ITEM 1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS Back to Table of Contents
Some of the statements contained in this registration statement on Form 10 of Ecomat, Inc. (hereinafter the "Company", "We" or the "Registrant") discuss future expectations, contain projections of our plan of operation or financial condition or state other forward-looking information. In this registration statement, forward-looking statements are generally identified by the words such as "anticipate", "plan", "believe", "expect", "estimate", and the like. Forward-looking statements involve future risks and uncertainties, there are factors that could cause actual results or plans to differ materially from those expressed or implied. These statements are subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties, and other factors that could cause the actual results to differ materially from those contemplated by the statements. The forward-looking information is based on various factors and is derived using numerous assumptions. A reader, whether investing in the Company's securities or not, should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which apply only as of the date of this Registration Statement. Important factors that may cause actual results to differ from projections include, for example:
the success or failure of Management's efforts to implement the
Registrant's plan of operation;
the ability of the Registrant to fund its operating expenses;
t
he ability of the Registrant to compete with other companies that
have a similar plan of operation;
the effect of changing economic conditions impacting our plan of
operation;
the ability of the Registrant to meet the other risks as may be described
in future filings with the SEC.
General Background of the Registrant
Ecomat, Inc. (the "Company" or "Ecomat") is a Nevada corporation that was formed to develop the Ecomat concept - an environmentally sound solution to the current standard dry cleaning method that utilizes percloroethylene, which has been shown to have various toxic effects. The Company was incorporated on December 14, 1995 pursuant to the laws of the State of Delaware.
On February 9, 2007, the Company completed its change in domicile to Nevada.
On March 26, 1999, the Company filed a petition under Chapter 7 for liquidation of the Company's business. As a result of which all of our properties were transferred to a United States Trustee and the Company terminated all of its business operations. The Bankruptcy Trustee has disposed of all of the assets.
In May 18, 2006, the Trustee for the Company and Park Avenue Group, Inc. entered into a contract that was subject to Bankruptcy Court approval for the sale of certain asset free and clear of all liens, claims and encumbrances, the asset being comprised of the corporate shell of the debtor, Ecomat, Inc. (the "Asset"). On June 14, 2006, the Bankruptcy Court granted an order approving the contract and finding that Park Avenue Group is a good faith purchaser within the meaning of 11 USC Section 363(m) of the Bankruptcy Code.
In connection with the Order of the U.S. Bankruptcy Court, the Court authorized (i) that the existing officers and directors of Ecomat, Inc. will be deemed removed from office and their official capacity terminated; (ii) that all common share conversion rights of any kind, including, but not limited to, warrants, options, convertible bonds, other convertible debt instruments, and convertible preferred stock shall be canceled and extinguished; and (iii) Park Avenue Group, Inc. shall be authorized to appoint a new board of directors of Ecomat.
On June 15, 2006 and as a result of the Bankruptcy Court Order, Park Avenue Group appointed Ivo Heiden to the board of directors of the Registrant and to serve as its sole executive officer (the "Management"). Mr. Heiden was an analyst for Park Avenue Group from 2003 until 2008 and has no ongoing relationship with such entity.

Business Objectives of the Company
Since the Chapter 7 proceedings, the Registrant had no business operations. Management has determined to direct its efforts and limited resources to pursue potential new business opportunities. The Registrant does not intend to limit itself to a particular industry and has not established any particular criteria upon which it shall consider a business opportunity.
The Registrant's common stock is subject to quotation on the OTC Pink Sheets under the symbol ECMT. There is currently only a limited trading market in the Registrant's shares nor do we believe that any active trading market has existed for the last 3 years. There can be no assurance that there will be an active trading market for our securities following the effective date of this registration statement under the Exchange Act. In the event that an active trading market commences, there can be no assurance as to the market price of our shares of common stock, whether any trading market will provide liquidity to investors, or whether any trading market will be sustained.
Management would have substantial flexibility in identifying and selecting a prospective new business opportunity. The Registrant is dependent on the judgment of its Management in connection with this process. In evaluating a prospective business opportunity, we would consider, among other factors, the following:
costs
associated with pursuing a new business opportunity;
growth potential of the new
business opportunity;
experiences, skills and availability of additional personnel
necessary to pursue a potential new business opportunity;
necessary capital
requirements;
the competitive position of the new business opportunity;
stage of
business development;
the market acceptance of the potential products and services;
proprietary features and degree of intellectual property; and
the regulatory
environment that may be applicable to any prospective business opportunity.
The foregoing criteria are not intended to be exhaustive and there may be other criteria that Management may deem relevant. In connection with an evaluation of a prospective or potential business opportunity, Management may be expected to conduct a due diligence review.
The time and costs required to pursue new business opportunities, which includes negotiating and documenting relevant agreements and preparing requisite documents for filing pursuant to applicable securities laws, can not be ascertained with any degree of certainty.
Management intends to devote such time as it deems necessary to carry out the Registrant's affairs. The exact length of time required for the pursuit of any new potential business opportunities is uncertain. No assurance can be made that we will be successful in our efforts. We cannot project the amount of time that our Management will actually devote to the Registrant's plan of operation.
The Registrant intends to conduct its activities so as to avoid being classified as an "Investment Company" under the Investment Company Act of 1940, and therefore avoid application of the costly and restrictive registration and other provisions of the Investment Company Act of 1940 and the regulations promulgated thereunder.
Registrant is a Blank Check Company
At present, the Registrant is a development stage company with no revenues, no assets and no specific business plan or purpose. The Registrant's business plan is to seek new business opportunities or to engage in a merger or acquisition with an unidentified company. As a result, the Registrant is a "blank check company" and, as a result, any offerings of the Registrant's securities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act") must comply with Rule 419 promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") under the Act. The Registrant's Common Stock is a "penny stock," as defined in Rule 3a51-1 promulgated by the SEC under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act"). The Penny Stock rules require a broker-dealer, prior to a transaction in penny stock not otherwise exempt from the rules, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document that provides information about Penny Stocks and the nature and level of risks in the penny stock market.
Page 4
The broker-dealer also must provide the customer with current bid and offer quotations for the penny stock, the compensation of the broker-dealer and its sales person in the transaction, and monthly account statements showing the market value of each Penny Stock held in the customer's account. In addition, the Penny Stock rules require that the broker-dealer, not otherwise exempt from such rules, must make a special written determination that the Penny Stock is suitable for the purchaser and receive the purchaser's written agreement to the transaction. These disclosure rules have the effect of reducing the level of trading activity in the secondary market for a stock that becomes subject to the Penny Stock rules. So long as the common stock of the Registrant is subject to the Penny Stock rules, it may be more difficult to sell the Registrant's common stock.
We are a Shell Company as defined in Rule 405 promulgated by the SEC under the Securities Act. A Shell Company is one that has no or nominal operations and either: (i) no or nominal assets; or (ii) assets consisting primarily of cash or cash equivalents. As a Shell Company, we are restricted in our use of Registrations on Form S-8 under the Securities Act; the lack of availability of the use of Rule 144 by security holders; and the lack of liquidity in our stock.
Form S-8
Shell companies are prohibited from using Form S-8 to register securities under the Securities Act. If a company ceases to be a Shell Company, it may use Form S-8 sixty calendar days, provided it has filed all reports and other materials required to be filed under the Exchange Act during the preceding 12 months (or for such shorter period that it has been required to file such reports and materials after the company files "Form 10 information," which is information that a company would be required to file in a registration statement on Form 10 if it were registering a class of securities under Section 12 of the Exchange Act. This information would normally be reported on a current report on Form 8-K reporting the completion of a transaction that caused the company to cease being a Shell Company.
Unavailability of Rule 144 for Resale
Rule 144(i) "Unavailability to Securities of Issuers With No or Nominal Operations and No or Nominal Non-Cash Assets" provides that Rule 144 is not available for the resale of securities initially issued by an issuer that is a Shell Company. We have identified our company as a Shell Company and, therefore, the holders of our securities may not rely on Rule 144 to have the restriction removed from their securities without registration or until the company is no longer identified as a Shell Company.
As a result of our classification as a Shell Company, our investors are not allowed to rely on the "safe harbor" provisions of Rule 144, promulgated pursuant to the Securities Act, so as not to be considered underwriters in connection with the sale of our securities until one year from the date that we cease to be a Shell Company. This will likely make it more difficult for us to attract additional capital through subsequent unregistered offerings because purchasers of securities in such unregistered offerings will not be able to resell their securities in reliance on Rule 144, a safe harbor on which holders of restricted securities usually rely to resell securities.
Very Limited Liquidity of our Common Stock
Our common stock trades from time to time on the OTC Pink Sheet Market but there is no active market maker in our common stock. As a result, there is only limited liquidity in our common stock. We plan to seek quotation of our common stock on the OTCQB Market. In order for our common stock to become subject to quotation on the OTCQB Market, we must obtain a market maker to file an application with the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA) on our behalf pursuant to Rule 15c2-11 under the Exchange Act. If we fail to continue to comply with the listing requirements of the OTCQB Market, the price of our common stock and the ability of our stockholders to to access the capital markets could be negatively impacted. We cannot provide any assurance that we will be able to continue to satisfy the requirements of the OTCQB Markets for continued quotation.
We will be deemed a blank check company under Rule 419 of the Securities Act
The provisions of Rule 419 apply to registration statements filed under the Securities Act by a blank check company, such as the Company. Rule 419 requires that a blank check company filing a registration statement deposit the securities being offered and proceeds of the offering into an escrow or trust account pending the execution of an agreement for an acquisition or merger.
Page 5
In addition, an issuer is required to file a post-effective amendment to the registration statement upon the execution of an agreement for such acquisition or merger. The rule provides procedures for the release of the offering funds in conjunction with the post effective acquisition or merger. The obligations to file post-effective amendments are in addition to the obligations to file Forms 8-K to report for both the entry into a material definitive (non-ordinary course of business) agreement and the completion of the transaction. Rule 419 applies to both primary and re-sale or secondary offerings.
Within five (5) days of filing a post-effective amendment setting forth the proposed terms of an acquisition, the Company must notify each investor whose shares are in escrow. Each investor then has no fewer than 20 and no greater than 45 business days to notify the Company in writing if they elect to remain an investor. A failure to reply indicates that the person has elected to not remain an investor. As all investors are allotted this second opportunity to determine to remain an investor, acquisition agreements should be conditioned upon enough funds remaining in escrow to close the transaction.
Effecting a business combination
Prospective investors in the Company's common stock will not have an opportunity to evaluate the specific merits or risks of any of the one or more business combinations that we may undertake A business combination may involve the acquisition of, or merger with, a company which needs to raise substantial additional capital by means of being a publicly trading company, while avoiding what it may deem to be adverse consequences of undertaking a public offering itself. These include time delays, significant expense, loss of voting control and compliance with various Federal and state securities laws. A business combination may involve a company which may be financially unstable or in its early stages of development or growth.
The Registrant has not identified a target business or target industry
The Company's effort in identifying a prospective target business will not be limited to a particular industry and the Company may ultimately acquire a business in any industry Management deems appropriate. To date, the Company has not selected any target business on which to concentrate our search for a business combination. While the Company intends to focus on target businesses in the United States, it is not limited to U.S. entities and may consummate a business combination with a target business outside of the United States. Accordingly, there is no basis for investors in the Company's common stock to evaluate the possible merits or risks of the target business or the particular industry in which we may ultimately operate. To the extent we effect a business combination with a financially unstable company or an entity in its early stage of development or growth, including entities without established records of sales or earnings, we may be affected by numerous risks inherent in the business and operations of financially unstable and early stage or potential emerging growth companies. In addition, to the extent that we effect a business combination with an entity in an industry characterized by a high level of risk, we may be affected by the currently unascertainable risks of that industry. An extremely high level of risk frequently characterizes many industries which experience rapid growth. In addition, although the Company's Management will endeavor to evaluate the risks inherent in a particular industry or target business, we cannot assure you that we will properly ascertain or assess all significant risk factors.
Sources of target businesses
Our Management anticipates that target business candidates will be brought to our attention from various unaffiliated sources, including securities broker-dealers, investment bankers, venture capitalists, bankers and other members of the financial community, who may present solicited or unsolicited proposals. Our Management may also bring to our attention target business candidates. While we do not presently anticipate engaging the services of professional firms that specialize in business acquisitions on any formal basis, we may engage these firms in the future, in which event we may pay a finder's fee or other compensation in connection with a business combination. In no event, however, will we pay Management any finder's fee or other compensation for services rendered to us prior to or in connection with the consummation of a business combination.
Page 6
Selection of a target business and structuring of a business combination
Management owns 78.58% of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock and will have broad flexibility in identifying and selecting a prospective target business. In evaluating a prospective target business, our Management will consider, among other factors, the following:
financial condition and results of operation of
the target company;
These criteria are not intended to be exhaustive. Any evaluation relating to the merits of a particular business combination will be based, to the extent relevant, on the above factors as well as other considerations deemed relevant by our Management in effecting a business combination consistent with our business objective. In evaluating a prospective target business, we will conduct a due diligence review which will encompass, among other things, meetings with incumbent Management and inspection of facilities, as well as review of financial and other information which will be made available to us.
We will endeavor to structure a business combination so as to achieve the most favorable tax treatment to us, the target business and both companies' stockholders. However, there can be no assurance that the Internal Revenue Service or applicable state tax authorities will necessarily agree with the tax treatment of any business combination we consummate.
The time and costs required to select and evaluate a target business and to structure and complete the business combination cannot presently be ascertained with any degree of certainty. Any costs incurred with respect to the identification and evaluation of a prospective target business with which a business combination is not ultimately completed will result in a loss to us.
Probable lack of business diversification
While we may seek to effect business combinations with more than one target business, it is more probable that we will only have the ability to effect a single business combination, if at all. Accordingly, the prospects for our success may be entirely dependent upon the future performance of a single business. Unlike other entities which may have the resources to complete several business combinations with entities operating in multiple industries or multiple areas of a single industry, it is probable that we will lack the resources to diversify our operations or benefit from the possible spreading of risks or offsetting of losses. By consummating a business combination with only a single entity, our lack of diversification may:
subject us to numerous economic, competitive and regulatory developments, any or
all of which may have a substantial adverse impact upon the particular industry in which
we may operate subsequent to a business combination, and
result in our
dependency upon the development or market acceptance of a single or limited number of
products, processes or services.
Limited ability to evaluate the target business' Management
Although we intend to
closely scrutinize the Management of a prospective target business when evaluating the
desirability of effecting a business combination, we cannot assure you that our assessment
of the target business' Management will prove to be correct. In addition, we cannot assure
you that the future Management will have the necessary skills, qualifications or abilities
to manage a public company intending to embark on a program of business development.
Furthermore, the future role of our director, if any, in the target business cannot
presently be stated with any certainty.
Page 7
While it is possible that our director will remain
associated in some capacity with us following a business combination, it is unlikely that
he will devote his full efforts to our affairs subsequent to a business combination.
Moreover, we cannot assure you that our director will have significant experience or
knowledge relating to the operations of the particular target business.
Following a business combination, we may seek to recruit additional managers to supplement the incumbent Management of the target business. We cannot assure you that we will have the ability to recruit additional managers, or that additional managers will have the requisite skills, knowledge or experience necessary to enhance the incumbent Management.
Our auditors have expressed substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern
Our audited financial statements for the years ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, were prepared using the assumption that we will continue our operations as a going concern. Our independent accountants in their audit report have expressed substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our operations are dependent on our ability to raise sufficient capital or complete business combination as a result of which we become profitable. Our financial statements do not include any adjustments that may result from the outcome of this uncertainty. There is not enough cash on hand to fund our administrative expenses and operating expenses for the next twelve months. Therefore, we may be unable to continue operations in the future as a going concern. If we cannot continue as a viable entity, our stockholders may lose some or all of their investment in the Company's shares of common stock.
Competition
In identifying, evaluating and selecting a target business, we expect to encounter intense competition from other entities having a business objective similar to ours. Many of these entities are well established and have extensive experience identifying and effecting business combinations, either directly or through affiliates. Many if not virtually most of these competitors possess far greater financial, human and other resources compared to our resources. While we believe that there are numerous potential target businesses that we may identify, our ability to compete in acquiring certain of the more desirable target businesses will be limited by our limited financial and human resources. Our inherent competitive limitations are expected by Management to give others an advantage in pursuing the acquisition of a target business that we may identify and seek to pursue. Further, any of these limitations may place us at a competitive disadvantage in successfully negotiating a business combination. Our Management believes, however, that our status as a reporting public entity with potential access to the United States public equity markets may give us a competitive advantage over certain privately-held entities having a similar business objective in acquiring a desirable target business with growth potential on favorable terms.
If we succeed in effecting a business combination, there will be, in all likelihood, intense competition from existing competitors of the business we acquire. In particular, certain industries which experience rapid growth frequently attract an increasingly larger number of competitors, including those with far greater financial, marketing, technical and other resources than the initial competitors in the industry in which we seek to operate. The degree of competition characterizing the industry of any prospective target business cannot presently be ascertained. We cannot assure you that, subsequent to a business combination, we will have the resources to compete effectively, especially to the extent that the target business is in a high-growth industry.
Employees
Mr. Heiden, our CEO and CFO, is our sole executive officer. Mr. Heiden is not obligated to devote any specific number of hours per week and, in fact, intends to devote only as much time as he deem reasonably necessary to administer the Company's affairs until such time as a business combination is consummated. The amount of time he will devote in any time period will vary based on the availability of suitable target businesses to investigate. We do not intend to have any full-time employees prior to the consummation of a business combination.
Page 8
Conflicts of Interest
The Company's Management is not required to commit its full time to the Company's affairs. As a result, pursuing new business opportunities may require a longer period of time than if Management would devote full time to the Company's affairs. Management is not precluded from serving as an officer or director of any other entity that is engaged in business activities similar to those of the Registrant. Management has not identified and is not currently negotiating a new business opportunity for us. In the future, Management may become associated or affiliated with entities engaged in business activities similar to those we intend to conduct. In such event, Management may have conflicts of interest in determining to which entity a particular business opportunity should be presented. In the event that the Company's Management has multiple business affiliations, our Management may have legal obligations to present certain business opportunities to multiple entities. In the event that a conflict of interest shall arise, Management will consider factors such as reporting status, availability of audited financial statements, current capitalization and the laws of jurisdictions. If several business opportunities or operating entities approach Management with respect to a business combination, Management will consider the foregoing factors as well as the preferences of the Management of the operating company. However, Management will act in what it believes will be in the best interests of the shareholders of the Registrant. The Registrant shall not enter into a transaction with a target business that is affiliated with Management.
ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS Back to Table of Contents
Forward-Looking Statements
This registration statement on Form 10 contains forward-looking statements that are based on current expectations, estimates, forecasts and projections about us, our future performance, the market in which we operate, our beliefs and our Management's assumptions. In addition, other written or oral statements that constitute forward-looking statements may be made by us or on our behalf. Words such as "expects", "anticipates", "targets", "goals", "projects", "intends", "plans", "believes", "seeks", "estimates", variations of such words and similar expressions are intended to identify such forward-looking statements. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve certain risks, uncertainties and assumptions that are difficult to predict or assess. Therefore, actual outcomes and results may differ materially from what is expressed or forecast in such forward-looking statements.
Any investment in our shares of common stock involves a high degree of risk. You should carefully consider the following information about these risks, together with the other information contained in this annual report before you decide to invest in our common stock. Each of the following risks may materially and adversely affect our business objective, plan of operation and financial condition. These risks may cause the market price of our common stock to decline, which may cause you to lose all or a part of the money you invested in our common stock. We provide the following cautionary discussion of risks, uncertainties and possible inaccurate assumptions relevant to our business plan. In addition to other information included in this annual report, the following factors should be considered in evaluating the Company's business and future prospects.
The Company has a limited operating history and very limited resources.
Since emerging from bankruptcy, the Company's operations have been limited to seeking a potential business combination and has had no revenues from operations. Investors will have no basis upon which to evaluate the Company's ability to achieve the Company's business objective, which is to effect a merger, capital stock exchange and/or acquire an operating business. The Company will not generate any revenues until, at the earliest, after the consummation of a business combination or acquiring an operating business.
Our auditors have expressed substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.
As of June 30, 2017, we had no cash and cash equivalents and an accumulated deficit of $12,732. Our audited financial statements for the years ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, were prepared using the assumption that we will continue our operations as a going concern. Our independent accountants in their audit report have expressed substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our operations are dependent on our ability to raise sufficient capital or complete business combination as a result of which we become profitable. Our financial statements do not include any adjustments that may result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
Page 9
There is not enough cash on hand to fund our administrative expenses and operating expenses for the next twelve months. Therefore, we may be unable to continue operations in the future as a going concern. If we cannot continue as a viable entity, our stockholders may lose some or all of their investment in the Company's shares of common stock.
Since the Company has not yet selected a particular target industry or target business with which to complete a business combination, the Company is unable to ascertain the merits or risks associated with any particular business or industry.
Since the Company has not yet identified a particular industry or prospective target business, there is no basis for investors to evaluate the possible merits or risks of the target business which the Company may ultimately acquire. If the Company completes a business combination with a financially unstable company or an entity in its development stage, the Company may be affected by numerous risks inherent in the operations of those entities. Although the Company's Management intents to evaluate the risks inherent in a particular industry or target business, the Company cannot assure you that it will properly ascertain or assess all of the significant risk factors. There can be no assurance that any prospective business combination will benefit shareholders or prove to be more favorable to shareholders than any other investment that may be made by shareholders and investors.
Unspecified and unascertainable risks
There is no basis for shareholders to evaluate the possible merits or risks of potential business combination. To the extent that the Company effects a business combination with a financially unstable operating company or an entity that is in its early stage of development or growth, the Company will become subject to numerous risks. If the Company effects a business combination with an entity in a high risk industry, the Company will become subject to the currently unascertainable risks of that industry. Although Management will endeavor to evaluate the risks inherent in a particular business or industry, there can be no assurance that Management will properly ascertain or assess all such risks that the Company perceived at the time of the consummation of a business combination.
It is likely that the Company's current sole officer and director will resign upon consummation of a business combination and the Company will have only limited ability to evaluate the Management of the target business.
The Company's ability to successfully effect a business combination will be dependent upon the efforts of the Company's Management. The future role of Management in the target business cannot presently be ascertained. Although it is possible that Management may remain associated with the target business following a business combination, it is likely that the Management of the target business will remain in place. Although the Company intends to closely scrutinize the management of a target business in connection with evaluating the desirability of effecting a business combination, the Company cannot assure you that the Company's assessment of Management will prove to be correct.
Dependence on key personnel
The Company is dependent upon the continued services of Management. To the extent that his services become unavailable, the Company will be required to obtain other qualified personnel and there can be no assurance that it will be able to recruit qualified persons upon acceptable terms.
The Company's sole officer and director may allocate his time to other businesses activities, thereby causing conflicts of interest as to how much time to devote to the Company's affairs. This could have a negative impact on the Company's ability to consummate a business combination in a timely manner, if at all.
The Company's officer and director is not required to commit his full time to the Company's affairs, which may result in a conflict of interest in allocating his time between the Company's business and other businesses. The Company does not intend to have any full time employees prior to the consummation of a business combination. Management of the Company is engaged in other business endeavors and is not obligated to contribute any specific number of his hours per week to the Company's affairs. Mr. Heiden owes fiduciary duty to Baltic Capital Corp. of which he is the sole officer and director. Baltic Capital Corp. is a private corporation engaged in the business of providing corporate securities compliance services. Mr. Heiden was an analyst for Park Avenue Group from 2003 until 2008 and has no ongoing relationship with such entity.
Page 10
If Management's other business affairs require him to devote more time to such affairs, it could limit his ability to devote time to the Company's affairs and could have a negative impact on the Company's ability to consummate a business combination. Furthermore, we do not have an employment agreement with Mr. Heiden. Mr. Heiden has no formal obligation or commitment to provide any particular amount of time to the Company's affairs.
The Company may be unable to obtain additional financing, if and when required, to complete a business combination or to fund the operations and growth of the business combination target, which could compel the Company to restructure a potential business combination transaction or to entirely abandon a particular business combination.
The Company has not yet identified any prospective target business. If we require funds for a particular business combination, because of the size of the business combination or otherwise, we will be required to seek additional financing, which may or may not be available a terms and conditions satisfactory to the Company, if at all. To the extent that additional financing proves to be unavailable when and if needed to consummate a particular business combination, we would be compelled to restructure the transaction or abandon that particular business combination and seek an alternative target business candidate. In addition, if we consummate a business combination, we may require additional financing to fund the operations or growth of the target business. The failure to secure additional financing could have a material adverse effect on the continued development or growth of the target business. The Company's officer, director or stockholders are not required to provide any financing to us in connection with or after a business combination.
It is probable that the Company will only be able to enter into one business combination, which will cause us to be solely dependent on such single business and a limited number of products or services.
It is probable that the Company will enter into a business combination with a single operating business. Accordingly, the prospects for the Company's success may be:
solely
dependent upon the performance of a single operating business, or
dependent upon the
development or market acceptance of a single or limited number of products or services.
In this case, the Company will not be able to diversify the Company's operations or benefit from the possible spreading of risks or offsetting of losses, unlike other entities which may have the resources to complete several business combinations in different industries or different areas of a single industry.
The Company has limited resources and there is significant competition for business combination opportunities. Therefore, the Company may not be able to enter into or consummate an attractive business combination.
The Company expects to encounter intense competition from other entities having a business objective similar to the Company's, including venture capital funds, leveraged buyout funds and operating businesses competing for acquisitions. Many of these entities are well established and have extensive experience in identifying and effecting business combinations directly or through affiliates. Many of these competitors possess greater technical, human and other resources than the Company does and the Company's financial resources are limited when contrasted with those of many of these competitors. While the Company believes that there are numerous potential target businesses that it could acquire, the Company's ability to compete in acquiring certain sizable target businesses will be limited by the Company's limited financial resources and the fact that the Company will use its common stock to acquire an operating business. This inherent competitive limitation gives others an advantage in pursuing the acquisition of certain target businesses.
The Company may be unable to obtain additional financing, if required, to complete a business combination or to fund the operations and growth of the target business, which could compel the Company to restructure a potential business transaction or abandon a particular business combination.
We may be required to seek additional financing. We cannot assure you that such financing would be available on acceptable terms, if at all. If additional financing proves to be unavailable, we would be compelled to restructure the transaction or abandon that particular business combination and seek an alternative target business. In addition, if we consummate a business combination, we may require additional financing to fund the operations or growth of the target business. The failure to secure additional financing could have a material adverse effect on the continued development or growth of the target business.

Financing requirements to fund operations associated with reporting obligations under the Exchange Act.
The Company has no revenues and is dependent upon the willingness of the Company's Management to fund the costs associated with the reporting obligations under the Exchange Act, other administrative costs associated with the Company's corporate existence and expenses related to the Company's business objective. The Company is not likely to generate any revenues until the consummation of a business combination, at the earliest. The Company believes that it will have available sufficient financial resources available from its Management to continue to pay accounting and other professional fees and other miscellaneous expenses that may be required until the Company commences business operations following a business combination.
We are dependent upon interim funding provided by Management or an affiliated party to pay professional fees and expenses. Our Management has provided funding, without formal agreement, as has been required to pay for accounting fees and other administrative expenses of the Company.
The Company does not currently engage in any business activities that provide cash flow. The costs of investigating and analyzing potential business combination candidates and preparing and filing Exchange Act reports for what may be an unlimited period of time will be paid by our sole officer and director, or an affiliated party notwithstanding the fact that there is no written agreement to pay such costs. Mr. Heiden and/or an affiliated party have informally agreed to pay the Company's expenses in the form of advances at an imputed interest rate of 8% . The Company intents to repay these advances when it has the cash resources to do so.
Based on Mr. Heiden's resource commitment to fund our operations , we believe that we will be able to continue as a going concern until such time as we conclude a business combination . During the next 12 months we anticipate incurring costs related to:
filing of Exchange Act reports.
franchise fees, registered agent fees and accounting fees, and
investigating, analyzing and consummating an acquisition or business
combination.
We estimate that these costs will range from five to six thousand dollars per year, and that we will be able to meet these costs as necessary through loans/advances from Management or affiliated parties until we enter into a business combination.
The Company's sole officer and director has a 78.58% equity interest in the Company and thus is in a position to influence certain actions requiring stockholder vote.
Management has no present intention to call for an annual meeting of stockholders to elect new directors prior to the consummation of a business combination. As a result, our current director will continue in office at least until the consummation of the business combination. If there is an annual meeting of stockholders for any reason, the Company's Management has broad discretion regarding proposals submitted to a vote by shareholders as a consequence of Management's significant equity interest. Accordingly, the Company's Management will continue to exert substantial control at least until the consummation of a business combination.
Broad discretion of Management
Any person who invests in the Company's common stock will do so without an opportunity to evaluate the specific merits or risks of any prospective business combination. As a result, investors will be entirely dependent on the broad discretion and judgment of Management in connection with the selection of a prospective business combination. There can be no assurance that determinations made by the Company's Management will permit us to achieve the Company's business objectives.
Page 12
Reporting requirements may delay or preclude a business combination
Pursuant to the requirements of Section 13 of the Exchange Act, the Company is required to provide certain information about significant acquisitions and other material events. The Company will continue to be required to file quarterly reports on Form 10-Q and annual reports on Form 10-K, which annual report must contain the Company's audited financial statements. As a reporting company under the Exchange Act, following any business combination, we will be required to file a report on Form 8-K, which report contains audited financial statements of the acquired entity. These audited financial statements must be filed with the SEC within 5 days following the closing of a business combination. While obtaining audited financial statements is typically the responsibility of the acquired company, it is possible that a potential target company may be a non-reporting company with unaudited financial statements. The time and costs that may be incurred by some potential target companies to prepare such audited financial statements may significantly delay or may even preclude consummation of an otherwise desirable business combination. Acquisition prospects that do not have or are unable to obtain the required audited statements may not be appropriate for acquisition because we are subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act.
If the Company is deemed to be an investment company, the Company may be required to institute burdensome compliance requirements and the Company's activities may be restricted, which may make it difficult for the Company to enter into a business combination.
restrictions on the nature of the Company's investments; and
restrictions on the
issuance of securities, which may make it difficult for us to complete a business
combination.
In addition, we may have imposed upon us burdensome
requirements, including:
registration as an
investment company;
adoption of a specific
form of corporate structure; and
reporting, record
keeping, voting, proxy and disclosure requirements and other rules and regulations.
The Company does not believe that its anticipated principal activities will subject it to the Investment Company Act of 1940.
The Company may be deemed to have no "Independent Director", actions taken and expenses incurred by our officer and director on behalf of the Company will generally not be subject to "Independent Review".
Our director owns shares of our common stock and, although no compensation will be paid to him for services rendered prior to or in connection with a business combination, he may receive reimbursement for out-of-pocket expenses incurred by him in connection with activities on the Company's behalf such as identifying potential target businesses and performing due diligence on suitable business combinations. There is no limit on the amount of these out-of-pocket expenses and there will be no review of the reasonableness of the expenses by anyone other than our board of director, which consist of one directors who may seek reimbursement. If our director will not be deemed "independent," he will generally not have the benefit of independent director examining the propriety of expenses incurred on our behalf and subject to reimbursement. Although the Company believes that all actions taken by our director on the Company's behalf will be in the Company's best interests, the Company cannot assure the investor that this will actually be the case. If actions are taken, or expenses are incurred that are actually not in the Company's best interests, it could have a material adverse effect on our business and plan of operation and the price of our stock held by the public stockholders.
General Economic Risks.
The Company's current and future business objectives and plan of operation are likely dependent, in large part, on the state of the general economy. Adverse changes in economic conditions may adversely affect the Company's business objective and plan of operation. These conditions and other factors beyond the Company's control include also, but are not limited to regulatory changes.
Page 13
Risks Related to Our Common Stock
The Company's shares of common stock are traded from time to time on the OTC Pink Sheet Market.
Our common stock trades from time to time on the OTC Pink Sheet Market. As a result, there is only limited liquidity in our common stock. We plan to seek quotation of our common stock on the OTCQB Market. Quotation of the Company's securities on the OTCQB market limits the liquidity and price of the Company's common stock more than if the Company's shares of common stock were listed on the Nasdaq Stock Market or a national exchange. In order for our common stock to become subject to quotation on the OTCQB Market, we must obtain a market maker to file an application with the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA) on our behalf pursuant to Rule 15c2-11 under the Exchange Act. If we fail to continue to comply with the listing requirements of the OTCQB Market, the price of our common stock and the ability of our stockholders to to access the capital markets could be negatively impacted. We cannot provide any assurance that we will be able to continue to satisfy the requirements of the OTCQB Markets' for continued quotation. There can be no assurance that there will be a liquid trading market for the Company's common stock following a business combination. In the event that a liquid trading market commences, there can be no assurance as to the market price of the Company's shares of common stock, whether any trading market will provide liquidity to investors, or whether any trading market will be sustained.
Our common stock is subject to the Penny Stock Rules of the SEC and the trading market in our common stock is limited, which makes transactions in our stock cumbersome and may reduce the value of an investment in our common stock.
The Securities and Exchange Commission has adopted Rule 3a51-1 which establishes the definition of a "penny stock," for the purposes relevant to us, as any equity security that has a market price of less than $5.00 per share or with an exercise price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions. For any transaction involving a penny stock, unless exempt, Rule 15g-9 require:
that a broker or dealer approve a person's account for transactions in penny stocks; andIn order to approve a persons account for transactions in penny stocks, the broker or dealer must:
obtain financial
information and investment experience objectives of the person; and
make a reasonable
determination that the transactions in penny stocks are suitable for that person and the
person has sufficient knowledge and experience in financial matters to be capable of
evaluating the risks of transactions in penny stocks.
The broker or dealer must also deliver, prior to any transaction in a penny stock, a disclosure schedule prescribed by the SEC relating to the penny stock market, which, in highlight form:
sets forth the
basis on which the broker or dealer made the suitability determination; and
that the broker or
dealer received a signed, written agreement from the investor prior to the transaction.
Generally, brokers may be less willing to execute transactions in securities subject to the "penny stock" rules. This may make it more difficult for investors to dispose of our common stock and cause a decline in the market value of our stock.
Disclosure also has to be made about the risks of investing in penny stocks in both public offerings and in secondary trading and about the commissions payable to both the broker-dealer and the registered representative, current quotations for the securities and the rights and remedies available to an investor in cases of fraud in penny stock transactions. Finally, monthly statements have to be sent disclosing recent price information for the penny stock held in the account and information on the limited market in penny stocks.

State blue sky registration; potential limitations on resale of the Company's common stock
The holders of the Company's shares of common stock registered under the Exchange Act and those persons who desire to purchase them in any trading market that may develop in the future, should be aware that there may be state blue-sky law restrictions upon the ability of investors to resell the Company's securities. Accordingly, investors should consider the secondary market for the Registrant's securities to be a limited one.
It is the intention of the Registrant's Management following the consummation of a business combination to seek coverage and publication of information regarding the Registrant in an accepted publication manual which permits a manual exemption. The manual exemption permits a security to be distributed in a particular state without being registered if the Registrant issuing the security has a listing for that security in a securities manual recognized by the state. However, it is not enough for the security to be listed in a recognized manual. The listing entry must contain (1) the names of issuers, officers, and directors, (2) an issuer's balance sheet, and (3) a profit and loss statement for either the fiscal year preceding the balance sheet or for the most recent fiscal year of operations. Furthermore, the manual exemption is a nonissuer exemption restricted to secondary trading transactions, making it unavailable for issuers selling newly issued securities.
Most of the accepted manuals are those published by Standard and Poor's, Moody's Investor Service, Fitch's Investment Service, and Best's Insurance Reports, and many states expressly recognize these manuals. A smaller number of states declare that they "recognize securities manuals" but do not specify the recognized manuals. The following states do not have any provisions and therefore do not expressly recognize the manual exemption: Alabama, Georgia, Illinois, Kentucky, Louisiana, Montana, South Dakota, Tennessee, Vermont and Wisconsin.
Rule 144 Related Risks
The SEC adopted amendments to Rule 144 which became effective on February 15, 2008. These Rule 144 amendments apply to securities acquired both before and after that date. Generally, under the Rule 144 amendments, a person who has beneficially owned restricted shares for at least six months would be entitled to sell their securities provided that: (i) such person is not deemed to have been an affiliate at the time of, or at any time during the three months preceding, a sale; (ii) we are subject to and are current in the Exchange Act periodic reporting requirements for at least 90 days before the sale; and (iii) if the sale occurs prior to satisfaction of a one-year holding period, provided current information is available at the time of sale.
Persons who have beneficially owned restricted shares for at least six months but who are affiliates at the time of, or at any time during the three months preceding a sale, would be subject to additional restrictions, by which such person would be entitled to sell within any three-month period only a number of securities that does not exceed the greater of either of the following: (i) 1% of the total number of securities of the same class then outstanding; or (ii) the average weekly trading volume of such securities during the four calendar weeks preceding the filing of a notice on Form 144 with respect to the sale; provided, in each case, that we are subject to the Exchange Act periodic reporting requirements for at least three months before the sale. Such sales by affiliates must also comply with the manner of sale, current public information and notice provisions of Rule 144.
These Rule 144 related risks are subject to further restrictions in the event that the Exchange Act reporting company is deemed to be a Shell Company, such as the Registrant.
Restrictions on the Reliance of Rule 144 by Shell Companies or Former Shell Companies
Historically, the SEC staff has taken the position that Rule 144 is not available for the resale of securities initially issued by companies that are, or previously were, blank check companies, like us. The SEC has codified and expanded this position in the amendments discussed above by prohibiting the use of Rule 144 for resale of securities issued by any shell companies (other than business combination related shell companies) or any issuer that has been at any time previously a shell company. The SEC has provided an important exception to this prohibition, however, if the following conditions are met:
Page 15
- The issuer of
the securities that was formerly a shell company has ceased to be a
shell company;
- The issuer of
the securities is subject to the reporting requirements of
Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act;
- The issuer of
the securities has filed all Exchange Act reports and material
required to be filed, as applicable, during the preceding 12 months
(or such shorter period that the issuer was required to file such
reports and materials), other than Current Reports on Form 8-K; and
-At least one
year has elapsed from the time that the issuer filed current
comprehensive disclosure with the SEC reflecting its status as an
entity that is not a shell company.
As a result, it is likely that pursuant to Rule 144, stockholders who receive our restricted securities in a business combination will not be able to sell our shares without registration until one year after we have completed our initial business combination.
Rule 145 Related Risk
Under the new amendments, affiliates of a target company who receive registered shares in a Rule 145 business combination transaction, and who do not become affiliates of the acquirer, will be able to immediately resell the securities received by them into the public markets without registration (except for affiliates of a shell company as discussed in the following section). However, those persons who are affiliates of the acquirer, and those who become affiliates of the acquirer after the acquisition, will still be subject to the Rule 144 resale conditions generally applicable to affiliates, including the adequate current public information requirement, volume limitations, manner-of-sale requirements for equity securities, and, if applicable, a Form 144 filing.
Application of Rule 145 to Shell Companies
Public resale of securities acquired by affiliates of acquirers and target
companies in business combination transactions involving shell companies
will continue to be subject to restrictions imposed by Rule 145. If the
business combination transaction is not registered under the Securities Act,
then the affiliates must look to Rule 144 to resell their securities (with
the additional Rule 144 conditions applicable to shell company securities).
If the business combination transaction is registered under the Securities
Act, then affiliates of the acquirer and target company may resell the
securities acquired in the transaction, subject to the following conditions:
-The issuer must
meet all of the conditions applicable to shell companies under
Rule 144;
- After 90 days from the date of the acquisition,
the affiliates may resell their securities subject to Rule 144's volume
limitations, adequate current public information requirement, and
manner-of-sale requirements;
- After six
months from the date of the acquisition, selling security-holders
who are not affiliates of the acquirer may resell their securities
subject only to the adequate current public information requirement
of Rule 144; and
- After one year
from the date of the acquisition, selling security-holders who are
not affiliates or the acquirer may resell their securities without
restriction.
Application of Rule 419 to Shell Companies
The provisions of Rule 419 apply to registration statements filed under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, by a blank check company. Rule 419 requires that a blank check company filing such registration statement deposit the securities being offered and proceeds of the offering into an escrow or trust account pending the execution of an agreement for an acquisition or merger.
Page 16
In addition, the registrant is required to file a post-effective amendment to the registration statement upon the execution of an agreement for such acquisition or merger. The rule provides procedures for the release of the offering funds in conjunction with the post effective acquisition or merger. The obligations to file post-effective amendments are in addition to the obligations to file Forms 8-K to report for both the entry into a material non-ordinary course agreement and the completion of the transaction. Rule 419 applies to both primary and re-sale or secondary offerings.
Within five (5) days of filing a post effective amendment setting forth the proposed terms of an acquisition, the Company must notify each investor whose shares are in escrow. Each investor then has no fewer than 20 and no greater than 45 business days to notify the Company in writing if they elect to remain an investor. A failure to reply indicates that the person has elected to not remain an investor. As all investors are allotted this second opportunity to determine to remain an investor, acquisition agreements should be conditioned upon enough funds remaining in escrow to close the transaction.
You May Not Be Entitled to Protections Normally Afforded to Investors of Bank Check Companies.
If the net proceeds of an offering under the Securities Act of 1933 is used to complete a initial business combination with a target business that has not been identified, and we will have net tangible assets in excess of $5,000,001 upon the successful consummation of this offering and will file a Current Report on Form 8-K, including an audited balance sheet demonstrating this fact, we are exempt from rules promulgated by the SEC to protect investors of blank check companies such as Rule 419. Accordingly, investors will not be afforded the benefits or protections of those rules which would, for example, completely restrict the transferability of our securities, require us to complete our initial business combination within 18 months of the effective date of the initial registration statement and restrict the use of interest earned on the funds held in the trust account.
Investors will then not be entitled to protections normally offered to investors in Rule 419 blank check offerings.
Possible Issuance of Additional Securities.
Our Articles of Incorporation authorize the issuance of 74,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.0001. As of June 30, 2017, we had 16,836,750 shares issued and outstanding. We may be expected to issue additional shares in connection with our pursuit of new business opportunities and new business operations. To the extent that additional shares of common stock are issued, our shareholders would experience dilution of their respective ownership interests. If we issue shares of common stock in connection with our intent to pursue new business opportunities, a change in control of the Registrant may be expected to occur. The issuance of additional shares of common stock may adversely affect the market price of our common stock, in the event that an active trading market commences.
Dividends unlikely
The Company does not expect to pay dividends for the foreseeable future because it has no revenues or cash resources. The payment of dividends will be contingent upon the Company's future revenues and earnings, if any, capital requirements and overall financial conditions. The payment of any future dividends will be within the discretion of the Company's board of directors as then constituted. It is the Company's expectation that future Management following a business combination will determine to retain any earnings for use in its business operations and accordingly, the Company does not anticipate declaring any dividends in the foreseeable future.

ITEM 2. FINANCIAL INFORMATION Back to Table of Contents
Management's Plan of Operation
The following discussion contains forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements give our current expectations or forecasts of future events. You can identify these statements by the fact that they do not relate strictly to historical or current facts. They use of words such as "anticipate", "estimate", "expect", "project", "intend", "plan", "believe", and other words and terms of similar meaning in connection with any discussion of future operating or financial performance. From time to time, we also may provide forward-looking statements in other materials we release to the public.
Overview
The Company's current business objective is to seek a business combination with an operating company. We intend to use the Company's limited personnel and financial resources in connection with such activities. The Company will utilize its capital stock, debt or a combination of capital stock and debt, in effecting a business combination. It may be expected that entering into a business combination will involve the issuance of restricted shares of capital stock. The issuance of additional shares of our capital stock:
may significantly reduce the equity interest of our stockholders;
will likely cause a
change in control if a substantial number of our shares of capital stock are issued, and
most likely will also result in the resignation or removal of our present officer and
director; and
may adversely affect
the prevailing market price for our common stock.
Similarly, if we issued debt securities, it
could result in:
default and
foreclosure on our assets if our operating revenues after a business combination were
insufficient to pay our debt obligations;
acceleration of our
obligations to repay the indebtedness even if we have made all principal and interest
payments when due if the debt security contained covenants that required the maintenance
of certain financial ratios or reserves and any such covenants were breached without a
waiver or renegotiations of such covenants;
our immediate payment
of all principal and accrued interest, if any, if the debt security was payable on demand;
and
our inability to
obtain additional financing, if necessary, if the debt security contained covenants
restricting our ability to obtain additional financing while such security was
outstanding.
Results of Operations during the year ended June 30, 2017 as compared to the year ended June 30, 2016
We have not generated any revenues during the years 2017 and 2016. We had total operating expenses of $2,259 related to general and administrative expenses during the year ended June 30, 2017 compared to total operating expenses of $749 during the year ended June 30, 2016. We incurred interest expense of $563 during the year ended June 30, 2017 compared to interest expense of $384 during the year ended June 30, 2016. During the year ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, we had a net loss of $2,822 and $1,133, respectively mainly due to our general and administrative expenses.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
At present, the Company has no business operations and no cash resources other than that provided by Management. We are dependent upon interim funding provided by Management or an affiliated party to pay professional fees and expenses. Our Management and an affiliated party have agreed to provide funding as may be required to pay for accounting fees and other administrative expenses of the Company until the Company enters into a business combination. The Company would be unable to continue as a going concern without interim financing provided by Management.
Page 18
If we require additional financing, we cannot predict whether equity or debt financing will become available at terms acceptable to us, if at all. The Company depends upon services provided by Management and an affiliated party to fulfill its filing obligations under the Exchange Act. At present, the Company has no financial resources to pay for such services.
The Company does not currently engage in any business activities that provide cash flow. The costs of investigating and analyzing business combinations, maintaining the filing of Exchange Act reports, the investigation, analyzing, and consummation of an acquisition for an unlimited period of time will be paid from additional money contributed by Ivo Heiden, our sole officer and director, or an affiliated party. Mr. Heiden or an affiliated party have verbally agreed to pay the Company's expenses through advances until we enter into a business combination. The imputed interest for these advances is 8%. The Company intents to repay these advances and when it has the cash resources to do so.
During the next 12 months we anticipate incurring costs related to:
filing of Exchange Act reports.
franchise fees, registered agent fees and accounting fees, and
investigating, analyzing and consummating an acquisition or business
combination.
We estimate that these costs will be in the range of five to six thousand dollars per year, and that we will be able to meet these costs as necessary, to be advanced/loaned to us by Management and/or an affiliated party.
On June 30, 2017 and June 30, 2016, we have had no current assets. As of June 30, 2017, we had $9,871 in liabilities consisting of short-term borrowings of $7,053 due to our CEO and accrued interest of $2,818. As of June 30, 2016, we had $7,049 in liabilities consisting of short-term borrowings of $4,794 due to our CEO and accrued interest of $2,255.
We had a negative cash flow from operations of $2,259 during the year ended June 30, 2017 mainly due to a net loss of $2,822 offset by an increase in accounts payable and accrued liabilities of $563. We financed our negative cash flow from operations during the year ended June 30, 2017 through advances made by our CEO of $2,259.
We had a negative cash flow from operations of $749 during the year ended June 30, 2016 mainly due to a net loss of $1,133 offset by an increase in accounts payable and accrued liabilities of $384. We financed our negative cash flow from operations through advances from our CEO.
The Company currently plans to satisfy its cash requirements for the next 12 months through borrowings from its CEO or companies affiliated with its CEO and believes it can satisfy its cash requirements so long as it is able to obtain financing from these affiliated parties. The Company expects that money borrowed will be used during the next 12 months to satisfy the Company's operating costs, professional fees and for general corporate purposes.
The Company has only limited capital. Additional financing is necessary for the Company to continue as a going concern. Our independent auditors have unqualified audit opinion for the years ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 with an explanatory paragraph on going concern.
Page 19
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
As of June 30, 2017 and 2016, we did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements as defined in Item 303(a)(4)(ii) of Regulation S-K promulgated under the Securities Act of 1934.
Contractual Obligations and Commitments
As of June 30, 2017 and 2016, we did not have any contractual obligations.
Critical Accounting Policies
Our significant accounting policies are described in the notes to our financial statements for the years ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, and are included elsewhere in this registration statement.

ITEM 4. SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT Back to Table of Contents
The following table sets forth information regarding the beneficial ownership of our common stock as of June 30, 2017. The information in this table provides the ownership information for: each person known by us to be the beneficial owner of more than 5% of our common stock; each of our directors; each of our executive officers; and our executive officers and directors as a group.
Beneficial ownership has been determined in accordance with the rules and regulations of the SEC and includes voting or investment power with respect to the shares. Unless otherwise indicated, the persons named in the table below have sole voting and investment power with respect to the number of shares indicated as beneficially owned by them.

(1) Applicable percentage ownership is based on 16,836,750 shares of common stock outstanding as of June 30, 2017. Beneficial ownership is determined in accordance with the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission and generally includes voting or investment power with respect to securities. Shares of common stock that are currently exercisable or exercisable within 60 days of June 30, 2017 are deemed to be beneficially owned by the person holding such securities for the purpose of computing the percentage of ownership of such person, but are not treated as outstanding for the purpose of computing the percentage ownership of any other person.

Dividends, if any, will be contingent upon our revenues and earnings, if any, capital requirements and financial conditions. The payment of dividends, if any, will be within the discretion of our board of directors. We intend to retain earnings, if any, for use in our business operations and accordingly, the board of directors does not anticipate declaring any dividends prior to a business combination transaction, nor can there be any assurance that any dividends will be paid following any business combination.

ITEM 12. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS Back to Table of Contents
Our articles of incorporation, by-laws and director indemnification agreements provide that each person who was or is made a party or is threatened to be made a party to or is otherwise involved (including, without limitation, as a witness) in any action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, by reason of the fact that he or she is or was a director or an officer of Brenham or, in the case of a director, is or was serving at our request as a director, officer, or trustee of another corporation, or of a partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, including service with respect to an employee benefit plan, whether the basis of such proceeding is alleged action in an official capacity as a director, officer or trustee or in any other capacity while serving as a director, officer or trustee, shall be indemnified and held harmless by us to the fullest extent authorized by the Nevada General Corporation Law against all expense, liability and loss reasonably incurred or suffered by such.
Section 145 of the Nevada General Corporation Law permits a corporation to indemnify any director or officer of the corporation against expenses (including attorney's fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred in connection with any action, suit or proceeding brought by reason of the fact that such person is or was a director or officer of the corporation, if such person acted in good faith and in a manner that he or she reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, if he or she had no reason to believe his or her conduct was unlawful. In a derivative action, ( i.e ., one brought by or on behalf of the corporation), indemnification may be provided only for expenses actually and reasonably incurred by any director or officer in connection with the defense or settlement of such an action or suit if such person acted in good faith and in a manner that he or she reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the corporation, except that no indemnification shall be provided if such person shall have been adjudged to be liable to the corporation, unless and only to the extent that the court in which the action or suit was brought shall determine that the defendant is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses despite such adjudication of liability.
Pursuant to Section 102(b)(7) of the Nevada General Corporation Law, Article Seven of our articles of incorporation eliminates the liability of a director to us for monetary damages for such a breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except for liabilities arising:
from any breach of the director's duty of loyalty to us;
from acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional
misconduct or a knowing violation of law;
under Section 174 of the Nevada General Corporation Law; and
from any transaction from which the director derived an improper
personal benefit.

ITEM 13. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTARY DATA Back to Table of Contents
Page 25
REPORT
OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
Back to Table of Contents
To the Board of Directors
and Stockholders of Ecomat, Inc.
We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Ecomat, Inc. as of June 30, 2017 and 2016, and the related statements of income, comprehensive income, stockholders' equity, and cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended June 30, 2017. Ecomat, Inc.'s management is responsible for these financial statements. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our 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 audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Ecomat, Inc. as of June 30, 2017 and 2016, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended June 30, 2017, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that Ecomat, Inc. will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 to the financial statements, Ecomat, Inc. suffered a loss from operations which raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans regarding those matters are also described in Note 2. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Background and Significant Accounting Policies
June 30, 2017
Back to Table of Contents
Note 1. The Company and Significant Accounting Policies
Ecomat, Inc. (the "Company") was incorporated on December 14, 1995 pursuant to the laws of the State of Delaware. On February 9, 2007, the Company completed its change in domicile to Nevada.
The Company used to operate a wet-cleaning process which was one of the first environmentally sound solution to current dry cleaning methods.
Bankruptcy Proceedings
On March 26, 1999, the Company filed a petition under Chapter 7 for liquidation of the Company's business. As a result of which all of its properties were transferred to a United States Trustee and the Company terminated all of its business operations. The Bankruptcy Trustee has disposed of all of the assets.
On May 18, 2006, the Trustee for the Company and Park Avenue Group, Inc. entered into a contract that was subject to Bankruptcy Court approval for the sale of certain asset free and clear of all liens, claims and encumbrances, the asset being comprised of the corporate shell of the debtor, Ecomat, Inc. (the "Asset"). On June 14, 2006, the Bankruptcy Court granted an order approving the contract and finding that Park Avenue Group is a good faith purchaser within the meaning of 11 USC Section 363(m) of the Bankruptcy Code.
Basis of Presentation:
We adopted "fresh-start" accounting as of June 15, 2006 in accordance with procedures specified by AICPA Statement of Position ("SOP") No. 90-7, "Financial Reporting by Entities in Reorganization under the Bankruptcy Code.
Significant Accounting Policies:
Use of Estimates:
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statement and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from the estimates.
Cash and Cash Equivalents:
For financial statement presentation purposes, the Company considers those short-term, highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash or cash equivalents. There were no cash equivalents at June 30, 2017 or 2016.
Property and Equipment:
New property and equipment are recorded at cost. Property and equipment included in the bankruptcy proceedings and transferred to the Trustee had been valued at liquidation value. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, generally 5 years. Expenditures for renewals and betterments are capitalized. Expenditures for minor items, repairs and maintenance are charged to operations as incurred. Gain or loss upon sale or retirement due to obsolescence is reflected in the operating results in the period the event takes place.
Valuation of Long-Lived Assets:
We review the recoverability of our long-lived assets including equipment, goodwill and other intangible assets, when events or changes in circumstances occur that indicate that the carrying value of the asset may not be recoverable. The assessment of possible impairment is based on our ability to recover the carrying value of the asset from the expected future pre-tax cash flows (undiscounted and without interest charges) of the related operations. If these cash flows are less than the carrying value of such asset, an impairment loss is recognized for the difference between estimated fair value and carrying value. Our primary measure of fair value is based on discounted cash flows. The measurement of impairment requires management to make estimates of these cash flows related to long-lived assets, as well as other fair value determinations.
Stock Based Compensation:
Stock-based awards are accounted for using the fair value method in accordance with ASC 718, Share-Based Payments. Our primary type of share-based compensation consists of stock options. We use the Black-Scholes option pricing model in valuing options. The inputs for the valuation analysis of the options include the market value of the Company's common stock, the estimated volatility of the Company's common stock, the exercise price of the warrants and the risk free interest rate.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments:
FASB ASC 825, "Financial Instruments," requires entities to disclose the fair value of financial instruments, both assets and liabilities recognized and not recognized on the balance sheet, for which it is practicable to estimate fair value. FASB ASC 825 defines fair value of a financial instrument as the amount at which the instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties. At June 30, 2017 and 2016, the carrying value of certain financial instruments (cash and cash equivalents, accounts payable and accrued expenses.) approximates fair value due to the short-term nature of the instruments or interest rates, which are comparable with current rates.
Earnings per Common Share:
We compute net income (loss) per share in accordance with ASC 260, Earning per Share. ASC 260 requires presentation of both basic and diluted earnings per share (EPS) on the face of the income statement. Basic EPS is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common shareholders (numerator) by the weighted average number of shares outstanding (denominator) during the period. Diluted EPS gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period using the treasury stock method and convertible preferred stock using the if-converted method. In computing Diluted EPS, the average stock price for the period is used in determining the number of shares assumed to be purchased from the exercise of stock options or warrants. Diluted EPS excludes all dilutive potential shares if their effect is anti-dilutive.
Income Taxes:
We have adopted ASC 740, Accounting for Income Taxes. Pursuant to ASC 740, we are required to compute tax asset benefits for net operating losses carried forward. The potential benefits of net operating losses have not been recognized in these financial statements because the Company cannot be assured it is more likely than not it will utilize the net operating losses carried forward in future years.
We must make certain estimates and judgments in determining income tax expense for financial statement purposes. These estimates and judgments occur in the calculation of certain tax assets and liabilities, which arise from differences in the timing of recognition of revenue and expense for tax and financial statement purposes.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the differences between financial reporting and the tax basis of assets and liabilities using the tax rates and laws in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. ASC 740 provides for the recognition of deferred tax assets if realization of such assets is more likely than not to occur. Realization of our net deferred tax assets is dependent upon our generating sufficient taxable income in future years in appropriate tax jurisdictions to realize benefit from the reversal of temporary differences and from net operating loss, or NOL, carryforwards. We have determined it more likely than not that these timing differences will not materialize and have provided a valuation allowance against substantially all of our net deferred tax asset.
Management will continue to evaluate the realizability of the deferred tax asset and its related valuation allowance. If our assessment of the deferred tax assets or the corresponding valuation allowance were to change, we would record the related adjustment to income during the period in which we make the determination. Our tax rate may also vary based on our results and the mix of income or loss in domestic and foreign tax jurisdictions in which we operate.
In addition, the calculation of our tax liabilities involves dealing with uncertainties in the application of complex tax regulations. We recognize liabilities for anticipated tax audit issues in the U.S. and other tax jurisdictions based on our estimate of whether, and to the extent to which, additional taxes will be due. If we ultimately determine that payment of these amounts is unnecessary, we will reverse the liability and recognize a tax benefit during the period in which we determine that the liability is no longer necessary. We will record an additional charge in our provision for taxes in the period in which we determine that the recorded tax liability is less than we expect the ultimate assessment to be.
ASC 740 which requires recognition of estimated income taxes payable or refundable on income tax returns for the current year and for the estimated future tax effect attributable to temporary differences and carry-forwards. Measurement of deferred income tax is based on enacted tax laws including tax rates, with the measurement of deferred income tax assets being reduced by available tax benefits not expected to be realized.
Uncertain Tax Positions:
The Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Interpretation No. 48, "Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes - an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes" ("FIN No. 48") which was effective for the Company on January 1, 2007. FIN No. 48 addresses the determination of whether tax benefits claimed or expected to be claimed on a tax return should be recorded in the financial statements. Under FIN No. 48, the Company may recognize the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefits recognized in the financial statements from such position should be measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than fifty percent likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. FIN No. 48 also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods and disclosure requirements.
Our federal and state income tax returns are open for fiscal years ending on or after June 30, 2007. We are not under examination by any jurisdiction for any tax year. At June 30, 2017, we had no material unrecognized tax benefits and no adjustments to liabilities or operations were required under FIN 48.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In August, 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments(a consensus of the Emerging Issues Task Force). Effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those fiscal years. For all other entities, the amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. If an entity early adopts the amendments in an interim period, any adjustments should be reflected as of the beginning of the fiscal year that includes that interim period. An entity that elects early adoption must adopt all of the amendments in the same period.
In May, 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-12, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Narrow-Scope Improvements and Practical Expedients. The amendments in this Update affect the guidance in Accounting Standards Update 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), which is not yet effective. The effective date and transition requirements for the amendments in this Update are the same as the effective date and transition requirements for Topic 606 (and any other Topic amended by Update 2014-09). Accounting Standards Update 2015-14,Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Deferral of the Effective Date, defers the effective date of Update 2014-09 by one year.
In April, 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-10, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing. The amendments in this Update affect the guidance in Accounting Standards Update 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), which is not yet effective. The effective date and transition requirements for the amendments in this Update are the same as the effective date and transition requirements in Topic 606 (and any other Topic amended by Update 2014-09). Accounting Standards Update 2015-14,Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Deferral of the Effective Date, defers the effective date of Update 2014-09 by one year.
The Company has considered all new accounting pronouncements and has concluded that there are no new pronouncements that may have a material impact on results of operations, financial condition, or cash flows, based on current information.
Note 2. Going Concern
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern The Company has incurred losses, has negative operational cash flows and has no revenues. The future of the Company is dependent upon Management success in its efforts and limited resources to pursue and effect a business combination.
These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. These financial statements do not include any adjustments that might arise from this uncertainty.
Note 3. "Fresh Start" Accounting
On March 26, 1999, all assets were transferred to the Chapter 7 trustee in settlement of all outstanding corporate obligations. We adopted "fresh-start" accounting as of June 15, 2006 in accordance with procedures specified by AICPA Statement of Position ("SOP") No. 90-7, "Financial Reporting by Entities in Reorganization under the Bankruptcy Code."
On May 18, 2006, the Trustee for the Company and Park Avenue Group, Inc. entered into a contract that was subject to Bankruptcy Court approval for the sale of certain asset free and clear of all liens, claims and encumbrances, the asset being comprised of the corporate shell of the debtor, Ecomat, Inc. (the "Asset"). On June 14, 2006, the Bankruptcy Court granted an order approving the contract and finding that Park Avenue Group is a good faith purchaser within the meaning of 11 USC Section 363(m) of the Bankruptcy Code. All results for periods including and subsequent to June 15, 2006 are referred to as those of the "Successor Company".
In accordance with SOP No. 90-7, the reorganized value of the Company was allocated to the Company's assets based on procedures specified by FASB ASC 805, "Business Combinations". Each liability existing at the plan sale date, other than deferred taxes, was stated at the present value of the amounts to be paid at appropriate market rates. It was determined that the Company's reorganization value computed immediately before June 15, 2006 was $0. We adopted "fresh-start" accounting because holders of existing voting shares immediately before filing and confirmation of the sale received less than 50% of the voting shares of the emerging entity and its reorganization value is less than its post-petition liabilities and allowed claims.
Note 4. Income Taxes
The Company had approximately $5.9 million in net operating loss carryovers available to reduce future income taxes. These carryovers were reduced to zero or eliminated through our bankruptcy proceedings. We have adopted ASC 740 which provides for the recognition of a deferred tax asset based upon the value the loss carry-forwards will have to reduce future income taxes and management's estimate of the probability of the realization of these tax benefits.
We have a current operating loss carry-forward of $12,732. We have determined it more likely than not that these timing differences will not materialize and have provided a valuation allowance against substantially all our net deferred tax asset.
Future utilization of currently generated federal and state NOL and tax credit carry forwards may be subject to a substantial annual limitation due to the ownership change limitations provided by the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended and similar state provisions. The annual limitation may result in the expiration of NOL and tax credit carry forwards before full utilization.
June 30, 2017 | June 30, 2016 | |||

)
) ORDER CONFIRMING SALE
) OF THE DEBTOR'S INTEREST
) IN PERSONAL PROPERTY
DEBTOR ) TO PARK AVENUE GROUP, INC.
The Court finds that notice was given to all creditors and parties in interest of the Trustee's Notice of Proposed Sale of Debtor's in Personal Property (the "Trustee's Notice"), being the Debtor, Ecomat, Inc.'s (the "Debtor") interests in certain intangible property, consisting of the corporate shell of the Debtor (the "Asset") to Park Avenue Group, Inc. ("Park Avenue") and that no objection was filed in response to the Trustee's Notice. As such, such sale is hereby approved and confirmed.
The sale of the Asset is "as is, where is", without representation or warranty of any kind whatsoever by the Trustee, including but not limited to any representation or warranty as to good standing, reinstatement of good standing, adequacy or timeliness of filing requirements (whether state or federal, including the Securities and Exchange Commission, the State of New York, the State of Delaware, or any other governmental unit), or any other filing or compliance actions, or the type or number of outstanding shares. Further, the Trustee makes no representations to Park Avenue as to the value or enforceability of the sale of any part of the Asset. Further, the Trustee makes no representations or warranty concerning the possible infringement of any trademarks, trade names, patents or copyrights arising out of the use by Park Avenue of the Asset.
Additionally, any and all interests that the bankruptcy estate may have in any real and/or personal property of the Debtor, excluding the Asset, shall remain in the estate for further administration by the Trustee under the Bankruptcy Code.
Further, based upon the fact that no objection was filed in response to the Trustee's Notice and the Trustee's contention in the Notice concerning Park Avenue's status as a good faith purchaser, Park Avenue's purchase of the Asset is in good faith and Park Avenue is a good faith purchaser entitled to protections of 11 U.S.C. Section 363(m).
Further, closing of the sale of the Asset shall take place not later than ten (10) days after the entry of this Order Confirming Sale, and upon the payment of $20,000 from Park Avenue to the Trustee. Payment of the $20,000 shall be by certified bank check to the Trustee made payable as follows: Barbara Balaber-Strauss, Trustee, and forwarded to counsel for the Trustee as follows: c/o William F. Macreery, Esq., 7 Granite Springs Road, Granite Springs, NY 10527.
Further, based upon the fact that no objection was filed in response to the Trustee's Notice, upon the closing of the sale of the Asset, the existing officers and directors of Ecomat, Inc. ("Ecomat") will be deemed removed from office and their official capacity shall be terminated.
Further, based upon the fact that no objection was filed in response to the Trustee's Notice the sale of the Asset was in the best interest of the Debtor's estate and therefore, it is approved and confirmed.
Further, based upon the fact that no objection was filed in response to the Trustee's Notice, the sale of the Asset shall be free and clear of all liens, claims, encumbrances and interests of others. Expenses of sale and the proceeds derived therefrom, including attorney's fees, shall be distributed to Barbara Balaber-Strauss, Trustee, to be held and administered by her for the benefit of the Debtor's estate, and all such liens, claims and encumbrances will attach only to the proceeds of the sale.
Further, based upon the fact that no objection was filed in response to the Trustee's Notice, it is ORDERED, ADJUDGED and DECREED that: upon closing, the existing officers and directors of Ecomat, Inc. will be deemed removed from office and their official capacity terminated; upon the closing, all common share conversion rights of any kind, including, but not limited to, warrants, options, convertible bonds, other convertible debt instruments, and convertible preferred stock shall be canceled and extinguished; and that following the closing, Buyer shall be authorized to appoint a new board of directors of Ecomat.
There being no just reason for delay, the Order Confirming Sale shall be a final Order of this Court, and the consideration for the sale of the Asset shall be held and administered for the benefit of the Debtor's estate by Barbara Balaber-Strauss, Trustee.
IT IS SO ORDERED.

Section 1. Right to Indemnification. Each person who was or is made a party
to or witness or other participant in or is threatened to be made a party to or
witness or other participant in or is otherwise involved in any action, suit or
proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative, investigative or other
(hereinafter a "Proceeding"), by reason of the fact that he or she, or a person
of whom he or she is the legal representative, is or was a director or officer
of the corporation or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a
director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation or of a partnership,
joint venture, trust or other enterprise, including service with respect to
employee benefit plans, whether the basis of the proceeding is alleged action in
an official capacity as a director, officer, employee or agent or in any other
capacity while serving as a director, officer, employee or agent, shall be
indemnified and held harmless by the corporation to the fullest extent
authorized by the Nevada Corporation Law, as the same exists or may hereafter be
amended (but, in the case of any such amendment, only to the extent that such
amendment permits the corporation to provide broader indemnification rights than
said Law permitted the corporation to provide prior to such amendment), against
all expenses, liability and loss (including, without limitation, attorneys'
fees, judgments, fines, ERISA excise taxes or penalties, amounts paid or to be
paid in settlement and all interest, assessments and other charges paid or
payable in connection with or in respect of such expanse, liability and loss)
(hereinafter collectively "expenses") reasonably incurred or suffered by such
person in connection therewith and such indemnification shall continue as to a
person who has ceased to be a director, offices, employee or agent and shall
inure to the benefit of his or her heirs, executors and administrators;
provided, however, that except as provided in Section 2 of this Article VII, the
corporation shall indemnity any such person seeking indemnification in
connection with a Proceeding (or part thereof) initiated by such person only if
such Proceeding (or part thereof) was authorized by the board of directors of
the corporation.
The right to indemnification conferred in this Article
VII shall be a contract right and shall include the right to be paid by the
corporation the expenses incurred in connection with any proceeding in advance
of its final disposition; provided, however, that if the Nevada Corporation Law
requires, the payment of such expenses incurred by a director or officer in his
or her capacity as a director or officer (and not in any other capacity in which
service was or is rendered by such person while a director or officer,
including, without limitation, service to an employee benefit plan) in advance
of the final disposition of a proceeding shall be made only upon delivery to the
corporation of an undertaking by or an behalf of such director on officer to
repay all amounts so advanced if it shall ultimately be determined that such
director or officer is not entitled to be indemnified under this Article VII or
otherwise. The corporation may, by action of its board of directors, provide
indemnification to employees and agents of corporation with the same scope and
effect as the foregoing indemnification of directors officers.
Section 2.
Right of Claimant to Bring Suit. If a claim under Section 1 of this Article VII
is not paid in full by the corporation within thirty days after a written claim
has been received by the corporation, the claimants may at any time thereafter
bring suit against the corporation to recover the unpaid amount of the claim
and, if successful in whole or in part, the claimant shall be entitled to be
paid also the expense of prosecuting such claim. It shall be a defense to any
such action (other than an action brought to enforce a claim for expenses
incurred in defending any proceeding in advance of its fiscal disposition where
the required undertaking, if any is required, has been tendered to the
corporation) that the claimant has not met the standard of conduct which make it
permissible under the Nevada General Corporation Law for the corporation to
indemnify the claimant for the amount claimed, but the burden of proving such
defense shall be on the corporation. Neither the failure of the corporation
(including its board of directors, independent legal counsel, or its
stockholders) to have made a determination prior to the commencement of such
action that indemnification of the claimant is proper in the circumstances
because he or she has met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in the
Nevada General Corporation Law, nor an actual determination by the corporation
(including its board of directors, independent legal counsel, or its
stockholders) that the claimant has not met such applicable standard of conduct,
shall be a defense to the action or create a presumption that the claimant has
not met the applicable standard of conduct.
Section 3. Non-Exclusivity of
Rights. The right to indemnification and the payment of Expenses incurred in a
proceeding in advance of its final disposition conferred in this Article VII

acquire under any statute, provision of the Certificate of Incorporation,
by-law, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise.
Section 4. Insurance. The corporation may maintain insurance, at its
expense, to protect itself and any person who is or was a director, officer,
employee, agent or fiduciary of the corporation or who is or was serving at the
request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee, agent or fiduciary
of another corporation or of a partnership, joint venture, trust or other
enterprise against any expenses incurred in a proceeding, whether or not the
corporation, would have the power to indemnify such person against such expenses
under the Nevada General Corporation Law.
