Silverstar Mining Corp.
(A Development Stage Company)
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(Expressed in U.S. Dollars)
(Unaudited)
30 June 2011

1.  
Nature, Basis of Presentation and Continuance of Operations
 
Silverstar Mining Corp. (the “Company”) was incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on 5 December 2003.  On 4 March 2008, the Company completed a merger with its wholly-owned subsidiary, Silverstar Mining Corp., which was incorporated by the Company solely to effect the name change of the Company to Silverstar Mining Corp.  The Company was incorporated for the purpose to promote and carry on any lawful business for which a corporation may be incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada.
 
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Silverdale Mining Corp. (“Silverdale”) from 24 July 2008, the date of acquisition.
 
The Company is a development stage enterprise, as defined in Accounting Standards Codification (the “Codification” or “ASC”) 915-10, “Development Stage Entities”. The Company is devoting all of its present efforts in securing and establishing a new business, and its planned principle operations have not commenced, and, accordingly, no revenue has been derived during the organization period.
 
The consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America applicable to development stage enterprises, and are expressed in U.S. dollars.  The Company’s fiscal year end is 30 September.
 
These consolidated financial statements as at 30 June 2011 and for the nine month period then ended have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the settlement of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business.  The Company has a loss of $38,872 for the nine month period ended 30 June 2011 (2010 - $58,903, cumulative - $1,503,012) and has a working capital deficit of $114,141 at 30 June 2011 (30 September 2010 - $93,269).
 
Management cannot provide assurance that the Company will ultimately achieve profitable operations or become cash flow positive, or raise additional debt and/or equity capital.  Management believes that the Company’s capital resources should be adequate to continue operating and maintaining its business strategy during the fiscal year ending 30 September 2011.  However, if the Company is unable to raise additional capital in the near future, due to the Company’s liquidity problems, management expects that the Company will need to curtail operations, liquidate assets, seek additional capital on less favourable terms and/or pursue other remedial measures.  These consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments related to the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
 
At 30 June 2011, the Company had suffered losses from development stage activities to date. Although management is currently attempting to implement its business plan, and is seeking additional sources of equity or debt financing, there is no assurance these activities will be successful. Accordingly, the Company must rely on its president to perform essential functions without compensation until a business operation can be commenced.  These factors raise substantial doubt about the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern.  The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
 
2.  
Significant Accounting Policies
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies used in the preparation of these consolidated financial statements.
 
Principles of consolidation
 
All inter-company transactions and balances have been eliminated in these consolidated financial statements.
 
Cash and cash equivalents
 
Cash and cash equivalents include highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less.
 
Mineral property costs
 
The Company has been in the development stage since its formation on 5 December 2003 and has not yet realized any revenues from its planned operations.  It is primarily engaged in the acquisition and exploration of mining properties.
 
Mineral property acquisition costs are initially capitalized as tangible assets when purchased.  At the end of each fiscal quarter end, the Company assesses the carrying costs for impairment.  If proven and probable reserves are established for a property and it has been determined that a mineral property can be economically developed, costs will be amortized using the units-of-production method over the estimated life of the probable reserve.
 
Mineral property exploration costs are expensed as incurred.
 
Estimated future removal and site restoration costs, when determinable are provided over the life of proven reserves on a units-of-production basis.  Costs, which include production equipment removal and environmental remediation, are estimated each period by management based on current regulations, actual expenses incurred, and technology and industry standards.  Any charge is included in exploration expense or the provision for depletion and depreciation during the period and the actual restoration expenditures are charged to the accumulated provision amounts as incurred.
 
As of the date of these consolidated financial statements, the Company has not established any proven or probable reserves on its mineral properties and incurred only acquisition and exploration costs (Note 4).
 
Although the Company has taken steps to verify title to mineral properties in which it has an interest, according to the usual industry standards for the stage of exploration of such properties, these procedures do not guarantee the Company’s title.  Such properties may be subject to prior agreements or transfers and title may be affected by undetected defects

Reclamation Costs
The Company’s policy for recording reclamation costs is to record a liability for the estimated costs to reclaim mined land by recording charges to production costs for each tonne of ore mined over the life of the mine.  The amount charged is based on management’s estimation of reclamation costs to be incurred.  The accrued liability is reduced as reclamation expenditures are made.  Certain reclamation work is performed concurrently with mining and these expenditures are charged to operations at that time.
 
Long-lived assets
Long-term assets of the Company are reviewed for impairment whenever events or circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of assets may not be recoverable, pursuant to guidance established in ASC 360-10-35-15, “Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets”.
 
Management considers assets to be impaired if the carrying value exceeds the future projected cash flows from related operations (undiscounted and without interest charges). If impairment is deemed to exist, the assets will be written down to fair value. Fair value is generally determined using a discounted cash flow analysis.
 
Income taxes
Deferred income taxes are reported for timing differences between items of income or expense reported in the consolidated financial statements and those reported for income tax purposes in accordance with ASC 740, “Income Taxes”, which requires the use of the asset/liability method of accounting for income taxes.  Deferred income taxes and tax benefits are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases, and for tax loss and credit carry-forwards.  Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled.  The Company provides for deferred taxes for the estimated future tax effects attributable to temporary differences and carry-forwards when realization is more likely than not.
 
Basic and diluted net loss per share
The Company computes net loss per share in accordance with ASC 260 “Earnings per Share”.  ASC 260 requires presentation of both basic and diluted earnings per share (“EPS”) on the face of the consolidated income statement.  Basic EPS is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common shareholders (numerator) by the weighted average number of shares outstanding (denominator) during the period.  Diluted EPS gives effect to all potentially dilutive common shares outstanding during the period using the treasury stock method and convertible preferred stock using the if-converted method.  In computing diluted EPS, the average stock price for the period is used in determining the number of shares assumed to be purchased from the exercise of stock options or warrants.  Diluted EPS excludes all potentially dilutive shares if their effect is anti-dilutive.
 
Fair value measurement
The carrying value of cash and cash equivalents, accounts payable, convertible debentures, and demand loans approximates their fair value because of the short maturity of these instruments.
 
Unless otherwise noted, it is management’s opinion that the Company is not exposed to significant interest, currency or credit risks arising from its financial instruments.
 
The Company manages liquidity risk by continuously monitoring actual and projected cash flows and matching the maturity profile of financial assets and liabilities.  The Company may encounter difficulties in meeting obligations associated with its financial liabilities.
 
Derivative financial instruments
The Company has not, to the date of these consolidated financial statements, entered into derivative instruments to offset the impact of foreign currency fluctuations.

Comprehensive loss
ASC 220, “Comprehensive Income”, establishes standards for the reporting and display of comprehensive loss and its components in the financial statements.  As at 30 June 2011, the Company has no items that represent a comprehensive loss and, therefore, has not included a schedule of comprehensive loss in the consolidated financial statements.
 
Segments of an enterprise and related information
ASC 280, “Segment Reporting” guidance for the way that public companies report information about operating segments in annual financial statements and requires reporting of selected information about operating segments in interim financial statements issued to the public.  It also establishes standards for disclosures regarding products and services, geographic areas and major customers.  ASC 280 defines operating segments as components of a company about which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance.  The Company has evaluated this Codification and does not believe it is applicable at this time.
 
Start-up expenses
The Company has adopted ASC 720-15, “Start-Up Costs”, which requires that costs associated with start-up activities be expensed as incurred.  Accordingly, start-up costs associated with the Company’s formation have been included in the Company’s general and administrative expenses for the period from the date of inception on 5 December 2003 to 30 June 2011.

Foreign currency translation
The Company’s functional and reporting currency is in U.S. dollars.  The consolidated financial statements of the Company are translated to U.S. dollars in accordance with ASC 830, “Foreign Currency Translation”.  Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated using the exchange rate prevailing at the balance sheet date.  Gains and losses arising on translation or settlement of foreign currency denominated transactions or balances are included in the determination of income.  The Company has not, to the date of these consolidated financial statements, entered into derivative instruments to offset the impact of foreign currency fluctuations.
 
Use of estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principle (“U.S GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenditures during the reporting period.  Actual results could differ from these estimates.

Changes in accounting policies
In February 2010, the FASB issued ASU No. 2010-09, “Amendments to Certain Recognition and Disclosure Requirements”, which eliminates the requirement for Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) filers to disclose the date through which an entity has evaluated subsequent events.  ASU No. 2010-09 is effective for its fiscal quarter beginning after 15 December 2010.  The adoption of ASU No. 2010-09 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
 
In January 2010, the FASB issued ASU No. 2010-06, “Fair Value Measurement and Disclosures (Topic 820): Improving Disclosure and Fair Value Measurements”, which requires that purchases, sales, issuances, and settlements for Level 3 measurements be disclosed.  ASU No. 2010-06 is effective for its fiscal quarter beginning after 15 December 2010.  The adoption of ASU No. 2010-06 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In June 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-05, “Presentation of Comprehensive Income”.  This ASU presents an entity with the option to present the total of comprehensive income, the components of net income, and the component of other comprehensive income either in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements.  In both choices, an entity is required to present each component of other comprehensive income along with a total for other comprehensive income, and a total amount for comprehensive income.  This update eliminates the option to present the components of other comprehensive income as part of the statement of changes in stockholders’ equity/deficit.  The amendments in this update do not change the items that must be reported in other comprehensive income or when an item of other comprehensive income must be reclassified to net income.  ASU No. 2011-05 should be applied retrospectively and is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after 15 December 2011.  As ASU No. 2011-05 relates only to the presentation of Comprehensive Income, the Company does not expect the adoption of this update will have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements.
 
In May 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-04, “Fair Value Measurement” to amend the accounting and disclosure requirements on fair value measurements.  This ASU limits the highest-and-best-use measure to nonfinancial assets, permits certain financial assets and liabilities with offsetting positions in market or counterparty credit risks to be measured at a net basis, and provides guidance on the applicability of premiums and discounts.  Additionally, this update expands the disclosure on Level 3 inputs by requiring quantitative disclosure of the unobservable inputs and assumptions, as well as description of the valuation processes and the sensitivity of the fair value to changes in unobservable inputs.  ASU No. 2011-04 is to be applied prospectively and is effective during interim and annual periods beginning after 15 December 2011.  The Company does not expect the adoption of this update will have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements.

On 30 September 2008, a former director and officer of the Company returned to treasury 15,000,000 common shares of the Company for proceeds of $Nil.  These shares were cancelled during the year ended 30 September 2008 (Note 11).
 
On 10 October 2008, the Company completed a public offering of securities pursuant to an exemption provided by Rule 504 of Regulation D, registered in the State of Nevada, and issued 950,000 common shares for total cash proceeds of $237,500.  On 24 July 2008, the Company issued 1,000,000 common shares related to this public offering of securities in error.  A total of 500,000 of these common shares were returned to treasury and cancelled.  A total of 500,000 of these common shares remain outstanding and the Company is in the process of obtaining these common shares for return to treasury and cancellation.  The Company has placed a trading restriction on these common shares pending their receipts to treasury and cancellation and has excluded them from total number of common shares reported as issued and outstanding at 30 September 2010.
 
On 15 January 2009, the Company completed a public offering of securities pursuant to an exemption provided by Rule 504 of Regulation D, registered in the State of Nevada, and issued 484,837 common shares for total cash proceeds of $218,176.
 
During the year ended 30 September 2009, former directors and officers of the Company returned to treasury 4,100,000 common shares of the Company for proceeds of $Nil.  These shares were cancelled during the year ended 30 September 2009 (Note 11).
 
During the year ended 30 September 2009, former officer of the Company forgave loans to the Company totaling $39,000.  This loan forgiveness has been recorded as contributions to capital (Note 11).
 
During the nine month period ended 30 June 2011, an officer and director of the Company made contributions to capital for management fees in the amount of $13,500 (2010 - $13,500) and rent in the amount of $4,500 (2010 - $4,500) (Notes 8 and 11).
 
Shares to be issued
During the year ended 30 September 2010, the Company accepted a demand loan from an unrelated party, in which the Company will issue 250,000 common shares in the Company upon repayment of the loan. The Company accrued interest expense of $7,500 related to the value of 250,000 common shares to be issued (Notes 6, 11 and 12).

Income Taxes
The Company has losses carried forward for income tax purposes to 30 June 2011.  There are no current or deferred tax expenses for the nine month period ended 30 June 2011 due to the Company’s loss position. The Company has fully reserved for any benefits of these losses.  The deferred tax consequences of temporary differences in reporting items for financial statement and income tax purposes are recognized, as appropriate.  Realization of the future tax benefits related to the deferred tax assets is dependent on many factors, including the Company’s ability to generate taxable income within the net operating loss carryforward period.  Management has considered these factors in reaching its conclusion as to the valuation allowance for financial reporting purposes.
The provision for refundable federal income tax consists of the following:

Item 2.  Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
 
Forward-Looking Statements
This quarterly report contains forward-looking statements.  These statements relate to future events or our future financial performance. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as "may", "should", "expects", "plans", "anticipates", "believes", "estimates", "predicts", "potential" or "continue" or the negative of these terms or other comparable terminology. These statements are only predictions and involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors, including the risks in the section entitled "Risk Factors", that may cause our or our industry's actual results, levels of activity, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot guarantee future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements. Except as required by applicable law, including the securities laws of the United States, we do not intend to update any of the forward-looking statements to conform these statements to actual results.
 
Our unaudited consolidated financial statements are stated in United States Dollars (US$) and are prepared in accordance with United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles. The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and the related notes that appear elsewhere in this quarterly report. The following discussion contains forward-looking statements that reflect our plans, estimates and beliefs. Our actual results could differ materially from those discussed in the forward looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to, those discussed below and elsewhere in this quarterly report, particularly in the section entitled "Risk Factors".
 
In this quarterly report, unless otherwise specified, all dollar amounts are expressed in United States dollars. All references to "common shares" refer to the common shares in our capital stock.
 
As used in this quarterly report and unless otherwise indicated, the terms "we", "us", "our", “Company”, and “Silverstar” mean Silverstar Mining Corp., a Nevada corporation, unless otherwise indicated and the term “Silverdale” means Silverdale Mining Corp., our wholly owned subsidiary.
 
Corporate History
We were incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on December 5, 2003 under the name “Computer Maid, Inc.”.  On February 13, 2006, we changed our name from “Computer Maid, Inc.” to “Rose Explorations Inc.”.
 
In February 2006, we acquired the Rose Prospect Lode Mining Claim in Clark County Nevada and in June 2006, we staked the Rose Prospect II Lode Mining Claim adjacent to the west of the Rose Lode Claim to cover other indicated mineralized zones observed in that area. From February 2006, we have been an exploration stage company engaged in the exploration of mineral properties.
 
Effective March 4, 2008, we completed a merger with our subsidiary, Silverstar Mining Corp., a Nevada corporation. As a result, we changed our name from “Rose Explorations Inc.” to “Silverstar Mining Corp.” We changed the name of our company to better reflect the direction and business of our company.
 
In addition, effective March 4, 2008 we effected a three (3) for one (1) forward stock split of our authorized and issued and outstanding common stock. As a result, our authorized capital increased from 75,000,000 shares of common stock with a par value of $0.001 to 225,000,000 shares of common stock with a par value of $0.001.
 
On March 31, 2008, we entered into a joint venture agreement with New Jersey Mining Co. to acquire a 50% interest in the Silver Strand silver mine located in the Coeur d’Alene Mining District.  We were unable to close the joint venture agreement as expected before September 30, 2008. The Company is in default under the terms of the option agreement, and does not have any short term prospects for raising the funds needed to complete these projects and has written off its deferred mineral property costs related to the project.
 
Under the terms of the joint venture agreement, we have agreed to share equally in the production and further development and exploration of the property.
 
On June 13, 2008, we entered into a share exchange agreement with Silverdale Mining Corp., a Nevada corporation, and the shareholders of Silverdale Mining Corp. The closing of the transactions contemplated in the share exchange agreement and the acquisition of all of the issued and outstanding common stock in the capital of Silverdale Mining Corp. occurred on July 24, 2008.  In accordance with the closing of the share exchange agreement, we issued 4,334,000 shares of our common stock to the former shareholders of Silverdale Mining Corp. in exchange for the acquisition, by our company, of all of the 4,334,000 issued and outstanding shares of Silverdale Mining Corp.  Silverdale Mining Corp. is now a wholly owned subsidiary of our company.
 
On September 8, 2008, we entered into a letter of intent with Gold Canyon Partners, LLP pursuant to which we have agreed to purchase a 100% interest in a mining property commonly known as the Cobalt Canyon Gold Project, in the Chief District, located in Lincoln County, Nevada. The acquisition contemplated by the letter of intent is subject to the fulfillment of certain conditions precedent, due diligence and the negotiation of a definitive agreement.  We have chosen not to complete the agreement and have forfeited the $15,000 initial payment.
 
On September 30, 2008, we entered into a share cancellation/return to treasury agreement with Greg Cowan, a former director and officer of our company. Pursuant to the agreement, Mr. Cowan agreed to the return and cancellation of 15,000,000 shares of our common stock that were held by him. We did not provide Mr. Cowan with any compensation for such cancellation.
 
Effective June 2, 2009, we entered into a share cancellation/return to treasury agreement with Jim MacKenzie wherein he agreed to the cancellation and return to treasury of 850,000 shares of our common stock. Subsequent to the stock cancellation, Mr. MacKenzie will hold 150,000 shares of our common stock.
 
On June 2, 2009, Mr. Greg Cowan, a former president, chief executive officer, secretary, treasurer and director of our company, transferred 5,000,000 restricted shares of our common stock to Mr. Lawrence Siccia, our current president, chief executive officer and director. Mr. Siccia purchased the shares from personal funds in the amount of $500.

In October 2010, Mr. Lawrence Siccia, a former president, chief executive officer, secretary, treasurer and director of our company, transferred 5,000,000 restricted shares of our common stock to Mr. Neil Kleinman, our current president, chief executive officer and director. Mr. Kleinman purchased the shares from personal funds in the amount of $2,500.

On May 16, 2011 our recently formed, wholly owned subsidiary, Silverstar Mining Canada, Inc., (“SMCI”) acquired three mining claims encompassing approximately 1,006 hectares in British Columbia, Canada.  In consideration for the transfer of the mining claims, we paid the transferor $10,000 and will issue the transferor two million shares of our common stock.

The mineral claims are located in the Caribou Mining District in east-central British Columbia, Canada.

Property Location and Access
There is a growing infrastructure in the region as more of its resources are being exploited by various sized peers and competitors in the area.  

The SMCI mineral tenures are located within 65 km northeast of Quesnel, British Columbia, in an area that in part has been logged and re-planted.  Access is by forestry road to the vicinity of the Willow River: the tenures lie both east and west of that river. The bridge across Willow River is located approximately 1250 metres upstream from the south boundary and a logging branch road follows the east side of Willow River.  The total area is 1006 hectares.

We have not conducted any feasibility studies on the mining claims.  However, contiguous and other properties in the immediate vicinity indicate deposits of gold, silver and copper.

In order to determine the commercial viability of the mining claims and commence operations,  a team of professionals is to be assembled to obtain further   detail of potential yield.  Independent consultants estimate that a work program should be done on its major fault structure and could be implemented for up to $150,000.  Initial work would be studying historical information on the area, the trend line and sampling.  The sampling analysis will direct management on subsequent investment of resources.  The sampling program can be achieved with a projected investment of $25,000 up to $75,000 depending on the success of early stage sampling and the amount of samples ultimately taken and evaluated.  A drilling program is estimated to cost roughly $500,000.

Employees
Neil Kleinman serves as our sole officer, director and employee. We presently conduct our business through agreements with consultants and arms-length third parties.
 
Results of Operations for the Three and Nine Months ended June 30, 2011
We have not generated any revenue since inception and are dependent upon obtaining financing to pursue our business activities. For these reasons, our auditors believe that there is substantial doubt that we will be able to continue as a going concern.
 
Until we can identify an acquisition candidate or acquire assets, we have attempted to minimize our expenses.  The single largest expense items are attributable to legal and accounting fees incurred in connection with our reporting obligations under the Securities Exchange Act.
 
For the three and nine months ended June 30, 2011 we incurred $8,288 and $11,347 in legal and accounting fees as compared to $11,143 and $30,092 during the corresponding periods in 2010.   Legal and accounting fees since Inception totaled $205,942.  These costs represent our single largest expense during these respective periods.  These fees were incurred in connection with the preparation of required reports with the Securities and Exchange Commission and legal fees associated with the acquisition of our mining claims.
 
For the three months ended June 30, 2011 we incurred $2,288 in bank charges and interest, $4,500 in management fees, $1,500 in rental costs, $750 in transfer agent fees and $133 in travel and entertainment.    For the three months ended June 30, 2010 we incurred $1,311 in bank charges and interest, $4,500 in management fees, $1,500 in transfer agent fees and $1,175 attributable to travel and entertainment.  For the nine months ended June 30, 2011 legal and accounting fees totaled $11,347, rent $13,500, consulting $5,576 and $4,500 in transfer agent fees.   During the nine months ended June 30, 2010 legal fees totaled $30,092, rent totaled $13,500 and management fees totaled $13,500.
 
Our expenses for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2011 were $17,459 and $38,819 as compared to $19,629 and $58,903 for the comparable period in 2010.  Total costs since Inception were $1,503,609.
 
For the three and nine months ended June 30, 2011, we recorded a net loss of $17,512 and $38,872 as compared to $19,629 and $58,903 in 2010.  Our Net Loss since Inception totaled $1,503,662.
 
Liquidity and Working Capital

Assets and Liabilities
At June 30, 2011,  we had cash of $697 compared to $1,907 at September 30, 2010.  At June 30,2011, we had current liabilities of $114,838 consisting of $18,240 in convertible debentures, $88,710 in demand notes and $7,888 in accounts payable.   This compares to current liabilities totaling $95,176 at September 30, 2011 consisting of $20,374 in accounts payable, $17,118 in convertible debentures, $35,184 in demand notes and $22,500 due to a related party.
 
At June 30, 2011, we had a working capital deficit of $114,141 as compared to a working capital deficit of $93,269 at September 30, 2010.   Unless we secure additional debt or equity financing, of which there can be no assurance, we will not be able to continue operations and you may lose your entire investment.  We currently do not have any arrangements in place for any future debt or equity financing.
 
Going Concern
Due to the uncertainty of our ability to meet our current operating and capital expenses, in their report on the annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended September 30, 2010, our independent auditors included an explanatory paragraph regarding concerns about our ability to continue as a going concern.
 
We anticipate that additional funding will be required in the form of debt or equity capital financing from the sale of our common stock.  At this time, we cannot provide investors with any assurance that we will be able to raise sufficient funding from the sale of our common stock or through debt to meet our obligations over the next twelve months. We do not have any arrangements in place for any future debt or equity financing.
 
Application of Critical Accounting Policies
The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.  Preparing financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, and expenses.  These estimates and assumptions are affected by management’s application of accounting policies.  We believe that understanding the basis and nature of the estimates and assumptions involved with the following aspects of our consolidated financial statements is critical to an understanding of our consolidated financial statements.
 
We regularly evaluate the accounting policies and estimates that we use to prepare our consolidated financial statements. In general, management's estimates are based on historical experience, on information from third party professionals, and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the facts and circumstances. Actual results could differ from those estimates made by management.
 
Significant accounting policies used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements are set forth in Note 2 to our consolidated financial statements.
 
 
 
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We are not currently a party to, or otherwise involved with, any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future material effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.

 
Item 3.Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure About Market Risk
 
 
Not applicable.
 
 
 Item 4.Controls and Procedures
 
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
 
Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer,   evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) and determined that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. The evaluation considered the procedures designed to ensure that the information required to be disclosed by us in reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and communicated to our management as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
 
Our internal control over financial reporting is not effective due to the following:

Neil Kleinman serves as our sole officer and director.  As such there is no segregation of functions, duties and responsibilities with respect to our cash and control over the disbursements  related thereto.

We do not believe that this weakness has had any impact on our financial reporting and the control environment. Our management does not have any current plans to remediate the weakness as we believe in order to remediate the weakness, we will need to raise capital hire additional accounting personal. We believe the cost to hire additional accounting personal will be approximately $30,000 per year.

Accordingly, management believes, based on its knowledge, that (1) this report does not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material face necessary to make the statements made not misleading with respect to the period covered by this report, and (2) the financial statements, and other financial information included in this report, fairly present in all material respects our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows for the years and periods then ended.
 
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
 
During the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, there was no change in our internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(d) and 13d-15(d) under the Exchange Act) that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
 
Inherent Limitations of Disclosure Controls and Internal Controls over Financial Reporting
 
Because of its inherent limitations, internal controls over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Projections of any evaluation or effectiveness to future periods are subject to risks that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
 
 
 
 
PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
 
 
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
 
We know of no material, active or pending legal proceedings against our company, nor are we involved as a plaintiff in any material proceeding or pending litigation. There are no proceedings in which any of our directors, officers or affiliates, or any registered or beneficial shareholder, is an adverse party or has a material interest adverse to our interest.
 
Item 1A.   Risk Factors
 
Much of the information included in this quarterly report includes or is based upon estimates, projections or other “forward looking statements”. Such forward looking statements include any projections and estimates made by us and our management in connection with our business operations. While these forward-looking statements, and any assumptions upon which they are based, are made in good faith and reflect our current judgment regarding the direction of our business, actual results will almost always vary, sometimes materially, from any estimates, predictions, projections, assumptions or other future performance suggested herein.
 
Such estimates, projections or other “forward looking statements” involve various risks and uncertainties as outlined below. We caution the reader that important factors in some cases have affected and, in the future, could materially affect actual results and cause actual results to differ materially from the results expressed in any such estimates, projections or other “forward looking statements”.
 
Our securities are highly speculative and involve a high degree of risk, including among other items the risk factors described in our annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2010, filed on January 13, 2011. You should carefully consider those risk factors and other information in our annual report on Form 10-K and this quarterly report before deciding to invest in our securities.

Risks related to our business operations:

We have not generated revenues from operations. We have a history of losses and losses are likely to continue in the future.

We have incurred significant losses in the past and we will likely continue to incur losses in the future unless our drilling program proves successful. Even if drilling program is successful, there can be no assurance that we will be able to commercially exploit these resources, generate further revenues or generate sufficient revenues to operate profitably.
 
We may not be able to generate revenue sufficient to maintain operations
 
We have incurred significant losses since inception and there can be no assurance that we will be able to reverse this trend. Even if we are able to successfully identify commercially exploitable gold and silver reserves, there is no assurance that we will have sufficient financing to exploit these reserves, generate revenues or find a willing buyer for the properties.

Exploration for economic deposits of gold and silver is speculative.

 Our business is very speculative since there is generally no way to recover any of the funds expended on exploration unless the existence of commercially exploitable reserves are established and the Company can exploit those reserves by either commencing drilling operations, selling or leasing its interest in the property, or entering into a joint venture with a larger company that can further develop the property. Unless we can establish and exploit reserves before our funds are exhausted, we will have to discontinue operations, which could make our stock valueless.

The gold and silver industry is highly competitive and the success and future growth of our business depend upon our ability to remain competitive in identifying and developing properties with sufficient reserves for economic exploitation.

The gold and silver industry is highly competitive and fragmented with limited barriers to entry, especially at the exploratory stages. We compete in national, regional and local markets with large multi-national corporations and against start-up operators hoping to identify precious metals. Some of our competitors have significantly greater financial resources than we do. This puts us at a competitive disadvantage if we choose to further exploit drilling opportunities.

Our management has no experience in mining operations.

Our current management has never been involved in the exploration or mining business.   As such, there is substantial doubt whether management has the expertise to effectively run our business and implement our business plan.  As such, we may have to retain additional officers or board members who have experience in the mining sector.   Alternatively, we will have to rely on consultants or other third party suppliers.   Reliance on outside consultants will require the expenditure of significant sums of money which we do not have.  As such, the successful launch of an exploratory drilling program remains in doubt.

We will require additional financing to continue our operations.
 
We will require significant working capital to undertake our exploration program.   There can be no assurance that we will be able to secure additional funding to meet our objectives or if we are able to identify funding sources, that the funding will be available on terms acceptable to the Company. Should this occur, we will have to significantly reduce our drilling and mining programs.    

We may not identify proven reserves to develop any of our properties and our estimates may be inaccurate.

There is no certainty that any expenditures made in our exploration program will result in discoveries of commercially recoverable quantities of gold or silver.   Most exploration projects do not result in the discovery of commercially extractable deposits of gold or silver and no assurance can be given that any particular level of recovery will in fact be realized or that any identified leasehold interest will ever qualify to be commercially developed. Estimates of reserves, deposits and production costs can also be affected by such factors as environmental regulations and requirements, weather, unexpected or unknown results when we re-enter a well, environmental factors, unforeseen technical difficulties, unusual or unexpected geological formations and work interruptions. Material changes in estimated reserves, exploration and mining costs may affect the economic viability of any project.

 
 
 
We have no proven reserves.

Our leasehold interests are without known bodies (reserves) of commercial gold, silver or other base metals.  Development of these properties will follow only upon obtaining satisfactory exploration results. The long-term profitability of the Company’s operations will be in part directly related to the cost and success of its exploration and mining programs.  Mining for gold and silver and other base metals is a highly speculative business, involving a high degree of risk. Few properties which are explored are ultimately developed into producing mines.  There is no assurance that our exploration program will result in any discoveries of commercial quantities of gold or silver.   There is also no assurance that, even if commercial quantities of gold or silver are discovered, a mine can be brought into commercial production. Production/discovery of gold and silver is dependent upon a number of factors, not the least of which is the technical skill of the exploration personnel involved. The commercial viability of a mine is also dependent upon a number of factors, many of which are beyond the Company’s control, such as worldwide economy, the price of gold and silver, government regulations, including regulations relating to royalties, allowable production and environmental protection.

During our operations we may experience certain unanticipated conditions that may arise or unexpected or unusual events may occur, including fires, floods, or earthquakes. It is not always possible to fully insure against such risks and we may decide not to take out insurance against such risks as a result of high premiums or for other reasons. Should such liabilities arise, they may reduce or eliminate any future profitability and may result in a decline in the value of the securities of the Company.

 We have no history as a company engaged in the mining business.

We have no history of earnings or cash flow from mining activities.  If we identify proven reserves and  are able to proceed to production, commercial viability will be affected by factors that are beyond our control such as the particular attributes of the deposit, the fluctuation in the prices of gold and silver, the cost of construction and operating a mining operation,  the availability of economic sources for energy, government regulations including regulations relating to prices, royalties, restrictions on production, quotas on exploration and costs of protecting the environment.

 Our estimates of resources are subject to uncertainty.

 Estimates of resources are subject to considerable uncertainty. Such estimates are arrived at using standard acceptable geological techniques, and are based on the interpretations of geological data obtained from drill holes and other sampling techniques. Engineers use feasibility studies to derive estimates of cash operating costs based on anticipated tonnage and grades of ore to be mined and processed, the predicted configuration of the ore bodies, expected recovery rates of metal from ore, comparable facility and operating costs and other factors. Actual cash operating costs and economic returns on projects may differ significantly from the original estimates, primarily due to fluctuations in the current prices of metal commodities extracted from the deposits, changes in fuel costs, labor rates, changes in permit requirements, and unforeseen variations in the characteristics of the ore body. Due to the presence of these factors, there is no assurance that any geological reports will accurately reflect actual quantities of gold or silver  that can be economically processed and mined by us.

 We face many operating hazards.

The development and operation of a mining property involves many risks, which even a combination of experience, knowledge and careful evaluation may not be able to overcome. These risks include, among other things, ground fall, flooding, environmental hazards and the discharge of toxic chemicals, explosions and other accidents. Such occurrences may result in work stoppages, delays in production, increased production costs, damage to or destruction of mines and other producing facilities, injury or loss of life, damage to property, environmental damage and possible legal liability for such damages.

We will be subject to compliance with government regulation that may increase the anticipated cost of those operations.
 
There are significant governmental regulations that materially restrict mineral property operations.  We may be required to obtain work permits, post bonds and perform remediation work for any physical disturbance to the land, in order to comply with these regulations.  Permits and regulations will control all aspects of our exploration program. Examples of regulatory requirements include:
 
(a)Water discharge will have to meet drinking water standards;
(b) Dust generation will have to be minimal or otherwise re-mediated;
(c) Dumping of material on the surface will have to be re-contoured and re-vegetated with natural vegetation;
(d) An assessment of all material to be left on the surface will need to be environmentally benign;
(e) Ground water will have to be monitored for any potential contaminants;
(f) The socio-economic impact of our operation of the Property will have to be evaluated and, if deemed negative, will have to be re-mediated; and
(g) There may have to be an impact report of the work on the local fauna and flora, including a study of potentially endangered species.

We do not maintain liability insurance.

We do not maintain liability insurance. As such, if we are found liable for any action, whether intentional or unintentional, we will be required to satisfy the liability with our own funds.  Currently we have nominal assets and any monetary award would likely result in the close of our operations.  Even assuming a significant increase in our assets and if we secure liability insurance, the amount of the coverage may be insufficient to insure against any award.   Since the Company may not be able, or may elect not to insure, this may result in a material adverse change in the Company’s financial position. The nature of these risks is such that liabilities may exceed policy limits, in which event the Company would incur substantial uninsured losses.

We face fluctuating gold and silver prices.
 
The price of gold and silver has experienced significant price movements over short periods of time and is affected by numerous factors beyond our control, including international economic and political trends, expectations of inflation, currency exchange fluctuations (including, the U.S. dollar relative to other currencies) interest rates, global or regional consumption patterns, speculative activities and increases in production due to improved exploration and production methods. The supply of and demand for gold and silver are affected by various factors, including political events, economic conditions and production costs in major producing regions.
 
 
 
Environmental and Occupational Regulations will impact our operations.

We are subject to various federal, provincial, and local international laws and regulations concerning occupational safety and health as well as the discharge of materials into, and the protection of, the environment. Environmental laws and regulations relate to, among other things:
· assessing the environmental impact of our exploration and mining  activities;
· the generation, storage, transportation and disposal of waste materials;
· the emission of certain gases into the atmosphere;
· the monitoring, abandonment, reclamation and remediation of  our mining claims, including sites of former operations; and
· the development of emergency response and contingency plans.

The costs of environmental protection and safety and health compliance are significant.  Compliance with environmental, safety and health initiatives can be costly.  There is no assurance that we will be able to comply with these regulations.  If we cannot comply with these regulations, we will be forced to cease all operations in which case you will lose your entire investment.  We cannot predict with any reasonable degree of certainty our future exposure concerning such matters.

Public policy, which includes laws, rules and regulations, can change.

Our operations are generally subject to federal and provincial rules and regulations. In addition, we are also subject to the laws and regulations of local governments. Pursuant to public policy changes, numerous government departments and agencies have issued extensive rules and regulations binding on the mining industry and its individual members, some of which carry substantial penalties for failure to comply. Changes in such public policy have affected, and at times in the future could affect, our operations. Political developments can restrict production levels, enact price controls, change environmental protection requirements, and increase taxes, royalties and other amounts payable to governments or governmental agencies. Existing laws and regulations can also require us to incur substantial costs to maintain regulatory compliance. Our operating and other compliance costs could increase further if existing laws and regulations are revised or reinterpreted or if new laws and regulations become applicable to our operations. Although we are unable to predict changes to existing laws and regulations, such changes could significantly impact our profitability, financial condition and liquidity, particularly changes related to hydraulic fracturing, income taxes and climate change as discussed below.

Drilling operations are hazardous, raise environmental concerns and raise insurance risks.

Drilling operations are by their nature subject to a variety of risks, such as, flooding, environmental hazards, the discharge of toxic chemicals and other hazards. Such occurrences may delay development or production, increase production costs or result in a liability. We may not be able to insure fully or at all against such risks, due to political or other reasons, or we may decide not to take out insurance against such risks as a result of high premiums or other reasons. We intend to conduct our business in a way that safeguards public health and the environment and in compliance with applicable laws and regulations. Environmental hazards may exist on properties in which we hold an interest which are unknown to us and may have been caused by prior owners. Changes to drilling and mining laws and regulations could require additional capital expenditures and increase operating and/or reclamation costs. Although we are unable to predict what additional legislation, if any, might be proposed or enacted, additional regulatory requirements could render certain operations uneconomic.

 If we are unable to obtain all of our required governmental permits, our operations could be negatively impacted.

 Our future operations, including exploration and development activities, required permits from various governmental authorities. Such operations are and will be governed by laws and regulations governing prospecting, development,   production, exports, taxes, labor standards, occupational health, waste disposal, toxic substances, land use, environmental protection, mine safety and other matters. There can be no assurance that we will be able to acquire all required licenses or permits or to maintain continued operations at our properties.

We are subject to numerous environmental and other regulatory requirements.

All phases of drilling and exploration operations are subject to governmental regulation including environmental regulation. Environmental legislation is becoming stricter, with increased fines and penalties for non-compliance, more stringent environmental assessments of proposed projects and heightened responsibility for companies and their officers, directors and employees. There can be no assurance that possible future changes in environmental regulation will not adversely affect our operations. As well, environmental hazards may exist on a property in which we hold an interest that was caused by previous or existing owners or operators of the properties and of which the Company is not aware at present.

Government approvals and permits are required to be maintained in connection with our drilling and exploration activities.  We will require permits for our operations and there is no assurance that delays will not occur in connection with obtaining all necessary renewals of such permits for the existing operations or additional permits for any possible future changes to the Company’s operations, including any proposed capital improvement programs. Failure to comply with applicable laws, regulations and permitting requirements may result in enforcement actions there under, including orders issued by regulatory or judicial authorities causing operations to cease or be curtailed, and may include corrective measures requiring capital expenditures, installation of additional equipment, or remedial actions. Parties engaged in drilling operations may be required to compensate those suffering loss or damage by reason of our activities and may be liable for civil or criminal fines or penalties imposed for violations of applicable laws or regulations. Amendments to current laws, regulations and permitting requirements, or more stringent application of existing laws, may have a material adverse impact on the Company resulting in increased capital expenditures or production costs, reduced levels of production at producing properties or abandonment or delays in development of properties.

There is no assurance that there will not be title or boundary disputes.

Although we have investigated the right to explore and exploit our properties and obtained records from government offices, this should not be construed as a guarantee of title. Other parties may dispute the title to any of our properties or that any property may be subject to prior unregistered agreements and transfers.  The title may be affected by undetected encumbrances or defects or governmental actions. Should this occur, we face significant delays, costs and the possible loss of any investments or commitment of capital.

Local infrastructure may impact our exploration activities and results of operations.

Our activities depend, to one degree or another, on adequate infrastructure. Reliable roads, bridges and power and water supplies are important determinants that affect capital and operating costs. Unusual or infrequent weather phenomena, sabotage or government or other interference in the maintenance or provision of such infrastructure could adversely affect the activities and profitability of the Company.

 
 
 
Because of the speculative nature of exploring and/or mining for gold and silver, there is significant risks that our business will fail.

 Gold and silver exploration is extremely risky. We cannot provide any assurances that our activities will result in commercially exploitable reserves of gold and silver.  Exploration for gold and silver is a speculative venture necessarily involving substantial risk. Any expenditure that we make may not result in the discovery of commercially exploitable reserves.
 
The market for gold and silver is volatile.  This will have a direct impact on the Company’s revenues (if any) and profits (if any) and will probably have an adverse affect on our ongoing operations.

 The price of both gold and silver has fluctuated significantly over the past few years. This has contributed to the renewed interest in gold and silver exploration. However, in the event that the price of either gold or silver falls, the interest in exploratory ventures may decline and the value of the Company’s business could be adversely affected.

We are in competition with companies that are larger, more established and better capitalized than we are.

Many of our potential competitors have:
 
 
greater financial and technical resources;
 
 
longer operating histories and greater experience in gold and silver mining
 
 

We may be exposed to potential risks relating to our internal control over financial reporting and our ability to have those controls remediated timely.

Pursuant to rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) implemented pursuant to Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, the independent registered public accounting firm auditing a public company’s financial statements must attest to and report on the operating effectiveness of that public company’s internal control over financial reporting.

Pursuant to Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, as amended by SEC Release 33-8934 on June 26, 2008, we are required to include in our annual reports our assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of the end of our fiscal years.  Furthermore, our independent registered public accounting firm will be required to report separately on whether it believes that we have maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting.  We have not yet completed any assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting.  We expect to incur additional expenses and diversion of our management’s time as a result of performing the system and process evaluation, testing and remediation required in order to comply with our management certification and auditor attestation requirements.

 In the event we identify control deficiencies that we cannot remedy in a timely manner, or if we are unable to receive an unqualified attestation report from our independent registered public accounting firm with respect to our internal control over financial reporting, investors and others may lose confidence in the reliability of our financial statements, and the trading price of our common stock, if a market ever develops, and our ability to obtain any necessary financing could suffer.

Our officers have no experience in managing a public company.

Our officers have no previous experience in managing a public company, and we do not have any employees to segregate responsibilities and may be unable to afford increasing our staff or engaging outside consultants or professionals to overcome our lack of employees.  During the course of our operations, we may identify other deficiencies that we may not be able to remedy in time to satisfy the requirements imposed by the Sarbanes-Oxley Act for compliance with that Section 404.  In addition, if we fail to achieve and maintain the adequacy of our internal controls, as such requirements are modified, supplemented or amended from time to time, we may not be able to ensure that we can conclude on an ongoing basis that we have effective internal controls over financial reporting in accordance with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act.  Moreover, effective internal controls, particularly those related to revenue recognition, are necessary for us to produce reliable financial reports and are important to help prevent financial fraud.  If we cannot provide reliable financial reports or prevent fraud, our business and operating results could be harmed, investors could lose confidence in our reported financial information, and the trading price of our common stock, if a market for our common stock develops, could drop significantly.

 Our officers do not have employment agreements with us and could cease working for us at any time, causing us to cease our operations.

Our officers do not have employment agreements (written or verbal) with us.  In the absence of such employment agreements with restrictive covenants on the part of our officers, our officers could leave us at any time or commence working for a competitive business.  Furthermore, applicable law under which we operate may cast substantial doubt on the enforceability of any restrictive covenants that we may obtain from our officers in the future.  Accordingly, the continued services of our officers cannot be assured.  If our officers were to cease working for us, we may have to cease operations.

 Risks Related to Our Common Stock

The following risks are currently applicable to Silverstar and will remain applicable to the combined company upon completion of the Transaction.
 
Our stock price may be volatile.
 
The market price of our common stock has been volatile. We believe investors should expect continued volatility in our stock price. Such volatility may make it difficult or impossible for you to obtain a favorable selling price for our shares.
 
We have a large number of authorized but unissued shares of our common stock.
 
We have a large number of authorized but unissued shares of common stock, which our management may issue without further stockholder approval, thereby causing dilution of your holdings of our common stock. Our management will continue to have broad discretion to issue shares of our common stock in a range of transactions, including capital-raising transactions, mergers and acquisitions and in other transactions, without obtaining stockholder approval, unless stockholder approval is required. If our management determines to issue shares of our common stock from the large pool of authorized but unissued shares for any purpose in the future, your ownership position would be diluted without your further ability to vote on that transaction.
 
 
 
 
Shares of our common stock may continue to be subject to price volatility and illiquidity because our shares may continue to be thinly traded and may never become eligible for trading on a national securities exchange.
 
While we may at some point be able to meet the requirements necessary for our common stock to be listed on a national securities exchange, we cannot assure you that we will ever achieve a listing of our common stock on a national securities exchange. Our shares are currently only eligible for quotation on the Over-The-Counter Bulletin Board, which is not an exchange. Initial listing on a national securities exchange is subject to a variety of requirements, including minimum trading price and minimum public “float” requirements, and could also be affected by the general skepticism of such markets concerning companies that are the result of mergers with inactive publicly-held companies. There are also continuing eligibility requirements for companies listed on public trading markets. If we are unable to satisfy the initial or continuing eligibility requirements of any such market, then our stock may not be listed or could be delisted. This could result in a lower trading price for our common stock and may limit your ability to sell your shares, any of which could result in you losing some or all of your investment.

The market valuation of our business may fluctuate due to factors beyond our control and the value of your investment may fluctuate correspondingly.
 
The market valuation of emerging growth companies, such as us, frequently fluctuate due to factors unrelated to the past or present operating performance of such companies.  Our market valuation may fluctuate significantly in response to a number of factors, many of which are beyond our control, including:
· changes in securities analysts’ estimates of our financial performance, although there are currently no analysts covering our stock;
· fluctuations in stock market prices and volumes, particularly among securities of emerging growth companies;
· changes in market valuations of similar companies;
· announcements by us or our competitors of significant contracts, new technologies, acquisitions, commercial relationships, joint ventures or 
   capital commitments;
· variations in our quarterly operating results;
· fluctuations in related commodities prices; and
· additions or departures of key personnel.

As a result, the value of your investment in us may fluctuate.
 
 Investors should not look to dividends as a source of income.
 
In the interest of reinvesting initial profits back into our business, we do not intend to pay cash dividends in the foreseeable future.  Consequently, any economic return will initially be derived, if at all, from appreciation in the fair market value of our stock, and not as a result of dividend payments.

Our common stock may be subject to penny stock regulations which may make it difficult for investors to sell their stock.

The Securities and Exchange Commission has adopted rules that regulate broker-dealer practices in connection with transactions in “penny stocks”.  Penny stocks generally are equity securities with a price of less than $5.00 (other than securities registered on certain national securities exchanges or quoted on the NASDAQ system, provided that current price and volume information with respect to transactions in such securities is provided by the exchange or system).  The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from those rules, deliver a standardized risk disclosure document prepared by the Commission, which specifies information about penny stocks and the nature and significance of risks of the penny stock market.  The broker-dealer also must provide the customer with bid and offer quotations for the penny stock, the compensation of the broker-dealer and salesperson in the transaction, and monthly account statements indicating the market value of each penny stock held in the customer's account.  In addition, the penny stock rules require that, prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from those rules, the broker-dealer must make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser's written agreement to the transaction.  These disclosure requirements may have the effect of reducing the trading activity in the secondary market for a stock that becomes subject to the penny stock rules.  If our common stock becomes subject to the penny stock rules, holders of our shares may have difficulty selling those shares.
