ITEM 1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
History
Capsalus Corp. (“Capsalus”), formerly Mach One Corporation, was organized as Underdog, Inc., under the laws of the State of Utah on March 19, 1982. The Company went through various name changes and business combinations to finally be named Capsalus on October 11, 2010.
On December 31, 2008, Capsalus acquired all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Pacific Rim in exchange for 28,000,000 shares of Capsalus common stock and an aggregate of $1,500,000 Five Year Zero Coupon Convertible Promissory Notes. Pacific Rim is now a wholly-owned subsidiary of Capsalus.
During the year ended December 31, 2009, Capsalus acquired certain assets of Modular Process Constructors, LLC (MPS), a transaction that closed February 19, 2009 and all of the issued and outstanding stock of Ceres Organic Harvest, Inc. (Ceres), a transaction that closed February 21, 2009.
On March 31, 2010, Ceres adopted a plan to close the business of its wholly-owned subsidiary, Organic Grain and Milling, Inc. (OGM). As of March 31, 2010, substantially all operational activities of OGM were discontinued. As a result, effective in its first quarter of fiscal 2010, the Company classified OGM as discontinued operations separate from the continuing operations of the Company for all the periods presented in the financial statements.
During the year ended December 31, 2010, Capsalus acquired all the issued and outstanding stock of White Hat Holdings, LLC, a transaction that closed April 14, 2010 for 170,142,530 shares of Capsalus common stock, valued at $0.07 per share, which was the market closing price on that date.
On July 1, 2010, the Company adopted a plan to close the business of Ceres Organic Harvest, Inc. (Ceres). As of July 1, 2010, substantially all operational activities of Ceres were discontinued. As a result, effective in the quarter ended September 30, 2010, the Company classified Ceres as discontinued operations separate from the continuing operations of the Company for all the periods presented in the financial statements.
On August 6, 2010, the Company entered into an agreement to sell the Animal Wellness group business. As a result, effective in the quarter ended September 30, 2010, the Company classified the Animal Wellness group as discontinued operations separate from the continuing operations of the Company for all the periods presented in the financial statements.
On October 20, 2010, the Company executed an irrevocable Subscription Agreement for the purchase of 200,000 Class B Preferred Units (the “Units”) of Wish Upon A Hero, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“WISH”), for an aggregate consideration of $400,000 . The Company was also granted an option to purchase an additional 100,000 Units for an aggregate consideration of $200,000. Upon completion of the purchase, the Company will own 22% of WISH or 30% if it exercises its option in full.
On January 26, 2011, the Company acquired all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Guava Senior Home & Healthcare Services, Inc., a Delaware corporation, and Guava Franchising, Inc. a Delaware corporation (collectively referred to herein as "Guava"), pursuant to a Stock Purchase Agreement by and between the Company and Mary S. Schreiber, PhD. ("Schreiber"), the sole owner of Guava (the "Purchase Agreement"). In accordance with the Purchase Agreement, the Company issued to Schreiber 7,000,000 shares of restricted common stock valued at $0.03 per share. Pursuant to the Agreement, the Company executed an Earn-Out Agreement with Schreiber, providing for Schreiber to acquire, over a period ending December 31, 2013, an additional 5,000,000 shares of common stock for each $5,000,000 of gross revenue achieved by Guava, up to an aggregate of an additional 20,000,000 shares of its common stock over such period of time.
2
In 2009 and 2010, the Company invested by subscription agreement $90,000 in return for 105,000 units of PanTheryx, Inc. located in Boulder, Colorado. The Company had an additional option to purchase another 105,000 units at the same price but declined to exercise the option prior to expiration.

Risks Related to Our Stock
Stocks traded on the OTCBB are subject to limitations in connection with the availability of quotes and order information.
Our shares currently trade on the Over the Counter Bulletin Board. Trades and quotations on the OTCBB involve a manual process and the market information for those securities cannot be guaranteed. In addition, quote information, or even firm quotes, may not be available. The manual execution process may delay order processing and intervening price fluctuations may result in the failure of a limit order to execute or the execution of a market order at a significantly different price. Execution of trades, execution reporting and the delivery of legal trade confirmation may be delayed significantly. Consequently, one may not be able to sell shares of our common stock at the optimum trading prices.
Stocks quoted on the OTCBB may be subject to delays in order communications.
Electronic processing of orders is not available for securities traded on the OTCBB and high order volume and communication risks may prevent or delay the execution of one’s trading orders. This lack of automated order processing may affect the timeliness of order execution reporting and the availability of firm quotes for shares of our common stock. Heavy market volume may lead to a delay in the processing of security orders for shares of our common stock, due to the manual nature of these markets. Consequently, you may not able to sell shares of our common stock at the optimum trading prices.
Penny stock regulations impose certain restrictions on marketability of our securities.
Our common stock is deemed to be “penny stock” as that term is defined in Rule 3a51-1 promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Subject to certain exceptions, penny stocks are stock:
●
|
With a price of less than $5.00 per share or an exercise price of less than $5.00 per share;
|
●
|
That are not traded on a “recognized” national exchange;
|
●
|
Whose prices are not quoted on the NASDAQ automated quotation system; or
|
●
|
In issuers with net tangible assets less than $2.0 million (if the issuer has been in continuous operation for at least three years) or $5.0 million (if in continuous operation for less than three years), or with average revenues of less than $6.0 million for the last three years.
|
5
As a result, our common stock is subject to rules that impose additional sales practice requirements on broker-dealers who sell such securities to persons other than established customers and accredited investors (generally those with assets in excess of $1,000,000 or annual income exceeding $200,000, or $300,000 together with their spouse). For transactions covered by such rules, the broker-dealer must make a special suitability determination for the purchase of such securities and have received the purchaser’s written consent to the transaction prior to the purchase. Additionally, for any transaction involving a penny stock, unless exempt, the rules require the delivery, prior to the transaction, of a risk disclosure document mandated by the SEC relating to the penny stock market. The broker dealer must also disclose the commission payable to both the broker dealer and the registered representative, current quotations for the securities and, if the broker dealer is the sole market maker, the broker dealer must disclose this fact and the broker dealer’s presumed control over the market. Finally, monthly statements must be sent disclosing recent price information for the penny stock held in the account and information on the limited market in penny stocks. In addition, the SEC currently intends to create additional obligations with respect to the transfer of penny stocks. Most importantly, the SEC proposes that broker-dealers must wait two business days after providing buyers with disclosure materials regarding a security before effecting a transaction in such security. Consequently, the “penny stock” rules may restrict the ability of broker dealers to sell our securities and may affect the ability of investors to sell our securities in the secondary market and the price at which such purchasers can sell any such securities, thereby affecting the liquidity of the market for our common stock.
Shareholders should be aware that, according to the SEC, the market for penny stocks has suffered in recent years from patterns of fraud and abuse. Those patterns include:
●
|
control of the market for the security by one or more broker-dealers that are often related to the promoter or issuer;
|
●
|
manipulation of prices through prearranged matching of purchases and sales and false and misleading press releases;
|
●
|
“boiler room” practices involving high pressure sales tactics and unrealistic price projections by inexperienced sales persons;
|
●
|
excessive and undisclosed bid-ask differentials and markups by selling broker-dealers; and
|
●
|
the wholesale dumping of the same securities by promoters and broker-dealers after prices have been manipulated to a desired level, along with the inevitable collapse of those prices with consequent investor losses.
|
Risk of market fraud.
Shares traded on OTCBB securities are frequent targets of fraud or market manipulation. Not only because of their generally low price, but also because the reporting requirements for these securities are less stringent than for listed or NASDAQ traded securities, and no exchange requirements are imposed. Dealers may dominate the market and set prices that are not based on competitive forces. Individuals or groups may create fraudulent markets and control the sudden, sharp increase of price and trading volume and the equally sudden collapse of the market price for shares of our common stock.
Limited liquidity on the OTCBB.
When fewer shares of a security are being traded on the OTCBB, volatility of prices may increase and price movement may outpace the ability to deliver accurate quote information. Due to lower trading volumes in shares of our common stock, there may be a lower likelihood of one's orders for shares of our common stock being executed, and current prices may differ significantly from the price one was quoted at the time of one's order entry. Our shares average daily trading volume for the last two months is 344,512 per trading day.
6
Limitation in connection with the editing and canceling of orders on the OTCBB.
Orders for OTCBB securities may be canceled or edited like orders for other securities. Due to the manual order processing involved in handling OTCBB trades, order processing and reporting may be delayed, and one may not be able to cancel or edit one's order. Consequently, one may not be able to sell shares of our common stock at the optimum trading prices.
Demand for shares of our common stock may be decreased or eliminated.
The dealer’s spread (the difference between the bid and ask prices) may be large and may result in substantial losses to the seller of shares of our common stock on the OTCBB if the stock must be sold immediately. Further, purchasers of shares of our common stock may incur an immediate “paper” loss due to the price spread. Moreover, dealers trading in these markets may not have a bid price for shares of our common stock. Due to the foregoing, demand for shares of our common stock may be decreased or eliminated.
Our common stock has experienced a high degree of volatility in price and volume and may experience the same in the future.
The market price for our common stock in the past two years has experienced a high degree of volatility both in price and volume. The stock has a two year low of $0.02 which occurred on December 23, 2010 and a two year high of $0.20 occurring on May 7, 2009. Because of this, you may experience the same volatility in the future. You may or may not experience similar volatility in the future.
You may experience dilution in your ownership of shares of our common stock.
We have financed our operations, in large part, by issuing promissory notes convertible into our common stock. The prices at which the principal and interest of the convertible promissory notes are convertible into shares of common stock may be less than the then-current bid price of our common stock. Sales of shares of our common stock at prices less than prevailing bid prices has had a dilutive effect on the owners of our common stock immediately prior to such sales or conversions. We have also issued a substantial number of shares of our common stock as payment to service providers for marketing and consulting services. To the extent we continue to issue shares of our common stock at prices less than the then-current bid prices or in connection with marketing and consulting services, existing owners of common stock will continue to suffer dilution of their share ownership. For the foreseeable future, we do not anticipate being able to issue shares of our common stock at prices equal, or substantially equal to, their bid prices at the time of such sales. Furthermore, sales of shares at prices less than the prevailing bid price of our common stock can be expected to result in downward pressure on our stock price.
During fiscal 2010, we executed $1,704,000 of promissory notes with 15 individuals. These notes carry an interest rate of 10-12% and are due 12-24 months from date of execution. The notes have a provision for conversion into equity of the company. If all notes are converted at the end of the term, an additional 51,641,667 shares will be issued.
We have never paid dividends on our common stock, and we do not anticipate paying dividends for the foreseeable future; therefore, returns on your investment may only be seen by the appreciation of the value in our securities. Investors should not rely on an investment in our stock for the payment of cash dividends.
We have not paid any cash dividends on our capital stock and we do not anticipate paying cash dividends in the future. Investors should not make an investment in our common stock if they require dividend income. Any return on an investment in our common stock will be as a result of any appreciation, if any, in our stock price. We intend to retain earnings, if any, for use in the operation of our business and to fund future growth. Because of this, investors may only see a return on their investment if the value of the shares owned appreciates.
7
We have the ability, without shareholder approval, to issue preferred stock and designate the rights, preferences and privileges that may be senior to common stock.
We have a total of 10,500,000 authorized shares of preferred stock. The Board of Directors may determine, without shareholder approval, the rights, preferences and privileges of the preferred stock. Depending on the rights, preferences and privileges granted when the preferred stock is issued, it may have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a change in control without further action by the shareholders, may discourage bids for our common stock at a premium over the market price of the common stock and may adversely affect the market price of and the voting and other rights of the holders of our common stock.
We can issue common stock without shareholder approval that may cause dilution to existing shareholders.
In January 2010, the Company increased the number of authorized shares to 510,500,000, which includes 500 million shares of common stock, 1 million shares of Series A preferred stock, 500,000 shares of Series B preferred stock, 8 million shares of Series C preferred stock and 1 million shares of other preferred stock
that can be issued by the Board of Directors. Under most circumstances, the Board of Directors has the right to issue these shares. If all of these shares were issued, it would substantially dilute the existing shareholders.
An investment in our securities is highly speculative and subject to numerous and substantial risks. Readers are encouraged to review these risks carefully before making any investment decision.
ITEM 1B. UNRESOLVED STAFF COMMENTS
On December 8, 2010, the Company received a comment letter from the staff of the Division of Corporation Finance of the SEC. The comments from the staff were issued with respect to its review of the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009, as amended May 24, 2010 and the Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended September 30, 2010. In addition to other comments, the staff’s letter included comments relating to the Company’s accounting for the valuation of the acquisition of WhiteHat Holdings, LLC, on April 14, 2010. The substance of the staff’s comments is summarized below:
In its comment letter, the staff requested that the Company provide quantitative and qualitative analyses supporting our use of $0.007 per share as a fair value, which was significantly lower than the closing price of $0.07 per share on April 14, 2010.
The Company responded to all of the staff’s comments in a letter it filed with the SEC dated April 4, 2010. in addition, the Company filed a FORM 8-K under tem 4.02 - Non-Reliance on Previously Issued Financial Statements or a Related Audit Report or Completed Interim Review. Additionally, the Company intends to filed amended quarterly reports for the quarters ended June 30, 2010 and September 30, 2010.
As of the date of the filing of this Form 10-K, the staff continues to review the Company’s responses and, therefore, these comments remain unresolved.
ITEM 2. PROPERTIES
Our principal executive office is located at 2675 Paces Ferry Road in Atlanta, Georgia 30339. The lease payment is $5,000 per month and expires in July 2011.
ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
The Company periodically is subject to claims and lawsuits that arise in the ordinary course of business. It is the opinion of management that the disposition or ultimate resolution of such claims and lawsuits will not have a material adverse effect on the financial position of the Company.
ITEM 4. SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS
We filed a preliminary and definitive information statement to change the name of the company from Mach One Corporation to Capsalus Corp. and put it to a vote of our security holders during the quarter ended September 30, 2010. A majority of shareholders voted to approve the name change.

General Overview
Overview
Discontinued Operations
In 2006, Capsalus acquired VDx, a biotech company that specialized in immune/gamma globulin solutions (Iggs) for the equine and bovine markets. This organization operated as the Animal Wellness Group (AWG) and was focused on creating targeted products that deliver positive impact on animal wellness. On August 6, 2010, the Company entered into an agreement to sell substantially all of the assets, including equipment, license rights, certain receivables and intellectual property, of its former Animal Wellness Group to Hi-TIgG, Inc., a company owned by the Company’s former CEO (Purchaser). In return, the Purchaser assumed certain liabilities of the Company, including, but not limited to, existing and future liabilities related to the former Animal Wellness Group and wages accrued and other liabilities on the Company’s balance sheet related to the Company’s former CEO.
Ceres Organic Harvest Inc. (Ceres), an acquisition that closed Feb. 20, 2009, was part of the Capsalus Organics and Sustainables Group (OSG). The Ceres acquisition included Organic Grain & Milling, Inc. (OGM), it’s wholly-owned subsidiary. OGM sourced organic grains from Midwestern farms and supplied them to the food and feed industries through its elevator in North Dakota. On March 31, 2010, Ceres adopted a plan to close the OGM business. As of March 31, 2010, substantially all operational activities of OGM were discontinued. In July 2010, the Board of Directors voted to discontinue all operations of Ceres due to the continued slow-down in its market along with the planned focus on the new branded business strategy the Company is pursuing.
Modular Process Constructors, LLC (dba MPS-BioPharm)— an acquisition transaction that closed Feb. 19, 2009— was part of Capsalus’ BioPharm Process Systems Group and engaged in the design and manufacture of constructed systems for the biopharmaceutical industry. It offered process modules and skids, custom tanks and vessels, and sanitary stainless steel flow equipment, along with professional project management, design qualifications, detail design, component procurement, schedule metrics and reporting. As of September 30, 2010, substantially all operational activities of MPS were discontinued. In October 2010, the Board of Directors voted to discontinue all operations of MPS due to the continued slow-down in its market along with the planned focus on the new branded business strategy the Company is pursuing. On December 31, 2010, under terms of a cancellation agreement, Capsalus cancelled the 500,000 shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series B Preferred Stock”) originally given in February 2009 to the Thomsen Group, LLC (“Thomsen”) for the purchase of all of the assets of Modular Process Contractors, LLC (“MPC”). Each share of Series B Preferred Stock was convertible into two shares of Capsalus common stock.
Continuing Operations
Acquired in April 2010, White Hat Holdings is a wholly owned division dedicated to researching and developing branded consumer products in the health and wellness space, including functional food and beverages.

More importantly, they make these products available at affordable prices. Currently, PanTheryx is developing an orally administered biologic therapeutic for treatment of pediatric diarrhea in India—a critical and life-threatening problem for young children throughout many parts of the the world.
We have not generated any operating revenues from our continuing operations, and as of December 31, 2010, we had incurred a cumulative consolidated net loss from inception of $30,664,134.
For the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, our consolidated net losses were $16,027,510 and $10,891,864 respectively. Our current liabilities exceed current assets by $3,206,770.
Although we completed various convertible debt financing throughout 2010, we require significant additional funding in order to achieve our business plan. We believe that our current cash position will be able to sustain our proposed operations for 3-6 months. Over the next 18 months, in order to have the capability of achieving our business plan, we believe that we will require at least $5,000,000 in additional funding. We will attempt to raise these funds by means of one or more public or private offerings of debt or equity securities or both. We do not believe that the required funds could be generated from the increased cash flows of our divisions as they become fully integrated.
Results of Operations
Year Ended December 31, 2010 Compared to Year Ended December 31, 2009
Operating expenses and impairment from continuing operations increased to $13,103,764 in the year ended December 31, 2010 from $5,827,414 in the same period in 2009. As of April 14, 2010, the Company expected to pursue the production, marketing and sale of White Hat’s ready-to-drink juices. During the quarter ended December 31, 2010, the Company determined that, due to shelf life limitations, narrower than expected margins and high costs to enter these markets, the pursuit of this product line was not feasible. Instead, White Hat is focusing on marketing and selling powdered versions of its original formulas. As such, during the quarter ended December 31, 2010, the Company determined the goodwill initially recorded of $13,141,276 was partially impaired. The calculated impairment of $11,126,524 was charged to operating expenses in the Company’s consolidated statement of operations. General operating expenses were $1,922,074 for the year ended December 31, 2010 compared to $2,486,897 for the comparable period in 2009, a decrease of $564,823. The decrease was primarily due to lack of cash.
13
Interest expense for the year ended December 31, 2010 was $1,636,333 compared to $572,875 for the same period last year. Interest expense increased mainly due to the recording of beneficial conversion features on existing, and new debt, and to the issuance of short term notes payable during the two quarters ended December 31, 2010.
Loss on sale of marketable securities for the year ended December 31, 2010 was $12,843 compared to $223,087 for the same period last year. The loss on sale of marketable securities is attributable to the sale of marketable securities acquired with the acquisition of PRF in 2008. We have liquidated all marketable securities as of December 31, 2010.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
We had a cash balance of $36,662 as of December 31, 2010 and a cash balance of $60,144 as of December 31, 2009.
The value of our marketable securities on December 31, 2010 decreased to $0 from $4,223 as of market close on December 31, 2009. The decrease is due to the final disposition of remaining marketable securities acquired in 2008.
Total assets at December 31, 2010 are $4,528,746 compared to $3,263,110 at December 31, 2009. This increase is attributable to the acquisition of WhiteHat Holdings, LLC ($14.4 million) offset by impairment to goodwill ($11 million) related to the acquisition. In addition, the Company invested an aggregate of $0.5 million in both WISH and PanTheryx. This net increase is offset by a decrease in assets related to discontinued operations ($2.4 million).
As of December 31, 2010, we have current liabilities totaling $3,363,479 compared to $3,303,102 at December 31, 2009.
Long term debt as of December 31, 2010 is $1,452,690 compared to $3,380,546 at December 31, 2009. This decrease is due to the conversion of approximately $1.1 million of the Company’s zero-coupon convertible notes in July of 2010 and to the recording of a beneficial conversion feature discount for a conversion proce adjustment on existing notes ($0.9 million).
Operating Activities
Net cash used in operations increased to $1,029,729 for the year ended December 31, 2010 from $765,726 for the year ended December 31, 2009. The decrease in operating cash flows was primarily due to the increased net loss from operations of the Company.
Investing Activities
Net cash used in investing activities increased to $365,056 for the year ended December 31, 2010 compared to $214,815 of cash being provided by investing activities for the year ended December 31, 2009. The increase in cash used was due to a decrease in cash provided by the sale of marketable securities as well as increased investment and cash acquisitions.
Financing Activities
Net cash provided by financing activities during the year ended December 31, 2010 was 1,558,757, compared to $1,235,506 during the year ended December 31, 2009. This increase is due to the Company being able to obtain more cash from borrowings under short-term and long-term debt ($0.1 million) and from sales of its common stock ($0.1 million). In addition, the Company’s transactions related to treasury stock provided an increase in cash from financing activities by approximately $0.3 million. These increases were offset by an increase in cash repayments of debt of approximately $0.2 million.
14
Certain vendors have been asking for past due payments in the past 12 months. In those cases where we do not have an express agreement with vendors, it is possible that a vendor may demand payment or refuse to provide services that are critical to the ability of the Company to either continue to operate or to timely file required reports with the SEC. If any such risks materialize, it would likely decrease our likelihood of obtaining financing on terms acceptable to us, if at all. In addition, if we fail to reach sales revenue objectives (for any reason, including due to continued poor real estate and credit market conditions beyond our control), additional financing may not be available on terms favorable to us, if at all.
Over the next 18 months, in order to have the capability of achieving our business plan, we believe that we will require at least $5,000,000 in additional funding to pay down certain payables and accruals and to provide working capital. As of April 15, 2011, we have approximately $300,000 in cash and anticipate that this amount is sufficient for the next 30-60 days. Should we be unable to obtain additional funding in the next 3 months, we would be required to further cut expenses until such funding is obtained. We are currently attempting to raise these funds by means of one or more public or private offerings of debt or equity securities or both. However, at this point, we have not specifically identified the type or sources of this funding. We also are exploring commercial and joint venture financing opportunities. If we are unsuccessful in raising funds, we may have to reduce expenses and/or cease operations altogether.
If additional funds are raised by the issuance of our equity securities, such as through the issuance and exercise of common stock, then existing stockholders will experience dilution of their ownership interest. If additional funds are raised by the issuance of debt or other types of (typically preferred) equity instruments, then we may be subject to certain limitations in our operations. Issuance of such securities may have rights senior to those of the then existing holders of our common stock. If adequate funds are not available or not available on acceptable terms, we may be unable to fund expansion, develop or enhance products or respond to competitive pressures.
Our longer-term working capital and capital requirements will depend upon numerous factors, including revenue and profit generation, the cost of filing, prosecuting, defending, and enforcing patent claims and other intellectual property rights, competing technological and market developments and collaborative arrangements. Additional capital will be required in order to attain our goals. We cannot assure you that funds from our future operations or funds provided by our current financing activities will meet the requirements of our operations, and in that event, we will continue to seek additional sources of financing to maintain liquidity. We are actively pursuing all potential financing options as we look to secure additional funds to both stabilize and to grow our business operations. Our management will review any financing options at their disposal, and will judge each potential source of funds on its individual merits. We cannot assure you that we will be able to secure additional funds from debt or equity financing, as and when we need to, or if we can, that the terms of this financing will be favorable to us or our stockholders.
Off-balance Sheet Arrangements
We have no off-balance sheet arrangements.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Refer to Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies in our consolidated financial statements for a discussion of recent accounting pronouncements.
Critical Accounting Policies
The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosures. We evaluate these estimates on an on-going basis. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
We consider the following accounting policies to be those most important to the portrayal of our results of operations and financial condition:
15
Income Taxes. We account for income taxes using an asset and liability approach to financial accounting and reporting for income taxes. Accordingly, deferred tax assets and liabilities arise from the difference between the tax basis of an asset or liability and its reported amount in the consolidated financial statements. Deferred tax amounts are determined using the tax rates expected to be in effect when the taxes will actually be paid or refunds received, as provided under currently enacted tax law. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized. Income tax expense or benefit is the tax payable or refundable, respectively, for the period plus or minus the change in deferred tax assets and liabilities during the period. We have recorded a full valuation allowance for our net deferred tax assets as of December 31, 2010 and 2009 because realization of those assets is not reasonably assured.
We will recognize a financial statement benefit of a tax position only after determining that the relevant tax authority would more likely than not sustain the position following an audit. For tax positions meeting the more-likely-than-not threshold, the amount recognized in the financial statements is the largest benefit that has a greater than fifty percent likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement with the relevant tax authority.
Accounts Receivable. Accounts receivable arise in the normal course of business in selling products to customers. Concentrations of credit risk with respect to accounts receivable arise because the Company grants unsecured credit in the form of trade accounts receivable to its customers.
Accounts are written off as they are deemed uncollectible based upon a periodic analysis of specific customers, taking into consideration the age of past due accounts and the customer’s ability to pay.
Property and Equipment: Property and equipment is reported at cost less accumulated depreciation. Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. The cost of property and equipment is depreciated over the following estimated useful lives of the related assets:
Computer Equipment 3 years
Intangible Assets: Identified intangible assets (excluding goodwill), consisting primarily of developed formulations, customer relationships, licensed assets and trademarks, are being amortized using a method that reflects the pattern in which the related assets are expected to be consumed.
Investments: Investments in businesses that are not controlled, and over which we do not have the ability to exercise significant influence, are accounted for under the cost method.
Impairment of Long-Lived and Amortizable Intangible Assets: The Company periodically evaluates the carrying value of long-lived and amortizable intangible assets to be held and used, including but not limited to, property and equipment, investments and intangible assets, when events and circumstances warrant such a review. The carrying value of a long-lived or amortizable intangible asset is considered impaired when the anticipated undiscounted cash flow from such asset is less than its carrying value. In that event, a loss is recognized based on the amount by which the carrying value exceeds the fair value of the long-lived asset. Fair value is determined primarily using the anticipated cash flows discounted at a rate commensurate with the risk involved. Losses on long-lived and amortizable intangible assets to be disposed of are determined in a similar manner, except that fair values are reduced for the cost to dispose. The Company has reviewed long-lived and amortizable intangible assets with estimable useful lives and determined that the remaining net carrying value, after impairing certain assets in 2010, is recoverable in future periods.
Goodwill. Goodwill is the excess of cost of an acquired entity over the amounts assigned to assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination. Goodwill is not amortized. We evaluate the carrying value of goodwill annually during the quarter ending December 31, and between such annual evaluations if events occur or circumstances change that would indicate a possible impairment. We use a discounted cash flow model based on management’s judgment and assumptions to determine the estimated fair value of the Company. An impairment loss generally would be recognized when the carrying amount of the Company’s net assets exceeds the estimated fair value of the reporting unit.
16
Fair Value of Financial Instruments. The respective carrying value of certain on-balance sheet financial instruments approximates their fair values. These financial instruments include cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, and notes payable. Fair values were assumed to approximate cost or carrying values as most of the debt was incurred recently and the assets were acquired within one year. Management is of the opinion that the Company is not exposed to significant interest, credit or currency risks arising from these financial instruments.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Stockholders and Board of Directors
Capsalus Corp.
Atlanta, GA
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Capsalus Corp. as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ equity (deficit) and cash flows for the years then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Capsalus Corp. as of December 31, 2010 and 2009 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 4 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has suffered losses from operations since its inception. This factor raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 3. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
As discussed in Note 3 to the consolidated financial statements, the consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2010 have been restated.

The accompanying notes are an integral part of these consolidated financial statements
F-6
Note 1. Nature of Operations
Capsalus is a global wellness solutions company with operations in Nutritional Products. Capsalus was originally incorporated under the name Mach One Corporation. On October 20, 2010, the Company changed its name to Capsalus Corp. During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010, Capsalus discontinued the operations of its Organics & Sustainables, Animal Wellness and BioPharm Process Systems groups. The Nutritional Products Division is a consumer-driven business unit focused on healthy food and beverages.
Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Principles of Consolidation: The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, as of the dates of their acquisitions. The wholly-owned subsidiaries include White Hat Holdings, Inc., Ceres Organic Harvest, Inc. (Ceres), Pacific Rim Foods, Ltd. (Pacific Rim), and Modular Process Constructors, LLC (MPS). All inter-company transactions and balances have been eliminated in the consolidation.
Management Estimates: The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with US generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The Company regularly evaluates estimates and assumptions related to the realizability of accounts receivable, inventory valuation, impairment of long-lived assets, and deferred income tax asset valuation allowances. The Company bases its estimates and assumptions on current facts, historical experience and various other factors that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities and the accrual of costs and expenses that are not readily apparent from other sources. The actual results experienced by the Company may differ materially and adversely from the Company’s estimates. To the extent there are material differences between the estimates and the actual results, future results of operations will be affected.
Cash and Cash Equivalents: For purposes of reporting cash flows, the Company considers all cash accounts which are not subject to withdrawal restrictions or penalties, and certificates of deposit with original maturities of 90 days or less to be cash or cash equivalents. The Company maintains cash balances at four financial institutions. Accounts at each institution are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation up to varying amounts. At times, the cash balances in these accounts may exceed federally insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts and believes they are not exposed to any significant credit risk on cash and cash equivalents.
Property and Equipment: Property and equipment is reported at cost less accumulated depreciation. Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. The cost of property and equipment is depreciated over the following estimated useful lives of the related assets:
|
Computer Equipment
|
3 years
|
|
Intangible Assets: Identified intangible assets (excluding goodwill), consisting primarily of developed formulations, customer relationships, licensed assets and trademarks, are being amortized using a method that reflects the pattern in which the related assets are expected to be consumed.
F-7
Impairment of Long-Lived and Amortizable Intangible Assets: The Company periodically evaluates the carrying value of long-lived and amortizable intangible assets to be held and used, including but not limited to, property and equipment, investments and intangible assets, when events and circumstances warrant such a review. The carrying value of a long-lived or amortizable intangible asset is considered impaired when the anticipated undiscounted cash flow from such asset is less than its carrying value. In that event, a loss is recognized based on the amount by which the carrying value exceeds the fair value of the long-lived asset. Fair value is determined primarily using the anticipated cash flows discounted at a rate commensurate with the risk involved. Losses on long-lived and amortizable intangible assets to be disposed of are determined in a similar manner, except that fair values are reduced for the cost to dispose. The Company has reviewed long-lived and amortizable intangible assets with estimable useful lives and determined that the remaining net carrying value, after impairing certain assets in 2010, is recoverable in future periods.
Segment Reporting: The Company operates and manages the business under one reporting segment.
Investments: Investments in businesses that are not controlled, and over which we do not have the ability to exercise significant influence, are accounted for under the cost method.
Goodwill: Goodwill is the excess of cost of an acquired entity over the amounts assigned to assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination. Goodwill is not amortized. We evaluate the carrying value of goodwill annually during the quarter ending December 31, and between such annual evaluations if events occur or circumstances change that would indicate a possible impairment. We use a discounted cash flow model based on management’s judgment and assumptions to determine the estimated fair value of the Company. An impairment loss generally would be recognized when the carrying amount of the Company’s net assets exceeds the estimated fair value of the reporting unit.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments: The respective carrying value of certain on-balance sheet financial instruments approximates their fair values. These financial instruments include cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, and notes payable. Fair values were assumed to approximate cost or carrying values as most of the debt was incurred recently and the assets were acquired within one year. Management is of the opinion that the Company is not exposed to significant interest, credit or currency risks arising from these financial instruments.
Income Taxes: The Company provides for income taxes using an asset and liability approach. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recorded based on the differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities and the tax rates in effect when these differences are expected to reverse. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance if, based on the weight of the available evidence, it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. For all periods presented, the Company has recorded a full valuation allowance against its deferred tax assets.
The Company recognizes a financial statement benefit of a tax position only after determining that the relevant tax authority would more likely than not sustain the position following an audit. For tax positions meeting the more-likely-than-not threshold, the amount recognized in the financial statements is the largest benefit that has a greater than fifty percent likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement with the relevant tax authority.
Comprehensive Income (Loss): Comprehensive Income (Loss) includes net loss and items defined as other comprehensive income. Items defined as other comprehensive income include unrealized gains (losses) on marketable securities. There were no other comprehensive income (loss) items for the year ended December 31, 2010. The Company had $(12,065) of other comprehensive income (loss) for the year ended December 31, 2009.
Reclassifications: Certain reclassifications have been made to the 2009 financial statement presentation to correspond to the current year’s format. Total 2009 equity and net loss are unchanged due to these reclassifications.
F-8
Recent Accounting Developments: In December 2010, the FASB issued authoritative guidance that modifies Step 1 of the goodwill impairment test for reporting units with zero or negative carrying amounts that will become effective for Capsalus beginning on January 1, 2011. Early adoption is not permitted. Under the new guidance, reporting units with zero or negative carrying amounts will be required to perform Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test if it is more likely than not that a goodwill impairment exists. In determining whether it is more likely than not that a goodwill impairment exists, an entity should consider whether there are any adverse qualitative factors indicating that an impairment may exist. The qualitative factors are consistent with the existing guidance and examples in the FASB guidance document, which requires that goodwill of a reporting unit be tested for impairment between annual tests if an event occurs or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying amount. We believe adoption of this new guidance will not have a material impact on our financial statements.
Note 3. Restatement
Subsequent to the filing of its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010, the Company identified an error in its previously reported acquisition of WhiteHat Holdings, LLC. The Company incorrectly reported contingent consideration in the aforementioned acquisition as a liability rather than as additional paid-in capital.
The following table presents the effects of the adjustments made to the Company’s previously reported consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2010:

Note 4. Going Concern Uncertainty
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on the basis that the Company will continue as a going concern, which assumes the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has accumulated losses totaling $30,664,134 from inception through December 31, 2010, and a net working capital deficit of $3,206,770 as of December 31, 2010. The uncertainty related to these conditions raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
Over the next 18 months, in order to have the capability of achieving our business plan, we believe that we will require at least $5,000,000 in additional funding to pay down certain payables and accruals and to provide working capital. Should we be unable to obtain additional funding in the next 3 months, we would be required to further cut expenses until such funding is obtained. We are currently attempting to raise these funds by means of one or more public or private offerings of debt or equity securities or both. However, at this point, we have not specifically identified the type or sources of this funding. We also are exploring commercial and joint venture financing opportunities. If we are unsuccessful in raising funds, we may have to reduce expenses and/or cease operations altogether.
Note 5. Discontinued Operations
On March 31, 2010, Ceres adopted a plan to close the business of Organic Grain and Milling, Inc. (OGM). As of March 31, 2010, substantially all operational activities of OGM were discontinued. As a result, effective in its first quarter of fiscal 2010, the Company classified OGM as discontinued operations separate from the continuing operations of the Company for all the periods presented in the financial statements.
On July 1, 2010, the Company adopted a plan to close the business of Ceres. As of July 1, 2010, substantially all operational activities of Ceres were discontinued. As a result, effective in the quarter ended September 30, 2010, the Company classified Ceres as discontinued operations separate from the continuing operations of the Company for all the periods presented in the financial statements.
On August 6, 2010, the Company entered into an agreement to sell the Animal Wellness Group business (refer to Note 7. Sale of Animal Wellness Group Assets). As a result, effective in the quarter ended September 30, 2010, the Company classified the Animal Wellness group as discontinued operations separate from the continuing operations of the Company for all the periods presented in the financial statements.
On December 31, 2010, the Company adopted a plan to close the business of Modular Process Systems, LLC (MPS). As of December 31, 2010, substantially all operational activities of MPS were discontinued. As a result, effective in the quarter ended December 31, 2010, the Company classified MPS as discontinued operations separate from the continuing operations of the Company for all the periods presented in the financial statements.

Note 6. Product License and Asset Purchase
On August 11, 2009, the Company entered into an exclusive license and distribution agreement to acquire the formulations and worldwide marketing rights to a suite of products that promote joint and bone health in horses, dogs and humans. These formulas and related rights are being acquired from Platte Valley State Bank (Platte Valley), who currently owns all rights pertaining to these products. The products were previously developed, manufactured and distributed by Clark Biotechnology, Inc. (CBI). CBI discontinued operations in 2008 due to the death of its founder.

The agreement calls for minimum royalties totaling $350,000 to be paid as follows:

(1) The Company made this payment by the due date referenced above
The Company has imputed interest on these installments at a rate of 12%, which is equivalent to the Company’s estimated borrowing rate as of the date of the agreement. The discounted value of the licensed asset totals $243,700 and has been included in intangible assets on our consolidated balance sheet and a corresponding liability included in current portion of long-term debt and long-term debt (refer to Note 13. Long-term Debt) as of December 31, 2010.
The Company is treating these minimum royalty payments as a purchase of the related formulations and marketing rights as once these minimum royalty payments are made, the Company will have sole title to the formulations and marketing rights.
In addition, the Company is required to pay additional royalties of 4% of net sales of the products that exceed $2,000,000 in each year of the agreement. These royalties will be recorded as incurred. There were no sales of this product during the period from August 11, 2009 to December 31, 2010.
Note 7. Sale of Animal Wellness Group Assets
On August 6, 2010, the Company entered into an agreement to sell substantially all of the assets, including equipment, license rights, certain receivables and intellectual property, of its former Animal Wellness Group to Hi-TIgG, Inc., a company owned by the Company’s former CEO (Purchaser). In return, the Purchaser assumed certain liabilities of the Company, including, but not limited to, existing and future liabilities related to the former Animal Wellness Group and wages accrued and other liabilities on the Company’s balance sheet related to the Company’s former CEO.
The following table summarizes the net assets and liabilities relating to the Animal Wellness group that were sold to the Purchaser on August 6, 2010:

Note 8. Acquisition
On April 14, 2010, the Company completed an acquisition of WhiteHat Holdings, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (WhiteHat), through the merger of WhiteHat into White Hat Acquisition Corp., a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (Merger Sub), pursuant to a Plan and Agreement of Merger entered into by the parties on February 25, 2010 (the Merger Agreement). The Merger Sub subsequently changed its name to White Hat Holdings, Inc. (White Hat) and will operate as a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company.
F-11
Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement (i) $400,000 was to be deposited into a White Hat account not later than April 30, 2010, to be used by White Hat to pay its legal, accounting, marketing and debt expenses and to further the development of its business, and (ii) all of the issued and outstanding shares of common and preferred stock of WhiteHat were converted into 154,798,780 shares of the Company’s common stock and distributed to the WhiteHat shareholders pro rata. In addition, $1,175,000 of WhiteHat indebtedness was cancelled and converted into 15,343,750 shares of the Company’s common stock at approximately $0.08 per share. Upon the close of the acquisition, the former WhiteHat shareholders owned approximately 45% of the total issued and outstanding common stock of the Company. In the event that less than $400,000 was deposited into a White Hat account by April 30, 2010, the Company is required to issue additional shares of its common stock (Penalty Shares) to the WhiteHat shareholders, pro rata. In addition, the Company was obligated to provide additional capital to White Hat of not less than $1,600,000 on or before July 4, 2010. In the event the Company failed to provide such capital within the required time period, the Company was required to issue to the former WhiteHat shareholders up to 33,691,592 additional shares of its common stock (Additional Shares). However, in no event will the total number of shares issued to the WhiteHat shareholders at the closing, together with any Penalty Shares and/or Additional Shares exceed 49.9% of the Company’s issued and outstanding common stock.
As of the date of this report, the Company has deposited all of the initial $400,000 but did not provide all of the $1,600,000 of the additional capital required under the Merger Agreement. The Company is working with the White Hat management team to raise the additional funding necessary under the agreement. However, as the July 4, 2010 funding commitment date was missed, the Company has appropriately recorded the fair value of the Additional Shares of $2,358,411 as additional purchase consideration and as a credit to additional paid-in capital.
Due to the nature and timing of this transaction, as of June 30, 2010, the Company had made a good-faith estimate as to the value of the consideration paid for WhiteHat and the fair value of acquired assets and assumed liabilities, including identifiable intangibles, and recorded a preliminary purchase price allocation.
The following table summarizes the allocation of the purchase price to the fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the date of acquisition, in accordance with the purchase method of accounting, as of December 31, 2010:

Estimated aggregate amortization expense based on current intangibles for the next five years is expected to be as follows: $39,293 in 2011, $124,349 in 2012, $309,171 in 2013 and $434,024 in 2014, and $836,863 in 2015.
Goodwill
The Company initially expected to pursue the production, marketing and sale of White Hat’s ready-to-drink juices. During the quarter ended December 31, 2010, the Company determined that, due to shelf life limitations, narrower than expected margins and high costs to enter these markets, the pursuit of this product line was not feasible. Instead, White Hat is focusing on marketing and selling powdered versions of its original formulas. As such, during the quarter ended December 31, 2010, the Company determined the goodwill initially recorded of $13,141,276 was partially impaired. The calculated impairment of $11,126,524 and was charged to operating expenses in the Company’s consolidated statement of operations.
Changes in goodwill, for the year ended December 31, 2010, were as follows:

Short-term Convertible Notes Payable
Commonwealth One
The Commonwealth One round of financing was closed in the quarter ended December 31, 2008. Proceeds from the notes were $550,000. Interest at 12.0% was due with the principal on various dates through June 2009. The notes are unsecured and are convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock at $0.045 per share at any time during the term of the notes.
During the year ended December 31, 2009, $450,000 of the Commonwealth One notes were converted into 10,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. During the quarter ended September 30, 2010, the Company paid $50,000 in principal on the remaining outstanding note balance totaling $100,000.
Subsequent to December 31, 2010, the remaining principal balance of $50,000 was paid in cash and $58,304 of related accrued interest was converted into 1,295,646 shares of the Company’s common stock at $0.045 per share.
Plant Notes
The Company also entered into loan agreements with an unrelated individual (Plant Notes) during the quarters ended December 31, 2008 and March 31, 2009. Proceeds from the agreements totaled $105,000 with interest at 5.0% due with the principal on June 30, 2010. The notes are unsecured and are convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock at $0.50 per share at any time during the term of the notes. During the year ended December 31, 2010, the Company paid $20,000 in principal and accrued interest on the Plant Notes. The note holder has verbally extended the remaining balance of this note until further notice.
Blake Note
In connection with the acquisition of Pacific Rim Foods on December 31, 2008, the Company acquired a note payable for $100,000 to an unrelated individual (Blake Note). Interest at 10.0% is payable annually. All outstanding interest and principal are due January 13, 2011. The note is unsecured and is convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock at $0.125 per share at any time during the term of the note. The note holder has verbally extended the remaining balance of this note until a replacement note is able to be executed.
F-14
CMS Notes
In December 2009, the Company entered into a round of financing with Charles Morgan Securities, Inc. Proceeds from the notes (CMS Notes) were $50,000 as of December 31, 2009. Interest at 12.0% is due with the principal on September 30, 2010. The notes are unsecured and are convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock at $0.08 per share at any time during the term of the notes. The conversion price is subject to certain weighted-average anti-dilution adjustments if the Company were to subsequently issue common stock at a price below the then-applicable conversion price.
During the quarter ended March 31, 2010, proceeds from additional CMS notes were $100,000. Interest at 12.0% is due with the principal on February 11, 2011. The notes are unsecured and are convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock at $0.04 per share at any time during the term of the notes. As the conversion price of the CMS notes issued during the quarter ended March 31, 2010 was below the then current market price of the Company’s common stock, a beneficial conversion feature discount was recorded, in the form of a debt discount, in the amount of $100,000. The discount recorded is being amortized to interest expense over the life of the notes. Amortization of $92,708 was recorded for the year ended December 31, 2010.
During the quarter ended June 30, 2010, $50,000 of the original CMS notes, and $3,000 of related accrued interest, were converted to 1,325,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at $0.04 per share. The note converted had an original conversion rate of $0.08 per share. Since the actual conversion rate was lower, the Company recorded a beneficial conversion feature charge in its consolidated statement of operations of $50,000 during the quarter ending June 30, 2010.
2010 Tranche I Notes
During the quarter ended June 30, 2010, the Company entered into a round of financing with a group of individual lenders. Proceeds from the notes (2010 Tranche I Notes) were $60,000 as of June 30, 2010. The notes are unsecured, bear interest at 10%, are due at various dates from April through May 2011, and are convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock at prices ranging from $0.03 to $0.04 per share at any time during the term of the notes. As the conversion price of the notes was below the then current market price of the Company’s common stock, a beneficial conversion feature discount was recorded, in the form of a debt discount, in the amount of $60,000. The discount recorded is being amortized to interest expense over the life of the notes. Amortization of $31,111 was recorded for the year ended December 31, 2010.
During the quarter ended September 30, 2010, additional proceeds from additional 2010 Tranche I Notes were $1,144,000. These notes are unsecured, bear interest ranging from 10% to 12%, are due at various dates from July through September 2011, and are convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock at $0.04 per share at any time during the term of the notes.
Except for the CMS notes issued during the quarter ended March 31, 2010, and the initial $60,000 of 2010 Tranche I notes, the conversion prices of all other convertible notes were established at, or above, the then current market price of the Company’s common stock and therefore, no beneficial conversion feature discount has been recorded.

Zero Coupon Notes
In December 2008, the Company issued Zero Coupon Convertible Subordinated notes payable with a maturity date of December 12, 2013 for proceeds of $3,035,000. No payments are required on the notes until maturity at which time the principal amount of $3,808,298 is due. Original interest discount (OID) accrues at a rate of 5% per year on the accreted value of the note. The holder may at any time during the term of the note convert the accreted value of the notes into shares of common stock of the Company. If either an event of default occurs under the note, as defined in the note agreement, or a change of control occurs with respect to the Company, the holder of the note may put the note to the Company at its accreted value.
F-16
The original conversion price of the Zero Coupon Convertible Subordinated notes ($0.125 per share) was established at, or above, the then current market price of the Company’s common stock and therefore, no beneficial conversion feature discount has been recorded. The conversion price is subject to weighted-average anti-dilution adjustments in the event we issue common stock at a price below the then-applicable conversion price other than common stock issuances or option grants to the Company's employees, directors or officers.
The Company does not consider these anti-dilution features to be an embedded derivative and therefore subject to variable accounting due to the embedded instrument not meeting the net settlement characteristic as noted in Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 815-10-15-83(c) and ASC 815-10-15-99. More specifically, to meet the net settlement characteristics, an embedded instrument must be able to be either (1) net settled under contract terms, (2) net settled through a market mechanism or (3) net settled by delivery of derivative instrument or asset readily convertible to cash. The Company believes the embedded instrument cannot be net settled via contract terms or a market mechanism and although settlement of the embedded instrument could be made with the delivery of the Company's common stock (i.e. an asset), due to the Company's stock being lightly traded as per ASC 815-10-15-130 and as illustrated at ASC 815-10-55-87, 88 and 89 (Cases B through D), to be considered "readily convertible to cash", the number of shares of stock to be exchanged must be small relative to the stock's daily transaction volume. Currently, the Company’s daily transaction volume of their common stock is very low. However, moving forward, as required in ASC 815-10-15-139, the Company will continually evaluate whether or not the common stock is considered to be readily convertible to cash. In the event the Company's daily trading volume of their common stock were to increase significantly to the point where the shares to be exchanged in connection with the convertible notes would be relatively small in relation to the daily trading volume, the contract would then satisfy the net settlement characteristic and likely may need to be accounted for as a derivative.
Under current accounting guidance, if the terms of a contingent conversion option does not permit an issuer to compute the number of shares that the holder would receive if the contingent event occurs and the conversion price is adjusted, an issuer shall wait until the contingent event occurs and then compute the resulting number of shares that would be received pursuant to the new conversion price. The number of shares that would be received upon conversion based on the adjusted conversion price would then be compared with the number that would have been received before the occurrence of the contingent event. The excess number of shares multiplied by the commitment date stock price equals the incremental intrinsic value that results from the resolution of the contingency and the corresponding adjustment to the conversion price. That incremental amount shall be recognized when the triggering event occurs.
On April 14, 2010, the acquisition of WhiteHat qualified as a triggering event for the weighted-average anti-dilution adjustments. The Company evaluated the event based upon the note agreement and determined that the conversion price of the notes should be adjusted down to $0.076 per share. Since this new conversion price is lower than the original conversion price, the Company recognized and recorded a beneficial conversion feature discount, in the form of a debt discount, in the amount of $1,812,180. The discount recorded is being amortized to interest expense over the remaining life of the notes using the effective interest method. Amortization of $179,273 was recorded for the year ended December 31, 2010.
On July 8, 2010, approximately $1.1 million of the Company’s zero-coupon convertible notes payable were converted to 17,550,610 million shares of the Company’s common stock at $0.06 per share. The notes converted had a revised conversion rate of $0.076 per share. Since the actual conversion rate was lower, the Company recognized and recorded an additional beneficial conversion feature charge in its consolidated statement of operations of approximately $280,000 during the quarter ending September 30, 2010. In addition, the conversion resulted in the recognition of the portion of the previously recorded debt discount that related to the converted notes. This resulted in a charge to interest expense of $571,105 for the year ended December 31, 2010.
Convertible Notes Payable
During the quarter ended June 30, 2010, the Company entered into a financing agreement with an individual lender. Proceeds from the notes were $100,000 on April 1, 2010 and $300,000 on June 2, 2010. The notes are unsecured and are convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock at $0.02 per share at any time during the term of the notes. As the conversion price of the notes was below the then current market price of the Company’s common stock, a beneficial conversion feature discount was recorded, in the form of a debt discount, in the amount of $100,000 and $300,000, respectively. The discount recorded is being amortized to interest expense over the life of the notes. Amortization of $125,000 was recorded for the year ended December 31, 2010.

Note 14. Basic and Diluted Earnings (Loss) Per Share
The Company computes earnings (loss) per share under two different methods, basic and diluted, and presents per share data for all periods in which statements of operations are presented. Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding. Diluted earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common stock and common stock equivalents outstanding. The table below shows the calculation of basic and diluted loss per share for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively:
