This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains  forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. For example, statements regarding the Company’s financial position, business strategy and other plans and objectives for future operations, and assumptions and predictions about future product demand, supply, manufacturing, costs, marketing and pricing factors are all forward-looking statements. These statements are generally accompanied by words such as “intend,” anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “potential(ly),” “continue,” “forecast,” “predict,” “plan,” “may,” “will,” “could,” “would,” “should,” “expect” or the negative of such terms or other comparable terminology. The Company believes that the assumptions and expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are reasonable, based on information available to it on the date hereof, but the Company cannot provide assurances that these assumptions and expectations will prove to have been correct or that the Company will take any action that the Company may presently be planning. However, these forward-looking statements are inherently subject to known and unknown risks and uncertainties. Actual results or experience may differ materially from those expected or anticipated in the forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to, regulatory policies, available cash, research results, competition from other similar businesses, and market and general economic factors. This discussion should be read in conjunction with the condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

U.S. AEROSPACE, INC.  AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2010 AND 2009

 
1. ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
Organization And Nature Of Operations
 
On April 26, 2010 New Century Companies, Inc., a Delaware corporation changed its name to U.S. Aerospace, Inc. (“U.S. Aerospace” or the “Company”). The Company was incorporated in Delaware on August 1, 1980. Its wholly owned subsidiary, New Century Remanufacturing Inc., a California corporation (“NCR”), was incorporated in March 1996 and is located in Southern California. On October 9, 2009, the Company entered into a share exchange agreement with Precision Aerostructures, Inc. (“PAI”) pursuant to which the sole shareholder of PAI agreed to transfer all capital stock of PAI to the Company (see Note 3).  Collectively, U. S. Aerospace and its wholly owned subsidiaries are referred to as the “Company”. The Company is engaged in the production of aircraft assemblies, structural components, and highly engineered, precision machined details on projects for the U.S. Department of Defense, United States Air Force, Lockheed Martin Corporation, The Boeing Company, L-3 Communications Holdings, Inc., the Middle River Aircraft Systems subsidiary of General Electric Company, and other aircraft manufacturers, aerospace companies, and defense contractors. NCR also provides after-market services, including rebuilding, retrofitting and remanufacturing of metal cutting machinery

The Company trades on the OTC Bulletin Board under the symbol "USAE".

Principles Of Consolidation
 
The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of U.S. Aerospace and its wholly owned subsidiaries, New Century Remanufacturing, Inc. and PAI.  All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information

The Company has adopted the authoritative guidance for disclosures about segments of an enterprise and related information. The guidance requires the Company to report information about segments of its business in annual financial statements and requires it to report selected segment information in its quarterly reports issued to stockholders.  The guidance also requires entity-wide disclosures about the products and services an entity provides, the material countries in which it holds assets and reports revenues and its major customers. The Company’s two reportable segments are managed separately based on fundamental differences in their operations.  At June 30 2010, the Company operated in the following two reportable segments (see Note 10):

(a) Multiaxis structural aircraft components and
 (b) CNC machine tool remanufacturing.

The Company evaluates performance and allocates resources based upon operating income. The accounting policies of the reportable segments are the same as those described in this summary of significant accounting policies.

Basis Of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the Company pursuant to the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) have been omitted pursuant to such SEC rules and regulations; nevertheless, the Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. These financial statements and the notes hereto should be read in conjunction with the financial statements, accounting policies and notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009, filed with the SEC. In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary to present fairly, in accordance with GAAP, the Company's consolidated financial position as of  June 30, 2010, and the consolidated results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods presented, have been made.  Such adjustments consist only of normal recurring adjustments.  The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010 are not necessarily indicative of the results for the full year ending December 31, 2010. Amounts related to disclosure of December 31, 2009 balances within these interim condensed consolidated financial statements were derived from the audited 2009 consolidated financial statements and notes thereto.
 
Going Concern

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates, among other things, the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. As of and the for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, the Company has a net loss of approximately $3,489,000, an accumulated deficit of approximately $30,341,000, and working capital deficit of approximately $11,649,000 and was in default on several notes payable (see Note 6) and had events of default on its CAMOFI and CAMHZN debt (see Note 5).   These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The Company intends to fund operations through anticipated increased sales which management believes may be insufficient to fund its capital expenditures, working capital and other cash requirements for the year ending December 31, 2010. Therefore, the Company will be required to seek additional funds to finance its long-term operations in the form of debt and equity financing which the Company believes is available to it.  The successful outcome of future activities cannot be determined at this time and there is no assurance that if achieved, the Company will have sufficient funds to execute its intended business plan or generate positive operating results.
 
 In response to these problems, management has taken the following actions:
 
 
·
continued its aggressive program for selling its products;

 
·
continued to implement plans to further reduce operating costs; and

 
·
is seeking investment capital through the public and private markets.
 
The condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to the carrying amounts related to recoverability and classification of assets or the amount and classification of liabilities that might result should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
 
Reclassifications
 
The Company has reclassified the presentation of prior-year information to conform to the current period presentation.
 
Inventories
 
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Cost is determined under the first-in, first-out method. Inventories represent cost of work in process on units not yet under contract. Cost includes all direct material and labor, machinery, subcontractors and allocations of indirect overhead. At each balance sheet date, the Company evaluates its ending inventories for excess quantities and obsolescence. Among other factors, the Company considers historical demand and forecasted demand in relation to the inventory on hand and market conditions when determining obsolescence and net realizable value. Provisions are made to reduce excess or obsolete inventories to their estimated net realizable values. Once established, write-downs are considered permanent adjustments to the cost basis of the excess or obsolete inventories. As of  June 30, 2010, inventories consist of $24,066 of work-in-process and $262,462 of finished goods.

Revenue Recognition

The Company's revenues consist primarily of contracts with customers. The Company uses the percentage-of-completion method of accounting to account for long-term contracts pursuant to U.S. accounting standards, and, therefore, takes into account the cost, estimated earnings and revenue to date on fixed-fee contracts not yet completed. The percentage-of-completion method is used because management considers total cost to be the best available measure of progress on the contracts. Because of inherent uncertainties in estimating costs, it is at least reasonably possible that the estimates used will change within the near term.

For contracts, the amount of revenue recognized at the consolidated financial statement date is the portion of the total contract price that the cost expended to date bears to the anticipated final cost, based on current estimates of cost to complete. Contract costs include all materials, direct labor, machinery, subcontract costs and allocations of indirect overhead.

Because contracts may extend over a period of time, changes in job performance, changes in job conditions and revisions of estimates of cost and earnings during the course of the work are reflected in the accounting period in which the facts that require the revision become known. At the time a loss on a contract becomes known, the entire amount of the estimated ultimate loss is recognized in the consolidated financial statements.

Contracts that are substantially complete are considered closed for financial statement purposes. Costs incurred and revenue earned on contracts in progress in excess of billings (under billings) are classified as a current asset. Amounts billed in excess of costs and revenue earned (over billings) are classified as a current liability.

For revenues from stock inventory, the Company follows U.S accounting standards, which outline the basic criteria that must be met to recognize revenue other than revenue on contracts, and provides guidance for presentation of this revenue and for disclosure related to these revenue recognition policies in financial statements filed with the SEC. The Company recognizes revenue from stock inventory when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, title transfer has occurred, or services have been performed, the price is fixed or readily determinable and collectibility is probable.

The Company accounts for shipping and handling fees and costs in accordance with U.S. accounting standards. Shipping and handling fees and costs incurred by the Company are immaterial to the operations of the Company and are included in cost of sales.

In accordance with U.S. accounting standards, revenue is recorded net of an estimate for markdowns and price concessions. Such reserve is based on management's evaluation of historical experience, current industry trends and estimated costs. As of June 30, 2010, the Company estimated the markdowns and price concessions and concluded amounts are immaterial and did not record any adjustment to revenues.
 
Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Significant estimates made by management are, among others, deferred tax asset valuation allowances, realization of inventories, collectibility of receivables, recoverability of long-lived assets, accrued warranty costs, payroll and income tax penalties, the valuation of conversion options, stock options and warrants and the estimation of costs for long-term construction contracts. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Warranty

 
The Company provides a warranty on certain products sold. Estimated future warranty obligations related to certain products and services are provided by charges to operations in the period in which the related revenue is recognized. At June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, the warranty obligation balance was approximately $136,000 and $137,000, respectively. Amounts charged to warranty expense in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations was approximately $0 and $3,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010 and  $0 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2009, respectively.

 
Concentration of Credit Risks

 
Cash is maintained at various financial institutions. The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) insures accounts at each financial institution for up to $250,000. At times, cash may be in excess of the FDIC insured limit. The Company did not have any uninsured bank balances at June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts and believes it is not exposed to any significant credit risks on cash.

The Company sells products to customers throughout the United States. The Company’s ability to collect receivables is affected by economic fluctuations in the geographic areas served by the Company. Although the Company does not obtain collateral with which to secure its accounts receivable, management periodically reviews accounts receivable and assesses the financial strength of its customers and, as a consequence, believes that the receivable credit risk exposure could, at times, be material to the condensed consolidated financial statements.

The Company maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts for balances that appear to have specific collection issues. The collection process is based on the age of the invoice and requires attempted contacts with the customer at specified intervals. If, after a specified number of days, the Company has been unsuccessful in its collection efforts, a bad debt allowance is recorded for the balance in question. Delinquent accounts receivable are charged against the allowance for doubtful accounts once uncollectibility has been determined. The factors considered in reaching this determination are the apparent financial condition of the customer and the Company’s success in contacting and negotiating with the customer. If the financial condition of the Company’s customers were to deteriorate, resulting in an impairment of ability to make payments, additional allowances may be required.

Management reviews the collectibility of receivables periodically and believes that the allowance for doubtful accounts for the three and six months  ended June 30, 2010 and the year ended December 31, 2009 is adequate. There was no allowance for doubtful accounts at June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009.

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, sales to one customer approximated 95%  and 90% of net revenues. Further, there was one customer that accounted for approximately 86% of accounts receivable at June 30, 2010.

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2009, sales to two customers accounted for approximately 46% of net revenues.

Basic And Diluted Loss Per Common Share

Basic net loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted net loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of common shares and dilutive common stock equivalents outstanding for each respective year.

Common stock equivalents, representing convertible Preferred Stock, convertible debt, options and warrants totaling approximately 153,611,000 and 74,320,847 for June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively, are not included in the computation of diluted loss per share as they would be anti-dilutive.

Stock Based Compensation

The Company uses the fair value method of accounting for employee stock compensation cost. Share-based compensation cost is measured at the grant date based on the fair value of the award and is recognized as expense on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period, which is the vesting period.  For the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, $79,352 of  employee  and director share-based compensation expense was recognized in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations.  For the three and six months ended June 30, 2009, $35,014 and $0  of  employee share-based compensation expense was recognized in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operation,

From time to time, the Company's Board of Directors grants common share purchase options or warrants to selected directors, officers, employees, consultants and advisors in payment of goods or services provided by such persons on a stand-alone basis outside of any of the Company's formal stock plans. The terms of these grants are individually negotiated and generally expire within five years from the grant date.

Under the terms of the Company's 2000 Stock Option Plan, options to purchase an aggregate of 5,000,000 shares of common stock may be issued to officers, key employees and consultants of the Company. The exercise price of any option generally may not be less than the fair market value of the shares on the date of grant. The term of each option generally may not be more than five years.

In accordance with U.S. accounting standards, the Company’s policy is to adjust share-based compensation on a quarterly basis for changes to the estimate of expected award forfeitures based on actual forfeiture experience.

The fair value of stock-based awards to employees and directors is calculated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model, even though the model was developed to estimate the fair value of freely tradable, fully transferable options without vesting restriction, which differ significantly from the Company's stock options. The Black-Scholes model also requires subjective assumptions regarding future stock price volatility and expected time to exercise, which greatly affect the calculated values. The expected term of options granted is derived from historical data on employee exercises and post-vesting employment termination behavior. The risk-free rate selected to value any particular grant is based on the U.S. Treasury rate that corresponds to the pricing term of the grant effective as of the date of the grant. The expected volatility is based on the historical volatility of the Company’s common stock. These factors could change in the future, affecting the determination of stock-based compensation expense in future periods.

There were no plan options granted, and 1,200,000 options were exercised or expired during the three and six months ended June 30, 2010.   There were 2,900,000 shares available for grant at June 30, 2010.

All plan options outstanding have vested as of June 30, 2010 and are as follows:

Represents the approximate difference between the exercise price and the closing market price of the Company's common stock at the end of the reporting period (as of June 30, 2010 the market price of the Company's common stock was $0.06).

The Company accounts for transactions involving services provided by third parties where the Company issues equity instruments as part of the total consideration using the fair value of the consideration received (i.e. the value of the goods or services) or the fair value of the equity instruments issued, whichever is more reliably measurable. In transactions when the value of the goods and/or services are not readily determinable, the fair value of the equity instruments is more reliably measurable and the counterparty receives equity instruments in full or partial settlement of the transactions, the Company uses the following methodology:

 
11

 

a) For transactions where goods have already been delivered or services rendered, the equity instruments are issued on or about the date the performance is complete (and valued on the date of issuance).

b) For transactions where the instruments are issued on a fully vested, non-forfeitable basis, the equity instruments are valued on or about the date of the contract.

c) For any transactions not meeting the criteria in (a) or (b) above, the Company re-measures the consideration at each reporting date based on its then current stock value.

From time to time, the Company issues warrants to employees and to third parties pursuant to various agreements, which are not approved by the shareholders.

Non-Plan Options

On April 7, 2010, the Company issued 10,000,000 stock options that were not under the 2000 Stock Option Plan. These options were issued to newly hired non-employee directors and  to a marketing consultant. The options have an exercise price of $0.13 per share and a term of five years, with a weighted average remaining life of 4.77 years,  One half of the options vest at the end of the first year and one half of the options vest at the end of the second year. The fair value of the options at grant date was $1,273,000 which is being amortized into compensation expense over the vesting period. At June 30, 2010, $159,183 was expensed.

A Black Scholes model was used to calculate the fair value with the following parameters: stock price of $0.13 per share, exercise price of $0.13 per share, risk free rate of 3.52%, stock volatility of 204.39% and no dividend.

Deferred Financing Costs

Direct costs of securing debt financing are capitalized and amortized over the term of the related debt. When a loan is paid in full, any unamortized financing costs are removed from the related accounts and charged to operations. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2010  the Company amortized approximately $61,000 and $122,000, respectively, of deferred financing costs to interest expense in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2009  the Company amortized approximately $117,000 and $234,000, respectively, of deferred financing costs to interest expense in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Fair Value Measurements

U.S. accounting standards require disclosure of a fair-value hierarchy of inputs the Company uses to value an asset or a liability. The three levels of the fair-value hierarchy are described as follows:

Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets and liabilities. For the Company, Level 1 inputs include quoted prices on the Company’s securities that are actively traded.

Level 2: Inputs other than Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly. For the Company, Level 2 inputs include assumptions such as estimated life, risk free rate and volatility estimates used in determining the fair values of the Company’s option and warrant securities issued.

Level 3: Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability. Level 3 inputs may be required for the determination of fair value associated with certain nonrecurring measurements of nonfinancial assets and liabilities. The Company does not currently present any nonfinancial assets or liabilities at fair value.

 
12

 

Determining which category an asset or liability falls within the hierarchy requires significant judgment. The Company evaluates its hierarchy disclosures each quarter.  The Company does not have any liabilities that are measured at fair value as of June 30, 2010.

The Company has no assets that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis. There were no assets or liabilities measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis during the six months ended June 30, 2009.

Accounting for Derivative Instruments

In connection with the issuance of certain convertible notes payable (see Note 5), the notes had conversion features that the Company determined were embedded derivative instruments. The Company issued warrants in connection with a loan payable (see Note 6) that had an anti-dilution provision which caused the warrants to be a derivative instrument.  The accounting treatment of derivative financial instruments requires that the Company record the derivatives and related warrants at their fair values as of the inception date of the note and warrant agreements and at fair value as of each subsequent balance sheet date.

For all of the derivative instruments, any change in fair value is recorded as non-operating, non-cash income or expense at each balance sheet date. If the fair value of the derivatives was higher at the subsequent balance sheet date, the Company recorded a non-operating, non-cash charge. If the fair value of the derivatives was lower at the subsequent balance sheet date, the Company recorded non-operating, non-cash income.

As discussed in Note 5, effective December 31, 2009, CAMOFI and CAMHZN removed the variability of the conversion feature of their notes, fixing the conversion price at the then conversion price of $0.04 per share.  In addition, CAMOFI and CAMHZN also removed the variability of the exercise price of their outstanding warrants.  As a result, the fair values of the variable conversion feature ($11,190,904) of the notes and the related warrants ($747,381) were reclassified to additional paid-in capital on December 31, 2009.

As discussed in Note 6, effective January 31, 2010, the variability feature of the exercise price of the outstanding warrants issued to Micro Pipe were removed.  As a result, the fair value of the warrants of $59,631 was reclassified to additional paid-in capital on January 31, 2010.

During the periods ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, the Company recognized other expense of $11,253 and  $1,575,903, respectively, related to recording derivative liabilities at fair value.  At June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, the derivative liability balance was $0 and $48,378, respectively.

Beneficial conversion feature and warrant-related derivatives were valued using the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model with the following assumptions during the period ended June 30, 2010: dividend yield of 0%; volatility of 204% and a risk free interest rate of 0.13% for the beneficial conversion feature and 3.77% for the warrants.

The following table summarizes the activity related to the derivative liability during the period ended June 30, 2010:

Accounting for Debt Issued with Detachable Stock Purchase Warrants and Beneficial Conversion Features

The Company accounts for debt issued with stock purchase warrants by allocating the proceeds of the debt between the debt and the detachable warrants based on the relative fair values of the debt security without the warrants and the warrants themselves, if the warrants are equity instruments. The relative fair value of the warrants are recorded as a debt discount and amortized to expense over the life of the related debt using the effective interest method which approximates the straight-line amortization method. At each balance sheet date, the Company makes a determination if these warrant instruments should be classified as liabilities or equity, and reclassify them if the circumstances dictate.

 
13

 

In certain instances, the Company enters into convertible notes that provide for an effective or actual rate of conversion that is below market value, and the embedded conversion feature does not qualify for derivative treatment (a “BCF”).  In these instances, we account for the value of the BCF as a debt discount, which is then amortized to expense over the life of the related debt using the effective interest method which approximates the straight-line amortization method (see Note 5).

Significant Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In January 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued an update to its accounting guidance regarding fair value measurement and disclosure. The guidance affects the disclosures made about recurring and non-recurring fair value measurements. This guidance is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2009, except for the disclosures about purchases, sales, issuances and settlements in the roll forward of activity in Level 3 fair value measurements. Those disclosures are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that this guidance will have on its condensed consolidated financial statements.

Other recent accounting pronouncements issued by the FASB (including its Emerging Issues Task Force), the AICPA, and the SEC did not or are not believed by management to have a material impact on the Company’s present or future consolidated financial statements.

3. ACQUISITION OF PRECISION AEROSTRUCTURES, INC.

On October 9, 2009, the Company entered into a Share Exchange Agreement (the “Share Exchange Agreement”) with PAI and Michael Cabral (“Cabral”) pursuant to which Cabral, as the sole shareholder of PAI, agreed to transfer to the Company, and the Company agreed to acquire from Cabral, all of the capital stock of PAI (the “PAI Shares”) in exchange for 5,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock (the “NCCI shares”) with an acquisition-date fair value of $900,000 and the delivery of a promissory note of the Company (the “Note”) in the principal amount of $500,000 payable from the proceeds of any equity financing with gross proceeds of at least $2,000,000 provided that the investors in such financing permit the proceeds thereof  to be used for such purpose (see Note 8).

Additionally, at such time (the “Vesting Date”) as the cumulative net income of PAI is at least $3,000,000 for the period commencing on January 1, 2010 and ending on October 9, 2012 the Company will issue to Cabral warrants (“Warrants”) to purchase 3,000,000 shares of Company common stock.  The Warrants will be for a term of the earlier of three years from the Vesting Date or January 1, 2014, and shall have an exercise price of $0.10 per share.  The Warrant vests immediately on the Vesting Date and the estimated acquisition-date fair value of the Warrants was $540,000 (based on the Black-Scholes option pricing model).

The Company acquired PAI to position itself for growth in the aerospace business, which is projected to grow at a 5% compounded annual rate for the next 20 years.  PAI complements the Company’s machining capabilities in an industry that shows more growth in comparison to machine tooling.

The terms of the purchase were the result of arms-length negotiations.  There is no material relationship between the Company, on the one hand, and PAI or Cabral, on the other hand.

The pro forma combined historical results, as if PAI had been acquired as of January 1, 2009, are estimated as follows (unaudited):

4.  GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLE ASSETS

Goodwill represents the excess of acquisition cost over the net assets acquired in a business combination and is not amortized.  The Company allocates its goodwill to its various reporting units, determines the carrying value of those businesses, and estimates the fair value of the reporting units so that a two-step goodwill impairment test can be performed.  In the first step of the goodwill impairment test, the fair value of each reporting unit is compared to its carrying value.  Management reviews, on an annual basis, the carrying value of goodwill in order to determine whether impairment has occurred.  Impairment is based on several factors including the Company's projection of future undiscounted operating cash flows. If an impairment of the carrying value were to be indicated by this review, the Company would perform the second step of the goodwill impairment test in order to determine the amount of goodwill impairment, if any.

The changes in the carrying amount of goodwill for the period ended March 31, 2010 are as follows:

Balance, December 31, 2009
 
$
2,359,121
 
Addition of goodwill for adjustment to net liabilities assumed in acquisition

The Company recorded a purchase price adjustment to goodwill of $42,221 related to the balance of capital lease obligations assumed upon acquisition in the three months ended March 31, 2010.

Identifiable intangibles acquired in connection with business acquisitions are recorded at their respective fair values.  Deferred income taxes have been recorded to the extent of differences between the fair value and the tax basis of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed.

Other intangible assets consist of the following as of June 30, 2010:

5. CONVERTIBLE NOTES PAYABLE

CAMOFI AND CAMHZN 12% AND 15% Senior Secured Convertible Debt

The Company entered into various convertible debt financings with CAMOFI Master LDC (“CAMOFI”) and CAMHZN Master LDC (“CAMZHN”) prior to January 1, 2009 under the Amended 12% CAMOFI Convertible Note (“Amended 12% CAMOFI Note) and 15% CAMHZN Convertible Note (“15% CAMHZN Note”) (collectively, the “Notes”).  As of December 31, 2008, the amounts due under the Notes to CAMOFI and CAMHZN were $2,834,281 and $750,000, respectively.  In connection with the Notes, the Company issued warrants and stock to CAMOFI and warrants to CAMHZN.  The debt discounts as of December 31, 2008 related to the Notes, which includes amounts for the conversion options, warrants and stock, to CAMOFI and CAMHZN were $2,089,443 and $350,090, respectively.  The debt discounts as of December 31, 2009 related to the amounts borrowed prior to 2009 from CAMOFI and CAMHZN were $753,619 and $127,128, respectively.  The debt discounts as of June 30, 2010 related to the amounts borrowed prior to 2009 from CAMOFI and CAMHZN were $87,169  and $13,424, respectively.

In addition, the conversion option of the Notes and the warrants issued to CAMOFI and CAMHZN contained an anti-dilution feature, which caused these instruments to be accounted for as derivative liabilities.  The derivative liabilities were accounted for at their fair values on a quarterly basis and the resulting changes in the fair value were recorded as a gain or loss in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.  As discussed in Note 1, CAMOFI and CAMHZN cancelled the anti-dilution provisions of the conversion option of the Notes and the warrants effective December 31, 2009.

2009

During 2009, the Company borrowed $1,199,600 from CAMOFI and $298,400 from CAMHZN under the Notes.  The debt discounts, which includes amounts for the conversion options, as of December 31, 2009 related to the 2009 borrowings from CAMOFI and CAMHZN were $375,535 and $93,882, respectively.  The debt discounts as of June 30, 2010 related to the 2009 borrowings from CAMOFI and CAMHZN were $36,513and $9,126, respectively. In connection with extending the maturity date of the Notes in August 2009, the Company issued 800,000 and 200,000 warrants to CAMOFI and CAMHZN, respectively.  The fair value of the warrants on the date of issuance was $80,000 and was recorded as interest expense.

In addition, the conversion option of the Notes and the warrants issued to CAMOFI and CAMHZN during 2009 contained an anti-dilution feature, which caused these instruments to be accounted for as derivative liabilities.  The derivative liabilities were accounted for at their fair values on a quarterly basis and the resulting changes in the fair value were recorded as a gain or loss in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.  As discussed in Note 1, CAMOFI and CAMHZN cancelled the anti-dilution provisions of the conversion option of the Notes and the warrants effective December 31, 2009.

2010

During the first quarter of 2010, the Company borrowed $324,000 from CAMOFI and $81,000 from CAMHZN under the Notes and recorded debt discounts related to the conversion options and warrants issued for the same amounts as borrowed.  The Company received proceeds of $350,000, net of amounts paid directly to a vendor by the note holder.   The Notes are due on August 1, 2010 and bear interest at 15% per annum.  The debt discounts as of June 30, 2010 related to these borrowings from CAMOFI and CAMHZN were $64,733 and $16,183, respectively.

In January 2010, the Company issued 640,000 shares of common stock to CAMOFI and CAMHZN for conversion of $20,480 and $5,120, respectively, of principal on the Notes (See Note 7).

In April and May 2010 the Company borrowed $176,000 from CAMOFI and $44,000 from CAMHZN under the Notes and recorded debt discounts related to the conversion options and warrants issued for the same amounts as borrowed.  The Company received no proceeds  as the $220,000 was paid directly to a lender and a vendor by the note holder.   The Notes are due on August 1, 2010 and bear interest at 15% per annum.  The debt discounts as of June 30, 2010 related to these borrowings from CAMOFI and CAMHZN were $65,000 and $22,000, respectively.

The Company has incurred events of default on the Notes.  The last monthly contractual payment on the CAMOFI note was made in October 2008 and no payments have been  made on the CAMHZN Note which were scheduled to begin on September 1, 2008.  As a result, these are events of default under the terms of the agreement. Under the terms of the agreement, if any event of default occurs, the full principal amount of the note, together with interest and other amounts owing in respect thereof, to the date of acceleration shall become, at the note holder’s election, immediately due and payable in cash. The note holders have yet to elect to exercise the default provisions. As of June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, the principal balances and the debt discounts are presented in the Convertible Notes Table, below.

6. LOAN AND NOTES PAYABLE

On November 12, 2009, the Company entered into an agreement with Micro Pipe Fund I, LLC for the receipt of a Secured Loan of $150,000 (the “Micro Pipe Loan”).  The loan accrued interest at a rate of 2% per month and matured on January 5, 2010.  On the maturity date, all principal and interest was due in addition to a payment equal to 10% of the principal balance.  The loan was not repaid at maturity, is currently in default and is now due on demand.  The loan is secured by a secondary interest in all of the assets of the Company.

In connection with the Micro Pipe Loan, the Company granted 500,000 immediately vested five year warrants with a term of five years and an exercise price of $0.20 (“Micro Pipe Warrants”).

The Micro Pipe Warrants had an exercise feature that was the same as the anti-dilution provision in the CAMOFI Warrants (See Note 5). Consequently, the warrants were also treated as a derivative liability. In May 2010, as part of the settlement agreement, the warrants were cancelled.

The Company recorded at issuance a $108,101 derivative liability for the Micro Pipe warrants.  As discussed in Note 1, the anti-dilution provision of the warrants was cancelled effective January 31, 2010.  As a result of the cancellation of the anti-dilution provision, the fair value of the warrant on such date ($59,631) was reclassified from derivative liability to additional paid-in capital.  As of March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009, the fair value of the warrant derivative was determined to be $0 and $48,378, respectively.  For the six months ended June 30, 2010, the Company recorded a change in fair value of the warrant derivative liability that resulted in a loss of $11,253, which is included in gain or loss on valuation of derivative liabilities in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations.

The initial Micro Pipe Warrants derivative liability of $108,101 represented a discount from the face amount of the note payable. Such discount was amortized to interest expense over the term of the note. During the six months ended June 30, 2010, the Company amortized the balance of $10,003 to interest expense in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations.

In March 2010, the Company issued 71,429 shares of restricted common stock in lieu of penalties on its loan payable. The common stock was recorded at the estimated fair value of the common stock on the date of the transaction. Approximately $12,000 was expensed to interest at the time of issuance and is included in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations.

As of June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, the Company had recorded $23,566 and $5,566, respectively, in accrued interest on the Micro Pipe Loan.

Notes Payable

Certain notes payable are in default and are classified as current on the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets.

At June 30, 2010, the Company’s notes payable consisted of a note in the amount of $27,095 from GE Money Bank, secured with equipment, entered into in July 2007, bearing interest at 17.9% per annum, payable in monthly principal and interest installments of $1,156, maturing in June 2012, includes accrued interest of $5,807. The Company is in default on the note and the balance is due on demand.

Indemnities and Guarantees

The Company has made certain indemnities and guarantees, under which it may be required to make payments to a guaranteed or indemnified party, in relation to certain actions or transactions. The Company indemnifies its directors, officers, employees and agents, as permitted under the laws of the State of California. In connection with its facility leases, the Company has indemnified its lessors for certain claims arising from the use of the facilities.  The duration of the guarantees and indemnities varies, and is generally tied to the life of the agreement. These guarantees and indemnities do not provide for any limitation of the maximum potential future payments the Company could be obligated to make. Historically, the Company has not been obligated nor incurred any payments for these obligations and, therefore, no liabilities have been recorded for these indemnities and guarantees in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.

10. SEGMENT REPORTING

The Company’s operations are classified into two principal reportable segments that provide different products or services.

Certain statements contained herein that are not related to historical results, including, without limitation, statements regarding the Company's business strategy and objectives, future financial position, expectations about pending litigation and estimated cost savings, are forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Securities Exchange Act") and involve risks and uncertainties. Although the Company believes that the assumptions on which these forward-looking statements are based are reasonable, there can be no assurance that such assumptions will prove to be accurate and 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, regulatory policies, and market and general policies, competition from other similar businesses, and market and general economic factors. All forward-looking statements contained in this Form 10-Q are qualified in their entirety by this statement.

OVERVIEW

U.S. Aerospace is engaged in the production of aircraft assemblies, structural components, and highly engineered, precision machined details on projects for the U.S. Department of Defense, United States Air Force, Lockheed Martin Corporation, The Boeing Company, L-3 Communications Holdings, Inc., the Middle River Aircraft Systems subsidiary of General Electric Company, and other aircraft manufacturers, aerospace companies, and defense contractors.  The Company supplies structural aircraft parts for military aircraft such as the P-3 Orion, and wide-body commercial airliners such as the Boeing747.
 
The Company is an emerging world class supplier of complex structural airframe machined components and assemblies for commercial and military aircraft builders in the United States and around the world.  PAI specializes in engineering, and manufacturing of precision computerized numerical control (“CNC”) machined multiaxis structural aircraft components, with tolerances of up to +/-.0001” on ferrous and non-ferrous metals.
 
PAI’s capabilities include high speed three, four and five axis precision CNC machining of titanium, aluminum, stainless steel, and nickel-chromium-based superalloys.  PAI’s aircraft component products include wing ribs, stringers, spars, longerons, bulkheads, frames, engine mounts, chords, and fittings.  In addition, PAI designs and fabricates tools and fixtures.

The Company continues to incur operating losses for each of the periods ended June 30, 2010 and 2009. This was a result of a dramatic decrease in sales. The Company's current strategy is to focus solely on aerospace and defense, to increase orders through current customers and sales methods, and to partner with leading aerospace and defense manufacturers throughout the world to jointly bid and supply aircraft, parts and components to major defense contractors and the U.S. military. However, significant growth will require additional funds in the form of debt or equity, or a combination thereof. The Company's growth strategy also includes strategic mergers in addition to growing the current business. A significant acquisition will require additional financing.

  RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE THREE AND SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2010 COMPARED TO MARCH 31, 2009.

     Net Revenues .  The Company generated net revenues of $694,315 and  $1,252,005for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010 versus $1,359,630 and $2,414,332 for the same periods of 2009 , which was a $665,315 or 49% decrease in the three months and a $1,162,327 or 48% in the six months.  The decrease is the result of lower sales due to the recession and a tighter credit market.

      Gross (Loss) Profit.   Gross (loss) profit for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, was $101,451 and $(33,507)versus a gross profit of $165,900 and $401,709 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2009.This is a decline of $64,449 or 39% and $435,216 over the comparable periods. The decrease in gross profit  is due to certain continuing fixed overhead expenses necessary to maintain the level of operations, which is not recovered because of the  lower revenues.

      Operating Loss.   Operating loss for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, was $655,191 and $1,661,251 compared to $130,634 and $342,548 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2009. The increase in loss of $524,557 and $1,318,703, respectively, is primarily due to an  increase in operating expenses largely due to the acquisition of PAI and secondarily to the decreased revenues over the comparable periods.

     Interest Expense and Debt Discount Amortization.   Interest expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, was $1,204,023 and $2,177,229 as compared with $952,461 and $1,620,856 for the three months ended June 30, 2009. The increase of 26% and 34% respectively,  in interest expenses is due to additional interest and discount amortization on ten new convertible notes for the six months ended June 30, 2010 and eighteen convertible notes and one note payable issued after the period ended June 30, 2009 (See Note 5and 6). 
 
    Operating Expenses. The Company incurred total operating expenses of $756,642 and $1,627,744 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010 versus $296,534 and $744,257 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2009, which was a $460,108  and a $883,487 increase, respectively. In the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, compared with the three and six months ended June 30, 2009, all the operating expenses increased as follow:

The increase in consulting and other compensation is due primarily to  amortization of 3,000,000 warrants issued to a consultant and 5,000,000 options issued for marketing consulting during the six months ended June 30, 2010. All operating expenses increased due to additional costs related to the operations of Precision Aerostructures, Inc which was acquired in October 2009.

FINANCIAL CONDITION, LIQUIDITY, CAPITAL RESOURCES

As of August 23, 2010, we had $311,458_ in cash on hand. We have reached payment arrangements with many of our creditors to resolve previously past due accounts.

The net decrease in cash during the six months ended June 30, 2010 was $129,492. The cash used in operating activities was $424,218. This was due mainly to a net loss of $3,489,380 offset by non-cash expenses of $1,672,548 related to amortization of debt discount, $306,326 in stock issued for services and $300,056 of depreciation and amortization. Other operating activities that used cash were mainly an increase in accounts receivable of $63,741 and a decrease in billings in excess of costs of  $149,849.   These were offset by an increase of accounts payable and accrued liabilities and interest of $773,574 and a decrease in prepaid expenses and other current liabilities of $101,043.

 
26

 

No cash was used in investing activities

Cash provided by financing activities was $294,726 mainly from the issuance of convertible notes with net proceeds of $570,000 offset by principal payments on notes and capital leases of $326,624.

The net decrease in cash during the six months ended June 30, 2009 was $31,889.

 For the six months ended June 30, 2009, the cash provided by financing activities was $745,592, compared with $30,844 in the six months ended June 30, 2008. For the six months ended June 30, 2009, $777,481 cash was used by operating activities.
 
Going Concern

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates, among other things, the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. As of and the for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, the Company has a net loss of approximately $3,489,000, an accumulated deficit of approximately $30,341,000, and working capital deficit of approximately $11,649,000 and was in default on several notes payable (see Note 6) and had events of default on its CAMOFI and CAMHZN debt (see Note 5).   These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The Company intends to fund operations through anticipated increased sales which management believes may be insufficient to fund its capital expenditures, working capital and other cash requirements for the year ending December 31, 2010. Therefore, the Company will be required to seek additional funds to finance its long-term operations in the form of debt and equity financing which the Company believes is available to it.  The successful outcome of future activities cannot be determined at this time and there is no assurance that if achieved, the Company will have sufficient funds to execute its intended business plan or generate positive operating results.
 
 In response to these problems, management has taken the following actions:
 
 
·
continued its aggressive program for selling its products;

 
·
continued to implement plans to further reduce operating costs; and

 
·
is seeking investment capital through the public and private markets.
 
The condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to the carrying amounts related to recoverability and classification of assets or the amount and classification of liabilities that might result should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
 
INFLATION AND CHANGING PRICES

The Company does not foresee any adverse effects on its earnings as a result of inflation or changing prices.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The preparation of financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make judgments, assumptions and estimates that affect the amounts reported in our condensed consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes. The amounts of assets and liabilities reported on our balance sheet and the amounts of revenues and expenses reported for each of our fiscal periods are affected by estimates and assumptions, which are used for, but not limited to, the accounting for revenue recognition, accounts receivable, doubtful accounts and inventories. Actual results could differ from these estimates. The accounting policies stated below are significantly affected by judgments, assumptions and estimates used in the preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements. See Note 1 for significant accounting policies.
 
Other significant accounting policies not involving the same level of measurement uncertainties as those discussed above, are nevertheless important to an understanding of the consolidated financial statements. The policies related to consolidation and loss contingencies require difficult judgments on complex matters that are often subject to multiple sources of authoritative guidance. Certain of these matters are among topics currently under reexamination by accounting standards setters and regulators. Although no specific conclusions reached by these standards setters appear likely to cause a material change in our accounting policies, outcomes cannot be predicted with confidence. Also see Note 1 of Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, which discusses accounting policies that must be selected by management when there are acceptable alternatives.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We conducted an evaluation under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer, who is also our Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. The term “disclosure controls and procedures,” as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“Exchange Act”), means controls and other procedures of a company that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the company in the reports it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures also include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the company’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer concluded as of June 30, 2010 that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective at the reasonable assurance level due to the material weaknesses discussed immediately below.

 
27

 

Material Weaknesses

(1)   We had not effectively implemented comprehensive entity-level internal controls, as evidenced by the following deficiencies:
  
·   We did not establish an independent Audit Committee who are responsible for the oversight of the financial reporting process, nor was an Audit Committee Charter defined.  At the current time we do not have any independent members of the Board who could comprise this committee.

·   We did not establish an adequate Whistle Blower program for  the receipt, retention, and treatment of complaints received by the issuer regarding accounting, internal accounting controls, or auditing matters; and the confidential, anonymous submission by employees of the issuer of concerns regarding questionable accounting or auditing matters to the Audit Committee and Board of Directors.
 
· We did not have an individual on our Board, nor on the Audit Committee, who meets the “Financial Expert” criteria.
 
· We did not maintain documentation evidencing quarterly or other meetings between the Board, senior financial managers and our outside general counsel.  Such meetings include reviewing and approving quarterly and annual filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission and reviewing on-going activities to determine if there are any potential audit related issues which may warrant involvement and follow-up action by the Board.

·  We did not follow a formal fraud assessment process to identify and design adequate internal controls to mitigate those risks not deemed to be acceptable.

·  We did not conduct annual performance reviews or evaluations of our management and staff employees.

   (2)   We did not have a sufficient complement of personnel with appropriate training and experience in GAAP, as evidenced by the following deficiencies:

·  We do not have a formally trained Chief Financial Officer who is responsible for the oversight of the accounting function.  Currently the CEO is responsible for this function, but has not had formal accounting or auditing experience.

·  The Controller is the only individual with technical accounting experience in our company but is limited in the exposure to SEC filings and disclosures and is not a full-time employee of the Company.

· We have not consulted with other outside parties with accounting experience to assist us in the SEC filings and disclosures. As a result, our independent registered public accounting firm recorded numerous adjusting entries.

(3) We did not adequately segregate the duties of different personnel within our accounting group due to an insufficient complement of staff and inadequate management oversight.

(4)   We did not adequately design internal controls as follows:

 
·
The controls identified in the process documentation were not designed effectively and had no evidence of operating effectiveness for testing purposes.
 
·
The controls identified in the process documentation did not cover all the risks for the specific process.
 
·
The controls identified in the process documentation did not cover all applicable assertions for the significant accounts.

 
28

 

(5)   Due to the material weaknesses identified at our entity level we did not test whether our financial activity level controls or our information technology general controls were operating sufficiently to identify a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, that may result in a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the financial statements would not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

On April 7, 2010, our Board of Directors began taking major steps in correcting these deficiencies and created an Audit Committee, a Compensation Committee and Nominating and Governance Committee, and adopted a Code of Ethics applicable to all senior executives.
 
CHANGES IN INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING

There have been no significant changes in the Company's internal control over financial reporting during the Company's most recent fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Inherent limitations exist in any system of internal control including the possibility of human error and the potential of overriding controls. Even effective internal controls can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation. The effectiveness of an internal control system may also be affected by changes in conditions.

PART II.  OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1.     Legal Proceedings

On July 12, 2010, NCR’s landlord filed an unlawful detainer action against it in Los Angeles County Superior Court, Fan v. New Century Remanufacturing, Inc., et al ., Case No. VC056735, to recover $391,000 in past due rent and possession of its facilities in Santa Fe Springs, California.  Although the case remains pending, we have sold our interest in NCR on August 23, 2010.  Litigation can be expensive and unpredictable, and there can be no assurance regarding the outcome of any case.  However , we do not believe we should have any liability in a connection with this action.

Item 1A.  Risk Factors

In addition to the risk factors set forth in our most recent annual report, recent developments have resulted in further risks, including the risk factors listed below. Risks and uncertainties in addition to those we describe below, that may not be presently known to us, or that we currently believe are immaterial, may also harm our business and operations. If any of these risks occur, our business, results of operations and financial condition could be harmed, the price of our common stock could decline, and future events and circumstances could differ significantly from those anticipated in the forward-looking statements contained in this report.

Our response to the KC-X Tanker Modernization Program request for proposal may be rejected or disqualified by the U.S. Air Force.

The U.S. Air Force rejected our esponse to the request for proposal (RFP) for the KC-X Tanker Modernization Program as untimely.  We have filed a protest with the General Accounting Office (GAO).  The GAO or the Air Force may find that our proposal was not timely submitted, does not meet all mandatory RFP requirements, that we do not have qualified subcontractors and teaming partners, that we are not a capable and responsible contractor, that we have not obtained or processed the classified information that is needed to prepare a proposal, that we have not demonstrated that the company has the facility and personnel clearances that are prerequisites to receiving, handling and storing classified information, and that our failure to meet the proposal submittal deadline was attributable to our failure to act diligently and promptly.  In addition, the Air Force may determine that Antonov Company is not an acceptable subcontractor, that required teaming agreements have not been entered into, and that using a Ukranian commercial aircraft as the basis for a KC-X tanker proposal is unacceptable, that the aircraft we have bid is too new or is not adequately designed, manufactured or certified, or that adequate documentation, data and information have not been provided in support of the bid.  For any or all of these reasons, the Air Force may not select our bid, may disqualify our bid, or may refuse to consider it on the merits, or at all.  The Air Force has broad discretion in interpreting the requirements of the RFP.  Contesting any negative determination would be time consuming, difficult and expensive, with uncertain results, and even attempting such a challenge may exceed our limited resources.  If we were successful in the bid, other bidders could challenge the process, our capabilities, or the adequacy of our submissions, which might also result in a denial or disqualification of our bid.  If our bid is denied or disqualified for any reason, it would have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

 
29

 

We are dependent on Antonov to supply the AN-112KC aircraft and components, and information necessary for our RFP response.

We are dependent upon Antonov Company in Kiev, Ukraine to supply the AN-112KC aircraft and components for  our RFP response, and to supply the information necessary for the bid process.  Designing and manufacturing new aircraft, or modifying existing aircraft to meet new requirements, is time consuming, difficult and expensive, with uncertain results.  We cannot give any assurance that the information supplied by Antonov will be adequate or sufficient to meet the RFP requirements, or that Antonov will timely deliver the planes if our bid is successful.  If Antonov fails to perform for any reason, we would likely be unable to win the bid or supply the planes if selected, which would have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

We face competition from companies which may have greater resources or better technologies than we do.

Two large, established, well funded, aerospace corporations, The Boeing Company and The European Aeronautic Defense and Space Company N.V. (EADS), are bidding on the RFP utilizing existing wide body commercial airliners as the basis for their KC-X tanker proposals.  Both designs are advanced and well developed, and both companies have invested considerable resources into designing their tankers and in preparing their responses to the RFP.  Both companies spent substantially more time, money and effort preparing their RFP responses than we did, and it is highly likely that their responses will be significantly more thorough, detailed and compliant than our response.  In addition, both companies have devoted substantial effort to political lobbying with legislators and the Department of Defense, and developing close relationships with industry experts and members of the press.  These advantages may prove insurmountable, and it may be impossible for us to compete with their proposals, or even to submit a response deemed minimally acceptable by the U.S. Air Force.  If any of these were the case, we could be unsuccessful in our efforts to obtain the bid, which would have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

 Item 2.     Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds

 On August 20, 2010 we issued 1 million shares of common stock to two consultants who coordinate our efforts with Antonov Company in Kiev, Ukraine, and agreed to issue an additional 1 million shares if they meet designated performance criteria.  The issuance was exempt from registration as a transaction by an issuer not involving any public offering.

On August 20, 2010, we instructed our transfer agent to issue 5 million shares and agreed to issue an additional 10 million shares to Omnicom Holdings pursuant to a stipulated settlement in an action filed by Omnicom for a $1.5 million commission claimed due in connection with our agreement with Anotonov.  The issuance was exempt from registration pursuant to Section 3(a)(10) of the Securities Act as an issuance   approved by a court after a hearing upon the fairness of its terms and conditions.

Item 3.     Defaults Upon Senior Securities

None.

Item 5.     Other Information

Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

On August 18, 2010, we entered into a Strategic Cooperation Agreement with AVIC International Holding Corporation.  We have also entered into a Confidentiality and Non-Circumvention Agreement.
