FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION

This Annual Report on Form 20-F contains forward-looking statements regarding our business, financial condition, results of operations, controls and procedures, and prospects that are based on our current expectations, estimates and projections. In addition, other written or oral statements which constitute forward-looking statements may be made by or on behalf of the registrant. Words such as "expects," "anticipates," "intends," "plans," "believes," "seeks," "estimates," or variations of such words and similar expressions are intended to identify such forward-looking statements. These statements are not guarantees of future performance, and are inherently subject to risks and uncertainties that are difficult to predict. As a result, actual outcomes and results may differ materially from the outcomes and results discussed in or anticipated by the forward-looking statements. All such statements are therefore qualified in their entirety by reference to the factors specifically addressed in the section entitled "Risk Factors" as well as those discussed elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 20-F. We operate in a very competitive and rapidly changing environment. New risks can arise and it is not possible for management to predict all such risks, nor can it assess the impact of all such risks on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements. Given these risks and uncertainties, investors should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements as a prediction of actual results. All forward-looking statements speak only as of the date of this Annual Report on Form 20-F. We undertake no obligation to revise or update publicly any forward-looking statements in order to reflect any event or circumstance that may arise after the date of this Annual Report on Form 20-F, other than as required by law.

D. Risk Factors

This Annual Report on Form 20-F contains forward-looking statements. When considering the forward-looking statements made in this annual report, you should consider the risks set forth directly below, and other cautionary statements throughout this report, which may cause actual results to vary materially from the outcomes discussed in the forward-looking statements.

RISKS RELATED TO OUR BUSINESS

BECAUSE THE REVENUE AND INCOME POTENTIAL OF OUR BUSINESS AND MARKETS ARE UNPROVEN, WE CANNOT PREDICT WHETHER WE WILL MEET INTERNAL OR EXTERNAL EXPECTATIONS OF FUTURE PERFORMANCE.

We believe that our future success depends on our ability to significantly increase revenue from our operations. Accordingly, our prospects must be considered in light of the risks, expenses and difficulties frequently encountered by technology and innovation companies. These risks include our ability to:

·	Offer competitive pricing for our services;

·	Offer new and innovative mobile products;

·	Maintain our current relationships and develop new strategic relationships;

·	Attract and retain qualified employees;

·	Upgrade our technology infrastructure to manage increased messaging demands and trends;

·	Maintain our current customer and user base of our IDE software; and

·	Offer new and innovative upgrades to our IDE software.

IF WE ARE UNABLE TO OBTAIN ADDITIONAL FUNDS IN A TIMELY MANNER OR ON ACCEPTABLE TERMS, WE MAY HAVE TO CURTAIL OR SUSPEND CERTAIN ASPECTS OF OUR BUSINESS OPERATIONS, WHICH COULD HAVE A MATERIAL ADVERSE EFFECT ON OUR BUSINESS RELATIONSHIPS, FINANCIAL RESULTS, FINANCIAL CONDITION AND PROSPECTS.

We anticipate that our cash and cash equivalents balance at March 31, 2010 of $1,160,881 along with cash generated from operations will be sufficient to meet our present operating and capital expenditures through fiscal 2011. However, there is no guarantee that unanticipated circumstances will not require additional liquidity.

Future liquidity and cash requirements will depend on a wide range of factors; including the level of success the Company has in executing its strategic plan as well as its ability to maintain business in existing operations and to raise additional financing. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to meet its working capital needs for any future period.

WE HAVE CONTRACTED WITH THIRD PARTIES TO PROVIDE MOBILE CONTENT FOR OUR ACQUIRED INTERNET PORTALS AND WE MAY LOSE USERS AND REVENUE IF THESE ARRANGEMENTS ARE TERMINATED.

We have arrangements with a number of third parties to provide mobile content to our subscriber base. Although no single third party service provider is critical to our operations, if these parties fail to develop and maintain high-quality and successful mobile content, or if a large number of our existing relationships are terminated, we could lose customers and our content may become less desirable.

WE MAY EXPERIENCE DIFFICULTIES ACCURATELY FORECASTING OUR OPERATING RESULTS, THEREBY MAKING OUR BUSINESS OPERATIONS MORE DIFFICULT TO SUSTAIN.

Due to the intense competition in the mobile content and database industries, we may not be able to accurately forecast our future operating results. If our gross margins from our operations fall materially short of estimated expenses, our business operations will become more difficult to sustain since we will then have to reduce our spending and/or raise additional capital over and above any current capital raising plans. It may not be possible for us to accomplish either task in a timely manner, or at all, in which event we would have to curtail or suspend certain or all of our business operations. Any action to such effect is likely to have a material adverse effect on our business relationships, financial results, financial condition and prospects.

OUR QUARTERLY OPERATING RESULTS ARE SUBJECT TO SIGNIFICANT FLUCTUATIONS.

We may experience significant fluctuations in our quarterly operating results due to a variety of factors, many of which are outside of our control. Factors that may cause our quarterly operating results to fluctuate include: our ability to retain existing customers, attract new customers at a steady rate and maintain user satisfaction; technical difficulties or system downtime; the amount and timing of operating costs and capital expenditures relating to expansion of our business, operations and infrastructure; and industry regulation. As a result of these and other factors, you should not place undue reliance on quarter-to-quarter comparisons of our operating results as indicators of likely future performance.

WE MAY NOT BE ABLE TO ADAPT QUICKLY ENOUGH TO TECHNOLOGICAL CHANGE AND CHANGING CUSTOMER REQUIREMENTS, THEREBY LOSING SALES.

If we are unable to adapt to the rapid changes in technology and customer needs that are inherent to technology based industries, we may lose sales and fail to grow. In order to meet these rapid changes, we will have to effectively integrate new wireless and data technologies, continue to develop our technologies and technical expertise and respond to changing customer needs.

THE LOSS OF THE SERVICES OF DR. MICHAEL COWPLAND, MR JAMES STECHYSON AND OTHER KEY PERSONNEL COULD NEGATIVELY AFFECT OUR BUSINESS.

We currently depend heavily on the services of Dr. Michael Cowpland and Mr. James Stechyson. The loss of the services of Dr. Cowpland and Mr. Stechyson and other key personnel could affect our performance in a material and adverse way.

OUR INTERNAL CONTROLS ARE NOT EFFECTIVE.

We did not have effective internal control procedures in place at March 31, 2010, when we evaluated our internal control over financial reporting under Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. This could affect the reliability of our financial statements. We are attempting to remedy our weaknesses but as a small company we have limited resources to employ for this purpose. See item 15 of this 20F for additional information on our attempts to rectify our weaknesses. The reduction of the risk will require additional expenses and use of management's time.

OUR STRATEGIC DIRECTION IS EVOLVING, WHICH COULD NEGATIVELY AFFECT OUR FUTURE RESULTS.

Since inception, our business model has evolved and is likely to continue to evolve as we refine our offerings and market focus. Prior to 2004, we focused on developing SMS products, in 2004 through to fiscal 2007 we focused on our SMS aggregation services. From fiscal 2008 to 2010, we focused on offering mobile content, applications development and the development of new IDE software. We continue to evaluate opportunities and alternative strategies in a rapidly evolving market. We plan to leverage our intellectual capital, core technologies and other business assets to focus on new strategic directions and attempt to maximize shareholder value. Changes to our business may not prove successful in the short or long term and may negatively impact our financial results.

WE OPERATE IN NEW AND RAPIDLY EVOLVING MARKETS, AND OUR BUSINESS MODEL CONTINUES TO EVOLVE, WHICH MAKES IT DIFFICULT TO EVALUATE OUR FUTURE PROSPECTS.

Our potential for future profitability must be considered in the light of the risks, uncertainties, and difficulties encountered by companies that are in new and rapidly evolving markets and continuing to innovate with new and unproven technologies or services, as well as undergoing significant change. In addition to the other risks we describe in this section, some of these risks relate to our potential inability to attract and retain unique and sought after content; to control expenditures and to respond quickly and appropriately to industry developments, including rapid technological change; changes in customer requirements; and new products introduced into our markets by our competitors. If we do not effectively address the risks we face, we may not achieve profitability.

WE DEPEND ON THIRD PARTIES FOR CONTENT FOR OUR MOBILE CONTENT SITE AND THE LOSS OF ACCESS TO OR INCREASED COST OF THIS CONTENT COULD CAUSE US TO REDUCE OUR PRODUCT OFFERINGS TO CUSTOMERS AND COULD NEGATIVELY IMPACT OUR FINANCIAL RESULTS.

Advanced Internet Inc. (“AIS”) has the right to acquire content from numerous third-party content providers, and our future success with AIS is highly dependent upon our ability to maintain these relationships and enter into new relationships with other content providers.

We may license content under various arrangements that could require us to pay usage or fixed monthly fees or revenue sharing for the use of the content. In the future, some of our content providers may not give us access to important content or may increase the royalties, fees or percentages that they charge us for their content, which could have a negative impact on our net earnings. If we fail to enter into or maintain satisfactory arrangements with these content providers, our ability to provide a variety of products and services to our customers could be severely limited, thus harming our operating results.

IF WE ARE UNABLE TO MANAGE THE INTEGRATION OF ANY ACQUIRED BUSINESSES, OUR FINANCIAL CONDITION AND OPERATING RESULTS MAY BE ADVERSELY AFFECTED.

A failure to effectively manage the integration of any acquisitions we may make may adversely affect our business and financial condition. Any acquisition that we make will place significant demand on management, technical and other resources.

WE HAVE AFFILIATED SHAREHOLDERS WHO CAN SUBSTANTIALLY INFLUENCE THE OUTCOME OF ALL MATTERS VOTED UPON BY OUR SHAREHOLDERS AND WHOSE INTERESTS MAY NOT BE ALIGNED WITH YOURS.

The beneficial ownership of our Chief Executive Officer and related parties is approximately 59.5%. As a result, they are able to substantially influence all matters requiring the approval of our shareholders, including the election of directors and the approval of significant corporate transactions such as acquisitions. This concentration of ownership could delay, defer or prevent a change in control or otherwise impede a merger or other business combination that our Board of Directors or other shareholders may view favorably.

RISKS RELATED TO THE INDUSTRIES IN WHICH WE OPERATE

INTENSE COMPETITION IN THE MOBILE CONTENT AND SERVICES MARKETS COULD PREVENT US FROM INCREASING SUBSCRIPTIONS FOR OUR SERVICES OR CAUSE US TO LOSE MARKET SHARE.

Our future business model for mobile content sales and applications depends on our ability to sell our content and service offerings in an extremely competitive and rapidly changing market. Our competitors may have substantially greater financial, technical and marketing resources, larger customer bases, longer operating histories, more developed infrastructures, greater name recognition or more established relationships in the industry than we have. Our competitors may be able to adopt more aggressive pricing policies, develop and expand their service offerings more rapidly, adapt to new or emerging technologies and changes in customer requirements more quickly, take advantage of acquisitions and other opportunities more readily, achieve greater economies of scale, and devote greater resources to the marketing and sale of their services than we can. Because of these competitive factors and due to our relatively small size and financial resources, we may be unable to compete successfully.

CONSOLIDATION IN THE INDUSTRIES IN WHICH WE OPERATE COULD LEAD TO INCREASED COMPETITION AND LOSS OF CUSTOMERS.

The mobile industry has experienced substantial consolidation. We expect this consolidation to continue. These acquisitions could adversely affect our business and results of operations in a number of ways, including the following:

·	our distribution partners could acquire or be acquired by one of our competitors and terminate their relationship with us;

·	our distribution partners could merge with each other, which could reduce our ability to negotiate favorable terms;

·	competitors could improve their competitive positions through strategic acquisitions; and

·	companies from whom we acquire content could acquire or be acquired by one of our competitors and stop licensing content to us, or gain additional negotiating leverage in their relationships with us.

ITEM 4. INFORMATION ON THE COMPANY

History and Development of the Company

ZIM’s principal place of business and registered office is located at 150 Isabella Street, Suite 150, Ottawa, Ontario, Canada, K1S 1V7 and we can be contacted at (613) 727-1397. In the United States our agent is Corporate Stock Transfer, Inc., located at 3200 Cherry Creek South Dr., #430, Denver, CO, 80209 and can be contacted at (303) 282-4800.

ZIM was incorporated under the Canadian Business Corporations Act on October 17, 2002 in order to purchase ZIM Technologies International Inc. ("ZIM Technologies"), which was formed in 1997 to acquire the software technology now called the ZIM Integrated Development Environment (the "ZIM IDE software"). On February 10, 2004, ZIM purchased UK-based SMS service firms EPL Communications Limited and E-Promotions Limited (together referred to as "EPL"). During the year ended March 31, 2006, EPL was dissolved and all operations were transferred to ZIM Corporation in Canada. ZIM is also the sole shareholder of ZIM Technologies do Brazil Ltda., a company incorporated in Brazil that distributes the ZIM IDE Software, and PCI Merge, Inc., a Florida based holding company with no operations. Until March 31, 2004, ZIM was the sole shareholder of ZIM Technologies, a Canadian federal corporation and the chief operating company of the ZIM group of companies. On April 1, 2004, ZIM Corporation and ZIM Technologies amalgamated into ZIM Corporation. On April 1, 2006, ZIM purchased a US-based mobile content company called Advanced Internet Inc. (“AIS”).

ZIM started operations as a developer and provider of database software known as ZIM IDE software. ZIM IDE software is used by companies in the design, development, and management of information databases and mission critical applications. The Company continues to provide this software and ongoing maintenance services to its client base.

Beginning in 2002, the Company expanded its business strategy to include opportunities associated with mobile products. Prior to fiscal 2007, the Company focused on developing products and services for the wireless data network infrastructure known as “SMS” or “text messaging”. Although SMS will continue to provide a minimal amount of revenue within the mobile segment of operations, with the acquisition of AIS in 2007 the Company shifted its corporate focus to include offering mobile content directly to end users.

In fiscal 2008, ZIM added the ZIM TV service and in partnership with the International Table Tennis Federation (ITTF) provided development and hosting services for IPTV to ITTF end users. However, in fiscal 2009, ZIM exited the IPTV market.

In fiscal 2010, ZIM continues to develop and sell enterprise database software to end users as well as maintain its SMS messaging and mobile content and service product lines.

The following tables show the breakdown of total revenues by category of activity and geographic market:

MOBILE

Our business strategy previously involved designing mobile data software products to take advantage of the existing wireless data network infrastructure known as Short Message Service (SMS). SMS, mobile messaging, or text messaging, as it is also known, enables users to communicate person to person and application to person through cellular handsets and other SMS-enabled devices. The expertise we gained in the SMS infrastructure and network allowed us to expand into the aggregation of SMS messages in 2004. Aggregators transmit a broad variety of messaging, content, and applications worldwide. ZIM continues to provide a high-volume delivery infrastructure that is scalable with detailed reporting available to our mobile content customers.

During the year ended March 31, 2006, it became apparent that the SMS aggregation market was becoming consolidated, which made it increasingly difficult for us to compete. We noticed a downward trend in sales of aggregation services by the end of the third quarter of fiscal 2006 and decided to expand our product and service offerings. On April 1, 2006, we acquired all of the outstanding capital stock of Advanced Internet, Inc. (“AIS”), from Advanced Telecom Services, Inc. (“ATS”).

For fiscal 2008 we increased our pricing model for our mobile content products. This stabilized our mobile content revenues and resulted in higher gross margins for fiscal 2008 in this business segment.

On July 16, 2007, ZIM Corporation signed an agreement with SilverBirch Inc. to sell certain mobile messaging assets. The assets included ZIM’s Canadian mobile gateway technology, customer contracts and proprietary web to text applications. Refer to note 5 of our financial statement “GAIN ON DISPOSITION OF ASSETS” for additional information on this transaction.

Mobile content continues to be a very competitive business and we do not foresee the ability to increase this business in any significant way. The management of ZIM will continue to investigate opportunities to maximize value for the company in the mobile content space. However, there are no guarantees that we will be successful at identifying new opportunities.

SOFTWARE

Historically, we were a developer and provider of the ZIM (IDE) software, which is used by companies in the design, development, and management of information databases. We now license the ZIM IDE software products to customers through direct and partner sales.

The ZIM IDE software provides an integrated development environment (IDE) for Microsoft Windows, UNIX and Linux computer operating systems. An integrated development environment is a set of programs that runs from a single user interface for use in the creation of applications and management of databases.

The ZIM IDE software was designed to handle complex data management in a more efficient manner than the database technologies historically provided by other vendors. The distinctive characteristic of the ZIM IDE software is its object dictionary which contains more than just a table of data. Instead, all relationships and data information are concurrently stored in the object dictionary, making it easier to manage and retrieve information. Furthermore, ZIM IDE software uses data sets rather than record-by-record access to manage information. This technique further simplifies the management of data.

The ZIM IDE software has been used to develop database applications that have been deployed in a wide range of industries, including finance, insurance, marketing, human resources, information and records management. Applications built with the ZIM IDE will also fully access most other major databases such as Oracle and SQL Server.

In fiscal 2008, 2009 and 2010, we continued to support our existing customer base and users of the ZIM IDE software. In addition, we continued to allocate research and development resources to improve the performance and features of the ZIM IDE software.

COMPETITION

ZIM operates primarily in two markets; mobile and database software, as an aggregator and a provider of mobile content and applications and enterprise software. Our competitors include mobile application providers, mobile application aggregators, entertainment and other digital media companies, and the mobile operators themselves, as they also offer mobile content directly to their end users. The database market is highly diversified and includes both small and large competitors.

All these markets are highly competitive and rapidly changing due to the respective natures of these growing markets. We have many competitors in the mobile markets, including WIN PLC, MBlox and Mobile365 in aggregation and Verisign, which owns Jamster and Monstermob in mobile content.

In the database market, our competitors include Oracle, Microsoft, SAP, MySQL and many others. These competitors have certain competitive advantages over us, including but not limited to:

·	substantially greater financial and technical resources;

·	more extensive and well-developed marketing and sales networks;

·	greater global brand recognition; and

·	larger customer bases.

We compete within the aggregation market primarily for volume of traffic and strategic relationships. However, our volumes decreased substantially in 2008, 2009 and 2010 as a result of management’s previously disclosed decision to decrease our focus in this area due to declining margins and the company’s inability to locate less expensive routes for its traffic. Since the mobile content market is aimed at consumers, rather than business customers, we compete in the mobile content market for subscribers and for the quality of the content in our offering.

Our existing competitors may in the future achieve greater market acceptance and gain additional market share. It is also possible that new competitors may emerge and acquire significant market share.

We compete in the mobile aggregation and content environment based on our ability to connect to international operators through a variety of strategic relationships with other aggregators and mobile operators. We have developed strategic relationships with a range of content and service partners in order to serve our customers more effectively and to extend our services to an international audience. We compete in the mobile content space based on existing brand recognition and our ability to offer new and intriguing content. As mentioned above, the management of ZIM will continue to investigate opportunities to maximize value for the company in the mobile content space. However there are no guarantees that we will be successful at identifying new opportunities.

CUSTOMERS

During fiscal 2010, we had more than 5 revenue generating customers in at least 4 countries in our mobile segment. In addition, we had in excess of 100 customers who utilized ZIM IDE to run their enterprise applications. Only one customer accounted for over 10% of revenue for the year ended March 31, 2009 and no customers accounted for over 10% of revenue for the year ended March 31, 2008 and March 31, 2010. In the mobile content market ZIM serves thousands of customers on a monthly basis.

TECHNOLOGY INFRASTRUCTURE

We believe that our technology is essential to successfully implement our strategy of expanding and enhancing our products and services, expanding in the mobile media market and maintaining the attractiveness and competitiveness of our products and services.

Our servers run on Linux and Windows platforms using Postgres and mySQL and proprietary SMPP servers. SMPP is a short message peer-to-peer protocol for exchanging SMS messages between SMS peer entities such as short message service centers. It is used to allow third parties to submit messages, often in bulk. On July 16, 2007, ZIM Corporation signed an agreement with SilverBirch Inc. to sell certain SMS assets. The assets included our Canadian SMPP platform, which we sold for approximately $70,395. Our database system is an advanced entity-relationship database, which also operates on Windows Unix and Linux platforms.

Through the acquisition of AIS, we now own the platform for the mobile content portals. Using a third party’s hosting facilities, our portals can serve hundreds of thousands of visitors monthly. Our platform uses scalable web server and SQL database server facilities to ensure adequate support to a large number of subscribers and different types of contents.

Our platform consists of two main components, the web server and the database server. The web server is the main customer interface providing all necessary facilities for browsing, searching and purchasing mobile contents. It is hosted on a separate machine running Microsoft Internet Information Service (IIS) offering Search Engine Optimized (SEO) pages and content structure to ensure a high page ranking for our sites and ease of customer search and navigation.

The database server houses all the content structure and subscriber database. It is hosted on a fully redundant machine equipped with Redundant Array of Independent Disks (RAIDs) running Microsoft SQL Server. Our platform is completely data-driven and optimized for search engines to ensure direct, easy search and access to all content offered on our sites.

Our platform incorporates its own billing facilities, has direct access to credit card transactions, cheque clearing brokers, PayPal and various carriers for premium SMS charging facilities.

RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT

Our research and development activities focus primarily in the areas of IDE software mobile content applications and services. Research and development expenditures were $482,629 in fiscal 2010, $457,979 in fiscal 2009 and $512,287 in fiscal 2008.

PATENTS AND INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY PROTECTION

Intellectual property does not represent a material part of our assets or business strategy. We do not rely on patents or copyrights and, to the extent we maintain trade secrets, we rely on confidentiality agreements to protect them from misappropriation.

GOVERNMENTAL REGULATION

Because of the increasing use of the internet and mobile devices, and the public’s concern for privacy, U.S. and foreign governments have adopted, or may in the future adopt, laws and regulations relating to the internet or use of mobile devices, addressing issues such as user privacy, security, pricing, age verification, content quality, copyrights and distribution techniques. We could become subject to new laws and regulations in various countries that could limit our ability to market our products and to distribute and/or collect user information. These or other laws or regulations that may be enacted in the future could have adverse effects on our business, including higher regulatory compliance costs, limitations on our ability to provide some services in some countries, and liabilities which might be incurred through lawsuits or regulatory penalties. We take steps using industry standard tools such as firewall, VPN, encryption and antivirus to protect the security and confidentiality of the information we collect and store but there is no guarantee that third parties, partners or employees will not gain unauthorized access despite our efforts or that we will not incur costs in complying with our notification obligations under such circumstances.

C. Organizational Structure

Refer to Exhibit 8.1 for a complete list of ZIM subsidiaries.

D. Property, Plants and Equipment

DESCRIPTION OF PROPERTY

Our principal office is located in Ottawa, Canada. ZIM leases an office suite of approximately 3,300 square feet. The lease is currently scheduled to expire in October, 2015.

We believe that our existing facilities are adequate to meet our current needs.

ITEM 5 OPERATING AND FINANCIAL REVIEW AND PROSPECTS

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

Revenue for the fiscal year 2010 was $1,597,465, compared with revenue of $1,831,541 for fiscal year 2009 and $1,990,680 for the fiscal year 2008. The decrease is attributable to the expected decline in revenue from our mobile segment, caused by the continued saturation of the market, coupled with a decline in revenue from our enterprise software segment, which represented a 12.8% decrease in that segment over the prior fiscal year.

Net income for the fiscal year 2010 was $304,767 as compared to $153,513 for the fiscal year 2009 and $82,536 for the fiscal year 2008. The increase in net income principally reflects a reduction in selling and general administrative expenses, a reduction in cost of sales and other income. The reduction in selling and general administrative expenses is mainly related to compensation expense and professional fees due to our change in U.S. reporting status from domestic to foreign filer. We have been reporting as a foreign private issuer since the second quarter of fiscal 2009. Details on the gain in settlement can be found in note 4 of the financial statements.

ZIM had cash and cash equivalents of $1,160,881 at March 31, 2010 as compared to cash and cash equivalents of 640,214 at March 31, 2009. The Company generated a positive cash flow of $520,667 for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2010, mainly as result of normal operations.

A. Operating results

The following is an overview of our operating results for the year ended March 31, 2010. A more detailed discussion of our operating results, comparing our operating results for the years ended March 31, 2010, 2009, and 2008, is included under the heading “Results of Operations for the Year Ended March 31, 2010 Compared to the Year Ended March 31, 2009 and 2008” of this “OPERATING AND FINANCIAL REVIEW AND PROSPECTS”.

Revenues for the year ended March 31, 2010 decreased approximately $0.23 million to approximately $1.60 million from approximately $1.83 million for the year ended March 31, 2009. Revenue from our mobile segment decreased from $0.36 million, to $0.32 million in fiscal 2010. The decrease was due to reduced aggregation traffic from our customer base. This decrease is coupled with a decrease of approximately $187,000 in our software segment. In fiscal 2009, revenue from our mobile segment decreased to $0.4 million from $0.8 million, in fiscal 2008, due to reduced aggregation traffic from our customer base and increased revenue from our software segment of approximately $0.3 million in fiscal 2009.

Total operating expenses for the year ended March 31, 2010 were approximately $1.71 million, a decrease of approximately $0.22 million from operating expenses of $1.93 million for the year ended March 31, 2009 and a decrease of approximately $0.7 million from operating expenses of $2.6 million for the year ended March 31, 2008. The decrease in fiscal 2010 and in fiscal 2009 was attributable to a decrease in costs of revenue relating to the decrease in revenues associated with SMS aggregation, and reduced operating costs as a result of reductions in compensation expense and professional fees.

CURRENT STRATEGIC DIRECTION

Due to the decrease in revenues from SMS aggregation services, we started exploring new opportunities both within the mobile industry and enterprise application industry.

In fiscal 2006, we began offering mobile content, but this is a very competitive business and we do not foresee increasing this business significantly. In fiscal 2007, we expanded into Internet TV. Fiscal 2008 showed an increase in revenue from IPTV over fiscal 2007. However, we did not generate significant revenues within the IPTV space and have not been able to grow the mobile content business. As a result, management of ZIM continues to explore alternative strategies and opportunities within the mobile industries to leverage the existing technology, relationships and expertise. These may include joint ventures or sales of any or all of our assets related to either of these industries. ZIM exited the Internet TV market in fiscal 2009.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

We prepare our consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, which requires management to make certain estimates and apply judgments that affect reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities. We base our estimates and judgments on historical experience, current trends, and other factors that management believes to be important at the time the consolidated financial statements are prepared. Actual results could differ from our estimates, and such differences could be material. On an ongoing basis, management reviews our accounting policies and how they are applied and disclosed in our consolidated financial statements.

The following supplemental information describes significant judgments and estimates involved in our critical accounting policies, which are more fully described in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements included in this annual report.

JUDGMENTS REGARDING TAX POSITIONS

ASC 740 requires that the Company recognize in its financial statements the impact of a tax position if that position is more likely than not of not being sustained on an audit, based on the technical merits of the position. Accordingly, management may be required to make additional judgments regarding the accounting treatment of tax positions.

The Company adopted the provisions of this Interpretation on April 1, 2007. No adjustment was required to the amount of the unrecognized tax benefits.

VALUATION ALLOWANCES

We must make certain estimates and judgments in determining the income tax expense for financial statement purposes. These estimates and judgments occur in the calculation of certain tax assets and liabilities, which arise from differences in the timing of recognition of revenue and expense for tax and financial statement purposes. Judgments regarding realization of deferred tax assets and the ultimate outcome of tax-related contingencies represent key items involved in the determination of tax expense and related balance sheet accounts. We have currently recorded a valuation allowance to reduce our deferred tax assets to the amount that is more likely than not to be realized. Should we determine that based on factors such as future profitability, a reduction in the valuation allowance is appropriate, an adjustment to our deferred tax assets would increase income in the period such determination was made.

REVENUE RECOGNITION

Revenues shown in the financial statements included with this report have been derived mainly from mobile content sales, IPTV, SMS messaging services, SMS fee-based services, and proprietary software products and licenses. The Company presents revenues net of sales tax and other sales related taxes.

Mobile content and IPTV sales

Mobile content revenues are derived primarily from credit card purchases via the internet or through premium messaging. IPTV revenues are derived from contracts to provide channels and infrastructure services. Revenue is recognized by delivery and acceptance of a download (mobile content) or service (IPTV) to the end users. We recognize revenue when (a) there is persuasive evidence of an arrangement; (b) the service has been provided to the customer; (c) the amount of the fees to be paid by the customer is fixed and determinable; and (d) the collection of the fees is reasonably assured.

Premium messaging and SMS fee-based services

SMS premium messaging services revenues are derived principally from providing mobile content providers connections to mobile operators and allowing their end users to expand on their SMS capabilities and other services. These services include news and other content subscriptions. Revenues from SMS messaging services are recognized based on fees received from the mobile operator, after all payments to the mobile content providers. Such revenues are recognized by ZIM in the period in which the service is performed, provided that no significant Company obligations remain, the collection of the receivables is reasonably assured and the amounts can be accurately estimated.

We rely on the billing statements from third party mobile operators to record revenues. These statements are reviewed for consistency with internally generated reports. Due to the time lag of receiving billing statements from third-party mobile operators, revenues in any period may have to be estimated based on our internal billing records and transmissions, adjusting for prior period confirmation rates with mobile operators and prior period discrepancies between internally estimated revenues and actual revenues confirmed by mobile operators. We apply confirmation rates based on the average of the recent actual historical rates. To date, there has been no significant adjustment to any estimates. However, our internal judgments may be incorrect in any period, which may result in our recording materially incorrect revenues.

Proprietary software products and licenses sales

ZIM records revenues from the perpetual license of the Company's software products and the sale of related maintenance and consulting. The Company's standard license agreement provides a license to use the Company's products based on the number of licensed users. The Company may license its software in multiple element arrangements if the customer purchases any combination of maintenance, consulting or training services in conjunction with the license.

The Company recognizes revenue pursuant to the requirements of the FASB ASC 605-985 "Software Revenue Recognition" Revenue is recognized using the residual method when Vendor-specific objective evidence of fair value exists for all of the undelivered elements in the arrangement, but does not exist for one or more delivered elements. The Company allocates revenue to each undelivered element based on its respective fair value determined by the price charged when that element is sold separately. The Company defers revenue for the undelivered elements and recognizes the residual amount of the arrangement fee, if any.

STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

ZIM adopted the provisions of ASC 718 (formerly SFAS No. 123(R)) effective April 1, 2006, using the modified-prospective transition method, which requires measurement of compensation cost for all stock-based awards at fair value on the date of grant and recognition of compensation expense over the service period for awards expected to vest. The fair value of stock options is determined using the Black Scholes valuation model and requires judgment in establishing the volatility and option forfeiture rates. These internal judgments may be incorrect in any period, which may result in our recording materially incorrect compensation expense.

Total revenues for the year ended March 31, 2010 were $1,597,465 as compared to $1,831,541 for the year ended March 31, 2009 and $1,990,680 for the year ended March 31, 2008. The decrease in revenues is due to the reduction of our sales in our mobile segment, a trend that we expect to continue in the 2011 fiscal year. As a result, management is exploring strategic alternatives to maximize shareholder value from these assets.

REVENUE ANALYSIS BY SERVICE/PRODUCT OFFERING

MOBILE CONTENT

On April 1, 2006, we acquired AIS and its two Internet portals offering mobile content. As previously mentioned, consumers are able to download ring tones and wallpapers directly from our Internet sites to their mobile phones. Revenue from the sale of mobile content for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2010 was $136,577 as compared to $223,527 for fiscal year ended March 31, 2009 and $422,559 for fiscal year ended March 31, 2008. The decline was due to a highly competitive and saturated market resulting in a lower volume of downloads, partially offset by our pricing increases for these products.

BULK SMS

Our bulk SMS messaging revenue went from $96,290 in fiscal 2008 to $115,823 in fiscal 2009 and to $135,345 in fiscal 2010. We continue to experience more customers using our routes in fiscal 2010, as compared to fiscal 2009 and fiscal 2008, resulting in the increased revenue. In general, bulk messaging customers choose the aggregator that is offering the lowest cost route. As a result, we do not expect that the increased revenues of fiscal 2010 will be indicative of future performance.

In general, bulk messaging customers choose the aggregator that is offering the lowest cost route. Different aggregators are able to negotiate different price points based on the traffic they are able to guarantee to the mobile operators. Due to the size of our competitors, and our competitors’ ability to negotiate better terms, there can be no guarantee that we will have routes that are the most cost effective in the future.

PREMIUM SMS

Our premium SMS messaging revenue went from $202,356 in fiscal 2008 to $3,877 in fiscal 2009 and to $NIL in fiscal 2010. The anomaly of the increase in the fiscal 2008 year is due to the fact that our monthly reconciliation process with one of our suppliers was delayed due to inabilities to obtain the required reports and reconciliations. At the completion of this reconciliation process we had determined we over-accrued the amounts owing by approximately $120,000 and upon receiving the documentation from the supplier on our actual accrued liability we reversed this entry. Since we record revenue for this segment on a net basis, the reversal of this payable generated income in this segment. The actual trend when the above factor is removed is $81,793 in fiscal 2008 to $3,877 in fiscal 2009 and to $NIL in fiscal 2010.

Due to the decreasing margins and competitive nature of our premium SMS revenues, we are not focusing on expanding this area of the business. As a result, we do not expect to see any revenue in our premium SMS messaging revenue for fiscal 2011. As previously disclosed, we believe that the decrease in margins is attributable to the competition in the SMS aggregation market and the dominance of a few key mobile content providers.

OTHER SMS SERVICES AND PRODUCTS

Our other SMS services revenue decreased from $85,679 for the year ended March 31, 2008 to $14,660 for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2009 and increased to $48,862 for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2010. The decrease in 2009 is primarily as a result of eliminating Location Based Services (LBS) and our virtual mobile service. All other products and services are continuing; however we do not consider them part of our core business.

INTERNET TV

During the quarter ended December 31, 2006, we began offering a P2P Internet TV site, www.ZIMtv.biz. Through a user friendly interface on ZIMTV, consumers can watch free and/or pay-per-view channels containing sports, movies, television, news, animation and educational video content. In fiscal 2007, we were in the process of building customers and we allowed customers free trial subscriptions for the premium channels as well.

In fiscal year 2008, we conducted several trials of our live IPTV streaming service with a key customer. It was determined that P2P did not provide acceptable quality standards. As such we discontinued our partnership with PPLive and switched to Windows Media and Flash-based technologies, which resulted in superior results. The trials were paid for by the customer and resulted in approximately $36,300 in revenues in the year ended March 31, 2008 as compared to $7,368 for the year ended March 31, 2007. In 2009, we stopped providing this service to our existing IPTV customer and subsequently exited our IPTV business. Revenues for the year ended March 31, 2009 were $9,836 and ZIM has exited this line of business.

SOFTWARE, MAINTENANCE AND CONSULTING

We generate revenues from the sale of our database product as well as the subsequent maintenance and consulting fees. Software sales increased from $157,310 in fiscal 2008 to $424,855 in fiscal 2009 and decreased to $162,964 in fiscal 2010. During 2009, ZIM delivered one large project contributing significantly to the increase in that fiscal year.

In addition to the sale of the software, we are generating revenue from software maintenance and consulting. Maintenance and consulting revenues have increased slightly from $990,208 in fiscal 2008 to $1,038,963 in fiscal 2009 and to $1,113,717 in fiscal 2010. Most of the maintenance revenue was generated in Brazil as this region represents the largest concentration of users of ZIM’s IDE product.

We will continue to allocate the appropriate resources to the maintenance and development of our database products while we continue to generate revenues from this product line. Although we do not see immediate or significant growth in this segment, we are still committed to serving our existing customers.

Operating expenses continued to decrease from $ $2,550,722 for the year ended March 31, 2008 to $1,928,382 for the year ended March 31, 2009 and to $1,708,718 for the year ended March 31, 2010. The decreases are attributable to a decrease in costs of revenue relating to the decrease in revenues associated with SMS aggregation and lower operating costs related to compensation expenses and professional fees.

COST OF REVENUE

Included in the cost of revenue are costs related to the ZIM IDE sales and costs relating to SMS revenues.

	Year ended	Year ended	Year ended

Gross margin	1,178,229	1,316,673	995,537

Gross margin %	92%	90%	87%

Gross margins for the mobile segment went from 72% in 2008 to 70% in 2009 and to 75% in 2010. However, after accounting for the reversal of an accrual as described earlier, the actual fluctuation in gross margin would be 68% in 2008, 70% in 2009 and 75% in 2010. The increases in gross margins are due to increases in pricing structure and our ability to decrease the cost of revenue.

Gross margins for software, maintenance and consulting sales increased slightly from 87% for the year ended March 31, 2008 to 90% for the year ended March 31, 2009 and to 92% for the year ended March 31, 2010. Included in the cost of revenue for software, maintenance and consulting are salaries relating to supporting the ZIM IDE software and costs for the distribution of the software. The slight increase in gross margins in our software segment relates to slight cost reductions.

SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the years ended March 31, 2010, March 31, 2009 and March 31, 2008 were $1,047,327, $1,213,709 and $1,654,269 respectively. The decreases are primarily attributable to reduced operating costs, reduced staff base and reduced professional fees. The decreases also related to our continued focus on reducing costs.

Management does expect to see some increased expenditures in fiscal 2011 as we improve our internal control over financial reporting.

GAIN ON DISPOSITION OF ASSETS

On July 16, 2007, ZIM Corporation signed an agreement with SilverBirch Inc. to sell certain mobile messaging assets. The assets included ZIM’s Canadian mobile gateway technology, customer contracts and proprietary web to text applications. As consideration for the acquisition, SilverBirch paid $70,395 in cash upon signing the agreement. Additional consideration was to include $93,860 in cash and 500,000 common shares of SilverBirch, valued at approximately $86,292, based on the share price on the date of the sale. The additional consideration was to be received in installments as certain conditions of the purchase were completed, such as the transfer of source codes and customer contracts.

The sale consisted of four parts, each with a distinct value and payment structure:

Short Message Peer to Peer Protocol (SMPP) Platform = approximately $70,395 due upon signing

Pitney Bowes Contract = approximately $52,562 due upon transfer of the contract

Rogers Contract = approximately $41,298 due upon transfer of the contract

Ontario Lottery and Gaming Corporation Contract (OLGC) = 500,000 common shares due upon transfer of the contract

During 2007 the SMPP Platform and the Pitney Bowes contract were transferred and the portion of the sale related to these items has been recognized as a gain on sale of assets. Prior to transfer of the Rogers contract, Rogers terminated its use of the desk top text services provided under the contract with the result that the contract was not transferred. A portion of the Rogers contract value, in the amount of $16,605, was received and has been recognized, as non-refundable cash towards this portion of the contract. The agreement provides that, in the event that the remaining conditions are not met, the amounts paid and the assets transferred to date, based on the conditions that have been met, will not be returned. The amount of the Rogers contract that will not be realized is $24,693.

As of March 31, 2008, OLGC informed ZIM and SilverBirch that it would not consent to the transfer of their contract to SilverBirch. Consequently this contract remains with ZIM until its completion and the 500,000 common shares of SilverBirch will not be paid to ZIM.

GAIN ON SETTLEMENT OF LIABILITY

During fiscal 2008, after a two-year period, ZIM abandoned its efforts to locate a supplier which, according to internal estimates of the Company, was owed an amount of $77,385. Management is of the opinion that it made every reasonable effort to contact this supplier, and since the statute of limitations for this liability expired December 31, 2007 the Company de-recognized the accrued liability to this supplier and recorded a gain on settlement of liabilities.

INTEREST

For the years ended March 31, 2008 and 2007, we incurred interest expense on the debt held by our Chief Executive Officer and on our operating line of credit with the Royal Bank of Canada. Both debts incurred interest at prime plus 1.75% per annum. Offsetting this interest expense was interest income received from the Canadian tax authority on our investment tax credit returns and interest income on our surplus cash held in Brazil.

For the years ended March 31, 2010 and March 31, 2009, we did not incur any interest expense on the debt held by our Chief Executive Officer and on our operating line of credit with the Royal Bank of Canada as there were no draws on these facilities in fiscal 2009.

INCOME TAXES

Included in income taxes are taxes paid on revenues earned in Brazil net of investment tax credits on research and development expenditures in Canada. The decrease in income taxes recoverable is due to research and development tax credits received in the 2009 fiscal year relating to prior years being less than prior year tax credits received in fiscal 2008.

The Scientific Research and Development Credits received from the Canadian federal government were assessed as filed.

B.	Liquidity and Capital Resources

At March 31, 2010, we had cash and cash equivalents of $1,160,881 and working capital of $1,276,874 as compared to cash of $640,214 and working capital of $705,856 at March 31, 2009. As at March 31, 2008, we had cash and cash equivalents of $299,943 and working capital of $545,568.

Cash flows for the fiscal periods were as follows:

	Year ended March 31, 2010	Year ended March 31, 2009	Year ended March 31, 2008
	$	$	$
Cash flows provided by (used in) operating activities	417,595	430,652	(315,458)
Cash flows provided by (used in) investing activities	(101,221)	(19,334)	137,139
Cash flows provided by financing activities	-	-	48,260

Operating activities generated $417,595 of cash for the year ended March 31, 2010 as compared to generating cash of $430,652 for the year ended March 31, 2009 and consuming $315,458 during the year ended March 31, 2008. The decrease in cash generated arose as a result of an increase in accounts receivable and investment tax credits.

We used $101,220 in fiscal 2010, $19,334 in fiscal 2009 and received $137,139 in fiscal 2008 of cash from investing activities. In fiscal 2010, the cash used mainly related to our equity investment in Seregon Solutions Inc. as described in Note 5 of the financial statements. In fiscal 2009 the $19,334 was used mainly for the purchase of computer hardware.

During both 2008 and 2007, we made draw downs under the credit facility provided by ZIM’s Chief Executive Officer and controlling shareholder. Both of these draws were repaid in full through shares. As at June 24, 2009, the outstanding balance due under the credit facility, including principal and interest, was $NIL. During fiscal 2009, the largest aggregate balance under the facility was $NIL. In fiscal 2008, we paid the CEO $99,980 in principal and $3,605 in interest on advances we received under the facility by issuing 7,398,912 units, each consisting of one common share and one warrant to purchase a common share for $0.014, through the conversion of debt and accumulated interest in the amount of $103,585. The units were priced at $0.014 per unit, which represented the closing market price of ZIM’s common stock on the OTCBB on December 3, 2007. The warrants expired on March 3, 2009.

At March 31, 2010, the Company had access to a line of credit for approximately $492,223 from its Chief Executive Officer and a working capital line from its principal banker for approximately $49,222 (refer to Note 10 “Line of Credit” on the financial statements), in addition to a cash and cash equivalent balance of $1,160,881. Management believes that these funds, together with cash from on-going operations, will be sufficient to fund existing operations for the next 12 months. However, there is no guarantee that unanticipated circumstances will not require additional liquidity, and in any event, these funds alone may not allow for any additional expenditures or growth.

Credit terms for software, maintenance and consulting services have remained consistent from prior periods at 30 days.

As at March 31, 2010, approximately 74% of all related receivables are current. As at March 31, 2009, approximately 89% of all related receivables are current. As at March 31, 2008, 83% of all receivables were current.

Cash and cash equivalents of $1,160,881 are comprised of $175,660 cash and $985,221 cash equivalents. The cash equivalents of $985,221 at March 31, 2010 ($485,754 at March 31, 2009) are comprised of:

Held in Canada:

Renaissance High Interest Savings at 0.70% - $198,211 ($201,343 CDN) – No Maturity

Altimara High Interest Cash Performer at 0.20% - $50,021 – No Maturity

Held in Brazil:

Bank Deposit Certificate (CDB) at 8% per annum plus inflation - $736,989 - No Maturity. Of these deposits R$60,000 are secured by Government Deposit Insurance.

Future liquidity and cash requirements will depend on a wide range of factors, including the level of success the Company has in executing its strategic plan as well as its ability to maintain business in existing operations and its ability to raise additional financing. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that ZIM will be able to meet its working capital needs for any future period. In addition, the Company has an accumulated deficit of $20,930,327. The Company also has generated negative cash flows from operations during two of the previous five fiscal years.

If ZIM’s expenses surpass the funds available or if ZIM requires additional expenditures to grow the business, the Company may be unable to obtain the necessary funds and ZIM may have to curtail or suspend some or all of its business operations, which would likely have a material adverse effect on its business relationships, financial results, financial condition and prospects, as well as on the ability of shareholders to recover their investment.

RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by the FASB or other standards setting bodies that are adopted by the Company as of the specified effective date. Unless otherwise discussed, the Company’s management believes that the impact of recently issued standards that are not yet effective will not have any significant impact on the consolidated financial statements upon adoption.

ASC 105:

In June 2009, the FASB issued the ASC 105 “Accounting Standards Codification”, or Codification. All existing accounting standard documents were superceded by the Codification and the Codification became the source of all authoritative generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, except for rules and interpretive releases from the SEC, which are still sources of authoritative GAAP for SEC registrants. All guidance contained in the Codification carries an equal level of authority. All other non-grandfathered, non-SEC accounting literature not included in the Codification has become non-authoritative. The Codification is effective for interim and annual periods ending after September 15, 2009, and ZIM began using the new guidelines and numbering systems prescribed by the Codification when referring to GAAP during the period ended September 30, 2009. As the Codification was not intended to change or alter existing GAAP, it did not have any impact on ZIM’s financial position or results of operations.

ASC 320-10:

In April 2009, the FASB issued ASC 320-10, "Recognition and Presentation of Other-Than-Temporary Impairments", to change the method for determining whether an other-than-temporary impairment exists for debt securities and the amount of an impairment charge to be recorded in earnings. ASC 320-10 also requires enhanced disclosures, including the Company's methodology and key inputs used for determining the amount of credit losses recorded in earnings. ZIM adopted ASC 320-10 during the quarter ended June 30, 2009 and the adoption had no impact on ZIM’s financial position or results of operations.

ASC 605-25:

In October 2009, the FASB issued ASU No. 2009-13, “Revenue Recognition - Multiple-Deliverable Revenue Arrangements,” which amends guidance in ASC 605-25, “Revenue Recognition: Multiple-Element Arrangements.” The guidance will allow companies to allocate arrangement consideration in multiple deliverable arrangements in a manner that better reflects the transaction’s economics. It also provides principles and application guidance on whether multiple deliverables exist, how the arrangement should be separated, and the consideration allocated. It also requires an entity to allocate revenue in an arrangement using estimated selling prices of deliverables if a vendor does not have vendor-specific objective evidence or third-party evidence of the selling price. The guidance eliminates the use of the residual method, requires entities to allocate revenue using the relative-selling-price method and significantly expands the disclosure requirements for multiple-deliverable revenue arrangements.

The authoritative guidance requires new and expanded disclosures and is applied prospectively to revenue arrangements entered into or materially modified in fiscal years beginning on or after June 15, 2010 or retrospectively for all periods presented. ZIM will adopt the authoritative guidance on April 1, 2011. Management is currently assessing the impact of the adoption of this authoritative guidance will have, if any, on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

ASC 805

On April 1, 2009, the FASB issued an amendment to ASC 805, “Business Combinations.” The amendment was issued to address application issues regarding accounting and disclosure provisions for contingencies. The guidance also provides Statement 141R’s subsequent accounting guidance for contingent assets and liabilities recognized at the acquisition date and amends the disclosure requirements for contingencies. The FSP applies prospectively to business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after the beginning of the first annual reporting period beginning on or after December 15, 2008. ZIM will adopt and utilize the methods stipulated in ASU 805 for all future transactions of this nature.

ASC 825 - 10:

In April 2009, the FASB issued ASC 825-10, "Interim Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments", which requires public entities to disclose in their interim financial statements the fair value of all financial instruments within the scope of FASB Statement No. 107, "Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments", as well as the method(s) and significant assumptions used to estimate the fair value of those financial instruments. ZIM adopted the provisions of ASC 825-10 by including the required additional financial statement disclosures for its first quarter ended June 30, 2009. The adoption of ASC 825-10 had no financial impact on ZIM’s financial position or results of operations.

ASC 855 - 10:

In May 2009, the FASB issued ASC 855-10, "Subsequent Events". ASC 855-10 introduces the concept of financial statements being available to be issued and requires disclosure of the date through which an entity has evaluated subsequent events and the basis for that date. ASC 855-10 is effective for interim and annual reporting periods ending after June 15, 2009. ZIM adopted ASC 855-10 effective September 30, 2009 and included the required disclosure in Note 15 - "Subsequent Events". ASC 855-10 did not have a material impact on ZIM’s financial position or results of operations.

In February 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-9, “Subsequent Events (Topic 855) Amendments to Certain Recognition and Disclosure Requirements”. ASU 2010-9 amends disclosure requirements within subtopic 855-10. An entity that is an SEC filer is not required to disclose the date through which subsequent events have been evaluated. This change alleviates potential conflicts between Subtopic 855-10 and the SEC's requirements. ASU 2010-9 is effective for interim and annual periods ending after June 15, 2010. The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU 2010-09 to have a material impact on its consolidated results of operations or financial position.

ASC 985 - 605:

In October 2009, the FASB issued ASU No. 2009-14, “Certain Revenue Arrangements that Include Software Elements,” which amends guidance in ASC 985-605, “Software,” which focuses on determining which arrangements are included or excluded from the scope of existing software revenue guidance under ASC 985. This guidance removes non-software components of tangible products and certain software components of tangible products from the scope of the existing software revenue guidance, resulting in the recognition of revenue similar to that for other tangible products. The authoritative guidance may be applied prospectively to revenue arrangements entered into or materially modified in fiscal years beginning on or after June 15, 2010 or retrospectively for all arrangements in the period presented. ZIM will adopt the authoritative guidance on April 1, 2011. Management is currently assessing the impact of the adoption of this authoritative guidance will have, if any, on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

ASU 2010-17:

In April 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2010-17 (ASU 2010-17), “Revenue Recognition-Milestone Method (Topic 605): Milestone Method of Revenue Recognition”. The amendments in this Update are effective on a prospective basis for milestones achieved in fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning on or after June 15, 2010. Early adoption is permitted. If a vendor elects early adoption and the period of adoption is not the beginning of the entity’s fiscal year, the entity should apply the amendments retrospectively from the beginning of the year of adoption. The Company does not expect the provisions of ASU 2010-17 to have a material effect on the financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.

C.	Research and development

Research and development expenses went from $512,287 for the year ended March 31, 2008 to $457,979 for the year ended March 31, 2009 and to $482,629 for the year ended March 31, 2010. The decrease in fiscal 2009 relates to a decrease in staff. The increase in fiscal 2010 relates to use of an additional contract employee and the effects of a weaker US dollar as compared to the Canadian dollar.

D.	Trend information

The Company has not identified and is not aware of any trends that will have a significant impact on its consolidated financial position, statement of operations or cash flows.

E.	Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

The Company has no off balance sheet arrangements as of March 31, 2010.

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

Compensation Discussion and Analysis

Philosophy

We design all of our compensation programs to retain and as necessary attract key employees who are motivated to achieve growth in technology. Our program has been kept simple due to the size of our staff and our lack of performance measurements. Our programs are designed to reward performance based on team and individual performances. Due to the size of our organization, our executive compensation programs impact all employees because these programs help establish expectations for our general approach to rewards. The Company encourages our business leaders to work together to create a high performance environment that is reinforced by constant attention to individual’s goals and expectations.

We believe that the performance of the executives in managing our company should be considered in light of general economic and specific company, industry and competitive conditions. We believe that our compensation programs for our executives should reflect our success as a management team and in attaining an increased value for shareholders. We also believe that individual performance should be evaluated annually and considered in compensation decisions.

Overview of Compensation and Process

Elements of compensation for our executives include: salary and stock option grants and health, disability and life insurance. Our Compensation Committee consists of Messrs. Stechyson and Houck. It generally meets as required to review any changes to the compensation plans for the next year. In fiscal 2010, there were no changes to the plan, no bonuses and no changes to the salary levels for executives, and as a result, there were no Compensation Committee meetings.

Due to the size of the organization, the Compensation Committee is aware of all the elements of each executive’s total compensation over each of the past three years, as well as a comparison to the compensation of other executive officers in an appropriate market comparison group. Typically, our Chief Executive Officer recommends compensation changes with respect to the executive officers who report to him. The Chief Executive Officer has no salary so there have been no compensation recommendations to the compensation committee with respect to him. All option grants to the executives in the organization are approved by our Board of Directors at the time of grant. The Compensation Committee has the authority to accept or adjust any recommendations.

We choose to pay each element of compensation in order to attract and retain the necessary executive talent, reward annual performance and provide incentive for their balanced focus on long-term strategic goals as well as short-term performance. The amount of each element of compensation is determined by or under the direction of the Compensation Committee, which uses the following factors to determine the amount of salary and other benefits to pay each executive:

·	performance in the previous year;

·	difficulty of achieving desired results in the coming year;

·	value of their unique skills and capabilities to performance of the Company;

·	performance of their general management responsibilities; and

·	contribution as a member of the management team.

These elements fit into our overall compensation objectives by helping to secure the future potential of our operations, facilitating our entry into new markets, providing proper compliance and regulatory guidance, and helping to create a cohesive team.

Our policy for allocating between long-term and currently paid compensation is to ensure adequate base compensation to attract and retain personnel, while providing stock option incentives to maximize long-term value for our Company.

Base Salary and Bonus

It is the goal of the Compensation Committee to establish salary compensation for our executive officers based on our comparable peer companies. We believe that this gives us the opportunity to attract and retain appropriate managerial employees both at the senior executive level and below.

Management incentive plans for our Vice President of Sales and our Vice President of Business Development were changed in fiscal 2009. Their base salary was reduced by $50,000 per year in Canadian funds and incentive compensation was established to allow them to earn up to $70,000 per year in Canadian funds. For the fiscal year ended March 31, 2010, ZIM retained the management team by offering stock options and through the personal commitment of the team.

Equity Incentives

A significant goal of our compensation is to afford our executives (and employees) an opportunity to participate in our performance through stock option grants. The Compensation Committee considers factors such as the ability for the Company to attract, motivate and retain qualified individuals and to align their success with that of the Company’s Shareholders through the achievement of strategic corporate objectives and creation of shareholder value. The level of equity incentives paid to an individual is based on the individual’s overall experience, responsibility, performance and base salary. Factors also considered are the equity incentives offered for similar positions in the high tech industry and other labor markets in which the Company competes for employees. The Compensation Committee compares remuneration for executive officers of the Company to the remuneration for similar executives in relevant labor markets.

Perquisites

We limit the perquisites that we make available to our executive officers. Our executives are not entitled to any benefits that are not otherwise available to all of our employees.

Post-Employment Compensation

We do not provide pension arrangements or post-retirement health coverage for our executives or employees. Our executive officers are eligible to participate in our registered retirement savings plan.

Summary Compensation Table

The table below provides detailed information on the compensation of the Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, the Vice President of Sales and the Vice President of Business Development of ZIM for services rendered for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2010. No executive officer or employee received compensation in excess of $100,000 for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2010.

ITEM 10. ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

A.	SHARE CAPITAL

Not Applicable.

B.	MEMORANDUM AND ARTICLES OF ASSOCIATION

ZIM was incorporated under the federal laws of Canada on October 17, 2002 in order to purchase ZIM Technologies International Inc. ("ZIM Technologies"), which was formed in 1997 to acquire the software technology now called the ZIM Integrated Development Environment (the "ZIM IDE software"). On February 10, 2004, ZIM purchased UK-based SMS service firms EPL Communications Limited and E-Promotions Limited (together referred to as "EPL"). During the year ended March 31, 2006, EPL was dissolved and all operations were transferred to ZIM Corporation in Canada. ZIM is also the sole shareholder of ZIM Technologies do Brazil Ltda., a company incorporated in Brazil that distributes the ZIM IDE Software, and PCI Merge, Inc., a Florida based holding company with no operations. Until March 31, 2004, ZIM was the sole shareholder of ZIM Technologies, a Canadian federal corporation and the chief operating company of the ZIM group of companies. On April 1, 2004, ZIM Corporation and ZIM Technologies amalgamated into ZIM Corporation. On April 1, 2006, ZIM purchased a US-based mobile content company called Advanced Internet Inc. (“AIS”).

Other Provisions of Articles and By-laws

There are no provisions in the Articles or By-laws:

·	delaying or prohibiting a change in control of our company that operate only with respect to a merger, acquisition or corporate restructuring;

·	discriminating against any existing or prospective holder of shares as a result of such shareholder owning a substantial number of shares;

·	requiring disclosure of share ownership; or

·	governing changes in capital, where such provisions are more stringent than those required by law.

For further details refer to Exhibits:

1.1	Articles of Incorporation of the Registrant (Incorporated by reference to the Registrant's Registration Statement on Form S-4 filed on November 1, 2002 (No. 333-100920))
1.2	By-Laws of the Registrant (Incorporated by reference to the Registrant's Registration Statement on Form S-4 filed on November 1, 2002 (No. 333-100920))

C. MATERIAL CONTRACTS

The Company entered into one material contract, not in the ordinary course of business, during the last two fiscal years ended March 31, 2010. See exhibit 4.16 “Surrender and Conversion Agreement by and between Michael Cowpland and ZIM Corporation dated December 4, 2007.

In the first quarter of fiscal 2010, the Company negotiated an out of court settlement of an unrecognized claim. The full amount of the settlement was $214,961, subject to certain terms. Due to the inherent uncertainty of this contingent gain it was to be recorded at the time funds were received. As of March 31, 2010, $171,400 has been received and has been recorded as gain on settlement for the year ended March 31, 2010. It is uncertain if the remainder of the settlement will be received.

D. EXCHANGE CONTROLS

As of the date hereof, there are no governmental laws, decrees or regulations in Canada on the export or import of capital, or which impose foreign exchange controls or affect the remittance of interest, dividends or other payments to non-resident holders of our common stock, except as described under ITEM 10E “Taxation”.

Except as provided in the Investment Canada Act, which has provisions that restrict the holding of voting shares by non-Canadians, there are no limitations specific to the rights of non-Canadians to hold or vote the Company’s common shares under the laws of Canada or Ontario, or in its charter documents. The following summarizes the principal features of the Investment Canada Act for non-Canadian residents proposing to acquire the Company’s common shares.

This summary is of a general nature only and is not intended to be, and should not be construed to be, legal advice to any holder or prospective holder of the Company’s common shares, and no opinion or representation to any holder or prospective holder of our common shares is hereby made. Accordingly, holders and prospective holders of the Company’s common shares should consult with their own legal advisors with respect to the consequences of purchasing and owning the Company’s common shares.

The Investment Canada Act governs the acquisition of Canadian businesses by non-Canadians. Under the Investment Canada Act, non-Canadian persons or entities acquiring “control” (as defined in the Investment Canada Act) of a corporation carrying on business in Canada are required to either notify, or file an application for review with, Industry Canada, subject to certain statutory exemptions. The relevant Minister may review any transaction which constitutes an acquisition of control of a Canadian business, where the book value of the assets acquired exceeds certain thresholds (which are higher for investors from members of the World Trade Organization, including United States residents, or World Trade Organization member-controlled companies) or where the activity of the business is related to Canada’s cultural heritage or national identity, or where the investment could be injurious to Canada’s national security. For acquisitions of control a business which do not involve a business related to Canada’s cultural heritage or national identity or present national security issues, no change of voting control will be deemed to have occurred, for purposes of the Investment Canada Act, if less than one-third of the voting control of a Canadian corporation is acquired by an investor. Different rules apply to acquisitions of control of businesses related to Canada’s cultural heritage or national identity, or present national security concerns.

If an investment is reviewable under the Investment Canada Act, an application for review in the form prescribed is normally required to be filed with Industry Canada prior to the investment taking place, and the investment may not be implemented until the review has been completed and the Minister responsible for the Investment Canada Act is satisfied that the investment is likely to be of net benefit to Canada. If the Minister is not satisfied that the investment is likely to be of net benefit to Canada, the non-Canadian applicant must not implement the investment, or if the investment has been implemented, may be required to divest itself of control of the Canadian business that is the subject of the investment. Different rules apply if the Minister determines that the investment may be injurious to Canada’s national security. Certain transactions relating to ZIM’s common stock would be exempt from the Investment Canada Act, if they are not found to be potentially injurious to Canada’s national security by the Minister responsible for the Investment Canada Act, including:

·	the acquisition of the Company’s common stock by a person in the ordinary course of that person’s business as a trader or dealer in securities;

the acquisition of control of the Company in connection with the realization of security granted for a loan or other financial assistance and not for a purpose related to the provisions of the Investment Canada Act; and the acquisition of control of the Company by reason of an amalgamation, merger, consolidation or corporate reorganization following which the ultimate direct or indirect control in fact of the Company, through ownership of our common stock, remains unchanged.

These exemptions do not apply to an acquisition of control of a Canadian business that is deemed to be potentially injurious to Canada’s national security.

E. TAXATION

Material Canadian Federal Income Tax Consequences

The following general summary describes the principal Canadian federal income tax consequences applicable to a holder of the Company’s common stock who is a resident of the United States, who is not, will not be and will not be deemed to be a resident of Canada for purposes of the Income Tax Act (Canada) (the “Income Tax Act”) and any applicable tax treaty and who does not use or hold, and is not deemed to use or hold, his common stock in the capital of the Company in connection with carrying on a business in Canada (a “non-resident holder”). This summary applies only to non-resident holders who hold their ZIM common stock as capital property. This summary does not apply to non-resident holders who are financial institutions (within the meaning of the Income Tax Act) or insurers.

This summary is based upon the current provisions of the Income Tax Act, the regulations there under (the “Regulations”), the current publicly announced administrative and assessing policies of the Canada Revenue Agency and the Canada- United States Tax Convention (1980), as amended (the “Treaty”). This summary also takes into account the amendments to the Income Tax Act and the Regulations publicly announced by the Minister of Finance (Canada) prior to the date hereof (the “Tax Proposals”) and assumes that all such Tax Proposals will be enacted in their present form. However, no assurances can be given that the Tax Proposals will be enacted in the form proposed, or at all. This summary is not exhaustive of all possible Canadian federal income tax consequences applicable to a non-resident holder of the Company’s common stock and, except for the foregoing, this summary does not take into account or anticipate any changes in law, whether by legislative, administrative or judicial decision or action, nor does it take into account provincial, territorial or foreign income tax legislation or considerations, which may differ from the Canadian federal income tax consequences described herein.

This summary is of a general nature only and is not intended to be, and should not be construed to be, legal, business or tax advice to any particular holder or prospective holder of ZIM’s common stock, and no opinion or representation with respect to the tax consequences to any holder or prospective holder of the Company’s common stock is made. Accordingly, holders and prospective holders of the Company’s common stock should consult their own tax advisors with respect to the income tax consequences of purchasing, owning and disposing of ZIM’s common stock in their particular circumstances.

Dividends

Dividends paid on the Company’s common shares to a non-resident holder will be subject under the Income Tax Act to withholding tax which tax is deducted at source by the Company. The withholding tax rate for dividends prescribed by the Income Tax Act is 25% but this rate may be reduced under the provisions of an applicable tax treaty. Under the Treaty, the withholding tax rate is reduced to 15% on dividends paid by the Company to a resident of the United States who is the beneficial owner of such dividend and is eligible to benefits under the Treaty. The rate is further reduced to 5% where the beneficial owner of the dividend is a corporation resident in the United States that is eligible for benefits under the Treaty and that owns at least 10% of the voting stock of the Company.

Capital Gains

A non-resident, of Canada, holder is not subject to tax under the Income Tax Act in respect of a capital gain realized upon the disposition of a common share of the Company unless such share is (or is deemed to be) “taxable Canadian property” (as defined in the Income Tax Act) of the non-resident holder. In the case of a non-resident holder resident in the United States who is eligible for benefits under the Treaty and for whom stock of the Company are taxable Canadian property, no Canadian taxes will generally be payable on a capital gain realized on such stock by reason of the Treaty unless the value of such stock is derived principally from real property situated in Canada.

United States Federal Income Tax Consequences

The following is a general discussion of the material United States federal income tax consequences, under current law, generally applicable to a U.S. Holder (as hereinafter defined) of common shares of the Company. This discussion does not address individual consequences to persons subject to special provisions of federal income tax law, such as those described below as excluded from the definition of a U.S. Holder. In addition, this discussion does not cover any state, local or foreign tax consequences. (See “Material Canadian Federal Income Tax Consequence”).

The following discussion is based upon the sections of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), Treasury Regulations, published Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) rulings, published administrative positions of the IRS and court decisions that are currently applicable, any or all of which could be materially and adversely changed, possibly on a retroactive basis, at any time. This discussion does not consider the potential effects, both adverse and beneficial, of any recently proposed legislation which, if enacted, could be applied, possibly on a retroactive basis, at any time. This discussion is for general information only and it is not intended to be, nor should it be construed to be, legal or tax advice to any holder or prospective holder of common shares of the Company and no opinion or representation with respect to the United States federal income tax consequences to any such holder or prospective holder is made. Accordingly, holders and prospective holders of common shares of the Company are urged to consult their own tax advisors about the federal, state, local, and foreign tax consequences of purchasing, owning and disposing of common shares of the Company.

U.S. Holders

As used herein, a “U.S. Holder” means a holder of common shares of the Company who is a citizen or individual resident of the United States, a corporation or partnership created or organized in or under the laws of the United States or of any political subdivision thereof or a trust whose income is taxable in the United States irrespective of source. This summary does not address the tax consequences to, and U.S. Holder does not include, persons subject to specific provisions of federal income tax law, such as tax-exempt organizations, qualified retirement plans, individual retirement accounts and other tax-deferred accounts, financial institutions, insurance companies, real estate investment trusts, regulated investment companies, broker-dealers, non-resident alien individuals, persons or entities that have a “functional currency” other than the U.S. dollar, shareholders who hold common shares as part of a straddle, hedging or a conversion transaction, and shareholders who acquired their common shares through the exercise of employee stock options or otherwise as compensation for services. This summary is limited to U.S. Holders who own common shares as capital assets. This summary does not address the consequences to a person or entity holding an interest in a shareholder or the consequences to a person of the ownership, exercise or disposition of any options, warrants or other rights to acquire common shares.

Distribution on Common Shares of the Company

U.S. Holders receiving dividend distributions (including constructive dividends) with respect to common shares of the Company are required to include in gross income for United States federal income tax purposes the gross amount of such distributions equal to the U.S. dollar value of such dividends on the date of receipt (based on the exchange rate on such date) to the extent that the Company has current or accumulated earnings and profits, without reduction for any Canadian income tax withheld from such distributions. Such Canadian tax withheld may be credited, subject to certain limitations, against the U.S. Holder’s federal income tax liability or, alternatively, may be deducted in computing the U.S. Holder’s federal taxable income by those who itemize deductions. (See more detailed discussion at “Foreign Tax Credit” below). To the extent that distributions exceed current or accumulated earnings and profits of the Company, they will be treated first as a return of capital up to the U.S. Holder’s adjusted basis in the common shares and thereafter as gain from the sale or exchange of the common shares. Preferential tax rates for long-term capital gains are applicable to a U.S. Holder which is an individual, estate or trust. There are currently no preferential tax rates for long-term capital gains for a U.S. Holder which is a corporation.

Foreign Tax Credit

A U.S. Holder who pays (or has withheld from distributions) Canadian income tax with respect to the ownership of common shares of the Company may be entitled, at the option of the U.S. Holder, to either receive a deduction or a tax credit for such foreign tax paid or withheld. Generally, it will be more advantageous to claim a credit because a credit reduces United States federal income taxes on a dollar-for-dollar basis, while a deduction merely reduces the taxpayer’s income subject to tax. This election is made on a year-by-year basis and applies to all foreign taxes paid by (or withheld from) the U.S. Holder during that year. There are significant and complex limitations which apply to the credit, among which is the general limitation that the credit cannot exceed the proportionate share of the U.S. Holder’s United States income tax liability that the U.S. Holder’s foreign sources income bears to his or its worldwide taxable income. In the determination of the application of this limitation, the various items of income and deduction must be classified into foreign and domestic sources. Complex rules govern this classification process. In addition, this limitation is calculated separately with respect to specific classes of income such as “passive income,” “high withholding tax interest,” “financial services income,” “shipping income,” and certain other classifications of income.

Dividends distributed by the Company will generally constitute “passive income” or, in the case of certain U.S. Holders, “financial services income” for these purposes. The availability of the foreign tax credit and the application of the limitations on the credit are fact specific, and U.S. Holders of common shares of the Company should consult their own tax advisors regarding their individual circumstances.

Disposition of Common Shares of the Company

A U.S. Holder will recognize gain or loss upon the sale of common shares of the Company equal to the difference, if any, between (i) the amount of cash plus the fair market value of any property received, and (ii) the shareholder’s tax basis in the common shares of the Company. Preferential tax rates apply to long-term capital gains of U.S. Holders who are individuals, estates or trusts. This gain or loss will be capital gain or loss if the common shares are a capital asset in the hands of the U.S. Holder, which will be long-term capital gain or loss if the common shares of the Company are held for more than one year.

Other Considerations

In the following circumstances, the above sections of this discussion may not describe the United States federal income tax consequences resulting from the holding and disposition of common shares:

Controlled Foreign Company

If more than 50% of the voting power of all classes of shares or the total value of the shares of the Company is owned, directly or indirectly, by citizens or residents of the United States, United States domestic partnerships and corporations or estates or trusts other than foreign estates or trusts, each of whom own 10% or more of the total combined voting power of all classes of shares of the Company (“United States shareholder”), the Company could be treated as a “controlled foreign corporation” under Subpart F of the Code. This classification would affect many complex results one of which is the inclusion of certain income of a (“CFC”) which is subject to current U.S. tax.

The United States generally taxes a United States shareholder of a CFC currently on their pro rata shares of the Subpart F income of the CFC. Such U.S. shareholders are generally treated as having received a current distribution out of the CFC’s Subpart F income and are also subject to current U.S. tax on their pro rata shares of the CFC’s earnings invested in U.S. property. The foreign tax credit described above may reduce the U.S. tax on these amounts. In addition, under Section 1248 of the Code, gain from the sale or exchange of shares by a U.S. Holder of common shares of the Company who is or was a United States shareholder at any time during the five-year period ending with the sale or exchange is treated as ordinary income to the extent of earnings and profits of the Company attributable to the shares sold or exchanged. If a foreign corporation is both a “passive foreign investment company” (“PFIC”) and a CFC, the foreign corporation generally will not be treated as a PFIC with respect to United States shareholders of the CFC.

This rule generally will be effective for taxable years of United States shareholders beginning after 1997 and for taxable years of foreign corporations ending with or within such taxable years of United States shareholders. Special rules apply to United States shareholders who are subject to the special taxation rules under Section 1291 discussed above with respect to a PFIC. Because of the complexity of Subpart F, and because it is not clear that Subpart F would apply to U.S. Holders of common shares of the Company, a more detailed review of these rules is outside of the scope of this discussion.

QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

FOREIGN EXCHANGE RISK

The Company operates internationally, giving rise to significant exposure to market risks from changes in foreign exchange rates. The Company’s financial assets are in the form of cash and cash equivalents held at institutions with high quality credit ratings. A hypothetical 10% change in the value of one Brazilian real expressed in U.S. dollars during the year ended March 31, 2010 would have caused an approximate $91,858 change in the Company’s revenue for the fiscal year 2010. The Company is exposed to exchange risk due to the following financial instruments denominated in foreign currencies:

Cash includes the following amounts in their source currency:

	March 31, 2010	March 31, 2009	March 31, 2008

Canadian dollars	270,302	195,128	67,532
US dollars	22,724	24,089	48,383
Brazilian reals	1,522,507	1,044,602	297,311
British pounds	5,980	4,425	4,569
Euros	5,643	993	4,198

Accounts receivable include the following amounts receivable in their source currency:

	March 31, 2010	March 31, 2009	March 31, 2008

Canadian dollars	37,566	31,455	51,702
US dollars	102,627	62,944	33,092
Brazilian reals	133,052	147,730	139,328
British pounds	834	589	14,689
Euros	6,521	2,953	7,387

Accounts payable include the following amounts payable in their source currency:

	March 31, 2010	March 31, 2009	March 31, 2008

Canadian dollars	9,079	1,798	7,114
US dollars	2,772	3,801	5,298
Brazilian reals	26,964	27,317	23,210
British pounds	-	166	-
Euros	-	-	10,469

Accrued liabilities include the following accruals in their source currency:

	March 31, 2010	March 31, 2009	March 31, 2008

Canadian dollars	29,202	35,789	96,261
US dollars	6,622	10,247	10,013
Brazilian reals	21,694	18,747	31,812
British pounds	-	-	238

The Company does not enter into any derivative financial instruments to partially cover the foreign exchange risk.

CREDIT RISK

The Company is exposed to credit-related losses in the event of non-performance by counterparties to financial instruments. Credit exposure is minimized by dealing with only creditworthy counterparties in accordance with established credit approval policies.

Concentrations of credit risk in accounts receivable are indicated below by the percentage of the total balance receivable from customers in the specified geographic area:

	March 31, 2010	March 31, 2009	March 31, 2008

Canada	16%	16%	25%
North America, excluding Canada	46%	40%	29%
South America	33%	41%	39%
Great Britain	1%	1%	1%
Europe, excluding Great Britain	4%	2%	6%
	100%	100%	100%

FAIR VALUE

The carrying values of cash, accounts receivable, investment tax credits receivable, line of credit, accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate their fair value due to the relatively short periods to maturity of the instruments.

KEY PERSONNEL RISK

We are a small company with 14 full-time employees as of March 31, 2010, and we depend to a great extent on principal members of our management staff. If we lose the services of any key personnel, in particular Dr. Michael Cowpland, our President and Chief Executive Officer, the loss could significantly impede the achievement of our research and development objectives and delay our product development programs and commercialization of our product candidates. We do not currently have any key man life insurance policies.

CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We are required to maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information that we are required to disclose in the reports we file under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, as ours are designed to do.

Our management, under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2010. Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective due to the material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting described below related to our financial reporting processes and information technology security protocols.

Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate control over financial reporting, as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f). Our internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief executive Officer and Chief Financial officer, we concluded an evaluation of effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of March 31, 2020 based on the criteria established in Internal Control – Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). This evaluation concluded that our controls are inadequate.

Our principal deficiency was inadequate staffing and supervision that could lead to the untimely identification and resolution of accounting and disclosure matters. Other significant deficiencies that contributed to the material weakness were:

·	Inadequate segregation of duties and cross training;

·	Continued reliance on manual systems to account for revenue and expenses; and

·	Weaknesses in third party billing systems for the Ringingphone.com and Monstertones.com databases with respect to the relationship between recurring payment processing and account updates.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

We are taking steps to make the necessary improvements to remedy these deficiencies. We have implemented certain remedial measures and are in the process of designing and implementing additional measures to remedy the material weakness. These include the following:

1.	Our inadequate staffing and supervision is being addressed by reduction of workload through process optimization and documentation.

To mitigate the weaknesses in third party billing systems for the Ringingphone.com and Monstertones.com databases, we have arranged to receive notice when customers cancel through one of the third party billing services. This notification is forwarded to Technical Support to ensure that the account was properly cancelled. We are reactive to these matters as they occur, but due to lack of resources we are limited in our ability to be proactive.

We intend to continue to improve our internal controls; however, our small size and financial resources continue to prevent us from being able to employ sufficient resources to enable us to have adequate segregation of duties within our internal control system. Management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit.

This annual report does not include an attestation report of the Company’s registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by the Company’s registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit the Company to provide only management’s report in this annual report.

ITEM 16A.

AUDIT COMMITTEE FINANCIAL EXPERT

Our Board of Directors has determined that we have a least one audit committee financial expert serving on the audit committee. Mr. Donald Gibbs, a member of the audit committee, is an audit committee financial expert and “independent” as that term is defined in the NASDAQ Listing Rules.

Mr. Gibbs is a consultant and presently serves on the Board of AirIQ. From April 2007, to June 2008, Mr. Gibbs was the Chief Executive Officer of Tarquin Inc. Since July of 2004, Mr. Gibbs has been the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Process Photonics Inc. From June 2001 to April 2004, Mr. Gibbs was the President and Chief Executive Officer of Original Solutions Inc. He is also the principal of his own consulting company, Donald R Gibbs and Associates which provides financial and management assistance to start-up corporations. Since 1970, Mr. Gibbs has held senior financial and executive positions in Mitel Corporation, Cognos Inc., Gandalf Systems Corporation, Positron Fiber Systems Inc., Gorilla Capital Inc., VIPswitch Inc. and Original Solutions Inc. Mr. Gibbs received his Bachelor of Commerce degree from the University of Ottawa and holds a professional designation as a Certified Management Accountant.

ITEM 16B.

CODE OF ETHICS

Our Board of Directors has adopted a code of conduct and ethics that applies to our directors, officers, employees and agents, including certain provisions that specifically apply to our Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, Vice Presidents and any other persons who perform similar functions for us. Our code of business conduct and ethics is posted on our website at www.ZIM.biz. We hereby undertake to provide to any person without charge, a copy of our code of business conduct and ethics within ten working days after we receive such person’s written request.

ITEM 16C.

PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTANT FEES AND SERVICES

During the most recent three fiscal year ends, we were billed for audit, audit-related, tax and other services provided by our Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm, Raymond Chabot Grant Thornton LLP, as follows:

	Year ended March 31, 2010	Year ended March 31, 2009	Year ended March 31, 2008
Audit fees	73,029	84,597	131,515
Audit-Related Fees	5,971	-	-
Tax fees	9,645	9,264	9,742
All Other Fees	-	-	-
Total	88,645	93,861	141,257

The reduction in the fees as stated above is a result in a change in ZIM filing as a foreign private issuer as opposed to a domestic filer.

Audit Fees. Audit fees were for professional services rendered for the audits of ZIM’s consolidated financial statements and internal control over financial reporting and services that generally only the independent auditor can reasonably provide, such as comfort letters, consents and assistance and review of documents filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Audit-Related Fees. Audit-related fees were for assurance and related services that are reasonably related to the performance of the audit or review of ZIM’s consolidated financial statements and are not reported under Audit Fees above. These services included consultations concerning financial accounting and reporting standards, as well as review and comment to the Company’s responses to inquiry letters received from the different securities and state commissions in the U.S..

Tax Fees. Tax fees were for tax compliance, tax advice and tax planning. These services included the preparation of the Canadian and subsidiaries’ income tax returns in the respective jurisdictions, assistance with questions regarding tax audits from the various taxation authorities in Canada and tax planning relating to common forms of domestic and international taxation (i.e. income tax, capital tax and excise tax).

All Other Fees. All other fees were for services provided other than the audit fees, audit-related fees and tax fees described above. No such fees have been billed in the last three years.

All audit and tax fees are estimated by the Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm and approved by the audit committee before they are performed. There were no significant differences between the approved estimates and final fees for fiscal years 2008, 2009 and 2010.

The audit committee's policy is to pre-approve all audit and permissible non-audit services provided by the Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm. These services may include audit services, audit-related services, tax services and other services. The policy prohibits retention of the Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm to perform the prohibited non-audit functions defined in section 201 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 or the rules of the SEC, and also considers whether proposed services are compatible with the independence of the public auditors. Pre-approval is detailed as to the particular service or category of services and is generally subject to a specific budget. The Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm and management are required to periodically report to the Audit Committee regarding the extent of services provided by the Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm in accordance with this pre-approval and the fees for the services performed to date.

ITEM 18.

FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

Board of Directors and Shareholders of ZIM Corporation

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of ZIM Corporation and subsidiaries as of March 31, 2010 and 2009 and the related consolidated statements of operations, shareholders' equity and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended March 31, 2010. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our 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. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of ZIM Corporation and subsidiaries as of March 31, 2010 and 2009 and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended March 31, 2010 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

1 - NATURE OF OPERATIONS

COMPANY OVERVIEW

ZIM Corporation (“ZIM” or the “Company”) is a provider of software products and services for the database and mobile markets. ZIM products and services are used by enterprises in the design, development and management of business, database and mobile applications. ZIM also provides mobile content to the consumer market.

BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT

ZIM was formed under the laws of Canada on October 17, 2002 in order to purchase ZIM Technologies International Inc. (“ZIM Technologies”), which was formed in 1997 to acquire the software technology now called the ZIM Integrated Development Environment (the “ZIM IDE software”). On February 10, 2004, ZIM purchased UK-based short messaging service (“SMS”) firms EPL Communications Limited and E-Promotions Limited (together referred to as “EPL”). During the fiscal year ended March 31, 2006, EPL was dissolved and all operations were transferred to ZIM Corporation in Canada. ZIM is also the sole shareholder of ZIM Technologies do Brazil Ltda., a company incorporated in Brazil that distributes the ZIM IDE Software, and PCI Merge, Inc., a Florida based holding company with no operations. Until March 31, 2004, ZIM was the sole shareholder of ZIM Technologies, a Canadian federal corporation and the chief operating company of the ZIM group of companies. On April 1, 2004, ZIM Corporation and ZIM Technologies amalgamated into ZIM Corporation. On April 1, 2006, ZIM purchased a US-based mobile content company called Advanced Internet Inc. (“AIS”).

BUSINESS OF THE COMPANY

Beginning in 2002, the Company expanded its business to include opportunities associated with mobile products. Prior to fiscal 2007, the Company focused on developing products and services for the wireless data network infrastructure known as SMS or text messaging. Although SMS will continue to provide a minimal amount of revenue within the mobile segment of ZIM’s operations, with the acquisition of AIS, the Company shifted its corporate focus to include offering mobile content directly to end users. In fiscal 2008, ZIM added the ZIM TV service and in partnership with the International Table Tennis Federation (“ITTF”) provided development and hosting services for IPTV to ITTF end users. However, due to low sales volumes ZIM exited this market in fiscal 2009.

2 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

BASIS OF PRESENTATION

These consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("US GAAP").

PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION

These consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries, all of which are wholly owned. The results of operations for acquisitions are included in these consolidated financial statements from the date of acquisition. Inter-company transactions and balances are eliminated upon consolidation.

USE OF ESTIMATES

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amount of revenue and expenses during the period. Estimates have been made by management in several areas, including, but not limited to, the realizability of accounts receivable, the valuation allowance associated with deferred income tax assets, investment tax credits, expected useful life of property and equipment, the fair value calculation with respect to the stock options, and the accrued accounts receivable and accrued accounts payable related to our premium SMS business. Actual results may differ from those estimates.

COMPREHENSIVE INCOME (LOSS)

Comprehensive income (loss) includes net loss and other comprehensive income (loss) ("OCI"). OCI refers to changes in net assets from transactions and other events and circumstances other than transactions with shareholders. These changes are recorded directly as a separate component of shareholders' equity and excluded from net income. The only other comprehensive income item for the Company relates to foreign currency translation adjustments relating to the translation of the financial statements from their functional currency into the reporting currency.

ALLOWANCE FOR DOUBTFUL ACCOUNTS

Accounts receivable are recorded at the invoiced amount net of an allowance for doubtful accounts. The Company determines its allowance for doubtful accounts by considering a number of factors, including the age of the receivable, the financial stability of the customer, discussions that may have occurred with the customer and management's judgment as to the overall collectability of the receivable from that customer. The Company writes off accounts receivable when they become uncollectible, and payments subsequently received on such receivables are credited to the allowance for doubtful accounts in the period of recovery.

REVENUE RECOGNITION

The Company derives revenue from two sources: enterprise software, including maintenance and consulting services and mobile services and applications. Enterprise software involves providing enterprise software for designing, developing and manipulating database systems and applications. Mobile services involve providing SMS and other content applications and services. The Company presents revenues net of sales tax and other related taxes.

ENTERPRISE SOFTWARE REVENUE RECOGNITION

The Company recognizes revenue pursuant to the requirements of ASC 605-985 "Software Revenue Recognition". Revenue is recognized using the residual method when Vendor-specific objective evidence of fair value exists for all of the undelivered elements in the arrangement, but does not exist for one or more delivered elements. The Company allocates revenue to each undelivered element based on its respective fair value determined by the price charged when that element is sold separately. The Company defers revenue for the undelivered elements and recognizes the residual amount of the arrangement fee, if any.

Under ASC 605-985, revenue is recognized when the following four criteria have been met:

·	persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists;

·	delivery has occurred;

·	the fee is fixed and determinable; and

·	collectability is probable.

The Company records revenue as earned as evidenced by contracts or invoices for its services at prices established by contract, price list and/or fee schedule less applicable discounts. If at the outset of an arrangement the Company determines that the arrangement fee is not fixed or determinable, revenue is deferred until the arrangement fee becomes due. If at the outset of an arrangement the Company determines that the collectability is not probable, revenue is deferred until payment is received.

Collectability is assessed based on the collection history of the client, current economic trends, customer concentrations and customer credit worthiness. Delivery of the software has occurred once the customer has accepted the product or has been provided with permanent keys to the file transfer protocol ("FTP") site. If an arrangement allows for customer acceptance of the software or services, the Company defers revenue recognition until the earlier of customer acceptance or when the acceptance right lapses.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(EXPRESSED IN US DOLLARS)

MAINTENANCE AND CONSULTING REVENUE RECOGNITION

Maintenance revenues are recognized equally over the term of the maintenance contract. The liability relating to the received but unearned portion of maintenance revenues is recognized as deferred revenues.

Consulting revenue, which represents services provided on a per diem basis to customers, is recognized as the services are performed as there are no customer acceptance provisions involved in these types of arrangements.

In general, credit terms of 30 days are extended to customers.

MOBILE REVENUE RECOGNITION

Revenues from the Company’s mobile segment are derived principally from providing aggregation services and from our mobile content portals.

Aggregation services. Aggregation services occur when ZIM sends messages from its customers through mobile operators to end users on their cell phones. In this situation, the Company contracts with its customers that cannot connect directly to the mobile operators and with the third party mobile operators or other aggregators directly for the transmission of the messages. Net revenues are recognized in the month in which the service is performed, provided no significant ZIM obligations remain. ZIM relies on a number of mobile network operators and other aggregators globally to deliver our services. Generally, (i) within 15 to 45 days after the end of each month, ZIM receives a statement from each of the operators or aggregators confirming the amount of charges billed to that operator's mobile phone users and (ii) within 30 to 90 days after delivering a monthly statement, each operator or aggregator remits the fees for the month to ZIM. ZIM arranges to pay the mobile content provider a set amount per message under a revenue sharing arrangement. ZIM nets this revenue share fee against the revenue it receives from the mobile operators in accordance with ASC 605.

Revenues are recorded on a net basis as the mobile content provider is the primary obligor in the transaction as they manage and market the content, which ZIM then distributes. ZIM’s role within the transaction is limited to providing transportation and a billing mechanism for the mobile content provider.

Mobile content portals. On April 1, 2006 ZIM acquired two internet portals offering mobile content. Consumers are able to download ring tones and wallpapers directly from the internet sites to their mobile phones. The majority of consumers choose to pay for the content with their credit card with the balance of consumers paying through the use of a premium message. If they use a premium message to pay for their content, the charge is paid on their cell phone bill.

Revenues from all sales are recorded on a gross basis as ZIM manages and markets the content ZIM distributes. Revenue on mobile content is recognized at the point of sale, when the customer purchases content from the websites.

RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT EXPENSES

Costs related to research, design and development of products and applications are charged to research and development expense as incurred. Software development costs are capitalized beginning when a product's technological feasibility has been established, which generally occurs upon completion of a working model, and ending when a product is available for general release to customers. All subsequent costs are expensed as incurred. To date, completing a working model of the Company's products and the general release of the products has substantially coincided. The Company has not capitalized any software development costs since such costs have not been significant.

ADVERTISING

Advertising costs are expensed as incurred. Advertising costs amounted to $NIL for the year ended March 31, 2010 ($NIL for the year ended March 31, 2009, $8,586 for the year ended March 31, 2008).

TRANSLATION OF FOREIGN CURRENCIES

The Company's reporting currency is the US dollar and the functional currency is the Canadian dollar.

The accounts of the Company's subsidiaries that are recorded in the Company's functional currency, the Canadian dollar, translate their foreign currency transactions as follows: gains or losses from foreign currency transactions such as those resulting from the settlement of receivables or payables denominated in foreign currency, are translated at the weighted average exchange rates for the period and are included in the statement of operations of the current period. For the years ended March 31, 2010, 2009, and 2008, the Company recognized a foreign exchange loss of $27,167, a foreign exchange loss of $37,655, and a foreign exchange gain of $22,307, respectively, in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.

The translation of the Company's financial statements from the functional currency to its reporting currency is performed as follows: All assets and liabilities are translated into US dollars at the rate of exchange in effect at the balance sheet date. Equity transactions are translated at the exchange rate in effect at the date of the transaction. Revenues, expenses and cash flow amounts are translated at the weighted average exchange rates for the period. The resulting translation adjustments are included in other comprehensive income in shareholders' equity.

INCOME TAXES

Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carry-forwards. When necessary, a valuation allowance is recorded to reduce the tax assets to an amount for which realization is more likely than not. The effect of changes in tax rates is recognized in the period in which the rate change occurs.

ZIM CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(EXPRESSED IN US DOLLARS)

The Company qualifies for scientific research and development expenditures. Refundable investment tax credits are recorded as a reduction of income tax expense when it is more likely than not that the credits will be realized. Other non-refundable investment tax credits not utilized in the current year can be used to offset income taxes in future years.

EARNINGS PER SHARE

Basic earnings per share are computed by dividing net earnings available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the reporting period. Diluted earnings per share are calculated giving effect to the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common shares were exercised or converted to such shares at the later of the beginning of the period or the issuance date. This method is used to determine the dilutive effect of common shares. The treasury stock method is used to determine the dilutive effect of warrants and stock options. The treasury stock method assumes that proceeds received from the exercise of in-the-money share purchase warrants and stock options are used to repurchase common shares at the average market price during the period.

STOCK OPTIONS AND GRANTS

ZIM utilizes the provisions of ASC 718 and ASC 505, which requires measurement of compensation cost for all stock-based awards at fair value on the date of grant and recognition of compensation expense over the service period for awards expected to vest.

The company recognized the following expense relating to stock options and grants:

	Year ended March 31, 2010	Year ended March 31, 2009	Year ended March 31, 2008
	$	$	$
Options compensation expense for employees	72,302	5,905	110,331
Options compensation expense for consultants	8,875	14,315	22,491
Stock grant compensation expense for executive officers	31,007	20,000	-
Total expense	112,184	40,220	132,822

All options granted vested on the day of the grant resulting in the Company not having any non-vested awards as of March 31, 2010, March 31, 2009 or March 31, 2008.

The fair value of stock options is determined using the Black Scholes valuation model. The expected dividend yield is based on historical dividend payouts, the expected volatility is based on historical volatilities of company stock for a period approximating the expected life; the risk-free rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant for periods corresponding with the expected life of the option; and the expected life represents the period of time the options are expected to be outstanding and is based on historical trends. The weighted average assumptions used in the computations are as follows:

Expected volatility	207%	140%	80%
Dividend yield	-	-	-

PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT

Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Depreciation is provided over the estimated useful lives of the underlying assets using the following methods and rates:

Computer equipment	40%	Declining balance
Software	40%	Declining balance
Office furniture and equipment	40%	Declining balance
Voice communications equipment	20%	Declining balance
Leasehold improvements	5 years	Straight line over the lesser of 5 years or the term of the underlying lease

LEASES

Leases are classified as either capital or operating in nature. Capital leases are those that substantially transfer the benefits and risks of ownership to the Company. Assets acquired under capital leases are amortized at the same rates as those described for property and equipment. Obligations recorded under capital leases are reduced by the principal portion of lease payments. The imputed interest portion of lease payments is charged to expense. Operating leases are expensed as incurred.

LONG-LIVED ASSETS AND INVESTMENTS

Long-lived assets and investments are tested for impairment when evidence of a decline in value exists and are adjusted to estimated fair value if the asset is impaired. ASC 360-10-35 “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets” requires that, whenever events and circumstances indicate that the Company may not be able to recover the net book value of its productive assets, that the assets are deemed impaired and are to be written down to their estimated fair value through a charge to earnings. The guidance states that fair values may be estimated using discounted cash flow analysis or quoted market prices, together with other available information. Under the provisions of ASC 360-10-35, the Company reviewed its long-lived assets and investment for impairment to determine if there were events or changes in circumstances that would indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be recoverable through future cash flows. It was determined that no impairment was evident.

CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS

Cash equivalents consist of highly liquid investments that are readily convertibles to cash with maturities of three months or less when purchased.

INTANGIBLE ASSETS

Intangible assets that are determined to have finite lives are amortized using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives.

RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

Except for the 5,000,000 shares of common stock, valued at $15,504, issued on June 24, 2009 and for the 5,000,000 shares of common stock, valued at $10,000, issued on February 27, 2009 (See Note 11), no remuneration has been recorded in these financial statements for the services of the Chief Executive Officer (CEO). The CEO is also a director and the controlling shareholder.

3 - ACCOUNTING FOR UNCERTAIN TAX POSITIONS

The Company recognizes any interest accrued related to unrecognized tax benefits in interest and penalties in income tax benefit in the Consolidated Statement of Operations.

At March 31, 2010, the Company had $70,349 in unrecognized tax benefits, related to estimated Investment Tax Credits for research and development in Canada, which would favorably impact the Company’s effective tax rate if subsequently recognized. The unrecognized tax benefits as at March 31, 2009, that were subsequently realized in fiscal 2010, were $40,900. The unrecognized tax benefits as at March 31, 2008, that were subsequently realized in fiscal 2009, were $37,032.

The following table indicates the changes to the Company’s unrecognized tax benefits for the year ended March 31, 1010.

	Unrecognized Tax Benefit
Balance at April 1, 2009	$46,164
Foreign exchange effects	($1,335)
Reduction for tax position in 2009	($3,929)
Settlement with taxing authorities in 2010	($40,900)
Addition based on tax position in 2010	$70,349
Balance at March 31, 2010	$70,349

4 – GAIN ON SETTLEMENT

In the first quarter of fiscal 2010, the Company negotiated an out of court settlement of an unrecognized claim. The full amount of the settlement was $214,961, subject to certain terms. Due to the inherent uncertainty of this contingent gain, it will be recorded at the time funds are received. As of March 31, 2010, $171,400 has been received and has been recorded as other income. It is uncertain if the company will receive the remainder of the settlement.

5 - INVESTMENT

On October 21, 2009 ZIM Corporation made a $95,147 investment in Seregon Solutions Inc..

Seregon’s Mobile Application Platform (“MAP”) is a rapid application development environment for mobile business applications that dramatically reduces the time, cost and risk of application creation, deployment and maintenance and administration. Seregon-powered applications run on a variety of Smartphones and synchronize with all backend systems and databases. Seregon MAP has been adopted by Independent Software Vendors (“ISVs”) for the development of mobile business applications for Public Safety, Enterprise Resource Planning, Transportation, Computer Aided Facilities Management and other market sectors. The interest in Seregon by ZIM is less than 10% and ZIM has no significant influence, as defined in ASC 323-10, over the corporate decisions of Seregon at this time. Based on these facts, and the guidance provided by ASC 325-20, the investment has been accounted for using the cost method.

The investment consisted of the purchase of 61,480 common shares and 69,677 warrants. Depending on the fiscal 2010 results of Seregon each warrant will either be converted, at no cost to ZIM, to a common share, converted to a portion of common share or expire with no action. The results of Seregon will be available within 90 days of the fiscal year ending June 30, 2010. The maximum benefit to ZIM of this potential conversion of warrants is the gain of an additional 69,677 common shares to a total of 131,157. In the event the additional shares are provided to ZIM it is expected, based on current information, that ZIM will not gain significant influence, nor control, over Seregon.

6 – GAIN ON SETTLEMENT OF LIABILITY

During fiscal 2008, after a two-year period, ZIM abandoned its efforts to locate a supplier which, according to internal estimates of the Company, was owed an amount of $77,385. Management is of the opinion that it made every reasonable effort to contact this supplier, and since the statute of limitations for this liability expired December 31, 2007, the Company de-recognized the accrued liability to this supplier and recorded a gain on settlement of liabilities.

9 – LINE OF CREDIT

During fiscal 2010, a working capital line of credit was available at approximately $49,222 (equivalent to $50,000 Canadian, the Company’s functional currency) from the Company’s major financial institution. This credit facility is secured by the Company’s assets. In addition, $492,223 (equivalent to $500,000 Canadian, the Company’s functional currency) was available from the Company’s CEO and principal shareholder as an unsecured revolving facility. Amounts drawn on either of these credit facilities bear interest at the prime rate, as published by the Royal Bank of Canada, plus 1.75%.

In order to maintain the working capital line of credit the Company must maintain a Tangible Net Worth of greater than $150,000 Canadian dollars (equivalent to $147,667 US dollars) and a ratio of current assets to current liabilities greater than 1.10:1. During fiscal years 2008, 2009 and 2010 the Company has not been in violation of these covenants.

As at March 31, 2008, March 31, 2009 and March 31, 2010 nothing was drawn down on these lines of credit. The lines of credit do not have defined expiration or renewal dates.

13 - STOCK OPTIONS

Under ZIM’s Employee Stock Option Plan, the Company may grant options to its officers, directors and employees for up to 27,200,000 common shares. As at March 31, 2010, 19,891,445 (March 31, 2009, 21,383,073 and March 31, 2008, 23,717,089) options were outstanding under the Employee Stock Option Plan. In addition, 6,010,000 (March 31, 2009, 6,010,000 and March 31, 2008, 6,010,000) options were issued outside of ZIM’s Employee Stock Option Plan and are outstanding. Stock options are granted with an exercise price equal to the common share’s fair market value at the date of grant. Options are granted periodically and both the maximum term of an option and the vesting period are set at the Board's discretion. All options granted in fiscal year 2010 vested on the day of the grant and have a three year term. The expected life of the grants due to forfeitures and exercise of options is estimated based on recent history and is 2 years.

The change in valuation allowance for originating temporary differences and losses available for carry forward, is calculated using an effective tax rate of 15.50%, based on the application of the Small Business Deduction. The rate at which such amounts may be realized as disclosed as part of a deferred tax asset and related valuation allowance takes into account the enacted tax rate decreases over the expected period of realization.

Income tax recoveries of $213,962, $239,544 and $432,100 for the years ended March 31, 2010, March 31, 2009 and March 31, 2008, respectively, relate to refundable income tax credits for research and development in Canada, net of the tax expense on account of income in Brazil. The investment tax credits are subject to review and approval by taxation authorities and it is possible that the amounts granted will be different from the amounts recorded by the Company.

ASC 605-25:

ASC 805

On April 1, 2009, the FASB issued an amendment to ASC 805, “Business Combinations.” The amendment was issued to address application issues regarding accounting and disclosure provisions for contingencies. The guidance also provides subsequent accounting guidance for contingent assets and liabilities recognized at the acquisition date and amends the disclosure requirements for contingencies. The FSP applies prospectively to business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after the beginning of the first annual reporting period beginning on or after December 15, 2008. ZIM will adopt and utilize the methods stipulated in ASU 805 for all future transactions of this nature.

ASU 2010-13:

In April, 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2010-13 (ASU 2010-13), "Effect of Denominating the Exercise Price of a Share-Based Payment Award in the Currency of the Market in Which the Underlying Equity Security Trades". This update addresses whether an employee stock option should be classified as a liability or as an equity instrument if the exercise price is denominated in the currency in which a substantial portion of the entity’s equity securities trade. That currency may differ from the entity’s functional currency and from the payroll currency of the employee receiving the option. The guidance requires equity treatment for share-based payment awards that have an exercise price denominated in the currency of the market in which a substantial portion of the company’s equity shares trade, assuming all other criteria for equity classification are met. The final consensus is consistent with the guidance in the proposed ASU on this Issue, except that it clarifies that an entity cannot choose to account for such awards as a liability if the award otherwise qualifies for equity classification. The amended guidance is effective for fiscal years, and for interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning on or after December 15, 2010. In the period of adoption, entities must record a cumulative effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings for that year, presented separately for all outstanding awards as of the beginning of the fiscal year in which the new guidance is initially applied. Early adoption is permitted. If an entity elects early application and the period of adoption is not the first reporting period in the entity’s fiscal year, the amended guidance must be applied through retrospective application from the beginning of the entity’s fiscal year. Management is currently assessing the impact of the adoption of this authoritative guidance will have, if any, on the Company's consolidated financial statements.
