EXPLANATORY NOTE

We are filing this Amendment No. 1 of Form 10-Q/A (the “Amended 10-Q”) to our quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the period ended June 30, 2011 (the “Original Report”), as amended and filed with the SEC on December 23, 2011, to primarily restate the unaudited interim financial statements for the period ended June 30, 2011 included in the Original Report as a result of certain accounting errors identified by management. The Company first addressed these errors in the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on March 21, 2012 (the “Non-reliance 8-K”). The restatement is required as a result of accounting errors relating to the Agreement and Plan of Merger involving the Company and Midwest Energy Emissions Corp., a North Dakota corporation, on June 21, 2011. The prior accounting incorrectly accounted for which entity survived the transaction in the recording of the merger, which was treated as a reverse merger for accounting purposes. Except as otherwise reflected below, this Amendment speaks as of the filing date of the Original Report and does not reflect events that may have occurred subsequent to the filing of the Original Report. During the preparation of this Amended 10-Q (subsequent to the filings of the Non-reliance 8-K) additional errors associated with the recording of liabilities for shares issued for consulting services, depreciation of assets and capitalization of interest were also identified and those corrections have been reported herein. In addition, certain expenses have been reclassified on the statement of operations from the Original Report to reflect the expense classifications and descriptions used in the 2011 Form 10-K filed with the SEC on April 12, 2012. As a result, the financial tables included in Non-reliance 8-K should no longer be relied upon. In addition, please see note 16 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Subsequent Events) regarding recent developments related to advances payable to certain shareholders and new employment agreements entered into with our senior management.

Midwest Energy Emissions Corp. and Subsidiaries

(A Development Stage Company)

Notes to Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements

Note 1 - Organization

Midwest Energy Emissions Corp.

Midwest Energy Emissions Corp. (the “Company") was organized under the laws of the State of Utah on July 19, 1983 under the name of Digicorp. Pursuant to shareholder approval, on October 6, 2006, the Board of Directors of the Company approved and authorized the Company to enter into an Agreement and Plan of Merger by and between the Company and Digicorp, Inc., a Delaware corporation and newly formed wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company that was incorporated under the Delaware General Corporation Law for the purpose of effecting a change of domicile. Effective February 22, 2007, the Company changed its domicile from Utah to Delaware with the name of the surviving corporation being Digicorp, Inc.

Reverse Merger

On June 21, 2011, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with Midwest Energy Emissions Corp., a North Dakota corporation (“Midwest Energy Emissions”) pursuant to which at closing China Youth Media Merger Sub, Inc., the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary formed for the purpose of such transaction (the “Merger Sub”), merged into Midwest Energy Emissions , the result of which Midwest Energy Emissions would become the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary (the “Merger”). The Merger closed effective on June 21, 2011 (the “Closing”). As a result of the Closing and the Merger, the Merger Sub merged with and into Midwest Energy Emissions with Midwest Energy Emissions surviving. Effective at the time of the Closing, Midwest Energy Emissions changed its name to MES, Inc. For accounting purposes, the Merger was treated as a reverse merger and a recapitalization of the Company. See Note 4 for further discussion.

Pursuant to a Certificate of Amendment to our Certificate of Incorporation filed with the State of Delaware and effective as of October 7, 2011, the Company (i) changed its corporate name from “China Youth Media, Inc.” to “Midwest Energy Emissions Corp.”, and (ii) effected a reverse stock split of all the outstanding shares of our common stock at an exchange ratio of one for one hundred ten (1:110) (the “Reverse Stock Split”) and changed the number of our authorized shares of common stock, par value $.001 per share, from 500,000,000 to 100,000,000.

No adjustment to share or per share amounts has been reflected in the accompanying financial statements which resulted from the Reverse Stock Split.

Midwest Energy Emissions Corp

On December 17, 2008, Midwest Energy Emissions Corp. (a corporation in the development stage) was incorporated in the State of North Dakota. Midwest Energy Emissions is engaged in the business of developing and commercializing state of the art control technologies relating to the capture and control of mercury emissions from coal fired boilers in the United States and Canada.

Dissolution of subsidiaries

Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, the Company is in the process of dissolving the following entities.

•

Youth Media (BVI) Ltd.

•

Youth Media (Hong Kong) Limited

•

Youth Media (Beijing) Limited

•

Rebel Crew Films, Inc.

operations, including the impairment of certain assets of discontinued operations, have been reflected in the consolidated financial statements. The Company does not expect to derive any revenues from the discontinued entities in the future and does not expect to incur any significant ongoing operating expenses.

Note 2 - Summary Of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in the United States of America ("GAAP").

Development Stage Company

The Company is considered to be in the development stage as defined by Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 915 Development Stage Entities. The Company has devoted substantially all of its efforts to the corporate formation, the raising of capital and attempting to generate customers for the sale of the Company’s products.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments and other short-term investments with maturity of three months or less, when purchased, to be cash equivalents. The Company maintains its operating cash in two accounts with one financial institution, which at times may exceed federally insured limits.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are stated at cost. When retired or otherwise disposed, the related carrying value and accumulated depreciation are removed from the respective accounts and the net difference less any amount realized from disposition, is reflected in earnings. For financial statement purposes, property and equipment are recorded at cost and depreciated using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives of 3 to 5 years.

Expenditures for repairs and maintenance which do not materially extend the useful lives of property and equipment are charged to operations. Management periodically reviews the carrying value of its property and equipment for impairment.

The Company capitalizes interest cost on borrowings incurred during new construction or upgrade of qualifying assets. Capitalized interest is added to the cost of the underlying assets and is amortized over the useful lives of the assets. For the year to date ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, the Company capitalized $35,151 and zero, respectively of interest in connection with a capital expansion project.

Recoverability of Long-Lived and Intangible Assets

The Company has adopted ASC 360-10, Property, Plant and Equipment (“ASC 360-10”). ASC 360-10 requires that long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangibles held and used by the Company be reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable.

the carrying value of intangible assets would be adjusted, based on estimates of future discounted cash flows. ASC 360-10 also requires assets to be disposed of be reported at the lower of the carrying amount or the fair value less costs to sell.

Goodwill

The Company evaluates the carrying value of goodwill during the fourth quarter of each year and between annual evaluations if events occur or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of the reporting unit below its carrying amount. Such circumstances could include, but are not limited to (1) a significant adverse change in legal factors or in business climate, (2) unanticipated competition, or (3) an adverse action or assessment by a regulator. When evaluating whether goodwill is impaired, the Company compares the fair value of the reporting unit to which the goodwill is assigned to the reporting unit’s carrying amount, including goodwill. The fair value of the reporting unit is estimated using a combination of the income, or discounted cash flows, approach and the market approach, which utilizes comparable companies’ data. If the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value, then the amount of the impairment loss must be measured. The impairment loss would be calculated by comparing the implied fair value of reporting unit goodwill to its carrying amount. In calculating the implied fair value of reporting unit goodwill, the fair value of the reporting unit is allocated to all of the other assets and liabilities of that unit based on their fair values. The excess of the fair value of a reporting unit over the amount assigned to its other assets and liabilities is the implied fair value of goodwill. An impairment loss would be recognized when the carrying amount of goodwill exceeds its implied fair value. In conjunction with our reverse merger, the Company evaluated the carrying amount of the resulting goodwill and determined that the entire amount of goodwill of $3,555,304 was impaired.

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company accounts for stock-based compensation awards in accordance with the provisions of ASC 718, Compensation—Stock Compensation (“ASC 718”), which requires equity-based compensation, be reflected in the consolidated financial statements over the period of service which is typically the vesting period based on the estimated fair value of the awards.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company’s financial instruments include cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued expenses, advances payable from related parties and debt. The fair value of these financial instruments approximate their carrying values due to their short maturities.

Foreign Currency Transactions

The Company's functional currency is the United States Dollar (the "US Dollar"). In the past, with the Company's operations in China, the Company entered into transactions denominated in foreign currencies, such as, the People's Republic of China and SAR Hong Kong, whose principal units are the Renminbi ("RMB") and the Hong Kong Dollar ("HK Dollar"), respectively. However, pursuant to the terms of the Merger agreement, the Company is in the process of dissolving its foreign entities.

Transactions denominated in currencies other than the US Dollar are re-measured to the US Dollar at the period-end exchange rates. Any associated transactional currency re-measurement gains and losses are recognized in current operations.

Revenue Recognition

The Company records revenue from sales in accordance with ASC 605, Revenue Recognition (“ASC 605”). The criteria for recognition are as follows:

1. Persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists;

2. Delivery has occurred or services have been rendered;

3. The seller’s price to the buyer is fixed or determinable; and

4. Collectability is reasonably assured.

Determination of criteria (3) and (4) will be based on management's judgments regarding the fixed nature of the selling prices of the products delivered and the collectability of those amounts. Provisions for discounts and rebates to customers, estimated returns and allowances, and other adjustments will be provided for in the same period the related sales are recorded.

The Company generated all revenue for the six months ended September 30, 2010 in connection with a 2009 sub-award project from the University of North Dakota Energy and Environmental Research Center for “Full Scale Testing of Sorbent Injection Technology on Mercury Control.” We recognized revenue for services performed upon completion of the test work and approval of the invoices submitted to the University of North Dakota Energy and Environment Research Center.

Income Taxes

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the consolidated financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets, including tax loss and credit carryforwards, and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. Deferred income tax expense represents the change during the period in the deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities. The components of the deferred tax assets and liabilities are individually classified as current and non-current based on their characteristics. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.

The recognition, measurement and disclosure of uncertain tax positions recognized in an enterprise’s consolidated financial statements is based on a more-likely-than-not recognition threshold. The Company did not have any unrecognized tax benefits at June 30, 2011. When necessary, the Company would accrue penalties and interest related to unrecognized tax benefits as a component of income tax expense.

The Company or one of its subsidiaries files income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and three state jurisdictions. The Company is no longer subject to U.S. federal examinations for years prior to 2008 or state tax examinations for years prior to 2007. Prior to the reverse merger, the MES, Inc. was taxed as an S corporation and income and losses were passed through to the stockholders.

Basic and Diluted Loss Per Common Share

Basic net loss per common share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted loss per share reflects the potential dilution from common stock equivalents, such as stock issuable pursuant to the exercise of stock options and warrants. There were no dilutive potential common shares as of June 30, 2011, because the Company incurred net losses and basic and diluted loss per common share were the same.

Concentration of Credit Risk

Financial instruments that subject the Company to credit risk consist of cash and equivalents on deposit with financial institutions and accounts receivable. The Company’s excess cash as of June 30, 2011 is on deposit in a non-interest-bearing transaction account that is fully covered by FDIC deposit insurance.

Contingencies

Certain conditions may exist which may result in a loss to the Company, but which will only be resolved when one or more future events occur or fail to occur. The Company’s management assess such contingent liabilities, and such assessment

inherently involves an exercise of judgment. In assessing loss contingencies related to legal proceedings that are pending against the Company, or unasserted claims that may result in such proceedings, the Company’s legal counsel evaluates the perceived merits of any legal proceedings or unasserted claims as well as the perceived merits of the amount of relief sought or expected to be sought therein.

If the assessment of a contingency indicates that it is probable that a material loss has been incurred and the amount of the liability can be estimated, the estimated liability would be accrued in the Company’s consolidated financial statements. If the assessment indicates that a potentially material loss contingency is not probable but is reasonably possible, or is probable but cannot be estimated, the nature of the contingent liability, together with an estimate of the range of possible loss if determinable and material, would be disclosed.

Loss contingencies considered remote are generally not disclosed unless they arise from guarantees, in which case the guarantees would be disclosed.

Statement of operations expense classification

Certain expenses have been reclassified on the statement of operations from the previously filed Form 10-Q/A to reflect the expense classifications and descriptions used in the 2011 Form 10-K filed on April 12, 2012.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

Management does not expect the adoption of recently issued accounting pronouncements to have a significant impact on our results of operations, financial position or cash flow.

Note 3 - Going Concern

The accompanying consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2011 have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. From the period of inception (December 17, 2008) through June 30, 2011, the Company has experienced a net loss, negative cash flows from operations and has an accumulated deficit of $5 million. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The Company is converting some of its short term liabilities to long term convertible debt-to-equity and intends to raise near term financing to fund future operations through a convertible debt-to-equity offering. The Company also intends to raise additional equity financing to fund future operations. There is no assurance that its plan can be implemented; or that the results will be of a sufficient level necessary to meet the Company’s ongoing cash needs. No assurances can be given that the Company can obtain sufficient working capital through borrowings or that the continued implementation of its business plan will generate sufficient revenues in the future to sustain ongoing operations.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that may result from the possible inability of the Company to continue as a going concern.

Note 4 – Reverse Merger

Merger Agreement

On June 21, 2011, the Company entered into a Merger Agreement with Midwest Energy Emissions pursuant to which at closing the Merger Sub, would merge into Midwest Energy Emissions, the result of which Midwest Energy Emissions would become the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary (“Acquisition”). The Merger closed effective on June 21, 2011.

As a result of the Acquisition, the former stockholders of Midwest Energy Emissions received an aggregate number of shares of China Youth Media common stock constituting approximately 90% of the outstanding shares of China Youth Media common stock, after giving effect to the Acquisition. Warrants and options to purchase China Youth Media common stock that were outstanding prior to the Acquisition remained outstanding following the Acquisition. These consist of warrants to purchase a total of 24,092 shares of China Youth Media common stock with prices ranging from $3.30 to $9.00 and options to

purchase a total of 371,818 shares of China Youth Media common stock with prices ranging from $14.30 to $22.

In connection with the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, and pursuant to Midwest Energy Emissions’ obligations under a Business Consulting Agreement dated March 18, 2011, on July 6, 2011, the Company issued 45,455 shares of our common stock to Eastern Sky, LLC as compensation for consulting services rendered in connection with the transaction. The shares were valued at $77,500. The Lebrecht Group, APLC received a cash fee of $22,315 and 18,258 shares of common stock as compensation for legal services rendered in connection with the Merger Agreement. The shares were valued at $31,130. Total transactions costs incurred in connection with the Merger Agreement were $318,835.

Purchase Accounting

The Acquisition was accounted for using the purchase method of accounting as a reverse acquisition. In a reverse acquisition, the post-acquisition net assets of the surviving combined company includes the historical cost basis of the net assets of the accounting acquirer (Midwest Energy Emissions) plus the fair value of the net assets of the accounting acquiree (China Youth Media). Further, under the purchase method, the purchase price is allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values and the excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair value of the identifiable net assets is allocated to any intangible assets with the remaining excess purchase price over net assets acquired allocated to goodwill.

The fair value of the consideration transferred in the Acquisition was $2,777,778 and was calculated as the number of shares of common stock that Midwest Energy Emissions would have had to issue in order for China Youth Media shareholders to hold a 10% equity interest in the combined Company post-acquisition, multiplied by the estimated fair value of the Company’s common stock on the acquisition date. The estimated fair value of the Company’s common stock was based on the offering price of the common stock sold in a private placement of share subscriptions which was completed most recently prior to the merger. This price was determined to be the best indication of fair value on that date since the price was based on an arm’s length negotiation with a group consisting of both new and existing investors that had been advised of the pending Acquisition and assumed similar liquidity risk as those investors holding the majority of shares being valued as purchase consideration. The following table summarizes the Company’s determination of fair values of the assets acquired and the liabilities as of the date of acquisition.

Consideration - issuance of securities	$ 2,777,778

Cash	$ 11,150
Prepaid expenses and other assets	3,876
Fixed assets	5,706
Accounts payable and accrued liabilities	(748,258)
Notes Payable	(50,000)

Total purchase price	$ 2,777,778

The Company performed an impairment test related to goodwill as of the date of the merger and it was determined that goodwill was impaired. At that time, the Company recorded a charge to operations for the amount of the impairment of $3,555,304.

Pursuant to a Certificate of Amendment to our Certificate of Incorporation filed with the State of Delaware and effective as of October 7, 2011, the Company (i) changed its corporate name from “China Youth Media, Inc.” to “Midwest Energy Emissions Corp.”, and (ii) effected a reverse stock split of all the outstanding shares of our common stock at an exchange ratio of one for one hundred ten (1:110) and changed the number our authorized shares of common stock, par value $.001 per share, from 500,000,000 to 100,000,000.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our discussion and analysis of our financial conditions and results of operation are based upon the accompanying financial statements which have been prepared in accordance with the generally accepted accounting principles in the U.S. The preparation of the consolidated financial statements requires that we make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. Management evaluates on an on-going basis our estimates with respect to the valuation allowances for accounts receivable, income taxes, accrued expenses and equity instrument valuation, for example. We base these estimates on various assumptions and experience that we believe to be reasonable. The following critical accounting policies are those that are important to the presentation of our consolidated financial condition and consolidated results of operations and require management’s most difficult, complex, or subjective judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates of matters that are inherently uncertain.

The following critical accounting policies affect our more significant estimates used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements and, in particular, our most critical accounting policy relates to recognition of revenue and the valuation of our stock based compensation.

Revenue Recognition

The Company records revenue from sales in accordance with ASC 605, Revenue Recognition (“ASC 605”). The criteria for recognition are as follows:

1. Persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists;

2. Delivery has occurred or services have been rendered;

3. The seller’s price to the buyer is fixed or determinable; and

4. Collectability is reasonably assured.

Determination of criteria (3) and (4) will be based on management’s judgments regarding the fixed nature of the selling prices of the products delivered and the collectability of those amounts. Provisions for discounts and rebates to customers, estimated returns and allowances, and other adjustments will be provided for in the same period the related sales are recorded.

Recoverability of Long-Lived and Intangible Assets

Events relating to recoverability may include significant unfavorable changes in business conditions, recurring losses or a forecasted inability to achieve break-even operating results over an extended period. The Company evaluates the recoverability of long-lived assets based upon forecasted undiscounted cash flows. Should impairment in value be indicated, the carrying value of the Long-Lived and or intangible assets would be adjusted, based on estimates of future discounted cash flows. Impairment charges of $400,000 and zero were recognized for the quarters ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. Due to the short-term idling of both power plant units at the Company’s commercial customer, the Company evaluated the recoverability of the carrying value of the Company’s’ equipment at that site. Based on a review of the discounted expected cash flows associated with the value contract with the customer, an impairment charge was recorded during the quarter ended June 30, 2011 against the value of the equipment. ASC 360-10 also requires assets to be disposed of be reported at the lower of the carrying amount or the fair value less costs to sell.

Goodwill

The Company evaluates the carrying value of goodwill during the fourth quarter of each year and between annual evaluations if events occur or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of the reporting unit below its carrying amount. Such circumstances could include, but are not limited to (1) a significant adverse change in legal factors or in business climate; (2) unanticipated competition, or; (3) an adverse action or assessment by a regulator. When evaluating whether goodwill is impaired, the Company compares the fair value of the reporting unit to which the goodwill is assigned to the reporting unit’s carrying amount, including goodwill. The fair value of the reporting unit is estimated using a combination of the income, or discounted cash flows, approach and the market approach, which utilizes comparable companies’ data. If the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value, then the amount of the impairment loss must be measured. The impairment loss would be calculated by comparing the implied fair value of reporting unit goodwill to its carrying amount. In calculating the implied fair value of reporting unit goodwill, the fair value of the reporting unit is allocated to all of the other assets and liabilities of that unit based on their fair values. The excess of the fair value of a reporting unit over the amount assigned to its other assets and liabilities is the implied fair value of goodwill. An impairment loss would be recognized when the carrying amount of goodwill exceeds its implied fair value. In conjunction with our reverse merger, the Company evaluated the carrying amount of the resulting goodwill and determined that the entire amount of goodwill of $3,555,000 was impaired.

Stock-Based Compensation

We have adopted the provisions of Share-Based Payment, which requires that share-based payments be reflected as an expense based upon the grant-date fair value of those grants. Accordingly, the fair value of each option grant, non-vested stock award and shares issued under our employee stock purchase plan, were estimated on the date of grant. We estimate the fair value of these grants using a Black-Scholes model which requires us to make certain estimates in the assumptions used in this model, including the expected term the award will be held, the volatility of the underlying common stock, the discount rate, dividends and the forfeiture rate. The expected term represents the period of time that grants and awards are expected to be outstanding. Expected volatilities were based on historical volatility of our stock. The risk-free interest rate approximates the U.S. treasury rate corresponding to the expected term of the option. Dividends were assumed to be zero. Forfeiture estimates are based on historical data. These inputs are based on our assumptions, which we believe to be reasonable but that include complex and subjective variables. Other reasonable assumptions could result in different fair values for our stock-based awards. Stock-based compensation expense, as determined using a Black-Scholes option-pricing model, is recognized on a straight-line basis over the service period, net of estimated forfeitures. To the extent that actual results or revised estimates differ from the estimates used, those amounts will be recorded as a cumulative adjustment in the period that estimates are revised.

Results of Operations

Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, the Company is in the process of dissolving the following entities that remained in existence after the Merger of Midwest and China Youth Media, Inc.:

•

Youth Media (BVI) Ltd.

•

Youth Media (Hong Kong) Limited

•

Youth Media (Beijing) Limited

•

Rebel Crew Films, Inc.

The operations and cash flows of these subsidiaries have been eliminated from the accounts of the Company’s ongoing operations and major classes of assets and liabilities related thereto have been segregated. The losses from discontinued operations, including the impairment of certain assets of discontinued operations, have been reflected in the consolidated financial statements of this report. The Company does not expect to derive any revenues from the discontinued entities in the future and does not expect to incur any significant ongoing operating expenses.

Revenues

Sales - We generated no revenues three and six months ended June 30, 2011 and zero and $7,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010 respectively. We generated all of our revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2010 in connection with a 2009 sub-award project from the University of North Dakota Energy and Environmental Research Center for “Full Scale Testing of Sorbent Injection Technology on Mercury Control.” We recognized revenue for services performed upon completion of the test work and approval of the invoices submitted to the University of North Dakota Energy and Environment Research Center.

Operating Expenses

See Recent Developments in Note 1 Organization in the Notes to the Financial Statements as filed herewith to our Form 10-Q, which describes that pursuant to the Merger Agreement, and for accounting purposes, the Merger was treated as a reverse merger and a recapitalization of the Company.

Costs and expenses were $4,223,000 and $53,000 during the quarter ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively and were $4,481,000 and $142,000 during the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. The increase in costs and expenses is attributable to (i) the impairment of goodwill of $3,555,000 discussed below, and (ii) the increase in operating expenses is attributable almost entirely to marketing and development expenses, professional fees and general and administrative expenses which when taken together all are associated with our recent efforts to commercializing our mercury emissions control technologies from coal fired boilers in the United States and Canada.

License Maintenance Fees were $37,500 and $25,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively, and $75,000 and $50,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. The expenses in these periods relates to the amortization of the annual maintenance fee for the respective year.

Marketing and development expenses were $121,000 and $2,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively, and were $195,000 and $2,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. The increase in marketing and development expenses during the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 as compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2010 is primarily attributed to our increase efforts to commercialize our mercury emissions control technologies and the increase expenses associated with expanding our operations.

Selling, general and administrative expenses were $57,000 and $26,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively, and were $115,000 and $26,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses during these periods over the same periods in the prior year is primarily attributed to our increase efforts to commercialize our mercury emissions control technologies and the increase expenses associated with expanding our operations.

Professional fees were $428,000 and zero for the three months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively, and were $485,000 and $64,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. The increase in professional fees during these periods over the same periods in the prior year is primarily attributed to our increase efforts to commercialize our mercury emissions control technologies and the increase expenses associated with expanding our operations.

Goodwill impairment expenses were $3,555,000 and for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2011. The expense was related to the determination of management that the goodwill created in the Merger was impaired.

Net Loss

For the quarter ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 we had a net loss from operations of approximately $4,252,000 and $46,000, respectively and for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 we had a net loss from operations of approximately $4,520,000 and $135,000, respectively. The net loss is primarily attributed to our recent efforts to commercializing our control technologies relating to the capture and control of mercury emissions from coal fired boilers in the United States and Canada and the associated increase in our operations and hiring of employees.

Interest Income and Other, Net

Given our financial constraints and our reliance on financing activities, interest expense related to the financing of capital was $8,000 and zero during the quarter ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. Interest expense related to the financing of capital was $18,000 during the six months ended June 30, 2011 and zero during the six months ended June 30, 2010.

Taxes

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our principal sources of liquidity are cash generated from financing activities. As of June 30, 2011, our cash and cash equivalents were $9,000. We had a working capital deficit of approximately $2.8 million at June 30, 2011 and we continue to have recurring losses. Our anticipated cash needs for working capital and capital expenditures for at least the next twelve months is approximately $5 million. In the past we have primarily relied upon financing activities and loans from related parties to fund our operations. These conditions raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. We are actively seeking sources of additional financing in order to maintain and potentially expand our operations and to fund our debt repayment obligations. Even if we are able to obtain funding, there can be no assurance that a sufficient level of sales will be attained to fund such operations or that unbudgeted costs will not be incurred. Future events, including the problems, delays, expenses and difficulties frequently encountered by similarly situated companies, as well as changes in economic, regulatory or competitive conditions, may lead to cost increases that could make the net proceeds of any new funding and cash flow from operations insufficient to fund our capital requirements. There can be no assurances that we will be able to obtain such additional funding from management or other investors on terms acceptable to us, if at all.

Total assets were $1.1 million at June 30, 2011 versus $97,000 at December 31, 2010. The change in total assets is almost exclusively attributable to recent purchases of heavy equipment related to the deployment of our mercury emissions control technologies from coal fired boilers in the United States and Canada.

Operating activities used $330,000 of cash during the six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $17,000 during the six months ended June 30, 2010. The change in cash used for operating activities resulted primarily from our recent efforts to commercializing our mercury emissions control technologies from coal fired boilers in the United States and Canada and the associated increase in operating expenses.

Investing activities used $757,000 of cash during the six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $0 during the months ended June 30, 2011. This change resulted from the purchase of equipment during the first six months of 2011.

Financing activities provided $1,088,000 during the six months ended June 30, 2011 primarily due to related party advances of $938,000, compared to net cash provided by financing activities of $17,000 during the six months ended June 30, 2010 primarily due to related party advances.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We do not have any off balance sheet arrangements that are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, revenues, results of operations, liquidity or capital expenditures.

ITEM 3 - QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

We are a smaller reporting company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and are not required to provide the information under this item.

ITEM 4 – CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we have evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and Rule 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of June 30, 2011, these disclosure controls and procedures were not effective to ensure that all information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is: (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Commission’s rule and forms; and (ii) accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

During the evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures by our management, our newly appointed Chief Financial Officer, who was appointed by the Board of Directors on October 10, 2011, identified deficiencies in our internal controls and disclosure controls by determining that certain transactions had been recorded in error during the preceding periods. The detection of these errors was contained in the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K as filed with the Commission on November 4, 2011.

We are in the process of improving our internal control over financial reporting in an effort to remediate these deficiencies through the recent appointment of our newly retained Chief Financial Officer and improved supervision and training of our accounting staff. We believe that these efforts will be sufficient to fully remedy these deficiencies and will improve and strengthen our control processes and procedures. Our Chief Financial Officer and other personnel will continue to work with our auditors and other outside advisors to ensure that our control processes and procedures are adequate and effective.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There have been no changes in the company’s internal control over financial reporting during the year that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
