BUSINESS The principal business operations of Town House is real estate development. Its operations are conducted by and through its subsidiaries, (i) Wuhan Pacific Real Estate Development Company Limited ("Wuhan Pacific") located in Hong Kong in The People's Republic of China (the "PRC"), (ii) Town House (Miami) Corporation, a Florida corporation, and (iii) Town House Land (USA) Inc., a California corporation. The principal executive offices of Town House in the PRC are at 128 Gloucester Road, Wanchai, Hong Kong, The People's Republic of China; telephone 011-852-2517-783. The corporate organization of Town House is as follows: --------------------- Town House --------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | | --------------------- --------------------- --------------------- Town House (Miami) Wuhan Pacific Real Town House Land Corporation Estate Development (USA) Corporation --------------------- Company Limited --------------------- --------------------- Town House is a limited liability company organized in 2003 in the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region in the PRC, as a holding company. Town House owns 97% of Wuhan Pacific which was organized in Hubei Province in the PRC as a limited liability company in 1995. Substantially all of the assets and operations of Town House in the PRC are conducted through Wuhan Pacific. Town House Miami Corporation is a Florida corporation organized on November 18, 2004. Wuhan Pacific Real Estate Development Company Limited Wuhan Pacific is one of the first privately owned property developers in Wuhan City in the PRC and is one of the largest property developers in Wuhan City, based on a list of top 100 property development enterprises in Wuhan City in terms of gross floor area ("GFA"), published by the Wuhan Statistics Bureau and the Development Research Center. It had engaged principally in the development and sale of high quality commercial and private residential properties catering to the middle-class residential property market in Wuhan City and in Yi Chang. Wuhan Pacific's portfolio of properties under development are currently all located in Wuhan City and Yi Chang, and target different segments within the mass residential property market, including young white color employees, middle to senior managers in enterprises, entrepreneurs and families with young children. These upwardly mobile people represent the emerging middle class in Wuhan City and are a growing source of demand in the mass residential property market. As of June 30, 2005, Wuhan Pacific reports that it has equity interests in six property development projects in Wuhan City, with an approximate GFA of 200,000 square meters and an aggregate site area of approximately 100,566 square meters. Wuhan Pacific has obtained land use rights certificates in respect of each of these six property development projects. In addition, Wuhan Pacific has not yet obtained land use rights certificates in respect of, but has interest in and plans to develop a further five projects in Wuhan City with an approximate GFA of 252,000 square meters and an aggregate site area of approximately 70,000 square meters. Since the relevant land use rights certificates have not yet been issued or obtained, no commercial value has been assigned to any of these five additional projects or in the calculation of their adjusted net tangible asset value. Wuhan Pacific aims to further solidify its position in Wuhan City, and also plans to expand its focus on property business to Yi Chang. Wuhan Pacific also indicates that it will pursue quality business opportunities in other fast growing cities in China, if market conditions are appropriate. Wuhan Pacific was organized as a limited liability company in The People's Republic of China ("PRC") on December 18, 1995. The primary purpose of Wuhan Pacific was real estate development including apartments, retail and commercial facilities, and mixed use buildings. The principal executive office of Wuhan Pacific is located at No. 250 Jianghan Road, 32 Diamond Mansion, Jiang'an District, Wuhan City, Hubei Province in the PRC. Property Development Wuhan Pacific is principally engaged in the design and construction of luxury apartment buildings and mixed use buildings in the City of Wuhan and the City of Yi Chang in the PRC. The apartments are primarily held for sale to middle income to upper level income customers. Certain properties developed by Wuhan Pacific are mixed-use properties that also include retail and commercial floors on the lower levels of the buildings. Information concerning Wuhan City Wuhan City, located in central inland China, has played an important role of connecting the east with the west, the south with the north in the PRC. Wuhan City, with an urban population of approximately 8 million, ranks as the sixth city among the top 25 cities in the PRC with favorable development potential. In 2001, the GDP of the city reached 134.8 billion Yuan (US$0.12 per one Yuan), or 12% higher than 2000; and the annual income of citizens of Wuhan City was 7,304 Yuan, or an increase of 8% over 2000. Located at the middle reaches of the Yangtze River, Wuhan is a thoroughfare to nine provinces in the PRC. The Beijing-Guangzhou Railway and the Yangtze River intersect in Wuhan City. The Beijing-Kowloon Railway and Wuhan-Guangzhou Railway also connect in the city. The Beijing-Zhuhai and Shanghai-Chengdu super highway also cross at Wuhan City. In addition, a high-speed railway along the Yangtze River is in the process of being constructed. This high-speed road, railway and river transportation methods make Wuhan a transportation hub. Wuhan is the largest logistics and commercial center in inland China. Commodities can easily be transported to 5 provinces around Wuhan, such as Hunan, Jiangxi, Anhui, Henan and Sichuan, which have a combined population of nearly 400 million. There are presently more than 10,000 commercial organizations, 105,000 business branches, and 8 department stores in Wuhan City. As an important industrial base in China, Wuhan City has a very solid foundation in either high-tech industry or traditional manufacturing. Along the 88 kilometer ring of the city, a series of industrial zones have been established, such as China Optical Valley, Sino-Citroen Automobile City, Taiwan Business Zone and Yangluo Development Zone. With 33 different sectors and more than 30,000 industrial enterprises, Wuhan City has businesses encompassing all industries, including iron and steel, automobile, machinery, petrochemical, optical telecom, Chinese and western medicine, biology engineering, textile, garment, food industry, etc. Wuhan City is a technology research and education center, with its research and education capacity ranked third in the country, behind Beijing and Shanghai. There are 35 universities in the city, serving approximately 300,000 students. There are 736 science research institutes and 10 national labs in Wuhan City. In recent years, the Wuhan Municipal Government has focused on policies favoring an open business environment and environmental renovation, and the investment environment of Wuhan City has been continuously improved. A series of important infrastructure projects have been finished, such as the Wuhan International Airport, Airport Super Highway, No. 1 Yangtze River Bridge, No. 3 Yangtze River Bridge, an extensive telephone system, a water plant, a power plant and a waist water treatment plant. Market The principal market of Town House for its real estate development activities has been in the City of Wuhan and Yi Chang in the PRC. The City of Wuhan is the capital of Hubei Province in central China. Wuhan is the sixth largest city in the PRC with a population of approximately 8,000,000. Wuhan is an important transportation center on the Jianhan Plain, sitting at the confluence of the Yangtze River, the Hanjiang River, and its longest branch - the Hansui River. The City of Wuhan is comprised of three cities: Hanyang, Wuchang and Hankou. Because of the significant economic growth and development of central China, the City of Wuhan has experienced increasing demand for luxury residential properties and for retail and commercial space. The concept of mixed use buildings with retail and commercial space on the street level and the lowest floors with luxury apartment units on the higher floors has become increasingly popular in the PRC. As a result, recent building activity of Town House has been designed with the mixed use concept as principal objective. Town House is in competition with other real estate development companies in the City of Wuhan, some of which are larger and have greater financial resources than Town House. Government Regulation Wuhan Pacific's projects in the PRC are subject to various laws and governmental regulations, such as zoning regulations, relating to its business operations and project developments. It must obtain and keep current various licenses, permits and regulatory approvals for its development projects. Wuhan Pacific believes that it is in compliance with all laws, rules and regulations applicable to its projects and that such laws, rules and regulations do not currently have a material impact on its operations. Due to the increasing levels of development in the areas of China where it currently operates, it is possible that new laws, rules and/or regulations may be adopted that could affect Wuhan Pacific's projects or proposed projects. The enactment of such laws, rules or regulations in the future could have a negative impact on its projected growth or profitability, which could decrease its projected revenues or increase its costs of doing business. Employees As of September 30, 2005, Town House had approximately 150 employees. No employee group is covered under a collective bargaining agreement. Town House and Wuhan Pacific believe their relationship with their employees is good. Legal Proceedings Town House and its subsidiaries are not a party to, nor are any of our respective properties the subject of, any material pending legal or arbitration proceedings. Risk Factors Expansion Risks. Town House anticipates that its proposed expansion of its real estate development activities will include the construction of new building projects. Town House's cost estimates and projected completion dates for construction of new building projects may change significantly as the projects progress. In addition, Town House's projects will entail significant construction risks, including shortages of materials or skilled labor, unforeseen environmental or engineering problems, weather interferences and unanticipated cost increases, any of which could have a material adverse effect on the projects and could delay their scheduled openings. A delay in scheduled openings will delay Town House's receipt of increased sales revenues. New Projects. The projects of Town House to finance, develop, and expand its real estate processing facilities will be subject to the many risks inherent in the rapid expansion of a high growth business enterprise, including unanticipated design, construction, regulatory and operating problems, and the significant risks commonly associated with implementing a marketing strategy in changing and expanding markets. There can be no assurance that any of these projects will become operational within the estimated time frames and projected budgets at the time Town House enters into a particular agreement, or at all. In addition, Town House may develop projects as joint ventures in an effort to reduce its financial commitment to individual projects. There can be no assurance that the significant expenditures required to expand its real estate processing plants will ultimately result in the establishment of increased profitable operations. When Town House's future expansion projects become operational, Town House will be required to add and train personnel, expand its management information systems and control expenses. If Town House does not successfully address Town House's increased management needs or Town House otherwise is unable to manage its growth effectively, Town House's operating results could be materially and adversely affected. Uncertainty of Market Acceptance. Town House is currently selling its developed properties principally in the City of Wuhan and the City of Yi Chang. Achieving market acceptance for Town House's properties, particularly in new markets, will require substantial marketing efforts and the expenditure of significant funds. There is substantial risk that any new markets may not accept or be as receptive to Town House's properties. Market acceptance of Town House's current and proposed properties will depend, in large part, upon the ability of Town House to inform potential customers that the distinctive characteristics of its properties make them superior to competitive properties and justify their pricing. There can be no assurance that Town House's current and proposed properties will be accepted by consumers or that any of Town House's current or proposed properties will be able to compete effectively against other properties. Lack of market acceptance of Town House's properties would have a material adverse effect on Town House. Changing Consumer Preferences. As is the case with other companies new real estate developments, Town House is subject to changing consumer preferences and location-related concerns. Sales Force. Town House intends to hire additional sales personnel. There is no assurance that hiring these additional sales people will result in increased sales. Town House anticipates using independent sales agents to sell and distribute its real estate development projects. Town House cannot predict whether it will be able to obtain and maintain satisfactory sales arrangements and the failure to do so could have a material adverse effect on its business, operations and finances. Geographic Concentration; Fluctuations in Regional Economic Conditions. Nearly all of Town House's sales are concentrated in the central area of the PRC. Accordingly, Town House is susceptible to fluctuations in its business caused by adverse economic conditions in this region. Difficult economic conditions in other geographic areas into which Town House may expand may also adversely affect its business, operations and finances. Dependence on Executives. Town House is highly dependent on the services of Mr. Fang Zhong , Mr. Fang Weifeng, and Mr. Fang Weijun, and the loss of their services would have a material adverse impact on the operations of Town House. They have been primarily responsible for the development of Town House and the development and marketing of its real estate projects. Town House has not applied for key-man life insurance on the lives of these executives, but may do so in the future. Competition. The real estate business is highly competitive and, therefore, Town House faces substantial competition in connection with the marketing and sale of its projects. In general, real estate properties are price sensitive and affected by many factors beyond the control of Town House, including changes in consumer tastes, fluctuating commodity prices and changes in supply due to weather, production, and natural disasters. Town House's real estate properties face competition from other developers in its marketing areas; Most of Town House's competitors are well established, have greater financial, marketing, personnel and other resources, have been in business for longer periods of time than Town House, and have projects that have gained wide customer acceptance in the marketplace. The largest competitors of Town House are state-owned companies owned by the government of the PRC. Large foreign real estate companies have also entered the real estate industry in the PRC. The greater financial resources of such competitors will permit them to procure properties and to implement extensive marketing and promotional programs, both generally and in direct response to advertising claims by Town House. Lack of Property and General Liability Insurance. Town House and its subsidiaries are self-insured, and they do not carry any property insurance, general liability insurance, or any other insurance that covers the risks of their business operations. As a result, any material loss or damage to its properties or other assets, or personal injuries arising from its business operations would have a material adverse affect on its financial condition and operations. Government Regulation. Town House is subject to extensive regulation by the PRC and by other province, county and local authorities in jurisdictions in which its properties are sold. Town House believes that it is currently in substantial compliance with all material governmental laws and regulations and maintains all material permits and licenses relating to its operations. Nevertheless, there can be no assurance that Town House will continue to be in substantial compliance with current laws and regulations, or whether Town House will be able to comply with any future laws and regulations. To the extent that new regulations are adopted, Town House will be required to conform its activities in order to comply with such regulations. Failure by Town House to comply with applicable laws and regulations could subject Town House to civil remedies, including fines, injunctions, recalls or seizures, as well as potential criminal sanctions, which could have a material adverse effect on its business, operations and finances. Doing Business in the PRC. Doing business in the PRC involves various risks including internal and international political risks, evolving national economic policies as well as financial accounting standards, expropriation and the potential for a reversal in economic conditions. Since the late 1970s, the government of the PRC has been reforming the PRC economic system. These reforms have resulted in significant economic growth and social progress. Although we believe that economic reform and the macroeconomic policies and measures adopted by the current PRC government will continue to have a positive effect on economic development in the PRC and that we will continue to benefit from such policies and measures. These policies and measure may from time to time be modified or revised. Adverse changes in economic policies of the PRC government or in the laws and regulations, if any, could have a material adverse effect on the overall economic growth of the PRC, and could adversely affect our business operations. The PRC currency, "Renminbi", is not a freely convertible currency, which could limit our ability to obtain sufficient foreign currency to support our business operations in the future. Town House relies on the PRC government's foreign currency conversion policies, which may change at any time, in regard to our currency exchange needs. We receive substantially all of our revenues in Renminbi, which is not freely convertible into other foreign currencies. In the PRC, the government has control over Renminbi reserves through, among other things, direct regulation of the conversion or Renminbi into other foreign currencies and restrictions on foreign imports. Although foreign currencies which are required for "current account" transactions can be bought freely at authorized PRC banks, the proper procedural requirements prescribed by PRC law must be met. At the same time, PRC companies are also required to sell their foreign exchange earnings to authorized PRC banks and the purchase of foreign currencies for capital account transactions still requires prior approval of the PRC government. This type of heavy regulation by the PRC government of foreign currency exchange restricts certain of our business operations and a change in any of these government policies, or any other, could further negatively impact our operations. Fluctuations in the exchange rate between the PRC currency and the United States dollar could adversely affect its operating results. The functional currency of our operations in the PRC is "Renminbi". Results of our operations are translated at average exchange rates into United States dollars for purposes of reporting results. As a result, fluctuations in exchange rates may adversely affect our expenses and results of operations as well as the value of our assets and liabilities. Fluctuations may adversely affect the comparability of period-to-period results. Although we may use hedging techniques in the future (which we currently do not use), we may not be able to eliminate the effects of currency fluctuations. Thus, exchange rate fluctuations could have a material adverse impact on our operating results and stock prices. As a company based in the PRC, our shareholders may have greater difficulty in obtaining information about us on a timely basis than would shareholders of a U.S.-based company. Our operations will continue to be conducted in the PRC and shareholders may have difficulty in obtaining information about us from sources other than us. Information available from newspapers, trade journals, or local, regional or national regulatory agencies such as issuance of construction permits, contract awards for development projects, etc. will not be readily available to shareholders. Shareholders will be dependent upon our management for reports of our progress, development, activities and expenditure of proceeds. In order for the PRC subsidiaries of Town House to pay dividends in the United States, a conversion of Renminbi into US dollars is required. Under current PRC law, the conversion of Renminbi into foreign currency generally requires government consent. Government authorities may impose restrictions that could have a negative impact in the future on the conversion process and upon the ability of Town House to meet its cash needs, and to pay dividends to its shareholders. However, the subsidiaries of Town House are presently classified as a wholly owned foreign enterprise ("WOFE") in the PRC that have verifiable foreign investment in the PRC, funding having been made through an official PRC banking channel. Because the subsidiaries of Town House qualify for treatment as a WOFE, the subsidiaries can declare dividends and their funds can be repatriated to Town House in the United States under current laws and regulations in the PRC. Dependence on Additional Capital. Town House's expansion plans will require substantial capital investment. Town House intends to pay for its expansion using cash, capital stock, notes and/or assumption of indebtedness. Most of the proceeds from this offering will be required by Town House for, among other purposes, establishing additional production locations; acquiring equipment and funding inventory, and work in process. The cash generated internally and cash available from the offering may not be sufficient to provide all of the capital required for such purposes and future operations. Town House may require additional debt and/or equity financing in order to provide for such capital. There can be no assurance, however, that such financing will be available on terms satisfactory to Town House, if at all. Failure by Town House to obtain sufficient additional capital in the future could limit Town House's ability to fully implement its business strategy. Debt financings, if available, may result in increased interest and amortization expense, increased leverage, decreased income available to fund further acquisitions and expansion, and may limit Town House's ability to withstand competitive pressures and render Town House more vulnerable to economic downturns. Future equity financings may dilute the equity interest of existing shares of Common Stock. Management of Town House Directors and Officers. The following table sets forth certain information regarding the executive officers and directors of Town House. All officers serve at the pleasure of the Board of Directors. Directors serve until the election and qualification of their successors. Name Age Position ---- --- -------- Fang Zhong 41 Chairman, Director, Chief Executive Officer and President Fang Weifeng 35 Director and Vice President Fang Weijun 38 Director and Vice President Hu Min 25 Director and Vice President The following is information of the business experience of each director and officer of Town House. Mr. Fang Zhong is the founder and has been the Chairman of the Board, Chief Executive Officer and President of Town House since its organization in 2003. From 1995 to the present, he has been the Chief Executive Officer and a director of Wuhan Pacific which is the principal operating subsidiary of Town House. Mr. Fang Zhong received Bachelor of Science degree in industrial and domestic architecture from the Wuhan Institute of Urban Construction. He also participated in the MBA program at Northern Jiaotong University. He has received various awards, including "Young Entrepreneur in Central-south Area" of the PRC, and "One of Ten Excellent Young Entrepreneurs Leading Private Enterprises in Wuhan". He also holds various significant positions such as the Standing Director Hubei Physical Culture Foundation, Deputy to Jiang'an District People's Congress, a Standing Member to Jiang'an District Political Consultative Conference, and the Vice Chairman of Jiang'an District Young People Association, etc. Mr. Fang Wei Feng has been employed as the manager of the materials department and construction operations responsible for construction material purchases and distribution, since 1996. He became a director and Vice President-Construction Operations of Town House in 2003. Mr. Fan Wei Jun has been employed as the manager of the engineering department of Wuhan Pacific, since 2000.

Ms. Hu Min has been employed as the Human Resources Manager of Wuhan Pacific since 2000. She graduated from Wuhan University in 2001. Mr. Fang Zhong is married to Ms. Hu Min. Fang Zhong, Fang Weifeng and Fang Weijun are brothers. Certain Federal Income Tax Consequences Xerion has not sought an opinion as to the tax consequences of the reverse merger because the reverse merger will be treated for tax purposes as an acquisition of all of the stock of Town House in an exchange for shares of Common Stock of Xerion. Xerion believes that the acquisition will constitute a tax-free reorganization under Section 368(a)(1)(B) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), and accordingly, Xerion will not recognize any gain or loss on such exchange. IRC sections 354 and 368 state that no gain or loss shall be recognized (by the corporations) if the acquiring corporation acquires the target's stock solely in exchange for its own voting stock and the acquiring corporation is in control of the target immediately after the acquisition. IRC section 368(c) defines control to represent 80% of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock. The acquisition of Town House as a wholly-owned subsidiary is considered to be a reverse acquisition in which Xerion will acquire control of Town House. The shares issued by Xerion to be distributed to Town House will be equivalent voting shares. The Exchange Agreement appears to satisfy these IRC sections. In addition to the formal requirements of the IRC, the transaction must meet certain substantive non-statutory requirements developed through case law and IRS regulations. These non-statutory rules may change what is in form a reorganization into a taxable transaction. These two requirements are "Continuity of Interest" and "Continuity of Business Enterprise." Continuity of Interest requires that a substantial part of the value of the proprietary interest in the target must be preserved. The Exchange Agreement appears to satisfy this requirement. Continuity of Business Enterprise requires the acquiring corporation to continue to use the target's historic business or a significant portion of the target's historic business assets in the business. Xerion will preserve Town House's business and continue to use Town House's assets in the wholly-owned Town House subsidiary. In addition to these considerations, Xerion expects that its ability to utilize on an annual basis its net operating loss carry-forward ("NOL") will be eliminated entirely by the acquisition. This is due to the fact that Xerion will not be considered during the two-year periods following the acquisition, to have continued Xerion's historic business or to have used a significant portion of Xerion's assets. REPORTS OF BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 requires officers and directors of the Company and persons who own more than ten percent (10%) of a registered class of its equity securities to file reports of ownership and changes in their ownership on Form(s) 3, 4, and 5 with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, and forward copies of such filings to the Company. Based on the copies of filings received by the Company, each of the new officers and directors filed a Form 3 with the Securities and Exchange Commission reporting their respective stock ownership in the Company. All of these filings were made on November 2, 2005, the date the reports were due. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS The Colorado Business Corporation Act (the "Act"), Sections 7-109-101 through 7-109-107, contain indemnification provisions which permit indemnification by a Colorado corporation of a director or an officer against liability incurred in a proceeding if the person conducted himself or herself in good faith and reasonably believed his or her conduct was in the corporation's best interests, and that in all other cases, that his or her conduct was at least not opposed to the corporation's best interests; and in the case of a criminal proceeding, the person had no reasonable cause to believe that his or her conduct was unlawful. Section 7-109-103 of the Act provides that a corporation shall indemnify a person who was wholly successful, on the merits or otherwise, in the defense of any proceeding to which the person was a party because the person is or was a director, against reasonable expenses incurred by him or her in connection with the proceeding. Section 1-109-110 of the Act provides that a corporation shall give written notice to the shareholders if the corporation indemnifies or advances expenses to a director with or before the notice of the next shareholders' meeting. The fifth Article of the Articles of Incorporation of the Company provides that the Company shall have the right to indemnify any person to the fullest extent allowed by the laws of the State of Colorado, except as may be limited by the By-Laws of the Company. Article V of the By-Laws of the Company provides that the Company shall indemnify directors and officers for expenses and liabilities in such manner and to the extent provided by Colorado statutes. Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers, and controlling persons of the Company pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Company has been advised that in the opinion of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and, is therefore, unenforceable.

TOWN HOUSE LAND LIMITED AND SUBSIDIARIES CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS DECEMBER 31, 2004 AND 2003 TOWN HOUSE LAND LIMITED AND SUBSIDIARY TABLE OF CONTENTS PAGE Independent Auditors' Report.............................. 1 Consolidated Balance Sheets, December 31, 2004 and 2003............................. 2 Consolidated Statements of Operations, For the Years Ended December 31, 2004 and 2003......... 3 Consolidated Statements of Members' Equity For the Years Ended December 31, 2004 and 2003......... 4 Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows For the Years Ended December 31, 2004 and 2003......... 5 to 6 Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements............7 to 21 INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS AND MEMBERS OF TOWN HOUSE LAND COMPANY LIMITED (Incorporated in Hong Kong with limited liability) We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Town House Land Limited and subsidiaries (the "Company") as of December 31, 2004 and 2003 and the related consolidated statements of operations, statements of members' equity and cash flows for the years then ended. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion. In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Town House Land Limited and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2004 and 2003 and the results of their operations and cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

During the year ended December 31, 2003, the Company transferred two floors of the commercial complex in Diamond Mansion Phase 1, at a net book value of $1,929,295 from property and equipment to properties held for resale. During 2003, the Members of 97% of the registered capital of Wuhan transferred their interests to Town House Land Limited ("Town House") in a transaction treated as a recapitalization of Wuhan. In connection with that acquisition, the former Wuhan members, who became members in Town House, were to receive cash of $1,602,564, $62,628 of which was used to repay balances due from directors by Town House prior to the acquisition and the balance was treated as an increase in payables to directors at December 31, 2003. The accompanying notes are an integral part of these consolidated financial statements. 6 TOWN HOUSE LAND LIMITED AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Expressed in US dollars) 1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS Organizational Structure Wuhan Town House Land Limited ("Wuhan Town House") (formerly: Wuhan Pacific Real Estate Development Company Limited) was registered as a formal third level property Company in Hubei Province, in the People's Republic of China as a limited liability company (in which investors' potential losses are limited to their capital contributions) on December 18, 1995 with a registered capital of $1,207,729 (Rmb.10,000,000) and a defined period of existence of 14 years to December 18, 2009. To meet the qualifications of third level property company, the company must (1) have registered capital of Rmb.10,000,000, (2) have engineering and staff of not less that 12 people, (3) should have completed at lease 50,000 square meters of accumulated development area, and (4) have a 100% passing rate in construction quality and 10% ranked as excellent. Subsequent recapitalizations during 2000 increased Wuhan Town House's registered capital to $6,038,647 and changed is classification to a second level property company. To meet the qualifications of a second level property company, the company must (1) have registered capital of Rmb.40,000,000, (2) have engineering and management staff of not less than 24 people, (3) should have completed 150,000 square meters of accumulated areas completed within three years, (4) 100% pass rate in construction quality with 10% ranked as excellent, and (5) at least three years experience in property development. On August 15, 2003, Wuhan Town House entered into a reverse merger agreement with Town House Land Limited ("Town House Land"). At December 31, 2004 Town House Land held 97% of the registered capital of Wuhan Town House, directly held 100% of the equity in Town House Land (Miami) Corporation and indirectly 97% of the equity in Town House Land (USA) Inc. Collectively hereinafter, Town House Land, Wuhan Town House, Town House Land (Miami) Corporation and Town House Land (USA), Inc., are referred to as "the Company". Town House Land (formerly: Hong Kong Window of the World Apparel Co., Limited) was incorporated in Hong Kong, as a private limited liability company on August 13, 2001 with an authorized capital of $64,103 (HK$500,000) divided into 500,000 ordinary shares of par value $0.12 (HK$1.00) each. Town House Land Limited ("Town House Land") changed to its present name on August 13, 2003. On August 15, 2003, Town House Land acquired 97% of the outstanding registered capital of Wuhan Town House Land. Terms of the transaction call for Town House Land to pay $1,602,564 in cash plus the contribution of an additional $5,857,488 in share capital in Town House Land as consideration for the acquisition of the 97% interest in Wuhan Town House's registered capital. For financial reporting purposes, Wuhan Town House was considered to be the acquiring entity and the additional cash consideration paid was treated as a distribution to members. Town House Land had no operations prior to this reverse acquisition and there was substantially no change in ownership from that of Wuhan Town House as a result of this transaction. On October 10, 2003 Wuhan City Foreign Investment Bureau approved the registration of Wuhan Town House Land as a Sino Foreign Joint Investment Enterprise with a defined period of existence of 20 years to October 27, 2023. 7 TOWN HOUSE LAND LIMITED AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Expressed in US dollars) 1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS - Continued Pursuant to the approval of Wuhan City Industrial and Commercial Administrative Bureau on February 20, 2004 Wuhan Pacific Real Estate Development Company Limited changed its name to Wuhan Town House Land Limited. The Company's principal activity is the development and sale of commercial and residential real estate. The Company's principal country of operations is The People's Republic of China ("PRC"). 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES The following is a summary of significant accounting policies: Consolidation Policy - The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Town House and Wuhan Town House from August 15, 2003 forward and Town House Land (Miami) Corporation and Town House Land (USA) Inc., since their incorporation. Prior to August 15, 2003, the financial statements reflect the activity of Wuhan Town House as adjusted for the effects of the recapitalization of August 15, 2003. All significant inter-company transactions and balances within the Company are eliminated on consolidation. Cash and Equivalents - The Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with maturity period of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The carrying amounts reported in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet for cash and cash equivalents approximate their fair value. The Company has restricted cash in accordance with the loan covenants. Accounts Receivable - The Company provides an allowance for doubtful accounts equal to the estimated uncollectible amounts. The Company's estimate is based on historical collection experience and a review of the current status of trade accounts receivable. Accounts receivable in the balance sheet is stated net of such provision. Properties Held for Sale - Properties held for sale are comprised of properties held for sale and repossessed properties held for resale and are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Cost includes acquisition costs of land use rights, development expenditure, interests and any overhead costs incurred in bringing the developed properties to their present location and condition. Net realizable value is determined by reference to management estimates based on prevailing market conditions. Capital Reserve - Capital reserve represents that amount of reserve appropriated from the net distributable profit after income tax in each year when a net profit after operations is generated. In accordance with the provisions of the Company's Memorandum and Articles of Association, the Company is required to appropriate 15% of the net distributable profit after enterprises income tax to capital reserve. One-half of the capital reserve may be used for staff welfare payments and the balance one-half may be transferred back to the statement of operations to mitigate the losses from operations. The Company shall not be required to appropriate any amount to capital reserve when the balance standing in capital reserve is equal to or exceeds 50% of the registered capital. 8 TOWN HOUSE LAND LIMITED AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Expressed in US dollars) 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - Continued Property and Equipment - Property and equipment are recorded at cost and are being depreciated over the estimated useful lives of the related assets. Depreciation is computed on the straight-line basis for both financial and income tax reporting purposes over useful lives as follows: Building and land rights 40 years Equipment 5 years Motor vehicles 5-8 years Office furniture and fixtures 5 years Repairs and maintenance costs are normally charged to the statement of operations in the year in which they are incurred. In situations where it can be clearly demonstrated that the expenditure has resulted in an increase in the future economic benefits expected to be obtained from the use of the asset, the expenditure is capitalized as an additional cost of the asset. Property and equipment are evaluated annually for any impairment in value. Where the recoverable amount of any property and equipment is determined to have declined below its carrying amount, the carrying amount is reduced to reflect the decline in value. There were no property and equipment impairments recognized during the years ended December 31, 2004 and 2003. Construction-In-Progress - Properties currently under development are accounted for as construction-in-progress. Construction-in-progress is recorded at acquisition cost, including land rights cost, development expenditure, professional fees and during the course of construction for the purpose of financing the project. Upon completion and readiness for use of the project, the cost of construction-in-progress is to be transferred to properties held for sale. As of December 31, 2004, one construction project is reflected as long-term as further development has ceased until such time as new access roads are completed by the Wuhan City Government. Management anticipates these roads will be completed in the second half of 2005 at which time construction should resume on this project. Related Companies - A related company is a company in which the director has beneficial interests in and in which the company has significant influence. Income Recognition - Revenue from the sale of properties is recognized when the following four criteria are met: (1) a sale is consummated, (2) the buyers initial and continuing investments are adequate to demonstrate a commitment to pay for the property, (3) the seller's receivable is not subject to future subordination, and (4) the seller has transferred to the buyer the usual risks and rewards of ownership in a transaction that is in substance a sale and does not have a substantial continuing involvement with the property. Interest income is recognized when earned, taking into account the average principal amounts outstanding and the interest rates applicable. Cost of Properties Sold - The cost of goods sold includes the carrying amount of the properties being sold and the business taxes paid by the Company in connection with the sales. Business taxes included in cost of sales were $1,128,870 and $403,922 for the years ended December 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively. 9 TOWN HOUSE LAND LIMITED AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Expressed in US dollars) 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - Continued Foreign Currencies - These financial statements have been prepared in U.S. dollars. The functional currencies for Town House and Wuhan Pacific are the "Hong Kong dollar" and "Renminbi" or "Yuan", respectively. Nonmonetary assets and liabilities are translated at historical rates, monetary assets and liabilities are translated at the exchange rates in effect at the end of the year, and income statement accounts are translated at average exchange rates. There were no material translation gains or losses during the years ended December 31, 2004 and 2003 as the Renminbi was tied to the U.S. Dollar during the time period covered in these financial statements. Taxation - Taxation on overseas profits has been calculated on the estimated assessable profits for the year at the rates of taxation prevailing in the countries in which the Company operates. Provision for The People's Republic of China enterprise income tax is calculated at the prevailing rate based on the estimated assessable profits less available tax relief for losses brought forward. Enterprise income tax Under the Provisional Regulations of The People's Republic of China Concerning Income Tax on Enterprises promulgated by the State Council and which came into effect on January 1, 1994, income tax is payable by enterprises at a rate of 33% of their taxable income. Preferential tax treatment may, however, be granted pursuant to any law or regulations from time to time promulgated by the State Council. For the year ended December 31, 2004, the Company has been granted the privilege of computing the gross profit margins on real estate development sales at 15% of sales and computed the enterprise income tax at 33% on only 15% of sales. Enterprise income tax ("EIT") is provided on the basis of the statutory profit for financial reporting purposes, adjusted for income and expense items, which are not assessable or deductible for income tax purposes. Retirement Benefit Costs - According to The People's Republic of China regulations on pension, the Company contributes to a defined contribution retirement plan organized by municipal government in the province in which the Company was registered and all qualified employees are eligible to participate in the plan. Contributions to the plan are calculated at 20% or 26% of the employees' salaries above a fixed threshold amount and the employees contribute 6% while the Company contributes the balance contribution of 14% or 20%. The Company has no other material obligation for the payment of retirement benefits beyond the annual contributions under this plan. For the years ended December 31, 2004 and 2003, the Company's pension cost charged to the statements of operations under the plan amounted to $5,974 and $1,814, respectively. Fair Value of Financial Instruments - The carrying amounts of certain financial instruments, including cash, accounts receivable, commercial notes receivable, other receivables, accounts payable, commercial notes payable, accrued expenses, and other payables approximate their fair values as of December 31, 2004 because of the relatively short-term maturity of these instruments. 10 TOWN HOUSE LAND LIMITED AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Expressed in US dollars) 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - Continued Use of Estimates - The preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles require management to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The most significant estimates related to allowance for uncollectible accounts receivable, depreciation, costs to complete construction in progress, taxes, and contingencies. Estimates may be adjusted as more current information becomes available, and any adjustment could be significant. Recent Accounting Pronouncements - In April 2003, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 149, Amendment of Statement 133 on Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities. This statement amends and clarifies financial accounting and reporting for derivative instruments and for hedging actives under FASB No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities. As of December 31, 2004, the Company had no derivative or hedging activity. In May 2003, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 150 Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of both Liability and Equity. This standard establishes standards for how an issuer classifies and measures certain financial instruments with characteristics of both liabilities and equity. As of December 31, 2004, the Company had no financial instruments with these characteristics. In November 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 151, Inventory Costs - an amendment of ARB No. 43, Chapter 4. SFAS No. 151 requires that certain abnormal costs associated with the manufacturing, freight, and handling costs associated with inventory be charged to current operations in the period in which they are incurred. The adoption of SFAS 151 had no impact on the Company's financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. In December 2004, the FASB issued a revision of SFAS No. 123, Share-Based Payment. The statement establishes standards for the accounting for transactions in which an entity exchanges its equity investments for goods and services. It also addresses transactions in which an entity incurs liabilities in exchange for goods or services that are based on the fair value of the entity's equity instruments or that may be settled by the issuance of those equity instruments. The statement does not change the accounting guidance for share-based payments with parties other than employees. The statement requires a public entity to measure the cost of employee service received in exchange for an award of equity instruments based on the grant-date fair value of the award (with limited exception). That cost will be recognized over the period during which an employee is required to provide service in exchange for the award (usually the vesting period). A public entity will initially measure the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award of liability instrument based on its current fair value; the fair value of that award will be remeasured subsequently at each reporting date through the settlement date. Changes in fair value during the requisite service period will be recognized as compensation over that period. The grant-date for fair value of employee share options and similar instruments will be estimated using option-pricing models adjusted for the unique characteristics of these instruments. 11 TOWN HOUSE LAND LIMITED AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Expressed in US dollars) 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - Continued The statement is effective for the quarter beginning January 1, 2006. In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 153, Exchanges of Nonmonetary Assets-amendment of APB Opinion No. 29.

The Company's principal activity is the development and sale of commercial and residential real estate. TOWN HOUSE LAND LIMITED AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS JUNE 30, 2005 (Expressed in US dollars) 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES The following is a summary of significant accounting policies: Consolidation Policy - The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Town House and Wuhan Town House from August 15, 2003 forward and Town House Land (Miami) Corporation and Town House Land (USA) Inc., since their incorporation. Prior to August 15, 2003, the financial statements reflect the activity of Wuhan Town House as adjusted for the effects of the recapitalization of August 15, 2003. All significant inter-company transactions and balances within the Company are eliminated on consolidation. Cash and Equivalents - The Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with a maturity period of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The carrying amounts reported in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet for cash and cash equivalents approximate their fair value. The Company has restricted cash in accordance with the loan covenants. Accounts Receivable - The Company provides an allowance for doubtful accounts equal to the estimated uncollectible amounts. The Company's estimate is based on historical collection experience and a review of the current status of trade accounts receivable. Accounts receivable in the balance sheet is stated net of such provision. Properties Held for Sale - Properties held for sale are comprised of properties held for sale and repossessed properties held for resale and are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Cost includes acquisition costs of land use rights, development expenditure, interests and any overhead costs incurred in bringing the developed properties to their present location and condition. Net realizable value is determined by reference to management estimates based on prevailing market conditions. Capital Reserve - Capital reserve represents that amount of reserve appropriated from the net distributable profit after income tax in each year when a net profit after operations is generated. In accordance with the provisions of the Company's Memorandum and Articles of Association, the Company is required to appropriate a portion of the net distributable profit after enterprises income tax to capital reserve. The amount appropriated is determined on an annual basis by the Board of Directors. One-half of the capital reserve may be used for staff welfare payments and the balance one-half may be transferred back to the statement of operations to mitigate the losses from operations. The Company shall not be required to appropriate any amount to capital reserve when the balance standing in capital reserve is equal to or exceeds 50% of the registered capital. TOWN HOUSE LAND LIMITED AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS JUNE 30, 2005 (Expressed in US dollars) 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - Continued Property and Equipment - Property and equipment are recorded at cost and are being depreciated over the estimated useful lives of the related assets. Depreciation is computed on the straight-line basis for both financial and income tax reporting purposes over useful lives as follows: Building and land rights 40 years Equipment 5 years Motor vehicles 5-8 years Office furniture and fixtures 5 years Repairs and maintenance costs are normally charged to the statement of operations in the year in which they are incurred. In situations where it can be clearly demonstrated that the expenditure has resulted in an increase in the future economic benefits expected to be obtained from the use of the asset, the expenditure is capitalized as an additional cost of the asset. Property and equipment are evaluated annually for any impairment in value. Where the recoverable amount of any property and equipment is determined to have declined below its carrying amount, the carrying amount is reduced to reflect the decline in value. There were no property and equipment impairments recognized during the years ended December 31, 2004 and 2003, or the six months ended June 30, 2005. Construction-In-Progress - Properties currently under development are accounted for as construction-in-progress. Construction-in-progress is recorded at acquisition cost, including land rights cost, development expenditure, professional fees and during the course of construction for the purpose of financing the project. Upon completion and readiness for use of the project, the cost of construction-in-progress is to be transferred to properties held for sale. As of June 30, 2005, two construction projects are reflected as long-term as construction on both projects has been delayed. Related Companies - A related company is a company in which the director has beneficial interests in and in which the company has significant influence. Revenue Recognition - Revenue from the sale of properties is recognized when the following four criteria are met: (1) a sale is consummated, (2) the buyers initial and continuing investments are adequate to demonstrate a commitment to pay for the property, (3) the seller's receivable is not subject to future subordination, and (4) the seller has transferred to the buyer the usual risks and rewards of ownership in a transaction that is in substance a sale and does not have a substantial continuing involvement with the property. Interest income is recognized when earned, taking into account the average principal amounts outstanding and the interest rates applicable. Cost of Properties Sold - The cost of goods sold includes the carrying amount of the properties being sold and the business taxes paid by the Company in connection with the sales. Business taxes included in cost of sales were $296,663 and $210,189 for the six months ended June 30, 2005 and 2004, respectively. TOWN HOUSE LAND LIMITED AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS JUNE 30, 2005 (Expressed in US dollars) 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - Continued Foreign Currencies - These financial statements have been prepared in U.S. dollars. The functional currencies for Town House and Wuhan Pacific are the "Hong Kong dollar" and "Renminbi" or "Yuan", respectively. Nonmonetary assets and liabilities are translated at historical rates, monetary assets and liabilities are translated at the exchange rates in effect at the end of the year, and income statement accounts are translated at average exchange rates. There were no material translation gains or losses during the years ended June 30, 2005 and 2004 as the Renminbi was tied to the U.S. Dollar during the time period covered in these financial statements. Taxation - Taxation on overseas profits has been calculated on the estimated assessable profits for the year at the rates of taxation prevailing in the countries in which the Company operates. Provision for The People's Republic of China enterprise income tax is calculated at the prevailing rate based on the estimated assessable profits less available tax relief for losses brought forward. Enterprise Income Tax - Under the Provisional Regulations of The People's Republic of China Concerning Income Tax on Enterprises promulgated by the State Council and which came into effect on January 1, 1994, income tax is payable by enterprises at a rate of 33% of their taxable income. Preferential tax treatment may, however, be granted pursuant to any law or regulations from time to time promulgated by the State Council. For the year ended December 31, 2004, the Company has been granted the privilege of computing the gross profit margins on real estate development sales at 15% of sales and computed the enterprise income tax at 33% on only 15% of sales. Enterprise income tax ("EIT") is provided on the basis of the statutory profit for financial reporting purposes, adjusted for income and expense items, which are not assessable or deductible for income tax purposes. Retirement Benefit Costs - According to The People's Republic of China regulations on pension, the Company contributes to a defined contribution retirement plan organized by municipal government in the province in which the Company was registered and all qualified employees are eligible to participate in the plan. Contributions to the plan are calculated at 20% or 26% of the employees' salaries above a fixed threshold amount and the employees contribute 6% while the Company contributes the balance contribution of 14% or 20%. The Company has no other material obligation for the payment of retirement benefits beyond the annual contributions under this plan. For the six months ended June 30, 2005 and 2004, the Company's pension cost charged to the statements of operations under the plan amounted to $4,818 and $3,171, respectively. Fair Value of Financial Instruments - The carrying amounts of certain financial instruments, including cash, accounts receivable, commercial notes receivable, other receivables, accounts payable, commercial notes payable, accrued expenses, and other payables approximate their fair values as of December 31, 2004 because of the relatively short-term maturity of these instruments. TOWN HOUSE LAND LIMITED AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS JUNE 30, 2005 (Expressed in US dollars) 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - Continued Use of Estimates - The preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles require management to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The most significant estimates related to allowance for uncollectible accounts receivable, depreciation, costs to complete construction in progress, taxes, and contingencies. Estimates may be adjusted as more current information becomes available, and any adjustment could be significant. Recent Accounting Pronouncements - In December 2004, the FASB issued a revision of SFAS No. 123, Share-Based Payment. The statement establishes standards for the accounting for transactions in which an entity exchanges its equity investments for goods and services. It also addresses transactions in which an entity incurs liabilities in exchange for goods or services that are based on the fair value of the entity's equity instruments or that may be settled by the issuance of those equity instruments. The statement does not change the accounting guidance for share-based payments with parties other than employees. The statement requires a public entity to measure the cost of employee service received in exchange for an award of equity instruments based on the grant-date fair value of the award (with limited exception). That cost will be recognized over the period during which an employee is required to provide service in exchange for the award (usually the vesting period). A public entity will initially measure the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award of liability instrument based on its current fair value; the fair value of that award will be remeasured subsequently at each reporting date through the settlement date. Changes in fair value during the requisite service period will be recognized as compensation over that period. The grant-date for fair value of employee share options and similar instruments will be estimated using option-pricing models adjusted for the unique characteristics of these instruments. The statement is effective for the quarter beginning January 1, 2006. In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 153, Exchanges of Nonmonetary Assets-amendment of APB Opinion No. 29. SFAS No. 153 eliminates the exception to fair value for exchanges of similar productive assets and replaces it with a general exception for exchange transactions that do not have commercial substance, defined as transactions that are not expected to result in significant changes in the cash flows of the reporting entity. This statement is effective for exchanges of nonmonetary assets occurring after June 15, 2005. Management believes adoption of these new statements will not have any significant effect on the Company's financial condition or results of operations. 3. CONCENTRATIONS OF BUSINESS AND CREDIT RISK Significant amounts of the Company's bank accounts are in banks located in the People's Republic of China ("PRC") and are not covered by any type of protection similar to that provided by the FDIC on funds held in U.S banks.
