NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
MARCH 31, 2012

NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

Gilla Inc. (the “Company”), was incorporated under the laws of the state of Nevada on March 28, 1995 under the name of Truco, Inc. The shareholders approved a name change on March 22, 1996, March 18, 1997, September 13, 1999, October 3, 2000, April 23, 2003 and February 27, 2007 to Web Tech, Inc., Cynergy, Inc., Mercantile Factoring Credit Online Corp., Incitations, Inc., Osprey Gold Corp. and to its present name, respectively.

The Company has specialized in acquiring and consolidating large, exploration-stage properties with near-term production potential and future growth through exploration discoveries. Company’s acquisition and development emphasis is focused on properties containing gold and other strategic minerals located in Africa. The company is currently not in the exploration stage and was in “exploration stage” till June 30, 2011.

The Company formed and received a 99% ownership interest in GISOR SPRL (“GISOR”), a foreign subsidiary, during the last quarter of 2009 and domiciled in The Democratic Republic of the Congo. This subsidiary was formed solely for the purpose of acquiring mining rights. GISOR has not had significant business activities since its inception.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
MARCH 31, 2012

NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
The following are summarized accounting policies considered to be significant by the company’s management.
 
Principles of Consolidation
 
The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Gilla, Inc. include the accounts of the following companies: Gilla, Inc. and its subsidiary, GISOR SPRL (GISOR). GISOR did not have significant activities and there were no significant intercompany transactions or balances between the Company and its subsidiary as of March 31, 2012.
 
Basis of Accounting
 
The financial statements are prepared using the accrual basis of accounting where revenues and expenses are recognized in the period in which they were incurred. The basis of accounting conforms to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
 
Interim Reporting
 
While the information presented in the accompanying interim three months condensed consolidated financial statements is unaudited, it includes all adjustments, which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to present fairly the consolidated financial position, results of its operations and consolidated cash flows for the interim periods presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements follow the same accounting policies and methods of their application as the December 31, 2011 audited annual consolidated financial statements of Gilla Inc. All adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. It is suggested that these interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the Company’s December 31, 2011 annual consolidated audited financial statements.
 
Operating results for the three months are not necessarily indicative of the results that can be expected for the year ended December 31, 2012.
 
Going Concern
 
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. As reflected in the accompanying interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, the Company has incurred net loss of $615,683, an accumulated deficit of 31,480,429, deficiency in stockholders’ equity of $803,410, used $75 in cash for operating activities and had a negative working capital (current liabilities exceeded current assets) of $184,946.  These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time. These interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible effects on recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may result from our inability to continue as a going concern.

Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on the ability to further implement its business plan, raise capital, and generate revenues. The management recognizes that it must generate additional resources and that it must successfully implement its business plan and achieves profitable operations. The Company cannot assure that it will be successful in any of these activities. Should any of these events not occur, its financial condition will be adversely affected.

NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
 
The time required for the Company to become profitable from operations is highly uncertain, and the Company cannot assure you that it will achieve or sustain operating profitability or generate sufficient cash flow to meet its planned capital expenditures. If required, the Company’s ability to obtain additional financing from other sources also depends on many factors beyond its control, including the state of the capital markets and the prospects for its

business. The necessary additional financing may not be available to the Company or may be available only on terms that would result in further dilution to the current owners of its common stock.

The Company cannot assure that it will generate sufficient cash flow from operations or obtain additional financing to meet its obligations.

Management’s Plans

The Company is currently exploring options to raise capital for operation and obtaining technical compliant report on some of its mining properties in the Democratic Republic of Congo. The company will continue to acquire mining properties as and when required funding is available.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities, at the date of these financials statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Net Income (Loss) per Common Share

The Company computes earnings per share under Accounting Standards Codification subtopic 260-10, Earnings Per Share (“ASC 260-10”). Basic net income (loss) per common share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock. Diluted earnings per share is computed using the weighted average number of common and common stock equivalent shares outstanding during the period. There is no effect on diluted loss per share since the common stock equivalents are anti-dilutive. Dilutive common stock equivalents consist of shares issuable upon conversion of convertible notes and the exercise of the Company's stock options and warrants.

Reclassifications

Certain reclassifications have been made in prior period's unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements to conform to classifications used in the current period.

NOTE 5 - NOTES PAYABLE - RELATED PARTY (Continued)
 
The Company identified embedded derivatives related to the Convertible Note entered into on April 15, 2011.  These embedded derivatives included certain conversion features.  The accounting treatment of derivative financial instruments requires that the Company record the fair value of the derivatives as of the inception date of the Convertible Promissory Note and to adjust the fair value as of each subsequent balance sheet date.
 
During the quarter ended March 31, 2012, the Company amortized $18,614 to current period operations as interest expense.

The fair value of the described embedded derivative of $618,465 at March 31, 2012 was determined using the Black-Scholes Model with the following assumptions:
 
(1)  risk free interest rate of     10%;  
(2)  dividend yield of       0%;  
(3)  expected volatility factor of       437%;  
(4)  an expected life of the conversion feature of      0.75 year, and  
(5)  fair value of the company’s common stock of     $0.05 per share.  
 
At March 31, 2012, the Company adjusted the recorded fair value of the derivative liability to market resulting in non-cash, non-operating loss of $580,600 for the quarter ended March 31, 2012.
 
NOTE 6 – FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

ASC 825-10 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. When determining the fair value measurements 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 considers assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability, such as inherent risk, transfer restrictions, and risk of nonperformance. ASC 825-10 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. ASC 825-10 establishes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

Level 1 - Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2 - Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets with insufficient volume or infrequent transactions (less active markets); or model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs are observable or can be derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.

Level 3 - Unobservable inputs to the valuation methodology that are significant to the measurement of fair value of assets or liabilities.

To the extent that valuation is based on models or inputs that are less observable or unobservable in the market, the determination of fair value requires more judgment. In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, for disclosure purposes, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement is disclosed is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

The Company has a history of operating losses and we expect to continue to incur operating losses in the near future.
 
The report of our independent accountants on our December 31, 2011 consolidated financial statements includes an explanatory paragraph indicating that there is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern due to lack of operations and revenue and substantial recurring losses from operations and significant accumulated deficit and working capital deficit.  Our ability to continue as a going concern will be determined by our ability to obtain additional funding and commence and maintain successful operations. Our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
 
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make a wide variety of estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods covered by the financial statements. Our management routinely makes judgments and estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain.

As the number of variables and assumptions affecting the future resolution of the uncertainties increases, these judgments become even more subjective and complex. We have identified certain accounting policies that are most important to the portrayal of our current financial condition and results of operations. Our significant accounting policies are disclosed in Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. Several of those critical accounting policies are as follows:

Use of Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities, at the date of these financials statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Net Income (Loss) per Common Share

The Company computes earnings per share under Accounting Standards Codification subtopic 260-10, Earnings Per Share (“ASC 260-10”). Basic net income (loss) per common share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock. Diluted earnings per share is computed using the weighted average number of common and common stock equivalent shares outstanding during the period. There is no effect on diluted loss per share since the common stock equivalents are anti-dilutive. Dilutive common stock equivalents consist of shares issuable upon conversion of convertible notes and the exercise of the Company's stock options and warrants.

ITEM 4.  DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures:  We maintain “disclosure controls and procedures” as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.  In designing and evaluating our disclosure controls and procedures, our management recognized that disclosure controls and procedures, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of disclosure controls and procedures are met.  Additionally, in designing disclosure controls and procedures, our management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible disclosure controls and procedures.  The design of any disclosure controls and procedures 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.  Based on his evaluation as of the end of the period covered by this report, our Chief Executive Officer who also serves as our principal financial and accounting officer has concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective such that the information relating to our company, required to be disclosed in our Securities and Exchange Commission reports (i) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms and (ii) is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

As of March 31, 2012 and as of the date of this report, we did not maintain effective controls over the control environment. Specifically, our board of directors does not currently have any independent members and no director qualifies as an audit committee financial expert as defined in Item 407(d) (5) (ii) of Regulation S-B.
