cost, as well as in the ability to easily scale up modularly for future expansion.  In addition, the Company believes that its USBF system provides better performance than currently available BNR systems based on many factors including the fact that the USBF system is:


1.

Overall simpler process to operate

2.

Requires less electrical power

3.

Does not require computerized controls for operation

4.

No chemicals required for operation

5.

Less mechanical equipment to maintain

6.

Produces less sludge




8



In addition to the foregoing, the Company intends to seek to compete in the wastewater management industry in China on the basis of relationships it is able to establish.  Although some wastewater projects in China, including particularly those in larger Tier 1 cities, are based upon competitive bidding, the Company does not intend to make such projects the focus of its efforts.  Instead, the Company intends to focus its efforts on obtaining contracts for projects such as retrofits, upgrades, and construction of new plant facilities in smaller Tier 2 and 3 cities, and it believes that its ability to obtain such contracts will often be based on relationships it has been able to establish with recognized experts from universities and design institutes, and with mayors and other local authorities.   Although there is no assurance that the Company will be able to successfully compete on this basis, as part of this effort, the Company has entered into the Renmim Alliance Agreement and the Shandong Institute Alliance Agreement described above.   


Intellectual Property


Pursuant to the License Agreement, Ecofluid Systems, Inc. granted an exclusive license to China Wastewater to manufacture and/or assemble, distribute, sell, advertise and promote wastewater treatment systems utilizing patented technology owned by Ecofulid Systems, Inc. throughout China.  The License Agreement also grants China Wastewater a royalty-free license to use Econfluid’s “USBF” trademark throughout the term of the License Agreement in conjunction with its operations in China.  Other than the License, the Company does not own any intellectual property relating to wastewater treatment facilities.  The Ecofluid System, Inc. technology which the Company has licensed is not currently patented under Chinese patent laws and the “USBF” trademark is not currently registered under Chinese trademark laws.  Furthermore, the protection of intellectual property rights and proprietary information in China, including both patent and trademark rights, has historically not been as effective as in the United States or other countries.  For example, implementation and enforcement of PRC intellectual property-related laws have historically been deficient and ineffective and may be hampered by corruption and local protectionism. Policing unauthorized use of proprietary technology is difficult and expensive, and we might need to resort to litigation to enforce or defend patents or trademarks  issued to us or to determine the enforceability, scope and validity of our proprietary rights in such patents and trademarks.  The experience and capabilities of PRC courts in handling intellectual property litigation varies, and outcomes are unpredictable.  Further, such litigation may require significant expenditure of cash and management efforts and could harm our business, financial condition and results of operations.  To date we have not been involved in any significant intellectual property disputes, or encountered major difficulties in enforcing our intellectual property rights in China.


Research and Development.


The Company did not conduct any research and development during the fiscal years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009.


Employees


The Company has 5 employees in Vancouver, BC, Canada.    The Company has 4 consultants in China to assist in identifying potential opportunities.


Office Space


The Company leases office space in British Columbia, Canada under an operating lease.  The lease provides for a lease payment of $2,718 per month beginning April 1, 2011 expiring March 31, 2012.

Background


 We were formed as a Nevada corporation on June 20, 1997 under the name California Seasons Franchise Corporation.  In September, 1998, we changed our name to Silicon South, Inc., and began pursuing a business developing proprietary electronic components.  We developed three proprietary electronic components which we attempted to manufacture and market.  In April, 2002, we ceased operations and focused our efforts on seeking a business opportunity,


On November 9, 2010, we acquired all of the issued and outstanding common stock of China Wastewater, Inc, (formerly known as Alpha Wastewater, Inc) (“CWI” or “China Wastewater”), a Nevada corporation, in a share exchange transaction.   As a result of this share exchange transaction, CWI became our wholly-owned subsidiary, and the focus of our business operations will now be on the operations to be carried on through CWI.    


CWI is a development stage environmental management, manufacturing and technology company focused on wastewater treatment and water recycling.   CWI was founded in 2009 with the sole purpose of launching the Ecofluid Systems wastewater treatment technology in China.  As a result of our acquisition of CWI, our business operations will now be focused on launching the Ecofluid Systems wastewater treatment technology in China.


The following discussion regarding results of operation relates to the business operations of CWI.


Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

     

The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based on our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles.  The preparation of our consolidated financial statements requires us to

make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses.

     

On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates and judgments, including those related to revenue recognition, accrued expenses, fair valuation of inventory, valuation of any losses on purchase commitments, fair valuation of stock related to stock-based compensation and income taxes.  We base our estimates on authoritative literature and pronouncements, historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources.   Our actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.  The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our consolidated financial statements.  The results of our operations for any historical period are not necessarily indicative of the results of our operations for any other future period.

     

While our significant accounting policies are more fully described in Note 2 to our consolidated financial statements, we believe that the following accounting policies relating to revenue recognition, research and development costs, inventory valuation, valuation of purchase commitments, accrued expenses and deferred liabilities, stock-based compensation and income taxes are significant and, therefore, important to aid you in fully understanding and evaluating our reported financial results.


Basis of Presentation


The accompanying consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“US GAAP”).


Principles of Consolidation


The accompanying consolidated financial statements included all of the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary. All intercompany transactions have been eliminated.


Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents.


Foreign Currency Translation

 

Assets and liabilities of the Company’s operations are translated from its functional currency of the Canadian dollar into its reporting currency of the U.S. dollar at period-end exchange rates. Net exchange gains or losses resulting from such translation are excluded from net loss but are included in comprehensive income (loss) and accumulated in a separate component of stockholders' equity. Income and expenses are translated at the average exchange rate for the period.  Equity transactions are translated at historical rates.


Use of Estimates

 

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



13



from those estimates. Estimates and assumptions are reviewed periodically and the effects of revisions are reflected in the financial statements in the period they are determined.

 

Basic and Diluted Earnings (Loss) Per Share


Basic earnings (loss) per common share is computed by dividing income (loss) available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period of computation. Diluted earnings (loss) per share gives effect to all potential dilutive common shares outstanding during the period of compensation. The computation of diluted earnings (loss) per share does not assume conversion, exercise or contingent exercise of securities that would have an antidilutive effect on earnings. As of December 31, 2010 and 2009, the Company had no potentially dilutive securities that would affect the loss per share if they were to be dilutive.

 

Income Taxes

 

The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with ASC 740. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. A valuation allowance is provided for certain deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not that such tax assets will be realized through future operations.

 

Financial Instruments

 

As of December 31, 2010, the Company's financial instruments consist primarily of cash and restricted cash. Unless otherwise noted, it is management's opinion that the Company is not exposed to significant interest, currency or credit risks arising from these financial instruments.


Fair Value of Financial Instruments


Under the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures”, the Company is permitted to elect to measure financial instruments and certain other items at fair value, with the change in fair value recorded in earnings. We elected not to measure any eligible items using the fair value option. Consistent with Fair Value Measurement Topic of the FASB ASC, we implemented guidelines relating to the disclosure of our methodology for periodic measurement of our assets and liabilities recorded at fair market value.


Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. A three-tier fair value hierarchy prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (level 3 measurements). These tiers include:








 



14



-

Level 1, defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets;

-

Level 2, defined as inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable such as quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets or quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and

-

Level 3, defined as unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions, such as valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable.

 

The Company’s Level 1 assets primarily include cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash. Valuations are obtained from readily available pricing sources for market transactions involving identical assets or liabilities. The carrying amounts of accounts payable, amounts due to related parties, and shareholder loans, approximate their fair values due to the immediate or short-term maturities of these financial instruments.


The Company’s Level 2 assets and liabilities primarily include a promissory note issued to unrelated parties of the Company, which is discounted at market rate for similar instruments.


The Company has no level 3 assets or liabilities.


Comprehensive Income (Loss)


Total comprehensive income (loss) represents the net change in stockholders' equity during a period from sources other than transactions with stockholders and as such, includes net earnings (loss). For the Company, the components of other comprehensive income (loss) are the changes in the cumulative foreign currency translation adjustments and are recorded as components of stockholders' equity.


Stock-Based Compensation


In October 1995, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation” (ASC 718). ASC 718 prescribes accounting and reporting standards for all stock-based compensation plans, including employee stock options, restricted stock, employee stock purchase plans and stock appreciation rights. ASC 718 requires compensation expense to be recorded using the new fair value method.  The Company has opted for the disclosure provisions of ASC 718.


Newly Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

 

Management does not expect the future adoption of any recently issued accounting pronouncement to have a significant impact on its financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

We are not aware of any known trends, demands, commitments, events or uncertainties that will result in or that are reasonably likely to result in our liquidity increasing or decreasing in any material way.

The Company has entered into an agreement with Ecofluid Systems, Inc. granting an “Exclusive License” for China.  Upon agreement of the parties, the license may also be expanded in the future to include other S.E. Asian countries. Pursuant to the terms of this license agreement, the Company is obligated to pay a Sales Fee to Ecofluid equal to 12.5% of the hard costs incurred by China Wastewater or its customers related to construction of any wastewater treatment system using the Licensed Technology.  Under the terms of the License Agreement, “hard costs” are defined as meaning the purchase price paid to any third party manufacturers, assemblers, vendors or suppliers for equipment and hardware components of the system, excluding items such as concrete, piping, sewage collection equipment, soft costs and costs of installation.  After December 31, 2010, China Wastewater is required to pay a minimum annual sales fee of not less than $50,000 in order to maintain its exclusive territory.   In the event the minimum China Wastewater fails to pay the minimum annual sales fees for any year, Ecofluid then has the right, in its sole discretion, to terminate the License Agreement.  


The Sales Fee related to construction of any wastewater treatment system is payable to Ecofluid pro rata in conjunction with system purchase order progress payments.  Ecofluid has the right to periodically review the books and records maintained by China Wastewater related to system purchase order payments and payment of the Sales Fee, and to require China Wastewater to reimburse it for the costs it has incurred to complete the examination in the event it discloses a deficiency of more than 2% in payment of the Sales Fee.  In the event China Wastewater fails to pay any fees due in a timely manner, the unpaid amount shall accrue interest, compounded daily, from its original due date until paid in full, at a rate equal to the greater of 10% per annum or the maximum rate allowed by law.

     

The term of the License Agreement is through September 18, 2027, the expiration of the patent protecting the Licensed Technology.   However, the License Agreement may be terminated early by either party in the event of a material breach by the other party which is not cured within thirty days of it receipt of written notice describing the terms of the material breach.  Ecofluid also has the right to terminate the License Agreement immediately in the event China Wastewater sells or distributes a wastewater system outside its exclusive territory without the consent of Ecofluid, or in the event China Wastewater breaches the confidentiality provisions of the License Agreement.  


We will require substantial additional capital resources in order to commence operations pursuant to the terms of the Exclusive License, and there is no assurance such funds will be available.  In the event such funds are not available, we will be required to delay, reduce the scope of, or abandon our business operations under the terms of the Exclusive License.

On August 5, 2010, China Wastewater and Ecofluid System, Inc. entered into a non-exclusive purchase agreement.  The parties updated and re-executed the non-exclusive purchase agreement on December 23, 2010 (the “Purchase Agreement”).  Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, China Wastewater holds the non-exclusive right to acquire the USBF Trademark and the patent owned by Ecofluid for a purchase price of two million US Dollars (US $2,000,000) until March 31, 2011.  The Company’s purchase of the USBF Trademark and the Ecofluid patent pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Agreement would have the effect of making the License Agreement null and void. In that event, the Company would no longer be obligated to pay a Sales Fee to Ecofluid.


On July 9, 2010, China Wastewater entered into a funding agreement (the “Funding Agreement”) with Weibiao Xu and Associates, a Republic of China Funding Group (“CFG”).  Under the terms of the Funding Agreement, CFG subscribed for the purchase of a total of 4,800,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at a price of $0.25 per share (an aggregate subscription of US$1,200,000) on or before November 10, 2010, and was granted an option to purchase an additional 3,333,334 shares at a price of $0.30 per (US$1,000,000) on or before November 30, 2010.  None of the options have been exercised, and the expiration date of the options has been extended to April 30, 2011.  By Addendum dated October 18, 2010, the Funding Agreement was amended to specify that the subscription from CFG would be treated as being a subscription for purchase of shares of Silicon South, Inc., following closing under the Reorganization Agreement with China Wastewater, Inc The Company intends to amend its articles of incorporation to increase the number of authorized shares of common stock from 50,000,000 to 150,000,000, and intends to issue shares to CFG pursuant to the Funding Agreement as soon as reasonably possible following the effective date of such amendment.     


In accordance with the terms of the Funding Agreement and the Addendum, CFG advanced a total of $1,200,000 in October, 2010.  Of this amount, a total of $1,000,000 is currently being held in escrow by the Company for the benefit of CFG, and the parties have agreed that following issuance of Company shares to CFG pursuant to the terms of the Funding Agreement, such funds will be available for use by the Company as part payment of purchase price payable under the Non-Exclusive Purchase Agreement with Ecofluid for purchase of the USBF Trademark and the Ecofluid patent.  CFG has agreed that the remaining $200,000 of the funds it advanced pursuant to the Funding Agreement and Addendum may be used by the Company for administrative purposes prior to issuance of Company shares to CFG pursuant to the terms of the Funding Agreement.  In order to account for this $200,000 advance, the parties have elected to characterize this transaction as a non-interest bearing loan, due and payable on demand, and convertible at the election of the Company into shares of common stock at a price of $0.25 per share.  The Funding Agreement with CFG, the Addendum to the Funding Agreement and the promissory note representing the $200,000 advance, are attached hereto as Exhibit 10.7.


Pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Agreement described above, we have the right to purchase the USBF Trademark and the Ecofluid patent for a purchase price of two million US Dollars (US$2,000,000) until March 31, 2011.   Other than this non-exclusive right to purchase, we do not have any other capital commitments at the present time.  We will require substantial additional capital resources to commence business operations or to exercise our right non-exclusive right to purchase under the Purchase Agreement described above.  We may raise additional capital through public or private equity offerings, debt financings, corporate collaborations or other means.  We may attempt to raise additional capital due to favorable market conditions or other strategic considerations even if we have sufficient funds for planned operations.  To the extent that we raise additional funds by issuance of equity securities, our stockholders will experience dilution, and debt financings, if available, may involve restrictive covenants or may otherwise constrain our financial flexibility.  To the extent that we raise additional funds through collaborative arrangements, it may be necessary to relinquish some rights to our intellectual property or grant licenses on terms that are not favorable to us.  In addition, payments made by potential collaborators or licensors generally will depend upon our achievement of negotiated



18



development and regulatory milestones.  Failure to achieve these milestones would harm our future capital position. Additional financing may not be available on acceptable terms, if at all.  Capital may become difficult or impossible to obtain due to poor market or other conditions outside of our control.  If at any time sufficient capital is not available, either through existing capital resources or through raising additional funds, we may be required to delay, reduce the scope of, eliminate or divest one or more of our research projects or operations.


Segment Information

     

We have determined that we are principally engaged in one operating segment.  Our product candidates are primarily wastewater treatments.


Recent Accounting Pronouncements


Management does not expect the future adoption of any recently issued accounting pronouncement to have a significant impact on its financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.


Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

     

Since inception, we have not engaged in any off-balance sheet activities, including the use of structured finance, special purpose entities or variable interest entities.


Effects of Inflation

     

Because our assets are, to an extent, liquid in nature, they are not significantly affected by inflation.  However, the rate of inflation affects such expenses as employee compensation, office space leasing costs and research and development charges, which may not be readily recoverable during the period of time that we are bringing the product candidates to market.  To the extent inflation results in rising interest rates and has other adverse effects on the market, it may adversely affect our consolidated financial condition and results of operations.

SADLER, GIBB & ASSOCIATES, LLC


REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM


To the Board of Directors

Silicon South, Inc.

(A Development Stage Company)


We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Silicon South, Inc. as of December 31, 2010, and the related consolidated statement of operations, stockholders’ equity (deficit) and cash flows for the year then ended.  These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.  


We conducted our audit in accordance with the 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 also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.


In our opinion the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Silicon South, Inc. as of December 31, 2010, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the year then ended, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.


The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 3 to the financial statements, the Company had accumulated losses of $620,834 and $494,146 as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively which raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans concerning these matters are also described in Note 3. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION


Silicon South, Inc. (“Silicon”) was formed in the name of California Seasons Franchise Corporation under the laws of the State of Nevada on June 20, 1997.  From inception to April 2002 the principal business activity of Silicon was developing three proprietary electronic components to manufacture and market. After April 2002, Silicon had no operations and focused on seeking a business opportunity.


On November 9, 2010 Silicon completed a share exchange agreement with China Wastewater, Inc. (“China”), a technology company formed under the laws of the State of Nevada.  China owns an exclusive license to manufacture, assemble, advertise, promote, sell, and distribute a patented wastewater purification system in the People’s Republic of China.  


Pursuant to the share exchange agreement, China assumed Silicon’s outstanding debt of $130,000 at November 9, 2010 and Silicon issued 40,000,000 shares of restricted common stock in exchange for 100 percent of the 40,000,000 outstanding shares of China, which shares represented 84.54 percent of the combined company (the “Company”)’s outstanding common stock after the transaction.


As the result of the transaction China obtained control of Silicon, thereby is the accounting acquirer in the transaction, and the transaction was recognized as the reverse acquisition of Silicon by China.


NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Basis of Presentation


The accompanying consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“US GAAP”).


Principles of Consolidation


The accompanying consolidated financial statements included all of the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary. All intercompany transactions have been eliminated.


Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents.


Foreign Currency Translation

 

Assets and liabilities of the Company’s operations are translated from its functional currency of the Canadian dollar into its reporting currency of the U.S. dollar at period-end exchange rates. Net exchange gains or losses resulting from such translation are excluded from net loss but are included in comprehensive income (loss) and accumulated in a separate component of stockholders' equity. Income and expenses are translated at the average exchange rate for the period.  Equity transactions are translated at historical rates.









27





NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)



Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the 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. Estimates and assumptions are reviewed periodically and the effects of revisions are reflected in the financial statements in the period they are determined.

 

Basic and Diluted Earnings (Loss) Per Share


Basic earnings (loss) per common share is computed by dividing income (loss) available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period of computation. Diluted earnings (loss) per share gives effect to all potential dilutive common shares outstanding during the period of compensation. The computation of diluted earnings (loss) per share does not assume conversion, exercise or contingent exercise of securities that would have an antidilutive effect on earnings. As of December 31, 2010 and 2009, the Company had no potentially dilutive securities that would affect the loss per share if they were to be dilutive.

 

Income Taxes

 

The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with ASC 740. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. A valuation allowance is provided for certain deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not that such tax assets will be realized through future operations.

 

Financial Instruments

 

As of December 31, 2010, the Company's financial instruments consist primarily of cash and restricted cash. Unless otherwise noted, it is management's opinion that the Company is not exposed to significant interest, currency or credit risks arising from these financial instruments.








28





NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)



Fair Value of Financial Instruments


Under the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures”, the Company is permitted to elect to measure financial instruments and certain other items at fair value, with the change in fair value recorded in earnings. We elected not to measure any eligible items using the fair value option. Consistent with Fair Value Measurement Topic of the FASB ASC, we implemented guidelines relating to the disclosure of our methodology for periodic measurement of our assets and liabilities recorded at fair market value.


Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. A three-tier fair value hierarchy prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (level 3 measurements). These tiers include:

 

-

Level 1, defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets;

-

Level 2, defined as inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable such as quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets or quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and

-

Level 3, defined as unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions, such as valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable.

 

The Company’s Level 1 assets primarily include cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash. Valuations are obtained from readily available pricing sources for market transactions involving identical assets or liabilities. The carrying amounts of accounts payable, amounts due to related parties, and shareholder loans, approximate their fair values due to the immediate or short-term maturities of these financial instruments.


The Company’s Level 2 assets and liabilities primarily include a promissory note issued to unrelated parties of the Company, which is discounted at market rate for similar instruments.


The Company has no level 3 assets or liabilities.


Comprehensive Income (Loss)


Total comprehensive income (loss) represents the net change in stockholders' equity during a period from sources other than transactions with stockholders and as such, includes net earnings (loss). For the Company, the components of other comprehensive income (loss) are the changes in the cumulative foreign currency translation adjustments and are recorded as components of stockholders' equity.


Stock-Based Compensation


In October 1995, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation” (ASC 718). ASC 718 prescribes accounting and reporting standards for all stock-based compensation plans, including employee stock options, restricted stock, employee stock purchase plans and stock appreciation rights. ASC 718 requires compensation expense to be recorded using the new fair value method.  The Company has opted for the disclosure provisions of ASC 718.



29





NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)


Newly Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

 

Management does not expect the future adoption of any recently issued accounting pronouncement to have a significant impact on its financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.


Reclassifications


Certain comparative figures have been reclassified to conform to the current year’s presentation.


NOTE 3 - GOING CONCERN


The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company has accumulated losses of $620,834 and $494,146 as of December 31, 2010 and 2009 respectively. The Company has earned no revenues since inception. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company’s continuation as a going concern is dependent on its ability to meet its obligations, to obtain additional financing as may be required and ultimately to attain profitability. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.


NOTE 4 – RESTRICTED CASH


Restricted cash of $1,000,000 as at December 31, 2010 consists of subscriptions received for purchasing 4,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at $0.25 per share. The funds are not available to the Company until the issuance of the related shares upon the Company’s acquisition of the exclusive worldwide license excluding North America to manufacture, assemble, advertise, promote, sell, and distribute a patented wastewater purification system.


NOTE 5 – RELATED PARTY BALANCES


A private Nevada company wholly owned by two directors of the Company made payments on behalf of China since the inception of its operation in 2007.


During the year ended December 31, 2009, the Company issued 40,000,000 shares of its common stock valued at $518,356 to extinguish the outstanding balance owed to the related party, resulting in $Nil balance owed to this related party at December 31, 2009.


During the year ended December 31, 2010 the related party continued to make payments on behalf of the Company.  On July 15, 2010 the Company converted the outstanding balance of $87,285 and any future advances to the Company into promissory note, which is unsecured, non-interest bearing and repayable by December 31, 2011. As at December 31, 2010 the balance of the promissory note was $154,199.


As at December 31, 2010 the Company had due to other related parties of $8,644 incurred by Silicon prior to the completion of the share exchange agreement on November 9, 2010. The amount is unsecured, non-interest bearing and has no fixed term of repayment.




30





NOTE 6 – PROMISSORY NOTE - UNRELATED PARTIES


On November 10, 2010 the Company issued a promissory note of $200,000, which is unsecured, non-interest bearing and payable by June 30, 2011. The promissory note was discounted at imputed interest rate of 12 percent per annum (8.75 percent points over Wall Street prime rate of 3.25 percent). From the inception of the promissory note to December 31, 2010 imputed interest expense of $3,176 was recorded.


NOTE 7 – STOCK SUBSCRIPTION RECEIVED


During the year ended December 31, 2010 the Company received gross proceeds of $1,200,000 as subscriptions for 4,800,000 of the Company’s common stock at $0.25 per share. The proceeds were restricted until the issuance of the related shares upon the Company’s acquisition of the exclusive worldwide license excluding North America to manufacture, assemble, advertise, promote, sell, and distribute a patented wastewater purification system.


On November 10, 2010 the Company converted $200,000 of the proceeds into a promissory note, resulting in $1,000,000 as subscriptions received for common shares.


NOTE 8 - STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY


Authorized


50,000,000 Common shares with par value of $0.001


Issued and Outstanding


On October 7, 2009, upon incorporation of China, China issued 75,000 shares of its common stock valued at $75 to a related party as repayment for amounts owed to the related party.  On December 31, 2009, the Company issued 39,925,000 shares of its common stock valued at $518,281 to a related party as repayment for the full outstanding balance owed to the related party.


On November 9, 2010, the effective date of the share exchange agreement, Silicon had 7,315,500 shares of its common stock issued and outstanding.  Upon completion of the share exchange agreement Silicon issued 40,000,000 shares of restricted common stock in exchange for all of China’s 40,000,000 shares issued and outstanding.  As at December 31, 2010 the Company had 47,315,500 shares of its common stock issued and outstanding.


Stock Options


On July 25, 2010 Silicon granted 2,475,000 options to a consultant, with the options exercisable into the Company’s common stock at $0.001 per share, expiring four business days following the closing of the share exchange agreement.  The options were exercised on November 15, 2011. The related shares were not issued as at December 31, 2010 and the date of this filing.




31





NOTE 9 – INCOME TAXES


The Company follows Statement of ASC 740 "Accounting for Income Taxes." Deferred income taxes reflect the net effect of (a) temporary difference between carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial purposes and the amounts used for income tax reporting purposes, and (b) net operating loss carryforwards. No net provision for refundable Federal income tax has been made in the accompanying statement of loss because no recoverable taxes were paid previously. Similarly, no deferred tax asset attributable to the net operating loss carryforward has been recognized, as it is not deemed likely to be realized.

 

The provision for refundable Federal income tax consists of the following:


 

December 31,

 

December 31,

  

2010

 

2009

Refundable federal income tax attributable to:

Less, change in valuation allowance

 (47,000)

 

 (89,000)

Net refundable amount

$                      -)

 

$                    -)


The main differences between the statutory rate of 34 percent and the Company’s effective rate at zero percent are non-deductible stock-based compensation and the change in valuation allowance.


The cumulative tax effect at the expected rate of 34 percent of significant items comprising our net deferred tax amount is as follows:


 

December 31,

$                    -)


At December 31, 2010, the Company had an unused net operating loss carryover approximating $960,000 that is available to offset future taxable income, which expires beginning in 2017.


NOTE 10 – RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS


During the year ended December 31, 2010, the Company paid total consulting fees of $8,500 (2009 - $Nil) to two directors of the Company.


During the year ended December 31, 2010, the Company paid $Nil salaries (2009 - $177,000) to two directors of the Company.


The above related party transactions were in the normal course of operations and are recorded at their exchange amounts.

ITEM 9. 

CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING  AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE


There have been no changes or disagreements with our accountants on accounting and financial disclosure.


ITEM 9A

CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES


(a)        Disclosure Controls and Procedures


We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that we file with the SEC under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive and financial officers, as appropriate, to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure. As required by SEC Rule 15d-15(b), we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive and financial officers, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report.  


Based on the foregoing, our principal executive and financial officers concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are not effective to ensure the information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed and reported properly within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms.


The management and board of directors strive to remedy the deficiencies by thoroughly reviewing the requirements for filings and the contents of filings. We have consulted accounting and legal experts on disclosure requirements for this filing. In addition, we are in the process of engaging financial and legal experts internally to ensure we will meet all future reporting and filing requirements timely.


Internal Control Over Financial Reporting


(b)

Management's Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting


Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting.  The Company's internal control system was designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation and fair presentation of its consolidated financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.


The Company’s management, with the participation of the chief executive officer and chief financial officer, carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the Company's internal controls over financial reporting, using the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control-Integrated Framework, (as defined in the Exchange Act) Rules 13a-15(3) and 15-d-15(3) as of the end of the period covered by this report (the “Evaluation Date”). Based on management’s evaluation, we concluded our internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of December 31, 2010 due to inadequate segregation of duties.


The management concludes that the impact of inadequate segregation of duties is immaterial due to the fact that we have a small operation with limited transactions, all transactions are approved by the management and all material transactions are approved by the board of directors.




34





The Company plans to take steps to enhance and improve the design of its internal controls over financial reporting. During the period covered by this annual report, the Company has not been able to remediate the weaknesses identified above. To remediate such weaknesses, the Company is in the process of appointing additional qualified personnel to address inadequate segregation of duties, and adopt sufficient written policies and procedures for accounting and financial reporting. These remediation efforts are largely dependent upon securing additional financing to cover the costs of implementing the changes required. If the Company is unsuccessful in securing such funds, remediation efforts may be adversely affected.


Notwithstanding the foregoing, all internal control systems, no matter how well designed, have inherent limitations. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective may not prevent or detect misstatements and can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation. 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.


(c)           Attestation Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting


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 temporary rules of the SEC that permit the Company to provide only management's report in this annual report.


 (d)

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting


During the period covered by this annual report, despite the change in management and board of directors, there were no changes in the Company's internal control system over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting.

ITEM 13.

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS, AND DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCE


China  Wastewater issued 40,000,000 shares of its stock to Asiamera for debt extinguishment in the amount of $518,356.  Brian Hauff and Shengfeng Justin Wang are equal owners of Asiamera.  Asiamera allocated 26,750,000 of the China Wastewater shares to approximately 10 people as consideration for consulting fee, services and/or debt extinguishment.


A related party, Asiamera Capital, Inc., has been paying all the expenses of the Company since 2007.  As of December 31, 2008, the Company had recorded $223,568 as due to a related party. During 2009, Asiamera advanced an additional $294,788 on the Company’s behalf, and during 2009, the Company issued Asiamera common stock in the amount of $518,356 for the extinguishment of the total liability owed to Asiamera at that time.   As the Company had no readily determinable value at the time of issuance, the shares were valued at par ($0.001), and the remaining value of the debt was recorded to additional paid-in capital.   Subsequent to December 31, 2009, Asiamera continue to advance funds for payment of liabilities on the Company’s behalf.  As of September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, the Company was obligated to Asiamera in the amount of $93,970 and $Nil, respectively.  The outstanding amounts owed to Asiamera are interest free.  The outstanding unpaid advances by Asiamera as of July 15, 2010, are evidenced by a promissory note, a copy of which is attached to this report on Form 8-K/A as Exhibit 10.6.  


Aside from the foregoing, there were no material transactions, or series of similar transactions, during our Company’s last fiscal year, or any currently proposed transactions, or series of similar transactions, to which our Company was or is to be a party, in which the amount involved exceeded the lesser of $120,000 or one percent of the average of the small business issuer’s total assets at year-end for the last three completed fiscal years and in which any director, executive officer or any security holder who is known to us to own of record or beneficially more than five percent of any class of our common stock, or any member of the immediate family of any of the foregoing persons, had an interest.


Director Independence


The NASDAQ Stock Market has instituted director independence guidelines that have been adopted by the Securities & Exchange Commission.  These guidelines provide that a director is deemed “independent” only if the board of directors affirmatively determines that the director has no relationship with the company which, in the board’s opinion, would interfere with the director’s exercise of independent judgment in carrying out his or her responsibilities.  Significant stock ownership will not, by itself, preclude a board finding of independence.


For NASDAQ Stock Market listed companies, the director independence rules list six types of disqualifying relationships that preclude an independence filing.  The Company’s board of directors may not find independent a director who:


1.

is an employee of the company or any parent or subsidiary of the company;


2.

accepts, or who has a family member who accepts, more than $60,000 per year in payments from the company or any parent or subsidiary of the company other than (a) payments from board or committee services; (b) payments arising solely from investments in the company’s securities; (c) compensation paid to a family member who is a non-executive employee of the company’ (d) benefits under a tax qualified retirement plan or non-discretionary compensation; or (e) loans to directors and executive officers permitted under Section 13(k) of the Exchange Act;




41





3.

is a family member of an individual who is employed as an executive officer by the company or any parent or subsidiary of the company;


4.

is, or has a family member who is, a partner in, or a controlling shareholder or an executive officer of, any organization to which the company made, or from which the company received, payments for property or services that exceed 5% of the recipient’s consolidated gross revenues for that year, or $200,000, whichever is more, other than (a) payments arising solely from investments in the company’s securities or (b) payments under non-discretionary charitable contribution matching programs;


5.

is employed, or who has a family member who is employed, as an executive officer of another company whose compensation committee includes any executive officer of the listed company; or


6.

is, or has a family member who is, a current partner of the company’s outside auditor, or was a partner or employee of the company’s outside auditor who worked on the company’s audit.


Based upon the foregoing criteria, our Board of Directors has determined that Brian Hauff is not an independent director under these rules because he also serves as the Company’s CEO, and that Shengfeng Justin Wang is not an independent director under these rules because he also serves as the Company’s CFO.
