1. BUSINESS
We were founded as an unincorporated DBA in February
1997 and were incorporated as a C corporation under the laws of the State of Nevada on October 11, 2010. On January 10, 2012,
the Company incorporated a wholly-owned subsidiary, TO Sports Innovation, Inc. (“TO”), in Nevada. TO was inactive
until March 15, 2012. Its name was changed to Dethrone Beverage, Inc. (“DB”).
On January 10, 2012, the Company incorporated a wholly-owned
subsidiary, TO Sports Innovation, Inc. (“TO”), in Nevada. TO was inactive until March 15, 2012. Its name was changed
to Dethrone Beverage, Inc. (“DB”).
In October 2013, the Dethrone License Agreement was terminated and the Company entered into a license agreement
with Throwdown Industries Holdings, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Throwdown Licensor”), pursuant to
which the Licensor granted an exclusive, non-sublicenseable and non-assignable right to the Company to use its trademarks and
other intellectual properties (“Throwdown Trademarks”) solely in connection with the development, manufacture, distribution,
marketing and sale of sports performance drinks within the United States and Canada (the “Throwdown License”) as well
as a one-time right of first refusal to license other types of beverages.
Effective November 14, 2013, the Company changed its
name to High Performance Beverages Company in order to better reflect the direction and business of the Company.
On
July 23, 2014, the Company filed a Certificate of Amendment with the Secretary of State of the State of Nevada to increase the
number of authorized shares of common stock from 500,000,000 to 2,500,000,000 shares, effective immediately.
On
August 27, 2015, the Company filed a Certificate of Amendment with the Secretary of State of the State of Nevada to increase the
number of authorized shares of common stock from 2,500,000,000 to 5,000,000,000 shares, effective immediately.
Throwdown
License
On
October 10, 2013, the Company, entered into a license agreement (“Throwdown License Agreement”) with Throwdown Industries
Holdings, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Throwdown Licensor”), pursuant to which the Licensor granted
an exclusive, non-sublicenseable and non-assignable right to the Company to use its trademarks and other intellectual properties
(“Throwdown Trademarks”) solely in connection with the development, manufacture, distribution, marketing and sale
of sports performance drinks within the United States and Canada (the “Throwdown License”) as well as a one-time right
of first refusal to license other types of beverages. The Company’s rights under the Throwdown License Agreement are contingent
upon Licensor’s prior written approval of any sports performance drinks developed or proposed by the Company to contain
any of the Trademarks (“Throwdown Licensed Products”).
In
consideration for the Throwdown License, the Company shall pay ten percent (10%) of the net revenue generated by all sales and
other transfers of the Licensed Products during the term of the Throwdown License Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the
Company shall pay the minimum royalties as set forth below:

**
2016 minimum net revenue shall be the greater of 110% of the actual 2015 net revenue or $2,500,000. During
any extension term and beyond 2016, the annual minimum net revenue shall be at least 105% greater than the previous year.
In
addition to the cash payment, the Company will also issue 5,437,603 shares of its common stock to the Throwdown Licensor. During
each quarter of the term of the Agreement, the Throwdown Licensor shall have the option to convert a portion or all of the greater
of the minimum quarterly payments or the actual earned royalties into shares of stock of the Company at an exercise price equal
to the lesser of $0.03 per share or the VWAP for the ten (10) trading days prior to the end of the respective quarter during the
term.
During the term of the Throwdown License Agreement,
the Throwdown Licensor will not grant any license that will enable any third party to directly compete with the Company by selling
other sports performance drinks within the United States and Canada. The Throwdown License Agreement has an initial term of three
(3) years and is automatically extended for one (1) additional three (3) year period unless either party elects not to extend
the term.
In
the event the Throwdown Licensor creates an independent and formal relationship with one of the Company’s athlete endorsers,
the Throwdown Licensor agrees to pay the Company twenty five percent (25%) of any compensation paid to the athlete endorser for
athlete endorser participation.
Either
party may terminate the Throwdown License Agreement upon thirty (30) days written notice if the other party is in material breach
of the Throwdown License Agreement and fails to cure or take reasonable steps to cure the breach within the given time period
in accordance with the Throwdown License Agreement. In addition, the Licensor has the right to terminate the Throwdown License
Agreement immediately upon occurrence of certain events pursuant to the Throwdown License Agreement.
In
connection with the Throwdown License Agreement, the Company entered into a series of lock-up agreements (“Lock-up Agreement”)
with certain shareholders pursuant to which the shareholders agree that they shall not transfer or dispose of any securities of
the Company beneficially owned by them without prior written consent of Throwdown while the Throwdown License Agreement and the
Lock-up Agreement are in effect.
The Throwdown License Agreement was
terminated in December 2014.
Current
Status
The Company retained Allen Flavors to create two new
additional flavors which were launched in the early part of the first calendar quarter of 2015. The Company also implemented a
newly developed look for their bottling and labeling as part of the new launch. In addition to a new product launch, the Company
launched its first sweepstakes contest to be held from December 15, 2014 through January 31, 2015 to help market the new product
launch. In September 2015, the Company began selling products online through Amazon.com
As discussed above, in October 2013, the Company entered
into the Throwdown License Agreement, pursuant to which the Throwdown Licensor granted the Throwdown Trademarks solely in connection
with the development, manufacture, distribution, marketing and sale of sports performance drinks within the United States and
Canada as well as a one-time right of first refusal to license other types of beverages. The Throwdown License Agreement was terminated
in December 2014.
We entered into contracts with several professional
sports personalities (Jonathan Quick, Aldon Smith, Haloti Nagata, Taj Gibson, Pablo Sandavol, Matt Moulson and Salvador Perez)
to represent us by endorsing our products. All contracts cover three years and require us to issue an aggregate of 3,070,000 restricted
shares of common stock over the lives of the contracts plus up to an additional 2,460,000 contingent shares based on performance
criteria. During the year ended July 31, 2015 and 2014, we have recorded an aggregate marketing expense of $166,095 and $42,237
relating to the shares that are issuable and other marketing activities.
Competition
Most
of our competitors, which include well-known companies and established brands like Gatorade, have significantly greater financial
and marketing resources than do we. We will compete in the marketplace using the name recognition of the athletes who endorse
our beverages and the taste of the beverage
There
are no assurances that our approach will be successful.
Intellectual
Property
We
have no patents or trademarks.
Employees
At
July 31, 2015, our officers, Toby McBride and Michael J. Holley, are part-time contractors to us. There are no written contracts
or agreements with Messrs. McBride and Holley.
Contractors
and vendors will be used by us to conduct the manufacturing and distribution aspects of our business.
Item
1A. RISK FACTORS
Risks
Related to the Business
The
Company has virtually no financial resources. Our independent registered auditors’ report includes an explanatory paragraph
stating that there is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.
The Company has virtually no financial
resources. We have negative working capital of $5,182,021 and a stockholders’ deficit of $10,988,928 at July 31, 2015. The
reports of independent registered public accounting firms include an explanatory paragraph in their opinion on our financial statements
as of and for the fiscal year ended July 31, 2015 and 2014 that states that this lack of resources causes substantial doubt
about our ability to continue as a going concern. No assurances can be given that we will generate sufficient revenue or obtain
necessary financing to continue as a going concern.
The
Company is and will continue to be completely dependent on the services of our senior officers, Toby McBride and Michael Jay Holley,
the loss of whose services may cause our business operations currently contemplated to cease, and we will need to engage and retain
qualified employees and consultants to further implement our strategy.
The
Company’s operations and business strategy are completely dependent upon the knowledge and business connections of Toby
McBride and Michael Jay Holley. They are under no contractual obligation to remain employed by us. If either or both should choose
to leave us for any reason or if either becomes ill and is unable to work for an extended period of time before we have hired
additional personnel, our operations will likely fail. Even if we are able to find additional personnel, it is uncertain whether
we could find someone who could develop our business along the lines described in this prospectus. We will fail without the services
of Messrs. McBride and Holley or an appropriate replacement(s).
We
intend to acquire key-man life insurance on the lives of Messrs. McBride and Holley naming us as the beneficiary when and if we
obtain the resources to do so and if they are insurable. We have not yet procured such insurance, and there is no guarantee that
we will be able to obtain such insurance in the future. Accordingly, it is important that we are able to attract, motivate and
retain highly qualified and talented personnel and independent contractors.
Many
of our likely competitors have significantly greater financial and marketing resources than do we.
Many
of our likely competitors have significantly greater financial and marketing resources than do we. Many of these competitors have
sophisticated management, are in a position to purchase inventory at the lowest prices and have the ability to advertise in a
wide variety of media, including television. There are no assurances that our brand will be successful.
We
are subject to the periodic reporting requirements of the Exchange Act that will require us to incur audit fees and legal fees
in connection with the preparation of such reports. These additional costs could reduce or eliminate our ability to earn a profit.
We
are required to file periodic reports with the SEC pursuant to the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder.
In order to comply with these requirements, our independent registered public accounting firm will have to review our financial
statements on a quarterly basis and audit our financial statements on an annual basis. Moreover, our legal counsel will have to
review and assist in the preparation of such reports. The costs charged by these professionals for such services cannot be accurately
predicted at this time because factors such as the number and type of transactions that we engage in and the complexity of our
reports cannot be determined at this time and will have a major effect on the amount of time to be spent by our auditors and attorneys.
However, the incurrence of such costs will obviously be an expense to our operations and thus have a negative effect on our ability
to meet our overhead requirements and earn a profit. If we cannot provide reliable financial reports or prevent fraud, our business
and operating results could be harmed, investors could lose confidence in our reported financial information, and the trading
price of our common stock, if a market ever develops, could drop significantly.
In
no case will the proceeds of this offering be sufficient to assist us in any way to meet any portion of these incremental costs
of being public.
Toby
McBride and Michael Jay Holley, our principal officers, have no significant experience managing a public company and no meaningful
accounting or financial reporting education or experience and, accordingly, our ability to meet Exchange Act reporting requirements
on a timely basis will be dependent to a significant degree upon others.
Messrs.
McBride and Holley have no significant experience managing a public company and no meaningful financial reporting education or
experience. They are and will be heavily dependent on engaging and dealing with outside professional advisors, primarily lawyers
and financial advisors/accountants who are and will not be affiliated with our independent auditors. We have no formal arrangements
with professionals and cannot provide any assurances that we will be able to establish arrangements with professionals on terms
or costs that are acceptable or affordable to us.
Our
internal controls may be inadequate, which could cause our financial reporting to be unreliable and lead to misinformation being
disseminated to the public.
Our
management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. As defined in Exchange
Act Rule 13a-15(f), internal control over financial reporting is a process designed by, or under the supervision of, the principal
executive and principal financial officer and effected by the board of directors, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable
assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and includes those policies and procedures that:
-
pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions
of the assets of the Company;
-
provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance
with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the Company are being made only in accordance
with authorizations of management and/or directors of the Company; and
-
provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the Company's
assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Our
internal controls may be inadequate or ineffective, which could cause our financial reporting to be unreliable and lead to misinformation
being disseminated to the public. Investors relying upon this misinformation may make an uninformed investment decision.
Having
only two directors limits our ability to establish effective independent corporate governance procedures and increases the control
of our president over operations and business decisions.
We
have only two directors, who are also our principal executive officers. Accordingly, we cannot establish board committees comprised
of independent members to oversee functions like compensation or audit issues. In addition, a tie vote of board members is decided
in favor of the chairman, which gives him significant control over all corporate issues, including all major decisions on operations
and corporate matters such as approving business combinations.
Until
we have a larger board of directors that would include some independent members, if ever, there will be limited oversight of our
president’s decisions and activities and little ability for minority shareholders to challenge or reverse those activities
and decisions, even if they are not in the best interests of minority shareholders.
Risks
Related to Our Common Stock
Shareholders
may be diluted significantly through our efforts to obtain financing and satisfy obligations through issuance of additional shares
of our common stock.
We
have no committed source of financing. Wherever possible, our board of directors will attempt to use non-cash consideration to
satisfy obligations. In many instances, we believe that the non-cash consideration will consist of restricted shares of our common
stock. Our board of directors has authority, without action or vote of the shareholders, to issue all or part of the authorized
but unissued shares. In addition, if a trading market develops for our common stock, we may attempt to raise capital by selling
shares of our common stock, possibly at a discount to market. These actions will result in dilution of the ownership interests
of existing shareholders may further dilute common stock book value, and that dilution may be material.
The
interests of shareholders may be hurt because we can issue shares of our common stock to individuals or entities that support
existing management with such issuances serving to enhance existing management’s ability to maintain control of our Company.
Messrs.
McBride and Holley own a significant majority of outstanding shares. In addition, our board of directors has authority, without
action or vote of the shareholders, to issue all or part of the authorized but unissued common shares. Such issuances may be issued
to parties or entities committed to supporting existing management and the interests of existing management which may not be the
same as the interests of other shareholders. Although transactions, other than those described in this prospectus, are not currently
being contemplated or discussed, our ability to issue shares without shareholder approval serves to enhance existing management’s
ability to maintain control of our Company or participate in other transactions, including entering into possible business combinations,
without the support of other shareholders.
Our
two principal officers control all corporate activities and can approve all transactions, including mergers, without the approval
of other shareholders.
Messrs.
McBride and Holley have a sufficient number of shares to control all corporate activities and can approve transactions, including
possible mergers, issuance of shares and r compensation levels, without the approval of other shareholders. Their decisions may
not be in the best interests of other shareholders.
Our
articles of incorporation provide for indemnification of officers and directors at our expense and limit their liability that
may result in a major cost to us and hurt the interests of our shareholders because corporate resources may be expended for the
benefit of officers and/or directors.
Our
Articles of Incorporation at Article XI provide for indemnification as follows: "No director or officer of the Corporation
shall be personally liable to the Corporation or any of its stockholders for damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director
or officer; provided, however, that the foregoing provision shall not eliminate or limit the liability of a director or officer:
(i) for acts or omissions which involve intentional misconduct, fraud or knowing violation of law; or (ii) the payment of dividends
in violation of Section 78.300 of the Nevada Revised Statutes. Any repeal or modification of an Article by the stockholders of
the Corporation shall be prospective only, and shall not adversely affect any limitation of the personal liability of a director
or officer of the Corporation for acts or omissions prior to such repeal or modification."
We
have been advised that, in the opinion of the SEC, indemnification for liabilities arising under federal securities laws is against
public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification
for liabilities arising under federal securities laws, other than the payment by us of expenses incurred or paid by a director,
officer or controlling person in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding, is asserted by a director, officer
or controlling person in connection with our activities, we will (unless in the opinion of our counsel, the matter has been settled
by controlling precedent) submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction, the question whether indemnification by us is against
public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue. The legal process
relating to this matter if it were to occur is likely to be very costly and may result in us receiving negative publicity, either
of which factors is likely to materially reduce the market and price for our shares, if such a market ever develops.
The
market for shares of our common stock are subject to the penny stock regulations and restrictions pertaining to low priced stocks
that will create a lack of liquidity and make trading difficult or impossible.
Our
shares will be considered a “penny stock.” Rule 3a51-1 of the Exchange Act establishes the definition of a "penny
stock," for purposes relevant to us, as any equity security that has a minimum bid price of less than $5.00 per share or
with an exercise price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to a limited number of exceptions which are not available to us.
This classification will severely and adversely affects any market liquidity for our common stock.
The
market for penny stocks has experienced numerous frauds and abuses that could adversely impact investors in our stock.
Company
management believes that the market for penny stocks has suffered from patterns of fraud and abuse. Such patterns include:
-
Control of the market for the security by one or a few broker-dealers that are often related to the promoter or issuer;
-
Manipulation of prices through prearranged matching of purchases and sales and false and misleading press releases;
-
"Boiler room" practices involving high pressure sales tactics and unrealistic price projections by sales persons;
-
Excessive and undisclosed bid-ask differentials and markups by selling broker-dealers; and
-
Wholesale dumping of the same securities by promoters and broker-dealers after prices have been manipulated to a desired level,
along with the inevitable collapse of those prices with consequent investor losses.
Our
trading market may be restricted by virtue of state securities “Blue Sky” laws that prohibit trading absent compliance
with individual state laws. These restrictions may make it difficult or impossible to sell shares in those states.
There
is currently no established public market for our common stock, and there can be no assurance that any established public market
will develop in the foreseeable future. Transfer of our common stock may also be restricted under the securities or securities
regulations laws promulgated by various states and foreign jurisdictions, commonly referred to as “Blue Sky” laws.
Absent compliance with such individual state laws, our common stock may not be traded in such jurisdictions. Because the securities
registered hereunder have not been registered for resale under the blue sky laws of any state, the holders of such shares and
persons who desire to purchase them in any trading market that might develop in the future, should be aware that there may be
significant state blue sky law restrictions upon the ability of investors to sell the securities and of purchasers to purchase
the securities. These restrictions prohibit the secondary trading of our common stock. We currently do not intend to and may not
be able to qualify securities for resale in at least 17 states which do not offer manual exemptions (or may offer manual exemptions
but may not to offer one to us if we are considered to be a shell company at the time of application) and require shares to be
qualified before they can be resold by our shareholders. Accordingly, investors should consider the secondary market for our securities
to be a limited one.
Our
board of directors has the authority, without stockholder approval, to issue preferred stock with terms that may not be beneficial
to common stockholders and with the ability to affect adversely stockholder voting power and perpetuate their control over us.
Our
articles of incorporation allow us to issue shares of preferred stock without any vote or further action by our stockholders.
Our board of directors has the authority to fix and determine the relative rights and preferences of preferred stock. Our board
of directors also has the authority to issue preferred stock without further stockholder approval, including large blocks of preferred
stock. As a result, our board of directors could authorize the issuance of a series of preferred stock that would grant to holders
the preferred right to our assets upon liquidation, the right to receive dividend payments before dividends are distributed to
the holders of common stock and the right to the redemption of the shares, together with a premium, prior to the redemption of
our common stock.
We
do not expect to pay cash dividends in the foreseeable future.
We
have never paid cash dividends on our common stock. We do not expect to pay cash dividends on our common stock at any time in
the foreseeable future. The future payment of dividends directly depends upon our future earnings, capital requirements, financial
requirements and other factors that our board of directors will consider. Since we do not anticipate paying cash dividends on
our common stock, return on your investment, if any, will depend solely on an increase, if any, in the market value of our common
stock.
Because
we are not subject to compliance with rules requiring the adoption of certain corporate governance measures, our stockholders
have limited protection against interested director transactions, conflicts of interest and similar matters.
The
Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, as well as rule changes proposed and enacted by the SEC, the New York and American Stock Exchanges
and the Nasdaq Stock Market, as a result of Sarbanes-Oxley, require the implementation of various measures relating to corporate
governance. These measures are designed to enhance the integrity of corporate management and the securities markets and apply
to securities that are listed on those exchanges or the Nasdaq Stock Market. Because we are not presently required to comply with
many of the corporate governance provisions and because we chose to avoid incurring the substantial additional costs associated
with such compliance any sooner than legally required, we have not yet adopted these measures.
Because
none of our directors are independent directors, we do not currently have independent audit or compensation committees. As a result,
these directors have the ability, among other things, to determine their own level of compensation. Until we comply with such
corporate governance measures, regardless of whether such compliance is required, the absence of such standards of corporate governance
may leave our stockholders without protections against interested director transactions, conflicts of interest, if any, and similar
matters and investors may be reluctant to provide us with funds necessary to expand our operations.
We
intend to comply with all corporate governance measures relating to director independence as and when required. However, we may
find it very difficult or be unable to attract and retain qualified officers, directors and members of board committees required
to provide for our effective management as a result of Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. The enactment of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of
2002 has resulted in a series of rules and regulations by the SEC that increase responsibilities and liabilities of directors
and executive officers. The perceived increased personal risk associated with these recent changes may make it more costly or
deter qualified individuals from accepting these roles.
You
may have limited access to information regarding our business because our obligations to file periodic reports with the SEC could
be automatically suspended under certain circumstances.
As
of effectiveness of our registration statement on August 18, 2011, we are required to file periodic reports with the SEC which
will be immediately available to the public for inspection and copying. Except during the year that our registration statement
becomes effective, these reporting obligations may (in our discretion) be automatically suspended under Section 15(d) of the Exchange
Act if we have less than 300 shareholders and do not file a registration statement on Form 8A (which we have no current plans
to file). If this occurs after the year in which our registration statement becomes effective, we will no longer be obligated
to file periodic reports with the SEC and your access to our business information would then be even more restricted. After this
registration statement on Form S-1 becomes effective, we will be required to deliver periodic reports to security holders. However,
we will not be required to furnish proxy statements to security holders and our directors, officers and principal beneficial owners
will not be required to report their beneficial ownership of securities to the SEC pursuant to Section 16 of the Exchange Act
until we have both 500 or more security holders and greater than $10 million in assets. This means that your access to information
regarding our business will be limited.
For
all of the foregoing reasons and others set forth herein, an investment in the Company’s securities in any market
which may develop in the future involves a high degree of risk. Any person considering an investment in such securities should

7. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Our independent registered auditors included an explanatory
paragraph in their opinion on our financial statements as of and for the fiscal year ended July 31, 2015 that states that our lack
of resources causes substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.
Results
of Operations for the years ended July 31, 2015 and 2014
Revenue decreased by $1,481, from $1,481 during the
year ended July 31, 2014 to zero dollars during the year ended July 31, 2015, due to the expiration of the product produced in
the prior year. The Company was focusing on developing new formulas for new products during 2015 and did not generate any revenue.
General, administrative and other expenses
consist of professional fees, office supplies and travel expenses relating to the introduction of the new product line. The
increase of $491,095 during the year ended July 31, 2015, from $584,253 at July 31, 2014 to $1,075,348 at July 31, 2015, is
primarily due to an increase in royalties and licenses of approximately $143,500, an increase in SEC filing costs of $15,699,
a potential litigation settlement for $220,000, and investment finders’ fees of $130,000.
Marketing costs relate to the costs of press releases
and meetings with individuals considered important to the marketplace introduction of our new product line. The increase of $123,857
during the year ended July 31, 2015, from $42,237 at July 31, 2014 to $166,095 at July 31, 2015, is primarily due to marketing
costs incurred to promote the new products and a test marketing program run in January 2015 and sponsorship opportunities throughout
the year.
Product
development costs consist of costs for developing new products, planning for product packaging, samples and similar introductory
costs. The increase of $249,407 during the year ended July 31, 2015, from $0 at July 31, 2014 to $249,407 at July 31, 2015, is
due to the development of new drink flavors, production of test runs and contract manufacturing costs.
Compensation decreased by $726,309, from $1,236,631
during the year ended July 31, 2014 to $510,322 during the year ended July 31, 2015. The decrease was primarily due to a decrease
in share-based compensation of $1,008,410, related to the issuance of 5,437,603 shares of common stock with a market value of $924,392
in connection with the Throwdown License endorsement contract during the year ended July 31, 2014, which was not incurred in the
year ending July 31, 2015, a decrease in athlete endorsement share-based compensation of $156,995, from $159,696 in the prior year
to $2,701 in the current year, share-based compensation paid to consultants totaling $58,300 during the year ended July 31, 2015,
an increase in cash compensation expense to operations staff of $199,157, and an increase in cash compensation paid to Messrs.
Holley and McBride of $60,050.
Other expense increased by $924,913 during
the year ended July 31, 2015 to $2,842,245 compared to the year ended July 31, 2014, when other expense was $1,917,332. The increase
is due to an increase in interest expense of $1,556,304, partially offset by a change in derivative liability of $678,979 and decrease
in other expenses of $36,177.
Net loss for the year ended July 31,
2015 increased by $1,064,445, to $4,843,417 during the year ended July 31, 2015, from $3,778,972 during the fiscal year ended July
31, 2014, primarily due to increased interest expense.
Liquidity
and Capital Resources
We have financed our operations through
the private placement of debt and issuance of common stock.
We
will continue to seek financing as necessary but cannot give any assurances that we will be successful in doing so.
We
are a public company and, as such, have incurred and will continue to incur additional significant expenses for legal, accounting
and related services. Once we become a public entity, subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act of 1934, we will
incur ongoing expenses associated with professional fees for accounting, legal and a host of other expenses including annual reports
and proxy statements, if required.
Seasonality
We
do not yet have a basis to determine whether our business will be seasonal.
Off-Balance
Sheet Arrangements
We
have no off-balance sheet arrangements as defined in Item 303(a)(4)(ii) of Regulation S-K, obligations under any guarantee contracts
or contingent obligations. We also have no other commitments, other than the costs of being a public company that will increase
our operating costs or cash requirements in the future.

9. CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS
On
August 3, 2015, the Company was notified by RBSM LLP (“RBSM”) that RBSM resigned as the Registrant’s independent
registered public accounting firm. RBSM was engaged by the Company on February 2, 2015. RBSM did not issue an audit report on
the Company’s financial statements. Since RBSM did not issue any report on the Company’s financial statements, none
exist that contain an adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, or were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope
or accounting principles.
On August 3, 2015,
the Company engaged GBH CPAs, PC (“GBH”) as its independent registered public accounting firm for the Company’s
fiscal year ending July 31, 2015. The decision to engage GBH as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm
was approved by the Company’s Board of Directors.

9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Management’s
Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
(a) Evaluation
of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
The
Company’s Chief Executive Officer, in his role as CEO and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of the
Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of
July 31, 2015. Based upon such evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer has concluded that, as of July 31, 2015, the Company’s
disclosure controls and procedures were not effective.
Management’s
Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
Under
the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of
our internal control over financial reporting as of July 31, 2015 based on the framework stated by the Committee of Sponsoring
Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Furthermore, due to our financial situation, we will be implementing further internal
controls as we become operative so as to fully comply with the standards set by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the
Treadway Commission.
Our
management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is
defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act. Our internal control system was designed to provide reasonable assurance
regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes, in accordance
with generally accepted accounting principles. Because of inherent limitations, a system of internal control over financial reporting
may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to
the risk that controls may become inadequate due to change in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or
procedures may deteriorate.
Based
on its evaluation as of July 31, 2015 weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of control deficiencies, in internal control
over financial reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the Company’s annual
or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.
The
material weakness relates to the monitoring and review of work performed by our Chief Executive Officer and lack of segregation
of duties. In the preparation of audited financial statements, footnotes and financial data all of our financial reporting is
carried out by our Chief Executive Officer, and we do not have an audit committee to monitor or review the work performed. The
lack of segregation of duties results from lack of accounting staff with accounting technical expertise necessary for an effective
system of internal control. As soon as our finances allow, we will hire sufficient accounting staff and implement appropriate
procedures for monitoring and review of work performed by our Chief Executive Officer.
This
annual report does not include an attestation report of the Company s registered public accounting firm regarding internal control
over financial reporting. Management s report was not subject to attestation by our registered public accounting firm pursuant
to temporary rules of the SEC that permit us to provide only management’s report in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.
(b) Changes
in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
No change in the Company’s internal control over
financial reporting occurred during the year ended July 31, 2015, that materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially
affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
Item
9B. OTHER INFORMATION
No
event occurred during the fourth quarter of the fiscal year ended July 31, 2015 that would have required disclosure in a report

Possible
Potential Conflicts
The
market on which our shares of common stock are quoted does not currently have any director independence requirements.
No
member of management will be required by us to work on a full time basis. Accordingly, certain conflicts of interest may arise
between us and our officer(s) and director(s) in that they may have other business interests in the future to which they devote
their attention, and they may be expected to continue to do so although management time must also be devoted to our business.
As a result, conflicts of interest may arise that can be resolved only through their exercise of such judgment as is consistent
with each officer's understanding of his/her fiduciary duties to us.
Currently
we have only two officers and directors and will seek to add additional officer(s) and/or director(s) as and when the proper personnel
are located and terms of employment are mutually negotiated and agreed, and we have sufficient capital resources and cash flow
to make such offers.
Code
of Business Conduct and Ethics
In
September 2010 we adopted a Code of Ethics and Business Conduct which is applicable to our future employees and which also includes
a Code of Ethics for our chief executive and principal financial officers and any persons performing similar functions. A code
of ethics is a written standard designed to deter wrongdoing and to promote:
-
honest and ethical conduct,
-
full, fair, accurate, timely and understandable disclosure in regulatory filings and public statements,
-
compliance with applicable laws, rules and regulations,
-
the prompt reporting violation of the code, and
-
accountability for adherence to the code.
A
copy of our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics has been filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission as Exhibit 14.1 to
our Registration Statement which was declared effective on August 18, 2011.
Board
of Directors
All
directors hold office until the completion of their term of office, which is not longer than one year, or until their successors
have been elected. Both directors’ terms of office expire on August 31, 2016. All officers are appointed annually by the
board of directors and, subject to existing employment agreements (of which there are currently none) and serve at the discretion
of the board. Currently, directors receive no compensation for their role as directors but may receive compensation for their
role as officers.
As
long as we have an even number of directors, tie votes on issues are resolved in favor of the chairman’s vote.
Involvement
in Certain Legal Proceedings
Except
as described below, during the past five years, no present director, executive officer or person nominated to become a director
or an executive officer of the Company:
1.
had a petition under the federal bankruptcy laws or any state insolvency law filed by or against, or a receiver, fiscal agent
or similar officer appointed by a court for the business or property of such person, or any partnership in which he was a general
partner at or within two years before the time of such filing, or any corporation or business association of which he was an executive
officer at or within two years before the time of such filing;
2.
was convicted in a criminal proceeding or subject to a pending criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations and other minor
offenses);
3.
was subject to any order, judgment or decree, not subsequently reversed, suspended or vacated, of any court of competent jurisdiction,
permanently or temporarily enjoining him/her from or otherwise limiting his/her involvement in any of the following activities:
i.
acting as a futures commission merchant, introducing broker, commodity trading advisor commodity pool operator, floor broker,
leverage transaction merchant, any other person regulated by the Commodity Futures Trading Commission, or an associated person
of any of the foregoing, or as an investment adviser, underwriter, broker or dealer in securities, or as an affiliated person,
director or employee of any investment company, bank, savings and loan association or insurance company, or engaging in or continuing
any conduct or practice in connection with such activity;
ii.
engaging in any type of business practice; or
iii.
engaging in any activity in connection with the purchase or sale of any security or commodity or in connection with any violation
of federal or state securities laws or federal commodities laws; or
4.
was the subject of any order, judgment or decree, not subsequently reversed, suspended or vacated, of an federal or state authority
barring, suspending or otherwise limiting for more than 60 days the right of such person to engage in any activity described in
paragraph (3) (i), above, or to be associated with persons engaged in any such activity; or
5.
was found by a court of competent jurisdiction (in a civil action), the SEC or the Commodity Futures Trading Commission to have
violated a federal or state securities or commodities law, and for which the judgment has not been reversed, suspended or vacated.
Committees
of the Board of Directors
Concurrent
with having sufficient members and resources, the Company’s board of directors will establish an audit committee and a compensation
committee. We believe that we will need a minimum of five directors to have effective committee systems. The audit committee will
review the results and scope of the audit and other services provided by the independent auditors and review and evaluate the
system of internal controls. The compensation committee will manage any stock option plan we may establish and review and recommend
compensation arrangements for the officers. No final determination has yet been made as to the memberships of these committees
or when we will have sufficient members to establish committees.
All
directors will be reimbursed by the Company for any expenses incurred in attending directors' meetings provided that the Company
has the resources to pay these fees. The Company will consider applying for officers and directors liability insurance at such
time when it has the resources to do so.

Beneficial ownership has been determined in accordance
with the rules and regulations of the SEC and includes voting or investment power with respect to the shares. Unless otherwise
indicated, the persons named in the table below have sole voting and investment power with respect to the number of shares indicated
as beneficially owned by them. Common stock beneficially owned and percentage ownership is based on 4,300,023,776 shares outstanding
on the Record Date and assuming the exercise of any options or warrants or conversion of any convertible securities held by such
person, which are presently exercisable or will become exercisable within 60 days of the Record Date.

Shareholder
Matters
As
an issuer of "penny stock," the protection provided by the federal securities laws relating to forward looking statements
does not apply to us as long as our shares continue to be penny stocks. Although the federal securities law provide a safe harbor
for forward-looking statements made by a public company that files reports under the federal securities laws, this safe harbor
is not available to issuers of penny stocks. As a result, we will not have the benefit of this safe harbor protection in the event
of any claim that the material provided by us, including this Annual Report on Form 10-K, contained a material misstatement of
fact or was misleading in any material respect because of our failure to include any statements necessary to make the statements
not misleading.
As
a Nevada corporation, we are subject to the Nevada Revised Statutes ("NRS" or "Nevada law"). Certain
provisions of Nevada law create rights that might be deemed material to our shareholders. Other provisions might delay or make
more difficult acquisitions of our stock or changes in our control or might also have the effect of preventing changes in our
management or might make it more difficult to accomplish transactions that some of our shareholders may believe to be in their
best interests.
Directors'
Duties. Section 78.138 of the Nevada law allows our directors and officers, in exercising their powers to further our interests,
to consider the interests of our employees, suppliers, creditors and customers. They can also consider the economy of the state
and the nation, the interests of the community and of society and our long-term and short-term interests and shareholders, including
the possibility that these interests may be best served by our continued independence. Our directors may resist a change or potential
change in control if they, by a majority vote of a quorum, determine that the change or potential change is opposed to or not
in our best interest. Our board of directors may consider these interests or have reasonable grounds to believe that, within a
reasonable time, any debt which might be created as a result of the change in control would cause our assets to be less than our
liabilities, render us insolvent, or cause us to file for bankruptcy protection
Amendments
to Bylaws - Our articles of incorporation provide that the power to adopt, alter, amend, or repeal our bylaws
is vested exclusively with the board of directors. In exercising this discretion, our board of directors could conceivably alter
our bylaws in ways that would affect the rights of our shareholders and the ability of any shareholder or group to effect a change
in our control; however, the board would not have the right to do so in a way that would violate law or the applicable terms of
our articles of incorporation.
Item
13. CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS AND DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCE
Our
office and mailing address is 5137 E. Armor St., Cave Creek, AZ 85331. The space is provided to us by Mr. Holley who incurs no
incremental costs as a result of our using the space. Therefore, he does not charge us for its use. There is no written lease
agreement.
Director
Independence; Committees of the Board of Directors
Our
Board of Directors is comprised of two individuals, one of whom is integral to the operations of our company, we do not have a
majority of independent directors as that term is defined under Rule 4200(a) (15) of the NASDAQ Marketplace Rules, even though
that definition does not currently apply to us, because we are not listed on the NASDAQ. We anticipate that if we expand
our Board of Directors in the future, that we will seek to include members who are independent. Our securities are not quoted
on an exchange that has requirements that a majority of our Board members be independent and we are not currently otherwise subject
to any law, rule or regulation requiring that all or any portion of our Board of Directors include “independent” directors.
Our
Board of Directors has not established any committees, including an Audit Committee, a Compensation Committee or a Nominating
Committee, or any committee performing a similar function. The functions of those committees are being undertaken by the entire
board as a whole. Our board of directors does not believe that it is necessary to have such committees because it believes the
functions of such committees can be adequately performed by our Board of Directors as a whole. Further, since our securities
are not listed on an exchange, we are not subject to any qualitative requirements mandating the establishment of any particular
committees.
We
do not have a policy regarding the consideration of any director candidates which may be recommended by our shareholders, including
the minimum qualifications for director candidates, nor has our Board of Directors established a process for identifying and evaluating
director nominees. We have not adopted a policy regarding the handling of any potential recommendation of director candidates
by our shareholders, including the procedures to be followed. Our Board has not considered or adopted any of these policies as
we have never received a recommendation from any stockholder for any candidate to serve on our Board of Directors. Given the nature
of our operations and lack of directors and officers insurance coverage, we do not anticipate that any of our shareholders will
make such a recommendation in the near future. While there have been no nominations of additional directors proposed, in the event
such a proposal is made, all members of our Board will participate in the consideration of director nominees.
None
of our directors is an "audit committee financial expert" within the meaning of Item 407(d)(5) of Regulation S-K. In
general, an "audit committee financial expert" is an individual member of the audit committee or Board of Directors
who:
● |
understands
generally accepted accounting principles and financial statements, |
● |
is
able to assess the general application of such principles in connection with accounting for estimates, accruals and reserves, |
● |
has
experience preparing, auditing, analyzing or evaluating financial statements comparable to the breadth and complexity to our
financial statements, |
● |
understands
internal controls over financial reporting, and |
● |
understands
audit committee functions. |
We
believe that the members of our Board of Directors are collectively capable of analyzing and evaluating our financial statements
and understanding internal controls and procedures for financial reporting. We believe that retaining an independent director
who would qualify as an “audit committee financial expert” would be overly costly and burdensome and is not warranted
in our circumstances.

TABLE

Report
of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Board
of Directors
High Performance
Beverages Company
Cave Creek,
Arizona
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet
of High Performance Beverages Company ("the Company") as of July 31, 2015 and the related consolidated statements of
operations, shareholders' deficit, and cash flows for the year then ended. The Company’s management is responsible for these
financial statements. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of
the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have,
nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of
internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances,
but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts
and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates
made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides
a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, such financial statements present fairly,
in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of the Company as of July 31, 2015 and the consolidated results of
its operations and its cash flows for the year then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United
States of America.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared
assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 3 to the consolidated financial statements, the
Company has an accumulated deficit, negative shareholders' equity, and a working capital deficiency at July 31, 2015, which raised
substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans concerning this matter are also described
in Note 3. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

NOTE 1 -
ORGANIZATION
High
Performance Beverages Company (formerly known as Dethrone Royalty Holdings, Inc. and Exclusive Building Services, Inc.) (the “Company”)
was founded as an unincorporated DBA in February 1997 and was incorporated as a C corporation under the laws of the State of Nevada
on October 11, 2010.
In October 2013, the Company entered
into a license agreement with Throwdown Industries Holdings, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Throwdown Licensor”),
pursuant to which the Licensor granted an exclusive, non-sublicenseable and non-assignable right to the Company to use its trademarks
and other intellectual properties (“Throwdown Trademarks”) solely in connection with the development, manufacture,
distribution, marketing and sale of sports performance drinks within the United States and Canada (the “Throwdown License
Agreement”) as well as a one-time right of first refusal to license other types of beverages. The Throwdown License was terminated
in December 2014.

NOTE
2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont'd)
Use
of Estimates and Assumptions
Preparation
of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires
management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts and disclosures. Accordingly, actual results
could differ from those estimates.
Cash
and Cash Equivalents
For
purposes of the balance sheet and statement of cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid instruments with maturity of
three months or less at the time of issuance to be cash equivalents.
Inventory
Inventories
are stated at the lower of cost or market value under the first-in, first-out method. The Company regularly assesses slow-moving,
excess and obsolete inventory and maintains balance sheet reserves in amounts required to reduce the recorded value of inventory
to lower of cost or market.
Fair
Value Considerations
The Company follows ASC 820, “Fair
Value Measurements and Disclosures,” as amended by Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Financial Staff Position
(FSP) No. 157 and related guidance. Those provisions relate to the Company’s financial assets and liabilities carried at
fair value and the fair value disclosures related to financial assets and liabilities. ASC 820 defines fair value, expands related
disclosure requirements, and specifies a hierarchy of valuation techniques based on the nature of the inputs used to develop the
fair value measures. 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, assuming the transaction occurs in the principal
or most advantageous market for that asset or liability.
There are three levels of inputs to
fair value measurements - Level 1, meaning the use of quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets; Level 2, meaning
the use of quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets or quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets
that are not active or are directly or indirectly observable; and Level 3, meaning the use of unobservable inputs. The Company
uses Level 1 inputs for its fair value measurements whenever there is an active market, with actual quotes, market prices, and
observable inputs on the measurement date. The Company uses Level 2 inputs for fair value measurements whenever there are quoted
prices for similar securities in an active market or quoted prices for identical securities in an inactive market. The Company
uses observable market data whenever available.
Derivative
Liabilities
The
Company, in accordance with ASC 815-40-25 and ASC 815-10-15 Derivatives and Hedging and ASC 480-10-25 Liabilities-Distinguishing
Liabilities from Equity, the embedded derivate associated with convertible notes payable are accounted for as liabilities during
the term of the related notes payable.
Revenue
Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue
when it is realized or realizable and earned less estimated future doubtful accounts. The Company considers revenue realized
or realizable and earned when all of the following criteria are met: (i) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, (ii) the
services have been rendered to the customer, (iii) the sales price is fixed or determinable, and (iv) collectability is reasonably
assured.
Stock-based
Compensation
The Company measures the cost of employee
services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments based on the grant-date fair value of the award (with limited
exceptions). Incremental compensation costs arising from subsequent modifications of awards after the grant date must be recognized.
The Company has not adopted a stock option plan and has not granted any stock options.

NOTE
2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont'd)
Income
Taxes
A deferred tax asset or liability is recorded for
all temporary differences between financial and tax reporting and net operating loss carry forwards. Deferred tax expense
(benefit) results from the net change during the year of deferred tax assets and
liabilities.
Deferred
tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion
or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects
of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment.
Loss
per Share
Basic and diluted net income per common
share has been calculated by dividing the net income for the period by the basic and diluted weighted average number of common
shares. As of July 31, 2015 and 2014, independent third parties held 14,439,441 and 21,504,486 warrants outstanding, respectively,
which have a dilutive effect.
Subsequent Events
The Company evaluates subsequent events
from the date of the balance sheet through the date when the financial statements are issued.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
The Company has implemented all new accounting pronouncements
that are in effect and that may impact its financial statements and does not believe that there are any other new accounting pronouncements
that have been issued that might have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations.
Reclassifications
Certain comparative figures have
been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.

NOTE
3 - GOING CONCERN
The
accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern.
As reflected in the accompanying consolidated financial statements, the Company had negative net working capital and a net stockholders’
deficit at July 31, 2015 and had no reliable source of ongoing debt or equity financing.
The Company is emphasizing a new product
line involving the manufacture and sale of sports performance or energy drinks along with any other non-alcoholic beverage under
the trade name High Performance Beverages Company. However, there are uncertainties as to whether the Company will obtain sufficient
financing to introduce and distribute the planned product or, if distributed, there will be sufficient market demand for the products.
The
consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue
as a going concern.

On
November 15, 2012, the Company entered into a Senior Secured Promissory Note with an unaffiliated party under which the Company
received a one-year loan with a principal balance of $100,000. This note bears interest at 20% per annum with interest payments
due quarterly. In addition, the Company issued 2,500,000 shares of restricted common stock to the lender and Mr. Holley and McBride
pledged their 56,250,000 shares of the Company’s common stock as collateral and transferred 1,000,000 shares of free trading
shares to the lender. If the Company goes into default of the provisions of the note, it becomes convertible into the Company’s
common stock at a price of $0.001 per share (100 million shares).
On June 20, 2013, the Company and the lender entered into an amended
and restated Senior Secured Convertible Promissory Note which amended certain terms of this note. Pursuant to the amended note,
the Company’s repayment of the principal balance of the amended note is secured by all the assets of the Company. In addition,
the provisions of this note whereby Messrs. Holley and McBride pledged 56,250,000 of their shares of common stock of the Company
were removed.

On February 27, 2013, the Company
entered into a $335,000 convertible loan agreement. This agreement provides for a $35,000 original issue discount. The
lender, at its discretion, may provide funds up to $300,000 to the Company. It provided $60,000 at the closing of this
agreement on April 30, 2013. All loans under this agreement are payable in full one year after the funds are issued, together
with a prorated portion of the original issue discount. All amounts outstanding under this agreement become convertible, at
the lender’s discretion, into shares of the Company’s common stock starting 180 days from the execution date of
this agreement. The conversion rate per share is the lower of (i) $0.044 or (ii) 60% of the lowest trade price during the 25
trading days prior to a conversion notice. The lender has agreed that it will not execute any short trades and, at no time,
will hold more than 4.9% of the Company’s outstanding common stock. If the Company repays all amounts
outstanding under the agreement within 90 days of the execution date, there will be no interest amounts due. If it does not
pay all amounts due within 90 days of the execution date, it cannot make any other prepayments of the amounts outstanding
without the consent of the lender. In addition, there will be a one-time interest charge of 12% of the amounts outstanding.
The Company must also register all shares that are issuable under the agreement in any Registration Statement that it files
with the SEC for any purpose. The Company has not filed a Registration Statement since this note was issued. As of July 31, 2015, this note was in default. | |

interest, liquidated damages and other amounts owing on the debenture through the date of the acceleration shall become at the

NOTE
5 - DERIVATIVE LIABILITY
The convertible notes payable issued by the
Company contain a variable conversion feature (the Variable Conversion Feature) that gives rise to a derivative liability. The
Company has measured its derivative liability at fair value and recognized the derivative value as a current liability and recorded
the derivative value on its consolidated balance sheet. The derivative is valued primarily using models based on unobservable
inputs that are supported by little to no market activity. These inputs represent management’s best estimate of what market
participants would use in pricing the liability at the measurement date and thus are classified as Level 3. Changes in the fair
values of the derivative are recognized as earnings or losses in the current period.
The fair values of derivative liabilities
related to the Variable Conversion Feature for the years ended July 31, 2015 and 2014 were estimated on the transaction dates
and balance sheet dates under the following assumptions:

Throwdown
License Agreement
On
October 10, 2013, the Company entered into a license agreement (“Throwdown License Agreement”) with Throwdown Industries
Holdings, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Licensor”), pursuant to which the Licensor granted an exclusive,
non-sublicenseable and non-assignable right to the Company to use its trademarks and other intellectual properties (“Trademarks”)
solely in connection with the development, manufacture, distribution, marketing and sale of sports performance drinks within the
United States and Canada (the “License”) as well as a one-time right of first refusal to license other types of beverages.
The Company’s rights under the License Agreement are contingent upon Licensor’s prior written approval of any sports
performance drinks developed or proposed by the Company to contain any of the Trademarks (“Licensed Products”).
In
consideration for the License, the Company shall pay ten percent (10%) of the net revenue generated by all sales and other transfers
of the Licensed Products during the term of the License Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall pay the minimum
royalties as set forth below:

In
addition to the cash payment, the Company will also issue 5,437,603 shares of its common stock to the Licensor. During each
quarter of the term of the Throwdown License Agreement, the Licensor shall have the option to convert a portion or all
of the greater of the minimum quarterly payments or the actual earned royalties into shares of stock of the Company at an
exercise price equal to the lesser of $0.03 per share or the VWAP for the ten (10) trading days prior to the end of the
respective quarter during the term.
In
December 2014, both parties to the contract agreed to terminate the licensing agreement.
Pending
and Threatened Litigation
As of July 31, 2015, the Company was
involved in a civil lawsuit pending in the United States District Court. The Plaintiffs sought damages ranging from $4,814,500
to $25,000,000 arising from the alleged breach of terms for certain marketing services. Plaintiffs asserted their claims based
on the legal theories of breach of contract and fraud. The Company had moved to dismiss all but one of the claims for breach of
contract asserted in the complaint, which motion was still pending at July 31, 2015. Management denied the remaining claim and
vigorously defended against it. In August 2015, the litigation was settled in exchange for the issuance of 100,000,000 shares of
the Company’s common stock, having a fair market value of $220,000. The Company has accrued a liability of $220,000 at July 31,
2015.
On September 17, 2015, the Company entered
into a Settlement Agreement with a lender. In accordance with the Settlement Agreement, the Company agreed to issue to the lender
a convertible promissory note in the principal amount of $240,500, in exchange for the return and cancellation of certain outstanding
debt held by the lender. The debt was comprised of an aggregate of $240,500 of principal and interest on i) a convertible debenture
in the original principal amount of $60,000 issued to the lender on April 30, 2013, ii) a senior secured convertible promissory
note with an original principal balance of $100,000, which the lender had assumed from an individual on June 17, 2013,
and iii) a convertible note with an original principal amount of $42,000 issued to the lender on March 31, 2014.
The Company is also involved in the
following lawsuits:
On or about January 29, 2015, Alpha
Capital Anstalt (“Alpha”) filed a complaint against the Company for damages in connection with a note that they alleged
was in default by the Company, which was answered on or about April 3, 2015. See Case 1:15-cv-00639-CM filed in the United States
District Court, Southern District. It is still pending, discovery is complete, and Alpha has filed and served a motion for summary
judgment. The Company plans to file and opposition, and the case will likely be settled in the meantime.
