Corporate History
 
We were incorporated in the State of Nevada on December 10, 1999 under the name HMI Technologies Inc. Following incorporation until January 1, 2006, we sought out prospective businesses with which to enter into a merger or business combination. On January 1, 2006, we entered into and closed an asset sale agreement with Max Weissengruber and D. Brian Robertson, whereby we acquired all of the assets related to the business as operated by Mr. Weissengruber and Mr. Robertson under the name “Freshwater Technologies” in consideration for the issuance of 40,000,000 common shares to each individual. Following the closing of the asset sale agreement, we commenced the business of distributing and selling drinking water products and water activation products. On July 5, 2006, we changed our name from HMI Technologies Inc. to Freshwater Technologies, Inc. to better reflect our new business direction. Following the closing of the asset sale agreement, we appointed Mr. Weissengruber as our President and director and Mr. B. Robertson as our Chief Financial Officer and director.
 
Summary of Current Business
 
We are a distributor of water treatment products to local distributors and retailers for industrial, manufacturing productivity, agricultural, commercial and household applications. Max Weissengruber, President is responsible for day-to-day business operations with specific responsibilities for marketing communications, website maintenance, investor relations and liaison with regulatory agencies. Brian Robertson, Chief Financial Officer is responsible for budgeting, treasury and comptroller functions. He also fills the specific role of Vice President of Sales, local distributor relations, training and sales support. Douglas Robertson, Secretary maintains corporate records and documentation of business decisions. These officers and directors are capable of managing our current level of business much of which is conducted by our local distributors and supported by our Vice President of Sales, our Director of Marketing for Latin America and our Southern Colombian sales agents.
 
We currently offer three product lines consisting of drinking water treatment products and water activation products. The drinking water treatment products feature Sterilight branded ultra violet products that are supplied to us by VIQUA, a manufacturer based out of Guelph, Ontario, Canada. Sterilight branded ultraviolet water treatment systems incorporate ultraviolet light energy that eradicates harmful microbiological contaminants in drinking water.Traditional disinfectant methods, such as chlorination, react with natural organic matter to produce objectionable taste and odor and also forms substances with known carcinogenic properties such as trihalomethane. Genetic components in organisms carry hereditary characteristics that are copied and transmitted from each cell of water borne contaminants such as bacteria, viruses and parasites. The Sterilight ultraviolet lamp emits powerful ultraviolet light energy which, when absorbed by these contaminants, causes disruption of the DNA Structure of those contaminants preventing reproduction. It is the prevention of reproduction by microbial contaminants that renders ultraviolet treated water safe for human consumption. Sterilight lamps provide consistent UV output over the 9,000 hour life of the lamp and uniform temperature distribution calculated to achieve the desired levels of decontamination.

Our drinking water treatment products also feature the ozone water treatment systems of Ozocan Corporation for the countries of Argentina, Chile, Peru, Costa Rica and Panama. As a proven disinfectant, ozone is more powerful than chlorine and, unlike chlorine, it discharges no potentially harmful substances into the environment. Used in a variety of water treatment applications, Ozocan’s products effectively treat municipal and industrial drinking water and wastewater and are used in bottled water applications as well as treating air conditioning and cooling tower installations. Ozocan systems can be found throughout the globe either as custom designed applications or in one of a number of standard sized units that can meet the effective treatment needs of a wide variety of customers.
 
Our water activation products are designed to improve the operating efficiency of commercial and industrial boilers and refrigeration systems without the use of chemicals as well as improving significantly the productivity results in certain manufacturing operations and agricutural Greenhouse facilities. Our water activation products are supplied by ELCE International Corp. In July, 2009 ELCE International Corp. agreed to supply us with its own FW branded water activation technology known as FW Aqua Transformer. We order units from ELCE International Corp. which are then shipped against customer orders or shipped directly to one of our local distributors located in Argentina, Chile, Colombia, Costa Rica, Panama and Peru. FW water activation treatment systems remove rust, scale and corrosion within heating and cooling systems. Additionally, FW Aqua Transformers improve productivity in both agricultural and manufacturing operations due to the FW Aqua Transformer’s capability to reduce the number of clusters in water molecules and reduce water surface tension. The FW Aqua Transformer units, which range in water flow capacity from 11 liters per minute to over 2,000 liters per minute, change water properties physically without removing or adding chemical impurities or minerals.
 
We will only purchase limited quantities of replacement filters and lamps for our water purification products for inventory as our distributors will be inventorying the majority of replacement parts. We will purchase all other finished product from our three supplier-manufacturers in quantities sufficient to satisfy product orders of our customers except for rental FW Aqua Transformers.
 
In January 2009, we signed a Joint Venture Agreement with ELCE International Corp., the company who has been our significant supplier for a number of years. In July 2009, we were approved for a private labelling program whereby all Water Activators made for our  rental or sale would now be labelled FW Aqua Transformers. In July, we introduced a FW Aqua Transformer rental program to our distributors and, as a result, we will inventory rental units installed by our distributors at their customers. Pursuant to the joint venture agreement, ELCE International will supply its FW Aqua Transformer units at manufacturer’s cost to Freshwater and will participate with Freshwater to market and sell FW products in Argentina, Chile, Columbia, Costa Rica, Panama and Peru. ELCE International Corp. has compiled technical information on Activator equipment installed world-wide in a variety of commercial, industrial, agricultural and aquacultural applications. We intend to target industries and companies for whom ELCE has already provided effective solutions in terms of eliminating or reducing encrustations and corrosion, improving energy efficiency and improving productivity and output. The Joint Venture Agreement with ELCE International expired on January 25th, 2011but both companies have verbally agreed to work together in advancing the Water Activation products and will pursue a formal contract during 2011.
 
The essential elements of the FW device lie in the properties of its ceramic balls, hardened to 1200 degrees Centigrade. As water passes through the stainless steel chamber containing the ceramic balls, the balls rotate and rub against each other generating several forms of electrical energy which act to reduce and eliminate the accumulated rust, scale and corrosion that is caused by minerals and salts in the source water. As a result, FW water activation eliminates the conventional use and ongoing costs of continually using chemicals to clean out deposits within heating and cooling systems.
 
In manufacturing and agricultural operations, as a result of FW activated water decreasing the surface tension of the water and reducing the number of clusters in a water molecule, productivity is increased in many applications.
 
Although our Joint Venture Agreement with ELCE International Corp. expired on January 25, 2011, we continue to work with ELCE International Corp. under a verbal non-exclusive distribution agreement. We have formalized our relationship with VIQUA and Ozocan Corporation pursuant to non-exclusive distribution agreements. We also offer a full line of accessories, replacement parts and services compatible with all types of our water treatment systems.
 
Currently, we market our products through local distributors and agents in Argentina, Chile, Columbia, Costa Rica, Panama and Peru. These specific markets were selected because we have the ability to conduct business in Spanish and have been able to enter into business relationships with firms and individuals with existing commercial customers and the technical resources to sell, install and service our products. In addition, Central and South America are areas where the depth and breadth of competitive products is not as intense as other more developed markets such as North America and Europe. All of our product lines are chemical free technologies which are gaining more and more support by the general public and increased regulatory attention. Once we have secured the interest of potential local distributors, our Vice President of Sales and/or our Director of Marketing and Sales for Latin America visits the country in question to determine if the potential local partner has an existing business with the required technical capability to represent our products. Our initial focus is in the water activation products area since we do have available activators for the boiler and refrigeration/cooling products already sold by local distributors and are testing activators in the manufacturing and agricutural areas. Once an agreement is signed, our Vice President of Sales or Director of Latin American Marketing delivers on site training programs for each local distributor and regularly accompanies local partners on sales presentations to answer questions and provide technical support. We receive ongoing product and technical support from ELCE International which is usually provided in Spanish. Communication with local distributors is maintained on a regular basis with quick responses to questions or inquiries from our distributors.

As a marketing initiative, we also offer training and technical information to local distributors, through our Director of Latin American Marketing, who may then pass on such knowledge and information to the end-user. Our primary objective in the short-to-medium term is to establish an initial customer base in every market we enter. We have found that if potential customers can see our products in a nearby location and talk with the owner of our products, that third party support is critical in growing our business. As a result of the specific definition of our target markets and the fact that we are in the development stage of operations, we have focused on the development of distribution alliances as the preferred means of business development. We intend to leverage external resources provided by our local distributors and satisfied customers to minimize overhead and to seek market development by tapping into existing client pools of distributors. These arrangements may take the form of a distribution agreement, joint venture or partnership agreement.  We believe that without well-established, reputable local partners, it is difficult to manage the language, culture and business practices of foreign territories.
 
To date, the cost of our FW Aqua Transformers compare with other methods of treating scale, rust and corrosion in heating and cooling systems and are a one time cost when compared with the never ending cost of chemicals in chemical methods of removing such water based encrustations. We have learned that industrial and commercial customers are financially able to purchase our water activation products which cost a very small amount when compared with the cost they pay for boiler and refrigeration equipment. In addition, FW Aqua Transformers are designed to maximize operational efficiency by removing rust, scale and corrosion which can increase energy costs and cause production shutdowns and reduce the equipment life of water based heating and cooling systems.
 
The VIQUA ultraviolet units are marketed to middle and higher income households who want to directly control the safety of their household drinking water supplies.
 
In terms of drinking water treatment systems, all competitive technologies such as chlorination, reverse osmosis, desalinization and ion exchange require some form of electricity in order to function. A normal household ultra violet water treatment system, which requires a sediment filter, uses the equivalent electricity of a 40 watt light bulb. To eliminate sulphur and other taste affecting odors, a carbon filter is also recommended.
 
We believe that we can develop a distribution network by offering proven chemical free and competitively priced products to our distributors. Through our distribution network, we hope to derive recurring sales and rental revenue from sources, such as servicing potable water equipment, the sale of replacement parts, filters and other consumables. Our distribution network may enable us to offer appropriate solutions to water problems for residential and commercial customers through a combination of testing, product selection, installation, monitoring and service. We also intend to use a distribution network as a way to consider new product lines and enter new markets once a determination of potential need has been made. Distributors are requested to purchase all their requirements for water treatment products from us. As we do not manufacture our products, we are not required to invest in capital intensive infrastructure that is necessary to complete the manufacturing process. We will only purchase limited quantities of replacement filters and lamps for our water purification products for inventory as our distributors will be inventorying the majority of replacement parts. We will purchase all other finished product from our three supplier-manufacturers in quantities sufficient to satisfy product orders of our customers except for rental FW Aqua Transformers.
 
Environmental Compatibility
 
We represent 3 water treatment suppliers all on a non-exclusive basis and sells water treatment products through distributors and agents.
 
The most significant competitive business condition in both the drinking water and scale elimination water treatment industry sectors in which we operate is the ever increasing degree of environmental protection requirements imposed on suppliers of water treatment products. Growing public and governmental concerns over the introduction of potentially harmful materials into surface and groundwater supplies has resulted in increasingly stringent product performance requirements and methods of treatment for both drinking water and industrial/commercial water treatment applications.
 
The US Office of Technology Policy has clearly identified the fact that water treatment products must match and comply with emerging environmental regulations.
 
Drinking Water Equipment Competition
 
Ultra Violet water treatment is a widely accepted chemical free disinfection system which effecvtively destroys microbial contaminants without adding any harmful substances to water supplies eliminating the possibility of any harmful by products created during the disinfection process. Viqua, our UV supplier, is a major international supplier of a wide range of ultra violet drinking water products. Viqua UV disinfection systems clearly are competitive and effectively meet the critical business condition of environmentally compatible treatment processes.
 
Other drinking water technologies include chlorine based technology, which faces increased regulatory scrutiny due to its use of harsh chemicals and various filtration methods including reverse osmosis which are also chemical free. Buying decisions are based on price competitiveness as well as established distribution capabilities to provide local sales and service capabilities.
 
We also represent Ozocan Ltd., an international designer of ozone drinking water treatment systems with installations around the world. Like ultra violet disinfection, ozone is a chemical free disinfection system that is 52% stronger than chlorine and has been shown to be effective over a much wider spectrum of microorganisms than chlorine and other disinfectant agents. Ozone, unlike other chemically-based disinfectants, leaves no chemical residue in water courses and kills microorganisms through oxidizing their cell membranes efficiently and in a relatively short time period. Ozocan provides both customized as well as standardized production models and provides both installation and servicing of its treatment systems with performance requirement specifically tailored to the overall regulatory and water supply conditions for each application. Ozocan is able to compete internationally both on environmental safety, price and specific performance treatment for each specific installation site.

Non-Drinking Water Products Competition
 
Our  major competitive product is the FWAqua Transformer, a non chemical treatment using water activation to eliminate the accumulation of scale, rust and corrosion, caused by minerals found in most water supplies, in heating and cooling systems found in a wide range of industrial, commercial and institutional applications. FW Aqua Transformers operate by the introduction of water through a stainless steel cylinder containing highly hardened ceramic balls. The action of the water agitates the ceramic balls producing several forms of electricity which work to reduce and eliminate the encrustations formed in heating and cooling systems. FW Aqua Transformers are replacing the use of harsh chemicals which traditionally have been used to reduce encrustations only to have new formations which have to once again be treated with harsh chemicals, the residue of which find their way into water supplies. FWAqua Transformers change the physical properties of treated water by reducing the number of clusters in water molecules and surface tension of the water with no chemical changes to the water. Competitors in the heating and cooling water treatment sectors include chemical treatment methods which are effective but discharge dangerous chemicals to water supplies on a regular basis.There are also several  magnetic based treatment technologies which are chemical free but which are generally more expensive both in terms of the equipment itself and the cost of electrical power too operate the magnetized units. FW water activation is, to the best of our knowledge, the only commercially available water treatment technology that uses the flow of water over hardened ceramic beads to create electrical forces that remove and eliminate rust, scale and corrosion in heating and cooling systems. Equipment payback is often in less than two years and the product carries a ten year manufacturer’s guarantee whereas chemical treatment and magnetic technologies have ongoing costs for either chemicals or electrical consumption.
 
All three of our water treatment systems effectively meet the important environmental compatibility business condition governing world wide water treatment business. Viqua, Ozocan and FWAqua Transformers are all chemical free systems that introduce no harmful contaminants into water courses and meet international regulations for water treatment and permit us to compete in international water treatment markets providing products that provide effective treatment solutions in an environmentally friendly manner.
 
Price Competitiveness
 
The water treatment industry is characterized by a large number of both large and smaller suppliers with consumer decisions often based as much on price as well as performance. Systems supplied to industrial, commercial and industrial customers do dwell more heavily on detailed technical requirements with price still being a factor but not as dominant as in the case of individual consumers.
 
Drinking Water Systems
 
Given the large number of competing technologies such as chlorine, ultra violet, ozonation, reverse osmosis and various filtration methods and the many individual suppliers, price competiveness is an important customer criterion. Both Viqua and Ozocan offer products that are competitive with similar competing technologies and success is determined by how well we provide customers with convincing benefits that meet customer performance expectations and price parameters.
 
Industrial Commercial Systems
 
FWAqua Transformers successfully compete with traditional purveyors of chemical treatment for removal of scale, rust and corrosion in heating and cooling applications. We offer a ten-year manufacturer’s guarantee and minimal maintenance. Chemical competitors have to continually provide chemicals over the same ten-year period whereas FWAqua Transformers often can result in full payback in less than two years. Furthermore, our solution reduces energy consumption; another cost savings for Freshwater customers that allow for significant pricing benefits to be offered by us.
 
In regards to the crucial issue of being price competitive, we are able to effectively compete in the highly competitive drinking water market and may have a pricing advantage over chemical-based competitors in the industrial/commercial marketplace once comparisons of the ten-year cost of chemical treatments are made with the ten-year manufacturers’ guarantee.
 
After Sales Service
 
Given the importance of both safe drinking water and efficient heating and cooling systems, customers are concerned that their water treatment suppliers are readily available to provide advice, replacement parts, trouble shooting and regular maintenance. Service responsiveness is a critical competitive business condition especially given the detailed technical considerations involved in many water treatment installations.
 
Suppliers of water treatment solutions who are readily accessible to their customer base are in a better position to provide the kind of service responsiveness that customers are seeking.
 
When a customer proposal is prepared, we try to incorporate a service-related element in its pricing strategy, especially for larger, more complex industrial, commercial and institutional customers. Our distribution network concentrates on serving customers in their immediate geographical areas and is readily available to respond to any customer concerns. If there are detailed technical matters involved, we consult with each of our three equipment suppliers to obtain the advice and solutions required for its potential, as well as existing, customers. Our local sales and technical consultants who deal with our larger, more complex installations make regular visits to monitor operations and ongoing contact to support our customers.

Ongoing Research and Development Activities
 
In order to compete with the large number of players in the water treatment industry, water treatment suppliers cannot afford to stand still in terms of product design and performance enhancements. Given the increasing regulation over more and more contaminants and higher performance expectations required both by regulatory agencies and individual customers, industry players must be able to devote sufficient resources to keep abreast of regulatory requirements, general advancements in water treatment technology and what they can learn from the operational concerns of their own customers.
 
We are fortunate in that all three of our equipment suppliers devote significant resources and efforts to upgrade performance of their respective product lines. This may involve consultation with university and technical institutions, access to the significant body of scientific and technical information, technical personnel attached to regulatory and governmental agencies as well as a company’s reliance on its own sales and technical personnel who have regular contact with customer issues and concerns.
 
Our corporate personnel maintain close contact with its distribution network and personnel to review and provide ongoing technical and product information and solutions.
 
Drinking Water Products
 
We represent a wide range of ultraviolet drinking water products, all of which are provided to us by VIQUA, pursuant to our non-exclusive distribution agreement. VIQUA manufactures all products in Ontario, Canada. All of the drinking water products that we distribute incorporate ultraviolet technology to sterilize and clean drinking water. Ultraviolet disinfection is a well-established, economical and chemical free process that offers a 99.9% reduction in bacteria, parasites and viruses in drinking water. Ultraviolet technology imparts no chemical residues to the water supply and management believes the technology represents the most simple and cost-effective way to treat drinking water supplies. Water is treated as it passes through a chamber where it is exposed to ultraviolet radiation. The VIQUA Sterilight disinfection lamps emit a powerful light energy which, when absorbed by contaminants such as bacteria, viruses and parasites, causes the disruption of the DNA structure of the contaminants preventing reproduction of the fixed genetic components or unique characteristics of each microbial contaminant. The prevention of reproduction of contaminants is what renders ultra violet treated water safe for human consumption.
 
VIQUA’s ultraviolet products range from 1-2 gallons per minute weighing 11 lbs. to larger units that can treat 1,000 gallons per minute weighing 1,100 pounds. The company has one of the widest ranges of sizes and types of ultraviolet water treatment systems, which make and assemble all of its products in the Guelph, Ontario, Canada manufacturing facility.
 
Ultra violet technology is well established and NSF International, a non profit agency based in Ann Arbor, Michigan established standards for drinking water products. In October of 2002, NSF International and the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) agreed to form a Drinking Water technologies Agency to develop technical evaluation of drinking water technologies. Standard 55A certification for ultra violet systems means that products certified under Standard 55 A are able to disinfect or remove microorganisms from contaminated drinking water, including bacteria and viruses. VIQUA’s ultra violet products sold by Freshwater Technologies are certified under Standard 55A. Information on NSF International and its programs can be found at www.nsf.org.
 
The technology utilized in our drinking water products exposes water to an ultraviolet purification cycle which provides protection against bacteria and other organic matter. Our water purification system operates as follows: Sterilight ultraviolet water sterilizers incorporate natural ultraviolet light energy to eradicate water borne contaminants such as bacteria, viruses and parasites. Water enters through the bottom part of the ultraviolet reactor chamber and swirls around a low pressure mercury vapor lamp protected by a quartz sleeve. The UV lamp emits powerful ultraviolet light energy at a wave length of 253.7 nm. Genetic components contained in the microorganisms absorb the light energy which disrupts the DNA and prevents reproduction. Treated water then exits through the top part of the chamber and is ready for human consumption.

Water Activation Products
 
We currently can supply approximately 15 different sizes of FWAqua Transformers, all of which are manufactured and supplied to us by ELCE International Corp. ELCE International Corp. manufactures all products and ships such products to us upon request or directly to our distributors.
 
Industrial and commercial boiler and refrigeration systems typically rely on water as the medium through which the heat exchange process is achieved. An energy source such as oil, electricity or natural gas is required to operate the conversion to a heating or cooling function. Most water sources, however, naturally contain minerals or salts that create rust and sediment buildup in the water supply system. The result is the gradual accumulation of these materials which reduces the efficiency of operating systems and increases energy costs. Conventional treatment of these operating problems has been through the use of chemicals to remove the deposits which result in increased facility maintenance, labor and chemical costs.
 
Our FW water activation products process water physically without removing or adding chemical impurities. The device is able to remove the mineral and salt buildup by passing water over hardened ceramic balls inside a stainless steel container. As the water passes through and around the ceramic balls, several types of electrical energies are created.  The activated water resulting from these electrical energies causes a gradual erosion of the accumulations of solid materials inside the water system. After a period of several months, depending upon the amount of accumulation, the water system is cleansed and future accumulation of minerals and salts is prevented. The accumulated material is broken down into very tiny pieces which are purged from the systems, with larger forms of residue captured by bag filters and, in the case of boilers, there are scheduled shutdown periods when accumulated material is cleaned out from the bottom of the boiler. Once existing deposits are removed, FWAqua Transformers’ activation process prevents the deposition of any new deposits in the equipment.
 
All FWAqua Transformers are similar in design. A stainless steel cylinder contains a precisely defined number of highly hardened ceramic balls to a certain height within the stainless steel chamber. Activators range from units with a flow capacity of 13 liters per minute, weighing 5 kilograms to large Activators with a flow capacity of over 2,100 liters per minute, weighing over 1,300 kilograms standing 2,200 millimeters high.
 
The water activation technology in our products offers the following benefits:
 
1. 
Elimination of chemicals;
 
2. 
A reduction in operating costs;
 
3. 
Reduced maintenance costs and labor time;
 
4. 
A 10-year full replacement guarantee;
 
5. 
No environmental impacts;
 
6. 
Energy savings;
 
7. 
Ease of installation and no maintenance; and
 
8. 
Prolonged equipment life as no corrosive chemicals are used.
 
Potential customers are able to observe the operation of the technology. Once the operating benefits are demonstrated, including the potential cost savings involved, customers have the option to either purchase or lease the equipment from our distributors.

Sales and Marketing
 
Drinking Water
 
Although ultra violet technology is a chemical free process, that fact, in and of itself, may not be sufficient reason for a customer to purchase an ultra violet system. There is some routine maintenance required to keep the lamp free from particle accumulation and filters installed as part of an ultra violet solution have to be changed periodically. Ultra violet lamps have a defined period of use beyond which they may not function effectively. These factors place significant responsibility on local distributors to fully understand and be able to explain the benefits and features of our ultra violet products.
 
We rely exclusively upon local distributors for the marketing and sale of our products. We have distributors in 6 Countries in South and Central America. We solicit local distributor candidates through our Director of Latin American marketing and in direct contact with local mechanical, heating and cooling firms. Distributor recruitment efforts will be supported by appropriate sales literature highlighting our products and technologies as well as our website and our suppliers’ websites. If we are able to secure financing, we intend to provide a marketing program to support our local distributors. We intend to develop the marketing program so that it consists of Spanish language sales literature, regional advertising in health magazines, newspapers and news magazines in the language of the country in question. The target market for our drinking water products consists of both individual household and commercial consumers since VIQUA has products that can provide safe drinking water from 1.5 gallons per minute to 1000 gallons per minute. The household market includes the sale of water purification products, some of which are installed at the point-of-entry to a residential water system, as well as point-of-use filtration systems designed to improve the quality of drinking water. Household point-of-entry and point-of-use water treatment systems are used to remove bacteria, parasites and viruses in drinking water. Customer requirements for our drinking water products vary by geographical region as a result of differing water qualities and problems. We also offer a wide range of products for commercial customers through Ozocan Corporation. Commercial users require water treatment systems that remove health-related contaminants from the available water supply and are capable of treating large quantities of water on a cost effective basis.
 
Water Activation
 
We choose to market our water activation products to local distributors who already supply boiler and refrigeration equipment to commercial and industrial customers. In addition to selling original boiler and refrigeration equipment, our local distributors also may have service contracts to maintain equipment. Our local partners are now converting some of their customers to water activation equipment replacing the ongoing cost of purchasing, storing and handling of chemicals which also introduce potentially hazardous materials into the environment. Customers may either purchase our products outright or lease such products if they wish to remove accumulated buildup in their water systems. For production uses for manufacturing and agricultural customers, we are currently marketing the water activator through our agents.
 
Training and Technical Information
 
We provide local distributors with a variety of services, including initial training and product familiarization as well as ongoing education and technical assistance in each country where we operate. We offer regular bi monthly on site management, sales, installation and service support. We realize the importance of working directly in person with our local distributors. In addition, we maintain a system of weekly contact with each distributor plus 2-5 country visits each year. We also update technical and product information on our website as well as assist local distributors in the preparation of sales proposals and often participate directly in making sales calls and sales presentations with our local distributors. We do not charge the local distributors for our training and technical information or related services.
 
Our commercial products use technologies similar to our household products, but afford greater capacity, durability and effectiveness and allow customers increased flexibility for customization. For example, commercial customers in the beverage industry may use our products as they require consistent quality water to enable them to preserve uniformity of taste and appearance in their products, to reduce health-related contaminants and minimize equipment maintenance costs.
 
Technology
 
All technologies utilized within our products have either been developed or sourced and tested by our sole suppliers, ELCE International Corp., VIQUA and Ozocan Corporation. The principal technologies utilized in our drinking water products are ultraviolet sterilization techniques widely recognized as an effective and affordable chemical free water treatment technology that meets NSF/EPA drinking water standards for ultraviolet systems and exceeds U.S. Public Health Standards. Standard 55 A for ultraviolet treatment systems certifies equipment that can provide safe drinking water from water supplies containing microbial contaminants harmful to human health. VIQUA’s ultraviolet products sold by Freshwater Technologies have received NSF certification under Standard 55A.
 
Ozocan Corporation’s products use ozone as a proven disinfectant; ozone is one and ½ times more powerful than chlorine and, unlike chlorine, it discharges no potentially harmful substances into the environment. Used in a variety of water treatment applications, Ozocan’s products effectively treat municipal and industrial drinking water and waste water and are used in bottled water applications as well as treating air conditioning and cooling water installations.
 
The principal technologies utilized in our water activation products are electrolytic fluidization with the use of special ceramic materials. The friction caused by water flowing around the ceramic balls generates several types of electrical energies. The inventor of water activation units, has provided the following summary of some of the technologies used in their water activation units:
 
 
7

 
 
Electrical Energy Forms
 
 
Pyroelectricity: Energy generated by electrons coming out of the ceramics and produced by the temperature differences between the ceramic’s outer surface and water or between the inner and outer areas of the unit.
 
 
Piezoelectricity: This form of energy is created by changes in water pressure as water passes around the ceramics or by a change in pressure between the ceramic balls themselves.
 
 
Frictional electricity: This electrical charge is produced by the friction generated between the ceramic balls themselves or caused by the combination of the collision between the ceramic balls and the water passing through the stainless steel cylinder.
 
Intellectual Property
 
We do not currently own any intellectual property other than our registered domain name of www.freshwatertechnologies.ca, which we have the right to renew every two years.
 
Research and Development
 
We do not carry out any independent research and development of our drinking water products. All research and development is carried out by VIQUA and Ozocan Corporation in regards to our drinking water products.
 
Currently, we are testing our FWAqua Transformer on agicultural applications in Colombia.  All other research and development is carried out by ELCE International Corp. in regards to our water activation products.
 
Warranty
 
ELCE International Corp. provides a 10 year replacement guarantee on its water activation units provided the unit is installed according to manufacturer’s specifications. VIQUA’s Sterilight systems carry a 7 year warranty on the stainless steel reactor chamber, a 1 year warranty on UV lamps and monitor probes, and a 5 year pro rated warranty on all other components.
 
Government Approval
 
Neither our company nor our company’s products or services are regulated by governments in any of our markets and no permits specific to our industry are required in order for us to operate or to sell our products and services. VIQUA has received NSF approval for meeting ultraviolet drinking water standards which are generally higher than standards in the countries where we sell ultraviolet products. Some jurisdictions, like the EPA in the United States, have developed drinking water standards which can be achieved with a variety of technologies but not with direct regulation of such devices themselves.
 
Environmental Issues
 
To our knowledge, neither the sale nor the distribution of our products constitute activities or generate materials, in a material manner, that require compliance with federal, state or local environmental laws in any jurisdictions of our operation. Our ultraviolet water treatment systems must meet drinking water standards in any jurisdictions where we maintain business operations. NSF International, the Non Profit agency certifies, in conjunction with the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), ultra violet products that will meet NSF Standard 55A for effective treatment of water borne bacteria and viruses. VIQUA’s products sold by Freshwater Technologies have been certified as meeting NSF Standard 55A which exceeds drinking water standards established in other countries.
 
Employees
 
We are currently operated by Max Weissengruber as our President, D. Brian Robertson as our Treasurer, Chief Financial Officer and Vice-President of Sales and Douglas R. Robertson as our Secretary. We also have a Senior Operations consultant, a Director of Marketing and Sales for Latin America, two sales agents in Colombia, a marketing services consultant and a web development consultant. As a development stage company, we are currently able to manage our business with these consulting personnel. We rely extensively on our local distributors supported by our Vice President of Sales and Director of Latin America Sales to generate sales of our products. We also receive technical support from our three product suppliers VIQUA, Ozocan Corp. and ELCE International. We also retain the technical services of Graham Linttell for shipping and installation assistance. Periodically, we may periodically hire independent contractors to execute our marketing, sales, and business development functions. We may hire employees when circumstances warrant. If it does become necessary, we intend to carry out any such hiring on a contract basis.

The following discussion contains forward-looking statements that reflect our plans, estimates and beliefs. Our actual results could differ materially from those discussed in the forward looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to, those discussed below and elsewhere in this annual report.
 
Our audited financial statements are stated in United States dollars and are prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles.
 
Results of Operations for the Period from January 21, 2005 (date of inception) to December 31, 2010
 
The financial statements have been restated to reflect the operations of Freshwater Technologies, Inc. from the date of its inception, January 21, 2005. During the period from January 21, 2005 (date of inception) to December 31, 2010, we generated $477,307 in revenue. This revenue was generated from sales of both our drinking water products and water activation products with the majority or 98% of the sales consisting of ELCE International Corp. water activation units in Peru, Panama and Costa Rica. The cost of sales on these orders was $214,999 resulting in a gross profit of 55%.
 
During the period from January 21, 2005 to December 31, 2010, our operating expenses totaled $2,909,070. Amotization of intangible assets was $667,056; consulting costs were $283,000; general and administrative expenses were $550,703; marketing and sales expenses and consulting expenses totaled $688,051; and professional fees were $258,646. Imputed interest, on Director’s loans, totaled $115,186 and commission expense on water activation equipment rentals amounted to $5,900. A provision in the amount of $340,528 was made for sales that were deemed to be uncollectable net of recoveries to December 31, 2010 as these sales were in excess of one year old. We recorded a gain on settlement of debt in the amount of $99,709 and an accretion of discounts on convertible notes payable in the amount of $59,452.
 
We reported a net loss of $2,606,505 for the period from date of inception to December 31, 2010.
 
Results of Operations for the Years Ended December 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009
 
During the year ended December 31, 2010, we generated $349 in sales revenue compared with $15,159 for the year ended December 31, 2009. The decrease in sales is a result of less volume of sales due to stiffer competition. Cost of sales for the year ended December 31, 2010 was $181 or 52% of sales as compared with cost of sales of $546 for comparable drinking water equipment sales or 62% of sales for the year ended December 31, 2009. The balance of our sales for the 2009 fiscal year of $14,275 represented sales and rentals of water activation equipment previously written off. For the year ended December 31, 2010 our gross profit was 48% of sales of drinking water equipment compared with gross profit of 38% of sales during the year ended December 31, 2009.
 
During the year ended December 31, 2010, our operating expenses totalled $1,051,171 as compared to $604,991 for the year ended December 31, 2009. Amortization of intangible assets representing costs incurred to acquire product distribution rights under the joint venture agreement with ELCE International Corp. amounted to $344,866 for the year ended December 31, 2010 compared with $322,190 for the year ended December 31, 2009. Professional fees amounted to $70,408 for the year ended December 31, 2010 as compared to $45,786 for the year ended December 31, 2009 with the main increases being attributable to legal fees incurred for our convertible note financing and increased legal and accounting fees. Marketing and sales expenses and consultants’ costs were $237,591 for the year ended December 31, 2010 as compared to $242,913 for the year ended December 31, 2009. This decrease is due to a decrease in costs relating to our Joint Venture Agreement with ELCE International Corp. of $67,936, a decrease in travel expenses and fees for our Director of Latin America sales of $6,430, an increase due to the marketing services consulting agreement of $68,109, a decrease in fees and expenses for our Agent in Colombia of $1,855 and an increase in Central/South America travel of $2,790. General and administrative expenses were $414,891 during the year ended December 31, 2010 as compared to $22,577 for the year ended December 31, 2009. This increase is due to our entering into consulting service agreements during 2010 for general consulting services, research and development consulting services, web site update consulting services and environmental technical consulting services of $188,376, public relations and shareholder communication consulting services agreements and related costs of $199,850, an increase in interest on convertible notes of $6,319 offset by a decrease in other general and administrative costs of $2,231. Imputed interest on directors’ loans was $7,965 for the year ended December 31, 2010 as compared to $9,163 for the year ended December 31, 2009. This decrease reflects lesser amounts owing to directors during 2010. For the year ended December 31, 2010 we recovered $24,550 of sales previously written off as compared to $43,538 for the year ended December 31, 2009. Commission expense on rental revenue was nil for the year ended December 31, 2010 compared to $5,900 for the year ended December 31, 2009. Accretion of discounts on two convertible notes issued in May 2010, one convertible note issued in July 2010 and one convertible note issued in September 2010 amounted to $59,452 for the year ended December 31, 2010 compared to nil for the year ended December 31, 2009. During the year ended December 31, 2010 we recorded no gain on settlement of debt as compared to $97,709 for the year ended December 31, 2009.
 
We reported a net loss of $1,110,455 for the year ended December 31, 2010 as compared to a net loss of $492,669 for the year ended December 31, 2009.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
 
Presently, our revenue is not sufficient to meet our operating and capital expenses. Management projects that we will require additional funding to expand our current operations. There is some doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern as the continuation of our business is dependent upon successful and sufficient market acceptance of our products and maintaining a break even or profitable level of operations.
 
We have incurred operating losses since inception, and this is likely to continue into the year ending December 31, 2011. Management projects that we may require an additional $1,000,000 to $1,400,000 to fund our operating expenditures for the next twelve month period. Projected working capital requirements for the next twelve month period are broken down as follows:
 
Estimated Working Capital Expenditures During the Next Twelve Month Period
 
Operating expenditures
     
Marketing
  $ 400,000 - 500,000  
General and Administrative
  $ 50,000 - 75,000  
Legal and Accounting
  $ 50,000 - 75,000  
Working capital
  $ 400,000 - 600,000  
Repayment of Directors’ Advances
  $ 100,000 - 150,000  
Total
  $ 1,000,000 - 1,400,000  
 
Our cash on hand as at December 31, 2010 was $371. As at December 31, 2010, we had negative working capital of $191,238. We require funds to enable us to address our minimum current and ongoing expenses and to continue with marketing and promotion activity connected with the development and marketing of our products.
 
We anticipate that our cash on hand and the revenue that we anticipate generating going forward from our operations will not be sufficient to satisfy all of our cash requirements for the next twelve month period. If we require any additional monies during this time, we plan to raise any such additional capital primarily through the private placement of our securities, borrowing money from third parties or borrowing further amounts from our Directors. We will continue to seek additional funds from our Directors to fund our day to day operations until a private placement can be pursued but we have no guarantee that our directors will continue to fund our day to day operations.
 
The weakening of economic conditions around the world could have harmful effects on our business. Weakening economic conditions generally lead to less money being spent on luxuries, which water treatment products may be considered by many to be. If consumers spend less and do not choose to spend their limited funds on our water treatment products, we will earn less revenue then we currently plan to and we will be less likely to achieve profitable operations.
 
The economic problems will likely also have a negative impact on the amount of money we may expect to raise through sales of our equity securities. Many investors have not returned to the market due to declining share prices across many economic sectors that had occurred in prior years. Because of this and other market factors, if we choose to raise funds through the sale of our equity securities, potential investors may be less likely to buy our equity securities or we may be need to sell our equity securities at low prices, resulting in fewer proceeds. This would make it difficult for us to raise adequate amounts to fund our operations through the sale of our equity securities.
 
 
14

 
 
Some of our customers or suppliers could experience serious cash flow problems due to the current economic situation. If our customers or suppliers attempt to increase their prices, pass through increased costs, alter payment terms or seek other relief, our business may suffer from decreased sales to final consumers or increased costs to us. If any of our vendors or suppliers go out of business, we may not be able to replace them with other companies of the same quality and level of service. If the quality of our products and promptness of delivery deteriorates as a result, our revenue will likely decrease as retailers and consumers would be less likely to choose our products out of those available to them.
 
If we are unable to fund our operations through revenues or the sale of our equity securities, then we may choose to borrow money to pay for some of our operations. A tightening of credit conditions continues to be experienced in the economy. Because of this credit crisis, it is possible that we would not be able to borrow adequate amounts to fund our operations on terms and at rates of interest we find acceptable and in our best interests.
 
If we cannot fund our planned operations from revenue, the sale of our equity securities or through incurring debt on acceptable terms, then we will likely have to scale down or cease our operations. If we scale down our operations, our share price would likely decrease and if we cease our operations, shareholders will likely lose their entire investment in our company.
 
We do not expect that the difficult economic conditions are likely to improve significantly in the near future, and further deterioration of the economy, and even consumer fear that the economy will deteriorate further, could intensify the adverse effects of these difficult market conditions.
 
Due to the uncertainty of our ability to meet our current operating and capital expenses, in their report on our audited annual financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009, our independent auditors included an explanatory paragraph regarding concerns about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our financial statements contain additional note disclosures describing the circumstances that led to this disclosure by our independent auditors. There is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern as the continuation and expansion of our business is dependent upon obtaining further financing, successful and sufficient market acceptance of our products, and, finally, achieving a profitable level of operations. The issuance of additional equity securities by us could result in a significant dilution in the equity interests of our current stockholders. Obtaining commercial loans, assuming those loans would be available, will increase our liabilities and future cash commitments. Fundraising continues to be one of our primary objectives over the next twelve months. Our financial requirements for the next twelve months will depend on our ability to raise the money we require through credit facilities and additional private placements of our equity securities to our directors and shareholders or new shareholders. The issuance of additional equity securities by us may result in a significant dilution in the equity interests of our current shareholders. Even though we have determined that we may not have sufficient working capital for the next twelve month period, we have not yet pursued such financing options. There is no assurance that we will be able to obtain further funds required for our continued operations or that additional financing will be available to us when needed or, if available, that it can be obtained on commercially reasonable terms. If we are not able to obtain the additional financing on a timely basis, we will not be able to meet our other obligations as they become due and we will be forced to scale down or perhaps even cease our operations.

On July 21, 2010, we entered into an investor relations, public relations and corporate communications services agreement commencing July 22, 2010 for a period of three months in exchange for the issuance of 2,000,000 restricted common shares.
 
On June 7, 2010, we entered into a technical environmental consulting services agreement with a consultant whereby we issued 5,000,000 common shares for technical environmental consulting services to be rendered over a six month period. On October 7, 2010, we extended the technical environmental consulting services agreement with a consultant whereby we issued 5,000,000 common shares for technical environmental consulting services to be rendered over a six month period commencing December 7, 2010.
 
On May 5, 2010, we entered into a six month Public Relations and Corporate Communication Service Agreement whereby we issued 9,000,000 restricted shares of Class A common stock to Equitytrend Advisors LLC.
 
On February 22, 2010, we entered into a one year web development consulting services agreement whereby we issued 3,000,000 common shares for web development consulting services to be rendered over a one year period. The shares were issued under the 2010 Stock Plan and were registered on Form S-8 filed on January 26, 2010.
 
On February 22, 2010, we entered into a one year marketing consulting services agreement whereby we issued 4,000,000 common shares for marketing consulting services to be rendered over a one year period. The shares were issued under the 2010 Stock Plan and were registered on Form S-8 filed on January 26, 2010.
 
In January 2010, we entered into a one year business consulting services agreement whereby we issued 6,000,000 common shares, on January 25, 2010, for business consulting services to be rendered over a one year period. The shares were issued under the 2010 Stock Plan and were registered on Form S-8 filed on January 26, 2010.
 
In August 2009, we issued 25,000,000 shares of common stock for settlement of debt of $375,000 at a fair value of $0.011 per share.
 
On January 25, 2009, we issued 10,000,000 restricted shares of common stock to Claudio Sgarbi, the President of ELCE International Corp. upon closing of a joint venture agreement with ELCE International Corp. Under this joint venture agreement an additional 5,000,000 restricted common shares were issued August 20, 2009 and 15,000,000 restricted common shares were issued January 25, 2010. Intangible assets calculated under this joint venture agreement represent costs incurred to acquire product distribution rights under the agreement amounting to $689,732.
 
Growth Strategy
 
During 2010, we signed consulting services agreements with four consultants for technical environmental services, general business services, marketing services and web development services. We also signed two investor and public relation services agreements during 2010.
 
During 2009, we signed agreements with two agents representing us in Colombia. In 2009, arrangements were made for testing of our FW Activators on agricultural applications at a University in Cali, Colombia which continued during 2010.
 
We plan to incrementally increase sale of water activation products by using successful installation as local reference points for approaching industries or commercial firms that utilize similar boiler and refrigeration systems. Our success will be largely dependent upon the marketing of our products to a manageable number and variety of markets. In the event that we are able to secure sufficient financing, we will be able to consider expanding the offering of additional products and/or technologies by our three suppliers or future additional suppliers. If we have the appropriate resources, we can also gradually explore establishing relationships with an increased number of suppliers.
 
Future Operations
 
Our primary objectives for the next twelve month period include the pursuit of financing through private placement of our equity securities to directors, shareholders and new shareholders which would allow us to further develop and expand our present marketplace building on our local distributor and customer base to secure more sales and product installations where we have established commercial credibility. We believe that there is a strong market for our innovative and cost effective product lines. We intend to seek to establish relationships with heating and cooling service and equipment suppliers as well as firms already supplying pumps, water tanks, and other water related equipment.

Marketing
 
Assuming that we will be able to obtain the financing that we need, we estimate that we will incur $400,000 to $500,000 in marketing costs during the next twelve month period. Our proposed marketing activities for the next twelve month period include:
 
1. 
Advertisements in local markets, in the language of the country and editorial coverage in water treatment journals and magazines demonstrating successful applications of ultraviolet and water activation technologies.
 
2. 
Participation in selected trade show directed at both distributors as well as consumer related events for people interested in drinking water treatment systems for their own homes.
 
3. 
Building on local, word-of-mouth support from satisfied customers who have contacts within their own industry or community or, in the case of individual home owners, people who live in their communities who are concerned about drinking water quality and looking for affordable treatment solutions.
 
4. 
Pursuit of local distributors who will properly represent our products.
 
If we are able complete the proposed acquisition of Agent155 as described elsewhere in this annual report, our marketing costs for the next twelve months may change significantly.
 
General and Administration
 
General and administration costs include personnel costs, office, and miscellaneous expenses. We estimate that we will incur $50,000 to $75,000 in general and administrative costs during the next twelve month period based on our previous costs and the probable expansion of our business over the next twelve month period. These costs may change significantly if we are able complete the proposed acquisition of Agent155 as described elsewhere in this annual report.
 
Our company is currently operated by Max Weissengruber as our President, D. Brian Robertson as our Treasurer, Chief Financial Officer and Vice-President of Sales and Douglas R. Robertson as our Secretary. Given our present status as a development stage company, these officers and directors are capable of managing our current level of business much of which is conducted by our local distributors and supported by our Vice President of Sales, Senior Operations Consultant, Director of Marketing for Latin America and our Southern Colombian sales agents. We also receive the support and advice of our three product suppliers VIQUA, Ozocan Corporation and ELCE International. We may periodically hire independent contractors to execute our marketing, sales, and business development functions. In the next twelve month period, we plan to hire independent contractors to assist in business development with an emphasis on marketing, recruiting and management of distributors. We may choose to compensate such persons with consideration other than cash, such as shares of our common stock or options to purchase shares of our common stock.
 
Other Expenses
 
We expect our ongoing legal and accounting expenses to average less than $5,000 per month for the next twelve month period, although this may change if we are able to negotiate and execute a definitive acquisition agreement with Agent155.
 
In management’s opinion, we need to achieve the following events or milestones, which cannot and will not be achieved unless we first obtain the financing we require, in the next twelve month period in order for us to become a going concern:
 
1. 
We must build on sales from our existing local distributors in whom we have now made a considerable investment. In addition to increasing sales through our local distributors, we plan, as resources become available, to incrementally develop a local distribution network which, in turn, must succeed in selling our products to end-users. Continuous technical and sales support and in person visits calling on customers and potential customers is the most effective way to increase the sales effectiveness of our distributors. New local distributors have been generated by cold-calls, email lists and most importantly, by referrals from current customers.
 
2. 
Our local distributors must increase the orders made by existing customers. This will be accomplished by ensuring customer satisfaction with the performance and pricing of the existing product lines and by establishing revenue streams from existing customers.
 
3. 
We must improve our gross profit margin by increasing our orders resulting in larger discounts and decreasing our shipping costs.
 
 
17

 
 
Purchase or Sale of Equipment
 
We do not anticipate that we will expend any significant amount on equipment for our present or future operations. We may purchase computer hardware and software for our ongoing operations.
 
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
 
We have no outstanding derivative financial instruments, off-balance sheet guarantees, interest rate swap transactions or foreign currency contracts. We do not engage in trading activities involving non-exchange traded contracts.

To the Directors and Stockholders
Freshwater Technologies, Inc.
(A Development Stage Company)
 
We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Freshwater Technologies, Inc. (A Development Stage Company) as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, and the related statements of operations, cash flows and stockholders’ equity (deficit) for the years then ended and accumulated from January 21, 2005 (Date of Inception) to December 31, 2010. 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 audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. An audit includes 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 internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. 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 Freshwater Technologies, Inc. (A Development Stage Company) as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended and accumulated from January 21, 2005 (Date of Inception) to December 31, 2010, 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 not generated any sustained revenues and has incurred operating losses from operations. The Company has a working capital deficiency and will need additional financing to sustain operations. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s 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.

Freshwater Technologies, Inc.
(A Development Stage Company)
Notes to the Financial Statements
December 31, 2010
(expressed in U.S. dollars)

1.  Nature of Operations and Continuance of Business
 
On January 1, 2006 Freshwater Technologies, Inc. (formerly HMI Technologies Inc.) (“HMI”) entered into an Asset Acquisition Agreement to acquire the business of Freshwater Technologies (“Freshwater”). HMI was incorporated in the State of Nevada, U.S.A. on December 10, 1999. Effective January 1, 2006, the acquisition of the Freshwater business was completed through the issuance of 80,000,000 split-adjusted restricted shares of common stock, and as a result, the former owners of the Freshwater business owned approximately 79% of the outstanding common stock of HMI. Prior to the acquisition of Freshwater, HMI was a non-operating shell company with nominal net assets. The acquisition was a capital transaction in substance and therefore has been accounted for as a recapitalization, which is outside the scope of ASC 805 “Business Combinations”. Under recapitalization accounting, Freshwater was considered the acquirer for accounting and financial reporting purposes, and acquired the assets and assumed the liabilities of HMI. Assets acquired and liabilities assumed are reported at their historical amounts. These financial statements include the accounts of HMI since the effective date of the recapitalization (January 1, 2006) and the historical accounts of the business of Freshwater since inception (collectively, the “Company”). Refer to Note 5.
 
The Company’s principal business involves the distribution and marketing of drinking water products and water activation products. The Company is a Development Stage Company, as defined by Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 915, “Development Stage Entities”.
 
These financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which implies that the Company will continue to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has generated limited revenues to date and has never paid any dividends and is unlikely to pay dividends or generate significant earnings in the immediate or foreseeable future. In order to fund the proposed plan of operation, the Company will require an additional $1,000,000 to $1,400,000 in funding through the next twelve month period. As at December 31, 2010, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $2,606,505 and a working capital deficit of $191,238. The continuation of the Company as a going concern is dependent upon the continued financial support from its directors and officers, the ability to raise equity or debt financing, and the attainment of profitable operations from the business. These factors raise substantial doubt regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. These financial statements do not include any adjustments to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
 
2.  Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
 
a)  Basis of Presentation
 
These financial statements and related notes are presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, and are expressed in US dollars. The Company’s fiscal year-end is December 31.
 
b)  Use of Estimates
 
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S.generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The Company regularly evaluates estimates and assumptions related to provision for uncollectible receivables, provision for inventory obsolescence, valuation of distribution rights, donated expenses, fair values of financial instruments and deferred income tax asset valuation allowances.The Company bases its estimates and assumptions on current facts, historical experience and various other factors that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities and the accrual of costs and expenses that are not readily apparent from other sources. The actual results experienced by the Company may differ materially and adversely from the Company’s estimates. To the extent there are material differences between the estimates and the actual results, future results of operations will be affected.

2.  Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
 
c)  Cash and Cash Equivalents
 
The Company considers all highly liquid instruments with maturity of three months or less at the time of issuance to be cash equivalents. As at December 31, 2010, the Company had no cash equivalents.
 
d)  Basic and Diluted Net Income (Loss) Per Share
 
The Company computes earnings (loss) per share in accordance with ASC 260, Earnings per Share which 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. As at December 31, 2010, the convertible notes payable of $137,500 could be converted to approximately 124,797,000 common shares.
 
e)  Comprehensive Loss

ASC 220, Comprehensive Income establishes standards for the reporting and display of comprehensive loss and its components in the financial statements. As at December 31, 2010, the Company has no items that represent other comprehensive loss and, therefore, has not included a schedule of other comprehensive loss in the financial statements.
 
f)  Inventory
 
Inventory consists of water activation products and water filters and is recorded at the lower of cost and net realizable value on a first-in, first-out basis. The Company establishes inventory reserves for estimated obsolete or unmarketable inventory equal to the differences between the cost of inventory and the estimated realizable value based upon assumptions about future and market conditions.  Shipping and handling costs are classified as a component of cost of sales in the statement of operations.
 
g)  Financial Instruments
 
Pursuant to ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures and ASC 825, Financial Instruments, an entity is required to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value using a hierarchy based on the level of independent, objective evidence surrounding the inputs used to measure fair value. A financial instrument’s categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The hierarchy prioritizes the inputs into three levels that may be used to measure fair value:
 
Level 1
 
Level 1 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
 
Level 2
 
Level 2 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets with insufficient volume or infrequent transactions (less active markets); or model-derived valuations in which significant inputs are observable or can be derived principally from, or corroborated by, observable market data.
 
Level 3
 
Level 3 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are unobservable inputs to the valuation methodology that are significant to the measurement of the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

2.  Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
 
g)  Financial Instruments (continued)
 
The Company’s financial instruments consist principally of cash, receivables, accounts payable, convertible notes payable and amounts due to related parties. The fair value of the Company’s cash equivalents, when applicable, is determined based on “Level 1” inputs, which consist of quoted prices in active markets for identical assets. During the year ended December 31, 2010, the Company valued convertible notes payable based on "Level 2" inputs, consisting of model-derived valuations in which significant inputs are derived from observable market data.  The Company estimates that the carrying values of all of its other financial instruments approximate their fair values due to the nature or duration of these instruments.
 
h)  Foreign Currency Translation
 
The Company’s functional and reporting currency is the United States dollar. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated in accordance with ASC 830, Foreign Currency Translation Matters, using the exchange rate prevailing at the balance sheet date. Gains and losses arising on translation or settlement of foreign currency denominated transactions or balances are included in the determination of income. Foreign currency transactions are primarily undertaken in Canadian dollars and Euros. The Company has not, to the date of these financials statements, entered into derivative instruments to offset the impact of foreign currency fluctuations.
 
i)  Income Taxes
 
The Company accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability method in accordance with ASC 740, Income Taxes. The asset and liability method provides that deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities, and for operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using the currently enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. The Company records a valuation allowance to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount that is believed more likely than not to be realized. Potential benefits of income tax losses are not recognized in the accounts until realization is more likely than not. 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.
 
j)  Revenue Recognition
 
The Company recognizes revenue from the sale or rental of drinking water products and water activation products in accordance with ASC 605, Revenue Recognition, and SAB 104.  The majority of the revenues consist of water activation units in Costa Rica, Panama and Peru.  Revenue consists of the sale/rental of drinking water products and water activation products and is recognized only when the price is fixed or determinable, persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, the product is shipped, and collectibility is reasonably assured. Our shipping terms are FOB shipping point.  For UV products, the customer pays all costs from the point of shipment, and for FW products, the customer pays all costs from arrival point in the country to which the FW products are shipped.  The Company evaluates the collectibility of accounts receivable based on a combination of factors. In cases where the Company is aware of circumstances that may impair a specific customer’s ability to meet its financial obligations subsequent to the original sale, the Company will record an allowance against amounts due, and thereby reduce the net recognized receivable to the amount the Company reasonably believes will be collected. For all other customers, the Company recognizes allowances for doubtful accounts based on the length of time the receivables are past due, the current business environment and the Company’s historical experience.
 
k)  Stock-based Compensation
 
The Company accounts for share-based payments in accordance with ASC 718, Compensation – Stock Based Compensation. All transactions in which goods or services are the consideration received for the issuance of equity instruments are accounted for based on the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instrument issued, whichever is more reliably measurable. The Company has not issued any stock options since its inception.

l)  Intangible Assets
 
Intangible assets represent costs incurred to acquire product distribution rights under the agreement disclosed in Note 6(b) amounting to $689,732. The useful life of the product distribution rights acquired has been estimated by management to be two years. Amortization is provided on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life. During the year ended December 31, 2010, the Company recognized $344,866 in amortization expense in relation to these assets as compared to $322,190 amortization expense for the year ended December 31, 2009. The Company estimates it will recognize $22,676 in amortization expense during the year ended December 31, 2011.

m)  Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In January 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2010-06, Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements, which amends the ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures. ASU No. 2010-06 amends the ASC to require disclosure of transfers into and out of Level 1 and Level 2 fair value measurements, and also requires more detailed disclosure about the activity within Level 3 fair value measurements. The new disclosures and clarifications of existing disclosures are effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2009, except for the disclosures concerning purchases, sales, issuances, and settlements in the roll forward of activity in Level 3 fair value measurements. Those disclosures are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010, and for interim periods within those fiscal years. The adoption of this amendment is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements.

The Company has implemented all other new accounting pronouncements that are in effect and that may impact    its financial statements and does not believe that there are any other new accounting pronouncements that have been issued that might have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations.

7.  Economic Dependence

The Company relies solely upon VIQUA- a Trojan Technologies Company (“VIQUA”), as the sole supplier of their drinking water products, ELCE International Corp. (“ELCE”), as the sole supplier of their water activation products and Ozocan Corporation as sole supplier of ozone water treatment systems. VIQUA and ELCE supplied the Company with 100% of the products that the Company offered and sold during the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009. VIQUA, Ozocan and ELCE are the sole manufacturers and primary developers of the respective technologies in such products. As a result, the Company could be adversely affected by changes in the cost of the suppliers’ products, the financial condition of the suppliers or by the deterioration or termination of its relationship with the suppliers.

The Agreement with ELCE expired on January 26, 2011 and both parties are currently discussing a new agreement.
 
During the year ended December 31, 2010, all of our revenues were earned through one major agent.

Item 9.  Changes in and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure.
 
None.
 
Item 9A.  Controls and Procedures.
 
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures. Our management, including our chief executive officer and our chief financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, our management, including our chief executive officer and our chief financial officer, concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report were not effective.
 
Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that the information required to be disclosed by us in reports filed or submitted under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and (ii) accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding disclosure. A controls system cannot provide absolute assurance, however, that the objectives of the controls system are met, and no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within a company have been detected.
 
We have no external evaluations, however, we conduct management internal reviews annually.  Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives and the conclusions of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer regarding the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures are made at the reasonable assurance level.
 
Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting.
 
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f)(1)-(3) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended).
 
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their control objectives.
 
In making this assessment, our management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control — Integrated Framework. Based on this evaluation, our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, concluded that, as of December 31, 2010, our internal control over financial reporting was not effective.
 
In making this assessment, our management determined that we have the following weaknesses in our disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting:
 
We do not have an audit committee;
 
We do not have independent directors who meet the independence requirements for members of an audit committee;
 
We do not have an audit committee charter outlining duties and responsibilities;
 
We do not have a board of directors charter outlining duties and responsibilities;
 
We do not have an adequate mechanisms in place for identifying business risks, including changes in the business, economic, and regulatory environment;
 
We do not have an internal audit function with competent and experienced staff to assist in monitoring activities, adhering to professional standards;
 
We do not have training seminars, planning sessions, and other meetings to provide feedback to management on whether controls operate effectively;
 
Signatures are not required to evidence performance of critical control functions, such as reconciliations; and,
 
We do not have separate external evaluations of our internal control system.
 
 
19

 
 
We have not taken measures to address these weaknesses but intend to evaluate how and when to do so in the coming year.  Currently, our entire board acts as our audit committee.  Given our limited financial resources and operations at present the board does not believe that it is necessary at this time to establish a separate audit committee or appoint an independent director or an audit committee financial expert to the board.  Similarly, with our other weaknesses, while we intend to address them in the future, we do not currently have the funds or level of operations to justify the expense of fixing these material weaknesses at the present time.
 
Attestation Report of the Registered Public Accounting Firm.  This annual report does not include an attestation report of our registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting.  Management's report was not subject to attestation by our registered public accounting firm pursuant to rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit us to provide only management's report in this annual report.
 
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting. There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting, that occurred during the quarter ended December 31, 2010, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Compliance
 
Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 requires our directors, executive officers and persons who own more than ten percent (10%) of our common stock to file reports regarding ownership of, and transactions in, our securities with the SEC and to provide us with copies of those filings. Based solely on our review of the copies of such forms received by us, or written representations from certain reporting persons, we believe that during fiscal year ended December 31, 2010 our directors, executive officers and ten percent (10%) stockholders complied with all applicable filing requirements.
 
Item 11.  Executive Compensation.

Stock Options and Stock Appreciation Rights
 
During our years ended December 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009, we did not grant any stock options or stock appreciation rights to any of our directors or officers.

Compensation of Directors
 
We reimburse our directors for expenses incurred in connection with attending board meetings.

Pursuant to Item 402(a)(5) of Regulation S-K we have omitted the Director Compensation table since no compensation was awarded to, earned by, or paid to these individuals.
 
We have no formal plan for compensating our directors for their service in their capacity as directors, although such directors are expected in the future to receive stock options to purchase common shares as awarded by our board of directors or (as to future stock options) a compensation committee which may be established. Directors are entitled to reimbursement for reasonable travel and other out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with attendance at meetings of our board of directors. Our board of directors may award special remuneration to any director undertaking any special services on our behalf other than services ordinarily required of a director. No director received and/or accrued any compensation for their services as a director, including committee participation and/or special assignments.
 
Employment Contracts and Termination of Employment and Change in Control Arrangements
 
Other than our contracts with Mr. Weissengruber and Mr. B. Robertson set out below, we have not entered into any employment agreement or consulting agreements with our directors and executive officers. There are no arrangements or plans in which we provide pension, retirement or similar benefits for directors or executive officers. Our directors and executive officers may receive stock options at the discretion of our board of directors in the future. We do not have any material bonus or profit sharing plans pursuant to which cash or non-cash compensation is or may be paid to our directors or executive officers, except that stock options may be granted at the discretion of our board of directors.
 
On January 1, 2006, we entered into a consulting contract with Max Weissengruber, whereby Mr. Weissengruber agreed to provide services as our President for a twelve month term expiring January 1, 2007 in consideration for the payment by us of $5,000 per month from January 1, 2006 to May 31, 2006 and $3,000 per month from June 1, 2006 to December 31, 2006. The agreement is reviewed annually by our board of directors and has been extended to January 1, 2012 at $3,000 per month. We have the right to terminate Mr. Weissengruber’s consulting contract at any time with payment, in either cash or stock, of the remaining amount for the year plus any accrued expenses owing at the termination date. Mr. Weissengruber is required to provide us with two months notice prior to termination.
 
On January 1, 2006, we also entered into a consulting contract with D.

Changes in Control
 
Other than the agreement set out below, we are unaware of any contract, or other arrangement or provision of our Articles or By-laws, the operation of which may at a subsequent date result in a change of our control.
 
On March 7, 2011, we entered into a letter of intent with Agent155 Media Corp. of New York, New York (“Agent155”) regarding the acquisition of Agent155. The completion of this agreement will result in a change of control,
 
Subsequent to the closing of the proposed acquisition, we intend to provide an affordable, high-quality online presence for the global artistic and athletic communities. We intend to stream and redistribute member content through media channels such as television, radio, film, Internet and print. Our mission will be to make this opportunity for exposure, collaboration and networking accessible to everyone, worldwide.
 
The proposed acquisition of Agent155 includes the following actions:
 
a 1,000 to 1 reverse split of our common shares;
 
a change of our name to “Agent155 Media Corp.”;
 
the issuance of 100,000,000 of restricted common shares to Christopher Martinez, President of Agent155, in exchange for the assets and business of Agent155;
 
the filing of a Form S-8 registration statement;
 
the sale of our water business assets, business and corporate name to Max Weissengruber, President and Brian Robertson, Chief Financial Officer in consideration of $115,823;
 
consulting contracts with Max Weissengruber, Brian Robertson, Claudio Sgarbi and Michael Borrelli to issue common shares to these individuals under the Form S-8 registration statement; and
 
the issuance of certain restricted common shares to three individuals.
 
Pursuant to the letter of intent, Agent155 will become responsible for certain of our liabilities as follows:
 
the payment of our outstanding convertible note payable, plus interest, will be negotiated with our creditor by Agent155;
 
our accounts payable will be paid by Agent155 within 30 days of the closing of the acquisition; and
 
the amounts owing to our directors will be settled by the payment of $83,797 to those individuals.
 
At or prior to the closing of the acquisition, all of our directors and officers will resign from their respective positions and Christopher Martinez, President of Agent155, will become our President, CEO and sole director. Additional members of our Board of Directors will be determined at a later date.
 
The completion of the transactions contemplated by the letter of intent, including the closing of the acquisition of Agent155, is subject to continued due diligence by both Agent155 and us, as well as the negotiation and execution of a final acquisition agreement. We cannot guarantee that we will successfully complete any of the transactions described in the letter of intent.

Item 13.  Certain Relationships and Related Transactions, and Director Independence.
 
Other than as disclosed below, there has been no transaction, since January 1, 2008, or currently proposed transaction, in which we were or are to be a participant and the amount involved exceeds the lesser of $120,000 or one percent of the average of our total assets at year end for the last two completed fiscal years, and in which any of the following persons had or will have a direct or indirect material interest:
 
(i)  
any director or executive officer;
 
(ii)  
any beneficial owner of shares carrying more than 5% of the voting rights attached to our outstanding shares of common stock; and
 
(iii)  
any immediate family member (including spouse, parents, children, siblings and in-laws) of any of the foregoing persons.
 
Max Weissengruber and D. Brian Robertson, although not obligated to do so, have expressed willingness to advance us funds on a short-term basis to the extent necessary and, at December 31, 2010 had advanced funds totaling $173,873 to us. These amounts are unsecured, and have no specific terms for repayment. For the year ended December 31, 2010, we recorded $7,965 (2009 - $9,163) of imputed interest at 5.25% relating to these amounts owing.
 
Given that we are a start-up, development stage company, we believe that the terms of the foregoing transactions, and the funds provided thereby, were the only manner by which we could generate the funds required to implement the initial stages of our business plan and we would have offered similar terms of transactions to unaffiliated third parties.
 
We entered into consulting agreements with our President and CFO.  Under these agreements, both our President and CFO received $3,000 per month from June 1, 2006 to December 31, 2010. For the year ended December 31, 2010, we recorded $36,000 (December 31, 2009 - $36,000) of consulting expense and $36,000 (December 31, 2009 - $36,000) as marketing and sales expense. In December 2010, we agreed to extend the term of these agreements to December 31, 2011 at $3,000 per month.
 
On August 15, 2008, we entered into a debt settlement and subscription agreement with our President, whereby we agreed to issued 5,700,000 Class A common shares at a fair value of $0.05 per share in consideration of the settlement of $285,000 owing.
 
On August 15, 2008, we entered into a debt settlement and subscription agreement with our CFO, whereby we agreed to issued 5,500,000 Class A common shares at a fair value of $0.05 per share in consideration of the settlement of $275,000 owing.

On January 25, 2009 we entered into a joint venture agreement with ELCE International Corp. to market and sell certain water activation products owned by ELCE. Under the terms of the agreement we agreed to purchase minimum quantities of products to fulfill customer orders and minimize shipping costs, and maintain minimum inventory of ELCE products to complete customer orders. As consideration for distributing ELCE products, we issued 10,000,000 restricted shares of common stock to Claudio Sgarbi, the President of ELCE, on January 25, 2009. We also agreed to issue an additional 5,000,000 shares issuable bi-annually for two years from the closing of the joint venture agreement. On August 20, 2009, we issued an additional 5,000,000 restricted common shares under the agreement. On December 31, 2009 in consideration for ELCE eliminating the requirement for minimum inventory we agreed to issue the 15,000,000 restricted common shares owing to Claudio Sgarbi under the agreement on January 25, 2010.
 
We will pay Mr. Sgarbi any out of pocket expenses plus a monthly consulting fee as follows:
 
$4,500
for the period ending May 2009
$6,000
for the period ending August 2009
$7,500
for the period ending November 2009
$9,000
December 1, 2009 until the agreement is terminated.
 
Effective March 31, 2010, it was mutually agreed between both parties to terminate further payments of consulting fees to Mr. Sgarbi under the agreement.
 
We will also pay to ELCE International Corp. 50% of the net profits relating to sales under the agreement.
 
The Agreement expired on January 26, 2011.
 
Director Independence
 
Under NASDAQ Rule 5605(a)(2), a director is not considered to be independent if he or she is also an executive officer or employee of the company or accepted any compensation from the company in excess of $120,000 during any period of twelve consecutive months within the three years preceding the determination of independence.
 
We determined that none of our directors are independent as that term is defined by NASDAQ Rule 5605(a)(2).
 
Item 14.  Principal Accounting Fees and Services.
 
Audit Fees
 
The following table sets forth the fees billed or expected to be billed to us for professional services rendered by our independent registered public accounting firm, for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009:
 
Fees

  $ 1,500     $ 5,000  
All other Fees
  $ Nil     $ Nil  
Total
  $ 33,000     $ 35,750  
 
Audit Fees. Consist of fees billed for professional services rendered for the audits of our financial statements, reviews of our interim consolidated financial statements included in quarterly reports and professional services for tax compliance, tax advice and tax planning that are normally provided by Manning Elliot LLP, Chartered Accountants for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009. These services include assistance regarding federal, state and local tax compliance and consultation in connection with various transactions and acquisitions.
 
 
28

 
 
Audit-related Fees.  The audit-related fees consist of fees billed for the Public accounting firm’s consent to include their audit report on our 2010 and 2009 financial statements which are incorporated in our Form S-8 Registration Statement filing.
 
Tax Fees.  Tax fees consist of tax compliance, tax advice and tax planning.
 
Policy on Pre-Approval by Audit Committee of Services Performed by Independent Auditors
 
We do not use Manning Elliot, for financial information system design and implementation. These services, which include designing or implementing a system that aggregates source data underlying the financial statements or generates information that is significant to our financial statements, are provided internally or by other service providers. We do not engage Manning Elliot to provide compliance outsourcing services.
 
Effective May 6, 2003, the Securities and Exchange Commission adopted rules that require that before Manning Elliot is engaged by us to render any auditing or permitted non-audit related service, the engagement be:
 
approved by our audit committee (the functions of which are performed by our entire board of directors); or
 
entered into pursuant to pre-approval policies and procedures established by the board of directors, provided the policies and procedures are detailed as to the particular service, the board of directors is informed of each service, and such policies and procedures do not include delegation of the board of directors' responsibilities to management.
 
Our entire board of directors pre-approves all services provided by our independent auditors. All of the above services and fees were reviewed and approved by our directors before the respective services were rendered.
 
Our board of directors have considered the nature and amount of fees billed by Manning Elliot and believe that the provision of services for activities unrelated to the audit is compatible with maintaining Manning Elliot’s independence.
