INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT

Board of Directors and Stockholder

Regrid Power, Inc.

Campbell, California

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Regrid Power, Inc. as of September 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007, and the related statements of operations, changes in stockholder’s equity and cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2008 and for the year ended December 31, 2007. 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 auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our 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 Regrid Power, Inc. as of September 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007 and the results of its operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2008 and for the year ended December 31, 2007, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

REGRID POWER, INC.

Notes to Financial Statements

Note 1 - Description of Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Regrid Power, Inc. (the “Company”) was founded in 2002. The Company designs and builds solar electric systems and since inception has commissioned over one thousand solar systems. The Company’s headquarters are located in Campbell, California.

Use of Estimates

The 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, disclosures 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.

Fair Value

Unless otherwise indicated, the fair values of all reported assets and liabilities which represent financial instruments, approximate the carrying values of such accounts. The Company has no financial instruments held for trading purposes.

Concentrations of Credit Risk

Cash

The Company considers all highly liquid instruments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The Company continually monitors its positions with, and the credit quality of, the financial institutions with which it invests. As of September 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007 balances of cash and cash equivalents exceeded the federally insured limit by approximately $168,000 and $886,000, respectively.

Accounts Receivable

The Company grants credit in the normal course of business to customers in the United States. The Company periodically performs credit analysis and monitors the financial condition of its customers to reduce credit risk.

At September 30, 2008, one customer, the State of California, accounted for approximately 36% of accounts receivable. At December 31, 2007, two customers, one of which is the State of California, accounted for approximately 84% of accounts receivable.

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

The allowance for doubtful accounts is based upon the Company’s assessment of the collectability of specific customer accounts and an assessment of economic risks. As of September 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007, the Company has deemed an allowance for doubtful accounts to be unnecessary.

Notes to Financial Statements

 

Note 1 - Description of Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

 

Inventory

Inventory consists primarily of purchased finished goods and is valued at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out) or market.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment is stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization is provided over the estimated useful lives for owned assets, ranging from 3 to 25 years.

Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of their estimated useful life or the remaining lease term.

Long-Lived Assets

The Company reviews its long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the asset may not be recovered. The Company looks primarily to the undiscounted future cash flows in its assessment of whether or not long-lived assets have been impaired.

Revenue Recognition

Revenue consists primarily of solar energy system installation fees. The Company recognizes revenue from fixed price contracts using either the completed contract or percentage-of-completion method, based on the size of the solar energy system installation. Revenue is recognized from solar energy system installations of less than 110 kilowatts (kW) when the installation is substantially complete, which is when remaining costs and potential risks are insignificant in amount, which typically occurs upon final departure from the worksite or passing of building inspection. Revenue is recognized from solar energy installations equal to or greater than 110 kW on a percentage-of-completion basis, measured by the percentage of contract costs incurred to date to total estimated costs for each contract. This method is used because management considers cost to date to be the best available measure of progress on these contracts.

Contract costs include direct contract costs such as materials, subcontractors, labor, payroll insurance and taxes, and other direct costs. General and administrative costs are charged to expense as incurred. Contract costs and estimates of costs to complete contracts are reviewed and updated periodically by management. Provisions for estimated losses on uncompleted contracts are recorded in the period in which such losses are determined. Changes in job performance, job conditions and estimated profitability may result in revisions to costs and income, and are recognized in the period in which the revisions are determined. Changes in estimated job profitability resulting from job performance, job conditions, contract penalty provisions, claims, change orders, and final contract settlements are accounted for as changes in estimates in the current period.

Notes to Financial Statements

 

Note 1 - Description of Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

 

Deferred Revenue on Uncompleted Contracts

The unearned portion of contracts is classified as deferred revenue. Related costs are also deferred until revenue is recognized.

Advertising Costs

The Company expenses advertising costs as incurred. Advertising expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2008 and for the year ended December 31, 2007 was $120,451 and $121,632, respectively.

Income Taxes

The Company provides for income taxes pursuant to the liability method as prescribed in SFAS No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes (“SFAS 109”). The liability method requires recognition of deferred income taxes based on temporary differences between financial reporting and income tax bases of assets and liabilities, using current enacted income tax rates and regulations. These differences will result in taxable income or deductions in future years when the reported amount of the asset or liability is recovered or settled, respectively. Considerable judgment is required in determining when these events may occur and whether recovery of an asset is more likely than not.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements (“SFAS 157”), which defines fair value, establishes guidelines for measuring fair value and expands disclosures regarding fair value measurements. SFAS 157 does not require any new fair value measurements but rather eliminates inconsistencies in guidance found in various prior accounting pronouncements. SFAS 157 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. The adoption of SFAS 157 on January 1, 2008 did not have a material effect on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

In July 2006, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes (“FIN 48”), an interpretation of SFAS No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes. FIN 48 prescribes a comprehensive model for recognizing, measuring, presenting and disclosing in the financial statements tax positions taken or expected to be taken on a tax return, including a decision on whether or not to file in a particular jurisdiction. The provisions of FIN 48 are to be applied to all tax positions upon initial adoption of this standard. Only tax positions that meet a “more-likely-than-not” recognition threshold at the effective date may be recognized or continue to be recognized upon adoption of FIN 48. The cumulative effect of applying the provisions of FIN 48 is reported as an adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings. FIN 48 is effective for private companies for years beginning after December 15, 2008. The Company expects the adoption of this accounting standard will increase the level of disclosure that the Company provides regarding tax positions. The adoption of FIN 48 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position and results of operations.

Note 7 - Related Party Transactions

The Company has a note payable to a related party for the purchase of an automobile. The loan requires monthly payments of $1,012, which include principal and interest at 7.00% and is due in February 2010. As of September 30, 2008, $15,383 was outstanding on the loan. Interest paid on the note during the nine months ended September 30, 2008 was $101. Subsequent to September 30, 2008 the note was paid in full.

Note 8 - Income Taxes

Deferred income taxes are provided for temporary differences in recognizing revenue and expenses for financial reporting and income tax purposes. The temporary differences are primarily due to differing methods for recording bad debts, depreciation, inventory, and accrued salaries and vacation pay. A valuation allowance is recorded for deferred tax assets where it appears more likely than not that the Company will not be able to recover the deferred tax asset.
