Note 2.SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

This summary of significant accounting policies is presented to assist in understanding the accompanying financial statements. The financial statements and notes are representations of the Company's management, which is responsible for their integrity and objectivity. These accounting policies conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and have been consistently applied in the preparation of the financial statements.

ACCOUNTING METHOD

The Company's financial statements are prepared using the accrual basis of accounting in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

DEVELOPMENT STAGE ACTIVITIES

For all periods prior to December 31, 2011, the Company considered itself a development stage enterprise. During the year ended December 31, 2011, the Company has generated approximately $61,000 in revenue and made significant progress toward achieving its intended business plan of producing, marketing and selling Light Emitting Diode ("LED") lighting. As a result of the generation of revenue as well as a result of the Company development we no longer consider ourselves a development stage enterprise.

CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS

For purposes of the statement of cash flows, the Company considers all short-term debt with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The Company's financial instruments may include cash, accounts receivable, inventory, other assets, loans payable and related accrued interest, and accounts payable. All such instruments are accounted for on a historical cost basis, which, due to the short maturity of these financial instruments, approximates fair value at December 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010.

ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE AND ALLOWANCE FOR DOUBTFUL ACCOUNTS

Accounts receivable are stated at the amount the Company expects to collect. The Company provides an allowance for doubtful accounts equal to the estimated uncollectible amounts. The Company's estimate is based on historical collection experience and a review of the current status of trade accounts receivable. It is reasonably possible that the Company's estimate of the allowance for doubtful accounts will change.

As of December 31, 2011 accounts receivable are presented net of an allowance for doubtful accounts of $9,032.

As of December 31, 2010 the Company wrote off a related party receivable amounting to $218,636 and recorded a bad debt expense, based on management's evaluation of the balance and certainty that the balance would not be collectible in the future.

PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT AND LEASEHOLD IMPROVEMENTS

Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Expenditures for major additions and improvements are capitalized and minor replacements, maintenance, and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. When property and equipment are disposed of, the cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any resulting gain or loss is included in the results of operations for the respective period.

Depreciation is provided for over the estimated useful lives of the related asset using the straight-line method. As of December 31, 2011 property and equipment consists of primarily computer equipment.

Included in leasehold improvements are costs related to the construction of the manufacturing facility in Baltimore Maryland. The leasehold improvements are being amortized using the straight-line method.

The estimated useful lives for significant equipment categories are from 3 to 5 years and for leasehold improvements the useful life is 10 years.

INVENTORY

The Company's inventory consists of entirely of finished goods, and is valued at lower of cost or market price. Cost is determined on a first-in, first-out ("FIFO") basis. To ensure inventory is carried at the lower of cost or market, the Company periodically evaluates the carrying value and also periodically performs an evaluation of inventory for excess and obsolete items. Such evaluations are based on management's judgment and use of estimates. Such estimates incorporate inventory quantities on-hand, aging of the inventory, sales forecasts for particular product groupings, planned dispositions of product lines and overall industry trends.

REVENUE RECOGNITION

Revenue is recognized when all of the following criteria are met: (1) persuasive evidence that an arrangement exists; (2) delivery has occurred or services have been rendered; (3) the seller's price to the buyer is fixed and determinable; and, (4) collectability is reasonably assured. The Company has earned minimal revenue since inception.

USE OF ESTIMATES

The process of preparing financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires the use of estimates and assumptions regarding certain types of assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses. Such estimates primarily relate to unsettled transactions and events as of the date of the financial statements. Accordingly, upon settlement, actual results may differ from estimated amounts.

PROVISION FOR TAXES

Income taxes are provided based upon the liability method of accounting. Under this approach, deferred income taxes are recorded to reflect the tax consequences in future years of differences between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and their financial reporting amounts at each year-end. A valuation allowance is recorded against the deferred tax asset if management does not believe the Company has met the "more likely than not" standard to allow recognition of such an asset.

BASIC AND DILUTED EARNINGS (LOSS) PER SHARE

The Company utilizes the guidance per FASB Codification “ASC 260 "Earnings Per Share". Basic earnings per share is calculated on the weighted effect of all common shares issued and outstanding, and is calculated by dividing net income available to common stockholders by the weighted average shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share, which is calculated by dividing net income available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares used in the basic earnings per share calculation, plus the number of common shares that would be issued assuming conversion of all potentially dilutive securities outstanding, is not presented separately as it is anti-dilutive. Such securities, shown below, presented on a common share equivalent basis and outstanding as of December 31, 2011 has been excluded from the per share computations as their effect would be anti-dilutive:

			2011
Convertible Preferred Stock			100,000,000
Convertible Bridge Notes and Notes Payable			4,300,754,667

The average number of common shares outstanding for the period from Inception ( October 20, 2006) through December 31, 2011 has been retroactively adjusted for the 2:1 forward stock split effective August 17, 2007.

STOCK BASED COMPENSATION

The Company accounts for stock based compensation transactions with employees under the provisions of ASC Topic No. 718, "Compensation, Stock Compensation" ("Topic No. 718"). Topic No. 718 requires the recognition of the fair value of equity-based compensation in net income. The fair value of the Company's equity instruments are estimated using a Black-Scholes option valuation model. This model requires the input of highly subjective assumptions and elections including expected stock price volatility and the estimated life of each award. In addition, the calculation of equity-based compensation costs requires that the Company estimate the number of awards that will be forfeited during the vesting period. The fair value of equity-based awards granted to employees is amortized over the vesting period of the award and the Company elected to use the straight-line method for awards granted after the adoption of Topic No. 718.

The Company accounts for equity based transactions with non-employees under the provisions of ASC Topic No. 505-50, "Equity-Based Payments to Non-Employees" ("Topic No. 505-50"). Topic No. 505-50 establishes that equity-based payment transactions with non-employees shall be measured at the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instruments issued, whichever is more reliably measurable. When the equity instrument is utilized for measurement the fair value of the equity instrument is estimated using the Black- Scholes option valuation model. In general, the Company recognizes an asset or expense in the same manner as if it was to receive cash for the goods or services instead of paying with or using the equity instrument.

FORWARD STOCK SPLIT

All references to the Company's outstanding shares, and options, have been adjusted to give effect to the 2 for 1 forward stock split effective August 17, 2007.

Derivative Liabilities

The Company assessed the classification of its derivative financial instruments as of December 31, 2011, which consist of convertible instruments and rights to shares of the Company’s common stock, and determined that such derivatives meet the criteria for liability classification under ASC 815.

ASC 815 generally provides three criteria that, if met, require companies to bifurcate conversion options from their host instruments and account for them as free standing derivative financial instruments. These three criteria include circumstances in which (a) the economic characteristics and risks of the embedded derivative instrument are not clearly and closely related to the economic characteristics and risks of the host contract, (b) the hybrid instrument that embodies both the embedded derivative instrument and the host contract is not re-measured at fair value under otherwise applicable generally accepted accounting principles with changes in fair value reported in earnings as they occur and (c) a separate instrument with the same terms as the embedded derivative instrument would be considered a derivative instrument subject to the requirements of ASC 815. ASC 815 also provides an exception to this rule when the host instrument is deemed to be conventional, as described.

The Company believes that certain conversion features embedded in its convertible notes payable and rights to the Company’s common stock are not clearly and closely related to the economic characteristics of the Company’s stock price. The Company does not have a sufficient amount of authorized shares to satisfy its obligations under the convertible notes payable and rights to the shares of common stock. Accordingly, the Company has recognized derivative liabilities in connection with such instruments. The Company uses judgment in determining the fair value of derivative liabilities at the date of issuance at every balance sheet thereafter. The Company uses judgment in determining which valuation is most appropriate for the instrument (e.g., Black Scholes), the expected volatility, the implied risk free interest rate, as well as the expected dividend rate. Upon issuance the fair value was calculated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following factors, assumptions, and methodologies:

	2011

Fair value of Company’s common stock	$	0.0005
Volatility		171%-250	%
Exercise price	$	0.0003-0.0005
Estimated life		1 year
Risk free interest rate (based on 1-year treasury rate)		.15	%

The fair value of our financial instruments at December 31, 2011 and 2010 are as follows:

	Fair Value Measurements at Reporting Date Using
	Quoted Prices in Active Markets for Identical Assets (Level 1)		Significant Other Observable Inputs (Level 2)		Significant Unobservable Inputs (Level 3)
December 31, 2010:
Derivative Liability	$	—	$	—	$	-

December 31, 2011:
Derivative Liability	$	—	$	—	$	300,312

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Effective January 1, 2008, the Company adopted FASB ASC 820-Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, or ASC 820, for assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis. ASC 820 establishes a common definition for fair value to be applied to existing generally accepted accounting principles that require the use of fair value measurements establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosure about such fair value measurements. The adoption of ASC 820 did not have an impact on the Company’s financial position or operating results, but did expand certain disclosures.

ASC 820 defines fair value 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. Additionally, ASC 820 requires the use of valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. These inputs are prioritized below:

Level 1:	Observable inputs such as quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities
Level 2:	Observable market-based inputs or unobservable inputs that are corroborated by market data
Level 3:	Unobservable inputs for which there is little or no market data, which require the use of the reporting entity’s own assumptions.

The Company did not have any Level 2 or Level 3 assets or liabilities as of December 31, 2011, with the exception of its convertible notes payable and derivative liability. The carrying amounts of these liabilities at December 31, 2011 approximate their respective fair value based on the Company’s incremental borrowing rate.

Cash is considered to be highly liquid and easily tradable as of December 31, 2011 and therefore classified as Level 1 within our fair value hierarchy.

In addition, FASB ASC 825-10-25 Fair Value Option, or ASC 825-10-25, was effective for January 1, 2008. ASC 825-10-25 expands opportunities to use fair value measurements in financial reporting and permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value. The Company did not elect the fair value options for any of its qualifying financial instruments.

RECLASSIFICATIONS

Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior periods’ financial statements to conform to the current year presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on previously reported results of operations or the sum of stockholders’ deficit.

INTANGIBLE ASSETS

License Agreements

License agreements acquired by the Company are reported at acquisition value less accumulated amortization and impairments.

Amortization

Amortization is reported in the income statement straight-line over the estimated useful life of the intangible assets, unless the useful life is indefinite. Amortizable intangible assets are amortized from the date that they are available for use. The estimated useful life of the license agreement is five years which is the term of the underlying license agreement. The license is not yet in use as such the Company has not yet begun amortizing the asset.

Assessment of an intangible asset’s residual value and useful life is performed annually.

As stated in FASB 142 paragraph 11, the accounting for a recognized intangible asset is based on its useful life to the reporting entity. The Company has yet to use the license and as such has not begun amortizing the asset. When the Company does begin the amortization it will be over a 5 year period at $220,000 per year.

Customer Concentration

Two of the Company's customers accounted for approximately 17% and 19% respectively of its revenues during the year ending December 31, 2011.

RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In May 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-04, “Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRSs,” which is not expected to have a material impact on the financial statements upon adoption.

In June 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-05, “Presentation of Comprehensive Income.” Under the amendments in this ASU, an entity has two options for presenting its total comprehensive income: to present total comprehensive income and its components along with the components of net income in a single continuous statement, or in two separate but consecutive statements. The amendments in this ASU are required to be applied retrospectively and are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2011, with early adoption permitted. The adoption of ASU No. 2011-05 will not have any material impact on the Company’s financial position and results of operations.

In September 2011, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2011-08, Intangibles — Goodwill and Other (Topic 350). This Accounting Standards Update amends FASB ASC Topic 350. This amendment specifies the change in method for determining the potential impairment of goodwill. It includes examples of circumstances and events that the entity should consider in evaluating whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. The amendments are effective for annual and interim goodwill impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011. The adoption does not have any material impact on the Company’s financial position and results of operations.

Accounting standards that have been issued or proposed by FASB that do not require adoption until a future date are not expected to have a material impact on the financial statements upon adoption.

- Definition
