NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Organization

The condensed consolidated financial statements include NEW LEAF BRANDS, INC. (“the Company”) and its wholly-owned subsidiaries Nutritional Specialties and Baywood New Leaf Acquisition, Inc. Nutritional Specialties was acquired by the Company effective March 30, 2007. Skae Beverage International LLC was acquired by Baywood New Leaf Acquisition, Inc. effective September 9, 2008. On July 24, 2009 the Company sold substantially all of our rights and assets of Nutritional Specialties to Nutra, Inc.

The Company develops markets and distributes healthy and functional ready-to-drink (“RTD”) beverages. The Company distributes its products through independent distributors both internationally and domestically.

The Company incorporated as Baywood Financial, Inc. in Nevada on June 13, 1986. In March 1992, the Company changed its name from Baywood Financial, Inc. to Baywood International, Inc. Between 1992 and 1998, the Company directed most of its sales efforts to nutraceutical international markets. In 1999, the Company expanded its nutraceutical business into domestic markets.

Baywood International, Inc. changed its name effective October 16, 2009 to New Leaf Brands, Inc. to reflect the change in strategic direction with the sale of Baywood International, Inc.’s nutraceutical businesses on October 9, 2009. The name change was effective in the market at the opening of business October 19, 2009, at which time the Company’s ticker symbol changed from BAYW.OB to NLEF.OB.

On April 9, 2012 the Company completed the sale of its non-operating subsidiary Nutritional Specialties, Inc. (NSI) to Deep South Capital, LLC (DSCL). The terms of the divestiture included consideration of $1.00 plus the assumption of certain liabilities by DSCL. In addition, the Company gave DSCL 6,000,000 shares of the Company’s stock as a reserve against possible offsets. The transaction may reduce liabilities by approximately $835,000.

Basis of presentation

In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited, condensed, consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position of New Leaf Brands, Inc. (“New Leaf” or the “Company”) and its results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods presented. Such financial statements have been condensed in accordance with the applicable regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and, therefore, do not include all disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with New Leaf's audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2011, included in New Leaf's Annual Report filed on Form 10-K for such fiscal year.

The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2012 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the entire fiscal year.

The condensed consolidated financial statements were prepared using accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”). These principles require the Company to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Reclassification

In connection with the preparation of its March 31, 2012 financial statements, the Company has reclassed $349,243 from notes payable to additional paid in capital to properly account for the convertible debt and warrants issued in December 2011. The Company determined that the amount was not material to the financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2011. There was no impact on the statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2011 or the quarter ended March 31, 2012.

2. GOING CONCERN

The Company has a history of recurring losses from continuing operations, deficiencies in working capital and limited cash on hand as of March 31, 2012. To date, it has also been unable to generate sustainable cash flows from operating activities. In addition, the Company has $4,477, 834 in current liabilities payable within the next twelve months including an obligation which is currently in default (see Item 3 - DEFAULTS UPON SENIOR SECURITIES). For the three months ended March 31, 2012, the Company’s loss from continuing operations was $2,760,073. As of March 31, 2012, the Company’s cash and cash equivalents and working capital deficiency are $154,436 and $ 3,792,401) respectively. Collectively, these factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

The Company’s existence is dependent upon its ability to obtain necessary financing. The Company believes that its existing cash resources, combined with projected cash flows from operations, will not be sufficient to execute its business plan and continue operations for the next twelve months without additional funding. The Company intends to continue to explore various strategic alternatives, including asset sales and private placements of debt and equity securities to raise additional capital. In the first half of 2012, the Company raised gross proceeds of $767,606 pursuant to Unsecured Note Issuances in February 2012 and the Warrant reset and Exchange Offer in March and May 2012 (Subsequent Events). In addition, the Company raised an additional $360,000 in the second half of 2012 and $150,000 in January 2013. In addition to paying down and restructuring its debt, management is actively taking steps to reduce the Company’s future operating expenses and increase future sales. However, the Company cannot provide any assurance that operating results will generate sufficient cash flow to meet its working capital needs and service its existing debt or that it will be able to raise additional capital as needed. As such the Company’s corporate strategy has broadened from solely New Leaf lemonades and teas to an acquirer of mature beverage distributors and manufactures.

The condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of asset carrying amounts or the amount and classification of liabilities that might result should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The Company has identified the policies below as critical to its business operations and the understanding of the results of its operations. The impact and any of its associated risks related to these policies on the Company’s business operations are discussed throughout this section.

Principles of consolidation

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of all subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

Inventories

Inventories consist primarily of raw material and finished product and are recorded at the lower of cost (on an average cost basis) or market. Inventories consisted of the following:

	March 31, 2012		December 31, 2011
	(unaudited)
Raw material	$	168,567	$	133,376
Finished goods		33,905		30,333
	$	202,472	$	163,709

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are recorded at cost and depreciated using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives of five years. Property and Equipment consisted of the following:

	March 31 2012		December 31 2011
	(unaudited)
Furniture and fixtures	$	19,539	$	19,539
Computers		125,654		125,654
Equipment		21,199		21,199
Total		166,392		166,392
Less: Accumulated depreciation		115,382		108,392
Net property and equipment	$	51,010	$	58,000

Intangible assets

Intangible assets consist of brand value resulted from the September 9, 2008 acquisition of certain net assets from Skae Beverage International, LLC. Intangible assets consisted of the following at March 31, 2012 (unaudited) and December 31, 2011:

	Brand Value – New Leaf Tea
Asset value at December 31, 2011	$	4,760,824
Accumulated amortization		(1,488,215	)
Impairment of intangibles		(2,155,000	)
Net asset value at December 31, 2011	$	1,117,609

Asset value at March 31, 2012	$	2,605,824
Accumulated amortization		(1,531,876	)
Net asset value at March 31, 2012	$	1,073,948

During the quarter ended September 30, 2011, the Company determined that a triggering event occurred and performed an interim impairment analysis. The interim impairment analysis resulted in an impairment of $1,100,000 for the third quarter of 2011. During the year ended December 31, 2011, the Company determined that the economic uncertainty surrounding the Company’s ability to remain in business triggered an impairment analysis. The Company’s interim and annual tests, using predominately a discounted cash flow model derived from internal budgets in assuming fair values for the impairment testing. Factors that could change the result of our impairment test include, but are not limited to, different assumptions used to forecast future net sales, expenses, capital expenditures and resources, and liquidity and working capital requirements used in our cash flow models. In addition, selection of a risk-adjusted discount rate on the estimated undiscounted cash flow is susceptible to future changes in market conditions, and when unfavorable, can adversely affect our original estimates of fair value. The Company’s key assumptions used in its annual impairment analysis included the following: a discount rate of 18% based on the estimated weighted average cost of capital from the market participant point of view; royalty rate of 4.0%; an average perpetual growth rate of 66% for six years and a tax rate of 38%. An increase in the discount rate of 1% or a 1% deterioration of the perpetual revenue growth rate would increase the impairment loss by approximately $38,000 or $11,000, respectively. The Company bases its fair value estimates on assumptions it believes to be reasonable, but which are unpredictable and inherently uncertain. For the year ended December 31, 2011, the impairment of the Company’s brand value mainly resulted in the decline in its projected revenues and operating results and cash flows. The Company has concluded that impairment had existed at December 31, 2011 and has recorded an impairment charge, measured as the amount by which the carrying amount of the long-lived asset exceeds its fair value, of $2,155,000 for the year ended December 31, 2011. In conjunction with preparing the revised forecasts, the Company reevaluated the remaining estimated useful lives of the long-lived intangibles and concluded there is no change in its estimated remaining useful lives.

The brand value (including Trademarks and Trade Names) of continuing operations are being amortized over the estimated life of ten years. Amortization expense for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011 was $43,662 and $120,624 respectively. The aggregate amortization for the years ended December 31, 2012 through December 31, 2016 and years thereafter is as follows:

Year	Amortization
2012	$	130,997
2013		159,658
2014		159,658
2015		159,658
2016		159,658
Thereafter		304,319
Total	$	1,073,948

Option -Warrants issued on debt and beneficial conversion

The Company estimates the fair value of each option and warrant grant and beneficial conversion on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The option and warrant estimates are based on the following assumptions for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011 (unaudited):

	March 31, 2012		March 31, 2011
Dividend yield		0%		0%
Volatility	125.46% to 202.28%		56% to 98%
Risk free interest rate	0.17% to 1.01%		0.2% to 2.4%
Expected term	1.08 to 5 years		0.29 to 5 years

The Company accounts for the beneficial conversion feature of debt and preferred stock using intrinsic value method measure at the date of issuance.

Derivatives

As part of certain note and warrant agreements, the Company has provided holders with the option to convert the note or exercise the warrant into the Company’s common stock at a specified strike price. In order to prevent dilution, if the new strike price may be lower than the original strike price on the day of conversion or exercise, the strike price would be lowered to the new conversion or exercise price. The Company has determined that these types of down round protection terms are considered derivatives.

The Company originally estimated the fair value of these warrants using a Black-Scholes valuation model. The same valuation model approach is applied to the market price of the Company’s common stock at March 31, 2012 and 2011 to determine the amount of the derivative relative to the down round protection. The change in this derivative value is included in the consolidated statement of operations as a change in fair value of derivative liabilities. The Company considers these derivative instruments as used for the purpose of securing financing.

The following table summarizes the fair value of warrants classified as liability instruments, recorded on the consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2012 (all of which are calculated using level 3 fair value measurements):

	Total Fair Value
	of Derivative as of
Offering	March 31, 2012
2006 and 2008 Bridge Financing	$	1,210
Warrants issued to Series I and J Preferred Stock holders		436
October 2009 notes		6,309
February 2010 stock and warrant issuance		72,057
April 2010 stock and warrant issuance		67,483
September 2010 notes		141,444
	$	288,939

The following table summarizes the changes in fair value of warrant liabilities (a level 3 fair value measurement) during the three months ended March 31, 2012:

Balance at December 31, 2011	$	45,616
Reclassification of derivative liability on warrant exercised		(13,633)
Change in fair value of derivative instruments included in net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2012		256,956

Balance at March 31, 2012	$	288,939

On March 7, 2012 the Company commenced a warrant reset and exercise offer to eligible holders of its outstanding warrants, pursuant to which all issued and outstanding warrants to purchase common stock of the Corporation issued, irrespective of current exercise price or expiration date, may, in each holder’s sole discretion, be exercised at $0.03 per share during the offer period. Approximately 15 investors elected to exercise their warrants for which the Company received $400,147 and issued 13,338,225 shares of common stock.

On February 3, 2012 one investor in our Series Preferred K converted 4 preferred shares into 2,266,667 shares of common stock and exercised a warrant to purchase 1,333,333 shares of common stock.

On February 24, 2012 one investor in our Series Preferred K converted 1.45 preferred shares into 1,210,000 shares of common stock.

Revenue Recognition, Sales Returns and Allowances

Revenue is recognized when the product is shipped. Sales returns are recorded as a reduction to sales when a customer and the Company agree a return is warranted. All returns must be authorized in advance and must be accompanied by an invoice number within 180 days. If returned, the Company’s customers are responsible for returning merchandise in resalable condition. Full credit cannot be given for merchandise that has been defaced, marked, stamped, or priced in any way. The Company does not accept products kept longer than two years. Management communicates regularly with customers to compile data on the volume of product being sold to the end consumer. This information is used by management to evaluate the need for additional sales returns allowance. The Company’s experience has been such that sales returns can be estimated accurately based on feedback from the customer.

Net Loss per Share of Common Stock

Net loss per share is calculated using the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. The Company has adopted the Earnings Per Share Topic of the Codification (ASC Topic 260-10). Diluted earnings (loss) per share is computed similar to basic earnings (loss) per share except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the potential common shares had been issued and if the additional common shares were dilutive. Diluted earnings (loss) per share may not been presented if the effect of the assumed exercise of options and warrants to purchase common shares would have an anti-dilutive effect.

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes under the liability method under the Income Taxes Topic of the Codification (ASC Topic 740-10). Deferred taxes arise from temporary differences, due to differences between accounting methods for tax and financial statement purposes. The Company establishes a valuation allowance for the uncertainty related to its ability to generate sufficient future taxable income to utilize the net operating loss carry forwards and other deferred items.

The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions in interest and general and administrative expense. As of March 31, 2012, the Company has no unrecognized tax positions, including interest and penalties.

The tax years 2008-2011 are open to examination by the major tax jurisdictions in which the Company operates.

Comprehensive Income (Loss)

The Company accounts for its Comprehensive Income (Loss) under the Topic of the Codification (ASC Topic 220-10), “Comprehensive Income (Loss),” establishes standards for the reporting and display of comprehensive income (loss) and its components within the financial statements. Other comprehensive income (loss) consists of charges or credits to stockholders’ equity, other than contributions from or distributions to stockholders, excluded from the determination of net income (loss). There were no other components of comprehensive income (loss) other than the net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

Financial Instruments

Financial instruments consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and obligations under accounts payable, accrued expenses, derivatives and notes payables. The carrying amounts of cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable, short term debt obligations and accrued expenses approximate fair value because of the short term maturity of those instruments.

Fair Value Measurements

The Company applies recurring fair value measurements to its derivative liabilities. In determining fair value, the Company uses a market approach and incorporates assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the liability, including assumptions about risk and/or the risks inherent in the inputs to the valuation techniques. These inputs can be readily observable, market corroborated, or generally unobservable internally-developed inputs. Based upon the observation of the inputs used in these valuation techniques, the Company's derivative liabilities are classified as follows:

●

Level 1: The fair value of derivative liabilities classified as Level 1 is determined by unadjusted quoted market prices in active markets for identical liabilities that are accessible at the measurement date. The Level 1 inputs used in calculating the fair value of derivative liabilities include traded market values and volatilities calculated thereon.

●

Level 2: The fair value of derivative liabilities classified as Level 2 is determined by quoted market prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted market prices in markets that are not active or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data. The Level 2 inputs used in calculating the fair value of derivative liabilities include current published yields on United States Treasury securities.

●

Level 3: The fair value of derivative liabilities classified as Level 3 is determined by internally-developed models and methodologies utilizing significant inputs that are generally less readily observable from objective sources. The Level 3 inputs used in calculating the fair value of derivative liabilities include the remaining terms of the warrants and effective exercise prices.

5. CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK

Financial instruments which potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash, cash equivalents and trade receivables. The Company maintains the majority of its cash and cash equivalents in the form of demand deposits with financial institutions that management believes are creditworthy. At March 31, 2012, the cash balances in these institutions were insured in full by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. Concentrations of credit risk relative to trade receivables are limited due to our diverse client base.

As discussed in the section “NEAR TERM BUSINESS STRATEGY”, on February 14, 2012, the Board elected David Fuselier as New Leaf’s Chairman, President, and Chief Executive Officer and simultaneously, Eric Skae stepped down as our Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer. Mr. Fuselier immediately implemented a turnaround plan to (a) refocus our sales and marketing efforts to our core product markets, (b) restructure corporate operations and product mix to significantly improve operating margins, (c) achieve significant debt restructurings and interim financings to both strengthen the balance sheet and support sustainable growth and (d) achieve additional tactical and strategic financing to support anticipated growth, research and development and release of new product lines and acquisitions.

While the Company made considerable progress towards the turnaround plan during the three months ended March 31, 2012, a delay in interim financing delayed production, shipment of open customer orders and inventory purchases from distributors until after the period ended. Production and sales activity resumed during the first week of April, 2012.

The aggregate accounts receivable from three customers amounted to 81% of the accounts receivable balance outstanding at March 31, 2012.

The aggregate accounts payable due to the top four vendors amounted to approximately 32% of the accounts payable balance outstanding March 31, 2012.

A slowdown or loss of these customers or vendors could materially adversely affect the results of operations and the Company’s ability to generate significant cash flow.

Each Unsecured Note is convertible thirteen months after their respective issuance dates into common stock at a conversion price equal to the greater of (i) the Variable Conversion Price of 50% of the Market Price and (ii) the Fixed Conversion Price of $0.01. The investors also received 25,000,000 5 year warrants at a strike price of $0.03 per share. In addition the investors received the right to invest in new notes on the same basis as provided.

The Company also filed a Certificate of Designation of its Certificate of Incorporation which created a class of 1,000 shares of Series K 10% Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $.001 per share. The Series K Preferred Stock ranks senior to the common stock, carries a 10% cumulative rate of interest, has a liquidation preference and is convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock at $.15 per share, subject to adjustment and anti-dilution protection. The Series K Stock is callable and redeemable by the Company under certain circumstances. The Series K Stock may be converted by the Company into shares of its common stock if the market price of the common stock is at least 300% of the conversion price for a period of 30 days and at least 200,000 shares have traded each day during such 30 day period.

(1)

The exercise price of the warrants and the number of warrant shares subject thereto shall be subject to adjustment in the event of stock splits, stock dividends, reverse stock splits, and similar events. Further, in the event that the Company should issue shares of its Common Stock at an effective price per share less than the then effective exercise price of the warrants, the exercise price and the number of warrant shares subject to such warrants shall be adjusted on a weighted average basis to reflect the dilution represented by the issuance of such shares of Common Stock and such lower effective price on a non-fully-diluted basis, subject to similar exceptions to those described for such adjustments above with respect to the Convertible Preferred Stock. The impact of this provision would be to reduce the exercise price. The warrants contain standard reorganization provisions. Therefore, these warrants are qualified as liability instruments upon issuance.

In February 2010, the Company issued a side letter to investors in the private placements which closed in December 2009 and February 2010 which effectively amended the terms of the private placements to contain a price protection clause through April 30, 2010. The price protection clause required the Company to issue additional warrants to these investors, based upon a formula contained in the side letter, in the event that common stock was issued during the price protection period at an effective price less than the purchase price paid by such investors, subject to certain exceptions.

During the year ended December 31, 2011, the Company issued 100,000 warrants for marketing services at an exercise price of $0.15 per share with a fair value of $10,388, 43,922,280 warrants were issued in conjunction with the issuance of Series K Preferred shares, 361,000 warrants were issued to the placement agent of the Series K Preferred shares, 6,833,333 warrants were issued for the conversion of certain notes payable into Series K Preferred shares, and 1,000,000 warrants were issued in conjunction with the conversion of vendor payables. In April 2011, the Company made an offer to the series X, Y and Z warrant holders to exercise their warrants at an exercise price of $0.075 per warrant share; certain warrant holders accepted the Company’s offer and exercised 6,666,665 warrants for $500,000. In addition a series K Preferred shareholder forfeited 666,667 series X warrants and 1,333,313 series Y warrants and a warrant holder who, as previously described, received warrants as part of the conversion certain notes payable agreed to forfeit 4,066,667 series X warrants.

The fair value was determined using the Black-Scholes-Merton option valuation model using the following assumptions:

Stock price	$	0.015 to 0.06
Term (Years)	5
Volatility		125.46 to 126.53	%
Risk-free interest rate		0.81 to 1.01	%
Exercise price		0.03

Stock options

Under the Company’s Employee Incentive Stock Option Plan (the “1996 Plan”) approved by the stockholders in 1996, the total number of shares of Common Stock that may be granted is 500,000, amended to 325,000 in 1999. The 1996 Plan provides that shares granted come from the Company’s authorized but unissued Common Stock. The price of the options granted pursuant to these plans will not be less than 100% of the fair market value of the shares on the date of grant. The options expire ten years from date of grant. At the Company’s Annual Meeting held on December 10, 2004, the Company’s stockholders approved the 2004 Stock Option Plan (the "2004 Plan").

The option vesting period is determined by the Board of Directors at the time of grant and ranges from immediately to five years. The Company did not grant any stock options to directors and employees during the three months ended March 31, 2012. Compensation cost recognized during the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011 related to stock-based awards was $12,561 and $62,217 respectively. Options are usually issued at an exercise price equal to or above the fair value at the date of grant. The fair value of each option grant is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes-Merton option-pricing model

15. RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In June 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-05, Comprehensive Income (Topic 220), Presentation of Comprehensive Income. This update is intended to increase the prominence of other comprehensive income in the financial statements by requiring public companies to present comprehensive income either as a single statement detailing the components of net income and total net income, the components of other comprehensive income and total other comprehensive income, and a total for comprehensive income or using a two statement approach including both a statement of income and a statement of comprehensive income. The option to present other comprehensive income in the statement of changes in equity has been eliminated. The amendments in this update, which should be applied retrospectively, are effective for public companies for fiscal years, and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2011. The Company adopted this pronouncement in the first quarter of 2012.

In September 2011, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-08, “Testing Goodwill for Impairment” (ASU 2011-08).

Under ASU 2011-08, an entity has the option to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether the existence of events or circumstances leads to a determination that it is more likely than not (a likelihood of more than 50%) that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. If an entity believes, as a result of its qualitative assessment that the fair value of a reporting unit is greater than its carrying amount, performing the current two-step impairment test is not required. The guidance also includes a number of events and circumstances that an entity to consider in conducting the qualitative assessment. ASU 2011-08 is effective for annual and interim goodwill impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011. Early adoption is permitted, if an entity has not yet issued financial statements for the most recent annual or interim period, provided the entity has not yet performed its annual impairment test. We do not expect this guidance to have a material impact on our financial statements.

The preparation of this quarterly report on Form 10-Q requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of our Financial Statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Our actual results reported in the future may differ from those estimates and revisions of these estimates may become necessary in the future.

GENERAL STRATEGY

We are a diversified beverage holding company acquiring brands, distributors and manufacturers within the beverage industry. Our strategy follows the initial success of our award winning New Leaf Brands ready-to-drink teas and lemonades. We intend to continue to market broadly our New Leaf branded products as well as acquire additional regional beverage brands in complementary categories. As part of our brand acquisition strategy, we will acquire a portfolio of branded proprietary products, with distinctive packaging and deep regional appeal, in the following categories:

●	Ready–to-drink Lemonades and Teas

●	Carbonated Beverages

●	Juice and Juice Blends

●	Weight Control drinks

●	Water and Enhanced Water

●	Functional/Health and Wellness drinks

These categories are tailored toward premium, gourmet and healthy lifestyles for the “quality-value” expectations of our consumers. We believe that each acquired brand, in its category, will provide established regional distribution for the Company’s full array of other beverage products and, ultimately, lead to more channels of distribution.

New Leaf is the company’s flagship brand in the ready to drink Lemonade and Iced Tea category. We intend to acquire additional brands to enhance our flagship brand in the coming years. We believe that our products are well-positioned to continue to grow and possess a competitive advantage in creativity, flavor, ingredients and packaging. As of May 30, 2012, New Leaf Brands’ beverages are sold in seven states, through 30 distributors in over 8,000 outlets. We anticipate organic expansion of our business by targeting additional wholesale distributors, larger mainstream grocery stores, convenience and drug store channels.

At New Leaf Beverages we develop, market and distribute healthy and functional ready-to-drink teas and lemonades under the New Leaf® brand. We focus primarily on functional ready-to-drink beverages, which include teas, lemonades and other functional drinks. New Leaf offers natural iced-tea and lemonade beverage which are sweetened with evaporated pure cane sugar and specifically formulated to address an unmet consumer demand in the very competitive but rapidly growing ready-to-drink beverage market. The pure cane sugar sweetening creates a premium product with 20-30% fewer calories than competing brands who use high fructose corn syrup. New Leaf is available in 17 varieties of teas (including white, black, green, and blue teas) and lemonades (including half tea/half lemonade beverages).

Our broader strategy is to acquire established beverage distributors and manufacturers who choose to utilize New Leaf’s financial structure and access to capital. We intend to pursue moderate-sized regional distributors who will internalize our array of beverage products through proprietary distribution channels. Similarly, we intend to pursue beverage production, where appropriate, to reduce our internal cost of production and to increase our delivered margin per case.

NEAR TERM BUSINESS STRATEGY

Throughout 2012, we experienced significant financial challenges. We reported in our annual report for the year ended December 31, 2011 on Form 10-K, filed on July 30, 2012, that without additional funding we would be forced to cut back or cease operations. We sought legal counsel to investigate reorganization and bankruptcy options and, upon consideration of the opinion of our advisors and the Board, retained Fuselier and Co. to evaluate turnaround alternatives. After consideration of the alternatives, on February 14, 2012, the Board elected David Fuselier as New Leaf’s Chairman, President, and Chief Executive Officer. Simultaneously, Eric Skae stepped down as our Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer. Mr. Fuselier immediately began implementing a restructuring and turnarounds plan that:

Refocused New Leaf Brands beverages to:

●	Focus and deliver growth on the core product markets

●	Focus on four key geographic markets: New York Metro, Mid-Atlantic, Florida, Southern California

●	Reduce supply chain costs

●	Focus on key distributors and value added partnerships

●	Restructure corporate operations and product mix to significantly improve operating margins.

●	Achieve significant debt restructurings and interim financings to both strengthen the balance sheet and support sustainable growth.

●	Seek additional tactical and strategic financing to support anticipated growth, research and development and release of new product lines.

Our ability to acquire new products is limited by our access to capital. We intend to continue to explore various strategic alternatives, including business combinations and private placements of debt and or equity securities to raise capital to grow our Company. We also intend to expand our business through mergers and acquisitions of appropriate complementary brands, distributors and manufacturers companies in our industry. We can provide no assurance that we will be able to raise sufficient capital under appropriate terms to complete our strategic objectives.

OUR PRODUCTS

TEAS New Leaf is a natural iced-tea beverage sweetened with organic cane sugar and specifically formulated to address what we believe is an unmet consumer demand in the very competitive, but rapidly growing, ready-to-drink beverage market. The organic cane sugar sweetening creates a premium and healthier product with 20-30% fewer calories than high fructose corn syrup competitors. New Leaf is available in 17 varieties that are all-natural and organically-sweetened, of which 6 are lemonades varieties. Varieties include white, black, green and blue teas, lemonades and half tea/half lemonade beverages. New Leaf products include:

Blue Teas		White Tea
●	Blue Tea with Lemon	●	White Tea with Honey Dew Melon
●	Blue Tea with Peach	●	White Tea with Strawberry
●	Blue Tea with Raspberry
●	Diet Blue Tea with Lemon	Black Tea
●	Diet Blue Tea with Peach		Sweet Tea
Green Teas
●	Green Tea with Ginseng and Honey	Lemonades
●	Green Tea with Plum	●	Strawberry
●	Green Tea with Mango	●	Homemade
		●	Black Cherry
		● ● ●	Tiger – Half and Half Lite Tiger – Half and Half Mango Lemonade

We also distinguish the New Leaf brand by creating unique flavors. For example, New Leaf introduced blue tea, also known as Oolong tea, to mainstream consumers. Oolong tea is sometimes referred to as “blue tea” because its dried leaves have a bluish hue. We believe that unique flavors will continue to attract the attention of consumers.

LEMONADES In April 2010, we introduced a lemonade brand available in three flavors -- Homemade, Black Cherry and Strawberry. Additionally, "The Tiger," half tea / half lemonade, debuted as part of our lemonade offerings. In October 2011, we introduced two new flavors, Mango Lemonade and Lite Tiger – Half and Half (sweetened with Sucralose and pure cane sugar). Our 100% natural lemonades are made with pure cane juice and contain 10% real fruit juice.

Our products are sold in a proprietary 16.9 ounce bottle designed specifically for our New Leaf brand. The bottles are labeled with vibrant colors and the New Leaf logo appeals to, and is recognizable by, consumers. New Leaf products emphasize wellness and innovation. Our non-diet varieties of New Leaf Tea have 70-80 calories per 8 ounce serving and are sweetened with pure cane sugar instead of high-fructose corn syrup.

Results of Operations for the three months Ended March 31, 2012 and 2011

Net sales from our operations, New Leaf Brands, for the three months ended March 31, 2012 were $0 compared to $687,586 for the same period last year. The decrease in net sales is primarily due to the temporary cessation of operations.

Cost of sales decreased to $20,738 for the three months period ending March 31, 2012 compared to $557,118 for the same period in 2011. The overall decrease in gross profit margin is primarily due to the temporary cessation of operations discussed above.

Shipping and handling expenses were $3,408 for the three months period ending March 31, 2012, and $127,833 for the same period in the prior year. The decrease of $124,425 was due primarily to the temporary cessation of activity during the three months ended March 31, 2012. Marketing expenses decreased from $617,997 for the three months ended March 31, 2011 to $102,728 in the same period in 2012. The decrease was attributable to the cessation of operations pending resolution of our capital constraints and progress on the turnaround plan. General and administrative costs were $2,715,717 for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and $569,829 for the same period in the prior year. The increase is primarily due to compensation related to the issuance of 28,000,000 shares under the Fuselier agreement for $173,600 and 54,500,000 shares of common stock as compensation to consultants and employees for $2,137,558. Depreciation and amortization expense was $50,651 for the three months ended March 31, 2012, and $129,292 for the same period in the prior year.

The Company evaluates intangible assets for potential impairment on an annual basis or whenever events or circumstances indicate that impairment may have occurred using a two-step process. The first step of the impairment test, used to identify potential impairment, compares the estimated fair value of the intangible with the related carrying amount. If the estimated fair value of the intangibles exceeds its carrying amount, the intangible is not considered to be impaired and the second step is unnecessary. During the quarter ended September 30, 2011, the Company determined that a triggering event occurred and performed an interim impairment analysis. The interim impairment analysis resulted in an impairment of $1,100,000 for the third quarter of 2011. During the year ended December 31, 2011, the Company determined that the economic uncertainty surrounding the Company’s ability to remain in business triggered an impairment analysis. The Company’s interim and annual tests, using predominately a discounted cash flow model derived from internal budgets in assuming fair values for the impairment testing. Factors that could change the result of our impairment test include, but are not limited to, different assumptions used to forecast future net sales, expenses, capital expenditures and resources, and liquidity and working capital requirements used in our cash flow models. In addition, selection of a risk-adjusted discount rate on the estimated undiscounted cash flow is susceptible to future changes in market conditions, and when unfavorable, can adversely affect our original estimates of fair value. The Company’s key assumptions used in its annual impairment analysis included the following: a discount rate of 18% based on the estimated weighted average cost of capital from the market participant point of view; royalty rate of 4.0%; an average perpetual growth rate of 66% for six years and a tax rate of 38%. An increase in the discount rate of 1% or a 1% deterioration of the perpetual revenue growth rate would increase the impairment loss by approximately $38,000 or $11,000, respectively. The Company bases its fair value estimates on assumptions it believes to be reasonable, but which are unpredictable and inherently uncertain. For the year ended December 31, 2011, the impairment of the Company’s brand value mainly resulted in the decline in its projected revenues and operating results and cash flows. The Company has concluded that impairment had existed at December 31, 2011 and has recorded an impairment charge, measured as the amount by which the carrying amount of the long-lived asset exceeds its fair value, of $2,155,000 for the year ended December 31, 2011. In conjunction with preparing the revised forecasts, the Company reevaluated the remaining estimated useful lives of the long-lived intangibles and concluded there is no change in its estimated remaining useful lives.

Total other income (expense) for the three month periods ended March 31, 2012 and 2011 was $ (133,159) and $(301,666), respectively. The decrease of $ 168,507 was due primarily to the change of fair values related to derivative liability of $(256,956) and gain on extinguishment of debt of $562,893.

There is no income tax benefit recorded for either period because any potential benefit of the income tax net operating loss carry forwards has been equally offset by an increase in the valuation allowance on the deferred income tax asset.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of March 31, 2012, we had $ 685,433 in current assets of which $194,128, or 28.32%, was cash and receivables. On average, our receivables are collected after 34 days outstanding. Inventories were $202,472 at March 31, 2012, an increase of $38,763 over the December 31, 2011 balance of $163,709. The increase in inventories was primarily due to the slowdown in sales and purchases of raw materials. Total current liabilities at March 31, 2012 totaled $ 4,477,834, of which $1,220,436 or 27.26%, represented trade and operating payables. This represents a ratio of current assets to current liabilities of 0.15:1 at March 31, 2012.

At March 31, 2012, we had a net working capital deficiency of $ 3,792,401. Our need for cash during the three months ended March 31, 2012 was primarily funded through exercise of warrants and borrowings (including borrowings from related parties) totaling $1,261,927.

We have traditionally funded working capital needs through product sales, management of working capital components of our business, and by cash received from private offerings of our common stock, preferred stock, warrants to purchase shares of our common stock and convertible notes.

We believe that our needs for capital over the next 12 to 24 months could be minimized if we are able to increase our sales via the introduction of new products, support our inventory needs and promote our products in the marketplace. Since our existing operations are capable of absorbing growth without any significant operational expense, any increases in sales will allow us to lessen our needs for long-term capital. However, we intend to aggressively expand our distribution channel more rapidly than in the past and implement more aggressive advertising programs. These programs require further significant investments of capital. The amount and nature of how we would raise any necessary funds cannot be determined at this time. It is possible we may not be able to find capital on acceptable terms.

The following table presents future maturities of debt owed through the end of fiscal year 2014:

Year	Amount
2012	$	1,578,000
2013	$	464,338

Contractual obligations and commitments

The Company’s various equity financings are detailed under Item 5 – MARKET FOR REGISTRANT’S COMMON EQUITY, RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS AND ISSUER PURCHASES OF EQUITY SECURITIES – Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities. The Company’s various borrowings are set forth below.

On June 15, 2011, the Company entered into a Secured Factoring Loan with a principal amount of $426,680 with four lenders, the total amount received on the Secured Factoring Loans was $400,000 of which $125,000 was purchased by a then-director of the Company and $200,000 was purchased by a principal shareholder. These notes matured on August 20, 2011 and are secured by all of the Company assets, subject to subordinations of certain assets to present and future factoring facilities. On August 24, 2011 these notes were converted into the Secured Convertible Subordinated Notes described below.

On July 14, 2011, July 28, 2011 and July 29, 2011 we issued Original Issue Discount Notes to three lenders receiving amounts of $75,000 from a principal shareholder, $50,000 and $25,000 respectively from other investors. These notes matured on January 14, 2012 at $170,458 and are secured by all of the Company assets, subject to subordinations of certain assets to present and future factoring facilities, of which $85,227 was due to Lorraine DiPaolo, a principal shareholder. On August 24, 2011 these notes were converted into the recast notes as described below.

On August 24, 2011, we recast $606,381 (principal plus accrued interest) in existing secured loans with six parties (entered into between June and July 2011), one of whom was then a director of the Company, for $120,517, another of whom is an executive officer and director of the Company for $30,100 and another of whom is a principal shareholder for $298,227, in exchange for 10% Secured Convertible Subordinated Notes (“Secured Notes”) which Notes were coupled with common stock. Each Secured Note is collateralized by all of the Company’s assets and is convertible into common stock at a conversion price of $0.05 per share. Additionally, such lenders were granted an additional 5 shares of our common stock for each $1.00 of interest and principal due them. We determined that the conversion of the secured notes into the secured recast notes was more than the carrying value of the obligation on the date of the conversion and recorded a loss on extinguishment of debt of $144,392 for the year ended December 31, 2011.

Between September 13 and 16, 2011, we borrowed $250,000 from two investors, one of whom is a principal shareholder, for $125,000 and refinanced an existing unsecured loan with one officer in the amount of $30,100. We issued to these investors the same 10% Secured Convertible Subordinated Notes we had issued to the lenders reported in the above paragraph. Additionally, such investors received an additional 5 shares of our common stock for each $1.00 invested totaling 1,450,000 common shares (625,000 included in shares issuable). The shares were valued at $31,250 as discount debt and will be amortized over the term of notes.

On September 20, 2011 the Company entered into Secured Purchase Order Financing agreements with certain suppliers for additional trade credit to produce and ship approximately $750,000 in orders to Company customers. The agreements were secured by certain future sales and inventory provided by the suppliers. The agreement included repayment of $307,563 of existing accounts payable and $ 443,000 in additional trade credit. The Company further agreed to segregate all cash proceeds from specific sales to certain customers (the “Customers”) to enable the Company to pay the suppliers. The Company entered into an Escrow Agreement with the Suppliers and an escrow agent for the purpose of establishing a segregated account controlled by an independent escrow agent to disburse the cash proceeds from such Customer accounts directly to each Supplier based upon a predetermine percentage. In connection with this facility, the Company also received consent from Secured Note holders to consent to (a) the Company entering into an escrow agreement with the escrow agent and the Suppliers for the benefit of each Supplier, and (b) consent to the Company’s segregation of proceeds from Customer accounts receivable to the escrow account and waive each such Secured Note holder’s security interest in and lien on all cash proceeds in the escrow account so long as the escrow agreement and the escrow account remained in place. As of December 31, 2011 the Company’s accounts payable to those Suppliers was $460,490 of which $306,037 represented Purchase Order Financing. The escrow agent received aggregate proceeds of $444,526, all of which have been disbursed to the Suppliers.

On October 18, 2011, the Company borrowed $50,000 from two lenders in exchange for 10% Secured Convertible Subordinated Notes which Notes were coupled with common stock. One of the purchasers was a principal shareholder who subscribed for $25,000. Each Secured Note is collateralized by all of the Company’s assets and an assignment of the Company’s trademark with the US Patent and Trademark Office and is convertible into common stock at a conversion price of $0.05 per share. Additionally, such lenders were granted an additional 5 shares of our common stock for each $1.00 of interest and principal due them.

On November 1, 2011, the Company borrowed $50,000 from a then-director in exchange for 10% Secured Convertible Subordinated Note which Note was coupled with common stock. Each Secured Note is collateralized by all of the Company’s assets and an assignment of the Company's trademark with the US Patent and Trademark Office and is convertible into common stock at a conversion price of $0.05 per share. Additionally, such lenders were granted an additional 5 shares of our common stock for each $1.00 of interest and principal due them.

On November 14, 2011, we borrowed aggregate gross proceeds of $60,000 from two investors, one of whom was a principal shareholder ($30,000) in exchange for 10% Secured Convertible Subordinated Notes (“Secured Notes”) which Notes were coupled with common stock,. Each Secured Note is collateralized by all of the Company’s assets and an assignment of the Company’s trademark with the US Patent and Trademark Office and is convertible into common stock at a conversion price of $0.05 per share. Additionally, such lenders were granted an additional 5 shares of our common stock for each $1.00 of interest and principal due them.

On November 22, 2011 we entered into an investor relations maintenance agreement. In addition to the cash compensation of $50,000 (of which $25,000 was) paid, the party was granted 3,000,000 restricted shares of common stock and we assigned to the principal plus a warrant to purchase 5 million shares of common stock at a strike price of $0.25 per share.

On December 1, 2011, we borrowed $175,000 from one investor in exchange for 10% Secured Convertible Subordinated Notes (“Secured Notes”) which Notes were coupled with common stock. Each Secured Note is collateralized by all of the Company’s assets and an assignment of the Company’s trademark with the US Patent and Trademark Office and is convertible into common stock at a conversion price of $0.01 per share. Additionally, such lenders were granted an additional 5 shares of our common stock for each $1.00 of interest and principal due them. Additionally, for arranging this facility which will total $330,000 assignee of the Lender was granted a Revenue Participation Agreement. This agreement grants the lender a revenue participation of 2% of the Company’s annual net sales of the first $2 million and 3% of any net sales in excess of the first $2 million in annual net sales.

On December 14, 2011, the Company reached an agreement with a former employee to grant common stock and warrants to in exchange for satisfaction of deferred salary of $7,516 and an outstanding note to his wife in the amount of $4,800. We intend to grant 400,000 restricted shares of common to them.

On December 22, 2011, we borrowed $155,000 from one investor in exchange for 10% Secured Convertible Subordinated Note (“Secured Note”) which Note was coupled with common stock. Each Secured Note is collateralized by all of the Company’s assets and an assignment of the Company’s trademark with the US Patent and Trademark Office and is convertible into common stock at a conversion price of $0.01 per share. This loan triggered the Revenue Participation Agreement that was referenced in the discussion of the December 1, 2011 Secured Note.

On December 23rd, 2011 the Company received the required consent to:

● Amend the Certificate of Designation of the Corporation for the Series K Preferred Stock (the “Certificate of Designation”)

● to eliminate paragraph (f) of Section 9 of the Certificate of Designation, “Protective Provisions,” which limits the Company’s ability to enter into, create, incur, assume, guarantee or suffer to exist any indebtedness for borrowed money of any kind, other than “Permitted Indebtedness”

● Amend the Security Purchase Agreement for the Series K Preferred Stock (the “Security Purchase Agreement”)

i. To eliminate paragraph 8.2 “Subsequent Equity Sales,” in its entirety;

ii. To eliminate paragraph 8.3 “Participation in Future Financing,” in its entirety;

In consideration of same, the Company agreed:

● To reduce the conversion price of its Series K Preferred to 3 cents per share.

● To exchange every 5 Warrants (of the X, Y and Z Series) into 1 share of common stock.

Between February 15, 2012 and March 2, 2012, the Company received proceeds of $250,000 from four investors in exchange for 8% 18 month Unsecured Convertible Notes (“Unsecured Note”), which Notes were coupled with warrants. Each Unsecured Note is convertible thirteen months after their respective issuance dates into common stock at a conversion price equal to the greater of (i) the Variable Conversion Price of 50% of the Market Price and (ii) the Fixed Conversion Price of $0.01. The investors also received 25,000,000 5 year warrants at a strike price of $0.03 per share. In addition the investors received the right to invest in new notes on the same basis as provided.

We believe that our existing cash resources, combined with projected cash flows from operations will not be sufficient to execute our business plan and continue operations for the next twelve months. We continue to explore various longer term capital options which we believe will be necessary to provide for the growth of our business. Additionally, we are evaluating our strategic direction aimed at achieving profitability and positive cash flow. We intend to continue to issue debt or equity securities in order to raise additional capital. If we issue additional common stock or securities that could convert into our common stock, our current stockholders will be diluted and the trading price of our common stock may decrease. Additionally, we may not be successful in obtaining additional financing on acceptable terms, on a timely basis, or at all, in which case, we may be forced to make further cutbacks or ultimately cease operations.

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

We do not have off-balance sheet arrangements, financing, or other relationships with unconsolidated entities or other persons, also known as “variable interest entities”.

ITEM 3 – QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

As a Smaller Reporting Company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act and 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

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management evaluated, with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report on Form 10-Q. Based on this evaluation, our management concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures, including internal control over financial reporting, were not effective as of March 31, 2012 to ensure that information we are required to disclose in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act (i) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms, and (ii) is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management. Our disclosure controls and procedures include components of our internal control over financial reporting. In designing and evaluating our disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, but not absolute, assurance that misstatements due to error or fraud will not occur or that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, with our Company have been detected.

Our management identified control deficiencies during 2009 that continued to exist in the three months ended March 31, 2012 because we lacked adequate controls in place to properly evaluate and account for all the complex characteristics of the debt and equity transactions executed by our Company in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. In addition, management concluded that there were not adequate controls in place to properly evaluate and account for stock-based awards issued by our Company in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. These deficiencies are the result of the complexity of the individual debt and equity transactions entered into by our Company and the limited amount of personnel available to provide for the proper level of oversight needed in accounting for these transactions. Management has determined that these control deficiencies represent material weaknesses. In addition, we lacked sufficient staff to segregate accounting duties. Based on our review of our accounting controls and procedures, we believe this control deficiency resulted primarily because we have one person performing all accounting-related duties. As a result, we did not maintain adequate segregation of duties within our critical financial reporting applications. Management believes these are “material weaknesses.”

A material weakness is defined as a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies in internal control, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the entity’s financial statements will not be prevented, or detected and corrected on a timely basis. A significant deficiency is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control that is less severe than a material weakness, yet important enough to merit attention by those charged with governance.

In preparing our financial statements and in reviewing the effectiveness of the design and operation of our internal accounting controls and procedures and our disclosure controls and procedures for the three months ended March 31, 2012, we performed transaction reviews and control activities in connection with reconciling and compiling our consolidated financial records for the three months ended March 31, 2012. These reviews and procedures were undertaken in order to confirm that our financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2012 were prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, fairly presented and free of material errors.

Our management is in the process of actively addressing and remediating the material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting described above. We intend to continue to remediate material weaknesses and enhance our internal controls, but cannot guarantee that our efforts will result in remediation of our material weakness or that new issues will not be exposed in this process.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during our last fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1 – LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

On December 7, 2009, we received a demand notice for payment for $822,920 (see Footnote 7, Long Term Debt) from the estate of a former owner of Nutritional Specialties, Inc. As discussed in Note 14 “Subsequent Events” on April 9, 2012 the Company completed the sale its non-operating subsidiary Nutritional Specialties, Inc. (NSI) to Deep South Capital, LLC (DSCL). As part of a security purchase agreement, DSCL assumed this obligation and indemnified the Company.

On March 12, 2010, the Company was notified that it was named as a defendant in a lawsuit in the United States District Court, Eastern District of Texas, brought by Vitro Packaging de Mexico, SA de CV, the assignee of a former supplier. Vitro Packaging alleged the Company owed unpaid accounts payable and sought approximately $345,000. The Company entered into a Side Compromise Settlement Agreement, Indemnity and Release with Vitro Packaging De Mexico, S.A. DE C.V. with Vitro agreed not to execute on an Agreed Final Judgment for $245,275 until after May 16, 2011, which the Company has not paid and is recorded as a current liability. On August 17, 2011, the judgment was recorded in the State of New Jersey. In October 2012, Management negotiated an agreement with Vitro whereby the Company would pay $125,000 in three installments to settle all claims relating to the litigation. To date, no payments have been made under the agreement, however, Vitro and Company continue to discuss a beginning date for the installment payments.

In December 2010, the Company’s Chief Operating Officer, William Sipper, resigned following an alleged incident involving a prospective employee of the Company. The Company insurance carrier settled this matter in March 2012.

On July 11, 2011, we were served with a complaint from Bett-A-Way Traffic Systems, Inc. demanding payment of $90,928 in a accounts payable collection matter.. The parties settled this matter on April 15, 2012 for a combination of stock and cash. The stock component has been paid and the cash component remains open. At February 2012, the parties continue to discuss payment of the cash component.

On February 4, 2012, we were served with a complaint by Hartford Meir, Inc demanding payment of $160,009 in a collection matter regarding a trade receivable conveyed to them by Mode Transportation (with whom the Company originally incurred the debt). We have accrued for this payment of $136,920 as of December 31, 2011 as part of accounts payable.

ITEM 2 – UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS

On January 28, 2010, we agreed with certain vendors and converted their trade payable in the amount of $85,000 into 170,000 shares of our common stock.

On February 22, 2010, we closed a private placement of common stock and warrants with certain accredited investors. Pursuant to the private placement, we sold an aggregate of 1,988,889 (1,222,219 shares was issued in 2009) shares of our common stock, plus warrants to purchase 1,057,727 (649,999 warrants was issued in 2009) shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $0.55 per share, subject to adjustment. Gross proceeds from the private placement were approximately $895,000 ($550,000 was received in 2009).

In February 2010, we issued a side letter to investors in the private placements which had closed in December 2009 and February 2010 effectively amending the terms of the private placements to grant a price protection clause through April 30, 2010. The price protection clause required us to issue additional common stock and warrants to these investors, based upon a formula contained in the side letter, in the event that common stock was issued during the price protection period at an effective price less than the purchase price paid by such investors, subject to certain exceptions.

The commencement of the private placement in April 6, 2010 triggered the price protection clause contained in the side letter which we issued to certain investors on February 16, 2010. Accordingly, we issued such investors 568,253 shares of common stock and warrants to purchase 1,499,410 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $0.45 per share. The warrants are fully vested, with a five year term and provide their holders with certain anti-dilution and cashless exercise provisions.

On February 22, 2010, we agreed to issue for services rendered (fair value of $1,106,225), 3,000,000 shares of common stock, which consist of 2,557,500 shares issued on February 24, 2010 and the remaining 422,500 shares were to be issued on May 22, 2010. Prior to issuance of the remaining shares on May 22, 2010 the contract was rescinded.

In January and February 2010, we agreed with certain vendors to convert their trade payables in the amount of $78,781 into 270,923 shares of our common stock. Also on February 24, 2010, we agreed to issue for services rendered (fair value of $54,830), a warrant for 150,000 shares of our common stock with a exercise price of $0.49 per share and an expiration date of March 2015.

On April 6, 2010, we commenced a private placement of common stock and warrants with certain accredited investors. Pursuant to the private placement, we agreed to issue an aggregate of 1,821,414 shares of common stock and warrants to purchase 1,821,414 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $0.45 per share for net proceeds of $637,500. The warrants issued in connection with the private placement are fully vested, have a five year term and provide their holders with certain anti-dilution and cashless exercise provisions.

On May 28, 2010, we issued a side letter to investors in the private placement which commenced in April 2010 which effectively amended the terms of the private placement to contain a price protection clause through August 31, 2010. The price protection clause requires us to issue additional common stock to these investors, based upon a formula contained in the side letter, in the event that common stock is issued during the price protection period at an effective price less than the purchase price paid by such investors, subject to certain exceptions.

In August 2010, we issued a side letter to investors in the private placement which commenced on April 6, 2010 which effectively amended the terms of the private placement to extend the price protection clause provided to such investors in a side letter issued to them in May 2010 through September 25, 2010. The price protection clause required us to issue additional common stock to these investors, based upon a formula contained in the side letter, in the event that common stock or common stock equivalents were issued during the price protection period at an effective price less than the purchase price paid by such investors, subject to certain exceptions.

The commencement of the October 8, 2010 promissory note issuance (see below) triggered the price protection clause contained in the side letter which we issued to certain investors on August 26, 2010. Accordingly we issued such investors 728,586 shares of common stock.

In April 2010, the holders of $212,500 of notes agreed to convert the outstanding note balance into 531,250 shares of common stock in exchange for us agreeing to pay all unpaid interest which had accrued on the notes.

In May 2010, we issued 360,000 shares of common stock to the holders of $1,500,000 of notes in exchange for extending the maturity date to June 2010. In June 2010, we issued 4,500,000 shares of common stock to the same holders in exchange for further extending the maturity date to September 2010. In August 2010, the holders agreed to extend the term of these notes to December 24, 2010. In October 2010, the holders agreed to extend the maturity date to January 12, 2011. On January 21, 2011 theses notes were converted into 60 shares of our Preferred Series K shares and Series Y warrants to purchase 5,000,000 shares of common stock at a strike price of $0.15.

In September 2010, we consummated a private placement of promissory notes with a face value of $1,782,955 and detachable warrants to purchase 2,139,546 shares of common stock to accredited investors, excluding related parties which are described later in Note 6, pursuant to a private placement memorandum. The promissory notes were issued at an original issuance discount of $213,955, did not have a stated interest rate and matured on the three month anniversary of their issuance date in December 2010 or January 2011. In addition, the notes are automatically convertible upon the consummation of a qualified offering, as defined, into the type of securities issued in such offering at a conversion price equivalent to the price of the securities sold. The warrants are fully vested and provide its holder with the right to purchase the specified number of shares of common stock at an exercise price of $0.25 per share during its five year term. The warrants also provide its holders with certain anti-dilution and cashless exercise provisions. The terms of the offering also provide investors with a reset feature which gives them the right, for as long as the notes are outstanding, to exchange the promissory notes for securities issued in a subsequent offering in the event that the Company enters into any subsequent transaction other than the qualified offering, as defined, on terms more favorable than those governing the current offering.

As a result of the private placement of promissory notes and warrants we issued to the placement agent 266,760 warrants that are fully vested and provide its holder with the right to purchase the specified number of shares of common stock at an exercise price of $0.25 per share during its five year term. The warrants also provide its holder with certain anti-dilution and cashless exercise provisions.

On January 12, 2011 our note holders agreed to extend the maturity date of such notes to January 17, 2011.

On January 14, 2011 the Company received consent from all its September OID note holders to:

Pursuant to a Registration Rights Agreement described below, investors also received the right to demand that the Company file one or more registration statements covering the securities into which the Series K Preferred Stock is convertible and as to which the Warrants are exercisable as further described below. The offering was made under Rule 506 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and was made exclusively to “accredited investors”.
