On
August 6, 2009, we completed a private placement with a new investor for a
total of $5 million for 20 million shares of common stock. In conjunction
with the transaction we also entered into a secured loan facility with the
Investor pursuant to a Secured Convertible Promissory Note. The
Note provides for an aggregate principal amount of up to $10 million in
advances to be made to the Company by the Investor prior to October 1,
2012.
|
2)
|
In
June of 2009, we completed a private placement with one of our large
shareholders (two of his controlled entities) for a total of $2 million
for 8 million shares of common stock. One half or $1 million was received
and the other $1 million is due throughout 2010 in accordance with the
terms of the shareholder note receivable. In addition warrants were also
issued to the investors which grant the holders the right to purchase up
to 8,000,000 shares of the Registrant’s Common Stock at a price of $0.50
per share.

FACTORS.”
|
1.
|
We
raised additional capital of $7 million through two private placements and
also entered into a $10 million financing facility for inventory
purchases.
|
2.
|
Advanced
Battery Technologies through its wholly owned subsidiary Wuxi Zhongqiang
Autocycle Co., Ltd, has signed a distribution agreement with us for
advanced, large-format Polymer Lithium-Ion battery technology. Compared to
lead acid batteries, these new batteries make electric vehicles lighter,
faster and more responsive. These are some of the first larger-format
lithium batteries that are in volume production. We will also be
integrating large-format lithium batteries in its pickups and vans as well
as vehicles under development like the Alias
roadster.
|
3.
|
To
help automotive fleets reduce emissions and operating expenses we have
begun distributing a five-passenger van and a new XL Truck both of
which are 4-wheel, 100 percent, plug-in electric vehicles. The new Shuttle
was designed for passenger transport or cargo. The seats are removable so
it can convert into a cargo vehicle. While our new XL Truck was designed
with a roomy cab for two and a sturdy bed platform capable of transporting
800 lbs. for on-road use and up to 1,600 lbs. capacity for private roads
and facilities.
