NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1.

DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS, ORGANIZATION AND GOING CONCERN

Global Energy Holdings Group, Inc. (the “Company”) is a diversified renewable energy company based in Atlanta, Georgia. The Company’s principal operating division is Global Energy Systems, Inc. (“GES”)~~, which is developing renewable energy projects, including biomass projects, such as biomass gasification, and landfill-gas-to-energy projects~~.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. However, the Company has reported net losses of $13.3 million and $31.3 million and negative cash flows from operations of $10.3 million and $9.7 million for the years ended December 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively. For the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2009, the Company has reported a net loss of $24.3 million and negative cash flows from operations of $1.2.1 million. The Company will need substantial additional cash to pursue its plans and projects, and given the current economic and financial climate, the Company can give no assurance that it will be able to raise the additional capital it needs on commercially acceptable terms, or at all. The Company will need to reduce costs and raise additional financing to fund operations and long term business objectives. The Company’s continued existence is dependent upon several factors, including obtaining additional debt or equity financing, and developing and completing renewable energy projects. In the event Management is ~~investigating~~unsuccessful ~~various~~in these efforts, the Company is likely to seek ~~sources~~relief under the U.S. Bankruptcy Code. This relief may include (i) seeking bankruptcy court approval for the sale of ~~debt~~most or ~~equity~~substantially ~~financing~~all ~~and~~of our isassets ~~developing~~pursuant ~~marketing~~to ~~and~~section ~~production plans~~363(b) ~~for~~of ~~its~~the ~~products~~U. ~~The~~S. ~~matters~~Bankruptcy ~~discussed~~Code; ~~above~~(ii) pursuing a plan of reorganization; or (iii) seeking another form of bankruptcy relief, all ~~however~~of which involve uncertainties, ~~raise~~potential delays and litigation ~~substantial~~risks. As a result of the preceding factors, there is a substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company’s consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

The Company’s properties and investments currently include: ~~(1) a former pharmaceutical plant in Augusta, Georgia and a former fiberboard manufacturing facility in Spring Hope, North Carolina, both of which~~ the ~~Company is seeking to~~ sell; (2) an ethanol plant in Blairstown, Iowa that produced ethanol from corn until May 1, 2008, when the Company ceased ethanol production, and which the Company is currently trying to sell; (3) the rights to purchase landfill gas produced at the Hickory Ridge landfill in Conley, Georgia; and (4) minority investments in other renewable energy or clean tech businesses. The Company’s only source of operating revenue had been from its sales of ethanol and related products at its Blairstown corn-based ethanol plant, which due to the high prices for corn and natural gas, ceased production of ethanol on May 1, 2008 to reduce operating losses.following:

a former pharmaceutical plant in Augusta, Georgia and a former fiberboard manufacturing facility in Spring Hope, North Carolina, both of which the Company is seeking to sell;

the rights to purchase landfill gas produced at the Hickory Ridge landfill in Conley, Georgia; and

minority investments in other renewable energy or clean tech businesses.

The Company’s only source of operating revenue had been from its sales of ethanol and related products at its Blairstown corn-based ethanol plant, which due to the high prices for corn and natural gas, ceased production of ethanol on May 1, 2008 to reduce operating losses. On August 31, 2009 the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, Xethanol BioFuels, LLC, entered into an agreement for the sale of this facility to Fiberight, LLC for a purchase price of $1.65 million, and the sale was completed on November 17, 2009.

NOTE 2.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements and related footnotes should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related footnotes contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008 filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on April 15, 2009.

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the rules and regulations of the SEC related to interim statements. The financial information contained herein is unaudited; however, in the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of such financial information have been included. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. The results of operations for the three and ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~ September 30, 2009 and 2008 are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the full year. The balance sheet presented as of December 31, 2008 is derived from audited financial statements.

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses and related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities. Significant estimates include the valuation of shares and options issued for services or in connection with acquisitions and the valuation of investments, fixed assets and intangibles, their estimated useful lives and accruals for litigation and other contingencies. The Company evaluates its estimates on an ongoing basis. Actual results could differ from those estimates in the near term under different assumptions or conditions.

Subsequent Events

The Company evaluated subsequent events through the time of filing this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q on November 23, 2009. The following events occurred subsequent to the balance sheet date but prior to the filing of this report that could have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

Completion of Sale of the Blairstown, Iowa Ethanol Facility. On August 31, 2009, Xethanol BioFuels, LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, entered into an agreement for the sale of the Company’s Blairstown, Iowa ethanol facility to Fiberight, LLC for a purchase price of $1.65 million. Fiberight paid to the Company an earnest money deposit of $165,000. The parties expected the transaction to close on or before September 30, 2009, but Fiberight extended the closing date to November 15, 2009 with an additional deposit of $165,000. The sale of the Blairstown, Iowa facility to Fiberight, LLC was completed on November 17, 2009. Net proceeds to the Company on November 17, 2009 (exclusive of the deposit amounts and other disbursements and costs relating to the transaction) were $950,000.

Settlement of Legal Dispute. The Company recently reached settlement of a legal dispute for $250,000 in favor of the Company. After legal fees, the Company expects to receive $135,000 from this settlement on or about November 25, 2009, at which time a gain will be recognized equal to the cash proceeds received.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses and related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities. Significant estimates include the valuation of shares and options issued for services or in connection with acquisitions, the valuation of investments, fixed assets and intangibles, write-downs related to impairments, estimated useful lives of long-lived assets and accruals for litigation and other contingencies. The Company evaluates its estimates on an ongoing basis. Actual results could differ from those estimates in the near term under different assumptions or conditions.

Classifications and Adjustments

During the first quarter of 2009, the Company corrected the presentation of stockholders’ equity as of December 31, 2008. The correction to stockholders’ equity related to restricted common stock which was issued in October 2008 and initially classified as stock options in our Form 10-K filed on April 15, 2009. While preparing our first quarter 2009 Form 10-Q, we discovered this error which did not impact any stockholders’ equity balances, but increased our common stock outstanding. The discovery of the error increased common stock outstanding as of December 31, 2008 from 28,609,103 to 29,070,103, an increase of 461,000 shares. The common stock underlying the restricted stock grant is considered legally issued but is not included in the calculation of basic earnings per share as the stock has not vested. Since this correction had no effect to the balance of stockholders’ equity or basic earnings per share as of and for the period ending December 31, 2008, the Company does not consider this correction material to any previously reported consolidated financial statements.

Certain other immaterial prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.

The Company invests its excess cash in money market funds and in highly liquid debt instruments of the U.S. government and its agencies. All highly liquid investments with stated maturities of three months or less from date of purchase are classified as cash equivalents; all investments with stated maturities of greater than three months are classified as marketable securities.

Approximately $3,153,000 of the Company’s cash as of December 31, 2008 was held in the Reserve U.S. Government Fund (a money market fund). In September 2008, redemptions were temporarily suspended from the reserve fund so that an orderly liquidation could be effected for the protection of the reserve fund’s investors. Accordingly, the Company reclassified the fair value of its $3,153,000 held in this fund from cash and cash equivalents to short-term marketable securities on the consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2008 because the investment in the reserve fund did not then meet the definition of cash equivalent. During the three months ended March 31, 2009, the Company received all of its current holdings in the reserve fund at no loss.

Restricted Investments

The Company has an investment of $220,000 with Wells Fargo Bank related to the alcohol producers license administered by the Bureau of Alcohol Tobacco and Firearms. This investment is restricted through March 2010 and is recorded within prepaid expenses and other current assets on the balance sheets.

Loss per Common Share

Loss per share (“EPS”) is computed based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding and excludes any potential dilution. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock or resulted in the issuance of common stock, which would then share in the earnings of the Company. The shares issuable upon the exercise of stock options and warrants are excluded from the calculation of net loss per share, as their effect would be antidilutive.

During the periods presented, the Company had securities outstanding that could potentially dilute basic earnings per share in the future, but were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share, as their effect would have been anti-dilutive. The anti-dilutive securities are as follows (in thousands):9

Concentration of Credit Risk

Cash that is deposited with major financial institutions or invested in money market funds is not insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation.

Costs Associated with Issuance of Stock

Investment banking fees and related costs associated with the sale of stock are charged to stockholders’ equity.

Stock Issued for Non-Cash Consideration

Shares of common stock issued for services, and in connection with acquisitions, have been valued at the estimated fair value of the shares at the time they were issued.

Investments

The Company accounts for its investments in ~~accordance~~variable ~~with~~interest ~~FASB~~entities ~~Interpretation~~in ~~46R,~~accordance ~~Consolidation~~with ofthe ~~Variable~~Financial ~~Interest Entities, an Interpretation of~~ Accounting ~~Research~~ ~~Bulletin~~Standards ~~No.~~Board 51 (“~~FIN 46R~~FASB”) accounting standards. A variable interest entity (“VIE”) is a corporation, partnership, trust, or any other legal structure used for business purposes where equity investors do not provide sufficient financial resources for the entity to support its activities ~~as described in FIN 46R~~. ~~FIN~~The ~~46R~~FASB ~~requires~~accounting standards require a VIE to be consolidated by a company if that company is the primary beneficiary of the VIE. The primary beneficiary of a VIE is an entity that is subject to a majority of the risk of loss from the VIE’s activities, or entitled to receive a majority of the entity’s residual returns, or both.

~~For~~The Company's investments ~~that~~consist of both equity method and cost method investments. Investments are ~~not~~accounted ~~required~~for under the equity method if the Company has the ability to beexercise ~~consolidated~~significant influence over operating and financial policies, generally representing an ownership interest between 20% and 50%, and under the cost ~~Company~~method ~~follows~~if this significant influence does not exist. The cost method investments are carried at cost on the consolidated balance sheets and dividend ~~guidance~~income ~~provided~~is byrecognized ~~APB~~when 18dividends “are declared. The ~~Equity~~equity ~~Method~~method ofinvestments are ~~Accounting~~carried at an amount adjusted each year for ~~Investments~~the inappropriate percentage of ~~Common~~the ~~Stock~~income/loss on the investment.” The Company periodically reviews all investments for impairment and writes investments down as necessary.

Costs of Start-up Activities

Start-up activities are defined broadly in ~~Statement~~FASB ~~of Position 98-5~~guidance, ~~Reporting on the Costs of Start-Up Activities ,~~ as those one-time activities related to opening a new facility, introducing a new product or service, conducting business in a new territory, conducting business with a new class of customer or beneficiary, initiating a new process in an existing facility, or commencing some new operation or activities related to organizing a new entity. The Company’s start-up activities consist primarily of costs associated with new or potential sites for renewable energy projects, including biomass gasification and landfill gas-to-energy projects. All the costs associated with a potential site are expensed, until the site is considered viable by management, at which time costs would be considered for capitalization based on authoritative accounting literature. These costs are included in selling, general, and administrative expenses in the consolidated statement of operations.

Property, Plant and Equipment

Property, plant and equipment are recorded at cost. Major additions are capitalized and depreciated over their estimated useful lives. Repairs and maintenance costs are expensed as incurred. Depreciation is computed using straight-line and accelerated methods over the estimated useful lives of the assets. The range of useful lives for each category of fixed assets is as follows: buildings and land improvements – 20 years, process equipment – 10 years, lab equipment – 7 years, office equipment – 5 years, and computers – 3 years.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

The Company evaluates ~~impairment of long-lived assets in accordance with SFAS No. 144, Accounting for~~ the ~~Impairment~~ ~~or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets. The Company assesses the~~ impairment of long-lived assets, including property and equipment and purchased intangibles subject to amortization, whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be be recoverable. The asset impairment review assesses the fair value of of the assets based on the future cash flows the assets are expected to generate. An impairment loss is recognized when estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to result from the use of the asset plus net proceeds expected from the disposition of the asset (if any) are less than the related asset’s carrying amount. Impairment losses are measured as the amount by which the carrying amounts of the assets exceed their fair values. Property held for sale is recorded at the lower of its carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell. Estimates of future cash flows are judgments based on management’s experience and knowledge of the Company’s operations and the industries in which the Company operates. These estimates can be significantly affected by future changes in market conditions and the economic environment. See Note 3, Note 5, Note 6 and Note 8 for further discussion.

Intangible Assets-Landfill Gas Purchase Rights

The Company ~~accounts~~evaluates ~~for~~the impairment of intangible assets ~~with~~whenever ~~finite~~events ~~lives~~or changes in ~~accordance~~circumstances ~~with~~indicate ~~SFAS No.~~that ~~142,~~the ~~Goodwill~~carrying ~~and~~amount ~~Other Intangible~~of ~~Assets, which requires~~ an ~~annual~~asset ~~review~~may ~~for~~not ~~impairment, or~~be ~~more frequently if impairment indicators arise~~recoverable.

The Company’s intangible assets at ~~June~~September 30, 2009 consist of landfill gas ~~purchase~~ purchase rights at the Hickory Ridge landfill in Conley (DeKalb County), Georgia (the “Hickory Ridge Landfill”) acquired during the three months ended March 31, 2009 for $3,350,000, of which $400,000 was paid in 2008. The Company’s board of directors has decided to seek a buyer or significant equity partner for the landfill gas rights at the Hickory Ridge Landfill. The Company is currently in negotiations with potential buyers and equity partners for the landfill gas rights with respect to its Hickory Ridge Landfill project. The Company is classifying the landfill gas rights as held for sale as the Company is no longer planning to self-develop the gas rights.

The Company purchased the rights to purchase the landfill gas at the Zemel Road landfill in Port Charlotte, Florida (the “Zemel Road Landfill”) during the three months ended March 31, 2009. The Company agreed to pay an aggregate ~~purchase~~ purchase price of $350,000 to acquire the landfill gas purchase rights at the Zemel Road Landfill, with $100,000 already paid by the Company, and the remaining $250,000 was payable by the Company when certain milestones with respect to the Zemel Road Landfill gas project ~~are~~were met. The Zemel Road Landfill gas purchase rights were held by the Company’s indirect wholly-owned subsidiary, GES-Port Charlotte, LLC. On June 18, 2009, the Company sold all of its equity interests in GES-Port Charlotte, LLC, together with the Zemel Road Landfill gas purchase rights, to MAS Energy LFG 1, LLC (“MAS”) for $250,000. in cash plus the assumption of the $250,000 in milestone payables. The Company recorded a $150,000 gain on the sale and has no further obligations on the project.

Concurrently with the sale, the Company and MAS entered into a letter agreement whereby MAS and the Company have agreed to negotiate and execute a development agreement under which the Company, for a fee, will secure the necessary permits and contracts for the development of the project and oversee the development of the project for MAS.

Revenue Recognition

~~The~~Revenue ~~Company~~is ~~follows~~recognized awhen ~~policy~~persuasive evidence of ~~recognizing~~an ~~sales~~arrangement ~~revenue~~exists, atdelivery ~~the~~of products ~~time~~or services has occurred, the ~~product~~price is fixed and determinable, and ~~shipped~~collectibility is reasonably assured. The Company considers these elements to ~~its~~be met ~~customers~~once a signed purchase order contract is accepted by both parties and the delivery of products or services have been completed in accordance with the terms of the agreement.

Research and Development

Research and development costs are expensed as incurred. Research and development costs were $0 and $~~170~~65,000 for the ~~six~~three months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively, and $0 and $235,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively. The research and development costs for the ~~six months~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2008 consisted of amortization expense relating to a ~~research~~ research agreement acquired in connection with the Company’s acquisition of ~~Advanced~~ Advanced Biomass Gasification Technologies, Inc. in 2006.

Income Taxes

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are computed based on the difference between the book and income tax bases of assets and liabilities using the enacted marginal tax rate. Deferred income tax expenses or credits are based on changes in the assets and liabilities from period to period. These differences arise primarily from the Company’s net operating losses. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The carrying amount of cash and cash equivalents, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximate fair value because of the short-term nature of these instruments.

Segment Reporting

The Company has operated as a single segment. The Company’s only source of revenue had been from its sales of ethanol and related products at its Blairstown corn-based ethanol plant, which ceased ethanol production as of May 1, 2008.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

In ~~March~~ April 2008, the FASB issued ~~SFAS~~new ~~No.~~requirements ~~161,~~regarding ~~Disclosures~~the ~~about~~determination ~~Derivative~~of the ~~Instruments~~useful ~~and Hedging~~lives ~~Activities~~of ~~(“SFAS~~intangible ~~161”)~~assets. ~~The~~ ~~new~~In ~~standard~~developing isassumptions ~~intended~~about torenewal ~~improve~~or ~~financial~~extension ~~reporting~~options ~~about~~used ~~derivative~~to ~~instruments~~determine ~~and~~the ~~hedging~~useful ~~activities by~~life ~~requiring~~of ~~enhanced~~an ~~disclosures~~intangible toasset, an ~~enable~~entity ~~investors~~needs to ~~better~~consider ~~understand~~its ~~their effects~~own onhistorical anexperience adjusted for entity’s-specific ~~financial~~factors. ~~position,~~In ~~results~~the absence of ~~operations~~that ~~and~~experience, ~~cash~~an entity shall ~~flows.

In ~~May~~March 2008, the FASB issued ~~SFAS~~guidance ~~No.~~that ~~162,~~requires ~~The~~enhanced ~~Hierarchy~~disclosures about an entity’s derivative and hedging activities and thereby improves the transparency of ~~Generally~~financial ~~Accepted~~reporting. This guidance requires that objectives for ~~Accounting~~using ~~Principles~~derivative ~~(“SFAS~~instruments ~~162”)~~be disclosed in terms of underlying risk and accounting designation. ~~SFAS~~ ~~162~~This ~~identifies~~disclosure better conveys the ~~sources~~purpose of derivative use in terms of ~~accounting~~the ~~principles~~risks ~~and~~that the ~~framework~~entity ~~for~~is ~~selecting~~intending to manage. Disclosing information about credit-risk-related contingent features provides information on the ~~principles~~potential ~~used~~effect inon an entity’s liquidity from using derivatives. The guidance requires cross-referencing within the ~~preparation~~footnotes, which should help users of financial statements ~~that~~locate ~~are~~important ~~presented~~information inabout ~~conformity with~~derivative ~~GAAP~~instruments. ~~SFAS~~ ~~162~~Requiring ~~became~~enhanced ~~effective~~disclosures enables investors to better understand their effects on ~~November~~an 15entity’s financial position, ~~2008~~results of operations and cash flows. The adoption of ~~SFAS~~this ~~162~~guidance did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

11In December 2007, the FASB issued new guidance on noncontrolling interests (previously referred to as minority interest) in consolidated financial statements. This guidance requires that the noncontrolling interest in the equity of a subsidiary be accounted for and reported as equity, not as a liability or other item outside of permanent equity; provides revised guidance on the treatment of net income and losses attributable to the noncontrolling interest and changes in ownership interests in a subsidiary; and requires additional disclosures that identify and distinguish between the interests of the controlling and noncontrolling owners. The adoption of the new guidance did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In June 2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 168, “The FASB Accounting Standards Codification™ and the Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles − a replacement of FASB Statement No. 162” (“SFAS 168”). The FASB has stated that the Codification will become the source of authoritative U.S. GAAP recognized by the FASB to be applied by nongovernmental entities. Once the Codification is in effect, all of its content will carry the same level of authority, effectively superseding SFAS No. 162, “The Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles.” In other words, the GAAP hierarchy will be modified to include only two levels of GAAP: authoritative and nonauthoritative. SFAS 168 is effective for financial statements issued for interim and annual periods ending after September 15, 2009. SFAS 168 will have no impact on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

Also in June 2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 167, “Amendments to FASB Interpretation No. 46(R)” (“SFAS 167”). The objective of SFAS 167 is to amend certain requirements of FASB Interpretation No. 46 (revised December 2003), “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities,” (Section 810-10 of the Codification) to improve financial reporting by enterprises involved with variable interest entities and to provide more relevant and reliable information to users of financial statements. SFAS 167 is effective as of the beginning of the first annual reporting period that begins after November 15, 2009, for interim periods within that first annual reporting period, and for interim and annual reporting periods thereafter. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact of SFAS 167, but does not expect it to have a material impact on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

In May 2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 165, “Subsequent Events” (“SFAS 165”) (Section 855-10 of the Codification). SFAS 165 is intended to establish general standards of accounting for and disclosure of events that occur after the balance sheet date, but before financial statements are issued or are available to be issued. SFAS 165 is effective for interim and annual periods ending after June 15, 2009. The Company adopted the new disclosure requirement beginning with the June 30, 2009 Consolidated Financial Statements, with no impact on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

~~NOTE~~In 3December 2007, the FASB issued guidance on business combinations that broadens the guidance of previously issued statements, extending its applicability to all transactions and other events in which one entity obtains control over one or more other businesses. ~~PROPERTY~~ It broadens the fair value measurement and ~~AND~~recognition ~~EQUIPMENT~~of assets acquired, liabilities assumed, and interests transferred as a result of business combinations; and stipulates that acquisition related costs be expensed rather than included as part of the basis of the acquisition. This guidance expands required disclosures to improve the ability to evaluate the nature and financial effects of business combinations. This guidance is effective for all business combinations entered into by the Company on or after January 1, 2009. This standard could materially impact the Company’s future financial results to the extent that the Company makes significant acquisitions, as related acquisition costs will be expensed as incurred compared to the Company’s previous practice of capitalizing those costs and amortizing them over the estimated useful life of the assets acquired.

In September 2006, the FASB issued guidance on fair value, which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. This guidance emphasizes that fair value is a market-based measurement, not an entity-specific measurement. Therefore, a fair value measurement should be determined based on the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. This guidance became effective for our financial assets and liabilities on January 1, 2008. The FASB initially deferred the implementation of provisions relating to certain nonfinancial assets and liabilities, which we were required to adopt on January 1, 2009. The adoption of this fair value guidance did not materially affect how the Company determines fair value.

IMPAIRMENTS

Site in Spring Hope, North Carolina

On November 7, 2006, the Company purchased all of the fixed assets of a former fiberboard manufacturing facility in Spring Hope, North Carolina from Carolina Fiberboard Corporation LLC. The assets include 212 acres of land, manufacturing and office space, and machinery and equipment. The Company has determined that the Spring Hope facility does not fit within its long-term corporate strategy, and on March 20, 2008, the Company’s board of directors authorized the Company’s management to pursue the sale of the facility, which it is doing. Before the Company sells the property (or as a term of its sale), the Company expects that it will have to resolve certain liens on the property filed by companies that performed, or have claimed to have performed, environmental remediation and demolition work on the property. The Company accrued $500,000 to settle claims and $450,000 for environmental clean-up at December 31, 2008. During 2009, the Company completed an environmental study and the contaminated soils at the site were remediated. The asbestos within the building has also been contained as long as there is no further disturbance of the structures. During the nine months ended September 30, 2009 the Company adjusted the estimates to $350,000 for environmental clean-up based on work performed during the Company’s environmental remediation and $25,000 to settle claims through established agreements. These adjustments were recorded in general and administrative expenses in the consolidated income statements. The Company can offer no assurance regarding how long it will take to sell the facility or the price the Company might receive. The carrying value of this property at September 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008 is $700,000 and $856,000, respectively, after the recognition of an impairment charge of $156,000 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009 and is classified as property previously held for development. The Company recognized the impairment charge after determining that impairment indicators were present based upon continued volatility in the real estate market and the low volume of similar real estate transactions in Spring Hope, North Carolina. The fair value used to determine the impairment was based upon prices for similar properties sold in the area and also considered the condition of the related fixed assets.

Site in Augusta, Georgia

The Company owns a former pharmaceutical manufacturing complex located in Augusta, Georgia. The Company has determined that the Augusta facility does not fit within its long-term corporate strategy, and on March 20, 2008, the Company’s board of directors authorized the Company’s management to pursue the sale of the facility, which it is currently doing. The Company can offer no assurance regarding how long it will take to sell the facility or the price the Company might receive. The carrying value of this property at September 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008 was $3.4 million and $3.5 million, respectively, after an impairment charge of $100,000 in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009 and was classified as property held for sale. The Company recognized the impairment charge after determining that impairment indicators were present based upon continued volatility in the real estate market and the low volume of similar real estate transactions in Augusta, Georgia. The fair value used to determine the impairment was based upon prices for similar properties sold in the area and also considered the condition of the related fixed assets.

Subsequent to this acquisition, the Company’s board of directors has decided to seek a buyer or significant equity partner for the landfill gas purchase rights at the Hickory Ridge Landfill. The Company is currently in negotiations with potential buyers and equity partners for the Hickory Ridge Landfill gas purchase rights. The Company paid an aggregate purchase price of $3,350,000 to acquire the Hickory Ridge Landfill gas purchase rights.

NOTE 10.

INCENTIVE COMPENSATION PLAN

The Company’s 2005 Incentive Compensation Plan (the “Plan”) provides for grants of stock options, stock appreciation rights, or SARs, restricted or deferred stock, other stock-related awards and performance awards that may be settled in cash, stock or other property. On February 12, 2008, at the Company’s annual meeting, the Company’s stockholders approved an amendment to the Plan to increase the number of shares of common stock available for issuance under the Plan from 4,000,000 to 6,500,000, which covered options that were previously granted under the Plan, subject to stockholder approval. Persons eligible to receive awards under the Plan are the officers, directors, employees and consultants to the Company and its subsidiaries.

On January 30, 2009, the compensation committee granted to directors, options to purchase 345,000 shares of common stock under the Plan at a purchase price per share equal to the closing price of the common stock on the NYSE Amex exchange on the date of grant (which was $0.25 per share). Using a Black-Scholes option pricing model, the fair value of these options on the date of grant was $56,000 using a closing price of the common stock on the date of grant, or $0.25 per share, and is being amortized as compensation expense over the estimated vesting period of the options. The options have a term of ten years and vest in two equal installments: 50% of the shares vested on March 31, 2009 and the remaining 50% of the shares vested on June 16, 2009. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009, total compensation expense related to options and restricted common stock awarded under the Plan was $8,000 and $96,000, respectively.

As of September 30, 2009 and 2008, options to purchase 5,358,000 and 5,320,000 shares of common stock were outstanding under the Plan, respectively. As of September 30, 2009, 629,070 shares of common stock were outstanding under the Plan, and a total of 512,930 shares were available for future awards under the Plan.

The weighted average fair value of stock options is estimated at the grant date using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following weighted average assumptions:

JOINT VENTURE AND ACQUISITIONS

Landfill Gas Sale and Purchase Agreement. On February 2, 2009, the Company acquired the right to purchase from Republic all of the landfill gas generated at Republic’s Hickory Ridge Landfill through December 31, 2029 for $3,350,000, of which $400,000 was paid in 2008. Subsequent to this acquisition, the Company’s board of directors has decided to seek a buyer or significant equity partner for the landfill gas purchase rights at the Hickory Ridge Landfill. The Company is currently in negotiations with potential buyers and equity partners for the Hickory Ridge Landfill gas purchase rights.

If the Company proceeds as originally intended and acquires or constructs a processing facility at the Hickory Ridge Landfill, once the Company’s processing facility commences commercial operation, the Company will pay Republic for landfill gas received from the Hickory Ridge Landfill at the processing facility a percentage royalty on the sum of the revenue that the Company collects from the sale of gas from the processing facility plus the value of certain environmental allowances, credits and offsets attributable to the Company’s processing facility’s displacement of conventional energy generation. If the Company is unsuccessful in obtaining financing to complete this project, it could lose its rights under the Hickory Ridge Agreement.

North American Natural Resources-Southeast, LLC Agreement. On January 20, 2009, GES-Port Charlotte, LLC, then an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, entered into the Port Charlotte Project Assignment Agreement with NANR. Under the Port Charlotte Project Assignment Agreement, the Company acquired (a) NANR’s rights to purchase from Charlotte County, Florida all the landfill gas generated by or at its Zemel Road Landfill and (b) the exclusive right to construct and operate a landfill gas-to-energy project at the Zemel Road Landfill.

NANR transferred and assigned to the Company all of its rights related to the Zemel Road Landfill gas project, which it had previously acquired from Charlotte County in July 2008, pursuant to an Agreement between Charlotte County and North American Natural Resources-Southeast for Landfill Gas Purchase and a Site Lease Agreement (the “assigned contracts”). The Company, Charlotte County and NANR subsequently approved the assignment and executed a novation agreement substituting GES-Port Charlotte for NANR as the party to each of the assigned contracts.

On June 18, 2009, the Company completed the sale of all of its equity interests in GES-Port Charlotte, LLC, including its Zemel Road Landfill gas purchase rights, to MAS. The Company recorded a gain on sale of intangible assets of $150,000. Under the terms of the purchase agreement, the Company received $250,000 in cash and MAS assumed certain liabilities of the Company. The only asset included in the sale was the Company’s right to the landfill gas at the Zemel Road Landfill.

Concurrently with the sale of GES-Port Charlotte, LLC, the Company and MAS entered into a letter agreement whereby MAS and the Company have agreed to negotiate and execute a development agreement under which the Company, for a fee, will secure the necessary permits and contracts for the development of the Zemel Road Landfill gas project and oversee the development of the project for MAS.

Sale of Southeast Biofuels Interest. On January 19, 2009, the Company entered into an agreement with Renewable Spirits, LLC to exchange the Company’s 78% interest in Southeast Biofuels, LLC in return for cancellation of the remaining balance on the note the Company issued to Renewable Spirits in connection with the 2006 acquisition of Renewable Spirits’ assets. The remaining balance on the note at the time of the 2008 agreement was $279,000. As a result of this agreement and transaction, the Company no longer has an interest in Southeast Biofuels.

NOTE 12 13. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

The Company is a party to the Jacoby Energy Development and the Global Energy Management lawsuits as described below. An adverse result in either litigation matter could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, results of operations and financial condition.

16Jacoby Energy Development, Inc. Lawsuit. On July 28, 2008, Jacoby Energy Development, Inc. (“JEDI”), Geoplasma, LLC and Georecover-Live Oak, LLC filed an action in the Superior Court of Fulton County of the State of Georgia against the Company, its subsidiary Global Energy Systems, Inc. (“GES”), and six current or former officers and employees of the Company. The six individual defendants are Romilos Papadopoulos, the Company’s former Chief Operating Officer, former Chief Financial Officer, former Executive Vice President and former Secretary; Michael Ellis, the Company’s former Chief Operating Officer and former President of GES; and four other employees of GES. The complaint alleges, among other things, that the Company breached a mutual nondisclosure agreement related to previous negotiations for a possible merger between the Company and JEDI and its affiliates. The plaintiffs allege that the Company breached the agreement by soliciting and hiring the six individual defendants, who were previously employed by the plaintiffs, and by using the plaintiffs’ confidential and proprietary information for its own business purposes. The plaintiffs also allege that the Company tortiously interfered with the plaintiffs’ business and misappropriated the plaintiffs’ trade secrets. The plaintiffs seek, among other things, a permanent injunction, unspecified compensatory damages plus costs and expenses incurred in connection with the litigation, including attorneys’ fees, and general and punitive damages in an amount not less than $10 million. The Company denied the allegations in the complaint, and the individual defendants have asserted counterclaims against the plaintiffs. Pursuant to a scheduling order entered by the court on December 30, 2008, discovery was scheduled to end on July 31, 2009, and dispositive motions, including motions for summary judgment, was required to be filed by August 17, 2009. The parties have refrained from conducting discovery while they attempt to reach a business resolution of the issues, but as of the date of this report, the parties have not yet reached a settlement. The parties are continuing their discussions, but the discovery may resume shortly if a resolution is not reached.

Global Energy and Management, LLC Lawsuit. In December 2007, Global Energy and Management, LLC (“GEM”) filed an action in the federal court for the Southern District of New York against the Company and nine of the Company’s current or former officers, directors and affiliates entitled Global Energy and Management v. Xethanol Corporation, et al. The lawsuit alleges fraud by the defendants in connection with GEM’s alleged investment of $250,000 in NewEnglandXethanol, LLC, a joint venture of the Company and GEM. Initially, GEM sought more than $10,000,000 in damages plus pre-judgment interest and costs. After the Company asked the District Court in May 2008 for leave to move to dismiss the complaint, GEM served the Company with its third amended complaint, seeking damages of only $250,000. Upon the Company’s motion, the Court dismissed that complaint on February 23, 2009, holding that GEM could file an amended complaint only upon payment to the Company of $5,000 towards its legal fees. On March 17, 2009, GEM paid the Company $5,000 and filed its Fourth Amended Complaint against the Company and four former directors and officers seeking in damages repayment of its alleged $250,000 investment, lost profits, consequential damages, interest and costs. The Company has asked the Court for leave to move to dismiss the Fourth Amended Complaint and intends to defend against this action vigorously.

NOTE 15.

FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

We adopted the FASB’s new fair value guidance for our financial assets and financial liabilities on January 1, 2008 and for our non-financial assets and non-financial liabilities on January 1, 2009 (see Note 2 — Recently Issued Accounting Standards). Under this guidance, fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (an exit price). This guidance outlines a valuation framework and creates a fair value hierarchy in order to increase the consistency and comparability of fair value measurements and the related disclosures.

The Company determined its fair values based on the fair value hierarchy established in FASB accounting guidance which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The FASB accounting guidance describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value.

Level 1: quoted price (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets

Level 2: inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the instrument

Level 3: inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable for the asset or liability

The following table shows the fair value of our non-financial assets that were required to be measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis as of September 30, 2009. These non-financial assets, which included our property held for sale, property previously held for development, and cost method investment, were required to be measured at fair value in connection with the interim impairment test we performed.

We undertake no obligation to publicly update any forward looking-statement, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

You should read the following discussion of our financial condition and results of operation in conjunction with our financial statements and the related notes included in this report.

Overview

Change in Name and New Corporate Structure

On October 27, 2008, we changed our name to Global Energy Holdings Group, Inc. from Xethanol Corporation. The Company’s principal operating division is Global Energy Systems, Inc. (“GES”)~~, which is developing renewable energy projects, including biomass projects, such as gasification, and landfill-gas-to-energy projects~~.

Source of Revenue until May 1, 2008

Our only source of operating revenue had been from our sales of ethanol and related products at our corn-based ethanol plant in Blairstown, Iowa. As a result of high prices for corn and natural gas, on May 1, 2008 we ceased production of ethanol at our Blairstown plant to reduce our operating losses. On August 31, ~~and~~ we2009, ~~are~~Xethanol ~~actively~~BioFuels, ~~seeking~~LLC, a ~~purchaser~~wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, entered into an agreement for the sale of the Blairstown plant to Fiberight, LLC, and this sale was completed on November 17, 2009. As of ~~June~~September 30, 2009, we had no source of operating revenue. It is anticipated that our future revenues, if any, will be generated from the purchase and sale of assets and businesses that we acquired ~~and plan to acquire~~ in 2009, and from service contracts related to landfill gas-to-energy projects and energy efficiency.

Cash and Liquidity Position

We had cash of approximately $95117,000 as of ~~June~~September 30, 2009 and $551,000 as of November ~~August~~ 1, 2009.

Investment Activities

For the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2009, net cash of $~~536~~1,415,000 was provided by ~~investing~~ investing activities. During 2009, we have received $3,153,000 from ~~the~~ the redemption of short-term marketable securities, $583,000 from the sale of ~~NGBF~~ NGBF common stock, $250,000 from the sale of landfill gas purchase rights, $132,000 from the sale of shares of Series B Stock and warrants to purchase Series B Stock of Carbon Motors Corporation, $330,000 in cash deposits from the planned sale of the Blairstown facility and we purchased intangible assets of $3,~~450~~050,000.

On July 23, 2009, we completed the sale of 120,000 shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock of Carbon Motors Corporation and a warrant to purchase 18,000 shares of the Series B Stock at $1.05 per share for a purchase price of $132,000. On March 17, 2009, the Company entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement (the “NGBF Purchase Agreement”) with 2020 Energy, LLC, an Arizona limited liability company (“2020 Energy”), pursuant to which the Company sold to 2020 Energy, in a private transaction, all of the Company’s 5,301,300 shares of common stock of NGBF. We completed the sale of the NGBF shares to 2020 Energy on March 18, 2009, and 2020 Energy paid us an aggregate purchase price of $583,143 for the NGBF shares. 19

On July 23, 2009, we completed the sale of 120,000 shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock of Carbon Motors Corporation and a warrant to purchase 18,000 shares of the Series B Stock at $1.05 per share for a total purchase price of $132,000. On March 17, 2009, the Company entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement (the “NGBF Purchase Agreement”) with 2020 Energy, LLC, an Arizona limited liability company (“2020 Energy”), pursuant to which the Company sold to 2020 Energy, in a private transaction, all of the Company’s 5,301,300 shares of common stock of NGBF. We completed the sale of the NGBF shares to 2020 Energy on March 18, 2009, and 2020 Energy paid us an aggregate purchase price of $583,143 for the NGBF shares.

In addition to the sale of the NGBF shares described above, under the NGBF Purchase Agreement, we agreed to assign to 2020 Energy all of our interest in and rights under that certain Amended and Restated Sublicense Agreement, dated as of June 15, 2006, between us and NGBF (the “Sublicense Agreement”), pursuant to which NGBF granted us a sublicense to certain technology and rights related to the manufacture of a vegetable oil based biodiesel product. The assignment of the Sublicense Agreement, however, is conditioned on 2020 Energy obtaining the written consent of NGBF to the assignment.

Asset Sale and Possible Asset Sale

We have reevaluated our Augusta, Georgia and Spring Hope, North Carolina facilities and have decided that they no longer fit within our long-term corporate strategy. On March 20, 2008, our board authorized management to pursue the sale of each facility, which we are currently doing. We ~~are also~~ ~~pursuing the sale of our ethanol facilities in Blairstown, Iowa. We~~ can offer no assurance regarding how long it will take to sell any of these facilities or the price we might receive for them. ~~In the interim, while we still hold these real estate assets, we are also seeking to obtain a credit facility secured by these assets.~~

The Company’s board of directors ~~had~~has decided to seek a buyer or significant equity partner for its landfill gas purchase rights at the Hickory Ridge Landfill acquired during 2009. The Company is currently in negotiations with ~~potential~~ potential buyers and equity partners for the Hickory Ridge Landfill gas purchase rights. The Company previously paid an aggregate purchase price of $3,350,000, of which $400,000 was paid in 2008, to acquire the Hickory Ridge Landfill gas purchase rights in the first quarter of 2009.

On June 18, 2009, we completed the sale of the Company’s landfill gas purchase rights at the Zemel Road Landfill to MAS for $250,000. in cash. The Company recorded a $150,000 gain on the sale and has no further obligations on the project. We had paid $100,000 to acquire the Zemel Road Landfill gas rights (with obligations to pay an additional $250,000 if certain milestones were met).

On July 23, 2009 the Company sold 120,000 shares of Carbon Motors Corporation Series B Stock and a warrant to purchase 18,000 shares of the Series B Stock for $1.05 per share for a total purchase price of $132,000 to Ariel Savannah Angel Partners, LLC, a related party through a relationship of a board member of the Company. As a result of the July 23rd sale transaction, the Company now holds 80,000 shares of Carbon Motors Series B Stock and a warrant to purchase 12,000 shares of the Series B Stock for $1.05 per share.

On August 31, 2009, Xethanol BioFuels, LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, entered into an agreement for the sale of the Company’s Blairstown, Iowa ethanol facility to Fiberight, LLC for a purchase price of $1.65 million. Fiberight paid to the Company an earnest money deposit of $165,000. The parties expected the transaction to close on or before September 30, 2009, but Fiberight extended the closing date to November 15, 2009 with an additional deposit of $165,000. The sale of the Blairstown, Iowa facility to Fiberight, LLC was completed on November 17, 2009.

Going Concern and Anticipated Funding Needs

The Company ~~will~~needs ~~need~~ substantial additional capital to pursue its plans and projects, and given the current economic and financial climate, the Company can give no assurance that it will be able to raise the additional capital that it needs on commercially acceptable terms, or at all. The Company ~~will need~~needs to reduce costs and raise additional financing to fund operations and long term business objectives. The Company’s continued existence is dependent upon several factors, including obtaining additional debt or equity financing and developing and completing renewable energy projects. In the event Management is ~~investigating~~unsuccessful ~~various~~in ~~sources~~these efforts, the Company is likely to seek relief under the U.S. Bankruptcy Code. This relief may include (i) seeking bankruptcy court approval for the sale of ~~debt~~most or substantially all of ~~equity~~our ~~financing~~assets ~~and~~pursuant isto ~~developing~~section ~~marketing~~363(b) ~~and~~of ~~production~~the ~~plans~~U.S. ~~for~~Bankruptcy ~~its~~Code; (ii) pursuing ~~products~~a plan of reorganization; or (iii) seeking another form of bankruptcy relief, all of which involve uncertainties, potential delays and litigation risks. ~~These~~As ~~matters~~a ~~raise~~result ~~substantial~~of the preceding factors, there is a substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

As ~~noted~~ discussed above, in June 2008, we formed a new operating division, Global Energy Systems, Inc. (“GES”). We will need substantial additional capital to ~~pursue~~ pursue our plans, which, among other things, include the construction of a landfill gas capture and processing facility at the Hickory Ridge Landfill, if we do not sell the Hickory Ridge Landfill gas project. We have decided not to pursue our previously announced plans to construct a demonstration plant for converting citrus peel waste into ethanol, and we sold the remaining fixed assets associated with the demonstration plant project to our lender, Renewable Spirits, LLC, in exchange for the forgiveness of $279,000 in debt on January 19, 2009. We also ceased production of ethanol at our Blairstown ethanol plant in May 2008 to reduce our operating losses, and we completed the sale of the Blairstown ethanol plant on November 17, 2009. Our capital requirements, however, remain substantial in order to pursue our business strategy.

1820

The Company generated no operating revenues during the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~ September 30, 2009. As discussed above, we ceased production of ethanol at our Blairstown ethanol plant in May 2008, which was our only revenue producing facility, and we currently have no operating source of revenue. We also currently have no commitments for additional financing. Our only recent sources of cash were from (1) the sale of all of our 5,301,300 shares of NGBF common stock on March 18, 2009 to 2020 Energy for an aggregate purchase price of $583,143, ~~and~~ (2) the sale of shares of Carbon Motors Corporation Series B Convertible Preferred Stock and a related warrant for $132,000, (3) the sale of the Company’s landfill gas purchase rights at the Zemel Road Landfill to MAS for $250,000 and (4) the sale of the Company’s Blairstown, Iowa facility for $1.65 million on November 17, 2009, of which $330,000 was received during the three months ended September 30, 2009. There can be no assurance that we will be able to obtain additional debt or equity financing on commercially acceptable terms, or at all, when needed. In addition, on June 4, 2009, the Company received a notice from NYSE Amex, LLC (“NYSE Amex”) notifying ~~the~~ the Company that it is not in compliance with Section 1003(a)(iv) of the NYSE ~~Amex~~ Amex Company Guide. The notice informed the Company that to maintain its ~~listing~~ listing on the exchange, it must submit a plan to regain compliance. The Company ~~has~~ submitted ~~the~~a plan of compliance, and ison ~~awaiting~~August 18, 2009, NYSE Amex notified the Company that it accepted the Company’s ~~acceptance~~plan of compliance and granted the ~~plan.~~Company Ifan ~~NYSE Amex~~extension ~~does~~until ~~not~~December ~~accept~~3, 2009 to regain compliance with the ~~plan~~continued orlisting standards of the Company Guide. If the Company fails to ~~regain~~make ~~compliance~~progress consistent with the ~~Section~~compliance ~~1003(a)(iv)~~plan ofor to regain compliance with the Company Guide’s continued listing standards by December 3, 2009, then the Company ~~will~~ could be subject to delisting procedures. ~~While~~from ~~we are working diligently to regain compliance with~~ NYSE Amex,. If if our stock is delisted from the NYSE Amex exchange, it may become more difficult for us to raise capital.

If we are unable to access the capital markets to finance our various projects, we ~~may~~will be unable to continue our operations. We are pursuing the sale of ~~the Blairstown ethanol plant and~~ our facilities in Augusta, Georgia and Spring Hope, North Carolina, as discussed above, although we can provide no assurance regarding how long it will take to sell these facilities or the price we will receive for them.

Acquisitions and Terminated Acquisition

On ~~February~~ 2June 18, 2009, we ~~acquired~~completed the ~~right~~sale ~~to purchase from a subsidiary~~ of ~~Republic~~ all of the ~~landfill gas generated at Republic~~Company’s ~~Hickory~~equity ~~Ridge~~interests ~~Landfill~~in ~~through~~GES-Port ~~December~~Charlotte, 31LLC, ~~2029.

Subsequent to the ~~exclusive~~acquisition ~~right~~of these rights, the Company’s board of directors has decided to ~~construct~~seek ~~and~~a ~~operate~~buyer aor equity partner for this landfill gas~~-to-energy~~ purchase right and project. The atCompany is currently in negotiations with potential buyers and equity partners for the ~~Zemel~~Hickory ~~Road~~Ridge Landfill gas rights and project. The Company previously paid an aggregate purchase price of $3,350,000 to acquire the Hickory Ridge Landfill gas purchase rights.

On June 18, 2009, we completed the sale of all of the Company’s equity interests in GES-Port Charlotte, LLC, a subsidiary of the company holding the Zemel Road Landfill gas purchase rights, to MAS for $250,000. The Company recorded a $150,000 gain on the sale and has no further obligations on the project.

On January 28, 2009, we entered into an agreement to acquire the WoodTech Companies, which include a wood fuel recycler and landscape materials manufacturing business that recycles wood waste into mulch, topsoil, potting soils and fuel for industrial customers and the generation of renewable energy. Under the agreement, either we or the WoodTech Companies could terminate the agreement under certain circumstances if the acquisition was not completed on or prior to February 17, 2009. The Company did not complete the acquisition of the WoodTech Companies due to capital constraints, and on May 13, 2009, the Company entered into a termination agreement (the “Termination Agreement”) with respect to the WoodTech Companies acquisition agreement. Under the terms of the Termination Agreement, the Company agreed to reimburse the WoodTech Companies for up to $280,000 in legal fees and financial audit fees incurred by the WoodTech Companies in contemplation of a closing of the WoodTech acquisition agreement, payable by the Company upon the closing of the sale of any asset of the Company resulting in net proceeds paid to the Company in an amount of at least $1 million. The Company’s obligation to reimburse the WoodTech Companies for these fees is secured by a security interest in the Company’s Augusta, Georgia facility.

Possible Effects of Current Business Climate

The continuing “credit crunch” has affected or may affect us in several ways. We face difficulties in obtaining the necessary debt and equity capital we need to pursue our business plan. The difficult credit environment may also affect our plans to sell one or more of our facilities to the extent that purchasers need to finance the purchase of those facilities with debt. In addition, the bankruptcy filing of ethanol producer VeraSun Energy Corporation in the fourth quarter of 2008 may further depress the value of ethanol plants like our Blairstown ethanol facilities, which we are trying to sell. The substantial and rapid decline in the price of natural gas and other traditional energy sources, including coal and oil, may also affect our business adversely by causing our landfill gas products to become uncompetitive from a pricing standpoint and given that the business viability of, and political support for, renewable energy has generally in the past been inversely correlated with the price of traditional energy fuels. In summary, like many businesses in America, we face a difficult and uncertain market.

We had cash of approximately $95117,000 as of ~~June~~September 30, 2009 and approximately $551,000 as of November ~~August~~ 1, 2009.

During the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2009, we used net cash of $1.2.1 million for operating activities. During the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2009, $01.~~5 million~~4 million in net cash was provided by investing activities. During the ~~six~~ nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2009, we received cash of $3.2 million from the redemption of short-term marketable securities; received $0.6 million in cash from the sale of our investment in NGBF; received $250,000 from the sale of intangible assets; and purchased intangible assets for $3.5 1 million.

In December 2006, we formed a joint venture to invest in a research project to produce ethanol from citrus waste. We agreed to pay $600,000 to our joint venture partner over the next ten years. We have decided not to pursue the construction of a demonstration plant for converting citrus peel waste into ethanol. On January 19, 2009, we sold our fixed assets associated with this project, and the buyer, our joint venture partner, cancelled the remaining $279,000 of debt we had outstanding.

We ~~will~~ need substantial additional capital to fund the business of the Company, ~~including~~ including the development of energy-related projects and the funding of any other growth opportunities we pursue. If we are unable to obtain ~~sufficient~~ sufficient additional capital, we ~~may~~are likely to lose our investments in our energy-related projects, including our Hickory Ridge Landfill gas project. The Company is seeking a buyer or a significant equity partner for the landfill gas rights and project at the Hickory Ridge Landfill. Due to capital constraints, the Company did not complete the acquisition of the WoodTech Companies pursuant to the purchase agreement entered into on January 28, 2009. The Company entered into a termination agreement, terminating the WoodTech Companies acquisition agreement on May 13, 2009, and pursuant to which the Company agreed to reimburse the WoodTech Companies up to $280,000 for certain expenses incurred by them in preparation to close the now terminated acquisition. For more information regarding the termination agreement, see our Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 15, 2009.

We anticipate our primary sources of capital to be the sale of certain assets of the Company. We ~~are~~completed ~~currently pursuing~~ the sale of the Company’s Blairstown, ~~Iowa~~ Iowa ethanol facility. Weto Fiberight, LLC on November 17, 2009 pursuant to an agreement for the sale of the facility dated August 31, 2009 between Xethanol BioFuels, LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, and Fiberight, LLC. We have reevaluated the Company’s ~~August~~Augusta, Georgia and Spring Hope, North Carolina facilities and have decided that they no longer fit within our long-term corporate strategy. On March 20, 2008, the Company’s board of of directors authorized management to pursue the sale of these facilities, which we we are currently doing. As discussed above, the Company is also currently in negotiations with potential buyers and equity partners for the landfill gas rights with respect to its Hickory Ridge Landfill project. We can offer no assurance regarding our ability to complete these transactions, the proceeds we may receive from any such sale or the timing of any such sale.

We may also seek to raise capital through additional equity offerings, debt financing, bond financing or a combination of these methods.

To conserve our cash and cash equivalents or generate positive cash flow, we have taken or expect to take several actions, including:

If we are successful in selling our Augusta, Georgia facility, we estimate that such sale would reduce our annual overhead by approximately $500,000.

If we are successful in selling our Spring Hope, North Carolina facility, we estimate that such sale would reduce our annual overhead by approximately $150,000.

We are pursuing the sale of all or a portion of our Hickory Ridge Landfill gas rights.

On June 4, 2009, we received a notice from NYSE Amex regarding the Company’s failure to comply with Section 1003(a)(iv) of the NYSE Amex Company Guide. In response to the notice, we have submitted a plan to regain compliance with the Company Guide, but if NYSE Amex rejects our plan or if the Company does not regain compliance with the NYSE Amex Company Guide by December 3, 2009, the Company will be subject to delisting procedures. While we are working diligently to regain compliance with the NYSE Amex Company Guide, if our stock is delisted from the NYSE Amex exchange, it will become more difficult for the Company to raise additional capital.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We have not entered into any transactions with unconsolidated entities in which we have financial guarantees, subordinated retained interests, derivative instruments or other contingent arrangements that expose us to material continuing risks, contingent liabilities or any other obligations under a variable interest in an unconsolidated entity that provides us with financing, liquidity, market risk or credit risk support.

Critical Accounting Policies

The preparation of our consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. We evaluate our estimates on an ongoing basis, including those related to valuation of intangible assets, investments, property and equipment, contingencies and litigation, and the valuation of shares issued for services or in connection with acquisitions. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. The accounting policies that we follow are described in Note 2 to our consolidated financial statements included in this report.

With regard to our policies surrounding the valuation of shares issued for services or in connection with acquisitions, we rely on the fair value of the shares at the time they were issued. After considering various trading aspects of our stock, including volatility, trading volume and public float, we believe that the price of our stock as reported on NYSE Amex exchange (formerly known as the American Stock Exchange) is the most reliable indicator of fair value. The fair value of options and warrants issued for services is determined at the grant date using a Black-Scholes option pricing model and is expensed over the respective vesting periods. A modification of the terms or conditions of an equity award is treated as an exchange of the original award for a new award in accordance with ~~SFAS~~FASB Noaccounting guidance. ~~123R.~~

2426

We evaluate impairment of long-lived assets in accordance with ~~SFAS~~FASB ~~No. 144, “~~accounting ~~Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets~~guidance.” We assess the impairment of long-lived assets, including property and equipment and purchased intangibles subject to amortization, whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. The asset impairment review assesses the fair value of the assets based on the future cash flows the assets are expected to generate. We recognize an impairment loss when estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to result from the use of the asset plus net proceeds expected from the disposition of the asset (if any) are less than the related asset’s carrying amount. Impairment losses are measured as the amount by which the carrying amounts of the assets exceed their fair values. Property held for sale is recorded at the lower of its carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell. Estimates of future cash flows are judgments based on management’s experience and knowledge of our operations and the industries in which we operate. These estimates can be significantly affected by future changes in market conditions, the economic environment, capital spending decisions of our customers and inflation.

Item 4T.

Controls and Procedures.

Based on our management’s evaluation, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as of June 30, 2009, the end of the period covered by this report, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures (~~as defined in Rule 13a-15(e~~a) ~~under~~Evaluation ~~the Securities Exchange Act~~ of ~~1934,~~Disclosure ~~as amended, (the “Exchange~~Controls ~~Act”)) were effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized~~ and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC and is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.Procedures

~~There~~Regulations under ~~was~~the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) require public nocompanies ~~change~~to inmaintain ~~our~~“disclosure ~~internal~~controls ~~control~~and ~~over~~procedures”, ~~financial~~which ~~reporting~~are defined as controls and other procedures that ~~occurred~~are ~~during~~designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the ~~quarter~~issuer ~~ended~~in ~~June~~the 30reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, ~~2009~~processed, ~~that~~summarized ~~has~~and ~~materially~~reported, ~~affected~~within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by an issuer in the reports that it files or issubmits ~~reasonably~~under the ~~likely~~Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to ~~materially~~the ~~affect~~issuer’s management, including ~~our~~its ~~internal~~principal ~~control~~executive ~~over~~and principal financial officers, or persons ~~reporting~~performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

~~The~~We ~~design~~conducted ofan ~~any~~evaluation, ~~system~~with the participation of ~~controls~~our Chief Executive Officer and ~~procedures~~Chief isFinancial ~~based~~Officer, inof ~~part~~the ~~upon~~effectiveness ~~certain assumptions~~of ~~about~~our ~~the~~disclosure ~~likelihood~~controls and procedures as of ~~future~~September ~~events~~30, 2009. ~~There~~Based ~~can~~on bethat noevaluation, our ~~assurance~~Chief Executive Office and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, ~~any~~as ~~design~~of September ~~will~~30, ~~succeed~~2009, inour ~~achieving~~disclosure ~~its~~controls ~~stated~~and ~~goals~~procedures ~~under~~were ~~all~~not effective ~~potential~~due ~~future~~to ~~conditions~~the material weakness described below. A material weakness is a deficiency, ~~regardless~~or combination of ~~how~~deficiencies, ~~remote~~in internal control over financial reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

25We do not have sufficient segregation of duties within accounting functions due to a lack of economic resources. This material weakness restricts our ability to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management and that information is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms.

The Company has developed plans to remediate this material weakness. The Company’s remediation efforts consist of hiring additional employees and reallocating duties, including responsibilities for financial reporting, among the Company's employees as soon as the Company has the financial resources to do so.

(b) Changes in Internal Controls

Other than the actions mentioned above, there has been no change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the Company’s most recent fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1.

Legal Proceedings.

The Company is a party to the Jacoby Energy Development and Global Energy Management lawsuits described in more detail in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008, filed with the SEC on April 15, 2009, and our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2009, filed with the SEC on May 20, 2009. There have been no material developments in these lawsuits since our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2009.

Item 1A.

Risk Factors.

In addition to the other information set forth in this quarterly report and the risk factor set forth below, you should carefully consider the factors discussed in Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors,” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008. These risk factors could materially affect our business, financial condition or future results. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and/or operating results.

If the Company fails to regain compliance with Section 1003(a)(iv) of the NYSE Amex Company Guide, the Company may be subject to delisting procedures, and if the Company’s stock is delisted from the NYSE Amex Exchange, the value of our stock could drop significantly in value, become illiquid, and the Company could encounter further difficulties in raising additional capital.

On June 4, 2009, the Company received a notice from NYSE Amex that the Company was not in compliance with Section 1003(a)(iv) of the NYSE Amex Company Guide in that it has sustained losses that are so substantial in relation to its overall operations or its existing financial resources, or its financial condition has become so impaired that it appears questionable, in the opinion of NYSE Amex, as to whether the Company will be able to continue operations and/or meet its obligations as they mature. The notice from the exchange required the Company to submit a plan to regain compliance with Section 1003(a)(iv) of the Company Guide, which the Company has done. ~~However~~NYSE Amex notified the Company on August 18, 2009 ifof ~~NYSE~~its ~~Amex~~acceptance ~~rejects~~of the Company’s compliance plan and granted the Company an extension until December 3, or2009 to regain compliance with the continued listing standards of the Company Guide. However, if the Company fails to make progress consistent with the compliance plan or to regain compliance with Section 1003(a)(iv) of the Company Guide by December 3, 2009, the Company’s common stock could become subject to delisting procedures. If the Company’s common stock is delisted from the NYSE Amex Exchange, it will likely be more difficult for our stockholders to sell their shares of stock, as there may be no easily accessible market to sell such shares. Consequently, the value of our common stock could decrease significantly. In addition, delisting of our common stock from the NYSE Amex exchange would likely increase the difficulties of the Company in raising additional capital or otherwise obtaining financing.

The Company did not maintain effective internal control over financial reporting as of September 30, 2009.

We do not have sufficient segregation of duties within accounting functions due to a lack of economic resources. This material weakness restricts our ability to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management and that information is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. The Company plans to remediate this material weakness by hiring additional employees and reallocating duties, including responsibilities for financial reporting, among the Company’s employees if and when the Company has the financial resources to do so. These efforts, however, may not result in an improvement to our internal controls over financial reporting. We may not be able to obtain the financial resources to implement these measures, and we cannot be certain that any measures we take will ensure that we implement and maintain adequate internal controls in the future. Any failure to implement required new or improved controls, or difficulties encountered in their implementation, could harm our operating results or cause us to fail to meet our reporting obligations.
