CAUTIONARY NOTICE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS


We caution readers that certain important factors may affect our actual results and could cause such results to differ materially from any forward-looking statements that we make in this report. For this purpose, any statements that are not statements of historical fact may be deemed to be forward-looking statements. This report contains statements that constitute “forward-looking statements.” These forward-looking statements can be identified by the use of predictive, future-tense or forward-looking terminology, such as “believes,” “anticipates,” “expects,” “estimates,” “plans,” “may,” “will,” or similar terms. These statements appear in a number of places in this report and include statements regarding our intent, belief or current expectations with respect to many things. Some of these things are:


·

trends affecting our financial condition or results of operations for our limited history;

·

our business and growth strategies;

·

our technology;

·

the Internet; and

·

our financing plans.


We caution readers that any such forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve significant risks and uncertainties. In fact, actual results most likely will differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements as a result of various factors. Some factors that could adversely affect actual results and performance include:


·

our limited operating history;

·

our lack of sales to date;

·

our future requirements for additional capital funding;

·

the failure of our technology and products to perform as specified;

·

the discontinuance of growth in the use of the Internet;

·

our failure to integrate certain acquired businesses with our business;

·

the enactment of new adverse government regulations; and

·

the development of better technology and products by others.


You should carefully consider and evaluate all of these factors. In addition, we do not undertake to update forward-looking statements after we file this report with the Securities and Exchange Commission, even if new information, future events or other circumstances have made them incorrect or misleading.

PART I


Item 1. Business.


Our Corporate History


VSUS Technologies Incorporated (“the Company”) was incorporated in Delaware on September 20, 2000. Following its establishment, the Company organized, at the end of 2000, two wholly-owned subsidiaries: Safe Mail International Ltd., a company registered in the British Virgin Islands and Safe Mail Development Ltd., a company registered in Israel. As of August 31, 2004, the Company established two additional wholly-owned subsidiaries: VSUS Secured Services, Inc., a Delaware corporation and First Info Network, Inc., a Delaware corporation. Since inception, and until a recent shift in the focus of its business operations, the Company had been a developer and marketer of highly secure communications systems for use over the Internet.


Effective as of April 13, 2005, the Company reorganized its business by transferring substantially all of its business assets into VSUS Secured Services, Inc., its wholly-owned subsidiary. Consequently, its two subsidiaries, Safe Mail Development Ltd. and Safe Mail International Ltd., became subsidiaries of VSUS Secured Services, Inc.


On April 14, 2005, VSUS Technologies Incorporated acquired 1stAlerts, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“1stAlerts”), a company that develops, markets and sells software applications, when 1stAlerts merged with and into the Company's wholly-owned Delaware subsidiary, First Info Network, Inc., hereinafter referred to as the “1stAlerts Acquisition”. At the time of the 1stAlerts Acquisition, among other things: (i) the Company exchanged 13,000,000 shares of its Common Stock, and 200 shares of its Series B Participating Preferred Stock, for all of the issued and outstanding shares of capital stock of 1stAlerts, (ii) the Company issued 1,861,841 of its Class A Warrants in exchange for warrants to purchase shares of Common Stock of 1stAlerts, (iii) the Company assumed $4,565,000 of promissory and convertible notes from 1stAlerts, and (iv) certain officers and directors of 1stAlerts became officers and directors of the Company. The 200 shares of series B Participating Preferred Stock, the 1,861,841 Class A Warrants which were never registered and a portion of the Convertible Notes were cancelled as a part of the June 24, 2009 Rescission Agreement with 1st Alerts. The Company returned all of the Capitol stock of 1st Alerts as part of the 2009 Rescission Agreement. No remaining 1st Alerts Officers and Directors currently serve as Officers or Directors of the Company.


Each of the 1,861,841 Class A Warrants the Company issued in connection with the 1stAlerts Acquisition have a term of a term of two years from the effective date of a registration statement the Company's obligated to file to register, among other of its securities, the shares of the Company's Common Stock underlying these warrants, and an exercise price of $0.19. The class A Warrants and the registration obligation of the company have been negated and cancelled pursuant to the 2009 Rescission Agreement.


1st Alerts agrees that as consideration for the execution of this Rescission Agreement, it shall: (a) relinquish and forever waive any ownership claim or right to the 13,000,000 shares of VSUT common stock issued to the shareholders of 1st, or their designees pursuant to the terms of the Acquisition Agreement; including 200 shares of participating preferred shares issued subsequent to the Acquisition Agreement, and (b) to delivered forthwith to VSUT said shares, medallion guaranteed, with a notarized third party release, and notarized corporate resolution from 1st.   


Following our acquisition of 1stAlerts, we shifted our business operations to primarily focus on the 1stAlerts business model. In connection with this change, we have terminated our operations in Israel.


In June 2005, we were introduced to NetCurrents Information Services, Inc. (“NetCurrents”), which owns a patented REAL-TIME search engine technology called “FIRST.” Our management believed that incorporating FIRST into the company's MyOneScreen software application would give it a competitive advantage over its competitors. On June 9, 2005, we entered into a strategic relationship with NetCurrents, pursuant to which NetCurrents granted us a 50-year license to modify and integrate NetCurrent’s patented FIRST (Fast Internet Real-Time Search Technology) Internet search technology (the "NetCurrents Technology") into our products.


 In March 2006, we entered into a Memo of Understanding with Scientigo, Inc. (“Scientigo”), to integrate their patented TIGO Artificial Intelligence technology with FIRST. Scientigo is an emerging technology company that invented, patented and licenses the next-generation of intelligent document recognition, intelligent enterprise content management and intelligent search technologies. Their patented TIGO technology creates order from chaos by using artificial intelligence, machine learning, rule-based systems and patented XML technology to make it faster, easier and less costly to capture, file, organize and retrieve any type of information.

In March of 2009  we entered into an LOI with My Vintage Baby, Inc. the company was going to acquire a majority interest in MVBY. Due to certain circumstances the company was not able to complete the acquisition. In September 2009 the company signed an LOI with ZenZuu, Inc., a leader in the internet social networking field; the company is in the process of completing that acquisition. The company is also currently seeking, and entertaining businesses with internet technology and other Intellectual properties that fulfill and complete our current business plan.


On February 24, 2011, VSUS Technologies, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), closed the Final Purchase Agreement (the “Agreement”) with Erasmo Alfredo Almanza Latorre, a Columbian Citizen. The agreement provides for the acquisition of LA TABAQUERA COAL MINE (LA TABAQUERA) with Concession Contract No. ILE-09551, granted for the Exploration and Exploitation of a Carbon Mineral and other Grantable Mineral Deposits by the Colombian Institute of Geology and Mining.


Pursuant to the Agreement and addendum, the Company purchased 100% of LA TABAQUERA and any and all of  its subsidiaries. The consideration paid to Erasmo Almanza is an aggregate of 5,606,410 full paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock of the Company (the “Shares”), for 100% of all of the outstanding shares of LA TABAQUERA, and $100,000.00 in cash payments.


Overview


About VSUS Technologies, Inc. (Coking Coal) Burns Hotter


Preferred By Steel Mills (VSUT.PK)


VSUS Technologies is a growing company specializing in acquisitions of revenue generating businesses. The company has daily interactions with possible acquisition targets looking to expand our operations and the company revenue stream. We have acquired a mining concession by the name of La Tabaquera in Colombia. Over the past year the Company has continued to search for the right business plan and business model to add to the company's overall value. With core values of environmental and capital stewardship, we will strive to become good environmental neighbors and provide all shareholders operating and financial transparency. Our Company will have three revenue producing business units in Colombia: coking and coal mining in Guaduas, Colombia, docks and river transportation along the Magdalena River, and a coal export terminal on the northern coast of Colombia. The Company is also exploring allegiances with U.S. universities to study capturing Coal Bed Methane (CBM) in Colombia.


Industry Background


The company has moved into the coal industry in Colombia, due to the rising prices in oil worldwide we feel that this industry is beneficial to our company and our strategy to move forward while drawing attention from the public to invest in a promising industry and company.


About Guaduas, Colombia


Our first mining acquisition is in the town of Guaduas, Colombia.  VSUS Technologies will become a responsible neighbor in Guaduas.  The company will sponsor health centers, schools, and many other causes when needed.  Under Colombian law, mining companies are required to  donate for social benefit.  Mr. Erasmo Almanza, shareholder, has strong ties to the community and expects VSUS Technologies to have the full faith and support of the Town of Guaduas.  Guaduas is a municipality of 35,000 people with excellent electrical and water supply and an ample workforce.   For more information on Guaduas, click...  http://translate.google.com.co/translate?u=http://www.guaduas-cundinamarca.gov.co&hl=es&ie=UTF-8&sl=es&tl=en. VSUS Technologies, Inc. (VSUT.PK), through its wholly owned subsidiary, will acquire, explore and develop coal mining concessions in Colombia.   Our first acquisition, La Tabaquera Concession Contract No. ILE-09551 (“The Concession”) granted for the Exploration and Exploitation of a Carbon Mineral and other Grantable Mineral Deposits by the Colombian Institute of Geology and Mining (INGEOMINAS), will allow us to enter the growing Colombian coal mining industry.  We will implement new US mining technologies to  provide innovative approaches to geological engineering, and clean coal mining in Colombia.


Colombia Coal Sector


According to the World Energy Council, Colombia had 6,814 million short tons (MMst) of recoverable coal reserves in 2007, consisting largely of bituminous coal and a small amount of metallurgical coal. The country has the second-largest coal reserves in South America, slightly behind Brazil.  Colombia’s coal is relatively clean-burning, with a sulfur content of less than 1 percent.   Over the past decade, production has more than doubled, reaching 86.7 MMst in 2008. Colombia’s coal consumption was only 5.2 MMst in 2008, leaving most of the country’s production available for export; in 2008, Colombia was the fourth-largest net coal exporter in the world.



6





Sector Organization


Colombia completed the privatization of its coal sector in 2004 with the closing of Minercol, the former state-owned coal company. The largest coal producer in Colombia is the Carbones del Cerrejon consortium, composed of Anglo-American, BHP Billiton, and Glencore. Drummond  Co. operates the second-largest coal mine in Colombia, La Loma producing about 20 MMst per year.  

Exports


Currently, most Colombia coal exports go to Europe, North America, and Latin America, as the vast majority of Colombia’s coal producing and exporting infrastructure is located on the Caribbean coast. Coal is an important part of the Colombian economy: in 2009, coal represented about one-quarter of total export earnings, and mining taxes and royalties paid to the Colombian government exceeded $1 billion. During the first nine months of 2009, the United States imported 13.6 MMst of coal from Colombia, about 80 percent of total U.S. coal imports. 


According to media reports, Colombia began exporting sizable quantities of coal to Asian markets, especially China, in 2009. A combination of higher prices in Asia, lower freight costs, and falling exports to the United States created the conditions for such an opportunity. It is possible that the expansion of the Panama Canal (currently slated for completion by 2015) could facilitate greater exports of Colombian coal to Asia in the future. 


Coal Bed Methane


Coal bed methane (CBM) is a gaseous hydrocarbon that occurs along with coal reserves. It is similar to natural gas and can be transported and used in similar ways.  CBM has the potential to dramatically increase Colombia’s proven natural gas reserves, facilitate greater domestic production, and potentially allow additional exports to neighboring countries. 

Employees


The Company’s team currently consists of three (3) employees and several independent contractors. Each management hire has been carefully selected to address immediate needs in particular functional areas, but also with consideration of the Company’s future needs during a period of expected rapid growth and expansion. Value is placed not only on outstanding credentials in specific areas of functional expertise, but also on cross-functionality, collegiality, a strong knowledge of content acquisition and distribution, along with hands-on experience in scaling operations from initial beta and development stage through successful commercial deployment.


Item 1A. Risk Factors.


There are many risks that may affect our company or the value of our Common Stock, including those described below. If any of these or other risks actually occur, our business, financial condition and operating results, as well as the trading price or value of our securities could be materially adversely affected and you may lose all or part of your investment.


We are a development stage company, and our limited operating history makes it difficult to evaluate our current business and prospects or to accurately predict our future revenues or results of operations. Our revenue and income potential are unproven, and our business plan is constantly evolving. The Internet is constantly changing and software technology is constantly improving. Therefore we may need to continue to modify our business plan to adapt to these changes. As a result of our being in the early stages of development, particularly in the emerging technology industry, we are more vulnerable to risks, uncertainties, expenses and difficulties than more established companies. If we cannot successfully address the risks associated with early stage development companies in emerging technologies, we may never achieve profitability and we may not be able to continue operations.


We may require additional capital to proceed with our long-term business plan. If we are unable to obtain such capital in future years, we may be unable to proceed with our long-term business plan.


Our future success depends, to a significant extent, on the continued services of our key personnel. Our loss of any of these key personnel most likely would have an adverse effect on our business.

The Sarbanes-Oxley Act requires public companies to maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time required. This includes controls and procedures to ensure that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including the principal executive officer and principal financial officer, so as to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure of such information. The Sarbanes-Oxley Act also requires documentation of internal control procedures, remediation as needed, and periodic testing of these controls. We are in the process of reviewing our internal controls with a view toward documenting the required controls and procedures, remediating existing deficiencies and adopting a testing plan. This process is in the initial stages. Because these controls are all designed to protect the interests of investors in our securities, without these elements, purchasers of our Common Stock in this offering would lack this protection until their absence is remedied.


Our operating results may prove unpredictable, and may fluctuate significantly.


Permits or licenses may be required from federal, state or local governmental authorities to operate or to sell certain coal material. No assurances can be given that such permits or licenses will be obtainable. We may be required to comply with future national and/or international legislation.


Risks relating to our Common Stock and other securities


Our Common Stock price may be volatile.


The market prices of securities of Coal Mining companies are volatile and sometimes reach unsustainable levels that bear no relationship to the past or present operating performance of such companies. Factors that may contribute to the volatility of the trading price of our Common Stock include, without limitation:


·

our quarterly results of operations;

·

the variance between our actual quarterly results of operations and predictions by stock analysts;

·

financial predictions and recommendations by stock analysts concerning Internet companies and companies competing in our market in general, and concerning us in particular;

·

public announcements of technical innovations relating to our business, new products or technology by us or our competitors, or acquisitions or strategic alliances by us or our competitors;

·

public reports concerning our products or technology or those of our competitors; and

·

the operating and stock price performance of other companies that investors or stock analysts may deem comparable to us. In addition to the foregoing factors, the trading prices for equity securities in the stock market in general.


Our Common Stock is tradable in the over-the-counter market and is quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board under the symbol “VSUT.” Many institutional and other investors refuse to invest in stocks that are traded at levels below the Nasdaq Small Cap Market, which could make our efforts to raise capital more difficult. In addition, the firms that make a market for our Common Stock could discontinue that role. OTC Bulletin Board stocks are often lightly traded or not traded at all on any given day. We cannot predict whether a more active market for our Common Stock will develop in the future. In the absence of an active trading market:


·

investors may have difficulty buying and selling or obtaining market quotations;

·

market visibility for our Common Stock may be limited; and

·

a lack of visibility for our Common Stock may have a depressive effect on the market price for our Common Stock.


Our current executive officers, directors and major stockholders own a significant percentage of our voting stock. As a result, they exercise significant control over our business affairs and policy.


As of the date hereof, our current executive officers, directors and holders of 5% or more of our outstanding Common Stock together beneficially owned approximately 68.41 of our outstanding Common Stock, assuming they exercised all of the currently vested stock options and warrants held by them. These stockholders are able to significantly influence all matters requiring approval by stockholders, including the election of directors and the approval of significant corporate transactions. This concentration of ownership may also have the effect of delaying, deterring or preventing a change in control and may make some transactions more difficult or impossible to complete without the support of these stockholders.



8





As of the date hereof, we had outstanding 50,344,097 shares of Common Stock of which approximately a large number are shares are “restricted securities” as that term is defined under Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933. These restricted shares are eligible for sale under Rule 144 at various times. We have entered into registration rights agreements requiring us to register the resale of certain shares of our issued and outstanding Common Stock. No prediction can be made as to the effect, if any, that sales of shares of Common Stock or the availability of such shares for sale will have on the market prices prevailing from time to time. Nevertheless, the possibility that substantial amounts of our Common Stock may be sold in the public market may adversely affect prevailing market prices for the Common Stock and could impair our ability to raise capital through the sale of our equity securities.


We have authorized 20,000,000 shares of preferred stock, 10,000,000 shares are issued, which may affect the likelihood of a change of control in our company.


Our board of directors has the authority, without further action by the stockholders, to issue 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock on such terms and with such rights, preferences and designations as it may determine, in its sole discretion. Such terms may include restricting dividends on our Common Stock, dilution of the voting power of our Common Stock, or impairing the liquidation rights of the holders of our Common Stock. The board has already authorized classes of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock and Series B Participating Preferred Stock.  Issuance of such preferred stock, depending on the rights, preferences and designations thereof, may have the effect of delaying, deterring or preventing a change in control.


We do not intend to pay dividends in the near future.


Our board of directors determines whether to pay dividends on our issued and outstanding shares. The declaration of dividends will depend upon our future earnings, our capital requirements, our financial condition and other relevant factors. Our board does not intend to declare any dividends on our shares for the foreseeable future.


Our Common Stock is a “penny stock,” as that term is defined in Rule 3a51-1 of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, because it is selling at a price below five dollars per share. In the future, if we are unable to list our Common Stock on Nasdaq, or a national securities exchange, or the per share sale price is not at least $5.00, our Common Stock may continue to be deemed to be a “penny stock.” Penny stocks are stocks:


·

with a price of less than five dollars per share;

·

that are not traded on a recognized national exchange;

·

whose prices are not quoted on the Nasdaq automated quotation system ; or

of issuers with net tangible assets less than (i) $2,000,000 if the issuer has been in continuous operation for at least three years; or (ii) $5,000,000 if in continuous operation for less than three years; or (iii) of issuers with average revenues of less than $6,000,000 for the last three years.


Section 15(g) of the Exchange Act, and Rule 15g-2 of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, require broker-dealers dealing in penny stocks to provide potential investors with a document disclosing the risks of penny stocks and to obtain a manually signed and dated written receipt of the document before effecting any transaction in a penny stock for the investor’s account. Moreover, Rule 15g-9 of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934 requires broker-dealers in penny stocks to approve the account of any investor for transactions in such stocks before selling any penny stock to that investor. This procedure requires the broker-dealer:


·

to obtain from the investor information concerning his or her financial situation, investment experience and investment objectives;

·

to determine reasonably, based on that information, that transactions in penny stocks are suitable for the investor and that the investor has sufficient knowledge and experience as to be reasonably capable of evaluating the risks of penny stock transactions;

·

to provide the investor with a written statement setting forth the basis on which the broker-dealer made the determination in (ii) above; and

·

to receive a signed and dated copy of such statement from the investor, confirming that it accurately reflects the investor’s financial situation, investment experience and investment objectives.


Compliance with these requirements may make it more difficult for holders of our Common Stock to resell their shares to third parties or to otherwise dispose of them.


Our restated certificate of incorporation, and Delaware law, contain provisions that could discourage an acquisition or change of control of our company.



9





Our restated certificate of incorporation authorizes our board of directors to issue preferred stock without stockholder approval. Provisions of our certificate of incorporation, such as the provision allowing our board of directors to issue preferred stock with rights more favorable than our Common Stock, could make it more difficult for a third party to acquire control of us, even if that change of control might benefit our stockholders. In addition, certain “anti-takeover” provisions in Delaware law may restrict the ability of our stockholders to authorize a merger, business combination or change of control.


Effect of Existing or Probable Governmental Regulations on Business


The integrated disclosure system for small business issuers adopted by the Securities and Exchange Commission in Release No. 34-30968 and effective as of August 13, 1992, substantially modified the information and financial requirements of a “Small Business Issuer,” defined to be an issuer that (i) has revenues of less than $25 million; (ii) is a U.S. or Canadian issuer, (iii) is not an investment company, and (iv) if a majority-owned subsidiary, the parent is also a small business issuer; provided, however, an entity is not a small business issuer if it has a public float (the aggregate market value of the issuer's outstanding securities held by non-affiliates) of $25 million or more. Our company is deemed to be a “small business issuer.”


The Securities and Exchange Commission, state securities commissions and the North American Securities Administrators Association, Inc. have expressed an interest in adopting policies that will streamline the registration process and make it easier for a small business issuer to have access to the public capital markets.


Sarbanes-Oxley Act


On July 30, 2002, President Bush signed into law the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (the “Sarbanes-Oxley Act”). The Sarbanes-Oxley Act imposes a wide variety of new regulatory requirements on publicly held companies and their insiders. Many of these requirements will affect us. For example:


·

Our principal executive officer and principal financial officer must now certify the accuracy of all of our periodic reports that contain financial statements;

·

Our periodic reports must disclose our conclusions about the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures; and

·

We may not make any loan to any director or executive officer and we may not materially modify any existing loans.


The Sarbanes-Oxley Act has required us to review our current procedures and policies to determine whether they comply with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and the new regulations promulgated thereunder. We will continue to monitor our compliance with all future regulations that are adopted under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and will take whatever actions are necessary to ensure that we are in compliance.


Item 2. Description of Property.


Our executive and operations offices are located in Canyon Country, California, and also in Bogota Colombia. The Company shares office space with other related parties.


Item 3. Legal Proceedings.


The company is not involved in any legal proceedings at the time of this filing.


Item 4. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.


During the year ended December 31, 2011, and subsequent periods through the date hereof, no matters were submitted to a vote of our stockholders, whether through the solicitation of proxies or otherwise.


PART II


Item 5. Market for Registrant’s Common Equity, Related Stockholder Matters and Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities.

Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.


The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto set forth in Item 7 of this Annual Report. In addition to historical information, this discussion and analysis contains forward-looking statements that involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions, which could cause actual results to differ materially from management's expectations. Factors that could cause differences include, but are not limited to, expected market demand for our products, as well as general conditions of the Internet security marketplace.


The company has moved into the coal industry in Colombia, due to the rising prices in oil worldwide we feel that this industry is beneficial to our company and our strategy to move forward while drawing attention from the public to invest in a promising industry and company.

We are a development stage enterprise. To date we have incurred significant losses from operations and, at December 31, 2011, had an accumulated deficit of approximately $24,000,000. At December 31, 2011 we had $49 of cash and cash equivalents. In 2003, 2004 and 2005, we raised an aggregate of approximately $3,943,000 in financing to fund our operations. Until such time as we generate sufficient revenues from operations, we will continue to be dependent on raising substantial amounts of additional capital through any one of a combination of debt offerings or equity offerings. There is no assurance that we will be able to raise additional capital when necessary.


Results of Operations


The Year Ended December 31, 2011 compared to the Year Ended December 31, 2010


Revenue: Revenue was $-0- in the year ended December 31, 2011, as compared to $800 in the year ended December 31, 2010.


General and Administrative Expenses: Selling, general and administrative expenses increased from $4,260 for the year ended December 31, 2010 to $697,560 for year ended December 31, 2011 due to costs associated with the operations of the public company in including professional fees.


Net loss increased to $2,099,183 for the year ended December 31, 2011 from net loss of $153,460 for the year ended December 31, 2010, due increased stock issuances for services and a loss on derivative instruments.


Our revenues and future profitability are substantially dependent on our ability to:


·

raise substantial amounts of additional capital through any one of a combination of debt offerings or equity offerings, if necessary; and

·

continue to grow our business through acquisitions.


Liquidity and Capital Resources


General: We are a development stage enterprise. As such, our historical results of operations are unlikely to provide a meaningful understanding of the activities expected to take place over the next twelve months. Our major initiatives through that period are:


·

furthering the development of our products;

·

obtaining commercial sales of our products, and continuing our current marketing program; and

·

seeking acquisitions of additional businesses and assets that will be beneficial to our company and its stockholders.


Since inception, we have primarily funded our operations from private placements of debt and equity. Until such time as we are able to generate adequate revenues we cannot assure that cash from the issuance of debt securities, the exercise of existing warrants and the placements of additional equity securities will be sufficient to fund our long-term research and development and general and administrative expenses.


Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements


None.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm



To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of

VSUS Technologies, Inc. and Subsidiaries

Canyon Country, California


We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of VSUS Technologies, Inc. and its subsidiary, a development stage company, (collectively, the “Company") as of December 31, 2011, and the related consolidated statement of operations, changes in stockholders' deficit and cash flows for the year then ended These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.


We conducted our audit in accordance with 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. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provide 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 position of VSUS Technologies, Inc. and its subsidiary as of December 31, 2011, and the consolidated results of their operations and their cash flows for the year then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.


The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates continuity of business, realization of assets, and liquidation of liabilities in the ordinary course of business. As discussed in Note 3 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has a working capital deficit and has incurred significant losses. These matters raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans regarding those matters are also described in Note 3. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Board of Directors

VSUS Technologies, Incorporated

Canyon Country, California


We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of VSUS Technologies, Incorporated and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2009 and 2010, and the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in stockholders’ deficiency, and cash flows for the years then ended and from inception (September 20, 2000) to December 31, 2010. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.


We conducted our audits in accordance with standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable 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 audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.


The Company has not generated significant revenues or profits to date. This factor, among others, raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. The Company’s continuation as a going concern depends upon its ability to generate sufficient cash flow to conduct its operations and its ability to obtain additional sources of capital and financing. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.


In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company at December 31, 2010 and 2009, the results of its operations, changes in stockholders’ equity, and its cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009 and from inception (September 20, 2000) to December 31, 2010, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting standards.

VSUS TECHNOLOGIES INCORPORATED

(A DEVELOPMENT STAGE COMPANY)

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND HISTORY


VSUS Technologies Incorporated (the “Company”) was incorporated in Delaware on September 20, 2000. Following its establishment, the Company organized, at the end of 2000, two wholly-owned subsidiaries: Safe Mail International Ltd., a company registered in the British Virgin Islands and Safe Mail Development Ltd., a company registered in Israel. As of August 31, 2004, the Company established two additional wholly-owned subsidiaries: VSUS Secured Services, Inc., a Delaware corporation and First Info Network, Inc., a Delaware corporation. Since inception, and until a recent shift in the focus of its business operations, the Company had been a developer and marketer of highly secure communications systems for use over the Internet.


Effective as of April 13, 2005, the Company reorganized its business by transferring substantially all of its business assets into VSUS Secured Services, Inc., its wholly-owned subsidiary. Consequently, its two subsidiaries, Safe Mail Development Ltd. and Safe Mail International Ltd., became subsidiaries of VSUS Secured Services, Inc.


On April 14, 2005, VSUS Technologies Incorporated acquired 1stAlerts, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“1stAlerts”), a company that develops, markets and sells software applications, when 1stAlerts merged with and into the Company's wholly-owned Delaware subsidiary, First Info Network, Inc., hereinafter referred to as the “1stAlerts Acquisition”. At the time of the 1stAlerts Acquisition, among other things: (i) the Company exchanged 13,000,000 shares of its Common Stock, and 200 shares of its Series B Participating Preferred Stock, for all of the issued and outstanding shares of capital stock of 1stAlerts, (ii) the Company issued 1,861,841 of its Class A Warrants in exchange for warrants to purchase shares of Common Stock of 1stAlerts, (iii) the Company assumed $4,565,000 of promissory and convertible notes from 1stAlerts, and (iv) certain officers and directors of 1stAlerts became officers and directors of the Company. The 200 shares of series B Participating Preferred Stock, the 1.861,841 Class A Warrants which were never registered and a portion of the Convertible Notes were cancelled as a part of the June 24, 2009 Rescission Agreement with 1st Alerts. The Company returned all of the Capitol stock of 1st Alerts as part of the 2009 Rescission Agreement. No remaining 1st Alerts Officers and Directors currently serve as Officers or Directors of the Company.


VSUS Technologies, Inc. (the “Company”) specializes in acquisitions of revenue generating businesses. During 2011, we have signed an agreement and acquired La Tabaquera, a Columbian company whose sole asset is a mining concession in Colombia.  See Note 4 for details.


NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES


Basis of Presentation


The Company prepares its financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.  

 

Consolidation


The accompanying consolidated financial statements represent the consolidated operations of VSUS Technologies, Inc.  and its wholly-owned subsidiary La Tabaquera. Intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.


Development Stage


The Company has not produced significant revenues from its principal business and is a development stage company as defined by ASC 915, Development Stage Entities.


Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect (i) the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, (ii) the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities known to exist as of the date the condensed financial statements are published, and (iii) the reported amount of net sales and expenses recognized during the periods presented. Adjustments made with respect to the use of estimates often relate to improved information not previously available. Uncertainties with respect to such estimates and assumptions are inherent in the preparation of condensed financial statements; accordingly, actual results could differ from these estimates.



F-9



  

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of year ended or less to be cash equivalents.  Cash equivalents include cash on hand and cash in the bank.

 

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

 

Management of the Company will periodically review the net carrying value of its properties on a property-by-property basis. These reviews will consider the net realizable value of each property to determine whether a permanent impairment in value has occurred and the need for any asset write-down. An impairment loss will be recognized when the estimated future cash flows (undiscounted and without interest) expected to result from the use of an asset are less than the carrying amount of the asset.  Measurement of an impairment loss will be based on the estimated fair value of the asset if the asset is expected to be held and used.

 

Although management will make its best estimate of the factors that affect net realizable value based on current conditions, it is reasonably possible that changes could occur in the near term which could adversely affect management's estimate of net cash flows expected to be generated from its assets, and necessitate asset impairment write-downs.


During 2011, the Company evaluated its mining rights for impairment and determined that the fair value of its mining rights acquired during 2010 was $0, resulting in an impairment loss of $75,000 for the year ended December 31, 2011.

  

 Asset Retirement Obligations

 

The Company plans to recognize liabilities for statutory, contractual or legal obligations, including those associated with the reclamation of properties and any plant and equipment, when those obligations result from the acquisition, construction, development or normal operation of the assets. Initially, a liability for an asset retirement obligation will be recognized at its fair value in the period in which it is incurred. Upon initial recognition of the liability, the corresponding asset retirement cost will be added to the carrying amount of the related asset and the cost will be amortized as an expense over the economic life of the asset using either the unit-of-production method or the straight-line method, as appropriate. Following the initial recognition of the asset retirement obligation, the carrying amount of the liability will be increased for the passage of time and adjusted for changes to the amount or timing of the underlying cash flows needed to settle the obligation. As of December 31, 2011, the Company had not begun development activities and therefore has not recorded a liability.

 

Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

 

In accordance with ASC Topic 350 "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets," the Company assesses goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment annually, or more frequently if events and circumstances indicate impairment may have occurred. If the carrying value of a reporting unit's goodwill exceeds its implied fair value, the Company records an impairment loss equal to the difference. ASC Topic 350 also requires that the fair value of indefinite-lived purchased intangible assets be estimated and compared to the carrying value. The Company recognizes an impairment loss when the estimated fair value of the indefinite-lived purchased intangible assets is less than the carrying value.  

 

Income Taxes

 

The Company has adopted Accounting Standards Codification subtopic 740-10, Income Taxes (“ASC 740-10”).  ASC 740-10 requires the recognition of deferred tax liabilities and assets for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statement or tax returns.  Under this method, deferred tax liabilities and assets are determined based on the difference between financial statements and tax basis of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse.  Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to amounts that are expected to be realized.

  

Concentration of Credit Risk

 

The Company maintains its operating cash balances in banks in California.  The Federal Depository Insurance Corporation (FDIC) insures accounts at each institution up to $250,000.



F-10



 

Share-Based Compensation

 

The Company applies Topic 718 “Share-Based Payments” (“Topic 718”) to share-based compensation, which requires the measurement of the cost of services received in exchange for an award of an equity instrument based on the grant-date fair value of the award.  Compensation cost is recognized when the event occurs. The Black-Scholes option-pricing model is used to estimate the fair value of options granted.


The Company accounts for equity based transactions with non-employees under the provisions of ASC Topic No. 505-50, “Equity-Based Payments to Non-Employees” (“Topic No. 505-50”). Topic No. 505-50 establishes that equity-based payment transactions with non-employees shall be measured at the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instruments issued, whichever is more reliably measurable.


Basic and Diluted Net Loss Per Share

 

Net loss per share was computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period.  The weighted average number of shares was calculated by taking the number of shares outstanding and weighting them by the amount of time that they were outstanding.  Diluted net loss per share for the Company is the same as basic net loss per share, as the inclusion of common stock equivalents would be antidilutive.  

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

The Company financial instruments consist primarily of cash, affiliate receivable, settlement receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses and debt.  The carrying amounts of such financial instruments approximate their respective estimated fair value due to the short-term maturities and approximate market interest rates of these instruments.  The estimated fair value is not necessarily indicative of the amounts the Company would realize in a current market exchange or from future earnings or cash flows. 

 

The Company adopted ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements (“ASC Topic 820”), which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands disclosure about fair value measurements.  The standard provides a consistent definition of fair value, which focuses on an exit

price that would be received upon sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.  The standard also prioritizes, within the measurement of fair value, the use of market-based measurements.

 

The three-level hierarchy for fair value measurements is defined as follows:

 

·

Level 1 – inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets;


·

Level 2 – inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable of the asset or liability other than quoted prices, either directly or indirectly including inputs in markets that are not considered to be active;


·

Level 3 – inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement.


The following table sets for the Company’s liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis:

Reclassifications

Recent Accounting Pronouncements


The Company does not believe any recently issued accounting pronouncements issued by the FASB and the SEC will have a material impact on the Company’s present or future consolidated financial statements.



F-11



 

NOTE 3 – GOING CONCERN


As shown in the accompanying financial statements, VSUS Technologies, Inc. incurred net losses of $2,099,183 and $153,460 for the years ended December 31, 2011, and 2010, respectively and had a working capital deficit of $1,074,965 as of December 31, 2011. These conditions raise substantial doubt as to VSUS Technologies’ ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if VSUS Technologies is unable to continue as a going concern.


Management's plans in this regard include raising additional cash from current and potential stockholders and lenders, making strategic acquisitions and increasing the marketing of its products and services. The Company has no current arrangements with respect to any additional financing. Consequently, there can be no assurance that any future financing will be available to the Company when needed, and on commercially reasonable terms. The Company's inability to derive sufficient revenues from the sale of its products, or obtain additional financing when needed, would have a material adverse effect on the company, requiring the Company to curtail or cease operations. In addition, any equity financing may involve substantial dilution to the Company's then current stockholders.

 

NOTE 4 – ACQUISITION OF LA TABAQUERA AND MINING RIGHTS


On February 24, 2011, the Company acquired La Tabaquera, a Columbian company whose sole asset is the “Concession Contract No. ILE-09551, granted for the Exploration and Exploitation of a Carbon Mineral and other Grantable Mineral Deposits by the Colombian Institute of Geology and Mining”.


Under the agreement, the Company issued 5,606,410 shares of common stock and agreed to pay the owner $100,000 in cash.   Due to the lack of an active market for the Company’s common shares, the Company determined the fair value of the common stock was $0 on the acquisition date.  As of December 31, 2011, $45,000 of the cash payment had been paid, with the remaining $55,000 still owed and included in accounts payable and accrued expenses in the consolidated balance sheet.  The $55,000 has no specific terms of repayment and is unsecured. The Company expects to pay the remaining amount upon receipt of future funding.  If the amounts are not paid, the Company may have to re-negotiate with the seller.


NOTE 5 - RELATED PARTY DEBT


As of December 31, 2011 and 2010, the Company had an outstanding convertible note to Ararat, LLC, a Company owned by a family member of an officer. The interest rate is 10% and the note is unsecured.  The principal balance of the note is convertible into common stock at the holder’s option at 70% of the market price of the Company’s common stock on the date of conversion. During 2011, the Company converted $720,473 of the principal into 11,095,986 shares of common stock.  As a part of this conversion, the Company issued more shares than would have been allowed under the conversion terms.  As a result, the Company recognized a loss on conversion for the fair value of the shares of $298,996.  At December 31, 2011 the principal balance of the note was $76,728 and accrued interest was $228,432.   At December 31, 2010 the principal balance of the note was $797,200 and accrued interest was $152,311.


On April 14, 2008 the Company signed a related party loan agreement in which they borrowed an aggregate of $328,000 from Ararat, LLC. The note matures December 31, 2012 and carries a 10% interest rate. At December 31, 2011 the principal balance of the note was $328,000 and accrued interest was $41,124. At December 31, 2010 the principal balance of the note was $328,000 and accrued interest was $18,324.


NOTE 6- SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY

The shares were valued to be worth more than the debt extinguished and created a resulting loss on extinguishment of debt of $298,996.


During the year ended December 31, 2011, VSUS Technologies, Inc. issued an aggregate of 250,000 common shares for a subscription receivable of $20,000 which has not been collected. Another $40,000 in notes receivables from the year ended December 31, 2010 was classified in the current year as a subscription receivable as the amount has not been collected.



F-12




During the year ended December 31, 2011, VSUS Technologies, Inc. issued an aggregate of 2,000,000 common shares for cash totaling $154,000.


During the year ended December 31, 2011 an aggregate of 46,000,000 shares were returned to treasury due to non-payment on subscription receivables outstanding at December 31, 2010.


During the year ended December 31, 2011 an aggregate of 5,606,410 shares with a fair value of $0 were issued for the acquisition of the La Tabaquera mine in Columbia.  See Note 4.


During 2011, the Company reclassified $1,898,000 of deferred stock based compensation to additional paid-in capital in accordance with ASC 718.


Stock Options


During the year ended December 31, 2011 an aggregate of 5,000,000 options with a fair value of $50,000 were issued to John Campo, President as part of his employment agreement.

The fair value of the Company’s stock options was determined using a Black-Scholes option pricing model.  Assumptions used include (1) 4.51% risk-free interest rate, (2) expected term is the expected amount of time until conversion, (3) expected volatility of 853%, (4) zero expected dividends (5) exercise prices as set forth in the agreements, and (6) common stock price of the underlying share on the valuation date.


Preferred Stock


There are 20,000,000 shares of authorized Preferred Stock. During 2011, the Company issued 10,000,000 shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock to Mr. Kyle Gotshalk for services.  The shares are convertible into 51% of outstanding common stock, hold 66 2/3% voting rights and do not receive dividends.  As the issuance of preferred stock gives the holder effective control of the Company, the Company determined the fair value of the shares should be based on the underlying value of the Company.  On the issuance date, the Company determined that due to a lack of revenues, assets and expected future cash flows, the fair value of the Company was $0 and therefore the preferred stock was also valued at $0.


Additionally, because the conversion option can be exercised into 51% of the outstanding shares of the Company, the Company determined that holder of the preferred shares receives additional value every time the Company issues common shares, thereby increasing the number of common shares the preferred shares can be converted into.  As a result, the Company has determined the incremental value gives to the preferred shareholder upon additional issuances of common shares should be recorded at fair value and charged to expense.  Due to there being a net decrease in common shares outstanding in 2011, the Company has not recognized any incremental cost.

NOTE 7- DERIVATIVE LIABILITY


As mentioned in Note 5, the Company had convertible notes outstanding during 2011 that were convertible into common shares at 70% of the market price of the Company’s common stock on the date of conversion. The Company analyzed these conversion options under ASC 815 “Derivatives and Hedging” and determined that these instruments should be classified as liabilities and recorded at fair value due to their being no explicit limit to the number of shares to be delivered upon settlement of the above conversion options. The derivative liability had a fair value of $0 as of December 31, 2010.  The following table summarizes the Company’s derivative liabilities during the year ended December 31, 2011:

On March 7, 2012 the board of directors of VSUS engaged the accounting firm of MaloneBailey, LLP as principal accountants of VSUS for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011.  VSUS did not consult with MaloneBailey, LLP during the two most recent fiscal year and subsequent interim period preceding the engagement of MaloneBailey, LLP on March 7, 2012 regarding the application of accounting principles to a specific completed or contemplated transaction, or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on VSUS’s financial statements.  Neither written nor oral advice was provided that was an important factor considered by MaloneBailey, LLP in reaching a decision as to the accounting, auditing or financial reporting issue; or any matter that was the subject of a disagreement or event identified in response to paragraph Item 304 (a)(2)(i) and (ii) of Regulation S-K.


We had no other changes of, or disagreements with, our auditors during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011, or subsequent periods through the date hereof.


Item 9A.  Controls and Procedures:

 

 Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures


An evaluation was performed under the supervision of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer (principal financial officer), of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this Annual Report. Based on that evaluation, our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, concluded that, as of December 31, 2011, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective to ensure that information we are required to disclose in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms due to material weaknesses in our internal controls described below.


Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting


Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(f). Our internal control system is intended to provide reasonable assurance to our management and board of directors regarding the preparation and fair presentation of published financial statements and that we have controls and procedures designed to ensure that the information required to be disclosed by us in our reports that we will be required to file under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding financial disclosure.



13




Our management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2011. In making this assessment, our management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control-Integrated Framework. Based on this assessment, management believes that as of December 31, 2011, our internal control over financial reporting is not effective based on those criteria.


Management’s assessment identified several material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting. These material weaknesses include the following:


·

Lack of appropriate segregation of duties;

·

Limited capability to interpret and apply accounting principles generally accepted in the United States;

·

Lack of formal accounting policies and procedures that include multiple levels of review.

·

Failure to properly record transactions related to asset acquisitions, derivative liabilities, and equity based payments to employees and non-employees


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


Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls and Procedures


Our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal controls will prevent all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control

system are met. Our control systems are designed to provide such reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within our Company have been detected. These inherent limitations include, but are not limited to, the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the control. The design of any system of controls also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.


Item 9B. Other Information.


There was no information we were required to disclose in a report on Form 8-K during the fourth quarter of 2011, which was not so reported.

Significant Employees


Other than as mentioned above, we have no employees who are not executive officers, but who are expected to make significant contributions to our business.


Involvement in Certain Legal Proceedings


Except as stated above, during the past five years, no director, person nominated to become a director, executive officer, promoter or control person of ours:


(1) was a general partner or executive officer of any business against which any bankruptcy petition was filed, either at the time of the bankruptcy or two years prior to that time;


(2) was convicted in a criminal proceeding or named subject to a pending criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations and other minor offenses);



15




(3) was subject to any order, judgment or decree, not subsequently reversed, suspended or vacated, of any court of competent jurisdiction, permanently or temporarily enjoining, barring, suspending or otherwise limiting his involvement in any type of business, securities or banking activities; or


(4) was found by a court of competent jurisdiction (in a civil action), the Securities and Exchange Commission or the Commodity Futures Trading Commission to have violated a federal or state securities or commodities law, and the judgment has not been reversed, suspended or vacated.


Audit Committee Financial Expert


The Securities Exchange Commission has adopted rules to implement certain requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 pertaining to public company audit committees. One of the rules adopted by the SEC requires a company to disclose whether it has an “audit committee financial expert” serving on its audit committee. Our board of directors has not yet established an audit committee. As such, our board has not yet appointed an audit committee financial expert. At this time, our board of directors believes it would be desirable to have an audit committee, and for the audit committee to have an audit committee financial expert serving on the committee. While informal discussions as to potential candidates have occurred, at this time no formal search process has commenced.


Compliance with Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act


To our knowledge, based solely on a review of such materials as are required by the Securities and Exchange Commission, none of our officers, directors or beneficial holders of more than ten percent of our issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock failed to timely file with the Securities and Exchange Commission any form or report required to be so filed pursuant to Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011.


Code of Ethics


We have not yet adopted a code of ethics policy because we are a development stage company, in the early stages of operations. We intend to adopt a code of ethics policy in the future.
