EXPLANATORY NOTE

This Amendment No. 1 on Form 10-Q/A (“Form 10-Q/A”) amends our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2011, as initially filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 13, 2011 (“Original Filing”), to record a liability, and appropriate disclosures, related to the potential issuance of the Company’s common shares pursuant to the Master Collaboration Agreement previously filed on October 5, 2010 with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The recording of this liability had a $440,000 impact on the consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ deficit, and cash flows for the periods presented. This Amendment No. 1 also reflects the reclassification of $45,000 between Other Liabilities and Related Party Payables.

Except for the aforementioned revised disclosures, this Form 10-Q/A continues to describe conditions as presented in the Original Filing. This Amendment does not reflect events occurring after the date of the Original Filing or modify or update any disclosures that may have been affected by subsequent events. The Company believes there have been no events since the Original Filing that would represent a fundamental change in the information presented in the Original Filing. Except as described above, all other information included in the Original Filing remains unchanged.

CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION

The report includes certain forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are statements that estimate the happening of future events and are not based on historical fact.

The forward-looking statements specified in the following information have been compiled by us and are considered by us to be reasonable. Our future operating results, however, are impossible to predict; the reader should infer no representation, guaranty or warranty from those forward-looking statements.

The assumptions we used for purposes of the forward-looking statements specified in the following information represent estimates of future events and are subject to uncertainty as to possible changes in economic, legislative, industry and other circumstances. As a result, our identification and interpretation of data and other information and their use in developing and selecting assumptions from and among reasonable alternatives require us to exercise judgment.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

Note 1 – Nature of Business and Basis of Presentation

Nature of Business

KL Energy Corporation (“KL” or “Company”, formerly known as Revive-it Corp.) was incorporated on February 26, 2007, in the State of Nevada, to engage in the development of skin care and cosmetic products. On September 30, 2008, we entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger with KL Process Design Group, LLC (“KLPDG”), which provided for the merger of KLPDG with and into our Company (the “Merger”). As a result of the Merger, our Company acquired all of the assets and liabilities of KLPDG.

For accounting purposes, the Merger was treated as a reverse acquisition with KLPDG as the acquirer and the Company as the acquired party. As a result, the business and financial information included in this report is the business and financial information of KLPDG, a South Dakota limited liability company that was organized in April 2003 and commenced business operations in January 2006.

While we have historically provided engineering, construction, operating and ethanol marketing services, for first generation grain based ethanol (“1st Gen” or “GBE”) our focus is now on developing proprietary second generation ethanol production process technologies (“2nd Gen”), licensing this proprietary technology and providing project development and engineering services for cellulose based ethanol ("CBE") 2nd Gen integrated facilities to third-parties seeking to participate in the renewable energy and advanced biofuel markets.

Initially, we created expansion and optimization programs for 1st Gen facilities. The experience in the design and operation of GBE’s has given our company a significant advantage in the development and future operations of 2nd Gen facilities.

In addition, the Company, through its majority-owned Western Biomass Energy, LLC (“WBE”), has designed, built, and operates what we believe to be one of the first second-generation cellulose based ethanol ("CBE") demonstration plants in the United States. Construction on the plant began during the year ended December 31, 2006 and was substantially completed in August 2007. The plant is located in Upton, Wyoming and was designed to convert wood and wood waste products into ethanol. The WBE plant was built to serve as a demonstration and research and development facility and has the future potential, with additional capital investment, to operate with a capacity of approximately 1.5 million gallons of CBE per year. We are currently in the process of a significant upgrade to this facility in order to meet the testing and performance requirements in a joint development agreement with Petrobras America, Inc. (“Petrobras”). This allows us to continue to research, and refine our cellulose conversion technology, while also demonstrating the commercial viability for this type of technology. During the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2010, a commercially viable grade of ethanol was developed but not produced in commercial quantities and has not yet been marketed to the public.

There is no assurance that we will operate profitably or will generate positive cash flow in the future. The Company has incurred losses since its inception. Such losses have resulted from engineering and management contracts and fuel sales, with favorable gross margins, which were more than offset by research, development and administrative expenses. As the engineering and management contracts expired, and the wholesale fuel business was discontinued, losses continued while the business focused on cellulosic research and development. If we cannot generate positive cash flows in the future, or raise sufficient financing to continue our normal operations, then we may be forced to scale down or even close our operations.

Note 1 – Nature of Business and Basis of Presentation (continued)

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements and related notes have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information and the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Results for interim periods should not be considered indicative of results for a full year. These interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair statement of the results for interim periods have been included.

We have reclassified certain data in the financial statements of the prior period to conform to the current period presentation.

Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the results of operations and financial position of the Company, KL Energy Services LLC (“KLES”, a wholly-owned subsidiary) as well as its majority-owned subsidiaries KLHC LLC (formerly known as KL Energy LLC, “KLHC”), KL Management, LLC (“KLM”), Patriot Motor Fuels LLC (“Patriot”) and Western Biomass Energy LLC (“WBE”). Until September 30, 2008, KLHC and KLM were 53% owned by KLPDG and the remaining 47% was owned by three other individuals; Patriot was 50% owned by KLPDG and two other owners held the remaining 50% interest. At September 30, 2008, the Company ownership interest increased to 75% for KLHC, KLM and Patriot. WBE is 64% owned by the Company and 36% owned by various unrelated investors. As of June 2009, KLHC, KLM and Patriot had been discontinued. However, final dissolution of these companies is largely dependent on the completion of arbitration proceedings with MRE. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements 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. The following estimates are significant to the Company’s consolidated financial statements: revenue recognition, costs to complete long-term contracts, useful lives of property, plant and equipment, impairment of long-lived assets, going concern analysis, valuation allowance on deferred tax assets, the allowance for doubtful accounts, fair value of convertible promissory notes and fair value of warrants.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

Effective January 1, 2010, the Company adopted new authoritative guidance for fair value measurements and disclosures requiring additional disclosures related to transfers in and out of Levels 1 and 2 fair value measurements, inputs and valuation techniques used to value Level 2 and 3 measurements and fair value disclosures for each class of asset and liability for Levels 1, 2, and 3. Effective January 1, 2011, the Company adopted the new guidance requiring that purchases, sales, issuances, and settlements in the rollforward activity in Level 3 measurements be disclosed. The adoption had no impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows. Refer to Note 5, “Fair Value Considerations”, for further details regarding the Company’s assets and liabilities measured at fair value.

Note 2 - Property, Plant, and Equipment

Property, plant and equipment is recorded at cost. Depreciation expense is computed using the straight–line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, generally three to five years except for leasehold improvements which are amortized over the lease term. Costs incurred relating to construction-in-progress for plant facilities are capitalized when those costs are for the active development of the facility. Depreciation commences when the construction activity is completed and the additional assets are available for use. Maintenance and repairs are charged to operations as incurred. Property, plant, and equipment consist of the following as of:

	March 31,			December 31,
	2011			2010
Plant and Plant Equipment	$	7,398,383		$	7,398,383
Office Furnishings and Equipment		481,997			458,476
Vehicles		51,698			51,698
Construction in progress		2,019,038			878,237
		9,951,116			8,786,794
Less Accumulated Depreciation		(6,123,669	)		(5,862,685	)
Total Property, Plant, and Equipment, Net	$	3,827,447		$	2,924,109

Construction costs associated with the WBE demonstration plant are stated at cost (including direct construction costs, and capitalized interest). Construction in progress reflects various WBE facility upgrades pursuant to the Joint Development Agreement with Petrobras. Depreciation expense, excluding depreciation expenses charged to research and development, was approximately $19,000 and $15,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. Included in research and development expense is depreciation expense of approximately $242,000 and $468,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

Note 4 - Secured Convertible Promissory Notes and Derivative Warrant Liability

In November 2010, KL Energy Corporation (the “Company”) consummated a financing with several accredited investors pursuant to a Note and Warrant Purchase Agreement (the ”Purchase Agreement”). Pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Agreement, the Company issued to the investors secured convertible promissory notes (the “Notes”), and related stock purchase warrants (the “Warrants”), for an aggregate purchase price of $4,680,000 (excluding $1,821,508 of existing promissory notes that were converted into these new Notes and Warrants) of which $4,480,000 was received in November and December 2010 and $200,000 was received in January 2011. The exchange of $1,821,508 of existing promissory notes for the new notes and warrants were accounted for as an extinguishment of debt with the difference between the fair value of the new debt instrument and the carrying value of the old debt instrument reflected as a debt extinguishment loss in the December 31, 2010 consolidated statements of operations. In order to induce each investor to extend the credit evidenced by the Notes, the Company entered into the Security Agreement, which granted a security interest of first priority in all right, title and interests of the Company in and to all of the Company’s property which has not already been covered by liens. The Purchase Agreement also provides each investor with the right of first offer, within 10 days of being notified, to purchase its pro-rata share of capital stock which the Company proposes to issue in a subsequent equity financing.

Note 4 - Secured Convertible Promissory Notes and Derivative Warrant Liability (continued)

Approximately $4.0 million of the gross proceeds from the financing came from existing investors. Each Note carries an interest rate of 10.0% per annum and is payable eight months after its issuance. In the event the Company consummates, prior to the maturity date of the Notes, an equity financing pursuant to which it sells shares of its capital stock for an amount of not less than $15,000,000 and with the principal purpose of raising capital (a “Qualified Equity Financing”), then the investor may elect to convert all or part of the outstanding principal amount and the accrued but unpaid interest under such Note into shares of the capital stock at the same price and on the same terms as the other investors that participate in the Qualified Equity Financing. In the event that a merger or sale of the Company’s assets (a “Liquidity Event”) occurs prior to the maturity date of the Notes, all or a portion of the outstanding principal amount and all accrued but unpaid interest under the Note will be convertible at the option of the investor into that number of shares of the Company’s capital stock as is determined by dividing such principal amount and accrued interest by 80% of the price per share of the Company’s capital stock determined as of the date of the Liquidity Event. In lieu of the conversion of the Note, the investor may demand payment of the principal and accrued but unpaid interest outstanding as of the date of the Liquidity Event. The Notes also embody contingent equity-linked share price protections on the ECF in the form of down-round, anti-dilution adjustments to the conversion price during the term to maturity. In addition, the underlying contracts extend the down-round, anti-dilution protection to the underlying shares of common stock if the financial instrument is converted, for a period of two years following the maturity date.

The Notes are hybrid financial instruments that blend characteristics of both equity and debt securities. They embody settlement alternatives available to the holder providing for either redemption of the principal and interest for cash at maturity (“Forward Component”) or conversion into the Company’s common stock (“Embedded Conversion Feature” or “ECF”). The Notes also embody contingent equity-linked share price protections on the ECF in the form of down-round, anti-dilution adjustments to the conversion price during the term to maturity. In addition, the underlying contracts extend the down-round, anti-dilution protection to the underlying shares of common stock, if the financial instrument is converted, for a period of two years following the maturity date. As a result, the Company determined that the Notes contained certain embedded derivative features. The Company’s evaluation resulted in the conclusion that the compound derivative financial instrument required bifurcation and liability classification at fair value. Accounting guidance provides an election wherein companies that issue financial instruments with embedded features that require bifurcation may elect, as an alternative to bifurcation, fair value measurement of the hybrid financial instrument in its entirety. After reviewing all circumstances surrounding the issuance and impending redemptions or conversions, the Company elected this alternative and has recorded the Convertible Notes at fair value.

Pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Agreement, each investor was issued a Warrant that entitled the investor to purchase, within four years of each Note’s maturity date, shares of the Company’s capital stock that equals the quotient obtained by dividing (a) the warrant coverage amount by (b) either the price paid by investors of a Qualified Equity Financing or $1.10 per share if exercised in the absence of a Qualified Equity Financing. The warrant coverage amount is 140% of the number of shares convertible under the Note at the maturity date; provided, however, that if the Note is converted either in whole or in part at any time during the term of the Note or upon the maturity date, then the 140% used in the calculation of the warrant coverage amount shall be increased to 170%. In addition, the underlying contracts extend the down-round, anti-dilution protection to the underlying shares of common stock, if the financial instrument is converted, for a period of four years following the maturity date.

The Company also concluded that the warrants, which are derivatives by definition, did not meet the principal exemption to liability classification and measurement. Accordingly, the Warrants are classified as a liability and are subject to the classification and measurement standards for derivative financial instruments.

Pursuant to the terms of the Securities Purchase Agreements, dated September 30, 2008 among the Company and two accredited investors, the Company had issued an aggregate of 3,125 units of its securities in a private placement, with each unit comprised of two shares of common stock, for a total of 6,250 shares, and a warrant to purchase one share of common stock. The purchase price per unit was $8.00 per unit for an aggregate price of $25,000.

Assuming the 170% conversion rate for warrants related to the Convertible Notes, and the 3,125 warrants issued in September 2008, the Company had approximately 10.0 million warrants outstanding at March 31, 2011. The weighted average exercise price and remaining contractual life of these warrants was $1.10 and 3.7 years, respectively.

At December 31, 2010, the fair value of the Notes and warrants issued in exchange for the existing promissory notes exceeded the carrying value of the existing notes resulting in a loss on extinguishment of $5,087,521 and the fair value of the remaining Notes and warrants exceeded the cash proceeds at issuance resulting in a loss of $9,402,089 at issuance which was accounted for as a $4,145,566 unrealized loss on fair value of debt instruments and $5,256,523 in derivative expense.

Note 5 - Fair Value Considerations

Authoritative guidance defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset, or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price), in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The guidance establishes a hierarchy for inputs used in measuring fair value that maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs by requiring that the most observable inputs be used when available. Observable inputs are inputs that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of the Company. Unobservable inputs are inputs that reflect the Company’s assumptions of what market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on the best information available in the circumstances. The hierarchy is broken down into three levels based on the reliability of the inputs as follows:

Level 1: Quoted prices are available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

Level 2: Quoted prices in active markets for similar assets and liabilities that are observable for the asset or liability; or

Level 3: Unobservable pricing inputs that are generally less observable from objective sources, such as discounted cash flow models or valuations.

The financial assets and liabilities are classified based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The Company’s policy is to recognize transfers in and/or out of fair value hierarchy as of the date on which the event or change in circumstances caused the transfer. The Company has consistently applied the valuation techniques discussed below in all periods presented.

The following table presents the Company’s financial assets and liabilities, which were accounted for at fair value on a recurring basis by level within the fair value hierarchy:

Increase in unrealized gains included in earnings relating to derivatives still held	$	1,337,502		$	1,000,042

The Convertible Notes were valued in their entirety based upon the aggregate values of the individual components giving rise to value in the financial instrument. These components consist of the Forward Contract, the anti-dilution effected ECF and the post-conversion down-round, anti-dilution protection (Post Conversion Put). This method was selected among other available methods because it embodies all material assumptions (both debt and equity risk related) that market participants would likely consider in an orderly exchange of the financial instrument.

The following table summarizes the composition of the fair values as of March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, with a summary of each of the components following the table:

	Derivatives and Warrants As Of
	March 31,		December 31,
Components:	2011		2010
Forward component	$	6,360,081	$	6,082,344
ECF, adjusted for anti-dilution		342,807		842,111
Post Conversion Put		4,000,792		4,509,588
Hybrid fair value	$	10,703,680	$	11,434,043

The Forward Component represents the discounted cash flows arising from the principal and interest at the contractual coupon and applying the contractual payment terms. The discount rates amounted to 20.45% and 18.61% at March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively.

The Embedded Conversion Feature, or ECF, was valued using Monte Carlo Simulations (“MCS”). The MCS technique, which is an option-based cash-flow model. In addition to the typical assumptions in a closed-end option model, such as volatility, risk free rate, credit risk and redemption behaviors, MCS breaks down the time to expiration into potentially a large population of time intervals and steps.

Fair value of common stock	$	1.10		$	1.10
Dilution adjusted fair value of common stock	$	0.86		$	0.89

Contractual conversion price	$	1.10		$	1.10
Adjusted conversion price (anti-dilution price)	$	1.02		$	1.098

Yield range over nodes		20.45	%		18.61	%
Effective yield		20.45	%		18.61	%

The Fair value of Common Stock represents what a market participant would consider a fair value of the underlying security to establish the intrinsic value present in the arrangement or feature. The Company’s listed stock price was $2.50 at December 31, 2010 but the stock was deleted from the OTCBB in March 2010 and is not actively traded. As such, management believes that the $1.10 per share price used in private placement transactions since October 2010 is indicative of the value market participants would pay. Such price is a better indicator of value than the listed price and, accordingly, was used in the calculations. The dilution adjusted value gives effect to potentially dilutive securities (warrants, stock options and conversion features) using the Noreen-Wolfson Equilibrium Pricing Model (“NW Model”). A dilution adjusted fair value is particularly relevant and valid when trading is extremely thin resulting in the presumption that trading activity likely would not give effect to potentially dilutive securities. The NW Model is a Black-Scholes based valuation technique that was utilized solely for generating the dilution adjusted fair value.

The contractual conversion price defined in the Convertible Notes is, in the event the Company consummates an equity financing of not less than $15,000,000 ("Qualified Equity Financing") prior to the prepayment or maturity dates, the same price and on the same terms as the other investors participating in the Qualified Equity Financing, and $1.10 per share if a Qualified Equity Financing does not take place prior to the prepayment or maturity dates. In the event that the Company consummates a Qualified Equity Financing at any time during the 24-month period following the conversion of this Note, and the purchase price per share of the securities in such Qualified Equity Financing is less than $1.10 per share, then the Company agrees to issue additional shares to the investor, of the same securities that the investor received upon the prior conversion of the Note, to cover the difference in the number of shares that the investor would have received if the conversion price was adjusted to the lower purchase price in the Qualified Equity Financing. There is a general presumption that a market participant would see more value in an option (freestanding or embedded) with this type of price protection compared to an option without such protection. Accordingly, the contractual conversion price is adjusted to give effect to the additional value (i.e. higher intrinsic value). The adjusted conversion price is computed using a Binomial Lattice model.

The Post Conversion Put refers to the extension of the down-round, anti-dilution protection to the underlying shares of common stock, if the convertible Notes are converted, for a period of two years following the maturity date. This feature was valued as a put derivative using a Binomial Lattice model.

Note 5 - Fair Value Considerations (continued)

Significant inputs into the Binomial Lattice Valuation Technique (for puts) were as follows:

	March 31,			December 31,
Post Conversion Put Inputs:	2011			2010

Contractual put price	$	1.10		$	1.10
Fair value of common stock	$	1.10		$	1.10
Dilution adjusted fair value of common stock	$	0.97		$	1.00
Median selling price (projected selling price)	$	0.72		$	0.73

Probability that future round will be below the put price		78.08	%		86.94	%
Volatility over term to expiration		104.23	%		122.58	%
Risk free rate		0.80	%		1.02	%

The contractual put price is similar to a conversion price and reflects what a market participant would expect to establish the intrinsic value (protection) present in the arrangement. That is, upon a triggering event the holder can effectively put the stock back to the Company, although the feature provides for net settlement through the issuance of additional common shares.

The Median Selling Price and Probability, unlike a traditional written put, reflects a triggering price that will vary based upon the Company’s market prices. Accordingly, for purposes of estimating the value of the post conversion put, an estimate of the down round price was required. The median selling price represents the calculated price that shares would likely sell for in a down round during the term to expiration of the Post Conversion Put. The associated probability establishes the overall probability that the future financing will be below the contractual put price. This value is derived from the use of a Random-Walk Brownian Motion Stochastic Process. At each valuation date, the model is run using monthly steps based upon the following inputs: the current trading market price, the remaining term of the note and the estimated volatility over the remaining term. The simulation returns the mean stock price (NewPrice) and the probability of the stock price falling below the conversion price (SPP). These values are used as inputs into the Binomial Lattice model. The Noreen-Wolfson dilution adjusted fair value was used in the stochastic methodology to arrive at the median selling price and probabilities. The dilution adjusted fair value approach has been consistently applied across all models.

Warrants

The Warrants were valued using the Binomial Lattice Model. The Binomial Lattice valuation technique was chosen among other valuation techniques because (i) it embodies all of the assumptions that market participants would likely consider in negotiating the transfer of the Warrants and (ii) it simulates the exercise of the Warrants prior to the expiration. The fair value of the warrants at March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010 was $6,465,229 and $7,092,275, respectively.

Significant inputs into the Binomial Lattice Valuation Technique were as follows:

	March 31,			December 31,
Warrant Inputs:	2011			2010

Fair value of common stock	$	1.10		$	1.10
Dilution adjusted fair value of common stock	$	1.01		$	1.04
Contractual conversion price	$	1.10		$	1.10

Volatility range over nodes		89% - 94	%		113% - 137	%

Note 5 - Fair Value Considerations (continued)

The down-round adjustment in the warrant agreement is a price protection feature which causes the exercise price to decrease if there is a new capital issue or financing with a price that is less than the current exercise price. The “down” portion of a down-round financing is the risk that either the trading market is below or projected to be below the conversion price. The “round” portion of a down-round financing is the probability that the Company will enter into a financing in the future. This down-round protection feature must be embodied in the fair value of the warrant similar to the previously discussed financial instruments and features.

In general terms, the mechanism for including the down-round protection in the binomial model is by adjusting the exercise price downward which has the effect of increasing the intrinsic value. In order to develop the down-round adjusted conversion prices for use in the MSC model, the combination of a Brownian motion technique and a Binomial Lattice model was used.

Since anti-dilution risk is present when the trading market price is below or projected to be below the stated conversion price, a Brownian motion technique was used to estimate the future market price and the probability that the stock price would be below the stated conversion price during the remaining term of the note. A binomial lattice model was utilized which uses many of the same inputs used in a standard lattice model; however, each node considers the probability of the market price being lower than the conversion price based on the market data obtained using the Brownian motion technique. This results in an anti-dilution adjusted fair value.

To develop the down-round adjusted strike prices for use in the MCS model, (1) the probability that the stock price will fall below the stated conversion price and the mean stock price at which the financing would take place was estimated and (2) the down-round adjusted value of an option with binomial lattice using the mean stock value previously obtained as the value of the asset and the probability of the stock price falling below the strike price was computed.

Note 6 –Debt

Subordinated Debt – Related Parties

The Company has a subordinated unsecured note payable to a current shareholder and former officer of the Company totaling approximately $397,000 and $427,000 at March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively. This note was originally a $600,000 loan to the former officer by First National Bank (“FNB”) and has an interest rate of 5% which is paid quarterly. This note was unsecured and did not have a specified due date. In February 2009, the note was modified to require principal payments of $10,000 per month, beginning September 2009, over a 60 month term. In addition, when the Company receives additional equity financing, we are obligated to pay 5% of such proceeds towards principal payments on this note. The principal payments are scheduled to be $120,000 in each of 2011, 2012, 2013, and approximately $37,000 in 2014. Effective January 28, 2010, the Company assumed the former officer’s loan payment obligations under this note and, as such, makes principal and interest payments directly to FNB. As security for our obligations under this note, we granted to the lender a security interest in our current and future accounts receivable. As of March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, this entire obligation is included in current maturities of subordinated debt-related party in the consolidated balance sheets due to additional equity financings received by the Company.

Note 7 – Net Loss Per Common Share

The Accounting Codification Section 260 provides for the calculation of “Basic” and “Diluted” earnings per share (“EPS”). Basic EPS includes no dilution and is computed by dividing income or (loss) applicable to common stock by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution of securities that could share in the earnings of an entity, similar to fully diluted EPS. For the three months ended March 31, 2011, the additional shares issuable pursuant to the terms of the convertible promissory notes were included in the computation of diluted loss per share.

Note 8 – Share Based Compensation

Effective July 1, 2010, and pursuant to the Company’s 2009 Equity Incentive Plan, 119,518 incentive stock options were awarded to employees and 44,794 restricted stock grants were awarded to consultants. The grant date and exercise price of $1.10 per share for each award represents the effective price at which all private placement sales have been transacted since October 2009. All such awards became one-third vested on July 1, 2010 and the remaining two-thirds vest evenly on July 1, 2011 and July 1, 2012. The grant date fair value of these awards was approximately $176,000.

On March 2, 2010, the Company issued to a former executive an option to purchase 83,333 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $1.10 which became fully vested on April 2, 2010 and is exercisable for three years. The options were issued to Mr. Corcoran pursuant to Regulation D of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The fair value of this option was $87,500 and this amount is included in general and administrative expense in the consolidated statements of operations.

Effective January 1, 2010, we adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 (revised 2004), “Share-Based Payment” (SFAS 123(R)), now codified in ASC 718, which requires the measurement and recognition of compensation expense for all share-based payment awards made to employees, directors and consultants. Awards granted after that date are valued at fair value in accordance with the provisions of ASC 718 and recognized on a straight line basis over the service periods of each award. We estimated forfeiture rates for the year based on historical experience.

Amounts recognized in the financial statements related to stock-based compensation are as follows:

	Three Months Ended
	March 31,
	2011		2010

Total cost of stock-based compensation charged against income before income taxes	$	10,644	$	87,500

Amount charged against net income	$	10,644	$	87,500

Impact on net income per common share:
Basic	$	-	$	-
Diluted	$	-	$	-

Stock-based compensation expense of approximately $11,000 and $88,00 for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively, is reflected as general and administrative expense and research and development expense of approximately $8,000 and $88,000 and $3,000 and $0, respectively, in the consolidated statement of operations.

The fair value of each option grant is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model (Black-Scholes). We use historical data to estimate the expected price volatility, the expected option life and expected forfeiture rate. The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant for the estimated life of the option. The dividend yield is calculated based upon the dividend payments made during the prior four quarters as a percent of the average stock price for that period. The following assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of stock options and restricted shares granted during 2010 using the Black-Scholes model:

	Three Months Ended

Note 10 - Operations

Petrobras Agreement

Effective August 23, 2010, Petrobras Brasileiro Ltda., through its subsidiary Petrobras America, Inc. (“Petrobras”), entered into a Joint Development Agreement (“JDA”) with the Company to jointly optimize our proprietary cellulosic ethanol process technology for sugarcane bagasse feedstock (“Bagasse”). The latest generation of the Company’s process design provides for substantial enhancements over the first generation, implemented in 2008 at the Company’s demonstration plant in Upton, Wyoming using Ponderosa Pine feedstock, including the ability to be optimized for multiple feedstocks.

As part of this agreement, Petrobras will provide up to $11.0 million to adapt the Company’s demonstration facility to the use of Bagasse, validate the optimized process by producing cellulosic ethanol and bio-lignin from Bagasse in multiple campaigns and license the technology. In parallel, Petrobras and KL will jointly work on an industrial scale Bagasse based cellulosic ethanol plant project that shall be fully integrated into a sugarcane mill belonging to the Petrobras Group in Brazil slated to go on stream in 2013 and capable of producing 15 million liters per year. The agreement, which has an initial term of 18 months and provides for mutual exclusivity in the area of developing cellulosic ethanol from Bagasse, provides Petrobras with the option to enter into a technology license for the use of the Company’s technology within Petrobras Group assets.

For the three months ended March 31, 2011, approximately $1.7 million of revenue, and approximately $815,000 of expenses, related to the JDA have been included in the consolidated statements of operations.

Note 10 – Operations (continued)

Continuing Operations

During the period from its inception to September 30, 2010, the Company has incurred significant annual net losses and at March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the Company had negative working capital (i.e. current assets less current liabilities) of approximately $13.2 million and $12.7 million, respectively. At March 31, 2011, total liabilities exceeded total assets by approximately $16.0 million. The advanced biofuels industry in which the Company operate continues to face significant challenges including technical risks, limited availability of debt and equity financing and changing public and governmental support.

These factors, among others, indicate the Company may be unable to meet its current obligations and may be unable to continue as a going concern unless it raises additional capital. Management is continuing its efforts to raise additional capital through various methods.

Discontinued Operations

In January 2009, the Company determined that its majority-owned subsidiary, Patriot Motor Fuels LLC (“Patriot”), should be discontinued as a result of pricing and other competitive factors. Patriot distributed ethanol blended fuel. In June 2009, the Company also discontinued two additional businesses in which it held a majority interest: KL Management LLC (“KLM”), which managed ethanol facilities for third parties, and KLHC LLC (formerly known as KL Energy LLC, “KLHC”), which sold wholesale ethanol. All three businesses were discontinued as a result of the severe change in the economics of the first generation ethanol industry but especially due to the Company’s re-focus on cellulosic second generation ethanol commercialization.

Operating results from discontinued operations were income of approximately $0 and $26,000 during the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. At March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, these businesses had no assets and the only liabilities were accounts payable of approximately $316,000. The resolution of these liabilities is largely dependent on the completion of arbitration proceedings with MRE.

Note 11 – Contingencies

Litigation

On March 21, 2007 in the District Court of Douglas County, Nebraska, the Company was named in a personal injury lawsuit as well as Midwest Renewable Energy, LLC, a Nebraska limited liability company (“MRE”), U.S. Water Services Utility Chemicals (the plaintiff’s employer), and a company employee. The Company was performing services at MRE. The plaintiff claimed that the defendants were negligent regarding certain safety procedures and was seeking $1.5 million for reimbursement of medical bills, pain and suffering, and loss of future earning capacity plus interest. In November 2010, a jury determined that the defendants were liable for $451,500. In March 2011, the plaintiff and MRE, through their insurance company, have executed a Satisfaction of Judgment settlement (the “Settlement”) for $440,000, which was paid in March 2011 by MRE’s insurance company. In light of the jury decision, the Company accrued $220,000 as its potential share of this award in December 2010. The Company has appealed their liability as it believes that several legal mistakes were made during the trial. While the Company has no liability to the plaintiff due to the Settlement, the Company could be responsible for a portion of the Settlement if MRE, through its insurance company, files litigation which is successful in requiring the Company to contribute to the Settlement.

On June 30, 2009, a lawsuit was brought by MRE against the Company, certain subsidiaries (owned 75% by the Company and 25% by an officer and owner of MRE), and certain past officers in the District Court of Lincoln County, Nebraska. MRE previously engaged the Company and certain subsidiaries to manage its existing ethanol facility, oversee its expansion construction and market the ethanol produced at its facilities. The plaintiff alleged, among other things, that the named individuals and entities engaged in breaches of fiduciary duties owed to MRE, breaches of contract, fraud, interference with contract, conversion and negligence relating to the management and expansion of its corn-based ethanol facilities in Nebraska. In August 2009, the Company and certain subsidiaries filed a motion to compel MRE to arbitrate its claims and also separately filed three arbitration demands for claims relating to the three agreements between the Company and its affiliates and MRE that were at issue in the lawsuit. In November 2009, the Court ruled for the Company and certain subsidiaries and issued an order to compel three separate arbitration proceedings.

Note 11 – Contingencies (continued)

Litigation (continued)

The arbitration proceedings for the first and second of the three arbitrations, involving KLM and KLHC, were concluded on February 25, 2011. In both arbitrations, the arbitrator denied all MRE claims relating to breaches of fiduciary duties owed to MRE or breaches of contract, fraud, interference with contract, conversion or negligence and stated that MRE had failed to establish, by the preponderance of the evidence, that KLM perpetrated a fraud on MRE. Of the $2.1M counterclaimed by MRE, the arbitrator awarded KLHC from MRE a net award of $42,000, and awarded MRE from KLM a net award of $263,000. These awards relate to trade payables and contract disputes, and are less than the amounts previously accrued in the consolidated financial statements.

No arbitrator has been selected for the arbitration of claims and counterclaims arising out of or relating to the third arbitration. The schedule for this arbitration will be established when an arbitrator is selected and proceedings will commence thereafter. The Company believes that there is no evidence of breaches of fiduciary duties owed to MRE or breaches of contract, fraud, interference with contract, conversion or negligence. Since over 96% of the $40 million counterclaimed by MRE relates to such claims, the Company believes this counterclaim has no merit. Accordingly, the Company has not recorded an accrual for such potential loss and, as in the first two arbitration proceedings, plans to vigorously defend its position.

On November 12, 2008 in Circuit Court, Second Judicial Circuit, South Dakota, County of Minnehaha, the Company was named in a pending action, which is captioned Dakota Supply Group, Inc. (“DSG”) v. KL Process Design Group, LLC (“KL”), and MRE. The action was commenced in 2008 for the collection of a debt of approximately $524,000 plus interest for electrical supplies and materials furnished by DSG directly to MRE. DSG alleged that KL and MRE were jointly responsible for the debt because KL executed the purchase order without clarifying that the debt was the responsibility of MRE and that credit was extended directly to KL rather than MRE. KL refuted this and provided substantial evidence that DSG contracted directly with MRE. In addition, all invoices paid were paid by MRE. On March 18, 2011 the jury determined that MRE was wholly liable for debt and interest, beginning August 2007 and aggregating over $600,000, and that KL was completely exonerated and had no liability.

On July 2, 2010, a lawsuit was brought against the Company and certain current directors and a Company investor in the Seventh Judicial District Court of Pennington County, South Dakota. The plaintiff is Randy Kramer, a former CEO of the Company. The plaintiff alleges, among other things, that the Company violated the Severance Agreement signed by the Company and Kramer. The plaintiff also alleges that the named individuals engaged in conspiracy to have him removed as CEO and oppressed him to sign the Severance Agreement. The plaintiff has not requested specific damages but seeks awards for all compensatory, consequential, and pecuniary damages allegedly sustained by him for breach of contract, fraud, and deceit, breach of fiduciary duty, tortuous interference, and oppression plus interest and punitive damages. The Company believes these claims are unfounded and any losses that might be incurred by the Company cannot be reasonably estimated. Accordingly, the Company has not recorded an accrual for such potential loss and plans to vigorously defend its position.

On December 21, 2010, an amended lawsuit, that was originally filed against MRE, was brought against the Company in the District Court of Douglas County, Nebraska. The plaintiff is R M Campbell Industrial, Inc., a Nebraska limited liability company ("RMC").The total amount claimed against all defendants is approximately $158,000 plus accrued interest since November 13, 2008 plus attorneys’ fees. No basis was provided in the amended lawsuit for including the Company and the Company believes there is absolutely no basis for its inclusion. Any losses incurred by the Company cannot be reasonably estimated. Accordingly, the Company has not recorded an accrual for such potential loss and plans to vigorously defend its position.

The Company may be subject to various claims and legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business from time to time. The Company maintains insurance to cover certain such actions.

Note 13 – Related Parties

add blue Agreements

On September 1, 2010, the Company entered into a Master Collaboration Agreement (the “Collaboration Agreement”) with add blue Consultoria Ltda., a foreign company organized under the laws of Brazil (“Add Blue”) from which we retained the services of our Company President and CEO who is also an owner of Add Blue. The Collaboration Agreement amends and restates and supersedes all prior agreements between the two parties are replaced. Pursuant to the Collaboration Agreement, Add Blue expressly waived any and all rights throughout the world that it may have in respect to any and all of the Company’s intellectual property, whether obtained through the prior agreements or otherwise. In addition, the Collaboration Agreement provides for the cancellation and termination of an option previously granted by Add Blue to the Company to purchase 20% of its equity. The Collaboration Agreement also provides for cash payments by the Company to Add Blue, between September 2010 and August 2011 and based on the achievement of certain milestones in respect of customer payments to the Company, aggregating up to $2,583,000 for the acquisition of Add Blue’s territorial licensing rights to the Company’s proprietary technology.

The Company also issued to Add Blue 1,500,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, with a fair value of $1.10 per share for an aggregate value of $1,650,000, as of September 30, 2010 pursuant to this Collaboration Agreement. In addition, in the event that the required conditions for the payment of funds by a customer have been satisfied, the Company agreed to issue to Add Blue an additional 500,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. As of March 31, 2011,the conditions for the issuance of these shares had been met . However, no shares have been issued, but an accrual of $440,000 was recorded for the dilution-adjusted fair value of these shares, as Add Blue and the Company will be discussing the possible waiver of this requirement.

In December 2010, as provided by the Collaboration Agreement, the Company also issued 1,000,000 shares of common stock, with a fair value of $1.10 per share for an aggregate value of $1,100,000, to Add Blue for its waiver of all rights to minority ownership of a Company subsidiary to be formed in Brazil.

The Collaboration Agreement will remain in force for a period of 540 days, and upon the expiration of such term, it will automatically renew for an additional period of 360 days, unless either party gives no less than 30 days prior written notice of its intention to terminate the agreement. For the three months ended March 31, 2011, approximately $640,000 of expense, of which $200,000 represents cash payments, has been included in the consolidated statement of operations.

Effective March 8, 2010, the Company entered into a consulting agreement with Add Blue for the provision of certain executive services. Pursuant to this agreement, the services of CEO and President of the Company and its subsidiaries are to be performed by Peter Gross. An initial payment of $24,000 U.S. was paid to add blue Consultoria Ltda. on March 31, 2010, and thereafter the monthly fee was to be $16,000 U.S. The consulting agreement may be terminated upon 90 days’ notice by either party. This agreement was subsequently amended, as part of the Collaboration Agreement between the Company and Add Blue, to change the monthly fee to $20,000 U.S. per month. It is anticipated that a substantial portion of Mr. Gross’ services will be performed from his Brazilian office. During the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, fees paid to Add Blue were approximately $60,000 and $31,000, respectively.

Other Related Party Agreements

Pursuant to its agreement with the Company, Pelly Management, Inc. provided financial advisor services and received fees of $0 and $200,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

In February 2009 and April 2009, the Company entered into a consulting contract with Thomas Schueller, for the position of Executive Chairman of the Board, and Thomas Bolan, for the position of Chief Financial Officer, respectively. In July 2009, the Company also entered into a consulting services contract with Alan Rae, a Director. During the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, fees paid to Messrs. Schueller, Bolan and Rae were approximately $36,000 and $ 36,000, $ 38,000 and $38,000, and $ 42,000 and $ 35,000, respectively.

Prior to March 2, 2010, we generally had not compensated Directors for their service as directors. On March 2, 2010, the Board of Directors approved a Director’s fee of $18,000 per annum that could be awarded to all serving Non-Executive and Non-Consulting directors. As of the date of this report, Alain Vignon is the only Non-Executive, Non-Consulting director that has so far been awarded this fee and $45,000 has been accrued for his services from his appointment in October 2008 through March 2011.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Business

Initially, we created expansion and optimization programs for 1st Gen facilities. The experience in the design and operation of these GBE’s has given our company a significant advantage in the development and future operations of 2nd Gen facilities.

The majority of 1st Gen ethanol is currently produced from sugar cane or grain-based feedstocks, predominantly corn in the United States; however ethanol can also be produced from cellulose. The growth of first generation ethanol is limited due to the widespread opposition to using land and crops that can be used for food or feed for the production of fuels. This is especially relevant now that technology has provided a solution that uses widely available cellulose as a feedstock for ethanol production. Cellulose is the primary component of plant cell walls and is one of the most abundant organic compounds available. Advanced biofuels produced from cellulosic materials draws on non-food related and waste feedstock sources and has been proven to substantially reduce carbon dioxide emissions and improve engine efficiency.

Our scientists and engineers continue to optimize our technology both independently and in cooperation with the South Dakota School of Mines and Technology in Rapid City, South Dakota. Based on laboratory data, we have shown our process is capable of producing up to 90 gallons of ethanol from every dry metric ton of certain biomass feedstock.

A key part of our business model is the development of scalable, custom-designed fully integrated CBE projects, preferably with integrated Combined Heat and Power (CHP) and Bio-Lignin production, tailored to a project’s geographic area and locally available feedstock. The Company, through its majority-owned Western Biomass Energy, LLC (“WBE”), has designed, constructed and operated what we believe to be one of the first second-generation CBE demonstration plants in the United States. The WBE plant was built to serve as a demonstration and research and development facility and has the future potential, with additional capital investment, to operate with a capacity of approximately 1.5 million gallons of CBE per year. This allows us to continue to research and refine our cellulose conversion technology while also demonstrating the commercial viability for this type of technology.

Biomass, unlike corn, includes all plants and plant-derived materials and is more evenly distributed among regions of the world. The quantity of biomass available for a CBE plant can come from many different sources, including fuel wood harvesting, wood processing residue, crop residue, like corn stalk or sugar cane bagasse and perennial crops. KL focuses on co-locating CBE plants with industrial partners with access to feedstock either as a residual or by-product to their existing process, reducing transportation costs relating to feedstock and sharing energy and utilities.

There is no assurance that we will operate profitably or will generate positive cash flow in the future. The Company has incurred losses since its inception. Such losses have resulted from engineering and management contracts and fuel sales, with favorable gross margins, which were more than offset by research, development and administrative expenses. As the engineering and management contracts expired, and the wholesale fuel business was discontinued, losses continued while the business focused on CBE research and development. If we cannot generate positive cash flows in the future, or raise sufficient financing to continue our normal operations, then we may be forced to scale down or even close our operations.

Due to the nature of our business and the early stage of our development, our securities must be considered highly speculative. Our future business will include licensing technology and designing facilities relating to the production of ethanol and related by-products from cellulosic feedstock and there is no assurance that we will realize any profits in the short or medium term. Any profitability our cellulosic ethanol production business does realize will also be dependent upon the successful commercialization or licensing of our core technology, which itself is subject to numerous risk factors as set forth herein.

Future Synergistic Projects

Our design also offers us better access to synergistic opportunities, such as co-locating CBE facilities with combined heat and power plants, pulp & paper industries and first generation ethanol production plants.

We have identified several potential projects and locations for plants using our technology and are currently conducting multiple pre-feasibility studies.

-24-

Production Processes

Several technologies have been developed to produce ethanol from biomass. Generally speaking, efforts to convert cellulose into ethanol follow one of two main processes:

Thermochemical conversion of biomass into synthesis gas or “syngas” (a process often referred to as “gasification”), followed by catalytic conversion of the syngas into mixed alcohols that include ethanol and/or alkaline via modified chemistry; or

Certain pretreatment with or without use of acids followed by enzymatic hydrolysis, converting cellulose and hemicellulose into sugars which are then fermented into ethanol.

KL has developed a proprietary process composed of thermal-mechanical pretreatment, enzymatic hydrolysis, lignin separation and co-fermentation of C5 and C6 sugars because we believe it has distinct advantages over the gasification methods. Gasification methods present a number of challenges, including the capital intensity of the process, selectivity of the syngas conversion to ethanol, and alcohol tolerance of the organisms capable of converting syngas to ethanol. Furthermore, unlike some other cellulosic ethanol technology, we use insignificant amounts of acid (less than .4% m/m) in our process, eliminating the environmental hazards that result with acid, and producing valuable by-products from the resulting lignin.

In terms of reduction of greenhouse gases, cellulosic ethanol represents a significant advance over grain-based ethanol. According to a report by Argonne National Laboratory, grain ethanol reduces greenhouse gas by 18% to 29% per vehicle mile traveled as compared to gasoline, while cellulosic ethanol reduces greenhouse gas emissions by approximately 85% per vehicle mile traveled. Other advantages may include additional revenues through the sale of carbon credits, federal and state tax incentives and other measures that result from governmental support of cellulosic ethanol.

Business Strategies

During the current year, we plan to continue to optimize our technology and to design the first commercial CBE facility. We intend to license our technology and contract our design engineering to third parties. We will focus on developing cellulosic ethanol projects integrated into existing industries, like sugarcane and pulp and paper mills, together with partners that will help us accelerate the commercialization of our cellulosic technology and expand our global market presence. These strategic partners and alliances provide an important advantage in realizing success in commercializing our process technologies. Key elements of our business strategy are:

¨ Developing and supplying the technologies for commercial production of cellulosic ethanol from certain biomass feedstocks like sugarcane bagasse, eucalyptus and other hardwood residues . The design and production strategy involves developing scalable facilities preferably with integrated Combined Heat and Power (CHP) and Bio-Lignin production, based on available feedstock supplies and providing a commercially viable alternative for local energy and economic needs.

¨ Developing national and international strategic partnerships and strategic alliances . We intend to develop our projects together with partners that will help accelerate the commercialization of our cellulosic technology and expand our global market presence. These strategic partners and alliances will be important in accelerating the commercialization of our process technologies.

The Company has entered into a memorandum of understanding with Suzano Papel e Celulose S.A. (“Suzano”), a Brazilian corporation that is the second largest producer of eucalyptus pulp in the world, to conduct joint R&D, jointly design, build and operate a pilot plant in Brazil and to license KL's technology to Suzano for the construction of commercial facilities integrated into Suzano’s pulp and paper mills in Brazil.

We have not sold a material amount of ethanol and/or bio-lignin. Our WBE facility is currently designed to gather data for process enhancements, provide input to the design of commercial-scale projects and validate our technology as part of the feasibility studies.

-25-

Challenges

KL Energy’s success depends on the ability to develop and license multiple projects while also enhancing our process technology. This strategy places increased demand on our limited human resources and requires us to substantially expand the capabilities of our operational staff. The ability to attract, train, manage and retain qualified management, technical, and engineering personnel presents one of our greatest challenges. Other significant challenges are:

●

A significant portion of our business is in the process of scaling-up to commercial operations, causing us to rely on outside sources of funding, rather than supporting ourselves from our own operations.

●

We may be unable to raise debt or equity funding, upon which we will be highly dependent, in the near term.

●

Our poor liquidity may deter existing or potential vendors, suppliers or customers from engaging in transactions with us.

●

We depend on enzymes, some of which are in the research and development phase, which currently represent a significant and volatile expense in the CBE production process. Recent developments have demonstrated that these costs should continue to drop rapidly over the next two years.

●

Our industry continues to develop both existing and emerging competitors and competitive technologies.

Effective August 23, 2010, Petrobras Brasileiro Ltda., through its subsidiary Petrobras America, Inc. ((“Petrobras”), entered into a Joint Development Agreement (“JDA”) with the Company to jointly optimize our proprietary cellulosic ethanol process technology for sugarcane bagasse feedstock (“Bagasse”). The latest generation of the Company’s process design provides for substantial enhancements over the first generation, implemented in 2008 at the Company’s demonstration plant in Upton, Wyoming using Ponderosa Pine feedstock, including the ability to be optimized for multiple feedstocks. As part of this agreement, Petrobras will provide up to $11 million to adapt the Company’s demonstration facility to the use of Bagasse, validate the optimized process by producing cellulosic ethanol and bio-lignin from Bagasse in multiple campaigns and license the technology. In parallel, Petrobras and KL will jointly work on an industrial scale Bagasse based cellulosic ethanol plant project that shall be fully integrated into a sugarcane mill belonging to the Petrobras Group in Brazil slated to go on stream in 2013 and capable of producing 15 million liters per year. The agreement, which has an initial term of 18 months and provides for mutual exclusivity in the area of developing cellulosic ethanol from Bagasse, provides Petrobras with the option to enter into a technology license for the use of the Company’s technology within Petrobras Group assets.

On September 24, 2010, KL Energy Corporation (the “Company”) entered into a Termination Agreement (the “Termination Agreement”) with Greenext Energy Europe S.A, a foreign corporation organized under the laws of Luxembourg (“Greenext”). The Termination Agreement provides for the termination of that certain sublicense previously granted to Greenext, and all rights and licenses thereunder (the “Sublicense”), with respect to the technology subject to that certain Technology License Agreement dated March 6, 2008 (the “License”) by and between KL Process Design Group, LLC (the Company’s predecessor company) and O2Diesel Europe, Plc. As consideration, the Company agreed to pay Greenext a termination fee of €40,000 (approximately $54,000). Greenext and its holding company, Pike S.A., also agreed to be sold and Greenext agreed to change its name, the occurrence of which will trigger an obligation by the Company to make a payment of €5,000 (approximately $7,000) the owner of the companies.

Recent Financing

Our recent financings are described in Notes 4 and 5 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Report and incorporated by reference herein.

Subsequent Events

Not applicable.

-27-

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates:

Restricted Cash

Restricted cash includes cash received from Petrobras Americas, Inc. (“Petrobras”) to be used for the projects included in the Joint Development Agreement between the Company and Petrobras.

Trade Receivables

Trade receivables are carried at original invoice less an estimate made for doubtful receivables based on a periodic review of all outstanding amounts. Management of the Company has established an allowance for doubtful accounts based on their estimate of uncollectible accounts and is established based on historical performance that is tracked by the Company on an ongoing basis. Trade receivables are written off when deemed uncollectible. Recoveries of trade receivables previously written off are recorded when received.

Long-Lived Assets

Costs incurred relating to construction-in-progress for plant facilities are capitalized when those costs are for the active development of the facility. Depreciation commences when the construction activity is completed and the additional assets are available for use.

Revenue and Cost Recognition

Revenue from joint development and funded research arrangements are accounted for using the proportional performance method under which revenue is recognized over the service term of such arrangements. If estimated total costs on this contract indicate a loss, we charge the entire estimated loss to operations in the period in which the loss becomes known. The cumulative effect of revisions to revenue, and estimated costs to complete this contract, are recorded in the accounting period in which the events indicating a loss or change in estimates are known and the loss can be reasonably estimated. Amounts billed in excess of revenue recognized are included on the consolidated balance sheet in deferred income.

Revenue from feedstock testing results from agreements with third parties for the Company to perform extensive tests to determine if the customer’s feedstock is a viable candidate for use in the production of cellulosic ethanol. The standard agreement requires that the customer pay 50% of the testing fee upon signing the feedstock testing agreement and the remaining 50% when the Company delivers a final report to the customer explaining the test results and conclusions. Feedstock testing revenues, and related expenses, are only recognized when this report is delivered.

Revenue from fixed price contracts is recognized on the percentage-of-completion method, measured by the percentage of costs incurred to date to estimated total costs for each contract. This method is used because management considers expended costs to be the best available measure of progress on these contracts. Contract costs include all direct material, subcontract and labor costs, and those indirect costs related to contract performance, such as labor, supply, tool, and depreciation costs. Operating costs are charged to expense as incurred. Revenue is reported net of sales tax collected. Provisions for estimated losses on uncompleted contracts are made in the period in which such losses are determined. Changes in job performance, job conditions, and estimated profitability, including those arising from contract penalty provisions and final contract settlements, may result in revisions to costs and income and are recognized in the period in which the revisions are determined.

Pre-contract costs directly associated with a specific contract are deferred as incurred in anticipation of that contract if recovery of these costs is determined to be probable. Conversely, if it appears unlikely that we will obtain the contract, all previously deferred costs are expensed. Such costs include consultant expenses for project development, technology improvements, facility engineering and feedstock evaluation expenses.

Based on our percentage-of-completion revenue recognition policy, revenues and costs associated with approved change orders are adjusted when Company and customer approvals of the change order are obtained. For unpriced or unapproved change orders, recovery must be deemed probable, if the future event or events necessary for recovery are likely to occur, at which time revenues and costs associated with the unpriced or unapproved change orders are adjusted. If change orders are in dispute or are unapproved in regard to both scope and price, they are evaluated as claims.

-28-

Claims are amounts in excess of the agreed contract price (or amounts not included in the original contract price) that a contractor seeks to collect from customers or others for customer-caused delays, errors in specifications and designs, contract terminations, change orders in dispute or unapproved as to both scope and price, or other causes of unanticipated additional costs.

Recognition of amounts of additional contract revenue relating to claims is made only if it is probable that the claim will result in additional contract revenue and if the amount can be reliably estimated. Those two requirements are satisfied by the existence of all of the following conditions:

a.) The contract or other evidence provides a legal basis for the claim; or a legal opinion has been obtained, stating that under the circumstances there is a reasonable basis to support the claim.

b.) Additional costs are caused by circumstances that were unforeseen at the contract date and are not the result of deficiencies in the contractor's performance.

c.) Costs associated with the claim are identifiable or otherwise determinable and are reasonable in view of the work performed.

d.) The evidence supporting the claim is objective and verifiable, not based on management's feel for the situation or on unsupported representations.

If the foregoing requirements are met, revenue from a claim is recorded only to the extent that contract costs relating to the claim have been incurred. Costs attributable to claims are treated as costs of contract performance as incurred.

The liability, "Billings in excess of costs and estimated earnings on uncompleted contracts," represents deferred revenue on the Petrobras engineering and design project.

Income Taxes

The Company uses the asset and liability method to account 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 basis. 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. The measurement of deferred tax assets is reduced, if necessary, by a valuation allowance for future tax benefits for which realization is not considered more likely than not.

Share Based Compensation

We follow the guidance in FASB Topic 718 related to share-based payments to recognize all grants of stock options in our financial statements based upon their respective grant date fair values. Under this standard, the fair value of each employee stock option is estimated on the date of grant using an option pricing model that meets certain requirements. We currently use the Black-Scholes option pricing model to estimate the fair value of our stock options. The Black-Scholes model meets the requirements of FASB Topic 718 but the fair values generated by the model may not be indicative of the actual fair values of our equity awards as it does not consider certain factors important to those awards to employees, such as continued employment and periodic vesting requirements.

The determination of the fair value of share-based payment awards utilizing the Black-Scholes model is affected by our stock price and a number of assumptions, including expected volatility, expected life of each award and risk-free interest rates. We use a historical volatility rate on our stock options. The fair value of our common stock is based on recent private placement transactions by the Company, as of the date of the grant, which have been at $1.10 per share. Because its stock is not actively traded, the Company believes that values for our common stock, as reported on the OTC Bulletin Board prior to the Company’s stock being deleted in March 2010 and particularly at March 31, 2011, are not indicative of the market value of the business. If there are any modifications or cancellations of the underlying securities, we may be required to accelerate, increase or cancel any remaining unearned stock-based compensation expense. To the extent that we grant additional equity securities to employees, directors and consultants, our stock-based compensation expense will be increased by the additional unearned compensation resulting from those additional grants.

Hybrid Financial Instruments and Warrants

The Company accounts for hybrid financial instruments (convertible notes with embedded derivative features such as conversion options and down-round protection) and related warrants by recording the fair value of each hybrid instrument in its entirety and recording the fair value of the warrant derivative liability. Changes in the fair value in subsequent periods are recorded as unrealized gain or loss on fair value of debt instruments for the hybrid financial instruments and as derivative income or expense for the warrants. Accounting for hybrid financial instruments and derivatives is discussed more fully in Notes 4 and 5.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We had approximately $1,764,000 of cash and cash equivalents, $437,000 in restricted cash related to the Petrobras project, approximately $896,000 in raw material inventories (primarily related to the Petrobras project), approximately $19,000 in receivables and approximately $323,000 of prepaid insurance and Petrobras project expenses at March 31, 2011. Our total current assets at March 31, 2011 were approximately $3,420,000. As of that date, we also had non-current assets, consisting of net property, plant and equipment, of approximately $3,827,000. Our total assets as of March 31, 2011 were approximately $7,247,000.

During first quarter of 2011, we received an additional $200,000 in proceeds from secured convertible debt to fund operating activities and allow our borrowing commitments to remain current. The Company expects to rely on funds raised from this recent private placement, as well as future equity and debt offerings to implement our growth plan and meet our liquidity needs going forward. While we continue to seek additional financing, there are currently no specific arrangements for any external financing of debt or equity and we are not certain whether any such financing would be available on terms acceptable to us, if at all.

We estimate that our average monthly operating expenses will continue to be approximately $450,000 per month or $5.4 million over the next twelve months. Such costs primarily consist of approximately 50% in personnel wages and benefits, approximately 35% in legal, audit, fund-raising, public relations, etc. consulting fees and travel expenses, approximately 10% in debt payments and the remainder, net of feedstock testing income, is primarily for WBE plant operations and laboratory expenses. We believe that cash on hand and the recent borrowings, other firm commitments, and continuing discussions with existing as well as new interested investors, will adequately provide for the operating activities of the Company for the remainder of calendar 2011.

In their report dated March 17, 2011, the Company’s auditors indicated there was substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern without any adequate fund-raising. Accordingly, unless we raise additional working capital, obtain project financing and/or revenues grow to support our business plan, we may be unable to remain in business.

Line of Credit; Loans

We are a guarantor for, and making payments with respect on, a note payable by WBE to Security National Bank which had a balance of $1,239,772 at March 31, 2011. Pursuant to an amendment executed during the first quarter of 2011, principal and interest payments of $17,560 are due to be made from March 2011 until the maturity date of March 2012, which was extended for an additional year based on the Company’s compliance with the note terms. This note bears interest at 6.5% and is secured by substantially all of the assets of WBE and guaranteed by certain WBE members and the Company.

-30-

The Company had total current liabilities of approximately $17,251,000 at March 31, 2011, which included convertible promissory notes payable of approximately $10,704,000, current maturities of long-term debt of approximately $1,308,000 and current maturities of subordinated debt – related party of approximately $397,000, accounts payable and payables to related parties of approximately $2,144,000 (including $440,000 representing the dilution-adjusted fair value of the potential additional issuance of shares to Add Blue), billings in excess of costs and estimated earnings on uncompleted contracts of approximately $282,000, deferred revenue of approximately $1,237,000 (primarily related to the Petrobras project), accrued payroll and other liabilities of approximately $805,000 (primarily legal fees of approximately $153,000, arbitration settlement accruals of $325,000, accounting and audit fees of approximately $65,000, other professional fees of approximately $1,000, accrued payroll of $78,000, and accrued interest, operating expenses and Petrobras project costs of approximately $183,000) as well as current liabilities of discontinued operations of approximately $316,000 (the settlement of which is dependent on the resolution of several litigation issues).

We had total long-term liabilities of approximately $6,476,000 at March 31, 2011 which includes approximately $6,465,000 in warrant derivative liabilities and approximately $11,000 in long-term debt related to equipment financing. Our total liabilities were approximately $23,288,000 as of March 31, 2011.

We have provided substantial funding for WBE, a 64%-owned subsidiary, relating to the demonstration of our cellulosic technology. As of March 31, 2011, WBE owed us approximately $10,271,000 pursuant to a senior secured note that includes the Company’s payments on WBE’s Security National Bank loan which had an original amount of approximately $1,985,000 and a balance of approximately $1,240,000 as of March 31, 2011. There is currently no specific repayment schedule for these debts owed to the Company by WBE.

Net Cash from Continuing Operations – Operating Activities

Our cash flow from operations has been negative since the inception of the Company. We do not anticipate that we will have a positive cash flow from operations in 2011. Whether we have positive cash flow in 2011 depends on whether we are able to realize engineering design and licensing revenue from new CBE projects started in 2010 and other operational revenue primarily related to feedstock testing. A significant portion of our business is still in the research and development phase and we expect to continue to incur losses until we have sold licenses or have our own plant(s) operating.

We are in the process of implementing cost control measures that should help us reach our technology and business goals more efficiently. We have implemented a strict budgetary and financial control process. We have also re-focused our human and financial resources towards the goal of providing technology, project development and engineering services for cellulose based ethanol second generation integrated facilities and eliminated positions that are not critical to this business mission.

During the period from our inception to March 31, 2011, we have incurred significant net losses. At March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively, we had negative working capital (i.e. current assets less current liabilities) of approximately $13.8 million and $6.1 million, respectively. Total liabilities exceeded total assets by approximately $16.4 million and $3.1 million at March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

During the three months ended March 31, 2011, our operating activities used a net of approximately $470,000 of cash. This reflected a net income of approximately $780,000, depreciation expense of approximately $261,000, stock based compensation expense of approximately $11,000, an increase in billings in excess of costs and estimated earnings on uncompleted contracts (approximately $282,000 related to the Petrobras project), accounts payable and payables to related parties of approximately $299,000 and accrued payroll and other liabilities of approximately $139,000 (primarily legal and consulting fees and Petrobras project costs) and decreases in restricted cash (approximately $908,000 related to the Petrobras project) and prepaid expenses (approximately $42,000). These were largely offset by the unrealized gain on fair value of secured promissory notes of approximately $710,000, derivative income of approximately $627,000 related to the warrant liability, an increase in inventories (approximately $596,000 - primarily feedstock for the Petrobras project) and a decrease in deferred revenue (approximately $818,000 - primarily related to the Petrobras project).

During the three months ended March 31, 2010, our operating activities used a net of approximately $1,238,000 of cash. This reflected a net loss of approximately $1,772,000 as well as an increase in receivables ($25,000) and prepaid expenses ($32,000) and a decrease in accounts payable ($31,000). These were largely offset by depreciation of approximately $483,000, stock based compensation expense of approximately $88,000, amortization of debt issuance costs of approximately $45,000 and an increase of approximately $7,000 in accrued payroll and other.

Net Cash from Continuing Operations - Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities was approximately $1,164,000 and $65,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. These funds were primarily used for the purchase of property, plant, and equipment for the WBE facility.

Net Cash from Continuing Operations – Financing Activities

Net cash used in our financing activities was approximately $109,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2011. During this period, we received approximately $200,000 in proceeds from convertible debt offset by approximately $89,000 of net payments on long-term debt and subordinated related party debt and the realized gain of approximately $220,000 from the fair value adjustment of our convertible promissory notes.

Net cash provided by our financing activities was approximately $1,608,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2010. During this period, we received approximately $2,000,000 in gross proceeds from the private placement of common stock, reduced by approximately $245,000 of related legal, professional and placement fees, offset by approximately $147,000 of net payments in subordinated related party and long-term debt.

Results of Operations for the Three Months Ended March 31, 2011 and 2010

Revenue

The Company recorded approximately $1,784,000 in revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2011 compared to $120,000 of feedstock testing revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2010. This increase in revenue is primarily attributable to the Petrobras sugarcane bagasse and engineering design projects.

Project Development Services Expenses

The company recorded approximately $707,000 of project development services costs for the three months ended March 31, 2011, compared to an absence of these costs in the prior year. This increase is solely attributable to the Petrobras project to optimize and validate our technology.

Engineering Services Expenses

The company recorded approximately $107,000 of engineering services costs for the three months ended March 31, 2011, compared to an absence of these costs in the prior year. This increase is solely attributable to the Petrobras engineering and design project.

General and Administrative Expenses

General and administrative expenses of approximately $789,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2011 compared to $940,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2010, a decrease of approximately $151,000 or 16%. This significant improvement was primarily attributable to lower net personnel costs of approximately $166,000 (of which approximately $122,000 was included in project development services), lower stock compensation costs of approximately $76,000, reduced advertising of approximately $20,000 and lower consulting fees of approximately $16,000 offset by higher legal and accounting fees of approximately $82,000 and travel expenses of approximately $45,000.

Research and Development Expenses

Research and development expense of approximately $499,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2011 compared to approximately $856,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2010, a decrease of approximately $357,000 or 42%. This significant decrease is primarily attributable to lower net personnel costs of approximately $200,000 (of which approximately $183,000 was included in project development services), lower WBE depreciation of $226,000 due to fully depreciated assets and approximately $16,000 in lower utility costs due to the WBE plant retrofit/shutdown offset by an increase of approximately $57,000 in lab interns, supplies and equipment and increased equipment repairs and environmental fees of approximately $25,000.

-32-

Acquisition of Licensing Rights

Pursuant to the Master Collaboration Agreement, dated August 30, 2010 and as amended, the Company agreed to issue shares of common stock and cash, over a period of approximately eight months, to add blue Consultoria, Ltda. (“add blue”) for the acquisition of the Company’s technology licensing rights obtained by add blue in previous agreements. Acquisition of licensing rights expense for the three months ended March 31, 2011 is $640,000, including an accrual for $440,000 representing the dilution-adjusted fair value of the potential additional issuance of shares to Add Blue, compared to $0 of such expenses in the three months ended March 31, 2010 since the agreement with add blue was not in effect until August 2010.

Other Income (Expense), Net

Other income (net) was approximately $1,298,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and was comprised of approximately $710,000 in unrealized gains on the fair value of convertible promissory notes, approximately $627,000 in derivative income related to the issuance of warrants and approximately $39,000 of interest and other expenses.

Other expense (net) was approximately $61,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and was comprised of approximately $40,000 of interest expense and approximately $22,000 in miscellaneous expense offset by approximately $1,000 of interest income.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

As a “smaller reporting company” defined in Item 10(f)(1) of Regulation S-K, we are electing scaled disclosure reporting obligations and therefore are not required to provide the information requested by this item.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Disclosure Controls and Procedures. We maintain disclosure controls and procedures designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in our reports under the United States Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation.

Our management, with the participation and oversight of our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, has reviewed and evaluated the design and effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report on Form 10-Q. Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of March 31, 2011, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as a result of the continued existence of material weaknesses in internal controls as identified more fully in “Item 9A (T) Controls and Procedures” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010. Material weaknesses in our disclosure controls and procedures were first identified by our independent audit firm during its audit procedures in mid-2008 as the Company prepared for its reverse merger.

These weaknesses include:

weak segregation of cash duties (such as expenses did not have adequate approval and bank reconciliations were not approved;

journal entries not approved by a non-preparer;

documentation, including signed contracts;

inadequately supported various transactions, and

inadequate internal technical expertise related to GAAP and SEC issues and regulations.

As a result of these weaknesses, and the difficulties encountered in the preparation of financial statements and footnotes, management determined that the Company’s internal controls were not effective. Many of these material weaknesses were a result of the Company’s lack of sufficient resources in its accounting department, a challenge that is likely to continue until the Company is in a financial position that it believes warrants adding additional resources. In light of these material weaknesses, we have taken the actions described below.

-33-

Because of these material weaknesses, we have added additional controls and performed procedures and analyses designed to ensure that our unaudited consolidated financial statements are presented fairly in all material respects in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. We relied on increased monitoring and review to compensate for the material weaknesses in our internal controls. Accordingly, management believes that the unaudited consolidated financial statements included in this quarterly report fairly present, in all material respects, our financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented.

Internal Controls. In order to remediate the weaknesses in our disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting identified in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the period ended December 31, 2010 we have taken and continue to take the following actions during the period covered by this report:

mandated the segregation of duties regarding cash transactions;

increased the oversight and review functions over internally developed documentation;

maintained a Disclosure Committee to review material developments at the Company, as well as the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures;

engaged a Chief Financial Officer and outside securities counsel, both with SEC reporting experience, and

utilized, as needed, a third-party financial consulting firm to assist management in evaluating complex accounting issues and implement a system to improve control and review procedures over all financial statement and account balances.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

As a result of the Company’s actions described above, there were changes in our internal controls over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the first quarter of 2011 that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Management does not expect that our disclosure controls or our internal control over financial reporting will prevent or detect all errors and fraud. A control system cannot provide absolute assurance due to its inherent limitations as it is a process that involves human diligence and is subject to lapses in judgment and breakdowns resulting from human failures. However, these inherent limitations are known features of the financial reporting process; therefore, it is possible to design into the process safeguards to reduce, though not eliminate, this risk.
