PART I

 

ITEM 1.BUSINESS.

 

Corporate Overview and History of The MaryJane Group, Inc.

 

The Company was incorporated in Nevada on February 16, 2012 for the purpose of developing online chat systems free of charge. The Company was unable to raise sufficient funds to implement its business plan. On February 26, 2014, Joel Schneider, entered into a share purchase agreement with Lisbeth Guerrero, the Company’s former sole officer and director, pursuant to which he purchased 8,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, representing 77.2% of the issued and outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock on that date. In connection with the purchase, Ms. Guerrero resigned as sole officer and director and Mr. Schneider became our sole officer and director.

 

As a result of being unable to properly fund and build our business of developing online chart systems, we were considered a “shell company” under the rules of the Commission. On February 27, 2014, we entered into and closed the CGC Exchange Agreement and on March 14, 2014, we entered into and closed the Mary Jane Group Exchange Agreement, as outlined hereinabove. As a result, we (i) closed a transaction to acquire CGC, (ii) closed a transaction to acquire the Mary Jane Group, (iii) ceased being a shell company upon the acquisition of its five operating subsidiaries, and (iv) experienced a change in control in which Mr. Schneider and the former shareholders of CGC and the Mary Jane Group acquired control of the Company.

 

Unless otherwise stated or unless the context otherwise requires, the description of our business set forth below is provided on a combined basis, taking into account our newly-acquired wholly owned subsidiaries mentioned herein.

 

Overview of Operating Businesses

 

On January 1, 2014, the State of Colorado became the first state to legalize the use of recreational marijuana. Colorado residents, who are at least 21 years of age with photo identification, may purchase as much as one ounce of marijuana in a single transaction. Non-Colorado residents, bearing the same identification, may purchase as much as one-quarter ounce. Marijuana cannot be consumed in any public space, including the shops where it was purchased. Our five operating subsidiaries, as outlined herein, were formed for the purpose of providing financing to assist Colorado marijuana growers, providing cannabis friendly lodging and to provide value added services of information and entertainment to the consumers supporting the recreational marijuana industry.

 

The Company is a holding company for its nine subsidiaries: Capital Growth Corporation, a Colorado corporation, and Mary Jane Entertainment, LLC, Mile High Life, LLC (inactive), Dab City Radio (inactive), Mary Jane Tours, LLC, Mary Jane Glassworks, LLC, Bud and Breakfast, LLC, Mary Jane Hospitality, LLC (newly formed) and Mary Jane Events, LLC (newly formed), each a Colorado limited liability company.

5
 

Capital Growth Corporation, organized on February 4, 2014, was formed for the purpose of providing short- and long-term financing to assist growers and retail establishments engaged in the manufacture and distribution of recreational marijuana within the State of Colorado. Since its formation, Capital Growth has not entered into any funding transactions. The Company utilizes Capital Growth as a business development company.

 

Mary Jane Tours, LLC, organized on April 15, 2013 (“Mary Jane Tours”), was formed to provide a unique Colorado cannabis experience at a competitive price to capitalize on the rapidly growing recreational marijuana industry. Currently, Mary Jane Tours operates as a concierge service, whereby we book tours that are conducted by an independent operator. We receive a fluctuating percentage of the gross proceeds of tours book through depending on which type of tour is booked.

 

Mary Jane Entertainment, LLC, organized on May 21, 2013 (“Mary Jane Entertainment”), was formed to provide contracted limousine and party-bus services. Mary Jane Entertainment continues to operate on a limited basis.

 

Mary Jane Glassworks, LLC, organized on April 10, 2014, was formed to manufacture American-made glass pipes, bubblers, bongs and other glass products used in the consumption of marijuana and production of marijuana byproducts. We initially began operations of Mary Jane Glassworks as a full glass blowing factory, wherein we manufactured the products described above. However, as a result of continued losses, we streamlined this business to a sandblasting operation whereby we purchase manufactured glass products like jars, mugs, glasses etc. and either put our logo or private label these items to be sold in our facilities or the facility of our private label customers. In addition we operate our apparel division “Denver Nugs” under Mary Jane Glassworks, the apparel division operates similar to the current operations of Mary Jane Glassworks, in that we either create our own designs of contract manufacture private label apparel for dispensaries, head shops, and other businesses both within and outside the cannabis industry.

 

Bud and Breakfast, LLC, organized on April 10, 2014, was formed to operate and manage our marijuana-friendly bed and breakfast located at The Adagio, 1430 Race Street, Denver, Colorado. The Bud and Breakfast, LLC is our most successful business operation and management’s plan is to focus on this business opportunity and we actively seeking locations to open additional Bud and Breakfasts.

 

Mary Jane Hospitality, LLC, organized on July 22, 2014, was formed to seek additional lodging and hospitality businesses that are not only located within the State of Colorado, but in other jurisdictions as recreational marijuana becomes legal in other states throughout the United States.

 

Mary Jane Events, LLC, organized on July 22, 2014, was formed for the purposes of planning private and corporate events focused upon the recreational/medicinal marijuana industry.

 

Dab City Radio (“Dab City Radio”) and Mile High Life, LLC f/k/a Mile High Time, LLC, organized on February 16, 2014 and October 13, 2013, respectively, were formed to be the promotional arms of Mary Jane Tours and MaryJane Entertainment. Through Dab City Radio and Mile High Life, we advertised and marketed Mary Jane Tours and the Bud and Breakfast through Internet radio broadcasting and newsprint. As the only BMI and ASCAP-licensed Internet radio station, DabCityRadio.com can legally play mainstream music. When we subsequently became a member of the Colorado Broadcast Association, it boosted our credibility and increased the legitimacy for our business offerings. In November 2013, Mile High Life (under the name Mile High Times) released its first newspaper in print. On June 9, 2014, we terminated the operations of Mile High Times due to continued losses in our operations and our inability to adequately compete with the larger and more established newspapers/magazines in the cannabis sector. The operations of Dab City Radio were also terminated due to continued losses and our inability to generate enough advertising income to cover its cost of operations.

Our Products

 

Bud and Breakfast at the Adagio

 

On April 10, 2014, we entered into a one-year lease with the owner of the Adagio Bed and Breakfast located at 1430 Race Street, Denver, Colorado (the “Adagio”). We transformed the Adagio from a traditional bed and breakfast to the first, all-inclusive “Bud and Breakfast” in what our management believes to be the first of its kind. The guest package includes a wake and bake breakfast, a 4:20 Happy hour and the best marijuana and marijuana edibles Colorado has to offer. We provide our guests an on-site chef who prepares a gourmet breakfast and afternoon hors d’oeuvres. Since beginning operations at The Bud and Breakfast in April 2014, bookings and residency rates have increased dramatically and it is currently generating approximately $40,000-$45,000 of revenue per month. In addition, The Bud and Breakfast allows us to book tours and sell our glass products and apparel to guests. As a result of our success at the Adagio, management is actively seeking additional lodging facilities and expects to open a second location during the next 60 days.

 

We use the outside patio of the Adagio as a smoking lounge where members pay a $50 monthly or $300 annual membership fee for access to the lounge. The smoking lounge provides a safe haven for tourists seeking a place to enjoy their favorite marijuana products. We market the lounge through dispensaries, head shops, and through concierge services at Denver’s finer hotels.

 

Mary Jane Tours

 

Mary Jane Tours provides cannabis-friendly tours and offers customizable packages. Our tours begin at the Adagio with luxury transportation provided by an independent contractor. Each tour takes our patrons to a dispensary where they receive 20% off any purchase with their paid tour receipt. The tour continues with sightseeing through Denver and ends back at the Adagio where guests can use the outside smoking lounge to sample their purchases. At the end of each tour guests receive a gift bag containing some of our glass and/or apparel. Each tour lasts approximately two hours and costs $149 per person.

 

Mary Jane Entertainment

 

Mary Jane Entertainment provides professional photography, graphic design services, rentals of limousines and party buses, music recording and sound engineering, custom T-shirt and apparel manufacturing, banners, sublimation printing, event planning, company branding, and fundraising. All professional services are priced by the hour.

 

Dab City Radio

 

Dab City Radio was a licensed internet radio station. Due to continued losses the Company terminated the operations of Dab City Radio.

Mile High Life

 

Mile High Life, f/k/a Mile High Times, launched in November 2013 and delivered an outlook on Denver and Colorado in general, and its respective communities, with reports from the front lines on music, art, sports, entertainment, lifestyle and more. Due to continued losses and our inability to compete with more established competitors, we discontinued operations of Mile High Life in June, 2014 after the publication of our June issue.

 

MaryJane Glassworks, LLC

 

We formed MaryJane Glassworks, LLC on April 10, 2014 and launched its initial product line at the High Times Cannabis Cup on April 19-20, 2014. MaryJane Glassworks manufactured American-made glass pipes, bubblers, bongs and other glass products used in the consumption of marijuana and production of marijuana byproducts. However, as a result of continued losses, we streamlined this business to a sandblasting operation whereby we purchase manufactured glass products like jars, mugs, glasses etc. and either put our logo or private label these items to be sold in our facilities or the facility of our private label customers. In addition we operate our apparel division “Denver Nugs” under Mary Jane Glassworks, the apparel division operates similar to the current operations of Mary Jane Glassworks, in that we either create our own designs of contract manufacture private label apparel for dispensaries, head shops, and other businesses both within and outside the cannabis industry.

 

Mary Jane Hospitality, LLC and Mary Jane Events, LLC

 

Both these entities were formed on July 22, 2014 and have not commenced operations. Mary Jane Hospitality, LLC was formed for the purposes of owning and operating additional lodging properties. Mary Jane Events, LLC was formed for the purposes organizing events to be held the Company’s facilities.

 

Overview of Marketing Plan and Positioning

 

Our marketing strategy is a simple one -- satisfied customers are our best marketing tool. Social media will play a huge role in our success. We distribute advertising brochures to local businesses throughout Denver and surrounding cities. Our sales and marketing teams use traditional grassroots methods to reach out to our demographics. Direct mail will be used to contact cannabis-friendly businesses throughout the United States.

 

The Bud and Breakfast has already positioned itself as the only full cannabis friendly lodging facility with the City of Denver and the State of Colorado. As a result we have been featured and or mentioned in a number of news outlets including ABC News, New York Times and the Huffington Post to name a few. Our tours will position us to expand our brand recognition throughout the state of Colorado. Our Internet radio show are already distributed and being broadcasted to our target market.

 

The tours are reasonably priced for the recreational marijuana consumer, the tours are marketed through our website and directly to our guests at the Bud and Breakfast. We have changed our business model for our tour offerings from that of being the owner and operator of the vehicles, to simply a concierge/booking service. We have contracted with an independent limousine operator who provides the transportation for our tour guests. We typically net approximately 50% of the revenues derived from the tours.

 

Sales Strategy

 

Colorado is currently considered the cannabis capital of the United States. The cannabis industry is expected to earn over $2 billion in product sales and tourism by the end of 2014. Our target market is the recreational marijuana consumers who are 21 to 75 years of age. They are college students, young professionals, blue and white collar workers, patients, senior citizens, moms, dads, teachers, and students. This demographic is increased 5,000% when adding out of state and international visitors. The desire to indulge in the recreational marijuana experience is larger than ever and the market is positioned for a company like The MaryJane Group to

8
 

provide that experience. All ages are flocking to Colorado for the Green rush for cannabis products including raw bud, concentrates, and infused edibles and drinks. The Company’s Bud and Breakfast, tours and events provide our patrons with the ultimate Green experience. All these products appeal to all ages, sexes and ethnicities.

 

Colorado has very strict laws regarding the possession of and public consumption of recreational marijuana. As such, our companies provide across the board products and services to meet the needs of every cannabis connoisseur from every demographic by providing safe access to their cannabis experience from beginning to end.

 

The MaryJane Group is evolving into a world-class marijuana promotional organization through carefully building successful businesses in the cannabis industry and then leveraging that experience to meet the industry’s needs. By strategically laying the foundation as the “Green Rush” was gaining momentum, we have built a recognizable brand and will be leveraging this recognition to provide tourism, information, and entertainment via carefully chosen channels that cater to the interests of the marijuana community.

 

The Bud and Breakfast provides its guests with a one of a kind experience in which they can consume their favorite cannabis product in a safe and beautiful environment. Mary Jane Tours will continue to leverage the historical experience in Colorado as the first state to legalize recreational marijuana by providing unique luxury tours. Dab City Radio will continue to celebrate the marijuana culture while expanding into a growing national base. All three divisions provide a tremendous amount of advertising potential that will continue to drive revenue growth. Management believes it has established a solid foundation in a rapidly growing industry.

 

Intellectual Property

 

We do not have any patents or registered trademarks at this time.

 

Competition and Our Competitive Advantage

 

At present we do not believe there is any competitors for our Bed and Breakfast, however there is no assurance that additional cannabis friendly lodging facilities will be established in the future, which if that happens will cause competition to our Bed and Breakfast. Competition may come from entities that are better financed then our company. Mary Jane Tours’ main competitor is My 420 Tours, a company that has built a national following due to publicity received from talk shows and news media. They were the first cannabis tour company in Colorado; however, they lack the variety of our tours, usually just visiting marijuana growing facilities and not offering the personal services and amenities that we offer.

 

Mary Jane Glassworks competes with a number of companies that are more established and better financed. At present we find it difficult to compete with these entities and management has decided to limit the operation of Mary Jane Glassworks to manufacturing smaller pieces and jars primarily to promote our brand name.

 

Government Regulation

 

Our products and services do not require licensing and are not subject to any governmental regulation.

 

Employees

 

We currently have 15 employees.

ITEM 2.PROPERTIES.

 

Our principal office, and that of our subsidiaries, is located at 910 Sixteenth Street, Suite 412, Denver, Colorado 80202 where we lease 1,126 square feet of office space. We entered into the three-year lease on July 21, 2014. The lease expires on July 31, 2017. The monthly rent through July 31, 2015 is $1,505; thereafter it increases to $1,600 and $1,700 on August 1, 2015 and 2016, respectively. We believe that the leased premises are suitable and adequate to meet our current needs.

 

We lease the Adagio, a 7,000 square foot Victorian located at 1430 Race Street, Denver, Colorado which is the location of our Bud and Breakfast. The lease is for one (1) year and expires on April 10, 2015. The monthly rent is $9,000 plus 2.5% of the gross monthly revenue.

ITEM 7.MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

 

Management’s Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation

 

You should read the following discussion and analysis in conjunction with the information set forth under our consolidated financial statements and the notes to those financial statements included elsewhere in this Annual Report. This discussion contains forward-looking statements based upon current expectations that involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results may differ materially from those contained in or implied by any forward-looking statements.

 

Company Overview

 

On January 1, 2014, the State of Colorado became the first state to legalize the use of recreational marijuana. Colorado residents, who are at least 21 years of age with photo identification, may purchase as much as one ounce of marijuana in a single transaction. Non-Colorado residents, bearing the same identification, may purchase as much as one-quarter ounce. Marijuana cannot be consumed in any public space, including the shops where it was purchased. Our five operating subsidiaries, as outlined herein, were formed for the purpose of providing financing to assist Colorado marijuana growers, providing cannabis friendly lodging and to provide value added services of information and entertainment to the consumers supporting the recreational marijuana industry.

 

We are a holding company for its nine subsidiaries: Capital Growth Corporation, a Colorado corporation, and Mary Jane Entertainment, LLC, Mile High Life, LLC (inactive), Dab City Radio (inactive), Mary Jane Tours, LLC, Mary Jane Glassworks, LLC, Bud and Breakfast, LLC, Mary Jane Hospitality, LLC (newly formed) and Mary Jane Events, LLC (newly formed), each a Colorado limited liability company.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

We will be dependent upon obtaining additional financing in order to adequately fund working capital, infrastructure, expansion expenses and significant marketing/investor related expenditures to gain market recognition, so that it can achieve a level of revenue adequate to support its cost structure, none of which can be assured. We believe that we will need approximately $2 million over the next twelve months. While initial operations have been funded with private placements of equity and bridge loans, there can be no assurance that adequate financing will continue to be available, and, if available, be on terms that are favorable. Our cash balance at April 30, 2014 was $3,431.

 

We believe that we will achieve operating profitability during the quarter ending October 31, 2014; however, due to conditions and influences out of our control, including the current state of the national economy, we cannot guarantee that profitability will be achieved or that it will be achieved in the stated time frame, nor is there any assurance that such an operating level can ever be achieved.

 

As of April 30, 2014, our working capital deficit was $134,458, our accumulated deficit was $253,464 and our stockholders’ deficit was $163,528. Operating loss was $237,398 and $15,279 for the years ended April 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. Our net loss was $238,140 and $15,279 for the years ended April 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

15
 

On March 18, 2014, we issued an aggregate of $90,000 in 5% Convertible Debentures (the “Debentures”) to two investors. The Debentures are due and payable on or before March 20, 2017, including accrued interest calculated at 5% per annum. The Debentures are convertible into Company Shares at $1.00 per share. The proceeds from the sale of these securities were used for general working capital.

 

On April 7, 2014, we issued an aggregate of $75,000 in Convertible Promissory Notes (the “Notes”) to two investors. The Notes are due and payable on or before April 30, 2015, including accrued interest calculated at 5% per annum. The Notes are convertible into Company Shares at $1.00 per share. The proceeds from the sale of these securities were used for general working capital.

Operating Expenses

 

For the year ended April 30, 2014, general and administration costs were $232,586, sales and marketing costs were $5,892 and depreciation expense was $8,986.

 

Critical Accounting Estimates and New Accounting Pronouncements

 

Critical Accounting Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts and related disclosures in the financial statements. Management considers an accounting estimate to be critical if:

 

if requires assumptions to be made that were uncertain at the time the estimate was made, and

 

changes in the estimate or different estimates that could have been selected could have a material impact on our results of operations or financial condition.

 

We base our estimates and judgments on our experience, our current knowledge, our beliefs of what could occur in the future, our observation of trends in the industry, information provided by our customers and information available from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. We have identified the following accounting policies and estimates as those that we believe are most critical to our financial condition and results of operations and that require management’s most subjective and complex judgments in estimating the effect of inherent uncertainties: share-based compensation expense, income taxes, complex derivative financial instruments and impairment of long-lived assets.

 

Cash

 

For purposes of the Statements of Cash Flows, we consider amounts held by financial institutions and short-term investments with an original maturity of 90 days or less at the time of purchase to be cash and cash equivalents. Beginning January 1, 2013, insurance coverage reverted to $250,000 per depositor at each financial institution, and our non-interest bearing cash balances may exceed federally insured limits. We had no interest-bearing amounts on deposit in excess of federally insured limits at April 30, 2014 and 2013.

16
 

Trade Accounts Receivable

 

Trade accounts receivable are customer obligations due under normal trade terms. We provide an allowance for doubtful accounts, which is based upon a review of outstanding receivables, historical collection information and existing economic conditions. Trade accounts receivable passed due by more than 90 days are considered delinquent. Delinquent receivables are written off based on individual credit evaluations, results of collection efforts, and specific circumstances of the customer. Recoveries of accounts previously written off are recorded as reductions of bad debt expense when received. At April 30, 2014 and 2013, we had no trade accounts receivable.

 

Fixed Assets

 

Fixed assets are stated at cost, net of accumulated depreciation. Maintenance and repair costs, which do not significantly extend the useful lives of the respective assets, are charged to operating expenses as incurred. We use the straight-line method of depreciation for its property and equipment based on the estimated useful lives of the assets, generally three to five years.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

We recognize revenue in accordance with ASC Topic 605, Revenue Recognition, which requires 1) evidence of an arrangement, 2) delivery of the product or service, 3) a fixed or determinable price, and 4) assurance of collection within a reasonable period of time.

 

Fair value of financial instruments

 

In accordance with the reporting requirements of ASC Topic 825, Financial Instruments, we calculate the fair value of its assets and liabilities which qualify as financial instruments under this standard and includes this additional information in the notes to the financial statements when the fair value is different than the carrying value of those financial instruments. We do not have any assets or liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring or a non-recurring basis, consequently, we did not have any fair value adjustments for assets and liabilities measured at fair value at the balance sheet date, nor gains or losses reported in the statements of operations that are attributable to the change in unrealized gains or losses relating to those assets and liabilities still held during the years ended April 30, 2014 and 2013.

 

Income Taxes

 

Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which the related temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized when the rate change is enacted. Valuation allowances are recorded to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount that will more likely than not be realized.

 

In accordance with ASC Topic 740, Income Taxes, we recognize the effect of uncertain income tax positions only if the positions are more likely than not of being sustained in an audit, based on the technical merits of the position. Recognized uncertain income tax positions are measured at the largest amount that is greater than 50% likely of being realized. Changes in recognition or measurement are reflected in the period in which those changes in judgment occur. We recognize both interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions as part of the income tax provision.

17
 

Basic Income (Loss) Per Share

 

We calculate earnings per share (“EPS”) in accordance with ASC Topic 260, Earnings Per Share, which requires the computation and disclosure of two EPS amounts, basic and diluted. Basic EPS is computed based on the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS is computed based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding plus all potentially dilutive common shares outstanding during the period. Such potential dilutive common shares consist of stock options and warrants to purchase common stock of the Company of which the Company had none at April 30, 2014 and 2013.

 

Stock Based Compensation

 

We recognize compensation expense for all stock based payments granted based on the grant date fair value estimated in accordance with ASC Topic 718, Share Based Payments. Compensation expense is generally recognized on a straight-line basis over the employee’s requisite service period based on the award’s estimated lives for fixed awards with ratable vesting provisions. We recognize no stock based compensation during the years ended April 30, 2014 and 2013.

 

Use of Estimates

 

Our consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance GAAP. The preparation of these consolidated financial statements requires us to make significant estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. We evaluate our estimates, including those related to contingencies, on an ongoing basis. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

 

Recently Issued and Newly Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

 

During the year ended April 30, 2014 and through August 28, 2014 there were several new accounting pronouncements issued by the FASB. Each of these pronouncements, as applicable, has been or will be adopted. We do not believe the adoption of any of these accounting pronouncements has had or will have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

On June 8, 2014, Jose Ramirez, our Chief Operating Officer, tendered his 60-day resignation.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

 

To the Board of Directors

The Maryjane Group Inc. and Subsidiaries

 

We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of The Maryjane Group Inc. and Subsidiaries as of April 30, 2014 and 2013, and the related statements of operations, stockholders’ deficit and cash flows for the periods then ended. 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 audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of The Maryjane Group Inc. and Subsidiaries as of April 30, 2014 and 2013 and the results of its operations and cash flows for the periods then ended in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America.

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note #2 to the financial statements, although the Company has limited operations it has yet to attain profitability. This raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plan in regard to these matters is also described in Note #2. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION AND NATURE OF BUSINESS

 

The MaryJane Group, Inc., f/k/a Pladeo Corp., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”) was incorporated in Nevada on February 16, 2012 for the purpose of developing online chat systems free of charge. The Company was unable to raise sufficient funds to implement its business plan. As a result of being unable to properly fund and build our business of developing online chart systems, we were considered a “shell company” under the rules of the Commission. On February 26, 2014, Joel Schneider, entered into a share purchase agreement with Lisbeth Guerrero, the Company’s former sole officer and director, pursuant to which he purchased 8,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, representing 77.2% of the issued and outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock on that date (the “Share Purchase Agreement”). In connection with the purchase, Ms. Guerrero resigned as sole officer and director and Mr. Schneider became our sole officer and director.

 

On February 27, 2014, we entered into and closed a Securities Exchange Agreement by and among Company, Capital Growth Corporation, a Colorado corporation (“CGC”), and the shareholders of CGC on February 27, 2014 (the “CGC Acquisition”) and on March 14, 2014, we entered into and closed a Securities Exchange Agreement between the Company and the managing member of Mary Jane Entertainment, LLC, Mile High Times, LLC, Mary Jane Tours, LLC, and Dab City Radio, LLC, each a Colorado limited liability company (referred to individually by name or collectively as the “Mary Jane companies”) (the “Mary Jane companies Acquisition”). As a result, we ceased being a shell company upon the acquisition of the five operating subsidiaries.

 

Thereafter, the Company changed its name to The MaryJane Group, Inc. Subsequent to completing the CGC and Mary Jane companies Acquisitions, the we formed the following Colorado limited liability corporations as wholly-owned subsidiaries, namely: Mary Jane Glassworks, LLC and Bud and Breakfast, LLC, (both organized on April 10, 2014) and Mary Jane Hospitality, LLC and Mary Jane Events, LLC (both organized on July 22, 2014).

 

Overview of Operating Businesses

 

On January 1, 2014, the State of Colorado became the first state to legalize the use of recreational marijuana. Colorado residents, who are at least 21 years of age with photo identification, may purchase as much as one ounce of marijuana in a single transaction. Non-Colorado residents, bearing the same identification, may purchase as much as one-quarter ounce. Marijuana cannot be consumed in any public space, including the shops where it was purchased. Our operating subsidiaries, as outlined herein, were formed for the purpose of providing financing to assist Colorado marijuana growers, providing cannabis friendly lodging and to provide value added services of information and entertainment to the consumers supporting the recreational marijuana industry.

 

Capital Growth Corporation, organized on February 4, 2014 (“Capital Growth”), was formed for the purpose of providing short- and long-term financing to assist growers and retail establishments engaged in the manufacture and distribution of recreational marijuana within the State of Colorado. Since its formation, Capital Growth has not entered into any funding transactions. The Company utilizes Capital Growth as a business development company.

 

Mary Jane Tours, LLC, organized on April 15, 2013 (“Mary Jane Tours”), was formed to provide a unique Colorado marijuana experience at a competitive price to capitalize on the rapidly growing recreational marijuana industry. Currently, Mary Jane Tours operates as a concierge service, whereby we book tours that are conducted by an independent operator. We receive a fluctuating percentage of the gross proceeds of tours book through depending on which type of tour is booked.

NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION AND NATURE OF BUSINESS (Continued)

 

Overview of Operating Businesses (continued)

 

Mary Jane Entertainment, LLC, organized on May 21, 2013 (“Mary Jane Entertainment”), was formed to provide contracted limousine and party-bus services. Mary Jane Entertainment continues to operate on a limited basis.

 

Mary Jane Glassworks, LLC, organized on April 10, 2014, was formed to manufacture American-made glass pipes, bubblers, bongs and other glass products used in the consumption of marijuana and production of marijuana byproducts. We initially began operations of Mary Jane Glassworks as a full glass blowing factory, wherein we manufactured the products described above. However, as a result of continued losses, we streamlined this business to a sandblasting operation whereby we purchase manufactured glass products like jars, mugs, glasses etc. and either put our logo or private label these items to be sold in our facilities or the facility of our private label customers. In addition we operate our apparel division “Denver Nugs” under Mary Jane Glassworks, the apparel division operates similar to the current operations of Mary Jane Glassworks, in that we either create our own designs of contract manufacture private label apparel for dispensaries, head shops, and other businesses both within and outside the cannabis industry.

 

Bud and Breakfast, LLC, organized on April 10, 2014, was formed to operate and manage our marijuana-friendly bed and breakfast located at The Adagio, 1430 Race Street, Denver, Colorado. Our plan is to focus on this business opportunity as we actively seek additional locations.

 

Mary Jane Hospitality, LLC, organized on July 22, 2014, was formed to seek additional lodging and hospitality businesses that are not only located within the State of Colorado, but in other jurisdictions as recreational marijuana becomes legal in other states throughout the United States.

 

Mary Jane Events, LLC, organized on July 22, 2014, was formed for the purposes of planning private and corporate events focused upon the recreational/medicinal marijuana industry.

 

Dab City Radio, LLC (“Dab City Radio”) and Mile High Life, LLC f/k/a Mile High Time, LLC, (“Mile High Life”) organized on February 16, 2014 and October 13, 2013, respectively, were formed to be the promotional arms of Mary Jane Tours and MaryJane Entertainment. On June 9, 2014, we terminated the operations of Mile High Life due to continued losses in our operations and our inability to adequately compete with the larger and more established newspapers/magazines in the cannabis sector. The operations of Dab City Radio was also terminated due to continued losses and our inability to generate enough advertising revenue to cover its cost of operations.

 

Fiscal year end

 

We elected April 30th as our fiscal year ending date.

 

Basis of presentation and going concern uncertainty

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”), which contemplates continuation of the Company as a going concern, dependent upon our ability, among other matters, to establish itself as a profitable business. At April 30, 2014, we had an accumulated deficit of $253,464 and for the year ended April 30, 2014, incurred losses of $238,140.

 

Our ability to continue in business is dependent upon obtaining sufficient financing or attaining profitable operations. However, there can be no assurance that management will be successful in obtaining additional

F-7
  

NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION AND NATURE OF BUSINESS (Continued)

 

Basis of presentation and going concern uncertainty (continued)

 

funding or in attaining profitable operations, and therefore, these matters raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. These consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of these uncertainties, nor do they include adjustments relating to the recoverability and realization of assets and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should we be unable to continue in operation.

 

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Cash

 

For purposes of the Statements of Cash Flows, we consider amounts held by financial institutions and short-term investments with an original maturity of 90 days or less at the time of purchase to be cash and cash equivalents. Beginning January 1, 2013, insurance coverage reverted to $250,000 per depositor at each financial institution, and our non-interest bearing cash balances may exceed federally insured limits. We had no interest-bearing amounts on deposit in excess of federally insured limits at April 30, 2014 and 2013.

 

Trade Accounts Receivable

 

Trade accounts receivable are customer obligations due under normal trade terms. We provide an allowance for doubtful accounts, which is based upon a review of outstanding receivables, historical collection information and existing economic conditions. Trade accounts receivable passed due by more than 90 days are considered delinquent. Delinquent receivables are written off based on individual credit evaluations, results of collection efforts, and specific circumstances of the customer. Recoveries of accounts previously written off are recorded as reductions of bad debt expense when received. At April 30, 2014 and 2013, we had no trade accounts receivable.

 

Fixed Assets

 

Fixed assets are stated at cost, net of accumulated depreciation. Maintenance and repair costs, which do not significantly extend the useful lives of the respective assets, are charged to operating expenses as incurred. We use the straight-line method of depreciation for its property and equipment based on the estimated useful lives of the assets, generally three to five years.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

We recognize revenue in accordance with ASC Topic 605, Revenue Recognition, which requires 1) evidence of an arrangement, 2) delivery of the product or service, 3) a fixed or determinable price, and 4) assurance of collection within a reasonable period of time.

 

Fair value of financial instruments

 

In accordance with the reporting requirements of ASC Topic 825, Financial Instruments, we calculate the fair value of its assets and liabilities which qualify as financial instruments under this standard and includes this additional information in the notes to the financial statements when the fair value is different than the carrying value of those financial instruments. We do not have any assets or liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring or a non-recurring basis, consequently, we did not have any fair value adjustments for assets and liabilities measured at fair value at the balance sheet date, nor gains or losses reported in the statements of operations that are attributable to the change in unrealized gains or losses relating to those assets and liabilities still held during the years ended April 30, 2014 and 2013.

F-8
  

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

 

Income Taxes

 

Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which the related temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized when the rate change is enacted. Valuation allowances are recorded to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount that will more likely than not be realized.

 

In accordance with ASC Topic 740, Income Taxes, we recognize the effect of uncertain income tax positions only if the positions are more likely than not of being sustained in an audit, based on the technical merits of the position. Recognized uncertain income tax positions are measured at the largest amount that is greater than 50% likely of being realized. Changes in recognition or measurement are reflected in the period in which those changes in judgment occur. We recognize both interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions as part of the income tax provision.

 

Basic Income (Loss) Per Share

 

We calculate earnings per share (“EPS”) in accordance with ASC Topic 260, Earnings Per Share, which requires the computation and disclosure of two EPS amounts, basic and diluted. Basic EPS is computed based on the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS is computed based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding plus all potentially dilutive common shares outstanding during the period. Such potential dilutive common shares consist of stock options and warrants to purchase common stock of the Company. Potential common shares totaling 1,497,000 and -0- at April 2014 and 2013, respectively, have been excluded from the diluted earnings per share calculation as they are anti-dilutive due to our reported net loss.

 

Stock Based Compensation

 

We recognize compensation expense for all stock based payments granted based on the grant date fair value estimated in accordance with ASC Topic 718, Share Based Payments. Compensation expense is generally recognized on a straight-line basis over the employee’s requisite service period based on the award’s estimated lives for fixed awards with ratable vesting provisions. We recognize no stock based compensation during the years ended April 30, 2014 and 2013.

 

Use of Estimates

 

Our consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance GAAP. The preparation of these consolidated financial statements requires us to make significant estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. We evaluate our estimates, including those related to contingencies, on an ongoing basis. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

Recently Issued and Newly Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

 

During the year ended April 30, 2014 and through August 28, 2014 there were several new accounting pronouncements issued by the FASB. Each of these pronouncements, as applicable, has been or will be adopted.

NOTE 8 – CAPITAL STOCK

 

Common Stock

 

At April 30, 2014 and 2013, we had 75,000,000 shares of common stock, $0.001 par value authorized (the “Company Shares”), with 17,860,000 and 9,140,000 Company Shares issued and outstanding, respectively.

 

Common Stock Issuances During Fiscal Year 2014

 

During May and June 2013, we entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with multiple investors for the issuance and sale of Company Shares (the “May/June 2013 Private Placement”). The May/June 2013 Private Placement closed on June 21 2013, through which we sold an aggregate of 1,220,000 Company Shares at $0.01 per share, for an aggregate purchase price of $12,200. Company Shares included in the May/June 2013 Private Placement were registered pursuant to a Form S-1 Registration Statement under the Securities Act of 1933 which was deemed effective by the Securities Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on April 12, 2014 (the “April 12, 2014 Form S-1”).

 

On February 27, 2014, pursuant to the terms of the CGC Acquisition, we acquired 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of CGC and 100% of the issued and outstanding Common Stock Purchase Warrants of CGC (the “CGC Warrants”), in exchange for the issuance of an aggregate of 5,000,000 Company Shares and Common Stock Purchase Warrants for the purchase of an aggregate of 1,497,000 Company Shares (the “Company Warrants”). The Company Shares included 4,502,000 shares to be issued to Mr. Schneider, our sole officer and director. The Company Warrants are exercisable for a term of five years commencing six months from the date of issuance at an exercise price of $1.00 per share.

 

On March 14, 2014, pursuant to the terms of the Mary Jane companies Acquisition, we agreed to purchase and the managing member of the Mary Jane companies agreed to sell 100% of their issued and outstanding shares or membership interests (the “Mary Jane companies Stock”) in exchange for an aggregate of 2,500,000 Company Shares. In addition, the number of Company Shares to be issued may be increased, but not decreased, one time only on the first year anniversary of the closing of the Mary Jane companies Acquisition, so as to ensure that the value of the Company shares issued in the transaction exceeds $0.40 per share or an aggregate of $1,000,000.

 

Common Stock Issuances During Fiscal Year 2013

 

During April 2013, we entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with multiple investors for the issuance and sale of Company Shares (the “April 2013 Private Placement”). The April 2013 Private Placement closed on April 28, 2013, through which we sold an aggregate of 1,140,000 Company Shares at $0.01 per share, for an aggregate purchase price of $11,400. Company Shares were registered pursuant to the April 12, 2013 Form S-1.

 

Warrants to Purchase Common Stock of the Company

 

Under the CGC Acquisition, we acquired 100% of the issued and outstanding Common Stock Purchase Warrants of CGC in exchange for the issuance of Common Stock Purchase Warrants for the purchase of an aggregate of 1,497,000 shares of our Company Shares. These warrants are exercisable for a period of five years commencing six months from the date of issuance at an exercise price of $1.00 per share.

F-11
  

NOTE 8 – CAPITAL STOCK (Continued)

 

Stock Options

 

Effective May 9, 2014, we established the MaryJane Group, Inc. 2014 Equity Incentive Plan (“2014 Plan”) pursuant to which 1,000,000 shares of our Company Shares were reserved for issuance upon the exercise of options (“2014 Plan Option(s)”). The 2014 Plan was designed to serve as an incentive for retaining our qualified and competent key employees, officers and directors, and certain consultants and advisors. The 2014 Plan Options have an exercise period of ten years from the date of issuance. At April 30, 2014, no options were granted under the 2014.

 

NOTE 9 – INCOME TAXES

 

At April 30, 2014, we had federal net operating tax loss carry-forward of approximately $253,464. The tax loss carry-forwards are available to offset future taxable income with the federal carry-forwards beginning to expire in 2032. Future tax benefits which may arise as a result of these losses have not been recognized in these consolidated financial statements, as their realization is determined not likely to occur and accordingly, the Company has recorded a valuation allowance for the deferred tax asset relating to these tax loss carry-forwards.

 

The difference between the expected income tax expense (benefit) and the actual tax expense (benefit) computed by using the Federal statutory rate of 34% is as follows:

 

   Tax Years Ended April 30, 
   2014   2013 
Expected income tax benefit at statutory rate of 34%  $(86,178)  $(5,201)

ITEM 9A.CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

As of April 30, 2014, management carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our chief executive officer and principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based upon the evaluation, our chief executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that, as of April 30, 2014, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level.

 

There are inherent limitations to the effectiveness of any system of disclosure controls and procedures. Accordingly, even effective disclosure controls and procedures can only provide reasonable assurances of achieving their control objectives.

 

Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

 

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Internal control over financial reporting, as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act, is a process designed by, or under the supervision of, the chief executive officer and chief financial officer, or persons performing similar functions, and effected by the board of directors, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with GAAP and includes those policies and procedures that: (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the Company; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP, and that receipts and expenditures of the Company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the Company; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the Company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

 

Because of inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

22
  

Our management, under the supervision and with the participation of our chief executive officer and principal financial officer, conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting using the criteria set forth in 1992 by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”) in Internal Control—Integrated Framework. Based on this evaluation our management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was effective as of April 30, 2014.

 

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

 

There were no material changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the fourth quarter of 2014 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Family Relationships

 

There are no family relationships between our officers and directors.

 

Other Directorships

 

Other than as indicated within this section at Business Experience, our sole director does not hold or has not been nominated to hold a directorship in any company with a class of securities registered pursuant to Section 12 of the Exchange Act (the “Act”) or subject to the requirements of Section 15(d) of the Securities Act of 1933, or any company registered as an investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940.

 

Committees of the Board

 

We have not yet appointed an Audit Committee or Nominating Committee. Until such time as appointments are made, our Board of Directors will serve in those capacities.

 

Codes of Conduct

 

On March 31, 2014, our Board of Directors approved (i) a Code of Business Conduct and Ethics for each director and executive officer, (ii) a Code of Ethics for Financial Executives for all officers with financial oversight responsibilities, and (iii) an Insider Trading Policy for each director and executive officer. A form of the Code of Business Conduct and Ethics, Code of Ethics for Financial Executives, and Insider Trading Policy is attached hereto as an exhibit and is included herein by reference. We will provide a copy of these policies free of charge upon written request.

 

The Code of Business Conduct and Ethics is applicable to all of our directors and executive officers. This code is intended to focus the members of our Board of Directors and each executive officer on areas of ethical risk, provide guidance to directors and executive officers to help them recognize and deal with ethical issues, provide mechanisms to report unethical conduct, and help foster a culture of honesty and accountability. All members of our Board of Directors and all executive officers are required to sign this code on an annual basis.

24
  

The Code of Ethics is applicable to all financial executives and any other senior officer with financial oversight responsibilities. This code governs the professional and ethical conduct of our financial executives, and directs that they: (i) act with honesty and integrity; (ii) provide information that is accurate, complete, objective, relevant, and timely; (iii) comply with federal, state, and local rules and regulations; (iv) act in good faith with due care, competence and diligence; and (v) respect the confidentiality of information acquired in the course of their work and not use the information acquired for personal gain. All of our financial executives are required to sign this code on an annual basis.

 

The Insider Trading Policy is applicable to all directors and officers. Insider trading generally refers to the buying or selling of a security in breach of a fiduciary duty or other relationship of trust and confidence while in possession of material, non-public information about the security. Insider trading violations may also include “tipping” such information, securities trading by the person “tipped,” and securities trading by those who misappropriate such information. The scope of insider trading violations can be wide reaching. As such, our Board of Directors has adopted an Insider Trading Policy that outlines the definitions of insider trading, the penalties and sanctions determined, and what constitutes material, non-public information. Illegal insider trading is against our policy as such trading can cause significant harm to our reputation for integrity and ethical conduct. Individuals who fail to comply with the requirements of the policy are subject to disciplinary action, at the sole discretion of the Company, including dismissal for cause. All members of our Board of Directors and all executive officers are required to ratify the terms of this policy on an annual basis.             

 

Indemnification

 

Section 145 of the Nevada Corporation Law provides in relevant parts as follows:

 

(1) A corporation shall have power to indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending, or completed action, suit, or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative, or investigative (other than an action by or in the right of the corporation) by reason of the fact that he is or was a director, officer, employee, or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee, or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, or other enterprise, against expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines, and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with such action, suit, or proceeding if he acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful. The termination of any action, suit, or proceeding by judgment, order, settlement, conviction, or on 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 reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had reasonable cause to believe that his conduct was unlawful.

 

(2) A corporation shall have power to indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending, or completed action or suit by or in the right of the corporation to procure a judgment in its favor by reason of the fact that he is or was a director, officer, employee, or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee, or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, or other enterprise against expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with the defense or settlement of such action or suit if he acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation and except that no indemnification shall be made in respect of any claim, issue, or matter as to which such person shall have been adjudged to be liable for negligence or misconduct in the performance of his duty to the corporation unless and only to the extent that the court in which such action or suit was brought shall determine on application that, despite the adjudication of liability but in view of all circumstances of the case, such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses which such court shall deem proper.

25
  

(3) To the extent that a director, officer, employee, or agent of a corporation has been successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any action, suit, or proceeding referred to in (1) or (2) of this subsection, or in defense of any claim, issue or matter therein, he shall be indemnified against expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection therewith.

 

(4) The indemnification provided by this section shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which those seeking indemnification may be entitled under any bylaws, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise, both as to action in his official capacity and as to action in another capacity while holding such office, and shall continue as to a person who has ceased to be a director, officer, employee, or agent and shall inure to the benefit of the heirs, executors, and administrators of such a person.

 

The foregoing discussion of indemnification merely summarizes certain aspects of indemnification provisions and is limited by reference to the above discussed sections of the Nevada Corporation Law.

 

Our Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws provide that we may indemnify to the full extent of its power to do so, all directors, officers, employees, and/or agents. Insofar as indemnification by us for liabilities arising under the Securities Act that may be permitted to our officers and directors pursuant to the foregoing provisions or otherwise, we are aware that in the opinion of the Commission, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.
