PART 1

ITEM 1: BUSINESS

CORPORATE INFORMATION

Z3 Enterprises, Inc. (the “Company” or ”Z3E”) was incorporated in the State of Nevada on July 22, 2002 under the name “Bibb Corporation”. On September 3, 2010, the Company amended its Articles of Incorporation to change its name to Z3 Enterprises, Inc. Our mailing address is 27420 Breakers Drive, Wesley Chapel, FL 33544. Our telephone number is (813) 929-1877 and our e-mail address is info@hpevinc.com.

THE COMPANY

The Company began its development stage in July 2002. Since inception we focused primarily on research and development activities, organizing our company, finding and negotiating with vendors, raising capital and laying the groundwork to take the company public.

The original planned principal operations were to produce fully integrated multi-media products targeting the marginally literate. That changed when we signed a joint venture with Phoenix Productions and Entertainment Group (PPEG) and thereby commenced substantial operations and the focus shifted to educational, entertainment and reality show programming as well as feature films and special event marketing.

As a result of the joint venture, the Company changed its name from Bibb Corporation to Z3 Enterprises, Inc. A few months later, PPEG bought out the majority shareholder of the Company and there was a change of control of the Company.

From September 2010 through March 2011, the Company pursued business opportunities with Usee, Inc. and Usee CA, Inc; and Trinity Springs, Ltd., respectively, but the agreements were never consummated and the projects were terminated.

In March 2011, we were presented with an opportunity that we believed should generate revenues far earlier than the typical timeline for income related to films and other entertainment projects.

On March 29, 2011, Z3 Enterprises entered into a Share Exchange Agreement to acquire 100 shares, constituting all of the issued and outstanding shares of HPEV Inc. (“HPEV”) in consideration for the issuance of 22,000,000 shares of Z3E common stock. Upon closing of the Share Exchange on April 15, 2011, HPEV became a wholly owned subsidiary of Z3.

The terms of the Share Exchange Agreement require the current board of directors of Z3E (the “Board”) to designate Quentin Ponder and Tim Hassett as directors of Z3E, as well as two other directors to be named later by HPEV. The Board has not yet appointed Mr. Ponder and Mr. Hassett to the Board due to current Bylaw restrictions. The Company plans to amend the bylaws and make these appointments as soon as practicable.

Control of Z3E changed hands on April 15, 2011 with the issuance of 21,880,000 shares of Z3E common stock to the original shareholders of HPEV pursuant to the terms of the as amended Share Exchange Agreement. An additional 120,000 shares were issued during the fourth quarter of 2011 which completed the issuance of 22,000,000 shares of Z3E common stock to HPEV, Inc. under the terms of the as amended Share Exchange Agreement.

Z3E changed its business direction and now plans to commercialize the patents held by HPEV, Inc. On May 5, 2011, patents and patents-pending were assigned to HPEV. The assignment consisted of one patent and six patents-pending which cover a variety of composite heat pipes and heat pipe applications as well as a patent pending related to electric load assist and parallel vehicle platform that enables vehicles to alternate between two sources of power. Two additional patents-pending are in the process of being assigned to HPEV.

HPEV began its development stage on March 24, 2011. Since inception, the Company has focused primarily on research and development activities, organizing the Company, finding and negotiating with vendors, and raising capital.

The planned principal operations are to commercialize the technology from patents developed by two of the Company’s current shareholders. HPEV’s technologies in combination with existing technologies should enable the Company to convert any existing internal combustion vehicle on the road into a plug-in hybrid electric vehicle which should result in reduced energy and maintenance costs as well as emissions.

We have an accumulated deficit of $5,124,215 since inception. Our liabilities and equity now total $1,034,514. We have generated no revenue to date; and we have been issued a “substantial doubt” going concern opinion from our auditors.

Beginning with plug-in hybrid electric vehicle conversions, we intend to commercialize the HPEV technologies in a variety of applications and markets by licensing the conversion systems to fleet owners, vehicle dealers and service centers. The company also plans to license the heat pipe technologies to engine and vehicle component manufacturers.

BUSINESS DEVELOPMENTS

Prior to the reverse merger with HPEV, Inc, Z3 Enterprise, Inc engaged in the following transactions:

On September 3, 2010, the Company amended its Articles of Incorporation to change its name to Z3 Enterprises, Inc. The Company also increased the number of authorized shares from 25 million to 105 million. The 105 million shares were divided into 95 million shares of common stock and 10 million shares of blank check preferred.

Another amendment put a forward 6-to-1 stock split into effect upon the date the split was approved by FINRA. After the split, one share of Z3E’s old common stock was converted into six shares of Z3E’s new common stock which resulted in the issuance of 25,035,500 shares of new common stock.

On September 3, 2010, the Company and Phoenix Productions and Entertainment Group, LLC (“PPEG”), a Nevada limited liability company, entered into a Joint Venture Agreement to produce and distribute television, feature films, and other entertainment and educational projects.

With the signing of the Joint Venture Agreement, the Company’s business model evolved from multi-media publishing to reflect the terms of the Joint Venture Agreement.

Pursuant to the Joint Venture Agreement, PPEG agreed to provide Z3E with a minimum of $10 million in loans, lines of credit, or investments (up to $100 million) to fund the production, distribution and implementation of entertainment and educational projects. The funds were designated to be for the exclusive use and benefit of Z3E.

In return for the loan or line of credit, PPEG would receive the full amount of its loans or investment plus an interest payment of five percent upon receipt of revenues by Z3E from each project. As of December 31, 2011, no projects had ever reached the production phase and, consequently, none were ever completed.

On September 7, 2010, the Company and PPEG entered into a Loan Agreement pursuant to which PPEG would lend the Company up to $1,000,000 (the “PPEG Loan Agreement”). Loans under the PPEG Loan Agreement are interest-free and are not convertible into the common stock of the Company as provided in the PPEG Joint Venture Agreement. All loans to date from PPEG to the Company have been made pursuant to the PPEG Loan Agreement. Loans from PPEG to the Company totaled $862,094 for the year ended December 31, 2011. The monies were used for all aspects of the operations of Z3 Enterprises as well as acquisitions such as Usee. Inc., Harvest Hartwell and the rights to the print and musical works of the Aleem Brothers as well as entry into the negotiations for Trinity Springs and the acquisition of HPEV, Inc.

On September 24, 2010, the Company acquired 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of Usee, Inc. in exchange for 10,500,000 of its common shares. The transaction was later cancelled after due diligence discovered some undesirable facts. The Company is working to recover the stock certificates that were issued. As of March 7, 2012, the Company has not received back 1,141,590 shares of common stock and has placed a stop transfer order on all outstanding shares.

The prospects for recovering the shares are unknown. We anticipate taking the next step when funds are available to pursue such matters. At the moment, our focus is on creating our initial prototype, development of our thermal technologies and generating revenues. We don’t foresee liabilities arising from the termination of this contract. The majority of the shares have been returned from Usee. Two of the entities with outstanding shares functioned as agents for the contract that was terminated.

On September 30, 2010, Z3E acquired 100% of the membership interests in Harvest Hartwell, CCP, LLC (HHCCP), a Michigan limited liability company. The centerpiece of the acquisition was just over 48 acres of undeveloped property on Lake Hartwell in Anderson County, South Carolina owned by HHCCP. The Company had planned to use the property as a location for a reality show.

The purchase price was $8,000,000 and was paid through the issuance of 1,920,000 shares of Z3E common stock. After the acquisition, HHCCP became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Z3E.

As part of the agreement, Richard S. Glisky, the previous holder of the membership interests, had the right to re-acquire all of the membership interests until September 30, 2011 at a price equal to or greater than $8,000,000. On September 2, 2011, both parties agreed to rescind the agreement. The Company assigned 100% of its membership interests back to Mr. Glisky and satisfied a $22,500 lien it had placed upon the real property owned by HHCCP. Mr. Glisky agreed to assign the 1,920,000 shares of common stock back to the Company and the Company has recorded an $8,000,000 stock receivable as of December 31, 2010. On February 13, 2012, 1,920,000 restricted common shares were assigned back to the Company, canceled by the transfer agent and assigned a value of zero.

On December 24, 2010, the Company executed a Memorandum of Understanding with Taharqa Aleem and Tunde Ra Aleem (the Aleem Brothers) whereby Z3 was to acquire various intangible rights to the print and musical works of the Aleem Brothers who formed a band called The Ghetto Fighters. The memorandum provided for the transfer of all rights, title and interest to the fullest extent possible under law to unreleased recordings of The Ghetto Fighters featuring Jimi Hendrix, among other properties.

The memorandum also provided for cash payments of $500,000 from the Company to the Aleem brothers, the issuance of $500,000 worth of the Company’s common stock and royalty payments ranging from 20% to 50% from projects based on the print and musical works.

The Aleem Brothers requested and received $75,000 in good faith money.

The Company’s due diligence raised questions about some of the claims being made. On March 11, 2011, the Company proposed to nullify the terms of the agreement and replace it with one that more accurately reflected the scope and value of the works being acquired.

A new contract was presented by the Company to the Aleem Brothers and there was no response. Consequently, the Company terminated the contract and requested return of the funds advanced. To date, the funds have not been returned and subsequent messages and e-mails have not generated a response.

As a result, the agreement remained on the company’s books. Since then, the Company’s direction has changed. It is no longer involved in entertainment projects. Management has determined repayment of the $75,000 by the Aleem Brothers was unlikely and decided to write off the $75,000 as of December 31, 2011.

On December 24, 2010, Phoenix Productions and Entertainment Group, Inc. (“PPEG”) entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement with Judson Bibb whereby PPEG agreed to acquire 13,639,200 shares of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares of common stock for a purchase price of $100,000.

The shares represented approximately 68% of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares of common stock. As a result, the Company changed control and Judson Bibb resigned as an officer of the company. Ross Giles was appointed as the Company’s new chief executive officer and president and Ron Littrell was appointed as the Company’s chief operating officer. Judson Bibb agreed to remain as a director.

On January 26, 2011, we entered into an agreement to acquire Trinity Springs, Ltd (Trinity), also known as Crystal Paradise Holdings, Inc., an Idaho Corporation. Z3 Enterprises agreed to buy Trinity for $18,600,000. The agreement and closing of the transaction were subject to the receipt of cash by the disbursing agent and settlement of outstanding liens by Trinity as well as a recommendation to sell by Trinity’s board or directors and approval by Trinity’s shareholders as required under the Idaho Business Corporation Act.

On March 24, 2011, the Company terminated its Asset Purchase and Sale Agreement with Trinity. Grounds for the termination were based upon the revelation of litigation regarding Trinity’s assets filed at the time of the signing of the agreement and the failure to reach modified payment terms and conditions based upon the existence of the litigation.

To enter the negotiations, Trinity required a $100,000 non-refundable deposit. Subsequent to the termination of our original agreement, Trinity has been unable to find a buyer. As a result, we continued to have discussions with management regarding the purchase of the water company.

Additional attempts to put together an acceptable corporate structure were made during the second and third quarters. As late as October 15, 2011, the company attempted to submit another offer for review by the Trinity board. In response, we received information surrounding the potential transaction that caused us to withdraw the offer. Since then, negotiations have ceased. As a result, the $100,000 deposit was forfeited during the fourth quarter.

On March 29, 2011, the Company entered into a share exchange agreement (later amended on June 14, 2011) to acquire HPEV, Inc. (“HPEV”), a Delaware corporation. The Company acquired one hundred percent of the shares of common and preferred stock in HPEV in exchange for the issuance of 22,000,000 common shares of stock of Z3E.

According to the terms of the share exchange agreement and pending a change in the Company by-laws which has not occurred as of January 31, 2012, Z3E shall designate Quentin Ponder and Tim Hassett as directors of Z3E, as well as two independent representatives to be named later by HPEV as additional directors.

The current management team of HPEV remained in place.

With the acquisition of HPEV, the Company’s business direction changed. HPEV Inc. has been assigned the rights to one patent, one notice of allowance of a patent and 11 patents pending which cover a variety of composite heat pipe architectures and a parallel vehicle platform. Our intent is now to commercialize the patents by implementing and licensing a plug-in hybrid electric vehicle conversion system based on the parallel vehicle platform. We also intend to incorporate our heat pipe technology in automotive components such as brakes.

For accounting purposes, the acquisition of HPEV, Inc by Z3 Enterprises, Inc. has been recorded as a reverse acquisition of a public company and recapitalization of Z3 Enterprises, Inc. based on factors demonstrating that HPEV represents the accounting acquirer. As such the operation history of Z3 Enterprises, Inc, has been eliminated. The benefit of the agreements which Z3E entered into prior to April 15, 2011 as assets and liabilities have carried over to the post reverse merger consolidated entity.

On June 29, 2011, Ross Giles informed the Board of Directors that he will resign as the Company’s CEO, President, Treasurer and Secretary effective upon the filing of all reports with the Securities and Exchange Commission that were currently past due, specifically the 10K for 2010 and the 2011 first quarter 10Q.

On June 29, 2011, the Board appointed Quentin Ponder as the Company’s new CEO and President, effective on the date of the filing of the first quarter 10Q.

On July 13, 2011, the Company filed a provisional patent application for a heat pipe cooled brake system.

On October 20, 2011, as a result of the filing of the first quarter Form 10Q, Quentin Ponder replaced Ross Giles as the CEO and President of the Company. Ross Giles was not under an employment contract; therefore, he is due no further remuneration. As of October 24, 2011, Quentin Ponder is being compensated by HPEV at the rate of $5,000 per month through his consulting firm.

On October 30, 2011, the Board of Directors granted a non-statutory, fully vested stock option to purchase 200,000 shares of the Company’s common stock between October 31, 2011 and October 31, 2014 at a purchase price of $0.55 per share to Crone Law Group for penalty services rendered and payments defrayed. The fair value of this transaction was determined to be $108,420.

On November 1, 2011, the Board of Directors authorized the issuance of 150,000 shares of restricted common stock to an accredited investor in exchange for $50,000.

On November 10, 2011, the Board of Directors appointed Judson Bibb to serve as the Secretary of the Company.

On December 9, 2011, the Company and Phoenix Productions and Entertainment Group mutually agreed to dissolve their joint venture agreement dated September 3, 2010. The reason was the Company’s change in business direction after the acquisition of HPEV, Inc. on April 15, 2011.

On December 14, 2011, the Board of Directors authorized the issuance of the remaining shares that were previously authorized as part of the Share Exchange Agreement between the Company and HPEV, Inc., as amended by the subsequent Addendum, but never issued. As a result, 500,000 shares of restricted common stock were issued to Brian Duffy, 60,000 shares of restricted common stock were issued to Darren Zellers, and 60,000 shares of restricted common stock were issued to Quentin Ponder.

BUSINESS OVERVIEW

Upon the successful completion of implementation and testing, we plan to license our electric load assist in a parallel platform for vehicles ranging from cars to trucks and buses as well as license our heat pipe technology for a variety of motor-based applications including automotive, aviation, marine, industrial and small appliances.

Our initial focus will be on plug-in hybrid electric vehicle conversions using the parallel platform and on the incorporation of our heat pipe technology in electric motors and generators as well as vehicle components such as brake systems.

For convenience, the terms ‘we’ and ‘company’ are used to refer collectively to the parent company and the subsidiaries.

SUBSIDIARY

HPEV, Inc.

HPEV Inc. has been assigned one patent, one notice of allowance and 11 others pending which cover composite heat pipe architecture and parallel vehicle platforms.

Composite heat pipes can be used to convey thermal energy away from heat sources such as engines, brake calipers and resistors. The pipes operate without using pumps or moving parts and should enable the engines to run cooler. The cooler an engine can run, the more horsepower it can generate and the longer the engine may last. A parallel vehicle platform enables a vehicle to be powered by either internal combustion (gasoline or diesel) or electric power.

By combining HPEV’s new technologies with existing technologies, it should be possible to retrofit internal combustion vehicles to create plug-in hybrid electric vehicles. Hybrid vehicles run on either fuel or electric power depending on which is more efficient for the speed and driving conditions. The increase in efficiency reduces the load on the engine and the reduction should reduce energy and maintenance costs as well as reduce emissions.

The Company is currently in the process of performing its initial conversion. A truck has been acquired. Parts have been ordered and new software commissioned. The conversion, if successful, will be used to showcase the effectiveness of the technology, generate data and function as a marketing tool to generate orders. The target markets include consumer, commercial and fleet vehicles ranging from cars to tractor-trailer trucks and buses.

As the existing infrastructure in vehicle maintenance facilities is sufficient to perform the retrofits, the Company plans to license the technology to automotive dealers and service centers nationwide as well as fleet owners.

It is estimated that the first conversion will be completed in the summer of 2012.

HPEV’s heat pipe technologies should also have applications in any device which relies on a motor or engine: from small appliances to aviation and marine to industrial generators. HPEV has signed research and development agreements with a few electric motor manufacturers. Their initial focus has been on incorporating our heat pipe technology in existing designs in the virtual realm before progressing to the creation of prototypes.

There are plans to incorporate composite heat pipes in vehicle components which generate heat such as brake calipers, resistors and rotors. The new brake components should be incorporated in the initial conversion vehicle and the company has reached agreement with two racing teams to test the technology. If testing is successfully completed, the Company intends to license the technology or new products to existing manufacturers.

By utilizing networks of licensees and affiliates to market and distribute its systems and products, HPEV intends to keep its overhead low and focus on training installers and coordinating the supply chain rather than focus on sales.

STRATEGY

Z3 Enterprises’ strategy hinges on the incorporation of our thermal technologies in motors and generators as well as our initial conversion of a standard truck into a plug-in hybrid electric vehicle. A Ford F350 will be used to showcase the validity of the technology, generate data and function as a marketing tool to generate orders. The target markets include consumer, commercial and fleet vehicles ranging from cars to tractor trailer trucks and buses.

It is estimated that the first conversion should be ready by summer of 2012. As the existing infrastructure in vehicle maintenance facilities is sufficient to perform the retrofits, the Company plans to license the technology to fleet owners and service centers nationwide as well as automotive dealers. Auto dealers should have a particular interest in the technology. They have existing space to offer services, want additional revenue streams and seek ways to increases sales of SUVs and trucks. Z3 will provide training and components while the fleet, service center and dealer mechanics will perform the retrofits.

By utilizing networks of affiliates and distributors to market its products, the Company plans to keep its overhead low and focus on training and coordinating the supply chain to produce the components that will be shipped directly to fleet owners, automobile dealers or service centers for the conversions.

To that end, the Company is soliciting pre-orders and pre-license agreements from fleet owners and dealerships. All new agreements reached and licenses signed will be used to begin promoting the technology.

In conjunction with the completion of the initial conversion, the Company intends to start with a regional roll out on the East and West Coasts, specifically targeting the two states with the toughest environmental regulations: California and New York.

Z3 plans to rely on a highly structured, comprehensive marketing strategy in which each element cross promotes and reinforces the others. The planned marketing mix includes: social media marketing, an online video channel, public relations to trade and consumer media, seminars for consumers and automotive professionals, participation in environmental events and co-op advertising.

We believe the repetition coming from a number of avenues will build credibility and enhance retention. More importantly, we believe it will help cut through the clutter of competing messages that bombard consumers every day.

We believe the cross promotion strategy also will build awareness and help generate sales by creating a number of avenues that will lead potential licensees to the Company’s offerings.

The company intends to commercialize and license its thermal technology to electric motor and generator industries. The first step is signing research and development agreements with major manufacturers. To that end, it has signed agreements with two multi-nationals. Assuming that testing proves successful, the Company intends to negotiate license and royalty agreements for the various niches served by the manufacturers.

Another market for thermal technology that the company intends to target is truck and automotive products such as brake rotors, resistors and calipers. As a first step, the company has agreements with two racing teams to test the technology in their vehicles.

COMPETITION

While the new hybrid electric vehicle industry is intensely competitive and features several multi-national companies such as Ford, GM, Volvo, Honda and Toyota, the market for hybrid conversions is in its infancy. There are a number of small companies selling do-it-yourself conversion kits for individual vehicles, EV Power Systems is pitching conversions for fleet vehicles, AMP Holding Inc. maker of AMP Electric Vehicles and Wrightspeed Inc. offer replacement electric drive trains for high fuel consumption vehicles and VIA Motors is offering conversions of a GM pick-up, van and SUV. To our knowledge, no other company has electric load assist technology in a parallel platform nor an aftermarket commercial platform that is being retrofitted on a regular, on-going basis.

ALTe Powertrain Technologies and Eaton Corporation are converting commercial vehicles by replacing the entire power-train including the engine, transmission, fuel tank and drive shaft. Z3 Enterprises intends to perform conversions by adding standard components along with a patented thermal-engineered traction motor and the patent-pending electric load assist.

We aim to compete in both the individual vehicle and the fleet markets for currently-owned vehicles.

We believe the primary competitive factors in our markets include, but are not limited to:

	● technological innovation;
	● product quality and safety;
	● product performance; and
	● price.

To a limited extent, we will be competing against new hybrid vehicles wherein the consumer or fleet owner has a vehicle that is near the end of its useful life and who elects to purchase a new hybrid vehicle rather than upgrade with a conversion to a plug-in hybrid. However, it may still be cost effective for the consumer to purchase new and then add the conversion depending on the added cost for a new hybrid versus the conversion cost.

Some of our competitors and potential competitors may have greater resources than we do, and may be able to respond more quickly and efficiently to changes in the marketplace whether technological, economic or simply changes in customer requirements or preferences.

Some of our potential competitors are significantly larger than we are, have been in business much longer than we have, and have significantly more resources at their disposal. That enhances their ability to obtain top engineering talent as well as sales representatives with strong industry ties. Plus, their greater market clout could effectively overwhelm our promotional and marketing efforts.

Although we believe that our products and services will compete favorably, we cannot ensure that they will be profitable nor that we can maintain a competitive position against potential competitors. Increased competition may result in price reductions, reduced gross margins, loss of market share and loss of licensees, any of which could materially and adversely affect our business, operating results and financial condition.

We cannot ensure that our current or future competitors will not develop products which may be superior to ours or which may prove to be more popular. It is possible that new competitors will emerge and rapidly acquire market share. We cannot ensure that we will be able to compete successfully against current or future competitors or that the competitive pressures will not materially and adversely affect our business, operating results and financial condition.

EQUIPMENT

As a company that commercializes or licenses our proprietary technology for others to install, manufacture and/or distribute; our equipment needs are project-specific and temporary. We do not intend to purchase any equipment to implement our business operations, but instead we will rent or lease as needed.

MANUFACTURING

No manufacturing will be done in-house. For our thermal technologies, the Company will rely on product development agreements with existing manufacturers who will then pay a license or royalty per unit. For plug-in, hybrid conversions, the Company will rely on off-the-shelf and made-to-order equipment combined with proprietary software created specifically for use on our parallel platform. To that end, the Company has already sourced and priced electric motors and other components as well as software programming. Installations will be performed by our licensees.

PATENTS, TRADEMARKS, AND COPYRIGHTS

Our success depends, at least in part, on our ability to protect our core technology and intellectual property. To accomplish this, we rely on a combination of patents, patent applications, trade secrets, including employee and third party nondisclosure agreements, copyright laws, trademarks, intellectual property licenses and other contractual rights to establish and protect our proprietary rights in our technology.

As of January 31, 2012, our subsidiary, HPEV, has been assigned the rights to one patent and has eleven other patents pending. The issued patent and eight other patents pending relate to the utilization of heat pipes to remove heat from various types of electric motors & generators. By removing heat in a more efficient manner it provides significant cost and performance benefits. The ninth patent-pending is for a composite structure heat pipe. The tenth patent-pending is a parallel load assist that can be used to convert car, SUV and truck platforms into plug-in hybrid electric vehicles. An eleventh patent-pending covers the incorporation of composite heat pipes into brake systems. The technology from the issued patent and most of the patents pending will be combined with the patent-pending, parallel load assist as a basic platform for retrofitting existing vehicles into plug-in hybrid electric vehicles. The patents pending covering heat pipes and brake systems will be used as the basis for incorporation of composite heat pipes into vehicular components and existing electric motors and generators. The Company has also received a Notice of Allowance from the US Patent and Trademark Office regarding a patent for a composite heat structure application in submersible motors.

We intend to continue to file additional patent applications with respect to our technology. We do not know whether any of our pending patent applications will result in the issuance of patents or whether the examination process will require us to narrow our claims. Even if granted, there can be no assurance that these pending patent applications will provide us with protection.

A trademark for the term ‘electric load assist’ has been applied for. A logo and a company symbol have been chosen, but they have yet to be trademarked. However, they are copyrighted. At some time in the future, we will apply for trademarks for the logo and symbol.

Even if we receive trademarks, we still have no assurance that they will prevent competitors from using the same or similar names, symbols, concepts or appearance. Should either happen, we may have to enter into litigation to prevent the use of our property or creative ideas and, at present, we do not feel we have the resources to do so and would probably avoid any such litigation.

GOVERNMENT AND INDUSTRY REGULATIONS

The Magnuson–Moss Warranty Act is a federal law that protects consumers by not allowing a vehicle manufacturer to void the warranty on a vehicle due to an aftermarket part unless, the manufacturer can prove that the aftermarket part caused or contributed to the failure in the vehicle.

Z3 Enterprises intends to add an electric load assist on a parallel platform to motor vehicles. No original vehicle parts will be significantly modified in the conversion process. There will be some additional parts (motor, drive, battery and sensors and controls) added, but these parts will not change how the vehicle operates in any way.

Although we will be adding power directly to the rear wheels, the rest of the drive train will operate according to the manufacturer’s specifications.

Therefore, the original warranty should remain in effect.

All our other components (motor, drive, batteries, controller/sensors) will be warranted by their respective manufacturers.

In addition, the total weight of the additional components added should remain within the vehicle’s Gross Vehicle Weight Rating. As a result, the conversion should not run afoul of either federal or state transportation regulations.

Any change to the original configuration of an EPA certified vehicle, including alternative fuel conversion, is a potential violation of the Clean Air Act prohibition against tampering. The EPA has established protocols through which we may seek exemption from the tampering prohibition by demonstrating that emission controls in the converted vehicle will continue to function properly and that pollution will not increase as a result of conversion. Z3 Enterprises intends to demonstrate that its converted vehicles satisfy EPA emissions requirements.

We also intend to comply with state emission regulations. For instance, California’s regulations require that retrofit systems be evaluated and certified by the Air Resources Board.

LABOR LAWS

Currently, we do have any employees who are members of a guild or union, however, some of those performing conversions at our intended licensees may be members of guilds or unions, which bargain collectively with individual companies or on an industry-wide basis from time to time. Our relationship with our licensees will be at arm’s length. Therefore, our operations will not be dependent upon our compliance with the provisions of collective bargaining agreements governing relationships with these guilds and unions.

EMPLOYEES AND EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENTS

We currently have no employees. We have independent contractors working on our initial conversion. As funding is received and products or additional services are initiated, employees will be hired on an as-needed basis. We do not currently have any written agreements with any proposed employee, although we do have consulting agreements with some of our consultants. We presently do not have pension, health, annuity, insurance, stock options, profit sharing or similar benefit plans; however, we may adopt such plans in the future. There are presently no employee contracts, agreements or personal benefits available to anyone associated directly or indirectly with the company, although we do have consulting agreements with some of our consultants.

ITEM 1A: RISK FACTORS

An investment in our common stock involves a high degree of risk. You should carefully consider the risks described below and the other information contained in this annual report before deciding to invest in our Company. If any of the following risks actually occur, our business, financial condition or operating results and the trading price or value of our securities could be materially adversely affected.

The following are what we believe are the most material risks involved:

Our limited operating history and recent change in business direction makes evaluating our business and future prospects difficult, and may increase the risk of your investment.

We have a very limited operating history on which investors can base an evaluation of our business, operating results and prospects. Of even greater significance is that fact that we have no operating history with respect to converting internal combustion motor vehicles into plug-in hybrid electric vehicles by utilizing electric load assist on a parallel platform.

While the basic technology has been verified, we only recently have begun the final commercialization of the complete HPEV system in preparation for our initial conversion of a vehicle. This limits our ability to accurately forecast the cost of the conversions or to determine a precise date on which the commercial platform for vehicle conversions will be widely released.

We are currently evaluating, qualifying and selecting our suppliers for the hybrid conversion system. However, we may not be able to engage suppliers for the remaining components in a timely manner, at an acceptable price or in the necessary quantities. In addition, we may also need to do extensive testing to ensure that the conversions are in compliance with applicable National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) safety regulations and United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) regulations prior to full distribution to our licensees. Our plan to complete the initial commercialization of the hybrid conversion system is dependent upon the timely availability of funds, upon our finalizing the engineering, component procurement, build out and testing in a timely manner. Any significant delays would materially adversely affect our business, prospects, financial condition and operating results.

Equally, we have no operating history with respect to commercializing our heat pipe technology by incorporating it in brake components nor licensing it to motor and generator manufacturers.

Consequently, it is difficult to predict our future revenues and appropriately budget for our expenses, and we have limited insight into trends that may emerge and affect our business. In the event that actual results differ from our estimates or we adjust our estimates in future periods, our operating results and financial position could be materially affected. If the markets for hybrid electric conversions and/or electric motors, generators and brake components enhanced with composite heat pipe technologies does not develop as we expect or develops more slowly than we expect, our business, prospects, financial condition and operating results will be harmed.

RISKS RELATED TO OUR BUSINESS AND THE INDUSTRY IN WHICH WE OPERATE

The market for plug-in hybrid electric vehicle conversions is relatively new, rapidly evolving, characterized by rapidly changing technologies, evolving government regulation, and changing consumer demands and behaviors. Factors that may influence the conversions to plug-in hybrid electric vehicles include:

Decreases in the price of oil, gasoline and diesel fuel may slow the growth of our business and negatively impact our financial results.

Prices for oil, gasoline and diesel fuel can be very volatile. Increases in the price of fuels will likely raise interest in plug-in hybrid conversions. Decreases in the price of fuels will likely reduce interest in conversions and reduced interest could slow the growth of our business.

Our growth depends in part on environmental regulations and programs mandating the use of vehicles that get better gas mileage and generate fewer emissions. Modification or repeal of these regulations may adversely impact our business.

Enabling commercial customers to meet environmental regulations and programs in the United States that promote or mandate the use of vehicles that get better gas mileage and generate fewer emissions is an integral part of our business plan . For instance, the Ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach have adopted the San Pedro Bay Ports Clean Air Action Plan, which outlines a Clean Trucks Program that calls for the replacement of 16,000 drayage trucks with trucks that meet certain clean truck standards.

Industry participants with a vested interest in gasoline and diesel invest significant time and money in efforts to influence environmental regulations in ways that delay or repeal requirements for cleaner vehicle emissions. For instance, the American Trucking Association has filed suit to challenge specific concession requirements in the Clean Trucks Program, either of which may delay the program’s implementation.

Furthermore, the economic recession may result in the delay, amendment or waiver of environmental regulations due to the perception that they impose increased costs on the transportation industry or the general public that cannot be absorbed in a shrinking economy. The delay, repeal or modification of federal or state regulations or programs that encourage the use of more efficient and/or cleaner vehicles could slow our growth and adversely affect our business.

Some aspects of our business will depend in part on the availability of federal, state and local rebates and tax credits for hybrid electric vehicles. A reduction in these incentives would increase the cost of conversions for our customers and could significantly reduce our revenue.

Hybrid conversions for the general public will depend in part on tax credits, rebates and similar federal, state and local government incentives that promote hybrid electric vehicles. We anticipate that fleet owners will be less reliant on incentives. As for other products we create, there should be no reliance at all.

Nonetheless, any reduction, elimination or discriminatory application of federal, state and local government incentives and other economic subsidies or tax credits because of policy changes, the reduced need for such subsidies or incentives due to the perceived success of the hybrid conversions, fiscal tightening or other reasons could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and operating results.

We may experience significant delays in the design and implementation of our thermal technology into the motors and/or generators of the companies with which we have research and development agreements could harm our business and prospects.

Any delay in the financing, design, and implementation of our thermal technology into the motor and/or generator lines of the companies with which we have research and development agreements could materially damage our brand, business, prospects, financial condition and operating results. Motor manufacturers often experience delays in the design, manufacture and commercial release of new product lines.

If we are unable to adequately control the costs associated with operating our business, including our costs of sales and materials, our business, financial condition, operating results and prospects will suffer.

If we are unable to maintain a sufficiently low level of costs for designing, marketing, selling and distributing our conversion system and thermal technologies relative to their selling prices, our operating results, gross margins, business and prospects could be materially and adversely impacted. We have made, and will be required to continue to make, significant investments for the design and sales of our system and technologies. There can be no assurances that our costs of producing and delivering our system and technologies will be less than the revenue we generate from sales, licenses and/or royalties or that we will achieve our expected gross margins.

We may be required to incur substantial marketing costs and expenses to promote our systems and technologies, even though our marketing expenses to date have been relatively limited. If we are unable to keep our operating costs aligned with the level of revenues we generate, our operating results, business and prospects will be harmed. Many of the factors that impact our operating costs are beyond our control. For example, the costs of our components could increase due to shortages as global demand for these products increases. Indeed, if the popularity of hybrid conversions exceeds current expectations without significant expansion in battery production capacity and advancements in battery technology, shortages could occur which would result in increased costs to us.

We will be dependent on our suppliers, some of which are single or limited source suppliers, and the inability of these suppliers to continue to deliver, or their refusal to deliver, necessary components at prices and volumes acceptable to us would have a material adverse effect on our business, prospects and operating results.

We are currently evaluating, qualifying and selecting the remaining suppliers for our conversion system. We will source globally from a number of suppliers, some of whom may be single source suppliers for these components. While we obtain components from multiple sources whenever possible, it may not always be possible to avoid purchasing from a single source. To date, we have not qualified alternative sources for any of our single sourced components.

While we believe that we may be able to establish alternate supply relationships and can obtain or engineer replacements for our single source components, we may be unable to do so in the short term or at all at prices or costs that are favorable to us. In particular, while we believe that we will be able to secure alternate sources of supply for almost all of our single-sourced components in a relatively short time frame, qualifying alternate suppliers or developing our own replacements for certain highly customized components may be time consuming and costly.

The supply chain will expose us to potential sources of delivery failure or component shortages. If we experience significant increased demand, or need to replace our existing suppliers, there can be no assurance that additional supplies of component parts will be available when required on terms that are favorable to us, at all, or that any supplier would allocate sufficient supplies to us in order to meet our requirements or fill our orders in a timely manner. The loss of any single or limited source supplier or the disruption in the supply of components from these suppliers could lead to delays to our customers, which could hurt our relationships with our customers and also materially adversely affect our business, prospects and operating results.

Changes in our supply chain may result in increased cost and delay. A failure by our suppliers to provide the necessary components could prevent us from fulfilling customer orders in a timely fashion which could result in negative publicity, damage our brand and have a material adverse effect on our business, prospects, financial condition and operating results.

The use of plug-in hybrid electric vehicles or incorporation of our heat pipe technology in vehicle components or electric motors and generators may not become sufficiently accepted for us to expand our business.

To expand our conversion business, we must license new fleet, dealer and service center customers. To expand our heat pipe technology business, we must license vehicle parts and electric motor manufacturers. In either case, we cannot guarantee that we will be able to develop these customers or that they will sign our license contracts. Whether we will be able to expand our customer base will depend on a number of factors, including: the level of acceptance of plug-in hybrid electric vehicles by fleet owners and the general public or the desire by vehicle parts or electric motor manufacturers to enhance their products with our heat pipe technology.

If there are advances in other alternative vehicle fuels or technologies, or if there are improvements in gasoline or diesel engines or even if there are improvements in heat reduction or heat transfer technology, demand for hybrid electric conversions and/or our other products may decline and our business may suffer.

Technological advances in the production, delivery and use of alternative fuels that are, or are perceived to be, cleaner, more cost-effective than our traditional fuel/electric combination have the potential to slow adoption of plug-in hybrid electric vehicles. Hydrogen, compressed natural gas and other alternative fuels in experimental or developmental stages may eventually offer a cleaner, more cost-effective alternative to our gasoline or diesel and electric combination. Equally, any significant improvements in the fuel economy or efficiency of the internal combustion engine may slow conversions to plug-in hybrid vehicles and, consequently, would have a detrimental effect on our business and operations.

While we are not aware of any pending innovations in or introductions of new heat reduction or heat transfer technologies, that doesn’t mean none are in the offing. We have no control of what our competitors are doing nor awareness of their plans until such information is released for general consumption. The introduction of any new technology that offers better or equivalent results at a lower price would have a detrimental effect on our business and operations.

Our research and commercialization efforts may not be sufficient to adapt to changes in electric vehicle technology.

As technologies change, we plan to upgrade or adapt our conversion system in order to continue to provide vehicles with the latest technology, in particular battery technology. However, our conversions may not compete effectively with alternative vehicles if we are not able to source and integrate the latest technology into our conversion system. For example, we do not manufacture battery cells and that makes us dependent upon other suppliers of battery cell technology for our battery packs.

Any failure to keep up with advances in electric or internal combustion vehicle technology would result in a decline in our competitive position which would materially and adversely affect our business, prospects, operating results and financial condition.

RISKS RELATED TO BUSINESS AND ECONOMIC CONDITIONS

The cyclical nature of business cycles can adversely affect our business.

Our business is directly related to general economic conditions which can be cyclical. It also depends on other factors, such as corporate and consumer confidence and preferences. A significant increase in global sales of electric or hybrid vehicles could have a direct impact on our earnings and cash flows by lowering the need to convert existing vehicles to plug-in hybrids. Equally, a significant decrease in the global sales of electric motors and generators could have a direct impact on our earnings and cash flows. The realization of either situation would also have an adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

A prolonged economic downturn or economic uncertainty could adversely affect our business and cause us to require additional sources of financing, which may not be available.

Our sensitivity to economic cycles and any related fluctuation in the businesses of our fleet customers, electric motor manufacturers or income of the general public may have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. If global economic conditions deteriorate or economic uncertainty increases, our customers and potential customers may experience lowered incomes or deterioration of their businesses, which may result in the delay or cancellation of plans to convert their vehicles, reduced license sales or reduced royalties from sales by licensees. As a consequence, our cash flow could be adversely impacted.

Any changes in business credit availability or cost of borrowing could adversely affect our business.

Declines in the availability of business credit and increases in corporate borrowing costs could negatively impact the number of conversions performed and the number of electric motors and generators manufactured. Substantial declines in the number of conversions by our customers could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

In addition, the disruption in the capital markets that began in 2008 has reduced the availability of debt financing to support the conversion of existing vehicles into plug-in hybrids. If our potential customers are unable to access credit to convert their vehicles, it would impair our ability to grow our business.

Our future business depends in large part on our ability to execute our plans to market and license our conversion system and our thermal technology.

Failure to obtain reliable sources of component supply, that will enable us to meet the quality, price, engineering, design and production standards, as well as the production volumes required to successfully mass market our conversion system or failure to translate the benefits of our thermal technology from testing and one-off applications into mass market production could negatively affect our Company’s revenues and business operations.

Even if we are successful in developing a high volume conversion platform and reliable sources of component supply, we do not know whether we will be able to do so in a manner that avoids significant delays and cost overruns, including factors beyond our control such as problems with suppliers and vendors, or shipping schedules that meet our customers’ conversion requirements. Any failure to develop such capabilities within our projected costs and timelines could have a material adverse effect on our business, prospects, operating results and financial condition.

Adverse developments affecting one or more of our suppliers could harm our profitability.

Any significant disruption in our supplier relationships, particularly relationships with sole-source suppliers, could harm our profitability. Furthermore, some of our suppliers may not be able to handle any commodity cost volatility and/or sharply changing volumes while still performing as we expect. To the extent our suppliers experience supply disruptions which may continue to occur in the aftermath of the March 2011 earthquake, tsunami and nuclear crisis in Japan, there is a risk for delivery delays, production delays, production issues or delivery of non-conforming products by our suppliers. Even where these risks do not materialize, we may incur costs as we try to make contingency plans for such risks.

Increases in costs of the materials and other supplies that we use in our products may have a negative impact on our business.

Significant changes in the markets where we purchase components and supplies for the hybrid conversions may adversely affect our profitability, particularly in the event of significant increases in demand where there is not a corresponding increase in supply, inflation or other pricing increases. Volatility may have adverse effects on our business, results of operations or financial condition.

If we lose our key management personnel, we may not be able to successfully manage our business or achieve our objectives.

Our future success depends in large part upon the leadership and performance of our executive management team and key consultants. If we lose the services of one or more of our executive officers or key consultants, or if one or more of them decides to join a competitor or otherwise compete directly or indirectly with us, we may not be able to successfully manage our business or achieve our business objectives. If we lose the services of any of our key consultants, we may not be able to replace them with similarly qualified personnel, which could harm our business.

RISKS RELATED TO LEGAL, REGULATORY, TAX AND ACCOUNTING MATTERS

Our independent auditors have expressed their concern as to our ability to continue as a going concern.

As reflected in the accompanying financial statements, the Company has no stabilized source of revenues and needs additional cash resources to maintain its operations. These factors raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on its ability to raise additional capital or obtain necessary debt. We cannot predict when, if ever, we will be successful in this venture and, accordingly, we may be required to cease operations at any time, if we do not have sufficient working capital to pay our operating costs for the next 12 months and we will require additional funds to pay our legal, accounting and other fees associated with our company and its filing obligations under federal securities laws, as well as to pay our other accounts payable generated in the ordinary course of our business.

We may incur material losses and costs as a result of warranty claims and product liability actions that may be brought against us.

We face an inherent business risk of exposure to product liability in the event that our hybrid conversions or other products fail to perform as expected and, in the case of product liability, failure of our products results in bodily injury and/or property damage.

Our customers have expectations of proper performance and reliability of our hybrid conversions and any other products that we may supply. If flaws in the design of our products were to occur, we could experience a rate of failure in our hybrid conversions or other products that could result in significant charges for product re-work or replacement costs. Although we will engage in extensive quality programs and processes, these may not be sufficient to avoid conversion or product failures, which could cause us to:

	● lose net revenue;
	● incur increased costs such as costs associated with customer support;
	● experience delays, cancellations or rescheduling of conversions or orders for our products;
	● experience increased product returns or discounts; or
	● damage our reputation;

all of which could negatively affect our financial condition and results of operations.

If any of our hybrid conversions or other products are or are alleged to be defective, we may be required to participate in a recall involving such conversions or products. A recall claim brought against us, or a product liability claim brought against us in excess of our available insurance, may have a material adverse effect on our business.

Depending on the terms under which we supply products to a vehicle component or engine manufacturer, a manufacturer may attempt to hold us responsible for some or all of the repair or replacement costs of defective products under their warranties when the manufacturer asserts that the product supplied did not perform as warranted. Although we cannot assure that the future costs of warranty claims by our customers will not be material, we believe our planned insurance coverage should be adequate to satisfy potential warranty settlements. However, the final amounts determined to be due related to these matters could differ materially from our recorded estimates.

The bottom line: we cannot assure that we will not experience any material warranty or product liability losses in the future or that we will not incur significant costs to defend such claims.

Developments or assertions by us or against us relating to intellectual property rights could materially impact our business.

We own significant intellectual property, including a large number of patents, and intend to be involved in numerous licensing arrangements. Our intellectual property should play an important role in maintaining our competitive position in a number of the markets we intend to serve.

We will attempt to protect proprietary and intellectual property rights to our products and conversion system through available patent laws and licensing and distribution arrangements with reputable domestic and international companies. Despite these precautions, patent laws afford only limited practical protection in certain countries.

Litigation may also be necessary in the future to enforce our intellectual property rights or to determine the validity and scope of the proprietary rights of others or to defend against claims of invalidity. Such litigation could result in substantial costs and the diversion of resources.

As we create or adopt new technology, we will also face an inherent risk of exposure to the claims of others that we have allegedly violated their intellectual property rights.

We are unaware of any infringement upon our proprietary rights and have not been notified by any third party that we are infringing upon anyone else’s proprietary rights; however we cannot assure that we will not experience any intellectual property claim losses in the future or that we will not incur significant costs to defend such claims nor can we assure that infringement or invalidity claims will not materially adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition. Regardless of the validity or the success of the assertion of these claims, we could incur significant costs and diversion of resources in enforcing our intellectual property rights or in defending against such claims, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Any such imposition of a liability that is not covered by insurance, is in excess of insurance coverage or is not covered by an indemnification could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Liability or alleged liability could harm our business by damaging our reputation, requiring us to incur expensive legal costs in defense, exposing us to awards of damages and costs and diverting management’s attention away from our business operations. Any such liability could severely impact our business operations and/or revenues.

If any claims or actions are asserted against us, we may seek to settle such claim by obtaining a license from the plaintiff covering the disputed intellectual property rights.

We cannot provide any assurances, however, that under such circumstances a license, or any other form of settlement, would be available on reasonable terms or at all.

We may incur material losses, additional costs or even interruption of business operations as a result of fines or sanctions brought by government regulators.

We will likely be subject to various U.S. federal, state and local, and non-U.S. environmental, transportation and safety laws and regulations, such as requirements for aftermarket fuel conversion certification by the Environmental Protection Agency or separate requirements for aftermarket fuel conversion certification by California and other states.

We cannot assure you that we will be at all times in complete compliance with such laws, regulations and permits. If we violate or fail to comply with these laws, regulations or certifications, we could be fined or otherwise sanctioned by regulators.

We may face risks from doing business internationally.

We may license, sell or distribute products outside the United States, and derive revenues from these sources. Consequently, our revenues and results of operations will be vulnerable to currency fluctuations. We will report our revenues and results of operations in United States dollars, but a significant portion of our revenues could be earned outside of the United States. We cannot accurately predict the impact of future exchange rate fluctuations on revenues and operating margins. Such fluctuations could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Our business will also be subject to other risks inherent in the international marketplace, many of which are beyond our control. These risks include:

● laws and policies affecting trade, investment and taxes, including laws and policies relating to the repatriation of funds and withholding taxes, and changes in these laws;

● changes in local regulatory requirements, including restrictions on conversions;

● differing cultural tastes and attitudes;

● differing degrees of protection for intellectual property;

● financial instability;

● the instability of foreign economies and governments;

● war and acts of terrorism.

Any of the foregoing could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH Z3 ENTERPRISES COMMON STOCK

Sales of outstanding shares of our stock in the future could cause the market price of our stock to drop significantly, even if our business is doing well.

If our stockholders sell, or indicate an intention to sell, substantial amounts of our common stock in the public market, the trading price of our common stock could decline. On January 31, 2012, 48,613,125 shares of our common stock were outstanding. 6,400,100 are freely tradable without restriction or further registration under federal securities laws unless purchased by our affiliates. Shares held by non-affiliates for more than six months may generally be sold without restriction, other than a current public information requirement, and may be sold freely without any restrictions after one year. All other outstanding shares of common stock may be sold under Rule 144 under the Securities Act, subject to applicable restrictions.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, due to the Company’s former shell status, no sales under Rule 144 may take place until October 3, 2012, or one year after the filing of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010, which contained certain information required by Rule 144.

Selling low-priced penny stock is involved and uncertain.

For transactions covered by the penny stock rules, a broker-dealer must make a suitability determination for each purchaser and receive the purchaser’s written agreement prior to the sale. In addition, the broker-dealer must make certain mandated disclosures in penny stock transactions, including the actual sale or purchase price and actual bid and offer quotations, the compensation to be received by the broker-dealer and certain associated persons, and deliver certain disclosures required by the Securities and Exchange Commission. Consequently, the penny stock rules may affect the ability of broker-dealers to make a market in or trade our common stock and may also affect your ability to resell any shares purchased in the public markets.

There is limited liquidity in our shares

The market prices of our shares may fluctuate significantly in response to factors, some of which are beyond our control. These factors include:

●	The announcement of new products by our competitors

●	The release of new products by our competitors

●	Developments in our industry or target markets

●	General market conditions including factors unrelated to our operating performance

Recently, the stock market in general has experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations. Continued market fluctuations could result in extreme market volatility in the price of our shares of common stock which could cause a decline in the value of our shares. Price volatility may be worse if our trading volume of our common stock is low.

There is a very limited trading market for our securities

There is currently only a limited trading market for our common stock. Consequently, you may have difficulty selling any shares you purchased.

We cannot predict the extent investor interest will lead to development of an active trading market or how liquid that trading market might become. If an active trading market does not develop or is not sustained, it may be difficult for investors to sell shares of our common stock at a price that is attractive or at all. In such a case, you may find that you are unable to achieve any benefit from your investment or liquidate your shares of common stock without considerable delay, if at all.

PART II

ITEM 5: MARKET FOR REGISTRANT’S COMMON EQUITY, RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS AND ISSUER PURCHASES OF EQUITY SECURITIES

COMMON STOCK

Our common stock is not quoted on any exchange. Our common stock was previously quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board (the OTCBB). On March 26, 2010, it was removed from the OTCBB due to lack of a quotation by a market maker. Our common stock is currently quoted on the OTCQB under the trading symbol BIBB. Our common stock did not trade prior to September 2010. Trading in stocks quoted on the OTCQB is often thin and is characterized by wide fluctuations in trading prices due to many factors that may have little to do with a company’s operations or business prospects. We cannot assure you that there will be a market for our common stock in the future.

OTCQB securities are not listed or traded on the floor of an organized national or regional stock exchange. Instead, OTCQB securities transactions are conducted through a telephone and computer network connecting dealers in stocks.

For the periods indicated, the following table sets forth the high and low bid prices per share of common stock. The following quotations reflect the high and low bids for our shares of common stock based on inter-dealer prices, without retail mark-up, mark-down or commission and may not represent actual transactions. All prices are split-adjusted to reflect the 6-for-1 stock split in September 2010.

On October 31, 2011, The Crone Law Group was given the option to purchase 200,000 shares of restricted common stock at $.55 cents per share in exchange for penalty services rendered and payments defrayed..

1,823,185 common shares were issued to Capital Group Communications on May 19, 2011 in exchange for public relations, investment professional and investor communications services and consultation to be performed over a two year period (the “CGC Issuance”).

PPEG will have stock conversion rights if and when their amount of loans to the Company exceed one million dollars. The reason: PPEG was given stock conversion rights in the Joint Venture Agreement signed on September 3, 2010. Three days later, PPEG signed a loan agreement with ZE which superseded the joint venture agreement. The loan agreement did not grant conversion rights and covered a loan amount up to one million dollars. If and when the loan amount exceeds one million dollars, stock conversion rights granted in the Joint Venture Agreement will apply. As of December 31, 2011, PPEG has loaned the Company $862,094.

ITEM 7: MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

OVERVIEW

The Company began its development stage in July 2002. Since inception, it has focused primarily on research and development activities, organizing the Company, finding and negotiating with vendors, raising capital and laying the groundwork to take the Company public.

In March 2011, management was presented with an opportunity that they believed should generate revenues far earlier than the typical timeline for income related to films and other entertainment projects.

To that end, on April 15, 2011, the Company acquired through a Share Exchange Agreement, HPEV, Inc, a Delaware corporation that would soon hold 1 patent and 6 patents-pending which cover a variety of composite heat pipes and heat pipe applications as well as a patent-pending related to electric load assist and parallel vehicle platform that enables vehicles to alternate between two sources of power. The initial patent and patents-pending were assigned to HPEV on May 5, 2011. On November 8, 2011, the US Patent and Trademark Office determined in an office action that one of the patents-pending should be divided to create up to 4 additional patents (1 patent could become 5 patents). Management and its patent attorneys believe the company will be issued 4 of the possible 5 patents. On January 18, 2012, the Company has received a Notice of Allowance from the US Patent and Trademark Office regarding a patent for a composite heat structure application in submersible motors.

Two additional patents-pending remain to be assigned to HPEV. Therefore, as of January 31, 2012, our subsidiary, HPEV, has been assigned the rights to one patent, one notice of allowance and eleven patents-pending with two remaining to be assigned.

HPEV’s technologies in combination with existing technologies should enable the Company to convert any existing internal combustion vehicle on the road into a plug-in hybrid electric vehicle. Hybrid vehicles run on either gas or diesel and electric power depending on which is more efficient for the speed and driving conditions. The increase in efficiency reduces the load on the engine and that reduces energy and maintenance costs as well as emissions.

Depending on the vehicle, payback for the conversion could be anywhere from two months to two years.

A prototype will be used to showcase the effectiveness of the technology, generate data and function as a marketing tool to generate orders. The Company’s initial conversion is due for completion in the summer of 2012. The target markets include fleet, commercial and consumer vehicles ranging from SUVs to tractor-trailer trucks and buses.

Many corporate, regional and local fleet owners and operators are being forced to continue to use their current fleet as their replacement fund budgets have been drastically reduced. HPEV intends to offer them a feasible option to extend the life of fleet vehicles for several years as well as reduce operating costs.

As the existing infrastructure at most vehicle maintenance facilities is sufficient to perform the conversions, the Company plans to license the technology to automotive dealers and service centers nationwide as well as to fleet owners.

The Company intends to license its exclusive heat pipe technology as well. Composite heat pipes can be used to convey thermal energy away from heat sources such as engines or even brake calipers and resistors. The pipes operate without using pumps or moving parts and should enable the engines to run cooler. The cooler an engine runs, the more horsepower it can generate and the longer the engine may last. A cooler motor is also less likely to suffer heat-related failure.

Consequently, the composite heat pipes should benefit any device which relies on a motor or engine – everything from small appliances to boats and airplanes – as well as devices that generate heat such as automatic weapons and brake systems.

Subsequent to the acquisition of HPEV, Inc., the Company changed its business focus to reflect HPEV’s.

The share exchange transaction with HPEV, Inc. and its shareholders was treated as a reverse acquisition, with HPEV, Inc. as the accounting acquirer and Z3 Enterprises, Inc. as the acquired party. Unless the context suggests otherwise, when this report references business and financial information for periods prior to the consummation of the reverse acquisition, it is referring to the business and financial information of HPEV, Inc. and references subsequent to the consummation of the reverse acquisition are referring to consolidated business and financial information of Z3 Enterprises, Inc. and HPEV, Inc.

The planned principal operations are to commercialize the technology from patents developed by two of the Company’s current shareholders.

As a result of the Share Exchange Agreement signed on March 29, 2011, HPEV became a subsidiary of Z3 Enterprises, Inc. as of April 15, 2011, the date the merger was deemed closed. For accounting purposes, the acquisition of HPEV, Inc by Z3 Enterprises, Inc. has been recorded as a reverse acquisition of a public company and recapitalization of Z3 Enterprises, Inc. based on factors demonstrating that HPEV, Inc. represents the accounting acquirer.

Subsequently, Z3E changed its business direction and now plans to commercialize the patents and commercialize the Hybrid Plug-in Electric Vehicle or HPEV retrofit system and utilize heat pipe technology that should dramatically improve a broad spectrum of products.

The Company and PPEG mutually agreed to dissolve the Joint Venture Agreement on December 9, 2011.

The Company has an accumulated deficit of $474,215 since inception through December 31, 2011. The Company’s liabilities and equity totaled $1,034,514 as of December 31, 2011. The Company has generated no revenue in 2011. As a result, it has been issued a “substantial doubt” going concern opinion from the auditors.

STRATEGY

The Company’s strategy hinges on the initial conversion of a standard truck into a plug-in hybrid electric vehicle. A Ford F350 will be used to showcase the validity of the technology, generate data and function as a marketing tool to generate orders. The target markets include consumer, commercial and fleet vehicles ranging from cars to tractor-trailer trucks and buses.

It is estimated that the first conversion should be ready in the summer of 2012. As the existing infrastructure in vehicle maintenance facilities is sufficient to perform the retrofits, the Company plans to license the technology to fleet owners and service centers nationwide as well as automotive dealers. Auto dealers should have a particular interest in the technology. They have existing space to offer services, want additional revenue streams and seek ways to increases sales of SUVs and trucks. Z3E will provide training and components while the fleet, service center and dealer mechanics will perform the retrofits.

By utilizing networks of affiliates and distributors to market its products, the Company plans to keep its overhead low and focus on training and coordinating the supply chain that will produce the components that will be shipped directly to fleet owners, automobile dealers or service centers for the conversion process.

The Company will rely on a highly structured, comprehensive marketing strategy in which each element cross-promotes and reinforces the others. The marketing mix will include: social media marketing, an online video channel, public relations to trade and consumer media, seminars for consumers and automotive professionals, participation in environmental events and co-op advertising.

The repetition coming from a number of avenues will build credibility and enhance retention. More importantly, it helps cut through the clutter of competing messages that bombard consumers every day. The cross-promotion strategy also builds awareness and helps generate sales by creating a number of avenues that lead potential licensees to the Company’s offerings.

The Company also intends to commercialize and license its composite heat pipe technology to enhance the lifespan and effectiveness of individual truck and automotive products such as brake rotors, resistors and calipers. The initial phase of commercialization will rely on the signing of research and development agreements with electric motor manufacturers and high performance racing teams. As of January 31, 2012, research and development agreements have been signed with two multi-national motor manufacturers and two racing teams have agreed to test brake systems with HPEV thermal technology incorporated in them.

RECENT EVENTS

On March 29, 2011, HPEV entered into a share exchange agreement with Z3 Enterprises Inc., a Nevada corporation, which was amended on June 14, 2011. HPEV exchanged one hundred percent of the shares of its issued and outstanding for 22,000,000 shares of common stock of Z3E.

The terms of the Share Exchange Agreement require the current board of directors of Z3E (the “Board”) to designate Quentin Ponder and Tim Hassett as directors of Z3E as well as two other directors to be named later by HPEV. The Board has not yet appointed Mr. Ponder and Mr. Hassett to the Board due to current Bylaw restrictions. The Company plans to amend the bylaws and make these appointments as soon as practicable.

The Company currently trades on the OTCQB.

On May 5, 2011, HPEV Inc. was assigned the rights to one awarded patent and six patents-pending which cover composite heat pipes applications and a parallel vehicle platform. Two additional patents-pending are in the process of being assigned to HPEV. The newly-merged Company intends to commercialize the patents by implementing and licensing a plug-in hybrid electric vehicle conversion system based on the parallel vehicle platform. The Company also intends to incorporate its heat pipe technology in automotive components such as brakes.

On June 29, 2011, Ross Giles informed the Board of Directors that he will resign as Z3 Enterprises’ Chief Executive Officer, President, Treasurer and Secretary effective upon the filing of all reports with the Securities and Exchange Commission that were then currently past due, specifically the first quarter 10Q.

On June 29, 2011, the Board appointed Quentin Ponder as the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and President, effective on the date of the filing of the first quarter 10Q.

On July 13, 2011, the Company filed a provisional patent application for a composite heat pipe cooled brake system.

On October 5, 2011, HPEV, Inc. and John Galt Racing (“JGR”) signed an agreement to test HPEV composite heat pipe technology in JGR vehicle brakes, rotors and calipers. The composite heat pipes will be integrated into the components manufactured by third parties, then installed on a GT3 Cup Championship car. A similar agreement was signed with Goldcrest Motorsports on October 17, 2011.

On October 20, 2011, Z3E’s 10-Q for the first quarter of 2011 was filed and Ross Giles’ resignation as CEO, President, Treasurer and Secretary became effective. Quentin Ponder succeeded him,

Ross Giles was not under an employment contract; therefore, he is due no further remuneration. As of October 24, 2011, Quentin Ponder is being compensated by HPEV at the rate of $5,000 per month through his consulting firm.

On October 30, 2011, the Board of Directors granted a non-statutory, fully vested stock option to purchase 200,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at a purchase price of $0.55 per share to Crone Law Group for services rendered and payments defrayed.

On November 1, 2011, the Board of Directors authorized the issuance of 150,000 shares of restricted common stock to an accredited investor in exchange for $50,000 in financing.

On November 10, 2011, the Board of Directors appointed Judson Bibb to serve as the Secretary of the Company.

Beginning on December 6, 2011, PPEG provided a series of 6 loans to Z3 Enterprises’ subsidiary, HPEV, Inc., that ultimately totaled $213,440. The final loan was made on December 29, 2011. All loans were used for general operations and product development.

On December 14, 2011, the Board of Directors authorized the issuance of the remaining shares that were previously authorized as part of the Share Exchange Agreement and subsequent Addendum, but never issued. 500,000 shares of restricted common stock were issued to Brian Duffy, 60,000 shares of restricted common stock were issued to Darren Zellers, and 60,000 shares of restricted common stock were issued to Quentin Ponder.

On February 13, 2012, the stock certificate representing 1,920,000 shares of common stock owned by Richard Glisky was returned to the transfer agent and canceled. The certificate represented the final part of the Rescission Agreement signed with Mr. Glisky in which the Company assigned 100% of its membership interests in Harvest Hartwell CCP, LLC back to Mr. Glisky and satisfied a $22,500 lien it had placed upon the real property owned by HHCCP. With the cancellation of the stock an $8,000,000 stock receivable was removed from the books of Z3E and the number of outstanding shares of common stock was reduced from 48,613,125 to 46,693,125.

On February 17, 2012, the Company filed a Schedule 14a with the SEC which sets forth the Company’s plans to amend its Articles of Incorporation to change its name to HPEV, Inc., to increase the number of authorized shares of common stock from 95,000,000 to 100,000,000, to increase the number of authorized shares of preferred stock from 10,000,000 to 15,000,000, and to authorize the issuance of ‘blank check’ preferred stock by the board of directors.

From the January 1, 2012, to March 7, PPEG loaned the Company $300,000 bringing their total amounted loaned to $1,162,094. The loans were made pursuant to the Loan Agreement signed between the Company and PPEG on September 7, 2010. Loans made under the PPEG Loan Agreement are interest-free.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Fiscal Year Ended December 31, 2011

As the Company was in the process of commercializing its technologies, we had no revenues for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011.

Operating expenses from inception through December 31, 2011, or fiscal 2011, were $5,124,215.

Our operating expenses have consisted primarily of professional fees, payments to consultants and research and development. The Company incurred $1,604,580 of equity compensation to consultants, $2,650,000 of director compensation to Judson Bibb which were paid from shares contributed by PPEG, $100,000 in loss on Trinity Spring deposit and loss on intellectual property deposit of $75,000.

The Company incurred net losses of $5,124,215 since inception.

INCOME TAXES

During the year ended December 31, 2011, the Company recorded an income tax benefit from continuing operations of $461,548. We provided a full valuation allowance on the net deferred tax asset, consisting of net operating loss carry forwards, because management has determined that it is more likely than not that we will not earn income sufficient to realize the deferred tax assets during the carry forward period.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

During the year ended December 31, 2011, the Company had a working capital of $45,809. Cash outflow from operating activities was $475,929. The majority of which consisted of professional fees, payments to consultants and research and development. Cash outflow from investing activities were $44,527 consisting of direct legal fees incurred for patents assigned to HPEV. Cash inflow from financing activities of $598,817 consisted of $548,407 in loans from PPEG and $50,000 from issuances of common stock via subscription agreements.

We have an accumulated deficit since inception of $5,124,215 and our auditors have expressed substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern unless we are able to generate revenues.

The following table provides selected financial data about our Company for the year ended December 31, 2011

	Balance Sheet Data:	12/31/2011

	Cash in bank	$78,361
	Total assets	$1,034,514
	Total liabilities	$988,705
	Stockholders’ equity	$45,809

We are in the process of creating our initial commercialization of our plug in hybrid conversion system and incorporating and there is no guarantee we will be successful in completing our proposed business plans.

Management believes the Company’s funds are insufficient to provide for its short term projected needs for operations. The Company may decide to sell additional equity or increase its borrowings in order to fund increased product development or for other purposes.

We have no off-sheet balance arrangements or obligations or other interests that could affect finances or operations.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based upon our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of our financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the applicable period. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

We define critical accounting policies as those that are reflective of significant judgments and uncertainties and which may potentially result in materially different results under different assumptions and conditions. In applying these critical accounting policies, our management uses its judgment to determine the appropriate assumptions to be used in making certain estimates. These estimates are subject to an inherent degree of uncertainty.

Principles of Consolidation

These consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary HPEV Inc, a company incorporated in Delaware on March 24, 2011.

All significant inter-company transactions and balances have been eliminated.

Year end – The Company’s year end is December 31.

Estimates – The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles 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. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Income taxes – The Company accounts for its income taxes in accordance with Income Taxes Topic of the FASB ASC 740, which requires recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and tax credit carry forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in operations in the period that includes the enactment date.

Management believes the Company will have a net operating loss carryover to be used for future years. Such losses may not be fully deductible due to the significant amounts of non-cash service costs as well as restrictions on carryovers resulting from reverse mergers. The Company has established a valuation allowance for the full tax benefit of the applicable operating loss carryovers.

Current tax laws limit the amount of loss available to be offset against future taxable income when a substantial change in ownership occurs. Therefore, the amount available to offset future taxable income may be limited.

Net loss per common share – The Company computes net loss per share in accordance with the Earning per Share Topic of the FASB ASC 260. Under the provisions of ASC, basic net loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss available to common stockholders for the period by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. The calculation of diluted net loss per share gives effect to common stock equivalents; however, potential common shares are excluded if their effect is anti-dilutive. For the period from March 24, 2011 (Date of Inception) through December 31, 2011, one option (issued October 30, 2011 for 200,000 common shares at a purchase price of $0.55 per share) and no warrants were outstanding.

Stock Based Compensation – Stock based compensation is accounted for using the Equity-Based Payments to Employees Topic of the FASB ASC 718, which establishes standards for the accounting for transactions in which an entity exchanges its equity instruments for services. It also addresses transactions in which an entity incurs liabilities in exchange for services that are based on the fair value of the entity’s equity instruments or that may be settled by the issuance of those equity instruments. The Company determines the value of stock issued at the date of grant. The Company also determines at the date of grant the value of stock at fair market value or the value of services rendered (based on contract or otherwise) whichever is more readily determinable.

Stock based compensation for non-employees is accounted for using the Stock Based Compensation Topic of the FASB ASC 505. The Company uses the fair value method for equity instruments granted to non-employees and will use the Black Scholes model for measuring the fair value of options, if issued. The stock based fair value compensation is determined as of the date of when performance commitment is established or the date at which the performance of the services is completed (measurement date) and is recognized over the vesting periods.

Financial Instruments – The carrying amounts reflected in the consolidated balance sheets for cash and accounts payable approximate the respective fair values due to the short maturities of these items. The Company does not hold any investments that are available-for-sale.

Concentration of risk – A significant amount of Z3E’s assets and resources have been dependent on the financial support of Phoenix Productions and Entertainment Group. The Company is pursuing other avenues of financial support.

Revenue recognition –Revenues are recognized in accordance with the Securities and Exchange Commission Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 104 (“SAB 104”), “Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements”. The Company recognizes revenues when all of the following criteria are met: 1) there is persuasive evidence that an arrangement exists, 2) delivery of goods has occurred, 3) the sales price is fixed or determinable, and 4) collection is reasonably assured.

Advertising costs –The Company recorded no advertising and promotion costs from inception (March 24, 2011) to December 31, 2011.

Research and development – Costs of research and development are expensed in the period in which they are incurred.

Legal Procedures – The Company is not aware of, nor is it involved in any pending legal proceedings.

New accounting standards- The Company has evaluated the recent accounting pronouncements through ASU 2011-12 and believes that none of them will have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements.

OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

We currently do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements.

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

We continue to assess the effects of recently issued accounting standards. The impact of all recently adopted and issued accounting standards has been disclosed in the Footnotes to the financial statements

ITEM 9A: CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

OBJECTIVES:

Management is responsible for planning and performing internal audits of the company. Our objectives are to improve processes and controls.

Our specific areas of focus include:

●	the effectiveness of internal control processes and systems;
●	compliance with laws, regulations and policies and procedures;
●	the effectiveness and efficiency of management systems for achieving objectives while considering business risks; and
●	the reliability and security of computer operations.

Z3 Enterprises’ disclosure controls and procedures (“Disclosure Controls”) aim to:

●	ensure timely collection and evaluation of information potentially subject to disclosure;
●	capture information that is relevant to the need to disclose developments and risks;
●	evolve with the business; and
●	produce 34 Act reports that are timely, accurate and reliable.

LIMITATIONS ON THE EFFECTIVENESS OF CONTROLS:

The Company’s management does not expect that its Disclosure Controls or its ‘internal controls over financial reporting’ (“Internal Controls”) will prevent all error and all fraud. Control systems, no matter how well conceived and managed, can provide only reasonable assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. The design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake.

Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the control. The design of any system of controls also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions; over time, control may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.

CONCLUSIONS:

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

The Company carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of its disclosure controls and procedures as of December 31, 2011 pursuant to Exchange Act Rule 13a-14. This evaluation was done under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s principal executive officer (who is also the principal financial officer). Based upon that evaluation, he believes that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are not effective in gathering, analyzing and disclosing information needed to ensure that the information required to be disclosed by the Company in its periodic reports is recorded, summarized and processed in a timely fashion. The principal executive officer is directly involved in the day-to-day operations of the Company.

Management’s annual report on internal control over financial reporting

Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) of the Exchange Act.

Internal control over financial reporting is defined under the Exchange Act as a process designed by, or under the supervision of, our CEO and CFO and effected by our board of directors, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and includes those policies and procedures that:

--	Pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of our assets;

Provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of our management and directors; and

--	Provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Management’s assessment of the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting is as of the year ended December 31, 2011. Because we have only two officers, the Company’s internal controls are not effective for the following reasons, (1) there are no entity level controls because of the limited time and abilities of the two officers, and (2) there is no separate audit committee. As a result, the Company’s internal controls have an inherent weakness which may increase the risks of errors in financial reporting under current operations and accordingly are not effective as evaluated against the criteria set forth in the Internal Control – Integrated Framework issued by the committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on our evaluation, our management concluded that our internal controls over financial reporting were not effective as of December 31, 2011.

Changes in internal control over financial reporting

During the fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2011, there have been no significant changes in our Internal Controls or in other factors that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our Internal Controls, including any corrective actions with regard to significant deficiencies and material weaknesses.

On October 20, 2011, as a result of the filing of the first quarter Form 10Q, Quentin Ponder replaced Ross Giles as the CEO, President, Secretary and Treasurer of the Company. Ross Giles was not under an employment contract; therefore, he was due no further remuneration.

On November 11, 2011, Quentin Ponder relinquished his position as Secretary and Judson Bibb was appointed to replace him.

As we progress in our business plans, we intend to change our by-laws to increase the number of directors for a term of one year and serve until his or her successor is duly elected and qualified. Each of our officers are selected by the Board of Directors to a term of one year and serve until his or her successor is duly elected and qualified, or until he or she is removed from office. Our Board of Directors, which currently consists solely of Mr. Judson Bibb, has no nominating, auditing or compensation committees at this time.

BACKGROUND INFORMATION ABOUT THE OFFICERS

The following summarizes the occupational and business experience for our officers and director.

Quentin Ponder has served as an officer of the Company since October 20, 2011 when Mr. Ponder became President, Secretary and Treasurer. He relinquished his position as Secretary on November 11, 2011. Mr. Ponder is a seasoned executive with over 40 years of management experience. From January 1958 to October 1962, he served as a general partner in a manufacturing start-up which was successfully sold. From November 1962 to July 1967, he served as Senior Manufacturing Engineer at General Electric where he worked in the development of a flow manufacturing system. From July 1980 to June 1985, he worked for Franklin Electric as President where he restructured the company which became a global leader in submersible motors for water wells. From July 1985 to March 1990, he worked for Baldor Electric as President where he restructured the Company which became one of the largest electric motor companies in the United States. From April 1990 to May 1997, Mr. Ponder worked for Lincoln Electric as a consultant to assist with the successful sale of the business. From May 1990 to the present, Mr. Ponder has worked as an independent management consultant. Mr. Ponder also serves as president and treasurer of HPEV. As such, he is responsible for the administration, finances and all documents prepared for and generated by HPEV, Inc. Mr. Ponder earned a Ph.D. from Columbia University in general management, accounting, and economics. Mr. Ponder was selected to serve as the incoming president of the Company because of his extensive experience in the electric motor industry which includes three stints as president of multi-million dollar companies. Electric motors will be a significant component of the HPEV hybrid conversion system and the Company’s thermal technology applications.

Judson W. Bibb has been the sole director of the Company since April 15, 2011 and was appointed Secretary on November 11, 2011. Since 1983, Mr. Bibb has been a self-employed freelance multi-media producer. His services include: producer, writer, director, cinematographer, videographer, still photographer, audio and video editor, voiceover talent, marketer, ad designer and Internet search engine optimizer. He graduated Cum Laude from the University of South Florida in 1980 with a B.A. Degree in Mass Communications-Film. Mr. Bibb was selected to serve as a director of the Company because of the continuity he provides with Z3 Enterprises’ original mission and his broad-ranging background that transcends a number of disciplines and, consequently, enables him to draw from a wide variety of resources. His background includes experience in marketing and public relations for a clientele that encompassed Fortune 500 corporations, national and international networks as well as a very diverse range of companies throughout North America, Latin America and the Caribbean. His relevant business experience in automotive, trucking, electronics, retail, direct response and the Internet enhance the company’s efforts as it moves in a new direction.

Tim Hassett has been Chairman of HPEV, Inc. since its inception. He began his career as a marketing and business manager, for Rockwell Automation’s Motor Special Products division from1990 to 1995 where he launched new product platforms as well as developed and implemented global distribution initiatives and channels. From January1996 to March 2000, he worked at General Electric initially as a General Manager of Distribution Services in the Industrial Systems Division. His success led to an assignment to turnaround the Electric Motors unit in the Industrial Systems Division. He restructured the unit, consolidated product lines and grew the business significantly. From March 2000 to August 2003, he served as President of Hawk Motors and Rotors, a division of Hawk Corporation, where he restructured the company, eliminated losses and significantly increased market share. From August 2003 to October 2005, he served as Vice President and General Manager of Wavecrest Laboratories, a propulsion systems and controls start-up. At Wavecrest, Mr. Hassett led the development and launch of four new product platforms. From June 2006 to October 2010, he served as president and managing director of LEMO USA, a Swiss-based connector company, where he restructured the company, kept operating costs in check, improved operating margins and significantly increased the size of the business. From Dec. 2010 to October 2011, he served as President of Cavometrix, a connector company serving the medical, energy and alternative energy industries. Mr. Hassett earned a BS in Mechanical Engineering at Cleveland State and another BS in Physics at Youngstown State. He was one of the co-founders of HPEV, Inc and was awarded several patents or patents-pending which the Company will rely on to implement its business model. Plus, he has extensive experience and professional contacts in the electric motor industry. Electric motors will be a significant component of the HPEV hybrid conversion system and the Company’s thermal technology applications.

Family relationships

There is no family relationship among any of our officers or directors.

Involvement in certain legal proceedings

To the best of our knowledge, none of our directors or executive officers has been convicted in a criminal proceeding, excluding traffic violations or similar misdemeanors, or has been a party to any judicial or administrative proceeding during the past ten years that resulted in a judgment, decree or final order enjoining the person from future violations of, or prohibiting activities subject to federal or state securities laws (except where not subsequently dismissed without sanction or settlement), or from engaging in any type of business practice, or a finding of any violation of federal or state securities laws. To the best of our knowledge, no petition under the federal bankruptcy laws or any state insolvency law was filed by or against, or a receiver, fiscal agent or similar officer was appointed by a court for the business or property of any of our directors, officers or control persons, or any partnership in which any of our directors, officers or control persons was a general partner at or within two years before the time of such filing, or any corporation or business association of which any of our directors, officers or control persons was an executive officer at or within two years before the time of such filing.

Audit Committee and Audit Committee Financial Expert

Our board of directors functions as an audit committee and performs some of the same functions as an audit committee including: (1) selection and oversight of our independent accountant; (2) establishing procedures for the receipt, retention and treatment of complaints regarding accounting, internal controls and auditing matters; and (3) engaging outside advisors. We are not a "listed company" under SEC rules and are therefore not required to have an audit committee comprised of independent directors. Our board of directors has determined that its members do not include a person who is an "audit committee financial expert" within the meaning of the rules and regulations of the SEC. Our board of directors has determined that its sole member is able to read and understand fundamental financial statements and has substantial business experience that results in the member’s financial sophistication. Accordingly, the board of directors believes that its sole member has the sufficient knowledge and experience necessary to fulfill the duties and obligations that an audit committee would have.

Code of Ethics

As of December 31, 2011, we have not adopted a Code of Ethics for Financial Executives, which would include our principal executive officer, principal financial officer, principal accounting officer or controller, or persons performing similar functions.

Since April 15, 2011, our management has consisted of a sole officer and director. In fact, our by-laws currently call for a single member board. Once the by-laws are changed and new board members and officers are added, we will adopt a code of ethics. We anticipate that will occur early in the 2nd quarter of 2012.

Section 16(A) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance

Under U.S. securities laws, directors, certain executive officers and persons holding more than 10% of our common stock must report their initial ownership of the common stock, and any changes in that ownership, to the SEC. The SEC has designated specific due dates for these reports. Based solely on our review of copies of such reports filed with the SEC by and written representations of our directors and executive offers, we believe that our directors and executive offers filed the required reports on time in fiscal year 2011, except for the following.

Judson Bibb, Director, received a gift of 5,000,000 common shares from PPEG, a significant share holder. This gift was deemed as compensation for work performed in prior periods. Judson Bibb filed a delinquent Form 4 with respect to his acquisition of the shares in October 2011.

*Judson Bibb received a gift of 5,000,000 shares on October 21, 2011 from PPEG, a shareholder that Z3E had a Joint Venture Agreement with. The Joint Venture was dissolved on December 9, 2011. For accounting purposes, the shares are being treated as compensation.

Employment Agreements

None of the members of the Board of Directors or members of the management team presently have employment agreements with HPEV, however, in 2011, HPEV, Inc. did have a consulting agreement with Summit Management Consulting, Inc., to furnish the services of Quentin Ponder to HPEV for a consulting fee of $5,000 per month. Effective January 1, 2012, the contract was modified and increased the monthly consulting fee to $7,500 per month. Mr.Tim Hassett, chairman of HPEV, Inc., had a consulting agreement with HPEV in 2011 pursuant to which he received $5,000 per month. Effective January 1, 2012, this agreement was modified and increased to $10,000 per month.

Outstanding Equity Awards at Fiscal Year End

There were no unexercised options, stock that has not vested or equity incentive plan awards for any named executive officer outstanding as of December 31, 2011.

Compensation of Directors

Our sole director, Judson Bibb, has no formal compensation agreement in place regarding his service as a director and he has never received compensation from the Company. He did receive a gift of 5,000,000 shares from PPEG, a company with whom Z3E had a joint venture agreement. For accounting purposes, the shares are being classified as compensation.

Mr. Giles has the sole right to vote and dispose of the shares of the Company held by PPEG, and therefore may be considered the beneficial owner of such shares under applicable SEC rules.

Changes in Control

The Company does not have any change of control or retirement arrangements with its executive officers.

ITEM 13: CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS AND DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCE.

The following includes a summary of transactions since the beginning of the 2009 year, or any currently proposed transaction, in which we were or are to be a participant and the amount involved exceeded or exceeds the lesser of $120,000 or one percent of the average of our total assets at year end for the last two completed fiscal years, and in which any related person had or will have a direct or indirect material interest (other than compensation described under “Executive Compensation”). We believe the terms obtained or consideration that we paid or received, as applicable, in connection with the transactions described below were comparable to terms available or the amounts that would be paid or received, as applicable, in arm’s-length transactions.

Ross Giles, former CEO and President of Z3 Enterprises, is a managing member of Phoenix Productions and Entertainment Group, LLC. (PPEG) , a company with whom Z3 signed a joint venture agreement and also with whom Z3 shared leased office space in Las Vegas, NV. PPEG was a major shareholder in the Company.

On September 7, 2010, the Company and PPEG entered into a Loan Agreement pursuant to which PPEG is to lend the Company up to $1,000,000 (the “PPEG Loan Agreement”). Loans under the PPEG Loan Agreement are interest-free and are not convertible into the common stock of the Company as provided in the PPEG Joint Venture Agreement. All loans to date from PPEG to the Company have been made pursuant to the PPEG Loan Agreement.

As of December 30, 2011, the Company has $862,094 in loans outstanding under the PPEG Loan Agreement. The proceeds were used for all aspects of the operations of Z3 Enterprises including the acquisition of HPEV, Inc. which was treated as a reverse merger for accounting purposes. In the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011, PPEG loaned the Company $548,407.

In return for the loans, PPEG is due to receive the full amount of its loans or investment upon receipt of revenues by Z3E. As no revenues have been received by Z3 since the loans were provided, no repayments or interest payments have been made.

On April 12, 2011, Judson Bibb, the Secretary and a Director of the Company, provided an interest-free loan to the Company in the amount of $22,500, which remains outstanding. The loan was secured by the placement of a mortgage lien in favor of Mr. Bibb on real property owned by Harvest Hartwell while it was a subsidiary of the Company. On August 10, 2011, Mr. Bibb executed the necessary documents to discharge the mortgage lien in order to facilitate the rescission of the acquisition agreement pursuant to which Z3E acquired Harvest Hartwell. The rescission took place on September 2, 2011. The Secretary/Director and the Company have yet to make new arrangements for repayment of the loan.

In 2010 and part of 2011, Z3E shared office space with PPEG. In consideration for the use of such space, Z3E paid approximately $5,277 in 2010 and $1,925 in 2011 through August 31, 2011. The sharing of office space officially ended on February 17, 2012. The Joint Venture Agreement with PPEG was dissolved on December 9, 2011 by mutual agreement.

Judson Bibb, Director received a gift of 5,000,000 shares from PPEG a significant shareholder. This gift was deemed as compensation for services performed as director.

Insider Transactions Policies and Procedures

The Company does not currently have an insider transaction policy.

Director Independence

We currently do not have any independent directors as the term “independent” is defined by the rules of the American Stock Exchange.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders

Z3 Enterprises Inc.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Z3 Enterprises Inc. (A Development Stage Company) (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2011 and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ equity and cash flows from inception (March 24, 2011) through December 31, 2011. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Z3 Enterprises Inc. (A Development Stage Company) as of December 31, 2011 and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ equity and cash flows from inception (March 24, 2011) through December 31, 2011 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has suffered losses from operations, which raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 1. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Z3 Enterprises, Inc.

(A Development Stage Company)

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

December 31, 2011

1 . DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND HISTORY

Description of business and history – Z3 Enterprises, Inc., a Nevada corporation (formerly known as Bibb Corporation) (hereinafter referred to as “Z3E” or “The Company”), was incorporated in the State of Nevada on July 22, 2002. The Company’s principal operations were to produce fully integrated multi-media products targeting the marginally literate. The Company changed its focus to educational entertainment and reality show programming; feature films and special event marketing upon entering into a Joint Venture Agreement (the ”Joint Venture Agreement”) with Phoenix Productions and Entertainment Group (PPEG) in September 2010.

From September 2010 through March 2011, Z3E pursued business opportunities, but agreements were never fulfilled and the entertainment projects have been terminated.

On March 24, 2011, Z3 Enterprises entered into a Share Exchange Agreement to acquire 100 shares, constituting all of the issued and outstanding shares of HPEV Inc. (“HPEV”) in consideration for the issuance of 22,000,000 shares of Z3E common stock. Upon closing of the Share Exchange on April 15, 2011, HPEV became a wholly owned subsidiary of Z3.

Control of Z3E changed hands on April 15, 2011 with the issuance of 21,880,000 shares of Z3E common stock to the original shareholders of HPEV pursuant to the terms of the as amended Share Exchange Agreement. An additional 120,000 shares were issued on December 14, 2011 which completed the issuance of 22,000,000 shares of Z3E common stock to HPEV, Inc. under the terms of the as amended Share Exchange Agreement.

HPEV was incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware on March 25, 2011 to commercialize the technology from patents developed by two of its shareholders. Activities during its start-up stage were nominal.

Subsequent to the closing of the Share Exchange, Z3E changed its business focus to attempting to commercialize the HPEV technologies in a variety of markets by licensing its conversion system to fleet owners, vehicle dealers and service centers. The Company also plans to license its heat pipe technologies to engine and vehicle component manufacturers.

On May 5, 2011, a total of 7 patents (1 granted, 6 pending) were assigned to HPEV by Thermal Motors Innovations, LLC, a company controlled by the developers of the patents. On November 8, 2011, the US Patent and Trademark Office determined in an office action that one of the patents-pending should be divided to create up to 4 additional patents (1 patent could become 5 patents). Management and its patent attorneys believe the company will be issued 4 of the possible 5 patents. On January 18, 2012, the Company has received a Notice of Allowance from the US Patent and Trademark Office regarding a patent for a composite heat structure application in submersible motors. Two additional patents-pending remain to be assigned to HPEV. Therefore, as of January 31, 2012, our subsidiary, HPEV, has been assigned the rights to one patent, one notice of allowance and eleven patents-pending with two remaining to be assigned.

F-6

The patents and patents-pending assigned to HPEV cover composite heat pipes and their applications as well as an electric load assist. The utilization of composite heat pipes should increase the horsepower of electric motors and enhance the lifespan and effectiveness of heat-producing vehicle components. The parallel vehicle platform enables vehicles to alternate between two sources of power.

The newly-merged Company plans to commercialize the patents by implementing and licensing a plug-in hybrid electric vehicle conversion system based on the parallel vehicle platform. The Company also intends to license heat pipe technology to manufacturers of electric motors and generators as well as vehicle parts such as brakes, resistors and calipers.

The Company is currently sourcing or commissioning the components to perform its initial conversion. The conversion, if successful, will be used to showcase the effectiveness of the technology, generate data and function as a marketing tool to generate orders. The target markets include consumer, commercial and fleet vehicles ranging from cars to tractor-trailer trucks and buses.

To facilitate the incorporation of the Company’s heat pipe technology in industrial electric motors and generators, the Company has signed product development agreements with two multi-national manufacturers. To prove the effectiveness of heat pipe technology under extreme conditions, the Company has signed agreements with racing teams to test its technology in high performance vehicle components.

As operations have consisted of general administrative and pre-production activities, Z3 Enterprises is considered a development stage company in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 915.

On December 9, 2011, Z3E and PPEG mutually agreed to dissolve their Joint Venture Agreement on December 9, 2011. The reason was due to a change in business direction by Z3 as a result of its acquisition of HPEV, Inc. The Joint Venture Agreement did not provide for any termination penalties.

Going concern – The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the recoverability of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company incurred net losses of approximately $5,124,215 during the period from March 24, 2011 (Date of Inception) through December 31, 2011 and has not fully commenced its operations. The Company is still in the development stages, raising substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to generate future profitable operations and/or to obtain the necessary financing from shareholders or other sources to meet its obligations and repay its liabilities arising from normal business operations when they come due. At this time, the Company is seeking additional sources of capital through the issuance of debt, equity, or joint venture agreements, but there can be no assurance the Company will be successful in accomplishing its objectives.

These financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts, or amounts and classification of liabilities that might result from this uncertainty.

It is possible management may decide that the Company cannot continue with its business operations as outlined in the current business plan because of a lack of financial resources and may be forced to seek other potential business opportunities that may be available.

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Principles of Consolidation

These consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary HPEV, Inc. a company incorporated in Delaware on March 24, 2011.

All significant inter-company transactions and balances have been eliminated.

Year end – The Company’s year end is December 31.

Estimates - The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles 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. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Stock Based Compensation - Stock based compensation is accounted for using the Equity-Based Payments to Employees Topic of the FASB ASC 718, which establishes standards for the accounting for transactions in which an entity exchanges its equity instruments for services. It also addresses transactions in which an entity incurs liabilities in exchange for services that are based on the fair value of the entity's equity instruments or that may be settled by the issuance of those equity instruments. The Company determines the value of stock issued at the date of grant. The Company also determines at the date of grant the value of stock at fair market value or the value of services rendered (based on contract or otherwise) whichever is more readily determinable.

Financial Instruments - The carrying amounts reflected in the consolidated balance sheets for cash and accounts payable approximate the respective fair values due to the short maturities of these items. The Company does not hold any investments that are available-for-sale.

Revenue recognition –Revenues are recognized in accordance with the Securities and Exchange Commission Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 104 ("SAB 104"), "Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements". The Company recognizes revenues when all of the following criteria are met: 1) there is persuasive evidence that an arrangement exists, 2) delivery of goods has occurred, 3) the sales price is fixed or determinable, and 4) collection is reasonably assured.

Advertising costs –The Company recorded no advertising and promotion costs from inception (March 24, 2011) to December 31, 2011.

Research and development – Costs of research and development are expensed in the period in which they are incurred.

Legal Procedures – The Company is not aware of, nor is it involved in any pending legal proceedings.

3.	STOCKHOLDER’S EQUITY

The Company has 95,000,000 common shares and 10,000,000 preferred shares authorized and 48,613,125 and 0, respectively, issued and outstanding as of December 31, 2011.

On April 1, 2011, 1,100,000 Z3E common shares valued at $0.70 per share as of the date of the agreement were issued to Brian Duffy in exchange for his consulting services.

On April 4, 2011, 21,880,000 shares out of the 22,000,000 shares of Z3E common stock were issued to Tim Hassett, Quentin Ponder, Mark Hodowanec and Darren Zellers. The remaining 120,000 shares were issued on December 14, 2011 to Quentin Ponder and Darren Zellers.

Prior to the reverse merger, Z3E had 23,956,690 common shares outstanding. Due to the recapitalization of Z3E with HPEV, the shares were deemed issued as of April 15, 2011 as part of the reverse merger and recapitalization. The value of the shares was based on the net asset value of Z3E as of April 15, 2011, the date the merger was deemed closed.

On May 11, 2011, 1,823,185 common shares valued at $0.75 per share as of the date of the agreement were issued to Capital Group Communication, Inc. in exchange for investor relations services covering a period of twenty four-months valued at $1,367,389.

On September 17, 2010, prior to the reverse merger with HPEV, Inc. the Company entered into an acquisition agreement with Usee. As part of the agreement 10,500,000 shares were issued to the share holders of Usee. Upon further due diligence investigation the Company cancelled the agreement and all the shares were required to be returned. On May 2, 2011 8,369,310 shares belonging to Usee, Inc, were returned to the transfer agent, canceled and assigned a value of zero. The remaining shares were written off by Z3 prior to its merger with HPEV, Inc. On October 21, 2011, 416,750 shares belonging to IFMT, Inc. were returned to the transfer agent, canceled and assigned a value of zero. The shares were originally issued as part of the Usee transaction which was subsequently terminated.

On November 1, 2011, the Board of Directors authorized the issuance of 150,000 shares of restricted common stock to an accredited investor in exchange for $50,000 in financing.

On October 31, 2011 stock options to purchase 200,000 shares at $0.55 were issued to The Crone Law Group, these options were issued in order to satisfy a penalty services rendered and payments defrayed. These options were valued at $108,420 using a black sholes valuation model.

On October 21, 2011 Judson Bibb, Director received 5,000,000 shares from Phoenix Productions and Entertainment Group, Inc., a shareholder of the Company’s Common stock. This stock transfer was deemed to serve as compensation for services performed for the company in previous periods. The shares were valued based on the market closing price of the Company’s common stock as of October 21, 2011, date shares were transferred, resulting in a value of $2,650,000.

4. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

As a consequence of the reverse merger, HPEV took over the obligations of Z3E consisting of accounts payable of $11,637 (non-related party) and a note payable balance of $313,687 due to Phoenix Productions and Entertainment Group, Inc., a significant shareholder of the Company’s common stock. The terms of the loan agreement do not require payment of interest and repayment of the loan is to begin 15 days after receipt of initial revenues related to projects funded by PPEG loans. Maturity of the loan is perpetual or upon mutual agreement of both parties or if conditions are breached or default.

Subsequent to the reverse merger, Phoenix Productions and Entertainment Group, Inc. made loans to Z3 Enterprises of $548,407 leaving a balance due as of December 31, 2011 of $862,094.

During the period from inception (March 24, 2011) to December 31, 2011, Judson Bibb, Director, advanced $22,500 in interest free, unsecured, due on demand funds. As of December 31, 2011, $22,500 remains due and payable.

5. INCOME TAXES

We did not provide any current or deferred U.S. federal income tax provision or benefit for the period presented because we have experienced operating losses since inception. Per authoritative guidance pursuant to accounting for income tax and uncertainty in income taxes, when it is more likely than not that a tax asset cannot be realized through future income, the Company must allow for this future tax benefit. We provided a full valuation allowance on the net deferred tax asset, consisting of net operating loss carry forwards, because management has determined that it is more likely than not that we will not earn income sufficient to realize the deferred tax assets during the carry forward period.

The components of the Company's deferred tax asset as of December 31, 2011 is as follows:

	Since Inception
Net operating loss carry forward	$	1,318,987
Valuation allowance		(1,138,987	)

Net deferred tax asset	$	--

A reconciliation of income taxes computed at the statutory rate to the income tax amount recorded is as follows:

	Since Inception
Tax at statutory rate (35%)	$	461,548
Increase in valuation allowance		(461,548	)

Net deferred tax asset	$	--

The Company had no gross unrecognized tax benefits that, if recognized, would favorably affect the effective income tax rate in future periods. The Company has not accrued any additional interest or penalties. No tax benefit has been reported in connection with the net operating loss carry forwards in the consolidated financial statements as the Company believes it is more likely than not that the net operating loss carry forwards will expire unused. Accordingly, the potential tax benefits of the net operating loss carry forwards are offset by a valuation allowance of the same amount. Net operating loss carry forwards start to expire in 2031.

The Company files income tax returns in the United States federal jurisdiction. With a few exceptions, the Company is no longer subject to U.S. federal, state or non-U.S. income tax examination by tax authorities on tax returns filed before January 31, 2006. The Company will file its U.S. federal return for the year ended December 31, 2011 upon the issuance of this filing. These U.S. federal returns are considered open tax years as of the date of these financial statements. No tax returns are currently under examination by any tax authorities.

6. INVESTMENT DEPOSIT

The Company had the negotiating rights that came with a non-refundable, earnest deposit of $100,000 that Z3E provided to Trinity Springs, Ltd (“Trinity”). Z3E previously entered into an Asset Purchase and Sale Agreement with Trinity Springs, Ltd. (“Trinity”), to purchase Trinity for $18,600,000. The $100,000 deposit would be credited to the buyer at closing.

Final realization of the agreement was dependent upon the approval of Trinity’s board and shareholders. That approval was never granted, so on March 24, 2011, Z3E terminated the Agreement. Discussions concerning the purchase of Trinity Springs continued, but the Company was unable to put together an acceptable corporate structure. On October 15, 2011, the Company attempted to submit another offer for review by the Trinity board. In response, we received information that caused us to withdraw the offer. Since then, negotiations have ceased. As a result, the $100,000 was forfeited during the fourth quarter.

7. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY

Z3E acquired various intangible rights to the works of the Aleem Brothers many of which featured Jimi Hendrix.

In consideration for the rights, the Z3 Enterprises provided a good faith deposit of $75,000. The intangible rights were recorded on the Company’s books as an intellectual property deposit. As the company’s direction has changed and no agreement had been reached to transfer the rights to another party, management decided to write the deposit off.

As of January 31, 2012, Z3 Enterprises’ wholly owned subsidiary, HPEV, Inc., was assigned the rights to one patent, one notice of allowance of a patent and eleven patents-pending with two remaining to be assigned. The issued patent and 9 patents-pending all relate to the utilization of heat pipes to remove heat from various types of electric motors, generators and a brake resistor. By removing heat in a more efficient manner, the heat pipes provide lower costs, improved performance benefits and longer product life. The eleventh patent-pending is an electric load assist that makes it possible for plug-in hybrid electric vehicles to utilize power in any combination from the gas or diesel engine and an electric motor installed on-board. The notice of allowance of a patent covers a heat pipe application in submersible motors.

The direct cost for legal services related to the patents was $44,464. This amount was capitalized as an asset.

8. PREPAID EXPENSE

On May 11, 2011, 1,823,185 common shares valued at $0.75 per share were issued to Capital Group Communication, Inc. in exchange for investor relations services valued at $1,367,389. The services are for a 24 month term. As of December 31, 2011, the prepaid balance is $911,589.

9. COMMON STOCK RECEIVABLE

On September 2, 2011, Z3E and Richard Glisky signed a Rescission Agreement (Agreement) to rescind an Agreement for the Acquisition of Harvest Hartwell CCP, LLC (HHCCP), a Michigan limited liability company. The Agreement for Acquisition was originally signed on September 30, 2010.

As called for in the Rescission Agreement, Z3 Enterprises assigned 100% of its interests in HHCCP to the previous owner, Richard Glisky. Richard Glisky, in turn, assigned 1,920,000 shares of Z3E common stock back to Z3E which the Company intends to have cancelled. As of January 31, 2012, the 1,920,000 shares of Z3E common stock had not been returned to the Company. Consequently, the Company has an $8,000,000 stock receivable recorded on its books (See note 10 Subsequent Events for additional information.).

10. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

On February 11, 2012, the Board of Directors authorized the issuance of 1,000,000 shares of restricted common stock valued at $1,070,000 to Lagoon Labs, LLC at $1.07 per share in exchange for consultations with management as well as providing investor communications and public relations, with an emphasis on digital and social media, for 12 months.

On February 13, 2012, the stock certificate representing 1,920,000 shares of common stock owned by Richard Glisky was returned to the transfer agent, canceled and a value of zero assigned to the shares. The certificate represented the final part of the Rescission Agreement signed with Mr. Glisky in which the Company assigned 100% of its membership interests in Harvest Hartwell CCP, LLC back to Mr. Glisky and satisfied a $22,500 lien it had placed upon the real property owned by HHCCP. With the cancellation of the stock an $8,000,000 stock receivable was removed from the books of Z3E and the number of outstanding shares of common stock was reduced from 48,613,125 to 46,693,125.

On February 15, 2012, the Board of Directors voted to adopt the following:

1) to amend the Articles of Incorporation to change the corporate name from Z3 Enterprises, Inc. to HPEV, Inc;

2) to amend the Articles of Incorporation to increase the number of authorized shares of common stock from 95,000,000 to 100,000,000 and to increase the number of authorized shares of preferred stock from 10,000,000 to 15,000,000;

3) to amend the Articles of Incorporation to clarify the right of the Board of Directors to create and issue classes of preferred stock and to designate the rights, classes and preferences for said stock;

4) to authorize and empower the officers of the company to file with the Securities and Exchange Commission and to distribute to the shareholders an information statement pursuant to Regulation 14a of the Exchange Act with the intent of soliciting the shareholders’ consent for the proposed amendments.

On February 17, 2012 an additional 83,350 shares belonging to IFMT, Inc. were returned to the transfer agent, canceled and assigned a value of zero. The shares were originally issued as part of the Usee transaction which was subsequently terminated

On February 17, 2012, the Company filed a Schedule PRE 14a with the SEC which sets forth the Company’s plans to implement the Board of Directors’ resolutions. The filing included the Notice of Consent Requested, the Consent Statement, the Procedures to be followed, the Proposed amendments and the Consent cards that will be mailed to shareholders.

The SEC had no comment on the filing, therefore, on March 7, 2012, Schedule 14a was filed with the SEC. A day later, the mailing of the proxies began.
