We were formed to develop and sell greeting cards. We have not generated any revenues to date; we have been issued a "substantial doubt" going concern opinion from our auditors; and our only asset is our cash in the bank, consisting of $9,841, the balance of cash generated from the issuance of shares to our founders. We are planning to develop and sell a collection of greeting cards and if the initial collection is successful and when revenues are sufficient to support expansion, we will expand the collection of cards. Our administrative offices are located at 127 East 18th Ave., Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, V5V 1E4. This is the home of our President and sole director, Nicole Milkovich and the office is provided to us rent free. Our registered statutory office is located at 711 S. Carson Street, Suite 4, Carson City, Nevada 89701. Our fiscal year end is January 31. The Offering - ------------ Following is a brief summary of this offering. Please see the Plan of Distribution; Terms of the Offering section for a more detailed description of the terms of the offering. Securities Being Offered 1,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $.001. Offering Price per Share $.025 Offering Period The shares are being offered for a period not to exceed 180 days, unless extended by our Board of Directors for an additional 90 days. In the event we do not raise the proceeds before the expiration date of the offering, all funds raised will be returned promptly to the subscribers without deductions or interest. Net Proceeds to Our Company $ 19,000 5 Use of Proceeds We intend to use the proceeds to pay for offering expenses and to generally implement our business operations. Number of Shares Outstanding Before the Offering: 2,000,000 Number of Shares Outstanding After the Offering: 3,000,000 Our officers, directors, control persons and affiliates will not purchase any shares in this offering. RISK FACTORS ============= An investment in these securities involves an exceptionally high degree Of risk and is extremely speculative in nature. In addition to the other information regarding our company contained in this prospectus, you should consider many important factors in determining whether to purchase shares. Following are what we believe are all of the material risks involved if you decide to purchase shares in this offering. RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH OUR COMPANY: ================================== Since we are a development stage company, have generated no revenues and lack an operating history, an investment in the shares offered herein is highly risky and could result in a complete loss of your investment if we are unsuccessful in our business plans. - ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Our company was incorporated in November 2004; we have just recently commenced the development of the initial greeting card collection; and we have not yet realized any revenues. We have no operating history upon which an evaluation of our future prospects can be made. Such prospects must be considered in light of the substantial risks, expenses and difficulties encountered by new entrants into the highly competitive greeting card industry. Our ability to achieve and maintain profitability and positive cash flow is highly dependent upon a number of factors, including our ability to attract and retain customers for our greeting cards, while keeping costs to a minimum. Based upon current plans, we expect to incur operating losses in future periods as we incur expenses associated with the initial startup of our business. Further, we cannot guarantee that we will be successful in realizing revenues or in achieving or sustaining positive cash flow at any time in the future. Any such failure could result in the possible closure of our operations or force us to seek additional capital through loans or additional sales of our equity securities to continue business operations, which would dilute the value of any shares you purchase in this offering. 6 We are totally dependent on the proceeds from this offering to implement our proposed business plans. We do not have any other sources of funding and may be unable to find any such funding, if and when needed, which could severely limit any possible revenues and result in a failure of our business and a total loss of your investment. - ----------------------------------------------------------------------- We are planning to use the proceeds of this offering to complete the design and production of our initial greeting card line. Other than the shares offered by this prospectus, no other source of capital has been identified or sought. We expect expenses for the first year following receipt of the proceeds from this offering to be approximately $23,000, or 92% of the total offering proceeds, which will only allow us to develop our initial collection of cards. There can be no assurance that we will be able to raise additional funding, if we do not generate sufficient revenues, to fully implement our business plans and develop and sell a more expansive collection of greeting cards. Our auditors have expressed substantial doubt as to our ability to continue as a going concern. We cannot predict when or if we will produce revenues, which could result in a total loss of your investment if we are unsuccessful in our business plans. - -------------------------------------------------------------------- We just commenced operations and are developing our initial collection of greeting cards. As such, we have not yet realized any revenues from operations. In order for us to continue with our plans and develop and sell our greeting cards, we must raise our initial capital through this offering. The timing of the completion of the milestones needed to commence operations and generate revenues is contingent on the success of this offering. There can be no assurance that we will generate revenues or that revenues will be sufficient to maintain our business. As a result, you could lose all of your investment if you decide to purchase shares in this offering and we are not successful in our proposed business plans. Since our success depends upon the efforts of Nicole Milkovich, the key member of our management, our failure to retain Nicole Milkovich will negatively affect our business, operating results and financial results. - --------------------------------------------------------------------- Our business is greatly dependent on the efforts of our President, Nicole Milkovich. We have no full time employees and only two part-time employees, Nicole Milkovich and Carlos Bolbrugge, our officers and directors, neither of whom are compensated for their services. Our success will also depend in large part upon our ability to attract, develop, motivate and retain highly skilled artistic and technical employees in order to expand our card collection from the initial line. Competition for qualified personnel in this industry is intense and we may not be able to hire or retain qualified personnel, if and when needed. We have not entered into a management agreement with Nicole Milkovich and the loss of her services could have a negative impact on our business operations, operating results and possible revenues. 7 Our officers and director have conflicts of interest in that they have other activities that will prevent them from devoting full-time to our operations, which may slow our operations and as a result may reduce our financial results. - ---------------------------------------------------------------- Our officers and director have conflicts of interest in that they have other activities that will prevent them from devoting full-time to our operations. Nicole Milkovich, our President, Secretary, Chief Financial Officer and sole Director will devote approximately 20 hours per week to our operations. Carlos Bolbrugge, our Vice President of Design, will devote approximately 10 hours per week to our operations. This may negatively affect our operations and reduce or limit our potential revenues and financial results. The greeting card industry is highly competitive and if our collection of cards are not well received and/or successful, we may be unable to generate revenues, which could result in a total loss of your investment. - ----------------------------------------------------------------- The greeting card industry is highly competitive with respect to price and quality of the cards, as well as the accessibility of the cards for consumers and, as a result, there is a high failure rate in the industry. There are numerous well-established competitors, including large international card companies, regional and local card companies possessing substantially greater financial, marketing, personnel and other resources than our company. There can be no assurance that we will be able to respond to all of the competitive factors affecting the card industry and successfully develop a greeting card line that will be well received and profitable. The greeting card industry is generally affected by changes in consumer preferences and national, regional and local economic conditions, as well as demographic trends. If we are unable to successfully produce and market our greeting card line and generate revenues, you could lose any investment you make in our securities. Because we do not currently have any patent or trademark protection for our greeting card line, there is no guarantee that someone else will not duplicate our ideas and bring them to market before we do or make a better product, either of which could severely limit our proposed sales and revenues. - ----------------------------------------------------------------------- We believe our greeting card line will be unique; however, we currently have no patents or trademarks for our designs or brand name. As business is established and operations expand, we may seek such protection; however, we currently have no plans to do so. Despite efforts to protect our proprietary rights, such as our designs and brand name, since we have no patent or trademark rights unauthorized persons may attempt to copy aspects of our business, including our designs, greeting cards and other proprietary information. Any encroachment upon our proprietary information, including the unauthorized use of our brand name, the use of a similar name by a competing company or a lawsuit initiated against us for infringement upon another company's proprietary information or improper use of their trademark, may affect our ability to create brand name recognition, cause customer confusion and/or have a detrimental 8 effect on our business. Litigation or proceedings before the U.S. or International Patent and Trademark Offices may be necessary in the future to enforce our intellectual property rights, to protect our trade secrets and domain name and/or to determine the validity and scope of the proprietary rights of others. Any such infringement, litigation or adverse proceeding could result in substantial costs and diversion of resources and could seriously harm our business operations and/or results of operations. RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH THIS OFFERING: ======================================= Buying low-priced penny stocks is very risky and speculative. - ------------------------------------------------------------ The shares being offered are defined as a penny stock under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, and rules of the Commission. The Exchange Act and such penny stock rules generally impose additional sales practice and disclosure requirements on broker-dealers who sell our securities to persons other than certain accredited investors who are, generally, institutions with assets in excess of $5,000,000 or individuals with net worth in excess of $1,000,000 or annual income exceeding $200,000, or $300,000 jointly with spouse), or in transactions not recommended by the broker-dealer. For transactions covered by the penny stock rules, a broker-dealer must make a suitability determination for each purchaser and receive the purchaser's written agreement prior to the sale. In addition, the broker-dealer must make certain mandated disclosures in penny stock transactions, including the actual sale or purchase price and actual bid and offer quotations, the compensation to be received by the broker-dealer and certain associated persons, and deliver certain disclosures required by the Commission. Consequently, the penny stock rules may affect the ability of broker-dealers to make a market in or trade our common stock and may also affect your ability to resell any shares you may purchase in this offering in the public markets. Due to the lack of a trading market for our securities, you may have difficulty selling any shares you purchase in this offering. - ------------------------------------------------------------------------- There is presently no demand for our common stock, as our securities are not listed for trading on any public market. While we do intend to apply for quotation in the Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board, we cannot guarantee that our application will be approved or that our securities will be listed and quoted on any public market. If no market is ever developed for our common stock, it will be difficult for you to sell any shares you purchase in this offering. In such a case, you may find that you are unable to achieve any benefit from your investment or liquidate your shares without considerable delay, if at all. In addition, if we fail to have our common stock quoted on a public trading market, your common stock will not have a quantifiable value and it may be difficult, if not impossible, to ever resell your shares, resulting in an inability to realize any value from your investment. 9 You will incur immediate and substantial dilution of the price you pay for your shares. - -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Our existing stockholders acquired their shares at a cost substantially less than that which you will pay for the shares you purchase in this offering. Accordingly, any investment you make in these shares will result in the immediate and substantial dilution of the net tangible book value of those shares from the $.025 you pay for them. Assuming we complete this offering and receive the net proceeds, the net tangible book value of your shares will be $.008 per share, substantially less than what you paid for them. Our officers and directors have voting control of our common stock, which could result in shareholder decisions being made on matters you may not agree with or that may not necessarily be of benefit to you as a shareholder. - ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Because our officers and directors control a large percentage of our common stock, they have the power to control our management and its decisions. Our officers and sole director together own a total of 2,000,000, which will be approximately 67% of our issued and outstanding common stock. As such, in accordance with provisions in our articles of incorporation and bylaws, they are able to control who is elected to our board of directors and thus could act, or could have the power to act, as our management. The interests of our officers and directors may not be, at all times, the same as that of our other shareholders. Where those conflicts exist, our shareholders will be dependent upon our officers and directors exercising, in a manner fair to all of our shareholders, their fiduciary duties as officers and directors. Also, these officers and directors will have the ability to significantly influence the outcome of most corporate actions requiring shareholder approval, including any possible change in business plans, merger of our company with or into another company, the sale of all or substantially all of our assets and/or amendments to our articles of incorporation, even though none of such events is planned or proposed. USE OF PROCEEDS =============== We have estimated the net proceeds to us from this offering to be $19,000. We expect to disburse these proceeds in the priority set forth below, during the first 12 months after completion of this offering:
Total Proceeds $ 25,000 Less: Estimated Offering Expenses 6,000 --------- Net Proceeds to Us: $ 19,000 --------- Administrative and Office 1,000 Supplies for initial inventory 2,000 Equipment 1,000 Accounting, auditing and Legal 8,000 Advertising and Marketing 5,000 Working Capital 2,000 --------- Total Net Proceeds $ 19,000
10 ========= DETERMINATION OF OFFERING PRICE =============================== The offering price of the shares has been determined arbitrarily by us. The price does not bear any relationship to our assets, book value, earnings, or other established criteria for valuing a privately held company. In determining the number of shares to be offered and the offering price we took into consideration our capital structure and the amount of money we would need to implement our business plans. Accordingly, the offering price should not be considered an indication of the actual value of our securities. DILUTION OF THE PRICE YOU PAY FOR YOUR SHARES ============================================= Dilution represents the difference between the offering price and the net tangible book value per share immediately after completion of this offering. Net tangible book value is the amount that results from subtracting total liabilities and intangible assets from total assets. Dilution arises mainly as a result of our arbitrary determination of the offering price of the shares being offered. Dilution of the value of the shares you purchase is also a result of the lower book value of the shares held by our existing stockholders. As of January 31, 2005, the net tangible book value of our shares was $3,966, or approximately $.002 per share, based upon 2,000,000 shares outstanding. Upon completion of this Offering, but without taking into account any change in the net tangible book value after completion of this Offering, other than that resulting from the sale of the Shares and receipt of the net proceeds of $25,000, less offering expenses of $6,000, the net tangible book value of the 3,000,000 shares to be outstanding will be $22,966, or approximately $.008 per Share. The purchasers of Shares in this Offering will incur immediate dilution (a reduction in net tangible book value per share from the offering price of $.025 per Share) of $.017 per share. As a result, after completion of the offering, the net tangible book value of the shares held by purchasers in this offering would be $.008 per share, 68% less than the $.025 price they paid for their shares. After completion of the sale of the shares in this offering, the new shareholders will own approximately 33% of the total number of shares then outstanding, for which they will have made a cash investment of $25,000, or $.025 per Share. The following table illustrates the per share dilution to new investors and does not give any effect to the results of any operations subsequent to January 31, 2005 or the date of this prospectus:
Public Offering Price per Share $ .025 Net Tangible Book Value prior to this Offering $ .002 Net Tangible Book Value After Offering $ .008 Immediate Dilution per Share to New Investors $ .017 (68%)
11 The following table summarizes the number and percentage of shares purchased, the amount and percentage of consideration paid and the average price per Share paid by our existing stockholders and by new investors in this offering:
Total Price Number of Percent of Consideration Per Share Shares Held Ownership Paid --------- ----------- ---------- ------------- Existing Stockholders $ .005 2,000,000 67% $ 10,000 Investors in This Offering $ .025 1,000,000 33% $ 25,000
PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION -------------------- This is a self-underwritten offering, which means the shares will be sold by our officers and directors; no underwriters will be engaged to sell the shares. This prospectus is part of a registration statement filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission that permits our officers and directors to sell the Shares directly to the public, with no commission or other remuneration payable to them for any shares they sell.

Under Rule 144, such shares can be publicly sold, subject to volume restrictions and certain restrictions on the manner of sale, commencing one year after their acquisition. Any sale of shares held by the existing stockholders (after applicable restrictions expire) and/or the sale of shares purchased in this offering (which would be immediately resalable after the offering), may have a depressive effect on the price of our common stock in any market that may develop, of which there can be no assurance. Our principal stockholder does not have any existing plans to sell her shares at any time after this offering is complete. DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES ========================= Common Stock - ------------ Our authorized capital stock consists of 100,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $.001 per share. The holders of our common stock (i) have equal ratable rights to dividends from funds legally available therefor, when, as and if declared by our Board of Directors; (ii) are entitled to share in all of our assets available for distribution to holders of common stock upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up of our affairs; (iii) do not have preemptive, subscription or conversion rights and there are no redemption or sinking fund provisions or rights; and (iv) are entitled to one non-cumulative vote per share on all matters on which stockholders may vote. 16 Non-cumulative Voting - --------------------- Holders of shares of our common stock do not have cumulative voting rights, which means that the holders of more than 50% of the outstanding shares, voting for the election of directors, can elect all of the directors to be elected, if they so choose, and, in such event, the holders of the remaining shares will not be able to elect any of our directors. After this offering is completed, the present stockholders will own approximately 67% of our outstanding shares and the purchasers in this offering will own 33%. Cash Dividends - -------------- As of the date of this prospectus, we have not paid any cash dividends to stockholders. The declaration of any future cash dividend will be at the discretion of our Board of Directors and will depend upon our earnings, if any, our capital requirements and financial position, our general economic conditions, and other pertinent conditions. It is our present intention not to pay any cash dividends in the foreseeable future, but rather to reinvest earnings, if any, in our business operations. INDEMNIFICATION =============== Pursuant to provisions set forth in our Articles of Incorporation and By- Laws, we may indemnify an officer or director who is made a party to any proceeding, including a law suit, because of his/her position, if he/she acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in our best interest. In certain cases, we may advance expenses incurred in defending any such proceeding. To the extent that the officer or director is successful on the merits in any such proceeding as to which such person is to be indemnified, we must indemnify him/her against all expenses incurred, including attorney's fees. With respect to a derivative action, indemnity may be made only for expenses actually and reasonably incurred in defending the proceeding, and if the officer or director is judged to be liable, only by a court order. The indemnification is intended to be to the fullest extent permitted by the laws of the State of Nevada. Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to our directors, officers and controlling persons pursuant to the provisions above, or otherwise, we have been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act, and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities, other than the payment by us of expenses incurred or paid by one of our directors, officers, or control persons in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding, is asserted by one of our directors, officers, or control persons in connection with the securities being 17 registered, we will, unless in the opinion of our counsel the matter has been settled by a controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act, and we will be bound and governed by the final adjudication of such issue. DESCRIPTION OF OUR BUSINESS --------------------------- General Information - ------------------- Milk Bottle Cards Inc. is a development stage company that was incorporated in the State of Nevada on November 19, 2004. We maintain our business office at 127 East 18th Ave., Vancouver, British Columbia, V5V 1E4 Canada, in the home of Nicole Milkovich, our President, which we use on a rent-free basis. We intend to develop a collection of greeting cards for retail and wholesale distribution. We intend to use the net proceeds from this offering to develop our business operations. Background of the Industry of Greeting Cards - -------------------------------------------- The custom of sending greeting cards can be traced back to the ancient Chinese, who exchanged messages of good will to celebrate the New Year, and to the early Egyptians, who conveyed their greetings on papyrus scrolls. Handmade paper greeting cards were being exchanged in Europe sometime in the 13th Century. The Germans are known to have printed New Year's greetings from woodcuts as early as 1400, and handmade paper Valentines were being exchanged in various parts of Europe in the early to mid-1400s. By the 1850s, the greeting card had been transformed from a relatively expensive, handmade and hand-delivered gift to a popular and affordable means of personal communication, due largely to advances in printing and mechanization, as well as the introduction of the postage stamp. Louis Prang, a German immigrant who started a small lithographic business near Boston in 1856, is generally credited with the start of the greeting card industry in America. In 1875, he introduced the first complete line of Christmas cards to the American public but by the 1890s, cheap imitative import cards entered the American market, eventually forcing Prang to abandon his greeting card publishing business. In the early 1900s, the domestic business climate for greeting cards increased and a number of today's leading publishers were founded. Following World War I, new publishers continued to enter the field and increased competition produced important innovations in printing processes, art techniques and decorative treatments for greeting cards. During World War II, the greeting card industry flourished during the war effort, helping the government sell war bonds and providing cards for the soldiers overseas. 18 Since the 1980s, alternative cards - cards not made for a particular holiday or event - gained in popularity. Explosive growth in electronic technology, and the adoption of the Internet, gave birth to the electronic greeting card or "E-card" in the late 1990s. The development of this entirely new medium for card-sending served to further expand the industry, producing new E-card publishers as well as E-greeting card offerings by traditional greeting card publishers. Our Proposed Business - --------------------- We intend to operate our business in a two-pronged manner. We plan to produce quality handmade greeting cards and then sell those products through a variety of distribution channels, both wholesale and retail. We intend to retail our greeting card line through an online store which will be established on our website at www.milkbottlecards.com, at craft shows and at home parties. We will also wholesale our greeting cards to small gift and card stores and flower stores, either by selling direct or by consigning cards to them. Initial Greeting Card Line - -------------------------- Our initial greeting card collection will fall into two categories: (1) everyday greeting cards, including Birthday, Anniversary and Get Well; and (2) seasonal cards, including Christmas, Valentine's Day, Mother's Day and Father's Day. In addition, we will produce hand painted blank greeting cards so the purchaser will be able to customize the card to any occasion. We intend to manufacture our cards in two ways -- Printed and Hand Painted. The printed cards will be printed in our office using an ink-jet printer and sprayed with a sealer to protect the surface. The hand painted cards will be painted on high-quality watercolor paper. We estimate the approximate cost of producing an average card will be $1.00 to $1.40, depending on which technique is used. This cost is expected to drop once we start to purchase supplies in larger quantities. We currently intend to sell our cards to retailers for $2.50 to $3.50, resulting in a retail price to the end consumer of $4.95 to $6.95 each, which is competitively priced within the industry. We will maintain this retail price range of $4.95 to $6.95 per card when selling direct to the consumer through our website, craft shows and through home parties. The cards will be stamped on the back with our company logo and website address to ensure a unique feel of the product and a brand awareness, which we hope will eventually lead customers to our website for repeat sales. The cards will be individually wrapped in cellophane sleeves with coordinating envelopes. Printed Cards will be limited edition printed greeting cards. The technique for these cards will be for the design to be collaged, scanned and then printed in small batches for a series of cards based on the trends of the seasons; utilizing different colors, patterns, textures and themes. 19 Hand Painted Cards will be one-of-a-kind designed cards painted on high quality watercolor paper, with matching envelopes. We will continue to experiment with different card-making techniques and materials, varying the themes, patterns and colors that we feel the public will want to purchase. As new designs are developed, new cards will be added to our collection, while poor selling cards will be eliminated. Market Analysis - --------------- Initially, we will endeavor to sell our greeting cards regionally throughout the Vancouver area of British Columbia, Canada. We will attempt to wholesale and/or consign our line to gift stores, card stores and flower stores. We will attempt to identify distinct establishments for each type that cater to higher income individuals who are interested in buying greeting cards that are hand made, unique in design and that are not mass produced. We believe that there is a growing number of people who enjoy homemade greeting cards and appreciate that they can give these cards to their intended recipients knowing that they are special cards and that the recipient will not be receiving the exact same card from other people. In addition to extensively marketing and establishing a presence in the Vancouver area, we also intend to sell our greeting cards over the Internet, thereby increasing the possibility of expanding our geographic markets throughout North America. As we establish our operations and expand our inventory of initial cards, we intend to expand our geographic coverage for our wholesale business, a well. We may also be able to expand our geographic coverage for certain aspects of our retail sales beyond Internet exposure and sales, such as through gift and home living shows in other regions.. Competition - ----------- Competition for our greeting card collection comes from two distinct groups of producers of greeting cards. The first group are the large multinational corporations who have traditionally mass produced greeting cards for the consumer market and are the leaders in the industry. The second group contains smaller companies focusing on different niche segments within the greeting card market, as well as individuals or small organizations producing small volumes of hand made greeting cards. Our major competitors will be the large multinational greeting card companies, which include Hallmark Cards Inc., American Greetings Corporation, Taylor Corporation, 123greetings.com Inc. and CSS Industries, Inc. These companies tend to mass produce greeting cards for the consumer market and have been quite successful in doing so. In addition to traditional paper based greeting cards, many of these companies have developed divisions that provide online greeting cards, wedding invitations, birth announcements, etc., as well as different seasonal offerings that might include gift wrap, ribbons and bows. These companies have extensive resources for development, manufacturing, marketing, distribution and sales of their greeting card collections and associated product offerings. While these multinationals mass produce and distribute their cards throughout North America, we believe that there is still room in the industry to target market those consumers who do not want mass produced greeting cards, but would rather have a more unique and hand made greeting card. 20 There are also a large number of individuals and small organizations producing small volumes of hand made greeting cards for distribution and sale to specialty shops, including card and gift shops, flower shops as well as through the Internet. There are no significant barriers to entry into the greeting card industry, virtually any motivated individual could commence a business and start designing, manufacturing and selling greeting cards immediately. We feel that we can successfully compete in this small, handmade segment of the industry quite effectively with our unique, handmade card designs and verses. We believe that the key factors for our success will be to design a unique and appealing collection of greeting cards, utilize quality paper and competitive pricing. We also intend to focus on selling our greeting cards to markets we will target that specialize in carrying handmade and specialty greeting cards. Establishing the "Milk Bottle Cards" brand name will be essential to the success of our company. We will need to continually reinforce to the consumer that our greeting cards are unique, high quality, of good value and are readily available for purchase. We believe that consumers will develop into repeat customers if we can continue to deliver on these key factors. By aggressively focusing on several different sales channels, we feel that we will be able to build up our brand name, which will assist us in competing in the very competitive greeting card industry. Sales and Distribution Methods - ------------------------------ We plan to market our products both to wholesale and retail distributors in a number of different ways. We initially intend to target and wholesale, or consign, if necessary to familiarize customers with our brand name, to small gift shops, card stores and flower stores. We also plan to retail our products through parties hosted by individuals, at gift and home living shows, and via an online Internet store on our website at www.milkbottlecards.com. We have reserved the domain name and have engaged the services of a website developer to design and host our website. Using direct marketing and sales, we will sell our product to small gift shops, card stores and flower stores. As the market for greeting cards is quite competitive, we feel that we may initially have to offer consignment terms to potential customers. Once we start to establish our brand name, however, and begin generating revenues, we will be in a stronger position and will no longer need to offer consignment terms for our cards. As funds become available, we also plan to generate direct sales at parties hosted by individuals who will receive a 20% commission on all products sold at the party. The host of the party will invite individuals by word of mouth or through invitations, such as has historically been done with Tupperware and MaryKay Cosmetics, as well as many other companies. This method tends to keep costs associated with this form of sale to a minimum. When funds are available and we are ready to expand into this form of marketing and sales, we intend to place ads in local newspapers and handouts. 21 As funds allow, we also plan to attend local gift and home living shows where it we will display and sell our products. This method will also keep sales costs fairly low; however, as there are not that many such shows, the amount of sales from this method is not expected to be significant. We are currently in the process of building our website to host an online store at www.milkbottlecards.com, where our greeting card collection can be viewed, purchased and shipped. Due to the high cost of shipping, we plan to initially only make our products available within North America and there will be a minimum order size of twelve cards. We will develop a user friendly interactive web site where consumers can view the greeting cards, order the cards and provide shipping information. As Internet usage continues to grow and online purchases become much more commonplace, it is expected that we will incorporate online credit card purchases and Internet sales will become an inexpensive and effective way for us to sell our greeting cards. We intend to use our website as not only an online store, but a marketing tool as well. The website will contain pictures and information about all of our greeting cards. We will attempt to strategically place the website on many different and popular search engines. We will attempt to drive traffic to our website using direct email marketing campaigns, starting with friends, family and business associates. Our greeting cards will be wrapped in clear plastic covers and stickers with Milk Bottle Cards used to seal them. This will continue to reinforce the Milk Bottle Cards brand name and be consistent with the website. Suppliers and Raw Materials - --------------------------- We currently purchase our supplies from two primary sources: Printing Ink, of Vancouver, British Columbia, and Opus Framing of Vancouver, British Columbia. We do not have any written contracts with these suppliers yet and are on a cash purchase basis at this time. Once our business is established and our inventory increases, we intend to shop for better prices based on larger lot purchases of paper and inks used in our card making process. All of the materials and supplies used in our card making process are readily available from many different suppliers and, if and when necessary, we will be able to substitute our current suppliers if certain supplies we need are unavailable or if we are able to obtain better quality and better prices for the supplies we use. Equipment - --------- Ms. Nicole Milkovich, an officer and director, currently provides the usage of computer and technical equipment for the development and manufacturing of the greeting card collection, on a rent-free basis. This equipment consists of an Apple Macintosh PowerBook G4 computer, an Epson Ink Jet printer and an Agfa scanner. We anticipate that this equipment will be sufficient to develop our business operations into the foreseeable future; however, if there is high initial demand for our greeting cards, we will require an additional printer. We estimate that we can purchase an additional printer for approximately $300. We are responsible for 22 purchasing all the assorted inks, paper and supplies associated with the development of the greeting cards and reimburse Mr. Milkovich for such costs and expenses incurred on our behalf. Patents and Trademarks - ---------------------- We do not currently have any patent or trademark protection. If we determine it is feasible to file for such trademark protection, we still have no assurance that doing so will prevent competitors from using the same or similar names, marks, concepts or appearance. Government and Industry Regulation - ---------------------------------- Regulation of Internet - Websites are not currently subject to direct federal laws or regulations applicable to access, content or commerce on the Internet. However, due to the increasing popularity and use of the Internet, it is possible that a number of laws and regulations may be adopted with respect to the Internet covering issues such as: * user privacy * freedom of expression * pricing * content and quality of products and services * taxation * advertising * intellectual property rights * information security The adoption of any such laws or regulations might decrease the rate of growth of Internet use, which in turn could decrease the demand for our services, increase the cost of doing business or in some other manner have a negative impact on our business, financial condition and operating results. In addition, applicability to the Internet of existing laws governing issues such as property ownership, copyrights and other intellectual property issues, taxation, libel, obscenity and personal privacy is uncertain. The vast majority of such laws were adopted prior to the advent of the Internet and related technologies and, as a result, do not contemplate or address the unique issues of the Internet and related technologies. We will abide by all copyright laws and will ensure that any copyrighted information that is provided on our website or included in any or our greeting card offerings has received approval from the source of the copyright information. When using the information provided or refurbished from other sources and to protect us from any potential intellectual property claims, we will endeavor to obtain all necessary consents prior to the use of the sources and will reference the sources to give full credit where it is due. Employees and Employment Agreements - ----------------------------------- At present, we have no employees, other than, Nicole Milkovich and Carlos Bolbrugge, our officers and directors, who will not be compensated for their services until such time as we become profitable. At such time, our 23 Board of Directors will determine the amount of compensation that will be paid to our officers and directors, if any. Ms. Milkovich devotes approximately 20 hours per week of her time to our operations and Mr. Bolbruggee devotes approximately 10 hours per week. Nicole's duties will be to handle our day-to-day operations and Carlos assists Nicole on an as- needed basis. Ms. Milkovich and Mr. Bolbrugge do not have employment agreements with us. We presently do not have pension, health, annuity, insurance, stock options, profit sharing or similar benefit plans; however, we may adopt plans in the future. There are presently no personal benefits available. As and when funds become available, we intend to hire third party independent contractors for development of our website and to host our website, who will be under the supervision of our officers and directors. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION ========================================================= We are a start-up, development stage company and have not yet generated or realized any revenues from our business operations. Since inception, we have incurred net losses of $6,034. The following table provides selected financial data about our company for the period from November 19, 2004, the date of incorporation, through January 31, 2005. For detailed financial information, see the audited Financial Statements included in this prospectus.
Balance Sheet Data:. 1/31/05 ------------------ ------- Cash $ 9,841 Total assets $ 9,841 Total liabilities $ 5,875 Stockholders' equity $ 3,966
Our estimated expenses for the next twelve months of operations are as outlined below: Administrative and Office 1,000 Supplies for initial inventory 2,000 Equipment 1,000 Accounting and Legal 8,000 Advertising and Marketing 5,000 Working Capital 2,000 Other than the shares offered by this prospectus, no other source of capital has been has been identified or sought. To date, we have never had any discussions with any possible acquisition candidate nor have we any intention of doing so. 24 Plan of Operation - ----------------- Proposed Milestones to Implement Business Operations: - ---------------------------------------------------- In order to become fully operational and profitable, we will need to achieve each of the milestones outlined below: - - Develop and launch our website at www.milkbottlecards.com. We have verbally engaged Gary Baerg at Nucleus Networks (1932 West First Ave, Vancouver, BC) to design, develop and launch our website for $250. In addition, Mr. Baerg has been engaged to host the website until December 31, 2005 for $50. There are no written agreements between us and Mr. Baerg. Nicole and Carlos will work with Mr. Baerg in the artistic layout and functionality of the website. The initial website is scheduled to launch by May 1, 2005. - - Develop marketing materials. All marketing materials will be developed in-house by our officers and directors at no cost to us, other than minimal expense costs of development. The initial marketing materials will be based on the same design concepts used in the website and will consist of logo, letterhead, small point of purchase display materials and corporate stickers used to seal the plastic covers/sleeves used to protect the cards. This marketing material will be developed by May 1, 2005. - - Develop the initial card collection. This initial greeting card collection will consist of samples of both printed and hand painted cards. We plan on initially developing printed cards: Birthday, Anniversary and Get Well cards. In addition, and given the time of the year, we will develop Father's and Mother's day cards. We will also develop some hand painted cards, reflecting spring and summer colors. The initial collection of sample cards is expected to be completed by May 15, 2005. - - Increase our card collection inventory. We will incur expenses associated with the purchase of supplies to expand our card collection. We anticipate we will require a minimal level of supplies including paper, ink, paint, glue, cellophane and stickers to produce our initial collection of cards and to provide a modest level of inventory of finished cards that will be ready for immediate resale. We estimate that we will require approximately 500 finished cards (printed and hand painted) in inventory to begin our initial marketing campaign. We estimate that this initial level of inventory of supplies and finished cards will cost approximately $1,000 and will be completed by May 31, 2005 to coincide with the launch of our website. - - Implement direct sales campaign. As soon an our initial card collection inventory is ready, we intend to implement our direct sales campaign by contacting small gift shops, card stores and flower stores in and around the Vancouver, British Columbia region. We are currently gathering information on potential clients and plan to commence this direct marketing campaign in June 2005; the estimated cost to complete this phase is approximately $500. 25 - - Commence hosting home party sales. Our President anticipates hosting a "Spring into Summer" home party, where she will invite her family, friends and business associates to view and purchase the initial collection of cards, in an effort to introduce them to Milk Bottle Cards and provide them with the opportunity to book and host their own parties. We anticipate hosting our "Spring into Summer" home party sometime in June 2005 and it is anticipated that the cost will be approximately $100. - - Attend gift and home living trade shows. We plan on attending local gift and home living trade shows, as and when financial resources are available. As funds are available, we also plan on attending similar trade show in other regions of Canada and the United States. Until such financial resources area available, we will continue to gather information on these other trade shows and identify and prioritize the different shows that we would like to attend when the resources are available. We will start to gather this information in June 2005 and continue on an ongoing basis to source more current information on other trade shows, as and when it becomes available. - - Continue to expand our greeting card collection and improve our website. We will continue to expand our greeting card collection and as the collection become more extensive, we will also expand our website to accommodate this expected growth. While our initial website will be launched by June 1, 2005, we will continue to enhance the website to make it more user friendly and to display our expanding greeting card collection. This expansion of the greeting card collection and enhancement to the website will commence when financial resources are available will continue through the normal development of our ongoing business operations. DESCRIPTION OF PROPERTY ======================= We do not currently own any property. We operate our business from the home of our President, Nicole Milkovich, on a rent-free basis. It is anticipated this arrangement will remain until we begin generating revenues and our operations expand, at which time we will seek to lease shared office facilities at competitive market rates, on a month-to-month basis. It is our opinion that our current office space will meet our needs for the foreseeable future. CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS ============================================== We operate our business from the home of our President, Nicole Milkovich, and currently use her computer equipment to produce our greeting cards, on a rent-free basis. 26 MARKET FOR COMMON EQUITY AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS ======================================================== No public market currently exists for shares of our common stock. Following completion of this offering, we intend to apply to have our common stock listed for quotation on the Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board; however, there is no assurance that we will be successful in doing so. Penny Stock Rules - ----------------- The Securities and Exchange Commission has also adopted rules that regulate broker-dealer practices in connection with transactions in penny stocks. Penny stocks are generally equity securities with a price of less than $5.00 (other than securities registered on certain national securities exchanges or quoted on the Nasdaq system, provided that current price and volume information with respect to transactions in such securities is provided by the exchange or system). A purchaser is purchasing penny stock which limits the ability to sell the stock. The shares offered by this prospectus constitute penny stock under the Securities and Exchange Act. The shares will remain penny stocks for the foreseeable future. The classification of penny stock makes it more difficult for a broker-dealer to sell the stock into a secondary market, which makes it more difficult for a purchaser to liquidate his/her investment. Any broker-dealer engaged by the purchaser for the purpose of selling his or her shares in us will be subject to Rules 15g-1 through 15g-10 of the Securities and Exchange Act. Rather than creating a need to comply with those rules, some broker-dealers will refuse to attempt to sell penny stock. The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from those rules, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document prepared by the Commission, which: - - - contains a description of the nature and level of risk in the market for penny stocks in both public offerings and secondary trading; - - - contains a description of the broker's or dealer's duties to the customer and of the rights and remedies available to the customer with respect to a violation to such duties or other requirements of the Securities Act of 1934, as amended; - - - contains a brief, clear, narrative description of a dealer market, including "bid" and "ask" prices for penny stocks and the significance of the spread between the bid and ask price; - - - contains a toll-free telephone number for inquiries on disciplinary actions; - - - defines significant terms in the disclosure document or in the conduct of trading penny stocks; and 27 - - - contains such other information and is in such form (including language, type, size and format) as the Securities and Exchange Commission shall require by rule or regulation; The broker-dealer also must provide, prior to effecting any transaction in a penny stock, to the customer: - the bid and offer quotations for the penny stock; - the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson in the transaction; - the number of shares to which such bid and ask prices apply, or other comparable information relating to the depth and liquidity of the market for such stock; and - monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer's account. In addition, the penny stock rules require that prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from those rules; the broker-dealer must make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser's written acknowledgment of the receipt of a risk disclosure statement, a written agreement to transactions involving penny stocks, and a signed and dated copy of a written suitability statement. These disclosure requirements will have the effect of reducing the trading activity in the secondary market for our stock because it will be subject to these penny stock rules. Therefore, stockholders may have difficulty selling their securities. Regulation M - ------------ Our officers and directors, who will offer and sell the Shares, are aware that they are required to comply with the provisions of Regulation M promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. With certain exceptions, Regulation M precludes the officers and directors, sales agents, any broker-dealer or other person who participate in the distribution of shares in this offering from bidding for or purchasing, or attempting to induce any person to bid for or purchase any security which is the subject of the distribution until the entire distribution is complete. As an exception to these rules, an underwriter may engage in transactions effected in accordance with Regulation M that are intended to stabilize, maintain or otherwise affect the price of our common stock. The underwriter may engage in over-allotment sales, syndicate covering transactions, stabilizing transactions and penalty bids in accordance with Regulation M. Over-allotments occur when an underwriter sells more shares than it purchases in an offering. In order to cover the resulting short position, the underwriter may exercise the over-allotment option described above. Additionally, an underwriter may engage in syndicate covering transactions. Syndicate covering transactions are bids for or purchases of stock on the open market by the underwriter in order to reduce a short position incurred 28 by the underwriter on behalf of the underwriting syndicate. There is no contractual limit on the size of any syndicate covering transaction. Stabilizing transactions consist of bids or purchases made by an underwriter for the purpose of preventing or slowing a decline in the market price of our securities while the offering is in progress. A penalty bid is an arrangement permitting the underwriter to reclaim the selling concession that would otherwise accrue to an underwriter if the common stock originally sold by the underwriter was later repurchased by the underwriter and therefore was not effectively sold to the public by such underwriter. We have not and do not intend to engage the services of an underwriter in connection with the offer and sale of the Shares in this offering. In general, the purchase of a security to stabilize or to reduce a short position could cause the price of the security to be higher than it might otherwise be. Sales of securities by us or even the potential of these sales could have a negative effect on the market price of the shares of common stock offered hereby.

Matheson, Inc. Fraser G. Ross,Ltd. Brian A. Shaw, Inc. Anthony L. Soda, Inc. REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM To the Stockholders and Board of Directors of Milk Bottle Cards Inc. We have audited the balance sheet of Milk Bottle Cards Inc. (a development stage enterprise) as at January 31, 2005 and the statements of operations, stockholders' equity and cash flows for the period from November 19, 2004 (inception) to January 31, 2005. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. 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 an audit to obtain reasonable assurance whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit 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, these financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as at January 31, 2005 and the results of its operations and cash flows and the changes in stockholders' equity for the period from November 19, 2004 (inception) to January 31, 2005 in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, the Company is dependent on raising additional capital to fund future operations and anticipates ongoing losses from its planned business operations which raises substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 1. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. /s/ "Dale Matheson Carr-Hilton LaBonte" Dale Matheson Carr-Hilton LaBonte CHARTERED ACCOUNTANTS Vancouver, B.C.

The accompanying notes are an integral part of these financial statements. 36 Milk Bottle Cards Inc. (A Development Stage Enterprise) January 31, 2005 Notes to Financial Statements Note 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies - ----------------------------------------------------- Organization - ------------ Milk Bottle Cards Inc. (the "Company") was incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on November 19, 2004 for the purpose of producing, distributing and marketing a collection of greeting cards. The Company has a total of 100,000,000 authorized common shares with a par value of $0.001 per share and 2,000,000 common shares issued and outstanding as of January 31, 2005. The Company has been in the initial organization stage since inception and has no business assets nor current operating revenues. The Company's ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on raising additional capital to fund future operations and ultimately to attain profitable operations. Accordingly, these factors raise substantial doubt as to the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The Company is planning to file a form SB-2 Registration Statement in connection with a planned prospectus offering of up to 1,000,000 shares of the Company's common stock at a price of $0.025 per share for gross proceeds of $25,000. The Company expects to satisfy its cash requirements for the next twelve months with the current cash in the bank, proceeds from the planned offering and advances from the Company's sole director if required. Basis of presentation - --------------------- These financial statements are presented in United States dollars and have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles. The Company's year end is January 31, 2005 with its initial period being from November 19, 2004 to January 31, 2005. Development Stage Enterprise - ---------------------------- The Company is a development stage enterprise, as defined in Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement ("SFAS") No. 7. The Company is devoting all of its present efforts to securing and establishing a new business. Its planned principal operations have not commenced and accordingly, no revenue has been derived during the organizational period. 37 Milk Bottle Cards Inc. (A Development Stage Enterprise) January 31, 2005 Notes to Financial Statements Note 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (con't) - ------------------------------------------------------------- Use of Estimates - ---------------- The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure on contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Fair Value of Financial Instruments - ----------------------------------- In accordance with the requirements of SFAS No. 107, management has determined the estimated fair value of financial instruments using available market information and appropriate valuation methodologies. The fair value of financial instruments classified as current assets or liabilities approximate carrying value due to the short-term maturity of the instruments. Federal Income Tax - ------------------ The Company has adopted the provisions of SFAS No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes. The Company accounts for income taxes pursuant to the provisions of the Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes", which requires an asset and liability approach to calculating deferred income taxes. The asset and liability approach requires the recognition of deferred tax liabilities and assets for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the carrying amounts and the tax basis of assets and liabilities. Earnings (loss) per Common Share - -------------------------------- The Company has adopted SFAS No. 128, "Earnings Per Share," which simplifies the computation of earnings per share. Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed on the basis of the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings (loss) per share is computed on the basis of the weighted average number of common shares and dilutive securities outstanding during the period. Dilutive securities having an anti-dilutive effect on diluted earnings (loss) per share are excluded from the calculation. Diluted loss per share is equal to basic loss per share as there are no dilutive securities outstanding. Stock-Based Compensation - ------------------------ The Company has not adopted a stock option plan and has not granted any stock options. Accordingly no stock-based compensation has been recorded to date. 38 Milk Bottle Cards Inc. (A Development Stage Enterprise) January 31, 2005 Notes to Financial Statements Note 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (con't) - ------------------------------------------------------------ Comprehensive Income - -------------------- SFAS No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income," establishes standards for reporting and presentation of comprehensive income, its components and accumulated balances. Comprehensive income is defined to include all changes in equity except those resulting from investments by owners and distributions to owners. Among other disclosures, SFAS No.130 requires that all items that are required to be recognized under current accounting standards as components of comprehensive income be reported in a financial statement that is presented with the same prominence as other financial statements. The Company does not have any assets requiring disclosure of comprehensive income. Recent accounting pronouncements - -------------------------------- In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123 (Revised 2004), Share-Based Payment ("SFAS 123(R)"), which requires the compensation cost related to share-based payments, such as stock options and employee stock purchase plans, be recognized in the financial statements based on the grant-date fair value of the award. SFAS 123(R) is effective for all interim periods beginning after December 15, 2005. Management does not believe that the adoption of this standard will have a material impact on the Company's financial condition or results of operations. In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 153, Exchanges of Non-monetary Assets, an amendment of APB Opinion No. 29, Accounting for Non-monetary Transactions ("SFAS 153") SFAS 153 requires that exchanges of non-monetary assets are to be measured based on fair value and eliminates the exception for exchanges of non-monetary, similar productive assets, and adds an exemption for non-monetary exchanges that do not have commercial substance. SFAS 153 will be effective for fiscal periods beginning after June 15, 2005. Management does not believe that the adoption of this standard will have a material impact on the Company's financial condition or results of operations. Note 2 - Common Stock - ----------------------- The Company's authorized capitalization is 100,000,000 common shares with a par value of $0.001 per share. To date, the Company has not granted any stock options and has not recorded any stock-based compensation. A total of 2,000,000 shares of the Company's common stock were issued to the founding and sole director of the Company pursuant to a stock subscription agreement at $0.005 per share for total proceeds of $10,000. 39 Milk Bottle Cards Inc. (A Development Stage Enterprise) January 31, 2005 Notes to Financial Statements Note 3 - Related Parties - -------------------------- The Company currently has no significant related party transactions with any related individuals or entities. The Company currently uses office space provided by the director of the Company on a rent-free basis not subject to any formal rental or lease agreement. The Company has determined that the fair value of the office space provided is not significant and accordingly no related rent expense has been recorded in these financial statements. Note 4 - Income Taxes - --------------------- The Company has net operating loss carry-forwards of approximately $6,000 which may be available to offset future taxable income. Due to the uncertainty of realization of these loss carry-forwards, a full valuation allowance has been provided for this deferred tax asset. Note 5 - Subsequent Events - ---------------------------- The Company is currently planning to file a form SB-2 Registration Statement under the Securities Act of 1933 with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission to raise up to $25,000 by way of a prospectus offering of 1,000,000 shares of the Company's common stock at a price of $0.025 per share. 40 PART II - INFORMATION NOT REQUIRED IN PROSPECTUS ------------------------------------------------ Item 24. Indemnification of directors and officers. - ---------------------------------------------------- Pursuant to the Articles of Incorporation and By-Laws of the corporation, we may indemnify an officer or director who is made a party to any proceeding, including a law suit, because of his position, if he acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in our best interest. In certain cases, we may advance expenses incurred in defending any such proceeding. To the extent that the officer or director is successful on the merits in any such proceeding as to which such person is to be indemnified, we must indemnify him against all expenses incurred, including attorney's fees. With respect to a derivative action, indemnity may be made only for expenses actually and reasonably incurred in defending the proceeding, and if the officer or director is judged liable, only by a court order. The indemnification is intended to be to the fullest extent permitted by the laws of the State of Nevada. As regards indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, may be permitted to directors or officers pursuant to the foregoing provisions, we are informed that, in the opinion of the Commission, such indemnification is against public policy, as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. Item 25. Other expenses of issuance and distribution. - ------------------------------------------------------ Expenses incurred or (expected) relating to this Prospectus and distribution are as follows: Legal and Professional fees $ 3,500 Accounting 1,900 Transfer Agent fees 500 Printing of Prospectus 100 ---------- TOTAL $ 6,000 To date, we have incurred an accounts payable to our accountant for fees charged to prepare our initial audit. We don't intend to incur any other expenses unless and until we complete this offering and fully commence our business plans. Item 26. Recent sales of unregistered securities. - -------------------------------------------------- Set forth below is information regarding the issuance and sales of securities without registration since inception. No such sales involved the use of an underwriter; no advertising or public solicitation were involved; the securities bear a restrictive legend; and no commissions were paid in connection with the sale of any securities. 41 On November 29, 2004, 2,000,000 shares of common stock were issued to Nicole Milkovich, our President, Secretary, Chief Financial Officer and sole director of Milk Bottle Cards, Inc., as founders' shares, in exchange for $10,000, or $.005 per share, in. These securities were issued in reliance upon the exemption contained in Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933. These securities were issued to officers and directors of the company, bear a restrictive legend and were issued to non-US residents. Item 27.

Exhibit Number Description ---------------------------------------------- 3.1 Articles of Incorporation 3.2 Bylaws 5 Opinion re: Legality 23.1 Consent of Independent Auditors 23.2 Consent of Counsel (See Exhibit 5) 99 Form of Subscription Agreement
Item 28. Undertakings - ----------------------- The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes: 1. To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement to: (i) Include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933; (ii) Reflect in the prospectus any facts which, individually or together, represent a fundamental change in the information in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20 percent change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the "Calculation of Registration Fee" table in the effective registration statement; (iii) Include any additional or changed material information on the plan of distribution. 42 2. For determining liability under the Securities Act, treat each post-effective amendment as a new registration statement of the securities offered, and the offering of such securities at that time to be the initial bona fide offering. 3. File a post-effective amendment to remove from registration any of the securities registered which remain unsold at the end of the offering. (d) The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes to provide to the purchasers in this offering certificates in such denominations and registered in such names as required to permit prompt delivery to each purchaser. (e) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act (the "Act") may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the small business issuer pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the small business issuer has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act, and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the small business issuer of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer, or controlling of the small business issuer in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer, or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the small business issuer will, unless in the opinion of counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act, and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue. (f) The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that: (1) For determining any liability under the Securities Act, it will treat the information omitted from the form of prospectus filed as part of this registration statement in reliance upon Rule 430A and contained in a form of prospectus filed by the small business issuer under Rule 424(b)(1) or (4) or 497(h) under the Securities Act as part of this registration statement as of the time the Commission declared it effective. (2) For determining any liability under the Securities Act, treat each post-effective amendment that contains a form of prospectus as a new registration statement for the securities offered in the registration statement, and that offering of the securities at that time as the bona fide offering of those securities. 43 SIGNATURES ---------- In accordance with the requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, the Registrant certifies that it has reasonable grounds to believe that it meets all of the requirements for filing on Form SB-2 and authorized this prospectus to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned, thereunto duly authorized, in the City of Vancouver, Country of Canada.

Section 2.10 Proxies. At each meeting of the shareholders, each shareholder entitled to vote shall be entitled to vote in person or by proxy; provided, however, that the right to vote by proxy shall exist only in case the instrument authorizing such proxy to act shall have been executed in writing by the registered holder or holders of such shares, as the case may be, as shown on the share transfer of the corporation or by his or her or her attorney thereunto duly authorized in writing.

The termination of any action, suit, or proceeding by judgment, order, settlement, conviction, or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, shall not, of itself, create a presumption that the person did not act in good faith and in a manner which he or she reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, he or she had reasonable cause to believe that his or her conduct was unlawful.

In our capacity as special counsel to the Company, we have examined originals, or copies certified or otherwise identified to our satisfaction, of the following documents: 1. Certificate of Incorporation of the Company, as amended to date; 2. Bylaws of the Company, as amended to date; 3. The records of corporate proceedings relating to the issuance of the Shares and authorizing the offering. 4. Such other instruments and documents, if any, as we have believed to necessary for the purpose of rendering the following opinion. In such examinations, we have assumed the authenticity and completeness of all documents, certificates and records submitted to us as originals, the conformity to the original instruments of all documents, certificates and records submitted to us as copies, and the authenticity and completeness of the originals of such instruments. As to certain matters of fact relating to this opinion, we have relied on the accuracy and truthfulness of certificates of officers of the Company and on certificates of public officials, and have made such investigations of law as we have believed necessary and relevant. 1 We are attorneys licensed to practice in the State of California. We do not express any opinion as to the laws of any other jurisdiction other than the General Corporation Law of the State of Nevada (the "NVCL"), all applicable provisions of the State of Nevada Constitution and all reported judicial decisions interpreting those laws, as well as U.S. federal securities law. No opinion is expressed herein with respect to the qualification of the Shares under the securities or blue sky laws of any state or any foreign jurisdiction. This opinion is limited to the laws, including the rules and regulations thereunder, as in effect on the date hereof. Based on the following we are of the following opinion: 1. Milk Bottle Cards, Inc. (the "Company") is a duly and legally organized and existing Nevada State Corporation, with its registered office located in Carson City, Nevada and its principal place of business located at 2032 West 1st Ave, Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, V6J 1G8. The Articles of Incorporation and corporate registration fees were submitted to the Nevada Secretary of State's office and filed with the office on November 19, 2004. The Company's existence and form is valid and legal pursuant to the representation above. 2. The Company is a fully and duly incorporated Nevada corporate entity. The Company has one class of Common Stock at this time. Neither the Articles of Incorporation, Bylaws, and amendments thereto, nor subsequent resolutions change the non-assessable characteristics of the Company's common shares of stock. The Common Stock previously issued by the Company is in legal form and in compliance with the laws of the State of Nevada, and when such stock was issued, it was fully paid for and non-assessable. The Common Stock to be sold under this Form SB-2 Registration Statement is likewise legal under the laws of the State of Nevada. 3. To our knowledge, the Company is not a party to any legal proceedings nor are there any judgments against the Company, nor are there any actions or suits filed or threatened against it or its officers and directors, in their capacities as such, other than as set forth in the Registration Statement. We know of no disputes involving the Company and the Company has no claim, actions or inquires from any federal, state or other government agency, other than as set forth in the Registration Statement. We know of no claims against the Company or any reputed claims against it at this time, other than as set forth in the move line up...Registration Statement. 4. The Company's outstanding shares are all common shares. There are no liquidation preference rights held by any of the Shareholders upon voluntary or involuntary liquidation of the Company. 5. By directors' resolution, the Company has authorized the issuance of 1,000,000 shares of Common Stock for this offering. The Company's Articles of Incorporation presently provide the authority to the Company to issue 100,000,000 shares of Common Stock, $0.001 par value. 2 Based upon the foregoing, we are of the opinion that the Shares being offered for sale and issuable by the Company pursuant to this Registration Statement will be duly authorized and validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable when issued, as contemplated by the Registration Statement. We do hereby consent to the use of this opinion as an exhibit to the Registration Statement and to the references to this firm in the Registration Statement.
