SUMMARY

The following summary highlights the more detailed information and financial statements appearing elsewhere in this prospectus. It is only a summary, it is not complete and does not convey all of the information you should consider prior to investing in the common stock. We urge you to read the entire prospectus carefully, especially the risks of investing in our common stock as discussed in the "Risk Factors" section beginning on page 8.

Our independent auditors have raised substantial doubt as to Nexia’s ability to continue as a going concern in connection with our financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2005 and December 31, 2004. Nexia has since its inception incurred losses that have resulted in an accumulated deficit of $13,275,599 as of December 31, 2005 and Nexia reported a net loss of $130,548 for the year ended December 31, 2005 and total comprehensive income for the six month period ended June 30, 2006 of $1,878,857.

Nexia’s common stock is deemed to be “penny stock” as that term is defined in Rule 3a51-1 promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Broker-Dealers dealing in penny stock, are required to provide potential investors with a document disclosing the risks of penny stock. Broker-dealers are required to determine whether an investment in a penny stock is a suitable investment for a prospective investor.

Nexia’s subsidiaries currently own and operate a 38,000 square foot retail/office building, an 11,000 square foot office building and a 7,000 square foot retail building. All of these buildings are located in the greater Salt Lake City, Utah area. A subsidiary of the Company has acquired the operations of Black Chandelier, a clothing and life style retail operation with two stores located in the Salt Lake City, Utah market. Two additional retail stores are scheduled for opening by December 1, 2006. Nexia subsidiary, Landis, LLC operates a hair salon that sells Aveda™ products exclusively.

THE OFFERING

Nexia will not receive any proceeds from the sale of the common stock. We will receive the sale price of any common stock we sell to the selling stockholder under the investment agreement with Dutchess Private Equities Fund.

This is a resale registration statement of registered shares to be sold by Dutchess Private Equities Fund

Nexia has entered into an investment agreement (the “Investment Agreement”) with Dutchess Private Equities Fund L.P. (Dutchess” or the “Selling Shareholder”); this agreement is also referred to as an equity line of credit. The Investment Agreement provides that, following notice to Dutchess, Nexia may put to Dutchess up to $10 million in shares of our common stock for a purchase price equal to 95% of the lowest closing best bid price on the Over-the-Counter (“OTC”) Bulletin Board of our common stock during the five day period following that notice. The number of shares that we will be permitted to put pursuant to the Investment Agreement will be either: (a) 200% of the average daily volume of our common stock for the ten trading days prior to the applicable put notice, multiplied by the average of the three daily closing “best bid” prices immediately preceding the day we issue the put, or (b) $100,000; provided that in no event will the put amount be more than $1,000,000 with respect to any single put. (Best Bid is a defined term in the Investment Agreement as the highest posted bid price for the common stock.) In turn, Dutchess has indicated that it will resell the shares of common stock in the open market, resell our shares to other investors through negotiated transactions or hold our shares in its portfolio. This prospectus covers the resale of our shares of common stock by Dutchess either in the open market or to other investors through negotiated transactions.

Any investor purchasing Nexia’s common stock or a prior holder of such shares during this registered offering is likely to suffer a dilution of his or her investment depending on how many of these securities are sold to Dutchess by the Company prior to the purchase by the investor. For more information on the dilutive effect of this offering, please see the discussions in this Prospectus of dilution located at pages twenty one through twenty three.

Nexia’s Placement Agency Agreement with GunnAllen Financial

Nexia has entered into a Placement Agency Agreement with GunnAllen Financial located in Tampa, Florida, whereby Nexia has agreed to pay GunnAllen a minimum of $1,000 up to a maximum of $10,000 for each Put submitted to Dutchess under the Investment Agreement. In exchange for those payments the placement agent shall render consulting services to Nexia with respect to the Investment Agreement and shall be available for consultation in connection with the advances to be requested by Nexia pursuant to the terms of the Investment Agreement. The Placement Agency Agreement is attached hereto as exhibit 10(iii).

RISK FACTORS

An investment in the common stock the selling shareholders are offering to resell is risky. The stock offered in this prospectus inherently involves a high degree of risk, and you should carefully consider the possibility that you may lose your entire investment. Given this possibility, we encourage you to evaluate the following risk factors and all other information contained in this prospectus before buying the common stock of Nexia. Any of the following risks, alone or together, could adversely affect our business, our financial condition, or the results of our operations, and therefore the value of your Nexia common stock.

Risks Related to Nexia’s Business

There is substantial doubt about Nexia’s ability to continue as a going concern due to insufficient revenues to cover our operating costs, which means that we may not be able to continue operations unless we obtain additional funding.

Our independent auditors added a going concern qualification to their report issued in connection with their audit of our December 31, 2005 and 2004 financial statements. The auditors noted in their report that Nexia generated significant losses from operations, had an accumulated deficit of $13,275,599 and a working capital deficit of $971,535 as of December 31, 2005. These factors raised for the auditors substantial doubt about Nexia’s ability to continue as a going concern. These general conditions continued through the first quarter of 2006, resulting in additional deficits in the operations of the Company. During the second quarter of 2006 there was a decrease in the accumulated deficit of $1,095,980.

Management anticipates that Nexia will incur net losses for the year end results for December 31, 2006. To the extent that Nexia does not generate additional revenue from its existing properties, existing retail operations, acquire additional properties that generate revenue, obtain additional funding, that its stock price does not increase, that additional adjustments to decrease operating expenses, then Nexia may not have the ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements which accompany this Prospectus do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Nexia's real estate investments are inherently risky and dependent on rental income.

Real estate investments are inherently risky. The value of a real estate investment company's stock depends largely on the rental income and the capital appreciation generated by the properties which the investment company owns. If our properties do not generate enough cash flow from rental income to meet operating expenses (such as debt service, capital expenditures and tenant improvements), our ability to develop our business and become profitable will be adversely affected.

Income from real estate investments may be adversely affected by a number of factors, including:

w  
the general economic climate and local real estate conditions (such as too much supply or too little demand for rental space, as well as changes in market rental rates);

w  
prospective tenants' perceptions of a building's safety, convenience and attractiveness, or the overall appeal of a particular building;

w  
the property owner's ability to provide adequate management, maintenance and insurance;

w  
expenses for periodically renovating, repairing and re-letting spaces;
 
w  
falling operating costs for competing properties, which would allow them to undercut our rental rates;

w  
rising unemployment rates in the area, which may reduce the demand for rental space;

w  
adverse changes in zoning laws, tax laws, or other laws affecting real estate or businesses in the area;

w  
damage from earthquakes or other natural disasters;

w  
mortgage interest rates and the availability of financing.

Some significant expenses associated with real estate investment (such as mortgage payments, real estate taxes, insurance and maintenance costs) are fixed and generally can not be reduced if circumstances cause lower rental incomes from a building. For example, if we can not meet the mortgage payments, we could lose some or all of our investment in a building due to foreclosure by the holder of the lien on the property.
 
10

 
Our real estate investments have limited liquidity and no certainty of capital appreciation.

Our real estate investments have limited liquidity. Real estate investments in general are relatively illiquid. Our ability to vary our portfolio in response to changes in economic and other conditions will be limited. We cannot ascertain whether we will be able to sell an investment when a sale would be advantageous or necessary. The sale price may not be enough to recoup the amount of our investment. Nexia can provide no assurance that the value of its properties will appreciate.

There are numerous uncertainties in estimating real estate values and prospective appreciation value. The estimated values set forth in appraisals are based on various comparisons to other property sales; predictions about market conditions such as demand, vacancy rates, prospective vacancy rates, renewal terms and other factors; assumptions about the property’s condition, conformance with laws and regulations, absence of material defects; estimates of lease revenues and operating expenses; and other factors. Any significant change in these comparisons, predictions, assumptions, and estimates, most of which are beyond our control, could materially and adversely affect the market values and appreciation potential of our properties.

We compete with substantially larger companies to acquire suitable buildings.

The commercial real estate market is highly competitive. We compete with substantially larger companies for the acquisition, development and operation of properties that fit within the parameters of our business plan. Some of these companies are national or regional companies with far greater resources than ours. The presence of these competitors may significantly impede our business growth or survival.

Nexia's ability to generate enough revenue to operate our business is dependent on the ability to attract tenants and ensure that tenants meet their lease obligations.

Our business would be severely affected resulting from the loss of revenues that would result if our current tenants fail to meet lease obligations or, if upon failure to meet lease obligations, we were unable to enter into new viable leases for the resulting vacant space. Further, if a tenant defaulted on a lease, we might experience a delay before the courts enforced our rights against the tenant. Our ability to lease the space during any court enforced action would be seriously impaired. Failure of a tenant’s business through bankruptcy would also reduce or eliminate our revenue flow. We can provide no assurance that tenants will faithfully meet their lease obligations or that tenants will not be impaired through some form of business failure or otherwise, with the result that our ability to operate our business would be materially and negatively affected. During the 3rd quarter of 2006 the rate of default on tenant’s obligations billed during that period was 8%.

Our ability to satisfy fixed operating costs that may rise over time cannot be reduced in response to any decrease in our rental income, or passed through to our tenants.

Our ability to satisfy fixed operating costs associated with our property could be seriously affected by any rise in expenses such as: mortgage payments, insurance, utilities, cleaning, ventilation, air-conditioning, security, landscaping, building repairs and maintenance. While our tenants must often pay a portion of these escalating costs, there can be no assurance that they will agree to any increase in current fixed costs or that any increase in tenant payments would cover increased operating costs. Our current fixed costs for any future time period cannot be reduced in response to any decrease in rental income resulting from vacancies or non payment of rent and our ability to operate would be severely affected by any increase in the costs associated with owning our property.

All of Nexia’s material real estate holdings are located in the Salt Lake City, Utah market making the Company vulnerable to changes in economic conditions in that market.

All of Nexia’s material real estate holdings are located in the Salt Lake City, Utah market which creates a greater risk of harm from a downturn in that single market as compared to wider more diversified holdings in several geographic areas. Any significant change in the office or retail space in the Salt Lake City market will directly affect Nexia’s real estate operations.

Nexia may invest in properties in other real estate markets outside of the Salt Lake City, Utah area where the Company has no experience.

Nexia may make selected acquisitions or develop properties outside the area of its current focus of Salt Lake City, Utah as appropriate opportunities are located or as they may arise. No area outside of the Salt Lake City has been identified nor has any market area been excluded from consideration. The historical experience of Nexia is in the Salt Lake City market area, and management may not be able to operate successfully in other market areas. Some of the risks in operating in new market areas would include: a lack of market knowledge and understanding of the local economies, an inability to identify promising acquisition or development opportunities, an inability to obtain qualified development and maintenance personnel, and a lack of familiarity with local government and permitting procedures. Any of these factors could cause Nexia to incur costs greater than anticipated and limit the success of any acquisition and development that may be undertaken, which would reduce the Company’s profitability and limit its growth.

Nexia expects to experience significant growth in the future and may not be able to adapt its management and operational systems to adequately integrate the additional properties and operations without unanticipated significant disruption or expense.

Nexia intends to make a significant number of investments in real estate over the next 36 months. As a result of the anticipated future growth, we cannot assure you that the Company will be able to adapt its management, administrative, accounting and operational systems or hire and retain sufficient operational staff to integrate the new properties into the Company and manage any future acquisitions of additional properties without operating disruptions or unanticipated costs. Any future acquisition will generate additional operating expenses that the Company will be required to pay. As Nexia acquires additional properties it will be subject to risks associated with managing new properties, including tenant retention and mortgage defaults. Acquisitions may additionally cause disruptions of operations and divert management’s attention away from day-to-day operations, which could impair relationships with our current tenants and employees. Any failure to successfully integrate future property acquisitions into our portfolio could cause significant disruption or costs, which in turn could reduce the Company’s cash flow and potential for profitability.

We are dependent on key personnel, specifically Richard Surber, and have no employment agreement with him.

We are dependent on the services of Richard Surber, our President. We do not have an employment agreement with Mr. Surber, and losing his services would likely have an adverse effect on our ability to conduct business. Mr. Surber serves as an Officer and Director of Nexia. Mr. Surber is currently employed by other businesses, and he will only allocate a portion of his time (estimated at an average of 50 hours per week) to the business of Nexia. Therefore, there is a risk that he might not devote enough time to Nexia in fulfilling our business plan. Further, Nexia has a limited number of full time employees.

The operation of Landis Lifestyle Salon and Gold Fusion Laboratories operations are each dependent on key personnel.

Our subsidiary Landis LLC owns Landis Lifestyle Salon. The operations of Landis Lifestyle Salon are dependent on the day to day management of Matthew Landis, the namesake of the salon’s name who works in the salon and trains its personnel. Losing his services would likely have an adverse effect on the operations and business development of the salon business owned and operated by Landis LLC.

Our subsidiary Gold Fusion Laboratories has acquired the operations of Black Chandelier which is dependent upon the fashion sense and design creations of Jared Gold for its operations. Losing his services would likely have an adverse effect on the design functions, development of new clothing lines and future business growth of Gold Fusion’s planned acquisitions and the related retail operations.

Our ability to provide adequate management, maintenance and insurance.

To provide for adequate management, maintenance and insurance for the properties owned by Nexia, rental income will need to exceed the operating costs for those properties. Vacancies, falling rents, bankruptcy of tenants, unexpectedly higher maintenance costs or a loss not covered by insurance could adversely affect the ability of Nexia to provide adequate management, maintenance and insurance for its properties. If these services are not provided on an adequate basis, deterioration of the property would have a severely negative impact on Nexia.

Risks related to Nexia’s and its predecessors’ operating histories

The current focus of Nexia’s business plan is to take advantage of the current boom in the United States’ real estate market. In the current market, Nexia has not relied upon the sellers of real property to finance its real estate investments. Nexia has obtained the necessary funding on its own. However, Nexia and its predecessors have attempted in recent years to compete in other market trends which were not successful. For example, Nexia signed an agreement to acquire Creative Marketing Group, Inc. which holds a license to market coffee maker filters and ground coffee beans under the “Mr. Coffee” name. In another example, Nexia attempted to close on a manufacturing and repair company. In each of these situations, the executive management of Nexia and its predecessors was the same. In each of these failed attempts, Nexia attempted to acquire an existing business based on the incorrect information that the selling shareholder group would obtain the necessary financing to support the ongoing business of the franchise. Based upon past performance, there is the possibility that Nexia’s executive management may in the future commit resources to an acquisition that ultimately proves to be unsound and damages the Company financially.

We will need new funding, which may not be available, in order to fully execute our real estate business plan.

Our real estate business planBbuying undervalued buildingsBwill depend on our ability to raise more money. Management and shareholders have not committed to provide new funding. Except for that funding we hope to obtain as a result of selling our common stock to Dutchess, as detailed in this prospectus, we have not investigated other sources, availability, or terms for new funding. There is no assurance that funding will be available from any source or, if available, that it can be obtained on acceptable terms. If we can not obtain new funding, our operations could be severely limited.
 
13


We cannot predict our future capital needs and may not be able to secure additional funding.

Nexia’s management estimates that the Company’s current “burn rate,” the current rate at which expenses exceed revenue, is approximately $75,000 per month, or $900,000 per year. We will need to raise additional funds within the next twelve months in order to fund the current level of operations of the Company. We expect that the majority of these funds will come from the sale of our common shares to Dutchess or the sale or transfer of some of our preferred shares to private investors. Either method of funding could result in a significant dilution of ownership interests by the holders of our common stock.

Environmental liability could affect our real estate investments.

Various federal, state and local environmental laws make a real estate owner liable for the costs of removal or remediation of certain hazardous or toxic substances on a property. These laws often impose environmental liability regardless of whether the owner was responsible or knew of the presence of hazardous substances. The presence of hazardous substances, or the failure to properly remediate them, may adversely affect our ability to sell or rent a property or to borrow using the property as collateral. No assurance can be given that the environmental assessments of our properties revealed all environmental liabilities, or that a material, adverse environmental condition does not exist on our properties.

We may face an uninsured loss.

Owners of real estate are subject to certain types of losses such as civil disturbance or pollution, which are either uninsurable or too expensive to insure. If an uninsured loss or a loss in excess of insured limits occurs, Nexia's investment in our real properties, as well as anticipated future revenues could be lost. Meanwhile, obligations on any mortgage debt for the properties would continue. Accordingly, any uninsured loss could adversely affect our financial condition and results of operation.

The Americans With Disabilities Act and similar legislation may increase our costs.

The Americans with Disabilities Act of 1980 (ADA) requires that commercial facilities and places of public accommodation be accessible to disabled people. A number of additional federal, state and local laws impose other requirements on owners concerning access by disabled people. We may need to make both structural and non-structural changes to our property in order to comply with the ADA and similar laws. Noncompliance could result in government fines or an award of damages to a private litigant. We have not been informed that any of our properties fail to comply with such laws. However, we may incur costs, which we cannot fully ascertain now, to ensure compliance in the future. While we do not expect the prospective costs of compliance to have a material effect on our operations, a potential for substantial costs exists. If changes are required, our financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected.

Changes in consumer tastes and fashion trends can have a negative impact on our financial performance.

Both Landis LLC and Gold Fusion Laboratories, Inc. operations could be negatively impacted by unforeseen and unfavorable changes in consumer tastes and fashion trends away from those targeted by the marketing and sales efforts of Landis and Gold Fusion Laboratories. As these tastes and trends are not predictable and their effect on the operations of either retail operation cannot be estimated in advance great effort is made in the operations of both companies to ensure that their products and services reasonably and adequately anticipate the business operations of each company such changes and that theses changes are in order to insure continued consumer demand for their services and products. However, there is no way to assure success with these efforts.

The Series B Preferred Stock held by Richard Surber creates an anti-takeover or change of control limitation. Richard Surber currently holds voting control of Nexia through his ownership of voting preferred stock which could be affected by the purchases of common stock by Dutchess.

The ten million shares of Series B Preferred Stock held by Richard Surber provide him with voting control over any proposal requiring a vote of the shareholders. Through his ownership of 10,000,000 shares of the Series B Preferred Stock of the Company, he holds voting rights equal to 5,000,000,000 shares of common stock. This effectively gives him a veto over any attempt to take over or change control of the Company. Such an event would include a vote by the board of directors to conduct a reverse split of the common stock. The shares held by Mr. Surber thus have a strong anti-takeover effect. His interests may not always conform to the interests of the common stockholders, in general, and thus his voting rights may not always be exercised in the best interests of the common stockholders of the Company. The issuance of 8 million preferred shares was to compensate Mr. Surber for serving as the personal guarantor of the loans used to acquire all of the real estate holdings currently under the Company’s control, and an additional 2 million shares were recently issued as partial compensation for the transfer of Mr. Surber’s interest in Landis LLC. In the event that Dutchess should acquire the 25 billion shares of common stock being registered under this prospectus and retain those shares it would hold 76.2% of the approximately 32,814,768,850 votes that would be outstanding at that time, that number of votes may provide Dutchess with a controlling interest in the Company. Further, if the share price of the common stock decreases during the period of purchases by Dutchess, the number of shares it could acquire would increase as the price it would have to pay for those shares would decrease.

Risks Related to Landis LLC’s Operation of Landis Lifestyle Salon

The operation of Landis Lifestyle Salon operations are each dependent on key personnel.

The operations of Landis Lifestyle Salon are dependent on the day to day management of Matthew Landis, the namesake of the salon’s name who works in the salon and trains its personnel. Losing his services would likely have an adverse effect on the operations and business development of the salon business owned and operated by Landis LLC.

Our success depends on our ability to attract and retain trained stylists in order to support our existing salon business and to staff future expansion.

Landis is actively recruiting qualified candidates to fill stylist positions for the salon. There is substantial competition for experienced personnel in this area, which we expect to continue. We will compete for experienced candidates with companies who have substantially greater financial resources than we do. If we fail to attract, motivate and retain qualified stylists, it could harm our business and limit our ability to be successful and hamper expansion plans. For example, we will depend upon the expertise and training abilities of Matthew Landis, the principal manager of the salon. Since we do not maintain insurance policies on any of our employees, if we lose the services of any key officers or employees, like Mr. Landis, it could harm our business and results of operations.

We face significant competition in the salon business, which could harm our sales and profitability

The primary competition to Landis operations will come from salons offering above-and-beyond customer service in the Salt Lake Area market. Currently identified as offering this level of competition are salons named, Lunatic Fringe, Salon Zazou and Salon RZ. Landis will also be in competition with large scale hair cutting operations such as Great Clips, Supercuts, and Fantastic Sams, though these operations do not compete in offering the extra services and products that Landis offers.

The loss of distribution rights to the Aveda™ line of products would damage the operation of the Landis Lifestyle Salon and have a significant and negative impact on its ability to operate and generate revenues.

The Landis LLC operates the Landis Lifestyle Salon, has a Retail Product Use Agreement with a distributor of the Aveda™ line of products and which are used exclusively in the services provided to customers of the salon and offered for retail sale at the salon location. Loss of the right to sell Aveda product would have a significant and negative impact on the operation of the salon and its ability to generate revenues from either retail sales of health and beauty products or from providing services to consumers at the salon. Landis believes that the high quality and reputation of this line of products is key to its current operations and future success.

Changes in consumer tastes and hairstyling trends can have a negative impact on our financial performance.

Landis’ salon operations could be negatively impacted by unforeseen and unfavorable changes in consumer tastes and hairstyling trends away from those targeted by the marketing and sales efforts of Landis. As these tastes and trends are not predictable and their effect on the operations of the salon cannot be estimated in advance great effort is made in the operations of the salon to ensure that its products and services reasonably and adequately anticipate such changes and that theses changes are met with modifications in the salon’s operations to insure continued consumer demand for its services and products. However, there is no way to assure success with these efforts.

Risks Related to Gold Fusion Laboratories Operation of Black Chandelier Clothing Line

The success of the Gold Fusion Laboratories business plan depends in large part on our ability to identify fashion trends and to react to changing customer demand in a timely manner.

Consequently, we depend, in part, upon favorable market response to the creative efforts of the Gold Fusion Laboratories operation.

Failure on our part to anticipate, identify, and respond effectively to changing consumer demands and fashion trends will adversely affect our sales. 

If we are unable to obtain raw materials, or find manufacturing facilities, our financial condition may be harmed. Outside of a small sample room, we do not own any manufacturing facilities, and therefore depend on a limited number of third parties to manufacture our products. We place all of our orders for production of merchandise and raw materials by purchase order and do not have any long-term contracts with any manufacturer or supplier. If we fail to obtain sufficient quantities of raw materials, it could have a harmful effect on the results of our operations. Furthermore, we may receive shipments of products from manufacturers that fail to conform to our quality control standards. In such an event, unless we are able to obtain replacement products in a timely manner, we may lose sales. If we fail to maintain favorable relationships with these production facilities, or fail to obtain an adequate supply of quality raw materials on commercially reasonable terms, it could harm our business and results of operations.
 
Gold Fusion will be dependent on third party manufacturers for production, and its sales may be negatively affected if the manufacturers do not perform acceptably, or if design changes are communicated after the production has begun.

We will develop a significant portion of our merchandise in conjunction with third-party apparel manufacturers. In some cases, we select merchandise directly from these manufacturers’ lines. We do not have long-term contracts with any third party manufacturers and will purchase all of the merchandise from such manufacturers by purchase order. Furthermore, we may receive, in the future, shipments of products from third-party apparel manufacturers that fail to conform to our quality control standards. In such an event, unless we are able to obtain replacement products in a timely manner, we may lose sales. We cannot assure you that third party manufacturers (1) will not supply similar products to our competitors, (2) will not stop supplying products to us completely or, 3) will supply products that satisfy our quality control standards. In addition, certain of our third party manufacturers will store our raw materials. In the event our inventory is damaged or destroyed, and we are unable to obtain replacement raw materials, our ability to generate earnings may be negatively impacted. In addition, if we decide to change a key design element, after the manufacturing process has begun, we may negatively impact the manufacturer's ability to deliver the products on a timely basis, which could impact our ability to generate earnings.

Our success depends on our ability to attract and retain key employees in order to support our existing business and future expansion.

We are actively recruiting qualified candidates to fill key executive positions within the Company. There is substantial competition for experienced personnel, which we expect to continue. We will compete for experienced personnel with companies who have substantially greater financial resources than we do. If we fail to attract, motivate and retain qualified personnel, it could harm our business and limit our ability to be successful. For example, we will depend upon the expertise and design talents of Jared Gold, the founder of the Black Chandelier line of products. Since we do not maintain insurance policies on any of our employees, if we lose the services of any key officers or employees, like Mr. Gold, it could harm our business and results of operations.

We face significant competition in the retail and apparel industry, which could harm our sales and profitability.

The retail and apparel industries are highly competitive and are characterized by low barriers to entry. We expect competition in our markets to increase. The primary competitive factors in our markets are: brand name recognition, sourcing strategies, product styling, quality, presentation and pricing, timeliness of product development and delivery, customer service, and convenience. We compete with specialty store retailers, business to consumer websites, off-price retailers and direct marketers for, among other things, raw materials, market share, finished goods, sourcing and personnel. Because many of these competitors are larger and have substantially greater financial, distribution and marketing resources than we do, we may lack the resources to adequately compete with them. If we fail to compete in any way, it could harm our business, financial condition, and future results of operations.

Purchases of the merchandise we sell are generally discretionary and are therefore particularly susceptible to economic slowdowns.

If economic conditions are not favorable or if they should suffer a downward trend, our retail businesses, financial condition, and results of operations could be adversely affected. Consumers are generally more willing to make discretionary purchases, including purchases of fashion products and high-end home products, during periods in which favorable economic conditions prevail.

If we are not able to successfully protect our intellectual property, our ability to capitalize on the value of the Black Chandelier brand name may be impaired.

Even though we intend to take actions to establish, register and protect our trademarks and other proprietary rights, we cannot assure you that these efforts will be successful. There is a risk that others will imitate our products or infringe upon our intellectual property rights. In addition, we cannot assure you that others will not resist or seek to block the sale of our products as infringements of their trademark and proprietary rights. We are seeking to register our trademarks in targeted markets. In some of these markets, obstacles exist that may prevent us from obtaining a trademark for the Black Chandelier or related names. Furthermore, in some jurisdictions, despite successful registration of our trademarks, third parties may allege infringement and bring actions against us. We are not aware of any actual infringement by our products on any other trademarked product.
 
If an independent manufacturer violates labor or other laws, is accused of violating any such laws, or if their labor practices diverge from those generally accepted as ethical, it could harm our business and brand image.

While all our manufacturers are contractually required to comply with ethical labor practices, we cannot control the actions or public perception of such manufacturers, nor can we assure that these manufacturers will conduct their businesses using ethical or legal labor practices. Apparel companies may be held jointly liable for the wrongdoings of those that manufacturer their products. While we do not control independent manufacturer’s employment conditions, or their business practices, people in general act in their own self-interest, and may act in a manner that produces a negative public perception of the Company. Accordingly we could receive negative publicity or perhaps a court determination that we are jointly liable for such improper practices.

Additional capital is necessary to implement the Company's Business Plan for Gold Fusion Laboratories. 
 
The Company does not believes that it has sufficient cash, cash equivalents and operating income to maintain its business at its existing level through the next 12 months. The Gold Fusion Laboratories’ operation will require significant new capital in order to execute its business plan. The Company’s success in raising this capital will depend upon its ability to access equity capital markets. We may not be able to do so, or do so on acceptable terms. If the Company fails to obtain funds on acceptable terms, it will not be able to execute the Gold Fusion Laboratories business plan and would have to delay or abandon some or all of its plans for growth.

Risks Related to Investment

Nexia expects the price of its common stock to be volatile. As a result, investors could suffer greater market losses in a down market than they might experience with a more stable stock. Volatility in our stock may also increase the risk of having to defend a securities class action suit, which could be expensive and divert management’s attention from managing Nexia’s business.

The market price of Nexia’s common shares has been subject to wide fluctuations in response to several factors, such as:

·  
Significant dilution
·  
Actual or anticipated variation in the results of operations
·  
Announcements of acquisitions
·  
Changes in the areas of operations of the company
·  
Conditions and trends in the real estate market in Salt Lake City, Utah and nationally

The stock markets generally, and the OTC Bulletin Board in particular, have experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations that are often unrelated and disproportionate to the operating performance of a particular company. These market fluctuations, as well as general economic, political and market conditions such as recessions or interest rate or international currency fluctuations, may adversely affect the market for the common stock of the company. In the past, class action litigation has often been brought against companies after periods of volatility in the market price of their securities. If such a class action suit is brought against the Company it could result in substantial costs and a diversion of management’s attention and resources, which would hurt business operations.

Dutchess will pay less than the then-prevailing market price of our common stock, which may cause our stock price to decline.

The common stock to be issued under our agreement with Dutchess will be purchased at a 5% discount to the lowest closing bid price for the five days immediately following our notice to Dutchess of our election to exercise our put right. These discounted sales could cause the price of our Common Stock to decline, and you may not be able to sell our stock for more than you paid for it. Dutchess will have an immediate incentive to sell the shares it acquires and realize a gain as a result of the discount from market price at which it will purchase shares of Nexia’s commons tock. This incentive to sell will increase as the market price of Nexia’s common stock falls as Dutchess will wish to avoid a loss on the sale of such shares.

Our stock value is dependent on our ability to generate net cash flows.

A large portion of any potential return on our common stock will be dependent on our ability to generate net cash flows.

If we can not operate our commercial property and/or retail operations at a net profit, there will be no return on shareholders’ equity, and this could result in a loss of share value. No assurance can be given that we will be able to operate at a net profit now or in the future.

Our common stock value may decline after the offering.

Sales of our common stock in the public market following this offering could lower the market price of our common stock. The sales may also make it more difficult for the company or its investors to sell current securities in the future at a time and price that the company or its current investors deem acceptable or even to sell such securities at all. The risk factors discussed in this "Risk Factors" section may significantly affect the market price of our stock. The low price of our stock may result in many brokerage firms declining to deal in our stock. Even if a buyer finds a broker willing to effect a transaction in our common stock, the combination of brokerage commissions, state transfer taxes, if any, and other selling costs may exceed the selling price. Further, many lending institutions will not permit the use of this stock as collateral for loans. Thus, you may be unable to sell or otherwise realize the value of your investment in our stock.

The number of shares that could be issued to Dutchess could lead to a large number of shares being placed on the market which could exert a downward trend on the prices. Dutchess, who will have purchased its shares at a discount to the market price, will have an incentive to sell the shares to realize its profits resulting from the discount purchase price that it will be receiving. If the supply created by these events exceeds the demand for purchase of the shares the market price for the shares of common stock will decline.

The number of shares to be made available through this registration statement could encourage short sales by third parties, which could contribute to a future decline in the price of our stock.

In our circumstances, the provision of a large number of common shares to be sold to Dutchess has the potential to cause a significant downward pressure on the price of common stock, such as ours, that is traded on the OTC Bulletin Board. This would be especially true if the shares being placed into the market exceeds the market’s ability to take up the increased number of shares or if the Company has not performed in such a manner to encourage additional investment in the market place. Such events could place further downward pressure on the price of the common stock. As a result of the number of shares that could be placed with Dutchess, an opportunity exists for short sellers and others to contribute to the future decline of Nexia’s stock price. Persons engaged in short-sales first sell shares that they do not own and, thereafter, purchase shares to cover their previous sales. To the extent the stock price declines between the time the person sells the shares and subsequently purchases the shares, the person engaging in short-sales will profit from the transaction, and the greater the decline in the stock price the greater the profit to the person engaging in such short-sales. If there are significant short-sales of our stock, the price decline that would result from this activity will cause our share price to decline even further, which could cause any existing shareholders of our stock to sell their shares creating additional downward pressure on the price of the shares. It is not possible to predict how much the share price may decline should a short sale occur. In the case of some companies that have been subjected to short-sales the stock price has dropped to near zero. This could happen to Nexia.

The Investment Agreement entered into with Dutchess does not contain a restriction on short selling. Any significant downward pressure on the price of our common stock could encourage short sales by Dutchess, and others, subject to applicable securities laws. Even if we use the proceeds under the Investment Agreement to grow our revenues and profits or invest in assets, which are materially beneficial to us, the opportunity exists for short sellers and others to contribute to the future decline of our stock price. If there are significant short sales of our stock, the price decline that would result from this activity will cause the share price to decline even more, which, in turn, may cause long holders of the stock to sell their shares thereby contributing to sales of stock in the market. If there is an imbalance on the sell side of the market for the stock, our stock price will decline. In that event, the number of shares of our common stock that are issuable pursuant to the Investment Agreement will increase, which will materially dilute existing stockholders equity and voting rights.

Our shareholders may face significant restrictions on the resale of our stock due to state "Blue Sky" laws.

Each state has its own securities laws, often called "blue sky laws," which (1) limit sales of stock to a states’ residents unless the stock is registered in that state or qualifies for an exemption from registration and (2) govern the reporting requirements for broker-dealers and stock brokers doing business directly or indirectly in the state. Before a security is sold in a state, there must be a registration in place to cover the transaction, or it must be exempt from registration. Also, the broker must be registered in that state. We do not know whether our stock will be registered, or exempt, under the laws of any states. A determination regarding registration will be made by the broker-dealers, if any, who agree to serve as the market-makers for our stock. There may be significant state blue sky law restrictions on the ability of investors to sell, and on purchasers to buy, our stock.

You should consider the resale market for our securities to be limited. Shareholders may be unable to resell their stock, or they may be unable to resell it without the significant expense of state registration or qualification.
 
19


Our stock may be subject to significant restrictions on resale due to federal penny stock regulations.

Our stock differs from many stocks because it is a Apenny stock. The Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) has adopted a number of rules to regulate penny stocks. These rules require that a broker or dealer, prior to entering into a transaction with a customer, must furnish certain information related to the penny stock. The information that must be disclosed includes quotes on the bid and offer, any form of compensation to be received by the broker in connection with the transaction and information related to any cash compensation paid to any person associated with the broker or dealer.

These rules may affect your ability to sell our shares in any market that may develop for Nexia stock. Should a market for our stock develop among dealers, it may be inactive. Investors in penny stocks are often unable to sell stock back to the dealer that sold it to them. The mark-ups or commissions charged by broker-dealers may be greater than any profit a seller can make. Because of large dealer spreads, investors may be unable to sell the stock immediately back to the dealer at the same price the dealer sold it to them. In some cases, the stock value may fall quickly. Investors may be unable to gain any profit from any sale of the stock, if they can sell it at all.

Potential investors should be aware that, according to the SEC Release No. 34-29093, the market for penny stocks has suffered in recent years from patterns of fraud and abuse. These patterns include:

·  
control of the market for the security by one or a few broker-dealers that are often related to the promoter or issuer;

·  
manipulation of prices through prearranged matching of purchases and sales and false and misleading press releases;

·  
Aboiler room practices involving high pressure sales tactics and unrealistic price projections by inexperienced sales persons;
 
·  
excessive and undisclosed bid-ask differentials and markups by selling broker-dealers; and

·  
the wholesale dumping of the same securities by promoters and broker-dealers after prices have been manipulated to a desired level, along with the inevitable collapse of those prices with consequent investor losses.

Investors must contact a broker-dealer to trade over-the-counter bulletin board securities. As a result, you may not be able to buy or sell our securities at the times you may wish.

Even though our securities are quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board, they may not permit our investors to sell securities when and in the manner that they wish. Because there are no automated systems for negotiating trades on the OTC Bulletin Board, they are conducted via telephone. In times of heavy market volume, the limitations of this process may result in a significant increase in the time it takes to execute investor orders. When investors place market orders to buy or sell a specific number of shares at the current market price it is possible for the price of a stock to go up or down significantly during the lapse of time between placing a market order and its execution.

If we fail to remain current on the reporting requirements that apply to Nexia, we could be removed from the OTC Bulletin Board which would limit the ability of broker-dealers to sell our securities and the ability of stockholders to sell their securities.

Companies trading on the OTC Bulletin Board, such as Nexia, must be reporting issuers under Section 12 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and must be current in their reports under Section 13, in order to maintain price quotation privileges on the OTC Bulletin Board. If we fail to remain current on our reporting requirements, shares of our common stock could be removed from the OTC Bulletin Board. As a result of that removal, the market liquidity for our securities could be severely adversely affected by limiting the ability of broker-dealers to sell our securities and the ability of stockholders to sell their securities in the secondary market.

Investors may experience an immediate and significant dilution of their interest if any securities registered hereunder are sold.

"Dilution" represents the difference between the offering price and the net tangible book value per share immediately after completing this offering. "Net tangible book value" is the amount that results from subtracting total liabilities and intangible assets from total assets. Dilution is caused primarily by our arbitrary determination of the offering price for the shares detailed in this prospectus. Dilution also occurs because of the lower book value of the shares held by our existing shareholders.

As of October 9, 2006, the net tangible book value of our shares of common stock was $1,309,213, or approximately $0.0002 per share, based on 7,814,768,850 shares outstanding.

Upon completion of this offering, if 100% of the offered shares are sold, the net tangible book value of the 32,814,768,850 shares to be outstanding will be $6,309,213 or approximately. You would not experience any immediate dilution or change in the net tangible book value of a share of common stock.

Dutchess may not buy all or any of our common stock.

The possibility exists that we will not sell any of the securities to Dutchess detailed in this offering; or that we will sell only a limited number of securities. Dutchess has no obligation to buy common stock until a request is made by Nexia and management has reached a decision to make such a request as being in the company’s best interests. Nexia has incurred expenses related to this offering. The offering expenses are to be paid from the proceeds of the offering or the sales to Dutchess. Should Nexia fail to sell, or should Dutchess fail to buy any securities or only a limited number of securities as offered, then offering costs would be paid from our operating budget. The addition of this financial obligation to the operating budget of Nexia would have a negative impact on our ability to continue our operations.

SELLING SHAREHOLDERS

The following table presents information regarding the selling shareholders. None of the selling shareholders holds, or has held a position or office or had any other material relationship with Nexia. Dutchess is not a broker-dealer or an affiliate of a broker-dealer.

DETERMINATION OF OFFERING PRICE

The shares of Nexia common stock are being offered for sale by the selling stockholder at prices established on the OTC Bulletin Board or in negotiated transactions during the term of this offering. These prices will fluctuate based on the demand for the shares.

DILUTION

“Dilution” represents the difference between the offering price and the net tangible book value per share immediately after completing this offering. “Net tangible book value” is the amount that results from subtracting total liabilities and intangible assets from total assets. Dilution arises mainly because we have arbitrarily determined the offering price for the shares offered in this prospectus. Dilution may occur in the event of reductions in the book value of shares held by our existing stockholders.

These calculations are assumptions based upon an estimate of prices and sales that may never be realized. Actual prices to be paid by Dutchess to the Company will not be determined until the time of sale. All of the following information is premised upon those assumptions and estimated prices. Actual results may vary materially from those presented in the following information as a result of the sale and transfer of the shares registered hereunder.

As of October 9, 2006, the net tangible book value of our shares of common stock was $1,309,213, or approximately $0.0002 per share, based on 7,814,768,850 shares outstanding.

Upon completion of this offering, if 100% of the offered shares are sold (25,000,000,000), the net tangible book value of the 32,814,768,850 shares to be outstanding will be $6,309,213 or approximately $0.0002 per share. The net tangible book value of the shares held by our existing stockholders will not change. You would not experience any immediate dilution or change in the net tangible book value of a share of common stock.

Upon completion of this offering, if 75% of the offered shares are sold (18,750,000,000), the net tangible book value of the 26,564,768,850 shares to be outstanding will be $5,059,213 or approximately $0.0002 per share. The net tangible book value of the shares held by our existing stockholders will not change. You would not experience any immediate dilution or change in the net tangible book value of a share of common stock.

Upon completion of this offering, if 50% of the offered shares are sold (12,500,000,000), the net tangible book value of the 20,314,768,850 shares to be outstanding will be $3,809,213 or approximately $0.0002 per share. The net tangible book value of the shares held by our existing stockholders will not change. You would not experience any immediate dilution or change in the net tangible book value of a share of common stock.

Upon completion of this offering, if 25% of the offered shares are sold (6,250,000,000), the net tangible book value of the 14,064,768,850 shares to be outstanding will be $2,559,213 or approximately $0.0002 per share. The net tangible book value of the shares held by our existing stockholders will not change. You would not experience any immediate dilution or change in the net tangible book value of a share of common stock

Upon completion of this offering, if 5% of the offered shares are sold (1,250,000,000), the net tangible book value of the 9,064,768,850 shares to be outstanding will be $1,559,213 or approximately $0.0002 per share. The net tangible book value of the shares held by our existing stockholders will not change from. You would not experience any immediate dilution or change in the net tangible book value of a share of common stock.

The following table compares the number shares outstanding before and after the offering and the number of shares held by our existing stockholders.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

The Selling Shareholder has told us they intend to sell the common stock covered by this prospectus from time to time in the OTC Bulletin Board market or in any other market where our shares of common stock are quoted. The Selling Shareholder, or brokers, dealers or agents that participate in the distribution of the common stock, may be deemed to be underwriters, and any discounts on the sale of common stock by them and any discounts, concessions, or commissions they receive may be deemed to be underwriter discounts and commissions under the Securities Act.

Under the securities laws of some states, the shares of common stock may be sold in such states only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers. We will inform the Selling Shareholder that any underwriters, brokers, dealers or agents effecting transactions on behalf of the selling shareholder must be registered to sell securities in all 50 states. In addition, in some states the shares of common stock may not be sold unless the shares have been registered or qualified for sale in such state or an exemption from registration or qualification is available and there is compliance with those exemptions.

Nexia will pay all the expenses of the registration, offering, and sale of the shares of common stock to the public under this prospectus other than commissions, fees, and discounts of underwriters, brokers, dealers or agents. We have agreed to indemnify the Selling Shareholder and their controlling persons against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act. We estimate the expenses of the offering, to be borne by Nexia, will be approximately $100,000. We will not receive any proceeds from the sale of the shares of common stock by the Selling Shareholder. We will, however, receive proceeds from the sale of common stock to Dutchess pursuant to the Investment Agreement.

The Selling Shareholder should be aware that the anti-manipulation provisions of Regulation M under the Exchange Act will affect purchases and sales of common stock by the selling shareholder and that there are restrictions on market-making activities by persons engaged in the distribution of the shares. Under Regulation M, the Selling Shareholder or its agents may not bid for or purchase, or attempt to induce any person to bid for or purchase, shares of our common stock while they are distributing shares covered by this prospectus. Accordingly, except as noted below, the selling shareholder is not permitted to cover short sales or purchasing shares while the distribution is taking place. We will advise the Selling Shareholder that if a particular offer of common stock is to be made on terms materially different from the information set forth in the above Plan of Distribution, that a post-effective amendment to the accompanying registration statement must be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

The following civil actions may have a material impact on Nexia:

Richard D. Surber, Individually and Hudson Consulting Group, Inc., a Nevada Corporation vs. Richard A. Bailey and Florian R. Ternes, Individually, Gateway Distributors, Inc., a Nevada Corporation and Worldwide Holdings Delaware Corp., a Delaware corporation, f/k/a TRSG Corporation. Suit was filed on October 8, 2004 in the Third Judicial District Court of Salt Lake County, State of Utah, Civil Case No. 040921072. The complaint was filed on behalf of Mr. Surber and Hudson Consulting Group, Inc. seeking recovery for unpaid obligations owed to Hudson by the named defendants, some of which are represented by a promissory note in the face amount of $175,000 and for damages alleged to have been caused by the fraudulent actions of the named defendants which have caused injury to both Hudson and to Mr. Surber personally. Defendants have been served and all but one has filed an appearance with the court in which they have denied liability. Worldwide Holdings Delaware Corp. has failed to make an appearance and a default has been requested from the court against that corporation.

Nexia Holdings, Inc., a Nevada Corporation vs. Richard Bailey, Individually and Creative Marketing Group, Inc., a Nevada Corporation. This action was filed on September 28, 2004, in the Third Judicial District Court of Salt Lake County, State of Utah, Civil Case No. 040920424. Nexia filed this cause of action to recover its damages that resulted from the failure of the named defendants to perform the terms and conditions of a Stock Purchase Agreement and Plan of Reorganization signed on or about November 10, 2003. This agreement provided for Nexia to acquire a controlling interest in the defendant corporation which the Defendants have subsequently failed and refused to perform, despite Nexia having tendered full performance on its part. Both defendants were served with process in the case and failed to make an appearance before the Court; entry of default against each defendant has been signed by the court. Development of information to establish the amount of damages suffered by Nexia is currently being gathered and after presentation to the court, a final judgment is expected for Nexia in an amount yet to be determined.

Hallmark Construction & Development, L.L.C. v. Wasatch Capital Corporation, Community First National Bank, CUBCO, Inc. and John Does 1-10. Action was filed on or about August 18, 2005, in the Third Judicial District Court of Salt Lake County, State of Utah, Civil Case No. 050914860. Hallmark Construction & Development LLC has filed suit against Wasatch Capital Corporation seeking collection of $92,000 in alleged unpaid construction costs for the improvements and work provided on the Wallace/Bennett buildings owned by Wasatch Capital. Wasatch has responded with a demand that, as provided in the underlying contract, the matters in dispute between the parties be submitted to arbitration. Wasatch denies that it is currently indebted to Hallmark for any services or work provided for the improvement of the said buildings and believes that it has actions for damages against Hallmark. On June 20, 2006 a full release of this lien was filed by Hallmark Construction and Development L.L.C. releasing the subject real estate from all claims asserted by Hallmark. The matter was subsequently heard by the assigned arbitrator who entered a finding in favor of Wasatch Capital, granting a judgment to Wasatch against Hallmark in the sum of $99,791.12, which includes overpayment, damages for defective work, attorney fees, costs, arbitration fees and provides for interest both pre and post-judgment. A Motion to Confirm Arbitration Award was filed with the Court and a final order and judgment has been signed by the Court.

The end result of the agreements was to resolve and settle all claims against Axia Group, Inc. held by the named entities, all subsidiaries of Nexia Holdings, Inc. Richard Surber, President of the Company, was formerly an officer and director of Axia Group, Inc. The purpose of the above described transaction was to settle the various claims and resolve the debts and obligations that existed between Axia and the Company and its subsidiaries.

On September 28, 2004 the Company authorized the issuance of 8,000,000 shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock to the president of the Company, Richard Surber. The shares were issued as compensation for both his service as president of the Company and for acting as a guarantor on real estate mortgages for subsidiaries of the Company. The shares were issued in a private transfer exempt from registration under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933. This issuance was reported on a Form 8-K filing made on September 28, 2004. The shares were valued at $8,000.

On November 2, 2005, the Company’s subsidiary, Diversified Holdings I, Inc. invested $100,000 in Landis, LLC in exchange for a 20% interest in the LLC. Landis has opened an upscale hair salon located at the corner of 900 East and 1300 South in Salt Lake City, Utah. Richard Surber, president and director of the company held a 60% ownership interest in Landis LLC at that time.

On July 13, 2006, the Company approved, and its subsidiary Diversified Holdings I, Inc. (“DHI”) executed an agreement with Richard Surber to acquire Mr. Surber’s 60% ownership interest in Landis LLC, a Utah limited liability company. Richard Surber is the president of the Company and was the proposing party for the transaction. The independent directors of the Company both approved of the deal and an independent valuation of Landis LLC has been received by the Company that supports the value paid to Mr. Surber for his interest. In exchange for his 60% ownership interest in Landis LLC Mr. Surber will receive the following compensation, (1) a promissory note in the amount of $250,000, bearing interest at the rate of 24% per annum, payments are due in five annual payments of principal and interest, (2) 75,000 shares of Nexia’s Class A Preferred stock and (3) 2,000,000 shares of Nexia’s Class B Preferred stock.

Landis LLC is the operator of the Landis Lifestyle Salon located at the corner of 13th East and 900 South in Salt Lake City, Utah. This salon features the Aveda™ line of products. Due to the Company’s prior existing ownership interest in Landis, LLC and Mr. Surber’s position as the managing member of the LLC, the Company previously reported financial results included the operations of Landis on a consolidated basis, and those results will continue to be consolidated in the Company’s financial reports as a result of this acquisition. The assets and inventory interests acquired by DHI have been consolidated into Nexia’s balance sheet as of the date of closing and valued in accordance with the independent valuation that was performed.

On August 15, 2006, Gold Fusion Laboratories, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, signed an Asset Purchase Agreement with Richard Surber to acquire ownership of the assets, inventory and receivables of the fashion operations of Diversified Holdings X, Inc., a corporation owned by Mr. Surber that owned and operated the Black Chandelier and related clothing operations. The consideration for this transaction was a promissory note in the amount of $300,000, bearing interest at the rate of 24% per annum, payments are due in five annual installment and 70,000 shares of Nexia’s Class A Preferred stock. On September 18, 2006 an addendum to this agreement was approved by the parties that provided for the issuance of 2,000,000,000 shares of the Company’s restricted common stock be issued to Diversified Holdings X, Inc. as compensation for the transfers made to Gold Fusion Laboratories.

DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

This prospectus contains forward-looking statements which involve risks and uncertainties, including trends in the real estate investment market, projected leasing and sales and future prospects. Actual results could differ materially from those discussed in the forward-looking statements. Factors that might cause such a difference include, but are not limited to, those discussed in "Risk Factors."

General

Nexia’s general area of business at the current time is the acquisition, management and selling of commercial real estate properties in the greater Salt Lake City, Utah area. A subsidiary of the Company has also acquired an 85% ownership interest in Landis LLC which owns and operates Landis Lifestyle Salon, an Aveda™ lifestyle salon located in Salt Lake City, Utah. Another subsidiary, Gold Fusion Laboratories, Inc., has acquired 2 retail clothing stores operating under the name Black Chandelier in Salt Lake City, Utah.
 
Discontinued Operations

The Company, through its subsidiary, Hudson Consulting Group, Inc., formerly provided a variety of financial consulting services to a wide range of clients. The Company in 2004 elected to discontinue those services by Hudson and concentrate its efforts on the execution of the core of its business plan.

Overview of the Salt Lake City Real Estate Market

Trends in the current Salt Lake City real estate market are favorable in some respects to the Company’s real estate holdings. In general, these trends are as follows: the significant growth of retail sales in the city; increased interest in Salt Lake from specialty retailers; relatively low vacancy rates for retail space in the area; estimated slowdowns in the rate of new retail space construction; and Utah economic indicators pointing to above-average retail sales.

For purposes of the following discussion Class A office space is defined as a building that has excellent location and access, attracts high quality tenants and are managed professionally. Rents are competitive with other new buildings. Class B buildings have good locations, management, and construction and tenant standards are high. Buildings have very little functional obsolescence and deterioration. Class C buildings are typically 15 to 25 years old but are maintaining steady occupancy and demand lower rent than Class B buildings.

Significant Growth. According to the Year-End 2005 Market Review of Commerce CRG published by national real estate broker Cushman & Wakefield, the Salt Lake City office market Amore than 1.45 million square feet of office space were absorbed in the Salt Lake valley in 2005. This change represents greater absorption numbers than in the last three years combined.” The overall vacancy rate was 10.81% in 2005, a 4.19% drop from 2004 figures. The likely closing of a major office center in the central business district is expected to reduce available space and could provide additional impetus for the construction of new projects. Salt Lake City has, during the recent past, attracted new attention from national tenants seeking space in the area.

These reported trends have not, however, lead to increased occupancy in Class C office buildings or retail space which would cover the holdings of Nexia at the present time, excluding a portion of the Wallace building that we own which is Class A office space. Vacancies in such buildings have remained much higher as the higher class buildings have completed tenant improvements to their space to attract new tenants, Class C vacancy rates were reported at 25.62% for the year of 2005 compared to an overall vacancy rate of 11.24% for the central business district. However, for retail space, lease rates for Class A space have reached record highs and may encourage local retailers to move into Class B and C spaces with their lower lease rates.

All of the retail space in the Wallace/Bennett buildings owned by our subsidiary Wasatch Capital is currently leased. A 2,500 square foot portion of a total of 7,000 square feet of the retail space in the buildings located at 1374 South State Street is leased and the balance is unoccupied at this time. The balance of the Company’s holdings in the Salt Lake City market are of office or studio space. Plans have been made to improve the vacant spaces and ready them for more aggressive marketing.

Our Plan to Acquire and to Sell Commercial Properties

Our business plan is to buy more properties that we believe are undervalued compared to their cash flows and estimated resale value. We are looking for properties with sufficient rental income to enable us to cover the operating costs of our overall portfolio. We will sell properties when market conditions are favorable.

Our strategy is to identify properties with a favorable financing arrangement already in place, assume that financing, and satisfy any new down-payment with a relatively nominal cash payment. We plan to lease primarily to commercial tenants. We are prepared to make limited improvements to our properties so that we can increase occupancy, improve cash flows, and enhance potential resale value. We do not plan to limit the geographical area in which we buy properties; however, given our current financial condition, we will most likely seek properties in the Salt Lake City area.

From time to time, we will sell our commercial properties when favorable market conditions enable us to do so. While we are actively seeking tenants for all our properties, our real estate agents are also seeking buyers for those properties. Our goal ultimately is to maximize profits and not necessarily to be landlords.

Landis Salon

Nexia currently owns 85% of Landis LLC (“Landis”). In November 2005, the Company acquired a 20% equity interest in Landis for a $100,000 cash payment. Landis operates an AvedaTM lifestyle salon that features AvedaTM products for retail sale. Landis is controlled by Nexia’s Chief Executive Officer. Nexia has consolidated Landis for accounting purposes as of June 30, 2006, because of its ownership interest and common control with our president. Nexia, subsequent to the end of the second quarter, signed an agreement to acquire Mr. Surber’s 60% ownership interest in Landis. As consideration for that acquisition Nexia and Diversified Holdings I, Inc. delivered to Mr. Surber (1) a promissory note in the amount of $250,000, bearing interest at the rate of 24% per annum, due in five annual payments, (2) issuance of 75,000 shares of Nexia’s Class A Preferred Stock and (3) issuance of 2,000,000 shares of Nexia’s Class B Preferred Stock. A 5% interest was acquired from Seth Bullough in exchange for the issuance by Nexia of 5,000 shares of Class A Preferred Stock. Landis Salon has a single location in Salt Lake City, Utah and reported revenue of $587,987 during the six months ended June 30, 2006. Additional information on the Landis Salon can be found on its website at www.landissalon.com.

Landis intends to limit the services offered in its salons to hair and makeup only. The current salon consists of three major components, an Aveda ™ retail store, an advanced hair salon and a training academy (for the training of future staff about the culture, services and products provided by Landis). Pricing of hair services will reflect the experience level of the stylists with the training academy ranging from $16 to $25 and the advanced hair salon from $30 to $75. The design of the studio is intended to look clean, comfortable and modern, appealing to both genders and all age groups.

The target market for Landis is 70% female and 30% male, seeking customers with high expectations at a reasonable cost. The average customer is expected to visit the salon 7-9 times a year, spending an average of $47 on services and purchasing $15 of retail Aveda™ product with each visit. The current location was selected for its central location to the Salt Lake market area, the high income demographics available within easy driving distance and the trendy, upwardly mobile nature of the area. The primary marketing efforts of Landis will be word of mouth, supplemented by carefully selected advertising campaigns and seeking referrals from the existing customer base.
 
The operations of Landis are subject to normal government regulation at the federal, state and local level. Landis must comply with governmental regulation regarding employment, wages, access for handicapped and disabled persons and other laws, rules, regulations and ordinances. Although there are no anticipated changes in existing local, state or federal regulations, if changes should occur, Landis Salon operations would adapt to such new regulations without any significant effect on revenues or operations. However, no assurances can be made that compliance or failure to comply with future regulations will not have a materially adverse effect on the business, operating results or financial situation of Landis.

Primary competition will come from salons offering above-and-beyond customer service in the Salt Lake Area market. Currently identified as offering this level of competition are salons named, Lunatic Fringe, Salon Zazou and Salon RZ. Landis will also be in competition with large scale hair cutting operations such as Great Clips, Supercuts, and Fantastic Sams, though these operations do not compete in offering the extra services and products that Landis offers. No other salons in the Salt Lake area provide the Aveda™ experience with the Aveda™ product line offered by Landis.

Gold Fusion Laboratories

In August of 2006 Gold Fusion Laboratories, Inc., a 100% owned subsidiary of the Company signed an asset purchase agreement with Diversified Holdings X, Inc. to acquire the rights, assets, inventories and receivables of the Black Chandelier clothing lines. Diversified Holdings X, Inc. is controlled by Richard Surber and could be deemed an affiliate of Nexia. Included in this operation are the two retail outlets operated under the Black Chandelier label, in Trolley Square and Gateway shopping centers located in Salt Lake City, as well as the on line shopping site, www.blackchandelier.biz .

Black Chandelier designs, produces and manufactures a majority of all items sold in its stores that are sold under the trademarks, Black Chandelier, Jared Gold, Olfactory Surrealism and Pink Chandelier. The stores also carry merchandise from Wrangler Jeans, Le Sportsac, Taschen books, Lomography Cameras, and Tokidoki Italy.

The first Black Chandelier retail location has been in operation for over two years at the Trolley Square location. Jared Gold has designed a pilot store to be used as a model for the opening of additional stores, this newly designed Black Chandelier is located in the Gateway Shopping Center in downtown Salt Lake City. A virtual tour of this store can be viewed at http://www.blackchandelier.com/Gateway.html.

From January 1 through its acquisition by Gold Fusion the Black Chandelier operations have generated approximately $240,000 in gross revenues. The Company has announced plans to explore the potential for opening additional stores in the US and abroad over the next 3-5 years.

Black Chandelier is a lifestyle company that produces clothing, candles and active wear. The mission of Black Chandelier is to offer products designed with deliberateness and wild inspiration that indulge an individual’s innate drive to be unique. The overarching concept is to provide the consumer with an affordable alternative to ‘mass-market” offerings by extending a product that conveys a sense of eccentricity that stands apart in quality, style and price, from most of the homogenous fare being offered consumers by the mainstream apparel market. The clothing items are produced in small runs keeping merchandise offered in the stores fresh.

Black Chandelier stands in a unique position to establish a niche market among its customers. The clothing, accessories and other products are designed with an edgy sophistication that allows customers to fulfill their need to express their uniqueness. The consumer base of Black Chandelier has a very large age range. Female shoppers vary in age from 15 to 65. The income ranges vastly among this large age spread, however the average is $37,000. This typical consumer is fashion conscious and follows current trends and subscribes to or reads several fashion oriented women’s magazines. The expanding men’s division has garnered a large fanbase in the age group from 15 to 35. These consumers read weekly entertainment guides and local underground publications and fanzines.

The operations of Black Chandelier are subject to normal government regulation at the federal, state and local level. Black Chandelier must comply with governmental regulation regarding employment, wages, access for handicapped and disabled persons and other laws, rules, regulations and ordinances. Although there are no anticipated changes in existing local, state or federal regulations, if changes should occur, Black Chandelier operations would adapt to such new regulations without any significant effect on revenues or operations. However, no assurances can be made that compliance or failure to comply with future regulations will not have a materially adverse effect on the business, operating results or financial situation of Black Chandelier.

The Company believes that local competition for the Black Chandelier retail is Lollabella and JMR. This assumption is based on their marketing and customer demographics. Nationally Black Chandelier will face Diesel, Urban Outfitters and Anthropologie. These specialty retailers manufacture their own goods as well as sell third party product, are nationally marketed, and maintain company operated boutiques in most major cities. Black Chandelier’s edge over its competition is its sales of exclusive product in a market that is presently saturated with larger brands. Ancillary items are purchased from other vendors in small amounts and with studied curation, in order to keep merchandise on the cutting edge. Although the apparel industry is mature and slow growing, it exists in a dynamic and competitive environment. The apparel industry is extremely competitive and highly fragmented. The power of the big retailers is a major challenge to any new designer and manufacturer; however, specialized product with limited distribution can create a unique identity among retailers.

Employees 

Nexia currently employees 6 people on a full time basis and from time to time hires outside contractors to perform various services as required by the operations of the Company. Landis employs approximately 30 employees and Gold Fusion Laboratories employs approximately 22 employees.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION

The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the Financial Statements and accompanying notes and the other financial information appearing elsewhere in this prospectus. Our fiscal year end is December 31.

General

Our business plan for the next twelve months involves the continued operation of our office buildings in Salt Lake City, Utah coupled with our ongoing attempts to locate and acquire additional commercial space in the greater Salt Lake area and elsewhere and to locate suitable buyers for the properties as the circumstances may permit. We recently acquired 85% of Landis and have plans to open two more locations over the next 12 months. We also operate two Black Chandelier stores and have plans to open two more in Utah by December 1, 2006. We anticipate opening an additional six locations over the next 18 to 24 months.

Results of Operations

Revenues

Year ended December 31, 2005. Gross revenues for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004 were $415,744 and $512,456, respectively. This represents a 19% decrease from 2004 to 2005. The decrease in revenues is due in part to a decrease in rental revenues as a result of the divestiture of the Glendale shopping center in the second quarter of 2005 and a decrease in consulting revenues from the discontinuance of Hudson Consulting Group, Inc.

Gross rental revenues for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004 were $281,350 and $512,456, respectively. This was a decrease of nearly 50% from 2004 to 2005. We do not expect rental revenues to substantially increase until such time as Nexia is able to successfully raise a substantial amount of capital which will provide the means to purchase additional properties to replace those which have been sold over the last few years.
 
The revenues attributable to sales from Landis totaled $123,869 for the two months ended December 2005. There are no comparable revenue figures for 2004 because Landis commenced operations in November 2005. We expect revenue from Landis to exceed $1,200,000 for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2006.

Six months ended June 30, 2006. Gross revenues for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2006, were $365,107 and $676,552 as compared to $11,186 and $207,822 for the same periods in 2005. The increase in the three and six month revenues of $253,921 and $468,730, or 228% and 226% respectively, are due to inclusion of sales revenue from the operation of the Landis Salon in the sums of $322,746 and $587,987, respectively. Landis began operations in November 2005.

Expenses

Year ended December 31, 2005. Total expenses for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004 were $729,017 and $1,662,538, respectively. This is a $933,521 decrease, or a 56% decrease from 2004 to 2005. The decrease was attributable to the cessation of providing consulting services in 2004, the sale of a large shopping center in April 2005, further reduction in the number of employees as a result of that sale, and the absence of any impairment of marketable securities in 2005.

Depreciation and amortization expenses for the year ended December 31, 2005, were $141,299 compared to $136,025 for same period in 2004. The increase in the year end expense of $ 5,274, or 3.9%, was primarily the result of a full year of depreciation for the capital improvements made to the Wallace/Bennett buildings in 2004.

Nexia expects expenses as a percent of revenues to increase through 2006 as Nexia steps up its effort to expand its retail operations as well as acquire additional properties.
 
37


Six months ended June 30, 2006. General and administrative expenses for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2006, were $866,536 and $1,207,760 compared to $190,242 and $569,440 for the same periods in 2005. The increase in three and six month expenses of $676,294 and $638,320, or 355% and 112% respectively, was due primarily to Landis’ expenses of $253,738 and $478,896, which did not exist in 2005. There were also increased expenses for investor relations during the three months ended June 30, 2006 totaling $97,982 compared to zero in the same three month period of 2005.
 
Depreciation and amortization expenses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2006, were $37,790 and $81,556 compared to $39,312 and $67,742 for same periods in 2005. The decrease in the three month expense of $1,522, or 4%, was the net result of no depreciation for the Glendale Plaza in 2006 and $10,029 of Landis depreciation in 2006 compared to none in 2005 (Landis’ operations began in November 2005). The increase in the six month expense of $13,814, or 20%, was primarily the net result of no Glendale Plaza depreciation in 2006 and $20,118 of Landis depreciation in 2006 compared to none in 2005.

Income / Losses

Year ended December 31, 2005. Nexia recorded an operating loss of $799,527 at December 31, 2005, as compared to an operating loss of $2,205,221 for the comparable period in 2004. Nexia recorded a net loss of $130,548 for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2005, compared to a net loss of $2,920,584 for the comparable period in 2004. Nexia's losses decreased as a result of the Company’s ability to successfully decrease total expenses by $1,395,169 in 2005. The decrease was attributable to the cessation of providing consulting services in 2004, the sale of a large shopping center in April 2005, further reduction in the number of employees as a result of that sale, and the absence of any impairment of marketable securities in 2005. In addition, Nexia recognized a gain of $756,471 from the sale of real estate and $206,500 from the settlement of litigation during 2005.

Operating Losses
 
Nexia recorded operating losses of $675,835 and $965,301 for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2006, compared to losses of $184,575 and $630,812 for the comparable periods in the year 2005. The increase in three month operating losses of $491,260 and in the six month operating losses of $334,489, or a 266% increase and a 53% increase respectively, was the result of the increased operating expenses related to the operation of the Landis Salon, and a large expense related to the use of shares of Diversified Financial Resources Corporation for the payment of various consulting expenses during the quarter in the amount of $359,286, a non cash payment.
 
Net Income

Nexia recorded net income of $1,328,928 and $1,095,980 for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2006, as compared to net income of $672,695 and $239,139 for the comparable periods in 2005. The increase in the three month net income of $656,233, or 98%, compared to the same period in 2005, reported above, is attributable primarily to the revenue recognized from the Landis Salon operations and the recognition of income from the settlement of the claim against Diversified Financial Resources Corporation in June of 2006. 

Nexia may not operate at a profit through fiscal 2006. Since Nexia's activities in the past were tied to its ability to operate its real estate properties at a profit, future profitability or its revenue growth tended to follow changes in the real estate market place. The recent diversification into retail operations represented by its investment in Landis LLC will broaden Nexia’s operations and make it less dependent on the real estate market and its fluctuations. There can be no guarantee that profitability or revenue growth will be realized in the future.
 
38


Impact of Inflation

The Company believes that inflation may have a negligible effect on future operations. The Company believes that it may be able to offset inflationary increases in the cost of revenue by increasing revenue and improving operating efficiencies.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

On June 30, 2006, Nexia had current assets of $2,825,764 and $5,622,842 in total assets compared to current assets of $532,278 and total assets of $4,319,916 as of December 31, 2005. Nexia had net working capital of $1,362,009 at June 30, 2006, as compared to a net working capital deficit of $971,534 at December 31, 2005. The increase in working capital of $2,333,543 is due primarily to the increased fair market value of marketable securities represented by the settlement with Diversified Financial Resources Corporation. A portion of those shares, valued at $2,041,000, have been transferred to prepay for consulting services to the Company. These expenses will be amortized over the 6 to 9 month term of those contracts. A major portion of the current obligation is a result of the loan on the Wallace-Bennett building being due within 90 days (August 14, 2006). A refinancing of this loan was signed on August 28, 2006, subsequent to the end of the second quarter. It provided a $1 million loan, with an interest rate of 7.125%, a ten-year term and monthly payments based upon a 30 year amortization. The debt will be reclassified as long term and has significantly improved the Company’s working capital.

On June 1, 2006, Diversified Holdings I, Inc., (“DHI”) a subsidiary of the Company, signed a Settlement Agreement and Release with Diversified Financial Resources Corporation (“CHFR”) whereby DHI released all claims remaining under a June 30, 2003 Stock Purchase Agreement between the two parties in exchange for the delivery of 2,000,000 shares of CHFR common stock without a restrictive legend. DHI has agreed to deliver 1.6 million of those shares to three different recipients in exchange for various services to be provided to DHI resulting in pre-paid expenses reported on the balance sheet of the Company. DHI has retained 400,000 shares which have a current market value of approximately $400,000. (The shares of CHFR are thinly traded with a reported bid price of $0.53, an asking price of $1.35 and $1.00 as the last reported trade price as of August 1, 2006.) The future values of these shares are unknown and are subject to market fluctuations. The obligation of CHFR to DHI had earlier been written off as unlikely to be collected, and the receivable was not included in the financial statements as of December 31, 2005 and for the first quarter ended March 31, 2006. (All share numbers reflect a 1 for 12.5 reverse stock split by CHFR effective July 12, 2006.)

Cash used by operating activities was $419,814 for the six months ended June 30, 2006, compared to cash provided by operating activities of $387,866 for the comparable six month period in 2005. The increase in cash used of $807,680 was attributable to the costs generated by the prepaid consulting expenses in the amount of $2,050,515, and the increase in expenses generated by Landis and its retail operations compared to no such costs during the comparable six month period in 2005.

Net cash provided by investing activities was $950,040 for the six month period ended June 30, 2006, compared to net cash provided by investing activities of $557,894 for the six months ended June 30, 2005. The increase of cash provided in the sum of $392,146 was attributable primarily to a $2,505,241 in proceeds from marketable securities from a settlement with Diversified Financial Resources Corporation.

Cash used by financing activities was $552,194 for the six months ended June 30, 2006, compared to cash used of $497,749 for the six months ended June 30, 2005. The increase of $54,445 in cash used by financing activities was due primarily to the decrease in receipt of stock subscriptions receivable recognized during the first six months of 2006 compared to the same period of 2005.
 
Nexia may experience occasional cash flow shortages due to debt service on real estate holdings and willingness to acquire properties with negative cash flow. To cover these shortages, Nexia may need to issue shares of its common stock in payment for services rendered. The Company is currently experiencing challenges with regard to cash flows. We are looking at several options to improve this situation, including having signed for an equity line of credit with Dutchess Private Equities Fund. The agreement with Dutchess provides that, following notice to Dutchess, Nexia may put to Dutchess up to $10 million in shares of our common stock for a purchase price equal to 95% of the lowest closing best bid price on the Over-the-Counter (“OTC”) Bulletin Board of our common stock during the five day period following that notice. The number of shares that we will be permitted to put pursuant to the agreement will be either: (a) 200% of the average daily volume of our common stock for the ten trading days prior to the applicable put notice, multiplied by the average of the three daily closing “best bid” prices immediately preceding the day we issue the put, or (b) $100,000; provided that in no event will the put amount be more than $1,000,000 with respect to any single put. (Best Bid is a defined term in the agreement as the highest posted bid price for the common stock.) In turn, Dutchess has indicated that it will resell the shares of common stock in the open market; resell our shares to other investors through negotiated transactions or hold our shares in its portfolio. These shares are made the subject of this SB-2/A Registration Statement.

DESCRIPTION OF PROPERTY

Location and Description

Each of our properties competes with other general retail or office space in the greater Salt Lake City market. Occupancy rates for the area as a whole will most significantly impact our properties and the efforts to improve and upgrade the properties will enhance our ability to obtain tenants and maintain occupancy rates that will sustain the operating costs of the properties themselves.

Wasatch Capital Corporation ("Wasatch")

Wasatch, a 100% owned subsidiary of Nexia, owns the Wallace-Bennett Building, located at 55-65 West 100 South, Salt Lake City, Utah. The building is a 36,797 square foot, turn-of-the-century multi-story office building. The building was acquired in November of 1994 for a price of $800,000.

At the beginning of the year 2004 only the ground level was suitable for rent as retail space. The ground level comprises 7,816 square feet or 21% of the Building. A portion of this space is currently leased to Richard Wirick, the owner of the Oxford Shoe Shop, a retail outlet for men's shoes, for a monthly rental of $1,245 for 1350 square feet. A lounge occupies 1,900 square feet of the ground floor retail space at a monthly rental of $ 2,533.34 for the first year of a five year term ending February 28, 2010. A restaurant and an art gallery occupy the balance of the ground floor space. The average annual effective rental for the rentable ground level space is $15.00 per square foot or $117,240 in gross rental income. Tenants by contract are liable for their pro-rata shares of the taxes and insurance on the building and each tenant is liable for its own utilities.

In late 2004, the Company occupied a portion of the second floor as its main offices for which remodeling work was mostly completed during the year ended 2004. The Company occupies a total of 3,600 square feet and has space that includes a conference room and office space for the legal, accounting and executive employees of the Company. The renovations of the second floor incurred expenses totaling approximately $500,000 as of September 30, 2005.

In early 2003, Wasatch refinanced the main loan on the Wallace-Bennett Building. The terms of this loan package provided for a loan in the total amount of $850,000, an interest rate on the loan of 7.5%, with monthly payments of $8,800. The loan had a term of three years, and was due on August 10, 2006. The loan was personally guaranteed by Richard D. Surber, Nexia's President and C.E.O. Of the loan proceeds $202,920 was set aside for construction or capital improvements to the buildings securing the loan, all of which have been utilized during the second floor renovation and other upgrades to the building.

Wasatch, on or about August 25, 2006, closed on a $1,000,000 refinancing of the Wallace-Bennett Building with a new loan secured by the building. The terms of the loan include a total loan in the sum of $1,000,000; a term of 10 years, with an interest rate of 7.125% fixed for ten years and would provide for monthly payments based upon a 30 year amortization. The loan was personally guaranteed by Richard D. Surber, Nexia's President and C.E.O. Proceeds from the new financing were used to retire the prior loan secured by the building in the sum of $812,053 and included a cash payment of $149,572 to Wasatch. Wasatch intends to improve the remaining upper floor space as office space, studio locations and production space for low impact business. The terms set forth above, reclassify the loan held by Wasatch Capital from short-term debt to long-term debt which has substantially increased Nexia’s working capital.

Management believes that the building is adequately insured.

Downtown Development, Corp. ("DDC")

DDC, a 99.08% owned subsidiary of Nexia, owns a one story retail building located at 1374 South State Street, Salt Lake City, Utah, which it purchased on December 1, 1999 for $535,000. The balance on the financing owing at December 15, 2005 was $366,032. The building was appraised at $600,000 in November of 2002. In December of 2002, DDC obtained permanent financing with Community First National Bank; the loan bears interest at the rate of 7.16% per annum, with monthly payments of $3,061, with a final balloon payment due on December 5, 2012 (estimated amount $260,800). The loan was personally guaranteed by Richard D. Surber, Nexia's President and C.E.O. The building is 7,000 square feet, one story tall and constructed in the late 1960's. A bakery currently occupies 2,500 square feet of retail space under a lease in the building. DDC expended $34,100 through March 31, 2004 in renovations to the space occupied by the bakery in the property. The tenant is liable for its pro-rata shares of the taxes and insurance for the building as well as its use of utilities. This figure does not include substantial improvements made by the tenant to the same portion of the property. The balance of the space in the building is currently not occupied and the search for a tenant is ongoing. DDC believes the property is adequately insured. The retail space in the building competes for tenants with other retail space on State Street which is a commercial zone for over one mile in each direction from the property. On December 23, 2004 a Second Deed of Trust was granted against this property in favor of Joseph Corso, Jr. as security for a debenture granted to Mr. Corso in the sum of $200,000.

DDC on August 18, 2006 closed on the purchase of a lot immediately adjacent to the above described property and building located at 1374 South State Street. The total purchase price for the property was $250,000. This purchase price was financed with a short term (90 days) loan. The additional property will provide ample parking for current and future tenants of the building. DDC intends to begin making renovations to the entire property to take advantage of the added property and the potential for additional use by prospective tenants.

On September 21, 2006 DDC closed on refinancing of the loans on the building and lot on South State Street. A loan in the sum of $568,000 was secured from Cyprus Credit Federal Credit Union, the loan bears interest at the rate of 7% per annum, with monthly payments of $3,778.92, with a final balloon payment due on September 22, 2016 (estimated amount $440,261). The loan was personally guaranteed by Richard D. Surber, Nexia’s president. The remaining balance due to Rich Investment, LLC in the sum of $57,000 was restated in a new note bearing interest at the rate of 12% per annum, if the note is not paid in full with 60 days of its making, October 22, 2006, then monthly payments of $10,000 per month will be due on the 23rd day of each month until the entire balance, including interest has been paid in full.

Management believes the property held by DDC is adequately insured.
 
Kearns Development Corporation. ("Kearns")

Kearns, a 99% owned subsidiary of Nexia, owns one office building located on West Sams Boulevard in Kearns, Utah (a suburb of the Greater Salt Lake area). The building contains approximately 11,709 square feet of total floor space in a single story. The building was purchased on November 29, 2000 for a total price of $750,000. The purchase was financed with a $625,000 first mortgage from Brighton Bank with an initial variable rate of 10.97% amortized over 25 years and monthly payments of $5,632. The loan was personally guaranteed by Richard D. Surber, Nexia's President and C.E.O. This property was refinanced on January 10, 2003, $660,000 by Community First Bank, at an interest rate of 7.16%. Monthly payments are $5,223 based upon a 20 year amortization with a balloon payment of the remaining balance due on January 10, 2013 (estimated amount of $441,325). The balance owing on this loan as of December 15, 2005 was $621,363. At the time of the refinancing, the building was appraised at $980,000.

The building is leased to a tenant occupying 35% of the office space and generating monthly rentals of $3,452 at an average rate of $10.25 per square foot, the gross annual rental income from the building is $41,420. Kearns has no present plans to renovate or improve the building. Management believes that the building is adequately insured. The building competes for tenants with other office space in the Kearns area.

Management believes that this building is adequately insured.

None of the financing for the above described properties provide for pre-payment penalties.

There were no property acquisitions during the six months ended June 30, 2006.
 
On August 18, 2006 our subsidiary Downtown Development Corporation acquired one-third of an acre adjacent to the existing building it owns on State Street in Salt Lake City. The newly acquired property has no buildings or other improvements and will be used to enhance the existing building’s potential uses. The purchase price of $250,000 had short term financing and has been combined with the existing building in a long-term loan package on both properties that closed on September 21, 2006.
 
In April 2006, a 15,000 square foot office building in Salt Lake City, Utah, owned by Salt Lake Development Corporation, a subsidiary of the Company, was sold. The mortgage pay off was $545,071. In the same month, a condominium at Brian Head, a mountain recreation area near Cedar City, Utah, was sold. The mortgage pay off was $25,369.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM


Board of Directors
Nexia Holdings, Inc. and Subsidiaries
Salt Lake City, Utah


We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Nexia Holdings, Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2005 and the related consolidated statements of operations and other comprehensive loss, stockholders' equity and cash flows for the year then ended. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audit. We did not audit the financial statements of Nexia Holdings, Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2004. Those statements were audited by other auditors whose report has been furnished to us, and our opinion, insofar as it relates to the amounts included in the period ending December 31, 2004, is based solely on the report of the other auditors.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States of America). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, based on our audit and the report of other auditors, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Nexia Holdings, Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2005, and the results of their consolidated operations and other comprehensive loss and cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2005, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 to the accompanying consolidated financial statements, the Company has incurred cumulative operating losses through December 31, 2005 of $13,275,599, and has a working capital deficit of $971,535 at December 31, 2005, all of which raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plan in regard to these matters is also discussed in Note 2. These financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern.

The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

c. Accounting Method
 
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America applicable to a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business.
 
d. Compensating Cash Balances
 
The Company's subsidiary, West Jordan Real Estate Holdings, Inc. signed a note payable. As part of the note, WJREH agreed to deposit $3,750 monthly into a bank account to be used for capital improvements, tenant improvements and leasing commissions. The account balance was $80,078 at December 31, 2004. This note was paid in full as part of the sale of Glendale Plaza by WJREH and the cash balance in the capital improvements bank account was paid to WJREH during 2005, reducing the balance on December 31, 2005 to $0.
 
e. Provision for Taxes
 
Deferred taxes are provided on a liability method whereby deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards and deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences. Temporary differences are the differences between the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax bases. 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 be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment.

At December 31, 2005, the Company had net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $8,558,175 that may be offset against future taxable income from the year 2004 through 2024. No tax benefit has been reported in the December 31, 2005 consolidated financial statements since the potential tax benefit is offset by a valuation allowance of the same amount. The Company has not filed its’ 2005 tax return as of the date of filing of this Form 10-KSB.
 
Due to the change in ownership provisions of the Tax Reform Act of 1986, net operating loss carryforwards for Federal income tax reporting purposes are subject to annual limitations. Should a change in ownership occur, net operating loss carryforwards may be limited as to use in future years.

f. Fixed Assets and Depreciation
 
Fixed assets are stated at cost. Expenditures that materially increase the life of the assets are capitalized. Ordinary maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. When assets are sold, or otherwise disposed of, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any resulting gain or loss is recognized at that time. Depreciation is computed on the straight line method for financial statement purposes over the following useful lives:

Building and improvements                 15-39 Years
Furniture, equipment and fixtures          5-10 Years
Vehicles                                                   5 Years
Computer equipment and software             3 years
 
g. Revenue Recognition
 
The Company recognizes revenue from its three main sources of revenue as follows:
 
Rental Revenue
 
Rental revenues are recorded in the period in which they are earned in accordance with rental agreements and lease contracts. Rent payments are typically due by the 1st of each month. Occasionally, the Company will receive rent payments at the end of preceding months for the following months rent. The Company will record these as unearned rent until such time as the rent has been earned.
 
Sales - Salon and Consulting Revenue
 
The Company ceased providing consulting services in 2004. There may be a small amount of consulting from time to time. There was a nominal amount of revenue received in 2005 from consulting. The amount of deferred revenue at December 31, 2005 related to consulting services for which the Company received restricted securities was $988 compared to $256 for the year 2004. This represents the fair value of the portion of the available for sale securities for which revenue was deferred at December 31, 2005.
 
Landis, LLC, a hair and beauty salon began operating in November 2005. The Company, through a subsidiary, has a 20% investment in the salon. It is included in the consolidated financial statements because the Company president and CEO is the major partner in the salon business. The salon records revenue on the accrual basis of accounting.
 
h. Marketable Securities
 
The Company follows the provisions of SFAS 115 regarding marketable securities. The Company>s securities investments that are bought and held principally for the purpose of selling
 
62

 
NEXIA HOLDINGS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements


them in the near term are classified as trading securities. Trading securities are recorded at fair value on the balance sheet in current assets, with the change in fair value during the period included in earnings.
 
Securities investments that the Company has the positive intent and ability to hold to maturity are classified as held-to-maturity securities and recorded at amortized cost in investments and other assets. Securities investments not classified as either held-to-maturity or trading securities are classified as available-for-sale securities. Available-for-sale securities are recorded at fair value in investments and other assets on the balance sheet, with the change in fair value during the period excluded from earnings and recorded net of tax as a separate component of equity. All marketable securities held by the Company have been classified as available-for-sale securities.

i. Stock-based Compensation
 
The Company applies Accounting Principles Board (“APB”) Opinion NO. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and Related Interpretations”, in accounting for stock options issued to employees. Under APB No. 25, employee compensation cost is recognized when estimated fair value of the underlying stock on date of the grant exceeds exercise price of the stock option. For stock options and warrants issued to non-employees, the Company applies SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation”. SFAS No. 123 requires the recognition of compensation cost using a fair value based method whereby compensation cost is measured at the grant date based on the value of the award and is recognized over the service period, which is usually the vesting period. Stock issued for compensation is valued using the market price of the stock on the date of the related agreement.
 
The following table represents the effect on net loss and loss per share if the Company had applied the fair value based method and recognition provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 123 to stock-based employee compensation:

j. Environmental Compliance and Remediation
 
The Company determines potential liability on a site by site basis and records a liability when its existence is probable and reasonably estimable. Expenditures that do not have a future economic benefit are expensed as incurred. Expenditures that extend the life of the related property or mitigate or prevent future environmental contamination are capitalized.
 
k. Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
 
The Company evaluates its long-lived assets in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long Lived Assets". The Company recognizes impairment losses as the difference between historical cost and fair value of the asset, less costs to sell, when management determines that events and circumstances indicate a need to assess impairment, and when that assessment indicates that historical cost materially exceeds fair value, less costs to sell. There was no impairment expense of long-lived assets for the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004.
 
l. Advertising Expense
 
The Company expenses advertising costs as incurred. Advertising expense was $15,516 and $2,232 for the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively.
 
m.  Basic Loss Per Common Share
 
The computation of basic loss per share of common stock is based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period.

The Company computes net loss per share in accordance with SFAS No. 128, “Earnings per share” (SFAS 128) and SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 98 (SAB 98). Under the provisions of SFAS 128 and SAB 98, basic net loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss available to common stockholders for the period by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. The calculation of diluted net loss per share gives effect to common stock equivalents; however, potential common shares are excluded if their effect is antidilutive. For the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004, options were excluded from the computation of diluted loss per share because their effect would be antidilutive.
 
The equivalent common shares for the outstanding convertible debenture, subject to accounting for derivatives, have been excluded from the calculation of diluted net loss per share.
 
n. Use of Estimates
 
The preparation of 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 disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
 
o. Newly Issued Accounting Pronouncements
 
During the year ended December 31, 2005, the Company adopted the following accounting pronouncements:
 
FASB Interpretation No. 46 (revised)“Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities - an interpretation of ARB No. 51” - In December 2003 FASB issued this revision in which this Interpretation explains how to identify variable interest entities and how an enterprise assesses its interests in a variable interest entity to decide whether to consolidate that entity. FASB believes that the accounting for variable interest entities has become “fragmented and incomplete”. Its purpose is not to restrict the use of variable interest entities. Instead it seeks to improve financial reporting by those enterprises that are involved with variable interest entities. The adoption of FIN 46R did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.
 
65

 
NEXIA HOLDINGS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements



The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Nexia Holdings, Inc. and subsidiaries that are more than 50% owned. In addition, Nexia consolidates variable interest entities for which it is deemed to be the primary beneficiary. Nexia’s share of earnings or losses of associates, in which at least 20% of the voting securities is owned, is included in the consolidated operating results using the equity method of accounting.
 
FASB Interpretation No. 47“Accounting for Conditional Asset Retirement Obligations - an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 143” - In March 2005 FASB issued this interpretation to clarify timing issues with liability recognition for legal obligations associated with the retirement of a tangible long-lived asset when the timing and (or) method of settlement of the obligation are conditional on a future event. It also clarifies when an entity would have sufficient information to reasonably estimate the fair value of an asset retirement obligation.
 
In May 2005, the FASB issued SFAS No. 154, “Accounting Changes and Error Corrections” (“SFAS 154”). SFAS 154 replaces Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 20 “Accounting Changes” and SFAS No. 3, “Reporting Accounting Changes in Interim Financial Statements-An Amendment of APB Opinion No. 28.” SFAS 154 provides guidance on the accounting for and reporting of accounting changes and error corrections. SFAS 154 requires “retrospective application” of the direct effect of a voluntary change in accounting principle to prior periods’ financial statements where it is practicable to do so. SFAS 154 also redefines the term “restatement” to mean the correction of an error by revising previously issued financial statements. SFAS 154 is effective for accounting changes and error corrections made in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2005 unless adopted early. We do not expect the adoption of SFAS 154 to have a material impact on its consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows, except to the extent that the statement subsequently requires retrospective application of a future item.
 
In February 2006, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 155, Accounting for Certain Hybrid Financial Instruments (“SFAS No. 155”), which amends Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities (“SFAS No. 133”) and Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 140, Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities (“SFAS No. 140”). SFAS No. 155 permits fair value measurement for any hybrid financial instrument that contains an embedded derivative that otherwise would require bifurcation, establishes a requirement to evaluate interests in securitized financial assets to identify interests that are freestanding derivatives or hybrid financial instruments containing embedded derivatives.   We expect the adoption of SFAS 155 to have a material impact on its consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
 
In March 2006, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 156, Accounting for Servicing of Financial Assets (“SFAS No. 156”), which amends FASB Statement No. 140 (“SFAS No. 140”). SFAS 156 may be adopted as early as January 1, 2006, for calendar year-end entities, provided that no interim financial statements have been issued. Those not choosing to early adopt are required to apply the provisions as of the beginning of the first fiscal year that begins after September 15, 2006 (e.g., January 1, 2007, for calendar year-end entities).  The intention of the new statement is to simplify accounting for separately recognized servicing assets and liabilities, such as those common with mortgage securitization activities, as well as to
 
simplify efforts to obtain hedge-like accounting.  Specifically, the FASB said FAS No. 156 permits a servicer using derivative financial instruments to report both the derivative financial instrument and related servicing asset or liability by using a consistent measurement attribute, or fair value.  We do not expect the adoption of SFAS 155 to have a material impact on its consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements


 
NOTE 2 - GOING CONCERN
 
The Company's consolidated financial statements are prepared using accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America applicable to a going concern which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has incurred cumulative operating losses through December 31, 2005 of $13,275,599, and has a working capital deficit of $971,534 at December 31, 2005 all of which raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.
 
Primarily, revenues have not been sufficient to cover the Company's operating costs. Management's plans to enable the Company to continue as a going concern include the following:

  Increasing revenues from rental properties by implementing new marketing programs
Making certain improvements to certain rental properties in order to make them more marketable
Reducing expenses through consolidating or disposing of certain subsidiary companies
Raising additional capital through private placements of the Company's common stock
Purchasing revenue producing real estate
Decreasing payroll expenses and use of options as compensation
Using stock and option-based compensation to cover payroll and other permissible labor costs
Refinancing of the notes secured by the real property held by Wasatch Capital Corporation would have a significant effect on the working capital deficit of the Company, such refinancing is being sought by management.
Evaluating and acquiring additional operations which may have a positive effect on the cash flow and profitability of Nexia.
 
There can be no assurance that the Company can or will be successful in implementing any of its plans or that it will be successful in enabling the company to continue
as a going concern. The Company's consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements


 
On January 29, 2004 the Company, and/or its subsidiaries entered into the following agreements to settle debts and obligations with Axia Group, Inc., a related party of which Richard Surber, President of the Company, also served as an officer and director:

1.  
Diversified Holdings I, Inc. accepted the assignment of certain rights to securities with a stated value of $50,000 due in the settlement of Axia's litigation claim against America West Securities and Robert Kay.
2.  
Diversified Holdings, I, Inc. also accepted an assignment of Axia's rights (presently being litigated) against Kevin Sheff for the recovery of 10,000 post-split shares of Axia Group, Inc.'s common stock.
3.  
As settlement of compensation due under a May 2, 2003 Consultant Agreement with Hudson Consulting Group, Inc., Axia Group Inc. transferred 9,100,012 (pre-reverse split) shares of Nexia common stock to Hudson.
4.  
A full release and settlement of all claims against Axia Group, Inc. was signed by Nexia Holdings, Inc., Wasatch Capital, Inc., Hudson Consulting Group, Inc. and West Jordan Real Estate Holdings, Inc.

The end result of the agreements was to resolve and settle all claims against Axia Group, Inc. held by the named entities, all subsidiaries of Nexia Holdings, Inc. Richard Surber, President of the Company, was formerly an officer and director of Axia Group, Inc. The purpose of the above described transaction was to settle the various claims and resolve the debts and obligations that existed between Axia and the Company and its subsidiaries.

On September 28, 2004, the Company authorized the issuance of 8,000,000 shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock to the president of the Company, Richard Surber. The shares were issued as compensation for both his service as president of the Company and for acting as a guarantor on real estate mortgages for subsidiaries of the Company. The shares were issued in a private transfer exempt from registration under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933. This issuance was reported on a Form 8-K filing made on September 28, 2004.

In November of 2005, the Company acquired a 20% equity interest in Landis LLC for a $100,000 cash payment. Landis operates an AvedaTM lifestyle salon that features AvedaTM products for retail sale. Landis LLC is controlled by Nexia’s Chief Executive Officer, Richard Surber, who owns a 60% interest in Landis. Nexia has consolidated Landis for accounting purposes because of its ownership interest and common control.

On March 30, 2006 Wasatch Capital Corporation and Diversified Holdings X, Inc, a related party doing business as Black Chandelier agreed to a joint venture operation in which 50% of the net profits from Black Chandelier’s internet sales will be paid to Wasatch as a result of allowing Black Chandelier the use of equipment and space located in the Wallace Bennett buildings owned by Wasatch one of the Company’s subsidiaries. The bulk of these assets were seized for failure to pay rent and are currently being used in furtherance of the joint venture operation.

The Company has authorized up to 50,000,000 shares of preferred stock with a par value of $.001 per share. The preferred stock can be issued in various series with varying dividend rates and preferences.

As of April 15, 2006, the number of shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock issued and outstanding is none. The Series A Convertible Preferred Shares have voting rights which equate to 100 shares of common stock for every 1 Series A Preferred share and may be converted into $10 worth of common stock. A total of 10,000,000 shares have been designated and authorized as Series A Preferred Shares of a total number of 50,000,000 authorized shares of preferred stock.

On August 25, 2004, the Company filed with the Nevada Secretary of State a Certificate of Designation of the Rights and Preferences of Preferred Stock of Nexia Holdings, Inc. This designation created 10,000,000 shares, par value $0.001, of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock, out of the 50,000,000 authorized shares of preferred stock of the Company. The Series B Preferred Stock holds voting rights equal to 500 shares of common stock for each share of the Series B Preferred Stock issued, the shares do not have any conversion rights into common stock or any other class of stock of the Company. This filing was reported on an 8-K filing made on August 31, 2004.

On September 28, 2004, the Company authorized the issuance of 8,000,000 shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock to the president of the Company, Richard Surber. The shares were issued as compensation for both his service as president of the Company and for acting as a guarantor on real estate mortgages for subsidiaries of the Company. The shares were issued in a private transfer exempt from registration under section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933. This issuance was reported on a Form 8-K filing made on September 28, 2004.

On November 8, 2004, the Company filed with the Nevada Secretary of State a Certificate of Designation of the Rights and Preferences of Preferred Stock of Nexia Holdings, Inc. designated as Series C Preferred Stock.

NOTE 8 B OUTSTANDING STOCK OPTIONS
 
As permitted by FASB Statement 123 "Accounting for Stock Based Compensation B Transition and Disclosure" (SFAS No. 123), the Company elected to measure and record compensation cost relative to employee stock option costs in accordance with Accounting Principles Board ("APB") Opinion 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees", and related interpretations and make pro forma disclosures of net income and earnings per share as if the fair value method of valuing stock options had been applied.

The total number of shares covered by the 2005 plan is 1,000,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. This plan expires on the earlier of the date that is five years from the date the plan was adopted or the date on which the one billionth share is issued.
 
During 2004, the Company granted employees, consultants, advisors and others 1,246,425,823 options to purchase common stock at a floating option price set at 75% the market price at the time of exercise, resulting in the recording of $1,275,738 in compensation expense for the intrinsic value and fair values.
 
During 2005, the Company granted employees, consultants, advisors and others 1,000,000,000 options to purchase common stock at a floating option price set at either 65% or 75% of the market price at the time of exercise, resulting in the recording of $57,250 in compensation expense for the intrinsic value and fair values.

NOTE 14 - STOCK SUBSCRIPTIONS RECEIVABLE

 
The Company had stock subscriptions receivable of $11,325 and $375,009 at December 31, 2005 and 2004 respectively.

NOTE 15 B CONVERTIBLE DEBENTURES
 
On October 31, 2003, the Company issued two convertible debentures for $30,000 each. The debentures accrue interest at 18% per annum, are due November 1, 2004
and are convertible at any time after 45 days into common stock at a conversion equal to 70% of the average closing bid price of the common stock for the three
trading days immediately proceeding the date of election. The Company recognized a beneficial conversion feature debt discount of $11,609 which was fully amortized
to interest expense by December 31, 2003.
 
All except $5,000 of the debentures were paid by cash or issuing Nexia stock as of December 31, 2004, and the $5,000 balance was paid in January 2005.
 
On November 1, 2004, the Company issued a convertible debenture for $200,000. The debenture accrues interest at 24% per annum, is due November 1, 2007 and is
convertible, except for $5,000, anytime after one year into common stock at a price equal to 70% of the average closing bid price of the common stock for three
trading days immediately preceding the date of election.

NOTE 16 - CONVERTIBLE DEBENTURE DERIVATIVE AND CORRECTION OF 2004 FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 
The convertible debenture issued on November 1, 2004, and described in detail in NOTE 15 - CONVERTIBLE DEBENTURES, could be converted into Nexia common stock effective November 1, 2005 and became subject to accounting required for derivatives.
 
This transaction, to the extent that it is to be satisfied with common stock of the Company, would normally be included as equity obligations. In this instance, however, due to the indeterminate number of shares which might be issued under the embedded convertible host debt conversion feature, the Company is required to record a liability relating to the embedded convertible feature of the convertible debenture payable (included in long-term liabilities as a "Convertible debenturederivative").
 
The accompanying financial statements comply with current requirements relating to embedded derivatives as described in FAS 133, EITF 98-5 and APB 14 as follows:
 
The Company allocated the proceeds received to the convertible debt derivative with the initial allowable derivative recording.
 
Subsequent to to the initial allowable derivative recording, the increase in the intrinsic value of the embedded derivative in the conversion feature of the convertible debenture are accrued as adjustments to the liabilities at December 31, 2005.
 
The expense relating to the increase in the fair value of the Company's stock, reflected in the change in the fair value of the derivative (noted above), is included as another comprehensive income item as an unrealized gain or loss arising from convertible financing on the Company's balance sheet.
 
Accreted principal of $16,440 as of December 31, 2005.

Subsequent to the issuance of the December 31, 2004 consolidated financial statements, the Company determined that these Convertible Debentures issued in November 2004 had not been accounted for properly. A beneficial conversion feature totaling $83,571 had been recognized at the time the debt was issued in 2004 when the conversion feature was not yet in effect until November 2005, as previously discussed. In addition, the provisions of EITF - 00-27 and ABP 14 were utilized not considering the derivative features of the convertible debt requiring consideration of the provisions of EITF 00-19 and FAS 133. The effect of the correction of this error reduced additional paid-in capital by $83,571 and also reduced interest expense, net loss and total comprehensive loss by a corresponding amount in the December 31, 2004 consolidated financial statements, as restated.

NOTE 17 B DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

On April 21, 2005, West Jordan Real Estate Holdings, Inc.(WJREH) a consolidated subsidiary of Nexia sold Glendale Plaza, a commercial retail strip mall in Salt Lake City, to an unrelated party, and WJREH ceased to be an operating company.

Hudson Consulting Group, Inc., a consolidated subsidiary of the Company, discontinued providing any consulting services in early 2005. Hudson was, and continued to be, the main operating company in the Nexia consolidated group. This responsibility was primarily being the employer entity which involved hiring and

terminating employees, paying salaries and wages and preparing periodic payroll tax returns and paying the taxes. Hudson ceased all activities as of December 31, 2005, and its functions were transferred to another company in the Nexia Consolidated Group.

On March 30, 2006, the Company and Diversified Holdings X, Inc dba Black Chandelier agreed to a joint venture operation in which 50% of the net profits from Black Chandelier’s internet sales will be paid to Nexia as a result of allowing Black Chandelier the use of equipment and space located in the Wallace Bennett buildings owned by the Company’s subsidiary Wasatch Capital Corporation. The bulk of these assets were seized for failure to pay rent and are currently being used in furtherance of the joint venture operation.

NOTE 21 - GAIN ON SALE OF SUBSIDIARIES

A Nexia subsidiary, Diversified Holdings, Inc. (DH1), sold four inactive subsidiary corporations to an unrelated company for $100 on December 31, 2004. Gain of $325,839 from the sale resulted from the effect of writing off intercompany balances between the four subsidiary corporations and the other Nexia companies as net gain from forgiveness of debt. The remaining profit from the sale of $202,353 on the books of Hudson Consulting Group, Inc., is included in the 2004 loss of $1,085,455 from discontinued operations.

Nexia Holdings, Inc.’s subsidiary, West Jordan Real Estate Holdings, Inc., sold its commercial property on April 20, 2004. The gross sales price was $1,860,000, and net profit from the sale was $829,166. The net cash received was $785,030 after payment of expenses of sale and the mortgage loan balance of $958,830. The sale eliminated the restriction on the use of a special savings account for build-out and major repairs at the Glendale Plaza. The Company received the balance of $50,911 for other uses.

NEXIA HOLDINGS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements



Nexia Holdings, Inc.’s subsidiary, West Jordan Real Estate Holdings, Inc. (WJREH) received a promissory note dated May 11, 2005 for $230,000 from Diversified Financial Resources Corporation and BTA Mineral Servitude Corporation, S.A. DE C.V., a foreign corporation. The annual interest rate is 8%, and it is due in full May 11, 2006 for principal and any accrued but unpaid interest. In the event the note is not paid in full by the due date, monthly payments of not less than $5,000 shall commence on June 11, 2006 at an annual interest rate of 18%. Security for the note is an assignment of royalty interest by BTA Mineral Servitude corporation, S.A. DE C.V. to WJREH.

The note is to be considered full payment and satisfaction of two previous notes to Nexia Holdings, Inc. of $100,000 dated December 16, 2004 and $30,000 dated April 1, 2005 and an additional $100,000 in cash on the date of this note. WJREH issued a check for $130,000 to Nexia to be considered full payment of the balance of the two notes, originally totaling $130,000, and accrued interest.
 
NOTE 22 - IMPAIRMENT OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS

We have reviewed SFAS 144 and conditions which may result in impairment of long-lived assets held to generate rental revenue. We have calculated undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the rental of each property over time and the estimated amount to be realized from the eventual disposition of each property. We have concluded that the sum of the incoming cash stream from the two sources will exceed the present carrying value and there is no impairment to be recognized.
 
Market values of similar properties sold recently in our geographic area and recent appraisals of the properties exceed the carrying value of the properties.
 
There is one exception to our comments about impairment. We sold an office building in Salt Lake City in April 2006 with a resulting book loss of $114,000. The corporation which owned the building, Salt Lake Development Corporation (refer to comments in item 82 below), was acquired in August 2005 for a small amount of cash and settling out a substantial amount of debt owed to companies in the Nexia group by the previous owner of Salt Lake Development Corporation. It was determined by Company management that we had a better chance to recover the debts by purchasing S.L. Dev. Corp. and selling the property than collecting through legal action.
     
NOTE 23 - OUTSTANDING STOCK OPTIONS
 
When Nexia Holdings, Inc. issues options, they are valued at the closing fair market value of the stock on the date of issue. The options are signed on the date they are issued, forms to exercise the options are usually signed the same date and stock issue instructions are sent to the stock transfer agent the same day. The fair value of the options issued, less 75% of fair market value which is the recipient’s cost to be paid to Nexia, is the option expense recorded in the Company’s books.
 
We question if the “Fair Value Method” applies to how we issue options because the options are issued, they are usually exercised the same day, stock certificates are issued in about two days and they are cashless options because there is no money paid by the recipients until the stock is sold. Since the 2004 issue of options for which most options issued during the period of June through August 2004 were not exercised and all will have expired by June 30, 2006, there have been no options issued that were unexercised and outstanding at any quarter end.
 
80

 
NEXIA HOLDINGS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements


 
We chose the method of valuing options issued at the market value on the date they are issued because we have a very small accounting staff which makes it difficult and costly to make the time consuming Black Scholes calculations, and the Nexia stock price is extremely volatile which provides no assurance employees will receive enough sales proceeds to cover their accrued compensation.
 
The 135,000 exercisable options, shown as outstanding in Note 3 of the March 31, 2006 10-QSB, were issued to one person, and the options will have expired by June 30, 2006.
 
The weighted-average fair value of stock options granted to employees during the periods ended December 31, 2005 and 2004, and the weighted-average significant assumptions used to determine those fair values, using a Black-Scholes option pricing model are as follow:
 
   
2005
 
2004
 
Significant assumptions (weighted-average):
         
Risk-free interest rate at grant date
   
4.875
%
 
4.875
%
Expected stock price volatility
   
161

%
Expected dividend payout
   
-
   
-
 
Expected option life - days (1)
   
181
   
55 - 547
 
 
(1)  
The expected option life is based on option expiration dates.

If the Company recognized compensation expense for the outstanding stock options in accordance with SFAS No. 123 (revised), the Company’s net losses for the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004 would have been $(148,573) and $(3,010,665) respectively and the net losses per share for the same years would have been $(0.0000) and $(0.0333) respectively.
      
NOTE 24 - ACQUISITION OF SALT LAKE DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION

The following disclosures are made in accordance with SFAS 141:

ACQUISITIONS

On August 8 , 2005, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, Diversified Holdings 1, Inc., acquired 99% of the outstanding common stock of Salt Lake Development Corporation. The results of Salt Lake Development’s operations have been included in the consolidated financial statements since that date. The primary asset of Salt Lake Development Corporation is an office building in downtown Salt Lake City. The purpose of the reacquisition was to sell the office building as soon as possible to recover net debt owed to Nexia and several of its subsidiaries by the former owner of Salt Lake Development Corporation. This debt was settled out in the purchase transaction as part of the cost of the acquisition. The aggregate purchase price was $875,000, including $20,000 cash paid for the stock, $307,966 of settled out debt owed by the former owner of Salt Lake Development Corporation and assumption of all of the debt of Salt Lake Development Corporation.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

NOTE 1 - BASIS OF FINANCIAL STATEMENT PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements for Nexia Holdings, Inc. and Subsidiaries (the Company) have been prepared by the Company pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted in accordance with such rules and regulations. The information furnished in the interim consolidated financial statements includes normal recurring adjustments and reflects all adjustments, which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of such financial statements. Although management believes the disclosures and information presented are adequate to make the information not misleading, it is suggested that these interim consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the Company’s most recent audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in its December 31, 2005 Annual Report on Form 10-KSB. Operating results for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2006 are not indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2006.

NOTE 2 - GOING CONCERN

The Company’s consolidated financial statements are prepared using accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America applicable to a going concern which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. The company has incurred cumulative operating losses through June 30, 2006 of $12,179,619 which raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. This represents a decrease in the cumulative operating loss of $1,095,980 for the six months ended June 30, 2006. The Company had a positive working capital balance at June 30, 2006 of $1,362,009.

Revenue has not been sufficient to cover the Company’s operating costs. Management’s plans to enable the company to continue as a going concern include the following:

·  
Increase revenue from rental properties by implementing new marketing programs.
·  
Acquire additional operating companies in the retail sector.
·  
Make improvements to certain rental properties in order to make them more marketable.
·  
Reduce expenses through consolidating or disposing of certain subsidiary companies.
·  
Purchase revenue producing real estate.
·  
Raise additional capital through private placements of the Company’s common stock.
·  
Use stock and option-based compensation to cover payroll and other permissible labor costs.
·  
Refinancing of the note secured by the real property held by Wasatch Capital Corporation which will improve the working capital of the Company by $900,000.

There can be no assurance that the Company can or will be successful in implementing any of its plans or that it will be successful in enabling the company to continue as a going concern. The Company’s consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

NOTE 10 - OFFICER SALARY

There was an accrued salary liability of $88,213 payable to Richard Surber, President and CEO, at June 30, 2006. Mr. Surber has been paid compensation of $22,439 through June 30, 2006. Mr. Surber has elected to defer being paid most of his accrued salary because of the Company’s need for additional cash to grow its holdings. The Company anticipates that Mr. Surber’s salary will be paid current by the end of 2006.

NOTE 11 - SETTLEMENT OF DEBT

In June 2003, Nexia’s subsidiary, Diversified Holdings 1, Inc. (“DH1”), sold several subsidiaries, which held real estate, to Diversified Financial Resources Corporation (“DVFF”). DVFF issued restricted common stock with a guaranteed liquidation value of not less than $1 per share. DVFF agreed to issue additional shares or pay cash to ensure that Nexia would realize $1 million in cash upon selling the one million DVFF shares.

The DVFF shares were subject to several reverse stock splits, and the shares became worthless. The DVFF stock was never recorded on the Nexia books.

Nexia’s subsidiary, DH1, received 25 million shares of DVFF unrestricted common stock from a settlement agreement dated June 1, 2006 to replace the stock received in 2003, in full settlement for the debt. DH1 distributed 20 million shares of the DVFF unrestricted common stock, in June 2006, to investor relations firms and consultants as compensation for their services, as referenced in Note 12, and DH1 retained the remaining 5 million shares. There was a 1 to 12.5 reverse split of the DVFF stock on July 12, 2006, and Nexia’s post reverse holding was reduced to 400,000 shares.

DH1 recorded the 400,000 DVFF shares at their fair market value of $505,000 at June 30, 2006. DH1 recognized gain on the 20 million shares issued to consultants of $2,400,000 at June 30, 2006. Of the $2,400,000, $359,000 was expensed as consulting fees, and the remaining $2,041,000 was recorded as prepaid expense as of June 30, 2006 to be amortized as consulting fees expense over the life of the consulting contracts.

DH1 received $10,000 in April 2006 from Mid America Capital as payment on a debt by West America Securities arising from a litigation settlement with DH1 in a previous year. The original recorded receivable was $50,000; however, it was written off as uncollectible in a year-end audit. Mid America Capital made several payments in 2005 and the $10,000 received in 2006. Payments received by DHI at June 30, 2006 total $42,500. All of the payments have been recorded as income when received.

Hallmark Construction & Development, L.L.C. v. Wasatch Capital Corporation, Community First National Bank, CUBCO, Inc. and John Does 1-10. Action was filed on or about August 18, 2005, in the Third Judicial District Court of Salt Lake County, State of Utah, Civil Case No. 050914860. Hallmark Construction & Development LLC had filed suit against Wasatch Capital Corporation seeking collection of $92,000 in alleged unpaid construction costs for the improvements and work provided on the Wallace/Bennett buildings owned by Wasatch Capital. In June of 2006, Hallmark released the lien claim in full and assigned all claims arising from the work on the building to Wasatch. The matter was subsequently heard by the assigned arbitrator who entered a finding in favor of Wasatch Capital, granting a judgment to Wasatch against Hallmark in the sum of $99,791.12, which includes overpayment, damages for defective work, attorney fees, costs, arbitration fees and provides for interest both pre and post-judgment.

NOTE 18 - ADJUSTMENT OF JUNE 30, 2006 STATEMENTS OF OPERATIONS

During preparation of the consolidated comparative statements of operations for six months to June 30, 2006, it was determined there was an error in the comparative statement for three months to June 30, 2005. In the three months ended June 30, 2005 column of the June 30, 2005 statements of operation, other income (expense), a line item titled Other Income - Debt forgiven showed an amount of ($14,442). This was an incorrect line item and amount, and the line description and amount were adjusted out of the June 30, 2006 consolidated comparative statements of operations. It is the opinion of Company management that the amount is immaterial and would have no effect on the three months ended June 30, 2005 net income per weighted average shares outstanding.
 
CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURES

On December 1, 2005, HJ & Associates, LLC (the “Former Accountant”) resigned as the auditors for the Company.

The reports of the Former Accountant on the financial statements of the Company for each of the two most recent fiscal years, did not contain an adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion and was not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles for the two most recent fiscal years and the first two subsequent interim periods of 2005, except that the Former Accountant’s opinion in its report on the Company’s financial statements expressed substantial doubt with respect to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for the last two fiscal years.
 
98


During the Company’s two recent fiscal years and the subsequent interim periods through the date of resignation, there were no reportable events as the term described in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-B except for the following:

The Former Accountant advised management that the most recent interim report, the 10-QSB for the period ended September 30, 2005 was filed prior to the Former Accountant completing its review and that they were requesting corrections be made to the consolidation and the accounting for the acquisition by the Company of Salt Lake Development Corporation. This report has been amended and a 10-QSB/A was filed on December 14, 2005, with the Company’s new accountant Bongiovanni & Associates, P.A. conducting the review, including changes to the consolidation and accountings related to the acquisition of Salt Lake Development Corporation.

During the Company’s two most recent fiscal years and the subsequent interim period through the date of resignation, there were no disagreements with the Former Accountant on any matters of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure or auditing scope or procedure, which, if not resolved to the satisfaction of the Former Accountant, would have caused it to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreement in connection with its reports on these financial statements for those periods.

On December 8, 2005, Bongiovanni & Associates, P.A. (“Bongiovanni”) of 17111 Kenton Drive, Suite 204-B, Cornelius, North Carolina 28031 was retained as the auditors for the Company.

In making the selection of Bongiovanni the Company’s management and board of directors reviewed auditor independence issues and the absence of any pre-existing business or commercial relationship with Bongiovanni and concluded that there are no such relationships that would impair the independence of Bongiovanni.

During the two fiscal years ended December 31, 2003 and December 31, 2004 and through December 8, 2005, the Company did not consult with Bongiovanni & Associates regarding any of the matters or events set forth in Item 304(a)(2)(i) and (ii) or Regulation S-B.

On January 26, 2006, De Joya Griffith & Company, LLC. (“De Joya”) of 6330 McLeod Drive, Suite 1, Las Vegas, Nevada 89102 was retained as the auditors for Nexia Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”).

In making the selection of De Joya the Company’s management and board of directors reviewed auditor independence issues and the absence of any pre-existing business or commercial relationship with De Joya and concluded that there are no such relationships that would impair the independence of De Joya. The board and management of the Company concluded that the geographical proximity would benefit the Company in working with De Joya and promote the timely completion of work requested from De Joya.

During the two fiscal years ended December 31, 2003 and December 31, 2004 and through January 24, 2006, the Company did not consult with De Joya Griffith & company, LLC regarding any of the matters or events set forth in Item 304(a)(2)(i) and (ii) or Regulation S-B.

On January 26, 2006 the Company informed its prior accountant Bongiovanni & Associates, P.A. that it was dismissed as the Company’s auditors.

During the Company’s two most recent fiscal years and the subsequent interim period through the date of dismissal, there were no disagreements with Bongiovanni on any matters of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure or auditing scope or procedure, which, if not resolved to the satisfaction of Bongiovanni, would have caused it to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreement in connection with its reports on these financial statements for those periods.

PART II

INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS

Sections 78.7502 and 78.751 of the Nevada Business Corporation Act, as amended, provide for the indemnification of the Company's officers, directors, employees and agents under certain circumstances as follows:

NRS 78.7502 DISCRETIONARY AND MANDATORY INDEMNIFICATION OF OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES AND AGENTS: GENERAL PROVISIONS.

1. A corporation may indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, except an action by or in the right of the corporation, by reason of the fact that he is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, against expenses, including attorneys' fees, judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with the action, suit or proceeding if he acted in good faith and in a manner which he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful. The termination of any action, suit or proceeding by judgment, order, settlement, conviction or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, does not, of itself, create a presumption that the person did not act in good faith and in a manner which he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and that, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, he had reasonable cause to believe that his conduct was unlawful.

2. A corporation may indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action or suit by or in the right of the corporation to procure a judgment in its favor by reason of the fact that he is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise against expenses, including amounts paid in settlement and attorneys' fees actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with the defense or settlement of the action or suit if he acted in good faith and in a manner which he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation. Indemnification may not be made for any claim, issue or matter as to which such a person has been adjudged by a court of competent jurisdiction, after exhaustion of all appeals therefrom, to be liable to the corporation or for amounts paid in settlement to the corporation, unless and only to the extent that the court in which the action or suit was brought or other court of competent jurisdiction determines upon application that in view of all the circumstances of the case, the person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses as the court deems proper.

3. To the extent that a director, officer, employee or agent of a corporation has been successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any action, suit or proceeding referred to in subsections 1 and 2, or in defense of any claim, issue or matter therein, the corporation shall indemnify him against expenses, including attorneys' fees, actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with the defense.

NRS 78.751 AUTHORIZATION REQUIRED FOR DISCRETIONARY INDEMNIFICATION; ADVANCEMENT OF EXPENSES; LIMITATION ON INDEMNIFICATION AND ADVANCEMENT OF EXPENSES.

1. Any discretionary indemnification under NRS 78.7502 unless ordered by a court or advanced pursuant to subsection 2, may be made by the corporation only as authorized in the specific case upon a determination that indemnification of the director, officer, employee or agent is proper in the circumstances. The determination must be made: (a) By the stockholders; (b) By the board of directors by majority vote of a quorum consisting of directors who were not parties to the action, suit or proceeding; (c) If a majority vote of a quorum consisting of directors who were not parties to the action, suit or proceeding so orders, by independent legal counsel in a written opinion; or (d) If a quorum consisting of directors who were not parties to the action, suit or proceeding cannot be obtained, by independent legal counsel in a written opinion.

2. The articles of incorporation, the bylaws or an agreement made by the corporation may provide that the expenses of officers and directors incurred in defending a civil or criminal action, suit or proceeding must be paid by the corporation as they are incurred and in advance of the final disposition of the action, suit or proceeding, upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of the director or officer to repay the amount if it is ultimately determined by a court of competent jurisdiction that he is not entitled to be indemnified by the corporation. The provisions of this subsection do not affect any rights to advancement of expenses to which corporate personnel other than directors or officers may be entitled under any contract or otherwise by law.

3. The indemnification and advancement of expenses authorized in or ordered by a court pursuant to this section: (a) Does not exclude any other rights to which a person seeking indemnification or advancement of expenses may be entitled under the articles of incorporation or any bylaw, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise, for either an action in his official capacity or an action in another capacity while holding his office, except that indemnification, unless ordered by a court pursuant to NRS 78.7502 or for the advancement of expenses made pursuant to subsection 2, may not be made to or on behalf of any director or officer if a final adjudication establishes that his acts or omissions involved intentional misconduct, fraud or a knowing violation of the law and was material to the cause of action. (b) Continues for a person who has ceased to be a director, officer, employee or agent and inures to the benefit of the heirs, executors and administrators of such a person.
 
Articles of Incorporation.
 
The Company's Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation provide that the personal liability of a director or officer of the Company to the Company or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty, for any action taken or for any failure to take any action, as a director or officer, shall be eliminated to the fullest extent permissible under Nevada law, except for (a) acts or omissions which involve intentional misconduct, fraud, infliction of harm on the Company or its stockholders or a knowing violation of criminal law, (b) the payment of distributions in violation of Section 78.300 of the Nevada Revised Statutes, or (c) the amount of a financial benefit received by a director to which he is not entitled.
 
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the Company, the Company has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities ( other than the payment by the Company of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Company in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceedings) is asserted by such director, officer, or controlling person in connection with any securities being registered, the Company will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issues.
