Iconic Brands, Inc. and Subsidiary
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
December 31, 2010 and 2009
1. ORGANIZATION AND NATURE OF BUSINESS
Iconic Brands, Inc., formerly Paw Spa, Inc. (“Iconic Brands”), was incorporated in the State of Nevada on October 21, 2005. Our plan was to provide mobile grooming and spa services for cats and dogs. Our services were going to include bathing, hair cutting and styling, brushing/combing, flea and tick treatments, nail maintenance and beautification, ear cleaning, teeth cleaning, hot oil treatments, and massage. We did not have any business operations and failed to generate any revenues. We abandoned this business, as we lacked sufficient capital resources. On June 10, 2009, the Company acquired Harbrew Imports, Ltd. (“Harbrew New York”), a New York corporation incorporated on September 8, 1999 which was a wholly owned subsidiary of Harbrew Imports, Ltd. Corp. (“Harbrew Florida”), a Florida corporation incorporated on January 4, 2007. On the Closing Date, pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, the Company issued to the designees of Harbrew New York 27,352,301 shares of our Common Stock at the Closing, or approximately 64% of the 42,510,301 shares outstanding subsequent to the merger. After the merger, Harbrew New York continued as the surviving company under the laws of the state of New York and became the wholly owned subsidiary of the Company.
In anticipation of the merger between Iconic Brands, Inc. and Harbrew New York, on May 1, 2009 the Board of Directors and a majority of shareholders of Harbrew New York approved the amendment of its Articles of Incorporation changing its name to Iconic Imports, Inc. (“Iconic Imports”). On June 22, 2009, this action was filed with the New York State Department of State.
Prior to the merger on June 10, 2009, Iconic Brands had no assets, liabilities, or business operations. Accordingly, the merger has been treated for accounting purposes as a recapitalization by the accounting acquirer Harbrew New York/Iconic Imports and the financial statements reflect the assets, liabilities, and operations of Harbrew New York/Iconic Imports from its inception on September 8, 1999 to June 10, 2009 and are combined with Iconic Brands thereafter. Iconic Brands and its wholly-owned subsidiary Harbrew New York/Iconic Imports are hereafter referred to as the “Company”.
The Company was a brand owner of self-developed alcoholic beverages. Furthermore, the Company imported, marketed and sold these beverages throughout the United States and globally.
Effective June 10, 2009, prior to the merger, Harbrew Florida affected a 1-for-1,000 reverse stock split of its common stock, reducing the issued and outstanding shares of common stock from 24,592,160 to 24,909, which includes a total of 317 shares resulting from the rounding of fractional shares. All share information has been retroactively adjusted to reflect this reverse stock split.
On August 20, 2010 (see Note 11), the Company and Seven Cellos LLC terminated the License Agreement relating to the distribution of an alcoholic beverage known as “Danny DeVito’s Premium Limoncello”. In the year ended December 31, 2010, this brand accounted for approximately 96% of total sales.
On August 20, 2010 (see Notes 3 and 8), Capstone Capital Group I, LLC, a holder of a Promissory Note with a then remaining balance of approximately $233,000, delivered a Formal Notice of Default to the Company demanding payment of the balance on or before September 1, 2010. On September 16, 2010, Capstone delivered a Notification of Disposition of Collateral to the Company notifying the Company of its attachment of the Collateral (including cash, accounts receivable, inventories, equipment, and contract rights) and its intent to sell the Collateral to the highest qualified bidder in a public sale on September 28, 2010. On September 28, 2010, Capstone acquired the Collateral in exchange for the Promissory Note at the public auction sale; there were no other bidders.
On September 14, 2010 (see Note 11), the Second District Court of Suffolk County New York issued a Warrant of Eviction removing the Company from its Lindenhurst, New York office and the Company ceased its business operations.
On September 23, 2011, Iconic Imports, Inc. (“Imports”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Iconic Brands, Inc., filed a voluntary petition for relief under Chapter 7 of the United States Bankruptcy Code in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Eastern District of New York. The Bankruptcy case is being administered under case No. 8-11-76814. The petition indicated that Imports had no assets and had liabilities of approximately $3,354,000. The case is still pending before the court.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
December 31, 2010 and 2009
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
(a) Basis of Presentation
The financial statements have been prepared on a “going concern” basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. However, as of December 31, 2010, the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary Iconic Imports had its assets taken by the secured lender Capstone Capital Group I, LLC in satisfaction of their promissory note which had been defaulted on by Iconic Imports, Inc., leaving negative working capital of $3,731,230 and a stockholders’ deficiency of $7,207,901. Further, from inception to December 31, 2010, the Company incurred losses of $16,124,330. These factors create substantial doubt as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company plans to improve its financial condition by reorganizing and acquiring a new business. However, there is no assurance that the Company will be successful in accomplishing this objective. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded assets, or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
(b) 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 the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
(c) Principles of Consolidation
The Financial Statements include the accounts of Iconic Brands, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiary Iconic Imports, Inc. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
(d) Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, net of allowance for doubtful accounts, current portion of debt, accounts payable, accrued expenses and other current liabilities, and long term debt. Except for long term debt, the fair value of these financial instruments approximate their carrying amounts reported in the balance sheets due to their short term maturity.
(e) Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all liquid investments purchased with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
(f) Accounts Receivable, Net of Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
The Company extended unsecured credit to its customers in the ordinary course of business but mitigated the associated risks by performing credit checks and actively pursuing past due accounts. An allowance for doubtful accounts was established and recorded based on historical experience and the aging of the related accounts receivable.
Iconic Brands, Inc. and Subsidiary
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
December 31, 2010 and 2009
(g) Inventories
Inventories were stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out method) or market, with due consideration given to obsolescence and to slow moving items.
(h) Property, Plant, and Equipment, Net
Property, plant, and equipment, net, were stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation was calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the respective assets.
(i) Revenue Recognition
Revenue from product sales was recognized when all of the following criteria were met: (1) persuasive evidence of an arrangement existed, (2) the price was fixed or determinable, (3) collectability was reasonably assured, and (4) delivery had occurred. Persuasive evidence of an arrangement and fixed price criteria were satisfied through purchase orders. Collectability criteria were satisfied through credit approvals. Delivery criteria were satisfied when the products were shipped to a customer and title and risk of loss passed to the customer in accordance with the terms of sale. The Company has no obligation to accept the return of products sold other than for replacement of damaged products. Other than quantity price discounts negotiated with customers prior to billing and delivery (which are reflected as a reduction in sales), the Company did not offer any sales incentives or other rebate arrangements to customers.
(j) Shipping and Handling Costs
Shipping and handling costs were reported as selling, general and administrative expenses in the accompanying statements of operations. For the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, shipping and handling costs were not material.
(k) Advertising
Advertising costs were expensed as incurred and are included in selling, marketing, and promotion expense. For the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, advertising expenses were $4,000 and $0, respectively.
(l) Stock-Based Compensation
Stock-based compensation is accounted for at fair value in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 718, “Compensation- Stock Compensation”. For the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, stock-based compensation totaled $713,987 and $2,714,868, respectively. These amounts consist of stock-based compensation given to Company officers and employees and consulting firms, which are included in administrative compensation and benefits and professional fees, respectively.
(m) Foreign Currency Transactions
Gains and losses arising on settlement of foreign currency denominated transactions or balances are included in other selling, general and administrative expenses. For the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, foreign currency transaction losses were $0.
Iconic Brands, Inc. and Subsidiary
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
December 31, 2010 and 2009
(n) Income Taxes
Income taxes are accounted for under the assets and liability method. Current income taxes are provided in accordance with the laws of the respective taxing authorities. Deferred income taxes are provided for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is not more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will be realized.
(o) Net Income (Loss) per Share
Basic net income (loss) per common share is computed on the basis of the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period.
Diluted net income (loss) per common share is computed on the basis of the weighted average number of common shares and dilutive securities (such as stock options, warrants, and convertible securities) outstanding. Dilutive securities having an anti-dilutive effect on diluted net income (loss) per share are excluded from the calculation.
For the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, diluted common shares outstanding excluded the following dilutive securities as the effect of their inclusion was anti-dilutive:

3. LOSS ON DISPOSITION OF ASSETS ATTACHED BY LENDER ON DEFAULTED PROMISSORY NOTE
On September 16, 2010 (see Notes 1 and 8), Capstone Capital Group I, LLC (“Capstone”) delivered a Notification of Disposition of Collateral to the Company notifying the Company of its attachment of the Collateral securing the defaulted Promissory Note and its intent to sell the Collateral to the highest qualified bidder in a public sale on September 28, 2010. On September 28, 2010, Capstone acquired the Collateral in exchange for the Promissory Note at the public auction sale; there were no other bidders. Accordingly, the Company recognized a default loss of $633,921, equal to the excess of the carrying value of the respective Collateral assets over the amount of debt retired, as follows:

(A) On January 22, 2007, the Company entered into a Purchase Order Financing Agreement with a term of two years, that provided for advances of credit from Capstone Capital Group I, LLC (the “Secured Party”) to the Company. Among other things, the agreement provided for fees to the Secured Party equal to 2.5% for the first 30 days (or part thereof) that each advance was outstanding and 1.25% for every 14 days (or part thereof) that such advance remained outstanding. On June 10, 2009, the Company entered into a termination agreement with Capstone (the “Termination Agreement”) whereby Capstone agreed to forgive the $2,833,205 balance owed it under the Purchase Order Financing Agreement in exchange for: (i) a $500,000 7% promissory note (the “Promissory Note”); (ii) 1,000,000 shares of Common Stock; (iii) $1,833,205 worth of Series B Preferred Stock; and (iv) a 3-year warrant to purchase up to 1,000,000 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $0.50 per share. The Promissory Note was payable in 24 monthly installments of $10,000 commencing July 10, 2009, $100,000 on or before June 10, 2010, and the remaining $160,000 on or before June 10, 2011. If the Company closed a financing prior to maturity of the Promissory Note, up to 50% of the proceeds were to be used to prepay the remaining balance of the Promissory Note. The Discount Factoring Agreement was dated January 22, 2007 and provided for financing of certain Company accounts receivable by Capstone Business Credit, LLC (the “Factor”). Among other things, the agreement provided for commissions to the Factor equal to 2% for the first 30 days (or part thereof) that each such account receivable is outstanding and 1% for every 14 days (or part thereof) thereafter that such account receivable remains outstanding. Fees and commissions charged pursuant to the Purchase Order Financing Agreement and the Discount Factoring Agreement are included in interest expense in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.
At December 31, 2010, Capstone holds 916,603 shares of Series B Preferred Stock which, based on the volume weighted average price per share for the preceding 20 trading days, are convertible into 537,912,559 shares of the Company Common Stock.
On August 20, 2010 (see Notes 1 and 3), the Secured Party delivered a Formal Notice of Default to the Company demanding payment of the $233,075 balance on or before September 1, 2010. On September 16, 2010, the Secured Party delivered a Notification of Disposition of Collateral to the Company notifying the Company of its attachment of the Collateral (including accounts receivable, inventories, equipment, and contract rights) and intent to sell the Collateral to the highest qualified bidder in a public sale on September 28, 2010. On September 28, 2010, Capstone acquired the Collateral in exchange for the Promissory Note at the public auction sale; there were no other bidders.
(B) $325,000 total face value of convertible notes outstanding at December 31, 2010 is convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock at a price of $0.50 per share. The other $60,000 face value of convertible notes outstanding at December 31, 2010 is convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock at a variable conversion price equal to 60% of the Market Price, as defined.
(C) These promissory notes were issued to the same entity lender on April 15, 2010. The notes provide that upon an event of default that is not cured within the allotted time, the holder shall have the option to convert the outstanding principal and interest into shares of common stock at a conversion price of $0.00001 per share. The Company has defaulted on all three notes and has failed to cure the defaults within the time allotted specified in the note default provisions.
While the Company has not received any notice or indication from the lender of its intention to convert the $100,000 debt (or a portion thereof), if the lender does elect to convert the $100,000 of debt and related accrued interest at December 31, 2010 at the $0.00001 per share conversion rate it would require the Company to issue 10,726,600,000 common shares to this lender (or over 99% of the 10,779,119,307 shares of Company Common Stock outstanding after this lender’s conversion. However, by virtue of his ownership of the 1 share of Series A Preferred Stock, Mr. DeCicco would retain voting control of the Company.

Also, the notes provided for the grant of a total of 1,200,000 warrants exercisable at an exercise price of $0.20 per share for 3 years.

9. STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY
On June 10, 2009, pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, the Company issued to the designees of Harbrew New York 27,352,301 shares of Common Stock at the Closing. Of this amount:
1)
|
24,909 shares were issued to Harbrew Florida stockholders,
|
2)
|
19,634,112 shares valued at $1,963,411 were issued to Company management and employees for services, including 15,972,359 shares to the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, 100,000 shares to the Company’s Chief Financial Officer, and 2,586,753 shares to Donald Chadwell,
|
3)
|
2,086,973 shares valued at $208,697 were issued to Danny DeVito and affiliates for services,
|
4)
|
4,606,307 shares were issued to noteholders in satisfaction of $2,125,625 of debt and $177,529 of accrued interest, and
|
5)
|
1,000,000 shares were issued to Capstone as part of the Termination Agreement.
|
Also, pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, the Company issued 1 share of Series A Preferred Stock valued at $100,000 to the Company’s Chief Executive Officer for services and 916,603 shares of Series B Preferred Stock valued at $1,833,206 to Capstone as part of the Termination Agreement.
The one share of Series A Preferred Stock entitles the holder to two votes for every share of Common Stock Deemed Outstanding and has no conversion or dividend rights. Each share of the Series B Preferred Stock has a liquidation preference of $2.00 per share, has no voting rights, and is convertible into Common Stock at the lower of (1) $2.00 per share or, (2) the volume weighted average price per share (“VWAP”) for the 20 trading days immediately prior to the Conversion Date. The Series B Preferred Stock has been classified as a liability (pursuant to ASC 480-10-25-14(a)) since it embodies a conditional obligation that the Company may settle by issuing a variable number of equity shares and the monetary value of the obligation is based on a fixed monetary amount known at inception.
In the three months ended September 30, 2009, a total of $122,500 of debt and $28,147 of accrued interest was converted into a total of 300,110 shares of Company common stock.
On August 19, 2009, the Company sold 1,000,000 restricted shares of its common stock at $.50 per share, including 1,000,000 five year warrants with an exercise price of $1.00 per share (which was reduced to $0.01 per share on December 14, 2009 in connection with a $100,000 loan from the investor) and 1,000,000 five year warrants with an exercise price of $1.50 per share, to an investor for total proceeds of $500,000.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
December 31, 2010 and 2009
On October 6, 2009, the Company issued 1,000,000 restricted shares of its common stock to a consultant pursuant to a one month consulting agreement for financial services. The Company included this issuance in its consolidated statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2009 in consulting fees at the $200,000 estimated fair value of the shares.
On January 6 and 13, 2010, the Company issued a total of 200,000 restricted shares of common stock, 100,000 five year warrants exercisable at $0.22 per share, and 100,000 five year warrants exercisable at $0.23 per share, along with two promissory notes in the amount of $110,000 each (one due March 31, 2010 and one due May 31, 2010), to an investor in exchange for a $200,000 loan. The fair value of $78,930 of the common stock ($45,000) and warrants ($33,930), along with the $20,000 discount, were recorded as debt discounts, which were amortized over the terms of the notes as interest expense. The warrants were valued using the Black-Scholes option pricing model and the following assumptions: risk free interest rates of 2.6% and 2.55%, volatility of 100%, and terms of five years.
On April 19, 2010, the Company agreed to issue the noteholder of the $220,000 of debt 250,000 restricted shares of its common stock in consideration of the noteholder’s extension of the due date (from March 31, 2010 to May 31, 2010) of a $110,000 promissory note. The $21,400 fair value of the common stock at the commitment date was expensed during the three months ended June 30, 2010 and included in interest expense. The Company expects to issue these shares in the near future. Based on the 200,000 shares of common stock and 200,000 warrants to purchase common stock issued to this noteholder in January 2010 and the 250,000 shares of common stock issued to him in April 2010, this noteholder received an aggregate of stock-based consideration of $100,930 during the year ended December 31, 2010 on his $220,000 of debt, in addition to the Company incurring interest at 13% on the $220,000 of promissory notes.
On January 15 and 25, 2010, the Company issued a total of 152,546 shares of common stock to three investors in satisfaction of a total of $62,500 of convertible debt and approximately $13,773 of accrued interest.
On February 8, 2010, the Company issued 250,000 restricted shares of common stock and 1,000,000 warrants to Tony Siragusa pursuant to the License Agreement described in Note 7 above.
On February 24, 2010, the Company issued 300,000 restricted shares of common stock to CorProminence pursuant to a 45 day consulting agreement dated January 4, 2010. The $69,000 fair value of the common stock at date of issuance was expensed in full in the three months ended March 31, 2010 and included in consulting fees.
On March 16, 2010, the Company issued 2,000,000 restricted shares of common stock and 2,000,000 five year warrants exercisable at $0.25 per share to Cresta Capital Strategies pursuant to a one year extension of a consulting agreement. The fair value of the common stock ($350,000) and warrants ($246,000) at the date of issuance was initially capitalized as a “Prepaid Expense”. The $596,000 total was fully expensed in the year ended December 31, 2010 and included in “Consulting Fees” since the Company had become substantially out of business due to the seizure of its assets by a lender as described in Note 3. The warrants were valued using the Black-Scholes option pricing model and the following assumptions: risk free interest rate of 2.37%, volatility of 100%, and term of five years.
On April 19, 2010, the Company satisfied debt totaling $455,635 through its commitment to issue to the respective 5 creditors a total of 4,556,350 shares of its common stock and 4,556,350 three year warrants exercisable at $0.20 per share. The Company expects to issue these shares and warrants in the near future.
On June 22, 2010, 8 shareholders representing a majority of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock approved an amendment to the Company’s Articles of Incorporation to increase the number of authorized shares of common stock from 100,000,000 shares to 2,500,000,000 shares.
10. INCOME TAXES
No provision for income taxes was recorded in the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009 since the Company incurred net losses in these periods.
Based on management’s present assessment, the Company has not yet determined it to be more likely than not that a deferred tax asset of approximately $3,150,000 attributable to the future utilization of the net operating loss carryforward of approximately $9,000,000 as of December 31, 2010 will be realized. Accordingly, the Company has maintained a 100% valuation allowance against the deferred tax asset in the financial statements at December 31, 2010. The Company will continue to review this valuation allowance and make adjustments as appropriate. During the year ended December 31, 2010, the valuation allowance increased by $525,000.
Current United States income tax laws limit the amount of loss available to be offset against future taxable income when a substantial change in ownership occurs. Therefore, the amount available to offset future taxable income may be limited.

11. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Leases – Company Evicted from Facility
The Company occupied its facilities in Freeport, New York up until March 2009 under a month to month agreement at a monthly rent of $14,350. In March 2009, the Company moved its facilities to Lindenhurst, New York pursuant to a three year lease agreement providing for annual rentals ranging from $85,100 to $90,283. Provided certain conditions were met, the Company had an option to renew the lease for an additional two years at annual rentals ranging from $92,991 to $95,781. On September 14, 2010, the Second District Court of Suffolk County issued a Warrant of Eviction removing the Company from its facilities. At December 31, 2010, accounts payable includes $22,913 of unpaid rent due to the former Lindenhurst landlord. The Company has incurred no additional costs that would be chargeable to operations as a result of the seizure of the premises, including seized assets or out-of-pocket expenses incidental to seizure. Also at December 31, 2010, accounts payable includes $450,021 of unpaid rent and penalties due the Freeport landlord.
For the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, rent expense was $69,639 and $117,329 ($42,202 relating to the Freeport facilities; $75,127 relating to the Lindenhurst facilities), respectively.
Licensing Agreements
Danny DeVito Brand
On April 26, 2007 and as amended November 1, 2007, the Company entered into an exclusive License Agreement with Seven Cellos, LLC (“DDV”), pursuant to which the Company was granted a limited license of certain rights in and to Danny DeVito’s name, likeness and biography for use by the Company in connection with the Danny DeVito Premium Limoncello brand. The term of the Agreement was to continue through perpetuity unless otherwise terminated. In consideration for the license, the Company agreed to pay royalties as follows: a) 5% of Net Profits (as defined) to Behr Abrahamson & Kaller, LLP (“BAK”), (b) a payment of 50% of the remaining Net Profits to DDV after the payment described above; and (c) a payment of 2% of Net Profits
to Sichenzia Ross Friedman Ference LLP after payment of 50% of Net Profits to DDV.
On August 20, 2010, the Company and DDV terminated the License Agreement. In the year ended December 31, 2010, the Danny DeVito Premium Limoncello brand accounted for approximately 96% of total sales.
For the periods presented, the Company calculated agreement defined cumulative “Net Profits” from the brand to be negative and thus did not pay or accrue any royalty expense under the License Agreement. The Termination Agreement provides that DDV has not waived or otherwise prejudiced any of its rights with respect to the Company’s past conduct with respect to the brand, including DDV’s right to accrued and unpaid royalties based upon its right to inspect Company records and conduct an audit of the Company reported agreement defined net profit.
Godfather Brand
On June 12, 2009, Iconic Imports, Inc., the wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, entered into a merchandising license agreement (the “License Agreement”) with Paramount Licensing Inc. (“PLI”) granting Iconic Imports the non-exclusive right to use the title of the theatrical motion picture “The Godfather” in connection with the development, importation, marketing, and distribution of an Italian organic vodka and Scotch whiskey throughout the United States. Under the terms of the License Agreement, which had a term of 5 years ending on June 30, 2014 and could be extended to June 30, 2019 upon certain conditions unless it is sooner terminated, the Company agreed to pay PLI a royalty fee of five percent (5%) and guarantee a total of $400,000 in royalties due as follows; (1) $60,000 as an advance payment due upon signing of the License Agreement, (2) $100,000 due on or before November 1, 2010, (3) $100,000 due on or before November 1, 2011, and (4) $140,000 due on or before November 1, 2012. In addition, PLI was granted warrants to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock in substantially the same form as other warrants previously issued, which is (a) a five-year warrant to purchase 1,000,000 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $1.00 per share; and (b) a five-year warrant to purchase 1,333,334 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $1.50 per share. On August 12, 2009, the Company paid $60,000 to PLI as the advance royalty due under the License Agreement. The License Agreement became effective on this date as the advance payment was a condition precedent to the effectiveness of the License Agreement.
The Company never commenced sales of the product named “The Godfather”. The second royalty payment of $100,000 due on November 1, 2010 was not paid. On February 23, 2011, PLI terminated the License Agreement due to nonpayment.

Tony Siragusa Brand
On January 15, 2010, we entered into an exclusive License Agreement with Tony Siragusa, pursuant to which we were granted a limited license to certain rights in and to Tony Siragusa’s name, likeness and biography for use by us in connection with Tony Siragusa’s YO Vodka. The term of the agreement was four (4) years. In consideration for the license, we agreed to distribute net profits of the venture as follows: 42.5% to the Company, 42.5% to the licensor, 10% to William Morris Endeavor Entertainment, LLC and 5% to Brian Hughes. In addition, we issued 250,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, 5 year warrants to purchase 500,000 shares of our Common Stock at a price of $1.00 per share, and 5 year warrants to purchase 500,000 shares of our Common Stock at a price of $1.50 per share. Tony Siragusa agreed to use reasonable efforts to be available for a reasonable number of promotional appearances during each consecutive 12 months period, the duration of each would not exceed six
days. On September 28, 2010, Capstone Capital Group I, LLC acquired the License Agreement rights (see Note 3).
For the year ended December 31, 2010, the Company calculated agreement defined net profits from the brand to be negative and thus did not pay or accrue any royalty expense under the License Agreement. The product was never introduced to the market.
Under the License Agreement, Tony Siragusa had the right to terminate the agreement, upon 10 days written notice to the Company, if the Company failed to launch the distribution of and secure availability to the general public of the beverage throughout the United States prior to June 1, 2010. The License Agreement did not provide for financial penalties that would be accruable by the Company in the event of a default.
Chief Executive Officer Employment Agreement
On January 23, 2008, the Company entered into an employment agreement with its Chief Executive Officer Richard DeCicco. The agreement provided for a term of 5 years, commencing on January 1, 2008.

The agreement provided for the grant of a non-qualified ten year option to purchase up to 1,000,000 shares of common stock of the Company at an exercise price which shall represent a discount to the market price. Mr. DeCicco had the right to terminate the agreement upon 60 days notice to the Company for any reason. Pursuant
to the terms of the agreement, if Mr. DeCicco was absent from work because of illness or incapacity cumulatively for more than 2 months in addition to vacation time in any calendar year, the Company could terminate the agreement upon 30 days written notice. The agreement also provided that the agreement could be terminated upon 90 days notice to Mr. DeCicco if: (A) there was a sale of substantially all of the Company’s assets to a single purchaser or group of associated purchasers; (B) there was a sale, exchange or disposition of 50% of the outstanding shares of the Company’s outstanding stock; (C) the Company terminated its business or liquidated its assets; or (D) there was a merger or consolidation of the Company in which the Company’s shareholders received less than 50% of the outstanding voting shares of the new or continuing corporation. Mr. DeCicco was entitled to severance pay in the amount of 2 years compensation and medical and other benefits in the event of a termination of the agreement under certain circumstances.
“Administrative compensation, payroll taxes, and other fringe benefits” includes approximately $132,500 and $265,000 Officer’s compensation for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively, for the Chief Executive Officer of the Company. “Accrued expenses and other current liabilities” includes approximately $528,000 and $409,000 at December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively, representing unpaid Officer’s compensation due to this officer at these dates.

Mr. Blacker resigned September 15, 2010.

December 31, 2010 and 2009
The $16,850 estimated fair value of the 300,000 options (using the Black-Scholes option pricing model and the following assumptions: $0.10 stock price, 4% risk free interest rate, 100% volatility, and term of 3.5 years) was amortized over the 3 year. term of the employment agreement as administrative compensation and benefits
“Administrative compensation, payroll taxes, and other fringe benefits” includes approximately $75,000 and $150,000 Officer’s compensation for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively, for the Chief Financial Officer of the Company. “Accrued expenses and other current liabilities” includes approximately $233,000 and $169,000 at December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively, representing unpaid Officer’s compensation due to this officer at these dates.
Litigation
The Company is party to a variety of legal proceedings brought by suppliers and creditors. We accrue for these items as losses become probable and can be reasonably estimated. Most of the amounts sought have already been provided for through previous charges to operations and are included in Company liabilities at December 31, 2010 and 2009. While the results of these legal proceedings, which principally involve debt and lease default obligations and vendor disputes, cannot be predicted with certainty, management believes that the final outcome of these proceedings will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s future consolidated results of operations and financial position.

Non-binding Letter of Intent to Acquire 45% Membership Interest in United Spirits, LLC
On September 12, 2012, the Company announced the signing of a non-binding Letter of Intent (the “LOI”) to acquire 45% of the membership units of United Spirits, LLC (“Spirits”) owned by the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, Richard DeCicco. Spirits is a two member Florida limited liability company which was formed on December 16, 2011. Spirits is a startup company that has been financed by the other managing member who has contributed cash for his member’s capital account, plus loans to the new entity, while Mr. DeCicco has contributed rights to certain brands and limited operating assets to the new entity, which commenced operations on January 20, 2012. The Operating Agreement of Spirits requires among other things that Spirits shall allocate losses pro rata to members accounts and thereafter with respect to the respective percentage interests; and then first allocate profits to members who have contributed capital contributions in cash, or made loans that are still outstanding to that member by Spirits, and thereafter in accordance with their percentage interests.
Spirits has had only nominal revenues and its only tangible asset consists of approximately $300,000 of branded inventory at cost. It has incurred substantive losses from operations during the startup period for incurring expenses such as payroll (including the managing members), promotion, travel and entertainment and rent.
The exact nature of the acquisition is still being negotiated and the purchase price to be paid by the Company, which was not specified in the LOI, to Mr. DeCicco has not been agreed upon. The Company intends for Spirits to assist the Company in sourcing new brands as they are acquired or developed internally.
As material terms have yet to be negotiated or agreed to, there is no assurance that the acquisition of membership units will close and, if it closes, that the terms will be favorable to the Company.
