TRANS-INDIA ACQUISITION CORPORATION

(a corporation in the development stage)

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

1. ORGANIZATION, BUSINESS OPERATIONS AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Nature of Operations

Trans-India Acquisition Corporation (the “Company”) was incorporated in Delaware on April 13, 2006 as a blank check company formed to acquire, through merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition or other similar business combination, one or more businesses with primary operations in India.

The registration statement for the Company’s initial public offering (the “Public Offering”) was declared effective on February 8, 2007. The Company completed private placements (the “Private Placements”) on February 14, 2007 and received proceeds of $1,600,000. The Company consummated the Public Offering on February 14, 2007 and received net proceeds of $88,479,772. The Company’s management has broad discretion with respect to the specific application of the net proceeds of the Private Placements and the Public Offering (collectively the “Offerings”) (as described in Note 2), although substantially all of the net proceeds of the Offerings are intended to be generally applied toward consummating a business combination with a target company. As used herein, a “target business” shall include an operating business in the life sciences sector of the Indian economy and a “business combination” shall mean the acquisition by the Company of a target business.

Of the proceeds of the Offerings, $89,930,004 was deposited in a trust account (“Trust Account”) and invested until the earlier of (i) the consummation of the first business combination or (ii) the distribution of the Trust Account as described below. The amount in the Trust Account includes $3,680,000 of contingent underwriting discounts and expenses (the “Discount”) which will be paid to the underwriters, together with accrued interest thereon, if a business combination is consummated, but which will be forfeited in part if public stockholders elect to have their shares converted for cash if a business combination is not consummated.

The Company, after signing a definitive agreement for the acquisition of a target business, will submit such transaction for stockholder approval. In the event that stockholders owning 25% or more of the outstanding stock, excluding for this purpose those persons who were stockholders prior to the Public Offering, vote against the business combination, the business combination will not be consummated. All the Company’s stockholders prior to the Public Offering, including all of the officers and directors of the Company (“Initial Stockholders”), have agreed to vote their 2,700,000 founding shares of common stock (including the 200,000 shares issued in the Private Placements) in accordance with the vote of the majority of all other stockholders of the Company (“Public Stockholders”) with respect to any business combination. After consummation of the Company’s first business combination, these voting obligations will terminate.

With respect to the first business combination which is approved and consummated, any Public Stockholder who voted against the business combination may elect to convert his, her or its shares into cash. Accordingly, Public Stockholders holding 24.99% of the aggregate number of shares owned by all Public Stockholders may seek conversion of their shares in the event of a business combination. Such converting Public Stockholders would be entitled to receive their pro rata share of the net offering proceeds in the Trust Account calculated as of the record date for determination of stockholders entitled to vote on the proposed combination, including interest accrued thereon, net of taxes, less up to $2,300,000 of interest that may be released to the Company to fund working capital, plus the Discount and plus the proceeds of the Private Placements, computed without regard to the shares held by Initial Stockholders.

In the event that the Company does not consummate a business combination within 18 months of February 14, 2007, or 24 months if certain extension criteria have been satisfied, the net proceeds held in the Trust Account, including the Discount and accrued interest thereon, will be distributed to the Company’s Public Stockholders. The Initial Stockholders have waived their rights to receive distributions upon the Company’s liquidation with respect to all shares owned by them prior to the Public Offering, including the shares acquired in the Private Placement. In the event of liquidation, it is likely that the per share value of the residual assets remaining available for distribution (including Trust Account assets) will be less than the initial public offering price per share in the Public Offering (assuming no value is attributed to the Warrants contained in the Units (as defined below) offered in the Public Offering, as discussed in Note 2). As discussed in Note 10, the Company has entered into an exclusive non-binding letter of intent, which satisfied the extension criteria to 24 months following the closing of the Public Offering.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

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

Income Per Common Share

Basic income per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share gives effect to the dilutive options, warrants and other potential common stock outstanding during the period.

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company has adopted Financial Accounting Statement No. 123R “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation”. The Company uses the fair value method of valuing stock-based compensation awards.

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

Cash Concentration of Credit Risk

The Company maintains cash balances with financial institutions, which, at times, may exceed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation limit. The Company has not experienced any losses to date as a result of this policy, and management believes there is little risk of loss.

 

2. OFFERINGS

Public Offering

On February 14, 2007, the Company sold 11,500,000 Units (“Units”) (including the underwriters’ over-allotment option of 1,500,000 Units) to the public at a price of $8.00 per Unit. Each Unit consists of one share of the Company’s common stock, $0.0001 par value (“Common Stock”), and one redeemable common stock purchase warrant (“Warrant”). Each Warrant entitles the holder to purchase from the Company one share of Common Stock at an exercise price of $5.00 commencing the later of the completion of a business combination with a target business or February 8, 2008 and expiring February 8, 2012. The Warrants are redeemable at a price of $.01 per Warrant upon 30 days notice after the Warrants become exercisable, only in the event that the last sale price of the Common Stock is at least $11.50 per share for any 20 trading days within a 30 trading day period ending three business days before we send the notice of redemption.

Private Placements

On February 14, 2007, the Company sold to its officers and directors and their affiliates, its special advisor and Trans-India Investors Limited an aggregate of 200,000 Units at a price of $8.00 per Unit. These private placement units are identical to the Units sold in the Public Offering except that they do not have any conversion rights or rights to any liquidation distributions in the event the Company fails to consummate a business combination.

4. NOTES PAYABLE TO STOCKHOLDERS AND MANAGEMENT

The Company entered into a loan agreement with certain stockholders and members of management to borrow up to $400,000 by issuing unsecured promissory notes to cover expenses related to the Offerings. The notes bore interest at the rate of 5% per annum. The Company borrowed $204,870 under the notes, including accrued interest of $4,450. On February 27, 2007, the Company repaid the notes in full.

 

5. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Consultants

On April 18, 2007, the Company entered into an agreement with Ernst & Young Pvt. Ltd. to provide finance and acquisition advisory services to the Company. The agreement expires on the later of 12 months from its effective date or the date on which the Company concludes an acquisition, subject to automatic 6-month extensions unless terminated by either party. The agreement required the Company to pay to Ernst & Young a retainer of approximately $20,000 upon the Company’s presentation of a term sheet for the acquisition of a target company generated by Ernst & Young, and a success fee on the closing of the Company’s acquisition of or investment in a target company generated by Ernst & Young. In addition, the Company was required to pay Ernst & Young’s reasonable out-of-pocket costs incurred in its engagement on behalf of the Company. The Company terminated this agreement on August 12, 2008. No amounts remain outstanding to Ernst & Young.

On February 8, 2008, the Company entered into an agreement with JMP Securities LLC to provide finance and advisory services to the Company.

The agreement requires the Company to pay to JMP Securities a success fee on the consummation or the closing of the Company’s acquisition of or merger of the Company with a target company generated by JMP Securities or the consummation of the Company’s acquisition of a minority interest in a target company or upon the Company’s presentation of a definitive agreement or an agreement in principle for an acquisition of a minority interest in a target company generated by JMP Securities during the term of the agreement or at any time prior to one (1) year following its expiration or earlier termination on a sliding fee scale depending on the size of the acquisition or investment, subject to a maximum of 2% of the transaction’s value and a minimum fee of $1,000,000. In addition, the Company is required to reimburse JMP Securities’ reasonable out-of-pocket costs incurred in its engagement on behalf of the Company.

On June 30, 2008, the Company entered into an agreement with VS Infrastructure Inc. to provide to the Company consulting services in connection with the proposed business combination. The agreement terminates on the earliest of (i) February 14, 2009, (ii) consummation of the proposed business combination, (iii) the termination of the agreement by VS Infrastructure, or (iv) mutual agreement of the parties. As consideration for the consulting services to be provided to the Company, the Company has agreed to pay to VS Infrastructure a finders and consulting fee in the amount of $4,000,000 and to use its best efforts to arrange with the initial stockholders of the Company to transfer 250,000 of their shares of common stock of the Company to VS Infrastructure on the closing. In addition, the Company is required to reimburse VS Infrastructure for all pre-authorized accountable expenses incurred in related to the transaction after the target signs a definitive agreement with the Company. VS Infrastructure has agreed to use the fee in the amount of $4,000,000 to purchase shares of common stock from the Company’s public stockholders at closing in support of the contemplated transaction.

Option to Purchase Units

The Company, on February 14, 2007, sold to the representatives of the underwriters, for an aggregate of $100, an option to purchase up to a total of 500,000 Units. The Units issuable upon exercise of this option are identical to those sold in Public Offer, except the Unit price is 125% of the price of the Units sold in the Public Offering. This option is exercisable at $10.00 per Unit commencing on the later of the consummation of a business combination or one year from February 8, 2007 and expires on February 8, 2012. The option and the 500,000 Units, the 500,000 shares of Common Stock and the 500,000 warrants that are a part of such units, and the 500,000 shares of Common Stock underlying such Warrants, have been deemed compensation by the National Association of Securities Dealers (“NASD”) and are therefore subject to a 180-day lock-up pursuant to Rule 27110(g)(l) of the NASD Conduct Rules. Additionally, the option may not be sold, transferred, assigned, pledged or hypothecated for a one-year period (including the foregoing 180-day period) following February 8, 2007. However, the option may be transferred to any underwriter and selected dealer who participated in the Public Offering and their bona fide officers or partners. The Company will account for this purchase option as a cost of raising capital and will include the instrument as equity in our financial statements. Accordingly, there will be no net impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations, except for the recording of the $100 proceeds from the sale. The Company has estimated that the fair value of the purchase option on the date of sale is approximately $5.89 per Unit, using an expected life of five (5) years, volatility of 100%, and a risk-free rate of 5%. However, because the Company’s Units did not have a trading history, the volatility assumption was based on information of comparable companies. Although an expected life of five years was used in the calculation, if the Company does not consummate a business combination within the prescribed time period and it liquidates, the option will become worthless.

Potential Commission to Purchase Warrants

The Company has engaged I-Bankers Securities, Inc. and CRT Capital Group LLC (the “Representatives”), on a non-exclusive basis, as its agent for the solicitation of the exercise of the Warrants. To the extent not inconsistent with the guidelines of the NASD and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission, the Company has agreed to pay the Representatives for bona fide services rendered, a commission equal to 5% of the exercise price for each Warrant exercised more than one year after the date of consummation of a business transaction if the exercise was solicited by the Representatives. In addition to soliciting, either orally or in writing, the exercise of the Warrants, the Representatives’ services may also include disseminating information, either orally or in writing to Warrant holders about the Company or the market for the Company’s securities, and assisting in the processing of the exercise of the Warrants. No compensation will be paid to the Representatives upon the exercise of the Warrants if:

 

   

the market price of the underlying shares of Common Stock is lower than the exercise price;

 

   

the holder of the Warrants has not confirmed in writing that a Representative solicited the exercise;

 

   

the Warrants are held in a discretionary account;

 

   

the Warrants are exercised in an unsolicited transaction; or

 

   

the arrangement to pay the commission is not disclosed in the prospectus provided to Warrant holders at the time of exercise.

 

6. COMMON STOCK RESERVED FOR ISSUANCE

At June 30, 2008, 11,700,000 shares of common stock were reserved for issuance upon exercise of redeemable Warrants.

 

7. PREFERRED STOCK

The Company is authorized to issue 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock with such designations, voting and other rights and preferences, as may be determined from time to time by the Board of Directors.

In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as “may”, “will”, “should”, “expect”, “plan”, “anticipate”, “believe”, “estimate”, “predict”, “potential”, “continue” or the negative of these terms or other comparable terminology. These forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, the statements regarding: our ability to complete a business combination with one or more target businesses; our potential inability to obtain additional financing to complete a business combination; liquidation if no business combination occurs; potential change in control if we acquire one or more target businesses for stock; interest to be earned on the trust account; uses of our working capital; and risks associated with operations in India. In evaluating these statements, you should specifically consider various factors, including the risks outlined under “Risk Factors” included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2007. All forward-looking statements included in this document are based on information available to us on the date hereof, and we assume no obligation to revise or publicly release the results of any revision to any such forward-looking statement, except as may otherwise be required by law.

The following discussion of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and related notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2007, and the unaudited financial statements and related notes included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Overview

We were formed on April 13, 2006, to serve as a vehicle to effect a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition or other similar business combination in the life sciences sector in India. Our management will make the determination that a target business has operations primarily in India by considering the locations of the physical operations, management and other employees, the principal executive offices and other physical establishments. The initial business combination must be a transaction with one or more operating businesses having primary business operations located in India and in which the collective fair market value of the target business, at the time of the business combination, is at least 80% of our net assets (exclusive of the deferred underwriting discounts and commissions) at the time of the business combination. Our initial business combination may involve the simultaneous acquisition or merger of more than one target business.

We have neither engaged in any operations nor generated any revenues through February 14, 2007, the date we consummated our initial public offering. Our entire activity since inception through February 14, 2007 has been related to our formation and our initial public offering. Until July 11, 2008, the date we entered into an exclusive letter of intent relating to a business combination with a target company with business operations primarily in India, our efforts had been limited to searching for prospective target businesses to acquire. We intend to utilize cash derived from the proceeds of our initial public offering, our capital stock, debt, or a combination of cash, capital stock and debt, in effecting a business combination.

On August 7, 2008, we issued a press release announcing that we had entered into an exclusive non-binding letter of intent to complete a business combination with a company having business operations primarily in India. Pursuant to the Company’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, the execution of the letter of intent affords us a six-month extension for completion of a business combination, until February 14, 2009.

The consummation of the business combination is subject to, among other things, completion of due diligence, board of directors approval, negotiation and execution of a definitive agreement, audit of the target financial statements in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles, required stockholder approval and the receipt of all required regulatory approvals. In addition, closing of the transaction is also conditioned on holders of fewer than 25% of the shares of the Company’s common stock voting against the transaction and electing to convert their shares of the Company’s common stock into cash. Pursuant to the letter of intent, the Company has an exclusive period of up to 40 days from entering into the letter of intent to negotiate and enter into a definitive agreement.

Due to regulatory and shareholder approvals as well as the additional conditions associated with the proposed transaction, we cannot assure stockholders and investors that we will enter into a definitive agreement and consummate a business combination within the allotted time. If we do not effect a business combination by February 14, 2009, we will be required to dissolve and liquidate.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We generated gross proceeds of $93,600,000 from the sale of the units in the initial public offering and the private placements. After deducting the underwriting discounts and commissions, non-accountable expense allowance and the offering expenses, the total net proceeds to us from the offering (including the underwriters’ over-allotment option) were $86,410,240, of which $86,250,004 was deposited into a trust account maintained by Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, acting as trustee, and the remaining proceeds of $160,240 became available to be used by us to provide for business, legal and accounting due diligence on prospective business combinations and continuing general and administrative expenses. Up to $2,300,000 of the interest earned on the trust account, net of taxes, may be released to us to fund our working capital requirements. In addition, $3,680,000, representing the deferred underwriting discounts and commissions and non-accountable expenses, were deposited into the trust account for a total of $89,930,004 deposited into the trust account (or $7.82 per unit sold in the public offering). The amounts deposited into the trust account remain on deposit in the trust account earning interest. The funds held in the trust account, other than the deferred underwriting discounts and commissions, may be used as consideration to pay the sellers of a target business with which we ultimately complete a business combination. Upon the consummation of a business combination, we will pay the deferred underwriting discounts and commissions and accrued interest thereon held in the trust account to the underwriters. Any amounts not paid as consideration to the sellers of the target business or to the underwriters as deferred underwriting discounts and commissions may be used to finance the operations of the target business.

As of June 30, 2008, we had cash not held in the trust account of $1,045,829. We will generate interest income on our cash outside of the trust account which can also be used to pay part of our costs and expenses. We will be using the funds not held in trust for identifying and evaluating prospective acquisition candidates, performing business due diligence on prospective target businesses, traveling to and from the offices of prospective target businesses, reviewing corporate documents and material agreements of prospective target businesses, selecting the target business to acquire and structuring, negotiating and consummating the business combination. Our cash requirements are expected to change based on the timing, nature and outcome of our intended business combination.

We are obligated to pay Johnson and Colmar, an affiliate of one of our directors, officers and stockholders, an administrative fee of $7,500 per month for office space and general and administrative services from February 8, 2007 through the consummation of a business combination. These services include those of Haigler Investments provided to Johnson and Colmar on our behalf, and in particular Cliff Haigler who was appointed as our Chief Financial Officer on June 15, 2007. At June 30, 2008, an aggregate of $123,750 has been paid.

We are obligated to pay up to $100,000, subject to adjustment, to Mercurius Advisory Services for various consulting services to us in connection with the proposed business combination prior to the closing. In addition, we are obligated to pay $24,000 to Technopak Advisors for professional services to us in connection with the proposed business combination prior to closing. Further, we are obligated to reimburse a number of finders and consultants for expenses incurred in connection with services provided to us prior to the closing of a business combination. We anticipate that we will incur significant additional legal and accounting expenses in connection with our efforts to complete a business combination. We have agreed to pay all of the expenses associated with the proposed business combination, other than the target’s direct legal expenses, subject to our agreement to reimburse up to $100,000 of legal expenses incurred in the United States by the target in the proposed business combination.

We believe that the funds available to us outside of the trust account will be sufficient to allow us to operate through February 14, 2009, assuming that a business combination is not consummated during that time. Approximately $2,300,000 of working capital over this time period has been funded from the interest earned from the funds held in the trust account. Over this period, we anticipate incurring expenses for the following purposes:

 

   

payment of premiums associated with our directors and officers liability insurance;

 

   

expenses for due diligence investigations of potential targets;

 

   

legal, accounting and other expenses relating to our SEC reporting obligations and general corporate matters;

 

   

legal, accounting, consulting and other expenses attendant to structuring and negotiating a business combination;

 

   

payment for administrative and support services; and

 

   

other miscellaneous expenses.

We do not believe we will need to raise additional funds following this offering in order to meet the expenditures required for operating our business. However, we may need to raise additional funds through a private offering of debt or equity securities if such funds are required to consummate a business combination that is presented to us. We would only consummate such a fund-raising simultaneously with the consummation of a business combination.

Critical Accounting Policies

We have identified the following as our critical accounting policies:

Cash and cash equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

 

15


Table of Contents

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, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Market risk is the sensitivity of income to changes in interest rates, foreign exchanges, commodity prices, equity prices, and other market-driven rates or prices. We are not presently engaged in, and if a suitable business target is not identified by us prior to the prescribed liquidation of the trust account we may not engage in, any substantive commercial business. Accordingly, the risks associated with foreign exchange rates, commodity prices, and equity prices are not significant. The net proceeds of our initial public offering not held in the trust fund and not immediately required for the purposes set forth above have been invested only in United States “government securities,” defined as any Treasury Bill issued by the United States having a maturity of 180 days or less, or in money market funds meeting certain conditions under Rule 2a-7 promulgated under the Investment Company Act of 1940. The interest received on such investments has remained relatively consistent and given our limited risk in our exposure to U.S. Treasury Bills and such money market funds, we do not view the interest rate risk to be significant. We do not enter into derivatives or other financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes.

 

Item 4T. Controls and Procedures

Our management evaluated, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that information we are required to disclose in reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (1) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms, and (2) is accumulated and communicated to Trans-India Acquisition Corporation’s management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management.

There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the second quarter of 2008 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION

 

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds

We registered the initial public offering of our units, common stock and warrants on a Registration Statement on Form S-1 (Registration No. 333-136300), which was declared effective on February 8, 2007. On February 14, 2007 we closed the initial public offering of our units by selling 11,500,000 units (including the underwriters’ over-allotment option of 1,500,000 units) at $8.00 per unit. On February 14, 2007, immediately prior to the closing of the initial public offering, we also closed on private placements of an additional 200,000 units at $8.00 per unit to certain members of our management team, their affiliates and our special advisor. Gross proceeds from the offering and private placements were $93,600,000. Total expenses from the offering and private placements were approximately $6,599,760, which included underwriting discounts and commissions and non-accountable expense allowance of $6,000,000, and approximately $599,760 in other offering-related expenses. Net proceeds, after deducting total expenses were $86,410,240, of which $86,250,000 was deposited into the trust account and the remaining proceeds of $160,240 became available to be used to provide for business, legal and accounting due diligence on prospective business combinations and continuing general and administrative expenses. The amount deposited into the trust account includes $3,680,000, representing the deferred underwriting discounts and commissions and non-accountable expenses, for a total of $89,930,000 (or $7.82 per unit sold in the public offering). The amounts deposited into the trust account remain on deposit in the trust account earning interest. Up to $2,300,000 of the interest earned on the trust account may be released to us to fund our working capital requirements. The managing underwriters of the public offering were I-Bankers Securities, Inc. and CRT Capital Group LLC.

The units sold in the private placements immediately prior to the closing of our initial public offering consisted of 125,000 units to certain of our officers and directors and their affiliates and our special advisor, for an aggregate purchase price of $1,000,000, sold in reliance on the exemption from registration pursuant to Rule 506 of Regulation D under the Securities Act, and 75,000 units to Marillion Pharmaceuticals India Pvt.
