ORIENT PAPER, INC.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

(1) Organization and Business Background

Orient Paper, Inc. (“Orient Paper” or “the Company”) was incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on December 9, 2005, under the name of Carlateral, Inc. Carlateral, Inc. started its business by providing financing services specializing in subprime title loans, secured primarily using automobiles (and also boats, recreational vehicles, machinery, and other equipment) as collateral.

Hebei Baoding Orient Paper Milling Company Limited (“Orient Paper HB”) was incorporated on March 10, 1996, under the laws of the People’s Republic of China (“PRC”). Orient Paper HB is mainly engaged in the production and distribution of paper products such as corrugating medium paper and offset printing paper. Orient Paper HB also has capability to produce other paper and packaging-related products, such as plastic paper and craft paper. Orient Paper HB uses recycled paper as its primary raw material.

Dongfang Zhiye Holding Limited (“Dongfang Holding”) was formed on November 13, 2006, under the laws of the British Virgin Islands, and is an investment holding company. As such, Dongfang Holding does not generate any financial or operating transactions. On July 16, 2007, Dongfang Holding entered into an agreement to acquire the equity ownership of Orient Paper HB and placed all the equity interest in trust with Mr. Zhenyong Liu, Mr. Xiaodong Liu, and Mr. Shuangxi Zhao (the original equity owners of Orient Paper HB, each, an “Orient Paper HB Equity Owner” and collectively, “Orient Paper HB Equity Owners”), pursuant to a trust agreement executed on the same date. Under the terms of the trust agreement, the Orient Paper HB Equity Owners would exercise control over the disposition of Dongfang Holding’s shares in Orient Paper HB on Dongfang Holding’s behalf until Dongfang Holding successfully completed the change in registration of Orient Paper HB’s capital with the relevant PRC Administration of Industry and Commerce as the 100% owner of Orient Paper HB’s equity interest. In connection with the consummation of the restructuring transactions on June 24, 2009 as described below, Dongfang Holding directed its trustee to return its equity ownership in Orient Paper HB to the Orient Paper HB Equity Owners.

On October 29, 2007, Orient Paper entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (“Merger Agreement”) with (i) Orient Paper wholly owned subsidiary, CARZ Merger Sub, Inc., (ii) Dongfang Holding, and (iii) all shareholders of Dongfang Holding (Zhenyong Liu, Xiaodong Liu, Chen Li, Ning Liu, Jie Liu, Shenzhen Huayin Guaranty & Investment Company Limited, Top Good International Limited, Total Giant Group Limited, Total Shine Group Limited, Victory High Investment Limited, Think Big Trading Limited, Huge Step Enterprises Limited, and Sure Believe Enterprise Limited).

Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, Dongfang Holding merged with CARZ Merger Sub, Inc. via a share exchange, with Dongfang Holding as the surviving entity. In exchange for their shares in Dongfang Holding, the Dongfang Holding shareholders received an aggregate of 7,450,497 newly-issued shares of Orient Paper’s common stock, $0.001 par value, which were distributed pro ratably among the Dongfang Holding shareholders in accordance with their respective ownership interests in Dongfang Holding.

As a result of the merger transaction, Dongfang Holding became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Orient Paper, which, in turn, has the controlling right on Dongfang Holding’s operating company, Orient Paper HB, pursuant to the terms of the trust agreement. Orient Paper HB, the entity through which the Company operates its business currently has no subsidiaries, either wholly- or partially-owned.

Prior to the completion of the reverse merger, Orient Paper only had limited operations (since its incorporation on December 9, 2005). On December 21, 2007, the name of the Company was changed from Carlateral, Inc. to Orient Paper, Inc. in order to better reflect the current business plan subsequent to the reverse merger. Accordingly, the reverse merge has been recorded as a recapitalization of Orient Paper.

ORIENT PAPER, INC.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

To ensure proper compliance of the Company’s control over the ownership and operations of Orient Paper HB with certain PRC regulations, on June 24, 2009, the Company entered into a series of contractual agreements (the “Contractual Agreements”) with Orient Paper HB and Orient Paper HB Equity Owners via the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary Shengde Holdings, Inc. (“Shengde Holdings”) a Nevada corporation and Baoding Shengde Paper Co., Ltd. (“Orient Paper Shengde”), a wholly foreign-owned enterprise in the PRC with an original registered capital of $10,000,000 (subsequently increased to $60,000,000 in June 2010). Orient Paper Shengde is mainly engaged in production and distribution of digital photo paper and is 100% owned by Shengde Holdings. Prior to February 10, 2010, the Contractual Agreements included (i) Exclusive Technical Service and Business Consulting Agreement, which generally provides that Orient Paper Shengde shall provide exclusive technical, business and management consulting services to Orient Paper HB, in exchange for service fees including a fee equivalent to 80% of Orient Paper HB’s total annual net profits; (ii) Loan Agreement, which provides that Orient Paper Shengde will make a loan in the aggregate principal amount of $10,000,000 to Orient Paper HB Equity Owners in exchange for each such shareholder agreeing to contribute all of its proceeds from the loan to the registered capital of Orient Paper HB; (iii) Call Option Agreement, which generally provides, among other things, that Orient Paper HB Equity Owners irrevocably grant to Orient Paper Shengde an option to purchase all or part of each owner’s equity interest in Orient Paper HB. The exercise price for the options shall be RMB1 which Orient Paper Shengde should pay to each of Orient Paper HB Equity Owner for all their equity interests in Orient Paper HB; (iv) Share Pledge Agreement, which provides that Orient Paper HB Equity Owners will pledge all of their equity interests in Orient Paper HB to Orient Paper Shengde as security for their obligations under the other agreements described in this section. Specifically, Orient Paper Shengde is entitled to dispose of the pledged equity interests in the event that Orient Paper HB Equity Owners breach their obligations under the Loan Agreement or Orient Paper HB fails to pay the service fees to Orient Paper Shengde pursuant to the Exclusive Technical Service and Business Consulting Agreement; and (v) Proxy Agreement, which provides that Orient Paper HB Equity Owners shall irrevocably entrust a designee of Orient Paper Shengde with such shareholder’s voting rights and the right to represent such shareholder to exercise such owner’s rights at any equity owners’ meeting of Orient Paper HB or with respect to any equity owner action to be taken in accordance with the laws and Orient Paper HB’s Articles of Association. The terms of the agreement are binding on the parties for as long as Orient Paper HB Equity Owners continue to hold any equity interest in Orient Paper HB. An Orient Paper HB Equity Owner will cease to be a party to the agreement once it transfers its equity interests with the prior approval of Orient Paper Shengde. As the Company had controlled Orient Paper HB since July 16, 2007 through Dongfang Holding and the trust until June 24, 2009, and continues to control Orient Paper HB through Orient Paper Shengde and the Contractual Agreements, the execution of the Contractual Agreements is considered as a business combination under common control.

On February 10, 2010, Orient Paper Shengde and the Orient Paper HB Equity Owners entered into a Termination of Loan Agreement to terminate the above $10,000,000 Loan Agreement. Because of the Company’s decision to fund future business expansions through Orient Paper Shengde instead of Orient Paper HB, the $10,000,000 loan contemplated was never made prior to the point of termination. The parties believe the termination of the Loan Agreement does not in itself compromise the effective control of the Company over Orient Paper HB and its businesses in the PRC.

An agreement was also entered into among Orient Paper Shengde, Orient Paper HB and the Orient Paper HB Equity Owners on December 31, 2010, reiterating that Orient Paper Shengde is entitled to 100% of the distributable profit of Orient Paper HB, pursuant to the above mentioned Contractual Agreements. In addition, Orient Paper HB and the Orient Paper HB Equity Owners shall not declare any of Orient Paper HB’s unappropriated earnings as dividend, including the unappropriated earnings of Orient Paper HB from its establishment to 2010 and thereafter.

Orient Paper has no direct equity interest in Orient Paper HB. However, through the Contractual Agreements described above Orient Paper is found to be the primary beneficiary of Orient Paper HB and is deemed to have the effective control over Orient Paper HB’s activities that most significantly affect its economic performance, resulting in Orient Paper HB being treated as a controlled variable interest entity of Orient Paper in accordance with Topic 810 - Consolidation of the Accounting Standards Codification (the “ASC”) issued by the Financial Accounting Standard Board (the “FASB”). The revenue of the Company generated from Orient Paper HB for the three months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013 were 98.60% and 95.78%, respectively. The revenue of the Company generated from Orient Paper HB for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013 were 97.18% and 96.14%, respectively. Orient Paper HB also accounted for 80.46% and 80.25% of the total assets of the Company as of September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively.

(2) Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for reporting on Form 10-Q. Accordingly, certain information and notes required by the United States of America generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for annual financial statements are not included herein. These interim statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013 of Orient Paper, Inc. a Nevada corporation, and its subsidiaries and variable interest entity (which we sometimes refer to collectively as “Orient Paper”, “we”, “us” or “our”).

Principles of Consolidation

Our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of our financial position and results of operations. Such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature, unless otherwise noted. The balance sheet as of September 30, 2014 and the results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for any future period.

Our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with GAAP. These accounting principles require us to make certain estimates, judgments 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 revenues and expenses during the reporting period. We believe that the estimates, judgments and assumptions are reasonable, based on information available at the time they are made. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates.

Liquidity and Going Concern

As of September 30, 2014, the Company had current assets of $30,281,704 and current liabilities of $42,706,218 (including amounts due to related parties of $858,158), resulting in a working capital deficit of approximately $12,424,514; while as of December 31, 2013, the Company had current assets of $25,953,328 and current liabilities of $28,372,723 (including amounts due to related parties of $2,266,961), resulting in a working capital deficit of approximately $2,419,395. We are currently seeking to restructure the term of our liabilities by raising funds through long-term loans to pay off liabilities with shorter terms. Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon obtaining the necessary financing or negotiating the terms of the existing short-term liabilities to meet our current and future liquidity needs. Although management believes it can secure financial resources to satisfy the Company's current liabilities and the capital expenditure needs in the next 12 months, there are no guarantees that these financial resources will be secured. Therefore, there is a substantial doubt about the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern. Our condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if we are unable to continue as a going concern.

Financing with Sale-Leaseback

The Company entered into a sale-leaseback arrangement (the “Lease Financing Agreement”) with China National Foreign Trade Financial & Leasing Co., Ltd ("CNFTFL") on June 16, 2013, for a total financing proceeds in the amount of RMB150 million (approximately US$24 million). Under the sale-leaseback arrangement, Orient Paper HB sold the Leased Equipment to CNFTFL for an amount of RMB 150 million (approximately US$24 million). Concurrent with the sale of equipment, Orient Paper HB leases back all of the equipment sold to CNFTFL for a lease term of three years. At the end of the lease term, Orient Paper HB may pay a nominal purchase price of RMB 15,000 (approximately $2,400) to CNFTFL and buy back all of the Leased Equipment. The sale-leaseback is treated by the Company as a mere financing and capital lease transaction, rather than a sale of assets (under which gain or loss is immediately recognized) under ASC 840-40-25-4. All of the Leased Equipment are included as part of the property, plant and equipment of the Company for the periods presented; while the net present value of the minimum lease payment (including a lease service charge equal to 5.55% of the amount financed, i.e. approximately US$1.35 million) was recorded as obligations under capital lease and was calculated with CNFTFL’s implicit interest rate of 6.15% per annum and stated at $25,750,170 at the inception of the lease on June 16, 2013. The balance of the long-term obligations under capital lease were $8,135,569 and $12,296,639 as of September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, which is net of its current portion in the amount of $8,186,242 and $8,264,795, respectively.

Total interest expenses for the sale-leaseback arrangement for three months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013 were $207,830 and $114,041, respectively. Total interest expenses for the sale-leaseback arrangement for nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013 were $717,058 and $174,495, respectively.

As a result of the sale, a deferred gain on sale of Leased Equipment in the amount of $1,379,282 was created at the closing of the transaction and is presented as a non-current liability. The deferred gain would be amortized by the Company during the lease term and would be used to offset the depreciation of the Leased Equipment.

As part of the sale-leaseback transaction, Orient Paper HB entered into a Collateral Agreement with CNFTFL and pledged the land use right in the amount of approximately $7,337,989 on some 58,566 square meters of land as collateral for the lease.

The unsecured loan carries an annual interest rate based on the People’s Bank of China at the time of the renewal and was set at 6.15% per annum. As of September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, net amount due to Mr. Liu were $2,373,981 and $2,389,633, respectively.

The interest expenses incurred for above related party loans are $36,445 and $36,478 for the three months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, while the interest expenses were $109,556 and $108,460 for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013. On March 25, 2014, our Chairman and CEO Mr. Zhenyong Liu agreed in writing to permit the Company to continue to postpone the repayment of the accrued interest on his loan to Orient Paper HB until the earliest date on which the Company's quarterly or annual financial statements filed with the SEC show a satisfactory working capital level. The accrued interest owned to Mr. Liu was approximately $672,133 and $566,343, which was recorded in other payables and accrued liabilities (see Note (12) below) as part of the current liabilities as of September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively.

During the nine months and the three months ended September 30, 2014, the Company borrowed $643,500 and $300,000, respectively, from a shareholder to pay for various expenses incurred in the U.S. The amount was repayable on demand with interest free. The Company repaid the entire balance by the end of the period.

Sale of Headquarters Compound Real Properties to a Related Party

On August 7, 2013 the Company’s Audit Committee and the Board of Directors approved the sale of the land use right of the Headquarters Compound (the “LUR”), the office building and essentially all industrial-use buildings in the Headquarters Compound (the “Industrial Buildings”), and three employee dormitory buildings located within the Headquarters Compound (the “Dormitories”) to Hebei Fangsheng for cash prices of approximately $2.77 million, $1.15 million, and $4.31 million, respectively. In connection with the sale of the Industrial Buildings, Hebei Fangsheng agrees to lease the Industrial Buildings back to the Company for its original use for a term of up to three years, with an annual rental payment of approximately $162,763. As of September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the accrued rent to Hebei Fangsheng are in the amount of $186,025 and $64,546, respectively.

The sale was conducted on an arms-length basis, and was reviewed by the Company’s Audit Committee and approved by the Board of Directors. The $2.77 million sale price of the industrial land use right was determined by the valuation from a government designated appraisal, which was 3.35% higher than a second independent appraisal commissioned by the Company. The $1.15 million sale price of the Industrial Buildings was determined by negotiation between the Company and Hebei Fangsheng and is equal to the appraised value based on the assumption that the use of the buildings would be continued until they are retired. Based on the assumption that such buildings would have to be torn down to comply with the re-zoning, a second independent appraisal obtained by the Company put the value at $0.4 million. Although the Company and Hebei Fangsheng agree to set the sale price of the Dormitories at the Company’s original construction cost of the three dormitory buildings for $4.31 million, an independent appraisal shows that the value for the three buildings as employee dormitories was $4.64 million.

As a condition for the sale of the Dormitories, Hebei Fangsheng agrees that it will act as an agent for the Company, which does not have the qualification to sell residential housing units in China, and that it is obligated to sell all of the 132 apartment units in the Dormitories to qualified employees of the Company at its acquisition price. Hebei Fangsheng further represents that it will not seek to profit from the resale of the Dormitories units and will allow the Company to inspect the books and records of the sale upon completion of the resale of the Dormitories units to ensure the objectives are achieved.

Sales of the LUR and the Industrial Buildings were completed in year 2013. Sales of the dormitories, which was classified as assets held for sale as of December 31, 2013, was consummated on August 15, 2014 with a gain on disposal of approximately $203,488 recognized during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014.

(14) Stock warrants

On August 27, 2014, the Company issued 1,562,500 shares of our common stock and warrants to purchase up to 781,250 shares of our common stock. The warrants have an exercise price of $1.70 per share with two warrants being exercisable for one share of common stock. These warrants are exercisable immediately upon issuance on September 3, 2014 and have a term of exercise equal to five years from the date of issuance till September 2, 2019.

The fair value of the warrants issued was estimated by using the Binominal pricing model with the following assumptions:

Terms of warrants |  |  | 5 years
Expected volatility |  |  | 72.0%
Risk-free interest rate |  |  | 1.69%
Expected dividend yield |  |  | 0.81%

In connection with the Offering, the Company issued warrants to its placement agent of this Offering, which can purchase an aggregate of up to 2.50% of the aggregate number of shares of common stock sold in the Offering, i.e. 39,062 shares. These warrants have substantially the same terms as the warrants issued to purchaser in the Offering, except that the exercise price is $2.00 per share and the expiration date is June 26, 2019.

The fair value of the warrants issued was estimated by using the Binominal pricing model with the following assumptions:

Terms of warrants |  |  | 4.81 years
Expected volatility |  |  | 69.8%
Risk-free interest rate |  |  | 1.62%
Expected dividend yield |  |  | 0.81%

The Company applied judgment in estimating key assumptions in determining the fair value of the warrants on the date of issuance. The Company used historical data to estimate stock volatilities and expected dividend yield. The risk-free rates are consistent with the terms of the warrants and are based on the United States Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of issuance.

A summary of stock warrant activities is as below:

|  | Nine months ended September 30, 2014 |
|  | Number |  |  | Weighted average exercise price |
Outstanding and exercisable at beginning of the period |  | - |  |  | $ | - |

Outstanding and exercisable at end of the period |  |  | 820,312 |  |  | $ | 1.71 |

No warrants were issued, exercised, cancelled or expired during the year ended December 31, 2013. The weighted average fair value of warrants granted for the period ended September 30, 2014 was $0.99 per share. The total intrinsic value of warrants exercised for the period ended September 30, 2014 was $nil.

(20) Concentration and Major Customers and Suppliers

For the three months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, the Company had no single customer contributing over 10% of total sales.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, the Company had no single customer contributing over 10% of total sales.

For the three months ended September 30, 2014, the Company had two major suppliers which primarily accounted for 52% and 21% of the total purchases. For the three months ended September 30, 2013, the Company had two major suppliers which primarily accounted for 77% and 8% of the total purchases.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2014, the Company had three major suppliers which primarily accounted for 62%, 13% and 8% of the total purchases. For the nine months ended September 30, 2013, the Company had two major suppliers which primarily accounted for 75% and 10% of the total purchases.

(21) Concentration of Credit Risk

Financial instruments for which the Company is potentially subject to concentration of credit risk consist principally of cash. The Company places its temporary cash investments in reputable financial institutions in the PRC and the United States. Although it is generally understood that the PRC central government stands behind all of the banks in China in the event of bank failure, there is no deposit insurance system in China that is similar to the protection provided by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) of the United States. The Company’s U.S. bank accounts are all fully covered by the FDIC insurance as of September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively.

(22) Risks and Uncertainties

Orient Paper is subject to substantial risks from, among other things, intense competition associated with the industry in general, other risks associated with financing, liquidity requirements, rapidly changing customer requirements, foreign currency exchange rates, and operating in the PRC under its various laws and restrictions.

(23) Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-15, Presentation of Financial Statements—Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40): Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern, which are intended to define management’s responsibility to evaluate whether there is substantial doubt about an organization’s ability to continue as a going concern and to provide related footnote disclosures. Under GAAP, financial statements are prepared under the presumption that the reporting organization will continue to operate as a going concern, except in limited circumstances. It lacks guidance about management’s responsibility to evaluate whether there is substantial doubt about the organization’s ability to continue as a going concern or to provide related footnote disclosures. This amendment provides guidance to an organization’s management, with principles and definitions that are intended to reduce diversity in the timing and content of disclosures that are commonly provided by organizations today in the financial statement footnotes.

The amendment is effective for annual periods ending after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016. Early application is permitted for annual or interim reporting periods for which the financial statements have not previously been issued. Currently, the Company is evaluating the impact of the pending adoption of ASU 2014-14 on the disclosure of the consolidated financial statements.

We intend such forward-looking statements to be covered by the safe harbor provisions contained in Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) and in Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). The forward-looking statements we make are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to various assumptions, risks, and other factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those suggested by these forward-looking statements. Because such statements are subject to risks and uncertainties, actual results may differ materially from those expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements. Indeed, it is likely that some of our assumptions may prove to be incorrect. Our actual results and financial position may vary from those projected or implied in the forward-looking statements and the variances may be material. You are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such forward-looking statements. These risks and uncertainties, together with the other risks described from time to time in reports and documents that we file with the SEC should be considered in evaluating forward-looking statements.

In evaluating the forward-looking statements contained in this report, you should consider various factors, including, without limitation, the following: (a) those risks and uncertainties related to general economic conditions, (b) whether we are able to manage our planned growth efficiently and operate profitable operations, (c) whether we are able to generate sufficient revenues or obtain financing to sustain and grow our operations, and (d) whether we are able to successfully fulfill our primary requirements for cash. We assume no obligation to update forward-looking statements, except as otherwise required under federal securities laws.

Results of Operations

Comparison of the Three Months Ended September 30, 2014 and 2013

Revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2014 was $40,754,205, an increase of $3,068,091, or 8.14%, from $37,686,114 for same period in the previous year.

Revenue of Offset Printing Paper and Corrugating Medium Paper

Revenue from sales of offset printing paper and corrugating medium paper (“CMP”) for the three months ended September 30, 2014 was $40,183,579, an increase of $4,086,074 (or 11.32%) from $36,097,505 for the third quarter of 2013. The increase is mainly attributable to additional revenue contributed by our newly renovated PM1 production line, which was under renovation throughout the year of 2013 and did not produce any revenue during the third quarter of 2013. The PM1 production line now produces the 40 g/s/m to 80 g/s/m special specification CMP (the “Light-Weight CMP”) products, compared to the 110 gram-square-meter (g/s/m) CMP (the “Regular CMP”) produced by the PM6 product. Light-Weight CMP products can be used not only as corrugating medium, but also as packaging paper for book and magazine transportation and liner paper for building insulation materials. Light-Weight CMP products are now sold to our packaging company customers for various packaging applications.

Total offset printing and corrugating medium paper sold during the three months ended September 30, 2014 amounted to 98,008 tonnes, an increase of 14,277 tonnes, or 17.05%, compared to 83,731 tonnes sold in the comparable period in the previous year. All of the CMP sold in 2013 was Regular CMP produced by the PM6 production line and totaled 66,472 tonnes in the three months ended September 30, 2013, as compared to 68,876 tonnes Regular CMP in the comparable period in 2014, resulting in a year-over-year increase of 2,404 tonnes, or 3.62%. We were able to run the PM6 production line at higher machine speed, minimize downtime, and produce more than 22,000 tonnes of Regular CMP during each of the three months in the third quarter of 2014. The PM1 production line produced and sold Light-Weight CMP of 13,341 tonnes in the three months ended September 30, 2014. The changes in revenue dollar amount and in tonnage for the three months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013 are summarized as follows:

The following is a chart showing the month-by-month ASPs (excluding the ASPs of the digital photo paper) for the 24 months period ended September 30, 2014:

Corrugating Medium Paper

Revenue from all corrugating medium paper amounted to $29,337,292 (or 73.01% of total offset printing paper and corrugating medium paper revenue) for the three months ended September 30, 2014, representing a $4,956,494 (or 20.33%) increase from the corrugating medium paper revenue of $24,380,798 for the comparable period in 2013. Of the total CMP sales for the three months ended September 30, 2014, $4,918,065 was generated by the Light-Weight CMP products produced by our newly renovated PM1 production line, and $24,419,227 was generated by the Regular CMP produced by our PM6 production line. We sold a total of 82,217 tonnes of corrugating medium paper in the three months ended September 30, 2014 as compared to 66,472 tonnes for the same period in 2013, representing a 23.69% increase in quantities sold. ASP for Regular CMP dropped from $367/tonne in the third quarter 2013 to $355/tonne in the same period in 2014, representing a 3.27% decrease over the comparable period. The PM6 production line’s utilization for the third quarter of 2014 and 2013 were 76.60% and 74.89% of the designed capacity, respectively.

We have been producing 60 g/s/m Light-Weight CMP from the newly renovated PM1 production line as of September 30, 2014. The ASP for these Light-Weight CMPs was $369/tonne for the quarter ended September 30, 2014, slightly higher than the ASP of $355/tonne for the Regular CMP.

To cope with the contraction in paper product demand, nationwide capacity surplus and environmental pollution caused by smaller producers, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology (the “MIIT”) of China announced on July 25, 2013 a list of outdated paper facilities slated for closure in 2013. According to MIIT, a total of 6.21 million tonnes of paper manufacturing capacities on the July 25, 2013 list across the country were required to be shut down by the end of 2013, including 930,800 tonnes in the Hebei Province, an area that is heavily impacted two years in a row. MIIT has also announced on July 24, 2014 that facilities producing 3.97 million tonnes of paper and pulp, including 500,000 tonnes in Hebei Province, are mandated to retire by the end of 2014. On August 18, 2014, MIIT announced another list of outdated paper facilities that are required to be closed by the end of 2014. The August 18, 2014 list shut down 0.66 million tonnes paper manufacturing capacity, including 5,000 tonnes in Hebei Province. Unlike the mandatory closures in the previous years when most of the closed capacities involved small-scale local mills, usually with less than 50,000 tonnes of production capability and without proper water treatment practices, the 2013 and 2014 mandatory closure lists included a number of large capacity paper machines (up to 226,000 tonnes per line) that failed to meet the environmental and energy savings standards. The government is expected to continue to strictly reinforce the mandatory closure of outdated capacities in the rest of 2014 and the next few years. Therefore, we estimate that the ASPs for corrugating medium paper and other packaging paper will remain relatively stable as a result of elimination of outdated paper capacities in the next few quarters.

We launched the new 360,000 tonnes/year PM6 production line in December 2011 and have been able to ramp up the PM6 production line output by optimizing production. Monthly utilization in the months of July, August and September of 2014 were 79%, 77%, and 73%, respectively. Monthly utilization for the same months in 2013 were 75%, 76%, and 73%, respectively. Quantities sold of units produced by the PM6 production line from October 2012 to September 2014 are as follows:

Offset Printing Paper

Revenue from offset printing paper amounted to $10,846,287 (or 26.99% of total offset printing paper and corrugating medium paper revenue) for the three months ended September 30, 2014, which represents an $870,420 (or 7.43%) decrease from the offset printing paper revenue of $11,716,707 for the comparable period in 2013. We sold 15,791 tonnes of offset printing paper in the three months ended September 30, 2014, compared to 17,259 tonnes of offset printing paper in the comparable period in 2013, a decrease of 1,468 tonnes, or 8.51%, due to lower market demand for our products. We sold offset printing paper at an ASP of $687/tonne in the third quarter of 2014, which is 1.18% higher than the ASP of $679/tonne in the third quarter of year 2013.

Revenue of Digital Photo Paper

Pursuant to the local County government’s urban redevelopment plan, we are required to relocate our digital photo paper production facilities. As of September 30, 2014, our digital photo coating production lines, PM4 and PM5, have been disassembled and were being moved to the new workshop that we built across the street from our main production base, Xushui Paper Mill (the Xushui Mill Annex”). Revenue generated from selling digital photo paper was $570,626 (or 1.40% of total revenue) for the three months ended September 30, 2014, a decrease of $1,017,983 or 64.08% from $1,588,609 (or 4.22% of total revenue) for the three months ended September 30, 2013. When comparing to the three months ended September 30, 2013, the ASP of our digital photo paper in 2014 slightly increased from $3,903/tonne to $3,908/tonne, representing a 0.13% year-over-year increase. Digital photo operation is expected to resume in the second half of 2015.

Changes in sales revenue and quantities sold of our digital photo paper for the three months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013 are summarized as follows:

|  | Three Months Ended |  |  | Three Months Ended |  |  |  |  | Percentage |
Sales |  | September 30, 2014 |  |  | September 30, 2013 |  |  | Change in |  | Change |

Cost of Sales

Total cost of sales for corrugating medium paper and offset printing paper for the three months ended September 30, 2014 was $33,781,996, an increase of $5,713,926 (or 20.36%) from $28,068,070 for the comparable period in 2013. With the 3.62% quantity increase in our sales of Regular CMP, cost of sales for Regular CMP amounted to $21,434,117 for the three months ended September 30, 2014, as compared to $19,053,278 for the same period in the year of 2013, representing a year-over-year increase of 12.50%. Cost of sales for offset printing paper for the three months ended September 30, 2014 was $8,921,191, a decrease of $93,601 (or 1.04%) from $9,014,792 in the same period in year 2013, in line with the 8.51% decline in the quarterly quantity sold of offset printing paper in the third quarter of 2014 as opposed to 2013. Average cost of sales per tonne of Regular CMP went up from $287 in the third quarter of 2013 to $311 in the third quarter of 2014 (an increase of 8.36%), while average cost of sales per tonne of offset printing paper went up from $522 in the third quarter of 2013 to $565 (an increase of 8.24%) during the three months ended September 30, 2014. Cost of sales for our Light-Weight CMP for the three months ended September 30, 2014 was $3,426,688. Light-Weight CMP generally uses the same type of raw materials as our Regular CMP. However, as our PM1 production line is a re-build of an older paper machine, the cost of which was substantially written down prior to the renovation in 2013, equipment deprecation allocated to the PM1 production line for the Light-Weight CMP was lower than that for the Regular CMP. As a result, average cost of sales per tonne of Light-Weight CMP for the third quarter of 2014 was $257, or 17.36% lower than that of the Regular CMP.

Changes in cost of sales and cost per tonne by product for the quarters ended September 30, 2014 and 2013 are summarized below:

The quantity and price of imported recycled paper board (or Old Corrugated Cardboard, “OCC”) to China began to fall in April 2013, as the Chinese government’s Green Fence policy started to affect most recycled paper shipments and an increasing number of containers were rejected and turned away. The “Operation Green Fence” is a policy that was implemented by Chinese Customs for ten months from February 2013 to the end of 2013. The goal of Operation Green Fence was to limit the importation of solid waste-contaminated shipments into China through stricter inspection and a higher rejection rate of substandard recycled materials. Despite that some industry commentators believing that the drop in price was temporary, the OCC import cost has been relatively low in 2013. According to a report by www.chinapaper.net, the quantity and value of recycled paper imported through the northern Chinese port of Tianjin for the first five months of 2014 declined 33.7% and 34.7%, respectively, as compared to the same period a year ago. Whether the decline is attributable to Operation Green Fence, the slower Chinese economy or increased recycling rates for all types of domestically recycled paper, we believe that the OCC price in China will remain stable throughout the rest of 2014. On the other hand, recycled white scrap price has been trending up since the beginning of 2014. We believe that as demand for wood pulp rises in China (possibly due to an increased demand for tissue paper), demand for white recycled paper, which can be used as a substitute for wood pulp (to a certain extent), may also increase in the future.

Our production uses entirely domestic recycled paper (sourced mainly from the Beijing-Tianjin metropolitan area) and does not rely on imported recycled paper, which tends to have more volatile pricing than the domestic recycled paper. However, our experience suggests that the pricing of domestic recycled paper still bears some correlation to the price of imported recycled paper. Our average unit purchase costs (net of applicable value added tax) of recycled paper board and recycled white scrap paper in the third quarter of 2014 were RMB 1,026/tonne and RMB 2,222/tonne (or approximately $167/tonne and $361/tonne), respectively, compared to RMB 969/tonne and RMB 2,094/tonne (or approximately $156/tonne and $337/tonne) for the same period of 2013. These changes (in US dollars) represent year-over-year increases of 7.05% and 7.12% for the OCC and recycled white scrap paper, respectively, and appear to be caused by the temporarily lower raw material prices during the Operation Green Fence period in 2013.

The pricing trends of our major raw materials for the 24-month period from October 2012 to September 2014 are shown below:

Gross Profit

Corrugating Medium Paper and Offset Printing Paper

Gross profit for corrugating medium paper and offset printing paper for the three months ended September 30, 2014 was $6,401,583, a net decrease of $1,627,852 (or 20.27%) from $8,029,435 for the same period in 2013. Despite the 11.32% increase in total revenue of corrugating medium paper and offset printing paper, the decrease in gross profit of corrugating medium paper and offset printing paper for the third quarter of 2014 was the direct result of the 20.36% increase in cost of goods sold between the third quarters of 2014 and 2013 as discussed above.

29

The overall gross profit margin for corrugating medium paper and offset printing paper decreased by 28.37%, or 6.31 percentage points, from 22.24% in the third quarter of 2013 to 15.93% for the third quarter of 2014. Due to a declining ASP and a higher unit cost of the major raw material OCC as compared with the average for the three months ended September 30, 2013, gross profit margin for the Regular CMP for the three months ended September 30, 2014 was 12.22%, compared to 21.85% for the same period a year ago. With a much smaller depreciation charge, gross profit margin for our new Light-Weight CMP for the three months ended September 30, 2014 was 30.32%. Gross profit margin for the offset printing paper was 17.75% for the three months ended September 30, 2014, compared to 23.06% for the comparable period a year ago. Monthly gross profit margins on the sales of our corrugating medium paper and offset printing paper for the 24-month period ended September 30, 2014 are as follows:

Digital Photo Paper

As a result of the substantial decrease in the sales of digital photo paper caused by the mandatory relocation of our digital photo paper production facilities, gross profit from the sales of digital photo paper for the three months ended September 30, 2014 decreased to $9,265, or 1.62%, as a percentage of total digital photo paper sales, compared with $406,379, or 25.58% as a percentage to total digital photo paper sales in the same period last year. The dollar amount decrease of $397,114 in the third quarter of 2014 represents a 97.72% decrease over the base amount of $406,379. Our digital photo paper ASP was $3,908/tonne in the third quarter of 2014, almost unchanged as compared to $3,903/tonne in the same period in the previous year of 2013. As explained above, we have started the relocation of our PM4 and PM5 production lines from their previous location at our Headquarters Compound to the new workshops in our Xushui Mill Annex as of September 30, 2014. No digital photo paper will be produced in the fourth quarter of 2014 and the first half of 2015, until the installation of the PM4 and PM5 production lines at the new location is completed, which is expected to be in the second half of 2015.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2014 were $995,613, an increase of $38,584 or 4.03% from $957,029 for the third quarter of 2013. The increase was mainly attributable to the offsets of the following increases and decreases in the third quarter of 2014 compared to the same period in 2013: (a) an increase of $107,835 in salaries and wages of the new management and staff members recently hired in the third quarter of 2014 to prepare for the launch of our tissue paper operations at the Wei County Industrial Park, (b) a decrease of $67,365 in legal fees in the third quarter of 2014 as compared to the same period in 2013, (c) a decrease in building depreciation of $32,190 for the buildings that were sold in the third quarter of 2013, and (d) a decrease of $30,398 consulting fee that we paid in the third quarter of 2013 but were not incurred in 2014.

Income from Operations

Operating income for the three months ended September 30, 2014 was $4,929,301, a decrease of $2,634,221 (or 34.83%) from $7,563,552 for the same period in year 2013. In addition to the $2,024,966 decrease in overall gross profit and a slight increase in selling, general and administrative expenses, we recognized a $689,422 loss from disposal of certain digital photo paper equipment and other equipment used in the warehouses that are dismantled as of September 30, 2014 as a result of the relocation of PM4 and PM5 production lines. On the other hand, a gain of $203,488 was recognized from the sale of the three employee dormitory buildings previously classified as assets held for sale to a related party controlled by our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Zhenyong Liu.

Other Income and Expenses

Interest expense in the three months ended September 30, 2014 increased by $99,806, from $244,385 in the third quarter of 2013 to $344,191. The Company had total short-term and long-term interest-bearing loans, related party loan and leasing obligations in the amount of $32,698,230 as of September 30, 2014, as compared to a total of $39,350,427 of such loans as of September 30, 2013. Of all interest incurred on the interest-bearing loans, $207,830 (which was related to the sale-leaseback obligation with CNFTFL) and $113,941 was capitalized as soft-cost of construction-in-progress during the third quarter of 2014 and 2013, respectively.

Net Income

Net income was $3,372,944 for the three months ended September 30, 2014, a decrease of $2,161,900 (or 39.06%) from $5,534,844 for the comparable period in the year of 2013. The decrease was primarily attributable to the changes in the income from operations as explained above.

Comparison of the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2014 and 2013

Revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 was $104,344,334, an increase of $13,873,052 (or 15.33%) from $90,471,282 for the same period in the previous year.

Revenue of Offset Printing Paper and Corrugating Medium Paper

Revenue of offset printing paper and corrugating medium paper for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 was $101,402,582, an increase of $14,420,415 or 16.58% from $86,982,167 for the comparable period in 2013. This substantial increase in revenue in 2014 was attributable to the following factors:

| 1. | In 2013, the Company underwent a comprehensive environmental protection inspection conducted by the local Xushui County government, which was part of a county-wide initiative, from February 26 to March 31, 2013. While no major environmental protection deficiency was identified, the production at the Company’s Xushui Paper Mill was interrupted for a 20-day period from February 26 to March 17, 2013 due to the inspection. The production interruption affected both the corrugating medium PM6 production line and our two offset printing paper production lines (PM2 and PM3). Following the inspection, we made improvements to the open sewage line that we use for water discharge. We completed all of the improvements by March 17, 2013 and resumed normal production on March 17, 2013. In 2014, we did not experience any significant interruption because of routine government inspection in the first three quarters of 2014.

| 2. | In addition to the production ramp up at the PM6 production line, we have also launched the commercial production at the newly renovated PM1 production line in May 2014. The old PM1 production line, which produced Regular CMP prior to its voluntary shut down in December 2012, did not generate any revenue throughout the entire year of 2013 but contributed $6,442,886 of sales revenue of Light-Weight CMP in this nine-month period in 2014.

Revenue from corrugating medium paper (including Regular and Light-Weight CMP) amounted to $72,200,154 (or 69.19% of total revenue) for the nine months ended September 30, 2014, representing a $14,632,660 (or 25.42%) increase from the corrugating medium paper revenue of $57,567,494 for the comparable period in 2013. We sold 199,540 tonnes of corrugating medium paper in the nine months ended September 30, 2014, including 17,556 tonnes of Light-Weight CMP made by the new PM1 production line, compared to 154,574 tonnes (all of which were for Regular CMP made by the PM6 production line) sold in the same period in 2013, an increase of 44,966 tonnes or 29.09%. ASP for the Regular CMP in the nine months ended September 30, 2014 slightly decreased to $361/tonnes from $372/tonne (a decrease of $11, or 2.96%) for the same period in 2013. ASP for the PM1 production line’s Light-Weight CMP was $367/tonne, slightly higher than that of the Regular CMP, during the nine months ended September 30, 2014.

Revenue from offset printing paper amounted to $29,202,428 (or 27.99% of total revenue) for the nine months ended September 30, 2014, which represents a $212,245 (or 0.72%) decrease from the offset printing paper revenue of $29,414,673 for the comparable period in 2013. ASP for offset printing paper did not see much change from the first nine months of 2014 to the same period of 2013, slightly rising to $684/tonne for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 from $682/tonne (a 0.29% increase) for the nine months ended September 30, 2013. We sold 42,664 tonnes of offset printing paper in the first nine months of 2014 compared to 43,140 tonnes for the same period in 2013, a decrease of 476 tonnes (or 1.10%). We estimate that the regional market of offset printing paper will remain stable and the ASP will not experience any significant change in the rest of 2014.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2014, cost of sales for digital photo paper was $2,376,791, as compared to $2,861,457 for the same period in year 2013. The decrease in the cost of sales of digital photo paper in the amount of $484,666 represents a 16.9% decrease from the comparable period in 2013. The decrease rate in digital photo paper cost of sales is generally consistent with the 15.69% decrease in revenue, which appears to be caused by a lowered production in the last five months in the nine months ended September 30, 2014, when the digital photo paper operation was winding down for the relocation to the new Xushui Mill Annex. The average unit inventory cost of the major raw material, digital photo base paper, also dropped from $1,113.73/tonne as of September 30, 2013 to $1,108.12/tonne as of September 30, 2014.

Gross Profit

Gross profit for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 was $17,202,691 (or 16.49%) of total revenue, representing an increase of $1,038,245 (or 6.42%) from the gross profit of $16,164,446 (or 17.87%) of total revenue for the same period in year 2013.

Gross profit for offset printing paper and corrugating medium paper for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 was $16,637,730, an increase of $1,100,942 (or 7.09%) from $15,536,788 for the comparable period in 2013. As explained above, because of the launch of the newly renovated PM1 production line, the total sales revenue of offset printing paper and corrugating medium paper for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 grew 16.58% over the same period in 2013, while the cost of sales increased 18.64% during the same period.

The overall gross profit margin for total offset printing paper and corrugating medium paper for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 decreased by 1.45%, from 17.86% for the first nine months in 2013 to 16.41% in the comparable period in year 2014. Gross profit margin for the Regular CMP for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 was 13.96% (or 23.59% lower) compared to the gross profit margin of 18.27% for the comparable period in 2013. Such decrease was led by a 2.96% decline in the Regular CMP ASP and a 2.30% increase in the unit cost of the major raw material over the period, among other things.

The gross profit margin for our Light-Weight CMP for the first nine-month period of 2014 was 28.53%.

Our offset printing paper has seen a moderate 0.72% decrease in revenue for the first nine months of 2014 as opposed to the same period in 2013, coupled with a 3.34% year-over-year drop in offset printing paper cost of sales during the same period. Gross profit margin for offset printing paper sold was 19.25% for the nine months ended September 30, 2014, increased by 2.18% as compared to 17.06% for the same period in 2013, when the utilization of the production lines was exceptionally low during the first quarter of that year due to government environmental inspections.

Gross profit from the sales of digital photo paper for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 amounted to $564,961 (or 19.20%) of sales revenue, compared with $627,658, or 17.99% as a percentage of total digital photo paper sales during the comparable period in 2013. The decrease in gross profit margin was due to a decrease in cost of sale caused by lower purchase price of the base paper.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 were $2,893,828, a net increase of $163,077 (or 5.97%) from $2,730,751 for the comparable period in 2013. The net increase was primarily attributable to, among other things, the following changes between the first nine months of years 2014 and 2013: (a) an increase of $168,088 in salaries and wages for the new management and staff members to prepare for the tissue paper operations at the Wei County Industrial Park, (b) an increase of $95,133 in facility lease payable to Hebei Fangsheng to whom we sold the Headquarters Compound buildings with a leaseback of annual rent of approximately $162,620 since August 2013, (c) a decrease in legal fees paid in the first nine months of 2014 than the amount incurred in the same period of 2013 of $56,921, and (d) a decrease of $120,122 in depreciation of, for the most part, the buildings and land use rights of the Headquarters Compound that we sold to Hebei Fangsheng in August 2013.

Income from Operations

Operating income for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 was $13,822,929, an increase of $304,497 (or 2.25%) from $13,518,432 for the comparable period in 2013. The increase, in addition to being a result of changes in gross profit and selling, general and administrative expenses, resulted from a $689,422 loss from disposal of digital photo paper production and warehouse equipment as a result of the relocation of our digital photo paper production lines starting in September 2014, and a $203,488 gain recognized from the sale of the three employee dormitory buildings previously classified as assets held for sale to a related party controlled by our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Mr. Zhenyong Liu.

Other Income and Expenses

Interest expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 increased by $164,925 from $723,103 in the first nine months of 2013 to $888,028 in the first nine months of 2014. The Company had total short-term and long-term interest-bearing loans, related party loan and leasing obligations in the amount of $32,698,230 as of September 30, 2014, as compared to a total of $39,350,427 of such loans as of September 30, 2013. Of all interest incurred on the interest-bearing loans, $717,058 (which was related to the sale-leaseback obligation with CNFTFL) and $152,036 was capitalized as soft-cost of construction-in-progress during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

Net Income

Net income was $9,478,346 for the nine months ended September 30, 2014, a slight decrease of $15,689 (or 0.17%) from $9,494,035 for the comparable period in 2013.

Accounts Receivable

Net accounts receivable increased by $834,666 (or 25.08%) to $4,162,160 as of September 30, 2014, compared with $3,327,494 as of December 31, 2013 due to the increased sales volume in the third quarter of 2014. We usually collect accounts receivable within 30 days of delivery and completion of sales.

Inventories

Inventories consist of raw materials (accounting for 83.57% of total value of ending inventory as of September 30, 2014) and finished goods. As of September 30, 2014, the recorded value of inventory decreased by 38.92% to $6,980,107 from $11,428,405 as of December 31, 2013. The largest change came from the inventory item of recycled paper board, which is the main raw material for the production of corrugating medium paper and was stated at $4,690,806 as of September 30, 2014, $3,314,182 lower than the balance of recycled paper board as of December 31, 2013. This is directly related to the slowdown in production during the week-long Chinese national holiday between October 1 and October 7, 2014. In the past, our factory did not stop operation for the October Chinese national holiday, but this year, we allowed our factory workers to take the week off during the national holiday. The September 30, 2014 balances for the other major raw materials were also lower than those as of December 31, 2013 because of the suspension of production for the October national holiday.

A summary of changes in major inventory items is as follows:

|  | September 30, 2014 |  |  | December 31, 2013 |  |  | $ Change |  |  | % Change |
Raw Materials |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |

Assets Held For Sale

As of December 31, 2013, assets held for sale in the amount of $4,130,590 represented the three employee dormitory buildings to be sold to a related party company controlled by our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Mr. Zhenyong Liu. The sale was consummated on August 15, 2014 with a gain on disposal of approximately $203,488 recognized for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014.

Accounts Payable and Notes Payable

Accounts payable was $612,995 as of September 30, 2014, a decrease of $313,576 (or 33.84%) from $926,571 as of December 31, 2013. We have been taking advantage of the bank and commercial acceptance notes issued under our credit facilities with the Bank of Hebei, the Commercial Bank of the City of Zhangjiakou (the “CBCZ Bank”) and Shanghai Pudong Development Bank (“SPD Bank”) to make most of our raw material vendor payments. Our notes payable to the Bank of Hebei, CBCZ and SPD Bank for vendor payments were at $21,129,622 and $4,908,216 as of September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Overview

As of September 30, 2014, we had a net working capital deficit of $12,424,514, an increase of $10,005,119 from the net working capital deficit of $2,419,395 at December 31, 2013, primarily due to a substantial increase in short-term bank loans and notes payable to finance construction-in-progress of our capex projects. Total current assets as of September 30, 2014 amounted to $30,281,704. Substantially all cash and cash equivalents are cash deposits in bank accounts. Restricted cash of $11,377,489 was included in our current assets as of September 30, 2014 and was deposited at the Bank of Hebei, the CBCZ Bank and SPD Bank for purpose of securing the bank and commercial acceptance notes from these banks. The restriction will be lifted upon the maturity of the notes payable from October 14, 2014 through March 28, 2015.

We have been reporting higher balances in current liabilities on our balance sheet since we entered into a three-year sale-leaseback financing that we secured on June 16, 2013 (see details below), which features a three-year fully amortization schedule with periodic principal payments every six months. Essentially all proceeds of the sale-leaseback were used to finance the construction cost of the Wei County tissue paper expansion project (see below). Current liabilities as of September 30, 2014 totaled $42,706,218, an increase of $14,333,495 over the December 31, 2013 balance and included a current portion of the capital lease payable for such principal payments in the amount of $8,186,242. We have also been using bank and commercial acceptance notes, which are typical 6-to-9 month notes payable, to guarantee the payments to our suppliers. The notes payable was stated at $21,129,622 as of September 30, 2014, representing a $16,221,406 (or 330.49%) increase from the balance as of December 31, 2013. Most of our current short-term bank loans are either revolving or term loans. We expect to renew the loans with the banks with similar terms at or before maturity. All of our short-term loans (with the exception of the notes payables, which carry no interest but require a certain portion of the credit facilities to be deposited at the banks) feature interest-only monthly payments with a balloon payment for the entire principal at the maturity of the loan. For the long term loans from credit union, in addition to the quarterly interest payments, they require semi-annual principal repayment with one large balloon payment at maturity. The CNFTFL lease financing requires quarterly payment of interest and every six months payments of principal , ranging from approximately $4.4 million to approximately $63,000 during the entire three-year term.

Efforts to Mitigate the Net Working Capital Deficit

Amounts dues to related parties were approximately $858,158 as of September 30, 2014, including rent payable due to a related party of $186,025 (see “Relocation of Facilities and Sale of Headquarters Compound Real Properties” below) and accrued interest payable included in other payables and accrued liabilities of $672,133 to our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Mr. Zhenyong Liu (see “Moratorium on interest for the Related Party Loan Collection” below). Excluding the related party payables, the net working capital deficit as of September 30, 2014 was $11,566,356.

Moratorium of interest for the Related Party Loan Collection

On March 25, 2014, our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Zhenyong Liu, agreed in writing to permit the Company to continue to postpone the repayment of the accrued interest on his loan to Orient Paper HB until the Company’s financial statements show a satisfactory working capital level. The accrued interest owned to Mr. Liu was approximately $672,133, which was recorded in other payables and accrued liabilities as part of the currently liabilities in the condensed financial statement as of September 30, 2014.

Registered Direct Offering

On August 27, 2014, we entered into a definitive agreement with an institutional investor for a registered direct placement of $2,500,000 of shares of common stock at a price of $1.60 per share. In addition, we issued to the investor warrants to purchase up to 781,250 shares of common stock. The warrants have an exercise price of $1.70 per share and are exercisable for five years following issuance. We received net proceeds of $2,311,002 on September 3, 2014, when the placement closed. The majority of the proceeds have been transferred to our wholly-foreign owned subsidiary Baoding Shengde Paper Co., Ltd. pursuant to a shareholder working capital loan. Baoding Shengde is in the process of incorporating a new paper wholesale company in the City of Beijing. The new company’s registered capital will be RMB 10 million, or approximately USD 1.6 million, and will be engaged in the business of distribution of the tissue paper that will be manufactured by our PM8 production line (under construction) and various paper products made by third parties.

Our loan-to-equity ratio was 34.81% as of September 30, 2014. Our debt-asset ratio was 25.82% as of September 30, 2014. According to a search conducted by www.chinadiaoyan.com, the industry average of debt-asset ratio was 53.06% as of September 30, 2013 for the 20 large paper mills that are publicly listed in China. Of the 20 paper mill companies publicly listed in China, the top six (ranked by total revenue) all had debt-asset ratio exceeding 60%. As long as we are able to manage our short-term liquidity through various efforts described above, we believe that our overall financial condition, compared to our Chinese peers, is reasonably healthy and should allow us to reasonably expand our financial debt leverage to provide capital for future growth.

35

From time to time, we investigate financing opportunities with banks and other financial institutions and investors both inside and outside of China, and we may seek long-term financings to pay off liabilities with shorter terms. We cannot guarantee that our efforts will be successful. As of the date of this report, we have not entered into any material binding agreement for additional long-term financing. There can be no assurance that we will be able to secure such financing either from banks or through debt or equity investments from investors. If we are unable to obtain sufficient outside financing, whether short-term or long-term, or generate sufficient operating cash flow internally, the progress of our construction or renovation projects may be slowed down or otherwise negatively affected. We may also have to curtail the scope of our capital expenditure projects or to shelve some components of such projects (for example, delay the installation of PM9 until additional capital resources are available).

Financing with Sale-Leaseback

The Company entered into a sale-leaseback arrangement (the “Lease Financing Agreement”) with China National Foreign Trade Financial & Leasing Co., Ltd (“CNFTFL”) on June 16, 2013, for a total financing proceeds in the amount of RMB150 million (approximately US$24 million). Under the sale-leaseback arrangement, Orient Paper HB sold certain of its paper manufacturing equipment (the “Leased Equipment”) to CNFTFL for an amount of RMB 150 million (approximately US$24 million). Concurrent with the sale of equipment, Orient Paper HB leased back all of the equipment sold to CNFTFL for a lease term of three years. At the end of the lease term, Orient Paper HB may pay a nominal purchase price of RMB 15,000 (approximately $2,400) to CNFTFL and buy back all of the Leased Equipment. The sale-leaseback is treated by the Company as a mere financing and capital lease transaction, rather than a sale of assets (under which gain or loss is immediately recognized) under ASC 840-40-25-4. All of the Leased Equipment is included as part of the property, plant and equipment of the Company as of September 30, 2014; while the net present value of the minimum lease payment (including a lease service charge equal to 5.55% of the amount financed) was recorded as obligations under capital lease and was calculated with CNFTFL’s implicit interest rate of 6.15% per annum and stated at $25,750,170 at the inception of the lease on June 16, 2013. As of September 30, 2014, the balance of the long-term obligations under capital lease was $8,135,569, which is net of its current portion in the amount of $8,186,242.

Total interest expenses for the sale-leaseback arrangement for the three months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013 were $207,830 and $114,041, respectively. Total interest expenses for the sale-leaseback arrangement for nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013 were $717,058 and $174,495, respectively.

As a result of the sale, a deferred gain on sale of Leased Equipment in the amount of $1,379,282 was created at the closing of the transaction and presented as a non-current liability. The deferred gain would be amortized by the Company over the lease term and would be used to offset the depreciation of the Leased Equipment, which was recorded at the new cost of $25,823,414 as of September 30, 2014.

As part of the sale-leaseback transaction, Orient Paper HB entered into a Collateral Agreement with CNFTFL and pledged the land use right in the amount of approximately $7,337,989 on some 58,566 square meters of land as collateral for the lease. In addition to Orient Paper HB’s collateral, Orient Paper Shengde also entered into a Guarantee Contract with CNFTFL on September 16, 2013. Under the Guarantee Contract, Orient Paper Shengde agrees to guarantee Orient Paper HB’s performance under the lease and agrees to pledge essentially all of its production equipment as additional collateral. Net book value of Orient Paper Shengde’s asset guarantee was $33,820,493 as of September 30, 2014.

Relocation of Facilities and Sale of Headquarters Compound Real Properties

A Xushui County urban redevelopment plan mandates that the current site of our Headquarters Compound and its neighboring area be reserved for residential use only and that, like other manufacturers in the covered area, we will be required to eventually cease all operations currently conducted on our Headquarters Compound site. In order to comply with this government mandate, we intend to relocate our offices and facilities to a new site. To that end, we have entered into negotiations concerning the potential sale of this property and all of the buildings and facilities located thereon (the “Potential Sale”) with Hebei Fangsheng Real Estate Development Co., Ltd. (“Hebei Fangsheng”), a real estate development company formed and owned by Mr. Zhenyong Liu, our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer and his family. We have previously announced that we intended to pursue negotiations with respect to the Potential Sale on an arm’s length basis with Hebei Fangsheng, and would only consummate such Potential Sale on terms that would be not less advantageous to us than as if Hebei Fangsheng were an independent, unaffiliated party. We would only enter into legally binding agreements with Hebei Fangsheng in connection with the Potential Sale upon appraisals by independent appraisal firms, and a finding by our Audit Committee that these conditions have been met.

On August 7, 2013 the Company’s Audit Committee and the Board of Directors approved the sale of the land use right of the Headquarters Compound (the “LUR”), the office building and essentially all industrial-use buildings in the Headquarters Compound (the “Industrial Buildings”), and three employee dormitory buildings located within the Headquarters Compound (the “Dormitories”) to Hebei Fangsheng for cash prices of approximately $2.77 million, $1.15 million, and $4.31 million, respectively. In connection with the sale of the Industrial Buildings, Hebei Fangsheng agreed to lease the Industrial Buildings back to the Company for its original use for a term of up to three years, with an annual rental payment of approximately $162,620. As a condition for the sale of the Dormitories, Hebei Fangsheng agreed that it would act as an agent for the Company, which is not qualified to sell residential housing units in China, and that it is obligated to sell all of the 132 apartment units in the Dormitories to qualified employees of the Company at its acquisition price. Hebei Fangsheng further represents that it will not seek to profit from the resale of the Dormitories units and will allow the Company to inspect the books and records of the sale upon completion of the resale of the Dormitories units to ensure the objectives are achieved.

36

The sale was conducted on an arms-length basis, and was reviewed by the Company’s Audit Committee and approved by the Board of Directors. The $2.77 million sale price of the industrial land use right was determined based on a government designated appraisal, which was 3.35% higher than a second independent appraisal commissioned by the Company. The $1.15 million sale price of the Industrial Buildings was determined by negotiation between the Company and Hebei Fangsheng and is equal to the appraised value based on the assumption that the use of the buildings would be continued until they are retired. Based on the assumption that such buildings would have to be torn down to comply with the re-zoning, a second independent appraisal obtained by the Company put the value at $0.4 million. Although the Company and Hebei Fangsheng agree to set the sale price of the Dormitories at the Company’s original construction cost of the three dormitory buildings for $4.31 million, an independent appraisal shows that the value for the three buildings as employee dormitories was $4.64 million.

Sales of the LUR and the Industrial Buildings were completed in 2013, with a gain on disposal of approximately $84,972. We sold the dormitories on August 15, 2014, with a gain on disposal of approximately $203,488 that was recognized for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014.

Capital Expenditure Commitment as of September 30, 2014

We finance our daily operations mainly by cash flows generated from our business operations and loans from banking institutions (including leasing companies) and our major shareholders. Major capital expenditures in the quarter ended September 30, 2014 were primarily financed by cash flows generated from business operations. As of September 30, 2014, we had approximately $37.7 million in capital expenditure commitments that were mainly related to the construction costs of manufacturing equipment and other facilities in a new industrial park in Wei County of Hebei, China, where we expect to eventually build two tissue paper production lines (PM8 and PM9), and install other paper production machinery in the future.

Capital Expenditures

In addition to the capital commitments of $37.7 million, our capital expenditures for the next 18 months are expected to be approximately $30.0 million, which includes budgeted costs for the projects below:

New Production Lines at the Wei County Industrial Park

In November 2012, we entered into a 15-year land lease with a land investment company in Wei County for the purpose of developing the 49.4 acres of land into the base of our next capacity expansion. In December 2012, we signed a contract with an equipment contractor in Shanghai to build the first of our two tissue paper production lines in Wei County. The two production lines, each having production capacity of 15,000 tonnes/year, will be designated as PM8 and PM9 upon completion. Total estimated cost of the Wei County tissue paper project may be up to approximately $130 million, including the estimated costs of general infrastructure and administrative facilities such as warehouses, offices, dorms and landscaping, of up to $79 million and the estimated costs for the two paper machines and related packaging equipment of up to $51 million. We had previously estimated that the installation and test operations of PM8 could be completed in the second half of year 2014. However, we are now postponing the estimated completion date of PM8 to be in the second half of 2015, as we have experienced construction and budget funding delays in the last few months. We do not believe the possible delay of completion of PM8 will cause any major financial impact on our 2014 annual earnings, as we had previously budgeted no significant revenue or net earnings contribution from the PM8 tissue paper for the year of 2014.

We have plans for several capital expenditure projects for the fourth quarter of 2014 and for 2015. These projects include: (1) four workshops, four warehouses, an office building, employee cafeteria, and two employee dormitory buildings, as well as infrastructure and landscaping projects in the Wei County Industrial Park for an estimated cost of $19.0 million (which is in addition to the contractual commitments that we have already entered into as of September 30, 2014), (2) a second 15,000 tonnes/year tissue paper production line (to be designated as PM9) for an estimated cost of $7.8 million. Together with the contractual commitments of $37.7 million that we have already entered into as of September 30, 2014, we estimate that total capital expenditure for the next 18 months to be approximately $64.5 million, which is expected to be funded by additional debt financing, cash on hand and cash flows generated from our own operations.

Relocation of Digital Photo Paper PM4 and PM5 Production Lines

We also decided to relocate our digital photo paper production lines (PM4 and PM5), as well as related chemical and packaging equipment, from the workshops currently located in our Headquarters Compound to a new location that is right across the street from our Xushui Paper Mill (the “Xushui Mill Annex”). We purchased the land use rights of the 58,566 square meters Xushui Mill Annex for approximately $7.7 million in April 2012 and would like to build three industrial buildings for the digital photo paper operations and dormitory for factory workers and new offices to consolidate our Xushui County operations. As of September 30, 2014, the PM4 and PM5 production lines have already been disassembled and are being transferred to the Xushui Mill Annex for installation.

Total cost of the PM4 and PM5 production line relocation is estimated to be approximately $1.6 million. Building construction costs at the Xushui Mill Annex is estimated to be an additional $7.5 million for the next two years. As of September 30, 2014, we have already entered into contracts related to the PM4 and PM5 production line relocation project for approximately $5.9 million.

37

How We Satisfy Capital Expenditure Commitments

We expect to finance our capital expenditure commitments mainly by cash flows internally generated from our business operations and possibly more debt financings to support the future capital expenditure and capacity expansions. We expect to satisfy all of our capital expenditure commitments that were outstanding as of September 30, 2014 in the next 12-24 months. We generated approximately $30 million of cash from our operating activities during 2013 and have had more than $35 million of cash generated from operating activities (including net cash from various notes payable) during the first nine months of year 2014.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Our cash and cash equivalents as of September 30, 2014 was $6,930,444, an increase of $3,799,281 from $3,131,163 as of December 31, 2013. The increase of cash and cash equivalents during the nine months ended September 30, 2014 was attributable to a number of other factors including the following:

i. Net cash provided by operating activities

Net cash provided by operating activities was $35,785,165 for the nine months ended September 30, 2014. The balance represented an increase of $17,606,260 or 96.85% from $18,178,905 for the same period in 2013. The net income of the nine months ended September 30, 2014 was $9,478,346, representing a decrease of $15,689 or 0.17% from $9,494,035 for the first nine months of 2013. Nevertheless, changes in various asset and liability account balances throughout the first nine months of 2014 also contributed to the net change in cash generated from operating activities. Chief among such changes is the additional notes payable (in the forms of bank acceptance note or commercial acceptance note, unique ways for commercial banks in China to guarantee the accounts payable payment for an extended term, usually 6 to 12 months) in the amount of $16,262,014 that we issued with the guarantee from Bank of Hebei, the Commercial Bank of the City of Zhangjiakou and Shanghai Pudong Development Bank during the nine months ended September 30, 2014. There was also a decrease of $4,375,716 in the ending inventory balance as of September 30, 2014 (and as an increase to net cash for cash flow purposes) and an increase in other payables and accrued liabilities for $618,254 (also as an increase to net cash). In addition, the Company had non-cash expenses in depreciation and amortization in the amount of $5,877,824 in the first nine months of 2014.

ii. Net cash used in investing activities

We incurred $22,845,662 in net cash expenditures in investing activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2014, compared to $44,495,431 for the same period in the previous year of 2013. Essentially, all expenditures in the nine months ended September 30, 2014 were the progress payments for the construction of our first tissue paper production line PM8 and related facilities, including a new office, two employee dormitories, a cafeteria, a pulping station, three paper mill workshops and maintenance workshops, and four warehouses at the Wei County industrial park in Wei County, Hebei province.

iii. Net cash used in financing activities

Net cash used in financing activities was $9,101,920 for the nine months ended September 30, 2014, as compared to net cash provided by financing activities in the amount of $26,587,366 for the same period in 2013. During the nine months ended September 30, 2014, we deposited an additional $8,944,108 with Bank of Hebei, the Commercial Bank of the City of Zhangjiakou and Shanghai Pudong Development Bank as condition for the issuance of notes payable in an additional amount of $16,262,014. The deposit is recorded as part of our restricted cash and is presented as a cash outflow for financing activities. We have also made principal repayment in the amount of $4,095,015 toward the balance of our sale-leaseback obligation with CNFTFL. We have also received proceeds from short-term working capital loans in the amount of $6,504,805, as well as making repayments for such short-term working capital loans in the amount of $4,878,604 during the nine months ended September 30, 2014. Finally, on September 3, 2014, we received the net proceeds of $2,311,002 from a group of investors from a $2.5 million registered direct offering of our common stock for working capital purposes.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The Company’s financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, which require us 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 revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Management makes these estimates using the best information available at the time the estimates are made. However, actual results could differ materially from those estimates. The most critical accounting policies are listed below:

Revenue Recognition Policy

The Company recognizes revenue when goods are delivered and a formal arrangement exists, the price is fixed or determinable, the delivery is completed, no other significant obligations of the Company exist, and collectability is reasonably assured. Goods are considered delivered when the customer’s truck picks up goods at our finished goods inventory warehouse.

Long-Lived Assets

The Company evaluates the recoverability of long-lived assets and the related estimated remaining useful lives when events or circumstances lead management to believe that the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable and the undiscounted cash flows estimated to be generated by those assets are less than the assets’ carrying amount. In such circumstances, those assets are written down to estimated fair value. Our judgments regarding the existence of impairment indicators are based on market conditions, assumptions for operational performance of our businesses, and possible government policy toward operating efficiency of the Chinese paper manufacturing industry. For the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2014, no events or circumstances occurred for which an evaluation of the recoverability of long-lived assets was required. We are currently not aware of any events or circumstances that may indicate any need to record such impairment in the future.

Foreign Currency Translation

The functional currency of Orient Paper HB and Orient Paper Shengde is the Chinese Yuan Renminbi (“RMB”). Under ASC Topic 830-30, all assets and liabilities are translated into United States dollars using the current exchange rate at the end of each fiscal period. The current exchange rates used by the Company as of September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 to translate the Chinese RMB to the U.S. Dollars are 6.1525:1 and 6.1122:1, respectively. Revenues and expenses are translated using the prevailing average exchange rates at 6.1493:1, and 6.2115:1 for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. Translation adjustments are included in other comprehensive income (loss).

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

None.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-15, Presentation of Financial Statements—Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40): Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern, which are intended to define management’s responsibility to evaluate whether there is substantial doubt about an organization’s ability to continue as a going concern and to provide related footnote disclosures. Under GAAP, financial statements are prepared under the presumption that the reporting organization will continue to operate as a going concern, except in limited circumstances. It lacks guidance about management’s responsibility to evaluate whether there is substantial doubt about the organization’s ability to continue as a going concern or to provide related footnote disclosures. This amendment provides guidance to an organization’s management, with principles and definitions that are intended to reduce diversity in the timing and content of disclosures that are commonly provided by organizations today in the financial statement footnotes.

The amendment is effective for annual periods ending after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016. Early application is permitted for annual or interim reporting periods for which the financial statements have not previously been issued. Currently, the Company is evaluating the impact of the pending adoption of ASU 2014-14 on the disclosure of the consolidated financial statements.

Item 3. | Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk.

Foreign Exchange Risk

While our reporting currency is the US dollar, almost all of our consolidated revenues and consolidated costs and expenses are denominated in RMB. All of our assets are denominated in RMB except for some cash and cash equivalents. As a result, we are exposed to foreign exchange risk as our revenues and results of operations may be affected by fluctuations in the exchange rate between US dollar and RMB. If the RMB depreciates against the US dollar, the value of our RMB revenues, earnings and assets as expressed in our US dollar financial statements will decline. We have not entered into any hedging transactions in an effort to reduce our exposure to foreign exchange risk.

Inflation

Although we are generally able to pass along minor incremental cost inflation to our customers, inflationary factors such as increases in the costs of our products and overhead costs may adversely affect our operating results. We do not believe that inflation in China has had a material impact on our financial position or results of operations to date, a high rate of inflation in the future may have an adverse effect on our ability to maintain current levels of gross margin and selling and distribution, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of net revenues if the selling prices of our products do not increase to cope with these increased costs.

Item 4. | Controls and Procedures.

As required by Rule 13a-15 of the Securities Exchange Act, as amended (the “Securities Act”), we have evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, which were designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives. This evaluation was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer. Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer have concluded that, as of September 30, 2014, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level to ensure (1) that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and (2) information required to be disclosed by us in our reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no changes with respect to our internal control over financial reporting that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting in the quarterly period ended September 30, 2014.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. | Legal Proceedings.

None.

Item 1A. | Risk Factors.

Other than the additional risk factor set forth below, information about risk factors for the three months ended September 30, 2014, does not differ materially from that set forth in Part I, Item 1A of the Company’s 2013 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Because of a working capital deficit, we may not be able to continue as a going concern.

There is doubt as to our ability to continue as a going concern. As of September 30, 2014, the Company had current assets of $30,281,704 and current liabilities of $42,706,218 (including amounts due to related parties of $858,158), resulting in a working capital deficit of approximately $12,424,514; while as of December 31, 2013, the Company had current assets of $25,953,328 and current liabilities of $28,372,723 (including amounts due to related parties of $2,266,961), resulting in a working capital deficit of approximately $2,419,395. We are currently seeking to restructure the term of our liabilities by raising funds through long-term loans to pay off liabilities with shorter terms. Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon obtaining the necessary financing or negotiating the terms of the existing short-term liabilities to meet our current and future liquidity needs. Although management believes it can secure financial resources to satisfy the Company's current liabilities and the capital expenditure needs in the next 12 months, there can be no guarantee that we can secure these financial resources. Therefore, there is a substantial doubt about the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern.

In the event that we fail to raise funds sufficient to meet our liquidity needs, we may be forced to substantially curtail our operations or otherwise take measures that would materially and adversely affect our business, results of operations and business prospects. Our financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if we are unable to continue as a going concern. Should the going concern assumption not be appropriate and we are not able to realize our assets and settle our liabilities, commitments and contingencies in the normal course of operations, adjustments would be required to our consolidated financial statements to the amounts and classifications of assets and liabilities, and these adjustments could be significant. If we could not continue as a going concern, we may be forced to liquidate and you may lose your investment in the Company.

Item 3. | Defaults Upon Senior Securities.
