VISUALANT, INCORPORATED AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.	ORGANIZATION

Visualant, Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on October 8, 1998 with authorized common stock of 200,000,000 shares at $0.001 par value. On September 13, 2002, 50,000,000 shares of preferred stock with a par value of $0.001 were authorized by the shareholders. There are no preferred shares issued and the terms have not been determined.

The Company closed the acquisition of TransTech Systems, Inc. (“TransTech”) of Aurora, OR on June 8, 2010 and recorded the results from June 8, 2010 to June 30, 2011. As of June 8, 2010, the Company is no longer in the development stage.

This acquisition is expected to accelerate market entry and penetration through the acquisition of well-operated and positioned distributors of security and authentication systems like TransTech, thus creating a natural distribution channel for products featuring our proprietary Spectrum Pattern Matching (“SPM”) technology.

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of the Company and our subsidiaries have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. The financial statements for the periods ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 are unaudited and include all adjustments necessary to a fair statement of the results of operations for the periods then ended. All such adjustments are of a normal, recurring nature. The results of the Company’s operations for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results of the Company’s operations for a full fiscal year. For further information, refer to the financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2010 as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on December 30, 2010.

2.	GOING CONCERN

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has incurred net losses of $1,148,920 and $950,609 for the years ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively. Our current liabilities exceeded our current assets by approximately $3.0 million as of June 30, 2011. Our net cash used in operating activities was $440,968 for the year ended September 30, 2010.

As of June 30, 2011, the Company had $249,669 in cash. The Company needs to obtain additional financing to implement the business plan, service our debt repayments and acquire new businesses.. However, there can be no assurance that financing or additional funding will be available to the Company on favorable terms or at all. If the Company raises additional capital through the sale of equity or convertible debt securities, the issuance of such securities may result in dilution to existing stockholders.

The Company anticipates that it will record losses from operations for the foreseeable future. As of June 30, 2011, our accumulated deficit was $10.5 million. The Company has limited capital resources, and operations to date have been funded with the proceeds from private equity and debt financings. These conditions raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. The audit report prepared by our independent registered public accounting firm relating to our financial statements for the year ended September 30, 2010 includes an explanatory paragraph expressing the substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

Continuation of the Company as a going concern is dependent upon obtaining additional working capital. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if we are unable to continue as a going concern.

3.	SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES: ADOPTION OF ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION - The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned and majority-owned subsidiaries. Inter-Company items and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS - The Company classifies highly liquid temporary investments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased as cash equivalents. The Company maintains cash balances at various financial institutions. Balances at US banks are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation up to $250,000. Beginning December 31, 2010 and through December 31, 2012, all noninterest-bearing transaction accounts are fully insured, regardless of the balance of the account, at all FDIC-insured institutions. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts and believes it is not exposed to any significant risk for cash on deposit. As of June 30, 2011, the Company had no uninsured cash amounts.

ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE AND ALLOWANCE FOR DOUBTFUL ACCOUNTS - Accounts receivable consists primarily of amounts due to the Company from normal business activities. The Company maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts to reflect the expected non-collection of accounts receivable based on past collection history and specific risks identified within the portfolio. If the financial condition of the customers were to deteriorate resulting in an impairment of their ability to make payments, or if payments from customers are significantly delayed, additional allowances might be required.

INVENTORIES - Inventories consist primarily of printers and consumable supplies, including ribbons and cards, badge accessories, capture devices, and access control components held for resale and are stated at the lower of cost or market on the first-in, first-out (“FIFO”) method. Inventories are considered available for resale when drop shipped and invoiced directly to a customer from a vendor, or when physically received by TransTech at a warehouse location. The company records a provision for excess and obsolete inventory whenever an impairment has been identified. A provision of $7,500for impaired inventory has been reserved as of June 30, 2011.

EQUIPMENT - Equipment consists of machinery, leasehold improvements, furniture and fixtures and software, which are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation is computed by the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives or lease period of the relevant asset, generally 3-10 years, except for leasehold improvements which are depreciated over 20 years.

INTANGIBLE ASSETS / INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY - The Company amortizes the intangible assets and intellectual property acquired in connection with the acquisition of TransTech, over sixty months on a straight - line basis, which was the time frame that the management of the Company was able to project forward for future revenue, either under agreement or through expected continued business activities. Intangible assets and intellectual property acquired from RATLab are recorded likewise.

GOODWILL – Goodwill is the excess of cost of an acquired entity over the fair value of amounts assigned to assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination. With the adoption of ASC 350, goodwill is not amortized, rather it is tested for impairment annually, and will be tested for impairment between annual tests if an event occurs or circumstances change that would indicate the carrying amount may be impaired. Impairment testing for goodwill is done at a reporting unit level. Reporting units are one level below the business segment level, but are combined when reporting units within the same segment have similar economic characteristics. Under the criteria set forth by ASC 350, the Company has one reporting unit based on the current structure. An impairment loss generally would be recognized when the carrying amount of the reporting unit’s net assets exceeds the estimated fair value of the reporting unit. The Company performs annual assessments and has determined that no impairment is necessary.

LONG-LIVED ASSETS - The Company reviews its long-lived assets for impairment when changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Long-lived assets under certain circumstances are reported at the lower of carrying amount or fair value. Assets to be disposed of and assets not expected to provide any future service potential to the Company are recorded at the lower of carrying amount or fair value (less the projected cost associated with selling the asset). To the extent carrying values exceed fair values, an impairment loss is recognized in operating results.

FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS - The Company has adopted FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements”, for assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis. Topic 820 establishes a common definition for fair value to be applied to existing generally accepted accounting principles that require the use of fair value measurements, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosure about such fair value measurements. Topic 820 defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Additionally, Topic 820 requires the use of valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. These inputs are prioritized below:

	Level 1:	Observable inputs such as quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

	Level 2:	Observable market-based inputs or unobservable inputs that are corroborated by market data

	Level 3:	Unobservable inputs for which there is little or no market data, which require the use of the reporting entity’s own assumptions.

All cash and cash equivalents include money market securities and commercial paper that are considered to be highly liquid and easily tradable as of June 30, 2011. These securities are valued using inputs observable in active markets for identical securities and are therefore classified as Level 1 within our fair value hierarchy.

The carrying amounts of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities, such as cash, accounts receivable, inventory, accounts payable, taxes payable, accrued expenses and other current liabilities, approximate their fair values because of the short maturity of these instruments. The Company’s notes payable approximates the fair value of such instruments based upon management’s best estimate of interest rates that would be available to the Company for a similar financial arrangement at June 30, 2011.

In addition, Topic 820 expands opportunities to use fair value measurements in financial reporting and permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value. The Company did not elect the fair value option for any of its qualifying financial instruments.

REVENUE RECOGNITION – TransTech revenue is derived from other products and services. Revenue is considered realized when the services have been provided to the customer, the work has been accepted by the customer and collectability is reasonably assured. Furthermore, if an actual measurement of revenue cannot be determined, we defer all revenue recognition until such time that an actual measurement can be determined. If during the course of a contract management determines that losses are expected to be incurred, such costs are charged to operations in the period such losses are determined. Revenues are deferred when cash has been received from the customer but the revenue has not been earned. The Company recorded deferred revenue of $0 as of June 30, 2011 and September 30, 2010, respectively.

ADVERTISING COSTS - Advertising costs are expensed as incurred. Such costs generally consist of major industry trade shows cooperatively with vendors and some advertising in industry publications. Advertising costs were insignificant during the nine months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010.

STOCK BASED COMPENSATION - The Company has share-based compensation plans under which employees, consultants, suppliers and directors may be granted restricted stock, as well as options to purchase shares of Company common stock at the fair market value at the time of grant. Stock-based compensation cost is measured by the Company at the grant date, based on the fair value of the award, over the requisite service period. For options issued to employees, the Company recognizes stock compensation costs utilizing the fair value methodology over the related period of benefit. Grants of stock options and stock to non-employees and other parties are accounted for in accordance with the ASC 505.

INCOME TAXES - Income tax benefit is based on reported loss before income taxes. Deferred income taxes reflect the effect of temporary differences between asset and liability amounts that are recognized for financial reporting purposes and the amounts that are recognized for income tax purposes. These deferred taxes are measured by applying currently enacted tax laws where that company operates out of. The Company recognizes refundable and deferred assets to the extent that management has determined their realization. As of June 30, 2011 and September 30, 2010, the Company had refundable tax assets related to TransTech of $7,414 and $8,581, respectively.

NET LOSS PER SHARE – Under the provisions of ASC 260, “Earnings Per Share,” basic loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the periods presented. Diluted net loss per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock or resulted in the issuance of common stock that would then share in the income of the Company, subject to anti-dilution limitations. The common stock equivalents have not been included as they are anti-dilutive. As of June 30, 2011, there were options outstanding for the purchase of 6,920,000 common shares, warrants for the purchase of 4,377,050 common shares, an undetermined number shares of common stock related to convertible debt, which could potentially dilute future earnings per share. As of June 30, 2010, there were options outstanding for the purchase of 4,810,000 common shares, warrants for the purchase of 1,133,333 common shares and 1,666,667 shares of common stock related to convertible debt which could potentially dilute future earnings per share.

DIVIDEND POLICY - The Company has never paid any cash dividends and intends, for the foreseeable future, to retain any future earnings for the development of our business. Our future dividend policy will be determined by the board of directors on the basis of various factors, including our results of operations, financial condition, capital requirements and investment opportunities.

USE OF ESTIMATES - The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States 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. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

RECLASSIFICATION - Certain reclassifications have been made to the Company’s financial statements for prior periods to conform to the current presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on previously reported results of operations or retained earnings.

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

Recent accounting pronouncements applicable to the Company are summarized below.

In April 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standard Update ("ASU") 2010-13, Compensation-Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Effect of Denominating the Exercise Price of a Share-Based Payment Award in the Currency of the Market in Which the Underlying Equity Security Trades - a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force. The amendments in this Update are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning on or after December 15, 2010. Earlier application is permitted. The Company does not expect the provisions of ASU 2010-13 to have a material effect on the financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company. In March 2010, the FASB issued ASU No.2010-11, which is included in the Certification under ASC 815. This update clarifies the type of embedded credit derivative that is exempt from embedded derivative bifurcation requirements. Only an embedded credit derivative that is related to the subordination of one financial instrument to another qualifies for the exemption. This guidance became effective for the Company's interim and annual reporting periods beginning January 1, 2010. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the Company's financial statements.

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

4.	DEVELOPMENT OF SPECTRUM PATTERN MATCHING TECHNOLOGY

The Company develops low-cost, high speed, light-based security and quality control solutions for use in homeland security, anti-counterfeiting, forgery/fraud prevention, brand protection and process control applications. Its patent-pending technology uses controlled illumination with specific bands of light, to establish a unique spectral signature for both individual and classes of items. When matched against existing databases, these spectral signatures allow precise identification and authentication of any item or substance. This breakthrough optical sensing and data capture technology is called Spectral Pattern Matching (“SPM”). SPM technology can be miniaturized and is easily integrated into a variety of hand-held or fixed mount configurations, and can be combined in the same package as a bar-code or biometric scanner.

On October 23, 2008, the Company and RATLab entered into definitive agreements which provide for a non-commercial non-exclusive license of the Company’s technology to RATLab for the purpose of continuing research and development with a license back to the Company for enhancements that are developed. Further, an exclusive license was entered into between the Company and RATLab for four fields of use: medical, agricultural, environmental and jewelry. This exclusive license provides for certain performance milestones, a market-rate royalty to the Company and an equity participation in an entity to be formed by RATLab to commercialize the Company’s technology in the enumerated fields of use. In accordance with the definitive agreements, RATLab formed Novabeam, Inc.(“Novabeam”), an affiliate for purposes of commercializing the intellectual property, of which 10% was sold and transferred to the Company for $50. Finally, in satisfaction of outstanding matters, a total of 1,850,000 shares of the Company’s common stock was issued, subject to certain restrictions, to current and former RATLab employees and consultants.

As of March 31, 2011, the Company had three family patent applications with the U.S. Patent Office and one patent pending in Japan. As of the report date, the Company has not received any notification from the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office as to whether any of the patents filed in 2007 will be granted.

LICENSE AGREEMENT WITH JAVELIN LLC (“Javelin”)

On January 3, 2011, the Company signed a Commercial License Agreement (“License Agreement”) with Seattle based Javelin for development of environmental diagnostic applications of its SPM technology.

The License Agreement, which is exclusive for environmental applications, is perpetual and lasts until the Visualant IP expires. It provides for payments of 5% of Javelin’s revenues, market-rate royalties of $15,000 in year one (which was prepaid) and increasing to $47,407 in year five and profit sharing of 25% of license or transfer of technology. Javelin has certain performance milestones by year 2 and 3. The License Agreement can be terminated by Visualant for failure of Javelin to meet the performance milestones and by Javelin with thirty days notice.

14.	STOCK OPTIONS

Description of Stock Option Plan

On April 29, 2011, the 2011 Stock Incentive Plan was approved at the Annual Stockholder Meeting. The Company reserved 7,000,000 shares of Common Stock for issuance under the 2011 Stock Incentive Plan.

Determining Fair Value Under ASC 505

The Company records compensation expense associated with stock options and other equity-based compensation using the Black-Scholes-Merton option valuation model for estimating fair value of stock options granted under our plan. The Company amortizes the fair value of stock options on a ratable basis over the requisite service periods, which are generally the vesting periods. The expected life of awards granted represents the period of time that they are expected to be outstanding. The Company estimates the volatility of our common stock based on the historical volatility of its own common stock over the most recent period corresponding with the estimated expected life of the award. The Company bases the risk-free interest rate used in the Black-Scholes-Merton option valuation model on the implied yield currently available on U.S. Treasury zero-coupon issues with an equivalent remaining term equal to the expected life of the award. The Company has not paid any cash dividends on our common stock and do not anticipate paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future. Consequently, the Company uses an expected dividend yield of zero in the Black-Scholes-Merton option valuation model and adjust share-based compensation for changes to the estimate of expected equity award forfeitures based on actual forfeiture experience. The effect of adjusting the forfeiture rate is recognized in the period the forfeiture estimate is changed.

Forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties and actual results and outcomes may differ materially from the results and outcomes discussed in the forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences in results and outcomes include, but are not limited to, those discussed below as well as those discussed elsewhere in this report (including in Part II, Item 1A (Risk Factors)). Readers are urged not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements because they speak only as of the date of this report. We undertake no obligation to revise or update any forward-looking statements in order to reflect any event or circumstance that may arise after the date of this report.

THE COMPANY AND OUR BUSINESS

We were incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on October 8, 1998 with authorized common stock of 200,000,000 shares at $0.001 par value. On September 13, 2002, 50,000,000 shares of preferred stock with a par value of $0.001 were authorized by the shareholders. There are no preferred shares issued and the terms have not been determined. Our executive offices are located in Seattle, Washington.

We develop low-cost, high speed, light-based security and quality control solutions for use in homeland security, anti-counterfeiting, forgery/fraud prevention, brand protection and process control applications. Our patent-pending technology uses controlled illumination with specific bands of light, to establish a unique spectral signature for both individual and classes of items. When matched against existing databases, these spectral signatures allow precise identification and authentication of any item or substance. This breakthrough optical sensing and data capture technology is called Spectral Pattern Matching (SPM). SPM technology can be miniaturized and is easily integrated into a variety of hand-held or fixed mount configurations, and can be combined in the same package as a bar-code or biometric scanner. As of June 30, 2011, we had three family patent applications with the U.S. Patent Office and one patent pending in Japan.

Through our wholly owned subsidiary, TransTech, we provide security and authentication solutions to security and law enforcement markets throughout the United States.

ACQUISITION OF TRANSTECH

We closed the acquisition of TransTech of Aurora, OR on June 8, 2010 and recorded the results from June 8, 2010 to June 30, 2011.

Our strategy for the next 18 to 24 months is to generate substantially increased revenues through the further acquisition of other high quality companies complementary to TransTech, growth of TransTech and the sale and license of SPM products.

LICENSE AGREEMENT WITH JAVELIN

On January 3, 2011, we signed a Commercial License Agreement (“License Agreement”) with Seattle based Javelin for development of environmental diagnostic applications of our SPM technology.

ACQUISITION OF RATLAB

On June 7, 2011, we closed the acquisition of all Visualant related assets of the RATLab LLC.

The RATLab is a Seattle based research and development laboratory created by Dr. Tom Furness, founder and Director of the HITLab International, with labs at Seattle, University of Canterbury in New Zealand, and the University of Tasmania in Australia. Guided by Dr. Tom Furness and Dr. Brian Schowengerdt, a research scientist in the field of optics and vision science, who developed the Spectral Pattern Matching (“SPM”) technology under contract for Visualant.

With this acquisition, we will consolidate all intellectual property relating to the SPM technology. In addition to its current authentication and security applications of SPM, we will now own all other applications including the important fields of medicine, agriculture, and the environment and begin the creation of the Visualant Laboratory.

PROPOSED ACQUISITION OF EAGLE

On January 24, 2011, the Company announced that it signed a letter of intent to acquire Eagle (www.eagletechnologiesusa.com) of Brea, California.

On June 27, 2011, the Company announced that it signed a new letter of intent to Eagle.

THE COMPANY’S COMMON STOCK

Our common stock trades on the OTCBB Exchange under the symbol “VSUL.OB.”

KEY MARKET PRIORITIES

Currently, our key market priorities are, among other things, as follows to:

•

Commercialize the Visualant technology and close sales in the United States and Japan.

•

Implement synergies between TransTech acquisition and the Company.

	•	Develop license and royalty producing opportunities for the SPM technology outside the core security and authentication marketplace to include medical, agricultural and environmental diagnostics.

	•	Close the acquisition of Eagle.

	•	Pursue additional acquisitions which extend the product range and geographic reach of TransTech.

	•	Develop our patent portfolio by continually extending the reach and application of our intellectual property.

	•	Pursue grants from governmental and private sources to fund the exploration of new and unique applications of the SPM technology.

	•	Improve profitability of the Company by increasing sales and managing expenses.

	•	Enhance our investor relations activities.

•

Acquire growth businesses at discounted prices in our target sectors and markets in conjunction with business partners. We expect to focus on growth opportunities with distressed businesses that require improvements in management, financial processes and liquidity to be successful.

PRIMARY RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES

We are exposed to various risks related to our need for additional financing, the sale of significant numbers of our shares, a volatile market price for our common stock and our merger and acquisition activities. These risks and uncertainties are discussed in more detail below in Part II, Item 1A.

ITEM 4.

CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Our principal executive officer and principal financial officer evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of June 30, 2011. Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that, as of June 30, 2011, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective in ensuring that (1) information to be disclosed in reports we file under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified by the rules and forms promulgated under the Exchange Act and (2) information required to be disclosed in reports filed under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the principal executive officer and principal financial officer as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. There were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the Company’s last fiscal quarter that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1A.

RISK FACTORS

There are certain inherent risks which will have an effect on the Company’s development in the future and some of these risk factors are noted below but are not all encompassing since there may be others unknown to management at the present time which might have an impact in the future on the development of the Company.

WE WILL NEED ADDITIONAL FINANCING TO SUPPORT OUR TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPMENT, ACQUIRING OR INVESTING IN NEW BUSINESSES AND ONGOING OPERATIONS.

We will need to obtain additional financing to implement the business plan, service our debt repayments and acquire new businesses. There can be no assurance that we will be able to secure funding, or that if such funding is available, the terms or conditions would be acceptable to us. If the Company is unable to obtain additional financing, we may need to restructure our operations, divest all or a portion of our business or file for bankruptcy.

Our recent efforts to generate additional liquidity, including through sales of our common stock, are described in more detail in the financial statement notes set forth in this report.

If we raise additional capital through borrowing or other debt financing, we will incur substantial interest expense. Sales of additional equity securities will dilute on a pro rata basis the percentage ownership of all holders of common stock. When we raise more equity capital in the future, it will result in substantial dilution to our current stockholders.

THE SALE OF A SIGNIFICANT NUMBER OF OUR SHARES OF COMMON STOCK COULD DEPRESS THE PRICE OF OUR COMMON STOCK.

Sales or issuances of a large number of shares of common stock in the public market or the perception that sales may occur could cause the market price of our common stock to decline. As of August 2, 2011, there were 47.6lders, other Company insiders and other large shareholders. As “affiliates” (as defined under Rule 144 of the Securities Act (“Rule 144”)) of the Company, our principal shareholders, other Company insiders and other large shareholders may only sell their shares of common stock in the public market pursuant to an effective registration statement or in compliance with Rule 144.

Some of the present shareholders have acquired shares at prices as low as $0.001 per share, whereas other shareholders have purchased their shares at prices ranging from $0.10 to $0.75 per share.

WE MAY ENGAGE IN ACQUISITIONS, MERGERS, STRATEGIC ALLIANCES, JOINT VENTURES AND DIVESTITURES THAT COULD RESULT IN FINANCIAL RESULTS THAT ARE DIFFERENT THAN EXPECTED.

In the normal course of business, we engage in discussions relating to possible acquisitions, equity investments, mergers, strategic alliances, joint ventures and divestitures. Such transactions are accompanied by a number of risks, including:

- Use of significant amounts of cash,

- Potentially dilutive issuances of equity securities on potentially unfavorable terms,

- Incurrence of debt on potentially unfavorable terms as well as impairment expenses related to goodwill and amortization expenses related to other intangible assets, and

- The possibility that we may pay too much cash or issue too many of our shares as the purchase price for an acquisition relative to the economic benefits that we ultimately derive from such acquisition.

- The process of integrating any acquisition may create unforeseen operating difficulties and expenditures. The areas where we may face difficulties include:

- Diversion of management time, during the period of negotiation through closing and after closing, from its focus on operating the businesses to issues of integration,

- Decline in employee morale and retention issues resulting from changes in compensation, reporting relationships, future prospects or the direction of the business,

- The need to integrate each Company's accounting, management information, human resource and other administrative systems to permit effective management, and the lack of control if such integration is delayed or not implemented,

- The need to implement controls, procedures and policies appropriate for a public Company that may not have been in place in private companies, prior to acquisition,

- The need to incorporate acquired technology, content or rights into our products and any expenses related to such integration, and

- The need to successfully develop any acquired in-process technology to realize any value capitalized as intangible assets.

From time to time, we have also engaged in discussions with candidates regarding the potential acquisitions of our product lines, technologies and businesses. If a divestiture such as this does occur, we cannot be certain that our business, operating results and financial condition will not be materially and adversely affected. A successful divestiture depends on various factors, including our ability to:

- Effectively transfer liabilities, contracts, facilities and employees to any purchaser,

- Identify and separate the intellectual property to be divested from the intellectual property that we wish to retain,

- Reduce fixed costs previously associated with the divested assets or business, and

- Collect the proceeds from any divestitures.

In addition, if customers of the divested business do not receive the same level of service from the new owners, this may adversely affect our other businesses to the extent that these customers also purchase other products offered by us. All of these efforts require varying levels of management resources, which may divert our attention from other business operations.

If we do not realize the expected benefits or synergies of any divestiture transaction, our consolidated financial position, results of operations, cash flows and stock price could be negatively impacted.

WE MAY INCUR LOSSES IN THE FUTURE.

We have experienced net losses since inception. There can be no assurance that we will achieve or maintain profitability.

THE MARKET PRICE OF OUR COMMON STOCK MAY BE VOLATILE.

The market price of our common stock has been and is likely in the future to be volatile. Our common stock price may fluctuate in response to factors such as:

	•	Announcements by us regarding liquidity, significant acquisitions, equity investments and divestitures, strategic relationships, addition or loss of significant customers and contracts, capital expenditure commitments, loan, note payable and agreement defaults, loss of our subsidiaries and impairment of assets,
	•	Issuance of convertible or equity securities for general or merger and acquisition purposes,
	•	Issuance or repayment of debt, accounts payable or convertible debt for general or merger and acquisition purposes,
	•	Sale of a significant number of our common stock by shareholders,
	•	General market and economic conditions,

	•	Quarterly variations in our operating results,
	•	Investor relation activities,
	•	Announcements of technological innovations,
	•	New product introductions by us or our competitors,
	•	Competitive activities, and
	•	Additions or departures of key personnel.

These broad market and industry factors may have a material adverse effect on the market price of our common stock, regardless of our actual operating performance. These factors could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

FUTURE ISSUANCE OF STOCK OPTIONS, WARRANTS AND /OR RIGHTS MAY HAVE A DILUTING FACTOR ON EXISTING AND FUTURE SHAREHOLDERS.

The grant and exercise of stock options, warrants or rights to be issued in the future will likely result in a dilution of the value of the Company’s common shares for all shareholders. The Company has established a Combined Incentive and Non-Qualified Stock Option Plan and may in the future issue further stock options to officers, directors and consultants which will dilute the interest of the existing and future shareholders. Moreover, the Company may seek authorization to increase the number of its authorized shares and sell additional securities and/or rights to purchase such securities at any time in the future. Dilution of the value of the common shares will likely result from such sales, which in turn could adversely affect the market price of our common stock.

OUR CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER HAS SUBSTANTIAL INFLUENCE OVER OUR COMPANY.

As of August 2, 2011, Mr. Erickson and his immediate family members, either directly or indirectly, own or control 5,206,473 shares as of the filing date or approximately11.1% of our common stock. These Controlling Shareholders have stated in a Schedule 13D that they may be deemed to constitute a “group” for the purposes of Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act. Mr. Ronald P. Erickson, our Chief Executive officer, controls each of our Controlling Shareholders.

This group, could cause a change of control of our board of directors, if in combination with another large shareholder elects candidates of their choice to the board at a shareholder meeting, and approve or disapprove any matter requiring stockholder approval, regardless of how our other shareholders may vote. Further, under Nevada law, the group could have a significant influence over our affairs, if in combination with another large shareholder, including the power to cause, delay or prevent a change in control or sale of the Company, which in turn could adversely affect the market price of our common stock.

TRADING IN THE COMPANY’S STOCK MAY BE RESTRICTED BY BLUE SKY ELIGIBILITY AND THE SEC’S PENNY STOCK REGULATIONS.

The SEC has adopted regulations which generally define "penny stock" to be any equity security that has a market price (as defined) less than $5.00 per share or an exercise price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions. Under the penny stock rules, additional sales practice requirements are imposed on broker-dealers who sell to persons other than established customers and "accredited investors." The term "accredited investor" refers generally to institutions with assets in excess of $5,000,000 or individuals with a net worth in excess of $1,000,000 or annual income exceeding $200,000 or $300,000 jointly with their spouse. The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from the rules, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document in a form prepared by the SEC which provides information about penny stocks and the nature and level of risks in the penny stock market. The broker-dealer also must provide the customer with current bid and offer quotations for the penny stock, the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson in the transaction, and monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer's account. The bid and offer quotations, and the broker-dealer and salesperson compensation information, must be given to the customer orally or in writing prior to effecting the transaction and must be given to the customer in writing before or with the customer's confirmation. In addition, the penny stock rules require that prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from these rules, the broker-dealer must make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser's written agreement to the transaction. These disclosure requirements may have the effect of reducing the level of trading activity in the secondary market for the stock that is subject to broker-dealers to trade in the Company’s securities.

The penny stock rules may discourage investor interest in and limit the marketability of, the Company’s common stock.

RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH EQUITY LINE OF CREDIT WITH ASCENDIANT

The Securities Purchase Agreement with Ascendiant will terminate if our common stock is not listed on one of several specified trading markets (which include the OTCBB and Pink Sheets, among others), if we file protection from its creditors or if a Registration Statement on Form S-1 or S-3 is not effective.

If the price or the trading volume of our common stock does not reach certain levels, we will be unable to draw down all or substantially all of our $3,000,000 equity line of credit with Ascendiant.

The maximum draw down amount every 8 trading days under our equity line of credit facility is the lesser of $100,000 or 20% of the total trading volume of our common stock for the 10-trading-day period prior to the draw down multiplied by the volume-weighted average price of our common stock for such period. If our stock price and trading volume decline from at current levels, we will not be able to draw down all $3,000,000 available under the equity line of credit.

If we not able to draw down all $3,000,000 available under the equity line of credit or if the Securities Purchase Agreement is terminated, we may be forced to curtail the scope of our operations or alter our business plan if other financing is not available to us.

CONFLICT OF INTEREST.

Some of the directors of the Company are also directors and officers of other companies, and conflicts of interest may arise between their duties as directors of the Company and as directors and officers of other companies. These factors could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

WE ARE DEPENDENT ON KEY PERSONNEL.

Our success depends to a significant degree upon the continued contributions of key management and other personnel, some of whom could be difficult to replace. We do not maintain key man life insurance covering certain of our officers. Our success will depend on the performance of our officers, our ability to retain and motivate our officers, our ability to integrate new officers into our operations and the ability of all personnel to work together effectively as a team. Our failure to retain and recruit officers and other key personnel could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

WE HAVE LIMITED INSURANCE.

We have limited director and officer insurance and commercial insurance policies. Any significant claims would have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
