In addition, the foregoing factors may affect generally our business, results of operations and financial position. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date the statement was made. We do not undertake and specifically decline any obligation to update any forward-looking statements.

Our Ability To Continue as a Going Concern Our independent registered public accounting firm has issued its report dated April 13, 2012, in connection with the audit of our consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2011, that included an explanatory paragraph describing the existence of conditions that raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as of September 30, 2012 have been prepared under the assumption that we will continue as a going concern. Specifically, Note 11 of our unaudited financial statement for the quarter ended September 30, 2012 addresses the issue of our ability to continue as a going concern. If we are not able to continue as a going concern, it is likely that holders of our common stock will lose all of their investment. Our financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Overview We are a development stage company positioned to begin launch and license of our patented technologies in 2012. We were incorporated as a Nevada corporation on February 28, 2005 to reincorporate and re-domesticate two existing North Carolina entities; Revolutionary Concepts, Inc. and DVMS, LLC. We are engaged in the development of smart camera technologies that interface with smart handheld devices enabling remote monitoring.

Our efforts to date have been devoted to securing the intellectual framework around several key technologies and applications related to remote video monitoring. Advances in wireless technologies combined with increased data speed rates permits a very sophisticated and new means of monitoring, security and entry management.

We have branded is new smart technology "EyeTalk®". EyeTalk® is a first generation smart camera technology that allows interactive two-way communication between a smart phone or other handheld device.

Unlike many IP cameras that simply produce and transmit an image, the EyeTalk® smart camera technology has embedded capabilities that distinguish it as a significant technological advancement over traditional camera systems.

In July of 2011, we engaged SIS Development Inc. to direct the development of this state of the art system. SIS Development, Inc. offers highly specialized, wing-to-wing commercial OEM product development services. SIS Development has an extensive track record of high volume product and software successes in Fortune 100 and startup environments alike. The initial product launch will be in the entry management space for both residential and commercial uses, with a medical application as an immediate spin-off.

We currently hold seven (7) patents related to the use of wireless technology in key market segments. The seven patents position Revolutionary Concepts as a key player in the wireless space and introduce a new smart technology in an area that is virtually untapped. Five of the patents were issued in the second quarter of 2012.

The five new patents collectively include nine independent claims comprised of seven system claims and two method claims.

Of the seven independent system claims, three are directed to communications and monitoring systems; three are directed to detection and viewing systems; and one is directed to an audio-video communication system. The claims directed to the communications and monitoring systems are claims 1, 19, and 20 of USPN 8,164,614. The claims directed to the detection and viewing systems are claims 1, 19, and 20 of USPN 8,144,184. The claims directed to the audio-video communication system is claim 1 of USPN 8,154,581.

Of the two independent method claims, one is directed to a method for audio-video communications; and the other is directed to a method for receiving a person at an entrance. The independent claim directed to the audio-video communications method is claim 1 of USPN 8,144,183; and the independent claim directed to the method for receiving a person at an entrance is claim 1 of USPN 8,139,098.

Generally speaking, if any of these claims describe a method that is performed by a third party, or describe a system of a third party, then that third-party method or system infringes such claim.

Our management plans to implement a variety of commercialization strategies ranging from development to licensing to generate revenue and to capitalize on the opportunities made possible by the wave of new wireless products in the market place.

We have funded development through three private offerings in 2005, 2007 and 2009. We have also borrowed $307,500 from four non-related parties at 4% interest to fund ongoing operations, and new patent applications. These promissory notes began to become due in October 2008 and were repaid in November 2008 by issuing 630,811 shares of restricted common stock from authorized shares.

In July and August 2009, we issued two notes payable in the total amount of $20,000. The two notes were later combined at the note holder's request into one note. The note bears interest at a rate of 10%. Principal and interest were due in May 2010. In 2009, our Board of Directors agreed to guarantee a personal loan to the President of the Company, Mr. Ron Carte, of $75,000 with interest of 10%, by a shareholder. The note became due in November 2010. On October 5, 2010, we received notice that a claim for judgment had been filed in Mecklenburg County by a shareholder for the note that was in default as of May 2010. On January 7, 2011, the note holder amended the filing to include the personal loan. The amount of the claim is $100,996, plus interest at 18% and legal costs. On the 10 th day of May 2011, a summary judgment was entered on behalf of the plaintiff against Mr. Carter and our company. On the 4th day of August 2011, we reached an agreement with a third party to negotiate and acquire the judgment award and to agree to a convertible note from us for their services. The total value of the convertible note is $144,067 with no interest, of which we have received a promissory note from Mr. Carter for $112,663for the part of the judgment, interest and fees that was from the personal promissory note that we guaranteed In July 2010, we partnered with US Financial and Rainco Industries to consult in Investor Relations, introduction to institutional investors, assist with mergers and acquisitions, and to help develop a strategy to fund its growth. As a result of this partnership, we have resolved additional debt obligations, are now trading on both the US and Frankfurt stock exchanges, and are also now listed with Standards and Poors. In November 2011, we terminated our association with US Financial but retained the relationship with Rainco Industries.

(15) Table of Contents Introduction to EyeTalk® We are the patent holder of a wireless smart camera technology, branded EyeTalk®. EyeTalk® represents a very disruptive technology that integrates into an industry of new smart devices…. an industry on pace to establish a new era in everyday life across all lines.

From Wire Industry News - February 2012; "By most standards, the iPhone is considered by a lot of people to be one of the most successful products in business history, and there are many reasons why the majority of people and especially iPhone users think so.

So far, about 200 million iPhones have been sold since it was introduced in the spring of 2007, and 37 million of them in the last three months of 2011 alone.

And make no mistake-- the iPhone is a huge revenue generator! Just last quarter, it contributed to over $24.39 billion in revenue for the fruity company from Cupertino, greater than the $20.9 billion Microsoft made in all of its many businesses." Apple also produces the iPad. iPad is a line of tablet computers designed, developed and marketed by Apple Inc., primarily as a platform for audio-visual media Tech Crunch - March 2012 "Following Apple's announcement yesterday of the new iPad's record weekend, which saw 3 million devices sold in three days, analysts are upping their predictions for the tablet's market share growth over the course of the year. In a note to investors, Gene Munster of Piper Jaffray says the firm is now forecasting as many as 66 million sales of the new device in 2012, up from the earlier prediction of 60 million. Meanwhile, Shaw Wu of Sterne Agee is now predicting 60 million, up from 55 million. Regardless of the final outcome, the bottom line impact the device will have on the market was summed up in Munster's bullish note: "we believe the unprecedented ramp of the iPad over the past year is evidence that the tablet market will be measurably larger than the PC market," he said. (emphasis added) Our Revolutionary Concepts EyeTalk® technology represents a camera system with embedded intelligence. Moving beyond the typical take a picture, take a video and send it technology, the EyeTalk® technology will activate and engage. The capabilities of the EyeTalk® system go beyond the ability to offer two way communication by incorporating an embedded processor that will ultimately be able to communicate and interpret while providing video surveillance and remote monitoring capabilities.

Wireless cameras, wireless communication devices such as smart phones and hand held devices represent the ultimate marriage of wireless technologies. Until we discover how to actually teleport people, wireless cameras and mobile monitors will allow people to literally be in two places at once.

Management believes our patent represents a very significant asset and advancement in camera technology.

The EyeTalk® technology is primarily a software platform with a hardware component of an external smart camera deployed at a chosen location. The system offers two-way communication and it streams video to designated PC or handheld devices such as PDA's, smart phones or other smart devices. . The software interface allows the system to offer preprogrammed messages, greetings, commands, etc. The software maintains information captured by the EyeTalk® system. Access to the information may be achieved via a Personal Data Assistant (PDA), Handheld Computer (HC), Smart phone, or other compatible device. The EyeTalk® software platform will be able to communicate with many of the smartphone and other devices that are currently available in the market place.

As a residential application, the EyeTalk® system provides a very effective and efficient means of entry management allowing seamless communication to and from a location to the owner to interact remotely with anyone who approaches with the benefit of audio, video and data communication. The system utilizes new technology to synergistically improve communication, security, convenience, messaging, and manage deliveries and guest.

According to USBX (US Business Exchange), "iSuppli, a respected technology market research firm, announced this quarter that they project IP video surveillance camera revenue to grow to more than $9.0 billion by 2011, a compound annual growth rate of 13.2%". Declining cost of new surveillance technology have improved the viability of enhanced security systems while boosting the affordability and demand for basic security systems among families in the middle to lower-middle income strata of society." Management believes that the point of greatest significance is not the fact that our plans to participate in this space, but the fact that our company owns IP rights to the much anticipated wireless activity in the space.

Our company management has a careful eye on the transition many traditional security companies are attempting to make to a more practical video solution.

Fortunately for us, our company owns the rights to the use of wireless cameras and their interface with wireless handheld devices.

The EyeTalk® system also records and archives data, video and audio records. The system provides a centralized control system using a user-friendly application with a means for storing digital images and provides enhanced security features.

We also recognize that we have entered an era where cellphone applications are just a matter of every day activity. An "AP" that offers individuals the ability to manage and monitor locations of interest is both very marketable and necessary.

Our management expects the EyeTalk® technology to provide three primary benefits: Protection - EyeTalk® as a standalone system will provide a much safer platform because of its preemptive capabilities, or the EyeTalk® system may augment current residential and commercial security systems.

Monitoring - EyeTalk® may allow the user to better facilitate the task of entry management in non-threatening circumstances, such as latch key school children, and deliveries allowing the user to maintain better control and understanding of what is going on at any given location or property at any given time.

Convenience - EyeTalk® will add convenience to home and business owners, by providing a more responsive and efficient means of responding to, screening, and monitoring activity at a given location. Deliveries and service appointments can be better managed with a system such as EyeTalk®.

For all intents and purposes, we contend that traditional security and alarm services are ineffective, inefficient and costly. Across the country, in our belief, municipalities report false alarms at a rate exceeding 90%. The response time between an event and police arrival can be much too long. EyeTalk® represents a proactive response rather than a reactive one.

To insure the highest quality and product reliability, we entered into a development agreement with SIS Development to produce the initial EyeTalk® system. We are committed to producing a very high quality, reliable and sophisticated system however the first generation of the EyeTalk®technology will not have all of the feature sets intended for future models, and will simply serve as the company's initial launch and introduction.

SIS Development, Inc. offers highly specialized, wing-to-wing commercial OEM product development services. SIS has managed formidable, leading-edge design teams shipping millions of products a year and has an extensive track record of high volume product and software successes in Fortune 100 and startup environments alike.

The President of SIS Development is Richard Kramer. Prior to founding SIS Development, Inc. and Security Industry Services, Inc., Richard Kramer served as General Manager-Technology and Vice President, Engineering at General Electric's GE Security division, where he led a progressive 250+ person organization with more than $500M per year in revenue. He was responsible for managing 16 groups in 11 geographically dispersed locations, providing advanced Network, Software, Wireless, Enterprise/Commercial/Residential/Real Estate Solutions for the video surveillance (system software, IP solutions, communications, cameras, recorders, PTZs, video recognition technology), life safety (central station software, intrusion systems, software and sensors), and key control/real estate system software/product markets.

The EyeTalk® product development is in very capable and competent hands.

Needless to say, we are thrilled to have SIS Development as a part of our team.

(16) Table of Contents INDUSTRY Security industry stats from IMS Research by Geoff Kohl First up is 2009.

In the Americas, here's how differing industries compared in a rough financial year. The semiconductor market was down 30%; industrial automation was down 15%; vehicle production was down 33% and consumer technology was down 6%. Despite those significant downturns in many major industries, the electronic security industry was down only 0.2%. Basically, that means our industry stayed flat during 2009.

Also in 2009, IMS saw network video up 25% and analog video down 7%. They saw a terrible year for analytics companies. While analytics was having trouble, megapixel video surveillance had a good year, even as HD emerged as a potential format of choice. Megapixel could even outpace "standard resolution" IP video usage by 2012 or 2013 based on what IMS saw in 2009.

Now to the future...

In 2013, in the Americas, video surveillance is going to be 43% of the total physical security systems market; that means a huge increase in terms of video's role in the overall market. Fire will be 20% (that's down from current market share per IMS); intrusion will be 11.2% (also down in overall market share); and access control will be 7.8% (again, that's down in overall market share -- a loss chiefly attributed video's strong growth rather than any failing in the access control market).

In 2010 (since that's the year we're dealing with now), IMS is forecasting a large number of mergers and acquisitions, which they think will happen because the capital funding for such purchase is finally coming back. They're expecting 2% growth in North America for security products as a whole, a growth number that pales in comparison to a 15.2% growth forecast for security products in China/India. While North America isn't going to see the banner year that China and India will see, it certainly is better than what IMS is forecasting for Europe -- which is a -4.8% decline in overall revenues attributed to the sale of security products.*" *Article not incorporated by reference.

The tipping point for when IP video takes over analog video in sales is going to be pushed back a year thanks to the bad economy of 2009; now it is forecasted to be 2013 or 2014 when that transition happens.

How to Capitalize on the Fastest Growing Trend in Residential Security By Jay Kenny - Feb 03, 2012 "Security dealers and integrators are recognizing that consumers increasingly rely on smartphones, tablets and other mobile devices to control home security, automation and energy management services. Alarm.com, a provider of interactive security solutions, has evidence to support this trend.

This shift in consumer behavior is driven both by the explosive adoption of mobile devices and the availability of dynamic apps and services for end users to unlock additional value from their security system. Usage trends are not limited to monitoring security events that occur in the home, but also extend to a range of relevant day-to-day interactive services such as receiving motion-triggered video clips when kids arrive home from school, alerts when cabinets are accessed, or the ability to remotely adjust thermostats, lights and door lock settings. It is a behavioral change that presents a new opportunity and should not be lost on security dealers and integrators. Mobile connection to the security system has proven to be a successful way to improve retention of existing customers, drive new customer acquisition, deliver additional revenue-generating services, and differentiate a product offering as new entrants hit the market.*" *Article not incorporated by reference.

EyeTalk® as stated previously represents a technology with embedded intelligence. This one key feature that we term smart camera technology, combined with smart phone technology is a very powerful and compelling combination of technologies. A key reason we define EyeTalk® a "disruptive technology".

Mobile apps help close sales - Increasingly, feedback from Alarm.com partners is that one of the most powerful sales tactics is to show interactive system capabilities and features on a mobile device such as an iPhone, iPad or Android smartphone. This "mobile-first" approach in the sales cycle is more effective than showing mobile apps as a "nice-to-have" among a list of broader system features. We believe that once prospective customers see how easy and convenient it is to use a free app to arm the system, adjust the lights or watch live video of their property, their perceived value increases dramatically and distances the product offering from that of competitors.

Mobile services keep customers "sticky" - In addition to helping dealers close more sales, the mobile app significantly drives day-to-day use of the system, in turn increasing customer stickiness and reducing customer attrition. In fact, analysis conducted by Alarm.com in 2011 confirmed a direct correlation between a consumer's consistent interaction with their interactive security system and reduced attrition. Through an independent third party analysis, it was proven that customers with interactive accounts stay on longer than traditional security customers and those who are actively logging into their accounts via the Alarm.com website or mobile app attrite even less.

Mobile apps help meet rising consumer expectations - Current mobile trending shows people are not just becoming more comfortable with technology, but that they prefer the convenience of the mobile app to monitor and control home security system settings. Mobile apps enhance the value of the security platform and deliver access to key services consumers expect on-demand wherever they are, and from any device.

Mobility isn't just about remote access - It would be reasonable to assume that customers are solely utilizing mobile devices remotely to monitor and interact with security, video, energy and automation functions. But dealers and integrators report that for many customers the mobile app offers much more.

Customers appreciate the ability to change system settings, lock doors or turn off lights from the living room couch or bedroom rather than having to do so from a physical keypad. Mobile apps also offer a new level of awareness and comfort by enabling the user to stay connected and essentially extend the value of the security system.

Mobile apps can drive sales for other services - Mobile apps can expose customers to additional services anchored to the security platform, especially when used as a sales tactic for a whole home solution. The ease of controlling home energy and seeing video through the same platform can create higher system value as well as increase the opportunity to attach add-on services and generate more RMR. Mobile apps help drive sales for system-integrated services such as video, energy management and home automation.

Below is an illustration of the security market segments. (2011) [[Image Removed]] (17) Table of Contents Future Plans and Potential Markets Our management believes it has the capability to enter into a growing security marketplace with an explosive product at the perfect time.. Research and current trends suggest that the security industry will continue to experience increased spending and growth on detection devices such as EyeTalk®. Our companies Intellectual Property makes it more than just a provider but the outright owner of a very relevant and significant IP… a tremendous asset. We believe that the future of our company is bright and the options of development and/or licensing provide incredible latitude.

We systematically filed patents over the past decade in the areas of medical, institutional, child monitoring, home healthcare and real estate markers. As these assets are now manifesting themselves one by one, the company's plans are unfolding perfectly. Each of the aforementioned markets are monumental and perfectly suited for the IP in our portfolio.

Our management also believes that EyeTalk® has advantages over existing and competing technologies by virtue of its embedded intelligence and processing capabilities. Many of these capabilities may not relate to the security field at all, but may nonetheless be commercially useful. The additional commercial benefits of the EyeTalk® include: º Virtual reception capabilities for offices and businesses º Advanced operations management and remote supervision º Remote on-line education and real-time teacher/student interface (homeschooling) º Home healthcare monitoring and independent living capabilities º Sports applications and entertainment Sales Strategy Our management plans to utilize multiple sales and distribution channels.

· Direct Sales The EyeTalk® technology can be introduced to the market in a variety of ways, given the unique applications it provides. RCI looks to engage a direct sales team of over 2000 sales personnel to launch the residential and commercial versions of the EyeTalk® technology. A nationwide, direct-sales team can be assembled, provided the necessary training and tools, to introduce the products to the consumer. Partnerships with reputable vendors such as The Geek Squad, will be formed to insure professional installation at residential/commercial sites around the country. Infomercials have been proven to be effective also in generating massive appeal quickly. A well-produced infomercial can reach hundreds of thousands of consumers and lead to enormous volumes of sales in a relatively short period of time.

- Licensing We currently hold the IP that provides the use of a wireless camera and it's interface with other devices enabling monitoring. The IP is very relevant to a multi-billion dollar industry. We plan to offer licensing opportunities to companies who wish to utilize this technology and aggressively defend its patent rights. The company has identified an industry expert that it plans to engage to assist with the licensing to companies within the security industry.

· Internet Sales Management expects to sale a significant percentage of the EyeTalk® technology via direct internet sales. We are currently developing 3 commercials that will be airing of television networks, YouTube and our website. It is anticipated that these commercials will generate interest and sales.

- Existing Security Companies The use of wireless camera technology is so effective and efficient today that every security company will have to include the technology in their product offerings in order to remain competitive. We will not only offer a wireless camera technology, but one our management believes will be vastly superior because of its smart capabilities. We are in the process of developing key relationships with industry leaders to identify the fortune 500 companies we will target.

· Commercials and Advertising We have engaged the services of two individuals to assist in the development of its first 3 commercials to be aired on television networks, internet sites and the company's website.

U.S. Patent 8,016,676 B2 Revolutionary Concepts Inc. of Charlotte, North Carolina has been awarded U.S.

patent 8,016,676 related to Child Car Seat Assembly enabling access to remote gaming applications and two-way person-to-person communications.

We have patent pending applications related to; (a) video system for individually selecting and viewing events at a venue; (b) medical monitoring; and (c) real estate audio-video monitoring.

Legal For several years, we have been engaged in litigation against its former patent attorneys for malpractice arising from a missed filing deadline relating to obtaining patents for our core technologies outside the United States. After a two-year fight over jurisdiction in the case, including wins for us at the trial court and at the North Carolina Court of Appeals, the case was remanded to the trial court for further proceedings. Unfortunately, the trial court dismissed the case on a technicality, potentially ending the case. Our trial counsel has assured us that the judge's ruling is contrary to law and that good grounds exist for appeal. An appeal was filed in November 2012, and the Company is awaiting a decision from the court on the appeal.

COMPETITION We expect to compete with much larger and better financed companies in the remote monitoring industry, all of which have superior name recognition, such as ADT, Alarm Force, ATT, Pinkerton's and others. We own the patent by which many of the aforementioned companies will be dependent upon and we believe, but cannot assure, may already be infringing in some manner Remote monitoring is available through a variety of media and processes, including systems integrators, closed circuit television systems, intrusion detection systems, and others. These systems typically incorporate ultrasonic, infrared, vibration, microwave and other sensors to detect door and window openings, glass breakage, vibration, motion, temperature, and noise and transmit through alarms and other peripheral equipment.

For example, the ATT remote monitor integrates with Cingular and Yahoo through cell phones and wireless internet. The user can remotely select the device and determine whether notification will be triggered by door sensors, motion sensors, temperature sensors or a combination. The user can remotely control cameras with pan, tilt and zoom features. The user can download and record or view live camera. The EyeTalk® system provides similar capabilities; however with two-way communication and a programmable software interface enabling the system to effectively manage itself if the user desires.

Industry analysts report that both Cysco and IBM are developing new hardware and software applications for remote monitoring that, if successful, could have profound implications for the industry.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE THREE AND NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2012 COMPARED TO THE THREE AND NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2011 Operating Expenses We have not begun to generate revenues to date. Our total operating expenses decreased to $176,580 from $1,030,618 for the three months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively as compared to $557,383 and $1,512,683 for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

This decrease is primarily attributable to decreased professional fees, compensation, research and development, and payroll tax expense, offset somewhat by increases in marketing expenses.

Net Loss. Our net loss decreased to $307,019 from $1,028,108 for the three months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively as compared to $823,323 and $1,514,880 for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. This decrease is primarily attributable to decreased professional fees, compensation, research and development and payroll tax expense, offset somewhat by increases in marketing expenses and expenses related to our derivative liabilities.

Assets. Assets increased by $1,391 to $130,3012 as of September 30, 2011, from $128,921 as of December 31, 2011. This decrease was primarily due to depreciation and amortization.

Liabilities. Total liabilities increased by $379,440 to $2,113,737 as of September 30 2012, from $1,734,297 as of December 31, 2011. This increase is primarily attributable to the increase in current portion of long-term debt, derivative liability and related party notes payable offset by decreases in accounts payable and long-term notes payable.

Stockholders' Deficit. Stockholders' deficit increased by $823,323 to $5,404,706 as of September 30, 2012 from $4,581,383 as of December 31, 2011. The increase was due primarily to continuing losses from operations.

Liquidity and Capital Resources General. Our primary sources of cash have been sales of common stock through private placements and loans from affiliates. We are a developmental stage company moving from Research and Development ("R & D")to the initial stages of development. The transition from R & D to development and production requires a greater focus on operations, product infrastructure, distribution and channel partners and industry alliances. Over the next 6 - 12 months, we will be looking for the ideal acquisitions that will enable our company to take advantage of an existing customer base. Our management will also pursue appropriate Letter of Intents and Joint Ventures that will position our company to move its products into these ventures when successful production is completed.

Prior relationships with companies discussed in previous filings have been terminated. We are not involved with any of those companies that were very instrumental during the Research and Development stages, but are no longer engaged. We have engaged SIS Development as consulting technical officials for product development. SIS Development will assist RCI in identifying the necessary contracts and relationships moving forward. Additionally, industry expertise and consultation is being provided by advisors in the industry.

As another means of furthering the development of our technology, management is actively seeking an acquisition of a company or companies that are generating revenues and net profits, which, in turn, will enable us to complete the development of the technology and therefore begin to execute a commercialization strategy (sales and marketing of the technology). No assurances can be provided that a suitable acquisition candidate will located or that any acquisition candidate will match all the criteria we have established.

Overall, we had a net increase in cash of $1,355 for the nine month period ended September 30, 2012 compared to a decrease in cash of $184 over the same prior year period.

Cash Flows from Operating Activities. Net cash used in operating activities was $693,082 for the nine month period ended September 30, 2012 compared to $365,700 for nine month period ended September 30, 2011. This increase is primarily attributable continuing net operating losses offset by a decrease in shares issued for services, accounts payable and accrued expenses and increases in amortization of debt and loss on derivative liability.

Cash Flows from Investing Activities. There was $900 used by investment activities for the purchase of equipment for the nine month period ended September 30, 2011 compared to $5,243 cash used by investing activities for the ended period ended September 30, 2012.

Cash Flows from Financing Activities. Net cash provided by financing activities was $699,680 for the nine month period ended September 30, 2012 compared to cash provided by financing activities of $366,416 for the period ended September 30, 2011 and is attributable to the decrease in notes payable of $101,342 and increase in the issuance of common stock shares for the retirement of debt in the amount of $380,492 and the retirement of debt in the amount of $49,065.

Our Company's Capital Structure. In its efforts to grow and expand the Company, management must obtain the necessary capital to achieve those objectives, decide on the best methods to obtain that capital, and adjust the capital structure of the Company as needed. The primary ways a company will raise capital is either through debt financing (borrowing money), or equity financing (selling a portion of the company via shares of stock) or a combination of both. The type of capital chosen (debt or equity), and methods of raising the capital depend on a number of factors including; the company's life cycle stage, e.g., start-up, development, high-growth or maturity, future growth prospects, strength of the national economy and the credit markets.

Potential investors in any company, including ours, will consider those factors and the relative risks to their investment capital. To limit their risks, these investors may limit the size of their investment, or provide it to the company in stages, that is contingent upon the company reaching stated goals e.g., production, marketing, distribution and revenues. The ultimate question for management is; how do you get the investors to commit to making what could be a high risk investment for them, although one that would correspondingly benefit the Company, however one that the investor could lose if the Company were to fail. Management considered both the equity and the debt financing options based on the Company's life cycle stage, economy, credit markets and other circumstances at the time, and reached the following conclusions; Equity Financing - Management decided not to raise additional capital through an equity offering in its initial start-up and development stage for a variety of reasons; (1) The Company would have had to go through the process of filing a registration statement e.g. S-1 with the SEC, which would have required expenditures and resources with no assurances of receiving expeditious approval and would have been very time consuming, given our situation at that time.

(2) The direct and indirect flotation costs of the issuance of an equity capital raise could have run $250,000 or more, and the Company did not have those funds available.

(3) It would have been very difficult to get an investment banker to underwrite a new issuance for a development stage company with a limited operating history and revenues.

(4) Many investors did not want to take an equity position in the Company at that time and the corresponding risks of ownership.

(5) The issuance of equity to these investors, after resolving the potential regulatory challenges, legal issues, time constraints, and costs would have resulted in immediate dilution for the other shareholders, giving them only limited hopes that value would be created.

Therefore, due to the above stated reasons, the economic climate and the Company's circumstances at that time, management elected not to pursue raising capital through an equity offering at that time.

(19) Table of Contents Debt Financing - Management elected to raise capital for the Company through debt financing for the following reasons; (1) Due to the Companies need for further development of our patents, it had immediate and continuous need for capital.

(2) The investors were more willing to invest funds more expeditiously, and take a creditor's position instead of that as an owner by taking an equity position.

(3) With those immediately available funds, management could continue to develop our technology and create short-term economic value to the Company by contracting with various vendors for work, prior to any equity dilution taking place.

(4) The investors were issued Promissory Notes that were unsecured without any collateral (taking a high risk), except as called for in the agreements.

(5) The Notes required no monthly payments which allowed us to use that free cash flow for operating expenses, reduced our cash outlays, interest payments and improve our budget, plans and forecast our cash flow.

(6) The investors received the potential upside of conversion of the Notes into equity while protecting our downside with the use of the cash flow.

(7) Should the investors decide to convert the Notes into common stock, then the Company's debt would be eliminated from its balance sheet.

(8) The tax benefits of debt financing is that it's less expensive, while the Company is taxed on earnings, it is not generally taxed on borrowed money and the interest on the Notes is tax deductible.

(9) Since the investors do not have any equity interests, it has no voting rights or other control over the management of the Company, its operations and no claim to its future earnings.

(10) If the Company ever suffers a negative financial situation, it is much easier to re-negotiate the terms of the Notes with the individual investors than with a bank, or a group of investors through an equity or bond offering.

Based on the reasons above, and since the Company required immediate capital to rapidly expand, grow, restructure its operations, continue development, finance potential acquisitions and execute its marketing plans; raising capital through debt financing was our best alternative. This strategy resulted in our expanding on our technology patents; thereby, increasing our potential assets, market capitalization value and our shareholders owning a portion of a much larger and more valuable company. As the Company continues to advance and develop through the different stages of its business life cycle, management will evaluate options, alternatives, and make strategic decisions for the best investment opportunities, financing and capital structure at that time.

Debt In its efforts to expand and grow, we issued debt instruments to borrow funds from various creditors to raise capital. These are long-term Notes with various rates and maturities, that grants the Note Holder the right, (but not the obligation), to convert them into shares of our common stock in lieu of receiving payment in cash. The issued Notes are secured obligations. The principal amount of the Notes may be prepaid upon agreement of both parties and a prepayment penalty, in whole or part at any time, together with all accrued interest upon written notice.

Our management believes that there are a number of benefits when issuing debt versus issuing equity capital. The interest paid on debt capital is tax exempt; hence, our loan costs are lowered. Outside of their contractual debt documents, creditors have no control in the conduct of the business, so by issuing debt capital, we do not dilute the ownership rights of our shareholders (unless and until any debt is converted into equity). Also, as the interest rates are predetermined, the management is able to budget for the payments. Generally, debt is less costly and the time involved to be able to raise the capital is shortened. In many cases, raising capital through equity requires regulatory approval, which can take months and is dilutive to all shareholders.

The investors and private equity firms are very astute and have many years of experience and expertise in making successful investments in many companies.

They have been investing with the Company for several years, and have provided us with critical short and long-term funds that we have used for operations, working capital, and investment capital for our business acquisitions to expand and grow the Company. They have the option to convert their Notes into stock after a holding period per SEC guidelines. However, most have elected to hold their Notes for 1 to 3 years and therefore have taken a long-term investment strategy in the Company. Without their continuous long-term commitment to investment in the Company, it is unlikely that the growth and expansion that we have achieved would have been possible.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements In May 2011, FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-04, "Fair Value Measurements (Topic 820): Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRSs" ("ASU 2011-04"). ASU 2011-04 changes the wording used to describe many of the requirements in U.S. GAAP for measuring fair value and for disclosing information about fair value measurements to ensure consistency between U.S. GAAP and IFRS. ASU 2011-04 also expands the disclosures for fair value measurements that are estimated using significant unobservable (Level 3) inputs. This new guidance is to be applied prospectively. The Company anticipates that the adoption of this standard will not materially expand its financial statement note disclosures.

In June 2011, FASB issued ASU No. 2011-05, "Comprehensive Income (ASC Topic 220): Presentation of Comprehensive Income" ("ASU 2011-05"), which amends current comprehensive income guidance. This accounting update eliminates the option to present the components of other comprehensive income as part of the statement of shareholders' equity. Instead, the Company must report comprehensive income in either a single continuous statement of comprehensive income which contains two sections, net income and other comprehensive income, or in two separate but consecutive statements. ASU 2011-05 will be effective for public companies during the interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011, with early adoption permitted. The Company is reviewing ASU 2011-05 to ascertain its impact on the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash flows as it only requires a change in the format of the current presentation.

In September 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-08, "Testing Goodwill for Impairment", which allows, but does not require, an entity when performing its annual goodwill impairment test the option to first do an initial assessment of qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount for purposes of determining whether it is even necessary to perform the first step of the two-step goodwill impairment test. Accordingly, based on the option created in ASU 2011-08, the calculation of a reporting unit's fair value is not required unless, as a result of the qualitative assessment, it is more likely than not that fair value of the reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. If it is less, the quantitative impairment test is then required. ASU 2011-08 also provides for new qualitative indicators to replace those currently used. Prior to ASU 2011-08, entities were required to test goodwill for impairment on at least an annual basis, by first comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount. If the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, then the second step of the test is performed to measure the amount of impairment loss, if any. ASU 2011-08 is effective for annual and interim goodwill impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011, with early adoption permitted. The Company adopted ASU 2011-08 during the first quarter of fiscal 2013. The adoption of ASU 2011-08 did not impact the Company's results of operations or financial condition.

In December 2011, FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2011-11, "Balance Sheet - Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities" to enhance disclosure requirements relating to the offsetting of assets and liabilities on an entity's balance sheet. The update requires enhanced disclosures regarding assets and liabilities that are presented net or gross in the statement of financial position when the right of offset exists, or that are subject to an enforceable master netting arrangement. The new disclosure requirements relating to this update are retrospective and effective for annual and interim periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013. The update only requires additional disclosures, as such, the Company does not expect that the adoption of this standard will have a material impact on its results of operations, cash flows or financial condition.

In July 2012, the FASB issued ASU No. 2012-02, "Testing Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets for Impairment". The guidance allows companies to perform a "qualitative" assessment to determine whether further impairment testing of indefinite-lived intangible assets is necessary, similar in approach to the goodwill impairment test.

ASU 2012-02 allows companies the option to first assess qualitatively whether it is more likely than not that an indefinite-lived intangible asset is impaired, before determining whether it is necessary to perform the quantitative impairment test. An entity is not required to calculate the fair value of an indefinite-lived intangible asset and perform the quantitative impairment test unless the entity determines that it is more likely than not that the asset is impaired. Companies can choose to perform the qualitative assessment on none, some, or all of its indefinite-lived intangible assets or choose to only perform the quantitative impairment test for any indefinite-lived intangible in any period.

ASU 2012-02 is effective for annual and interim impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after September 15, 2012, with early adoption permitted.

The Company is in the process of evaluating the guidance and the impact ASU 2012-02 will have on its consolidated financial statements.

Subsequent Events (Included in Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 855 "Subsequent Events", previously SFAS No. 165 "Subsequent Events") SFAS No. 165 established general standards of accounting for and disclosure of events that occur after the balance sheet date, but before the financial statements are issued or available to be issued ("subsequent events"). An entity is required to disclose the date through which subsequent events have been evaluated and the basis for that date. For public entities, this is the date the financial statements are issued. SFAS No. 165 does not apply to subsequent events or transactions that are within the scope of other GAAP and did not result in significant changes in the subsequent events reported by the Company.

SFAS No. 165 became effective for interim or annual periods ending after June 15, 2009 and did not impact the Company's financial statements. The Company evaluated for subsequent events through the issuance date of the Company's financial statements. No recognized or non-recognized subsequent events were noted.

142-3 "Determination of the Useful Lives of Intangible Assets") FSP SFAS No. 142-3 amended the factors that should be considered in developing renewal or extension assumptions used to determine the useful life of a recognized intangible asset under previously issued goodwill and intangible assets topics. This change was intended to improve the consistency between the useful life of a recognized intangible asset and the period of expected cash flows used to measure the fair value of the asset under topics related to business combinations and other GAAP. The requirement for determining useful lives must be applied prospectively to intangible assets acquired after the effective date and the disclosure requirements must be applied prospectively to all intangible assets recognized as of, and subsequent to, the effective date.

FSP SFAS No. 142-3 became effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The adoption of FSP SFAS No. 142-3 did not impact the Company's financial statements.

The Company implemented SFAS No. 160 at the start of fiscal 2009 and no longer records an intangible asset when the purchase price of a noncontrolling interest exceeds the book value at the time of buyout.
