AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS  Note 1- BASIS OF PRESENTATION  The accompanying unaudited financial statements as of September 30, 2008 and for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2008 and 2007 have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP) for interim financial information. They do not include all of the information and footnotes for complete financial statements as required by GAAP. In Management's opinion, all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008 and 2007 presented are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Companys audited financial statements and notes thereto for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2007.   Note 2- ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS BACKGROUND  China Ruitai International Holdings Co., Ltd. ("China Ruitai" or the "Company") was initially organized under the laws of the State of Delaware on November 15, 1955 as Inland Mineral Resources Corp.  The Company subsequently changed its name to Parker-Levitt Corporation, and in 1997 changed its name to Commercial Property Corporation, and in 2006 changed its name to Shangdong Ruitai Chemical Co., Ltd.  On March 12, 2007, the Company changed its name to China Ruitai International Holdings Co., Ltd.  On February 26, 2007, the Company changed its fiscal year end from October 31 to December 31.  The Company was engaged in various real estate and development projects. The Company was not successful and discontinued the majority of its operations by 1981. On November 19, 1997, the Company issued common stock that resulted in a change in control andentered into a new development stage as defined in Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 7, "Accounting and Reporting by Development Stage Enterprises".  On August 29, 2007, the Company entered into a Share Exchange Agreement with Pacific Capital Group Co., Ltd., (Pacific Capital Group) a corporation incorporated under the laws of the Republic of Vanuatu, and the stockholders of Pacific Capital Group (the Stockholders).  Pursuant to the terms of the Share Exchange Agreement, the Stockholders agreed to transfer all of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock in Pacific Capital Group to the Company in exchange for the issuance of an aggregate of 22,645,348 shares of the Companys common stock to the Stockholders, thereby causing Pacific Capital Group and Pacific Capital Groups majority-owned operating subsidiary, TaiAn RuiTai Cellulose Co., Ltd. (TaiAn), a Chinese limited liability company, to become wholly-owned and majority owned-subsidiaries, respectively of the Company. The parties closed the share exchange contemplated by the Share Exchange Agreement on November 8, 2007.  The Share Exchange was being accounted for as a reverse merger, since the stockholders of Pacific Capital Group own a majority of the outstanding shares of the Companys common stock immediately following the Share Exchange.  Pacific Capital Group is deemed to be the acquirer in the reverse merger.  Consequently, the assets and liabilities and the historical operations that are reflected in the financial statements for periods prior to the Share Exchange are those of Pacific Capital Group and its subsidiary and will be recorded at the historical cost basis.  After completion of the Share Exchange, the Companys consolidated financial statements will include the assets and liabilities of bothChina Ruitai and Pacific Capital Group, the historical operations of Pacific Capital Group and the operations of the Company and its subsidiaries from the closing date of the Share Exchange.  Pacific Capital Group was incorporated on November 23, 2006 under the laws of the Republic of Vanuatu as a holding company, for the purposes of seeking and consummating a merger or acquisition with a business entity.  On April 26, 2007, following the approval by the relevant governmental authorities in the PRC, Pacific Capital Group acquired a 99% ownership interest in TaiAn, which was formed in the PRC on November 10, 1999.  As a result of the transaction, TaiAn became a majority-owned subsidiary of Pacific   9     Capital Group.  TaiAn is the only one of these affiliated companies that is engaged in business operations.  China RuiTai and Pacific Capital Group are holding companies, whose business is to hold an equity ownership interest in TaiAn.  TaiAn is engaged in the production, sales, and exportation of deeply processed chemicals, with a primary focus on non-ionic cellulose ether products. TaiAn's assets exist solely in the PRC, and its revenues are derived from its operations therein.  China Ruitai, Pacific Capital Group, and TaiAn are hereafter referred to as the Company.   Note 3- CONTROL BY PRINCIPAL OWNERS  The directors, executive officers, their affiliates, and related parties own, directly or indirectly, beneficially and in the aggregate, the majority of the voting power of the outstanding capital of the Company. Accordingly, directors, executive officers and their affiliates, if they voted their shares uniformly, would have the ability to control the approval of most corporate actions, including approving significant expenses, increasing the authorized capital and the dissolution, merger or sale of the Company's assets.   Note 4- SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES  Basis of consolidation  The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and all its majority-owned subsidiaries which require consolidation.  Inter-company transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.  The consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America ("US GAAP").  This basis of accounting differs from that used in the statutory accounts of the Company, which are prepared in accordance with the "Accounting Principles of China ("PRC GAAP").  Certain accounting principles, which are stipulated by US GAAP, are not applicable in the PRC GAAP.  The difference between PRC GAAP accounts of the Company and its US GAAP financial statements is immaterial.  Foreign Currencies Translation  The Company maintains its books and accounting records in PRC currency "Renminbi" ("RMB"), which is determined as the functional currency.  Transactions denominated in currencies other than RMB are translated into RMB at the exchange rates quoted by the Peoples Bank of China (PBOC) prevailing at the date of the transactions. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than RMB are translated into RMB using the applicable exchange rates quoted by the PBOC at the balance sheet dates. Exchange differences are included in the statements of changes in owners' equity.  Gain and losses resulting from foreign currency transactions are included in operations.  The Companys financial statements are translated into the reporting currency, the United States Dollar (US$).  Assets and liabilities of the Company are translated at the prevailing exchange rate at each reporting period end. Contributed capital accounts are translated using the historical rate of exchange when capital is injected. Income and expense accounts are translated at the average rate of exchange during the reporting period.  Translation adjustments resulting from translation of these financial statements are reflected as accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) in the owners equity.  Translation adjustments resulting from this process are included in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) in the consolidated statement of changes in shareholders equity and amounted to $1,302,787 as of September 30, 2008, and $570,712 as of December 31, 2007.  The balance sheet amounts with the exception of equity at September 30, 2008 were translated at 6.85 RMB to $1.00 USD as compared to 7.31 RMB at December 31, 2007. The equity accounts were stated at their historical rate.  The average   10     translation rates applied to income statement accounts for the nine months ended September 30, 2008 and 2007 were 7.00 RMB and 7.68 RMB, respectively.  Statement of Cash Flows  In accordance with SFAS No. 95, Statement of Cash Flows, cash flows from the Companys operations is calculated based upon the functional currency.  As a result, amounts related to assets and liabilities reported on the statement of cash flows may not necessarily agree with changes in the corresponding balances on the balance sheet.  Revenue Recognition  The Company recognizes revenue when the earnings process is complete. This generally occurs when products are shipped to unaffiliated customer or picked up by unaffiliated customers in the Company's warehouse, title and risk of loss have been transferred, collectibility is reasonably assured and pricing is fixed or determinable.  The corresponding freight-out and handling costs are included in the selling expenses.  The Company does not provide an unconditional right of return, price protection or any other concessions to our customers.  Sales returns and other allowances have been immaterial in our operation.  Deferred Revenue  Deferred revenue consists of prepayments to the Company for products that have not yet been delivered to the customers.  Payments received prior to satisfying the Companys revenue recognition criteria are recorded as deferred revenue.  Use of Estimates  The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period.  Actual results when ultimately realized could differ from those estimates.  Cash and Cash Equivalents  Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, deposits in banks with maturities of three months or less, and all highly liquid investments which are unrestricted as to withdrawal or use, and which have original maturities of three months or less at the time of purchase.  Bank checks and commercial paper  Bank checks and commercial paper include bank checks and commercial paper with original maturities of approximately 180 days or less at the time of issuance.  Book value approximates fair value because of the short maturity of those instruments. The Company receives these financial instruments as payments from its customers in the ordinary course of business.  Accounts Receivable  Accounts receivable are recorded at the invoiced amount and do not bear interest.  We generally grant new customers a one-month period in which to pay for goods that we have delivered to them, and we grant existing customers a two to three month period in which to pay for goods that we have delivered to them.  We used an indirect method of accounting to write off any accounts receivable which exceeded the allotted three month time period which we provide to our customers.  In circumstances in which we receive payment for accounts receivable which have previously been written off, we reverse the allowance and bad debt   11     expenses.  Concentrations of Credit Risk  Financial instruments that subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents. The Company maintains its cash and cash equivalents with high-quality institutions. Deposits held with banks may exceed the amount of insurance provided on such deposits. Generally these deposits may be redeemed upon demand and therefore bear minimal risk.  Fair Value of Financial Instruments  The carrying value of financial instruments including cash and cash equivalents, bank checks and commercial paper, receivables, accounts payable and accrued expenses, approximates their fair value due to the relatively short-term nature of these instruments.  Inventory  Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market value. Actual cost is used to value raw materials and supplies. Finished goods and work-in-progress are valued on the weighted-average-cost method. Elements of costs in finished good and work-in-progress include raw materials, direct labor, and manufacturing overhead.  Due from unaffiliated suppliers  The Company has been extending temporally short-term loans to some unaffiliated suppliers.  These loans are unsecured, non-interest bearing and have no fixed terms of repayment, therefore, deemed payable on demand.  Cash flows from due from unaffiliated suppliers are classified as cash flows from investing activities.  The Management believes the loans can help theses suppliers run their business, and in turn these suppliers can provide raw materials and services to the Company in a stable price.  The Managements evaluates the financial resources of the borrowers on a regular basis, to make sure the suppliers have the capability to pay back these loans.  Also, the Company has never had any bad debt with these suppliers.  Therefore, the Management believes that these loans are collectable.  Long-term investment  The long-term investment represents monetary investments in the Wenyang Xinyong Bank, a local state owned bank in Wenyang County, Shandong Province, PRC. The investments are transferable in accordance with the laws of the PRC. The investments are carried at cost which approximates fair value. The Company did not purchase any such long-term investment in the nine months ended September 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively.  Dividend income on these investments is recorded when received. There were no dividend received in the nine months ended September 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively.  The Company may sell these investments back to the bank at the book value.  Impairment of Long-life Assets  Long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangibles are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to future net cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets. Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell.    12     Restricted cash, and Bank checks payable  The Company pays its suppliers with bank checks in its ordinary business transactions.  Generally, the Company deposits 40% to 100% of the bank check amount into a restricted bank account, the bank then issues a bank check payable to a supplier in 180 days or less. The Company delivers the bank check as payment to the supplier, who can discount the bank check before its maturity. When the bank check reaches maturity, the bank takes the deposit in the restricted bank accounts and the balance, if any, from other bank account(s) that the Company has with the bank.  While the bank does not charge interest expenses on the balance, the bank pays interest on the deposit in the restricted bank account to the Company.  The bank generally charges 0.0005% of the bank check amount as service fee for issuance of the bank check.  Property, Plant and Equipment  Property, plant and equipment are carried at cost.  Maintenance, repairs and minor renewals are expensed as incurred; major renewals and improvements that extend the lives or increase the capacity of plant assets are capitalized.  When assets are retired or disposed of, the cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts, and any resulting gains or losses are included in income in the reporting period of disposition.  Depreciation is calculated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of the assets without residual value.  The percentages or depreciable life applied are:  Building and warehouses20 yearsMachinery and equipment7 to 10 yearsOffice equipment and furniture5 yearsMotor vehicles5 years  Land Use Right  All land belongs to the State in PRC.  Enterprises and individuals can pay the State a fee to obtain a right to use a piece of land for commercial purpose or residential purpose for an initial period of 50 years or 70 years, respectively.  The land use right can be sold, purchased, and exchanged in the market.  The successor owner of the land use right will reduce the amount of time which has been consumed by the predecessor owner.  The Company owns the right to use a piece of land, approximately 23 acre, located in the Wenyang County, Shandong Province for a fifty-year period ended December 2, 2055; and a piece of land, approximately 36 acre, also located in the Wenyang County, Shanxi Province for a forty-eight-year period ended June 5, 2054. The costs of these land use rights are amortized over their prospective beneficial period, using the straight-line method with no residual value.  The Company's production facilities and headquarters building are located in these two pieces of land.  Government Subsidies  The Company records government grants as current liabilities upon reception.  A government subsidy revenue is recognized only when there is reasonable assurance that the Company has complied with all conditions attached to the grant.  The Company recognized government subsidy of $171,885 for the nine months ended September 30, 2008.  The Company did not recognize government subsidy revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2007.  Research and Development Costs Research and development costs relating to the development of new products and processes, including significant improvements and refinements to existing products, are expensed when incurred. The major   13     components of these research and development costs include experimental materials and labor costs.  The Research and development cost was immaterial for the Company in the nine months ended September 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively, and was included into general and administration expenses.  Advertising Costs Advertising costs are expensed as incurred and included as part of selling and marketing expenses in accordance with the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants ("AICPA") Statement of Position 93-7, "Reporting for Adverting Costs".  Advertising costs was $33,695 and $176,655 for the nine months ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively.  Value-added Tax (VAT)  Sales revenue represents the invoiced value of goods, net of a value-added tax (VAT).  All of the Companys products that are sold in PRC are subject to a Chinese value-added tax at a rate of 17% of the gross sales price or at a rate approved by the Chinese local government.  This VAT may be offset by VAT paid on purchase of raw materials included in the cost of producing the finished goods.  Comprehensive Income  Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 130, Reporting Comprehensive Income, establishes standards for reporting and display of comprehensive income, its components and accumulated balances.  Comprehensive income as defined includes all changes in equity during a period from non-owner sources. Accumulated comprehensive income, as presented in the accompanying statements of changes in owners' equity consists of changes in unrealized gains and losses on foreign currency translation.  This comprehensive income is not included in the computation of income tax expense or benefit.  Segment Reporting  SFAS No. 131 Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information establishes standards for reporting information about operating segments on a basis consistent with the Companys internal organization structure as well as information about geographical areas, business segments and major customers in financial statements. The Company currently operates in one principal business segment.  Related parties  For the purposes of these financial statements, parties are considered to be related if one party has the ability, directly or indirectly, to control the party or exercise significant influence over the party in making financial and operating decisions, or vice versa, or where the Company and the party are subject to common control or common significant influence. Related parties may be individuals or other entities.  Pension and Employee Benefits  Full time employees of the PRC entities participate in a government mandated multi-employer defined contribution plan pursuant to which certain pension benefits, medical care, unemployment insurance, employee housing fund and other welfare benefits are provided to employees. Chinese labor regulations require the Company to accrue for these benefits based on certain percentages of the employees' salaries. The Management believes full time employees who have passed the probation period are entitled to such benefits.  The total provisions for such employee benefits was $55,643, and $65,454 for the nine months ended September 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively.  Statutory Reserves  Pursuant to the applicable laws in PRC, PRC entities are required to make appropriations to three non-distributable reserve funds, the statutory surplus reserve, statutory public welfare fund, and   14     discretionary surplus reserve, based on after-tax net earnings as determined in accordance with the PRC GAAP, after offsetting any prior years losses. Appropriation to the statutory surplus reserve should be at least 10% of the after-tax net earnings until the reserve is equal to 50% of the Company's registered capital.  Appropriation to the statutory public welfare fund is 5% to 10% of the after-tax net earnings.  The statutory public welfare fund is established for the purpose of providing employee facilities and other collective benefits to the employees and is non-distributable other than in liquidation.  Beginning from January 1, 2006, enterprise is no more required to make appropriation to the statutory public welfare fund. No appropriations to the discretionary surplus reserve are made at the discretion of the Board of Directors.  The Company makes appropriations to these three reserve funds at the fiscal year end pursuit to PRC GAAP.  Accordingly, the Company made no appropriations for the nine months ended September 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively.  Income Taxes The Company accounts for income tax using SFAS No. 109 Accounting for Income Taxes, which requires the asset and liability approach for financial accounting and reporting for income taxes. Under this approach, deferred income taxes are provided for the estimated future tax effects attributable to temporary differences between financial statement carrying amounts of assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases, and for the expected future tax benefits from loss carry-forwards and provisions, if any. Deferredtax assets and liabilities are measured using the enacted tax rates expected in the years of recovery or reversal and the effect from a change in tax rates is recognized in the statement of operations in the period of enactment. A valuation allowance is provided to reduce the amount of deferred tax assets if it is considered more likely than not that some portion of, or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.  The Company accounts for income taxes in interim periods as required by Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 28 "Interim Financial Reporting" and as interpreted by FASB Interpretation No. 18, "Accounting for Income Taxes in Interim Periods".  The Company has determined an estimated annual effect tax rate.  The rate will be revised, if necessary, as of the end of each successive interim period during the Company's fiscal year to its best current estimate.  The estimated annual effective tax rate is applied to the year-to-date ordinary income (or loss) at the end of the interim period.  Earnings (Loss) Per Share  The Company reports earnings per share in accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 128, Earnings Per Share. SFAS No. 128 requires presentation of basic and diluted earnings per share in conjunction with the disclosure of the methodology used in computing such earnings per share.  Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing income (loss) available to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period.  Diluted earnings per share is computed similar to basic earnings per share except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the potential common shares had been issued and if the additional common shares were dilutive.  There are no potentially dilutive securities outstanding (options and warrants) for the nine months ended September 30, 2007.  However, there are 350,000 shares of warrants issued and outstanding as of September 30, 2008, as more fully disclosed in Note 17.  Recent Accounting Pronouncements  On June 2008, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued FSP No. EITF 03-6-1, Determining Whether Instruments Granted in Share-Based Payment Transactions Are Participating Securities (FSP EITF 03-6-1). FSP EITF 03-6-1 concludes that unvested share-based payment awards that contain rights to receive non-forfeitable dividends or dividend equivalents are participating securities, and thus, should be included in the two-class method of computing earnings per share (EPS). FSP EITF 03-6-1 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008, and interim periods within those years. Early application of EITF 03-6-1 is prohibited. It also requires that all prior-period EPS data be adjusted retrospectively. We have not yet determined the effect, if any, of the adoption of this statement on   15     our financial condition or results of operations.  In April 2008, the FASB issued Staff Position FAS 142-3, Determination of the Useful Life of Intangible Assets (FSP FAS 142-3) which amends the factors an entity should consider in developing renewal or extension assumptions used to determine the useful life of a recognized intangible asset under FAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets (FAS No. 142). FSP FAS 142-3 applies to intangible assets that are acquired individually or with a group of assets and intangible assets acquired in both business combinations and asset acquisitions. It removes a provision under FAS No. 142, requiring an entity to consider whether a contractual renewal or extension clause can be accomplished without substantial cost or material modifications of the existing terms and conditions associated with the asset. Instead, FSP FAS 142-3 requires that an entity consider its own experience in renewing similar arrangements. An entity would consider market participant assumptions regarding renewal if no such relevant experience exists. FSP FAS 142-3 is effective for year ends beginning after December 15, 2008 with early adoption prohibited. We have not yet determined the effect, if any, of the adoption of this statement on our financial condition or results of operations.  In March 2008, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 161, Disclosures about Derivative Hedging Instruments and Hedging Activities  an amendment of FASB Statement No. 133 (SFAS 161). SFAS 161, which is effective January 1, 2009, requires enhanced qualitative and quantitative disclosures with respect to derivatives and hedging activities.  The Management does not expect that the adoption of SFAS No. 161 would have a material effect on the Companys financial position and results of operations.  In December 2007, the FASB issued Statements of Financial Accounting Standards No. 141 (revised 2007), Business Combinations (SFAS 141R) and No. 160, Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements  an amendment to ARB No. 51 (SFAS 160).  Both SFAS 141R and SFAS 160 are to be adopted effective January 1, 2009.  SFAS 141R requires the application of several new or modified accounting concepts that, due to their complexity, could introduce a degree of volatility in periods subsequent to a material business combination.  SFAS 141R requires that all business combinations result in assets and liabilities acquired being recorded at their fair value, with limited exceptions.  Other areas related to business combinations that will require changes from current GAAP include:  contingent consideration, acquisition costs, contingencies, restructuring costs, in process research and development and income taxes, among others.  SFAS 160 will primarily impact the presentation of minority or noncontrolling interests within the Balance Sheet and Statement of Operations as well as the accounting for transactions with noncontrolling interest holders. Management does not expect that the adoption of SFAS No. 141 (revised 2007) and SFAS No. 160 would have a material effect on the Companys financial position and results of operations.

After the work is finished, they will submit expense reports with supporting documents to the accounting department. Then, the expenses are debited into the relevant accounts and the advances are credited out. Cash flows from these activities are classified as cash flows from operating activities.  Due from a related party  Due from a related party" represents loans to Shandong Ruitai Chemicals Co., Ltd. ("Shandong Ruitai"), then a majority owner of TaiAn.  Shandong Ruitai had owned 75% equity ownership interest of TaiAn January 2000 through February 2007.   On March 20, 2007, Shandong sold 74% equity ownership interest of TaiAn to Pacific Capital Group Co., Ltd.  Mr. Xingfu Lv, our President, and Mr. Dianming Ma, our CEO, collectively own 100% of equity ownership interest in Shandong Ruitai.  TaiAn has been extending loans to Shangdong Ruitai and the balance amounted to $14,829,593 as of December 31, 2007.  These loans were unsecured, non-interest bearing and have no fixed terms of repayment, therefore, deemed payable on demand.  Cash flows from due from a shareholder are classified as cash flows from investing activities.   The Managements evaluates the financial resources of the borrower on a regular basis, to make sure Shandong Ruitai has the capability to pay back these loans.  As TaiAn became the only operating subsidiary of a public company, TaiAn signed loan agreement with Shangdong Ruitai in December 2007.  Pursuant to the loan agreement, Shangdong will pay 7 interest on the outstanding balance monthly.  The Management believes that the interest rate approximates the fair market interest rate as compared to the Company's bank loans.  Shandong Ruitai pledges its power plant as collateral for the loans and Mr. Lv and Mr. Ma guarantee the loans.  Also, Shandong Ruitai will gradually pay off these loans in a three-year period ended December 31, 2010, with 30% in 2008, 30% in 2009, and the rest of 40% in 2010.  The following is a summary of due from Shandong Ruitai:  September 30,December 31,20082007(unaudited)Due from Shangdong Ruitai-current portion$11,712,980$4,448,878Due from Shangdong Ruitai-long-term portion10,380,71510,380,715Total due from Shandong Ruitai$22,093,695$14,829,593  Imputed interest income recognized from due from Shangdong Ruitai amounted to $813,657 and $0 for the nine months ended September 30, 2008 and 2007.  Due to employees  Due to Employees represents loans from employees to finance the Companys operations due to a lack of cash resources.   There are no formal loan agreements for these loans, therefore, these loans were unsecured, and have no fixed terms of repayment.  The employees can inject or withdraw funds as they wish.  The Company pays 6 interest on these loans monthly beginning from July 1, 2007.  Cash flows from these activities are classified as cash flows from financing activities.  The Company paid interest of $112,272 and $18,507 for the nine months ended September 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively.    21     Land use right transaction  On October 25, 2006, the Company purchase the use right of a piece of land, approximately 36 acre, located in Wenyang County, Shandong Province, from its majority shareholder, Shandong Ruitai, for $3,352,840.  The local government approved the transaction and certified that the purchase price is at the fair market value.  The consideration has been paid to the seller, and the title transferal is under going.  The Management believes the transaction is on terms no less favorable to the Company than those reasonably obtainable from third parties.  Note 15- PRC INCOME TAX  The Companys operating subsidiary, TaiAn, is governed by the Income Tax Law of PRC concerning Foreign Investment Enterprises and Foreign Enterprises and various local income tax laws ("the Income Tax Laws").  Beginning January 1, 2008, the new Enterprise Income Tax (EIT) law has replaced the old laws for Domestic Enterprises (DES) and Foreign Invested Enterprises (FIEs).  The key changes are:  a. The new standard EIT rate of 25% replaces the 33% rate applicable to both DES and FIEs, except for High Tech companies that pay a reduced rate of 15%;  b. Companies established before March 16, 2007 continue to enjoy tax holiday treatment approved by local government for a grace period of either for the next 5 years or until the tax holiday term is completed, whichever is sooner.  In addition, the new EIT also grants tax holidays to entities operating in certain beneficial industries, such as the agriculture, fishing, and environmental protection. Entities in beneficial industries enjoy a three-year period tax exempt and a three-year period with 50% reduction in the income tax rates.  The Companys operating subsidiary, TaiAn, is subject to effective income tax rate of 25% beginning from January 1, 2008.

From a practical standpoint, certain environmental contamination cannot be reasonably determined until a facility or asset is retired or an event occurs that otherwise requires the facility to be tested and monitored. In the absence of such requirements to test for environmental contamination prior to an asset or facility retirement, the Company has concluded that it cannot reasonably estimate the cost associated with such environmental-related asset retirement obligations (ARO).  In addition, the Company anticipates operating its manufacturing facilities indefinitely into the future thereby rendering the potential range of settlement dates as indeterminate.  Therefore, the Company has not recorded any AROs to recognize legal obligations associated with the retirement of tangible long-lived assets, as contemplated by the Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 143, Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations (SFAS 143) and FASB Interpretation No. 47, Accounting for Conditional Asset Retirement Obligations - an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 143 (FIN 47).   Note 20- COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES  PRC's political and economic system  The Company faces a number of risks and challenges not typically associated with companies in North America and Western Europe, since its assets exist solely in the PRC, and its revenues are derived from its operations therein.  The PRC is a developing country with an early stage market economic system, overshadowed by the state.  Its political and economic systems are very different from the more developed countries and are in a state of change.  The PRC also faces many social, economic and political challenges that may produce major shocks and instabilities and even crises, in both its domestic arena and in its relationships with other countries, including the United States.  Such shocks, instabilities and crises may in turn significantly and negatively affect the Company's performance.  Environmental  In the ordinary course of its business, the Company is subject to numerous environmental laws and regulations covering compliance matters or imposing liability for the costs of, and damages resulting from, cleaning up sites, past spills, disposals and other releases of hazardous substances.  Currently, our environmental compliance costs principally include the costs to run our waste water treatment facility and routine inspection fees paid to the local environmental department.  These amounts are immaterial to our operating costs.  However, changes in these laws and regulations may significantly increase our environmental compliance costs and therefore have a material adverse effect on the Companys financial position and results of operations.  Also, any failure by the Company to adequately comply with such laws and regulations could subject the Company to significant future liabilities.   26      Governmental control of currency conversion  The PRC government imposes controls on the convertibility of Renminbi into foreign currencies and, in certain cases, the remittance of currency out of the PRC. The Company receives most of its revenues in Renminbi, which is currently not a freely convertible currency. Shortages in the availability of foreign currency may restrict the Companys ability to remit sufficient foreign currency to satisfy foreign currency dominated obligations.  Under existing PRC foreign exchange regulations, payments of current account items, including profit distributions, interest payments and expenditures from the transaction, can be made in foreign currencies without prior approval from the PRC State Administration of Foreign Exchange by complying with certain procedural requirements. However, approval from appropriate governmental authorities is required where Renminbi is to be converted into foreign currency and remitted out of China to pay capital expenses such as the repayment of bank loans denominated in foreign currencies.  The PRC government may also at its discretion restrict access in the future to foreign currencies for current account transactions. If the foreign exchange control system prevents the Company from obtaining sufficient foreign currency to satisfy its currency demands, the Company may not be able to pay certain of its expenses as they come due.  Contingent liabilities  Prior to the merger with Pacific Capital Group on November 8, 2007, the Company has not been active since discontinuing its real estate operations in 1981.  Management believes that there are no valid outstanding liabilities from prior operations. If a creditor were to come forward and claim a liability, the Company has committed to contest such claim to the fullest extent of the law.  No amount has been accrued in the financial statements for this contingent liability.  Guaranteed Loans  The Company has guaranteed certain loans for third-party enterprises, which, in turn, have guaranteed loans for the Company.  These guarantees require payment from the Company in the event of default on payment by the respective debtor and, if the debtor defaults, the Company may be required to pay amounts outstanding under the related agreements in addition to the principal amount guaranteed, including accrued interest and related fees.  The Company and these third-party enterprises have been guaranteeing loans for each other in the day-to-day operation.  Both these enterprises and the Company are considered good reputation debtors by local banks. The banks allow these companies guarantee loans for each other instead of requiring the loans be secured by collateral.  None of the enterprises, for which the Company has guaranteed loans, has defaulted on any loan repayments, and accordingly, the Company has not recorded any liabilities or losses on such guarantees.  Bank loans that the Company has guaranteed for third-party enterprises consist of the following as of September 30, 2008:  LoanMonthlyGuaranteedBorrowerFinancial InstitutionsAmountDurationInterest RateByShangdong Lulong Group Co., Ltd.Feicheng Branch of Agriculture Bank$1,367,20011/23/2007-

Generally, these companies deposit 40% to 100% of the bank check amount into a restricted bank account, the bank then issues a bank check to these companies or their assignees.  The Company guaranteed on the balance of the bank check amounts.  These guarantees require payment from the Company in the event of default on payment by the respective debtor and, if the debtor defaults, the Company may be required to pay amounts outstanding under the related agreements in addition to the amount guaranteed, including accrued interest and related fees.  Both these enterprises and the Company are considered good reputation debtors by local banks.

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the Financial Statements and related Notes appearing elsewhere in this Form 10-Q.  Results of Operations for the Three Month Period Ended September 30, 2008 Compared to the Three Month Period Ended September 30, 2007  Revenue  Revenue.  During the three month period ended September 30, 2008, the Company had revenues of $12,716,798 as compared to revenues of $12,474,708 during the three month period ended September 30, 2007, an increase of $242,090, or approximately 1.9%.  This minor increase is primarily attributable to the increase in the exchange rate of the Renminbi (RMB), which increased from RMB 7.57 to $1.00 USD for the three months ended September 30, 2007 to RMB 6.85 to $1.00 USD in the same period in 2008.  Additionally, During the three month period ended September 30, 2008, the Company sold approximately 2,047 metric tons of cellulose ether products in 10 categories, as compared to 2,497 metric tons of cellulose ether products in 11 categories during the three month period ended September 30, 2007.  Additionally, during the three month period ended September 30, 2008, HPMC continued to be the Companys best-selling product accounting for approximately 82.9% of the Companys total revenues.  Cost of Sales.  During the three month period ended September 30, 2008, the Companys cost of sales was $8,678,426, as compared to cost of sales of $9,702,507 for the three month period ended September 30, 2007, a decrease of $1,024,081, or approximately 10.6%. This decrease in cost of sales experienced by the Company was primarily attributable to a decrease in the sales volumes as mentioned above.  Operating Expenses   30      The operating expenses for the Company are divided into Selling Expenses and General and Administrative Expenses, both of which are discussed below:  Selling Expenses.  Selling expenses which consist of sales commission, freight charges, advertising and promotion expenses totaled $503,468 for the three month period ended September 30, 2008, as compared to $695,950 for the three month period ended September 30, 2007, a decrease of $192,482, or approximately 27.6%.  This decrease is primarily attributable to the decrease in adverting expenses.  General and Administrative Expenses.  General and administrative expenses totaled $716,383 for the three month period ended September 30, 2008, as compared to $706,086 for the three month period ended September 30, 2007, a decrease of $10,297 or approximately 1.5%.  This decrease is primarily attributable to a decrease in office expenses, and offset by an increase in consultant fees.  Income From Operations  For the three month period ended September 30, 2008, the Company had income from operations in the amount of $2,818,521 as compared to income from operations of $1,370,165 for the three month period ended September 30, 2007, an increase of $1,448,356, or approximately 105.8%.  The increase in income from operations experienced by the Company was primarily attributable to an increase in gross profit as we focused on increasing sales of higher margin products and sales to export markets. During the three month period ended September 30, 2008, the Company exported approximately 668 metric tons of cellulose ether products to markets in the United States, Europe, India, Japan, and South East Asia, as compared to 364 metric tons in exports during the three month period ended September 30, 2007.

The increase in interest expense incurred by the Company resulted from an increase in interest expenses on bank loans and increases in interest expenses on discount on bank checks. The interest expenses on bank loans increased from $340,498 in the nine months ended September 30, 2007 to $492,181, an increase of $151,683.

The interest expenses on discount on bank checks increased as we needed additional cash resources for our business operations.  Net Income  The Company had a net income of $1,657,847 for the three month period ended September 30, 2008 as compared to $707,000 for the three month period ended September 30, 2007, an increase of $950,847 or approximately 134.5%.  The increase in net income is attributable to an increase in gross profit as we focused on increasing sales of higher margin products and sales to export markets.

The increase in revenue experienced by the Company was primarily attributable to the following factors:  i) Increase in Sales Price - For the nine month period ended September 30, 2008, the average sales price of one ton of cellulose ether was $6,120, as compared to an average sales price of $4,864 per ton for the nine month period ended September 30, 2007, an increase of $1,256 per ton, or approximately 25%.  During the nine month period ended September 30, 2008, the Company sold approximately 5,093 metric tons of cellulose ether products in 11 categories, as compared to 5,698 metric tons of cellulose ether products in 11 categories during the nine month period ended September 30, 2007.  HPMC continued to be the Companys best-selling product accounting for approximately 78.6% of the Companys total revenues during the nine month period ended September 30, 2008.  During the nine month period ended September 30, 2008, the Company exported approximately 1,527 metric tons of cellulose ether products to markets in the United States, Europe, India, Japan, and South East Asia, as compared to 955 metric tons in exports during the nine month period ended September 30, 2007, an increase of 572 metric tons; and  ii) Changes in Exchange Rates  the RMB exchange rate increased from 7.68 RMB to $1.00 USD in the nine months ended September 30, 2007 to 7.00 RMB to $1.00 USD in the nine months ended September 30, 2008, an increase of approximately 8.9%.  Cost of Sales.  During the nine month period ended September 30, 2008, the Companys cost of sales was $22,174,756, as compared to cost of sales of $20,255,655 for the nine month period ended September 30, 2007, an increaseof $1,919,101, or approximately 9.5%. This increase in cost of sales was primarily attributable to an increase in the RMB exchange rate as mentioned above.  Operating Expenses  The operating expenses for the Company are divided into Selling Expenses and General and Administrative Expenses, both of which are discussed below:  Selling Expenses.  Selling expenses which consist of sales commission, freight charges, advertising and promotion expenses totaled $1,367,280 for the nine month period ended September 30, 2008, as compared to $1,693,321 for the nine month period ended September 30, 2007, a decrease of $326,041, or approximately 19.2%.  This decrease is primarily attributable to the decrease of 142,960 in the traveling expenses and a decreased of $133,781 in adverting expenses.  General and Administrative Expenses.  General and administrative expenses totaled $2,083,067 for the nine month period ended September 30, 2008, as compared to $1,283,995 for the nine month period ended September 30, 2007, an increase of $799,072 or approximately 62.2%.  This increase is primarily attributable to an increase in payroll and consultant fees.  The payroll increased from $196,924 for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 to $392,549 for the nine months ended September 30, 2008, an increase of $195,625, or approximately 99%, due to the increase in pay rate.  We engaged two consultants to act as our investor relations advisor and investment banker for our financial activities. The consultant fees that we incurred in the nine months ended September 30, 2008 amounted to $455,122, which did not include the consultants out-of-pocket expenses,  Income From Operations  For the nine month period ended September 30, 2008, the Company had income from operations in the amount of $6,337,634 as compared to income from operations of $5,830,200 for the nine month period ended September 30, 2007, an increase of $507,434, or approximately 8.7%.  The increasein income from   32     operations was primarily attributable to the increase in RMB exchange rate and sales price.  Interest Expense  For the nine month period ended September 30, 2008, the Company incurred interest expense in the amount of $2,234,495, as compared to interest expense of $1,111,787 for the nine month period ended September 30, 2007, an increase of $1,122,708, or approximately 101.0%. The increase in interest expense incurred by the Company resulted from increase in interest expenses on bank loans and discount on bank checks received from customers.  The interest expenses on bank loans increased by $559,880, which was primarily a result of an increase of interest rates and average outstanding bank loans.  The interest rate increased from an average monthly interest rate of 6.98% for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 to an average monthly interest rate of 8.10% for the nine months ended September 30, 2008, an increase of approximately 1.12%.  Our average outstanding bank loans increased from $17,571,621 for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 to $22,552,446 for the nine months ended September 30, 2008, an increase of $4,517,586.  Our interest expenses on discount on bank checks increased from $300,586 in the nine months ended September 30, 2007 to $851,771 in the nine months ended September 30, 2008, an increase of $551,185.  The increase in our interest expenses was due to the increase in amount of bank checks discounted as we needed additional cash resources for our business operations.  Net Income The Company had a net income of $3,908,463 for the nine month period ended September 30, 2008 as compared to $3,455,579 for the nine month period ended September 30, 2007, an increase of $452,884 or approximately 13.1%.  The increase in net income is attributable to the increase in sales price and the change in the RMB exchange rate.  Liquidity and Capital Resources  Total Current Assets & Total Assets  As of September 30, 2008, our unaudited balance sheet  reflects that we have: i) total current assets of $59,950,021, as compared to total current assets of $37,787,747 at December 31, 2007, an increase of $22,162,274 or approximately 58.6%; and ii) total assets of $89,444,825, as of September 30, 2008, compared to $65,165,337 as of December 31, 2007, an increase of $24,279,488 or approximately 37.2%    The Companys total assets increased substantially due to increases that the Company experienced in cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, inventory, restricted cash, and property and equipment, all of which are discussed below.  Cash and Cash Equivalents.  As of September 30, 2008, our unaudited balance sheet reflects that we have cash and cash equivalents of $4,594,347, as compared to $4,166,713 at December 31, 2007, an increase of $427,634, approximately 10.3%.

The increasein the Companys accounts receivable in 2008 was primarily attributable to the fact that we experienced an increase in our client base and we extended credit to our new clients.  Inventory. As of September 30, 2008, the Company had Inventories of $8,609,951, as compared to inventories of $6,656,028 as of December 31, 2007, an increaseof $1,953,923 or approximately 29.4%. The increasein inventories from 2007 to 2008 was attributable to the occasional lack of the required power   33     to operate our production facilities, we had to cease production periodically every month.  As a result, we increased our inventory of raw materials by approximately 518 tons, or $1,832,352 in work-in-progress.  The occasional power outages were the result of energy restrictions imposed by the Chinese government to avoid power outages during the Olympic Games.  When the restrictions were gradually lifted after the Olympic Games, we reduced our work-in-progress to 281 tons at the end of October 2008.  Restricted Cash. As of September 30, 2008, the Company had Restricted Cash of $22,815,131 as compared to Restricted Cash of $14,738,564 as of December 31, 2007, an increaseof $8,076,567, or approximately 54.8%. The increase in Restricted Cash was primarily attributable to the increase in the bank checks and commercial paper that we took out from banks.  Additionally, the banks required more compensation balance to secure such financial instruments.  Property and Equipment. As of September 30, 2008, our unaudited balance sheet reflects that we have property and equipment of $13,115,405, as compared to property and equipment of $11,306,271 at December 31, 2007, an increaseof $1,809,134, or approximately 16.0%.  The increasein the Companys property and equipment in 2008 was primarily attributable to additions made to our production equipment and changes in the foreign exchange rate, which increased from 7.31 RMB to $1.00 USD as of December 31, 2007 to 6.85 RMB to $1.00 USD as of September 30, 2008, or an increase of RMB 0.46, or approximately 6.7%.

These amounts represent loans to Shandong Ruitai Chemicals Co., Ltd. which until March, 2007, was a majority owner of TaiAn.  Prior to making these loans, the Management evaluated the financial resources of the related party, Shandong Ruitai Chemicals Co., Ltd.  As TaiAn became an operating subsidiary of the Company, TaiAn signed a Loan Agreement with Shandong Ruitai Chemicals Co., Ltd. in December 2007, a copy of which was filed as Exhibit 10.7 to the Companys Form 10-KSB for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2007, filed with the SEC on April 15, 2008, and hereby incorporated by reference.  Pursuant to the terms of the Loan Agreement, Shandong Ruitai Chemicals Co., Ltd. is required to pay 7 interest on the outstanding balance monthly.  The Management believes that the interest rate approximates the fair market interest rate as compared to the Company's bank loans.  Additionally, Shandong Ruitai pledged its power plant as collateral for the loans and Mr. Lv, our President, and Mr. Ma, our Chief Executive Officer, have both guaranteed the repayment of the loans.  Pursuant to the terms of the Loan Agreement, Shandong Ruitai will gradually pay off these loans in a three-year period ended December 31, 2010, with 30% in 2008, 30% in 2009, and the rest of 40% in 2010.
