PART I – FINANCIAL INFORMATION




Item 1. Financial
Statements.




Basis
of Presentation




The
financial statements at September 30, 2008 and for the periods ended
September 30, 2008 and September 30, 2007 are unaudited. The condensed
financial statements include the accounts of NRDC Acquisition Corp. (the
“Company”). In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal
accruals) have been made that are necessary to present fairly the financial
position of the Company as of September 30, 2008 and the results of its
operations and its cash flows for the nine months then ended. The
December 31, 2007 balance sheet and the statement of stockholders’ equity
for the period ended December 31, 2007 have been derived from the audited
financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form
10-K.






The
statements and related notes have been prepared pursuant to the rules and
regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. Accordingly, certain
information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been
omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations.

1.
Organization and Proposed Business Operations




Nature
of Operations




NRDC
Acquisition Corp. (the “Company”) is a blank check company incorporated on
July 10, 2007 for the purpose of effecting a merger, capital stock
exchange, stock purchase, asset acquisition or other similar business
combination with one or more existing operating businesses (“Business
Combination”).




All
activity from the Company’s inception through September 30, 2008 relates
solely to the Company’s formation, a private placement (“Private Placement”) of
its securities, the initial public offering (“Public Offering” and, together
with the Private Placement, the “Offerings”) of its securities described below
and the Company’s efforts to identify a target business.




The
financial statements at September 30, 2008 and for the periods from
inception to September 30, 2008 and September 30, 2007, the three and nine
months ended September 30, 2008 and the period from inception to September 30,
2007 are unaudited. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of
normal adjustments) have been made that are necessary to present fairly the
financial position of the Company as of September 30, 2008, the results of its
operations and cash flows for the nine month period ended September 30, 2008,
the period from July 10, 2007 (inception) through September 30, 2007 and the
period from inception to September 30, 2008 and the results of operations for
the three month period ended September 30, 2008.  Operating results for the
interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results to be
expected for the full year.




The
registration statement for the Company’s Offering (as described in Note 4) was
declared effective on October 17, 2007 (the “Effective Date”).  The
Company consummated the offering on October 23, 2007, and received net proceeds
of approximately $384,000,000 and also received $8,000,000 of proceeds from the
private placement sale (“the Private Placement”) of 8,000,000 insider warrants
to NRDC Capital Management, LLC (the “Sponsor”).  The warrants sold in
the Private Placement are identical to the warrants sold in the Offering, but
the purchasers in the Private Placement have waived their rights to receive any
distributions upon liquidation in the event the Company does not complete a
Business Combination as described below.




The
Company’s management has broad discretion with respect to the specific
application of the net proceeds of this Offering, although substantially all of
the net proceeds of this Offering are intended to be generally applied toward
consummating a Business Combination.  There is no assurance that the
Company will be able to successfully effect a Business Combination. Upon the
closing of the Offering and Private Placement, $406,456,881 including
$14,490,000 of the underwriters’ discounts and commissions as described in Note
3, was deposited in a trust account (“Trust Account”) and invested in United
States “government securities” within the meaning of Section 2(a)(16) of the
Investment Company Act of 1940 having a maturity of 180 days or less or in money
market funds meeting certain conditions under Rule 2a-7 promulgated under the
Investment Company Act of 1940 until the earlier of (i) the consummation of its
first Business Combination and (ii) liquidation of the Company. The placing of
funds in the Trust Account may not protect those funds from third party claims
against the Company.  Although the Company will seek to have all
vendors, providers of financing, prospective target businesses or other entities
it engages, execute agreements with the Company waiving any right, title,
interest or claim of any kind in or to any monies held in the Trust Account,
there is no guarantee that they will execute such waiver agreements or that such
agreements will be enforceable.  NRDC Capital Management, LLC and the
Company’s executive officers have agreed that they will be liable under certain
circumstances to ensure that the proceeds in the Trust Account are not reduced
by the claims of target businesses or vendors, providers of financing, service
providers or other entities that are owed money by the Company for services
rendered to or contracted for or products sold to the Company.  There
can be no assurance that they will be able to satisfy those
obligations.  The net proceeds not held in the Trust Account may be
used to pay for business, legal and accounting due diligence on prospective
acquisitions and continuing general and administrative
expenses.  Additionally, up to an aggregate of $2,700,000 of interest
earned on the Trust Account balance may be released to the Company to fund
working capital requirements and additional funds may be released to fund tax
obligations.

The
Company, after signing a definitive agreement for the acquisition of a target
business, is required to submit such transaction for stockholder
approval.  In the event that public stockholders owning 30% or more of
the shares sold in the Offering vote against the Business Combination and
exercise their conversion rights described below, the Business Combination will
not be consummated.  All of the Company’s stockholders prior to the
offering (“Founders”), have agreed to vote their founding shares of common stock
in accordance with the vote of the majority of the shares voted by all other
stockholders of the Company (“Public Stockholders”) with respect to any Business
Combination and in favor of an amendment to our certificate of incorporation to
provide for the Company’s perpetual existence.  In addition, our
Founders have agreed to vote all shares they acquire in the secondary market in
favor of the business combination and for such amendment.  After
consummation of a Business Combination, these voting safeguards will no longer
be applicable.




With respect to a Business Combination
which is approved and consummated, any Public Stockholder who voted against the
Business Combination may demand that the Company convert his or her
shares.  The per share conversion price will equal the amount in the
Trust Account, calculated as of two business days prior to the consummation of
the proposed Business Combination, divided by the number of shares of common
stock held by Public Stockholders at the consummation of the
offering.  Accordingly, Public Stockholders holding 12,419,999 shares
sold in the Offering may seek conversion of their shares in the event of a
Business Combination.  Such Public Stockholders are entitled to
receive their per share interest in the Trust Account computed without regard to
the shares of common stock held by the Founders prior to the consummation of the
Offering.  Accordingly, a portion of the net proceeds from the
Offering (29.99% of the amount placed in the Trust Fund, including the deferred
portion of the Underwriters’ discount and commission) has been classified as
common stock subject to possible conversion and a portion (29.99%) of the
interest earned on the Trust Account, after deducting the amounts permitted to
be utilized for income tax obligations and working capital purposes, has been
recorded as deferred interest on the accompanying balance
sheets.  Pursuant to letter agreements, our sponsor and directors have
waived their right to receive distributions with respect to their founding
shares upon the Company’s liquidation.




The
Company’s Certificate of Incorporation provides that the Company will continue
in existence only until 24 months from the effective date of the Offering,
October 17, 2007.  If the Company has not completed a Business
Combination by such date, its corporate existence will cease and it will
dissolve and liquidate for the purposes of winding up its affairs.  In
the event of liquidation, it is likely that the per share value of the residual
assets remaining available for distribution (including Trust Fund assets) will
be less than initial public offering price per share in the Offering (assuming
no value is attributed to the Warrants contained in the Units to be offered in
the Offering discussed in Note 4).




2.
Earnings Per Common Share




Earnings per share is computed by
dividing net income by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock
outstanding during the period.  The effect of the 41,400,000 warrants
issued in connection with the Offering and the 8,000,000 outstanding warrants
issued in connection with the Private Placement has not been considered in
diluted income per share calculations since such warrants are contingently
exercisable.

3.
Concentration of Credit Risk




Financial instruments that potentially
subject us to a significant concentration of credit risk consist primarily of
cash and investments held in trust. We may maintain deposits in federally
insured financial institutions in excess of federally insured limits. However,
our management believes we are not exposed to significant credit risk due to the
financial position of the depository institutions in which those deposits are
held.







4.  Initial
Public Offering




On October 23, 2007, the Company sold
41,400,000 units (“Units”) in the Offering at a price of $10 per
unit.  Each Unit consists of one share of the Company’s common stock
and one Redeemable Common Stock Purchase Warrant (“Warrants”), including
5,400,000 units sold by the underwriters in their exercise of the full amount of
their over-allotment option.  Each Warrant will entitle the holder to
purchase from the Company one share of common stock at an exercise price of
$7.50 commencing the later of the completion of a Business Combination and 12
months from the effective date of the Offering and expiring four years from the
effective date of the Offering.  The Company may redeem all of the
Warrants, at a price of $.01 per Warrant upon 30 days’ notice while the Warrants
are exercisable, only in the event that the last sale price of the common stock
is a least $14.25 per share for any 20 trading days within a 30 trading day
period ending on the third day prior to the date on which notice of redemption
is given.  In accordance with the warrant agreement relating to the
warrants sold and issued in the Offering, the Company is only required to use
its best efforts to maintain the effectiveness of the registration statement
covering the Warrants.  The Company will not be obligated to deliver
securities, and there are no contractual penalties for failure to deliver
securities, if a registration statement is not effective at the time of
exercise.  Additionally, in the event that a registration is not
effective at the time of exercise, the holder of such Warrant shall not be
entitled to exercise such Warrant and in no event (whether in the case of a
registration statement not being effective or otherwise) will the Company be
required to net cash settle the warrant exercise.  Consequently, the
Warrants may expire unexercised and unredeemed.




In connection with the Offering, the
Company paid Banc of America Securities LLC, the underwriter of the Offering, an
underwriting discount of 7% of the gross proceeds of the Offering, of which 3.5%
of the gross proceeds ($14,490,000) will be held in the Trust Account and
payable only upon the consummation of a Business Combination Banc of America
Securities LLC have waived their right to receive such payment upon the
Company’s liquidation if the Company is unable to complete a Business
Combination.




Simultaneously with the consummation of
the offering, the Company’s Sponsor purchased 8,000,000 warrants (“Private
Placement Warrants”) at a purchase price of $1.00 per warrant, in a Private
Placement.  The proceeds of $8,000,000 were placed in the Trust
Account.  The Private Placement Warrants are identical to the Warrants
underlying the units sold in the Offering except that the Private Placement
Warrants will be exercisable on a cashless basis as long as they are still held
by the initial purchasers.  The initial purchasers have agreed that
the Private Placement Warrants will not be sold or transferred by them until
after the completion of a Business Combination.  The purchase price of
the Private Placement Warrants approximated the fair value of such warrants at
then purchase date.




Our Sponsor will be entitled to make up
to three demands that we register the 10,350,000 shares of common stock (the
“Founder’s shares”), the 8,000,000 private placement warrants and the shares for
which they are exercisable, and the 2,000,000 co-investment shares and the
2,000,000 co-investment warrants and the shares of common stock for which they
are exercisable, pursuant to an agreement signed prior to the Effective
Date.  Our Sponsor may elect to exercise its registration rights at
any time beginning on the date three months prior to the expiration of the
applicable transfer restrictions.  The restricted transfer period for
the shares and the co-investment shares of common stock expires on the date that
is one year after the consummation of the initial Business Combination, and the
restricted transfer period for the Private Placement Warrants and the shares for
which they are exercisable expires on the consummation of our initial Business
Combination.  Our directors will have “piggy-back” registration rights
with respect to the shares of common stock that they own prior to the completion
of this offering, subject to the same limitations with respect to the transfer
restriction period.  In addition, our Sponsor and our directors each
have certain “piggy-back” registration rights with respect to the shares held by
them on registration statements filed by us on or subsequent to the expiration
of the applicable transfer restriction period and unlimited






10




registration
rights with respect to a registration statement on Form S-3.  We will
bear the expenses incurred in connection with the filing of any registration
statement.  Pursuant to the registration rights agreement, our Sponsor
and our executive officers and directors will waive any claims to monetary
damages for any failure by us to comply with the requirements of the
registration rights agreement.




5.  Commitments




The Company has agreed to pay up to
$7,500 a month in total for office space and general and administrative services
to NRDC Capital Management, LLC.  Services commenced on the effective
date of the offering, October 17, 2007 and will terminate upon the earlier of
(i) the completion of the Business Combination, or (ii) the Company’s
liquidation.  For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008
and the period from July 10, 2007 (inception) through September 30, 2008, the
Company has incurred $22,500, $67,500 and  $83,951, respectively of
expenses relating to this agreement which is included in general/administrative
services in the accompanying Statements of Income.




NRDC Capital Management, LLC has agreed
to purchase from the Company an aggregate of 2,000,000 of its units at a price
of $10.00 per unit for an aggregate purchase price of $20,000,000 in a
transaction that will occur immediately prior to the consummation of our initial
Business Combination (the “Co-Investment”).  Each unit will consist of
one share of common stock and one warrant.




Pursuant to letter agreements our
sponsor and directors have waived their right to receive distributions with
respect to their founding shares upon the Company’s liquidation.




TheSponsor will be entitled to
registration rights with respect to their founding shares or Private Placement
Warrants (or underlying securities) pursuant to an agreement signed prior to the
Effective Date of the Offering.




6.
Recently Issued Accounting Standards




In December 2007, the Financial
Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards (“SFAS”) No. 141(R), Business Combinations (“SFAS 141R”) which
establishes principles and requirements for how the acquirer of a business
recognizes and measures in its financial statements the identifiable assets
acquired, the liabilities assumed, and any non-controlling interest in the
acquiree.  SFAS 141R also provides guidance for recognizing and
measuring the goodwill acquired in the business combination and determines what
information to disclose to enable users of the financial statements to evaluate
the nature and financial effects of the business combination.  SFAS
141R will have an impact to the Company for any acquisitions on or after
January 1, 2009.




In December 2007, the FASB released
SFAS No. 160, Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements an
amendment of ARB No. 51 (“SFAS 160”), which establishes accounting and reporting
standards for the ownership interests in subsidiaries held by parties other than
the parent and for the deconsolidation of a subsidiary.  SFAS 160 also
establishes disclosure requirements that clearly identify and distinguish
between the interest of the parent and the interests of the non-controlling
owners. SFAS 160 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years
beginning after December 15, 2008.  SFAS 160 may have a material
impact to the Company for any acquisitions on or after January 1,
2009.




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




7.
Income Taxes




During the nine months ended September
30, 2008 the Company paid $3,945,144 related to Federal and State income tax
expense and estimated tax payments.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations.




Forward-Looking
Statements




The
following discussion should be read in conjunction with our combined
consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included elsewhere in
this Form 10-Q.




This
Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements regarding the plans and
objectives of management for future operations. This information may involve
known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which may cause our
actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from
future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by any
forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements, which involve

generally identifiable by use of the words “may,” “will,” “should,” “expect,”
“anticipate,” “estimate,” “believe,” “intend” or “project” or the negative of
these words or other variations on these words or comparable terminology. These

Overview




The
following Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations should be read in conjunction with our financial
statements and the related notes and schedules thereto.




We were
formed on July 10, 2007 as a blank check company for the purpose of acquiring,
through a merger, stock exchange, asset acquisition, reorganization or similar
business combination, one or more operating businesses. We intend to use cash
derived from the net proceeds of our  Public Offering, which was
consummated on October 23, 2007, and the exercise by the underwriters of their
over-allotment option, which closed on October 23, 2007, together with any
additional financing arrangements that we undertake, to effect a business
combination.




Through
September 30, 2008, our efforts have been limited to organizational activities
and activities relating to our initial public offering; we have neither engaged
in any operations nor generated any revenues. For the three and nine months
ended September 30, 2008, we earned $1,506,740 and $4,672,270, respectively, in
interest income on the trust account net of deferred interest payable of
$338,654 and $810,428, respectively and we had accrued expenses and offering
costs of approximately $189,481. In addition, we had cash on hand of $8,965
at September 30, 2008.

we had cash outside the trust account of $8,965, prepaid expenses of $7,069,

the trust account of $8,965, prepaid expenses of $7,069, income taxes receivable

A
Net Loss of $731 was reported for the quarter ended September 30, 2007 and
consisted of general and administrative expenses of $731.  At
September 30, 2007, we had cash outside the trust account of $130,589, deferred
offering costs of $496,717, accrued offering costs of $402,306, and accounts

Results
of Operations for period from July 10, 2007 (inception) through September 30,
2008





Net
Income of $4,121,894 reported for the period from July 10, 2007 (inception)
through September 30, 2008 consisted primarily of interest income on the trust
account of $8,031,293 offset by $652,414 in expense for professional fees,
$34,000 in AMEX listing fees, $154,641 in insurance expense, $266,352 in other
expenses and $2,801,992 in income tax.  At September 30, 2008, we had
cash outside the trust account of $8,965, prepaid expenses of $7,069, income
taxes receivable of $506,278 and accounts payable and accrued expenses of
$187,981.




Until we
enter into a business combination, we will not have revenues other than interest
income, and will continue to incur expenses relating to identifying a target
business to acquire.




Item 3.
Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk.




To date,
our efforts have been limited to organizational activities and activities
relating to our initial public offering and the identification of a target
business; we have neither engaged in any operations nor generated any revenues.
As the proceeds from our initial public offering held in trust have been
invested in short term investments, our only market risk exposure relates to
fluctuations in interest rates.




We have not engaged in any hedging
activities since our inception on July 10, 2007. We do not expect to engage in
any hedging activities with respect to the market risk to which we are
exposed.





Item 4. Controls and
Procedures.




As of
September 30, 2008, we, including our chief executive officer, who also serves
as our principal financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the design
and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based on that
evaluation, our management, including the chief executive officer, concluded
that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective in timely alerting
management, including the chief executive officer, of material information about
us required to be included in periodic Securities and Exchange Commission
filings. However, in evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures,
management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well
designed and operated can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the
desired control objectives, and management necessarily was required to apply its
judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and
procedures.




PART II – OTHER INFORMATION




Item 1. Legal Proceedings.




There is
no litigation currently pending or, to our knowledge, threatened against us or
any of our officers or directors in their capacity as such.

Item 1A. Risk Factors.





In addition to the other information
set forth in this report, you should carefully consider the factors discussed in
the section titled “Risk Factors” in our Form 10-K as filed with the Securities
and Exchange Commission dated April 4, 2008, which could materially affect our
business, financial condition or future results. There have been no material
updates or changes to such Risk Factors that are required to be disclosed in
this Item 1A.




Item
2. Use of Proceeds from the Registered Offering and the Private
Placement




On
October 23, 2007, we consummated a private placement of 8,000,000 warrants
with NRDC Capital Management, LLC, an entity owned and controlled by the
executive officers of the Company, and our initial public offering of 41,400,000
units, including 5,400,000 units pursuant to the underwriters’ over-allotment
option.  We received net proceeds of approximately $384,000,000 and
also received $8,000,000 of proceeds from the private placement sale of
8,000,000 insider warrants to NRDC Capital Management, LLC. Banc of America
Securities, LLC served as the sole bookrunning manager for our initial public
offering.  The securities sold in the Offering were registered under
the Securities Act of 1933 on a registration statement on Form S-1
(No. 333-144871).  The Securities and Exchange Commission
declared the registration statement effective on October 17,
2007.




Substantially
all of the net proceeds of the Offering are intended to be generally applied
toward consummating a Business Combination with an operating
business.  There is no assurance that the Company will be able to
successfully affect a Business Combination.  Upon the closing of the
Offering and Private Placement, $406,456,881 including $14,490,000 of the
underwriters’ discounts and commissions was placed in a Trust Account and
invested in United States “government securities” within the meaning of
Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act of 1940 having a maturity of
180 days or less or in money market funds meeting certain conditions under
Rule 2a-7 promulgated under the Investment Company Act of 1940 until the
earlier of (i) the consummation of its first Business Combination and
(ii) liquidation of the Company.




No
portion of the proceeds of the Offering were paid to directors, officers or
holders of 100% or more of any class of our equity securities or their
affiliates.
