PART I

ITEM 1. BUSINESS

Endeavor Acquisition Corp. is a blank check company formed on July 22, 2005 to effect a merger,
capital stock exchange, asset acquisition or other similar business combination with an operating business. The Companys efforts in identifying a prospective target business will not be limited to a particular industry although it intends to
initially focus on businesses in the business services, marketing services, consumer services, health care services and distribution services segments.

On December 21, 2005, we closed our initial public offering of 15,000,000 units with each unit consisting of one share of our common stock and one warrant, each to purchase one share of our common stock at an
exercise price of $6.00 per share. On January 5, 2006, we consummated the closing of an additional 1,160,745 units which were subject to the over-allotment option. The units from the initial public offering (including the over-allotment option)
were sold at an offering price of $8.00 per unit, generating total gross proceeds of $129,285,960. After deducting the underwriting discounts and commissions and the offering expenses, the total net proceeds to us from the offering (including the
over-allotment option) were $122,346,980, of which $121,030,234 was deposited into the trust account and the remaining proceeds of $1,316,746 became available to be used to provide for business, legal and accounting due diligence on prospective
business combinations and continuing general and administrative expenses. Through December 31, 2005, we have used $147,525 of the net proceeds that were not deposited into the trust fund to pay general and administrative expenses. The net
proceeds deposited into the trust fund remain on deposit in the trust fund earning interest. As of December 31, 2005, there was $112,308,199 held in the trust fund.

For further details regarding our business, see the section entitled Proposed Business contained in our prospectus dated December 15, 2005 incorporated by reference herein.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

For the risks relating to
our operations, see the section entitled Risk Factors contained in our prospectus dated December 15, 2005 incorporated by reference herein.

ITEM 1B. UNRESOLVED STAFF COMMENTS

None

ITEM 2. PROPERTY

We maintain our executive
offices at 180 Madison Avenue, Suite 2305, New York, New York pursuant to an agreement with Ironbound Partners Fund LLC (Ironbound Partners), an affiliate of Jonathan J. Ledecky, our president, secretary and a member of our board of
directors. We pay Ironbound Partners a monthly fee of $7,500 which is for general and administrative services including office space, utilities and secretarial support. We believe, based on rents and fees for similar services in the New York City
metropolitan area, that the fee charged by Ironbound Partners is at least as favorable as we could have obtained from an unaffiliated person. We consider our current office space adequate for our current operations.

ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

None.

ITEM 4. SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS

As of March 29, 2006, there was one holder of record of our units, eight holders of record of our common stock and one holder of record of our

requirements and general financial condition subsequent to completion of a business combination. The payment of any dividends subsequent to a business combination will be within the discretion of our then board of directors. It is the present
intention of our board of directors to retain all earnings, if any, for use in our business operations and, accordingly, our board does not anticipate declaring any dividends in the foreseeable future.

Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities and Use of Proceeds

In July 2005, we sold the following shares of common stock without registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended:



|                    |  |                 
|------------------- |  | ----------------
|Stockholders        |  | Number of Shares
|Tower Trust         |  | 3,045,000       
|Jonathan J. Ledecky |  | 3,045,000       
|Jay H. Nussbaum     |  | 40,000          
|Kerry Kennedy       |  | 40,000          
|Robert B. Hersov    |  | 40,000          
|Edward J. Mathias   |  | 40,000          

Such shares were issued in connection with our organization pursuant to the exemption from registration contained
in Section 4(2) of the Securities Act as they were sold to sophisticated, wealthy individuals or entities. The shares issued to the individuals and entities above were sold at a purchase price of approximately $0.004 per share. In November
2005, each of Mr. Ledecky and Tower Trust transferred 20,000 shares of common stock to Richard Y. Roberts, a director of ours, for $0.004 per share (for an aggregate purchase price of $160). Additionally, in November 2005, Mr. Ledecky and
Tower Trust contributed to us a total of 2,500,000 shares of common stock, effectively increasing the average purchase price to $0.0067 per share.

Initial Public Offering

On December 21, 2005, we closed our initial public offering of 15,000,000 units with each unit
consisting of one share of our common stock and one warrant, each to purchase one share of our common stock at an exercise price of $6.00 per share. On January 5, 2006, we consummated the closing of an additional 1,160,745 units which were
subject to the over-allotment option. The units from the initial public offering (including the over-allotment option) were sold at an offering price of $8.00 per unit, generating total gross proceeds of $129,285,960. Ladenburg Thalmann &
Co. Inc. acted as lead manager for the initial public offering and Broadband Capital Management LLC acted as co-manager for the initial public offering. The securities sold in the offering were registered under the Securities Act of 1933 on a
registration statement on Form S-1 (No. 333-128440). The Securities and Exchange Commission declared the registration statement effective on December 21, 2005.

We paid a total of $6,205,726 in underwriting discounts and commissions and $733,254 for other costs and expenses related to the offering and the over-allotment option. After deducting the underwriting discounts and
commissions and the offering expenses, the total net proceeds to us from the offering were $122,346,980, of which $121,030,234 was deposited into the trust account and the remaining proceeds of $1,316,746 became available to be used to provide for
business, legal and accounting due diligence on prospective business combinations and continuing general and administrative expenses. The net proceeds deposited into the trust fund remain on deposit in the trust fund and have earned $118,199 in
interest through December 31, 2005.

ITEM 6. SELECTED FINANCIAL DATA

For relevant financial data information, see the section entitled Summary Financial Data contained in our prospectus dated December 15,
2005 incorporated by reference herein.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

We were formed on July 22, 2005 to serve as a vehicle to effect a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition or other
similar business combination with an operating business. We intend to utilize cash derived from the proceeds of our recently completed public offering, our capital stock, debt or a combination of cash, capital stock and debt, in effecting a business
combination.

---

We consummated our initial public offering on December 21, 2005. All activity from July 22,
2005 through December 21, 2005 related to our formation and our initial public offering. Since December 21, 2005, we have been searching for prospective target businesses to acquire.

We had a net income of $54,315 for the fiscal period July 22, 2005 (inception) to December 31, 2005.

In connection with our initial public offering, we issued an option, for $100, to Ladenburg Thalmann to purchase 350,000 units at an exercise price of
$10.00 per unit, with each unit consisting of one share of common stock and one warrant. We accounted for the fair value of the option, inclusive of the receipt of the $100 cash payment, as an expense of the public offering resulting in a charge
directly to stockholders equity. We estimated that the fair value of this option was approximately $703,500 ($2.01 per unit) using a Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The fair value of the option granted to Ladenburg Thalmann was estimated
as of the date of grant using the following assumptions: (1) expected volatility of 52.7%, (2) risk-free interest rate of 4.43%, (3) expected life of two years and 30 days and (4) dividend rate of zero. The option may be
exercised for cash or on a cashless basis, at the holders option, such that the holder may use the appreciated value of the option (the difference between the exercise prices of the option and the underlying warrants and the market
price of the units and underlying securities) to exercise the option without the payment of any cash.

For further details regarding our
plan of operations, see the section entitled Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in our prospectus dated December 15, 2005 incorporated by reference herein.

ITEM 9A. CONTROL AND PROCEDURES

Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be
disclosed in company reports filed or submitted under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the Exchange Act) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange
Commissions rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information



5



---

required to be disclosed in company reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, including our chief
executive officer and treasurer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

As required by Rules 13a-15
and 15d-15 under the Exchange Act, our president and treasurer carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of December 31, 2005. Based upon their evaluation, they
concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

Our internal control over financial reporting is a process designed
by, or under the supervision of, our president and treasurer and effected by our board of directors, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of our financial reporting and the preparation of our
financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (United States). Internal control over financial reporting includes policies and procedures that pertain to the maintenance of records that in
reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of our assets; provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of our financial statements in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles (United States), and that our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with the authorization of our board of directors and management; and provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely
detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on our financial statements.

During the most recently completed fiscal quarter, there has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial
reporting.

Limitations on the effectiveness of controls

A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Because of the inherent limitations in all control
systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within a company have been detected. Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance of
achieving its objectives. Our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective at that reasonable assurance level.

ITEM 9B. OTHER INFORMATION

|Richard Y. Roberts  |  | 54  |  | Director                           

Eric J. Watsonhas been our chairman of the board and treasurer since our inception.
Mr. Watson has been the chairman of and controls Cullen Investments Limited, a private investment company which he founded in January 1995. Cullen Investments Limited now has interests in approximately 20 companies in various industries
including retail, manufacturing, consumer finance, healthcare and real estate. Cullen Investments holds an 81% ownership interest in PRG Group, a publicly listed company in New Zealand that operates several consumer focused companies,
including Powerhouse, a significant specialty appliance retail chain in the United Kingdom, and Bendon, an international manufacturer and retailer of womens lingerie. Another major investment of Mr. Watsons is control of 50% of the
Hanover Group, one of the largest privately owned financial service firms in New Zealand. Prior to founding Cullen Investments, Mr. Watson was the founding chairman and largest shareholder of Blue Star Group, a retail and distribution group he
founded in January 1992. In 1996, Blue Star Group was sold to U.S. Office Products, a diversified supplier of a broad range of office products and business services to corporate customers. Until August 1999, Mr. Watson continued as executive
chairman of Blue Star Group, a wholly-owned subsidiary of U.S. Office Products after the acquisition. In October 2001, the SEC issued a cease and desist order against Mr. Watson in connection with certain purchases and sales made by
Mr. Watson of shares of McCollam Printers, Ltd., a company U.S. Office Products was seeking to acquire while Mr. Watson was executive chairman of Blue Star Group and acting as chief negotiator for U.S. Office Products. The SEC found
Mr. Watson had violated Section 10(b) of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934 and Rule 10b-5 promulgated thereunder with respect to such purchases and sales by not disclosing his ownership of such shares to U.S. Office Products.
Mr. Watson consented to the SECs order without admitting or denying the findings. Specifically, the SEC found that, before the negotiations began in November 1996, Mr. Watson personally owned McCollam Printers shares but did not
disclose this to U.S. Office Products. The SEC also found that, during the course of the negotiations, Mr. Watson continued to acquire McCollam Printers shares without informing U.S. Office Products. According to the SECs order, in May
1997, Blue Star publicly announced its offer to purchase McCollam Printers in a public tender offer and, after the offer was made, Mr. Watson sold his shares without disclosing the sales to U.S. Office Products. The SEC found that the sale of
shares by Mr. Watson resulted in profits of more than NZ$530,000. Mr. Watson subsequently voluntarily established a fund to return profits from the McCollam Printers trading, and all of the unclaimed surplus from the fund was distributed
to charity. Following the acquisition of Blue Star Group by U.S. Office Products, Mr. Watson served as a director of McCollam Printers from July 1997 to June 1998. Prior to serving with U.S. Office Products, Mr. Watson held several
positions with Xerox Corporation, an office products company, including president of operations for Australasia. Mr. Watson received a diploma of general management from Auckland University.

our inception. Since June 1999, Mr. Ledecky has served as chairman of the Ledecky Foundation, a philanthropic organization which contributes funds to programs for the education of disadvantaged inner city youth in Washington, D.C., New York and
Boston. Since March 1999, Mr. Ledecky has also served as chairman of Ironbound Partners Fund LLC, a private investment management fund. In October 1994, Mr. Ledecky founded U.S. Office Products and served as its chief executive officer
until November 1997 and chairman until June 1998. During his tenure, U.S. Office Products completed over 260 acquisitions, and grew to a Fortune 500 company with over $2.6 billion in revenues. In June 1998, U.S. Office Products completed a
comprehensive restructuring plan whereby four separate entities were spun off to shareholders and U.S. Office Products underwent a leveraged recapitalization. In connection with these transactions, Mr. Ledecky resigned from his position as
chairman of U.S. Office Products and became a director of each of the four spin-off entities. In February 1997, Mr. Ledecky founded Building One Services Corporation (originally Consolidation Capital Corporation), an entity formed to identify
attractive consolidation opportunities which ultimately focused on the facilities management industry. In November 1997, Building One raised $552 million in an initial public offering. Mr. Ledecky served as Building Ones chief executive
officer from November 1997 through February 1999 and as its chairman from inception through its February 2000 merger with Group Maintenance America Corporation. During his tenure with Building One, it completed 46 acquisitions and grew to over $1.5
billion in revenues. From July 1999 to July 2001, Mr. Ledecky was vice chairman of Lincoln Holdings, owners of the Washington sports franchises in the NBA, NHL and WNBA. Since June 1998, Mr. Ledecky has served as a director of School
Specialty, a NASDAQ National Market listed education company that provides products, programs and services that enhance student achievement and development. School Specialty spun out of U.S. Office Products in June 1998. Since 1994, Mr. Ledecky
has been involved with numerous other companies in director positions. Two of these companies, U.S.A. Floral Products Inc. (United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware; filed 4/2/01 and emerged 7/18/02) and UniCapital Corporation
(United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York; filed 12/11/00 and emerged 1/31/02) filed for voluntary bankruptcy in the last five years. Mr. Ledecky was a director of U.S.A. Floral Products from April 1997 to March 2000
and of UniCapital from October 1997 to October 2000. In addition, after resigning from his position as a director and executive officer with U.S. Office Products, it filed for bankruptcy protection (United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of
Delaware; filed 3/5/01 and emerged 12/28/01). In no case was Mr. Ledecky an executive officer of these companies during the two years preceding the bankruptcy filings. Mr. Ledecky was a trustee of George Washington University and served as
commissioner on the National Commission on Entrepreneurship. He is also director of the Washington Educational Television Association. In addition, in 2004, Mr. Ledecky was elected the Chief Marshal of the 2004 Harvard University Commencement,
a singular honor bestowed by his alumni peers for a 25th reunion graduate deemed to have made exceptional contributions to Harvard and the greater society while achieving outstanding professional success. Mr. Ledecky received a B.A. (cum laude)
from Harvard University and a M.B.A from Harvard Business School.

Director
Independence

The American Stock Exchange requires that a majority of our board must be composed of independent directors,
which is defined generally as a person other than an officer or employee of the company or its subsidiaries or any other individual having a relationship, which, in the opinion of the companys board of directors would interfere with the
directors exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director.

Jay H. Nussbaum, Kerry Kennedy,
Robert B. Hersov, Edward J. Mathias and Richard Y. Roberts are our independent directors, constituting a majority of our board. Our independent directors will have regularly scheduled meetings at which only independent directors are present.

Any affiliated transactions will be on terms no less favorable to us than could be obtained from independent parties. Any affiliated
transactions must be approved by a majority of our independent and disinterested directors.

Audit Committee

Effective December 21, 2005, we established an audit committee of the board of directors, which consists of Edward J. Mathias, as chairman, Jay H.
Nussbaum and Richard Y. Roberts, each of whom is an independent director under the American Stock Exchanges listing standards. The audit committees duties, which are specified in our Audit Committee Charter, include, but are not limited
to:



| |  |  | reviewing and discussing with management and the independent auditor the annual audited financial statements, and recommend to the board whether the audited financial statements
should be included in our Form 10-K;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | discussing with management and the independent auditor significant financial reporting issues and judgments made in connection with the preparation of our financial statements;

any significant deficiencies in the design or operation of internal controls or material weaknesses therein and any fraud involving management or other employees who have a significant role in our internal controls;

Financial Experts on Audit Committee

The audit committee will at all times be composed exclusively of independent directors who are financially literate as defined
under the American Stock Exchange listing standards. The American Stock Exchange listing standards define financially literate as being able to read and understand fundamental financial statements, including a companys balance
sheet, income statement and cash flow statement.

In addition, we must certify to the American Stock Exchange that the committee has, and
will continue to have, at least one member who has past employment experience in finance or accounting,



11



---

requisite professional certification in accounting, or other comparable experience or background that results in the individuals financial
sophistication. The board of directors has determined that Edward J. Mathias satisfies the American Stock Exchanges definition of financial sophistication and also qualifies as an audit committee financial expert, as defined under
rules and regulations of the SEC.

Nominating Committee

Effective December 2005, we established a nominating committee of the board of directors, which consists of Kerry Kennedy, as chairman, and Robert B. Hersov, each of whom is an independent director under the American
Stock Exchanges listing standards. The nominating committee is responsible for overseeing the selection of persons to be nominated to serve on our board of directors. The nominating committee considers persons identified by its members,
management, shareholders, investment bankers and others.

Guidelines for Selecting Director Nominees

The guidelines for selecting nominees, which are specified in the Nominating Committee Charter, generally provide that persons to be nominated should be
actively engaged in business endeavors, have an understanding of financial statements, corporate budgeting and capital structure, be familiar with the requirements of a publicly traded company, be familiar with industries relevant to our business
endeavors, be willing to devote significant time to the oversight duties of the board of directors of a public company, and be able to promote a diversity of views based on the persons education, experience and professional employment. The
nominating committee evaluates each individual in the context of the board as a whole, with the objective of recommending a group of persons that can best implement our business plan, perpetuate our business and represent shareholder interests. The
nominating committee may require certain skills or attributes, such as financial or accounting experience, to meet specific board needs that arise from time to time. The nominating committee does not distinguish among nominees recommended by
shareholders and other persons.

Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance

Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 requires our officers, directors and persons who own more than ten percent of a registered class
of our equity securities to file reports of ownership and changes in ownership with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Officers, directors and ten percent stockholders are required by regulation to furnish us with copies of all
Section 16(a) forms they file. Based solely on copies of such forms received or written representations from certain reporting persons that no Form 5s were required for those persons, we believe that, during the fiscal year ended
December 31, 2005, all filing requirements applicable to our officers, directors and greater than ten percent beneficial owners were complied with.

Code of Ethics

In December 2005, our board of directors adopted a code of ethics that applies to our directors,
officers and employees as well as those of our subsidiaries. Requests for copies of our code of ethics should be sent in writing to Endeavor Acquisition Corp., 180 Madison Avenue, Suite 2305, New York, New York 10016.

ITEM 11. EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

No executive officer has received any cash compensation for services rendered to us. Commencing on December 15, 2005 through the acquisition of a target business, we will pay Ironbound Partners, an affiliate of
Jonathan J. Ledecky, a fee of $7,500 per month for providing us with office space and certain office and secretarial services. However, this arrangement is solely for our benefit and is not intended to provide Mr. Ledecky compensation in lieu
of a salary. Other than the $7,500 per month administrative fee, no compensation of any kind, including finders, consulting or other similar fees, will be paid to any of our existing stockholders, including our directors, or any of their respective
affiliates, prior to, or for any services they render in order to effectuate, the consummation of a business combination. However, such individuals will be reimbursed for any out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with activities on our
behalf such as identifying potential target businesses and performing due diligence on suitable business combinations.

Since our
formation, we have not granted any stock options or stock appreciation rights or any awards under long-term incentive plans.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Board of Directors

Endeavor Acquisition Corp.

We have
audited the accompanying balance sheet of Endeavor Acquisition Corp. (a development stage enterprise) (the Company) as of December 31, 2005 and the related statements of operations, changes in stockholders equity and cash
flows for the period July 22, 2005 (inception) to December 31, 2005. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Companys management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our
audit.

We conducted our audit 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 misstatements. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over
financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the
effectiveness of the Companys internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements,
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, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Endeavor Acquisition Corp. as of
December 31, 2005, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the period July 22, 2005 (inception) to December 31, 2005, in conformity with United States generally accepted accounting principles.

Notes to Financial Statements

1. Organization,
Business Operations and Significant Accounting Policies

Endeavor Acquisition Corp. (the Company) was incorporated in Delaware on
July 22, 2005 as a blank check company, whose objective is to acquire an operating business.

All activity from July 22, 2005 (inception) through
December 21, 2005 relates to the Companys formation and initial public offering described below. Activity from December 22, 2005 to December 31, 2005 relates to general and administrative expenses incurred in connection with the
search for a target business. The Company has selected December 31 as its fiscal year-end.

The registration statement for the Companys initial
public offering (Offering) was declared effective December 15, 2005. The Company consummated the Offering on December 21, 2005 and received net proceeds of $113,496,234 (Note 2). The Companys management has broad
discretion with respect to the specific application of the net proceeds of this Offering, although substantially all of the net proceeds of this Offering are intended to be generally applied toward consummating a business combination with an
operating business (Business Combination). Furthermore, there is no assurance that the Company will be able to successfully effect a Business Combination. An amount of $112,190,000 of the net proceeds was deposited and is being held in
an interest-bearing trust account (Trust Account) until the earlier of (i) the consummation of a Business Combination or (ii) liquidation of the Company. As of December 31, 2005, the balance in the Trust Account was
$112,308,199, which includes $118,199 of interest earned. Under the agreement governing the Trust Account, funds will only be invested in United States government securities within the meaning of Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment
Company Act of 1940, having a maturity of 180 days or less, or in money market funds meeting certain conditions under Rule 2a-7 promulgated under the Investment Company Act of 1940. The remaining net proceeds (not held in the Trust Account) may be
used to pay for business, legal and accounting due diligence on prospective acquisitions and continuing general and administrative expenses.

The Company,
after signing a definitive agreement for the acquisition of a target business, will submit such transaction for stockholder approval. In the event that stockholders owning 20% or more of the shares sold in

the Offering vote against the Business Combination and exercise their conversion rights described below, the Business Combination will not be consummated.

All of the Companys stockholders prior to the Offering, including all of the officers and directors of the Company (Initial Stockholders), have
agreed to vote their 3,750,000 founding shares of common stock in accordance with the vote of the majority in interest of all other stockholders of the Company (Public Stockholders) with respect to any Business Combination. After
consummation of a Business Combination, these voting safeguards will no longer be applicable.

With respect to a Business Combination which is approved and
consummated, any Public Stockholder who voted against the Business Combination may demand that the Company convert his shares. The per share conversion price will equal the amount in the Trust Account, calculated as of two business days prior to the
consummation of the proposed Business Combination, divided by the number of shares of common stock held by Public Stockholders at the consummation of the Proposed Offering. Accordingly, Public Stockholders holding 19.99% of the aggregate number of
shares owned by all Public Stockholders may seek conversion of their shares in the event of a Business Combination. Such Public Stockholders are entitled to receive their per share interest in the Trust Account computed without regard to the shares
held by Initial Stockholders. Accordingly, a portion of the net proceeds from the offering (19.99% of the amount held in the Trust Account) amounting to $22,460,921 has been classified as common stock subject to possible conversion in the
accompanying December 31, 2005 balance sheet.

The Companys Certificate of Incorporation provides for mandatory liquidation of the Company in
the event that the Company does not consummate a Business Combination within 18 months from the date of the consummation of the Offering, or 24 months from the consummation of the Offering if certain extension criteria have been satisfied. In the
event of liquidation, it is likely that the per share value of the residual assets remaining available for distribution (including Trust Account assets) will be less than the initial public offering price per share in the Offering due to costs
related to the Offering and since no value would be attributed to the warrants contained in the units sold (Note 2).

Cash

At December 31, 2005, the Company did not have any cash equivalents. The Company has cash balances in banks in excess of the maximum amounts insured by the FDIC.

Investments Held in Trust Account

The Company carries
its investments in tax free money market funds.

Notes to Financial Statements

Income Taxes

Deferred income taxes are provided for the
differences between the bases of assets and liabilities for financial reporting and income tax purposes. A valuation allowance is established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized. Management did not
record the impact of deferred taxes as they were deemed immaterial. The provision for state and local taxes amounted to $49,129 and is included in the accompanying statement of operations.

Earnings per Share

Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing
net income by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is calculated by dividing net income after accretion attributable to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of
shares of common stock and warrants outstanding during the period. The conversion of the outstanding Warrants is contingent upon the occurrence of future events, and therefore, is not includable in the calculation of diluted earnings per share in
accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128, Earnings per Share.

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 at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Recently Issued Pronouncements

Management does not believe that any
recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on the accompanying financial statements.

2. Initial Public Offering

On December 21, 2005, the Company sold 15,000,000 units (Units) in the Offering at $8.00 per
Unit. Each Unit consists of one share of the Companys common stock, $.0001 par value, and one Redeemable Common Stock Purchase Warrant (Warrants). Each Warrant entitles the holder to purchase from the Company one share of common
stock at an exercise price of $6.00 commencing the later of the completion of a Business Combination or December 15, 2006 and expiring on December 14, 2009. The Warrants will be redeemable by the Company, at a price of $.01 per Warrant
upon 30 days notice after the Warrants become exercisable, only in the event that the last sale price of the common stock is at least $11.50 per share for any 20 trading days within a 30 trading day period ending on the third day prior to the
date on which notice of redemption is given. In connection with this Offering, the Company

issued an option, for $100, to Ladenburg Thalmann & Co. Inc., the representative of the underwriters in the Offering (Representative), to
purchase 350,000 Units at an exercise price of $10.00 per Unit. The Company has accounted for the fair value of the option, inclusive of the receipt of the $100 cash payment, as an expense of the public offering resulting in a charge directly to
stockholders equity. The Company estimates that the fair value of this option is approximately $703,500 ($2.01 per Unit) using a Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The fair value of the option granted to the Representative is estimated as of
the date of grant using the following assumptions: (1) expected volatility of 52.7%, (2) risk-free interest rate of 4.43%, (3) expected life of two years and 30 days and (4) dividend rate of zero. The option may be exercised for
cash or on a cashless basis at the holders option, such that the holder may use the appreciated value of the option (the difference between the exercise prices of the option and the underlying Warrants and the market price of the
Units and underlying securities) to exercise the option without the payment of any cash.

3. Notes Payable, Stockholders

In July 2005, the Company issued an aggregate of $225,000 unsecured promissory notes to its executive officers. The notes were non interest-bearing and were paid in full
upon the consummation of the Offering from the net proceeds of the Offering.

4. Commitment

The Company presently occupies office space provided by an affiliate of one of the Companys executive officers. Such affiliate has agreed that, until the
acquisition of a target business by the Company, it will make such office space, as well as certain office and secretarial services, available to the Company, as may be required by the Company from time to time. The Company has agreed to pay such
affiliate $7,500 per month for such services commencing on December 15, 2005, the effective date of the Offering. The statement of operations for the period ended December 31, 2005 includes $2,500 related to this agreement.

Pursuant to letter agreements with the Company and the Representative, the Initial Stockholders have waived their rights to receive distributions with respect to their
founding shares upon the Companys liquidation.

The Companys executive officers have agreed with the Representative that after consummation of
the Offering and during the period beginning once separate trading of the Warrants has commenced and ending on December 31, 2006, they or certain of their affiliates or designees will collectively purchase up to 15,000,000 Warrants in the open
market. The executive officers have committed to place limit orders on these Warrants at a price of $0.80 per Warrant for the first three month period after separate trading of the Warrants commences, at a price of $0.90 per Warrant during the
second three month period after separate trading of the Warrants commences and at a price of $1.00 per Warrant thereafter until December 31, 2006.

Notes to Financial Statements

The Initial Stockholders are entitled to registration rights with respect to their founding shares pursuant to an agreement dated December 15, 2005. The holders
of the majority of these shares are entitled to make up to two demands that the Company register these shares at any time commencing three months prior to the third anniversary of the effective date of the Offering. In addition, the Initial
Stockholders have certain piggy-back registration rights on registration statements filed subsequent to the third anniversary of the effective date of the Offering.

5. Preferred Stock

The Company is authorized to issue 1,000,000 shares of preferred stock with such designations,
voting and other rights and preferences as may be determined from time to time by the Board of Directors.

6. Common Stock

Effective November 21, 2005, two of the Initial Stockholders contributed an aggregate of 2,500,000 shares of common stock, at no cost, to the Company. All references
in the accompanying financial statements to the number of shares of common stock have been retroactively restated to reflect this transaction.

At
December 31, 2005, 15,700,000 shares of common stock were reserved for issuance upon exercise of redeemable warrants and the underwriters unit purchase option.

7. Subsequent Event

On January 4, 2006 the underwriters informed the Company of their desire to exercise the
over-allotment option to the extent of 1,160,745 option units. Gross proceeds amounted to $9,285,960. Underwriting discount amounted to $445,762, yielding net proceeds to the Company of $8,840,234 which was deposited in the Trust Account.
