NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
SEPTEMBER 30, 2014
(Unaudited)
NOTE 1: BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The accompanying unaudited interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for interim financial statements and do not include all the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for complete financial statements. The information furnished reflects all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring items which are, in the opinion of management, necessary in order to make the financial statements not misleading. The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. The financial statements as of December 31, 2013 have been audited by an independent registered public accounting firm. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Company’s 10K for the calendar year ended December 31, 2013.
Non-Employee Stock-Based Compensation
The Company accounts for stock-based compensation in accordance with the provision of ASC 505, “Equity Based Payments to Non-Employees” (“ASC 505”). ASC 505 which requires that such equity instruments are recorded at their fair value on the measurement date. The measurement of stock-based compensation is subject to periodic adjustment as the underlying equity instruments vest.
Long Lived Assets
In accordance with ASC 360 "Property Plant and Equipment," the Company reviews the carrying value of intangibles subject to amortization and long-lived assets for impairment at least annually or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of long-lived assets is measured by comparison of its carrying amount to the undiscounted cash flows that the asset or asset group is expected to generate. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the property, if any, exceeds its fair market value.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The Company measures its financial assets and liabilities in accordance with the requirements of FASB ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures”. ASC 820 clarifies the definition of fair value, prescribes methods for measuring fair value, and establishes a fair value hierarchy to classify the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows:
Level 1 – Quoted prices are available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the reporting date. Active markets are those in which transactions for the asset or liability occur in sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis. Level 1 primarily consists of financial instruments such as exchange-traded derivatives, marketable securities and listed equities.
Level 2 – Pricing inputs are other than quoted prices in active markets included in level 1, which are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reported date and includes those financial instruments that are valued using models or other valuation methodologies. These models are primarily industry-standard models that consider various assumptions, including quoted forward prices for commodities, time value, volatility factors, and current market and contractual prices for the underlying instruments, as well as other relevant economic measures. Substantially all of these assumptions are observable in the marketplace throughout the full term of the instrument, can be derived from observable data or are supported by observable levels at which transactions are executed in the marketplace. Instruments in this category generally include non-exchange-traded derivatives such as commodity swaps, interest rate swaps, options and collars.
Level 3 – Pricing inputs include significant inputs that are generally less observable from objective sources. These inputs may be used with internally developed methodologies that result in management’s best estimate of fair value.
The following table sets forth by level within the fair value hierarchy the Company’s financial assets and liabilities that were accounted for at fair value as of September 30, 2014, and December 31, 2013:
Recurring Fair Value Measures | Level 1 | Level 2 | Level 3 | Total | ||||||||||||
September 30, 2014 | ||||||||||||||||
Derivative liability | - | - | $ | 310,492 | $ | 310,492 | ||||||||||
December 31, 2013 | ||||||||||||||||
Derivative liability | - | - | $ | 1,270,492 | $ | 1,270,492 |

NOTE 2: GOING CONCERN CONSIDERATION
These consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates, among other things, the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has negative working capital and incurred cumulative net losses since its inception and requires capital for its contemplated operation and marketing activities to take place. The Company's ability to raise additional capital through the future issuances of common stock is unknown. The obtainment of additional financing, the successful development of the Company's contemplated plan of operations, and its transition, ultimately, to the attainment of profitable operations are necessary for the Company to continue operations. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Future issuances of the Company's equity or debt securities will be required in order for the Company to continue to finance its operations and continue as a going concern. The Company's present revenues are insufficient to meet operating expenses. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that may result from the outcome of these aforementioned uncertainties.
NOTE 3: SALARY PAYABLE DUE
On January 5, 2013, The Company entered into an executive agreement its Chief Executive Officer, Jim Ennis. The agreement is for an initial term of 5 years, and provides for monthly compensation in the amount of $15,000. The executive shall receive bonus each year and shall be paid based on the performance of the Company each year ending December 31. The Bonus will be a minimum of 25% but not exceed 75% of Annual Salary. As of September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the Chief Executive Officer is due a total of $134,200, and $69,200, respectively, which is comprised of accrued salary expense that is unpaid and deferred based on the working capital conditions of the Company.
NOTE 4: RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
Related Party Debt
During the nine months ended September 30, 2014, the Company received working capital infusion from its Chief Executive Officer. The total related party notes with its Chief Executive Officer are $27,360, bore interest at 0% and are due on demand.

NOTE 5: NOTES PAYABLE

NOTE 7: DERIVATIVE LIABILITIES
Convertible Notes
On October 31, 2013, convertible notes of $120,772 and $32,767 were issued. On October 23, 2013, a convertible note of $75,000 was issued. On November 5, 2013, a convertible note of $25,000 was issued. The Company analyzed the conversion option of all the notes and Company considered derivative accounting under ASC 815-15 “Derivatives and Hedging” and determined that the embedded conversion feature should be classified as a liability due to there being no explicit limit to the number of shares to be delivered upon settlement of the above conversion options. The embedded conversion feature was measured at fair value at the date of inception and at the end of each reporting period or termination of the instrument with the change in fair value recorded to earnings. The fair value of the instruments was determined by using Black-Scholes option-pricing model, assuming maximum value.
The fair value of the conversion feature related to the “$120,722 convertible note” on issuance date was $241,544, including a debt discount of $120,772 and a loss on derivative liabilities of $120,772. On November 12, 2013, upon conversion of 98,293 of the $120,772 outstanding note, the derivative liability was revalued to be $543,474, out of which $442,319 was re-classified to additional paid in capital and $301,930 was recognized as loss on derivative liabilities. On December 31, 2013, the derivative liability was revalued to be $44,958, and a gain of $56,197 was recognized in earnings. On September 30, 2014, the fair value didn’t change, resulting in no gain or loss.
The fair value of the conversion feature related to the “$32,767 convertible note” on issuance date was $65,534, including a debt discount of $32,767, and a loss on derivative liabilities of $32,767. On December 31, 2013 and September 30, 2014, the fair value didn’t change, resulting in no gain or loss.
The fair value of the conversion feature related to the “75,000 convertible note” on issuance date was $187,500, including a debt discount of $75,000 and a loss on derivative liabilities of $112,500. On December 31, 2013, the derivative liability was revalued to be $150,000, and a gain of $37,500 was recognized in earnings. On September 30, 2014, the fair value didn’t change, resulting in no gain or loss.
The fair value of the conversion feature related to the “25,000 convertible note” on issuance date was $112,500, including a debt discount of $15,750 and a loss on derivative liabilities of $96,750. On December 31, 2013, the derivative liability was revalued to be $50,000, and a gain of $62,500 was recognized in earnings. On September 30, 2014, the fair value didn’t change, resulting in no gain or loss.
Warrants
On October 31, 2013, warrants to purchase 4,800,000 shares of the Company common stock were issued along with the convertible notes. As a result of the issuance of convertible debt, the conversion option of all other convertible instruments became tainted. Under ASC 815-15“Derivatives and Hedging”, all other tainted share settleable instruments must be reclassified from equity to liability. The conversion feature was measured at fair value at the date it became tainted and at the end of each reporting period or termination of the instrument with the change in fair value recorded to earnings. The fair value of the instruments was determined by using Black-Scholes option-pricing model, assuming maximum value.
