 PART I
 
 ITEM 1.  BUSINESS
  GENERAL
  
 The following is a summary of some of the information contained in this document.  Unless the context requires otherwise, references in this document to “Two Rivers Water Company,” “Two Rivers,” or the “Company” is to Two Rivers Water Company and its subsidiaries.
  Two Rivers was incorporated in December 2002 in the state of Colorado.  The Company was formerly known as Navidec Financial Services, Inc. until it changed its name on November 19, 2009 to Two Rivers Water Company.  The Company’s operations are centered in Colorado.
 
 Two Rivers maintains a website at www.2riverswater.com, which is not incorporated in and is not a part of this report.
 
 Two Rivers currently operates farming operations along with a water acquisition, development and distribution business in southern Colorado.
 
 On August 17, 2009, HCIC Holdings, LLC (“HCIC”), a Colorado limited liability company, was formed to acquire and operate a water business consisting of ownership of water rights, storage of water and distribution of water (the “Water Business”).  Upon formation, Two Rivers owned 50% of HCIC and a non-related group owned the other 50%.  On September 14, 2010, Two Rivers purchased the 50% interest of the non-related group; therefore, Two Rivers now owns 100% of HCIC, through its 100% owned subsidiary, TRWC, Inc.
 
 On January 5, 2010 the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”) authorized to offer the Company’s restricted common stock at $1.00/share.  The maximum offering was 5,000,000 shares, with no minimum.  This offering was closed on August 31, 2010 and sold 2,900,000 shares, raised $2,400,000 and issued 500,000 shares as a partial payment for land and water shares.
 
 On March 17, 2010, Two Rivers formed Two Rivers Farms, LLC (“Farms”) to acquire and operate agriculture land either as a sole operator or in joint venture with other individuals and companies (the “Farming Business”).  Two Rivers is Farms’ sole member and owner.  Two Rivers intends to hold whatever ownership interest it has in the Farming Business through Farms.  Further, Two Rivers intends to expand the Farming Business through one or more entities holding farming and water assets with Farms being the operator.

 On January 21, 2011, the Company formed Two Rivers Farms F-1, LLC to dedicate 500 acres of farmland and associated water rights to grow feed corn beginning with the 2011 growing season.  In February, 2011, the Company raised $2,000,000 through a convertible debt offering in order to fund the transfer of farming land, Mutual Ditch Company water shares, irrigation, land preparation and farming equipment for the 500 acres.
 
 On March 17, 2010, the Company formed Two Rivers Energy, LLC (“Energy”), a Colorado limited liability company, to potentially produce alternative energy on land owned by the Company, or the Company’s subsidiaries.  Two Rivers is Energy’s sole member and owner.  Two Rivers intends to hold whatever ownership interest it has in energy related business within Two Rivers Energy, LLC.
 
 On June 30, 2010, the Company sold its 100% interest in Legendary Investment Group, LLC (“Legendary”) to its acting broker, a previous employee of Legendary, for a sales price of $9,000 plus the buyer assuming the office lease.
 
 On July 13, 2010, the Company formed Two Rivers Water, LLC, (“Water”) a Colorado limited liability company, to secure additional water rights, rehabilitate water storage structures and to develop one or more special water districts.
 
 Two Rivers has purchased the available outstanding shares of Huerfano-Cucharas Irrigation Company; a Colorado Mutual Ditch Company (the “Mutual Ditch Company”) located in Huerfano and Pueblo counties in the State of Colorado and additional land, which would assist in perfecting water rights and provide additional water resources.  As of December 31, 2010, HCIC had a 91% ownership in the Mutual Ditch Company.
 
 The Mutual Ditch Company owns a large privately held, on-stream reservoir of 41,200 acre feet capacity with associated direct flow and storage rights and a mutual ditch water distribution system that holds easement rights into the Arkansas River.  The Mutual Ditch Company also owns additional, smaller water storage facilities.
 
 
 OUR FARMING BUSINESS
  The Company, through its 100% owned subsidiary Farms operates farms in Pueblo County, Colorado primarily growing U.S. No. 2 yellow corn which is used for animal feed.  The land being farmed is owned by a 100% subsidiary, Two Rivers Farms F-1, LLC (“F-1”).  F-1 has entered into a farming lease (“Farm Lease”) with Farms.  The Farm Lease shall be for a three year growing season, commencing in 2011 and ending in 2013.  The Farm Lease calls for Farms to pay F-1 an annual lease payment of $200 per acre plus an additional 33 1/3% of the gross profits from each annual grain crop.  Gross profits are defined as gross revenue less normal operating expenses, but also include an adjustment for depreciation in favor of Farms on all machinery and equipment including irrigation equipment owned by F-1.  The annual lease payment is due on February 1st of each year and begins on February 1, 2012.
  Farms intends to plant U.S. No. 2 yellow corn on the leased farmland during the term of the lease.  Farms does not store its corn on Farms’ premises.  Farms will ship its corn via truck at the time of harvest and will sell its corn for cash to feedlots located in Rocky Ford and Ordway, Colorado.  Farms purchases Multi-Peril Crop Insurance (“MPCI”) and a Revenue Assurance (“RA”) plan.  MPCI protects against crop yield losses by allowing participating producers to insure a certain percentage of historical crop production.  MPCI protects crops against all natural perils including adverse weather, fire, insects, disease, wildlife, earthquake, volcanic eruption and failure of irrigation water due to unavoidable causes.  RA provides revenue protection against a decline in market prices as well as a shortfall in production.  A loss situation arises when the dollar value of farm production falls below the revenue guarantee.  MPCI and RA are provided by private insurance companies and guaranteed by the United States Department of Agriculture.  Under the terms of the Farm Lease, Farms agrees to file an assignment of the proceeds with the insurance companies providing direct payment to the Company of the MPCI and RA plans in an amount equal to the $200 per acre lease payment.

 Water is scarce on the plains of southern Colorado.  The average annual rainfall during the growing season on the land to be owned by the Company is approximately 8 inches.  A high-yielding corn crop requires about 22 inches of additional water via irrigation.  Therefore, to successfully grow a high-yielding corn crop additional water must be provided by irrigation.  The Company receives 22 inches of average annual irrigation water from the Huerfano River through the Mutual Ditch Company ditch system which diverts water from Huerfano River, a tributary to the Arkansas River.  F-1 has a legal right to receive its average annual diversion of water for irrigation water by virtue of its ownership of 1,248 shares, or approximately a 21% interest in the Huerfano-Cucharas Irrigation Company.  Properly irrigated farmland, when combined with other best farming practices, produces a significantly higher yield than farmland that is not irrigated.  According to the United States Department of Agriculture (“USDA”), the 2010 national average corn yield was 155.8 bushels per acre.  The irrigated farmland owned by the Company is capable of producing 200+ bushels per acre.
  As the Company intends to continue to acquire farming land and water rights, level the fields using Trimble land leveling systems, purchase & install surge irrigation systems and acquire equipment and tools, necessary to farm the acreage as a fully functioning independent farm capable of producing high-yielding grains.
 
 OUR WATER BUSINESS
 
 As the Company expands its Farming Business, water rights are also acquired.  These water rights are first deployed for the Farming Business.  Excess water rights may be acquired and will be used as the market demands.  As part of acquiring water rights, the Company is in the process of purchasing additional water rights and additional land which would assist in perfecting water rights and provide additional water resources.
 
 The Company’s objective is to develop the Mutual Ditch Company’s water resources and enhance water storage capacity through a major dam and structure renovation and improvement project.  The Company’s proposed renovation and improvement project is expected to result in the dam’s storage capacity being restored to the fully permitted 41,200 acre feet.
 
 The Company’s purchase and subsequent development of the Mutual Ditch Company and related properties is referred to as the “Water Project.”  The subsequent development began after the Company acquired a majority interest in the Mutual Ditch Company.  Initial development activities have included engaging an engineering consulting firm to prepare the plans and permits for dam construction and the clearing of the ditch distribution system with the associated ditch improvements.
 
 As part of the Water Project, the Company intends to undertake engineering design, dam construction and ditch repair.  Once the dam and structure renovation and improvement project is completed and the system is fully operational, the Company intends to assemble an additional strategic portfolio of upstream storage and direct flow water rights and to acquire additional properties and reservoirs in the area.  The Company plans to acquire additional upstream water rights and shed superfluous water rights on favorable terms.

On November 19, 2009, with the shareholder approval, the Company changed its parent name from Navidec Financial Services, Inc. to Two Rivers Water Company.  Simultaneously the Company changed the original Two Rivers Water Company’s name to TRWC, Inc. (“TRWC”).
 
 
 HCIC HOLDINGS, LLC

 In coming to the conclusion to consolidate HCIC, the Company researched the authoritative literature as it pertains to the equity method of accounting and joint ventures (ASC 323.10.15).  Other considerations to be examined if there is a VIE relationship which pertains to the Company includes representation on the board of directors; participating in policy-making processes, and the interchange of managerial personnel (ASC 323.10.15-6).  Further, accounting standards require valuing TRB’s contribution in HCIC at fair value.  As of December 31, 2009, the Company estimated the valued of the TRB options to purchase shares in the Mutual Ditch Company to be $2,586,000.
 
 On September 14, 2010, TRWC obtained 100% ownership of HCIC.  The owners of TRB were issued 7,500,000 shares of the Company’s common stock in exchange for 100% of their ownership in HCIC.  This transaction was booked at fair value and substantiated by an independent third party appraisal as of March 2, 2010 and updated as of September 30, 2010.
 
 At March 31, 2010, HCIC owned 71% ownership in the Mutual Ditch Company.  Since the Company consolidated HCIC, the Mutual Ditch Company was also consolidated in the Company’s financials.   After a majority share of the Mutual Ditch Company was acquired, the Company ordered an appraisal of the Ditch Company.
 
 On October 29, 2010, the Company received a formal appraisal of the Mutual Ditch Company as follows:
 
 As of March 2, 2010 (the date HCIC acquired majority interest in the Mutual Ditch Company)
$24,196,000As of September 30, 2010
$26,217,000
 
 The appraisal was performed by a professional engineering firm, an unrelated entity to the Company.   The lead appraiser is a senior principal consultant with the engineering firm and is a Professional Engineer and a Certified General Appraiser in Colorado and Arizona.  The appraisal covered all of the assets owned by the Mutual Ditch Company using a highest and best use as agriculture.   The appraisal approach to value used the sales comparison, cost and income approach.
 
 Upon receiving the appraisal, the Company adjusted its unaudited March 31, 2010, June 30, 2010 and September 30, 2010 balance sheets to reflect the fair value of the Mutual Ditch Company at $24,196,000.   As of December 31, 2010, the Company owned 91% of the Mutual Ditch Company; therefore, 9% of the $24,196,000 valuation, or $2,178,000, is recognized in equity as the non-controlling interest in a subsidiary, less previous loss and negative member equity of $71,000 and its share of income of $4,000, for a total non-controlling interest in subsidiary of $2,111,000.

 NORTHSIGHT, INC. (formerly Navidec Mortgage Holdings, Inc.) – Discontinued Operations
 
 In early 2009 Northsight discontinued its short term bridge lending in an effort to reduce its exposure to credit risk.  No new loans have been granted since early 2009.  As of December 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009, Two Rivers had $227,000 (net of an allowance for impairment of $144,000) in long term bridge loans outstanding.
 
 SOUTHIE DEVELOPMENTS, LLC – Discontinued Operations
 
 Two Rivers formed a Colorado limited liability company, Southie Developments, LLC, (“Southie”) on January 31, 2008, as its sole and managing member.  Southie was organized to develop residential real estate for resale and to own and manage residential real estate acquired via foreclosure of real estate loans owned by Two Rivers.  Once a real estate loan defaults and Two Rivers obtains title to the collateral, Two Rivers transfers the property to Southie for development and management.  As part of the management and development of the properties transferred to it, Southie honored any existing residential leases and in some cases did expend monies for rehabilitation of the property with the expectation of selling the property in a short time period, usually less than one year.  However, if Southie deemed the property to be a good longer term investment, they might hold the property for periods longer than 12 months.  At December 31, 2010, Southie owned properties, as discussed below.
 
 In November 2007, Northsight purchased 56 Thomas Park, South Boston, Massachusetts 02127, a residential property, for $1,200,000 (“Thomas Park Property”).  This property was subsequently transferred to Southie.  The Thomas Park Property is a 6,000 square feet single family residence that Northsight converted into three 2,000 square feet individual condominium single family units.  As of May 19, 2008, Southie acquired a $1,200,000 construction loan with Mt. Washington Cooperative Bank for the development of the Thomas Park Property. The loan was due on October 1, 2010 with monthly interest only payments, at prime plus 2% interest rate and an interest rate floor of 7%.  As of December 31, 2009, the balance owed on the loan was $950,000.   Previously, this loan was due on November 19, 2009, but was extended to October 1, 2010.  As part of the agreement to extend the loan a principal reduction was due and an establishment of a restricted cash account to cover interest payments until June 1, 2010.   The restricted cash account was not established until January 12, 2010 and totaled $46,000.  As of June 30, 2010, the Company had invested $3,231,000 including the bank construction loan of $950,000.  During the three months ended September 30, 2010, the Company completed the sale of all three units for a gross sales price of $2,250,000 and recognized a loss of $110,000 over the previous impairment of $1,297,000.  Additionally, the Company has reserved $25,000 against future warranty repairs, which are for repairs up to 12 months from each unit’s sold date.  The Mt. Washington Cooperative Bank debt was paid in full and the restricted cash account closed.
 
 At December 31, 2010, Northsight had two vacant lots in Virginia with a carrying value of $31,000 (net of $93,000 impairment).
 
 Effective January 1, 2010, Two Rivers transferred 100% of its ownership of Southie to Northsight.
 
 COMPETITION
 
 Water resources in Colorado and most of the Western United States are scarce which make water acquisition strongly competitive.  Most of our competitors have significantly greater financial resources, technical expertise and managerial capabilities than us and, consequently, we will be at a competitive disadvantage in storing and distributing water. Competitors' resources could overwhelm our restricted efforts and cause adverse consequences to our operational performance.

 ITEM 1A.    RISK FACTORS
 
  Risk Factors Related to Forward Looking Statements
  Statements made in this filing may not be historical facts and may be “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.
  The Company and Two Rivers believe that, in making any such statement, their expectations are based on reasonable assumptions; however, any such statement may be influenced by factors that could cause actual outcomes and results to be materially different from those projected.
  When used in this Memorandum or any presentation concerning the Offering, the words "anticipates," "believes," "expects," "intends," "plans," "estimates," and similar expressions, as they relate to the Company, Two Rivers, or the management of either the Company or Two Rivers, are intended to identify such forward looking statements.  Forward-looking statements made in this Memorandum and during any presentation concerning the Offering speak only as of today’s date.  The Company and Two Rivers expressly disclaim any obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise.
 
 Two River’s securities are highly speculative and should be purchased only by persons who can afford to lose their entire investment.  Readers should carefully consider the following risk factors, as well as all other information set forth elsewhere in this annual report, in relation to the shares of its common stock.
 
 Company Risk Factors
 
 Two Rivers can give no assurance of success or profitability to investors.
 
 There is no assurance that the Company will operate profitably. There is no assurance that the Company will generate revenues or profits, or that the market price of its common stock will be increased thereby.  During the year ended December 31, 2010, the Company incurred a net loss of $9,466,000, and during the year ended December 31, 2009, the Company recognized a net loss of $2,925,000.
 
 We may in the future issue more shares which could cause a loss of control by present management and current stockholders and/or dilution to investors.
 
 There may be substantial dilution to our shareholders as a result of future decisions of our Board to issue shares without shareholder approval for cash, services, or acquisitions at prices solely determined by our Board.  Additionally, upon issuance, such shares could represent a majority of the voting power and equity of the Company. The result of such an issuance would be those new stockholders and management would control the Company, and persons unknown could replace management at such time.
  Officers and directors may have conflicts of interest which may not be resolved favorably to the Company.
  Certain conflicts of interest may exist between the Company and our Officers and Directors.  Our Officers and Directors have other business interests to which they devote their attention and may be expected to continue to do so although management time should be devoted to our business.  As a result, conflicts of interest may arise that can be resolved only through exercise of such judgment as is consistent with fiduciary duties to us.  See Directors, Executive Officers, and Control Persons, and Conflicts of Interest.

 Two Rivers has a relatively short operating history, so investors have no way to gauge our long term performance.
  Two Rivers was formed in December 2002, and in 2003 acquired control of Northsight, a mortgage broker.  Northsight and Southie represent a significant portion of Two Rivers’ assets and Two Rivers is in the process of liquidating the majority of Northsight’s assets.  Two Rivers might not be successful in liquidating Northsight’s assets for the value carried on its books.
  The inability to attract and retain qualified employees could significantly harm our business.
  The market for skilled executive officers and employees knowledgeable in agriculture and water rights is highly competitive and historically has experienced a high rate of turnover. Competition for quality officers and employees may lead to increased hiring and retention costs.
  Two Rivers’ officers and directors may have conflicts of interests as to corporate opportunities which Two Rivers may not be able or allowed to participate in.
  Presently there is no requirement contained in our Articles of Incorporation, Bylaws, or minutes which requires officers and directors of our business to disclose to us business opportunities which come to their attention.  Our officers and directors do, however, have a fiduciary duty of loyalty to us to disclose to us any business opportunities which come to their attention, in their capacity as an officer and/or director or otherwise.  Excluded from this duty would be opportunities which the person learns about through his involvement as an officer and director of another company.  Two Rivers has no intention of merging with or acquiring business opportunity from any affiliate or officer or director.  (See Conflicts of Interest.)
  Two Rivers has substantial competitors who have an advantage over the Company in resources and management.
  Most of Two Rivers’ competitors have significantly greater financial resources, technical expertise and managerial capabilities than us and, consequently, Two Rivers will be at a competitive disadvantage in identifying and developing or exploring suitable prospects.  Competitors’ resources could overwhelm Two Rivers’ restricted efforts and cause adverse consequences to Two Rivers’ operational performance.
  Two Rivers has agreed to indemnification of officers and directors as is provided by Colorado Statutes.
  Colorado Statutes provide for the indemnification of our directors, officers, employees, and agents, under certain circumstances, against attorney's fees and other expenses incurred by them in any litigation to which they become a party arising from their association with any activities on our behalf.  Two Rivers will also bear the expenses of such litigation for any of our directors, officers, employees, or agents, upon such person's promise to repay us therefore if it is ultimately determined that any such person shall not have been entitled to indemnification.  This indemnification policy could result in substantial expenditures by us that Two Rivers will be unable to recoup.

   Our directors' liability to us and shareholders is limited.
  Colorado Revised Statutes exclude personal liability of Two Rivers’ directors and our stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty except in certain specified circumstances. Accordingly, Two Rivers will have a much more limited right of action against our directors that otherwise would be the case.  This provision does not affect the liability of any director under federal or applicable state securities laws.
  Two Rivers may depend upon outside advisors, who may not be available on reasonable terms and as needed.
  To supplement the business experience of Two Rivers’ officers and directors, Two Rivers may be required to employ accountants, technical experts, appraisers, attorneys, or other consultants or advisors.  Our Board, without any input from stockholders, will make the selection of any such advisors.  Furthermore, Two Rivers anticipates that such persons will be engaged on an "as needed” basis without a continuing fiduciary or other obligation to us. In the event Two Rivers considers it necessary to hire outside advisors, it may elect to hire persons who are affiliates, if they are able to provide the required services.
  Material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting and disclosure controls and procedures could adversely impact the reliability of our internal control over financial reporting.
   Our management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2010, and this assessment identified material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting. As a result, our management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of December 31, 2010.  Material weaknesses and other control deficiencies in our internal control over financial reporting and disclosure controls and procedures have led to restatements of our consolidated financial statements. Since the identification of the material weaknesses, we have implemented and are continuing to implement various initiatives intended to improve our internal control over financial reporting and disclosure controls and procedures to address these material weaknesses. No assurance can be given that we will be able to successfully implement remediated controls and procedures or that our remediated controls and procedures will be effective in remedying all identified deficiencies in our internal control over financial reporting and disclosure controls and procedures. There also can be no assurances that these material weaknesses will be rectified or that additional material weaknesses in our internal controls will not be identified. The existence of one or more material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting impacts the reliability of our internal control over financial reporting.
  Our success will depend, to a large degree, on the expertise and experience of the members of our management team.
 
 Our success in identifying investment opportunities and pursuing and managing such investments is, to a large degree, dependent upon the expertise and experience of the management team and their ability to attract and retain quality personnel.

   Risk Factors Relating To The Farm and The Water Business
  
 Insufficient funds to develop the Farming Business
  The Company might not have enough funds to expand its Farming Business and the expansion of the Farming Business will be dependent upon raising funds.  Without the expansion of the Farming Business, the Company might not be able to meet its general and administration expenses.  No assurance can be given that any such funds will be available.
 
 The Farming Business requires significant capital expenditures.
  The Farming Business is capital intensive.  On an annual basis, we could spend significant sums of money for additions to, or replacement of, land, land improvements, irrigation and farming equipment.  We must obtain funds for these capital projects from operations or capital raised.  We cannot provide assurance that any sources will be adequate or that the cost of funds will be at levels permitting us to earn a reasonable rate of return.
 
 The Company has little operating history in the Farming Business, so investors have no way to gauge our long term performance.
  Neither the Company nor Two Rivers have experience in the Farming Business in Colorado, Two Rivers to date has farmed approximately 400 acres for only one year; therefore, its business plan should be considered highly speculative.
 
 We have substantial competitors who have an advantage over us in resources and management.
  Most of our competitors have significantly greater financial resources, technical expertise and managerial capabilities than us and, consequently, we will be at a competitive disadvantage in preparing farm land, growing crops, cultivating and selling the crops.  Competitors' resources could overwhelm our restricted efforts and cause adverse consequences to our operational performance.
  Dry weather or droughts may adversely affect the collection of our water and ability to grow crops.
   Water to grow our crops is obtained from surface runoff and stream flows.  In dry years or droughts less water may be available to supply our farming lands and less water may be available for sale/lease, which could substantially impact revenues and cause losses.
 
 The adequacy of our water supplies depends upon a variety of uncontrollable factors.
  An adequate water supply is necessary for our Farming Business to be profitable. Our Farming Business is located where dry-farming is not profitable.  The adequacy of our water supplies varies from year to year depending upon a variety of factors, including:
 
 ·
Rainfall, runoff, flood control and availability of reservoir storage;
 ·
Availability of Huerfano River water;
 ·
The amount of useable water stored in reservoirs and groundwater basins;
 ·
The amount of water used by our customers and others;
 ·
Water quality; and
 ·
Legal limitations on production, diversion, storage, conveyance and use.
 
 Two Rivers Water Company 2010 Annual Report - 10K
 Page 12
 Table of Contents
 
 Population growth and increases in the amount of water used in urban areas have caused increased stress on surface water supplies and groundwater basins.
 
 We obtain our water supply from surface tributaries: the Huerfano and Cucharas Rivers.  Our water supply and storage may be subject to interruption or reduction if there is an interruption or reduction in water supplies available to us.  Our supply and storage business is dependent upon our ability to meet the requirements of the Colorado Water Engineer’s office regarding our water rights priorities.
 
 Water shortages may:
 
 ·
adversely affect our supply mix, for instance, causing increased reliance upon more expensive water sources; or
 ·
adversely affect our operating costs, for instance, by increasing the cost through the purchase or lease of required water.
 
 This business is heavily regulated and, as a result, decisions by regulatory agencies and changes in laws and regulations can significantly affect our Farming Business.
  Regulatory decisions may impact prospective revenues and earnings, affect the timing of the recognition of revenues and expenses, may overturn past decisions used in determining our revenues and expenses and could result in impairment of goodwill. Management continually evaluates the assets, liabilities and revenues subject and provides for allowances and/or reserves as deemed necessary.
 
 Regulatory agencies may also change their rules and policies which may adversely affect our profitability and cash flows.
  We may also be subject to fines or penalties if a regulatory agency determines that we have failed to comply with laws, regulations or orders applicable to our water businesses.
 
 Crop insurance may not be available or not adequate to cover losses.
  Certain crops and certain land locations are either not eligible or eligible at a reduced level, for crop insurance.  We intend to grow crops in areas where full insurance is available, but this cannot be guaranteed.  Further, if an insurance claim is made, the amount of funds received might not be sufficient to cover costs and provide debt service.
 
 Adverse weather conditions, natural disasters, crop disease, pests and other natural conditions can impose significant costs and losses on our business.
 
 Corn, our primary grain product, is vulnerable to adverse weather conditions, including hail storms, high winds, tornados,  early and late snow storms, floods, drought and temperature extremes, which are quite common but difficult to predict. In addition, grains are vulnerable to crop disease and to pests, which may vary in severity and effect, depending on the stage of production at the time of infection or infestation, the type of treatment applied and climatic conditions. Unfavorable growing conditions can reduce both crop size and quality.  These factors can directly impact us by decreasing the quality and yields of crops, increasing our costs and decreasing revenue and gross margins, which may have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

 We operate in areas subject to natural disasters.
  We operate in an area that is prone to floods, droughts and other natural disasters.  While we plan to maintain insurance policies to help reduce our financial exposure, a significant seismic event in southern Colorado, where our operations are concentrated, or other natural disasters in Colorado could adversely impact our ability to deliver labor to the crops, deliver crops to the marketplace, receive water and adversely affect our costs of operations and profitability
 
 Our earnings may be affected, to large extents, by markets for crops.
  We intend to grow “exchange-traded” grains.  The pricing of these grains are quoted in public markets.  These quoted prices can vary widely, thereby directly impacting our revenue. There could be a situation when no public market exists.  In this case, we would have to find a buyer.  If we do not find a buyer, our revenue would be non-existent.
 
 Because growing cycles are highly seasonal, our revenue, cash flows from operations and operating results may fluctuate on a seasonal and quarterly basis.
 
 The farming business is highly seasonal. The seasonal nature of Farms operations results in significant fluctuations in our working capital during the growing and selling cycles. As a result, operating activities during the second and third quarters use significant amounts of cash. In contrast, operating activities for the fourth quarter typically generate cash as we will harvest and sell. We expect to experience, significant variability in net sales, operating cash flows and net income on a quarterly basis.
 
 Our ability to harvest our crop may be compromised by availability of labor and equipment.
  When the crop is ready to harvest, we are dependent on labor and contractors for harvesting.  This labor source might not be when the crop is ready to harvest.   This could delay revenue or decrease revenue of our Farming Business.
 
 We are acquiring assets within the Company within a related party transaction.
  Two Rivers is transferring certain land and water (via its ownership in the Mutual Ditch Company) into the Company.  The transfer is being made at the estimate of the lower of cost or market value.  However, this valuation is not being independently confirmed.
 
 Insufficient funds to develop the infrastructure of the Mutual Ditch Company.
 
 If we are unable to obtain any additional funds through the sale of additional equity, borrowings or government grants we will not be able to operate the water company profitably. No assurance can be given that any such finds will be available or, if available, the cost of obtaining such funds and the resulting effect on our shareholders.
 
 The Water Project requires significant capital expenditures.
 
 The Water Project is capital intensive.  On an annual basis, we could spend significant sums of money for additions to, or replacement of, our property, reservoir and equipment.  We must obtain funds for these capital projects from operations or capital raised.  We cannot provide assurance that any sources will be adequate or that the cost of funds will be at levels permitting us to earn a reasonable rate of return.
 
 The Company has no operating history in the Water Business or the Farming Industry, so investors have no way to gauge our long term performance.
 
 The Company is now focused on farming, storing and distributing water. While certain members of the Company’s Board of Directors have experience in the water business in Colorado, the Company to date has no experience in the water business or in farming and therefore, its business plan should be considered highly speculative.

 We have substantial competitors who have an advantage over us in resources and management.
 
 Most of our competitors have significantly greater financial resources, technical expertise and managerial capabilities than us and, consequently, we will be at a competitive disadvantage in storing and distributing water. Competitors' resources could overwhelm our restricted efforts and cause adverse consequences to our operational performance.
 
 Dry weather or droughts may adversely affect the collection of our water.
 Our water is obtained from surface runoff and stream flows.  In dry years or droughts less water may be available to fill our reservoir structures and be available for sale/lease, which could substantially impact revenues and cause losses.
 
 Our water rights may not yield full flow every year.
 Water rights in the west are subject to the Doctrine of Prior Appropriation, which could jeopardize collection of water in dry years for junior water rights.  Water rights that are senior (the year 1863 at the earliest) have priority over junior years as to use in dry years and junior rights might not get water or as much water as they wish, if senior rights use it all.
 
 This business is heavily regulated and, as a result, decisions by regulatory agencies and changes in laws and regulations can significantly affect our water business.
 
 Regulatory decisions may impact prospective revenues and earnings, affect the timing of the recognition of revenues and expenses, may overturn past decisions used in determining our revenues and expenses and could result in impairment of goodwill. Management continually evaluates the assets, liabilities and revenues subject and provides for allowances and/or reserves as deemed necessary.
 
 Regulatory agencies may also change their rules and policies which may adversely affect our profitability and cash flows.
 
 We may also be subject to fines or penalties if a regulatory agency determines that we have failed to comply with laws, regulations or orders applicable to our water businesses.
 
 We are required to maintain water quality standards and are subject to regulatory and environmental risks.
 
 We must provide water that meets all federal and state regulatory water quality standards.  We face contamination and pollution issues regarding our water supplies.  Improved detection technology, increasingly stringent regulatory requirements, and heightened consumer awareness of water quality issues contribute to an environment of increased focus on water quality.  We cannot assure you that in the future we will be able to reduce the amounts of contaminants in our water to acceptable levels.
 
 Our water supplies are subject to contamination, including contamination from naturally occurring compounds, pollution from man-made sources and intentional sabotage.  We cannot assure you that we will successfully manage these issues, and failure to do so could have a material adverse effect on our future results of operations.  We might not be able to recover the costs associated with these liabilities through our rates and charges or insurance or such recovery may not occur in a timely manner.

 Our earnings may be affected, to large extents, by weather during different seasons.
 
 The demand for water varies by season.  For instance, most water consumption for agriculture usage occurs during the third quarter of each year when weather tends to be hot and dry.  During unusually wet weather, our customers generally use less water.
 
 Our proposed water operations are geographically concentrated in Colorado.
 
 Our operations are concentrated in Southern Colorado.  As a result, our financial results are subject to political, available water supply, labor, utility cost and regulatory risks, economic conditions and other economic risks affecting Colorado.  South Eastern Colorado has been hard hit by the current economic crisis.  Colorado is raising taxes in order to balance the state budget and jobs may be lost to other states which are perceived as having a more business friendly climate, thereby exacerbating the impact of the financial crisis in Colorado.
 
 We operate in areas subject to natural disasters.
 
 We operate in an area that is prone to floods, droughts and other natural disasters.  While we plan to maintain insurance policies to help reduce our financial exposure, a significant seismic event in southern Colorado, where our operations are concentrated, or other natural disasters in Colorado could adversely impact our ability to deliver water and adversely affect our costs of operations and profitability.
 
 We may lose all of our investment, which, depending on the amount of our investment, could have a material impact on our market valuation.
 
 Two Rivers has made a substantial investment in the Water Business.  Our investment in the Water Business will not assure success of the Water Business.  If the Water Business fails, Two Rivers and its shareholders will be adversely impacted.
 
  Risk Factors Related To Our Stock
  
 The regulation of penny stocks by SEC and FINRA may discourage the tradability of our securities.
 
 Two Rivers is classified as a “penny stock” company. Our common stock currently trades on the Pink Sheets and is subject to a Securities and Exchange Commission rule that imposes special sales practice requirements upon broker-dealers who sell such securities to persons other than established customers or accredited investors. For purposes of the rule, the phrase “accredited investors” means, in general terms, institutions with assets in excess of $5,000,000, or individuals having a net worth in excess of $1,000,000 or having an annual income that exceeds $200,000 (or that, when combined with a spouse’s income, exceeds $300,000). For transactions covered by the rule, the broker-dealer must make a special suitability determination for the purchaser and receive the purchaser’s written agreement to the transaction prior to the sale. Effectively, this discourages broker-dealers from executing trades in penny stocks.  Consequently, the rule will affect the ability of purchasers in this offering to sell their securities in any market that might develop therefore because it imposes additional regulatory burdens on penny stock transactions.
 
 In addition, the Securities and Exchange Commission has adopted a number of rules to regulate “penny stocks.”  Such rules include Rules 3a51-1, 15g-1, 15g-2, 15g-3, 15g-4, 15g-5, 15g-6, 15g-7, and 15g-9 under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.  Because Two Rivers’ securities constitute “penny stocks” within the meaning of the rules, the rules would apply to us and our securities.  These rules will further affect the ability of owners of shares to sell our securities in any market that might develop for them because it imposes additional regulatory burdens on penny stock transactions.
 
 Two Rivers Water Company 2010 Annual Report - 10K
 Page 16
 Table of Contents
 
 Shareholders should be aware that, according to Securities and Exchange Commission, the market for penny stocks has suffered in recent years from patterns of fraud and abuse. Such patterns include (i) control of the market for the security by one or a few broker-dealers that are often related to the promoter or issuer; (ii) manipulation of prices through prearranged matching of purchases and sales and false and misleading press releases; (iii) “boiler room” practices involving high-pressure sales tactics and unrealistic price projections by inexperienced sales persons; (iv) excessive and undisclosed bid-ask differentials and markups by selling broker-dealers; and (v) the wholesale dumping of the same securities by promoters and broker-dealers after prices have been manipulated to a desired consequent investor losses. Our management is aware of the abuses that have occurred historically in the penny stock market. Although we do not expect to be in a position to dictate the behavior of the market or of broker-dealers who participate in the market, management will strive within the confines of practical limitations to prevent the described patterns from being established with respect to our securities.
 
 Rule 144 sales of our shares in the future may have a depressive effect on our stock price.
 
 All of the outstanding shares of common stock held by our present officers, directors, and affiliate stockholders are “restricted securities” within the meaning of Rule 144 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. As restricted shares, these shares may be resold only pursuant to an effective Registration Statement or under the requirements of Rule 144 or other applicable exemptions from registration under the Act and as required under applicable state securities laws. Rule 144 provides in essence that a person who has held restricted securities for six months may sell without restriction, except for affiliates, under certain conditions, may sell every three months, in brokerage transactions, a number of shares that does not exceed the greater of 1.0% of a company’s outstanding common stock or the average weekly trading volume during the four calendar weeks prior to the sale. There is no limit on the amount of restricted securities that may be sold by a non-affiliate after the owner has held the restricted securities for a period of six months. A sale under Rule 144 or under any other exemption from the Act, if available, or pursuant to subsequent registration of shares of common stock of present stockholders, may have a depressive effect upon the price of our common stock in any market that may develop.
 
 There may be substantial dilution to our shareholders as a result of future decisions of our Board to issue shares without shareholder approval for cash, services, or acquisitions at prices solely determined by our Board.
 
 Our stock may be thinly traded and as a result shareholders may be unable to sell at or near ask prices or at all if shareholders desire to liquidate shares.
 
 The shares of our common stock are thinly-traded on the OTC Bulletin Board, meaning that the number of persons interested in purchasing our common shares at or near ask prices at any given time may be relatively small. This situation is attributable to a number of factors, including the fact that we are a small company which is relatively unknown to stock analysts, stock brokers, institutional investors and others in the investment community that generate or influence sales volume, and that even if we came to the attention of such persons, they tend to be risk-averse and would be reluctant to follow an early stage company or purchase or recommend the purchase of any of our securities until such time as we became more seasoned and viable. As a consequence, there may be periods of several days or more when trading activity in our securities is minimal or non-existent, as compared to a seasoned issuer which has a large and steady volume of trading activity that will generally support continuous sales without an adverse effect on our securities price.  We cannot give you any assurance that a broader or more active public trading market for our common securities will be sustained. Due to these conditions, we can give investors no assurance that they will be able to sell their shares at or near ask prices or at all if their desire to liquidate their securities of our Company.

 ITEM 3.  LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
 
 Carson Suit
 
 The Company was a co-defendant in a lawsuit filed on April 2, 2008 in Jackson County Circuit Court in Missouri.   The Company loaned money to Lydia Carson (borrower) to purchase a home in Kansas City Missouri.   The plaintiffs claimed they had a superior lien on the property that was in place before the borrower borrowed money from the Company for the purchase. On June 30, 2010, the amount owed by Lydia Carson to the Company was $253,000 (note balance of $315,000 less escrow held of $62,000).  On April 27, 2010 the Company received a judgment granting the Company a first lien position.   The Company is in the process of collecting the judgment.
 
 Morrow Suit
 
 The Company was notified in September 2009, that it was named as a defendant in a lawsuit that alleges either the Company or another third party bank did not have a proper promissory note and deed of trust against a short-term mortgage loan made to a borrower in April, 2008 (“Morrow” loan and suit).   After the Morrow loan was made by the Company, the note was improperly transferred to Jaguar Group, LLC (“Jaguar”).  When the improper transfer was discovered by the Company, the Company requested Jaguar to return all documents to the Company or fund the loan.  On August 4, 2008, Jaguar re-assigned the note and deed of trust back to the Company.  However, Jaguar never returned to the Company the original lending file and documentation.  During the period of time that Jaguar was in possession of the Morrow file, the lawsuit alleges that Jaguar used the Morrow note and deed of trust to obtain money from another third-party bank.
 
 Morrow sold the property representing the security interest via the deed of trust in the note in February 2009.   Closing occurred through a title company with title insurance issued.  At the closing, the Company received $77,000 as payoff on the Morrow note.  Therefore, the other third party bank did not receive any proceeds.   Presently the third party bank is suing the current owner of the property that Morrow sold for payment on the note.  The property owner has filed a complaint in State of Colorado, Adam County District Court naming Northsight and the third party bank as defendants.  The plaintiff seeks either Northsight to pay the third party bank or for the third party bank to release its claim to the property.  If Northsight is not successful in its defense, then its exposure is $77,000 plus potential fees and interest.
 
 The Company believes it properly received the proceeds and is being represented by legal counsel to defend its position.  However, to avoid additional legal fees and potential exposure, the Company is in the process of offering a settlement to the plaintiff.  A contingency exists with respect to this matter with a contingency recorded for the Company’s estimate of the cost of settlement.
 
 There are no other legal actions that name the Company and/or its officers and directors as defendants.

 Dividends
 
 As of the filing of this annual report, we have not paid any cash or stock dividends to shareholders.  There are no restrictions which would limit our ability to pay dividends on common equity or that are likely to do so in the future.  The Colorado Revised Statutes, however, do prohibit us from declaring dividends where, after giving effect to the distribution of the dividend; we would not be able to pay our debts as they become due in the usual course of business; or our total assets would be less than the sum of the total liabilities plus the amount that would be needed to satisfy the rights of shareholders who have preferential rights superior to those receiving the distribution.

 Penny Stock
 
 Penny Stock Regulation Broker-dealer practices in connection with transactions in "penny stocks" are regulated by certain penny stock rules adopted by the Securities and Exchange Commission. Penny stocks generally are equity securities with a price of less than $5.00.  Excluded from the penny stock designation are securities registered on certain national securities exchanges or quoted on NASDAQ, provided that current price and volume information with respect to transactions in such securities is provided by the exchange/system or sold to established customers or accredited investors.
 
 The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from the rules, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document that provides information about penny stocks and the risks in the penny stock market. The broker-dealer also must provide the customer with current bid and offer quotations for the penny stock, the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson in connection with the transaction, and the monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer’s account.  In addition, the penny stock rules generally require that prior to a transaction in a penny stock; the broker-dealer must make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser's written agreement to the transaction.
 
 These disclosure requirements may have the effect of reducing the level of trading activity in the secondary market for a stock that becomes subject to the penny stock rules.  As our securities have become subject to the penny stock rules, investors may find it more difficult to sell their securities.

 ITEM 7.   MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION
 
 The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto and the other financial information included elsewhere in this report.  This discussion contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties.  Our actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward looking statements as a result of any number of factors, including those set forth under Risk Factors and elsewhere in this report.
 
 Plan of Operations - Overview
 
 During 2010, Two Rivers focused its business development activities on expanding its farming and water business.  With funds generated from the liquidation of real estate promissory notes receivable and selling residential real estate, Two Rivers entered into the Farming and Water Business beginning in July 2009 and has dedicated the majority of its resources to expanding the Farming and Water Business.  There can be no assurances that any of our investments will be successful.  (See Risk Factors.)
 
 The Company is in the process of raising additional capital through debt and equity offerings to expand its Farming and Water Business.  During 2010, the Company completed a $2,900,000 capital raise through a private placement of its common shares to accredited investors.  The net cash to the Company after offering costs was $2,204,000.
 
 In early 2011, the Company raised an additional $2,000,000 through a convertible note offering to accredited investors. The net to the Company after direct cost of the offering was approximately $1,780,000.
 
 We believe that there is opportunity to create shareholder value through the proper expansion and management of farming and water assets.  We plan to only grow commodity grains that can benefit from the increasing world demand for food and serve as a hedge against inflation and a weak U.S. Dollar.
 
 With the Farming Business, we will be growing our Water Business.  In the western U.S., water is inextricably tied to farming.  We own our water assets and plan to expand our water ownership.
 
 We will grow our Farming Business through the purchase of distressed water and irrigated farmland in southern Colorado.  These plans are dependent upon the acquisition of funds.
 
 Results of Operations
 
 For the Year Ended December 31, 2010 Compared to the Year Ended December 31, 2009
 
 Our revenues are a result of the activities of our Farming and Water Business.
 
 During the year ended December 31, 2010, we recognized revenues from continuing operations of $196,000, compared to $11,000 in revenues from continuing operations during the year ended December 31, 2009.  The increase of $185,000 was a result of the Company’s new focus in agriculture and water.   During the year ended December 31, 2010, we recognized direct cost of revenue of $285,000 to produce a $89,000 negative gross margin.   This was a result of farming startup costs with new farming land acquired.

 Table of Contents
 
 During the year ended December 31, 2010, operating expenses from continuing operations were $7,518,000 compared to $2,180,000 for the year ended December 31, 2009.  The increase of $5,338,000 was primarily a result of stock based compensation of $4,841,000 (compared to $118,000 for the year ended December 31, 2009) and an increase in expenses related to the Farm and Water Business.  These figures produced a loss from continuing operations of $8,516,000 for the year ended December 31, 2010 compared to a loss from operations of $1,834,000 for the year ended December 31, 2009.  For the year ended December 31, 2011, we anticipate stock based compensation to reduce to approximately $2,000,000 while our operating expenses increase due to increased farming activity.
 
 During the year ended December 31, 2010 the Company continued to discontinue its operations in the real estate and mortgage businesses.  This segment is classified as Discontinued Operations in the Statement of Consolidated Operations.  During the year ended December 31, 2010, the Company recognized a loss of $946,000 compared to a loss of $1,266,000 for the year ended December 31, 2009.  Due to most of our discontinued operations being completed in 2010, we anticipate future loss from Discontinued Operations to decrease substantially.
 
 During  the year  ended  December  31,  2010,  we  recognized  a net  loss  from both continuing and discontinued operations of $9,466,000 compared to a net loss of $2,925,000 during the year ended December 31, 2009.  The resulting increased loss of $6,541,000 in net income was primarily a result of stock based compensation expenses of $4,841,000, additional interest expense and costs associated with the Company’s expansion in the Farm and Water Business.
 
 LIQUIDITY
 
 From the Company’s inception through December 31, 2010, we have funded our operations primarily from the following sources:
 -
Equity and debt proceeds through private placements of Two Rivers securities;
 -
Revenue generated from operations;
 -
Loans and lines of credit;
 -
Sales of residential properties acquired through deed-in-lieu actions;
 -
Sales of equity investments, and
 -
Proceeds from the exercise of legacy Navidec, Inc. Options
  Cash flow from operations has not historically been sufficient to sustain our operations without the above additional sources of capital.  As of December 31, 2010, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $645,000. Cash flow consumed by our operating activities totaled $2,205,000 for the year ended December 31, 2010 compared to operating activities consuming $1,922,000 for the year ended December 31, 2009.
 
 As of December 31, 2010, the Company had $699,000 in current assets and $577,000 in current liabilities.  The Company intends to continue with its strategy of liquidating its real estate assets to expand their Farm and Water Business and on offering additional debt and common stock in order to provide additional capital to be used in the support of its operations.
 
 Cash flows used by our investing activities for the year ended December 31, 2010, were $5,964,000 compared to $136,000 used for the year ended December 31, 2009.  In the year ended December 31, 2010 we used proceeds of $2,583,000 from the sale of our real estate owned (“REO”), Boston real estate, and other assets held for sale to fund our Farm and Water Business, which included $8,012,000 for the purchase of land and water shares and $326,000 for engineering work for the dam reconstruction.
 
 In the year ended December 31, 2009, we used proceeds of $2,710,000 from the sale of our REOs to fund our Farm and Water Business, which included $2,711,000 for the purchase of land and water shares and $163,000 for engineering work for the dam reconstruction.

 Net cash produced in financing activities was $8,198,000 for the year ended December 31, 2010 compared to a production of cash of $1,800,000 for the year ended December 31, 2009.  During 2010 we increased our long-term borrowings by $6,951,000 through owner financing of the water and land purchase for the Farm and Water Business, paid down $950,000 in real estate loans concerning our discontinued operations, and sold $2,202,000 in the Company’s common stock in a private placement (net of offering costs) and retired $5,000 of our common stock through open market purchases.
 
 Subsequent to December 31, 2010 and through March 1, 2011 (when the offering was closed), the Company has sold $2,000,000 in its current convertible debt private placement.
 
 For the year ended December 31, 2009 from financing activities we generated $1,800,000 through increased long term borrowings of $2,175,000, a private placement of $150,000 and option exercise of $10,000.  The Company paid down $441,000 in real estate loans and paid $94,000 to retire its own common shares.
 
 CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
 Two Rivers has identified the policies below as critical to Two Rivers’ business operations and the understanding of Two Rivers results from operations.  The impact and any associated risks related to these policies on the Company’s business operations is discussed throughout Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Conditions and Results of Operations where such policies affect Two Rivers reported and expected financial results.  For a detailed discussion on the application of these and other accounting policies, see Note 2 in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements.  Note that the Company’s preparation of this document requires Two Rivers to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of Two Rivers’ financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period.  There can be no assurance that actual results will not differ from those estimates.
 
 REVENUE RECOGNITION
 
 Two Rivers follows very specific and detailed guidelines in measuring revenue; however, certain judgments may affect the application of Two Rivers’ revenue policy.  Revenue results are difficult to predict, and any shortfall in revenue or delay in recognizing revenue could cause Two Rivers’ operating results to vary significantly from quarter to quarter and could result in future operating losses.
 
 REVENUES FROM FARMING OPERATIONS
 
 Revenues from farming operations are recognized when sold into the market.  All direct expenses related to farming operations are capitalized as inventory and recognized as a direct cost of sale upon the sale of the crops.

 ALLOWANCE FOR BAD DEBT
 
 Two Rivers’ policy on allowances for bad debt determines the timing and recognition of expenses.  The Company follows guidelines that establish allowances based off of historical and account specific trends; however, certain judgments affect the application of Two Rivers’ bad debt allowance policy. Two Rivers receivables are recorded net of an allowance for doubtful accounts which requires management to estimate amounts due which may not be collected.  This estimate requires consideration of general economic conditions, overall historical trends related to the Company’s collection of receivables, customer specific payment history, and customer specific factors affecting their ability to pay amounts due.  Management routinely assesses and revises its estimate of the allowance for doubtful accounts.  As of year ended December 31, 2010, we had $237,000 allowances for bad debt and valuation impairments, as follows:
 
 Allowance for:

144,000Real Estate  owned – depreciation

 GOODWILL AND INTANGIBLE ASSETS
 
 During the year ended 2009 and subsequently, the Company has acquired water shares in the Mutual Ditch Company, which is considered an intangible asset.   Currently, the water shares are recorded at purchase price.  Management evaluates the carrying value, and if necessary, will establish an impairment of value to reflect current fair market value.  Currently, there are no impairments on the land and water shares.
 
 Under the terms of the HCIC joint venture, the non-related party owning 50% of HCIC, TRB, contributed options on purchasing the Mutual Ditch Company along with purchase agreements for acquiring land.  TRB also contributed cash being held in escrow or that had been paid to owners of the shares of the Mutual Ditch Company.  The Company valued the TRB’s contribution to HCIC at $2,850,000.
 
 On September 14, 2010, TRWC obtained 100% ownership of HCIC.  The owners of TRB were issued 7,500,000 shares of the Company’s common stock in exchange for 100% of their ownership in HCIC.  This transaction was booked at fair value and substantiated by an appraisal as of March 2, 2010 and September 30, 2010.
 
 At March 31, 2010, HCIC owned 71% ownership in the Mutual Ditch Company.  Since the Company consolidated HCIC, the Mutual Ditch Company was also consolidated in the Company’s financials.   After a majority share of the Mutual Ditch Company was acquired, the Company ordered an appraisal of the Ditch Company.
 
 During the three months ended December 31, 2010, the Company received a formal appraisal of the Mutual Ditch Company as follows:
 
 As of March 2, 2010 (the date HCIC acquired majority interest in the Mutual Ditch Company)
$24,196,000As of September 30, 2010
$26,217,000
 
 The appraisal was performed by a professional engineering firm, which is an unrelated entity to the Company.   The lead appraiser is a senior principal consultant with the engineering firm and is a Professional Engineer and a Certified General Appraiser in Colorado and Arizona.  The appraisal covered all of the assets owned by the Mutual Ditch Company using a highest and best use as agriculture.  The appraisal approach to value used the sales comparison, cost and income approach.

 Page 26
 Table of Contents
 
 Upon receiving the appraisal, the Company adjusted its March 31, 2010, June 30, 2010 and September 30, 2010 balance sheet to reflect the fair value of the Mutual Ditch Company at $24,196,000.   As of December 31, 2010, the Company owned 91% of the Mutual Ditch Company; therefore, 9% of the $24,196,000 valuation, or $2,178,000, is recognized in equity as the non-controlling interest in a subsidiary, less previous loss and negative member equity of $71,000 and its share of income of $4,000, for a total non-controlling interest in subsidiary of $2,111,000.
 
 QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
 
 Two Rivers is exposed to the impact of interest rate changes and change in the market values of the Company’s investments.  Based on Two Rivers'  market  risk  sensitive instruments  outstanding  as of December 31, 2010,  as described  below,  it has determined  that there was no  material  market risk  exposure to the  Company's consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows as of such date. Two Rivers does not enter into derivatives or other financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes.
 
 INTEREST RATE RISK
 
 At December 31, 2010, the Company’s exposure to market rate risk for changes in interest rates relates primarily to its borrowings, as well as, its mortgage services business.  Two Rivers has not used derivative financial instruments in its credit facilities.  A hypothetical 10% increase in the Prime Rate would not be significant to the Company's financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.
 
 IMPAIRMENT POLICY
 
 At least once every quarter, Two Rivers examines all of their assets for proper valuation and to determine if an allowance for impairment is necessary.  In terms of real estate owned, this impairment examination also includes the accumulated depreciation.   Management examines market valuations and if an additional impairment is necessary for lower of cost or market, then impairment is booked.  However, if Management, based on changes in the market value of the assets, determines the impairment to be over stated, the existing impairment is reduced to reflect management’s new estimate of value.
 
 INVESTMENT RISK
 
 From time to time Two Rivers has made investments in equity instruments in companies for business and strategic purposes.  These investments, when held, are included in other long-term assets and are accounted for under the cost method since ownership is less than 20% and Two Rivers does not assert significant influence.
 
 INFLATION
 
 Two Rivers does not believe that inflation will have a material negative impact on its future operations.

 We have adopted and maintain disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules  13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)  under the Securities  Exchange Act of 1934,  as  amended  (the  "Exchange  Act")  that are  designed  to ensure  that information  required to be disclosed in our reports  under the Exchange Act, is recorded,  processed,  summarized and reported within the time periods  required under  the  SEC's  rules and forms  and that the  information  is  gathered  and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer (Principal Executive Officer) and Chief Financial Officer (Principal Financial Officer), as appropriate, to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
 
 As required by SEC Rule 15d-15(b), Mr. John McKowen, our Chief Executive Officer and Mr. Wayne Harding, our Chief Financial Officer carried out an evaluation on the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Exchange Act Rule 15d-14 as of the end of the period covered by this report

 ITEM 9A(T).   CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
 
 Management's Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting.
 
 Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting for the company in accordance with as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act.  Our internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.  Our internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that:
 
 (i)
pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of our assets;
 
 (ii)
provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that our receipts and expenditures are being made on in accordance with authorizations of our management and directors; and
 
 (iii)
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.
 
 Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements.  Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
 
 Management’s assessment of the effectiveness of the small business issuer’s internal control over financial reporting as of the year ended December 31, 2010, is that we believe that internal control over financial reporting has not been effective, and we are in the process of improving controls, to the extent possible given the number of employees.  We have identified certain material weaknesses of accounting relating to a shortage of accounting and reporting personnel due to limited financial resources and the size of our Company.  This material weakness can lead to the following:
 ·
An inability to ensure there is timely analysis and review of accounting records, spreadsheets, and supporting data; and
 ·
an inability to effectively monitor access to, or maintain effective controls over changes to, certain financial application programs and related data.
 
 Considering the nature and extent of our current operations and any risks or errors in financial reporting under current operations and the fact that we have been a small business with limited employees caused a weakness in internal controls involving the areas disclosed above.
 
 In 2008, we hired a full time in-house Certified Public Accountant, who, as of September 2009, became our Chief Financial Officer and have taken the following steps:
 ·
we have authorized the addition of additional staff members to the finance department to ensure that there are sufficient resources within the department to prepare our financial statements and disclosures in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America; and
 ·
we are in the process of analyzing our processes for all business units and the establishment of formal policies and procedures with necessary segregation of duties, which will establish mitigating controls to compensate for the risk due to lack of segregation of duties.
 ·
In 2010 we established an audit committee to oversee the financial operations and reporting of the Company.

 COMMITTEES OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS
 
 We are managed under the direction of our board of directors.  The Company’s board has established two committees: Audit and the Nominating, Compensation, Corporate Governance.
 
 CONFLICTS OF INTEREST - GENERAL
 
 Our directors and officers are, or may become, in their individual capacities, officers, directors, controlling shareholder and/or partners of other entities engaged in a variety of businesses.  Thus, there exist potential conflicts of interest including, among other things, time, efforts and corporation opportunity, involved in participation with such other business entities. While each officer and director of our business is engaged in business activities outside of our business, they devote to our business such time as they believe to be necessary.
 
 CONFLICTS OF INTEREST - CORPORATE OPPORTUNITIES
 
 Presently no requirement is contained in our Articles of Incorporation, Bylaws, or minutes which require officers and directors of our business to disclose to us business opportunities which come to their attention. Our officers and directors do, however, have a fiduciary duty of loyalty to us to disclose to us any business opportunities which come to their attention, in their capacity as an officer and/or director or otherwise.  Excluded from this duty would be opportunities which the person learns about through his involvement as an officer and director of another company.  We have no intention of merging with or acquiring an affiliate, associate person or business opportunity from any affiliate or any client of any such person.
 
 SECTION 16(a) BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP REPORTING COMPLIANCE
 
 Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act requires our Officers and Directors, and persons who own more than 10% of a registered class of our equity securities, to file reports of ownership and changes in ownership with the SEC.  Officers, directors and greater than 10% shareholders are required by SEC regulation to furnish us with copies of all Section 16(a) forms they file.  Based solely on our review of copies of such reports received, and representations from certain reporting persons, we believe that, during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010, all of the Section 16(a) filing requirements applicable to our officers, directors and greater than 10% beneficial owners were filed in compliance with all applicable requirements.

 ITEM  13.   CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS AND DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCE
 
 Intercompany Transactions
 
 Starting in July 2007, Two Rivers began lending money to Northsight to enable Northsight to make short term, mortgage backed loans to borrowers who are purchasing deeply discounted or foreclosed residential real estate in Arizona and Colorado.
 
 In June, 2008, Two Rivers became the direct funding source for the short term, mortgage backed loans with Northsight acting as the mortgage originator.  Therefore, Northsight transferred the loans outstanding back to Two Rivers in exchange for the cancellation of the intercompany note.  As of December 31, 2010, Two Rivers had $227,000 in short term bridge loans outstanding, which is net of an allowance for uncollectable loans of $144,000.

The entire fair value of the RSUs is $4,562,000 and is expensed over vesting period and recognized as income to recipient in the year of vesting.

 Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
 
 
 Board of Directors and Shareholders
 Two Rivers Water Company and Consolidated Subsidiaries
 
 We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Two Rivers Water Company and Consolidated Subsidiaries, as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, and the related consolidated Statements of Operations, Stockholders' Equity, and Cash Flows for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009. 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 audits.
 
 We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States of America). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform an audit of its internal control over financial reporting.  Our audits 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 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 our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
 
 In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Two Rivers Water Company and Consolidated Subsidiaries as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, and the results of its consolidated operations and cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

  TWO RIVERS WATER COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES
 NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 For the Years Ended December 31, 2010 and 2009
 
 NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION
 The following is a summary of some of the information contained in this document.  Unless the context requires otherwise, references in this document to “Two Rivers Water Company,” “Two Rivers,” or the “Company” is to Two Rivers Water Company and its subsidiaries.
  Two Rivers was incorporated in December 2002 in the state of Colorado.  The Company was formerly known as Navidec Financial Services, Inc. until it changed its name on November 19, 2009 to Two Rivers Water Company.  The Company’s operations are centered in Colorado.
 
 Two Rivers currently operates farming operations along with a water acquisition, development and distribution business in southern Colorado.
 
 On August 17, 2009, HCIC Holdings, LLC (“HCIC”), a Colorado limited liability company, was formed to acquire and operate a water business consisting of ownership of water rights, storage of water and distribution of water (the “Water Business”).  Upon formation, Two Rivers owned 50% of HCIC and a non-related group owned the other 50%.  On September 14, 2010, Two Rivers purchased the 50% interest of the non-related group; therefore, Two Rivers now owns 100% of HCIC, through its 100% owned subsidiary, TRWC, Inc.
 
 On January 5, 2010 the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”) authorized to offer the Company’s restricted common stock at $1.00/share.  The maximum offering was 5,000,000 shares, with no minimum.  This offering was closed on August 31, 2010 and sold 2,900,000 shares, raised $2,400,000 and issued 500,000 shares as a partial payment for land and water shares.
 
 On March 17, 2010, Two Rivers formed Two Rivers Farms, LLC (“Farms”) to acquire and operate agriculture land either as a sole operator or in joint venture with other individuals and companies (the “Farming Business”).  Two Rivers is Farms’ sole member and owner.  Two Rivers intends to hold whatever ownership interest it has in the Farming Business through Farms.  Further, Two Rivers intends to expand the Farming Business through one or more entities holding farming and water assets with Farms being the operator.
 
 On January 21, 2011, the Company formed Two Rivers Farms F-1, LLC to dedicate 500 acres of farmland and associated water rights to grow feed corn beginning with the 2011 growing season.  In February, 2011, the Company raised $2,000,000 through a convertible debt offering in order to fund the transfer of farming land, Mutual Ditch Company water shares, irrigation, land preparation and farming equipment for the 500 acres.
 
 On March 17, 2010, the Company formed Two Rivers Energy, LLC (“Energy”), a Colorado limited liability company, to potentially produce alternative energy on land owned by the Company, or the Company’s subsidiaries.  Two Rivers is Energy’s sole member and owner.  Two Rivers intends to hold whatever ownership interest it has in energy related business within Two Rivers Energy, LLC.
 
 On June 30, 2010, the Company sold its 100% interest in Legendary Investment Group, LLC (“Legendary”) to its acting broker, a previous employee of Legendary, for a sales price of $9,000 plus the buyer assuming the office lease.

 On July 13, 2010, the Company formed Two Rivers Water, LLC, (“Water”) a Colorado limited liability company, to secure additional water rights, rehabilitate water storage structures and to develop one or more special water districts.
 
 Two Rivers has purchased the available outstanding shares of Huerfano-Cucharas Irrigation Company; a Colorado Mutual Ditch Company (the “Mutual Ditch Company”) located in Huerfano and Pueblo counties in the State of Colorado and additional land, which would assist in perfecting water rights and provide additional water resources.  As of December 31, 2010, HCIC had a 91% ownership in the Mutual Ditch Company.
 
 The Mutual Ditch Company owns a large privately held, on-stream reservoir of 41,200 acre feet capacity with associated direct flow and storage rights and a mutual ditch water distribution system that holds easement rights into the Arkansas River.  The Mutual Ditch Company also owns additional, smaller water storage facilities.
  The Company, through its 100% owned subsidiary Farms operates farms in Pueblo County, Colorado primarily growing U.S. No. 2 yellow corn which is used for animal feed.  The land being farmed is owned by a 100% subsidiary, Two Rivers Farms F-1, LLC (“F-1”).  F-1 has entered into a farming lease (“Farm Lease”) with Farms.  The Farm Lease shall be for a three year growing season, commencing in 2011 and ending in 2013.  The Farm Lease calls for Farms to pay F-1 an annual lease payment of $200 per acre plus an additional 33 1/3% of the gross profits from each annual grain crop.  Gross profits are defined as gross revenue less normal operating expenses, but also include an adjustment for depreciation in favor of Farms on all machinery and equipment including irrigation equipment owned by F-1.  The annual lease payment is due on February 1st of each year and begins on February 1, 2012.
 
 As the Company expands its Farming Business, water rights are also acquired.  These water rights are first deployed for the Farming Business.  Excess water rights may be acquired and will be used as the market demands.  As part of acquiring water rights, the Company is in the process of purchasing additional water rights and additional land which would assist in perfecting water rights and provide additional water resources.

 In coming to the conclusion to consolidate HCIC, the Company researched the authoritative literature as it pertains to the equity method of accounting and joint ventures (ASC 323.10.15).  Other considerations to be examined if there is a VIE relationship which pertains to the Company includes representation on the board of directors; participating in policy-making processes, and the interchange of managerial personnel (ASC 323.10.15-6).  Further, accounting standards require valuing TRB’s contribution in HCIC at fair value.  As of December 31, 2009, the Company estimated the valued of the TRB options to purchase shares in the Mutual Ditch Company to be $2,586,000.
 
 On September 14, 2010, TRWC obtained 100% ownership of HCIC.  The owners of TRB were issued 7,500,000 shares of the Company’s common stock in exchange for 100% of their ownership in HCIC.  This transaction was booked at fair value of $10,810,000 and substantiated by an independent third party appraisal as of March 2, 2010 and updated as of September 30, 2010.
 
 At March 31, 2010, HCIC owned 71% ownership in the Mutual Ditch Company.  Since the Company consolidated HCIC, the Mutual Ditch Company was also consolidated in the Company’s financials.   After a majority share of the Mutual Ditch Company was acquired, the Company ordered an appraisal of the Ditch Company.
 
 On October 29, 2010, the Company received a formal appraisal of the Mutual Ditch Company as follows:
 
 As of March 2, 2010 (the date HCIC acquired majority interest in the Mutual Ditch Company)
$24,196,000As of September 30, 2010
$26,217,000
 
 The appraisal was performed by a professional engineering firm, an unrelated entity to the Company.   The lead appraiser is a senior principal consultant with the engineering firm and is a Professional Engineer and a Certified General Appraiser in Colorado and Arizona.  The appraisal covered all of the assets owned by the Mutual Ditch Company using a highest and best use as agriculture.   The appraisal approach to value used the sales comparison, cost and income approach.
 
 Upon receiving the appraisal, the Company adjusted its unaudited March 31, 2010, June 30, 2010 and September 30, 2010 balance sheets to reflect the fair value of the Mutual Ditch Company at $24,196,000.   As of December 31, 2010, the Company owned 91% of the Mutual Ditch Company; therefore, 9% of the $24,196,000 valuation, or $2,178,000, is recognized in equity as the non-controlling interest in a subsidiary, less previous loss and negative member equity of $71,000 and its share of income of $4,000, for a total non-controlling interest in subsidiary of $2,111,000.

 NORTHSIGHT, INC. (formerly Navidec Mortgage Holdings, Inc.) – Discontinued Operations
 
 In early 2009 Northsight discontinued its short term bridge lending in an effort to reduce its exposure to credit risk.  No new loans have been granted since early 2009.  As of December 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009, Two Rivers had $227,000 (net of an allowance for impairment of $144,000) in long term bridge loans outstanding.
 
 SOUTHIE DEVELOPMENTS, LLC – Discontinued Operations
 
 Two Rivers formed a Colorado limited liability company, Southie Developments, LLC, (“Southie”) on January 31, 2008, as its sole and managing member.  Southie was organized to develop residential real estate for resale and to own and manage residential real estate acquired via foreclosure of real estate loans owned by Two Rivers.  Once a real estate loan defaults and Two Rivers obtains title to the collateral, Two Rivers transfers the property to Southie for development and management.  As part of the management and development of the properties transferred to it, Southie honored any existing residential leases and in some cases did expend monies for rehabilitation of the property with the expectation of selling the property in a short time period, usually less than one year.  However, if Southie deemed the property to be a good longer term investment, they might hold the property for periods longer than 12 months.  At December 31, 2010, Southie owned properties, as discussed below.
 
 In November 2007, Northsight purchased 56 Thomas Park, South Boston, Massachusetts 02127, a residential property, for $1,200,000 (“Thomas Park Property”).  This property was subsequently transferred to Southie.  The Thomas Park Property is a 6,000 square feet single family residence that Northsight converted into three 2,000 square feet individual condominium single family units.  As of May 19, 2008, Southie acquired a $1,200,000 construction loan with Mt. Washington Cooperative Bank for the development of the Thomas Park Property. The loan was due on October 1, 2010 with monthly interest only payments, at prime plus 2% interest rate and an interest rate floor of 7%.  As of December 31, 2009, the balance owed on the loan was $950,000.   Previously, this loan was due on November 19, 2009, but was extended to October 1, 2010.  As part of the agreement to extend the loan a principal reduction was due and an establishment of a restricted cash account to cover interest payments until June 1, 2010.   The restricted cash account was not established until January 12, 2010 and totaled $46,000.  As of June 30, 2010, the Company had invested $3,231,000 including the bank construction loan of $950,000.  During the three months ended September 30, 2010, the Company completed the sale of all three units for a gross sales price of $2,250,000 and recognized a loss of $110,000 over the previous impairment of $1,297,000.  Additionally, the Company has reserved $25,000 against future warranty repairs, which are for repairs up to 12 months from each unit’s sold date.  The Mt. Washington Cooperative Bank debt was paid in full and the restricted cash account closed.
 
 At December 31, 2010, Northsight had two vacant lots in Virginia with a carrying value of $31,000 (net of $93,000 impairment).
 
 Effective January 1, 2010, Two Rivers transferred 100% of its ownership of Southie to Northsight.

 NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
 Principles of Consolidation
 
 The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Two Rivers and its subsidiaries, TRWC, HCIC, Mutual Ditch Company, Farming, Water, Energy, Legendary, Northsight, and Southie.  As of December 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009, Northsight had a negative stockholders’ deficit, therefore, the consolidated financial statements do not include a provision for a noncontrolling interest in a subsidiary for Northsight.  All significant inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
 
 On August 17, 2009, Two Rivers through its wholly owned subsidiary TRWC, and TRB formed HCIC, a joint venture.  Each entity owned 50% interest in HCIC.  On September 14, 2010, TRWC purchased 100% of TRB’s ownership of HCIC through a merger and issuance of 7,500,000 shares of the Company’s stock to the members of TRB.
 
 During the period from August 17, 2009 until the merger on September 14, 2010, due to the Company being the sole contributor of operational cash, without which HCIC would be unable to operate, the Company treated its investment in HCIC as a Variable Interest Entity (VIE) and under US GAAP consolidated HCIC.
 
 In coming to the conclusion to consolidate HCIC, the Company researched the authoritative literature as it pertains to the equity method of accounting and joint ventures (Section 323.10.15).  Other considerations to be examined if there is a VIE relationship which pertains to the Company includes representation on the board of directors; participating in policy-making processes, and the interchange of managerial personnel (Section 323.10.15-6).  Further, accounting standards require valuing TRB’s contribution in HCIC at fair value, which, at the time of contribution, was estimated to be $2,850,000.
 
 On March 17, 2010, Two Rivers formed Two Rivers Farms, LLC and Two Rivers Energy, LLC as its wholly-owned subsidiaries.  Therefore, 100% of Farming and Energy operations and balance sheets are consolidated into Two Rivers.
 
 On July 13, 2010, Two Rivers formed Two Rivers Water, LLC as its wholly-owned subsidiary.  Therefore, 100% of Water operations and balance sheets are consolidated into Two Rivers.
 
 Non-controlling Interest
 
 Non-controlling interest is recorded for the entities HCIC and the Mutual Ditch Company that are consolidated but are not wholly owned by the Company.

 Table of Contents
 
 The Company owns 98% of Northsight and its subsidiaries.  Since Northsight and it subsidiaries have a negative net worth, non-controlling interest is not shown on the balance sheet.   The Company owns 91% of the Mutual Ditch Company.  As of December 31, 2010, the non-controlling members’ equity in the Mutual Ditch Company was $2,111,000.
 
 Reclassification
 
 Certain amounts previously reported have been reclassified to conform to current presentation.
 
 Use of Estimates
 
 The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions.  These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reported period.  Actual results could differ materially from those estimates.
 
 Cash and Cash Equivalents
 
 For purposes of reporting cash flows, Two Rivers considers cash and cash equivalents to include highly liquid investments with original maturities of 90 days or less. Those are readily convertible into cash and not subject to significant risk from fluctuations in interest rates.  The recorded amounts for cash equivalents approximate fair value due to the short-term nature of these financial instruments.
 
 Concentration of Credit Risk
 
 Financial instruments that potentially subject Two Rivers to significant concentrations of credit risk include cash equivalents, notes receivable and trade accounts receivable.  The Company maintains its cash and investment balances in the form of bank demand deposits, money market accounts, commercial papers and short-term notes with financial institutions that management believes to be of high credit quality.  Accounts receivable are typically uncollateralized and are derived from transactions with and from customers primarily located in the United States.
 
 As of December 31, 2010, the Company had $592,000 in an individual bank demand deposit, of which $250,000 is covered by FDIC insurance.  All other bank accounts were under the FDIC insurance limit of $250,000.
 
 Management reviews accounts receivable periodically and reduces the carrying amount by a valuation allowance that reflects management's best estimate of amounts that may not be collectible.  Allowances, if any, for uncollectible accounts receivable are determined based upon information available and historical experience.  As of December 31, 2010, there was an allowance of $144,000 against a long term mortgage balance of $371,000.   As of December 31, 2009, there was an allowance of $139,000 against a short term mortgage balance of $371,000.
 
 No revenues to unaffiliated customers represented 10% or more of the Company’s revenue for the year ended December 31, 2010.

 Fair Value of Financial Instruments
 
 The Company records fair value of monetary and nonmonetary instruments in accordance with ASC 820 Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures  The ASC establishes a framework for measuring fair value, establishes a fair value hierarchy based on inputs used to measure fair value, and expands disclosure about fair value measurements. Adopting this statement has not had an effect on the Company’s financial condition, cash flows, or results of operations.
 
 In accordance with ASC 820, the financial instruments have been categorized, based on the degree of subjectivity inherent in the valuation technique, into a fair value hierarchy of three levels, as follows:
 
 Level 1.  Inputs are unadjusted, quoted prices in active markets for identical instruments at the measurement date (e.g. U.S. Government securities and active exchange traded equity securities.
 
 Level 2.  Inputs (other than quoted prices included within Level 1) that are observable for the instrument either directly or indirectly (e.g. certain corporate and municipal bonds and certain preferred stocks).  This includes (i) quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, (ii) quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active, (iii) inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the instruments, and (iv) inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means.
 
 Level 3.  Inputs that are unobservable.  Unobservable inputs reflect the reporting entity’s subjective evaluation about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the financial instruments (e.g. certain structured securities and privately held investments).
 
 
 The appraisal performed by an engineering company of the Mutual Ditch Company used Level 2 inputs whereby the water rights were valued using comparable prices in markets that are not active.  The infrastructure of the Mutual Ditch Company, including water storage, ditches and diversion points, was valued at replacement cost less physical obsolescence and deterioration.
 
 As of December 31, 2010 the Company possesses water rights whose fair value will be measured at least on an annual basis.  The Company possesses financial instruments of a short-term nature, such as cash, prepaid expenses, advances receivable, accounts payable accrued liabilities, advances payable and convertible debenture, whose fair value can be approximated due to their short maturity.
 
 
 Notes Receivable
 
 The Company carries its notes receivable at cost or loan balance, subject to the valuation procedures described below.  The book value of these financial instruments is representative of their fair values. As of December 31, 2010 and 2009, the Company had a total of $227,000 and $232,000, respectively, invested in mortgages receivable, net of an allowance for bad debt of $144,000 and $139,000, respectively.
 
 Interest is accrued monthly on notes receivable as earned and is no longer accrued if the loan becomes more than 90 days past due.  The Company provides a valuation for certain loans that are delinquent.  The valuation account is netted against notes receivable.  As of December 31, 2010, $3,000 of interest was being accrued on one of the two remaining loans.  The other loan is in default and under legal action (see Note 12 on page [INSERT PAGE NUMBER]).  The mortgage that was classified as current was paid off in February 2011.

 Investments
 
 Investments in publicly traded equity securities over which Two Rivers does not exercise significant influence are recorded at market value in accordance with ASC 320 "Investments - Debt and Equity Securities," which requires that all applicable investments be classified as trading securities, available for sale securities or held-to-maturity securities. Comprehensive income includes net income or loss and changes in equity from the market price variations in stock and warrants held by the Company.
 
 Investments in non-publicly traded equity securities or non-marketable equity securities are stated at the lower of cost or estimated realizable value.
 
 Other Real Estate Owned
 
 Other real estate owned is comprised of real estate and other assets acquired through foreclosure, acceptance of a deed in lieu of foreclosure or otherwise acquired from the debtor in lieu of repayment of the debt.  Assets acquired through or instead of loan foreclosure are initially recorded at fair value less costs to sell when acquired, establishing a new cost basis.  Revenues, expenses and subsequent adjustments to fair value less estimated costs to sell are classified as expenses for other real estate owned. Depreciation is taken on property held and rented or with intent to rent.  Depreciation on residential real estate is computed straight-line over 27.5 years.
 
 Intangibles
 
 Intangibles with an indefinite life.  Two Rivers recognizes the estimated fair value of water rights acquired by the Company’s purchase of stock in the Mutual Ditch Company.   This intangible asset will not be amortized because it has an indefinite remaining useful life based on many factors and considerations, including, the historical upward valuation of water rights within Colorado.  Once per quarter, Management will assess the value of the water rights held, and in their opinion, if the rights have become impaired, Management will establish an allowance against the water rights.
 
 Impairments
 
 The market values of our assets are assessed quarterly by Management.  If the current market value is less than the net carrying value of the assets, an impairment charge is taken.  Subsequently, if market value recovers and the asset is held for sale, the impairment taken is recaptured, up to the amount of the accumulated impairment for each asset.  If the asset is held for long term, and the market value recovers, no recapture of impairment will be made.

 Property and Equipment
 
 Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization.  Depreciation is computed principally on the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of each type of asset which ranges from three to seven years.  Leasehold improvements are amortized over the remaining term of the applicable leases or their useful lives, whichever is shorter.  Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred; improvements and betterments are capitalized.  Upon retirement or disposition, the related costs and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts, and any resulting gains or losses are credited or charged to income.

 Fair Value of Financial Instruments
 
 The carrying value of cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables and payables approximated their fair value because of their short-term nature. Investments in debt securities are recorded at their amortized cost, which approximates fair value because of their short-term maturity.  Investments in marketable equity securities are recorded at fair value based upon quoted market prices.  Investments in non-marketable equity securities are based upon recent sales of similar securities by the investees and approximated their carrying value.  The Company’s borrowings approximate their carrying amounts based upon interest rates currently available to the Company.
 
 Revenue Recognition
 
 Farm Revenues
 
 Revenues from farming operations are recognized when sold into the market.  All direct expenses related to farming operations are capitalized as inventory and recognized as a direct cost of sale upon the sale of the crops.
 
 Stock Based Compensation
 
 Beginning January 1, 2006, the Company adopted the provisions of ASC 718 and accounts for stock-based compensation in accordance with ASC 718.  Under the fair value recognition provisions of this statement, stock-based compensation cost is measured at the grant date based on the fair value of the award and is recognized as expense on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period, which generally is the vesting period.  The Company elected the modified-prospective method, under which prior periods are not revised for comparative purposes.  The valuation provisions of ASC 718 apply to new grants and to grants that were outstanding as of the effective date and are subsequently modified.
  Two Rivers Water Company 2010 Annual Report - 10K
 Page 61
 Table of Contents
 
 All options granted prior to the adoption of ASC 718 and outstanding during the periods presented were fully-vested at the date of adoption.
  In December 2007, the SEC issued Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) 110 which was issued to express the understanding that the use of a “simplified” method, as discussed in SAB 107 in developing an estimate of expected term of “plain vanilla” share options in accordance with ASC 718 would be acceptable beyond December 31, 2007.  The Company adopted this standard beginning January 2008.
 
 Income Taxes
 
 Provision for income taxes represents actual or estimated amounts payable on tax return filings each year. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recorded for the estimated future tax effects of temporary differences between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and amounts reported in the accompanying balance sheets, and for operating loss and tax credit carry forwards.  The change in deferred tax assets and liabilities for the period measures the deferred tax provision or benefit for the period.  Effects of changes in enacted tax laws on deferred tax assets and liabilities are reflected as adjustment to the tax provision or benefit in the period of enactment.
 
 Net Income (Loss) per Share
 
 Basic net income per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) attributed to Two Rivers available to common shareholders for the period by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted net income (loss) per share is computed by dividing the net income for the period by the weighted average number of common and potential common shares outstanding during the period.
 
 The dilutive effect of 5,713,088 RSUs, 1,745,562 options and 2,815,000 warrants at December 31, 2010, has not been included in the determination of diluted earnings per share since, under ASC 260 they would anti-dilutive.
 
 Comprehensive Income (Loss)
 
 Comprehensive income (loss) includes net income or loss and changes in equity from the market price variations in securities held by the Company.  At December 31, 2010, no marketable securities were held.  At December 31, 2009, there were no remaining shares of BPZ to sell, and during the year ending December 31, 2009 the remaining shares of BPZ were sold representing a gain of $127,000.  Also in 2009, the Company sold other securities for a net loss of $94,000, for a net gain of $33,000.

The objectives of the disclosures about plan assets in an employer’s defined benefit pension or other postretirement plan are to provide users of financial statements with an understanding of 1) how investment allocation decisions are made, including the factors that are pertinent to an understanding of investment policies and strategies, 2) the major categories of plan assets, 3) the inputs and valuation techniques used to measure the fair value of plan assets, 4) the effect of fair value measurements using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) on changes in plan assets for the period, and 5) significant concentrations of risk within plan assets.
 
 ASC 715 was effective for the Company’s year ended December 31, 2009.  The adoption of ASC 715 did not have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements.
 
 FASB Statement No. 165, Subsequent Events(SFAS 165) (subsequently incorporated into the FASB Accounting Standards Codification – ASC 855) establishes general standards of accounting and disclosure of event that occurs after the balance sheet date but before the financial statements are issued or are available to be issued.  In particular, this guidance sets forth 1) the period after the balance sheet date during which management of a reporting entity should evaluate events or transactions that may occur for potential recognition or disclosure in the financial statements, 2)  the circumstances under which an entity should recognize events or transactions occurring after the balance sheet date in its financial statements, and 3) the disclosures that an entity should make about events or transactions that occurred after the balance sheet date.
 
 The Company adopted the tenets of the guidance surrounding Subsequent Events during its year ended December 31, 2010, the effects of which are more fully described in Note 14.
 
 There were various other accounting standards and interpretations issued in 2010 and 2009, none of which are expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, operations or cash flows.

 NOTE 3 – NOTES RECEIVABLE
 
 Notes Receivable – General
 
 During the year ended December 31, 2007, the Company entered a transaction with a former officer of the Company, Mr. Robert Grizzle.  In exchange for Mr. Grizzle’s shares in the Company, on May 3, 2007, Mr. Grizzle executed a note payable to the Company in the amount of $450,000. The note carried an 8% interest rate and was collateralized by 1,000,000 Aegis USA common shares, 1,500,000 Aegis USA preferred shares, 220,000 shares of the Company’s common stock and 200,000 options to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock at $0.05 per share held by Mr. Grizzle.  The note was a limited recourse note whereby Mr. Grizzle was personally responsible for one half the original principal and interest.  The balance owed was collateralized by Mr. Grizzle’s Aegis common and preferred shares and the Company’s common stock.  Further, the note provided that at the earlier of one year from the date that the common stock of the Company is publicly traded and his shares are registered for resale under an effective registration statement filed by the Company or December 31, 2009.  On September 30, 2007, Mr. Grizzle resigned as the Chief Operating Officer and the Chief Financial Officer of the Company.  On October 17, 2008, the Company filed with the SEC an S-8 registration statement registering Mr. Grizzle’s shares.
 
 During 2009, Mr. Grizzle paid $155,000 against principal plus all accrued interest through November 24, 2009.  During the year ended December 31, 2010, in order for the Company to receive a $215,000 loan from a private party, the Company’s Board authorized the assignment of the Company’s collateral in the Grizzle note to the lender.  Further, the Board authorized the full release of the note receivable from Grizzle.  The Company recognized the fair value of the note receivable released as an additional cost of land and water shares for the year ending December 31, 2010.

 NOTE 4 – INVESTMENTS
 
 In December 2007, Northsight, Inc. (a 98% owned subsidiary of the Company) purchased a three unit property in Boston, Massachusetts, known as Thomas Park. The objective was to rehabilitate the property and then sell it.  During the quarter ending June 30, 2008, this property was transferred to Southie Development, LLC (a 100% owned subsidiary of the Company).  As of December 31, 2009, the Company and subsidiaries had invested $2,962,000 in the property.  Part of this investment was funded by a $1,200,000 line of credit from Mt. Washington Cooperative Bank, of which $950,000 was payable on this line as of December 31, 2009.   At the end of 2009, the Company performed an analysis of the fair market value of the Thomas Park and reduced the market price by a 6% cost of sale and $240,000 estimated to complete the project and determined an allowance/impairment of $397,000 was necessary.  During 2010, the three units were sold and the line of credit from Mt. Washington Cooperative Bank was fully paid.   Net proceeds from Thomas Park after cost of sales and before the line of credit payoff was $1,925,000.

 The Company also has acquired real estate through foreclosure or deed in lieu of foreclosure (“REO”) from its activity in granting short term mortgage financing.  At December 31, 2009, the valuation of these real estate owned properties was $1,396,000 less an impairment allowance of $313,000 and accumulated depreciation on the rental properties of $40,000, for a net balance of $1,042,000.   At December 31, 2010 all of the Company’s REO properties were sold except for two vacant lots in Virginia The valuation of these real estate owned properties is $123,000 less an impairment allowance of $93,000 for a net balance of $30,000.
 
 Land and water shares
 
 Upon purchasing water shares and land, the value is recorded at the purchase price.  After a majority interest is acquired in a company holding water assets, the Company engages a certified appraiser to determine the valuation of the acquired water assets.  If the value of the water assets are greater than what the Company paid then a bargain purchase gain is recognized.   If the value of the water assets are less than what the Company paid then goodwill is recognized.
 
 Subsequent to purchase, management evaluates the carrying value, and if the carrying value is in excess of fair market, will establish an impairment allowance to reflect current fair market value.  Currently, there are no impairments on the land and water shares.  No amortization or depreciation is taken on the water shares and land, respectively.
 
 Options on real estate
 
 Under the terms of the HCIC joint venture, the non-related party owning 50% of HCIC, TRB, contributed options on purchasing the Mutual Ditch Company along with purchase agreements for acquiring land.  TRB also contributed cash being held in escrow or that had been paid to owners of the shares of the Mutual Ditch Company.  The Company initially valued TRB’s contribution to HCIC at $2,850,000.  As of September 30, 2010 all of the value of TRB’s contribution was transferred into the fair value of the Mutual Ditch Company.  As of December 31, 2010 no options remained for the purchase of interest in the Mutual Ditch Company.
 
 Dam construction
 
 The Company has commenced engineering for the reconstruction of the dam owned by the Mutual Ditch Company.  These costs are capitalized, added to the cost of the dam, and not amortized or depreciated until the dam reconstruction is completed in accordance with ASC 360 and 835.

 NOTE 5 – NOTES PAYABLE
 
 In May 2008, Northsight arranged for a construction line of credit for $1,200,000, due November 2009.  Proceeds from this line were used strictly for the renovation of the Thomas Park property in Boston with the intent to resale.  As of September 30, 2010, this line of credit was paid in full.
 
 Beginning on September 17, 2009, HCIC began acquiring shares in the Mutual Ditch Company and related land from a Mutual Ditch Company shareholder.  As part of these acquisitions, many sellers took back notes payable by HCIC to the seller.  As of December 31, 2009 these loans totaled $2,175,000. As of December 31, 2010 these loans totaled $9,126,000.   The notes carry interest at 6% per annum, interest payable monthly, the principal due September 1, 2012 through September 30, 2013, and are collateralized by the Mutual Ditch Company shares and land.
 
 Of the $9,126,000 in seller carry back notes, $2,705,000 provides the holders the right to convert some or all of the amounts owing into the Company’s stock at $1/share to $1.25/share.  The holder can convert anytime until the note is paid.  Since the stock conversion can happen at any time, ASC 470-20-35-7c2 requires a computation between the fair value of the Company’s common shares and the conversion price.   Any intrinsic value must be recognized on the date of the note as an increase to interest expense and an increase to additional paid in capital.  During the three months ended March 31, 2010, $864,000 of notes payable was incurred by the Company.  These notes allow the holder to convert $1 of debt for one share of the Company’s common stock.  Since the Company was offering a $1/share private placement with similar terms to the note payable conversion provisions, no additional interest expense was recognized.
 
 During the three months ended September 30, 2010 the Company incurred an additional $1,841,000 in notes payable for additional shares of the Mutual Ditch Company.  This note payable is at 6% per annum, interest payable monthly and due on September 30, 2013. The terms of the notes payable allows the holder to convert up to $1,250,000 of debt into 1,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at any time after September 30, 2010 for $1.25 per share.  This beneficial conversion incurred an additional interest expense of $325,000 in the three months ending December 31, 2010.

 During the year ended December 31, 2010, the Company converted for an employee 20,000 Northsight stock options to 20,000 options in Two Rivers.
 
 Northsight issued 200,000 of its stock options to the purchaser of Legendary.   Using the Black-Scholes model of fair value, the total expense to recognize was less than $1,000 and therefore no expense was recognized.
 
 If all of the Northsight options outstanding at December 31, 2010 were exercised, the impact on the minority interest would be immaterial.
 
 The Black-Scholes model of fair value was used using the following variables:
 
 Expected stock price volatility
122%Risk-free interest rate
2.64%Expected option life (years)
3.3 to 5.2Expected annual dividend yield
0%
 
 In December 2007, the SEC issued Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) 110 which was issued to express the understanding that the use of a “simplified” method, as discussed in SAB 107 in developing an estimate of expected term of “plain vanilla” share options in accordance with ASC 718 would be acceptable beyond December 31, 2007. The Company adopted this standard beginning January 2008, and it did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
  Two Rivers Water Company 2010 Annual Report - 10K
 Page 71
 Table of Contents
  
 The fair value of each option award is estimated on the date of grant using a Black-Scholes option pricing model that uses the assumptions noted in the table below. Because this option valuation model incorporates ranges of assumptions for inputs, those ranges are disclosed above. The Company utilizes historical volatility of other entities in a similar line of business for a period commensurate with the contractual term of the underlying financial instruments and used weekly intervals for price observations. The Company will continue to consider the volatilities of those entities unless circumstances change such that the identified entities are no longer similar to the Company or until there is sufficient information available to utilize the Company’s own stock volatility. The risk-free rate for periods within the expected term of the option is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant. The Company believes these estimates and assumptions are reliable. However, these estimates and assumptions may change in the future based on actual experience as well as market conditions.
 
 During the year ended December 31, 2010, the Company converted 1,905,948 of its stock options to RSUs.  Under ASC 718, a computation was made to perform a fair value of the options and the fair value of the RSUs.  Further, during the year ended December 31, 2010, an additional 3,807,140 RSUs were granted to the Company’s key employees.  The expense recognized for the year ended December 31, 2010 is $4,841,000.  The remaining unamortized amount is $4,580,000.  Upon the change of RSU vesting schedules, the valuation of the RSUs were recomputed and amortized in 2010.  The RSUs vest over a three year period, beginning in January, 2011.

  NOTE 8 – INCOME TAXES
  At December 31, 2010, the Company generated a net operating loss.  Prior net operating tax losses were carried back and no other tax refund exist for prior taxes paid.  Therefore, any operating tax losses generated will be carried forward.  However, there is no certainty that the Company will reach profitability to utilize the tax loss carry forwards.  Therefore, no tax receivable is recognized.  The calculations are as follows:

 NOTE 9 – DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS
 
 During the year ended December 31, 2009, the Company decided to shift its focus from the short term residential mortgage banking and ownership of residential rental property to the Water Project.  In order to assist in the funding of the Water Project, the Company began an orderly liquidation of its mortgage and real estate assets.  It is expected that this liquidation will be completed by December 31, 2010.
 
 The assets to be liquidated are presented at the lower of cost or current market values, as of December 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009 and are detailed as follows:

 Within the discontinued operations, during the year ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, the Company recognized a loss on disposal of real estate of $153,000 and a loss of $8,000, respectively.
 
 Within the discontinued operations, and not including the loss on disposal of real estate, during the year ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, the Company had $76,000 and $206,000 in revenue, respectively.
 
 Because it is Management’s estimate that the above assets to be sold are stated at the lower of cost or current fair market value, when these assets are sold it is projected not to be a further gain or loss.  However, market conditions can change which would then cause a gain or loss to be recognized upon sale.
 
 These assets are held in the Company’s subsidiaries Northsight and Southie.

 NOTE 11 – RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
 
 In August 2009, the Company signed a one year lease for office space to be used by Two Rivers Water Company in Walsenburg Colorado.  The rate is $600 per month.  The building is owned by an officer of a subsidiary of the Company.  Management believes that this rent payment approximates the fair market value.  This lease was terminated in January, 2011 and replaced by a month-to-month signage lease at $200 per month.
 
 On August 18, 2009, the Company loaned $110,118 to an individual who was subsequently appointed as an officer of a subsidiary of the Company.  The note was secured by cattle and 200,000 shares of the Company’s common stock.   On August 24, 2009, the Company loaned an additional $11,840 to the same officer using the same collateral being held against the August 18, 2009 note.   The notes were due in six months and had an annual interest rate of 5%.On August 19, 2009, the individual who the Company loaned money was appointed an officer of one of the Company’s subsidiaries. Due to the limitations of having an officer borrow funds from the Company where that person is an officer, the Company requested repayment of the notes from the officer, which were paid in full with interest on November 10, 2009. On November 10, 2009, the Company purchased 320 acres from the officer for $260,000.  The Company deems this purchase strategic to its expansion in the water business.  An independent appraisal valued the land at $310,000.

 NOTE 12 – LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
 
 Carson Suit
 
 The Company was a co-defendant in a lawsuit filed on April 2, 2008 in Jackson County Circuit Court in Missouri.   The Company loaned money to Lydia Carson (borrower) to purchase a home in Kansas City Missouri.   The plaintiffs claimed they had a superior lien on the property that was in place before the borrower borrowed money from the Company for the purchase. On June 30, 2010, the amount owed by Lydia Carson to the Company was $253,000 (note balance of $315,000 less escrow held of $62,000).  On April 27, 2010 the Company received a judgment granting the Company a first lien position.  The Company is in the process of attempting to collect the judgment.
 
 Morrow Suit
 
 The Company was notified in September, 2009 that it was named as a defendant in a lawsuit that alleges either the Company or another third party bank did not have a proper promissory note and deed of trust against a short-term mortgage loan made to a borrower in April, 2008 (“Morrow” loan and suit).   After the Morrow loan was made by the Company, the note was improperly transferred to Jaguar.  When the improper transfer was discovered by the Company, the Company requested Jaguar to return all documents to the Company or fund the loan.  On August 4, 2008, Jaguar re-assigned the note and deed of trust back to the Company.  However, Jaguar never returned to the Company the original lending file and documentation.  During the period of time that Jaguar was in possession of the Morrow file, the lawsuit alleges that Jaguar used the Morrow note and deed of trust to obtain money from another third-party bank.
 
 Morrow sold the property representing the security interest via the deed of trust in the note in February 2009.   Closing occurred through a title company with title insurance issued.  At the closing, the Company received $77,000 as payoff on the Morrow note.  Therefore, the other third party bank did not receive any proceeds.   Presently the third party bank is suing the current owner of the property that Morrow sold for payment on the note.  The property owner has filed a complaint in State of Colorado, Adam County District Court naming Northsight and the third party bank as defendants.  The plaintiff seeks either Northsight to pay the third party bank or for the third party bank to release its claim to the property.  If Northsight is not successful in its defense, then its exposure is $77,000 plus potential fees and interest.
 
 The Company believes it properly received the proceeds and is being represented by legal counsel to defend its position.  However, to avoid additional legal fees and potential exposure, the Company is in the process of offering a settlement to the plaintiff and has accrued a contingent liability.  A contingency exists with respect to this matter with a contingency recorded for the Company’s estimate of the cost of settlement.
