This Asset Purchase Agreement (the “Agreement”) is made and entered into as of the 31st day of August 2012 by and among RadioLoyalty, Inc., a California corporation (the “Seller”), Lux Digital Pictures, Inc., a Wyoming corporation (the “Buyer” or “Company”), and StreamTrack Media, Inc., a California corporation (“Buyer’s Subsidiary”), with respect to the following facts:
R E C I T A L S
A. Seller is engaged in the business of providing key support services for both mobile and online content, using proprietary platforms developed by Seller over the last five years (the “Business”).
B. Seller wishes to sell to Buyer, and Buyer wishes to purchase from Seller, the Business and substantially all of the assets (collectively, the “Acquired Assets”) of Seller on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement.
C. The purchase of the Acquired Assets under this Agreement is intended to qualify as a tax free purchase and sale under Section 368 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.
NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged by the parties to this Agreement, and in light of the above recitals to this Agreement, the parties to this Agreement hereby agree as follows:
Purchase and Sale of Assets.
1.1 Sale of Acquired Assets. Upon the terms, and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement being satisfied or waived as provided herein, at the Closing (as defined in Section 4.1 of this Agreement), Seller will sell, transfer, and assign to Buyer’s Subsidiary and Buyer will purchase and accept from Seller substantially all of the tangible and intangible assets of the Seller, presently owned or leased by the Seller, wherever located, including, but not limited to all contractual rights, accounts
receivable, all other receivables, cash, deposits, prepaid expenses, inventory, machinery, equipment, engineering data, databases, systems, designs, computer hardware and software, records, works in process, backlog, intellectual property (including but not limited to patents and licensing agreements), know-how, trade secrets, inventions, technology, company name, operating and equipment leases, licenses, permits, franchises, websites, customers, suppliers, contracts, sales and marketing literature and processes, techniques, goodwill, web sites, and pricing information related to the Business, as more particularly described in Exhibit C to this Agreement (the “Acquired Assets”), free and clear of all claims, liens, security interests, pledges and encumbrances other than those assumed by Buyer’s Subsidiary pursuant to this Agreement.
- 1 -
1.2 Purchase Price. Upon the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, in consideration for the sale, assignment, and transfer of the Acquired Assets to the Buyer’s Subsidiary, the Buyer will, after the Closing and within five (5) business days after the recording of Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation by the Buyer with the Wyoming Secretary of State that effect a reverse split of the Buyer’s issued and outstanding common stock, issue to Seller a number of shares of Buyer’s common
stock (the “Shares”) such that on the date of the issuance of the Shares, the Seller and its affiliates will own a number of shares of the Buyer’s common stock equal to approximately 90% of the total issued and outstanding shares of Buyer’s common stock, (i) assuming the conversion of all outstanding Series A Convertible Preferred Stock of the Buyer into Buyer’s common stock on the Share issuance date, and (ii) including and taking into account all other shares of the Buyer’s common stock already owned by the Seller and its affiliates on the Share issuance date (the “Purchase Price”); provided, that the calculation of the number of Shares issuable to Seller under this Agreement will reflect that the dilution caused by outstanding shares of Buyer’s common stock in the public float on the Share issuance date will be borne 90% by the
Seller and 10% by the holders of the Buyer’s outstanding Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, (i.e. on the Share issuance date and assuming the conversion of all outstanding Series A Convertible Preferred Stock of the Buyer on such date, the Seller will own 90% of the Buyer’s outstanding common stock that is not in the Buyer’s public float, and the holders of such Series A Convertible Preferred Stock will collectively own 10% of the Buyer’s outstanding common stock that is not in the Buyer’s public float). Reference to the Buyer’s “public float” in this Agreement means outstanding shares of Buyer’s common stock that are not owned by Buyer, Seller, or any of their affiliates.
1.3 Risk of Loss. Pending the Closing, all risk of loss, damage or destruction to the Acquired Assets will be borne by Seller and the Purchase Price being paid to Seller by Buyer will, in the case of any such loss, damage, or destruction, be adjusted accordingly. In the event of a significant adjustment, either party will have the option to terminate the purchase contemplated under this Agreement.
1.4 Valuation of Assets. Buyer and Seller agree that the total value of the Acquired Assets is the amount set forth on Exhibit E to this Agreement. Buyer and Seller covenant to determine in good faith the value of each of the Acquired Assets after the Closing.
Obligations and Liabilities.
On the Closing Date, neither Buyer nor Buyer’s Subsidiary will assume or be obligated to satisfy or perform any liabilities, obligations or payables of Seller, other than those listed on Exhibit D to this Agreement.
Piggyback Registration Rights.
With respect to shares of Buyer’s common stock owned by Buyer or its affiliates (the “Registerable Securities”), if Buyer determines to register any of its securities for its own account, other than a registration relating to (a) any employee benefit plans, (b) a corporate reorganization or Rule 145 transaction or (c) any registration form which does not permit secondary sales, Buyer and its affiliates shall have to right to include in such registration up to the number of shares of Registerable Securities equal to 15% of the total number of shares that Seller determines to register (the “Piggyback Registration Right”).

4.1 Time and Place of Closing. Upon satisfaction or waiver of the conditions set forth in Section 7 of this Agreement, the closing of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (the “Closing”) will take place at the law offices of Xxxxxxxxxx & Associates at 0000 Xxxxx Xxxxxx Xxxxxxxxx, Xxxxx 000, Xxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxxx 00000 at 1:00 p.m. (local time) on the date that the parties may mutually agree in writing, but in no event later than August 31, 2012 (the “Closing

In the event that the Closing does not occur by August 31, 2012 through no fault or breach of this Agreement by either party, and the Closing Date is not extended by mutual written agreement of the Seller and the Buyer, then either party may terminate this Agreement without further obligation to the other party, except as provided in Section 25 of this Agreement.

10.3 Procedure for Indemnification Claims.
(a) Whenever any parties become aware that a claim (an “Underlying Claim”) has arisen entitling them to seek indemnification under this Section 10 of the Agreement, such parties (the “Indemnified Parties”) shall promptly send a notice (“Notice”) to the parties liable for such indemnification (the “Indemnifying Parties”) of the right to indemnification (the “Indemnity Claim”); provided, however, that the failure to so notify the Indemnifying Parties will relieve the Indemnifying Parties from liability under this Agreement with respect to such Indemnity Claim only if, and only to the
extent that, such failure to notify the Indemnifying Parties results in material prejudice to the Indemnifying Parties of rights and defenses otherwise available to the Indemnifying Parties with respect to the Underlying Claim. Any Notice pursuant to this Section 10.3(a) shall set forth in reasonable detail, to the extent then available, the basis for such Indemnity Claim and an estimate of the amount of damages arising therefrom.
(b) If an Indemnity Claim does not result from or arise in connection with any Underlying Claim or legal proceedings by a third party, the Indemnifying Parties will have fifteen (15) calendar days following receipt of the Notice to issue a written response to the Indemnified Parties, indicating the Indemnifying Parties’ intention to either (i) contest the Indemnity Claim or (ii) accept the Indemnity Claim as valid. The Indemnifying Parties’ failure to provide such a written response within such fifteen (15) day period shall be deemed to be an acceptance of
the Indemnity Claim as valid. In the event that an Indemnity Claim is accepted as valid, the Indemnifying Parties shall, within fifteen (15) Business Days thereafter, pay the damages incurred by the Indemnified Parties in respect of the Underlying Claim in cash by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account or accounts specified by the Indemnified Parties. To the extent appropriate, payments for indemnifiable damages made pursuant to Section 10 of the Agreement will be treated as adjustments to the Purchase Price.
(c) In the event an Indemnity Claim results from or arises in connection with any Underlying Claim or legal proceedings by a third party, the Indemnifying Parties shall have fifteen (15) calendar days following receipt of the Notice to send a Notice to the Indemnified Parties of their election to, at their sole cost and expense, assume the defense of any such Underlying Claim or legal proceeding; provided that such Notice of election shall contain a confirmation by the Indemnifying Parties of their obligation to hold harmless the Indemnified Parties with respect to damages arising from such Underlying Claim. The failure by the
Indemnifying Parties to elect to assume the defense of any such Underlying Claim within such fifteen (15) day period shall entitle the Indemnified Parties to undertake control of the defense of the Underlying Claim on behalf of and for the account and risk of the Indemnifying Parties in such manner as the Indemnified Parties may deem appropriate, including, but not limited to, settling the Underlying Claim. However, the parties controlling the defense of the Underlying Claim shall not settle or compromise such Underlying Claim without the prior written consent of the other parties, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. The non-controlling parties shall be entitled to participate in (but not control) the defense of any such action, with their own counsel and at their own expense.
- 11 -
(d) The Indemnifying Parties and the Indemnified Parties will cooperate reasonably, fully and in good faith with each other, at the sole expense of the Indemnifying Parties, in connection with the defense, compromise or settlement of any Underlying Claim including, without limitation, by making available to the other parties all pertinent information and witnesses within their reasonable control.
Injunctive Relief.
11.1 Damages Inadequate. Each party acknowledges that it would be impossible to measure in money the damages to the other party if there is a failure to comply with any covenants and provisions of this Agreement, and agrees that in the event of any breach of any covenant or provision, the other party to this Agreement will not have an adequate remedy at law.
11.2 Injunctive Relief. It is therefore agreed that the other party to this Agreement who is entitled to the benefit of the covenants and provisions of this Agreement which have been breached, in addition to any other rights or remedies which they may have, will be entitled to immediate injunctive relief to enforce such covenants and provisions, and that in the event that any such action or proceeding is brought in equity to enforce them, the defaulting or breaching party will not urge a defense that there is an
adequate remedy at law.
Arbitration.
Any dispute under this Agreement will be resolved by binding arbitration conducted in accordance with the rules and procedures of the American Arbitration Association as they are then in effect in the County of Los Angeles, State of California. In order to select an arbitrator, each party to the dispute will select an arbitrator of its choice through JAMS, and those selected arbitrators will then select by mutual agreement a single arbitrator through JAMS for the proceeding. The decision of the arbitrator will be final and binding on the parties to this Agreement, and judgment thereon may be entered in the Superior Court for the County of Bernardino or any other court having
jurisdiction. Each party to this Agreement will advance one-half of the arbitrator’s fees; however, all costs of the arbitration proceeding to enforce this Agreement, including attorneys’ fees and witness expenses, will be paid by the party against whom the arbitrator rules. It is expressly agreed that the parties to any such arbitration may take discovery as contemplated and provided for by California Code of Civil Procedure §1283.05. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the parties hereto will not be required to submit a claim to arbitration if the claim is for temporary or preliminary equitable or injunctive relief that could not practicably be heard in a timely fashion through the arbitration process.
Waivers.
If any party at any time waives any rights hereunder resulting from any breach by the other party of any of the provisions of this Agreement, such waiver is not to be construed as a continuing waiver of other breaches of the same or other provisions of this Agreement. Resort to any remedies referred to herein will not be construed as a waiver of any other rights and remedies to which such party is entitled under this Agreement or otherwise.
- 12 -
Successors and Assigns.
Each covenant and representation of this Agreement will inure to the benefit of and be binding upon each of the parties, their personal representatives, assigns and other successors in interest.
Entire and Sole Agreement.
This Agreement and its exhibits and schedules constitute the entire agreement between the parties and supersede all other agreements, representations, warranties, statements, promises and undertakings, whether oral or written, with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement. This Agreement may be modified or amended only by a written agreement signed by the parties against whom the amendment is sought to be enforced.
Governing Law.
This Agreement will be governed by the laws of California without giving effect to applicable conflict of laws provisions. With respect to any disputes arising out of or relating to this Agreement, each party agrees that any disputes that are not resolved by the parties will be submitted to binding arbitration with the American Arbitration Association located in Santa Xxxxxxx County, California; provided, that any party may seek equitable remedies under this Agreement without referring them to binding arbitration.
Counterparts.
This Agreement may be executed simultaneously in any number of counterparts, each of which counterparts will be deemed to be an original, and such counterparts will constitute but one and the same instrument.
Attorneys’ Fees and Costs.
In the event that either party must resort to legal action in order to enforce the provisions of this Agreement or to defend such action, the prevailing party will be entitled to receive reimbursement from the nonprevailing party for all reasonable attorneys’ fees and all other costs incurred in commencing or defending such action, or in enforcing this Agreement, including but not limited to post judgment costs.
Assignment.
This Agreement may not be assigned by any party without prior written consent of the other parties.
Remedies.
Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, none of the remedies set forth in this Agreement are intended to be exclusive, and each party will have all other remedies now or hereafter existing at law, in equity, by statute or otherwise. The election of any one or more remedies will not constitute a waiver of the right to pursue other available remedies.
- 13 -
Section Headings.
The section headings in this Agreement are included for convenience only, are not a part of this Agreement and will not be used in construing it.
Severability.
In the event that any provision or any part of this Agreement is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, such illegality, invalidity or unenforceability will not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision or part of this Agreement.
Notices.
Each notice or other communication hereunder must be in writing and will be deemed to have been duly given on the earlier of (i) the date on which such notice or other communication is actually received by the intended recipient thereof, or (ii) the date five (5) days after the date such notice or other communication is mailed by registered or certified mail (postage prepaid) to the intended recipient at the following address (or at such other address as the intended recipient will have specified in a written notice given to the other parties hereto):

Valuation of Capital Structure for Radio Loyalty
Section 1: Engagement Overview
September 6, 2012
Mr. Xxxxxxx Xxxx
President & CEO
Radio Loyalty, Inc.
000 Xxxxxxx Xxxxxx
Xxxxx Xxxxxxx, XX 00000
Dear Xx. Xxxx,
Pursuant to your request, Axiom Valuation Solutions has prepared an analysis with respect to the fair value of the equity components of Radio Loyalty, as of 5/31/2012.1
This letter is intended to provide you with an overview of the purpose and scope of our analyses and our conclusions. Please refer to the attached report for a discussion and presentation of the analyses performed in connection with this engagement.
The standard of value underlying our analysis is fair value. Fair value is defined as:
The amount at which an asset (liability) could be bought (incurred) or sold (settled) in a current transaction between willing parties, that is, other than in a forced or liquidation sale.
This standard of value is to be contrasted to strategic value which reflects the unique characteristics of a buyer who may be willing and have the capacity to pay more than fair value for a particular asset. Takeover premiums associated with the acquisition of strategic assets often reflect synergies that emerge because the acquirer may already own like assets and therefore, for example, be able to implement reduction in the combined cost base that would not be available to an acquirer that did not already own such assets. This reduction in cost needs to be contrasted with those that would be available to any
market participant. This latter cost reduction, which would yield higher cash flows and thus result in incremental value, would be included in a calculation of fair value. Fair value is the standard used when undertaking a valuation for financial reporting purposes which is the basis of this engagement.

Summary of Findings
The table below summarizes the results of our analysis as it applies to an illiquid minority interest in the company. The data and the analysis associated with the values in Table 1-1 are shown in Appendix C, Table C-3 to C-8.
Table 1-1: Fair Value of Radio Loyalty’s Capital Structure
Source: Axiom
The valuation results shown in the above table are based on Radio Loyalty’s management projections of future financial performance and were calculated using both discounted cash flow and the method of multiples.
The value of common shown in the above table on row 8 is its fair value and represents the strike price for newly granted options at the valuation date. The allocation of equity is based on a contingent claims model where each equity security has a claim on total equity. These claims are call options. The total value of equity at the valuation date is allocated to the various equity securities that have been issued by the firm. Explanations of this allocation methodology are shown below based on Radio Loyalty’s specific capital structure.
Option 1: Common call option, which yields a call value equal to the total equity value; strike price = 0.
Option 2: $0.50 Warrants and Convertible Debt exercise
Option 1 - Option 2: Allocated according to ownership percentage on a fully diluted basis among common.
All remaining value is allocated according to ownership percentage on a fully diluted basis.

Financial Analysis
The company’s historical and projected income statement is presented in the tables below. Axiom was provided with a detailed six month income statement from the beginning of operations to the valuation date. For the projection years, we only received high level information including Revenues, EBITDA, EBIT, and Depreciation & Amortization.
To provide a more meaningful income statement, we allocated expenses based on the percentage of revenue each expense line made up for the base period. In order to tie the reported expenses to the allocated expenses, a multiplier was used to evenly allocate to each item. Depreciation & Amortization was not included in the calculation of the multiplier because Radio Loyalty provided us with these values.

Section 3: Industry Overview4
Guideline Public Company Analysis
In valuing a business or its assets, it is important to consider the condition of, and outlook for, the industry in which the enterprise operates. Depending upon the nature of the marketplace, industry conditions can significantly impact financial performance and, consequently, value. Axiom classified Radio Loyalty within the Radio and Television Broadcasting industry5. Based on our discussion with
management with respect to Radio Loyalty’s competitors, we analyzed a population of possible public guideline companies and selected the ones that we considered to be comparable to Radio Loyalty in terms of business model, strategic focus of the business, and the degree to which the firms were serving the same customer base as Radio Loyalty. Below we summarize their business operations6.

The Music Genome Project and its playlist generating algorithms predict listener music preferences, play music content suited to the tastes of each individual listener and introduce listeners to music they will love. When a listener enters a single song, artist or genre to start a station, a process it calls seeding, the Pandora service generates a station that plays music it think that listener will enjoy. It generates
revenue from advertising. It also offers a subscription service to listeners. The Company’s service enables its listeners to create up to 100 personalized stations.

Valuation of Capital Structure for Radio Loyalty
Table 3-1 and Table 3-2 compare Radio Loyalty with guideline firms, operating in the same industry, across a number of important financial indicators. Although Radio Loyalty is comparable to the guideline firms across several indicators, it is smaller in terms of revenues and assets. Based on these factors, we conclude that the guideline firm valuation data cannot be directly used to develop a valuation multiple for Radio Loyalty. Rather, one needs to combine Radio Loyalty’s profit data and cost of capital with guideline firm valuation multiples to develop a valuation multiple that informed investors would use to value Radio Loyalty. All relevant data and calculations are presented in Appendix C.

Table 3-3: Valuation of Radio Loyalty using the Median Projected Multiple
Source: Axiom
The median projected multiple was based on the median growth rate, g, Radio Loyalty’s cost of capital and its NOPAT margin. After obtaining the median projected multiple, the enterprise value is calculated by multiplying the multiple by Radio Loyalty’s revenue.
Axiom used a forward growth rate due to the fact that Radio Loyalty had a negative NOPAT margin in 2012. Analyst estimates from Bloomberg were used to find the comparable company’s 2013 projected revenue and 2013 projected NOPAT. P, ROIAK, and BBGI were excluded from the forward growth rate calculation due to the lack of analyst estimates for the companys. Using the same method described above, we use the comparable company’s projected financial results to calculate each firm’s implied g for the next year. The median projected multiple was multiplied by Radio Loyalty’s projected 2013 revenue to arrive at the enterprise value as of the measurement date.
The volatility measure used was developed by calculating the monthly return standard deviations of guideline firms and then annualizing each monthly standard deviation. A summary of the volatility measures used as valuation input is shown below. Extreme values greater than 100% or smaller than 20% were excluded from the calculation. Relevant data and calculations are presented in Appendix C, Table C-9 to C-12.

Guideline Transactions Analysis
In addition to public firm comparables, valuation multiples indicated by transactions involving the sale of comparable companies can often provide meaningful input into a fair value analysis of a closely-held company. As part of our analysis we attempted to identify transactions involving companies which are reasonably comparable in nature to Radio Loyalty. Axiom researched the Xxxxx’x Stats, BizComps, and Public Stats databases. No appropriate transactions were identified for this analysis.

Section 4: Valuation Theory and Analysis
Valuation Overview
The valuation analysis is completed in two stages. First the firm’s enterprise value is determined. The methods that are employed depend on the firm’s stage of business development. Once the enterprise value is determined, the market value of equity is calculated as the difference between the enterprise value at the valuation date and the market value of debt at the valuation date. The market value of equity is then allocated between convertible preferred stock and common stock. To the extent the firm has issued options or other derivative securities that derive their value from the underlying common, their values are simultaneously determined with the value of common. The
resulting common stock value is used as the strike price for option grants at the valuation date.
Valuation and the Stage of Business Development
The AICPA guideline requires that the valuation approaches used reflect a firm’s stage of business development. The AICPA has outlined six stages of business development. The table below summarizes these stages.
Table 4-1: Stages of Business Development
Source: AICPA Practice Guide
Stage
|
Description
|
1
|
Enterprise has no product revenue to date and limited expense history, and typically an incomplete management team with an idea, plan, and possibly some initial product development. Typically, seed capital or first-round financing is provided during this stage by friends and family, angels, or venture capital firms focusing on early-stage enterprises, and the securities issued to those investors are occasionally in the form of common stock but are more commonly in the form of preferred stock.
|
2
|
Enterprise has no product revenue but substantive expense history, as product development is under way and business challenges are thought to be understood. Typically, a second or third round of financing occurs during this stage. Typical investors are venture capital firms, which may provide additional management or broad of directors expertise. The typical securities issued to those investors are in the form of preferred stock.
|
3
|
Enterprise has made significant progress in product development; key development milestones have been met (for example, hiring of a management team); and development is near completion (for example, alpha and beta testing), but generally there is no product revenue. Typically, later rounds of financing occur during this stage. Typical investors are venture capital firms and strategic business partners. The typical securities issued to those investors are in the form of preferred stock.
|
4
|
Enterprise has met additional key development milestones (for example, first customer orders, first revenue shipments) and has some product revenue, but is still operating at a loss. Typically, mezzanine rounds of financing occur during this stage. Also, it is frequently in this stage that discussions would start with investment banks for an IPO.
|
5
|
Enterprise has product revenue and has recently achieved breakthrough measures of financial success such as operating profitability or breakeven or positive cash flows. A liquidity event of some sort, such as an IPO or a sale of the enterprise, could occur in this stage. The form of securities issued is typically all common stock, with any outstanding preferred converting to common upon an IPO (and perhaps also upon other liquidity events).15
|
6
|
Enterprise has an established financial history of profitable operation or generation of positive cash flows. An IPO could also occur during this stage.15
|
Based on the above guidelines, we have classified Radio Loyalty as a Stage 4 firm. The AICPA practice guide suggests that two methods are appropriate for determining the enterprise value of firms in Radio Loyalty’s stage of business development- discounted cash flow and the method of comparables.7 The table below summarizes when each accepted valuation approach should be used.

Table 4-2: Valuation Approaches for Different Stages of Business Development
Source: AICPA Practice Guide
Valuation Approach
|
Stages or Circumstances For Which Approach Is Typically Appropriate or Not Appropriate
|
|
Market
|
The market approach typically increases in applicability and feasibility as an enterprise progresses through the middle stages and enters later stages of it development (for example, as an enterprise passes through Stages 3 through 6). It is unlikely that comparable enterprises with readily determinable fair values will be identified during earlier stages. Investments by friends, family, or angels in shares of the enterprise’s stock, which typically occur during earlier stages, are unlikely to be reliable indicators of fair value. All investments in shares of the enterprise’s stock should be examined to determine any synergistic value that may be associated with those investments (which would
ordinarily be factored out of a fair value determination; see paragraph 59).
|
|
Income
|
The income approach typically is applied to later-stage enterprises (for example, Stages 3 through 6) as opposed to early-stage enterprises because there is a greater likelihood at later stages of there being a financial history on which to base a forecast of future results.
|
|
Asset-based
|
Historically, the asset-based approach (using replacement cost) has been applied primarily to enterprises in Stage 1 and some enterprises in Stage 2. The asset-based approach would typically be applied under any of the following circumstances:
|
|
● |
There is a limited (or no) basis for using the income or market approaches. That is, there are no comparable market transactions, and the enterprise has virtually no financial history and consequently is unable to use past results to reasonably support a forecast of future results.
|
|
● |
The enterprise has not yet developed a product, although a patent application may be pending.
|
|
● |
A relatively small amount of cash has been invested.
|
|
The use of the asset-based approach is generally less appropriate once an enterprise has generated significant intangibles and internal goodwill. The generation of these intangibles often starts to gain momentum in the middle stages of the enterprise’s development and continues to build through the later stages. |
The market approach is based on the use of comparable public firms or comparable transactions as the basis for determining the value of the target firm. Comparable transactions include the acquisition of both public and private firms that are similar to the target firm. In both cases, a valuation metric is chosen, like enterprise value to revenue for example. This metric is calculated for the sample of comparable firms, and then either the average or median value, adjusted for target firm characteristics, is used to value the target firm. The income method is based on developing projections of free cash flows and discounting these projections by the cost of capital. Based on Radio Loyalty’s stage
of business development, Axiom concluded that both the income and market methods are appropriate for valuing Radio Loyalty.
Risk versus Return
Important factors in determining the value of a company are the growth in operating profits and the rate of return that investors require. The rate of return investors require depends on a number of factors that relate to how risky they believe the company to be. The greater the risk about the expected operating profits growth, the greater the return investors require to compensate them for taking this risk. Financial research shows that a portfolio of risky stocks has returned on average 6.62% more per year than a long-term Treasury Bond. This incremental return is the reward that investors receive for taking the risk of investing in risky assets like a portfolio of stocks, rather
than in risk-less Treasury bonds. To value Radio Loyalty, we must calculate its cost of capital. This is the return investors would require, if the firm were a public company. An adjustment for the fact that this firm is a private company is made later in the form of a marketability discount.

Calculating the Firm-Specific Cost of Capital
In order to estimate an appropriate equity rate of return, we use the modified Capital Asset Pricing Model (“CAPM”) which is defined below.
ke | = | kf + β(RP) + ks + kfsp | |
Where: | |||
ke | = | Return on equity | |
kf | = | Risk-free rate | |
Β | = | Beta | |
RP | = | Market risk premium | |
ks | = | Size premium | |
kfsp | = | Firm specific risk premium |
In addition to the market risk premium and the size premium, we also take into account firm specific risk. Firm specific risk reflects the fact that investors can not easily diversify away from the unique risks that investing in the firm poses. The table below shows Radio Loyalty’s cost of capital.

Table 4-3: Calculating the Cost of Capital for Radio Loyalty
Source: Axiom
The size premium represents the additional return investors require because, all else equal, smaller firms are perceived to be riskier that larger firm equivalents. The source noted in the table above covers this topic extensively. The firm specific premium for Radio Loyalty reflects the fact that investors cannot fully diversify away the unique risks that characterize Radio Loyalty and so investors require an appropriate reward for taking this risk.8 The debt to equity ratio used in the cost of capital calculation is the average D/E ratio of Pandora and Sirius. Radio Loyalty operates similarly to these two
comps and Axiom determined this best reflects the optimal capital structure of such firm.
The discounted cash flow analysis is based on management’s projections consistent with informed investor’s expectations. The basis for the analysis is shown in the following table. Detailed calculations associated with the results are presented in Appendix C.

Appendix D: Industry Overview9
Executive Summary
The Radio Broadcasting industry is struggling to retain its relevance and audience because of competition from digital media. The industry suffers particularly due to its limited interaction with listeners and heavy reliance on advertising. Before the recession, radio stations benefited from being a long-standing part of advertising budgets, and revenue peaked at $20.0 billion in 2006. When the recession took hold in 2008, companies in many sectors slashed advertising budgets and continued lowering them through 2010. Radio advertising was hit particularly hard as companies focused more on maintaining a TV presence and growing their footprint online. IBISWorld estimates that industry revenue will decline at an
average annual rate of 3.7% during the five years to 2012, including a modest decrease of 0.3% in 2012 to bring revenue to $16.9 billion.
The decline in radio advertising led many radio stations to write down losses in assets. It also forced many broadcasters to restructure operations to minimize losses. To make matters worse, competition from other media outlets has increased, especially with streaming media development and the increasing capacity of portable music players. The costs of restructuring combined with competition pulled profit down to 4.8% of 2012 revenue, representing a decline from 7.0% in 2007. Still, technology has also helped the industry: Satellite and digital radio have become more prevalent since 2007. These formats offer consumers high-quality audio and a wider music selection that is comparable to other digital music
formats.
The economy is projected to recover during the five years to 2017, and advertising budgets will follow. The industry is well established within many companies’ media mixes, and radio’s role will not be eliminated overnight. Instead, it will diminish slowly as companies dedicate more resources to reaching consumers online. Also, a new law may force radio broadcasters to pay performers a fee for playing their music. If this performance tax is enacted, it will lead to further industry restructuring. Amid these uncertainties, IBISWorld projects that revenue will grow at an average annual rate of 1.6% to $18.3 billion during the five years to 2017.
Key External Drivers
Per capita disposable income
Trends in real household disposable income are affected by the rate of employment growth and from interest and tax rate changes. This factor directly affects advertising expenditure on the radio because corporations are most likely to spend money on advertising when their advertising can stimulate sales in the short term. As a result, when consumers have higher disposable income, advertisers are most likely to advertise on the radio. This driver is expected to increase slowly during 2012, representing a potential opportunity for the industry.

Total US advertising expenditure
The industry is significantly affected by trends in advertising expenditure and demand from the allocations that advertising agencies budget for their clients. As the economy continues to improve, advertising expenditure will also grow, resulting in steady growth over the next few years. This driver is expected to increase during 2012.
Total vehicle miles
The industry is affected by the amount of time that people spend in their cars because between 30.0% and 60.0% of radio listening occurs in cars. The industry is also affected by current convergence of media, telecommunications and information technology and the emergence of new digital media that can be used in cars. This driver is expected to increase slowly in 2012 as job creation gradually ramps up and causes more people to spend time commuting.
Number of broadband connections
The increasing presence of low-power radio stations and online radio will potentially fragment the markets for this industry and lead to higher competition. New technologies also have the potential to alter the way that people listen to music on a daily basis. This driver is expected to increase during 2012, creating a potential threat to the industry.
Current Performance
Radio broadcasters were already fending off competition from podcasts, MP3 players and streaming radio by the time the recession took hold in 2008. During the downturn, radio’s struggles were exacerbated when companies that purchase commercials made drastic cuts to their advertising budgets. This trend crippled the Radio Broadcasting industry, which relies on ad buying for about 90.0% of its revenue. Major companies like Clear Channel, Sirius XM and Citadel were forced to restructure in response to the harsh operating environment. (Radio stations that operate exclusively online, such as Pandora, are excluded from this industry.) IBISWorld estimates revenue to decline at an average annual rate of 3.7% to
total $16.9 billion over the five years to 2012, but higher advertising spending is expected to keep revenue decline to 0.3% in 2012.
Depressed operations
Radio stations throughout the United States recorded crushing reductions to the value of their licenses and business operations from 2008 to 2010. The decline in advertising revenue resulted in deep operating losses for many radio broadcasting companies. For instance, Citadel had an operating loss of 118.0% of revenue, pushing the company into bankruptcy by the end of 2009. The tumultuous operating conditions spurred a flurry of write downs, mergers and other restructuring activities. Because of the costs associated with restructuring, industry profit margins fell from 7.0% in 2007 to an estimated 4.8% in 2012.

Nevertheless, the industry began recovering in 2011. A prime example of the industry’s improving fortunes is Cumulus’ purchase of Citadel less than a year after Citadel’s exit from Chapter 11 bankruptcy. The acquisition also confirms that a larger network of stations is more able to face the industry’s particular challenges.
Advertising dip led to restructuring
A large network of stations is able to operate most effectively in this industry because most stations have two advertising revenue channels. Local sales teams drive the bulk of advertising revenue, which stems from local sources, while another sales team represents each radio network nationally. Consolidation eliminates the number of sales teams needed on both levels, decreasing the cost of operations. Merging allows for other ways to boost efficiency, such as sharing broadcasting or recording equipment.
Low spending on advertising throughout the recession forced radio broadcasters to slim down operations to survive. Imminent bankruptcy was also a significant driver behind the 2008 merger of satellite radio companies Sirius and XM. Meanwhile, persistent losses forced Clear Channel, which was purchased by a private equity group in 2008, to sell a significant number of broadcasting stations, mostly to its chief competitors.
Consolidation and restructuring caused a fundamental shift in industry operations. Since 2007, the number of industry establishments has declined at an average yearly rate of 3.7%, and employment fell at an average annual rate of 3.0%. With a total of 8,784 establishments and 107,351 employees in 2012, the industry is operating with relatively low capital.
Expanding radio’s reach
Through incorporating digital signals, radio broadcasters are expanding the industry’s reach. Many radio stations are adopting high-definition (HD) radio, which they transmit digitally. This technology improves the quality and strength of radio signals, thus increasing the reach of radio station transmissions. Furthermore, more mobile devices, such as cell phones and music players, receive these digital signals. This innovation has greatly eased radio access for a variety of audiences. As a result, HD radio boosts the attractiveness of radio to advertisers. According to media and marketing research firm Arbitron’s 2012 study (entitled “The Infinite Dial”), about 29.0% of Americans listen to
online radio in 2012, compared to just 22.0% in 2011 and only 11.0% in 2007.
Most broadcasters adopted the radio data system (RDS) over the past five years, which further enhanced radio’s capabilities. RDS sends out a signal to devices that identifies the title and artist of the song being played, enabling listeners to easily identify what they are listening to. By adopting these technologies, the Radio Broadcasting industry is improving its user-friendliness and securing its spot in an environment where different media are becoming increasingly interconnected.

Industry Outlook
In the coming years, radio broadcasters will face increasing competition from online streaming radio, podcasts and portable music players. Many firms will struggle to compete for limited advertising dollars, resulting in continued consolidation. IBISWorld anticipates a recovery for the industry, but only in comparison to the steep declines it experienced between 2008 and 2010. Satellite radio companies may come out ahead as their subscription-based, commercial-free and premium content enables them to gain market share.
IBISWorld forecasts that the Radio Broadcasting industry’s revenue will grow at an average annual rate of 1.6% through 2017, including a 2.4% increase in 2013. The $18.3 billion in revenue anticipated for 2017 will be well below the peak in 2006 because the industry will continue to lose listeners to MP3 players and other digital media. As a result, profit will remain low and stations will continue to restructure.
Consolidation
The most likely acquisition targets are local and independent stations because companies looking to buy radio ads prefer “one-stop shops” that reach a wider geographic area than lone radio stations. Additionally, multiple stations help reduce transaction costs and benefit from economies of scale in management time and in negotiating equipment and other purchasing costs. As a result, larger companies have a higher likelihood of profitability and staying in business. Larger mergers, following that of Cumulus and Citadel (pending its approval), are also a real possibility as radio stations struggle to remain relevant to consumers and advertisers alike.
Restructuring will coincide with a decrease in employment opportunities within the industry. As companies merge operations, they will combine sales departments and reduce employee numbers. Over the five years to 2017, IBISWorld anticipates that industry employment will grow an average of just 0.1% each year to about 107,794 people in 2017.
Slow Recovery
Radio commercials have long been a staple in advertising budgets. As part of the status quo, the industry held its ground when alternate forms of media began to emerge in the early 2000s. But companies in most sectors slashed advertising budgets in 2008, and budgets stayed low through 2010. While economic recovery is projected to result in a 2.1% annualized increase in advertising spending through the next five years, radio can no longer expect its share of the pie to remain untouched.

During the recession, smaller local companies were the first to cut advertising spending, but as sentiment improves, they are anticipated to become the main source of radio funding. Unlike national firms, these companies are less able to find comparable alternatives to reaching a local audience. For example, it is more difficult to target the majority of residents within a specific town on the internet versus on a local radio station. A focus on local events may give broadcasters an advantage with advertisement pricing because local advertising often makes up the majority of a radio station’s revenue.
Advertising will remain the dominant revenue stream for radio stations, but it will likely remain restricted as companies focus on a wider media blend. The gradual recovery started in 2011 and will expand advertising budgets over the next five years, with radio revenue getting a corresponding boost through higher prices for commercials. The industry will also experience a rise in listeners, as falling unemployment causes Americans to spend more time in their cars and at work, where they are most likely to tune in. Larger audiences will contribute to expected 0.8% annualized growth in the number of companies to 6,398 in 2017. An increased audience will also help radio broadcasters bring in more advertising
revenue.
Spotlight on satellite
Throughout the industry’s slow rebound, satellite radio may emerge as a strong force. A merger during the economic downturn allowed the two main satellite radio companies, Sirius and XM, to avoid bankruptcy. The merger resulted in a new company, Sirius XM Radio. Satellite radio’s dual revenue streams of advertising and subscription fees have already given the company an edge. The stability of this business model allows satellite radio firms to combine resources and cut down on redundant programming and overhead costs, leading to higher profit margins.
Sirius XM weathered the economic storm better than radio stations that rely solely on advertising by growing its subscriber base, which rose 8.0% in 2011 alone. In comparison, traditional radio audience numbers stagnated over the past five years. The company’s flourishing subscriber base can be attributed to the superior content it delivers. Satellite radio delivers higher-quality audio and premium talk-radio content that can compete with podcasts and commercial-free music channels. As a result, it can successfully hold up to the threat of MP3 players and other emerging digital media. IBISWorld anticipates that satellite radio will continue to gain traction and expand its market share from about 16.0% of
revenue in 2012 to about 20.5% by 2017.

Appendix E: The U.S Economic Outlook10
General Overview
The contours of the global economy have changed dramatically in the last twelve months. Economic slowdowns in China, India, and Brazil coupled with financial fractures in the Euro zone, leaves the U.S. as one of the few economies that will be on an upward growth trajectory in the next six to twelve months. Although the U.S. economic recovery is modest by any measure of economic performance, two factors have developed that are likely to generate significant incremental economic demand over the next two years. The primary driver is the degree of excess inflation adjusted liquidity available to support the purchase of goods and services which in turn will drive employment. The second factor relates to the credit
system which was severely damaged in the financial crisis and now has recovered allowing the excess liquidity to find its way to various parts of the capital markets. While housing has been a weak spot for some time, the bottom has been reached. Demand for housing will increase substantially over the next eighteen months, giving rise to strong demand for related consumer durables. In short, the economic expansion will likely increase at a faster pace during the second half of 2012 than in any time during the economic recovery to this point.
This more upbeat view will not likely be side tracked by election year politics or short-term factors impacting the price of oil which has increased significantly, driven by the Iranian trade embargo. Interest rates, which remain at historically low levels, will not increase significantly between now and year end. Inflation will also be contained. While faster pace economic activity is usually associated with rising inflation, this will not be the case in 2012. The central reason is that global demand will not be pressing up against global capacity. Put differently, national economic cycles are not in sync which reduces price pressures globally as weaker economies supply needed resources to economies that are
expanding relatively faster. The U.S. economy is the primary beneficiary of these developments.
The upshot is that real economic growth in 2012 will be about 3.0% with growth in 2013 registering 3.6%. First, the growth in excess real liquidity (real M2 growth less its two year moving average) continues to expand at a rapid pace. This development always translates to a period of sustained real economic growth. Second, C&I loans have been increasing since August of 2011 indicating that the banking system has returned to a more healthy condition. Recent stress tests appear to support this conclusion. These factors normally support above trend economic growth.
The unemployment rate will fall below 8% by year-end. We expect inflation to stay below 2% for the remainder of 2012 but begin to increase during the first half of 2013 as inflationary expectations associated with renewed global expansion take hold. Both short- and long-term rates will begin rising during the first half of 2013, with long rates increasing by more than short rates.

Although there has been flight to the dollar, we view this as a relatively short-term phenomenon. In the longer term, we expect the dollar to depreciate against a market basket of currencies. There are three main factors driving this. The first is the increase in dollar availability associated with Fed actions. The second is a continuation by the world’s central banks of diversifying their reserve base away from the dollar. The Yuan, which currently is loosely pegged to the dollar, has begun to trade, which means it is only a matter of time before the Yuan becomes part of the global reserve base. The dollar will continue to be the dominant reserve currency, but its status will
diminish.
At this juncture, the major risks to this outlook are predominately political. The first takes the form of potential military hostilities with Iran being the major protagonist. The second emanates from the perceived fallout from global capital flows and open markets which place enormous pressures on U.S. business to compete. The inability and/or unwillingness of U.S. businesses to compete in a global market accompanied by lack of sustained employment growth creates incentives for affected constituencies to petition the government to protect them, at least temporarily, by limiting imports, restricting outsourcing to lower-wage countries, and preventing or limiting foreign ownership of U.S. assets.
In an election year with both political parties not inclined to cooperate on defining issues like taxes and the size of government, there is little that the public sector can do other than wait until we know the outcome of the Presidential election. Monetary easing by the Federal Reserve will do little to promote additional real growth given the economy is already awash with liquidity, and interest rates are already at historically low levels. Although the rest of the world is still dependent on U.S. economic activity, it is far less dependent than in the past. Developing economies in Asia and South America are expanding organically, albeit at a slower rate than last year, creating a demand for U.S. goods and
services. We expect demand from developing countries to be a major economic force going forward.

Real consumption expenditures will pick up momentum in 2012 as real incomes increase with expected increases in employment. We expect this to continue through 2013 and beyond. Residential construction spending declined in 2011, but we expect it to register substantive growth in 2012 and over the longer term. Non-residential investment will expand in 2012, led by equipment and software investment. New industrial and commercial building investment will expand in 2012. Outsourcing and the use of the internet, which allows workers to collaborate at a distance, have reduced the need to expand office space as the economy has expanded. In the long run, these developments will be less operative, and
new industrial and office space will be required to house an expanding workforce.
Economic expansion will result in a widening trade deficit as imports continue to expand faster than exports. Dollar weakness will provide some impetus to exports and place upward pressure on import prices and hence inflation.
Table 3-3 below shows the inflation forecast for GDP and its components.
Table 3-3: Inflation Forecast
Source: Winter/Spring 2012 Economic Forecast
The global energy picture has changed significantly in the last eighteen months. New sources of gas in the lower 48 have resulted in a major decline in natural gas prices. We expect that this incremental supply will moderate any upward price pressure emanating from substantial incremental demand for natural gas resulting from major energy users switching to natural gas from other sources like coal. Coal prices will likely decline as utilities and others move to cleaner and relatively less expensive energy sources. Oil prices will likely decline over the next several years, the current price run-up notwithstanding. Increased oil production from Canada will find its way to the U.S. In addition, technological
advances that have reshaped the natural gas sector are also boosting domestic oil supply. In short, significant energy-induced inflation is not likely over the next several years even with the uptick in global economic growth that we expect by year end 2013.

Both short-term and long-term interest rates were at historically low levels in 2011, reflecting the extent of the economic weakness, an easing Fed policy, and increased funding to financial institutions. As the economy begins to recover, we expect rates to rise, with long rates reflecting an increase in expected inflation in response to a relatively easy monetary policy and a depreciating dollar.
Summary
The U.S. economy will register stronger growth going forward than it did in the earlier years of the current economic expansion. Inflation and interest rates will increase but in the near-term these increases will likely be moderate.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE PERIOD FROM INCEPTION (NOVEMBER 30, 2011)
THROUGH MAY 31, 2012
NOTE 1 - NATURE OF BUSINESS
RadioLoyalty, Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated on November 30, 2011 under the laws of the State of California. The Company’s business model and technology is the result of several years of innovation and development by its controlling shareholders. The Company aggregates, organizes and monetizes advertising opportunities within the Internet and terrestrial radio broadcasting sector. The Company currently contracts with over 1,000 radio broadcasters. These customers are provided with free Internet streaming for their audio broadcasts in exchange for a revenue sharing arrangement whereby the Company manages each radio broadcaster’s Internet and mobile advertising. The Company
offers advertisers highly targeted audiences across the Company’s entire radio broadcaster listenership. Advertisements are generally in video and display formats. Additionally, the Company contracts for Internet bandwidth across the entire radio broadcaster network, manages its own hosting facility and co-hosts another facility in order to optimizes the data processing.
NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Fiscal Year
The Company’s fiscal year end is August 31. References to 2012, for example, refer to the fiscal year ending August 31, 2012.
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary in order for the financial statements to be not misleading have been reflected herein. The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.
Going Concern
The Company’s financial statements are prepared using accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America applicable to a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. For the period from inception, November 30, 2011, through May 31, 2012, the Company recorded a net loss of $45,626. The net loss indicates that the Company may have difficulty in continuing as a going concern.
Management is confident that additional capital can be raised in order to support marketing costs, content costs and media buying costs associated with management’s short-term business plan. From May 31, 2012 through August 31, 2012, the Company has successfully raised a significant amount of capital. However, the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on the successful execution of the business plan in order to reach break-even and become profitable. If the Company is unable to become profitable, the Company could be forced to modify its business operations or possibly cease operations entirely. Management cannot provide any assurances that the
Company will be successful in its operations. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.
F-4
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statement and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from the estimates.
Financial Instruments
The Financial Accounting Standards Board issued ASC (Accounting Standards Codification) 820-10 (SFAS No. 157), “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” for financial assets and liabilities. ASC 820-10 provides a framework for measuring fair value and requires expanded disclosures regarding fair value measurements. FASB ASC 820-10 defines fair value as the price that would be received for an asset or the exit price that would be paid to transfer a liability in the principal or most advantageous market in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. FASB ASC
820-10 also establishes a fair value hierarchy that requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs, where available. The following summarizes the three levels of inputs required by the standard that the Company uses to measure fair value:
Level 1: Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities
|
Level 2: Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the related assets or liabilities.
|
Level 3: Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.
|
The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, accounts payable and accrued expenses. The carrying amounts of such financial instruments as of May 31, 2012 were determined according to the following inputs:

Cash Equivalents
For purposes of reporting cash flows, the Company considers all short-term investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
Accounts Receivable
The Company’s accounts receivable are trade receivables from advertising partners and advertising networks. The Company expects to collect the receivables within 90 days of the invoicing date. An allowance for doubtful accounts has been established at zero, based on collection experience since November 30, 2011.
Property & Equipment
Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and depreciated using straight-line methods over the estimated useful lives of the related assets ranging from 15 months to 3 years. Maintenance and repairs are expensed currently. Any significant improvement that extends the useful life of existing assets is capitalized. When equipment is retired or disposed, the costs and related accumulated depreciation are eliminated and the resulting profit or loss is recognized in income.
Capitalized Software
Costs related to certain software and website development activities are expensed as incurred (such as planning and operating stage activities) in accordance with ASC 350-40, Internal Use Software. Costs relating to certain website application and infrastructure development are generally capitalized, and are amortized over their estimated useful lives, generally three years.
Management evaluates the useful lives of its websites and capitalized software on an annual basis and tests for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances occur that could impact the recoverability of these assets.
The Company capitalized $164,557, respectively, of software during the period from inception, November 30, 2011, through May 31, 2012. Amortization expense associated with software totaled $17,215 and $0 during the period from inception, November 30, 2011, through May 31, 2012.
Long-lived Assets
The Company accounts for long-lived assets under the FASB (Financial Accounting Standards Board) ASC (Accounting Standard Codification) 340-10 Other Assets and Deferred Costs, (SFAS 142 and 144): “Accounting for Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets” and “Accounting for Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets”). In accordance with ASC 340-10, long-lived assets, goodwill and certain identifiable intangible assets held and used by the Company are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in
circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset will not be recoverable. For purposes of evaluating the recoverability of long-lived assets, goodwill and intangible assets, the recoverability test is performed using undiscounted net cash flows related to the long-lived assets.
F-6
Debt Discount
The Company has routinely issued convertible promissory notes since its inception, November 30, 2011 and through August 31, 2012. In connection with each issuance, the Company issued stock warrants. The value of the stock warrants and the beneficial conversion feature associated with the conversion option of each convertible promissory note are recorded upon issuance as a reduction of the convertible promissory note principal and an increase to additional paid in capital. The debt discount is then amortized over the term of the convertible promissory note. Amortization is classified as interest expense.
Revenue Recognition
Revenues are recorded when earned. The Company enters into third party advertising contracts with certain advertising partners, affiliates, networks and agencies. Contract pricing is determined on a case-by-case basis and depends on the perceived quality of the target audience. The quality of the audience is perceived by the advertiser based on a number of attributes but is primarily focused on the size of the target audience in addition to how well the attributes of that audience match the profile of the potential customer the advertisement was designed to reach.
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes using the liability method prescribed by ASC 740, “Income Taxes.” Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the difference between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates that will be in effect in the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. The Company records a valuation allowance to offset deferred tax assets if based on the weight of available evidence, it is more-likely-than-not that some portion, or all, of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The effect on deferred taxes of a change in tax
rates is recognized as income or loss in the period that includes the enactment date.
The Company applied the provisions of ASC 000-00-00, “Accounting For Uncertainty In Income Taxes”, which provides clarification related to the process associated with accounting for uncertain tax positions recognized in our financial statements. Audit periods remain open for review until the statute of limitations has passed. The completion of review or the expiration of the statute of limitations for a given audit period could result in an adjustment to the Company’s liability for income taxes. Any such adjustment could be material to the Company’s results of operations for any given quarterly or annual period based, in part, upon the results of operations for the given period.
As of May 31, 2012, the Company had no uncertain tax positions, and will continue to evaluate for uncertain positions in the future.
The Company generated a deferred tax credit through net operating loss carryforward of approximately $149,000. However, a valuation allowance of 100% has been established.
Interest and penalties on tax deficiencies recognized in accordance with ASC accounting standards are classified as income taxes in accordance with ASC Topic 000-00-00-00.
F-7
Comprehensive Income
The Company established standards for reporting and display of comprehensive income, its components and accumulated balances. When applicable, the Company would disclose this information on its Statement of Stockholder’s Equity. Comprehensive income comprises equity except those resulting from investments by owners and distributions to owners. The Company has not had any transactions that are required to be reported in other comprehensive income.
Basic and Diluted Net Loss Per Share
Basic loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted net loss per common share is computed similar to basic net loss per common share except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the potential common shares had been issued and if the additional common shares were dilutive. As of May 31, 2012, the Company had outstanding convertible debt and warrants to purchase common stock that were convertible into approximately 550,000 and 375,000 shares of the Company’s common stock based
on a conversion price of $0.50, respectively. These stock equivalents were anti-dilutive and have been excluded in the diluted net loss per share computation for each period presented.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
The Company does not expect the adoption of recently issued accounting pronouncements to have a significant impact on the results of its operations, financial position or cash flow.
NOTE 3 – PENDING GOING PUBLIC TRANSACTION AND ONE-TIME DIVIDEND
On May 16, 2012, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer executed a stock purchase agreement (the “SPA”) with Lux Digital Pictures, Inc. (“Lux”), a company that is publicly-traded on the Over-the-Counter stock market in the United States of America. The SPA provided for a contribution of assets by the Chief Executive Officer, namely the WatchthisTM software. The WatchthisTM software was previously owned by the Company and was distributed to the Chief Executive Officer as a $83,020 one-time-dividend on May 16, 2012 in order to
satisfy certain conditions of the SPA. The SPA caused the Chief Executive Officer to become the controlling shareholder of Lux subject to his obligation to execute a transaction whereby the Company is acquired by Lux and becomes a wholly-owned subsidiary of Lux by October 1, 2012. As a result of the SPA, and assuming the transactions contemplated by the SPA occur as planned, the Company will control Lux, thereby becoming a public company.

NOTE 9 – PROMISSORY NOTES
On December 1, 2011, the Company issued a convertible promissory note for $100,000 to an entity controlled by the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Operating Officer, respectively. In exchange for the issuance of the convertible promissory note, the Company received $54,900 in cash and computer hardware valued at $45,100. The convertible promissory note bears 4% interest, is convertible into the Company’s common stock at a $0.50 conversion price and matures on December 1, 2014. The Company recorded a beneficial conversion feature of $11,213 in connection with this financing. A total of 50,000 warrants were issued in connection with this financing. The warrants were valued at $5,213,
have a three-year term, and are exercisable at a price of $0.50.
On January 27, 2012, the Company issued a convertible promissory note for $50,000 to an unrelated party (the “Creditor”). The convertible promissory note bears 4% interest, is convertible into the Company’s common stock at a $0.50 conversion price and matures on January 27, 2015. The Company recorded a beneficial conversion feature of $5,607 in connection with this financing. A total of 25,000 warrants were issued in connection with this financing. The warrants were valued at $2,607, have a three-year term, and are exercisable at a price of $0.50.
On March 22, 2012, the Company issued a convertible promissory note for $125,000 to an entity controlled by the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and an unrelated party, respectively. In exchange for the issuance of the convertible promissory note, the Company acquired the software and sourcecode for the WatchthisTM computer software. As a result of this transaction being completed with an entity controlled by the Chief Executive Officer, the WatchthisTM software and sourcecode were recorded in the Company’s books at historical cost. Costs
consisted of software development fees, domain purchase costs and legal fees associated with patent filings. The convertible promissory note bears 4% interest, is convertible into the Company’s common stock at a $0.50 conversion price and matures on March 22, 2015. The Company recorded a beneficial conversion feature of $14,017 in connection with this financing. A total of 62,500 warrants were issued in connection with this financing. The warrants were valued at $6,517, have a three-year term, and are exercisable at a price of $0.50.
The valuation of the stock warrants and the beneficial conversion feature associated with each issuance of convertible promissory notes utilized valuation inputs and related figures provided by a professional and independent valuation firm.
The conversion feature associated with the convertible promissory notes provide for a rate of conversion that is below market value. This conversion feature is accounted for as a beneficial conversion feature. A beneficial conversion feature was recorded by the Company and classified as a debt discount on the balance sheet at the time of issuance of each convertible promissory note with a corresponding credit to additional paid-in capital. The value is amortized over the three-year term of the convertible promissory. The amortized value for each period is recorded as an offset against the debt discount on the balance sheet, classified as interest expense in the statement of operations and as accretion of
debt discount within the statement of cashflows. The following table reflects the balance in convertible promissory notes as of May 31, 2012:
