Company History
We were incorporated in the State of Nevada on December 9, 2004. We planned to engage in the acquisition and exploration of mining properties. The Company currently has no properties, is not conducting any exploration work and is therefore currently not in the “exploration stage”. We maintain our statutory registered agent's office at 6100 Neil Road, Suite 400, Reno, Nevada 89544 and our business office is located at 1111 West Georgia Street, Suite 1720, Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada V6E 4M8.
We have no revenues, have losses since inception, have no operations, and have been issued a going concern opinion by our auditor. We are relying upon the sale of securities and loans to fund our operations.
Canadian mining claim
The property on which we held an interest in the mineral rights is in British Columbia, Canada. The claim is located on the south end of Polley Lake approximately 90 kilometers northeast of the city of Williams Lake in the Cariboo Mining Division of British Columbia. The claim is approximately 500 meters long and 500 meters wide. To maintain the claim, a fee of approximately $2,000 must be paid each year to the provincial government.
We did not have any ownership rights in the underlying property, nor did we hold title to the mineral claim itself. The claim is a mining lease issued pursuant to the British Columbia Mineral Act. The lessee, Woodburn Holdings Ltd. (“Woodburn”), a British Columbia corporation entirely owned and controlled by our sole officer and director, Robert Baker, had exclusive rights to mine and recover all of the minerals contained within the boundaries of the lease.
The claim was held on our behalf by Woodburn on the understanding that the title to the mineral claim would be transferred to us on demand in the event that we found mineralize material and decide to proceed with our mining activities. The claim was recorded in Woodburn’s name because under British Columbia law, mineral claims may only be held by British Columbia residents, including British Columbia corporations. Since we are an American corporation, we can not hold mineral claims directly. In order to hold title in compliance with the law, we would have had to incorporate a British Columbia wholly owned, subsidiary corporation and have it hold the claim. We felt that the costs associated with forming and operating a subsidiary include legal fees, accounting fees and filing fees were prohibitive for a company with our limited funding. A subsidiary would be formed in the event that mineralized material was found on the claim and we decided to proceed with mining activities.
In December 2004, Woodburn paid to stake the mineral claim and then purchased the claim from a non-affiliated third party for $8,500. We then acquired the right from Woodburn to conduct mineral exploration activities on the claim for $8,500. Initially the cost was reflected on our balance sheet as a Mineral Claim Interest. No work was performed on the property. In the current year, due to adverse economic conditions and the increasing difficulty of raising funding for small scale mining exploration, we decided not to pursue exploration activities on the claim. On October 27, 2011, Woodburn sold the claim to a third party. The mineral claim interest has therefore been expensed and charged to Mineral property costs in the current year.
Mining concessions in Mexico
On July 15, 2011, we entered into a definitive securities purchase agreement (the “Agreement”) with a limited liability company incorporated in the state of Nevada (the “LLC”) and its member companies (the “Members”) with respect to the proposed acquisition of all of the issued and outstanding membership units of LLC. The LLC’s wholly owned subsidiary, a private corporation incorporated under the laws of Mexico, holds rights to certain mining concessions located in the State of Chihuahua, Mexico covering approximately 15,980 hectares. Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement we agreed to issue 25,000,000 shares of common stock to the Members and/or their nominees and make an aggregate cash payment of $150,000 to the Mexican subsidiary. Of that amount, $75,000 was advanced on June 20, 2011 and the remaining $75,000 was payable on or before closing. In the event the transaction did not close, the advance amount paid was to be treated as a secured demand loan bearing interest at 5% per annum.
Closing of the transaction was subject to a number of conditions including: satisfactory completion of both parties’ due diligence; obtaining all necessary governmental, regulatory and third party consents, waivers and approvals; the appointment of two nominees of the Members to our board of directors; and completion of an interim financing with proceeds intended to be used to fund our working capital.
The 25,000,000 shares were not issued and none of the closing conditions described above were completed. The parties agreed on September 27, 2011 to a mutual release and cancellation of the Agreement. The LLC acknowledged the $75,000 as a loan from us, bearing interest at 5% per annum and indicated it will use best efforts to repay the loan in a timely manner. The loan is secured by the assets of the LLC and the Company expects to be repaid. However as collectability is uncertain, management has made a provision for loan loss in the current year of $76,418 for the full amount of the loan plus accrued interest.

Current Status
We are currently considered a “shell” company inasmuch as we are not generating revenues, do not own an operating business, and have no specific plan other than to engage in a merger or acquisition transaction with a yet-to-be identified operating company or business. We have no employees and minimal cash.
We currently have no definitive agreements or understandings with any prospective business combination or project candidates and there are no assurances that we will find a suitable business with which to combine or project to acquire. The implementation of our business objectives is wholly contingent upon a business combination or project acquisition and/or the successful sale of our securities. We intend to utilize the proceeds of any offering, any sales of equity securities or debt securities, bank and other borrowings or a combination of those sources to effect a business combination or project acquisition which we believe has significant growth potential.
A common reason for a target company to enter into a merger with a shell company is the desire to establish a public trading market for its shares. Such a company would hope to avoid the perceived adverse consequences of undertaking a public offering itself, such as the time delays and significant expenses incurred to comply with the various federal and state securities law that regulate initial public offerings.
We have no employees. The services of our president and CEO, Robert M. Baker, are provided through a consulting agreement effective January1, 2012 with a company owned by Mr. Baker. We expect to use outside consultants, advisors, attorneys and accountants as necessary, none of whom will be hired on a retainer basis. We do not anticipate hiring any full-time employees so long as we are seeking and evaluating business opportunities.
In evaluating a prospective target business or project, we will consider a variety of factors, including the following:
|
|
-
|
experience and skill of management and availability of additional personnel of the target business or project;
|
|
|
-
|
costs associated with effecting the business combination or project acquisition;
|
|
|
-
|
equity interest retained by our stockholders in any merged entity;
|
|
|
-
|
growth potential of the target business or project;
|
|
|
-
|
capital requirements of the target business or project;
|
|
|
-
|
capital available to the target business or project;
|
|
|
-
|
stage of development of the target business or project
|
|
|
-
|
proprietary features and degree of intellectual property or other protection of the target business or project;
|
|
|
-
|
the financial statements of the target business or project; and
|
|
|
-
|
the regulatory environment in which the target business or project operates.
|
The foregoing criteria are not intended to be exhaustive and any evaluation relating to the merits of a particular target business or project will be based, to the extent relevant, on the above factors, as well as other considerations we deem relevant. In connection with our evaluation of a prospective target business or project, we anticipate that we will conduct a due diligence review which will encompass, among other things, meeting with incumbent management as well as a review of financial, legal and other information.
The time and costs required to select and evaluate a target business or project (including conducting a due diligence review) and to structure and consummate the business combination or project acquisition (including negotiating and documenting relevant agreements and preparing requisite documents for filing pursuant to applicable corporate and securities laws) cannot be determined at this time. Our will devote such time as he deems reasonably necessary to carry out our business and affairs. The amount of time devoted to our business and affairs may vary significantly depending upon, among other things, whether we have identified a target business or project or are engaged in active negotiation of a business combination or project acquisition.
We anticipate that various prospective target businesses or projects will be brought to our attention from various sources, including securities broker-dealers, investment bankers, venture capitalists, bankers and other members of the financial community.

ITEM 1A.
|
RISK FACTORS.
|
You should carefully consider the risks described below before purchasing our common stock. The following risk factors could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
WE HAVE LIMITED OPERATING HISTORY OR BASIS FOR EVALUATING OUR PROSPECTS.
In considering whether to invest in our common stock, you should consider that we have earned no revenues to date and there is only limited historical financial and operating information available on which to base your evaluation of our performance. We have no operating business or immediate plans to develop one. We are currently seeking to enter into a merger or business combination with another company, or acquire a project. Our efforts are limited to meeting our regulatory filing requirements and searching for a merger target or project to acquire.
WE HAVE LIMITED RESOURCES AND NO REVENUES FROM OPERATIONS, AND WILL NEED ADDITIONAL FINANCING IN ORDER TO EXECUTE ANY BUSINESS PLAN.
We have losses which we expect to continue into the future. As a result, we may have to suspend or cease operations. We have limited resources, no revenues from operations to date and our cash on hand will not be sufficient to satisfy our cash requirements during the next twelve months. In addition, we will not achieve any revenues until, at the earliest, the consummation of a merger or acquisition of a project and we cannot ascertain our capital requirements until such time.
WE WILL BE ABLE TO EFFECT AT MOST ONE MERGER, AND THUS ARE NOT LIKELY TO HAVE A DIVERSIFIED BUSINESS.
Our resources are limited and we will most likely have the ability to effect only a single merger, or acquisition of a business or project. This probable lack of diversification will subject us to numerous economic, competitive and regulatory developments, any or all of which may have a material adverse impact upon the particular industry in which we may operate subsequent to the consummation of a merger or acquisition of a business or project. We will become dependent upon the development or market acceptance of a single or limited number of products, processes or services.
WE DEPEND SUBSTANTIALLY UPON OUR PRESIDENT TO MAKE ALL MANAGEMENT DECISIONS.
Our ability to effect a merger or acquire a new project will be dependent upon the efforts of our president, Robert M. Baker. We have not obtained any "key man" life insurance for Mr. Baker. The loss of the services of Mr. Baker would have a material adverse effect on our business objectives and success. We rely upon the expertise of Mr. Baker and do not anticipate that we will hire additional personnel unless required after a merger or project acquisition is completed.
THERE IS COMPETITION FOR THOSE PRIVATE COMPANIES SUITABLE FOR A MERGER TRANSACTION OR BUSINESS PROJECTS OF THE TYPE CONTEMPLATED BY MANAGEMENT.
We are in a highly competitive market for a limited number of business opportunities which could reduce the likelihood of consummating a successful business combination or project acquisition. We are and will continue to be a very small participant in the business of seeking mergers with, joint ventures with or acquisitions of small private and public entities or projects. A large number of established and well-financed entities, including small public companies and venture capital firms, are active in mergers and acquisitions of companies or projects that may be desirable targets for us. Nearly all these entities have significantly greater financial resources, technical expertise and managerial capabilities than we do; consequently, we will be at a competitive disadvantage in identifying possible business opportunities and successfully completing a business combination or project acquisition. These competitive factors may reduce the likelihood of our identifying and consummating a successful business combination or project acquisition.
FUTURE SUCCESS IS HIGHLY DEPENDENT ON THE ABILITY OF MANAGEMENT TO LOCATE AND ATTRACT A SUITABLE ACQUISITION OR PROJECT.
The nature of our operations is highly speculative. The success of our plan of operation will depend to a great extent on the operations, financial condition and management of an identified business opportunity. While management intends to seek a business combination or project with entities having established operating histories, we cannot assure you that we will be successful in locating candidates meeting that criterion. In the event we complete a business combination or acquire a new project, the success of our operations may be dependent upon management of the successor firm or venture partner firm and numerous other factors beyond our control.
WE HAVE NO AGREEMENT FOR A BUSINESS COMBINATION OR OTHER TRANSACTION.
We have no agreement with respect to engaging in a merger with, joint venture with or acquisition of, a private or public entity or business project. No assurances can be given that we will successfully identify and evaluate suitable business opportunities or that we will conclude a business combination or acquire a new project. Management has not identified any particular industry or specific business within an industry for evaluation. We cannot guarantee that we will be able to negotiate a business combination or acquire a new project on favorable terms, and there is consequently a risk that funds allocated to the purchase of our shares will not be invested in a company with active business operations.

RISK FACTORS.
- continued
|
CURRENT SHAREHOLDERS COULD BE SUBSTANTIALLY DILUTED UPON A MERGER OR BUSINESS COMBINATION OR PROJECT ACQUISITION.
Our Certificate of Incorporation authorized the issuance of 100,000,000 shares of our Common Stock. There are currently 93,750,000 authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock available for issuance. To the extent that additional shares of Common Stock are authorized and issued in connection with a merger or business combination or project acquisition, our shareholders could experience significant dilution of their respective ownership interests. Furthermore, the issuance of a substantial number of shares of Common Stock may adversely affect prevailing market prices, if any, for our Common Stock and could impair our ability to raise additional capital through the sale of equity securities.
CONTROL BY EXISTING SHAREHOLDER.
Our sole director and officer, Robert M. Baker beneficially owns 80% of the outstanding shares of our Common Stock. As a result, this shareholder is able to exercise control over matters requiring shareholder approval, including the election of directors, and the approval of mergers, consolidations and sales of all or substantially all of our assets.
OUR COMMON STOCK IS A "PENNY STOCK" WHICH MAY RESTRICT THE ABILITY OF STOCKHOLDERS TO SELL OUR COMMON STOCK IN THE SECONDARY MARKET.
The Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) has adopted regulations which generally define “penny stock” to be any equity security that has a market price (as defined) less than $5.00 per share or an exercise price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions. Our securities are covered by the penny stock rules, which impose additional sales practice requirements on broker-dealers who sell to persons other than established customers and “accredited investors”. The term “accredited investor” refers generally to institutions with assets in excess of $5,000,000 or individuals with a net worth in excess of $1,000,000 or annual income exceeding $200,000 or $300,000 jointly with their spouse. The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from the rules, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document in a form prepared by the SEC which provides information about penny stocks and the nature and level of risks in the penny stock market. 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 salesperson in the transaction and monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer’s account. The bid and offer quotations, and the broker-dealer and salesperson compensation information, must be given to the customer orally or in writing prior to effecting the transaction and must be given to the customer in writing before or with the customer’s confirmation. In addition, the penny stock rules require that prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from these rules; the broker-dealer must make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser’s written agreement to the transaction. These disclosure requirements may have the effect of reducing the level of trading activity in the secondary market for the stock that is subject to these penny stock rules. Consequently, these penny stock rules may affect the ability of broker-dealers to trade our securities. As long as the common stock is subject to the penny stock rules, holders of our common stock may find it more difficult to sell their securities.
OUR COMMON STOCK HAS BEEN THINLY TRADED, LIQUIDITY IS LIMITED, AND WE MAY BE UNABLE TO OBTAIN LISTING OF OUR COMMON STOCK ON A MORE LIQUID MARKET.
Our Common Stock is quoted on the OTCQB operated by the OTC Markets Group which provides significantly less liquidity than a securities exchange (such as the NYSE Amex or New York Stock Exchange) or an automated quotation system (such as the Nasdaq Global Market or Capital Market). There is uncertainty that we will ever be accepted for a listing on an automated quotation system or national securities exchange.
There is currently a limited volume of trading in our common stock, and often there has been no trading activity at all. The purchasers of shares of our common stock may find it difficult to resell their shares at prices quoted in the market or at all.

LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.

There are no material pending legal proceedings to which our company is a party, and no such proceedings are known by us to be contemplated.
There is no material proceeding to which any director, officer, or affiliate of our company, or any owner of record or beneficial owner of more than 5% of any class of voting securities of our company, or any associate of any such director, officer, affiliate of our company, or security holder is a party adverse to our company or has a material interest adverse to our company.

These quotations reflect inter-dealer prices, without retail mark-up, mark-down or commissions and may not represent actual transactions.
The market for the common stock has been sporadic and there have been long periods during which there were few, if any, transactions in the common stock and no reported quotations. Accordingly, reliance should not be placed on the quotes listed below, as the trades and depth of the market may be limited, and therefore, such quotes may not be a true indication of the current market value of the Company’s common stock.
On April 10, 2012, we had 40 shareholders of record of our common stock.
Dividends
We have not declared any cash dividends, nor do we have any plans to do so. Management anticipates that, for the foreseeable future, all available cash will be needed to fund our operations.
Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities
During the year ended December 31, 2011 we received $10,000 as a subscription for 200,000 shares of our common stock. The shares have not yet been issued and are included on the Balance Sheet as Shares To Be Issued.
From January to March, 2012, the Company received payments totaling $75,000 as subscriptions for 1,500,000 shares of its common stock. In April, 2012, loans totaling $22,500 Canadian were converted to a subscription for 450,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. As of the date of this report the shares have not yet been issued.
All of the above shares are part of a private placement of securities to offshore subscribers pursuant to Regulation S of the Securities Act of 1933. The subscribers represented that they are not a US person, as defined in Regulation S. No compensation was or will be paid in connection with these subscriptions.

Section 15(g) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934
Our shares are covered by Section 15(g) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended that imposes additional sales practice requirements on broker/dealers who sell such securities to persons other than established customers and accredited investors (generally institutions with assets in excess of $5,000,000 or individuals with net worth in excess of $1,000,000 or annual income exceeding $200,000 or $300,000 jointly with their spouses). For transactions covered by the Rule, the broker/dealer must make a special suitability determination for the purchase and have received the purchaser’s written agreement to the transaction prior to the sale. Consequently, the Rule may affect the ability of broker/dealers to sell our securities and also may affect your ability to sell your shares in the secondary market.
Section 15(g) also imposes additional sales practice requirements on broker/dealers who sell penny securities. These rules require a one page summary of certain essential items. The items include the risk of investing in penny stocks in both public offerings and secondary marketing; terms important to in understanding of the function of the penny stock market, such as “bid” and “offer” quotes, a dealers “spread” and broker/dealer compensation; the broker/dealer compensation, the broker/dealers duties to its customers, including the disclosures required by any other penny stock disclosure rules; the customers rights and remedies in causes of fraud in penny stock transactions; and, the NASD’s toll free telephone number and the central number of the North American Administrators Association, for information on the disciplinary history of broker/dealers and their associated persons.
Securities authorized for issuance under equity compensation plans
We have no equity compensation plans and accordingly we have no shares authorized for issuance under an equity compensation plan.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.
|
This section of this report includes a number of forward-looking statements that reflect our current views with respect to future events and financial performance. Forward-looking statements are often identified by words like: believe, expect, estimate, anticipate, intend, project and similar expressions, or words which, by their nature, refer to future events. You should not place undue certainty on these forward-looking statements, which apply only as of the date of this report. These forward-looking statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from historical results or our predictions.
General
Our plan is to seek, investigate, and consummate a merger or other business combination, purchase of assets or other strategic transaction with a corporation, partnership, or other operating business entity desiring the perceived advantages of becoming a publicly reporting and publicly held corporation. We have no operating business, and conduct minimal operations necessary to meet regulatory requirements. Our ability to commence any operations is contingent upon obtaining adequate financial resources.
We may consider a business which has recently commenced operations and is seeking to develop a new product or service, or a business combination may involve the acquisition of, or merger with, a company which does not need substantial additional capital, but which desires to establish a public trading market for its shares, while avoiding, among other things, the time delays, significant expense, and loss of voting control which may occur in a public offering. Alternatively, we may consider acquiring a project that is no longer aligned with the strategic direction of the business in which it was developed.
We are not currently engaged in any business activities that provide cash flow. The costs of meeting our regulatory and reporting requirements, as well as the costs of investigating and analyzing potential business combinations or projects for the next twelve months will need to be funded through sales of our common stock and/or loans.
During the next twelve months we anticipate incurring costs related to:
|
|
(i)
|
preparation, review, and audit of financial statements;
|
|
|
(ii)
|
preparation of regulatory reports;
|
|
|
(iii)
|
filing of Exchange Act reports;
|
|
|
(iv)
|
transfer agent, compliance services and other overhead;
|
|
|
(v)
|
consulting fees in connection with the services of our president and CEO, and
|
|
|
(vi)
|
identifying, investigating and possibly completing a transaction to acquire a business or project as described above.

Equipment and Employees
As of December 31, 2011, we had no operating business, no equipment, and no employees.
Going Concern
Our auditors have issued a going concern opinion. This means that there is substantial doubt that we can continue as an on-going business for the next twelve months unless we obtain additional capital to pay our expenses. This is because we have not generated any revenues to date and we can not currently estimate the timing of any possible future revenues. Our only source for cash at this time is investments by others in our common stock, or loans.
Results of Operations
The following summary of our results of operations should be read in conjunction with our audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2011 which are included with this Report.

We recorded a net loss of $203,454 for the year ended December 31, 2011, have an accumulated deficit of $444,169 and have had no operating revenues since our inception on June 10, 2003. We have no way to generate any revenue until after we are able to effect a business combination or project acquisition. The possibility and timing of revenue being generated after that cannot be predicted given that no target business combination or project acquisition have yet been identified.

Corporate support services
decreased year over year due to the termination at the end of March, 2011 of an agreement for the provision of such services that had been in effect from April, 2010.
Interest, bank and finance charges
increased primarily due to interest accrued on accounts payable (approximately $4,000), interest accrued on loans payable (approximately $5,000), and the$62,500 estimated fair value of a finance fee in connection with the issuance of 250,000 shares as partial consideration for a loan received.
Mineral property costs
increased due to the write-off of a mineral claim interest that was previously capitalized, after we decided that it was no longer in the best interests of the company to pursue exploration activities on that claim.
Professional fees
increased primarily due to legal costs incurred in connection with our efforts to acquire certain mining concessions in Mexico.
Other (Income) Expense
was comprised of a gain of approximately $57,000 resulting from debt forgiveness by a former shareholder, offset by the impairment of a $10,000 advance that we concluded was unlikely to be recovered and a $75,000 loan for which collectability was judged to be uncertain, together with accrued interest of $1,418. We will however, continue to pursue recovery of the advance and we expect to be repaid for the loan which is secured.

The decrease in our working capital from December 31, 2010 to December 31, 2011 was primarily due to an increase in accounts payable and accrued liabilities (approximately $57,000), an increase in loans payable (approximately $112,000), and the impairment of an advance recoverable ($10,000). These were partially offset by a decrease in amounts and promissory notes due to related parties totaling approximately $55,000.

Cash Used In Operating Activities
|
|
The largest component of the increase in cash used for operating activities was from the year over year increase in professional fees. This resulted primarily from our efforts to acquire the rights to certain mining concessions in Mexico.
|
Cash Provided By (Used In) Investing Activities
|
|
The year over year increase in cash used for investing activities resulted primarily from advancing $75,000 in connection with our effort to acquire certain mining concessions in Mexico. Those concessions were not acquired and the advance was converted to a loan. As collectability of the loan is uncertain, a provision for loss of the loan was recorded in the current year.
|
Cash Provide By Financing Activities
|
|
The year over year increase in cash provided by financing activities was primarily due to the receipt of loans totaling approximately $107,000. Proceeds from the issuance of common stock were up $10,000 while advances from related parties and promissory notes were lower year over year by approximately $24,000.
|
As of the date of this report, we have yet to generate any revenues from our business operations. Our ability to generate adequate amounts of cash to meet our needs is entirely dependent on the issuance of shares, debt securities, or loans.
As of December 31, 2011, our total assets were $9,903 and our total liabilities were $278,522.
Our principal source of working capital has been in the form of loans and capital contributions from our shareholders or management, loans from third parties, and funds received as subscriptions for our common stock. For the foreseeable future, we will have to continue to rely on those sources for funding. We have no assurance that we can successfully engage in any further private sales of our securities or that any additional loans can be obtained by us. At December 31, 2011, we had cash of $759 and negative working capital of $268,619.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We have no off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to stockholders.

Commitments
We do not have any commitments as of December 31, 2011which are required to be disclosed in tabular form. On February 21, 2012 a consulting agreement was fully executed between us and another company controlled by our director and officer, effective January 1, 2012 for a term of 48 months, whereby the other company has agreed to provide the services of its shareholder as our CEO, COO, CFO and Corporate Secretary. As compensation, we are to pay US$90,000 per annum, in equal monthly installments of $7,500, in arrears and plus applicable taxes. We also agreed to reimburse reasonable business and/or entertainment and automobile expenses during the duration of the consulting agreement.
Critical Accounting Policies
In preparing our financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles our management is required to use their judgment in making estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in its financial statements and related notes. Management bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Our critical accounting policies are mainly those subject to significant judgments and uncertainties which could potentially result in materially different results under different conditions and assumptions. We believe the following critical accounting policies reflect our most significant estimates, judgments and assumptions used in the preparation of our financial statements:
Use of Estimates and Assumptions
The preparation of financial statements, in conformity with United States generally accepted accounting principles, requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying disclosures. By their nature, these estimates are subject to measurement uncertainty and the effect on the financial statements of changes in such estimates in future periods could be significant. Significant areas requiring management’s estimates and assumptions are determining the fair value of transactions involving common stock, valuation and impairment losses on mineral property acquisitions and values recorded for related party transactions. Actual results may differ from the estimates.
Stock-Based Compensation
We account for equity instruments issued in exchange for the receipt of goods or services from parties other than employees in accordance with ASC 718 and ASC 505, Equity. Costs are measured at the estimated fair market value of the consideration received or the estimated fair value of the equity instruments issued, whichever is more reliably measurable. The value of equity instruments issued for consideration other than employee services is determined on the earliest of a performance commitment or completion of performance by the provider of goods or services.
Income Taxes
The Company uses the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes in accordance with ASC Topic 740, Income Taxes. This standard requires the use of an asset and liability approach for financial accounting and reporting on income taxes. If it is more likely than not that some portion or all of a deferred tax asset will not be realized, a valuation allowance is recognized.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board, (“FASB”) or other standard setting bodies that are adopted by the Company as of the specified effective date. Unless otherwise discussed, the Company believes that the impact of recently issued standards that are not yet effective will not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements upon adoption.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Directors and Stockholders of
International Gold Corp.
We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of International Gold Corp. (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2011 and 2010, and the related statements of operations, cash flows and stockholders’ deficiency for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2011. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our 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 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 audits 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 includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes 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 the Company as of December 31, 2011 and 2010, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2011, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, the Company has suffered recurring losses from operations, has negative operating cash flows, has a stockholders’ deficiency and is dependent upon obtaining adequate financing to fulfill its business activities. These factors raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also discussed in Note 1. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND NATURE OF OPERATIONS
|
Organization
International Gold Corp. (“the Company”) was incorporated in the State of Nevada, U.S.A., on December 9, 2004. The Company’s principal executive offices are located in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. The Company was formed for the purpose of acquiring exploration stage natural resource properties. The Company currently has no properties, is not conducting any exploration work and is currently not in the “exploration stage”. The Company has not yet realized any revenues from its operations.
Going Concern
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern.
The future of the Company is dependent upon its ability to establish a business and to obtain new financing to execute a business plan. As shown in the accompanying financial statements, the Company has incurred accumulated losses of $444,169 for the period from December 9, 2004 (inception) to December 31, 2011, and has had no revenue. There is no assurance that management’s plans to seek additional capital through private placements of its common stock will be realized, and these factors may cast substantial doubt upon the use of the going concern assumption. These financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded assets, or the amounts of and classification of liabilities that might be necessary in the event the Company cannot continue in existence.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
|
The financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”). Because a precise determination of many assets and liabilities is dependent upon future events, the preparation of financial statements for a period necessarily involves the use of estimates which have been made using careful judgment. All dollar amounts are in U.S. dollars unless otherwise noted.
The financial statements have, in management’s opinion, been properly prepared within reasonable limits of materiality and within the framework of the significant accounting policies summarized below:
|
a)
|
Exploration Stage Enterprise
|
The Company’s financial statements have been prepared using the accrual method of accounting. To date, the Company had devoted substantially all of its efforts to acquiring and exploring mineral properties. It currently has no properties and no exploration program.
|
b)
|
Mineral Property Costs
|
Mineral property exploration costs were expensed as incurred. Mineral property acquisition costs were initially capitalized when incurred. The Company assessed the carrying costs for impairment at each fiscal quarter end. If it had been determined that a mineral property could be economically developed as a result of establishing proven and probable reserves, the costs then incurred to develop such property would be capitalized. Such costs would be amortized using the unit-of-production method over the estimated life of the probable reserve. If mineral properties were subsequently abandoned or impaired, any capitalized costs would be charged to operations.
|
c)
|
Long-lived Assets
|
The Company tests long-lived assets or asset groups for recoverability when events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying amount may not be recoverable. Circumstances which could trigger a review include, but are not limited to: significant decreases in the market price of the asset; significant adverse changes in the business climate or legal factors; accumulation of costs significantly in excess of the amount originally expected for the acquisition or construction of the asset; current period cash flow or operating losses combined with a history of losses or a forecast of continuing losses associated with the use of the asset; and current expectation that the asset will more likely than not be sold or disposed significantly before the end of its estimated useful life.
Recoverability is assessed based on the carrying amount of the asset and its fair value which is generally determined based on the sum of the undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use and the eventual disposal of the asset. An impairment loss is recognized when the carrying amount is not recoverable and exceeds fair value.
|
d)
|
Asset Retirement Obligations
|
Asset retirement obligations, including environmental expenditures, that relate to current operations are charged to operations or capitalized as appropriate. Expenditures that relate to an existing condition caused by past operations, and which do not contribute to current or future revenue generation, are charged to operations. Liabilities are recorded when retirement obligations, including environmental assessments and/or remedial efforts, are probable, and the cost can be reasonably estimated.
|
e)
|
Cash and Cash Equivalents
|
Cash consists of cash on deposit with high quality major financial institutions, and to date, the Company has not experienced losses on any of its balances. The carrying amounts approximated fair market value due to the liquidity of these deposits. For purposes of the balance sheet and statements of cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with maturity of 90 days or less to be cash equivalents.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
(Continued)
|
|
f)
|
Foreign Currency Accounting
|
The Company’s functional currency is the U.S. dollar. Head office financing and investing activities are generally in Canadian dollars. Transactions in Canadian currency are translated into U.S. dollars as follows:
|
|
i)
|
monetary items at the exchange rate prevailing at the balance sheet date;
|
|
|
ii)
|
non-monetary items at the historical exchange rate; and
|
|
|
iii)
|
revenue and expense items at the rate in effect of the date of transactions.
|
Gains and losses arising on the settlement of foreign currency denominated transactions or balances are recorded in the statements of operations.
|
g)
|
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
|
ASC Topic 820-10 establishes a three-tier value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value. The hierarchy prioritizes the inputs into three levels based on the extent to which inputs used in measuring fair value are observable in the market.
These tiers include:
|
|
§
|
Level 1 – defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets;
|
|
|
§
|
Level 2 – defined as inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable; and
|
|
|
§
|
Level 3 – defined as unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions.
|
Cash consists of cash on deposit with a high quality major financial institution. The carrying cost approximates fair value due to the liquidity of these deposits. The carrying amounts of other financial assets and liabilities comprising amounts receivable, loan receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, loans payable and amounts due to related parties, were reasonable approximations of their fair value.
|
h)
|
Use of Estimates and Assumptions
|
The preparation of financial statements, in conformity with United States generally accepted accounting principles, requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying disclosures. By their nature, these estimates are subject to measurement uncertainty and the effect on the financial statements of changes in such estimates in future periods could be significant. Significant areas requiring management’s estimates and assumptions are determining the fair value of transactions involving the loan receivable, advance recoverable and common stock, valuation and impairment losses on mineral property acquisitions and values recorded for related party transactions. Actual results may differ from the estimates.
|
i)
|
Basic and Diluted Loss Per Share
|
The Company reports basic loss per share in accordance with ASC Topic 260, “Earnings Per Share”. Basic loss per share is computed by dividing net loss available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted loss per share is computed similar to basic loss per common share except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the potential common shares had been issued and if the additional common shares were dilutive. As the Company generated net losses in the period presented, the basic and diluted loss per share are the same, as any exercise of options or warrants would be anti-dilutive.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

j)
|
Stock-based Compensation
|
The Company adopted ASC Topic 718, “Compensation – Stock Compensation”, which addresses the accounting for stock-based payment transactions in which an enterprise receives employee services in exchange for (a) equity instruments for the enterprise, or (b) liabilities that are based on the fair value of the enterprise’s equity instruments or that may be settled by the issuance of such equity instruments. The Company uses the Black-Scholes option-pricing model to determine the fair-value of these transactions. To December 31, 2011, the Company has not granted any stock options.
|
k)
|
Income Taxes
|
The Company uses the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes in accordance with ASC Topic 740, Income Taxes. This standard requires the use of an asset and liability approach for financial accounting and reporting on income taxes. If it is more likely than not that some portion or all of a deferred tax asset will not be realized, a valuation allowance is recognized.
|
l)
|
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
|
From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board, (“FASB”) or other standard setting bodies that are adopted by the Company as of the specified effective date. Unless otherwise discussed, the Company believes that the impact of recently issued standards that are not yet effective will not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements upon adoption.
|
3.
|
ADVANCE RECOVERABLE
|
By a letter agreement dated March 18, 2010, the Company paid an advance of $10,000 to a company in connection with a prospective financing and merger between the two companies. The funds advanced were to be returned in full as a formal agreement was not entered into and negotiations were terminated. The Company has concluded that the advance is unlikely to be recovered due to ongoing financial difficulties experienced by the company that received the advance. The full amount of the advance has therefore been impaired. The Company will continue to pursue recovery of the advance.
|
4.
|
LOAN RECEIVABLE
|
On July 15, 2011, the Company entered into a definitive securities purchase agreement (the “Agreement”) with a limited liability company incorporated in the state of Nevada (the “LLC”) and its member companies (the “Members”) with respect to the proposed acquisition of all of the issued and outstanding membership units of LLC. The LLC has an agreement to acquire a private corporation incorporated under the laws of Mexico which holds rights to certain mining concessions located in the State of Chihuahua, Mexico covering approximately 15,980 hectares. Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, the Company agreed to issue 25,000,000 shares of common stock to the Members and/or their nominees and make an aggregate cash payment of $150,000 to the Mexican subsidiary. Of that amount, $75,000 was advanced on June 20, 2011 and the remaining $75,000 was payable on or before closing. In the event the transaction did not close, the advance amount paid was to be treated as a secured demand loan bearing interest at 5% per annum.
Closing of the transaction was subject to a number of conditions including: satisfactory completion of both parties’ due diligence; obtaining all necessary governmental, regulatory and third party consents, waivers and approvals; the appointment of two nominees of the Members to the board of directors of the Company; and completion of an interim financing with proceeds intended to be used to fund working capital of the Company.
The 25,000,000 shares were not issued and none of the closing conditions described above were completed. The parties agreed on September 27, 2011 to a mutual release and cancellation of the Agreement. The LLC acknowledged the $75,000 as a loan from the Company, bearing interest at 5% per annum and indicated it will use best efforts to repay the loan in a timely manner. The loan is secured by the assets of the LLC and the Company expects to be repaid. However, as collectability is uncertain, management has made a provision for loan loss in the current year of $76,418 for the full amount of the loan plus accrued interest.

MINERAL CLAIM INTEREST
|
In 2004, the Company, on payment of $8,500 to a related British Columbia corporation owned and controlled by the sole director and officer of the Company, acquired the right to conduct exploration activities on one mineral claim (“the Claim”). The legal title to the Claim was held by that corporation.
The Claim is located on the south end of Polley Lake approximately 90 kilometers northeast of the city of Williams Lake in the Cariboo Mining Division, British Columbia, Canada. The claim is approximately 500 meters long and 500 meters wide. To maintain the Claim, a fee of approximately $2,000 must be paid each year.
The Company decided not to pursue exploration activities on the Claim. On October 27, 2011, the related British Columbia corporation owned and controlled by the sole director and officer of the Company sold the Claim to a third party. The mineral claim interest has therefore been expensed and charged to mineral property costs in the current year.

FAIR VALUE OF ASSETS AND LIABILITIES
|
Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. U.S. GAAP requires that valuation techniques maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. ASC 820-10 Fair Value Measurements also establishes a fair value hierarchy which prioritizes the valuation inputs into three broad levels. Based on the underlying inputs, each fair value measurement in its entirety is reported in one of the three levels. These levels are:
Level 1 - Valuation is based upon quoted prices for identical instruments traded in active markets. Level 1 assets and liabilities include debt and equity securities traded in an active exchange market, as well as U.S. Treasury securities.
Level 2 - Valuation is based upon quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active, and model based valuation techniques for which all significant assumptions are observable in the market or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.
Level 3 - Valuation is determined using model-based techniques with significant assumptions not observable in the market.
The following tables present information about the Company’s financial instruments that have been measured at fair value as of December 31, 2011 and indicate the fair value hierarchy of the valuation inputs utilized to determine such fair values:

CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING
AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE
|
There have been no disagreements on accounting and financial disclosures from the inception of our company through the date of this report on Form 10-K. Our financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, included in this report, have been audited by Morgan & Co, Chartered Accountants, 700 West Georgia Street, Suite 1488, Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada V7Y 1A1.

ITEM 9A.

CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
|
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
As required by paragraph (b) of Rules 13a-15 or 15d-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, we evaluated our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this Annual Report on Form 10-K. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that as of the end of the period covered by this Annual Report on Form 10-K, these disclosure controls and procedures were adequate to ensure that the information required to be disclosed by us in reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the Securities and Exchange Commission and include controls and procedures designed to ensure that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues, if any, within our company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake.
Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over our financial reporting. In order to evaluate the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, as required by Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, management conducted an assessment, based upon criteria established in “Internal Control-Integrated Framework” issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”). Based on the evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our internal controls over financial reporting were effective as of December 31, 2011.
Our system of internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. In addition, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions and that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. This Annual Report does not include an attestation report of the Company’s registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting:
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended December 31, 2011 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

From May 2005 to May 2007, Mr. Baker was the secretary and a member of the board of directors of Marathon Gold Corp., a Nevada corporation engaged in the business of mining exploration. From November 2004 to December 2005, Mr. Baker was a director of Cierra Pacific Ventures Ltd. located in Vancouver, British Columbia. Cierra Pacific is engaged in the business of mining exploration. Cierra Pacific does not file reports with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission, but is listed for trading on the TSX Venture Exchange under the symbol CIZ.H. From October 2004 to June 2007, Mr. Baker was the secretary and a director of Tapango Resources Ltd. located in Vancouver, British Columbia. Tapango Resources is engaged in the business of mining exploration. Tapango Resources does not file reports with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission, but is listed for trading on the TSX Venture Exchange under the symbol TPA.H. From September 2004 to June 2006, Mr. Baker was a director and secretary of Tapestry Ventures Ltd. located in Vancouver, British Columbia. Tapestry Ventures is engaged in the business of mining exploration. Tapestry Ventures does not file reports with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission, but is listed for trading on the TSX Venture Exchange under the symbol TPV.H.

From June 2002 to October 2003, Mr. Baker was the president, principal executive officer, treasurer, principal financial officer and a member of the board of directors of TexEn Oil & Gas, Inc. From November 1998 to June 2002, Mr. Baker was a registered representative with Canaccord Capital Corporation, a Canadian broker/dealer registered with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission.
We believe that Mr. Baker is qualified to serve on our board of directors because of his knowledge of our company’s history and current operations, which he gained from working for our company as described above, together with his business experience, also described above.
Involvement in Certain Legal Proceedings
During the past ten years, our sole director and officer has not been involved in any of the following events:
1. any bankruptcy petition filed by or against any business of which such person was a general partner or executive officer either at the time of the bankruptcy or within two years prior to that time;
2. any conviction in a criminal proceeding or being subject to a pending criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations and other minor offences);
3. being subject to any order, judgment, or decree, not subsequently reversed, suspended or vacated, of any court of competent jurisdiction, permanently or temporarily enjoining, barring, suspending or otherwise limiting his involvement in any type of business, securities or banking activities;

5. being the subject of, or a party to, any federal or state judicial or administrative order, judgment, decree, or finding, not subsequently reversed, suspended or vacated, relating to an alleged violation of: (i) any federal or state securities or commodities law or regulation; or (ii) any law or regulation respecting financial institutions or insurance companies including, but not limited to, a temporary or permanent injunction, order of disgorgement or restitution, civil money penalty or temporary or permanent cease- and-desist order, or removal or prohibition order; or (iii) any law or regulation prohibiting mail or wire fraud or fraud in connection with any business entity; or
6. being the subject of, or a party to, any sanction or order, not subsequently reversed, suspended or vacated, of any self-regulatory organization (as defined in Section 3(a)(26) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934), any registered entity (as defined in Section 1(a)(29) of the Commodity Exchange Act), or any equivalent exchange, association, entity or organization that has disciplinary authority over its members or persons associated with a member.
Director Independence
Mr. Baker, our sole officer and director, is not independent. We have no nominating or compensation committees.
Audit Committee and Charter
Our audit committee is comprised of our board of directors. Our sole director is not deemed to be independent. This creates a potential conflict of interest. Our audit committee’s role is to oversee all material aspects of our reporting, control, and audit functions, except those specifically related to the responsibilities of any other standing committee of the board. This includes a particular focus on the qualitative aspects of financial reporting to shareholders and on our processes for the management of business/financial risk and for compliance with significant legal, ethical and regulatory requirements. In addition, the committee is responsible for (1) selection and oversight of our independent accountant; (2) establishing procedures for the receipt, retention and treatment of complaints regarding accounting, internal controls and auditing matters; (3) establishing procedures for the confidential, anonymous submission by our employees of concerns regarding accounting and auditing matters; (4) establishing internal financial controls; (5) engaging outside advisors; and, (6) funding for the external auditors and any outside advisors engagement by the audit committee.
Audit Committee Financial Expert
We are a reporting issuer in the Province of British Columbia, Canada. National Instrument 52-110 of the Canadian Securities Administrators requires our company, as a venture issuer, to disclose annually in our annual report certain information concerning the constitution of our audit committee and our relationship with our independent auditor. Our board of directors has determined that it does not have an audit committee member that qualifies as an “audit committee financial expert” as defined in Item 407(d)(5)(ii) of Regulation S-K. Our audit committee is composed of our sole director. We believe that the audit committee member is capable of analyzing and evaluating our financial statements and understanding internal controls and procedures for financial reporting. In addition, we believe that retaining an independent director who would qualify as an “audit committee financial expert” would be overly costly and burdensome and is not warranted in our circumstances given the early stages of our development and the fact that we have not generated revenues to date.
We have adopted a corporate code of ethics. We believe our code of ethics is reasonably designed to deter wrongdoing and promote honest and ethical conduct; provide full, fair, accurate, timely and understandable disclosure in public reports; comply with applicable laws; ensure prompt internal reporting of code violations; and provide accountability for adherence to the code. A copy of the code of ethics was filed as Exhibit 14.1 our 2008 Annual Report on Form 10-K as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 7, 2009.
Disclosure Committee and Charter
We have a disclosure committee and disclosure committee charter. Our disclosure committee is comprised of all of our officers and directors. The purpose of the committee is to provide assistance to the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer in fulfilling their responsibilities regarding the identification and disclosure of material information about us and the accuracy, completeness and timeliness of our financial reports. A copy of the disclosure committee charter was filed as Exhibit 99.3 our 2008 Annual Report on Form 10-K as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 7, 2009.
Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Compliance
Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, requires our executive officers and directors, and persons who beneficially own more than 10% of a registered class of our equity securities to file with the Securities and Exchange Commission initial statements of beneficial ownership, reports of changes in ownership and annual reports concerning their ownership of our common shares and other equity securities, on Forms 3, 4 and 5 respectively. Executive officers, directors and greater than 10% stockholders are required by the Securities and Exchange Commission regulations to furnish us with copies of all Section 16(a) reports they file. Based solely on our review of the copies of
such forms received by us, or written representations from the reporting persons, we believe that during our 2011 fiscal year, our officers, directors, and owners of 10% or more of our common stock filed all reports required by section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

Long-Term Incentive Plan Awards
We do not have any long-term incentive plans.
Compensation of Directors
We do not have any plans to pay our directors any money other than as detailed immediately below.
Employment Agreements
We have no employment agreements, however on February 21, 2012 a consulting agreement was fully executed between us and another company controlled by our director and officer, effective January 1, 2012 for a term of 48 months, whereby the other company has agreed to provide the services of its shareholder as our CEO, COO, CFO and Corporate Secretary. As compensation, we are to pay US$90,000 per annum, in equal monthly installments of $7,500, in arrears and plus applicable taxes. We also agreed to reimburse reasonable business and/or entertainment and automobile expenses during the duration of the consulting agreement.
Indemnification
Under our Bylaws, we may indemnify an officer or director who is made a party to any proceeding, including a lawsuit, because of his position, if he acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in our best interest. We may advance expenses incurred in defending a
proceeding. To the extent that the officer or director is successful on the merits in a proceeding as to which he is to be indemnified, we must indemnify him against all expenses incurred, including attorney's fees. With respect to a derivative action, indemnity may be made only for expenses actually and reasonably incurred in defending the proceeding, and if the officer or director is judged liable, only by a court order. The indemnification is intended to be to the fullest extent permitted by the laws of the State of Nevada.
Regarding indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933, which may be permitted to directors or officers under Nevada law, we are informed that, in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission, indemnification is against public policy, as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.
