PART I
ITEM 1. BUSINESS
CORPORATE OVERVIEW
We are a development stage company in the business of electrical power
generation through the use of wind energy. We currently own leasehold interests
in certain lands located in southwest Saskatchewan, Canada that comprise over
15,000 acres. Our agreements with land owners provide that we are permitted to
erect wind power facilities on these properties for the purpose of generating
and selling electricity. We also hold the right to explore certain additional
lands in southwest Saskatchewan for the purpose of determining whether they
possess wind resources that justify the erection of electrical power generation
facilities on them.
We have not generated any revenue from operations since our incorporation. We do
not anticipate earning any revenue until we have secured a power purchase
agreement to sell electricity that we generate, erected wind turbines on our
properties, connected our wind turbines to the electrical supply grid, and
commenced the production of electricity. There is no assurance that we will be
able to accomplish any or all of these objectives.
We were incorporated as Keewatin Windpower Corp. in the State of Nevada on
February 25, 2005. We changed our name to Sky Harvest Windpower Corp. on
September 1, 2009. Our resident agent is Empire Stock Transfer Inc., 1859
Whitney Mesa Drive, Henderson, NV, 89014. We are a United States and British
Columbia reporting public company, and our shares are quoted on the FINRA OTC
Bulletin Board under the symbol "SKYH". Our head office is in Vancouver, Canada.
OUR BUSINESS
The business of Sky Harvest Windpower Corp. is to identify potential wind power
project sites in Canada in the range of 100 to 200 megawatt capacity, collect
wind data on the sites, evaluate the wind resource, and conduct initial
environmental screening studies and community relations activities.
Once a project site is sufficiently advanced, we will seek to identify a joint
venture partner with the financial and operational resources necessary to
construct and operate the project and negotiate a power purchase agreement with
a public utility. We anticipate earning revenue through the provision of
development services to projects during the construction phase, and from
completed projects once they commence the electricity production through the
retention of a significant minority equity interest in the projects.
TECHNICAL BACKGROUND
Electricity is generated by wind power using a turbine. Wind passing over the
blades of the turbine causes them to rotate, driving a generator which produces
electrical current. A turbine is capable of generating a specified number of
megawatts, referred to as its "nameplate capacity". The total capacity of the
project is calculated as the sum of the nameplate capacities of the turbines
installed on the site. The number of turbines that can economically occupy a
specified area of land depends upon a number of factors including the
predominant wind direction, the topography of the property, the dimensions of
the property, the size of the turbines and their relative positions on the
property.
4
The most important criteria for the assessment of a wind power project are the
speed of the wind on a property, measured in meters per second, and the number
of hours that the wind moves at various speeds. This calculation is referred to
as the "capacity" of the wind resource.
In order for a wind power project to be profitable, the area in which it is
located should have a wind resource that yields a net capacity factor of over
30%. The capacity factor (sometimes referred to as the load factor) of a wind
project is the energy produced during a given period divided by the energy that
would have been produced had the project been running continually and at maximum
output, i.e.:
Capacity Factor(CF)= electricity produced during the period (MW x h)
-----------------------------------------------------------
installed capacity (MW) x number of hours in the period (h)
As wind energy output is a cube function of wind speed, the fewer hours at
higher wind speeds are significantly more valuable than more hours at lower wind
speeds.
A significant factor in assessing the viability of a power project is the
proximity of the project to established electrical transmission lines. The
project developer must pay to connect any wind turbines to this transmission
line. These connection costs are typically justified if the property is within
15 miles of the transmission line.
COMPETITIVE BUSINESS CONDITIONS
The alternative energy business is currently experiencing a strong growth phase
in North America. Several developers with existing generating facilities and new
developers with land holdings are engaged in the wind power business in the
province of Saskatchewan. We will be competing with other independent power
producers for transmission and supply contracts. In addition, traditional fossil
fuel producers in the region may be able to generate and supply electricity to
customers at prices below historical levels, depending on market conditions for
oil, coal, and natural gas.
In 2004, the Canadian government executed the Kyoto Accord, an international
treaty whereby countries mutually agree to reduce the amount of greenhouse gases
they emit. In order to meet their obligations under the Kyoto Accord, many
Canadian utilities will be required to reduce the generation of electricity from
fossil fuels and rely on environmentally sustainable alternatives such as solar
and wind generated power. However, if fossil fuel prices remain low and, in the
absence of public policy initiatives to mandate alternative energy sources,
electricity consumers are not prepared to pay higher prices for wind generated
power, our ability to execute a profitable power purchase agreement will be in
doubt. Our competitive advantage is expected to be providing electricity
generated without greenhouse gas emissions based on our ability to secure
exclusive rights to generate wind power on key land parcels.
PRINCIPAL SUPPLIERS
Wind, the "fuel" that drives a wind power generating plant is, by definition,
free and inexhaustible. The major cost categories for a wind power project are
the turbines, balance of station costs, which include all necessary
infrastructures, and the cost of connection to the transmission grid. Once in
operation, there are ongoing costs for monitoring, maintenance, repairs and
replacement.
The wind power business is global with the majority of turbines being
manufactured in Europe and the United States. Existing wind power projects in
Canada have generally selected turbines supplied by Vestas Wind Systems Inc. or
General Electric Energy. Both of these companies have corporate offices in
Canada.
5
DISTRIBUTION METHODS OF THE PRODUCTS OR SERVICES
Any electricity that a project produces will be sold to a public utility located
in the province of Saskatchewan, or in the neighboring Canadian provinces of
Alberta or Manitoba, or in the state of North Dakota. If a public utility other
the Saskatchewan Power Corporation (SaskPower) purchases the electricity, the
Company will be required to make application to SaskPower under the Open Access
Transmission Tariff agreement (OATT) for permission to use its electricity
distribution grid. We have not made application to SaskPower under the OATT. If
we make such an application, there is no assurance that SaskPower will grant us
access to the distribution grid, or that we would achieve access on acceptable
terms.
POWER PURCHASE AGREEMENT AND DEPENDENCE ON MAJOR CUSTOMERS
We intend to enter into an agreement, known as a power purchase agreement (PPA)
to sell the electricity generated from our proposed wind power projects. PPAs
typically include clauses regarding the price to be paid for the electricity in
cents per kilowatt-hour, the term of the agreement (usually 10 to 20 years),
terms of interconnection costs, and termination provisions. Due to our limited
operations, it is unlikely that we will pursue a PPA independently. Instead, for
each project, we will likely seek one or more potential joint venture partners
that have wind power development experience and significant financial resources.
To date, we have not entered into any joint venture agreements with any third
parties relating to our projects.
If we are able to execute a PPA with a third party, then we intend to undertake
the construction of a wind power project on the properties in which we have a
leasehold interest. Banks and other lenders will typically finance up to 75% of
wind power construction costs subject to review of the wind assessment data and
the PPA. The lender will ensure the project has sound fiscal parameters
necessary to be profitable, namely the price to be received per megawatt hour
and the number of megawatts of rated capacity. We have not had any specific
communications with any representative of a debt financing institution regarding
any proposed wind power project.
Typical PPAs that power utilities in Canada execute provide for the supply of a
specified number of megawatt-hours for a period of between ten and twenty years
at a pre-determined fixed price. We expect that a future PPA will encompass all
of the electricity that a particular project generates. For this reason, once we
have entered into a PPA, we expect to be dependent upon that customer to a
significant extent.
We intend to enter into a PPA with a public utility in the province of
Saskatchewan. As the public utilities in Saskatchewan are government entities,
counterparty risk is expected to be significantly lower than it would be if the
customer were a for-profit entity.
If we are unable to enter into a PPA with a Saskatchewan provincial utility, we
will consider executing a PPA with a similar utility in Manitoba, Canada, or
with a for-profit utility in Alberta, Canada, or in the United States. If we
enter into a PPA with a for-profit entity, counterparty risk will be increased.
As of the date of this report, we have not commenced substantive negotiations
with any prospective purchaser, and there is no assurance that we will be able
to successfully conclude a PPA on acceptable terms.
CURRENT PROJECTS
We initially decided to focus on the acquisition and development of potential
wind power projects in the Canadian province of Saskatchewan for several
reasons, including the high quality wind resource, the paucity of existing wind
6
power installations, aging fossil fuel generating infrastructure, growing public
and political support for green energy in the province, and the participation of
that province in the OATT. The OATT is an agreement which allows independent
power producers to transmit electricity via the province's electrical grid to
public utilities in Saskatchewan and to neighboring jurisdictions in Canada and
the United States.
KEEWATIN PROJECT
In June 2005, we identified a potential wind resource location, and in August
2005, we entered into an agreement with a land owner allowing the Company to
erect a meteorological tower on land located in southwestern Saskatchewan. We
erected a tower on the property in early October 2005 and commenced gathering
wind data.
As of the date of this report, we have assessed wind speed data from the
Keewatin site and have determined that the property has a wind resource that
warrants the further collection and evaluation of wind data, and the
commencement of initial engineering studies, environmental screening, and
community relations activities.
Based on the wind data collected, we have identified the area in which we desire
to acquire the rights to erect wind turbines. We believe that this area is
ideally situated as it is removed from population centers, and is less than five
miles from the nearest provincial electricity transmission line.
We have commenced initial negotiations with additional land owners in the region
to acquire the rights to erect wind turbines at identified locations. However,
no land lease agreements have been concluded and there is no assurance that we
will be able to acquire the necessary rights on acceptable terms. As of the date
of this report, we have not applied for any government permits or approvals for
this project.
Prior to generating any revenue from the Keewatin project, we must accomplish
the following business objectives:
* Identify the lands over which we wish to acquire lease rights, and
enter into lease agreements with the owners of those lands,
* Complete initial engineering and environmental screening studies on
the leased lands;
* Identify a joint venture partner with the financial and operational
resources necessary to construct and operate the project, and conclude
a joint venture and development agreement with the joint venture
partner on terms acceptable to both parties;
* In concert with the joint venture partner, complete the necessary
engineering and environmental studies, and obtain all necessary
permits;
* In concert with the joint venture partner, negotiate a PPA with a
public utility;
* In concert with the joint venture partner, arrange the equity and debt
financing to fund the construction of the project;
* Complete the construction of the project;
* Arrange for the connection of the project to the provincial
electricity transmission grid; and
* Commence the generation of electricity.
SKY HARVEST PROJECT
In October 2005, Sky Harvest - Saskatchewan, which subsequently became our
subsidiary, identified a potential wind power project site in southwestern
Saskatchewan and commenced the collection of wind data. Analysis of the data
collected indicates that the potential wind resource on the property exceeds the
7
minimum capacity factor necessary to justify the planning and construction of a
150 megawatt wind power project on the site. We acquired Sky Harvest -
Saskatchewan in July as we believe that in addition to being located in an
excellent wind resource area, the project is ideally situated as it is removed
from population centers, and is less than five miles from the nearest provincial
electricity transmission line. At the time of our acquisition of Sky Harvest -
Saskatchewan, its principal shareholders were two of our current directors,
William Iny and Greg Yanke, as well as a former director of the Company.
Sky Harvest - Saskatchewan has concluded land lease agreements with landowners
allowing us to erect wind turbines on approximately 15,000 acres. We have also
completed initial engineering and environment screening studies on the site. At
the initiation of the project, Sky Harvest - Saskatchewan committed to involve
the local community in the development process and has fully briefed local
council members on the details of the proposed development. The local municipal
authority responded positively to the proposed project and voted unanimously to
amend a by-law allowing wind power development in the rural municipality. As of
the date of this report, we have not applied for any government permits or
approvals for the project.
We have prepared initial estimates of the cost of building and operating a power
generation facility on the Sky Harvest project lands. As of the date of this
report, project costs are expected to be in the range of $2.5 million per MW,
based on 2011 costs. Cost estimates are likely to increase again before project
construction commences, owing to the world-wide high demand for wind turbines,
and the equipment and skilled resources required to construct a wind power
facility. Management expects that project cost increases will be considered in
the final determination of supply prices in a future PPA to be negotiated.
Prior to generating any revenue from the Sky Harvest project, we must accomplish
the following business objectives:
* Identify a joint venture partner with the financial and operational
resources necessary to construct and operate the project, and conclude
a joint venture and development agreement with the joint venture
partner on terms acceptable to both parties;
* In concert with the joint venture partner, complete the necessary
engineering and environmental studies, and obtain all necessary
permits;
* In concert with the joint venture partner, negotiate a PPA with a
public utility;
* In concert with the joint venture partner, arrange the equity and debt
financing to fund the construction of the project;
* Complete the construction of the project;
* Arrange for the connection of the project to the provincial
electricity transmission grid; and
* Commence the generation of electricity.
MATADOR PROJECT
In 2007, we identified an additional potential wind power generation location
near Beechy, Saskatchewan known as the Matador Pasture and entered into an
agreement under permit with the Government of Saskatchewan allowing us to erect
a meteorological on certain land located in southwestern Saskatchewan. We
erected this tower in autumn of 2007 and commenced gathering wind data. We have
determined that the Matador project hosts a wind resource that warrants the
additional collection and evaluation of wind data, as well as the commencement
of initial engineering studies, environmental screening, and community relations
activities. The project is removed from population centers and is traversed by a
230 kilovolt provincial electricity transmission line.
8
The agreement with the Government of Saskatchewan respecting the lands that
comprise the Matador project states that the government has no intention of
permitting the study or development of wind power by another entity and will not
permit the future development of another party within five miles of the land's
borders should we develop wind power electrical generation facilities on the
property.
We have not entered into any land lease agreements relating to the Matador
project.
RECENT CORPORATE DEVELOPMENTS
Since the commencement of our fiscal year beginning June 1 2010, we have
experienced the following significant corporate developments:
1. ADOPTION OF THE 2011 STOCK OPTION PLAN
Effective March 10, 2011, our board of directors adopted the 2011 Stock
Option Plan. The purpose of the 2011 Stock Option Plan is to enhance the
long-term stockholder value of our company by offering opportunities to
directors, officers, employees and eligible consultants of our company to
acquire and maintain stock ownership in our company in order to give these
persons the opportunity to participate in our company's growth and success,
and to encourage them to remain in the service of our company. A total of
5,000,000 shares of common stock are available for issuance under the 2011
Stock Option Plan.
The 2011 Stock Option Plan provides for the grant of incentive stock
options and non-qualified stock options. Incentive stock options granted
under the 2011 Stock Option Plan are those intended to qualify as
"incentive stock options" as defined under Section 422 of the Internal
Revenue Code. However, in order to qualify as "incentive stock options"
under Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code, the 2011 Stock Option Plan
must be approved by the stockholders of our company within 12 months of its
adoption. The 2011 Stock Option Plan has not been approved by our
stockholders. Non-qualified stock options granted under the 2011 Stock
Option Plan are option grants that do not qualify as incentive stock
options under Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code.
2. SASKATCHEWAN POWER CORPORATION REQUEST FOR QUALIFICATIONS
In October 2009 Saskatchewan Power Corporation (SaskPower), the Crown
Corporation responsible for electricity supply in the Canadian province of
Saskatchewan announced its "Green Options Plan", stating its intention to
procure up to 175MW of wind power from independent power producers. A
formal Request for Qualifications (RFQ) was issued in December 2009. The
RFQ sought to identify qualified bidders with the interest and capability
to finance, build and operate a wind generation facility in the province.
The closing date for the RFQ was March 15, 2010. Respondents which
qualified will be invited to respond to a formal Request for Proposals in
the spring of 2010. SaskPower set certain criteria, for respondents to the
RFQ relating to, among other things, the size of the project, control of
the proposed site, wind project expertise and financial strength of the
proponent.
We were unable to meet the financial criteria for the RFQ. We therefore
negotiated the support of an international wind power developer to act as
Joint Venture Developer and Financial Guarantor to the project, and
submitted a response to the RFQ.
9
On July 15, 2010, SaskPower informed us that we had not been qualified in
the RFQ as the combined balance sheets of us and the Project Guarantor
technically did not meet the financial requirements set out in the RFQ.
3. RESIGNATION OF OFFICER AND APPOINTMENT OF DIRECTORS
On September 1, 2010, we appointed William Iny as its President, CEO, CFO,
Secretary, and Treasurer in place of Chris Craddock, who resigned from
these positions on the same date. Mr. Craddock also resigned as our
director on September 1, 2010
We appointed the following additional directors on the various dates
indicated:
Name of Director Date of Appointment
---------------- -------------------
Harry Bauskin April 14, 2011
Patricia J. Shorr April 28, 2011
Greg Yanke June 14, 2011
GOVERNMENT APPROVALS AND ENVIRONMENTAL LAWS
In order to erect turbines on a property, the Company may need to apply for, and
obtain, municipal permits relating to zoning and building. Until the Company
determines the exact locations of the sites within the property upon which it
intends to erect turbines, it will not be able to determine the specific
permitting requirements for its project. However, the potential turbine sites
for the Company's wind power project are located in areas well removed from
significant population centers.
The creation of a wind power project will also involve the excavation of
portions of the land and the construction of concrete platforms below the land
surface. Any development project of this nature is subject to the provisions of
the Saskatchewan Environmental Assessment Act. Before excavation and
construction can be commenced, the Company will need to obtain environmental
approval from the Saskatchewan provincial government Ministry of the
Environment. The Company must apply for approval by completing an environmental
impact assessment and statement, as well as by providing public notice of the
proposed development. After the public review, usually a 30 day period which may
involve public meetings, the Ministry of the Environment will make a final
decision regarding the project. An approval may include a number of conditions
to mitigate any identified environmental impacts.
As of the date of this report, the Company is not aware of any archaeologically
significant or ecologically sensitive areas within the locations on which the
Company is contemplating the erection of turbines. However, the Company is
unable to predict if the requisite permits will be granted; or, if they are
granted, what, if any, conditions may be imposed by the provincial government,
and the costs associated with compliance therewith. If such permits are granted
subject to certain conditions, there is no assurance that it will be
economically or practically feasible for the Company to comply with those
conditions.
As of the date of this report, the Company has not applied for any government
permits or approvals for either location.
RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT, PATENTS AND TRADEMARKS
The Company has not conducted any original research and development. The Company
does not own, either legally or beneficially, any patents or trademarks.
10
DIRECTORS, OFFICERS AND EMPLOYEES
The Company has four directors, one of whom also serves as Chief Executive
Officer and Chief Financial Officer. As of the date of this report, the Company
has no employees, as the Company has engaged consultants and professional
service firms to perform all the work necessary to advance the Company's
projects. Employees will be engaged as and when the Company's activities warrant
this.
PLAN OF OPERATIONS - YEAR ENDING MAY 31, 2012
During the fiscal year ending May 31, 2012, the Company intends to achieve the
following business objectives:
CORPORATE ACTIVITIES
* Raise additional financing to fund the continued operations of the
Company.
KEEWATIN PROJECT
* Commence a Wind Resource Report and Site Engineering Assessment,
* Commence assessment of potential environmental impacts of the proposed
project,
* Commence a community relations program,
* Commence negotiation of land lease agreements with landowners.
SKY HARVEST PROJECT
* Continue to monitor wind data and update the Wind Resource Report and
Site engineering Assessment accordingly,
* Continue discussions with a potential joint venture and development
partner and reach a joint venture agreement in a form acceptable to
both parties,
* Continue the Community Development program to provide residents in the
area with information on the project, and to allow for comments and
mitigation,
* Consult with First Nations groups that may be impacted by project
development.
The Company will also consider the potential acquisition of additional
alternative energy projects in North America.
As of the date of this report, there is no assurance that the Saskatchewan
utility will issue another RFQ, an RFP or a power call. If a RFP or power call
is issued, there is no assurance that the Company will be successful in
negotiating a PPA for the full capacity of either of its potential projects. At
present, only the Sky Harvest project is at a stage of development that would
justify participation in an RFQ, RFP or a power call.
The Company will require additional funding in order to complete the plan of
operations as set out above. While the Company does not have any commitments for
future funding, it anticipates that additional cash requirements will be met by
debt or equity financings. There is no assurance, however, that additional
funding can be obtained, or if obtained, on terms that are acceptable to the
Company.
REPORTS TO SECURITY HOLDERS
We file reports and other information with the SEC. Historical information about
our company and other information can be inspected and copied at the Public
Reference Room of the SEC located at Room 1580, 100 F Street, N.E., Washington
D.C. 20549. Copies of such materials, including copies of any portion of the
registration statement, can be obtained from the Public Reference Room of the
SEC at prescribed rates. You can call the SEC at 1-800-SEC-0330 to obtain
11
information on the operation of the Public Reference Room. Such materials may
also be accessed electronically by means of the SEC's home page on the Internet
(http://www.sec.gov).
ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
RISKS RELATED TO OUR BUSINESS
IF WE DO NOT OBTAIN ADDITIONAL FINANCING OUR BUSINESS WILL FAIL.
Over the next 12 months, we expect to spend approximately $300,000 on
administrative costs, including management and consulting fees, professional
fees and general business expenses, including costs related to complying with
our filing obligations as a reporting company. As our operations become more
complex, it is anticipated that these costs will increase. We also expect incur
a further $90,000 in pre-development costs related to our wind power projects.
As well, we may also incur significant costs if we acquire additional assets in
the energy sector.
As of the date of this report, we do not have sufficient cash on hand to fund
all of these expenditures. We will need to raise additional debt or equity
financing in order to cover remaining business costs. We do not currently have
any arrangements for financing and may not be able to find such financing if
required.
BECAUSE WE HAVE NOT COMMENCED BUSINESS OPERATIONS, WE FACE A HIGH RISK OF
BUSINESS FAILURE.
We have not yet commenced business operations as an independent power producer.
Accordingly, we have no way to evaluate the likelihood that our business will be
successful. We were incorporated on February 25, 2005 and to date have been
involved in conducting land assessments, acquiring leasehold interests in
properties having the potential for wind power development, raising financing,
and completing wind, environmental, and community assessments.
Potential investors should be aware of the difficulties normally encountered by
development stage companies and the high rate of failure of such enterprises.
Prior to earning revenue, of which there is no assurance, we will likely incur
significant costs and expect to incur significant losses in the foreseeable
future. If we are unable to acquire a property interest and erect a wind farm on
our property, we will not earn profits nor be able to continue operations.
BECAUSE OUR CONTINUATION AS A GOING CONCERN IS IN DOUBT, WE WILL BE FORCED TO
CEASE BUSINESS OPERATIONS UNLESS WE CAN GENERATE PROFITABLE OPERATIONS IN THE
FUTURE.
We have incurred losses since our inception. Further losses are anticipated in
the development of our business. As a result, there is substantial doubt about
our ability to continue as a going concern. Our ability to continue as a going
concern is dependent in the short to medium term on our ability to obtain the
necessary financing to meet our obligations and repay our liabilities arising
from normal business operations when they come due, and in the longer term, on
upon our ability to generate profitable operations in the future. If we cannot
raise financing to meet our obligations, we will be insolvent and will cease
business operations.
IF WE ARE NOT ABLE TO OBTAIN AN INTEREST IN A SUITABLE PROPERTY WITH A POTENTIAL
WIND RESOURCE, OUR BUSINESS WILL FAIL.
The lands on which we will seek to construct wind projects are owned by other
parties. We will need to enter into land leases or other appropriate agreements
in order to erect wind turbines and install ancillary equipment on the Keewatin
12
project and Matador project sites. We have entered into an agreement to operate
a meteorological tower on a property comprising the Keewatin project and the
Matador project in southwestern Saskatchewan. However, we do not yet have an
arrangement whereby we may erect turbines on the property.
We have entered into land lease agreements covering approximately 15,000 acres
in another area of southwestern Saskatchewan that we refer to as the Sky Harvest
project, allowing us to erect wind turbines and install ancillary equipment,
subject, in certain circumstances, to the payment of lease payments prior to
construction of the project. Even though we own leasehold interests in these
properties, we may not be able to obtain the financing necessary to complete
lease obligations. If we are unable to maintain our property interests, our
business will fail.
FUTURE CHANGES IN WEATHER PATTERNS COULD NEGATIVELY IMPACT OUR BUSINESS,
REDUCING POTENTIAL PROFITABILITY OR CAUSING OUR BUSINESS TO FAIL.
Changes in weather patterns may affect our ability to operate a wind power
project on any property we acquire. Wind data that we collect from a
meteorological tower may vary from results actually achieved when a wind turbine
is installed. Changing global environmental and weather conditions may also
affect the reliability of the data relating to a property.
Any wind farm that we develop, no matter where it is located, would be subject
to variations in wind and changes in worldwide climatic conditions. Sudden or
unexpected changes in environmental and meteorological conditions could reduce
the productivity of any wind farm we construct. Climatic weather patterns,
whether seasonal or for an extended period of time, resulting in lower,
inadequate and/or inconsistent wind speed to propel the wind turbines may render
our wind parks incapable of generating adequate, or any, electrical energy.
OUR ABILITY TO ERECT TURBINES ON A PROPERTY IN SASKATCHEWAN WILL BE CONTINGENT
UPON IT OBTAINING ENVIRONMENTAL AND MUNICIPAL PERMITS. IF IT CANNOT ACQUIRE
THESE PERMITS, OUR BUSINESS WILL FAIL.
In order to erect turbines on the Saskatchewan property, we must excavate
portions of the land and install concrete platforms below surface. Before we
commence this, we will need to obtain environmental and municipal permits from
the Saskatchewan provincial government and the town responsible for the property
interest it acquires. Depending on environmental impact, our proposed land
disturbance may be unacceptable to these government bodies. In addition, the
turbines themselves may be seen to have a negative impact on the aesthetics of
the region. These factors may prevent us from obtaining necessary permits. In
such circumstances, we would be forced to abandon our business plan.
IF WE CANNOT REACH AN AGREEMENT WITH A JOINT VENTURE DEVELOPER AND OPERATOR OUR
BUSINESS WILL FAIL.
As presently constituted, we do not have the skills and expertise necessary to
build and operate a wind farm. Our management has never been involved in the
construction or operation of a wind power project and does not have any
technical background in the sector.
IF WE CANNOT FIND A JOINT VENTURE PARTNER FOR OUR PROJECTS OR A PARTY WHICH WILL
PURCHASE OUR ELECTRICITY ON ACCEPTABLE TERMS, WE WILL NOT BE ABLE TO ESTABLISH A
WIND POWER PROJECT AND OUR BUSINESS WILL FAIL.
Even if we demonstrate a significant wind resource on a property that we
acquire, we may not be able to secure a joint venture partner to further develop
a project or a purchaser for any electricity that we produce on acceptable
terms. Without a purchaser for electricity from a property, we will not be able
to proceed with our business plan.
13
BECAUSE ALL OF OUR ASSETS, HALF OF OUR DIRECTORS, AND OUR SOLE OFFICER ARE
LOCATED IN CANADA, U.S. RESIDENTS' ENFORCEMENT OF LEGAL PROCESS MAY BE
DIFFICULT.
All of our assets are located in Canada. In addition, two of our four directors
and our sole officer resides in Canada. Accordingly, service of process upon our
company, or upon individuals related to Sky Harvest, may be difficult or
impossible to obtain within the United States. As well, any judgment obtained in
the United States against us may not be collectible within the United States.
RISKS RELATED TO OUR COMMON STOCK
A DECLINE IN THE PRICE OF OUR COMMON STOCK COULD AFFECT OUR ABILITY TO RAISE
FURTHER WORKING CAPITAL, IT MAY ADVERSELY IMPACT OUR ABILITY TO CONTINUE
OPERATIONS AND WE MAY GO OUT OF BUSINESS.
A prolonged decline in the price of our common stock could result in a reduction
in the liquidity of our common stock and a reduction in our ability to raise
capital. Because we may attempt to acquire a significant portion of the funds we
need in order to conduct our planned operations through the sale of equity
securities, a decline in the price of our common stock could be detrimental to
our liquidity and our operations because the decline may cause investors not to
choose to invest in our stock. If we are unable to raise the funds we require
for all of our planned operations, we may force us to reallocate funds from
other planned uses which may have a significant negative effect on our business
plan and operations, including our ability to develop new products and continue
our current operations. As a result, our business may suffer and not be
successful and we may go out of business. We also might not be able to meet our
financial obligations if we cannot raise enough funds through the sale of our
common stock and we may be forced to go out of business.
IF WE ISSUE ADDITIONAL SHARES IN THE FUTURE, IT WILL RESULT IN THE DILUTION OF
OUR EXISTING SHAREHOLDERS . Our certificate of incorporation authorizes the
issuance of up to 100,000,000 shares of common stock with a par value of $0.001.
Our board of directors may choose to issue some or all of such shares to acquire
one or more businesses or to provide additional financing in the future. The
issuance of any such shares will result in a reduction of the book value and
market price of the outstanding shares of our common stock. If we issue any such
additional shares, such issuance will cause a reduction in the proportionate
ownership and voting power of all current shareholders. Further, such issuance
may result in a change of control of our corporation.
TRADING ON THE OTC BULLETIN BOARD MAY BE VOLATILE AND SPORADIC, WHICH COULD
DEPRESS THE MARKET PRICE OF OUR COMMON STOCK AND MAKE IT DIFFICULT FOR OUR
STOCKHOLDERS TO RESELL THEIR SHARES.
Our common stock is quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board service of the Financial
Industry Regulatory Authority ("FINRA"). Trading in stock quoted on the OTC
Bulletin Board is often thin and characterized by wide fluctuations in trading
prices due to many factors that may have little to do with our operations or
business prospects. This volatility could depress the market price of our common
stock for reasons unrelated to operating performance. Moreover, the OTC Bulletin
Board is not a stock exchange, and trading of securities on the OTC Bulletin
Board is often more sporadic than the trading of securities listed on a
quotation system like NASDAQ or a stock exchange like the American Stock
Exchange. Accordingly, our shareholders may have difficulty reselling any of
their shares.
14
OUR STOCK IS A PENNY STOCK. TRADING OF OUR STOCK MAY BE RESTRICTED BY THE SEC'S
PENNY STOCK REGULATIONS AND FINRA'S SALES PRACTICE REQUIREMENTS, WHICH MAY LIMIT
A STOCKHOLDER'S ABILITY TO BUY AND SELL OUR STOCK.
Our stock is a penny stock. The Securities and Exchange Commission has adopted
Rule 15g-9 which generally defines "penny stock" to be any equity security that
has a market price (as defined) less than $5.00 per share or an exercise price
of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions. Our securities are
covered by the penny stock rules, which impose additional sales practice
requirements on broker-dealers who sell to persons other than established
customers and "accredited investors". The term "accredited investor" refers
generally to institutions with assets in excess of $5,000,000 or individuals
with a net worth in excess of $1,000,000 or annual income exceeding $200,000 or
$300,000 jointly with their spouse. The penny stock rules require a
broker-dealer, prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from
the rules, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document in a form prepared
by the SEC which provides information about penny stocks and the nature and
level of risks in the penny stock market. The broker-dealer also must provide
the customer with current bid and offer quotations for the penny stock, the
compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson in the transaction and
monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in
the customer's account. The bid and offer quotations, and the broker-dealer and
salesperson compensation information, must be given to the customer orally or in
writing prior to effecting the transaction and must be given to the customer in
writing before or with the customer's confirmation. In addition, the penny stock
rules require that prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt
from these rules, the broker-dealer must make a special written determination
that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the
purchaser's written agreement to the transaction. These disclosure requirements
may have the effect of reducing the level of trading activity in the secondary
market for the stock that is subject to these penny stock rules. Consequently,
these penny stock rules may affect the ability of broker-dealers to trade our
securities. We believe that the penny stock rules discourage investor interest
in, and limit the marketability of, our common stock.
FINRA SALES PRACTICE REQUIREMENTS MAY ALSO LIMIT A STOCKHOLDER'S ABILITY TO BUY
AND SELL OUR STOCK.
In addition to the "penny stock" rules promulgated by the Securities and
Exchange Commission (see above for a discussion of penny stock rules), FINRA
rules require that in recommending an investment to a customer, a broker-dealer
must have reasonable grounds for believing that the investment is suitable for
that customer. 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 requirements make it
more difficult for broker-dealers to recommend that their customers buy our
common stock, which may limit your ability to buy and sell our stock and have an
adverse effect on the market for our shares.

========== ========== ========= ===
REVENUE
We recorded a net operating loss of $3,484,264 for the twelve months ended May
31, 2011 and have an accumulated deficit of $6,219,972 since inception. We have
had no operating revenues since our inception on February 25, 2005 through to
the period ended May 31, 2011. We do not anticipate that we will generate any
revenues during the period in which we are a development stage company.
18
EXPENSES
Our expenses for the years ended May 31, 2011 and 2010 are outlined below:
Year Ended May 31, Increase/(Decrease)
2011 2010 $ %
---------- ---------- --------- -----
Consulting fees $ 54,476 $ 128,348 (73,872) (58%)
Engineering and development 92,917 200,692 (107,775) (54%)
Management fees 94,144 169,243 (75,099) (44%)

---------- ---------- --------- -----
Total Operating Expenses $ 965,699 $1,586,238 (620,539) (39%)
========== ========== ========= =====
Consulting fees decreased by $73,872 from $128,348 in the year ended May 31,
2010 to $54,476 in the year ended May 31, 2011. Consulting fees decreased as a
result of decreased expenditures on investor relations activities and financial
consulting fees that we incurred in 2010 in connection with the acquisition of
Sky Harvest -- Saskatchewan.
Engineering and development expenses decreased by $107,775 from $200,692 in the
year ended May 31, 2010 to $92,917 in the year ended May 31, 2011. This decrease
is a result of reduced development work on our wind power projects.
Management fees for the year ended May 31, 2011 decreased by $75,099 from
$169,243 for the year ended May 31, 2010 to $94,144 for the year ended May 31,
2011. This decrease is a result of the termination of our management contract
with Chris Craddock, who ceased providing us with management services on
September 1, 2010. Since that date, William Iny, our president and a director,
had provided us with management services for remuneration of $5,000, which has
been entirely accrued since September 1, 2010.
Professional fees decreased by $78,723 from $133,480 in the year ended May 31,
2010 to $54,757 in the year ended May 31, 2011 due to the fact that we incurred
higher than usual professional fees in fiscal 2010 in connection with our
acquisition of Sky Harvest - Saskatchewan and the creation of a stock option
plan.
General and administrative expenses decreased by $42,569 from $711,974 in the
year ended May 31, 2010 to $669,405 in the year ended May 31, 2011. Of these
amounts, in 2010 and 2011, $589,514 and $585,180 of these amounts are
attributable to stock-based compensation paid to directors and consultants
during the respective fiscal years.
Acquired development costs in the amount of $242,501 expensed during the three
months ended August 31, 2009, represent develop costs incurred by Sky Harvest -
Saskatchewan prior to our acquisition of the company on July 11, 2009.
19
IMPAIRMENT LOSS
We have recorded an impairment loss of $2,551,440 for the fiscal year ended May
31, 2011 relating to the intangible assets that we acquired pursuant to our
acquisition of Sky Harvest - Saskatchewan. The write down of this asset was due
to the uncertainty regarding the Sky Harvest project's future cash flows, if
any, and the uncertainty of our ability to execute a power purchase agreement
relating to the project and the terms of what such an agreement would be.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Our financial condition for the year ended May 31, 2011 and 2010 and the changes
between those periods for the respective items are summarized as follows:
WORKING CAPITAL
Year Ended May 31, Increase/Decrease
2011 2010 $ %
--------- --------- --------- ---
Current Assets $ 87,440 75,343 12,097 16%
Current Liabilities 513,079 98,166 414,913 423%
--------- --------- --------- ---
Working Capital $(425,639) (22,823) (402,816) N/A
========= ========= ========= ===
The $402,816 decrease in our working capital position from ($22,823) as of May
31, 2010, to ($425,639) as of May 31, 2011 was primarily due to loans we
received from our directors and third parties that we used to fund our project
development and corporate activities, the accrual of management fees to our
president, delays in paying our creditors. Subsequent to the fiscal year ended
May 31, 2011, our working capital position improved following our completion of
a $492,500 equity financing in June 2011.

CASH USED IN OPERATING ACTIVITIES
During the year ended May 31, 2011 we used net cash in operating activities in
the amount of $208,008 (year ended May 31, 2010 - $669,315). The cash was used
to fund our corporate activities and operations on our wind power project.
20
CASH PROVIDED BY (USED IN) INVESTING ACTIVITIES
During the year ended May 31, 2011 we redeemed the remaining $22,840 of our
short-term investments. In fiscal 2010, we redeemed 970,644 in short-term
investments and acquired wind tower equipment at a cost of $1,338 and cash in
the amount of $21,016 as a result of our acquisition of Sky Harvest -
Saskatchewan. We also purchased short-term investments of $322,839 in our fiscal
year ended May 31, 2010.
CASH FROM FINANCING ACTIVITIES
In the fiscal year ended May 31, 2011, we received $207,390 in loans from two of
our directors. In addition, we received a third party loan of $60,324. We did
not undertake any financing activities during the year ended May 31, 2010.
FUTURE FINANCINGS
We recorded a net loss of $987,012 for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2011 and
have an accumulated deficit of $3,668,532 since our inception. As of May 31,
2011, we had cash and short term investments totaling $23,465 (May 31, 2010 -
$23,105).
Subsequent to the fiscal year, we completed a private placement financing
consisting of the sale of 1,970,000 common shares at a purchase price of $0.25
per share for gross proceeds of $492,500. We expect that these funds will cover
our anticipated operating costs over the next 12 months. However, we will need
additional funds to cover our outstanding liabilities. In addition we will
require further financing in order to fund any expenses for the construction of
our proposed wind turbine projects.
As of the date of this report, we do not have any arrangements in place for
additional debt financing or for the sale of our securities, and there is no
assurance that we will be able to raise funds through either means.
We have not had any specific communications with any representative of a debt
financing institution regarding our proposed wind power project. We will only be
able to secure debt financing for wind turbines if we are able to prove that an
economic wind resource exists on a property that is acquired and that we have
negotiated a power purchase agreement with a credit worthy counter-party.
We anticipate continuing 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 our existing shareholders. As of the date of this report,
there is no assurance that we will achieve any additional sales of our equity
securities or arrange for debt or other financing to fund our development
activities.
SUBSEQUENT EVENT
Subsequent to the fiscal year, we completed a private placement financing
consisting of the sale of 1,970,000 common shares at a purchase price of $0.25
per share for gross proceeds of $492,500.
OFF BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS
We have no off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to
have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial
condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital
expenditures or capital resources that is material to stockholders.

RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In June 2008, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued FASB
Staff Position EITF 03-6-1, "DETERMINING WHETHER INSTRUMENTS GRANTED IN
SHARE-BASED PAYMENT TRANSACTIONS ARE PARTICIPATING SECURITIES". FSP EITF 03-6-1
addresses whether instruments granted in share-based payment transactions are
participating securities prior to vesting, and therefore need to be included in
the computation of earnings per share under the two-class method as described in
FASB Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128, "Earnings per Share."
FSP EITF 03-6-1 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years
beginning on or after December 15, 2008 and earlier adoption is prohibited. The
adoption of this statement is not expected to have a material effect on the
Company's financial statements.
In May 2009, FASB issued SFAS No. 165 (SFAS 165) "SUBSEQUENT EVENTS". SFAS 165
establishes general standards of for the evaluation, recognition and disclosure
of events and transactions that occur after the balance sheet date. Although
there is new terminology, the standard is based on the same principles as those
that currently exist in the auditing standards. The standard, which includes a
new required disclosure of the date through which an entity has evaluated
subsequent events, is effective for interim or annual periods ending after June
15, 2009. The adoption of SFAS 165 is not expected to have a significant impact
on the Company's financial statements.
In May 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 162, "The HIERARCHY OF GENERALLY ACCEPTED
ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES". SFAS 162 identifies the sources of accounting principles
and the framework for selecting the principles to be used in the preparation of
financial statements of nongovernmental entities that are presented in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States.
It is effective 60 days following the SEC's approval of the Public Company
Accounting Oversight Board amendments to AU Section 411, "THE MEANING OF PRESENT
FAIRLY IN CONFORMITY WITH GENERALLY ACCEPTED ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES". The
adoption of this statement is not expected to have a material effect on the
Company's financial statements.
In March 2008, FASB issued SFAS No. 161, "DISCLOSURES ABOUT DERIVATIVE
INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES - AN AMENDMENT TO FASB STATEMENT NO. 133".
SFAS No. 161 is intended to improve financial standards for derivative
instruments and hedging activities by requiring enhanced disclosures to enable
investors to better understand their effects on an entity's financial position,
financial performance, and cash flows. Entities are required to provide enhanced
disclosures about: (a) how and why an entity uses derivative instruments; (b)
how derivative instruments and related hedged items are accounted for under
Statement 133 and its related interpretations; and (c) how derivative
instruments and related hedged items affect an entity's financial position,
financial performance, and cash flows. It is effective for financial statements
issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008, with early adoption
encouraged. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of SFAS No. 161 on
its financial statements, and the adoption of this statement is not expected to
have a material effect on the Company's financial statements.
In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141R, "BUSINESS COMBINATIONS". This
statement replaces SFAS 141 and defines the acquirer in a business combination
as the entity that obtains control of one or more businesses in a business
combination and establishes the acquisition date as the date that the acquirer
achieves control. SFAS 141R requires an acquirer to recognize the assets
acquired, the liabilities assumed, and any non-controlling interest in the
acquiree at the acquisition date, measured at their fair values as of that date.
SFAS 141R also requires the acquirer to recognize contingent consideration at
the acquisition date, measured at its fair value at that date. This statement is
effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years,
beginning on or after December 15, 2008. Earlier adoption is prohibited. The
adoption of this statement is not expected to have a material effect on the
Company's financial statements.
22
In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, "NONCONTROLLING INTERESTS IN
CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS LIABILITIES -AN AMENDMENT OF ARB NO. 51". This
statement amends ARB 51 to establish accounting and reporting standards for the
noncontrolling interest in a subsidiary and for the deconsolidation of a
subsidiary. This statement is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods
within those fiscal years, beginning on or after December 15, 2008. Earlier
adoption is prohibited. The adoption of this statement is not expected to have a
material effect on the Company's financial statements.
In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, "THE FAIR VALUE OPTION FOR
FINANCIAL ASSETS AND FINANCIAL LIABILITIES - INCLUDING AN AMENDMENT OF FASB
STATEMENT NO. 115". This statement permits entities to choose to measure many
financial instruments and certain other items at fair value. Most of the
provisions of SFAS No. 159 apply only to entities that elect the fair value
option. However, the amendment to SFAS No. 115 "ACCOUNTING FOR CERTAIN
INVESTMENTS IN DEBT AND EQUITY SECURITIES" applies to all entities with
available-for-sale and trading securities. SFAS No. 159 is effective as of the
beginning of an entity's first fiscal year that begins after November 15, 2007.
Early adoption is permitted as of the beginning of a fiscal year that begins on
or before November 15, 2007, provided the entity also elects to apply the
provision of SFAS No. 157, "FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS". The adoption of this
statement did not have a material effect on the Company's financial statements.
In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, "FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS". The
objective of SFAS 157 is to increase consistency and comparability in fair value
measurements and to expand disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS 157
defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in
generally accepted accounting principles, and expands disclosures about fair
value measurements. SFAS 157 applies under other accounting pronouncements that
require or permit fair value measurements and does not require any new fair
value measurements. The provisions of SFAS No. 157 are effective for fair value
measurements made in fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. The
adoption of this statement did not have a material effect on the Company's
financial statements.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders
Sky Harvest Windpower Cor.
A Development Stage Company
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Sky Harvest
Windpower Corp. (A Development Stage "Company") as of May 31, 2011 and 2010 and
the related consolidated statements of operation, changes in shareholders'
equity and cash flows for the years then ended and for the period August 26,
1998 (inception) to May 31, 2011. These consolidated financial statements are
the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express
an opinion on these consolidated 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 audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial
statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a
test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and
significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall
financial statement presentation. We believe that our 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 consolidated financial positions of Sky
Harvest Windpower corp. as of May 31, 2011 and 2010, and the consolidated
results of its operation and its cash flows for the years then ended and for the
period August 26, 1998 (inception) to May 31, 2011 in conformity with U.S.
generally accepted accounting principles.
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the
Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the
consolidated financial statements, the Company's losses from operations raise
substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. The
consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might
result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Sky Harvest Windpower Corp.
(A Development Stage Company)
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
May 31, 2011
(Expressed in US Dollars)
1. Organization and Description of Business
Sky Harvest Windpower Corp. (the "Company") was incorporated in the State of
Nevada on February 25, 2005. The Company is a Development Stage Company, as
defined by Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards
Codification ("ASC") 915, DEVELOPMENT STAGE ENTITIES. Its activities to date
have been limited to capital formation, organization, and development of its
business plan for the exploration and development of wind power projects in
Canada.
Effective July 13, 2009, the Company acquired all the outstanding common stock
of Sky Harvest Windpower (Saskatchewan) Corp. ("Sky Harvest - Saskatchewan"), a
private company incorporated under the laws of Canada.
On September 1, 2009, the Company completed a merger with its wholly-owned
inactive subsidiary, Sky Harvest Windpower Corp., a Nevada corporation, which
was incorporated solely to effect a change in the Company's name. As a result,
the Company changed its name from Keewatin Windpower Corp. to Sky Harvest
Windpower Corp.
These consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern
basis, which implies the Company will continue to realize its assets and
discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has
never generated revenues since inception and has never paid any dividends and is
unlikely to pay dividends or generate earnings in the immediate or foreseeable
future. The continuation of the Company as a going concern is dependent upon the
continued financial support from its shareholders, the ability of the Company to
obtain necessary equity financing to continue operations, the successful
exploitation of economically recoverable electricity in its wind power projects,
and the attainment of profitable operations. As at May 31, 2011, the Company has
accumulated losses of $6,137,527 since inception. These factors raise
substantial doubt regarding the Company's ability to continue as a going
concern. These consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments
to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts and
classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be
unable to continue as a going concern.
Management plans to raise additional funds through debt and equity offerings.
Management has yet to decide what type of offering the Company will use or how
much capital the Company will attempt to raise and on what terms. There is
however no assurance that the Company will be able to raise any additional
capital through any type of offering on terms acceptable to the Company.
2. Significant Accounting Polices
a. Basis of Accounting
The Company's consolidated financial statements are prepared using the accrual
method of accounting. These consolidated statements include the accounts of the
Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries Keewatin Windpower Inc. and Sky
Harvest - Saskatchewan. All significant intercompany transactions and balances
have been eliminated. The Company has elected a May 31 year-end.
b. Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with an original
maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

(A Development Stage Company)
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
May 31, 2011
(Expressed in US Dollars)
2. Significant Accounting Polices (continued) c. Marketable Securities
The Company defines marketable securities as income yielding securities that can
be readily converted into cash. Examples of marketable securities include
Treasury and agency obligations, commercial paper, corporate notes and bonds,
time deposits with an original maturity greater than 3 months, foreign notes and
certificates of deposit. The Company accounts for investments in debt and equity
instruments under ASC 320, INVESTMENTS - DEBT AND EQUITY. The Company follows
the guidance provided by ASC 320 to assess whether our investments with
unrealized loss positions are other than temporarily impaired. Realized gains
and losses and declines in value judged to be other than temporary are
determined based on the specific identification method and are reported in other
income (expense). Management determines the appropriate classification of such
securities at the time of purchase and re-evaluates such classification as of
each balance sheet date. d. Fair Value Measurements
ASC 820, FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS AND DISCLOSURES, defines fair value as the
price that would be received from selling an asset or paid to transfer a
liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the
measurement date. In determining fair value for assets and liabilities required
or permitted to be recorded at fair value, the Company considers the principal
or most advantageous market in which it would transact and it considers
assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or
liability.
FAIR VALUE HIERARCHY
ASC 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy that requires an entity to maximize
the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when
measuring fair value. A financial instrument's categorization within the fair
value hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to
the fair value measurement. ASC 820 establishes three levels of inputs that may
be used to measure fair value:
LEVEL 1
Level 1 applies to assets and liabilities for which there are quoted prices in
active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Valuations are based on
quoted prices that are readily and regularly available in an active market and
do not entail a significant degree of judgment.
LEVEL 2
Level 2 applies to assets and liabilities for which there are other than Level 1
observable inputs such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in
active markets, quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets
with insufficient volume or infrequent transactions (less active markets), or
model-derived valuations in which significant inputs are observable or can be
derived principally from, or corroborated by, observable market data. Level 2
instruments require more management judgment and subjectivity as compared to
Level 1 instruments. For instance: o Determining which instruments are most
similar to the instrument being priced requires management to identify a sample
of similar securities based on the coupon rates, maturity, issuer, credit rating
and instrument type, and subjectively select an individual security or multiple
securities that are deemed most similar to the security being priced; and o
Determining whether a market is considered active requires management judgment.
LEVEL 3
Level 3 applies to assets and liabilities for which there are unobservable
inputs to the valuation methodology that are significant to the measurement of
the fair value of the assets or liabilities. The determination of fair value for
Level 3 instruments requires the most management judgment and subjectivity.
The Company believes the fair value of its financial instruments consisting of
cash, other receivables, accounts payable, amounts due to related parties and
notes payable approximate their carrying values due to the relatively short
maturity of these instruments.

2. Significant Accounting Polices (continued) e. Equipment
(i) Amortization Methods and Rates
Equipment is carried at cost. Depreciation is computed using a straight-line
method over the estimated useful lives of the depreciable property, which range
from 3 to 5 years. Management evaluates useful lives regularly in order to
determine recoverability taking into consideration current technological
conditions. Maintenance and repairs are charged to expenses as incurred;
additions and betterments are capitalized. Upon retirement or disposal of any
item of equipment, the cost and related accumulated depreciation of the disposed
assets is removed, and any resulting gain or loss is credited or charged to
operations. Costs included in wind equipment are under construction and will be
amortized over their useful life on a straight-line basis once they are put into
use.
(ii) Asset Impairment
The Company performs impairment tests on its property and equipment when events
or changes in circumstances occur that indicate the carrying value of an asset
may not be recoverable. Estimated future cash flows are calculated using
estimated future prices and operating and capital costs on an undiscounted
basis. When the carrying value of the property and equipment exceeds estimated
future cash flows, the asset is impaired. An impairment loss is recorded to the
extent the carrying value exceeds the discounted value of the estimated future
cash flows.
(iii)Repairs and Maintenance
Repairs and maintenance costs are charged to expense as incurred, except when
these repairs significantly extend the life of an asset or result in an
operating improvement. In these instances, the portion of these repairs relating
to the betterment is capitalized as part of property and equipment.
f. Long Lived Assets
INTANGIBLE ASSETS
In accordance with ASC 350, INTANGIBLES - GOODWILL AND OTHER, goodwill is
required to be tested for impairment on an annual basis, or more frequently if
certain indicators arise, using the guidance specifically provided, and
purchased intangible assets other than goodwill are required to be amortized
over their useful lives unless there lives are determined to be indefinite.
Management reviews intangible assets at least annually, and on an interim basis
when conditions require, evaluates events or changes in circumstances that may
indicate impairment in the carrying amount of such assets. An impairment loss is
recognized in the statement of operations in the period that the related asset
is deemed to be impaired.
In accordance with ASC 360, PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT, the Company tests
long-lived assets or asset groups for recoverability when events or changes in
circumstances indicate that their carrying amount may not be recoverable.
Circumstances which could trigger a review include, but are not limited to:
significant decreases in the market price of the asset; significant adverse
changes in the business climate or legal factors; accumulation of costs
significantly in excess of the amount originally expected for the acquisition or
construction of the asset; current period cash flow or operating losses combined
with a history of losses or a forecast of continuing losses associated with the
use of the asset; and current expectation that the asset will more likely than
not be sold or disposed significantly before the end of its estimated useful
life.
Recoverability is assessed based on the carrying amount of the asset and its
fair value which is generally determined based on the sum of the undiscounted
cash flows expected to result from the use and the eventual disposal of the
asset, as well as specific appraisal in certain instances. An impairment loss is
recognized when the carrying amount is not recoverable and exceeds fair value.

2. Significant Accounting Polices (continued)
g. Income Taxes
Income taxes are provided in accordance with ASC 740, INCOME TAXES. A deferred
tax asset or liability is recorded for all temporary differences between
financial and tax reporting and net operating loss carry forwards. Deferred tax
expense (benefit) results from the net change during the year of deferred tax
assets and liabilities.
Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of
management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred
tax assets will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are
adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of
enactment.
h. Foreign Currency Translation
The functional currency of the Company's Canadian subsidiaries is the applicable
local currency. The functional currency is translated into U.S. dollars for
balance sheet accounts using current exchange rates in effect as of the balance
sheet date and for revenue and expense accounts and cash flow items using a
weighted-average exchange rate during the reporting period. Adjustments
resulting from translation are included in accumulated comprehensive income
(loss), a separate component of shareholders' equity (deficit).
Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated
using the exchange rate prevailing at the balance sheet date. Gains and losses
arising on translation or settlement of foreign currency denominated
transactions or balances are included in the determination of income. Foreign
currency transactions are primarily undertaken in Canadian dollars. The Company
has not, to the date of these consolidated financial statements, entered into
derivative instruments to offset the impact of foreign currency fluctuations.
i. Basic Earnings (Loss) per Share
The Company computes net income (loss) per share in accordance with ASC 260,
EARNINGS PER SHARE. ASC 260 specifies the computation, presentation and
disclosure requirements for earnings (loss) per share for entities with publicly
held common stock. Basic net earnings (loss) per share amounts are computed by
dividing the net earnings (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares
outstanding. Diluted earnings (loss) per share are the same as basic earnings
(loss) per share due to the lack of dilutive items in the Company.
j. Use of Estimates
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America
requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the
reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets
and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the
reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the periods presented. Actual
results could differ from those estimates.
Significant estimates made by management are, among others, realizability of
long-lived assets, deferred taxes and stock option valuation. Management reviews
its estimates on a quarterly basis and, where necessary, makes adjustments
prospectively.
k. Stock-Based Compensation
The Company records stock-based compensation in accordance with ASC 718,
COMPENSATION - STOCK BASED COMPENSATION, and ASC 505-50, EQUITY BASED PAYMENTS
TO NON-EMPLOYEES, using the fair value method. All transactions in which goods
or services are the consideration received for the issuance of equity
instruments are accounted for based on the fair value of the consideration
received or the fair value of the equity instrument issued, whichever is more
reliably measurable. Equity instruments issued to employees and the cost of the
services received as consideration are measured and recognized based on the fair
value of the equity instruments issued.

l. Website Development Costs
The Company capitalizes website development costs in accordance with ASC 350,
INTANGIBLES - GOODWILL AND OTHER, whereby costs related to the preliminary
project stage of development are expensed and costs related to the application
development stage are capitalized. Any additional costs for upgrades and
enhancements which result in additional functionality will be capitalized.
Capitalized costs will be amortized based on their estimated useful life over
three years. Internal costs related to the development of website content are
charged to operations as incurred.
m. Comprehensive Income
ASC 220, COMPREHENSIVE INCOME, establishes standards for the reporting and
display of comprehensive income and its components in the consolidated financial
statements. As at May 31, 2011 and 2010, the Company`s only component of
comprehensive income (loss) was foreign currency translation adjustments.
3. Recent Accounting Pronouncements
The Company has implemented all new accounting pronouncements that are in effect
and that may impact its financial statements and 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.

ITEM 9. CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND
FINANCIAL MATTERS
None
ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
A. DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
As required by paragraph (b) of Rules 13a-15 or 15d-15 under the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, the Company's principal executive officer and principal
financial officer evaluated the Company's disclosure controls and procedures (as
defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act) for the period
covered by this Annual Report on Form 10-K as of our fiscal year end, May 31,
2011. Based on this evaluation, this officer concluded that as of the end of the
period covered by this Annual Report on Form 10-K, these disclosure controls and
procedures were adequate to ensure that the information required to be disclosed
by the Company in reports it files or submits under the Exchange Act is
recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified
in the rules and forms of the Securities and Exchange Commission and include
controls and procedures designed to ensure that such information is accumulated
and communicated to the Company's management, including the Company's principal
executive officer and principal financial officer, to allow timely decisions
regarding required disclosure.
Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of
controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues, if any, within
the Company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities
that judgments in decision-making can be faulty and that breakdowns can occur
because of simple error or mistake.
B. MANAGEMENT'S REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING
Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal
control over our financial reporting. In order to evaluate the effectiveness of
internal control over financial reporting, as required by Section 404 of the
Sarbanes-Oxley Act, management has conducted an assessment, including testing,
using the criteria in the Internal Control - Integrated Framework, issued by the
Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission ("COSO").
Our system of internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide
reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the
preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles. Because of its inherent limitations,
internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect
misstatements.
Based on our evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer
concluded that our internal controls over financial reporting were not effective
as of May 31, 2011 and were subject to material weaknesses.
A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in
internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable
possibility that a material misstatement of the company's annual or interim
financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. We
have identified the following material weaknesses in our internal control over
financial reporting using the criteria established in the COSO:
1. Failing to have an audit committee or other independent committee that is
independent of management to assess internal control over financial
reporting; and
42
2. Failing to have a director that qualifies as an audit committee financial
expert as defined in Item 407(d)(5)(ii) of Regulation S-K.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting
may not prevent or detect misstatements. In addition, projections of any
evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that
controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions and that the
degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
This Annual Report does not include an attestation report of our independent
registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial
reporting. Our internal control over financial reporting was not subject to
attestation by our independent registered public accounting firm pursuant to
temporary rules of the SEC that permit us to provide only management's report in
this Annual Report.
C. CHANGES IN INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING.
During the fiscal year ended May 31, 2011, our internal control over financial
reporting was subject to changes relating to the implementation of financial
recording and disclosure timelines necessary to ensure that the Company is able
to meet regulatory deadlines for financial disclosure. As well, the Company
implemented monitoring and controls to detect unauthorized financial
transactions by management.

COMPLIANCE WITH SECTION 16(A) OF THE EXCHANGE ACT
Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires our executive officers and directors
and persons who own more than 10% of a registered class of our equity securities
to file with the SEC initial statements of beneficial ownership, reports of
changes in ownership and annual reports concerning their ownership of our common
stock and other equity securities, on Forms 3, 4 and 5 respectively. Executive
45
officers, directors and greater than 10% shareholders are required by the SEC
regulations to furnish us with copies of all Section 16(a) reports that they
file.
Based solely on our review of the copies of such forms received by us, or
written representations from certain reporting persons, we believe that all
filing requirements applicable to our officers, directors and greater than 10%
beneficial owners were complied with.
CODE OF ETHICS
We adopted a Code of Ethics applicable to all of our directors, officers,
employees and consultants, which is a "code of ethics" as defined by applicable
rules of the SEC. If we make any amendments to our Code of Ethics other than
technical, administrative, or other non-substantive amendments, or grant any
waivers, including implicit waivers, from a provision of our Code of Ethics to
our chief executive officer, chief financial officer, or certain other finance
executives, we will disclose the nature of the amendment or waiver, its
effective date and to whom it applies in a Current Report on Form 8-K filed with
the SEC.
CORPORATE GOVERNANCE
NOMINATING AND COMPENSATION COMMITTEES
We do not have standing nominating or compensation committees, or committees
performing similar functions. Our board of directors believes that it is not
necessary to have a standing compensation committee at this time because the
functions of such committee are adequately performed by our board of directors.
Our board of directors also is of the view that it is appropriate for us not to
have a standing nominating committee because our board of directors has
performed and will perform adequately the functions of a nominating committee.
Our board of directors has not adopted a charter for the nomination committee.
There has not been any defined policy or procedure requirements for stockholders
to submit recommendations or nomination for directors. Our board of directors
does not believe that a defined policy with regard to the consideration of
candidates recommended by stockholders is necessary at this time because we
believe that, given the early stages of our development, a specific nominating
policy would be premature and of little assistance until our business operations
are at a more advanced level. There are no specific, minimum qualifications that
our board of directors believes must be met by a candidate recommended by our
board of directors. The process of identifying and evaluating nominees for
director typically begins with our board of directors soliciting professional
firms with whom we have an existing business relationship, such as law firms,
accounting firms or financial advisory firms, for suitable candidates to serve
as directors. It is followed by our board of directors' review of the
candidates' resumes and interview of candidates. Based on the information
gathered, our board of directors then makes a decision on whether to recommend
the candidates as nominees for director. We do not pay any fee to any third
party or parties to identify or evaluate or assist in identifying or evaluating
potential nominee.
AUDIT COMMITTEE
We do not have a standing audit committee at the present time. Our board of
directors has determined that we do not have a board member that qualifies as an
"audit committee financial expert" as defined in Item 407(d)(5)(ii) of
Regulation S-K.
We believe that our board of directors is capable of analyzing and evaluating
our financial statements and understanding internal controls and procedures for
financial reporting. The board of directors of our company does not believe that
46
it is necessary to have an audit committee because we believe that the functions
of an audit committee can be adequately performed by the board of directors. In
addition, we believe that retaining an independent director who would qualify as
an "audit committee financial expert" would be overly costly and burdensome and
is not warranted in our circumstances given the early stages of our development
and the fact that we have not generated any revenues from operations to date.
OTHER COMMITTEES
All proceedings of our board of directors for the year ended May 31, 2011 were
conducted by resolutions consented to in writing by our directors and filed with
the minutes of the proceedings of the board of directors. Our company currently
does not have nominating, compensation or audit committees or committees
performing similar functions nor does our company have a written nominating,
compensation or audit committee charter. Our board of directors believes that it
is not necessary to have such committees, at this time, because they can
adequately perform the functions of such committees.
Our company does not have any defined policy or procedural requirements for
shareholders to submit recommendations or nominations for directors. Our
director believes that, given the stage of our development, a specific
nominating policy would be premature and of little assistance until our business
operations develop to a more advanced level. Our company does not currently have
any specific or minimum criteria for the election of nominees to the Board of
Directors and we do not have any specific process or procedure for evaluating
such nominees. Our board of directors will assess all candidates, whether
submitted by management or shareholders, and make recommendations for election
or appointment.
A shareholder who wishes to communicate with our board of directors may do so by
directing a written request addressed to our President, at the address appearing
on the first page of this annual report.

ITEM 12. SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT AND
RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS
SECURITIES AUTHORIZED FOR ISSUANCE UNDER EQUITY COMPENSATION PLANS
Not applicable
SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS.
The following table reflects, as of September 8, 2011, the beneficial common
stock ownership of: (a) each of our directors, (b) each executive officer, (c)
each person known by us to be a beneficial holder of five percent (5%) or more
of our common stock, and (d) all of our executive officers and directors as a
group:
Beneficial ownership is determined in accordance with the rules of the SEC.
Shares of common stock subject to options currently exercisable or exercisable
within 60 days of September 8, 2011, are deemed outstanding for computing the
percentage ownership of the stockholder holding the options or warrants, but are
not deemed outstanding for computing the percentage ownership of any other
stockholder. Unless otherwise indicated in the footnotes to this table, we
believe stockholders named in the table have sole voting and sole investment
power with respect to the shares set forth opposite such stockholder's name.
Percentage of ownership is based on 31,702,016 shares of common stock
outstanding as of September 8, 2011.

----------
1. Under Rule 13d-3, a beneficial owner of a security includes any person who,
directly or indirectly, through any contract, arrangement, understanding,
relationship, or otherwise has or shares: (i) voting power, which includes
the power to vote, or to direct the voting of shares; and (ii) investment
power, which includes the power to dispose or direct the disposition of
shares. Certain shares may be deemed to be beneficially owned by more than
one person (if, for example, persons share the power to vote or the power
to dispose of the shares). In addition, shares are deemed to be
beneficially owned by a person if the person has the right to acquire the
50
shares (for example, upon exercise of an option) within 60 days of the date
as of which the information is provided. In computing the percentage
ownership of any person, the amount of shares outstanding is deemed to
include the amount of shares beneficially owned by such person (and only
such person) by reason of these acquisition rights.
2. The percentage of class is based on 31,702,016 shares of common stock
issued and outstanding as of September 8, 2011. This total includes
15,680,016 shares of common stock that are reserved for issuance in
exchange for certain exchangeable securities of the Company's subsidiary
Keewatin Windpower Inc.
3. Total consists of: 9,114,113 shares of the Company's common stock
beneficially owned by Mr. Iny and incentive stock options to purchase up to
1,233,334 shares of the Company's common stock.
4. Total consists of: 9,357,128 shares of the Company's common stock
beneficially owned by Mr. Yanke and incentive stock options to purchase up
to 525,000 shares of the Company's common stock.
5. Total consists of: 420,000 shares of the Company's common stock
beneficially owned by Mr. Bauskin and incentive stock options to purchase
up to 525,000 shares of the Company's common stock.
6. Total consists of incentive stock options to purchase up to 350,000 shares
of the Company's common stock.
ITEM 13. CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS, AND DIRECTOR
INDEPENDENCE
TRANSACTIONS WITH RELATED PERSONS, PROMOTERS AND CERTAIN CONTROL PERSONS
Other than as listed below, we have not entered into or participated in any
transactions or a series of similar transactions, wherein the amount involved
exceeded $120,000 or one percent of our total assets at year end for the last
three completed fiscal years, in which any of our officers, directors, persons
nominated for these positions, beneficial owners of 5% or more of our common
stock, family members of these persons or any related person of our company had
a direct or indirect material interest.
1. The Company entered into a letter of agreement dated March 26, 2007 to
acquire 100% of the issued and outstanding common shares of Sky Harvest
Windpower Corp. ("Sky Harvest - Saskatchewan"), a private Canadian company
incorporated under the federal laws of Canada, in consideration for 17,343,516
restricted shares of the Company's common stock. Our president, William Iny, was
a director and a principal shareholder of Sky Harvest - Saskatchewan. At the
time of the acquisition, our former president, Chris Craddock, was also a
director and officer of Sky Harvest - Saskatchewan. As well, Greg Yanke, a
former director of the Company at the time, was a controlling shareholder of Sky
Harvest - Saskatchewan. Sky Harvest - Saskatchewan holds the rights to construct
a wind power facility on approximately 15,000 acres of land located near the
town of Birsay in Southwestern Saskatchewan.
On July 13, 2009, the Company completed the acquisition of all of the issued and
outstanding shares of Sky Harvest - Saskatchewan. Closing of the acquisition
(the "Transaction") was completed in accordance with the terms and conditions of
the Share Exchange Agreement between the Company, Keewatin Windpower Inc.,
("ExchangeCo") a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, Sky Harvest-
Saskatchewan and all of the shareholders of Sky Harvest - Saskatchewan dated for
reference May 11, 2009.
Pursuant to the terms of the Share Exchange Agreement, each shareholder of Sky
Harvest - Saskatchewan received 1.5 shares in the capital of the Company for
each one common share of Sky Harvest - Saskatchewan he or she held prior to
closing. In exchange for all of the issued and outstanding shares of Sky
Harvest- Saskatchewan, on July 13, 2009 the Company issued a total of:
51
(i) 220,500 shares of its common stock to Sky Harvest - Saskatchewan
shareholders resident in the U.S. pursuant to Rule 506 of Regulation D of
the Securities Act of 1933 (the "1933 Act"), each of whom represented that
they were an "accredited investor" as such term is defined in Regulation D;
(ii) 720,000 shares of its common stock to Sky Harvest- Saskatchewan
shareholders pursuant to Regulation S of the 1933 Act, each of whom
represented that they were not a "U.S. person" as such term is defined in
Regulation S of the 1933 Act; and
(iii)16,400,016 exchangeable shares of its subsidiary ExchangeCo, each of which
is exchangeable into one share of the Company in accordance with the terms
and conditions of the Share Exchange Agreement, the Voting and Exchange
Trust Agreement and the Exchangeable Share Support Agreement entered into
concurrently with the closing of the Transaction. The exchangeable shares
were issued to Sky Harvest - Saskatchewan shareholders in order to minimize
any adverse tax consequences for Canadian shareholders of Sky Harvest-
Saskatchewan.
In connection with the Transaction, the Company received a fairness opinion
prepared by an independent valuator. Following closing of the Transaction, the
Company had 13,332,000 shares of common stock issued and outstanding and
16,400,016 shares of its common stock reserved for issuance upon conversion of
the exchangeable shares. Our director and officer of the Company received an
aggregate of 4,666,500 exchangeable shares in connection with the transaction.
The current director of the Company is also a director and officer of Sky
Harvest - Saskatchewan.
2. During the year ended May 31, 2011, the Company paid or accrued $63,241 (year
ended May 31, 2010 - $55,338) in management fees to a company owned by William
Iny, our president.
3. During the year ended May 31, 2011, the Company entered into a loan agreement
with Greg Yanke, who subsequently became one of our directors, whereby he agreed
to loan $100,300 to us. A total of $27,000 of the loan bears interest at a rate
of 15% per annum. The remain loan amount is non-interest bearing.
4. During the year ended May 31, 2010, the Company incurred $30,903 (year ended
May 31, 2010 - $113,855) to Chris Craddock, the Company's former president.
DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCE
Our common stock is quoted on the FINRA bulletin board interdealer quotation
system, which does not have director independence requirements. Under NASDAQ
rule 4200(a)(15), a director is not considered to be independent if he or she is
also an executive officer or employee of the corporation. Three of our four
directors are considered independent.
EMPLOYMENT CONTRACTS AND TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT AND CHANGE IN CONTROL
ARRANGEMENTS
We have not entered into an employment agreement or consulting agreement with
our board of directors and executive officers.
52
PENSION, RETIREMENT OR SIMILAR BENEFIT PLANS
There are no arrangements or plans in which we provide pension, retirement or
similar benefits for directors or executive officers. We have no material bonus
or profit sharing plans pursuant to which cash or non-cash compensation is or
may be paid to our directors or executive officers, except that stock options
may be granted at the discretion of the Board of Directors or a committee
thereof.
We have no plans or arrangements in respect of remuneration received or that may
be received by our executive officers to compensate such officers in the event
of termination of employment (as a result of resignation, retirement, change of
control) or a change of responsibilities following a change of control, where
the value of such compensation exceeds $60,000 per executive officer.
ITEM 14. PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTING FEES AND SERVICES

Park, CPA, PhD., for professional services rendered for the audit of our annual
consolidated financial statements included in our annual report on Form 10-K
were:
2011 $25,000
2010 $20,000
AUDIT RELATED FEES
For the years ended May 31, 2011 and 2010, the aggregate fees billed for
assurance and related services by Chang G. Park, CPA, Ph. D. relating to the
performance of the audit of our financial statements which are not reported
under the caption "Audit Fees" above, was:
2011 Nil
2010 Nil
TAX FEES
For the years ended May 31, 2011 and 2010, the aggregate fees billed by Chang G.
Park, CPA, PhD. for other non-audit professional services, other than those
services listed above, totalled:
2011 Nil
2010 Nil
We do not use Chang G. Park, CPA, PhD. for financial information system design
and implementation. These services, which include designing or implementing a
system that aggregates source data underlying the financial statements or
generates information that is significant to our financial statements, are
provided internally or by other service providers. We do not engage Chang G.
Park, CPA, PhD. to provide compliance outsourcing services.
Effective May 6, 2003, the Securities and Exchange Commission adopted rules that
require that before Chang G. Park, CPA, PhD. is engaged by us to render any
auditing or permitted non-audit related service, the engagement be:
53
* approved by our board of directors who are capable of analyzing and
evaluating financial information; or
* entered into pursuant to pre-approval policies and procedures
established by the board of directors, provided the policies and
procedures are detailed as to the particular service, the board of
directors is informed of each service, and such policies and
procedures do not include delegation of the board of directors'
responsibilities to management.
The board of directors pre-approves all services provided by our independent
auditors. All of the above services and fees were reviewed and approved by the
board of directors either before or after the respective services were rendered.
The board of directors has considered the nature and amount of fees billed by
Lancaster & David and believes that the provision of services for activities
unrelated to the audit is compatible with maintaining Chang G. Park's
independence.
