A summary of the significant accounting policies applied in the presentation of the unaudited accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements follows:

 

General

 

The accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of VelaTel Global Communications, Inc. (“the Company”) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q.  Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (”GAAP”) for complete financial statements.

 

In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included.  Accordingly, the results from operations for the six-month period ended June 30, 2012 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2012.  The unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the audited Consolidated Financial Statements and Footnotes thereto for the period ended December 31, 2011 included in the Company's Form 10-K filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on April 16, 2012.

Use of Estimates

 

The Company’s unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP.  The preparation of these unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the unaudited Condenses Consolidated Financial Statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.  On an on-going basis, management evaluates its estimates and judgments, including those related to revenue recognition, accrued expenses, financing operations, contingencies and litigation.  Management bases its estimates and judgments on historical experience and on various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources.  Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.  The most significant accounting estimates inherent in the preparation of the Company’s unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include estimates as to the appropriate carrying value of certain assets and liabilities which are not readily apparent from other sources.  Actual results could differ from the Company’s estimates.

Revenue Recognition

 

For revenue from product sales and services, the Company recognizes revenue in accordance with ASC subtopic 605, Revenue Recognition, which requires that four basic criteria must be met before revenue can be recognized: (i) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; (ii) delivery has occurred or services have been rendered; (iii) the selling price is fixed and determinable; and (iv) collectability is reasonably assured.  Determination of criteria (iii) and (iv) are based on management's judgments regarding the fixed nature of the selling prices of the products delivered and the collectability of those amounts.  Provisions for discounts and rebates to customers, estimated returns and allowances and other adjustments are provided for in the same period the related sales are recorded.  The Company defers any revenue for which the product has not been delivered or is subject to refund until such time that the Company and the customer jointly determine that the product has been delivered or no refund will be required.  ASC 605-10 incorporates ASC subtopic 605-25, Multiple-Element Arrangements.  ASC 605-25 addresses accounting for arrangements that may involve the delivery or performance of multiple products, services and/or rights to use assets.

 

Revenue arises from sale of local and long distance service access and/or wireless broadband service access where some payments are received before and some payments are received after the service has been rendered.  The Company sells its products separately and in various bundles that contain multiple deliverables.  These revenues include long distance and prepaid telephone cards, prepaid wireless access plans, along with other products and services.  In accordance with ASC 605-25, sales arrangements with multiple deliverables are divided into separate units of accounting, if the deliverables in the arrangement meet the following criteria: (i) the product has value to the customer on a standalone basis; (ii) there is objective and reliable evidence of the fair value of undelivered items; and (iii) delivery or performances of any undelivered item is probable and substantially in our control.  The fair value of each separate element is generally determined by prices charged when sold separately.  If there is any discount from the combined fair value of the individual elements, the discount is allocated to the portion of the revenues attributable to the individual elements.  In accordance with ASC 605-25, if fair value of all undelivered elements in an arrangement exists, but fair value does not exist for a delivered element, then revenue is recognized using the residual method.  Under the residual method, the fair value of undelivered elements is deferred and the remaining portion of the arrangement fee (after allocation of 100 percent of any discount to the delivered item) is recognized as revenue. 

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

For purposes of the Statements of Cash Flows, the Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with a maturity date of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

 

Fair Values

 

ASC subtopic 825-10, Financial Instruments requires disclosure of the fair value of certain financial instruments.  The carrying value of cash and cash equivalents, as well as short-term borrowings, approximate fair value because of the short-term maturity of these instruments.  All other significant financial assets, financial liabilities and equity instruments of the Company are either recognized or disclosed in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements together with other information relevant for making a reasonable assessment of future cash flows, interest rate risk and credit risk.  Where practicable, the fair values of financial assets and financial liabilities have been determined and disclosed; otherwise, only available information pertinent to fair value has been disclosed.

 

Accounting For Bad Debt and Allowances

 

Bad debts and allowances are provided based on historical experience and management's evaluation of outstanding accounts receivable.  Management evaluates past due or delinquency of accounts receivable based on the open invoices aged on due date basis.  Allowance for doubtful accounts at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 was $4,900 and $3,163, respectively.

 

Inventories

 

The inventory consists of finished goods ready for resale purposes.  The Company purchases the merchandise on delivered duty paid basis.  Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or market, with cost determined using the first-in, first-out method.

 

Property, Plant and Equipment

 

Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses.  Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the respective assets.

 

The estimated useful lives of property, plant and equipment are as follows:

 

Machinery and equipment 10 years
Vehicles 4 years
Furniture and fixtures 10 years
Leasehold improvements **
Constructed assets (towers) 10 years
Computers 5 years

  

8
 

 

Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of their useful lives or the term of the lease.

 

The Company evaluates the carrying value of items of property, plant and equipment to be held and used whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable.  The carrying value of an item of property, plant and equipment is considered impaired when the projected undiscounted future cash flows related to the asset are less than its carrying value.  The Company measures impairment based on the amount by which the carrying value of the respective asset exceeds its fair value.  Fair value is determined primarily using the projected future cash flows discounted at a rate commensurate with the risk involved.

 

Long-Lived Assets

 

The Company has adopted ASC subtopic 360-10, Property, Plant and Equipment.  ASC 360-10 requires that long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangibles held and used by the Company be reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable.  Events relating to recoverability may include significant unfavorable changes in business conditions, recurring losses or a forecasted inability to achieve break-even operating results over an extended period.  The Company evaluates the recoverability of long-lived assets based upon forecasted undiscounted cash flows.  Should impairment in value be indicated, the carrying value of intangible assets would be adjusted, based on estimates of future discounted cash flows resulting from the use and ultimate disposition of the asset.  ASC 360-10 also requires assets to be disposed of be reported at the lower of the carrying amount or the fair value less costs to sell.  

 

Intangible Assets and Goodwill

 

The Company accounts for acquisitions in accordance with the provisions of ASC 805-10.  The Company assigns to all identifiable assets acquired (including intangible assets), and to all identifiable liabilities assumed, a portion of the cost of the acquired company equal to the estimated fair value of such assets and liabilities at the date of acquisition.  The Company records the excess of the cost of the acquired company over the sum of the amounts assigned to identifiable assets acquired less liabilities assumed, if any, as goodwill.

 

As a result of the acquisition of VelaTel Peru on April 15, 2009, the Company acquired intangible assets in the aggregate amount of $1,132,647.

 

The Company allocated $124,357 to identifiable intangible assets including developed software.  The remaining $1,008,290 was allocated to goodwill.

 

The Company amortized its identifiable intangible assets using the straight-line method over their estimated period of benefit.  The estimated useful life of developed software is ten years.  The Company periodically evaluates the recoverability of intangible assets and takes into account events or circumstances that warrant revised estimates of useful lives or indicate that impairment exists.

 

The Company accounts for and reports acquired goodwill and other intangible assets under ASC subtopic 305-10, Intangibles, Goodwill and Other.  In accordance with ASC 305-10, the Company tests its intangible assets for impairment on an annual basis and when there is reason to suspect that their values have been diminished or impaired.  Any write-downs will be included in results from operations.

 

The Company’s management performed an evaluation of its goodwill for purposes of determining the implied fair value of the assets at December 31, 2009. The test indicated that the recorded remaining book value of its goodwill exceeded its fair value for the year ended December 31, 2009. As a result, upon completion of the assessment, management recorded a non-cash impairment charge of $1,008,290, net of tax, or $0.02 per share of the Company’s Series A common stock (“Series A Common Stock” or “Share(s)”) during the year ended December 31, 2009 to reduce the carrying value of the goodwill to $0.  Considerable management judgment is necessary to estimate the fair value.  Accordingly, actual results could vary significantly from management’s estimates.

 

Functional Currency

 

A majority of the transactions of the Company’s Peruvian subsidiary are in US dollars; accordingly, this subsidiary’s functional currency is the US dollar. The accounts of the Company’s Zapna subsidiary are maintained in Danish Kroner, and the accounts of the Company’s Herlong subsidiary are maintained in the Euro. The accounts of these foreign subsidiaries were translated into US dollars in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 830 “Foreign Currency Matters.” According to ASC Topic 830, all assets and liabilities were translated at the exchange rate on the balance sheet dates, stockholders’ equity is translated at historical rates and statement of operation items are translated at the weighted average exchange rate for the period. The resulting translation adjustments are reported under other comprehensive income in accordance with ASC Topic 220, “Comprehensive Income.” Gains and losses resulting from the translations of foreign currency transactions and balances are reflected in the statements of income.

Foreign Currency Transactions and Comprehensive Income

 

GAAP requires that recognized revenue, expenses, gains and losses be included in net income. Certain statements, however, require entities to report specific changes in assets and liabilities, such as gain or loss on foreign currency translation, as a separate component of the equity section of the balance sheet. Such items, along with net income, are components of comprehensive income. Translation gains are classified as an item of accumulated other comprehensive income in the stockholders’ equity section of the consolidated balance sheet.

 

Advertising Costs

 

Advertising costs, which are included in selling, administrative and general, are expensed as incurred.  Advertising costs for the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 were $12,967 and $6,891, respectively, and for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 were $13,367 and $14,128, respectively.

 

Net Loss Per Share

 

The Company has adopted ASC subtopic 260-10, Earnings Per Share.  This requires the computation, presentation and disclosure requirements of earnings per Share information.  Basic earnings per Share have been calculated based upon the weighted average number of Shares outstanding.  Stock options and warrants have been excluded as common stock equivalents in the diluted earnings per Share, because they are anti-dilutive.

 

Concentrations of Credit Risk

 

Financial instruments and related items, which potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk, consist primarily of cash, cash equivalents and trade receivables.  The Company places its cash and temporary cash investments with high credit quality institutions.  At times, such investments may be in excess of the FDIC insurance limit.

 

Stock Based Compensation

 

The Company adopted ASC subtopic 718-10, Compensation.  ASC 718-10 requires the measurement and recognition of compensation expense for all share-based payment awards made to employees and directors, including employee stock options and employee stock purchases related to an employee stock purchase plan based on the estimated fair values.

 

Research and Development

 

The Company accounts for research and development costs in accordance with the ASC subtopic 730-10, Research and Development. Under ASC 730-10, all research and development costs must be charged to expense as incurred.  Accordingly, internal research and development costs are expensed as incurred.  Third-party research and development costs are expensed when the contracted work has been performed or as milestone results have been achieved.  Company sponsored research and development costs related to both present and future products and services are expensed in the period incurred.  

 

Reclassifications

 

Certain reclassifications have been made to prior periods’ data to conform to the presentation set forth in this Report.  These reclassifications had no effect on reported income or losses.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

In June 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-05, Presentation of Comprehensive Income. ASU 2011-05 revises the manner in which entities present comprehensive income in their financial statements. The new guidance removes the presentation options in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 220, Comprehensive Income, and requires entities to report components of comprehensive income in either: (i) a continuous statement of comprehensive income; or (ii) two separate, but consecutive, statements.  The ASU does not change the items that must be reported in other comprehensive income.  In December 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-12, which defers the requirement in ASU 2011-05 that companies present reclassification adjustments for each component of accumulated other comprehensive income in both net income and other comprehensive income on the face of the financial statements.  ASU 2011-05 is effective for fiscal years and interim reporting periods within those years beginning after December 15, 2011, with early adoption permitted.  The adoption of ASU 2011-05, as amended by ASU 2011-12, is not expected to significantly impact the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

 

10
 

 

In September 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-08, Testing Goodwill for Impairment, which provides an entity the option to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is necessary to perform the current two-step test for goodwill impairment.  If an entity believes, as a result of its qualitative assessment, that it is more-likely-than-not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, the quantitative impairment test is required.  Otherwise, no further testing is required.  The revised standard is effective for the Company for its annual and interim goodwill impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011.  The adoption of ASU 2011-08 is not expected to significantly impact the Company’s unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

 

In November 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-11, Balance Sheet (Topic 210): Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities, which requires an entity to disclose information about offsetting and related arrangements to enable users of its financial statements to understand the effect of those arrangements on its financial position.  An entity is required to adopt ASU 2011-11 for reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013.  The adoption of ASU 2011-11 is not expected to significantly impact the Company’s Condensed Consolidated financial statements.

 

In December 2011, the FASB issued disclosure guidance related to the offsetting of assets and liabilities. The guidance requires an entity to disclose information about offsetting and related arrangements for recognizing financial and derivative instruments to enable users of its financial statements to understand the effect of those arrangements on its financial position. The amended guidance is effective for the Company on a retrospective basis commencing in the first quarter of 2014. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this new guidance on its unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

 

In July 2012, the FASB issued ASU 2012-02, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other (Topic 350) - Testing Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets for Impairment.  The ASU provides entities with an option to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether events or circumstances indicate that it is more likely than not that the indefinite-lived intangible asset is impaired.  If an entity concludes that it is more than 50% likely that an indefinite-lived intangible asset is not impaired, no further analysis is required.  However, if an entity concludes otherwise, it would be required to determine the FV of the indefinite-lived intangible asset to measure the amount of actual impairment, if any, as currently required under GAAP. The ASU is effective for annual and interim impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after September 15, 2012.  Early adoption is permitted. The adoption of this pronouncement will not have a material impact on its financial statements.

 

NOTE 2 GOING CONCERN MATTERS

 

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 shown in the accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, the Company incurred a net loss of $5,478,254 for the six months ended June 30, 2012.  In addition, the Company had negative working capital of $12,966,554 and a total stockholders’ deficiency of $4,099,723 as of June 30, 2012.

 

In addition, the Company requires substantial additional capital to finance its planned business operations and expects to incur operating losses in future periods due to the expense of deploying the networks and related businesses that are the core of the Company’s businesses.  Also, the Company has not realized material revenue since its commenced doing business in the telecommunications sector, and it is not without doubt that it will be successful in generating revenues in the future.  

 

If the Company is not able to raise substantial additional capital in a timely manner, the Company may lose its rights to participate in one or more of its projects and may be forced to cease operations.

 

To attain profitable operations, management continues to focus its efforts on the deployment and operation of WBA networks and related businesses.  The Company typically contributes its technical expertise in deploying and operating WBA networks, as well as the capital required to deploy the networks, in exchange for its equity interest in each project.  The Company will continue to be dependent on outside capital to fund its operations for the foreseeable future.  Any financing obtained may further dilute or otherwise impair the ownership interest of the current stockholders.  If the Company fails to generate positive cash flows or fails to obtain additional capital when required, the Company could modify, delay or abandon some or all of its business plans.

 

The above factors, among others, may indicate that the Company will be unable to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time.  The continued existence of the Company is dependent upon management’s ability to develop profitable operations and resolve its liquidity problems.  The accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of asset carrying amounts or the amount and classification of liabilities that might result should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

NOTE 4 INVESTMENTS

 

Chinacomm Cayman

 

The Company entered into a Framework Agreement, which was superseded by the Gulfstream Subscription and Shareholders Agreement, whereby the Company, through its subsidiary, Gulfstream Seychelles, obtained an option to acquire up to a 49% equity interest in Chinacomm Cayman for a total purchase price of $196,000,000, of which the Company paid $5,000,000 during 2008.  The Gulfstream Subscription and Shareholders Agreement required the Company to make certain payments to CECT Chinacomm Communications, Co. Ltd. (“Chinacomm”) in accordance with a schedule set forth therein.  Those payments were to be utilized to deploy the Chinacomm Network (defined below).  The Company attempted to raise capital to make the required payments, but was unable to do so within the anticipated period.  However, there were numerous unfulfilled conditions precedent that Chinacomm was required to meet in order to cause Gulfstream Seychelles to pay more than it had during 2008 pursuant to the Gulfstream Subscription and Shareholders Agreement.  Meanwhile, the Company was unable to timely pay the vendors it had employed to continue work on the Chinacomm Network. At the time, the Company owed one vendor alone in excess of $47,000,000. Accordingly, the Company sought assistance from its President, Colin Tay, who was close to the senior management of Chinacomm in an effort to find a way to keep the vendors working on the Chinacomm Network and provide more time for the Company to fund its acquisition once Chinacomm met its contractual conditions precedent to trigger such funding.

 

Trussnet Capital Partner (HK) Ltd. Transactions Related to Chinacomm Cayman

 

In February 2009, Trussnet Capital Partners (HK) Ltd. (“TCP”), a company wholly owned by the Company’s President, Mr. Tay, proposed to Chinacomm to enter into a substitute Subscription and Shareholders’ Agreement upon terms similar to the Gulfstream Subscription and Shareholders Agreement.  Based on Chinacomm’s prior relationship with Mr. Tay and additional benefits TCP was able to offer Chinacomm that the Company was not, Chinacomm entered into a substitute Subscription and Shareholders Agreement and Addendum thereto pursuant to which TCP obtained an option to acquire up to a 49% equity interest in Chinacomm Cayman (“TCP Subscription Agreement and Addendum”).  The additional benefits TCP was able to offer included negotiating extended payment terms with subcontractors who were performing services under a contract with Trussnet USA, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Trussnet Delaware”), to allow those services to continue and banking relationships whereby Chinacomm was able to obtain a $29 million operating loan from Hana Bank it needed as operating and development capital for the Chinacomm Network.  The purchase price for TCP’s 49% equity interest in Chinacomm Cayman was the same as in the Gulfstream Subscription and Shareholders Agreement, but the payment terms were improved and were expressly conditioned upon the renewal of the 3.5 GHz licenses for all 29 cities that were to be part of the Chinacomm Network.  In addition, if TCP was not able to meet the specific payment schedule described in the TCP Subscription Agreement, the TCP Subscription Agreement contained a provision that required the parties to reach a new payment schedule through amicable negotiations.  Like the Gulfstream Subscription and Shareholders Agreement, the TCP Subscription Agreement and Addendum contemplate that the amounts paid to subscribe to 49% of the stock of Chinacomm Cayman would be used towards deployment of the Chinacomm Network.

 

Pursuant to the TCP Subscription Agreement and Addendum, Chinacomm delivered a stock certificate in TCP’s name for 2,450,000,000 shares of Chinacomm Cayman stock (representing 49% of a total of 5,000,000,000 authorized shares).   Notwithstanding physical custody of the certificate by TCP, the TCP Subscription Agreement provided that the number of Chinacomm Cayman shares corresponding to the unpaid outstanding balance of the subscription price are “pledged” to Chinacomm Cayman and other parties to the TCP Subscription Agreement, and those parties are entitled to withdraw the pledged shares at their discretion if TCP fails to meet the payment schedule set forth in the TCP Subscription Agreement or any new payment schedule to which the parties agree.

 

On March 9, 2009, TCP sold the equity interest it purchased through the TCP Subscription Agreement and Addendum to the Company pursuant to an Asset Purchase Agreement, a TCP Note and a Pledge Agreement.

 

The TCP Note was amended and extended on several occasions.  On June 10, 2010, the Company issued 58,867,119 Shares to TCP for the payment of $24,488,721 of interest and extension fees owed to TCP pursuant to the TCP Note, as amended.  These Shares were delivered in satisfaction of the amounts the Company owed to TCP at the time of the Share issuance.  Through September 30, 2011, in addition to issuance of Shares to TCP, the Company paid TCP $11,001,000 towards accrued interest and extension fees.  In addition, the Company paid TCP $2,750,000 towards reduction of the principal balance of the TCP Note.

 

12
 

 

During 2010, the Company paid $2.75 million into a Hong Kong bank account of Chinacomm Cayman, over which the Company exercised joint control with Chinacomm.  These funds were intended for use towards capitalizing Yunji Communications Technology (China) Co., Ltd. (“Yunji China”), a PRC corporation to be formed.  However, Chinacomm informed the Company that, in order to activate Yunji China, changes had to be made to the Gulfstream Subscription and Shareholders Agreement and the TCP Subscription Agreement and Addendum whereby Chinacomm would have complete control of all bank accounts, revenues, capital expenses, operating expenses and the corporate seal (also known under Chinese business practices as a “chop”) of Yunji China.  The Company rejected Chinacomm’s proposal and refused to authorize the release to Yunji China of the funds held in the Chinacomm Cayman bank account.

 

The Company attempted to negotiate with Chinacomm to resolve the impasse, in order to continue its investment in Chinacomm Cayman for the continued deployment and operation of the Chinacomm network in 29 of the largest cities in China (“Chinacomm Network”).  Meanwhile, Chinacomm decided to deploy the Chinacomm Network independent of what the Company had designed for each of the first 12 cities in the Chinacomm Network and without the Company’s approval and over its objection.  Chinacomm unilaterally elected to deploy fully the Chinacomm Network in Beijing and Shanghai and to place less emphasis on deployment of the balance of the first 12 cities designed by the Company that were to become part of the Chinacomm Network.

 

The Company has not billed Chinacomm any amounts for the professional services it has provided to date, directly or through vendors, including Trussnet Delaware and Joinmax Engineering & Consultants (HK) Ltd. (“Joinmax”).  The Company has accounted for the costs of these professional services as research and development.  The Company did not expect to bill or collect these amounts until the Company capitalized Yunji China and Trussnet Gulfstream (Dalian) Co., Ltd (“Trussnet Dalian”), a PRC corporation to be formed, to a level required for them to pay the Company’s invoices for the Company’s professional services rendered to Chinacomm in connection with the Chinacomm Network.  Yunji China was supposed to operate and service the Chinacomm Network, in exchange for a portion of the revenue generated by Chinacomm Cayman in connection with the Chinacomm Network.  Trussnet Dalian was supposed to lease to Yunji China equipment required in the deployment of the Chinacomm Network and provide technical and management services to Yunji China for the procurement, installation and optimization of the equipment utilized in the Chinacomm Network.

 

On April 4, 2011, the Company and TCP entered into an Assignment of Subscription Agreement and Cancellation of Promissory Note (“the TCP Assignment and Cancellation Agreement”).  The material terms of the TCP Assignment and Cancellation Agreement are as follows:

 

1.               TCP assigned to the Company, without warranty, all of its right, title and interest in the TCP Subscription Agreement and Addendum.  The Company assumed all performance obligations of TCP, if any, under the TCP Subscription Agreement and Addendum.  To the extent consent to this assignment is required from any other party to the TCP Subscription Agreement and Addendum, TCP will continue to act as agent for the Company, as the Company directs.  In either event, the Company is responsible to insure that the obligations of TCP, as set forth in the TCP Subscription Agreement and Addendum, are met timely;

 

2.               Except as set forth in the TCP Assignment and Cancellation Agreement, all existing rights and future obligations of both parties under the Asset Purchase Agreement, the TCP Note and the Pledge Agreement were cancelled and terminated.  Specifically, TCP waived entitlement to all past interest accrued, but unpaid, under the TCP Note and all future interest.  TCP returned the original TCP Note to the Company, marked “CANCELLED;” and

 

3.               the Company and TCP each released the other from any past breach or default, if any, either would be entitled to assert against the other relating to performance or non-performance of any obligation, or the accuracy of any representation or warranty contained in the TCP Assignment and Cancellation Agreement, the TCP Note or the Pledge Agreement.

 

As of December 31, 2011, Chinacomm Cayman was an inactive entity with no operating activities, except for contractual rights in the operation of the Chinacomm Network.  In addition, as of June 30, 2012, the Company evaluated for impairment the fair value of its investment in Chinacomm Cayman and determined that an impairment loss of $7,750,000 should be recognized.

Sino Crossings Joint Venture

 

On November 11, 2010, the Company entered into two related Subscription and Shareholder Agreements (collectively, “the Sino Crossings Agreements”).  The first agreement is between three parties: (i) Shanghai Ying Yu Network Technology Ltd., a PRC limited liability company (“YYNT”); (ii) Azur Capital SDN BHD, a Brunei company (“Azur”); and (iii) the Company.  The second agreement is between Azur and the Company.  Under the Sino Crossings Agreements, the parties will each contribute certain defined resources in order to upgrade existing installed but unimproved by infrastructure equipment fiber optic cable located in China (“the Sino Crossings Network”) with engineering services and equipment that will make it suitable for transmission of data and to charge market rate transport fees to telecommunications operators who use the lit fiber comprising the Sino Crossings Network.  The Company expects to utilize the fiber for the same purposes for its China based projects, but at a discount compared to amounts charged to third party telecommunication providers.  On December 2, 2011 the Company and Azur amended their agreement to require Azur to undertake additional duties. On that same date, the Company issued 150,000 Shares to Azur.

 

The GBNC Network

 

On December 13, 2010, the Company and Golden Bridge Network Communications Co., Ltd (“GBNC”) entered into a Subscription and Shareholder Agreement (“GBNC Agreement”).  Each party is contractually obligated to contribute certain resources in order to deploy and operate a WBA network in China.  GBNC has WBA licenses in the 3.5GHz and 5.8 GHz bandwidth for potentially nine cities within the Fujian Province in China (“GBNC Network”).  GBNC currently holds WBA licenses in Fuzhou and Xiamen.  The Company will have a 49% ownership in the entities comprising its joint venture with GBNC, with majority control of each entity’s board of directors.  The Company expects that this corporate structure will allow it to consolidate the financial activity of this joint venture.  The Company is required to finance all capital and operating expenditures needed to complete the GBNC Network, which includes the deployment of at least 77 base transceiver stations (“BTS”) plus core equipment in Fuzhou and Xiamen.  GBNC has the right to submit applications to obtain additional WBA licenses in at least seven additional cities and/or regions throughout China.  GBNC also holds licenses to act as an internet service provider (“ISP”) in 26 cities and regions in China, and the right to apply for ISP licenses in additional cities and regions nationwide. On December 22, 2010, the Company issued 50,000 Shares valued at $1,010,000.  The value established is based on the closing Share price of the Company’s Shares as of the date the GBNC Agreement was signed.

 

As of June 30, 2012, the Company determined that no impairment of its investments in either the GBNC or Sino Crossing entities is required. However, subsequent to June 30, 2012, the Company has determined that an impairment of its investment in Sino Crossings may be appropriate to report in the period ending September 30, 2012 (See Note 20, Subsequent Events).

 

Acquisition of 75% Equity Interest in Herlong and its Subsidiaries Novi-Net and Montenegro Connect (See Note 19)

 

On December 6, 2011, the Company entered into the Herlong Business Cooperation Agreement with 7L and others to acquire a 75% equity interest in Herlong and its operating subsidiaries, Novi-Net and Montenegro Connect.  The Republic of Croatia granted Novi-Net a nationwide license to provide WBA and related services.  The license grants the use of 63 MHz of radio frequency spectrum in the 3.5 GHz bandwidth to serve Croatia’s 4.5 million citizens.  Since 2006, Novi-Net has been providing WBA services in five counties in northern Croatia under a regional license.  Novi-Net currently owns a data center, a network core and 11 BTS to provide WBA and related services to approximately 1,500 subscribers.  Montenegro Connect holds a nationwide license in Montenegro, covering 40 MHz in the 3.5 GHz bandwidth.  Montenegro Connect is a “greenfield” operation with two BTS installed for testing purposes and no commercial operations or subscriber base.  In exchange for its 75% equity interest in Herlong, the Company will contribute all capital and operating expenditures necessary to deploy and operate the Novi-Net Network and the Montenegro Network until each of Novi-Net and Montenegro Connect attain a positive cash flow.  

 

On April 2, 2012, the Company closed its acquisition of 75% of Herlong by paying a €500,000 (actual amount paid was $668,402 USD) down payment towards the total budgeted capital and operating expenses, plus credit for a €528,086 (approximately  $649,546 USD based on the exchange rate on the closing date) deposit on an initial equipment order placed with ZTE.  Herlong issued the Company 48,843 shares of its common stock, which represents 75% of Herlong’s total shares issued and outstanding.

 

Acquisition of 75% Equity Interest in Zapna (See Note 19)

 

On April 3, 2012, the Company, through its subsidiary Gulfstream Seychelles, entered into and closed the Zapna SPA with Zapna and its sole shareholder, Omair Khan (“Khan”).  The material terms of the Zapna SPA are as follows:

 

1.               Zapna’s capital stock consists of 100 authorized shares (“Zapna Stock”), of which all 100 shares have been issued to Khan, who has transferred 75 shares (“the Purchased Shares”) to Gulfstream Seychelles;

 

2.               The purchase price for the Purchased Shares is 66,667 shares of the Company’s Series A Common Stock, which the Company has issued in the name of Alhamd Holding Company, a new Danish corporation Khan formed;

 

3.               The closing took place upon the signature of all the parties, with the exchange of shares described above following as expeditiously as possible;

 

14
 

  

4.               Alhamd Holding Company is required to pledge all 25 shares of Zapna Stock (“Pledged Zapna Shares”) and all 66,667 of the Purchase Price Shares in favor of the Company as collateral for any liability of Kahn or Zapna for any claim for indemnification pertaining to breach of any representation or warranty by Kahn or Zapna under the Zapna SPA. Such pledge of the shares is pursuant to a pledge agreement attached to the Zapna SPA (“Pledge Agreement”). Subject to the Pledge Agreement, the pledge agent is required to release to Kahn or as Kahn directs: (i) the Purchase Price Shares 180 days following the closing date; and (ii) the Pledged Zapna Shares on the third anniversary of the closing date;

 

5.               Zapna’s board of directors is comprised of five directors, of which the Company has the right to appoint three and Kahn the right to appoint two.  Kahn’s directors have veto rights over certain fundamental decisions, including purchase of subsidiaries, public listing of Zapna’s assets, declaring bankruptcy or similar proceedings, or termination of employment of any of the three members of Zapna’s senior management, Khan, Hamad Raza and Connie Duedahl;

 

6.               Khan, Hamad Raza, and Connie Duedahl are eligible to participate in the Company’s employee stock option plan on the same basis as other senior management representatives of the Company of equal rank and upon similar criteria for award of options; provided that Zapna’s financial performance is expressly a criteria for an award of stock options of the Company.  Hamad Raza will continue to act as Zapna’s Chief Executive Officer at a salary reflected in a 2012 budget the Company has approved.  The Company has agreed to cover Zapna’s budgeted negative EBITDA, as reflected in the approved 2012 Zapna budget;

Acquisition of 75% Equity Interest in VN Tech

 

VN Tech has expertise, relationships and contracts to become a leading international manufacturer, integrator, and applications developer and patent holder for hydrogen and fuel cell power supply systems (“Fuel Cell Systems”) utilized in WBA networks. On April 1, 2011, the Company, VN Tech, and VN Tech’s sole shareholder Luo Hongye (“Luo”) entered into a Subscription and Shareholder Agreement (“the VN Tech Original Agreement”).  Under the VN Tech Original Agreement, the parties were to form a series of entities including a Cayman Island parent company, a Hong Kong wholly owned subsidiary of the Cayman company, and a PRC wholly owned subsidiary of the Hong Kong company that also qualified as a wholly owned foreign enterprise (“WFOE”) under PRC law. The Company would subscribe to 51% and VN Tech PRC to 49% of the equity interest of the entities comprising the joint venture. VN Tech would assign to WFOE its tangible and intangible assets associated with Fuel Cell Systems, for which the Company would pay VN Tech 5 million of its shares of Series A Common Stock.

 

The parties subsequently formed the Hong Kong company contemplated under the VN Tech Original Agreement, VN Tech Investment, Ltd. (HK) (“VN Tech HK”).  The parties are in the process of forming the Cayman Island company under the name VN Tech Investment, Ltd., a Cayman Island corporation (“VN Tech Cayman”).

 

On April 22, 2012, Gulfstream Seychelles and the Company entered into an Amended and Restated Subscription and Stockholder Agreement (“the VN Tech A&R Agreement”) with VN Tech and Luo. Under the VN Tech A&R Agreement, the parties deem it no longer necessary to form a WFOE in connection with this transaction. Instead, VN Tech will become the wholly owned subsidiary of VN Tech HK, which in turn will become a wholly owned subsidiary of VN Tech Cayman. Under the VN Tech A&R Agreement, the Company’s equity interest in the entities comprising the joint venture is increased from 51% to 75% and Luo is subscribing to the remaining 25% in the entities directly, instead of through VN Tech.  Also under the VN Tech A&R Agreement, the consideration the Company is paying Luo (instead of VN Tech) is increased from 50,000 to 10,000 shares of the Company’s Series A Common Stock. The terms of the VN Tech A&R Agreement are otherwise similar, but not identical to, the VN Tech Original Agreement, which the VN Tech A&R Agreement supersedes entirely. The material terms of the VN Tech A&R Agreement are as follows:

 

15
 

 

1.               The Company will subscribe to 75% and Luo to 25% of the stock of VN Tech HK.  Upon completion of the formation of VN Tech Cayman, the parties will assign their respective equity interests in VN Tech HK to VN Tech Cayman in exchange for the same percentage of equity interest in VN Tech Cayman, such that VN Tech Cayman will become the holding company for VN Tech HK and VN Tech.  In consideration for their respective interests in the business model, Luo will assign to VN Tech HK all of his stock or other equity membership interest in VN Tech and the Company will pay Luo 100,000 shares of its Series A Common Stock, which includes 50,000 Shares called for but not yet issued pursuant to the VN Tech Original Agreement. The Company will control the boards of directors of each of VN Tech Cayman, VN Tech HK, and VN Tech through the right to appoint four of five directors in each company;

 

2.               The parties contemplate that VN Tech will hold distribution rights of Fuel Cell Systems for telecommunications customers and markets within China, and VN Tech HK will hold all other worldwide distribution rights of Fuel Cell Systems. VN Tech HK will also provide marketing, sales and other service to VN Tech pursuant to a management services agreement, in exchange for compensation and upon other terms to be agreed by the parties;

 

3.               The Company is entitled to a 10% price discount on Fuel Cell Systems it purchases compared to the lowest price charged to any other telecommunications network carrier.  The Company’s discount will apply to usage by any telecommunications network carrier in which the Company has at least a 25% direct or indirect ownership interest;

 

4.               In the event the free cash flow and/or net operating income generated from the operations of VN Tech PRC and/or VN Tech HK exceeds the amount required for: (i) working capital requirements; (ii) payment of tax or provision therefore; (iii) outstanding loan obligations, and (iv) reserves for contingent future liabilities, any surplus profits will (to the extent allowed by applicable law) be distributed to the shareholders of VN Tech Cayman in full by way of dividends; and

 

5.               The VN Tech A&R Agreement became effective on April 22, 2012, when it was signed by all parties (“VN Tech Effective Date”).  The VN Tech Effective Date also constitutes the “Closing,” as that term is commonly understood in transactions of this nature.  All transfers of stock and other formalities described in the VN Tech A&R Agreement are considered contractual obligations subsequent and not conditions precedent to the rights and obligations of the parties contemplated in the VN Tech A&R Agreement.  On April 22, the Company issued 100,000 shares of its Series A Common Stock to Luo pursuant to the VN Tech A&R Agreement.

 

VN Tech recently completed an initial round of test trials commissioned by China’s largest mobile telephone operator, China Mobile Limited. China Mobile Limited has submitted a comprehensive report of the test trial results to key ministries of China’s Central Government. Meanwhile, China Telecom Corporation, China’s largest fixed line telephone operator, has also commissioned VN Tech to construct trial test sites in Beijing on its behalf. China’s Communications Standards Association has designated Luo to head the technical committee that will develop national standards and specifications in China for the use of hydrogen fuel cells in the telecommunication industry. After adoption, these standards will also be submitted to the Telecommunications Standards Sector of the International Telecommunication Union.

Isaac Agreement with the Company Related to the First Note and Second Note, the Second A&R Isaac SPA and Option to Acquire Interest in VN Tech

 

On February 23, 2012, the Company entered into the following two agreements with Isaac: (i) Agreement to Extend and Increase First Line of Credit Loan Agreement and Promissory Note, Cancel Stock Purchase Agreement, and Grant Option in VN Tech Agreement (“the Extension Agreement”); and (ii) a Second Line of Credit Loan Agreement and Promissory Note (“Second Note”).

 

18
 

 

In entering into the Extension Agreement, the parties agreed to extend the due date of the First Note to June 30, 2012 and to increase the credit limit under the First Note to reflect the total amount borrowed, namely $6,385,000 disbursed, plus the Holdback fees totaling $336,053, for a total principal balance of $6,721,053.  Interest in the amount of $332,794 had accrued on the principal balance, for a total amount due as of February 23, 2012 of $7,053,847 (“Pre-Extension Total Amount Due”).  In the Extension Agreement, the principal balance of the First Note is increased to $7,425,102 (“Increased Principal Balance”), representing the Pre-Extension Total Amount Due plus an additional 5% Holdback fee of $371,255.  Interest accrues on the Increased Principal Balance at the rate of 10% per annum.

 

The Extension Agreement grants Isaac an option to, at any time, convert all or any portion of the balance of principal and interest due under the First Note to Shares in favor of Isaac or any of its assigns.  The details of the conversion feature are to be agreed when the Company has additional authorized Shares available for issuance (this convertibility feature has been eliminated pursuant to an Amended and Restated Loan Agreement between the parties dated April 25, 2012).

 

The Extension Agreement also grants Isaac an option to acquire the Company’s 51% joint venture interest in its agreement with VN Tech. The Extension Agreement provides that the price of Isaac’s option is to be determined based on Isaac’s due diligence and a mutually agreed valuation of the VN Tech joint venture.  If Isaac exercises its option to acquire the Company’s 51% interest in VN Tech, the agreed value of that interest will be treated as an offset to the amount otherwise due under the First Note. Isaac’s option to acquire the Company’s interest in VN Tech has been eliminated pursuant the Amended and Restated Loan Agreement between the parties dated April 25, 2012.

 

In the Second Note, the Company promises to pay to the order of Isaac up to the principal sum of $7,368,421, or so much thereof as may be disbursed to, or for, the benefit of the Company by Isaac, in Isaac’s discretion and subject to Isaac’s approval of budgets identifying the Company’s proposed use of each funding request.  For each funding request, Isaac will retain a 5% Holdback as a set-up fee and compensation for Isaac’s due diligence. Each Holdback will be added to the principal balance and accrues interest along with the amount disbursed and outstanding from time to time. The total potential amount to be disbursed, net of the Holdback fees, is $7,000,000.  Amounts borrowed pursuant to the Second Note bear simple interest at the rate of 10% per annum.  Interest will be calculated based on the principal balance, as may be adjusted from time to time to reflect additional advances and/or partial repayments made on the Second Note.  Interest will accrue, but shall not be due, until the principal balance is due on December 31, 2012.

 

On April 25, 2012, the Company entered into an Amended and Restated Loan Agreement (“Isaac A&R Loan Amendment”) with Isaac.   The Isaac A&R Loan Amendment supersedes the terms of the Extension Agreement with Isaac described above. Under the Isaac A&R Loan Agreement, the First Note is cancelled and substituted for fourteen promissory notes in the principal amount of $500,000.00 each (“Amended Isaac Note #1 through Amended Isaac Note #14,” respectively), plus one promissory note in the amount of $425,102 (“Amended Isaac Note #15).  The maturity date of the Amended Isaac Note #1 is April 30, 2012, and the maturity date of each succeeding Amended Isaac Note #2-#15 is the 15th day and the last calendar day of each month in succession after April 30, 2012.  Interest accrues on each Amended Isaac Notes at 10% per annum from February 23, 2012.  The Company may prepay any of the Amended Isaac Notes in whole or in part prior to their maturity date without penalty.  

 

The A&R Loan Agreement confirms the cancellation of the previous stock purchase agreements between the Company and Isaac, as amended, remain cancelled.  All other terms of the Extension Agreement that are not consistent with the Isaac A&R Loan Agreement are of no further force and effect.  The A&R Loan Agreement recites that it has no effect on the Second Note also entered into between the Company and Isaac on February 23, 2012.

 

On April 27, 2012, the Company issued 336,932 Shares in settlement of Note #1, consisting of a pay-off of $500,000 and accrued interest of $8,767.

 

On June 13, 2012, the Company issued to Isaac 606,127 Shares in settlement of Note #2, consisting of a pay-off of $500,000 and accrued interest of $15,205.

The disbursement amount of the Morrell Note is $650,000. Morrell will retain from the Morrell Note a 5% Holdback as a set-up fee and compensation for Morrell’s due diligence. The difference between the disbursement amount and the principal amount represents a 5% Holdback fee, as a set-up fee and compensation for Morell’s due diligence. The maturity date of the Morrell Note is February 24, 2013. The Company may prepay the Morrell Note in whole or in part prior to its maturity date without penalty.

The disbursement amount of the McEwen Note is up to $1,000,000. McEwen will retain from each disbursement a 5% Holdback as a set-up fee and compensation for McEwen’s due diligence.

The Company may prepay the McEwen Note in whole or in part prior to its maturity date without penalty. The McEwen Note bears interest on the unpaid principal balance at 10% per annum.

The Second Note with Isaac provides that the Company and Isaac agree to add a conversion feature granting Isaac an option to convert all or a portion of the balance of the principal and interest due under the Second Note with Isaac to Shares. The details of the conversion feature will be agreed to between the parties when the Company has additional authorized Shares available for issuance. Upon such amendment or substitution of the Second Note with Isaac, the Company agreed to amend or substitute the Morrell Note with a promissory note containing identical conversion features to the Second Note with Isaac.

The Weal Note provides a conversion feature granting an option to convert all or a portion of the balance of principal and interest due under the Weal Note to Shares.  The details of the conversion feature will be agreed to between the parties to the Weal Note when the Company has additional authorized Shares available for issuance and when Isaac and the Company have agreed to a conversion feature as to the Second Note with Isaac.  Weal will have the same option to convert that Isaac will have when it is agreed to between the Company and Isaac with respect to the Second Note with Isaac.  Upon that agreement, the parties to the Weal Note will enter into an amendment to reflect the agreed upon conversion feature.

NOTE 10 DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

 

The Company's derivative financial instruments consisted of embedded derivatives related to the Amended Convertible Notes.  The embedded derivatives included certain conversion features.  The accounting treatment of derivative financial instruments required that the Company record the derivatives at their fair values as of the inception date of the Amended and Restated Convertible Note Purchase Agreements (estimated at $821,946) and at fair value as of each subsequent balance sheet date.  Any change in fair value was recorded as non-operating, non-cash income or expense at each reporting date.  If the fair value of the derivatives was higher at the subsequent balance sheet date, the Company recorded a non-operating, non-cash charge.  If the fair value of the derivatives was lower at the subsequent balance sheet date, the Company recorded non-operating, non-cash income.  At June 30, 2012, the conversion-related derivatives were valued using the Black Scholes Option Pricing Model, with the following assumptions: dividend yield of 0-% annual volatility of 153 % and risk free interest rate of 0.5% and recorded non-operating loss of $38,384 representing the change in fair value from December 31, 2011.  The derivatives were classified as short-term liabilities.  The derivative liability at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 was $259,298 and $220,914, respectively.

2011 Stock Option and Incentive Plan

 

On May 10, 2011, the Company adopted the "China Tel Group, Inc. 2011 Stock Option and Incentive Plan" ("the 2011 SOP").  The Company did so pursuant to a resolution of the Company’s Board of Directors and pursuant to a majority written consent of the shareholders of the Company’s Common Stock.  It was implemented pursuant to a Definitive Information Statement filed with the SEC and mailed to the shareholders of the Company’s Series A Common Stock and the Company’s Series B Common Stock (collectively, “Common Stock”).  The material terms of the 2011 SOP are as follows:

 

1.               The 2011 SOP is to be administered by the Company's Board of Directors or a committee of the Board, including a committee consisting of two or more non-employee directors to the extent required under applicable laws or rules of any stock exchange on which the Company's Shares are listed (any administrator, “the Committee");

 

2.               An award under the 2011 SOP may consist of incentive stock options, non-statutory stock options, restricted stock awards, unrestricted stock awards, performance stock awards, or stock appreciation rights, with the amount and type of any award at the discretion of the Committee;

 

3.               Eligible recipients under the 2011 SOP are all employees, officers, directors, consultants or advisors of the Company or any of its subsidiaries;

 

4.               The maximum number of Shares available for issuance under the 2011 SOP is 750,000, no more than 300,000 of which may be awarded other than as options or stock appreciation rights, and no more than 500,000 of which may be awarded to any one participant in any one taxable year of the Company.  Shares issued pursuant to an award reduce the maximum Shares remaining available for issuance under the 2011 SOP; however, Shares that are subject to any award that subsequently lapses, expires or is forfeited automatically become available for re-issuance.  In the event of any reorganization, merger, stock dividend, or stock split, the Committee may adjust the number or kind of securities available for issuance or payment under the 2011 SOP to avoid dilution or enlargement of the rights of participants under any prior award;

 

5.               The exercise price of any stock option must be at least 100% of the fair market value of a Share on the date of grant (110% with respect to an incentive stock option granted to a participant who owns more than 10% of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock of the Company or any parent or subsidiary of the Company).  Vesting and duration of any option is at the Committee's discretion up to a maximum of 10 years duration (5 years in the case of an incentive option to a participant with more than 10% voting power as described above).  Payment of the purchase price upon exercise of any option is to be in cash, except the Committee may accept payment through a broker exercise notice, a net share payment, or other any other form of payment acceptable to the Committee;

 

6.               Upon a participant's separation from employment or other service with the Company or subsidiary, certain unvested or unexercised rights with respect to prior awards outstanding under the Plan will terminate immediately or within three months following such separation, depending upon the type of award and the reason for separation; and

 

7.               The 2011 SOP is non-exclusive and does not limit the power or authority of the Company’s Board of Directors (“the Board”) to adopt, modify or terminate the 2011 SOP or such additional compensation arrangements as the Board may deem necessary or desirable.  The 2011 SOP supersedes and replaces entirely the Company's 2008 SOP.  The 2011 SOP terminates by its terms on December 31, 2020, unless earlier terminated by action of the Board, provided that awards outstanding upon termination may continue to be exercised, or to become free of restrictions, according to their terms.

 

On July 15, 2011, the Company issued 375,000 options to purchase Shares at an exercise price of $13.00 per Share.  The options were issued to eligible recipients under the 2011 SOP.  All options were fully vested upon issuance and constitute non-statutory options under the terms of the 2011 SOP.

Agreements with Related Parties

 

The Company is or has been a party to agreements with the following related parties:

 

Trussnet Delaware

 

Except as indicated below, since December 31, 2010 there have been no transactions, nor are there any currently proposed transactions, to which the Company was or is a participant in which the amount involved exceeds $48,717 (1% of the average of our total assets as of December 31, 2010 and December 31, 2011) and in which any director or executive officer, or any security holder who is known by the Company to own of record or beneficially own more than 5% of any class of the Company’s common stock, or any member of the immediate family of any of the foregoing persons, has an interest.

 

Since its acquisition of Trussnet Nevada, Trussnet Delaware has performed approximately $47 million in professional services, representing a significant amount of its operations, including the engineering, architectural and deployment services the Company provided relating to the Chinacomm Network.  The Company’s Chief Executive Officer, George Alvarez, its Chief Operating Officer, Mario Alvarez, and its Chief Administrative Officer, Isidoro Gutierrez, all were officers and shareholders of Trussnet Delaware.  They resigned their offices at Trussnet Delaware and transferred their equity interest in Trussnet Delaware to third parties prior to joining the Company.  Trussnet Delaware has paid consulting fees to Mario Alvarez, the Company’s Chief Operating Officer, and Kenneth L. Waggoner, the Company’s Executive Vice President Legal, General Counsel and Secretary, subsequent to its acquisition of Trussnet Nevada.

 

Pursuant to the Professional Services Agreement between Trussnet Nevada and Trussnet Delaware dated April 10, 2008 (“Trussnet Delaware Professional Services Agreement”), the Company agreed to pay Trussnet Delaware for its services at its standard hourly rates or based upon fixed fees for specific services.  As of December 31, 2010, the Company owed Trussnet Delaware in excess of $47 million.  Trussnet Delaware had advanced funds for the Company’s operations in anticipation of the Company receiving additional funding.  On October 1, 2009, Trussnet Nevada and Trussnet Delaware entered into a First Amendment of the Agreement for Professional Services (“First Amendment to Trussnet Delaware Professional Services Agreement”).  Among other things, the First Amendment to Trussnet Delaware Professional Services Agreement required Trussnet Nevada to commence paying for the professional services Trussnet Delaware had provided to Trussnet Nevada in connection with the Chinacomm Network at the rate of $10,000,000 per month, until the outstanding Trussnet Nevada obligation was paid in full.  The amounts due were to be paid through the issuance of Shares in accordance with the provisions of the First Amendment to Trussnet Delaware Professional Services Agreement.

 

24
 

 

During the term of the Trussnet Delaware Professional Services Agreement, as amended, the Company issued 90,890,640 Shares to Trussnet Delaware as payment for $47,017,934 of professional services Trussnet Delaware rendered to the Company.  Trussnet Delaware has been paid in full pursuant to the Trussnet Delaware Professional Services Agreement, as amended.

 

Except for the extension of credit for services performed, Trussnet Delaware provided all such services at prices and on terms and conditions that are the same as those that would result from arm’s-length negotiations between unrelated parties.

 

Trussnet Delaware subcontracted certain services developing applications software for the Chinacomm Network to Trussnet ADC Co. Inc.  The Company’s President, Colin Tay, was formerly the Chief Executive Officer of Trussnet ADC Co. Inc.  The Company’s President, Mr. Tay, was the Chief Executive Officer of Trussnet ADC Co. Inc. in the past.  Mr. Tay no longer has any involvement with Trussnet ADC Co. Inc. in any respect.

 

Antonios Isaac

 

Since January 1, 2009, Antonios Isaac, individually, through Negotiart, Inc. and Negotiart of America, Inc., has received both restricted Shares and free trading Shares registered pursuant to Form S-8 for professional services rendered to the Company as an independent contractor.  In addition, Antonios Isaac is the beneficial owner of Shares issued to Isaac pursuant to the stock purchase agreements discussed above.

 

Trussnet Capital Partners (HK), Ltd.

 

The Company acquired its option to purchase a 49% equity interest in Chinacomm Cayman from TCP, of which Colin Tay is the sole director and stockholder.  The purchase was on terms and conditions that are the same as those that would result from arm’s-length negotiations between unrelated parties.  Mr. Tay abstained from voting as a member of the Company’s Board of Directors in connection with this transaction, including all amendments thereto.

 

On June 10, 2010, the Company issued 58,867,119 Shares to TCP for the payment of $24,488,721 of interest and fees owed to TCP under the Fourth Amendment issued by the Company to TCP.  (See Note 4 for further information related to transactions with TCP.)

The Fischer Litigation

 

On May 22, 2009, a complaint was filed by Michael Fischer (“Fischer”) naming the Company as a defendant in the United States District Court for the Central District of California.  The complaint alleged a claim for breach of contract relating to the Company’s default under a Convertible Note entered into by the Company with Fischer.  The complaint requested damages of $1,000,000 plus interest at the rate of 10% per annum, court costs and attorneys’ fees.  Fisher obtained a judgment against the Company in the amount of $1,036,000 (“the Fischer Judgment”).  On or about June 30, 2010, the Company received by facsimile transmission a Statement of Claim against the Company.  The Statement of Claim attempted to register the Fischer Judgment in the Ontario, Canada Superior Court of Justice.  The Statement of Claim was never personally served on the Company, so the Company did not elect to respond given it already had the Fischer Judgment pending in the United States.  On or about September 22, 2010, Fisher purportedly served a Notice of Garnishment on Isaac.  In October 2010, Isaac was purportedly served with a Motion Record of the Plaintiff/Creditor (“the Fischer Motion”) attempting to enforce a garnishment of any funds Isaac pays to the Company pursuant to the A&R Isaac SPA.  Isaac responded to the Fischer Motion and filed a Cross-Motion against Fischer.  Effective December 31, 2010, the Company settled this case for $960,000 pursuant to a Settlement Agreement and Mutual General Release (“the Fischer Settlement Agreement”).  Fischer is receiving payments of $80,000.00 per month for 12 months pursuant to the Fischer Settlement Agreement.  Through the date of this Report, the Company has paid $560,000 pursuant to the Fischer Settlement Agreement.  The Company intends to complete its settlement payments to Fischer when sufficient funds to do so become available.

The Perezcalva Litigation

 

On August 7, 2009, a complaint was filed against the Company by Francisco Perezcalva (“Perezcalva”) in the United States District Court for the Southern District of California, Case No. CV09 1716H-POR.  The complaint alleges a claim for breach of contract arising from the Company’s default under a Convertible Note entered into by the Company with Gomez and sought damages in amount of $500,000 plus interest and costs.  The Company responded to the complaint.  The Company entered into a Stipulation for Entry of Judgment to resolve this litigation.  The Stipulation for Entry of Judgment provided for entry of a judgment in the amount of $500,000 plus interest and costs against the Company.   Effective as of October 18, 2010, the Company and Perezcalva entered into a Settlement Agreement and Mutual General Release related to the litigation (“the Perezcalva Settlement Agreement”).  The Perezcalva Settlement Agreement required the Company to pay $700,000 over a five-month period of time.  The settlement amount is being paid by issuing Perezcalva Shares.  The price per Share is equal to the volume-weighted average of the closing price of the Shares on the OTCBB for the ten-day period preceding the first day of the month in which a monthly settlement payment is being made.  All settlement payments have been made pursuant to the Perezcalva Settlement Agreement.  Counsel for Mr. Perezcalva is in the process of filing a Stipulation for Entry of Dismissal with prejudice of the entire case

 

The Olaechea Litigation

 

On December 13, 2010, a complaint was filed against the Company by Estudio Olaechea SOC. Civil DE R.L., a Peruvian business entity, in the Superior Court for the State of California, County of San Diego, Case No. 37-2010-00105897.  The complaint alleges a breach of contract arising from the Company’s default under a Promissory Note dated August 24, 2010 in the principal amount of $149,469.26.  The complaint sought that amount, plus interest and costs.  The Company stipulated to a judgment, which was entered on July 13, 2011, in the amount of $161,508.56.  The judgment, however, left unresolved how much attorneys’ fees were to be awarded to Olaechea.  Subsequently, the parties agreed to an amended judgment, which became effective on August 30, 2011.  The amended judgment resolved the remaining issue of the amount of attorneys’ fees by agreeing to the amount of $25,000 for attorneys’ fees, which yielded a total judgment amount of $188,411.31.  In addition, the amended judgment changed the name of the judgment debtor from China Tel Group, Inc. to VelaTel Global Communications, Inc. to reflect the Company’s name change.  As of the date of this Report, the Company has paid $47,500 of the amended judgment and owes the remaining balance.  Estudio Olaechea is undertaking efforts to collect on the unpaid balance of the amended judgment.

 

The Chinacomm Litigation

 

During May and June 2010, the Company paid $2.75 million into a Hong Kong bank account of Chinacomm Cayman, over which the Company had joint control with Chinacomm. These funds were intended for use towards capitalizing Yunji China. However, Chinacomm demanded that the Company make changes to the Gulfstream Subscription and Shareholders Agreement and to the TCP Subscription Agreement that would give Chinacomm complete control of all bank accounts, revenues, capital expenses, operating expenses and the corporate seal (also known under Chinese business practices as the “chop”) of Yunji China. The Company rejected Chinacomm’s demands and refused to authorize the release of the funds held in Chinacomm Cayman’s bank account to Yunji China. The Company attempted to negotiate with Chinacomm to resolve the impasse, in order to continue its investment in Chinacomm Cayman for the continued deployment and operation of the Chinacomm Network.

 

Meanwhile, Chinacomm unilaterally decided to deploy the Chinacomm Network independent of what the Company had designed for each of the first 12 cities of the Chinacomm Network and without the Company’s approval. Chinacomm decided to deploy fully the Chinacomm Network in Beijing and Shanghai. The Company was unaware of any other activity by Chinacomm to deploy any of the remaining ten cities included Phase 1 of the deployment plan the Company designed and paid for in connection with the Chinacomm Network.

 

26
 

 

There were extensive negotiations over the course of the next year between representatives of the Company and Chinacomm, including face-to-face negotiations in Beijing on several occasions. During the fourth quarter of 2011 the Company retained the Hong Kong law firm of Lawrence K.Y.Lo & Co. to investigate Chinacomm and its affiliated company, CECT Chinacomm Shanghai Co. Ltd.

 

On November 18, 2011, the Company, along with TCP (“the Plaintiffs”), commenced litigation against Chinacomm Limited, Thrive Century International Limited, Newtop Holdings Limited, Smart Channel Development Limited, Mong Sin, Qiu Ping, Yuan Yi, Chinacomm and CECT Chinacomm Shanghai Co. Ltd. (“the Defendants”) in The High Court of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region, Court of First Instance, Action No. 1978 of 2011 (“the Chinacomm Litigation”).

 

The Chinacomm Litigation arises out of the breach of numerous agreements between the Plaintiffs and some of the Defendants, including, but not limited to, the Framework Agreement and Subscription and Shareholders Agreements, related to the joint venture between the parties to those agreements for the deployment of the Chinacomm Network. In addition, the Chinacomm Litigation arises out of the deceitful representations by certain of the Defendants in connection with the issuance of licenses by applicable regulatory agencies in the PRC for the operation of the Chinacomm Network. Finally, the Litigation involves the unauthorized removal of Colin Tay as an authorized signatory to a joint bank account Chinacomm Cayman has with Standard Chartered Bank (HK) Limited “(Standard Chartered”), one of three Standard Chartered bank accounts in the name of Chinacomm Cayman (“the Standard Chartered Accounts”) and into which the Plaintiffs deposited $4,749,599. The Chinacomm Litigation seeks injunctive relief, compensatory damages, including, but not limited to: (i) loss of profits; (ii) restitution; (iii) reinstatement of any funds taken from the Standard Chartered Accounts; (iv) an accounting of any funds taken from the Standard Chartered Accounts; (v) damages for the amounts the Company spent on: (a) a Request for Proposal; (b) the development of a WBA Deployment Guide Book which includes the specifications for the design and market for each of the 12 cities comprising Phase 1 of the Chinacomm Network, equipment testing and procurement, deployment, office planning and staffing; (c) site acquisition to be utilized in connection with the 12 Phase 1 cities; (d) radio frequency engineering; (e) the architectural and engineering work for each of the 12 Phase 1 cities; and (v) court costs, and further and other relief as the Court may deem appropriate.

 

On November 18, 2011, the High Court issued an ex parte order granting the Plaintiffs’ application for injunctive relief, ordering that Chinacomm Limited, Thrive Century International Limited, Newtop Holdings Limited, Qiu Ping and Yuan Yi be restrained until further order of the High Court from: (i) dealing in the Standard Chartered Accounts; (ii) incurring any liability, creating charges, mortgages, encumbrances or liens to the detriment of Chinacomm Cayman; (iii) transferring or changing the existing shareholdings or proceeding with deregistration or dissolution of Chinacomm Cayman; and (iv) disposing of any fixed or current assets of Chinacomm Cayman. In addition, the High Court ordered Qiu Ping, the President of Chinacomm and CECT Chinacomm Shanghai Co. Ltd., and Yuan Yi, the Chairman of the board of directors of these two companies, from disposing of or otherwise dealing with these companies’ assets locally or worldwide for purposes of the orders in the amount of $4,749,599. In addition, the High Court ordered Chinacomm, Qiu Ping and Yuan Yi to disclose all relevant information related to the Standard Chartered Accounts within seven days of the aforementioned orders (collectively, the orders referred to herein as “the Injunction Order”). The Injunction Order was to remain in effect until November 25, 2011. On November 25, 2011, the Injunction Order was continued by the High Court until further order of the High Court.

 

On February 17, 2012, the Plaintiffs filed their complete Statement of Claim seeking the relief identified above.

 

On May 23, 2012, the Defendants filed their Defenses to the Statement of Claim and filed a Counter-Claim against the Plaintiffs. That Counter-Claim alleges breaches of the agreements between the parties and seeks damages and other relief as a result thereof.

 

On August 1, 2012, the Plaintiffs filed their Reply to the Defenses and Defenses to the Counter-Claims against the Plaintiffs.

 

On April 11, 2012, the High Court rejected the first Defendants’ application for withdrawing a sum HK$100,000 from the Standard Chartered Accounts for their legal costs and continued the Injunction Order in effect pending further order of the High Court.

 

On or about June 22, 2012, the Plaintiffs discovered that a sum of $4.5 million of the deposited funds in the Standard Chartered Accounts had been transferred by Qiu Ping of Chinacomm Cayman into a personal bank account with the DBS Bank (HK) Limited of another board member of Chinacomm, Feng Xiao Ming. The Plaintiffs joined Feng Xiao Ming as the tenth Defendant in the High Court Action and further obtained worldwide injunction against him up to the limit of $4.5 million. Meanwhile the Plaintiffs are pressing for disclosure of information from some of the Defendants concerning the movement of the unauthorized transfer the funds in order to trace back the money dissipated. The Plaintiffs believe that by further disclosure proceedings and tracing actions, the identities of the recipients can be uncovered and further Injunction Orders will be applied for.

 

On July 19, 2012, there was a hearing to determine whether the Injunction Order should remain in place pending the outcome of the litigation. Following oral arguments from both sides in the High Court, judgment was reserved. In the meantime, the two Injunctions Orders were continued until further order.

Joinmax Professional Services Agreement

 

On April 10, 2009, the Company and Joinmax Engineering & Consultants (HK) Ltd.

VeratNet Network

 

On December 19, 2011, the Company entered into a Standby Business Cooperation Agreement (“Standby BCA”) with 7L and others to acquire a controlling interest in Kerseyco and its operating subsidiary, VeratNet.  The following discussion summarizes the terms of the Standby BCA because the Standby BCA was in force as of the period ending June 30, 2012. However, on August 16, 2012, the parties to the Standby BCA entered into an agreement terminating all rights and obligations under the Standby BCA due to frustration of purpose. The termination is discussed further in Note 20, Subsequent Events.

 

VeratNet is one of the leading telecommunications operators and internet service providers in Serbia, offering a full range of telecommunication services, including ADSL broadband service nationwide and WBA services in three cities where it holds radio frequency licenses, including Belgrade which is Serbia’s capital and largest city.  VeratNet also offers specialty services to business customers, such as international private leased circuit services, dedicated wireless internet lines and dedicated web server hosting.  VeratNet currently owns a data center, a network core and 11 BTS.  VeratNet has more than 50 employees who serve more than 18,000 subscribers.

 

30
 

 

The Company will acquire at least a 51% equity interest in Kerseyco (“the Company’s 51% Investment”) in exchange for payment of all of the capital expenditures, operating expenditures, debt service, and other negative cash flow through the date the overall operations of Kerseyco and VeratNet become cash flow positive, including the full cost and/or financing to design, purchase, install and deploy 11 BTS and other components of equipment and software capable of delivering WBA service to a minimum defined subscriber service level, along with expenses associated with administration, sales, marketing, customer support, office space required at such subscriber service levels.  The Company’s minimum cash commitment (“the Company’s 51% Cash Commitment”) is €2,400,000, payable as: (i) the full value of the down payment for any of the equipment included in the Company’s 51% Investment that the Company has paid to ZTE prior to closing of the BCA; (ii) €350,000 at closing of the BCA; and (iii) installments of at least €250,000, each payable every 90 days following closing of the BCA, until the Company’s 51% Cash Commitment is paid in full.

 

At such time as is advantageous, either before or after the signing or closing of the Standby BCA, the Company may decide to increase its equity interest in Kerseyco to 65% (“the Company’s 65% Investment”) in exchange for an increased level of capital expenditures, operating expenses, debt service and other negative cash flow associated with expanding VeratNet’s WBA network to a total of 26 BTS and other components of equipment and software capable of delivering WBA service to a minimum defined subscriber service level, along with expenses associated with administration, sales, marketing, customer support, office space required at such subscriber service levels.  The Company’s minimum cash commitment (“the Company’s 65% Cash Commitment”) is €3,000,000, which amount is inclusive of the Company’s 51% Cash Commitment, payable as: (iv) the full value of the down payment for any of the equipment included in the Company’s 65% Investment and not previously paid to ZTE pursuant to the Company’s 51% Investment; (v) the same €350,000 at closing of the Standby BCA, if the Company decides to make the Company’s 65% Investment instead of the Company’s 51% Investment; and (vi) additional installments of at least €250,000, each payable the earlier of every 90 days following closing of the Standby BCA or following the last payment made pursuant to the Company’s 51% Investment, until the Company’s 65% Investment is paid in full.

 

At such time as is advantageous after the closing of the Standby BCA, either as a result of subscriber growth within VeratNet’s existing license territory, and/or if VeratNet is awarded licenses covering additional geographic regions in Serbia, the Company may increase its equity interest in Kerseyco to 75% (“the Company’s 75% Investment”) in exchange for an increased level of capital expenditures, operating expenditures, debt service and other negative cash flow associated with expanding VeratNet’s WBA network to a total of 50 BTS and other components of equipment and software capable of delivering WBA service to a minimum defined subscriber service level, along with expenses associated with administration, sales, marketing, customer support, office space required at such subscriber service levels.  The Company’s minimum cash commitment (“the Company’s 75% Cash Commitment”) is €4,200,000, payable as: (vii) €400,000 upon the Company’s decision to increase to Investor’s 75% Investment; (ii) the amount required as down payment on any of the equipment included in the Company’s 75% Investment and not previously paid to either ZTE or the Company pursuant to the Company’s 51% and 65% Cash Commitments combined; and (vii) additional installments of at least €250,000, each payable the earlier of every 90 days following losing of the Standby BCA or following the last payment made pursuant to the Company’s 51% and/or 65% Cash Commitment, until the Company’s 75% Cash Commitment is paid in full.

 

The Company will be issued shares of Kerseyco’s common stock commensurate with making the Company’s 51%, 65% and 75% Investment.  Whenever the Company’s equity interest in Kerseyco is increased, such increase may be achieved by any combination of transfer of shares of common stock from other shareholders or issuance of new additional shares, in the discretion of Kerseyco’s Board of Directors.

 

Independent Contractor Agreements

 

Effective January 16, 2012, all employees of the Company, with the exception of Colin Tay, commenced providing consulting services to the Company pursuant to their respective Independent Contractor Agreements.  From January 1, 2012 until January 16, 2012, they were providing services to the Company as employees.

 

Equipment Contracts for Montenegro Connect and Novi-Net WBA Networks

 

On May 10, 2012, the Company entered into three related contracts and three purchase orders with ZTE for the supply of infrastructure equipment and software for the Company’s WBA projects in Croatia and Montenegro. The aggregate price of the goods covered by the three contracts and the purchase order associated with each contract is $7,001,870.10. The components of each contract / purchase order are described as follows:

 

Equipment Contract and Purchase Order for Montenegro Connect. Total contract price $820,304.29 for 25 BTS, including their back up power supply and installation materials, 32 microwave radios and antennae, and data center core equipment including back up power supply, gateway equipment, servers, routers, switches and racks.

Total contract price $1,280,256.81 for 50 BTS, including their back up power supply and installation materials, nine microwave radios and antennae, and data center core equipment including back up power supply, gateway equipment, servers, routers, switches and racks.

 

Software Contract and Purchase Order for Herlong. The total contract price is $4,901,309.00 for all software associated with the equipment described above, including access gateways, lawful interception gateways, elements management, network management systems, operations maintenance, universal subscriber databases, switching and router software, and mobile broadband wireless BTS software systems.

 

31
 

 

Each of Montenegro Connect, Novi-Net and Herlong are contracting parties to one contract and its associated purchase order for purposes of delivery of goods and allocation of value on the balance sheets of the Company’s subsidiaries. Herlong will license the software it has contracted to purchase to Montenegro Connect and Novi-Net. The Company is a contracting party to all contracts and purchase orders for purposes of guaranteed payment of the purchase price. The Company has previously paid $1 million as aggregate down payment for all contracts, and will pay $300,000 additional down payment within 15 days of the date the contracts and purchase orders were signed, and $200,000 additional down payment within 15 days of the date the equipment and software is available for inspection at the port of delivery, Hong Kong. Each past and future installment of down payment has been allocated pro rata in relation to the total contract price for each contract. The contract terms common to all three contracts and all three purchase orders are as follows:

 

All equipment and software includes a one-year warranty.

 

The delivery terms are “FCA Hong Kong.” The Company is responsible for payment of shipping and other costs of transport to final destination, customs, duty and value added tax.

 

The purchase price, net of down payment described above, is seller financed by ZTE for 2.5 years, with a one-year grace period commencing on the bill of lading date for each purchase order. The principal amount financed is payable in three equal semi-annual installments, with the first installment due 180 days after expiration of the grace period. Interest accrues on the unpaid balance at an interest rate equal to the 6-month LIBOR rate plus a margin of 2.5%. Each installment will include principal repayment plus the interest accrued. ZTE has a mortgage on 100% of the goods covered under each contract, and

 

Each contract provides for protection of intellectual property and other confidential information, and events, circumstances or limitations describing the rights of either party to delay performance, assign rights, terminate, or enforce remedies through arbitration under each contract, all upon terms the Company believes to be standard in commercial contracts of a similar nature.

 

On July 3, 2012, pursuant to the agreement between the Company and Ironridge Global, IV (“Ironridge”) described below in Note 20, Subsequent Events, ZTE assigned to Ironridge all right to its account receivable with the Company for the remaining $500,000 down payment. Ironridge paid ZTE the first $300,000 installment of the remaining down payment on or about August 13, 2012, and is obligated to pay ZTE the remaining $200,000 installment on or about September 13, 2012.

 

As of the date of this Report, all equipment and software covered under the ZTE contracts for the Company’s WBA project in Croatia and Montenegro has been manufactured and delivered to Hong Kong by ZTE. The Company has caused all of the equipment and software to be delivered to its final country destination, except for certain microwave equipment that is part of the Montenegro purchase order that was back-ordered and manufactured later by ZTE. It is currently in transit to Montenegro.

 

NOTE 17 FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT

 

The Company adopted the provisions of ASC 825-10 on January 1, 2008.  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.

 

32
 

 

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 and is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

 

Upon adoption of ASC 825-10, there was no cumulative effect adjustment to beginning retained earnings and no impact on the consolidated financial statements.

 

The carrying value of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, short-term borrowings (including convertible notes payable), and other current assets and liabilities approximate fair value, because of their short-term maturity.

 

Items recorded or measured at fair value on a recurring basis in the accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements consisted of the following items as of June 30, 2012:

   

Quoted Prices

    Total  
Derivative Liability   $ -     $ -     $ 259.298     $ 259.298  

 

The following is a reconciliation of the derivative liability for which Level 3 inputs were used in determining fair value:

 

Beginning balance as of December 31, 2011  $220,914 
Change in value of derivative liability during 2012   38,384 
Ending balance as of June 30, 2012  $259,298 

 

The Company's derivative liability was valued using pricing models, and the Company generally uses similar models to value similar instruments.  Where possible, the Company verifies the values produced by its pricing models to market prices.  Valuation models require a variety of inputs, including contractual terms, market prices, yield curves, credit spreads, measures of volatility, and correlations of such inputs.  These financial liabilities do not trade in liquid markets, and, as such, model inputs cannot generally be verified and do involve significant management judgment.  Such instruments are typically classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.  The change in fair value of the derivative liability is included as a component of other income in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Loss.

 

NOTE 18 NET LOSS PER SHARE

 

The Company accounts for net loss per Share in accordance with ASC subtopic 260-10, “Earnings Per Share,” which requires presentation of basic and diluted EPS on the face of the statement of operations for all entities with complex capital structures and requires a reconciliation of the numerator and denominator of the basic EPS computation to the numerator and denominator of the diluted EPS.

 

Basic net loss per Share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of shares of the Company’s Series A Common Stock outstanding during each period.  It excludes the dilutive effects of potentially issuable Shares, such as those related to Convertible Notes.  Diluted net loss per Share is calculated by including potentially dilutive Share issuances in the denominator.  However, diluted net loss per Share for the period from June 30, 2011 through June 30, 2012 does not reflect the effects of Shares potentially issuable upon conversion of Convertible Notes and outstanding warrants.  These potentially issuable Shares would have an anti-dilutive effect on the Company’s net loss per Share

 

NOTE 19 ACQUISITIONS

 

On April 2, 2012, the Company closed its acquisition of 75% of Herlong by paying a €500,000 ($668,402 USD) down payment towards the total budgeted capital and operating expenses, plus the Company has committed to invest another $3,065,767 into Herlong.  Herlong issued the Company 48,843 shares of its common stock, which represents 75% of Herlong’s total shares issued and outstanding.

The Assigned Accounts relate to: (i) the remaining down payment for infrastructure equipment and software purchased from ZTE for expansion of its Croatia WBA network and deployment of the Montenegro Connect WBA network; (ii) the cost of shipping, insurance and other transport logistics services to deliver the equipment and software described above from its place of manufacture in China to its ultimate destinations; (iii) the proof of funds deposit required as registered capital for formation of a PRC operating company pursuant to the exclusive services contract between the Company and NGSN; and (iv) amounts previously financed for consumer terminals delivered to VelaTel Peru as inventory for resale to customers.

The Order was entered on July 3, 2012 by the Superior Court of the State of California, County of Los Angeles, Central District. In addition to the Initial Issuance, the Order also provides for an adjustment in the total number of Shares which may be issuable to Ironridge, based on a calculation period for the transaction defined as that number of consecutive trading days following the date on which the Initial Shares have been issued, received in Ironridge’s account in electronic form and fully cleared for trading (“Issuance Date”) required for the aggregate trading volume of the Shares, as reported by Bloomberg LP, to exceed $6.5 million (“Calculation Period”). Pursuant to the Order, Ironridge will receive an aggregate of (a) 1,000,000 Shares, plus (b) that number of Shares (the "Final Amount") with an aggregate value equal to (v) the sum of the Claim Amount plus a 6% agent fee and plus Ironridge’s reasonable attorney fees and expenses (less $10,000 previously paid); and (vi) divided by 80% of the following: the volume weighted average price ("VWAP") of the Shares during the Calculation Period, not to exceed the arithmetic average of the individual daily VWAPs of any five of each consecutive twenty trading days during the Calculation Period (any increment with fewer than twenty trading days will have the days added to the final increment). The Order further provides that if, at any time during the Calculation Period, the total Shares previously issued to Ironridge are less than any reasonably possible Final Amount, or a daily VWAP is below 80% of the closing price on the day before the Issuance Date, Ironridge will have the right to request (subject to the limitation below), and the Company will, upon Ironridge’s request, reserve and issue additional Shares (each, an "Additional Issuance"), subject to a 9.99% beneficial ownership limitation specified in the Order. At the end of the Calculation Period: (vii) if the sum of the Initial Issuance and any Additional Issuance is less than the Final Amount, the Company shall issue additional Shares to Ironridge, up to the Final Amount; and (viii) if the sum of the Initial Issuance and any Additional Issuance is greater than the Final Amount, Ironridge shall promptly return any remaining Shares to the Company and its transfer agent for cancellation.

 

In connection with the transaction, Ironridge represented that it does not hold any short position in the Shares and warranted that it would not to engage in or affect, directly or indirectly, any short sale of the Shares.

 

The issuance to Ironridge is exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, pursuant to Section 3(a)(10) thereof, as an issuance of securities in exchange for bona fide outstanding claims, where the terms and conditions of such issuance are approved by a court after a hearing upon the fairness of such terms and conditions.

 

Series B Stock Issuance to Officers of the Company

 

On July 10, 2012, and pursuant to section 78.315 of the Nevada Revised Statutes (“NRS”), the Board executed a Unanimous Written Consent authorizing three separate corporate actions. The Board approved the issuance of a total of 661,817 Series B Shares to three officers of the Company as follows: (i) Executive Vice President Legal, General Counsel and Secretary, Kenneth L. Waggoner, 220,605 Series B Shares; (ii) Chief Financial Officer, Carlos Trujillo, 220,606 Series B Shares; and (iii) Vice-President of Mergers & Acquisitions, Kenneth Hobbs, 220,606 Shares (“Series B Issuance to Officers”). The Series B Issuance to Officers became effective on July 18, 2012.

 

As of July 10, 2012, there were issued and outstanding 11,722,702 Series A Shares, and 1,338,182 Series B Shares. The previously issued and outstanding Series B Shares are either owned or controlled via irrevocable proxies by two members of the Company’s management: Chief Executive Officer George Alvarez holds proxies for 669,091 Series B Shares, and President Colin Tay owns 669,091 Series B Shares. Inasmuch as each B Share is entitled to ten votes per share, management would lose control of the voting power of the Common Stock upon the future issuance of approximately 166 million additional Series A Shares in the aggregate. The Board believed it is in the best interests of the Company to maintain management control, including avoidance of the expense of soliciting proxies for corporate actions requiring shareholder approval. The Board further believed it is in the best interests of the Company to diversify the voting power among members of the executive management team. The Series B Issuance to Officers accomplishes these goals by issuing all remaining authorized but not previously issued Series B Shares equally (save one share for rounding) to three executive officers, none of whom previously owned or controlled any Series B Shares. Following the Series B Issuance to Officers, all 2,000,000 currently authorized Series B Shares will be issued and outstanding to five separate executive officers, which will preserve management voting control until a total of all 20,000,000 authorized Series A Shares will have been issued. The same ratios of authorized Series A Shares to authorized Series B Shares will be maintained as a result of the Reverse Stock Split and the Increase in Authorized Shares, discussed below.

 

The Reverse Stock Split

 

On July 10, 2012, the Board confirmed and finalized the terms of a reverse stock split whereby the number of: (i) issued Series A Shares; (ii) authorized Series A Shares; (iii) issued Series B Shares; and (iv) authorized Series B shares would all be reduced by a ratio of 100:1 (“Reverse Stock Split”). The Board had previously approved the Reverse Stock Split by a Unanimous Written Consent of the Board effective March 20, 2012, subject to an approval process through the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”). FINRA approval having been obtained (subject only to filing a Certificate of Change with the Nevada Secretary of State) and shareholder approval not being required, the Board approved the filing of the Certificate of Change with the Nevada Secretary of State, which occurred on July 18, 2012. The Reverse Stock Split became effective upon confirmation of FINRA approval on July 23, 2012.

 

Increase in the Number of Authorized Shares of the Company’s Series A and B Common Stock

 

On July 10, 2012, the Board approved an increase in the number of authorized Series A Shares and Series B Shares that will be available for issuance following the Reverse Stock Split by a ratio of 50-for-1, whereby the total number of authorized Series A Shares would be 1,000,000,000 and the total number of authorized Series B Shares would be 100,000,000 (“Increase in Authorized Shares”). In addition, the Board recommended that the shareholders of Common Stock as of the Record Date defined below approve by majority written consent the Board’s authorization to effectuate the Increase in Authorized Shares.

Definitive Information Statement to Increase the Amount of Authorized Series A and B Common Stock

 

On July 10, 2012 and pursuant to section 78.320 of the NRS, the Company received, by written consent in lieu of a regular or special meeting, the approval of shareholders holding 2,207,384 shares of Common Stock, representing 56.8% of the total possible votes outstanding, an amendment of the Company’s Articles of Incorporation to effectuate the Increase in Authorized Shares.

 

The Board fixed July 10, 2012, as the record date (“Record Date”) for determining the shareholders entitled to give their written consent to the Increase in Authorized Shares. The shareholders who hold, as of the Record Date, a majority of the voting power of the Company’s Series A Common Stock and its Series B Common Stock executed a written consent resolution (“Majority Written Consent”) approving the Increase in Authorized Shares. Specifically, holders of 869,202 Series A Shares (with a power of one vote per share) and 1,338,182 Series B Shares (with a power of ten votes per share), equaling 56.8% of the total voting power of all of the Common Stock issued and outstanding as of the Record Date, were cast in favor of the Increase in Authorized Shares. Inasmuch as the shareholders of the Company’s Common Stock holding 56.8% of the voting power of the Company’s outstanding Common Stock had already approved the Increase in Authorized Shares, the Company did not seek approval for the Increase in Authorized Shares from any of the Company’s other shareholders, nor will they be given an opportunity to vote on the proposal to effectuate the Increase in Authorized Shares. All necessary corporate approvals were obtained by the Company, and the Definitive Information Statement was furnished to the Company’s shareholders solely for the purpose of providing advance notice to the Company’s shareholders of the Increase in Authorized Shares, as required by the Exchange Act.

 

Under Section 14(c) of the Exchange Act and Rule 14c-2 promulgated thereunder, a corporate action approved by Majority Written Consent cannot become effective until 20 days after the date a Definitive Information Statement is sent to the shareholders of the Company’s Common Stock. The Definitive Information Statement was scheduled to be mailed to the Company’s shareholders on or about August 1, 2012. Therefore, the Company estimates the effective date of the Increase in Authorized Shares to be on or about August 21, 2012, (“Effective Date”).

 

Azur Notice of Arbitration

 

On July 13, 2012, Azur served a Notice of Arbitration against the Company.  The claim was filed with the Hong Kong International Arbitration Centre (“HKIAC”) and was brought pursuant to Article 3 of the United Nations Commission on International Trade Law Arbitration Rules (“UNCITRAL Arbitration Rules,”) for breach of the Sino Crossings Agreements.  The claim alleges that Azur suffered damages and losses due to breaches by the Company in implementing the terms of the Sino Crossings Agreements.  In the claim, Azur demanded acknowledgment of termination and a declaration of rescission of the Sino Crossings Agreements.  Further, it demanded indemnification by the Company in the amount of $2,000,000 for lost opportunities.  On August 11, 2012, the Company responded to the allegations of Azur, asserted counterclaims against Azur, and named additional parties the Company requested be joined into the arbitration proceeding.  The parties are awaiting appointment of an arbitrator for the proceedings.

 

Because Azur’s arbitration claim presents an indication Azur no longer intends to perform its obligations under the parties’ agreements, the Company is evaluating but has not yet made a determination whether it will be necessary to impair the value of its investment in the Sino Crossings Joint Venture commencing with the period ending September 30, 2012.

 

Termination of Standby BCA for Acquisition of Kerseyco

 

On August 16, 2012, the Company, Kerseyco, 7L and the other shareholders of Kerseyco entered into an agreement terminating the rights and obligations of all parties under the Standby BCA for the Company’s acquisition of Kerseyco described in Note 16, Commitments and Contingencies, above. On July 10, 2012, Serbia’s Republic Agency for Electronic Communications (“RATEL”) denied the application of Kerseyco’s operating subsidiary VeratNet to replace equipment on any of VeratNet’s eleven existing transmission sites. RATEL had previously denied VeratNet’s application to expand its network on fifteen additional transmission sites. Although RATEL justified its decisions on the basis that it is currently changing the law whereby VeratNet and other operators will be entitled to participate in a spectrum tender process by which VeratNet may be awarded a national WBA license in exchange for its existing regional WBA license, there has been no progress in this process during the time the Standby BCA has been in effect. The parties concluded that the essential purpose of the Standby BCA had been frustrated through no fault of any of the parties.

 

Sales of Unregistered Securities of the Company

 

With the exception of the following sale of unregistered securities, all information required by Item 701 of Regulation S-K has been included in either a current Report on Form 8-K during the period covered by this Report or in the Company’s Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended March 31, 2012 and filed with the SEC on May 21, 2012:

 

On August 17, 2012, the Company issued 531,085 Shares and 531,085 warrants to America Orient, LLC in partial payment of a promissory note in the amount of $500,000 due May 31, 2012 in favor of Isaac Organization, Inc. and assigned to America Orient, LLC. Each warrant has an exercise price of $ 0.0845 and an exercise term of three years.  This sale of Shares resulted in a reduction of $20,904 in notes payable of the Company.

 

The restricted Shares issued to the aforementioned persons and/or entities relied upon exemptions provided for in Sections 4(2) and 4(5) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, including Regulation D promulgated thereunder based on the aforementioned knowledge of the Company’s operations and financial condition and experience in financial and business matters that allowed him to evaluate the merits and risk of receipt of these Shares.

Corporate History

 

VelaTel Global Communications, Inc. (sometimes referred to in this Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended June 30, 2012, as “the Company”, “us”, “our” and “we”) was incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on September 19, 2005 under its former name, Mortlock Ventures, Inc., for the purpose of acquiring and developing mineral properties.  During the quarter ended March 31, 2008, the Company changed its business purpose and commenced concentrating on the telecommunications industry.  The Company changed its name to China Tel Group, Inc. on April 8, 2008 and acquired Trussnet Nevada (defined below) on May 21, 2008.

 

37
 

 

On May 21, 2008, we entered into a Reorganization and Merger Agreement pursuant to which our wholly owned subsidiary, Chinacomm Acquisition, Inc. (“Acquisition Subsidiary”), merged with and into Trussnet USA, Inc., a Nevada corporation (“Trussnet Nevada”).  Pursuant to the terms of the Reorganization and Merger Agreement, the Acquisition Subsidiary and Trussnet Nevada conducted a short-form merger under Nevada law, as a result of which Trussnet Nevada, as the surviving corporation, became our wholly owned subsidiary.  In exchange for all of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock of Trussnet Nevada, we issued 66,909,089 shares of the Company’s Series B common Stock (“Series B Common Stock”).  In addition, pursuant to the Reorganization and Merger Agreement, certificates representing 57,500,000 shares of our Series A common stock (“Series A Common Stock” or “Shares”) held by our shareholders prior to the merger were returned to us and cancelled.

 

On July 25, 2011, we changed our name to VelaTel Global Communications, Inc.  We did so to better define our positioning as a key leader in deploying and operating wireless broadband access (“WBA”) networks worldwide.

 

During the first quarter of 2012, we commenced our planned operations as we deployed our WBA network in Peru.  Prior to that, we were a development stage company as defined by the ASC subtopic 915 Development Stage Entities.  We accumulated a deficit during our development stage of $253,600,984.

 

Executive Summary of Our Businesses

 

The Company currently holds investments or contracts in nine projects that we refer to as: (i) the VelaTel Peru Network; (ii) the GBNC Network; (iii) the VN Tech Fuel Cell Business; (iv) the Exclusive Services Agreement with NGSN; (v) the Exclusive Services Agreement with Aerostrong; (vi) the Sino Crossings Fiber Joint Venture; (vii) Zapna Voice Applications; (viii) the Novi-Net Network; and (ix) the Montenegro Connect Network.  The Company’s primary business model is to combine its engineering and deployment expertise, its equity funding relationships, its vendor partnership, radio frequency spectrum, fiber optic cable and concession rights assets acquired through a subsidiary or a joint venture relationship to create and operate WBA networks worldwide.  We offer or will offer internet access, voice, video, and data services to the subscribers of various WBA networks we own and/or operate.  The Company’s secondary business model is to distribute products and services used in connection with WBA networks, specifically hydrogen fuel cells used as a back-up power source for certain transmission equipment, and devices and services that enable lower cost voice long distance and voice and data roaming fees to subscribers of cellular, voice over internet protocol (“VoIP”) or WBA networks.  Each of these projects is summarized immediately below.  Each project is presented in the chronological order in which we first formalized our ownership or other legal rights in each project.  We have included references to projects or milestone events that occurred subsequent to the period ended June 30, 2012 to the extent such events are material to our ongoing operations.

 

Our present operational focus is on the deployment of WBA networks in emerging international markets, using either 2.5 GHz or 3.5 GHz radio frequency spectrum.  Our current businesses are in Peru, The People’s Republic of China (“PRC” or “China”), Croatia, Montenegro and Denmark.

 

VelaTel Peru Network

 

On April 15, 2009, we acquired 95% of the equity of VelaTel Peru, S.A., formerly known as Perusat, S.A. (“VelaTel Peru”), a Peruvian telecommunications company supplying fixed line and VoIP telephone services.  The Company controls 2.5 GHz spectrum licenses covering eight cities in Peru.  As a 95% controlled subsidiary, the Company controls the board of directors and consolidates the financial activity of its subsidiary.  The Company finances all capital and operating expenditures of VelaTel Peru.

 

The first phase of the Company’s deployment of the VelaTel Peru Network includes geographic coverage in the cities of Trujillo, Ica, Piura, Chiclayo and Chimbote.  In September, 2011, the Company launched its WBA network in these cities.  The Company is selling prepaid and postpaid plans, and branded consumer devices using VelaTel Peru’s brand name “GO MOVIL.”  We are in the process of obtaining building permits in the cities of Arequipa and Cusco in order to increase our area of WBA coverage.

 

Sino Crossings Fiber Joint Venture

 

On November 11, 2010, we entered into two related Subscription and Shareholder Agreements (“Sino Crossings Agreements”) pursuant to which the Company agreed to subscribe to 51% of the equity interest in China Crossing Cayman.  Azur Capital (NBD) SBN BHD (“Azur”) will subscribe to the other 49% of China Crossing Cayman.  China Crossing Cayman will, in turn, subscribe to 49% and Shanghai Ying Yue Network Technology Ltd. (“YYNT”) to 51% of the equity in a PRC corporation Azur is in the process of forming.  The Company will have the right to appoint a majority of the members of the boards of directors of all entities.  The Company expects this corporate structure will allow it to consolidate the financial activity of this joint venture.  Once formed and licensed to do business in China, YYNT will transfer ownership of certain fiber optic cable to the newly formed joint venture.  Sino Crossings will sell to third party telecommunication providers the right to utilize the fiber it manages and maintains in order for these third party telecommunication providers to connect and transport data to their subscribers for a fee to be charged by Sino Crossings.  The Company expects to utilize the fiber for the same purposes for its China based projects, but at a discount compared to amounts charged to third party telecommunication providers.  In exchange for their respective interests in the Sino Crossings Agreements, Azur paid $2 million to an affiliate of YYNT, and the Company issued Azur 9,000,000 Shares.

 

38
 

 

On December 2, 2011, we entered into an Addendum to the Sino Crossings Agreements (“Sino Crossings Addendum”) with Azur.  Under the Sino Crossings Addendum, we issued Azur 15,000,000 Shares.  Azur is required to secure an opinion letter from its attorneys regarding the irrevocable right of YYNT to use and commercialize (subject to affiliation with a relevant license holder) the backbone fiber and the legality and irrevocable nature of the contract between Shanghai Enbishi Enterprise Management Consulting Firm, a PRC limited liability company, that assigned its irrevocable right to use the backbone fiber to YYNT, in addition to allowing those rights to be unreservedly assigned to the new joint venture contemplated by the Sino Crossings Agreement.  Azur is also required to assist the Company and ZTE in complying with the financing requirements for the equipment contract related to the Sino Crossings Network.  Azur is required to complete the formation and registration of WFOE, with the assistance of the Company’s counsel, but was required to allow the Company to open all bank accounts for new entities in the joint venture on behalf of the parties and subject to the joint signature requirements set forth in the Sino Crossings Agreements.  Azur is required to cooperate in the use of the YYNT Network by our customers/partners, Aerostrong and NGSN, including the potential need to adjust equity percentages of the parties pursuant to the Agreement between the Company and Azur and/or equity percentages of the parties and YYNT under the Sino Crossings Agreements to reflect the use needs and ability of Aerostrong and/or NGSN to commercialize the backbone fiber.

 

The GBNC Network

 

On December 13, 2010, the Company and Golden Bridge Network Communications Co., Ltd (“GBNC”) entered into a Subscription and Shareholder Agreement (“GBNC Agreement”).  Each party is contractually obligated to contribute certain resources in order to deploy and operate a WBA network in China.  In particular, GBNC has WBA licenses in the 3.5GHz and 5.8 GHz bandwidth for potentially nine cities within the Fujian Province in China (“GBNC Network”).  GBNC currently holds WBA licenses in Fuzhou and Xiamen.  The Company will have a 49% ownership in the entities comprising its joint venture with GBNC, with majority control of each entity’s board of directors.  We expect that this corporate structure will allow us to consolidate the financial activity of this joint venture.  We are required to finance all capital and operating expenditures needed to complete the GBNC Network, which includes the deployment of at least 77 base transceiver stations (“BTS”) plus core equipment in Fuzhou and Xiamen.  GBNC has the right to submit applications to obtain additional WBA licenses in at least seven additional cities and/or regions throughout China.  GBNC also holds licenses to act as an internet service provider (“ISP”) in 26 cities and regions in China, and the right to apply for ISP licenses in additional cities and regions nationwide.  On December 22, 2011, the Company issued 5,000,000 Shares valued at $1,010,000.  The value established is based on the closing share price of the Company’s Shares as of the date the GBNC Agreement was signed.

 

Acquisition of 75% Equity Interest in VN Tech

 

Shenzhen VN Technologies Co., Ltd., a PRC limited liability company (“VN Tech”), has expertise, relationships and contracts to become a leading international manufacturer, integrator, and applications developer and patent holder for hydrogen and fuel cell power supply systems (“Fuel Cell Systems”) utilized in WBA networks. On April 1, 2011, the Company, VN Tech, and VN Tech’s sole shareholder, Luo Honge (“Luo”), entered into a Subscription and Shareholder Agreement (“the VN Tech Original Agreement”).  Under the VN Tech Original Agreement, the parties were to form a series of entities including a Cayman Island parent company, a Hong Kong wholly owned subsidiary of the Cayman company and a PRC wholly owned subsidiary of the Hong Kong company that also qualified as a wholly owned foreign enterprise (“WFOE”) under PRC law.  The Company would subscribe to 51% and VN Tech PRC to 49% of the equity interest of the entities comprising the joint venture.  VN Tech would assign to WFOE its tangible and intangible assets associated with Fuel Cell Systems, for which the Company would pay VN Tech 5 million of its shares of Series A Common Stock.

 

The parties subsequently formed the Hong Kong company contemplated under the VN Tech Original Agreement, VN Tech Investment, Ltd. (HK) (“VN Tech HK”).  The parties are in the process of forming the Cayman Island company under the name VN Tech Investment, Ltd., a Cayman Island corporation (“VN Tech Cayman”).

 

On April 22, 2012, Gulfstream Seychelles and the Company entered into an Amended and Restated Subscription and Stockholder Agreement (“the VN Tech A&R Agreement”) with VN Tech and Luo.  Under the VN Tech A&R Agreement, the parties deemed it no longer necessary to form a WFOE in connection with this transaction.  Instead, VN Tech will become the wholly owned subsidiary of VN Tech HK, which in turn will become a wholly owned subsidiary of VN Tech Cayman.  Under the VN Tech A&R Agreement, the Company’s equity interest in the entities comprising the joint venture is increased from 51% to 75% and Luo is subscribing to the remaining 25% in the entities directly, instead of through VN Tech.  Also under the VN Tech A&R Agreement, the consideration the Company is paying Luo (instead of VN Tech) is increased from five million to ten million shares of the Company’s Series A Common Stock.  The terms of the VN Tech A&R Agreement are otherwise similar, but not identical to, the VN Tech Original Agreement, which the VN Tech A&R Agreement supersedes entirely.  

 

39
 

 

The material terms of the VN Tech A&R Agreement are as follows:

 

1.               The Company will subscribe to 75% and Luo to 25% of the stock of VN Tech HK.  Upon completion of the formation of VN Tech Cayman, the parties will assign their respective equity interests in VN Tech HK to VN Tech Cayman in exchange for the same percentage of equity interest in VN Tech Cayman, such that VN Tech Cayman will become the holding company for VN Tech HK and VN Tech.  In consideration for their respective interests in the business model, Luo will assign to VN Tech HK all of his stock or other equity membership interest in VN Tech and the Company will pay Luo ten million shares of its Series A Common Stock, which includes five million shares called for but not yet issued pursuant to the VN Tech Original Agreement.  The Company will control the boards of directors of each of VN Tech Cayman, VN Tech HK, and VN Tech through the right to appoint four of five directors in each company;

 

2.               The parties contemplate that VN Tech will hold distribution rights of Fuel Cell Systems for telecommunications customers and markets within China, and VN Tech HK will hold all other worldwide distribution rights of Fuel Cell Systems. VN Tech HK will also provide marketing, sales and other service to VN Tech pursuant to a management services agreement, in exchange for compensation and upon other terms to be agreed by the parties;

 

3.               The Company is entitled to a 10% price discount on Fuel Cell Systems it purchases compared to the lowest price charged to any other telecommunications network carrier.  The Company’s discount will apply to usage by any telecommunications network carrier in which the Company has at least a 25% direct or indirect ownership interest;

 

4.               In the event the free cash flow and/or net operating income generated from the operations of VN Tech PRC and/or VN Tech HK exceeds the amount required for: (i) working capital requirements; (ii) payment of tax or provision therefore; (iii) outstanding loan obligations, and (iv) reserves for contingent future liabilities, any surplus profits shall (to the extent allowed by applicable law) be distributed to the shareholders of VN Tech Cayman in full by way of dividends; and

 

5.               The VN Tech A&R Agreement became effective on April 22, 2012, when it was signed by all parties (“VN Tech Effective Date”).  The VN Tech Effective Date also constitutes the “Closing” as that term is commonly understood in transactions of this nature.  All transfers of stock and other formalities described in the Amended VN Tech Agreement are considered contractual obligations subsequent and not conditions precedent to the rights and obligations of the parties contemplated in the VN Tech Amended Agreement.  On April 22, the Company issued 10,000,000 shares of its Series A Common Stock to Luo.

 

Agreements with NGSN

 

On October 21, 2011, the Company entered into a Business Agreement (“NGSN Business Agreement”) with New Generation Special Network Communication Technology Co., Ltd. (“NGSN”) in China.  NGSN was founded from a group of other technology companies to support other PRC owned companies and central government agencies in advancing private network telecommunications technologies.  NGSN holds a PRC-issued value added services license to provide location based tracking services and other information services throughout.  NGSN’s current activities include projects related to transportation, including GPS tracking technologies, remotely delivered education services and agriculture technologies.

 

Under the NGSN Business Agreement, the Company will form a PRC operating company to be jointly owned with NGSN, but subject to the Company’s control.  The operating company will enter into an exclusive services contract with NGSN to deliver the information services and also deploy and operate a 4G WBA network that will employ TD-LTE technology.  The Company will finance the first phase of the joint venture’s deployment, and the joint venture will own the infrastructure equipment.  The operating company will initially provide its services to consumers, wireless carriers, enterprises, automobile manufacturers and original equipment manufacturers in two regions of China.

 

On February 1, 2012, the Company and NGSN entered into the Exclusive Technical Services Agreement contemplated by the NGSN Business Agreement.  We have completed the formation of the holding company entities contemplated by the NGSN Business Agreement, specifically NGSN Communications Network Co., Ltd. a Cayman Islands corporation (“NGSN Cayman”) and NGSN Communications Network (HK) Co., Ltd., a Hong Kong corporation (“NGSN HK”).  Pending formation of the wholly foreign owned enterprise (“WFOE”) that will be an operating subsidiary of NSGN HK, as contemplated under the NGSN Business Agreement, we may begin providing services to NGSN through our existing WFOE, Beijing Yunji Communications Technology Co., Ltd. (“Beijing Yunji”).

On November 11, 2011, the Company entered into a Business Agreement (“Aerostrong Business Agreement”) with Aerostrong Company Limited (“Aerostrong”), a PRC limited liability company, to provide telecommunications services to Aerostrong and its affiliates and customers.  Aerostrong is a subsidiary of China Aerospace Science and Technology Group (“China Aerospace”), a state-owned company in the PRC.  China Aerospace is the main contractor for the PRC’s space program.  Aerostrong holds value added services licenses to provide telecommunication services via satellite nationwide and internet access services in 18 major cities in China.  Aerostrong qualifies to obtain and has applied for radio frequency spectrum licenses to provide WBA services, special network access, cloud computing, application services, content services and integrated solutions.  Part of the corporate mission of Aerostrong is to deploy an internal WBA network and application platform for all of the operating companies that fall under the China Aerospace umbrella, as well as their customers, suppliers and employees.  The China Aerospace WBA network will include an electronic platform for human resources administration, financial management and various application services.

 

On April 19, 2012, Beijing Yunji and Aerostrong entered into a Strategic Business Agreement (“Aerostrong Strategic Agreement”), which is the Exclusive Services Agreement Contemplated in the Aerostrong Business Agreement.  The Aerostrong Strategic Agreement identifies three initial projects on which the parties will cooperate: (i) Digital Lijiang management platform project in Guangxi Autonomous Region; (ii) Shen Hua WBA special network project for railway; and (iii) overload WBA surveillance projects in Shanxi Province. For each specific Cooperation Project, the parties will jointly formulate the budget and implementation plan, and sign a Project Agreement.  Beijing Yunji will provide the following services for each Cooperation Project: (i) project technical solution design; (ii) project site selection and construction; (iii) project financing; (iv) equipment (including software) procurement, installation, operation and maintenance; (v) bandwidth rent; (vi) system security and optimization; (vii) project management and operation management; (viii) warranty service; and (ix) other services needed for the development and implementation of each Cooperation Project. Aerostrong is not permitted to delegate or subcontract any part of a Cooperation Project, without the prior written consent of Beijing Yunji.  If the implementation of any part of a Cooperation Project requires special qualification or expertise, Beijing Yunji may subcontract to a qualified third party and will grant Aerostrong priority as subcontractor where Aerostrong has the qualifications and expertise to conduct such work.

 

Novi-Net and Montenegro Connect Networks

 

On December 6, 2011, the Company entered into a Business Cooperation Agreement with 7L Capital Partners Emerging Europe LP (“7L”) and other shareholders of Herlong Investments, Ltd., a Cyprus corporation (“Herlong”) to acquire a 75% equity interest in Herlong and its operating subsidiaries, Novi-Net, d.o.o., a Croatia corporation (“Novi-Net”) in Croatia and Montenegro Connect, d.o.o., a Montenegro corporation (“Montenegro Connect”) in Montenegro.  The Republic of Croatia granted Novi-Net a nationwide license to provide WBA and related services.  The license grants the use of 42 MHz of radio frequency spectrum in the 3.5 GHz bandwidth to serve Croatia’s 4.5 million citizens.  Since 2006, Novi-Net has been providing WBA services in five counties in northern Croatia under a regional license.  Novi-Net currently owns a data center, a network core and 11 BTS to provide WBA and related services to approximately 1,500 subscribers.  Montenegro Connect holds a nationwide license in Montenegro, covering 40 MHz in the 3.5 GHz bandwidth.  Montenegro Connect is a “greenfield” operation with two BTS installed for testing purposes and no commercial operations or subscriber base.  In exchange for its 75% equity stake in Herlong, the Company will contribute all capital and operating expenditures necessary to deploy and operate the Novi-Net Network and the Montenegro Network until each of Novi-Net and Montenegro Connect attain a positive cash flow.  On April 2, 2012, the Company closed its acquisition of 75% of Herlong by paying a €500,000 (actual amount paid was $668,402 USD) down payment towards the total budgeted capital and operating expenses, plus credit for a €528,086 (approximately $649,546 USD based on the same exchange rate) deposit on an initial equipment order placed with ZTE.  Herlong issued the Company 48,843 shares of its common stock, which represents 75% of the total shares issued and outstanding.

 

VeratNet Network

 

On December 19, 2011, the Company entered into the Standby Business Cooperation Agreement (“Standby BCA”) with 7L and other shareholders of Kerseyco Trading Limited, a Cyprus corporation (“Kerseyco”) to acquire a controlling interest in Kerseyco and its Serbian operating subsidiary, VeratNet, d.o.o. (“VeratNet”), a Serbia corporation. However, on August 16, 2012, the parties to the Standby BCA entered into an agreement terminating all rights and obligations under the Standby BCA due to frustration of purpose. The termination is discussed further in PART II of this Report under Item 5. Other Information.  VeratNet is one of the leading telecommunications operators and internet service providers in Serbia, offering a full range of telecommunication services, including ADSL broadband service nationwide and WBA services in three cities where it holds radio frequency licenses, including Belgrade that is Serbia’s capital and largest city.  VeratNet also offers specialty services to business customers, such as international private leased circuit services, dedicated wireless internet lines and dedicated web server hosting.  VeratNet currently owns a data center, a network core and 11 BTS.  VeratNet has more than 50 employees who serve more than 18,000 subscribers.  In exchange for its equity stake, the Company was to contribute capital expenditures and operating expenditures necessary to continue VeratNet’s existing operations and to upgrade VeratNet’s existing WBA infrastructure equipment with higher capacity equipment, which would have allowed VeratNet to add new wireless customers.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

Since April 8, 2008, we have utilized approximately $63.6 million for research and development, sales, general and administrative expenses, our investment in Chinacomm Cayman Limited, including extension fees paid to TCP advances on a failed investment, commissions paid on our Convertible Note Purchase Agreements dated February 12, 2008 (“Convertible Note”) and our Amended and Restated Convertible Note Purchase Agreements dated November 17, 2011 (“Amended Convertible Note”) and deposit for property, plant and equipment.

 

Net cash provided by financing activities consist of net cash proceeds from the issuance of convertible and other notes, common stock subscription and advances from shareholders.  Our Convertible Notes matured on December 31, 2008, unless they were extended by signing an Amended Convertible Note.  In that case, the due date is 90 days from the date we receive a notice of redemption from the convertible note holder. Both the Convertible Notes and the Amended Convertible Notes have an interest rate of 10% per annum.

 

Our liquidity needs consist of our working capital requirements, indebtedness payments, research and development expenditure funding, and general and administrative expenses.  Our known liquidity demands include the following categories and amounts as of June 30, 2012: (i) litigation installment payments of $829,893 (this amount can also be paid with shares of our Shares at our option); (ii) notes payable to related parties of $1,131,238; (iii) notes payable of $11,286,551; (iv) Convertible Notes and Amended Convertible Notes of $298,923; (v) advances from officers of $133,599; (vi) accounts payable and accrued expenses of $6,001,252; and sales, general and administrative expenses of approximately $2.1 million per month for San Diego, Taiwan, Peru, Denmark, Cyprus, Croatia and Montenegro operations (additional future SG&A for joint venture projects in China and elsewhere throughout the world cannot currently be estimated, as those projects have not commenced active operations).

 

Historically, we have financed our operations through the sale of equity and convertible debt, as well as borrowings from related parties and Isaac Organization, Inc. (“Isaac”).

 

Since our inception until June 30, 2012, we have incurred accumulated losses of approximately $259 million.  As of June 30, 2012, we had cash of $451,711 and liabilities of approximately $20 million, of which $17.7 million are deemed to be current liabilities.  We expect to continue to incur net losses for the foreseeable future.  Our independent accountants have expressed substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern in their audit report, dated April 16, 2012, for the period ended December 31, 2011.  In order to continue to operate our business, we will need to raise substantial amounts of additional capital.

 

Our equity capital consists of Series A Common Stock, Series B Common Stock, preferred stock, Convertible Notes and Amended Convertible Notes, each of which is discussed in further detail below.

 

Effective March 28, 2012, we increased our authorized Shares from 1 billion to 2 billion by filing a Certificate of Amendment of our Articles of Incorporation with the Nevada Secretary of State  As of June 30, 2012, we had issued and outstanding 10,527,016 Shares (this amount and others discussed in this Item 2., except as indicated, are prior to the effect of the 1-for-100 reverse stock split of our Series A and Series B Common Stock that was completed on July 18, 2012). The total number of Shares issued and outstanding as of the filing date of this Report is 12,267,160 (post-reverse split).

 

We are relying, in part, on cash generated from future Share sales to Isaac and the Line of Credit Loan Agreement and Promissory Note dated July 1, 2001 with Isaac (“First Note”) and the Extension Agreement and Second Line of Credit Promissory Note with Isaac dated February 23, 2012 (“Second Note”) in order to fund our operations, including capital commitments to joint venture partners, sales, general and administrative expenses, litigation settlements, and retirement of other debts and payables.  We have no reason to believe Isaac will not continue to fund the Second Note.

 

As of June 30, 2012, we had authorized the issuance of up to 200,000,000 shares of Series B Common Stock, of which 133,818,177 were issued and outstanding.  Each share of our Series B Common Stock has the right to cast ten votes for each action on which our shareholders have a right to vote.  The consent of 80% of the issued and outstanding shares of our Series B Common Stock shareholders is required in order to sell, assign or transfer any of the shares of our Series B Common Stock.  The Series B Common Stock is not participating with any declared dividends. The Series B Common Stock is redeemable on May 23, 2023 at par value of $0.001 per share.  George Alvarez, our Chief Executive Officer, holds a proxy for 66,909,089 shares of our Series B Common Stock.  Colin Tay, our President, owns 66,909,088 shares of our Series B Common.  Due to the limitations on transfer of our Series B Common Stock, we do not consider the issuance of Series B Common Stock to be a viable source for funding our operations.

 

45
 

 

In addition, we have authorized the issuance of up to 25,000,000 shares of preferred stock, with rights and preferences to be determined by the Company’s Board of Directors.  We have not issued any preferred stock.

 

As of June 30, 2012, we have raised approximately $28.5 million related to our Convertible Notes and our Amended Convertible Notes.  These notes bear interest at 10% per annum and are all either past due or have been converted.  As of June 30, 2012, the outstanding balance of principal and interest on unpaid Convertible Notes and Amended Convertible Notes was approximately $0.3 million.  The proceeds from our Convertible Notes and Amended Convertible Notes helped fund our operations during 2008 and 2009.  However, interest accruing and settlement of litigation associated with our Convertible Notes contributed to our liquidity needs for the period ended June 30, 2012 and is expected to continue to do so in the future.  We have no present plans to issue further convertible notes as a means of funding our operations.  However, we are exploring other alternatives to raising the needed capital to fund our ongoing projects and those we have entered into as of the date of this Report.

 

As of June 30, 2012, we owed approximately $1.1 million as a result of borrowings from related parties.  We have sometimes relied on borrowings from related parties as a means of financing our operations, but only when other capital resources were not readily available.  We have no present plans to rely on further borrowings from related parties as a means of financing our operations.

 

During 2010, we negotiated equipment vendor financing which, if continued in the future, we expect will reduce our short term need for capital from the sources described above as a percentage of our total capital needs.  However, no assurances can be given that we will continue to obtain equipment financing on the same terms as secured during 2010.  Repayment of such equipment financing will increase our liquidity demands in the future.

 

The following table presents a summary of our sources and uses of cash for the six-month period ended June 30, 2012 and 2011:

 

   Six-Month   Six-Month 
   Period Ending   Period Ending

Item 4.  Controls and Procedures.

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

We have adopted and maintain disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) under the Exchange Act) that are designed to insure that information required to be disclosed in our reports under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods required under the Rules and Forms of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and that the information is gathered and communicated to our senior management team, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

 

Our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(e)) as of the end of the period covered by this Report.  They concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective with respect to financial reporting of complex transactions as of June 30, 2012.

 

Our Chief Financial Officer, and others in the Company, as appropriate, will be undertaking efforts to insure that the Company’s controls and procedures meet all legal requirements.  It is anticipated that such efforts will be concluded by the time our Form 10-K for the period ended December 31, 2012 is filed with the SEC.

 

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

 

During the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2012, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that have affected materially, or are reasonably likely to affect materially, our internal control over financial reporting.

 

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

 

Item 1.  Legal Proceedings.

 

There have been no material developments in any of the pending litigation against the Company since we filed our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011, with the exception of the Azur Notice of Arbitration described below and a report on what we refer to as “the Chinacomm Litigation.”

 

On July 13, 2012, Azur served a Notice of Arbitration against the Company.  The claim was filed with the Hong Kong International Arbitration Centre (“HKIAC”) and was brought pursuant to Article 3 of the United Nations Commission on International Trade Law Arbitration Rules (“UNCITRAL Arbitration Rules,”) for breach of the Sino Crossings Agreements.  The claim alleges that Azur suffered damages and losses due to breaches by the Company in implementing the terms of the Sino Crossings Agreements.  In the claim, Azur demanded acknowledgment of termination and a declaration of rescission of the Sino Crossings Agreements.  Further, it demanded indemnification by the Company in the amount of $2,000,000 for lost opportunities.  On August 11, 2012, the Company responded to the allegations of Azur, asserted counterclaims against Azur, and named additional parties the Company requested by joined into the arbitration proceeding.  The parties are awaiting appointment of an arbitrator for the proceedings.

 

The Chinacomm Litigation

 

During May and June 2010, we paid $2.75 million into a Hong Kong bank account of Chinacomm Cayman, over which the Company had joint control with Chinacomm. These funds were intended for use towards capitalizing Yunji Communications Technology (China) Co. Ltd. (“Yunji China”). However, Chinacomm demanded that the Company make changes to the Gulfstream Subscription Agreement and to the TCP Subscription Agreement that would give Chinacomm complete control of all bank accounts, revenues, capital expenses, operating expenses and the corporate seal (also known under Chinese business practices as the “chop”) of Yunji China. The Company rejected Chinacomm’s demands and refused to authorize the release of the funds held in Chinacomm Cayman’s bank account to Yunji China. The Company attempted to negotiate with Chinacomm to resolve the impasse, in order to continue its investment in Chinacomm Cayman for the continued deployment and operation of the Chinacomm Network.

 

Meanwhile, Chinacomm unilaterally decided to deploy the Chinacomm Network independent of what the Company had designed for each of the first 12 cities of the Chinacomm Network and without the Company’s approval. Chinacomm decided to deploy fully the Chinacomm Network in Beijing and Shanghai. The Company was unaware of any other activity by Chinacomm to deploy any of the remaining ten cities included Phase 1 of the deployment plan the Company designed and paid for in connection with the Chinacomm Network.

 

There were extensive negotiations over the course of the next year between representatives of the Company and Chinacomm, including face-to-face negotiations in Beijing on several occasions. During the fourth quarter of 2011, the Company retained the Hong Kong law firm of Lawrence K.Y.Lo & Co. to investigate Chinacomm and its affiliated company, CECT Chinacomm Shanghai Co. Ltd.

On November 18, 2011, the Company, along with Trussnet Capital Partners (HK) Ltd. (“the Plaintiffs”), commenced litigation against Chinacomm Limited, Thrive Century International Limited, Newtop Holdings Limited, Smart Channel Development Limited, Mong Sin, Qiu Ping, Yuan Yi, Chinacomm and CECT Chinacomm Shanghai Co. Ltd. (“the Defendants”) in The High Court of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region, Court of First Instance, Action No. 1978 of 2011 (“the Chinacomm Litigation”).

 

The Chinacomm Litigation arises out of the breach of numerous agreements between the Plaintiffs and some of the Defendants, including, but not limited to, the Framework Agreements and Subscription and Shareholders’ Agreements, related to the joint venture between the parties to those agreements for the deployment of the Chinacomm Network. In addition, the Chinacomm Litigation arises out of the deceitful representations by certain of the Defendants in connection with the issuance of licenses by applicable regulatory agencies in the PRC for the operation of the Chinacomm Network. Finally, the Litigation involves the unauthorized removal of Colin Tay as an authorized signatory to a joint bank account Chinacomm Cayman has with Standard Chartered Bank (HK) Limited “(Standard Chartered”), one of three Standard Chartered bank accounts in the name of Chinacomm Cayman (“the Standard Chartered Accounts”) and into which the Plaintiffs deposited $4,749,599.00. The Chinacomm Litigation seeks injunctive relief, compensatory damages, including, but not limited to: (i) loss of profits; (ii) restitution; (iii) reinstatement of any funds taken from the Standard Chartered Accounts; (iv) an accounting of any funds taken from the Standard Chartered Accounts; (v) damages for the amounts the Company spent on: (a) a Request for Proposal; (b) the development of a WBA Deployment Guide Book which includes the specifications for the design and market for each of the 12 cities comprising Phase 1 of the Chinacomm Network, equipment testing and procurement, deployment, office planning and staffing; (c) site acquisition to be utilized in connection with the 12 Phase 1 cities; (d) radio frequency engineering; (e) the architectural and engineering work for each of the 12 Phase 1 cities; and (v) court costs, and further and other relief as the Court may deem appropriate.

 

On November 18, 2011, the High Court issued an ex parte order granting the Plaintiffs’ application for injunctive relief, ordering that Chinacomm Limited, Thrive Century International Limited, Newtop Holdings Limited, Qiu Ping and Yuan Yi be restrained until further order of the High Court from: (i) dealing in the Standard Chartered Accounts; (ii) incurring any liability, creating charges, mortgages, encumbrances or liens to the detriment of Chinacomm Cayman; (iii) transferring or changing the existing shareholdings or proceeding with deregistration or dissolution of Chinacomm Cayman; and (iv) disposing of any fixed or current assets of Chinacomm Cayman. In addition, the High Court ordered Qiu Ping, the President of Chinacomm and CECT Chinacomm Shanghai Co. Ltd., and Yuan Yi, the Chairman of the board of directors of these two companies, from disposing of or otherwise dealing with these companies’ assets locally or worldwide for purposes of the orders in the amount of $4,749,599. In addition, the High Court ordered Chinacomm, Qiu Ping and Yuan Yi to disclose all relevant information related to the Standard Chartered Accounts within seven days of the aforementioned orders (collectively, the orders referred to herein as “the Injunction Order”). The Injunction Order was to remain in effect until November 25, 2011. On November 25, 2011, the Injunction Order was continued by the High Court until further order of the High Court.

 

On February 17, 2012, the Plaintiffs filed their complete Statement of Claim seeking the relief identified above.

 

On May 23, 2012, the Defendants filed their Defense to the Statement of Claim and filed a Counter-Claim against the Plaintiffs. That Counter-Claim alleges breaches of the agreements between the parties and seeks damages and other relief as a result thereof.

 

On August 1, 2012, the Plaintiffs filed their Reply to the Defenses and Defenses to the Counter-Claims against the Plaintiffs.

 

On April 11, 2012, the High Court rejected the first Defendants’ application for withdrawing a sum HK$100,000 from the Standard Chartered Accounts for their legal costs and continued the Injunction Order in effect pending further order of the High Court.

 

On or about June 22, 2012, the Plaintiffs discovered that a sum of $4.5 million of the deposited funds in the Standard Chartered Accounts had been transferred by Qiu Ping of Chinacomm Cayman into a personal bank account with the DBS Bank (HK) Limited of another board member of Chinacomm, Feng Xiao Ming. The Plaintiffs joined Feng Xiao Ming as the tenth Defendant in the High Court Action and further obtained worldwide injunction against him up to the limit of $4.5 million. Meanwhile the Plaintiffs are pressing for disclosure of information from some of the Defendants concerning the movement of the unauthorized transfer the funds in order to trace back the money dissipated. The Plaintiffs believe that by further disclosure proceedings and tracing actions, the identities of the recipients can be uncovered and further Injunction Order will be applied for.

 

On July 19, 2012, there was a hearing to determine whether the Injunction Order should remain in place pending the outcome of the litigation. Following oral arguments from both sides in the High Court, judgment was reserved. In the meantime, the two Injunctions Orders are continued until further order.

Item 1A.  Risk Factors.

 

In addition to the other information set forth in this Report, you should carefully consider the factors discussed in Part I, Item 1A., “Risk Factors” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011, which could materially affect the Company’s business, financial position and results of operations.  There are no material changes from the risk factors set forth in Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors,” of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the period ended December 31, 2011.

 

Item 2.  Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds.

 

With the exception of the following sale of unregistered securities, all information required by Item 701 of Regulation S-K has been included in either a current Report on Form 8-K during the period covered by this Report or in our Report on form 10-Q for the period ended March 31, 2012 and filed with the SEC on May 21, 2012:

 

On August 17, 2012, the Company issued 531,085 (post-reverse) Shares and 531,085 (post-reverse) warrants to America Orient, LLC in partial payment of a promissory note in the amount of $500,000 due May 31, 2012 in favor of Isaac Organization, Inc. and assigned to America Orient, LLC. Each warrant has an exercise price of $0.0845 and an exercise term of three years.  This sale of Shares resulted in a reduction of $20,904 in notes payable of the Company.

 

The restricted Shares issued to the aforementioned person relied upon exemptions provided for in Sections 4(2) and 4(5) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, including Regulation D promulgated thereunder based on the aforementioned knowledge of the Company’s operations and financial condition and experience in financial and business matters that allowed him to evaluate the merits and risk of receipt of these Shares.

 

Item 3. Defaults Upon Senior Securities.

 

As of June 30, 2012, the Company is in default on payment of the principal and interest on approximately $429,448of our Convertible Notes and Amended Convertible Notes.  We intend to cure the defaults and satisfy the convertible notes as soon as funds are available to the Company.

 

Item 4.  Removed and Reserved.

 

Item 5.  Other Information.

 

(a)               With the exception of the termination of the Kerseyco Standby BCA reported below, all information required to be disclosed on a report on Form 8-K during the period ended June 30, 2012 has been reported. In addition, the following information has been reported on Form 8-K in conjunction with our Definitive Information Statement on Form 14C filed with the SEC on August 1, 2012.

 

The Reverse Stock Split

 

On July 10, 2012, the Board confirmed and finalized the terms of a reverse stock split whereby the number of: (i) issued Series A Shares; (ii) authorized Series A Shares; (iii) issued Series B Shares; and (iv) authorized Series B shares would all be reduced by a ratio of 1-for-100 (“Reverse Stock Split”). The Board had previously approved the Reverse Stock Split by a Unanimous Written Consent of the Board effective March 20, 2012, subject to an approval process through the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”). FINRA approval having been obtained (subject only to filing a Certificate of Change with the Nevada Secretary of State) and shareholder approval not being required, the Board approved the filing of the Certificate of Change with the Nevada Secretary of State, which occurred on July 18, 2012. The Reverse Stock Split became effective upon confirmation of FINRA approval on July 23, 2012.

 

Increase in the Number of Authorized Shares of the Company’s Series A and B Common Stock

 

On July 10, 2012, the Board approved an increase in the number of authorized Series A Shares and Series B Shares that will be available for issuance following the Reverse Stock Split by a ratio of 50 for1, whereby the total number of authorized Series A Shares would be 1,000,000,000 and the total number of authorized Series B Shares would be 100,000,000 (“Increase in Authorized Shares”). In addition, the Board recommended that the shareholders of Common Stock as of the Record Date defined below approve by majority written consent the Board’s authorization to effectuate the Increase in Authorized Shares.

 

Definitive Information Statement to Increase the Amount of Authorized Series A and B Common Stock

 

On July 10, 2012 and pursuant to section 78.320 of the Nevada Revised Statutes (“NRS”), the Company received, by written consent in lieu of a regular or special meeting, the approval of shareholders holding 220,738,375 shares of Common Stock, representing 56.8% of the total possible votes outstanding, an amendment of the Company’s Articles of Incorporation to effectuate the Increase in Authorized Shares.

 

49
 

 

The Board fixed July 10, 2012, as the record date (“Record Date”) for determining the shareholders entitled to give their written consent to the Increase in Authorized Shares. The shareholders who held, as of the Record Date, a majority of the voting power of the Company’s Series A Common Stock and its Series B Common Stock executed a written consent resolution (“Majority Written Consent”) approving the Increase in Authorized Shares. Specifically, holders of 86,920,198 (pre-reverse) Series A Shares (with a power of one vote per share) and 133,818,177 (pre-reverse) Series B Shares (with a power of ten votes per share), equaling 56.8% of the total voting power of all of the Common Stock issued and outstanding as of the Record Date, cast votes in favor of the Increase in Authorized Shares. Inasmuch as the shareholders of our Common Stock holding 56.8% of the voting power of the Company’s outstanding Common Stock had already approved the Increase in Authorized Shares, the Company did not seek approval for the Increase in Authorized Shares from any of the Company’s other shareholders, nor will they be given an opportunity to vote on the proposal to effectuate the Increase in Authorized Shares. All necessary corporate approvals have been obtained, and the Definitive Information Statement was furnished to the Company’s shareholders solely for the purpose of providing advance notice to the Company’s shareholders of the Increase in Authorized Shares, as required by the Exchange Act.

 

Under Section 14(c) of the Exchange Act and Rule 14c-2 promulgated thereunder, a corporate action approved by Majority Written Consent cannot become effective until 20 days after the date a Definitive Information Statement is sent to the shareholders of the Company’s Common Stock. The Definitive Information Statement was scheduled to be mailed to the Company’s shareholders on or about August 1, 2012. Therefore, the Company estimates the effective date of the Increase in Authorized Shares to be on or about August 21, 2012, (“Effective Date”).

 

Termination of the Kerseyco Standby BCA

 

On August 16, 2012, the Company, Kerseyco, and the shareholders of Kerseyco entered into an agreement terminating the rights and obligations of all parties under the Standby BCA. On July 10, 2012, Serbia’s Republic Agency for Electronic Communications (“RATEL”) denied the application of Kerseyco’s operating subsidiary VeratNet to replace equipment on any of VeratNet’s eleven existing transmission sites. RATEL had previously denied VeratNet’s application to expand its network on fifteen additional transmission sites. Although RATEL justified its decisions on the basis that it is currently changing the law whereby VeratNet and other operators will be entitled to participate in a spectrum tender process by which VeratNet may be awarded a national WBA license in exchange for its existing regional WBA license, there has been no progress in this process during the time the Standby BCA has been in effect. The parties concluded that the essential purpose of the Standby BCA had been frustrated through no fault of any of the parties.

 

(b)               The Company does not have procedures in place by which security holders may recommend nominees to the Company’s Board of Directors.
