FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

6 Months Ended

NOTE 15

FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

The Company adopted certain provisions of ASC Topic 820. ASC 820 defines fair value, provides a consistent framework for measuring fair value under generally accepted accounting principles and expands fair value financial statement disclosure requirements. ASC 820’s valuation techniques are based on observable and unobservable inputs. Observable inputs reflect readily obtainable data from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect our market assumptions. The Company determines the fair value of its liabilities, on a recurring basis using significant observable inputs. The fair value measurement of these liabilities is consistent with ASC 820, "Fair Value Measurements" ASC 820 did not have an impact on the consolidated financial position or results of operations; however, the required disclosure for the six months ended June 30, 2013 is as follows:

ASC 820 classifies these inputs into the following hierarchy:

Level 1 inputs: Quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets.

Level 2 inputs: Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations whose inputs are observable or whose significant value drivers are observable.

Level 3 inputs: Instruments with primarily unobservable value drivers.

The following table represents the fair value hierarchy for those financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of June 30, 2013:

	Level 1		Level 2		Level 3		Total

Investment-Equity Method		-		355,842		-		355,842
Investment-Cost Method		-		-		-		-
Convertible notes		-		-		349,500		349,500
