Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

(Unaudited)

 

Note 1 – Basis of Presentation

 

The interim condensed consolidated financial statements of Players Network (the “Company”) included herein, presented in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles and stated in US dollars, have been prepared by the Company, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, although the Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to not make the information presented misleading.

 

These statements reflect all adjustments, which in the opinion of management, are necessary for fair presentation of the information contained therein. Except as otherwise disclosed, all such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. It is suggested that these interim condensed consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements of the Company for the year ended December 31, 2014 and notes thereto included in the Company's annual report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC. The Company follows the same accounting policies in the preparation of interim reports.

 

Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the following entities, all of which are under common control and ownership:

 

   State of     Abbreviated
Name of Entity(2)  Incorporation  Relationship  Reference
Players Network(1)  Nevada  Parent  PNTV
Green Leaf Farms Holdings, Inc.(2)  Nevada  Subsidiary  GLFH
Green Leaf Medical, LLC(3) (4)  Nevada  Subsidiary  GLML

 

(1)Players Network entity is in the form of a Corporation.

(2)Majority-owned subsidiary formed on July 8, 2014, in which PNTV retained 83% ownership, with the remaining 17% held by key experts and advisors. An additional 1.6% was sold to an investor on December 8, 2014, giving PNTV 81.4% ownership and minority interests ownership of 18.6% as of December 31, 2014.

(3)Wholly-Owned subsidiary of GLFH formed for prospective purposes, but has not incurred any income or expenses to date.

(4)Entity formed for prospective purposes, but has not incurred any income or expenses to date.

 

The consolidated financial statements herein contain the operations of the wholly-owned subsidiaries listed above. All significant inter-company transactions have been eliminated in the preparation of these financial statements. The parent company, PNTV and subsidiaries, GLFH and GLML will be collectively referred to herein as the “Company”, “Players Network” or “PNTV”. The Company's headquarters are located in Las Vegas, Nevada and substantially all of its customers are within the United States.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Under FASB ASC 820-10-05, the Financial Accounting Standards Board establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. This Statement reaffirms that fair value is the relevant measurement attribute. The adoption of this standard did not have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements as reflected herein. The carrying amounts of cash, accounts payable and accrued expenses reported on the balance sheets are estimated by management to approximate fair value primarily due to the short term nature of the instruments. In addition, the Company had debt instruments that required fair value measurement on a recurring basis.

 

Deferred Television Costs

Deferred television costs included direct production and development costs stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value based on anticipated revenue. Production overhead is not included as the Company outsources its production costs to third party vendors. Capitalized television production costs for each pilot episode are to be expensed as revenues are recognized upon delivery and acceptance of the completed pilot episodes using the individual-film-forecast-computation method for each television show produced. The Company recognized $95,000 of revenues on November 1, 2012 with the completion of the first of three pilot episodes; and accordingly, recognized $75,617 of expenses related to the development of the pilot. The remaining $135,000 of revenues, and corresponding $116,454 of deferred television costs, were deferred and will be recognized upon completion and delivery of the remaining content. We also delivered a series of ‘webisodes’ and miscellaneous footage in the second quarter of 2014, however, the recipient refused to accept the modification of the terms and we had to reverse the recognition and defer the revenue and related television costs as of December 31, 2014.

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

(Unaudited)

 

Deferred television costs consist of the following at March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014:

 

    March 31,     December 31,  
    2015     2014  
Development and pre-production costs   $     $  
In-production     68,264       68,264  
Post production     48,190       48,190  
Total deferred television costs   $ 116,454     $ 116,454  

 

Due to practical limitations applicable to monetizing our developed content over On-Demand networks, the Company has not considered collectability of advertising or television license revenues to be reasonably assured, and accordingly, the Company has expensed production costs related to the development of our On-Demand and internet-based content as incurred.

 

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue from its internet television platform from internally generated products and from partnered merchants when the following criteria are met: persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; delivery has occurred; the selling price is fixed or determinable; and collectability is reasonably assured. These criteria are met when the customers purchase a product or access a web-based video, the product or web-based video has been electronically delivered to the purchaser and payment has been received. At that time, the Company's obligations to the customer is substantially complete. The Company records the net amount it retains from the sale of items from its internet television platform after paying any agreed upon percentage of the purchase price to the featured advertising merchant excluding any applicable taxes. Revenue is recorded on a net basis because the Company is acting as an agent of the partnered merchant in the transaction. Provisions for discounts and rebates to customers, estimated returns and allowances, and other adjustments are provided for in the same period the related sales are recorded. The Company defers any revenue for which the product has not been delivered or is subject to refund until such time that the Company and the customer jointly determine that the product has been delivered or no refund will be required.

 

Network revenue consists of monthly network broadcast subscription revenue, which is recognized over the period in which the subscription service is available. Broadcast television advertising revenue is recognized when advertisements are aired. Video production revenue is recognized as digital video film is completed and accepted by the customer and collection is reasonably assured.

 

Revenue from the distribution of domestic television series is recognized as earned using the following criteria:

 

·Persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists;
·The show/episode is complete, and in accordance with the terms of the arrangement, has been delivered or is available for immediate and unconditional delivery;
·The license period has begun and the customer can begin its exploitation, exhibition or sale;
·The price to the customer is fixed and determinable; and
·Collectability is reasonably assured.

 

Due to practical limitations applicable to operating relationships with On-Demand networks, the Company has not considered collectability of advertising or television license revenues to be reasonably assured, and accordingly, the Company has not recognize such revenue unless payment has been received.

 

Audio/Video content licensing revenues were recognized when the underlying royalties from the sales of the related products were earned. The Company recognized minimum revenue guarantees, if any, ratably over the term of the license or as earned royalties based on actual sales of the related products, if greater.

 

Deferred revenues consist of the following at March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014:

 

   March 31,   December 31, 
   2015   2014 
           
Deferred revenues on television pilot episodes  $135,000   $135,000

Deferred Rent Obligation

The Company has entered into operating lease agreements for its corporate office which contains provisions for future rent increases. In accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, the Company records monthly rent expense equal to the total of the payments due over the lease term, divided by the number of months of the lease terms. The difference between rent expense recorded and the amount paid is credited or charged to “Deferred rent obligation,” which is reflected as a separate line item in the accompanying Balance Sheets.

 

Derivative Liability

The Company evaluates its convertible instruments, options, warrants or other contracts to determine if those contracts or embedded components of those contracts qualify as derivatives to be separately accounted for under ASC Topic 815, “Derivatives and Hedging.” The result of this accounting treatment is that the fair value of the derivative is marked-to-market each balance sheet date and recorded as a liability. In the event that the fair value is recorded as a liability, the change in fair value is recorded in the statement of operations as other income (expense). Upon conversion or exercise of a derivative instrument, the instrument is marked to fair value at the conversion date and then that fair value is reclassified to equity. Equity instruments that are initially classified as equity that become subject to reclassification under ASC Topic 815 are reclassified to liabilities at the fair value of the instrument on the reclassification date. We analyzed the derivative financial instruments (the Convertible Note and tainted Warrant), in accordance with ASC 815. The objective is to provide guidance for determining whether an equity-linked financial instrument is indexed to an entity’s own stock. This determination is needed for a scope exception which would enable a derivative instrument to be accounted for under the accrual method. The classification of a non-derivative instrument that falls within the scope of ASC 815-40-05 “Accounting for Derivative Financial Instruments Indexed to, and Potentially Settled in, a Company’s Own Stock” also hinges on whether the instrument is indexed to an entity’s own stock. A non-derivative instrument that is not indexed to an entity’s own stock cannot be classified as equity and must be accounted for as a liability. There is a two-step approach in determining whether an instrument or embedded feature is indexed to an entity’s own stock. First, the instrument's contingent exercise provisions, if any, must be evaluated, followed by an evaluation of the instrument's settlement provisions. The Company utilized multinomial lattice models that value the derivative liability within the notes based on a probability weighted discounted cash flow model. The Company utilized the fair value standard set forth by the Financial Accounting Standards Board, defined as the amount at which the assets (or liability) could be bought (or incurred) or sold (or settled) in a current transaction between willing parties, that is, other than in a forced or liquidation sale.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In April 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2015-03, Interest–Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30) (“ASU 2015-03”), which changes the presentation of debt issuance costs in financial statements. ASU 2015-03 requires an entity to present such costs in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the related debt liability rather than as an asset. Amortization of the costs will continue to be reported as interest expense. It is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016. Early adoption is permitted. The new guidance will be applied retrospectively to each prior period presented. The Company is currently in the process of evaluating the impact of adoption of ASU 2015-03 on its balance sheets.

 

In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-15, Presentation of Financial Statements - Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40) (“ASU 2014-15”), which addresses management's responsibility to evaluate whether there is substantial doubt about an entity's ability to continue as a going concern and in certain circumstances to provide related footnote disclosures. The standard is effective for the annual period beginning after December 15, 2016 and for annual and interim periods thereafter. Early adoption is permitted. The Company does not believe that the adoption of ASU 2014-15 will have a material impact on its financial statements.

 

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASU 2014-09”), which supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in Topic 605, Revenue Recognition, including most industry-specific revenue recognition guidance throughout the Industry Topics of the Codification. The core principle of ASU 2014-09 is to recognize revenues when promised goods or services are transferred to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration that is expected to be received for those goods or services. ASU 2014-09 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within that reporting period, and early application is not permitted. ASU 2014-09 allows for either full retrospective or modified retrospective adoption. We do not expect the adoption of the new provisions to have a material impact on our financial condition or results of operations.

 

No other new accounting pronouncements, issued or effective during the first quarter of 2015, have had or are expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements.

Note 2 – Going Concern

 

As shown in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements, the Company has incurred recurring losses from operations resulting in an accumulated deficit of ($27,347,966), and as of March 31, 2015, the Company’s current liabilities exceeded its current assets by $1,785,139 and its total liabilities exceeded its total assets by $1,711,957. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management is actively pursuing new ventures to increase revenues. In addition, the Company is currently seeking additional sources of capital to fund short term operations. Management believes these factors will contribute toward achieving profitability. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

 

The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of any uncertainty as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. These financial statements also do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts, or amounts and classifications of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

 

 

Note 3 – Related Party

 

Officers

On February 14, 2015, a total of 80,000 options held by the Company’s CEO expired.

 

On January 25, 2015, the Company issued 1,500,000 shares of common stock to its CEO as compensation for services as a Director. The total fair value of the common stock was $24,600 based on the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant.

 

Officer compensation expense was $94,345 and $383,318 at March 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively. The balance owed was $-0- and $27,948 at March 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively.

 

Board of Directors

On February 29, 2015, a total of 300,000 options held by one of the Company’s Directors expired.

 

On January 25, 2015, the Company issued 1,500,000 shares of common stock to its President of Programming as compensation for services as a Director. The total fair value of the common stock was $24,600 based on the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant.

 

On January 25, 2015, the Company issued 1,500,000 shares of common stock to one of its Directors as compensation for services as a Director. The total fair value of the common stock was $24,600 based on the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant.

 

 

Note 4 – Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

Under FASB ASC 820-10-5, fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (an exit price). The standard outlines a valuation framework and creates a fair value hierarchy in order to increase the consistency and comparability of fair value measurements and the related disclosures. Under GAAP, certain assets and liabilities must be measured at fair value, and FASB ASC 820-10-50 details the disclosures that are required for items measured at fair value.

The Company has convertible notes that must be measured under the new fair value standard. The Company’s financial assets and liabilities are measured using inputs from the three levels of the fair value hierarchy. The three levels are as follows:

 

Level 1 - Inputs are unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access at the measurement date.

 

Level 2 - Inputs include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (e.g., interest rates, yield curves, etc.), and inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means (market corroborated inputs).

 

Level 3 - Unobservable inputs that reflect our assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.

 

The following schedule summarizes the valuation of financial instruments at fair value on a non-recurring basis in the balance sheets as of March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively:

There were no transfers of financial assets or liabilities between Level 1 and Level 2 inputs for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and the year ended December 31, 2014.

 

Level 2 liabilities consisted of a short term, unsecured, promissory note. No fair value adjustment was necessary during the three months ended March 31, 2015 and the year ended December 31, 2014.

Note 5 – Subsidiary Formation

 

On July 8, 2014, we formed a subsidiary, Green Leaf Farms Holdings, Inc. (“GLFH”), in which we retained 83% ownership, with the remaining 17% held by key experts and advisors, of which 16% was distributed to individuals as compensation for their services, including 3% to Mr. Bradley, CEO and 1% to Mr. Berk, President of Programming, and an additional 1% was sold to one of those individuals for $60,000. An additional 1.6% was sold to an investor on December 8, 2014, giving PNTV 81.4% ownership and minority interests ownership of 18.6% as of December 31, 2014. The subsidiary has been formed as a holding company to potentially own additional subsidiaries that may operate medical marijuana related businesses. These additional subsidiaries have yet to be formed, and, or, acquired, with the exception of Green Leaf Medical, LLC (“GLML”), which was formed on July 18, 2014 and has no activity to date. We had applied for a Medical Marijuana Dispensary special use permit with the City of Las Vegas, and Cultivation and Processing special use permits in North Las Vegas and a license for all permits in the State of Nevada, and have currently been granted the two special use permits in North Las Vegas, however there can be no assurance we will be able to conduct these operations. As such, there is a risk that we may not be able to expand our operations into this field as intended.

 

 

Note 6 – Investments

 

On May 11, 2011, we acquired a 10% interest in iCandy, Inc. (“ICI”), and a 10% interest in iCandy Burlesque, Inc. (“ICB”), Nevada entertainment companies that develop and operate a variety of entertainment shows in the United States, primarily in casinos within Las Vegas, NV and Atlantic City, NJ. We acquired the interests in exchange for $25,499 that was in turn spent on the development of a promotional video that was to be distributed on our website. In addition, we agreed to pay a license fee of 20% of the adjusted gross revenues that we were to earn from the distribution and sales related to the promotional video content. No such revenues have been earned to date. On March 23, 2011 and April 20, 2011 we then loaned $19,000 and $1,000, respectively, to ICI on an unsecured convertible promissory note carrying a 6% interest rate, maturing on May 11, 2012. In accordance with ASC 310-10-35-17, we applied normal loan review procedures and determined it was probable all amounts due from our loan would not be collected due to the financial condition of the debtor. As a result, we recognized impairment of $20,000 in 2011. On November 1, 2012, the Company elected to convert the total note receivable of $22,477, consisting of $20,000 of principal and $2,477 of interest receivable in exchange for an additional 7.5% ownership interest in ICI, and 7.5% interest in ICB. The conversion resulted in a total ownership of 17.5% in both entities as of November 1, 2012. Both the investments and the note receivable had been written off as impaired in 2011 due to valuation and collectability uncertainties, as a result the 17.5% investment in both entities are no longer on the balance sheets as of March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014.

Note 10 – Investment Agreement with Dutchess Opportunity Fund II, LP

 

On November 7, 2012, the Company entered into an Investment Agreement (“Investment Agreement”) with Dutchess Opportunity Fund, II, LP, a Delaware limited partnership (“Dutchess”), as amended on July 5, 2013. Pursuant to the terms of the Investment Agreement, Dutchess committed to purchase, in a series of purchase transactions (“Puts”), up to eight million five hundred thousand ($8,500,000) dollars of the Company’s common stock over a period of up to thirty-six (36) months from the effective date of the registration statement covering the Equity Line Financing with Dutchess, which was September 26, 2013.

 

The amount that the Company is entitled to request with each Put delivered to Dutchess is equal to, at its option, either (i) two hundred (200%) percent of the average daily volume (U.S. market only) of its common stock for three (3) trading days prior to the applicable Put Notice Date, multiplied by the average of the three (3) daily closing prices immediately preceding the Put Date or (ii) fifty thousand ($50,000) dollars. The purchase price to be paid by Dutchess for the shares of the Company’s common stock covered by each Put will be equal to ninety-five (95%) percent of the lowest daily volume weighted average price (“VWAP”) of the Company’s common stock during the period beginning on the Put Notice Date and ending on and including the date that is five (5) trading days after such Put Notice Date (“Pricing Period”). The “Put Notice Date” is the trading day immediately following the day on which Dutchess receives a Put Notice from the Company.

 

For each Put Notice submitted to Dutchess under the Investment Agreement, there is a Suspension Price of $0.01 for that Put. In the event the common stock falls below the Suspension Price, the put shall be temporarily suspended. The Put shall resume at such time as the common stock is above the Suspension Price, provided the dates for the Pricing Period for that particular put are still valid. In the event the Pricing Period has been complete, any shares above the Suspension Price due to Dutchess shall be sold to Dutchess by us at the volume weighted average price under the terms of the Investment Agreement.

 

In conjunction with the Investment Agreement, the Company also entered into a registration rights agreement (“Registration Rights Agreement”) with Dutchess. Pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, the Company filed a registration statement on Form S-1 with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on September 26, 2013 covering 22,750,000 shares of the Company’s common stock underlying a portion of the Investment Agreement. In addition, during the term of the Registration Rights Agreement, the Company is obligated to maintain the effectiveness of this registration statement, as well as any subsequent registration statements that may be associated with the Investment Agreement and/or Registration Rights Agreement.

 

As of the filing date of this report, the Company had not sold any shares to Dutchess nor received any financing from Dutchess.

Note 12 – Derivative Liabilities

 

As discussed in Note 9 under Convertible Debentures, the Company issued convertible notes payable that provide for the issuance of convertible notes with variable conversion provisions. The conversion terms of the convertible notes are variable based on certain factors, such as the future price of the Company’s common stock. The number of shares of common stock to be issued is based on the future price of the Company’s common stock. The number of shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the promissory note is indeterminate. Due to the fact that the number of shares of common stock issuable could exceed the Company’s authorized share limit, the equity environment is tainted and all additional convertible debentures and warrants are included in the value of the derivative. Pursuant to ASC 815-15 Embedded Derivatives, the fair values of the variable conversion option and warrants and shares to be issued were recorded as derivative liabilities on the issuance date.

 

The fair values of the Company’s derivative liabilities were estimated at the issuance date and are revalued at each subsequent reporting date, using a lattice model. The Company recognized current derivative liabilities of $1,175,347 and $1,417,187 at March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively. The change in fair value of the derivative liabilities resulted in a gain (loss) of $152,261 and ($660,326) for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively, which has been reported as other income (expense) in the statements of operations. The gain of $152,261 for the three months ended March 31, 2015 consisted of a loss of $86,971 due to the value in excess of the face value of the convertible notes, a gain of $2,793 attributable to the fair value of preferred stock, a gain of $70,467 attributable to the fair value of warrants and a net gain in market value of $165,972 on the convertible notes. The loss of $660,326 for the three months ended March 31, 2014 consisted of a loss of $51,172 due to the value in excess of the face value of the convertible notes, a gain of $20,838 attributable to the fair value of preferred stock, a loss of $29,476 attributable to the fair value of warrants and a net loss in market value of $600,516 on the convertible notes.

 

The following presents the derivative liability value by instrument type at March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively:

 

   March 31,   December 31, 
   2015   2014 
Convertible debentures  $1,135,058   $1,301,032 
Common stock warrants   40,289    110,756

Debt conversions   (244,579)

Key inputs and assumptions used to value the convertible debentures and warrants issued during the three months ended March 31, 2015 and the year ended December 31, 2014:

Stock prices on all measurement dates were based on the fair market value and would fluctuate with projected volatility.
The warrant exercise prices ranged from $0.04 to $0.18, exercisable over 2 to 10 year periods from the grant date.
The holders of the securities would convert monthly to the ownership limit starting at 4.99% increasing by 10% per month.
The holders would automatically convert the note at the maximum of 3 times the conversion price if the Company was not in default.
The monthly trading volume would reflect historical averages and would increase at 1% per month.
The Company would redeem the notes based on availability of alternative financing, increasing 2% monthly to a maximum of 10%.
The holder would automatically convert the note at maturity if the registration was effective and the Company was not in default.
The computed volatility was projected based on historical volatility.

 

 

Note 13 – Changes in Stockholders’ Equity (Deficit)

 

Convertible Preferred Stock

The Board, from the authorized capital of 25,000,000 preferred shares, has authorized and designated 2,000,000 shares of Series A preferred stock (“Series A”) and 10,873,347 shares of Series B preferred stock (“Series B”), of which 2,000,000 shares and -0- shares are issued and outstanding, respectively. A total of 12,126,653 shares remain undesignated.

 

The Series A shares carry 25:1 preferential voting rights, and are convertible into shares of common stock on a 1:1 basis.

 

The Series B shares are convertible at the option of the holder into shares of common stock at an initial ratio of one share of series B preferred stock into one share of common stock (1:1), as adjusted for the dilutive effects of additional stock subsequent to the original issuance of the series B shares on December 17, 2010. The Series B Preferred conversion ratio shall be adjusted to a price determined by multiplying such Conversion Price by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock Outstanding (meaning (1) outstanding Common Stock, (2) Common Stock issuable upon conversion of outstanding Preferred Stock, (3) Common Stock issuable upon exercise of outstanding stock options (including Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of shares or other securities issued pursuant to the exercise of outstanding stock options) and (4) Common Stock issuable upon exercise (and, in the case of warrants to purchase Preferred Stock or other securities, conversion) of outstanding warrants. Shares described in (1) through (4) above shall be included whether vested or unvested, whether contingent or non-contingent and whether exercisable or not yet exercisable.) immediately prior to such issuance plus the number of shares of Common Stock that the aggregate consideration received by this Corporation for such issuance would purchase at such Conversion Price; and the denominator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock Outstanding immediately prior to such issuance plus the number of shares of such Additional Stock. The maximum shares of common stock convertible are to be reserved from the authorized shares.

Note 16 – Income Taxes

 

The Company accounts for income taxes under FASB ASC 740-10, which requires use of the liability method. FASB ASC 740-10-25 provides that deferred tax assets and liabilities are recorded based on the differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts for financial reporting purposes, referred to as temporary differences.

 

For the three months ended March 31, 2015 and the year ended December 31, 2014, the Company incurred a net operating loss and, accordingly, no provision for income taxes has been recorded. In addition, no benefit for income taxes has been recorded due to the uncertainty of the realization of any tax assets. At March 31, 2015, the Company had approximately $19,200,000 of federal net operating losses. The net operating loss carry forwards, if not utilized, will begin to expire in 2025.

 

The components of the Company’s deferred tax asset are as follows:

 

   March 31,   December 31, 
   2015   2014 
Deferred tax assets:        
Net operating loss carry forwards  $6,720,000   $6,440,000 
           
Net deferred tax assets before valuation allowance   6,720,000    6,440,000 
Less: Valuation allowance   (6,720,000)   (6,440,000)
Net deferred tax assets  $   $ 

 

Based on the available objective evidence, including the Company’s history of its loss, management believes it is more likely than not that the net deferred tax assets will not be fully realizable. Accordingly, the Company provided for a full valuation allowance against its net deferred tax assets at March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively.

   2015   2014 
           
Federal and state statutory rate   35%    35% 
Change in valuation allowance on deferred tax assets   (35%)   (35%)

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

 

Overview and Outlook

 

Players Network is a vertically integrated diversified, fully reporting public company that is engaged in the development of digital networks, and is actively pursuing the cultivation and processing of medical marijuana in North Las Vegas pursuant to two medical marijuana establishments (MME) licenses we were granted by the city of North Las Vegas for cultivation and production. The Company holds an 81.4% interest in Green Leaf Farms Holdings, LLC, which is a holding company formed to house our medical marijuana business. We distribute broadband video and other social media content over a wide variety of internet enabled devices and cable television channels. The Company has launched its proprietary scalable NexGenTV technology platform. The platform is designed to deliver video content and develop digital social communities, including “Vegas On Demand TV”, “Real Vegas TV” and “Weed TV” on the media side of the business.

 

The Company operates a Video On Demand (“VOD”) television channel, also named Vegas On Demand, which consists of original programming that is distributed over its own VOD channels to approximately 23 million homes via a major cable company, and 80 million homes via the internet on the Over The Top Television platform, with distribution partners that include Blinkx, YouTube Video and other internet and various mobile platforms. Players Network has a seventeen-year history of providing consumers with quality ‘Gaming and Las Vegas Lifestyle’ video content.

 

We have developed NexGenTV, an innovative, proprietary Enterprise Web Platform that incorporates the best parts of Hulu, YouTube, Facebook, Zenga and Groupon. We believe it will change how businesses approach building digital brand extensions.

 

NexGenTV, our scalable Digital Technology Platform, allows Players Network to distribute content for brands, businesses and celebrities, and provide them with an unlimited amount of lifestyle category content and the tools to launch their own “Branded Channel, Social Community and Marketplace Destination”. NexGenTV’s scalability can create hundreds of niche digital networks that can be viewed worldwide on any smart TV, computer, tablet or mobile device by millions of people simultaneously. The platform allows advertisers and marketing partners the ability to capture their target market through rich content such as professionally produced, branded television segments; user-generated videos; blogs; editorials; tweets; photos; special offers; events and custom-designed contests.

 

Our business model incorporates elements of traditional proven media features such as advertising and transactional delivery methods, but also offers professional production, marketing and distribution services to build and monetize its branded channel destination, in which we will retain a continuous revenue stream with our partners. Channel partners have the option to manage their own Branded New Media Channel, or use our professional services team of television producers, writers, graphic designers and technologists to keep their channel updated, and their content fresh and relevant.

 

Vegas On Demand TV, Real Vegas TV and Weed TV are the Company’s first three channel offerings that provide their audience the ability to connect to industry insiders and businesses through unique, high-quality marketing, content production and content management system. In the Las Vegas market, Vegas On Demand captures the excitement, sex appeal, entertainment, and the non-stop adrenaline rush of the Las Vegas gaming lifestyle. Our content goes beyond poker, casino action, sports betting, and racing, to lifestyle programs about entertainment and fine living that attract young and sophisticated viewers that comprise the major digital media demographic. Whenever possible, our content will incorporate an expert, insider or celebrity within the Vegas community in order to enhance promotional merchandising to prospective customers.

 

Weed TV launched on April 20, 2014, and was the Company’s third network to be launched. Weed TV is a Lifestyle Channel Destination powered by PNTV’s NextGenTV(SM) enterprise platform. Weed TV is the ‘go to’ source for informational entertainment, products and services for people who relate to the marijuana lifestyle and social community. Weed TV will feature daily stories sourced by weedtv.com correspondents and contributors from around the world. It will provide a wide variety of editorial content, videos and entertainment, including lead stories, political news, business news on the industry, financial analysis from industry experts, growing tips, cooking tips, a “Weed101” section, medical uses, lifestyle features, entertainment specials and merchandise shopping cart offering the latest products and services.

 

25
 

We plan for Weed TV to have other features by the middle of 2015 and adapt new technology that the other networks don’t have, including a directory of businesses that cater to the marijuana business, such as dispensaries, smoke shops, doctors, financial institutions, manufactures and more. These businesses will have a free basic listing and the ability to upgrade for an extra fee of about $500 per month, where they can build their own media channel using the ‘NextGenTV” Platform. We estimate this market is in excess of approximately 70,000 businesses and will continue to grow as more states legalize MME businesses. Our goal in 2015 is to begin to capture this market that will translate to significant revenues even if we only convert a small amount of this market into marketing partners who use our platform.

 

We plan to use both Weed TV’s platform and original branded programming and events, as a means to develop additional revenue streams, in addition to providing marketing and membership benefits of our social media platform. These revenue streams include branded entertainment, sponsorships for events, media placement, third party commissions for video and banner advertisements, merchandise and production sales and services.

 

We have addressed the digital market in an effort to grow as a New Media Company using “Vegas On Demand” and Real Vegas TV, our flagship branded television channel, and to use our scalable custom enterprise web platform, which can also be replicated to launch thousands of channel destinations in any lifestyle category for any lifestyle brand.

 

Our enterprise platform is highly scalable and can efficiently deploy, manage and distribute videos with integrated revenue-generating tools that go beyond traditional advertising. On our platform, the viewer of a video is brought into a web environment encompassing the lifestyle represented within the video content where they are presented with membership, merchandising, couponing, subscription, loyalty programs, contest and other marketing opportunities, including the integration of live events. The platform also integrates branded sponsorships, and a game-like virtual economy supported by our Cost Per Action (“CPA”) advertising network.

 

Our next-generation media network operates across all distribution platforms from TV screens to mobile devices, gaming consoles, computers and tablets. We have positioned ourselves to provide companies an affordable, turnkey, integrated solution. We have not yet generated revenues from our Platform, but plan to market our services to companies in 2015.

 

Through the cross-promotional integration of sponsored live events, contests and media creation and distribution, our Platform can deliver a targeted audience that can be monetized in multiple ways. The platform is an engine that grows as audience and page views increase. The platform also provides a self-perpetuating aggregation juncture where Las Vegas businesses and “insiders” can connect socially with their audience/customer.

 

The ability to monetize video in so many ways, coupled with an efficient, easy-to-use technical and administrative back-end dashboard is a powerful feature of our platform. It allows the creation of unlimited, new channel destinations using our scalable content management system (“CMS”) framework, with cost-competitive operations. Importantly, it enables administrative and editorial level employees to manage content without the expense of having a full-time technical engineering staff in-house.

 

Premium members must be industry insiders and/or experts in their lifestyle category. For example, with regard to Vegas On Demand, insiders are designed to be the who’s-who of Vegas: entertainers, nightclub promoters, casino hosts, famous chefs, etc. who offer our members deals on transactions connected to their sphere of influence. Deals may include being invited to a special VIP event, line passes, two-for-one offers, pay-per-view video discounts, etc.

Revenues:

 

During the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, we received revenues primarily from the sale of in-home media and advertising fees on content development. Aggregate revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2015 were $307, compared to revenues of $290 in the three months ended March 31, 2014, an increase in revenues of $17, or 6%.

 

Direct Operating Costs:

 

Direct operating costs were $24,603 for the three months ended March 31, 2015 compared to $46,019 for the three months ended March 31, 2014, a decrease of $21,416, or 47%. Our direct operating costs decreased primarily due to diminished content production for our new media channel, Weed.tv, as we focused more on the development of our medical marijuana ventures during the three months ended March 31, 2015.

 

General and Administrative:

 

General and administrative expenses were $241,297 for the three months ended March 31, 2015, compared to $153,631 for the three months ended March 31, 2014, an increase of $87,666, or 57%. General and administrative expense increased primarily due to increased stock-based compensation paid to employees and consultants during the three months ended March 31, 2015 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2014.

 

Officer salaries:

 

Officer salaries expense totaled $94,345 for the three months ended March 31, 2015, compared to $383,317 for the three months ended March 31, 2014, a decrease of $288,972, or 75%. The decrease in officer salaries was primarily due to non-cash, stock-based compensation bonuses issued to our CEO during the three months ended March 31, 2014, consisting of 4 million shares of common stock with a fair value of $120,000, and 8 million common stock options valued at $217,971, that were greater than the comparative stock-based compensation, consisting of 1.5 million shares of common stock with a fair value of $24,600, during the three months ended March 31, 2015.

 

Depreciation and Amortization:

 

Depreciation and amortization expense was $7,536 for the three months ended March 31, 2015, compared to $5,737 for the three months ended March 31, 2014, an increase of $1,799, or 31%. The increase in depreciation and amortization was primarily due to additional depreciation on a total of $34,648 of fixed asset additions acquired during the three months ending March 31, 2014.

 

27
 

Net Operating Loss:

 

Net operating loss for the three months ended March 31, 2015 was $367,474, or ($0.00) per share, compared to a net operating loss of $588,414 for the three months ended March 31, 2014, or ($0.00) per share, a decrease of $220,940, or 38%. Net operating loss decreased primarily due to stock based compensation bonuses issued to our officers and directors that were granted in the comparative quarter that weren’t issued during the three months ended March 31, 2015.

 

Other Income (Expense):

 

Other income (expense) was $(132,848) for the three months ended March 31, 2015, compared to $(387,161) for the three months ended March 31, 2014, a decrease of $254,313, or 66%. Other expense decreased on a net basis primarily due to an $812,587 increase in our $152,261 net gain related to the change in derivative liabilities on our convertible debentures recognized during the three months ended March 31, 2015, compared to the net loss of $660,326 related to the change in derivative liabilities recognized during the three months ended March 31, 2014, as diminished by, increased interest expense of $223,931 on our increased indebtedness during the three months ended March 31, 2015, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2014, and a decreased gain on debt extinguishment of $334,343 during the three months ended March 31, 2015, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2014.

 

Net Loss:

 

The net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2015 was $500,322, or ($0.00) per share, compared to a net loss of $975,575, or ($0.01) per share, for the three months ended March 31, 2014, a decreased net loss of $475,253, or 49%. Net loss decreased primarily due to $313,371 less of stock based compensation issued to our CEO, and an $812,587 increase in our net gain related to the change in derivative liabilities on our convertible debentures, as diminished by, increased interest expense of $223,931 on our increased indebtedness and a decreased gain on debt extinguishment of $334,343 during the three months ended March 31, 2015, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2014.

Debt Financing

On March 11, 2015, the Company received net proceeds of $70,000 in exchange for a 12% interest bearing, unsecured convertible promissory note dated March 2, 2015 with a face value of $75,000 (“First JSJ Note”), which matures on September 2, 2015. The principal and interest is convertible into shares of common stock at the discretion of the note holder at a price equal to the lesser of: (i) 58% of the average of the two (2) lowest closing prices over the 10 days prior to conversion; or (ii) 58% of the average of the two (2) lowest closing prices over the 10 days prior to the execution of the note (which was $0.008932). The note includes prepayment cash redemption penalties between 25% and 40% of outstanding principal and interest, and the debt holder is limited to owning 4.99% of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares. The Company must at all times reserve at least 30 million shares of common stock for potential conversions.

 

On February 5, 2015, the Company received net proceeds of $50,000 with a face value of $53,750 that carries an 8% interest rate (“Second Tangiers Note”), which matures on February 5, 2016. The note is part of total loan offering with a $236,500 face value and OID of 7.5% of any consideration paid, whereby $75,250 was previously advanced with the initial execution of the note on October 13, 2014. The principal and interest is convertible into shares of common stock at the discretion of the note holder at a price equal to sixty percent (60%) of the average of the two lowest trading prices of the Company’s common stock for the fifteen (15) trading days prior to, and including, the conversion date. In the event the Company experiences a DTC “Chill” on its shares, the conversion price shall be decreased to fifty percent (50%), rather than the sixty percent (60%) conversion rate while that “Chill” is in effect, and an additional 5% discount if the Depository Trust Company’s (“DTC”) Fast Automated Securities Transfer (“FAST”) is not eligible for a cumulative total conversion price equal to forty five percent (45%). The note carries a twenty percent (20%) interest rate and $1,000 per day of liquidated damages in the event of default, and the debt holder is limited to owning 4.99% of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares. The Company paid total debt issuance cost of $2,500 that is being amortized on the straight line method, which approximates the effective interest method, over the life of the loan. The Company must at all times reserve at least 5 million shares of common stock for potential conversions.

 

On January 27, 2015, the Company received $35,000 in exchange for an unsecured convertible promissory note with a face value of $36,750 that carries a 12% interest rate (“Second Group 10 Note”), which matures on January 27, 2016. The principal and interest is convertible into shares of common stock at the discretion of the note holder at a price equal to the lesser of (a) fifty-eight percent (58%) multiplied by the Lowest Closing Price as of the date a Notice of Conversion is given (which represents a discount rate of forty-two percent (42%)) or (b) five cents ($0.05). The conversion price is subject to the following adjustments:

i.If the market capitalization of the Borrower is less than Three Hundred Thousand Dollars ($300,000) on the day immediately prior to the date of the Notice of Conversion, then the Conversion Price shall be twenty-five percent (25%) multiplied by the Lowest Closing Price as of the date a Notice of Conversion is given (which represents a discount rate of seventy-five percent (75%)); and
ii.If the closing price of the Borrower’s Common Stock on the day immediately prior to the date of the Notice of Conversion is less than .001 then the Conversion Price shall be twenty-five percent (25%) multiplied by the Lowest Closing Price as of the date a Notice of Conversion is given (which represents a discount rate of seventy-five percent (75%)).

 

29
 

The note carries an eighteen percent (18%) interest rate in the event of default along with a $1,000 penalty per business day commencing the business day following the date of the event of default. The note also includes prepayment cash redemption penalties between up to 15% of outstanding principal and interest, and the debt holder is limited to owning 4.99% of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares. The promissory note carries a $1,750 Original Issue Discount that is being amortized over the life of the loan on the straight line method, which approximates the effective interest method. The Company must at all times reserve at least 20 million shares of common stock for potential conversions.

 

We have utilized these funds to repay $50,542 of previously issued convertible debentures, comply with our regulatory reporting requirements, and to expand our media distribution platforms to launch Weed.tv. Although our revenues are expected to grow as we expand our operations, our revenues are not expected to exceed our investment and operating costs in the next twelve months, and we do not have funds sufficient to fund our operations at their current level for the next twelve months. Our prospects must be considered in light of the risks, expenses and difficulties frequently encountered by companies in their early stage of operations. To address these risks, we must, among other things, seek growth opportunities through investment and acquisitions in our industry, effectively monitor and manage our claims for payments that are owed to us, implement and successfully execute our business strategy, respond to competitive developments, and attract, retain and motivate qualified personnel. We cannot assure that we will be successful in addressing such risks, and the failure to do so could have a material adverse effect on our business prospects, financial condition and results of operations.

 

To conserve on the Company's capital requirements, the Company has issued shares in lieu of cash payments to outside consultants, and the Company expects to continue this practice. In the three months ended March 31, 2015, the Company granted a total of 9,600,000 shares of common stock valued at $157,440 in lieu of cash payments to employees and outside consultants, compared to the issuance of 6,708,333 shares of common stock valued at $235,259 in lieu of cash payments to employees and outside consultants during the three months ending March 31, 2014. In addition, the Company exchanged 4,349,339 shares of common stock for 4,349,339 shares of series B preferred stock, resulting in $47,843 of stock based compensation. The Company is not now in a position to determine an approximate number of shares that the Company may issue for the preceding purpose in the remainder of 2015.

 

During the three months ended March 31, 2015, we issued a total of 15,390,595 shares of common stock pursuant to the conversion of $126,221 of indebtedness on convertible debentures. The conversion prices of a total of $726,818 in outstanding convertible notes outstanding as of March 31, 2015, is convertible at various prices discounted to market as depicted in the table below. As a result, any conversion of the Convertible Notes and sale of shares of common stock issuable in connection with the conversion thereof will likely cause the value of our common stock, if any, to decline in value, as described in greater detail under the Risk Factors below.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

As of March 31, 2015, we did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a material current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.

 

Going Concern

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates continuity of operations, realization of assets, and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business.

 

The Company has had recurring net losses, an accumulated deficit, and a working capital deficiency. These conditions raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management plans to try to increase sales and improve operating results through the expansion of the distribution channels of our programming with a view to increasing advertising and sponsorship revenues. Management believes that funds generated from operations will not be sufficient to cover cash needs in the foreseeable future, and we will continue to rely on expected increased revenues and private equity to cover our cash needs, although there can be no assurance in this regard. In the event sales do not materialize at the expected rates, management would seek additional financing or would conserve cash by further reducing expenses. There can be no assurance that we will be successful in achieving these objectives, becoming profitable or continuing our business without either a temporary interruption or a permanent cessation.

 

The unaudited consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments related to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

 

Critical Accounting Policies

 

We have identified the following policies below as critical to our business and results of operations. Our reported results are impacted by the application of the following accounting policies, certain of which require management to make subjective or complex judgments. These judgments involve making estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain and may significantly impact quarterly or annual results of operations. For all of these policies, management cautions that future events rarely develop exactly as expected, and the best estimates routinely require adjustment. Specific risks associated with these critical accounting policies are described in the following paragraphs.

 

Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the following entities, all of which are under common control and ownership:

 

    State of       Abbreviated
Name of Entity(2)   Incorporation   Relationship   Reference
Players Network(1)   Nevada   Parent   PNTV
Green Leaf Farms Holdings, Inc.(2)   Nevada   Subsidiary   GLFH
Green Leaf Medical, LLC(3) (4)   Nevada   Subsidiary   GLML

(1)Players Network entity is in the form of a Corporation.

(2)Majority-owned subsidiary formed on July 8, 2014, in which PNTV retained 83% ownership, with the remaining 17% held by key experts and advisors. An additional 1.6% was sold to an investor on December 8, 2014, giving PNTV 81.4% ownership and minority interests ownership of 18.6% as of December 31, 2014.

(3)Wholly-Owned subsidiary of GLFH formed for prospective purposes, but has not incurred any income or expenses to date.

(4)Entity formed for prospective purposes, but has not incurred any income or expenses to date.

 

The consolidated financial statements herein contain the operations of the wholly-owned subsidiaries listed above. All significant inter-company transactions have been eliminated in the preparation of these financial statements. The parent company, PNTV and subsidiaries, GLFH and GLML will be collectively referred to herein as the “Company”, “Players Network” or “PNTV”. The Company's headquarters are located in Las Vegas, Nevada and substantially all of its customers are within the United States.

 

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue from its internet television platform from internally generated products and from partnered merchants when the following criteria are met: persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; delivery has occurred; the selling price is fixed or determinable; and collectability is reasonably assured. These criteria are met when the customers purchase a product or access a web-based video, the product or web-based video has been electronically delivered to the purchaser and payment has been received. At that time, the Company's obligations to the customer is substantially complete. The Company records the net amount it retains from the sale of items from its internet television platform after paying any agreed upon percentage of the purchase price to the featured advertising merchant excluding any applicable taxes. Revenue is recorded on a net basis because the Company is acting as an agent of the partnered merchant in the transaction. Provisions for discounts and rebates to customers, estimated returns and allowances, and other adjustments are provided for in the same period the related sales are recorded. The Company defers any revenue for which the product has not been delivered or is subject to refund until such time that the Company and the customer jointly determine that the product has been delivered or no refund will be required.

 

Network revenue consists of monthly network broadcast subscription revenue, which is recognized over the period in which the subscription service is available. Broadcast television advertising revenue is recognized when advertisements are aired. Video production revenue is recognized as digital video film is completed and accepted by the customer and collection is reasonably assured.

 

34
 

 

Revenue from the distribution of domestic television series is recognized as earned using the following criteria:

 

·Persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists;
·The show/episode is complete, and in accordance with the terms of the arrangement, has been delivered or is available for immediate and unconditional delivery;
·The license period has begun and the customer can begin its exploitation, exhibition or sale;
·The price to the customer is fixed and determinable; and
·Collectability is reasonably assured.

 

Due to practical limitations applicable to operating relationships with On-Demand networks, the Company has not considered collectability of advertising or television license revenues to be reasonably assured, and accordingly, the Company has not recognize such revenue unless payment has been received.

 

Audio/Video content licensing revenues were recognized when the underlying royalties from the sales of the related products were earned. The Company recognized minimum revenue guarantees, if any, ratably over the term of the license or as earned royalties based on actual sales of the related products, if greater.

 

Derivative Liability

The Company evaluates its convertible instruments, options, warrants or other contracts to determine if those contracts or embedded components of those contracts qualify as derivatives to be separately accounted for under ASC Topic 815, “Derivatives and Hedging.” The result of this accounting treatment is that the fair value of the derivative is marked-to-market each balance sheet date and recorded as a liability. In the event that the fair value is recorded as a liability, the change in fair value is recorded in the statement of operations as other income (expense). Upon conversion or exercise of a derivative instrument, the instrument is marked to fair value at the conversion date and then that fair value is reclassified to equity. Equity instruments that are initially classified as equity that become subject to reclassification under ASC Topic 815 are reclassified to liabilities at the fair value of the instrument on the reclassification date. We analyzed the derivative financial instruments (the Convertible Note and tainted Warrant), in accordance with ASC 815. The objective is to provide guidance for determining whether an equity-linked financial instrument is indexed to an entity’s own stock. This determination is needed for a scope exception which would enable a derivative instrument to be accounted for under the accrual method. The classification of a non-derivative instrument that falls within the scope of ASC 815-40-05 “Accounting for Derivative Financial Instruments Indexed to, and Potentially Settled in, a Company’s Own Stock” also hinges on whether the instrument is indexed to an entity’s own stock. A non-derivative instrument that is not indexed to an entity’s own stock cannot be classified as equity and must be accounted for as a liability. There is a two-step approach in determining whether an instrument or embedded feature is indexed to an entity’s own stock. First, the instrument's contingent exercise provisions, if any, must be evaluated, followed by an evaluation of the instrument's settlement provisions. The Company utilized multinomial lattice models that value the derivative liability within the notes based on a probability weighted discounted cash flow model. The Company utilized the fair value standard set forth by the Financial Accounting Standards Board, defined as the amount at which the assets (or liability) could be bought (or incurred) or sold (or settled) in a current transaction between willing parties, that is, other than in a forced or liquidation sale.

Not applicable.

 

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We carried out an evaluation as of March 31, 2015, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, who are one and the same, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a–15(f) and 15d–15(e)). Based upon that evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that, as of the end of the period covered in this report, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the required time periods and is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

 

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during our most recent quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION

 

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

 

In the ordinary course of business, we may become subject to lawsuits and other claims and proceedings that might arise from litigation matters or regulatory audits. Such matters are subject to uncertainty and outcomes are often not predictable with assurance. Our management does not presently expect that such matters will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition or results of operations. We are not currently involved in any pending or threatened material litigation or other material legal proceedings, nor have we been made aware of any penalties from regulatory audits, except as we have previously disclosed, or may in the future disclose.

On March 11, 2015, the Company received net proceeds of $70,000 in exchange for a 12% interest bearing, unsecured convertible promissory note dated March 2, 2015 with a face value of $75,000 (“First JSJ Note”), which matures on September 2, 2015. The principal and interest is convertible into shares of common stock at the discretion of the note holder at a price equal to the lesser of: (i) 58% of the average of the two (2) lowest closing prices over the 10 days prior to conversion; or (ii) 58% of the average of the two (2) lowest closing prices over the 10 days prior to the execution of the note (which was $0.008932). The note includes prepayment cash redemption penalties between 25% and 40% of outstanding principal and interest, and the debt holder is limited to owning 4.99% of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares. The Company must at all times reserve at least 30 million shares of common stock for potential conversions.

 

On February 5, 2015, the Company received net proceeds of $50,000 with a face value of $53,750 that carries an 8% interest rate (“Second Tangiers Note”), which matures on February 5, 2016.

The principal and interest is convertible into shares of common stock at the discretion of the note holder at a price equal to sixty percent (60%) of the average of the two lowest trading prices of the Company’s common stock for the fifteen (15) trading days prior to, and including, the conversion date.

i.If the market capitalization of the Borrower is less than Three Hundred Thousand Dollars ($300,000) on the day immediately prior to the date of the Notice of Conversion, then the Conversion Price shall be twenty-five percent (25%) multiplied by the Lowest Closing Price as of the date a Notice of Conversion is given (which represents a discount rate of seventy-five percent (75%)); and

ARTICLE III
CONVERSION REPAYMENT

 

3.1. Optional Conversion. Subject to the terms of this Article III, Holder shall have the right, but not the obligation, at any time after the Issuance Date and until the Maturity Date, or thereafter during an Event of Default, to convert all or any portion of the outstanding Principal Amount, accrued interest and fees due and payable thereon into fully paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock of Borrower at the Conversion Price, as defined below (the “Conversion Shares”).

 

3.2. Calculation of Conversion Price. Subject to Section 4.6 hereof, the conversion price (the “Conversion Price”) shall mean the lesser of (a) fifty-eight percent (58%) multiplied by the Lowest Closing Price as of the date a Notice of Conversion is given (which represents a discount rate of forty-two percent (42%)) or (b) five cents ($0.05).

 

3.2.1 Conversion Price Adjustments. Conversion Price shall be subject to the following adjustments:

i.If the market capitalization of the Borrower is less than Three Hundred Thousand Dollars ($300,000) on the day immediately prior to the date of the Notice of Conversion, then the Conversion Price shall be twenty-five percent (25%) multiplied by the Lowest Closing Price as of the date a Notice of Conversion is given (which represents a discount rate of seventy-five percent (75%)); and
ii.If the closing price of the Borrower’s Common Stock on the day immediately prior to the date of the Notice of Conversion is less than .001 then the Conversion Price shall be twenty-five percent (25%) multiplied by the Lowest Closing Price as of the date a Notice of Conversion is given (which represents a discount rate of seventy-five percent (75%)).

 

3.3. Conversion Limitation. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the number of Conversion Shares that may be acquired by Holder upon conversion of this Debenture (or otherwise in respect hereof) shall be limited to the extent necessary to ensure that, following such conversion (or other issuance), the total number of shares of Common Stock then beneficially owned by Holder and its affiliates and any other Persons whose beneficial ownership of Common Stock would be aggregated with that of Holder for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act does not exceed 4.99% of the total number of issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock, including, for such purpose, the shares of Common Stock issuable upon such conversion, but excluding the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon (a) conversion of the remaining, unconverted Principal Amount of this Debenture beneficially owned by Holder or any of its affiliates and (b) exercise or conversion of the unexercised or unconverted portion of any other securities of Borrower subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise analogous to the limitation contained herein (including, without limitation, any other debenture or warrant) beneficially owned by Holder or any of its affiliates. For such purposes, beneficial ownership shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder.  By written notice to Borrower, Holder may increase, decrease or waive the provisions of this Section 3.3 as to itself but any such waiver will not be effective until the sixty-first (61st) day after delivery thereof.

 

4
 

 

 

3.4. Mechanics of Holder’s Conversion. Subject to Section 3.3 hereof, this Debenture may be converted by Holder, in whole or in part from time to time after the Issuance Date, by submitting to Borrower and/or the transfer agent of record a notice of conversion (“Notice of Conversion”), the form of which is attached hereto as Exhibit A. Such Notice of Conversion shall specify the Principal Amount of the Debenture to be converted and the date on which such conversion shall be effected (the “Conversion Date”). Pursuant to the terms of the Notice of Conversion, Borrower shall issue instructions to the transfer agent within two (2) Trading Days from the receipt of the Notice of Conversion and shall cause the transfer agent to transmit the certificates representing the Conversion Shares to Holder by physical delivery or crediting the account of Holder’s designated broker with the Depository Trust Corporation (“DTC”) through its Deposit Withdrawal Agent Commission (“DWAC”) system within two (2) Trading Days after receipt by Borrower of the Notice of Conversion (the “Delivery Date”). In the case of the exercise of the conversion rights set forth herein, the conversion privilege shall be deemed to have been exercised, and the Conversion Shares issuable upon such conversion shall be deemed to have been issued, upon the Delivery Date and Holder shall be treated for all purposes as the record holder of such Common Stock, unless Holder provides Borrower with written instructions to the contrary. Conversions hereunder shall have the effect of lowering the outstanding Principal Amount of this Debenture in an amount equal to the applicable conversion. Holder and Borrower shall maintain records showing the Principal Amount(s) converted and the Conversion Date(s). In the event of any dispute or discrepancy, the records of Holder shall be controlling and determinative in the absence of manifest error.

 

3.5. Conversion Mechanics. The number of shares of Common Stock to be issued upon each conversion of this Debenture shall be determined by dividing that portion of the Principal Amount and interest and fees to be converted, if any, by the then applicable Conversion Price.

 

3.6 Fractional Shares. No fractional shares shall be issued upon the conversion of this Debenture. As to any fraction of a share which Holder would otherwise be entitled to upon such conversion, Borrower shall round up to the next whole share.

 

3.7 Late Delivery of Conversion Shares. Borrower understands that a delay in the delivery of Conversion Shares in the form required pursuant to this Article III beyond the Delivery Date could result in economic loss to Holder. As compensation to Holder for such loss, Borrower agrees to pay late fees to Holder for late issuance of such shares in the form required pursuant to this Article III upon conversion of the Debenture, in the amount equal to one thousand dollars ($1,000) per Business Day after the Delivery Date. Borrower shall pay any fees incurred under this Section in immediately available funds upon demand and such fees shall also be eligible to be converted into Common Stock pursuant to this Article III.

 

3.8 Authorized and Reserved Shares. Borrower represents and warrants and covenants and agrees that upon issuance, the Conversion Shares will be duly and validly issued, fully issued and non-assessable. Borrower agrees that its issuance of this Debenture shall constitute full authority to its officers and agents who are charged with the duty of executing stock certificates to execute and issue the necessary certificates for Conversion Shares in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Debenture. At all times during which this Debenture is outstanding, Borrower shall reserve and keep available from its authorized and unissued shares of Common Stock (the “Share Reserve”) for the sole purpose of issuance upon conversion of this Debenture and payment of interest on this Debenture, each as herein provided, free from preemptive rights or any other actual or contingent purchase rights of Persons other than Holder, not less than such aggregate number of shares of the Common Stock that shall be issuable (taking account the adjustments of Article IV) upon the conversion of the outstanding Principal Amount of this Debenture and payment of interest hereunder. Initially, the Share Reserve shall be equal to 20,000,000 and shall be adjusted by the transfer agent from time to time. Borrower agrees that it will take all such reasonable actions as may be necessary to assure that the Conversion Shares may be issued as provided herein without violation of any applicable law or regulation, or of any requirements of the applicable Trading Market upon which the Common Stock may be listed. Borrower agrees to provide Holder with confirmation evidencing the execution of such share reservation within three (3) Business Days from the Issuance Date.

 

5
 

 

 

3.9 Issuance of New Debenture. Upon any partial conversion of this Debenture, a new Debenture containing the same date and provisions of this Debenture shall, at the request of Holder, be issued by Borrower to Holder for the principal balance of this Debenture and accrued interest which shall not have been converted or paid. Subject to the provisions of Article VI, Borrower will pay no costs, fees or any other consideration to Holder for the production and issuance of a new Debenture.

 

3.10 Par Value; Further Assurances.

 

(a) Borrower covenants that during the period that the Principal Amount of this Debenture and any accrued interest and fees thereon remain outstanding, it will ensure that the par value of any Conversion Shares shall not exceed the amount payable therefor upon such exercise immediately prior to such exercise. Borrower further covenants that it shall take all appropriate actions, including, without limitation, amending its articles or certificate of incorporation and any other voluntary action, such as calling a meeting of stockholders to approve any such amendment, to ensure that the amount payable for any Conversion Shares shall at all times exceed the par value thereof by at least four hundred percent (400%).

 

(b) Except and to the extent as waived or consented to by Holder, Borrower shall not by any action, including, without limitation, amending its articles or certificate of incorporation or through any reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, dissolution, issue or sale of securities or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms of this Debenture, but will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all such terms and in the taking of all such actions as may be necessary or appropriate to protect the rights of Holder as set forth in this Debenture against impairment. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Borrower will (a) not increase the par value of any Conversion Shares above the amount payable therefor upon such exercise immediately prior to such exercise, (b) take all such action as may be necessary or appropriate in order that Borrower may validly and legally issue fully paid and nonassessable Conversion Shares upon the exercise of this Debenture and (c) use its commercially best efforts to obtain all such authorizations, exemptions or consents from any public regulatory body having jurisdiction thereof as may be necessary to enable Borrower to perform its obligations under this Debenture.

 

3.11 Transfer Taxes. The issuance of certificates for Conversion Shares shall be made without charge to Holder for any documentary stamp or similar taxes that may be payable in respect of the issue or delivery of such certificates, provided that Borrower shall not be required to pay any tax that may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issuance and delivery of any such certificate upon conversion in a name other than that of Holder and Borrower shall not be required to issue or deliver such certificates unless or until the Person or Persons requesting the issuance thereof shall have paid to Borrower the amount of such tax or shall have established to the satisfaction of Borrower that such tax has been paid.

 

3.12 Rule 144 Issuer’s Representation Letter. In the event that Holder’s brokers dealer requires a Rule 144 Issuer’s Representation Letter (the “144 Letter”), Holder will submit to Borrower the 144 Letter along with a corresponding Notice of Conversion upon which Borrower will have forty-eight (48) hours to execute and return the 144 Letter.

ARTICLE IV
CERTAIN ADJUSTMENTS

 

4.1 Stock Dividends and Stock Splits. If Borrower, at any time while this Debenture is outstanding: (a) pays a stock dividend or otherwise makes a distribution or distributions payable in shares of Common Stock on shares of Common Stock or any Common Stock equivalents (which, for avoidance of doubt, shall not include any shares of Common Stock issued by Borrower upon conversion of, or payment of interest on, this Debenture); (b) subdivides outstanding shares of Common Stock into a larger number of shares; or (c) issues, in the event of a reclassification of shares of the Common Stock, any shares of capital stock of Borrower, then the Conversion Price shall be multiplied by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock (excluding any treasury shares of Borrower) outstanding immediately before such event and of which the denominator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event. Any adjustment made pursuant to this Section shall become effective immediately after the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such dividend or distribution and shall become effective immediately after the effective date in the case of a subdivision, combination or re-classification.

 

4.2 Subsequent Rights Offerings. If Borrower, at any time within six (6) months of the Issuance Date, shall issue rights, options or warrants to all holders of Common Stock (and not to Holder) entitling them to subscribe for or purchase shares of Common Stock at a price per share that is lower than the Lowest Closing Price on the record date referenced below, then the Conversion Price shall be multiplied by a fraction of which the denominator shall be the number of shares of the Common Stock outstanding on the date of issuance of such rights or warrants plus the number of additional shares of Common Stock offered for subscription or purchase, and of which the numerator shall be the number of shares of the Common Stock outstanding on the date of issuance of such rights or warrants plus the number of shares which the aggregate offering price of the total number of shares issued (assuming delivery to Borrower in full of all consideration payable upon exercise of such rights, options or warrants) would purchase at such Lowest Closing Price. Such adjustment shall be made whenever such rights or warrants are issued, other than to officers and directors under equity incentive plans approved by the board of directors, and shall become effective immediately after the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such rights, options or warrants.

 

4.3 Pro Rata Distributions. If Borrower, at any time while this Debenture is outstanding, distributes to all holders of Common Stock (and not to Holder) evidences of its indebtedness or assets (including cash and cash dividends) or rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any security (other than the Common Stock, which shall be subject to Section 4.1), then in each such case the Conversion Price shall be adjusted by multiplying such Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the record date fixed for determination of stockholders entitled to receive such distribution by a fraction of which the denominator shall be the Lowest Closing Price determined as of the record date mentioned above, and of which the numerator shall be such Lowest Closing Price on such record date less the then fair market value at such record date of the portion of such assets or evidence of indebtedness so distributed applicable to one (1) outstanding share of the Common Stock as determined by the board of directors of Borrower in good faith. In either case the adjustments shall be described in a statement delivered to Holder describing the portion of assets or evidences of indebtedness so distributed or such subscription rights applicable to one (1) share of Common Stock. Such adjustment shall be made whenever any such distribution is made and shall become effective immediately after the record date mentioned above.

 

7
 

 

4.4 Fundamental Transaction. If, at any time while this Debenture is outstanding, (a) Borrower effects any merger or consolidation of Borrower with or into another Person, (b) Borrower effects any sale of all or substantially all of its assets in one transaction or a series of related transactions, (c) any tender offer or exchange offer (whether by Borrower or another Person) is completed pursuant to which holders of Common Stock are permitted to tender or exchange their shares for other securities, cash or property, or (d) Borrower effects any reclassification of the Common Stock or any compulsory share exchange pursuant to which the Common Stock is effectively converted into or exchanged for other securities, cash or property (in any such case, a “Fundamental Transaction”), then, upon any subsequent conversion of this Debenture, Holder shall have the right to receive, for each Conversion Share that would have been issuable upon such conversion immediately prior to the occurrence of such Fundamental Transaction, the same kind and amount of securities, cash or property as it would have been entitled to receive upon the occurrence of such Fundamental Transaction if it had been, immediately prior to such Fundamental Transaction, holder of one (1) share of Common Stock (the “Alternate Consideration”). For purposes of any such conversion, the determination of the Conversion Price shall be appropriately adjusted to apply to such Alternate Consideration based on the amount of Alternate Consideration issuable in respect of one (1) share of Common Stock in such Fundamental Transaction, and Borrower shall apportion the Conversion Price among the Alternate Consideration in a reasonable manner reflecting the relative value of any different components of the Alternate Consideration. If holders of Common Stock are given any choice as to the securities, cash or property to be received in a Fundamental Transaction, then Holder shall be given the same choice as to the Alternate Consideration it receives upon any conversion of this Debenture following such Fundamental Transaction. To the extent necessary to effectuate the foregoing provisions, any successor to Borrower or surviving entity in such Fundamental Transaction shall issue to Holder a new Debenture consistent with the foregoing provisions and evidencing Holder’s right to convert such Debenture into Alternate Consideration. The terms of any agreement pursuant to which a Fundamental Transaction is effected shall include terms requiring any such successor or surviving entity to comply with the provisions of this Section 4.4 and insuring that this Debenture (or any such replacement security) will be similarly adjusted upon any subsequent transaction analogous to a Fundamental Transaction.

 

4.5 Calculations. All calculations under this Article III shall be made to four decimal places or the nearest 1/100th of a share, as the case may be. For purposes of this Article III, the number of shares of Common Stock deemed to be issued and outstanding as of a given date shall be the sum of the number of shares of Common Stock (excluding any treasury shares of Borrower) issued and outstanding.

 

4.6 Notice to Holder.

 

a) Adjustment to Conversion Price. Whenever the Conversion Price is adjusted pursuant to any provision of this Article IV, Borrower shall promptly deliver to each Holder a notice setting forth the Conversion Price after such adjustment and setting forth a brief statement of the facts requiring such adjustment.

b) Notice to Allow Conversion by Holder. If (i) Borrower shall declare a dividend (or any other distribution in whatever form) on the Common Stock, (ii) Borrower shall declare a special nonrecurring cash dividend on or a redemption of the Common Stock, (iii) Borrower shall authorize the granting to all holders of the Common Stock of rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any shares of capital stock of any class or of any rights, (iv) the approval of any stockholders of Borrower shall be required in connection with any reclassification of the Common Stock, any consolidation or merger to which Borrower is a party, any sale or transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of Borrower, of any compulsory share exchange whereby the Common Stock is converted into other securities, cash or property or (v) Borrower shall authorize the voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the affairs of Borrower, then, in each case, Borrower shall cause to be filed at each office or agency maintained for the purpose of conversion of this Debenture, and shall cause to be delivered to Holder at its last address as it shall appear upon Borrower’s books and records, at least 20 calendar days prior to the applicable record or effective date hereinafter specified, a notice stating (A) the date on which a record is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend, distribution, redemption, rights or warrants, or if a record is not to be taken, the date as of which the holders of the Common Stock of record to be entitled to such dividend, distributions, redemption, rights or warrants are to be determined or (B) the date on which such reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or share exchange is expected to become effective or close, and the date as of which it is expected that holders of the Common Stock of record shall be entitled to exchange their shares of the Common Stock for securities, cash or other property deliverable upon such reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or share exchange, provided that the failure to deliver such notice or any defect therein or in the delivery thereof shall not affect the validity of the corporate action required to be specified in such notice. Holder is entitled to convert this Debenture during the 20-day period commencing on the date of such notice through the effective date of the event triggering such notice.

 

4.7 Most Favored Nations Status. So long as this Debenture is outstanding, upon any issuance by Borrower or any of its subsidiaries of any security (in an amount under one million dollars ($1,000,000)) with any term more favorable to the holder of such security or with a term in favor of the holder of such security that was not similarly provided to Holder in this Debenture, then Borrower shall notify Holder of such additional or more favorable term and such term, at Holder’s option, shall become a part of the transaction documents with Holder. Such more favorable terms include, but are not limited to, terms addressing conversion discounts, conversion look-back periods, interest rates, original issue discounts, stock sale price, private placement price per share and warrant coverage. 

 

4.8 Holder’s Adjustments. Upon the occurrence of either of the following events, Holder may, within three (3) Business Days of such occurrence, provide the transfer agent with written instructions to increase the Share Reserve in accordance therewith: (a) closing price of Borrower’s Common Stock is less than .001 for three (3) consecutive Trading Days then the reserve shall be increased to 50,000,000 shares; (b) closing price of Borrower’s Common Stock is less than .0005 for three (3) consecutive Trading Days then the reserve shall be increased to 150,000,000 shares

ARTICLE VII  

DEFAULT RELATED PROVISIONS AND OTHER PRIVILEGES

 

7.1 Default Interest Rate. If any Event of Default occurs, the outstanding Principal Amount of this Debenture, plus accrued but unpaid interest, liquidated damages and other amounts owing in respect thereof through the date of acceleration, shall become, at Holder’s election, immediately due and payable in cash in the sum of (a) one hundred eighteen percent (118%) of the outstanding Principal Amount of this Debenture plus one hundred percent (100%) of accrued and unpaid interest thereon and (b) all other amounts, costs, expenses and liquidated damages due in respect of this Debenture (“Mandatory Default Amount”). After the occurrence of any Event of Default, the interest rate on this Debenture shall accrue at an interest rate equal to the lesser of eighteen percent (18%) per annum or the maximum rate permitted under applicable law. Upon the payment in full of the Mandatory Default Amount, Holder shall promptly surrender this Debenture to or as directed by Borrower. In connection with such acceleration described herein, Holder need not provide, and Borrower hereby waives, any presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind, and Holder may immediately and without expiration of any grace period enforce any and all of its rights and remedies hereunder and all other remedies available to it under applicable law. Such acceleration may be rescinded and annulled by Holder at any time prior to payment hereunder and Holder shall have all rights as a holder of his Debenture until such time, if any, as Holder receives full payment pursuant to this Section 7.1. No such rescission or annulment shall affect any subsequent Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereon.

 

7.2 Default Penalty Payment. Following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Borrower agrees to pay to Holder in the amount equal to one thousand dollars ($1,000) per Business Day commencing the Business Day following the date of the Event of Default. Borrower shall pay any fees incurred under this Section in immediately available funds upon demand and such fees shall also be eligible to be converted into Conversion Shares as set forth in Article III. Such conversion privileges shall remain in full force and effect immediately from the date hereof and until this Debenture is paid in full.

 

ARTICLE VIII  

MISCELLANEOUS

 

8.1 Piggyback Registration Rights. Borrower shall include on the next registration statement Borrower files with the SEC (or on the subsequent registration statement if such registration statement is withdrawn) all shares issuable upon conversion of this Debenture. Failure to do so will result in liquidated damages of twenty-five percent (25%) of the outstanding Principal Amount of this Debenture, but not less than twenty-five thousand dollars ($25,000), being immediately due and payable to Holder at its election in the form of cash payment or addition to the balance of this Debenture. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event a registration statement is filed with respect to an underwritten offering or a selling stockholder registration statement relating solely to holders of Borrower’s Common Stock who paid cash for such Common Stock in a sale placed by an independent placement agent, the number of shares of Common Stock owned by Holder to be included in any such registration statement may be limited if in the opinion of the underwriter or placement agent, the sale of such shares by Holder would adversely impact the sale of shares by the underwriter or selling stockholders included therein.

 

12
 

 

8.2 Failure or Indulgence Not Waiver.

All rights and remedies existing hereunder are cumulative to, and not exclusive of, any rights or remedies otherwise available.

12% CONVERTIBLE NOTE

 

Maturity Date of September 2, 2015 *the “Maturity Date”

 

$75,000 March 2, 2015 *the “Issuance Date”

 

FOR VALUE RECEIVED, The Players Network, a Nevada Corporation (the “Company”) doing business in Las Vegas, NV hereby promises to pay to the order of JSJ Investments Inc., an accredited investor and Texas Corporation, or its assigns (the “Holder”) the principal amount of Seventy-Five Thousand Dollars ($75,000), on demand of the Holder at any time on or after September 2, 2015 (the “Maturity Date”), and to pay interest on the unpaid principal balance hereof at the rate of Twelve Percent (12%) per annum (the “Interest Rate”) from the date hereof (the “Issuance Date”) until the same becomes due and payable, whether at maturity or upon acceleration or by prepayment or otherwise; provided, that any amount of principal or interest on this Note which is not paid when due shall bear interest at such rate on the unpaid principal balance hereof plus Default Interest from the due date thereof until the same is paid in full. Interest shall commence accruing on the Issuance Date, shall be computed on the basis of a 365-day year and the actual number of days elapsed and shall accrue daily and, after the Maturity Date, compound annually.

 

1.Payments of Principal and Interest.

 

a.Payment of Principal. Until the Ninetieth (90th) day after the Issuance Date the Company may pay the principal at a cash redemption premium of 125%, in addition to outstanding interest, without the Holder’s consent; from the 90th day to the One Hundred and Twentieth (120th) day after the Issuance Date, the Company may pay the principal at a cash redemption premium of 140%, in addition to outstanding interest, without the Holder’s consent. After the 120th day, up to and upon the Maturity Date, this note has a cash redemption premium of 140% of the principal amount, in addition to outstanding interest, but this provision may only be exercised if the consent of the Holder is obtained. After the Maturity Date the Company may pay the Note’s outstanding principal at a cash redemption premium of 140%, in addition to outstanding interest, but this provision may only be exercised if the consent of the Holder is obtained. The principal and interest balance of this Note shall be paid to the Holder hereof on demand.

 

b.Demand of Repayment. The principal and interest balance of this Note shall be paid to the Holder hereof on demand by the Holder at any time before or after the Maturity Date.

 

c.Default Interest. Any amount of principal on this Note which is not paid when due shall bear Twelve Percent (12%) interest per annum from the date thereof until the same is paid (“Default Interest”) and the Holder, at the Holder’s sole discretion, may include any accrued but unpaid Default Interest in the Conversion Amount.

 

d.General Payment Provisions. This Note shall be made in lawful money of the United States of America by check to such account as the Holder may from time to time designate by written notice to the Company in accordance with the provisions of this Note. Whenever any amount expressed to be due by the terms of this Note is due on any day which is not a Business Day (as defined below), the same shall instead be due on the next succeeding day which is a Business Day and, in the case of any interest payment date which is not the date on which this Note is paid in full, the extension of the due date thereof shall not be taken into account for purposes of determining the amount of interest due on such date. For purposes of this Note, “Business Day” shall mean any day other than a Saturday, Sunday or a day on which commercial banks in the State of Texas are authorized or required by law or executive order to remain closed.

c.Fractional Shares. The Company shall not issue any fraction of a share of Common Stock upon any conversion; if such issuance would result in the issuance of a fraction of a share of Common Stock, the Company shall round such fraction of a share of Common Stock up to the nearest whole share.

 

d.Conversion Amount. The Conversion Amount shall be converted pursuant to Rule 144(b)(1)(ii) and Rule 144(d)(1)(ii) as promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, into free trading shares at the Conversion Price.

3.Other Rights of Holders: Reorganization, Reclassification, Consolidation, Merger or Sale. Any recapitalization, reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets to another Person or other transaction which is effected in such a way that holders of Common Stock are entitled to receive (either directly or upon subsequent liquidation) stock, securities or assets with respect to or in exchange for Common Stock is referred to herein as “Organic Change.” Prior to the consummation of any (i) Organic Change or (ii) other Organic Change following which the Company is not a surviving entity, the Company will secure from the Person purchasing such assets or the successor resulting from such Organic Change (in each case, the “Acquiring Entity”) a written agreement (in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Holder) to deliver to Holder in exchange for this Note, a security of the Acquiring Entity evidenced by a written instrument substantially similar in form and substance to this Note, and reasonably satisfactory to the Holder. Prior to the consummation of any other Organic Change, the Company shall make appropriate provision (in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Holders of a majority of the Conversion Amount of the Notes then outstanding) to ensure that each of the Holders will thereafter have the right to acquire and receive in lieu of or in addition to (as the case may be) the shares of Common Stock immediately theretofore acquirable and receivable upon the conversion of such Holder’s Note, such shares of stock, securities or assets that would have been issued or payable in such Organic Change with respect to or in exchange for the number of shares of Common Stock which would have been acquirable and receivable upon the conversion of such Holder’s Note as of the date of such Organic Change (without taking into account any limitations or restrictions on the convertibility of the Note). All provisions of this Note must be included to the satisfaction of Holder in any new Note created pursuant to this section.

 

4.Representations and Warranties of the Company. In connection with the transactions provided for herein, the Company hereby represents and warrants to the Holders the following.

 

a.Organization, Good Standing and Qualification. The Company is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the state of its incorporation and has all requisite corporate power and authority to carry on its business as now conducted. The Company is duly qualified to transact business and is in good standing in each jurisdiction in which the failure to so qualify would have a material adverse effect on its business or properties.

 

b.Authorization. All corporate action has been taken on the part of the Company, its officers, directors and stockholders necessary for the authorization, execution and delivery of this Agreement. The Company has taken all corporate action required to make all of the obligations of the Company reflected in the provisions of this Agreement, valid and enforceable obligations. The shares of capital stock issuable upon conversion of the Notes have been authorized or will be authorized prior to the issuance of such shares.

5.Reservation of Shares. The Company shall at all times, so long as any principal amount of the Note is outstanding, reserve and keep available out of its authorized and unissued Common Stock, solely for the purpose of effecting the conversion of the Note, such number of shares of Common Stock as shall at all times be sufficient to effect the conversion of all of the principal amount of the Note then outstanding. The initial number of shares of Common Stock reserved for conversions of the Notes shall be calculated as three times the number of shares necessary to convert the entire value of the Note on the day it was executed, and each increase in the number of shares so reserved shall be allocated pro rata among the Holders of the Note based on the principal and interest amount of the Notes held by each Holder at the time of issuance of the Notes or increase in the number of reserved shares, as the case may be. In the event a Holder shall sell or otherwise transfer any of such Holder’s Note, each transferee shall be allocated a pro rata portion of the number of reserved shares of Common Stock reserved for such transferor. Any shares of Common Stock reserved and allocated to any Person which ceases to hold any Note shall be allocated to the remaining Holders, pro rata based on the principal amount of the Note then held by such Holders.

 

6.Voting Rights. Holders of this Note shall have no voting rights, except as required by law.
