We are a U.S. based company that sources, produces and distributes industrial products in China and the Americas.  We also provide business and financial consulting services to public and private American and Chinese businesses.  We operate in three identifiable segments, as defined by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 280, “Segment Reporting:” Magnesium, Basic Materials and Consulting.  Beginning in 2006 we established our Magnesium and Basic Materials segments which have grown through acquisitions of controlling interests in Chinese private companies.  We consolidate these acquisitions as either wholly or majority owned subsidiaries.  Through our U.S. based industrial commodities business, established in 2009, we source, finance, manage logistics, and sell industrial commodities from North and South America for ultimate distribution in China.

In our Magnesium segment, currently our largest segment by revenues and assets, we produce, sell and distribute pure magnesium ingots, magnesium powder and magnesium scraps.  In our Basic Materials segment, we sell and distribute a variety of products, including industrial grade synthetic chemicals, steel products, non ferrous metals, recycled materials, and industrial commodities.  This segment also includes our zinc ore mining property which has not commenced operations.  

In our Consulting segment, we provide business and financial consulting services to U.S. public companies that operate primarily in China.  The consulting fees we charge vary based upon the scope of the services we provide.

We have defined various periods that are covered in this report as follows: 

 
 
“fiscal 2011” – October 1, 2010 through September 30, 2011
 
 
“fiscal 2010” — October 1, 2009 through September 30, 2010.

Basis of Presentation

Our interim consolidated financial statements are unaudited. We prepared the consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and pursuant to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) rules for interim reporting. In the opinion of management, we included all adjustments that are necessary for the fair presentation of our financial position, results of operations, and cash flows for the interim periods presented. Except as disclosed herein, such adjustments are of a normal and recurring nature. Results for the first nine months of the fiscal year may not necessarily be indicative of full year results. It is suggested that these consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and the notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2010 and our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for interim periods.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Concentration of Credit Risks

Financial instruments which potentially subject us to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash, trade accounts receivable and notes receivables. We deposit our cash with high credit quality financial institutions in the United States and China.  As of June 30, 2011, we had no bank deposits in the United States that exceeded federally insured limits.  At June 30, 2011, we had bank deposits of $5,866,219 in China.  In China, there is no equivalent federal deposit insurance as in the United States, so the amounts held in banks in China are not insured. We have not experienced any losses in such bank accounts through June 30, 2011.

At June 30, 2011 and September 30, 2010, bank deposits by geographic area were as follows:

Country
 
June 30, 2011
   
September 30, 2010
 
United States
    4,397,568       43 %     4,851,329       48 %
China
    5,866,219       57 %     5,259,489       52 %
Total cash and cash equivalents
    10,263,787       100 %     10,110,818       100 %

In an effort to mitigate any potential risk, we periodically evaluate the credit quality of the financial institutions at which we hold deposits, both in the United States and China.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
June 30, 2011
 
A significant portion of our revenues during the three month period ended June 30, 2011 were comprised of a note receivable in the principal amount of $11,075,206  that is convertible into shares of common stock of the issuer and a receivable of $500,000 that we received from to a client as consulting fees whose ability to pay is dependent upon the success of its business and the industry in which it operates. Concentrations of credit risk with respect to trade accounts and notes receivables is, however, limited as the payment terms due to generally short payment terms.  We also perform ongoing credit evaluations of our clients to help further reduce credit risk.

Foreign Currency Translation

Our reporting currency is the U.S. dollar. The functional currency of the parent company is the U.S. dollar and the functional currency of our Chinese subsidiaries is the Renminbi (“RMB”), the official currency of the People’s Republic of China. Capital accounts of the consolidated financial statements are translated into United States dollars from RMB at their historical exchange rates when the capital transactions occurred. Assets and liabilities are translated at the exchange rates as of the balance sheet dates. Income and expenditures are translated at the average exchange rates for the nine month period ended June 30, 2011 and the fiscal year ended September 30, 2010. A summary of the conversion rates for the periods presented is as follows:

   
June 30, 2011
   
September 30, 2010
 
Period end RMB: U.S. dollar exchange rate
    6.4630       6.6981  
Average fiscal-year-to-date RMB: U.S. dollar exchange rate
    6.5710       6.8214  

RMB is not freely convertible into foreign currency and all foreign exchange transactions must take place through PRC authorized institutions.  No representation is made that RMB amounts could have been, or could be, converted into United States dollars at the rates applied in the translation.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

We adopted on a prospective basis certain required provisions of ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements.”  These provisions relate to our financial assets and liabilities carried at fair value and our fair value disclosures related to financial assets and liabilities. ASC Topic 820 defines fair value, expands related disclosure requirements and specifies a hierarchy of valuation techniques based on the nature of the inputs used to develop the fair value measurements. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. There are three levels of inputs to fair value measurements - Level 1, meaning the use of quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets; Level 2, meaning the use of quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets or quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active or are directly or indirectly observable; and Level 3, meaning the use of unobservable inputs. Observable market data should be used when available.

Most of our financial instruments are carried at fair value, including, all of our cash and cash equivalents, accounts and notes receivable, prepayments and other current assets, accounts payable, taxes payable, accrued expenses and other current liabilities, investments classified as available for sale securities and assets held for sale, with unrealized gains or losses recognized as Other Comprehensive Income (OCI), net of tax. Virtually all of our valuation measurements are Level 1 measurements.

Marketable Securities

Marketable Securities that we receive from our clients as compensation are generally restricted for sale under Federal securities laws. Our policy is to liquidate securities received as compensation when market conditions are favorable for sale. Since these securities are often restricted, we are unable to liquidate them until the restriction is removed. We recognize revenue for the common stock we receive as compensation based on the fair value at the time the common stock is granted or at the time service has been rendered and for common stock purchase warrants based on the Black-Scholes valuation model. Pursuant to ASC Topic 320, “Investments –Debt and Equity Securities” our marketable securities have a readily determinable and active quoted price, such as from NASDAQ, NYSE Euronext, the Over the Counter Bulletin Board, and the OTC Markets Group (formerly known as the Pink Sheets) and any unrealized gain or loss is recognized as an element of comprehensive income based on changes in the fair value of the security as quoted on an exchange or an inter-dealer quotation system. Once liquidated, any realized gain or loss on the sale of marketable securities is reflected in our net income for the period in which the security was liquidated.

We perform an analysis of our marketable securities at least on an annual basis to determine if any of these securities have become other than temporarily impaired. If we determine that the decline in fair value is other than temporary we recognize the amount of the impairment as a realized loss into our current period net income (loss). This determination is based on a number of factors, including but not limited to (i) the percentage of the decline, (ii) the severity of the decline in relation to the enterprise/market conditions, and (iii) the duration of the decline.

Derivative Warrant Liabilities

ASC Subtopic 815-40 (formerly EITF 07-5), “Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity,” requires that entities recognize as derivative liabilities the derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts that are not indexed to an entity’s’ own stock. Pursuant to the provisions of ASC Section 815-40-15, an entity should use a two-step approach to evaluate whether an equity-linked financial instrument (or embedded feature) is indexed to its own stock, including evaluating the instrument’s contingent exercise and settlement provisions. The adoption of ASC Subtopic 815-40 has affected the accounting for (i) certain freestanding warrants that contain exercise price adjustment features and (ii) convertible bonds issued by foreign subsidiaries with a strike price denominated in a foreign currency. In the case of any such warrants and convertible bonds, ASC Subtopic 815-40 provides that such warrants and bonds are to be treated as a liability at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in earnings.

We adopted ASC Subtopic 815-40 on December 31, 2010 and reclassified certain warrants we issued in connection with our February 2008 series A convertible preferred stock offering as a liability rather than as stockholders’ equity and recognized the changes in fair value in earnings. The balance of the derivative liabilities as of June 30, 2011 was zero as the warrants expected time to exercise expired on June 30, 2011. The cumulative unrealized gain on the change in fair value was $159,467. See Note 11 – Capital Stock – Reclassification of Derivative Liabilities for more details.

 Accrual of Environmental Obligations
 
ASC Section 410-30-25 “Recognition” of environmental obligations requires the accrual of a liability if both of the following conditions are met:

a.  
Information available before the financial statements are issued or are available to be issued indicates that it is probable that an asset has been impaired or a liability has been incurred at the date of the financial statements.
b.  
The amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated.

As of June 30, 2011, we do not have any environmental remediation obligations, nor do we have any asset retirement obligations under ASC 410. Furthermore, we do not have any environmental remediation loss contingencies requiring recognition or disclosure in our financial statements.
 
Recent Pronouncements
 
Comprehensive Income

Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2011-05 amends FASB Codification Topic 220 on comprehensive income (1) to eliminate the current option to present the components of other comprehensive income in the statement of changes in equity, and (2) to require presentation of net income and other comprehensive income (and their respective components) either in a single continuous statement or in two separate but consecutive statements. These amendments do not alter any current recognition or measurement requirements in respect of items of other comprehensive income.

The amendments in this Update are to be applied prospectively. For public entities, the amendments are effective during interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011. Earlier adoption is permitted, because compliance with the amendments is already permitted. We will start to adopt this guidance in our 2012 fiscal year.

Business Combinations

In January 2011, ASU No. 2010-29 clarified that pro forma revenue and earnings for a business combination occurring in the current year should be presented as though the business combination occurred as of the beginning of the year or, if comparative statements are presented, as though the business combination took place as of the beginning of the comparative year.

The disclosures required of public entities in respect of a business combination occurring during the current reporting period called for in ASC Section 805-10-50 have been amended as follows:

 
If comparative financial statements are not presented, pro forma revenue and earnings of the combined entity should be based on the assumption that the business combination took place as of the beginning of the current year.

If comparative financial statements are presented (1) pro forma revenue and earnings of the combined entity should be based on the assumption that the business combination occurred as of the beginning of the comparative year, and (2) in the year following the business combination, pro forma information should not be revised if comparative statements for the year in which the acquisition occurred are presented (even if such year is the earliest period presented).
 
 
To require disclosure of the nature and amounts of any material nonrecurring adjustments directly attributable to the business combination included in the pro forma revenue and earnings (i.e., supplemental pro forma information).

The new and amended disclosures should be applied prospectively to business combinations consummated on or after the start of the first annual reporting period beginning on or after December 15, 2010, with earlier application permitted. We have adopted this guidance.

A variety of proposed or otherwise potential accounting standards are currently under study by standard setting organizations and various regulatory agencies.  Due to the tentative and preliminary nature of those proposed standards, management has not determined whether implementation of such proposed standards would be material to our consolidated financial statements. 

NOTE 2 – EARNINGS PER SHARE

Under the provisions of ASC Topic 260, “Earnings Per Share,” basic income (loss) per common share is computed by dividing income (loss) available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the periods presented. Diluted income (loss) per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock or resulted in the issuance of common stock that would then share in the income of the company, subject to anti-dilution limitations. For the three and nine months ended June 30, 2010, the effect of stock options, warrants and restricted stock awards is anti-dilutive.  Accordingly, basic and diluted income (loss) per share is the same for both periods presented.

The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted income (loss) per share for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 (unaudited):

NOTE 3 – COMPREHENSIVE INCOME

Comprehensive income is comprised of net income and other comprehensive income or loss.  Other comprehensive income or loss refers to revenue, expenses, gains and losses that under U.S. GAAP are included in comprehensive income but excluded from net income as these amounts are recorded directly as an adjustment to stockholders’ equity. Other comprehensive income consists of currency translation adjustments, unrealized loss on marketable securities available for sale, net of taxes and unrealized loss on marketable securities available for sale-related parties, net of taxes.

NOTE 4 – ACCOUNTS AND NOTES RECEIVABLE

        Accounts and notes receivables includes a convertible promissory note in the principal amount of $11,075,206 (the “Convertible Note”) due from China America Holdings, Inc. (“CAAH”) that we received as payment for certain consulting services we provided to CAAH related to its acquisition of a Chinese tile manufacturer that was completed on June 30, 2011. The Convertible Note bears interest at the rate of 3% per annum and will automatically convert into 1,538,223 shares of CAAH’s common stock upon the completion of, and after giving effect to, a 400 for 1 reverse stock split (the “Reverse Stock Split”) CAAH is in the process of completing in connection with its June 30, 2011 acquisition. We own approximately 15.5% of CAAH’s common stock without regard to the 1,538,223 shares of common stock we expect to receive after CAAH’s proposed Reverse Stock Split. CAAH issued the Convertible Note to us because the number of shares they agreed to pay us for these services exceeded its authorized shares of common stock at June 30, 2011. Accounts and notes receivables also reflects $500,000 of cash that CAAH agreed to pay us, in addition to the Convertible Note, for our services related to its June 30, 2011 acquisition.  The $500,000 of cash is payable to us when CAAH receives the proceeds under a note receivable that is due to CAAH on December 31, 2011.  We determined the fair value of the Convertible Note by multiplying the number of shares issuable upon conversion of the Convertible Note prior to giving effect to the Reverse Stock Split by the closing price of CAAH’s common stock on June 30, 2011. We recognized revenue of $11,575,206 at June 30, 2011 in connection with these services.

On December 31, 2010, we received a total of 4,740,694 shares of China Education International, Inc. (“CEII”), formerly known as USChina Channel, Inc. common stock as the stock-based payment for consulting services we provided to CEII in connection with CEII’s acquisition of China Education Schools, Ltd. In connection with this transaction, we also paid $170,000 to acquire 758,124 shares of CEII’s common stock in a private sale. We accounted for this class of securities as marketable securities available for sale. Pursuant to ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurement”, we used the quoted price for the CEII’s securities to value the shares of CEII’s common stock and recognized $4,977,728 or $1.05 per share as our consulting service revenue for the nine months ended June 30, 2011.

Invictus Advisory Services, Inc. (“Invictus”), CEII and our company entered into a Consulting and Management Agreement as of December 31, 2010 whereby we agreed to perform certain consulting and business advisory services for CEII, including advising CEII on financing matters, assistance with acquisitions, and coordination of SEC filings.  The term of the agreement is for one year, beginning January 1, 2011.  On February 15, 2011, Invictus transferred to us on behalf of CEII a total of 600,000 shares of CEII’s common stock previously issued to Invictus as payment for our services.  The 600,000 shares of CEII’s common stock we received were fully vested and non-forfeitable at the time of transfer and were valued at $1,800,000. We recognized revenue of $1,500,000 for the nine months ended June 30, 2011. The balance of deferred revenue was $300,000 as of June 30, 2011.
 
For the nine months ended June 30, 2011, the total fair value of CEII’s common stock we received for services was $6,477,729. We transferred shares of CEII’s common stock with a value of $283,500 to Animus Advisory Group, Inc. as a fee for its work for us in connection with work we performed for CEII. As of June 30, 2011, the aggregated carrying value of the CEII common stock was $17,486,454. The CEII common stock is quoted in the over the counter market system, but is restricted and cannot be readily sold by us absent a registration of those securities under the Securities Act of 1933 (the “Securities Act”) or the availability of an exemption from the registration requirements under the Securities Act. Our policy is to liquidate the securities we receive as compensation on a regular basis.  As these securities are often restricted, we are unable to liquidate them until the restriction is removed.  Unrealized gains or losses on marketable securities available for sale are recognized on a periodic basis as an element of comprehensive income based on changes in the fair value of the security. Once liquidated, realized gains or losses on the sale of marketable securities available for sale and marketable securities available for sale-related party are reflected in our net income for the period in which the security was liquidated.

The investments in marketable securities available for sale-related party totaled $436,267 and $672,735 at June 30, 2011 and September 30, 2010, respectively and are comprised solely of the securities of Dragon Capital Group Corp. (“Dragon Capital”).  Mr. Lisheng (Lawrence) Wang, the CEO and Chairman of the Board of Dragon Capital, is the brother of Dr. James Wang, our CEO and Chairman of the Board of Directors. These securities were issued by Dragon Capital as compensation for consulting services.  Dragon Capital is a non-reporting company whose securities are quoted on the OTC Pink Tier of the OTC Markets Group.  As such, under Federal securities laws, securities of Dragon Capital generally cannot be resold by us absent a registration of those securities under the Securities Act.

For the fiscal year ended September 30, 2010, prepayments to vendors for merchandise that had not yet been shipped or services that had not been performed included $2,546,278 non-trade related prepaid expenses.  We reclassified the amount to prepaid expenses to better reflect the nature of the item. Prepaid expenses as of June 30, 2011 also include a prepayment for Baotou Changxin Magnesium land use rights. Baotou Changxin Magnesium owns and operates a magnesium facility capable of producing 20,000 metric tons of pure magnesium per year located on approximately 406,000 square feet of land located in the Shiguai district of Baotou city, in Inner Mongolia. Baotou Changxin Magnesium occupies this land pursuant to an asset acquisition agreement entered into with Baotou Sanhe Magnesium Co., Ltd. to acquire the land use rights for this property, among other assets.  Since the land use right has yet to be transferred from Baotou Sanhe Magnesium Co. to Baotou Changxin Magnesium, the land use right balance of $1,126,870 is included in prepaid expenses.  The land use right expires in May 2045.

NOTE 9 - PROPERTY USE RIGHTS

For the nine months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, amortization expense of the property use rights totaled $54,659 and $31,974, respectively. Property use rights, net of accumulated amortization, consisting of mining and property use rights, amounted to $2,229,511 and $1,970,585 at June 30, 2011 and September 30, 2010, respectively. During the nine months ended June 30, 2011, our subsidiary Shanxi Gu County Golden Magnesium Industry Co., Ltd. (“Golden Magnesium”) paid an additional $270,827 for governmental fees required to complete the transfer of the land use right to Golden Magnesium.

In connection with our acquisition of CDI Jixiang Metal Co., Ltd. (“CDI Jixiang”) in December 2007, we acquired mining rights to 51 acres of land located in the Yong shun Kaxi Lake Mining area of China.  In July 2009, CDI Jixiang Metal submitted an application to the Ministry of Land Resources of Yongshun County to begin the process of obtaining a 5-year renewal for these mining rights as the current lease expired in October 2009.  This application was approved by the Ministry of Land Resources of Yongshun County and was forward to the Ministry of Land Resources of Hunan Province with a recommendation that the application be approved.  During the review of the application by the Ministry of Land Resources of Hunan Province a discrepancy in the requested depth of the mine was noted as the depth requested by CDI Jixiang Metal depth was greater than the depth specified in the original permit. In December 2010, CDI Jixiang Metal acknowledged the discrepancy and requested that the application be considered using the previously approved mining depth.  In addition, during the Ministry of Land Resources of Hunan Province review, it was determined that CDI Jixiang’s application required submission of reports on mining reserves, mining development and utilization program, environmental geological assessment, and land reclamation plan. These reports were then submitted to the Ministry of Land Resources of Hunan Province and are awaiting approval by government appointed experts. Ministry of Land Resources of Hunan Province has advised CDI Jixiang Metal that a new mining permit will be issued once the reports are approved which are expected to approved in the next several months. Based on these circumstances, we believe that the mining rights will ultimately be renewed. Based on our periodic evaluation of our long-lived assets, we have concluded that none of the assets related to CDI Jixiang are impaired.

As a result, the removal of the restrictions on this cash and the repayment of this loan were completed within the second quarter of fiscal 2011.

NOTE 12 – CAPITAL STOCK

Preferred Stock and Related Dividends

We have 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $.0001, authorized, of which we designated 12,950 as our Series A Convertible Preferred Stock in February 2008.  At June 30, 2011 and September 30, 2010 there were 1,006 shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock outstanding. The Series A Convertible Preferred Stock has a stated value per share of $1,000, carries an 8% per annum dividend rate payable quarterly in arrears and is convertible into common stock at $1.80 per share after giving effect to a price reduction in connection with a December 30, 2010 offering of our securities. During the nine months ended June 30, 2011, we paid $60,390 of ordinary dividends in the form of 43,533 shares of our common stock. During the nine months ended June 30, 2010, we paid dividends of $60,304 in the form of 45,876 shares of our common stock and cash of $20,125. 
 
On February 11, 2008, we entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with accredited investors to sell 12,950 shares of our Series A Preferred Stock which was convertible into common stock at $7.00 per share. This class of preferred stock carries an embedded contingent beneficial conversion option that allows the conversion price to reset, contingent upon certain future transactional events. As of May 31, 2009, 1,006 shares of our Series A Preferred Stock were issued and outstanding. On June 15, 2009, we registered a direct offer of our common stock at $1.85 per share, and therefore as provided under the original Securities Purchase Agreement, we should have accounted for this conversion price reduction from $7.00 per share to $1.85 per share as additional intrinsic value beneficially extended to this class of stockholders during the 2009 transition when the first conversion price reset occurred. We made a determination that even if we retrospectively applied the adjustments to reflect such accounting changes to the prior periods, the net effect would be immaterial from both a quantitative and qualitative standpoint.

ASC 470-20 provides that upon the resolution of the contingency, a corresponding adjustment is required to account for and recognize the excess number of shares to be received multiplied by the stock price on the original commitment date as additional intrinsic economic benefits extended to this class of shareholders. Based on the facts and circumstances in our case, the re-measurement for this contingent beneficial conversion option amounted to $600,693, representing the remaining undiscounted portion of the net proceeds allocated to the outstanding 1,006 shares of Series A Preferred Stock in the original offer. As of December 31, 2010, we recorded a total discount of $600,693 to account for the additional intrinsic values for the outstanding 1,006 shares of Series A Preferred Stock, accreted the full amount immediately as this class of preferred stock does not have a stated redemption date or finite life, and recognized it as a one-time deemed dividend and a reduction to our retained earnings with a corresponding increase to additional paid-in capital.

Reclassification of Derivative Liabilities

As of June 30, 2011 the Series A Preferred stockholders held an aggregate of 143,750 common stock purchase warrants, which contained a downside ratchet provision, that would allow the exercise price of these warrants to reset, contingent upon certain future transactional events. The terms of these warrants provide that if we sell common stock at a price per share less than the then exercise price of the warrants then we are required to reduce the exercise price of those warrants to the lower price of the subsequent sale. On June 15, 2009, we registered a direct offering of our common stock, which reduced the exercise price of the 143,750 warrants to purchase our common stock from $8.00 to $1.85 per share. On December 30, 2010, we entered into an engagement letter with Rodman & Renshaw for the sale of our common stock at $1.80 per share, which again reset the exercise price of the aforementioned warrants from $1.85 to $1.80 per share.

ASC Topic 815 “Derivatives and Hedging” requires any warrant (or embedded feature) that is not indexed to an entity’s own stock to be classified as a derivative liability instead of part of the permanent equity, with changes in fair value to be recognized into the then current earnings. Even though we should have adopted EITF 07-05 (currently ASC 815-40), beginning on January 1, 2009, applicable to our financial statements, we made a determination that even if we retrospectively applied the adjustments to reflect such accounting changes to the prior periods, the net effect would be immaterial from both a quantitative and qualitative standpoint.

As of December 31, 2010, we reclassified the 143,750 common stock purchase warrants with the downside ratchet provision from additional paid-in capital of the permanent equity into derivative liabilities to reflect the cumulative accounting effects on our balance sheet, with the cumulative effects on changes in fair values of derivative liabilities recognized in the current period of our statement of operations. In conjunction with the re-measurements and reclassifications, we recognized $76,705 as a one-time deemed dividend and a reduction to retained earnings, and recorded a corresponding increase in additional paid-in capital, to reflect the increase in fair value of the 143,750 warrants for the reduction of their exercise price. We reclassified $171,278 to derivative liabilities from additional paid-in capital on our balance sheet, and recorded a net amount of $104,305 as an unrealized gain into our current earnings to reflect the cumulative effects on changes in fair value of derivative liabilities.

As of December 31, 2010, the carrying amount of $66,973 reflected the then current fair value of the derivative liabilities.  The fair value of the derivative liabilities of $11,811 was reclassified to additional paid-in capital on June 30, 2011 as the expected term of the warrants expired.

The gross proceeds of this offering were $4,000,003 with offering expense of $228,501. We received the net proceeds of $3,771,502 on January 4, 2011. The warrants that are deemed as indexed to our own stock pursuant to ASC 815 have an exercise price of $2.00 per share and become exercisable beginning 183 days following the date they were issued for a period ending on the fifth anniversary of the initial exercise date. We are using the proceeds from this offering for general working capital purposes.

Common Stock Purchase Warrants

In connection with our December 30, 2010 offering of our securities, we issued common stock purchase warrants (the “Warrants”) to purchase up to 777,778 shares of our common stock upon closing of the offering which occurred on January 4, 2011.

The Warrants are exercisable beginning six months after the issuance date at an exercise price of $2.00 per share until July 4, 2016. The Warrants may become exercisable on a cashless basis if we fail to maintain the effectiveness of our registration statement.  The exercise price and number of shares issuable upon exercise are subject to adjustment in the event of stock splits or dividends, business combinations, rights offerings, sale of assets or other similar transactions.  The Warrants are not exercisable to the extent that (a) the number of shares of our common stock beneficially owned by the holder, and (b) the number of shares of our common stock issuable upon the exercise of the Warrants would result in the beneficial ownership by the holder of more than 4.99% of our then outstanding common stock. This ownership limitation can be increased to 9.99% by the holder upon 61 days notice to us.
 
A summary of the status of our outstanding common stock purchase warrants granted as of June 30, 2011 and changes during the period is as follows:
