RISK FACTORS
 
This investment has a high degree of risk. Before you invest you should carefully consider the risks and uncertainties described below and the other information in this prospectus. If any of the following risks actually occur, our business, operating results and financial condition could be harmed and the value of our stock could go down. This means you could lose all or a part of your investment.
 
Business Risk Factors

Investors may lose their entire investment if we fail to reach profitability.

The Company was incorporated in September 1991 but did not engage in meaningful business operations until February 2005 when we acquired GEM Delaware.  Our prospects must be considered in light of the risks, uncertainties, expenses and difficulties frequently encountered by companies in their early stages of development. We cannot guarantee that we will be successful in accomplishing our objectives. To date, we have incurred only losses and may continue to incur losses in the foreseeable future. Investors should therefore be aware that they may lose their entire investment in the Units.

We have a limited operating history on which to evaluate our potential for future success. This makes it difficult to evaluate our future prospects and the risk of success or failure of our business.

Our short operating history and results of operations may not give you an accurate indication of our future results of operations or prospects. You must consider our business and prospects in light of the risks and difficulties we will encounter as an early-stage company in a highly competitive market. We may not be able to successfully address these risks and difficulties, which could materially harm our business and operating results.

The company has a history of losses and may need additional financing to continue its operations, and such financing may not be available upon favorable terms, if at all.

The Company experienced net operating losses of $17,965,074 and $4,890,228 for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2006 and December 31, 2005, respectively and a net operating loss of $14,819,205 for the nine month period ended September 30, 2007. There can be no assurances that the Company will be able to operate profitably in the future. In the event that the Company is not successful in implementing its business plan, the Company will require additional financing in order to succeed. There can be no assurance that additional financing will be available now or in the future on terms that are acceptable to the Company. If adequate funds are not available or are not available on acceptable terms, the Company may be unable to develop or enhance its products and services, take advantage of future opportunities or respond to competitive pressures, all of which could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition or operating results.

Our independent auditors have issued a going concern opinion that has raised substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

Our independent auditor’s report on our consolidated financial statements for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2006 and 2005 includes an explanatory paragraph stating that because we have had recurring losses from operations, and a working capital deficiency, there is a substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.  Our consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.  Our net loss from operations from inception to September 30, 2007 is approximately $48.1 million.  Our continued existence will depend in large part on our ability to successfully secure additional financing to fund future operations and to begin to operate profitably.  However, there can be no assurances that the Company will be successful in this regard or will be able to eliminate its working capital deficit or operating losses.

The assets of the Company are now substantially pledged under the recent agreements with Secured Lenders and may prevent the Company from obtaining any additional asset based financing.

In conjunction with a secured convertible term note and a secured revolving note, all unsubordinated assets of the Company and its subsidiaries are secured under agreements with Laurus Master Fund, Ltd., (“Laurus”), Valens U.S. SPV I, LLC (“Valens US”) and Valens Offshore SPV II, Corp. (“Valens”). (Laurus, Valens and Valens US are sometimes referred to as the “Secured Lenders”) Without any unsecured assets, the Company could be unable to obtain any future asset based financing.
 
7


The agreements with Secured Lenders contain terms that could place the Company in default related to the outstanding borrowings.

The agreements with the Secured Lenders include terms of default related to the funds borrowed.  These include default due to non-payment, failure to pay taxes, failure to perform under the agreements, failure to disclose items of a material nature under certain representations and warranties, attachments to any secured assets or the indictment of the Company or its executive officers for any criminal acts.  This default could result in the loss of the business.

The agreements with the Secured Lenders contain terms where the Secured Lenders can convert their notes to common shares and exercise warrants for common shares which could have an adverse affect upon the price of our common shares.

These conversions to common shares and exercise of warrants could dilute the current shareholder base, limit the Company’s ability to raise additional equity capital and limit the eventual price of common shares in the market because of the potential dilution and the fixed conversion and exercise prices of the notes and warrants respectively.

We depend heavily on our management team and the loss of any or all of the members of such management team could materially adversely affect our business, results of operations and our financial condition.

Our success depends, to a significant extent, upon the efforts, the abilities and the business experience of Timothy J. Koziol, our chief executive officer, as well as on these same attributes of our other officers and management team. Loss of the services of any or all of our management team could materially adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition, and could cause us to fail to successfully implement our business plan.

There is intense competition for qualified technical professionals and sales and marketing personnel, and our failure to attract and retain these people could affect our ability to respond to rapid technological changes and to increase our revenues.

Our future success depends upon our ability to attract and retain qualified technical professionals and sales and marketing personnel. Competition for talented personnel, particularly technical professionals, is intense. This competition could increase the costs of hiring and retaining personnel. We may not be able to attract, retain, and adequately motivate our personnel or to integrate new personnel into our operations successfully.

Our industrial waste management services subject us to potential environmental liability.

Our business of rendering services in connection with management of waste, including certain types of hazardous waste, subjects us to risks of liability for damages. Such liability could involve, without limitation, claims for clean-up costs, personal injury or damage to the environment in cases in which we are held responsible for the release of hazardous materials, and claims of employees, customers, or third parties for personal injury or property damage occurring in the course of our operations.  We could also be deemed a responsible party for the cost of cleaning any property which may be contaminated by hazardous substances generated by us and disposed at such property or transported by us to a site selected by us, including properties we own or lease.

If we cannot maintain our government permits or cannot obtain any required permits, we may not be able to continue or expand our operations.

Our business is subject to extensive, evolving, and increasingly stringent federal, state, and local environmental laws and regulations. Such federal, state, and local environmental laws and regulations govern our activities regarding the treatment, storage, recycling, disposal, and transportation of hazardous and non-hazardous waste. We must obtain and maintain permits, licenses and/or approvals to conduct these activities in compliance with such laws and regulations. Failure to obtain and maintain the required permits, licenses and/or approvals would have a material adverse effect on our operations and financial condition. If we are unable to maintain our currently held permits, licenses, and/or approvals or obtain any additional permits, licenses and/or approvals which may be required as we expand our operations, we may not be able to continue certain of our operations.

Changes in environmental regulations and enforcement policies could subject us to additional liability which could impair our ability to continue certain operations due to the regulated nature of our operations.

Because the environmental industry continues to develop rapidly, we cannot predict the extent to which our operations may be affected by future enforcement policies as applied to existing laws, by changes to current environmental laws and regulations, or by the enactment of new environmental laws and regulations. Any predictions regarding possible liability under such laws are complicated further by current environmental laws which provide that we could be liable, jointly and severally, for certain activities of third parties over whom we have limited or no control.
 
8


Environmental regulation significantly impacts our business.

While our business has benefited substantially from increased governmental regulation of hazardous waste transportation, storage and disposal, the environmental services industry itself has become the subject of extensive and evolving regulation by federal, state, provincial and local authorities. We are required to obtain federal, state, provincial and local permits or approvals for each of our hazardous waste facilities. Such permits are difficult to obtain and, in many instances, extensive studies, tests, and public hearings are required before the approvals can be issued. We have acquired all operating permits and approvals now required for the current operation of our business, and have applied for, or are in the process of applying for, all permits and approvals needed in connection with continued operation and planned expansion or modifications of our operations.

The most significant federal environmental laws affecting us are the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act ("RCRA"), The Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act ("CERCLA"), also known as the Superfund Act, the Clean Air Act, the Clean Water Act and the Toxic Substances Control Act ("TSCA").

We make a continuing effort to anticipate regulatory, political and legal developments that might affect operations, but are not always able to do so. We cannot predict the extent to which any environmental legislation or regulation that may be enacted or enforced in the future may affect our operations.

As our operations expand, we may be subject to increased litigation which could have a negative impact on our future financial results.

Our operations are regulated by numerous laws regarding procedures for waste treatment, storage, recycling, transportation and disposal activities, all of which may provide the basis for litigation against us. In recent years, the waste treatment industry has experienced a significant increase in so-called "toxic-tort" litigation as those injured by contamination seek to recover for personal injuries or property damage. We believe that as our operations and activities expand, there will be a similar increase in the potential for litigation alleging that we are responsible for contamination or pollution caused by our normal operations, negligence or other misconduct, or for accidents which occur in the course of our business activities. Such litigation, if significant and not adequately insured against, could impair our ability to fund our operations. Protracted litigation would likely cause us to spend significant amounts of our time, effort and money. This could prevent our management from focusing on our operations and expansion.

If we cannot maintain adequate insurance coverage, we will be unable to continue certain operations.

Our business exposes us to various risks, including claims for causing damage to property and injuries to persons that may involve allegations of negligence or professional errors or omissions in the performance of our services. Such claims could be substantial. We believe that our insurance coverage is presently adequate and similar or higher than the coverage maintained by other companies in the industry of our size. However, if we are unable to obtain adequate or required insurance coverage in the future or, if our insurance is not available at affordable rates, we would violate our permit conditions and other requirements of the environmental laws, rules and regulations under which we operate. Such violations would render us unable to continue certain of our operations. These events would have a material adverse effect on our financial condition.

Our operations will suffer if we are unable to manage our rapid growth.

We are currently experiencing a period of rapid growth through internal expansion and strategic acquisitions. This growth has placed, and could continue to place, a significant strain on our management, personnel and other resources. Our ability to grow will require us to effectively manage our collaborative arrangements and to continue to improve our operational, management, and financial systems and controls, and to successfully train, motivate and manage our employees. If we are unable to effectively manage our growth, we may not realize the expected benefits of such growth, and such failure could have a material adverse effect on our operations and financial condition.

Our success is connected to our ability to maintain our proprietary technologies.

The steps taken by us to protect our proprietary technologies may not be adequate to prevent misappropriation of these technologies by third parties. Misappropriation of our proprietary technology could have an adverse effect on our operations and financial condition. Changes to current environmental laws and regulations also could limit the use of our proprietary technology.

We may have difficulty integrating future acquisitions into our existing operations.

Our intentions are to acquire existing businesses in our industry. To the extent that we make such acquisitions, of which there can be no assurance, the acquisitions will involve the integration of companies that have previously operated independently from us. We cannot assure that we will be able to fully integrate the operations of these companies without encountering difficulties or experiencing the loss of key employees or customers of such companies. In addition, we cannot assure that the benefits expected from such integration will be realized.

If environmental regulation or enforcement is relaxed, the demand for our services will decrease.

The demand for our services is substantially dependent upon the public's concern with, the continuation and proliferation of, the laws and regulations governing the treatment, storage, recycling, and disposal of hazardous and non-hazardous waste. A decrease in the level of public concern, the repeal or modification of these laws, or any significant relaxation of regulations relating to the treatment, storage, recycling, and disposal of hazardous waste would significantly reduce the demand for our services and could have a material adverse effect on our operations and financial condition. We are not aware of any current federal or state government or agency efforts in which a moratorium or limitation has been, or will be, placed upon the creation of new hazardous waste regulations that would have a material adverse effect on us.

Impairment of goodwill and other intangible assets would result in a decrease in earnings.
 
Current accounting rules require that goodwill and other intangible assets with indefinite useful lives no longer be amortized, but instead be tested for impairment at least annually. These rules also require that intangible assets with definite useful lives be amortized over their respective estimated useful lives to their estimated residual values, and reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. To the extent such evaluation indicates that the useful lives of intangible assets are different than originally estimated, the amortization period is reduced or extended and, accordingly, the quarterly amortization expense is increased or decreased.
 
We have substantial goodwill and other intangible assets, and we may be required to record a significant charge to earnings in our financial statements during the period in which any impairment of our goodwill or amortizable intangible assets is determined. Any impairment charges or changes to the estimated amortization periods could have a material adverse effect on our financial results.

An economic downturn could affect our business in a negative manner, more so than other businesses generally causing our business prospects to suffer.

Although environmental compliance cannot be short circuited in any economic environment, waste, generally, is viewed as trash and considered low on the priority list when economic conditions bring cut backs in operational spending. Accordingly, our services may be in less demand during a time of economic downturn and our business may suffer.

We face substantial competition from better established companies that may have significantly greater resources which could lead to reduced sales of our products.

The market for our services is competitive and is likely to become even more competitive in the future. Increased competition could result in pricing pressures, reduced sales, reduced margins or the failure of our services to achieve or maintain market acceptance, any of which would have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition. Many of our current and potential competitors enjoy substantial competitive advantages, such as:

·  
greater name recognition and larger marketing budgets and resources;
·  
established marketing relationships and access to larger customer bases;
·  
substantially greater financial, technical and other resources; and
·  
larger technical and support staffs.

As a result, they may be able to garner more clients than we can. For the foregoing reason, we may not be able to compete successfully against our current and future competitors.

The conversion of our convertible debt, the exercise of our outstanding warrants and options and the Company's various anti-dilution and price-protection agreements could cause the market price of our common stock to fall, and may have dilutive and other effects on our existing stockholders.

The conversion of our outstanding convertible debentures, convertible preferred stock and the exercise of our outstanding warrants and options could result in the issuance of up to an additional 11,462,000 shares of common stock, assuming all outstanding warrants and options are currently exercisable, and taken with the Company's various anti-dilution and price-protection agreements, are subject to adjustment pursuant to certain anti-dilution and price-protection provisions. Such issuances would reduce the percentage of ownership of our existing common stockholders and could, among other things, depress the price of our common stock. This result could detrimentally affect our ability to raise additional equity capital. In addition, the sale of these additional shares of common stock may cause the market price of our stock to decrease.

There are potential liabilities arising out of environmental laws and regulations.

Although the Company believes that it generally benefits from increased environmental regulations and from enforcement of those regulations, increased regulation and enforcement also create significant risks for the Company. The assessment, analysis, remediation, transportation, handling and management of hazardous substances necessarily involve significant risks, including the possibility of damages or personal injuries caused by the escape of hazardous materials into the environment, and the possibility of fines, penalties or other regulatory action. These risks include potentially large civil and criminal liabilities to customers and to third parties for damages arising from performing services for customers. See "Environmental Regulation."

All facets of the Company's business are conducted in the context of a rapidly developing and changing statutory and regulatory framework. The Company's operations and services are affected by and subject to regulation by a number of federal agencies including the Environmental Protection Agency (the "EPA") and the Occupational Safety and Health Administration, as well as applicable state and local regulatory agencies.

The Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act of 1980, as amended (the "Superfund Act"), addresses the cleanup of sites at which there has been a release or threatened release of hazardous substances into the environment. Increasingly, there are efforts to expand the reach of the Superfund Act to make hazardous waste management companies responsible for cleanup costs of Superfund sites not owned or operated by such management companies by claiming that such management companies are "owners" or "operators" (as those terms are defined in the Superfund Act) of such sites or that such management companies arranged for "treatment, transportation or disposal" (as those terms are defined in the Superfund Act) of hazardous substances to or in such sites. Several recent court decisions have accepted such claims. Should the Company be held responsible under the Superfund Act for cleanup costs as a result of performing services or otherwise, it might be forced to bear significantly more than its proportional share of such cleanup costs if other responsible parties do not pay their share. See "Business--Legal Proceedings."

The Resource Conservation and Recovery Act of 1976, as amended in 1984 ("RCRA"), is the principal federal statute governing hazardous waste generation, treatment, transportation, storage and disposal. RCRA or EPA approved state programs at least as stringent govern waste handling activities involving wastes classified as "hazardous." See "Environmental Regulation-- Federal Regulation of Hazardous Wastes." Substantial fees and penalties may be imposed under RCRA and similar state statutes for any violation of such statutes and regulations thereunder.

There are potential liabilities involving customers and third parties.

In performing services for its customers, the Company potentially could be liable for breach of contract, personal injury, property damage (including environmental impairment), and negligence, including claims for lack of timely performance or for failure to deliver the service promised (including improper or negligent performance or design, failure to meet specifications, and breaches of express or implied warranties). The damages available to a client, should it prevail in its claims, are potentially large and could include consequential damages.

Industrial waste management companies, in connection with work performed for customers, also potentially face liabilities to third parties from various claims including claims for property damage or personal injury stemming from a release of hazardous substances or otherwise. Claims for damage to third parties could arise in a number of ways, including: through a sudden and accidental release or discharge of contaminants or pollutants during transportation of wastes or the performance of services; through the inability, despite reasonable care, of a remedial plan to contain or correct an ongoing seepage or release of pollutants; through the inadvertent exacerbation of an existing contamination problem; or through reliance on reports prepared by such waste management companies. Personal injury claims could arise contemporaneously with performance of the work or long after completion of projects as a result of alleged exposure to toxic or hazardous substances. In addition, increasing numbers of claimants assert that companies performing environmental remediation should be adjudged strictly liable for damages even though their services were performed using reasonable care, on the grounds that such services involved "abnormally dangerous activities."

Customers of industrial waste management companies frequently attempt to shift various of the liabilities arising out of disposal of their wastes or remediation of their environmental problems to contractors through contractual indemnities. Such provisions seek to require the contractors to assume liabilities for damage or personal injury to third parties and property and for environmental fines and penalties (including potential liabilities for cleanup costs arising under the Superfund Act). Moreover, the EPA has increasingly constricted the circumstances under which it will indemnify its contractors against liabilities incurred in connection with cleanup of Superfund sites. There are other proposals both in Congress and at the regulatory agencies to further restrict indemnification of contractors from third party claims.

Although the Company attempts to investigate thoroughly each other company that it acquires, there may be liabilities that the Company fails or is unable to discover, including liabilities arising from non-compliance with environmental laws by prior owners, and for which the Company, as a successor owner, might be responsible. The Company seeks to minimize the impact of these liabilities by obtaining indemnities and warranties from sellers of companies which may be supported by deferring payment of or by escrowing a portion of the purchase price. However, these indemnities and warranties, if obtained, may not fully cover the liabilities due to their limited scope, amounts, or duration, the financial limitations of the indemnitors or warrantors or other reasons.

We do not anticipate paying dividends in the foreseeable future.

We anticipate that we will retain all future earnings and other cash resources for the future operation and development of our business and we do not intend to declare or pay any cash dividends in the foreseeable future. Future payment of cash dividends will be at the discretion of our board of directors after taking into account many factors, including our operating results, financial condition and capital requirements. Corporations that pay dividends may be viewed as a better investment than corporations that do not.

New rules, including those contained in and issued under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, may make it difficult for us to retain or attract qualified officers and directors, which could adversely affect our business and our ability to maintain the listing of our common stock on the OTC Bulletin Board.
 
We may be unable to attract and retain qualified officers, directors and members of board committees required to provide for our effective management as a result of the recent and currently proposed changes in the rules and regulations which govern publicly-held companies, including, but not limited to, certifications from executive officers and requirements for financial experts on boards of directors. The perceived increased personal risk associated with these recent changes may deter qualified individuals from accepting these roles. The enactment of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 has resulted in the issuance of a series of new rules and regulations and the strengthening of existing rules and regulations by the Securities and Exchange Commission, as well as the adoption of new and more stringent rules by the Nasdaq Stock Market.
 
Further, certain of these recent and proposed changes heighten the requirements for board or committee membership, particularly with respect to an individual’s independence from the corporation and level of experience in finance and accounting matters. We may have difficulty attracting and retaining directors with the requisite qualifications. If we are unable to attract and retain qualified officers and directors, our business and our ability to maintain the listing of our shares of Common stock on the Nasdaq National Market could be adversely affected.

If we fail to maintain an effective system of internal controls, we may not be able to accurately report our financial results or prevent fraud, which could harm our brand and operating results.
 
Effective internal controls are necessary for us to provide reliable and accurate financial reports and effectively prevent fraud. We have devoted significant resources and time to comply with the new internal control over financial reporting requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. In addition, Section 404 under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 requires that we assess and our auditors attest to the design and operating effectiveness of our controls over financial reporting. Our compliance with the annual internal control report requirement begins with the filing of the 10KSB due March 30, 2008, the requisite SEC compliance date for non-accelerated filers, will depend on the effectiveness of our financial reporting and data systems and controls across our operating subsidiaries. We expect these systems and controls to become increasingly complex to the extent that we integrate acquisitions and our business grows. To effectively manage this growth, we will need to continue to improve our operational, financial and management controls and our reporting systems and procedures. We cannot be certain that these measures will ensure that we design, implement and maintain adequate controls over our financial processes and reporting in the future. Any failure to implement required new or improved controls, or difficulties encountered in their implementation or operation, could harm our operating results or cause us to fail to meet our financial reporting obligations. Inferior internal controls could also cause investors to lose confidence in our reported financial information, which could have a negative effect on the trading price of our stock and our access to capital.
 
Recently adopted changes in accounting rules and regulations, such as expensing of stock options and shares issued through the employee stock purchase plan, will result in unfavorable accounting charges and may require us to change our compensation policies.
 
Accounting methods and policies regarding expensing stock options are subject to review, interpretation and guidance from relevant accounting authorities, including the Financial Accounting Standards Board, or FASB.
 
For example, during the year ended December 31, 2005 we were not required to record stock-based compensation charges if an employee’s stock option exercise price equals or exceeds the fair value of our common stock at the date of grant. On December 16, 2004, the FASB adopted SFAS No. 123(R), a revised final statement of financial accounting standards which requires us, as a small business issuer, to expense the fair value of stock options granted for periods that begin to vest after December 15, 2005. We rely heavily on stock options to compensate existing employees and attract new employees. In light of these new requirements to expense stock options and shares issued under the employee stock purchase plan, we may choose to reduce our reliance on these as compensation tools. If we reduce our use of stock options and the employee stock purchase plan, it may be more difficult for us to attract and retain qualified employees and we may need to compensate our employees with greater amounts of cash or other incentives. If we do not reduce our reliance on stock options and the employee stock purchase plan our reported losses will increase. Further changes to interpretations of accounting methods or policies in the future may require us to adversely revise how our financial statements are prepared.

Our stock could be the subject of short selling and, if this occurs, the market price of our stock could be adversely affected and, in turn, adversely effect our ability raise additional capital through the sale of our common stock.

It is conceivable that our stock could be subject to the practice of short owned directly by the seller; rather, the stock is "loaned" for the sale by a broker-dealer to someone who "shorts" the stock. In most situations, this is a short-term strategy by a seller, and based upon volume, may at times drive stock values down. If such shorting occurs in our common stock, there could be a negative effect on the trading price of our stock. If the trading price of our common stock decreases, this may negatively impact our ability to raise additional capital through the sale of our common stock.

If we fail to remain current on our reporting requirements, we could be removed from the OTC bulletin board, which would limit the ability of broker-dealers to sell our securities and the ability of stockholders to sell their securities in the secondary market.

Companies trading on the OTC Bulletin Board, such as us, must be reporting issuers under Section 12 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and must be current in their reports under Section 13, in order to maintain price quotation privileges on the OTC Bulletin Board. If we fail to remain current on our reporting requirements, we could be removed from the OTC Bulletin Board. As a result, the market liquidity for our securities could be severely adversely affected by limiting the ability of broker-dealers to sell our securities and the ability of stockholders to sell their securities in the secondary market.

Our common stock is subject to the "penny stock" rules of the SEC and the trading market in our securities is limited, which makes transactions in our stock cumbersome and may reduce the value of an investment in our stock.

The Securities and Exchange Commission has adopted Rule 15g-9 which establishes the definition of a "penny stock," for the purposes relevant to us, as any equity security that has a market price of less than $5.00 per share or with an exercise price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions. For any transaction involving a penny stock, unless exempt, the rules require:

·  
that a broker or dealer approve a person's account for transactions in penny stocks; and
·  
the broker or dealer receive from the investor a written agreement to the transaction, setting forth the identity and quantity of the penny stock to be purchased.

In order to approve a person's account for transactions in penny stocks, the broker or dealer must obtain financial information and investment experience objectives of the person; and  make a reasonable determination that the transactions in penny stocks are suitable for that person and the person has sufficient knowledge and experience in financial matters to be capable of valuating the risks of transactions in penny stocks.

The broker or dealer must also deliver, prior to any transaction in a penny stock, a disclosure schedule prescribed by the Commission relating to the penny stock market, which, in highlight form:

·  
sets forth the basis on which the broker or dealer made the suitability determination; and
·  
that the broker or dealer received a signed, written agreement from the investor prior to the transaction.

Generally, brokers may be less willing to execute transactions in securities subject to the "penny stock" rules. This may make it more difficult for investors to dispose of our common stock and cause a decline in the market value of our stock.

Disclosure also has to be made about the risks of investing in penny stocks in both public offerings and in secondary trading and about the commissions payable to both the broker-dealer and the registered representative, current quotations for the securities and the rights and remedies available to an investor in cases of fraud in penny stock transactions. Finally, monthly statements have to be sent disclosing recent price information for the penny stock held in the account and information on the limited market in penny stocks.

Anti-takeover actions and/or provision could prevent or delay a change in control.

Provisions of our certificate of incorporation and bylaws and Nevada law may make it more difficult for a third party to acquire us, even if so doing would be beneficial to our stockholders. These include the following:

·  
Our board of directors are authorized to issue up to 100,000,000 shares of preferred stock and to fix the rights, preferences, privileges and restrictions of those shares without any further vote or action by the stockholders, which may be used by the board to create voting impediments or otherwise delay or prevent a change in control or to modify the rights of holders of our common stock; and

·  
Limitations on who may call annual and special meetings of stockholders.

RECENT FINANCINGS
 
On March 3, 2006, we entered into a series of agreements, with an effective date of February 28, 2006, with Laurus Master Funds, Ltd.  The transaction included a $2.0 million secured convertible term note and a non-convertible revolving note up to $5.0 million.  The total remaining balance (the “Balance”) of the February 28, 2006 secured convertible term note at October 31, 2007 was $969,696.98.  On October 31, 2007, we entered into a financing agreement with Laurus Master Fund (“Laurus”), Valens U.S. SPV I, LLC (“Valens U.S.”) and Valens Offshore SPV II, Corp. (“Valens Offshore”).  In conjunction with this transaction, $569,603.55 or 58.7% of the Balance was assigned to Valens, $388,232.53 or 40.0% of this the Balance was assigned to Valens US with $11,676.56 or 1.22% remaining with Laurus Master Fund. As part of the October 31, 2007 financing arrangement, we issued additional $1,245,000 in Convertible Term Notes to Valens U.S. and Valens Offshore, which notes provided for conversion, at the option of Valens U.S. and Valens Offshore, of the amounts outstanding on the notes into the Company's common stock at a fixed conversion price of $2.78 per share. We have reserved 805,593 shares of our authorized common stock for issuance in connection with this conversion right.  As part of the transaction, we issued warrants (“October Warrants”) to Valens Offshore and Valens U.S. to purchase up to 992,727 shares of our common stock, with 661,818 October Warrants exercisable at a price of $1.38 per share, and  330,909 October Warrants exercisable at a price of $2.75 per share. The October Warrants expire on October 31, 2014.
 
From March 31, 2007 through October 5, 2007 we issued a total of 3,278,250 shares of common stock to 73 accredited investors.  The shares were issued pursuant to the conversion of assignable notes that were issued by us between December 15, 2006 and October 4, 2007.  The assignable notes were for a one year term, bore interest at 10% per annum, with principal and accrued interest convertible into shares of common stock at $1.20 per share.  In addition, we issued a total of 976,554 warrants to purchase 976,554 shares of our common stock for a period of two years at an exercise price of $0.60 per share.
 
On September 25, 2007 we issued a total of 8,251 shares of common stock to Sanders Morris Harris (“SMH Capital”) in payment of expenses related to underwriting services they performed for the Company.
 
During the six months ended June 30, 2007, Ascendiant Securities LLC, agreed to convert $312,768 in placement agent fees and expenses into 260,641 shares of common stock at a conversion rate of $1.20 per share.
 
In May, 2006, the Board of Directors authorized the private placement sale to accredited investors of up to $10 million in convertible notes (the (May Convertible Notes"). Each one dollar of principal of the May Convertible Notes was convertible into 10 shares of the Company's Common Stock. The May Convertible Notes were convertible at the Company's option at any time. The May Convertible Notes were unsecured and bore an interest rate of eight percent (8%) per annum and had a maturity date of one year from their issuance date.  From May 2006 to August 2006, the Company sold a total of  $4,753,277 in May Convertible Notes to 129 accredited investors.  On August 9, 2006 the Board of Directors authorized a modification in the terms of the May Convertible Notes so that each one dollar of principal of the May Convertible Note was convertible into 20 shares of Common Stock. On August 31, 2006 we converted the May Convertible Notes into 3,168,852 shares of common stock. On December 18, 2006 the Board of Directors determined that as a result of the Company then offering to investors shares of common stock at the equivalent of $1.20 per share, it would be fair and equitable for the Company to issue to the investors who had purchased May Convertible Notes, an amount of shares of common stock so that they will have paid the equivalent of $1.20 per share. This resulted in the issuance of 792,213 shares of common stock.

BUSINESS OF THE COMPANY
 
Company Background

General Environmental Management, Inc. formerly, Ultronics Corporation (the "Company") was incorporated under the laws of Nevada on March 14, 1990. The Company did not have operations from its inception until February 2005, as it was formed for the primary purpose of seeking an appropriate merger candidate.

On February 14, 2005, we acquired all the outstanding shares of General Environmental Management, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“GEM.DE”) in exchange for 630,481 shares of our class A common stock and as a result, GEM.DE became a wholly owned subsidiary of Ultronics.  The acquisition has been treated as a reverse  merger (recapitalization) with GEM deemed to be the accounting acquirer, and Ultronics the legal acquirer. We then changed our parent name to General Environmental Management, Inc. on March 16, 2005.

Prior to the merger, GEM.DE acquired:

·  
Hazpak Environmental Services, Inc. (HES),
 
·  
the assets of EnVectra, Inc. (EnV),

·  
the assets of  Firestone Environmental Services Company (dba Prime Environmental Services Company), and Firestone Associates, Inc. (dba Firestone Energy Company), and

·  
100% of the membership interest in Pollution Control Industries of California, LLC.

Hazpak (HES) was organized as a partnership in February of 1991 specializing in packaging hazardous waste for other hazardous waste management companies. In July of 1992, HES incorporated under the laws of California as Hazpak, Inc. On August 7, 2002 Hazpak, Inc. changed is name to Hazpak Environmental Services, Inc.  In March 2003, GEM.DE acquired HES.

On June 23, 2004, we acquired all of the membership interests in Pollution Control Industries of California, LLC. The primary asset of Pollution Control Industries of California, LLC was the real property on which a fully permitted, Part B treatment, storage, disposal facility (TSDF) in Rancho Cordova, California was located. The facility provides service for other environmental service companies and allows us to consolidate waste for more cost effective outbound treatment. Pollution Control Industries of California, LLC changed its name to General Environmental Management of Rancho Cordova, LLC on June 25, 2004.

On July 18, 2003, we acquired the assets of EnVectra, Inc., which included internet-based integrated environmental management software now marketed by us as GEMWare.

On August 1, 2004, we acquired the assets of Prime Environmental Services, Inc. of El Monte, California; which resulted in a significant increase in our revenues and a presence in the states of Washington and Alaska through Prime’s Seattle office along with additional clients and revenue in California. All Prime services are now offered under the “General Environmental Management, Inc.” name.
Prior to the acquisition of GEM.DE by the Company, GEM.DE focused its efforts in the second half of 2004 on integration of the above noted purchases and on continued internal growth. During the first quarter of 2005, we adjusted our operations to achieve greater efficiencies at the TSDF and at its field service locations.

On March 3, 2006, we entered into a series of agreements with Laurus dated as of February 28, 2006, whereby we issued to Laurus (i) a secured convertible term note ("Note") in the principal amount of $2.0 million; and, (ii) a Secured Non-Convertible Revolving Note of up to $5.0 million (the “Revolving Note”).  In October, 2007, Laurus assigned all but 1.22% of the balance of the Note to Valens U.S. SPV I, LLC (“Valens US”) and Valens Offshore SPV II, Corp. (“Valens”). The Note and Revolving Note are secured by all of our assets.

On October 31, 2007, we entered into a series of agreements with Laurus, Valens US and Valens, whereby

§  
we issued to Valens US and Valens (i) secured convertible term notes ("October Notes") in the principal amount of $1.20 million, secured by all of our assets,

§  
principal payments on the remaining balance of the Note and the October Notes was set at a total of $ 60,606.06 with the first payment, along with accrued interest to be made on March 1, 2008. Of the monthly principal payments, $30,303.03 will be applied to the Note and $30,303.03 will be applied to the October Notes.

§  
the Conversion Price of the Note and October Notes and accrued interest was set at $2.78 per share, subject to adjustment,

§  
GEM Mobile Treatment Services, Inc. was added as a party to the Note and Revolving Note, and all of the outstanding issued and outstanding capital stock of GEM Mobile Treatment Services, Inc. was pledged as collateral for the repayment of the Note and October Notes, and

§  
We issued warrants (“October Warrants”) to Valens and Valens US to purchase up to 992,727 shares of our common stock, with 661,818 October Warrants exercisable at a price of $1.38 per share, and  330,909 October Warrants exercisable at a price of $2.75 per share. The October Warrants expire on October 31, 2014.
 
16

 
The principal amount of the Note and October Notes carries an interest rate of prime plus three and one half percent, subject to adjustment.  The Note and October Notes are secured by all of our assets and the assets of our subsidiaries, Gem Delaware and its subsidiary, Gem CA, and GMT, and by a pledge of our stock in Gem Delaware, Gem CA, and GMT.

The principal amount of the Note and accrued interest thereon is convertible into shares of our common stock at a price of $2.78 per share, subject to anti-dilution adjustments. Under the terms of the Note and the October Notes, the monthly principal payment amount of approximately $60,606, plus the monthly interest payment (together, the "Monthly Payment"), is payable in either cash or, if certain criteria are met, including the effectiveness of a current registration statement covering the shares of our common stock into which the Note and October Note are convertible, through the issuance of our common stock. Laurus, Valens US and Valens have the option to convert the entire principal amount of the Note and October Notes, together with interest thereon, into shares of our common stock, provided that such conversion does not result in Laurus, Valens, and Valens US beneficially owning more that 9.99% of our outstanding shares of common stock. We have agreed to register all of the shares that are issuable upon conversion of the Note or exercise of the October Warrants.
 
The total remaining balance of the Note at October 31, 2007 was $969,696.98.   In conjunction with the October transaction, $569,603.55 or 58.7% of this balance was assigned to Valens, $388,232.53 or 40.0% of this balance was assigned to Valens US and $11,676.56 or 1.22% remained with Laurus Master Fund.
 
On March 10, 2006, the Company entered into a stock purchase agreement with K2M Mobile Treatment Services, Inc. of Long Beach, California ("K2M"), a privately held company, pursuant to which the registrant acquired all of the issued and outstanding common stock of K2M. K2M is a California-based provider of mobile wastewater treatment and vapor recovery services. In consideration of the acquisition of the issued and outstanding common stock of K2M registrant paid $1.5 million in cash to the stockholders of K2M.  As a result of the agreement, K2M becomes a wholly-owned subsidiary of the registrant. For purposes of accounting for the acquisition of the business of K2M, the effective date of the agreement was March 1, 2006.

Our principal office is in Pomona, California and field service locations in Rancho Cucamonga, CA, Santee, CA, Port Hueneme, CA, Benicia, CA, Signal Hill, CA, Kent, WA, and Baytown, TX with our TSDF in Rancho Cordova, CA.  As of September 30, 2007 we employed 133 employees.

Business Strategy

We intend to build a fully integrated environmental services company. We intend to do this through internal growth, by providing targeted, integrated solutions to the private and public sectors and by making strategic acquisitions of solutions orientated companies that have a proven customer base and a highly skilled workforce.

Governmental Regulation

Resource Conservation and Recovery Act. The origin of the hazardous waste industry began with the passage of the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) in 1976. RCRA requires waste generators to distinguish between hazardous and non-hazardous wastes and to treat, store, and dispose of those wastes in accordance with specific regulations. RCRA is the principal federal statute governing hazardous waste generation, treatment, transportation, storage and disposal. Pursuant to RCRA, the Environmental Protection Agency (the "EPA") has established a comprehensive, "cradle-to-grave" system for the management of a wide range of materials identified as hazardous or solid waste. States that have adopted hazardous waste management programs with standards at least as stringent as those promulgated by the EPA have been delegated authority by the EPA to administer their facility permitting programs in lieu of the EPA's program.

Every facility that treats, stores or disposes of hazardous waste must obtain a RCRA permit from the EPA or an authorized state agency, unless a specific exemption exists, and must comply with certain operating requirements. Under RCRA, hazardous waste management facilities in existence on November 19, 1980 were required to submit a preliminary permit application to the EPA, the so-called Part A Application. By virtue of this filing, a facility obtained interim status, allowing it to operate until licensing proceedings are instituted pursuant to more comprehensive and exacting regulations (the Part B permitting process).

RCRA requires that Part B permits contain provisions for required on-site study and cleanup activities, known as "corrective action," including detailed compliance schedules and provisions for assurance of financial responsibility.

The Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act of 1980.  The Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act of 1980, (“CERCLA”), also known as “Superfund”, was enacted by Congress in December of 1980. CERCLA imposed a tax on the chemical and petroleum industries and gave the EPA the funds and the authority to respond directly to releases of hazardous substances that could endanger public health or the environment. During the ensuing five year period, $1.6 billion was collected and the money was placed into a trust fund for cleaning up abandoned or uncontrolled hazardous waste sites. CERCLA designates those persons responsible for releases of hazardous waste at the sites, generators and facility owners and operators, as strictly, jointly and severally liable for environmental cleanup costs. CERCLA was amended in 1986 to create the Superfund Amendments and Reauthorization Act (SARA). SARA stresses the importance of innovative technology and permanent remedies in cleaning up hazardous waste sites, increased state involvement, encouraged greater citizen participation, and increased the size of the trust fund to $8.5 billion.

The Superfund Act.  The Superfund Act is the primary federal statute regulating the cleanup of inactive hazardous substance sites and imposing liability for cleanup on the responsible parties. It also provides for immediate response and removal actions coordinated by the EPA to releases of hazardous substances into the environment, and authorize the government to respond to the release or threatened release of hazardous substances or to order responsible persons to perform any necessary cleanup. The statute provides for strict, and in certain cases, joint and several liabilities for these responses and other related costs, and for liability with the cost of damages to natural resources, to the parties involved in the generation, transportation and disposal of such hazardous substances.

The Clean Air Act.  The Clean Air Act was passed by Congress to control the emissions of pollutants into the air and requires permits to be obtained for certain sources of toxic air pollutants such as vinyl chloride, or criteria pollutants, such as carbon monoxide. In 1990, Congress amended the Clean Air Act to require further reductions of air pollutants with specific targets for non-attainment areas in order to meet certain ambient air quality standards. These amendments also require the EPA to promulgate regulations, which (i) control emissions of 189 hazardous air pollutants; (ii) create uniform operating permits for major industrial facilities similar to RCRA operating permits; (iii) mandate the phase-out of ozone depleting chemicals; and (iv) provide for enhanced enforcement.

The Clean Air Act requires the EPA, working with the states, to develop and implement regulations, which result in the reduction of volatile organic compound ("VOC") emissions and emissions of nitrogen oxides ("NOx") in order to meet certain ozone air quality standards specified by the Clean Air Act.

The Interim Standards of the Hazardous Waste Combustor Maximum Achievable Control Technology (the "HWC MACT") rule of certain Clean Air Act Amendments were promulgated on February 13, 2002. This rule established new emission limits and operational controls on all new and existing incinerators, cement kilns, industrial boilers and light-weight aggregate kilns that burn hazardous waste-derived fuel.

Other Federal Laws.  In addition to regulations specifically directed at the transportation, storage, and disposal facilities, there are a number of regulations that may "pass-through" to the facilities based on the acceptance of regulated waste from affected client facilities. Each facility that accepts affected waste must comply with the regulations for that waste, facility or industry. Examples of this type of regulation are National Emission Standards for Benzene Waste Operations and National Emissions Standards for Pharmaceuticals Production. Each of our facilities addresses these regulations on a case-by-case basis determined by its ability to comply with the pass-through regulations.

In our transportation operations, we are regulated by the U.S. Department of Transportation, the Federal Railroad Administration, the Federal Aviation Administration and the U.S. Coast Guard, as well as by the regulatory agencies of each state in which we operate or through which our vehicles pass.   Health and safety standards under the Occupational Safety and Health Act, or OSHA, are applicable to all of our operations. This includes both the Technical Services and Site Services operations.

State and Local Regulations

Pursuant to the EPA's authorization of its RCRA equivalent programs, a number of states have regulatory programs governing the operations and permitting of hazardous waste facilities. Accordingly, the hazardous waste treatment, storage and disposal activities of a number of our facilities are regulated by the relevant state agencies in addition to federal EPA regulation.

Some states may classify as hazardous certain wastes that are not regulated under RCRA. For example, California considers used oil as "hazardous wastes" while RCRA does not. Accordingly, we must comply with state requirements for handling state regulated wastes, and, when necessary, obtain state licenses for treating, storing, and disposing of such wastes at our facilities.

We believe that each of our facilities is in substantial compliance with the applicable requirements of federal and state laws, the regulations there under and the licenses which we have obtained pursuant thereto. Once issued, such licenses have maximum fixed terms of a given number of years, which differ from state to state, ranging from one year to ten years. The issuing state agency may review or modify a license at any time during its term. We anticipate that once a license is issued with respect to a facility, the license will be renewed at the end of its term if the facility's operations are in compliance with applicable requirements. However, there can be no assurance that regulations governing future licensing will remain static, or that we will be able to comply with such requirements.

Our facilities are regulated pursuant to state statutes, including those addressing clean water, clean air, and local sewer discharge. Our facilities are also subject to local sitting, zoning and land use restrictions. Although our facilities could be cited for regulatory violations, we believe we are in substantial compliance with all federal, state and local laws regulating our business.

Industry

The environmental services sector includes the following range of services:

·  
Transportation, Logistics Management, and Collection – specialized handling, packaging, transportation and disposal of industrial waste, laboratory quantities of hazardous chemicals, household hazardous wastes, and pesticides;

18

 
·  
Incineration – the preferred method for treatment of organic hazardous waste because it effectively destroys the contaminants;

·  
Landfill Disposal – used primarily for the disposal of inorganic wastes;

·  
Physical Waste Treatment – used to reduce the volume or toxicity of waste to make it suitable for further treatment, reuse, or disposal;

·  
Reuse/Recycle and Fuels Blending – removes impurities to restore suitability for an intended purpose and to reduce the volume of waste;

·  
Wastewater Treatment – separates wastes including industrial liquid wastes containing heavy metals, organics and suspended solids through physical and chemical treatment so that the treated water can be discharged to local sewer systems under permits;

·  
Remediation and Site Services – includes the maintenance of industrial facilities and equipment such as recurring cleaning in order to continue operations, maintain and improve operating efficiencies, and satisfy safety requirements; the planned cleanup of hazardous wastes sites and the cleanup of accidental spills and discharges, such as those resulting from transportation accidents; and the cleanup and restoration of buildings, equipment, and other sites and facilities that have been contaminated.

For many years, most chemical wastes generated in the United States by industrial processes have been handled on-site at the generators’ facilities. Over the past 30 years, increased public awareness of the harmful effects of unregulated disposal of hazardous wastes on the environment and health has led to federal, state and local regulation of waste management activities. Environmental laws and regulations impose stringent standards for the management of hazardous wastes and provide penalties for violators. Based on these laws and regulations, waste generators and others are subject to continuing liability for past disposal and environmental degradation. As a result of (1) the increased liability exposure associated with chemical waste management activities, (2) a corresponding decrease in the availability of insurance and significant cost increases in administering compliance, and (3) the need for facility capital improvements, many generators of hazardous wastes have found it uneconomical to maintain their own treatment and disposal facilities or to develop and maintain their own technical expertise necessary to assure regulatory compliance. Accordingly, many generators have sought to have their hazardous wastes managed by firms that possess or have access to the appropriate treatment and disposal facilities, as well as the expertise and financial resources necessary to attain and maintain compliance with applicable environmental regulatory requirements.

At the same time, governmental regulation has resulted in a reduction of the number of facilities available for hazardous waste treatment, storage, or disposal. Many facilities have been unable to meet the strict standards imposed by the environmental laws and regulations. It is in this market we are offering the marketplace a new approach to environmental and waste management issues with targeted, integrated solutions.

Business Operations

Fully Integrated Services

We are a fully integrated environmental service firm structured to provide field services, technical services, transportation, off-site treatment, on-site treatment services, and environmental health and safety (“EHS”) compliance services. Through our services, we assist clients in meeting regulatory requirements from the designing stage to the waste disposition stage. We can fully supplant the functions of a client’s EHS department.

We have expanded our services by building upon its foundation of field services. Merely packaging hazardous waste and transporting that waste to a licensed TSDF represents only a part of the requirements to properly manage generated waste. Prior to generating hazardous waste, hazardous materials are acquired. Clients with hazardous materials above established quantity limits are required to submit hazardous material contingency plans, establish a hazard communication program and adhere to other requirements. Our online EHS compliance program is designed to assist the client in not only meeting pre-generation of hazardous waste requirements but also post-hazardous waste generation requirements, such as the development of a myriad of agency reports, tracking and record keeping requirements.

The most basic service performed by the EHS compliance program is providing the client with waste and permit tracking system. The data retrieved from uniform hazardous waste manifests and waste profiles are used to produce required state and Federal agency reports as well as operational management reports for the waste generator.

Field Services

Our field services consist primarily of handling, packaging, and transporting a wide variety of liquid and solid wastes of varying amounts. We provide the fully trained labor and materials to properly package hazardous and non-hazardous waste according to requirements of the Environmental Protection Agency and the Department of Transportation. Small quantities of laboratory chemicals are segregated according to hazard class and packaged into appropriate containers or drums. This technique is known as lab-pack. Packaged waste is profiled for acceptance at a client’s selected treatment, storage and disposal facility (TSDF) and tracked electronically through the proprietary GEMWare software. Once approved by the TSDF, we provide for the transportation of the waste utilizing tractor-trailers or bobtail trucks. We have partnered with a number of TSDFs to provide the client with economic pricing and management options from recycling or recovery to landfill.

Our field staff performs numerous services, including but not limited to:
 
20


·  
managing waste streams and chemicals;
·  
supervising and managing the handling, paperwork, tracking, and transportation of waste streams and chemicals on a client’s location;
·  
labeling, collecting, and transporting containerized wastes;
·  
bulk waste pick ups and transportation;
·  
emergency response to spill incidents;
·  
industrial cleaning of equipment or processes, tank cleaning;
·  
parts washer fluid removal and replenishment;
·  
chemical process dismantling;
·  
mobile waste water treatment; and
·  
mobile degassing and vapor control services.

Our field staff is experienced and trained to accomplish a myriad of industrial cleaning tasks involving hazardous materials and/or wastes.

Further, we are a licensed hazardous waste and medical waste hauler with a fleet consisting of vacuum trucks, tractor-trailers, bobtails, roll-off trailers, roll-off bins, emergency response units, and pick-up trucks. We are a party to numerous Department of Transportation exemptions that authorizes the transportation in commerce of certain hazardous materials in lab-packs, certain hazard classes in the same transport vehicle, and aerosol cans in strong outer packages. We have shipped a variety of hazardous waste chemicals from water with residual oil to concentrated solutions of sulfuric acid.

Technical Services

Compliance services provided through our Technical Services Division are the foundation for all of our integrated environmental solutions. The proprietary GEMWare application software enables waste generators and GEM to profile, track, and routinely process all compliance reporting requirements with various regulatory agencies. The EHS coordinator program can serve clients with staff to perform functions at the client’s facility such as inspections, permit acquisitions, environmental technical support, hazardous materials management, hazardous waste management, compliance policies, chemical inventory, product evaluation, process evaluation, and emergency preparedness.

The EHS coordinator program is supported by us by conducting the following functions:

·  
enterprise software for worldwide integration of environmental management and tracking requirements;
·  
regulatory/legislative analysis;
·  
development and maintenance of an EHS procedure manual;
·  
participation in regulatory rulemaking process;
·  
maintaining a waste and permit database;
·  
report preparation and submittal of permits;
·  
developing required environmental plans and updates;
·  
regulatory agency interaction;
·  
training and development of client personnel;
·  
research and reduction of regulatory requirements; and
·  
engineering plan review assistance with respect to EHS impacts.

The EHS coordinator is designed to provide the client with a dedicated and reliable environmental resource. The EHS coordinator can be stationed at the client’s location. The client’s facility manager will be viewed as our primary client and will be asked to take part in completing EHS coordinator performance review and service evaluations.

At the present time, we provide the services discussed in this section but do not, as yet, have EHS coordinators located on site at client facility locations.

Recycle/Reuse Services

Legislation has demanded that an increasing amount of waste be recycled or reused and not sent for disposal. Most waste streams do not fall into categories that allow for such disposition. However, there are chemicals and waste streams that can be managed for the client’s benefit that do not end in a disposal facility. We have innovated this position by providing services that help a client either recycle or send for reuse certain chemicals and waste streams.

Government Services

Government installations must manage their waste as any other entity, but have much stricter requirements on paperwork and tracking of their waste streams. The GEMWare application software allows us to more efficiently provide those tracking requirements on government contracts. The Company currently is performing on multiple government contracts and plans to enlarge the government services division. These contracts provide a recurring revenue stream for multiple years. We have technically proficient personnel who manage the business on government installations under high security clearances.
 
21


Treatment Services

Treatment is the final step for managing waste. With the addition of the Rancho Cordova Facility, we are in a position to internalize our customers’ waste which enables us to offer more efficient and cost-effective recycling/disposal options while enhancing our corporate profitability.

Marketing

Strategic

The integrated solution we provide offers a strategic platform to market and sell our products and services. The full scope of paperwork, documentation, tracking, handling, managing, transporting, treatment, and disposal of waste is an enormous task for any company. We are a single source to meet all of the environmental needs of a client, thereby providing a strategic and highly advantageous marketing opportunity.

We will use our application software delivering EHS compliance solutions as our initial approach for acquiring clients. These solutions are needed globally and provide the greatest opportunity for sales as they meet the needs of the broadest cross section of clients and at a relatively low entry cost for the client.

Sales & Marketing

Once clients are in our system we will employ both push and pull marketing. EHS compliance clients will be referred or pushed to our field services where the hands on work is done for everyone with waste or materials that need our products and services. Field service personnel will also mine the EHS pool of clients and pull through clients from the client list once they are in our internal system. Field services provide the next step in the process for clients in managing, handling and transporting their waste. The Company will transport waste to the appropriate disposal facility, with the Company continuing the full range of services to manage the waste for its clients.

On-site treatment will provide certain clients treatment options at their location. These customers desire to lower their ongoing treatment costs, but add a higher margin for the Company than off-site waste management. These opportunities also provide long-term maintenance contracts for recurring revenue.

International business and Brownfield development offer the potential for high margin business because of our core competencies.

All marketing efforts will be a combination of several functions. First, we will employ targeted direct mail, followed up with telephone contact. Finally, we will set appointments with our existing clients to increase the business we currently provide for them and with potential clients to sell them our integrated service and management.

We can target clients with specific waste streams that we’re interested in through databases available to us. These databases can be defined by waste generated, location of generator, transporter of the waste, waste received at TSDFs, and the EPA number of a potential client.

The environmental business is dependent on face-to-face selling because of the technical nature of the business. Therefore all marketing efforts will be designed for an appointment to follow up the initial marketing contact.

Customers

Our principal customers are utility, chemical, petroleum, petrochemical, pharmaceutical, transportation and industrial firms, educational institutions, other environmental service companies and government agencies. Our sales efforts are directed toward establishing and maintaining relationships with businesses that have ongoing requirements for one or more of our services. A majority of our revenues are derived from previously served customers with recurring needs for our services. For the fiscal years ended December 31, 2006 and 2005, no single customer accounted for more than 22 % of our revenues.  For the nine months ended September 30, 2007, no single customer accounted for more than 22% of our revenues. We believe the loss of any single customer would not have a material adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operations.

Competition

The hazardous and industrial waste management industry, in which we compete, is highly competitive. The sources of competition vary by locality and by type of service rendered, with competition coming from the other major waste services companies and hundreds of privately owned firms that offer waste services. We compete against national companies, including Philip Services Corp., Waste Management, Inc. and Clean Harbors, Inc. We also compete against regional waste management companies and numerous small companies. Each of these competitors is able to provide one or more of the environmental services offered by us. In addition, we compete with many firms engaged in the transportation, brokerage and disposal of hazardous wastes through recycling, waste-derived fuels programs, thermal treatment or landfill. The principal methods of competition for all our services are price, quality, reliability of service rendered and technical proficiency in handling industrial and hazardous wastes properly. We believe that we offer a more comprehensive range of environmental services than our competitors in major portions of our service territory and that our ability to provide comprehensive services supported by unique information technologies capable of managing the customers' overall environmental program constitutes a significant competitive advantage. Local entrepreneurial approach keeps GEM in touch with customer needs.

Treatment and disposal operations are conducted by a number of national and regional environmental services firms. We believe that our ability to collect and transport waste products efficiently, quality of service, safety, and pricing are the most significant factors in the market for treatment and disposal services.

For our site services and onsite services, competitors include several major national and regional environmental services firms, as well as numerous smaller local firms. We believe that availability of skilled technical professional personnel, quality of performance, diversity of services and price are the key competitive factors in this service industry.

In the United States, the original generators of hazardous waste remain liable under federal and state environmental laws for improper disposal of such wastes. Even if waste generators employ companies that have proper permits and licenses, knowledgeable customers are interested in the reputation and financial strength of the companies they use for management of their hazardous wastes. We believe that our technical proficiency and reputation are important considerations to our customers in selecting and continuing to utilize our services.

Insurance and Financial Assurance

Our insurance programs cover the potential risks associated with our multifaceted operations from two primary exposures: direct physical damage and third party liability. Our insurance programs are subject to customary exclusions.

We maintain a casualty insurance program providing coverage for Automobile coverage, and commercial general liability in the amount of $21,000,000 per occurrence, $21,000,000 aggregate per year, subject to a $2,500 per occurrence deductible.

As part of this Liability program, Pollution Liability and Professional Liability insurance coverage’s are included to protect GEM for potential risks in three areas: as a contractor performing services at customer sites, as a transporter of waste and for waste processing at our facilities. This coverage is also maintained at a $21,000,000 per occurrence, $21,000,000 aggregate limit, covering third party bodily injury, property damage, remedial activities and associated liabilities for all operations performed by or on behalf of the company.

We also maintain Workers' Compensation insurance whose limits are established by state statutes; with Employers Liability coverage subject to a $21,000,000 limit per accident.

Auto Liability insurance written by a member of the AIG Group which covers third structure party bodily injury, property damage while also including pollution liability coverage for waste in-transit exposures with combined single limit (i.e. bodily injury and property damage) of $1,000,000 on a “per accident” basis. This is subject to, an additional limit of coverage of $20,000,000, as provided by a commercial Umbrella policy.

Federal and state regulations require liability insurance coverage for all facilities that treat, store or dispose of hazardous waste. RCRA and the Toxic Substances Control Act and comparable state hazardous waste regulations typically require hazardous waste handling facilities to maintain pollution liability insurance in the amount of $1,000,000 per occurrence and $2,000,000 in the aggregate for both gradual and sudden occurrences. We have a policy from American International Specialty Lines Insurance Company (AIG) insuring our treatment, storage and disposal activities that meets the regulatory requirements.

Under our insurance programs, coverage is obtained for catastrophic exposures, as well as those risks required to be insured by law or contract. It is our policy to retain a significant portion of certain expected losses related primarily to employee benefit, workers' compensation, commercial general and vehicle liability. Provisions for losses expected under these programs are recorded based upon our estimates of the aggregate liability for claims. We believe that policy cancellation terms are similar to those of other companies in other industries.

Employees

As of September 30, 2007, we had 133 full-time employees. Of these employees, 17 were engaged in sales and marketing, 89 were engaged in professional services/project management and 27 were engaged in finance and administration. None of our employees is represented by a labor union or a collective bargaining agreement. We have not experienced any work stoppages and consider our relations with our employees to be good.

Overview

Ultronics Corporation (Ultronics) was a non-operating company formed for the purpose of evaluating opportunities to acquire an operating company.  On February 14, 2005 Ultronics acquired General Environmental Management, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“GEM.DE”) through a reverse merger between Ultronics Acquisition Corp., a wholly owned subsidiary of Ultronics and GEM.DE, whereby GEM.DE was the surviving entity.

The acquisition was accounted for as a reverse merger (recapitalization) with GEM.DE deemed to be the accounting acquirer, and Ultronics Corporation the legal acquirer.  Accordingly, the historical financial information presented in the financial statements is that of GEM.DE as adjusted to give effect to any difference in the par value of the issuer’s and the accounting acquirer stock with an offset to capital in excess of par value.  The basis of the assets, liabilities and retained earnings of GEM.DE, the accounting acquirer, have been carried over in the recapitalization.  Subsequent to the acquisition, the Company changed its name to General Environmental Management, Inc. (“GEM”).

GEM is a fully integrated environmental service firm structured to provide environmental health & safety compliance services, field services, transportation, off-site treatment, and on-site treatment services.  Through its services GEM assists clients in meeting regulatory requirements for the disposal of hazardous and non-hazardous waste.  GEM provides its clients with access to GEMWare, an internet based software program that allows clients to maintain oversight of their waste from the time it leaves their physical control until final disposition by recycling, destruction, or landfill.  The GEM business model is to grow both internally and through acquisitions.

During 2003 and 2004 GEM.DE acquired the assets of Envectra, Inc., Prime Environmental Services, Inc. (Prime) and 100% of the membership interest in Pollution Control Industries of California, LLC, now named General Environmental Management of Rancho Cordova, LLC.  The assets of Envectra, Inc. included an internet based integrated environmental management software now marketed by the Company as GEMWare.  The acquisition of the assets of Prime resulted in a significant increase in the revenue stream of the company and a presence in the Washington State and Alaska markets through Prime’s Seattle office.  All Prime services are now offered under the GEM name.  The primary asset of Pollution Control Industries of California, LLC was a fully permitted Part B Treatment Storage Disposal Facility (TSDF) in Rancho Cordova, California.  The facility provides waste management services to field service companies and allows the Company to bulk and consolidate waste into larger more cost effective containers for outbound disposal.

During 2006, the Company entered into a stock purchase agreement with K2M Mobile Treatment Services, Inc. of Long Beach, California ("K2M"), a privately held company, pursuant to which the Company acquired all of the issued and outstanding common stock of K2M. K2M is a California-based provider of mobile wastewater treatment and vapor recovery services. Subsequent to the acquisition in March 2006, the Company opened a vapor recovery service division in Houston, Texas and will be looking to expand its operations in the Gulf coast area.

Plan of Operation

The Company’s plan over the next twelve months is to continue to grow the business internally, make acquisitions that add profitability to the current structure and solicit debt and equity capital to fund acquisitions and fund the current working capital deficit.  The Company intends to continue its aggressive cost containment process at all levels of the business and bring additional cost efficiencies to new businesses acquired.

On March 3, 2006, we entered into a series of agreements with Laurus Master Funds, Ltd.  The transaction included a $2.0 million secured convertible term note and a non-convertible revolving note up to $5.0 million.  The $2.0 million note was used to fund the Company’s first acquisition of 2006.  The $5.0 million revolving note facility replaced a former $2.0 million borrowing arrangement with a factor (See MD&A - Liquidity).  The revolving note is based primarily on receivables and availability will fluctuate based on sales.  The initial borrowing on this revolving note was approximately $2.0 million, paying off the former factor arrangement and providing additional working capital for the Company.

On October 31, 2007, we entered into a series of agreements with Laurus, Valens US and Valens, whereby

§  
we issued to Valens US and Valens (i) secured convertible term notes ("October Notes") in the principal amount of $1.20 million, secured by all of our assets,

§  
principal payments on the remaining balance of the Note and the October Notes was set at a total of $ 60,606.06 with the first payment, along with accrued interest to be made on March 1, 2008. Of the monthly principal payments, $30,303.03 will be applied to the Note and $30,303.03 will be applied to the October Notes.

§  
the Conversion Price of the Note and October Notes and accrued interest was set at $2.78 per share, subject to adjustment,

§  
GEM Mobile Treatment Services, Inc. was added as a party to the Note and Revolving Note, and all of the outstanding issued and outstanding capital stock of GEM Mobile Treatment Services, Inc. was pledged as collateral for the repayment of the Note and October Notes, and

§  
We issued warrants (“October Warrants”) to Valens and Valens US to purchase up to 992,727 shares of our common stock, with 661,818 October Warrants exercisable at a price of $1.38 per share, and  330,909 October Warrants exercisable at a price of $2.75 per share. The October Warrants expire on October 31, 2014.
 
The principal amount of the Note and October Notes carries an interest rate of prime plus three and one half percent, subject to adjustment.  The Note and October Notes are secured by all of our assets and the assets of our subsidiaries, Gem Delaware and its subsidiary, Gem CA, and GMT, and by a pledge of our stock in Gem Delaware, Gem CA, and GMT.

The principal amount of the Note and accrued interest thereon is convertible into shares of our common stock at a price of $2.78 per share, subject to anti-dilution adjustments. Under the terms of the Note and the October Notes, the monthly principal payment amount of approximately $60,606, plus the monthly interest payment (together, the "Monthly Payment"), is payable in either cash or, if certain criteria are met, including the effectiveness of a current registration statement covering the shares of our common stock into which the Note and October Note are convertible, through the issuance of our common stock. Laurus, Valens US and Valens have the option to convert the entire principal amount of the Note and October Notes, together with interest thereon, into shares of our common stock, provided that such conversion does not result in Laurus, Valens, and Valens US beneficially owning more that 9.99% of our outstanding shares of common stock. We have agreed to register all of the shares that are issuable upon conversion of the Note or exercise of the October Warrants.
 
The total remaining balance of the Note at October 31, 2007 was $969,696.98.   In conjunction with the October transaction, $569,603.55 or 58.7% of this balance was assigned to Valens, $388,232.53 or 40.0% of this balance was assigned to Valens US and $11,676.56 or 1.22% remained with Laurus Master Fund.
 
On March 10, 2006, the Company completed the acquisition of K2M Mobile Treatment Services, a mobile waste water treatment and degassing operation.  This company has a record of profitability and is expected to reduce the Company’s current deficits.  Part of the proceeds of the $2.0 million term note was used to fund this acquisition.

The Company is continuing to evaluate other potential acquisitions and expand its current operations.  For the Company’s Washington operation, we have moved into a larger leased facility in Kent, WA using incentive funds obtained from the Port of Seattle.  In our Northern California operation, we have moved into a larger leased facility in Benicia, CA which is closer to our main customer base.  That Northern California operation formerly operated out of our Rancho Cordova TSDF facility. We do not have any significant plans for any internally funded research and development efforts but continue to pursue innovative and cost effective solutions to process and handle hazardous waste.  Along with our continued acquisition strategy, we expect to acquire additional capital assets.  We are also in the planning stages of designing and contracting for the development of additional equipment related to our water treatment and degassing operations.  We expect the number of employees in our Company to increase in the coming year due to the proposed acquisition strategy and the additional requirements related to public and financial reporting.

Cost of Revenues

Cost of revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 were $17,023,247 or 79.5 % of revenue, as compared to $11,316,559 or 75.3 % of revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2006. The cost of revenue includes disposal costs, transportation, outside labor and operating supplies. The change in the cost of revenue in comparison to the prior year is primarily due to lower margins on Enviroconstruction projects.

Operating Expenses

Operating expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 were $10,782,081 or 50% of revenue as compared to $ 6,532,789 or 43% of revenue for the same period in 2006.  Operating expenses include sales and administrative salaries and benefits, insurance, rent, legal and accounting and other professional fees. The first quarter included a non-cash charge for consulting and advisory fees of $2,294,104 originating from the issuance of common stock and warrants.  Also during the first quarter, the Company created the 2007 Stock Option plan (see Note 9).  In accordance with SFAS 123, the fair value of vested options are charged to expense during the period vested.  For the nine months ended September 30, 2007 the value of options vested during the period was $758,291.

Depreciation and Amortization

Depreciation and amortization expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 were $559,525 or 2.6% of revenue, as compared to $471,168 or 3.1% of revenue for the same period in 2006. The increase in expenses is related to the increase in property, plant and equipment and increased amortization expense related to intangibles acquired from recent acquisitions.

Interest and financing costs

Interest and financing costs for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 were $1,815,131 or 8.4% of revenue, as compared to $ 3,174,233 or 21% of revenue for the same period in 2006.  Interest expense consists of interest on the line of credit, short and long term borrowings, and advances to related parties.  It also includes amortization of deferred finance fees and amortization of valuation discounts generated from beneficial conversion features related to the fair value of warrants and conversion features of long term debt. The decrease in interest expense is due to lower costs of amortization of valuation discounts generated from conversion features of warrants and long term debt in 2007 versus 2006.

Costs to induce conversion of related party debt

During the nine months ended September 30, 2007, the Company converted $3,902,700 of assignable notes to a related party common stock and warrants (see Note 5).  The fair value of the stock and warrants in excess of the note balance converted was a non cash charge to non operating expense for $6,737,413.

Other Non-Operating Income

The Company had other non-operating income for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 of $93,568 or .4% of revenue, and $79,830 or .5% for the same period in 2006. Non-Operating income for the nine months ended 2007 consisted of continuing rental income from the lease of an office building in Rancho Cordova, California and warehouse space in Kent, Washington. The lease in Rancho Cordova terminated in July 2007.

Net Loss

The net loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 was $14,819,205, or 69% of revenue as compared to a loss of $5,908,593, or 39% of revenue for the same period in 2006. The loss is primarily attributable to a non-cash charge for consulting and advisory fees of $2,136,620 originating from the issuance of common stock and warrants; a non-cash charge of $758,291 related to the term value of options vested, $1,815,131 related to interest and financing fees and non-cash charges of $6,737,413 related to costs to induce conversion of debt. The Net Loss applicable to common stock holders for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 was $14,819,205 and for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 was $7,408,004.  The 2006 loss included preferred stock dividends, term modifications on Series A preferred stock and beneficial conversion features on Series B preferred stock.

Year Ended December 31, 2006 as Compared to the Year Ended December 31, 2005

Revenues

Total revenues were $21,760,569 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2006, representing an increase of $3,424,616 or 19% compared to the twelve months ended December 31, 2005.  The increase in revenue can be attributed to internal growth and the revenue associated with the acquisition of K2M Mobile Treatment Services.  The Company was successful in offsetting any accounts lost subsequent to the acquisitions in mid 2005 with internal growth in sales.
 
26


Cost of Revenues

Cost of revenues for the year ended December 31, 2006 were $16,761,057 or 77% of revenue, as compared to $15,104,537 or 82% of revenue for the year ended December 31, 2005. The cost of revenues includes disposal cost, transportation, outside labor and operating supplies. The change in the cost of revenue in comparison to prior years is due to increased volume.  The improvement of the ratio of the cost of revenue to sales over the same periods for the prior year resulted from higher margin business related to the K2M acquisition and from reduced disposal costs related to the economies of scale achieved by bulking waste for disposal at the Company’s TSDF in Rancho Cordova, California.

Operating Expenses

Operating expenses for the twelve months ended December 31, 2006 were $9,578,895 or 44% of revenue as compared to $7,544,456 or 41% of revenue for the same period in 2005. Operating expenses include sales and administrative salaries and benefits, insurance, rent, legal and accounting and other professional fees. The increase in expenses over the prior periods is attributable to increased staff from the acquisitions made in 2006 as well as additional staff hired in anticipation of the Company’s expansion in the Western region. The Company has incurred higher rent expense from the addition of the facilities utilized by K2M, higher liability insurance because of the increase in sales and additional costs incurred in the abandoned 2006 acquisition of Pollution Control Industries. The increase in the cost as a percentage of revenue resulted primarily from the inclusion of costs related to the unsuccessful acquisition.

Depreciation and Amortization

Depreciation and amortization expenses for the twelve months ended December 31, 2006 were $524,187 or 2.4% of revenue, as compared to $251,527, or 1.4% of revenue for the same period in 2005. The increase in expenses is related to the increase in property, plant and equipment from the acquisitions made in 2006.

Interest Expense

Interest expense for the year ended December 31, 2006 was $8,861,700, or 40.7% of revenue, as compared to $746,108 or 4.1% of revenue for the same period in 2005.  For 2006, interest expense on financings and debt was $903,753, interest expense on debt related to the abandoned acquisition was $38,962 and interest expense related to valuation discounts was $7,918,985.  The interest expense related to valuation discounts includes the amortization of deferred finance fees related to secured financing agreements, amortization of valuation discounts related to the secured financing, amortization of the valuation discount related to convertible notes, the amortization of valuation discounts created from warrants issued to finders and advisors on the May Convertible notes, and the cost of additional shares issued to the May Convertible Note holders reflecting a change in the conversion price approved by the Board of Directors.

Other Non-operating Income

The Company had other non-operating income for the year ended December 31, 2006 of $105,968, or .5% of revenue, as compared to $154,792 or .8% of revenue for the same period in 2005.  Non-Operating income for the twelve months consisted of continuing rental income from the lease of an office building in Rancho Cordova, California. Other Non-operating income for 2005 also included a one-time benefit from a legal settlement of approximately $53,000.

 Costs of Abandoned Acquisition

On August 15, 2006, the Company entered into a definitive agreement to acquire Pollution Control Industries (PCI), a Delaware corporation, and Thunderbird, LLC, an Illinois limited liability company, for approximately $35 million.  As a condition to acquiring PCI, the Company was required to raise a certain amount of capital.  As part of financing this transaction, the Company obtained a new credit facility from Laurus in the amount of approximately $25 million, which amount was specifically deposited into escrow for this transaction.  The Company was unable to raise sufficient capital; therefore, the transaction was not consummated.  

In connection with this transaction, the Company incurred approximately $4.6 million in costs related to the expired acquisition, consisting of break-up fees of $2,375,000 payable to the stockholders of PCI, $1,190,000 in  financing costs to Laurus for the new credit facility, and legal and advisory fees

Net Loss

The net loss for the twelve months ended December 31, 2006 was $17,965,074, or 82.6% of revenue as compared to a loss of $4,890,228, or 26.7% of revenue for the same period in 2005.  The higher loss is attributable to the loss from operations, interest expense related to the May Convertible notes and the costs of the abandoned acquisition.
 
27


Net Loss Applicable to Common Shareholders

The net loss attributable to common shareholders includes dividends on preferred stock and beneficial conversion features on preferred stock.  For the year ended 2005, the Company recorded a $157,414 beneficial conversion feature on Series A preferred stock.  For 2006, the Company recorded preferred stock dividends of $21,871, dividends on preferred stock related to the modification of conversion terms for $1,063,600 and a beneficial conversion feature of $955,040 on the Series B preferred stock.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash

Our primary sources of liquidity are cash provided by operating, investing, and financing activities.  Net cash used in operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 was $3,815,017 as compared to $3,636,309 for the same period in 2006.

Liquidity

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the company will continue as a going concern.  The Company incurred a net loss of $14,819,205 and utilized cash in operating activities of $3,815,017 during the nine months ended September 30, 2007.  As of September 30, 2007 the Company had current liabilities exceeding current assets by $1,244,825. These matters raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

Management is continuing to raise capital through the issuance of debt and equity and believes it will be able to raise sufficient capital over the next twelve months to finance operations. In addition, management believes that the company will begin to operate profitably due to improved operational results, cost cutting practices, and the completion of the integration of acquisitions.  However, there can be no assurances that the Company will be successful in this regard or will be able to eliminate operating losses.  The accompanying financial statements do not contain any adjustments which may be required as a result of this uncertainty.

The Company’s capital requirements consist of general working capital needs, scheduled principal and interest payments on debt, obligations, and capital expenditures.  The Company’s capital resources consist primarily of cash generated from operations and proceeds from issuances of debt and common stock.  The Company’s capital resources are impacted by changes in accounts receivable as a result of revenue fluctuations, economic trends and collection activities.

On October 31, 2007, General Environmental Management, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a series of agreements with Laurus Master Fund, Ltd. ("Laurus"), LV Administrative Services, Inc. (“LV Admin”), Valens U.S. SPV I, LLC (“Valens US”) and Valens Offshore SPV II, Corp. (“Valens”), each dated as of October 31, 2007, whereby we issued to Valens US and Valens (i) secured convertible term notes ("Notes") in the principal amount of $1.245 million;  (ii) an amendment to modify the amortization of the remaining balance of the Laurus February 28, 2006 Secured Convertible Term Note; (iii) warrants  to Valens US to purchase up to 344,145 shares of our common stock at a price of $1.38 per share and up to 172,013 shares of our common stock at a price of $2.75 per share, (iv) warrants  to Valens to purchase up to 317,673 shares of our common stock at a price of $1.38 per share and up to 158,836 shares of our common stock at a price of $2.75 per share. Of the Note proceeds, $64,751 was paid to Firestone Associates, Inc. and $64,751 was paid to Firestone Environmental Services, Inc. as repayment in full of the outstanding indebtedness then owing by the Company.  The Company also agreed to pay, out of the Loan proceeds, the sum of $45,000 to Valens US, Valens and Valens Capital Management, LLC, and the sum of $72,209 to various legal firms as reimbursement for its due diligence and legal fees and expenses incurred in connection with the transaction.
 
The total remaining balance of the February 28, 2006 secured convertible term note at October 31, 2007 was $969,696.98.   In conjunction with this transaction, $569,603.55 or 58.7% of this balance was assigned to Valens, $388,232.53 or 40.0% of this balance was assigned to Valens US and $11,676.56 or 1.22% remained with Laurus Master Fund.
 
The principal amount of the Note carries an interest rate of prime plus three and one half percent, subject to adjustment, and such interest is payable monthly.  The Company must also make monthly principal payments in the amount of $60,606.06, commencing March 1, 2008. Of the monthly principal payments, $30,303.03 will be applied to the February 28, 2006 Secured Convertible Term Note and $30,303.03 will be applied to the Notes.

Operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 used $3,815,017 in cash.  Accounts receivable, net of allowances for bad debts, increased by $1,558,205 as of September 30, 2007 and accounts payable were increased by $588,954.  Depreciation and amortization for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 totaled $559,525. The net loss of $14,819,205 included a number of non-cash expenses incurred by the Company through the issuance of common stock and the issuance of warrants to purchase common stock (see Note 8 to the Financial Statements).  These items included $758,291 which represents the fair value of vested options on the 2005 and the 2007 stock option plans, $612,405 representing discount amortization on convertible debt, $187,314 representing amortization of deferred financing fees, $2,136,620 representing the value of warrants and common shares issued for consulting and advisory services and $6,737,413 resulting from the conversion of notes to common stock and warrants. Other non-cash expenses totaled $368,820. Prepaid expenses used $143,016 in cash for the payment of insurance premiums that will be amortized in 2007.  Accrued expenses increased by $756,067.

The Company used cash for investment in plant, property and equipment and deposits totaling $932,297 for the nine months ended September 30, 2007.  Deposits increased based on additional collateral due for the expanded permit at our facility in Rancho Cordova, California.  Capital expenditures increased based on the expansion of our transportation assets during the nine   months. The Company raised $4,202,214 from financing activity net of repayments of debt, through the issuance of notes and common stock, execution of capital leases and advances from related parties through the issuance of assignable notes.  These increases were offset by a decrease in the outstanding balance of the Company’s secured Notes.

These activities resulted in a $545,100 reduction in cash balances from year end December 31, 2006 to the end of the quarter September 30, 2007.

Cash Flows for the Year Ended December 31, 2006

Operating activities for the year ended December 31, 2006 used $7,994,796 in cash.  Accounts receivable, net of allowances for bad debts, totaled $5,540,069 as of December 31, 2006 as compared to the December 31, 2005 balance of $5,143,754.  The increase in accounts receivable is directly related to the increase in sales over the same period for 2006 as noted above.  Accounts payable totaled $3,755,264 as of December 31, 2006 as compared to an accounts payable balance of $3,920,923 for December 31, 2005.  The decrease in accounts payable over the prior year was due to the application of additional working capital provided by investors.

The Company used cash for investment in its acquisition of K2M Mobile Treatment Services; in plant, property and equipment; and in deposits for modifications of its permit for its TSDF in Rancho Cordova, California totaling $2,409,867 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2006. The company used $382,012 in cash for investment purposes during the same period in 2005.

The Company raised $10,975,322 cash from financing activities net of repayments of debt, through the issuance of debt, convertible preferred stock and convertible notes.

From May 2006 to August 2006, the Company issued one hundred twenty nine convertible notes totaling $4,753,277. These “May Convertible Notes” were unsecured, carried an interest rate of eight percent (8%) per annum and were due within one year. Each one dollar of principal of the May Convertible Notes was convertible into 25 shares of the Company's Common Stock. On August 31, 2006, the total balance of the convertible notes was converted into 3,168,852 shares of common stock.

During the period September 1, 2006 to December 5, 2006, the Company raised $2,308,170 (net of offering costs of $147,330) through the issuance of 2,455,500 units of Series B convertible preferred stock. Each unit consists of one share of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock convertible into .67 shares of common stock. The proceeds were used to provide working capital funding.

Stockholders’ equity was $146,135 on December 31, 2006. The Company held its annual meeting of stockholders on June 15, 2006 to elect the directors and approve Weinberg & Co. P.A. as the independent certified public accountants of the Company.  The stockholders approved the matters put before them as noted above.

On September 9, 2006, the Company entered into a Settlement Agreement and Release with Jeffrey Marks, a stockholder of the Company.  In consideration for the Settlement Agreement and Release, the Company a) issued and delivered to Mr. Marks a valid and original stock certificate representing 66,000 shares of the Company’s common stock and b) executed and delivered a Subscription Agreement and Questionnaire representing an investment of $25,000 in the Company’s Series B Convertible Preferred Stock.

On November 1, 2005, we entered into an Employment Agreement with John Brunkow, a former director of the Company. Pursuant to the terms of Mr. Brunkow’s employment agreement Mr. Brunkow was engaged by us as “counsel to the CEO” for a term of 25 months commencing on November 1, 2005 and terminating on December 1, 2007. Mr. Brunkow will receive a monthly salary of $2,500 per month.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The preparation of our consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses.  The following are the areas that we believe require the greatest amount of estimates in the preparation of our financial statements: allowances for doubtful accounts, impairment testing and accruals for disposal costs for waste received at our TSDF.

(a) Allowance for doubtful accounts

We establish an allowance for doubtful accounts to provide for accounts receivable that may not be collectible. In establishing the allowance for doubtful accounts, we analyze specific past due accounts and analyze historical trends in bad debts.  In addition, we take into account current economic conditions.  Actual accounts receivable written off in subsequent periods can differ materially from the allowance for doubtful accounts provided.

(b) Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets”, established guidelines regarding when impairment losses on long-lived assets, which include property and equipment, should be recognized and how impairment losses should be measured.  This statement also provides a single accounting model for long-lived assets to be disposed of and significantly changes the criteria that would have to be met to classify an asset as held-for-sale.  The Company periodically reviews, at least annually, such assets for possible impairment and expected losses. If any losses are determined to exist they are recorded in the period when such impairment is determined

(c) Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred or services have been rendered, the price is fixed or determinable, and collection is reasonably assured.

The Company is a fully integrated environmental service firm structured to provide field services, technical services, transportation, off-site treatment, on-site treatment services, and environmental health and safety (“EHS”) compliance services.  Through our services, we assist clients in meeting regulatory requirements from the designing stage to the waste disposition stage. The technicians who provide these services are billed at negotiated rates, or the service is bundled into a service package.  These services are billed and revenue recognized when the service is performed and completed. When the service is billed, expected costs are accumulated and accrued.
 
30


Our field services consist primarily of handling, packaging, and transporting a wide variety of liquid and solid wastes of varying amounts. We provide the fully trained labor and materials to properly package hazardous  and non-hazardous waste according to requirements of the Environmental Protection Agency and the Department of Transportation. Small quantities of laboratory chemicals are segregated according to hazard class and packaged into appropriate containers or drums. Packaged waste is profiled for acceptance at a client’s selected treatment, storage and disposal facility (TSDF) and tracked electronically through our systems. Once approved by the TSDF, we provide for the transportation of the waste utilizing tractor-trailers or bobtail trucks. The time between picking up the waste and transfer to an approved TSDF is usually less than 10 days.  The Company recognizes revenue for waste picked up and received waste at the time pick up or receipt occurs and recognizes the estimated cost of disposal in the same period. For the Company’s TSDF located in Rancho Cordova, CA, costs to dispose of waste materials located at the Company’s facilities are included in accrued disposal costs.  Due to the limited size of the facility, waste is held for only a short time before transfer to a final treatment, disposal or recycling facility. Revenue is recognized on contracts with retainage when services have been rendered and collectability is reasonably assured.

Effective January 1, 2007, the Company adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes (“FIN 48”). —an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes.” The Interpretation addresses the determination of whether tax benefits claimed or expected to be claimed on a tax return should be recorded in the financial statements. Under FIN 48, we may recognize the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefits recognized in the financial statements from such a position should be measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than fifty percent likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. FIN 48 also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties on income taxes, accounting in interim periods and requires increased disclosures. At the date of adoption, and as of September 30, 2007, the Company does not have a liability for unrecognized tax benefits.

The Company files income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and various states. The Company is subject to U.S. federal or state income tax examinations by tax authorities for years after 2002. During the periods open to examination, the Company has net operating loss and tax credit carry forwards for U.S. federal and state tax purposes that have attributes from closed periods. Since these NOLs and tax credit carry forwards may be utilized in future periods, they remain subject to examination. The Company’s policy is to record interest and penalties on uncertain tax provisions as income tax expense. As of September 30, 2007, the Company has no accrued interest or penalties related to uncertain tax positions.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In September 2006, the FASB issued FAS No 157 (FAS 157) ‘Fair Value Measurements’ which establishes a framework for measuring fair value in accordance with GAAP and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. FAS 157 does not require any new fair value measurements but rather eliminates inconsistencies in guidance found in various prior accounting pronouncements. FAS 157 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. The Company is currently evaluating the impact this standard will have on its consolidated financial condition, results of operations, cash flows or disclosures.

In February 2007, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued FASB Statement No. 159, “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities — including an amendment of FASB Statement No. 115” (FAS 159).  FAS 159, which becomes effective for the company on January 1, 2008, permits companies to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value and report unrealized gains and losses in earnings. Such accounting is optional and is generally to be applied instrument by instrument. The Company does not anticipate that election, if any, of this fair-value option will have a material effect on its consolidated financial condition, results of operations, cash flows or disclosures.

In December 2006, the FASB issued a Staff Position (“FSP”) on EITF 00-19-2, “Accounting for Registration Payment Arrangements (“FSP 00-19-2”). This FSP specifies that the contingent obligation to make future payments or otherwise transfer consideration under a registration payment arrangement, whether issued as a separate agreement or included as a provision of a financial instrument or other agreement, should be separately recognized and measured in accordance with SFAS No. 5, “Accounting for Contingencies.” If the transfer of consideration under a registration payment arrangement is probable and can be reasonably estimated at inception, the contingent liability under the registration payment arrangement is included in the allocation of proceeds from the related financing transaction (or recorded subsequent to the inception of a prior financing transaction) using the measurement guidance in SFAS No. 5. This FSP is effective immediately for registration payment arrangements and the financial instruments subject to those arrangements that are entered into or modified subsequent to the issuance of the FSP. For prior arrangements, the FSP is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006 and interim periods within those years. The Company does not believe the adoption of this FSP will have a material impact on its consolidated financial condition, results of operations, cash flows or disclosures.

Long Term Incentive Awards

We did not award options to our executive officers during fiscal 2004 under our incentive plan.

Option Grants in Last Fiscal Year

Prior to acquisition by the Company, General Environmental Management, Inc. of Delaware’s Board of Directors approved and implemented the 2005 Stock Option Plan (the “plan”). The Plan authorized option grants to employees and other persons closely associated with the Company for the purchase of up to 88,117 shares of common stock.  Immediately following the approval of the plan by the Board of Directors, General Environmental Management, Inc. of Delaware granted a total of 56,017 options to 68 employees and two consultants.  The exercise price for the options was $30.00 per share.  General Environmental Management, Inc. of Delaware was not a publicly traded company at the time of the award but the Board determined that $30.00 was the fair market value at that time.  Under the terms of the agreement and plan of merger the options become exercisable into the same number of shares in the Company’s stock.
 
34

 
During 2005, the Company awarded 6,667 options to our Chief Executive Officer and 6,667 options to our Chief Financial Officer at exercise prices of $30.00 and $39.00 respectively.

On April 1, 2005 the Company’s Board of Directors authorized the issuance of 200 options to three employees.  The exercise price for the options was $49.50 per share and was based on the closing market price on the date of issuance.  On July 1, 2005 the Company’s Board of Directors authorized the issuance of 9,434 options to eight employees.  The exercise price for the options was $39.00 per share and was based on the closing market price on the date of issuance.  On October 1, 2005 the Company’s Board of Directors authorized the issuance of 600 options to six employees.  The exercise price for the options was $35.10 per share and was based on the closing market price on the date of issuance.

On April 1, 2006 the Company’s Board of Directors authorized the issuance of 3,334 options to three employees. The exercise price for the options was $25.80 per share and was based on the closing market price on the date of issuance.  On July 1, 2006 the Company’s Board of Directors authorized the issuance of 9,253 options to 24 employees. The exercise price for the options was $6.60 per share and was based on the closing market price on the date of issuance.

On March 28, 2007 the Board of Directors approved and implemented the 2007 Stock Option Plan (the “Plan”).  The plan authorized option grants to employees and other persons closely associated with the Company for the purchase of up to 5,500,000 shares.  The Board of Directors granted a total of 4,397,500 options to 102 employees and one consultant.  The exercise price of the options was $1.19.
 
On October 1, 2007 the Stock Option Committee approved the issuance of 360,000 options to twenty-three employees.  The exercise price for the options was $2.50 per share and was based on the closing market price on the date of issuance.

 Aggregate Option Exercises in Last Fiscal Year and Fiscal Year End Option Values

 There were no option exercises by our executive officers during fiscal 2006.

Limitations on liability and indemnification of officers and directors
 
Our certificate of incorporation includes a provision that eliminates the personal liability of our directors for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, to the fullest extent permitted by Nevada Revised Statutes. Our certificate of incorporation also provides that we must indemnify our directors and officers to the fullest extent permitted by Nevada law and advance expenses to our directors and officers in connection with a legal proceeding to the fullest extent permitted by Nevada law, subject to certain exceptions. We are in the process of obtaining directors’ and officers’ insurance for our directors, officers and some employees for specified liabilities.

The limitation of liability and indemnification provisions in our certificate of incorporation may discourage stockholders from bringing a lawsuit against directors for breach of their fiduciary duty. They may also have the effect of reducing the likelihood of derivative litigation against directors and officers, even though an action of this kind, if successful, might otherwise benefit us and our stockholders. Furthermore, a stockholder’s investment may be adversely affected to the extent we pay the costs of settlement and damage awards against directors and officers pursuant to these indemnification provisions. However, we believe that these indemnification provisions are necessary to attract and retain qualified directors and officers.

SEC Policy on Indemnification

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be  permitted to  directors,  officers  and  controlling  persons of the registrant  pursuant to the foregoing  provisions,  or  otherwise,  we have been advised that in the opinion of the SEC such  indemnification  is against  public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.

SECTION 16(A) BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP REPORTING COMPLIANCE
 
Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, requires that our directors and executive officers and persons who beneficially own more than 10% of our common stock (referred to herein as the “reporting persons”) file with the Securities and Exchange Commission various reports as to their ownership of and activities relating to our common stock. Such reporting persons are required by the SEC regulations to furnish us with copies of all Section 16(a) reports they file. Based solely upon a review of copies of Section 16(a) reports and representations received by us from reporting persons, and without conducting any independent investigation of our own, we believe all Forms 3, 4 and 5 were timely filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission by such reporting persons.

PRINCIPAL STOCKHOLDERS

The Company valued the warrants at $357,750 using a Black - Scholes option pricing model.  For the Black - Scholes calculation, the Company assumed no dividend yield, a risk free interest rate of 4.78 %, expected volatility of 33.17 % and an expected term for the warrants of 7 years. The Company also agreed to modify certain terms of two sets of warrants issued during 2006 including the modification of the exercise price (from $1.20  per share to $ 0.60   per share) and the life of the warrants (from 5.5 years to 6.5 years).  The second set of warrants included the modification of the life of the warrants (from 1.75 years to 6.75 years).  The Company valued the modification of these warrants as $136,082 which was based on the difference of the warrant before and after the modification. For the Black - Scholes calculation, the Company assumed no dividend yield, a risk free interest rate of 4.78 %, expected volatility of 33.17 % and an expected term for the warrants of 6.5 and 6.75 years.  The Company reflected an aggregate charge of $1,091,867 during the three months ended March 31, 2007 relating to these transactions.

On March 31, 2007 General Pacific Partners agreed to convert $220,000 of accrued advisory fees and expenses into 184,874 shares of common stock based upon the existing fair value of the Company’s common stock.   As an inducement to convert, the Company issued GPP seven year warrants to purchase 55,462 shares of the Company’s common stock at $0.60 per share. These warrants were valued at $44,092 using the Black - Scholes valuation model and such cost was recognized as an expense during the three months ended March 31, 2007.  For the Black - Scholes calculation, the Company assumed no dividend yield, a risk free interest rate of 4.78 %, expected volatility of 33.17 % and an expected term for the warrants of 7 years.

As of September 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006, the Company had $33,664 and $270,000 respectively; in amounts payable to GPP for expenses related to advisory services and accrued interest.

General Environmental Management Equity Incentives Plan

Our 2005 Equity Incentive Plan provides for the issuance of incentive and non-qualified stock options, stock appreciation rights and restricted stock to our directors, officers, employees and consultants. At the adoption of this plan, we set aside 88,117 shares of common stock, which may be issued upon the exercise of options granted. As of June 30, 2007, options available for issuance are 28,767.

Our board of directors administers the above plans and our board may amend or terminate the plans if it does not cause any adverse effect on any then outstanding options or unexercised portion thereof. All options generally have an exercise price equal the fair value of the underlying common stock on the date of grant, vest immediately and expire in ten years.

On March 28, 2007 the Board of Directors approved and implemented the 2007 Stock Option Plan (the “Plan”).  The plan authorized option grants to employees and other persons closely associated with the Company for the purchase of up to 5,500,000 shares.  The Board of Directors granted a total of 4,397,500 options to 102 employees and one consultant.  The exercise price of the options was $1.19.

On October 1, 2007 the Stock Option Committee approved the issuance of 360,000 options to twenty-three employees.  The exercise price for the options was $2.50 per share and was based on the closing market price on the date of issuance.

Laurus Convertible Note Financing
   
On March 3, 2006, we entered into a series of agreements with Laurus dated as of February 28, 2006, whereby we issued to Laurus (i) a secured convertible term note ("Note") in the principal amount of $2.0 million; and, (ii) a Secured Non-Convertible Revolving Note of up to $5.0 million (the “Revolving Note”).  In October, 2007, Laurus assigned all but 1.22% of the balance of the Note to Valens U.S. SPV I, LLC (“Valens US”) and Valens Offshore SPV II, Corp. (“Valens”). The Note and Revolving Note are secured by all of our assets.

On October 31, 2007, we entered into a series of agreements with Laurus, Valens US and Valens, whereby

§  
we issued to Valens US and Valens (i) secured convertible term notes ("October Notes") in the principal amount of $1.20 million, secured by all of our assets,

§  
principal payments on the remaining balance of the Note and the October Notes was set at a total of $ 60,606.06 with the first payment, along with accrued interest to be made on March 1, 2008. Of the monthly principal payments, $30,303.03 will be applied to the Note and $30,303.03 will be applied to the October Notes.

§  
the Conversion Price of the Note and October Notes and accrued interest was set at $2.78 per share, subject to adjustment,

§  
GEM Mobile Treatment Services, Inc. was added as a party to the Note and Revolving Note, and all of the outstanding issued and outstanding capital stock of GEM Mobile Treatment Services, Inc. was pledged as collateral for the repayment of the Note and October Notes, and

§  
We issued warrants (“October Warrants”) to Valens and Valens US to purchase up to 992,727 shares of our common stock, with 661,818 October Warrants exercisable at a price of $1.38 per share, and  330,909 October Warrants exercisable at a price of $2.75 per share. The October Warrants expire on October 31, 2014.
 
The principal amount of the Note and October Notes carries an interest rate of prime plus three and one half percent, subject to adjustment.  The Note and October Notes are secured by all of our assets and the assets of our subsidiaries, Gem Delaware and its subsidiary, Gem CA, and GMT, and by a pledge of our stock in Gem Delaware, Gem CA, and GMT.
 
39


The principal amount of the Note and accrued interest thereon is convertible into shares of our common stock at a price of $2.78 per share, subject to anti-dilution adjustments. Under the terms of the Note and the October Notes, the monthly principal payment amount of approximately $60,606, plus the monthly interest payment (together, the "Monthly Payment"), is payable in either cash or, if certain criteria are met, including the effectiveness of a current registration statement covering the shares of our common stock into which the Note and October Note are convertible, through the issuance of our common stock. Laurus, Valens US and Valens have the option to convert the entire principal amount of the Note and October Notes, together with interest thereon, into shares of our common stock, provided that such conversion does not result in Laurus, Valens, and Valens US beneficially owning more that 9.99% of our outstanding shares of common stock. We have agreed to register all of the shares that are issuable upon conversion of the Note or exercise of the October Warrants.
 
The total remaining balance of the Note at October 31, 2007 was $969,696.98.   In conjunction with the October transaction, $569,603.55 or 58.7% of this balance was assigned to Valens, $388,232.53 or 40.0% of this balance was assigned to Valens US and $11,676.56 or 1.22% remained with Laurus Master Fund.
 
Anti-takeover actions and/or provision could prevent or delay a change in control.

Provisions of our certificate of incorporation and bylaws and Nevada law may make it more difficult for a third party to acquire us, even if so doing would be beneficial to our stockholders. These include the following:

·  
Our board of directors are authorized to issue up to 100,000,000 shares of preferred stock and to fix the rights, preferences, privileges and restrictions of those shares without any further vote or action by the stockholders, which may be used by the board to create voting impediments or otherwise delay or prevent a change in control or to modify the rights of holders of our common stock; and

·  
Limitations on who may call annual and special meetings of stockholders.

SELLING STOCKHOLDERS

The table below sets forth information concerning the resale of the shares of common stock by the selling stockholders. We will not receive any proceeds from the resale of the common stock by the selling stockholders. We will receive proceeds from the exercise of the warrants. Assuming the selling stockholders sell all the shares registered below, none of the selling stockholders will continue to own any shares of our common stock.

The following table also sets forth the name of each person who is offering the resale of shares of common stock by this prospectus, the number of shares of common stock beneficially owned by each person, the number of shares of common stock that may be sold in this offering and the number of shares of common stock each person will own after the offering, assuming they sell all of the shares offered.

We do not know when or in what amounts the selling stockholder may offer shares for sale.  The selling stockholder may not sell any or all of the shares offered by this prospectus. Because the selling stockholder may offer all or some of the shares pursuant to this offering, and because there are currently no agreements, arrangements or understandings with respect to the sale of any of the  shares,  except for  limitations  on daily  volume of sales by the  selling stockholder  described in "Plan of  Distribution," we cannot estimate the number of shares that will be held by the selling  stockholder  after completion of the offering.  For purposes of this table, however, we have assumed  that,  after completion of the offering,  none of the shares covered by this  prospectus will be held by the selling stockholder.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

The selling stockholders and any of their respective pledgees, donees, assignees and other successors-in-interest may, from time to time, sell any or all of their shares of common stock on any stock exchange, market or trading facility on which the shares are traded or in private transactions. These sales may be at fixed or negotiated prices. The selling stockholders may use any one or more of the following methods when selling shares:

·  
ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker-dealer solicits the purchaser;
·  
block trades in which the broker-dealer will attempt to sell the shares as agent but may position and resell a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction;
·  
purchases by a broker-dealer as principal and resale by the broker-dealer for its account;
·  
an exchange distribution in accordance with the rules of the applicable exchange;
·  
privately-negotiated transactions;
·  
short sales that are not violations of the laws and regulations of any state or the United States;
·  
broker-dealers may agree with the selling stockholders to sell specified number of such shares at a stipulated price per share;
·  
through the writing of options on the shares;
·  
a combination of any such methods of sale; and
·  
any other method permitted pursuant to applicable law.

The selling stockholders may also sell shares under Rule 144 under the Securities Act, if available, rather than under this prospectus. The selling stockholders shall have the sole and absolute discretion not to accept any purchase offer or make any sale of shares if they deem the purchase price to be unsatisfactory at any particular time.

The selling stockholders may pledge their shares to their brokers under the margin provisions of customer agreements. If a selling stockholders defaults on a margin loan, the broker may, from time to time, offer and sell the pledged shares.

The selling stockholders may also engage in short sales against the box, puts and calls and other transactions in our securities or derivatives of our securities and may sell or deliver shares in connection with these trades.

The selling stockholders or their respective pledgees, donees, transferees or other successors in interest, may also sell the shares directly to market makers acting as principals and/or broker-dealers acting as agents for themselves or their customers. Such broker-dealers may receive compensation in the form of discounts, concessions or commissions from the selling stockholders and/or the purchasers of shares for whom such broker-dealers may act as agents or to whom they sell as principal or both, which compensation as to a particular broker-dealer might be in excess of customary commissions. Market makers and block purchasers purchasing the shares will do so for their own account and at their own risk. It is possible that a selling stockholder will attempt to sell shares of common stock in block transactions to market makers or other purchasers at a price per share which may be below the then market price. The selling stockholders cannot assure that all or any of the shares offered in this prospectus will be issued to, or sold by, the selling stockholders. The selling stockholders and any brokers, dealers or agents, upon effecting the sale of any of the shares offered in this prospectus, may be deemed to be "underwriters" as that term is defined under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the rules and regulations under such acts. In such event, any commissions received by such broker-dealers or agents and any profit on the resale of the shares purchased by them may be deemed to be underwriting commissions or discounts under the Securities Act.

We are required to pay all fees and expenses incident to the registration of the shares, including fees and disbursements of counsel to the selling stockholders, but excluding brokerage commissions or underwriter discounts.

The selling stockholders, alternatively, may sell all or any part of the shares offered in this prospectus through an underwriter. No selling stockholder has entered into any agreement with a prospective underwriter and there is no assurance that any such agreement will be entered into.

The selling stockholders and any other persons participating in the sale or distribution of the shares will be subject to applicable provisions of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the rules and regulations under such act, including, without limitation, Regulation M. These provisions may restrict certain activities of, and limit the timing of purchases and sales of any of the shares by, the selling stockholders or any other such person. In the event that the selling stockholders are deemed affiliated purchasers or distribution participants within the meaning of Regulation M, then the selling stockholders will not be permitted to engage in short sales of common stock. Furthermore, under Regulation M, persons engaged in a distribution of securities are prohibited from simultaneously engaging in market making and certain other activities with respect to such securities for a specified period of time prior to the commencement of such distributions, subject to specified exceptions or exemptions. In regards to short sells, the selling stockholder can only cover its short position with the securities they receive from us upon conversion. In addition, if such short sale is deemed to be a stabilizing activity, then the selling stockholder will not be permitted to engage in a short sale of our common stock. All of these limitations may affect the marketability of the shares.

We have agreed to indemnify the selling stockholders, or their transferees or assignees, against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or to contribute to payments the selling stockholders or their respective pledgees, donees, transferees or other successors in interest, may be required to make in respect of such liabilities.

If the selling stockholders notify us that they have a material arrangement with a broker-dealer for the resale of the common stock, then we would be required to amend the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part, and file a prospectus supplement to describe the agreements between the selling stockholders and the broker-dealer.

Penny Stock

The Securities and Exchange Commission has adopted Rule 15g-9 which establishes the definition of a "penny stock," for the purposes relevant to us, as any equity security that has a market price of less than $5.00 per share or with an exercise price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions. For any transaction involving a penny stock, unless exempt, the rules require:

·  
that a broker or dealer approve a person's account for transactions in penny stocks; and

·  
the broker or dealer receive from the investor a written agreement to the transaction, setting forth the identity and quantity of the penny stock to be purchased.
 
·  
In order to approve a person's account for transactions in penny stocks, the broker or dealer must:
 
·  
obtain financial information and investment experience objectives of the person; and

·  
make a reasonable determination that the transactions in penny stocks are suitable for that person and the person has sufficient knowledge and experience in financial matters to be capable of evaluating the risks of transactions in penny stocks.

The broker or dealer must also deliver, prior to any transaction in a penny stock, a disclosure schedule prescribed by the Commission relating to the penny stock market, which, in highlight form:

·  
sets forth the basis on which the broker or dealer made the suitability determination; and

·  
that the broker or dealer received a signed, written agreement from the investor prior to the transaction.

·  
disclosure also has to be made about the risks of investing in penny stocks in both public offerings and in secondary trading and about the commissions payable to both the broker-dealer and the registered representative, current quotations for the securities and the rights and remedies available to an investor in cases of fraud in penny stock transactions. Finally, monthly statements have to be sent disclosing recent price information for the penny stock held in the account and information on the limited market in penny stocks.

SHARES ELIGIBLE FOR FUTURE SALE

Future sales of substantial amounts of our common stock in the public market, or the perception that such sales may occur, could adversely affect the prevailing market price of our common stock. This could adversely affect the prevailing market price and our ability to raise equity capital in the future. Subject to this Registration Statement being declared effective, all shares of common stock sold in this offering will be freely transferable without restriction or further registration under the Securities Act, except for any shares that may be sold or purchased by our "affiliates." Shares purchased by our affiliates will be subject to the volume and other limitations of Rule 144 of the Securities Act, or "Rule 144" described below. As defined in Rule 144, an "affiliate" of an issuer is a person who, directly or indirectly, through one or more intermediaries, controls, is controlled by or is under common control with the issuer. These shares will be subject to the volume and other limitations of Rule 144.

Under Rule 144 as currently in effect, beginning 90 days after the date of this prospectus, a person who has beneficially owned restricted shares of common stock for at least one year, including the holding period of any prior owner who is not an affiliate, would be entitled to sell a number of the shares within any three-month period equal to the greater of 1% of the then outstanding shares of the common stock or the average weekly reported volume of trading of the common stock (if such common stock is traded on NASDAQ or another exchange) during the four calendar weeks preceding such sale. Under Rule 144, restricted shares are subject to manner of sale and notice requirements and requirements as to the availability of current public information concerning us.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This prospectus, any prospectus supplement and the documents incorporated by reference in this prospectus contain forward-looking statements. We have based these forward-looking statements on our current expectations and projections about future events.

In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by words such as "may," "should," "expect," "plan," "could," "anticipate," "intend," "believe," "estimate," "predict," "potential," "goal," or "continue" or similar terminology. These statements are only predictions and involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors, including the risks outlined under "Risk Factors," that may cause our or our industry's actual results, levels of activity, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements.

Unless we are required to do so under U.S. federal securities laws or other applicable laws, we do not intend to update or revise any forward-looking statements.

INDEMNIFICATION FOR SECURITIES ACT LIABILITIES

Our Articles of Incorporation, as amended, provide to the fullest extent permitted by Nevada law, our directors or officers shall not be personally liable to us or our shareholders for damages for breach of such director's or officer's fiduciary duty. The effect of this provision of our Articles of Incorporation, as amended, is to eliminate our rights and our shareholders (through shareholders' derivative suits on behalf of our company) to recover damages against a director or officer for breach of the fiduciary duty of care as a director or officer (including breaches resulting from negligent or grossly negligent behavior), except under certain situations defined by statute. We believe that the indemnification provisions in our Articles of Incorporation, as amended, are necessary to attract and retain qualified persons as directors and officers.

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 (the "Act" or "Securities Act") may be permitted to directors, officers or persons controlling us pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, we have been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.

During the six months ended June 30, 2007, Ascendiant Securities LLC, an advisor to the Company, agreed to convert $312,768 in advisory fees and expenses into 260,641 shares of common stock based  upon the fair value of the stock at the date of the agreement.

ITEM 28.   UNDERTAKINGS.

The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes to:

(1)           File, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement to:

(i)            Include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act");

(ii)           Reflect in the prospectus any facts or events which, individually or together, represent a fundamental change in the information in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of the securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the "Calculation of Registration Fee" table in the effective registration statement, and

(iii)           Include any additional or changed material information on the plan of distribution.

(2)           For determining liability under the Securities Act, treat each post-effective amendment as a new registration statement of the securities offered, and the offering of the securities at that time to be the initial bona fide offering.

(3)            File a post-effective amendment to remove from registration any of the securities that remain unsold at the end of the offering.

(4)            For purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, treat the information omitted from the form of prospectus filed by the registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(1) or (4) or 497(h) under the Securities Act as part of this registration statement as of the time it was declared effective.
 
(5)           For determining any liability under the Securities Act, treat each post-effective amendment that contains a form of prospectus as a new registration statement for the securities offered in the registration statement, and that offering of the securities at that time as the initial bona fide offering of those securities.

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.

In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

(6)             Each prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) as part of a registration statement relating to an offering, other than registration statements relying on Rule 430B or other than prospectuses filed in reliance on Rule 430A, shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of the date it is first used after effectiveness. Provided, however, that no statement made in a registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement or made in a document incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference into the registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement, will, as to a purchaser with a time of contract of sale prior to such first use, supersede or modify any statement that was made in the registration statement or prospectus that was part of the registration statement or made in any such document immediately prior to such date of first use.
