The Registrant plans to file the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the three months ended March 31, 2012 on or before May 21, 2012, in compliance with Rule 12b-25.

If so: attach an explanation of the anticipated change, both narratively and quantitatively, and, if appropriate, state the reasons why a reasonable estimate of the results cannot be made.

Unaudited Preliminary Results of Operations

The following results of operations are preliminary and have not been reviewed by the Registrant’s independent auditors. The Registrant’s final, reviewed results of operations could be materially different from the unaudited preliminary results of operations set forth below.

The Registrant anticipates reporting net revenues of approximately $194,999 for the first quarter of 2012 as compared to net revenues of $115,786 for the first quarter of 2011.  The anticipated increase in net revenues was a result of increased sales of its new products, including increased sales of its drive systems, battery systems and charging systems that it developed during 2011. Sales of the new technologies developed by the Registrant in 2011 resulted in an $116,112 in sales of electric drive systems during the first quarter of 2012 as compared to no sales of drive systems during the first quarter of 2011.

The Registrant anticipates reporting a gross profit of approximately $87,832 for the first quarter of 2012 as compared to gross profit of $48,873 for the first quarter of 2011.  The Registrant anticipates reporting that its gross profit margin was 55% for first quarter of 2012 as compared to a gross profit margin of 58% for the first quarter of 2011. The anticipated decrease in gross margin is primarily due the higher margins on the consulting services that the Registrant performed during the first quarter of 2011 as compared to lower profit margins on the vehicles and battery systems sold during the first quarter of 2012.

The Registrant anticipates that it will report a net loss for the first quarter of 2012. The Registrant is unable at the present time to estimate the net loss that will be reported for the first quarter of 2012, as it has not completed the final accounting of the derivative liability as of March 31, 2012 and change in derivative liability for the first quarter of 2012.
