The Board of Directors has set December 24, 2010 as the Record Date (the Record Date) for the determination of stockholders entitled to notice of and to vote at the Annual Meeting and any adjournment thereof.
As of the Record Date, there were 34,093,578 shares of the Company's Common Stock (the Common Stock), issued and outstanding. Each share of Common Stock is entitled to one vote on all issues requiring a stockholder vote at the Annual Meeting. We have two series of preferred stock outstanding that vote along with the Common Stock on all matters requiring a vote of shareholders. There are 125,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock issued and outstanding. Each share of Series A Preferred Stock has 208 votes. Therefore the voting power of Series A Preferred Stock is an aggregate of 26,000,000 votes to be voted along with the Common Stock. There are 125,000 shares of Series B Preferred Stock issued and outstanding. Each share of Series A Preferred Stock has 248 votes. Therefore the voting power of Series B Preferred Stock is an aggregate of 31,000,000 votes to be voted along with the Common Stock. The total aggregate voting power of all issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock, Series A Preferred Stock and Series B Preferred Stock is 91,093,578 votes.
The presence, in person or by Proxy, of a majority of the outstanding shares of Common Stock, Series A Preferred Stock and Series B Preferred Stock on the Record Date is necessary to constitute a quorum at the Annual Meeting. Abstentions and broker non-votes, which are discussed more fully below, will be treated as shares present at the Annual Meeting for purposes of determining a quorum.
Directors are elected by a plurality of the votes present in person or represented by Proxy at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote with a quorum present. The three persons who receive the greatest number of votes represented in person or by Proxy at the Annual Meeting will be elected Directors of Company. There is no cumulative voting for our Directors or for any other proposal in this proxy statement.
Proposal One: | The election of three directors for a term of one year each or until their successors are elected and qualified; |
|
|

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION
Since inception, no compensation has been paid to the executive officers or directors. We have no employee stock or stock option plans. There are no employment contracts with our officers or directors.
Certain Transactions
On October 5, 2009, the Company entered into an agreement with Crown Financial LLC, a company providing advisory services that employs Mr. Sharp. This agreement included a note payable to Crown Financial LLC in the amount of $500,000. The Company will pay Crown Financial LLC a total of $500,000 plus interest at the rate of 8% until paid in full for past advisory services.
The Company further agreed to compensate Crown Financial LLC for future services beginning October 1, 2009 through December 31, 2012 as follows:
Period |
|
| Amount |
|
|
|
|
October through December 2009 |
| $ | 36,000 |
Year ending December 31, 2010 |
|
| 240,000 |
Year ending December 31, 2011 |
|
| 360,000 |

|
| 600,000 |
|
|
|
|
Total due under the agreement |
| $ | 1,236,000 |
The service agreement with Crown is non-cancelable and is fully collateralized by our assets. All payments due under this agreement are due semi-monthly. If payments are not paid within ten days of the date due or if the Company elects to terminate the agreement for any reason, all payments due under the contract will be accelerated and be due to be paid in full. Further, the Company waived all notice in the event of foreclosure notices on assets.
Our major asset is the right to surface mine 350 acres of land for sand and gravel mining. The land is owned by Jewel and Lisa Hunt. The surface mining rights agreement provides for the payment of a royalty to the Jewel and Lisa Hunt equal to 10 percent of the sold price of all products mined, processed, removed or manufactured and sold from the property. On December 1, 2008, the Company's board of directors approved the prepayment of royalties to Jewel and Lisa Hunt, not to exceed $450,000 per year. Based on the board's actions, the Company made advanced or prepaid royalty payments to Jewel and Lisa Hunt of $274,276, and $4,000 during the year ended December 31, 2009, and the period from inception, December 1, 2008, through December 31, 2008, respectively.
Jewel and Lisa Hunt maintain a satellite office that is used for Company business. This office is responsible for property maintenance, security and computer operations and is located near the property subject to surface mining rights. On December 1, 2008, the Company approved a payment of rent to Jewel and Lisa Hunt of $9,000 per month. The Company also paid expenses on behalf of the Hunts totaling $306 and $21,395, respectively during the year ended December 31, 2009, and the period from inception, December 1, 2008, through December 31, 2008.
On October 29, 2010, John Bingham became the Acting CFO for the Company. Under the Company's current agreement with Mr. Binghams financial consulting company, Agility Business Partners LLC, the Company will pay Agility for Mr. Bingham's services at $150 an hour for services performed on behalf of the Company.

PROPOSAL 2
APPROVAL AND ADOPTION OF THE AMENDMENT OF THE ARTICLES OF INCORPORATION OF THE COMPANY TO PROVIDE THAT WHENEVER THE VOTE OF STOCKHOLDERS AT A MEETING THEREOF IS REQUIRED OR PERMITTED TO BE TAKEN IN CONNECTION WITH CORPORATE ACTION, THE MEETING AND VOTE OF STOCKHOLDERS MAY BE DISPENSED WITH IF SHAREHOLDERS HOLDING SHARES HAVING NOT LESS THAN THE MINIMUM NUMBER OF VOTES THAT WOULD BE NECESSARY TO AUTHORIZE OR TAKE SUCH ACTION AT A MEETING AT WHICH ALL OF THE SHARES ENTITLED TO VOTE THEREON WERE PRESENT AND VOTED CONSENT TO SUCH ACTION IN WRITING.
Situations may arise in the future requiring shareholder action by shareholder vote at a meeting of shareholders. The amendment would allow the Board to seek the written consent of a majority of shareholders to take corporate action in lieu of a meeting of shareholders. Also, the amendment would allow a majority of shareholders to take action without seeking Board approval. The same type of majority of votes as may be required for shareholder action at a meeting would be necessary to take action by written shareholder consent. The Board believes that the ability to take shareholder action by consent would allow us to reduce our costs and to take corporate action rapidly since a shareholder meeting may not be necessary if there is a majority written consent of shareholders to take action. At the present time, there are ten shareholders who in the aggregate would hold sufficient voting power to carry out shareholder action by written consent if the amendment passed. Under this proposal a majority of shareholders could also take corporate action by submitting written majority consent without prior board approval.
The Board does not know of any corporate action in the proximate future that would be done by majority shareholder written consent. The terms of the issuance of common stock in the future will be determined by the board.
The language of the proposed amendment is as follows:
The Company hereby amends its Articles of Incorporation to provide that whenever the vote of stockholders at a meeting thereof is required or permitted to be taken in connection with corporate action, the meeting and vote of stockholders may be dispensed with if shareholders holding shares having not less than the minimum number of votes that would be necessary to authorize or take such action at a meeting at which all of the shares entitled to vote thereon were present and voted consent to such action in writing.
The Board recommends a vote FOR the amendment.

PROPOSAL 3
APPROVAL AND ADOPTION OF THE AMENDMENT OF THE ARTICLES OF INCORPORATION OF THE COMPANY TO CHANGE THE NAME OF THE COMPANY TO HUNT GLOBAL RESOURCES, INC.
In October 2010 we acquired a private company named Hunt Global Resources, Inc., a Texas corporation, which is now our wholly-owned subsidiary. We are a Colorado corporation. The Board desires to change our name to Hunt Global Resources, Inc. since most of our present operations relate to the operations of our wholly-owned subsidiary. The affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast at the meeting is required for ratification.
The language of the proposed amendment is as follows:
The new entity name:
Hunt Global Resources, Inc.
The Board recommends a vote FOR the amendment
11
PROPOSAL 4
APPROVAL AND ADOPTION OF THE AMENDMENT OF THE ARTICLES OF INCORPORATION OF THE COMPANY TO PROVIDE THAT THERE ARE AUTHORIZED 500,000,000 SHARES OF COMMON STOCK.
We presently have authorized 100,000,000 shares of common stock. The Board desires to amend the Articles of Incorporation of the Company to provide that there are authorized 500,000,000 shares of common stock. As a result of our acquisition of our wholly-owned subsidiary, Hunt Global Resources, Inc., a Texas corporation, we have issued, reserved or will issue and reserve all of the presently available 100,000,000 shares of authorized common stock. The Board believes that increasing the number of authorized shares of common stock will provide the Company with common stock to use as payment for future acquisitions. At the present time there are no likely, probable or definitive acquisitions, nor do we have any likely, probable or definitive uses for the additional authorized shares of common stock.
As we issue more shares of common stock your percentage ownership of the Company will decrease and as a result your voting power will decrease. As we issue more shares, any funds we may use for dividends will have to be distributed among more shares of common stock and you will receive a smaller dividend. The Company has never paid a dividend and does not intend to pay a dividend in the foreseeable future. The Company intends to use any funds that otherwise may be available for dividends as working capital to expand operations. The affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast at the meeting is required for ratification.
The language of the proposed amendment is as follows:
The Company hereby amends its Articles of Incorporation to authorized 500,000,000 shares of common stock.
Description of Common Stock
All shares of common stock, no par value, are equal to each other with respect to voting, liquidation, and dividend rights. Special shareholders' meetings may be called by the executive officers or directors, or upon the request of holders of at least one-tenth of the outstanding shares of common stock. Holders of common stock are entitled to one vote at any shareholders meeting for each share of common stock that they own as of the record date fixed by the board of directors. Holders of shares of common stock are entitled to receive such dividends as may be declared by the board of directors out of funds legally available therefore, and upon liquidation are entitled to participate pro rata in a distribution of assets available for such a distribution to holders of common stock. There are no conversion rights, pre-emptive rights, subscription rights or cumulative voting rights or privileges with respect to shares of common stock.
The Board recommends a vote FOR the amendment
As a result of our acquisition of our wholly-owned subsidiary Hunt Global Resources, Inc., a Texas corporation, in October 2009, the financial statements of Hunt Global Resources, Inc., a Texas corporation, became our financial statements. Ham, Langston & Brezina LLP audited the financial statements of Hunt Global Resources, Inc., a Texas corporation for the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008.
The former independent registered public accounting firm for the Company was Cordovano & Honeck. On November 3, 2010 we dismissed our certifying accountant Cordovano & Honeck (C&H). Our decision to dismiss C&H was recommended by executive management and approved by our Board of Directors (the Company has no Audit Committee). The decision to dismiss C&H was made in connection with our acquisition of Hunt Global Resources, Inc. C&H served as our independent registered public accounting firm to audit the financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009 and 2008. With the exception of an expressed uncertainty regarding our possible continuation as a going concern, the reports of C&H for the past two years did not contain an adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, nor were they modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principles.
During the fiscal years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008 and subsequently to November 3, 2010, there were no disagreements with C&H on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure that, if not resolved to C&H's satisfaction, would have caused them to make reference to the subject matter in connection with their reports on the Company's consolidated financial statement for such years, and there were no reportable events, as listed in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K. We did not consult with C&H on any issues.
The Company has provided C&H with a copy of the foregoing disclosures and requested in writing that C&H furnish the Company with a letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether or not they agree with such disclosures. C&H has provided the letter stating its agreement with our statements herein.
12
Ham Langston & Brezina, LLP (HLB) was the independent registered public accounting firm of Hunt. In connection with our acquisition of Hunt, we appointed HLB as the successor independent registered public accounting firm on November 4, 2010.
Prior to such appointment, Hunt consulted with HLB with respect to the application of accounting principles to specified transactions, either completed or proposed only in HLBs position as auditors in an auditor/client relationship and there were no disagreements with HLB with respect to the accounting principles applied to specified transactions by Hunt. Prior to their appointment as auditors, we did not consult HLB regarding the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Company's consolidated financial statements, or any other matter or reportable events listed in Items 304(a)(2)(i) and (ii) of Regulation S-K.
The Company has provided HLB with a copy of the foregoing disclosures and requested in writing that HLB furnish the Company with a letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether or not they agree with such disclosures. HLB has provided a letter stating its agreement with our statements herein.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors and Management of
Hunt Global Resources, Inc.
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Hunt Global Resources, Inc. and subsidiary (a development stage company) (the Company), as of December 31, 2009 and 2008, and the consolidated statements of operations, shareholders equity (deficit), and cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2009 and the periods from December 1, 2008 (date of inception) through December 31, 2009 and 2008. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Companys management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the 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 audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, such consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2009 and 2008, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2009 and the periods from December 1, 2008 (date of inception) through December 31, 2009 and 2008, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
As shown in the financial statements, the Company incurred net losses $10,903,514 and $819,369 for the year ended December 31, 2009 and the period from December 1, 2008 through December 31, 2008, respectively. At December 31, 2009, current liabilities exceed current assets by $5,088,346. These factors, and the others discussed in Note 3, raise substantial doubt about the Companys ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded assets, or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary in the event the Company cannot continue in existence.

HUNT GLOBAL RESOURCES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY
(A DEVELOPMENT STAGE COMPANY)
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. ORGANIZATION AND NATURE OF BUSINESS
Hunt Global Resources, Inc. and Subsidiary (Hunt or the Company) is a Houston based development stage company focused on the production of aggregates, including sand and gravel. The Companys business model centers on using new, green and more efficient extraction and processing methods to enhance profit and shareholder value. The Company has one wholly-owned subsidiary, Hunt BioSolutions, Inc.
On December 1, 2008, the Company secured the surface mining rights to 350 acres of land in northwest Houston which contains high-grade sand and gravel reserves, whose size and color variations are very desirable in the marketplace. All of the sand and gravel is contained from the surface to a depth of fifty feet. The mining process is surface mining which uses tractors and conveyors to extract the material. The process is safer and less expensive than other mining processes, and the project meets all requirements for the permits that are required in the state of Texas for this type of mining. The Company is preparing to build a state-of-the-art sand and gravel plant, projected to be operating at full capacity in early 2011. See Note 4 for further disclosures on this transaction.
Additionally, due to the positive results from the laboratory testing of its frac sand reserves, the Company is planning to coat its frac sand with resin. Frac sand is used as part of a fracturing process to enhance domestic oil and gas production; this process has facilitated the extraction of more than 600 trillion cubic feet of gas and 7 billion barrels of oil. The sand used for fracing is mined and not manufactured, and the supply is limited in the U.S. When raw frac sand is resin-coated, its value and demand significantly increase because the resin coating dramatically strengthens each grain, and this resistance to crushing prevents loss of permeability in fractures. This added feature dramatically increases the products market value.
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICES
In June 2009, the FASB issued the FASB Accounting Standard Codification ™ (the “Codification”). The Codification becomes the single source of authoritative nongovernmental U.S. GAAP, superseding existing authoritative literature. The codification establishes one level of authoritative GAAP. All other literature is considered non-authoritative. This Statement was effective beginning with our financial statements issued for the year ended December 31, 2009. As a result, references to authoritative accounting literature in our financial statement disclosures are referenced in accordance with the Codification.
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Hunt and its wholly-owned subsidiary. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires the use of estimates and assumptions by management in determining the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of 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. Our significant estimates primarily relate to the assessment of warrants and debt and equity transactions and the estimated lives and methods used in determining depreciation of fixed assets. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICES, CONTINUED
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include all highly liquid investments having maturities of three months or less at the date of purchase.
Equity Method Investments
The Company accounts for non-marketable investments using the equity method of accounting if the investment provides the Company with the ability to exercise significant influence over, but not control of, an investee. Significant influence generally exists with an ownership interest representing between 20% and 50% of the voting stock of an investee. Under the equity method of accounting, investments are stated at initial cost and adjusted for subsequent additional investments and the Company's proportionate share of earnings or losses and distributions. The Company currently has one equity method investee, Momentum, and we record our share of Momentum's earnings or losses in equity in losses of Momentum in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. Where the Company's investment balance is reduced to zero from its proportionate share of losses, as in the case of Momentum, the investments are accounted for under the cost method. Under the cost method, investments are carried at cost and adjusted only for other-than-temporary declines in fair value, distributions of earnings or additional investments.
Property, Plant and Equipment, Net
Property and equipment is recorded at original cost. Assets acquired in connection with business combinations are recorded at the assets fair value. Repairs and maintenance are charged to expenses as incurred. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method based on the estimated useful lives of assets. This method is applied to group asset accounts, which in general have the following lives: buildings and leasehold improvements 15 years; machinery and equipment 5 to 7 years; furniture, fixtures and software 5 years; and computer hardware 3 years. When we retire or dispose of property, plant or equipment, we remove the related cost and accumulated depreciation from our accounts and reflect any resulting gain or loss in our statements of operations.
The recoverability of our long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangibles are evaluated for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets is measured by comparing the carrying amount of an asset to future undiscounted net cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. Such evaluations for impairment are significantly impacted by estimates of future prices, capital needs, economic trends in the applicable construction sector and other factors. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds their fair value. Assets to be disposed of by sale are reflected at the lower of their carrying amounts, or fair values, less cost to sell.
Surface Mining Rights
A significant portion of our intangible assets are contractual rights in place associated with obtaining, zoning, permitting and other rights to access and extract aggregates reserves. Contractual rights in place associated with aggregates reserves are amortized using a unit-of-production method based on estimated recoverable units. Other intangible assets are amortized principally by the straight-line method.
Accretion of Asset Retirement Obligations
Accretion reflects the period-to-period increase in the carrying amount of the liability for asset retirement obligations. It is computed using the same credit-adjusted, risk-free rate used to initially measure the liability at fair value.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICES, CONTINUED
Fair Value Measurements
Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The fair value hierarchy prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three broad levels as described below:
Level 1: Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;
Level 2: Inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data;
Level 3: Inputs that are unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement.
Stripping Costs
In the mining industry, the costs of removing overburden and waste materials to access mineral deposits are referred to as stripping costs. Stripping costs incurred during the production phase are considered a costs of extracted minerals, inventoried, and recognized in cost of sales in the same period as the revenue from the sale of the inventory. Additionally, such costs inventory only to the extent inventory exists at the end of a reporting period. Stripping costs incurred during the development stage of a mine (pre-production stripping) are excluded from inventory cost. Pre-production stripping costs will be expensed as incurred.
Other Costs
Costs are charged to earnings as incurred for the start-up of new plants and for normal recurring costs of mineral exploration and research and development.
Reclamation Costs
Reclamation costs resulting from the normal use of long-lived assets are recognized over the period the asset is in use only if there is a legal obligation to incur these costs upon retirement of the assets. Additionally, reclamation costs resulting from the normal use under a mineral lease are recognized over the lease term only if there is a legal obligation to incur these costs upon expiration of the lease. The obligation, which cannot be reduced by estimated offsetting cash flows, is recorded at fair value as a liability at the obligating event date and is accreted through charges to operating expenses. This fair value is also capitalized as part of the carrying amount of the underlying asset and depreciated over the estimated useful life of the asset. If the obligation is settled for other than the carrying amount of the liability, a gain or loss is recognized on settlement.
In determining the fair value of the obligation, the cost for a third party to perform the legally required reclamation tasks, including a reasonable profit margin, is estimated. The estimated cost is then increased for both future estimated inflation and an estimated market risk premium related to the estimated years to settlement. Once calculated, this cost is discounted to fair value using present value techniques with a credit-adjusted, risk-free rate commensurate with the estimated years to settlement.
In estimating the settlement date, the current facts and conditions are evaluated to determine the most likely settlement date. If this evaluation identifies alternative estimated settlement dates, a weighted-average settlement date, considering the probabilities of each alternative, is used.
Reclamation obligations are reviewed at least annually for a revision to the cost or a change in the estimated settlement date. Additionally, reclamation obligations are reviewed in the period that a triggering event occurs that would result in either a revision to the cost or a change in the estimated settlement date. Examples of events that would trigger a change in the cost include a new reclamation law or amendment of an existing mineral lease. Examples of events that would trigger a change in the estimated settlement date include the acquisition of additional reserves or the closure of a facility.

Environmental Compliance
Environmental compliance costs are expected to include maintenance and operating costs for pollution control facilities, the cost of ongoing monitoring programs, the cost of remediation efforts and other similar costs. Although we have not incurred any significant environmental compliance expenses to date, we will expense or capitalize environmental expenditures for current operations or for future revenues consistent with our capitalization policy.
Costs for environmental assessment and remediation efforts will be accrued when the Company determines that a liability is probable and a reasonable estimate the cost can be determined. At the early stages of a remediation effort, environmental remediation liabilities are not easily quantified due to the uncertainties of varying factors. The range of an estimated remediation liability is defined and redefined as events in the remediation effort occur.
Earnings per share (EPS)
The Company reports two earnings per share numbers, basic and diluted. These are computed by dividing net earnings (loss) by the weighted-average common shares outstanding (basic EPS) or weighted-average common shares outstanding assuming dilution (diluted EPS).
All dilutive common stock equivalents are reflected in our earnings per share calculations. Anti-dilutive common stock equivalents are not included in our earnings per share calculations. The number of potentially dilutive common stock equivalents that have been excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share for the year ended December 31, 2009 and for the period from inception, December 1, 2008, through December 31, 2008, were 11,016,000 and -0-, respectively. The Company had no potentially dilutive common stock equivalents at December 31, 2008 and an analysis of the potentially dilutive common stock equivalents at December 31, 2009 is as follows:

Revenue and Expenses
The Company is in the development stage and has no revenues or cost of sales. Selling expenses consist primarily of sales commissions, salaries of sales managers, travel and entertainment expenses, and trade show expenses. General and administrative expenses consist primarily of executive and administrative compensation and benefits, office rent, utilities, communication and technology expenses, and professional fees.
Income Taxes
We use the liability method of accounting for income taxes. Under this method, we record deferred income taxes based on temporary differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities and use enacted tax rates and laws that we expect will be in effect when we recover those assets or settle those liabilities, as the case may be, to measure those taxes. We record a valuation allowance to reduce the deferred tax assets to the amount that is more likely than not to be realized.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The carrying amounts of financial instruments including cash and cash equivalents, receivables, and payables approximated fair value because of the relatively short maturity of these instruments. The carrying values of other financial instruments approximate their respective fair values.

Share-Based Payment Arrangements
Compensation expense for all share-based payment awards, including employee stock options, is measured and recognized based on estimated fair values. The value of the portion of the award that is ultimately expected to vest is recognized as expense on a straight-line basis over the requisite service periods, if any.
The fair value of stock option awards is estimated on the date of grant using an option-pricing model. The Company uses the Black-Scholes option-pricing model (Black-Scholes Model) as its method of valuation for share-based awards. The determination of fair value of share-based payment awards on the date of grant using an option-pricing model is affected by the Company's stock price, as well as assumptions regarding a number of subjective variables. These variables include, but are not limited to, expected stock price volatility over the term of the awards, as well as actual and projected exercise and forfeiture activity.
The Company follows the guidance of the Codification as described in ASC 505-50 Equity Based Payments to Non-Employees for transactions in which equity instruments are issued in exchange for the receipt of goods or services to non-employees. The Company accounts for the issuance of equity instruments to acquire goods and services based on the fair value of the goods and services or the fair value of the equity instrument at the time of issuance, whichever is more reliably measurable.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In August 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued authoritative guidance, which provides additional guidance on measuring the fair value of liabilities. This guidance reaffirms that the fair value measurement of a liability assumes the transfer of a liability to a market participant as of the measurement date. This guidance became effective October 1, 2009. This guidance did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
In June 2009, the FASB issued authoritative guidance on consolidation of variable interest entities (VIEs) that changes how a reporting entity determines a primary beneficiary that would consolidate the VIE from a quantitative risk and rewards approach to a qualitative approach based on which variable interest holder has the power to direct the economic performance related activities of the VIE as well as the obligation to absorb losses or right to receive benefits that could potentially be significant to the VIE. This guidance requires the primary beneficiary assessment to be performed on an ongoing basis and also requires enhanced disclosures that will provide more transparency about a companys involvement in a VIE. This guidance is effective for a reporting entitys first annual reporting period that begins after November 15, 2009. The adoption of this guidance is not expected to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
In May 2009, the FASB issued guidance under the Subsequent Events topic of the Codification which requires entities to disclose the date through which they have evaluated subsequent events and whether the date corresponds with the release of their financial statements. This guidance was effective for all interim and annual periods ending after June 15, 2009. In February 2010, the FASB issued updated guidance which stated that SEC filers must still evaluate subsequent events through the issuance date of their financial statements, however, they are not required to disclose that date in their financial statements. We adopted this guidance for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009 and it did not have an impact on our consolidated financial statements.
In April 2009, the FASB issued authoritative guidance related to interim disclosures about fair value of financial instruments. The guidance requires an entity to provide disclosures about fair value of financial instruments in interim financial information. This guidance is to be applied prospectively and is effective for interim and annual periods ending after June 15, 2009. There was no impact on our consolidated financial statements, as the guidance relates only to additional disclosures.
In April 2009, the FASB issued authoritative guidance related to accounting for assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination that arise from contingencies. This guidance requires that assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination that arise from contingencies be recognized at fair value, if fair value can be reasonably estimated. If fair value cannot be reasonably estimated, the asset or liability would generally be recognized in accordance with existing
F-12
HUNT GLOBAL RESOURCES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY
(A DEVELOPMENT STAGE COMPANY)
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICES, CONTINUED
authoritative guidance related to accounting for contingencies and reasonable estimation of the amount of a loss. The guidance also eliminates the requirement to disclose an estimate of the range of possible outcomes of recognized contingencies at the acquisition date. For unrecognized contingencies, the FASB requires that entities include only the disclosures required by the authoritative guidance on accounting for contingencies. This guidance was adopted effective January 1, 2009. There was no impact on our consolidated financial statements upon adoption, and its effects on future periods will depend on the nature and significance of business combinations subject to this guidance.
In December 2007, the FASB issued authoritative guidance related to business combinations that establishes principles and requirements for how an acquirer recognizes and measures in its financial statements the identifiable assets acquired, the liabilities assumed, any non-controlling interest in the entity acquired and the goodwill acquired. This guidance also establishes disclosure requirements which will enable users to evaluate the nature and financial effects of the business combination and was effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
In September 2006, the FASB issued authoritative guidance on fair value measurements and disclosures. This guidance defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in accordance with GAAP, and expands disclosures about fair value measurement. The initial application of this guidance was limited to financial assets and liabilities and became effective on January 1, 2008. The impact of the initial application on our consolidated financial statements was not material. In February 2008, the FASB revised the authoritative guidance on fair value measurements and disclosures to delay the effective date of the guidance for nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities, except for items that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a recurring basis, to fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008. We elected to defer the adoption of this guidance for nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities until January 1, 2009. Adoption of this guidance on January 1, 2009 did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
3. GOING CONCERN CONSIDERATIONS
Hunt has incurred significant losses from operations since inception, has limited financial resources and a significant deficit in working capital at December 31, 2009. These factors raise substantial doubt about Hunts ability to continue as a going concern. Hunts financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2009 have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company currently has an accumulated deficit of $11,722,883 through December 31, 2009. Hunts ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to develop additional sources of capital and, ultimately, achieve profitable operations. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of these uncertainties.
4. ACQUISITIONS AND DIVESTITURES
Mining Property
On December 1, 2008, the Company entered into the Hunt Land and Mineral Lease Agreement (the Mining Agreement) and secured the surface mining rights to 350 acres of land in northwest Houston which contains high-grade sand and gravel reserves. The majority owners of the land are Jewel and Lisa Hunt (44.45%), officers and directors of the Company, and Mallie Hunt Adams (44.45%).
In exchange for the mining rights, the Company issued to the owners of the land 91,000,000 shares of common stock as founders shares valued at $91,000 (see Note 7 below). In addition, the Company assumed debt on the mining property and related accrued interest in the amount of $3,605,177. Per the terms of the Mining Agreement, the Company will pay the land owners a royalty of 10% of the sold price of all products mined, processed, removed or manufactured and sold from the mining site. The term of the lease is twenty years and expires on December 31, 2028 unless extended in writing by the parties to the lease. The Company is responsible for the maintenance of the property and all property taxes during the term of the lease.
Management estimates that the land under the Mining Agreement has reserves of sand and gravel that are expected to provide production for 18 years.

Reserve Oil Technologies, LLC
On February 27, 2009, the Company (along with four individual investors) formed Reserve Oil Technologies, LLC (the LLC). Under their agreement, the four investors agreed to provide a maximum of $1,000,000 in financing to the venture (including $250,000 previously loaned to the Company) to purchase certain oil and gas leases in Bastrop County, Texas containing at least 70 previously drilled wells. The original ownership of this LLC was to be 25% to Hunt, 10% to the managing individual investor, and 65% to the four individual investors as a group.
On March 1, 2009, the Company issued promissory notes to the four investors totaling $1,000,000 as guaranty for their maximum investment, including the conversion of the $250,000 in previous notes, and the four investors were issued a total of 950,000 shares of Hunt preferred stock along with a 950,000 warrants to purchase common stock during the ensuing 4 years for $1.00 per share as a financing premium (see Note 7).
On December 15, 2009, the Company entered into agreements with the four investors to acquire the investors entire interest in the LLC and retire the outstanding $1,000,000 in notes payable with accrued interest to the four investors for the issuance of 2,052,000 shares of Hunt preferred stock along with a 2,052,000 warrants to purchase common stock during the ensuing 4 years for $1.00 per share (see Note 7).
On December 22, 2009, the Company entered into a sales agreement for all oil and gas leases owned by the LLC for a sales price of $1,100,000 less offsets for vendor liens, prospective vendor liens and defective leases. The transaction funded during the first quarter of 2010 with net proceeds received by Hunt of $536,265. The Company recorded a corresponding loss on investment of $1,167,515 in December 2009 to write down our investment in the LLC to its fair market value.
Momentum Biofuels, Inc.
On August 21, 2009, the Company entered into an Agreement with Momentum Biofuels, Inc. (Momentum), under which the Company agreed to acquire certain assets and assume certain liabilities, obligations and commitments of Momentum as shown in the analysis below. The assets received by the Company were Momentum's physical assets, including the biodiesel plant located in Pasadena, Texas, and all intellectual property, processes, techniques and formulas for creating biofuels and related products.
The Company also entered into a License Agreement with Momentum, which grants the Company the right to use, improve, sublicense and commercialize the intellectual property described in the Agreement, in exchange for a 3% royalty on the gross and collected revenue received by the Company from the sale of bio-diesel and related products and from revenues received by the Company from its proposed commercial sand business. Momentum assigned its royalty rights to its parent, (Momentum-Colorado) in exchange for 40,000,000 common shares of Momentum-Colorado, which was equal to approximately 39% of the issued and outstanding stock at the date of the License Agreement. The 40,000,000 shares are subject to a non dilution agreement.
On October 9, 2009, the Momentum transaction was consummated and on December 31, 2009, the Company received the 40,000,000 shares of common stock of Momentum described in the previous paragraph and transferred 10,000,000 shares to Crown Financial, LLC (see Note 10 below for further details).

Common Stock
On December 1, 2008, the Company authorized the issuance of 91,000,000 shares of common stock to the three property owners of the sand and gravel mining land that forms the basis of the Company's Mining lease (See Note 4). In addition, the Company also authorized the issuance of an additional 4,953,200 shares of common stock to various creditors who had previously loaned money to the property owners to help preserve ownership of the mining property in periods prior to December 1, 2008. The value of these shares issued to the property owners was recorded at the $91,000 par value of the stock because that value approximates the owners historic cost in the property under lease. The Shares issued to various creditors were valued at $0.1377 per share and charged to interest expense (totaling $682,056) based on a valuation of the Company at June 30, 2010 that was adjusted for changes during 2009 and 2010.
The $0.1377 per share valuation of common stock was used in all issuances of common stock for services and interest expense in 2008 and 2009
On May 1, 2009, the Company authorized the issuance of 38,854,000 shares of common stock to various consultants for services performed for the Company. These shares were valued based at their estimated fair value of $0.1377 per share (totaling $5,350,195) as described above.
On June 10, 2009, the company issued 50,000 shares of common stock to various note holders in lieu of interest payments. These shares were valued based at their estimated fair value of $0.1377 per share (totaling $6,885).

These preferred shares were valued at $1 per share because they include essentially the same rights as the preferred shares issued for cash as described above; however, the detachable warrants are for a term of 4 years.
In August 2009, the Company issued 200,000 shares of its Series A Convertible Preferred Stock as a fee to facilitate the assumption of debt agreements with a group of investors, arranged by Bathgate Partners, who had provided debt financing to Momentum. These debt agreements were assumed by the Company in the Momentum transaction (See Note 4 above). These preferred shares were valued at $1.00 per share because they include the same rights as the preferred shares issued for cash as described above.
In December 2009, the Company issued 2,052,000 shares of its Series A Convertible Preferred Stock to four individual note holders in settlement of their notes payable by the Company. These preferred shares were valued at $1.00 per share because they include essentially the same rights as the preferred shares issued for cash as described above; however, the detachable warrants are for a term of 4 years.
Warrants
In conjunction with the sales and other issuance of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock described above, during 2009 the Company issued warrants to purchase a total of 5,508,000 shares of common stock at $1.00 per share.

8. INCOME TAXES
There is no current or deferred tax expense for the year ended December 31, 2009 or for the period from December 1, 2008 to December 31, 2008, due to the Companys loss position. The deferred tax consequences of temporary differences in reporting items for financial statement and income tax purposes are recognized, as appropriate. Realization of the future tax benefits related to the deferred tax assets is dependent on many factors, including the Companys ability to generate taxable income. Management has considered these factors in reaching its conclusion as to the valuation allowance for financial reporting purposes and has recorded a full valuation allowance against the deferred tax asset.
The income tax effect of temporary differences comprising deferred tax assets and liabilities are summarized as follows:

12. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
Tombstone Transaction
On January 19, 2010, Tombstone Technologies, Inc., a Colorado corporation ("Tombstone") and its wholly owned subsidiary Hunt Acquisition Corp (Merger Sub) entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the Merger Agreement) with the Company.
The Merger Agreement and the proposed acquisition described therein (the Acquisition) has been under negotiation and is expected, by management, to close at the end of October 2010. At the closing, the Company's stockholders are expected to exchange 91% of its outstanding shares for Tombstone stock and the Company is expected to be merged into Merger Sub, with the Company as the surviving entity. The Company anticipates that the remaining 9% of stockholders will exchange their shares or exercise dissenters rights within three days of closing. The proposed transaction will be structured as a reverse merger whereby the shareholders of the Company will be issued shares of Tombstones Common and Preferred Stock that will result in ownership of approximately 93.5% of the issued and outstanding Common stock of Tombstone on a fully diluted basis. As a result, the Company's stockholders and management are expected to own a controlling interest in the combined company.
The proposed transaction will require the issuance of Tombstone shares as follows:
·
29,000,000 shares of restricted Common Stock of Tombstone to the holders of the Company's Common and Preferred Stock;
F-23
HUNT GLOBAL RESOURCES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY
(A DEVELOPMENT STAGE COMPANY)
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
12. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS, CONTINUED
·
125,000 shares of Class A Convertible Preferred Stock of Tombstone to certain holders of the Company's Common Stock (having a conversion ratio of one share of Preferred Stock to 208 shares of Common Stock of Tombstone);
·
125,000 shares of a new series of Class B Preferred Convertible Stock of Tombstone to the "Controlling Stockholders" of Hunt Common Stock (having a conversion ratio of one share of Preferred Stock to 248 shares of Common Stock of Tombstone and having a quarterly dividend of $0.56 per share); and
·
A reserve for issuance of an additional 10,125,999 additional shares of Tombstone Common Stock for the exercise of Tombstone stock options for 1,689,999 shares of Tombstone Common Stock that have been extended for two years and the exercise of Hunt warrants for 8,436,000 shares of Hunt Common Stock.
The holders of 7,436,000 shares of Hunt Preferred Stock and warrants to purchase 8,436,000 shares of Hunt Common Stock will be converted into restricted Tombstone Common Stock and Warrants on a one for one basis. The Controlling Stockholders of Hunt (Jewel and Lisa Hunt and George Sharp via Crown Financial) will convert a substantial portion of their Hunt Common Stock into Tombstone Class B Preferred Stock and will be required to hold such shares for two years unless the Tombstone Common Stock achieves a $7.00 trading price for 10 consecutive trading days. The remaining shares of outstanding Hunt Common Stock were converted into a combination of Tombstone Common Stock and Class A Preferred Stock on a pro rata basis. The holders of Tombstone Class A Preferred Stock will be required to hold such shares for one year unless the Tombstone Common Stock achieves a $3.00 trading price for 10 consecutive trading days.
As result of the transaction discussed above, the business of Tombstone will change from the development of online printing software to a producer of aggregates, including sand and gravel.
Sale of Reserve Oil Technologies, LLC Investment
During the first quarter of 2010, the Company sold its investment in Reserve Oil Technologies, LLC to a group of investors for $536,265 (see Note 4 above for further information on this investment).
Sale of Common and Preferred Stock
From January 1, 2010 through October 28, 2010, the Company issued 5,796,000 shares of its Common Stock to various individuals for consulting services provided to the Company.
From January 1, 2010 through October 28, 2010, the Company issued 1,728,000 shares of its Series A Convertible Preferred Stock to several accredited investors in conjunction with the Memorandum. Each share of convertible preferred stock was sold for $1.00 per share and also contains one detachable Class A Warrant for the purchase of one share of common stock at an exercise price of $1.00 per share, which must be exercised within 24 months of the date of their issuance.
General
Company management has evaluated the effect of subsequent events on the Company's financial statements through October 28, 2010, the date of financial statement issuance.
F-24
Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
We are a development stage company. We are classified as a smaller reporting company under the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Tombstone Technologies, Inc., a Colorado corporation, ("Tombstone") and its wholly owned subsidiary Hunt Acquisition Corp ("Merger Sub") entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "Merger Agreement") with Hunt Global Resources, Inc., a then privately owned Texas corporation ("Hunt"). The Merger Agreement and the acquisition agreed to therein (the "Acquisition") closed on October 29, 2010. At the closing, Hunt stockholders exchanged 91% their its outstanding shares for Tombstone stock and Hunt was merged into Merger Sub, with Hunt as the surviving entity. The Company anticipates that the remaining 9% of stockholders will exchange their shares or exercise dissenter's rights. The transaction was structured as a reverse merger whereby the shareholders of Hunt were issued Common and Preferred Stock that will result in ownership of approximately 94.6% of the issued and outstanding stock of Tombstone on a fully diluted as-converted basis (after the remaining 9% of its outstanding shares are exchanged). As a result, Hunt stockholders and management own a controlling interest in the combined company.
Effective on the Closing Date, pursuant to the Merger Agreement, Hunt became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Tombstone. The Acquisition of Hunt was treated as a reverse merger acquisition for accounting purposes, and the business of Hunt became the business of Tombstone as a result of the Acquisition. At the time of the Acquisition, Tombstone was a public corporation and only had limited operations over the last three years. Hunt is a Houston area company focused on the production of aggregates, including sand and gravel from a 350 acre site near The Woodlands, Texas leased from Jewel Hunt and Lisa Hunt. Hunt will use new technologies to maximize the value of the extracted commodities. Hunt's business model centers on using new, "green" and more efficient extraction and processing methods. Hunt is committed to environmental responsibility and builds environmental considerations into its business strategies. Reserves are essential to long-term success in the aggregates business. We have estimated that approximately 40 million tons of permitted and proven reserves exist on our site. Assuming adequate capital is available, we believe the mining site will be fully operational by the third quarter of 2011. The Hunt family will receive a royalty of 10% of the gross revenues derived from the aggregates extracted from the leased property. During the past four years, Hunt has spent approximately $4 million to ready the property for the proposed sand and gravel plant. We expect to complete the entire mining operation by the year 2027.
Our accumulated loss since inception is $11,722,883. We have not generated any revenue from operations since inception. We anticipate that the execution of our business plan will result in an expansion of our operations, which may place a significant strain on our management, financial resources and other resources. If we fail to manage these issues, we may not be profitable in
the near future, or ever.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
We estimate that we will require approximately $10 million to carry out our business plan and meet our expenses for the next 12 months. Additional funding that might be arranged through the issuance of our equity securities will result in dilution in the value per share of currently outstanding equity securities.

PROPOSAL 5
RATIFICATION OF THE APPOINTMENT OF HAM, LANGSTON & BREZINA LLP AS THE COMPANYS INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM FOR THE FISCAL YEARS ENDING DECEMBER 31, 2010 AND 2011.

The decision to dismiss C&H was made in connection with our acquisition of Hunt Global Resources, Inc. C&H served as our independent registered public accounting firm to audit the financial statements for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008. With the exception of an expressed uncertainty regarding our possible continuation as a going concern, the reports of C&H for the past two years did not contain an adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, nor were they modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principles.
During the fiscal years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008 and subsequently to November 3, 2010, there were no disagreements with C&H on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure that, if not resolved to C&H's satisfaction, would have caused them to make reference to the subject matter in connection with their reports on the Company's consolidated financial statement for such years, and there were no reportable events, as listed in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K. We did not consult with C&H on any issues.
The Company has provided C&H with a copy of the foregoing disclosures and requested in writing that C&H furnish the Company with a letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether or not they agree with such disclosures. C&H has provided the letter stating its agreement with our statements herein.
Ham Langston & Brezina, LLP (HLB) was the independent registered public accounting firm of Hunt. In connection with our acquisition of Hunt, we appointed HLB as the successor independent registered public accounting firm on November 4, 2010.
Prior to such appointment, Hunt consulted with HLB with respect to the application of accounting principles to specified transactions, either completed or proposed only in HLBs position as auditors in an auditor/client relationship and there were no disagreements with HLB with respect to the accounting principles applied to specified transactions by Hunt. Prior to their appointment as auditors, we did not consult HLB regarding the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Company's consolidated financial statements, or any other matter or reportable events listed in Items 304(a)(2)(i) and (ii) of Regulation S-K.
The Company has provided HLB with a copy of the foregoing disclosures and requested in writing that HLB furnish the Company with a letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether or not they agree with such disclosures. HLB has provided a letter stating its agreement with our statements herein.
