SUMMARY
This summary highlights information contained elsewhere in this prospectus but might not contain all of the information that is important to you. Before investing in our common stock, you should read the entire prospectus carefully, including the “Risk Factors” section and our financial statements and the note thereto included elsewhere in this prospectus.
For purposes of this prospectus, unless otherwise indicated or the context otherwise requires, all references herein to “Kreido Biofuels,” “our company,” “we,” “us,” and “our” refer to Kreido Biofuels, Inc., a Nevada corporation, and our subsidiaries.
Our Company
We have developed a lower-cost, higher-output system for the production of diesel motor fuel that is derived from vegetable oils rather than petroleum, and which is classified under industry standards as biodiesel. Our business goal is to commercialize our proprietary equipment system for biodiesel production on an industrial scale and to become one of the leading providers of biodiesel in the United States and elsewhere. We were founded in 1995 to develop proprietary technology for building micro-composite materials for electronic applications. We thereafter sought to develop technology to improve the speed, completeness and efficiency of certain chemical reactions, including esterifications and transesterifications. Since the first quarter of 2006, we have focused exclusively on the biodiesel industry.
We expect to execute our business plan by generating revenues from operating our own STT® Reactor-based Biodiesel Production Units and licensing our STT® Reactor-based technology for production of biodiesel. If we are successful in bringing our three planned STT® Reactor-based Biodiesel Production Units online, we anticipate that by the end of 2008 we will have the aggregate nameplate capacity to produce more than 100 million gallons per year, or MMgpy, of biodiesel. If we achieve this production, we anticipate marketing STT® Reactor-based Production Units primarily to biodiesel producers outside the United States. We also plan to market and distribute the biodiesel that we produce in our owned and operated facilities to diesel blenders and other distributors of diesel.
Recent Developments
We took our current form on January 12, 2007, when our wholly-owned subsidiary, Kreido Acquisition Corp., or Acquisition Sub, and Kreido Laboratories, or Kreido Labs, executed a Merger Agreement and Plan of Reorganization, or the Merger Agreement. On January 12, 2007, Acquisition Sub merged with and into Kreido Labs, with Kreido Labs remaining as the surviving corporation and as our wholly-owned subsidiary, or the Merger. The holders of Kreido Labs’ issued and outstanding capital stock before the Merger surrendered all of their issued and outstanding capital stock of Kreido Labs and received 25,263,683 shares of our common stock, par value $0.001 per share. Our stockholders before the Merger retained 8,750,000 shares of our common stock. In addition, all of the issued and outstanding options to purchase shares of Kreido Labs’ common stock that were issued under the 1997 Stock Compensation Program of Kreido Labs (the “1997 Plan”), were exchanged for options to acquire shares of our common stock. Further, holders of warrants to acquire shares of Kreido Labs’ common stock were issued new warrants to acquire shares of our common stock. Substantially all of the warrants were subsequently converted into shares of our common stock.
The Merger was treated as a recapitalization of our company for accounting purposes. Our historical financial statements before the Merger were replaced with the historical financial statements of Kreido Labs in all filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or SEC, subsequent to January 12, 2007. The offering provided net proceeds of approximately $23 million, which included the repayment of $123,000 in outstanding notes and the cancellation of indebtedness of approximately $250,000.
Concurrently with the closing of the Merger, we consummated a private offering of 18,518,519 units of our securities, the Units, at a purchase price of $1.35 per Unit. Each Unit consisted of one share of our common stock and a warrant to acquire one share of our common stock at an exercise price of $1.85 per share. The warrants are exercisable for a period of five years from January 12, 2007.

In November and December 2006, to facilitate the completion of the Merger and to enable Kreido Labs to meet specific working capital needs, certain Kreido Labs stockholders provided bridge financing to Kreido Labs. The bridge financing was evidenced by unsecured promissory notes in the aggregate principal amount of approximately $370,000, which were scheduled to mature on January 10, 2007 and bore no interest. The holders of bridge notes that were issued in November converted their notes into Units in our private offering at the rate of one Unit for each $1.35 of the principal amount of their notes. The holders of $123,000 in notes issued in December 2006 were paid in full on January 12, 2007 from the proceeds of our private offering.
Also contemporaneously with the closing of the Merger, we split-off another wholly-owned subsidiary, Gemwood Leaseco, Inc., a Nevada corporation, through the sale of all of the outstanding capital stock of Gemwood Leaseco, Inc. As a consequence of the sale of Gemwood Leaseco, Inc., we discontinued all of our business operations which we conducted prior to the closing of the Merger, and spun off all material liabilities existing prior to that date in any way related to our pre-closing business operations. Our primary operations are now those formerly operated by Kreido Labs, as well as other business activities which we have developed since January 12, 2007, as described in this Prospectus.
On February 28, 2007, we announced that we have conducted an inquiry concerning the improper transfer of shares of our common stock without a restrictive legend to two brokerage accounts controlled by Louis Zehil, a former partner of McGuireWoods, the law firm that represented us in a private offering of company stock in January 2007. As part of the 18,518,519 unit private offering, a total of approximately 1.5 million units of common stock and common stock purchase warrants were sold to the two private financial entities controlled by Mr. Zehil. We have learned that approximately 81,480 shares of common stock were sold in the public markets by the two private financial entities at the direction of Mr. Zehil in January and early February of this year. These sales were done without the consent or knowledge of the Company and in violation of the terms of purchase and purchase covenants, and the representations and warranties on which the Company relied in satisfying the requirements of the private placement exemption of Regulation D under the Securities Act. We do not anticipate reacquiring any of the 81,480 shares. The Company is evaluating its claims against the two private financial entities, Mr. Zehil and his former law firm. The high and low trading prices of Company common stock during the period that the 81,480 shares were sold was $2.43 and $1.57, respectively. Based upon this range, were the Company requested by purchasers to reacquire such shares, the aggregate maximum cost to the Company would be less than $200,000. The remaining 1.4 million shares and the warrants to purchase 1,481,480 shares of common stock continue to be held in accounts for the two entities. The remaining shares and warrants are under the control of a court-appointed receiver who has had replacement certificates reissued bearing the appropriate restrictive legends. The 81,480 shares are currently in the 8,831,480 shares public float of Company shares, and the remaining shares and shares of common stock underlying the warrants are included in this prospectus. The SEC has commenced an enforcement action against Mr. Zehil and U.S. Department of Justice is pursuing criminal proceedings against Mr. Zehil.

RISK FACTORS
An investment in our common stock is highly speculative and involves a high degree of risk. Investors should carefully consider the risks below before making an investment decision. Our business, financial condition or results of operations could be materially adversely affected by any of these risks. In such case, the trading price of our common stock could decline and investors could lose all or part of their investment.
Risks Related to the Contemplated Conduct of our Business
We have had no operating history as a producer of biodiesel or as a producer of equipment systems for the biodiesel industry. Our anticipated results of operation and financial condition are planned and estimated on the basis of our assumptions with respect to our anticipated operations.
We have no operating history in our contemplated biodiesel production business and, to date, have not earned any revenues in connection with that business. We have no experience operating, selling or licensing processing equipment or complete systems to the biodiesel or other fuel industry. We have only recently, in the fourth quarter of 2005, begun to pursue commercial applications for the STT® Reactor in the biodiesel industry. Accordingly, it may be difficult for investors to evaluate our business prospects or our ability to achieve our business objectives. If our efforts do not result in both revenues and profits, we may be forced to cease operations and liquidate, and investors may lose their entire investment.
If we cannot successfully address these risks, our contemplated business and the anticipated results of our contemplated operations and financial condition would suffer.
We have been a development stage company since 1995 and have a history of significant operating losses. We may not ever achieve or maintain profitability.
We have incurred significant operating losses since our inception, and, as of March 31, 2007, we have accumulated a deficit of approximately $23.7 million. We may continue to incur operating losses, depending largely upon the commercial success of our STT® Reactor and STT® Production Units. To date, we have neither sold nor licensed any commercial-scale products. We will need to generate revenues in excess of our expenses to become profitable, and we may be unable to do so. If we do not become profitable, the value of our common stock may decline.
Our operating losses may increase as we continue to incur costs for sales and marketing, research and development and legal and general corporate activities. Whether we achieve and maintain profitability depends in part upon our ability, alone or with others, to successfully complete the development of biodiesel production facilities, to sell biodiesel at a profit, to successfully complete the development of our equipment systems and to sell or license those equipment systems at prices that enable us to generate a profitable return.
We may be required to implement our business plan other than as described herein.
We may find it necessary or advisable to substantially alter or materially change our commercialization activities to respond to changes that occur in the future.
Although core to our business plan is to own and operate biodiesel production plants in the United States for our own account, part of our contemplated business strategy is to license STT® Production Units to others primarily outside the United States. The portion of our contemplated business model that calls for us to license STT® Production Units to others is dependent on the market’s willingness to adopt a new biodiesel production technology. Our STT® Production Unit may never gain acceptance from the biodiesel market, which would put in jeopardy that portion of our business model that relies on licensing STT® Production Units to others. This risk is amplified by the fact that, although we are currently building our first commercial-scale STT® Production Units, we have not completed building our first such unit. None of our products are currently being used to produce biodiesel on a commercial scale.

Table of Contents

Should biodiesel producers fail to adopt our STT® Biodiesel Production Units, or should a superior competing technology be developed, it may not be possible to fund our operations as expected. The degree of market acceptance of our STT® Biodiesel Production Units will depend on numerous factors, including the effectiveness of our product and the biodiesel market’s willingness to use a new processing technology.
Our ability to execute our business plan is dependent on the growth and maintenance of substantial demand for biodiesel in the United States. It is impossible to predict what the current demand for biodiesel is since so little of it is currently being produced and all that is being produced is being sold. Accordingly, the failure of a biodiesel market to develop could adversely affect our anticipated results of operations and financial condition.
We have not produced or operated any commercial-scale STT® Reactors or STT® Production Units.
We have designed, built, and licensed two bench-scale STT® Reactors to the specialty chemical and pharmaceutical markets and have designed and built pilot-scale STT® Reactors ranging from 8 to 100 ml capacity. We have also designed and are now building commercial-scale STT® Production Units for producing biodiesel. We have yet to license our first STT® Production Unit or install one in our own biodiesel production plant. We do not know if our commercial-scale STT® Production Unit will produce biodiesel fuel to ASTM standard in the volumes that we anticipate or whether our equipment systems will gain commercial acceptance in the biodiesel industry. Therefore, we are uncertain whether we will be able to sell, license or lease any STT® Biodiesel Production Units to any third parties. If we are unable to produce and operate our equipment systems on a commercial scale and generate biodiesel to ASTM standard, then we may be forced to cease operations or to raise additional capital to further develop our equipment systems. Additional capital may not be available on terms acceptable to us or at all.
We are likely to require additional funding to execute our business plan, and additional funding may not be available. If additional funding is available, it may not be offered to us on terms that are satisfactory to our board of directors.
We anticipate that we will require additional capital in the future to sufficiently fund our operations. We may not be able to obtain additional capital on terms favorable to us or at all. We have consumed substantial amounts of capital to date, and we expect to increase our operating expenses over the coming years as we build our pilot unit and first production unit, expand our facilities and infrastructure and prepare for commercialization activities.
Based upon our projected activities, we believe an additional $20 million will be needed in the fourth quarter of 2007 in order to support our current operating plan’s funding needs. However, if this plan changes, we may require additional financing at an earlier time. Financing may not be available on terms acceptable to us or our investors, and may be available only on terms that would negatively affect the existing stockholders. If adequate funds are not available, we likely will not be successful in executing our business plan as anticipated and, as a result, we may be forced to cease operations and liquidate, in which case investors may not be able to receive any return of their invested capital.
We cannot be certain that additional financing will not be needed beyond our current and projected needs or will be available when required and, if available, that it will be on terms satisfactory to us. Future financings may be dilutive to existing stockholders. If we are unable to generate sufficient cash flow and are otherwise unable to obtain funds necessary to meet our funding requirements, this would adversely affect our anticipated results of operations and financial condition
A substantial part of our assumptions regarding our financial advantages in the biodiesel production business are estimates and therefore may not be correct.
We believe that our STT® Production Units will have higher yields and a less per gallon cost than conventional biodiesel production systems. This is based, in part, on what we believe will be favorable facilities construction costs. If the actual cost exceeds the costs that we project to construct our planned production facilities, it would adversely affect the amortization of our capital costs. This in turn would decrease or eliminate certain of our anticipated costs advantages with respect to conventional biodiesel plants.

Table of Contents

We believe that the per gallon cost of producing biodiesel will be less than petrodiesel based primarily on the cost of feedstock and raw materials used in making biodiesel. We have relied on historical costs for process inputs, such as feedstocks and other materials used in the production process. These historical costs may not remain at or below the levels that we project through 2008, which is the time at which we expect that our facilities will begin to produce biodiesel. If the costs of these inputs increase, then the costs advantages that we anticipate may not be present, and we may not be able to achieve our expected profits or any profits at all.
Moreover, in comparing the projected market price of biodiesel to the price of petrodiesel, we have estimated that the producer price for B100 when we project that our plants will first come on line will be $3.00 per gallon. According to the Energy Management Institute Alternative Fuels Indexsm, the average producer price of B100 diesel across 52 major metropolitan areas in the United States during the week ending May 24, 2007 was $3.32 per gallon and net of site specific transportation and handling costs, it was $3.15. It is possible that this price range will not remain the relevant price range for biodiesel in and after 2008. It is possible that potential oversupply conditions may adversely affect the price level or that demand for biodiesel may not be as strong as forecasted. If the wholesale price for biodiesel does not remain at a level that permits us to generate revenues in excess of our costs, after taking into account tax incentives and credits, then we may not become or remain profitable, in which case we might be forced to cease operations and liquidate.
Our ability to execute our business plan depends on conditions the satisfaction of which is not under our control.
Our ability to successfully execute our business plan depends on the satisfaction of several conditions, including:
    obtaining all required permits, consents and regulatory approvals from government agencies and other third parties for our anticipated construction and operation of owned biodiesel production plants and related facilities, as well as for the future operation of those facilities;
 
    successfully commercializing the STT® Reactor technology for biodiesel;
 
    arranging reasonably priced insurance to cover operating risks and other adverse outcomes which could impair the business; and
 
    market conditions for fuels that make biodiesel a competitively priced product.
Since we have yet to begin full operation as a biodiesel business, there is no certainty that we will be able to achieve satisfaction of any or all of the above conditions. If we fail to do so, we may be forced to cease operations and to liquidate, in which case investors may not be able to receive any return of their invested capital.
We are dependent upon our officers for management and direction, and the loss of any of these persons could adversely affect our anticipated results of operations and financial condition.
We are dependent upon our officers for implementation of our business plan. Our key officers include Joel Balbien, our President and Chief Executive Officer, Philip Lichtenberger, our Senior Vice President of Operations and interim Chief Financial Officer, and Alan McGrevy, our Vice President of Engineering. We have recently appointed John M. Philpott as our Chief Accounting Officer and Larry Sullivan as our Chief Technology Officer. The loss of any of these officers could have a material adverse effect upon the anticipated results of our contemplated operations and financial condition and would likely delay or prevent the achievement of our contemplated business objectives. We do not maintain “key person” life insurance for any of our officers.
We may be unable to effectively manage our growth.
Our strategy envisions expanding our business beyond our status as a development stage company. We anticipate significant expansion in our manpower, facilities and infrastructure in the future and expect that greater expansion will be necessary to address potential growth in our customer base and market opportunities. To manage the expected growth of our operations and personnel, we will need to improve our transaction processing, operational and financial systems, procedures and controls. The current and planned personnel, systems, procedures and

6


Table of Contents

controls may not be adequate to support our future operations. We may be unable to hire, train, retain and manage required personnel or to identify and take advantage of existing and potential strategic relationships and market opportunities.
If we fail to effectively manage our growth, our anticipated results of operation and financial condition could be adversely affected. Growth may place a strain on our management systems and resources. We must continue to refine and expand our business development capabilities, our systems and processes, and our access to financing sources. As we grow, we must continue to hire, train, supervise and manage new employees. We cannot assure that if we do expand our business that we will be able to:
    meet our capital needs;
 
    expand our systems effectively, efficiently or in a timely manner;
 
    allocate our human resources optimally;
 
    identify and hire qualified employees or retain valued employees; or
 
    incorporate effectively the components of any business that we may acquire in our effort to achieve growth.
We may be unable to attract and retain key personnel.
Our development and success is dependent upon our management’s ability to effectuate our transition into a biodiesel technology-development and production company. Our anticipated product development and manufacturing efforts capability will require additional management not yet part of us. There is intense competition for qualified management, research, development and manufacturing personnel in the chemical, engineering and biofuels fields. Therefore, we may not be successful in attracting and retaining the qualified personnel necessary to develop our business.
New technologies could render our biodiesel production system obsolete.
The development and implementation of new technologies may result in a significant reduction in the costs of biodiesel production. For instance, any technological advances in catalysis and/or large scale micro-channel reactor systems could have an adverse effect on our contemplated business. We cannot predict whether new technologies may become available, the rate of acceptance of new technologies by competitors or the costs associated with new technologies. In addition, advances in the development of alternatives to biodiesel could significantly reduce demand for or eliminate the need for biodiesel.
Any advances in technology that require significant capital expenditures to remain competitive or that reduce demand or prices for biodiesel could adversely affect our anticipated results of operations and financial condition.
Strategic relationships with feedstock suppliers, fabricators, building contractors, equipment suppliers and other unrelated third parties on which we rely are subject to change.
Our ability to develop our business will depend on our ability to identify feedstock suppliers, construction contractors, equipment fabricators and customers and to enter into suitable commercial arrangements with those suppliers, contractors, fabricators and customers. Our success in this area will also depend on our ability to select and evaluate suitable projects, as well as to consummate transactions in a highly competitive environment.
The demand for construction and contract manufacturing companies that are qualified to build biodiesel production plants and equipment has increased. Some companies report that their construction backlogs are as many as four years. We do not have the capability in-house to construct and fabricate our own biodiesel production plant and equipment and we intend to rely on strategic relationships with third-party construction and fabrication companies, some of which we have not yet developed. We recently engaged a company to construct and fabricate our first

7


Table of Contents

modular production plant. Furthermore, the recent growth in biodiesel plant construction has caused a backlog on certain specialized equipment. One example of such specialized equipment is centrifuges, for which there is a reported backlog of six months for some models. The failure to secure agreements with construction companies and/or for the requisition of such specialized equipment may adversely affect our anticipated results of operations and financial condition.
To develop our business, we plan to use the business relationships of our management to form strategic relationships. These relationships may take the form of joint ventures with other private parties or local government bodies, contractual arrangements with other companies, including those that supply feedstock that we will use in our business, or minority investments from third parties. We may not be able to establish these strategic relationships, or, if established, we may not be able to maintain these relationships, particularly if members of the management team leave us. In addition, the dynamics of our relationships with strategic partners may require us to incur expenses or undertake activities we would not otherwise be inclined to incur or undertake to fulfill our obligations to these partners or maintain these relationships. If we do not successfully establish or maintain strategic relationships, we may not be able to achieve our business goals and that could adversely affect our anticipated results of operations and financial condition.
Our anticipated production, sale and distribution of biodiesel are dependent on the sufficiency of necessary infrastructure, which may not be put into place on a timely basis, if at all. In this case, our anticipated results of operations and financial condition would be adversely affected by these infrastructure disruptions.
Substantial development of infrastructure will be required by persons and entities outside our control for our operations, and the biodiesel industry generally, to grow. Areas requiring expansion include, but are not limited to:
    adequate rail capacity, including sufficient numbers of dedicated tanker cars;
 
    sufficient storage facilities for feedstock and biodiesel;
 
    increases in truck fleets capable of transporting biodiesel within localized markets; and
 
    expansion of blending facilities and pipelines to handle biodiesel.
Substantial investments required for these infrastructure changes and expansions may not be made or may not be made on a timely basis. Any delay or failure in making the changes to or expansion of infrastructure could hurt the demand and/or prices for our products, impede our delivery of products, impose additional costs on us or otherwise have a material adverse effect on our anticipated results of operations or financial condition. Our business is dependent on the continuing availability of infrastructure, and any infrastructure disruptions could adversely affect our anticipated results of operations and financial condition.
We may be unable to locate suitable properties and obtain the development rights needed to build and expand our business, in which case we will not be able to produce our anticipated results of operations and financial condition.
Our business plan focuses in part on designing, building and operating biodiesel production plants for our own account within existing liquids-handling terminals adjacent to river, lake and seaports. Our ability to secure suitable plant locations could create unanticipated costs and delays in implementing our business plan. If we are not successful in identifying and obtaining development rights on suitable properties for building and operating biodiesel production plants, our future prospects for profitability will likely be substantially limited, and adversely affect our anticipated results of operations and financial condition.
We may be adversely affected by environmental, health and safety laws, regulations and requirements, any of which could require us to pay or satisfy costs or incur expenses substantially in excess of our business plan.
As we pursue our business plan, we will become subject to various federal, state, local and foreign environmental laws and regulations, including those relating to the discharge of materials into the air, water and ground, the generation, storage, handling, use, transportation and disposal of hazardous materials, and the health and safety of

our employees. The cost of compliance with environmental, health and safety laws could be significant. A violation of these laws, regulations and/or permit conditions can result in substantial fines, natural resource damages, criminal sanctions, permit revocations and/or facility shutdowns, as well as civil liabilities to affected property owners. In addition, new laws, new interpretations of existing laws, increased governmental enforcement of environmental laws or other developments could require us to make additional significant expenditures.
The hazards and risks associated with producing and transporting biodiesel, in particular due to the presence of methanol (such as fires, natural disasters, explosions and abnormal pressures and blowouts) may also result in personal injury claims or damage to property and third parties. As protection against operating hazards, we intend to maintain insurance coverage against some, but not all, potential losses. However, we could sustain losses for uninsurable or uninsured risks, or in amounts in excess of existing insurance coverage. Events that result in significant personal injury or damage to our property or third parties or other losses that are not fully covered by insurance could have a material adverse effect on the anticipated results of our contemplated operations and financial condition.
Our anticipated results of operation and financial condition will suffer if we cannot obtain or maintain governmental permits or licenses that are necessary for the operation of our biodiesel production units.
Our pilot plant and biodiesel production facilities operations will require licenses and permits from various governmental authorities. We believe that we will be able to obtain all necessary licenses and permits to carry on the activities that we contemplate. However, our ability to obtain, sustain or renew such licenses and permits will be subject to governmental regulations and policies which are subject to change. Our inability to obtain or retain any of these licenses or permits may have a material adverse effect on our anticipated results from operations and financial condition.
Our success will depend in part on our ability to protect our intellectual property.
Our success, competitive position and future revenues will depend in large part on our ability, to obtain, secure and defend patent protection for our products, methods, processes and other technologies, to preserve our trade secrets, to prevent third parties from infringing on our proprietary rights, and to operate without infringing on the proprietary rights of third parties. Our interest in these rights is complex and uncertain.
We hold five issued patents (plus one pending application for U.S. patents) on our STT® technology for biodiesel production in the United States and internationally. These issued patents expire between 2011 and 2023. We will seek to obtain additional patents that we believe may be required to commercialize our products, technologies and methods. We also have patent applications pending in several foreign jurisdictions. We anticipate filing additional patent applications both in the United States and in other countries, as appropriate. However, we cannot predict:
    the degree and range of protection any patents will afford us against competitors, including whether third parties will find ways to invalidate or otherwise circumvent our patents;
 
    if and when patents will issue;
 
    if our issued patents will be valid or enforceable;
 
    whether or not others will obtain patents claiming aspects similar to those covered by our patents and patent applications; or
 
    whether we will need to initiate litigation or administrative proceedings which may be costly whether we win or lose.
Even issued patents may later be found unenforceable, or be restricted or invalidated in proceedings instituted by third parties before various patent offices and courts. Changes in either the patent laws or in the interpretation of patent laws in the United States and other countries may diminish the value of our intellectual property. We are

Table of Contents

therefore unable to predict the scope of any patent claims in our or in third-party patents that may be issued or may be enforceable.
To help protect our proprietary know-how and our inventions for which patents may be unobtainable or difficult to obtain, we rely on trade secret protection and confidentiality agreements with our employees, consultants and advisors. If any of our trade secrets, know-how or other proprietary information is disclosed, the value of our trade secrets, know-how and other proprietary rights would be significantly impaired and our business and competitive position would suffer.
A dispute regarding the infringement or misappropriation of our proprietary rights or the proprietary rights of others could be costly and result in delays in our commercialization activities. Our success depends, in part, on our ability to operate without infringing on or misappropriating the property rights of others.
Any legal action claiming damages or seeking to enjoin commercial activities relating to the affected products, methods, and processes could require us to obtain a license to continue to use, manufacture or market the affected products, methods or processes, which may not be available on commercially reasonable terms, if at all, or could prevent us from making, using or selling the subject matter claimed in patents held by others and subject us to potential liability damages or could consume a substantial portion of our managerial and financial resources whether we win or lose.
Risks Related to our Participation in the Biodiesel Industry
Increases in the construction of biodiesel production plants may cause excess biodiesel production capacity in the market. Excess capacity may adversely affect the price at which we are able to sell the biodiesel that we produce and may also adversely affect our anticipated results of operation and financial condition.
In 2006, only 200 million gallons of biodiesel were produced in the United States. According to the National Biodiesel Board, as of January 31, 2007, there is a reported 864 MMgpy of biodiesel production capacity in the United States, with another 1.7 billion gallons per year under construction (for a total of 2,564 MMgpy) (see http://www.biodiesel.org/pdf_files/fuelfactsheets/Production_Capacity.pdf).
With such an increase in biodiesel production capacity in the United States, compared to historical production levels, there is risk that there will be a significant amount of excess biodiesel production capacity, thereby resulting in significant price competition and the closure of less competitive biodiesel facilities. Although this existing and pending capacity growth is very large compared to historical production levels, we believe that the market will purchase as much biodiesel as is available, so long as the prices for biodiesel (net of the impact of tax credits and other similar incentives) are competitive with those of petrodiesel.
Our anticipated results of operations, financial condition and business outlook will be highly dependent on commodity prices and the availability of supplies, both of which are subject to significant volatility and uncertainty.
Our operating results will be substantially dependent on commodity prices, especially prices for biodiesel and petroleum diesel, as well as feedstock, equipment and materials used in the construction and operation of our biodiesel production plants. As a result of the volatility of the prices and the scarcity of these items, our results may fluctuate substantially, and we may experience periods of declining prices for our products and increasing costs for our raw materials, which could result in operating losses. Although we may attempt to offset a portion of the effects of fluctuations in prices by entering into forward contracts to supply biodiesel or purchase feedstock or other items or by engaging in transactions involving exchange-traded futures contracts, the amount and duration of these hedging and other risk mitigation activities may vary substantially over time, and these activities also involve substantial risks.
The price of feedstock is influenced by market demand, weather conditions, animal processing and rendering plant decisions, factors affecting crop yields, farmer planting decisions and general economic, market and regulatory factors. The principal feedstocks for biodiesel currently are soybean oil and palm oil and are the feedstocks most susceptible to price risk due to market demand. Factors affecting crop yield and planting decisions include

10


Table of Contents

government policies and subsidies with respect to agriculture and international trade, and global and local demand and supply. The significance and relative effect of these factors on the price of feedstock is difficult to predict.
Any event that tends to negatively affect the supply of feedstock, such as increased demand, adverse weather or crop disease, could increase feedstock prices and potentially harm our business. In addition, we may also have difficulty, from time to time, in physically sourcing feedstock on economical terms due to supply shortages. Such a shortage could require us to suspend operations until feedstock is available at economical terms, which would have a material adverse effect on our business, anticipated results of operations and financial condition. The price we pay for feedstock at a facility could increase if an additional multi-feedstock biodiesel production plant is built in the same general vicinity or if alternative uses are found for lower cost feedstock.
Biodiesel fuel is a commodity whose price is determined based in part on the price of petroleum diesel, world demand, supply and other factors, all of which are beyond our control. World prices for biodiesel fuel have fluctuated widely in recent years. We expect that prices will continue to fluctuate in the future. Price fluctuations will have a significant impact upon our revenue, the return on our investment in biodiesel production plants and our general financial condition. Price fluctuations for biodiesel fuel may also impact the investment market and our ability to raise investor capital. Although market prices for biodiesel fuel rose to near-record levels during 2005, there is no assurance that these prices will remain at current levels. Future decreases in the prices of biodiesel or petroleum diesel fuel may have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and anticipated results of operations.
Both supply and demand in the United States biodiesel industry are highly dependent upon federal and state legislation.
The production of biodiesel is made significantly more competitive by federal and state tax incentives. The federal excise tax incentive program for biodiesel was originally enacted as part of the JOBS Act but is scheduled to expire on December 31, 2008. This program provides blenders, generally distributors, with a one cent tax credit for each percentage point of virgin vegetable oil-derived biodiesel blended with petroleum diesel. For example, distributors that blend virgin soybean-derived biodiesel with petroleum diesel into a B20 blend biodiesel would receive a 20 cent per gallon excise tax credit. The program also provides blenders of recycled oils, such as yellow grease from restaurants, with a one-half cent tax credit for each percentage point of recycled oil-derived biodiesel blended with petroleum diesel. For example, distributors that blend recycled oil-derived biodiesel with petroleum diesel into a B20 blend biodiesel would receive a 10 cent per gallon excise tax credit. In addition, approximately 31 states provide mandates, programs and other incentives to increase biodiesel production and use, such as mandates for fleet use or for overall use within the state, tax credits, financial grants, tax deductions, financial assistance, tax exemptions and fuel rebate programs. These incentives are meant to lower the end-users’ cost of biodiesel in comparison to petroleum diesel. The elimination or significant reduction in the federal excise tax incentive program or state incentive programs benefiting biodiesel could adversely affect our anticipated results of operations and financial condition.
Reductions in support of biodiesel from government, consumer or special interest groups could adversely impact our business plan and our anticipated results of operation and financial condition.
Federal and state governments in the United States and governments abroad have implemented incentives and mandates in support of biodiesel. Similarly, there has been support from consumers and special interest groups, such as agricultural and environmental groups. Support has even come from the petroleum industry itself, such as BP’s (formerly known as British Petroleum) “beyond petroleum” marketing campaign, and the automobile industry, such as General Motors’ “live green, go yellow” flex-fuel ethanol marketing campaign. The loss of these incentives, including the failure to renew incentives that terminate, could adversely affect our anticipated results of operations and financial condition.
We may be unable to effectively compete in the biodiesel industry.
In many instances, our competitors and potential competitors have, or will have, substantially greater financial, technical, research, and other resources and larger, more established marketing, sales, distribution, and service organizations than we have. Moreover, competitors may have longer operating histories and greater credit

11

worthiness (i.e., in competing for feedstock) than we have, and competitors may offer discounts as a competitive tactic. Our competitors may succeed in developing or marketing technologies or products that are more effective or commercially attractive than our products, or that would render our technologies and products obsolete. Also, we may not have the financial resources, technical expertise, or marketing, distribution, or support capabilities to compete successfully in the future.
We anticipate that competition for the licensing of biodiesel reactors will come primarily from companies that offer competing novel biodiesel production technologies. To compete effectively in licensing biodiesel production technology, we will need to demonstrate the advantages of our STT® Reactor over well-established, traditional chemical reactors, as well as novel technologies and systems. We will also experience competition from other producers of biodiesel.
Our ability to succeed as a biodiesel production company will depend, to a large extent, on our ability to compete for, and obtain, feedstock, obtaining suitable properties for constructing biodiesel production plants and sales of biodiesel and related products. Competition will likely increase as energy prices on the commodities market, including biodiesel and petrodiesel, rise as they have in recent years. This increased competition may also have an adverse impact on our ability to obtain additional capital from investors.
A substantial reduction in crude petroleum oil prices could have an adverse impact on our contemplated business plan by making biodiesel fuel relatively more expensive compared to petrodiesel. Were such a reduction to occur, it would likely adversely affect our anticipated results of operation and financial condition.
With the current elevated prices compared to historical prices of crude petroleum oil, and by extension, petrodiesel, biodiesel can be produced for a cost that is economically practical when compared to the cost to produce petrodiesel. However, if the price of crude petroleum oil should drop substantially, this could have a material adverse effect on the entire biodiesel industry and us.
Risks Related to Investment in our Common Stock
We have broad discretion over the use of a significant portion of the proceeds from our private offering which closed in January 2007. Our management will determine, with our board of directors, but without the need for stockholder approval, how to allocate a significant portion of these proceeds. If we do not wisely allocate the proceeds, our business plan could be seriously impacted.
We have broad discretion to allocate a significant portion of the net proceeds raised in the private placement offering of our securities which closed in January 2007, subject to certain limitations imposed by the parties who arranged the private placement offering. The timing and amount of our actual expenditures are subject to change and will be based on many factors, including:
    competition, market and other developments;
 
    our ability to attract and retain quality employees;
 
    our ability to implement our sales, marketing, product development, manufacturing and investor/public relations plans; and
 
    the on-going accounting, legal and other costs of being a publicly-traded company.
The public market for our common stock is volatile.
Our common stock is currently quoted for trading on the OTC Bulletin Board and since the closing of our private placement offering in January 2007 the trading price has been volatile. An active public market for the common stock may not be sustained.

Table of Contents

The market price of our common stock may fluctuate significantly in response to factors, some of which are beyond our control, including the following:
    actual or anticipated variations in operating results;
 
    the limited number of holders of the common stock, and the limited liquidity available through the OTC Bulletin Board;
 
    changes in financial estimates by securities analysts;
 
    changes in the economic performance and/or market valuations of other energy companies;
 
    the timing and type of financing and related dilution impact on the stockholders;
 
    our announcement of significant acquisitions, strategic partnerships, joint ventures or capital commitments;
 
    additions or departures of key personnel;
 
    sales or other transactions involving our capital stock;
 
    changes in the market for biodiesel fuel commodities or the capital markets generally, or both;
 
    changes in the availability of feedstock on commercially economic terms;
 
    changes in the demand for biodiesel fuel, including changes resulting from the expansion of other alternative fuels;
 
    changes in the social, political and/or legal climate;
 
    announcements of technological innovations or new products available to the biodiesel production industry; and/or
 
    announcements by relevant domestic and foreign government agencies related to incentives for alternative energy development programs.
We may not be able to attract the attention of major brokerage firms.
Because we have not yet actively commenced business, or because we became public through a “reverse merger,” security analysts of major brokerage firms may not provide coverage of us. Moreover, brokerage firms may not desire to provide financial advisory services or to conduct secondary offerings on our behalf in the future.
Our common stock may be considered “a penny stock” and may be difficult to sell.
The SEC has adopted regulations which generally define “penny stock” to be an equity security that has a market price of less than $5.00 per share or an exercise price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to specific exemptions. The market price of our common stock is less than $5.00 per share and therefore will be designated as a “penny stock” according to SEC rules. This designation requires any broker or dealer selling these securities to disclose certain information concerning the transaction, obtain a written agreement from the purchaser and determine that the purchaser is reasonably suitable to purchase the securities. These rules may restrict the ability of brokers or dealers to sell the common stock and may affect the ability of investors to sell their shares. In addition, since the common stock is currently traded on the OTC Bulletin Board, investors may find it difficult to obtain accurate quotations of the common stock and may experience a lack of buyers to purchase such stock or a lack of market makers to support the stock price.

A significant number of our shares will be eligible for sale, and their sale could depress the market price of our common stock.
Sales of a significant number of shares of our common stock in the public market following the effectiveness of the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part could harm the market price of our common stock. As additional shares of our common stock become available for resale in the public market pursuant to this registration statement and otherwise, the supply of common stock will increase, which could decrease the price of our common stock. Some or all of the shares of common stock not being registered on the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part, may be resold from time to time in the open market pursuant to Rule 144, and these sales may have a depressive effect on the market for our common stock. In general, a person who has held restricted shares for a period of one year may, upon filing with the SEC a notification on Form 144, sell into the market shares of common stock in an amount equal to the greater of 1% of the outstanding shares or the average weekly number of shares sold in the last four weeks prior to such sale. Such sales may be repeated once every three months, and any of the restricted shares may be sold by a non-affiliate after they have been held for two years. Substantially all of the former shareholders of Kreido Labs have entered into lock-up agreements pursuant to which they have agreed to not sell the company shares issued to them in the Merger for a period of 12 months following the merger date of January 12, 2007.
Further, the Registration Rights Agreement mandates that if we fail to have the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part declared effective by the SEC by June 14, 2007, we will have to pay each purchaser of Units such number of Units as liquidated damages equal to five percent of the number of Units held by such purchaser. The total liquidated damages will be ten percent if the registration statement is not declared effective by July 14, 2007 and fifteen percent if the registration statement is not declared effective by August 13, 2007. We will have to pay similar liquidated damages should (i) sales of shares of common stock be unable to be made by purchasers of Units after the effective date of the registration statement under certain circumstances or (ii) if our common stock is not listed or included for quotation on an Approved Market or the trading of our common stock is suspended or halted on an Approved Market for more than two full, consecutive trading days with certain exceptions excusing such events. The issuance of these additional Units will dilute the percentage ownership of our other stockholders and the sale of these additional shares may depress the market price of our common stock. Approved Markets include the NASD Over-The-Counter Bulletin Board, the Nasdaq National Market, the Nasdaq Capital Market, the New York Stock Exchange, Inc. or the American Stock Exchange, Inc.
Our principal stockholders will have significant voting power and may take actions that may not be in the best interests of other stockholders.
Our officers, directors, principal stockholders, and their affiliates control a significant percentage of the outstanding shares of common stock. If these stockholders act together, they will be able to exert significant control over our management and affairs requiring stockholder approval, including approval of significant corporate transactions. This concentration of ownership may have the effect of delaying or preventing a change in control and might adversely affect the market price of the common stock. This concentration of ownership may not be in the best interests of all our stockholders.
Investors should not anticipate receiving cash dividends on our common stock.
We have never declared or paid any cash dividends or distributions on our common stock. We currently intend to retain future earnings to support operations and to finance expansion and therefore do not anticipate paying any cash dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future.
Our management team does not have extensive experience in public company matters.
Our management team has had limited public company management experience and responsibilities, which could impair our ability to comply with legal and regulatory requirements such as the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and applicable federal securities laws including filing required reports and other information required on a timely basis. There can be no assurance that our management will be able to implement and effect programs and policies in an effective and timely manner that adequately respond to increased legal, regulatory compliance and reporting

requirements imposed by such laws and regulations. Our failure to comply with such laws and regulations could lead to the imposition of fines and penalties and further result in the deterioration of our business.
We may not be able to continue as a going concern.
Our consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. We have a history of operating losses that are likely to continue in the future. We have included an explanatory paragraph in Note 3 of our financial statements, to the effect that our significant losses from operations and our dependence on equity financing raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary should we be unable to continue as a going concern.
Our operations must begin to provide sufficient revenues to improve our working capital position. Additionally, we will require additional capital to construct our planned biodiesel facilities. If we are unable to raise additional capital we may not be able to continue as a going concern.
SPECIAL NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This prospectus contains forward-looking statements. This prospectus includes statements regarding our plans, goals, strategies, intent, beliefs or current expectations. These statements are expressed in good faith and based upon a reasonable basis when made, but there can be no assurance that these expectations will be achieved or accomplished. These forward looking statements can be identified by the use of terms and phrases such as “believe,” “plan,” “intend,” “anticipate,” “target,” “estimate,” “expect,” and the like, and/or future-tense or conditional constructions “may,” “could,” “should,” etc. Items contemplating or making assumptions about, actual or potential future sales, market size, collaborations, and trends or operating results also constitute such forward-looking statements.
Although forward-looking statements in this prospectus reflect the good faith judgment of our management, forward-looking statements are inherently subject to known and unknown risks, business, economic and other risks and uncertainties that may cause actual results to be materially different from those discussed in these forward-looking statements. Readers are urged not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of this prospectus. Readers are urged to carefully review and consider the various disclosures made by us in our reports filed with the SEC which attempt to advise interested parties of the risks and factors that may affect our business, financial condition, results of operation and cash flows. If one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or if the underlying assumptions prove incorrect, our actual results may vary materially from those expected or projected.

SELLING STOCKHOLDERS
This prospectus covers shares of our common stock, including shares of common stock underlying warrants, sold in our recent private equity offering in January 2007 to “accredited investors” as defined by Rule 501(a) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), pursuant to an exemption from registration provided in Regulation D, Rule 506 under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act. The selling stockholders may from time to time offer and sell under this prospectus any or all of the shares of common stock listed opposite each of their names below. We are required, under a registration rights agreement, to register for resale shares of common stock underlying the warrants and the shares of our common stock described in the tables below.
The following table sets forth information about the number of shares of our common stock beneficially owned by each selling stockholder that may be offered from time to time under this prospectus. Certain selling stockholders may be deemed to be “underwriters” as defined in the Securities Act. Any profits realized by such selling stockholders may be deemed to be underwriting commissions.
The table below has been prepared based upon the information furnished to us by the selling stockholders as of May 31, 2007. The selling stockholders identified below may have sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of some or all of their shares since the date on which the information in the following table is presented in transactions exempt from or not subject to the registration requirements of the Securities Act. Information concerning the selling stockholders may change from time to time and, if necessary, we will amend or supplement this prospectus accordingly. We cannot provide an exact amount, but have provided an estimate, of the number of shares of common stock that will be held by the selling stockholders upon termination of this offering because the selling stockholders may offer some or all of their common stock under the offering contemplated by this prospectus. The total number of shares that may be sold hereunder will not exceed the number of shares offered hereby. Please read the section entitled “Plan of Distribution” in this prospectus.
We have been advised, as noted below in the footnotes to the table, 12 of the selling stockholders are affiliates of broker-dealers. Each of such stockholders have represented to us that such stockholder purchased our common stock and warrants in the ordinary course of business, not for resale, and that none of such selling stockholders had, at the time of purchase, any agreements or understandings, directly or indirectly, with any person to distribute the related common stock.
The following table sets forth the name of each selling stockholder, the nature of any position, office, or other material relationship, if any, which the selling stockholder has had, within the past three years, with us or with any of our predecessors or affiliates, and the number of shares of our common stock beneficially owned by such stockholder before this offering. Beneficial ownership is calculated based on 52,532,202 shares of our common stock outstanding as of May 31, 2007. Beneficial ownership is determined in accordance with Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act. In computing the number of shares beneficially owned by a person and the percentage of ownership of that person, shares of common stock subject to options or warrants held by that person that are currently exercisable or become exercisable within 60 days of May 31, 2007 are deemed outstanding even if they have not actually been exercised. Shares of common stock underlying warrants or options exercisable within 60 days of May 31, 2007 are considered for the purpose of determining the percent of the class held by the holder of such warrants or options, but not for the purpose of computing the percentages held by others.
The persons and entities named in the table have sole voting and sole investment power with respect to the shares set forth opposite the stockholder’s name, subject to community property laws, where applicable, unless otherwise noted in the footnotes to the table. The number of shares owned are those beneficially owned, as determined under the rules of the SEC, and such information is not necessarily indicative of beneficial ownership for any other purpose. We have assumed all shares reflected on the table that were acquired in our private offerings will be sold from time to time. Because the selling stockholders may offer all or any portion of the common stock listed in the table below, no estimate can be given as to the amount of those shares of common stock acquired in our private offerings that will be held by the selling stockholders upon the termination of any sales of common stock.

USE OF PROCEEDS
We will not receive proceeds from the sale of common stock or warrants under this prospectus. We will receive approximately $34,259,260 from the selling stockholders if they exercise their warrants in full. The selling stockholders who hold warrants may exercise their warrants at any time until their expiration, as further described in the “Description of Securities.” Because the warrant holders may sell the warrants or exercise the warrants in their own discretion, we cannot plan on specific uses of proceeds beyond application of proceeds to general corporate purposes. We have agreed to bear the expenses in connection with the registration of the common stock and warrants being offered hereby by the selling stockholders.
DETERMINATION OF OFFERING PRICE
The selling stockholders will determine at what price they may sell the offered shares and warrants, and such sales may be made at prevailing market prices, or at privately negotiated prices.
MARKET FOR COMMON EQUITY AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS

3   As of the January 12, 2007, the 1997 Plan was frozen and no additional securities are available for future issuance under the 1997 Plan. All awards granted under the 1997 Plan are exercisable for shares of our common stock.
On November 2, 2006, our board of directors and stockholders approved and adopted our 2006 Plan. The 2006 Plan provides for grants of incentive stock options and nonqualified stock options, restricted stock awards, stock appreciation rights and performance stock grants. Under the 2006 Plan, equity awards may be granted from time to time for an aggregate of no more than 3,850,000 shares of our common stock as determined by our board of directors.
DIVIDEND POLICY
We have never declared or paid dividends on shares of our common stock and we intend to retain future earnings, if any, to support the development of our business and therefore do not anticipate paying cash dividends for the foreseeable future. Payment of future dividends, if any, will be at the discretion of our board of directors after taking into account various factors, including current financial condition, operating results and current and anticipated cash needs.
MANAGEMENT’S PLAN OF OPERATION
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our financial statements included elsewhere in this prospectus. This discussion contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of various factors.
In addition to historical information, this discussion and analysis contains forward-looking statements that relate to future events and expectations and, as such, constitute forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements include those containing such words as “anticipates”, “believes”, “estimates”, “expects”, “hopes”, “targets”, “should”, “will”, “will likely result”, “forecast”, “outlook”, “projects” or similar expressions. Such forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from those expressed or implied in the forward-looking statements.
As the result of the Merger, the Split-Off and the change in our business and operations from a day spa and salon services company to a technology company focusing on the production of biofuel, a discussion of the past financial results of our company is not pertinent and our financial results as consolidated with Kreido Labs, the accounting acquirer, are presented here. Thus, the discussion of our financial results addresses only Kreido Labs.
Kreido Labs is a corporation founded to develop proprietary technology for building micro-composite materials for electronic applications. In 1995, Kreido Labs began to develop the technology used in the design and assembly of our STT® Reactor. Kreido Labs thereafter sought to develop the technology to improve the speed, completeness and efficiency of certain chemical reactions, including esterifications and transesterifications, in the special chemical industries. We designed and developed the STT® Reactor which incorporates our proprietary “spinning tube-in-tube” design configuration to improve the speed and yield of chemical reactions. One of the EPA’s largest laboratories has been using our STT® Reactor-based technology since 2004 to develop and evaluate new chemical processes and develop and optimize protocols for use of the STT® Reactor by public and private entities. Beginning in the last quarter of 2005, Kreido Labs began to evaluate the advantages of the STT® Reactor specifically for the production of biodiesel. In the first quarter of 2006, Kreido Labs elected to focus exclusively on the biodiesel industry and began to prepare and execute our current business plan.
Plan of Operations
We plan to commercialize our proprietary equipment system for biodiesel production on an industrial scale and to become one of the leading providers of biodiesel in the United States and elsewhere. We expect to execute our business plan by generating revenues from multiple sources as follows; 1) by operating our own STT® Reactor-

Table of Contents

based Biodiesel Production Units with an anticipated biodiesel production capacity of approximately 100 MMgpy by the end of 2008, 2) licensing our STT® Reactor-based technology to others which may require one of our production units to be in operation, and 3) in the longer term, by investing in businesses that will develop or use our STT® Reactor-based technology for production of biofuels and specialty chemicals.
To date, we have accomplished the development and production of our STT® Reactor internally and the development of the STT® Production Unit by outsourcing to a professional engineering firm and a manufacturer of engineered packaged systems. Our engineering partner is R.C. Costello & Assoc. Inc. of Redondo Beach, California. This firm provides engineering design and improvements for chemical plants, natural gas plants and refineries, with an emphasis on process intensification. The firm has 11 years’ experience in reaction engineering, distillation and process safety.
Our manufacturing partner is Certified Technical Services L.P. of Pasadena, Texas. This firm has been a heavy industrial contractor and manufacturer of engineered packaged systems for 20 years.
We plan to directly market and distribute the biodiesel that we produce in our owned and operated facilities to diesel blenders and other distributors of diesel products. We plan to use diversified feedstock in our plants.
We anticipate that we will execute our business strategy with the following actions:
    place one pilot plant, including a pilot scale STT® Reactor, in the field by June 30, 2007, at an estimated cost of construction of approximately $1 million, which will begin producing biodiesel and glycerin in the third quarter of 2007;
 
    hire additional construction project management, manufacturing, production plant operations, sales, marketing and business development personnel, over the next eighteen months and beyond, if necessary;
 
    construct at least one of our own production plants equipped with STT® Production Units by the end of the first quarter 2008 at an estimated cost of approximately $15 million; and
 
    enter into discussion with parties interested in licensing the STT® Reactor for biodiesel and specialty and fine chemical production.
We are developing three biodiesel production plants, each of which will employ our STT® Production Units. The development of the biodiesel production plants will require significant expenditures on equipment and materials and we expect to use a majority of the proceeds of the January 2007 private placement in the construction of the pilot and production plants. As feedstock and biodiesel prices change or as the demand for superior biodiesel production technology increases, we may determine that it is in our best interest to sell or license our STT® Production Units in the near term in lieu of building our second and third plants as soon as we currently plan. Because of the compact size of our reactor and ability to process different feedstocks, we believe that our STT® Production Unit technologies will provide us with cost and efficiency advantages when compared to companies developing conventional biodiesel plants. In the execution of our business plan, we anticipate that we will increase our number of employees in the next 12 months to approximately 85 employees.
The three plants planned for development are expected to be located in Wilmington, North Carolina and Chicago, Illinois as well as in a location to be determined for which we are negotiating with a large terminal operator with operations currently in the Gulf region and southeast region of the U.S.
We expect that after our pilot plant is fully operational our executive team will begin discussion with parties that may be interested in licensing the STT® Reactor. Any current additional costs associated with these licensing discussions are expected to be nominal.
Since our business activities over the next 18 months will consist primarily of constructing up to three biodiesel production plants and pilot plant, the results of our operations and financial condition will reflect construction

operations rather than product sales-revenue generating operations. If we are successful in implementing our current business plan of building developing our production plants, then our results of operations will be those of a biodiesel refinery and marketer. Accordingly, the results of operations and cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2007 and the fiscal year ended December 31, 2007 are not anticipated to be indicative of the results of operations and cash flows for future long-term periods.
We believe that we can satisfy our cash requirements for at least the next 8 months, however we may need to raise up to an additional $20 million in the fourth quarter of 2007 in order to support our current plan’s funding needs.
Results of Operations for fiscal year ended December 31, 2006
     Operating Expenses
Loss from operations for fiscal year 2006 was $2.6 million, resulting from $1.5 million of research and development expenses and $1.0 million of general and administrative expenses.
     Other Income (Expense)
Other income (expense) for fiscal year 2006 was ($676,000), comprised principally of interest expense of $828,000 offset by other income of $149,000.
     Net Loss
Net loss for fiscal year 2006 was $3.3 million, equivalent to a loss of $2.40 per common share.
Comparison of Years ended December 31, 2006 and 2005
     Operating Expenses
Operating expenses in fiscal 2006 decreased compared to the amount for the year ended December 31, 2005. Research and development expense in fiscal 2006 decreased by approximately $400,000, or 21%, compared to $1.9 million in fiscal 2005. The decrease related to the commencement of the shift of production away from research and development and into design of our commercial STT reactor for biodiesel production which resulted in a reduction in shop and personnel costs in 2006. General and administrative costs increased to $1.0 million in fiscal 2006 from $630,000 in fiscal 2005. The increase was related to legal fees and consulting costs related to the preparation of the Merger. Additionally, the loss on sale of property and equipment and loss from retirement of assets was attributed to equipment and patents that were no longer relevant to our business. We expect operating costs to increase over the next few years as production activities increase and as we continue to grow and add personnel. Additionally, we became a public entity in January 2007 and will incur additional costs associated with the requirements of operating as a public reporting entity.
     Other Income (Expense)
Other income (expense) for fiscal year 2006 increased by ($323,000), or 92%, when compared to other income (expense) in fiscal year 2005 of ($353,000). In each of fiscal year 2006 and fiscal year 2005, other expense was comprised principally of interest expense of ($828,000) and ($534,000), and in each case offset by other income of $149,000 and $178,000, respectively. We expect interest expense to decrease in 2007 due to the conversion and retirement of debt in January 2007.
     Net Loss
Net loss for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2006 was $3.3 million, or less than 3%, of the net loss of $3.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2005. There were no net sales or gross profit for the years ended December 31, 2005. We expect to incur net losses for the next couple of years as we continue to develop our STT® Production Units.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Net cash used by operating activities for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2006 was $2.0 million.
Net cash used by investing activities for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2006 was $211,000.
Net cash provided by financing activities for fiscal year 2006 was $1.3 million consisting of long-term debt and bridge note financing. The cash inflow for the year ended December 31, 2005 primarily resulted from the issuance of short-term and long-term debt.
Concurrently with the closing on January 12, 2007 of the Merger of Acquisition Sub and Kreido Labs, which was treated as a recapitalization of our company for accounting purposes, we consummated a private offering of 18,518,519 units of our securities at a purchase price of $1.35 per Unit. Each Unit consisted of one share of our common stock and a warrant to acquire one share of our common stock at an exercise price of $1.85 per share. The warrants are exercisable for a period of five years from January 12, 2007. The private placement of the Units resulted in our receiving from the gross proceeds of $25 million, net proceeds of $23.1 million. We anticipate that the net proceeds of the private placement offering of the Units will enable us to carry out our current operating plan to the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2007. Based upon our projected activities, we believe that an additional $20 million in financing will be sufficient to support our current operating plan. However, if our operating plan changes, we may require additional financing at an earlier time. Financing may not be available on terms acceptable to us or our investors, and may be available only on terms that would negatively affect existing stockholders. If adequate funds are not available, we may not be successful in executing our operating plan as anticipated.
In connection with the Merger, all of the issued and outstanding convertible notes payable by our company were either converted into shares of common stock or repaid in full and all of the shares of preferred stock issued and outstanding were converted into shares of common stock. In addition, approximately 94% of the common stock purchase warrants issued and outstanding were exercised for shares of our company’s common stock on a net issue basis. The following pro forma balance sheet gives effect to the Merger and related transactions:

Consolidated Results of Operations for fiscal year ended March 31, 2007
     Operating Expenses
Loss from operations for the three months ended March 31, 2007 was $724,000, resulting from $20,000 of research and development expenses and $704,000 of general and administrative expenses.
     Other Income (Expense)
Other income (expense) for fiscal year 2006 was $192,000, comprised principally of interest income.

     Net Loss
Net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2007 was $533,000, equivalent to a loss of $0.01 per common share.
Comparison of three months ended March 31, 2007 and 2006
Operating Expenses
Operating expenses in the three months ended March 31, 2007 increased by $246,000 compared to $478,000 for the same period in 2006. Research and development expense for the three months ended March 31, 2007 decreased by approximately $311,000, or 94%, compared to $331,000 for the same period in 2006. The decrease related to the shift away from research and development and into the commencement of the construction of the biodiesel production plants and our commercial STT reactor which are being capitalized. General and administrative costs increased to $704,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2007 from $147,000 for the same period in 2006. The increase was related to legal fees and consulting costs related to the Merger and private placement offering, increased costs associated with a public company and an increase in administrative personnel. We expect operating costs, especially general and administrative costs to increase over the next few years as construction activities increase and as we continue to grow and add personnel. Additionally, we will continue to incur additional costs associated with the requirements of operating as a public reporting entity.
     Other Income (Expense)
Other income (expense) for the three months ended March 31, 2007 was other income of $192,000 compared to other expense of $190,000 for the same period in 2006. Other income for the three months ended March 31, 2007 consisted of interest income compared to the same period in 2006 consisting of $211,000 of interest expense offset by $21,000 of other income. We expect interest expense for 2007 to be minimal due to the conversion and retirement of debt in January 2007.
     Net Loss
Net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2007 was $533,000, or a 20% decrease compared to the net loss of $669,000 for the same three month period for 2006. There were no net sales or gross profit for the three months ended March 31, 2007 and 2006. We expect to incur net losses for the next couple of years as we continue to construct our biodiesel production plants.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Net cash used by operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2007 was $495,000 and was comparable to the $475,000 used in operations for the same period in 2006.
Net cash used by investing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2007 was $1.6 million which was a significant increase from $55,000 used by investing activities for the same period in 2006. The cash used in 2007 consisted primarily of the purchase and construction of equipment and facilities associated with the building of our biodiesel production plants. Costs of the plants consisted of labor and overhead, engineering and general contractor costs and the purchase of equipment such as centrifuges, tanks, control panels and other equipment and machinery used in the construction of the plants. We also invested $32,000 and $54,000, respectively, in patents for the three months ended March 31, 2007 and 2006.
Net cash provided by financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2007 was $22.9 million consisting primarily of the private placement sale of our common stock netting proceeds to us of approximately $23 million. This was offset by the repayment of outstanding notes and the payment of capital leases. The cash used in financing activities was $10,000 for payments of capital lease obligations for the three months ended March 31, 2006.
Concurrently with the closing on January 12, 2007 of the Merger of Acquisition Sub and Kreido Labs, which was treated as a recapitalization of our company for accounting purposes, we consummated a private placement offering

33


Table of Contents

of 18,518,519 units of our securities at a purchase price of $1.35 per Unit. Each Unit consisted of one share of our common stock and a warrant to acquire one share of our common stock at an exercise price of $1.85 per share. The warrants are exercisable for a period of five years from January 12, 2007. The private placement of the Units resulted in our receiving from the gross proceeds of approximately $25 million, net proceeds of approximately $23 million.
We anticipate that the net proceeds of the private placement offering of the Units will enable us to carry out our current operating plan to the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2007. Based upon our projected activities, we believe that an additional $20 million in financing will be sufficient to support our current operating plan. However, if our operating plan changes, we may require additional financing at an earlier time. Financing may not be available on terms acceptable to us or our investors, and may be available only on terms that would negatively affect existing stockholders. If adequate funds are not available, we may not be successful in executing our operating plan as anticipated.
Related Party Transactions
During 2006 and 2005, G.A. Ben Binninger, a director of our company was engaged as a consultant for Kreido Labs for which services he was paid $72,000 and $40,000, respectively. As a consultant, Mr. Binninger assisted in the development of specialty chemical opportunities for Kreido Labs.
During 2006 and 2005, law firms, of which a member was a director of Kreido Labs, were paid $7,000 and $54,000, respectively, for legal services performed on behalf of Kreido Labs.
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
     Basis of Presentation
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
     Revenue Recognition
Our revenues are expected to be derived from licensing our patented processes, leasing our patented equipment to carry out the licensed processes, providing on-going technical support and know-how, and in the future, the sale of biodiesel. Revenues from product sales will be recorded upon shipment. Revenues from technology licensing will be, based upon the nature of the licensing agreement, recorded upon billing due date established by contractual agreement with the customer or over the term of the agreement. For sales arrangements with multiple elements, we will allocate the undelivered elements based on the price charged when an element is sold separately. Through the March 31, 2007, we have recognized no significant commercial or licensing revenue. It is anticipated that once we have built and begin operating the commercial biodiesel production plants, the majority of revenue will be based upon the sale of biodiesel to distributors.
     Research and Development
Research and development costs related to the design, development, demonstration, and testing of reactor technology are charged to operations as incurred.
     Cash and Cash Equivalents
We consider all highly liquid investments with a maturity date of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents.

     Use of Estimates
Preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America 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 reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods covered by the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
     Depreciation and Amortization
The provision of depreciation of property and equipment is calculated when put into service on a straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets, generally ranging from five to seven years. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of the useful life of the related asset or the lease term.
     Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
We continually evaluate whether events and circumstances have occurred that indicate the remaining estimated useful life of long-lived assets may warrant revision or that the remaining balance of long-lived assets may not be recoverable in accordance with SFAS No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets. When factors indicate that long-lived assets should be evaluated for possible impairment, we use an estimate of the related undiscounted future cash flows over the remaining life of the long-lived assets in measuring whether they are recoverable. If the estimated undiscounted future cash flows exceed the carrying value of the asset, a loss is recorded as the excess of the asset’s carrying value over its fair value. No assets were determined to be impaired as of March 31, 2007 and December 31, 2006, respectively.
     Stock-Based Compensation
Prior to January 1, 2006, we accounted for employee stock-based compensation using the intrinsic value method supplemented by pro forma disclosures in accordance with APB 25 and SFAS 123 “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation” (“SFAS 123”), as amended by SFAS No. 148 “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation — Transition and Disclosures.” Under the intrinsic value based method, compensation cost is the excess, if any, of the quoted market price of the stock at the grant date or other measurement date over the amount an employee must pay to acquire the stock. Under the intrinsic value method, we recognized stock-based compensation common stock on the date of grant.
Effective January 1, 2006, we adopted SFAS 123(R) “Share Based Payment” using the modified prospective approach and accordingly prior periods have not been restated to reflect the impact of SFAS 123(R). Under SFAS 123(R), stock-based awards granted prior to January 1, 2006 will be charged to expense over the remaining portion of their vesting period. These awards will be charged to expense under the straight-line method using the same fair value measurements which were used in calculating pro forma stock-based compensation expense under SFAS 123. For stock-based awards granted on or after January 1, 2006, we determined stock-based compensation based on the fair value method specified in SFAS 123(R), and we will amortize stock-based compensation expense on the straight-line basis over the requisite service period.
For periods prior to January 1, 2006, SFAS 123(R) requires forfeitures to be estimated at the time of grant and revised, if necessary, in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from initial estimates. Previously under APB 25 to the extent awards were forfeited prior to vesting, the corresponding previously recognized expense was reversed in the period of forfeiture. There is no stock-based compensation expense for the quarter ended March 31, 2007.
     Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The carrying values reflected in the balance sheets for cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximate their fair values due to the short maturity of these instruments. The

35


Table of Contents

carrying value of convertible notes payable and capital leases approximates their fair value based upon current market borrowing rates with similar terms and maturities.
     Comprehensive Loss
Except for net loss, we have no material components of comprehensive loss, and accordingly, the comprehensive loss is the same as the net loss for all periods presented.
     Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In February 2007, the Financial Accounting Board (FASB) issued SFAS No. 159, “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities” (“SFAS 159”) which permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value that are not currently required to be measured at fair value. SFAS 159 will be effective for us on January 1, 2008. We are currently evaluating the impact of adopting SFAS 159 may have on our financial condition or results of operations.
In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements (“SFAS 157”). SFAS 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosure of fair value measurements. SFAS 157 applies under other accounting pronouncements that require or permit fair value measurements and, accordingly, does not require any new fair value measurements. SFAS 157 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. We do not believe that the adoption of SFAS 157 will have a significant effect on our financial statements.
In July 2006, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes (“FIN 48”), which is an interpretation of SFAS No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes (“SFAS 109”). FIN 48 clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise’s financial statements in accordance with SFAS 109 and prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. FIN 48 also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition. FIN 48 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. We do not believe that the adoption of FIN 48 will have a significant effect on our financial statements.
Critical Accounting Estimates
Capitalized patent costs consist of direct costs associated with obtaining patents such as legal expenses and filing fees. Patent costs are amortized on a straight-line basis over 15 years, which is the expected life, beginning in the month that the patent is issued. Patent costs are capitalized beginning with the filing of the patent application. The patents are tested for impairment annually, or more frequently if events or conditions indicate the asset might be impaired and the carrying value may not be recoverable. These conditions may include an economic downturn, new and/or competitive technology, new industry regulations and a change in the operations or business direction of the Company. The impairment tests include a comparison of estimated undiscounted cash flows associated with the assets carrying value. If the assessment determines that the fair value is less than the carrying value of the patent, an impairment charge is recorded to reduce the value of the patent.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements as defined in Item 303(c) of Regulation S-B, promulgated by the SEC.
BUSINESS
Overview of Business
Kreido Labs was founded in 1995 to develop proprietary technology for building micro-composite materials for electronic applications. We thereafter sought to develop the technology to improve the speed, completeness and

36


Table of Contents

efficiency of certain chemical reactions, including esterifications and transesterifications, in the pharmaceutical and special chemical industries. We designed and developed the STT® Reactor which incorporates our patented “spinning tube-in-tube” design configuration to improve the speed and yield of chemical reactions. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (the “EPA”) has been using our STT® Reactor-based technology (see “Our Biodiesel Production Technology” below) in one of its largest laboratories since 2004 to develop and evaluate new chemical processes and optimize protocols for use of the STT® Reactor by public and private entities.
Beginning in the last quarter of 2005, we began to evaluate the advantages of the STT® Reactor specifically for the production of biodiesel. We believe we have developed a lower-cost, higher output system for the production of diesel motor fuel that is derived from vegetable oils rather than petroleum and is classified under industry standards as biodiesel. Our business goal is to commercialize our proprietary equipment system for biodiesel production on an industrial scale and to become one of the leading providers of biodiesel in the United States and elsewhere. In the first quarter of 2006, we decided to focus almost exclusively on the biodiesel industry and began to prepare and execute our current business plan. By executing our business plan we expect to generate revenues over the next few years from multiple sources; first, from operating our own STT® Reactor-based Biodiesel Production Units with an anticipated biodiesel production capacity of approximately 100 MMgpy by the end of 2008 from our three production units; next, and likely after the first production unit is operating, by licensing our STT® Reactor-based technology to others; and, in the longer term, by investing in businesses that will develop or use our STT® Reactor-based technology for production of biodiesel or other products.
Biodiesel Fuel
Biodiesel fuel is a sustainable, renewable transportation fuel with a growing market in the United States and internationally. As an alternative to petrodiesel and other petroleum-based fuels, biodiesel has several advantages, including:
    extending domestic diesel fuel supplies;
 
    reducing dependence on foreign crude oil supplies;
 
    expanding markets for domestic and international agricultural products;
 
    reducing emissions of greenhouse gases and other gases that are regulated by the EPA; and
 
    being usable by existing diesel engines, while extending their useful lives.
As a result of the benefits that are expected to be derived from the widespread use of biodiesel, legislation, as well as taxation and public policy, favor and, in some jurisdictions, require the increasing use of biodiesel instead of petrodiesel.
To address the anticipated market demand for biodiesel, we have developed our STT® 30G Biodiesel Production Unit (the “STT® Production Unit”) a system of chemical processing equipment based on our patented highly efficient fluid dynamics-based process. This process permits accelerated rates of transesterification and increased yields over shortened production cycles, among other advantages. Our STT® Reactor-based technology, as applied to the production of biodiesel, is the subject of five issued U.S. patents (plus one pending application for U.S. patents), as well as international counterparts for most of these patents and applications. These issued patents expire between 2011 and 2023. See “Business — Licensing and Intellectual Property Protection,” and “Risk Factors — Our success will depend in part on our ability to obtain and maintain protection of our intellectual property.”
Our STT® Production Unit is made up of four basic components: (1) the feedstock delivery system, (2) our STT® Reactor, (3) the biodiesel/glycerin separator and polishing system, and (4) the methanol recovery system. We expect to manufacture the STT® Reactors ourselves and to construct the STT® Production Unit by securing the services of qualified third-party contractors.

37


Table of Contents

The spinning tube-in-tube technology employed in our STT® Reactor optimizes the specific chemical reactions required for transesterification, the process by which biodiesel is produced from vegetable oils and methanol. Our STT® Production Unit is based on the STT® Reactor and is “pipe to pipe,” meaning that it includes all the equipment necessary for the manufacturing process, from the ingestion of raw materials, or feedstocks, to the output of finished biodiesel fuel and glycerin. We believe that because of our smaller plant size, our ability to use a variety of feedstocks including refined oils such as soybean, palm, jatropha, canola, and castor; using methanol and minimal amounts of sodium hydroxide as a catalyst and our reduced waste in the through-put process, our STT® Production Unit will reduce the cost of production of biodiesel and make it economically competitive with other alternatives to petroleum-based fuels over a broad range of crude oil prices. We also believe that the design features of the STT® Reactor reduces the time required for manufacturing scale-up and, therefore, results in faster returns on the cost of installation than conventional reactor systems.
We have been developing our technology for 11 years at a total incurred cost of $20 million, principally for use in engineered materials, and the pharmaceutical and chemical industries. More recently, we have focused on the application of our system to the large-scale continuous production of biodiesel in commercial quantities. We will use the majority of the proceeds of the January 2007 offering to advance the commercialization of our technology. We are going to construct up to two pilot units in order to demonstrate the commercial potential of our technology. Our initial pilot plant is being incorporated in an operating Foothills Bio-Energies biodiesel plant and is expected to begin production on or before September 2007.
Additionally, we plan to construct three STT® Production Units that we expect to operate on sites shared with or adjacent to bulk liquids distributors. If we are successful in bringing our three plants on line, we believe we will have the capacity to produce approximately 100 MMgpy of biodiesel per year by the end of 2008 using a variety of available feedstocks. If we achieve this level of production, we are likely to seek to build, install and operate additional production units within the U.S. and license the STT® Production Units primarily to offshore biodiesel producers. To date, we have accomplished the development and production of our STT® Reactor internally and the development and manufacturing of the STT® Production Unit by outsourcing to a professional engineering firm, R.C. Costello & Assoc. Inc., and a manufacturer of engineered packaged systems, Certified Technical Services L.P.
We currently plan to directly market and distribute the biodiesel that we produce in our owned and operated facilities to diesel blenders and other distributors of diesel products through our own team that we plan to recruit and develop. We plan to use diversified feedstock in our plants.
The Biodiesel Industry
Diesel fuel is the motor fuel that is used in a compression-ignition engine which causes fuel to combust not by igniting the fuel with a spark, but by injecting the fuel into a highly pressurized combustion chamber. Currently, there are two principal types of diesel fuel — petrodiesel and biodiesel. Petrodiesel is made from petroleum feedstock and currently comprises substantially all of the diesel fuel sold in the United States and elsewhere. Diesel fuel made from vegetable oil or animal fat renewable feedstocks is called biodiesel. Biodiesel feedstocks include oils from soybean, refined palm, jatropha, canola, castor and rapeseed. To be sold and distributed as biodiesel, the fuel must meet governmental standards, such as ASTM D6751 in the United States and EN14214:2003 in the European Union.
Petrodiesel currently comprises over 99% of the diesel transportation fuel market. According to the Energy Information Administration, or EIA, of the U.S. Department of Energy (“DOE”) on-highway petrodiesel consumption in 2005 was approximately 39 billion gallons in the United States, or approximately 22% of all ground transportation fuel consumed in the United States in that year, and 228 billion gallons globally. Total United States diesel sales in 2005 were $93 billion, nearly double the 2000 level. We believe that on-highway consumption of diesel is growing at over 3% annually, as reported by the EIA based on the U.S. diesel quantity sales from 1999-2004, the last year in which it reported these data (see http://tonto.eia.doe.gov/oog/info/gdu/gasdiesel.asp). We also believe that use of diesel will increase as a percentage of total on-highway ground transportation in the United States for several reasons, including:

38


Table of Contents

    diesel will become less toxic and is considered to be “clean fuel” after compliance with the new low-sulfur requirements;
 
    diesel is generally recognized as more fuel efficient than gasoline;
 
    use of diesel engines in larger numbers of commercially successful automobiles; and
 
    light vehicles that use clean fuel provide governmentally-owned fleets with an option for increasing vehicle efficiency.
Despite these trends that indicate increased demand for diesel, the price of petrodiesel fuel closely tracks the generally rising cost of petroleum crude oil. Since 2002, worldwide demand for petroleum-based products has been growing significantly faster than supply.
Beginning on June 1, 2006, new federal laws went into effect that are likely to significantly affect the market for petrodiesel. These laws limit the amount of sulfur content allowed in diesel fuel, reducing the portion of sulfur allowed in diesel fuel for on-highway use by more than 95%. Reducing the sulfur level in petrodiesel would require additional processing. As a result, ultra low sulfur diesel, or ULSD, may result in price increases to users of the fuel to cover the cost of deep hydro-treatment to remove sulfur and the addition of additives required for lubricity. According to the EIA, ULSD imports in the last half of 2006 ran at an annualized 2.8 billion gallons per year and showed strong growth in the first quarter of 2007. (see http://tonto.eia.doe.gov/dnav/pet/hist/wd0im_nus-200.htm).
Biodiesel is diesel fuel produced from vegetable oils or animal fats. In the U.S., the ASTM biodiesel specification (ASTM D6751) defines biodiesel fuel as a fuel comprised of mono-alkyl esters of long-chain fatty acids derived from vegetable oils or animal fats. In Europe, the biodiesel specification is defined as fatty acid methyl esters. Biodiesel can be used in its pure form, known as B100, or blended in any ratio with conventional petrodiesel fuel. Typical biodiesel blends are 2%, or B2, 5%, or B5, and 20%, or B20. Biodiesel can run in any vehicle that can run on petrodiesel with few or no modifications though most vehicle manufacturers recommend using a blend of B20 or less. According to the National Biodiesel Board, biodiesel is available nationwide and can be purchased in the U.S. directly from biodiesel producers and marketers, from more than 1,259 biodiesel distributors, or at 1,016 retail pumping stations.
     Projected Demand for Biodiesel
Market demand for biodiesel has grown significantly based principally on the advantages of biodiesel over petrodiesel. Those advantages include:
    Biodiesel is made from renewable resources;
 
    When burned, in comparison to petrodiesel, biodiesel results in a substantial reduction of unburned hydrocarbons, carbon monoxide and particulate matter (with the possible exception of nitrous oxide);
 
    Biodiesel is biodegradable, nontoxic and not considered a hazardous material when spilled;
 
    Biodiesel is essentially free of sulfur and aromatics;
 
    The overall ozone (smog) forming potential of the hydrocarbon exhaust emissions from biodiesel is nearly 50% less than that for petrodiesel fuel;
 
    Biodiesel is registered as a fuel and fuel additive with the EPA and meets clean diesel standards established by the California Air Resources Board. B100 biodiesel has been designated as an alternative fuel by the DOE and the U.S. Department of Transportation (“DOT”);
 
    Biodiesel is safer to manufacture and handle;

39


Table of Contents

    Because of its greater lubricity, biodiesel is used as a premium additive to petrodiesel to improve engine performance and durability, to reduce wear on engines and to extend their life. The addition of as little as 1% of biodiesel will significantly increase the reduced lubricity of ULSD fuel;
 
    Biodiesel can use domestic feedstock, reducing the $250 billion the United States pays other countries each year for crude oil;
 
    Primarily as a result of higher petroleum crude oil prices, government subsidies, increased petrodiesel refining margins and costs, increased agricultural productivity, and improvements in biodiesel processing technology, biodiesel has recently become less expensive to produce biodiesel than petrodiesel; and
 
    Public policy, both as enacted into law and as enunciated by governmental agencies in the United States and elsewhere, favors the production and use of biodiesel fuel.
Based on these advantages, we believe that demand for biodiesel will continue to grow at accelerated rates both in the United States and internationally over the next several years. Biodiesel was less than 1% of the approximately 39 billion gallons of on-highway diesel fuel consumed in the United States in 2005. We expect that governmental incentives and requirements will be a principal driver of our forecasted increase in demand. One of the key biodiesel production legislative incentives in the United States is the Biodiesel Tax Credit of $1.00 per gallon of biodiesel blended with petrodiesel that is part of the Energy Policy Act of 1992, or EPAct 1992, and extended to 2008 in the Energy Policy Act of 2005, or EPAct 2005. Although this tax credit is due to expire in 2008, there is proposed legislation to extend this tax credit.
Another key element of biodiesel that supports our forecasted increase in demand is the broad functionality of biodiesel. Biodiesel can be blended with petrodiesel in any ratio. In fact, blends of only 1% biodiesel are often used to improve the lubricity of petrodiesel fuel by as much as 65%, and blends of 99.9% biodiesel are often blended to reap the benefits of “pure” biodiesel while still receiving the maximum tax incentives of “blending” biodiesel with petrodiesel. Since biodiesel can be blended with petrodiesel in any ratio, the potential market size is a portion of the $93 billion (39 billion gallons) of on-highway petrodiesel fuel consumed each year in the United States, and several times that amount worldwide, depending on the blending ratio used.
The rising demand for biodiesel may also reflect or track the increasing amounts of biodiesel that are forecasted to be produced through 2010. Although the existence of production capacity does not necessarily result in increased demand, we believe that increased availability of biodiesel as an alternative fuel will result in wider voluntary consumer adoption and increased production of both diesel vehicles capable of burning blends of biodiesel and petrodiesel as well as vehicles that will burn mixes in which biodiesel predominates.
     Projected Biodiesel Supply
Biodiesel use is still in its infancy, but its production in the United States is expected to grow substantially and reduce dependency on petrodiesel. In 2010, United States production is expected to be 1.8 Bgpy (billion gallons per year), and global production is expected to be 5.5 Bgpy. At January 1, 2007, approximately 105 biodiesel plants, concentrated in the Midwest, are in operation in the United States. These plants have a total of 864 MMgpy in existing capacity and 9.3 MMgpy in average capacity. The existing United States biodiesel production capacity of 864 MMgpy represents only 2.2% of the total diesel fuel consumed in the United States in 2005 (39 billion gallons). In addition, according to the National Biodiesel Board, 77 new biodiesel plants with 1.7 Bgpy in additional aggregate capacity and an average capacity of 25 MMgpy are currently under construction as of the first quarter 2007 (see http://www.nbb.org/buyingbiodiesel/producers_marketers/ProducersMap-Construction.pdf).

(BAR CHART)
     Economics with Respect to Petrodiesel
According to the Energy Management Institute’s Alternative Fuels Indexsm, the average producer price of B100 biodiesel across 52 major metropolitan areas in the United States during the week ending May 24, 2007 was $3.32 per gallon, and net of site specific transportation and handling costs, it was $3.15 per gallon. Biodiesel sells for a premium to petrodiesel for several reasons. First, B100 biodiesel is sold to fuel blenders, who are entitled to a $1.00 tax credit for each gallon of biodiesel blended with petrodiesel. Second, as noted below under “Governmental Legislation,” purchases of biodiesel are subject to legislative usage mandates. Finally, biodiesel serves end-users’ desires or requirements to use biodiesel because of lower toxicity, higher lubricity, absence of sulfur and other environmental and operational benefits. We believe that a biodiesel plant using a STT® Production Unit constructed on a Greenfield site and using readily available feedstocks will be able to produce biodiesel at a cost per gallon that is reasonably competitive with the cost per gallon of petrodiesel.

As shown in the graph above, only recently have crude petroleum prices and petrodiesel refining margins increased to such an extent that, after giving effect to financial incentives for biodiesel blenders, it has become less costly to produce biodiesel than petrodiesel.
In May of 2002, the EIA began to report monthly on the cost components that make up the retail price of petrodiesel. These cost components include: refiners’ cost plus profit, distribution and marketing, taxes, and crude oil. For May 2002, the EIA reported the refining cost component for petrodiesel to be $0.07 per gallon and it has steadily increased in recent years, reaching $0.68 per gallon in August of 2006, while averaging $0.51 per gallon for all of 2006. In February 2007, the refining cost component for low sulfur diesel was $0.55 per gallon, over 20% higher than the refining cost component for gasoline. An important factor in the refining cost component for petrodiesel relates to the reduction of over 95% in sulfur content as mandated by law and described below, and the high price of imported ULSD required to satisfy increasing on-highway diesel demand while meeting the 15 PPM standard. Moreover, since sulfur is an important contributor to petrodiesel’s lubricity, some refiners must employ other means to increase the fuel’s lubricity so as to not damage diesel engines. Most petroleum refiners use costly additives to accomplish this, adding further to the ultimate cost of the fuel.
The Biodiesel Production Process
Biodiesel can be made from renewable sources, such as:
    refined virgin vegetable oils;
 
    refined animal fats; and
 
    used cooking oils and trap grease.
The choice of feedstock is determined primarily by the price and availability of each feedstock variety and the capabilities of the producer’s biodiesel production technology. In the U.S., the majority of biodiesel historically has been made from domestically produced soybean oil. However, palm oil imported from Malaysia and Indonesia is quickly growing as a viable alternative due availability and expected supply elasticity.
The biodiesel manufacturing process has three distinct steps — the chemical reaction step, the separation step and the polishing step.
(FLOW CHART)
Chemical Reaction. In the chemical reaction step, a mix of biodiesel, glycerin and soap is created from the selected feedstock, alcohol and a catalyst. The collection of equipment that performs this chemical reaction step in producing biodiesel is referred to as the “reactor,” and the process typically requires an extended period of time. Depending on the type of reactor used, the mix of biodiesel, glycerin and soap produced requires differing degrees of further processing to separate the methyl esters comprising the biodiesel from the glycerin and soap, to clean or

42


Table of Contents

“polish” both the biodiesel and glycerin, and to recover excess alcohol from both the biodiesel and glycerin. Generally, the more efficient the reactor, the less downstream processing that is required. If the feedstock used is high in free fatty acids, an esterification step is required before the chemical reaction step in which two chemicals (typically an alcohol and an acid) form an ester having an acceptable free fatty acid level.
Separation. The methyl esters are separated from the glycerin and soap from the chemical reaction step effluent.
Polishing. The methyl esters are polished to remove impurities, if any. Any excess water, and soap is removed and excess alcohol is recycled into earlier steps in the production process train.
Biodiesel Feedstocks. The cost of feedstock is the largest single component of the cost of biodiesel production, accounting for 70% to 90% of the overall cost of producing biodiesel. Presently, there is no correlation between the cost of feedstock and the price of biodiesel. Although biodiesel can be made from virgin vegetable oils, animal fats and used cooking oils, most biodiesel producers consider virgin vegetable oils the only viable biodiesel feedstock for large-scale production, due to their relatively homogeneous and consistent compositions and reliable, scalable and more abundant global supplies. Prices for virgin vegetable oils have historically demonstrated greater long-term price stability and less short-term price volatility than crude petroleum oil, though vegetable oil prices have increased recently in anticipation of an increase in the demand for vegetable oil from increased biodiesel production. Additionally, the anticipated reduction in soybean production associated with the increased demand for corn based ethanol has also caused soybean oil prices to increase significantly recently.
The ability to produce biodiesel from various vegetable oils results in biodiesel being a more attractive to a fuel producer than a fuel that relies on a single feedstock, such as crude oil. It also makes it that much more important that the fuel producer have a biodiesel production unit that can use a variety of feedstocks and that can switch between them quickly and economically, one of the benefits of our STT® Production Units.
Worldwide biodiesel feedstock production has been increasing steadily. In 2005, worldwide production of palm oil surpassed soybean oil to take the lead as the most abundant vegetable oil produced worldwide. In the future, significant feedstock supplies may also be derived from a small tree known as jatropha carcus and eventually from algae grown in bio-reactors.

Farmers continue to leverage farming technology and methodology improvements to get more yield from their farmland. For example, according to the USDA’s Economic Research Service, soybean crop yields in the U.S. have increased 84% in the last 45 years, from 23.5 bushels per acre in 1960 to 43.3 in 2005.

     Forward Contracts
Due to fluctuations in the price and supply of feedstock, we intend to utilize forward contracting and hedging strategies to manage our commodity risk exposure and optimize finished product pricing and supply. We intend to do this to help guard against price and supply movements that often occur in the soybean oil markets. Hedging means protecting the price at which we buy feedstock and the price at which we will sell our products in the future. It is a way to attempt to reduce the risk caused by price fluctuations. The effectiveness of such hedging activities is dependent upon, among other things, the cost of feedstock and our ability to sell sufficient amounts of biodiesel and glycerin. Although we will attempt to link hedging activities to sales plans and pricing activities, such hedging activities can themselves result in costs because price movements in feedstock contracts are highly volatile and are influenced by many factors that are beyond our control. The market for soybean oil trades 18 months into the future. The animal grease market has no futures trade. However, there is a quoating system through the USDA that provides for price discovery for animal grease. There is not enough volume of biodiesel produced to currently justify a futures market. Similarly, there is no futures market for ultra low sulfur diesel, the petrodiesel product most similar to biodiesel. As such, there is no spot biodiesel price, making current price discovery limited. We intend to engage a forward contract consultant for risk management services.
Our Business Plan
Our business strategy is to exploit our proprietary biodiesel production technology, fast time to market and low-cost leadership advantages to establish us as a leading developer of biodiesel processing technology and one of the leading biodiesel fuel producers in the world. We plan to do so by generating revenues from diverse sources. Our business model is to own and operate biodiesel production plants in the United States that are equipped with our STT® Production Units and located at or adjacent to bulk liquids handling facilities near developed port facilities. As our first production unit becomes operational, we may license our STT® Production Units internationally to third-party plants in exchange for licensing fees, equity interests and royalties. In the future, as feedstock or biodiesel prices change or as the demand for superior biodiesel production technology increases, we may consider licensing or otherwise supplying STT® Production Units to selected producers in the United States in exchange for additional processing capacity, feedstock supply commitments, equity, licensing fees or production royalties in lieu of or in addition to building our second and third plants as soon as we currently plan. The solutions we offer to third parties range from providing STT® Production Units for greenfield projects to supplying STT® Production Units for brownfield biodiesel sites seeking retrofit or expansion including converted chemical plants. We may license our STT® technology for use in the manufacturing of other products such as pharmaceuticals or other chemical related products. In the longer term, we may invest in businesses that will develop or use our STT® Reactor based technology for production of biodiesel or other products.
We believe that it is important for us to have STT® Production Units installed in the field, producing biodiesel to prove their merit as commercial biodiesel production units. If our production units are successful, then we may be able to secure bank project financing and insurance for our biodiesel production plants in the U.S. and to license STT® Production Units to third parties.
Internationally, if ownership interests are not appropriate, we will license and supply our STT® Biodiesel Production Units in countries that are subject to the Patent Cooperation Treaty, or the PCT, or that have progressive policies on protecting foreign intellectual property. As envisioned, we will charge a combination of prepaid and recurring annual license fees and quarterly production royalties with our initial focus on joint ventures with offshore suppliers of feedstock located in Central and South America and Southeast Asia.
We anticipate that we will execute our business strategy with the following actions over the next twelve months:
    place one pilot plant, including a pilot scale STT® Reactor, in the field by June 30, 2007, at an estimated cost of construction of approximately $1 million, which will begin producing biodiesel and glycerin in the third quarter of 2007;

44


Table of Contents

    hire additional construction project management, manufacturing, production plant operations, sales, marketing and business development personnel, over the next eighteen months and beyond, if necessary;
 
    construct at least one of our own production plants equipped with STT® Production Units by the end of the first quarter 2008 at an estimated cost of approximately $15 million;; and
 
    enter into discussion with parties interested in licensing the STT® Reactor for biodiesel and specialty and fine chemical production.
We are planning on constructing three biodiesel production plants, each of which will employ our STT® Production Units. As feedstock and biodiesel prices change or as the demand for superior biodiesel production technology increases, we may determine that it is in our best interest to sell or license our STT® Production Units in the near term in lieu of building our second and third plants as soon as we currently plan. We believe that successful scale-up from our pilot to commercial scale STT® process intensification system, which is now being built, will enable us to provide price, efficiency and safety advantages when compared to other biodiesel production plants in development. The three plants under development are expected to be located in Wilmington, North Carolina and Chicago, Illinois as well as in a location to be determined for which we are negotiating with a large terminal operator with operations currently in the Gulf region and southeast.
The anticipated aggregate biodiesel production capacity of these three plants is approximately 100 MMgpy, and the anticipated average production of these three plants is 90 MMgpy. Further, we anticipate that these three plants may go on line as early as 2008.
To be brought on line, each plant must proceed through the following initial stages of development, among others:
    identification of specific sites and parcels;
 
    receipt of initial proposals from liquids handling partners at each of the plant site locations and negotiations for tolling fees and for the use of terminal infrastructures;
 
    construction of STT® Reactors and fabrication of the STT® Production Units;
 
    identification of diesel blenders with facilities in proximity to the sites;
 
    negotiations with onshore and offshore feedstock providers;
 
    data collection for the permitting process;
 
    completion of the permitting process; and
 
    construction of infrastructure and raw material delivery systems.
We expect to use diversified feedstock in our plants. We are negotiating agreements for a range of services required for the transport of materials to and from our facilities with major global bulk liquids handling terminal operators for the plants in North Carolina and Illinois.
Our Biodiesel Production Technology
     The STT® Reactor
We have designed our STT® Reactor to be the heart of our STT® Production Unit. The STT® Reactor is the component of the STT® Production Unit in which the biodiesel transesterification chemical reaction occurs. Using our “spinning tube-in-tube” design configuration, our STT® Reactor employs a flowing film concept instead of the

45


Table of Contents

volume-based methodology used in most conventional biodiesel reactor systems. Our flowing film format mixes reactants in an extremely narrow gap that is created between a highly-polished, rapidly-spinning rotor and a non-rotating stator. Reactants placed in this environment experience forces that induce highly efficient mixing at the molecular level. This level of mixing helps to dramatically improve the speed and yield of reactions which occur during the manufacturing process and enhances the quality and uniformity of the end product being produced. The flowing film format also helps to avoid problems and inefficiencies that affect traditional volume-based production, such as large temperature gradients, scale-up constraints, excessive waste and downstream processing.
In tests to date, our STT® Reactor has accelerated the speed of chemical reactions by up to three orders of magnitude and significantly improved yields. It also has enabled the control and quality of chemical processes in real time and dramatically decreased the time required for manufacturing scale-up. With a footprint of less than 30 square feet, our 11 MMgpy STT® Reactor is also relatively compact, allowing for additional cost savings and efficiencies on installation, maintenance and operations.
When producing biodiesel it is essential to precisely control the following reaction variables in the chemical reactor:
    relative reactant volumes (i.e., ratio of feedstock to alcohol to catalyst);
 
    reaction temperature (and ensuring that the temperature is consistent everywhere in the reactor);
 
    reactor residence time; and
 
    laminar shear field.
The STT® Reactor addresses these controls in the manner which we believe is superior relative to conventional reactor designs and methods.
The favorable characteristics of the STT® Reactor also provide our STT® Production Units with advantages when it is used in building or retrofitting a plant. A 33 MMgpy biodiesel production capacity Production Unit occupies about 9,500 square feet with some expansion capability. As a result, we anticipate that less capital and less time are required to build a plant and to install a STT® Production Unit. We also expect that it will require less time to obtain required permits for plants that use our systems and there will be greater options for the siting of these plants.
The STT® Reactor and process are protected by issued and pending United States and international patents, including PCT applications. Our issued patents expire between 2011 and 2023. Corresponding foreign patent applications are filed in a number of countries at the proper time in the PCT application process.
     The STT® Production Unit
The STT® Production Unit is a complete, pipe-to-pipe biodiesel production unit that includes all of the components necessary to take feedstock in on one end and deliver ASTM-quality biodiesel out of the other end. We have designed 10G and 30G STT® Production Units with the capacity to produce up to 11 million and 33 million gallons respectively (or 36,000 and 110,000 metric tons respectively) of biodiesel per year. The biodiesel production unit is made up of four basic components: (1) the feedstock delivery system, (2) the STT® Reactor, (3) the biodiesel/glycerin separator and polishing system and (4) the methanol recovery system.
Using our STT® Reactor, we believe that our STT® Production Unit offers operational advantages, including the following:
    dramatically reduced biodiesel reactor residence time of less than one second, compared to more than 30 minutes total reactor residence time required by conventional systems;
 
    more efficient transesterification process that produces negligible soap and requires less downstream processing;

46


Table of Contents

    multi-feedstock flexibility that enables switching between alternative feedstocks in a few hours rather than days for conventional production units;
 
    lower-cost catalysts;
 
    less energy consumption; and
 
    absence of contaminated production waste water.
     Overview of Our System
The biodiesel manufacturing process begins when the reactant materials comprised of the biodiesel feedstock and an alcohol/catalyst mixture are introduced into the STT® Reactor through ports in the rotor/stator assembly, which is driven by the electric motor unit. These reactants enter the narrow annular zone between the stator and the rapidly spinning rotor where they are thoroughly mixed by high shear forces into a flowing film in a few milliseconds. A heat exchanger jacketing the stator controls the temperature of the mixture.
The end product of the reaction (i.e., the biodiesel, glycerin, excess methanol and negligible soap) exits through a port at the other end of the rotor/stator assembly. Standard sensors for measuring temperature, monitoring reaction progress or gathering other information relative to the manufacturing process are incorporated along the rotor/stator assembly to dynamically monitor the reaction process. The STT® Reactor can also employ similar plumbing, wiring, controls and ancillary equipment (e.g., heaters and chillers) as a conventional stirred tank reactor, facilitating ease of installation in existing production plants.
The STT® Reactor achieves these advantages by inducing a physical phenomenon that is ideal for the mixing of reactants called Couette flow. The STT® Reactor induces Couette flow by mixing reactants in a narrow gap so that the reactants move as a coherent thin film in a high-shear field. We believe that we are the first company that has been able to practically apply Couette flow to chemical manufacturing.
Governmental Regulation
To be sold and distributed as biodiesel, the fuel must meet governmental standards, such as ASTM D6751 in the United States and EN14214:2003 in the European Union.
Agencies of the United States government, including the DOE, the EPA, the Internal Revenue Service, or IRS, the Department of Agriculture, or USDA, and more than half of the states and over 15 foreign countries offer biodiesel incentives, have mandates for the use of biodiesel, or both. There are other governmental incentives that do not directly reduce the net cost of producing or blending biodiesel, but that drive the demand for the fuel. For example, the IRS offers tax credits for investment in qualifying refueling property, the EPA will pay 50-100% of the cost for schools to upgrade and/or replace their buses and programs administered by the DOE indirectly require government fleet operators to purchase substantial amounts of biodiesel.
The principal federal incentives that we believe will have the greatest positive effect on our business are the following:
     EPAct 1992
The EPAct 1992 requires government fleet operators to use a certain percentage of alternatively fueled vehicles, or AFVs. EPAct 1992 established a goal of replacing 10% of motor fuels with non-petroleum alternatives by 2000, increasing to 30% by the year 2010. Currently, 75% of all federal vehicles purchased are required to have alternative fuel capability to set an example for the private automotive and fuel industries.
Under the Energy Conservation Reauthorization Act of 1998 (which amended Title III of EPAct 1992), vehicle fleets that are required to purchase AFVs can generate credit toward this requirement by purchasing and using biodiesel in a conventional vehicle. Since there are few cost-effective options for purchasing heavy-duty AFVs,

47


Table of Contents

federal and state fleet providers can meet up to 50% of their heavy-duty AFV purchase requirements with biodiesel fuel.
The biodiesel fuel use credit allows fleets to purchase and use 450 gallons of biodiesel in vehicles in excess of 8,500 pounds gross vehicle weight instead of AFVs. Fleets must purchase and use the equivalent of 450 gallons of pure biodiesel in a minimum of a 20% blend to earn one AFV credit. Covered fleets earn one vehicle credit for every light-duty vehicle, or LDV, AFV they acquire annually beyond their base vehicle acquisition requirements. Credits can be banked or sold. Compliance with the requirements under EPAct 1992 is a principal reason underlying the position of the U.S. Department of Defense as the largest domestic purchaser of biodiesel.
     The Biodiesel Tax Credit
In October 2004, Congress passed a biodiesel tax incentive, structured as a federal excise tax credit, as part of the American Jobs Creation Act of 2004, or the JOBS Act. The credit amounts to a penny for each percentage point of vegetable oil biodiesel that is blended with petroleum diesel (and one-half penny per percentage point for recycled oils and other non-agricultural biodiesel). Thus, for example, blenders that blend B20 made from soy, canola and other vegetable oils would receive a 20 cent per gallon excise tax credit, while blenders of B5 would receive a 5 cent per gallon excise tax credit. Biodiesel made from recycled restaurant oils, known as “yellow grease,” would receive half of this credit; for example, B20 blenders would receive a 10 cent per gallon credit and B5 blenders would receive a 2.5 cent per gallon credit.
The tax incentive generally is taken by petroleum distributors and substantially passed on to the consumer. It is designed to lower the cost of biodiesel to consumers in both taxable and tax-exempt markets. The tax credit under the JOBS Act was scheduled to expire at the end of 2006, but was extended in EPAct 2005 to the end of 2008. There are proposals pending in Congress to extend the tax credit to the end of the decade and beyond.
     EPAct 2005
Congress enacted the EPAct 2005, in August 2005 and included a number of provisions intended to spur the production and use of biodiesel. In particular, EPAct 2005’s provisions include biodiesel as part of the applicable volume in the renewable fuels standard (“RFS”) although the EPA is directed to determine the share allocated to biodiesel and other details through its rulemaking process. EPAct 2005 also extended the biodiesel tax credit to 2008 and included a new tax credit for renewable diesel.
The RFS requires a specific amount of renewable fuel to be used each year in the nationwide gasoline and diesel pool. The volume increases each year, from 4 billion gallons per year in 2006 to 7.5 billion gallons per year in 2012.
EPAct 2005 requires the EPA, beginning in 2006, to publish by November 30 of each year, “renewable fuel obligations” that will be applicable to refineries, blenders and importers in the contiguous 48 states. There must be no geographic restrictions on where renewable fuel may be used or per-gallon obligations for the use of renewable fuel. The renewable fuel obligations are required to be expressed in terms of a volume percentage of gasoline sold or introduced into commerce and consist of a single applicable percentage that will apply to all categories of refineries, blenders and importers. The renewable fuel obligations are to be based on estimates that the EIA provides to the EPA on the volumes of gasoline it expects will be sold or introduced into commerce.
In terms of implementing the RFS for the year 2006, the EPA recently released a rule determining that the RFS target for 2006, 4.0 billion gallons of renewable fuel in the gasoline and diesel pool, will be considered to be met, given the current expectations of production of both ethanol and biodiesel for this year. If the EPA had determined the 2006 target was not being met, refiners, blenders and importers would be obligated to make up the shortfall in the year 2007. The EPA is expected to release the final rule to implement the RFS by the end of 2006.
EPAct 2005 also creates a new tax credit for small agri-biodiesel producers with production capacity, not in excess of 60 million gallons, of 10 cents per gallon for the first 15 million gallons of agri-biodiesel produced.

Many states are following the federal government’s lead and are offering similar programs and incentives to spur biodiesel production and use. For example, Illinois and Minnesota have mandated the use of B2 in all diesel fuel

49


Table of Contents

sold in their respective states subject to certain conditions that include sufficient annual production capacity (defined as at least 8 million gallons). The mandate took effect in Minnesota in September 2005 and in Illinois in July 2006.
Approximately 31 states provide either user or producer incentives for biodiesel. Several provide both types of incentives. Approximately nine states provide incentives to biodiesel producers to build facilities in their states, typically offering tax credits, grants and other financial incentives. Two states provide fuel rebate programs, and two provide revolving funds for fleet biodiesel purchases.
     International Biodiesel Developments and Public Policy Initiatives
Various non-European countries have also instituted public policy initiatives to encourage biodiesel production and use, and have done so generally through a combination of fiscal incentives and mandates or voluntary targets, including Argentina, Australia, Brazil, Canada, Indonesia, Malaysia and New Zealand.
The following eight European countries have duty exemptions and, in most cases, mandates to incent and require the use of biodiesel: Austria, France, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands, Spain, Sweden and the United Kingdom. These countries account for more than 80% of the EU25’s potential biodiesel market.
Sales and Marketing
To date, we have conducted all of our business development and sales efforts through our officers and executives who are active in other roles. We intend to build dedicated sales, marketing and business development teams, which will develop and execute their respective strategies.
Research and Development
We have been developing our technology for 11 years and have incurred total research and development costs of approximately $16.2 million through the fiscal year ended December 31, 2006, of which approximately $3.8 million was incurred in the last two fiscal years. To maintain and expand our technology leadership, if we are able to generate substantial amounts of revenues, we may expand both the capabilities and capacity of our STT® Reactors and our STT® Production Units. Our initial pilot plant is being incorporate into an operating Foothills Bio-Energies biodiesel plant and is expected to be in production on or before September 2007. The pilot plant will allow us to train personnel in systems operations and refine operating procedures, as well as demonstrate the STT® Reactor’s ability to process various feedstocks. The pilot plant agreement has a term of one year and will result in nominal quarterly lease payments to us.
Engineering and Manufacturing
To date, we have accomplished the development and production of our STT® Reactor internally and the development of the STT® Production Unit by outsourcing to a professional engineering firm and a manufacturer of engineered packaged systems. Our engineering partner is R.C. Costello & Assoc. Inc. of Redondo Beach, California. This firm provides engineering design and improvements for chemical plants, natural gas plants and refineries, with an emphasis on process intensification. The firm has 11 years’ experience in reaction engineering, distillation and process safety.
Our manufacturing partner is Certified Technical Services L.P. of Pasadena, Texas. This firm has been a heavy industrial contractor and manufacturer of engineered packaged systems for 20 years.
Licensing and Intellectual Property Protection
We rely on and will use a combination of patent, copyright, and trade secret laws and know-how to establish and protect our proprietary technologies and products. Our success depends in part on our ability to obtain patent protection for our products and processes, to preserve our copyrights and trade secrets, to operate without infringing the proprietary rights of third parties and to acquire licenses related to enabling technology or products used with our STT® Reactor-based technology.

We hold approximately 12 additional issued patents on technology not directly related to biodiesel.
STT®, Magellan® and Innovator® are trademarks that we have registered with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office. We also use Cytovator and Kreido as our trademarks.
Competition
Since our business model calls for us to be both a provider of biodiesel production technology to other companies and also to own and operate our own biodiesel production plants, we compete broadly with companies that provide biodiesel production solutions and companies that produce biodiesel, renewable diesel and other bio-mass based substitutes for petrodiesel.
We face competition from companies that are developing products similar to those we are developing. The petroleum/fossil fuels industry has spawned a large number of efforts to create technologies to help reduce or eliminate harmful emissions from burning fuels and fuels that utilize non-petroleum feedstock. Fully integrated major oil/chemical companies have substantially greater access to resources needed to successfully enter the emerging alternative fuels market. Many of these companies have significantly greater financial, managerial, marketing, distribution and other infrastructure resources than our company. These greater resources may better position our competitors to arrange plant sites, contract for feedstock and negotiate product pricing with biodiesel fuel companies.
Using our STT® Reactor, we believe that our STT® Production Unit offers operational advantages compared to existing technologies, including the following:
    dramatically reduced biodiesel reactor residence time of less than one second, compared to more than 30 minutes total reactor residence time required by conventional systems;
 
    more efficient transesterification process that produces negligible soap and requires less downstream processing;
 
    multi-feedstock flexibility that enables switching between alternative feedstocks in a few hours rather than days for conventional production units;
 
    lower-cost catalysts;

    less energy consumption; and
 
    absence of contaminated production waste water.
Employees
As of May 31, 2007, we had fifteen full-time employees. None of our employees is represented by a labor union, and we consider our employee relations to be good. We believe that our future success will depend in part on our continued ability to attract, hire and retain qualified personnel.
Legal Proceedings
From time to time we may be named in claims arising in the ordinary course of business. Currently, no legal proceedings, government actions, administrative actions, investigations or claims are pending against us or involve us that, in the opinion of our management, could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on our business and financial condition.

Our directors hold office until the next meeting of the stockholders at which directors are elected, or until the earlier of their death, resignation or removal, or until their successors have been qualified.

Elements of our executive compensation program
Our executive compensation currently consists solely of base salary, performance bonuses and participation in broad-based benefits programs such as our 401(k) and medical benefits programs. We have also granted equity awards to our executive officers typically upon the commencement of their employment with the company or the execution of their employment agreements.
The initial cash compensation of our executive officers was determined through direct negotiations with the individual officers. The total compensation for our executives that is reflected in the summary compensation table above consists principally of their base salary, bonuses and equity compensation.
We recently hired additional executive officers, Lawrence Sullivan and John Philpott, who have been awarded cash compensation determined by our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer based upon discussions with Mr. Sullivan and Mr. Philpott, and taking into their account his roles and responsibilities, experience and skills, and expected contributions to the company and the amount of cash compensation being paid to our other executives.
We expect that, going forward, we will determine the specific amounts of compensation to be paid to our existing and future executive officers based upon the following factors:
  the roles and responsibilities of our executives;
 
  the individual experience and skills of, and expected contributions from, our executives;
 
  the negotiations relating to the hiring of our executives; and
 
  the amounts of compensation being paid to our other executives.
Our Chief Executive Officer will consider each of these factors, as well as any other factors he may determine are relevant at the time, in his discretion, in determining the amount of cash and equity compensation to recommend to our Board of Directors or its compensation committee in connection with the awarding of such compensation to new

executive officers. As a matter of corporate policy, no hiring, firing or compensation decisions relating to a corporate officer may be made and no equity or equity-linked compensation may be awarded to any employee, without the prior approval of our Board of Directors or its compensation committee.
Joel Balbien accepted the position of Chief Executive Officer of Kreido Labs in November 2006 in anticipation of the merger with the Company. His annual salary was established through direct negotiations between Dr. Balbien and the other Board members of Kreido Labs and is based upon the Board’s determination of a reasonable annual salary ($200,000) plus a quarterly bonus conditioned upon raising $25,000,000 of capital and performance bonuses to be paid as determined by the compensation committee. So that Dr. Balbien could be better aligned with the economic interests of the purchasers in the January, 2007 offering, we granted Dr. Balbien, who held no shares of stock in the Company, options to purchase up to 1,205,385 shares of common stock at the same $1.35 purchase price as the units of common stock and warrants. We believe that the 10 year term of the option is typical of options awarded to Chief Executive Officers of other public companies comparable in stage of development to Kreido. The vesting of the option over eight quarters, as well as partial vesting upon termination of Dr. Balbien’s employment for reasons other than Cause, were the result of negotiations between he and representatives of the Company. Dr. Balbien’s employment agreement served as the starting point for the compensation committee designing employment agreements and compensation programs for other senior executives of the Company described below.
Annual cash compensation
     Base Salary
We intend to pay base salaries that are competitive with similar positions in the independent energy sector and that provide for equitable compensation among executives of our company. Our Chief Executive Officer will recommend initial base salaries, and our Board or compensation committee will consider and approve base salaries based upon the elements of our compensation program outlined above. The base salaries of all employees, including executive offices, will be reviewed annually. We expect that our Chief Executive Officer will conduct these review and will, if appropriate, recommend salary adjustments, with the concurrence of our Chairman, to our Board of Directors or our compensation committee. Our Chief Executive Officer’s salary will be reviewed by our compensation committee. We expect all salary reviews to consist of detailed performance-based evaluations. We believe that a competitive base salary is a necessary element of any compensation program designed to attract and retain talented and experienced executives.
     Cash incentive bonuses
We intend to consider the award of cash bonuses to all employees, including our executive officers. We have established target bonuses for our executive officers, which take into account each executive officer’s annual salary. Actual payment of bonuses will be subject to the approval of the Board or, its compensation committee, in their discretion.
We expect bonuses to align our executives’ goals with our interests and the interests of our stockholders and to enable us to attract and retain highly qualified individuals. In addition to contractually provided bonuses, our Board of Directors or compensation committee has the right, in its sole discretion, to consider the grant of special cash bonuses to certain executive officers for exceptional achievements. None are currently being contemplated.
Equity incentive compensation
All of our executive officers have been granted stock options under one or both of the Company’s incentive compensation plans. In 2005 we issued stock awards directly to two executive officers. In the case of 2007 grants, each case the amount of the equity award was recommended by our compensation committee, and unanimously approved by our Board of Directors, based upon discussion with the executive, his or her role and responsibilities, individual experience and skills, and expected contributions to the Company. We believe that it is important the our executive officers have an opportunity to acquire equity positions in the Company commensurate to their positions in the Company. No direct stock award were made in 2006 or 2007 and none is currently contemplated.

Other compensation
     General benefits
All of our executive officers are eligible for benefits offered to employees generally, including life, health and disability insurance and our profit sharing and 401(k) plan (the “401(k) Plan”). These benefits are designed to provide an array of support to employees and their families and are provided to all employees regardless of their individual performance levels.
Eligible employees may make voluntary contributions to the 401(k) Plan up to limits permitted under law. In addition, we may, at our discretion, make profit sharing contrbituions to the 401(k) Plan. Profit sharing contributions made by us are subject to vesting restrictions based on years of service. We have not made any discretionary contributions and none are presently contemplated.
     Perquisites
We do not believe it is necessary for the attraction or retention of management talent to provide our executive officers with a substantial amount of compensation in the form of perquisites. In 2006 and 2007 we did not provide any perquisites to our executive officers.
     Relocation and education expenses
We offer reimbursement of relocation expenses to our officers from time to time. We encourage our executive officers to continue their formal education and will reimburse executive officers for a percentage of advanced degrees pursued by them that the Board of Directors or compensation committee believes are of benefit to the company.
Role of executives in executive compensation decisions
Executive officer salaries have been, and will be, subject to approval of the Board of Directors or our compensation committee. In determining the compensation for our executive officers, our Board and our compensation committee will consider the results of the annual reviews of our executive officers conducted by our Chief Executive Officer. Our Chairperson will also provide input to the Board of Directors and the compensation committee based on discussions with the Chief Executive Officer and his review of company performance.
Employment Agreements
     Joel A. Balbien
On January 12, 2007 and in connection with the Merger, we assumed the employment agreement between Kreido Labs and Dr. Balbien pursuant to which Dr. Balbien holds the positions of President and Chief Executive Officer.
Dr. Balbien’s Employment Agreement provides for a term of one year with an annual base salary of $200,000, and a bonus of up to $150,000 payable quarterly, with the first installment of $37,500 payable upon the closing of the Offering. The remaining bonus, or a fraction of it, shall be paid at the end of each subsequent quarter, based on achievement of performance-related financial and operating targets agreed upon by Dr. Balbien and by the Compensation Committee of our board of directors (or the full board in the absence of a Compensation Committee). Under the terms of the agreement, on January 12, 2007, Dr. Balbien was granted non-qualified stock options to purchase an aggregate of 1,205,384 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $1.35 per share. The term of the option is ten years from the date of grant. The option becomes vested and exercisable in eight (8) quarterly installments of approximately 150,673 shares each, commencing on the quarterly anniversary of January 12, 2007. If Dr. Balbien’s employment is terminated for Cause (as defined in the agreement), all the awards, whether or not vested, immediately expire. If Dr. Balbien voluntarily terminates his employment without Good Reason (as defined in the agreement), then all unvested awards immediately expire, and vested awards expire on the later of (i) 90 days after the termination of employment, and (ii) the expiration of the lock-up agreement. If Dr. Balbien’s employment

is terminated in connection with a Change of Control (as defined in the agreement), by us without Cause or by him for Good Reason, one-half of all unvested installments of the option vest immediately, up to a maximum of options to purchase 301,346 shares, and become effective the date of termination of employment, and remain exercisable up to one year thereafter. Dr. Balbien is eligible to participate in our incentive, savings, retirement and other welfare benefit plans in substantially the same manner and at substantially the same levels as we make such opportunities available to all of our managerial or salaried executive employees. We have agreed to purchase and maintain directors, and officers, liability insurance in the amount of at least $1,000,000 covering our officers and directors, including Dr. Balbien, as soon as practicable after January 12, 2007, but in no event later than February 11, 2007.
Subject to certain notice requirements, either we or Dr. Balbien will be entitled to terminate the agreement at any time. Dr. Balbien may terminate the agreement and his employment for Good Reason and if he does so, or if we terminate the agreement without Cause, we are obligated to pay him (i) any earned but unpaid base salary, unpaid bonus previously granted and unused vacation days, (ii) severance pay in the amount of six months of base salary and (iii) continued coverage at our expense under all benefit plans through the scheduled end of his employment. Dr. Balbien may terminate the agreement and his employment at any time other than for Good Reason by providing at least 90 days’ prior notice to us, in which case, we have no further obligation or liability to him except to pay any earned but unpaid base salary and unused vacation days.
Under the agreement, Dr. Balbien is subject to traditional non-competition and employee non-solicitation restrictions while he is employed by us and during any period in which he continues to receive his base salary following termination of the agreement.
     Philip Lichtenberger
On April 4, 2007, we entered into an Employment Agreement with Philip Lichtenberger, pursuant to which Mr. Lichtenberger will continue to serve as our Senior Vice President of Operations and interim Chief Financial Officer.

Mr. Lichtenberger will be eligible to earn performance based bonuses ranging from 20% to 50% of his base salary as determined by the Compensation Committee of our board of directors (or the full board in the absence of a Compensation Committee). The agreement also provides for a bonus of $50,000 for his service to our subsidiary, Kreido Labs, in 2006.
Mr. Lichtenberger was granted an option to purchase 580,000 shares of our common stock under the 2006 Plan at an exercise price of $1.18 per of which 145,000 options to purchase common stock vested upon execution of the agreement and the remainder of the options vest in eight equal installments of 54,375 each per calendar quarter beginning with the calendar quarter ending on June 30, 2007. If we terminate Mr. Lichtenberger’s employment in connection with a Change of Control (as defined in the agreement) or without Cause, or if Mr. Lichtenberger terminates his employment for Good Reason, one half of all unvested options will immediately vest and the option term will continue for five years from the date of termination of employment (but not beyond the expiration date of the option).

2006 Equity Incentive Plan
Before the closing of the Merger, our board of directors and stockholders approved and adopted the 2006 Plan. A total of 3,850,000 shares of our common stock are currently reserved for issuance under the 2006 Plan, of which awards for 2,740,784 shares have been granted as of May 31, 2007. If an incentive award granted under the 2006 Plan expires, terminates, is unexercised or is forfeited, or if any shares are surrendered to us in connection with an incentive award, the shares subject to such award and the surrendered shares will become available for further awards under the 2006 Plan.
Shares issued under the 2006 Plan through the settlement, assumption or substitution of outstanding awards or obligations to grant future awards as a condition of acquiring another entity do not reduce the maximum number of shares available under the 2006 Plan. In addition, the number of shares of our common stock subject to the 2006 Plan, any number of shares subject to any numerical limit in the 2006 Plan and the number of shares and terms of any incentive award shall be adjusted in the event of any change in our outstanding common stock by reason of any stock dividend, spin-off, split-up, stock split, reverse stock split, recapitalization, reclassification, merger, consolidation, liquidation, business combination or exchange of shares or similar transaction.
     Administration
The 2006 Plan is administered by the compensation committee of our board of directors (or the entire board of directors in the absence of such a committee). Subject to certain limitations set forth in the 2006 Plan, the compensation committee (or board) has complete authority and discretion to determine the terms of awards under the 2006 Plan.
     Grants
The 2006 Plan authorizes the grant to 2006 Plan participants of nonqualified stock options, incentive stock options, restricted stock awards, restricted stock units, performance grants intended to comply with Section 162(m) of the Code, and stock appreciation rights, as described below:
    Options granted under the 2006 Plan entitle the grantee, upon exercise, to purchase a specified number of shares of common stock from us at a specified exercise price per share. The exercise price for shares of common stock covered by an option cannot be less than the fair market value of the common stock on the date of grant unless agreed to otherwise at the time of the grant.
 
    Restricted stock awards and restricted stock units may be awarded on terms and conditions established by the compensation committee (or board), which may include performance conditions for restricted stock awards and the lapse of restrictions on the achievement of one or more performance goals for restricted stock units.
 
    The compensation committee (or board) may make performance grants, each of which will contain performance goals for the award, including the performance criteria, the target and maximum amounts payable and other terms and conditions.
 
    The 2006 Plan authorizes the granting of stock awards. The compensation committee (or board) will establish the number of shares of common stock to be awarded and the terms applicable to each award, including performance restrictions.
 
    Stock appreciation rights, or SARs, entitle the participant to receive a distribution in an amount not to exceed the number of shares of common stock subject to the portion of the SAR exercised multiplied by the difference between the market price of a share of common stock on the date of exercise of the SAR and the market price of a share of common stock on the date of grant of the SAR.

     Duration, Amendment and Termination
The board of directors has the power to amend, suspend or terminate the 2006 Plan without stockholder approval or ratification at any time or from time to time. However, no change may be made that increases the total number of shares of common stock reserved for issuance pursuant to incentive awards or reduces the minimum exercise price for options or exchange of options for other incentive awards, unless such change is authorized by our stockholders within one year of the date of such change. Unless sooner terminated, the 2006 Plan will terminate on November 2, 2016.

Broker-dealers may receive commissions or discounts from the selling stockholders (or, if any broker-dealer acts as agent for the purchaser of shares, from the purchaser) in amounts to be negotiated. The selling stockholders do not expect these commissions and discounts to exceed what is customary in the types of transactions involved.
The selling stockholders may from time to time pledge or grant a security interest in some or all of the shares of common stock owned by them and, if they default in the performance of their secured obligations, the pledgees or secured parties may offer and sell shares of common stock from time to time under this prospectus, or under an amendment to this prospectus under Rule 424(b)(3) or other applicable provision of the Securities Act amending the list of selling stockholders to include the pledgee, transferee or other successors in interest as selling stockholders under this prospectus.
Upon a selling stockholder’s notification to us that any material arrangement has been entered into with a broker-dealer for the sale of such stockholder’s common stock through a block trade, special offering, exchange distribution or secondary distribution or a purchase by a broker or dealer, a supplement to this prospectus will be filed, if required, pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act disclosing (i) the name of each such selling stockholder and of the participating broker-dealer(s), (ii) the number of shares involved, (iii) the price at which such shares of common stock were sold, (iv) the commissions paid or discounts or concessions allowed to such broker-dealer(s), where applicable, (v) that such broker-dealer(s) did not conduct any investigation to verify the information set out or incorporated by reference in this prospectus, and (vi) other facts material to the transaction. In addition, upon our being notified in writing by a selling stockholder that a donee or pledgee intends to sell more than 500 shares of common stock, a supplement to this prospectus will be filed if then required in accordance with applicable securities law.
The selling stockholders also may transfer the shares of common stock in other circumstances, in which case the transferees, pledgees or other successors in interest will be the selling beneficial owners for purposes of this prospectus.
The selling stockholders and any broker-dealers or agents that are involved in selling the shares may be deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of the Securities Act, in connection with such sales. In such event, any commissions received by such broker-dealers or agents and any profit on the resale of the shares purchased by them may be deemed to be underwriting commissions or discounts under the Securities Act. Discounts, concessions, commissions and similar selling expenses, if any, that can be attributed to the sale of securities will be paid by the selling stockholder and/or the purchasers. Each selling stockholder has represented and warranted to us that it acquired the securities subject to this registration statement in the ordinary course of such selling stockholder’s business and, at the time of its purchase of such securities such selling stockholder had no agreements or understandings, directly or indirectly, with any person to distribute any such securities.

We have advised each selling stockholder that it may not use shares registered on the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part, to cover short sales of common stock made prior to the date on which this registration statement shall have been declared effective by the SEC. If a selling stockholder uses this prospectus for any sale of the common stock, it will be subject to the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act. The selling stockholders will be responsible to comply with the applicable provisions of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act, and the rules and regulations thereunder promulgated, including, without limitation, Regulation M, as applicable to such selling stockholders in connection with resales of their respective shares under this registration statement.
We are required to pay all fees and expenses incident to the registration of the shares, but we will not receive any proceeds from the sale of the common stock. We have agreed to indemnify the selling stockholders against certain losses, claims, damages and liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act.
DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES
Authorized Capital Stock
Our amended Articles of Incorporation, filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Nevada on November 2, 2006, authorize the issuance of 310,000,000 shares of capital stock, of which there are authorized 300,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, and 10,000,000 shares of blank-check preferred stock.
Immediately prior to the Merger, the authorized capital stock of Kreido Labs consisted of 150,000,000 shares of common stock and 100,000,000 shares of preferred stock, no par value, of which 549,474 shares were designated as Series A1 Convertible Preferred Stock and 13,783,783 shares were designated as Series B1 Convertible Preferred Stock.
Capital Stock Issued and Outstanding
As of May 31, 2007, after giving effect to the Merger and the private offering of our securities, and taking into account the warrants to acquire shares of common stock and the grant of options under our 2006 Plan, including the new options issued to former holders of options to purchase shares of Kreido Labs’ common stock, there were 75,527,822 shares of our Common Stock issued and outstanding, on a fully diluted basis, including:
    52,532,202 shares of common stock issued and outstanding;
 
    options to purchase 3,905,767 shares of common stock which include options to purchase 2,740,784 shares administered under the 2006 Plan and options to purchase 1,164,983 shares administered under the 1997 Plan; and
 
    warrants to purchase 18,518,519 shares of Common Stock issued to the investors in our private offering and new warrants to purchase 571,334 shares of our common stock issued to former Kreido Labs warrant holders.
Description of Common Stock
We are authorized to issue 300,000,000 shares of Common Stock, 52,532,202 of which were issued and outstanding as of May 31, 2007. Holders of our common stock are entitled to one vote for each share on all matters submitted to a stockholder vote and vote together in one class, except as required by applicable law. Holders of our common stock do not have cumulative voting rights. Therefore, holders of a majority of the shares of common stock voting for the election of directors can elect all of the directors. Holders of shares of our common stock representing a majority of the voting power of the capital stock issued, outstanding and entitled to vote, represented in person or by proxy, are necessary to constitute a quorum at any meeting of stockholders. A vote by the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of the common stock is required to effectuate certain fundamental corporate changes such as liquidation, merger or an amendment to the articles of incorporation.

69


Table of Contents

Holders of the common stock are entitled to share equally on a pro rata basis in all dividends that our board of directors, in its discretion, declares from legally available funds. In the event of liquidation, dissolution or winding up, each outstanding share of common stock will entitle its holder to participate pro rata in all assets that remain after payment of liabilities. Holders of the common stock have no preemptive rights and no conversion rights, and there are no redemption provisions applicable to the common stock.
Registration Rights
On January 12, 2007, we entered into a Registration Rights Agreement with investors in our private offering. We are filing the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part in accordance with our obligations under the Registration Rights Agreement. We agreed to use our commercially reasonable efforts to cause this registration statement to become effective no later than 90 days after the date it is initially filed (or 120 days if such Registration Statement is subject to a review by the SEC). We also agreed to use our commercially reasonable efforts to maintain the effectiveness of this registration statement until all of the shares of common stock covered by the registration statement have been sold or may be sold under Rule 144(k) of the Securities Act. We will be liable for penalties under the Registration Rights Agreement payable in shares of common stock as follows (after giving effect to the filing of the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part):
    we must issue shares equal to 5% of the shares sold in the offering if the registration statement does not become effective on the date by which we are required to cause it to be filed or to become effective;
 
    we must issue an additional number of shares equal to 5% of the shares sold in the offering if the registration statement is not declared effective within 90 days after filing, if not reviewed by the SEC, or within 120 days after filing, if reviewed by the SEC;
 
    we must issue an additional number of shares equal to 5% of the shares sold in the offering if the registration statement is not declared effective within 120 days after filing, if not reviewed by the SEC, or within 150 days after filing, if reviewed by the SEC; and
 
    we must issue an additional 5% payable if effectiveness does not occur within 150 days after filing, if not reviewed by the SEC, or within 180 days after filing, if reviewed by the SEC, for a maximum penalty of 15% with respect to the Registration Statement not becoming effective by the date on which the Company is required to cause it to become effective.
Description of Preferred Stock
We are authorized to issue up to 10 million shares of “blank check” preferred stock, $0.001 par value per share, none of which as of the date hereof is designated or outstanding. Our board of directors is vested with authority to divide the shares of preferred stock into series and to fix and determine the relative rights and preferences of the shares of any such series. Once authorized, the dividend or interest rates, conversion rates, voting rights, redemption prices, maturity dates and similar characteristics of the preferred stock will be determined by our board of directors, without the necessity of obtaining approval of our stockholders.
Description of Warrants
Upon the consummation of Merger and the private offering of our securities on January 12, 2007, we issued warrants to purchase 18,518,519 shares of common stock to investors purchasing Units in the offering. These warrants give the holders the right to purchase such shares of our common stock for a period of five years at an exercise price of $1.85 per share provided that the holder gives us written notice at least 61 days prior to the intended date of exercise. We may call these warrants under certain circumstances.
At the option of the holder, the warrants may be exercised by cash payment of the exercise price or, in the event that the registration statement to register the underlying shares is not declared effective by the SEC by January 12, 2008, by “cashless exercise.” A “cashless exercise” means that in lieu of paying the aggregate purchase price for the

70


Table of Contents

shares being purchased upon exercise of the warrants in cash, the holder will forfeit a number of shares of common stock underlying the warrant with a “fair market value” equal to such aggregate exercise price. We will not receive additional proceeds if the investor warrants are exercised by cashless exercise.
The exercise price and number of shares of common stock issuable on exercise of the warrants may be adjusted in certain circumstances including in the event of a stock dividend, or our recapitalization, reorganization, merger or consolidation. No fractional shares will be issued upon exercise of the warrants. If, upon exercise of the warrants, a holder would be entitled to receive a fractional interest in a share, we will, upon exercise, round up to the nearest whole number, the number of shares of common stock to be issued to the warrant holder.
Also outstanding after the consummation of the Merger are warrants to purchase 571,334 shares of our common stock, issued to holders of warrants to purchase an aggregate of 506,389 shares of Kreido Labs’ capital stock prior to the Merger.
Description of Options
Joel A. Balbien, our President and Chief Executive Officer, was granted options to purchase 1,205,384 shares of common stock on January 12, 2007. John M. Philpott, our Vice President and Chief Accounting Officer, was granted options to purchase 150,000 shares of common stock on March 19, 2007. Philip Lichtenberger, our Senior Vice President of Operations and interim Chief Financial Officer, was granted options to purchase 580,000 shares of common stock on April 3, 2007. Alan McGrevy, our Vice President of Engineering, was granted options to purchase 580,000 shares of common stock on April 9, 2007. Larry Sullivan, our Chief Technology Officer, was granted options to purchase 175,000 shares of common stock on April 27, 2007. All such options were issued under the 2006 Plan at an exercise price equal to the fair market value of our common stock on the date of grant. There are also issued and outstanding options to purchase 1,164,983 shares of Common Stock which will be administered under the 1997 Plan, which options were issued to the holders of Kreido Labs options before the Merger.
Anti-Takeover Effects of Provisions of Nevada State Law
We may be or in the future we may become subject to Nevada’s control share law. A corporation is subject to Nevada’s control share law if it has more than 200 stockholders, at least 100 of whom are stockholders of record and residents of Nevada, and if the corporation does business in Nevada or through an affiliated corporation.
The law focuses on the acquisition of a “controlling interest” which means the ownership of outstanding voting shares is sufficient, but for the control share law, to enable the acquiring person to exercise the following proportions of the voting power of the corporation in the election of directors: (1) one-fifth or more but less than one-third, (2) one-third or more but less than a majority, or (3) a majority or more. The ability to exercise such voting power may be direct or indirect, as well as individual or in association with others.
The effect of the control share law is that the acquiring person, and those acting in association with it, obtain only such voting rights in the control shares as are conferred by a resolution of the stockholders of the corporation, approved at a special or annual meeting of stockholders. The control share law contemplates that voting rights will be considered only once by the other stockholders. Thus, there is no authority to take away voting rights from the control shares of an acquiring person once those rights have been approved. If the stockholders do not grant voting rights to the control shares acquired by an acquiring person, those shares do not become permanent non-voting shares. The acquiring person is free to sell its shares to others. If the buyers of those shares themselves do not acquire a controlling interest, their shares do not become governed by the control share law.
If control shares are accorded full voting rights and the acquiring person has acquired control shares with a majority or more of the voting power, any stockholder of record, other than an acquiring person, who has not voted in favor of approval of voting rights is entitled to demand fair value for such stockholder’s shares.
Nevada’s control share law may have the effect of discouraging corporate takeovers.

71


Table of Contents

In addition to the control share law, Nevada has a business combination law, which prohibits certain business combinations between Nevada corporations and “interested stockholders” for three years after the “interested stockholder” first becomes an “interested stockholder” unless the corporation’s board of directors approves the combination in advance. For purposes of Nevada law, an “interested stockholder” is any person who is (1) the beneficial owner, directly or indirectly, of ten percent or more of the voting power of the outstanding voting shares of the corporation, or (2) an affiliate or associate of the corporation and at any time within the three previous years was the beneficial owner, directly or indirectly, of ten percent or more of the voting power of the then outstanding shares of the corporation. The definition of the term “business combination” is sufficiently broad to cover virtually any kind of transaction that would allow a potential acquirer to use the corporation’s assets to finance the acquisition or otherwise to benefit its own interests rather than the interests of the corporation and its other stockholders.
The effect of Nevada’s business combination law is to potentially discourage parties interested in taking control of our company from doing so if it cannot obtain the approval of our board of directors.

CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS
ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE
Before the Merger, the independent registered public accounting firm for Kreido Biofuels was De Joya Griffith & Company, LLC, or De Joya Griffith, and the independent registered public accounting firm for Kreido Labs was Vasquez & Company LLP, or Vasquez & Co. Because the Merger was treated as a reverse acquisition for accounting purposes, future historical financial reports filed by us will be those of Kreido Labs, the accounting acquirer. Accordingly, our board of directors determined to change our independent registered public accounting firm from De Joya Griffith to Vasquez & Co. De Joya Griffith was dismissed as our independent registered public accounting firm on January 12, 2007 and Vasquez & Co. was engaged as our independent registered public

72


Table of Contents

accounting firm on the same date. As a result of being the auditors of Kreido Labs, Vasquez & Co. consulted with Kreido Labs and us regarding the Merger and the private placement offering that closed on January 12, 2007.
The reports of De Joya Griffith on the Kreido Biofuels financial statements since its inception did not contain an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion and were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles, but did include an explanatory paragraph relating to its ability to continue as a “going concern.”
In connection with the audit of the Kreido Biofuels financial statements since inception, and through the date of the dismissal, there were no disagreements with De Joya Griffith on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure or auditing scope or procedure, which, if not resolved to the satisfaction of De Joya Griffith, would have caused De Joya Griffith to make reference to the matter in its reports.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders
Kreido Laboratories
We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Kreido Laboratories, formerly known as Holl Technologies Company (a development stage company), as of December 31, 2006 and 2005, and the related statements of operations, stockholders’ equity (capital deficit) and cash flows for the years then ended and for the period from January 13, 1995 (inception) to December 31, 2006. 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 financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Kreido Laboratories as of December 31, 2006 and 2005, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended and for the period from January 13, 1995 (inception) to December 31, 2006 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. As more fully discussed in Note 3 to the financial statements, the Company has incurred significant losses in recent years, has an accumulated deficit of $23,126,000 and a total capital deficit of $5,860,000 at December 31, 2006. It has used all of its available cash in its operating activities in recent years and has a significant working capital deficiency. These matters raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in these regards are also discussed in Note 3 to the financial statements. The aforementioned financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

NOTE 1 ORGANIZATION
Kreido Laboratories formerly known as Holl Technologies Company (“Kreido” or “the Company”), was incorporated on January 13, 1995 under the laws of the State of California. Since incorporation, the Company has been engaged in activities required to develop, patent and commercialize its products. The market for these products is developing in parallel to the Company’s activities. The Company considers itself a development stage enterprise because it has not yet earned significant revenue from its commercial products. The Company creates and intends to license innovative chemical and chemical reacting systems.
The Company is the creator of reactor technology that is designed to enhance the manufacturing of a broad range of chemical products. Leveraging its proprietary STT® reactor technology (named for its spinning tube-in-tube design), Kreido partners with clients to deliver cost-effective manufacturing solutions. The Company continues to develop partnerships with a variety of global companies. Committed to the progress of green chemistry, Kreido has collaborations with academia, industry, and government agencies like the Environmental Protection Agency (“EPA”).
The cornerstone of the Company’s technology is its patented STT® (Spinning Tube in Tube) diffusional chemical reacting system, which is both a licensable process and a licensable system. In 2005, the Company demonstrated how the STT™ could make biodiesel fuel from vegetable oil in less than a second with complete conversion and less undesirable by-products. The Company has continued to pursue this activity and is in the process of building a pilot production plant and will begin construction of the first of three commercial biodiesel production factories in the United States that it expects will produce approximately 30 million gallon per year.
Kreido Biofuels, Inc. was incorporated as Gemwood Productions, Inc. under the laws of the State of Nevada on February 7, 2005. It changed its name from Gemwood Productions, Inc. to Kreido Biofuels, Inc. on November 2, 2006. The Company took its current form on January 12, 2007 when Kreido Laboratories completed a reverse triangular merger with Kreido Biofuels, Inc. (Note 12).
NOTE 2 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Revenue Recognition
The Company’s revenues are expected to be derived from licensing its patented processes, leasing its patented equipment to carry out the licensed processes, providing on-going technical support and know-how, and in the future, the sale of biodiesel. Revenues from product sales will be recorded upon shipment. Revenues from technology licensing will be, based upon the nature of the licensing agreement, recorded upon billing due date established by contractual agreement with the customer or over the term of the agreement. For sales arrangements with multiple elements, the Company will allocate the undelivered elements based on the price charged when an element is sold separately. Through the end of 2006, the Company had recognized no significant commercial or licensing revenue. It is anticipated that once the Company has built and begins operating the commercial biodiesel production plants, the majority of revenue will be based upon the sale of biodiesel to distributors.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid investments with a maturity date of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents.
Depreciation and Amortization
The provision for depreciation of property and equipment is calculated on the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets, generally ranging from five to seven years. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of the useful life of the related asset or the lease term.
Patents
Capitalized patent costs consist of direct costs associated with obtaining patents such as legal expenses and filing fees. Patent costs are amortized on a straight-line basis over 15 years, which is the expected life,

F-7


Table of Contents

beginning in the month that the patent is issued. Patent costs are capitalized beginning with the filing of the patent application.
Research and Development Costs
Research and development costs related to the design, development, demonstration, and testing of reactor technology are charged to expense as incurred.
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes 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. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.
Stock-Based Compensation
Prior to January 1, 2006, the Company accounted for employee stock-based compensation using the intrinsic value method supplemented by pro forma disclosures in accordance with APB 25 and SFAS 123 “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation” (“SFAS 123”), as amended by SFAS No. 148 “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation—Transition and Disclosures.” Under the intrinsic value based method, compensation cost is the excess, if any, of the quoted market price of the stock at the grant date or other measurement date over the amount an employee must pay to acquire the stock. Under the intrinsic value method, the Company has recognized stock-based compensation common stock on the date of grant.
Effective January 1, 2006 the Company adopted SFAS 123(R) “Share Based Payment” using the modified prospective approach and accordingly prior periods have not been restated to reflect the impact of SFAS 123(R). Under SFAS 123(R), stock-based awards granted prior to January 1, 2006 will be charged to expense over the remaining portion of their vesting period. These awards will be charged to expense under the straight-line method using the same fair value measurements which were used in calculating pro forma stock-based compensation expense under SFAS 123. For stock-based awards granted on or after January 1, 2006, the Company will determine stock-based compensation based on the fair value method specified in SFAS 123(R), and will amortize stock-based compensation expense on the straight-line basis over the requisite service period.
For periods prior to January 1, 2006, SFAS 123(R) requires forfeitures to be estimated at the time of grant and revised, if necessary, in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from initial estimates. Previously under APB 25 to the extent awards were forfeited prior to vesting, the corresponding previously recognized expense was reversed in the period of forfeiture. There is no stock-based compensation expense for the year ended December 31, 2006.
SFAS 123 requires the Company to provide pro-forma information regarding net loss as if compensation cost for the stock options granted to the Company’s employees had been determined in accordance with the fair value based method prescribed in SFAS 123. Options granted to non-employees are recognized in these financial statements as compensation expense under SFAS 123 using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model.
If the fair value based method under FAS 123 had been applied in measuring stock-based compensation expense for the year ended December 31, 2005, the pro forma effects on net loss and net loss per share would have been as follows:

The fair value of options granted during 2005 was determined using a minimum value pricing model with the following assumptions: risk-free interest rates from 3.24% to 4.46%, expected lives of five to ten years and volatility of 0.01%. A pro forma income tax benefit has not been reflected due to the Company’s uncertain ability to generate future taxable income.
Use of Estimates
The Company’s management has made a number of estimates and assumptions relating to the reporting of assets and liabilities and expenses and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities to prepare these financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The carrying values reflected in the balance sheets for cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximate their fair values due to the short maturity of these instruments. The carrying value of convertible notes payable and capital leases approximates their fair value based upon current market borrowing rates with similar terms and maturities.
Comprehensive Loss
Except for net loss, the Company has no material components of comprehensive loss, and accordingly, the comprehensive loss is the same as the net loss for all periods presented.
Net Loss Per Share
The Company calculates earnings per share in accordance with SFAS No. 128, “Earnings per Share.” Basic earnings per share excludes any dilutive effects of options, warrants and convertible securities but does include the restricted shares of common stock issued. Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential dilution that would occur if securities of other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted to common stock. Common stock equivalent shares from all stock options, warrants and convertible securities for all years presented have been excluded from this computation as their effect is anti-dilutive.
Basic loss per common share is computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted average shares outstanding during the period in accordance with SFAS No. 128. Since the effect of the assumed exercise of common stock options and other convertible securities was anti-dilutive, basic and diluted loss per share as presented on the consolidated statements of operations are the same.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In February 2007, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued SFAS No. 159, “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities” (“SFAS 159”) which permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value that are not currently required to be measured at fair value. SFAS 159 will be effective for the Company on January 1, 2008. The Company

F-9


Table of Contents

is currently evaluating the impact of adopting SFAS 159 may have on its financial condition or results of operations.
In September 2006, the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 108, “Considering the Effects of Prior Year Misstatements when Quantifying Misstatements in Current Year Financial Statements” (“SAB 108”). This SAB provides guidance on the consideration of the effects of prior year misstatements in quantifying current year misstatements for the purpose of a materiality assessment. SAB 108 establishes an approach that requires quantification of financial statement errors based on the effects on each of the company’s balance sheets, statements of operations and related financial statement disclosures. The SAB permits existing public companies to record the cumulative effect of initially applying this approach in the first year ending after November 15, 2006 by recording the necessary correcting adjustments to the carrying values of assets and liabilities as of the beginning of that year with the offsetting adjustment recorded to the opening balance of retained earnings. Additionally, the use of the cumulative effect transition method requires detailed disclosure of the nature and amount of each individual error being corrected through the cumulative adjustment and how and when it arose. The Company is currently evaluating the impact SAB 108 may have on its financial condition or results of operations.
In September 2006, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Issues No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements” (“SFAS 157”), which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS 157 applies under other accounting pronouncements that require or permit fair value measurements, and, accordingly, does not require any new fair value measurements. This statement is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is encouraged, provided that the reporting company has not yet issued financial statements for that fiscal year, including any financial statements for an interim period within that fiscal year. The Company does not believe that the adoption of SFAS 157 will have a significant effect on its financial statements.
In July 2006, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes (“FIN 48”) , which is an interpretation of SFAS No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes (“SFAS 109”). FIN 48 clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise’s financial statements in accordance with SFAS 109 and prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. FIN 48 also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition. FIN 48 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. The Company does not believe that the adoption of FIN 48 will have a significant effect on its financial statements.
In May 2005, the FASB issued SFAS No. 154, “Accounting Changes and Error Corrections” (“SFAS No. 154”). SFAS No. 154 is a replacement of Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 20 and SFAS No. 3. SFAS No. 154 provides guidance on the accounting for and reporting of accounting changes and error corrections. It establishes retrospective application as the required method for reporting a change in accounting principle. SFAS No. 154 provides guidance for determining whether retrospective application of a change in accounting principle is impracticable and for reporting a change when retrospective application is impracticable. SFAS No. 154 also addresses the reporting of a correction of an error by restating previously issued financial statements. SFAS No 154 is effective for accounting changes and corrections of errors made in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2005. The Company is currently evaluating the impact SFAS 154 may have on its financial condition or results of operations.
In December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued SFAS No. 153, “Exchanges of Nonmonetary Assets, an amendment of APB Opinion No. 29, Accounting for Nonmonetary Transactions.” The amendments made by Statement 153 are based on the principle that exchanges of nonmonetary assets should be measured based on the fair value of the assets exchanged. Further, the amendments eliminate the narrow exception for nonmonetary exchanges of similar productive assets and replace it with a broader exception for exchanges of non-monetary assets that do not have commercial substance. Previously, Opinion 29 required that the accounting for an exchange of a productive asset for a

F-10


Table of Contents

similar productive asset or an equivalent interest in the same or similar productive asset should be based on the recorded amount of the asset relinquished. Opinion 29 provided an exception to its basic measurement principle (fair value) for exchanges of similar productive assets. The FASB believes that exception required that some non-monetary exchanges, although commercially substantive, be recorded on a carryover basis. By focusing the exception on exchanges that lack commercial substance, the FASB believes this statement produces financial reporting that more faithfully represents the economics of the transactions. SFAS 153 is effective for non-monetary asset exchanges occurring in fiscal periods beginning after June 15, 2005. Earlier application is permitted for non-monetary asset exchanges occurring in fiscal periods beginning after the date of issuance. The provisions of SFAS 153 shall be applied prospectively. The Company is currently evaluating the impact SFAS 153 may have on its financial condition or results of operations.
NOTE 3 LIQUIDITY AND GOING CONCERN ISSUES
The Company, a development stage company, has suffered recurring losses from operations and at December 31, 2006 had a net capital deficiency that raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern.
The Company currently expects that cash raised from financing will continue to provide sufficient cash to fund its projected operations for the immediately foreseeable future and believes additional financing will be available if and when needed.
If the Company is unable to achieve projected operating results and/or obtain such additional financing if and when needed, management will be required to curtail growth plans and scale back planned development activities. No assurances can be given that the Company will be successful in raising additional financing should such financing be required by future operations.
Subsequent Events
In January 2007, the Company, in connection with the completion of a reverse triangular merger with a publicly traded company, Kreido Biofuels, Inc. (Kreido Biofuels), completed a private placement offering of $25 million with net proceeds to Kreido Biofuels of $23.1 million and the cancellation of $250,000 in indebtedness and the repayment of $123,000 in notes outstanding (Note 12).
NOTE 4 PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT
Property and equipment at December 31, 2006 and 2005 is summarized as follows:
                 
    2006   2005
     
Furniture and fixtures
  $ 43,000     $ 43,000  
Machinery and equipment
    617,000       461,000

    (500,000 )     (409,000 )
     
Net book value
  $ 322,000     $ 252,000  
     
Depreciation expense for the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2005 was $92,000 and $130,000, respectively, including related depreciation for capital leases. Equipment recorded under capital leases totaled $348,000 and $226,000 at December 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively.
NOTE 5 INCOME TAXES
Income taxes principally consist of minimum franchise taxes for the State of California. At December 31, 2006 and 2005, the Company had available net operating loss carry forwards totaling approximately $16,700,000 and $14,500,000 for both federal income tax purposes and California state tax purposes, which

F-11


Table of Contents

expire beginning in tax year 2010. Additionally, at December 31, 2006, the Company had state tax credits of approximately $400,000. For federal net operating losses generated before 1997, the carryforward period is 15 years. For federal net operating loss generated after 1997, the carryforward period is 20 years. For California state tax purposes, the Company’s net operating losses were classified under Eligible Small Business (ESB). For ESB net operating loss generated from January 1, 1994 through December 31, 1999, the carryforward period is 5 years. For ESB net operating loss generated beginning on January 1, 2000, the carryforward period is 10 years.
Deferred tax assets consist principally of the tax effect of net operating loss carry forwards. In assessing the potential realization of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the Company attaining future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. Due to the uncertainty surrounding the realization of the benefits of its tax attributes, including net operating loss carry forwards in future tax returns, the Company has fully reserved its deferred tax assets as of December 31, 2006 and 2005.
In addition, the utilization of net operating loss carry forwards may be limited due to restrictions imposed under applicable federal and state income tax laws due to a change in ownership.
NOTE 6 STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION
The Company has recorded in general and administrative expenses, $5,000 and $4,000 of compensation expense in 2006 and 2005, respectively, relating to stock options issued to non-employees for services rendered during those years.
Upon the adoption of SFAS123(R), the Company recorded $41,000 of compensation costs relating to stock options granted to employees. The amounts recorded represent equity-based compensation expense related to options that were issued in from 2001 to 2006. The compensation costs are based on the fair value at the grant date. There was no such expense recorded during our fiscal year 2005.
The fair value of the options issued during the year ended December 31, 2006 was estimated using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following assumptions: risk free interest rates between 4.45% and 5.18 %, expected life of five (5) years and expected volatility or 0.01%.
Summary stock option activity is as follows:
                 
            Weighted Average
    Number of Options   Exercise Price
     
Balance at December 31, 2004
    471,853     $ 0.70

Balance at December 31, 2006
    1,032,556     $ 0.28  
     
For options granted under the intrinsic-value-based method, the Company recorded $5,000 and $4,000 of deferred compensation as additional paid-in capital based on the difference between the market price of the common stock and the option exercise price at the date of grant during 2006 and 2005, respectively. Related compensation expense of $14,000 and $33,000 was recognized in 2006 and 2005, respectively.

The rights, preferences and privileges of the Series A1 and Series B1 preferred stock are listed below:
Conversion Rights
Each share of the preferred stock outstanding is convertible, at the option of the holder, into common stock at the rate of one share of common stock for each share of the preferred stock, adjustable for certain dilutive events.
Such conversion will occur automatically upon the closing of a registered public offering of the Company’s common stock that yields aggregate proceeds to the Company of at least $30,000,000 at a per share price of at least $5.00.
Dividend Rights
Each fiscal year, the holders of shares of Series B1 Preferred Stock are entitled to receive, before any dividends are paid or declared and set aside for the Series A1 Preferred Stock or the Common Stock, out of funds legally available for that purpose, cumulative dividends at a rate of eight percent (8%) per annum, payable in cash only. Such cumulative dividends accrue from the date of issuance and are calculated through the earliest of (I) the conversion of Series B1 Preferred Stock into Common Stock, (ii) the redemption of Series B1 Preferred Stock or (iii) the liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company. The holders of the Series B1 Preferred Stock are entitled to participate, on an as-converted basis, in all dividends, whether payable in cash, property or stock, that are declared on any of the Common Stock. Cumulative dividends for Series B1 Preferred Stock as of December 31, 2006 and 2005 were $2,155,000 and $1,354,000, respectively.
Each fiscal year, the holders of shares of Series A1 Preferred Stock are entitled to receive, before any dividends are paid or declared and set aside for the Common Stock, out of funds legally available for that purpose, cumulative dividends at a rate of eight percent (8%) per annum, payable in cash only.

The holders of the Series A1 Preferred Stock are entitled to participate, on an as-converted basis, in all dividends, whether payable in cash, property or stock, that are declared on any of the Common Stock. Cumulative dividends for Series A1 Preferred Stock as of December 31, 2006 and 2005 were $850,000 and $534,000, respectively.
Preference Events
Any transactions or series of related transactions, resulting in the sale of 50% or more of the voting power or assets of the Company and any merger, consolidation or similar transaction will be deemed liquidation, triggering the liquidation preference on the Preferred Stock. In the case of any liquidation involving a merger, consolidation, or similar transaction, accrued but unpaid dividends shall be paid to the extent earned.
Liquidation Preference
On any liquidation of the Company holders of Series B1 Stock will receive their purchase price per share, plus accrued but unpaid dividends, if any, which liquidation rights shall be senior to the rights of holders of all other classes or series of capital stock of the Company. After the Series B1 Stockholders have received their liquidation preference, the holders of the Series A1 shall receive $9.00 per share, plus accrued but unpaid dividends. Thereafter, any remaining proceeds shall be divided among the holders of the Preferred Stock (on an as converted basis) and the holders of the Company’s Common Stock on a pro-rata basis.

Table of Contents

The Company is required to redeem any and all outstanding shares of Convertible Preferred Stock any time prior to the Redemption Deadline, as defined, upon the written request from the holders of at least a majority of the outstanding Convertible Preferred Stock, voting together as a single class on an as-converted basis, to the extent legally permitted, in accordance with the schedule and percentages below:
On or before the fifth anniversary of the Original Issue Date (the “First Redemption Date”), the Company shall redeem 33-1/3% of all shares of Convertible Preferred Stock outstanding on the First Redemption Date (determined on a pro rata basis in accordance with the number of such shares held by each holder thereof). No redemptions of the Series A1 Preferred Stock shall occur unless and until 33-1/3% of all shares of Series B1 Preferred Stock outstanding on the First Redemption Date have been redeemed.
Provided that the Company has fully satisfied the redemption obligations set forth above, on or before the sixth anniversary of the Original Issue Date (the “Second Redemption Date”), the Company shall redeem 50% of all shares of Convertible Preferred Stock outstanding on the Second Redemption Date (determined on a pro rata basis in accordance with the number of such shares held by each holder thereof). No redemptions of the Series A1 Preferred Stock shall occur unless and until 50% of all shares of Series B1 Preferred Stock outstanding on the Second Redemption Date have been redeemed.
Provided that the Company has fully satisfied the redemption obligations set forth above, on or before the seventh anniversary of the Original Issue Date (the “Third Redemption Date”), the Company shall redeem 100% of all shares of Convertible Preferred Stock outstanding on the Third Redemption Date. No redemptions of the Series A1 Preferred Stock shall occur unless and until 100% of all shares of Series B1 Preferred Stock outstanding on the Third Redemption Date have been redeemed.
The price per share to be paid by the Company for the redemption of the Convertible Preferred Stock shall be the then-effective Stated Value of each such share of Convertible Preferred Stock.
Voting Rights
Holders of preferred stock are generally entitled to vote together with holders of common stock on matters presented for shareholder action as if such shares were converted to common stock.
Accounting for Registration Payment Arrangement
The Company believes the likelihood of liquidated damages is not probable based on the filing of the original Form SB-2 on February 14, 2007. The Company will reevaluate the probability of liquidated damages as facts and circumstance become available in accordance with FSP EITF 00-19-2.
The Company will request an acceleration of the effective date of the pending registration statement to avoid liquidated damages. If the registration statement is not declared effective by the SEC on or before June 14, 2007, the Company will have to pay each purchaser of Units such number of Units as liquidated damages equal to five percent of the number of Units held by such purchaser. The total liquidated damages will be ten percent if the registration statement is not declared effective on or before July 14, 2007 and fifteen percent if the registration statement is not declared effective by August 13, 2007.
As the Company issued 18,518,519 shares in exchange for $25,000,000, the liquidated damages would be 925,926 shares in five percent increments, if the registration statement is not declared effective prior to June 14, 2007.
Warrants
On November 7, 2000, the Company issued detachable stock purchase warrants to a bank to purchase 2,333 shares of Series B preferred stock at $7.50 per share in connection with an equipment note payable. The warrants expire on November 7, 2007. The fair value of the warrants on the date of issuance of $11,000 was calculated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model and the following assumptions: contractual life of seven years; no dividends; risk free interest rate of 6.50%; and volatility of 50%. The fair value of the warrants was recorded as debt issuance costs and offset against the Series B convertible preferred stock

(“Kreido” or “the Company”) at March 31, 2007 and for the three month period ended March 31, 2007 and 2006 have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information and with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods presented have been included. The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for any other interim period or for the full year. They do not include all information and notes required by United States generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes contained in Kreido’s Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the period from inception (January 13, 1995) through December 31, 2006.
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
NOTE 2   ORGANIZATION
Kreido Laboratories, formerly known as Holl Technologies Company, was incorporated on January 13, 1995 under the laws of the State of California. Since incorporation, Kreido Laboratories has been engaged in activities required to develop, patent and commercialize its products. Kreido Laboratories is the creator of reactor technology that is designed to enhance the manufacturing of a broad range of chemical products. The market for these products is developing in parallel to the Company’s activities. The Company considers itself a development stage enterprise because it has not yet earned significant revenue from its commercial products. The Company creates and intends to license innovative chemical and bio-chemical reacting systems.
Kreido Biofuels, Inc. was incorporated as Gemwood Productions, Inc. under the laws of the State of Nevada on February 7, 2005. It changed its name from Gemwood Productions, Inc. to Kreido Biofuels, Inc. on November 2, 2006. The Company took its current form on January 12, 2007 when Kreido Laboratories completed a reverse triangular merger with Kreido Biofuels, Inc. (Note 8).
The cornerstone of Kreido Laboratories’ technology is its patented STT(ä) (Spinning Tube in Tube) diffusional chemical reacting system, which is both a licensable process and a licensable system. In 2005, the company demonstrated how the STT™ could make biodiesel from vegetable oil with complete conversion and less undesirable by-products. The Company has continued to pursue this activity and is in the process of building a pilot production plant and developing the first of its commercial biodiesel production factories in the United States that it expects will produce approximately 30 million gallon per year.
NOTE 3  CONSTRUCTION IN PROGRESS AND PLANT DEVELOPMENT ACTIVITIES
Kreido has commenced development of one of its full scale biodiesel production plants (“full scale plant”) and one of its pilot biodiesel production plants (“pilot plant”). The Company is in the process of negotiating the lease for the site of the full scale plant. The pilot plant is being constructed in an existing

biodiesel production facility. The Company expects to complete the construction of the pilot plant in 2007 and complete the full scale production plant in 2008. Total estimated costs to be incurred for construction of the two facilities are between $12,000,000 and $18,000,000. At March 31, 2007, construction expenditures of $1,545,000 have been incurred and recorded as construction-in-progress and, in addition, approximately $550,000 was committed through purchase orders issued to sub-contractors and equipment vendors for services and equipment to be provided after March 31, 2007.
NOTE 4  NET LOSS PER COMMON SHARE
Basic net loss per common share is calculated by dividing the net loss applicable to common shares by the weighted-average number of common and common equivalent shares outstanding during the period. For the three months ended March 31, 2007, there were no potential common equivalent shares used in the calculation of weighted-average common shares outstanding as the effect would be anti-dilutive because of the net loss. During the quarter ended March 31, 2007, the Company issued an additional 1,355,384 stock options under its 2006 Equity Compensation plan.

NOTE 6  COMMON STOCK AGREEMENT
In January 2007, the Company completed a private placement offering of its common stock. The accredited investors purchased 18,518,519 units of our securities (“Unit”), at a purchase price of $1.35 per Unit. Each Unit consisted of one share of the Company’s common stock and a warrant to purchase one share of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $1.85 per share. The warrants expire January 12, 2012. The fair value of the warrants on the date of issuance was $8,075,000 and was calculated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model using the following assumptions: contractual life of 5 years; no dividends, risk free interest rate of 4.65% and volatility of 56.5%. The Company received proceeds from the offering of approximately $23 million, net of offering related costs and the repayment of $123,000 in outstanding short-term notes. Currently, the common stock purchased and the underlying shares of common stock for the warrants are unregistered. The Company has an obligation to register the common stock and shares underlying the warrants within 120 days from the registration filing date, February 14, 2007, otherwise they will be required to issue up to 15% of additional shares, based on the number of days the shares remain unregistered.
NOTE 7  STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION
The Company has recorded in general and administrative expenses, $4,000 and $2,000 of compensation expense for each of the three month periods ended March 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively, relating to stock options issued to non-employees for services rendered during those periods.
Upon the adoption of SFAS123(R), the Company recorded $7,000 and $13,000 of compensation costs relating to stock options granted to employees and non-employees for the three months ended March 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively. The amounts recorded represent equity-based compensation expense related to options that were issued from 2003 to 2006. The compensation costs are based on the fair value of the stock options at the grant date.
The fair value of the options issued during the for the three months ended March 31, 2007 were estimated using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following assumptions: risk free interest rates between 4.52% and 4.78%, expected life of three and half (3.5) years and expected volatility of 56.5%. Compensation cost for the issuance of stock options granted in 2007 will not be recorded until vesting commences beginning June 2007. There were no issuances in stock options for the three months ended March 31, 2006.

INFORMATION NOT REQUIRED IN PROSPECTUS
Item 24. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.
Nevada Revised Statutes, or NRS, Sections 78.7502 and 78.751 provide us with the power to indemnify any of our directors and officers. The director or officer must have conducted himself/herself in good faith and reasonably believe that his/her conduct was in, or not opposed to, our best interests. In a criminal action, the director, officer, employee or agent must not have had reasonable cause to believe his/her conduct was unlawful.
Under NRS Section 78.751, advances for expenses may be made by agreement if the director or officer affirms in writing that he/she believes he/she has met the standards and will personally repay the expenses if it is determined such officer or director did not meet the standards.
Our Bylaws include an indemnification provision under which we have the power to indemnify our directors, officers and former directors and officers (including heirs and personal representatives) against all costs, charges and expenses actually and reasonably incurred, including an amount paid to settle an action or satisfy a judgment to which the director or officer is made a party by reason of being or having been our director or officer.
In April 2007, we entered into Indemnity Agreements with each of our officers and directors. The Indemnity Agreements provide for indemnification of certain expenses, judgments, fines, and settlement amounts incurred by the officer or director in any action or proceeding, including any action by or in the right of the Company arising out of his or her services to us, to any of our subsidiaries, or to any other company or enterprise to which the officer or director provides services at our request. The Indemnity Agreement provides for the advancement of expenses, makes indemnification contingent on the officer’s or director’s good faith in acting or failing to act and except the obligation to indemnify for expenses or liabilities paid directly to the indemnified person by directors’ and officers’ insurance.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted for our directors, officers and controlling persons pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, we have been advised that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.
Item 25. Other Expenses of Issuance and Distribution.
Set forth below is an estimate (except for registration fees, which are actual) of the approximate amount of the fees and expenses payable by us in connection with the issuance and distribution of the shares of common stock being sold by the selling stockholders pursuant to this registration statement. The selling stockholders will not bear any portion of such fees and expenses.

Item 28. Undertakings.
The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:
(1)   To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement to:
  (i)   Include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act;
 
  (ii)   Reflect in the prospectus any facts or events which, individually or together, represent a fundamental change in the information in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20 percent change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective registration statement; and
 
  (iii)   Include any additional or changed material information on the plan of distribution.
(2)   For determining liability under the Securities Act, to treat each post-effective amendment as a new registration statement of the securities offered, and the offering of the securities at that time to be the initial bona fide offering.
(3)   To file a post-effective amendment to remove from registration any of the securities that remain unsold at the end of the offering.

(4)   For determining liability of the undersigned small business issuer under the Securities Act to any purchaser in the initial distribution of the securities, the undersigned small business issuer undertakes that in a primary offering of securities of the undersigned small business issuer pursuant to this registration statement, regardless of the underwriting method used to sell the securities to the purchaser, if the securities are offered or sold to such purchaser by means of any of the following communications, the undersigned small business issuer will be a seller to the purchaser and will be considered to offer or sell such securities to such purchaser:
  (i)   Any preliminary prospectus or prospectus of the undersigned small business issuer relating to the offering required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424 (§ 230.424 of this chapter);
 
  (ii)   Any free writing prospectus relating to the offering prepared by or on behalf of the undersigned small business issuer or used or referred to by the undersigned small business issuer;
 
  (iii)   The portion of any other free writing prospectus relating to the offering containing material information about the undersigned small business issuer or its securities provided by or on behalf of the undersigned small business issuer; and
 
  (iv)   Any other communication that is an offer in the offering made by the undersigned small business issuer to the purchaser.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 (the “Act”) may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the small business issuer pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the small business issuer has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.
In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the small business issuer of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the small business issuer in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the small business issuer will, unless in the opinion of our counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
For the purpose of determining liability under the Securities Act to any purchaser, each prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) (§ 230.424(b) of this chapter) as part of a registration statement relating to an offering, other than registration statements relying on Rule 430B or other than prospectuses filed in reliance on Rule 430A (§ 230.430A of this chapter), shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of the date it is first used after effectiveness. Provided, however, that no statement made in a registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement or made in a document incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference into the registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement will, as to a purchaser with a time of contract of sale prior to such first use, supersede or modify any statement that was made in the registration statement or prospectus that was part of the registration statement or made in any such document immediately prior to such date of first use.
