C AUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
 
This Quarterly Report on Form 10- Q for Green Builders, Inc. (“we,” “us,” or the “Company”) contains forward-looking statements.  You can identify these statements by forward-looking words such as “may,” “will,” “expect,” “intend,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” and “continue” or similar words.  Forward-looking statements include information concerning possible or assumed future business success or financial results.  You should read statements that contain these words carefully because they discuss future expectations and plans, which contain projections of future results of operations or financial conditions or state other forward-looking information. We believe that it is important to communicate future expectations to investors. However, there may be events in the future that we are not able to accurately predict or control. Accordingly, we do not undertake any obligation to update any forward-looking statements for any reason, even if new information becomes available or other events occur in the future.
 
By their very nature, forward-looking statements involve inherent risks and uncertainties, both general and specific, and risks that outcomes implied by forward-looking statements will not be achieved. We caution readers not to place undue reliance on these statements as a number of important factors could cause the actual results to differ materially from the beliefs, plans, objectives, expectations and anticipations, estimates and intentions expressed in such forward-looking statements.

(1)         Organization and Business Activity
 
Green Builders, Inc., (the “Company”), is a Texas corporation formerly known as Wilson Holdings, Inc.  Effective April 4, 2008, Wilson Holdings, Inc, a Nevada corporation, completed its reincorporation to the State of Texas pursuant to the Plan of Conversion as ratified by the shareholders at the 2008 annual meeting of shareholders held on April 3, 2008.  As part of the reincorporation, a new Certificate of Formation was adopted and Wilson Holdings, Inc.’s corporate name was changed to Green Builders, Inc., and the Certificate of Formation will now govern the rights of holders of the Company’s common stock.  The Company has been using the name “Green Builders” in its regular business operations since June 2007 and will continue to do so.  Effective April 8, 2008, the Company’s common stock began trading under the symbol “GBH” on the NYSE Alternext US LLC (formerly the American Stock Exchange ) .
 
Effective October 11, 2005 pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Reorganization dated as of September 2, 2005 by and among Wilson Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation, a majority of its stockholders, Wilson Family Communities, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“WFC”) and Wilson Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, WFC and Wilson Acquisition Corp. merged and WFC became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company.
 
The financial statements are presented on a going concern basis.  The Company has experienced significant losses and expects to continue to generate negative cash flows from operations.  This raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern.  The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern will depend upon its ability to restructure its existing debt and obtain additional capital.  Failure to restructure and obtain additional capital would result in a depletion of its available funds.
 
(2)         Liquidity and Capital Resources
 
Liquidity
 
The Company’s growth will require substantial amounts of cash for earnest money deposits, development costs, interest payments and homebuilding costs. Until the Company begins to sell an adequate number of lots and homes to cover its monthly operating expenses, sales and marketing, general and administrative costs will deplete cash.   Due to current market conditions and slow home and land sales, the Company will need to obtain additional capital.  In addition the Company is seeking additional capital to support future growth and current operations for the next twelve months.
 
On December 31, 2008 the Company had approximately $2.2 million in cash and cash equivalents. The Company completed a public offering of its common stock in May 2007, resulting in net proceeds of approximately $14 million.
 
On June 29, 2007, Wilson Family Communities entered into a $55 million revolving credit facility (the “Credit Facility”) with a syndicate of banks led by RBC Bank (formerly RBC Centura Bank), as administrative agent.  International Bank of Commerce, Laredo, Texas (“IBC Bank”) and Franklin Bank, S.S.B. (“Franklin Bank”) are the other two banks that make up the syndicate of banks.  The Credit Facility was reduced to $30 million in June 2008.  The initial maturity date for the Credit Facility was June 29, 2008.  The Company entered into an agreement to extend the maturity date to October 1, 2008.  On October 1, 2008, the Credit Facility expired pursuant to its terms.  Although the Company is currently out of compliance with certain covenants set forth in the Borrowing Base Agreement under the Loan Agreement, RBC and IBC have continued to make amounts available to WFC pursuant to the Loan Agreement for loans made prior to the expiration of the facility.   The Company received notification on November 7, 2008 that Franklin Bank was closed by the Texas Department of Savings and Mortgage Lending and the FDIC was named Receiver.
 
Green Builders has guaranteed the obligations of Wilson Family Communities under the Credit Facility.  The amount available at any time under the Credit Facility for revolving credit loans or the issuance of letters of credit is determined by a borrowing base. The borrowing base is calculated as the sum of the values for homes and lots in the subdivision to be developed as agreed by WFC and the agent.  The Company’s obligations under the Credit Facility will be secured by the assets of each subdivision to be developed with the proceeds of loans available under the Credit Facility.
 
4

 
Outstanding borrowings under the Credit Facility bear interest at the prime rate plus 0.25%, with a floor of 5.5%.  The Company is charged a letter of credit fee equal to 1.10% of each letter of credit issued under the Credit Facility. The Company may elect to prepay the Credit Facility at any time without premium or penalty.  Quarterly principal reductions are required during the final 12 months of the term.
 
The Credit Facility contains customary covenants limiting the ability to take certain actions, including covenants that:
 
·  
affect how the Company can develop its properties;
·  
limit the ability to pay dividends and other restricted payments;
·  
limit the ability to place liens on its property;
·  
limit the ability to engage in mergers and acquisitions and dispositions of assets;
·  
require the Company to maintain a minimum net worth of $20,000,000, including subordinated debt (although the minimum net worth may be $17,000,000 for one quarter);
·  
prohibit the ratio of debt (excluding convertible debt) to equity (including convertible debt) from exceeding 2.0 to 1.0 thereafter;
·  
require the Company to maintain working capital of at least $15,000,000; and
·  
limit the number of completed speculative homes to 12% of the total borrowing base available for homes.
 
An event of default will occur under the Credit Facility if certain events occur, including the following:
 
·  
a failure to pay principal or interest on any loan under the Credit Facility;
·  
the inaccuracy of a representation or warranty when made;
·  
the failure to observe or perform covenants or agreements;
·  
an event of default beyond any applicable grace period with respect to any other indebtedness;
·  
the commencement of proceedings under federal, state or foreign bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or similar laws;
·  
any loan document, or any lien created thereunder, ceases to be in full force and effect;
·  
the entry of a judgment greater than $1,000,000 that remains undischarged; or
·  
a change of control.
 
 
If an event of default occurs under the Credit Facility, then the lenders may: (1) terminate their commitments under the Credit Facility; (2) declare any outstanding indebtedness under the Credit Facility to be immediately due and payable; and (3) foreclose on the collateral securing the obligations.  The Company is currently out of compliance with the terms of the Borrowing Base Agreement under the Credit Facility.  The Company is not in compliance with the tangible net worth, the ratio of debt to equity, working capital, number of completed speculative homes and number of land and developed lot loans covenants.  If the Company is unable to obtain a waiver for the noncompliance its obligation to repay indebtedness outstanding under the facility, its term loans, and its outstanding note indentures could be accelerated in full. The Company can give no assurance that in such an event, the Company would have, or be able to obtain, sufficient funds to pay all debt required to repay.
 
5

 
In December 2005 and September 2006, the Company entered into Securities Purchase Agreements with certain investors for the sale of Convertible Promissory Notes.  Pursuant to the cross-default provisions of the Securities Purchase Agreements, a default under its Credit Facility triggers defaults under the Securities Purchase Agreements.  In the event that the Company’s non-compliance with the Credit Facility continues, the holders of a majority of the Notes issued under the Securities Purchase Agreement could elect to demand the acceleration of all amounts owed under these Notes.  The Company does not have the cash available to repay these amounts or the amounts owed under the Credit Facility.  The Company has discussed its non-compliance with certain investors under the Securities Purchase Agreements but these note holders have not initiated the process under the Securities Purchase Agreements that would allow them to accelerate the Company’s obligations under the Securities Purchase Agreements or take any other remedial action.  The Company intends to negotiate with all investors under the Securities Purchase Agreements to reach a mutually satisfactory resolution and the Company intends to cooperate with the Credit Facility lenders to regain compliance with the terms of the Credit Facility.
 
Capital Resources
 
The Company has raised approximately $16.5 million of subordinated convertible debt, and approximately $14 million in a public offering of its common stock completed in May 2007.  The Company entered into a $55 million revolving Credit Facility that was reduced to $30 million in June 2008.  The initial maturity date for the Credit Facility was June 29, 2008.  We entered into an agreement to extend the maturity date to October 1, 2008.  On October 1, 2008, the Credit Facility expired pursuant to its terms.  Although WFC is currently out of compliance with certain covenants set forth in the Borrowing Base Agreement under the Loan Agreement, RBC and IBC have continued to make amounts available to WFC pursuant to the Loan Agreement for loans made prior to the expiration of the facility.  We were notified on November 7, 2008 that Franklin Bank was closed by the Texas Department of Savings and Mortgage Lending and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (the “FDIC”) was named Receiver.  Land and homes under construction comprise the majority of the Company’s assets. These assets have suffered devaluation due to the downturn in the housing and real estate market for central Texas.  The Company is considering selling tracts of commercial and residential land in order to increase sales revenues and increase cash.  The Company is also in negotiation to deed in lieu of foreclosure some of its land positions.  The Company expects to incur losses in 2009.  Due to current market conditions and slow home and land sales, it is anticipated that the Company will need additional capital to support operations for the next twelve months.
 
 (3)         Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
 
(a)           Revenue Recognition
 
Revenues from property sales are recognized in accordance with SFAS No. 66, “Accounting for Sales of Real Estate.”  Revenues from land development services to builders are recognized when the properties associated with the services are sold, when the risks and rewards of ownership are transferred to the buyer and when the consideration has been received, or the title company has processed payment.  For projects that are consolidated, homebuilding revenues and services will be categorized as homebuilding revenues and revenues from property sales or options will be categorized as land sales.
 
(b)           Cash and Cash Equivalents
 
For purposes of the statements of cash flows, the Company considers all short term, highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash and cash equivalents.
 
(c)           Inventory
 
Inventory is stated at cost unless it is determined to be impaired, in which case the impaired inventory would be written down to the fair market value.  Inventory costs include land, land development costs, deposits on land purchase contracts, model home construction costs, homebuilding costs, interest and real estate taxes incurred during development and construction phases.
 
6

 
(d)           Use of Estimates
 
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.  Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates.
 
The Company has estimated and accrued liabilities for real estate property taxes on its purchased land in anticipation of development, and other liabilities including the beneficial conversion liability, the fair value of warrants and options.  To the extent that the estimates are dramatically different to the actual amounts, it could have a material effect on the financial statements.
 
(f)           Municipal Utility and Water District Receivables
 
The Company owns one property located in a Municipal Utility District (MUD) and one property located in a Water Control and Improvement District (WCID ) (collectively, the “Districts” ). The Company incurs development costs for water, sewage lines and associated treatment plants and other development costs and fees for these properties. Under the agreement with the  Districts , the Company expects to be reimbursed partially for the above developments costs. The Districts will issue bonds to repay the Company, once the property has sufficient assessed value for the District taxes to repay the bonds. As the project is completed and homes are sold within the  Districts , the assessed value increases. It can take several years before the assessed value is sufficient to provide sufficient tax revenue for the Company to recapture its costs.  The Company has estimated that it will recover approximately 50% to 100% of eligible costs spent through December 31, 2008.  The Company has completed Phase 1 for the Rutherford West project and has approximately $1.1 million of Water Control and Improvement District reimbursements included in inventory that it anticipates it will collect from bond issuances made by the district.  When the reimbursements are received they will be recorded as reductions in the related asset’s balance. The Districts will pay for property set aside for the preservation of endangered species, greenbelts and similar uses.  To the extent that the estimated reimbursements are dramatically different to the actual reimbursements, it could have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements.
 
(f)           Subordinated Convertible Debt
 
The Company’s subordinated convertible debt and the related warrants have been accounted for in accordance with Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) No. 98-5, “Accounting for Convertible Securities with Beneficial Conversion Features or Contingently Adjustable Conversion Ratios,” EITF No. 00-19, “Accounting for Derivative Financial Instruments Indexed to, and Potentially Settled in, a Company’s Own Stock,” EITF 00-27, “Application of issue 98-5 to Certain Convertible Instruments”, EITF 05-02 “Meaning of ‘Conventional Convertible Debt Instrument’ in Issue No. 00-19”, and EITF 05-04 “The Effect of a Liquidated Damages Clause on a Freestanding Financial Instrument Subject to Issue No. 00-19 updated with FSP EITF 00-19-2,  “Accounting for Registration Payment Arrangements”.
 
(g)           Debt Restructuring
 
The Company’s debt restructuring agreement has been accounted for in accordance with accordance with SFAS 15, “Accounting by Debtors and Creditors for Troubled Debt Restructuring”.  The Company has treated the related warrants issued in accordance with APB 14, “Accounting for Convertible Debt and Debt Issued with Stock Purchase Warrants”.
 
(h)           Loss per Common Share
 
Earnings per share are accounted for in accordance with SFAS No. 128, “Earnings per Share,” which requires a dual presentation of basic and diluted earnings per share on the face of the statements of earnings.  Basic loss per share is based on the weighted effect of common shares issued and outstanding, and is calculated by dividing net loss by the weighted average shares outstanding during the period. Diluted loss per share is calculated by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of common shares used in the basic loss per share calculation plus the number of common shares that would be issued assuming exercise or conversion of all potentially dilutive common shares outstanding.
 
7

 
The Company has issued stock options and warrants convertible into shares of common stock. These shares and warrants have been excluded from loss per share at December 31, 2008 and 2007 because the effect would be anti-dilutive.  The stock options and warrants are convertible into common stock as summarized in the table below:

In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements” (“SFAS 157”), which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS 157 applies under other accounting pronouncements that require or permit fair value measurements and does not require any new fair value measurements. The provisions of SFAS 157 are effective for the Company beginning with its fiscal year 2009.  The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.
 
In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities — including an amendment of FASB Statement No. 115.” The statement permits entities to choose to measure certain financial assets and liabilities at fair value. Unrealized gains and losses on items for which the fair value option has been elected are reported in earnings. SFAS No. 159 is effective in fiscal year 2009.  The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.
 
In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141(R), “Business Combinations” (FAS 141(R)), which establishes accounting principles and disclosure requirements for all transactions in which a company obtains control over another business.  The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of SFAS No. 141; however, it is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
 
In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, “Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements” (FAS 160), which prescribes the accounting by a parent company for minority interests held by other parties in a subsidiary of the parent company.  The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of SFAS No. 160; however, it is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
 
 
(4)         Inventory
 
The Company’s land and land development  inventory includes land costs, prepaid development costs, development costs, option money and earnest money on land purchase options.  Homebuilding inventory represents model homes, speculative homes under construction and units sold and under construction.  Earnest money deposits for land costs and development costs on land under option, not owned, totaled approximately $575,000 at December 31, 2008 and September 30, 2008 respectively, of which all $575,000 is non-refundable if the Company does not exercise the option and purchase the land.
 
8

 
Of the earnest money capitalized, $400,000 is for the remaining 30 acres under option in Elm Grove.  The Company’s land purchase contract called for a purchase of the acreage in December 2008.  The purchase price is approximately $1.3 million less the outstanding earnest money.  A drainage issue created by another developer has altered the recorded plat and the manner in which the land was represented to the Company.  A temporary easement was utilized so the developer could install a drainage channel on the Company’s property; however, the current location of the drainage channel does not allow the Company to develop the land in accordance with the plat.  The Company is in negotiations with the seller and the developer regarding these issues.  The city will not issue any new permits to the developer, until the Company and the other developer have agreed on a solution to fix the drainage issue.  Pending the resolution of the drainage issues the Company will maintain the earnest money on its balance sheet.
 
As of December 31, 2008 the Company owned approximately 1,209 acres of unfinished acreage.  Below is a description of the property completed, owned or under contract by the Company at December 31, 2008:
 
Rutherford West – Rutherford West is a residential community located southwest of Austin. Rutherford West is planned as an “earth-friendly” acreage development and each lot includes a deed restricted conservation easement.  The Company commenced the development of this project in October 2006 and has completed development on a total of 58 lots in Phase 1.
 
Georgetown   Village     Georgetown Village is a mixed use master-planned development in Williamson County, located north of Austin, Texas in Georgetown.  The Company purchased the land for this project pursuant to an option contract in August 2005.  Under the option contract the Company is required to purchase a minimum of 30 acres per year through 2017.  The Company commenced the development of this project in January 2006.  The Company completed development on a total of 120 lots in Section 6 and 100 lots in Section 9.
 
Villages of New Sweden   New Sweden is a master planned, mixed-use community which includes single family residential homes, commercial properties, an onsite school, an amenity center, a fire station, and an open green space in the Pflugerville, Texas school district.  The Company purchased the land for this project in October 2005 with a combination of bank financing, seller financing and cash on hand.

In January 2009, the Company entered into an agreement with Graham Mortgage Capital to modify the debt agreement for the $7.3 million loan for Rutherford West and the $4.7 million loan for New Sweden. As of December 31, 2008 the Company had $380,823 in accrued interest for Rutherford West and $244,792 in accrued interest for New Sweden. The agreement allows deferral of the $380,823 and $244,792 of accrued interest until December 31, 2009 or until the property is sold. Effective January 1, 2009, the Company will begin paying 2% interest on each loan (Modified Interest Payment) and will accrue an additional 12% interest on the loan. In exchange for entering into the agreement the Company will issue a warrant for the purchase of 1.5% of the issued and outstanding shares at December 31, 2009. The warrants call for a $5.00 strike price and can be exercised from January 1, 2010 through December 31, 2012. The Company will be required to make monthly payments for 1/12th of the estimated 2009 property taxes. The agreement calls for the Company to list the property and retain a broker to market the property. In the event the Company receives an offer for a price less than sufficient to satisfy the note payment, the Company must notify the Lender who will at its sole discretion accept or reject the offer. In the event that the property is not sold by December 31, 2009, the Deed (in Lieu of Foreclosure) will be released, and provided that all Modified Interest Payments and real estate taxes for 2009 which are due on January 31, 2010 have been paid, the Corporate Guaranty will be returned, and the Borrower and Holder shall exchange mutual releases.

The Company will be required to make monthly payments for 1/12th of the estimated 2009 property taxes.  The agreement calls for the Company to list the property and retain a broker to market the property.   In the event the Company receives an offer for a price less than sufficient to satisfy the note payment, the Company must notify the Lender who will at its sole discretion accept or reject the offer.  In the event that the property is not sold by December 31, 2009, the Deed (in Lieu of Foreclosure) will be released, and provided that all Modified Interest Payments and real estate taxes for 2009 which are due on January 31, 2010 have been paid, the Corporate Guaranty will be returned, and the Borrower and Holder shall exchange mutual releases.

The Company accounts for all derivative financial instruments in accordance with SFAS No. 133. Prior to 2007, derivative financial instruments were recorded as liabilities in the consolidated balance sheet and measured at fair value. The Company accounted for the various embedded derivative features as being bundled together as a single, compound embedded derivative instrument that was bifurcated from the debt host contract, referred to as the “single compound embedded derivatives.”  The single compound embedded derivative features include within the convertible note the conversion feature, the early redemption option and the fixed price conversion adjustment. The initial value of the single compound embedded derivative liability was bifurcated from the debt host contract and recorded as a derivative liability, which resulted in a reduction of the initial carrying amount (as unamortized discount) of the convertible notes. The unamortized discount was amortized using the straight-line method over the life of the convertible note, or 7 years. The penalty warrants were valued based on the fair value of the Company’s common stock on the issuance date using a Black-Scholes valuation model and the unamortized discount was to be amortized as interest expense over the 7-year life of the notes using the straight-line method. In January 2007, the Company adopted FSP EITF 00-19-2.  Prior to adoption of FSP EITF 00-19-2, the uncertainty of a successful registration of the shares underlying the subordinated convertible debt required that the freestanding and embedded derivatives be characterized as derivative liabilities. FSP EITF 00-19-2 specifically addressed the accounting for a registration rights agreement and the requirement to classify derivative instruments subject to registration rights agreements as liabilities was withdrawn.  The Company re-evaluated its accounting for the subordinated debt transaction and determined that the liability for the penalty warrants be included in the allocation of the proceeds to the various components of the transaction according to paragraph 16 of APB Opinion No. 14, “Accounting   for Convertible Debt and Debt issued with Stock Purchase Warrants.”   The Company also determined the notes contained a beneficial conversion feature under Issues 98-5 and 00-27, and used the effective conversion price based on the proceeds allocated to the convertible instrument to compute the intrinsic value of the embedded conversion option. The Company recalculated the discount on the convertible debt at its intrinsic value and re-characterized the freestanding and embedded derivatives as equity. The previous valuation adjustments of the derivative liabilities were reversed and the amortization of the discounts was adjusted based upon the recalculation. Per FSP EITF 00-19-2, the Company was permitted to adjust the previous amounts as a cumulative accounting adjustment.
 
The net effect of the change increased the net carrying amount of the subordinated convertible debt and eliminated the derivative liabilities. There was also an increase of $4.8 million in total stockholders’ equity.  During the year ended December 31, 2006, the Company recognized approximately $8.5 million of loss on fair value of derivatives related to the subordinated convertible debt. Under the new FSP EITF 00-19-2 the derivatives were eliminated and hence there will no longer be gains and losses related to the current subordinated convertible debt.
 
2005, $10MM, 5%, Subordinated Convertible Debt
 
On December 19, 2005, the Company issued $10 million in aggregate principal amount of 5% subordinated convertible debt due December 1, 2012 to certain purchasers. The following are the key features of the subordinated convertible debt: interest accrues on the principal amount of the subordinated convertible debt at a rate of 5% per annum and the debt is payable semi-annually on May 1 and December 1 of each year, with interest payments beginning on June 1, 2006. The subordinated convertible debt is due on December 1, 2012 and is convertible, at the option of the holder, into shares of our common stock at a conversion price of $2.00 per share. The conversion price is subject to adjustment for stock splits, reverse stock splits, recapitalizations and similar corporate actions. An adjustment in the conversion price is also triggered upon the issuance of certain equity or equity-linked securities with a conversion price, exercise price, or share price less than $2.00 per share. The anti-dilution provisions state the conversion price cannot be lower than $1.00 per share.

The Company may redeem all or a portion of the subordinated convertible debt after December 1, 2008 at a redemption price that incorporates a premium that ranges from 3% to 10% during the period beginning December 1, 2008 and ending on the due date. In addition, the redemption price will include any accrued but unpaid interest on the subordinated convertible debt. Upon a change in control event, each holder of the subordinated convertible debt may require us to repurchase some or all of its subordinated convertible debt at a purchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the subordinated convertible debt plus accrued and unpaid interest. The due date may accelerate in the event the Company commences any case relating to bankruptcy or insolvency, or related events of default. The Company’s assets will be available to pay obligations on the subordinated convertible debt only after all senior indebtedness has been paid.
 
The subordinated convertible debt has a registration rights agreement whereby the Company filed a registration statement registering the resale of the underlying shares with the SEC.  The Company must maintain the registration statement in an effective status until the earlier to occur of (i) the date after which all the registrable shares registered thereunder shall have been sold and (ii) the second anniversary the date on which each warrant has been exercised in full and after which by the terms of such Warrant there are no additional warrant shares as to which the warrant may become exercisable; provided that in either case, such date shall be extended by the amount of time of any suspension period. Thereafter the Company shall be entitled to withdraw the registration statement, and upon such withdrawal and notice to the investors, the investors shall have no further right to offer or sell any of the registrable shares pursuant to the registration statement. The registration statement filed pursuant to the registration rights agreement was declared effective by the SEC on August 1, 2006.
 
              The Company also issued warrants to purchase an aggregate of 750,000 shares of common stock to the purchasers of the subordinated convertible debt, 562,500 shares which vested and the remaining shares will never vest.  The warrants were exercisable only upon the occurrence of certain events and then only in the amount specified as follows: (i) with respect to 25% of the warrant shares, on February 3, 2006 if the registration statement shall not have been filed with the SEC by such date (the Company filed a Form SB-2 registration statement on February 2, 2006); (ii) with respect to an additional 25% of the warrant shares, on April 19, 2006 if the registration statement shall not have been declared effective by the SEC by such date; (iii) with respect to an additional 25% of the warrant shares, on May 19, 2006 if the registration statement shall not have been declared effective by the SEC by such date; and (iv) with respect to the final 25% of the warrant shares, on June 18, 2006 if the registration statement shall not have been declared effective by the SEC by such date. Management has recorded the fair value of these warrants due to the uncertainty surrounding the timeline of getting the registration statement effected and the high probability that these warrants would be issued.  The shelf registration statement relating to these warrants was declared effective on August 1, 2006 and 562,500 of these warrants have vested and the remaining 187,500 warrants will never vest.
 
The penalty warrants were valued based on the fair value of the Company’s common stock on the issuance date of $1.60, using a Black-Scholes approach, risk free interest rate of 4.25%; dividend yield of 0%; weighted-average expected life of the warrants of 10 years; and a 60% volatility factor, resulting in an allocated value of approximately $613,000. The penalty warrants are recorded as part of the debt discount and an increase in additional paid in capital, and amortized over the 7-year life of the notes using the straight-line rate method.
 
The Company also incurred closing costs of $588,000 which included placement agent fees of $450,000 plus reimbursement of expenses to the placement agent of $125,000, plus 750,000 fully vested warrants to purchase Company’s common stock at $2.00 per share with a 10 year exercise period, valued at $829,000, for a total of $1.4 million, recorded as debt issuance costs, to be amortized over the 7-year life of the notes using the straight line method. These warrants were valued based on the fair value of the Company’s common stock of $1.60, using a Black-Scholes valuation model, at a $2.00 exercise price, risk free interest rate of 4.25%; dividend yield of 0%; weighted-average expected life of warrants of 10 years; and a 60% volatility factor.

2006, $6.5MM, 5%, Subordinated Convertible Debt
 
On September 29, 2006, the Company raised capital of $6.75 million in aggregate principal amount of 5% subordinated convertible debt due September 1, 2013, to certain purchasers. As of December 31, 2006, $6.75 million had been received in cash, the remaining $250,000 was a receivable from an owner of land that the Company had under option to purchase.  During the quarter ended June 2007, the Company did not exercise its option to purchase the land and therefore does not expect to receive the additional $250,000.   In addition, during the quarter ended June 30, 2007, one of our convertible debt holders who is also the seller of Bohl’s tract purchased common stock with a promissory note.  Under the terms of the promissory note, should the Company not exercise the option to purchase the Bohl’s tract the convertible debt would be used for repayment of the promissory note.  As the Company did not exercise the option to purchase Bohl’s tract the promissory note was repaid from the repayment of the convertible debt.  The following are the key features of the subordinated convertible debt: interest accrues on the principal amount of the subordinated convertible debt at a rate of 5% per annum, payable semi-annually on March 1 and September 1 of each year, with interest payments beginning on March 1, 2006. The subordinated convertible debt is due on September 1, 2013 and is convertible, at the option of the holder, into shares of common stock at a conversion price of $2.00 per share. The conversion price is subject to adjustment for stock splits, reverse stock splits, recapitalizations and similar corporate actions. An adjustment in the conversion price is also triggered upon the issuance of certain equity or equity-linked securities with a conversion price, exercise price, or share price less than $2.00 per share. The anti-dilution provisions state the conversion price cannot be lower than $1.00 per share. 
 
The Company may redeem all or a portion of the subordinated convertible debt after September 1, 2009 at a redemption price that incorporates a premium that ranges from 3% to 10% during the period beginning September 1, 2009 and ending on the due date. In addition, the redemption price will include any accrued but unpaid interest on the subordinated convertible debt. Upon a change in control event, each holder of the subordinated convertible debt may require us to repurchase some or all of its subordinated convertible debt at a purchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the subordinated convertible debt plus accrued and unpaid interest. The due date may accelerate in the event the Company commences any case relating to bankruptcy or insolvency, or related events of default. The Company’s assets will be available to pay obligations on the subordinated convertible debt only after all senior indebtedness has been paid.

The subordinated convertible debt has a registration rights agreement whereby the Company filed a registration statement registering the resale of the underlying shares with the SEC.  The Company must maintain the registration statement in an effective status until the earlier to occur of (i) the date after which all the registrable shares registered thereunder shall have been sold and (ii) the second anniversary of the later to occur of (a) the closing date, and (b) the date on which each warrant has been exercised in full and after which by the terms of such warrant there are no additional warrant shares as to which the warrant may become exercisable; provided that in either case, such date shall be extended by the amount of time of any suspension period. Thereafter the Company shall be entitled to withdraw the registration statement, and upon such withdrawal and notice to the investors, the investors shall have no further right to offer or sell any of the registrable shares pursuant to the registration statement.
 
The Company also issued warrants to purchase an aggregate of 506,250 shares of common stock to the purchasers of the subordinated convertible debt. The warrants are exercisable only upon the occurrence of certain events and then only in the amount specified as follows: (i) with respect to 25% of the warrant shares, on November 13, 2006 if the registration statement shall not have been filed with the SEC by such date (the Company filed a Form SB-2 registration statement on October 16, 2006); (ii) with respect to an additional 25% of the warrant shares, on January 27, 2007 if the registration statement shall not have been declared effective by the SEC by such date; (iii) with respect to an additional 25% of the warrant shares, on February 26, 2007 if the registration statement shall not have been declared effective by the SEC by such date; and (iv) with respect to the final 25% of the warrant shares, on March 28, 2007 if the registration statement shall not have been declared effective by the SEC by such date. The Company met certain of these milestones and has recorded 75% of the fair value of these warrants but the registration statement was not declared effective by the SEC prior to March 28, 2007 and therefore 75% of the warrant shares have vested and remain exercisable. The Company also incurred closing costs of $140,000, including placement agent fees of approximately $70,000 plus reimbursement of expenses to the placement agent of $25,000, for a total of $95,000 to the placement agent, recorded as debt issuance costs, to be amortized over the 7-year life of the notes using the straight-line rate method.
 
The issuance of the debt resulted in an embedded beneficial conversion feature valued at approximately $2.5 million, which will be recorded as part of the debt discount and an increase in additional paid in capital, and amortized over the 7-year life of the notes using the straight-line rate method.
 
The penalty warrants were based on the fair value of the Company’s common stock on the issuance date of $1.91, using a Black-Scholes approach, risk free interest rate of 4.64%; dividend yield of 0%; weighted-average expected life of the warrants of 10 years; and a 60% volatility factor. The allocated value of the penalty warrants totaled approximately $846,000 and are recorded as part of the debt discount and an increase in additional paid in capital, and amortized over the 7-year life of the notes using the straight-line rate method.

(11)         Common Stock Option / Stock Incentive Plan
 
In August 2005, the Company adopted the Wilson Family Communities, Inc. 2005 Stock Option/Stock Issuance Plan or the Stock Option Plan. The plan contains two separate equity programs: 1) the Option Grant Program for eligible persons at the discretion of the plan administrator, be granted options to purchase shares of common stock and 2) the Stock Issuance Program under which eligible persons may, at the discretion of the plan administrator, be issued shares of common stock directly, either through the immediate purchase of such shares or as a bonus for services rendered to the Company or any parent or subsidiary. The market value of the shares underlying option issuance prior to the merger of the Company and WFC was determined by the Board of Directors (the “Board”) as of the grant date. This plan was assumed by Green Builders, Inc. The fair value of the options granted under the plan was determined by the Board prior to the merger of the Company and WFC.
 
The Board is the plan administrator and has full authority (subject to provisions of the plan) and it may delegate a committee to carry out the functions of the administrator. Persons eligible to participate in the plan are employees, non-employee members of the Board or members of the board of directors of any parent or subsidiary.
 
The stock issued under the Stock Option Plan shall not exceed 2,500,000 shares. Unless terminated at an earlier date by action of the Board, the Stock Option Plan terminates upon the earlier of (1) the expiration of the ten year period measured from the date the Stock Option Plan is adopted by the Board or (2) the date on which all shares available for issuance under the Stock Option Plan shall have been issued as fully-vested shares.
 
The Company had 1,410,000 shares of common stock available for future grants under the Stock Option Plan at December 31, 2008.   Compensation expense related to the Company’s share-based awards for the three months ended December 31, 2008 and 2007 was approximately $42,000 and $640,000, respectively.   Before January 1, 2006, options granted to non-employees were recorded at fair value in accordance with SFAS No. 123 and EITF 96-18. These options are issued pursuant to the Stock Option Plan and are reflected in the disclosures below.
 
During the three months ended December 31, 2008, the Company issued options to purchase shares of common stock at an exercise prices at $0.23 per share. Using the Black-Scholes pricing model with the following weighted-average assumptions: interest rate of 3.76%; dividend yields of 0%; weighted average expected life of options of 5 years; and a 60% volatility factor, management estimated the fair market value of the grants to be $0.13 per share. Management estimated the volatility factor based on an average of comparable companies due to its limited trading history.

(12)          Subsequent Events
 
 On January 23, 2009, the Company received notice from the staff of the NYSE Alternext US LLC (the "Exchange") that, based on their review of publicly available information, the Company does not currently meet certain of the Exchange's continued listing standards as set forth in Part 10 of the Exchange's Company Guide (the “Company Guide”). In particular, the Exchange noted that the Company is not considered to be in compliance with Section 1003(a)(i) of the Company Guide because it reported stockholders' equity of less than $2,000,000 and losses from continuing operations and net losses in two of its three most recent fiscal years; it is not considered to be in compliance with Section 1003(a)(ii) of the Company Guide because it reported stockholders’ equity of less than $4,000,000 and losses from continuing operations and net losses in three of its four most recent fiscal years; it is not considered to be in compliance with Section 1003(a)(iii) of the Company Guide because it reported stockholders’ equity of less than $6,000,000 and losses from continuing operations and net losses in its five most recent fiscal years; and is not considered to be in compliance with Section 1003(a)(iv) of the Company Guide because it had sustained losses which are so substantial in relation to its overall operations or its existing financial resources, or its financial condition has become so impaired that it appeared questionable, in the opinion of the Exchange, as to whether the Company would be able to continue operations and/or meet its obligations as they mature.
 
In order to maintain listing of the Company's common stock on Exchange, the Company must submit a plan by February 23, 2009, advising the Exchange of the actions the Company has taken, or will take, that would bring it into compliance with Section 1003(a)(iv) of the Company Guide by July 23, 2009, and Sections 1003(a)(i), 1003(a)(ii) and 1003(a)(iii) of the Company Guide within a maximum of eighteen months (the “Plan”). The Company will evaluate whether or not it will submit a Plan. Assuming a Plan is submitted, if the Exchange accepts the Plan, then the Company may be able to continue its listing during the plan period, during which time the Company will be subject to periodic review to determine whether it is making progress consistent with the Plan. If the Company fails to submit a Plan acceptable to the Exchange, or even if accepted, if the Company is not in compliance with the continued listing standards at the end of the plan period or the Company does not make progress consistent with the Plan during such period, then the Exchange would be expected to initiate delisting proceedings.
 
The Company's common stock continues to trade on the Exchange. The Exchange has advised the Company that the Exchange is utilizing the financial status indicator fields in the Consolidated Tape Association's Consolidated Tape System and Consolidated Quote Systems Low Speed and High Speed Tapes to identify companies that are in noncompliance with the Exchange's continued listing standards. Accordingly, the Company will become subject to the trading symbol extension ".BC" to denote such noncompliance.  The Company intends to explore all of its options and at this time does not know whether it will be able to take the steps to regain compliance with the Exchange’s continued listing standards within the time frame noted above.

M ANAG EMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS  
 
This discussion contains forward-looking statements reflecting our current expectations that involve risks and uncertainties. When used herein, the words “believes,” “plans,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “intends,” “continue,” “may,” “will,” “could,” “should,” “future,” “potential,” “estimate,” or the negative of such terms and similar expressions as they relate to us or our management are intended to identify forward-looking statements.  Actual results and the timing of events may differ materially from those contained in these forward-looking statements due to a number of factors, including those discussed herein.  These risks and uncertainties are beyond our control and, in many cases, we cannot predict the risks and uncertainties that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those indicated by the forward-looking statements.  Historical results and percentage relationships among any amounts in our consolidated financial statements are not necessarily indicative of trends in operating results for any future periods.
 
The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with “Selected Consolidated Financial Information” and our financial statements and accompanying notes included elsewhere in this document.
 
Overview
 
We are a real estate development and homebuilding company.  We commenced our homebuilding operations in June 2007 with the purchase of Green Builders, Inc.  We build energy efficient homes in Austin, Texas and we make it a priority to fully utilize sustainable building practices and to use earth-friendly products and materials.
 
From late 2007 through December 31, 2008 our business has been significantly impacted by the continued deterioration of the real estate and homebuilding industry.  Although central Texas has been less affected than other areas, national real estate trends and global economic conditions have had a significant impact on home buyers and lenders and we believe that sales of new homes in our market may continue to decline in fiscal 2009.  We believe this slowdown is attributable to a decline in consumer confidence, the inability of some buyers to sell their current homes and the direct and indirect impact of the well-publicized turmoil in the mortgage and credit markets.
 
In June 2007 we purchased Green Builders, Inc. and commenced our homebuilding operations under that name.  Our strategy is to build homes that are environmentally responsible, resource efficient and consistent with local style.  Substantially all of our construction work is performed by subcontractors who are retained for specific subdivisions pursuant to contracts entered in.  We intend to build homes on some of the lots we currently have completed and sell those as finished homes as well as continue to sell lots to other builders.  We are currently exploring options with other developers to enter into agreements that would give us the option to purchase additional finished lots in the future. In November 2008 we updated our homebuilding services to include “build on your lot”.  “Build on your lot” allows customers to build our existing plans on lots that they own.
 
Prior to our acquisition of Green Builders, we were solely focused on the acquisition of undeveloped land that we believed, based on our research of population growth patterns and infrastructure development, was strategically located.  We have funded these acquisitions primarily with bank debt and cash we raised from financing activities.  We currently have completed 220 lots in Georgetown Village, 105 lots in Elm Grove and 58 lots in Rutherford West.  This portion of our business focus has required the majority of our financial resources.  Due to the continued deterioration of the homebuilding industry and based on our current liquidity, we are currently in negotiations to dispose of some of our land positions including but not limited to deed in lieu of foreclosure of these assets.
 
21

 
In tandem with our land acquisition efforts and based upon our strategic market analysis, we also prepare land for homebuilding.  A focus of our business had been the sale of developed lots to homebuilders, including national homebuilders.  Due to deteriorating conditions in the homebuilding industry both nationally and to a lesser extent locally, during the second quarter of 2007 and continuing through December 2008, demand for finished lots by national homebuilders is, and we expect will continue to be, significantly reduced.  As a result, orders placed for some of our finished lots were cancelled.  We elected to retain some of our lots for use in our homebuilding business.  We believe that retaining some of our lots for use in homebuilding activities will allow us to generate homebuilding revenue to replace some of the revenue from the loss of sales of these finished lots.  We will continue to pursue lot sales contracts with both national and regional builders.
 
In November 2008 we expanded our services to include “green” remodeling of existing homes.  We have taken a comprehensive approach to engaging in the green remodeling business and offer customers a “one-stop” process for updating their existing home with a focus on energy efficiency.  Our green remodeling program currently caters to existing homeowners in the Austin, Texas area who want to reduce home energy demands and utility bills, lessen home maintenance costs and increase the comfort of their home.  Initially we anticipate that substantially all of our construction work will be performed by subcontractors.  By subcontracting out the work, there is limited additional capital required to enter this business line.  We also feel that entering into remodeling will help us supplement revenue during this slowdown in the real estate industry. To date we have received some energy audit requests and are reviewing the results and discussing the next steps with our customers.  We have received immaterial amounts of revenue from remodeling operations. We expect to see additional revenues from these operations during fiscal 2009.

Homebuilding and Related Services Revenues
 
Background – Homebuilding and related services revenue consists of revenue from home sales.  Prior to fiscal 2008, all home sales were generated by our homebuilder customers utilizing our homebuilder services.  In June 2007 we acquired Green Builders, Inc and commenced our homebuilding activities.  We sell homes in the Austin, Texas area for prices ranging from $180,000 to $600,000.  For the three months ended December 31, 2008 we had twelve home sales and seven cancellations for a total of five net sales.  We had seventeen home closings.  Revenue is not recognized until the home closing is finalized.  At December 31, 2008, we had eight completed speculative units, two speculative units under construction, seven completed models, and 19 units in backlog.  Backlog is defined as homes under contract but not yet delivered to our home buyers.  We believe that the turmoil in the mortgage market combined with national publicity of significantly deteriorating general and economic conditions has caused a lack of urgency for buyers.  We expect that they will continue to be slow throughout fiscal 2009.  In accordance with these anticipated market conditions, our strategy is to build a limited number of speculative units per community and build the majority of our homes after a contract is entered into with a homebuyer.

Revenues - During the three months ended December 31, 2008, home sales accounted for approximately 93% of revenues.  For the three months ended December 31, 2008 there were seventeen home closings at an average sales price of $249,000.  During the three months ended December 31, 2007, we had no revenue from homebuilding or homebuilding services.
 
Gross Profit - Gross profit percentage before impairments was 11% for the three months ended December 31, 2008.  During fiscal year 2008 we reviewed our homebuilding inventory for impairments.  We determined that we had $11,900 in impairments on speculative units.  The impairment analysis for each of our communities generally assumed that sales prices in future periods would be equal to current sold unit’s prices.
 
Land and Land Development
 
Background – Land sales revenue consists of revenues from the sale of undeveloped land and developed lots.  Developing finished lots from raw land takes approximately one to three years. In response to the slowdown in the national housing market and the reduction in demand for finished lots, we changed our strategy and have elected to use some of  our developed lots for our own homebuilding operations.  We may still sell our lots to national, regional and local homebuilders that may purchase anywhere from five to one hundred or more lots at a time. The delivery of these lots would likely be scheduled over periods of several months or years.
 
Revenues – Revenue from the sale of land decreased by 69% during the three months ended December 31, 2008, compared to the three months ended December 31, 2007.  During the three months ended December 31, 2008 we closed six finished lots as compared to eleven finished lots for the three months ended December 31, 2007.  In addition for the three months ended December 31, 2007 we had $349,000 in land revenues for the sale of five acres of Highway 183.
 
Gross Profit - Gross profit as a percentage of sales decreased from 36% to 21% for the three months ended December 31, 2008.  The decrease in margin percentage is due to the higher margin earned on the Highway 183 sale.

General and administrative expenses are composed primarily of salaries of general and administrative personnel and related employee benefits and taxes, accounting and legal and general office expenses and insurance.  During the three months ended December 31, 2008 and December 31, 2007, salaries, benefits, taxes and related employee expenses totaled approximately $284,000 and $503,000, respectively, and represented approximately 35% and 30%, respectively, of total general and administrative expenses for the periods.  The decrease for the year is due to a decrease in headcount.
 
23

 
Stock compensation expense was approximately $42,000 and $640,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively.  The decrease in stock compensation expense was due to acceleration of the stock option expense for our former CFO expensed for the three months ended December 31, 2007.  In addition, the decrease is also due to a decrease in headcount from 25 employees at December 31, 2007 to 16 employees at December 31, 2008.
 
Legal, accounting, audit, consulting and investor relation expense totaled $123,000 and $222,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively.  General overhead, including office expenses, insurance, and travel totaled $141,000 and $254,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively.  The decrease in these general and administrative costs resulted from our initiative to control costs.
 
Restructuring expenses relates to expenses incurred to restructure our debt agreement with Graham Mortgage Capital and our syndicate of banks.  In the prior year we incurred no expenses for restructuring.
 
Amortization of subordinated convertible debt issuance costs was approximately $60,000 and $62,000 for the three months December 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively.
 
Sales and Marketing Expenses
 
Sales and marketing expenses include selling costs, commissions, salaries and related taxes and benefits, finished inventory maintenance and property tax expense, marketing activities including websites, brochures, catalogs, signage, and billboards, and market research, all of which benefit our corporate presence and are not included as homebuilding cost of sales.  The increase was due to an increase in commissions and closing costs due to an increase in homebuilding revenue for the three months ended December 31, 2008.

Financial Condition and Capital Resources
 
Liquidity
 
On December 31, 2008 we had $2.2 million in cash and cash equivalents.  We will need to raise additional cash to continue our business, whether through the sale of debt, equity, or combination thereof or through the sale of certain of our assets. We completed a public offering of our common stock in May 2007, resulting in net proceeds to us of approximately $14 million.

On June 29, 2007, Wilson Family Communities entered into a $55 million revolving credit facility (the “Credit Facility”) with a syndicate of banks led by RBC Bank (formerly RBC Centura Bank), as administrative agent.  IBC Bank and Franklin Bank, S.S.B. (“Franklin Bank”) are the other two banks that make up the syndicate of banks.  The Credit Facility was reduced to $30 million in June 2008.  The initial maturity date for the Credit Facility was June 29, 2008.  We entered into an agreement to extend the maturity date to October 1, 2008.  On October 1, 2008, the Credit Facility expired pursuant to its terms.  Although WFC is currently out of compliance with certain covenants set forth in the Borrowing Base Agreement under the Loan Agreement, the syndicate of banks has continued to make amounts available to WFC pursuant to the Loan Agreement for loans made prior to the expiration of the facility.  We were notified on November 7, 2008 that Franklin Bank was closed by the Texas Department of Savings and Mortgage Lending and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (the “FDIC”) was named Receiver.
 
Green Builders has guaranteed the obligations of Wilson Family Communities under the Credit Facility.  The amount available at any time under the Credit Facility for revolving credit loans or the issuance of letters of credit is determined by a borrowing base. The borrowing base is calculated as the sum of the values for homes and lots in the subdivision to be developed as agreed by us and the agent.  Our obligations under the Credit Facility are secured by the assets of each subdivision that was to be developed with the proceeds of loans available under the Credit Facility.
 
Outstanding borrowings under the Credit Facility bear interest at the prime rate plus 0.25%, with a floor of 5.5%.  We are charged a letter of credit fee equal to 1.10% of each letter of credit issued under the Credit Facility. We may elect to prepay the Credit Facility at any time without premium or penalty.  Quarterly principal reductions are required during the final 12 months of the term.
 
The Credit Facility contains customary covenants limiting our ability to take certain actions, including covenants that:
 
·  
affect how we can develop our properties;
·  
limit the ability to pay dividends and other restricted payments;
·  
limit the ability to place liens on its property;
·  
limit the ability to engage in mergers and acquisitions and dispositions of assets;
·  
require us to maintain a minimum net worth of $20,000,000, including subordinated debt (although the minimum net worth may be $17,000,000 for one quarter);
·  
prohibit the ratio of debt (excluding convertible debt) to equity (including convertible debt) from exceeding  2.0 to 1.0;
·  
require us to maintain working capital of at least $15,000,000; and
·  
limit the number of completed speculative homes to 12% of the total borrowing base available for homes.
 
An event of default will occur under the Credit Facility if certain events occur, including the following:
 
·  
a failure to pay principal or interest on any loan under the Credit Facility;
·  
the inaccuracy of a representation or warranty when made;
·  
the failure to observe or perform covenants or agreements;
·  
an event of default beyond any applicable grace period with respect to any other indebtedness;
·  
the commencement of proceedings under federal, state or foreign bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or similar laws;
·  
any loan document, or any lien created thereunder, ceases to be in full force and effect;
·  
the entry of a judgment greater than $1,000,000 that remains undischarged; or
·  
a change of control.
 
25

 
If an event of default occurs under the Credit Facility, then the lenders may: (1) terminate their commitments under the Credit Facility; (2) declare any outstanding indebtedness under the Credit Facility to be immediately due and payable; and (3) foreclose on the collateral securing the obligations.  We are currently out of compliance with the terms of the Borrowing Base Agreement under the Credit Facility.  We are not in compliance with the tangible net worth, the ratio of debt to equity, working capital, number of completed speculative homes and number of land and developed lot loans covenants.  If we are unable to obtain a waiver for the noncompliance our obligation to repay indebtedness outstanding under the facility, our term loans, and our outstanding note indentures could be accelerated in full. We can give no assurance that in such an event, we would have, or be able to obtain, sufficient funds to pay all debt required to repay.
 
In December 2005 and September 2006, we entered into Securities Purchase Agreements with certain investors for the sale of Convertible Promissory Notes.  Pursuant to the cross-default provisions of the Securities Purchase Agreements, a default under our Credit Facility triggers defaults under the Securities Purchase Agreements.  In the event that our non-compliance with the Credit Facility continues, the holders of a majority of the Notes issued under the Securities Purchase Agreement could elect to demand the acceleration of all amounts owed under these Notes.  We do not have the cash available to repay these amounts or the amounts owed under the Credit Facility.  We have discussed our non-compliance with certain investors under the Securities Purchase Agreements but these Note holders have not initiated the process under the Securities Purchase Agreements that would allow them to accelerate our obligations under the Securities Purchase Agreements or take any other remedial action.  We intend to negotiate with all investors under our Securities Purchase Agreements to reach a mutually satisfactory resolution and we intend to cooperate with the Credit Facility lenders to regain compliance with the terms of the Credit Facility.
 
Our growth will require substantial amounts of cash for earnest money deposits, development costs, interest payments and homebuilding costs. Until we begin to sell an adequate number of lots and homes to cover our monthly operating expenses, our sales, marketing, general and administrative costs will deplete cash.  Due to current market conditions and slow home and land sales, we will need to obtain additional capital.  We are currently in negotiations to dispose of some of our current land positions, but there is no assurance that we will be successful in selling these land positions at an acceptable price or at all.  In addition we are seeking additional capital in the form of debt or equity to support future growth and current operations.  We do not have sufficient cash to continue operations for the next twelve months.  We will need to raise additional cash to continue our business, whether through the sale of debt, equity, or combination thereof or through the sale of certain of our assets.
 
Capital Resources
 
We have raised approximately $16.5 million of subordinated convertible debt, and approximately $14 million in a public offering of our common stock completed in May 2007.  We entered into a $55 million revolving Credit Facility that was reduced to $30 million in June 2008. The initial maturity date for the Credit Facility was June 29, 2008.  We entered into an agreement to extend the maturity date to October 1, 2008.  On October 1, 2008, the Credit Facility expired pursuant to its terms.  Although WFC is currently out of compliance with certain covenants set forth in the Borrowing Base Agreement under the Loan Agreement, RBC and IBC have continued to make amounts available to WFC pursuant to the Loan Agreement for loans made prior to the expiration of the facility.  We were notified on November 7, 2008 that Franklin Bank was closed by the Texas Department of Savings and Mortgage Lending and the FDIC was named Receiver.  Land and homes under construction comprise the majority of our assets. These assets have suffered devaluation due to the downturn in the housing and real estate market for central Texas.  We are considering selling tracts of commercial and residential land in order to increase sales revenues and increase cash.  We are also in negotiation to deed in lieu of foreclosure some of our land positions.  We expect that we will incur losses in 2009.  Due to current market conditions and slow home and land sales, we anticipate that we will need additional capital to support operations for the next twelve months.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
 
As of December 31, 2008, we had no off-balance sheet arrangements.
 
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
 
The SEC defines “critical accounting policies” as those that require application of management’s most difficult, subjective or complex judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain and may change in subsequent periods.  Our accounting policies are more fully described in the notes to our consolidated financial statements.
 
As discussed in the notes to the consolidated financial statements, the preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions about future events that affect the amounts reported in our consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Future events and their effects cannot be determined with absolute certainty. Therefore, the determination of estimates requires the exercise of judgment. Actual results could differ from those estimates, and such differences may be material to our consolidated financial statements. Listed below are those policies and estimates that we believe are critical and require the use of significant judgment in their application.
 
Inventory
 
Inventory is stated at cost unless it is determined to be impaired, in which case the impaired inventory would be written down to the fair market value.  Inventory costs include land, land development costs, deposits on land purchase contracts, model home construction costs, homebuilding costs, interest and real estate taxes incurred during development and construction phases.
 
Revenue Recognition
 
Revenues from property sales are recognized in accordance with SFAS No. 66, “Accounting for Sales of Real Estate.” Revenues from land development services to builders are recognized when the properties associated with the services are sold, when the risks and rewards of ownership are transferred to the buyer and when the consideration has been received, or the title company has processed payment. For projects that are consolidated, homebuilding revenues and services will be categorized as homebuilding revenues and revenues from property sales or options will be categorized as land sales.
 
Use of Estimates
 
We have estimated and accrued liabilities for real estate property taxes on our purchased land in anticipation of development, and other liabilities including the beneficial conversion liability and the fair value of warrants and options.  To the extent that the estimates are different than the actual amounts, it could have a material effect on the financial statements.
 
Municipal Utility and Water District Receivables
 
We currently have planned the community of Villages of New Sweden within the boundaries of New Sweden Municipal Utility District No. 1 and the community of Rutherford West in Greenhawe Water Control and Improvement District No. 2.  We incur development costs for the initial creation and operating costs of these Districts and continuing costs for the water, sewer and drainage infrastructure for these Districts.  The Districts will issue bonds to repay us, once the property has sufficient assessed value for the District taxes to repay the bonds. As the project is completed and homes are sold within the District, the assessed value increases.  It can take several years before the assessed value is sufficient to provide sufficient tax revenue for us to recapture its costs. We estimate that we will recover approximately 50 to 100% of eligible initial creation and operating costs spent through December 31, 2008 for costs spent for Rutherford West Phase 1.  We have completed Phase 1 for the Rutherford West project and have approximately $1.1million of water district reimbursements included in inventory that we anticipate will be collected from bond issuances made by the District.  When the reimbursements are received we will record them as reductions of the related asset’s balance. Usually, a District issues its first bond issue only after completion of construction of approximately 200 houses.  The Districts will pay for property set aside for the preservation of endangered species, greenbelts and similar uses.  To the extent that the estimates are dramatically different from the actual facts, it could have a material effect on our financial statements.

Convertible Debt
 
The subordinated convertible debt and the related warrants have been accounted for in accordance with Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) No. 98-5, “Accounting for Convertible Securities with Beneficial Conversion Features or Contingently Adjustable Conversion Ratios”, EITF No. 00-19, “Accounting for Derivative Financial Instruments Indexed to, and Potentially Settled in, a Company’s Own Stock,” EITF 00-27, “Application of issue 98-5 to Certain Convertible Instruments”, EITF 05-02 “Meaning of ‘Conventional Convertible Debt Instrument’ in Issue No. 00-19”, and EITF 05-04 “The Effect of a Liquidated Damages Clause on a Freestanding Financial Instrument Subject to Issue No. 00-19” updated with FSP EITF 00-19-2”, Accounting for Registration Payment Arrangements.
 
Debt Restructuring
 
The debt restructuring agreement has been accounted for in accordance with accordance with SFAS 15, “Accounting by Debtors and Creditors for Troubled Debt Restructuring”.  The related warrants issued have been treated in accordance with “APB 14, “Accounting for Convertible Debt and Debt Issued with Stock Purchase Warrants”.
 
 
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
 
In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements” (“SFAS 157”), which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS 157 applies under other accounting pronouncements that require or permit fair value measurements and does not require any new fair value measurements. The provisions of SFAS 157 are effective beginning with our fiscal year 2009. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on our financial statements.
 
In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities — including an amendment of FASB Statement No. 115.” The statement permits entities to choose to measure certain financial assets and liabilities at fair value. Unrealized gains and losses on items for which the fair value option has been elected are reported in earnings.  SFAS 159 is effective for our fiscal year 2009.   The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on our financial statements.
 
In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141(R), “Business Combinations” (FAS 141(R)), which establishes accounting principles and disclosure requirements for all transactions in which a company obtains control over another business.  We are evaluating the impact of the adoption of SFAS No. 141; however, it is not expected to have a material impact on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
 
In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, “Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements” (FAS 160), which prescribes the accounting by a parent company for minority interests held by other parties in a subsidiary of the parent company.  We are evaluating the impact of the adoption of SFAS No. 160; however, it is not expected to have a material impact on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

ITEM 3.    
QU ANTI TATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
 
We are subject to interest rate risk on our long-term debt. We monitor our exposure to changes in interest rates and utilize both fixed and variable rate debt. For fixed rate debt, changes in interest rates generally affect the value of the debt instrument, but not our earnings or cash flows. Conversely, for variable rate debt, changes in interest rates generally do not impact the fair value of the debt instrument, but may affect our future earnings and cash flows.  We currently had approximately $16 million in variable interest debt at December 31, 2008.
 
ITEM 4T.
C ONTR OLS AND PROCEDURES
 
Evaluation of Effectiveness of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
 
Our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Principal Financial Officer, have evaluated our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended), as of the period ended December 31, 2008, the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.  Based upon that evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of December 31, 2008 due to the significant deficiency described in our annual report filed December 23, 2008.
 
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
 
There have been no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting during our most recent fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.

PART II - OTHE R INFORMATION  
 
ITEM 1.
L EGA L PROCEEDINGS
 
 
We are involved in lawsuits and other contingencies in the ordinary course of business. While the outcome of such contingencies cannot be predicted with certainty, we believe that the liabilities arising from these matters will not have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows. However, to the extent the liability arising from the ultimate resolution of any matter exceeds our estimates reflected in the recorded reserves relating to such matter, we could incur additional charges that could be significant.
 
 
ITEM 1A.
R ISK FACTORS  
 
           In addition to the risk factors previously identified in our annual report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended September 30, 2008, we add the following risk factor:
 
We have received notice from the NYSE Alternext notifying us of our failure to satisfy several continued listing rules or standards, which could result us being subject to delisting procedures.
 
Our common stock is listed on the NYSE Alternext (formerly the American Stock Exchange) under the symbol "GBH." All companies listed on NYSE Alternext are required to comply with certain continued listing standards, including maintaining stockholders' equity at required levels, share price requirements and other rules and regulations of the NYSE Alternext. On January 23, 2009, we received notice from the staff of the NYSE Alternext indicating that we were not in compliance with certain continued listing standards under Section 1003(a) of the NYSE Alternext's Company Guide (the "Company Guide") relating to the level of our stockholders' equity and our losses from continuing operations and net losses.   The NYSE Alternext may seek to suspend or delist our common stock if we are unable to gain compliance with the Company Guide. In addition, the NYSE Alternext has advised us that we should consider effecting a reverse stock split to address our low stock price. Failure to effect a reverse split within a reasonable amount of time could result in suspension or delisting of our common stock.  If our common stock were suspended or delisited it could materially adversely affect its market value and liquidity.
