FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS
The following discussion, in addition to the other information contained in this
Current Report, should be considered carefully in evaluating our prospects. This
report (including without limitation the following factors that may affect
operating results) contains forward-looking statements regarding us and our
business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects. Words such
as "expects," "anticipates," "intends," "plans," "believes," "seeks,"
"estimates" and similar expressions or variations of such words are intended to
identify forward-looking statements, but are not the exclusive means of

elsewhere in this report. Readers are urged not to place undue reliance on these
forward-looking statements which speak only as of the date of this report. We
undertake no obligation to revise or update any forward-looking statements in
order to reflect any event or circumstance that may arise after the date of this
report.
As used in this current report and unless otherwise indicated, the terms "we",
"us", "our", the "Company" and "X-Change" refer to The X-Change Corporation.
ITEM 5.06 CHANGE IN SHELL COMPANY STATUS
Management has determined that, as of the date of this Current Report, given the
current level of our operations, the Company is no longer a shell corporation as
that term is defined in Rule 405 of the Securities Act and Rule 12b-2 of the
Exchange Act. Therefore, the Company is filing this report to disclose such
information as would be required if the registrant were filing a general form
for registration of securities on Form 10.

FORM 10 DISCLOSURE
ITEM 1. BUSINESS
CORPORATE HISTORY
GENERAL
The X-Change Corporation (Company) was incorporated under the laws of the State
of Delaware on February 5, 1969 and changed its corporate domicile to the State
of Nevada on October 4, 2000. We were originally organized to seek merger and/or
acquisition candidates and engaged in various transactions since our inception.
As of December 31, 2008, we had disposed of all assets and operations.
Our principal office is located at 12655 North Central Expressway, Suite 1000,
Dallas, Texas 75243 and our telephone number is (972) 386-7350. Currently, the
Company has no known exposures to any current or proposed climate change
legislation which could negatively impact the Company's operations or require
capital expenditures to become compliant.
RECENT ACQUISITION OF ASSETS
On May 31, 2011, the Company acquired a casino ship, the "MV Texas Star Casino"
("Texas Star"), from CJP Entertainment, LLC, in exchange for the issuance of two
million (2,000,000) shares of the Company's common stock, in restricted form.
The Texas Star is currently berthed in Freeport, Texas. On June 6, 2010, the
Company has also entered into a Letter of Intent ("LOI") with George J. Akmon
and Jerry Monday & Associates, LLC (collectively referred to as "Operators") to
operate the Texas Star outside the nine mile territorial waters of Texas, in
international waters, as a casino ship.
The Texas Star is registered in Panama and was built in 1977 in Louisiana by
Halter Marine, Inc. In 1986, it was converted to a day cruise casino vessel. It
can carry 495 passengers and it 47.2 meters long (155.7 feet). It is a twin
diesel, twin screw, twin rudder welded steel passenger ship. The ship as
originally built was an ocean going, heavy duty oil rig supply vessel so it is
built to a very high standard. A valuation prepared in 2006 valued the ship at
$7,980,000 and the casino equipment at $2,000,000. The Company is presently
evaluating the condition of the ship and estimating what repairs and upgrades
will be required in order to commence operating the ship on a regular schedule.
EMPLOYEES
The Company currently has no employees. Management of the Company expects to use
consultants, attorneys and accountants as necessary. As the Company prepares to
launch its operation of the gaming ship, the Company will engage employees to
run its operations.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
RISK FACTORS
RISKS RELATING TO OUR COMPANY AND BUSINESS
OUR OPERATIONS ARE IN THE DEVELOPMENT STAGE AND HAVE NOT GENERATED ANY REVENUES
TO DATE. THERE IS NO GUARANTEE THAT WE WILL EVER BE ABLE TO MARKET AND OPERATE
THE TEXAS STAR.
There can be no assurance that our marketing and sales efforts will be
successful, that we will be able to sell our gambling excursions or operate
profitably or that our cruises will be successfully marketed in the future. We
currently do not expect to receive significant revenues from our operations over
the next year.
WE HAVE NO TRACK RECORD THAT WOULD PROVIDE A BASIS FOR ASSESSING OUR ABILITY TO
CARRY ON SUCCESSFUL BUSINESS ACTIVITIES. WE MAY NOT BE SUCCESSFUL IN
IMPLEMENTING OUR BUSINESS OBJECTIVES.
The revenue potential of our proposed business and operations is unproven and
the lack of an operating history makes it difficult to evaluate the future
prospects of our business. There is nothing at this time on which to base an
assumption that our business operations will prove to be successful or that we
will ever be able to operate profitably. We have no track record of successful
business activities, strategic decision-making by management, revenue
production, or other factors that would allow an investor to assess the
likelihood that we will be successful in marketing and sales of our cruises.
There is a substantial risk that we will not be successful in implementing our
business plan, or if initially successful, in thereafter generating any
operating revenues or in achieving profitable operations.
OUR AUDITORS HAVE EXPRESSED SUBSTANTIAL DOUBT ABOUT OUR ABILITY TO CONTINUE AS A
GOING CONCERN. IF WE DO NOT HAVE SUFFICIENT FUNDING, WE MAY HAVE TO SUSPEND OR
CEASE OPERATIONS WITHIN TWELVE MONTHS.
Our audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2010 were
prepared using the assumption that we will continue our operations as a going
concern. We were incorporated in 1969 and do not have a history of earnings in
recent years. As a result, our independent accountants in their audit report
have expressed substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going
4
concern. Continued operations are dependent on our ability to complete equity or
debt financing activities or to generate profitable operations. Such activities
may not be available or may not be available on reasonable terms. We believe
that if we do not have sufficient funding, we may have to suspend or cease
operations within twelve months. Therefore, we may be unable to continue
operations in the future as a going concern. If we cannot continue as a viable
entity, our stockholders may lose some or all of their investment in the
Company.
WE ARE A SMALL COMPANY WITH LIMITED RESOURCES COMPARED TO SOME OF OUR CURRENT
AND POTENTIAL COMPETITORS AND WE MAY NOT BE ABLE TO COMPETE EFFECTIVELY AND
INCREASE MARKET SHARE.
The market for our operations is highly competitive and although we believe our
operations will feature top-of-the-line casino gambling excursions and operate
in a geographically advantageous location, we cannot guarantee that these
excursions are enough to effectively capture a significant enough market share
to successfully launch and sustain our current or future operations. Our current
and potential competitors may have longer operating histories, significantly
greater resources and name recognition, and a larger base of customers than we
have. Our competitors may also be able to adopt more aggressive pricing policies
and devote greater resources to the development, marketing and sale of their
products and services than we can. To be competitive, we must invest significant
resources in marketing, promotion, sales, and customer support. We may not have
sufficient resources to make these investments or to develop and expand our
services in a manner necessary to be competitive, which in turn will cause our
business to suffer and restrict our profitability potential.
PROBLEMS WITH THE QUALITY AND PRICE OF OUR EXCURSIONS COULD RESULT IN DECREASES
IN REVENUE, UNEXPECTED EXPENSES AND LOSS OF MARKET SHARE.
We plan to market and sell our cruise to consumers looking for a daily cruise
with the opportunity to gamble without having to travel out of the state of
Texas. There are presently no daily gambling cruises operating from Texas ports.
Previous casino ships operations in Texas have not been successful and have
either ceased operations or never commenced. The previous owners of the Texas
Star were unable to commence operations as planned. There can be no assurances
that the excursions we plan to offer will appeal to a large enough customer base
for us to sustain our operations or even to commence operations.
THE PRODUCTS WE INTEND TO DISTRIBUTE MAY NOT GAIN MARKET ACCEPTANCE, WHICH WOULD
PREVENT US FROM ACHIEVING SALES AND MARKET SHARE.
The development of a successful market for our technologies may be adversely
affected by a number of factors, some of which are beyond our control,
including:
5
* our failure to offer services that compete favorably against other
similar services on the basis of cost, quality and performance;
* our failure to market and deliver our services effectively;
* our failure to create an entertaining experience for our customers;
* our failure to meet the public's demand for excursions at prices and
frequency that are compatible with the public's demand; and
* our failure to develop and maintain successful relationships with
customers, investors and strategic business partners.
If the services we intend to provide fail to gain market acceptance, we will be
unable to achieve sales and market share.
Regulatory changes in the gaming industry could render our services illegal and
obsolete, which would prevent us from continuing operations.
CONSUMER SPENDING ON LEISURE ACTIVITIES IS AFFECTED BY CHANGES IN THE ECONOMY
AND CONSUMER TASTES, AS WELL AS OTHER FACTORS THAT ARE DIFFICULT TO PREDICT AND
BEYOND OUR CONTROL. DECREASES IN CONSUMER SPENDING ADVERSELY AFFECTING THE
GAMING INDUSTRY COULD HARM OUR BUSINESS, AND UNFAVORABLE ECONOMIC CONDITIONS
HAVE IMPACTED AND COULD CONTINUE TO NEGATIVELY IMPACT THE PLAY LEVELS OF OUR
CUSTOMERS.
The demand for entertainment and leisure activities tends to be highly sensitive
to consumers' disposable incomes, and thus can be affected by changes in the
economy and consumer tastes, both of which are difficult to predict and beyond
our control. Unfavorable changes in general economic conditions, including
recession, economic slowdown, sustained high levels of unemployment, and higher
fuel or other transportation costs, may reduce disposable income of casino
patrons or result in fewer patrons visiting casinos. As a result, we cannot
ensure that demand for our products or services will remain constant. Continued
adverse developments affecting economies throughout the world, including a
general tightening of the availability of credit, increasing interest rates,
increasing energy costs, acts of war or terrorism, transportation disruptions,
natural disasters, declining consumer confidence, sustained high levels of
unemployment or significant declines in the stock market, as well as concerns
regarding epidemics and the spread of contagious diseases, could lead to a
further reduction in discretionary spending on leisure activities such as
gambling. Any significant or prolonged decrease in consumer spending on leisure
activities could greatly affect the gaming industry, causing some or all of our
customers to decrease spending which would adversely affect our business.
6
The gaming industry is intensely competitive. We face competition from a number
of companies, some of whom have greater resources, and if we are unable to
compete effectively, our business could be negatively impacted.
SECURITY VULNERABILITIES IN OUR SERVICES COULD LEAD TO REDUCED REVENUES OR TO
LIABILITY CLAIMS.
Any systems failure or compromise of our security that results in the
malfunction of any of our equipment, causes any injuries or harm to our
passengers or to other ships and their passengers and cargo, that affects the
gaming results of any of our customers or that results in the disclosure of any
of our customers' private or financial information could seriously harm our
reputation and brand and, therefore, our business. A security or privacy breach
may:
* Cause our customers to lose confidence in our services;
* Deter consumers from using our services;
* Harm our reputation;
* Require that we expend significant additional resources related to our
information security systems and result in a disruption of our
operations;
* Expose us to liability;
* Subject us to unfavorable regulatory restrictions and requirements
imposed by the state, federal or maritime authorities;
* Cause us to incur expenses related to remediation costs; and
* Decrease market acceptance of our services.
The risk that these types of events could adversely affect our business is
likely to increase as we expand the number of services we offer as well as
increase the numbers and types of games that we intend to offer on our
excursions, as more opportunities for such breaches of privacy will exist.
OUR COMMERCIAL SUCCESS DEPENDS SIGNIFICANTLY ON OUR ABILITY TO DEVELOP AND
COMMERCIALIZE OUR POTENTIAL SERVICES AS RAPIDLY AS POSSIBLE GIVEN OUR RECENT
LACK OF OPERATIONS.
Given our lack of viable operationsover the past few years, we may have
difficulty in raising sufficient funds through the sale of stock or from other
types of financing so that we may adequately fund our operations and start
operating our planned cruises.
OUR COMMERCIAL SUCCESS DEPENDS ON BEING ABLE TO ADEQUATELY INSURE THE COMPANY
FOR THE RISKSASSOCIATED WITH OPERATING A SHIP AS WELL AS OPERATING A GAMBLING
SHIP.
7
The Company may face liability from consumers injured while on the ship,
potential loss of the ship and our revenue stream due to weather and other
causes, to name a few. If we become involved in any litigation, it could consume
a substantial portion of our resources, regardless of the outcome of the
litigation. If any of these actions are successful, we could be required to pay
damages. Any substantial award might have the effect of causing the Company to
cease operating the gambling operation.
IF WE ARE UNABLE TO MANAGE OUR GROWTH EFFECTIVELY, OUR BUSINESS, FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS MAY BE ADVERSELY AFFECTED.
Expansion of our customer base across Texas is a key element of our marketing
strategy. The Company intends to increase our customer base and pursue market
opportunities. The expansion of our operations and employee base is expected to
place a significant strain on our management, operational and financial
resources. There can be no assurance that our current management or sales,
marketing & support or technical personnel will be able to support our future
operations or to identify, manage and exploit potential market and technological
opportunities. If we are unable to manage growth effectively, such inability
could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and
results of operations.
THE LOSS OF OUR SOLE OFFICER COULD HAVE A SIGNIFICANT IMPACT ON OUR ABILITY TO
DEVELOP OUR PLANNED OPERATIONS AND IMPLEMENT OUR BUSINESS PLAN.
The Company is entirely dependent on the skills and efforts of our sole officer,
Haviland Wright, who devotes a substantial portion of his time to the business.
The loss of him, or of other key personnel in the future, could have a material
adverse effect on the business and its prospects. The Company believes that all
commercially reasonable efforts have been made to minimize the risks attendant
with the departure of Mr. Wright from service and the Company plans to continue
these efforts in the future. However, in the event of Mr. Wright's departure
from the Company, there is no guarantee that any replacement would help the
Company to continue its business.
OUR SUCCESS DEPENDS ON CONTINUING TO HIRE AND RETAIN QUALIFIED PERSONNEL,
INCLUDING OUR SOLE OFFICER AND STAFF TO OPERATE THE SHIP AND PERSONNEL TO
OPERATE THE GAMING OPERATIONS. IF WE ARE NOT SUCCESSFUL IN ATTRACTING AND
RETAINING THESE PERSONNEL, OUR BUSINESS WILL SUFFER.
Our success depends substantially on the performance of our management team and
key personnel. Currently, we have only no employees. All other personnel
retained by the Company are hired as consultants on an as-needed basis. Due to
the specialized technical nature of our business, we are particularly dependent
on our consultants. Our future success will depend on our ability to attract,
integrate, motivate and retain qualified sales, operations, gaming and
managerial personnel, as well as our ability to successfully implement a plan
for management succession.
8
Competition for qualified personnel in our business areas is intense, and we may
not be able to continue to attract and retain key personnel. In addition, if we
lose the services of any of our management team or key personnel and are not
able to find suitable replacements in a timely manner, our business could be
disrupted and we may incur increased operating expenses.
CHANGES IN REGULATORY REQUIREMENTS COULD CREATE ADDITIONAL EXPENSES THAT COULD
DECREASE OUR PROFITABILITY.
We cannot predict the nature, scope or effect of future government regulations
to which our operations might be subject to or the manner in which existing or
future laws will be administered or interpreted. We may be subject to government
regulation in many areas, including state, federal and maritime laws. Failure to
comply with current or future regulations could result in the imposition of
substantial fines, suspension of our business or other actions which could
materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of
operations. Currently, the cost of complying with existing laws does not have a
material effect on our business or financial position.
IF WE ARE UNABLE TO MANAGE OUR GROWTH EFFECTIVELY, OUR BUSINESS, FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS MAY BE ADVERSELY AFFECTED.
Expansion of our business in Texas is a key element of our marketing strategy.
The Company intends to develop a customer base, begin operating cruise
excursions and pursue market opportunities. The expansion of our operations and
employee base is expected to place a significant strain on our management,
operational and financial resources. There can be no assurance that our current
management or sales, marketing, support or technical personnel will be able to
support our proposed operations or to identify, manage and exploit potential
market opportunities. If we are unable to manage growth effectively, such
inability could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial
condition and results of operations.
THE ELIMINATION OF MONETARY LIABILITY AGAINST THE COMPANY'S DIRECTORS, OFFICERS
AND EMPLOYEES UNDER NEVADA LAW AND THE EXISTENCE OF INDEMNIFICATION RIGHTS TO
THE COMPANY'S DIRECTORS, OFFICERS AND EMPLOYEES MAY RESULT IN SUBSTANTIAL
EXPENDITURES BY THE COMPANY AND MAY DISCOURAGE LAWSUITS AGAINST THE COMPANY'S
DIRECTORS, OFFICERS AND EMPLOYEES.
The Company's Certificate of Incorporation contains a specific provision that
eliminates the liability of directors for monetary damages to the Company and
the Company's stockholders; further, the Company is prepared to give such
indemnification to its directors and officers to the extent provided by Nevada
law. The foregoing indemnification obligations could result in the Company
incurring substantial expenditures to cover the cost of settlement or damage
awards against directors and officers, which the Company may be unable to
recoup. These provisions and resultant costs may also discourage the Company
from bringing a lawsuit against directors and officers for breaches of their
fiduciary duties and may similarly discourage the filing of derivative
litigation by the Company's stockholders against the Company's directors and
officers even though such actions, if successful, might otherwise benefit the
Company and its stockholders.
9
WE MAY BE EXPOSED TO RISKS RELATING TO MANAGEMENT'S CONCLUSION THAT OUR
DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES AND INTERNAL CONTROLS OVER FINANCIAL
REPORTING ARE INEFFECTIVE.
We do not have an independent audit committee and our Board of Directors may be
unable to fulfill the functions of such a committee which may compromise the
management of our business.
Currently, we do not have an independent audit committee. Our Board of Directors
functions as our audit committee and is comprised of three directors, one of
whom is not considered to be "independent" in accordance with the requirements
of Rule 10A-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. An independent audit
committee plays a crucial role in the corporate governance process, assessment
of the Company's processes relating to its risks and control environment,
oversight of financial reporting, and evaluation of internal and independent
audit processes. The lack of an independent audit committee may prevent the
Board of Directors from being independent in its judgments and decisions and its
ability to pursue the committee's responsibilities, which could compromise the
management of our business.
RISKS RELATING TO THE COMMON STOCK
THE COMPANY'S STOCK PRICE MAY BE VOLATILE.
The market price of the Company's common stock is likely to be highly volatile
and could fluctuate widely in price in response to various factors, many of
which are beyond the Company's control, including the following:
* technological innovations or new products and services by the Company
or its competitors;
* additions or departures of key personnel;
* the Company's ability to execute its business plan;
* operating results that fall below expectations;
* loss of any strategic relationship;
* industry developments;
* economic and other external factors; and
* period-to-period fluctuations in the Company's financial results.
10
In addition, the securities markets have from time to time experienced
significant price and volume fluctuations that are unrelated to the operating
performance of particular companies. These market fluctuations may also
materially and adversely affect the market price of the Company's common stock.
WE MAY IN THE FUTURE ISSUE ADDITIONAL SHARES OF OUR COMMON STOCK WHICH WOULD
REDUCE INVESTORS' OWNERSHIP INTERESTS IN THE COMPANY AND WHICH MAY DILUTE OUR
SHARE VALUE.
Our Articles of Incorporation authorizes the issuance of 750,000,000 shares of
common stock, par value $0.001 per share and 75,000,000 shares of preferred
stock, $.001 par value. The future issuance of all or part of our remaining
authorized common stock may result in substantial dilution in the percentage of
our common stock held by our then existing stockholders. We may value any common
stock issued in the future on an arbitrary basis. The issuance of common stock
for future services or acquisitions or other corporate actions may have the
effect of diluting the value of the shares held by our investors, and might have
an adverse effect on any trading market for our common stock.
In the future, the Company might authorize a class of preferred stock with
rights and preferences superior to those of the common stockholders and which
might contain provisions giving them priority over the rights of the common
stockholders. Any such class of preferred stock may result in substantial
dilution to our common stockholders and have an adverse effect on any trading
market for our common stock.
FINRA SALES PRACTICE REQUIREMENTS MAY LIMIT A STOCKHOLDER'S ABILITY TO BUY AND
SELL OUR STOCK.
The Financial Industry Regulatory Authority ("FINRA") has adopted rules that
relate to the application of the SEC's penny stock rules in trading our
securities and require that a broker/dealer have reasonable grounds for
believing that the investment is suitable for that customer, prior to
recommending the investment. Prior to recommending speculative, low priced
securities to their non-institutional customers, broker/dealers must make
reasonable efforts to obtain information about the customer's financial status,
tax status, investment objectives and other information.
Under interpretations of these rules, FINRA believes that there is a high
probability that speculative, low priced securities will not be suitable for at
least some customers. FINRA's requirements make it more difficult for
broker/dealers to recommend that their customers buy our common stock, which may
have the effect of reducing the level of trading activity and liquidity of our
common stock. Further, many brokers charge higher transactional fees for penny
stock transactions. As a result, fewer broker/dealers may be willing to make a
market in our common stock, reducing a shareholder's ability to resell shares of
our common stock.
11
THE COMPANY'S COMMON STOCK IS CURRENTLY DEEMED TO BE "PENNY STOCK", WHICH MAKES
IT MORE DIFFICULT FOR INVESTORS TO SELL THEIR SHARES.
The Company's common stock is and will be subject to the "penny stock" rules
adopted undersection 15(g) of the Exchange Act. The penny stock rules apply to
companies whose common stock is not listed on the NASDAQ Stock Market or other
national securities exchange and trades at less than $5.00 per share or that
have tangible net worth of less than $5,000,000 ($2,000,000 if the company has
been operating for three or more years). These rules require, among other
things, that brokers who trade penny stock to persons other than "established
customers" complete certain documentation, make suitability inquiries of
investors and provide investors with certain information concerning trading in
the security, including a risk disclosure document and quote information under
certain circumstances. Many brokers have decided not to trade penny stocks
because of the requirements of the penny stock rules and, as a result, the
number of broker-dealers willing to act as market makers in such securities is
limited. If the Company remains subject to the penny stock rules for any
significant period, it could have an adverse effect on the market, if any, for
the Company's securities. If the Company's securities are subject to the penny
stock rules, investors will find it more difficult to dispose of the Company's
securities.

12
We expect to incur these expenses over the next year as follows:
Time Period Expected Expenses
----------- -----------------
July 1, 2011 - September 30, 2011 $300,000
October 1, 2011 - December 31, 2011 $700,000

operating activities related to the Company's general operations.
CASH FLOW FROM INVESTING ACTIVITY
During the year ended December 31, 2010, the Company did not have any investing
activities.
CASH FLOW FROM FINANCING ACTIVITIES
During the year ended December 31, 2010, the Company received $163,726 from
financing activities.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Our financial statements and accompanying notes have been prepared in accordance
with United States generally accepted accounting principles applied on a
consistent basis. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with
U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities, 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 periods.
We regularly evaluate the accounting policies and estimates that we use to
prepare our financial statements. A complete summary of these policies is
included in the notes to our financial statements which are incorporated herein
by this reference to the Company's most recent Annual Report for the year ended
December 31, 2010, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on
January 18, 2011. In general, management's estimates are based on historical
experience, on information from third party professionals, and on various other
assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the facts and
circumstances. Actual results could differ from those estimates made by
management.
13
GOING CONCERN
We have not attained profitable operations and are dependent upon obtaining
financing to pursue any extensive activities. For these reasons, our auditors
stated in their report on our audited financial statements that they have
substantial doubt that we will be able to continue as a going concern without
further financing.
Our continued operations are dependent on our ability to complete equity or debt
financing activities or to generate profitable operations. The Company
anticipates that it will begin to produce a positive cash flow twelve months
after it begins operating the gambling ship. The Company expects to begin
operating the ship by the end of the current year. The Company has signed a
Letter of Intent for the operation of the gambling ship.
FUTURE FINANCINGS
We will continue to rely on equity sales of our common shares in order to
continue to fund our business operations. Issuances of additional shares will
result in dilution to existing stockholders. There is no assurance that we will
achieve any additional sales of the equity securities or arrange for debt or
other financing to fund planned acquisitions and exploration activities.
OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS
We have no significant off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are
reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition,
changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations,
liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to
stockholders.
CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS
We are a smaller reporting company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934 and are not required to provide the information under this
item.
RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In January 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued
Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2010-06, "Improving Disclosures about
Fair Value Measurements." ASU No. 2010-06 amends FASB Accounting Standards
Codification ("ASC") 820 and clarifies and provides additional disclosure
requirements related to recurring and non-recurring fair value measurements and
employers' disclosures about postretirement benefit plan assets. This ASU is
effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15,
2009. The adoption of ASU 2010-06 did not have a material impact on the
Company's financial statements.
In January 2010, the FASB issued an amendment to ASC 505, Equity, where entities
that declare dividends to shareholders that may be paid in cash or shares at the
election of the shareholders are considered to be a share issuance that is
14
reflected prospectively in EPS, and is not accounted for as a stock dividend.
This standard is effective for interim and annual periods ending on or after
December 15, 2009 and is to be applied on a retrospective basis. The adoption of
this standard is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company's
consolidated financial statements.
In January 2010, the FASB issued an amendment to ASC 820, Fair Value
Measurements and Disclosure, to require reporting entities to separately
disclose the amounts and business rationale for significant transfers in and out
of Level 1 and Level 2 fair value measurements and separately present
information regarding purchase, sale, issuance, and settlement of Level 3 fair
value measures on a gross basis. This standard, for which the Company is
currently assessing the impact, is effective for interim and annual reporting
periods beginning after December 15, 2009 with the exception of disclosures
regarding the purchase, sale, issuance, and settlement of Level 3 fair value
measures which are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010.
The adoption of this standard is not expected to have a significant impact on
the Company's consolidated financial statements.
In October 2009, FASB issued an amendment to the accounting standards related to
the accounting for revenue in arrangements with multiple deliverables including
how the arrangement consideration is allocated among delivered and undelivered
items of the arrangement. Among the amendments, this standard eliminated the use
of the residual method for allocating arrangement considerations and requires an
entity to allocate the overall consideration to each deliverable based on an
estimated selling price of each individual deliverable in the arrangement in the
absence of having vendor-specific objective evidence or other third party
evidence of fair value of the undelivered items. This standard also provides
further guidance on how to determine a separate unit of accounting in a
multiple-deliverable revenue arrangement and expands the disclosure requirements
about the judgments made in applying the estimated selling price method and how
those judgments affect the timing or amount of revenue recognition. This
standard, for which the Company is currently assessing the impact, will become
effective on January 1, 2011.
The Company has implemented all new accounting pronouncements that are in
effect. These pronouncements did not have any material impact on the financial
statements unless otherwise disclosed, and the Company does not believe that
there are any other new accounting pronouncements that have been issued that
might have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations.

The Company intends to establish an audit committee of the board of directors,
which will consist of independent directors. The audit committee's duties will
be to recommend to the Company's board of directors the engagement of an
independent registered public accounting firm to audit the Company's financial
statements and to review the Company's accounting and auditing principles. The
audit committee will review the scope, timing and fees for the annual audit and
the results of audit examinations performed by the internal auditors and
independent registered public accounting firm, including their recommendations
to improve the system of accounting and internal controls. The audit committee
will at all times be composed exclusively of directors who are, in the opinion
of the Company's board of directors, free from any relationship which would
interfere with the exercise of independent judgment as a committee member and
who possess an understanding of financial statements and generally accepted
accounting principles.

As of December 31, 2010, the Company has no other Executive Compensation issues
which would require the inclusion of other mandated table disclosures.
NARRATIVE DISCLOSURE TO SUMMARY COMPENSATION TABLE
There are no compensatory plans or arrangements, including payments to be
received from the Company with respect to any executive officer, that would
result in payments to such person because of his or her resignation, retirement
or other termination of employment with the Company, or its subsidiaries, any
change in control, or a change in the person's responsibilities following a
change in control of the Company.
OUTSTANDING EQUITY AWARDS AT FISCAL YEAR-END

COMPENSATION OF DIRECTORS

directors.
ITEM 7. CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS, AND DIRECTOR
INDEPENDENCE
DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCE
For purposes of determining director independence, we have applied the
definitions set out in NASDAQ Rule 5605(a)(2). The OTCBB on which shares of
Common Stock are quoted does not have any director independence requirements.
The NASDAQ definition of "Independent Officer" means a person other than an
Executive Officer or employee of the Company or any other individual having a
relationship which, in the opinion of the Company's Board of Directors, would
interfere with the exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the
responsibilities of a director.
22
According to the NASDAQ definition, Haviland Wright is not an independent
director because he is also an executive officer of the Company.
RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
None of the directors or executive officers of the Company, nor any person who
owned of record or was known to own beneficially more than 5% of the Company's
outstanding shares of its Common Stock, nor any associate or affiliate of such
persons or companies, has any material interest, direct or indirect, in any
transaction that has occurred during the past fiscal year, or in any proposed
transaction, which has materially affected or will affect the Company.
With regard to any future related party transaction, we plan to fully disclose
any and all related party transactions in the following manor:
Disclosing such transactions in reports where required;
Disclosing in any and all filings with the SEC, where required;
Obtaining disinterested directors consent; and
Obtaining shareholder consent where required.
Review, Approval or Ratification of Transactions with Related Persons
We are a smaller reporting company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934 and are not required to provide the information under this
item.
ITEM 8. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
We know of no material, existing or pending legal proceedings against our
company, nor are we involved as a plaintiff in any material proceeding or
pending litigation. There are no proceedings in which our director, officer or
any affiliates, or any registered or beneficial shareholder, is an adverse party
or has a material interest adverse to our interest.
ITEM 9. MARKET PRICE OF AND DIVIDENDS ON THE REGISTRANT'S COMMON EQUITY AND
RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS
COMMON STOCK
Our common stock is currently quoted on the NASDAQ OTC Bulletin Board, under the
trading symbol "XCHC."Because we are quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board, our
securities may be less liquid, receive less coverage by security analysts and
news media, and generate lower prices than might otherwise be obtained if they
were listed on a national securities exchange.
The following table sets forth the range of the high and low bid prices per
share of our common stock as reported on www.bigcharts.com during the last two
calendar years for the period indicated.These prices represent quotations
23
between dealers without adjustment for retail mark-up, markdown or commission
and may not represent actual transactions.

record of the common stock.
REPURCHASES OF EQUITY SECURITIES
We did not purchase any of our equity securities during 2010 and 2009.
EQUITY COMPENSATION
During 2010 and 2009, respectively, we did not issue any shares of our common
stock to consultants. We may from time to time issue additional shares to our
consultants, employees or directors at the discretion of our board of directors.
ITEM 10. RECENT SALES OF UNREGISTERED SECURITIES
None, other than those previously reported in our Form 10-K for the year ended
December 31, 2010 and our current report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on May
25, 2011.
ITEM 11. DESCRIPTION OF THE REGISTRANT'S SECURITIES
COMMON STOCK
Our authorized capital stock consists of 750,000,000 shares of $0.001 par value
common stock and 75,000,000 shares of $0.001 par value preferred stock. Each
share of common stock entitles a stockholder to one vote on all matters upon
which stockholders are permitted to vote. No stockholder has any preemptive
right or other similar right to purchase or subscribe for any additional
securities issued by us, and no stockholder has any right to convert the common
stock into other securities. No shares of common stock are subject to redemption
24
or any sinking fund provisions. All the outstanding shares of our common stock
are fully paid and non-assessable. Subject to the rights of the holders of the
preferred stock, if any, our stockholders of common stock are entitled to
dividends when, as and if declared by our board from funds legally available
therefore and, upon liquidation, to a pro-rata share in any distribution to
stockholders. We do not anticipate declaring or paying any cash dividends on our
common stock in the foreseeable future.
Pursuant to our Articles of Incorporation, our board has the authority, without
further stockholder approval, to provide for the issuance of up to 75,000,000
shares of our preferred stock in one or more series and to determine the
dividend rights, conversion rights, voting rights, rights in terms of
redemption, liquidation preferences, the number of shares constituting any such
series and the designation of such series. Our board has the power to afford
preferences, powers and rights (including voting rights) to the holders of any
preferred stock preferences, such rights and preferences being senior to the
rights of holders of common stock. No shares of our preferred stock are
currently outstanding. Although we have no present intention to issue any shares
of preferred stock, the issuance of shares of preferred stock, or the issuance
of rights to purchase such shares, may have the effect of delaying, deferring or
preventing a change in control of our company.
DIVIDENDS
We have never paid any cash dividends on our common stock. We intend to retain
and use any future earnings for the development and expansion of business and do
not anticipate paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future.
We refer you to our Certificate of Incorporation, Bylaws and the applicable
provisions of the Nevada private Corporations Law for a more complete
description of the rights and liabilities of holders of our securities.
ITEM 12. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS
We have the authority under the Nevada General Corporation Law to indemnify our
directors and officers to the extent provided for in such statute. Set forth
below is a discussion of Nevada law regarding indemnification which we believe
discloses the material aspects of such law on this subject. The Nevada law
provides, in part, that a corporation may indemnify a director or officer or
other person who was, is or is threatened to be made a named defendant or
respondent in a proceeding because such person is or was a director, officer,
employee or agent of the corporation, if it is determined that such person:
* conducted himself in good faith;
25
* reasonably believed, in the case of conduct in his official capacity
as a director or officer of the corporation, that his conduct was in
the corporation's best interest and, in all other cases, that his
conduct was at least not opposed to the corporation's best interests;
and
* in the case of any criminal proceeding, had no reasonable cause to
believe that his conduct was unlawful.
A corporation may indemnify a person under the Nevada law against judgments,
penalties, including excise and similar taxes, fines, settlement, unreasonable
expenses actually incurred by the person in connection with the proceeding. If
the person is found liable to the corporation or is found liable on the basis
that personal benefit was improperly received by the person, the indemnification
is limited to reasonable expenses actually incurred by the person in connection
with the proceeding, and shall not be made in respect of any proceeding in which
the person shall have been found liable for willful or intentional misconduct in
the performance of his duty to the corporation. The corporation may also pay or
reimburse expenses incurred by a person in connection with his appearance as
witness or other participation in a proceeding at a time when he is not a named
defendant or respondent in the proceeding.
Our Articles of Incorporation provides that none of our directors shall be
personally liable to us or our stockholders for monetary damages for an act or
omission in such directors' capacity as a director; provided, however, that the
liability of such director is not limited to the extent that such director is
found liable for (a) a breach of the directors' duty of loyalty to us or our
stockholders, (b) an act or omission not in good faith that constitutes a breach
of duty of the director to us or an act or omission that involves intentional
misconduct or a knowing violation of the law, (c) a transaction from which the
director received an improper benefit, whether or not the benefit resulted from
an action taken within the scope of the director's office, or (d) an act or
omission for which the liability of the director is expressly provided under
Nevada law. Limitations on liability provided for in our Articles of
Incorporation do not restrict the availability of non-monetary remedies and do
not affect a director's responsibility under any other law, such as the federal
securities laws or state or federal environmental laws.
We believe that these provisions will assist us in attracting and retaining
qualified individuals to serve as executive officers and directors. The
inclusion of these provisions in our Articles of Incorporation may have the
effect of reducing a likelihood of derivative litigation against our directors
and may discourage or deter stockholders or management from bringing a lawsuit
against directors for breach of their duty of case, even though such an action,
if successful, might otherwise have benefitted us or our stockholders.
Our Bylaws provide that we will indemnify our directors to the fullest extent
provided by Nevada General Corporation Law and we may, if and to the extent
authorized by our board of directors, so indemnify our officers and other
persons whom we have the power to indemnify against liability, reasonable
expense or other matters.
26
Regarding indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of
1933 which may be permitted for directors or officers pursuant to the foregoing
provisions, we are informed that, in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange
Commission, such indemnification is against public policy, as expressed in the
Act and is therefore unenforceable.
